Kabul, Afghanistan — EACH morning, the policewoman puts on her uniform, goes to her precinct office, sits behind a bare desk. And waits.
She is one of several officers appointed to make it easier for women to report domestic violence. Her job ought to be one of the busiest in the district. Instead, Pushtoon, who goes by one name, has one of the loneliest.
"Last week we had one woman. Before that there had not been anyone for several weeks," she said, twisting hands left scarred by her attempt at suicide years ago in a Taliban jail. "Women are afraid to come, but we are not allowed to go to them.
"The police chiefs will not let us. They say it is unsafe for women officers," she said.
Five years after the end of the Taliban era, there are new opportunities for women in Afghanistan, and notable efforts are underway to make their daily lives better, especially in Kabul, the capital. Improving the status of women has been a core goal of U.S. policy here, and Secretary of State Condoleezza Rice said at a congressional hearing in 2005 that enshrining women's equality in the Afghan Constitution was an important advance for the entire region.
But conversations with dozens of women suggest that each step forward has been a struggle. Afghan society remains deeply uncomfortable with the idea of women gaining independence and authority. The Taliban's resurgence has reversed incremental gains, particularly in the south. If the Taliban incursions spread, more women are likely to lose ground.
Families in the south that recently began allowing their daughters to go to school and wives to enroll in vocational programs have pulled them out because of Taliban attacks.
"Women's future depends so much on security. As much as se-curity deteriorates, women's situation deteriorates," said Masuda Jalal, former acting minister of women's affairs. "At the first sign of insecurity, the head of the family protects his women and children, and the first measure they take is to keep them inside the house."
Women who have gained ground haven't talked of the constitutional principles of equality. Instead, they focus on the respect accorded women by the Koran, and on the importance of mothers and homes, where older women have long held positions of power.
Their goal, often unstated, is to convince fathers and brothers, husbands and sons that when a woman is empowered, the males benefit as well. They hope their daughters will at least have more choices than they had.
Women are learning to drive, some at their husbands' urging so they can help with family errands. Small numbers have opened bank accounts. Women have become a regular presence on television talk shows, and they deliver weather reports and other news features.
According to Farsona Simimi, a popular television talk show host, "There is a quiet revolution here." But, she added, "I do not know whether it will succeed."
Pushing a stone uphillTHREE times in the last century, the status of women has improved, only to suffer reversals.
The first time was in the 1920s, when ruler Amanullah Khan abolished the requirement that women be completely covered in public and encouraged his wife to wear a hat without a veil. He was ousted by the mullahs.
The lot of women improved again in the 1960s, when four women were elected to parliament. One of them was the mother of Nasrine Gross, now an Afghan American lecturer in sociology at Kabul University.
A family album contains photos of her mother and several friends at a picnic 40 years ago. They wear knee-length dresses with short sleeves; a couple of them have beehive hairdos, strands blowing free in the summer breeze as they lean against a sleek car. Two men in Western clothing stand nearby.
"No one can believe these pictures were taken here," Gross said.
In the 1970s, political turmoil stymied women's progress. But in the next decade, ruling communists prohibited women from wearing burkas and appointed many to government posts. More than 50 were given judgeships, and many others took positions in the police and healthcare professions.
When the Taliban took power in 1996, it banned all education for women, even small girls. It removed women from almost all jobs outside the home and required them to cover their faces in public by wearing a burka. In some areas, it demanded that house windows be painted black so women could not see out and men could not see in. Women were whipped in public for the smallest infraction.
Educated Afghans and international aid workers say the U.S.-backed government of President Hamid Karzai has done little besides removing the Taliban restrictions. He has only one woman in his Cabinet of 25 and none among his top advisors.
Several Afghan women said that they had encouraged Karzai to do small things, such as have his wife accompany him to public events, but that he had never done so.
In the name of IslamRAHALA Salim was one of those who became a judge under the communists, and she recalls watching in horror as the Taliban dismantled every vestige of protection for women.
"As a judge, when I saw women coming to me crying because they had been abused, I felt responsible, I felt I had to defend their rights," said Salim, who was removed from her post by the Taliban. Under its rule, she said, "if a man was accused of rape, it was the woman who was arrested and blamed."
Salim knew from her legal studies that Sharia, or Islamic law, offered women some legal protection. The Koran and hadiths, the sayings of the prophet Muhammad, are open to an array of interpretations. And early Islam glorifies several women, including Muhammad's daughter Fatima, who is portrayed as an independent leader of her people.
"We have to know the real Sharia; we have to be able to point to passages in the holy Koran and say, 'Here, read this,' " Salim said. "In Islamic history, men have been the boss. They want to be the boss forever. That's why they never want women to appear in public, but that is not Islam; that is cultural tradition."
The notion of Islam as a pillar of freedom came from Salim's mother.
"My mother didn't have any sons, and so my father took a second wife, and it made her extremely sad and it made her life very hard," Salim said. "She told me, 'Unless you can have enough education, you can never stand against men. You must learn Islam so you can struggle against them.' "
During the Taliban era, Salim began to teach the Koran. Once a week, 70 women would gather for classes, sometimes at her house, sometimes elsewhere so the Taliban would not become suspicious.
"l would cook something as if we were just gathering for a meal, and then we would recite the holy Koran and discuss Islamic questions and then political issues," she recalled.
After the Taliban fled, Salim ran for parliament. But she understood that she would need the mullahs behind her, and when she was elected, she asked them whether she could address families in the mosque. Her appeal opened the door for women to enter there. In her district, women never had; they prayed at home.
"It was the first time that women saw the inside of the mosque," she said. Then, with the mullahs' assent, she asked the families to send their daughters to school.
Other women have reached similar conclusions: that if they are to persuade men to stand behind them, they will need mullahs as allies and Islam as a shield.
Jalal, the former women's minister, has convened meetings of mullahs to discuss Koranic interpretations of women's rights. A meeting last summer in Kabul drew 100 mullahs from around the country. She also has asked new "women's councils" to work closely with local mullahs. So far, the councils are active primarily in Kabul and on its outskirts.
In Chakadera, a district at the foot of mountains about an hour north of Kabul, Maseema Sakhi acts as the local liaison to the Women's Affairs Ministry. A tiny, graceful woman of 45, she went to college and teaches at the local grade school. But she married a village man and lives in a typical Afghan mud compound with several generations of family, where chickens and turkeys roam the yard.
She has made overtures to local mullahs, so when there are domestic problems they consider coming to her.
Recently a girl arrived in the village in tattered clothes, exhausted and battered. She had run away from her husband's family. She said she had been badly beaten and was afraid she would be killed.
In the past, the elders and the mullah might have forced the girl to tell them where she came from and taken her back, all but condemning her to death. This time, the mullah sent for Sakhi.
"She had walked three days and three nights through the mountains without stopping. Her feet were torn," Sakhi said. "She said she was so miserable in her home that she wished a wild animal would eat her. We took her to the women's ministry, and now she is in a shelter and she calls me her mother."
'Someone should listen'PUSHTOON, the policewoman, never thought of herself as a crusader.
Her mother died when she was an infant. Brought up by her father in Logar province, south of Kabul, she gained a rudimentary knowledge of reading.
At 13, she was married to a man many years her senior. At 15, she bore the first of her six children. The family moved to Pakistan, where her husband, who was often unemployed, took up with a younger woman.
Depressed, confused and only dimly aware of how the Taliban treated women, Pushtoon returned to Logar to claim a piece of land her father had left her when he died. She wanted to sell it to help support her family.
But the Taliban arrested her, saying she must have killed her husband since he wasn't with her. Her only relatives were her husband's family, and they wanted the land for themselves. The Taliban accused her of murder and took her to the women's prison in Kabul.
Locked in a cell barely large enough for a bed, she became desperate.
"I was shouting and shouting that I was innocent, and no one was listening," she recalled, nervously touching the braid on the cuff of her police uniform.
After six months, she shut herself in a tiny, squalid latrine, lighted a match and held it to her clothing.
"The flames licked over the material and burned my hair and was burning my face and burned my hands," she said. "I burned myself to die there. That would have been better than a life in prison. I knew no one in Kabul. No one came to visit me. I had two daughters and four boys and they were in Pakistan and I missed them."
But she didn't die. And a few days later the Taliban released her. She still has scars on her hands and a dark, pitted mark on her forehead from the flames. She covers it with the ornamental red makeup that some Afghan women daub above their brows.
And she has a cause.
She cited the case of a woman who sought her help: "Her husband didn't have a job. He was home all the time and he beat her every day. He broke two of her teeth, and he put a pillow over her mouth when he hit her so she wouldn't shout and so the neighbors would not hear."
Such women are often afraid that if they complain, their husbands will kill them and they will bring dishonor to their families, Pushtoon said.
"I am doing this job now," Pushtoon said, "because when a woman says she is innocent, someone should listen."
'Happy Morning'FARSONA Simimi has taken a different road, becoming a popular television talk show host on the Tolo network, one of Afghanistan's new private stations.
She uses the nonthreatening idiom of shows such as "Bride" and "Happy Morning" to help women think about asserting their rights and to help men understand the problems women face. She often alternates taboo topics with ones that even the most conservative men would not oppose.
"Today I had two subjects on the family program: how to teach a child and how to get dark spots out of a shirt," she said with a smile.
Dressed modestly in a high-necked white blouse and an ankle-length white skirt, only her veil suggests her independent views: It perches so far back on her head that it looks in danger of slipping off, and it shows a swath of her slightly hennaed hair.
"When I first was on TV, my family was afraid for me," she said. "People said to my husband, 'How can you let her do that?' "
A year ago, one of Simimi's female colleagues was slain. Many people think it was because someone in her family considered her too modern. She wore blouses and tight jeans and went to clubs at night, said colleagues at Tolo.
It has taken almost three years, but Simimi has found that her audience is beginning to trust her. Women telephone her at the station and send her e-mails, and when she attends weddings or other large gatherings, they seek her out to ask questions or tell her their stories.
Her greatest regret is that television cannot yet show the cracked ribs and the burns and the other abuses women suffer.
"But we can talk about some of these things. One of our main topics on the family program is men beating their wives . And we talk about arranged marriage from many perspectives, [such as] the father picks a person and doesn't talk about it or discuss it with the woman."
When she looks at her own family, she sees the problem writ small. Her young son recently told her as she was leaving for work, "Mama, you must wear a bigger scarf."
"Now, where did he get that idea? He is only 8, but he spends time with his father, with his grandfather — they must say some of these things," she said.
"It will take a long, long time for things to change. We must wait for this generation to grow up, and then maybe in two more generations we will see some changes."
The sewing circleOUTSIDE Kabul, where villages sit lonely in the mountain desert, women's prospects are far bleaker. In Chakadera, Sakhi's village, formation of a sewing circle was seen as a major advance. It allowed women to meet and share their stories. But the conversations often turn to domestic violence.
Chakadera was on the front line when the Taliban took over, and its women were forbidden even to go to the village market. They married first cousins because those were the only people they could meet. Now the women gather in a school room to sew, to laugh a little, cry, and support those among them most battered by their men.
But no one knows how long the sewing group will last. In early autumn, a nearby school was burned. If there is another attack, the women might not be allowed to go out, or their daughters to go to school.
For now, Sakhi said, "everybody can come here to sew and weave and forget her sorrows for two or three hours each week."
One of the women, Malalai, 29, managed a smile even though she expressed little affection for her husband, who forbids her even to buy clothes for their children without his permission. Married at 15, she was a mother of three boys and two girls before she was 24. She wants a different life for her girls.
"I want them to get an education, to work, and only then to get married," she said.
What will happen if the Taliban returns?
She brushed her hand over several spools of thread sitting before her on the floor, knocking each one over as if they represented the sewing circle, the dreams for her daughters, the possibility of a different future.
"Gone," she said. All gone.
Rubin recently was on assignment in Afghanistan.

Truth, faith, hope collide in Milwaukee Rep's 'How the World Began'
You can take as gospel truth that when a high school biology teacher in rural Kansas tells a classroom of students that creationism is "gobbledygook," there's going to be an uproar.
That's not exactly what Susan Pierce said to her students, but it's close enough to offend 16-year-old Micah Staab, for whom every word in the Book of Genesis is true. The ensuing conflict propels Catherine Trieschmann's "How the World Began," the intermission-free play now being staged by the Milwaukee Repertory Theater under Brent Hazelton's direction.
Susan's carelessly made comment couldn't have come at a worse time.
Newly arrived from New York City - and brand-new to teaching - Susan is five months pregnant and single. She needs this job's health insurance. She has gone through a painful breakup. She is no longer young - Trieschmann indicates that Susan is around 40 - and therefore running out of time to find a career and herself.
While she needs to dial down in the early scenes so that she leaves herself more room, Deborah Staples conveys all of that, as well as the accompanying insecurity that can make Susan prickly as well as vulnerable - defensive to a fault, precisely because she so badly wants to make connections.
That makes her a lot like Micah, who has some baggage of his own. A loner and an orphan, he views the tornado that recently leveled his town and killed 17 people as a sign of God's wrath - and God's displeasure with him.
In an auspicious Rep debut, Ben Charles gives us an adolescent's fervent, ennobling idealism - as well as the frighteningly self-referential and single-minded intensity that is its obverse side.
Charles' often stiff body language embodies Micah's barely contained anger. But Charles' quick movements and hungry eyes suggest a frightened animal who wants to be fed - or a bewildered boy needing guidance and love, which complicates Micah's disappointment when Susan fails to fit his overly exacting bill.
Neither does sixty-something Gene Dinkel (Marty Lodge), who took Micah in and gave him a home. Folksy and friendly, Gene just wants everyone to get along. He is also the weakest link in this script - less a character than a catalyst, whose primary purpose is to stir the dramatic pot through his well-intentioned but clumsy efforts to help Susan and Micah find common ground.
"World" wonders whether they ever can, even as it makes clear that, for all their flaws and differences, Susan and Micah are fundamentally good people who need each other - and who are more similar than they realize.
This generous attempt to see a problem and those fighting about it from all sides is light-years removed from agitprop like "Inherit the Wind." Trieschmann's play isn't as dramatically successful. But it has the courage to ask tougher questions - while looking much harder at just what it is that we'll reap if we don't figure out how to talk through the answers, together.
"How the World Began" continues through Feb. 24 at the Stiemke Studio, 108 E. Wells St. For tickets, visit milwaukeerep.com or call (414) 224-9490.

Families of victims of the Newtown school shooting joined President Barack Obama in the Rose Garden Wednesday to express their disappointment at the Senate's failure to pass gun control legislation.
"We return home disappointed, but not defeated," said Mark Barden, the father of first-grader Daniel who died in the elementary school massacre in Newtown, Conn.
"We will not be defeated. We are not defeated and we will not be defeated," Barden said. "Our hearts are broken, our spirit is not."
Following Barden's remarks, Obama slammed the Senate for putting politics over the victims of gun violence.
"A minority in the U.S. Senate decided it wasn't worth it," Obama said. "They blocked gun reforms even while these families looked on from the gallery."
"There were no coherent arguments as to why we wouldn't do this. It came down to politics," he added. "They caved to pressure, and they started looking for an excuse — any excuse — to vote no."
But, he added, "this effort is not over."
"I'm assuming that the emotions that we've all felt since Newtown, the emotions that we've all felt since Tucson and Aurora and Chicago...I'm assuming that's not a temporary thing," he concluded. "I'm assuming our expressions of grief and our commitment to do something different to prevent these things from happening are not empty words."
"Sooner or later we are going to get this right. The memories of these children demand it. And so do the American people."

Adopted 1994
The American Dental Association developed these dental practice parameters for voluntary use by practicing dentists. The parameters are intended, foremost, as an aid to clinical decision making and thus, they describe clinical considerations in the diagnosis and treatment of oral health conditions. Evaluation in the context of these parameters includes diagnosis.
Additionally, parameters will assist the dental profession by providing the basis on which the profession's commitment to high-quality care can be demonstrated and can continue to be improved.
The dental practice parameters are condition-based, presenting an array of possible diagnostic and treatment considerations for oral health conditions. Condition-based parameters, rather than procedure-based parameters, were determined to be the most useful because this approach recognizes the need for integrated treatments of oral conditions rather than emphasizing isolated treatment procedures. The parameters are also oriented toward the process of care and describe elements of diagnosis and treatment.
While the parameters describe the common elements of diagnosis and treatment, it is acknowledged that unique clinical circumstances, and individual patient preferences, must be factored into clinical decisions. This requires the dentist's careful professional judgment. Balancing individual patient needs with scientific soundness is a necessary step in providing care.
It is understood that treatment provided by the dentist may deviate from the parameters, in individual cases, depending on the clinical circumstances presented by the patient. This should be documented and explained to the patient.
The elements of care that are described in the parameters were derived from a consensus of professional opinion. This consensus included expert opinion on the topic and the clinical experience of practicing dentists. In addition, the research literature, and parameters and guidelines of other dental organizations were reviewed.
The American Dental Association recognizes that other interested parties, such as payers, courts, legislators and regulators may also opt to use these parameters. The Association encourages users to become familiar with these parameters as the profession's statement on the scope of clinical oral health care.
However, these parameters are not designed to address considerations outside of the clinical arena and, therefore, may not be directly applicable to all health policy issues.
Furthermore, these parameters are intended to describe the range of acceptable treatment modalities. They are intended as educational resources, not legal requirements. As such, the parameters are not intended to establish standards of dental care, which are rigid and inflexible, and represent what must be done; nor are they guidelines which are less rigid, but represent what should be done; nor are they intended to undermine or restrict the dentist's exercise of professional judgment. In this context, considerable thought was given to the use of the verbs "may," "should" and "must." The verb "may" clearly allows the practitioner to decide whether to act.
The verb "should" indicates a degree of preference and differs in meaning from "must" or "shall" (which require the practitioner to act).
Throughout the parameter document, "dentist" refers to the patient's attending dentist. Additionally, elements of the parameters concerned with patient consent refer to the patient's parent, guardian or other responsible party, when the patient is a minor or is incompetent.
The Association intends to continually develop, revise and maintain parameters, in order to include all dental conditions and to accommodate advances in dental technology and science.
Adopted 1994, Revised 1997
The key element in the design of this set of parameters for patients without clinical signs or symptoms of oral disease is the professional judgment of the attending dentist, for a specific patient, at a specific time.
This parameter recognizes that the patient without clinical signs and symptoms may require counseling and preventive measures to assist in maintaining oral health.
The patient's chief complaint, concerns and expectations should be considered by the dentist.
The patient's aesthetic concerns and needs may be considered by the dentist.
The dental and medical histories should be considered by the dentist in identifying medications and predisposing conditions that may affect the prognosis, progression, and management of patients without clinical signs or symptoms of oral disease.
Following oral evaluation of the patient (see limited, comprehensive, periodic, detailed and extensive evaluation parameters) and consideration of the patient's needs, the dentist should provide the patient with information about the status of his or her oral health prior to obtaining consent for treatment.
Medications should be prescribed, modified and/or administered for dental patients whose known conditions would affect or be affected by dental treatment provided without the medication or its modification. The dentist should consult with the prescribing health care professional(s) before modifying medications being taken by the patient for known conditions. (See: ADA Statement on Antibiotic Prophylaxis, Prevention of Bacterial Endocarditis: A Statement for the Dental Profession (PDF), and A-Z Topic: Antibiotic Prophylaxis.)
The dentist may counsel the patient concerning the potential effects of the patient's health condition, medication use and behaviors on his or her oral health.
The dentist should recommend treatment; present treatment options, if any; and discuss the probable benefits, limitations and risks associated with treatment, and the probable consequences of no treatment.
Any treatment performed should be with the concurrence of the patient and the dentist. If the patient insists upon treatment not considered by the dentist to be beneficial for the patient, the dentist may decline to provide treatment. If the patient insists upon treatment considered by the dentist to be harmful to the patient, the dentist should decline to provide treatment.
When the dentist considers it necessary, (an)other health care professional(s) should be consulted to acquire additional information.
The behavioral, psychological, anatomical, developmental and physiological limitations of the patient should be considered by the dentist in developing the treatment plan.
The dentist should attempt to manage the patient's pain, anxiety and behavior to facilitate safety, efficiency and patient cooperation. (See: ADA Policy Statement: The Use of Sedation and General Anesthesia by Dentists and Guidelines for the Use of Sedation and General Anesthesia by Dentists.)
The dentist should emphasize the prevention and early detection of oral diseases through patient education in preventive oral health practices, which may include oral hygiene instructions.
The dentist should refer the patient to (an)other health professional(s) when the dentist determines that it is in the best interests of the patient.
Relevant and appropriate information about the patient and any necessary coordinated treatment should be communicated and coordinated between the referring dentist and the health professional(s) accepting the referral.
The dentist is responsible for providing the patient with appropriate information about the maintenance of oral health, and the common risks and limitations associated with preventive measures. The patient should also be informed about the benefits of these measures and the potential consequences of no preventive treatment.
Nutrition counseling may be provided to assist in maintaining oral health.
Counseling may be provided regarding tobacco use or other behaviors that may compromise oral health.
Counseling may be provided regarding those general health conditions that may compromise oral health.
Dental sealants may be applied as a preventive measure. (See: Bisphenol A and Dental Materials.)
Counseling may be provided concerning the relationship of the fluoride levels in drinking water to dental caries and fluorosis. (See: ADA Statement on Water Fluoridation Efficacy and Safety and Fluoridation Facts)
Dietary fluoride supplements may be prescribed by the dentist. (See: Facts About Fluoride/Dietary Fluoride Supplements)
Topical fluoride may be applied or prescribed as a preventive measure. (See: Facts About Fluoride/Topical Fluorides)
Nicotine cessation medications may be prescribed by the dentist. (See: Summary of Policy and Recommendations Regarding Tobacco)
Prophylaxis may be performed as determined by the dentist.
Oral protective appliances may be fabricated to reduce the risk of injuries.
The dentist should determine the frequency and type of preventive measures based on the patient's risk factors.
Documentation of treatment provided, counseling and recommended preventive measures, as well as consultations with and referrals to other health care professionals should be included in the patient's dental record.

President/CEO Patrick J. Park, who's operated the firm for 36 years at 4538 Cass St., said there's no secret to his success.
"We've been fortunate to have had some very good agents and associates through time who sincerely have their clients' best interests in mind — and that's what it's all about," said Park. He said a property purchase is "the largest asset in people's lives in most cases."
Prudential Dunn Realtors specializes in residential, investment and commercial properties, including lots and land. With about 50 agents countywide, the firm's listing base varies from waterfront properties to vacant land, including some of San Diego's larger estates. The firm is a member of Prudential Relocation Services (PRS), one of the largest international relocation networks, and can also draw on the expertise of in-house Prudential Financial, a division of Wells Fargo Advisors & Liberty Mutual Insurance representatives.
Park said his real-estate firm has changed with the times, which he said have changed dramatically.
"The industry as a whole is a lot more time-sensitive than it used to be," he said, pointing out that's partly because, "people in the millennium generation and other generations want answers very quickly. You need to get it (information) to them on mobile apps or whatever."
Like many other industries, the Internet has revolutionized how real-estate companies do business.
"Being online has become so critical because you really don't know where your buyer is coming from," said Park. The market, he said, has become increasingly more international, drawing prospective buyers from around the globe for San Diego properties.
Citing one recent example, Park said a fixer-upper in La Jolla that sold for well above the property's estimated value range drew offers from China, Canada and Mexico before being sold to a Texas real-estate broker.
Value-range pricing was hailed by Park as a key to the continuing success of county real-estate sales.
"Prudential brought value-range pricing to this country from Australia in a market that was not doing well," Park said. He added that listing property in a range — rather than as a flat rate — allows "wider exposure with respect to those listings."
Park offered an example as illustration.
"If you have a condo listed at a fixed price of $501,000, anybody looking up to $500,000 is not going to see your condo," he said. "But if it's value-ranged at $475,000 to $525,000, you're going to pick up somebody looking in that range. It's a very good feature of the San Diego city and county markets and throughout Southern California."
Real-estate prices are rebounding nicely from the downturn of a few years ago, Park said.
"What we've seen in the past year or two are that prices are recovering," he said. "As an example, our average sale price last year was in the mid-$400,000s," he said. "This year, the average has been more than $550,000, though not for the same properties."
Park speculated San Diego's notoriously nice weather — and bad weather elsewhere — may have something to do with escalating San Diego real-estate values.
"It shows that San Diego is still America's finest city in every way, shape or form," Park said.
"We're going to keep doing it till we do it right," he said.

Frequently-used arguments against training cops in Tactical EMS
We've heard many reasons, excuses, and just plain "no" to the idea of including tactical medicine as part of our routine and regular training. I say — and many who have paved this path before me have said — that there are "no excuses!" when it comes to giving officers this life-saving skillset. Having said that, let's review some of those frequently-offered and excuses, and take them on one by one. If anyone has any additional reasons or operational concerns for not doing it, I urge you to join us at the 2011 ILEETA (International Law Enforcement Educators and Trainer Association) conference one month from now. There, we will have a round-table discussion to benefit the skills and winning abilities of all law enforcement. Or add your comments here and we'll discuss them in your behalf.
Budget — Probably the first thing brought up. No money for equipment and none for training. The point is well understood. It often falls on us as individuals to spend out of pocket, and at least get the minimum equipment. Grants are always available, but are competitive. Training can be free. Yes, aside from funding reasons, you can find free training to get the basic skills. If you don't believe me, let's talk. Conferences, private venues, experienced combat Vets. It's out there. Once you have the basic skills, it costs nearly nothing to incorporate them into Defensive Tactics, Firearms, Vehicle Contacts, or any other discipline already in place. The bottom line cost for very basic complement of supplies is probably $50-$60.
Space — "I have no room on my belt, in my bag, in my trunk..." Sure you do. How about going through that 'ol squad bag or briefcase? I bet you can get rid off some old gloves, dated manuals, papers, and treats. Save yourself two to three pounds, and set up a lighter go-kit that you can grab in a pinch. Trunks are for rescue teams and sprained wrists, not applications needed "NOW." If you're going in, you need it within reach. Those who come to help may have time to go in the trunk. Would an inch and a half of space be available on your belt? If not, how about ankle, concealable vest... The options are out there.
Not my Job — "Rescue will be here in five minutes... The Fire Department is two blocks down." Well, even if they are right outside the door, that's where they will usually stay. Just take a look at any active shooter, hot zone, or similar incident. Unless trained and practiced together, these resources are not useful at the point of wounding: In the back yard where Madland got shot, the apartment complex where
Fiegleson and McCaskill needed them, and not where Sauto was hit. Please understand, this is in no way a pun against our brothers and sisters in the EMS. But this, is simply not their job.
Liability — Liability of which part exactly? These are basic-level skills, comparable with most states levels of First Responder. Again, it has to be stressed that the training must be appropriate. Please refer to your local guidelines and work with your medical resources. As simple as it is, an improperly applied tourniquet or bandage will do no good, and will likely result in an adverse effect. It seems to me that knowing more skills, especially those that can also save the lives of civilians and by-standers will reduce the liability. Keep in mind, however, that these are environment-specific applications.
More Liability — Here it is again, and it's usually a big concern. If you're an administrator, Law Enforcement program lead, or a team leader and decided to implement any of the skills or programs discussed here, my hat is off to you. Heck, on behalf of many others, our hats are off and a hearty hand shake. You're in a tough position. But, if you know that your subordinates, team mates, and students can benefit from training, and do nothing about it... Where is the liability?
Lack of Resources — I am willing to bet that there are already standards, legislation, and policies, including those which are easily adoptable to what you may need, or can model after.
Despite our best judgment, evidence, and common sense, sometimes it's just easier to do nothing. To look away and say "not here" or "not me." Why must we be proven wrong at this cost, and then scramble to react and address the gaps. Let's do something now, plan, train and win.

Homemade Lip Balm
Kristin St. Clair shows how you can make your own lip balm at home.
Make your own all-natural red lip balm with this easy recipe from in-house crafter Kristin St. Clair.
Note: To make colorless lip balm, substitute carmine coloring oil with an additional teaspoon of carrier oil.
Tools and Materials
Homemade Lip Balm How-To
1. Melt beeswax, carrier oil, vitamin E oil, and coloring oil together in a double boiler, stirring to combine. Add essential oil right before removing from boiler to pour.
2. Pour mixture into lip balm containers. Let cool for about an hour. If using a pouring tray, scrape away excess and smooth tops with plastic scraper.
3. To make labels, cut a scrap of decorative paper to the size of container. Place paper facedown on a piece of clear 2-inch-wide packing tape. Cut packing tape to width of paper strip, and trim so tape is about 1/2 inch longer than paper on both ends. Wrap tape with paper around tube or pot.
Lip balm ingredients available from tkbtrading.com. Lip balm tubes, pots, tins, and pouring trays available from sks-bottle.com. Essential oils and vitamin E oil available from Whole Body or other drug stores.

Although this story dates back to 2008 and is (I would hope) an extreme case, it indicates the problems inherent in the screening process.
The incident occurred during the spring of 2008 at Corpus Christi airport, and has (shockingly!) prompted legal action on the part of the victim. And yes, she was a victim: "As the TSA agent was frisking plaintiff, the agent pulled the plaintiff's blouse completely down, exposing plaintiffs' breasts to everyone in the area," say lawsuit documents. "As would be expected, plaintiff was extremely embarrassed and humiliated."
The woman, highly upset, proceeded to leave the screening area to collect herself. You know, after forcibly going topless in the middle of airport security. And when she came back? A display of class about on par with a fraternity basement at 2 am: "One male TSA employee expressed to the plaintiff that he wished he would have been there when she came through the first time and that 'he would just have to watch the video.'"
I haven't heard of anything like this happening in Canadian airports and would be surprised if anything that over the top would ever occur. But it doesn't do anything to reassure the traveling public.
Thanks to Instapundit for the pointer.

Ultra-light-weight braking package
If you look behind the rotor you can see the T-nuts Wilwood uses to float the rotor to the mounting ring. Floating the thin rotors helps keep them from warping and also cuts brake drag.
In the Sep. '13 issue of Circle Track we walked you through the installation of an ultra-lightweight braking setup from Wilwood. The key to the lightweight setup is swapping out 1.250-inch-thick cast-iron rotors for solid steel rotors that are just 0.380-inch thick. To go with these, we also installed narrower and incredibly strong Forged Narrow Dynalite calipers and Wilwoods redesigned Starlight 55-XD hubs, which cut nearly 5 pounds off of each corner of a Limited Late Model dirt race car.
Following up with Wilwood's ultra-lightweight braking package to see how it holds up to punishment on the racetrack
Now it's easy to make practically any racing component lighter by reducing mass. The hard part is to make a lighter component that's still tough enough to handle the abuse that comes from circle track racing. Because it's so far outside the norm for stock car racing brakes, we were curious to see how well the Wilwood setup held up. So we followed up with racer Chris Hargett after a couple weekends of racing to get his opinion of how well the brakes worked.
"The brakes, so far, have been a non-issue," he says, "and I really mean that as a compliment. The stopping power is still there, which is great, and the car does want to get up off the corner better, which comes from cutting that weight. We've run Second in our first two races in the Limited Late Model class after moving up from Crates, so we are really happy with how it is all working.
"I know that Wilwood says the lighter pieces do not bleed off heat as well as the traditional cast rotors, so we're bleeding the brakes after each race to get all the old fluid out of the calipers, and not just burping them to get any air out. I also like that the new Forged Narrow Dynalite calipers will work on either the left or right side of the car. We're running the same pad on all four corners. The only difference is the caliper on the right front has a smaller set of pistons in it. That lets me carry fewer spares around in the race truck.
"Wilwood gives you the option to either float the rotors or mount them solid to the hub. We chose to float them. When we first assembled the rotors to the hubs they were pretty tight, but now that we've raced them a few times we can tell that the rotors move a little easier back and forth on the hubs. I really believe that floating the rotors helps cut brake drag. You can feel the difference just pushing the car through the pits, so I know it is making a difference on the track.
"I'm really happy with how this brake setup is working out. I know I definitely don't plan on going back. With my driving style I always use the brakes as little as possible and drive into the corner rather than using the brakes to turn the car, but I know of racers running these Wilwood brakes in the Super class and like them, so I wouldn't hesitate to run them just about anywhere."

…the portraits…
(Now, I don't know any of the people involved in this wedding but I would bet money that this was a photographer-client match made in heaven. There is a certain calm and ease that seems to be equally imparted from the subjects and the photographer… Do you and your photographer have complimentary personalities? It usually makes for better pictures! Your photographer will be approaching the day and seeing things, and you, more in line with the way you see…)
Photography: Kate MacPherson // Hair & Make-up: Hil Cook Team // Bride's dress: Collette Dinnigan // Olive Grove location: In The Grove

What a unique wedding!! It is, as you said, very comfortable – as a photographer, I love to see these images. It is so important that you feel comfortable around your photographer! Some of our wedding clients are now some of my dearest friends!
That dress is absolutely amazing!
She wears such a beautiful dress! It's so summery, not that big wedding dress, but so true and honest.
So pretty and I just love that dress. I am not excited about a big poofy white number for myself and I love her alternative–it is different but still says, "this is my special day."
Simply stunning…the couple, that DRESS…such beauty in simplicity.
Love the elegant simplicity of this wedding! And as a photographer I have to say you are right about how much better the photos are if there is a good rapport and comfort level between the couple and you. I dont think this necessesarily means you have to have a personaity match but rather you are good at putting people at ease and helping them be themselves around the camera…to me thats a good photographer.
Anyways….beautiful, rustically simple wedding!
absolutely love the photos walking through the wood clearing, the dress just looks phenomenal.
Hey love the dress! Which collection was it from?

Jessica Simpson Pictures Pregnant at Friend's Wedding
Pregnant Jessica Simpson Walks Down the Aisle — at a Friend's Wedding!
Pregnant Jessica Simpson Walks Down the Aisle — at a Friend's Wedding!
Jessica Simpson and her sister Ashlee Simpson were bridesmaids at a pal's wedding over the weekend. The Simpson clan headed to Palm Springs to see their pal Lauren Zelman tie the knot with Bret Harrison. Jessica Simpson went to the engagement party on Friday evening along with Cacee Cobb, her fiancé Donald Faison, mutual friend Adam Brody, and Ashlee's boyfriend Vincent Piazza.
The ceremony took place on Saturday at the town's Parker hotel. Both Jessica and Ashlee were bridesmaids, and Eric Johnson had the honor of walking his own bride-to-be down the aisle. Ashlee's son Bronx Wentz served as the ring bearer. There isn't long to go before Jessica and Eric give Bronx a female cousin. Jessica has said that after the birth of her daughter, she and Eric will then shift focus to their own big day. The weekend was evidently a great one, as Jessica tweeted last night, "Sometimes I feel like I'm so full of love I could explode!"

LAKE ARTHUR, La.—The Lake Arthur Board of Aldermen unanimously voted to raise the salaries of the next mayor and slate of aldermen.
A motion to do away with the $200 pay for one special meeting per month failed in a tie vote Wednesday night.
The American Press reports (http://bit.ly/1eOXZNb ) the increase will push the next mayor's salary from $600 to $1,200 a month, or $14,400 a year. Salaries for the board's five aldermen will increase from $200 to $400 a month, or $4,800 annually, with an additional $200 for one special meeting per month.
The raises will not go into effect until January 2015, after the Nov. 4 municipal elections. Qualifying for the elections is Aug. 20-22.

The topic is cracking of aluminum radiators that mount in the stock type configuration.
Certainly a good discussion topic. With a few radiators available that mount in the stock mounting configuration; is it a good idea to mount an aluminum radiator just like we mounted our old brass ones?
draker wrote:There have been a few people that had those champion radiator crack.. or fail. Even after getting a replacement, it would fail.
The koyo is a bit more. I got mine for about 250 shipped. It fit just fine with the stock alt, and an IR alt. No regrets. Wouldn't recommend the eBay radiator.
My new aluminum radiator is not a stock type replacement, but is a 2 core units that's nearly as big as I could get and build to fit the front of the car in the stock'ish location. However it sits in a cradle at the bottom on rubber blocks and is clipped in at the top utilizing a sheet metal plate. The rad can expand in all direction unimpeded.okayfine wrote:I wonder if the cracking issue is dependent on how you mount it. What are the failure modes?
Yes, you shouldn't have to monkey with the mounting, but with the Champion at least, you do. But, if you do, are there still failures? I mounted mine with rubber sway bar end link bushings, and only tightened three of the four mounting bolts to allow it to expand as necessary.
If it were mounted rigidly to the core support, I could see that being a problem, especially as you'd be flexing the mounting points on both sides since the bracket doesn't mount flush.
Now if you bolt the rad solidly to the rad support as the stock radiator is, can this be a problem over time with the expansion that the aluminum radiator sees, vs the expansion that our original brass radiators saw?

Pretty sure StK has a basement. And if he isn't interested in any DiY, why is he posting in a DiY thread?
Because he's maybe interested in home improvement? Same as Norrick. Check the thread title again.
If you'd read the instructions you would know that.
Then he could use his handy dandy new circular saw he got as part of his cordless combo kit
Again, read the instructions. Circular saws are no better at cutting curves than table saws. Same blade, just mounted to a different thing. Hell, you can mount a circular saw upside-down to a table and boom, table saw.
The tool you're looking for is a jig saw--the Ryobi one is quite nice (I own it, along with the circular saw/drill kit you posted).

Breaking up is hard to do, especially in New York. New York is the only state in the nation that does not allow for no-fault divorce, i.e., divorce without "grounds" such as adultery or abandonment. While proposals to change that are floating in Albany, a sharp disagreement between two influential women's groups prevented anything from happening this year.
Chief Judge Judith Kaye hoped to move toward no-fault divorce in New York by appointing a Matrimonial Commission that issued a report in February calling for an overhaul of the Domestic Relations Law and providing for no-fault divorce. Gotham Gazette's Law columnist, Justice Emily Jane Goodman, outlined the recommendations in March. The legislature adjourned without taking any action this year.
Inside Albany reported, "The chairs of the Legislature's Judiciary Committees, Senator John DeFrancisco (R-Onondaga County) and Assemblywoman Helene Weinstein (D-Brooklyn) each endorse â€no-fault' divorce. Weinstein says the current system encourages a spouse falsely to allege blame to expedite a divorce proceeding."
Dennis Poust, communications director of the New York State Catholic Conference, representing the state's Roman Catholic bishops in Albany, takes the position that "it shouldn't be easier to get out of a marriage than a car lease." He notes that no-fault is already available if the couple waits for one year.
Opposition from the Catholic hierarchy to no-fault is expected, but they have been joined in resistance to this change by the National Organization for Women, the state's leading feminist group. Noreen Connell, a past president of the state chapter, said, "I see it not as no-fault but as divorce on demand--unilateral divorce." She believes that the push for no-fault is coming from wealthy husbands who want to dump wives who are less able to afford the costs of lawyers.
"Judges--both women and men--are career people who have no respect for housewives," said Connell, who calls herself a "feminist with two cats." "There has to be some protection for people who made the sacrifice and stayed home with the kids." She also worries about legislators, "most of whom are lawyers and many of whom are divorced" not being sympathetic enough to non-moneyed spouses.
The move to no-fault is supported by the Women's Bar Association, which had been historically opposed to the change, but is now backing it up with its 3500 members. Elaine Avery, the president of the group, wrote that under no-fault, a woman who was a victim of domestic violence "would no longer be forced to waste time, money and emotional energy on proving who did what in the breakup of the marriage. Instead, they would be free to focus on what really matters--the custody of their children, child support, and the fair and equitable division of the parties' financial affairs."
While the New York State chapter of the National Organization for Women opposes no-fault, Avery said that the Pennsylvania chapter is in support.
Alton L. Abramowitz, a matrimonial lawyer who chairs the Committee on Matrimonial Law at the Association of the Bar of the City of New York which supports the change to no-fault, said that because of the state's budgetary process, "a lot of major issues get lost in Albany." He said that as a safeguard in this process, they support "provisions requiring all issues involving equitable distribution and child custody be resolved before the judgment of divorce." He is working with Assemblymember Weinstein on another provision that "the non-moneyed spouse be entitled to legal costs paid by the spouse with money."
Part of the bar association's desire for change stems from the fact that "we are expending an extraordinary amount of judicial resources on contested divorce." The association's case for changing the law is online.
The political delicacy of this issue was demonstrated by the fact that most major candidates for office in New York State are avoiding comment. Requests for comment were not returned by the campaigns of Democratic gubernatorial nominee Eliot Spitzer nor those running for attorney general--Democrat Andrew Cuomo who went through a messy divorce himself several years ago and Republican Jeanine Pirro whose marital woes of late seem to have set back her bid.
Susan Del Percio, a spokesperson for Republican gubernatorial candidate John Faso, said, "The state should find a way to implement some type of no-fault system, especially when both spouses want a divorce providing that the system has proper protections for financial and custody issues."
Assemblymember Dick Gottfried, a senior Democratic leader, acknowledged, "I haven't looked at it closely," but promised that he would not support "something that disadvantages women economically in divorce," since women are more often the non-moneyed spouse.
Connell is worried that while the legislature did not act on the Kaye commission's proposals for change this year when all legislators are up for re-election, "a lot of dirty work gets done in non-election years." Back in February, the New York Sun reported that Assemblymember Weinstein would not move forward unless "provisions were put in place to protect victims of domestic violence and the economic interest of non-working spouses." But she did not return calls about the prospects for change in 2007.
Senator DeFrancisco reportedly said he is supporting a proposal that would allow a divorce to go through in 30 days if a couple has resolved all of its economic and custody issues.
Lillian Kozack, the chair of the Domestic Relations Task Force at the National Organization for Women said, "Helene feels her bill will offer no-fault with protection. We don't buy that." Kozack is calling on the legislature to pass the protections first and see how they work before enacting no-fault divorce.
With feminists divided on the issue, this could be one of the more divisive social issue debates in the New York State legislature next year.

Man launches car into Lebanon pawn shop
An ex-convict is charged with ramming his car into a Lebanon pawn shop and fleeing.
Laclede County prosecutors filed five felony charges Saturday against 29-year-old James Roy Jacoby of Lebanon. It's not immediately known if he has an attorney.
Authorities allege that it all started Friday when Jacoby sought to retrieve a shotgun he had pawned. But the pawn shop staff wouldn't let him have it because a background check showed he had four felony convictions.
The probable cause statement says Jacoby became enraged, cursing and knocking over a display case. Jacoby is accused of twice ramming his vehicle into the store, injuring the shop owner's son and a patron. Police eventually tracked Jacoby down by following his footsteps in the snow.

Shooter was a staff member at the officer candidate training school on the base.
Authorities in Quantico, Va., have lifted a area-wide lockdown after a Marine who shot and killed two co-workers was found dead of a self-inflicted gunshot. The suspect, who was not yet identified, shot two people at around 11:00 p.m. on Thursday night at Marine Corps Base Quantico. After a standoff that lasted several hours, fellow soliders entered the barracks and found the shooter had committed suicide.
The Quantico base, which is about 30 miles south of Washington, D.C., is famously known as the primary training ground for both the Marine Corps and the FBI. It's referred to as the "Crossroads of the Marine Corps," since most officers and soliders who receive advanced training pass through there at some point during their careers.
The two victims were also Marines, but their connection to the shooter has not yet been revealed. The only other information given about the shooter is that he was a staff member at the officer candidate training school on the base.

Welcome to Gettinglost.ca! In this website, we hope to provide easily accessible scientific information on human navigation and orientation. Specifically, we hope to increase general awareness of Developmental Topographical Disorientation (DTD), a newly-discovered condition in which individuals get lost in very familiar environments, throughout their whole lives, without any brain damage or other cognitive disorders.
You can now follow our research updates on Twitter @giuiaria
Who we are
Gettinglost.ca is managed by NeuroLab, a cognitive neuroscience research laboratory at the University of Calgary directed by Dr. Giuseppe Iaria. We perform psychological studies in real and virtual environments, with the goal of understating how people make sense of their surroundings, and how the brain is responsible for this ability. Additionally, we want to gain a richer understanding of DTD, by observing behaviour, as well as the structure and function of the brain using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), and characterize the cause of this disorder. Following this, we want to help rehabilitate people that get lost easily, including people with DTD, the elderly, and individuals with acquired brain injuries or other neurological conditions. By using strategic interventions embedded in video games and real environments, we want to help people improve their ability to understand and navigate throughout their environment. Finally, we also investigate the spatial abilities of children at different stages of development, with the goal of understanding exactly how spatial abilities develop in children. This information would allow us to develop a diagnostic tool for children who may have a spatial learning disability.
If you have concerns about your spatial orientation abilities, you can contact Dr. Giuseppe Iaria at firstname.lastname@example.com

Eye and Ear's Department of Ophthalmology August 31, 2011 Contact: Public Affairs Ph: 617-573-3340 Boston (Aug. 31, 2011) – Research to Prevent Blindness (RPB) has awarded a grant of $100,000 to the Massachusetts Eye and Ear Infirmary to support research into the causes, treatment and prevention of blinding diseases. The research will be directed by Joan W. Miller, M.D., Chief of the Mass. Eye and Ear and Mass. General Hospital's Departments of Ophthalmology and Chair of the Department of Ophthalmology at Harvard Medical School. Research to Prevent Blindness is the world's leading volunteer organization supporting eye research. To date, the organization has awarded grants totaling $7,067,315 to Harvard Medical School. "The generous grants Mass. Eye and Ear and Harvard Medical School receive from Research to Prevent Blindness allow the researchers in the Department of Ophthalmology to continue to seek out improved disease management, treatment and future cures for our patients by continuing important research into the causes of vision loss," said Dr. Miller.

Hello! Ever had one of those times when you have a fantastic weekend filled to bursting with just the right combination of good food, great friends, naps, spots of reading, and word-game hilarity, after which you pat yourself on the back for a weekend well done? Then only to find yourself thrust into a hectic work-week which you should have known was coming yet catches you by surprise that before you know it it's the middle of the week and you have missed the deadline of your favourite blog event? Anyone?
If this sounds familiar to you, or even similar to your current situation, (and heaven knows no one is a stranger to busy-ness) this is the recipe for you. If you have sudden guests after a long day of going through 500 company analyses, this is the recipe for you. If you like tiramisu but only have 2 spare minutes to make some, then pull up a chair my friend, because this is the recipe for you.
And in case you are thinking that this is a sneaky shortcut cobbled together to make it to this round of HHDD, I'll have you know that this recipe comes from Miss Donna herself :)
Ice Cream Tiramisu
(from Instant Entertaining by Donna Hay)
- 2 tablespoons espresso coffee
- 1/4 cup coffee liqueur
- 8 small ladyfingers (savoiardi biscuits)
- 4 large (or 8 small) scoops of vanilla ice cream
- Chocolate flakes to serve
- Combine the espresso and the liqueur.
- Place 2 ladyfingers on a serving plate, spoon over some of the espresso mixture, and top with ice cream. Spoon over remaining espresso mixture.
- Top with chocolate flakes and serve. Serves 4.
You can really make this in just two minutes and it's easy to control the portion size and number of servings. The quantities above should just be used as a rough guide...let your own taste and tummy decide on the size of each serving. If you don't have any liqueur (as I didn't) just increase the amount of espresso and sweeten with a bit of sugar. This has the essence and flavour of a tiramisu with a fraction of the effort, which is not to say that you should replace a traditional tiramisu with this. I wouldn't even suggest it. But when you have to produce a dessert in a hurry, I'm sure your guests will be duly impressed when you come trotting out of the kitchen with these prettily plated desserts in tow :)
It's two days after the deadline of Hay Hay It's Donna Day but our gracious host Alexandra of Addicted Sweet Tooth has generously let me send my entry in. Thank you Alexandra for leaving the door open and for hosting this round of HHDD: Tiramisu! Hay Hay It's Donna Day is a food blog event celebrating Donna Hay's special yet simple dishes (I love Donna!) and was created by Barbara of Winos and Foodies, and is now under the expert care of Bron of bronmarshall.com.
