August 30, 2004
Vanderlei de Lima:
Brazilian marathoner ran off the course by a nutjob, but manages to rally for bronze. Deservedly, he got a special medal for dealing.
The Lead Item
Two Words For You:
The rest of us
are recovering from the two-week Olympic binge. (Quickie analysis: Yes, it was a success, but it's already forgotten, in last night's blinding wake of "Up With Greek People.")
Meanwhile, Red Sox fans need to exhale, too, gaining some perspective while they have a day off during this giddy six-game win streak (12 of 13, too). Hit
on the "Ti-Bo."
Charging within 4.5 games
of the Yankees is a mirage; forget those six head-to-head games later in September, or else the far more important
next nine games
-- versus the AL West's Big 3 -- might bite the Sox in the "ahhsss." (New York gets cupcakes CLE, BAL and TB in the same stretch.)
Forget NY; remember the goal:
Just make the playoffs.
(US) Open Season
Something big
is happening in New York this week. Forget the convention (oh, but if I only could); alas, the US Open might be eclipsed until the weekend (when the circus leave town), but it still shares some qualities with the RNC, like wild cheering, crowded venues... and no surprises?
Picks to win:
An inspired Serena (but in an upset, she'll be eclipsed for media coverage by Maria Sharapova) and -- head over gut -- Federer over Roddick.
Bonds Watch
Here are some numbers
that even the biggest SABR-phobe can appreciate: No. 695 went 467 (feet); No. 696 went 462 (feet). To sum up: 2 HR at 929 feet (equals one more MVP?)
U.S. Hoops: Bronzed
"Catastrophic success":
You might hear this phrase being thrown around early this week -- and, in an adulterated way, it applies to U.S. hoops' third-place finish.
So what next?
Where to start?
Selection process
Manifested as:
Wrong players
"Fit" over "Stars"
Albert Pujols: Hits 40th HR; 100 RBI (4th straight season)
Red Sox: Win 6th in row (12/13), yet still can't pull away
China: 32 golds (behind only US 35) AND "Hero" top flick
Track relay teams: 2 sets of bungled handoffs? No excuse!
Yang Tae-Young: Feel for you, dude, but time to let it go
Broncos RB Mike Anderson: Out for year? Tests DEN "depth"
Coach's "Right Way"
Manifested as:
"Wrong result"
Find an open mind
Development system
Manifested as:
Practice J's
Deion's Return
Prime Time ready to sign?
I would never suggest a single player -- let alone one without much fantasy football consequence -- dominates an NFL season, but Deion instantly jumps to the top of the list of Top 5 "must-see" players, just ahead of (in order) Vick, T.O.,
Peyton and McGahee.
NFL Pre: Eli Stinks?
You can pinpoint the moment(s)
from Friday night when the wheels came off the Eli Manning bandwagon: A couple picks, a bad fumble, a weekend for everyone to stew over it, and --
-- he's benched for the season opener in favor of Kurt Warner.
But don't pity him;
he's the guy who demanded the New York pressure. (Hear anyone griping about Phil Rivers' similarly sorry effort in San Diego? Exactly.)
CFB Preview: Day 1
Today: Heisman Watch.
Nothing feeds the "instant history" jones like tracking the Heisman race, which swings wildly, weekly. To wit: USC stud Reggie Bush goes for 3 telegenic TDs on Saturday? Who
put him in the early lead? This year's contenders (um, for... today):
1. Reggie Bush, RB, USC
Who's Mike Williams?
2. Matt Leinert, QB, USC
In it until USC loses a game
3. Darren Sproles, RB, K-State
Has the skills; needs the pub
4. Chris Leak, QB, Florida
If talent was only criteria ...
5. Jason White, QB, Okla
Ugh: Undeserving then
Needs more hype:
Wisconsin RB Anthony Davis
Syracuse RB Walter Reyes
Utah QB Alex Smith
Don't believe the hype:
Texas RB Cedric Benson
Georgia QB David Greene
Auburn RB Cadillac Williams
Tuesday: Top 5 storylines
Athens arenas:
All that effort/money spent for 2-week shelf life? No plans for future use? Apparently, the last 14 smooth-running days were an anomaly.

Half a Million Recruits Enlisted for Warhammer Online
Mythic reports over 500,000 subscriptions in the first week of their new MMO.
Though we're still digging away at the game for our review, you can get our first impressions in 1UP's most recent preview. If the Warhammer Online team can keep the bugs relatively absent and restore the cut content as promised, they should be able to keep the numbers fairly high. The only question is if it will all be for naught in a couple of months.

Fourteen public meetings have been scheduled to discuss the future of the Columbia River Treaty between the United States and Canada. The Portland meeting will be held April 16th and another in Seattle on May 2nd. The Columbia River Treaty has served as a model of international cooperation since 1964, bringing significant flood control and power generation benefits to both countries.
Oregon State Police (OSP) troopers are continuing the investigation into Tuesday afternoon's single vehicle fatal traffic crash along Highway 26 in the Coast Range west of Manning in Columbia County. The crash resulted in the death of an adult female and serious injury to her husband who was driving the vehicle.
What appears to be another part of a torii (sacred arch) was removed from the ocean shore near Florence about mid-day on April 9, 2013. Leisure Excavating from Florence transported it from the Siuslaw River South Jetty to a nearby state park maintenance compound for safekeeping.
The Astoria Downtown Historic District Association (ADHDA) is organizing the annual Downtown Clean-Up Day on Sunday, April 21st from 9:00 a.m. to noon to celebrate Earth Day. Meet at the Sunset Empire Transit District parking lot (corner of 10th and Marine Drive) to receive materials and jobs assignments. We would like to spruce up downtown in preparation for the Astoria Sunday Market, the cruise ships and the summer tourist season.
After facing the reality of losing Astoria's premiere annual event it seems things are back on track for the Astoria Regatta with a partially rejuvenated association and some new leadership at the helm. This does not mean the future of the yearly festival is assured. That will depend on a higher level of personal involvement by private citizens willing to volunteer on those critical committees that do all the planning and organizing year after year.
Coastal living is growing in popularity, putting more and more people at risk from the dangerous storms which can devastate shore communities. The American Red Cross urges those considering taking up residence along the coast to know what steps they should take should a storm threaten their neighborhood.
It's not unusual for schools to go directly to the public to raise money. Parents and friends are used to seeing kids show up at the front door selling everything from chocolate bars to Christmas wreaths to support extracurricular programs for schools but when it comes to creative fundraising efforts the unique Astoria High School Aquatic Biology program has perhaps the perfect way to raise money and highlight the program at the same time.
On April 4, 2013 at 3:00pm Officer Ray Ayers was going on-duty for his patrol shift when he turned his department-issued cell phone on. Officer Ayers immediately received a text message notification and voicemail notification. Upon checking the text message and voicemail Officer Ayers was surprised to read that a woman named "Diana" had some "stuff" and wanted to know if he wanted some. Officer Ayers then listened to the voicemail and again found that the message was from "Diana" stating she had some "blue 30 milligram" if asked he could "help her out." Officer Ayers was not sure if the text and voicemail were a joke or a mistake but knew the reference to "blue" was for the prescription medication oxycodone.
Coast Guard Sector Columbia River, Clatsop County, and numerous partner agencies will conduct a Mass Rescue and Maritime Security exercise on the Astoria waterfront Wednesday from 9 a.m. to 3p.m.

Dean's Post-Doctoral Fellow in Immigration and Violence Against Women and Lecturer
Laurie Cook Heffron's research focuses on the experiences of, and relationships between, violence against women and migration.
As former associate director for research at the Institute on Domestic Violence and Sexual Assault (IDVSA), she contributed to multiple research projects, including a program evaluation for services to victims of human trafficking, a statewide domestic violence prevalence study, a program evaluation of the Texas Non-Report Sexual Assault Forensic Exam Program, and a national pilot program to develop professional and organizational resiliency among child welfare workers. Laurie also worked with IDVSA in completing a study of resettlement experiences among Congolese refugee women, and a statewide evaluation on human trafficking in collaboration with the Texas Health and Human Services Commission and the Office of the Attorney General.
Laurie has both direct social work practice and research experience with a variety of immigrant communities, including refugees, survivors of human trafficking, and asylees. Previously, she served as program coordinator for Green Leaf Refugee Services, providing intensive health and emotional health case management services to refugees, victims of trafficking, asylees, and other immigrants in Central Texas. Currently, she provides pro bono psychosocial assessments to support the immigration cases of women and children seeking T visas, U visas, and asylum based on domestic violence.
Laurie completed her doctoral degree at The University of Texas at Austin as a Donald D. Harrington Fellow. Her dissertation is titled, "Salía de uno y me metí en otro:" A grounded theory approach to understanding the violence-migration nexus among Central American women in the United States.

Time For the True Celtics Fans to Step Up!
- Updated: January 5, 2013
The Celtics are struggling through a four-game losing streak after impressively beating the Brooklyn Nets on Christmas Day on National TV!
Since then their defensive effort has been floundering resulting in double-digit losses to the Clippers, the Warriors, the Kings, and the Grizzlies.
In all of these games they gave up way too many points easily! The Celtics are known to be a tough team defensively so many are left wondering …"What happened?" and "should we forget about this year?"
The answer is No Way! Keep at it Celtics fans! If you remember last year there was a dismal west coast trip and the team finished one game short of the Finals. This is no time to hang your head Celtics' fans! This is a time for us to root for our team and show them they have our support! So in short form… True fans need to step up!
On Friday January 4, 2012 the Indiana Pacers come into Boston to play! Longtime Celtics fans will remember current Indiana Pacers executive of the year….. Larry Bird otherwise known as The Legend.It will be difficult to beat any team that Larry Bird is involved in but the Celtics will have to do just that to get back above .500 and back into the playoff race!
The best part… truth be told is that there is a lot of time left in the season! Plenty of time for another playoff and title run. I'm sure this veteran-led team is well aware of that and know they don't have much time left together as a core team. Furthermore, GM Danny Ainge is expected to make some trades/moves to bolster team defense! Paul Pierce, Rondo, Garnett are the remaining three from 2008 and have plenty of experience to bank on! Defensive-minded phenom
Avery Bradley is returning to the starting lineup.All these factors put together should put the Celtics in decent position to do well in the playoffs. First they have to buckle-down, play defense, and start gelling together. The Celtics don't want more criticism they want our support. Time to step up, rally, and say Go Celtics Go!

We really enjoyed our stay. The apartment was as we had expected. Big advantages was the spacious rooms and the location. Our host was extremly service minded and made sure that we got the most out of our stay.
The only remark is that the apartment wasn't cleaned Hood enough after the former guests.
We would definatly recommend this apartment!
It was a very nice apartment with a good locasion.
Nice and clean Apartment located in a quiet street, but still close to Monte Cassino. Large enough for a family of five. Our host was service minded and followed up our queries rather promptly.
The apartment "Grande" was dirty. The oven had not been cleaned, there was old food in the freezer and the floors were dirthy. The kitchen was not equipped for 7 people and there was no mop to clean the floors. The only place to dry clothes and towels was a broken drying rach. We called the owner and he fixed everthing except the drying rack and the hole week we had difficulties to dry our clothes and towels
The owner was helpful and reachable and ordered taxies for us both ways. The apartment was big enough for 7 people
We enjoyed our stay in Sopot a lot. The apartment has a nice location, it's close to the beach and in the heart of Sopot. The facilities are great, too. The only thing we missed, though, was wifi. Our contact person was service minded and helpfull. Thank you!
The host cancelled the booking, this review is automated.
clean tidy apartment with all the facilities you could wish for 1 weeks holiday. excellent location and superb views. look no further if you want a holiday let in Sopot. Great
Very nice apartment with good location. Great service from the host, who also arranged taxi for us from the airport. This can be recommended !!

In MIPS, I know that I can declare an array as:
list: .space 20
However, what if I wanted to create an array of different size based on user input? Is this possible?
For example, the program would ask the user to input an integer N and create an array of length N.

Skip to comments.Gone With The Wind (column by George Will)
Posted on 06/25/2006 9:55:57 AM PDT by EveningStar
Confined to her bed in Atlanta by a broken ankle and arthritis, she was given a stack of blank paper by her husband, who said, "Write a book." Did she ever.
The novel's first title became its last words, "Tomorrow is another day," and at first she named the protagonist Pansy. But Pansy became Scarlett, and the title of the book published 70 years ago this week became "Gone With the Wind."
You might think that John Steinbeck, not Margaret Mitchell, was the emblematic novelist of the 1930s, and that the publishing event in American fiction in that difficult decade was his "Grapes of Wrath." Published in 1939, it captured the Depression experience that many Americans had, and that many more lived in fear of. Steinbeck's novel became a great movie, and by now 14 million copies of the book have been sold...

Great Post!
~ thanks ~
A wonderful, amazing book. I did not read GWTW until just a few years ago and I had probably seen the move 30 times. What a revelation! It truly is the Great American Novel, and none better has yet been written. Margaret Mitchell captured the spirit of the American woman better than any modern feminist possibly could. If you have never read it, do yourself a favor and read it!!!
Too bad George Will cannot be "Gone with the Wind."
Margaret Mitchell captured the spirit of the Southern woman ... a breed apart from the American woman ... was then and is now.
The movie was wonderful of course, but like any film it condensed some minor story lines and characters.
I agree, reading the book is a great experience.
GWTW is the best bad novel ever written nothing more though it is a fun read. I read it two years ago. No American novel is better than Moby Dick.
Having seen the movie countless times, I finally bought the book and read it on vacation one Summer. I think I may read it again this vacation. This post reminded me what a good read it was. So much to read and vacation is so short - I tend to re-read books I know are good - hate to waste good reading time on a bad book!
To Kill a Mockingbird stays on my bedside table - it's a well worn favorite.
bet your freepmail box stays pretty full with a screenname like that.
OK, I must have been sleeping during this past year...what happened to Will? Why is everyone mad at him?
Gosh, I've never read it; never considered it, but now I might put it on my summer reading list.
It is a little above an ordinary potboiler but fun nonetheless. Great literature? Not even close.
I'm not looking for "great literature" in the summer, are you? :-)
Gone With The Wind is a classic literary masterpiece, and parents should make their children watch it so they get an accurate portrayal of American history. Along with Gods and Generals, one of the best historical movies of all time.
It truly is the Great American Novel, and none better has yet been written. Margaret Mitchell captured the spirit of the American woman better than any modern feminist possibly could.
No, it was not Great. A good story with interesting character development but not great.
As for capturing the spirit of the American woman, I hope that you don't see the grasping, conniving Scarlett as the archetypal American woman.
My mother gave me GWTW to read the summer after fourth grade. She wisely told me that GWTW is the kind of book that is fun to read and very emotional. It is the kind of book one should read interspersed between other more serious books ... and that way, the fun one is more fun and the serious ones have more meaning.
Great literature? Certainly not ... more like an earlier version of popular culture ... but still well worth the reading.
"Not trust a darky! Scarlett trusted them far more than most white people. ... They still stuck with their white folks and worked much harder than they ever worked in slave times."
In both the book and the movie, the character Mammy had more sense than all the white characters combined. She spoke more for the social traditions of the South than anyone else.
Actually, yes, Scarlett epitomizes the spirit of the American woman ain the early 21st century. She was a feminist before that term had even been dreamed up.
More than any other character in the book, Scarlett O'Hara is relevant to today's world. How many Melanie's do you see on the scene today?
It's not that well-written but the story line and the characters are unmatched by anything, short of the novels of Charles Dickens.
Who can forget red-headed Will the foreman, or the Slatterys, or Aunt Pittypat, or Dilsey, not to mention Mammy, Pork, Suellen --- how many minor characters are there? And they all fit and they are all believable.
And the writing is awful.
Discussions of whether GWTW is "great literature" are pointless - a matter simply in the eye of the beholder. The real test is whether it survives and once opened is read from cover to cover. It passes that test.
Not everyone in the South treated their slaves [and then former slaves] well; however, in my research, I have found countless examples where freed slaves chose not to leave their former owners or the plantations on which they lived. Others left but found really hard times ahead of them.
One very telling example is a story related to me recently by a 94 year old friend:
She was working for the local doctor in this rural county when a very elderly black man came in one day, with his hat in his hand, and said, "Excuse me, Miss, but they tell me you are Miss Austinia's granddaughter". She replied, "Yes, I am." He then told her, "We went North after the War. We were terribly poor and there was no work. If Miss Austinia had not taught me how to read, I never would have made it ...".
In this state, and probably in others as well, it was against the law to teach blacks to read. Schools were conducted on many plantations and children from surrounding farms were educated there. In any number of cases I have run across, black children were taught to read as well.
The South is much maligned and unrightly so. Slavery would have died a natural death as it had become un-economical in an increasingly industrial age. The history of this country was forever changed, and not for the better, by the deaths in the Civil War of a generation of the best young men ... South and North.
Yeah. Will and Gergen are typical of "conservatives" the liberal media puts on tv. Like David Brooks, they are house conservatives whose job it is to show the rest of the world that conservative opinion is honored; when in fact it's dismissed from the gitgo.
My Grandmother was a friend of Margaret Mitchell's at one point in their lives. Until her dying day my Grandmother couldn't believe MM wrote that book.
I'd recommend it for entertainment and epic drama, but the "accurate portrayal of American history" is open to debate. ;)
Don't know what the matter has been with Will lately. He seems to spend most of his time apologizing for being conservative.
He ought to just say what he thinks and let the chips fall where they may.
It's a book only a teenaged girl could love; the movie is worse.
MM had help from a Priest, but I can't remmber his name....my father wrote about it in his autobiography.
Thanks for a great post -- freedom allows our culture to turn on a dime. And sometimes for the better...
I liked the Movie GWTW, but whoever wrote that sequel should have been horsewhipped.
GWTW prettifies slavery and justifies the post-war Ku Klux Klan. These are serious flaws but both institutions were long dead by the time the novel was written. More harm is done by a modern novel which justifies abortion (e.g., John Updike's Couples).
My college literature professor dismissed Gone with the Wind as a soap opera.
As Groucho Marx says in one of the Marx Brothers movies, "I'd horsewhip you, if I had a horse."
I remember reading somewhere that 'Gone With the Wind' was rated the best movie of all time by the American people. Number two was 'Casablanca'.
If I had been a girl, my name would have been Melanie. Plenty of women my age who do have that name.
If you want to read "The Novel of the South" try Flash for Freedom by George MacDonald Fraser.
Thomas Sowell made the point that Christianity changed in the 18th and 19th centuries. He pointed out that slavery existed and was taken for granted an an institution in all cultures and worldwide, throughout history. And that includes Christian culture as well as Confuscian, Budhist, Hindu, and Moslem.The history of this country was forever changed, and not for the better, by the deaths in the Civil War of a generation of the best young men ... South and North.
But in the past two centuries Christianity became able to prevent slave raids of its own territory, and then became willing to fight for the freedom of strangers. Britain established a squadron of the Royal Navy permanently stationed off western Africa for no other purpose than to interdict the slave trade, without any hope of recompense, never mind profit. Not only so, but Britain did not recognize the Confederacy and interfere in the Civil War, which would have doomed the Union, even though cotton fueled Britain's industrial revolution. Fear of just such action by the British was the sole reason for the Emanicpation Proclamation, which was unpopular in the North and anathema in the South, but assured that British Christians would not support the Confederacy in any way.
Sowell points out that the South had a tiger by the tail and could not let go; abolition would mean letting abused black slaves have the opportunity to undertake to get even. And for that reason, before the war abolition was a marginal, radical, position upheld by few.
I've always thought that there was a blockade to prevent British ships from buying the South's cotton.
Now that was a novel!
I bet your freep name has given you a bit of notoriety too. Kinda like the shadow. There is something to be said about anonymity.
I read it in the summer of '63. Many times since. Great literature---like with snob appeal? I suppose not. The contemporaries of Dumas and Stevenson weren't convinced of their immortality either.
But as far as I'm concerned, Gone With The Wind is time-tested. Besides, it's straight out of the spring of timeless storytelling: the hero tale where the hero is, first, clueless in clover, unappreciative and immature; then disaster strikes; then things get REALLY bad; then they climb out of the mess, inch by inch, forever changed, and whether they win or lose they have achieved authenticity and self-realization while remaining true to their deepest value.
That's The Story, and it always strikes a responsive chord in our hearts, always will. Every generation waits to hear it and be awakened by it.
So yeah, it's great literature. :)
The OVERRATED Steinbeck merely became a favorite of "educators" due to his socialist politics and flair for self-promotion. The only thing worse than the Grapes of Wrath was the horrible movie they made of it with Henry "Jane's Dad" Fonda.
As it stands, my favorite "southern" novel is "A Cry of Absense" by Madison Jones.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Hello everyone, and thank you for your comments on my blog about vaccines. I wish to share with you clarifications on several points. I will be writing about autism in a future blog, as it is such an important topic and deserves my main focus.
A community of children
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)

LOS ANGELES, CA (Rise Above Health Blog) - In my 35 years as a RN, I
have personally never seen a child who has had an issue with childhood
vaccines other than redness at injection site or mild fever. In fact, while I was nursing in northern
Canada, I witnessed first hand the incredible power of "community immunity". In many of these remote northern areas,
illness often meant death. There is limited access to medical care, and the
dedicated incredible nurses that work in these areas, are caring for the
individuals, the families and the entire community. Vaccination has saved many lives, and families. Child receiving Oral Immunization.
I have a daughter-in-law who is a nurse practitioner in a large pediatric clinic. She told me she has also never seen a child with a severe reaction to vaccinations.
Vaccinations are not injected directly into the blood stream. They are given by several methods, intramuscular (IM) injection, subcutaneous (SC) injection, intradermal (ID) administration, intra nasal spray (IN) and orally (PO).
Informed consent is a law in the United States. This requires the complete disclosure of facts needed to make decision intelligently. For informed consent to take place, the information that is given must be understood. Since the doctor won't know what you don't understand unless you ask about it. The patient, parent or legal guardian must have the chance to consider the information and ask questions. There are times that informed consent can be waived, but vaccination is not one of them.
Thimerasol, is an organomercury compound and is bacteriostatic. It is used in some multi dose vials of vaccine, Single dose units are made without thimerosal, because they are meant to be opened and used once. For example, thimerasol protects against staphylococcus infection that, in one 1928 incident, killed 12 of 21 children inoculated with a diptheria vaccine that lacked a preservative.
U.S. health agencies (The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the Food and Drug Administration (FDA), and the National Institutes of Health (NIH)) have reviewed the published research on thimerosal and found it to be a safe. Three independent organizations [The National Academy of Sciences' Institute of Medicine, Advisory Committee on Immunization Practices (ACIP), and the American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP)] reviewed the published research and also found thimerosal to be a safe.
It is a fact that the MMR vaccines are made on fetal cells obtained in the 1960's. This fact has never been hidden from the public. While those cell lines originated in aborted fetal tissue decades ago, there is no aborted fetal tissue itself in the vaccine. What it contains is attenuated virus cells.
Before the widespread use of a vaccine against measles, its incidence was so high that infection with measles was felt to be inevitable. Today, because of vaccinations, the incidence of measles has fallen dramatically to less than 1% of people under the age of 30 in the United States.
One year after the introduction of the vaccine in 1963, the number of cases fell from hundreds of thousands to tens of thousands. While there were sporadic outbreaks of measles in 1971, 1977, and in the early 1980's the number of cases reported each year since 1997 has been less than 200 per year. [8,9,10]
The benefit of the measles vaccination in preventing illness, disability and death is well documented. An estimated 52 million cases of measles was prevented in the first 20 years of the vaccine.
During 1999-2004, a strategy led by the World Health Organization and UNICEF led to improvements in measles vaccination coverage that averted an estimated 1.4 million measles deaths worldwide.[12]
Measles is endemic worldwide. Although it was declared eliminated from the U.S. in 2000, high rates of vaccination and good communication with persons who refuse vaccination is needed to prevent outbreaks. Of the 66 cases of measles reported in the U.S. in 2005, slightly over half were attributable to one unvaccinated individual who acquired measles during a visit to Romania. [14] This individual returned home, and to a community with many unvaccinated children. The resulting outbreak infected 34 people, mostly children and virtually all unvaccinated; 9% were hospitalized. A major epidemic was averted due to high rates of vaccination in the surrounding communities. [13]
Mumps is another viral disease of childhood that was once very common. If a male who is past puberty acquires mumps, a possible complication is bilateral orchitis which can in some cases lead to sterility.
Rubella or German measles fell sharply when immunization was introduced. The major risk of rubella is in pregnancy. If a pregnant woman is infected, her baby may contract congenital rubella, which can cause significant congenital defects.
All three of these diseases are highly contagious.
The MMR vaccine was introduced in order to vaccinate less painfully, more efficiently that three separate injections.
In 2012, the Cochrane Library published a review of scientific studies. Its authors concluded, "Existing evidence on the safety and effectiveness of MMR vaccine supports current policies of mass immunization aimed at global measles eradication and in order to reduce morbidity and mortality associated with measles, mumps and rubella."
Now on to the moral issue of giving this vaccination to our children. We as parents have a moral obligation to protect them and our communities. We also have to make our choices with our moral conscience. I am bringing information and data to help you make an informed decision.
I implore each and every one of you to carefully read, from introduction to conclusion, the June 2005 document from the Vatican 'Moral Reflections on Vaccines Prepared from Cells Derived from Aborted Human Foetuses'. [1]
I have enclosed a link to this article in my references (footnotes). [1]
I personally want all children to be safe and healthy. It is up to us, as parents to safeguard them and our communities. Please make an informed choice regardless of the side of the vaccination fence you live on. Know all the facts on both sides of this huge debate, then decide. Deciding with knowledge, not emotion is imperative.
Once again, this is just one nurses evidence based view.

I just celebrated my first year as a cancer survivor and got these pens to give to people who were not friends, just acquaintances like the receptionist at the gym or my nail tech who were consistenly supportive and cheerful. I called them "bright, shiny spots" in my difficult year who made me smile whenever I met them. I said I just wanted to give them something bright and shiny to smile about whenever they needed to reach for a pen. Everyone loved them!
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes!
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. Caps screwed on securely, and pens all worked well. no loose beads or mirrors.
- How accurate was the sizing? Good size for fitting into pocket or purse - neither too large nor too small.
I gave these pens as a little token of Christmas cheer to friends who stopped by this season. Everyone loved them. I have always picked up "different" pens as they are not easily lost of picked up accidently. These were quite a hit with all.
I wanted to order pens for co-workers and my staff. This was an excellent deal for me. I like the variety of colors and the design. My sister liked them so much that she wanted me to order some for her. Eventhough the quality is probably average. The cost was just right for what I needed. I ordered a total of 24. Those that received the pen thought it was very nice and also liked the unique design.
Cute pens and PERFECT for stocking stuffers!!! Well made, all work and are exactly as described! These were part of my first order from the Big O and I am so pleased so far!
really gorgeous looking pens and they write beautifully
- Did the color match the color displayed onsite? yes
- Please tell us about the quality of the product. more than worth the price
- How accurate was the sizing? perfect
