John Cena - Basic Thugonomics - WWE
"So... you think you're untouchable?"

This is ba-basic thugomoics
Word life! {*scratching*}
"I'm untouchable, but I'm forcin you to feel me" - Esoteric
Word life! This is bas-{*scratch*}
Basic thugo-{*scratch*}-thugo-{*scratch*}-thugonomics
Word life! {*scratching*}
"I'm untouchable, but I'm forcin you to feel me" - Esoteric
[Verse One: John Cena]
Whether fightin, or spittin, my discipline is unforgiven
Got you backin up, in a defensive position
An ass-kickin anthem, heavyweight or bantam
Holdin camps for ransom, the microphone phantom
Teams hit the floor, this the new fight joint
Like a broken needle kid, you missin the point!
We dominate your conference with offense that's no nonsense
My theme song hits, get your reinforcements!
We strike quick with hard kicks, duckin ice picks
Bare-knuckle men through fight pits, beat you lifeless
Never survive this! Get forget like Alzheimer's
Two-face rappers, walk away with four shiners
The raw rhymer, turnin legends to old-timers
My incisor's like a viper, bitin through your one-liners!
New Deadman Inc. - and we about to make you famous
Takin over Earth and still kickin in Uranus!
[Verse Two: uncredited guest]
You ain't advanced enough to process potential phonetical concepts
The +Objects+ are +Foreign+, like blot tests
Sponsored sex, a complex, regardless of your finesse
or your fitness, it's the condition of business
Your lame vision of a underground, physical image
You're underneath to undermine your whole, typical image
With the precision of percentages, and the collision of sedatives
Poetry, beats, and mics - we untouchable
like righteous sl_ts with no crevices
Streets unite, we rock right over dumber beats
Yo' cats couldn't come this hot {?} in the summer heat
Forget two takes, kill y'all birds the first time
Yo' best {sh_t} ain't, worthy of my filler or worst rhymes
I'm better than nice, check the veteran stripes
Leave you beside yourself with fear, I kill you, and bury you twice
Despite the cover of night, trackin your flight
Like guerilla warfare, where the grass is dense
Approachin me is a quick way to get referred to in the past tense
Dead that! When the light to mic is on
The crowd is dead like the intermission when you on the Titantron

Servo press control automatically saves up to 10 stages of upper, lower slide movement limits per cycle
Wintriss Controls has introduced a new version of its SmartPAC 2 servo press automation control. It uses a linear sensor to monitor the slide position and can "learn" and automatically save the upper and lower limits for up to 10 stages of slide movement per cycle.
The control allows users to select one of three slide motion tracking curves for each job: sinusoidal, which simulates the crankshaft motion of a part-revolution mechanical power press; proportional, which approximates the motion of a hydraulic press, with each timing adjustment increment equal throughout the upstroke and downstroke; and asymmetrical, with curves that are proportional and feature high-resolution areas near the bottom and reduced resolution through the top of the stroke.

Harry Reid had two reasons for voting no. First of all, his constituents tend to be pro-gun. However as a point of parliamentary procedure, he needed to vote on the winning side so that he can move to bring it up again.

once again this administration marches former Congresswoman Gabby Giffords and puts her front and center when the Pres goes on national TV to admonish the Senators that voted against the legislation..I dont know if I am more disgusted with the admin for using and exploiting her or her husband for allowing her to be used like a stage prop for their anti gun debate...its the James Brady scenario all over again..and then they release a statement saying she is furious over the bill not passing, puhleeze...dont insult our intelligence by using someone to try and guilt the public because you didnt get your way on legislation
Bon, I know you aren't surprised that Obama would stoop so low? Being "presidential" has never been a concern of his from what I can see. He loses a round in the debate, then calls the other side liars. This is an American president? We have sunk to new lows in such a short time.

and then for a change of pace I watch CNN because they have better coverage of the explosion in TX....and lo and behold they run the press conference where this time he is shown hugging the family members from Newton Conn while they again are used to further a political agenda....
Shameful...and the media plays along and shows what they want to the American public...its like lets bludgeon them with this and maybe we can drum up added support...See ya at the polls in 2014...
This guy is just not up to the job.
No one has ever said NO to him in his life.
He was clearly angry.
But why?
On behalf of all the children that would be saved?

Westminster champ to appear, for one night only, in 'Mystery of Edwin Drood.'
A dog's life can be a pretty glamorous one, at least if you're Banana Joe, the adorable affenpinscher who just became the first of his breed to win "Best In Show" at the Westminster Kennel Dog Club Show.
Fresh off the paws of that victory, Joe is set to make his Broadway debut tonight in the Roundabout Theatre Company's revival of The Mystery of Edwin Drood as a pooch who appears with the title character, played by Stephanie J. Block, in Act Two. The canine role is normally played by Block's own four-legged companion, a five-year-old Maltese Yorkie mix named Macaco, who released a statement (through a human rep, presumably) congratulating the new star.
"I am so happy for the toy group of dogs to be represented by Banana Joe," Macaco noted generously. "His performance last night was spectacular. I'm thrilled he will have an opportunity to make his Broadway debut with my owner and leading lady Stephanie J. Block. Meanwhile, I will take the evening to catch up on sleep and some long overdue emails."

At War With The Stars And Stripes
Army newspapers in World War were unofficial, informal, and more than the top brass could handle
April 1971 | Volume 22, Issue 3
In the summer of the year 1944, in a time of world war that is already history to my children's generation but remains vividly personal to mine as a moment of (in retrospect) astonishing simplicity and idealism, I found myself pointing a jeep in the direction of Pisa and Florence. On the so-called forgotten front in Italy, the Wehrmacht held the northern side of these cities; the line dividing their riflemen and ours was the river Arno.
The big show of the European war was being played out on the newly opened second front in Normandy. Along the French Riviera a diversionary side show became popularly known as the champagne war. Since the German 88's had not been informed that our Mediterranean theater had lessened in strategic importance, they were still to be reckoned with.
My windshield was down and covered with tarpaulin —any fool knew that glass reflected and could draw artillery fire or even a Luftwaffe fighter seeking a target of opportunity. I was driving along happily and singing to myself because all I needed was in that jeep: a Springfield rifle, a scrounged .25-caliber Italian automatic, two large cans of gasoline, one helmet (I wore the liner as a sunshade and the heavy steel pot, useful for shaving and washing, rattled around in the back), several days' worth of C and K rations, five gallons of water and two canteens of vino, and—most important of all—one portable typewriter.
That little Remington was the telltale of my military trade: I was an Army correspondent for Stars and Stripes , Mediterranean. Below the masthead of two enfolded flags its only mission was inscribed: "Daily Newspaper of the U.S. Armed Forces published Monday through Saturday for troops in Italy." Although we were occasionally enjoined to do so, we were not supposed to propagandize, publicize generals, or even inform and educate. Our job was to put out a newspaper as professionally as we could. Although armed, the soldier-correspondent was not necessarily expected to go looking for the enemy but instead to report about the soldiers, sailors, and airmen who did.
As I drove along the seacoast road, noticing the island of Elba at one point but without worrying about Napoleon or anyone else's war, the parting words of one of the correspondents came to mind. "Don't forget," he said, "your job is to get back stories, not get yourself killed." Two of my colleagues, Sergeants Gregor Duncan and Al Kohn, had died covering the front, and all of us were shaken up when what was an everyday occurrence in combat outfits struck home.
There were stories everywhere. My immediate problem was not to be distracted before reaching the Fifth Army's pyramidal tents. Ernie Pyle, whose influence as the most important single reporter at home and abroad of the Second World War cannot be exaggerated, had dignified the GI and the "little picture" in his syndicated newspaper column. I recalled having a drink with Pyle near the end of the Tunisian campaign in North Africa and could see part of his strength as an ingratiating reporter. He was skinny, wet, and shivering—a civilian version of the rifleman without rank, and therefore to be trusted.
None of us on Stars and Stripes deviated very much, or cared to, from his kind of reporting. Most of our seasoned front-line reporters, such as Jack Foisie, Ralph Martin, Stan Swinton, and Paul Green, roamed the field as Pyle did, covering not only battles but the "mess-kit repair battalions" (as the stray outfits were jokingly called) that supported the infantry. When I saw a sign that intrigued me—an outfit running a GI laundry somewhere near Leghorn—I stopped briefly, made a few notes for "flashes," chiselled some gasoline for my half-empty tank, and remembered to keep going.
After getting a tent assignment and a briefing at Fifth Army headquarters, which was located in a forest near a village somewhere between Pisa and Florence (whose name I cannot recall, though I vividly remember a long evening's talk with the parish priest about the art of the carillonneur and how his bell ringing regulated life and death), I decided to look in on something called an "armored group." It consisted of a self-sufficient group of tanks, artillery, engineers, and riflemen—a forerunner of the integrated, brigade-size units several chiefs of staff assumed would work for the brush-fire wars of the future.
The artillerymen appeared to be most active that afternoon. They were maintaining their franchise by firing harassing shells across the Arno. I took my names and hometown addresses, listened to the battery commander explain his "mission" in stiff Army lingo, and then accepted the captain's invitation to try out the armored group's mess for dinner. What happened next sticks with me as an example of the confusion that existed right in our own theater about Stars and Stripes correspondents. I immediately noticed that the two long tables were divided between field-grade officers (colonels, lieutenant colonels, and majors) and company-grade officers (captains and lieutenants). The colonel directed me to sit with him and motioned the captain to sit with his ignoble kind.

A few homeowners have recently asked me about gray powdery stuff showing up in small areas of their lawns. This slime mold on turf looks like burnt wood ashes that have been scattered in small spots on a lawn.
Those of you lucky enough to get a few sporadic showers or who have irrigated lawns may notice these slimy areas.
Hopefully, rain will arrive soon to relieve us of this extended drought. When it does, slime mold may pop up on more lawns.

Hi all,
I recently acquired one stax Lambda (normal bias) version in almost new condition. I made a quick dirty diy amp for it and it sounds **** amazing so I think I will put some money to get a decent amp for it.
I am looking for STAX amps with 6 pin output ( normal bias)
I am also looking for the STAX 6pin female connector for it in case I want to make an amp for it.

After losing by a few feet in Philadelphia four weeks earlier, the Giants won by a hand in Dallas Sunday.
If that sounds strange then you obviously missed one of the wackiest wins in Giants history as the G-Men recovered after blowing a 23-0 lead to beat the Cowboys, 29-24, when a potential winning Dallas touchdown was wiped out by a replay with 10 seconds to play.
When Dez Bryant somehow got free in the back of the endzone against a prevent defense by the Giants secondary he pulled in Tony Romo�s 37-yard pass. But when he landed, Bryant�s right hand hit the white line at the back of the endzone, prompting a video review that turned out in the Giants� favor when the apparent touchdown catch was nullified because the first part of Bryant�s body to hit the turf � his hand � landed out of bounds.
�Sometimes you do win games by an inch,� Giants co-owner John Mara would say later as he smiled while talking to reporters after Big Blue widened its lead in the NFC East to 2.5 games by improving its record to 4-0 in the new Cowboys Stadium.
�However we win, we don�t care,� said kicker Lawrence Tynes, who had a career-best five-field goal day, with his 43 and 37-yard kicks in the final quarter providing the Giants with another comeback win after they blew a 23-point first-half lead.
In Philadelphia, the Giants had also rallied in the fourth quarter and were in position to possibly win when they drove insidethe 25, only to have an offensive interference penalty push them back far enough that Tynes had to settle for a 54-yard field goal that was two feet short as the game ended.
�We scratched and scraped to pull this one out, and at the end we still had to have a little luck to pull it out,� said Chris Canty, the one-time Cowboy who played his second game for the Giants since returning from injury and was a big factor in the pass rush that helped create four interceptions of Romo.
�That�s how it is in this division. You can�t always describe it,� said coach Tom Coughlin, whose team is now 6-2 with four straight wins at the mid-point of the season. �Every time we come here (Dallas) it�s a nail-biter in some way, shape or form.�
The Giants had to sweat out the video review as the booth officials checked if any part of Bryant�s body came down out of bounds after the catch.
Giants safety Stevie Brown, who had two of the Giants� four interceptions and was attempting to defend Bryant on the big pass, said he never doubted the TD would be overturned.
�When I saw it live on the field, it looked like he came down out of bounds,� said Brown. �I was glad it was going to be able to be challenged, because I didn�t think he caught it in bounds.�
Neither did Coughlin.
�It was reported to me right away that that is what happened, the hand was out of bounds,� said the Giants coach. �It was just a matter of the official having the necessary time to make that call.�
What really puzzled Coughlin was how the Cowboys could get off three more passes � all incompletions by Romo � once the final 10 seconds were put back on the clock.
�I must say it�s been a long time since I�ve seen three plays in 10 seconds. That was an incredible thing that happened there. We thought it was over,� he said.
Apparently so did many of his players after they built their 23-0 lead only to find themselves trailing by a point after three quarter.
�I couldn�t quite believe they could get a touchdown in that situation,� said Eli Manning. �I kept looking for the replay to see if he caught the ball. They never showed a replay, so I was thinking it might be a good sign. Then I heard rumors on the sideline that he had a hand out. I was hoping it was true and we got the reversal. You knew the game would not be over until the clock said zero.
�I think we understand when we�re here we�ve got to play up and play big in any circumstance,� Manning said. �Just coming here brings the best out of us, and I think that shows every time we are here.�
�We let them come back in the game and we shouldn�t have,� said Osi Umenyiora said. �But at the end we win the game. That�s pretty much all I can say.�
�They (Cowboys) did some things to get back into the game and make it an instant classic,� said defensive end Justin Tuck.
A classic win the Giants and their fans might never forget.
* * *
Another play they will always remember was Jason Pierre-Paul�s first career interception. . .and the touchdown that followed.
�I was supposed to rush on that play,� JPP said. �I was kind of patient on my rush, and it looked like he (Romo) was going to throw it that way. So I just jumped up and caught the ball, and ran it for a touchdown.�
He became the first Giants defensive lineman to get an interception since Dec. 3, 2006, when Mathias Kiwanuka got one - also against Dallas.
JPP�s TD was the Giants� first defensive touchdown since Michael Boley recovered a fumble and returned it 65 yards against the Rams on Sept. 19, 2011. It was also Big Blue�s first interception run back for a touchdown since Dec. 21, 2009, when Terrell Thomas brought returned one 14 yards at Washington. The TD by a Giants defensive lineman came from Umenyiora who scored on a 37-yard fumble return against the Redskins on Sept. 13, 2009.

If the UFC wants to expand into the Asian market, they're going to need a few more Asian fighters. What better fighter than Chan Sung "The Korean Zombie" Jung (13-3) to suggest what fighter(s) should be joining his ranks. In a recent interview with Bloody Elbow, Jung spoke about his teammate Hyun Gyu "Ace" Lim:
"There are a lot of talented fighters in Korea right now. If I had to choose one guy, I'd say it's Hyun Gyu Lim. He's another member of Korean Top Team who fights at welterweight. He's really big and long, especially for a WW. He's huge and really skilled all around. He's probably the best all around fighter on our team, myself and Dongi Yang included! His fights are always exciting and he's had 4 straight 1st-round KOs. Hopefully he'll get the call from the UFC soon."
Another Korean Top Team teammate Dong Gi "The Ox" Yang also called Lim their "Secret Weapon":
"No, I don't think I'm a secret weapon," Yang admitted. "The real secret weapon at Korean Top Team is Hyun Gyu Lim. He's one of our welterweights and he's really incredible. He's huge for a welterweight and his all around game may be the best in all of Korean MMA right now. He recently beat Ross Ebanez at PXC in the Philippines and we're hoping that he'll be joining us in UFC soon."
Well, that call has been made and Lim has been signed to a four fight contract with the UFC. Holding a record of 10-3, 7 by the way of TKO/KO (five occurring in the first round), 2 by submission and riding a 5 fight win streak. He stands at 6'2" with an 82" reach (that's only two inches shorter than Jon Jones' who happens to have some of the longest arms in MMA history) and for a welterweight (170lbs.) those are some amazing assets. On top of that he is also the current Pacific Xtreme Combat (PXC) welterweight champion. The 27 year old Lim holds a lot of potential.
It is possible that he may be fighting in the UFC's Macau, China card. [MMA In Asia]

Safe Household Water Storage
this wiki
All types of Safe Household Water Storage must be used with water from known clean sources or with water having received prior efficacious treatment.
Examples of containers
- Solar Cookers International (SCI) has incorporated the pictured Safe Household Water Storage containers in their water pasteurization programs in Kenya. They are part of a Safe Water Package that consists of a CooKit solar cooker, a black pot, a Water Pasteurization Indicator (WAPI), and a Safe Household Water Storage container.[2] The containers are hand made out of clay by local artisans. Their design incorporates a small opening at the top to help prevent children from dipping cups and possibly dirty hands into the drinking water. There is a spigot at the bottom. "Unfortunately, the spigot is almost as expensive as the container itself."[3] In total each cost about 450 KSh (Kenya Shillings) or about US$6.00.[4] The unglazed clay container helps to keep the water naturally somewhat cool in dry climates because a very small amount of the water is absorbed by the container and then evaporates.
The United Nations' Millenium Declaration adopted by its General Assembly in September of 2000 set Millenium Development Goals (MDG) that have a purpose of significantly reducing the proportion of people in the world in extreme poverty. Resolution 19 specifically states with respect to drinking water, "To halve, by the year 2015...the proportion of the world's people who are unable to reach or to afford safe drinking water..." [5] In 2009 the United Nations published The Millennium Development Goals Report that states: "The world is well on its way to meeting the drinking water target, though some countries still face enormous challenges." [6] One way that the World Health Organization (WHO) has supported the safe drinking water goal is with its Household Water Treatment and Safe Storage (HWTS) program which targets people that are not connected to community water systems. Their website states that improved HWTS techniques can dramatically improve drinking water quality and reduce diarrhoeal diseases for those that must rely on unsafe water supplies. It reminds us that there are 1.6 million diarrhoeal deaths per year related to unsafe water, sanitation, and hygiene and that these are mostly of children under 5 years old.[7]

Halloween ---- weird to me ....
Ok.. took grandkids out for Halloween. When walking back to my house there was a kid standing there, so granddaughter went inside and came out with a bowl of candy for him to get some.
I could not tell due to the lighting where I was at, what the costume of the kid was.... and his father was standing nearby, so I asked him. He said he was "Bud Lightyear". Then he said , " I dressed up as one of the soldiers". I hadn't really looked at the guy, Ok ... -10 points for me. But when I really looked at him, he was in some 'greens' and had an AR15 on his shoulder and a gun on his hip, along with a knife sheath and knife in it, flashlight, etc. I could see that for one, all of them were for real. And when he turned a touch, I could see it was a real 1911 in the holster. No play toys. My radar was 'up ' a bit now. He seemed to get a touch nervous when he saw me eyeing the AR a bit, actually I was trying to figure out which one it was and was going to ask him some questions about it. He then got his son and left rather quickly. It's illegal to open carry a loaded gun in the town, but legal if they were unloaded. I wish they would make it legal to open carry a handgun, but it is what it is. I guess in my dreams, It never crossed my mind to carry an AR out on Halloween for trick or treating ... |

I want to get one of those 'jason' masks...pretty much horrify people by just standing there looking at them--you know the way his buddy does the same thing in the "Halloween" movies by John Carpenter---by the way, the "Halloween" mask was a CPT Kirk and/or william shatner(same thing) mask that they dug holes into(I was reading the history of the movie). **sorry, I get excited during the Holiday Season

Dress up for Halloween should not include real guns. I certainly understand if folks choose to carry while walking their kids around their neighborhood. I don't conceal carry when walking the streets with my kid for Halloween. That's just my choice - not telling other folks what to do.

My gawd but I must be older than I thought,,,
In 1958? I went trick or treating as a soldier and was elated to be allowed to carry my uncle's real life GI 1911 as part of my costume.
In 1968 I attended my girlfriends senior prom,,, It had a cowboy/cowgirl theme that year,,, I was wearing my Colt Frontier Scout,,, My girlfriend wore a Ruger (I think). Fully 1/2 of the kids at that dance wore real guns,,, The chaperones simply checked to ensure they weren't loaded. No one shot anyone else the entire night. I realize that times and attitudes have changed,,, But sometimes I think we are as bad as the anti-gun folk. ~sheesh!~ Aarond

I think I get a little paranoid on Halloween. It seems to me that's when all the weirdos come out so they don't have to hide it. Needless to say I had one on my hip (CC) and the 12 Ga on ready behind the door.
Anywhoo... I do not think using a real gun as part of a costume is a good idea. When I was a kid I had a costume one year that needed a gun. I just used my Dad's western style leather holster and belt. Realism takes a back seat to safety when it comes to costumes I feel. |

Ehh, I'm not a fan of mixing real firearms with "play time" or "pretend". I don't have a problem with toy guns at all, in fact I think that's what should be used at playtime, not a real firearm.
Just remember, when you pull the trigger, the bullets come out going very, very fast. So make sure to keep the weapon pointing away from you. |

Meanwhile, I'm going to have to log out for awhile so I can reread the Second Amendment. It'll probably take me awhile to find the part where it says it doesn't apply on Hallowe'en.

I was CC, but I never figured my AR as a necessity walking the neighborhood. LOL I could care less, but it caught me strange I guess...
I wouldn't take the chance of losing it to the Local PD in this town. Small town, and they are not all well versed in the laws..... and tend to make some of them up as they go along. |

I just don't see the risks inherent in halloween that would lead me to a much higher state of awareness and armed status.
yes, either a pistol or rifle is moved closer to the door, but that isn't necessarily because I'm afraid for myself. I'm worried about angry drunks, predators hunting children, domestic disputes, and so forth. I see the risk of trouble on halloween night as being barely higher than normal, and I freely admit that keeping a firearm close at hand smells like paranoia. I actually feel a little silly doing it. |

Real? Have you seen some Airsoft guns? Some have the real trademarks also...metal, heavy....orange tips could have been taken off or painted but if they were real - that is shear idiocy to have a kid walking around during Halloween and going to doors with real firearms.

I can usually tell the difference between Airsoft and real from about 5 feet away - even without the orange tip.

Okay, I have gone back over various sets of safety rules for handling guns. None of them rule out costume carry, Halloween, or theactrics.
I guess we need to inform all the re-enactors about how they can't be using real gear anymore as they definitely handle guns as part of costumery and theatrics. Quote:

So you saw Pusha T's video for "Can I Live" off his Fear of God mixtape two weeks ago. And while it definitely worked to complement the track, you were hoping that he would deliver something more cerebral. Well, if that's the case, then the visuals for "Open Your Eyes" are for you. The direction team of Orson Wells, made up of Shahan Jafri and Alex Germanotta, has filled the video with loads of imagery to help you keep up with Pusha's lyrical symbolism and storytelling. It's one of the better videos we have seen from him since he and Malice, who makes a cameo, began pursuing solo projects last year.

Play pickleball
The Tennis Center hosts open play pickleball sessions the following days and times:
Noon to 1 p.m. clinic for first-time players
1 to 2:30 p.m. beginners and players with impaired mobility
2:30 to 4 p.m. intermediate and advanced players
2 to 3 p.m. clinic
3 to 4:30 p.m. intermediate and advanced players
All sessions cost $6 a person and are at the Tennis Center at Steamboat Springs. Equipment is provided. Call 970-879-8400 to reserve a spot or 970-761-2047 for more information.
Steamboat Springs Two years ago pickleball wasn't even an afterthought of a sport in Steamboat Springs.
A tournament Sunday at the Tennis Center showed just how much that's changed. The sport is similar to tennis but played on a smaller court and with paddles and a whiffle ball. It's become the sport of choice for many in retirement communities in Florida and Arizona, and Sunday's turnout proved it's got a few fans in Steamboat Springs as well.
Six pickleball courts were squeezed Sunday onto two tennis courts inside the tennis bubble and about 30 Steamboat Springs residents showed up to try their hand at the sport, which for the vast majority is still a new addiction.
Pickleball entered the Steamboat consciousness through several streams. Tennis pro Carol Baily introduced some to the sport while working at the Tennis Center. Others were ensnared by Jay Readinger and his wife, Mary Lou Gallup, who have been major proponents of pickleball in Steamboat.
They helped organize Sunday's tournament, bringing together the Tennis Center, the Over the Hill Gang and Casey's Pond Senior Living community for sponsorship, support and prizes.
"It was very slow for a long time, but in the last two months it's picked up," Readinger said. "Now we're playing here, at the college, at Lowell Whiteman and at Howelsen. Almost every day of the week we're playing someplace.
"I'm ecstatic."
The pickleball movement is a city-wide affair. Supporters put together a proposal for the lodging tax accommodations funds, and while it wasn't selected in the end, there are signs of momentum. Readinger said pickleball lines may be included in a looming city plan to resurface the Howelsen Hill tennis courts.
Readinger also teaches a Colorado Mountain College pickleball course, which filled up and finishes its 15-week run Monday night.
Pickleball has been a welcome addition to the Tennis Center, according to facility director Jim Swiggart. Two years ago, when Readinger and Gallup began their local push, neither the Tennis Center nor the Old Town Hot Springs reported having noticed any interest in the sport. Now the Tennis Center has about 20 hours of court time per week dedicated to pickleballers, with drop-in sessions scheduled two days a week.
"We are putting down lines on the courts and making sure the players know they're welcome," Swiggart said.
The sport taxes participants differently than tennis. It doesn't require nearly as much running or as much power to get the light plastic ball over the net. Those differences have led to a different kind of clientele for Swiggart.
"I would guess 70 percent of the pickleball players are people who haven't played tennis or haven't been to the Tennis Center in a long time," he said. "It's brought a bunch of new people in and, from a business perspective, I'm delighted by that."
Sunday's players demonstrated the sport's wide appeal. Players in their 80s grinned wide and wagged fingers at opponents after dropping in winning shots while athletes in their 20s sweated out tight games on a court nearby.
A few had logged years playing pickleball. Many more had picked it up in the preceding months and weeks. And at least one player picked up a paddle for the first time Sunday.
"We were both tennis players, but this is totally different," said Arlene Zopf, who played Sunday with her husband, Michael.
Friends convinced the Zopfs to try the CMC class, but when the night of the first class came, the friends backed out and the Zopfs were left to go at it alone without knowing anything about the sport.
"Now we really, really love it," she said. "I have a shoulder problem. Michael has a knee problem. This is just a lot less stress on your body than tennis. It's a great sport and a great way to meet other people."
Jim Webster and Andy Ziegler won Sunday's tournament. Gary Boyer and Mike Stettler were second, and Jim Berry and Loretta Conway were third.
No matter how many of the players finished on the scoreboard, however, Sunday was yet more evidence that the gospel of pickleball is drawing a flock in Steamboat Springs.

HYDERABAD, Pakistan When Veero Kolhi made the asset declaration required of candidates for Pakistan's May elections, she listed the following items: two beds, five mattresses, cooking pots and a bank account with life savings of 2,800 rupees ($28).
While she may lack the fortune that is the customary entry ticket to Pakistani politics, Kolhi can make a claim that may resonate more powerfully with poor voters than the wearily familiar promises of her rivals.
For Kolhi embodies a new phenomenon on the campaign trail - she is the first contestant to have escaped the thrall of a feudal-style land owner who forced his workers to toil in conditions akin to modern-day slavery.
"The landlords are sucking our blood," Kolhi told Reuters at her one-room home of mud and bamboo on the outskirts of the southern city of Hyderabad.
"Their managers behave like pimps - they take our daughters and give them to the landlords."
To her supporters, Kolhi's stand embodies a wider hope that the elections - Pakistan's first transition between elected civilian governments - will be a step towards a more progressive future for a country plagued by Islamic militancy, frequent political gridlock and the worsening persecution of minorities.
To skeptics, the fact that Kolhi has no realistic chance of victory is merely further evidence that even the landmark May 11 vote will offer only a mirage of change to a millions-strong but largely invisible rural underclass.
Yet there is no doubt that hers is a remarkable journey.
A sturdy matriarch in her mid-50s who has 20 grandchildren, Kolhi -- a member of Pakistan's tiny Hindu minority -- is the ultimate outsider in an electoral landscape dominated by wealthy male candidates fluent in the art of back room deals.
Possessed of a ready, raucous laugh, but unable to write more than her name, Kolhi was once a "bonded laborer," the term used in Pakistan for an illegal but widely prevalent form of contemporary serfdom in which entire families toil for years to pay often spurious debts.
Since making her escape in the mid-1990s, Kolhi has lobbied the police and courts to release thousands of others from the pool of indebted workers in her native Sindh province, the vast majority of whom are fellow Hindus.
On April 5, Kolhi crossed a new threshold in her own odyssey when she stood on the steps of a colonial-era courthouse in Hyderabad and brandished a document officials had just issued, authorizing her to run for the provincial assembly.
With no rival party to back her, Kolhi's independent run may make barely a dent at the ballot box in Sindh, a stronghold of President Asif Ali Zardari's ruling Pakistan People's Party (PPP).
But her beat-the-odds bravado has lit a flame for those who adore her the most: families she has helped liberate from lives as vassals.
"Once I only drank black tea, but now I am free I can afford tea with milk," said Thakaro Bheel, who escaped from his landlord a decade ago and now lives in Azad Nagar, a community of former bonded laborers on the edge of Hyderabad. "These days I make my own decisions. All that is thanks to Veero."
Like millions of the landless, Kolhi's ordeal began a generation ago when drought struck her home in the Thar desert bordering India, forcing her parents to move to a lusher belt of Sindh in search of work harvesting sunflowers or chilies.
Kolhi was married as a teenager but her husband fell into debt and she was forced to work 10-hour days picking cotton, gripped by a fear that their landlord might choose a husband for Ganga, her daughter, who would soon be ten years old.
One night Kolhi crept past armed guards and walked barefoot to a village to seek help. Her husband was beaten as punishment for her escape, Kolhi said, but she managed to contact human rights activists who wrote to police on her behalf.
Officers were reluctant to confront the landlord but they relented after Kolhi staged a three-day hunger strike at their station. More than 40 people were freed.
"I was very scared, but I hoped that I could win freedom for myself and my family," said Kolhi. "That's why I kept on running."
Now Kolhi spends her days careering along dirt roads in a battered Suzuki minivan decorated with stickers of Ernesto "Che" Guevara, the Latin American revolutionary, on her quest for votes. Her only luxury: Gold Leaf, a brand of cigarette. Her only campaign equipment: an old megaphone.
While Kolhi clearly enjoys meeting supporters - greeting women by placing two palms on their bowed heads in a traditional gesture of protection - she has still only reached a fraction of her constituency's 133,000 voters.
The favorite remains Sharjeel Memon, an influential businessman and PPP stalwart. Memon was not available for comment.
Despite the struggle Kolhi faces, the fact she is able to run at all has emboldened campaigners for workers' rights in Sindh.
Even remote areas of the province have not been immune to the influence of a more assertive media and judiciary that have reshaped national politics during tumultuous years following a 1999 army coup and a transition to democracy in 2008.
"The landlords are afraid of court cases so they do not abuse and torture people as much as before," said Lalee Kolhi, another former bonded laborer turned activist, who is no relation to Veero Kolhi.
Yet in some areas, land owners can still exploit a symbiotic relationship with the bureaucracy, police and courts to deprive workers of rights and attempt to sway their votes.
Although Veero Kolhi works with a local organization that says it has helped rescue some 26,000 indebted workers in the last 12 years, several estimates put the total figure of bonded laborers in Pakistan at roughly eight million.
Not all landlords are tyrants, but the arrival last month of an extended family of 63 share-croppers at Azad Nagar, the village for freed workers, provided a glimpse of the timeworn tricks they use to ensure debts keep on growing.
Lakhi Bheel produced a scrap torn from an exercise book that declared he had accumulated obligations of 99,405 rupees after toiling for three years.
Bheel said he had decided to make a break for freedom after the land owner threatened to sell the family's daughters in return for bride prices.
"I didn't eat meat once in three years," Bheel said, adding that shotgun-toting guards had sometimes roughed up workers. "We had to pay half the salaries of the men who were beating us."
Kolhi's supporters say the only way to end the oppression in Sindh would be to give destitute workers their own plots of land. But as long as the feudal class retains political influence, talk of land reform remains taboo.
Undaunted, Kolhi -- bedecked in a garland of red roses and jasmine -- launched her shot at office with an ultimatum.
"First we will ask the landlords to obey the law, and if they refuse we will take them to court," she said, her voice rising with emotion. "We will continue our struggle until the last bonded laborer is freed."

PVC-coated tubes provide superior durability, and internal bladders provide an extra measure of strength and safety. Multiple air chamber are an added safety feature. Ergonomic carry handles ease moving the Lion to and from the water. Maximize your performance and load capacity with the AIRE Lion 16 cataraft. Please note: Frame is not included. Maximum frame length is 120 inches. |
I've had my 16' Lion for over a year now and have used it both unloaded and heavily loaded for multi-day trips. It is at its best when used for the long trips. This is a forgiving and manueverable boat. On a recent Owyhee trip I got to see just how forgiving when I visited the rocks at Nuisance. Heavily loaded and pushed then pinned up the first rock the water was still going below the low tube. Had this been a cat with smaller tubes it would have been a much worse situation. I liken this raft to a magic carpet for the way it smooths out the rapids. I likely will have to get a smaller raft just to get a little more excitement. The Lion is slower than say the 16' Jaguarundi and probably comparable to round rafts for speed when loaded, but with much better manueverability.
Dave Graff
Well, I researched both the Jaguarundi and the Lion prior to choosing the Lion. I have been a loyal AIRE catarafter for years now, owning at one time the AIRE Panther with its 4 tube low center of gravity design. I heard lots of buzz about how much of a pig the Lion would be for running moderate sized class III / IV water like the Rogue, Owyhee, and Hell's Canyon. Well maybe its just me and the loads I carry but the Lion tracks extremely well, is very manueverable and responsive when compared to 14 foot SB rafts and drafts mere inches of water with 1000+ lbs. I generally run solo or with one passenger, and this cat gets the job done week in and week out. Planning a trip down the Middle Fork Salmon in August so well see how it does in low boulder strewn water. My guess is it'll float high in the water and carry the bulk of the gear for our group with little or no issues. Haven't oared the Jag, but think for comparable load in excess of 750 lbs the Lion will maneuver as good as the Jag, plus I really like the ability to strap a long frame to is for gear storage as well as general feel. Who knows maybe Ill pick up a smaller playboat for shorter trips or where width is truly an issue. So far for the water I spend the bulk of my time on 7'6" wide hasn't caused any problems, tuck the oars and shoot through. I couldn't be happier with my purchase and commend the folks at AIRE for being a very customer driven energized group of folks.

They were hospitalized with minor injuries and will be fine. It is not yet known if the driver will face any charges.I think we now know what's the fastest rental car you can get your hands on.

And lately the HHS Mandate has been seen as a galvanizing moment by many, me among them, and only as a distraction by others. In the immortal words of Rodney King, "can't we all just get along?"

Google on Tuesday shipped Chrome 29, patching 25 vulnerabilities and rolling out under-the-hood changes the company said would offer more relevant suggestions when users typed in URLs or search strings.
The upgrade also sported a new option that restores the browser to near-factory defaults—think of it as a take-a-mulligan button—which can come in handy when mystery problems persist.
As usual, Google highlighted only a few changes in the newest Chrome.
The technology behind the "Omnibox," as Google insists on calling the combined search-address field, has been improved, the company said in a blog, and should result in "more timely and contextually relevant suggestions" appearing when users type in URLs or conduct a Web search or previously viewed sites.
Chrome 29's other trumpeted change was the reset option, found on the Settings screen.
"For those nostalgic for the new car smell—maybe you, too, got overzealous with fun extensions—we've added a new option to the Chrome settings page to let you restore it back to its original state," said Mark Pearson, a Chrome engineer, in the brief blog post.
Pearson added that some elements will not be affected by a reset, most importantly saved bookmarks, but also Web apps and custom visual themes that have been installed and applied.
Chrome was late to the reset party: Mozilla added the same option more than a year ago to Firefox 13. Like Chrome's, Firefox's reset retains some information, ranging from bookmarks to passwords.
Google also followed up on a previous promise and added its notification service to Chrome on OS X. The service lets developers of Chrome apps and add-ons display messages and alerts outside the browser window. Notifications debuted on Windows in Chrome 28 in early July. The Linux version remains without the feature, however.
On a Mac, Chrome notifications are not integrated with OS X Mountain Lion's Notification Center, but instead show up in a separate window.
Squashing bugs
Along with the new features and a slew of bug and stability fixes, Chrome 29 patched 25 security vulnerabilities.
Until July 30, Google had not revealed the number of patched flaws in each Chrome update. Prior to May, the company published what appeared to be a complete list—although minus an official count—but from late May though late July, it disclosed a subset of quashed bugs, those deemed "particularly interesting," or which called out researchers who reported issues or who had been awarded bounties.
Starting three weeks ago, Google began naming the number of fixed flaws, though it continued to provide information tidbits about only a handful.
Tuesday, for example, it listed just seven of the 25 patched vulnerabilities in its advisory. Five of those were rated "high," Google's second-most-serious threat ranking, and included the usual "use-after-free" vulnerabilities, a type of memory management bug.
Google paid four researchers a total of $5,174 in bounties, with more than half—$3,000—going to one bug finder, identified only as "cloudfuzzer."
So far this year, the Mountain View, Calif., company has awarded about $256,000 in bounties or hacking contest prizes.
Users can download Chrome 29 for Windows, OS X and Linux from Google's website. Active users can simply let the automatic updater retrieve the new version.
This story, "Do-over! Google gives Chrome a reset button" was originally published by Computerworld.


text: By: Raymond Ronamai Tuesday, August 28, 2007Everyone is aware of Abhishek Bachchans soft corner for Rani Mukherjee, and at one point of time, it looked like they would tie the knot. This relationship seems to have gone into Aishwarya Bachchans head. Abhishek and Aishwarya are married couple now but the insecurity still continues. Ash was reluctant to accompany hubby to the sets of his film but this time, she has made an exception. She accompanied hubby to the sets of Laaga Chunari Mein Daag in Switzerland. Ironically, Abhisheks ex-flame Rani Mukherjee plays the female lead role in this film. The buzz is that Aishwarya gave Rani Mukherjee a cold shoulder on the sets of the film. It is also said that Ash passed rude remarks about Rani besides staring at her. Rani has not spoken out yet on the incident. Laaga Chunari Mein Daag also features actors like Jaya Bachchan, Konkona Sen Sharma, Kunal Kapoor, Anupam Kher, Kirron Kher and Farida Jalal. Aditya Chopra produces it on Yash Raj Films banner and Pradeep Sarkar directs it with music composed by Shantanu Moitra. The makers of the film are planning to release it on October 12.

Individual results may vary from individual to individual.
Everyone suffering from Osteoporosis needs to understand that supplementation with Calcium and Progesterone injections aren't enough. You must stimulate the body to produce Progesterone and teach it how to guide the calcium into building healthy bones!
Research Fact 1:"An In vivo study evaluating the effects of a herbal extract on the progression of bone loss induced by estrogens deficiency showed the herb significantly increase bone mineral content, mechanical strength of the tibia, bone weight and density. These findings indicated that the isoflavones present in the test herb effectively reduced bone loss and could thus serve as an alternative remedy in osteoporosis." 1 *
Individual results may vary from individual to individual, as is seen in all clinical trials.
Osteoporosis gets worse each day that it is ignored!
Conventional treatments for Osteoporosis include Raloxifene, Calcitonin, Biophosphates and mineral supplements. These conventional treatments may cause several unwanted side-effects such as fever, chills, dizziness, trouble sleeping, unusual weight gain or loss amongst others. They merely treat Osteoporosis at a symptomatic level and do little to address the root cause of it. Women in menopause are given progesterone injections, however our Doctors feel this is only exacerbates the condition as women taking hormone replacement attenuations are more likely to further inhibit their natural progesterone production.
Only Biogetica Doctors have access to our unique line of groundbreaking, precedent setting, all natural products that include nutritional supplements, ancient ayurvedic herbs and homeopathic formulations.

Our Doctors Recommend:
Essentials Kit with Men's Osteo Formula
Osseoapatite Plus (Osteo Formula):
It comprises of Microcrystalline Hydroxyapatite (MCHC) and Lyophilized Bone Tissue Matrix. They supply nutrients to support bone integrity. MCHC is traditionally believed to support the structure and functions of the bones. **
Bone Liquescence:
Bone Liquescence is traditionally believed to provide potentized nutrients to support bone regeneration. It also provides bio-energetic information on the ideal configuration of bone-matrix, thereby stimulating optimal bone regeneration. **
Treatment options for Osteoporosis
Primary goal of treatment of osteoporosis is to reduce the risk of pathologic fractures.
Three mainstays of treatment are:
1) Weight-bearing exercises:
Weight-bearing exercises and movements are prescribed for osteoporosis. Exercise cannot replace bone mass that has already been lost, but it can strengthen the bones. Simple movements can bring flexibility and agility to the joints. Agility helps to maintain balance and prevent falls.
While resistance exercise (e.g. with light weights) are excellent to stimulate bone production, even light aerobic exercises (e.g. aerobics, jogging, walking) can help strengthen bones and prevent osteoporosis.
2) Nutritional supplementation:
Calcium supplementation is an important treatment. The daily recommended intake should be at least 1200 to 1500 mg per day. Obtaining this amount of calcium through natural sources is difficult, considering that it is equivalent to drinking 5 glasses of milk each day. Due to this, patients at risk of developing osteoporosis are advised to take an oral calcium supplement every day. This should be taken with Vitamin D (400-800 Units is recommended) to help increase its absorption. Also, caffeinated substances (e.g. coffee, soda, etc.) decrease calcium absorption, and should be avoided.
3) Medications:
Several different medications are used for treating osteoporosis. These include:
Bisphosphanates are a type of medication that help regulate calcium retention and prevent bone resorption.
Calcitonin is a naturally occurring hormone produced by the thyroid gland. It can be given in an injection or in the form of a nasal spray. It inhibits the function of osteoclasts - the cells that break down bone. Calcitonin has long since been known to benefit patients with osteoporosis, but the injections were difficult to administer and had unpleasant side-effects. The nasal spray has greatly improved the use of calcitonin, and it is much more commonly used today.
Raloxifene is a newer medication that has been developed to provide some of the same advantages of estrogen (HRT), without the potential side-effects. Raloxifene is a type of medication called a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator, or SERM. Estrogen Hormonal replacement therapy, or HRT, helps maintain, and even increase bone mass, after menopause. Multiple studies have shown the benefits of estrogen therapy as including a lowered risk of osteoporosis and fractured bones. HRT was shown to increase the risk of uterine cancer, but this risk is eliminated when the estrogen is combined with progesterone. Certain studies in some study populations show an increased risk of breast cancer with HRT. Patients on HRT have also shown a slightly increased risk of developing blood-clots and strokes.
Complementary Natural Care
Natural therapies supply the body with correct nutritional remedies in a natural form. These help optimize the hormone production and boost the natural regenerative processes of the bones. Natural minerals increase the strength of bones, thereby reducing the risk of fractures.
This manner of appealing to the balancing forces of the body to produce essential secretions, rather than supplying them externally, allows it to deal with Osteoporosis in a long run. The idea is to address the root causes for lasting relief.
Prevention of Osteoporosis
As discussed, there are several methods that can help slow down the otherwise rapid progression of osteoporosis. It is of utmost importance to remain active, even in the later years of life. Simple forms of exercise such as walking or aerobics help significantly, to maintain strong bones. Furthermore, adequate calcium intake and supplementation in times of higher need (most importantly pregnancy and lactation) will help even more. Estrogen replacement and other treatment medications should also be considered.
Managing Osteoporosis through yoga
Yoga helps in creating a harmony between the ovaries, adrenals, parathyroid, pituitary and pineal gland, thus ensuring that the body receives a steady supply of hormones for maintaining bone strength, general health and well-being.
Regular practice of weight-bearing hatha yoga postures offers women a safe and scientifically proven way to build bone-strength and avoid this debilitating disease. To build bone-mass with yoga and other exercises, they must be done consistently -- at least 30 minutes a day, five days a week.
NOTE: Testimonials claiming a cure or treatment or mentioning a particular ailment can no longer be associated with health products in the US of A. Hence, in compliance with the law, Biogetica is no longer able to show you most of the thousands of letters we have received from patients over the years. However we still encourage you to keep sending testimonials for a better day when these laws change and bring back freedom of Speech!

About Osteoporosis
Most patients with Osteoporosis are relatively asymptomatic until they develop a complicating fracture, which often occurs after minimal trauma. Fractures are most common in the hip, humerus, ribs and wrists.
Most common symptoms are pain in back, deformity of spine and loss of height. Pain usually results from collapse of vertebral bodies, especially in the lower dorsal and upper lumbar regions. It is typically acute in onset. Such episodes frequently occur after sudden bending, lifting or jumping movements, which may be trivial.
Some people may only have asymptomatic vertebral fractures.
Types of Osteoporosis
There are two main categories of Osteoporosis:
Type I Osteoporosis occurs only in post-menopausal women, and is due to estrogen deficiency.
Type II Osteoporosis occurs in both men and women, but, about twice as frequently in women. It occurs due to aging, and calcium deficiency.
Osteoporosis Causes
- Calcium and/or Vitamin D deficiency from malnutrition increases the risk of osteoporosis.
- Estrogen deficiency following menopause is correlated with rapid reduction in BMD (Bone Mass Density).
- Hormone deficiency states such as testosterone deficiency can lead to osteoporosis.
- Glucocorticoid or thyroxine excess states also lead to osteoporosis.
- In pregnant and lactating women, the rate of bone loss temporarily increases if the increased demands of calcium are not met by adequate intake.
- Other significant factors leading to the onset of osteoporosis include hypothyroidism, anticonvulsant medications, sedentary lifestyle, smoking, inadequate physical activity (weight bearing exercise), and family history.
- Osteoporosis is most commonly discovered either on routine examination, or following a pathologic fracture (a fracture due to weakened bone).
- Densiometry or DEXA scan is the most useful screening test to detect osteoporosis. While this test does require special equipment, it is safe. It exposes the patient to small amounts of radiation, and is useful in detecting early stages of osteoporosis.
- X-rays usually show a generalized loss of bone density.
- Laboratory studies are not very helpful in diagnosing osteoporosis, but they are helpful in showing evidence of conditions that can have symptoms similar to osteoporosis. Laboratory studies can show evidence of osteomalacia, kidney failure, parathyroid gland insufficiency, or other problems that may mimic osteoporosis and cause bone weakness.
Diet Recommendations
- Calcium and Magnesium are quite vital in formation of bones and optimum strength.
- Increase food rich in calcium like milk, yogurt, lassi, green leafy vegetables, whole grain cereals etc...
- And food rich in magnesium such as dried fruits and nuts, wheat germ, banana, beet roots, green leafy vegetables etc...
- Increase your intake of dried fruits and nuts to maintain healthy bones and to prevent osteoporosis.
- Osteoporosis sufferers should limit food rich is oxalates (such as spinach, methic, beet roots, rhubarb).
- High oxalate is known to reduce calcium absorbtion.
- It is best to avoid tea, coffee, caffeine, alcohol and refined sugars.
- Excess of oil and salty foods can also reduce the calcium in the body, especially for the elderly.
- Dandelion plant has abundance of organic magnesium.
- Freshly prepared juice from the leaves and roots or leaves alone are valuable for all bone disorders, it is often mixed with juices of carrot leaves and turnips for treating osteoporosis.
Our Approach
- Supplying nutrients like bio-available calcium, minerals and collagen protein, which helps maintain the density of bones
- Providing your body with bio-energetic information on the ideal configuration of bone-matrix, thus coaxing it into optimal bone regeneration
- Teaching your body how to regulate progesterone and estrogen levels (women's kit)
- Strengthening your bones, and supporting their structure and functions.

OSTP Soundscape
A download button will be provided at the right-hand corner of the shopping cart, once the product is purchased. You can then download a zip file which will be unzipped by windows when you download and double-click on it. You will see 2 OSTP therapy files in the download. One is ultrasonic and the other contains wave sounds. Both files can be played, separately, during the day or night, and work holistically, naturally and gently on the sub-conscious mind to influence positive changes in the body.
Our ultrasonic subliminal messages are believed to work above the threshold of conscious perception. You can use them at work, at home while watching TV, without distracting your conscious awareness, or disturbing anyone else.
Please be sure not to use them while driving a car, operating machinery or doing any activity that requires working-state reflexes, because the embedded brainwave technology is believed to naturally relax your overall state of being.
For maximum exposure and results, you can play the tracks at night, on continuous play. One track is completely silent to your conscious perception, and the other has sound waves. As long as you can hear the ocean sounds, be assured that you are being exposed to the positive subliminal messages.
It may take 30 days or more to create a new habit through subliminal programming, but progress can occur more quickly with repeated use and reinforcement. You should listen to the files/tracks as often as you can. It is recommended that you listen to them for at least 20 minutes a day, for the first 30 days and semi-regularly thereafter.

that pic with jodi is just horible.what on earth is she telling to her?and to her dad?-well, many older people wearing sun glasses becouse they dont seem comfortable with their older look,so they just hide their wrinkles.maybe he does that too for that same reason,maybe not.but i realy like him,he seem so cool to me.
ReplyDelete - AnonymousMarch 9, 2010 at 12:50 PM
maybe her dad waswearing those glasses because he was working. And he needed it because he has to take care of stuff outside and it was suny and he needed to see what he was doing.
Kristen dress was gorgeous and now that i know monique did it for her specially it makes it even better. she didn't need bling bling. she was perfect like this - AnonymousMarch 9, 2010 at 6:49 PM
I feel sorry for Kristen Stewart- the press constantly print stories, moaning about her not dressing well enough, and then when she does wear something stunning, they find something else to pick at. Leave the girl alone, she looked amazing.

Hello Mrs. Brown, Thank you for all your work with EWTN and the pro life movement. I was wondering if I could ask Dr. Anthony Dardano a question? I am 46 (47 in a couple more months) and have had 6 children. I would like to have another one although I'm pretty sure it's too late. Is there anything I can do that is in line with Catholic teaching to increase my chances of getting pregnant? Thank you. |
Answer by Judie Brown on 9/26/2013: | ||||||||
Dear Anon Here is a response from our medical advisor, Anthony Dardano, MD While fertility does decrease as one approaches menopause, pregnancy is still possible. As a
general rule, the more regular the periods still are, the more apt you are to get pregnant.
Outside of the general recommendations of a healthy diet and exercise there is not much
more to offer. One thing that might be helpful is the over the counter ovulation predictor. A
morning sample of urine is tested and ovulation is predicted via the test strip. The positive
readings will predict ovulation thereby recommending intercourse during the fertile time. As
an aside this same test can be used to avoid intercourse during this fertile time thereby
resulting in an effective natural family planning method. The use of the product with the
intent either to attain pregnancy or to avoid pregnancy, is morally permissible. Finally pray to Our Lady to keep you in good health and grant you this most noble wish. My prayers are with you as well. Anthony Dardano, MD, FACS, FACOG |

"Only if we recognize these untouchable rights will we prevent unacceptable interference in human rights," the archbishop said, adding that if such rights are violated, world peace is in danger.
Especially at risk, the archbishop said, is the right of religious freedom for Catholics amidst the "systematic cultural derision shown towards religious beliefs." Garcia-Gasco lamented that such an affront to religious freedom is even present "in democratic countries (such as Spain) that seemed to have cemented respect for the freedom of persons."
"Without an attitude of respect, without cultivating the virtue of justice that allows us to know and to give to each person what belongs to him, peace is threatened in every aspect of social life," Archbishop Garcia-Gasco underscored. He added that "unconditional respect for the dignity of each human" should be fostered at every level of society.
After pointing out that we are all called to be "caretakers of the gift of life that we receive from God," the archbishop warned that the dignity of the human being "is trampled upon in our society every time there is an attack against life," whether from "armed conflicts, terrorism and the diverse forms of violence" or from "the silent deaths provoked by hunger, abortion, and experimentation with human embryos."
The archbishop urged Catholics to reject the relativistic ideologies, "which ends the lives of human beings in the most difficult moments of their existence and stems from utilitarian interests or economic policies that see the human being as a burden when he is not capable of producing."
Regarding religious freedom, the archbishop stressed that peace in the world is in danger "when Christians and the followers of other religious encounter difficulties in publicly and freely professing their religious convictions," and he warned against an "intolerant secularism" that seeks to prohibit all public expressions of faith.
"When the dignity of the human being is not respected, when life is attacked and freedom is oppressed," he stated, "what ends up being promoted is a mentality and a culture hostile to peace."
Archbishop Garcia-Gasco called for "the re-making of a true culture of human dignity and of fundamental rights, so that the desires for authentic peace are not radically frustrated."
