"Et tu, Brute": JC Murray vs. Niebuhr
A little postscript to Jackson Lears nuanced critical article on Reinhold Niebuhr in the latest issue of Commonweal. John Courtney Murray was, Id say, the only Catholic public intellectual in the post-war years. Among the essays collected to form the volume We Hold These Truths was the one (available here) in which Murray criticized what he called the new morality that had undone the old morality whose biblical fundamentalism was paired with an individualism that led its adherents to believe that a direct transference of personal values into social life was possible: in principle it would tolerate nothing less than Christian perfection as a social standard. The new morality was to be praised for having gone beyond that view, but Murray had his reservations about the alternative it represented:
The avowed purpose of the newer American morality is to reckon with the full complexity of man's nature and of human affairs. Hence against the absolutism of the old morality, in which the contingent facts got lost under insistence on the absolute precept, the new morality moves towards a situationalism, in which the absoluteness of principle tends to get lost amid the contingencies of fact. Against the abstract fundamentalist literalism of the old morality the new system is consciously pragmatist; not the wording of the precept but a calculus of the consequences of the act is the decisive moral norm. Whereas the old morality saw things as so simple that moral judgment was always easy, the new morality sees things as so complicated that moral judgment becomes practically impossible. The final category of moral judgment is not "right" or "wrong" but "ambiguous."
Murray called the holders of this position ambiguists, and about them he had this to say:
Their flashes of insight are frequent enough; but in the end the fog closes down. They are great ones for the facts, against the fundamentalists, and great ones for "conscience," against the cynics. They insist on the values of pragmatism against the absolutists; but they resent the suggestion that they push pragmatism to the point of a relativism of moral values. My main difficulty, however, is that I never know what, in their argument, is fact and what is moral category (surely there is a difference), or where the process of history ends and the moral order begins (surely there must be such a point).When they undertake to describe the historical-political situation for which policy is to be framed, one has the same feeling that comes on seeing a play by Sartre. No human characters are on the stage, only Sartre's philosophical categories. So, in the ambiguist descriptions, the factual situation always appears as a "predicament," full of "ironies," sown with "dilemmas," to be stated only in "paradox," and to be dealt with only at one's "hazard," because in the situation "creative and destructive possibilities" are inextricably mixed, and therefore policy and action of whatever kind can only be "morally ambiguous."But this is to filter the facts through categories. So far as one can see by an independent look "out there," the dilemmas and ironies and paradoxes are, like the beauty of the beloved, in the eye of the ambiguist beholder. They represent a doctrinaire construction of the facts in terms of an antecedent moral theory. And every set of facts is constructed in such a way as to make the moral verdict "ambiguous" a foregone conclusion.The ambiguist rightly puts emphasis on the complexity of the situations with which foreign policy has to deal; no one could exaggerate the complexity hidden under the phrase, "the cold war." But does the fact of complexity justify the vocabulary of description or the monotonous moral verdict? It is as if a surgeon in the midst of a gastroenterostomy were to say that the highly complex situation in front of him is so full of paradox ("The patient is at once receiving blood and losing it"), and irony ("Half a stomach will be better than a whole one") and dilemmas ("Not too much, nor too little, anesthesia") that all surgical solutions are necessarily ambiguous. Complicated situations, surgical or moral, are merely complicated. It is for the statesman, as for the surgeon, to master the complications and minister as best he can to the health of the body, politic or physical. The work may be done deftly or clumsily, intelligently or stupidly, with variant degrees of success or failure; but why call it in either case "ambiguous"? The philosophers of moral ambiguity will, of course, say that the ambiguity, properly speaking, is not in the political situation but in political man, who carries into politics the paradox, irony, and ambiguous amalgam of virtue and corruption that reside in his own nature (or in the human "self," as the ambiguists prefer to say, since they have a peculiar meaning all their own for the word "nature"). There you have it.
Murrays final critique is that the ambiguist contradicts himself:
To this concept of man's nature the critical argument comes back. The ambiguist indicts the fundamentalist and the secular liberal for their one-dimensional views of man. But he does not recognize that the same indictment recoils on his own head. He easily disposes of all the utopianisms, both "hard" and "soft," that result from the one-dimensional fundamentalist and secular liberal views. He then spins an enormously complex analysis of the "real" nature of man in personal and political life. And at the end of it (this is the real paradox) he has again compressed the moral life of man into one dimension. Inescapably, beyond all help of divine graceand even further beyond all help from human reason and freedomthe life of man, personally and politically, is lived in the single moral dimension of ambiguity. He who relishes irony should relish thisthat the whole complicated argument against simplistic theories should result in the creation of a theory that is itself simplistic; that the smashing attack on the bright and brittle illusion of utopianism should win its victory under the banner of an opposite illusion that is marshy and murky but no less an illusion.
Any doubt that Murray included Niebuhr among the ambiguists was removed when he wrote:
The Protestant moralist is disturbed by the gulf between the morality of individual and collective man. He is forever trying somehow to close the gap. Forever he fails, not only in doing this but even in seeing how it could possibly be done. Thus he is driven back upon the simplist category of "ambiguity." Or he sadly admits an unresolvable dichotomy between moral man and immoral society.
In 1960, Philip Scharper, the editor at Sheed and Ward responsible for seeing Murrays book into print, wrote and asked Murray if he should ask Reinhold Niebuhr for a blurb for We Hold These Truths. Murray replied that it was inadvisable to do so: Reason: I have found out that he was a bit miffed by my articles on moral ambiguism. He thinks there was an attack on him; and his reaction was, Et tu, Brute (since he is, in fact, my friend).

Thanks, Joseph, for recalling Murray's championing of the power of human reason to unravel complex problems as the counterpoint to circular, and at times, discouraging and ambiguous analysis. Murray showed how to do this in many ways, but none so well as his extraordinary theological book, "The Problem of God", published shortly before his untimely death....... Murray's confidence in our reasoning powers, nurtured in his thorough Jesuit intellectual training, sustained him during his unjustified suspension by Ottaviani and gave him the tenacious confidence to press relentlessly, as he did, for Vatican II's stunning position on religious liberty. ........Niebuhr's inevitable "ambiguity" greatly influenced his contemporary, Hans Morgenthau, the father of modern realist international relations theory that still dominates US foreign policy. Ideas certainly have consequences. I studied Niebuhr and Morgenthau's writings closely in 1965 with an Auschwitz survivor who had taught with Morgenthau briefly. I felt overwhelmed, thinking international relations were too complicated for rational analysis and evil too elusive to predict........ By sheer luck, two years later at Harvard Law School, I had a chance one-on-one encounter with Gen. Bobbie Cutler, Eisenhower's WW II aide and the first US National Security Adviser. He was then Chairman of the First Nat'l Bank of Boston. I asked him how was it possible for him to have dealt with so many different and unexpected international problems, especially since he was unfamilar with much of the background of the problems. He calmly and confidentally said the problems were surely complicated, but when looked at calmly and analytically in their component parts, the problems could be comprehended and solutions identified. I have found him to be right mostly in my own experience.......... I believe Cutler was an example of Murray's confidence in human reason. Hopefully, more of our leaders will emulate Murray's confidence in reasoning and courage in action and not despair in the "ambiguity".
Fascinating post, thanks. I am intrigued by this topic as it mirrors much of today's debates and I think a longstanding thread in American culture and thought. I confess to having more sympathy with the "ambiguists" (great moniker) since the fundamentalists (or whatever they should be called) have wrought so much damage in recent years (see: Iraq, e.g.), and the devotion to "principle" seems to thwart so many efforts to ameliorate our various crises, or even to contribute to agreeing on how to find a way forward. A couple questions come to mind:If Murray critiqued the ambiguists and fundamentalists, what did he propose as the alternative? Also, who was Murray referring to on the fundamentalist side? And who would have been considered representatives of the Niebuhrians then -- Ike and the like? The Dulleses? Of course it would be interesting to speculate on how Murray would view today's actors.
CORRECTION: Gen. Cutler spoke to me "confidently", not "confidentially". That should teach me not to blog before I have my first cup of morning coffee!
"John Courtney Murray was, Id say, the only Catholic public intellectual in the post-war years."I'd say that Maritain was also. And he was influential not only in the U. S. and Europe, but influenced the U. N. mightily. Plus Maritain had a lot of influence in the art world, and he was a friend of Paul VI who treasured his opinions generally.
Yes, I'd agree about Maritain, but I was thinking mainly about the US.
Fr. Komonchak: "John Courtney Murray was, I'd say, the only Catholic public intellectual in the post-wars years."Really?But what exactly does a Catholic intellectual have to do in your estimate, Fr. Komonchak, to be termed by you a public intellectual? Or perhaps you meant to say the only Catholic theologian who was a public intellectual in the post-war years.Consider the case of Walter J. Ong, S.J. (1912-2003). He received his Ph.D. from Harvard University, and his doctoral dissertation was published in 1958 in two volumes by Harvard University Press. So most people would consider Ong to have been a scholar and an intellectual.Over the years, starting in the 1940s, Ong published numerous articles and book reviews in AMERICA, COMMONWEAL, and SATURDAY REVIEW.At different times over the years, starting in the 1940s, different lectures or publications by Ong were reported in TIME and NEWSWEEK and elsewhere.One of Ong's articles in AMERICA was reprinted in at least three different newspapers shortly after it was published in 1958.Over the years 1957 to 1968, Ong published four collections of his own essays and two collections that he edited, all of which were aimed at a broad reading audience. For example, FRONTIERS IN AMERICAN CATHOLICISM (Macmillan, 1957) and the edited collection DARWIN'S VISION AND CHRISTIAN PERSPECTIVES (Macmillan, 1960).In 1964, Ong delivered the Terry Lectures at Yale University. His 1964 Terry Lectures were published by Yale University Press in 1968 as THE PRESENCE OF THE WORD: SOME PROLEGOMENA FOR CULTURAL AND RELIGIOUS HISTORY. If you are interested in seeing a bibliography of Ong's publications that is arranged in chronological order by the year of publication, check out Thomas M. Walsh's bibliography of Ong's publications that is available at the Ong Center website at Saint Louis University.
Murray says on p. 275 of the Chapter that "In its mood the old morality was subjectivist. Technically it would be called a "morality of intention," It set primary and controlling value on a sincerity of interior motive. . ."Yay, Murray! These days there aren't many ethicists who see that there is such an ethical system in which "good" and "evil" refer to the moral qualities of intentions, not just to that which is done or not done. I blame Anscombe for this narowing of morality. Her fine little work "Intention" which has had a huge influence both inside and outside the Church, is concerned mainly with the goodness or evil of the work done. Folks call her a Thomist, but as I learned him, morality encompasses *both* intention and object of intention. So it is subjective in one part and objective in another. Thus an intention can be good, while what is done is evil, and vice versa. This causes a lot of confusion even among Catholics these days.
I once tried to get into a lecture by Ong at a Modern Language Assn. convention (they're mammoth ones of language teachers), but it was crammed. I knew he was big in literary studies, but had no idea his influence extended into other fields.
It strikes me that Murray, in the post war years(in need of definition) operated in the time frame of many more "cefrtainties."Projecting how he'd look at things now IMO says more about what we think of today.BTW, since then, it strikes me also that Dave Tracy is the great American intellectual theologian, though a day may come when a woman will be so recognized.
By the way, in England Anscombe was a political activist, most famous for trying to get Oxford to cancel it's award of an honorary degree to Pres. Truman -- because she opposed the bomb. These days Michael Dummett, also an English, Catholic analytic philosopher-logician has also been an activist who has written a lot about immigration and immigration law. He was knighted because of all this.And we should also mention the Canadian Charles Taylor whose works are hugely influential outside of the Church.Then there was the Canadian Marshall McLuhan, a giant in communications theory and on the relationship of communications and culture. Also an Oxbridge productInteresting how Oxbridge, secular schools, have produced all four of them..
I have trouble figuring out just which groups of thinkers Murray is talking about when he refers to the "old morality" and the "new morality". Sometimes he seems to be definitely talking about the scriptural fundamentalists (old) and those who derive from them, yet he also seems to admit some other sort of new fundamentalists There are other classes talked about, and it's hard for me to understand how they're related.Just what are the basic distinctions he's making here?
I sympathize with the ambiguist outlook. I wish there were more among today's public intellectuals willing to articulate the infinite complexities of life and the near impossibility of finding reasonable moral positions. It is almost never necessary to take a firm moral position on anything.Of course, politicians need to make clear moral diagnoses continually. For them it is almost never possible not to take a moral position.
David ==Which problems do you have in mind? I agree that there are some difficult ones, but in most cases there are good reasons to choose one course over another.yes, politicians face many moral problems, but i'm not sure they see them that way. Now I'm being the cynic.
Ann, I was trying to be sarcastic about politicians, who state everything in moral terms for show. If they were truly moral people, they could not be politicians.In the real world of contending human priorities, a singular morality probably does not exist. Any position can probably be defended from some moral ground, just as it can be from some logical ground. In the end, it's all pragmatics. Morality, I imagine, can serve only as a guide to individual behavior. And no individual can say what is moral for any other individual.
At the risk of terrible oversimplification, let me offer a few observations about morality and political practice. In any political society that has a defensible title to legitimacy, (one that is non-tyrannical, that accepts responsibility for protecting the lives and basic dignity of all who dwell within it, non-aggression against other legitimate states,etc.) there are any number of moral restraints upon the public policies that it can rightly adopt. But these constraints are insufficient to determine which policies it would be beneficial to adopt and which ones would be harmful.All sensible public policies aim to address the relevant circumstances for which they are framed. They all come into being against the backdrop of past events that have affected the society's well-being. And they are meant to bring about future benefits. But of course circumstances change, some rather quickly and some more slowly. So all such policies, however well designed they may be, are subject to becoming outmoded. Put another way, they are all the outcome of deliberations about how to avoid past defects and promote future goods. By their nature, therefore, they are fallible. And furthermore, there are always some plausible alternatives to them, so that well founded opposition to them is always possible.All this amounts to saying that there are some policies that are clearly immoral, there is no way to certify that any policy is exactly the sole policy that is morally defensible. If this amounts to "paraqdox" or "ambiguity" so be it.
An added comment or two to the remarks I've just made. Consider the matter of state budgets or tax codes. Clearly, there can be abusive tax laws or budgets that blatently discriminate against some people. But there is no such thing as a perfect tax code or budget. Yet the effects of tax codes and budgets are often quite substantial. They provide boons to some people and burdens to others, often enough in unanticipated ways. Nonetheless, they must be made in a timely fashion if they are to have any chance of being beneficial to the society as a whole.So far as I can see, there are at least two moral demands that weigh on policy makers. One is that they always try to devise and implement policies that can plausibly claim to be to the benefit of al the members of the society. Second, they always acknowledge that what they have come up with is fallible and always open to thoughtful critique. One might call these two moral demands the "demands of truthfulness." There is nothing relativistic about them.
In any political society that has a defensible title to legitimacy, (one that is non-tyrannical, that accepts responsibility for protecting the lives and basic dignity of all who dwell within it, non-aggression against other legitimate states,etc.) there are any number of moral restraints upon the public policies that it can rightly adopt.
Bernard, you're assuming a single morality acting unambiguously on a lot of people, aren't you? How do you get to that point?I see only pragmatic restraints. If there are any moral restraints, they act on each individual individually. You may personally believe that there are restraints imposed on everyone or on governments by, say, God or your philosophy, but how do you extend them beyond yourself?This way of looking at it, by the way, suggests why character in a leader is terribly important. In the end, I think, many vital decisions come down to one individual's personal morality.
David Smith,1. You say: "Bernard , you're assuming a single morality acting unambiguously on a lot of people, aren't you?" I don't know what a "morality acting unambiguously on a lot of people" means.2. Let me suggest that you whether you really want to be a Protagorean, i. e, one who says that what's true for me may not be what's true for you?
Yes, that's what I was trying to suggest - that each of us has his own personal truths, independent of others' truths. Thus, a president , say, will act out of two sorts of motivations - pragmatism and personal morality.Protagorean? Philosophy is beyond me - I thought it was just common sense. How could it be otherwise? Humans are independent units - each of us thinks for himself, no? How can what you think affect me - unless, maybe, you have a gun?
Mr.. Smith,Sigh! "A Dieu."

CAMBRIDGE - This definitely wasn't the same Toronto baseball team from a few weeks ago.
Same uniforms, pretty much the same players, but it was obvious a new attitude has permeated throughout the dugout.
"We took practice more seriously," said Toronto's Tyler Owens. "We didn't joke around as much and we actually got down through the ball (at the plate). Coach Perk (head coach Brian Perkins) told us everything we were doing wrong and we fixed all of it.

COMPLETE GAME — Toronto senior Tyler Owens pitched a four-hit, complete-game shutout as the Red Knights advanced to Friday's Division III?district championship game with a 2-0 victory over the Hiland Hawks at Cambridge City Park.
-- Mike Mathison
"We look really good right now."
The team that struggled two short weeks ago, did none of that in Monday's 2-0 win over Hiland in a Division III district semifinal game.
The Red Knights are back on the same diamond at 5 p.m. Friday against the winner of today's other the district semifinal game between Steubenville Catholic Central and Tusky Central Catholic.
"I couldn't be more proud of these guys," said Owens, the winning pitcher.
"We started the season really hot, cooled off there and now our kids really came together," said Perkins. "We showed up today really focused. We were excited about playing and it showed up on the field."
The Red Knights, who were into this game from the first pitch, controlled play in this 80-minute ball game. Owens did most of that from the bump.
"I felt really good, my arm doesn't even hurt - I think I could go a few more," he said with a laugh.
Owens allowed four harmless singles, the first coming in the fourth inning. He was in command most of the game of his three pitches as he kept the Hawks off balance at the dish.
"Our goal was to get guys on because we feel that all pitchers aren't as good from the stretch," said Hiland head coach Tom Gibson. "If you get somebody on, you can make things happen. We just couldn't make things happen. We had guys in scoring position a couple times and didn't get the hit.
"Combine that with unearned runs and it's a bad deal. This is one-and-done.
"The strength of our team is defense and making plays and we didn't do it today."
Brad Melville opened the fifth by being hit by a pitch. Blaine Rawson reached on an error and Tyler Antinone singled to load the sacks.
One out later, Chezz Glen ripped a comebacker to the pitcher. He threw home to force Melville, but the throw to first to get Glenn sailed into right field Rawson came around to score.
Blaze Glenn promptly ripped a single to plate Antinone for the 2-0 cushion.
"I told my guys to just get me one run, that's all I needed," said Owens.
"Toward the end, I didn't feel good with my fastball. I wanted to go more with my curveball because I felt I could control it better.
"Overall, I threw all three well and we won."
The Red Knights game plan was rather simple.
"We wanted to get up there, have good at-bats and put pressure on them at the plate and on the bases," said Perkins. "We were able to do that. We caught a couple of breaks and we were able to push a couple runs across the plate.
"Both pitchers were throwing good ballgames and it was a matter of scratching a run or two across and we were fortunate enough to do that today."
Gibson agreed.
"Those guys put a lot of pressure on us the whole game," he said. "They run. They make you make plays. They played a good game. They're a solid team. Hat's off to them.
"They're a well-coached team. I love watching Toronto play. I like what Brian does with those guys."
Toronto now awaits the winner of today's 5 p.m. game.
"I'm just very proud of our kids," said Perkins.

Indonesia is a key LNG exporter to Asian countries like Japan and South Korea, but increasing domestic demand due to a growing economy and political pressure to control local resources is forcing the government to divert exports to local consumers, according to new reports.
By ERIC YEP
Indonesia's energy regulator said Friday that nations
willing to invest in the country's hydrocarbon sector would get priority for
liquefied natural gas deliveries as rising domestic demand has
curtailed the amount of gas available for export.
Indonesia is a key LNG exporter to Asian countries like
Japan and South Korea, but increasing domestic demand due to a
growing economy and political pressure to control local
resources is forcing the government to divert exports to local
"As domestic demand has increased rapidly, priority is now
given to supply domestic customers. However, with current and
future potential reserves, Indonesia will be able to maintain
its contribution to the export market," Widhyawan
Prawiraatmadja, deputy of planning at SKKMigas, said at the LNG
Supplies for Asian Markets conference in Singapore.
SKKMigas is a unit of Indonesia's Ministry of Energy and
Mineral Resources tasked with overseeing the upstream oil and
gas sector.
Despite world-class coal deposits, 4 trillion cubic meters
of proven gas reserves and 3.9 billion barrels of proven oil
reserves, Indonesia isn't keeping pace with the energy needs of
its fast-expanding population of 248 million and near 6%
economic growth.
Mr. Prawiraatmadja said the government is caught in a
dilemma between controlling hydrocarbon output for domestic needs and
attracting oil and gas majors to prevent exploration activity
from stagnating.
However, Indonesia needs to attract foreign investment in
the upstream hydrocarbon sector to help develop new
reserves and maintain economic growth, he said.
Indonesia used to be a member of the Organization of the
Petroleum Exporting Countries until 2008, as it became a net
oil importer. It is now looking to its large gas reserves to
boost energy exports.
Although foreign investors are wary of political uncertainty
and red tape, some new gas investments have materialized.
In June last year, Japan's Inpex, Royal Dutch Shell and
Indonesia's state-owned Pertamina agreed to invest an initial
$12 billion to develop offshore gas deposits, and spending may
rise to $20 billion.
In November, BP gained government approval for a third LNG
processing plant at its 37%-owned Tangguh project in Indonesia's West Papua
Oil and gas investment in Indonesia may rise by a fifth to
$26.2 billion in 2013 from the $21.9 billion commitment last
year, SKKMigas said earlier this month.

Engineers and designers are highly skilled individuals. Forcing them to enter design changes using tables, forms and spreadsheets is unproductive and uneconomical, and it increases the likelihood of human error—this is the way that most instrumentation software systems currently work. For too long, software vendors have denied engineers and designers the simple practicality of a graphical visual engineering interface with "drag and drop" capability and inbuilt intelligence, ensuring changes are automatically replicated into all the associated data and databases.

Which type of computer could he have? The Gemara says that Haman is connected to "Hamin Heitz" - Haman is a tree. The only tree computer that exists is an Apple, Therefore, Haman was an Apple.

After Killing a Deer
(Also applies to pronghorn, except for License Log)
- After a deer is killed and before the deer is field dressed or moved, the appropriate hunting license tag or permit (MLDP, LAMPS, etc.) must be immediately filled out and dates cut out (See Tagging a Deer).

- A hunter may transport a deer to a final destination (see Definitions), provided the deer is tagged and proof of sex accompanies the deer (see Proof of Sex).
- A hunter may skin and quarter a deer (two forequarters, two hindquarters, and two backstraps) and possess for transport, provided the quartered deer is tagged and proof of sex accompanies the deer. (See Cold Storage or Processing Facility for exceptions).
- A deer may not be processed any further than four quarters and two backstraps (example, steaks, hamburger, chili meat, etc.) until the deer reaches a final destination, except for immediate consumption in camp.
- The four quarters and two backstraps are the only parts of a deer required by law to be kept in edible condition. Texas Parks and Wildlife Department encourages all hunters to continue to keep other portions of the deer (trimmings from the neck and rib cage) in edible condition. Edible condition does not include any portion of a game animal, game bird, or fish that is: bruised by bullet, shot, or arrow, or otherwise destroyed as a result of harvest; decayed or rotting at the time of harvest; or obviously infected or diseased at the time of harvest.
- The tag must remain with the portion of a deer the hunter possesses. If any portion is transferred to another person before it reaches a final destination, then the transferred portion must be accompanied by a Wildlife Resource Document. See also Transfer of Wildlife Resources.
Harvest Restrictions
- Managed Lands Deer (MLD) Permits: Permits issued to landowners with a TPWD-approved Wildlife Management Plan. MLD permits allow hunters, at the discretion of the landowner or agent, to exceed the county bag limit and (in some cases) to hunt during an extended season. All deer taken on a property for which MLD permits have been issued must be tagged with the appropriate type of MLD permit. NOTE: No license log entry or tag from a hunting license is required for deer killed under a MLD permit (see license log requirement above). For more information about Wildlife Management Plans, landowners should call TPWD at (512) 389-4505.
- LAMPS (Landowner Assisted Management Permit System): LAMPS permits allow antlerless deer to be taken in counties where antlerless harvest is by permit only during the entire season or portion of a season. For more information, landowners should contact TPWD at (409) 489-0823 or visit LAMPS. All antlerless deer taken on a LAMPS property must be tagged with a LAMPS permit. This does not include antlerless deer taken during the Archery Only Season or Muzzleloader Only Season. NOTE: No hunting license log or hunting license tag is required for deer killed under a LAMPS permit.
- For information about antlerless deer permits on National Forest lands, please call the U.S. Forest Service in Lufkin at (936) 639-8501.
Processing in Camp
- You are allowed to quarter a deer or antelope in camp, but tagging and proof-of-sex requirements continue to apply until the wildlife resource reaches a final destination (see Definitions).
- Deer or antelope may not be processed beyond quarters in camp unless the camp qualifies as a final destination.
- While in camp you may remove and prepare a part of a wildlife resource if the removal and preparation occur immediately before the part is cooked or consumed; however, all tagging and proof of sex regulations apply to remaining parts and those parts may be transported to a final destination.

I got one of these as a cheap add-on from that daily deal. The hinge broke as soon as I pressed the open latch.
By the way deal poster, thanks for telling me which cards to buy an RFID scanner for.
I have this one. The hinge rod keeps slipping out. I can probably crimp the end and do a force-fit of it to keep it secure.
The worst part is that the plastic dividers inside have all broken on all the joints. I used some strong tape to joint the dividers back together. It works, but because of the tape, I can't put as much in it any longer.
The regular price I've seen around the net is usually around $10 to $12, but that would be way too expensive for these things. My target price would likely be $5 - if I bought one again. Not sure I would.

By now nearly everyone has at least a passing acquaintance with the world's most famous botched fresco retouching, so it's no surprise to see the story come to life in a variety of ways.
In fact, the octogenarian responsible for the fresco fiasco claims her Ecce Mono is so popular, she deserves to be paid royalties for all the moola it's making the church where it "hangs."
Beast Jesus only knows what Cecilia Giménez will do once she learns that her accidental creation has become one of the most popular Halloween costumes of 2012. Because it will.

We take a moment during each of the Final 49 weeks until Kickoff 2013 to look at various aspects of the Charlotte 49ers football program.
Dream Team
Aug. 14, 2013
By Tom Whitestone
This past weekend the Charlotte 49ers football team gathered for a team photo and met with members of the media.
It was just another in a long line of events that have carried us over the past two and a half years as the team has been formed, molded and prepped for opening day.
The 49ers first team photo.
Photographer Wade Bruton thought it would be neat to put the 2013 image next to the one from 1947, back when the 49ers predecessor, the CCUNC Owls, fielded a team.
That team photo included about 25 players.
This year's team photo has closer to 95.
That team was seated on a stairwell that overlooked their practice field at the high school they were using for classes.
This year, they were seated in their own stadium on their own campus of nearly 1000 acres.
The size of the team, campus and players has changed dramatically in those 60-plus years.
In talking with one of the team members from the 1947 squad, though, both teams share that basic dream and desire. Both teams, made up mostly of first and second year players, just wanted to play.
Our fans can relate to that.
That's what they've wanted for so long.
They've wanted the 49ers to play football. Now that we are less than a handful of weeks away, every practice, every passing day -- every moment celebrated and passed by brings us closer to seeing that wish granted.
The eyes of the players in the team photos -- from both 1947 and 2013 -- are full of hopes and dreams.
And the eyes of the fans looking at the pictures?
Those eyes are full of a dream come true.

The presidential and state races will be getting plenty of attention as the countdown begins to next Tuesday night,
but one local community race is a rare situation this election... an empty ballot, something the Warren County clerk says she's never seen.
"It's never happened since I've been here, and I've been here since 2003," said Warren County Clerk Dot Owens.
Owens says three candidates filed as write-ins at the end of September and beginning of October, just before the Oct. 26th deadline.
The catch is even with the write-in filings, there will still be one vacant seat.
"Now of those three... they will pick the fourth commissioner. If they can't agree, then the governor will appoint," said Owens.
Each of the three write-in candidates only needs one write-in vote to get elected. Then they'll have the task of appointing the fourth commissioner, a task that current commissioner John Blubaugh believes will be an easy one saying, "We have never had a problem in the eleven years I have been with the commission to get people to volunteer their service, but this year the deadline to file slipped up on many of us. I don't anticipate having a problem finding a fourth person to fill the position," said Oakland City Commissioner.
Blubaugh says people in the community are typically eager to serve. One write-in candidate says he has been wanting to get involved for some time.
"I'm going to be living in Oakland for a while, and I knew their position was open, so I'll use that position to get to know people in the area, and hopefully be a benefit there," said Oakland City Commission Write-in Candidate Ron Alsup.
Once the three new commissioners are appointed they will have to agree on who to appoint to the fourth seat and if for some reason they can't, the governor will make the appointment.
Two of the three candidates who filed as write-ins, Jimmy Hopkins and John Blubaugh are incumbents.
While Ron Alsup is the only candidate who would be new to the commission. Hopkins says the commission has options in mind for the fourth commissioner, if they should have to appoint someone.

USA Truck adds domestic containers to intermodal offerings through a deal with BNSF
August 23, 2010 - LM Editorial
Dry van truckload carrier USA Truck has expanded its intermodal menu, announcing it recently inked a long-term contract with Class I railroad carrier BNSF Railway to move private 53-foot domestic intermodal containers.
Company officials said USA Truck moved its first rail intermodal load in December 2007 and two years later had 69 percent year-over-year intermodal growth in 2009 and 50 percent growth for the first half of 2010. They said the majority of that revenue came from intermodal trailer-on-flat-car (TOFC) service, adding that adding private intermodal containers through this deal provides it with an opportunity to continue to grow on the intermodal side.
Adding containers to its intermodal lineup is something USA Truck been planning on for more than two years, said Chad Van Kooten, USA Truck vice president of sales and intermodal, in an interview.
"The container-on-a-flat-car (COFC) market is something we wanted to get into, but we wanted to have a better understanding of it, so we introduced the TOFC service, which is still the majority of intermodal business we do today, first," said Van Kooten. "We saw this as a great opportunity to introduce containers to our customer base and further diversify our intermodal product."
Van Kooten said USA Truck has had a relationship—BNSF's run of TOFC products—since it got into the intermodal sector. He explained that BNSF knew USA Truck had wanted to get into the intermodal market for some time, which led to meetings between the companies, coupled with BNSF providing USA Truck with some intermodal containers, and a subsequent official partnership.
Van Kooten declined to disclose specifics regarding the contractual terms between USA Truck and BNSF, due to a non-disclosure agreement between the companies.
"Our customer base is very diversified; we will introduce this product to some of our core customers and also those outside of core customer base," he said. "It also gives us a bigger slice of the rail intermodal business."
And as freight transportation capacity has tightened over the last several months, Van Kooten said USA Truck expects to be able to offer shippers additional capacity through this partnership.
This news is reflective of the increased traction domestic intermodal continues to gain in recent quarters, especially on the container side. As an example, the Intermodal Association of North America (IANA) recently reported that domestic container loadings in the second quarter at 1,128,108 were up 16.4 percent.

$$ \lim_{x \to \infty} \frac{xe^{x-1}}{(x-1)e^x} $$
I don't know what to do. At all.
I've read the explanations in my book at least a thousand times, but they're over my head.
Oh, and I'm not allowed to use L'Hospital's rule. (I'm guessing it isn't needed for limits of this kind anyway. This one is supposedly simple - a beginners problem.) Most of the answers I've seen on the Internet simply says "use L'Hospital's rule".
Any help really appreciated. I'm so frustrated right now...

Cutting batts of fiberglass insulation takes forever because the batts are so thick and fuzzy. To speed up the process and produce a clean, neat cut every time, lay the insulation on top of a scrap piece of plywood with its foil or kraft-paper vapor barrier facing up. Then cut a 2X4 at least 12 inches longer than the width of the insulation. Place the 2X4 across the batt on the cut line. Compress the insulation by kneeling on one end of the 2X4 and pressing down on the other end with your palm. Then use a sharp utility knife to slice through the batt in a single stroke. Always wear gloves, long-sleeve shirt, long pants, eye protection, and a dust mask when working with fiberglass. And work carefully so the knife doesn't slip and cut your knee.
