Social Justice at St. George's
"He has told you, O mortal, what is good; and what does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness, and to walk humbly with your God?" – Micah 6:8
St. George's has a long history of working for social justice. Since its founding in 1905, the congregation has been at the forefront of the movements for civil rights, fair housing, and the rights of women and LGBTI people. One of the first female Episcopal priests was a member of this parish (the late Rev. Page S. Bigelow, ordained in 1977). The Rev. Barry Stopfel, the first openly gay man to be ordained a deacon in the Episcopal Church, served as our rector from 1993 to 1999.
Over the years, St. George's has pursued social justice by helping to establish a number of independent organizations that work with the homeless, single parents and people coping with mental illness. St. George's also played an important role in starting and supporting The Oasis, the Diocese of Newark's ministry to LGBTI people.
The Absalom Jones Committee on Black History & Culture
Absalom Jones, ordained an Episcopal priest in 1802, was the first African-American to receive formal ordination in any denomination.
St. George's Absalom Jones Committee organizes events both educational and social focusing on Black history and culture.
Events are held the Sunday before Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. Day; during February for Black History Month as well as for the Feast of Absalom Jones (Feb. 13); and the Sunday closest to June 19 for "Juneteenth," the holiday commemorating June 19, 1865, when slaves in Texas learned they had been freed two and a half years earlier in the Emancipation Proclamation.

Detecting When Your Pet is Sick or Injured
While some illness or injuries may be obvious to the naked eye, there are many conditions that can be difficult to detect. Abnormal behaviors can be a strong indicator of impending health trouble. Knowing what to look for can help you determine if the signs are serious and when you need to seek help for your pet.
Survival of the Fittest
The ease in which you can detect illness or injury in your pet is largely dependent on what type of pet you have. Prey animals, such as birds, reptiles and rodents, are especially good at hiding symptoms. In the animal kingdom, sick or hurt animals are an easy food source for predators. Masking is a survival mechanism. Dogs and cats will also sometimes conceal symptoms for this same reason.
Know What's Normal for Your Pet
Knowing your pet's patterns—how they eat, drink, sleep, and play—can help you determine when illness or injury is an issue. Abnormal behaviors are clues that help you determine when something is wrong.
It's important to recognize that normal behavior in pets can sometimes mimic the symptoms of serious conditions. For example, refusing to eat an occasional meal may be normal for an otherwise healthy adult dog. However, an older dog that won't eat could be suffering from kidney or liver failure, dental problems, cancer or other disease.
Signs of Illness or Injury
While the list of symptoms is by no means complete, here are a few specific things you can watch out for:
- Sudden increase or decrease in activity levels
- Difficulty getting up
- Loss of balance
- Gagging
- Unexplained, sudden irritability
- Bad breath
When There Is a Problem
It goes without saying that any trauma, such as being hit by a car, needs to be addressed by a veterinarian. Internal injuries may not cause observable symptoms until it is too late.
There are some symptoms that should never be ignored, according to 1st Pet Veterinary Centers – Chandler. These include common sense things such as seizures, vomiting and/or diarrhea that lasts longer than one day, difficulty breathing and obvious wounds.
Less common serious symptoms include:
- Swollen belly
- Excessive eye redness
- Exaggerated startle reflex
- Excessive salivation
- Red, white, or blue gums
- Difficulty urinating
Even if you can't point to one specific symptom, your veterinarian may still be able to help. There are a wide variety of laboratory tests designed to detect even subtle changes in your pet's system. Seeking professional advice is always the best policy when it comes to protecting your pet's health.

Cosby Accuser Tamara Green Files Defamation Suit Against the Comedian
Because he and his legal team publicly declared her a liar.
Tamara Green, a retired California lawyer who accused Bill Cosby nine years ago of drugging and groping her in the 1970s, filed a defamation suit against the comedian Wednesday in Massachusetts. When Cosby and his legal team disputed the initial allegations and publicly branded her a liar in 2005, Green's reputation was impugned, according to the suit. Cosby's attorney had said: "Miss Green's allegations are absolutely false. Mr. Cosby does not know the name Tamara Green or Tamara Lucier [her maiden name], and the incident she describes did not happen. The fact that she may have repeated this story to others is not corroboration."
Attorney Joseph Cammarata told People that his client filed the suit this week to "restore her good name and reputation." The statute of limitations is one year for defamation, Cammarata said, so Green is suing the comedian for recent statements given to the Washington Post and Newsweek, which include: "This is a 10-year discredited accusation that proved to be nothing at the time, and is still nothing."
Green claims she's been suffering, both personally and professionally, because people now don't trust her. The lawyer added that other women Cosby has made public comments about are welcome to hop aboard the lawsuit, too.

A healthy diet plays a role in reducing symptoms of an overactive thyroid, especially since hyperthyroidism can cause increased appetite and weight loss because the excess thyroid hormone speeds up the body's metabolism. Certain nutrients added to the diet may also help relieve other overactive thyroid symptoms, which include irritability, insomnia, anxiety, and rapid heart rate, according to the University of Maryland Medical Center.

There's a valid reason to speculate that the A/C condenser of your Nissan Pickup is is torn once there is no refreshing air circulating from the vents. The Nissan Pickup A/C condenser works much like the radiator, since this also dissipates heat in the A/C cooling fluid to distribute cooler air all over the passenger compartment. Maximum air flow helps the condenser hasten the A/C process, preventing way too much tension on air-conditioning equipment.
The cooling fluid absorbs heat from the passenger compartment and later Nissan Pickups its way to the A/C condenser of your Nissan Pickup, which dissipates excess heat and turns the gas into liquid substance right before going straight into the A/C system expansive valve and streaming into the cabin. After driving for many miles, the A/C condenser of your Nissan Pickup, similar to other automobile components, will wear out as a result of regular usage and exposure to harmful elements. Ift the A/C condenser goes bust, get a fitting replacement for your Nissan Pickup.
Right here at Parts Train, we offer excellent promos online just like secure payment methods, on-time shipment, low rates, and trouble-free shopping schemes—purchase your Nissan Pickup A/C condenser from our shop to enjoy all of these. Our shop is your great source of reliable aftermarket selections care of Nissens, AC Delco, Behr, and many other reputable brands.

Well, this was quite insane. It seems Method's Gingi decided to one-up his fellow teammate Fragnance, who got the WF level 110 in Legion in 5 and a half hours. Well, it took Gingi, or rather Luigingi, 4 hours and 17 or so minutes to finish up Battle for Azeroth's leveling, in a team of three, along with Method's Meeres and Deepshades, using his boomkin:
If you want to see how exactly he did it, you can check out his full leveling video, but it seems they just went for really REALLY fast questing (obviously tested on beta) with no special shenanigans involved (at least that I could find at first glance):
Method's Gingi dinged 120 in 4 hours 17 minutes!
Obviously, Deepshades and Meeres dinged very quickly after Gingi, and here are their full streams of the leveling process as well, linked to the final minute - Deepshades, Meeres.
And some thanks from the WF Gingi himself:

World of Warcraft's latest expansion will be released on August 14, 2018 in all regions at the same time. You can find out more information in this post.
Pre-Purchase Battle for Azeroth
If you pre-purchase the expansion, you'll get a level 110 boost and gain early access to four Allied Races. The Digital Deluxe Edition comes with various goodies in all Blizzard games except Diablo. Collector's Edition from local retailers also comes with two novellas and you can read excerpts here. Character slots will be increased to 18 per server. Inactive accounts have been upgraded to Warlords of Draenor.
Game Version Pricing Buy Link Standard Edition $49.99 // 44.99 EUR EU / US Digital Deluxe Edition $69.99 // 59.99 EUR EU / US Pre-Purchase Deal [More Details]
New players that pre-order Battle for Azeroth will get Legion bundled with it for 49.99 USD // 44.99 EUR.
Allied Races
Highmountain Tauren, Lightforged Draenei, Nightborne and Void Elves are four Allied Races that can be unlocked before Battle for Azeroth goes live. Pre-purchasing the expansion won't unlock them though. They're gated behind Exalted reputation standing with Legion factions and achievements.
If you boost an Allied Race character to level 110, you won't be able to receive Heritage Armor.
Allied Races Unlock Requirements
Allied Race Requirements Highmountain Tauren Ain't No Mountain High Enough + Exalted with Highmountain Tribe Lightforged Draenei You Are Now Prepared! + Exalted with Army of the Light Nightborne Insurrection + Exalted with the Nightfallen Void Elf You Are Now Prepared! + Exalted with Argussian Reach Allied Races in Battle for Azeroth
Four Allied Races have been confirmed in Battle for Azeroth so far. The Alliance will be able to unlock Dark Iron Dwarves and Kul Tirans, whereas the Horde can convince Mag'har Orcs and Zandalari Trolls to join the faction. The aforementioned Allied Races will be gated behind Battle for Azeroth content and can't be unlocked before launch. We learned that Dark Iron Dwarves and Mag'har Orcs will be available first and both Allied Races are now available for playtesting on Beta and in order to unlock them, you must finish your faction's War Campaign in Battle for Azeroth. Blizzard confirmed that Blood Trolls will not be an Allied Race in the coming expansion.

Jaina Returns to Kul Tiras

From Mumbai, Maharashtra, India:
I am 19 and have type 1 diabetes. I have joined a gym and want to gain weight. I have purchased a supplement that has 1250 calories, 40 calories from fat, total fat 4.5 grams, 252 grams of total carbohydrates, 20 grams of sugar, 50 grams of protein. With more than 250 grams of carbohydrates per 334 gram serving, I would like to know if it is okay to take this. Are there any other good supplements to help me gain weight? The supplement I bought says it should not be consumed by pregnant women or those with diabetes.
The major problem with this plan is the amount of carbohydrate in the supplement. This is a large amount of carbohydrate to take and your insulin will have to be increased significantly to allow you to take it and not have high blood sugars. To do so should mean that you should work with your physician locally and let him/her know you are doing this so they can help you if your sugars go high.

Looks at how "The Simpsons" is created and the two way interaction of inspiration and influence it has with the real world. This book provides a detailed look at the birth and growth of "The Simpsons", from its creators and writers to its best episodes and hidden jokes. It offers an account of the effect the show has had around the globe. read more...
Astute, funny, literate, politically and culturally aware; in this analysis of The Simpsons, Chris Turner, a provocative new writer, dissects the world's favourite TV show - its genesis, past, characters and influence. Bart, Homer and Marge have entered the lexicon of iconic, global characters. Bart has the highest recognition factor amongst kids in the UK & US, way above that of Harry Potter. The British voted it their favourite TV programme ever. The Archbishop of Canterbury called it 'one of the most subtle pieces of propaganda around in the cause of sense, humility and virtue.' Yet The Simpsons is thoroughly subversive and irreverent. Bringing the savvy insight to The Simpsons that has been brought to publishing on global politics, the internet and the fast-food industry, Chris Turner looks at how teh programme is created and the unique two-way relationship of inspiration and influence it has with the real world. From Marge and moral values to Lisa and the environment, from Homer and consumerism to Citizen Burns and corporate villainy - this is the first book to be written that is as intelligent, subversive, wide-ranging and funny as the show itself. read less...

Hybrid statistical testing for nuclear material accounting data and/or process monitoring data in nuclear safeguards
The aim of nuclear safeguards is to ensure that special nuclear material is used for peaceful purposes. Historically, nuclear material accounting (NMA) has provided the quantitative basis for monitoring for nuclear material loss or diversion, and process monitoring (PM) data is collected by the operator to monitor the process. PM data typically support NMA in various ways, often by providing a basis to estimate some of the in-process nuclear material inventory. We develop options for combining PM residuals and NMA residuals (residual = measurement - prediction), using a hybrid of period-driven and data-driven hypothesis testing. The modified statistical tests can be used on time series of NMA residuals (the NMA residual is the familiar material balance), or on a combination of PM and NMA residuals. The PM residuals can be generated on a fixed time schedule or as events occur.

The Britney Spears Novel We've All Been Waiting for
Britney Spears might be on her way to becoming a rare quadruple threat: singer, dancer, actor, and ... author?
The Hollywood Reporter suggests Spears is close to signing a book deal with It Books, an imprint of HarperCollins. The trade paper speculates that the novel might be a fictionalized version of Spears' own experiences, similar to Lauren Conrad's L.A. Candy, a 2009 semi-autobiographical novel based on Conrad's time on The Hills.
Whatever the case, Britney would be in good company in her literary efforts—the Kardashians and Snooki also recently penned books. We await the inevitable movie version.

In the studio, I finished up the third outfit for Sew Expo. The first is the jeans with paisley t-shirt and the cardigan I showed yesterday. The second is the turquoise print pants with the grey top and turquoise scarf. AND... the third is...
... the McCall's 6515 pants with a black t-shirt, a black cardigan, and a scarf. I have two choices. First I sewed print with pink pair at left and knit the pink scarf to go with and I like the pants but it feels like they are demanding a lot of attention. I think a light colored t-shirt could help to detract from the busyness below. SO, just in case that feels too uncomfortable on the day, I sewed the blue pair - which are not nearly as blue in real life - and knit the blue-green scarf to go with. I may be more comfortable in this outfit but it really does depend on how I wake up that day. It's always nice to have choices.
Both pant fabrics are knit. The print is what I think is called scuba knit. Both it and the blue have lovely drape. The blue is a ribbed knit with a black background. It's the same fabric that I sewed the cardigan from and a pink dress last year. LOVE it. I should have bought a whole lot more.
I've sewn all of the garments for my three outfits except for the black cardigan and t-shirt shown above. I did sew a black t-shirt and when I washed it and hung it up to dry, it dried significantly larger. I have no idea what's up with that but it's currently in the dryer and if it comes out wearable, I will wear it and if it's too big, I won't and if it's too small, definitely not. I have another black t-shirt in the works but doubt if I'll get it finished before I go... but you never know. I have my hour this morning and that may be enough. It's mostly together.
Today is errands, laundry, and packing and tomorrow morning bright and early I'll be off. I need to be at the Seattle airport by mid afternoon to pick up my friend Caroline which shouldn't be a problem unless there are complications along the route. I won't be posting again until I get home. I'll take lots of pictures and get Caroline to take a few of me in my outfits and will "see you" next week. Probably Tuesday.
If you're at Sew Expo and see me wandering around, please say hi. I'd love to connect. Remember that my brain will be paddling a million miles an hour trying to figure out how we know each other so please help me out and clue me in on the connection. Thanks - LOL.
Talk soon - Myrna
Grateful - one more sleep

Michele Stillwell-Parvensky, email@example.com, (510) 663-1294
Alex Johnson, Executive Director of Children's Defense Fund-California, released the following statement in response to Governor Jerry Brown's 2015-16 budget proposal:
"The Governor's proposed budget fails to make the significant investments necessary to repair the tattered safety net and provide the critical support services children, particularly those living in poverty, need to survive and thrive. While the Governor's continued investment in K-12 education is a positive step, children also need health care, quality child care and development, and family supports to succeed in school.
Recession-era state budget cuts to critical health and human service programs continue to harm the state's most vulnerable children and families. We urge the Governor and the Legislature to do right by our children and protect and invest in essential safety net programs.
California cannot afford to continue allowing more than one in four children to grow up in poverty, harming their health and well-being and undermining their academic and future economic success. We can, and must, restore critical programs for California's children and families that have been decimated in recent years and invest in the quality child care, health care, income support and other programs that will help create a level playing field for all children."

Chris Vermeulen has been named as the replacement for Colin Edwards in the NGM Mobile Forward Racing team for the Le Mans round of MotoGP. Edwards broke his left collarbone in a crash during free practice at Estoril, and has decided after surgery to skip the French Grand Prix, and return at Barcelona in early June.
Vermeulen has been named as replacement for Edwards because of the Australian's prior experience on a MotoGP bike. Vermeulen spent four years in MotoGP with the factory Suzuki team, and spent all that time using Bridgestone tires. Vermeulen also has form at Le Mans: he won his only Grand Prix at the circuit, albeit in the pouring rain in 2007. After losing his ride with Suzuki in MotoGP, Vermeulen returned to the World Superbike series to race with Kawasaki.
A series of bad crashes left the Australian struggling with a serious knee injury, and having problems racing. Just as it looked like Vermeulen may have returned to full fitness, he was left without a ride in WSBK. To return to MotoGP, on a bike still in the midst of development, places a rather heavy load on the shoulders of one who has not raced for nearly 10 months.

Love is not all: it is not meat nor drink
Nor slumber nor a roof against the rain;
Nor yet a floating spar to men that sink
And rise and sink and rise and sink again;
Love can not fill the thickened lung with breath,
Nor clean the blood, nor set the fractured bone;
Yet many a man is making friends with death
Even as I speak, for lack of love alone.
What lips my lips have kissed, and where, and why, I have forgotten, and what arms have lain Under my head till morning, but the rain Is full of ghosts tonight, that tap and sigh Upon the glass and listen for reply, And in my heart there stirs a quiet pain For unremembered lads that not again Will turn to me at midnight with a cry. Thus in the winter stands the lonely tree, Nor knows what birds have vanished one by one, Yet knows its boughs more silent than before: I cannot say what loves have come and gone, I only know that summer sang in me A little while, that in me sings no more.
Time does not bring relief; you all have lied Who told me time would ease me of my pain! I miss him in the weeping of the rain; I want him at the shrinking of the tide; The old snows melt from every mountain-side, And last year's leaves are smoke in every lane; But last year's bitter loving must remain Heaped on my heart, and my old thoughts abide! There are a hundred places where I fear To go,--so with his memory they brim! And entering with relief some quiet place Where never fell his foot or shone his face I say, 'There is no memory of him here!' And so stand stricken, so remembering him!
[on going to Sunday school:] It looks like rain, and I hope it will rain cats and dogs and hammers and pitchforks and silver sugar spoons and hay ricks and paper-covered novels and picture frames and rag carpets and toothpicks and skating rinks and birds of paradise and roof gardens and burdocks and French grammars before Sunday school time.
I would I were alive again To kiss the fingers of the rain, To drink into my eyes the shine Of every slanting silver line, To catch the freshened, fragrant breeze From drenched and dripping apple-trees. For soon the shower will be done, And then the broad face of the sun Will laugh above the rain-soaked earth Until the world with answering mirth Shakes joyously, and each round drop Rolls twinkling, from its grass-blade top.

Douglas J. Feith began his career in government in 1975 as a staffer for storied Democratic Senator Henry "Scoop" Jackson. Like others who identified as "neo-conservatives," he later transitioned to the Republican party, serving in national security positions under the administrations of Ronald Reagan and George W. Bush. In the latter White House, he held the position of Undersecretary of Defense for Policy under Secretary of Defence Donald Rumsfeld between 2001 and 2005. In the capacity, he helped formulate the Pentagon's relations in numerous parts of the world, with a special focus on the Middle East in general and Iraq in particular.
Feith has since moved on to a combination of private consulting, scholarship, and policy research. He is director of the Center for National Security Strategies and a senior fellow at the Hudson Institute, a conservative public policy think-tank.
Majalla interviewed Undersecretary Feith in Washington.
Washington – Mostafa El-Dessouki
Q:During the Obama Administration, many voices in the Arab region raised concerns about White House policies toward Shi'ite Islamist militias backed by Iran, but felt rebuffed. What is your appraisal of those policies in retrospect?
A: Obama administration officials didn't highlight Islamist Shi'ite militias as much as they should have. The failure was rooted in the administration's desire for a US-Iranian strategic partnership.
The Iran nuclear deal is best understood as part of the effort to achieve that strategic partnership, which President Obama strongly desired and thought was possible. He knew that as long as there was a conflict over Iran's nuclear program, it would be impossible to create the strategic partnership. He pursued the nuclear deal not because he thought it was inherently very important, but because he had to push the nuclear problem aside to open the way to the strategic partnership.
At first, he thought the Iranians would make major concessions regarding their nuclear program. He made tough demands about their ending all enrichment and dismantling their facilities because he thought they would consent. He didn't understand the Iranians. When the Iranians said no, President Obama dropped those demands. Again, what he cared about was not the substance of the nuclear deal, but pushing the problem aside on whatever terms were possible. When the Iranians said no to a tough agreement, he agreed to a non-tough agreement.
Q: The Obama White House might have countered that a U.S.-Iranian strategic partnership could be helpful to the region.
A: If one's motivating idea is creating a U.S.-Iranian strategic partnership, then one discounts and underplays Iranian-backed terrorism through Hezbollah, and in Yemen, Gaza and elsewhere.
Q: You said that "President Obama didn't understand the Iranians." What is it that you feel he missed?
A: President Obama didn't understand the role that nuclear weapons played in Iranian strategy. He didn't understand their indirect tactics – how they manage to act both very aggressively and very cautiously. They are strategically clever. They export their revolution, but they do it in a carefully calculated fashion that is prudent and cautious. They prefer to use proxies rather than do violent things themselves.
President Trump must reconcile his desire to improve relations with Russia and his intention to confront Iran
And sometimes, they are not cautious. When they found that the Obama administration was willing to suffer serious humiliation, they couldn't restrain themselves from overtly humiliating the US with the Iranian fast boats in the Persian Gulf. That was purposeful, with malice aforethought. President Obama took it and swallowed it.
Downplaying the importance of Iran's use of proxies was another way that the Obama administration humiliated itself. This was partially conscious and partially a failure to understand the aggressiveness of Iran's strategy. It's obvious to the Saudis, for example, that Iran is working to encircle them through attacks and support for proxies in Iraq, Syria, Lebanon, Gaza, Libya, Yemen, Syria. Just put all those dots on the map – in the middle is Saudi Arabia. The Saudis naturally look at this as a strategic problem. They saw the Obama administration as oblivious to that strategic problem, unwilling to do anything to counter it.
Q: Your own experience in government reached a highpoint during the Bush Administration. Though its policies were different than Obama's in many ways, some in our region feel that it shared the same rightful focus on groups like Al-Qaeda, but was less inclined to aggressively counter Iran. Are they correct?
A: Under the Bush Administration, we never thought that the war on terrorism was just about al-Qaeda. The problem was al-Qaeda and other Sunni groups and Shi'ite groups. As I saw it, the problem is Islamist extremism, which has both Sunni and Shi'ite elements. Some of the Sunni and Shi'ite elements hated each other, but they were nonetheless allied against the West. Some people at CIA had problems grasping that ideological foes could be strategically aligned against a common enemy, but other Bush administration officials understood that, even though al-Qaeda is hostile to the Shi'ites, it can still cooperate with Iran against America. And al-Qaeda in fact did cooperate with Iran against America. The Iranians supported Hamas, and al-Qaeda — both Sunni groups, both ideologically anti-Shi'ite. The Iranians were happy to support them because they had common enemies in Israel, America, and Saudi Arabia.
Q: Now there is a new administration in Washington. In your view, has it already defined its policy vision with respect to Iran, or are such matters still in flux?
A: On many foreign policy matters, the president is a blank slate. He hasn't personally given a lot of thought to national security matters, so there's a major opportunity to influence his thinking. Saudi officials are presumably considering the three or four large strategic ideas they want to convey about their region. Those big ideas could help President Trump make sense of the many smaller issues in the region.
Mr. Trump has expressed notions about various Middle Eastern issues, but they are not quite consistent with one another. He said, for example, he wants to be tough against Iran, but he also wants to be cooperative with Russia, even though Russia is helping Iran in Syria. He's talked about being tough against ISIS but doesn't want to get entangled in Syria. If you pull together the various things he's said about Iran, Russia, Syria, safe zones, ISIS – they don't cohere.
President Trump is open to advice about how to defeat ISIS while pushing back on Iran and its proxies
Q: As Saudi officials begin to engage their new American counterparts, knowing what you do about the kingdom and its relations with the US, how do you think they will be perceived and received?
A: Saudi officials will, I assume, try to come up with a succinct way of looking at the Middle East strategically and try to convey this to President Trump. I would guess that they would say, "Mr. President, we consider ourselves your friends. We have been disturbed that the policies pursued by the Obama Administration didn't serve American interests and seriously damaged Saudi interests. We've tried to think through American strategic interests in the region, and we would like to present to you our thoughts in a way we think will serve the common interests of Saudi Arabia and the US in the region." President Trump will be focused not on Saudi interests but on U.S. interests. As he puts it, America First.
Q: How would such common interests be advanced?
The single largest strategic problem in the region is Iranian hostility, Iranian aggressiveness, and Iranian capability. When it views the Middle East, America should have as an organizing principle that the Iranian Islamic Republic, as both a nation and a revolution, for both traditional national reasons and for ideological reasons, is the region's major strategic problem. That's true from the points of view of the US and Saudi Arabia.
Some people may question whether Iran is a problem due to nationalism or due to Islamist extremism. These are not mutually exclusive. Persian aggressiveness is combined with this passionate Islamist ideology that Iran is looking to export. The Nazis were both German nationalists and they had their national socialist ideology, and it was the combination that made them such a danger. Even the Soviet Union became both a national and an ideological threat.
Point two, to address what's on President Trump's mind, one has to address ISIS. It would be a powerful message from Saudi Arabia, for example, to highlight the problem of this Sunni version of Islamist extremism. If Saudi leaders use the term he uses, I think he would listen. The key to fighting ISIS-type extremism is to work with Muslims who consider themselves the enemies of those extremists. And so that's where the Islamic Coalition comes in.
In the spring of 2003, there was a major terrorist attack in Saudi Arabia, and it shocked the Saudi government, which started a serious effort to get its own clerics to denounce terrorism and fight the problem at an ideological level. But there are not many people in the West who know about this. It occurred not after 9-11, but after the 2003 terrorist attack in Saudi Arabia.
A Saudi message to President Trump that speaks to the countries' shared interests could be described in terms of two main thoughts: One is Iran's strategic importance as a threat to the shared interests of the U.S. and Saudi Arabia — as evidenced by Iran's ambitions, hostility to the U.S., revolutionary ideology and its capabilities. The second big thought is, if you want to fight ISIS, a key element of the campaign should be countering its ideology. There are also military means to use against ISIS. But in addition a major component of the strategy should be an ideas campaign, the key to which is American cooperation with Muslims who want to oppose and fight ISIS.
Saudis could say they are ready to work with the US in a serious effort to attack Islamist extremism and denounce all terrorism – all attacks on ordinary people for political purposes. They could say they want to work as a partner with the U.S. They could specifically say that you, President Trump, criticized your predecessor for failing to name the enemy. We are willing to name the enemy and work with you against that enemy, because it's not only your enemy, but ours.
Again, I think President Trump lacks definite views on all aspects of Middle East policy. He's open to ideas. If Saudi Arabia sent to Washington someone like your foreign minister, who speaks English beautifully, and he sat with President Trump and his cabinet, he could effectively get these two messages across.
President Obama was repeatedly humiliated by Iran
To repeat: First, Iran is a strategic problem for both the US and Saudi Arabia. That could help the Trump administration develop a correct appreciation of what's at stake in Syria, where the Assad regime is Iran's best friend in the Middle East. Saudi Arabia could also provide an organizing principle for understanding Yemen, Libya, and Lebanon. Every administration needs the right organizing principles. Obama had an organizing principle, but it was a bad one: strategic partnership with Iran. President Obama shaped all his policies in the region around that organizing principle. Saudi officials would I think want to persuade the Trump administration to adopt a more sensible organizing principle regarding Iran.
Point two is about ISIS and Islamist extremism. The main message is that, to destroy ISIS, you need a combination of military and ideological means. And the key to the ideological effort is a partnership between the US and those elements of the Muslim world that want to fight against ISIS and the extremists.
Q: How do you see the Trump administration's views evolving with respect to the role of Iraq, and Shi'ite militias?
As for what the U.S. should do in Iraq, President Trump may be inclined to want to use local forces to the maximum extent possible against ISIS. Does that mean the U.S. should ally with pro-Iranian forces against ISIS? If President Trump is clear on the strategic importance of opposing Iran, he will not want to ally with pro-Iranian forces to fight ISIS. So the United States has to be both anti-Iran and anti-ISIS, even though Iran and ISIS are enemies. Sometimes our enemy's enemy is still an enemy for us. The United States should fight them both.
Q: In your view, what special assets can Saudi Arabia bring to the table with respect to the struggle against ISIS?
A: As noted, if the U.S. wants to destroy ISIS, it needs a military component to the campaign and an ideological component to the campaign. It wants to make sure ISIS isn't bringing up new people for recruitment and indoctrination. There's no country in the world that has a greater capacity than Saudi Arabia to counter the ideology of Islamist extremism. It has singular authority on questions of the interpretation of Islam. Leading Saudis can intensify efforts to promote principles against suicide bombing and the killing of ordinary people — all ordinary people. They could fight it in principle, and have leading clerics give religiously persuasive arguments against the tactic of targeting civilians for political purposes. That could help dry up the pools from which ISIS and other groups recruit and indoctrinate their fighters.
Saudi officials could volunteer to work in partnership with the US, using the coalition. It could be effective with President Trump to tell him there are new and good things that Saudi Arabia has never done before that it's ready to do with him in partnership. That would allow him to say that his negotiating skill and his leadership has led to the Saudis making statements and taking actions that they've never done before, and we're proud to be partners with the Saudis — and they're denouncing terrorism against Israel and against everybody else.

My New Hair Programme comes to Dundee
When starting my career in hairdressing, amongst other fundamentals I was taught how to sort and cut matted hair to make sure it was going root to tip* before hand tying the hair onto wefts which were then shaped into wigs before cutting and then shaping the wig into a wearable haircut, a very time consuming but very rewarding task.
*Remy hair is hair that has been obatined from a single donor, and all strands are the same length, from the root to the end. All the cuticle will run in the same direction as well. Remy hair differs from virgin hair mainly in that it may be and often is permed or coloured but most importantly retains the cuticle. There is no substitute for 100% authentic Remy hair.
Some time later I bought a business that also supplied wigs, so my interest was again piqued! As that business grew to three salons we wanted to move on into training and developing young hairdressers for our salons. We decided to give the wig business to the two people who had run it so well even before we took it over.
Much later when Maggie's Cancer Care Dundee opened we got fully involved with fundraising. For over ten years my involvement with cancer sufferers and survivors has given me great insight into how they feel and what I have found out during this time while advising and working on the "Maggies" fashion events was that hair is indeed very important to them. The experience is still with me, they are clients and I feel although I can't really fully understand what a cancer survivor/sufferer goes through I can give very practical advice and go through the journey with them.
When I did the "My New Hair" course two years ago I was once again taken by the new approach to wig consultation. Revisiting past ideas can strike gold when viewed through the brand new glasses of experience. Continual personal and professional experience brings me a renewed interest in helping those experiencing hair loss through medical reasons.
My New Hair are in Forte Beauty Clinic, Dundee, to deliver this course and as part of Freedom Hair Experiences continual commitment to producing talented, caring and empathetic hairdressers we are taking in this course.
When l did the course I was totally inspired by a long time hero of mine, Trevor Sorbie, however for me the platinum prize went to the talk by the McMillan Nurses. They spoke to us about how to look beyond the techniques employed to provide the best service in choosing, supplying and cutting wigs and to look at the person and how we can go onto a different level of service and care that is so needed when working in this field.
We have two of our experienced team members participating in this course as part of the ethos of Freedom and continual development in all aspects of hairdressing. All our staff contribute their time to raise funds for cancer charities with forward-thinking momentum, a great generosity of spirit and personal initiative.

(This post is part of the Fox Foundation Resident Actor Fellowships and Fox Fellowship Circle salon.)
A vignette play is easy to conceive, easy to rehearse, and easy to produce.
Don't believe me? Ok, pick a theme or location. Now, brainstorm ten stories or events that are connected to that theme or that place. Use a group if you want it done quickly. Finally, write or improvise some dialogue for each of the stories and put them in order from lowest stakes to highest. Grab some chairs and a couple of black cubes. Congrats, you have a show.
But wait.
A vignette play is easy to conceive, easy to rehearse, and easy to produce. But it is really, really hard to make it good.
Oh, boy. I'm in trouble.
I came to my current project as a Fox Foundation Resident Actor. I'm acting, devising, writing, combining, and editing with a group of nine NYC high school students at Roundabout Theatre Company. We're creating a play that is to reflect on and point up the inherent chaos in their urban high school experience. We finished a first draft quickly. I took their stories and text and pieced together a ten-scene adventure that celebrates true friendship and condemns spontaneous violence: Prospect High: Brooklyn. The show can be played by four actors, or many more. It has twenty characters and is based completely in true events. Prospect High, Brooklyn takes place at 2:47 PM in ten different spaces within a mammoth high school building. The first scenes are light, the final ones are dark.
And the play is not good yet.
Why? According to our dramaturg from Roundabout's Literary Department, Shannon Deep, we haven't given the audience enough time to connect with any of the characters. Some of them are beautiful and interesting people, she says, but they flit away just as we're getting to know them. In my effort to get all of the great devised pieces into the finished play, I let each character live for a mere scene apiece. Maybe I need to let them stick around a bit longer.
But how many scenes does it take to connect to a character?
I've seen true vignette plays done well. There is no denying the popularity and emotional impact of John Cariani's Almost, Maine. Those characters last fifteen minutes each, but they convince us of the tangible value of love. Neil Simon's vignette play, The Good Doctor, is pitch perfect parody that entertains as it mirrors our foibles. Do we connect to those characters in their single scenes? I think we do, because we see ourselves instantly in them. Perhaps more pointedly, we connect to those characters because they were written by masterful playwrights.
I'm just not masterful.
So, I've reached a tipping point: I must balance my desire to create a flexible, easily producible play with the reality that it takes (two, three, four, five) scenes for an audience to truly care about a character.
Maybe it's just a logic problem.
The stories are inherently connected, because they came from the same group of nine people. What if there were two versions of this play? What if the scenes focused on (three, four, five) characters, and we see them journey through a real-time series of situations at their school, but we also have a flexible version where the individual scenes introduce us to twenty completely different characters? In other words: five characters say stuff and make a journey in one version (a character arc), and twenty characters say the same stuff while the play as a whole makes a journey in the other version (a thematic arc)? The vignette version would not be as emotionally satisfying, but it would be easier for a large group to produce. The smaller cast version would not be as easy to create, but it would show us a fuller transformation from each character.
It is possible. I can make two versions of the same play make sense. But is it a good idea?
Let me know.

Soothing Expectant Moms' Sore Bodies Naturally
Over the years, many studies have shown that at least 50% of all expectant mothers in the United States experience mild to excruciating back pain at some time during their pregnancies. Oftentimes, that pain starts in either the posterior pelvic or lumbar vertebrae areas as early as the first month after conception.
Here's a look at why those types of complaints are common among expectant mothers and how chiropractic for pregnancy may offer them a solution:
After conception, a woman's body undeniably starts to change. For example, her hormone levels will start to fluctuate. In addition, she'll experience an increase in uterus size, enlarged breasts, weight gain, a shifting of the pelvic muscles and changes in posture. The fetus, as it grows, will also start to move around and in the process may create temporary pressure points or musculoskeletal misalignment.
Clearly, all of those things will most certainly have an impact on the joints, muscles, ligaments and nerves that surround an expectant mom's spinal column, extremities and joints. Unfortunately, that list of potential symptoms includes, but doesn't end with:
- Traveling or Persistent Pains Attributed to Pinched Nerves or Overstretched Muscles
- Numbness or Tingling in the Extremities Secondary to Circulatory Problems
- Torn or Sprain Muscles in the Abdomen or Pelvic Region
- Episodes of Stress Related Incontinence
- Difficulty Completing Daily Activities (e.g. Walking, Going to the Bathroom)
Now that we've covered why expectant moms tend to find themselves in pain, let's shift direction. It has long been accepted by healthcare professionals that basic chiropractic treatments, like spinal manipulation, have the potential to assuage expectant moms' back pains by:
- Stabilizing Joints, Muscles and Ligaments
- Putting the Body Back Into Alignment
- Relieving Pressure in Impacted Areas
Some professional also believe that Indianapolis chiropractic care may help new moms deal with postnatal pains related to breast feeding, chronic fatigue, frequent bending and lifting.
