OCEAN CITY – Citing several earlier failed attempts at a favorable result at various different levels, the town of Ocean City last week filed a motion to dismiss a lawsuit filed last month in federal court by a long-time Ocean City Police Department member, asserting his need to find time to eat on the job because of his diabetes resulted in his wrongful termination in July 2007 in violation of his Americans with Disabilities (ADA) rights.
Former OCPD officer David Catrino, through his attorney Robin Cockey, in March filed suit in U.S. District Court seeking injunctive relief and an undisclosed award of compensatory and punitive damages against the town for wrongly denying him a reasonable accommodation to which he believes he was entitled under the ADA. In short, Catrino, who has diabetes, alleges he was dismissed in July 2007 when he left his post to go home and eat shortly before his scheduled shift was set to expire.
According to the complaint, Catrino continued to work with the requested accommodation without incident until July 21, 2007, when his supervisor, Corporal Albert Custer, "knowingly required him, under Mr. Catrino's protestations, to continue to work in a non-emergency situation without food." Essentially, the case, which has been heard on several levels already, each time going against Catrino, boils down to a determination of whether the former officer voluntarily resigned when he left his position early, or whether the town wrongfully terminated Catrino in violation of his ADA rights.
In either circumstance, the case revolves in part around an alleged conversation Catrino had with Custer prior to his termination, in what appears to be a "he said, he said" situation. Catrino first presented his case in front of a neutral arbitrator as part of the collective bargaining agreement between the Fraternal Order of Police (FOP) and the town. According to the town's motion to dismiss the federal lawsuit, it was during that arbitration hearing that it came to light Catrino made comments suggesting he voluntarily resigned his position, over a separate internal investigation and not because of his medical condition.
During the arbitration hearing, Ocean City introduced testimony from Catrino's supervisor, Custer, that on July 21, Catrino, after a visit to headquarters regarding an internal investigation was "very, very mad," and that Catrino told him "I've had it, I quit. I'm leaving."
However, after the arbitrator ruled against Catrino and in favor of the town, the former officer filed a civil suit in Worcester County Circuit Court in an attempt to reverse the decision. During that action, Catrino denied having said, "I've had it. I quit. I'm leaving," instead alleging he said, "I ought to quit," and that he had permission to end his work shift early to get something to eat and tend to his diabetes.
Whether Catrino actually quit or said he ought to quit is a key component of any subsequent action, but the town contends the federal suit filed last month claiming ADA violations is moot because his case has been heard, and denied, at several appropriate levels already.
The Circuit Court reviewed the arbitrator's interpretation of the collective bargaining agreement and issued a judgment against the former officer and confirmed the arbitrator's decision. Currently, the former officer is appealing that judgment to the Court of Special Appeals in a case that is on a parallel course to the federal suit he filed last month.
"This case is plaintiff David Catrino's fifth attempt and second set of counsel asserting Ocean City's determination that he voluntarily quit his position as a police officer was wrong," the formal answer reads. "The key question in this case is whether Catrino resigned voluntarily by leaving his post, or, as he asserts, whether Ocean City discharged him."

It took me about 5 minutes to make and cost less than $5.
- Clear plastic ball ornament
- Epsom salts
- Small figurines (I used buttons)
- Card stock paper
- Ribbon
- Remove the top of the ornament, and place your figurines in the ornament.
- Fill the ornament with epsom salt, leaving about a 1/2 inch of room on the top of the ornament.
- Using a hot glue gun, ring the top of the ornament with glue and put the top back on, pressing on the top to make sure the glue holds.
- Make a tag listing the items in your ornament and attach to the ornament with a ribbon.
Alright, here are a few mistakes I made. This ornament is too heavy to actually hang on a tree, but it is still a fun Christmas game. I thought I'd try making it lighter by using styrofoam fake snow from the craft store. The styrofoam was full of static and would cling to the figurines, making it impossible to get them uncovered and found.
Sorry for the long delay in posts. I hope to start posting regularly again!

It began with a missing Audi. One morning, nearly two decades ago, reporter Misha Glenny went out to the parking lot of his Zagreb hotel and found his new car had skipped town. Skipped the country, actually: a casualty of "Europe's fastest-growing industry," car theft.
Mr. Glenny collected the insurance money. Some weeks later, his Audi turned up 200 miles away, in a market in western Herzegovina. Slowly, the veteran BBC correspondent began to see his small car as part of a much larger, bloodier, and more important story.
During the Yugoslav wars of the 1990s, a lucrative smuggling operation united combatants on both sides of the conflict to move great quantities of autos, cigarettes, women, and girls to the streets and brothels of Western Europe. In the past 20 years, with the collapse of the Soviet Union and the deregulation of financial markets, such local and regional networks have exploded into a worldwide criminal fraternity that continues to grow in scope and might.
Glenny's sprawling, ambitious McMafia: A Journey Through the Global Criminal Underworld tracks major players in this transnational brotherhood across five continents. Profit – not national, religious, or ethnic identity – governs their complex alliances. From Moscow to Spokane, Lagos to Tokyo, today's globalized, organized crime is as pervasive, entrepreneurial, and "every bit as cosmopolitan as Shell, Nike, or McDonald's." The "shadow economy" it governs – tax dodges, human trafficking, and, most profitably, oil, arms, drug, and diamond dealing – now accounts for a staggering 15 to 20 percent of global turnover. What's more, Glenny writes, "this shadow world is by no means distinct from its partner in the light."
To map it, Glenny embarked on a reporting odyssey: smuggling Kazakh caviar, learning the secrets of Canadian pot smugglers, scoping out Tel Aviv brothels, and sharing a memorable afternoon tea with one of Bombay's most notorious hit-men. The result is a smart, outraged, and vividly described whirlwind tour of criminal conspiracy.
The leaps of geography and logic in "McMafia" can be hard to follow. But its thesis is clear, compelling, and scary: the West may have declared war on terrorism, but organized crime is by far the more serious threat to our world today, and one we ignore at our peril.
That threat is both physical (scattered across the globe, the former Soviet nuclear arsenal poses perhaps a greater threat now than it did at the height of the cold war) and virtual (for the tech-savvy, cybercrime is a lucrative new world of criminal possibility).
On the ground in El Salvador, and other failed states recently engulfed by violence, the proximate threat is "testosterone-driven young men who are suddenly unemployed but have grown accustomed to their omnipotence."
Likewise in post-Soviet economies, where countless operatives lost their jobs: "secret police, counterintelligence officers, Special Forces commandos, and border guards, as well as homicide detectives and traffic cops. Their skills included surveillance, smuggling, killing people, establishing networks, and blackmail" – and only organized crime was hiring.
For women in today's struggling states, the threat is more intimate: kidnapping and sexual exploitation, often facilitated by friends or relatives. In the cold language of the global marketplace, women forced into prostitution are often "an entry-level commodity" for criminals, because "the initial outlay is a fraction of the sum required to engage in car theft" and "they can cross borders legally and do not attract the attention of sniffer dogs."
Glenny reserves his most undisguised contempt for their tormentors.
He has no love, either, for the Russian oligarchs – with their ludicrous Soviet-nostalgia parties, complete with toiling peasants – who have pillaged the country's mineral resources and laundered billions beyond its borders while the majority of the populace struggles to eke out a living. Neither does he spare any patience for the rapacious Western appetites so much of today's illegal trafficking aims to satisfy.
But certain criminals, Glenny writes, make good points: the Nigerian e-mail scammers who see robbing greedy, gullible Westerners as payback for an ugly colonial legacy, or the Chinese snakeheads who bring a needed, albeit illegal, labor force to shrinking European economies. What's more, in cities like Odessa, enlightened criminal leaders have helped to maintain order in the face of political and economic catastrophe.
For all these reasons, policing global crime is an unprecedented challenge. The most urgent need, Glenny says, is for greater regulation of financial markets, because "the deeper the involvement of shadow funds with the licit money markets, the harder it becomes to follow the cash that is the key to the successful policing of international organized crime."
Meantime, like their elicit counterparts, many criminals see their future in outsourcing to China.
Although his story becomes increasingly disjointed as it progresses, Glenny's journey through the international underworld is, on the whole, a rich and illuminating one. The problem of crime in a globalizing world may have no quick fix – but in "McMafia," it has quite a strong introduction.

Tomorrow is International Astrology Day!
Considered by many to be the start of the astrological new year, International Astrology Day is celebrated each year on the Spring Equinox (the day the Sun enters Aries). There are various observances around the world, including lectures and other events.
Anyone have any plans to celebrate this observance?

apply oneself(redirected from apply yourself)
apply oneself
To try hard or concentrate one's abilities (toward something). Without the preposition "to," it refers to a concentrated effort in general. I know you think you won't be able to understand this level of math, but you just need to apply yourself, and you'll find success. If we apply ourselves to the problem, we'll find a solution eventually.

"Last year, we began a partnership with Averett University (for GUM), Growing Up Musically program, that enriched our students' musical knowledge and experience," said Head Start education director Jion Word.
Part of that enrichment includes incorporating music in different subjects.
"I have seen a great impact on their learning through music. They use music now to learn letters," Word said.
The program is funded by a donation from local residents Ben and Betty Davenport.
The donation pays for Averett assistant music professor Dr. Janet Phillips to work with students in the Head Start program using a curriculum developed from programming from Averett's music department.
"There's more and more research showing that music helps us learn, retain, even grow our brains," Phillips explained.
Averett education majors also work with the students and help teach other educators how to implement the program.

VSC+ helps to maintain stability and prevent skidding when turning sharply or cornering on slippery surfaces. Whenever the start of a skid is detected, it automatically activates individual brakes and controls engine output. In addition, it applies steering assistance to make it easier to get back on course.
In emergency braking situations, EBS flashes the vehicle's brake lights repeatedly to alert following traffic.
ABS prevents the wheels from locking while braking. EBD complements this by optimising brake force distribution between wheels to compensate for different loads. Together the two systems help you to maintain steering control when braking heavily.
If you attempt an emergency stop, BA will detect this and apply additional brake pressure. This enables ABS to work to its maximum potential.
HAC helps to ensure a smooth start on steep inclines by applying the brakes for up to 2 seconds after the brake pedal is released. This prevents the vehicle from rolling back. It is activated by pushing the brake pedal harder after stopping as long as the transmission shift lever is in any forward gear position.
The system features a sensor valve within each wheel to constantly monitor tyre air pressure. These sensors link with a dashboard indicator that illuminates to warn you if the pressure falls below the recommended level. By doing so, the system contributes to safer driving, better tyre wear and greater fuel efficiency.

Man, I do like to ramble in January. By that I mean, each January I end up just sitting down at the computer and writing the February newsletter without any idea where I might go with it or what I might say in it. Forget developing one thought, I've got several to talk about. The first of each year is always good for thinking about the past, the present, and the future. I'll give you the condensed version.
I've been thinking about what's happened over the past years of my "born-again" experience and what I've come to appreciate over that time span. I'm not talking about a religious doctrine or formula; it's more of an observation of God in the earth rather than a definite way to "do" the Gospel.
First, I like what Rich Mullins said once referring to Christians being too hard on one another, about the differences we might find in comparing each of our beliefs. His statement can be summarized in just a few words, "(if we were honest with each other)…We're all just guessing anyway." Put any two believers in a room and you'll have a room with two people that are wrong about something in the Gospel. I know we're trying, but none of us is "perfectly correct." So we can relax a little with one another, enjoy our common beliefs. I've learned, especially while being involved at WBVN, to respect our differences more. For many of us, I'm not so sure they're really differences as much as they're just different ways of seeing the same thing. But we're seeing it differently because we're standing in a different place than the other person is standing. Standing and looking at the mountain from the East side or standing an observing it on the West gives two completely different descriptions but it's still the same mountain.
I've learned a lot about my feelings over time. I value so many 'little things' that occur each day. Value them more than I openly express most the time. However, I observe many more "tender-hearted" moments than I mention to people around me. If I would open up more I think it would be easier for people to see how much I value the variations found in this life. I've found value in the sad experiences and in the good ones as well. I really like the good days, but I've learned to appreciate the emotional and spiritual experience of either. I've mentioned before, the day that my father died was the most terrible day in my life and one of the most precious at the same time. The loss was terrible, but the comfort and sense of the presence of God was overwhelming at the very same moment. Now I prefer the good days rather the sad ones, but I still have discovered a way to find "life" in both. What a great creature we are! God has put together complications and wonders by combining three in one: body, soul and spirit. The good days are enjoyable; in the other days, our strengths are revealed to us.
Here's another ramble. I've noticed how much the President and Congress are given authority in our lives, 'space that they've been given to influence our lives' if you will. I mean it's huge. So much of what we do and what happens to us is directly under their influence. Comparatively, in each in our lives we've been given "a certain amount of space" as well. Most of us don't have a very big space of influence: our immediate and extended family perhaps, the people we work with or go to church with, possibly people we've met over the years and that have become friends or acquaintances. For most of us it's not much bigger than that. But, I've discovered that that small amount of "space" can still be important in the Kingdom of God. If each of us would just "make a difference" in those small places for the Gospel it could make a real difference. For our listening friends during the 16 years that WBVN has been on the air, I think we've been an "encourager." I can live with the idea that WBVN may not be profound but that we've helped people that listen in some small way. For each of us, just leaving the "space where we're influential" a little better off than how we found it is something all of us should seek to do.
If I were to give our girls any single advice about their purpose in life, I think I would sum it up much like that. Being ambassadors of Christ, did you leave the people and places you were involved with better off than if you had not been involved with them at all? It's a small accomplishment in comparison to the President or Congress, but I think it's just as important in the "Gospel" sense. You might not change the world but you can make a difference in "your space." Simply, were you a giver or were you a consumer of the environment you lived in? Did you only take things out of your environment or did you leave it something.
My last ramble, I think. Sixteen years working at WBVN is the longest span of time that I've ever been in one place. I think that's because of the opportunity to make that "little space" a better place. Our purpose is to use the Spirit of God found in the hymns and psalms we play to create an atmosphere in believer's lives that's more enjoyable and more pleasant because we were there with them; not earth shattering, but with value just the same.
I don't know much about the future. God does know the future and we're just finding out about it as we go along. I remember telling people, "the Father has already lived this out once in His heart." He knows the beginning and the ending. As we go along, we're discovering what we're going to do about Him; He already knows what we will do about Him." That makes it (as Steven Curtis Chapman once sang) a "Great Adventure."
I can't say that I've ever met a prophet but I've been in the middle of what I would call the spirit of prophecy. It's never been an environment where someone knew, knew without a doubt, the future; but occasionally and rarely, I've been around expressions of encouragement and confirmation for other believers. At WBVN, we've had many "wonderful" expressions of faith given to us over the years, encouragements that have carried us along from one event to the next. We never knew the future, but just the simple encouragement of our faith made a big difference in our lives. We hope WBVN has been that type of encouragement in your life as well.
This ministry has seen the "unbelievable" happen to it and seen some tragic things as well. We've stood on dusty ground and stood on ground that's "over-flowing" with the green gardens of life. This past year, we watched as our giving totals were not at the levels of the year before (down about 17%). The total number of gifts received was nearly the same however; the amount that people could give was smaller in 2005. But you know, we made the budget needs of this ministry. Each bill was paid and year-end contract obligations were satisfied. We did that in a year in which we had increases almost in every monthly expense for this ministry. That's part of that discovery I mentioned earlier. I don't have a doctrine of how that works; I'm just sure that it does.
God has taken such good care! It's never been predicable where our funding would come from or how much we would need from year to year. We had three years in a row (2001-2003) that we lost revenue on the concerts in each one of those years. This past year, the concerts helped make up the difference in the short fall of our gifts. We did that with the lowest ticket prices in the country for some of the most popular groups in the country. We're just left simply to believe in God! Occasionally, Jane and I are asked questions about the future of this station or sometimes about the future of our own lives. We always reply that the same God that provided for us at 40 years old is just as capable at holding us up at 80 years old.
Your graciousness to the ministry doesn't go unnoticed. The kindnesses have always been there, but more and more the "fellowship," the oneness with our listeners, is manifested. I'm convinced that that "one accord" is significance to us all. It manifests in some of the concerts. There, a thousand people from many denominations, are all worshiping and being of a single fellowship. It's not complete in all that it could be, but it goes a long way in bringing us together with a single purpose of praising God. I really believe we're the better for having gotten together. I know we are for having the experience of meeting so many of you. Each day WBVN shares into each listener's heart through the music heard commonly between us all. I can't measure that blessing. However, I do believe the environment is better with us here than without us here. I hope you agree and join with us for the 2006th year of celebrating the most glorious life that was ever lived: Christ Jesus.

Harris puts P25 PTT on smartphones, tablets, and other devices
The BeOn app is available now for devices operating on Android, iOS, and Microsoft Windows
During IACP 2013 last year, I came across Motorola's new Unified PTT, which puts P25 LMR signal into your LTE-enabled smartphone. At the time, I'd never before seen such a capability demonstrated, and thought it to be pretty groundbreaking technology (it is quite cool, trust me).
But Don Rumsfeld was right when he famously said that we don't know what we don't know. I returned home from Philadelphia to discover a note from the PR folks for Harris Corporation.
Turns out, Harris has been providing P25 LMR PTT to for a few years. Harris' BeOn app/service is available for devices operating on Android, iOS, and Microsoft Windows, and runs on broadband networks from 3G and 4G commercial cellular to muni WiFi and/or dedicated public safety LTE.
Bridging Gaps with Apps
Launched in 2010, the Harris BeOn solution delivers full Push-to-Talk (PTT) to any smartphone, tablet, or PC operating on a broadband network anywhere in the world where one (or more) of those abovementioned data services is available.
David Simon, Project Manager for BeOn at Harris told me that the company had recognizing very early on the massive potential represented by the convergence of traditional land mobile radio (LMR) radio systems and the promise of LTE.
"While LMR is the proven technology for first responder communications, radio coverage is inherently limited by geographic coverage area," Simon told me.
Designed collaboratively by Harris' LMR and LTE divisions, BeOn bridges any such gaps.
"BeOn is designed from the ground up to turn your smartphone into a P25 radio," Simon explained.
According to Simon, the BeOn app is first professional push-to-talk (PTT) solution for first responders to enable enterprises to "have managed group communications anywhere in the world."
With an emphasis on providing constant connectivity for senior leadership — regardless of their physical location — the combination of LMR and LTE PTT applications provides tremendous connectivity capabilities enabling command staff and other critical team members to participate in incident communications or monitor situations even outside of their traditional radio service area.
There are numerous public safety agencies across the Untied States already using BeOn with this capability as a top-of-mind benefit. One such customer is Montgomery County (Texas) Hospital District — a bit of a misnomer, because the organization no longer owns the Hospital, but does operate the public service radio system for police, fire, and EMS, across 1100 square miles of Montgomery County.
"One of the primary drivers for BeOn adoption in Montgomery County was the ability for administrators — who often find themselves outside of the radio coverage area, to be able to respond to incidents regardless of their location" said Justin Evans, the Radio System Manager at Montgomery County Hospital.
"BeOn is currently used by Administrators to maintain radio coverage while they are out of radio system range," Evans added.
Evans said also that while current adoption is "significant and impactful, using mostly 4G service and Samsung G4S phones," the now iOS standardized county has big plans for BeOn in early 2014, now that the application is available to potentially all of its employees using the iPhone and iPad.
Technical Stuff
In addition to traditional P25 radio features, BeOn also enables presence, geolocation, and situational awareness features. When used in conjunction with a Harris radio system, BeOn can show the location of both BeOn devices as well as GPS-equipped LMR units.
Built on the Harris VIDA network, BeOn provides a connection between existing P25 radio systems and other IP networks— it is, according to Simon, the "first application to support managed group and push-to-talk communications utilizing most consumer smartphones."
"The core feature set mimics the P25 standard. Unlike other generic cellular PTT applications, BeOn contains the industry-standard P25 vocoder, which improves voice quality when communicating with P25 land mobile radios, significantly enhances PTT speed, and enables end to end encryption between BeOn smartphones and radios."
The application consists of a server with its own firewall that is linked directly into the radio backbone on one side, and the IP network on the other.
According to Harris, each BeOn server can handle up to 5,000 users and recognizes logical talkgroups established in the digital radio system, allowing designated users to communicate over managed channels much like a traditional digital radio.
BeOn equipped smartphones user IDs, talkgroup permissions, and whatnot are administered from the same user interface as radios "making administration far simpler than other solutions which require manual synchronization of databases," said Simon.
There in Texas
There are numerous use cases for BeOn in the Montgomery County Hospital District, particularly related to BeOn's mapping features. Mapping has tremendous potential for incident commanders who now have the ability to track the location of their officers from a command vehicle during an incident.
Major advantages are offered by not only mapping BeOn users, but the ability to map an officer's location via land mobile radio. The ability to integrate geo-tracking with PTT from PCs and phones provides real advantages in terms of response efficiency and safety.
There are discussions taking place in Montgomery County to equip certain undercover officers with BeOn. You're not going to do UC work with a traditional radio on your hip, but having a Bluetooth-connected mic/earbuds and a mobile phone in your pocket is certainly a conceivable option.
Beyond continuing expansion among public safety administrators and certain UC officers, Montgomery County has other big plans for BeOn.
"Mapping functionality opens up a huge opportunity for charge nurses in the hospitals, so that using the application they can actually track and see when a transport unit is getting close to the hospital," Evans told me. "BeOn for tow trucks has also been discussed. Today the trucks have scanners to help them find and respond to accidents. For volunteer and part-time firefighters, being able to communicate when they don't have a radio is imperative," Evans said.
"For me, as radio system administrator, BeOn has already been a huge time saver, to provide a means to respond to any complaints when I am outside of the LMR coverage footprint... BeOn works very well. PTT speed, audio quality, and access time are all great!" Evans concluded.

- As the character's attire appears to be the standard Konohagakure flak jacket and that he also demonstrates the same pupil-less representation of the Byakugan that the other clan members do, it seems evident that he is a Hyūga but outside of that he has no other distinctive marks, so currently it looks like his identity will remain unknown.

I'll stand my ground and play devil's advocate just because there are so many different forms of pro-religious arrogance, and most of them have to be wrong just because most of them disagree with each other. I see SCAM written all over their peer-pressured beliefs and proclamations, when the general rule is that it's okay to believe in anything no matter how much suspension of critical thinking's required.
But I do agree with what (I think) you are saying about the importance of open dialog. Especially if that's the best way to debug the groupthink (on either side). Healthy skepticism should be the rule, no matter what one believes in.
Could not I be wrong about the giant purple spider living on Jupiter? Unicorns? Goblins? To give such credibility to these possibilities is absurd. The chances that we're wrong about these things are so small as to render them irrelevant. The same goes for the Abrahamic bat-shit god. So, to say 'we could be wrong' is not a good argument.
If you take a standpoint that everything not specifically disproven therefore has the possibility of existence and requires special recognition of such, you're going to lead a dull life. However, going the short route and dealing only with positive evidence makes things a damn sight easier, and surprisingly, is the default position virtually everyone follows constantly.
I'll be the first to admit I'm ignorant of many things.
But when I sat down to coffee the other day and began a theological discussion with a gentleman he told me he would kill all the gays if he could since the bible says homosexuality is a sin. WHAT! I just shook my head, wanted to bash my coffee cup over his head but that would lead to trouble. How ignorant can you be to make that statement when murder is a sin, maybe gays don't count, I don't get it, but it makes perfect sense in his disturbed mind.
When you have people like that who are allowed to vote and shape this society, how can you pretend to understand their side? It's all a numbers game and they outnumber us for the time being. I don't want it to be us vs. them but that's the way it is. I'd like to see this world change for the better, but I know I won't see it in my lifetime.
I don't go crazy when I hear someone say God bless America, you see it every damn day on TV with the Joplin, MO tornado and today for memorial day with all the ceremonies. I just get sick of seeing it and hearing it.
Anyway those are my ramblings on the subject, I could probably go on for a while if I wanted to.
I find it ignorant to imply that religious people 'just need false hopes'. It's also disturbingly condescending.
Religion is harmful , so their 'point of view' matters not to me.
There is also no possibility that we are wrong because the bible is contradictory and the concept of the Abrahamic God , Yahweh , is logically contradictory. So there is a 0% chance 'most' Christians are correct.
I only say most because I suppose at least one Christian doesn't think God is omni omni omni omni everything.
It is also ignorant to imply Atheists do not 'understand how they think'. We understand perfectly well how they think. Understanding Christianity and how Christians think is partly the reason most of us BECAME Atheist.
This accommodationist attitude really get's to me. I prefer not to play nice when a Bully is in my face.
I think peer pressure's a bigger reason people believe. As far as evolution goes, human culture evolved much faster when peer pressure brought people together. But now that we're all intellectual and read books and have brilliant conversations, not out on there hunting for food, people have a lot of time to quibble over new ideas like purpose and hope.
Hope that doesn't derail the thread. Just trying to throw in a little Big Picture. (Well, imho, at least.) I'd like to be able to better imagine what it must have been like way back then, when religion was first invented and used to abuse intellectual freedom and clear thinking.
America is at a social stand still right now, and it is almost all due to the old idealistic tactics of the christian faith.
People can't keep up with what techology is giving us. Take stem cell research for example. It is the future, there is almost no limit to what it could possibly accomplish. Yet they think 150 human cells have a soul, because of the they refuse to allow research of such a great thing.
So yes, I think actively helping people open their minds to how idiotic their beliefs are in an ALL MIGHTY being is a good thing. How this is done however, should be careful. Most christians attack you with their beliefs. They refuse to discuss something they do not already believe in.

The benefits of genderless apparel on the general well-being of children
Some rights reserved, tippi t via Flickr Creative Commons
It's a sad reality that we now live in a world where parents now believe it's acceptable to spend thousands of dollars on their children's wardrobes. Sometimes mothers even end up spending as much as $170 on a single item of clothing that their kids will soon outgrow anyway, while they themselves end up scrimping on their own wardrobes, and even feeling bad about purchases for themselves.
There's also a worrying trend emerging: parents dressing their kids to look like miniature adults – stylish, hip, and fashionable. But while it may seem tempting to dress our kids in the latest trends, is it really what's best for them? Should LBDs become the next priority purchase for little girls, and high-cut sweaters for little boys? Or should responsible parents, in fact, start turning to something much more practical, like unisex clothing?
Cultivating a Culture of "Letting Children Be Children"
Katie Holmes often came under attack for letting her daughter Suri dress in clothes that seemed to be inappropriate for her age, wearing makeup and heels while she strutted down New York City streets. But the reality is that playing dress up is a long-established form of childhood play, and as long as children aren't dressing in wildly inappropriate clothing or putting themselves at risk for hypo- or hyperthermia, then we should let them be.
Conversely, Angelina Jolie also received some backlash for letting her daughter Shiloh dress like a boy. "She likes tracksuits, she likes [regular] suits. She likes to dress like a boy," she told Vanity Fair magazine. "She wants to be a boy. So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys' everything. She thinks she's one of the brothers." But this problem isn't exclusive to girls either. Earlier this year, news broke out about a little boy who was taunted for wanting to dress like Sleeping Beauty for a schoolmate's birthday party. Often, we end up imposing our own set of rules to our children, and forcing them to dress in what we think is appropriate.
This, however, shouldn't be the case. Instead of basing our decisions for what our kids should wear on current trends, unisex children's clothing designer Katie Pietrasik, founder of Tootsa MacGinty, tells Wales Online that decisions should be made based on the idea that "Clothes for children should be built for sturdier purposes than the changing vagaries of style – to be passed from sibling to sibling, or friend to friend regardless of gender." As Clutch Magazine is quick to point out, while it's nice to play dress up and photograph kids wearing stylish clothing, we have to ask ourselves, "are these outfits practical for everyday kiddie life?"
Unlike designer brands, unisex clothing is made with children's lifestyles in mind. Comfort and practicality are key to unisex brands, allowing children to dress in appropriate styles, and still climb trees and play in jungle gyms. Rather than imposing stereotypes like "girls should sit at tea parties and play with dolls" and "boys should be little monsters", unisex clothing encourages them to be themselves, and play at their own comfort levels. A child dressed to the nines in skinny jeans, a cropped top, or a little black dress may feel too intimidated to play at recess lest they dirty their clothes, but a child dressed in unisex clothing will feel confident enough to take on any and all of the day's activities.
Let's not forget that one of the most important things to remember when trying to build confidence in our kids is to let them make their own decisions. Sometimes, this could mean something as simple as letting them dress themselves, as Katie Holmes has often done with Suri. While her struggles with making sure that Suri dresses in clothing appropriate for the weather is all too real, investing in unisex clothing keeps these incidents to a minimum. Unisex clothing is easy to mix and match, and key pieces can be worn at all seasons. With items being made from quality, sturdy material, and most of them even being made to be adjustable to adapt to growth spurts, spending $170 on one outfit for our kids should soon be a thing of the past.

Mobile facial recognition just got about $100 million closer for Facebook users.
Face.com has been purchased by Facebook for between $80-$100 million, according to TechCrunch and others.
The Israeli company's forte is mobile face recognition for users. So, point, click and wait and the software should bring up suggestions for tagging. Tap. Done. (Theoretically, like the existing Klik app.)
U.S. & World
Face.com's blog pledges to continue to show the love to its developer community, with many thanks to the coders who have used Face across the product spectrum.
Paired with the $1 billion purchase of Instagram, Facebook's move toward being the mobile-photo-sharing platform (as well as aspirations to be a platform for everything) gets more complete.

Recent news reports which suggest that the world is running out of certain essential metals are just scaremongering say scientists from the British Geological Survey (BGS).
The basis for these stories is the idea that we have reached 'peak metal' — that we have used more than is now available to mine — but they ignore some very basic facts about the science and economics of mineral deposits within the Earth's crust.
'We are unlikely to run out of metal as long as we continue to invest in the science needed to identify where new mineral deposits can be found, and to use what we already have more efficiently.
These unfounded concerns deflect attention from more pressing issues regarding our use of resources from the Earth '.
Subscribers to 'peak metal' correlate declining production with serious depletion of metals in the Earth. Experience of the last 200 years suggests otherwise. Metal production is highly cyclical, with intermittent peaks and troughs which are closely linked to economic cycles. Declining production is generally driven by falling demand and prices, not by scarcity.
The total stock of metal in the earth's crust is finite, but it is also extremely large.
The stocks of metal for which we know the precise location, tonnage and which we can extract economically with existing technology (usually known as 'reserves') are tiny in comparison to the total amount.
Together with production data, 'peak metal' advocates tend to use these reserve figures as a basis for their calculations, despite the fact that both production and reserves are continually changing in response to movements in markets and scientific advances.
In the longer term, advances in science and technology mean that we are getting better at finding and extracting metals — a significant proportion of global uranium reserves are in a single deposit in Australia which was unknown 30 years ago.
For these reasons the use of reserve and production data to predict 'peak metal' is highly dubious as these figures are closely related to the state of the global economy and scientific and technological advancement.
Mr Bloodworth said, 'As the global population grows and more people aspire to improved standards of living, continued scientific research will help ensure that future demand for metal is met by a combination of new resources in the Earth, better recycling of metals in our society and from more efficient end-use — that is, doing more with less. For example, in 1985, a kilo of aluminium made 46 drinks cans. Today the same amount makes 70 cans. This shows how we can become much more efficient in our everyday use of metals. The big catch is that this needs to be done without compromising our environment, so we also need science to break the link between our use of metals and greenhouse gas emissions.'

The law is expected to make lenders try harder to keep borrowers in their homes. Loan companies must prove they tried to modify the delinquent loans before they can begin foreclosing.
But supporters acknowledge the California Foreclosure Prevention Act won't stop thousands of foreclosures from eventually happening. There have been more than 365,000 foreclosures in California since early 2007, with many more already scheduled.
The bill passed in February is similar to the Obama administration's Making Home Affordable Program that began in March.
Both encourages lenders to cut interest rates or rewrite loans to affordable levels.

What to Know
- "Star Trek: Discovery'' actor Anthony Rapp accused Spacey of making a sexual advance when Rapp was 14.
- Spacey apologized, then came out as gay.
- Richard Dreyfuss' son, Harry, also accused Spacey of groping him in 2008.
Los Angeles County prosecutors confirmed Wednesday they are reviewing a second potential sexual assault case involving actor Kevin Spacey.
The Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department presented the potential case Tuesday, which is under review, according to the District Attorney's Office. No further details were disclosed.
Another potential case against Spacey that was presented to the District Attorney's Office by the Sheriff's Department on April 5 remains under review, according to prosecutors.
.medium .leadMediaRegion.city_module iframe {height:421px;}
The two-time Oscar winner has been under fire following allegations by a number of men that he behaved inappropriately toward them.
Spacey publicly apologized last October to "Star Trek: Discovery'' actor Anthony Rapp, who accused Spacey of making a sexual advance years ago in his New York apartment, when Spacey was 26 and Rapp was 14.
U.S. & World
Spacey said he does not remember the encounter, which would have occurred more than 30 years ago.
"But if I did behave then as he describes, I owe him the sincerest apology for what would have been deeply inappropriate drunken behavior, and I am sorry for the feelings he describes having carried with him all these years,'' the actor said.
Spacey then revealed that he is gay.
Actor Richard Dreyfuss' son, Harry, subsequently alleged in an account on Buzzfeed.com that Spacey groped him in 2008 while he, his father and Spacey were in an apartment while Spacey was directing his dad in a play at the Old Vic in London.
Spacey's publicist said in a statement last November that the actor was "taking the time necessary to seek evaluation and treatment.''
Netflix announced last year that it had severed all ties with Spacey and that it would not be involved with any further production of "House of Cards'' that included him.
Spacey won an Oscar for best actor in 1999 for "American Beauty'' and for best supporting actor in 1996 for "The Usual Suspects,'' along with a Golden Globe in 2015 for best actor in a TV series for "House of Cards.''
Following the allegations of sexual misconduct, he was removed from his role in "All The Money in the World'' -- a role for which his replacement, Christopher Plummer, received an Academy Award nomination this year.
Spacey's latest movie, "Billionaire Boys Club,'' was shown in 11 theaters last weekend and collected just $618, according to the Hollywood Reporter.

How a Robot Is Changing the Game of Antarctic Science
Wired Science
February 28, 2013
The trek across the Antarctic ice sheet is a long, hazardous, and costly journey for scientific researchers working in the world's most remote location. Astronomers, geologists, and biologists regularly spend much of their field season and over 70% of their hard-earned grant money on logistical support—an intricate choreography of supply planes, snowmobiles, and tractors meant to move gear to where it needs to be.
One of the most significant time sinks is the crevasse-detection process, which involves a massive snowcat tractor treading its way slowly across the ice. As Laura Ray, a Professor of Engineering at Dartmouth, describes it, a 6-meter long pole extends from the front of the vehicle with a ground penetrating radar (GPR) instrument at its end. As the driver inches forward, the system surveys the subsurface like a metal detector-wielding beachcomber tentatively looking for buried treasure. Sitting nearby is a technician, eyes glued to a screen that displays the GPR data in real time. Inch by inch, data streams across the monitor: if the look-out thinks it indicates a crevasse, she has two seconds to press an emergency stop button. Making the right choice could be the difference between smooth passage and a costly, time-consuming, dangerous crash.
It's an important and likely life-saving program—one born from frightening mishaps—but it soaks up a lot of time. "It's tedious and tiring," says Ray, "and there are few people that do it well."
Extreme conditions, long hours, and tedium: just the job for a robot. Ray and her colleagues have spent years developing such a tool, and the latest edition of the Yeti autonomous vehicle offers important financial and scientific benefits.

Our sweet senior angora bunny left us yesterday. We suspected that she was not feeling her best so I brought her inside and held her in my arms and that is where she eventually took her last breath.
Then my kind-hearted husband stood in the rain digging a hole for her tiny body. She is buried right next to our garden where she loved to spend her evenings.
Rest peacefully Betty Bunny. You were loved deeply.

Federal authorities investigating the panga that came ashore in Rancho Palos Verdes this week filed documents Tuesday that revealed where the boat came from, how much the suspected undocumented immigrants paid for the trip and where they were headed. | PHOTOS
The affidavit, based on a series of interviews with those taken into custody Monday, was filed in support of smuggling and conspiracy charges brought against four men.
Federal authorities said the panga originated from somewhere near Tijuana, Mexico. The two dozen occupants traveled in a 27-foot, single-engine outboard, open-hull boat that was spotted before dawn Monday by U.S. Customs and Border Protection agents surveilling the Abalone Cove area with a "forward-looking infra-red device." (The area is regularly used to smuggle undocumented immigrants and drugs into the U.S. from Mexico.)
The agents noticed that the boat was traveling quickly, with no lights, and was very low in the water. Suspecting a smuggling operation, they called in Homeland Security, the U.S. Coast Guard and local police.
As additional investigators arrived in the Portuguese Bend area, the smugglers' plans began to unravel quickly. At 6 a.m., Palos Verdes Estates police officers found two minivans parked near where the panga was headed. The drivers were talking on cellphones and tried to drive away as officers approached, according to the affidavit.
The men at the wheel of those vans – Maricela Salazar-Diaz and Jose De Jesus Chavez – were among the four charged with conspiring to smuggle illegal immigrants. They admitted in interviews that they intended to drive the immigrants to a Wal-Mart store in Montebello. The drivers were told they would be paid $100 per person. Chavez said he had made $1,800 a week before by doing that.
Ivan Ramirez-Leyva and Juan Francisco Becerra-Ruiz also were charged with smuggling. They were identified by passengers as the men in charge of navigating the boat. Ramirez was convicted of smuggling illegal aliens to the U.S. in a panga last year. He spent 17 months in prison before he was deported earlier this year.
The boat passengers told investigators that they met smugglers in Tijuana, and paid sums of $3,000 to $9,000 for rides to the United States. No one was sure where they boarded the panga.
The trip was tense at times because the boat pilots argued over the engine noise and twice threatened to throw one of the passengers overboard because he was "too fat."
Everyone aboard was a Mexican citizen except one man, who was Guatemalan. Some of the passengers told investigators their plans once they arrived in America.
One man wanted to move to Minnesota. Another worked as a mechanic and came to visit his daughter, who lives in Chula Vista. Passengers were headed for Riverside, Huntington Beach and Salinas to visit family and work.
Passenger Gustavo Vargas said he had just been deported from Michigan in May. He was recently in a Tijuana bar watching boxing when a man approached him and offered to take him back to the United States for $8,000.
The passengers will be repatriated to Mexico unless they are held as witnesses in the criminal trial.

Goldilocks gem: Everything is just right
ADDRESS: 1203 Meriwether Street
BUILDING: 2,080 fin. sq. ft. / 1,107 unfin.
LAND: 0.17 acre
NEIGHBORHOOD: Martha Jefferson
CURB APPEAL: 6 out of a possible 10
LISTED BY: Roger Voisinet of RE/MAX Realty Specialists 974-1500
Traditionally, we think of harbingers of warmer weather as robins or daffodils or– in a die-hard's case– the box scores from spring training. But in Charlottesville as well as other blossoming areas, as soon as the weather moderates, "For Sale" signs appear as if by magic and denote a different type of migration.
Whether a seller is moving across town or across the country, spring seems to be the time for quick property hand-offs. Now that Belmont has apparently reached its zenith, folks wanting downtown proximity swivel their heads toward nearby neighborhoods. But forget the quaint notion of finding a fixer-upper. Everything seems to have already been fixed up and priced accordingly.
In this little enclave off Little High Street between Locust Avenue and Market, the houses tend to be small and compact. This one, then, makes so little impact at first glance that it could house some nudists and nobody would notice. As it sits square and center on its allotted space, the only impression is of a five-year-old's crayon rendition of a house– the front door smack in the middle with four windows equally spaced around it. Cute, but no design cigar.
I think someone once said appearances can be deceiving. And this house is no exception. Inside, the unexciting first impression is replaced by an almost luminous allure. The pale yellow walls in each room radiate warmth. Nothing in particular catches the eye, perhaps because of the total lack of pretension.
Like a carousel, the rooms revolve around a steep central staircase. An office to the right of the front door has floor-to-ceiling bookshelves, and with its southern exposure and plant collection, is the most welcoming spot in the house. A living room (if it can really be called that) with fireplace made zero impression as we headed for the kitchen (the real living room).
The 13 x 15 family room is the biggest room in the house, with a door to a lovely little screened porch and a row of windows providing views of the back yard. Here something must be said about the décor. From the furniture selection to the paintings on the walls, the house looks perfect. Tip for sellers: such evident good taste goes a long way to giving potential buyers a view to how well the house can be lived in.
A full basement for laundry and storage is so immaculately clean (like the rest of the house) that prospective buyer mothers will wonder where the children live. The steep staircase (the second story must have been an attic at one point)– where, without the banister anyone under five and over sixty might struggle– leads to two front rooms with built-in shelving and closets and some nifty nooks, thanks to the dormer windows.
A master bedroom containing just that– a huge bed– provides views through a wall of windows to peaceful landscaping because it's situated high enough to avoid neighbors. Even in the winter, we could see only trees. Off this room, a huge walk-in closet keeps clothes tidy and accessible.
Downstairs and out onto the back porch, a good sized backyard (by city standards) begs for family time. A small flower garden, along with a vegetable spot, has been meticulously cared for. There's enough grass to keep a weekend mower happy– or grumpy. A rustic shed holds various garden tools, and a huge holly tree provides a green shield year-round. Neighboring lawns are in full view from this level, so one imagines the collective camaraderie during warm spells where the sounds of children playing mix so well with the tinkling of ice in grown ups' libations.
Goldilocks would feel right at home here, where nothing is either too big or too small– all is just right. Except, of course the price tag. But I think someone once said everything is relative.
And as this L.A.-bound reporter has quickly figured out, compared to California prices, it's a bargain.
