French Senate backs same-sex marriage, due to become law by summer
France's Senate upper house voted in favor of same-sex marriage on Friday, paving the way for it to enter law after street marches rallied hundreds of thousands of demonstrators both for and against it.
The move is France's most important social reform since the 1981 abolition of the death penalty and was a keynote campaign pledge by President Francois Hollande's ruling Socialists.
But it is opposed by social conservatives in the majority Catholic country, and by many French Muslims and evangelical Christians.
The bill, approved by a show of hands with minor amendments, returns in May to the National Assembly lower house where the Socialists have an absolute majority. After final approval there, it is due to take effect mid-year.
France joins 11 other countries including Belgium, Portugal, the Netherlands, Spain, Sweden, Norway and South Africa where same-sex marriage is legal.

- Seashore is the only school that offers an entire campus for preschool and another for pre-kindergarten with bright classrooms, computer and science labs, indoor heated pools, gyms, state of the art gymmastics equipment and playgrounds.
- Our Full-Day Kindergarten includes extras most schools do not offer at this level like foreign language, hands-on experiments in our science lab, computer lab, year-round swim lessons and an advanced reading program with proven results. By mid year most children read on their own and by the end of the year can recognize nearly 1,000 words.
- In addition to a strong academic curriculum, aspiring young actors can take drama, dance and singing lessons needed to put on professionally produced full-scale productions. As part of their program they go to Broadway plays and take workshops with stars in the shows they see.
- Seashore offers an award winning education. We were the only middle school in the USA to win a 2013 First Place Gold Circle Award from Columbia University's Scholastic Press Association and 2011, 2012 and 2013 Silver Medals from judges at the Ivy League's Graduate School of Journalism for the student newspaper Seashore Student Views.

- In addition to its exceptional education, Seashore offers a wholesome, family environment free of the typical middle school experimenting that can derail lives. Students develop close friendships with children who are so focused on athletics, the arts and hobbies ranging from horseback riding to fencing, dance, singing, community and professional theater and competitive skating that veering off course is not even on their radar.
- Seashore graduates consistently gain acceptance to the high schools of their choice including top ranked Biotech, High Tech, MAST, Communications, Allied, CBA and Red Bank Regional High School's Specialized Academies.
- For parents convenience, we offer free door-to-door transportation, free childcare from 7:30-9a.m. for those who have to be at work early, extended care until 6p.m. and a 12-month plan that covers school, camp and everything inbetween at a substantial savings.>

School Reviews
- June 07, 2014 - My 3 year old twin boys started at Seashore in 2014 and would rate the experience as above excellent. In the 1/2 day program, they are busy learning the entire morning with science, swimming, arts and crafts, gym, music and more. The "family" atmosphere is so welcoming and easy going. All this, and having the bus picked up and dropped off everyday makes it that much easier. - Posted by Parent
- September 21, 2013 - LOVE LOVE LOVE the school! We have 2 enrolled and on on the way! Excellent reputation for academics and offerings, it''s summer camp program is second to none. Compared to any public or private school in the area, we felt that this was really the best possible education available for our children in Monmouth County. Have also considered to nearby Ranney, and found nothing lacking in comparison but the higher cost of tuition. Academics and offerings included in the general curriculum are superior to any of the schools we could find in the area. Children are challenged to their individual ability which was very important to us, and not held back because the class is limited to teaching to the state curriculum or a state test. Many of the children who attend here are very bright. Science lab and teacher- very impressive. Drama, swim, Spanish, yoga- all part of the weekly curriculum during the school day- these are not after school actives. Because of the drama program, not only can many of the children here sing, act, and dance- but I doubt that many of them will have a problem speaking in public as they become older. The children become so accustomed to being on stage performing, it''s almost second nature to be in front of an audience. The principal is an absolutely amazing woman. You feel as if you are leaving your children with a trusted family member with her in the building, and you will often find her helping out in the classrooms- she truly loves her students. Have highly recommended this school to many friends in the area. If you are as particular about your child''s education as we are, and nothing but the best will do; no need to look further this is your school. - Posted by Parent
- May 13, 2013 - We love this school. Our daughter is in the Pre-K program and she is doing fantastic. The class sizes are small, there is door to door transportations and tons of extras (swimming, gym, writing/reading, science, yoga, gym, Spanish, computers, etc...). She is learning so much and obtaining great confidence. - Posted by Parent
- January 31, 2013 - Excellent english, math, and arts programs. Outstanding swimming training/coaching with indoor and outdoor pools, exceptional athletics program with interesting variants like wall climbing, etc. Small school where everyone knows each other so kids don''t slip through the cracks. While they have them, their computer and foreign languages are weak compared to Ranney School. Their summer camp is the best I could find in NJ with activities from surfing to sailing to beach, to swimming, basketball, etc. with things to do on rainy days. They have coverage before and after schools, so if both parents work, they can attend from 7:30am to 6pm. Overall, excellent private school with supportive teachers and interesting activities. - Posted by Parent

Welcome to the second article in a series designed to inform the Fin fan base of lesser known players currently on the Miami Dolphin roster. Last week we discussed Mike Rivera, and this week I continue to address the LB position.
Please meet Andrew James (A.J.) Edds.
A.J. was drafted by Miami last year in the fourth round at the 119th overall pick and signed a four year, 2.26 million dollar contract. The Fins even moved up seven spots to make sure they got their man. A.J. played all four years for the Iowa Hawkeyes with 39 starts out of 47 games at the outside linebacker position. He is a mountain of a man for the LB position measuring 6'4", but may need to add some bulk to his 246 pound frame. It was devastating that A.J. was injured prior to the season and was placed on injured reserve for the entire year. Regardless, let's take a look at just some of his many accomplishments, accolades and skill sets.

The Lying Game: Who's who and how is it different from the books?
ABC Family's The Lying Game may be based on the book of the same name, but the similarities pretty much end there.
"People who have loved the book will still get the tone in the series, but it takes on a life of its own," executive producer Charles Pratt, Jr. (Melrose Place) tells TVGuide.com. "Everybody you see on this show is somehow tied into the mystery, which is probably our biggest departure."
When Kirsten Prout's agent suggested she take a role in MTV's My Super Psycho Sweet 16 Part 2, the Twilight: Eclipse actress says she thought, "Are you kidding?"
But once Prout read the script, she loved it. "You can take this material that's geared to a certain demographic, but give it depth, smarten it up, make it fun, and also give it heart," Prout tells TVGuide.com. "It's got that John Hughes feeling, but it's also got that Halloween vibe."

|Marvel Universe Vs The Avengers #1 cover by Aaron Kuder
By Tim Stevens
In the limited series MARVEL UNIVERSE VS PUNISHER and MARVEL UNIVERSE VS WOLVERINE, writer Jonathan Maberry took readers to a world ravaged by a plague that had turned most of Earth's heroes into raving cannibalistic monsters. Those people once looked to for protection and inspiration had become the authors of the planet's destruction. In the newest installment of the saga, MARVEL UNIVERSE VS THE AVENGERS—a four-issue limited series beginning in October with art by Leandro Fernandez—Maberry looks even deeper into events, bringing the terror close to home.
"The story is intensely personal, as all stories of great cultural trauma," the writer asserts. "These are horror stories, and MARVEL UNIVERSE VS THE AVENGERS takes the horror down to a very personal level. We are no longer witnessing the world's hurt or the cultural hurt, we're inside the head –and heart—of a man who is experiencing the most personal kind of hurt."
The man in question, the archer extraordinaire Hawkeye, acts as the readers' eyes and ears in this shocking, sickening world, though he does not stand alone.
|Marvel Universe Vs The Punisher
"The story is told from Hawkeye's perspective, but most of the big guns are there: Thor, Hulk—red and green versions—Iron Man, Giant Man, Luke Cage, Black Widow, Mockingbird, Spider-Man, and others," reveals Maberry. "We also check in on the kids at
As the story unfolds, the normally sardonic arrow slinger finds himself struggling with a mixed blessing. While undeniably more powerful heroes become victims the plague, he appears to have a heightened resistance to it.
"The world is becoming a horror show and no one has the power to stop it," Maberry explains. "Then we look down at the street-level, at a man like Hawkeye who has no super powers and who isn't really the go-to guy for a world-threatening crisis and for reasons we'll explore in the story, he doesn't succumb to the plague as quickly. More and more of the responsibility for this fight falls to him, and he's extremely mortal.
|Marvel Universe Vs Wolverine
"View that same thing from another perspective and you see someone who has never been as powerful as his teammates, and yet he's always held the line, always done his part. So, maybe he's the kind of hero we need in a world where super powers are no longer the answer."
Some of the events in MARVEL UNIVERSE VS THE AVENGERS have already unfolded in the previous two stories, but will be seen from different perspectives before moving the story even further into the world's dark structure.
"The world itself is broken, and the storytelling reflects that," Maberry offers. "There is no longer an orderly pace to history, and if humanity survives, the history that's taught will come from fragments of memory and experiences.
"I wanted to get inside the phenomenon of becoming 'powerless.' Many of the heroes lose their heroic status by becoming monsters; we have characters struggling to continue to be heroes while knowing that they are transforming into the enemy. The government and even groups like S.H.I.E.L.D. can't stop this. The grea
In the end, however, the story all comes back to one hero with no super powers and a quiver of arrows.
"That is a special kind of horror, and it's a special kind of heroic tale," Maberry promises. "I think people are going to bond pretty heavily with Hawkeye in this tale."

Last week we discussed just one of the St. Louis Blues' 2010 First Round Draft picks, and moving onto our second player profile leads us to the 14th Overall Selection in 2010, Jaden Schwartz.
Many of you are probably pretty familiar with Schwartz with his time with the Blues last season and his current status playing with the AHL's Peoria Rivermen. For those of you who are so familiar though, let's take a look at the history behind the young sniper.
On January 22, 2008, Schwartz committed to playing for Colorado College for the 2010-11 season, but Schwartz's professional career would begin during the 2008-09 season while playing in the Juniors for his hometown Notre Dame Hounds. Finishing the season fifth overall in scoring, Schwartz managed to put up some 34 goals and 42 assists in only 46 games. That is a total of 76 points in 30 less games helping him to win the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League's Rookie of the Year award that season.
The next year, Schwartz would transfer into the United States Hockey League to play for the Tier 1 Junior team the Tri-City Storm. Following up his huge first professional season lots of eyes turned to Schwartz to see what he would be able to do in a new league. The end of 2009-10 saw Schwartz capture the USHL's scoring title managing to record 33 goals and 50 assists, 83 points, in 60 games played and seeing him named to the First All-Star team. Following his incredible season, Schwartz was drafted by the St. Louis Blues.
Having already committed to Colorado College, Schwartz began his freshman season in 2010 as previously promised. In that first season, Schwartz played 30 regular season games and put up 17 goals and 30 assists. Entering the post season Colorado College was set to face the returning champions, Boston College. St. Louis Blues fans were in for a real treat that season as the city played host to the West Regional Semi-Finals in the same arena that the Blues call home, the Scottrade Center. In that first elimination game of the tournament, Schwartz recorded two goals and an assist in an 8-4 victory sending Colorado College on to the West Regional Finals. Mathing up against Michigan in the finals, Colorado College was held to just one goal in a 2-1 loss, but Schwartz did have an assist on the lone goal.
Schwartz missed 6 games the next season to play for the Canadian World Junior team in the 2011 World Junior Championships. While he was selected to play for Canada the year before, Schwartz fractured his ankle in the second game played causing him to sit out the remained of the tournament. The 2012 World Juniors would see a different fortune though, as Schwartz was named captain of the Canadian team. That year, Schwartz would appear in 6 games scoring 2 goals and 3 assists.
Meanwhile, at Colorado College the same season, Schwartz scored 15 goals and 26 assists for 41 points in just 30 games played. Despite his remarkable performance, Colorado College was eliminated in the first round of the playoffs.
Having been eliminated from the playoffs, Schwartz wasted no time signing a entry level contract with the St. Louis Blues on March 12, 2012. Waiting to practice with the team, and for Coach Ken Hitchcock to find him a place in the lineup, Schwartz finally made his NHL debut on March 17, 2012 in Tampa Bay. Schwartz was given the nod to start that night as Andy McDonald was sidelined with a shoulder injury. Skating on the second line with Jamie Langenbrunner and Patrik Berglund, Schwartz scored his first NHL goal on his first NHL shot on the powerplay 19 minutes and 24 seconds into the game.
Schwartz would appear in just 7 games for the Blues to end the season, but he did manage to net a total of 2 goals and 1 assist.
In the offseason there were debates among Blues fans as to where Schwartz would fit into the lineup in the upcoming season. After the signing of Vladimir Tarasenko it looked like there was not going to be a spot on the roster for Schwartz and that he would most likely start the season in Peoria. Unfortunately, due to the NHL Lockout, Schwartz never got the chance to earn a spot on the Blues roster and has been playing in Peoria all season so far.
In the 19 games he has appeared in so far this season, Schwartz has scored 5 goals and 4 assists. While many assumed that he would be able to put up slightly higher numbers, a lot of his troubles seem to be attributed to the overall performance of the Rivermen so far this season. Schwartz is known as a slick passer who plays well behind the net and can set up in front of the net, but with a lack of chemistry on his line, Schwartz appears to be trying to make up for the rest of the team.
Personally, I think that Schwarz would have benefited from playing alongside Tarasenko had he chosen to stay in North America rather than returning to the KHL, but we will have to wait to see these guys play together until the owners and players can come to an agreement. Schwartz has a ton of potential and could probably really benefit from practicing and traveling with the big club even if he were a healthy scratch on game day. Hopefully when the season starts, we can see Schwartz fight for a roster spot and if there are any injuries you will be sure to see him donning the number 9 again. Meanwhile, look for number 41 in Peoria.
As always, LET'S GO BLUES!

Bookmarks: 'Wild' goose chase
After reading "Beat the Reaper" by the same author recently, I decided to try out his sequel. I was apprehensive because the sequel is never as good as the original. Apprehensions aside, I dove in, expecting the snark and cynicism Josh Bazell is capable of.
I was right to be apprehensive.
"Wild Thing" is the second adventure of Peter Brown, who is still trying not to be found by mafia gangsters while maintaining his profession as a doctor. Instead, he is called by his mentor to hunt down a monster in Minnesota, the "Land of Ten Thousand Lakes" equivalent of Sasquatch.
Brown is hired by someone known only as "Rec Bill" or reclusive billionaire.
Rec Bill sends Peter Brown and a paleontologist on this wild goose chase to catch the creature and the craziness of nine hells breaks loose in the process.
"Wild Thing" is a good exercise in creative writing and creative additions, where footnotes in "Beat the Reaper" were sarcastic while still being informative in as few words as possible.
In "Wild Thing," however, the footnotes are mildly important to the progress of the story. Those and the multiple points of views distract from the original text on the page. There are chapters that explain what the creature could be but these chapters are also told by secondary characters, and while well written, really don't need to be there.
Bazell is a great writer, but where "Beat the Reaper" was a concise, fun thrill ride, "Wild Thing" was confusing and clearly not Bazell's area of expertise.
The medical science in "Beat the Reaper" was easy to understand because Bazell is actually a doctor.
With "Wild Thing," the science is well explained but a headache as a result of it not being Bazell's forte. The explanations are not concise and therefore detract from the story.
Bazell wants the reader to understand the science, but relies too heavily on all the extra aspects of the story to explain the science, and it doesn't make for fun reading.
Overall, give it a shot, but don't get your hopes up.

Did somebody say #armparty? We all went crazy over these Noir lanyard bracelets the second we laid eyes on them! The lanyard reminds us of summer camp craft projects, but the gold toggles make them super luxe. They're perfect for stacking with all of our other bracelets (and hair elastics). And at $25, we can buy them for all of our besties, too.

text: DNC Pins Hopes on Shredded Credibility of Elizabeth Warren Print article Send a Tip by Michael Patrick Leahy 5 Sep 2012 post a comment The Democratic National Convention tonight is pinning its hopes on the shredded credibility of Massachusetts Democratic Senate candidate Elizabeth Warren, who has been caught telling so many blatant lies during the course of her campaign she has become a national laughing stock. When she gives her speech introducing former President Bill Clinton this evening, she's expected to make a series of attacks on the Republican candidates. The problem this presents for Democrats is simple. Will anyone who's not a hard core left-wing radical believe a word she says? The public humiliation of Ms. Warren began when the Boston Herald reported that she had, since the 1980s and well into the 1990s "checked the affirmative action box" and claimed Native American ancestry, despite no credible evidence to support that claim. Even the reliably liberal Boston Globe, which originally promoted the false meme that she was 1/32 Cherokee, was forced to recant, and called on Ms. Warren to fess up. Then, of course, there was the revelation that one of her ancestors had actually been a member of the Tennessee militia that rounded up Cherokees in preparation for the Trail of Tears. And who can forget her Pow Wow Chow cookbook plagiarism? Here's a description of the origin of the recipes she submitted to that classic work: Two of the possibly plagiarized recipes, said in the Pow Wow Chow cookbook to have been passed down through generations of Oklahoma Native American members of the Cherokee tribe, are described in a New York Times News Service story as originating at Le Pavilion, a fabulously expensive French restaurant in Manhattan. The dishes were said to be particular favorites of the Duke and Duchess of Windsor and Cole Porter. The two recipes, "Cold Omelets with Crab Meat" and "Crab with Tomato Mayonnaise Dressing," appear in an article titled "Cold Omelets with Crab Meat," written by Pierre Franey of the New York Times News Service that was published in the August 22, 1979 edition of the Virgin Islands Daily News, a copy of which can be seen here. Ms. Warren's 1984 recipe for Crab with Tomato Mayonnaise Dressing is a word-for-word copy of Mr. Franey's 1979 recipe. These claims proved a bonanza for conservatives who have creatively developed a series of nicknames for Ms. Warren, ranging from Fauxcahontas to Lieawatha. Then came her bizarre claim that her parents had "eloped," because her father's parents objected to their union due to his mother's supposed Native American ancestry, which was quickly debunked. Her pattern when provided with evidence of her lies? Not only does she "double down" on them, she "triples down." She seems to believe the more she repeats her lies, the louder she makes them, the better she will be able to persuade voters to believe them. When the 1993 Harvard Women's Law Journal that confirmed she claimed minority status was uncovered, she was finally forced to admit to the Boston Globe that, yes, she did tell Harvard she deserved minority status, even though she had no evidence to support the claim. Then of course, there were her subsequent blunders and whoppers. In June, Breitbart caught her telling a tall tale about a composite grandmother. In July, she made a campaign commercial that pointed to Communist China as a great model for the United States, then called herself the savior of capitalism. Just as the laughter surrounding her false claims of Native American ancestry began to lessen, another controversy erupted, when it was discovered that claims of scientific misconduct made against her in 1990 have never been publicly resolved : When Harvard Law School offered Elizabeth Warren a tenured faculty position in February 1993, administrators at the school knew that her scholarship had been criticized harshly. Between 1989 and 1991, three leading academic experts on bankruptcy wrote devastating critiques of the 1989 book she co-authored with Teresa Sullivan and Jay Westbrook, As We Forgive Our Debtors: Bankruptcy and Consumer Credit in America. The reviews, published in highly respected academic journals, belied claims made at the time of her hiring by Harvard Law School Dean Robert C. Clark that her work reflected "excellent scholarship" and by Appointments Committee member Professor Charles Fried that she was "at the very top of her profession as a scholar." Charges from one expert, Professor Philip Shuchman of Rutgers Law School, that Warren and her co-authors engaged in "scientific misconduct" were made in a 1990 edition of the Rutgers Law Review. Those charges remain controversial to this day. And it's in these claims of questionable academic research where featuring Ms. Warren at the DNC may prove the most damaging to the Democratic Party. Though her research has been cited as the basis for the Dodd-Frank bill and its secretive and autocratic Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, an increasing number of academics are pointing out its flaws. Highlighting Ms. Warren and her long list of misrepresentations does nothing to engender confidence in the Democratic Party's plans for the economy. As Ms. Warren speaks to the DNC tonight, conservatives will readily provide fact checks on the litany of falsehoods we all expect to emanate from the embattled Massachusetts Democratic Senate candidate.

The humble door lock – a security measure that's so run-of-the-mill it can become your greatest vulnerability. All it takes is a piece of broken hardware or a door propped open to let someone slip in unchallenged. One of the best ways you can harden your facility is to concentrate on egress integrity.
1) Define Public vs. Private
If there are separate doors for staff and customers, make sure the entrances are appropriately marked and secured.
"Doors that are open for employee use should be locked at all times, monitored by access control and, in some instances, have tailgate detection," recommends Ken Kuehler, director of sales and marketing for Detex, a manufacturer of door security hardware.
2) Schedule Door Maintenance
You perform predictive maintenance on your other building systems – make sure your doors receive the same attention.
"Check the integrity of locks and doors every month and prioritize replacements," says Pizzitola. "I can't stress how many times I find doors with broken locks and building owners admit they've been compromised
for months."
Routine inspections are key as you may find that your own occupants are defeating the hardware, particularly if they're looking for a covert smoking area or a "personal" back entrance.
"Evaluate the integrity of panic bars on interior doors," Pizzitola advises. "If the model has a screw set, a person can easily take an Allen wrench and lock down the system so the door can be opened from
the outside."
3) Add Alarms
Door alarms provide immediate notification of an incident and are easily integrated into a building's exiting security.
"Hardwired alarms sound an alert when the door is opened and can send a signal to a security office and cameras. The use of local indicator panels at floor staff locations may also be used to monitor openings that are not in the line of sight," adds Kuehler.
4) Balance Life Safety
Before you tackle any retrofits, make sure they comply with local safety and NFPA codes.
"Communicating with your local authority having jurisdiction can save you from errors that could entail expensive re-working of doors or complete door replacement," Kuehler cautions.
For example, NFPA 101 stipulates that all doors must have unobstructed exit access. The code states "locks shall not require the use of a key, tool, special knowledge, or effort for operation from the inside of the building."
Say you want to fortify a room against an outside threat so occupants can shelter in place. To comply with NFPA and avoid the risk of people getting trapped, however, any interior lock you install must allow people to exit the room freely.
5) Install Surveillance
Beyond access control, consider a well-placed security camera. Live surveillance is one option, but you may not have the bandwidth or manpower to monitor a continuous feed.
Use analytics or software controls to trigger the camera to start recording and send a signal to security or office staff, says Kuehler. These can include motion detection, the swipe of an access badge, or switches in exit devices.

Though addressing environmental issues is a responsibility that cannot be shirked, it presents a complex problem that requires an interdisciplinary approach, one which invokes sciences of all kinds, industries of all kinds, government, and ecological groups.

CORPUS CHRISTI, TX (Catholic Online) - In some of our prior articles, including "The Theology of Ecology," "Morality, Science and Technology," and "A Moral Ecology," we reflected upon the Scriptural view of nature and the problems that occur when man exploits nature, when, heedless of moral norms, he puts nature to the rack or through the grist mill.
Though the Church is not opposed to science and technology, it is opposed to what we might call scientism or technologism, i.e., the use of science and technology unbounded by the moral law and heedless of nature as a whole or human nature in particular.
As the world continues its economic development, care for the environment presents itself as a challenge for all humankind. Our earthly environment "is a matter of a common and universal duty," it is one that truly involves the common good of humanity.
No human being and no institution is free to disregard the moral use of nature and its resources. In the words of John Paul II quoted by the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church, it is our common obligation to prevent "anyone from using 'with impunity the different categories of beings, whether living or inanimate--animals, plants, the natural elements--simply as one wishes, according to one's own economic needs.'"
There are other human goods than economic exploitation of resources.
Whether we like it or not, the problem of the environment presents itself as an international problem requiring international solutions. What good is it for the United States to place strict emission standards on its own manufacturing plants to our own economic disadvantage while China's plants belch out foul poisons into earth's atmosphere? What good is it for us to restrict the harvest of our forests, while we watch the Amazon's forests denuded?
One must also not forget that the use of the world and its resources today affects the life of those who come after us. If we are irresponsible now, "after-comers" will not be able to "guess the beauty been."
Since the problems regarding the environment are global, they require global solutions.
As the Compendium notes:
"Responsibility for the environment, the common heritage of mankind, extends not only to present needs but also to those of the future. 'We have inherited from past generations, and we have benefited from the work of our contemporaries: for this reason we have obligations towards all, and we cannot refuse to interest ourselves in those who will come after us, to enlarge the human family.' This is a responsibility that present generations have towards those of the future, a responsibility that also concerns individual States and the international community." (Compendium, No. 467) (quoting Paul VI, Populorum Progressio, 266)
It would seem that the problem can only be handled through some sort of juridical or legal construct, while it cannot be limited to that. Perhaps as important as relying upon juridical means is the need to inculcate a "sense of responsibility as well as an effective change of mentality and lifestyle" that is more in keeping with environmental or ecological sensitivity. (Compendium, No. 468)
Market forces are in a considerable degree inadequate to handle the problem because they tend to have short-term and not long-term perspectives, and costs associated with environmental effects may not be internalized in that they can be passed down to future generations or absorbed by others. For this reason economic interests may be opposed to environmental interests. They live in tension.
"An economy respectful of the environment will not have the maximization of profits as its only objective, because environmental protection cannot be assured solely on the basis of financial calculations of costs and benefits." (Compendium, No. 470)
"The environment is one of those goods that cannot be adequately safeguarded or promoted by market forces. Every country, in particular developed countries, must be aware of the urgent obligation to reconsider the way that natural goods are being used. Seeking innovative ways to reduce the environmental impact of production and consumption of goods should be effectively encouraged." (Compendium, No. 470)
While the juridical construct does not necessarily require a global juridical institution--a global EPA in fact sounds positively frightening--it does require, at minimum, some sort of global or international cooperation and recognition of the problem and its commonality.
"It is important that the international community draw up uniform rules that will allow States to exercise more effective control over the various activities that have negative effects on the environment and to protect ecosystems by preventing the risk of accidents." (Compendium, No. 468).
At the very minimum, the various states should actively endeavor within their own territories "to prevent destruction of the atmosphere and biosphere, by carefully monitoring, among other things, the impact of new technological or scientific advances . . . [and] insuring that its citizens are not exposed to dangerous pollutants or toxic wastes." (Compendium, No. 468) (quoting JPII, Message for the 1990 World Day of Peace)
Though addressing environmental issues is a responsibility that cannot be shirked, it presents a complex problem that requires an interdisciplinary approach, one which invokes sciences of all kinds, industries of all kinds, government, and ecological groups. Decisions must sometimes be made when the data are not clear, when there is a state of uncertainty as to the data's interpretation.
An example that may be cited is whether there is global warming, and, if so, whether it is natural or man-made, and, if man-made, how much of it is attributable to controllable human causes. Sometimes the scientific data and the interpretation of that data are complicated by hidden agendas, by irresponsible propaganda, by self-interest and self-regard.
Histrionics sometimes hides scientific facts.
In the light of uncertainty or probabilities, a "precautionary principle" may be adopted as a guide to practical, yet prudent, action:
"The authorities called to make decisions concerning health and environmental risks sometimes find themselves facing a situation in which available scientific data are contradictory or quantitatively scarce. It may then be appropriate to base evaluations on the "precautionary principle", which does not mean applying rules but certain guidelines aimed at managing the situation of uncertainty. This shows the need for making temporary decisions that may be modified on the basis of new facts that eventually become known."
"Such decisions must be proportional with respect to provisions already taken for other risks. Prudent policies, based on the precautionary principle require that decisions be based on a comparison of the risks and benefits foreseen for the various possible alternatives, including the decision not to intervene. This precautionary approach is connected with the need to encourage every effort for acquiring more thorough knowledge, in the full awareness that science is not able to come to quick conclusions about the absence of risk. The circumstances of uncertainty and provisional solutions make it particularly important that the decision-making process be transparent." (Compendium, No. 469)
The problem requires rational solutions, solutions based upon dispassionate assessment of the environmental problem, of its causes, of possible cures. It must take into consideration a variety of factors, including: nature itself, the kind of resource involved (whether renewable or non-renewable), economic and market factors, industrial interests, cultural idiosyncrasies, the just imposition of costs associated with environmental restrictions, the divergence between rich nations and the poor, with the urgency of developing the wealth of the latter, alternatives that may be available, the current state of science or technology.
There simply is no one right answer to this very complex problem. But that does not excuse us from not trying. It may be a situation where angels fear to tread, but then we shouldn't rush in as fools.

Check out the Audio Room to listen to Mr. Lee's dramatic reading of an abridged version of Bram Stoker's Dracula. It is a wonderful rendition with sound effects and has Mr. Lee performing all the different character parts. He is absolutely brilliant in this performance!
Well, I just finished listening to CL´s reading Dracula.
It was fantastic !!!
And for me it was the first time, to hear him playing so many characters at the same time....!!!!!
He has done a real ,great performance !!!
Impossible to describe how much I enjoyed it !!!
Well, Dali if you want to buy those CD´s : CL´s reading Dracula....then please check this url,
I think,in the Club-Store, it´s not available !!! At least , not yet !!! Maybe some day it will....
Concerning Edgar Allen Poe. I´m not sure (I may be wrong), but I think there are existing CD´s on which Christopher Lee is reading Poe-stories.
But I don´t know where you can buy those !!!!
Can anybody tell me where I can order the 2-CD set of Christopher Lee's interpretation of "Dracula?" (As far as I can tell, the Chiller Theater site is entirely dysfunctional. I've tried them half a dozen times, with a valid credit card!) I'd really like to have this classic reading. Any ideas?
It worked for me... The double cd Of Dracula read by MR Lee is $20.00...and it has a really nice cover (Dracula!!!)
Perhaps that's a good price
Randy, keep trying to get in the site...
Steffi...I dunno how you managed to find this shop!!!
I could stay for years searching on the internet...and be unable to satisfy myself!!!!
Some people are really good internet searchers!!!!

The Knicks have picked up a few veterans to fill out the new Big 3 Knicks roster. The first signing was Mike Bibby, then Baron Davis, and now possibly James Posey.
via Ian Bagley of ESPNNewYork
A source close to James Posey said the Knicks have been in contact with the forward as recently as Monday. The source said Posey has been in talks with a number of teams and, as of Monday night, no deal had been struck. According to a report Monday from the Boston Globe, the Celtics are not interested in re-signing Posey, who was a key piece to their 2008 NBA championship team.
Posey was amnestied by the Indiana Pacers and cleared waivers, so he is free to sign with any team.
Other Knicks targets of interest may include Al Thornton and Bostjan Nachbar.
Mike D'Antoni was asked about the possibility of adding another player to the roster on Monday.
"Maybe," the coach said. "If something makes sense. I know [interim GM] Glen [Grunwald] will look and try to exhaust all the avenues. And if we can get a guy … great. If not, that's fine. We're good to go."
Posey is great spot up shooter, he's not as good from the three as Shawne Williams was, but he can jump in and give the Knicks very positive minutes. He also is as very good defender, Posey was with the Celtics during the championship run and understands what it takes to be committed throughout an entire season to defense. I would rather see the Knicks make the deal for him instead of the other options in Al Thornton and Bostjan Nachbar. Posey can be used as a hybrid defender, he can chase around some 2's, most 3's, and smaller 4's. With a shortened season, the Knicks, like most teams will be going deep into their teams bench during those back to back nights. Posey can give you short bursts of quality minutes.
Would you sign James Posey?

USC Trojans vs Oregon State Beavers
Reser Stadium | Corvallis, Oregon
6:00 p.m. | ESPN2
All-Time Series: 59-11-4
Last Meeting: 2010 – USC 7, Oregon State 36 in Corvallis
USC looks to exorcise their pacific northwest demons in this Dia De Los Muertos match up with the Oregon State Beavers. It's a well-known fact by now, USC hasn't won in Corvallis in the last three tries. It's an even more well-known fact that two of those losses cost the Trojans legitimate chances to play for the national championship in 2006 and 2008.
Those teams are long gone now though and most of the Trojan roster has no personal recollection of the dangers of Reser Stadium (they haven't played there since 2010). Flipping the script even more, Oregon State enters this game as the favorites for the first time in a long time. Does that bode well for USC or are they doomed to remain under the curse of the north?

ICYMI: Oregon State Week Podcast
Earlier this week, Michael Castillo, Alicia de Artola and Trenise Ferreira sat down for a chat about the win over Utah, concerns about the offensive line, and a look ahead to Oregon State.
When Oregon State has the ball…
Sean Mannion will look to exploit the thinned out USC secondary with the Beavers pass heavy offense. Last week Mannion threw the ball 57 times in a loss to Stanford. Faced with the stout USC run defense, it is unlikely the Beavers will change tactics and suddenly attempt to run the ball down the Trojans' throat. Instead, Brandin Cooks will be called upon with regularity. Shutting him down will be a key USC goal. While Storm Woods and Terron Ward won't see an excess of hand offs, they will be used to punish too much aggression in the Trojan defensive front with screens and dump offs.
That defensive front, on the other hand, will be tasked with throwing off Mannion's rhythm by getting his jersey dirty early and often. Their success or failure could very well determine the outcome of the game. Josh Shaw and Kevon Seymour will likely attempt to keep the game in front of them in a bend but don't break style. Adding to USC's concern in the secondary, Su'a Cravens and Dion Bailey are both battling injury and could be hampered against the top passing offense in the nation. Their effectiveness will be a major story line.
Beaver Projected Starting Offense:
SE #8 Richard Mullaney

MLB #10 Hayes Pullard
WLB #56 Anthony Sarao
CB #6 Josh Shaw
FS #18 Dion Bailey
SS #21 Su'a Cravens
CB #13 Kevon Seymour
When USC has the ball…
The Trojans will hope that Kevin Graf's potential absence at left tackle and the ensuing shuffle on the offensive line doesn't disrupt the already struggling line's performance too much. Tre Madden's return bodes well for USC as he was by far the most effective running back in a pitiful display on the ground against Utah. Oregon State's defensive line isn't at the level of the Utes, so the Trojans will likely have more success running the ball. They'll need it because the Beavers will do everything they can to fluster Cody Kessler into making bad throws. Those bad throws could easily become interceptions against the ball-hawking Oregon State secondary.
Kessler will be more concerned with being a game manager much like he was against Utah. With two key targets returning, Marqise Lee and Xavier Grimble, Kessler will have more options downfield, which can only be a good thing considering how thin the receiving corp has gotten this season. The key for Kessler and the Trojans is limiting mistakes. Oregon State's defense has improved, but they aren't the test that Notre Dame and Utah have presented. The points are there for the taking if the execution is right.

@gublernation: BFF's forever
@gublernation: BFF's forever
One episode? Ugh, I can't even.
Erin Strauss:Agent Hotchner I said that's enough! My position is not in question here. As your superior, I am questioning your ability to lead your team…
Hotchner: My team? Let me tell you about my team: Agent Morgan fought to protect his identity from the very people who could save him. Why? Because trust has to be earned, and there are very few people he truly trusts. Reid's intellect is a shield which protects him from his emotions, and at the moment his shield is under repair. Prentiss over-compensates because she doesn't yet feel she's a part of the team; she needn't worry. Everyday Agent Jareau fields dozens of requests for our team, and every night she goes home hoping she has made the right choices. Garcia fills her office with figurines and color, to remind herself to smile as the horror fills her screens… And Agent Gideon in many ways is damned by his profound knowledge of others, which is why he shares so little of himself, yet he pours his heart into every case we handle. I stand by my actions, and I stand by my team, and if you think that you can find a better person for the job, then good luck.

World War II aviator's Purple Heart comes homeBy MICHAEL RUBINKAM
The Associated Press | November 10,2013Gordon H. Yates was a tall, skinny redhead who joined the Navy during World War II when he was 17. Two years later, the young aviator was dead, beheaded by the enemy after his patrol bomber was shot down in waters off southeast Asia.
Saturday, Purple Hearts Reunited presented the medal he was awarded decades ago to his sister in southeastern Pennsylvania. Yates family had lost track of the medal at least as far back as 1979 when his father died.
Yates 80-year-old sister, Alva Brickner, now afflicted with Parkinsons disease, cant communicate very well, but her son said her reaction was unmistakable when he told her the medal had been found.
She teared up, Daniel Brickner said. She just kept writing, Thank you.
Yates was aboard a patrol bomber flying its 36th mission when it was shot down, according to an account provided by Purple Hearts Reunited.
The crew made it to shore and hid in the jungle aided by French Resistance fighters but Yates and his mates eventually fell into Japanese hands.
While some of Yates comrades were shot, Yates was beheaded on April 27, 1945. He was 19.
Zachariah Fike, founder of Purple Hearts Reunited, surmised that Yates was either defiant or perhaps his captors believed they were according him an honor by killing him with a sword.
No one will ever know why, said Fike.
Daniel Brickner said he believes the Purple Heart a combat decoration awarded to those wounded or killed in action was likely in the possession of his grandfather, then inadvertently sold at an estate sale following his 1979 death.
The medal wound up with a woman in Ashland, Va., who had it for more than 30 years. The woman recently told the adjutant of the Richmond chapter of the Military Order of the Purple Heart that she couldnt remember where she got it, but had always planned to find its rightful owner.
At some point, the Purple Heart was misplaced. But the woman recently located it in her home again and turned it in, according to Fike, whose nonprofit has returned 60 lost or stolen medals. Fike presided over Saturdays ceremony in Narvon, Lancaster County, where Alva Brickner lives in a nursing home.
It was probably one of the most heartwarming events Ive been to, with the family dynamic, Fike said afterward. There were about 20 family members in attendance. It was an awesome event.MORE IN Wire NewsWASHINGTON Former Nazis should not be getting the Social Security benefits they are receiving...

Let's be honest — the Tigers have been a team tough to watch as of late. Detroit is now 1-7 in their last eight games and have been out scored 34-6 in their last three outings.
The Tigers hoped to get things turned about on Monday against an offensively starved team in the Athletics, who were riding a four-game losing streak themselves. Unfortunately, that's not how it played out, as the A's hit five home runs and rode 6 2/3 scoreless innings from Tommy Milone to a 10-0 win over the Detroit before a rare sellout crowd at the O.co Coliseum.
Brandon Moss and Kyle Blanks delivered second-inning solo shots, Donaldson and Yoenis Cespedes went back-to-back in the third and Derek Norris added his first career grand slam for Oakland, which scored more than three runs for the first time in seven contests. Tommy Milone (3-3) improved to 3-0 with a 2.31 ERA in four all-time starts against the Tigers, yielding four hits and two walks while fanning six.
Victor Martinez singled twice while Miguel Cabrera and Andrew Romine each doubled for Detroit, which managed only five hits and was unable to advance a runner past second base. Drew Smyly (2-3) gave up a career-worst four homers, as many as he allowed in 76 innings last season, and was tagged for a career high-tying six runs on eight hits over five frames as the Tigers lost for the seventh time in eight games.
This marked the first time Tigers pitchers had allowed 10-plus runs in three consecutive games since July 2007, not to mention, in the span of eight hitters, Smyly allowed four home runs.
The Tigers managed to offer up nothing offensively against A's lefty Tommy Milone, who lasted into the seventh. The A's won for the first time since Milone's last start in Tampa Bay and Oakland avoided its first five-game losing streak since last May.
This was a meeting of the teams with the two best records in the American League. With the A's win, they move back ahead of the Tigers and possess the AL's best winning percentage. The only team in baseball with a better record is the San Francisco Giants.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I loved the sample invitation that was sent me, but when our actual invitation came in it was not like the sample. This card has a slight purple/grayish color to it, not white as the sample that we got. The quality of picture was not of great quality but I don't know if it's because of the matte finish paper, maybe if we would have upgraded the paper it would have made it better??? Overall, it is a nice invitation and we decide to use the pocket folders which made it even better!!!"
"Just received these invites and I am beyond thrilled with how they turned out! The quality of the paper and the overall printing is really great, and at a very good price. I have shown the invitations around to some friends and co-workers, and they have all raved about it and cant believe how inexpensive they were. The fact that we were able to personalize the invite with our own photo was perfect. I paid a little extra for the shimmer envelopes and card and I am happy I did, they look great and the shimmer effect makes our photo look better. I live in Canada and thought it might take a while for them to be shipped, but they came within a week! Just so happy with how these turned out and would recommend this site/invitations to anyone!"
"I ordered this card as a sample along with some others and both my fiancé and I immediately agreed on this design above all the others. We just loved how simple and classy it was, yet contemporary. I designed ours and ordered it. We absolutely love it. I also liked that you could put a picture on the back of the invite or chose the grey and white stripes. I chose the stripes and changed the quote since there is a photo on the front. I couldn't be happier!"
"We ordered a sample of this invitation to view before making a final decision. When it came in, I was very impressed. We wanted the pearl shimmer, and you could really see the shimmer that it gave the invite. I also liked how the wording was in all lower case except the bride and grooms names. Very good paper quality. Love this invite!"
"I was very nervous ordering our invitations online but I am so glad I did. Wedding Paper Divas did an amazing job! The paper quality was excellent and the design turned out exactly the way we wanted them. The color quality was excellent as well."
