Dogfish Head Craft Brewery is "searching for a friendly solution" to its dispute with a Texas brewery that's using the 'Namaste' name that was trademarked by the Delaware-based brewery.
Owners of the Austin, Texas store Whip In celebrated the opening of their new, in-house brewery just a few months ago. While the opening of a new brewery in the Lone Star State normally would not attract any attention in Delaware, the name of the Whip In's brewery, Namaste Brewing, has raised eyebrows at Dogfish Head.
The Delaware brewery, which counts Governor Jack Markell among its fans, received a federal trademark for the Namaste name in the beer industry, covering both breweries and beer. Dogfish Head first brewed its Namaste beer as part of a fundraiser more than five years ago.
In a statement posted on their website, Dogfish Head's owners say they want to work with the Whip In to work out a resolution. "There is no point in having a trademark unless we actively defend it (and if we don't defend it this time, anyone can name a beer Namaste.)"
The general manager of the Whip In, Dipak Topiwala, compared the situation to "cultural imperialism" in a post on Facebook and claimed that Dogfish Head had sent the Whip In a cease-and-desist letter to stop using the Namaste name.
Dogfish Head disputes that, saying they have not taken any legal action or sent a cease-and-desist letter.
And what is Namaste? Well, there is the Dogfish Head Beer definition as seen on their website. The dictionary defines namaste as a Hindu expression of greeting or parting. The speaker holds his/her palm together vertically against one's chest.

- Geneva Centre for Autism provides clinical intervention, family support, training, information and resources, and is the only centre of its kind in Canada.
- As the leading source of education on ASD, Geneva Centre for Autism plays an important role in Ontario's initiative to enhance supports for individuals with ASD in the province. The Centre provides training to Teachers' Assistants in publicly funded school boards and authorities and to Resource Teachers/Consultants and Home Visitors in the child care sector in Ontario.
Who Uses Geneva Centre for Autism's Services?
- Geneva Centre for Autism provides clinical intervention services to more than 3,000 children and adults with ASD and their families in the City of Toronto and the surrounding area including Peel, and York Regions.
- Professionals, locally and internationally, contract with Geneva Centre for Autism's Training Institute for on-site training and consultations. As well, the Centre's biennial International Symposium on Autism attracts a large number and diverse group of people from around the world.
- More than 18,000 people access our services, training programs, and resources each year.
What is the Objective of Geneva Centre for Autism's Services?

Growing Demand for Service
- The number of people seeking information and services has increased dramatically in the last ten years. Currently, more than 60 new families contact us each month.

In the Knicks first matchup with Denver since the Carmelo Anthony trade, a hard-fought game ended in a 119-114 Denver victory. Ex-Knicks Danilo Gallinari and Al Harrington were the difference in the game. Carmelo Anthony came alive in the 4th quarter and overtime and finished with 25 points.
Here are some notes from the game:
- Despite his 25 points, Carmelo Anthony was off tonight. He finished 10/30 including a porous 1/7 from beyond the arc. The Knicks moved the ball well in the first half and that consequently came without Melo in the game. I will not say that Melo is a ball hog but it is very apparent that the Knicks system dramatically differs with Melo in the game. When he was in the game, the ball movement did stop. The garden crowd got on Melo, and deservingly so, for not passing the ball. Usually I defend Melo's shot selection but tonight I did feel like he was forcing shots and forcing unnecessary shots. As for his three point shooting, he needs to cut that down to about 4 per game instead of 7 or 8 shots. He is not a 3 point shooter and clearly is a better scorer when he drives to the hoop. His missed 3's are killing possessions right now and the Knicks cannot have that.
- Amar'e Stoudemire was a total non-factor tonight. Stoudemire took 9 shots tonight. In a game that went double overtime, Stoudemire took 1 shot in the 4th quarter and both overtimes. That shot was taken with 10 seconds left in the double overtime. The offense became "iso-melo" in the overtimes and that cannot happen. Stoudemire is a max contract "star". He cannot be excluded from the offense, especially when the Knicks need buckets. It seems that the Knicks seem to panic and lose their offensive system late in these close games and that can't happen. While moving the ball frequently, the Knicks controlled the first half. While playing stagnant isolation-orriented offense, the Knicks lost control of the game in the second half and ultimately lose the game. Stoudemire has to shoot more than 9 times a game, especially when he has less shot attempts than Fields, Shumpert and Douglas.
- Landry Fields is re-gaining his confidence. Tonight, Fields had 18 points on 8/14 shooting. He did have 3 turnovers and a late charging foul but for the 3rd straight game, he looks more confident and has been more productive. While the offense is struggling, Fields seems to be prospering as of late and is helping to keep the Knicks in these games. Even when the Knicks get production from Stoudemire, they'll need their non-max contract role players to contribute and Fields has been doing his job as of late.
- Douglas and Shumpert were also good tonight. Toney Douglas, 4/10 11 points, and Iman Shumpert, 7/16 18 points, were both pretty good tonight. Obviously neither of them is a true point guard, hence the problems the Knicks have had offensively this year, but they moved the ball well tonight. The Knicks got off to a very good start in this game moving the ball and then got away from it in the second. If the Knicks can start carrying over the ball movement to the second half every game, the offense will be a lot better. I think the two young guards showed a lot of good signs in terms of running the offense well tonight.
- Walker played a good game. Billy Walker was red-hot, no I am not joking, when he came off the bench in the 2nd quarter. He did play poorly in the 3rd quarter and was benched for the rest of the game. I do think he should have gotten a bit of run early in the 4th just to rest Shumpert or Fields but I have no problem with him sitting. Knick fans were calling out D'Antoni for not playing him, because Knick fans love to call D'Antoni out on anything, and I think that is wrong. Fields, Douglas and Shumpert all played very well tonight. Jeffries played well and Harrellson played well. I feel more comfortable with all those guys playing in a close game than Walker playing in a close game. I will say though, if Walker can continue to play like this then he will deserve to play more on this team but right now he seems to be in D'Antoni's dog house. Maybe D'Antoni reads this blog…
- Jared Jeffries and Josh Harrellson continue to show prowess on the defensive end of the court. Jeffries drew another charge tonight and recorded 3 blocks. Harrellson's defense was great all night and he recorded 6 boards. Ultimately as the bench changes in the coming years Harrellson will replace Jeffries but right now the duo gives the Knicks a very good defensive front court coming off the bench. They do not contribute as much offensively as you would like to see but right now both men are showing a lot of heart defensively.
- The two man game between Stoudemire and Anthony is nonexistent.
- Chandler only scored 8 points tonight. The Knicks need to get back to getting Chandler a couple dunks per game on back-screens. They seem to have gone away from that.
- Andre Miller is exactly what the Knicks do not have. I thought he was very impressive tonight.
- Don't you wish the Knicks had Mozgov? Moz had 16 points 7 rebounds tonight and dominated in the early going. We all know his potential as tonight he showcased his athleticism getting up and down the court. I really think he could have been a great piece on this Knick team as his offensive game was good tonight. The Knicks would have two 7 footers down low and would have a bit more presence in the paint than they currently do.
- I hated to see Gallo kill the Knicks. I was a proponent of the Melo trade although I was unhappy with how much the Knicks ultimately gave up. I knew Gallo had to go but that did not mean I was happy about it. I think he has the potential to be an all-star caliber player. He is a very proficient driver and has the ability to stroke from outside the arc. He killed the Knicks tonight with 37 points and 11 boards which was very sad to see.
- Iman Shumpert left the game in overtime. The Knick point guard cramped in both his hamstring and his back.

Marinated Artichoke Hearts Recipe
The bay leaves give these artichokes a subtle woodsy, almost piney flavor, and you can really taste the citrus and spice. They would be perfect in salads, as a pizza topping, or as part of an antipasti platter. This recipe yields three 8-ounce jars of marinated artichoke hearts. They will keep for at least a month in the fridge.
- Adapted from Salad as a Meal by Patricia Wells-

Oishei Foundation gives award to support St. Bonaventure/Hilbert Study
Dec 11, 2013, 05:00 ET
ST. BONAVENTURE, N.Y., Dec. 11, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- The John R. Oishei Foundation has awarded St. Bonaventure University and Hilbert College $250,000 to support the two schools' efforts to create a strategic alliance.
"We found the proposal from presidents Carney and Zane to articulate a vision that is exactly what Western New York needs in the realm of higher education: more collaboration, a greater sense of entrepreneurship, and better, more affordable opportunities for students," said Oishei Foundation president Robert Gioia.
The John R. Oishei Foundation strives to be a catalyst for change to enhance economic vitality and quality of life for the Buffalo Niagara region through grantmaking, leadership and network building. The foundation was established in 1940 by John R. Oishei, founder of Trico Products Corporation.
The two Franciscan schools located 60 miles from each other in Western New York announced in early October that they were embarking upon a feasibility study to determine whether there are significant opportunities to build upon their 20-year partnership. St. Bonaventure has offered graduate programs on the campus of Hilbert College in a weekend format for the past two decades.
St. Bonaventure president Sr. Margaret Carney, O.S.F., said the grant will enable the schools to make progress in their analysis of the strategic alliance alternatives.
"Through the generosity of the Oishei Foundation, we now have the resources necessary to hire a project coordinator with experience in this kind of a process. It will keep us on track and position us for the best possible outcomes."
Hilbert College president Dr. Cynthia Zane said the hard work is before them.
"We've spent the past few months sharing documentation and information with each other to determine whether there are any 'deal breakers' to prevent us from moving forward. With that behind us, working through the nitty-gritty of what a closer alliance might look like will require significant dedicated time, creativity, and persistence."
The boards of trustees for the schools held their regular December meetings last week. Both voted to continue with a second phase of feasibility study, while also creating opportunities for the boards to interact directly with each other.
The schools' ad hoc strategic alliance board committees and administrative teams will continue to investigate initiatives designed to improve student success and learning outcomes, realize synergies, address cost increases, and foster growth with the goal of presenting additional information to the Boards for consideration at their respective March 2014 meetings.
About St. Bonaventure
The nation's first Franciscan university, St. Bonaventure University cultivates graduates who are confident and creative communicators, collaborative leaders and team members, and innovative problem solvers who are respectful of themselves, others, and the diverse world around them. We are establishing pathways to internships, graduate schools and careers in the context of our renowned liberal arts tradition. Our students are becoming extraordinary.

Bluetooth CoD: Bluetooth Class of Device/Class of Service Explained
While testing some tools in Backtrack Linux I was working with some Bluetooth tools including btscanner, BlueProPro, bluediving, etc. and wanted to know more about the Bluetooth Class of Device/Class of Service also know as just Bluetooth CoD. Not only how it was formatted but also what exactly it meant and what it could tell me exactly about Bluetooth devices. In the end I feel I have a pretty good understanding of Bluetooth CoD and what it can tell you about various hardware devices even though it appears the standard for assigning CoD numbers is fairly loose most people appear to adhere to it somewhat. It should be noted that Bluetooth CoD is easily modified such as on Linux you can set it using hciconfig and thus could provide fasle information if you wanted to do so. Obviously not many people are going to understand this or know how to accomplish this so typically if you are scanning for Bluetooth devices you will be getting whatever the manufacturer has set when the item was manufactured. Below we describe more specifics about Bluetooth CoD including what the CoD hex means and some examples of Bluetooth CoD. Check out our Bluetooth Class list by clicking here.

The Harvest Festival Original Art and Craft Show takes over the Ventura County Fairgrounds for the 24th year this weekend.
All weekend long, artisans from Ventura to Northern California will be on hand selling their handmade originals and upcycled creations. They run the gamut from jewelry, blown glass, pottery, wood carvings, apparel, handmade furniture and more.
"People want something that they can't go to the mall and find on the shelf," says Nancy Glenn, manager for the show that launched 41 years ago in San Francisco. "A lot of these items are one of a kind. Even if there are 100 of something no two are going to look the same."
Over the years, the craft show has built a loyal fan base. It's so popular that its been rated as one of the top 200 in the nation by the readers of Sunshine Artist, a monthly trade magazine.
"We have the prettiest and best candied apples that are just to die for, we have (authentic Mackinac Island fudge vendor) Mr. Fudge, one of our oldest exhibitors and the most popular, and we have Slow Burn Glass Studio out of Oakland," Glenn said. "He's with us every year."
Specialty foods, strolling musicians and kids activities round out the weekend's event.
Find the Harvest Festival from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m. Saturday and 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday at Seaside Park at the Ventura County Fairgrounds, 10 W. Harbor Blvd. Admission is $9 for adults, $7 for seniors 62 and older, $4 for youth, ages 13 to 17, and free to those 12 and younger.
Adult and senior patrons who bring a non-perishable food item to support a food drive will receive $2 off admission.

Queenstown scenery 100% uninterrupted!
Skydive over Queenstown for a perfect view. The unique alpine backdrop of an NZONE Skydive has to be seen to be believed.
1 / 6
The unique alpine backdrop of an NZONE Skydive has to be seen to be believed. Queenstown's jaw-dropping scenery right in front of you; 360° views, 100% uninterrupted!
Try to relax as you are flown to 15,000ft above the dropzone, alongside Queenstown's famous Remarkables mountain range; with its jagged peaks sharply rising as if you could just reach out and run your fingers along them.
In the 15 minute scenic flight, you will fly around the edge and over the top of the Remarkables. In winter, be sure to keep your eye out for skiers and snowboarders looking very small below you. Standing at over 7600 feet, Double Cone, the highest peak of the Remarkables range, marks the half-way point of your ascent to your skydive altitude.
You won't be stuck behind a glass window for long as you shuffle your way towards the open aircraft door. While you're hanging off the edge of the plane, your skydive photographer perched on the outside edge with his camera ready to capture that reaction, try to keep your eyes open – there's nothing between you and the Earth, 15,000ft away.
The feeling of falling at over 200 kilometres an hour is difficult to describe and will give you complete sensory overload. But to get the most out of this intense, exhilarating experience, make sure to take a look around!
See the towns of Queenstown and Frankton far below with what seems like a small selection of buildings swamped by snow-capped mountains all around. Only a few months of the year will these deep mountain ranges be clear of snow.
See down the long, narrow blue of Lake Wakatipu, all the way to Kingston sitting at the Southern end of the Lake, 30 kilometres away from where you are.
Marvel at the sheer size of Lake Wakatipu as it stretches North, tucking in behind Ben Lomond, standing at 5735 feet tall, and reaching around to the right towards Glenorchy.
Look across from the tree-lined bay of Queenstown, where Walter Peak and Cecil Peak rise up. If you're lucky, you'll see the TSS Earnslaw steamship making its way over the lake, a trail of black smoke behind it.
Suddenly a cloak of silence falls over you – you're parachute canopy has opened. Still over 5,000ft over the dropzone, enjoy the floating sensation as you glide back down to Earth. You may find it easier to admire the view at this point as your lungs can finally take a big deep breath in.
This last five minute calm journey downwards will allow you to admire Jack's Point Golf Course from above and see The Remarkables rise high to one side as you gently come to a stop at its base. From NZONE Skydive's private rural airstrip, congratulate yourself on what you've just achieved as you high-five your Tandem Master who's brought you safely back to Earth. Take a look up and re-enact where you've just come from and what you've seen – WOW…

NZONE Skydive Queenstown
Embrace the Fear. Tandem skydive in Queenstown 'The Adventure Capital of the World' from 15,000ft with NZ Supreme Tourism Award Winners. Operating since 1990, NZONE Skydive was NZ's first Tandem Skydive operation. Achievement doesn't come sweeter.

MADRID (AP) Nicolas Almagro has withdrawn from Spain's Davis Cup first-round tie against Canada because of an injury.
The Spanish tennis federation said Saturday that Guillermo Garcia-Lopez, ranked 85th, will take Almagro's place in his debut for Spain's national team.
Media reports said Almagro, who reached the quarterfinals of the Australian Open, has a leg injury.
Garcia-Lopez joins fellow newcomer Albert Ramos and doubles team Marcel Granollers and Marc Lopez for the series in Vancouver on Feb. 1-3.
This means the five-time champions will be without their top three players, with Rafael Nadal injured and David Ferrer sitting out the round.
With Nadal out, Ferrer led Spain to last year's final and lost to the Czech Republic.
Canada will be led by 15th-ranked Milos Raonic.

TOKYO, Nov. 25 (UPI) -- The Japanese whaling fleet's annual departure for the Antarctic Ocean has been delayed, likely due to difficulties finding a refueling ship, Greenpeace said.
The country's Fisheries Agency, the Institute of Cetacean Research and whaling company Kyodo Senpaku declined to comment on the fleet's schedule or why the departure has been delayed, the Japan Times reported Thursday.
Wakao Hanaoka of Greenpeace Japan said the delay is probably due to problems securing a refueling ship.
"Kyodo Senpaku lost the refueling ship it had been using, and it is difficult to find a ship owner who will take the risk of being associated with internationally condemned whaling activities," Hanaoka said.
Senpaku may shorten this year's hunt if it can't find a new refueling ship, Hanaoka said.
The whaling fleet normally arrives in the Antarctic Ocean in late November to mid-December and returns in March, arriving back in Japan in April.
As inventories of frozen whale meat have increased in Japan, the country faces increasing international pressure to cut down on whaling.
In April, the International Whaling Commission submitted a proposal for Japan to decrease its Antarctic whaling quota from the current 800 whales to about 200 in 10 years.

One Of The Lightest Helmets We've Ever Seen
When we heard about HJC's all-new Super Lite Si-12 helmet, we just had to get our hands on one to test it out. The Si-12 features an innovative Composite Weave Shell that drops the weight of the brain bucket below three pounds. That's right, the Si-12 that HJC sent us weighed in at a paltry 2.98 pounds (we used the Pitney Bowes scale in the mailroom to verify the lack of heft).
It gets more impressive when you realize that the helmet is Snell SA-5 rated and comes with a fire resistant carbon interior plus a titanium vent on the top. Available in a variety of colors, the polycarbonate anti-fog faceshield boasts a 3D design that provides 95 percent UV protection and offers an anti-scratch coating as well.
All very cool features, but we decided to take the helmet to the track and give it a test session. It is remarkably light and almost feels like you're not even wearing a helmet at all, thanks in large part to how the interior padding is designed. Your face doesn't feel crammed or squished and the peripheral vision is excellent.
Designed using advanced CAD technology, the Si-12 features what HJC calls "ACS" or Advanced Channeling Ventilation System. This system allows full front-to-back airflow and flushes heat and humidity up and out, keeping you cool on those hot summer nights. The lighter weight and super ventilation system means less stress and heat on your head during races. Translate that into less physical exhaustion and the ability to focus more energy (physical and mental) on your driving.
The Si-12 comes in two colors, traditional white and the awesome-looking matte black (shown). HJC spent three years developing the HANS Device compatible Si-12. With the superlightweight design and great ventilation system, we think the $699.99 price tag is well worth it.

Students must earn the appropriate number of research credits to complete the degree and 6 credits of dissertation research post-candidacy.
Internship: No internship is required.
Language Examination: No language examination is required.
Preliminary Examination:
The preliminary examination is generally taken in the summer or fall of the third year, after all requirements for courses and research rotations have been fulfilled. As currently administered, the student is required to write a grant proposal in the format of an NIH pre-doctoral based on work s/he has performed in the laboratory or in other appropriate endeavors. The proposal will be evaluated by members of the Examining Committee. During an oral examination, the student will present a short research talk based on the proposal and be questioned orally about the presentation and related aspects of pharmacology. Each member will vote to pass or fail the student. In order to pass, a majority of the committee members must agree that the exam has been satisfactorily completed. Evaluators look for: (a) a breadth and depth of understanding of specific research areas; (b) a critical application of that knowledge to specific areas of Pharmacology; and (c) an ability to write technical prose in a manner consistent with pharmacological scientists.
Students who are preparing to take their preliminary examinations should confirm a time and date with the Chair of their Dissertation Advisory Committee and register with the Graduate Secretary. The student and Chair will receive confirmation of the time, date, and room for the examination.
Dissertation Proposal:
The dissertation proposal demonstrates the student's knowledge of and ability to conduct the proposed research. The proposal should consist of the following: (a) the context and background surrounding a particular research problem; (b) an exhaustive survey and review of literature related to the problem; and (c) a detailed methodological plan for investigating the problem. The proposal should be completed and approved as soon as possible after completing coursework. Upon approval, a timeline for completing the investigation and writing process will be established.
The dissertation is an original empirical study that makes a significant contribution to the field of Pharmacology. It should expand the existing knowledge and demonstrate the student's research abilities and mastery of her/his primary area of interest. The dissertation should be rigorously investigated; uphold the ethics and standards of the Pharmacology field; demonstrate an understanding of the relationship between the primary area of interest and the broader field of Pharmacology; and be prepared for publication in a professional journal.
The Dissertation Advising Committee is formed to oversee the student's doctoral research and is comprised of at least five Graduate Faculty members. Four members, including the Chair, must be from the Pharmacology Department. Committee compositions must be approved by the department's graduate committee. The Chair is responsible for overseeing and guiding the student's progress, coordinating the responses of the Committee members, and informing the student of her/his academic progress.
The Dissertation Examining Committee evaluates the student's dissertation and oral defense. This committee is comprised of the Doctoral Advising Committee and at least one additional Graduate Faculty member from outside the Pharmacology Department. The Outside Examiner should be identified no later than the beginning of the semester in which the student will defend the dissertation. The committee will evaluate the student's ability to express verbally her/his research question, methodological approach, primary findings, and implications. The committee will vote to pass or fail the dissertation and the defense at the conclusion of the public presentation.
If a student needs to change a member of a committee, the new member must be approved by the department's graduate committee and registered with the Graduate Secretary and the Graduate School.
Students who are preparing to defend their dissertation should confirm a time and date with their Dissertation Advisory Committee and register with the Graduate Secretary at least 15 days before the defense is to be scheduled. The Graduate Secretary will arrange the time, date, and room within two working days, and forward the appropriate forms to the student. After the Graduate Secretary has arranged the time, date, and room for the defense, the student must send to the Graduate School a completed "Announcement of Dissertation Defense" form at least 10 days before the defense. The Department will post flyers announcing the defense.

How to Celebrate Religious Freedom Day
by: Saadia Faruqi on October 29th, 2013 | 5 Comments »
Amidst news of violence, kidnappings, imprisonments and much more, the world quietly celebrated International Religious Freedom Day on October 27. U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry released a statement to mark this important ideal of the American consciousness with words that sounded well-intentioned and carefully thought out. He mentioned the experiences of the first pilgrims who established colonies in what was later to become the United States of America due to a desire for religious liberty and discussed the role this nation has played up till today in offering a refuge to all peoples facing persecution for their faith.
Senator Kerry talked about his commitment to protecting religious freedom throughout the world:
This is why we believe so deeply that governments everywhere must fulfill their responsibility to protect religious freedom equally for all and to ensure that those who claim religion as justification for criminal acts do not walk away with impunity.
While his statement was well-meaning, only time will tell whether the Obama administration is indeed committed to religious liberty in the international arena. Minority populations in almost every country in the world are facing danger, from Pakistan's harsh blasphemy laws punishing Ahmadis, Christians and Hindus for the slightest of imagined insults to Islam, to Malaysia's recentruling prohibiting non-Muslims from using the word Allah to refer to God. Diversity of faith and religious thought are scarce in countries such as Iran, where Christian missionaries are routinely jailed for distributing their literature and lashed for drinking communion wine. Religious and cultural heritages of any and all faiths considered heretical are destroyed by groups such as the Wahabis in Saudi Arabia demolishing some of the most sacred of Islamic sites and the Taliban in Afghanistan breaking down statues of a peaceful ancestral Buddha.
But for those who think that only Muslims are guilty of religious intolerance in this day and age, need only look across the pond in Europe to witness discrimination of religious minorities under the pretext of cultural assimilation. France and Germany have both banned the veil and other religious symbols, while many European countries now restrict ritualistic circumcision and slaughter. Attacks on mosques and synagogues are on the rise everywhere, including in the United States. Despite the announcement of Religious Freedom Day, misunderstanding, hatred, violence and extremism flourish in virtually every corner of the globe, and the position of U.S. Ambassador-at-Large for International Religious Freedom remains unfilled after the sudden resignation of Suzan Johnson Cook.
Secretary Kerry's statements may be well-meaning but to the average American, they mean little. After all, when governments meet, foreign policy consists of much more than pesky issues of religious freedom. At Cook's Senate confirmation hearing in 2011, Jim DeMint, then Republican senator from South Carolina, described the status quo as such:
When pressed, they tend to pat you on the head, and I'm speaking of my head, and say, 'That's important rhetorically, but frankly it's too messy to compromise a political or economic relationship".
So if the U.S. government, despite all its power and glory, cannot (or will not) pursue the ideals of religious liberty around the world, what hope is there for us to do the same? Actually, more than you may think. As individuals and citizens of this great nation built on the notions of plurality and freedom, we can take some of the following steps today to promote and encourage these ideals around the world:
- Contact your elected officials to ask them to vote against laws and propositions that may be discriminatory in nature.
- Get a group of like-minded people together to participate in grassroots community activities promoting tolerance.
- Join interfaith discussions or social action groups. The more we know about "the other" the less we can hate him or her.
- Bring attention to organizations within the U.S. and abroad that actively discriminate against religious minorities.
- Financially support organizations that are working towards education, poverty and peace building in poor nations. Extremism and intolerance flourishes wherever there is a lack of education and peace.
- Stay informed about issues at home and in international news. Go beyond the headlines to learn about issues and challenges.
- Write articles, blog posts and letters to the editor in publications of other countries. With the rise of the internet, much more is accessible to the average writer.
For those who are religious, I would add "pray" to the above list. Otherwise, I think these steps are within each American's ability. May religious freedom flourish in our times and the time of our future generations.

The road to readers' hell is paved with good intentions
Kylie van Zyl
Vivien Allen, Lady Trader: A Biography of Mrs Sarah Heckford
Second Edition, Protea Book House, Pretoria, 2010, Second edition (originally published 1979)
307 pp
It took me three months to read this book and it is only 302 pages long. The problem with reading the biography of someone you have never heard of before picking up the book, is that you have no pre-existing affection for the subject to cushion the discovery of their less endearing traits. I found Sarah Heckford to be a person whom I'm very glad I did not know. She is one of those people who is very enthusiastic and helpful but extremely tiring. Her favourite adjective was "comical" and her zest for causes must have been exhausting. This said, the subject of Lady Trader demands reluctant respect. Sarah Heckford's life reflects the combined effects of strong personality, a love of adventure and challenge, and a stiff dose of "Rule Brittania" zeal. Filtered through Allen's somewhat unenlightened lens, this makes Lady Trader a worthwhile, if occasionally uncomfortable and exhaustingly dense, read.
Sarah Heckford certainly led an interesting life, breaking free early on from the usual constraints that kept most Victorian women tethered firmly to the hearth. She then went on to make a living for herself as a single British woman in the late nineteenth-century Transvaal, publishing several books and a novel, and co-founding the East London Children's Hospital, along the way. If Allen's hagiographical account is to be believed, Sarah Heckford seems to have been made up of equal quantities of enthusiasm, altruism, commitment, and borderline philosophy, as well as a degree of self-confidence that occasionally leaves the reader grateful to have been spared her ministrations. Allen's account of the time Sarah Heckford spent at the East London Children's Hospital is especially arresting in this regard.
Lady Trader's great strength is that Allen takes her subject seriously and has great faith in her. Allen's interest makes Sarah Heckford interesting. This lends credibility to writing and research that would otherwise be open to criticism, and also serves to impress upon the reader the real kudos owed to Sarah Heckford, who spent her life never quite in accordance with the majority view. Also counting in the book's favour is its level of detail. Lady Trader provides a slice-of-life glimpse into pre-South African War Pretoria that will satisfy the general reader's interest in that era (although it is not likely to offer the expert any new insights). Perhaps more impressively, it chronicles the way in which a Victorian woman could, if possessed of sufficient tenacity, free herself from the usual constraints of housekeeping and childbearing.
That said, Lady Trader presents the twenty-first century reader with a couple of problems. The most obvious of these is the research on which the book is based. Allen appears to be unwilling to leave anything out, resulting in a density of detail and incident that can become exhausting. Conversely and rather frustratingly, Allen occasionally makes statements that need to be substantiated or at least further elaborated upon. This begs the question of whether some of the more detailed passages could have been redistributed throughout the book. Either Lady Trader should have been longer, or the editing process should have been more rigorous. The other pressing problem is Allen's occasional staggering lack of sensitivity for political correctness; even allowing for the book's origin in the late 1970s. This can leave the reader angrily reaching for a corrective pencil.
Even taking into account its problematic terminology and occasional frankly boring parts, Lady Trader is nevertheless an interesting book for the casual student of Victorian gender roles and/or late nineteenth-century South Africa. It functions equally well as an account of gold rush Pretoria, and as the biography of a woman who was unafraid to cause a raised eyebrow.

Today's Federal Reserve monetary policy announcement and upsetting economic data put selling pressures back on Wall Street, as bearish sentiment quickly swept over recent earnings euphoria. The central bank indicated that it will continue purchasing $85 billion each month of long-term Treasury and mortgage-backed securities, stating that economic activity has "paused in recent months". To add insult to injury, U.S. GDP came in unexpectedly at an anemic 0.1% decline, bucking economists' expectations of a 1% uptick [Be sure to check out the real estate news, trends, tips and tricks over at Dividend.com].
Global Market Overview: Stocks Pull Back On Fed And Lackluster GDP
After today's Fed announcement and lackluster GDP report, all three major U.S. equity indexes pulled back, closing in negative territory. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ETF (DIA, B) logged in a 0.34% loss, as its underlying index shifted further away from the psychologically-important 14,000 level. The S&P 500 ETF (SPY, A) fell 0.39%, while the tech-heavy Nasdaq ETF (QQQ, A-) slipped 0.21%. In Europe markets were mostly lower after Spain's fourth quarter GDP came in lower than expected. Asian equities, however, were mostly higher after Japan reported better-than-expected retail-sales data. Also bolstered by a weaker yen, Japan's Nikkei Stock Average rallied 2.3%.
Bond ETF Roundup
U.S. Treasury prices rose today, snapping a four-day losing streak, after the central bank said it would continue its massive economic stimulus. Yields on 10-year notes and 30-year bonds declined roughly 1 basis points, while short-term securities quickly swung to gains following the statement [see also Seven Simple & Cheap ETF Model Portfolios].
Commodity Roundup
Gold and silver futures took the spotlight today, as investors piled back into the safe haven metals following the Fed's announcement. Crude oil also closed higher today despite lackluster domestic growth data as investors became more optimistic about China's economy.
ETF Chart Of The Day #1: ( VXX)
The S&P 500 VIX Short-Term Futures ETN (VXX, B+) was one of the best performers today, gaining a whopping 6.17% during the session. Following today's Fed announcement and upsetting GDP data, this ETF gapped significantly higher at the open. VXX rose higher throughout the day, eventually settling near its high of $24.33 a share [see Risk On ETFdb Portfolio].

ETF Chart Of The Day #2: ( LBND)
The 3x Long 25+ Year Treasury Bond ETN (LBND, B) was one of the worst performers today, shedding 1.14% during the session. As the central bank announced its plan to continue to purchase $85 billion each month of long-term Treasury and mortgage-backed securities, this leveraged ETF gapped significantly lower. LBND slid sideways for the remainder of the day, eventually settling at $42.35 a share [see The Sky Is Falling Portfolio].

While All Nippon Airways in Japan took delivery of its Dreamliner last year, we've been waiting to find out which US-based carrier would be the first to have its livery emblazoned across the fuselage of Boeing's current flagship aircraft. As it turns out, that carrier is United Airlines.

So ... you have to, like, be stuck on Mars or something in order to be bored and fidgety? And what, exactly, was this "boredom and fidgeting" anyway? Why couldn't it just have been relaxing on the beach?
Given your resistance to even jokingly re-interpreting the comic, I find your earlier post explaining your username very ironic.
If you can see a punchline in the sentence to which I responded in your quoted message, good for you. I sure don't see it though - so I don't know why this means I'm resistant to jokes. I pointed out that the conclusion "they looked bored and fidgety, so they must not be on a beach" makes no sense, and the person who wrote it originally has responded multiple times without any indication that it was a joke.
Whether xspeedballx was joking is irrelevant. You've repeatedly railed against any interpretation other than the most superficial, while using a handle that seems to have an obvious origin but doesn't.

HARTSVILLE, S.C. – The Cobra baseball scored six unanswered runs en route to a 9-3 win over Carson-Newman on Friday (Mar. 14) in game one of their three-game South Atlantic Conference series. Coker improves to 13-8 overall and 6-6 in SAC play.
The Eagles of Carson-Newman took the early lead with a pair of runs in the top of the first, but the Cobras responded with three runs of their own in the bottom half of the inning to take a 3-2 lead. Another Eagle run in the third tied the game at three. The score stayed deadlocked for the next two innings until a two out, two run double by Ernie Kirkwood broke the tie and gave Coker a 5-3 lead.
The Cobras tacked on four more runs in the bottom of the seventh for a 9-3 advantage and the eventual win.
Matthew Prosser (4-2) earned the win on the mound allowing just three runs on three hits with four strikeouts in six innings of work.
Kirkwood was Coker's leading hitter. He went 2-for-5 with a pair of doubles and three RBIs, while Tyler Bires had three hits and drove in a run. Fico Kondla finished the day with two runs batted in, Shea Bell had two hits and scored a run and Sammy Song drove in a run and scored three.
The Cobras and the Eagles will complete their three-game series Saturday (Mar. 15) with a double-header beginning at noon at Coker's Tom J. New Field.

My second tour of duty as a Campbell County newspaper editor comes to a close this week, as I move on to a new opportunity that was just too good to resist.
As good jobs continue to evaporate in Campbell County, the unemployment situation almost certainly will get worse before it gets better.
Living within your means is a concept most people understand – at least until they get involved in government, it seems.
The results of this year's Campbell County elections are proof positive that locals are thirsty for change.
Today (Thursday) is election day in Campbell County — and oh, what a political season it's been for the staff of the LaFollette Press.
By State Rep. Dennis Power
To the editor:
The district's two public high schools are expected to graduate 355 students this weekend.
Here's the $1.5 million question: Who will a jury believe in the case between former City Administrator Billie Russell and the LaFollette officials she claims wrongfully fired her?
When District 3 Campbell County Commissioner James Wendell Bailey was arrested for DUI recently, the arrest report created more questions than answers.
A loyal LaFollette Press reader came into my office Friday and told me that gossip is one of the biggest threats to our community.
He's certainly right.
Last week, a LaFollette Press reporter received a complaint from Jellico's first lady, Doris Stiers, about its news coverage of the beleaguered town.
