Dad returns baby's body to abortion clinic
Counselors question why police didn't investigate death

When a sidewalk counselor at James Pendergraft's Orlando, Fla., Women's Center abortion clinic encountered a man who told her he was delivering his baby's body to the clinic, she called police but they declined to investigate, and there is reason to believe that decision violated at least two laws that should have been controlling in the situation, according to an expert on the issue.
Officials with the Orlando police department declined to return multiple messages left by WND, and declined to respond to a written question officials told WND to submit about the situation.
It developed on Feb. 9, when counselor Patte Smith was in the area near the rear entrance to the building, as she has been for more than a decade, trying to convince those headed to the abortion business to change their minds about destroying unborn life.
In this particular case, she told WND, the man was approaching and he "looked very shaken, looked like he was in a daze." She approached him as close as she could, since sidewalk counselors are not permitted on abortion business property, and the man already was approaching the door.
"I explained the induction of labor medication doesn't do anything to harm the infant, that there was still time to change their minds," she told WND. "He said, 'You don't understand. This is my baby.' And he lifted up the bag that he had in his hands, a white trash bag, kind of clean and brand new, with something that was wrapped in the bottom. It could have been a towel or a small blanket wrapped what was at the bottom of the bag, a towel that had been amber, but it had bled through…"
"We knew that it was his baby. I asked, 'Please come over to me, to give the baby to me so we can bring the body to someone who cared,'" she said. "He said, 'No, this is my business.' At that moment the back door of the abortion clinic opened and (clinic worker) Sonia Merced merely put her hand straight out."
In a report by WND columnist Jill Stanek, she documented that Smith tried desperately to intervene.
"Don't," said Smith. "Don't give the baby to her!"
Merced turned to Smith, and using obscene language, told her to shut up, and whisked the bag and dead baby inside.
The counselor first advised off-duty Orlando police officer Charles May, working as a clinic guard, of the situation, then called 911 to report the baby's death. However, Smith said when the officers responded, they didn't investigate, and didn't take custody of the body.
In those moments, two laws that may have been controlling, one state and one federal, apparently were ignored, according to Mathew D. Staver, founder of Liberty Counsel and dean of the Liberty University School of Law.
The first was a Florida state prohibition on late-term abortions outside of hospitals, and the second was the federal Born Alive Infants Protection Act, which requires medical assistance for any child born alive, even if that happens during an abortion procedure, which in this case apparently involved the woman taking drugs to induce labor. Smith said in those cases sometimes the babies are delivered before women can return to the business.
Now, with the probable destruction of the body, an investigation never will reveal whether the abortion was a late-term procedure in violation of state law, or whether the infant was born alive and medical help was withheld, in violation of federal law, he noted.
Smith told WND that she later talked with the Orlando Police Department's Lt. Laura Houston, who told her that the police simply don't get involved in the abortion industry. WND messages left for Houston weren't returned. And when WND reached a Sgt. Barb Jones in the department, she told WND to submit questions in writing, which was done, but no response was returned.
Staver said there actually were three laws that should have been followed in the situation where there is a report of the death of an infant. "First, the state of Florida has a law that late-term abortions, in the third-trimester, must be done by a licensed physician in a hospital. And that's a (potential) criminal penalty."
He said such an abortion would have been illegal for the clinic to do, or for Pendergraft to supervise, because of the hospitalization requirement, because Pendergraft has no hospital privileges.
In fact, he noted, Pendergraft is under investigation at this point for allegedly violating that very state requirement: performing late-term abortions at a clinic and without a physician's attendance.
But he noted an autopsy on the child would have been necessary "and called for in this case," to provide those answers.
The second law, the federal act, also should have been controlling in the situation. "That law says that if an infant is born alive, there is a requirement to provide life-sustaining treatment to that child," he said. The law may have proven to not be applicable, given a stillborn infant, but once again only tests on the body could have determined that, he noted.
He also suggested that an investigation should have included the type of medication – reportedly Cytotec – used by the clinic to trigger the delivery of the child, because Pendergraft does not have the required permission to prescribe controlled substances, and is under investigation on allegations he's done that, too.
"I think law enforcement does have a responsibility to investigate," Staver, who has previous experience with the clinic, told WND. It was just a few years ago when Liberty Counsel handled a complaint on behalf of "Angele," a woman who had gone to Pendergraft's clinic for a late-term abortion.
Her child was born alive in the clinic, and clinic workers refused her frantic pleas to provide medical help, or get someone who could.
The woman herself eventually called 911 for help, but Staver said when officers arrived, "they were met by some workers of Dr. Pendergraft's. Those staff said 'Everything is under control,' and the officers did not come in to the facility."
"I felt so bad. I felt so helpless. I had been so wrong to come here… I wanted to fix and change everything once I saw Rowan's precious little face and body," Angele later told Life Site News.
When clinic workers refused to help, or call 911, she tried to comfort her son. "I stroked his precious little head and kept telling him I loved him and we would be okay," she said. She eventually fetched her cell phone, holding the baby still attached by the umbilical cord, but Rowan died before help arrived.
Pendergraft, who spent several months in prison for extortion before his conviction was overturned based on problems with the evidence, then was targeted by a complaint filed by Liberty Counsel on behalf of Angele.
Staver blamed society's "calloused" attitude toward abortion for the officer's actions. "It's an attitude that's developed. If it's abortion, their first response to anything is that 'Everything's fine.'"
"I think we need to develop a culture of life, and a conscience that respects the dignity of these unborn children," Staver said. "We're callous to the fact that abortions exist. We put our head in the sand to the barbaric actions (within abortion businesses)."
Smith reported that when officers arrived to her call, they took the young man aside, and then went back inside, and then disappeared.
She called their office, to be told no report was filed. One of the officers confirmed the young man admitted telling Smith there was a body in the bag, but the officer said the man was just "f——" with her.
The officers didn't look in the bag, didn't ask to look in the bag, didn't review video from cameras filming everything that goes on outside the clinic. Smith said Houston told her that officers simply don't have any jurisdiction in the matter of baby's body in the vicinity of an abortion clinic.
"Abortion is legal and we are not going to investigate, period," Smith said Houston told her.
Smith said she just had to speak out about the trauma she witnessed. "The public has a right to know that infants are born at home and are carried in bags to the backs of abortion clinics," she told WND.
Stanek noted that the incident followed by just days a situation in Lawrence, Mass., where Amber Abreu, 18, was charged with taking Cytotec illegally to abort her baby. The baby girl was between 23-25 weeks old, weighed one and a quarter pounds, and was aborted alive. Named Ashley, she died four days later at Tufts-New England Medical Center, and Abreu is facing the possible charge of homicide.

Superman Screenshot of the Day
Superman's junk, believe it or not, was a matter of a huge debate during the making of "Superman: The Movie." Apparently the suit Christopher Reeve wore was a bit revealing, even with the outside undies, and the debate was whether to minimize (with whatever) or maximize (with a codpiece). Producers Alexander and Ilya Salkind were definitely in favor of this latter approach. "Either he has a big one or he has nothing!" Ilya supposedly said.
They seemed to go both ways in the movie, didn't they? It's noticeable in some scenes, less so in others, but I haven't done extensive research. Volunteers?
The above shot, with codpiece, is from "Superman III." Computer technician Gus Gorman (Richard Pryor), at the behest of the villainous businessman Ross Webster (Robert Vaughn), has created a synthetic version of kryptonite, which acts upon the Man of Steel like red kryptonite. In this case, he turns evil, or at least mischievious, or at least horny. Webster's assistant, Lorelei (Pamela Stephenson), the booby blonde of this movie (replacing Valerie Perrine, to be replaced by Mariel Hemingway), then hangs out at the top of the Statue of Liberty to get Supes' attention. She gets it.
Question of the day: Would Richard Donner have approved of this shot? Would Geoffrey Unsworth? How about Jerry Siegel?

This program allows County Extension Offices to purchase computers, projectors and printers and request educational technology items. The CCPP has 3 components: The Purchasing Program, Innovative Technology Requests, and Special Technology Needs Request.
The Purchasing Program, often called Cost Share, uses only HP computers and printers with costs equally (50%) shared by Extension Administration. The computers and printers are top of the line HP business enterprise models with extended warranties and a track record of long service life. Specification details can be viewed by clicking the Package links. To order please read the Program Details at the bottom of this page and use the Cost Share online order form.
The Innovation Technology Request allows county staff to request a technology item to support a new educational effort or idea. It operates like a grant, you make the request and explain the use and potential results. Use the Innovative Technology Request form to request items like cameras, Tablets, wireless microphones, those odd adapters and cables you need. These requests are reviewed by administration and if granted you will consult with an IT Specialist to obtain what you need. To get the most of your idea and potentially share it, you will provide a report on the outcome.
The Special Technology Needs Request allows county staff to request a used computer at no cost (when available) or new equipment at a reduced cost. We recognize there are situations where a county office does not have the budget to replace computer or printer or obtain a computer for a new staff member. These requests will be reviewed by the DEA and Extension Administration. Use the Special Technology Request form to make your request.
If you have any questions on these components please contact Jim Segers at AgriLife Information Technology or your Regional IT Specialist.

More Information
How to Order:
To participate please complete the online order form. You will receive an email acknowledgment with detail for your records.
There are a few things I ask that you keep in mind when ordering:
Please be sure your county officials understand that any items purchased are, and will remain, property of Texas AgriLife Extension Service. I suggest they view the county cost as the purchase of a lifetime lease.
The source of funds for the county share should be funds that are currently available. You will be billed when the orders are confirmed as shipped.
Also regarding source of funds, any local source is acceptable. The local source does not need to be the county government, but could be one of your local committees, a fair board, 4H Adult Leaders, or even a private individual who just wants to contribute something to Extension. Just be sure that when we send a bill to the address you give us, someone will pay it. This local source must fully understand, though, that the equipment is for use by you and your Extension office, not for them.
The exception to this local source rule is where you have funds in an Extension workshop account which have been generated through a local or county level Extension educational event, where registration fees were paid to Extension. Since these funds were locally generated, they are eligible for use in the cost share program. State appropriated fund accounts cannot be used. If you use an Extension Account you must put the account number on the order form.
When completing the form, please be clear and complete on both the billing address and the shipping address.
If you have any questions, please let me know.

Ready to clean the bathrooms, but wait, I'd better do the pies first because what's more important? Doorbell rings, and its the UPS man with the cute little pie cutters I ordered from Williams-Sonoma. I didn't expect to see them before next week. I'm so excited I start cutting out acorns, maple leaves, pumpkins, and turkeys. How cute is that?
Here's the pie ready to go in the oven.
Gourds and pumpkins are the centerpiece, with a few pheasant feathers thrown in. Why not?

Adolf Loos: The Art of Architecture
I.B.Tauris, Mar 21, 2013 - Architecture - 290 pages
Widely regarded as one of the most significant prophets of modern architecture, Adolf Loos was a star in his own time. His work was emblematic of the turn-of-the-century generation that was torn between the traditional culture of the nineteenth century and the innovative modernism of the twentieth. His essay 'Ornament and Crime' equated superfluous ornament and 'decorative arts' with underclass tattooing in an attempt to tell modern Europeans that they should know better. But the negation of ornament was supposed to reveal, not negate, good style; and an incorrigible ironist has been taken too literally in denying architecture as a fine art. Without normalizing his edgy radicality, Masheck argues that Loos's masterful "astylistic architecture" was an appreciation of tradition and utility and not, as most architectural historians have argued, a mere repudiation of the florid style of the Vienna Secession. Masheck has reads Loos as a witty, ironic rhetorician who has all too often been taken at face value. Far from being the anti-architect of the modern era, Masheck's Loos is 'an unruly yet integrally canonical artist-architect'.

Three words. MONGOLS. IN. SPACE.
Yes, that's right, oh my blogettes, this story concerns the future that sprang from an alternate past in which the Mongol Empire did not fall apart after the death of Temujin, better known to history as Genghis Khan, but went on to conquer the entire world, which became known simply as Greater Mongolia. Sure, there are still pesky pockets of, e.g., Buddhists and Nestorian Christians and the odd Muslim here and there, but basically the Mongol culture, horses and all, dominated everything right up to and including humanity's journey to the stars.
A funny old thing, though, Mongols in space. The culture transmits to a space-born empire pretty well, if one can imagine people taking their steppe ponies with them on their spaceships (and hey, Reynolds has depicted a people who plan to take elephants into space with them, so why not ponies?) and still functioning without the Zero, which these Space Mongols still insist is a fruity Arab affectation they'll have no truck with, even though it makes their science and engineering a bit clunky and cumbersome. These are people who get drunk on fermented mare's milk and found a way to sing more than one note at a time, folks. They do stuff their own way. Even in space.
I'm ever astounded at how Reynolds managed to convey the scope and sweep, not only of a galactic Mongol Empire, but of what is essentially a multiverse, in just 85 tight pages.* And it's not just this empire he's describing, but its unique settlement of inhospitable worlds, like in this passage:
"There were no fixed communities on the moon. Instead, immense spiderlike platforms, mounted on six or eight intricate jointed legs, picked their way across the ever-shifting terrain in awesome slow motion."**And oh, there's a tight and nifty little plot that still manages to convey a sense of grand scale, too. It involves a secret government agent, a woman named Yellow Dog (one of a series of Reynolds' ass-kicking female characters who would not pass a Bechdel test so much as beat the crap out of you -- literally or metaphorically -- for suggesting it to her) whose mission is to investigate a series of phantom intrusions into the empire's (found and scavenged, a la the Gateways in Frederick Pohls' Heechee books***) interstellar transport network, and who runs afoul of a petty official who turns out to be anything but -- and discovers some mind-blowing secrets about the way things really work out there.
Truly a marvel, this one.
*Anyone who accuses him of bloat obviously hasn't had a look at this story (or any of his short fiction for that matter).
**Shades again of Volyova's Spider Room on the Nostalgia for Infinity in Reynolds' Revelation Space universe.
***Thus perhaps a bit too neatly solving the problem of how a zero-less science and society would someday achieve faster-than-light travel, but I don't care. It's awesome. Did I mention it's Mongols in Space? It's Mongols in Space, people. Drop everything and take the time to listen to Dan Carlin's awesome multipart podcast on the Wrath of the Khans and imagine all of that in space, minus the diminishing/loss of empire bits. Would I want to live in that universe? Hell no. I wouldn't have been allowed to grow up, most likely. But I can admire them from afar, especially their women (Borte!). And cheer them on. And stuff.

A case is made for ditching the smog-producing automobile in favor of a greener transportation method in this 'Bikes Provide an Answer' infographic.
Using statistics compiled from the Healthcare Management Degree, the chart shows that riding a bike everyday can dramatically reduce not only one's carbon footprint but one's waistline as well. The chart sites that in the first year of riding a bike daily, the average person will lose around 13 pounds.
Furthermore, it is also mentioned that 70 per cent of the car trips taken by Americans are less than 2 miles in length -- meaning that one could easily get to their destination on a bike in around 10 minutes. If that isn't enough motivation to switch from a four-wheeled ride to a two-wheeled one, the graph also mentions that bikes get people to their destinations 50 per cent faster than cars do when commuting during rush hour.

New Ross Town Archives
I know I know I haven't written to you all in a while. Let me tell you what I've been up to – pavement pounding introducing myself to local businesses and prominent people in New Ross. I ended up in a local politician's office to whom when I showed my portfolio to he said "you'd appreciate seeing the town archives" he promptly picked up his mobile and organised it for me.
What a privilege it turned out to be. I was taken aback at the beauty of the lettering. The illumination of the capital letters. Imagine what it would have been like way back when the printing press and computer fonts didn't exists. A scribe with a simple dip pen and produced the most amazing work. I have to say that I was totally in awe of the The Original Town Charter which dates back to the 14th Century. But then, when I was given the meeting books well from a Calligraphers point of view I was in "happy land." Looking at the lettering and the ornamentation.
As you can imagine I walked away inspired
From Sherwood to Templenacroha
Having moved from Sherwood a few weeks ago – it became really apparent how reliant I've come to rely on the internet. I found myself living here in a little place called Templenacroha which I've yet to get to know with no access to the internet & the only way I could get always on broadband was via satellite & that is just so expensive! Anyway, I'm back on-line via mobile internet and am I thankful or what! Back to being able to Skype with my friends and family. And of course – back to the all important Social Networking.
Now as you know I'm new to the world of blogging I am trying to learn how to & its proving to be quite the dilemma….it seems to more articles I read the more confused I'm becoming – I thought it was going to be like writing an essay or an article for the local newspaper – but it seems not…so much more to it – like SEO and submitting it to various places like Stumbleupon, Digg etc it's all so confusing……
So here I sit wondering what to write about? Should it be about my next project? My wonderful visit to the Wexford Tourist Board? Craft? or Calligraphy? More questions & no answers – that'll be me dizzy and ditzy all at the same time…..til next folks
I am Calligrapher based on the borders of County Carlow and Wexford, snuggled on hills of the Blackstairs a few minutes from the Nine Stones and the River Slaney (great Salmon & Trout fishing — so I hear). And if that isn't enough a stones throw from the Village of Clonegal where the famous Huntington Castle is with its amazing Yew Tree Avenue and not too far way is Altamount Gardens. All between the Village of Ballon and the town of Bunclody.

Ceres! We're going to Ceres! NASA's Dawn spacecraft is enroute and should arrive in February 2015. Considering we've known about it for over 2 centuries and it 3 times closer than Saturn and 10 times closer than Neptune and their moons, I've always been very surprised to see the fuzzy images we have of it.
I used to Wolfram Alpha to do a comparison (as well as to test WA and it's interpretive capabilities) and it summarized it quite nicely.
Check the size comparison and the images generated:

Why See NF - Nate Feuerstein?
A New Brand Of Christian Hip Hop
Rather than letting a broken childhood fuel an endless cycle, rapper Nate Feuerstein, known as NF to his fans, turned to a higher power and channelled his emotions into his music, leaving his mark on both the Christian and mainstream hip hop scenes in the process. Following its Billboard Chart-topping release in 2017, the rapper is heading out on the Perception World Tour, bringing hit singles Destiny, If You Want Love and Remember This to the stage.
Feuerstein's unique sound exists at the intersection between religious music and well crafted, no-holds-barred hip hop. His dynamic flow is influenced by his own heartfelt emotions and personal spiritual experiences, proving Christian music isn't all just upbeat Hillsong anthems but that it can be real and raw too. With a sense of conviction, NF takes to the mic with a magnetic sense of ferocity that's rewriting the worship songs handbook with every confessional syllable.

Performance date: 30 October 2018

Active backup management. The SSD that stores the VSTs and samples gets two backups (regular HDDs), one is done weekly and is on the machine and the other is done monthly and stored "off site".
I figure failure of all *three* is not terribly likely, and with storage being so cheap these days it's not too painful to have a lot of redundancy. I don't think I even need physical media with this strategy (which itself is not 100% future proof...)
Plink Floyd wrote:One might just back up to a thumb drive which is kept in one's desk @ werk. If one rotated two of them, that would be a very cost effective "off site" storage scheme, of which someone might have the discipline to do it, but this one probably doesn't.

Last month I spoke about the advantages of having a budget and how I've noticed that so many people these days don't have one. This month, I thought I would share the questions I ask myself when I look at my budget and also some that I ask my clients when they need help getting their expenses down on paper …
We need to make a list of every commitment starting from the number one priority i.e. your mortgage or rent. Next priority is paying off any debts such as a vehicle loan or credit cards, then utilities, insurances, vehicle expenses, and any (what you would consider) non-negotiable items. Things such as children's swimming lessons, income protection, gym membership etc. After that we need to consider groceries and of course entertainment. There is no point in being alive if all we are doing is working to pay debts. Allow a reasonable amount of money for a sensible amount of luxury spending, such as dinner, movies or a weekend away. Lastly and I believe most importantly, at least 20% of your income should go to a separate savings account. This account should only be used for emergency situations, big ticket items such as a new fridge and\or family holidays.
There are other things to consider when creating a budget also. If you can afford it, Income Protection is a very important insurance overlooked by the masses in Australia. If you think budgeting week to week is difficult on your current income, imagine if that income ceased.
There are many positives to having a budget. It forces you to examine where you're spending your money, and more importantly question what is important and what is frivolous spending. This alone can help you curb your ways and start saving money. It's amazing how prudent you become when you limit your grocery spending. Here are some other ideas to help you save the dollars:
- Grocery shopping on line – limits impulse purchases OR write a shopping list and stick to it. Buy staples in bulk.
- Consider Insurance & Utility comparing companies for better rates.
- Are you over insured? Health insurance often covers you for things you may not need. If you're young, hip replacement surgery shouldn't be on your list. If you're older, maternity options are not needed.
- Negotiate rates with your credit card supplier – consider closing the account so you cannot use any available balance and just focus on paying it off.
- Limit take-out and restaurant visits. If you're after a quick meal, consider easy and fast recipes or cook some extra sauces and freeze for pasta on a late night home.
- Turn lights off.
- Buy quality products that will last. Often it is a better investment to spend a little bit extra and have the product last much longer. This applies to anything from clothing to white goods.
- Wash the car at home.
- Buy used when you can. I love to visit our local Sacred Heart Mission store. It's full of fantastic, cheap finds! The kids love it too.
- Leave the car at home. Walk or cycle more.
- Gym membership. Do you go often enough to consider the monthly charges reasonable or should you just pay as you go?
- Bring your lunch to work – this could save you up to $60 a week!
- And my favourites, ALWAYS ask for fees to be waived or if you're buying more than one of the same product, ask for a discount.
Remember, money isn't everything and I don't believe we should be so frugal and thrifty that we miss out on the fun things in life but we all know life is much easier when you're debt free. Being debt free starts with a good, achievable and manageable budget. Start one today, focus on reducing your debt and before you know it, you're on your way to that beach holiday without any use of credit. Bella Vita!
