"Paganini reincarnated", "Paganini, idem et alter", and even "Paganini without the flaws" are just some of the enthusiastic phrases applied to Camillo Sivori by European music critics during the violinist's lengthy tour of Austria, Hungary, Germany, Poland, Russia, France, Belgium, England, Ireland, Scotland and The Netherlands between 1841 and 1845. During his travels he met the best-known composers of the day, Mendelssohn, Schumann, Berlioz, Spohr, and Thalberg, took part in hundreds of concerts, competed with other celebrated violinists, Bériot, Ernst, Ole Bull, Artôt, Alard, and Vieuxtemps, and confirmed his status as Paganini's successor, at a time when memories of the great man, who had only died in 1840, were still very much alive in the musical world.
Sivori, in fact, could rightfully claim to be the "unique élève de Paganini" (Paganini's only pupil). Like him, he had been born in Genoa (on 25 October 1815); he had studied with Paganini's former teacher, Giacomo Costa, and later with his friend and disciple, Agostino Dellepiane and, most important of all, he had met the man himself and made such an impression that between October 1822 and May 1823 Paganini gave the young Sivori lessons. The great virtuoso wrote a number of pieces for his pupil, "to shape his spirit", and even provided guitar accompaniment when Sivori gave private performances of these works. It was a relationship of almost parental affection and regard, as can be seen from the many mentions of "Camillino" to be found in his correspondence. When Paganini left Genoa, he continued to follow Sivori's progress, recognising him as his student ("the only one who may call himself my pupil", he wrote in 1828). Shortly before his death, he summoned Sivori and gave him a violin: a replica of his favourite Guarneri del Gesù, "Il Cannone", made by Jean-Baptiste Vuillaume. For their part, Sivori's family fully encouraged their prodigy to follow in the Master's footsteps, and he undertook his first European tour at the age of twelve (1827–28), performing in London, with Giuditta Pasti, and in Paris, where he met Rossini, Cherubini, Baillot and Kreutzer, as well as playing alongside the seventeen-year-old Liszt.
Sivori's performing career lasted a good six decades, and his fame spread as far as the Americas: on tour between 1846 and 1850, he visited 67 North American cities, appearing on some occasions with the pianist Henri Herz, before travelling south to Cuba, Jamaica, Lima, Valparaíso, Santiago, Rio de Janeiro and Montevideo. Once back in Europe, as a tireless "musical voyager", he criss-crossed the continent from the hub of Paris, the city he had made his second home. He went to Spain and Portugal (1854–55), to Baden Baden and other summer haunts of the European aristocracy, and visited London many times (the last time in 1873), as well as making appearances in Germany (1863 and 1871–73) and Russia (1875–76). Considered "one of the most astonishing concert virtuosi" (Fétis), with a "prodigious command of difficulties" (Grove), he was fêted by Berlioz, Rossini and Mendelssohn, the last entrusting him in 1846 with the English première of his Violin Concerto, Op.64.
Sivori was not acclaimed only as a great virtuoso in the Paganini mould, however, but also as a talented interpreter of the Classical-Romantic repertoire, while it was still establishing itself. He had played chamber music since childhood, making his quartet début in 1834 in London, with the Queen Square Select Society. In 1843 he made a great impression in Paris, performing masterpieces by Haydn, Mozart and Beethoven, and in 1845 and 1846 he returned to London to take part in the very first complete performance of Beethoven's quartets, at the home of Thomas Alsager, together with Hill, Sainton and Rousselot. In Italy, meanwhile, he took an active rôle in the work done by various quartet societies with the aim of popularising instrumental music and, in 1876, Verdi invited him to perform in the Paris première of his E minor Quartet. Sivori was, then, a true virtuoso, cut from the same cloth as Paganini (held up by many as a matchless model). Yet he also proved himself to be a modern performer able to put himself entirely at the service of other people's music. In his case an astonishing command of technique was not just a vehicle for beguiling audiences with breath-taking displays of virtuosity, but, when required, a tool of great musical intelligence. Sivori died in Genoa on 19 February 1894.
As a composer, Sivori wrote more than sixty works that inventively marry virtuosity and melodic beauty. They include two violin concertos (1839 and 1843), numerous fantasias and bravura variations, both on themes from well-known operas by Paisiello, Mozart, Rossini, Bellini, Donizetti, Verdi and Gounod, and on traditional tunes, various transcriptions and reworkings, a number of highly melodic pieces and descriptive works, and the 12 Études-Caprices for solo violin, Op.25, the complete set of which are recorded here for the first time, and which were dedicated to Sivori's friend the Belgian violinist Hubert Léonard.

Flickr: JenWallerIf you think it's too hot outside to be crunching numbers or analyzing information, pour yourself a fresh glass of lemonade because this week's Member Round Up revolves around data – from a free tool for visualizing data to a hot-off-the press report about the state of hiring in the nonprofit sector. And if you need a little inspiration, then look no further than your fellow NTEN community members, some of whom have recently received recognition for their work.
NTEN member and geographic web and mobile software developer Azavea, in collaboration with Temple University's Center for Security and Crime Science, just released ACS Alchemist, an open source tool that makes it easier to access US Census Bureau American Community Survey (ACS) data. Socio-economic variables can be extracted from the ACS directly into a Shapefile for mapping or other forms of analysis and modeling. While the primary focus of their project was short-term forecasting of crime risk, ACS Alchemist is a great, user-friendly, free-to-the-public tool for anyone interested in analyzing complex Census data.
While on the topic of data extraction, NTEN member and social fundraising guru Matt Bishop recently published an article in Forbes, "The Future of Giving: Warren Buffett and Connected Philanthropy", foretelling the role that connected giving and social data will play in fundraising in the future. Matt encourages nonprofits to embrace this cultural shift, remarking that, "Influence, measured by digital and social media data, will be a new currency for the 21st century". Matt is the Founder and CEO of iGiveMore, a nonprofit that works to make online giving impacts visible through social media channels.
In 2012, our friends at Idealist.org surveyed over 1,000 U.S.-based nonprofit organizations and 3,000 active job seekers on their experiences in the ongoing recession of 2012. Fortunately, what they discovered is encouraging and shows positive changes in the sector: 48% of all nonprofits say they plan to make new hires in 2012; 54% say they will offer salary increases. To see details of their findings, check out the Idealist blog and download the reports.
Other interesting news from the sector comes from KELL Partners, which just reported its strongest quarter ever, signalling that more and more nonprofits are utilizing cloud techology solutions to achieve their missions and foster growth. In Q2, the company grew its year-over-year revenue by more than 130%! Their consulting services focus on cloud-based technology solutions serving nearly 500 organizations.
Speaking of exciting achievements, congratulations are in order for a few of our NTEN members honored by Fastcase 50 this year! Nominated from a pool of "innovators, techies, visionaries, and leaders", these 50 outstanding movers and shakers from the law world include Mark O'Brien, Co-Founder and Executive Director of Pro Bono Net, a nonprofit that provides software systems and service to pro bono legal work and legal aid organizations.
Broadening in scope to include the nonprofit sector as a whole, The Nonprofit Times also recently named its Power and Influence Top 50 of 2012, featuring a whole passel of NTEN members: Tim Delaney, President and CEO of the National Council of Nonprofits; Sr. Georgette Lehmuth, President and CEO of the National Catholic Development Conference; Wendy Harman, Social Media Manager at the American Red Cross; Ben Rattray, Founder and CEO of Change.org; NTEN's own Executive Director, Holly Ross; Rebecca Rimel, President and CEO of The Pew Charitable Trusts; John R. Seffrin, CEO of the American Cancer Society; Anna Maria Chavez, CEO of Girls Scouts of the USA; Donna Butts, Executive Director of Generations United; Vicki Escarra, President and CEO of Feeding America; James Firman, President and CEO of the National Council on Aging; Brian Gallagher, President and CEO of United Way Worldwide; Alberto Ibargüen, President and CEO of the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation; Robert Lynch, President and CEO of Americans for the Arts; and Nancy Lublin, CEO of Do Something.

AØKA08088U Advanced Development Economics - Micro Aspects
programme in Economics – elective course
MSc programme in mathematics-economics
The PhD Programme in Economics at the Department of Economics - elective course with resarch module (PhD students must contact the study administration and the lecturer in order to write the research assignment)
The World is rapidly changing and understanding the dynamics of economic development is as important as ever. This course will cover the microeconomics of development, and will focus on approaches to understanding the behavior of households and firms, and the functioning of markets and institutions in developing countries. Since development is a field with a strong empirical tradition, most of the course will be centered on discussing and evaluating the empirical strategies used in the literature. Moreover, the course will also (via exercises) provide students with an opportunity for an "hands-on" experience, as results in selected readings are replicated (and criticized) using appropriate software packages.
General textbook material and selected articles form the core of the readings. The range of topics covered include theories of development, micro-economic analysis as well as key policy issues and recommendations. Topics covered in course include: (i) Poverty and inequality, (ii) The agricultural household model (AHM), (iii) Agriculture and livelihoods, (iv) Doing business (industry and services), (v) Health and nutrition, (vi) Jobs, labor market and migration, (vii) Education and skills, (viii) Land markets and property rights, (ix) Credit and microfinance, (x) Social networks and learning, (xi) Risk and insurance, (xii) Coping with conflicts and disasters, and (xiii) a "Hot topic".
The course will therefore:
Provide the students with a critical overview of the recent literature and important debates within the micro aspects of economic development.
Provide insight into methodological issues that arises when doing research on microeconomics of development. The emphasis will be on (i) How theoretical microeconomic hypothesis may be tested with data and (ii) how to identify causal relationships. One aim is to through exercises to gain insight into what makes a good empirical study.
- Provide students with a "hands-on" experience on how to replicate empirical results using relevant econometric software. This will hopefully prepare students for original independent empirical research and help identify possible interesting thesis topics.
After completing the course, the student should be able to:
Show overview of the basic concepts used in micro development economics and lay out the key elements of the more recent theories and development models.
Critically discuss theories and empirical evidence on micro economic development
Present and discuss existing theory and empirical evidence related to the highlighted topics described in the "content" of the course.
Select relevant micro theories and empirical methods for analyses of the current economic development issues covered in the course.
Summarize and assess theory and empirical evidence on the economic characteristics and functions of selected markets in developing countries.
Reflect upon ongoing professional debate in areas within the topics highligted in the "content" of the course.
Empirical analysis of existing data relevant for development micro economics.
Ability to apply theoretical and empirical knowledge about economic development in a competent, coherent and original way in relation to current challenges.
Identify relevant model setups within development and implement existing empirical models in new contexts.
Introduce and solve new and complex empirical model setups within micro development economics in a professional and responsible manner.
- Empirical analysis of new data using relevant software.

People of faith, as well as those with no religious affiliation, have widely varying opinions about moral questions. That's okay. Freedom for differing views and beliefs is a core American value. The problem is when one particular religious viewpoint gets written into law, in direct violation of our national commitment to religious liberty. Every person in the United States should be able to make decisions according to their own conscience and faith tradition, especially in deeply private matters, such as accessing health care.An op-ed written by two ministers promotes the end of religious discrimination via a repeal of the Hyde Amendment.
The measure is more popularly seen as a matter of wealth discrimination, an invidious way to deny health care and abortion rights to the nation's poor and less well off. Prof. John Hart Ely, a liberal critic of Roe (though supporting Casey on precedent grounds at least) saw it that way, believing if abortion was going to be legal, it could not be burdened in this fashion. Rep. Hyde might have felt this was the best he and Congress could do (he rather abortion be generally banned), but as the dissents noted here, some discretionary spending limits are unconstitutional.
The majority in the last case cited (Harris v. McRae) rejected the argument that the denial of abortion funding here was invidious religious discrimination, either favoring or disfavoring religion. The free exercise claim fell on standing grounds, but if pressed, there very well could be found many a woman who have an abortion because religious faith compelled them to in a particular case. As Casey later recognized, it is a matter of conscience for which there is a range of views, including religiously guided. Case law changed here in Oregon v. Smith, but RFRA very well -- if evenly applied -- might get you the same place.
The majority also argued that the law was neutral and did not unconstitutionally favor or burden religion for Establishment Clause purposes. As with the Free Exercise prong, there was some good evidence that such a First Amendment argument had merit. At the very least, the "effect" of the law, to cite the then more respected "Lemon Test," was religiously discriminatory. The law favored a greatly disputed matter of religious and moral principle, making comparisons to theft or such off the mark. The op-ed reaffirms this point and it is to me a good framing.
Ronald Dworkin years ago raised a religious freedom argument in this area, noting matters of life and death are particularly likely to raise questions of religious belief. Some might argue that questions about abortion need not be about "religion" (see, e.g., atheist Nat Hentoff), but it belies the obvious that it is for many a matter of religious debate. And, as I have here over the years, if we go further and look at matters of conscience, it definitely is the case. As an influential lower court ruling noted:
No doubt in the opinion of many people the nature of a fetus [an embryo] as a human being is a matter of absolute moral certainty. In their view, perhaps in the view of some of the legislators who enacted this statute, abortion is considered the deliberate killing of a human being. We do not doubt the sincerity of those who hold this view, nor minimize the depth of their conviction in this regard. But under the Constitution, their judgment must remain a personal judgment, one that they may follow in their personal lives and seek to persuade others to follow, but a judgment they may not impose upon others by force of law.Certain things are left to the political process, this is left to personal judgment for various reasons, disputed religious/conscientious belief should not be enough for the government to favor one side over the other. Ideally.

Supporting librarians in adding data literacy skills to information literacy instruction
There is growing recognition among librarians that students are either making poor decisions about the quality of statistics, data and related visualizations or that they lack the ability to comprehend these resources altogether. Students often learn that numbers are objective, though data in the real world is rarely so. In fact, visualized data - even from authoritative sources - can sometimes be anything but objective.
To build students' capacity as thoughtful, active citizens, the project will train librarians in critical and essential aspects of data literacy and engage them in high-leverage, practical instructional strategies that can be used to directly impact students' data literacy capabilities.
Project outcomes include the development of webinars on data literacy, professional development modules drawn from archived webinars, conferences and case studies, and a data literacy handbook to be published online.
Start date: 10/1/2015
End date: 9/30/2017

UMSI Clinical Assistant Professor of Information Kristin Fontichiaro has received a $240,000 grant from the Institute for Museum and Library Services to fund her project, "Supporting Librarians in Adding Data Literacy Skills to Information Literacy Instruction." The award will be used to train librarians in providing data literacy services to students in accordance with current developments in data and information technology.
Traditionally, librarians have relied on subscription databases for connecting students to quality and authoritative sources of data. However, as incidences of manipulated or incorrect data reporting pepper the world of scholarly research, simply trusting any content – as Fontichiaro states in her proposal – whether on the open web or in scholarly journals, is a practice of the past.
The challenge, in our current world of data and information technology, is instilling in students a different way of thinking. While students often learn in school that numbers are neutral and objective, data in the world is rarely so; as a result, the need for careful human interpretation of data becomes crucial.
"An improved understanding of data practices means that better questions can be asked and better life decisions can be made from selecting a college to saving for retirement to assessing local and national political candidates," states Fontichiaro in her project proposal. "This impacts not just quality of individual life but the quality of participation in citizenship and democratic society."
Fontichiaro's project will address this challenge by improving the capacity of librarians to cultivate data literacy in students. The cross-disciplinary nature of school librarianship makes this the ideal position for helping students improve their understanding of data practices, such as interpreting statistics, data and visualizations while conducting research.
The first stage of this project will involve training librarians in critical information literacy skills, particularly in data and statistical literacy, through sustained professional development. Following that, the second stage will involve teaching high-leverage, practical and instructional strategies that librarians can use to directly impact student learning.
For this project, Fontichiaro will assemble a team of highly-skilled experts in information literacy, curriculum design, data literacy and statistical literacy to create a series of print and multimedia professional development materials. The resources will include webinars on data literacy, professional development modules drawn from archived webinars, conferences and case studies, and a data literacy handbook to be published online.
Participation in these events and interaction with the online resources will help Fontichiaro and her team evaluate current interest in data literacy instruction.
Supporting librarians in adding data literacy skills to information literacy instruction, Institute for Museum and Library Services: $240,000
The mission of the Institute of Museum and Library Sciences is to inspire libraries and museums to advance innovation, lifelong learning, and cultural and civic engagement.

When a senior editor from Newsweek goes on MSNBC to discuss conservatives who protest the massive tax and spend agenda of the Obama Administration, why shouldn't he join in the fun of disparaging them with juvenile sexual innuendo? After all, he's among friends and fellow travelers.
But eventually, someone may call that senior editor to account for his "pornographic" slurs, as St. Louis radio host Jamie Allman did to Newsweek's Daniel Gross on April 14.
Gross had appeared on MSNBC's "Countdown," on April 10 and told guest host David Shuster, "I think when it comes to tea bagging, the president should probably ignore this ... to get bogged down with what seems to be a fringe group of people throwing consumer products into the lakes and rivers of this nation, ah, doesn't seem to be worthy of his attention."
Allman called Gross on his statement immediately. "It disturbs me, your characterization of tea party individuals who you must know are more than a fringe group and are in fact your fellow Americans who seem to have an issue probably different than yours with your government," Allman said.
"What surprised me though," he continued, "I mean, come on, you're an author, you've reached high levels of Newsweek Magazine, a prestigious slick in the United States of America, and you resort to calling your fellow Americans who have an issue with their government 'tea baggers.'"
Gross said that there were different meanings to the term and he didn't know which one he and Shuster were using. Allman wasn't buying it, so Gross changed tack, saying he wasn't responsible for what Shuster said and, anyway, the protest organizers themselves used the term.
"Second of all, when you look at the e-mails and promotional literature, you see people saying, using 'tea bag' as a verb - "tea bag Obama,' 'tea bag Congress.' ... these are the people who are organizing this that are saying that ..."
However, Allman brought on Dana Loesch a tea party organizer "on a national level who's been in this from the get-go."
"I have never seen an e-mail cross my inbox that refers to what we're doing in that manner." Loesch then confronted Gross on his assertion that many of the tea parties are "fraudulent" and are not in fact grass roots-inspired but have been coordinated and encouraged by the "Republican and conservative establishment."
"In fact, here in St, Louis and in other cities," she said, "we're telling the politicians to stay away from the events."
When asked, Gross refused to tell Allman who he voted for, citing Gross "company policy."
The segment ended with this exchange:
ALLMAN: "Why is it company policy?" Allman pressed. "Is it because your journalists?"
GROSS: "Yes."
ALLMAN: "Ok, so if you're a journalist and not a pundit, why would you go on David Shuster's show and refer to tea party people like this?" Allman said. "You call them tea baggers and you demean them and you claim that it's all part of ah, Lipton's this and Lipton's that. You seem to, as a journalist, have quite an opinion."
GROSS: "I'm supposed to have an opinion about all kinds of things. It's part of my job," Gross said.
ALLMAN: "But you can't say who you voted for?"
GROSS; "I'm not involved in partisan politics."
ALLMAN: "So Newsweek's policy is that you can go on MSNBC and accuse your fellow Americans of fraud and call them 'tea baggers' and all kinds of pornographic ah, discussions, ah, ways of characterizing them but Newsweek won't allow you to say who you voted for?"
GROSS: "If that's how you want to interpret it, I guess I can't quibble with that. We can all reach our own conclusions."ALLMAN: "That's one of the reasons why I cancelled my subscription to Newsweek."

From the Shale Gas fields of Texas the team flew United Airlines to Denver and hopped straight into the cars heading North through Colorado, into Wyoming and up to the town of Riverton.
The flight put the extent of the of the Shale Gas industry in the southern United States into perspective, with thousands of wells dotted across the landscape from rural residential areas of Dish, across the urban areas of Fort Worth and into the agricultural areas north of Dallas. What was concerning to see was the extent of irrigated agriculture adjacent to the gas fields.
Pivot irrigation feeding corn and maize crops, much to supply the feedlots across the Southern United states, were a stunning green against the arid landscape of Texas, Oklahoma and Southern Colorado. You have to wonder about the longevity of this so-called co-existence with the potential for contamination impacts in groundwater to foreseeably impact on agricultural productivity and quality of water and food supply.
The take away experience for me from my time assessing the gas industry around Dallas and Fort Worth is that the gas industry has come to dominate not just landscape and community, but is now part of the zeitgeist of Texas. It has won over the political decision makers, the pro-industry policy settings are in place and now big gas is rolling out on a huge scale. It is on TV, it sponsors the football team, they operate next to schools and shopping centres. Gas is a short term revenue stream that US governments and corporations have rushed headlong to exploit, but many, and especially farmers, have come to see it as damaging to environmental and community health in the longer term. But the question no-one seems to be asking is at what is the true cost and what next? Who will own the legacy this industry leaves behind? The multi-national energy corporations?
Having left shale behind – we moved into coal country. The Colorado and Wyoming regions sit over a number of coal basins with the main target of this part of the tour being the Powder River Basin which runs through the heart of Wyoming.
Heading out of Denver, above the Denver Coal Basin, it only took a few minutes before we came across our first wells. Driving north we saw just how widespread coal seam gas is already around the area. On the outskirts of town derek pump heads dot the ladscape, only 100 or so metres apart. We could see as many as 20 at a time on the flat hay and corn fields that lay between residential estates. Like Forth Worth, many we within 100 metres of homes.
What was interesting was that very few of the pumps seemed operational and although it was early afternoon on Tuesday none of the drill rigs we saw were turning and no cars were moving around on the well pads. The rig sizes and pads were typically smaller but more numerous when compared to the larger multi-well shale gas operations in Texas.
What is clear from everything we have seen so far on the trip is that this industry only works if they can run a landscape scale grid of interconnected wells across the gas field. They need many and they need them regardless of the existing land use, so they can extract the maximum out of the field. This should serve as a warning of what this industry would look like across the cropping lands of the Liverpool and Moore Plains. There is no such thing as a few disparate wells, and even multi-well operations require many pads, compressor stations and the network of pipes and roads.
An industrial yard just a bit further up the road and still on the outskirts of town with 50 plus containers that we now know are the movable frack tanks that house the fracking water and fluids.
Further out of town and the wells seems to stop. The Denver Basin is quite small, but even still accessing that gas required quite a lot of wells. Further out of town the cropping stopped too and it was clear that, as is often the case where there is coal, there is high quality agricultural land above.
Continuing North as we pass into Wyoming with the shadow of the Rocky Mountains to the West we are heading towards the main coal bed methane reserves in the US. Around 50% of gas from coal seams in the US comes from the Rocky Mountains. Many of the aerial photos that have come to symbolize the impacts of this industry on the landscape have come from this area. Over the next week I will get a chance to talk with many more communities at the grassroots, who are dealing with the impacts of this industry.

I downloaded various images from web - clay roof, greenish boards and ivy leaves. Then after some tweaking in Photoshop I printed them on rice paper.
First of all I glued face down all leaves and some flowers from real Stamperia rice paper on a sheet of acetate and let that dry. Meanwhile I glued board images on the sides of house.
On roof I added thick coat of modeling paste and directly while it still was wet, I placed images with clay roof. Lightly pressing with thin stick, I traced lines, pushing paste and forming the underneath surface so that it looks like real clay roof. This usually have to be left overnight to dry. After drying you must glue image more carefully to the base.
Afterwards I painted edges and corners with Tim Holt crackle paint and let it crack. I also inked those edges with Vintage Photo Distress ink.
Next part was to make ivy vine. For the vine itself I used floral wire and green floral tape. I tied two wires together to make small petioles where I could attach leaves and taped it all with tape. Than I cut all leaves from acetate and made them in so called Sospeso Trasparente technique, where you need to heat them over heat source (candle) and then when the acetate is softened, you emboss it with wooden embossing stylus. Than I just attached all leaves to petioles with hot glue gun and the house was ready!

High Risk Investment Trading foreign exchange on margin carries a high level of risk, and may not be suitable for all investors. The high degree of leverage can work against you as well as for you. Before deciding to trade foreign exchange you should carefully consider your investment objectives, level of experience, and risk appetite.
The possibility exists that you could sustain a loss of some or all of your initial investment and therefore you should not invest money that you cannot afford to lose. You should be aware of all the risks associated with FOREX trading, and seek advice from an independent financial advisor if you have any doubts.

Sad Story of Decades of Exploitation of the Disabled . . . in Iowa!
Bowdoin College and Free Speech!11 Mar
Bowdoin College and Free Speech!
For those of us who loved the movie Gettysburg and will forever associate Bowdoin College with the brilliant, if somewhat academic, military tactician Joshua Chamberlain, this news is chilling.
The fourth most highly ranked liberal arts school in the U.S. believes that freedom of association no longer works in the U.S., at least for Christians.
The leadership of the Intervarsity Christian Fellowship chapter on campus are being told they must sign a statement that people of alternate sexualities are eligible for leadership in their group. The belief is that, since Maine state law prohibits discrimination on the basis of sexual orientation, there should be no other additional standards to those in Maine law for eligibility to lead in this Christian group.
What? As the article says, are they going to apply that to leadership of dance groups (you can't discriminate against non-dancers) or foreign student groups (you can't discriminate against people who have never traveled outside the U.S.)?
Scary ground toward which we head.
Poverty . . . Any Ideas?31 Jan
This piece, on worldwide poverty, brings to mind our microcosm in the U.S., as addressed by the President in the State of the Union address Tuesday night (January 28, 2014).
I had some thoughts on the wage inequality that the President raised. I don't believe it will be touched by raising either the federal employees' minimum wage to $10.40 an hour, nor the country's minimum wage to $10.40 an hour.
First of all, most federal employees already make far more than $10.40 an hour, so that statement was just window dressing anyway.
Secondly, what can be done on $440 a week? Not much here. Even two married people, both making minimum wage, would be barely able to scrape by on $880 a week in coastal Virginia.
Should we federally control prices? In a free market? Never. That would be the worst of Soviet communism, come to fruition on our own soil.
So how do we equip people to live in this expensive economy?
Certainly not by preparing them to be minimum wage workers all life long.
Our newspaper, not a bastion of liberal nor of conservative thought, laid it all out again last week (these statistics are well known and have often been reported by bipartisan sources): point #1) there is a huge difference in wages between high school graduates (or dropouts) and college graduates, point #2) college graduates tend to marry each other and point #3) college graduates are the ones who still believe in the institution of marriage and embark on it, trying to make it last (high school graduates and dropouts tend to be the ones who believe that the entire institution of marriage is flawed so we should all just cohabitate whenever we wish).
I have had people who don't believe in the institution of marriage try to give me anecdotal evidence that suggests the above points are not true. Of course, there are exceptions to every rule. But the points are true.
So, given that, I was less than encouraged that neither the State of the Union nor its rebuttal led to a discussion of strengthening the family.
It seems that finishing college and embarking on long-lasting marriages is the way forward economically for Americans.
Yes, we used to be able to make it in single-earner households. Some, by drawing down their requirements, still do. But most of us do not. World War II changed that by putting women to work. The economy grew to the point that it costs the wages of a husband plus the wages of a wife to live.
Society shifted. Life is like that.
Any constructive ideas from others about the way forward?
Three Questions to Ask Before Weighing in on a Controversy . . .16 Dec
Rape Insurance??? What our Language Says . . .16 Dec
Those in Michigan (and nationwide) who object to Michigan's official policy, written into law last week, that abortions are not a covered service required to be provided by insurance companies, have taken on a new tactic to express their anger.
Coverage for abortions now requires a separate rider in Michigan, sometimes from a different insurance company or sometimes paid for by the individual if her employer has a moral conflict with covering her abortions.
Opponents are calling these riders "rape insurance."
Ah, yes, use hyperbole to bring up the extremely small percentage of abortions that are requested due to rape. Then drag that language front and center!
They say the people who control the language also control the dialogue. This is not a time for conservatives to passively sit back and let the language be hijacked this way.
When I was younger, insurance companies often had separate riders for maternity insurance. We didn't purchase one, even when trying for a brother or sister for Joey (he was born at the local naval hospital and cost us a sum total of $16). We had intended to have our second child, and any subsequent children, born at home and to pay the midwife out of pocket.
Quaint concept that–paying out of pocket for the things we want. We now think everything our heart desires must be covered by someone else's funding, don't we?
Thus we have an outcry when those who desire an abortion can't find a way to get them free (read: at taxpayer expense or at the expense of the other people employed by their companies).
I categorically object to the term "rape insurance."
It is a false categorization of riders which are making people pay for their own abortions.
Morally, I don't intend to pay for them. You have the right to have an abortion. You also have the right to find a way to pay for it that does not involve me.
Just sayin'
It is Not Good to Legislate from a Place of Woundedness!8 Oct
I read a blog post once in which a young man was interviewed. He was a child molester who went after pre-pubescent boys. And he told of how he had been molested as a pre-pubescent boy. He didn't think what he was doing to the other boys was particularly harmful but . . . even if it was, he didn't care. His empathy mechanism had died in childhood, when someone first molested him.
There is a gasp of indignation when something like this happens. We mourn the loss of innocence of the young child whose empathy was stripped away. Yet we realize we can't just turn him loose on an unsuspecting world to lash out against others for the rest of his days.
In many ways, we all can lose our empathy mechanism, in whole or in part.
There are many who have spoken of feeling like their childhood was "on the outside looking in" at the families they presumed were happy when theirs was not. That is sad. Perhaps we have all felt a bit of that at times, but some children grow up feeling it constantly.
Problem is, their empathy mechanism can shut off from that, too. Particularly if their feeling of being an outsider transforms into a desire to take revenge on those they felt had things better than they did. They may, in time, feel as though they are divinely appointed avengers to make sure that those who got so much in childhood don't carry right on being privileged their whole life through.
If they get into a position of power, they may very well try to make rules that are not good rules . . . because those rules come from that wounded place inside, that child who was thwarted so much that his empathy mechanism shut down.
I have been feeling that that is happening this week, as I have watched the executive branch of our government lash out again and again, against many things that are normal and wholesome in our land.
World War II veterans traveling across the nation to visit their memorial on the National Mall.
Senior citizens from the U.S. and many other countries traveling to the Grand Canyon on a bus.
People trying to vacation at an inn on the Blue Ridge Parkway after making reservations months ago.
People trying to have a meal at a historic restaurant in nearby Yorktown, Virginia but finding that the restaurant is leased in a building belonging to the National Park Service.
And now, dead servicemembers coming back from Afghanistan with no funds being given to their families to fly out to Dover Air Force Base to meet the remains of their loved one. If the loved one is still alive and in a hospital in Germany, no funds to fly the family over there to spend time with the injured servicemember, even if he might be critically injured and end up dying . . .
What, in the name of all that is holy and good, are we doing? This stuff could be fixed with a memo from the President, who heads up the executive branch. I am not going to say that he is the one so lacking in empathy as to make all of these cruel choices, but I will say that he could put a stop to them with a stroke of his pen.
Is he possibly grandstanding, using these people as human shields to try to force the side opposing him to grant him, quickly, the concessions he desires? Only God knows his heart, but I will say that he has not come across as warm and empathetic to any of the above groups this week. And his executive branch, particularly the National Park Service, which works for the Department of the Interior, has run amuck.
If you don't have a dad who served in World War II, can you still empathize with the veterans of that war? Of course.
If you don't have elderly parents heading for the Grand Canyon, can you still empathize with the seniors whose bus was turned away from that national park this week? Of course. You can empathize even if you were raised in a family so poor that it never took vacations. Or a broken family that had no concept of vacations . . .
Can you empathize with strangers trying to stay in a Blue Ridge Parkway inn or trying to eat in a Yorktown restaurant? Of course. And you can sympathize with the businesses operating the inn and the restaurant, private businesses that now have employees who need to pay bills and are not working . . .
Most of all, you can empathize with the parents and spouses of the slain military members, even if you have never personally had a familymember in the military. Your heart can ache, knowing how much it would hurt to have to go claim the remains of your own child or spouse . . .
In all of these situations, we can have empathy and should have empathy. If our empathy mechanism is broken, that is not normal. We should not expect everyone to join us in a "who cares" vengeful attitude toward these very normal families trying to take a trip, especially a trip that ends with claiming the remains of a loved one.
I don't know where the orders to disrupt normal American families as vengefully as possible have been originating during this shutdown, but I know who can stop them with the stroke of a pen.
As I have heard more than one person say this week: "Mr. President, tear down those barriers!"

San Diego Solar Panel Cleaning
Window Magic provides professional solar panel cleaning throughout San Diego.
Investing in solar power is a big step in saving money and our environment. To keep your system working at its peak, it is so important to keep your solar panels clean.
The area around your home and the amount of road dust encountered determines how often the solar panels should be cleaned. Cleaning your solar panels once a month is the suggested method for achieving optimal performance for your solar panel investment. We offer scheduled solar panel cleaning services for quarterly, semi-annually, and annual appointments as well.
A key part of maintaining the solar powered battery charging system is keeping the panel clean. The amount of power that a panel will produce is directly related to the intensity of sunlight that reaches your internal crystals. A dirty panel will allow less light to reach the crystals resulting in lower power output. A layer of dust or road grime will reduce power output by 15 to 25%. Combining dust with leaves and debris that cover two or three of the individual cells can cut output power by 50 to 75%. Use of the basic maintenance tips, regular inspections and regular solar panel cleaning will assure optimum performance from the solar charging system.

On May 27, 2016, US Naval Machinist Kristian Saucier pled guilty for taking photos inside the attack submarine he had been working on. The case attracts attention due to its similarity to the Clinton email controversy.
According to US News and World Report, Saucier is sentenced on August 19, 2016 by a "federal judge rebuffing a request for probation in light of authorities deciding not to prosecute Hillary Clinton for mishandling classified information on a private email server as secretary of state."
Saucier's attorney Derrick Hogan argued in a court filing that Clinton had been "engaging in acts similar to Mr. Saucier with information of much higher classification." Hogan also stated, "It would be unjust and unfair for Mr. Saucier to receive any sentence other than probation for a crime those more powerful than him will likely avoid."
Saucier is sentenced by US District Judge Stefan Underhill to one year in prison and a $100 fine, along with six months home confinement, 100 hours of community service, and a ban on owning guns. Prosecutors had asked for six years in prison.
Greg Rinckey, another defense attorney for Saucier, says he isn't sure if the judge was affected by the media attention comparing Saucier's case with Clinton's email controversy. However, he states Underhill "cryptically made some comments about selective prosecution and how that didn't play any factor. … Do I think it may have? Sure. But I think there was enough mitigation that the judge was able to depart from the sentencing guidelines [on that basis alone]." (US News & World Report, 08/19/16)

Previcox for Dogs Side Effects and Benefits
Previcox for dogs is a non steroidal anti inflammatory medication that is only available with a prescription. This drug is prescribed by vets to control an inflammation and pain that is caused by arthritis, which affects many breeds as they age. As an anti inflammatory for dogs Previcox can be extremely effective and offer numerous benefits, but this drug also has possible side effects as well. The benefits include pain relief and a reduction in inflammation that affects the mobility and comfort level of your dog. Previcox for dogs can eliminate or reduce limping, a decrease in usual activities, stiffness in the joints, and even lameness that is caused by arthritis, and this drug may cause your pet to show dramatic results in a short time.
Previcox is one of the Rimadyl alternatives that may be used by vets, and there are some serious side effects that have been reported. Each dog is different, and may respond differently to this medication. For many owners an improvement may be seen within a few days, while other dogs may need longer to get the best possible results. There are a number of side effects associated with Previcox for dogs, and these range from bothersome to very serious or even fatal. Vomiting, jaundice, changes in urination, dark colored urine or a complete lack of urination, skin changes, diarrhea, and signs of blood in the stool are all possible side effects of this medication. Previcox is used to give pain relief for dogs, but if any serious side effects occur you should stop the medicine immediately and consult a vet right away.
Previcox for dogs can also cause a decrease in appetite, as well as problems with the digestive system. This is true of almost all NSAIDs, for both dogs and humans. Sometimes this class of drugs can also cause problems with kidney or liver function as well. Whether your vet prescribes Novox for dogs, Previcox, or another medication for pain and inflammation it is important to use it exactly as directed. For many dogs the benefits of this drug outweigh the possible side effects.

Derby vs Leeds United Predictions, Betting Tips & Preview
Match Preview
Derby vs Leeds United Predictions, Betting Tips and Preview
Leeds United and Derby County are two sides heading in different directions, but Leeds fan fear the International break came at the wrong time for them. Certainly not for Derby, who have re-grouped and appointed a new manager. Below are our match predictions, betting tips and preview.
Derby County vs Leeds United
Venue: iPro Stadium
Kick-off: Saturday 15th October, 3pm
Derby have won only two games so far this season, edging out Preston on the road and then toppling a poor, poor Cardiff side 2-0, just like Leeds United did. Derby obviously had issues on and off the field and now old boss Steve McClaren is set to take the reigns from the departed Nigel Pearson.It's a decision that hasn't been met with open arms by all county fans, with a percentage believing Powell was the obvious candidate for the job. Still, it's always a fresh start with a new man at the helm and it usually produces a response from the players. County will be hoping for just that when they host Leeds this weekend.Leeds United will hope they haven't been robbed of momentum by the International break. They'd won seven of 10 and four of six on their travels. They've historically had troubles against County, at least until recently. United have won only lost one of their last five meetings.
Match Predictions and Betting Tips
Derby County are 17/20 with William Hill and given their circumstances and form, I'm surprised they're so clearly favoured. The draw can be backed at 13/5 with Bet Victor whilst Leeds must be considered value at 4/1 with Bet365.
I do think that whilst the appointment of a new manager gives most clubs a boost, McClaren is a manager that's been here very recently and not everyone will be thrilled to see him return. I do think that if Derby make a slow start here or even fall behind, then the crowds could well get on their backs once again and make it a tougher afternoon. Back Leeds United +0.5AH at 21/20 with Bet365.
Derby have broke Leeds down twice or more seven times in the last nine games, but United are starting to look a much meaner unit with the partnership of Bartley and Jansonn growing. Leeds have allowed just four goals in their last seven games. Derby have lost their last four at home and failed to win their first three, with even League Two Carlisle taking a point. It's not easy to suddenly turn that kind of form on it's head.Back a 1-1 draw at odds of 5/1 with Bet Victor.
Chris Wood, scorer of an 88th minute here last season, looks head and shoulders above any Derby striker at the moment and has had a good week with New Zealand. He seems the most likely scorer here.Back Chris Wood to score at odds of 2/1 with Bet365.

Why Import Finance?
This importer of contemporary furniture had previously relied on Trade Finance facilities from a bank. However, the requirement for real property security, which they were unable to provide, restricted their ability to obtain increased funding. Having to pay overseas suppliers requiring a 30% upfront deposit, plus the balance prior to shipment was placing significant pressure on cashflow. The new trade finance facility provided Letters of Credit, greatly improving cashflow.
Why Scottish Pacific?
The import finance facility offered by Scottish Pacific was far more flexible than bank offers. The ability to access increased funding without having to attach real estate as collateral was a real boon to the client. The friendly, prompt service provided by our sales and operations staff made it an easy decision to work with Scottish Pacific.
To find out more about how Scottish Pacific can help your business, please visit our services page.

Read: 19 September, 2010
I bought the book because I kept seeing it everywhere and I thought – why not? Then it sat on my shelf for a long time as I read other books on my reading list that were a higher priority.
When my dad came to visit, he was looking over my bookshelves and saw that I had The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo. I admitted that I hadn't read it yet, and he told me that I absolutely must. Well, with an endorsement like that, how could I refuse?
I say this because it tainted much of my experience of the book. When I got to the anal rape scene, for example, all I kept thinking about was my dad reading it… and liking it. Yes, I know, the book is excellent and I'm sure that my father's endorsement was not predicated on a predilection for anal rape. Still, though, it made reading about anal rape even more uncomfortable that it is normally.
Not that I normally read about anal rape…
But apart from all that, this was an amazing book. It's a mystery – a disgraced journalist is hired by a wealthy businessman to solve the 40-year-old murder of his niece. But it's far more than that. The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo is a statement about misogyny and violence towards women. In one way or another, each of the book's plots and subplots hinge on hatred towards women. Larsson strikes that very delicate balance between making his point without being it. Again and again, he shows us violence against women, but he never allows it to normalize. It's as horrific the last time as it is the first.
And boy, is it ever horrific! The Girl With The Dragon Tattoo was an extremely uncomfortable book to read. Larsson takes society's dirty little secrets and shoves them right in the reader's face with unrelenting force. But the writing is so masterfully executed that I found myself unable to put the book down, even while my head and stomach both were reeling.
When my dad was making his pitch for the book, he said that it's incredibly long, but that the style is so accessible that he was able to finish it in under a week. It took me only a couple of days. It takes a while to get into, introducing the vast network of characters slowly, and it might be easy to give up within the first couple dozen pages. But stick with it, the payoff is well worth the wait.

Sometimes people wonder how they are expected to dress at a church they've never visited before. Since the Bible presents no dress code, aside from simple modesty, we don't make any rules either.
Like most people, our members try to make their worship time at church a special time. This is often reflected in the way they dress. However, on any given Sunday you may see running shoes and high heels, jeans and suits, open collars and ties.
When a person dresses out of love for God, the choice of dress (casual or more formal) is acceptable to God . . . and to us.
Come, your hearts and voices raising,
Christ the Lord with gladness praising,
Loudly sing his love amazing.
~ Paul Gerhardt, 1607-76

What is Concierge Medicine?
Concierge medicine is simply a new name for an old concept: a physician-patient relationship based on mutual respect and trust, built over time.
The honor of caring for patients in the complete way to which they are entitled unfortunately has been eroded by the intrusion of the insurance system into the exam room. By removing the third-party payer from the relationship with your family doctor, your physician is able to act as your advocate, with no interference or conflict of interest from outside parties. Concierge medicine restores the direct connection between the physician and the patient, as it should be.
Today's primary care physician sees an average of 20 to 40 patients each day, and oversees as many as 4,000 patients. Doctors are allocated an average of seven to fifteen minutes per visit.
The level of medical care suffers in a healthcare system where quantity supersedes quality. It is not surprising that within this dysfunctional system, patients are frustrated by delays in obtaining appointments, visits that start late, unreturned phone calls, harried office staff, obstacles in obtaining prescriptions, and hurried doctor visits that don't fully address their concerns. Patients feel their medical needs are ignored as doctors rarely have time to counsel them or answer important medical and health questions. Visits are disorganized, impersonal "factory assembly lines" during which no one appears to actually know the patient's name or provide individualized care.
Concierge medicine is the innovative model of care that delivers superior, personalized, accessible care to you.
What Sets Us Apart?
You demand excellence. You seek the most qualified advisors with regards to finances, investments, and other matters important to you and your family. You should expect that same level of knowledgeable and personalized attention from your doctor and invest in your most valuable asset: a longer, healthier life.
