Man rescued after truck lands in riverFebruary 26,2013
ST. ALBANS Vermont State Police say a St. Albans man has been rescued from the Missisquoi River after he lost control of his truck and went over an embankment.
Police said 22-year-old Colby Vezina was driving a pickup truck down a wet and slightly snow-covered road early Sunday when he lost control of the vehicle in Sheldon. Police said the truck landed upside down, partly under water in the river.
Police said a homeowner who lives near the crash site quickly called 911 for help. First responders from Sheldon and Enosburg quickly arrived and pulled him from the river.
Police said Vezina suffered relatively minor hypothermia. They say it appears alcohol and speed contributed to the crash.MORE IN Vermont NewsMONTPELIER The Democratic Governors Association has yet to launch a television ad in favor of...

Forums → Newcomers Forum → Manual Forum Codes
Okay, Cenere suggested it so i whacked this up for u guys.
The BOLDS!!
Okay, this code just makes your text more err bigger looking. Go for this when you want your text to be seen.
Start with a "[" square bracket. add the letter "b" and "]" so the start looks like . Put your text after that so it looks like "[b](Text here)". Then close it with this
The Italics
This makes your text more discreet looking, or use it to make your text look magical (lol? dunno what to describe it as)
Exactly the same as bold just put an "i" instead of a "b"
The Link
This is used to display a link with a selected "cover" name... The code is a bit harder for this
Okay, you start with the normal open square bracket "[". After that add the "url" so it looks like this "[url". Then add an "=" sign so it looks like this "". Add your name after so the bit looks like this " ~~~~(this is the url).com/](Your name here)". Then end the code with a "[" and "/" and "url" and "]" so it looks like this ".com/](Your name here).
The Image
The image is used to display an image to ag or display a .gif animation.
Okay... Start with the code "" so it ends with ".com[/img]".
The Quote
The quote is used to quote another users post... But i used it to display the codes.
[quote]Start with [ q u o t e ] (Miss the spaces or else its gonna look like a quote in a quote. Copy and Paste whatever you want to quote in there. Then end with [ / q u o t e ].[quote]
Hope it helped, ill post abit more info on what the buttons do later.
- 10 Replies
thanks but the button's are there for ready-useage (:
nice guide,hope it get stickied
yea... i know there a buttons, so im gonna try ad a really long and good descriptions for them later ^^
O dang... Didnt all show up properly...
Ok just end a bold with "[/b]"
The URL thing is like this "[ u r l = w w w . a r m o r g a m e s . c o m ] A G [ / u r l]" (Miss all spaces)
I think all the quotes get italic'd too ^^
Some seem to not see the buttons. Personally I write the url-code and the img-code out, because I am using IE, and it hates popups that should help people... So only using the bold, italic and quote code-button.
What is more important: All the codes are lowercase, and I will say it again: lowercase. Not capitals.
And when posting an image, the link for the code is to be the direct link from photobucket. If you use imageshack, there is some of the coding you have to take off, as I remember, because there is no direct link there.
Thanks Cenere ^^
I was gonna put that in but decided to put that off 4 when i do descriptions...
Thx again Cener ^^
so it ends with ".com[/img]
If the image is to show up, it will need to end with .jpg[/img], .gif[/img], .png[/img] and so on. Never .com, because that would be the website it is hosted on, not the specific address the image actually is.
It is always possible to right click an image and copy image location, unless you have a weird browser. That's how you get the URL for it.
Also, on a Mac, ctrl+i puts the italic code in, and ctrl+b puts the bold in. I like that feature.
well, Xophia, I believe that "copy image location" only is in Firefox, (not checked all browsers).
A very nice guide, Esuna/Cenere, although I use the buttons since I do not want to type it out manually.
I thought IE had it too... Safari has 'copy image address', which is the exact same thing.
IE have a, uhm, features thing when rightclicking on the images, the lowest of the options, and then copy the image adress. So a little more annoying, I guess.
Cant you just double click on ie and it selects the whole adress? Then Ctrl + C and Ctrl + Paste?...
Also, could this be stickied?

Sharp pricing on an expanded assortment of food and consumables is one way for Target to get customers to shop its stores more frequently, but this week saw the company break out another type of trip generator with the cover of its weekly ad featuring tee shirts and shorts at an opening price point of $3.
At that price, moms have pretty low expectations of quality. Cut and color matter more than the finish work on seams, since the clothes only need to last for a couple months until summer. The garments will be outgrown by next summer and the cycle repeats itself.
From Target's perspective, the cheap kids clothes are a powerful draw to get mom in the door where she is likely to purchase stuff for herself as well as other kids' summer time products. For example, another section of the circular featured such products as Allegra, vitamins, Neosporin, Band-Aids, and children's Advil as part of an offering of family wellness essentials.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2016
Origins Available: Irish-Alt, Irish
Irish names tend to vary widely in their spelling and overall form. The original Gaelic form of the name Cavanaugh is Caomhanach, an adjective denoting association with St. Caomhan. The first Kavanagh, Donal, the son of Dermot MacMurrough, was fostered by a successor of this saint.
The surname Cavanaugh was first found in County Carlow (Irish: Cheatharlach) a small landlocked area located in the province of Leinster in the South East of Ireland, where they held a family seat from very ancient times. The Kavanaghs (Cavanaghs) were descended from the MacMorough stem and were Lords of Leinster. Donoch McMorough was the King of Leinster, son of Dermod and it was from Donoch from which the Cavanaghs sprang. They were descended directly from the Heremon Line of Irish Kings. Donell, son of Dermot MacMurrough acquired the name Caomhanach, or Cavanagh. His sister Eva married Strongbow, Earl of Pembroke, the leader of the English invasion of Ireland. [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Lowe, Mark Anthony, Patronymica Britannica, A Dictionary of Family Names of the United Kingdom. London: John Russel Smith, 1860. Print.
Many spelling variations of the surname Cavanaugh can be found in the archives. One reason for these variations is that ancient scribes and church officials recorded names as they were pronounced, often resulting in a single person being recorded under several different spellings. The different spellings that were found include Cavanagh, Kavanagh, Kavanah, Cavanaugh, Keevan, Cavanaw, Kavanaw, Cavenaugh, Cavanough, Cavaneagh, Cavana, Cavena, Cavinaugh, Kavina, Kavena, Kavanaugh, Cavanach, Kavanach, Cabenagh, O'Cavanagh, O'Kavanagh, Keaveney, Geaveney, M'Cavanna and many more.

In the 19th century, thousands of Irish left their English-occupied homeland for North Ameri ca. Like most new world settlers, the Irish initially settled on the eastern shores of the continent but began to move westward with the promise of owning land. The height of this Irish migration came during the Great Potato Famine of the late 1840s. With apparently nothing to lose, Irish people left on ships bound for North America and Australia. Unfortunately a great many of these passengers lost their lives - the only thing many had left - to disease, starvation, and accidents during the long and dangerous journey. Those who did safely arrive in "the land of opportunities" were often used for the hard labor of building railroads, coal mines, bridges, and canals. The Irish were critical to the quick development of the infrastructure of the United States and Canada. Passenger and immigration lists indicate that members of the Cavanaugh family came to North America quite early:
Cavanaugh Settlers in United States in the 19th Century
Cavanaugh Settlers in Canada in the 18th Century
Other References
The Cavanaugh Family Crest was acquired from the Houseofnames.com archives. The Cavanaugh Family Crest was drawn according to heraldic standards based on published blazons. We generally include the oldest published family crest once associated with each surname.

The dress color was specifically picked for the affair and all the accessories were bought to match the color ordered. The dress was not received until a 5 days before the affair and could not be replaced in the short time.
Promgowndress.com refused to take the dress back and refund my money. They offered to make the dress in red, my color choice was teal, and have it to me a week after the affair...and get this, charge me a discounted amount of $108 to make a bright red dress for a 14 year old!
The unprofessionalism and disconcerned staff at this sweat shop is frightening if it exists in America. I have been emailing for over 6 months and still have not been able to get anyone on the phone or to answer my questions about a refund.
DO NOT USE THIS SITE TO ORDER YOUR DRESS. You will be stuck at the last minute with nothing to wear when they send you whatever color material they have lying around and need to get rid of.

Just want to let you know that I received the dresses today from fashionor.com, and they are FABULOUS!!
I was nervous about ordering online, particularly with having a very curvy body but it was beautifully made, including the custom alterations I asked for.
Thank you sooooooooo much.O(∩_∩)O~

Welcome to my profile! \(*O*)/
Heeyah! Hello, Watty! Ü
Just a little background. I love to write, a lot! It's not just for interest but this is also my way of escape, my personal escape. I write to ease the pain, to capture the moments and to lighten my moods. But times , I simply write because too many thoughts run in my mind.
There's always a little truths in my every stories. I left pieces of me so that when time comes I forgot some things that matters most for me, there will always be a reminder for me to relive the moments as well as the feelings and emotions capture at that time. Because I knew how sad it is to be easily forgotten.
Love you sweeties! :** ♥

While setting up my site I realized I didn't want to have my blog or "posts" to show up on the front page of the site. I would like to have my posts (all of them) only display on a separate page, in this case cleverly named...blog.
So, after a short search I found the easy way to accomplish this was to go to settings>reading> to choose a "static" page as my front page and do the same for my "posts page".
After doing so and setting up a few dummy postings my "blog" is currently blank. I've searched quite a bit through the forum and see that using the method of catagorizing the posts and them assigning them to only display on certain pages would work in my case but I find it to be a little on the unnecessary side since I want all of my posts to show on only one page...which unfortunately happens to NOT be the main front page.
The posts will display if I go to their specific url or click on them in the sidebar list but not on their assigned page. Also, the "blog" page I set them to display on is setup with nothing but a title.
So, I would appreciate any tips, hints, plug-ins, slap in the head, etc. to figure this all out.

Had a great experience! I will definitely use this service again!
The groceries, the convenience and the service we received were absolutely wonderful! The young man that delivered our groceries even put them in the fridge for me while I checked off the list. So you don't have to rent a car just to run to the grocery store or if you just want to relax and don't want to waste precious holiday time! The added bonus of being able to order the beer and wine was fantastic too! As seniors it's great not to have to haul all of that heavy stuff from the car either.
Fantastic experience for our first trip to Disney!

"Such knife-thin odds. That she would be alive. That she could be found. That she could endure such loss. Surely, in the face of such bitterness the spirit could atrophy. How, she was asked, had she survived?
The answer came wrapped in unshakable certitude.
"It was," said Sharbat Gula, "the will of God."
How does one hope to educate an individual such as this out of a lifetime of witness? How many million Sharbat Gula's exist in today's world?
And on the other hand, one of the most prominent Muslims in today's news, Khizr Khan, is a lawyer. His education has not turned him from Islam. How many Khizr Khans exist in today's world?]]>
Any recommendations or suggestions?]]>
The problem with the "what it is like to be" idea (for anyone who's a bit savvy with the old meditation stuff) is this: what is it that one supposes oneself to be, such that it's something like to be that thing? Is it a separate, limited self, as Harris would elsewhere say is a kind of illusion? Or is it not rather the world itself, the universe, that one really, really is, at the bottom of the bottle? In which case, consciousness as a separate puzzle sort of "cancels out", and you're pushed back the mystery of Being itself. "Consciousness" as a term for a mysterious "insideness" is redundant, the sole mystery remaining is the existence of anything at all, but there's no puzzle that it's like something to be something. "Consciousness" (the "insider" version) is then just the very being, the very existence, of a particular, complex lump of matter/energy.
I think the main problem here is, as always (as dear old Wittgenstein would have said) confusion coming from language. I said "insider version" above; there's another, more ordinary version of the term "consciousness", and that is the plain third-person term that Dennett talks about when he talks about "heterophenomenology". How many fingers am I holding up? In that sense, it is agreed on all sides that a Zombie can be conscious - it can certainly navigate the world just as well as we can, and is aware of things in that sense.
I tend to think that the Problem of Consciousness arises when we introject (as it were) that public sense of consciousness, with its schema of observable Perceiver -> Percieved, turn it around 180 degrees and put it on our face (so to speak). When we do that, we beg the question of there being a "thing" inside that "is conscious" that's somehow distinct from the previously perfectly normally observable thing that is conscious in the public sense (e.g. an animal - or a Zombie for that matter - avoiding a trap).
But is this a legitimate maneouver, or is not rather the very source of both the Problem of Consciousness in the philosophical sense, and the illusion of selfhood in the Non-Dual sense?
Because if you think about it, "what it is like to be", doesn't reveal something special and mysterious, it just reveals the world, reveals existence, from a certain perspective or point of view. But is there something at the "source" of that point of view? Seemingly not, when you meditate and "get" the Non-Dual understanding. Seemingly it's just the world hanging out there, being itself, albeit a limited portion of the world. But is there anything more mysterious about the limited-portion-ness, the perspectivalness of this, than the perspectivalness of a camera, receiving only a particular tranche of all the light-waves that exist in the world? That's a mechanistic, physicalistic thing too, is it not? It doesn't seem puzzling that a camera has a perspective. So why should it be a puzzle that we moist robots have a perspective?
I can hear the objection "but a camera isn't conscious!" Well, Dennett's answer would be that in the third person sense of "consciousness", functional consciousness, consciousness in terms of the objectively observable schema Perceiver -> Perceived, it's just not complex enough to be conscious in that sense. And while we may admit that no amount of additional complexity could provide us with a rationale or explanation of the mysterious "insider" sense of consciousness that we're looking for, surely we can all admit that complexity does fully explain the public, third-person sense (that, e.g., we all agree a Zombie could have)?
I think the resolution is to be found in the Process Externalism of the Italian philosopher Riccardo Manzotti. In fact Chalmers seems to favour some form of Externalism himself, I just think Manzotti's version is a bit better. The man is definitely onto something, I feel. However, the difficulty with his position is that it requires a slight rejigging of our language and perspective into a process terminology. Dennett isn't quite happy with that (as he showed in his review of Varela and Maturani's book). I doubt most people schooled in the academic perspectives of today would be happy with it. But I think it's probably the way forward, something for the future.
The key to Externalism in general and Manzotti's position in particular, is that the puzzling sense of "consciousness" is puzzling because we're prejudicially limiting our sense of the putative "insider" sense of consciousness to something whose causality resides solely in the brain. That's what makes it seem like there's a peculiar disjunction, a hard line, between "inside" and "outside", and makes it seem like "inside" is something more special and mysterious than the perspective of a mere camera (or a camera with a navigation capability and self/world modelling). If "insider" consciousness is extended through and permeates the world, however, then the puzzle disappears (though in a different way from Dennett's legerdemain would make it disappear). It disappears, in fact, in a way that's congruent with Nonduality. But in a way that would quite satisfy neither the traditionalist mystic (who's so often glued to Consciousness with a big "C" - except some of the Buddhists of course, and some of the early materialist schools of Buddhism may be the closest fit for a Process Externalism-friendly form of Nonduality that's still got a mystical aspect for subjective experience) nor the philosopher steeped in the analytic tradition and way of talking. The former problem is probably just a matter of terminology (ancient jerry-built terminologies versus modern, streamlined, scientific terminologies). Manzotti's process point of view is required to get around the latter problem - but as I said, process thinking is a bit of a hard sell.]]>
In truth, there are political motivations for the LEADERS of the Jihadist movement. However, they are using powerful religious propaganda to motivate their FOLLOWERS, to make many of those FOLLOWERS willing to sacrifice themselves as suicide bombers, etc. There has to be some Great Reward for such a Great Sacrifice and that's where the religious beliefs play such a key role.
However, to the degree the LEADERS wish to continue to live in This World, they do not become suicide bombers themselves. Instead, they only continue to manipulate the masses with religion, ultimately to serve their own accumulation of power. Whatever the leaders' actual beliefs might be, these are all aligned for that end goal; i.e. political/world power.
I would call that the "weakness" that should be "attacked" (per Sun Tzu's "The Art of War"), i.e. the hypocrisy of the "religious" leaders of Jihad. If that hypocrisy were more thoroughly explored and discussed, it might reduce the number of converts, suicide bombers, etc.
So, as is often the case, there is some kernel of truth in both points of view, because they are both acting simultaneously. Almost like seeing a photon as a particle or a wave.
I think it might behoove everyone to start making further distinctions between Jihadist LEADERS and Jihadist FOLLOWERS, because their (actual) beliefs and motivations may be, in fact, quite different.
I welcome everyone's feedback on this.]]>

County should approve Tribute Garden funding
Every nine seconds in the United States, a woman is assaulted or beaten. Every day, more than three women are murdered by their husbands or boyfriends. These are not statistics. They are human beings: someone's daughter, sister, mother; and sometimes, too, someone's brother, son or father. Sadly, it is estimated that only 1 percent of all domestic violence victims come forward and seek help. Sadder still, victims who are murdered by their intimate partners are all too soon forgotten.
The Erie County Commission on the Status of Women is working with its community partners to make sure victims and survivors are not forgotten. Plans are under way to construct a living memorial, a Tribute Garden, located in a tranquil, safe spot in beautiful Isle View Park, along the river in Tonawanda.
This permanent public garden will be a space for peaceful reflection; a place to honor domestic violence victims, survivors and their families.
As importantly, the Tribute Garden will be a permanent, visible reminder to our community that domestic violence is wrong, encouraging victims – as well as witnesses to abuse – to speak up when it occurs. The Tribute Garden also will serve as a place to hold special events for the public to help raise awareness, with the goal to one day forever end the scourge of domestic violence in our community.
Earlier this year, the Commission on the Status of Women held its 4th Annual Break the Cycle Bike-a-Thon and Walk to raise money for the garden. We have raised approximately a third of the funds necessary to make this a reality. The need for this garden is evident. The realization of the garden is near.
Included in Erie County Executive Mark Poloncarz's proposed Erie County budget is $25,000 toward the Tribute Garden. These funds will go a long way toward making the garden a reality. The budget is now in the hands of the County Legislature and we trust they see the wisdom in approving this funding for a very worthy cause.

While the Indianapolis Colts are kicking it in Fort Lauderdale, it looks like the New Orleans Saints have decided to shack up at the Intercontinental Hotel overlooking Biscayne Bay.
The team arrived at the hotel yesterday morning and received quite a surprise. Quarterback Drew Brees and other teammates that had been in town for the NFL Pro Bowl decided to greet the Saints busload of players in bellhop uniforms. Although, they didn't go the full mile and don a bellhop cap. C'mon guys. Even Rihanna did that.
The Saints will be at the hotel through Sunday. Saints fans can try to stalk their faves at the hotel bar but alas, rooms are completely

Some weekends are made for exploring; others seem to be made more for sitting by the fire watching the snow fall. This one is definitely heading in the latter direction, helped no end by the roaring fire and comfy chairs in the friend's house where I'm staying. Am I going soft on you all? I might well be...
Before we declare the spirit of adventure completely dead and buried, though, it's time for a wander out into the snow-covered roads, fields and woods which surround Warsaw's outlying towns.
You know that feeling of when someone seems to be giving a present for all the wrong reasons? That was, I suspect, exactly what the people of Warsaw felt when Josef Stalin gave them the Josef Stalin Palace of Culture and Science (Pałac Kultury i Nauki imienia Józefa Stalina) as a present in 1952. Like with Berlin's Stalinallee, Stalin's name was removed from the building's title in the destalinisation process which followed his death, but the building itself has survived to the present day.
Berlin-Warszawa Express is a very evocative name to me. It conjures up so many more images than, say, EC45, which is this service's other name (there are several trains a day, each with a different number). It seems to evoke a bygone (and possibly non-existent) age when train journeys were full of mystery and adventure.
The baroque palace of Schloss Charlottenburg is an impressive sight at any time of year, but it's particularly atmospheric in the snow. It's snowing quite heavily by the time I arrive, the snowflakes swirling in the lights of the market. It doesn't prove too easy to take a photo, as the fine-flaked snow seems keen to find its way into my camera.
This post refers to the service provided before the takeover of bmi by IAG, and is left here purely for historical interest. Flights to Berlin are no longer available through bmi.
"Cancel the Christmas getaway!" says the headline on the morning's paper. It's a bit late now, though.
I sit at the panoramic window of bmi's Great British lounge, relaxing with a cup of coffee and a bowl of porridge as the sun rises to reveal a grey morning at London Heathrow.
Lurking in the British Pathé archives is an undated clip of an aircraft arriving at the Royal Air Force's Berlin base at Gatow. It taxis, comes to a stop and a figure steps out, Field Marshal Bernard Montgomery, Commander in Chief of the British occupying forces in Germany. On the plane's side, just by the tail, we see the registration: KN628
I promised exciting things and, with a little help from the nice people at bmi, I have exciting things, in the shape of the latest Berlin expedition.
bmi's been flying from London Heathrow to Berlin Tegel since March this year and this time they've invited me to come and sample all the fine things they have to offer, at their expense...how could I refuse?
Like any child, the site's grown throughout the year and, also like any child, it's now eyeing up that big chocolate bear...
Thanks to everyone who's supported the site in the past year. There are plenty of exciting things on the cards for the future, so I hope you all keep watching this space!
Having visited the Müggelturm fairly recently, I was quite excited to see this picture of it by Günter Bittner, as I'd almost forgotten I had it. It appears to be from the 1960s, but the question is exactly when in the 1960s. Looking at the details throws up more questions than it answers.

Wrong ordering by a field in a different table example in new (development ) queryset-api documentation
|Reported by:
|Owned by:
|Triage Stage:
|Has patch:
|Needs documentation:
|Needs tests:
|Patch needs improvement:
|Easy pickings:
The example on ordering a queryset by a field in a different table in the development documentation on queryset-api (http://docs.djangoproject.com/en/dev/ref/models/querysets/#queryset-api) offers the following syntax:
Entry.objects.order_by('blogs_blog.name', 'headline')
preceded by the following explanation: "To order by a field in a different table, add the other table's name and a dot, like so:"
For the following model definitions
from django.db import models class Poll(models.Model): question = models.CharField(max_length=200) pub_date = models.DateTimeField('date published') def __unicode__(self): return self.question class Choice(models.Model): poll = models.ForeignKey(Poll) choices = models.CharField(max_length=200) votes = models.IntegerField() def __unicode__(self): return self.choices
with MySQL, for this retrieval example:
c=Choice.objects.order_by("polls_poll.question",'-votes') list(c)
the result is "OperationalError: (1054, "Unknown column 'polls_poll.question' in 'order clause'" in reply to the following SQL query generated:
SELECT `polls_choice`.`id`, `polls_choice`.`poll_id`, `polls_choice`.`choices`, `polls_choice`.`votes` FROM `polls_choice` ORDER BY `polls_poll`.question ASC, `polls_choice`.`votes` DESC
On the other hand
if one follows the syntax offered in the "mainstream" documentation (http://www.djandoproject.com/db-api), i.e.,
c=Choice.objects.order_by("poll__question",'-votes') list(c)
things do work, with the following SQL query generated:
SELECT `polls_choice`.`id`, `polls_choice`.`poll_id`, `polls_choice`.`choices`, `polls_choice`.`votes` FROM `polls_choice` INNER JOIN `polls_poll` ON (`polls_choice`.`poll_id` = `polls_poll`.`id`) ORDER BY `polls_poll`.`question` ASC, `polls_choice`.`votes` DESC
This problem might be related to the one reported in the accepted ticket #2884 (component: Admin interface), solution for which is said to be deferred until after queryset-refactor.

That was just FOWL! ;-)
Kidding aside, you have a great point, Signe.
When Ariana Huffington was married to a man running for office in California, she famously made a comment to the effect- If animals can't adapt to living near humans, maybe that's God's way of saying we don't need those animals anymore.
I hear she evolved on that issue.
While looking fruitlessly for the date of that quote, one I heard her say to a radio journalist during her husband's campaign, I found similar comments by Rush Limbaugh and others, but almost all were conservative politically.
Each animal may just be an animal and "unimportant" in itself…I would disagree, but for the sake of argument…however, the loss of a species is a catastrophe whose ramifications we may not understand for decades, or even centuries. While I place human life above that of animals, I consider the failure to protect animals and their habitat to be a failure to a community, the generations to come, and, quite frankly, a sin against God, whose first command to Adam was to be take care of all of these He had created.
I know as many atheists who are members of outdoor conservation groups like the Appalachian Trail Conference, the Sierra Club, and even PETA as I do Christians. Why do atheists care more about animals than people whose holy book ORDERS them to take care of animals and their environment?
Hey, go fly to some foreign shore, we don't want no complaining when we can build second and third homes for the wealthy.
Yes, there's that, and the expectation that the world will end any day now so why bother taking care of it.
Geologic Hazards 101-Don't build homes on the beach, don't build homes on barrier islands, don't build homes on flood plains or sides of hills, and don't force me to pay for some "poor" rich guy to rebuild his home because he did build or buy his home and did not buy enough insurance to cover the risks.
Hello Fairportfan2,
I have heard others use that quote in the context you imply. Don't let cynicism weigh too heavily upon you though, there are many who find a more compassionate set of truths in that same book. While looking for a specific verse, I found these two websites and they made me smile. While copy one pertinent verse when so many are available with which to debate those who dominate rather than cultivate.
If you are a person of 'faith', I hope you find these sites comforting. If you're not, I hope it gives you hope there are 'believers' who feel the same sense of humane caring for living things you seem to have. And no punch backs.
At first glance, the physically caused extinction events of the past might seem to have little or nothing to tell us about the current Sixth Extinction, which is a patently human-caused event. For there is little doubt that humans are the direct cause of ecosystem stress and species destruction in the modern world through such activities as:
transformation of the landscape
overexploitation of species
the introduction of alien species
And because Homo sapiens is clearly a species of animal (however behaviorally and ecologically peculiar an animal), the Sixth Extinction would seem to be the first recorded global extinction event that has a biotic, rather than a physical, cause.
So you like to condemn people who have been scammed by the very banks they dealt with? Tell me do you condemn those who have been robbed? Raped? If not then you need consistency in your thinking.
Why some scientists, and myself, want to call this the Anthropocene because humans are making their mark on the world.
barefoot, Sandy was the worst storm to hit NY and NJ in 100+ years. Using your logic, there should be no farming in the old dustbowl areas, ether. Where do you draw the line?
I had to look that up.
The Anthropocene is an informal geologic chronological term that serves to mark the evidence and extent of human activities that have had a significant global impact on the Earth's ecosystems. The term was coined recently by ecologist Eugene F. Stoermer, but has been widely popularized by the Nobel Prize-winning atmospheric chemist, Paul Crutzen, who regards the influence of human behavior on the Earth's atmosphere in recent centuries as so significant as to constitute a new geological epoch for its lithosphere. To date, the term has not been adopted as part of the official nomenclature of the geological field of study.
We've changed the earth? Well duh!
The problem is we seem to be a failed species in that we won't correct our fatal errors. We could be the care takers of the earth but it won't happen under a capitalism that cuts down old growth forests in America to be made into tooth picks in Japan, true story.
We're just gonna breed ourselves until we use up everything in the petri dish and then we will die off.
350 parts per million is what many scientists, climate experts, and progressive national governments are now saying is the safe upper limit for CO2 in our atmosphere.
Current co2 level is 395.55 and rising.
As a scientist, what is your field?
If that's true, then they should not have given building permits to those developers who built those homes on the beach. Down here in Florida, it goes back to the 1920's when it was "fashionable" to have a vacation home down here.
Do you live in a glass house or what?
MEN wrote "the book", the "laws", the "commandments", and wrote themselves control over other humans, and "dominion" over all they wanted to steal, control, or destroy, to benefit themselves, period. While some "philosophies" arguably "religions" display far more wisdom, and caring for the earth, creatures, and fellow man, they aren't in charge of the "ruling class" that has the most weapons, means of destruction, and lack of concern, or ethics towards higher wisdom.
Based on your reply under Mr. Holbert, I've deleted my previous reply to this comment and offer you this one.
Your statement that atheists care less about people is, in my respectful opinion, categorically wrong. There are extremists, religious and atheists, who feel man's abuse of animals and the environment is so egregious as to warrant extreme measures. Spiking trees, breaking into building to free animals, destruction of equipment, etc. These are a dangerous minority, but, in my opinion, outnumbered by the religious and atheistic who place profit over environment, animals, and even humans. The owners of Massey Mines consider themselves Christian yet indulged in practices that killed 29 men in order to keep profits high. I can continue.
Your replies sound more reasonable when you give yourself more time and words to express yourself, Scott. There are few absolutes among groups of humans.
Thank you again for giving me reason to believe you are a neighbor and not just looking for an argument.
What difference do you make?

Skip to comments.The Facts about Mass Shootings - Its time to address mental health and gun-free zones.
Posted on 12/16/2012 6:52:11 PM PST by neverdem
A few things you won't hear about from the saturation coverage of the Newtown, Conn., school massacre:
Mass shootings are no more common than they have been in past decades, despite the impression given by the media.
In fact, the high point for mass killings in the U.S. was 1929, according to criminologist Grant Duwe of the Minnesota Department of Corrections.
Incidents of mass murder in the U.S. declined from 42 in the 1990s to 26 in the first decade of this century.
The chances of being killed in a mass shooting are about what they are for being struck by lightning.
Until the Newtown horror, the three worst K–12 school shootings ever had taken place in either Britain or Germany.
Almost all of the public-policy discussion about Newtown has focused on a debate over the need for more gun control. In reality, gun control in a country that already has 200 million privately owned firearms is likely to do little to keep weapons out of the hands of criminals. We would be better off debating two taboo subjects — the laws that make it difficult to control people with mental illness and the growing body of evidence that "gun-free" zones, which ban the carrying of firearms by law-abiding individuals, don't work.
First, the mental-health issue. A lengthy study by Mother Jones magazine found that at least 38 of the 61 mass shooters in the past three decades "displayed signs of mental health problems prior to the killings." New York Times columnist David Brooks and Cornell Law School professor William Jacobsen have both suggested that the ACLU-inspired laws that make it so difficult to intervene and identify potentially dangerous people should be loosened. "Will we address mental-health and educational-privacy laws, which instill fear of legal liability for reporting potentially violent mentally ill people to law enforcement?" asks Professor Jacobsen. "I doubt it."
Gun-free zones have been the most popular response to previous mass killings. But many law-enforcement officials say they are actually counterproductive. "Guns are already banned in schools. That is why the shootings happen in schools. A school is a 'helpless-victim zone,'" says Richard Mack, a former Arizona sheriff. "Preventing any adult at a school from having access to a firearm eliminates any chance the killer can be stopped in time to prevent a rampage," Jim Kouri, the public-information officer of the National Association of Chiefs of Police, told me earlier this year at the time of the Aurora, Colo., Batman-movie shooting. Indeed, there have been many instances — from the high-school shooting by Luke Woodham in Mississippi, to the New Life Church shooting in Colorado Springs, Colo. — where a killer has been stopped after someone got a gun from a parked car or elsewhere and confronted the shooter.
Economists John Lott and William Landes conducted a groundbreaking study in 1999, and found that a common theme of mass shootings is that they occur in places where guns are banned and killers know everyone will be unarmed, such as shopping malls and schools.
I spoke with Lott after the Newtown shooting, and he confirmed that nothing has changed to alter his findings. He noted that the Aurora shooter, who killed twelve people earlier this year, had a choice of seven movie theaters that were showing the Batman movie he was obsessed with. All were within a 20-minute drive of his home. The Cinemark Theater the killer ultimately chose wasn't the closest, but it was the only one that posted signs saying it banned concealed handguns carried by law-abiding individuals. All of the other theaters allowed the approximately 4 percent of Colorado adults who have a concealed-handgun permit to enter with their weapons.
"Disarming law-abiding citizens leaves them as sitting ducks," Lott told me. "A couple hundred people were in the Cinemark Theater when the killer arrived. There is an extremely high probability that one or more of them would have had a legal concealed handgun with him if they had not been banned."
Lott offers a final damning statistic: "With just one single exception, the attack on congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in Tucson in 2011, every public shooting since at least 1950 in the U.S. in which more than three people have been killed has taken place where citizens are not allowed to carry guns."
There is no evidence that private holders of concealed-carry permits (which are either easy to obtain or not even required in more than 40 states) are any more irresponsible with firearms than the police. According to a 2005 to 2007 study by researchers at the University of Wisconsin and Bowling Green State University, police nationwide were convicted of firearms violations at least at a 0.002 percent annual rate. That's about the same rate as holders of carry permits in the states with "shall issue" laws.
Despite all of this evidence, the magical thinking behind gun-free zones is unlikely to be questioned in the wake of the Newtown killings. Having such zones gives people a false sense of security, and woe to the politician or business owner who now suggests that a "gun-free zone" revert back to what critics would characterize as "a wild, wild West" status. Indeed, shortly after the Cinemark attack in Colorado, the manager of the nearby Northfield Theaters changed its policy and began banning concealed handguns.
In all of the fevered commentary over the Newtown killings, you will hear little discussion of the fact that we may be making our families and neighbors less safe by expanding the places where guns aren't allowed. But that is precisely what we may be doing. Both criminals and the criminally insane have shown time and time again that those laws are the least of the problem,s they face as they carry out their evil deeds.

We need 'Mental'-Free-Zones
or maybe more appropriately —'Meds'-Free-Zones
Big-Pharma has some explaining to do....
When does it get blamed on AGW?
I'd like LEFTIST FREE Zones.....that would solve a multitude of problems!
More signs of the times.
It will probably be put on GWB's feet first.
I like the idea of Leftist-Free States. I will move to one as soon as one is available.
From Busch Gardens website:
Personal Item Policy
For your safety, the following items are not permitted inside Busch Gardens: glass containers, chairs, firearms, knives, pointed scissors, pepper sprays, eating utensils, clothing with offensive language, wallet chains, and flammable liquids.
SHOUT IT!!! Everywhere.
It is still morally offensive to me that only cops can carry guns to protect themselves.
Thanks for the link!
I once tried a thought experiment to imagine one aspect of life that would not improve if all the leftists magically disappeared for good. I came up empty. I think they're some kind of Biblical plague.
That's sounding better and better all the time.
How about we do something about the Zombies,the schools are putting out relying on drugs to control their classroom.
Just click "Report Abuse" on your own post and ask the Mod to remove it. I don't know if that always works, but it worked once for me.
Thanks - never tried that — if I get banned I'll know better
As more facts trickle in regarding this latest school shooting, we are finding that it perhaps wasn't quite as out-of-the-blue as the media would like to portray it. The kid had problems, the mom had lots of guns laying around evidently not properly secured, and there were incidents where she reportedly feared her own child. Yet just like the Zimmerman/Martin case, captain Zero needs to rush right in there with his pre-planned agenda that just needed "an incident" to put into motion.
There is an article posted here that says he was on Fanapt, a schizophrenia drug. I found it buried in the article and posted about it in the thread.
Psychiatric side effects including restlessness, aggression, and delusion have been reported frequently. Hostility, decreased libido, paranoia, anorgasmia, confusional state, mania, catatonia, mood swings, panic attack, obsessive-compulsive disorder, bulimia nervosa, delirium, polydipsia psychogenic, impulse-control disorder, and major depression have been reported infrequently."
But other than that, it's completely safe.
It's not the meds, it's the illness. My son in law's brother is schizophrenic and refuses to take his meds. He is threatening to kill his mother because she had the father removed from life support on Saturday. He died early this morning and now they are looking into having the brother involuntarily committed, but that just isn't that easy to do, even though nurses and social workers have witnessed his behavior.
The doctors say that the brother's schizophrenia is the result of heavy early drug use, mostly just marijuana. The man is 52 years old now, 17 years older than my son-in-law.
When are we going to place the blame on the perp?
"With just one single exception, the attack on congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in Tucson in 2011, every public shooting since at least 1950 in the U.S. in which more than three people have been killed has taken place where citizens are not allowed to carry guns."
My first thought was the University of Texas clock tower massacre in 1966.
I have a vivid recollection of a dozen frat boys pouring suppression fire on Charles Whitman with their hunting rifles.
The death toll was 13 dead, 32 wounded, and probably would have been much worse if Whitman had the time to carefully select and aim at his targets.
There are at least two exceptions.
Please see my Comment #26.
"There is an article posted here that says he was on Fanapt, a schizophrenia drug. I found it buried in the article and posted about it in the thread."
Neither link mentioned fanapt when I tried to find it.
For later reading
U T was a gun free zone at the time, albeit being in Texas, many otherwising law abiding students ignored that. And probably saved many lives by doing so...
I'd like to know if the father gave a shit about this kid's behavior.
>> When are we going to place the blame on the perp?
If the perp was a documented sociopath, then maybe the blame needs to be "redistributed".
SSRI's given to the wrong person can be as potent as LSD. It's not boogieman junk science it's stone cold fact. I've seen it happen to my wife. Her life was a living hell for 5 days. The doctors did not PDR the SSRI's for adverse reaction. That reaction has a clinical name of Serotonin Syndrome. I am also among the group of people who can not take antidepressants.
The media screams blood murder about Benzo class medications like Valium, Xanax, etc. I doubt there has been one mass shooter on Benzo's alone. Doctors use SSRI's to treat anxiety. The problem is anxiety can simply be a secondary condition caused by neurological damage. Unless a doctor does an extensive medical history such anxiety causing issues as Vestibular and Optical Sensory Processing Disorders can go undetected. SSRI's do two things to such patients. The bring on more anxiety by bombarding the damaged sensory processing system with more sensory impulses. Patients with these type of issues are more prone to Serotonin Syndrome.
If you mention the term Serotonin Syndrome to most doctors they will say whats that? I told my wifes doctor {house doctor not our own} she had it and showed him the alert written by HIS Hospitals Pharmacology Professor. He told me that it was pure rubbish at first till I said do you know the person who wrote it then? This was at a university hospital.
Six doctors and two shrinks did not know what they were seeing. Yet SSRI's are given out like candy even to teens. In the meantime the media goes bonkers after Benzo usage because some Hollywood Morons booze up and do Benzo's and end up dead. Well Duh!
My wifes used Xanax daily for 27 years and I have for over 17 years safely and effectivly. Proper dosage and consistent in blood stream dosage means everything. The fact she was taking Xanax while taking Zoloft likely saved her life as Benzo's are the protocol drugs used to stop Serotonin Syndrome. It takes weeks for antidepressants to leave the bloodstream just as it takes weeks to build up but at any point in that time and after Serotonin Migration from stomach to brain can occur. Benzo's bloodstream life where it can have any effect is 12 hours tops closer to 8.
I don't discount or scoff at the good antidepressants do for many patients. However the general widespread ignorance of the potential adverse reactions by those in the medical field even mental health is astounding and down right frightening.
My wife is a quadriplegic with fair use of her arms and hands. She thrashed and literally beat herself black and blue while it happened. Even after taking her off all Meds and having her return too normal mental state and then again giving her Zoloft and it started up again in an hours time they still didn't catch on.
Reportedly the father went the second mile when agreeing to his divorce settlement . . . and is now remarried. But the two boys found the divorce very painful. Who knows why the divorce went down? That doesnt seem to arouse any interest in journalists. Not like the guy was running against Obama, or anything like that . . .
Re-read your post.....it IS the MEDS....the ones they prescribe today and the ones the kills got illegally!!
Another contributor to the high body counts is the insane policy of school lockdowns.
Lockdowns are reasonable if the threat is outside the building and the chance of entering using force is minimal.
However, once inside the building, a lockdown just creates a barrel full of fish waiting to be executed.
We have seen this over and over and over again, but school security does not change lockdowns to escape.

Wow, that has been pulled too.
I saved the Sun UK page I linked you to in the other thread. FReepmail me an email if you want it, and I'll zip it up and email it to you, if you like.
As of right now, if you Google Jonathan Lanza, it still shows the Sun article that has been pulled.
Are you still killing your unborn?
I think the media and its 24-7 coverage of such things gives potential mass murderers that they will achieve some sort of sick fame as a result of their actions. Time for the media to quit the 24-7 breast-beating coverage.
Great article.
U.S. Murders: All 13,636; Hands and Feet 801; Assault Rifles: less than 348
I say ban high capacity gun-free zones.
(something happened with the "Uncle" statement that wasn't?)
Definitely related.
So "Uncle Jonathan Lanza" may be a fake.
I wonder if the reporters bothered to ask for an ID? If someone was presenting themselves as a close relative in a case like this, I'd want to see two forms of ID, say a picture drivers license and a major credit card with the same name.
From the message board link above- the page before has someone tagging the "Uncle" being Jonathan Lee Riches. Looks like the articles all got scrubbed when it was outed....
I've seen a statement from the CT police saying anyone presenting false information would be prosecuted. Probably only applies to statements to authorities, not lying to the press as this appears to be.
Ping since you were on the other thread where we were talking about this. It appears that "uncle Jonathan Lanza" is a scammer.

An average of 10 kids in Chicago are killed every weekend in Chicago-—Obama's 'home town'.
Someone enlighten me about how many appearances Obama has made such as last night in Connecticut.
I don't remember a single appearance.
As usual, Obama also shed crocodile tears—from the upper part of his eye, where no tears form—and when he 'wiped' his left eye—he used his middle finger-—AGAIN.
