The Boy Scouts of America said last week that it would delay until May a decision to reconsider its policy of barring openly gay people, a policy the U.S. Supreme Court upheld in 2000. Today, a Scouting activist endorses an end to the national ban. But a Christian leader argues that the moral absolute of Scouting has been put up for sale
Commenting is open following Jerry Luquire's column.
By Gary B. Roberts
I am fortunate to work at an organization that values inclusion. I attend an Episcopal parish that is open and welcoming to all "sorts and conditions" of people. I am also an Eagle Scout and the father of an Eagle Scout. I've been a Cub Scout leader and an assistant scoutmaster at times in my life. I fully support the Boy Scouts of America.
For the past 10 years, I've been working with the Boy Scouts as the host for Merit Badge University at Kennesaw State University. This is an annual event where over 1,200 Scouts come to campus and participate in over 50 merit badge classes on a Saturday in October. Young men in khaki uniforms and merit badge sashes fill up our campus. Over 60 of my students volunteer to teach merit badge classes, serve as guides and even help park cars.
It's a great event and very effective. Most boys leave having earned at least one merit badge, another step toward a Scout earning his Eagle award.
All of my students are required to have child protection training certificates from the BSA. We practice two-deep adult presence at all times. Safety of the Scouts is one of our primary concerns.
For the past three years, my graduate research assistant, Dennis, has been the primary project manager of this program. Starting almost a year before each event, Dennis has the primary responsibility for making things happen and coordinates between the university and the Boy Scouts. Without his attention to detail, the event would not be successful.
Here's the irony. Dennis, who is 50 and working on his MBA, is a gay man in a committed long-term relationship. Currently, he is not allowed to hold any position with the Boy Scout organization. His work with Merit Badge University falls under the auspices of Kennesaw State University, where we make a good effort to protect our students from any form of homophobia.
Dennis volunteers his time working with an organization that would not allow him to be a member. Why? Because he sees the value of the program and is willing to "take one for the team" in order to make the world just a little bit better.
There are a lot of Dennises in the world. Many times, they receive no recognition and no reward.
I'm embarrassed for the Boy Scouts and their policy of excluding gay and lesbian adult leaders.
The proposed local option approach for Scouting puts the sexual orientation issue where it belongs. It is not, nor has it ever been, a core value of Scouting.
Every Scout leader I talk to about this clearly does not want to see Scouting divided into anti-gay troops or gay-friendly troops; they want to provide the best of Scouting to all boys and their families.
For some sponsoring organizations, sexual orientation may be fundamental. For most of us, it is not.
I just want Dennis to be accepted for who he is and for what he contributes.

About five months ago, I filled this space with an observation that the Boy Scouts of America had the right to make a decision regarding standards of its membership and leadership.
At that time, I agreed that the organization had correctly decided, in our opinion, to continue its exclusive inclusion of heterosexual males.
Recently, the national leadership indicated it was reviewing its 103-year history of providing character development with exclusive heterosexual acceptance, and possibly find a way for homosexual members and leaders to be accepted. This follows intense bullying from homosexual groups in demanding that corporate giving to the Boy Scouts be "outed" and to refuse further support.
The opposition says the Scouts discriminate, which they do. That is, if you apply the positive meaning of discrimination as "to detect or draw distinctions," as defined in Webster's dictionary. It is also known as membership standards.
The Boy Scouts of America's National Executive Board had predicted a review but, with an embarrassingly absurd excuse, the board said, "Due to the complexity of this issue, the organization needs more time for a more deliberate review of its membership policy," until May.
That the stand was even questioned destroyed the integrity of the position. The refusal of this group to walk the walk that they talk gives the enemy a right to say the board is not really sure of its position; that it is saying it may be wrong; that maybe homosexuals camping with heterosexuals and being taught character by those who have heretofore been unacceptable is now somehow not a threat.
To an uninvolved observer, tragically, the 103-year-old moral absolute by the Scouts has gone to the auction block. Money, not morality, rules.
Just for discussion, forget who sleeps with whom and how. Look at what is really at issue here: the distribution of tax-free corporate dollars earned by profit-making corporations, owned by stockholders. If there is excess cash, let's put it to a taxable use that will not cause arguments. These dollars belong to the stockholders, who expect the corporation to return maximum profits. If corporate heads want to support a nonprofit, let them do so as we do, from their personal incomes — a tax loophole that can be closed.
It does not matter now what the board decides in May. There is no additional damage that can be done. They have told the homosexuals, "You just might be right, and we may be wrong." Which is all they wanted.
Scout leaders violated the organization's best-known position and motto. When faced with choosing money or morality, they were not prepared. Perhaps they need to understand the saying, "There is no right way to do a wrong thing."

Back Atchy, whose morals? I assume you consider yourself to have a monopoly? Being black and free used to be against the law. Do you think God is still, if there's been a change, on that side of that question? I'd appreciate you explaining the difference between gay and black when it comes to God.

I understand your position, but it does come with a flaw. You are assuming that there are no gay people who support the scouts, and I am an example of one who does. There are also scouts them selves who are gay. The issue is truly we tell these boys that they are substandard and not good enough to be a scout. The important things that the boys learn from scouting is self-esteem and leadership qualities. It also teaches them to be honest. Don't ask – don't tell creates an environment of lies and deception neither of which is a quality of a good scout. Was I not gay as a child? Yes, I knew when I was young that I was different, but I went through the motions of being what was expected and hurt several people along the way unintentionally.
As far as the rest of you who are worried about openly gay men around young boys, we are open for a reason. My partner and I are often mistaken as straight men, and could blend right without issue. We chose to be open with our friends, family and colleagues because we try to be an example to society. Also, when we keep this secret away from them, do they really know us or just the mask we portray? I value honesty too much not to be honest to the people around me in my life and my community. It is the people who are not open and honest about who they are that are the pedophiles. They are good at wearing the mask and are your neighbors, preachers, youth ministers and yes, sometimes scout masters. No parent says, "I knew he was a pedophile" after their child is molested. Also, keeping open gays out of leadership positions has not removed the problem. Children are still being molested by sick people often by people with children of their own.
Again, I truly support Scouting and will abide by their decision. I will not boycott companies that support them or that withdraw their support. I pray that they reach the right decision soon, as it is indecisiveness that will destroy an institute that I cherish fondly. If I had adopted a child, I would strongly encourage their participation in the program (with or without me as a leader). I support my community troops (boys and girls) by buying, applauding and supporting their activities. I am proud to be part of organizing of the largest inclusive (Boy and Girl Scouts) Merit Badge day in our region. I indirectly touch the lives of nearly 1000 children each year through this event. Children ARE our future, and programs like these and many others are making our future brighter.

And I'm sick and tired of advocates of perversion, defending it by calling those that advocate morals homophobes, intolerant, bigotted, non-inclusive, haters. Try calling God that and see how that works out for you. He made the rules. Don't try to counter by taking bible verses out of context, or comparing old testament examples of barbarous behavior to new testament teachings. Will it be pedophillia or beastiality next. Oh those are illegal. Hmmmm so was homosexuality.

Yes Scrivener. Your comment was the exception with one other, which I should have said. I'm still waffling on having made the comment; but, too much of what I consider hate speech comes from people who have poor English skills.
I disagree with you based on logic. You apparently think gay adults who would participate in Scouting are necessarily pedophiles. Does that mean that all straight males coming in contact with kids necessarily prey on little girls? There's no difference in the logic. If straight males can deal with little girls, gay guys can deal with little boys. Or, please do enlighten me. And this God thing, you might want to take a survey on who believes in what. And because many are religious does that fill the field? No non-religous need apply?
I'm being strident which I don't like to be; but, I'm tired of the religious right, many members of which aren't well educated, co-opting morality and dictating to others. Not charming; but, realistic.

So, Dave, along with calling people hateful, homophobic and fearful you are now putting people down for their English skills. Charming.

"…Scouting divided into anti-gay troops or gay-friendly troops…"
I heard one news report that they're actually considering that option, when you sign your kid up for Scouts you would designate gay troop or straight troop sort of like choosing paper or plastic in the grocery checkout. Having been in Scouts in another day and age that to me is just surreal and bizarre.

I probably shouldn't say this; but, I will – the anti-gay folks commenting here need some remedial spelling, grammar and syntax. I tried to read around the fourth grade writing but then all I was left with was hate.

Tell me why can they not have their own group gays with gays and leave the rest of the boys alone why do they have to infrindge on where they are not wanted. I know that I do not want my boy around it and I will be pulling him out. No one should be pushed into this just because they want it its not right. I am tired of gays saying we have rights and we are going to get them. Well what about the rest of us we dont have any rights. ITS NOT RIGHT what happend to our form of RIGHTS.

Sounds like your lack of grasp on reality is detrimental to your maturing process. There are gay people in the world. Get used to it. They operate in every strata of society. Police officers, teachers, cashiers. They're everywhere! Better retreat to your underground bunker, lest you be forced to interact with one of them.

The plan: spend six weeks attempting first ascents on the huge granite walls rising out of the sea. The trip was a success, Jacob Cook reports:
Our floating base and transport for the trip was provided by the 38' yacht The Cosmic Dancer, with skipper Clive Woodman and partner Angela Lilienthal.

Deputies with the Greenville County Sheriff's Office Homicide Unit said they have charged a man with murder after a West Virginia woman's body was found in a hotel room Sunday.
Deputies said they found the woman's body at the InTown Suites on Mauldin Road after receiving a 911 call just before 9 a.m.
Deputies said their investigation showed that Richard Davis, 57, got into a fight with the victim inside his hotel room. Deputies said Davis and the victim knew each other.
Greenville County Coroner Parks Evans identified the woman as 50-year-old Donna Sue Roberts, of Huntington, WV.
Evans classified Roberts death as a homicide and said she had multiple blunt force injuries, but her cause of death is still pending.
Davis was denied bond on Sunday night. He is being held in the Greenville County Detention Center, Pinciaro said.

So the other night me and my best friend were celebrating my promotion at a bar. We ended up celebrating a bit too much, and we wound up in bed together.
My problem is this: She's a lesbian, and when I asked her how she was dealing with the fact she slept with a guy, she responded, "as long as it was you, I'm fine."
Is she interested in me?

In Response to billybubba (#62883):
Agreed 100%. Clearly you're friends. Clearly you need to talk it over, as mature adults, and without going crazy. She may very well have meant that while she is generally a lesbian, she finds you to be the exception to the rule. The brain is the most erotically charged part of the body, etc. etc. etc.

None of the answers really seem spot-on.
It may be that she figures it was a one time bit of experimenting when drunk, and figures you're a nice enough guy to accept the one-time nature and not retroactively turn the decision into a mistake by making her life difficult or hazarding her reputation. It may be that you're part of Control Group B [xkcd.com]. It may be that she's a LUG now past graduation. It may be that you're good enough with your hands and tongue to have a lesbian consider making exceptions.
...probably not the last. Sorry.
You won't know what's going on in her head without asking. (And if she's conflicted, that won't give a conclusive answer.) It's not impossible she's contemplating how experimentation includes a repeatability component, but don't get your hopes too high. A one-time thing seems most likely.
But if she turns you down, don't forget to ask about when you try to pick up other girls, whether you're allowed to claim to be talented enough to make lesbians reconsider.

I've been in this situation before and the next day when I asked my friend how she felt about what happened, she simply smiled and said "You're sexy and I like you. Besides, there's an exception to every rule!" It actually made our friendship stronger.
Honestly, I'd just ask her outright to see how she felt about it. If she says she does want more occasionally, tell her she doesn't have to get you drunk first. :)

Have you considered the fact that you know she's a lesbian, and you two are friends - you're 'safe', she likely doesn't expect it to become a thing, because she doesn't swing that way, and she knows you. (Or thinks she does?)
I'm asexual, but I'm no virgin. (I fed myself 'you won't know until you try' until I almost bought it.) I honestly did not give the sexual portion of the relationship another thought once I was out of the bed. (Said 'relationship' did not last long. I wasn't even surprised at the time, or upset. Relieved, more like.) Your friend may have a similar 'sexual blind spot' for men: it was a thing that happened, it wasn't bad, but that may be the extent of it.
Just, look, don't buy into 'she slept with me, therefore she is bi', if anyone tries to convince you of that. Sex and sexual attraction are two separate things. If she says she's a lesbian, she's a lesbian. Inserting Tab A into Slot B doesn't prove anything. (For one, strap-ons exist.)

From your wording, or maybe the picture, I took you're concerned she doesn't consider you manly enough to be dangerous. If that's not the case you can ignore this. I would consider it an honor to be trusted as you were. Yes, the two of you were drunk, but she didn't regret the experience the morning after. So congratulations at being a good human being, now continue being a good friend. Don't expect her to jump your boners and don't reject her friendship if she doesn't.

"Interested" is a terribly loaded word. I think she's comfortable around you and that she feels close enough to you at some level that she has few if any regrets about sharing intimacy and pleasure with you.
Also, as much as we try to put labels on things, people's sexuality just won't fit neatly into our nice little named and numbered boxes. Calling any one person lesbian or bisexual or straight does them no justice.
The upshot of these two observations? Just keep on doing what you're doing, being a good friend. If something emerges out of it, SERENDIPITY! If not, you have a good friend with whom you have pleasant memories of a shared night. Win-win.

Watch Kevin Smith's "Chasing Amy". Just don't imitate the actions of Holden (Ben Affleck).
Being in love with and sexually attracted to a person are not mutually inclusive. Sounds like you're at least one for two, though.

Bella's P.O.V (Present)
I was awoken from the screaming nightmare that I was having by the sound of tapping on my bedroom window. I had expected it to be Jacob, letting me know that he would be the one running around the outskirts as a wolf. I stumbled over to the window and pulled open the curtains.
The moon was full so I didn't need to switch on a light, there was enough light so that I could see what I was doing. I pushed open the window and let Jacob inside out the cold. Not that he would feel it. Jacob had managed to quietly sneak up the side of the house and in throw the open window making it look easy.
Something was different about him though and I could quite put my finger on what it was. For starters he was fully dressed: as in trousers, jumper with the hood pulled up and shoes. Normally he would just turn up in a pair of shorts. "Jake. You ok?" I whispered in hopes that he had heard me. Instead of answering he pulled down his hood to revile that it wasn't Jacob, but the one person I would have never expected.
I let out a small gasp and hauled myself at my visitor. But for some reason was wrong once I had done it. I began to pull away but he pulled me back towards him and rested his head on top of mine. I pulled away again and this time he let me. But he trailed the back of his cold hand across my check. At his touch I instantly went red. "Jasper" I said pulling further away but this time he stepped as I did. "What are you doing here?" I asked again. He pulled me back into his arms and whispered "I came back for you" was all he said as he held me in his arms as I went limp.

The apartment was great. I loved the 3rd floor one bedroom apt. The office staff was always very nice.

The reason I left Blvd @ 4201 was strictly neighbor related. I had a very disrespectful neighbor who lived below me.

"MAZDA SPRIT" by LARRY THE JUDGE Shepherdsville ky. on 11/18/2011. Trim: 2008 Mazda CX-9 Grand Touring AWD, Owned 3 years.
Pros: so far i like everything about this car; i bought it new in 08 and have 20000 miles ; keep it in garageand have oil changed every 3000 miles. wax entire car 2 times a year and keep it spotless under the hood and under chassis. a car like this is worth taking care of . everyone that sees it thinks its brand new and thats because its taken such good care of. my gas mileage around town is around 18 mpg and on the road 26 mpg. very pleased with this because it is a fairly heavy car.did not buy for just mileage but mainly for safety; my family is worth more than just a few extra miles per gallon!!
Cons: like me its getting older each day but its holding up better than i am
Overall review: best car ever....i would buy another one if i was in market ; not there now though..

capitolprostitute replied to your post: WILLARD MITT ROMNEY. STOP INTERRUPTING THE MEDIATOR, YOU HORSE'S ASS.
im a moderate republican and even i yelled OMFG MITT MOVE ON
Correction: that should have read "DANCING HORSE'S ASS."
Asked by capitolprostitute
One time when I was really little my mom made little colorful round pillows and attached straps to them so they fit on us like sandwich boards, then silk-screened the letter M onto them, and my sisters and I went as M&Ms.
capitolprostitute replied to your post: OMG U MADE CATNIS TOO BROWN AND HER BOOBS R 2 BIG SHE'S SUPPOSED TO BE EMACIATED GAWD (my use of the word emaciated kills the whole anon trolling bit huh…oh well)
bewbs right obviously. actually the fandom's big debate over JLaw was that she was too curvy to play Katnis who probably wouldn't have very large boobs or hips since near starvation at 11 years old tends to stunt development and she would be skinny
And what they really should have been debating about is the whole "pale-skinned blonde white woman playing an olive-skinned dark-haired woman of color" thing
I never understood the "Jennifer Lawrence isn't skinny" aspect of the debate, though, mostly because if Jennifer Lawrence is where we draw the line for "not skinny," there's something really wrong with our system of gauging that.
Asked by capitolprostitute
Bahahaha, I was actually expecting anons like this, even though Katniss is super skinny in that drawing and the books actually never make mention of her boobs (although it can be safely assumed that she has them) and she is dark-skinned in the books
Also, anons spell it "bewbs"
capitolprostitute replied to your post: theladyweaver reblogged your photoset:…
i love when you call out fallacies
The best part of it is that I usually turn around and immediately giggle at the word "fallacies" because it sounds like "phallus."
Pretty much the reason I quit the debate team.
And the reason I joined the improv team.
capitolprostitute replied to your post: iloafpeetajawsh reblogged your photoset: Sarcastic…
omg can you imagine sassy gay cinna coming in right before katniss and peeta eat nightlock?? look at your life, look at your choices
Believe it or not, that was one of Katniss' better decisions. There was a situation where only one person could walk out of there alive and her problem solving got two people out of there.
Maybe better advice would be "stop considering Gale's run-away plans, they are the ravings of a madman," or maybe "stop getting drunk with Haymitch, the last person who tried to solve their problems that way grew up to be Haymitch."
Although really "stop listening to Gale" is maybe advice that should have been common sense. It's been two years since I read "Mockingjay" and I still haven't forgiven him.
capitolprostitute replied to your post: Viola Davis for superman
eyeroll because I told you about that weeks ago
I thought "The Ender's Game Movie" was a running joke about something that everyone wanted but that never seemed to be made, like "the next Duke Nukem game" or "The Artemis Fowl Movie" or "Sherlock Series 3."
Asked by capitolprostitute
Maybe not Superman, but she'd make an AMAZING Lois Lane. Plus, she's going to be in the Ender's Game movie, which I just found out was being made and am suddenly really excited about!

DALLAS (AP) - A tour of the George W. Bush Presidential Library and Museum begins in a bright area representing his early domestic agenda. With one turn, visitors find themselves in a darkened room surrounded by chilling reminders of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks.
This contrast symbolizing Bush's abrupt shift in priorities less than eight months into his first term. It's among the most poignant exhibits at a museum that also chronicles the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq, Hurricane Katrina, the Florida recount and various other events.
The George W. Bush Presidential Center, which includes the library and museum along with 43rd president's policy institute, will be dedicated Thursday. Bush's father, George H.W. Bush, and all the living presidents are expected to attend. It opens to the public May 1.

A west suburban Aurora man is accused of groping a 12-year-old girl while she slept over at a friend's home Friday into Saturday night in the Gresham neighborhood.
George N. Oliver, 59, of the 500 block of West Fifth Avenue in Aurora, was arrested after police were told he fondled and caressed the girl while she was in the home in the 8400 block of South Vincennes, according to police reports.
The girl was sleeping over at a friend's house at the time. Oliver is dating the friend's grandmother, the prosecutor said. He was "highly intoxicated" at the time of the assault, according to police reports.
Cook County Judge Israel Desierto ordered Oliver, who was charged with predatory criminal sexual assault, held in lieu of $200,000 bail.

Ocean Blue products are manufactured and distributed by Sancilio and Company, Inc. (SCI), a research-based biopharmaceutical company located in Palm Beach County, Florida. Since being founded by Frederick D. Sancilio, Ph.D. in 2007, they have focused on the development, manufacture and commercialization of Omega-3-based products that incorporate highly refined Omega-3 fatty acids and utilize our proprietary Advanced Lipid Technologies.

Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 mg. - 60 Softgels
Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 mg. is made from 100% American fish oils. Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 mg. is the most potent Omega-3 fatty acid supplement on the market, with or without a prescription. Each capsule of Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 contains 1,200 mg of fish oil that has been refined from Peruvian anchovies by repeated molecular distillation. Natural citrus oil means no "fish" burps. Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 has no smelly fish taste, does not contain any gluten, sugar, lactose or dyes. Their products are made in their US GMP manufacturing facility and tested by a US FDA registered pharmaceutical laboratory in the United States of America. Each serving of Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 provides 2,100 mg of Eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), Docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) and other Omega-3 essential fatty acids. EPA and DHA, as found in Ocean Blue Professional 2100, may contribute to the maintenance of:
Supportive, but not conclusive research shows that the consumption of EPA and DHA may reduce the risk of coronary heart disease.
Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 Information:
Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 contains the highest amount of Omega-3 essential fatty acids of any product available, with or without a prescription. Each serving provides 2,100 milligrams of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA), docosapentaenoic acid (DHA) and other Omega-3 essential fatty acids. Hundreds of scientific studies suggest that EPA plays a significant role in cardiovascular health, including lowering triglycerides and lowering the risk of heart attack and stroke.
Benefits of Omega-3 Fatty AcidsOmega-3 fatty acids have been the center of much debate lately in the press. Research has shown that omega-3 fatty acids primarily help boost heart health by lowering triglyceride levels. There are many incorrectly managed studies of omega-3 fatty acids that place doubt in everyone's mind of their true effectiveness. Books, articles, blogs, TV shows discussing this very topic have exploded into the limelight. Let's review the benefits of omega-3s. Omega-3s are EFAs (essential fatty acids) that work to assist with many medical conditions people face today. Omega-3s are needed in our daily diets for our bodies to work normally. DHA, EPA and ALA (docosahexanoic acid, eicosapentaenoic acid and alpha-linolenic acid) are not made in the body so we need to get them from the foods we eat. EPA and DHA are found in certain fish and plants. EPA and DHA are obtained from fish oil, the purest forms coming from fish that feed on algae.
Studies show strong evidence that omega-3s go beyond than heart health alone. Check out some of these research findings:
Research on omega-3 fatty acids is ongoing in several health areas. Doctors recommend fish consumption as a good source of omega-3 fatty acids. Anchovies, sardines, bluefish, herring, mackerel, salmon, wild salmon, tuna, sturgeon and lake trout are all great choices for getting a high concentration of omega-3s. However, for those people who cannot eat fish, don't like fish or are vegetarians, fish oil supplements with high levels of EPA and DHA are excellent alternatives. Experts recommend at least 1 gram (1,000 mg) of DHA and EPA daily for those with heart issues. People can take doses ups to 4 grams per day. Please consult with your physician before starting any type of fish oil supplement. You may be provided with specific recommendations depending on your health and other medications you take.
Where are Ocean Blue products made?All Ocean Blue products are made in Riviera Beach, Florida. The Ocean Blue brand is owned and all Ocean Blue products are manufactured by Sancilio & Company, Inc. (SCI), a privately owned and operated biopharmaceutical company. SCI operates research, development, laboratory and production facilities in a 40,000 square foot cGMP factory. SCI is registered as a drug manufacturer with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and with the State of Florida. As such, its facilities are subject to periodic inspection by regulatory authorities.
Can I use Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 as a substitute to the more expensive Omega-3 product prescribed by my physician?Their Omega-3 2100 is not a generic version of any prescription product. It does, however, contain amounts of the Omega-3 fatty acids EPA and DHA that are similar, but higher, than those found in the only FDA-approved prescription Omega-3 currently available. You should ask your health care provider to review your medical needs and budget to help you decide what product is best for you.
Do I need a prescription to buy Ocean Blue products?No. While Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100 is only available "behind the counter" from your pharmacist or your health care provider, a prescription is not required to purchase it.
What is the difference between Ocean Blue products and other Omega-3 and fish oil supplements?Most fish oil is typically made from the by-products of fish processed for food and other uses. This oil is unrefined and unconcentrated, resulting in very low levels of Omega-3 fatty acids and high levels of saturated fats, which are actually detrimental to your health. This is the oil that is used in most Omega-3s and fish oil supplements. Ocean Blue products are made from a highly-refined, ultra-pure pharmaceutical grade Omega-3 that is produced exclusively for use in our products. The result is that Ocean Blue products contain the highest amount of EPA and DHA Omega-3 fatty acids available, with or without a prescription. In addition, our products contain zero saturated fats. We encourage you to compare the labels on Ocean Blue products with that of any other Omega-3, krill oil or fish oil supplement available.
Why is prescription Omega-3 so expensive compared to Ocean Blue products?Obtaining FDA approval of a product is expensive. In addition to the cost of developing the product, clinical trials must be conducted and, once the product is approved by the FDA, significant sums must be spent to market the product to the physicians who will prescribe it. In order for the company that owns this product to recoup these costs and obtain a profit on the product, the company must charge a price that is substantially higher than non-FDA approved products, even when the products are very similar in strength and efficacy.
Why do most Omega-3 and other fish oil supplements have such an unpleasant smell?Most Omega-3 and fish oil supplements are simply mixtures of unrefined fish fat, which can turn rancid and create an unpleasant odor. To eliminate the odor, the manufacturing process requires repeated distillation of fresh fish oil, which removes the fats that cause the unpleasant odor. In refined pharmaceutical grade oils, such as those used in our Ocean Blue products, the oil is molecularly distilled at least 26 times, resulting in a product that has virtually no smell or taste. They also use a natural orange oil for flavoring to eliminate any fishy smell or burps.
About Ocean Blue ProfessionalOcean Blue products are manufactured and distributed by Sancilio and Company, Inc. (SCI), a research-based biopharmaceutical company located in Palm Beach County, Florida. Since being founded by Frederick D. Sancilio, Ph.D. in 2007, they have focused on the development, manufacture and commercialization of Omega-3-based products that incorporate highly refined Omega-3 fatty acids and utilize our proprietary Advanced Lipid Technologies. Their Advanced Lipid Technologies include the formulation of an appropriate ratio of eicosapentaenoic acid (EPA) to docosahexaenoic acid (DHA), as well as a combination of molecular distillation, winterization, decolorization and deodorization (smell and taste masking) techniques.
Their Florida-based research laboratories are staffed with highly qualified and experienced scientists, and their fully-operational cGMP production facilities enable them to manufacture products that are then sold through their domestic and international distribution channels. The SCI team currently consists of approximately 50 employees, over ten of whom hold a PhD or an MD.
They began commercial distribution of their first Omega-3 product, Ocean Blue Professional Omega-3 2100, in the United States in 2009 and in Italy in 2010. While Omega-3 2100 does not require a prescription, it is only sold "behind the counter" in pharmacies and by doctors in their offices.

But, then, maybe this all makes sense. Since Facebook is so popular, it's not entirely surprising that they serve one out of every twelve online ads. Even better? At least some proportion of their on-site CPC ads lead to another page on the site—so they're getting money and traffic.
This isn't a recent development, of course—we've all seen ads to "Become a Fan" of something on Facebook. But as smart as it sounds to make your advertisers pay for generating traffic to your site, the underlying logic is pretty much a stroke of genius:
Facebook is an Internet unto itself.
Facebook has long been accused of being a "walled garden"—with its fan pages, apps and other utilities, FB is almost a subset of the offerings of the Internet. If your brand is prominent enough, you're on Facebook (or you should be!). Driving paid traffic from a personal page (personal) to a branded page only makes sense on that kind of paradigm.
Of course, that kind of advertising is good for advertisers, too, or they wouldn't do it. JCPenney went from 22,000 fans to 500,000 fans with these advertisements in the run-up to back-to-school shopping (though Bloomberg didn't say if JCP saw increased revenue from this).
And something seems to be working for FB, too. Last month, Bloomberg said the most popular social network in the world should post at least $500 million in revenue this year.
What do you think? Is Facebook a subset of the Internet, and is internal paid advertising a natural extension of that mentality? Can Facebook sustain this kind of revenue?

Avril Lavigne
Before she became the anti-Hilary Duff, Avril Lavigne was your average Canadian kid, getting in fights in the hockey rink, making extra cash as a lawn landscaper and teaching herself how to play guitar. Her first manager discovered her singing at 14 in a bookstore. At 15, she won the chance to sing a duet with Shania Twain at one of her stadium shows in a radio contest. By 16, she was signed to a $1.25 million contract by L.A. Reid, had dropped out of high school and moved to New York to record. Although she was first imagined as a country star, pop punk rock would become her signature sound and it was masterfully showcased on her 2002 debut Let Go, which included singles "Complicated" and "Sk8er Boi," sold more than 13 million copies and earned her five Grammy nods. She released her sophomore effort, Under My Skin, in 2004, the same year that she took her relationship with Sum 41 singer Deryck Whibley. They were engaged a year later in Venice, married in July 2006 in Montecito, Calif., and filed for divorced in 2009. He still worked with her on fourth album Pink Crust. Lavigne has occasionally acted as well. She voiced an opossum in "Over The Hedge" and made her feature debut in 2006's "Fast Food Nation." Following two years as "Hills" star Brody Jenner's "Girlfriend," she was swept off her feet and down the aisle by Nickelback frontman Chad Kroeger, who proposed after a six-month courtship. They married in July 2013.

New York model Nick Snider was arrested in Arkansas for public drunkeness, disorderly conduct, and offering to perform oral sex on cops if they let him go! Read more on Nick Snider's arrest below!
Prada model Nick Snider made his drunken arrest much worse by offering sexual favors to police if they made his charges go away.
"I am a very famous model," Snider protested officers were arresting him.
Then Snider offered oral sex on the corrections officer who booked him into the Independence County Jail. Nick allegedly offered, "I'll suck your dick and balls if you let me go."
Snider, 21, didn't have any interest in his offer but was charged with attempting to influence a public servant.
Nick Snider was named one of the world's fifth most successful male models by Forbes in 2008.
Nick's modeling agency, VNY, are standing by their model but hinted that he was quite a handful.
"The staff at VNY Model Management on a number of occasions has offered help to Nick," head honcho Lana Winters Tomczak said in a statement. "We are here to support him in his troubled times and will work with both Nick and his family to get him the help he deserves."
Snider's mugshot photo shows him wearing a black Matix Snowboard T-shirt with the words "Hey babe, when we chillaxin?"
But why was Snider in Arkansas of all places? Nick was reportedly visiting a girl named Deanna Castro in Batesville, when he got extremely drunk.
Deputies reported that Snider was so drunk they had to hold him up and that he accused Caster of "giving her kids beer."
"While in transport to the County Jail, Mr. Snider kept trying to get me to stop the car and let him go," Deputy Brian Luetschwager reported.
The deputy said Snider offered to perform oral sex if he'd let him go. The model was "banging on the window" when he was placed in the jail's drunk tank.
Snider pleaded not guilty to the three misdemeanor counts and is free on $780 bond. But Nick must appear in court in Arkansas on February 17.

Research Interests
Most of my work takes place at the crossroads between critical theory, discourse analysis, political philosophy and economics. The main focus of my research is contemporary political culture (expressed in novels, journalism, philosophy, or film), with a specific interest in the cultural construction of the middle or centre as a regulative political ideal. I'm in the process of putting together a monograph on The Economist magazine, one which attempts to write a cultural history of the text since 1945, and will move on from there to a long-planned book dealing with a much broader genealogy of the political centre in Western cultural and philosophical discourse. I love film -- particularly those of Alfred Hitchcock--as well as good Korean and Sichuanese food. I spent two years teaching at the University of Bonn in Germany and a half year at the Shanghai University of Finance and Economics where I continue collaboration as a Research Fellow. I'm interestested in working with graduate students located anywhere in the domain of contemporary theory, but will also very happily work alongside students with sets of interest not explicitly or only partially linked into this tradition.

The Promotion dancers performed at the Wildcat's outing against the Idaho State University Vandals Thursday night. The dancers perform at every home game during halftime. RYAN SHUPETHE SIGNPOST Actor pushes conflict resolution By Wendee S. Butters Signpost staff writer Diversity is the key to human existence, and an understanding of society comes only wi th a n edu-calion, said actor Edward James Olmos Thursday a t Convoca tions. That education involves all members of the community, including parents and college students who can teach children by example how to deal with society, he said. Nearly 1,200 people filled the Austad Auditorium in the Val. A Browning Center to hear Olmos speak. Job Corps employees, local area high school students and Weber State University faculty and students heard Olmos' plea: "We are in the same gang." Olmos explained his line of ancestry and how every "color of people" have been a part of his heritage. Healso emphasized how people are different even from their own brothers and sisters. "When we start to see someone else as different, we need to look at our own brothers and sisters and realize they are also different. We are all as diverse as our own thumb print and that's what makes us all the same," Olmos said. This diversity creates our environment and must be understood. I Ie said today's society is unlike any group of "human species" seen before because of the difficulties it is facing. "A problem has attacked our society, and we must look at it.

' i MATT THOMAS JHh SIUNPOST Actor Edward James Olmos gives a thumbs up to a record crowd Thursday at Convocations in the Austad Auditorium. Convocations is children killing children," he said. Violence is a highly complex problem that giant minds have under- stood, he said. Many think of stopping violence as a judicial problem, but it is a disease. "It is a health problem, a learned behavior that we must attack. I don't wait for my child to get polio before I give him or her a vaccination," said the veteran actor of the popular '80s TV show, "Miami Vice." He encourages all people to "infuse preventional values" into children in society. It is everyone's responsibility, and the success of society depends on the ability to resolve problems, he said. Olmos said he believes the so-lutionmustdeal with conflict resolution and must start before a child enters the - home. He said parents must re solve things without violence to create an example for a child to follow. College students can also play a role in education by serving as mentors to children in junior high and high school, he said. Olmos said this type of activity is the most effective method in helping society."Everyone that gives of themselves receives," he said. "It will build self esteem and a life may change as a result of onefriendship."

|Weber State University
|Associated Students of Weber State University; A generous grant from the Utah State Library and the Institute of Museum and Library Services.
|Weber's current student newspaper, the Signpost, first appeared on September 29, 1937. For two years prior to that time, campus news was disseminated via announcements posted on a bulletin board known as the "Signpost". As a result, the masthead of the first issue of the paper itself featured a rudimentary wooden sign with the title spelled out in rustic-looking letters. Over the years the paper has been published continuously, though the look, size and style has changed several times.

Comments about Avery 05468:Neon Green, Color Coding Labels - Laser - 3/4, 1008 ct:
I use these to label that AR Books we have in the house. They are printed with AR and all thefirst letter of the kids names. This way they can check by their name when they have taken an AR test at school. It helps so they are not reading the same book. Once all of the kids have read the book I know that it can be donated.

Rich and Josh look back at Hurricane Ivan 10 years later.
Spurred on by the belief that some on the Alabama State University Board of Trustees do not take them seriously, some ASU students joined Student Government Association President Kyle Burney Friday evening in issues a list of questions and demands.
Burney said his statement was being made on behalf of students in response to actions of the Board. The SGA president read from a prepared statement and did not take media questions.
In his statement, Burn asked for answers to three questions and made four demands of the Board.
The questions:
The demands:
SGA President Burney said that if the demands were not met by Wednesday, Dec. 5, 2012 students are prepared to engage in further actions. Burney did not provide specifics on what further actions might include.
The statement was prefaced with Burney's remark that those enrolled at ASU are "students", or young adults. The statement appears to have been in response to statements by Chairman Elton Dean, made after Friday morning's meeting, in which he called students "children" multiple times.
Silver remains on paid adminstrative leave and the Board opted not to pursue immediate further action regarding his employment out of respect for the Silver family. Dr. Silver's mother died Thursday evening.
The board meeting did end with approval of two agenda items: The naming of an interim president and the decision to order an audit of the university's finances.

1. Cheap! Any $1 make up compact that doesn't test on animals (especially if it's vegan) is worth a try!
2. Coverage ain't bad. It's in between light coverage and medium coverage to me. A bit buildable, but not to full coverage.
1. Poor color selection. The only available colors at my Target were Ivory and Light Beige. These are their 2 lightest shades in the collection. Ivory was too light for me, and Light Beige was too dark. It was a pain in the but trying to use both of them to get the "me" color. But I did it.
2. Powdery. I'll bet you're thinking, "Duh," but what I mean is that if you swirl, dip, or anything your brush into the compact, powder is sitting on top of the product. It's not very buttery. So once you're finished applying the powder, odds are that a bunch of product in powder form that's become separated from the pressed compact will spill everywhere. Messy. Wasteful.
3. Although it's supposed to be clarifying, this powder totally clogged up my pores and broke me out. It took about 3-4 days for my skin to have a negative reaction. The first day, nothing changed. Second day, my blemishes were healing! Third day, my blemishes healed a little more, but my skin was over-producing oil. Fourth day, I had a bunch of new break outs. I continued acquiring more and more pimples until finally I put this make up away and my face went back to normal.
4. Not a lot of product in the packaging. But hey, for one dollar, that's not a big deal.
2 lippies stands for "didn't like it", while 1 lippie for me is "hated it" and three lippies is "it's okay".
Packaging didn't get a 5 because I think it would be nice if they included a mirror. "But it's only a one dollar compact!" you say, and then I reply, "Well hey, if L.A. Color's one dollar compact can have a mirror, why not this one?"

elf seems really opposed to creating products in lighter shades that don't have intense yellow undertones! I have fair caucasian skin and nearly everything elf makes shows up dark and yellow on me, including products in shades 'ivory' and 'porcelain.' this powder isn't terrible but it makes my foundation look a little less even. also be careful not to drop the compact this stuff comes in! it's pretty fragile. overall not a great product, but it's friggin $2, what do you expect

This is definitely not for me. I have dry skin and this just makes my face look cakey, dry, patchy, etc. It's very matte, so it might be better for oily skins. It's quite messy and crumbles quite easily. The packaging is cheap looking and breaks very easily.

Okay, recently got another E.L.F haul :D So, I decided to try this product and find out what all the fuss was about and now I know. This has become a powder I use on a daily basis. The problem is, I've already hit pan... I just LOVE it. Mines in ivory, A LOT darker than it looks, so if you have slightly pale skin make sure it's the shade you go for (as it's the lightest). I have oily skin and I own dewy foundations so I like to keep them Matte so pressing this onto a pad and then applying to my face just is amazing. Honestly trying this, and Rimmel Stay Matte, I wouldn't bother with another high end Powder.

This is a good powder but it isn't the best of coarse. It does keep my makeup in place and my face matte. However I think there should be more shades. I got the lightest shade ivory and it matches my skin tone nicely, but I'm light skinned but not pale so I think there should a shade or two that's lighter than "ivory" (which isn't ivory at all) a few more really dark shades would be nice too.

I am a big fan of E.L.F. products so for $1 I thought I would try this powder. I got it in 'light beige' although I have quite tan skin but the color worked perfectly. I used it to set my liquid foundation. The powder was just okay, until I dropped it. I used it for a few days without re-pressing it and the texture just completely changed. It was so dense and became cakey so I just through it out since it was so cheap no big deal. I replaced it with a powder that I could use as a light light coverage foundation or use to set liquid foundations.

Love this powder! I've been using this for about a year now, and honestly, when I first started using it, I thought that I was gonna run out of it in no time, but I've hardly made a dent in it. I got this in light beige, thinking that it was gonna be too light for my medium toned complexion, but it's actually a great match! I love using it with both a brush and a puff. I think applying it with a powder brush gives a more light application, while applying it with a puff gives a whole lot more coverage and matifys super well! For a dollar, you really can't go wrong, and it works just as well as some of the higher-end powders out there! I'd recommend it to anybody out there looking for a great all-around face powder!

Age: 44-55 Skin: Very Oily, Fair, Warm Hair: Brunette, Straight, Fine Eyes: Brown
I picked up the powder in Ivory on a kind of whim; I figured, for a dollar, why not just try it? Well, I am very pleasantly surprised. Yes, the packaging is cheap plastic, yes, the puff isn't the most luxurious. But people, it is a dollar! What are you expecting? The shade, Ivory, is a surprisingly good match for my approximately NC15 coloring. It has a yellow tone to it that goes well with my skin. I find the puff adequate for its purpose. Using the puff gives heavier coverage than dusting it on with a brush. Actually, I find that, using the puff, I can almost use it as a powder foundation. The finish is nicely matte, holds back the oil for about as long as any other powder I've ever used. There is no scent, which is great. Overall, a great little item. I suppose there are likely to be a few shades that aren't great at this price point. Then again, at much higher prices, there are bad shades as well. I have found Clinique foundation and powder shades to be WAAAAY too peach or orange, almost across the whole gamut of their product lines. If you can find a shade that suits you in this E.L.F. line, it's a great steal.

Age: 30-35 Skin: Combination, Dark, Warm Hair: Brunette, Relaxed, Medium Eyes: Brown
This is a really good powder and a steal too! I have this in the shade "Spice". I had this for a while and I began using this when I misplaced my setting powder.
This sets foundation nicely without giving an overly matte and chalky finish when used with a fluffy powder brush. It does not settle into lines and adds a little coverage as well. It is relatively small and finishes pretty quickly. I dont use the puff and the packaging is not much to talk about. Very basic- Cheap plastic, puff included with no mirror. But I still appreciate it to some extent because it is small and compact for clutch purse.
I'm not too loyal with pressed powders but I'm positive I'll get this again because of the quality given for price.

I love this powder. I use it to set my liquid foundation. It works very well and lasts for a long period of time. It isn't too cakey or greasy. The best thing about this product is that it was only 1 dollar! I will be buying this product again.

The charges are serious and should be fully investigated. But we should not allow the fight over these allegations to distract us from the real scandal: our government's embrace of torture and cruelty.
In 2009, President Obama commendably signed an executive order banning torture. But his decision to "look forward, not backward" has meant that the moral wound inflicted on our country by its turn to "the dark side" continues to fester. We have not fully reckoned with that period in our recent past, and it shows.
Public support for the crime of torture has increased under President Obama. Perhaps this could have been anticipated. "Prohibiting" torture while at the same time failing to investigate it or sidestepping the painful issue of legal accountability constitutes a contradictory policy and conveys doubt and confusion. As Churchill said in a famous 1936 speech to the Commons using language all too applicable here: "So they go on in strange paradox, decided only to be undecided, resolved to be irresolute, adamant for drift, solid for fluidity, all-powerful to be impotent."
That could begin to change — if the Intelligence Committee votes to declassify and make public its comprehensive, 6,000-plus-page study on the CIA torture program. President Obama recently reclaimed leadership on this issue and said publicly, for the first time, that he is "absolutely committed" to declassifying the report "so that the American people can understand what happened in the past and that can help guide us as we move forward." It may have come late, but the president is finally moving towards legal and policy clarity and deserves our support.
The study builds on what we already know. Did we torture? Indisputably. We did so directly and by outsourcing torture through extraordinary renditions. Anyone who reads accounts of the interrogation of Abu Zubaydah and other detainees cannot fail to conclude that his treatment meets the legal definition of torture.
Did we also authorize and apply cruel, inhuman, and degrading treatment? Undoubtedly. Although there is a legal distinction between torture and other forms of cruelty, the infliction of cruelty is no more legally — or morally — acceptable than torture. Fidelity to human rights principles and our own laws requires that the application of all pain — not only severe pain — be prohibited.
By applying cruelty and torture, did we weaken our defenses in the war on terror? Unquestionably. In the defense of our nation we traditionally pursue two strategic objectives equally and simultaneously: We defend our people, and we defend our values. We justifiably take pride in being "the land of the free and home of the brave" because we are prepared to take risks and, if necessary, take casualties in defending our freedoms. When we tortured, we compromised our values.
And what did we gain? Americans are less safe as a result of our government's embrace of cruelty. Every military officer I have spoken with on this issue — including dozens of Service Chiefs and other four-star generals and admirals — describes the authorization of cruel interrogations as contemptible and contrary to U.S. security interests. The reason is obvious. It compromised key alliances and undermined our ability to sharply distinguish ourselves from our adversaries, who use our actions to gain members and sympathizers.
Those are the facts, and because they are facts, the Senate report will confirm them. But there are large gaps in our knowledge that the report will fill. On Tuesday, Senator Feinstein said the report has evidence of abuse "far different and far more harsh" than those disclosed by the CIA. Previously, she said that the report shows that abuse "was far more systematic and widespread than we thought."
The wound left by official torture will not heal until we assemble the full historical record, grasp the full consequences of our actions, and address the unavoidable issue of accountability. Release of the torture report would be the essential first step toward the kind of public reckoning that might allow the country to move past the era of official cruelty.
You wouldn't know this from Hollywood movies like Zero Dark Thirty or from the memoirs of torture proponents, but many senior leaders in the U.S. government took a stand in real time against the policies of cruelty. We did so with the belief that this was both the right and wise thing to do and that history would vindicate this stand.
But history doesn't merely happen; to be captured, it has to be written and published. Without delay, members of the Senate Select Committee on Intelligence should vote to declassify the report, and President Obama should rebuff any efforts to block its release.
