In Ohio, as in most states this year, the GOP has insisted on reforming women's reproductive rights legislation. In order to protect the health and safety of women (and their reproductive organs), Republican's claim that unborn fetuses must be protected. Legislation, such as H.B. 79 and H.B. 125, attempts to do just that. According to the GOP, women shall not have access to abortions, birth-control, condoms, or even gynecological check ups, in fear that they might make the wrong decisions for their own bodies. And the GOP must protect women's bodies and reproductive organs from the women who inhabit them.
For their own safety. Of course.
In response to all the hype over protecting women's bodies and reforming reproductive health benefits, Senator Nina Turner from Ohio may be one of the only Senators concerned about the health and safety of male bodies and reproductive organs. It is only ethical that if we protect female bodies against their inhibitors we must do the same for male bodies. For their own safety of course. Senator Turner argues that men need to understand the full implications of their reproductive choices before making important decisions. That is why she introduced S.B. 307 on March 6th.
By focusing on the neglected and vulnerable male reproductive organs, Turner's bill would take the extra step in ensuring men make the right decisions for their own bodies. The bill would require that erectile dysfunction patients attend three sessions of outpatient counseling and that "the physician shall ensure that the sessions include information on nonpharmaceutical treatments for erectile dysfunction, including sexual counseling and resources for patients to pursue celibacy as a viable lifestyle choice" (727-730).
Let's face it. If we adopt the theory that women's reproductive decisions need to be "protected" by the state, then it is only ethical to do the same for men. Many of which are ignorant of the horrible side effects caused by erectile dysfunction medication and the alternative options that are available to them.
You know the argument that if women have access to reproductive healthcare that they will in effect have more sex and more abortions. Well if men have access to reproductive healthcare (erectile dysfunction medication) then they will be having more sex and more abortions. The argument sounds a bit illogical now doesn't it?
Why is it that we take away a woman's reproductive health care because we don't want women to have too much sex; but at the same time we produce a multibillion dollar pharmaceutical industry to provide men with reproductive medications that help them have more sex?!!?!?!?! I think Senator Turner is right, we need to focus on these vulnerable men who are being taken advantage of by the pharmaceutical industry.

Series: Made in the Image of God: The Theological Implications of Human Genomics
This series by Denis Alexander reflects on advancements in genomics as well as their theological implications. He focuses on the relatedness of hominin genomes, arguing that this does not interfere with the image of God in humans. The image of God depends more on the capacity for relationship and covenant, not on a list of particular physical qualities. He then discusses why the recent studies of genomics provide "no grounds for genetic determinism."
On Reading "A Psalm for a New Human Species"
When reading Psalm 8 it is easy to make the mistake of thinking that the message at its center—concerning mankind's "being made a little lower than the heavenly beings" and our dominion over creation—is actually at its heart.

Series: The Human Fossil Record
In this series, James Kidder provides an intriguing study on transitional fossils and the evolutionary history of modern humans. He begins by discussing the fossil record, explaining how new forms are classified. He then explains the physically distinguishing trait of humankind—bipedalism. From the discovery of Ardipithecus, the earliest known hominin, to the australopithecines, the most prolific hominin, Kidder focuses on the discovery, the anatomy, and the interpretation of these ancestral remains.
Humanity as and in Creation
Christian theology asserts that humans are spiritual creatures, a unity of body and spirit or "soul," integrated, not reducible downwards to mere matter or upwards to mere spirit.
Being Human (Infographic)
The BioLogos Forum is pleased to present this infographic about the current anthropological understanding of human evolution, which takes into account research into both physiological and cultural developments among our ancient ancestors.
Hominids Lived Millions of Years Ago, but How Can We Tell? (Videocast)
This BioLogos videocast addresses the age of recently discovered hominid fossils and how scientists are able to obtain those dates.
The Broken Made Whole
There is a sense in which we look at Temma and we want to affirm that she is made in the image of God by denying that the image of God has anything to do with her physical, material body.
Series: Chosen by God: Biblical Election and the Imago Dei
At the center of the theological and cultural controversy surrounding biological evolution stands the question: "How do human beings—creatures uniquely created in the image and likeness of God—fit into the scientific picture of life's origins and development?" In this three-part series, Dr. Joshua Moritz endeavors to address this question by exploring what Scripture means—and does not mean—by the designation "image and likeness of God".
Series: He Who Has Ears
Scholar and musician Jeff Warren addresses the questions of how music is meaningful, and where that meaning resides, by looking at the popular ideas that musical meaning is entirely subjective to the listener and that the meaning of music can be universal. He also explores the recent trend of attempting to explain music via neuroscience. Finally, he looks into the reasons why music continues to play such a critical role in the worshiping life of the Church.
Dead Bones with a Living Message
In this video, Pääbo covers a lot of ground, noting several lines of genetic evidence for the evolution of modern humans from earlier hominids in Africa, as well as for the interbreeding between early humans and Neanderthals.
Series: Understanding Evolution
This blog series by Dennis Venema undertakes the task of clarifying numerous aspects of evolution that often become misconstrued by Christians. He first discusses the idea of speciation in a population over time, later applying it to the speciation process that occurred among hominids (human ancestors) which led to modern humans. He continues to support this idea by exploring so called "Mitochondrial Eve,""Y Chromosome Adam" and other compositional clues of the human genome.
Was Humanity Inevitable?
If the tape was rewound and evolution started over from scratch, Conway Morris says, the evolutionary details would be different, but the end result would be similar: a species characterized by intelligence and complex civilization.
NPR'S Adam and Eve Story
All science can say is that there was never a time when only two people existed on the earth: it is silent on whether or not God began a special relationship with a historical couple at some point in the past. This subtle but extremely important point was missed entirely in the NPR story.
Series: Genetics, Theology, and Adam as a Historical Person
Denis Alexander begins this five part series by discussing both what a model is and whether it is appropriate to use one when building a bridge between scientific truths and theological truths. Providing evolutionary facts about the origins of humans as well as discussing the origin and meaning of Adam in Genesis, he constructs what he calls a Retelling model and a Homo divinus model. Both approaches, he concludes, "suggest that human evolution per se is irrelevant to the theological understanding of humankind made in the image of God."
Beware Evolutionary 'Just-so' Stories About Religious Belief
As an evolutionary biologist I am fascinated by the emergence of cognitive abilities that make us so distinctive from other living species. There are, however, risks in making up evolutionary "just-so" stories to explain the origins of complex human beliefs.
Series: What Does "Image of God" Mean?
In this series, Pete Enns discusses what it means to be made in God's image according to Genesis 1:26-27. These verses show that humans are made in God's image in order to rule over all creation as representatives of God. He argues that humanity's image is not wrapped up in their soul, but in their role as caretakers. In this discussion, he mentions that God commands Israel to make no graven images to represent God because humans are living images themselves. Ultimately, Jesus is the perfect image of God, and humans are called to live in Christ.
On What It Means To Be An Image Bearer
In this video conversation, N.T. Wright suggests that what the book of Genesis and the apostle Paul mean by humans "bearing the image of God" is less a static picture and more of a creative, dynamic proposition-- specifically, how we "reflect" God into the world.
Does Genetics Point to a Single Primal Couple?
Is the human race descended from one ancestral pair in the recent past? Are we, as C.S. Lewis puts it in his Chronicles of Narnia, the "sons of Adam and daughters of Eve"?
Evolution and the Imago Dei
Genesis 1:26-27 reads: "Then God said, `Let us make man in our image, in our likeness, and let them rule over the fish of the sea and the birds of the air, over the livestock, over all the earth, and over all the creatures that move along the ground.' So God created man in his own image, in the image of God he created him; male and female he created them."
How could humans have evolved and still be created in the "Image of God"?
The meaning of the "image of God" has been debated for centuries in the church. A common view is that the image of God refers to the human abilities that separate us from the animals. However, scientists have found that abilities like communication and rationality are also present in animals on a basic level. Plus, theologians do not see the image of God as human abilities. Some theologians see the image of God as our capacity for a relationship with God. Other theologians see it as our commission to represent God's kingdom on earth. Both of these theological positions are consistent with scientific evidence. Whether God created humanity through a miracle or through evolution, God gave us our spiritual capacities and calls us to bear his image.

5 Responses to Shakespeare Inspired Operas
Do please update your list of operas inspired by The Tempest to include Thomas Ades's Inspired The Tempest, 2004, to be simulcast from the Met Live in HD series on November 10, 2012.
You need to add the Dublin born composer Michael W. Balfe's opera Falstaff (1838) to your list.
It had its premiere at the Italian Opera in London in July 1838 with great success. Four of the most famous singers in Europe at the time sang in it. We also produced a revival of Balfe's Falstaff in concert format with an international cast in Dublin in September 2008 for the composer's bicentennial. The opera was also recorded and is available through Amazon.com worrld wide. Thanks.
Basil Walsh/Author/Florida
Michael W. Balfe: A Unique Victorian Composer (2008)
There is also an opera called "Lear" , composed by Aribert Reimann and premiered on 1978
Bellini's I Capuleti e i Montecchi was based on the same Renaissance sources from which Shakespeare based Romeo and Juliet but not from Shakespeare directly. It's often included in such lists, but really, it shouldn't count as one of the Shakespeare 'inspired' works.

It's always an annual treat when Cincinnati World Cinema brings in the current Lunafest collection. This long-running series of short films by and about women is an excellent way for budding filmmakers to get noticed, and also do some good in the process. As always, a portion of the proceeds from these showings will go to the national Breast Cancer Fund, and locally, to the Eva G. Farris Education Center in Covington.
In any collection of short films, reactions will be different for different people. You may find some inspiring, some funny, some ho-hum. But that's the luck of the draw, and just like with the British commercial programs, there's always something new just around the corner. The shortest film is three-and-a-half minutes; the longest eighteen.
If you thought you never liked chamber music, put those thoughts aside for a couple of hours and see the new film A Late Quartet. After 25 years of worldwide fame, this quartet is coming to a crossroads. The cellist, whose wife died not too long ago, is diagnosed with Parkinson's, which spells the end of his career. The husband-wife duo of second violin and viola are having relationship difficulties, and the first violinist refuses to relinquish any portion of his first-chair duties so that the second violist might have a chance to shine a bit.

No false comment passing this time.
This looks really delicious and I memorised the recipe and I will prepare it. I shifted to a new house and as you know the shifting process is a mess which prohibited me from blogging, surfing or cooking. I have to quickly start with the normal life again.
The recipe where the dals are grinded and then cooked is new to me. Hey one question... Do we need to add water after the dals are added to sauted onion and chopped beans? - January 6, 2010 at 9:01 PM

Thank you Abhi, Sushma, Prathiba, Priya, Shama, Bala, Vrinda, Nyona and Padma for your encouraging comments:)
Hi abhi, i know how messy it gets while shifting to a new home, hope u like the place and get more friends in neighborhood....
As i said sprinkle enough water on the sauted beans and onions, cover the pan and cook the beans for about 5 mins. Once the beans are cooked and dry, finally add the steamed dals to the cooked beans and give a final stir.
Once the steamed dal is added to the beans, do not add water. As the mixture of dals and beans will become soggy.
Hope i'm making clear..... - January 7, 2010 at 10:48 AM

Pakistan appear headed for a heavy defeat in the opening Test against Sri Lanka at Galle as they ended day three 474 runs adrift of the hosts with seven wickets remaining.
Sri Lanka bowled the tourists out for 100 in their first innings and then, after tacking on 137 for five declared to their first innings total of 472, they reduced Pakistan to 36 for three before the close. Pakistan began on 48 for five in their first innings and the wickets began tumbling again with only debutant Mohammad Ayub (25) offering any resistance.
Suraj Randiv claimed four wickets for 13 runs, while Rangana Herath finished with three for 30 including the controversial scalp of Younus Khan. Younus was adjudged lbw, although he inside-edged the ball, and his dismissal for 29 ended any genuine hopes Pakistan harboured of mounting a fightback.
Adnan Akmal (nine) was run out attempting a second run off Herath to leave the Pakistanis on 88 for seven and the tail never looked like wagging on a pitch offering plenty of turn.
Randiv's off-spin accounted for Abdur Rehman (one), the number nine trapped lbw playing forward, with Ayub snared in similar fashion by Herath soon after before Randiv had Umar Gul caught behind by Prasanna Jayawardene for two to wrap things up.
Sri Lanka opted not to enforce the follow-on at lunch, however, instead heading out for a quick batting cameo which lasted for one and a half sessions before they declared on 137 for five.
They got off to a good start in their second innings as Tillakaratne Dilshan and Tharanga Paranavitana put on 81 for the opening stand, but after the latter was trapped lbw by Saeed Ajmal for 25, things began to unravel.
Kumar Sangakkara managed just one before being caught by Taufeeq Umar, also off Ajmal, and then Dilshan went for 56, also lbw to Junaid Khan. That left Sri Lanka on 93 for three at tea, and two more wickets went shortly after with Mahela Jayawardene out for 14 and Thilan Samaraweera gone for 15.
That seemed to persuade Sri Lanka that it was time to have another bowl, and they quickly had joy once Pakistan were put back in. Opener Mohammad Hafeez was caught by Sri Lanka skipper Mahela Jayawardene off Nulan Kulasekara for just four.
Things then got worse as Azhar Ali was the victim of a fine catch from Samaraweera at gully off Herath for seven, and in the next over opener Taufeeq Umar became Kulasekara's second victim, bowled between bat and pad for 10.

I'd rep you but apparently I was a bit loose with my repping and cannot.
everyone understood it - they just didn't want to admit it.

Ah ha I noticed that. Can't believe they let that on air.
You are a legend now. I'll rep when I'm able.
"Most nights (The Jazz) couldnt stop a grandpa with a walker, particularly if he gave a head fake."
I had to rewind it cause i wasn't sure i really saw it. I paused it and showed wife and told her how it was someones sig on jazzfanz. She didn't believe me that it was supposed to mean what it means. Had no idea it actually was you though. Well done.
Wow, that was an amazing rep train to wake up to!
I'm the guy on the right with the dorky glasses. We were trying to get on the jumbotron the whole time, and were so upset that we never appeared on there.
At the end of the game, my buddy checked his facebook and got a comment saying "...I think I just saw you on tv."
So we drove back home to Saint George that night, and I came home and scanned the game that we recorded, and lo and behold-- there we were.
We had purposefully made it two signs, and had "In Yo Face" go in first, so it looked like two very innocent signs. Can't believe we made it on tv. Hahahahaha.

Christmas came a little early to some very special children in Sampson County, all thanks to the Civitans Club.
On Thursday, Dec. 13, the Civitans sponsored a Christmas party for 135 special needs children (kindergarden through fifth grade) from all of the county and city schools.
The fun began at 10 in the morning with a movie at East Park Cinema. The children were treated to popcorn and soda as they saw either "Life of Pi" or "Wreck It Ralph."
Ray Cannon, owner of East Park Cinema, has been opening the theater for the children since 1989. "When I was younger and we first started doing this, I thought it was a good thing to do but it didn't mean that much to me. But when I watched the children meet Santa and open their presents, that changed my whole attitude," attested Cannon. "They were so excited and happy."
"The Cannons have always been so generous with letting us use the movie theater," said Joseph Oates, president of the Civitans. "I want to acknowledge them because a lot of people probably don't know that they do stuff like this."
After the movie, the Civitans had a hot dog lunch prepared for the children and arranged for a very special guest. Once all the tummies were full, Santa came out to the delight of the youngsters.
Since it is his busiest time of the year, the Civitans helped Santa out with gifts for the children. They paid for the children's teachers to go to Walmart and purchase a $5 gift for every boy and girl . Once wrapped, the gifts were given to Santa to, in turn, present to the youngsters.
The children were very excited to sit on Santa's lap and have their picture taken. "See why we bring Santa out at the very end," said Civitan member Brenda Thompson, watching as the children squirmed in their seats wanting to hurry and meet Santa. "They're so excited that they probably wouldn't eat if he came out any earlier."
This Christmas party is an annual event that the Civitans have been doing for many years. "It's just good for these kids to have a special party," said Thompson. "Their situations are a little different than most and this is something special we can do for them."

TELL US: Does a More Politicized 'Buy Nothing Day' Change Your View of Efforts to Cool Consumer Fever?
This Friday's 'Buy Nothing Day,' same day as 'Black Friday,' has taken on a new political tinge. Does that change how you view the effort to keep the holidays from becoming one big shopping trip?
'Buy Nothing Day,' a 20-year old tradition of reminding people that there is more to Thanksgiving and Christmas than shopping, this year has taken on even more political coloring:
Buy Nothing Day/#Occupy Xmas.
Last year, 2011, was the first year Buy Nothing Day was connected to the Occupy movement; both are brought to you by Adbusters, a passionately anti-capitalist organization out of Canada.
The Adbusters homepage with information about Buy Nothing Day/#Occupy Xmas, is dominated by a Guy Fawkes mask, emblematic of the Occupy movement and by this quote:
"Today, humanity faces a stark choice: save the planet and ditch capitalism, or save capitalism and ditch the planet."
– Fawzi Ibrahim
So here's the question: does the closer connection of Buy Nothing Day with the Occupy movement make it more appealing to you by giving it some political heft? Or does it take a plea for holiday simplicity and purity into the very kind of political realm that holidays are supposed to take us beyond? Let us know in the comments section below.
Charlie Schnapps
9:51 am on Wednesday, November 21, 2012
Ick. I'd support a "no shopping day"' only as it relates to not spoiling my kids. The politicized "Buy Nothing Day" and its association with the ridiculous Occupy Movement makes me want to get out my credit cards immediately.
6:43 pm on Wednesday, November 21, 2012
I love the idea of a "no shopping day", I was just lamenting how people are forgetting about being with their families. But DO NOT associate this the Occupy Movement - I agree with the comment from Charlie. I love capitalism. And if we don't shop stores won't open - that is how capitalism works. We need to show what we want by our actions.

Art Galleries in Budapest
Art is one of the major markets throughout Europe. With the global economic crisis and the various ways of resistance to problems such as racism, anti-immigration laws, feminism, etc, the production of contemporary art today is overwhelming. This is not new, plus getting profit from the current economical situation is possible if you have an artistic and conceptual radical nature. Thus, institutions, collections, artists and museums are rewarded.
On one hand the artists create projects and works that go hand in hand with the policies of the galleries and museums. Similarly, the galleries and museums receive recognition and cultural capital, and then the institution sponsors these artists, in their radicalism. The institution on the other hand, ensures payment to the artists, who ultimately complete the financial wheel, also being recognized officially by the institution. The museum or gallery purchase souls without a doubt. But this is information for artists. If you�re seeking the best art in Budapest, don't hesitate to visit the following places:
Műcsarnok Kunsthalle, one of the most important institutions of modern and contemporary art in Budapest. Open since late nineteenth century, this area has been the focus of art in Hungary and a key player in the formation of the canon of Hungarian art.
Polgár, opened back in 1987, this gallery also began to make considerable auctions since 1995. Polgár is centered above all in classical art, furniture, utensils made of different materials, porcelain, paintings and jewelry. For knowledgeable and lovers of the relics.
Acb, this gallery has existed since the 90�s, and currently supports the work of new artists, especially from experimental trends and on various media such as video, photography and installation. The most recent young Hungarian art can be found here.
Kieselbach is another important impressionist art gallery, focusing on Hungarian art and other art oddities of Budapest. They also have pieces of abstract art, art deco, and art nouveau, among others. This gallery also works as auctioneer.
Art Mission, opened back in 1990, this gallery exhibits mainly contemporary art from renowned figures of art made in Hungary.
While these galleries are routed to the acquisition of important works of art, just as their spaces and exhibitions, which can give you a better perspective of the art made in Hungary and other countries. Budapest is a city full of attractions for scholars and art lovers as well as young artists. Probably, a city will be even better positioned in the market pendulum of the always modern and contemporary art in the coming years. Make sure to explore the libraries, squares, churches and monuments around the city center. More than a pleasant surprise awaits you in the Hungarian capital.
Get apartments in Budapest and visit its important museums and galleries. Budapest offers a diverse cultural and intellectual life, and if you�re an art lover, you will have the opportunity to appreciate it to its full extension.

BiOrb Flow
The Reef One biOrb FLOW is a really easy aquarium to set up and own. Everything you need to start your aquarium is included in the box. It uses the tried and tested biOrb filtration and also has a built-in LED light. Our newest creation. The biOrb FLOW is a new breed of tank.
This Aquarium is ideal for keeping small fish or shrimps and is compact enough to place on your desk or in a small space. Add some calm to your home or office with a biOrb FLOW.
Available in 15 litres. Black or white.
Complies with UL, ULC and CE safety requirements.
Questions and Answers From Reef One
Your question
Hi There, I am interested in purchasing a BiOrb flow in the near future, and was just wondering what sized plants look best in it. I know in the main picture that the small red one must be a small silk plant, but I am unsure about the plants in a different photo. It appears heavily planted to the rear of the tank, mainly green but with at least one purple plant. My other query, although not decor-related, is that is there is another hole aside from the feeding hole in the light, as there is in the other lights (such as the one in the Baby BiOrb)? I would need a heater, so I needed to know this before purchasing. I wondered if you could shed any light on these matters. Many Thanks, Esther Wilson
Our expert says
The biOrb Flow can accommodate the Small and Medium Easy Plants that we have in our range. Also, the small sized ornaments will also fit . In terms of what looks best, it really depends on what effect you are looking to achieve.
With regards to installing a heater, we have included a notch in the light unit that allows fitment of a heater so that the cable can exit through the top.
What fish live in the biOrb flow?
The biOrb Flow 15 litre aquarium is ideal for small bodied coldwater or tropical fish such as White Cloud Mountain Minnows. Because the aquarium is only 15 litres in capacity, it is not suitable for goldfish
Hi, i was wondering what tropical fish would be reccomended to keep in the Biorb Flow and at what amount? Many Thanks Luke
The 15 litre Flow aquarium is ideally suited for up to 6 small bodied fish such as White Cloud Mountain Minnows. There are many species of tropical fish that are suitable. Avoid any fish that will grow too large and also avoid bottom feeders such as Catfish, Loach etc.
Hi, I'm thinking about buying the new 15ltr biOrb flow for my two garra rufa fish. (They are both about 2-4cm long) Would I be able to use the biOrb heating kit to transform the 15ltr biOrb flow into a tropical aquarium? And would it be suitable for my garra rufa fish? Also how many fish would you say would fit in the 15ltr biOrb flow as I am thinking about getting one more fish and maybe a snail. Thanks.
The biOrb is not an ideal home for bottom feeding fish as the substrate is very rough and bottom feeders can damage their delicate mouths on the sharp edges of the ceramic media. Also, they will require a sinking type of food that we do not recommend feeding in the biOrb.
The 15 litre biOrb can accommodate up to 6 small bodied fish such as Mountain Minnows, or if you add a heater pack, you can keep up to 6 small bodied tropical fish.
The biOrb flow can be turned into a tropical aquarium using the Reef One heater pack

Rangers top Flyers 2-1 for 2nd straight win
New York Rangers goalie Henrik Lundqvist (30) of Sweden makes a save in the third period of their NHL hockey game against the Philadelphia Flyers at Madison Square Garden in New York, Tuesday, Jan. 29, 2013. The Rangers defeated the Flyers 2-1. (AP Photo/Kathy Willens) |
NEW YORK (AP) — The New York Rangers already had depth problems at forward before captain Ryan Callahan left the ice with his left arm dangling.
The injury didn't hurt the Rangers in the short term as New York held on for a 2-1 victory over the Philadelphia Flyers on Tuesday night, but it could become troublesome if Callahan is sidelined for any length of time in this already shortened NHL season.
Callahan scored the eventual game-winning goal during a second-period power play and then got hurt in the third during a post-whistle scrum with Philadelphia's Max Talbot, who dragged Callahan to the ice by his arm.

Jobs for young people public meeting in Carlisle
Last updated at 14:13, Friday, 17 August 2012
A public meeting has been called by campaigners who are battling to improve job opportunities for young people in the county.
The guest speaker at the event will be Paul Callanan, national organiser for the Youth Fight for Jobs campaign, which is battling youth unemployment and has backing from several trade unions.
The organiser of the Carlisle meeting is unemployed maths graduate Daniel Thorburn.
The 28-year-old said: "It's getting pretty hard for young people to get jobs.
"There's been a big rise in tuition fees, with a yearly cap of £9,000; the door to the public sector has been closed and we're in a double dip recession.
"We need a programme of public works to create jobs.
"They've spent a fortune on the Olympics, so they should put similar investment into training a new generation of construction workers who could dthen help to build affordable homes."
The meeting is to be held at Club 35 in Lowther Street on Monday, starting at 7pm.
Last year, Daniel, of Oaklands Drive, Upperby, joined dozens of protesters who recreated the historic Jarrow march against unemployment and poverty 76 years ago.

2013 Scion Cars
Scion was launched in 2004 as a Toyota's youth brand, and offered small, stylish cars like the xA and xB hatchbacks. Shortly after, Scion introduced the tC sport coupe, a vehicle that won a wide following among buyers looking for a sporty, stylish and affordable coupe. The xB was revised in 2007, with the xA replaced by the xD, and a redesigned tC was introduced in 2011. A new minicar, dubbed the iQ will go on sale at the end of 2011.
With Toyota failing to reach younger buyers, the company decided to launch their Scion brand in 2004. Their initial offerings were compact hatchbacks with a focus on vehicle customization, and Scion offered a massive range of dealer installed accessories. The tC sports coupe followed that pattern, and also offered performance enhancements through Toyota's TRD performance division, including an authorized supercharger kit that boosted engine output substantially. Scion has had trouble retaining their young audience, but their vehicles have still managed to find homes among those looking for practical and funky transportation. Scion's iQ will launch at the end of 2011 and compete with the Smart Fortwo.

Tour de Feminin Krásná Lípa
Words: Ian Cleverly | Photos: Gerard Brown
Rouleur's Ian Cleverly accompanied the For Viored-Brookvex team to the Tour de Feminin Krásná Lípa in this extract from issue 30, on sale now.
Following the opening day's presentations to the public, racing gets underway with a 110km stage starting and finishing in the town of Krásná Lípa itself. It is stupidly hot. We park up in the feed zone and hand up bottles on an incline, mostly successfully – although some are knocked flying, others missed as a couple of our riders pass in the middle of the bunch, frantically waving their arms. It is a tough lesson to learn.
Groups of tail-enders approach, begging for water. They will have to find their own crew, harsh as that may sound. The bottles are tucked behind my back until I spot one of our girls, Gabby. The bidon is held high, lightly clasped by the neck, then lowered into position ready for collection. It is all looking good, until a desperate opposing rider cuts across and attempts to swipe the bottle. It hits the ground. Gabby will be thirsty for another lap. I curse the interloper, but understand the motive. There are some seriously dehydrated riders out there.
We hightail to the finish in time to catch the leaders cross the line, a group predominantly made up of Australians and Russians with the experienced Cath Williamson tucked in among them. The race has split to pieces in the heat and hilly terrain of the very first stage, which could be down to the difference in quality between the likes of former time trial (and three-time cyclo-cross) World Champion Hanka Kupfernagel, and club riders with day jobs like most of ours. But there is no denying the attacking riding we saw – not something the casual spectator associates with women's racing.
"People don't get the see the races season-long," says team manager Rene Groot, "only the Worlds, maybe the nationals, and the difference between pro riders like Emma Pooley to the next level, like our girls, is so big that they just ride away in the first lap and you never see anything of the rest of the race. At the Worlds, there is so much at stake that nobody wants to stick their neck out. It will probably be the same at the Olympics. People base their opinions of women's racing on those big events. But you look at a race like Krásná Lípa: there are breaks going away, people attacking all the time. It is a shame that people don't see that."
A shame indeed, and an even bigger shame for the 11 women –including Cath once again – with a healthy lead with 20km to go the next day. We have set up on the far side of one of the numerous railway crossings to be negotiated, the last chance saloon for anyone wanting a bottle. The lead car comes into view as it crosses the tracks, then stops. Sure enough, the barrier has come down in front of the break, they are caught, then set on their way again together with the 120-strong peloton. It seems harsh but those are the rules. Australians fill the first three positions in the big bunch sprint and Cath is now sitting in a very handy sixth overall, but it could have been so much better.

It seems funny to me that in a state that abortions are legal and public money can be used to perform them that we would even be having a debate on a Death with Dignity bill. If women can make a choice on the life of a fetus than I should be able to decide my own fate if faced with a terminal illness. Could an opponent of this bill please explain the difference between the two to me?

Sail-World.com : Use this simple secret for anchor holding power!
Use this simple secret for anchor holding power!
The other day, a reader sent in a query as to why I recommend a 7: 1 scope on anchor rode as opposed to 3:1. After all, less rode means less hassle with having all that line messed up by gooey mud, slimy bottom crud, and other unknowns beneath the sea.
Use enough scope to match the conditions you anchor in. You scope calculation should include present depth, expected rise to high tide, distance of your depth sounder transducer below the waterline, and freeboard (height of the bow above the water). Add all of these factors up. Multiply by seven for an average scope. Why so much?
Here's a simple, eye-opening demonstration of the power of anchor scope, which is easy for you to do in your home waters:
Grab a small anchor (Five pounds or less--easy to handle). The anchor type isn't important--even a tiny grapnel will do. Attach 20 feet of small diameter line to the anchor shank (long arm of the anchor).
Locate a sandy or soft ground area. Dig the anchor flukes into the ground just a bit. No need to bury them all the way. Walk to the end of your 20 foot anchor line. Turn around and face the anchor. Pull hard on the rope rode. What do you notice?
Your anchor will dig into the simulated 'seabed' and hold well. That's because most of the pull on the anchor rode will be horizontal. And that's the secret to keep your anchor dug deep. You want to do everything possible to keep the rode as parallel as possible to the seabed.
That's another reason to use a length of chain at the seabed end of a rope anchor rode if you are using rope. The chain protects the line from chafe (wear) and it provides weight to keep the rode more parallel to the bottom.
Now, let's simulate what happens with just 3:1. In our experiment, we will assume what the 20 foot piece of rope at the end represents a scope of 7:1. So, about half of that length would represent a scope of close to 3: 1.
Walk slowly toward your anchor. Keep tension on the rope rode as you go. Watch the angle that the rode makes with the anchor and sea bed. Stop when you get to a point about ½ of the distance to the end of the rode.
Look at the shank of your anchor. Note that the rode now has an upward (vertical) pull on the end of the anchor shank. Any vertical pull on an anchor shank has the potential to break out an anchor and cause it to drag. The shorter the rode relative to the water depth, the less chance that your anchor will hold. Avoid short scope for long term or overnight anchoring. Longer scope gives your anchor greater holding power over a broader range of wind or sea condition.
Remember, you will not always anchor on a flat plane of water. Wave action, ground swell, and boat wakes cause your boat to lift and fall in position. As we saw in our experiment, any vertical pull on the anchor will decrease holding power and increase the possibility of break out and dragging. Use longer rode to lessen vertical pull when your boat bow lifts and falls in choppy anchorages.
But what about vessels with all-chain rode? Sure, those with heavy chain might use shorter scope of about 5:1 in light to moderate conditions. But 7:1 will always be better. And, in storm conditions or in unprotected areas with heavy ground swell, you need 10:1. Use the maximum scope possible or set more than one anchor in crowded anchorages with limited swing room.
You will sleep better at night when you choose to use enough scope to keep your boat anchor dug deep into the sea bottom--wherever in the world you choose to cruise!
