5-star jquery rating has bug with Sencha Touch
Hi everyone,
I'm developing a sencha touch application, and I need a 5-star rating inside an Ext.List . I use Raty a jquery plug-in to do that.
I've made some experiment and there are bugs on iPhone. When you rate on desktop browser (Chrome for example) it works very well with no problem, but with iPhone Safari browser when you rate, sometimes it changes the rating of an other item of the list (it seems to be random).
You can test it at this URL making a dozen of ratings and re-rating randomly :
example with sencha touch
And it's not a problem of jquery on iPhone because without sencha touch the bug disappear :
example without sencha touch
I don't know how to solve this because I use Chrome to bug my project, but the problem appears only on mobile, not the best way for debugging.
Has anyone an idea ?

Okay thank you. But I don't understand why it is incompatible. Even if it's not supported, jquery should work because it's in a template and not in a sencha-touch component. And there it's clearly sencha-touch which make jquery bug. Does sencha-touch modify a lot the event management and so will make confliact with jquery ?
Edit: And if we can't use jquery, how make a star-rating system for items list ?

Current Implementation
Keypad hardware hooked up to Minotaur at /dev/ttyS3 - The fucking doorkeypad is finished
Backend software (baron.py)
On Minotaur:
/usr/local/share/noisebridge-baron/baron.py - baron script, takes arguments --port=/dev/whatever and --codefile=/var/blablabla/codes
/etc/init/baron.conf - jesse's init script
/usr/local/share/noisebridge-baron/codes.txt - codes file, any line starting with a 4-7 digit number (ignoring whitespace) is interpreted as a valid code, # is used for comments
- Add an access log of some sort, and switch out stdout debug/error messages for something more useful
- Add a way to add/remove codes (from Pony?), somehow syncing the file to Minotaur.
- If you change the way codes are loaded, please ensure it's done in a way that won't interrupt a user in the middle of using the keypad. (So, don't just restart the process.) Currently, it tries to refresh the codes list in a background thread every 30 seconds — if the file is corrupted or missing, it continues with the last good list.
- Add a "bad" codes list, to block codes from being reused.
- Add the ability to expire codes - maybe a comment in the codes.txt file?
Keycode System Features
- Numberpad on front door
- Database of codes... on pony? With notes? Probably we need a basic schema for what info we do and don't want to log.
- Tom wants it to be a text file with a pin or rfid code per line and comments delimited by hash marks
- Logging keycodes (necessary to be able to shut off problem codes)
- keycodes not formally associated with individuals
- member keycodes differentiable in some way
- keep logs for 7 days
- require 2 users to access logs (cryptographically)
- Keycode Generation
- Distribution
- how to distribute without leaving electronic records associating code with individual?
- the most paranoid users will not trust the system anyway
- Disabling keycodes
- presumably not a feature needed immediately.
There are 3 components to a doorlock system:
- A code entry box (physical hardware)
- Security controller (computer) (we already have minotaur which controls the doorlatch)
- Electronic doorlatch (i.e. buzzer [may be silent])
Commercial door control systems usually have a central controller which is physically located inside the building and cannot be accessed from the entry box. The code entry box is connected to the controller via hard wires (usually serial). The controller can activate the doorlatch via the existing Noisegate relay.
Potential Products
- Jake has volunteered to design and make serially-accessed codepads, one for the gate and one for inside.
- The fucking doorkeypad is finished
- HID prox reader - Supports RS422 and Wiegand
- HID keypad with 125KHz (prox) + 13.56MHz (iClass) - Only supports Wiegand
- Will may need a Wiegand interface:
- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wiegand_interface
- Cost is about $100-150
- Talked to Terry tonight who says he has a friend who has a bunch of access system gear that we could get donated. linuxman2001@gmail -- User:Hurtstotouchfire
Implementation Considerations
- Should we buy or build the controller?
- Shannon wants to replace the current keypad system with something fancy
- Jake thinks we should just add the keypad onto the gate with U-bolts
- we would need to talk to the landlord to do this (unless we can do it without drilling?)
- at present, we plan to just add an additional keypad and only replace the button system if the keypad is successful

Lawyers for BP, Transocean, Halliburton, the federal government, Gulf Coast states and local businesses traded barbs over who is to blame for the deadly 2010 explosion.
By TOM FOWLER
NEW ORLEANS -- The much-anticipated Deepwater Horizon trial
began with a flurry of finger pointing here Monday, as lawyers
for BP, Transocean, Halliburton, the federal government, Gulf
Coast states and local businesses traded barbs over who is to
blame for the deadly 2010 explosion and oil spill.
Transocean, which owned the drilling rig, failed to train
its crews properly and didn't maintain key safety equipment,
said Jim Roy, a lawyer for hundreds of businesses suing the
energy companies that were drilling the ill-fated well.
Brad Brian, a lawyer for Transocean, said that wasn't true,
noting that the Coast Guard, federal safety regulators and BP's
own management considered the Deepwater Horizon rig "what
"good" looked like."
Michael Underhill, the Justice Department's lead civil
attorney, focused on a last-minute conversation between BP
engineers on the rig and onshore that he said showed that the
oil giant acted with gross negligence.
But BP attorney Mike Brock argued the accident was caused by
many mistakes made by all the parties aboard the rig, which
exploded in April 2010, killing 11 workers and unleashing the
worst offshore oil spill in US history. "There were a number of
mistakes and errors in judgment that were made by BP,
Transocean and Halliburton," Mr. Brock said.
The conflicting statements came on the first day of the
civil trial, held in federal district court, aimed at
determining the degree of culpability that BP and the other
companies have for the accident. A second trial, scheduled for
the fall, will determine how much oil leaked into the Gulf of
Together, they will determine the size of fines companies
face under the Clean Water Act, which could total as much as
$17.6 billion.
BP, which hired Transocean and Halliburton to work on
drilling its well, has said the fines would likely be under $5
Both Transocean and the Justice Department focused part of
their opening statements on a 10-minute ship-to-shore phone
call between two BP engineers, Donald Vidrine and Mark Hafle,
less than an hour before the blast.
From the rig, Mr. Vidrine allegedly talked about unusual
results from a test designed to ensure the cement sealing in
the bottom of the well was successful. Investigators later
found that workers on the rig misinterpreted the results of the
"In many ways, it's a microcosm of what BP did wrong on this
well and why Transocean and its crew truly are victims of BP's
misconduct," Mr. Brian, the Transocean lawyer, said.
Instructing the crew to go ahead with its work in the wake of
these test results "was reckless, in utter and wholesale
disregard of the facts."
Mr. Underhill, of the Justice Department, said if Mr. Hafle
and Mr. Vidrine had put a halt to the operations after the
phone call they "could have saved 11 lives, saved the Gulf,
saved the people of the Gulf from a catastrophe."
Analysts following the case have said the call is important
as it could move knowledge of problems from the rig to BP
management onshore.
Mr. Brock, BP's lawyer, said Monday the conversation wasn't
about the final safety test but another part of operations, and
that many things were missed by all the parties in the moments
leading up to the accident.
Mr. Vidrine has pleaded not guilty to 22 counts of
involuntary manslaughter, and has maintained his innocence. Mr.
Hafle hasn't been charged; his lawyer said Mr. Hafle isn't a
party in the case and noted that opening statements aren't
considered evidence in a trial.
BP already has agreed to pay more than $30 billion in fines,
settlements and cleanup costs for the blowout and resulting
Gulf of Mexico oil spill, including $4 billion to settle
criminal charges related to the accident. Transocean has agreed
to $1 billion in civil fines and $400 million in criminal
A settlement is still possible. The Justice Department and
Gulf Coast states have considered offering BP a $16 billion
deal to cover its potential fines under the Clean Water Act as
well as payments under an environmental evaluation, several
people familiar with the offer said.

Buffered Grids No Longer Work In Tab Panels
I've just found that a grid, using a buffered store, no longer works when the grid is included on a tab panel, unless it's on the first tab. This used to work fine in 4.1 and also appears to be ok if the store isn't buffered.
Here's the code I've been using to test this:
If the "buffered: true" attribute is removed from the store then everything works fine. Similarly, if the grid is moved to the first panel (by uncommenting the commented out section and commenting the current forum grid tab item), then again it works ok.
I've also noticed that in Firebug that the calls are being made to the back end ok, it's just that nothing appears in the grid.
I'm presuming this is a bug, unless there's some new config thing I'm missing that has been introduced in version 4.2?
I've also just noticed that the data will actually appear if the grid is scrolled down (initially the grid is blank). This doesn't help me though, since some of my grids have only a few items and therefore the scroll bar doesn't appear.

You're over-nesting. The grid should be the tab.
In your current code, it's contained by a no layout panel.Evan Trimboli

Thanks for the report! I have opened a bug in our bug tracker.
6 Jan 2013 9:52 AM #4
@evant: I agree there's overnesting there - this is only a quick example thrown together to illustrate the problem and not my production code. However, the overnesting isn't the cause of the underlying problem, which is that a buffered grid in 4.2 isn't showing any results when displayed as a tab panel - remove the overnesting and the problem is still there. In 4.1, or with a non-buffered store, the problem doesn't occur.

What version was this fixed in? It still does not work with the most recent 4.2.x download. Is there a patch I can apply to fix it here?

Is it necessary to register a Universal Product Code for a video game intended for sale offline? What about online?
UPC codes are designed for retail sale in the United States. They aren't legally enforced, but rather a private industry that's been standardized. Per the GS1 website:
Therefore if you wanted to sell your game through practically any retailer, you would require a valid UPC for your product. Remember to follow the guidelines of registering your company with GS1 to have valid UPCs if you plan to do this.
Likewise selling a game on your own, whether online or offline, would not require a valid UPC. You could sell a million copies online through your own website or a million copies burned to DVDs, and it wouldn't matter.

Social Justice and Pro-Life: Are They Compatible?
I was recently asked by a Chicago Tribune reporter to explain the diversity in American Catholicism. How could Justice Scalia, a conservative, be Catholic, and Sonia Sotomayor, the newest nominee to the Supreme Court also be Catholic? Is the Church large enough to encompass both? I didn't know, but speculated that Sotomayor would be drawn to the "social justice" aspect of the tradition.I explained that there are different strands in American Catholicism today. Some American Catholics today emphasize life issues, others emphasize social justice issues. Some people work in pregnancy counseling centers, others work in soup kitchens. "Different gifts but the same spirit," to borrow from St. Paul.Are these strands incompatible? NO. There is no inherent incompatibility between concern for life issues and commitment to other questions of social justice. Pope John Paul II wrote both Evangelium Vitae and Solicitudo Rei Socialis. The U.S. Catholic Bishops advocate for social justice for both the immigrant and the unborn. And in Evangelium Vitae itself, Pope John Paul emphasized the need to put in place social structures and programs that support pregnant women and families as well as the elderly. Dorothy Day dedicated herself to improving the lot of the impoverished--and opposed abortion.I don't know what Judge Sotomayor's views on abortion are. (Some pro-life activists are cautiously optimistic. ) But I do know that it would be a terrible thing for the Church to pit its social justice commitments and its pro-life commitments against one another.

Goes to show the state of the Chicago Tribune that its reporter didn't seem to connect with Cardinal Bernardin and the consistent ethic of life.
I wholeheartedly agree.I think there is a perception of incompatibility because the two strands are often perceived to be on opposite sides of the political divide (although that is overly simplistic), and many/most of us begin to grow into a political identity before we've been fully immersed in the Catholic social and life teachings. (And once we do start to understand Catholic teaching and its policy implications, it may take us a very long time - maybe even the rest of our lives - to sort out the implications for our political behavior and allegiances).
I'm not trying to be confrontational (not my style in any event), but aren't the life issues a subset of CST? The USCCB lists "Life & Dignity of the Human Person" as one of the seven "Themes of Catholic Social Teaching."http://www.usccb.org/sdwp/projects/socialteaching/excerpt.shtmlI can understand how some might feel one or more themes are emphasized to the detriment of others, but since they are all part of the same whole, can they be incompatible?
Margaret's and my comments crossed - I was "wholeheartedly agree"ing with Kathleen's point that the two strands are compatible.FWIW - I'm not familiar with this reporter or her blog, but according to the "About ..." section on her web site, she has been with the Tribune since '03, so probably she missed the Bernardin era. It also states that she has covered the Dalai Lama and a tossed salad of other religion stories, and that squares with my experience with Chicago religion journalists (including from the Tribune), which is that they are generalists rather than specialists on the "Catholic beat".
Sorry, Cathleen with a C. Kaveny with a K.
Perhaps my confusion is the result of equating Catholic social teaching with Catholic social justice. I tend to use them interchangeably--and maybe incorrectly--because I see each of the seven CST themes listed by the USCCB as a social justice issue, too. Is "social justice" a term of art used to differentiate the "Life and Dignity of the Human Person" theme from the other six? My thanks in advance to anyone who can set me straight on the terminology.
Mr. Collier - I just think they all go together and support each other.Prof. Kaveny - it is difficult to answer reporter's questions especially by phone. You did an excellent job and it is one of the rare times I have seen someone explain, describe, and point out the long church history of social teaching and social justice issues.Thanks.
Hi, William, it's an interesting question about the terminology.I expect that the two terms "social teaching" and "social justice" get used interchangeably in informal conversation, but they do seem to suggest slightly different (although closely related) concepts.What they have in common is an attempt to bring about a just society. "Social teaching" would seem to be teaching about the social principles and practices that achieve that goal. "Social justice", as I understand the term, is specifically to correct existing injustices in society.So, for example, "Distributive justice" is a Catholic social teaching. That teaching describes the goal or ideal in which gifts from God such as food and wealth are justly distributed. We can use that social teaching to assess the current state of our society. If and when we find examples of unjust distribution (e.g. hunger is a real problem in the US), Social Justice would aim to address the problem.
The problem goes deeper than pro life and social justice. Generally there is more talk than action in a pretty mediocre Christianity. Christianity has gotten very comfortable and insular and exclusionary. Those two big wars and the holocaust came right out of Christendom.
It is not a new divide,, years ago when I worked in a large corp. a co-worker, Tom, was known by his selling parish chances and he was chairperson of the a parish bingo. I was known for work in social justice.. This confused many non-Catholic coworkers who could not apprieciate the different political and Catholic stances between me and Tom. I explained by denigrating Tom's charism by labling him as a Check book Catholic ... (;
It seems to me that "the social teachings" go way beyond "social justice". Justice does what is required. It is the domain of ntural law. But the social teachngs of the Church (and all Christinity for that matter) also require that we go beyond what we owe to others, that we be charitable. Thus justice requires us tot pay our bills, to put in an honest day's work, to repect the humanity of others. The wider social teaching -- charity -- requires that we give to the poor, and rich too if they are in need of kindness, that we forgive injustice, that we try to make this a better world than mere laws require us to."Law is a necessity, only a necessity", said Raissa Maritain. Charity is beyond law, beyond justice. It is the doman of the contingent, the gratuitous, the more-than-required, the domain of charity, of kindness and forgiveness, of love This is the broader social teaching of the Church.
All excellent points which makes me revise my immediate response above. Wonder if this distinction did not also play a part in the different reactions to the ND speakers. Would also include Prof. Kaveny's thoughts around prophetic witmess - it seems linked to what Ann has contributed above.
Social Justice requires that one be Pro-Life from the beginning.Why would anyone put Catholicism in a box? Catholicism is about The Truth, and The Truth is "out". "It is Finished."-Christ
Here in the Archdiocese of Detroit we have tried to bridge this gap (between social justice/"peace and justice" and pro-life) by having an Office for Catholic Social Teaching and an Office for Catholic Social Action. We work closely together, offering this as an example to our parishes as an umbrella for the "dignity and life of every human person without exception, from conception to natural birth" and to "promote the common good," as the two core principles of Catholic social teaching are enunciated in the Compendium of the Social Doctrine of the Church.
It seems to me that the two strands of Catholicism can be roughly correlated with those who emphasize justice (the extreme pro-life folks) while those who emphasize charity are more likely to emphasize the other part of of the Church's social teachings, charitable acts.This presents a problem in practice because the pro- charity people.ask government to go beyond justice, to acts of charity. Many conservatives argue that the only function of government is to act justly. They therefore go on at great lengths about "give-away" government programs, and I must admit sometimes I think they have a point sometimes..
Sorry, but as historian I must take issue with Bill Mazzella's statement that the "two big wars and the holocaust came right out of Christendom." They did? In what sense did Hitler's pact with Stalin and the joint German and Russian invasions of Poland in 1939 come out of Christendom? In what sense did the Japanese invasion of China come out of Christendom? Was Pearl Harbor somehow an example of Japanese anti-Christianity?Or what about the first world war? Was the Anglo-German naval race somehow tied to Christendom? Or the British, French, and German squabbles over their colonial empires? The movements in the Balkans to free themselves first of the Ottoman empire, and later of the Austro-Hungarian empire? It's important to try NOT to confuse appeals made to religion (or anything else -- communism, racism, the American/British/French/German/Japanese/Chinese &c &c &c way of life with the causes of wars, either in the past or the future. And the appeals themselves must be taken with many grains of salt. Or consider the Thirty Years War war (1618-48) which is seen by many (too many) as essentially a religious war, and yet saw Cardinal Richilieu, who was running French foreign policy at the time, linking up with Gustavus Adolphus, the somewhat bloodthirsty Lutheran king of Sweden. Why? So that Catholic France could find help in fighting off the incursions of Catholic Spain and the Catholic Holy Roman Empire, for the simple reason that Catholic France did not want to be swallowed up by the two great Catholic powers that occupied its eastern and western borders. It's called Realpolitik, and religion has little to do with it save lend its support to nationalist rallying cries. As for the Holocaust -- granted that religion should never have let it happen, and granted the legacy of Christian anti-Semitism that helped enable it. But as Hannah Arendt and many others have pointed out, the Holocaust was in many ways based on science, or what passed for science, particularly in a post-Darwinian age, and the belief that Science (with a capital S) had proved beyond a doubt that some races were inferior to others, and the sooner they fade away, the better off we'll all be. For similar "scientific" -- or social "scientific" reasons, Stalin justified his murders of kulaks and others, and the Chinese not only sought to polish off millions of "class enemies" but also brought upon themselves the famine that killed 30 million or more people. Christendom, or indeed religion itself, had little to do with these crimes.
Christopher, I appreciate your citing history, lessons of which, we cite and benefit little. You have referred to particular incidents which I will look at further. Nonetheless, I am stunned by your apparent manipulations of things. The ".. British, French, and German squabbles over their colonial empires?" Were they not Christian? Germany was thoroughly Christian. So was Russia albeit suppressed. They were not that good before Lenin. The holocaust was based on science? With all due respect to Hannah, I beg to differ. Christendom made pre-baptized infants "children of the devil" until Vatican II. Augustine, decidedly was a misguided, arrogant person. He butchered Paul, not followed him. What an irony. The most admired person in Western religion demonized infants.Realpolitik?? What are we doing following a madman who let himself be crucified. Where was his practicality. If you need the concession let me say you have me on China, Japan and Stalin. Is that your point? And America, the land of evangelization fought a most uncivilized civil war. I know you clothe your rationalization with "granted that religion should not have." Or "save lend its support to nationalist rallying cries." The words "granted" and "but" are followed by things notably inexcusable. And is not "nationalism" a great evil indeed? Finally, did not emperors and kings make the ultimate call on orthodoxy." They don't call it the King James Bible for nothing.Christopher, I do appreciate the link to history. How else do we understand ourselves? More importantly it is that lack that results in our not understanding ourselves.
I particularly appreciate Cathy's final comment in the set-up ("...it would be a terrible thing for the Church to pit its social justice commitments and its pro-life commitments against one another") and Margaret's mention of Cardinal Bernardin and the consistent ethic of life.It seems so long ago that the seamless garment had resonance. It certainly didn't play long, did it? It is not frequently mentioned even in the interminable abortion threads at dotCommonweal.The consistent ethic was lambasted out of the gate by the most strident anti-abortion forces aligned with conservative Catholicism even as it was damned with faint praise by the most strident anti-anti-abortion forces aligned with progressive Catholicism. Each side seized on the consistent ethic as an opportunity to paint the other as hypocritical..."'They' posture as 'oh so concerned' about (the born/the unborn) but they coudn't care less about (the unborn/the born)."Joe Bernardin was exemplary in so many ways, not least the tone with he applied in addressing the life issues. He 'got' people for whom abortion was the touchstone issue and understood their dominant focus on legal proscription on abortion...even as they often villified him. He 'got' people who found opposition to abortion difficult to reconcile with their progressive alliances and sympathies...even as they were decidedly unenthusiastic about his inclusion of the unborn in the litany of the vulnerable and marginalized.His consistent ethic of life legacy, in my estimation, goes to a certain sensibility. He rejected the binary left/right, progressive/conservative framing of life issues and taught that they were all of a piece. Yet he refused to demonize those who were locked into rigid and unproductive frames.
Pope John Paul, the US Bishops, and Dorothy Day had the right idea: Catholicism means holding the whole social teaching together.In my understanding of Catholic theology, this skill of holding things together is pretty much the peculiarly Catholic skill,. The Trinity is three AND one, Jesus Christ is God AND man.Regarding the social issues, it seems to me that holding one or a few strands is not enough. Catholic neocons as well as Catholic prochoicers both make the mistake of thinking that they can choose to be unjust in some areas as long as they are activists in other areas. There can be a difference in emphasis among us but not, it seems to me, such a divide.
Of course they are not incompatible. The problem is that those who see this dichotomy from the social justice side often conclude that those who disagree with their policy prescriptions must ergo not believe or practice the social justice teachings of the Catholic Church.It is not surprising that the pro-life movement in the US is generally politically conservative. For all the claims about individual rights, the abortion rights movement is largely a creature of and propped up by, the state, and consevatives generally reject state solutions. They see a continuity between the social welfare state and abortion that political liberals don't. Look at the way we talk about the issue. It is never in moral or spiritual terms, but material terms. We don't talk about promoting a healthier and more chaste view sexuality and promote the family, we talk about "preventing" pregnancies. The social welfare state views babies as burdens first and people second.The more we promote dependence on the state for basic necessities I argue we don't promote social justice. At best, we promote social stagnation, and tend to prevent people from realizing their full potential as persons, which is after all the only reason social justice is important.
Mike McG - excellent points and agree. The old theological expression for these types of differences would be that the church's social justice/action theology is "both/and." Unfortunately, in the 1980's the church gradually or significantly moved away from both and to focus on a single issue. We sacrificed the gospel message and distilled down to single issues.There have been some excellent stories out of San Francisco about this transition - when dioceses began to close peace/justice departments and diverted all funding to anti-abortion efforts. Can't find the link or story but the chancellor of San Francisco had an excellent article about this change and transition.Someone above mentioned the current practice in Detroit - it would be helpful if the USCCB would adopt that as best practice not only for itself but also as an example for all dioceses.BTW - Bill, you might want to read a biography on Lenis - student at a Russian Orthodox seminary; troubled childhood, troubled seminary career. Some historians posit that his eventual sadistic behavior and actions stemmed from his reaction to the seminary, Russian Orthodoxy (he was not from a main line Russian ethnic group and suffered for that). Interesting ways that religion can be brutal to a person growing into maturity.
Thanks, Bill D., Jim P., Ann O., and Michael H. for setting me straight on terminology. I think I've got it sorted out (?). :) (Actually, your comments were very helpful. Thanks again.)Supplementing Mike McG's excellent comments on seamless garment and the CEL, I thought I'd mention that Orbis Books has pulled together all of Cardinal Bernardin's speeches on the CEL into a one-volume paperback titled "The Seamless Garment: Writings on the Consistent Ethic of Life." Published in 2008 (ISBN 157075764X), the book was edited by Thomas Nairn. The book has many things going for it, but I'll mention just one. Reading the speeches, which are provided in chronological order, allows one to follow the evolution of Cardinal Bernadin's thought as he worked to create a unified conceptual theory for addressing life issues. As to the CEL in practice, however, he recognized that there is not a one-size-fits-all solution to each of the life issues. IMO his passing was a great loss to the Church, but his passion about the CEL lives on in this compilation of his speeches.
I agree with Sean that people can rely too much on the state to solve social problems, which can make individuals feel they've been absolved from taking more personal responsibility for others, a la, "I don't need to help the poor; I already pay taxes." (In "A Christmas Carol," Scrooge declines to contribute to the poor because he already pays taxes to support the workhouses.)By the same token, relying on the state to pass laws that enforce a pro-life agenda might have much the same effect: "I worked hard to outlaw all abortions, and now my work is done." That'll reduce abortions, but to what extent will it help people see babies more as blessings than burdens, especially if the parents are out of work, single, don't have a lot of natural parenting instincts or have a severely handicapped child.
"Of course they are not incompatible. The problem is that those who see this dichotomy from the social justice side often conclude that those who disagree with their policy prescriptions must ergo not believe or practice the social justice teachings of the Catholic Church."Yes. Wait until the health care debate really gets cranked up in the coming weeks, and watch it happen here.
"It is not surprising that the pro-life movement in the US is generally politically conservative. For all the claims about individual rights, the abortion rights movement is largely a creature of and propped up by, the state, and consevatives generally reject state solutions. "I'm sure there has been some convergence as you describe. At the same time, it's important to recognize that the Democratic Party was substantially a pro-life party as recently as the early '70's, and that in large part because Catholics were part of the Democratic coalition. The party's strategic decision to realign itself as a pro-choice party, and its concomitant betrayal of Catholics, has been documented in Commonweal. http://www.commonwealmagazine.org/article.php3?id_article=1422&var_reche...(Sorry but the article is not available for free to the viewing public. But I assume we all subscribe!)
P.S., Christ believed in feeding the hungry while teaching them how to Fish.
The failure of Catholic social justice, perhaps most manifest in its pro-life wing, is the failure to clearly articulate how "social" or "communitarian" justice makes space for individual claims of conscience and freedom. In fact, I would argue that the word "justice" is basically being misused when it is applied to the concepts that are usually embodied by the term "social justice." A society that provides ample resources to ensure that mentally ill people have a safe place to live regardless of their functional status is a generous, egalitarian, and compassionate one. A society that forces them to inhabit such safe places (agreed to be charming, not abusive, etc.) would still be, in my view, deeply unjust given their claims to prefer living in their own disordered state.Nancy, I missed the part of the Bible where Jesus gave fishing lessons. I also seem to have missed the development in Protestant theology that rejected the doctrine of the Trinity. The two of you really take the cake for creative theological thinking.
"It is never in moral or spiritual terms, but material terms."Sean Hannaway: But isn't the underlying problem that the those who see this dichotomy feel it is inappropriate for the state to impose one kind of morality or spiruality on the citizens to the exclusion of other moralities? EG, the example David Nickol often points to regarding the Rabbinic Judiasm view of the rights of pre-born children.
It is clear the two are not only compatible but actually joined intellectually.The practical history of pro-lifers and social justice persons has not alays been smooth.I refernece the attempt of the Roundtable of Social Justice people at National Pastoral Life Center to bring these groups together in many areas.Here in NM, there was much friction I'm told becauaes the pro-life group thought that issue should be primary.The consistent ethic, as noted, saw the interrelationship but Bernandin was shot down by Law on common ground.So of course these two should be working together!But historixcal forces and personalities have made that path much rogher than it should be and we would all do well to think about making that unity happen on our part.
Barbara, "The mystery of the Holy Trinity is the central mystery of the Christian Faith and of Christian Life."-CCC,no.261 This is why we should not deny the Truth about the Holy Spirit, the Unitive, Creative Love of God, The Lord, The Giver of Life, who proceeds from The Father and The Son from the beginning.
And when you find something that I've written that denies the Trinity, be sure to let me know.
Off topic in a somewhat aging thread, I'm afraid, but back to Bill Mazella and "Christendom's" implication in the great crimes of the 20th century. Sorry if I misread you, but I thought -- probably wrongly -- that you were reflecting the popular modern superstition that religion in general (and Christianity in particular) is responsible for many, if not all, of the world's evils. My point in trying to show the falsity of this view was that while religion has often been used as a rallying cry in war, rapine, plunder, and so forth, it is by no means the only (or even most important) factor. So, as I suggested, Richilieu's alliance with the Lutherans against his fellow Catholics in the 17th century is evidence of a Realpolitik that owes nothing to his religious beliefs. Perhaps you meant that in the west, despite 2000 years or so of Christianity, it was still possible for the atrocities of the world wars, the Holocaust and others to take place, and that points to the failures of the churches, Catholic, Protestant, Orthodox, etc. If so, I would agree with you; but there's a great difference between saying that such things take place despite Christianity, and those saying (as contemporary superstition would have it) that they take place because of Christianity. As Christians, we certainly must acknowledge the historical horrors that have taken place in the name of religion. But if we were devout secularists, then we should also acknowledge the horrors that have taken place in the name of secularism -- Hitler, Lenin, Stalin, and Mao for starters. I don't see much evidence of that latter recognition, however.
Barbara, re: fishing lessons, didn't Jesus tell Peter where to place his net where he could catch more fish? This isn't the same as TEACHING Peter HOW to fish, just sort of acting as a kind of fish-finder for him. Luke 5: 1-8Meantime, if anybody can suggest a better lure for the local wide-mouth bass, please write me. I've been using a purple gummy work for years to good effect, but haven't had a bite all season.
I'm glad someone mentioned medical care, because there should be some mutual interest in the area.There is much grumbling here among my fellow seniors, as doctors move or retire, that new ones are reluctant to take on medicare/medicais patients.My guru on the Medical Center board tells me the demographics suggest that the availability of doctors and nurses will only get worse, and the problem of getting a physician will become far more difficult.So we need to think about this issue for children,m families, seniors, etc.Or will the continued ideological divides make things worse?
"My guru on the Medical Center board tells me the demographics suggest that the availability of doctors and nurses will only get worse, and the problem of getting a physician will become far more difficult."Hi, Bob, I've heard about a shortage of nurses for some time, but I didn't realize that there is also a doctor shortage.If the federal government diplaces private health plans, and caps the income of physicians as a way to contain medical costs, then Econ 101 suggests that candidates will be less attracted to medicine, and the shortage of doctors may become more acute.If there is a differential between what doctors from overseas can make here as opposed to their home countries, then perhaps we could jigger immigration quotas to allow foreign doctors to come here to take up the slack.
There is an acute shortage of primary care physicians and there has been for quite some time.

The error I'm getting from my compiler (M$ Visual Studio 2010) is this:

What are the advantages/disadvantages of Pex tubing? How does it compare to copper?
From Pex Information:
If you are only going to be doing a little bit of work, check with your local rental stores, you may be able to rent the tool for a decent price.
Another advantage to PEX if you're doing a from-scratch installation is that it's typically installed using a manifold at the water source with a run to each faucet. That approach significantly reduces pressure loss at one faucet when another faucet on the same branch is turned on, as often happens with copper plumbing.
You could do the same thing with copper, of course, but it would be prohibitively expensive in time and materials.
A huge disadvantage with PEX is that it is semi-transparent. If your water supply has nutrients in it and the PEX is installed so that light will get to it, you will find that algae (green), bacteria (black, orange or yellow) will grow inside it. It sloughs off in long, stringy goop similar to the biofilm that grows in diesel tanks that haven't been treated to prevent bacteria growth. Keep it well hidden in walls and away from crawlspace vents where sunlight can penetrate.
diy even has a question submitted on the subject
Keep squirrels away from it, they find it delectable.
Also another advantage listed is that there's no lead. That's true insofar as you stay away from the type that requires brass fittings.
Otherwise, you have a highly flexible, smooth bore water supply system that will allow for using smaller tubing, which can speed up hot water temperature delivery. It's cheap enough that you can do end-run (star) delivery to a central control manifold, typically each run will only have two joints, one at the manifold and one at the the coupling to the shutoff valve. You also don't have a problem with meth addicted copper thieves coming and stripping your house plumbing out if you leave it unattended (summer cottages, another reason iron ain't so bad).
There is one huge advantage I see just from reading these posts.
No More Copper Thieves!
I live in New Orleans and had to have my whole system redone because it was cut and stolen.
I know PEX is cheaper (specially considering the rising price of copper), easier to run and less noisy than copper but you have to buy a special crimping tool for the fittings (don't know how expensive the tool is). My only fear would be long term effects depending on water type. For instance I have very hard water (very high calcium content; I should NEVER have to worry about osteoporosis) and I wonder what will happen 10, 15, 20 years down the road to the PEX pipe based on the minerals in the water.
I'm also not sure if there are any long term health effects from having water run over PVC. Not sure what kind of chemicals leach into the water over time. I'm 99.99% sure it's safe though.
There are many examples of building products that claimed to be "the wave of the future" and turned out to be utter failures, sometimes dangerous. (polybutylene plumbing, aluminum wiring, and asbestos building products to name a few.) Despite the manufacturer's glowing claims, the actual long-term characteristics and behavior of PEX tubing cannot yet be known.
One of copper's distinct advantages is its long history of solid performance and desirability.
With pex pipe you just need shark bite fittings . Don't require special tools for installation.. shark bite fittings are considerable more expensive than others but you can fix a leak without ever turning the water off if you like
Get a pinch clamp tool, like this one, and a pipe cutter. Those are the tools you'll need. One tool works for all size pinch clamps.
If you have to use a slip on style fitting, smear the outside of the pipe with plumbers grease.
From comparing chart PEX vs Copper
PEX tubing has much much better freeze burst resistance properties than copper. Its very important especially for people who lives in cold climate areas.
There is a notable potential downside with PEX (and I'm saying this as someone who's chosen it for his own house).
PEX has the lowest strength of the three most common materials. If I recall my numbers correctly, copper will burst at something over 5,000 PSI. CPVC at around 3,000, and PEX at around 1,200.
Of course, if you get 1,200 PSI in your system to begin with, you've got bigger problems. But still...
Here in upstate NY (it's -12 tonight which I will admit is unusually low) the risk of copper is freezing and bursting. That happened to me many times until I discovered Pex, which will expand several times its size without breaking and then return to its normal size. (Hmm, what does that bring to mind. But I digress.) Pex is so easy to work with and so much cheaper than copper, I don't know why you would not choose it. BTW, I have taken other measures to prevent freezing -- our hot water heating system is still copper but we have put in antifreeze, which works well. But, of course, you can't do that with domestic and live to see Superbowl 51. Use Pex.
Copper developes pin holes leaks.... PEX doesn't. Copper's proven track record is pocked with major water leak damage.
Copper piping has been around for at least 60 years and the only time you get pinholes in copper is because you probably used the wrong thickness of copper. If a solder joint is properly soldered then it will never leak. Ive been working on domestic hot water systems of every size for over 40 years and have never had any build up of any kind on the inside of the piping. That usually only happens on the larger street mains because the water moves slowly compared to a house. Copper has withstood the test for over 60 years. Pex can not make any such claims. It may be cheaper but it it may cost you in the long run. I would take copper over pex anytime UNLESS there is a good chance the pipes could freeze. I know pex can stretch much wider then copper and return to normal size.

I'm curious about how some operators work (+, -) in terms of objects.
I've always wondered how EventHandlers work by adding a method:
Foo.Action += new FooActionHandler
If not an Event, what about returning a comparison?
DateTime - DateTime
That returns a TimeSpan object, and I'm a bit baffled as to how that's possible. I use these kinds of methods all the time but I've never understood the inner workings of them. How would I create my own class to do something like this?

Antibiotic Overuse
Q: I just returned from the doctor and was sure he would give my five-year-old daughter an antibiotic for her cold. He told me they were not necessary for all types of infections. What do you think?
A: Although you may not be happy with my answer, I agree with your doctor that antibiotics are not necessary for all infections. There are medications available for many symptoms and diseases, but I think that we should always be cautious, use medicines appropriately, keep aware of their side effects, and monitor their use closely.
Antibiotics are one of the greatest advances in medicine during this past century. However, it is important that they are used correctly or more harm than good may result. Parents and doctors alike should be mindful of overusing antibiotics in kids with various infections, such as ear infections or colds. If antibiotics are taken when they are not needed, bacteria germs may develop resistance. This means an antibiotic may not work well when the doctor really wants to use it to treat a specific infection. Of course, there are also potential side effects associated with them.
Educating parents and doctors alike should help to reduce overuse. Both need to understand the role of antibiotics in the treatment of infectious diseases. Parents should always use an antibiotic as prescribed by the doctor. Do not keep it in the medicine cabinet after the infection is treated and do not ever self-medicate your child or yourself. Good judgment, a clear understanding of science, and good doctor-patient communication are critical in choosing when and how to use an antibiotic.

The Grandaddy Of Them All!Written by on June 1, 2006 The 57th Annual Grand National Roadster Show
What's 9 feet tall and would look pretty good in your living room-besides a Christmas tree? How about the coveted America's Most Beautiful Roadster trophy? If you already have one or two of these you know what I'm talkin' about, but if not, that's what was up for grabs at this years Grand National Roadster show.
This show is the longest running-57 years, in fact-indoor car show around and is one of if not the most prestigious shows that caters to hot rods, customs, motorcycles, and, of course, trucks. It's been awhile since a truck won the big trophy, since it needs to be a roadster pickup, but Richard Peters did it two years in a row-in 1958 and '59.
The show was again held at the Pomona Fairplex, which has been home to the event for a few years now and shares the same grounds as the famous Pomona Swap Meet and the ever-pleasing NHRA Museum. With the reality automotive cable TV shows being all the rage, there were many stars on hand to sign autographs and answer the questions of star-struck spectators.
Trucks seemed to be the minority at the show, but that's not to say that what was there wasn't nice. Despite the low numbers, the quality of those in attendance were quite high and we all know that behind every nice show car there is a truck that made it all possible.

As tribes around the nation gain momentum in their efforts to develop energy resources on their lands, some industry sources say a new level of power and political influence could emerge for American Indians.
William Brown, with Sage West Consultants & The Climate Reality Project, said there will be non-Native American investors to compete with, however, and accurately predicting how it will shake out is difficult.
�Economics will tell the tale,� Brown said.
At the very least, tribes are moving from passive providers of land to actual energy development, sale and transmission, said Tracey LeBeau, director for the U.S. Department of Energy�s Office of Indian Energy Policy and Programs
And some tribes stand to see substantial economic improvements, industry sources said, including Carolyn Stewart, managing partner of Red Mountain Partners, a consulting firm that works with tribes on renewable-energy projects.
Energy is, and will be, �one of the most promising tribal industries in the next century,� said Tse Chi �Chad� Yen, scholarship coordinator for the American Indian College Fund.
One only has to look in Durango�s backyard to see the potential.
Ute lessons
Less than a century ago, the Southern Utes had some reservation land, but no official infrastructure and hardly a dime in income. But today, the tribe has substantial influence, local business and government leaders say, The Southern Ute Indian Tribe is La Plata County�s largest employer, offering one of the best benefit packages available in the county, said Joe Keck, director of the Small Business Development Center of Southwest Colorado. And its membership is estimated to be collectively worth billions.
The tribe is behind about 100 corporations, agencies and non-profit organizations and does business in more than a dozen states. Though its enterprises reach into a variety of fields, products and services, from real estate to casino gaming, the tribe�s success is built on energy.
About 93 percent of the tribe�s profits come from �conventional energy,� or oil and natural gas, said Bob Zahradnik, director of the tribe�s far-reaching business arm, the Growth Fund.
The exact magnitude of those profits, however, is a well-guarded secret that�s rarely, if ever, publicly disclosed.
Not only does the tribe develop and produce natural gas and oil from within its local reservation boundaries, but it also has energy interests that extend beyond Colorado�s borders, including in the Gulf of Mexico and in Idaho.
Other tribes have been eyeing their success with hopes of recreating it, said LeBeau. And as the nation has set its sights on clean energy, they�ve adapted.
While many tribes are working to develop conventional energy resources on their land, several tribal officials in the Southwest said they were instead focused on renewable-energy sources because they are more in line with cultural convictions about environmental preservation.
�Renewable-energy development is more consistent with tribes� reverence for nature and Earth,� Stewart said.
A potential savior?
William Brown, a former U.S. Geological Survey employee and consultant with Sage West Consultants & The Climate Reality Project, said renewable sources require far less land than coal and natural gas and have fewer adverse impacts.
�The (environmental impact) numbers are so vast for fossil fuels, I don�t think people even comprehend it,� Brown said.
Tribes today are tapping into biomass, water, air, geothermal, wind and solar resources. And some, including the Ewiiaapaayp Band of Kumeyaay Indians in Alpine, Calif., and the Pueblo of Jemez in New Mexico, are pinning their hopes on renewable-energy projects.
The California tribe�s land can be reached only by a 12-mile dirt access road. There are no paved roads, and the reservation is home to weathered stick-built homes that have no sewer systems, telephone service or electricity. The tribe long has struggled to develop with no income to drive change, said Will Micklin, the tribe�s chief executive officer.
�I don�t know if our reservation ever could be an economic center, but we would dearly like to make it more livable,� Micklin said.
Many have left, leaving only a handful of elderly members on the reservation.
Hope for the future rests with a planned wind development that would bring 51 megawatts of energy to their reservation and nearly 100,000 homes in San Diego through a deal with Iberdrola Renewables.
�We really need infrastructure,� Micklin said, �Roads, telephone service, the ability to operate businesses.�
The Pueblo of Jemez has about 2,200 members in the Village of Walatowa who live under less dire circumstances, but the pueblo�s financial position isn�t much better. The pueblo employs few people and has little money to care for the valley the tribe has occupied for more than 800 years since they migrated there from the Four Corners. Worse, more than 5,000 acres of forestland on the reservation was severely damaged by wildfire in recent years and requires costly rehabilitation work, said the pueblo�s department of resource protection archaeologist, Christopher Toya.
Meanwhile, the reservation�s drainage systems are aging, threatening its agricultural pursuits, said the pueblo�s agriculture range tech, John Romero.
Their hopes rest in a $5 million geothermal project that could power parts of New Mexico and the Los Alamos National Laboratory. They�re also considering a small commercial solar development on the reservation with hopes it might pay for improvements to the sewer systems serving the homes on the reservation, said Greg Kaufman, director of the pueblo�s department of resource protection.
Derrick Loretto, a technician for the Pueblo of Jemez geothermal project, said it would directly create a handful of tribal jobs and could create up to 2,000 more jobs as they construct greenhouses, fish farms and a hot springs facility around it.
Taking the reins
Energy could help many of the nation�s tribes find financial stability and put them in a new position of power and influence, Stewart said.
�They could contribute in a significant way,� Stewart said. �The resources are there.�
The trend also could be a way for tribes to protect themselves from history repeating itself, some tribal leaders said. The nation does have a history of taking, sometimes forcibly, what it needs from Native Americans.
At least a few tribes have decided it�s better to do it their way than risk being forced.
�It always has been a fear for our people that our resources could be taken from us,� said William Anderson, chairman of the Moapa Band of Paiutes in Nevada, �If we�re not using the resources and there�s great need in the surrounding communities, (the government) can justify it.�
Anderson said they hope to lead the way with their two massive solar projects that will power the reservation and send energy to Los Angeles.
�You can�t take away something we�re already using,� Anderson said. �And we want to make sure we�re helping ourselves, the environment and our surrounding communities in the process.�
Stewart concurred and said tribes she works with generally are more interested in helping to solve national energy woes �if they can control the process and pace, and move forward on their own terms.�

Important Notice
How do I know if I am the "right type" for this mode of learning?
People learn in different ways and at different rates. Some students enjoy listening to lectures, others draw concepts in their notebooks, yet others enjoy working in small groups. Visual learners tend to do best in Learn By Term courses. Others learn to adapt. Learn By Term is not restricted by time or location, and as a result, it is a convenient learning environment for adults who have busy lives. However, it may not be right mode of learning for you. Find out about your learning preference by taking the Learning Styles Inventory developed by Barbara Soloman and Richard Felder, Index of Learning Styles.
Learn By Term is different in many respects from the traditional face-to-face learning we're all used to, primarily in the way we get our information and how we interact with instructors and classmates. Many people say they learn more Learn By Term, and their retention is better too. These are the traits that successful online students possess, to varying degrees:
These questions may help you decide if Learn By Term learning is for you:
Most of online learning happens on your schedule. You'll need to be self-directed and motivated to complete activities on schedule and initiate the communication required to be successful. You'll be responsible for creating the structure to finish each course.
Along with having access to a computer and not being overwhelmed by typing, Learn By Term learners should be comfortable with internet browsing and searching, email, sending and reading attachments, word processing, and sometimes downloading and installing software plug-ins (a normally simple but sometimes intimidating task).
Reading can play a large part in any class, and especially online. The ability to read and comprehend subject matter without it being a chore is critical to your success.
In most cases writing is the primary method of communication in Learn By Term classes, so you should be at ease with writing to express your thoughts, share ideas, and ask questions.
If you typically don't hesitate to seek help when you need it you'll do fine. Since you'll be in an elearning environment it's important to let your instructor and classmates know when you need help. Remember that they won't be able to see your looks of doubt, confusion, or other body language to tell when things aren't going well.
Interaction with instructors and classmates in Learn By Term is often an integral part of the learning experience. Absent is the in-person contact - being able to see facial expressions, hear reactions, and speak. Campus life may be different or non-existent too.
Like a traditional school you'll need to set aside adequate time for study. You may discover that you need to be online frequently to complete assignments or communicate with classmates and instructors. You can plan to spend at least as much time working assignments and studying as you would with a traditional course, and you'll be setting your own pace in many instances.
If you're satisfied with your answers to these questions, you're likely to be satisfied with a Learn By Term learning course. The link below provides essential student support information to help you decide about taking online courses and what it takes to succeed.

Select an editable cell in an editable grid (with GridInlineEditor).3. Select the other radio button in the group.Both become selected, and cannot be unselected. If in step 2, I select combo box, spinner box, somewhere else on the screen, the group toggles just fine. I have only been able to reproduce by selecting an editable cell within a grid (with a GridInlineEditor).ToggleGroupError.jpg
30 Jan 2012 9:55 AM #2
When I inspected the HTML I noticed that there is no name attribute for the input elements. Standard HTML uses input name to group radio buttons, but I'm guessing GXT is using javascript to handle this. Now if I go an set the name in the GXT Radio() widgets (those names get set) and it seems to fix the issue. I'm guessing the bug still exists in GXT javascript, but HTML handles it.
Is there a reason GXT doesn't set the name on inputs?
Besides possible naming collisions, is there any issues I have setting names on these input elements?
3 Sep 2013 2:24 AM #3
This example says "// we can set name on radios or use toggle group".
Same does description at class Radio: "... Radio grouping is handled automatically by the browser if you give each radio in a group the same name or use ToggleGroup."
@nbuesing: Did u use ToggleGroup?

This Week's Liturgy
September 27th, 2015 (see other dates)
Twenty-Sixth Sunday in Ordinary Time
Discussion Questions for Reading 1There are many spiritual gifts at work in the parish. Among these gifts are: preaching, teaching, healing, celebrating, counseling, peacemaking, and leading. What examples of spiritual gifts have you observed in your parish? What gifts have you shared with the parish community? Why is it important that Christians follow Moses' example of generously sharing their gifts?
If you could have any one spiritual gift in abundance, what would you want it to be? Why? Who or what might help you to grow in this gift?
Reading 1 Numbers 11:25-29
Reading 1 ReflectionJust as people sometimes envy their neighbor's possessions, they may also envy the spiritual gifts of others. This story about Moses is a wonderful example of a religious leader who wanted to share his gift of prophecy with many others. However, some of the Israelites are jealous of Moses' gift. They want it to be kept by the privileged few. Moses tells them that he wishes the Lord would bestow his spirit on all the Israelites.
We can follow the example of Moses by sharing our gifts generously in the Church, and by avoiding any envy of those whose gifts may appear to be greater than our own.
Discussion Questions for Reading 2Look back over James' letter. What one statement do you think is the most effective warning to the unjust rich? Why? What do you know about how migrant farm workers are sometimes treated unjustly? In what other occupations might workers be mistreated or cheated of just wages? How do you think a worker who has been cheated by a rich employer might feel about this reading?
In what ways do you share material goods with others? How do you think people your age can strengthen themselves against the temptation to gain riches unjustly?
Reading 2 James 5:1-6
Reading 2 ReflectionOnce again Saint James is warning Christians about practicing the faith they profess. The rich who crave for expensive possessions and store up wealth for themselves should fear God's judgment. Those who gained their wealth by cheating their workers should weep and repent. James compares those who live in selfish luxury with calves fattened for the slaughter.
This harsh warning needs to be heard by all Christians who live in a materialistic society. We are not to steal from or cheat others of a just wage. Whatever money and possessions we have are to be shared with those in need. By doing so, we "store up riches in heaven" (Matthew 6:20).
Discussion Questions for GospelRecall some of your experiences of having substitute teachers in religion or other classes. How did you and your classmates treat these substitutes? Why? When new pastors or other parish leaders arrive, how do you think they should be treated? How might we apply what Jesus says in today's gospel to the ways in which we support those who serve in his name?
In what ways can people your age give a good example to young children at home, at school, or in the community?
What does Jesus say about those who lead the little ones astray?
Why do you think Jesus uses exaggerated examples to call our attention to how our bodies can lead us into sin? Name some of the ways you have used your hands, feet, and eyes to help make God's reign visible to others.
Gospel Mark 9:38-43, 45, 47-48
Gospel ReflectionLike Moses before him, Jesus wants God's healing power to be shared by as many as possible. When a disciple complains about a man who is healing in Jesus' name but who is not one of their company, Jesus assures him, "Anyone who is not against us is with us." Doing good is not to be restricted to an exclusive few. Giving good example to the "little ones" or those of simple faith will be rewarded. Anyone who leads them astray deserves punishment.
Since our hands, our feet, and our eyes can lead us into sin, we are to use them in ways that honor God's Kingdom of love, justice, and peace. By doing so, we help to make God's reign visible in our midst.
Proclaiming Faith Activities for Primary Grades
Sharing Our GiftsWrap a box to look like a gift, but make the top easy to remove. Ask the children to name some of the gifts that God has given them. Then give the children some clay and have them create a symbol of their gift. Call each child up one at a time and have him/her show the symbol he/she made, tell what it represents, and tell how he/she can share that gift with others. Then have that child place his/her clay symbol in the box.
Honoring God with Our Hands, Feet, and EyesAsk the children to think of ways they can honor God using their hands. Then provide them with the outline of a hand and have them write or draw this on the hand. Do the same for feet and eyes. Place these on a bulletin board or around the room to remind children that we must use our bodies to honor God.
Proclaiming Faith Activities
Sharing Our GiftsAre you aware that you have been given, like Moses, certain spiritual gifts? With your partner or small group, go over the following list. Help each other recognize how these gifts are present in your partners or group members.
Then describe in writing one specific way you will use these gifts this week to serve God and others.
1) The gift of prophecy
One of the meanings of prophecy is to speak, sing, or dance with enthusiasm in praise of God.
How might you use this gift?
2) The gift of healing
One way of healing others is to listen patiently and with compassion to their troubles and complaints.
How might you use this gift?
3) The gift of prayer
One way of practicing this gift is to offer faithful intercessory prayer for people who are sick, homeless, addicted, or cut off from others. How might you use this gift?
Recognizing True RichesMedia advertising often makes it difficult for people to recognize true riches. Design a web site, a bingo or other board game, or a billboard that helps young people to recognize true riches. Focus on one of the following categories of riches.
The riches of the environment (fresh air, clean water, topsoil for growing crops, species of birds and animals)
The riches of human laborers (respecting the dignity of farm workers, domestic servants, factory workers, and others)
The riches of inner beauty and strength (developing the virtues and gifts that cannot be "moth-eaten" or "corroded" like silver and gold)
Decide how you will share your completed project.
For Bibles and other scripture resources, please see the Sadlier Religion Catalog.

There was recently another release of LibreOffice, but it is a pain to have to manually go to their website and download the packages every time there is a new release. Is there a PPA that always has the latest version of LibreOffice?
There is an official LibreOffice PPA here.
You need to add
More information:
To add ppa and upgrade libre office using command line:
As of July 25th 2013, the following PPA offers the Release version of LibreOffice:
That will leave you with LibreOffice 4.1.
A PPA is now available for 4.1.0. To add it, just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:
For complete instructions on how to install the beta2 of Libreoffice 4.1.0, check out LibreOffice Pre-Releases
I have searched high and low, and I can't find a PPA for 4.1.x. Now if you would like to install it, (the documentation doesn't mention removing prior installation) I would recommend that you remove previous versions before installing this one.
To install LibreOffice 4.1.0 Beta 1 on Ubuntu 13.04, 12.10, and 12.04, do this. Just press Ctrl+Alt+T on your keyboard to open Terminal. When it opens, run the command(s) below:
For 32 bit systems:
For 64 bit systems:
Extract the archive:
Install LibreOffice 4.1.0:
As of June 13, 2013 it still not available in the pre-release PPA. Once available will update the answer.
The main LibreOffice PPA is for "test builds and backports", including "alpha and beta releases!".
If you want less-bleeding edge, it includes links to per-version stable PPAs, e.g. https://launchpad.net/~libreoffice/+archive/libreoffice-4-1 for LibreOffice 4.1.
If you wish to use a Pre-Release (Alpha, Beta or Pre-Release version) you can use the following PPA:
This will give you the latest Pre-Release version available. It works perfectly with LibreOffice 4.2.x (At this moment). If you get any problems related to broken packages or the likes you can force the upgrade procedure which fixes any related problems with the already installed packages. In the case however I would recommend using
Of course this is only in the worst case scenario but always remember to read the recommendations of aptitude before proceeding which mentions which packages will be removed, upgraded and installed.
