All of the most popular browsers such as Chrome, Firefox, Internet Explorer, have different security advantages and shortcomings. We've put them through rigorous tests, to find out which is best for you.
When it comes to the most secure browsers, there are a number of different opinions out there. The recent out-of-schedule emergency patches for Internet Explorer that Microsoft has rolled-out have had some pundits recommending any browser but IE as the best security defence.
Although there is some safety in using less frequently attacked software, a better question is which is the safest choice among the most popular browsers? What are the most important security features to look for in a browser, and what are the weaknesses to beware?
- Microsoft Internet Explorer 8 review
- Google Chrome review
- Apple Safari 3.0.4 review
- Mozilla Firefox 3.1 review
- Opera 9.5 review
This review focuses on security features of the following Windows-based internet browsers: Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Microsoft Internet Explorer, Opera Software's Opera and Apple's Safari. All but Chrome are included because they rank among the most popular browsers, with long track records and millions of users.
Google Chrome is included because it boasts a unique security model and the wide expectation to significantly eat into the other browsers' market share. The latest publicly available versions (including beta versions) have been used in the review. Each browser has been tested on Windows XP Pro SP3 and Windows Vista Enterprise.
The purpose of this review was to test each browser's security fitness. As such, these reviews generally do not cover any new features not related to security. Also, since this review was focused on testing the security of each particular browser, all browsers were tested with the default vendor-installed add-ons only.
For example, although NoScript is a popular Firefox browser add-on often installed to enhance security, it isn't installed by default and isn't created by the vendor, so it wasn't included in the review.

Baton twirling is a sport involving the manipulation of a metal rod with the hands and body to a co-coordinated routine, similar to rhythmic gymnastics.
The distinguishing fundamental characteristics are:
The discipline requires the simultaneous blending of these fundamental characteristics all set to music, utilizing time and space to display both technical merit and artistic expression in creating a total package for the viewer's eye.
Baton twirling started in Eastern Europe and Asia. It is thought it started at dance festivals where the goers used knives, guns, torches and sticks to twirl with and toss. The "activity" progressed into the armies of some countries which twirled with rifles during marches. When the army was parading, they added a rifle twirler to the front of the marchers. The rifle was then switched for a "mace". The mace was much larger than the batons of today and imbalanced. They are still used by some marching bands at parades nowadays. The mace barer or "drum major" twirled the baton whilst leading the army or band. The was very popular in the United States following World War II with the American Legion Bands and the Fireman's Bands. The maces were altered for easier twirling and now resemble the batons. They were given smaller ends of light rubber, made from hollow light metal and balanced to give accuracy to the twirler. It is thought it was the involvement of females ("drum majorettes") and the progression of twirling that resulted in the of the lightening and balancing of the baton. The sport came to North America when Major Millsap's created baton twirling when he established Millsap's College in the United States in Mississippi after the Civil War.
While many member countries have their own national organizations, the World Baton Twirling Federation governs the sport of baton twirling on an international level.
The increasing popularity of the sport of baton twirling throughout the world brought about the formation of the WORLD BATON TWIRLING FEDERATION (WBTF). An organizational meeting in London, England in 1977 brought together the leaders of the baton twirling organizations from many countries around the world. The founding President of the WBTF was Mr. John Kirkendall, from Ypsilanti, Michigan, USA.
At that meeting, the WBTF was formed to develop, encourage, and standardize the sport. With the spirit of international cooperation which characterized the London meeting, the second meeting was held in the Canary Island in 1978 at which time the By-Laws of the Federation were approved and discussion of international rules of competition were debated by the representatives.
As a prelude to the first World Competition, the WBTF conducted the first World Demonstration of Baton Twirling on March 31, 1979, in the beautiful setting of Piazza San Marco in Venice, Italy. An estimated crowd of 10,000 spectators watched as athletes performed complicated routines with precision and grace.
In October of 1979, the Federation representatives met in Paris, France to finalize all plans for the first WORLD CHAMPIONSHIPS OF BATON TWIRLING, bringing together teams of twirlers from ten countries to compete in a spirit of healthy, athletic competition. The United States Twirling Association, Inc. hosted the first World Championships in Seattle, Washington in 1980. Each successive year, one member country has hosted the championships.
Affiliate Membership was established for new and developing countries to allow close affiliation with the Federation before moving up to Provisional Membership, which then allows these new countries additional involvement prior to obtaining full membership status in the Federation. Some of the major accomplishments made over the years include the following:
The WBTF is committed to the ideals of democracy, fairness, and honesty; its Board of Directors work on long-range projects and oversees specific focus areas. The Technical and Judges' Committees have standardized the sport of baton twirling through extensive testing and development.
Twirlers, coaches, judges, and parents look to the WBTF World Championships as the epitome of baton twirling excellence.
The World Baton Twirling Record Book, sponsored by Star Line Baton Company Inc. and the WBTF provides photographs, text and complete competition results for previous World Baton Twirling Championships and the International Cup, plus it also provides other articles and history of the WBTF.
We all know that the era of pleated mini-skirts and high-stepping parade marchers as baton twirlers has diminished and that baton twirling has progressed to a physically demanding, world class sport. Baton twirling has developed into a multi-faceted sport for everyone - children, adolescents, and adults. It is a great sport for recreation, school groups, community organizations, and, of course, competition.
But baton twirling is not only a sport - it is also an art. It is an art because it requires style and beauty, and a sport because it combines intense coordination to keep the baton in motion while the body moves in a graceful manner, all the while incorporating dance moves, gymnastic maneuvers, and music interpretation demanding a high level of concentration and physical exertion. In addition, baton twirling promotes sportsmanship and a competitive spirit. Baton twirling as a competitive sport encompasses the physical stamina and agility of gymnastics and dance, the artistic expression and beauty of figure skating and ballet, and the technical skill of all these sports combined.
Baton twirling has truly become a sight to behold - an entertaining and exciting sport to perform and watch. Baton twirling has become a great sport and a great activity for boys and girls, and men and women.
Participating in the sport of competitive baton twirling has given many athletes the change to learn about discipline, perseverance, frustration, uncertainty, pain, victory, even defeat. Baton twirling gives the athlete an opportunity to achieve, to feel a sense of self-esteem and personal accomplishment, and to learn about setting and attaining goals. The World Baton Twirling Championships and International Cup allow our athletes to meet new friends, learn about different cultures, and represent their country in a spirit of patriotism at the most prestigious baton twirling championships with dignity and pride.
The World Baton Twirling Federation is composed of the most devoted leaders, the friendliest baton twirlers, and the most dedicated and supportive parents. Member countries of the WBTF believe in their organization and its ideals. The leaders of the WBTF devote their lives to an acknowledged cause - the growth and development of competitive baton twirling as a recognized sport with the promise of fair competitions for all the athletes. We hope that the sport of baton twirling will expand over all continents, so that one-day, the Sport of Baton Twirling will receive Olympic recognition.
The first World Baton Twirling Championships were held in 1980 in Seattle, Washington, USA with athletes from ten countries of the World Baton Twirling Federation competing in three divisions: Junior Women, Senior Women and Men.
At this event, all three World Champions represented the United States of America:
Historical results from all of the WBTF World Championships and International Cup competitions are found in the Results section of the website.

So, today is the last day of this year's Google Summmer of Code (although the date on the post will say it's August 17, it's still August 16 where I am =]). Time surely has flown by! I was really worried at the beginning of the program, there was a lot of code I had to get used to, and I still didn't know exactly how some things had to be done. But in the end, everything worked out, and I believe this project was a great success.
I was able to finish all the tasks that were on the original proposal, with minimal adaptations. I also documented everything as well as I could, both with comments in the code and posting the details in this blog. There are two demo applications as well, to show how the API should be used.
I would like to thank everyone from CrystalSpace for the opportunity, specially my mentor Andrew. People have been very helpful and friendly since our first contacts, during the GSoC applications period. I hope the code produced during this program can be put to good use.
Please feel free to contact me at anytime by mail. I will also stick around the IRC channel.
Best regards,
This last week I have made a few changes to the code, and I thought it would be good to make one post to talk a little about them.
First and most important, I found a problem with the demo application (not exactly a bug, more of a map misbehavior). If you plot a path going from the stairs in the basement01 sector to the basement03 sector, near the basement-dungeon sector, the path is likely to go below the stairs and through a wall. After careful examination, I realized this was actually caused by some parts of navigation meshes that were created below the stairs, due to the level geometry. Since Detour searches for the polygon nearest to the path's starting point, one of the polygons in this disconnected piece of mesh was being chosen, which caused the problem. In order to fix this, I altered the portal's polygon position for the portals that connect basement01 and basement03 in the world xml file, moving them up a little (the portal polygons were going below the stair level).
Here is the modified world file: link.
Second, I changed the DebugRender methods to return a list of csSimpleRenderMesh instead of drawing the structures directly using OpenGL. Notice that now you don't have to (read you shouldn't) call those methods every frame, only when the structure being drawn changes (you have to ask the iGraphics3D plugin to draw the meshes every frame, however).
Finally, I added another hotkey to the pathfindingtest application. Upon pressing 't', a path will be calculated between two predetermined points. This path will then be compared to a path previously calculated, and an error message will be displayed if they differ. If the paths are equal, nothing will happen.

Springs Fire May Be Fully Contained Monday, Officials Say
Sunday, May 5, 2013
Firefighting officials in California are optimistic that they can get more of the Springs Fire under control Sunday, as for the second day cooler temperatures and higher humidity are expected to help their cause. The fire could be entirely contained by Monday, they say.
"Firefighters made progress overnight," member station KPCC reported this morning. "The Springs Fire is holding fast at 28,000 acres."
According to the state Cal Fire agency, the fire is now 60 percent contained, with "containment expected May 6th."
"Though the blaze has damaged 15 homes and five commercial buildings, no residences have been destroyed and no injuries have been reported, officials said," reports The Los Angeles Times.
The fire that first erupted in Camarillo Springs, about 50 miles northwest of Los Angeles, grew to cover 43 square miles before Saturday's favorable shift in the weather. And as we reported Saturday, the blaze hasn't damaged as many homes and businesses as could have been expected -- partly because of successful strategies in firefighting and home building.
As NPR's Kirk Siegler reports for our Newscast unit, Sunday's optimism doesn't mean the fire will be extinguished tomorrow -- or even this week.
"Containment simply means that a line will have been dug all the way around the perimeter of the fire, but the blaze itself is expected to still burn within it for weeks, if not months," Kirk says. "Officials in parched California are warning this could be a long and expensive fire season, one that's already off to an unusually early start."
Around California, crews are fighting four wildfires, with several others already at 100 percent containment.

Sorry This is re-post. I would really appreciate some assistance. I didn't get to many replies and this project was put on the back burner - its now back on my plate. I have make all sorts of adjustments to the fstab mount line so no improvement. Anyone's assistance is greatly appreciated I have successfully followed the howto for Virtual Users And Domains With Postfix, Courier, MySQL And SquirrelMail (CentOS 5.3 x86_64) (but for x86) and I have implemented this system successfully a few times. However I seem to have hit a issue. I have a situation where i have to place the mailstore on a windows NAS. I can sucessfully mounted the share with the correct gid/uid and i can get postfix to delivery mail to it properly however i can't seem to get courier to fetch the mail / display mail in any app (squirrel for example). It shows that there is in new messages eg: [Inbox (2)] but isn't able to display the mail itself. I have also attempted to maually telnet into the imap server and fetch mail and recieved the following error: a fetch 2 body[text] * 2 FETCH () * NO Cannot open message 2 a OK FETCH completed. a fetch 1 body[text] * 1 FETCH () * NO Cannot open message 1 a OK FETCH completed. After trying manually or via an mail app i see the following errors in the /var/log/maillog: Jun 18 09:33:48 mail01 imapd: rename(./new/1245268538.V17I22ed9bM285388.mail01.company.net,S= 1034,./cur/1245268538.V17I22ed9bM285388.mail01.company.net,S= 1034:2,) failed: No such file or directory fstab: //192.168.0.50/linuxmail /MailStoreAmun cifs username=net/linuxmail,password=Password1,uid=vmail,gid=vmail 0 0 I have also tried modes 0777 just to test with no change in results. authmysql(key parts for this issue): MYSQL_UID_FIELD 5000 MYSQL_GID_FIELD 5000 MYSQL_HOME_FIELD "/MailStoreAmun" MYSQL_MAILDIR_FIELD CONCAT(SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',-1),'/',SUBSTRING_INDEX(email,'@',1),'/')
Solved!! Hey all... Although no one replied to the post I thought I would post my finding in case anyone ever ran across this issue. The reason the SMB (Win-based NAS) wasn't working was because Courier fetch in Maildir format contained a colon which is not allowed in win based file names. However on the same device there was a NFS option we attemped to use this but obviously ran into the same issue. However using Character Translation Maps in the the winblows NFS server we can trasnlate the colon to be converted to something else while on the win filesystem and converted back when read by the NFS client: To configure: Configuring Server for NFS to Use a Character Translation File 1. Log on to the Server for NFS computer by using an administrative level account. 2. Open Services for UNIX Administration. 3. Click the Server for NFS pane, and then click the Server Settings tab. 4. Under File name handling, click to select the Translate File names check box. 5. CREATE a pain text file that simply contains a hex translation (one per line) as followings 0x00 0x3a : 0x00 0x2d ; replace client ":" with server dash "-" Save / exit 6 . Type the full path to the translation file that you created in the Use character translation files box, or click Browse to locate the file. 7. Click Apply. 8. Change Locking time to 15seconds (Locking tab), click apply 9. Restart NFS Although clearly not my first choice to use anything Win based for this solution, sometimes you have to work with what you have and when no one wants to shell out any money this is what it comes down too. BTW, you can also do the following prior to building the package with courier to avoid the colon However I chose not to go this route as this could violate standard maildir format Hope this helps someone else. Thanks Aly

Compassion Quiets the Mind, Improves the Body, Embraces the World
I was sitting in a breakout session a couple weeks ago with about 50 or 60 others at the "Practicing Mindfulness & Compassion" conference hosted by the U.C. Berkeley-based Greater Good Science Center (GGSC). Immediately adjacent to us were three or four other breakout sessions, with only the thinnest of walls separating us. The concrete floor, high ceiling, and massive windows throughout the converted assembly plant we were meeting in only served to amplify all the discussions taking place.
…Health regardless of lifestyle, diet, and genes?
Joe Stampone, a relative of one of the founding fathers of Roseto, Pennsylvania, explains why early researchers were so intrigued: "Virtually no [resident] under 55 died of a heart attack; for men over 65, the death rate from heart attack was half that of the United States as a whole; and the death rate from all causes was 35% lower than it should have been. There was no suicide, no alcoholism, no drug addiction, and little crime to speak of. No one was on welfare and no one even suffered from peptic ulcers. These people died of old age. That's it!"
So, what kept these Italians so healthy?

The Arkansas Natural Resources Commission (ANRC) is investigating the Bayou Bartholomew Watershed (HUC 08040205) to review the current flood risk and identify potential long-term risk reduction projects that local communities are interested in pursuing. This project is being performed under a Cooperating Technical Partner (CTP) agreement between the ANRC and the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA).
The Bayou Bartholomew Watershed (HUC 08040205) encompasses an area of approximately 1,534 square miles and extends across two states (Arkansas and Louisiana) and seven counties/parishes (Ashley, Chicot, Cleveland, Desha, Drew, Jefferson, and Lincoln Counties in Arkansas and Morehouse Parish in Louisiana) in the southeast portion of Arkansas and northeast portion of Louisiana. The major community in the watershed is a portion of Pine Bluff. Smaller communities include Hamburg and Star City, and a portion of Dermott, Monticello, Parkdale, Portland, Tillar, White Hall, Wilmot, and Winchester. As this watershed extends across two states and the populated land area is located in Arkansas, a single Discovery project has been planned with the ANRC taking the lead. Due to the rural nature of the land area in Louisiana, limited information has been provided for that extent of the project area.
The Bayou Bartholomew Watershed was selected by the Arkansas Natural Resource Commission (ANRC), the State's CTP with FEMA Region 6, for the reasons summarized below.
Topographic data developed from a Light Detection and Ranging System (LiDAR) is available throughout the watershed aiding in providing quality data.
Losses in Chicot, Desha, and Jefferson counties have exceeded $7.8 million from 1978 through 2015, and there are over 1,100 policies. These reported values include entire counties which may or may not be wholly located in the watershed.
Five of the seven counties in the Arkansas portion of the watershed have Hazard Mitigation Plans in progress: Ashley, Chicot, Cleveland, Jefferson, and Lincoln. The Hazard Mitigation Plans for Desha and Drew Counties have expired.
The communities of Desha County, Monticello, and Pine Bluff have multiple claims listed as BCX Claims, which are claims that occur outside the mapped floodplain. This indicates the need for additional review to determine if the effective maps are in need of update.
The Bayou Bartholomew Alliance is a non-profit organization that was designed to help protect and preserve Bayou Bartholomew and its tributaries. Additionally, they perform outreach in the watershed and aid in some overall improvement projects. Any large scale projects in the watershed could lead to a local teaming opportunity.
In May 2016, ANRC, as the State CTP, will hold Discovery Meetings in this watershed. During Discovery, ANRC and FEMA will reach out to local communities to:

If I was going to buy myself a Mother's Day gift...
These La Rochere Fleur de Lys would be on the list... I love the heavy, chunky glass. I'm in need of some new props for our table- I'm sure you're all getting tired of my current glasses! These are only around $10 each. A steal for something so classic.
This Lollia "Wish" candle smells like summer. I got my bridesmaids the hand cream as one of their gifts... one sweet smell takes me right back to Seaside! Large Lollia Wish Candle $32
I'd order these herb topiary... because I like pretty things that are useful, too. Herbs, $39 for all 3.
And the Jack Rogers that I never got around to ordering for myself!

I look forward to continue this interaction. Here are some ideas to get this done.
1. Ask a question. If I know, I'll answer it here or post my response in other blogs. (with a link to your blog of course)
2. Interview me. This is similar to what Diogenes did for getting me to participate in the Fine Art of Blogging writing series. Once posted, will link to it. Make the interview questions brief though.
3. Tell me something about you. Perhaps share something about yourself like are you single or married? In a leadership position or aspiring? Still a teenager or in your 20s, 30s? You've been visiting this blog for quite sometime. How did you discover it? What post did you like the most? Suggestions on topics and don't forget to leave a link to your blog. If I like it, I'll visit your blog and even make a post about it either here or where it would be applicable in my other blogs.

The definition of behalf means in place of or for someone or something.
An example of behalf is a lawyer acting for her client.
support, interest, side, etc.: I speak in his behalf
Origin of behalf
ME, in phrase on (mi) behalfe, on (my) side ; from Old English be, by + healf, half, sidebehalf Idioms
in behalf of
in the interest of; for
on behalf of
speaking for; representing
Interest, support, or benefit.
Origin of behalf
Middle English, from Old English be healfe, by (his) side : be, by, at; see by1 + healf, side, half; see half. Usage Note: A traditional rule holds that in behalf of and on behalf of have distinct meanings. According to this rule, in behalf of means "for the benefit of," as in We raised money in behalf of the earthquake victims, while its counterpart on behalf of means "as the agent of, on the part of," as in The guardian signed the contract on behalf of the child. But as the two meanings are quite close, the phrases are often used interchangeably, even by reputable writers. Statistically, on behalf of is used far more frequently than in behalf of, and in fact the Usage Panel prefers on behalf of for both meanings. In our 2004 survey, 87 percent of the Panel preferred on behalf of in the sentence The lawyer spoke to the media (in behalf of/on behalf of) his client, conforming to the traditional rule for using on behalf of. But some 75 percent also preferred on behalf of in the sentence After sitting silently as one complaint after another was raised, he finally spoke up (in behalf of/on behalf of) his kid's coach, where the speaker is less of a spokesperson than an ad-hoc defender, and so the meaning "in defense of, for the benefit of" is a better fit, and the traditional rule therefore would require in behalf of. All this suggests that on behalf of may be generally supplanting in behalf of.behalf
(plural behalfs or behalves)
- Advantage; favor; stead; benefit; interest; profit; support; defense; vindication.
From Middle English bihalve ("nearby"), from healfe ("side")

From the wild-colored berries in your local produce section to the breathtaking reds and violets of autumn, anthocyanin is the pigment most often responsible for giving plants colors in the spectrum between red and blue. This pigment is notable for both the way it takes part in leaf metabolism as winter approaches, and the sundry ways that it is useful to man.
As summer turns to autumn, trees begin to save up all the nutrients they can in their wood, and discard those elements which are either very common in the environment or too expensive (in terms of energy) to store. Part of this process, known as senescence, stops the flow of chemicals needed for photosynthesis from entering the leaves. This makes sense, as the sun is getting further from the given hemisphere, so even if leaves could survive being frozen the amount of energy they create in photosynthesis would not be as much as that expended in keeping them vital. This blockade causes the metabolic pathways used in photosynthesis break down, and different parts of them become available to take part in producing anthocyanin. Thus, over the course of a few months, less and less chlorophyll is created and used, while more and more anthocyanin builds up in the leaves.
Anthocyanin is stored in the vacuoles of leaves, which serve primarily as a storage place for water. Since it is not kept in the plant's cells, and especially not its chloroplasts, anthocyanin is not at all involved with photosynthesis proper. Instead, it is the chemical's color itself which has a role in leaf metabolism, rather than any of its chemical properties.
One theory says that it acts to protect the leaves (as they become fragile during senescence) from UV damage by absorbing particular wavelengths of light -- with vacuoles located above cells with the highest concentration of chloroplasts, this makes some sense. Another guess is that anthocyanin works to slow down photosynthesis by reflecting the wavelengths of light that are best used by it; leaves are only green because they absorb the non-green sections of the spectrum. Slowed photosynthesis would theoretically benefit the plant by using less of its energy to produce more energy, which because of senescence wouldn't be able to escape from the leaf anyway. One final finding is that anthocyanin light absorption helps stop photoinhibition within the leaves. Photoinhibition occurs when leaf metabolism is slowed or stopped due to high-intensity light hitting leaves which are already damaged -- i.e. leaves which have survived a frost or two and still need to complete vital metabolic steps.
Besides its role in leaves, anthocyanin shows up in fruits and vegetables, lending some of them their attractive coloration. It is actually the pH level of the surrounding water which decides anthocyanin's color, from perfect red at pH < 3, to violet around 7, up to completely blue at pH > 11. Hence, strawberries, tomatoes, and other acidic fruits have a red coloration; neutral plants like red cabbage and grapes are more purple; and basic plants (of which there are comparatively few), such as blueberries, are blue. Some plants do use other colorings, though, like beets, which are red due to a pigment called betalin. Anthocyanin is responsible for the coloration of red wine, and acidification is why wine ages from red-violet to brick red. Notably, a ghetto form of universal indicator can be made by boiling the pigment out of red cabbage -- the color when reacted with an unknown substance can give hints to its acidity.
Finally, some studies seem to show that anthocyanin has health benefits when consumed in reasonable amounts. Neurogenesis in the hippocampus (the only part of the brain able to grow new neurons) is upregulated in rats when they are fed the equivalent of a cup of blueberries per day. This leads to "better memory", exemplified by the rats doing 50% better in repeated maze trials than a control group. Also, the chemical has antioxidant properties and seems to protect against colon and other cancers. Anthocyanin may be responsible for the health benefits of a glass or two of wine per day, as popularized a few years ago by the press.
For reference, here is a table (generated from a chart, so probably quite inaccurate) of anthocyanin content of different fruits and berries, measured by mg / kg:
Blueberry: 3650 Elderberry: 453 Chokeberry: 317 Blackcurrant: 227 Cherry: 186 Grape: 159
(The secret messge of this table is EAT MORE BLUEBERRIES!)

3-D Printers to Have Digital Rights Management: Digital Rights Management (DRM) is the music and film industry's way of keeping you from illegally sharing their content, and now it may be coming to 3-D printing, reports TorrentFreak.
3-D printers, with the right printer cartridges, could ostensibly be made to print anything from a complete shoe to parts for a battleship. Their versatility allows 3-D printers to create any shape, including copyrighted works. This has some worried about printing piracy.
In response to an announcement from the popular piracy forum, PirateBay, a patent has surfaced outlining the methods to secure three-dimensional printed designs.
Essentially the patent says, "a digital fingerprint of 'restricted items' will be held externally and printers will be required to compare the plans of the item they're being asked to print against those in a database. If there's a match, printing will be disallowed or restricted," explains TorrentFreak.
Whether this new DRM for printing will stop piracy is unknown, but as 3-D printing becomes more mainstream, the lawyers and rights-holders are already preparing for battle. via TorrentFreak

Written by Staff Reports
As legislation allowing same-gender marriage comes closer to approval in Maryland, the Rev. John. R. Deckenback, UCC Central Atlantic Conference Minister, delivered testimony to the Maryland House of Delegates Judiciary Committee Feb. 25 in support of the bill. He was invited by Equality Maryland as one of many leaders offering testimony at the hearing.
His testimony included details of the UCC's ongoing support for same-gender couples and its work in the national marriage equality movement. Deckenback also addressed the social realities of same-gender couples. "Same gender loving couples are respected members of our churches and communities, he said. "We should celebrate spiritually and legally the covenants which they have made to each other."
Deckenback's statement is below and a video of his testimony is available online.
Testimony in Support of HB 175
Religious Freedom and Civil Protection Act
State of Maryland
House of Delegates
Judiciary Committee
February 25, 2011
Rev. Dr. John R. Deckenback
Conference Minister
United Church of Christ
Central Atlantic Conference
Delegate Vallario and members of the Judiciary Committee, I am the Rev. John R. Deckenback.
Since 1992 I have been the Conference Minister, chief executive and spiritual leader of the United Church of Christ's Central Atlantic Conference. Our Catonsville offices serve 175 congregations and 450 clergy.
My wife and I live in downtown Frederick.
Thank you for the opportunity to present this testimony. This is not the first time I have appeared before this committee in support of marriage equality.
In 2005, the delegates at the national General Synod of the United Church of Christ overwhelmingly affirmed marriage equality. I am proud that the Central Atlantic Conference was one of the sponsors of this resolution. I am also pleased that since 2005 additional faith communities have joined in affirming marriage equality.
Through the legislation which is before you today, and the companion Senate legislation, I believe the Maryland legislature is on the cusp of doing something great which is politically, ethically and theologically sound.
Understandings regarding marriage in the church and large society have evolved over the years. In Biblical texts you can find acknowledgment of polygamy, servants substituted for "barren wives", or the consideration of wives as property. In our church, 19th century missionaries were required to be married but only male missionaries could vote. Our understandings of marriage have changed and will continue to change.
The United Church of Christ's Book of Worship teaches that "Marriage is a gift of God, sealed in sacred covenant."
The faith communities represented here today continue to define marriage in a variety of ways. I believe it is in Maryland's best interests to acknowledge that marriages and families come in a variety of forms. Religious liberty is one of the founding principles of our state and country ... our forebears learned (often the hard way) that discrimination, even discrimination based on religious conviction, can exact a painful price on the very fabric of a community.
I see no compelling state interest in continuing discrimination in marriage based on gender.
Same gender loving couples are respected members of our churches and communities. We should celebrate spiritually and legally the covenants which they have made to each other.
Several United Church of Christ pastors and lay members from our congregations in Maryland have joined me here today. Regularly, these pastors are invited into the most spiritually intimate moments of people's lives, including the prayerful decisions of couples to marry.
My wife is the pastor of one of our Montgomery County congregations. She along with other pastors share how our congregations have been blessed by the presence of same gender loving couples. These are couples who desire to be fully embraced not only by the congregations but by the society at large. Sadly, many of these constructive Maryland couples have had to go elsewhere to have their marriages recognized legally.
A Frederick pastor of one of this state's oldest congregations recently shared with me that their congregation has experienced growing pains because the church is growing as a result of its open and affirming affirmation that all are welcome. Couples of all types have found a home at the church and are inviting their friends to join them.
Our 2005 General Synod vote for marriage equality was not just symbolic but it has found real meaning in the fabric of our congregations.
That Frederick congregation has grown numerically as well as in its spiritual understanding of what it means to be a welcoming Christian community.
Some have suggested that some other term should be used to describe the precious relationship between same gender loving couples. Lets not duck the use of the word marriage … it is an important word that carries tremendous symbolism and connotes privileges and responsibilities. Substitute words for the real thing just don't measure up.
Members of the Committee, I am here as a pastor, a person of faith, one who celebrates his Christian faith to urge you to fully embrace marriage equality for all of Maryland's citizens.
Thank you for your caring and your time.

The Effects of Vitamin D and Bone Loss in Parkinson's Disease (PDVD3)

- How to Read a Study Record
Health care burdens from neurodegenerative diseases are expected to increase disproportionately. Increasing age also predisposes this same population to other chronic diseases including osteoporosis, a progressive systemic skeletal disease characterized by low bone mass, which leads to an increase susceptibility to fractures. In the United States, 44 million people are estimated to be at risk for osteoporosis and low bone mass emphasizing the enormity of this public health problem.
Parkinson's disease is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder affecting about 1 million people. Evidence indicates that Parkinson's disease patients are at a higher risk for low bone mineral density, which can contribute to increased fractures compared to healthy subjects. In fact, several risk factors of osteoporosis in patients with PD have been identified, including advanced stages of PD, low body mass index, inadequate sunlight exposure and decreased vitamin D levels. Some or all of these factors in conjunction with decreased immobilization that may occur with PD, put patients at increased risks for fractures. Few studies however have examined bone markers in PD patients. Even fewer studies have examined the impact of Vitamin D supplementation on bone metabolism and mineralization in PD patients.
Vitamin D is an essential component in bone health, promoting calcium absorption in the gut and maintaining adequate serum calcium and phosphate concentrations, which enable normal mineralization of bone.

Detailed Description:
Parkinson's disease is the second most common neurodegenerative disorder after Alzheimer's disease affecting approximately 1% of the population older than 50 years. There is a worldwide increase in disease prevalence due to the increasing age of human populations. The disease is characterized by tremor, stiffness of the limbs and trunk, impaired balance and coordination, and slowing of movements, leading to immobility and frequent falls. Patients also sometimes develop other symptoms, including difficulty swallowing, disturbed sleep, and emotional problems. Parkinson's disease results from the loss of dopaminergic neurons in the substantia nigra region of the brain. The cause and mechanism of continued neuron cell death in the substantia nigra is currently unknown.
Epidemiological studies suggest an association between Parkinson's disease and osteoporosis, vitamin D inadequacy and altered bone and mineral metabolism. Accumulating evidence indicates that patients with Parkinson's disease are at a higher risk for fractures compared to healthy subjects. This could be attributed to several contributing factors including increased rate of falls, vitamin D deficiency, reduced body mass index and reduced bone mineral density.

Comparing talent from different regions of the country is tricky business. However, if you're an East Coaster looking to assert your area's dominance you need not look further than the national U-19 tournament scene. Historically when the best from the east are pitted against the best of the west, the east generally comes out on top.
But that doesn't mean the west isn't moving in the right direction, as proven by the recent honored bestowed upon the West Coast Starz travel club organization, which came in at #6 on Inside Lacrosse's list of Top 10 clubs in the nation.
From the July issue:
"Starz has done an excellent job pulling together the West's top talent during the summer club turn. Joey Kimpler (Junipero Serra, Calif.) is a top midfielder and all-state football running back prospect. Jake Bolwar (Chaparral, Ariz.) is an athletic LSM recruit who could turn heads. Sophomore Foster Wisman (North Shore, Wash.) is a defenseman who already stands 6-foot-4, and Kyle Runyon (Coronado, Calif.) is another strong attack prospect."
To be fair, many of the other teams that have been ranked represent a much smaller region than the Starz, which is actually made up of a larger number of state and city specific club organizations. At times, the best players from these organizations come together to form a greater regional team.
Think Megazord from the Power Rangers:
Regardless, the fact that the best players from the West are garnering enough respect to find their way on to the list says a lot about how much progress is being made on this side of the rockies. Nice work gentlemen.

I need a logo that has a clean, easily readable font.Because I am servicing attorneys, the feel must be professional - in otherwords this is not a marketing service for general business, it is a marketingservice for lawyers.
- design must be professional. My clients are attorneys (professional)
- logo must suggest trust as my clients can be skeptical and analytical
- logo should suggest creativity with a contemporary look and feel. I am selling my marketing know how
- logo should suggest that I am a visionary and on the leading edge of online and offline marketing
- logo should suggest perpetual growth and progress - new clients, new cases and increased revenues
- logo should encourage engagement - I want clients to call me now
- generally I like a clean look found in Web 2.0 and would consider transparency or even 3D if we can find that delicate balance between professional and creative marketing. Please see this Logorange article.
- I need the logo in a .jpg format and in a format that is scaleable
- the look of the logo must work in both color and in black and white. Attorneys still use faxes regularly and I need the look and feel to come through in a fax, with its inherent resolution issues
- 1. Iam a lawyer myself and one of my unique selling propositions is that as alawyer I have unique insight into the needs of my fellow lawyers. Perhaps myunique status as both a lawyer and a consultant could be incorporated into thedesign.
2. I would estimate that most of my clients will be male attorneys, age 35+
3. I expect that most of my clients will be lawyers providing personal legalservices to clients, as opposed to corporate services. In other words, myclients will be small firms that handle matters like personal bankruptcy,workers comp, social security disability, divorce, criminal.
- no "cartoony" look or anything that is overly colorful. No clip art
- I don't want a logo that looks like a traditional or stock law firm logo (i.e. pillars columns or scales of justice) or one that is overly buttoned-down looking or extremely conservative
- I am generally not a fan of reverse type

Back again after all these years
Sabathia to start Game 1 in ALDS
CLEVELAND -- The champagne was still flowing that September day in 2001, when the veteran pulled the rookie over for a quick word of advice, from one left-hander to another.
But what Chuck Finley said that day didn't initially register with C.C. Sabathia.
Here was Sabathia, just 21 years old and in the midst of a 17-win season. His Indians team had a payroll of more than $90 million and six American League Central Division titles in seven years under its belt.
So when Finley told him, in essence, to savor the moment, because one can never be sure when it will come again, Sabathia was unable to comprehend just how true those words would become.
"You don't really think about ever not making the playoffs," Sabathia said. "I didn't understand what he was telling me at the time."
Less than a year later, Sabathia saw teammate Bartolo Colon shipped to the Expos for prospects. And suddenly, the young Sabathia found himself thrust into the role of ace on a team that was going head-on into rebuilding mode.
The rebuild has since been completed. Sabathia is now a bona-fide No. 1 starter on a Tribe team that steamrolled its way to its first division title since 2001.
Getting to this point, however, was not as simple as waiting for the sands of time to pass through and the Indians' number to be called again. In the six-year journey back to supremacy, Sabathia has learned not only about the fine art of experiencing sustained success in the big leagues, but also about the mental fortitude it takes to become a champion.
Indeed, the 27-year-old version of Sabathia that will take the mound for the Indians in Game 1 of the ALDS against the Yankees is light years away from that kid who made his playoff debut (and lone appearance) in a 17-2 victory over the Mariners in Game 3 of the 2001 ALDS. When Sabathia reflected on that fleeting October experience, in which he became the youngest pitcher to win a game in ALDS history, he remembered the not-so-foreign feeling he had on the hill. "I was pretty calm, actually," Sabathia recalled with a smile. Yet staying calm wasn't always Sabathia's specialty in his early years. Bad innings would unravel him, and bad calls would have him barking at home-plate umpires. And on one particularly memorable night late in the 2004 season, Sabathia punched a hole in a clubhouse pillar after a tough loss. Though his overall numbers from his first few seasons never slid into the realm of mediocrity, Sabathia was, nonetheless, having trouble living up to his ace billing.

"On the field, I'd get frustrated," he said. "I put way too much pressure on myself." It was midseason 2005, when Sabathia's demons had begun to get the best of him in the win-loss ledger. He went 1-6 with an 8.08 ERA in a nine-start stretch between mid-June and the end of July, and the Indians believed he had begun tipping his pitches. To combat the issue, Sabathia began working with Tribe pitching coach Carl Willis on a new cut fastball for use against right-handers. And as the pitch began getting results, Sabathia began keeping his emotions under control. One can point to August of '05 as his definitive turning point. He's gone 41-19 since Aug. 1 of that year. And 2007 has been Sabathia's best season, to date. On a club that has been in or within striking distance of first place from the outset of the season, Sabathia has been a rock every fifth day, going 19-7 with a 3.21 ERA. "I think he really feels confidence in all his pitches at any time," Willis said. "I read where Curt Schilling made the comment that he feels comfortable throwing any pitch at any time, and he's been in the league 20 years. C.C.'s been here a long time, but still, at 27, to have that type of confidence in all your pitches is tremendous." Equally tremendous, Willis said, is the effect the even-tempered Sabathia has had on his teammates, most notably 19-game winner Fausto Carmona. "On the mental side, we talk so much with all our guys of learning to focus on the things you can control and not focusing on the things you can't," Willis said. "I really think C.C. has been the poster child of doing that this year." Sabathia, who will be facing the Yanks for the first time since Sept. 1, 2004, has found quite a few wins slip out of his reach this season, through little to no fault of his own. He logged nine shutout innings against the Reds on June 10, only to come out with a no-decision. Sabathia went 10 straight starts from July 24-Sept. 8 without giving up more than two earned runs, yet he went 4-3 in that span because of a lack of offensive support. Although such tough luck cost Sabathia the opportunity to become the Indians' first 20-game winner in 33 years, he's never once complained and never once wavered in his focus on helping his club reach the postseason. "The way C.C. comes back, the way he handles himself, that impresses the heck out of you, time and time again," Indians manager Eric Wedge said. "It's been a good three years now since he's been what you saw, just in regard to how he goes about his business." It's been a good six years since Sabathia received those words of wisdom from Finley, a player who reached the postseason with the Angels in his rookie year of 1986 and didn't get back until that '01 season. Sabathia might not have understood how wise Finley's words were at the time, but he certainly does now. "Throughout all the rebuilding, that's something that's stuck with me all these years," Sabathia said. "Going through the last few years, it really hit home." And when he takes the mound in Game 1, knowing full well that such starts are never guaranteed, Sabathia hopes to create a memory worth savoring.
