Media release from Sierra Club Canada:
February 9, 2009 – Sierra Club Canada is raising the alarm that the Budget Implementation Act introduced Friday will eviscerate the Navigable Waters Protection Act (NWPA), an Act that has protected Canada's waterways since before Confederation.
"This is just a power grab on the part of the Transport Minister," said Stephen Hazell, Executive Director, "John Baird is attempting to eliminate all legal limits on his discretion to authorize projects that damage waterways and obstruct navigation."
The amendments embedded in the budget implementation bill would authorize the Minister of Transportation to establish "classes of works" and "classes of navigable waters" that may be exempt from all or part of the NWPA, and to change, at any time, the criteria used to assess whether a waterway is navigable or whether a work or type of work may interfere with navigation. The amendments also remove any reference to the previous four named works: bridge, causeway, dam and boom, which by their very nature interfere with navigation and aquatic ecosystems.
"This bill is about throwing out all of the regulatory requirements relating to permits to obstruct waterways and navigation, and giving total discretion to the minister," explained Celeste Côté, National Water Campaigner. "Since the NWPA triggers the environmental assessment process for works that are a significant obstruction to navigation, leaving what constitutes "a significant obstruction" up to the Minister is problematic because environmental assessments can be avoided, in an entirely non-transparent manner."
"This all ties in with the government's scheme to gut the Canadian Environmental Assessment Act under the guise of minimizing bureaucracy," explained Hazell, "The whole point of EA legislation is to ensure that governments have the environmental information they need in order to make good decisions about development. Without EA we will get bad projects."
The amendments to the NWPA are based on a report submitted to the Ministry of Transport in June 2008 by the parliamentary Standing Committee on Transport, Infrastructure and Communities, which failed to consult any stakeholders from the environmental, paddling, tourism, or First Nation communities.

Occlusal Guards
Occlusal guards are made to protect your teeth from the effects of nighttime grinding. Over time, nighttime grinding can cause severe problems for your teeth, including significant decay and damage to the surface of your teeth. This can diminish the life and function of your teeth.
Occlusal guards provide a barrier between the upper and lower teeth during nighttime grinding. Down the road, occlusal guards may help you avoid paying unnecessary costs in dental restorations.
We customize your occlusal guard to fit the dimensions of your mouth and protect your teeth. Because your occlusal guard is fitted for you individually, it will stay in your mouth comfortably when you sleep and make it easier for you to breathe and speak.
If you have any questions about receiving an occlusal guard or what you need to do when coming to be fitted for an occlusal guard, please give us a call.

How do I choose a lawyer?
Consider the following:
Comfort Level - Are you comfortable telling the lawyer personal information? Does the lawyer seem interested in solving your problem?
Credentials - How long has the lawyer been in practice? Has the lawyer worked on other cases similar to yours?
Cost - How are the lawyer's fees structured - hourly or flat fee? Can the lawyer estimate the cost of your case?
City - Is the lawyer's office conveniently located?
Not sure what questions to ask a lawyer?
Here are a few to get you started:
- How long have you been in practice?
- How many cases like mine have you handled?
- How often do you settle cases out of court?
- What are your fees and costs?
- What are the next steps?

Communicating an Emergency Response Plan
A company develops an emergency response plan to be used in the event to natural disasters such as floods, hurricanes, and earthquakes and human disasters such as explosions, brownouts or workplace violence.

Is this one of the signs?
I used that red tornado to show where I am on that map!
I used to think Alaska had weird weather (wrong). I used to think Colorado had weird weather (I remember one day when at 12:00 p.m. it was 70 degrees and sunny, but 3:00 p.m. it was snowing). But I think Michigan takes the cake. Today I awoke to light freezing rain. At lunch it was 33 degrees and raining. At 4:00 p.m. when I left work it was raining (and the snow and ice was falling off the trees/powerlines in dangerous chunks). When I put Chunky to bed at 7:00 p.m. it was "movie" raining (coming down in those blowy sheets..) thundering, and lightening (I think I just made up a word.) Now at 8:15 we're under a tornado warning until 11:00 p.m. Guess who's not going to bed until 11:00 p.m.?
I HATE tornados! My brother was in the huge Oklahoma City tornados of 1998, and those tornados that hit Utica, Illinois and leveled that bar where everyone died a year or two ago--that bar used to be owned by my uncle! Thank GOD he was an alcholic and didn't realize it until he bought that bar and drank the profits to the point they had to sell and he got help.
So I guess this is a bonus for me (aside from worrying incessantly about The Mad Scientist being out there), I'll get a bunch of my NoMoMoBO scarf done for the KO tonite!

Morning Shopping
I had to drop James off this morning for Academic Team practice so I thought I would pick up a few things at the store. The usual stuff for someone on the Fast Metabolism Diet. I bought raw almonds, white nectarines, oatmeal, chicken, cucumbers, almond milk and salad mix. I also bought the staples for the kids – Ramen noodles, potatoes, milk and a few other things.
I like shopping early in the morning because it's not crowded and it wasn't. Unfortunately the only store open that early is WalMart. WalMart undoubtedly has a team of people whose job is to figure out how to piss off customers.
Today their idea was, besides blocking every aisle while restocking, was to clean the floors with a machine that looks like a Zamboni. I understand they need to clean the floors but wouldn't a better time, for a 24 hour store, be at 3 AM not 7 AM? Also maybe hire someone who watches where he is going while driving his automotive mop on wheels. And one final thought on the subject; maybe it would be a good idea for him to yield for the customers instead of expecting the customers to scatter as he approaches.
Okay I lied, one more thought. A nice mop handle across his forehead, as he drives by, would correct a couple of the issues. Any jury comprised of Walmart shoppers would never convict. Standing ovation? Yes. Convict? No.
But I completed my shopping in spite of the reckless driving of the motorized Merry Maid. I even managed not to bludgeon a mother and daughter, who obviously mistook me for someone who wanted them to look at every I was interested in buying.
Do you ever get the impression you are invisible? You are standing in front of an item when another customer walks up and stands between you and the thing you are interested in buying. As if they can't see you. I don't know whether they are rude or stupid. In the case of mom and daughter, I think both.
Another favorite is the "close stander."
You are in line and the person behind you stands so close you can feel their breath on the back of your neck. You move forward to try to get away and they move even closer. I know I am irresistible to women but give me some room. And please, for God's sakes, cover your mouth when you cough. If you are going to stand so close, we are wearing the same shoes, I'd rather you didn't hack up a lung on the back of my shirt.
As you can tell, I love shopping.
Anyone know a good home delivery service?

I don't have time for a long blog post, but will be back later to fulfill that. In the meantime, I thought I'd give you a cool tip I've seen circulating around.
See this link?
Yea. That one. Wait! Don't click on it yet.
This is a GREAT tool to use if you need a little push on your writing. For example. I will sit down and write x amount of words for y minutes.
Now, the link does not have a timer. All it is, is a random number generator. It will randomly select a number between 1-1000. Yes, I have gotten one. More on that later.
You take your number and that is the amount of words you must write. No questions asked. You might only get 31. That's great. Write your 31 words. And if you're brave, click it again afterward. This time you might get 954. Yes, you have to write that too.
I love this when you want to get a little writing done but aren't really feeling that motivated. Or perhaps as a… when I finish writing x amount of words, I can get on twitter/facebook/blogs/read a book…. whatever.
If you get 1, click it again and then add 1 to whatever you get. I've done that when I have gotten low numbers. I will click three times if I get a double digit the first two times. I got 44 the first time, 76 the second time and then I got a whopping 727 the third time. But guess what? I wrote every single one of those words.
I hope it is a nice little motivator for you. Oh, and here's the link again.
P.S. Before I found this tip, I used the dice method. I would use either 3 or 4 dice that I picked up from the dollar store. If I only had a short period of time, I only used three. If I had much longer, I would use 4. Roll the dice one at a time and write each number down in the order you roll it. (you could use the same dice, but I liked rolling them all at the same time and picking them up from left to right). At the end, that's your word count goal. I liked the dice because they were portable. Yes, I know I'm a nerd.

From George Washington to Commodore John Hazelwood, 11 October 1777
To Commodore John Hazelwood
Skippack Camp [Pa.] Octo. 11th 1777
Colo. Smith informs me that the Enemy have been raising Batteries near the Landing place at Webbs Ferry with an intent to cover their passage over to Provinc Island.1 If the Battery is erected upon the Meadow or upon the Wharf it may be much injur'd or the approach to it from the City renderd very difficult by cutting the Meadow Banks in five or six places from the mouth of Schuylkill up to the Mouth of Hollanders Creek2 and laying the whole County under Water. If the Dyke that dams out Hollanders Creek was likewise cut it wou'd contribute much to raise the water. this should be done in the night, and when it is once effected the Gallies might keep any persons from repairing the breeches. I beg this may be done as speedily as possible and with secrecy.3 As the security of the Fleet and the obstructions depends upon keeping possession of Fort Mifflin & Red Bank, I hope you will cooperate with the Gentlemen in the Land service & endeavour to make use of evr'y mean to effect so salutary a measure. I am Sr your most Obet Serv.
P.S. was any thing ever done towards destroying the Hay upon the Meadows below Philadelphia I think I recommended it to you by Colo. Smith when he went down.
Copy, in Richard Kidder Meade's writing, DLC:GW; Varick transcript, DLC:GW.
2. Hollander's Creek flows into the Delaware River about a mile east of the mouth of the Schuylkill River, directly opposite the western end of League Island.
3. The banks apparently had been cut already, for Capt. Lt. Francis Downman of the Royal Artillery, who took a battery to Province Island early on 11 Oct., says in his entry for that date that his men had to pull two 12–pound cannon "through a mile of mud and water, for the whole island is a flat, and from rain, and the rebels cutting the embankment, the whole was nearly under the water" (Whinyates, Services of Francis Downman description begins F. A. Whinyates, ed. The Services of Lieut.-Colonel Francis Downman, R.A., in France, North America, and the West Indies, between the Years 1758 and 1784.

Interview on CNN's Late Edition with Wolf Blitzer
Secretary Colin L. Powell
Washington, DC
January 19, 2003
MR. BLITZER: Mr. Secretary, thanks once again for joining us.
SECRETARY POWELL: Good morning, Wolf, and congratulations on your fifth anniversary.
MR. BLITZER: Oh, thank you very much. A quick question everybody in the country, people around the world, want to know: Will there be a war with Iraq?
SECRETARY POWELL: We're still hoping for a peaceful solution, but it is up to Saddam Hussein and Iraq to make that decision. Dr. Blix and Dr. El Baradei are in Baghdad today. I hope they will make it clear to Saddam Hussein that he is running out of time, he has got to cooperate; moreover, he has got to disarm and he has got to do it in a way that the inspectors don't have to go hunt-and-peck looking for things, but that Iraq comes forward and meets the will of the international community that it must disarm of its weapons of mass destruction. If they do that, there is still a chance for a peaceful solution.
MR. BLITZER: How much time do the Iraqis have?
SECRETARY POWELL: Well, we'll see. I think time is running out. We can't keep this up forever. And we'll all look forward to receiving the report from Dr. Blix and Dr. El Baradei next Monday, the 27th of January, at the United Nations. And after that, the Security Council will have an opportunity to make its judgment as to what should happen next, and the President of the United States will also make his judgment as to what he thinks should happen next.
MR. BLITZER: Well, you're quoted as saying earlier in the week, you said, "We believe a persuasive case will be there at the end of the month that Iraq is not cooperating."
SECRETARY POWELL: I think there is a persuasive case there now. Iraq has given us a false declaration in December, still has not accounted for stocks of various biological and chemical agents that we know they had. And there is a discrepancy between what they had and what they are now reporting they have, and they have not solved those discrepancies. And we simply can't walk away from that kind of discrepancy.
So there is a case now. And we will see how strong that case looks when Dr. Blix and Dr. El Baradei report, but I think it's fairly persuasive that they are not cooperating, and I hope they understand as a result of the visit of the two chief inspectors today that time is running out on them.
MR. BLITZER: It's one thing not to cooperate. It's another thing to find a smoking gun. The inspectors say so far they have not found a smoking gun. Is not cooperating enough of a smoking gun, if you will, to justify war?
SECRETARY POWELL: That will be a matter for the Council to decide, and the President will make his own decision. But, you know, look at what we have found. We have found false declarations. There are all sorts of toxic agents that are unaccounted for. And then this week, the inspectors found chemical rockets. Now, those rockets are not just laying benignly around. What are they doing there? Why --
MR. BLITZER: But they were --
SECRETARY POWELL: What difference does it make? The point is that they are designed for a unique purpose, and that is to carry a chemical agent. And so they should have been declared. They should have been destroyed. This is the kind of weapon that Iraq says it no longer has, and yet there it is.
Now, whether that constitutes one person's smoking gun or some other person's smoking gun, I think it contributes to a body of evidence that suggests Iraq is not disarming and is not cooperating with efforts of the United Nations inspectors to get them to disarm. And that's what we're looking for, and I hope that message comes through clearly today when they meet with the Iraqi officials.
MR. BLITZER: Well, the Iraqis say it was simply a slip, they made a mistake.
SECRETARY POWELL: Yeah. Well, how many other slips are there out there? They are laying there. They are in a facility. It's not a slip. They knew they were there. Somebody knew they were there. The inspectors found them. They didn't have a chance to hide these. How many other slips are there?
And when you look at the declaration, when you look at the efforts they have been taking to hide things, when you see the documents that are relevant -- relevant to knowing the truth -- are being squirreled away in the homes of scientists, when scientists are not allowed to come forward, then you can't say that they are participating in the effort to make sure they have no weapons of mass destruction.
And so I think their record so far, since the passage of UN Resolution 1441, is not a good record. And they have very little time left to make it a good record. And everybody knows what they have to do: come forward, tell the truth, give an accurate declaration, tell us what happened to these stocks of biological and chemical agents, tell us what you've got and put it out there for the inspectors to see. If you say you don't have them, if you say you're clean, then come clean.
And time is running out and we just can't keep hunting and pecking and looking and trying to see if we can capture something or discover something. Iraq is supposed to be cooperating in this effort. Iraq is supposed to be disarming. And they have not established, to my satisfaction anyway, and I think to the satisfaction of the international community, that they are moving in good faith to disarm, which is what they're supposed to do under the resolution.
MR. BLITZER: You keep saying time is running out. How much time do they have?
SECRETARY POWELL: I'm not prepared to give a time here today, Wolf, because I think it's important that we continue this deliberative process that was set out in UN Resolution 1441. Dr. Blix and Dr. El Baradei will report next Monday. The Council will hear their report, take their report into account. So will the President of the United States and his advisors. And then we'll see what happens next or what steps are appropriate after that.
MR. BLITZER: You have heard the chief UN inspector Hans Blix say that after January 27th, a week from tomorrow, they still need 60 days thereafter to come up with another review before any action necessarily could be taken. Do you accept that argument?
SECRETARY POWELL: I heard Dr. Blix, and what he's referring to, of course, is another UN Resolution, 1284, which has another deadline to it.
MR. BLITZER: That was back in 1998.
SECRETARY POWELL: Right. Well, 1999, if I'm not mistaken. Early 1999.
But the real issue is how the Council views this. 1441, the latest resolution, was rather specific. We want an accurate, complete and full declaration of what you're doing. We want cooperation with inspections. We don't want you to frustrate their efforts. Iraq is making it hard for us to perform aerial reconnaissance in support of the UN inspectors. And so far, they have not acted in a way that suggests they're serious about disarming. And if they're not serious about disarming, the Council should recognize that next week and start to decide what to do, and not just say let's just keep going and slip into the 1284, the other resolution, route.
And so I know Dr. Blix is operating under two resolutions, but the fact of the matter, it will be up to the Council to decide what happens next after Dr. Blix reports and Dr. El Baradei reports.
MR. BLITZER: Some of the allies -- the French, other permanent members of the Security Council, the Russians -- say they need a second resolution before there can be any war. You disagree with them. Why?
SECRETARY POWELL: I'm saying that there is more than enough evidence, and frankly there is more than enough authority in previous resolutions, if it becomes necessary to act unilaterally or with likeminded nations.
But there are a number of nations who say they would like to see a second resolution. Well, the United States will examine the evidence that is before us after the two inspectors report next week. We'll consult with our friends and allies. And it is up to the Security Council to decide whether or not they want a referral to Council to see whether or not a second resolution is appropriate at this time.
And if that is what the Council wants to do, the United States would certainly participate in that debate. But the President has always said, from the very beginning, that the object is to disarm Iraq, and if the UN is not willing to do it and is not willing to be relevant in a situation such as this, the United States reserves the option, if it feels it must do so, to act with likeminded nations to disarm Iraq.
MR. BLITZER: But as you well know, being a former Chairman of the Joint Chiefs of Staff, you can't keep tens of thousands, hundreds of thousands of US troops in the Persian Gulf region forever in an unlimited capacity, 50- or 60- or 70,000 Marines aboard amphibious assault ships under a hot sun in the Persian Gulf. How long can you keep them there? So there is a sort of deadline that's created by the deployment.
SECRETARY POWELL: The President has not made a decision. These are deployments with the purpose of supporting diplomacy and making sure there is no doubt in Saddam Hussein's mind that we're going to keep the pressure on. If we had not shown a willingness to put in place a military force, the inspectors would never have gotten in. Iraq isn't doing this as, you know, a cooperative effort. They still don't understand that they must comply with the requirements of 1441 or they're going to face military action.
And therefore, it is very prudent of the United States and other nations to begin deploying armed forces to the region. Now, how long they would stay and how long you can maintain a particular level, I will let my colleague Don Rumsfeld talk to that. But the President has made it clear that we will position ourselves to do whatever might be necessary in the absence of Saddam Hussein disarming under the terms of 1441.
MR. BLITZER: If you take a look at this proposal apparently out there, the Saudis, the Turks, others, that want to see some Iraqi generals overthrow Saddam Hussein or get Saddam Hussein to leave, to go into exile someplace.
Do either of these proposals, in your estimate, have a chance of succeeding?
SECRETARY POWELL: Well, I'm not familiar with all of these proposals that are being talked about in the press. I don't know how real any of them are. I think the Iraqi people would be a lot better off and this whole situation would be resolved if Saddam Hussein and all of those around him who think like him -- his sons and the top leadership of the regime -- would leave so that others could step forward who would understand the importance of disarming and how a better future awaits the Iraqi people if they disarmed and cooperated with the UN and used their oil wealth for the benefit of the people, as opposed to developing weapons of mass destruction to threaten their neighbors and to threaten the world.
And so if that were to happen, I think that would be just fine, from my standpoint. But I don't know how much merit there is to these various so-called proposals.
MR. BLITZER: Are you open to supporting a UN Security Council resolution that would give amnesty to these generals, these military officers, if they were to rise up against Saddam Hussein?
SECRETARY POWELL: Well, I would certainly consider it. I can't say in the abstract whether or not we would support such a resolution or not. If this happens or there is a possibility of it happening, I'd be more than willing to talk to my colleagues in the UN about it. But I'm not going to say today in a hypothetical sense what we might or might not do.
MR. BLITZER: Five years ago, you were on his program, the first year that I was hosting this program, and we spoke about Iraq. You were then in the private sector. I want you to listen to what you said:
"Perhaps we should communicate to the Iraqis that we're not going to get into this "Perils of Pauline" exercise every few months. Once you have denied us access to a particular facility, we're going to put that on the target list and take it out at a time of our choosing, and not have to create large armadas every four months to impose our will."
MR. BLITZER: That was a little younger Colin Powell, five years ago, in April 1998. But those words probably still ring true today.
SECRETARY POWELL: Well, they tried it with Desert Fox, I think later that year, and it didn't persuade the Iraqis to disarm. And so a policy was adopted at the end of the Clinton Administration and continued under this administration, toward the end of the Clinton Administration, that said regime change seems to be the only thing these people understand.
And so, once again, they are being given a last chance by the United Nations, under 1441, to disarm, change the nature of this regime, disarm, participate in the disarmament, cooperate with your disarmament, come forward, be honest. You say you don't have them? Then let's establish the facts that you don't have. But we think you do have them. And if that is not the solution you choose, then it is not going to be pinpricks; it's going to be a military operation that will remove the regime.
MR. BLITZER: Like me, you lived through the anti-war demonstrations during Vietnam. Yesterday, a big demonstration here in Washington, elsewhere around the country. How concerned are you that this anti-war movement seems to be growing across the United States?
SECRETARY POWELL: Well, people are free to express their concerns and there's always a great deal of anxiety when it looks like military action may be coming. But I think most American people understand that if we have to undertake military action, it will be for good reason, and that is to disarm a regime that is threatening its neighbors and threatening the United States, and they would support the President if it becomes necessary to undertake military action.
MR. BLITZER: Just ahead, more of my interview with the Secretary of State. I'll ask him his thoughts on President Bush's position on affirmative action. We'll also talk about the situation involving North Korea.
First, we've welcomed you, our Late Edition viewers, from many places around the world over the past five years. Take a look.
(Programming break.)
MR. BLITZER: Welcome back to our special Fifth Anniversary of Late Edition. Now back to my interview with the Secretary of State, Colin Powell.
The New York Times, in an editorial today, writes this: "The Bush Administration's radically different responses to weapons threats from Iraq and North Korea have confused the American people. Worse, they risk sending other rogue states the perverse message that the way to receive lenient treatment from Washington is to develop nuclear weapons."
SECRETARY POWELL: Well, I think that's an incorrect assessment. We don't have a cookie-cutter policy for every situation. Iraq -- we have tried to solve that problem diplomatically for 12 years.
In the case of North Korea, we all had believed that the problem had been dealt with with the Agreed Framework of 1994 that, at least for eight years, capped what was happening at the facilities at Yongbyon. But we discovered earlier last year that those activities may have been capped at Yongbyon, but the North Koreans had started another nuclear weapons development program having to do with enriched uranium.
And this administration did not ignore those facts, did not walk away from them. We presented those facts to the North Koreans. We said we know what you're doing. Now, we want to have a better relationship with you. We believe there are ways we can help your starving population, your country without electricity, your country with a failed economy. We have a bold approach, but you've got to stop this kind of activity.
And what did they do? They acknowledged the existence of this program. And so we are now three months into this situation with North Korea. And the President still believes strongly that a diplomatic solution is possible, and we're working with our friends and allies to achieve a diplomatic solution, just as we were trying to do with Iraq for 12 years.
MR. BLITZER: Are you close?
SECRETARY POWELL: So there isn't inconsistency in the policy. It's, I think, silly to think that because you're doing -- you're adopting a certain set of policy tools in one place, you have to adopt them in another place in the same fashion.
I think we are seeing some progress with respect to the work we are doing with our friends in the region. This is an international problem. It's not just a problem between the United States and North Korea. It's between North Korea and its neighbors and the international community, the IAEA, the UN, as well as the United States. And we are working with all of those parties and I'll be in New York this afternoon at the UN speaking to my fellow foreign ministers on the Security Council.
MR. BLITZER: On this issue?
SECRETARY POWELL: Yes.
MR. BLITZER: Whether to bring it before the Security Council?
SECRETARY POWELL: We'll be discussing it. Right now, it is not -- it is being considered by the IAEA, and I hope that the Board of Governors will meet in the not too distant future in Vienna and, from that meeting, make a referral of the matter to the Security Council.
MR. BLITZER: The Pulitzer Prize-winning investigative journalist Seymour Hersch writes a new article in The New Yorker just coming out, and he writes this:
"One American intelligence official who has attended recent White House meetings cautioned against relying on the day-to-day administration statements that emphasize a quick settlement of the dispute. The public talk of compromise is being matched by much private talk of high-level vindication. `Bush and Cheney want the guy's head,' Kim Jong-il's, 'on a platter. Don't be distracted by all this talk about negotiations. There will be negotiations, but they have a plan and they are going to get this guy after Iraq. He's their version of Hitler.'"
SECRETARY POWELL: I have no idea what Mr. Hersch is talking about. I've been in every meeting with the President since this began to unfold, since the beginning of the administration, and the President has made it clear he wants this solved diplomatically. I refer you to the President's speech in South Korea last February where he spoke about a better future for the peninsula, where he spoke to the North and said we want to help, we're helping you with food, and we want to see the light that exists in the South extend to the North. And so I have been in no conversation that reflects that kind of judgment.
MR. BLITZER: We have only a minute left, but let me ask you about affirmative action, an issue the President raised this week in opposing the University of Michigan's policies on affirmative action. This is what you said at the Republican convention in 2000. Listen to this:
"We must understand the cynicism that exists in the black community, the kind of cynicism that is created when, for example, some in our party miss no opportunity to roundly and loudly condemn affirmative action that helped a few thousand black kids get an education, but you hardly hear a whimper when it's affirmative action for lobbyists who load our federal tax code with preferences for special interest. It doesn't work."
MR. BLITZER: Did the President ask for your opinion on affirmative action before he went public this week?
SECRETARY POWELL: The President and I have spoken about affirmative action on a number of occasions, and particularly about the time of my speech to the convention. He was not surprised by my speech. He is quite familiar with my views on affirmative action. And we had a conversation about the Michigan case just about the time he was deciding it.
I think what the President has done in this case is to leave open the possibility for the court to make a judgment as to how race can or can not be used, and he restricted the brief that he submitted, that the government submitted, to the merits of the Michigan case. And I think reasonable people can differ over that case. The President made a judgment that he felt that the program followed by the University of Michigan was unconstitutional, and therefore he felt he had an obligation to present that point of view to the court.
And it is now up to the court to make a judgment as to whether that kind of affirmative action program at the University of Michigan is acceptable or not. And we will see what the court believes. I am, as you know, a strong proponent of affirmative action. I wish it was possible for everything to be race-neutral in this country, but I'm afraid we are not yet at that point where things are race-neutral.
MR. BLITZER: So you still believe that race should be a factor, one of many factors, in accepting young kids to college?
SECRETARY POWELL: Yes, I think -- I most certainly do. I believe race should be a factor, among many other factors, in determining the makeup of a student body of a university. A public university, a university, exists to educate the public, and if there is any segment of the public that is not adequately represented in the university, is the university doing its chartered job for the public?
So, in the case of Michigan, they were trying to get more minorities into the university and into the law school. They were also trying to get more students from the upper peninsula of Michigan to make the university more representative.
Each university goes about this in a different way. President Bush, when he faced this issue as Governor Bush and found that he had to change the policies for the University of Texas system, put in place, or the legislature put in place, with his support, a 10 percent rule that said that the top 10 percent of all high school graduating classes in Texas were eligible to go to the public universities of Texas. That was another way to get at it. President Bush calls it "affirmative access."
One thing I'm absolutely sure is that President Bush is committed to diversity in education. And he has said so. He and I have talked about it on many occasions. It's just that he found that the University of Michigan case did not meet what he believed was a constitutional test.
MR. BLITZER: Ten seconds. Do you still think the University of Michigan has the stronger case, as you suggested two years ago?
SECRETARY POWELL: Several years ago when I looked at it, I thought the University of Michigan had a strong case, and now it is before the Supreme Court to make a decision.
MR. BLITZER: All right. Mr. Secretary, thanks very much. Good luck to you.
SECRETARY POWELL: Thank you.

"Knowing the history of each individual residents provides us with the means for more individualized care."
Heritage Health - Minonk, previously known as the "Lida Home", is a convenient eldercare option located in the quiet, bedroom community of Minonk, just minutes outside of the cities of Bloomington and Peoria. As a Heritage facility, Heritage Health- Minonk upholds the tradition of providing quality nursing home care for seniors.
"Offering services from day care to long-term permanent placement, Minonk's focus is to please residents and their families by meeting their needs in a professional but compassionate, small-town setting," says Administrator Kim Seaman. "Knowing the history of each individual residents provides us with the means for more individualized care."
The families of our residents play a very important role at Heritage Health - Minonk. In some respects, they are our "care partners" and are strongly encouraged to participate in their loved one's plan of care and individuals goals. In fact, some of our residents have previously had other roles at our facility - as a volunteer or a family member of another resident under our care. We believe this speaks volumes about the quality of our care because some of our residents are not new faces.
Unique to our property, we have duplexes available to seniors. We are also involved in the community. Monday through Friday, Heritage Heart meals are offered to seniors in the community.
We are also proud to offer Shelter Care at Heritage Health - Minonk. Shelter Care is a healthcare living option for seniors that allows them to live in a small community of other seniors who also enjoy a more independent lifestyle but have the security of knowing that if they should need additional assistance, the resources are nearby. Nurses are available to help in emergencies, and assistance with daily living tasks is available.
We now offer wireless internet service for guest and visitor use.

Now that Billy Idol is spinning on all of our brain turntables, (you're welcome) I will bring you today's PoeWar writing prompt. "Write an interview with yourself. Do it in the style of an appropriate (or inappropriate) publication such as Time, People, Rolling Stone, Politico, Cosmopolitan, Seventeen or Maxim." You saw that, right? The post told me to be inappropriate, and I am never one to turn down an opportunity to be inappropriate. To make this interview less confusing to read, the version of me asking the questions will be known as Oprah, and the version answering the questions will be known as Laney. Let us begin.
Oprah: Laney, thank you for being here today.
Laney: Thank you for having me, Oprah, you have a lovely home!
Oprah: Thanks, do you want it?
Laney: Why yes. Yes I do.*
*Don't ask too many questions in these situations, just go with it.
Oprah: Then it's yours. I was going to level it and build a Starbucks, but I'd rather you have it.
Laney: Thank-
Oprah: Enough property acquisition chit chat, let's get down to business. Since the prompt has encouraged us to be inappropriate, let's just dive into the inappropriate topic of virginity, specifically the losing thereof. You briefly touched on this topic in an earlier post on this blog.
Laney: Yes, let's talk about that, but please let's not call it inappropriate. See, I was raised around some strict religious fanatics who taught me that sexuality should neither be discussed nor acknowledged without a generous helping of shame, and that hell's waiting room was full of people who had sex before they were married. As I entered and left puberty these values held less and less relevance to the reality in which I lived. I had a lot of damaged roots to untangle from that belief system before I could even start figuring out how I actually felt about sex, or hell, or the tenuous relation between the two. So for the sake of detaching the shame from sex, let's talk about sex without adjectives.
Oprah: That is fair, and also a good point. Why do you think so many people traditionally attach so much shame to sex?
Laney: There are a lot of contributing factors, I think, and most of them seem to be fear based. My biggest influence was organized religion's fantastic misinterpretations and misapplications of the Bible. Generally speaking, there are also fear based government policies against different types of sexuality, failures of public school sex-ed programs to relate to kids without fear, and subliminal feelings of inadequacy induced by air-brushed magazine covers, romantic comedies, and almost everyone on television. It feels like we have forgotten how to be real. Humans are sexual creatures, and denying that is denying part of ourselves. Yes, humans have done some very shameful embarrassing things, but applying shame to what we are on a very basic level seems to cause way more damage than anything else.
Oprah: So let's talk about how your early fear- or denial-based sexual development led you to losing your virginity. How old were you? 18?
Laney: I was 26, Oprah, and thank you for backhandedly pointing that out. I refuse to accept any shame, though, for being as old and inexperienced as I was. In my teens, when many pubescents are exploring their chemically driven urges with each other, I was simply fighting to survive. The hormones were wreaking havoc on my diabetes and literally trying to kill me. Nowhere in my consciousness was I able to explore dating/relationships/sexuality in any functional ways. Incidentally, a large part of my survival strategy involved me faking my way through new or uncomfortable situations. I was in theater in high school, so I knew how to portray confidence where really there was none. I learned just how many metaphorical doors can open for you if you simply act like you know what you're doing. That's how I kept people from messing with me in the high school halls and after school, that's how I got every job I've ever had, and that's how I learned most things I know about the world. Attitude is everything.
I approached dating and relationships the same way, thinking that if I acted like someone who had dated before, and someone who wasn't completely terrified of male attention, I would be okay. This worked for a lot of first dates but not much more than that. Turns out things can't go very far between two people when one of them can't actually back up anything they say. A peculiar phenomenon, that one. Even when I made it to a second date I floundered for lack of any information to draw on for what the hell I was supposed to do next. This was way beyond insecurity, this was black hole panic. I kept wishing that someone would just spell it out for me- what was this was supposed to look like, was I having fun, did he just want to get in my pants and if so how did I know that, and what the hell was I supposed to do with my hands? I was running on empty. I barely had enough social experience to function, much less relationship experience to let someone get close to me. It didn't help that I am naturally terrible at flirting, often requiring witnesses to pull me aside and tell me when someone is flirting with me. My years of faking confidence had replaced important lessons I should have been learning along the way about discovering myself and what I want.
Oprah: You seem to have a pretty clear summary of your past self. Have you spent a lot of time reflecting on it, or is it just the 20/20 hindsight vision?
Laney: A little of both, probably. But when your psychological/physical/emotional/sexual issues are as tangled together as mine were, you can't get them straightened out until you start to understand the systems that caused them to muddle together in the first place.
Oprah: That was said beautifully. I wish I had thought of it first. Let's not forget that we are still waiting for you to tell us how you lost your virginity. I have to say, from the way you're describing it, it's not looking hopeful for your love life.
Laney: As much as I'm loving these little jabs from you, I am getting to that part of the story. I made my way through my early 20s dating life with much trepidation, but I was determined to figure this system out. The more time went by, though, the more imposing this virginity thing became to me. I was realizing that no one I knew was interested in waiting until marriage to have sex, and that I wasn't even interested in waiting. I still see it as a terribly inefficient plan. But my 26 year old self who didn't know anything about sex wasn't in a close enough relationship to share this with anyone. Convinced that virginity was not as big of a deal as I had been led to believe, my slightly mangled sexual identity and I decided I need to put our acting skills to work again. We would become someone interested in casual sex so we could get this virginity shit over with and start learning something.
I was living in a new apartment complex with my Boston terrier and I had just gotten a promotion at work. I could relax my surviving muscles just a little bit more. One day I was outside in the courtyard playing fetch with the terrier, when a handsome stranger walked up the sidewalk. The terrier started following him up the stairs to his apartment, suddenly acting like she had known him all her life. I was horrified at her manners and I called for her to come back. She looked over her shoulder at me, but kept walking with him as if she was saying, "I pick this one. Try him." He noticed my dog forcing herself into his life and bent down to play with her. We began talking and soon discovered that we lived next door to each other. We started talking more and spending time together and arguing about music together, which led to one particularly heated argument about the meaning of a certain Foo Fighters song that I still can't listen to, which led to him cutting me off in mid sentence by kissing me intensely as his pet chihuahua peed on the shoe I was still wearing.
First kiss, check. That one's now off the table. Well the kiss led to other things, which led to him asking me into his bedroom, which led to me panicking and going home without saying anything. The next day there was a knock on my front door. When I answered it, he didn't say anything, just grabbed me and kissed me again. And that led to the part of the movie they cut out for the television audience. Then it was over. I was in pain, I felt like I was going to throw up, and I needed to shower immediately. He was beside me on the bed looking happy and I shoved him, saying "Fuck you!" and went home. I showered and thought about how I had finally gotten that over with. After all the anxiety and fear and misapplied symbolism…and then, oh shit, the feelings started happening. I felt I had just betrayed myself in the worst way. The goddamn feelings overtook me for a while, and I had to muddle through them the best I could.
My neighbor surprised me by still wanting to hang out with me after that. I did but I didn't know why. I didn't know what I was supposed to do or say now. Were we together? Did he feel anything? What did he think that was about? Oh, right, I was acting like a casual sex haver. I hung out with him until the feelings ran their course and I realized that I felt nothing for him. That was fine because he was also seeing 2 other girls he never mentioned. Eventually I was able to regain my self-respect and cut him out of my life for a few months before dumping all of the self-respect out on a different neighbor I slept with on a whim. He never talked to me after that, which was just as well. It's not something I'm proud of, and the only technical skills I gained from either experience were about furious, 45 second long intercourse. Not helpful, but hey, at least I wasn't a virgin. That was behind me, and I could go forward in my life with my lessons learned and one less big blurry cloud following me around.
Oprah: I'm pretty sure the first time for most people is terrible. Or at the very least it is awkward and confusing, especially if you're female.
Laney: Wow, that sounded like support. I appreciate that, Oprah, thanks. And I agree. The first time doing anything is awkward, and more so if clothing is removed.
Oprah: You seem like a happy, well adjusted woman now. I hope that means that you have been able to replace the so-called blurry cloud sexual experience with positive ones?
Laney: Oh yes, and I'm actually quite fond of positive sexual experiences. You know, this is the third time I've written about my first experience, but the first time I've written it knowing an audience will read it.
Oprah: Well I'm sure they will enjoy reading about it. It might cause them to think about losing their own experiences. Maybe they would even feel compelled to share their experiences with you, or at least find some validation like you have, that having sex for the first time is what it is. It isn't good or bad, it's just a first attempt at something that gets better with practice.
Laney: So we're saying that everyone should go practice having sex right now? I don't want to picture any of that. I'll just tell readers that if they want to talk about their first time, I will listen.
Oprah: Sounds good. Now, do you want my people to help you move your stuff into my house?

Heartbroken Mum Of Andre Aderemi Begs Witnesses To Come Forward: "Nobody Should Die The Way He Did", She Laments
Ms Yemi Hughes, the devastated mother of a 19-year-old Nigerian teenager Andre Aderemi who was stabbed to death in Croydon, London has begged for any witnesses to come forward so the family can get "closure" on the tragic incident.
Andre Aderemi was killed in the Monks Hill estate in South Croydon on Tuesday, August 16. He was stabbed multiple times after being pursued by three armed youths carrying weapons.
The teenager had moved away from the area but his mother Yemi Hughes dropped him off to see a friend at about 7.30pm that fateful day - just 10 minutes before he was stabbed. Ms Hughes said:
"I never thought this would be the last time that I saw him. I received a call to beg me to come as he was screaming for me but by the time I arrived the paramedics were fighting to save his life. I never got to see him alive again, to tell him how much I love him, to see his infectious smile, to cradle my baby in my arms and tell him that I would fix and make everything better," she said.
"I am begging for witnesses to come forward and give their accounts so that myself and Andre's little brothers can get some closure and justice for my son's murder. Nobody should die the way that he did and I am devastated not only by the loss of Andre but also by the manner in which he died. Our lives will never be the same again, so please if you know anything, no matter how small you think it is, can you pass it onto police."
Four persons have been arrested in connection with the murder. Investigators believe that a number of suspects may have sped off in a car after the stabbing. Detective Chief Inspector Sam Price said:
"Did you witness the incident last Tuesday or see a white vehicle on the estate that night? Did you see any other vehicles that may have been involved? Whilst enquiries are ongoing, we believe a number of people possibly fled the scene in a vehicle following the attack. Were any other individuals involved whom police are not already aware of? I am keen to speak with anyone who saw what happened."
Ali Zahawy, 18, appeared at Croydon Magistrates' Court on yesterday, while Jamall Longergan, ofThornton Heath, Fabio Cela, of Croydon, and Rodney Mukasa, of Croydon, all aged 19, will stand trial at the Old Bailey in February charged with his murder.

Bhintuna International Brings Ani Choying "The Buddhist Rock star Nun" to USA on a Unity & Hope Tour from June 3 - June 25, and Will Help Support Many of Her Charitable Projects in Nepal.
Jun 09, 2017, 08:40 ET
WASHINGTON, June 9, 2017 /PRNewswire/ -- ANI CHOYING DROLMA is embarking on a tour- UNITY & HOPE TOUR 2017 from June 3 - June 25, 2017. She will be performing live concert in six cities- Los Angeles, San Francisco, Seattle, Portland, Washington DC & Boston. She will be accompanied by her band, which includes, Nhyoo Bajracharya, a renowned music composer from Nepal, Gopal Rasili, music arranger and guitarist and Raman Maharjan renowned percussionist.
Ani Choying Drolma is a Nepalese Buddhist nun and musician from the Nagi Gompa nunnery in Nepal. She is known in Nepal and throughout the world for bringing many Tibetan Buddhist chants and feast songs to mainstream audiences. She is the UNICEF Goodwill Ambassador to Nepal.
The Buddhist Rock star Nun - Ani Choying was born on June 4, 1971, in Kathmandu, Nepal, to Tibetan exiles. She entered monastic life as a means of escape from her physically abusive father, and she was accepted into the Nagi Gompa nunnery at the age of 13. In 1994, guitarist Steve Tibbett's visited the nunnery and eventually recorded much of the Tibetan music with Ani Choying on two albums. The recordings, titled Chö and Selwa, were released to critical acclaim. Tibbetts and Ani Choying embarked on small performance tours, which included shows at several historical Tibetan monasteries.
Her philanthropic work includes Arya Tara School, which was opened in 2000. Arya Tara School aims to help young nuns bring their compassion into fruition, actively, effectively, skillfully and meaningfully.
She supports all her charitable work from the income through her musical endeavors. In 1997, Ani began performing and recording Cho for audiences around the world, connecting Westerners to Tibetan culture and music.
"A singer who sings for a cause"— Though she sings professionally, her earnings go towards charity and social work. That's commendable.
Her tour will not only support all the philanthropic projects Ani Choying is taking care of, but also, will help raise funds for different organizations in local areas to build Hindu & Buddhist temples.

Philosophy Lexicon of Arguments
|Criteria: do not follow from a definition but must be developed. The criteria for the application of a concept to an object are more concerned with language practice in a community. E.g. the definition of truth does not provide a criterion for which sentences are true._____________Annotation: The above characterizations of concepts are neither definitions nor exhausting presentations of problems related to them. Instead, they are intended to give a short introduction to the contributions below. – Lexicon of Arguments.

Hypotheses/Criterion/Duhem: Certain fundamental hypotheses cannot be refuted by any experiment because they form definitions in reality, and certain expressions used by the physicist only receive meaning through them.
E.g. Free fall cannot be refuted (like Putnam's robot cats) When a heavy body falls free, its acceleration is constant. This cannot be disproved in the experiment because it forms the definition of what one understands under free fall!
Le Roy: "Laws are not verifiable if they are taken strictly, because they themselves constitute the criterion."
Duhem: the words "free fall of a heavy body" now have a twofold meaning: for those who do not know the theories, they have a real meaning, for the physicist they have a symbolic meaning.
Duhem: the theory would not have fulfilled its task if the second meaning was not the expression of the first. Only that the symbolic sense does not have the accuracy of the real and concrete case we observe._____________Explanation of symbols: Roman numerals indicate the source, arabic numerals indicate the page number.

Janelle Monae is apparently on the radar for the new big screen take on Charlie's Angels…
Plans are still afoot at Sony Pictures for a big screen remake/reboot of Charlie's Angels, and there have been one or two developments to tell you about.
It's been known for some time that Elizabeth Banks was set to direct the movie, her second feature behind the camera following Pitch Perfect 2. But now we learn that the film is zeroing in on Janelle Monae to take one of the lead roles in the movie. Monae had a sizeable hit recently with the excellent Hidden Figures, and is reported to be at the top of the wishlist for the project, although there are no signs that formal discussions have begun as of yet.
Furthermore, the script for the movie is being rewritten by Carlo Bernard and Doug Miro, the pair who created the TV show Narcos. They're picking up writing duties from Beauty & The Beast remake scribe Evan Spiliotopoulos, who worked on the previous draft.
Finally, Sony is said to be targeting a release date of June 7th 2019 for the movie. Again, this hasn't yet been officially announced.
More on the new Charlie's Angels as we hear it…
