The Express English team
This is what some people in London told us:
A woman said that one of her friends is so eccentric that he even has tattoos on his feet.
Another one said she knows somebody who is over the top in the way she dresses.
But not everybody seems to indulge in eccentricity. An interviewee admitted that she and her friends are boring and conform so that they can fit into their environment.
Did you know?
- Fact
Lady Hester Lucy Stanhope is a famous English eccentric. She was born in 1776 - a time when women were not expected to be independent or adventurous. Yet Lady Hester travelled to the East, went hunting for buried treasure and was even crowned Queen by Bedouin Arabs.
- Language tip
'Offbeat' and 'off the wall' are some of the words used when referring to something unusual or weird.
- Cultural tip
'Mad Dogs and Englishmen' is a song written by Noel Coward in the early 20th century in which he talks about how English expatriates were seen as eccentrics in the British tropical colonies.

Well, I think I have a very eccentric friend since I was a teenager. He doesn´t care about what people will think about him, he just do the things he wants. He speaks loud and likes to wear very colored and crazy clothes. In my opinion, this can be a way to express your ideas and show the world you don't need to be like all the other ones.

I think I am the eccentric friend but more because I don't care about what people think about how I'm acting or talking.
I don't care if people appreciate my humour or not and that's why I can make some fun or weird comparisons.
Moreover, I used to talk about myself without paying attention. I'm just always trying to not give a wrong image or make feel my friends uncomfortable.

Hi everybody! Yes I've got some eccentric friends and the most extraordinary of them is my friend Max. He's thought to be eccentric here in Ukraine because he drinks no alcohol at all and in our country such people are considered to be weird.
I can't say that the eccentric person is someone who dresses in a different way or has a lot of tattoos as for me they are just people who experience lack of attention but those people which really have the odd mindset they are eccentric and I know that to be eccentric is not easy.

Is eccentricity a positive or negative feature? If someone's dress, appearance, or behaviour is quite different from another's, we call him eccentric. Most people prefer to fit into their environment, they want to feel comfortable and protected. There aren't many people who can indulge in eccentricities. If you venture to be eccentric in Asian and Western countries, you must be ready to be an outlaw. Asian people are notoriously conservative people and you must be brave and invulnerable if you decided to go against the current. People from democratic countries are more tolerant of people who are over-the-top in something. Sometimes, people try to appear over-the-top to capitalize on it. Usually, new styles of art are founded by eccentric people. They aren't afraid to revolt against established principles. They often live in poverty and obscurity. It takes decades to accept their mastery.

To have an eccentric friend it can be fun sometimes and even provocative. If you are an average person, having an eccentric fried could be tiring. But, what can you do if you have an eccentric relative? You can't stop interacting with that person. I am in that situation. My sister in law is so strange and unusual and I never know how it is appropriate to deal with her. She always does what she wants even if she hurts somebody else's feelings. Otherwise, she has a complex personality, taste for fashion and interior design, charisma and intelligence. Despite all her qualities, I feel strange and uncomfortable when I meet her.

Well, I would like to be more eccentric than I am... I'm the kind of person who wants to look special and different from the rest so as to "call the attention". I mean, I think it is awfully boring the fact the we all wear the same clothes, all the girls look beautiful the same way... I'd like to have more confidence in order to be capable to look different and great at the same time.
By "eccentric" I don't mean ridiculous. I'd hate that.
Just to give you an example, I think that Rihanna, the American singer, looks magnifique in her attire in the video "What's my name?". In it, she shows herself sexy, confident, funny, special... everything together! And kinda eccentric because of the clothes she wears. And her hairdo, and all of her style.

But I've known he for 17 years and some of his eccentric features don't seemed me strange or unusual, may be I've got accustomed.
As for eccentricity in my opinion all depend on public, because people are different and what is eccentric for one, it isn't for other. Also time and century play a big role; can you imagine medieval knight walking down in your street?
So when it is said about eccentricity I think it is said about special features of someone's character and even if you feel usual for somebody you may seem eccentric))

When his fellow students asked him to hypnotise someone, he refused. They were very persistent and finally they convinced him to do this. He hypnotise one girl, who ate an onion like it was the sweetest apple, without tears, of course. He realized how much hypnosis is powerful skill and mighty weapon and he stopped to deal in it.

The ocean is quickly becoming a growing and www.roli-guggers.de gross mass of plastic. So two enviro-sailors are drawing attention to cialis online american this mound of junk by floating away in all that crap that people are throwing into the sea, forcing us to see what we're discarding.
The two marine research scientists have made a raft out of 15,000 plastic bottles and a Cessna 310 to raise awareness of best price viagra with prescription how much plastic is floating in the ocean. The Algalita Marine Research Foundation has studied how much plastic marine debris there is in the North Pacific and found, distressingly, an exponential increase. So, the scientists are sailing the 2,000 miles from Los Angeles to Hawaii this week on viagra sale cheap their raft made of debris, hoping to draw attention to the riffraff thrown into the sea and forgotten.
"Once it goes past this point," says enviro-sailor Joel Paschal at the http://www.calamusdesign.it/cialis-best-buy Long Beach marina in California, "it goes to the ocean. It's out of sight, out of mind. People don't see it every day."
The voyage is expected to take six weeks for the 1.5 ton raft, named "Junk" to sail the distance. On board, Joel and Marcus Eriksen, a former Gulf War veteran and marine scientist, have three months worth of food and water, including a five gallon bucket of Hershey's kisses. They're also equipped with three GPS units, two satellite phones and discount viagra pills 2VHF radios.
Dr. Eriksen says to make the raft sink, every single one of the 15,000 plastic bottles lashed together would have to levitra label be punctured. The raft is also backed up by 12 pontoons so if one was to rupture, the other 11 can keep the vessel floating. The "Junk" raft is also using parts from discarded fishing nets, a solar generator and a bicycle generator to power its eco-journey along the Pacific. Follow the buy ultram online canada journey here at the sailor's blog.
"It's an environmental issue, it's a human health issue and it needs to change now," says Dr. Eriksen.

Several articles published in the July 5 Journal of the American Medical Association discuss the safety, efficacy, and side effects of a smoking cessation drug, varenicline (Chantix), which was approved by the FDA in May of this year. The related studies were supported by the drug's manufacturer, Pfizer, and conducted by the Varenicline Phase 3 Study Group.
Dr. David Gonzales and colleagues tested the efficacy of 1 mg of varenicline given twice a day for 12 weeks against 150 mg of the sustained-release antidepressant bupropion - also a smoking cessation aid - as well as a placebo. Of the 1,025 smokers who participated, 44 percent who received varenicline were able to quit smoking between weeks 9 and 12, while 29.5 percent quit with buproprion and 17.7 percent quit with placebo. After 52 weeks, abstinence dropped to 21.9 percent for varenicline, 16.1 percent for bupropion, and 8.4 percent for placebo. The test group reported nausea and insomnia, but generally had fewer side effects than those who took bupropion. These results were mirrored by Dr. Douglas E. Jorenby and colleagues, who tested a similar protocol in 1,027 smokers.
A third study, by Dr. Serena Tonstad and colleagues, showed that an additional 12 weeks of treatment with varenicline significantly improved continuous abstinence up to 52 weeks after the study began: 43.6 percent remained smoke free between weeks 13 and 52, compared with 36.9 percent who received a placebo throughout the same period.
In an editorial, Drs. Robert C. Klesges, Karen C. Johnson, and Grant Somes of the University of Tennessee Health Science Center and St. Jude Children's Research Hospital acknowledged that varenicline is effective for smoking cessation, but warned that high dropout rates in the nonvarenicline study groups may have skewed results in favor of the drug. Noting that the majority of participants in the three related studies were unable to quit smoking, even with pharmacologic aids, they wrote, "Patients currently cannot and probably never will simply be able to 'take a pill' that will make them stop smoking. Smokers must want to stop smoking and must be willing to work hard to achieve [that goal]."
Survivors of Childhood Cancer Risk Premature Menopause
A woman who survives cancer as a child has a greatly increased risk of experiencing menopause before she reaches age 40. If this occurs, her risk for osteoporosis, cardiac disease, and psychosexual dysfunction increases.
Researchers working with the Childhood Cancer Survivors Study (CCSS), a retrospective longitudinal cohort study of more than 20,000 childhood cancer survivors diagnosed between 1970 and 1986, found that survivors had nonsurgical premature menopause at a rate 13 times greater than the control group. The affected women were older at time of assessment, more likely to have had Hodgkin lymphoma, less likely to have had leukemia, and had greater ovarian exposure to radiation and/or alkylating chemotherapy agents.
Dr. Charles A. Sklar of Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center and colleagues identified 2,819 CCSS subjects who were menstruating more than 5 years after their cancer diagnosis; controls were selected from among survivors' siblings, not always from the same families - in this case 1,065 age-matched women with normal menstrual patterns.
In an accompanying editorial in the July 5 Journal of the National Cancer Institute (JNCI), Drs. Wendy Y. Chen and JoAnn E. Manson of Harvard Medical School wrote, "the health consequences of premature menopause are still poorly understood," noting that some of them are controversial, and not all are negative: such women have a lower risk of breast and ovarian cancer. Nonetheless, this study helps clinicians identify women for whom counseling, prevention, screening, and treatment strategies should be considered.
Biomarker IMP3 Predicts Kidney Cancer Metastasis and Survival
Researchers found that expression of the IMP3 protein by renal carcinoma tumors indicates a high risk of metastasis, which is the main cause of death in this most common type of kidney cancer, according to results published in the July issue of Lancet Oncology.
Based on a study of 501 primary and metastatic renal-cell tumors, IMP3 expression was greatly increased not only in metastatic tumors but also in a subset of primary tumors that were likely to subsequently develop metastases. "Patients with IMP3-positive primary tumors were almost six times more likely to subsequently develop metastasis than were those with IMP3-negative tumors," explain the investigators, led by Dr. Zhong Jiang of the University of Massachusetts Medical Center.
This high predictive value makes IMP3 potentially useful as "an independent prognostic marker that can be used at initial diagnosis of renal-cell carcinoma to identify patients who have a high potential to develop metastasis and who might benefit from early systemic treatment," the researchers suggest.
The metastatic potential of localized kidney tumors is difficult to predict, but about 20 percent of patients with localized tumors develop metastasis, and the median survival for those with metastatic disease is roughly 13 months. "Therefore, biomarkers that can accurately distinguish localized tumors with a high probability of metastasis from those that will remain indolent are needed," the scientists add.
IMP3 immunohistochemical staining "is a simple, inexpensive, and reliable assay" and "can be used at initial diagnosis - the best time for considering early systemic treatment," they recommend.
Chornobyl Nuclear Accident's Impact on Thyroid Cancer Risks
Little has been known about the carcinogenic effects of radioactive iodines on children. The first cohort study on the impact of the 1986 Chornobyl Reactor accident shows that the risk of thyroid cancer in children and young adults in Ukraine is strongly related to the levels of each individual's exposure to radioactive iodine, according to results reported in the July 5 JNCI.
Scientists from Ukraine, NCI's Division of Cancer Epidemiology and Genetics (DCEG), Columbia University, and other institutions analyzed data obtained from screening the thyroids of more than 13,000 children who were less than 18 years old at the time of the accident, lived in the most heavily contaminated areas of Ukraine, and had their radiation exposure to the thyroid measured by instrumentation. The analyses reported here are based on the first 2-year cycle (1998-2000) of screening for thyroid nodules by palpation and ultrasound.
Individual thyroid doses were estimated at the time of the accident based on the direct thyroid measurements and questionnaires reporting residence location and milk and food consumption, adjusted for ground contamination.
Forty-five pathologically confirmed thyroid cancers, mostly of the papillary type, were detected among 13,127 cohort members. "Exposure to radioactive iodine [131I] was strongly associated with an increased risk of thyroid cancer among those exposed as children and adolescents," the researchers report. "Thyroid cancer showed a strong, monotonic, and approximately linear relationship with individual thyroid dose estimates, yielding an estimated excess relative risk of more than five-fold per Gy." The researchers estimated that, in the absence of Chornobyl radiation, 11.2 thyroid cancer cases would have been expected compared with the 45 observed; i.e., an increase of 75 percent over the expected value.
Younger age at exposure was associated with an increased risk of radiation-related thyroid cancer, although this interaction effect was not statistically significant. Iodine status, as measured by current urinary iodine excretion or diffuse goiter, a marker of past deficiency, did not influence risk, although it has been considered a potential modifying factor with respect to thyroid cancer.
Data from subsequent screening cycles are being analyzed to examine the risk related to newly arising versus prevalent thyroid cancers.

Innovative Jupiter Lightplane Makes Le Bourget Return
From Henri Mignet's tiny 'Pou-de-Ciel' to the latest composite designs, France has a long history of innovative light aircraft. One chapter of that story is being celebrated here at the Paris Air Show with the display of the Moynet Jupiter 360, a tandem-engine light twin that first appeared at the Paris show in 1965. The airplane is undergoing restoration with the aim of having it back in the air in 2015 to mark the 50th anniversary of its first flight and its debut appearance at Le Bourget.
Designed by André Moynet, a veteran pilot from the Normandie-Niemen fighter regiment that fought with the Russian air force during World War II, the Jupiter began life in 1957 as a single-engine airplane, but evolved into its unusual "push-pull" arrangement during the design process. Moynet adopted the configuration to provide the power and safety of a twin, but without asymmetric handling characteristics.
Moynet had the support of Marcel Chassigny, then the head of the Matra company, and between them they hoped that the Jupiter 360 could provide real competition to U.S.-designed light aircraft. Matra's Lucien Tieles partnered with Moynet on the final design. Despite the proposal of a pressurized version, the Jupiter project was later abandoned.
Two examples of the Jupiter were built and flown (plus a single static test airframe), the first constructed by Matra and the second by Sud-Aviation. First flying at Villacoublay on Dec. 17, 1963, on the power of two 200-hp Lycoming IO-360s, the four-seat Jupiter 360-4, F-BLKE, is held in storage by the Musée de l'Air et de l'Espace. Parts of its fuselage were to be used as the gondola of an abortive airship project, before it was recovered by Ailes Anciennes Le Bourget and presented to the museum.
Meanwhile, Moynet himself retained the second aircraft, the six-seater 360-6 F-BLKY, which first flew on May 23, 1965 with 290-hp IO-540 engines. It passed into the hands of the Musée Régional de l'Air Angers after Moynet's death in 1993. Limited restoration work was carried out in 1994 and from 1998, before the major current restore-to-flight effort began in 2009, undertaken by six volunteers. In March 2012 the museum signed a partnership agreement with the Association Aérospatiale Matra to aid with the restoration.
Could you give me any information as to what ever happened to Lucien Tielis. He was the head of the Reims Cessna Plant when he reported to my husband, Robert E. Ramsey, in the 1980s. Mr. Tielis was always such a gentleman and I always admired him, as did my husband, who passed away in the late 1990s. Any information you can give me would be appreciated.
Thank you
Ellie Ramsey-Dye

David Harris at the Vera Institute's Prosecution and Racial Justice Project
Professor David Harris participated in the semi-annual meeting of the Vera Institute's Prosecution and Racial Justice Program on December 6 and 7, 2012. The Program is a pioneering effort to collect statistics on prosecutorial discretion and then analyze these data for participating prosecution offices around the country; the statistical patterns and analyses enable prosecutors to understand when racial disparities may be arising from their office practices. Professor Harris has been a member of the Program's Advisory Board since its inception. The meeting, which took place in Austin, Texas, examined results from current sites, as well as not-yet-released analyses from the newest site, the Manhattan District Attorney's Office.

What Is the Easter on the Bayou 2013 Rain Date?
We're crossing our fingers that Mother Nature doesn't hit Cypress Black Bayou with rain this Saturday (March 23) and make us reschedule Easter on the Bayou, but if she does we have a rain date set.
Easter on the Bayou's rain delay date is Sunday, March 24, from 12 p.m. to 4 p.m. That change won't impact the fun and festivities we have planned, including a massive Easter Egg hunt, bounce houses and an obstacle course.
Either way, we'll see you this weekend!

Pit-Stopping Politically Incorrectly in Despeñaperros, Spain
When your straight-as-an-arrow roadtrip through Spain's dusty, high-altitude central plateau ends abruptly in a rumple of mountains and canyons, it becomes clear why the transition from the center of Spain to the south has always been a difficult one. From the outside looking in, the country's transition from fascism to a modern democracy may seem to have been a comparatively relatively easy ride... until you happen upon a place like Casa Pepe. This roadside bar teeters on the Puerto de Despeñaperros, the mountain pass between La Mancha and Andalusia best known for the Battle of Las Navas de Tolosa in 1212, a key victory for the Christian reconquista, the beginning of the end for Muslim rule in the Iberian Peninsula. Regardless of your political or religious affiliation, a stop here now is almost inevitable. There's nowhere else to pull off along this remote and scenic white-knuckle stretch of highway. What to expect: a bizarre, in-your-face shrine to el Generalísmo Francisco Franco and Spanish nationalism, a ceiling covered in antlers, a cornucopia of delicious local pork products, and a growing appreciation for the plentiful potholes on the road to Spanish democracy.

I'm Elizabeth Potts Weinstein, a lawyer, writer, mom, and explorer.
As a small business attorney, I help entrepreneurs, artists, coaches, and consultants find simplicity in the law, so they can get back to spending their time helping their clients and changing the world.
Working together one-on-one, via a flat-rate legal Startup Plan or an unlimited ongoing General Counsel relationship, I can help you:
- Get unstuck and free from undecided legal issues and looming business bullies, so you can keep moving forward on what's really important.
- Create legal contracts and frameworks that are in alignment with your business type, personality and style (yes, even if you are virtual, alternative, spiritual, or artistic).
- Keep a legal eye on your business, looking for what you "don't know that you don't know," so you can avoid getting into an accidental legal mess.
- Structure your business and projects to protect your intellectual property, your money, your people, and yourself.
- Get your business set up right, quickly and efficiently, so you can get your work started or continue to grow.
The thing is, you're a smart and capable business owner.

Based on 'The Long Walk' by former Polish POW Slavomir Rawicz, the extraordinary true story of escape and survival, 'The Way Back', exudes raw power and fierce energy from the outset. Set in 1942, it begins with Janusz, a young Polish soldier, being sent to a gulag concentration camp, deep in the freezing wastes of Siberia. There he falls in with a disparate group of prisoners with whom he plots an audacious escape plan that would take them across thousands of miles to sanctuary in British India. What follows is an astonishing and relentlessly paced account of a desperate journey across borders, through extreme weather, through the bleak grey-white wastes of Siberia to the heat and sand of the Mongolian desert, under constant threat of exposure and the crucial evolution of the dynamic between the escapees. Some will survive the journey, others will not. Under extreme pressure, what measures will the men take to ensure their survival - and at what human cost?

TORONTO – Mike Komisarek is not oblivious to the impending buyout provision in the next CBA, nor is he immune to the connection of his name to it.
"I'm a realist," said a trimmed-down Komisarek on Tuesday afternoon. "I know where I stand. I know what's gone on here the last couple years. I don't need someone to tell me that I'm a candidate for that, but I see it as an opportunity. I have nothing to lose."
Now 30 and entering his 10th NHL season, Komisarek is attempting to reboot his career and leave behind the frustration and mess of his first three years in Toronto. With two years to go on a contract carrying an annual cap hit of $4.5 million, Komisarek is an obvious candidate for the new amnesty provision of the impending CBA, one that allows clubs two buyouts free from cap implications in the summer of 2013 or 2014.
Such a possibility has left the Long Island native teeming with motivation, anxious to reclaim hold of his career in what may be his final opportunity in Toronto. "I don't want to make a headline," said Komisarek, "but you want to quiet people down and you want to shut people up. I know what I've shown is not the player I'm capable of [being]… I'm probably my harshest critic and I'm disappointed in myself, but you move on. I'm looking forward to having a good season."
Komisarek endured perhaps the worst season of his career last year, one that saw him play in just 45 games, a healthy scratch more often than not. Meeting with Randy Carlyle for exit interviews after a merciful end to the season, Komisarek received his bulletin board material for the offseason.
"The message was loud and clear to me at the end of the season," Komisarek recalled of the conversation.
Carlyle told him to slim down to 230 pounds for the start of training camp, a loss of 10-15 pounds from where he concluded last season. Komisarek took the advice to heart, using the summer and subsequent locked-out months to shed the weight while targeting both his movement and athleticism. "We saw what happened with Nazem Kadri this summer," he grinned of Kadri, who arrived at Marlies training camp with undesirable body fat results and was subject to headlines for it. "He came into camp and there was sort of a rude awakening for him. I know guys sort of took that message and didn't want anyone coming to camp and having that happen to them. I took that message to heart."
Evidence of that determination will show itself shortly with the dawn of training camp and fitness testing on Sunday. "You are who you are at this point," he laughed. "There's no cramming for the fitness test."
At one point in the fall, he landed in Arizona for informal skates amongst a large group of NHL players which included Sidney Crosby. Komisarek was struck by the intensity, focus and determination of the Penguins star, describing with awe how Crosby managed to train through a nasty flu bug at one point.
After nearly three frustrating years under Ron Wilson, Komisarek - who was married in July - is looking to carve out the beginnings of a new future under Randy Carlyle. Carlyle is set to continue the imposition of a new defensive system and mentality - a shift that began in March - striking a direct contrast in approach to Wilson. "Where in the past it was more of a run-and-gun, we lacked that accountability a little bit," said Komisarek of the Leafs, who ranked 29th in goals against last season. "They're not going to hold preference to which guy it is. Guys are going to be held accountable. I think that message is going to be loud and clear when guys come into camp 'you better be ready to compete, you better be ready to work'."
It remains to be seen whether Komisarek can adapt and become a useful part for Carlyle on a defence with question marks. Quickness issues have dogged Komisarek since he left Montreal, subsequent struggles pushing his confidence downward, thus diminishing the requisite toughness of his prior game.
The fork in the road may have arrived. He knows the stakes.
"I've got nothing to lose," Komisarek concluded. "I want to lay it all on the line. I know I haven't played my best. I see it as a great opportunity. I want to contribute and more importantly I want to win here.
"What's said is said and what's happened is in the past. I've already moved forward. I'm looking forward to this start to this year."

Live on the Rooftop
Live on the Rooftop: Keith Price
Thursday July 3 at 7:30pm
Online ticket sales for this show have now closed, but tickets are still available in person at the WAG's admission desk, or by calling 204-786-6641. See you at the show!
The Keith Price Double Quartet made quite a splash last year as part of Jazz Winnipeg's Nu Sounds Series. Guitarist Keith Price composed a new score for the classic film The Good, The Bad and The Ugly, for an eight-piece band with two bass players and two keyboardists. The group's sound is heavily funkified, with space for improvisation and spontaneity. Inspired by Miles Davis' electric period (think Bitches Brew), Price's band features Neil Watson (saxophone and flute), Jeff Presslaff and Will Bonness (keyboards), Marty Theissen (electric bass), Julian Bradford (upright bass), Scott Senior (percussion) and Jamie Carrasco (drums). For their upcoming Live on the Rooftop performance, the band will free themselves from the film and follow the muse wherever it may take them.

of that Holy Spirit, your appreciation of the Spirit's gifts.
First, who is the Holy Spirit? The Holy Spirit
is the third person of the Blessed Trinitythat is, the
Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Basically, that's our Christian
belief: There are three divine persons in one God.
When we talk about three persons, we tend to
think of individuals. That makes sense to us because if someone
told you that your favorite music group was appearing in
person, you would visualize three or four individuals.
But that's not how it is with God.
The inner life of God is nothing like our experience.
We only know about it because God has told us, and even then
it is so mysterious we can't fully understand it. God is timeless,
all holy, uncaused, perfect and infinite in mind and will,
and the three persons of God cannot be separated. God is Father,
Son and Holy Spirit.
Enter Jesus
We know that God's Spirit has always been around.
The very first verse in the first book of the Hebrew Scriptures,
Genesis, tells us that God breathed his spirit over the water
to make the earth. We see the spirit a number of other times
before Jesus came. For example, David was filled with the
spirit when he had the courage to face Goliath, and Moses
was radiant with the spirit when he received the Ten Commandments.
So we hear of the Father and the Spirit in the Hebrew Scriptures.
But was Jesus there? Didn't he come later? Wasn't he a human
being like we are?
The answer to all these questions is yes. Jesus
is the Word of God, so he was present all through what we
now call Old Testament times. But although the people experienced
the spirit mightily, they knew God as power. They thought
that their best response was to try to please God by obeying
the Law and the commandments, even though they didn't always
understand what those laws and commandments meant.
But God spoke the word that became flesh: Jesus.
He came as a fully human being who would have a life like
ours, with a beginning and an end. Through his life, we learned
what God really meant by the commandments. He showed us how
to live and taught us about the relationship of the Father,
Son and Holy Spirit. He dealt with all the human problems
that we have, but he called on all the love of God and strength
of the Holy Spirit which were within him to live a life that
was completely without sin. He set a perfect example for his
apostles. But his death on the cross looked like the end.
Crisis of Leadership
How can you keep following somebody's example
when that person's not around anymore? Think about the greatest
teacher or coach you have ever had. You were inspired while
he or she was involved, right? And the next year you were
still sort of high about that subject or sport because of
all you learned before and the way you felt about it. But
as a few years pass, your school spirit or team spirit fades.
Right? Why? Most people seem to need a continued connection
to keep up a relationship. This feeling sometimes is called
Jesus understood very well what would happen
to his followers once he was gone. When Peter had seen Jesus
walking across the water, Jesus said, "Come on out,"
and Peter was willing to try because Jesus was right there
to catch him. But another time when a storm came up on the
sea and Jesus was asleep, Peter panicked. So there was good
reason for Jesus to worry that the leaders he had trained
for his Church would run away at the first sign of trouble
from those who had nailed the real leader to a cross!
So Jesus told them that he would send a helper,
someone they could turn to when they needed to know if they
were doing the right thing. That helper is the Holy Spirit.
Here Comes the Advocate
Jesus told them that they would not be left
orphans when he died. He said that he would ask the Father
to send "another Advocate to be with you always, the
Spirit of truth, which the world cannot accept because it
neither sees nor knows it. But you know it because it remains
with you..." (John 14:16-17).
An advocate is a person who is always on your
side. And that is the job of the Holy Spirit: to always be
with us to guide and to help us. You probably don't remember
your Baptism, but think back to everything you've learned
about it. What are the words the priest or deacon who baptized
you said? "In the name of the Father, and of the Son
and of the Holy Spirit." So you already have the Holy
Spirit in your life.
Just like the apostles to whom Jesus spoke about
it in the first place, that Holy Spirit remains in you. But,
as Jesus also said, the world finds it hard to accept because
we can't see the Holy Spirit. So how do we know the Spirit's
there? How do we take advantage of this helper who will let
us know if things are right or wrong? Andif you are
preparing for Confirmationdoes this imply that you will
not receive the Holy Spirit until you are confirmed?
Let's take those questions one at a time. First,
how do you know that the Spirit is here? Let's look at the
evidence of the apostles' lives. After Jesus died, how do
you think they felt? They had no leader anymore. They must
have been terrified that, if anyone found out they were followers
of Jesus, they would get hung on a cross, too!
It's hard for us to relate to this kind of feeling,
living in a free country like ours. Try to imagine that a
new law is passed that makes it illegal to belong to a youth
group. Your group discusses it and, since you know there's
nothing wrong with youth groups, you decide to stay together.
The next week all your adult advisers are arrested because
they didn't break up the youth group.
Imagine what would happen. Some of you might
want to picket or fight for your rights, but others would
deny they ever belonged to a youth group. Some parents would
hire lawyers to get the advisers out of jail, but others would
say that their children couldn't have anything to do with
youth groups any more. So there you'd be, with no adult leadership
and none of your members agreeing on what to do.
That's just about what happened to the apostles.
Luke describes the situation in the Book of Acts. The Twelve
stayed together in a safe place, tried to pray and make decisions
about the future. They kept reviewing the stories about what
Jesus did when he was with them in hopes that this would help
them figure out what they should do next. They waited nervously
in the hope that the advocatethe helperthat Jesus
promised would come.
Then, the Acts of the Apostles tells us: The
apostles were in the room and "suddenly there came from
the sky a noise like a strong driving wind, and it filled
the entire house in which they were. Then there appeared to
them tongues as of fire, which parted and came to rest on
each one of them. And they were all filled with the holy Spirit
and began to speak in different tongues, as the Spirit enabled
them to proclaim" (Acts 2:2-4).
Can you imagine what the apostles did after
they received the Holy Spirit? They left the safety of that
room and began to tell the stories of Jesus to other people.
They were no longer afraid. This transformation from fear
to courage, from silence to an inspired message, proved to
many in Jerusalem at the time that a new Spirit, a Holy Spirit,
had transformed the apostles. In that same chapter of Acts,
Peter promises that same Holy Spirit to all who are baptized.
The same kind of transformation can result in your life.
Little Pentecosts
How do we take advantage of this helper who
was sent to give us courage and power, and the wonderful security
of knowing that what we are doing is right? I guess the first
thing we need to understand is that the Holy Spirit doesn't
always come as dramatically as that day of wind and fire in
the apostles' little room.
You have already received the Holy Spirit during
your Baptism. When your parents show the old Baptism pictures
and talk about how cute you were, they probably don't mention
a wind sweeping through the church, or tongues of fire, I
suspect. Yet we know, through faith, that the Spirit is present.
What we need to figure out is how to tap into all the help
1. Ask for it. Last year a young friend
of mine named Laura was trying to choose which college she
would attend. Her grades were only average, so she felt as
if her choices were limited. But worse than that, her parents
absolutely wanted her to go to a certain school. She was dead
set against it, both because she thought she'd be turned down
and, mostly, because they were so dead set for it!
Laura talked to a few people about her feelings
and our assistant pastor suggested that she should pray to
be guided by the Holy Spirit. Well, she did pray about it
and she visited several colleges, her own first choice as
well as her parents' choice and even a few more. She liked
more than one but she told me that the one she felt most comfortable
at was the one that her folks wanted her to attend.
She told me, "It was weird. I absolutely
didn't want to be there, but I felt like I belonged. It was
like being home." So she decided to go along with her
feeling and she was not only accepted, she did well her first
year and in her sophomore year was elected to a student board
that very rarely chooses underclassmen. While she lacked total
confidence in her decision, many signs now demonstrate its
wisdom. She really believes that the Holy Spirit guided her
choice, and it's not hard to tell if you use the next step.
2. Check out the result. Not everything
that happens is from the Spirit. But usually if it is there
will be some signs. First of all, you'll be happy.
Laura felt as if she belonged at her school even when she
was really fighting being there. She couldn't imagine that
she could be happy there, but she was. Often, you'll feel
at peace. Now, that doesn't mean that nothing will go
wrong. There have been lots of times when exams have made
Laura a wreck, and not all the grades she got left her feeling
calm and peaceful. But overall, she is comfortable with herself
and who she is becoming.
Another good sign is that you'll care about
other people. What you want will become only one among
many things that matter. Laura was able to accept the fact
that her parents had gotten their wish. And on campus she
has become a member of a small faith-sharing community that
offers support and makes being away from home easier. That
support system leads to the next step.
3. Get all the help you can. You need
not be isolated. Even as we begin to reach out to others,
people will reach back in love. Be selective about the people
you look up to. Parents are usually good choices. They gave
you your first values. Maybe you have other relatives you
can trust. How about your pastor or another person in your
parish with religious values? Friends who share your principles
and priorities can be helpful. When you want to talk about
a situation, talk to those kinds of people. One way the Spirit
works is through other people. Finally
4. Trust God. There are times when no
one can understand why things happen, good or bad. But we
have a wonderful gift in our faith. I don't know if my young
friend would have been as happy if she had continued to fight
her parents and had settled for a different school. But I
do know that she turned her decision over to God and she is
a very happy person today.
Expressing Your Belief Is Your Call
Sending the Holy Spirit, and letting us know
that this powerful advocate would be at work in our lives,
was one of the most wonderful things Jesus did. The Holy Spirit
brings us the unconditional love of God and offers us access
to an amazing gift. Having the strength and love of God to
call on whenever we need guidance is what has enabled the
Church to survive for 2,000 years, through periods of persecution,
great leadership, poor leadership, radical change and incredible
While we surpass the boundaries of earth into
outer space, we still face terrible pressures of extreme wealth
and extreme poverty on this planet. But through it all we
have the calm reassurance that when we ask, the Holy Spirit
is present to help us.
As a Catholic Christian, you are heir to this
fabulous gift. Take some time over the next couple of weeks
to notice how many things seem to happen almost without any
reason. Some people call these things coincidences, but could
they be the Holy Spirit at work? Try in your own life to ask
for guidance and be very conscious of the result. Remember,
we don't usually get tongues of fire and gusts of wind, so
sometimes you don't know until later that the Holy Spirit
is present!
Today's world offers many choices. So many people
are trying to tell you things they say will make you happy
and successful. Everybody has something to sell, and you continually
have to decide what to buy. Sometimes it gets very expensive
and you just can't be sure it's worth the price. Isn't it
fantastic that we have been given the completely reliable,
and always available free gift of the Holy Spirit?
On to Confirmation
You have had the gifts of the Holy Spirit all
your life, but you were so young when you received them that
you were really not aware of the number of times you would
need to call on this helper. Such an awareness is the first
call to Confirmation. Now you are old enough to begin to understand.
Now you can call the Holy Spirit by name. Jesus said, "Ask
and it will be given to you" (Matthew 7:7). There's not
a gang or a group, a pill or a program in this world that
comes with that kind of a guarantee!
Sara A. Kirtlink is director of religious
education at St. Francis De Sales Parish in North Kingstown,
Rhode Island. She has prepared students to receive the Sacrament
of Confirmation, and this Youth Update evolved from
her teaching as well as from her graduate studies in religious
education at Providence College.
This issue of Youth Update was
read with great care by Raquel Davis, 15; Kamira Jones, 15;
Shannon Lanier, 14; and Shawn Lanier, 16. All four are members
of St. Agnes Youth Group in Cincinnati, Ohio. St. Agnes's
entire youth group is planning to participate in the August
pilgrimage to Denver for World Youth Day.
Images of the Holy Spirit
The study of the Holy Spirit is called
pneumatology, from the Greek word pneuma which
means breath.
This image of the Holy Spirit as breath
is suggested by several passages in the Old Testament. Check
these passages to consider the ways in which the Holy Spirit
is like breath: Genesis 1:1-2; Genesis 2:7; Ezekiel 37:1-14.
(In some translations, breath has become wind; try substituting
breath in those places to see if it feels right or helpful.)
Is breath the image you have of the Holy
Spirit? Perhaps you are more familiar with the image of a
dove or of tongues of fire. These scriptural passages may
be the origins of those images. Matthew 3:13-17; Acts 2:1-4.
Could you suggest other helpful images?
I can imagine the Spirit as a friend and
a helper, but I'm not sure where the idea of advocate comes
According to Webster, advocate
comes from the Latin word vocare, which means to call.
It is defined as "one who speaks for or supports something."
But the Scriptures weren't written in Latin, and Harpers'
Bible Dictionary says that the original Greek was paraclete,
which would be better translated "called to the side
of." You could say, then, that an advocate is someone
called to take the side of a person or an issue and speak
for that person or issue. Someone has to call the attention
of the advocate to the need. The advocate then calls for action.
You've probably heard of a child advocate being appointed
by a court in an abuse case. The child, or some responsible
person, alerts the authorities to the problem; then the advocate
takes the child's side to make sure the abuse is corrected.
Are the Holy Ghost and the Holy Spirit
the same?
Yes. Before Vatican II, the common term
was Holy Ghost. But the Bible has always used the word Spirit,
and one of the big changes of the council was the emphasis
on the Word of God. We are now encouraged to read the Bible
regularly, and many rites and rituals in the Church are celebrated
more as they were in the beginning. So if there is a choice
of words, we will always favor those used earlier or as stated
in the Bible. We're not talking about Jesus haunting us, but
about his work being continued in the world through the Holy
In the Bible, the coming of the Holy Spirit
enabled the people to "speak in tongues." Why doesn't
that happen now?
Actually, it does. But it is more like
the speaking in tongues mentioned in Paul's first letter to
the Corinthians. He says that speaking in tongues is the least
of the gifts of the Spirit, and that it isn't too helpful
unless someone else has the gift of interpreting what has
been said. That is quite different from the unique experience
the apostles had on Pentecost, when they spoke in their own
language but each listener heard the words in his or her own.
That day the apostles were freed from the fear that had kept
them from telling the world all about Jesus. Many prayer groups
in the Church today are called charismatic because of their
special devotion to the Holy Spirit. Many of these people
speak in tongues after they have received the Spirit.

This is another controversial and frequently misunderstood topic. Many, if not most, cancer patients at least think about their diets and wonder if there are foods that can be added or subtracted that would make a difference in their cancer progression. As far as I know (and I do try to keep up), there is zero proof that anything we eat or don't eat causes cancer or cures cancer or even has an impact on recurrence risk or progression. Certainly there is a great deal known about healthy eating, and the usual advice is the usual advice: meaning eat lots of fruits and vegetables, minimize the amounts of red meat, white flour, sugar. Today's article takes this all a step further with a careful look by the Clinical Practice Committee of the Society of Integrative Oncology at commonly used nutritional supplements.
Many patients do not talk with their oncologists about what they are eating/not eating, and many doctors don't really know much about it. Clearly it is important to be open and honest with your doctor about anything you are ingesting while you are on active cancer treatment, either chemotherapy or radiation therapy. There are some known risks of certain vitamins during this time, and it would be pretty stupid to endure serious cancer treatment while simultaneously doing something that might interfere with its effectiveness.
Here is the abstract from the article from Integrative Cancer Therapies and a link to read more:
Integrating Dietary Supplements Into Cancer Care
Moshe Frenkel, MD1,2,*, Donald I. Abrams, MD3, Elena J. Ladas, MS, RD4,
Gary Deng, MD5, Mary Hardy, MD6, Jillian L. Capodice, LAC, MS7,
Mary F. Winegardner, PA-C, MPAS8, J. K. Gubili, MS5, K. Simon Yeung,
PharmD, MBA, LAc5, Heidi Kussmann, ND, FABNO9, and Keith I. Block, MD10
Many studies confirm that a majority of patients undergoing cancer therapy use self-selected forms of complementary therapies, mainly dietary supplements. Unfortunately, patients often do not report their use of supplements to their providers. The failure of physicians to communicate effectively with patients on this use may result in a loss of trust within the therapeutic relationship and in the selection by patients of harmful, useless, or ineffective and costly nonconventional therapies when effective integrative interventions may exist. Poor communication may also lead to diminishment of patient autonomy and self-efficacy and thereby interfere with the healing response. To be open to the patient's perspective, and sensitive to his or her
need for autonomy and empowerment, physicians may need a shift in their own perspectives. Perhaps the optimal approach is to discuss both the facts and the uncertainty with the patient, in order to reach a mutually informed decision. Today's informed patients truly value physicians who appreciate them as equal participants in making their own health care choices.
To reach a mutually informed decision about the use of these supplements, the Clinical Practice Committee of The Society of Integrative Oncology undertook the challenge of providing basic information to physicians who wish to discuss these issues with their patients. A list of leading supplements that have the best suggestions of benefit was constructed by leading researchers and clinicians who have experience in using these supplements. This list includes curcumin, glutamine, vitamin D, Maitake mushrooms, fish oil, green tea, milk thistle, Astragalus, melatonin, and probiotics. The list includes basic information on
each supplement, such as evidence on effectiveness and clinical trials, adverse effects, and interactions with medications. The information was constructed to provide an up-to-date base of knowledge, so that physicians and other health care providers would be aware of the supplements and be able to discuss realistic expectations and potential benefits and risks.
