I do not totally agree with his statement. I'm 32 in a CR since Nov and had my first SCT in Oct. I'm going for my 2nd SCT in 4 weeks. But I feel someone who is young and went into this with very few side effects cant be classified within the "7-8 years left of survival". This makes me not even want to read this stuff on the internet anymore.

I'm a patient of the Dana Farmer's MM team. I'm treated by Dr.Rob Schlossman and N.P. Kim Noonan who work with Dr. Anderson. I was diagnosed in 2002. I've had some aggressive treatment but I've been able to ride the 200 mile Pan Mass Challenge 5 of the last 8 years and I'm in training for the 2011 event.
I'm 62, I've been dominating for 8+ years and thanks to the treatment of my Doctors and Nurses at the DFCI, I have at least another 8 years in me.

Hey, in 7 years my youngest one will be 8 and I will be 44. That's not an age where you want to leave. So I agree with Phil, that we have to fight harder for better outcomes. Not only talking, but doing something. As a sportsman, Phil, you know that we need a strategy and a scrum for performing well in the myeloma wars. But we now have a great coach in our exclusive club. Pat Williams has been diagnosed, one of the most impressive speakers in the U.S. Perhaps we could discuss strategy with him, when has recover form his first line treatment. I have in mind that influence in the pharma market starts with $10 million and more. Unfortunately. And change is needed at the FDA, sitting in Bethesda. We all know that this FDA-placebo-based studies are poison for the development of new agents. IMF and MMRF should do lobby work on this item. Do they?
So my question to you: how should we fight? What's our strategy, Phil? Peter

Stephen- it's always great to hear from people who have been dominating M for more than a couple of years. You are an encouragement to all!
Chris- Fortunately Dr. Andersen was talking about the median survival. I am confident that the treatments people are undergoing today will provide longer term CRs and even cures.
Carol- I hear you! I am 30, but feel like 50 at times.
Peter- we need your enthusiasm in this race to outlive the disease. I love your attitude and ideas.
Linda- I had the same question.

A special small quilt recently made with old wool fabric (some recovered from old Amish clothing). In the 19th and early 20th Centuries the Amish routinely made their quilts with woolen fabrics. The lack of availability of new woolen fabric has led to cottons being almost exclusively used in quilts made now. Here is your chance to own a bit of history! Well made here in Lancaster by an Amish woman. Note that this quilt has very thin batting as is seen in antique Amish quilts.
A high quality quilt.
Questions? Call Connie Lapp at (484) 880-3823 or email email@example.com
Sold -- no longer available
While the quilt shown here has been sold, we can arrange for this quilt to be custom made for you. The current price may be more because of increases in the cost of fabric.

Did Noah fall further than expected? I thought he was being talked about as a top 5?
Atlanta's draft is interesting too. I was expecting them to make moves prior to the draft but maybe the plan is afterwards. Horford isn't that big a surprise pick really (at all?) but I hadn't heard of them having any interest in Law.
I have to say, although they are all aging, a trio of Allen/Pierce/Garnett would definitely make the Celtics a Finals contender in the East - or at least it should.
With Al Jefferson going to Boston, this is their attempt to win it all right now.
Quote from: Dressel Rebel on July 30, 2007, 12:46 PMWith Al Jefferson going to Boston, this is their attempt to win it all right now. Al Jefferson is already in Boston.
It just seems like they started the rebuilding, now mortgaged the future for a one time shot. They should have made this deal 1-2 years ago.
Then again, outside of Jefferson, I don't know that many of those players are going to amount to too much. I think Ainge was really under pressure to have a decent team again, and to put Boston back "on the map" in the NBA landscape - something that really hasn't happened since the Bird days.

Last week Qatari 11th-grader, Hussam Sayed and his friends couldn't tell you what a dugong is — even though hundreds of these charismatic manatee-like creatures live in the nearby Persian Gulf.
But by the end of the morning on Saturday, April 21, Hussam and a dozen other Qatari high school students could identify much more than the dugong after collecting flora and fauna data in the Al Thakhira mangrove forest on Qatar's eastern coastline.
As part of last weekend's Earth Day activities in Doha, Conservation International (CI) helped Qatar Foundation International (QFI) and the students make the trek to test out a new online tool called Mapping the Mangroves, which was designed by QFI to track the biodiversity of coastal ecosystems and raise public awareness about this vital habitat.
After the expedition, Hussam was able to explain that "Protecting the mangroves is very important because soil and roots absorb carbon, so we can reduce global warming."
The students, who are all participants of QFI's cultural exchange programs, loved the new tool. Developed by QFI education technology advisor Chris Dubia from Ushahidi's open-source crowdsourcing platform, the tool allows users with mobile devices to upload GPS-tagged data such as pictures, videos, geographic coordinates and text.
"I learned about a new app which shows the world what we learned," said Ahmad Hiasat, one of the high school students at the event. "The experience was priceless!"
Dr. Leah Karrer, who heads CI's Marine Science Program, particularly liked chatting with the students.
"These kids were so curious about the work we are doing to understand coastal ecosystems," she said. "They were really excited to learn about some of the vibrant ecosystems in their own country, like the rich seagrass beds and the mangroves we visited."
During the mangrove trip, Leah participated in a QFI-led TweetChat by tweeting photos and facts on these carbon sequestering ecosystems.
Following the mangrove mapping expedition, CI also participated in Earth Day events at Qatar's education complex Education City, including an Earth Day Fair attended by students and faculty from across the university campus.
Qatar Foundation's Sustainability Education Office and QFI hosted the fair as part of a series of student activities the foundation is planning as the country prepares to host the 18th Conference of the Parties to the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC COP18) in Doha in December.
At the fair, QFI, Qatar Shell and CI announced a collaboration to train student ambassadors from Qatar, the United States and Brazil to participate in the Rio+20 Earth Summit on June 20-22, in Rio de Janeiro, and the COP18 Conference in December.
"We are excited to help train these future environmental leaders and to send youth representatives to these two seminal events," said Maggie Salem, executive director of QFI.
Keith Lawrence, who runs CI's Seascapes Program, was impressed with the resources Qatar is putting into developing scientific and technological capacity.
"It is great to see the commitment Qatar has to scientific leadership and building world-class facilities," he said. "They appear to be taking their COP18 hosting role very seriously too. The country seems very motivated to achieve real policy successes in December."

Web typography
Web typography refers to the use of fonts on the World Wide Web. When HTML was first created, font faces and styles were controlled exclusively by the settings of each Web browser. There was no mechanism for individual Web pages to control font display until Netscape introduced the
<font> tag in 1995, which was then standardized in the HTML 2 specification. However, the font specified by the tag had to be installed on the user's computer or a fallback font, such as a browser's default sans-serif or monospace font, would be used. The first Cascading Style Sheets specification was published in 1996 and provided the same capabilities.
The CSS2 specification was released in 1998 and attempted to improve the font selection process by adding font matching, synthesis and download. These techniques did not gain much use, and were removed in the CSS2.1 specification. However, Internet Explorer added support for the font downloading feature in version 4.0, released in 1997.[1] Font downloading was later included in the CSS3 fonts module, and has since been implemented in Safari 3.1, Opera 10 and Mozilla Firefox 3.5. This has subsequently increased interest in Web typography, as well as the usage of font downloading.

In the first CSS specification,[2] authors specified font characteristics via a series of properties:
All fonts were identified solely by name. Beyond the properties mentioned above, designers had no way to style fonts, and no mechanism existed to select fonts not present on the client system.
Web-safe fonts
Web-safe fonts are fonts likely to be present on a wide range of computer systems, and used by Web content authors to increase the likelihood that content displays in their chosen font. If a visitor to a Web site does not have the specified font, their browser tries to select a similar alternative, based on the author-specified fallback fonts and generic families or it uses font substitution defined in the visitor's operating system.
Microsoft's Core fonts for the Web
To ensure that all Web users had a basic set of fonts, Microsoft started the Core fonts for the Web initiative in 1996 (terminated in 2002). Released fonts include Arial, Courier New, Times New Roman, Comic Sans, Impact, Georgia, Trebuchet, Webdings and Verdana—under an EULA that made them freely distributable but also limited some usage rights. Their high penetration rate has made them a staple for Web designers. However, most linux distributions don't include these fonts by default.
CSS2 attempted to increase the tools available to Web developers by adding font synthesis, improved font matching and the ability to download remote fonts.[3]
Some CSS2 font properties were removed from CSS2.1 and later included in CSS3.[4][5]
Fallback fonts
The CSS specification allows for multiple fonts to be listed as fallback fonts.[6] In CSS, the
font-family property accepts a list of comma-separated font faces to use, like so:
font-family: Helvetica, "Nimbus Sans L", "Liberation Sans", Arial, sans-serif;
The first font specified is the preferred font. If this font is not available, the Web browser attempts to use the next font in the list. If none of the fonts specified are found, the browser displays its default font. This same process also happens on a per-character basis if the browser tries to display a character not present in the specified font.
Generic font families
To give Web designers some control over the appearance of fonts on their Web pages, even when the specified fonts are not available, the CSS specification allows the use of several generic font families. These families are designed to split fonts into several categories based on their general appearance. They are commonly specified as the last in a series of fallback fonts, as a last resort in the event that none of the fonts specified by the author are available. There are five generic families:[6]
- Fonts that do not have decorative markings, or serifs, on their letters. These fonts are often considered easier to read on screens.[7]
- Fonts that have decorative markings, or serifs, present on their characters.
- Fonts in which all characters are equally wide.
- Fonts that resemble cursive writing. These fonts may have a decorative appearance, but they can be difficult to read at small sizes, so they are generally used sparingly.
- Fonts that may contain symbols or other decorative properties, but still represent the specified character.
Web fonts
A technique to download remote fonts was first specified in the CSS2 specification, which introduced the
@font-face rule.
It was (and remains[8]) controversial because using a remote font as part of a Web page allows the font to be freely downloaded. This could result in fonts being used against the terms of their license or illegally spread through the Web. TrueDoc (PFR), Embedded OpenType (EOT) and Web Open Font Format (WOFF) are formats designed to address these issues.
Since the introduction of Internet Explorer 4, font embedding employing EOT has been used mainly for displaying characters in writing systems that are not supported by default fonts. Use on English-language Web sites was virtually non-existent. With the releases of Firefox 3.5, Opera 10 and Safari 3.1, usage employing other formats is expected to increase.
File formats
By using a specific CSS
@font-face embedding technique[9] it is possible to embed fonts such that they work with IE4+, Firefox 3.5+, Safari 3.1+, Opera 10+ and Chrome 4.0+. This allows the vast majority of Web users to access this functionality. Some commercial foundries object to the redistribution of their fonts. For example, Hoefler & Frere-Jones says that, while they "...enthusiastically [support] the emergence of a more expressive Web in which designers can safely and reliably use high-quality fonts online," the current delivery of fonts using
@font-face is considered "illegal distribution" by the foundry and is not permitted.[10] Instead, Hoefler & Co. offer a proprietary font delivery system rooted in the cloud. Many other commercial type foundries address the redistribution of their fonts by offering a specific license, known as a web font license, which permits the use of the font software to display content on the web, a usage normally prohibited by basic desktop licensed. Naturally this does not interfere with fonts and foundries under free licences.[m 1]
Bitstream developed TrueDoc, the first standard for embedding fonts. TrueDoc was natively supported in Netscape Navigator 4, but was discontinued in Netscape Navigator 6 and Mozilla, because Netscape could not release Bitstream's source code. A WebFont Player plugin was available for Internet Explorer, but the technology had to compete against Microsoft's Embedded OpenType fonts, natively supported since version 4.0.
Embedded OpenType
Internet Explorer has supported font embedding through the proprietary Embedded OpenType standard since version 4.0. It uses digital rights management techniques to help prevent fonts from being copied and used without a license. A simplified subset of EOT has been formalized under the name of CWT (Compatibility Web Type, formerly EOT-Lite)[11]
Scalable Vector Graphics
Web typography applies to SVG in two ways:
- All versions of the SVG 1.1 specification, including the SVGT subset, define a font module allowing the creation of fonts within an SVG document. Safari introduced support for many of these properties in version 3. Opera added preliminary support in version 8.0, with support for more properties in 9.0.
- The SVG specification lets CSS apply to SVG documents in a similar manner to HTML documents, and the
@font-facerule can be applied to text in SVG documents. Opera added support for this in version 10,[12] and WebKit since version 325 also supports this method using SVG fonts only.
Scalable Vector Graphics Fonts
SVG fonts is a W3C standard of fonts using SVG graphic that is now a subset of OpenType fonts.[13] This allows multicolor[14] or animated fonts.[15] It was first a subset of SVG 1.1 specifications[16] The SVG fonts as independent format is supported by most browsers apart from IE and Firefox, and is deprecated in Chrome (and Chromium).[17] That's now generally deprecated; the standard that most browser vendor agreed with is SVG font subset included in OpenType (and then WOFF superset, see below), called SVGOpenTypeFonts.[18] Firefox has supported SVG OpenType since Firefox 26. All major browsers should comply soon.[19]
Linking to industry-standard TrueType (TTF) and OpenType (TTF/OTF) fonts are supported by Mozilla Firefox 3.5+, Opera 10+,[20] Safari 3.1+,[21] Google Chrome 4.0+.[22] Internet Explorer 9+ supports only those fonts with embedding permissions set to installable.[23]
Web Open Font Format
WOFF has been supported by Mozilla Firefox 3.6+,[24] Google Chrome 5+,[25][26] Opera Presto,[27] and is supported by Internet Explorer 9 (since March 14, 2011).[28] Support is available on Mac OS X Lion's Safari from release 5.1.
Unicode fonts
Only two fonts available by default on the Windows platform, Microsoft Sans Serif and Lucida Sans Unicode, provide a wide Unicode character repertoire. A bug in Verdana (and the different handling of it by various user agents) hinders its usability where combining characters are desired.
A common hurdle in Web design is the design of mockups that include fonts that are not Web-safe. There are a number of solutions for situations like this. One common solution is to replace the text with a similar Web-safe font or use a series of similar-looking fallback fonts.
Another technique is image replacement. This practice involves overlaying text with an image containing the same text written in the desired font. This is good for aesthetic purposes, but prevents text selection, increases bandwidth use, and is bad for search engine optimization.
Also common is the use of Flash-based solutions such as sIFR. This is similar to image replacement techniques, though the text is selectable and rendered as a vector. However, this method requires the presence of a proprietary plugin on a client's system.
Font hosting services allow users to pay a subscription to host non-Web-safe fonts online. Most services host the font for the user and provide the necessary @font-face CSS declaration.
An example of a CSS @font-face setup:
@charset "utf-8"; @font-face { font-family: 'Journal'; src:url('http://your-own.site/fonts/journal/journal.woff') format('woff'), url('http://your-own.site/fonts/journal/journal.svg#Journal') format('svg'), url('http://your-own.site/fonts/journal/journal.ttf') format('truetype'), url('http://your-own.site/fonts/journal/journal.eot'), url('http://your-own.site/fonts/journal/journal.eot?#iefix') format('embedded-opentype'); font-weight: normal; font-style: normal; }
Practical considerations
|This section requires expansion. (August 2014)
In practice, it matters not only what web browser the audience is using but also how their operating system is configured. In 2010, type designer and consultant Thomas Phinney (Vice President of FontLab and formerly with Adobe[30]) wrote a step-by-step process for finding the best rendering solution, which—more or less jokingly—uses a large number of goto statements.[31] A more visually oriented flow chart was posted in the same year on the Typophile forum by Miha Zajec.[32]

I'm creating my first PalmOS application and I'm having the my next huge problem now.
The user should be able to enter a search string and the application shows all records, where the string was found. That's working great. I entered some test-strings in an array and coded the search routine.
- Code: Select all
string shopdata[7] = {
"0000040053981\nGourmet Gold Friskies Pastete mit Thunfisch und Makrele\n0,45",
"0000040056050\nThomy Delikatess-Senf\n0,89",
"0000040056494\nGourmet Gold Friskies Pastete mit Rind\n0,45",
"0000040058054\nHansaplast Classic Meterware\n2,99",
"00013330\nLebenszeichen Proof of Life\n7,99",
"999423001\nCoca Cola Spardose\n6,99",
"999425001\nCoca Cola Metall-Dose mit Schloss\n6,99",
"999432004\nB?ɬºbchen Shampoo & Shower Sport'n Fun + 25 % mehr Inhalt\n1,69"
But my problem now is, that I have to handle about 18000 data records and I don't know how to get them into my application.
My first experiment with entering in my source code worked great with some test data. But as I expected, it doesn't work. My compiler tells me "string segment too large", when I try to enter all my data this way. When I test it with only 800 records, I can compile my application but I only get a white screen on my Palm and it seems to hang up.
Has anybody an idea at can explain it to an absolute PocketC-noob, how to get 18000 data records into that machine?
One last info: My Palm is a Z22 - no card reader - only touchpad, pen and HotSync via USB.

I know, I'm really sorry for not updating for a very long time. I've been busy/drained with school, and posting something new is merely possible since there's nothing so interesting to post about.
Anyway, to cut the long waiting, here's something I've been looking forward to doing: FAMILY DATE! It's been a while. It had been really hard keeping up with shit from time to time without your parents around, but I'm tryna get used it, since crying wouldn't do any help. I've been crying myself to sleep and I can't sleep properly since they moved away. And I'm looking forward to every weekend they spend here in Manila.
We watched The Rise of The Planet of the Apes at MOA. (As usual) And the movie was really cool, except that my childhood crush got tasered to death by Caesar, the leader of all the apes and the main character in the movie. James Franco is way beyond HOT, and I must say his acting skills improved. (Well, cause I think he sucked at Spiderman) Any how, here's what I wore:

NEW YORK, N.Y. - The Los Angeles Dodgers and Arizona Diamondbacks will bring their thunder Down Under.
Major League Baseball will open the 2014 regular season in Australia, with the Dodgers and Diamondbacks playing a two-game series at the Sydney Cricket Ground.
The matchups March 22-23 mark baseball's first games in Australia that count.
"It's going to be fantastic," Aussie-born Dodgers reliever Peter Moylan said Wednesday. "I've been trying to preach the game back in Australia for years."
MLB and the players' union announced the international opening day just one day after Los Angeles and Arizona mixed it up in a big brawl at Dodger Stadium. The Diamondbacks and Dodgers already had a testy relationship before this scrape that resulted in six ejections.
"I always wanted to go to Australia," Dodgers outfielder Matt Kemp said. "Now I got a real reason to go and I get to play baseball."
Baseball opened its season at Tokyo in 2000, 2004, 2008 and 2012. The 1999 opener was held at Monterrey, Mexico, and the 2001 season began in San Juan, Puerto Rico.
The rest of the big league season next year is slated to resume on March 30.
The Dodgers-Diamondbacks opener will come 100 years after the Chicago White Sox and New York Giants played exhibition games at the same cricket venue. On Jan. 2, 1914, the White Sox beat the Giants 5-4 before an estimated 10,000 fans.
There also was an exhibition baseball game at the same site in December 1888 featuring Spalding's World Tourists.
"It's cool. It's great the sport is going to get a big game like that down there," said Oakland Athletics closer Grant Balfour, who is from Australia. "We had the Sydney Olympics there and Intercontinental Cup games, but we haven't had that kind of level of baseball there in a long, long time. It'll be fun to see."
The Sydney Cricket Ground will be configured to MLB standards for the opening series.
"I'm sure people are going to fly from all over the country to see the game," Moylan said. "The presentation of the grounds is going to be fantastic."
Moylan makes the grueling trip home to Melbourne in the off-season, and he expects the travel will take a toll on the players.
"Coming back is going to be the worst," he said.
Union head Michael Weiner said "the players are excited about opening the 2014 season in Sydney, and they view this series as an important step in furthering their commitment to help increase the global popularity of baseball."
Commissioner Bud Selig said in a statement, "The globalization of our game continues to be paramount to Major League Baseball, and Australia is an essential part of our long-term efforts to grow the sport. We look forward to writing an exciting new chapter in international baseball history at the historic Sydney Cricket Ground next March."
Dodgers President Stan Kasten said the team was eager to begin the season "in one of the most exciting and rapidly developing baseball markets on earth." Diamondbacks President Derrick Hall said "being at the forefront of spreading international goodwill on this prominent stage is a feat that we enthusiastically embrace and accept."
The Dodgers and Diamondbacks will play spring training games in Arizona on March 16, then leave for Australia and arrive on March 18. The teams will open the regular season on Saturday night, the 22nd, and meet again the next afternoon. Arizona will be the home team for both games.
"It should be a little tiring, but a lot of fun, too," Kemp said.
There have been 28 major leaguers born in Australia. The Dodgers have had five natives on their roster.
AP Baseball Writer Janie McCauley in Oakland, Calif., and AP Sports Writers Ronald Blum in New York and Beth Harris in Los Angeles contributed to this report.

Broward High Schools
American Heritage coach Mike Rumph wants to build consistent success
When Mike Rumph's playing days came to an end five years ago, the former University of Miami cornerback and San Francisco 49ers' first-round pick didn't exactly picture himself leading Plantation American Heritage into Friday's Class 5A state football championship at the Citrus Bowl Orlando.
Rumph thought he was going to be working with puppies.
"When I retired in 2007 with the Rams, I opened up a puppy store near Bal Habour with my wife [Veronica]," said Rumph, who won a national title in 2001 with the Hurricanes and spent five years in the pros.
"Puppies are the cutest thing ever, and the best part is they don't talk back. We had Maltese, Yorkies, Shih Tzus, schnauzers, dachshunds — all tea cup sized, 11 pounds or less. It was a good business to start off. Then the economy changed so we closed the store after two years."
Rumph went from puppies to personal training (he worked with former Hurricane Demarcus Van Dyke to prepare him for the draft). That quickly escalated to joining the coaching staff at Everglades High School in 2010. Rumph said he did it "out of convenience" because it was a five-minute jog from his home in Miramar.
"Once I started coaching and got a chance to work with the defensive backs at Everglades, I was sold," said Rumph, who left after one season and made a brief pit stop at Carol City the following spring before joining Heritage's staff as defensive coordinator that fall.
"Just to teach the kids what I know and learned in the NFL has been rewarding," he said. "If a kid can learn those things at 14, the sky is the limit for them."
Before Rumph replaced Jeff Dellenbach as coach, Heritage had only made one other state finals appearance in 1998. Heading into Friday's game, a 1 p.m. kickoff against Green Cove Springs Clay (9-4), the Patriots (13-1) have won their four playoff games by an average of 30 points.
Heritage's only loss this season came to Miami Central. The Rockets are ranked third nationally by USA Today and will play in Saturday's Class 6A state title game.
Rumph, whose son Jalen, 12, plays football on Heritage's junior high team, and whose daughter Sienna, 7, runs track, believes Friday's game is just the first step in Heritage becoming another Broward County football dynasty.
"The main thing he's brought is a different mentality," said former Dolphins cornerback Patrick Surtain, who coaches defensive backs at Heritage and is one of four coaches on staff with NFL experience (former Dolphins receiver Oronde Gadsden coaches receivers and former Bills safety Daryl Porter is the defensive coordinator).
"This team has always had talent — ever since [star running back] Sony [Michel] was in the eighth grade," Surtain said. "I think the great thing Coach Rumph did was the scheduling. He didn't schedule all those cupcakes. You can see this year in the playoffs we've been rolling people and it's due to the teams we played early."
This past summer, Rumph also challenged his team with a 41-day workout plan he says he borrowed from /George/ Smith at /St. Thomas/ Aquinas. The idea? No long summer vacations; just dedication to your teammates.
"The one thing about me is I listen and I learn," Rumph said.
He also knows Friday's opportunity to win a state championship is special.
"I played football 15 years straight and I only won one championship — my '01 [Miami] Hurricanes season — so this doesn't come by often," Rumph said. "I'm making sure they're informed and understand this isn't just a pushover. It's a game and we have to play our best football."

This two-day training is focused on strategic program management and capacity development topics. The curriculum will include planning activities for comprehensive immigration reform along with elements of CLINIC's highly praised Immigration Program Management training, extended for more advanced learning opportunities. The training will draw from these advanced areas:
►Planning in advance for implementing comprehensive immigration reform. Participants will be asked to analyze how they plan to respond to a sharp increase in demand of clients applying for immigration benefits after the passage of new legislation. Discussion will also include how to prepare leadership, funders, and the community for changes in service provision and the need for additional support and resources.
►Case management policies, procedures, and forms. Participants will be asked to bring their case management forms to the training for a thorough review of forms in use and assess them against best practices. Attention will be given to developing policies and procedures that can accommodate a higher client demand sure to come after comprehensive immigration law is passed.
►Program management challenges and ethical dilemmas with proposed solutions. Participants will learn from actual and hypothetical cases and share their own experiences.
►Measuring program outcomes for fundraising and marketing effectiveness. Participants will learn a logic model and apply it to designing a project and spotlighting outcomes which are attractive to many funders. Participants will also learn how to use the likelihood of new legislation in funding proposals, community events, and other marketing arenas to garner additional support for the immigration program.
►Group application workshop models with consideration of current uses in addition to prospective use for unexpected changes in immigration law or policy. Each participant will practice the workshop model and create a workshop plan for her or his program.
►Open forum for participants to raise issues, ask questions and share good practices that are replicable.
The training is suitable for program staff from a wide range of organizations, including established immigration programs, ethnic and immigrant organizations, domestic violence and sexual assault coalitions and service providers, unions, social services and medical providers, and educational programs (ESL and Citizenship).
The training will be presented by Michelle Sardone, CLINIC's Legalization Director, Leya Speasmaker, CLINIC's Field Support Coordinator, and Silvana Arista, CLINIC's Project Director.

There are no guarantees Peyton Manning's amazing comeback season will end with a New Orleans homecoming at Super Bowl XLVII, but the Denver Broncos appear to be on a championship path.
The Broncos cruised by the Kansas City Chiefs 38-3 on Sunday, ending the regular season on an 11-game winning streak. At 13-3, the Broncos are the No. 1 seed in the AFC, locking up home-field advantage throughout the conference playoffs.
The Broncos got help earlier in the day when the Houston Texans stumbled against the Indianapolis Colts. The Broncos had no interest in letting their own golden opportunity slip away, as Manning polished off an MVP-caliber season with three touchdowns and 304 passing yards before giving way to rookie backup Brock Osweiler early in the fourth quarter.
Manning finished the season with 4,659 passing yards, 37 touchdowns and a passer rating north of 105. Not bad for a guy some people thought couldn't do it anymore.
The intense race for the playoffs is in full gear. Check out the latest situation in the postseason chase. More ...
With the New England Patriots sliding into the No. 2 seed with a 28-0 win over the Miami Dolphins, Manning and Tom Brady are one playoff win away from bringing their iconic rivalry back to the AFC Championship Game.
Sunday's win ensured Manning will have his home fans behind him if such a scenario plays out.

Pared-Down Episcopal Church Is Looking to Grow Through 'Inclusivity' - NYTimes.com
Whether Episcopalians really can regenerate a church based on youth and "inclusivity" remains to be seen. So far, they have paid a price for their actions. Four bishops, the majority of their dioceses and numerous parishes around the country jumped ship in the last few years to form a new, theologically conservative entity called the Anglican Church in North America. That group will not consecrate women, not to mention gay men and lesbians, as bishops. It has about 100,000 members, while the Episcopal Church has about two million. But a church study shows that membership declined about 6 percent from 2003 to 2007. The Episcopal Church also saw its contributions decline...To theological conservatives, these are signs of a church that will ultimately collapse because it has sold its soul to secular political causes.
Well, I'm glad that I left over 10 years ago, because if I hadn't I'd be heartbroken.
Of course the Episcopal Church will survive my lifetime, getting older, grayer and smaller--as I get older, grayer and, worst of all, smaller. But it is not going to "grow through inclusivity." Do these priests really believe that the Church will regenerate and then some by picking up a larger gay clientele and attracting "young people" because of its new, cool image? I wouldn't put it past them. Back when I was a kid they thought they could attract me by doing folk masses and adopting the idiom of the youth culture as interpreted and expurgated by middle-aged clerics.
And, of course, the conservative Anglican lot will do even worse. In Episcopal Church dioceses they'll meet in school cafeterias until they get sick of it and join some more established coventicle of holy rollers. In break-away "Anglican" dioceses they'll effectively kill off the local Episcopal Church and then become just another evangelical Protestant denomination or quasi-denomination.
What were they thinking? The outcome was predictable: anyone could have seen it coming. This campaign for gay rights in the Episcopal Church didn't benefit gays who were perfectly capable of taking care of themselves and didn't need to be adopted as yet another victim group or social justice project. And it undermined the Church. It didn't make anyone better off and it made some people worse off. How could any agent, individual or corporate, knowingly set out to achieve such an end?
The only answer is that they were blinded by by their own arrogance. These priests, overpaid do-gooders working for an organization that represented 1% of the American public, imagined that they had a prophetic voice to which the great unwashed would listen. They imagined that they had the standing to be heard and the resources to make a difference, like rich old ladies assuming that they could get their way--imagining that because they had a small clientele of retainers and sycophants the whole world was listening to them, when they were nothing but laughable nobodies.
Express any reservations about the Episcopal Church's program and you get tarred as a conservative because the whole controversy was represented by the Church, and in the media to the extent that they paid attention, as a battle in Culture Wars between liberals and conservatives. So any critique was hopeless--especially vexing to me as a liberal. I don't think there as anything whatsoever wrong with homosexual activity. I don't, for that matter, think there is anything wrong with any consensual sexual activity, whether it's part of a "committed relationship" or not. Sex is a trivial entertainment.
But the priests who were promoting this agenda just couldn't or wouldn't distinguish between the question of whether homosexual activity was ok and the question of whether the Episcopal Church should launch a campaign to persuade people that it was. Maybe this was a manifestation of residual adolescent cynicism: if people object to the Church's agenda it's just a cover--they're really homophobic reactionaries and puritans who object to the goal of "inclusion."
So now, even if I wanted to go back, where would I go? I certainly have no sympathy whatsoever with the conservative agenda of these break-away groups. None allow women bishops and most won't even have women priests. Their ethical commitments, including their views on sexuality, are diametrically opposed to my own. But there is less room in the Episcopal Church for me because as a consequence of this fight the Church has become an ideologically based organization focused on promoting political agendas and engaging in social action. The miserable irony is that I support these political agendas and am largely in agreement with the social vision. I just don't think that this is what the Church is for--and I don't think that it can pursue these goals effectively. Politics and social action are the business of secular organizations--and I contribute and belong to lots of those.
Church is for religion, because it isn't in a position to do anything else effectively and no other organization can do religion at all. The Episcopal Church is going down the tubes because it's clergy don't think religion is important or interesting. I sat through endless discussions "facilitated" by church growth gurus during the Decade of Evangelism which articulated a "vision" for the Church which assumed that religion wasn't important and that, in any case, people weren't interested in it. To attract members "congregations" (another buzz word) need to offer an array of essentially secular programs and activities--schools and pre-schools, coffee-klatch groups for stay-at-home moms, barbecuing consortia for guys, youth groups for high school kids, do-good projects and volunteer work, softball games and golf tournaments, adult education on various topics, crafts groups, exercise groups and every sort of community activity. Then they would come because those where the things that interested people--not religion.
But they didn't come, because secular organizations provided all this cheaper and better. Now that religious affiliation is de facto as well as de jure optional people are not going to bother with the Church unless they're interested in religion.
So now where are people who are interested in religion supposed to go, now that the Episcopal Church has gone further down the road to being a private, upscale community center? I saw where the Church was going years ago on a trip to Alaska to give a lecture and visit a theologian friend. She took me to the local Episcopal Church which had been colonized by academics and area yuppies--the tiny minority who were not yet resolutely secular. It was, I recall, an A-frame ski lodge affair in polished beech with a large hand-crafted patch quilt hanging from a balcony. The service consisted of selections of Good Music performed by the virtuoso organist, who taught at the university music department, and announcements of the various activities in which the congregation was engaged, including AIDS ministry, recycling and various social action projects. The liturgy was squeezed into the cracks of the corporate self-congratulation ceremony and there was, of course, the inevitable home-crafted bread baked by some organic housewife in birkenstocks.
But what are the alternatives? None for me because the split in the Church--not merely in the Anglican Church between Episcopalians and break-away groups, but between the old mainline and evangelicals across the board--mirrors the Culture Wars split in the larger society between secular liberals and religious conservatives. The difference is that within the larger society secular liberals are increasing while conservative evangelicals are declining, within the churches conservative evangelicals are taking increasing market share while the mainline is dying out. So the end toward this trend is heading will be the picture Obama's publicity crew has in mind when it tags yet another minority to be conciliated as "people of faith." The US, belatedly, will become a secular society on the European model, where most people are polite agnostics and where a small minority of polite conservatives, on the Rick Warren evangelical lite model, promotes family values.

All change is difficult to accept. The older we get the more difficult it becomes. While the diminution of metaphysical content seems directed toward oblivion, the complaint is exactly the same one made in the 16th century when the Anglican Episcopal Church decided the Bishop of Rome was headed in the wrong direction.

At last--a comment that isn't Chinese spam.
The issue isn't one of change. It's one of, forgive me, consumerism. I'm all for letting many flowers bloom. If people want to do church in faux-ski-lodges, that's fine with me. If they want to do goody-goody social service projects and reverently consume the whole grain breads yuppie housewives bake, fine too. Personally, I can't imagine why anyone would want this boring, smarmy pious garbage. I can't imagine enjoying it but de gustibus.
I want my metaphysics and mysticism. I have no interest in social service or political activism. If I did I wouldn't do it under the auspices of the church. I want a magical mystery tour, enchantment and metaphysical thrills. That's what I joined the church for. If the church won't provide it fuck the church.
Yes I am a spoiled brat. Wanna make something of it?

Logical and obvious yet so many people don't do these things. Many thanks - really enjoyable - Sally
Is this about Debt Collection?
More about Debtor Management then Debt Collection. Debt Collection is like "An ambulance at the bottom of the hill." This is more about the "Fences at the top of the hill" that greatly reduce the need for ambulances at the bottom. Good Debtor Management is better than resorting to Debt Collection. Like the medical people tells us "Prevention is better than Cure" The better you build and maintain the fences at the "Top of the Hill" then the less you need "ambulances at the bottom of the hill."

Mervyn King, governor of the Bank of England, has shocked the staid world of British banking by raising the possibility of breaking up the UKs big banks. Mr. King is no socialist, but a worried banking regulator. He is worried about "the sheer creative imagination of of the financial sector to think up new ways of taking risk."
Around the world, regulators and finance ministers are hoping that banks will grow their way out of their current mess. To do so, however, banks will in fact need to seek new ways of taking on risk. It is called going for broke: the upside goes to stockholders and managers, and the downside to taxpayers. Mr. King knows that it is a "delusion" that regulators can control bank risk-taking.
Whether one agrees with his solution, at least he recognizes the problem. Would that were true of Treasury and Fed officials in the United States.

Goodmorning, everyone!!
This is one of my newest videos, and it's a little crash-course in hardfacing with a stick welder...
To be honest, its a little outside my area of experience, but I'd had a LOT of requests for a hardsurfacing video, so I researched it for hours, practiced a little, and put this together... Hopefully, if you're interested in hardfacing, this will be enough to get you started
Anyway, this is one of those cases where a picture is worth a thousand words, but I'll do my best to describe it for anyone who cant/doesn't want to watch the video itself... I talk a little about what hardsurfacing is, and about preparation for the process... It goes over putting down a "buttering layer" of softer metal to act as a go-between for the softer base metal, and harder "cover layer", and also to repair the base metal... I even wear an apron in this video
Just thought I'd share... Have an awesome Tuesday, everyone!!
(I'll have more videos here soon... Although Im currently on "forced vacation" after damaging a camera during a welding shot... Best Buy has it now, the protection plan I bought with the camera covered the new lens, but it'll probably be a week until I can make more videos )

Star Trek III: The Search for Spock
1984 American science fiction film directed by Leonard Nimoy
Star Trek III: The Search for Spock (Paramount Pictures, 1984) is the third feature film based on the popular Star Trek science fiction television series. It is a direct sequel to Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan, and has a similar feel, although often with a lighter, more humorous touch.
- Directed by Leonard Nimoy. Written by Harve Bennett.
(Join the search.)
- James T. Kirk: Scotty, progress report?
- Montgomery Scott: Almost done, sir! You'll be fully automated by the time we dock.
- James T. Kirk: Your timing is excellent, Mr. Scott. You've fixed the barn door after the horse has come home. How much refit time before we can take her out again?
- Montgomery Scott: Eight weeks, sir -- [Kirk opens his mouth] -- but ye don't have eight weeks, so I'll do it for ye in two.
- James T. Kirk: Mr. Scott. Have you always multiplied your repair estimates by a factor of four?
- Montgomery Scott: Certainly, sir. How else can I keep my reputation as a miracle worker?
- James T. Kirk: [over the intercom] Your reputation is secure, Scotty.
- [First look at the USS Excelsior]
- Uhura: Would you look at that.
- James T. Kirk: My friends, the great experiment...the Excelsior, ready for trial runs.
- Hikaru Sulu: She's supposed to have transwarp drive.
- Montgomery Scott:[unimpressed] Aye. And if my grandmother had wheels, she'd be a wagon.
- James T. Kirk: Come, come, Mr. Scott. Young minds, fresh ideas. Be tolerant.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: You've all done a remarkable service under the most difficult conditions. You'll be receiving Starfleet's highest commendations. And more importantly...extended shore leave. That is, all but you, Mr. Scott. They need your wisdom on the new Excelsior. Report there tomorrow as Captain of Engineering.
- Montgomery Scott: With all appreciation, sir, I prefer to supervise the refit of Enterprise.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: I'm afraid that won't be necessary.
- Montgomery Scott: But, sir...
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: I'm sorry, Mr. Scott, but there will be no refit.
- James T. Kirk: Admiral...I don't understand. The Enterprise is not—
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: Jim, the Enterprise is twenty years old! We feel her day is over.
- James T. Kirk: But we had requested...we had hoped to take her back to Genesis.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: That is out of the question.
- James T. Kirk: May I ask why?
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: In your absence, Genesis has become a galactic controversy. Until the Federation Council makes policy, you are all under orders not to discuss with anyone your knowledge of Genesis. Consider it a quarantined planet...and a forbidden subject.
- James T. Kirk:(Upon realizing who has Spock's Katra) McCoy!
- Sarek: One alive, one not -- yet both in pain.
- James T. Kirk: What must I do?
- Sarek: You must bring them to Mt. Seleya, on Vulcan. Only there can both find peace.
- James T. Kirk: What you ask . . . is difficult.
- Sarek: You will find a way, Kirk . . . if you honor them both, you must.
- James T. Kirk: I will -- I swear.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: No, absolutely not, Jim. You're my best officer. But I am the Commander of Starfleet, so I don't break rules.
- James T. Kirk: Don't quote rules to me! I'm talking about loyalty and sacrifice. One man who's died for us! Another with deep emotional problems.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: Now wait a minute. This business about Spock and McCoy...honestly, I've never understood...Vulcan mysticisms!
- James T. Kirk: You don't have to believe. I'm not even sure that I believe. But if there's even a chance that Spock has an eternal soul, then it's my responsibility.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: Yours?
- James T. Kirk: (nodding his head) As surely...as if it were my very own. Give me back the Enterprise. With Scotty's help, I can—
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: No, Jim! The Enterprise would never stand the pounding, and you know it!
- James T. Kirk: Then I'll find a ship. I'll hire a ship.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: Out of the question, my friend. The Council has ordered that no one but the science team goes to Genesis! Jim, your life and your career stand for rationality, not for intellectual chaos! Keep up this emotional behavior, and you'll lose everything! You'll destroy yourself! Do you understand me, Jim?
- James T. Kirk: I hear you. (chuckles) I had to try.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: Of course.
- James T. Kirk: Thanks for the drink.
- Fleet Admiral Morrow: Anytime.
- Hikaru Sulu: The word, sir?
- James T. Kirk: The word...is no. I am therefore going anyway.
- Hikaru Sulu: You can count on our help, sir.
- James T. Kirk: Thank you, Mr. Sulu, I'll need it.
- Pavel Chekov: Shall I alert Dr. McCoy?
- James T. Kirk: Please. He has a long journey ahead of him.
- [The Federation warden is leading him to McCoy's holding cell.]
- Warden: Make it quick, Admiral, they're moving him to the Federation Funny Farm.
- James T. Kirk: Yes, poor friend. I hear he's nutty as a fruitcake.
- Warden: (unlocking the computer door's holding cell) Two minutes.
- Leonard McCoy: Jim!
- James T. Kirk: [He enters McCoy's cell and holds up his hand in the Vulcan hand salute] How many fingers do I have up?
- Leonard McCoy: That's not very damn funny.
- James T. Kirk: Your sense of humor's returned.
- Leonard McCoy: The hell it has. [Kirk produces a hypospray from his jacket pocket] What's that?
- James T. Kirk: Lexorin.
- Leonard McCoy: Lexorin? What for?
- James T. Kirk: You're suffering from a Vulcan mind-meld, Doctor.
- Leonard McCoy: That green-blooded son of a bitch! It's his revenge for all those arguments he lost.
- [Sulu comes in with his badge.]
- Hikaru Sulu: Where's Admiral Kirk?
- Warden: He's with the prisoner.
- Hikaru Sulu: Get him quickly; the Commander of Starfleet wants him right away.
- [The warden retrieves his key to get Admiral Kirk. Sulu is left in a room with a security guard, who has his feet up and yawns loudly]
- Hikaru Sulu: [sarcastically] Keeping you busy?
- [The guard stands up, towering menacingly over Sulu]
- Guard: Don't get smart, Tiny.
- [after Sulu easily dispatches the bigger guard in a fight]
- Hikaru Sulu: Don't call me Tiny.
- Captain Styles: Ah, Mr. Scott. Calling it a night?
- Montgomery Scott: Uh, yes, sir.
- Captain Styles: Turning in myself, looking forward to breaking some of the Enterprise's speed records tomorrow.
- Montgomery Scott: Ah, yes, sir. Good night.
- Elevator voice: Level, please.
- Montgomery Scott: Transporter room.
- Elevator voice: Thank you.
- Montgomery Scott: [under breath] Up your shaft.
- Mr. Adventure: You amaze me, Commander.
- Commander Uhura: Oh, how is that?
- Mr. Adventure: A 20-year space veteran, yet you choose the worst duty station in town. I mean, look at this place! This is the hind end of space.
- Commander Uhura: Some peace and quiet appeals to me, Lieutenant.
- Mr. Adventure: Yeah, well, maybe that's OK for someone like you, whose career is winding down. But me...I gotta have some challenge in my life, some adventure, maybe even just a surprise or two.
- Commander Uhura: Well, you know what they say, Lieutenant: Be careful what you wish for; you may get it.
- [Captain Styles is relaxing on his bed and filing his nails.]
- Bridge Crew Chief: Yellow Alert. Captain to the bridge. Yellow Alert.
- Captain Styles:[turns on the intercom with a nail file] Bridge, this is the captain. How can we have a Yellow Alert in Spacedock?
- Bridge Crew Chief: Sir, someone is stealing the Enterprise.
- Captain Styles: I'm on my way.
- Captain Styles: Kirk...if you do this, you'll never sit in the Captain's chair again!
- Excelsior computer: Transwarp drive, maximum velocity in five, four, three, two, one. (as the USS Excelsior grinds to a halt)
- James T. Kirk: Scotty, as good as your word.
- Montgomery Scott: Aye, sir. The more they overthink the plumbing, the easier it is to stop up the drain. [hands McCoy a fistful of computer chips] Here, Doctor, souvenirs from one surgeon to another. I took them out of her main transwarp computer drive.
- Leonard McCoy: Nice of you to tell me in advance.
- James T. Kirk: That's what you get for missing staff meetings, Doctor. Gentlemen, your work today has been outstanding. I intend to recommend you all for promotion...in whatever fleet we end up serving. Best speed to Genesis.
- [One of Kruge's gunners has defied a direct order to disable the engines of the USS Grissom by destroying the ship with everyone inside except Saavik, Spock and David Marcus.]
- Kruge: [in Klingonese] I wanted prisoners!
- Gunner 1: [in Klingonese] A lucky shot, sir!
- Kruge: [pulls out his disruptor and shoots his gunner for his insurrection. In Klingonese] Animal!
- Torg: Sir, may I suggest...
- Kruge: [aiming his gun at Torg] Say the wrong thing, Torg!!
- Torg: ...that if it's prisoners you want, there are life signs on the planet. Perhaps the very scientists you seek.
- Kruge: [Taking notice of Saavik's distress call for the Grissom on his radar] Very good.
- Saavik: It's time for total truth between us. This planet is not what you intended or hoped for, is it?
- David Marcus: Not exactly.
- Saavik: Why?
- David Marcus: I used protomatter in the Genesis matrix.
- Saavik: Protomatter, an unstable substance which every ethical scientist has denounced as dangerously unpredictable.
- David Marcus: But it was the only way to solve certain problems. Only my mother knew nothing about it.
- Saavik: So like your father, you changed the rules.
- David Marcus: If I hadn't, it might have been years or never.
- Saavik: How many have paid the price for your impatience? How many have died? How much damage have you done? And what is yet to come?
- Kruge: I've come a long way for the power of Genesis, and what do I find? A weakling human, a Vulcan boy, and a woman.
- Saavik: My lord, we are survivors of a doomed expedition. This planet will destroy itself in hours. The Genesis experiment is a failure.
- Kruge: A failure. The most powerful destructive force ever created. You will tell me the secret of the Genesis torpedo.
- Saavik: I have no knowledge.
- Kruge: Then I hope pain is something you enjoy.
- Kruge:[taking his communicator from one of his guards] I ordered no interruptions.
- Torg: But, sir, a Federation starship is approaching.
- Kruge: Bring me up.
- David Marcus: Hello, sir. It's David.
- James T. Kirk: I'm sorry I'm late.
- David Marcus: It's okay. I should've known you'd come. But Saavik's right. This planet is unstable; it's going to destroy itself in a matter of hours.
- James T. Kirk: David, what went wrong?
- David Marcus: I went wrong.
- James T. Kirk: I don't understand.
- David Marcus: I'm sorry, sir. Just don't surrender. Genesis doesn't work. I can't believe they'd kill us for it.
- [David's last words]
- Kruge: Admiral, your young friend is mistaken; I meant what I said. And now to show that my intentions are sincere, I shall kill one of the prisoners.
- James T. Kirk: Wait a minute! Give me a chance to talk.
- Kruge: [in Klingonese] Kill one of them. I don't care which.
- Kruge: There are two more prisoners, Admiral. You want them killed, too? Surrender your vessel.
- James T. Kirk: All right...all right, damn you. All right. Give me a minute to inform my crew.
- Kruge: I give two minutes...for you and your gallant crew.
- Kruge: Take every last man. Form a boarding party armed heavily.
- Torg: But they outnumber us, my...
- Kruge: [shouts] We are Klingons! Once you control the ship, we'll transfer our flag there and take Genesis from their own memory banks.
- James T. Kirk: Mr. Sulu, what is the crew complement of a bird of prey?
- Hikaru Sulu: About a dozen officers and men.
- James T. Kirk: With some of them on the planet. I swear to you, we're not finished yet. Bones, you and Sulu to the transporter room. The rest of you with me, we have a job to do. [to Kruge] Commander of Klingon vessel...prepare to board this ship on my next signal.
- Kruge: No tricks, Kirk. You have one minute.
- James T. Kirk: No tricks. I'm looking forward to meeting you.
- James T. Kirk: Computer, this is Admiral James T. Kirk. Request security access. [the Enterprise computer acknowledges Kirk's identity] Computer, destruct sequence 1, code 1, 1-A.
- Montgomery Scott: Computer, Commander Montgomery Scott, Chief Engineering Officer, destruct sequence 2, code 1, 1-A, 2-B.
- Pavel Chekov: Computer, this is Commander Pavel Chekov, Acting Science Officer, destruct sequence 3, code 1-B, 2-B, 3.
- Computer: Destruct sequence completed and engaged, awaiting final code for one minute countdown.
- James T. Kirk: Code zero, zero, zero...destruct...zero.
- Computer: Destruct sequence is activated.
- [The Klingons have boarded the Enterprise]
- Torg: My lord, the ship appears to be deserted.
- Kruge: How can that be? They're hiding!
- Torg: Yes, sir. But the bridge seems to be run by computer. It is the only thing speaking.
- [Torg's last words]
- Kruge: Speaking? Let me hear.
- Computer: 9...8...7...6... 5...
- Kruge: [Realizing he was tricked by Kirk and the Enterprise is about to self destruct, he shouts to his crew] GET OUT!!! GET OUT OF THERE!!! GET OUT!!!
- Computer: 2... 1...
- [The Enterprise bridge explodes in a burst of flame with most of the Klingon crew inside. Kruge's ship drifts away as the Enterprise continues exploding into flames.]
- James T. Kirk: [Looking up from the planet surface to see the remains of the Enterprise burning up in a fireball in the atmosphere] My God, Bones, what have I done?
- Leonard McCoy: What you had to do, what you always do. Turned death into a fighting chance to live.
- [McCoy uses a medical device to calm Spock down.]
- Leonard McCoy: Rapid aging. All genetic functions highly accelerated.
- James T. Kirk: What about his mind?
- Leonard McCoy: His mind's a void. It seems, Admiral, that I've got all his marbles.
- James T. Kirk: Is there anything we can do?
- Saavik: Only one thing, sir; get him off this planet. His aging is part of what's going on around us.
- Kruge: Genesis. I want it!
- James T. Kirk: Beam the Vulcan up, and we'll talk.
- Kruge: Give me what I want, and I'll consider it.
- James T. Kirk: You fool, look around you! The planet's destroying itself!
- Kruge: Yes, exhilarating, isn't it?
- James T. Kirk: If we don't help each other, we'll die here.
- Kruge: Perfect. Then that's the way it shall be.
- [James, while kicking Kruge off of the cliff's edge]
- James T. Kirk: I -- have HAD -- enough of -- YOU!
- [Kruge falls screaming into the lavascape below]
- [Leonard, seated before Spock, who's lying unconscious on a bed in the sickbay of the Klingon Bird of Prey en route to Vulcan]
- Leonard McCoy: Spock! For God sakes, talk to me! You stuck this damn thing in my head, remember? Remember? Now tell me what to do with it. Help me. [McCoy sits up straight: his face visibly changing from an air of urgency to one of concern.] I'm going to tell you something that I...never thought I'd ever hear myself say. But it seems I've...missed you, and I don't know if I could...stand to lose you again.
- T'Lar: Sarek! Child of Skon! Child of Solkar! The body of your son breathes still. What is your wish?
- Sarek: I ask for fal-tor-pan, the refusion.
- T'Lar: What you seek has not done since ages past...and then, only in legend. Your request is not logical.
- Sarek: Forgive me, T'Lar. My logic is uncertain, where my son is concerned.
- T'Lar: Who is the keeper of the Katra?
- Leonard McCoy: I am. McCoy. Leonard H.. Son of David.
- T'Lar: McCoy, son of David. Since thou art human, we cannot expect thee understand fully what Sarek has requested. Spock's body lives. With your approval, we shall use all our powers to return to his body that which you possess. But McCoy, you must now be warned. The danger to thyself is as grave as the danger to Spock. You must make the choice.
- Leonard McCoy: I choose the danger.
- [Kirk glances at McCoy]
- Leonard McCoy: [Mutters to Kirk] Hell of a time to ask.
- [Kirk sees McCoy come down with Sarek]
- Leonard McCoy: I'm all right, Jim.
- James T. Kirk: What about Spock?
- Sarek:[About Spock] Only time will tell. Kirk, I thank you. What you've done is...
- James T. Kirk: What I've done, I had to do.
- Sarek: But at what cost? Your ship. Your son.
- James T. Kirk: If I hadn't tried, the cost would have been my soul.
- Spock: My father says that you have been my friend. You came back for me.
- James T. Kirk: You would have done the same for me.
- Spock: Why would you do this?
- James T. Kirk: Because the needs of the one . . . outweigh the needs of the many.
- Spock: (Spock begins to remember) I have been and ever shall be your friend.
- James T. Kirk: Yes. Yes, Spock.
- Spock: The ship...out of danger?
- James T. Kirk: You saved the ship. You saved us all. Don't you remember?
- Spock: Jim...your name is Jim.
- James T. Kirk: Yes.
- [last lines]
