The 'Scapegoating' of the Christians in Egypt by the Muslim Brotherhood
In the Bible, on the Day of Atonement, the High Priest was instructed to sacrifice one goat for the forgiveness of sins (for a year). He laid his hands on another goat and confessed the sins of the people, and then banished it to the wilderness.
This second goat we have called the "scapegoat" in English, ever since the phrase was coined by the first major translator of the Bible into English (from the original Hebrew and Greek), William Tyndale (c. 1494-1536). (Wycliffe translated it from Latin.) Much of Tyndale's work was used in the King James Bible (1611) and thus popularized all over the world.
Christians view Jesus' death as fulfilling all the ceremonial sacrifices, including that sacrificial goat and the scapegoat---and the Passover lamb and everything else.
Scapegoating means taking punishment, out on an innocent party, the sins of someone else. Right now Christians are unfairly being made the scapegoat by the Muslim Brotherhood in Egypt, since Morsi was ousted from power last month.
The crazy thing is that the pushback against the government of Mohammad Morsi, the elected president of Egypt until early July, came not just from Christians---but also middle class youth, political liberals, and secular Muslims---all of whom opposed the leader's ties to the Muslim Brotherhood and his imposing a strict Islamist regime.
Millions of Egyptians---again, most of them Muslims---protested against Morsi, until the army stepped in on July 3 in a coup. So why are Christians alone being singled out by Morsi's supporters, who cry, "Victory or Martyrdom"?
With somewhere between 10-15 million (in a country of 85 million), Egypt has the largest Christian population of any Middle Eastern country - for now.
Samuel Tadros, a Research Fellow at the Hudson Institute's Center for Religious Freedom, is quoted as saying that last Wednesday (8/14/13) appears to have been the worst single day of violence against Egypt's Coptic Church since the 14th century.
He says the Muslim Brotherhood blames Christians for ousting Morsi, so it can paint the military-backed government as anti-Islamic.
Tadros says the Coptic pope has gone into hiding, and many surviving churches have canceled Sunday services as Christians huddle in their homes, fearing for their lives.
In National Review Online (8/20/13), Rich Lowry writes, "Egypt is in the midst of an anti-Christian pogrom. Supporters of ousted Muslim Brotherhood president Mohamed Morsi are lashing out at the country's Copts for the offense of being Christian in Egypt."
Bishop Julian Dobbs from the Convocation of Anglicans in North America, who has on occasion visited the Christian communities in Egypt, sent me an email on the situation.
He notes, "Supporters of ousted president Mohammad Morsi have gone on the rampage against Christians in Egypt. A ten-year-old girl was gunned down as she was walking home from her Bible study class, and churches and other Christian property have been torched by rioters. Egyptian Christians have come under frequent attack since the uprising that led to Morsi's removal; they are being scapegoated for his fall."
Estimates vary as to how many Christian churches, orphanages, and schools have been destroyed. Some have put the number as high as 80, just since last Wednesday.
Rev. Dr. Mouneer Hanna Anis, Bishop of the Anglican Diocese of Egypt recently wrote, "Please pray that the situation will calm down, for wisdom and tact for the police and the army, for the safety of all churches and congregations, and that all in Egypt would be safe."
The Muslim Brotherhood is an international Islamic organization that was founded in Egypt in 1928, and it's dedicated to restoring the caliphate; the caliph was the successor of Mohammed as the political, military and spiritual leader of the Muslims
Perhaps the Muslim Brotherhood is best understood by their creed: "Allah is our objective. The Koran is our law. The Prophet is our leader. Jihad is our way, and death for the sake of Allah is the highest of our aspirations." No wonder the Egyptian Christians are feeling their wrath.
In their book, Shariah: The Threat to America, the Center for Security Policy notes that the Muslim Brotherhood is "the root of the majority of Islamic terrorist groups in the world today."
Pray for the Christians in Egypt as they have been scapegoated by the Muslim Brotherhood.

Grad Explodes Near Eilat Residential Area; Rocket Apparently Fired From Sinai
Traces of rocket found some 150 meters from a residential area in Eilat, southern Israel; no injuries or damage reported; forces continuing search for rockets.
A grad rocket exploded near a residential area in the southern Israeli city of Eilat early on Thursday morning.
No injuries or damage were reported, but some Eilat residents were said to be suffering from shock.
Security forces found traces of the rocket near a building site in the Shahamon neighborhood early on Thursday morning, about 150 meters from a residential area, after strong explosions shook the city approximatley twenty minutes after midnight on Wednesday.
Security forces continued to search for traces of more rockets, thought to have been fired toward the city from the Sinai Peninsula.
Ron Gertner, police commander for the Eilat district, said that, according to estimates, "the rocket was fired from the Sinai area," adding that "investigations will continue in the morning, and only after their completion will we be able to reach any final conclusions."
Eilat resident Yossi Atia, who immigrated to Israel from France 16 years ago, was the person who found the rocket traces. He said he heard the explosion when he was in his house, about 150 meters from where the rocket exploded.
"My wife shouted," he said, "I went out and looked for traces of the rocket," he said. "I searched for forty minutes with torches until I found [the traces]." After finding the remains of the rocket, he called the police.
Many city residents came out of their houses when they heard the explosions . R., a resident of the Shahamon neighbourhood in Eilat, said that they heard a loud noise about twenty minutes after midnight. "I heard two explosions that shook the area," R. said. "After that, a strong and unusual smell started to spread, not something that I can define."
The most recent incident of terrorism in the Eilat area took place in August 2011, when eight people were killed and dozens wounded in a series of attacks on Israeli targets approximately 20 kilometers north of Eilat.
In August 2010, five grad rockets fired from Egypt exploded in the Eilat area and in Aqaba in Jordan. One Jordanian man was killed by the rocket fire.
A senior security official said last month that several terror groups are now at large in the Sinai. These groups include local Bedouin, who are adopting the ideology of the Global Jihad; groups supported by Iran, who are trying to recruit and train militants not only in Sinai but throughout Egypt; and Palestinian organizations. Joining them are Global Jihad militants from Iraq, Afghanistan, Yemen and Saudi Arabia, according to the official.

AC Milan midfielder Antonio Nocerino unhappy with his bit-part role at the club, according to his agent.
The former Palermo midfielder was a key part of the Rossoneri side last season but has been restricted to just 15 Serie A starts in 2012/13, and his representative Marco Sommella has revealed the player is far from content with life on the bench."Nocerino is not happy with how the campaign has gone and it would be useless to pretend otherwise," Sommella told Radio CRCon Friday.
"He was a protagonist last season, scoring a number of goals, and he didn't expect to be placed to one side."
Reports have surfaced that Napoli have met with Milan officials to discuss a possible deal, but Sommella insists it is still too early to talk of a move.
"If there has been a meeting between Milan and Napoli then I don't know about it. It is premature to talk about the transfer market now," he continued.
"[Napoli coach] Walter Mazzarri is a fan of Nocerino, but it's not the coach who has to call up a player. It is down to clubs and agents to take a negotiation forward.
"If Napoli want him then they'll have to contact the Milan owners in a bid to set up talks."

TORONTO: Two newcomers - forwards Jay Rosehill and Adam Hall _ could be in the Flyers' lineup Thursday night in Toronto.
The Flyers need to do SOMETHING to shake up their road blues. They are 4-12-1 on the road this season, the Eastern Conference's worst record.
Rosehill, the Flyers' new enforcer after a trade with Anaheim for Harry Zolnierczyk, used to play for the Maple Leafs and said he would like nothing more than to face his former team.
Hall, signed off waivers from Tampa Bay, is expected to be used on the PK and on the fourth line.
The Flyers might have a fourth line with Sean Couturier centering Rosehill and Hall.
Goalie Steve Mason, acquired from Columbus on Wednesday for Michael Leighton and a third-round draft pick in 2015, took shots from Kurtis Foster and Tye McGinn at the Air Canada Centre at 11:30 Thursday morning.
Afterward, he said he was NOT starting tonight. lya Bryzgalov will make his 21st straight start.
Mason said he was thrilled to have a "clean slate" with the Flyers and admitted he lost his confidence in Columbus. His agent, Anton Thun, said he expected Mason to sign a one-year deal perhaps as early as next week and that the goalie was excited to be with the Flyers and to compete for the No. 1 job next year.
Said Mason: "I'm not sure what my role is now, I haven't really been told. To me, that's not my main focus. My job is to come in here and become the goaltender the organization believes I can be _ and that's to be a No. 1 goaltender. I'm fully prepared to put the work in, and really excited to start doing it."
The Flyers (16-17-3), four points out of a playoff spot, are riding their first three-game winning streak of the season. Toronto (20-12-4), one of the NHL surprise teams, also had has won three in a row, and the Leafs have won both meetings against the Flyers this season.
Former Flyer winger James van Riemsdyk (14 goals), one of the NHL's leading scorers earlier in the year, is in a 10-game goal-scoring drought for Toronto, which is on a 5-0-2 run.

The freedom and liberty loving party is requiring the state to take liberty with Virginia women's vaginas. Women will not have the freedom to refuse.
The Virginia House passed a bill 63-36 requiring that women who wish to have an abortion must submit to a "transvaginal ultrasound."
The ultrasound legislation would constitute an unprecedented government mandate to insert vaginal ultrasonic probes into women as part of a state-ordered effort to dissuade them from terminating pregnancies, legislative opponents noted.
This is totally medically unnecessary invasive procedure. It serves no purpose other than to humiliate and shame women and intimidate them from choosing a legal medical procedure.[Emphasis mine]
Isn't this the same party that claims government shouldn't regulate businesses!

I heard about it this morning. It fits the legal definition of rape, in Virginia.
Dan Savage (http://slog.thestranger.com/slog/archives/2012/02/16/vagina-is-for-...) had a bit to say about it, with some links to Rachel Maddow's show.
What is going on in Virginia?
Tea Party bullshit from the 2010 midterm elections. They took over state legislatures with the promise of focusing on economic issues, then immediately began pushing ultra-conservative social legislation.
We have a gay-marriage-ban constitutional amendment up for vote in North Carolina, in the spring, because of those assholes.
Ugh, well it looks like Texas has already beaten out everybody on crazy in this regard. Do providers really comply with this stuff?
....Texas, which in 2011 passed arguably the country's most sweeping ultrasound law. Where Virginia would have providers offer a viewing of the ultrasound image, Texas requires much more. Providers there must both make an audible heartbeat of the fetus available and provide a detailed description of the fetus pictured in the sonogram.
I've heard that they provide their own, artificial heartbeat-track, if necessary, if the abortion is done before the fetus has developed sufficiently to have a detectable heartbeat.

Lark silent alarm clock system launching June 14 at Apple Store
Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Accessories, Apple, Household, Science,
If you're tired of waking up your significant other (or your significant other waking you up!) when the alarm clock goes off, you may want to take a peek at the Lark. They're calling it a silent "un-alarm" clock, and the promise is that it will wake you up without disturbing those around you. How does it work? You wear a sleep sensor on your wrist, and dock your iPhone, iPod touch, or iPad into the cradle. The device will now act as a bedside clock, while the sensor tracks all sorts of into about your sleep cycle. When it's time to wake up, the sensor on your write starts to vibrate, which is enough to wake you from your slumber.
The device will be available in Apple Stores starting on June 14th, and it'll cost $129. We've already got one in for review, so look for our thoughts on the Lark shortly.

LOS ANGELES, June 24 (UPI) -- TLC announced Tuesday that its upcoming reality show Leah Remini: It's All Relative will premiere on July10 at 10 p.m.
The series, created by Duck Dynasty producer Gurney Productions, follows the actress's life in Los Angeles and features her husband Angelo Pagan, the couple's 9-year-old daughter, Sofia, and Remini's "opinionated mother, eccentric stepfather, sister and brother-in-law."
Remini rose to fame for playing the main character's wife on CBS's '90s sitcom The King of Queens. However, the 44-year-old actress has become best known for her very-public exit from the church of Scientology. The first episode of her upcoming reality series will reportedly focus on a party she and Pagan decide to throw for friends who stood by them after they left the church.
"I'm so happy to be opening my home to TLC and to be sharing my family with you," Remini said during Tuesday's announcement. "Beware -- In these last 13 weeks of working on the show, my mother and stepfather already feel they are the true talent and breakouts of the show and expect to be offered sitcoms."
In March the Discovery Communications network announced it ordered 12 half-hour episodes of the show thus far. The first two episodes of It's All Relative will air back to back on July 10.

"Open standard" is not the same as "open source".
I don't think OpenGL works like that though: the "open" in the name was mostly just a marketing response to M$' quite closed DirectX & Direct3D product. DirectX/Direct3D ran only on Windows. SGI made it's competing 3D pipeline that it called GL available on any platform from UNIX to MacOS to Windows, so SGI rebranded GL as OpenGL. The point of the "Open" in the name was that SGI GL was being released in such a way that it could be implemented on any hardware and/or OS that someone wanted to use.
There is no fee to acquire the OpenGL spec and implementation guidelines. Anyone who wants to can just download them and start working. I downloaded them in circa 1998, read them, and decided I had better things to do with the next decade of my life than implement OpenGL.
The reason MESA has always lagged behind commercial implementations is IMHO because an OpenGL implementation (1) is very complex; (2) is not really well suited for a CPU with only a few cores; (3) is certainly more complex to implement on a MIMD CPU than on a SIMD GPU.

A home in Pacific Palisades that once belonged to President Reagan has sold for $5.211 million. The mid-century-style house had been listed two months ago at $4.999 million. That's a 4% presidential premium.

The property last sold in 1988 for $1.95 million, public records show.
Sally Forster Jones of Coldwell Banker's Beverly Hills South office was the listing agent. Michael Manheim of Prudential's Brentwood office represented the buyer.

June 16, 2009
INDIANAPOLIS - UC Santa Barbara was one of 18 institutions or conferences which was selected by the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) to receive a women's basketball grant as part of the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Grant Program, which is in its second year.
The 2009-10 NCAA grant program dedicated approximately $750,000 nationally to increase awareness, exposure and increase attendance of women's basketball.
UCSB will use the grant to institute a marketing initiative that will increase attendance at women's basketball games over the next five years. Three target audiences - families in the community, female leaders in the community and UCSB students - will be the focus of gaining larger attendance figures. UCSB will also hold a season ticket campaign engaging families in various programs as well as beginning Thunder R.O.W. (Raising Outstanding Women), a mentoring program for community youth. UCSB students will be targeted with an affinity program and a Greek competition.
"We are very pleased to have received grant money from the NCAA to help us promote our women's basketball program," said Executive Associate Athletics Director Diane O'Brien, who was instrumental in helping UCSB attain the grant. "Now we'll be able to do some of the things we've always wanted to do to increase attendance and awareness. It's great that the NCAA offers assistance to schools for a focused effort to advance women's basketball. We're excited to be a part of it."
A total of 75 member schools and conferences submitted proposals in the second year of the pilot program. National office staff and representatives from the NCAA women's basketball marketing consultant firm, Hawkeye Sports and Entertainment, evaluated the proposals.
"We are pleased with the success of many of last year's grant recipients and are excited to see what these new recipients are able to achieve with this assistance," said NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Vice President Sue Donohoe. "When resources are allocated and efforts are focused to promote women's basketball, it can provide a meaningful return on the investment."
Joining UCSB as 2009-10 grant recipients are Auburn University; Big South Conference; Cornell University; East Tennessee State University; Eastern Michigan University; Iowa State University; Patriot League; San Diego State University, University of California, Los Angeles; University of California, Riverside; University of Hartford; University of Kansas; University of Miami (Florida); University of North Carolina, Chapel Hill; University of South Carolina, Columbia; West Coast Conference and Western Athletic Conference.
The first year of the grant program went very well and we are anticipating more success in year two," said Donohoe. "The membership has had a tremendous interest in securing grant resources to advance women's basketball. It is important that we continue to work to grow women's basketball from the inside out and at the grass roots level."
2008-09 grant recipient success stories included Texas Tech University which doubled its student attendance for women's basketball home games; Florida State University increased season ticket sales by 63 percent, with a 55% increase in overall attendance for women's basketball; East Tennessee State University increased its average attendance by 231% and several grant recipients set record single game attendance marks.
The program will be evaluated following its second year to determine if the objectives are being met. Grants are awarded on a one-year basis and are not automatically renewed. East Tennessee State University, Patriot League and San Diego State University received a grant for the second straight year. This marketing initiative concept was generated from the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Discussion Group, chaired by NCAA President Myles Brand. The group consisted of head coaches, media representatives, former student-athletes and conference, institutional and Women's Basketball Coaches Association administrators. This initiative has been strongly supported by the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Committee, and the NCAA Division I Women's Basketball Issues Committee.
About the NCAA and Division I Women's Basketball
The NCAA is a membership-led nonprofit association of colleges and universities committed to supporting academic and athletic opportunities for more than 400,000 student-athletes at more than 1,000 member colleges and universities. Each year, more than 54,000 student-athletes compete in NCAA championships in Divisions I, II and III sports. Visit www.ncaa.org and www.ncaa.com for more details about the Association, its goals, members and corporate partnerships that help support programs for student-athletes.
NCAA women's basketball is characterized by strong fundamentals, high quality of play, sportsmanship, role model student-athletes and family oriented entertainment. For the latest news in regard to the Women's Final Four, please visit www.ncaa.com/finalfour.

The NAG Fortran Library Manual
The complete NAG Fortran Library Manual, Mark 26 can be viewed on-line in the following formats:
- HTML: the full manual available as HTML (using HTML5 features such as MathML and SVG in suitable browsers);
- PDF: the same manual as above, consisting of many PDF files, may be browsed via the HTML table of contents pages;
- Single file PDF: the manual as a single PDF file;
- ZIP file: the archive as a ZIP file;
- Windows html help: Windows html help version as a single file;
(Note: due to windows security restrictions the help file may not be read directly from the internet. Save a copy to your local disk, and then read the local copy. Also depending on the Windows version installed you may need to unblock files copied from the internet before they may be used (right click on the help file and select properties then select the "unblock" button).
Advice on viewing and navigating the first three formats can be found in the How to Use the NAG Library and its Documentation document. You are strongly advised to read this document if you wish to try the HTML format.
The two single file formats are more compact than the formats using one file per routine, but of course are a larger download if you only need to view the documentation for a few routines.
The Library is organized into Chapters - each being documented with its own Introduction and Contents list followed by a comprehensive document for each function detailing its purpose, description, list of parameters and possible error exits. Example programs and results are also supplied. All examples are available on-line to facilitate their use as templates for the users' calling programs.
The known issues document reflects all reported and resolved issues that affect various releases of the NAG Fortran Library, along with suggested workarounds where possible.
The previous marks of the NAG Fortran Library Manual are still available: Mark 25, Mark 24, Mark 23, Mark 22 and Mark 21.
A full list of routines withdrawn from past marks of the Library has been provided with pointers to the recommended replacement routine.
Support documentation for the installation and use of each implementation of the NAG Fortran Library is available.

Interactive map shows unclaimed funds by county
New York State Comptroller Thomas P. DiNapoli today urged New Yorkers to see if any of the $12.5 billion in lost and forgotten money currently being held by his office could be theirs. More than 30 million accounts are unclaimed in New York, some dating back to the 1940s. An interactive map created by DiNapoli's office shows the number of outstanding accounts and monetary values by county.
"Every New Yorker should visit our website to see if my office is holding any money in their name. It's likely that some of the $12.5 billion in unclaimed funds belongs to you, a family member or friend," DiNapoli said. "Fortunately, it is easier than ever to search for and claim lost money. Just a few minutes on our website is often all it takes to reclaim what is rightfully yours."
A large portion of unclaimed funds derives from dormant bank accounts, uncashed checks, insurance accounts and stocks. The money is turned over by financial institutions and companies to DiNapoli's office to manage after a period of dormancy, usually three years. Although the average claim paid is less than $100, the largest account currently being held by DiNapoli's office for an individual is $1.7 million.
On average, DiNapoli's office returns $1 million a day. In most cases, checks are sent to owners within three-to-five days after a claim is submitted. Some claims, such as those involving estates, may require more paperwork to claim.
New Yorkers can search for lost money for free by visiting the office of unclaimed funds' website or by calling the call center toll-free at 1-800-221-9311. More than 5,500 visitors access the website each day, and more than 500 callers contact the call center to search for lost money.
DiNapoli released statewide regional data including the number of outstanding accounts and total dollar values by county, as well as information on claims paid in 2012. The regional data represented in the statewide map does not include accounts that have unknown ownership or those with incomplete addresses.

WASHINGTON Defense Secretary Leon Panetta said Thursday that the speed of the attack on the U.S. Consulate in Benghazi, Libya, last September kept U.S. armed forces from responding in time to save the four Americans who were killed.
Testifying for likely the last time on Capitol Hill before stepping down, Panetta defended the U.S. military's response on a chaotic Sept. 11 day as the Obama administration tried to assess the threat from protests in Tunisia, Egypt, the Libyan capital of Tripoli and other countries.
Panetta pushed back against Republican criticism that the Obama administration ignored warning signs about an attack that claimed the lives of American Ambassador Chris Stevens and three others. The Pentagon chief insisted there were no signs of an imminent attack or specific intelligence. Six months before the assault, the government was apprised of 281 threats to diplomatic missions, consulates and other facilities worldwide, he said.
Soon after the initial attack, Panetta said, he did dispatch various military teams to Benghazi, including Marines from Spain and a special operations force that was training in Central Europe.
He answered emerging questions about why the U.S. didn't send more firepower, such as gunships or fixed-wing fighter jets. He said those were not in the vicinity and would have required at least nine to 12 hours to deploy. Even if aircraft could have arrived quickly, the chaos would have prevented them from getting the accurate information they needed to hit the right targets, he said.

Coil Embolization
Why is the doctor performing this procedure?
To stop bleeding or abnormal blood flow within an artery. For example, coil embolization can be used to:
- Close a Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA)
- Stop abnormal blood flow in an Arteriovenous Malformation (AVM)
- Stop bleeding in an aneurysm
- Stop intestinal bleeding
What is the procedure?
Coil embolization is a catheter-based procedure that allows precise occlusion of abnormal blood flow in a blood vessel. A catheter with a metallic occluding coil is inserted into an artery, usually in the groin (the femoral artery). It is then advanced to the abnormal blood vessel. Once properly positioned, the metal coil is released, springing into position within the vessel. It remains firmly in place by the expansion of the metal coils. A blood clot will form on the coil, completely obstructing the abnormal blood flow beyond the coil. Eventually a scar will form, creating a permanent seal.
Where is the procedure performed?
In the Cardiac Catheterization Lab.
How long does this procedure take?
Coil Embolization usually takes 1-3 hours.

Iraq officials: 2 vehicle bomb blasts kill 24
BAGHDAD (AP) — A bomb hidden inside a pickup truck loaded with vegetables exploded in a market north of Baghdad, the deadlier of two vehicle bombings that killed 24 people in Iraq on Thursday.
The blasts in the city of Samarra and the Baghdad suburb of Abu Ghraib are the latest in a seemingly unrelenting wave of violence pounding Iraq a decade after the U.S.-led invasion. They follow a spate of car bombings and other attacks a day earlier that killed at least 82.
The pickup truck bomb responsible for most of Thursday's deaths tore through a market in Samarra, killing 18 and wounding 32, according to police.
Samarra is a largely Sunni Muslim city that is home to a revered Shiite shrine. The 2006 bombing of the gold-domed al-Askari shrine by Sunni militants unleashed widespread sectarian bloodshed in what would come to be seen as the darkest chapter of the war.
Another car bomb went off Thursday in Abu Ghraib, on the western outskirts of Baghdad, killing six and wounding 15, according to police. Abu Ghraib is the site of the prison made infamous by prisoner abuse by U.S. personnel following the 2003 invasion.
A highly coordinated jailbreak by al-Qaida at the prison and another Baghdad-area lockup in July set free more than 500 inmates, including several militants.
Hospital officials confirmed Thursday's casualty figures. All officials spoke on condition of anonymity because they weren't authorized to release the information.
There was no immediate claim of responsibility. Al-Qaida's Iraq branch frequently detonates car bombs in areas with large numbers of civilians in the hopes of maximizing the number of casualties and undermining public confidence in the Shiite-led government.
More than 4,000 people have been killed in violent attacks in Iraq since the start of April, when the pace of killing accelerated to levels unseen since 2008.

Max Goldstein on One Whale of a Journey
Story posted May 01, 2009
After graduation, Bowdoin College senior Max Goldstein plans to make a big splash. Several of them, in fact, as he travels the world to complete four long-distance swims as part of a Thomas J. Watson Fellowship.
The highly selective Watson Fellowship funds independent research projects outside the U.S. for one year after graduation.
Goldstein, of Los Angeles, Calif., and a double-major in biology and Romance languages with a chemisty minor, plans to travel to Peru, Bolivia, Spain, Morocco, Turkey, Jordan and Israel in order to complete four long-distance swims in the waters that divide these countries in a project he calls "Swimming Around the World: Creating Bridges between Communities."
"I hope to swim across the Strait of Gibraltar from Morocco to Spain, the Bosphorus and the Dardanalles Straits between Asia and Europe, the Incan Island of the Sun in Lake Titicaca from Peru to Bolivia, and — if travel warning status allows — some form of water traverse of the Dead Sea from Jordan to Israel."
Goldstein says he began swimming on competitive teams at the age of five and says as a child he considered the water his home.
"The swimming community was my source of bonding, unity and grounding. The water was the center of my life."
Goldstein's project involves making each of these traverses a community endeavor.
"I will engage with aquatic communities abroad and make each traverse a group effort, inciting a dialogue between people on both sides of the water," he says.
He also plans to teach swimming along the way.
"I hope to make myself known as the swimmer and the swim instructor," Goldstein says, "and plan to use the power of swimming to forge relationships with aquatic communities abroad."
Goldstein spent the spring of 2008 in Tunisia and Yemen learning Arabic, and also speaks French and Spanish — all of which he hopes to employ on his journey.
Goldstein is one of 40 college seniors nationally who have received a 2009 Watson Fellowship.
This year, 177 finalists competed on the national level, after their institutions nominated them in the fall.
Each fellow receives $28,000 for the year of travel and exploration.
"The awards are long-term investments in people, not research," says Cleveland Johnson, director of the Watson Fellowship program and a former Watson Fellow.
"We look for persons likely to lead or innovate in the future and give them extraordinary independence to pursue their interests outside of traditional academic structures. Watson Fellows are passionate learners, creative thinkers, and motivated self-starters who are encouraged to dream big but demonstrate feasible strategies for achieving their fellowship goals. The Watson Fellowship affords an unequalled opportunity for global experiential learning."
The Thomas J. Watson Fellowship Program was established in 1968 by the children of Thomas J. Watson Sr., the founder of IBM Corporation, and his wife, Jeannette K. Watson, to honor their parents' long-standing interest in education and world affairs. The Watson Foundation regards its investment in people as an effective contribution to the global community.

Despite the fact that there are tens of millions of nontheistic Americans, we remain one of the most marginalized groups in the country. The Secular Coalition for America is working to make sure that we are heard on Capitol Hill. We fight in Washington DC against religious privileging on a federal level, yet some of the most egregious violations of separation of church and state are being promoted and passed at a state level. We need your help to see real change in Columbus and across Ohio.
The Secular Coalition for America is forming state chapters across the country. Our chapters will bring together secular Americans in each state to influence government officials, legislation, and regulations. A Secular Coalition for America state chapter is unlike any other nontheistic state organization—it brings together interested organizations and individuals for the exclusive purpose of lobbying government officials.

Western nations must resist the pressure to "scapegoat, abandon, even kill, the elderly as a cost-cutting measure," an Australian bishop said in a major bioethics lecture. Bishop Anthony Fisher of Parramatta, a member of the Pontifical Academy for Life, said health economists and utilitarian philosophers were placing the elderly at risk by treating them as a "swarm of voracious but unworthy consumers of a resource which doctors must guard from them." Delivering the 2012 Anscombe Memorial Lecture on Oct. 15 at St John's College, Oxford University, he accused health economists who focused disproportionately on costs of "showing us how to get most efficiently to the wrong place." He said that as the number of people over age 65 rises, the strain on governments will increase proportionately. "Of course we need principles of fairness here and virtues like medical temperance," the bishop said. "But to wish we were dead before we are old or that the old were dead so they'd stop burdening us is no anthem for a good society."

I just moved on to Athenaze, Chapter 21β. The chapter reading is Thucydides 1.140-46, Pericles' speech to the assembly.
Usually, I do fairly well with the readings as long as I have learned the vocabulary. Up until now, most readings have been concocted by the Athenaze authors, although some have been adapted from classical authors or have been from the New Testament.
The problem with this latest passage is that the things I have expected in sentences in order to obtain meaning are not always obvious or there. For instance, the first sentence had two infinitives, an aorist participle and no other verbs, leaving me with a sentence that does not grammatically make much sense to me. It is also not easy to figure out how words within the sentence relate to one another.
Unlike some here, I have never studied Latin, nor have I read translated versions of classical works. I suspect that if I had, I would have a better instinct for the meaning of what I'm trying to read.
So. Has anyone here encountered this sort of problem...perhaps someone who has done Athenaze?
I have, maybe, three choices:
1. Plow through this reading and hope that the rest of the readings are closer to my level. I don't want to make a habit of struggling through readings that are really too hard for me though.
2. Do some review of past lessons, though I don't think anything there will solve this problem.
3. Look for some supplementary material/teaching that will help me bridge this sudden gap that has developed in my comprehension.
Maybe there are other strategies I should consider. Can anyone advise me?

The maintenance and long-term preservation of the collection are vital to the Art Institute of Chicago's purpose. The museum maintains an active conservation program to care for its permanent collection with a staff of 20 conservators and scientists that includes specialists in the care of prints and drawings, paintings, three-dimensional objects, textiles, books, and photographs.
The Department of Conservation was established in 1956 with the appointment of Paintings Conservator Louis Pomerantz to the staff. Facilities for textile paper and photographic conservation were added in later years. The conservation department is also equipped for radiography of paintings and three-dimensional objects and for infrared imaging.
In recent years science has played an increasing role in art conservation, both for devising better conservation treatments and to gain a deeper understanding into the material nature of art objects and of artists' techniques and studio practices. In 2003 the Art Institute of Chicago established a state-of-the-art scientific laboratory, with major funding of $2.75 million from the Andrew W. Mellon Foundation, and appointed Francesca Casadio as its first conservation scientist. Two years later an associate conservation scientist was added to the staff. The laboratory is equipped with polarized and fluorescence light microscopy, FTIR and Raman microspectroscopies, X-ray fluorescence spectrometry, and GC/MS analysis

My LO is 2 weeks old and I have been BFing since birth. He latches on well but sometimes feeds up to 14 times a day, sometimes for 20 mins, but others only 5 or 10 mins.
Im worried he's not satisfied if he wants to feed so often, sometimes only an hour has past before the last feed.
I would like to continue BFing, but the last couple of days I have come close to switching to formula, just because im worried about the amount of milk he is getting.
On average he has about 7 wet nappies and 5 dirty nappies a day...
Does this sounds normal??

PASADENA >> Two men escaped with hundreds of thousands of dollars worth of jewelry late Thursday after robbing a pair of jewelry dealers on a freeway offramp in Pasadena, police said.
The heist took place about 9:50 p.m. on the Fair Oaks Avenue offramp of the eastbound 210 Freeway, Pasadena police Lt. John Luna said.
Two men from out of state who own a jewelry business were visiting town when a car stopped in front of them, Luna said.
The two robbers exited their car and confronted the victims, who were 35 and 45 years old, he said.
"They threatened harm if the victims did not comply with their demands," Luna said. The robbers ordered the victims to open the trunk of their car.
Luna said the robbers grabbed jewelry valued at "several hundred-thousand dollars," from the victims' trunk before fleeing. The jewelry dealers were not injured, and no weapons were seen during the crime.
Police described the robbers only as two male suspects wearing dark clothing. They were driving a white sedan, possibly of German manufacture.
The victims did not recognize the robbers, Luna said. It was not clear how the robbers knew of the victims' precious cargo.
"They were obviously targeted," Luna said.

U.S. bankers and insurers are trying to use trade deals, which can trump existing legislation, to weaken parts of the Dodd-Frank Act designed to prevent a repeat of the 2008 financial crisis.
While the companies say they are seeking agreements that preserve strong regulations and encourage economic growth, their effort is drawing fire from groups who argue that Wall Street wants to make the trade negotiations a new front in its three-year campaign to stop or alter the law.
Senator Elizabeth Warren, a Massachusetts Democrat who sits on the Banking Committee, said in a May 7 statement that there are "growing murmurs" about Wall Street's efforts to "do quietly through trade agreements what they can't get done in public view with the lights on and people watching."
The U.S. has embarked on three major negotiations aimed at reducing barriers to international commerce, one with the European Union covering most types of trade and investment, and a similar one with Asia-Pacific nations including Japan. A third set of talks, covering only services, is under way at the World Trade Organization.
The Coalition of Service Industries, a trade association whose website lists Citigroup Inc., JPMorgan Chase & Co., American International Group Inc. and The Chubb Corp. as members, told the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative in a May 10 letter that "more compatible regulations for services" should be part of the EU deal.
'Without Prejudice'
"Such provisions can be accomplished without prejudice to regulators' authority to adopt or maintain regulations for consumer protection, environmental, health, safety, or prudential reasons," the coalition's president, Peter Allgeier, wrote in the letter.
The Securities Industry and Financial Markets Association, Wall Street's biggest lobbying group, said in a March 1 letter that liberalization of trade in financial services "is often incorrectly equated with deregulation."
Stephen Pastrick, director for public policy and advocacy at the group, wrote that it supports "strong regulation and prudential standards. However, there is much to be gained" by an agreement "enhancing regulatory efficiency."
In the U.S., the president starts negotiations on trade agreements with a general mandate from Congress. After they are signed, the agreements are converted into implementing legislation, which can change regulations if the deal requires.
Congress then votes on the proposal, usually under special procedures that bar amendments to the pact's details.

The CCRI Knights' men's soccer team welcomed the Bulldogs of Dean College to the CCRI soccer complex in Lincoln on Tuesday. The Knights lost to the Bulldogs 3-1. With the loss the Knights fall to 1-6 overall and 1-3 in Region XXI play and 0-2 in their conference (Region XXI Division I).
The Knights were definitely ready to take on their Division I rival. Head Coach Gabe Toro was excited because two of his injured players were ready to come back and contribute to the team. The coaching staff finally had a game plan ready and the personnel to carry it out. The Knights were able to execute the game plan for most of the first half. With 14:03 left in the first half, Junior Robert (Providence, RI) headed a pass over the Dean back line where Freddie Korsah (Accra, Ghana) was able to anticipate this pass as he ran into the 18-yard box through two Bulldog defenders and shot the ball around the Dean goalkeeper. Korsah' s goal gave the Knights a 1-0 lead. But with under three minutes left in the half, the Knights had a mental lapse that resulted in the equalizer scored by Javon Philip making the score 1-1. That is the score at halftime. Coach Toro was very impressed with his team's structure and defensive discipline for 42 minutes of the first half.
In the second half the Knights suffered a quick goal a minute into the half. This was a mental blow to the Knights and they were not able to recover. The Bulldogs capitalized on a foul outside the 18 yard box and ran a set play that landed on the foot of Kelvin Castillo giving Dean the 2-1 lead just 1:08 into the second half. About 20 minutes into the second half a bad clearance by the Knights' defense resulted in a put back by Alex Bedrosian giving Dean the 3-1 lead which ended up being the final score.
Coach Toro expressed to his team "You need to be more mentally resilient when they scored upon. Tri-Captain Rob Gallucci (Coventry, RI), had a great game in net and made some big saves in net for us. Overall, we showed we were able to compete with any team in Division I. Consistency for 90 minutes is our next goal."
The Knights will have the opportunity to show this consistency when they host the Rams Springfield Technical Community College to Lincoln for another home game on Thursday, October 3rd at 4:00pm.
The Community College of Rhode Island, New England's largest comprehensive community college, enrolls nearly 18,000 students in credit courses and thousands more in non-credit and job training classes. Its athletic program boasts 12 varsity programs and an academic support program for all student-athletes.

Sam Asano's Let's Invent: Golden lives matterBy SAM ASANO
September 17. 2017 6:05PM
THIS WEEK we deal with patents and copyright, something that befuddles amateur inventors. In the past I've received many inquiries from amateur inventors regarding the concepts of their creations and whether they could successfully end up with patents.
A patent is an exclusive license to use and license or manufacture a product or process, and is provided by the federal government. To hold a patent elevates inventors to a higher status both intellectually and often monetarily. Basically, having a patent or two as an inventor is considered very desirable regardless of whether they have any monetary value. This week starts a short trip to find out if we could get a patent and a copyright registration for "Golden Lives Matter."
When I began writing this column four years ago, I originally focused on the need to invent to raise the level of domestic manufacturing to cause an American Renaissance. Since then, I've received hundreds of comments from readers. They mostly come from two groups of people. The first group are the amateur inventors who have just come up with an idea and want to know whether it is patentable. The other, and much larger number, is from age 65 and over who have been suffering from all sorts of deficiencies, basically anything that hampers their lives because things aren't designed right, manufactured right or put together right with no consideration to the aging.
Through the industrial prosperity that started about 1850, and pushed America to be the world's top industrial nation until 1970, this country enjoyed unprecedented and continuous improvement in living standards. Every little town had a few factories or shops making various things, and residents were employed gainfully and happily. This nation was truly a country of milk and honey.
The 100-year prosperity, however, brought a substantial lifestyle change. Now the elders needn't live with their sons and daughters, who have children. While in the Old World, three generations often live under a roof, America progressed to the point the older parents lived away from the current couple with their kids.
This fast rise in the living standards separated the currently working generation with children from the elders, who went away to live independently. This, however, created a form of sociological gap between the two groups of people.
The technological developments performed by the current generation very often end up totally suitable to themselves, but not to the elders. Websites use fonts that require a magnifying glass to read. TV broadcasts are spoken so fast that the elders cannot understand with their diminished hearing. Shoe stores cater to the young stylish crowd and ignore the needs of the elders who need skid-free soles. No wonder the elders feel they have been cut off from the mainstream of the very society they have worked hard to build.
Last week, I proposed to copy the feet of wolves. Also, I initiated the slogan "Golden Lives Matter," a takeoff from "Black Lives Matter." So, these are two projects I wish to commence. One is to ask, "Is copying the wolf's paw patentable?" The other is can "Golden Lives Matter" become a registered copyright?
Christopher Frerking is a professor in charge of the intellectual properties department at the University of New Hampshire School of Law. He is also my patent counsel. I asked these two questions, and he is doing his search now. His immediate reply regarding the copying of wolves' feet is that it is patentable unless someone has already done so. He is not able to divulge the communications between us as that is a client confidential matter. However, he would be able to inform me of the result of his queries in the not too distant future.
My column was started in 2013 with the title of "Let's Invent" to encourage amateur inventors to step forward to invent and contribute to the manufacturing industry. During this past four years of writing every week without missing even one week, I have discovered that the area needing innovation badly is the field of assisting the elders — Golden Lives Matter.
Therefore, this column will focus on the innovations to assist the lives of the elders — especially those "aging in place," people who wish to continue to live in their residence. So many items and issues remain that need improvements. We will apply as much technology, smart thinking and user friendliness to improve the elders' lives. After all they have built this nation. Why can't their lives be easier and more rewarding?

In one of his journeys, Gulliver walked into a castle. The king, who was the owner of the nastle, greeted the famous traveller with all honours and invited him to share his evening meal. After the meal the king asked Gulliver about his adventures andw as particularly interested in the golden chain that Gulliver found on his last journey. The king was so attracted to the chain that he offered Gulliver a deal: the next morning the king would ask Gulliver to sell him and unspecified number of links of the chain for a very generous price, if Gulliver managed to give the king exactly the requested number of links, he would get the money and freedom; otherwise he would lose the whole chain and stay with the king forever as the Royal Storyteller
Of course, the king took all care to ensure that there were no cutting or sawing tools in the bedrrom where Gulliver had to spend the night. But the experienced traveller remembered that he had a nail-file. He knew he would need the whole night to cut through one link. Then he realised that by cutting one link wisely he would be able to give the king the exact number of links regardless of how many the king would request, and started to work. (Gulliver knew that the cut link would be considered as an ordinary link.)
At the end of the night, when he got very tired, he discovered that if his chain contained more links, in order to be sure that he could het freedom (and money), he would need to cut at least two links. This interesting thought gave Gulliver the energy he needed and he quickly finisheh the job. Soon he gave the stunned king the number of links the latter asked for, and left the castle with a carraige full of money. How many links were in Gulliver's chain?

An exorcist is an extinct office within the minor orders of clergy. The primary duty of exorcists was as the instructor of catechumens, whose entrance into the catechumenate was accompanied by an exorcism, ridding them of any demonic presence that may affect them. An exorcist may also have been called upon in other instances requiring an exorcism, such as the suspicion of demonic possession of a person or location.
The exorcism of catechumens has subsequently been conflated into the rite of baptism and is usually performed by the priest or bishop celebrating the baptism. Since the fourth century, the functions and ministry of the exorcist have been subsumed by the presbyter.

Many federal agencies have taken steps to begin implementing mobile work environments, though security remains a concern. When GCN last year reviewed the Citrix Receiver software, we found it had good security for in-transit data, but did nothing for securing the endpoint — the mobile device being used by the mobile employee.
That should change now that Citrix has announced that Citrix Receiver supports the Biometric Associates baiMobile 3000MP Bluetooth Smart Card Reader and the baiMobile 301 USB Smart Card reader. It will enable Common Access Card and Personal Identity Verification holding users to access Citrix applications and virtual desktops via compatible Android devices.
The baiMobile 3000MP Bluetooth Smart Card Reader has been approved by the Defense Information Systems Agency for use in the Defense Department and meets both the National Security Agency and DISA requirements for secure Bluetooth communications.
After the card reader pairs to an Android smart phone or tablet via Bluetooth, Citrix Receiver can communicate through the stack to pass the credentials to a Citrix XenDesktop or Citrix XenApp back-end framework and securely authenticate a user via his CAC credentials to a session running safely in the data center. When coupled with Citrix Netscaler to provide FIPS 140-2 Level 2 hardware encryption, every user session is secure, and no resident data remains on the Android device that could potentially compromise security.
"Today's focus is largely about enabling mobility for the defense sector, and we are in the midst of a powerful convergence of necessity, the need for the defense sector to do more with less and a growing consumer demand for anytime-anywhere connectivity," said Tom Simmons, area vice president of public sector for Citrix. "These realities, fueled by important defense policy drivers, such as the DOD Mobile Strategy, are driving new mobile requirements."
Citrix Receiver can also now be used with other solutions, such as Citrix XenMobile and Citrix CloudGateway, as part of an Enterprise Mobility Management strategy, and feds can gain additional benefits such as enabling mobile thin client computing. When coupled with XenMobile, defense agencies can deploy this Citrix Receiver capability automatically to all Androids in a department with a just a few clicks. It also can fully wipe Citrix Receiver from a "bring your own device" Android should an employee and/or contractor leave the agency.
Users can also connect to remote virtual desktops and applications, while accessing native Android applications from an agency application store when using CloudGateway. That means that CloudGateway can elevate Citrix Receiver from an independent computing architecture client to a comprehensive solution with secure access to native applications, Web, and software-as-a-service applications, and with follow-me data through ShareFile.
As agencies move to mobile computing, CAC and PIV authentication of smart phones and other mobile devices becomes more important. In 2012, Thursby Software released the PKard Reader, the first smart-card authentication reader for iOS devices. The reader, and a free app, are FIPS 140-2 validated, work with CAC, PIV, PIV-Interoperable and Commercial Identity Verification cards, and have been put to use in agencies across government.

I would like to make mention that the full line of Tactivo smart card readers are also supported in the new Citrix releases. Tactivo supports the full line of iOS devices through slick, light-weight, certified and made in the USA readers.
The Bluetooth connection is fully encrypted for secure FIPS 201 credential transmission and has been approved by DISA for CAC use. Additionally BAI also has direct connect readers which can also be leveraged for this solution.
Yes you can read the specs on their website, but if it's really a concern the 301 is a 10-pin connector that will connect to several android devices and would aliviate the security issues. I'm still waiting to see if anyone has actually gotten one of these to work on an android phone or tablet. At half the cost for the reader and half the cost for the annual maintenance fee I think the wired version is a lot more attractive. Before I spend that much though I definately want to see it work with the new enterprise mail.
The card reader is reported as connecting to the android phone via bluetooth. bluetooth is a limited range, broadcast service. Does anyone know if the connection between the phone and the reader is encrypted and is also secure? Might like this better if it was using the phone's wifi with a WEP/WAP or WPS security scheme.
