Comments about 'Pennsylvania pastor facing church trial over gay marriage'

The rift in the Methodist church is interesting to watch. This isn't just
"fringe" pastors agitating for change.
The former Bishop for Northern California -- a past president of the National Council of Churches -- Melvin Talbert, has urged pastors to defy this church law, and has performed at least one same-sex marriage himself.
Talbert has said: "Weddings are going on all the time, all across the church, but it's privately done, and bishops are just looking the other way, and it's time for someone to say, 'Let's deal with the elephant in the room.' "
He also said: "I declare to you that the derogatory language and restrictive laws in the Book of Discipline are immoral and unjust and no longer deserve our loyalty and obedience."
More than 1000 ministers have signed on to Talbert's call to action.
Rev. Frank Schaefer, the pastor who is about to go on trial, has said of his son: "After years of affirming him and standing by him through his struggles over sexual identity, to refuse to perform the wedding would have negated everything I told him, which was that you were created by God the way you turned out."

Interesting....3 out of the 4 kids of the pastor mentioned in this story are homosexual. Are genetics responsible for that or an accepting home environment? I tend to lean towards a home environment being the cause.

Good for this Methodist minister. It's time people woke up and realized
that it is not Christian to judge someone for they way they were born.
@Commodore: Let me get this straight: People actually believe that an "accepting home environment" is responsible for a child being gay?

3 out of 4 would definitely show some element of "choice" is involved in being gay. I think at least some percentage of people in this group do so purely out of personal choice. The percentate is even higher if you include the people who openly identify themselves as bi sexual. For them, anything is acceptible.

Good for the church. It will take a lot of courage to stand up against the invasion of homosexual "acceptance."

Back Talk:
Your inference that either this is the choice of "some" or due to the home environment is not sustainable.
In the first place that vast majority of homosexuals do not come from an "accepting" home environment. In the second place for those that are great parents and do create an accepting home environment the majority of their children are not homosexual.
The last stand of those against equal rights for homosexuals is that it is a lifestyle choice and/or a sin. It has now long since been disproved that it is a lifestyle choice. Subsequently it is not an act of choice and can not be a sin.

What makes you so sure it is because "an accepting home environment", not because the three brothers have similar genes?

ChrisB: Yes the church has the right to do that. But that right does not make it the right thing to do. All churches have made poor decisions throughout their histories. Denying equal rights to certain groups of people is only one of many. Rectifying those poor decisions is always extremely difficult for a church. What is more difficult is a church showing repentance after correcting its mistakes. Study your history.

@Back Talk, I agree. I think homosexuality has almost become a sort of fad
lately. Given the amount of attention that homosexuals get whenever they do
something these days, I think many people choose to live that lifestyle out of
desired attention.
Also, I found it interesting going around the news this past week was the story of a lesbian waitress who was given no tip but instead a note was left saying the patrons couldn't support her lifestyle. What was interesting was the waitress never told the family she was a lesbian, and yet she claims a tip wasn't left because she is gay. The comment was only that the family couldn't support her lifestyle, it didn't say anything about her being gay. And we're constantly told by those who support BLTG people that its impossible to tell someones sexuality by how they dress, act, or cut their hair. So how could this family has possibly known she was a lesbian?
Point is, I think people do things to get attention and I think gays often do dress/act in a way to ensure everyone knows they are gay. Its an attention thing often.

There's talk here about gay being a personal choice somehow, the goal being that defining it as a choice means that it can be modified by coercion or force, both of which religion is comfortable with. I just don't see it as a choice. Even today, and almost everywhere, being gay is to be abused and discriminated against. Sometimes in the most horrible ways. I can't imagine anyone choosing that.

And we're surprised by this? We are living in the last days, folks. Expect even more debauchery and evil from here on out. This day has been prophesied for millenia, and we are seeing prohesy unfold right before our very eyes. See 2 Timothy 3:1-7 for an insight of what we are dealing with from a religious perspective.

Your cries of equal rights don't hold much water unless you people all start fighting for polygamists to be able to marry, as well as 2 brothers who wish to be married. Come back when you truly support equal rights for all and I'll listen. Until then, you're still picking and choosing like everyone else.

Chris B: I would agree some BLTG's do things to get attention. And?? So do
a heckofa lot of other people. Everyone has different personal styles. Some
BLTG's like to dress flamboyantly, some do not. I know a lot of straight
people that dress in ways I would consider flamboyant. That's fine for
them. Some BLTG's are doing it to get attention for their cause.
That's fine also. Finding ways of bringing attention to a cause is one of
the most common things there is.
The main reason many BLTG's are bringing this to the forefront now is because there is change happening and that is how change happens. Same as all other civil rights changes in this country.
The point is... they deserve equal rights the same as the rest of us do. They are well on the way of receiving them. And a lot of the reason is... they bring attention to the mistreatment they have endured.

Chris B: Why yes I am "picking and choosing", never said I wasn't.
There is a definite difference between to gays marrying and two brothers
marrying. The same as there is a difference between an adult and a minor being
married. The same as there is a Difference between an adult and an animal
Jumping from equal rights for gays to "anything goes" is another attempt to confuse the issue. Because you are for one does not mean you are for all. That is the same argument used in the past to restrict non same races being able to marry or non same religions to be able to marry.

@Chris B:
1) Polygamists are already allowed to marry the (first) person of their choice. We're fighting to be able to do even that much, we can worry about those who want extra marriages once we cross this first bridge.
2) When did you choose to be straight? Have you any idea how much time and energy most of us spent simply trying to change to straight? Enormous amounts of energy, all to no avail - it is NOT a choice.
3) I don't really care what your religions do, as long as they stop interfering in the lives of people who do not belong to their organizations. Until that ends, there is going to be a fight.
@Filthy Kuffar;
Your "prophetic" fantasies are fiction. Nothing more. As for "decadent", why don't you look at how the religious leaders are living lives of luxury; now there's some real decadence.

@Chris B --
"people do things to get attention..."
Oh, sure.
All those gay kids living out on the streets because their parents threw them out -- just did it for the attention.
All those gay men and women getting bashed and even killed every day just for being gay -- just did it for the attention.
All those gay men and women getting fired, and not getting hired, every day just for being gay -- just did it for the attention.
All those gay couples being denied equal marriage rights just for being gay -- just did it for the attention.
"What was interesting was the waitress never told the family she was a lesbian, and yet she claims a tip wasn't left because she is gay."
This waitress -- a former Marine, btw -- initially shocked her customers because she has short hair, which the wife specifically commented on.
Another waiter at a different restaurant was left a non-tipping note reading (edited for DN): ""We hope you will see the tip your (gay) choices made you lose out on, and plan accordingly," "It is never too late for GOD'S love, but none shall be spared for (gays)."

You're using the same argument used in the past to restrict non same races or non same religions from marrying for polygamists or brothers not being able to marry. Why is the love between polygamists or two brothers any less real than between two gay men?

@Chris B --
"Your cries of equal rights don't hold much water unless you people all start fighting for polygamists to be able to marry"
Here we go again.
TWO facts are necessary in order to justify the legalization of gay marriage:
1. Marriage is a civil right;
2. Gay marriage in particular does not cause a significantly increased risk of harm compared to other forms of marriage.
Now, marriage in general clearly IS a civil right, as established by the US Constitution and reaffirmed by multiple SCOTUS decisions.
AND nobody has ever been able to show that gay marriage causes a significantly increased risk of harm to anyone.
In stark contrast, polygamy is very well known to convey a significantly increased risk of harm to women and children in particular.
Therefore, polygamy fails to qualify under the harm principle.
The harm principle is a universal legal principle that is very often used to limit our rights and freedoms. For instance, we have no "right" to drive drunk, because drunken driving significantly increases the risk of harm to others.
Similarly, polygamy conveys a significantly increased risk of harm. Therefore our government has an interest in continuing to ban it.

But I thought it was impossible for people to know others sexuality based on how they act, dress, talk, and cut their hair? Gays don't shove their sexuality in others faces and don't dress/cut their hair in a certain way in order to flaunt their life choices.
That's what we hear all the time.
So how did the family know she was a lesbian?

Asian markets slipped Thursday and the euro sat around four-month dollar lows as eurozone fears reared again, with Italy's politicians still unable to form a government weeks after an election.
The dollar also slipped as traders moved into the safety of the yen owing to growing uncertainty over the global outlook.
Tokyo fell 1.09 percent, Hong Kong was 0.98 percent lower, Sydney lost 0.33 percent, Seoul shed 0.13 percent and Shanghai tumbled 2.01 percent.
The losses followed a sell-off in Europe and the United States ahead of the reopening of banks in Cyprus after almost two weeks, under strict capital controls following the weekend's bailout that included a tax on some savings.
"Investors are not worried about Cyprus per se, as it comprises such a small component of Europe's GDP," SMBC Nikko Securities general manager of equities Hiroichi Nishi told Dow Jones Newswires.
But they are concerned about "the 'contagion effect' of a possible run on banks spreading to other parts of the eurozone," he said.
"It may yet have broader implications for economies there and lead to a longer-lasting 'risk-off' mentality," he added.
In Italy centre-left leader Pier Luigi Bersani struggled to form a coalition after polls in February that saw an anti-austerity party burst on to the political scene, holding the sway of power.
Bersani failed in talks with political parties to form a government after the anti-cuts Five-Star Movement rejected his overtures.
"Only a mentally ill person could have an itching desire to govern right now," Bersani said during talks with the group, which he has repeatedly tried to woo.
Business leaders and trade unions sounded the alarm this week over the parlous state of the eurozone's third largest economy, which is suffering its longest recession for 20 years.
Adding to traders' concerns was a rise in Italian borrowing rates for five-year debt to a five-month high as demand was weak in an closely watched auction.
Renewed fears over the eurozone sent the single currency tumbling below $1.28 for the first time in four months in London on Wednesday and edging further in New York.
In early Asian trade Thursday it bought $1.2783, compared with $1.2779 late in New York Wednesday. It also fetched 120.48 yen from 120.63 yen.
The dollar bought 94.20 yen, down from 94.40 yen in New York.
On Wall Street the Dow fell 0.23 percent, the S&P 500 was flat and the Nasdaq added 0.12 percent.
Shares also fell in Europe, with Frankfurt, Paris and Milan all losing around one percent.
On oil markets prices rose, with New York's main contract, light sweet crude for delivery in May gaining 13 cents to $96.71 a barrel and Brent North Sea crude for May delivery increasing 19 cents to $109.88.
Gold was at $1,605.40 an ounce at 0215 GMT compared with $1,594.10 late on Wednesday.

Get rid of all those earmarks
Published: Thursday, December 28, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, December 28, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
To The Editor: Because the 109th Congress left some appropriations to the next Congress, we have an opportunity to take a small step toward a budget for all America.
The simple step would be to eliminate all earmarks from every spending bill. By common consent representatives from both parties and all states would agree to forego the benefits they plan to "bring home" to their constituents.
For this one year, the unspent money could simply wait for the 110th Congress to plan with a clean slate.

For some reason, the Evox "games loaded on HDD" listing won't recognize my backups of Brute Force or Advent Rising. The games are copied onto the hdd correctly, and run when I launch them from file explorers.
I'm using Slayer's Evox and ripping from disc to hard drive using DVD2Xbox. The games are going to the same directory as I store all my game backups in (G:/games) and are being copied with the same app as I used to create the others (dvd2xbox). I have another 15 or so backups that list in the HDD games and work perfectly.
The DVD2Xbox game manager launches BF and AR just fine, and lists them alongside the other 15 games alphabetically, just like Evox ought to. It seems like only Evox can't see them.
Can anyone please help me with this problem? Not being able to launch these out of the main menu is irritating, and it just doesn't make any damn sense to me. Thanks in advance.

Wayne Shorter: 'Speak No Evil'
Wayne Shorter: 'Speak No Evil'
Web Resources
MURRAY HORWITZ, American Film Institute: Now, there's a composition into which any good jazz musician would love to sink his or her teeth. Hi, I'm Murray Horwitz, and that's the sound of jazz composition of the highest order, played by the very best instrumentalists. And that's why we're inducting composer and saxophonist Wayne Shorter's Speak No Evil into the NPR Basic Jazz Record Library.
HORWITZ: Wayne Shorter had already made his mark as a jazz composer by 1964, when this album was made. It was a little while after he had joined what became one of Miles Davis' greatest quintets. His compositions were to be one of the reasons for that greatness. But Speak No Evil is sort of a consolidation of Wayne Shorter's compositional excellence. It's so thorough and consistent and wide-ranging. It's almost a manifesto for his ideas. Those ideas were new 40 years ago, but they're still fresh today.
HORWITZ: I have to resist the temptation to use too many adjectives like "moody," "atmospheric" and "original," but Speak No Evil is all of those things. At the same time, it keeps a classic jazz flavor. It swings, and it's filled with the blues, wonderful improvisations and terrific ensemble playing. And what an ensemble! Bassist Ron Carter, drummer Elvin Jones, pianist Herbie Hancock, and trumpeter Freddie Hubbard, in addition to Wayne Shorter. How they play together!
HORWITZ: All in all, a classic and truly basic addition to your NPR Basic Jazz Record Library from five contemporary master musicians. It's called Wayne Shorter, Speak No Evil from Blue Note Records. For NPR Jazz, I'm Murray Horwitz.

I understand and respect that. The spring has been the subject of intense R&D with Rohrbaugh and Wolff. Its the best spring they can make, but it takes a POUNDING in this little gun.
Just for the sake of comparision, does anyone have a Seecamp? Great little guns. The LWS .380 manual says to change the recoil spring every 300 rounds. That slide assembly is subjected to far less punishment than the R-9 in 9mm. Seecamp will also tell you the gun requires no break-in, and that shooting it more won't make it work any better. The manual says shoot 43 and load the last 7 and from a 50 round box and you will be better off than shooting 200 rounds to "make sure it works."
My point is that small pocket pistols are what they are. The laws of physics and the properties of metal and springs are the same for everybody. All pistols are a tradeoff -- you pick the characteristics that are most important to you. But, don't be too quick to criticise others who may have different desired parameters for their carry guns.

Comic-Con Trailers: The Best of the Best, Ranked
Film, TV
Political cartoons | Cartoonist Milt Priggee stands by his editorial cartoon, which appeared in the Kitsap (Washington) Sun, depicting a recently slain toddler as an angel and "America's gun culture" as the devil. Priggee and the newspaper's editor have come under fire from the public and from the grandfather of the 2-year-old, who accuse him of using a tragedy to score political points. Priggee said his goal was to get people to think critically about gun culture: "A cartoon is a simple machine to make the reader think, not joke. It's not a comic strip, it's not entertainment, and this is where newspapers have fallen down. They have not taken any kind of opportunity to educate the public because a lot of times people come to an editorial cartoon and they say, 'Well there's nothing funny about this. Why is this in the newspaper?'" [MyNorthwest.com]
Manga | The 13th volume of Hajime Isayama's hit dystopian fantasy Attack on Titan sold 1.4 million copies in Japan during its first week of release: 1.13 million copies of the regular edition, and 270,000 of a special edition that includes the original video animation. Kodansha ordered a 2.75 million-copy initial print run, a record not only for the series but for the publisher as well. The 66th volume of One Piece holds the record in Japan for highest sales in the first week with nearly 2.3 million copies. [Crunchyroll]
Publishing | Darren Davis of Bluewater Productions, talks about the evolution of his company and the origin story of its Female Force bio-comics line: "[W]e saw a comic book done of Barack Obama and John McCain during the 2008 elections, and my partner joked and said, 'Why don't we do Hillary?' And I thought, oh my God, that's a brilliant idea.So I thought, let's do this, but let's do it differently. Let's not do it like everyone else, with a boring biography. We did it with a female empowerment angle. We released Hillary Clinton and Sarah Palin at the same time, and whether you like Sarah Palin or hate Hillary Clinton, you have to respect both of them for where they came from and who they are." [The Beaverton Leader]
Publishing | John Jackson Miller dissects the latest sales numbers and finds July 2013 to be the second-best month for comics sales in the direct market so far this century—actually, since 1997. Combined comics and graphic novel sales were up almost 17 percent compared to July 2012, and year-to-date sales are up almost 13 percent compared to last year. [The Comichron]
Retailing | Brian Hibbs, one of the founding members of the direct-market trade organization ComicsPRO, has left the group "because of the reactions of the Board to recent DC moves." He revealed his decision in the comments on his blog post about DC's allocation of 3D covers for Villains Month: "The org that I formed was intended to look out for the little guy; the current Board seems much more interested in keeping the big guys big. Democracy in action, I suppose, so I vote with my dollars." [ICv2]
Conventions | The Brooklyn Comics and Graphics Festival has come to an end, after establishing itself in just four short years as one of the most loved indie-comics events. A message posted on the event's blog under the headline "Thank You and Good Night" reads simply, "We have decided not to continue with BCGF. We had a great run and thank all of our colleagues for their support." [The Beat]
Creators | Garry Trudeau talks about Doonesbury, supporting wounded warriors, and his Alpha House show in a video interview with CNN's Jake Tapper. [The Daily Cartoonist]
Creators | Michael Aushenker profiles Rutu Modan, whose The Property, a tale of a Jewish woman returning to Poland to reclaim an apartment lost during the Holocaust, debuted at Toronto Comic Arts Festival: "When I go to vote, I have to decide who is bad and who is a good guy, but when I write I can support the Poles and the Jews. I'm much more interested in the gray areas. They're more closer to reality." [The Jewish Journal of Los Angeles]
Legal | The trial resumed today, if only briefly, in Tunis for the president of a Tunisian television network accused of "insulting sacred values" when he aired the adaptation of Marjane Satrapi's Persepolis. Tensions were so high in the courtroom that proceedings were postponed until April. The Oct. 7 broadcast resulted in an attempted arson attack on the network's offices and the arrest of some 50 protesters. Nessma TV President Nebil Karoui, who apologized in October, is charged with "insulting sacred values, offending decent morals and causing public unrest" because of the outrage triggered by a scene in Persepolis showing God, which is prohibited by Islam. [AFP]
Organizations | Stumptown Comics, the organization that puts on the Stumptown Comics Fest every year in Portland, Oregon, has added three new members to its board: Comic Book Legal Defense Fund Executive Director Charles Brownstein, Boilerplate co-author Anina Bennett and editor Shawna Gore. [Stumptown Comics]
Bluewater Comics has gone where others fear to tread: The publisher released its Gabrielle Giffords and Mitt Romney bio-comics last week via Nook and Kindle, while the print versions won't be out until Jan. 29. And both the Kindle and the Nook versions are priced at $1.99, two bucks cheaper than paper. (Links are to the Giffords comics because I saw that one first.)
Will retailers grab their torches and pitchforks to protest this move, as they did when they thought Dark Horse was pricing same-day digital releases below print? Probably not, for a couple of reasons: Bluewater isn't as big a player in the direct market — it isn't in Diamond's Top 10 publishers, and much of its line is aimed at children, who are not the core customers of the direct market.
Beyond that, though, dedicated apps like comiXology and Graphicly seem more like competition for comics stores than e-readers. I think that the latter has broader appeal: While some Kindle comics, like DC's exclusives, can be read only on the Kindle Fire device, the Bluewater comics can be read on any device with the Kindle or Nook app. This makes the comic more accessible than most, and it's easy for non-comics readers to stumble upon the comics while looking for books on Romney or Giffords. On the other hand, the comiXology/Comics +/Graphicly ecosystems are set up specifically for comics readers looking for something new — readers who are using digital to supplement or supplant their Wednesday purchases. In other words, with the Kindle and Nook, the subject matter comes first; with comiXology and other apps, the medium — comics — comes first.
This is not black and white, of course. Digital Manga has successfully marketed yaoi manga via the Kindle and the Nook, and DC's Kindle Fire exclusives were big news. The comiXology app even comes pre-loaded on the Kindle Fire. Still, most of the conversation about digital comics still seems to revolve around comics apps rather than e-readers. Interestingly, I'm not seeing the Bluewater comics on comiXology, so maybe this is a strategy to attract a different audience without cannibalizing direct market sales. (Or maybe comiXology just hasn't processed the files yet — who knows.)
As you may remember from a few months ago, BOOM! Studios jumped on the presidential-campaign bandwagon with its Decision 2012 comics, each of which features a different presidential candidate. The President Obama comic came out this week, and as Johanna Draper Carlson pointed out, no writer is credited — which is odd, in this day and age.
Odd enough that I e-mailed BOOM! Studios myself to see what the story was. Marketing Coordinator Emily McGuinness was quick to reply:
We hired a young, incredibly talented writer to do these, and that writer elected not to take credit. Why? Well, they saw it as a great opportunity to refine their craft but didn't want to be associated as the 'political comic book writer' moving forward. They've got some cool projects coming up, and wanted the focus of their next stage of career development to be on that. It made sense to us and we were happy to be respectful of their decision (no pun intended).
That makes for an interesting parlor game in about five years: Which prominent comics writer was behind the Obama comic? I'd look for someone with a love of text boxes and footnotes; the comic consists mainly of juxtaposed pictures and text, and it reads more like an illustrated prose bio than a comic. It's non-sequential, if that's a word.
The writing isn't bad, but if I were going to write a compelling comic (as opposed to a hagiography), I'd include the juicy details about Obama's 2004 election to the U.S. Senate, in which his opponent self-destructed in a sex scandal and the Illinois Republican Party drafted Alan Keyes as a replacement. Heck, I could do an entire miniseries on that election alone, and it's a shame the writer covered it in a single panel. Maybe they were too busy with that next project to give it much thought.
Ethan Persoff and Scott Marshall launched a new webcomic last week: John Wilcock – New York Years 1954-1971, the story of the underground publisher who, among other things, co-founded the Village Voice and hung around with Andy Warhol (and later wrote the iconic pop artist's biography). As Persoff says in the introduction, "His life bumps up with nearly every weird New York figure of the 60's and early 70's." Since that was sort of a Golden Age of New York weirdness, this should be an interesting ride. The comic is based on interviews with Wilcock and is going to be released online as eight-page "mini-issues." The first one is up now and includes not only Wilcock's arrival in New York but also a rather memorable interview with Marilyn Monroe.
A British firm called Musicroom has published a digital graphic novel about Nirvana frontman Kurt Cobain. The basis for this is the graphic novel Godspeed: The Kurt Cobain Graphic, originally published in 2003. Here's a bit of background on Godspeed, which apparently caused a bit of controversy but not enough to sustain its own Wikipedia page. (Check out the mixed reviews on that Amazon link.) Interestingly, according to Amazon, a new edition of the print graphic novel just came out in April.
Musicroom seems to specialize in sheet music and music instruction materials, both digital and print, and the graphic novel looks like a bit of a departure for them, but there is something very logical about this. In the ideal case, a graphic novel like this would be packaged with some of Cobain's music and maybe some video clips as well, making full use of the iPad's capability. That doesn't seem to be the case here, alas—from the front page, it just looks like a print graphic novel reformatted for the iPad. And there is something kind of weird about the image of Angel Kurt weeping over a set of menu options. Perhaps they should have thought about redesigning the cover for the app.
(Via the Seattle PI blog, which has a preview of the app.)

This paper presents an investigation on wind turbine (WT) contribution to the frequency control of noninterconnected island systems. The capability of WTs to participate in the primary frequency control and offer primary reserve is discussed. The investigation includes both transient frequency support (inertial response) and permanent frequency response (droop characteristic), as well as the combined application of these concepts. A quantitative analysis is presented for the expected benefits and drawbacks of each method, including the appropriate selection of their parameters. The power system of Rhodes Island has been selected as a study case, which includes different types of conventional generation and the three basic WT types, based on Active-Stall Induction Generator (ASIG), Doubly Fed Induction Generator (DFIG), and Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator (PMSG).

Hi team!
I've nearly completed this site for a client of mine: retrofitdesign.ca and like the sidebar's placement on the main page (in fact, to get that spot, I added padding to the top).
But on every other page, it's even further down. I suspect it's because of an element above (see what I mean here) but for the life of me can't seem to manipulate the correct top element. Adjusting the width on the one in the screenshot just changes the brown bar, but surely the base of the orange highlighted area is where my sidebar's padding begins... Yes?

No Elephants,but good progress on lower risk stuff.Vermillion # 136-evaluating says to me a decision to complete a marginal well.no mention of Tatum Dome (completing Up hole ?) or the Marathon Well (South pass #87)I like REM as they balance high risk/low risk stuff.
Galena, you may like REM because they balance high- and low risk stuff (don't most energy companies of any size do that?), but I like it because of their conservatism when compared with the rest of the industry:- successfull effort accounting (a rarity these days)- no hedging- no debtThe first two factors increase the volatility of REM's earnings, but overall, the earnings quality is head and shoulders above that of most domestic E&P companies.
I agree with you wholeheartedly. I have spoken with several of the folks at REM and am impressed by both their strategy and candor. This is a very clean company. We need to hit big with something like SKE's "Frontrunner" ..hitting singles in what is perceived to be a "home run" type of business just hasn't attracted big institutional money....yet....I think this is a very fine company and those I speak with in the industry seem to agree...patience is a virtue..Rgeards to all...DEV.

Cardiovascular diseases are the leading cause of mortality in industrialized countries. Treatment with statins is effective in primary prevention in patients at high cardiovascular risk. Statins are inhibitors of hydroxymethylglutarylcoenzyme A (HMG-CoA) reductase and are classed as lipid-lowering drugs. In 2010, atorvastatin was the biggest-selling drug in the world ($US10.73 billion). Increases in the average age of pregnant women and in the prevalence of morbid obesity have inevitably led to exposure to statins in certain women during the first trimester of pregnancy. The teratogenic risk attendant upon use of statins is unclear because the available data are contradictory, but statins remain contraindicated in pregnant women.
The benefits of statins in prevention of cardiovascular risk may not be solely due to their cholesterol-lowering effects: the so-called pleiotropic effects of vascular protection lead some experts to posit a potential benefit in the management of preeclampsia.
In this review we evaluate the theoretical benefits and supposed risks of statins in pregnant women. After a brief overview of the pharmacodynamic properties of statins, we address the question of the teratogenic risk of statins, and then detail the rationale for the therapeutic potential of statins in preeclampsia.

The plug-in does not work on a multiuser installation with hundreds of tables to deal with.
I am looking for the correct syntax to use to run an SQL command(?) that will replace "img src=" with my nonsense phrase of "bulldog" across all tables of the various users.

Little Theatre's 'Joseph' musical starts March 9
Published: Sunday, March 3, 2013 at 3:15 a.m.
Last Modified: Thursday, February 28, 2013 at 6:50 p.m.
The Spartanburg Little Theatre will present the Andrew Lloyd Webber favorite "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat," on the stage of David W. Reid Theater in the Chapman Cultural Center Friday-Saturday, March 15-16 at 8 p.m. and on March 9-10, March 16-17 at 3 p.m.
The biblical saga of Joseph and his coat of many colors comes to life in this family musical. Joseph, his father's favorite son, is a boy blessed with prophetic dreams. When he is sold into slavery by his jealous brothers and taken to Egypt, Joseph endures a series of events in which his spirit and humanity are continually challenged.
Presented by a cast of more than 60 youth and adults from the Upstate, "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" is set to a cornucopia of musical styles, from country-western and calypso to bubble-gum pop and rock 'n' roll.
Tickets to "Joseph and the Amazing Technicolor Dreamcoat" are available through the ticket office at the Chapman Cultural Center. Adult tickets are $25, senior citizens $24 and students $17. Group rates are also available.
For tickets, call 542-2787 or visit www.

- 1 large egg, (or 1/4 cup egg substitute, if desired)
- 2 tablespoons onion, finely minced
- 2 tablespoon low-fat milk
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- dash or two freshly ground pepper
- 2 to 6 tablespoons nonalcoholic beer, chicken broth or water, (optional)

- Step 1
- In a large bowl, combine the first 8 ingredients, mixing well with a wooden spoon or your hands. Form into about 40 bite-size meatballs.
- Step 2

- Step 3
- Turn the meatballs over, adding the beer or other liquid if necessary to prevent sticking. Cover and brown about 5 minutes more, or until meatballs are cooked through.
- Step 4
- Combine the chili sauce and jelly and pour over the meatballs. Simmer gently for about 10 minutes, stirring and basting the meatballs frequently until the sauce thickens nicely. Serve with toothpicks.

Jackson-Type Inequality for Doubling Weights on the Sphere

In the one-dimensional case, Jackson's inequality and its converse for weighted algebraic polynomial approximation, as well as many important, weighted polynomial inequalities, such as Bernstein, Marcinkiewicz, Nikolskii, Schur, Remez, etc., have been proved recently by Giuseppe Mastroianni and Vilmos Totik under minimal assumption on the weights. In most cases this minimal assumption is the doubling condition. In this paper, we establish Jackson's theorem and its Stechkin-type converse for spherical polynomial approximation with respect to doubling weights on the unit sphere.

Was the Intel Core 2 the first Intel CPU to have multiple CPU cores?

No the Pentium Dual cores were, more specifically the Pentium D series processors. The Intel Processor comparison utility show that the Intel® Pentium® D Processor 805 was released Q1 2005 and it was the first true Dual core consumer CPU released by intel (There were P4's that included hyper-threading). The first Core2 I could find was the Core™2 Duo Processor E4300 which released in Q3 2006.

By Alex McVeigh, Pentagram Staff WriterMay 15, 2009
Deep in the Pentagon, near the Department of the Army Corridor, 17 Soldiers spend their days performing a vital service for senior Army officials.
The staff of the Army Executive Dining Facility cooks for the Secretary of the Army, the Army Chief of Staff and other Army leaders, and they do it all with smiles on their faces. Whether it's serving meals to Secretary of the Army Pete Geren and guests of his, or just running a five-star establishment for the Pentagon's employees, these Soldiers are on the front lines of top-notch service.
At 9 a.m., the kitchen is almost deserted. Several Soldiers are folding napkins and wiping down plates adorned with the Army seal to remove any possible water stains.
Other Soldiers arrange table settings, vacuum and run a few loads through the dishwasher. ''It's a very enjoyable job, the hardest part is just balancing everything," said Staff Sgt. Zachary Brubaker, a former Soldier with The Old Guard.
''Paying attention to detail is a high priority, just like it is in The Old Guard. You've got to be on your P's and Q's because you're working for the top people in the Army."
The 17 Soldiers basically run their own restaurant. They handle everything from cleaning to dishwashing at the end of the day. With top level clients, you might expect the staff to be strained while meeting the demand, but the exact opposite is true. Jokes fly back and forth between the staff at all times, and no one is above getting a prank played on them, though retaliation is inevitable.
It's this chemistry between staff that allows them to stay relaxed during the rushes, and enjoy their jobs. ''I love working with the people here, and the generals and Secretary Geren are great guests," said Staff Sgt. Paul Sotelo. ''It's pretty easy to keep a smile on your face, not a lot of people have the privilege to work for the Secretary of the Army."
Head of the kitchen is Sgt. 1st Class Brad Turner, or as viewers of the Pentagon Channel might know him, ''The Grill Sergeant."
The self-titled show is in its third season, and features Turner demonstrating cooking techniques that he has learned during his time in the Army.
The other Soldiers in the AEDF aren't fazed by having a celebrity in their midst, just the opposite, he's often the butt of jokes about his show. ''The atmosphere here is very light, and I take jabs all the time about the show," Turner said. ''I'm very easy going, but also very serious about the food that goes out there. The atmosphere here is light, which helps us not get too tense during heavy times."
The chemistry from the staff comes from careful selection, which is done by Chief Warrant Officer Verona Williams. She gives them a thorough interview process, which covers everything from culinary to interpersonal skills.
''You can be a very talented person, but if you don't get along with people, you're a distraction," Williams said. ''We have great NCOs in here, they're good leaders because they were well-trained, they are all about accomplishing their mission."
As the lunchtime hour approaches, the kitchen gradually gets busier. Turner walks around fixing little things, like removing a pirouette from a cheesecake platter, because ''it made the plate look too busy." Drink glasses are filled, salads are assembled and the hot food is prepared.
When it's time to bring out the main course - today it's salmon with a dill beurre blanc sauce served with rice and asparagus - an assembly line of sorts is set up to get the food out efficiently.
Wednesday, guests at the Army Executive Dining Facility featured a delegation from Greece, a luncheon hosted by Secretary of the Army Pete Geren and a meeting of congressional wives. On normal days, the printer at the far end of the kitchen would be spitting out tickets from regular diners, but due to the amount of groups present, the facility is closed to the regular public.
''With so much going on today, we can't risk falling behind," Turner said. ''The top officials are our first priority." On normal days, guests would be treated with a lagniappe, which is a Creole word for something free.
Turner thinks of a specialty every day to serve to guests, it might be cornbread, or garlic rolls with pesto, or an assortment of fresh cheeses. Sgt. 1st Class Solomon Gilbert serves as the noncommissioned officer in charge of the AEDF, which he calls the most visible establishment he has been in charge of.
''A facility like this really gives us a chance to tailor an individual dish to the customer, like a normal civilian restaurant," he said. ''For example, here salads are big. People are back and forth for meetings all day, so we try not to give them a real heavy meal that will weigh them down for the rest of the day."
By 1 p.m., the lunch rush has closed, and the Soldiers are in full cleaning mode.
Staff Sgt. Jobeth Yambao and Spc. Wayne Darden work the dish pit, and the wait staff cleans the dining area. They are a very self-sufficient group, running a high profile establishment with limited staff.
''It's nice to see new faces, but we have plenty of regular customers," Brubaker said. ''It's pretty neat to go up to people and ask 'The usual'' and they nod."
The other Soldiers who work at the AEDF are Sgts. 1st Class Patrick Lovato and Vilaykone Sayanorath; Staff Sgts. Marcella Reader-Childs, John-Joseph Williams, Vincent Touchet and Donna Alston; Spcs. Marc-Paul Susa and William Stewart and Pfc. John Deane.
While their business consists primarily of catering to top-level Army officials, kitchen staff prepares every meal like it's going to the president of the United States.
''When we step in the kitchen, it doesn't matter if the guest is a four-star general or a civilian, they're going to get our best effort every time," Turner said. ''This is the big leagues, and we need our A-game every day."

Q (radio show)
|Other names
|Running time
|90 minutes
|Home station
|CBC Radio One
|Public Radio International (USA)
|Recording studio
|Canadian Broadcasting Centre, Toronto
|Air dates

q is a Canadian arts magazine show produced by and airing on CBC Radio One, with syndication to public radio stations in the United States through Public Radio International.[1] The program mainly features interviews with prominent cultural and entertainment figures, though subjects and interviewees also deal with broader cultural topics such as their social, political and business aspects, as well as weekly panels on sports and media issues on Mondays and Fridays respectively.
Though not the highest-rated show on CBC Radio One (The Current and As It Happens hold that distinction), q is the highest rated show in its timeslot in CBC history, surpassing even Peter Gzowski who previously hosted the second hour of Morningside during the slot. The show is also regarded as standing out in CBC Radio One's schedule through attracting a younger, more socially media adept audience than other CBC Radio programming.[2][3]
Q launched in April 2007 and was hosted by Jian Ghomeshi until October 2014.
Shad was chosen by the CBC in March 2015 as Q's new permanent host.[3] His official debut as host was April 20. The show was also re-branded as q at the same time.[4]
|This section does not cite any sources. (February 2014) (Learn how and when to remove this template message)
The program airs live Monday to Friday at 10:00 a.m. (10:30 NT), and an abbreviated edition of the morning show is then repeated 12 hours later. The program runs for 90 minutes, except for Fridays, which runs for two hours and includes the "Friday Live" segment. The evening repeat runs for one hour, although due to lesser time restraints (such as less time lost to news breaks) it is able on most days to air all of the feature content from the 90-minute daytime edition, although some shorter interstitial segments are edited out. Stations carrying the show in the United States also broadcast the one-hour edition.
It is broadcast mostly from CBC's Toronto studios, although the show will air from another city in connection with a major event, such as the 2010 Winter Olympics or the Sundance Film Festival.
On Fridays, the show includes a theme called "Friday Live", where featured musicians are invited for an interview primarily as the opening segment with live performances throughout the program. Weekly contributors include Elvira Kurt, with her "Cultural Hall of Shame" segment, and Torquil Campbell, with his "Rant or Rave" segment.
Q first aired on April 16, 2007, replacing Freestyle in the network's afternoon programming block. It moved to its current time slot, replacing Sounds Like Canada, in fall 2008.
The name was chosen by the staff of the show from a list they themselves had compiled. A test run of the show was made using the name Radar. Other possible names (some clearly tongue-in-cheek) included "State-of the-Arts in Canada", "Awesometown", "Afternoon Delight", "Smells like Canada", "Full Duplex Repeater", "Skybox Three" (the room in Toronto's Rogers Centre where much of the show was created), "Ghomer's Pile", or one even closer to Jian Ghomeshi, the show host of Iranian descent, "Royal Canadian Air Farsi". Names a little closer to the mark included Studio Q and The Cue.[5][6] According to Ghomeshi, "A couple of the ... suggestions came close", when the name 'Q' was brought up "there was a pause in the room and [the Q team] went 'Yes, that's it.' It felt like the right name. It's an enigmatic letter [they] hope will become associated with the show."[5]
Beginning in 2013, a one-hour weekly spinoff series, Q The Music, was added to the CBC Radio 2 schedule, airing a selection of interviews and performances by musicians previously broadcast on the daily program. On April 15, 2015, the show changed its name to the lower case q.[4]
2009 Thornton interview[edit]
On April 8, 2009, Billy Bob Thornton and his musical group The Boxmasters made an appearance on Q that was widely criticized and received international attention after Thornton was persistently unintelligible and discourteous to Ghomeshi.[7][8] Thornton eventually explained he had "instructed" the show's producers to not ask questions about his movie career.[9][10] Ghomeshi had mentioned Thornton's acting in the introduction. Thornton had also complained Canadian audiences were like "mashed potatoes without the gravy".[11][12] The following night, opening for Willie Nelson at Toronto's Massey Hall, Thornton said mid-set he liked Canadians but not Ghomeshi, which was greeted with boos and catcalls.[13] The Boxmasters did not continue the tour in Canada as, according to Thornton, some of the crew and band had the flu.[14]
Ghomeshi and comedian Alan Park made a mock follow-up interview promoting the 2009 Air Farce Live television special. The sketch has Ghomeshi asking Thornton (Alan Park) about his plans for New Years, leading to the actor responding similar answers to the April interview. The two continue to banter until they break character and laugh around.
Ghomeshi's dismissal[edit]
Ghomeshi was fired from the CBC in October 2014, amidst a mounting series of allegations that he had sexually assaulted a series of women,[15] including former Q producer Kathryn Borel.[16]
After his departure, the program was hosted by a rotating series of guest hosts, including existing CBC staffers such as Brent Bambury, Piya Chattopadhyay, Tom Power, Allan Hawco and Talia Schlanger, and outside figures such as Wab Kinew,[17] Rachel Giese, Damian Abraham, Candy Palmater, Shad, Daniel Richler and Sean Rameswaram. Many of the guest hosts were effectively auditioning for a place on the shortlist of potential new permanent hosts.[18]
During the transition process, the CBC faced controversy when it announced that it intended to remove all Ghomeshi-hosted segments of the program from its online archive of previously-broadcast content.[19] They ultimately reversed this decision in the face of public disapproval, allowing the content to remain accessible online for the standard two-year period applicable to all other CBC content, but reaffirming that no content hosted by Ghomeshi will be re-aired on terrestrial radio.[19]
Late in the guest-hosting phase, Measha Brueggergosman and Kevin Smith each hosted a single show as part of a "Thursday surprise" feature, in which the show would be turned over for one day to a guest host whose identity had not been announced in advance.
The "final five" shortlist of host candidates comprised Shad, Palmater, Richler, Rameswaram and Power.[18] Shad's selection was announced on March 10, 2015.[3] His debut as host was on April 20, with a live broadcast from the CBC's Glenn Gould Studio.[18] Producers have indicated that under Shad, the program will increase its focus on music and will adopt a looser, less structured format.[20]
Concurrently with Shad's debut as host, the program also unveiled new theme music composed by Canadian musician Bahamas.
Television versions[edit]
Filmed footage of interviews and live musical performances from the radio program airs on CBC Television and YouTube.[21]
The show began to be syndicated in the fall of 2014 for weekend airings to commercial television stations in the United States through PPI (the former Program Partners), a major syndicator of Canadian programming into the American television market.[22] Due to Ghomeshi's dismissal from the CBC mere weeks after its premiere, the PPI version of the show abruptly had to feature a 'best-of' compilation of the week's interviews and musical performances (similar to some sports radio show television simulcasts) with the show's interim hosts instead with Ghomeshi's segments completely removed, rather than the intended format of replays of archival content with Ghomeshi throughout several years. The show was effectively relaunched in early May 2015 with Shad taking a greater role in the PPI version of the series.[23]

MIDLAND (April 24, 2014) Charmelle Henry, 45, of Carrollton, was in the Midland County Jail Thursday charged with two counts of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon after a corn dog dispute turned violent.
Her bond was set at $100,000.
The charges stem from an incident on Saturday in Midland in which a woman flashed a knife and threatening store workers after becoming upset over a 75-cent corn dog because it had been microwaved.
The woman demanded a second uncooked corn dog and threatened the lives of store workers as they tried to serve her, police said.

Stuy Town Debt Holders Give Tishman Speyer and BlackRock Ten Days to Pay
This means foreclosure will likely come sooner rather than later.
Not even a week after the owners of Stuyvesant Town and Peter Cooper Village defaulted on a loan payment for the first time, mezzanine debt holders are demanding payment and taking steps toward forcing a foreclosure. A group led by Winthrop Realty Trust (which holds about $300 million of the complex's debt) sent a letter to Tishman Speyer and BlackRock giving a deadline of ten days to make good on the missed $16.1 million payment. If the owners don't, the group says they will pursue "rights and remedies," which likely means a foreclosure sale. They can act within three to six months. Of course, the property was bought for $5.4 billion in 2006 and as recently as October was valued at $1.8 billion, so foreclosure doesn't look promising for anyone either. "The sharks are circling in the waters," said New York City Councilman Daniel Garodnick, a Peter Cooper Village resident who is worried about how foreclosure will affect services and rents for the roughly 25,000 residents. "This is a point of great concern."

PulaskiFest's History
PulaskiFest goes back many, many years. The old Maple Shade Inn's tree-lined grounds provided space for musical events and ice cream socials. African American churches sponsored homecomings and singing. The Pulaksi Fire Department Band, under the director of Professor Fire played in the park gazebo. The first grand celebration, however, was in 1939, the county's centennial. There was a parade in downtown Pulaski complete with floats, bands, lovely ladies in evening gowns and an outdoor drama held at the recently built "Pulaski Athletic Park," now known as "Calfee Park."
June 11, 1994, though, marked the beginning of modern festivals. "Depot Days" was born in celebration of the renovated Pulaski Railway Station, originally built in 1888, now on the National Historical Register. The first Depot Day brought the Norfolk &Western historic steam engine, the 611, to town. Thousands of visitors came to Pulaski that day. Since that time heritage and transportation festivals and garden festivals have given way to PulaskiFest, a time to celebrate our common life together and invite visitors from all around to come to the Town of Pulaski and enjoy our hospitality.
