Reporters falsely insert 'abortion' into Rand Paul speech
Media stories describe comments that never occurred
That the establishment media have a leftward lean is news to no one these days, but an episode of reporting on a speech by conservative Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., seems to push the envelope.
It seems the media trumpeted, and even headlined, the senator's references to abortion, even though he didn't make any.
The Associated Press reported about Paul's recent speech at the 10,000-student Liberty University in Lynchburg, Va., with the headline: "Rand Paul warns eugenics on horizon unless conservatives stand up against abortion rights."
Except that Paul didn't mention abortion in the nearly 18-minute address.
Then, other media outlets that rely on the giant wire service's reporting followed AP's lead.
In fact, the wire service dispatch was republished in the Washington Post, and other reports citing Rand Paul's connecting abortion to eugenics appeared in USA Today, Gawker and other outlets.
The reports on comments he didn't make are ironic in light of the fact that Paul has been under attack for alleged plagiarism in speeches and an article recently.
He has conceded he inadvertently made mistakes in crediting sources and has set up a new system for correcting the oversight.
In his Liberty University speech, what Paul did comment on was rapid advances in technology that raise privacy concerns for citizens and how that could embolden the surveillance state.
He also talked about genetic technologies and medical advancements and how going down that road will likely lead to genetic manipulation in mankind's s ongoing quest for perfection.
"Imagine a world in which disease and disability are eliminated: no meningitis, no Down's Syndrome, no cleft palate, no cerebral palsy. Man is able to select against these disabilities," Paul said. "Each individual's biological future can be predicted by looking at their DNA."
On the matter of genetic selection, Paul asked the audience: "It is easy to oppose eugenics at the hands of an omnipotent state. But will we have the strength of character to resist a world where eugenics is practiced voluntarily?"
"Will we be sorry when we eliminate the disabled? Will we be sorry when we eliminate those with premature deafness such as Beethoven?" Paul questioned.
Tony Lee at Breitbart.com accused the "media" of distorting Paul's address "by cribbing off an AP report."
"Though Sen. Rand Paul, R-Ky., never once mentioned the word 'abortion' in his address at Liberty University last week – a speech that caused MSNBC's Rachel Maddow to become apoplectic – the Associated Press immediately targeted Paul's speech as a crusade against abortion," he noted.
"Because so many outlets use the AP as source material, myriad writers simply cribbed from the original AP story, without watching Paul's speech or obtaining a transcript, focusing in on Paul's abortion position. Despite their own complaints about Paul's supposed plagiarism in a speech, the media made clear that its own work is often cribbed from different sources."
He noted someone at USA Today even went so far as to insert the word "abortion."
Lee quoted the USA Today story, which said, "Kentucky's Sen. Rand Paul warned a crowd at a religious college Monday that advances in biology combined with abortion could lead to a society that weeds out people deemed to have undesirable traits."
That was the rewrite of the source story, the Courier-Journal, which had said: "Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul on Monday warned a crowd at a religious college in Virginia that advances in biology could lead to a society that weeds out people deemed to have undesirable traits."
Wrote Lee: "Paul then proceeded to tell the story of [Christy] Brown, who was 'born with profound cerebral palsy' and only 'had control of his left foot.'" But he ended up an author and poet.
Paul's theme throughout the address was the wise use of technology, and the threat that follows when it's out of control. He cited the federal government's snooping on citizens and capturing every telephone call.
"We fought for over 800 years to restrain the state. From the Magna Carta on, our tradition has been to fight to limit the power of the state," he told the students. Then he asked them what it would take for them to give up those rights that have been so long established.
On eugenics, he said the future is bright with the possibility of eliminating handicaps and disease. But is that what's best, he wondered, if eugenics falls into the hands of those who want to control the population?
That, he suggested, would eliminate "our humanness."
He also got a couple of political digs in.
This trending, he said, "is not just President Obama's fault. OK, well, a lot of it is."
"It's not that we chose the wrong politicians, although we may have chosen a few of the wrong ones," he added.
He said, "What America needs is not another politician. What America needs is a revival."
"My hope, though, is that we don't lose our appreciation of the miracle that springs forth from tiny strands of DNA," Paul said. "Einstein said there are two ways we can look at the world: We can either look at life as if there are no miracles or look at life and see miracles everywhere.
"I choose the latter."

First-century Roman jurisprudence at its best models for us what every state should be for the Christian: the protector of religious freedom and the promoter of religious toleration. At Corinth, the arena for the final stage of Paul's second missionary journey, Proconsul Gallio's decision sets a precedent of shielding the church from pagan and Jewish attacks and opens a decade-and-a-half-long period of opportunity for the gospel's progress.
Paul, leaving Athens, travels fifty-three miles south-southwest to Corinth. Corinth was politically and economically the main city of Achaia, for it was ideally situated on the three-and-a-half-mile-wide isthmus between the Peloponnesian peninsula and the Greek mainland. Cenchrea was its eastern port city on the Saronic Gulf leading to the Aegean, while Lechaeum was its western port city on the Gulf of Corinth leading to the Adriatic. Thus Corinth (population 200,000) was a key commercial center at the juncture of north-south land and east-west sea routes. Having risen from ruins a little more than a century earlier, when Julius Caesar constituted it a Roman colony (44 B.C.), the city was now dubbed "wealthy Corinth" and had served since 27 B.C. as the capital of the senatorial province of Achaia. The cosmopolitan mix of "local Greeks, freedmen from Italy, Roman army veterans, businessmen and government officials, Orientals, . . . including a large number of Jews," lived in a "rip-roaring town" where, as Horace put it, "none but the tough could survive" (Epistles 1.17.36; Longenecker 1981:480).
To such a city, with all its peril and promise, Paul comes alone (1 Cor 2:3). Given that by the year 2000, we are told, there will be five hundred "world-class" cities (one million-plus population) and twenty-three "megacities" (ten million-plus population), we must have the same strategic eyes Paul had in choosing to evangelize Corinth.
Paul experiences Christian companionship in a common trade when he finds (NIV met) Aquila ("eagle") and Priscilla ("ancient or venerated woman"; this form is a diminutive of Prisca; compare Acts 18:26; Rom 16:3; 1 Cor 16:19; 2 Tim 4:19). Luke introduces Aquila as a native of Pontus, an area of north-central Asia Minor, bordering on the Black Sea, which formed an administrative unit with Bithynia. Aquila and his wife have recently arrived from Rome, having been expelled with all the Jews by Claudius (A.D. 49). Suetonius tells why--"since the Jews constantly made disturbances at the instigation of Chrestus" (Claudius 25.4). Writing seventy years after the event, Suetonius may have assumed "Chrestus" was simply a local troublemaker; however, the dispute in the Jewish community over Jesus Christus (the names would have been pronounced similarly) was the real issue. Through the Roman Jews' resistance to the gospel and an emperor's edict, God's sovereign care worked to bring Paul and this couple together.
Their common trade is "tentmaking," or better "leatherworking." Most tents in that day were constructed of leather, but the meaning of skenopoios was extended (as was the case with the English "saddler") to refer to an artisan who produced a variety of leather articles. While Jewish rabbis were bivocational so that they would not have to charge for their teaching (m. 'Abot 2:2), other traveling teachers in the Hellenistic world received remuneration for their lectures. In Greco-Roman culture the manual labor of the artisan class was despised.
Paul engaged in leatherworking to offer his gospel without charge and model a good work ethic (Acts 20:34-35; 1 Cor 4:12; 9:15, 18; 1 Thess 2:9; 2 Thess 3:8). He probably used his workshop as a place of witness, as some Greek philosophers used theirs as a teaching venue (Hock 1979). His departure from the workshop and exclusive devotion to preaching after Timothy and Silas's arrival from Macedonia probably shows that he did not view his leatherworking as essential to his evangelism strategy (18:5).
Today "tentmaker" missionaries enter "creative access" countries through secular employment when there is no way to enter as a full-time missionary. If they keep Paul's motives in mind, they will be able to see their bivocationalism as beneficial to the spiritual health of churches they plant. Not only will they model a work ethic that is essential to sanctification, but they will avoid creating wrongful dependency, for they will be offering the gospel of grace "free of charge."
When Timothy and Silas arrive from Macedonia, they likely bring Paul a monetary gift (2 Cor 11:9; Phil 4:15). Paul can now be exclusively devoted to ("engrossed or absorbed in") preaching (literally, "the word"; compare Acts 6:4). Bivocationalism may be a good pattern for evangelistic church planting, but for Luke it is not the best. To be free to be fully engrossed in evangelism is best. Paul's work now is to engage in an apologetic (reasoned . . . trying to persuade) and proclamation (testifying) that "the Messiah is Jesus" (so the word order in 18:4-5; compare 17:2-3).
The saints' practical protection now takes the form of a co-opted meeting place. The familiar pattern of the gospel's confrontation with Judaism--proclamation, division, rejection, separation, further advance--occurs here in rapid succession (see comment at 13:42). Jews "oppose and blaspheme" the gospel and the Lord Jesus Christ, who is at its center. In an acted parable, "shaking out his robes," Paul disassociates himself from the Jews for several reasons. He wants to be clear of the judgment that their blasphemy will incur. He wants them to know that their rejection of the message places them in the same position as Gentiles: facing judgment. He wants to declare his freedom from any further responsibility for their eternal destiny (Neh 5:13; Lk 9:5; 10:10-11; Acts 13:46, 51). Using Old Testament phraseology (2 Sam 1:16; compare Mt 27:24-25), Paul's declaration says as much. Their guilt and coming punishment are their own responsibility.
Through with his mission to the Jews here, though he will continue it elsewhere (see Acts 18:19), Paul will now focus on the Gentiles. His base of operations will be the house of God-fearer Titius Justus, next door. Again God has providentially protected his mission by giving it an ideal venue for harvesting Gentile God-fearers. That harvest is not long in coming: first Crispus, the synagogue ruler, holding that highly visible position of supervising sabbath services and maintaining order, and his entire household believed in the Lord (compare 16:15, 33). Then many of the Corinthians who heard him believed and were baptized.
Earlier Paul has received guidance and encouragement in visions from the Lord (9:12; 16:9-10). Now the Lord appears to him at night again, with a threefold command attached to a threefold promise, all expressed in biblical language (Deut 31:6; Josh 1:5; Is 41:10; 43:5; Jer 1:7-9):
Do not be afraid (literally, "Stop being afraid")/I am with you
Keep on speaking/No one is going to attack and harm you
Do not be (literally, "become") silent/Because I have many people
in this city
For Paul--or for us--to be afraid is to doubt the last promise of the risen Lord (Mt 28:20). Though Paul has territorially moved beyond the Macedonian call (16:9-10), the Lord is here to guide, telling him to keep on speaking. He promises that no one will attack Paul to harm him (see fulfillment of this in 18:12-17; NIV turns the purpose or result expression into a parallel promise: to attack and harm). Persecution would aim to stop the freely proclaimed, life-changing gospel message (compare 4:18-20; 5:18-20, 28-29; 16:21; 17:7, 13). Therefore Paul is not to become silent. The Lord has already chosen many people (see comment at 15:14) for his own in this city. The Lord's predestination (13:48) not only guarantees a fruitful ministry but demands that Paul responsibly fulfill his obligation to witness. And that he does, teaching . . . the word of God in Corinth for a year and a half.
In light of the vision of Revelation 5:9-10 and 7:9-10--"a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and in front of the Lamb"--it is right for us today to claim the promises and obey the commands of Acts 18:9-10 for the eleven thousand people groups that have yet to hear the gospel.
The Jews mount a united attack on Paul (4:1; 6:12; 17:5), bringing him into court (literally, "to the judgment seat"). Lucius Junius Gallio, the proconsul who hears the case, was the son of Spanish orator and financier Marcus Annaeus Novatus, who, after the relocation of his family to Rome, participated in the highest and most influential circles of society. Gallio's brother Marcus Annaeus Seneca, a Stoic philosopher, politician and dramatist, was tutor to the young Nero. Gallio pursued a career in government and between his praetorship and admission to the consulate served as the governor of the senatorial province of Achaia. A series of inscriptions help us date his tenure fairly precisely and give us good extrabiblical evidence for placing Paul in Corinth between A.D. 49 and 51 (Barrett 1961:48-49). Seneca described his brother's affable personality thus: "No other human being is so charming to just one person as he is to all people" (Naturales Quaestiones 4A, preface 11). Paul probably appeared before Gallio at the beginning of the governor's tenure and near the end of the apostle's stay in Corinth (A.D. 51).
The Jews bring an ambiguous charge. Who are the people Paul is persuading (better, "inciting")? Are they Jews or Gentiles? More to the point, are they Roman citizens? Against what law are they being incited to worship God? Is it the Roman law against proselytizing citizens for "foreign cults" (see note at 16:20-21; compare 17:7)? Is it the Jewish law as Gallio understands it (18:15)? Or is it an application of the edicts of Claudius that the Jewish people are to be treated as a collegium lictum--a legal, social and in this case religio-ethnic entity whose customs and practices are to be respected and whose lives are to be left undisturbed (Josephus Jewish Antiquities 19.278-91)? Possibly the Jews mean for Gallio to extend Claudius's edicts into their internal affairs. In their view Paul's teaching of the word of God is contrary to the Jewish law and creates an internal disturbance. In this sense he is violating the edict.
Before Paul can utter a word in his defense, Gallio decides not to render a verdict in the matter. God is fulfilling his promise of protection. Gallio evaluates how the charges relate to the spheres of necessary and discretionary jurisdiction. Using technical legal language (kata logon aneschomen hymon, "I would have been justified in accepting your complaint"), he says that some misdemeanor, open or violent wrongdoing, or serious crime, an offense involving fraud, deception, unscrupulousness (13:10), would be a legitimate matter for his jurisdiction. But the Jews have brought him controversial questions (15:2; 26:3) about words (literally, "a word"--the gospel message, 18:11) and not deeds, about names (messianic titles and Jesus' identity as the Christ, v. 5) and about [their] own law (a law-free gospel for the Gentiles, vv. 6-8). I will not be a judge of such things.
Here Gallio articulates two principles of church-state relations that, when lived out in any political structure, will pave the way for the gospel's unhindered progress. First, by saying that Paul is not accused of a misdemeanor or serious crime, Gallio declares Christianity's innocence before the state. Missionary activity is not illegal (contrast the Jewish leaders' assessment: 4:18, 21; 5:28). Second, by refusing to adjudicate an intramural religious dispute, Gallio declares that religious questions do not fall within the competence of secular state powers (Lk 20:25). For the fifties of the first century this was truly a precedent-setting decision. The decision of so eminent a proconsul would carry weight wherever such issues arose throughout the Empire (Longenecker 1981:486).
Yet there is a dark side to Gallio's lack of involvement. Not only does he eject the defendant and plaintiffs--possibly by physical force through the lictors--from the court, but he takes no action when the Jews begin to beat one of their own, Sosthenes. If Sosthenes is a Christian sympathizer (compare 1 Cor 1:1), then this breakdown of law and order within the collegium lictum is a warning that a state's hands-off policy in religious matters may simply make room for persecutors to continue opposing the gospel. Paul's instructions concerning prayer for state rulers should always be on our hearts (1 Tim 2:1-4).
Shielded by the state, Paul remains in Corinth for some time. Eventually, in full fellowship he left (better "said farewell to") the brothers and, accompanied by Priscilla and Aquila, sails for Syria. This refers either to his final destination or to eastern territory that included Judea.
At Corinth's eastern port city, Cenchrea, seven miles southeast, Paul cuts his hair, signaling the beginning of the end of a Nazirite vow (Num 6; m. Nazir). Evidently he had begun this vow after either the Macedonian or Corinthian vision, as a sign of earnest beseeching of the Lord for success in the mission to which Paul had been called (Acts 16:9-10; 18:9-10). Now in thanksgiving Paul ends the vow and thus recognizes that the Lord made good on his promises. In our life of faith we too may be confident that what God calls us to do he will enable us to complete (Phil 1:6).
The first leg of Paul's journey involves a flying visit to Ephesus, politically and economically the leading city in the province of Asia--in fact the third largest city in the Roman Empire (population 250,000 plus; see comment at 11:19 on Syrian Antioch, the second largest city in the Empire). Jews had been resident there since early Hellenistic times. Quite a number had Roman citizenship, and the Romans upheld the Jews' rights consistently from Augustus onward (Josephus Antiquities 14.228-30, 234, 236-40; 16.162-66, 171-73; see Stern 1974:152). Though Paul receives a positive response to his synagogue preaching (dialegomai, 17:2, 17; 18:4; see note at 17:2)--he is asked to stay longer--he makes a hasty departure. Though the time is short, perhaps he is still intent on getting to Jerusalem by Passover. The sea lanes opened on March 10, and in A.D. 52 Passover was in early April (Bruce 1988:356). Or he is hurrying there to complete his vow. In any case, he expresses his intention to return if it is God's will (18:21; Rom 1:10; 15:32; 1 Cor 4:19; 16:7).
Here Paul and we learn that personal desires and divine guidance so interact that all our planning will be implemented only if it is part of God's sovereign design. This makes us at once more flexible and more confident as we face our future, and more thankful as we reflect on our past.
In a very abbreviated fashion Luke describes Paul's arrival at Caesarea, his "going up" and "coming down" from Jerusalem (8:15; 11:2; 25:1, 6-7) after greeting the church there, and his return to Antioch (compare 14:26-27). Paul models considerate communication, promoting the unity of the body and the continuity of the mission. Today too, the stability of the gospel's advance will be only as strong as the lines of communication with praying and supporting sending churches.

Privatization of government information from the 1980s to todayPosted: June 22, 2017 Filed under: Conferences, Government Information, Libraries, Open access Leave a comment
Last week I delivered the keynote at the Westchester Academic Library Directors Organization (WALDO) symposium. A few attendees asked for the slides of my talk. This PDF includes the text and slides. Please note that this is an unpolished text, more akin to a draft than to a publication. I hope to develop this further in the future, focusing on the effects of privatization on access and the relationship (if any) between privatization and open-access. I welcome comments and thoughts on this topic.
This paper wishes to examine a phenomenon that has become practiced since the 1980's: the privatization of information services. We will try to understand the phenomenon by examining its extent and scope (which kind of information services are being privatized, and where) and its effects.
Contemplative PedagogyPosted: August 16, 2013 Filed under: Conferences, Contemplative pedagogy, Teaching 3 Comments
August is upon us, and for people like me, who live by the academic calendar, it always comes with a sense of panic: "I can't believe it's already August—I didn't do half of what I wanted to." I am way behind on all my projects, and deadlines are looming near. As always, it will be a race to the end.
This year, I put aside the first week of August for a week of Contemplative Pedagogy. The summer session was offered by the Center for Contemplative Mind in Society, a nonprofit at Amherst College with a vision of introducing "contemplative … practices and perspectives to create active learning and research environments that look deeply into experience and meaning for all in service of a more just and compassionate society." In the words of Executive Director Daniel Barbezat, contemplative practices help students arrive and be present in class, and provide a supportive environment for inquiry. Education, continues Dan, is an opportunity to cultivate a deep personal and social awareness, stimulating exploration of what is most meaningful to us as interconnected human beings.
I first heard about the Center from an interview on NPR's On Being with Arthur Zajonc, who was at the time executive director of the center. I was intrigued by much of what Arthur said about using contemplative practices to cultivate attention and as a mode to inquiry. Following the interview, I read Zajonc's book Meditation as Contemplative Inquiry and the book he co-authored with Parker Palmer, The Heart of Higher Education.
Of the many meditation books I have read over the years, this is the one I can relate to most. Zajonc contextualizes contemplative practices in both Eastern and Western traditions. There is as much Goethe and Rilke as there is Zen and Buddhism. There are taxonomies and epistemologies and jargon I can connect with to clarify experiences and actions. The book moved forward my personal yoga and meditation practices, and changed the way I think about my teaching. While I don't walk into class and open with a five-minute meditation (as some of the summer session participants do), I realized that much of what I teach tries to instill mindfulness in how students think about problems. Examples of this would include ethical approaches to crafting information policies, empathy and reflective exercises with regard to the reference interview, or discussion of social responsibility in collection development. So the next natural step was to attend the Summer Session at Smith College.
The setting:
Smith College, for those who are not familiar with it, is one of those storybook New England colleges clad in green lawns, mature trees, old buildings, and proud tradition. Founded in 1891, Smith is one of the Seven Sisters, and sits in a lovely college town with welcoming cafés, bookstores, and boutiques.
One day I was on line at the cafeteria for lunch when a young student started up a conversation. She looked at my name badge and asked what "contemplative pedagogy" was. I gave her the 40-second elevator speech, and then asked what she was doing on campus during summer. It turned out she was a junior, on campus as an instructor in some summer program for high-school students from Japan. She asked me where we where staying, and when I answered Chapin House, she said, "Isn't that a beautiful staircase? Did you know it was the inspiration for the staircase in the movie Gone with the Wind?" I didn't know, and I thanked her for that information. The student went on to mention some of the notable woman who had lived in Chapin House: Barbara Bush, Julia Child, Betty Friedan, Madeleine L'Engle, and a few more. I was awe-struck; my jaw just dropped in amazement. She looked at me in disappointment and said, "Oh, you never heard of any of them?"
The participants:
Eighty people attended the summer session. With few exceptions (one high-school teacher, a couple of administrators, a couple of Ph.D. students), all were faculty members at universities in the U.S. and Canada. Every type of higher ed institution was represented, from Ivy Leagues to a new small online for-profit university. Participants came from public universities (CUNY, Arizona State, Kansas State), private universities (Pratt, Syracuse, Kenyon), Christian universities (University of San Diego, Baylor), community colleges (Baltimore County, LaGuardia), and some uniquely focused schools such as Naropa, a Tibetan Buddhist university in Colorado. In terms of disciplines, most were from the arts, humanities, and social sciences, with backgrounds in psychology, counseling, English literature, music, arts, economics, sociology, global studies, and more. Several had attended summer sessions and other Center events in the past, but many were first-timers.
People explained that their situations vary greatly, and there are many ways they introduce mindful practices in their teaching. Some do so directly; they may incorporate a five-minute meditation or a walking meditation in the class. Other include such practices in their assignments. Some still don't do anything and have come there to learn, and others, such as myself, introduce mindfulness indirectly as a subtheme of the course.
I was saddened to hear that many people referred to themselves as being "in the closet" at their universities. They are discouraged from exploring contemplative pedagogy, and are unable to discuss this with their colleagues. I have to say that I really just don't get it. Shouldn't contemplation and mindfulness be the underlying foundation of all education? One participant told me that in her first career she worked in a policy think-tank, and ten years later became a university faculty member—she described it as moving from a think-tank to an unthink-tank. I was dismayed by the level of closed-mindedness at too many universities, and grateful to be at Pratt SILS.
The faculty:
I was thrilled to learn that Arthur Zajonc was on this year's summer session faculty, and was not disappointed. Arthur led a total of five sessions: a contemplative practice, a two-part presentation, and a two-part workshop. All sessions examined aspects of moving between focused attention and open awareness, holding both an open mind and an open heart. Arthur's presentations are rich in substance and culture, anchored in a deep intellectual history of philosophy and literature. They examine contemplative pedagogy in terms of epistemologies, quoting Parker Palmer, who said that every way of knowing is a way of living and every epistemology becomes an ethic.
There were two movement classes a day, the morning session with Yin Mei and the afternoon class with Paula Sager. Both focused on authentic movement, a practice that helps explore the authentic force that moves us. Yin Mei teaches choreography at Queens College, and is a dancer and choreographer. Her movement class had some vocabulary in common with Tai Chi, but was more expressive. It was also very energizing as a morning workout before the more academic classes. Paula is a dance teacher and researcher, and has conducted research on the phenomenon of witness consciousness in the development of the individual. Much of the work in her class is done in groups or with a partner, and consists of alternating roles. For me personally, the experiential sessions, which included the movement session and the contemplative practices, were where I gained the most insight into what contemplative pedagogy is and can be. Mirabai's compassion meditation was the perfect example of how meaningful witnessing and holding can be.
Both Raul Quinones, talking about antiracism, and Vaishali Mamgain, an economist specializing in immigrant issues, discussed having to live with complexity and contradiction, and recognizing the importance of action. We often do so little because we think we do not make a difference, but it is our responsibility to demonstrate to students, through the work we do together in class, that every action counts. Vaishali told how her rather traditional data-driven economic research took a turn toward the contemplative. As a freshly minted Ph.D. she found herself at the University of Southern Maine. The area had a large immigrant community, and Vaishali decided to research immigrant employment and labor issues. She gathered all the data, analyzed it, and wrote the article. When the reviewers returned their comments they praised the research questions and methodology, but one reviewer asked, Did you talk to any of the immigrants? Talk? What a reactionary concept! Economists don't talk to people, they analyze data. Vaishali went back to the immigrant center, began talking to people, and her life has never been the same. Vaishali now teaches about food politics in Southern Maine and helps students, many of whom come from fishing communities, to live with the conflicting pull of food politics, the humane treatment of animals, and their livelihood.
Some people accuse contemplative practitioners of escapism, but the discussion in the summer session surrounding information technology showed that nothing can be further from the truth. All participants recognize that technology is a part of both our own and our students' lives, and David Levy demonstrated some concrete examples of using technology in mindful ways. David, a professor from the Information School at the University of Washington, and thus the closest to me in terms of discipline, talked about the course he teaches called Information and Contemplation. Thinking, David explains, is a slow process, but we live in a world that is all about accelerated production and consumption. Through exercises and discussion, he shows students ways to think reflectively about their use of technology, and to use it in ways that can better themselves and their surroundings.
Most university faculty are trained in their specific disciplines, and few have an education in pedagogical theory of any kind. We teach hundreds of students over our careers, yet have never learned what is important in teaching and what works best. Contemplative pedagogy is as much about the pedagogy itself as it is about contemplative practices. As Dan cautioned, as educators we must lead gently and be confident in our own practices. For me, the inquiry continues.

Some Galveston beaches under advisories for high bacteria
Just in time for Labor Day, a handful of beaches on Galveston Island have posted advisories warning of high levels of bacteria in the water. Swimming is not recommended when bacteria levels are elevated.
This is not a new thing, as over the past few months these warnings have been issued off and on for Galveston Island's beaches, but over a holiday weekend they are reason to think twice about exposure to the beach water.
Galveston County Health District spokesman Kurt Koopmann said more water samples are being collected for testing today. He said that after heavy rains, bacteria levels rise.
"Whenever you have a lot of rain, things that elevate bacteria levels usually get into the waterways," he said, alluding to waste and road runoff. "Some months we have no advisories, and sometimes we have many."
These warnings are simply issued to inform the public of the elevated bacteria level so beach visitors can make an informed choice on whether to swim in the waters affected, the advisory states. Once elevated bacteria levels are detected, water samples are taken daily until the tests return to normal.
The Galveston County Beach Watch Program, in cooperation with the Texas General Land Office, developed and implemented Texas Beach Watch to monitor bacteria in coastal recreation waters adjacent to beaches that are used by the public and to notify the public if water quality standards for these bacteria are exceeded. The sampling and notification program helps to ensure the safety of Galveston County beaches and the safety of its visitors.
According to the Galveston County Health District website, samples are taken from the 52 sites on a weekly basis and tested for bacteria. Advisories like these do not mean that the beaches are closed, but that visitors should use caution.
"These are not at all unusual, and Galveston beaches fair very well in national reports," Koopmann says. He adds that none of these advisories are for flesh-eating bacteria, which have popped up in waters off the Louisiana coast.
These sort of advisories are issued to inform the public of the elevated bacteria level so each person can make an informed choice of whether or not they want to swim in these beaches. Water samples are taken daily until the tests return to normal.
The following beaches have advisories attached to them at this time:
Jamaica Beach South
Galveston Island State Park #6
Stewart Beach #1
Stewart Beach #2
East Beach/Appfel Park #2

About Boston
Thinking of moving to Boston? Here's what you need to know.
Boston is the capital of Massachusetts and home to around 650,000 people, many of whom take tremendous pride in everything from Red Sox baseball to their driving skills. Nicknamed Beantown, Boston was established in 1630, making it one of the most historical cities in New England. Bostonians experience four distinct seasons, which can involve brutal winters as well as hot summers.
Who's There?
The city's vast student population gives Boston a young, vibrant energy. There are over 50 colleges in the Boston area, so the student population is around 250,000. Education and medicine—Boston is a leader in medical innovation with hospitals like Massachusetts General Hospital and Brigham and Women's Hospital—are, by far, the area's top two industries for both men and women. Over 60 percent of the area's adults have completed some college.
What's Around Boston?
Picturesque Back Bay is filled with shops, restaurants and other points of interest like the Boston Public Library and Copley Square, while colonial Beacon Hill boasts a village-like community and expensive real estate. The South End, with its brownstones and some of the city's best restaurants. is very LGBTQ-friendly, and the Italian-flavored North End is Boston's oldest neighborhood and the site of Paul Revere's former home. Another nickname for Boston is "the Walking City" for its proud population of pedestrian commuters. Bostonians also like to drive, though parking can be difficult. However, car-sharing programs make this a bit easier. Thanks to Boston Bikes, the city has many well-thought-out bike routes, and the Massachusetts Bay Transit Authority, affectionately known as "The T," provides efficient subways, buses, commuter trains and even ferries.
What Do You Do In Boston?
Boston's many neighborhood parks come alive with everything from live music to big-screen movies. The Urban Wilds is a series of natural ecosystems worth exploring, plus the city has two golf courses. Boston loves large-scale events—like the Boston Marathon, Head of the Charles Regatta and Boston Pride Festival—which happen year-round. The city's beloved Red Sox baseball team plays inside the country's oldest arena: Fenway Park.

Keeneland Barn Notes—Thursday, April 2, 2009
Adele Dilschneider's Terrain, runner-up in last fall's Lane's End Breeders' Futurity (G1), is scheduled for a five-furlong work on Saturday according to trainer Al Stall Jr.
"That's the plan right now and he'll work in company," Stall said of Terrain, who had worked a half-mile in :48 in company last Sunday.
Under exercise rider Keith Harris, Terrain galloped a mile and a half on the main track Thursday morning.
Among the other Toyota Blue Grass hopefuls on the track Thursday morning were Charitable Man, who galloped a mile and a half under exercise rider Pat Correa, and Cliffy's Future galloped the same distance with trainer Darrin Miller up. Charitable Man is tentatively slated to work on Sunday and Cliffy's Future early next week.
Barclay Tagg said Elizabeth J. Valando's homebred Hello Broadway would make his next start at Keeneland either in an allowance race or in the Toyota Blue Grass.
"There's an allowance race on the 10th that I'm going to run him in," said Tagg. "If that doesn't go, I might run in the Blue Grass, but I'm not sure yet. I'd like to run him in an allowance race and try to get a little easier spot for him to give him some confidence back. He's just had a couple of bad races; I don't think they were his fault, but he's had a couple of bad races. If (the Toyota Blue Grass is) a real, real tough race, I probably won't go in it."
A half-brother to 2007 Wood Memorial (G1) winner Nobiz Like Showbiz, Hello Broadway has one win in five starts in his career. The Broken Vow colt ran second in both the Hutcheson (G2) at Gulfstream in January and the Nashua (G3) at Aqueduct last November. He was seventh in his most recent race, the Tampa Bay Derby (G2) on March 14.
Tagg, who will have 16 horses at Keeneland, said assistant trainer Robin Smullen was arriving in Lexington today and would be here over the weekend while he returns to New York to run Tale of Ekati in Saturday's Carter Handicap (G1) at Aqueduct. On Friday, Tagg and Smullen plan to visit their 2003 Kentucky Derby (G1) and Preakness (G1) winner, champion Funny Cide, at his new home at the Hall of Champions at the Kentucky Horse Park.
Peachtree Stable's Boleyn arrived at Keeneland from New York on Wednesday afternoon and galloped once around the track on Thursday morning in preparation for Saturday's Ashland (G1). The daughter of Proud Citizen is coming off a second-place finish in a March 13 allowance race at Aqueduct in her 2009 debut. In her final two races of 2008, she finished second in both the Blue Hen at Delaware Park and the Demoiselle (G2) at Aqueduct.
"We're aiming for the fences," said Tristan Barry, assistant to trainer Todd Pletcher, about Boleyn racing in the Ashland against the likes of champion Stardom Bound. "She's a longshot, but she tries hard every time."
Boleyn, who is 15-1 in the morning line, will break from the outside nine post with Jamie Theriot aboard.
Bred in Kentucky by Al and Joyce Meek, Boleyn is a half-sister to stakes winner Magnificent Val. Her second dam is Grade 1 winner Magnificent Lindy. Boleyn was sold for $115,000 at the 2007 Keeneland September Yearling Sale. Katalpa Farm, agent, consigned the filly, who was purchased by Eisaman Equine.
Ike and Dawn Thrash have had one starter in the Ashland Stakes (G1) in Dawn After Dawn two years ago and that filly came within a length of pulling off a 54-1 shocker. In Saturday's 72nd running of the Ashland, Third Dawn figures to be a much shorter price when she goes postward against eight other 3-year-olds, including champion Stardom Bound.
Trained by John Sadler, Third Dawn comes into the Ashland off a second-place finish in the March 7 Santa Anita Oaks (G1) in which she was beaten a nose by Stardom Bound.
"We threw a little scare into Stardom Bound," Sadler said with a laugh of Third Dawn, who entered the Santa Anita Oaks off just a maiden win. "She had showed she had ability all along, but things just didn't break right in her races. I was surprised she hadn't won races one, two or three."
Alan Garcia will ride Third Dawn and break from post position three. Third Dawn galloped a mile and a half Thursday morning on the main track with exercise rider Dana Barnes up.
Sadler did not train Dawn After Dawn for the 2007 Ashland when she finished third behind Christmas Kid and Octave.
"We did not get her until later that year when they sent her to California, because she ran well on synthetic surfaces," Sadler said. "She won the La Canada and then I came back here with her last year and she ran third to Ventura in the Vinery Madison."
Third Dawn never has raced on a conventional dirt track and Sadler is hoping the daughter of Sky Mesa will show enough Saturday to merit a shot in the Kentucky Oaks (G1) on May 1 at Churchill Downs.
"Right now, we are just taking it one race at time," Sadler said.
Trainer Craig Dollase has been in this spot before.
In 2003, he saddled Elloluv to victory in the Ashland Stakes (G1) for owner J. Paul Reddam with Robby Albarado in the saddle.
On Saturday, he will send out Nan for Reddam with Albarado up as she tries to improve on a couple of narrow losses at Santa Anita to champion Stardom Bound.
"She has had troubled trips in her last two races," Dollase said of fourth-place finishes in the Las Virgenes (G1), in which she was beaten 2 ¼ lengths, and the Santa Anita Oaks (G1), in which she was beaten a neck.
Outfitted with blinkers as is her norm, Nan galloped a mile and a quarter on the main track under exercise rider Dale Baze.
Nan was purchased by Reddam after she made her racing debut in a turf sprint last July at Saratoga.
"They liked her first race and it looked like she would be able to route," Dollase said. "Mark Hennig had her in New York and then she was shipped to us in California because they wanted to try her on synthetic tracks."
Nan broke her maiden in her first synthetic track try and followed that with a third-place effort in the Grade 2 Santa Ynez.
Dollase is hoping on this trip that Nan will have a chance to get reacquainted with the dirt, a surface on which she has raced just once in a ninth-place finish at Saratoga.
"I hope she is not just a Polytrack horse," Dollase said. "If she runs well Saturday, we will go right over (to Churchill Downs for the Grade 1 Kentucky Oaks) to train over the track. That's what I did with Elloluv."
The question was asked a few mornings ago in the Keeneland barn area: Who was the last horse to win six Grade 1 races in a row?Quick research seems to indicate the answer is 2006 Horse of the Year Invasor (ARG), who compiled his streak from May 19, 2006, beginning with the Pimlico Special, through March 31, 2007 with the Dubai World Cup.
Stardom Bound enters Saturday's Ashland having won five consecutive Grade 1 races, starting with the September 1 Del Mar Debutante and running through the March 7 Santa Anita Oaks.
Stardom Bound is listed as the 6-5 morning line favorite for the Ashland and will break from post position seven with regular rider Mike Smith up. On Thursday morning, Stardom Bound galloped a mile and a half on the main track with Nuno Santos up.
During his streak, Invasor also won the Suburban Handicap, Whitney Handicap, Breeders' Cup Classic and Donn Handicap. He did not get a chance for a seventh consecutive Grade 1 as he was injured before the 2007 Suburban and retired.
In other Ashland news, Dream Empress, winner of the 2008 Darley Alcibiades, jogged a mile and galloped a mile under exercise rider Jessica Stith. Hooh Why, third behind Stardom Bound in the Santa Anita Oaks in her most recent start, galloped a little more than a mile on the main track.
Farnsworth Stables' Gozzip Girl, winner of the Grade 3 Herecomesthebride on turf at Gulfstream Park in her most recent start, is scheduled to arrive at Keeneland on Thursday from Florida. The Tom Albertrani trainee will be stabled in Barn 1.
Halo Farms and Three Sisters Thoroughbreds' Evita Argentina worked six furlongs in 1:13.40 with exercise rider Dana Barnes up.
"I'm very happy with it; it was a good work," trainer John Sadler said of the move that served as the final major drill for Wednesday's Beaumont (G2) over the Beard Course of seven furlongs, 184 feet. "I got her in 1:13 and 4."
A three-time stakes winner sprinting, including a victory over the boys in the Grade 2 San Vicente, Evita Argentina could extend her Kentucky stay with a big effort Wednesday.
"If she runs big in the Beaumont, we may stay for the big one," Sadler said, referring to the Kentucky Oaks (G1). "It would be a being in the neighborhood kind of thing."
For Barnes, a longtime exercise rider for Bob Baffert, the trip to Keeneland was her first in a long time.
"Usually with Bob, we'd go straight to Churchill Downs," Barnes said. "I think the last time I was here was with Silverbulletday."
Silverbulletday, a finalist for induction this year into the Racing Hall of Fame, was a three-time stakes winner at Keeneland. She won the Alcibiades in 1998, the Ashland in 1999 and the Doubledogdare in 2000.
On Friday, opening day of Keeneland's 2009 spring meeting, Keeneland will expand its two existing daily doubles to rolling doubles, beginning with the first race and continuing through the day's card.
Meanwhile, Keeneland again will offer popular wagers such as the 10-cent superfecta, 50-cent trifecta and $1 Super High Five. The Super High Five requires horseplayers to pick the first five finishers in the final Keeneland race of the day.

I love stuff like this too–my whole business is built around stuff like this. Love your blog, by the way.
There is something magical in the atmosphere of this shop.
Possibly in that there is over 100 years of history, and the knowledge that should original customers still be alive, they would still be purchasing their shoes from Lobbs – I am sure!
And to the blogger who wrote:
"How do we keep the wonderful craftsmen around us?…
Modernity killed the craftsmen"
…. I am investigating this in my dissertation this year so you may be interested in contacting me, I would love to hear your thoughts on the topic!
This also applies to any others of you who read this.
i too absolutely love stuff like this

A Step By Step Analysis of a Genealogy Search
This time I realized I'd never gotten around to searching my aunt's family. My Aunt Marge was married to my father's brother. I knew her maiden name was Cahoe, her father was Norman Cahoe, her mother Jessie McMillan, and the Cahoe family were from Guelph Ontario, but that was it. I'd never asked my mother about her, and had not searched for more details. I don't search back very many generations on collateral spouse lines but I do like to know a little more about each spouse.
Finding Norman Cahoe
I immediately headed to Ancestry.com where I found Norman Cahoe easily in the 1911 census for Guelph Ontario. He was 25 years old, born in Ontario in August 1885 according to the census) and living with his 58 year old widowed mother Susan. Susan gave her birthdate as July 1852 and place of birth as Ontario. This was easy and I was confident the rest of my search would go well. I was wrong.
The next two pieces of information were also found fairly quickly. One was a Border Crossing Record for Susan and Norman dated July 1910. The index on Ancestry.com showed they were crossing at Vermont which puzzled me but a look at the image revealed that in fact they crossed at Port Huron Michigan. An interesting and misleading error with Ancestry's indexing! Susan was said to be a 60 year old widow (which didn't match the 1911 census but as we all know, ages can vary from one record to another). Norman was a single man aged 28 and they were on their way to Detroit. They listed their nearest relative in Canada as Susan's daughter Elizabeth Cahoe Swindlehurst. Exciting - now I had another family member and what looked like her married name.
Finding Susan's Death Record
Leaving that record for a bit, I continued my search for Susan and Norman in earlier records. I hoped to find Norman's father's name. But no luck. I did however find Susan's death registration and now my quest became more challenging. Susan died in Guelph in 1926. Her son Norman was the informant and she was listed as living in the same home as him. A researcher might assume that Norman would know quite a bit about his mother since he had lived with her for so long. And in fact he'd provided her father's full name (John Cowan born Ireland) as well as her mother's (Mary Thompson born Scotland).
But he'd also given her age as 89 years old and her date of birth as July 31, 1836. That was very different from the census and Border Crossing record, but it was definitely the right Susan Cahoe. But her date of birth in the census was 1852. According to the Border Crossing Record it was circa 1850. And now her death record (with info provided by her son) gave 1836. That seemed wrong to me because it would make Susan almost 50 when Norman was born. Not impossible but something to keep in mind as I continued my search.
The Quest for Susan Becomes More Intriguing
And now my search became more difficult. Try as I might I could not find Susan or Norman or Elizabeth (whose age I didn't know) in 1901, 1891, 1881 or earlier census records. I used wildcards. I used Susan* to allow for Susannah or Sussan. I tried Norm* to allow for a shortened name. I tried C*ho* as the surname. Finally after many hours of searching I decided to use only first names, no surnames, and Norman's birth year plus/minus two. Bingo. There they were in the Guelph 1891 census as Kehoe. Kehoe? My heart skipped a beat. The Kehoe family first intermarried with my McGinnis family in 1831 - almost 100 years earlier.
The Kehoe (also spelled Keogh) family were among the first Irish settlers in Puslinch Township (very near Guelph). They had lived briefly in New York where two Keogh sisters met and married two McGinnis brothers. Then the families settled in Puslinch. I was, as the British say, gob-smacked. I never realized that Aunt Marge connected to this family. I'm quite sure she had no idea either.
Contradictions Galore
What else did I find? Many more confusing and contradictory details from various records came to light. Taking them all and studying and analyzing them carefully provided me with new clues and leads. I still have more to find but here's a summary of what I've found so far:
1900 Census Detroit Michigan - Sarah [sic] Cahoe, 51 born July 1848 [yet another year of birth!!], widow, had 4 children, 2 are living, father born Ireland, mother Scotland, immigrated 1890, says she is naturalized [note to self - hunt for her naturalization record] living with son Norman born August 1883. He says his father was born New York and mother in Ontario. Another clue revealing father's place of birth
1891 Census Guelph Ontario - William KEHO [sic] age 47 b USA, father born USA, mother born England with wife Susan, 46 [giving estimated year of birth as 1845], daughter Amy (or Anny) age 22 born Ontario and son Norman 7 born Ontario.
So it appears William Kehoe died between 1891and 1901. I have not been able to find his death in Ontario or Michigan.
Birth Records Ontario revealed several children born in Guelph between 1881 and 1898 to James Swindlehurst and Elizabeth Gaven, with one record showing Elizabeth's surname as (drum roll please!) Keogh in brackets with the surname Gaven written above. Their first child was named Susannah and was almost certainly in honour of Elizabeth's mother. But why the surname Gaven?
Marriage Records Ontario revealed a marriage in 1881 for James Swindlehurst and Elizabeth Gavin [sic] who said she was 21 years old, born in Eramosa Township to parents John & Susanna Gavin. Bingo! Susan(nah) was apparently married twice - to John Gavin/Gaven/Gavan and then to William Kehoe/Cahoe/Keogh. And if daughter Elizabeth was born circa 1861 then Susan(nah) was surely at least 16 years old, so I might assign a tentative year of birth of 1845 or earlier.
I love it when a genealogy search has so many twists and turns you feel like you're in a maze and can't quite figure out which turn to take next!
1881 Census Guelph - William Kehoe age 37, wife Susan 38 with 3 daughters: Elizabeth 21 (yay - she is the Elizabeth who married James Swindlehurst), Annie age 14 (she must be the child Amy/Anny age 22 in 1891) and another daughter age 7 whose first name is very difficult to read. It looks like Teno and I've not yet figured out exactly what the name says.
1871 Census Eramosa - Susan Gavan age 28 with daughter Angelina age 3. Is this the Susan I am looking for? Who is Angelina? Where is Elizabeth who should be 10 years old. Where is her husband John Gavan?
Ontario Death Records - John Gavin died August 1875 in Eramosa Township. He was age 77 and born Ireland. Is this the husband of Susan?
Still Searching
So I am still on the trail of the elusive Susan.
Here is what I have found:
* 1926 Death in Guelph
* 1911 Census Guelph, widow with son Norman
* 1910 Going to Detroit Michigan with son Norman
* 1900 Census Detroit Michigan, widow with son Norman
* 1891 Census Guelph with husband William Kehoe and 2 children (1 son, 1 daughter)
* 1881 Census Guelph with husband William Kehoe and 3 daughters
* 1881 Marriage in Guelph of daughter Elizabeth Gavan to James Swindlehurst
Where oh where is Susan before 1881??!!
Here is what I have not found yet:
* Death of William Kehoe between 1891 and 1901, probably in Ontario or Michigan
* Susan Cowan/Gavan/Kehoe in 1851, 1861 and 1871 census
* Deaths of John Cowan and/or Mary Thompson Cowan (Susan's parents)
* Census records for John Cowan and wife Mary (Susan's parents)
* Census records before 1881 for William Kehoe who was born circa 1846 New York
* Birth record for Norman Cahoe 1883-1885 in Ontario
* Marriage record for William Kehoe/Cahoe/Keogh and Susan Cowan Gavan circa 1875-1883
* Death record for Anny/Amy Gavan born circa 1869 Ontario

Great post and pretty easy to follow this one! Although I did get a bit confused by the daughter Elizabeth who married, it all came together in the end. Thanks for sharing! I wonder why the move from Guelph to Detroit then back to Guelph?
isn't Teno - Tina? I've seen it transcribed like that a few times - could be short for Christina.
and Annie & Angelina are the same person...
- Genealogy Blogger said...
@Anonymous - Annie and Angelina could be one person BUT here is a gal called Annie Angelina Gavan born right time and place to be the one in the 1871 census -- and she is getting married in Carleton in 1891 (a long way away!) Name: Annie Angelina Gavin
Birth Place: Guelph
Age: 24
Estimated Birth Year: abt 1867
Father Name: William Gavin
Mother Name: Susan Hambridge
So if we believe the marriage record
she is the daughter of the wrong Gavan and Susan.. She dies in 1896 in Carleton.
yes, I saw that Annie Angelina too.
born in Rockwood or Guelph & buried in Beechwood Cemetery.
Also - I think your Susan's father's name might be Gowan, not Cowan, but it's hard to tell.
Teno might be Georgina Lillias Gavin, born 10 Jul 1873 in Eramosa Twp. Not sure if there ever was a John Gavin, other than Susan's father.
- Genealogy Blogger said...
@Anonymous - Thank you this is VERY interesting! (The illegitimate birth of Georgina) Now I'm left with many more questions and ideas to mull over and try to track down. My head is spinning but it's all good!

I love the steps that you have shared with us in your search. You have to love the twists and turns that our research can bring. There always seems to be more questions, than answers, and hopefully you will break through and find the documents you need to help.
I have come across a very similar situation with 2 of my direct ancestors and it can get very frustrating at times through the years as I keep searching, and yet still can't come up with the information that I seek.
Best of luck with this branch of your family tree.

Antarctic started melting before global warming hysteria, study says
To conduct their research polar scientists from Britain, Australia and France have collected a massive ice core from James Ross Island on the northernmost tip of the Antarctic Peninsula.
The layers of the 364 meters long core allowed the scientists to trace climate patterns dating back 15,000 years.
All their findings have been published in the Nature journal.
According to the research the Antarctic Peninsula warmed by about 6°C as it emerged from the last ice age, culminating in a temperature 11,000 years ago that was 1.3°C warmer than today's average.
During that period the Antarctic Peninsula ice sheet was shrinking and some of the surrounding ice shelves also retreated.
The warming was followed by a cool down period with the temperature reaching its minimum some 600 years ago.
Another warm period followed, which intensified over the last 50–100 years, said Robert Mulvaney from the British Antarctic Survey.
The scientists are more concerned with the unusual speed of the warming than with the actual temperatures.
If the rapid warming we are now witnessing now continues, ice shelves further south along the Peninsula that have been stable for thousands of years may become vulnerable, co-author of the research Nerilie Abram said.
