The Historical Association of Lewiston's September program is titled "The Niagara Gorge and its 12,000 Year Story." The presentation will take place at 7 p.m. Thursday, Sept. 22, at the Lutheran Church of the Messiah Fellowship Hall, 915 Oneida St., Lewiston.
Dr. Paul Young, professor emeritus and Koessler Distinguished Professor at Canisius College, will present on the Niagara Gorge.
Event organizers said many, even in Western New York, are unaware Niagara Falls and its gorge have been shaped by the tremendous forces of past glaciers and river systems into five distinct sections. Each has its own characteristics and related stories, including whirlpool reversal, the other left-behind falls along the Niagara escarpment, rock structures transported from both the northern and southern hemispheres, coral beds, dry falls and glacier Lake Tonawanda.
Young was born in Western New York and is an alum of Buffalo State College, Canisius College and the University of Georgia. As a navy veteran, his tour of duty took him to many Pacific Islands and, later through his travels, gave him the opportunity to expand his interests in global science while developing a deeper appreciation for his local environment.
For years, he has researched, viewed and photographed many facets of Niagara Falls and its gorge. This focus has culminated in the publication, "The Falls, Survivor of the Ice Age."
In addition to his teaching, Young has led many natural science field trips and tours to the falls for students, professional staff and community groups.
This event is free and open to all, and refreshments will be served.

Wi-Fi Positioning Comes to Mac, WinMobile
May 29, 2007
Skyhooks Loki client tries new operating systems and gets a JavaScript API for programmers.
Even the Windows XP version of Loki has an update (it's now in version 2.0) that will save even more screen real estate by moving Loki from the toolbar to a browsers bottom status bar if the user desires. You can show just what you want, or hide the toolbar completely, says Skyhook CEO Ted Morgan. It only comes up when you want to use it. He says the Mac version will be similar.
The Windows Mobile version is its own application for doing search and finding directions based on your location as determined by the WPS. If youre not near an AP or APs that are part of the WPS database, the service defaults to using your current IP address to locate you.
The Loki API and documentation will be free to any developers, as are the toolbars and Windows Mobile application to users.
Morgan says Skyhook and the browser makers at Mozilla and Opera are among the founding members of a new group called LocationAware.org, which he calls a standards body to build location awareness into browsers in much the same way cookies are built in today, be it through GPS, WPS or whatever may come along.
The WPS database of access points used to pinpoint a persons location has grown to cover 70% of U.S., Canadian and Australian population centers. International expansion is continuing, specifically in cities like London, Amsterdam and Barcelona in Europe -- Tokyo, Seoul and Hong Kong in the Asia Pacific region are coming soon. We have tremendous use overseas, claims Morgan, even though one third of such users are probably relying on the IP address for the locations. The Loki toolbar has been downloaded 300,000 times, and used for locations lookups four million times, since its debut in March 2006. Most people just install it and keep it running, says Morgan. Recently, WPS functionality was also built into a plug-in for the AIM instant messaging software, letting you map the location of people on your buddy list.

In many and reportless places
We feel a Joy --
Reportless, also, but sincere as Nature
Or Deity --
It comes, without a consternation --
Dissolves -- the same --
But leaves a sumptuous Destitution --
Without a Name --
Profane it by a search -- we cannot
It has no home --
Nor we who having once inhaled it --
Thereafter roam.

Singer Sharon Jones has embarked on a gruelling course of chemotherapy after undergoing surgery as part of her cancer battle, but insists she is feeling "stronger and more focused" about her recovery every day.
The soul star and her band the Dap-Kings had to scrap a number of shows this summer (13) after the frontwoman was diagnosed with a tumour on a bile duct. She underwent an operation to remove the growth back in June (13), and she recently started a course of further treatment to help her beat the disease.
Jones has opened up about her ongoing battle in a post on her Facebook.com page, revealing she is determined to get better so she can get back on stage.
She writes, "I've been spending my time recovering in a beautiful spot in upstate New York, and I really couldn't be luckier to have such amazing support from my friends, family and fans.
"Although my surgery to remove my cancer in June was successful, my doctor recommended that I do a 6 month course of preventative chemotherapy, which I started a month ago. I wish I could say it's been a breeze, but this is looking to be the most challenging part yet.
"Thankfully, I'm feeling stronger and more focused on getting back out on stage every day."

Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has been charged by the Football Association (FA). The 53-year-old kicked a bottle in the 27th minute in his team's 1-1 draw with West Ham United on Sunday. The Portuguese was sent to the stands by referee Jon Moss for his actions.
Mourinho has until 18:00 GMT on December 1, 2016 to respond to the charge. This is Mourinho's second charge in two months after he was sent off against Burnley in October. The former Chelsea, Inter and Real Madrid manager, received a one-match ban and was fined $9,900 for the particular incident, as reported by BBC.
Mourinho was also fined $62,000 in October for his comments on referee Anthony Taylor ahead of United's match against Liverpool at Anfield.
ALSO READ: Virgil van Dijk to Old Trafford latest update
"Jose Mourinho has been charged following Manchester United's game against West Ham United on Sunday. It is alleged his behavior in or around the 27th minute of the game amounts to improper conduct." The FA official website reported.
The Manchester United manager now faces a "non-standard charge". This will give an independent regulatory commission the power to inflict a heavier punishment.
The man from Setubal, Portugal could face a three-game suspension because of his previous misconducts. However, a stadium ban is unlikely at the moment, according to ESPN.
If a three-match ban is imposed on the Red Devils boss, then he will sit on the sidelines when his team faces Tottenham Hotspur at Old Trafford in the Premier League on December 11, 2016. He will also miss his team's trips to Crystal Palace and West Bromwich Albion.

Senior Manchester United officials unhappy with Mourinho's behavior
Manchester United's senior officials are reportedly unhappy with manager Jose Mourinho's behavior. The 53-year-old was hit with another FA charge in recent times and could face a three-game ban.
Ed Woodward, executive vice-chairman of United is unlikely to take any action against the Old Trafford boss. However, senior officials of the board are concerned with the recent attitude displayed by the Portuguese.

You Have Been Cutting Watermelon ALL WRONG! And THIS VIDEO Will Show You Why!
It's Saturday night and you are scratching your head, thinking how to spend the time. And then your friends call suggesting a night out at your place.
You are so excited that you tend to yell at the top of your voice. You run to the refrigerator with overwhelming enthusiasm, only to find it empty.
Yeah, I understand that feeling mate. And that's why I have come up with one kickass idea which doesn't put you in one hell of an embarrassing situation I was in.
I don't know about you, but I despised watermelons all my life. But that was until I learnt the technique of cutting watermelon from my mother. Ever since then, my relationship with watermelons changed forever. One of the first thing or rather a tip I have learned from her was how to cut watermelon in uniform pieces. And boy, must I add that not only is it visually attractive, but the technique also makes eating the fruit easier.
So, if you want to enjoy the best of watermelons in the best possible way, then you should know this trick too! Read ahead to find out more…
1. Placement And Precision:
Place your watermelon on a flat wooden plank. Make sure it's well balanced and stationary. Now with the help of a kitchen knife, cut the fruit into two equal halves. Ensure the cut is precise and you do it in one go.
2. The Horizontal Cut:
Place one of the halves on the wooden plank, the fruit part facing down. Using the kitchen knife, cut the watermelon horizontally, ensuring all the cuts are equidistant to each other.
3. The Horizontal Cut (Part 2):
Rotate the wooden plank ninety degrees and repeat step 2.
4. The Repetition:
Repeat all the above steps with the other half.
There you go! A neatly sliced watermelon at your disposal, which adds a dose of ecstasy not just to your tongue, but also to your eyes!
Watermelons are good. Watermelons are healthy. And watermelons are awesome.
Yeah. Yeah. And yeah. Agreed.
But sometimes, food engulfed with nutrition and no taste, might be boring. Especially when you are with your friends, right?
If you disagree, it's alright. But if you agree, then I have something for you!
How about adding a dash of tequila or vodka to your watermelon?
*A Naughty Wink*
This is how you can make your favourite drink and watermelon the best of friends!
- Use a small knife to gently cut out a round hole into the watermelon. This creates something like a plug.
- Use a corkscrew or something similar to pull out the watermelon plug, leaving a good sized hole inside the watermelon.
- With the help of a teaspoon, scrape some of the flesh out of the hole. This is to make some space for your drink to flow through the fruit. Make sure you don't poke the melon too much, or it might develop cracks.
- Pour about one cup of your booze into your watermelon. Keep pouring at a slow and steady pace, leaving the drink to sink into the fruit.
- Replace the plug of watermelon into the fruit.
- Place the watermelon with the plug side up into the refrigerator for a couple of hours. This helps the spirits to percolate through the insides of the melon and cool it.
Once done, slice, serve, and Enjoy!
So what are you waiting for? Go get a melon and have a gala time with your friends! Do let us know if how you have liked this article in the comments below!

On October 1, I attended the Minnesota State High School League's public hearing on the proposed policy that would allow transgender athletes to play on the team that best aligns with their gender identity. Ultimately, this policy would be one step in recognizing and respecting a community that dominant culture seeks to isolate and silence.
Link to the policy draft: (http://cplaction.com/wp-content/uploads/TransgenderPolicySECONDREVISION9-9-14.pdf)
During the hearingworkshop, many people voiced their opinions about the policy. Some of the opinions were valiant, courageous cries for acknowledgement, while others were drenched in fear and prejudice. I was particularly dismayed by one specific testimony. A passionate woman had organized a herd of high schoolers as a visual aid to support her opposition of the policy. At the end of her declaration, she singled out the group of students that had been standing along the wall and asked how many girls were scared/uncomfortable of showering with someone who was a different sex than them. Each high school girl that was lined up against the wall raised her hand.
As my filming partner and I were getting ready to leave, the group of high schoolers that were lined up against the wall walked past us. In the snippet of conversation that I caught, the phrase, "Man, I don't want to shower with one of those people," landed in my ears.
At first I was in shock of the amount of comments that were thrown around the room that reflected so many oppresive status-quo ideals. This put me into fury after the public hearing: Why do people have to make others that are different than them feel small? Why do people feel the need to hurt others? Why is it hard to see everyone as valuable, sharing a piece of the same humanity?
Being a racially mixed person who presents female, I face my own oppressions as I walk outside my house everyday and into the world. However, I have the privilege of appearing as well as identifying as female. At birth, I was told that I was a girl, and I, in fact, strongly identify with being female. And, luckily for me, society approves of my presentation. When I meet someone new, I don't have to wince every time they don't see who I am. I don't have to remind them to talk to me using she, her, hers pronouns. I don't have to question seemingly simple, everyday actions such as which bathroom I should use and what clothes I should wear that will reflect my gender. I don't have to wonder if they will see me for who I truly am when it comes to my gender. However, not everyone has this privilege. For trans* folks, it is a battle against the raging current of societal norms to be true to themselves as well as the people around them. Although they may be victorious in taking the first step towards personal truth, turmoil can continue as they are confronted by peers, adults, certain religious groups, etc. who treat them as less than human. Shared public spaces that appear to be safe also become minefields; areas that need to be strategically navigated lest a fatal explosion occurs.
As the wise Ricardo Levins Morales says, "Trauma is an indicator that people are forced to believe an untrue narrative about who they are… In order to combat this, a new story about the person experiencing trauma has to be told." In statistics provided by the National Center of Transgender Equality (2011), 82% of transgender youth feel unsafe at school. Further, only 54% of the transgender students who are bullied actually report the bullying. However, only a third of these reported incidents are actually addressed by the school: it is clear that voices are being silenced. This means the system is failing these students. School is a shared public space where no one deserves to be fearful, yet these students cannot walk the halls of their schools with a sense of security in who they are. This means transgender youth are experiencing a form of trauma whenever they gather the courage to walk through the doors of their school in their reclaimed identity. A part of this fear and trauma comes from the fact that there is a lack of acceptance and acknowledgement in shared gender spaces. In implementing the proposed policy, a bridge for this need of recognition would be created. As a first, though hopefully far from last, step, it would provide a gateway for transgender youth to lead on telling their own narrative of their humanity.
The proposed policy has some gaps in it that hopefully will be worked out over time to make it even better for trangender youth, however it is an important beginning towards justice in our school systems. If passed, the policy would be one step in bringing human dignity, security, and respect to those who are most in need of it by providing a shared space that is acknowledging and affirming of gender for all students. Therefore, I strongly push the MSHSL to pass this policy on December 04.

Understanding of the concept of enemy presents us with numerous paradoxes. An enemy at one and the same time partakes of so many opposites: internal and external reality, preoedipal and oedipal, other stranger and known-familiar, a part of us and yet not. These seeming contradictions and paradoxes lead to the understanding that Ashoka suggests, namely that "enemy" is a boundary concept, or a transitional entity, which occupies an exceedingly important intrapsychic position and social role where so many human attributes and dilemmas come together, where so many polar dimensions and entities actually meet. To understand what an enemy is, is to understand what is essentially human. Here's the third and final part of an in-depth research on enemy and enmity exclusively for Different Truths.
Is it possible to find ways of talking and communicating with an enemy? I should like to finish with an attempt, almost certainly frustratingly partial and insufficient, to draw some tentative conclusions from what has been surveyed so far. After analysing the wish of nations to obtain their interests and passions, in his "Thoughts for the Times on War and Death," Freud (1915) poses the following dilemma: "It is, to be sure, a mystery why the collective inpiduals should in fact despise, hate and detest one another — every nation against every other—and even in times of peace. I cannot tell why that is so. It is just as though when it becomes a question of a number of people, not to say millions, all inpidual moral acquisitions are obliterated, and only the most primitive, the oldest, the crudest mental attitudes are left". Freud finishes on a sober note, with an appeal for greater honesty and openness in relationships among people, and mainly with the authorities, which he expects will lead toward a turning point. I believe that this hope is no longer so simplistically held and shared by all of us. It has been the bitter lesson of this century to come to distrust authority and to come to know its irrational and dangerous sides. Indeed, even the psychoanalytic establishment has not escaped criticism for its monolithic stance and what is perceived as the authoritarian nature of its inner political structure.
Freud feels that it is the inpidual who can be approached and understood, while it is the group, and particularly the large group, that makes human behaviour so primitive and irrational. Some advances have taken place in our understanding since Freud's lines were written at the time of the First World War. I suggest that enmity is indeed an inherent part of the inpidual human psyche; but enmity is also on the boundary between internal and external reality. It takes on its familiar meaning and shape as a social phenomenon when we meet and work with it at the group, system, and organisational levels. These levels, therefore, can no longer be ignored by psychoanalytic thinking. This brings us back briefly to the dynamics of the large group. From all we know about these processes, even under the relatively controlled conditions of a working conference and with the participation of consultants, there can be only one conclusion: Large-group processes, with their fluctuations, regressions, and fragmentations, are highly lawful and regular. This is so even when the participants have had the benefit of previous experience and impressive educational and cultural achievements.
Therefore, if our aim is rational, enlightened political activity, large- group settings and events must be avoided and prevented as much as possible.
Revolutionary Upheavals
It has been recently demonstrated again that large masses of people can be instrumental in changing the political order. But it is equally true that such mass movements and revolutionary upheavals may go in many directions; they do not always lead to freedom and democracy. There were large crowds and mobs involved in so many revolutions—in France, Russia, Nazi Germany, China, and more recently in Eastern Europe. The phenomenon of mass uprising is intertwined with popular visions of democracy; it provides, however, no assurances of the eventual outcome nor any protection against the danger of being manipulated by sinister powers to their own ends.
Wherever possible, and especially where negotiations take place, small groups should be preferred to large groups. This may well be true also for gatherings that are not manifestly (yet are implicitly) political, such as symposia and conventions. Negotiations between enemy parties to a conflict need not only the small-group format, however. They also require the clarity and firmness of boundaries that guard against premature exposure, which threatens to throw the process back into the large group.
The small-group format in itself is, however, no guarantee for dialogue. Indeed, the need for dialogue is often glibly and unthinkingly advanced. Our own professional and personal biases (I am speaking as a psychoanalyst) are intertwined here in ways that may produce complications or even fallacies. We are trained in dialogue, and our deep belief in and commitment to discourse and discussion may sometimes border on a magical belief in the power of words. We tend to forget the tremendous importance of the psychoanalytic setting, with its combination of strict boundaries and openendedness, in enabling, shaping, and contributing to the creation of dialogue, and then only after expending much time and tremendous efforts. Having witnessed attempts at dialogue with "labelled enemies" in professional group settings, I have been amazed at the degree and speed with which such sessions can become confrontational and coercive. Dialogue is based on the ability to recognise and respect the other's essential and rightful difference; this is diametrically opposed to regarding him or her as an enemy. We may be able to extend ourselves and even accord dialogic consideration to an opponent or an adversary.
It is much more difficult to do this with a declared enemy, whose very designation as such immediately places him or her beyond the dialogic pale. These dialogic considerations are related to the differentiation made above between preoedipal and oedipal enemies. The distinction between these two enemies was seen to be a function of the developmental levels at which they are encountered, whether the encounter is primary and takes place in childhood, or a later, adult-life derivative. These differences account for an enemy with whom we can and do have discourse, as against one with whom we cannot and do not. A closer look into this differentiation reveals, however, that the different levels at which we experience our oedipal enemy are not confined to the mere verbality of the exchange, but extends to the wider implications and connotations of words and symbols.
Symbol formation is often approached from the vantage point of either the intrapsychic, emotional, and cognitive development that enables it, or the extra-inpidual, cultural framework that contains and transmits these symbols as cultural artifacts and into which the inpidual is induced. The area in which cultural symbols are created and used is, however, better conceived as a "third" area, which is, in Winnicott's (1971) sense, the area of shared experience that gives rise to play and creativity. This third area, which is indeed where culture comes into being, is the transitional space that envelops the mother-child dyad just as it is being created by them.
Situated between the inner world and the external one, between subjective objects and
realities and objective ones, it provides an experiential bridge that allows both sides to become alive, to be experienced as psychologically real and viable. This is also, however, the juncture where the oedipal constellation comes together with the notion of transitional space: both are founded on experience, recognition, and encounter with a "third" entity. Oedipal development requires, above all else, the capacity for recognition of a third, another whose existence is on the boundary of the earlier established dyadic oneness and mutuality.
Recognition of Other-stranger
Recognition of the other-stranger can be the source of anxiety and apprehension, in which the stranger is the enemy. If, however, the other, or the "third," is experienced as being created and coming to life on this boundary, occupying a space and sharing a frame that partakes of the communality of the dyad, he will be related to positively, as an object of curiosity and exploration.
How does this come about? It seems that the dyadically created transitional space is able to accommodate a "third," which is experienced as an intrinsic part of it, when he or she shares and participates in the framework that enables the transitional space in the first place — a frame of creative illusion and shared symbols. The accommodation of the "third" is, therefore, greatly assisted and transacted by symbols of various kinds.
Symbols, by their very nature, are experienced as such a "third"—a semiotic frame that is neither entirely of the self, nor of the mother-environment, but that exists both separately and yet together with the united and merged self-object dyad. Thus symbols—words and language, sounds and gestures, bodily expressions and cultural artifacts—are all part of the wider framework we call culture, of a "third world," encompassing self and other and lending experience its special form, content, and means for further developmental transmutation. It is in this sense that we can have discourse with an oedipal enemy: We share with him not merely a language, but the comforting and enabling experience of the shared frame created out of common language and cultural symbols. Although to the observer this may appear to be a discourse between two sides, in actuality it takes place between two, who are aware of their common "third leg"— the wider framework they share and adhere to, and even invest with authority. We may thus claim that oedipal experience has its roots in much earlier developmental periods, in which the "third," or other, though not yet a real partner, nevertheless exists as a potential presence on the boundary of shared experience, where such potential transitional phenomena are created.
Preoedipal development, in this sense, refers to an absence of or disability in having this creative experience, and being doomed to a mere "two-person" existence, and therefore to splitting and projection, and to having enemies with whom one cannot share anything, let alone have a discourse. The actual importance of the third in preventing movement toward splitting may be observed in small groups, where the presence of a consultant who takes up the role of such a third contributes significantly to the management of projections that lead to breakdown of discourse.
Political Negotiations
The centrality of the role of the third in political negotiations between enemy parties—transforming preoedipal, nontalking enemies into oedipal enemies capable of discourse—is vividly illustrated by the part played by the United States in the peace talks between Israel and its Arab neighbours, which reaches far beyond that of an arbiter or courier. It is striking that in all of the White House peace ceremonies, beginning with the Camp David Accords and down to the latest declarations of peace with the PLO and Jordan, the pictorial image is always a triadic one, in which the presence of the president of the United States provides the significant third side of the triangle that enables the Israeli and Arab leaders to shake hands. It is unrealistic to make prescriptions for advancing societies from one developmental level to another. Such complex movement takes place and is measurable only over protracted historical time units.
One wonders, however, whether in the shrinking universal village of our times changes may be induced that might contribute to the creation of common, cross-cultural semiotic and symbolic frames of reference, which could in turn foster a sense of shared actual frames of reference. The development of common languages, symbolic systems, and cultural heritage can contribute much to the alleviation of unresolved enmities.
Modern technology and communication media have already gone a long way toward creating certain collective cultural vistas. Perhaps more could be done. However, this is in no way a utopian dream of messianic peace and millennium. It is merely a step, of limited potential, toward turning preoedipal into oedipal enemies. If it is true, as Volkan says, that "our current knowledge of human nature tells us that enemies are here to stay", then perhaps the best we can hope for is to change the enemy from his preoedipal position of total badness and evil to the oedipal level of rivalry and competitiveness coupled with love and affection, and thus from the enemy to whom we do not talk to the enemy with whom we can and do talk.
The current peace talks between Israel and the Arabs provide an example of how actual contact contributes to the reduction of strangeness and projections. Yet contact will probably produce new and unforeseen difficulties and in itself is no guarantee of the disappearance of enmity and the triumph of reason and peace. Many other factors interact with and activate the psychological ones.
Siblings who become enemies over piding an inheritance are not strangers, but the loss suddenly revives old anxieties of shortage, lack of supplies, and fantasies that there may not be enough for all. We must be open to the entire range of realistic possibilities, including the emergence of new and insurmountable difficulties, as relationships with yesterday's enemies develop and deepen.
It seems that the understanding of the concept of enemy presents us with numerous paradoxes. An enemy at one and the same time partakes of so many opposites: internal and external reality, preoedipal and oedipal, other stranger and known-familiar, a part of us and yet not. These seeming contradictions and paradoxes lead to the understanding I suggested here, namely that "enemy" is a boundary concept, or a transitional entity, which occupies an exceedingly important intrapsychic position and social role where so many human attributes and dilemmas come together, where so many polar dimensions and entities actually meet. To understand what an enemy is, is to understand what is essentially human.
Relatedness to the Enemy
In closing, let me address once again the issue of distance and lack of it in our relatedness to the enemy. As Volkan (1986) has noted, the enemy tends to be our neighbour, who is closer and more similar to us than we care to admit, leading to narcissistic highlighting of minor differences in the service of differentiating ourselves from him. His closeness and similarity make the neighbour, however, a suitable target for externalisation and projection of the "bad" parts of ourselves in the first place.
Our ability to have discourse with an enemy is, therefore, related to the degree to which he can be defined clearly and is not too closely intertwined with our own self-definition. Distance, boundaries, and separateness make the task of discourse more manageable, though not necessarily more creative. Splitting, projective identification, identification with the aggressor, and similar regression-enhancing conditions make differentiation and inpiduation of ourselves and the enemy more difficult, rendering talking and discourse impossible. Perceiving the enemy as the preoedipal "other" leads to his dehumanisation and demonisation.
A more advanced, oedipal view of the enemy's "otherness," however, enhances the discourse. At the triangular-oedipal level of development, acceptance of the enemy's "otherness" is a concession to his humanness, to his being a part and a member of the same widely shared entity—the "third" presence of human cultural existence. Such communality, however, also paradoxically allows for the differentiation and inpiduation of persons and groups; it alone can ensure creative conflict resolution instead of fighting and destruction. Under suitable psychological and developmental conditions, "otherness" can provide a basis for novel and creative contact and intercourse replacing relatedness through fantasy alone, which can foster the wish to destroy and assimilate the enemy.
Truly creative discourse with the enemy can come only with our willingness to immerse ourselves in the "potential space" we both share, in which parts of the enemy and parts of ourselves are fused and intermingled. We may then be able to perceive, however briefly and fleetingly, the shared elements of our common humanity. One of the most creative acts we may ever be capable of is experiencing our enemy as a part of ourselves, while also recognising his existence in his own right, as separate and distinct from us.

Meditation reduces your risk of heart attack by half
The article discusses the heart-attack-reducing benefits of Transcendental Meditation (known as TM):
Stress is a major factor in heart disease and meditation experts say the technique can help control it. [People] with heart disease who practised Transcendental Meditation cut their chances of a heart attack, stroke and death by half, compared with non-meditating patients, the first study of its kind has found.
TM is significantly different from the kind of Buddhist meditation I practice and have written about, but it's becoming more and more obvious that this kind of practice is incredibly beneficial to both the body and mind.

Reporting from Washington — The Supreme Court gave a highly skeptical hearing Tuesday to government lawyers defending the key anti-corruption law that makes it a crime for officials to deprive the public of their "honest services."
In recent years, prosecutors have used the law to convict politicians, lobbyists and corporate executives of fraud, even when there is no proof that they pocketed money or took a bribe. But the law appeared to be in danger of being struck down entirely -- or scaled back to cover only kickbacks and bribes.
Throughout the two-hour arguments, the justices took turns suggesting that the law was too vague and open-ended and that it failed to spell out what was a crime.
Justice Antonin Scalia called the law "mush." He said it was like a law that said every "bad act" was a crime and let prosecutors and judges decide what constitutes a crime without warning ordinary citizens.

We all share a common malady, "For there is no distinction since all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God." (Romans 3:22-23) And what happens to one who dies in sin? "The wages of sin is death." (Romans 6:23) Hence, we must turn from sin. But that verse continues: "The wages of sin is death, but the free gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord." To receive this gift of eternal life in Heaven, we must turn from that sin. And if we truly love our brothers or sisters who are in sin, if we truly want them to get to heaven, we will invite them to turn from sin as well—we will admonish the sinner. Just as we come to know and share in His mercy as we turn from sin, so too we should share that mercy with others, and invite them to discover it themselves. These are our brothers and sisters—and Jesus Christ invites us to share with them from the mercies that we have received.
This Spiritual Work of Mercy is one we must be careful with, because in carrying it out we must be careful not to fall into sin ourselves. "You hypocrite, remove the wooden beam from your eye first; then you will see clearly to remove the splinter from your brother's eye." Matthew 7:5 We should begin by admonishing ourselves who are sinners. A good way to do this is with an Examination of Conscience. There are two forms: the more thorough naming of sins, especially in preparation for Confession, as well as the nightly examen of St. Ignatius where we look back at the day to see the presence of God, and those times we stayed with Him, and those times we didn't.
Born in 1842, and dying just 14 years later from illness, Dominic holds the honor of being the youngest canonized saint without being a martyr because of the heroic virtue each and every day. He had a devout prayer life from a young age, praying each day and before every meal. If he arrived at church for daily Mass before it was opened, he would kneel outside and pray—even in the mud. He always applied himself well to his studies. He received his first communion five years early at that time—at the age of 7– because of how faith filled he was, and at that time one of the resolutions that he made was 'Death before sin.' It was something he took to heart for himself, but also for others. When other children he was playing with became vulgar in word or deed, he would admonish them to abandon it, and if they persisted, he would leave.

Quicksand Fix:We decided to fix my engine instead of using someone else's. I fixed the quicksand (for real this time) by adding the non impact force to the impact force (if impact is true). Here is the new snippet:
protected Vector calcContactForce(float theta) {
if(impact) {
if_contact = new Vector(theta, (float) (mass * velocity.magProj(new Vector((float) (theta + Math.PI), 1)) / dt)).add(new Vector(theta, sumForce.magProj(new Vector((float) (theta + Math.PI), 1))));
// impact plus notImpact
else {

Shahram Amiri hanged for leaking confidential information to US
|Shahram Amiri hanged for leaking confidential information to US, source via - google search, world news.
Shahram Amiri a nuclear scientist handed confidential and vital information to the United States is being hanged.
His whereabouts were kept hidden by Iran, Scientist father had believed that he was held at a secret detention center.
Mr. Amiri had disappeared in Saudi Arabia in June 2009 and resurfaced a year later in the United States.
Conflicting accounts said he had either been abducted or had defected at a time when international tensions over Iran's nuclear programme were at their peak.
He then returned to Tehran in July 2010 claiming that he was being kidnapped by CIA agents at gunpoint in the Saudi city of the medina.
Shahram Amiri said he was kidnapped but the U.S officials told that he was supposed to get $5 million for his help in understanding Iran's contested nuclear programme.
Shahram Amiri was convicted of spying charges in a death sentence case upheld by an appeals court.
Mr. Ejehi did not explain why authorities never announced Mr. Amiri's conviction, though he said Mr. Amiri had access to lawyers.
It is said that his family mistakenly believed he only received a 10-year prison sentence.
Shahram Amiri mother saying her son's neck bore ligature marks suggesting he had been hanged by the state.
A private satellite television channel based in London first reported Saturday that Mr. Amiri had been executed.

The Great Outdoors
North Dakota has a long heritage of hunting and fishing and outdoor recreation. Oil and natural gas producers share this stewardship and are working together with state and Federal regulatory agencies and sporting organizations to manage our wildlife and economic interests and ensure safe and rewarding seasons.
Horizontal drilling, itself, minimizes the footprint of oil and natural gas extraction, by reducing the number of wellpads that need to be created. With the ability to drill horizontally up to 10,000+ feet in "horizontal displacement", the practice allows for increased distance between well pads. In some cases 1,280 acres — or about 2 miles — can separate each well pad. This distance allows for less disruption to the above ground and natural environment.
Development companies follow strict permitting, mitigation and reclamation standards and follow the state, federal and local regulations. Additionally, many companies participate in wildlife and conservation programs, and provide grants and even partner with sporting groups.

Quick Reference
The systematic description of species by means of two names, both in Latin. The first name, with an initial capital letter, is that of the genus into which the species is placed, the second that of the species itself (e.g. the name Homo sapiens (human being) comprises the species sapiens within the genus Homo). This method of classification was introduced by Carolus Linnaeus. The precise procedures and rules for naming newly discovered animals are laid down in the International Code of Zoological Nomenclature.
