Today we had a new security door installed by Lowe's. We wanted to get it so we could leave the front door open and let the cool breeze blow through the house. We live in a wind tunnel and the $400 price tag should have paid off in saved air conditioning
They didn't tell us that there would be a 1/2 inch gap all the way around the door where bugs could get in. The guy who installed it said it was for security, not for keeping bugs out. It doesn't really make sense to me that there has to be a gap all the way around the door, but at least now, when I answer the door, the dogs can't run out and the bad guys can't get in. But see the light there on the outside wall? Yeah, the security door hits it when it is opened. The solution? I put a pot right under it so when the door opens, it hits the pot, not the light. That's what the door installer suggested. The door doesn't open all the way, but at least my light and my door won't get broken when the kids slam the door open bringing groceries in.
And, maybe I can figure out a way to add weather stripping around the door to plug up the gap so I can leave the door open and let the cool breeze blow in.
I sewed and sewed and sewed flannel together this morning while waiting for the door guy to show up, the appointment was sometime between 10 and noon and he showed up at 11:45. I sewed from 10 to 11:30. I loaded all of this backing onto the quilting machine. I love having a ton of backing fabric on the machine so I can just load quilt top after quilt top and it only takes about 10-15 minutes to quilt the little guys. I can get a lot of quilts done in a day if the backing fabric is already loaded on. I wonder how many quilts I can get done from this round of backing fabric. The problem with this much backing fabric is when I have another big quilt to do, I have to either take off the backing, or work on it until it is all done. I have several other quilts in the works, the memory quilt, the wedding quilt and now a comfort quilt for the neighbor of a friend. She lost her son in a motorcycle accident two months ago and is very depressed. My friend is hoping a quilt will help her. I'm hoping to start that tomorrow after I finish the wedding quilt top. I worked on that a lot today too. I'm 2/3 of the way done with the top.
Mr. Migraine showed up this morning and had been keeping me company most of the day. It seems like I get more quilting done when he is around. Weird right?

We had exchanges as planned. I went with Elder Wendell to the beautiful area of Cass Lake which is actually on the Leech Lake Indian Reservation. We stayed with some members who fed us Brats for dinner. As part of the exchange, Elder Wendell and I showed Robb Johnson, a recent convert of about a year how to do family history work to take names to the temple for his ancestors. He is super excited to do so and is also planning on serving a full time mission soon.
On Friday we had a great District meeting and then proceeded to walk around Bemidji all day long talking to people about the Church. It was great. The fireworks were also very good and were very pretty when reflected off of the lake in Bemidji.
Tonight we are having a picnic with Mia and the Niswanders. It should be really fun and we also are going to have the opportunity to see Alvin and Leslie there again as well.
It's been a very fast week. I love each of you,
With love,Elder Davis

Executive CPA leaders from 81 of the top 100 accounting firms in the U.S. visited Capitol Hill to discuss some of the key legislative issues confronting the accounting profession.
The American Institute of CPAs led the delegation. Members of the AICPA's Major Firms Group, who come from all 50 states, are meeting at a forum in the capital this week.
"International, national and regional accounting firms outside of the Big Four have grown very significantly in recent years," said AICPA president and CEO Barry Melancon (pictured) in a statement. "We think it's important for Congress to understand their role in our capital markets and hear about the issues that are of concern to this group."
This is the first time the Major Firms Group has visited Congress to meet with lawmakers. Leaders of the firms will be holding more than 70 meetings with House and Senate members. Legislative issues they will be discussing include equalizing the IRS's tax preparer and taxpayer standards, banning tax strategy patents and promoting uniform interstate income tax requirements.

Romans 9
Paul's Sorrow for the Jews
Romans 9:1-5
(1) I speak the truth in Jesus Christ—I am not lying, my conscience assures me it is true in the Holy Spirit—(2) I have overwhelming sorrow and unceasing anguish in my heart. (3) For I wish that I was under God's curse (anathema) and separated from the Messiah (Christ) for the sake of my people, my countrymen according to the flesh.
(4) For to the Israelites belongs the adoption as children, the divine glory, the covenants, the receiving of the law of Moses, temple worship, and the promises. (5) Theirs are the patriarchs, and from them is traced the human genealogy of the Messiah (Christ), who is God over all and forever praised! Amen (let it be).
The True Israel
Romans 9:6-18
(6) But it is not as though God's word has failed. For not all who are physical descendants of Israel belong to Israel, (7) and not all are the children of Abraham because they are his physical descendants. On the contrary, as it says in Genesis 21:12, "Through Isaac will your offspring be named." (8) In other words, it is not the children by physical descent who are God's children, but it is the children of the promise who are Abraham's true offspring. (9) For this was how God's promise to Abraham was written in Genesis 18:14, "At the appointed time I will return, and Sarah will have a son."
(10) Not only that, but Rebecca's twins (Jacob and Esau) were conceived at the same time by our father Isaac. (11) Yet before the twins were born or had done anything good or bad—in order that God's redemptive purpose of election would continue—(12) not by human works but by God's divine calling, Rebecca was told in Genesis 25:23, "The older will serve the younger," (13) and as Malachi 1:2-3 says, "Jacob I loved, but Esau I hated."
(14) Some will ask me, "What then should we say? Is God unjust?" Absolutely not! (15) For God told Moses in Exodus 33:19, "I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion." (16) Therefore, it does not depend on human desire or effort, but on God's mercy. (17) For God told Pharaoh in Exodus 9:16, "I raised you up for this very purpose, so that I might display my power in you, and that my name would be proclaimed in all the earth." (18) Therefore, God has mercy on whom he wants to have mercy, and he hardens the hearts of those he wants to harden.
The Sovereign God
Romans 9:19-29
(19) Therefore, some will ask me, "How can God still find us guilty when we cannot resist his will?" (20) But who are you, a mere human; how can you question God? As it is written in Isaiah 29:16, "Will what is formed say to the one who formed it, 'Why did you create me like this?' " (21) Does not the potter have the right to make out of the same lump of clay some pottery for special purposes and some for ordinary dishonorable use?
(22) What if God, deciding to show his just wrath and reveal his power, endured with great patience toward objects (vessels) of wrath prepared for destruction, (23) in order to show the treasures of his majestic glory to objects (vessels) of his mercy, whom he prepared in advance for glory—(24) even us, whom he has called, not only from among the Jews but also from among the non-Jews?
(25) As it is written in Hosea 2:23, "I will call them 'my people' who are not my people; I will call 'my loved one' she who is not my loved one," (26) and in Hosea 1:10, "You are not my people, but they will be called 'children of the living God.' " (27) The prophet cries out concerning Israel in Isaiah 10:22-23, "Though the number of the Israelites be like the sand by the seashore, only the remnant will be saved. (28) The Lord will carry out his sentence on earth with speed and finality." (29) Also, as it is written in Isaiah 1:9, "Unless the Lord Almighty had left us descendants, we would have become like Sodom and Gomorrah."
(30) Therefore, what then shall we say? Non-Jews, who did not pursue God's righteousness, have received it by faith; (31) but the Israelites who pursued the law of Moses as the means of receiving God's righteousness did not succeed in their goal.
(32) Why not? Because the Israelites pursued God's righteousness not by faith but as if it could be attained by works of the law of Moses. The Jews stumbled over the stumbling stone, (33) as it is written in Isaiah 28:16, "See, I lay in Zion a stone that causes people to stumble and a rock that makes them fall. The one who believes in him will never be put to shame."

Committee developing clinic's new funding model
By Nick Tabor, New Era Senior Staff Writer
Betsy Bond, the director of St. Luke Free Clinic since 2009, is resigning effective Sept. 27.
Bond said she needs to spend more time with her family. If she works, it will be to resume the office organization business she did before taking this job, she said.
Bond is leaving at a pivotal time in the life of the organization. Leaders of the Christian County Health Department decided in June they cannot afford to continue paying the salaries of the free clinic's staff after June of next year, so a committee is now researching alternative funding models.
But Bond said she's not just jumping ship out of concern that St. Luke won't last.
"I see St. Luke there in the future in some form," she said. "The staff is wonderful. The board has been dedicated."

6/8-6/9, Tentative Flapping
Fledging time for the Cathedral red-tail babies is nigh, but they seem unready. The nest "roof", plus the confines of there being three nestlings each seeking her own space, make it difficult to exercise the wings without interference.
Nevertheless, some flapping has begun, to the extent that one expects that the first fledge will be someone getting bumped out of the nest as someone else exercises. The "launching pad" of St. Andrew's hand is also getting some attention, although no one seems to have actually jumped out there yet.
Humid, almost misty evening, so picture taking was a little more difficult.
6:45 p.m. - Arrive to find other hawkwatchers have gathered because fledging time is approaching. But it also means sometimes finding the good watching spots are alreay occupied.
6:47 - Camera now out, one can see two nestlings on the north side of the nest.
6:52 - One of them has jumped up on St. Andrew's head.
6:55 - Wander around the corner to see what the third nestling is up to.
6:56 - Bingo! They're all up.
But the trio are looking in different directions, no coordination at all, so different things have their interest.
Ah, the I-can-twist-my-head-around stare.
7:02 - Gabriel's horn is empty. Was there a parent up there when I arrived.
7:10 - Three kids still in their respective spots.
7:11 - And Isolde now perched on Gabriel's horn.
7:20 - Nestling on St. Andrew's head is back in the nest, and most of the view now is another nestling's back.
7:25 - Big stretch of both wings from nestling on north side as she steps back into nest. The sticks in that spot seem wobbly, and although we're seeing some wing stretches and flaps, I wonder if most are for balance.
7:40 - Loads of preening and looking around from northside nestling.
7:41 - Noticing a couple people looking up at the roof of St. Luke's, I check the decorative vase on the corner and see Isolde is now perched there. Actually, no, she and Tristan are there.
7:45 - Northside nestling tries to jump from the nest edge up on St. Andrew's head but slips. Big wing flap.
7:50 - Two nestlings on north side. One facing outward, one inward but looking back over her shoulder. They watch something fly over Morningside Park, then preen.
7:55 - Check on third nestling on south side of nest. She's having a good scratch.
8:00 - Nestlings sitting around.
8:10 - Both parents take off. One heads off toward Douglass Circle. It seems a bit late to go hunting in Central Park, doesn't it?
8:13 - Big wing flap from single nestling on north side of nest. Sometimes it seems like she (or whoever is perching in that spot) is eying St. Andrew's hand and thinking about trying to perch out there, but when they try to move out there, the nest sticks shift and flap-flap, back into the nest.
8:22 - Quiet again, but we've found mama Isolde perched atop 301 West 110. So no, no hunting in the park. No idea where Tristan went. Perhaps a bit too early for him to go to roost.
8:27 - Looks like the three nestlings have all gone to bed.
It's cooler out but the air is clearer. None of that humid mistiness from yesterday.
6:04 p.m. - Arrive at nest area to see one nestling perched on St. Adrew's head and another on north side of nest.
6:12 - Third is on south side of nest, but not all the way out.
6:13 - Hawk yoga with a leg stretch from nestling on Andrew's head.
6:17 - And off Andrew's head back into nest.
6:18 - Finally find a hawk parent perched in the area. Tristan is on oen of the pointed cooper roofs over at St. Luke's.
6:33 - Nestlings all seem to have their attention on something inside the nest. Doesn't seem like they're really feeding, but maybe someone is pecking at what's left of a meal. or perhaps they're plotting a conspiracy.
6:34 - Mama Isolde spotted atop 301 West 110.
6:48 - All seemed quiet for awhile, and the only other hawkwatcher has left because of the cool temperatures. But now one of the nestlings pops back up on St. Andrew's head. All can be seen from a viewpoint along 113th St.
6:49 - Whoever's on Andrew's head turns around, and then sits so that her back is outward.
6:52 - She turns back around, and she and another nestling both watch something in the sky to the north. But Tristan is still on the roof of St. Luke's.
6:54 - Preen, preen, preen. All I can see is feathery hawk bottoms.
7:10 - I'd been on the verge of leaving, but then a nestling made another cautious step towards St. Andrew's hand. Nest sticks wobble a bit, flap-flap-flap, jump back in nest. Whew.
7:12 - Another try, but same result.
7:15 - Big flap, and another try at Andrew's hand. Damn, stopped short again. Flap-flap.
7:16 - Big stare at Andrew's hand. Nestling on south side of nest can be seen looking over at sibling's toil.
7:20 - Gotta go. One nestling still on Andrew's head after 30 minutes plus.

If you wish to view all eight of our winners thus far, please click on the category, "Writer Mama Back-to-School Daily Giveaway Winners." 🙂
I sent the packages to winners 1-6 yesterday, please allow up to three weeks for delivery. Not sure how long it will take. Feel free to comment or e-mail when you receive your books.
Also, and this will be the case from here on out (I have a book deadline, after all):
If your comment doesn't comply with "Da Rules," your comment will automatically be deleted without follow up.
I am so mean. 😉
Actually, I have to make sure I get my work done and keep all my balls in the air. This goes for my book deadline, ongoing classes, article deadlines, parenting, wifing, pet care, etc.
The giveaway is a blast! But it must stay on track and if it goes off track…well, I'm just saying, I'm not responsible for folks who don't comply with the rules any longer. I had kinda taken that on without realizing it. Silly me.
Also the blog server might screw up. And there is nothing, and I mean no thing, that I can do to control that (except whine at WordPress really loudly, but even that won't restore your evaporated post). So we just have to roll with it and hope she holds strong for the entire 30 days.
So far, seems to be going pretty good. My husband made me change random number generators. He didn't think the last one I was using was reliable. But I thought it was working just fine. I mean, it's supposed to be random. And it sure seemed like it was. But we'll try this one this week and see how he likes it.
Please let me know if you have a recurring problem. For one-time problems, I think from here on out we all just have to shrug and say, "Oh well."
Sticking to the rules is the best, most consistent stance for me for sanity's sake. I don't like to hear that something has gone wrong, which has been the case on a few occasions so far. However, I've saved many entries from qualifying…but I have to stop doing that. Otherwise, I won't have the time/energy to orchestrate the giveaway.
So THANKS for understanding and following the rules. Everyone has been a good sport so far. And now…ON WITH THE GIVEAWAY!

The Cascades are getting teased this week with light or moderate low elevation snowfall. Oregon should see heavier snow especially from Timberline Ski Lodge to the central regions of the State in the next 48 hours. Copious amounts of moisture are aimed at the Pacific Northwest including Whistler next week with a flip flop of snow levels (Rain followed by snow). Some very high snow totals may be found at upper peaks in the 5-10 day forecast. Arapahoe Basin Opens up for the first time of the season this Friday!
Short Term Forecast
The models have been hinting at a possible Atmospheric River event next week for the Pacific Northwest with several periods of significant rain and high mountain snow. Several feet of wet snow is possible over the higher summits of Whistler through the period beginning Monday. Heavy snow will be falling over the Oregon Cascades today through Friday.
The challenge will be snow levels as warm fronts with significant moisture are followed by colder air so amounts will be very variable depending on timing and elevations next week. Canada will reap initial rewards with cooler temps however the Cascades of Washington and Oregon will eventually do well perhaps later next week? Several periods of heavy rain followed by snowfall are possible next week for the Cascades. Snow amounts will very variable depending on elevations. An AR event technically needs tropical moisture that is still possible however it's not a slam dunk. Regardless, it's going to get progressively wetter especially mid to late next week! Whistler may end up a winner by this time next week at the summit.
Below: Long term ensembles showing deep low pressure over the Pacific Northwest mid next week. Moisture increases in the long term ensembles beyond that.
In the short term, we are watching a weak system today followed by a moderate system Thursday for the Cascades of WA/OR and some of the first flakes for the Idaho Panhandle (Schweitzer). Cold air will bring some snow to the bases of most ski areas of the Northwest this week. Most areas will see 2-5 inches at upper elevations before heavy snow takes hold over central Oregon. "A good portion of the Oregon Cascades will see a foot or more through Friday". That might include Timberline Lodge (Open), and perhaps Bachelor where several inches of snow are likely especially late tonight through Friday morning. "I was up at Bachelor snowboarding (Closed) several weeks ago when they nabbed 20 inches (Early season bonus)."
Below: Total snowfall for the Northwest including the Panhandle through Saturday night. Highest amounts will be in the central Oregon Cascades and the summit of Mount Rainier through Friday.
Extended Forecast
The long term ensembles are showing significant moisture for the Northwest late next week (Rain and snow) with flip flopping snow levels. There are cold fronts that could bring impressive snow totals to certain areas. Since it's 7-10 days out I have marginal confidence at this point with the rain/snow lines. Those systems most likely we take a northerly route before diminishing as they move over the northern Rockies. It's possible that some resorts in the Pacific Northwest log deep snow up top and significant rain at the bases (its only early October).
Please follow "The Chase forecast" updated as conditions change.

VH Football
Walker Minor (34) takes off for a run against Hewitt-Trussville.
The Alabama High School Athletic Association announced the completion of reclassification for 2016-2018 on Wednesday.
Reclassification takes place every two years, and the last cycle produced the addition of Class 7A. There was some speculation that 7A may add on to the 32 teams already in place, but that number remained.
Vestavia Hills is largely unaffected in football, as they remain in Class 7A, Region 3. Spain Park, Hoover, Oak Mountain, Mountain Brook, Thompson, and Tuscaloosa County are also holdovers. The lone change is Huffman moving up to 7A and replacing Hewitt-Trussville, who moves to Region 4.
In all other sports, however, the Rebels are on the move. In what amounts to a swap with Oak Mountain, Vestavia moves to Area 5 with Hoover, Thompson, and Tuscaloosa County.
The changes will go into affect in the fall.

I have read many FAQs on this but still seem to be having issues. I created a form, with a submit button, using livecycle then saved it as a static PDF. The form was then linked to a website for users to submit registration details for a meeting. The problem is that that the users are all over the US and some of the forms I receive are blank, some have seemingly blank fields until to click in them then the text appears. Some users cannot use the submit button. I am in desperate need of some help as the registration process has already begun.http://mic3.net/documents/2013Annual_Meet_Reg.pdf. Thanks
I found that you have not reader extended the form, so it will not work properly for them who has only Adobe Reader, it will work for them who have Acrobat Pro. So you need to ReaderExtend the form. Either by Acrobat pro or by LiveCycle ReaderExtensions.

It's the moment of truth. In this last message before I go I am left wondering: Will my readers wait for me and be here when I return? It's a strange world this, the internet. I don't know who's there. I don't know when they leave or when they come back. Hmmm… What is the meaning of this? I won't make too much of it. One thing I can say is that after writing about finding the meaning in a text I recalled the book The Neverending Story by Michael Ende. As Bastion is reading the book it slowly dawns on him that the book is talking about him and even speaking to him. This is the sense I was trying to convey. We can ask a book questions because we want to meet it on its own terms and know its meaning without bias. But then we have to realize the book is also asking us questions. It is addressing us.
Questions on the book flow from ambiguity. How can we hear questions the book or text is addressing to us? I will be thinking about that. And you can too.
I will bring back plenty of treats – stories of logotherapy presenters and interesting people from around the world.
Until then, find meaning in other blogs, in other people, in a budding flower, in the smile of a child, in each and every moment of life. Live it to the fullest!
Signing off…

Yesterday we returned to the Photo Festival Naarden as we had just seen the half of the exhibitions. As I told before Naarden is a fortress city and has ramparts all around which are used for a museum and also for this exhibition. In the open air on the ramparts were these photos of people in Afghanistan placed between the cannons of the Fortress Museum. The photos didn't show the war but the photographer Marieke van der Velden wanted to show what people do on a Monday Morning in Kabul, their daily life what is still going on during the difficult times.
In the ramparts are long corridors with exhibitions.
We walked under the ground through caves where it was rather cold.
And sometimes rather spooky.
Outside also everywhere photos.
It is always an exciting festival to see so much photos at all the different locations.

Asia Pacific Religious Freedom Forum - Freedom House Plenary Remarks
Asia Pacific Religious Freedom Forum
Plenary Remarks
Mark P. Lagon
I. Introduction
Happy New Year to our hosts and attendees at the AP-RFF, here at this beautiful venue in Taoyuan! Thank you Mayor Cheng, for hosting us. We hear you are doing great things for innovation and revitalization in the city of Taoyuan. We hope that the conference reflects this same vigor for change.
Vice President Lu, thank you for your leadership to promote interfaith cooperation and protection of belief by facilitating partnership between civil society, faith leaders, and government representatives. Your commitment to religious freedom reinforces the integrity of this pillar of democracy, and we thank your organization, the Democratic Pacific Union, for its efforts in establishing this important platform.
A special thanks to our friends at ChinaAid, for assembling this company of individuals, organizations and nations so dedicated to sustaining the idea and practice of religious freedom across the Asia-Pacific. Bob Fu is certainly a living example of how to practice what you preach, through his years of work on behalf of religious freedom and rule of law in China. Thank you, Bob.
Nations are most prosperous when governments respect and protect the inherent dignity of citizens.
They must encourage a plurality of ideas and beliefs, to promote a dynamic and equitable civil society that openly embraces multiple faiths.
Freedom House is grateful for the opportunity to present our rationale for citizens, faith leaders and government leaders to jointly promote religious freedom. We've seen this collaboration at work. Indeed, we often work with civil society partners at the front line of battles for religious liberty. We've worked with government partners to keep religious practitioners safe from harm, when we can, through our programs. We broadcast religious freedom challenges to the world through our publications in consultation with religious communities at risk.
Today, we hope to give witness to those partnerships, to inspire ideas for collaboration between those assembled here in the name of freedom of belief.
There are several key principles that inform how citizens and governments can best collaborate. At the most basic level, society must foster respect for an individual's inherent human dignity, and the right to choose a religion – or not. By extension, that individual must choose to support a plurality of beliefs within their society, to publically express their faith – or not.
This spirit of respect depends upon an environment where the freedom to assemble and express individual or corporate faith is uninhibited. Let us consider these elements in closer detail… building toward a model of collaboration in support of religious freedom for all…
II. Dignity
Our mutual belief in the dignity of the individual brought us all to this conference. Though we represent different national, ethnic, linguistic and religious origins, it is the undeniable principle that connects us all. This congregation of those committed to religious freedom is proof itself that we have all arrived – from our disparate points of origin – to a place where human dignity is truly universal. Consider the common philosophy shared by these global figures, who invoke the centrality of human dignity to a functioning society - despite coming from vastly different societies:
In accepting the Sakharov Prize for Freedom of Thought way back in 1991, Aung San Suu Kyi said: "A most insidious form of fear is that which masquerades as common sense or even wisdom, condemning as foolish, reckless, insignificant or futile the small, daily acts of courage which help to preserve man's self-respect and inherent human dignity."
Former Archbishop of Canterbury Rowan Williams said in a 2010 sermon to the New Parliament at Westminster Abbey: "Shared dignity is the condition for what you could call 'civic warmth' – the sense of being able to trust not only immediate neighbors but the wider social fabric. If government is visibly working for dignity in citizenship, trust will follow."
The Dalai Lama said in April 1993: "Buddhism too recognizes that human beings are entitled to dignity, that all members of the human family have an equal and inalienable right to liberty, not just in terms of political freedom, but also at the fundamental level of freedom from fear and want."
Even within specific societies, those with dramatically opposing world views agree:
George W. Bush said in his 2002 State of the Union Address: "We have no intention of imposing our culture, but America will always stand firm for the non-negotiable demands of human dignity." A very different president, Barack Obama, accepting the Nobel Peace Prize in Oslo in 2009 said: "Only a just peace based upon the inherent rights and dignity of every individual can truly be lasting."
Eleanor Roosevelt was a founding co-chair of Freedom House 75 years ago, after negotiating the Universal Declaration on Human Rights. The Declaration invokes dignity in its opening Article. About the drafting of this significant commitment between nations, Harvard Law Professor Mary Ann Glendon wrote:
"Mrs. Roosevelt…said that the word dignity had been considered carefully by the Human Rights Commission, which had included it in order to emphasize that every human being is worthy of respect…[In] the Declaration, Article 1…was meant to explain why human beings have rights to begin with.''
This was possible due to an interregional, intercultural, and interfaith consensus on dignity as a premise.
Of course, "to err is human." History is littered with abhorrent interpretations of religious text – leading to regrettable misrepresentations of faith and misapplications of religious practice. In all societies, there are scenarios where such errors have led to a casting aside of human dignity, sacrificing or appropriating religious principles or practice for purposes of earthly power. We can all think of examples.
Yet, these unfortunate scenarios underscore that dignity is as central to all faiths as it is to the secular universal principles captured in the Universal Declaration.
As a professor of ethics and international affairs at a Jesuit university, 2 years ago I co-authored a book with Anthony Arend, Human Dignity and the Future of Global Institutions. We attempt to define human dignity concretely, so that institutions and policies can be judged by how they promote or inhibit respect between citizens of different beliefs – political, religious, or otherwise.
Consistent with multi-faith perspectives, human dignity has three characteristics which determine the best way to shape policies, and ultimately to inform models of collaboration in support of religious freedom.
First, dignity depends on agency – the freedom of every human being to apply her or his gifts to their life's work, and thrive. As an Episcopalian Christian myself, I refer to these as "God-given gifts." Translating this notion into policy language, Martha Nussbaum calls them "capabilities" for development. Nobel Prize-winning Indian economist Amartya Sen responds to such capacities, citing agency as the link between the realms of civic freedom, and that of economic and social prosperity. Without agency, our gifts and capabilities are constrained. People must be able to choose their paths, to pursue whatever it is they have determined serves their best interest, and their values.
Second, dignity depends on social recognition. Francis Fukuyama was chided for once asking if the Cold War's passing marked the end of history. Was democracy the final model? The best way to recognize diverse beliefs and identities within one body politic? While a struggle of models persists, his understanding of the individual within society is insightful: each person possesses a distinctive longing for recognition. Radical individualism is a mirage. Human beings are not atomistic. They live in social communities. All human beings' inherent worth must be protected by the society of which they are a part.
Third, dignity demands institutionalization, in other words, a formal platform for recognition and recourse -- a system of protection. Absent this, self-determination and social recognition are vulnerable to repression. The faith-based NGO leader Gary Haugen rightly suggests, "Law and treaties on paper…are all meaningless without tangible access to justice for marginalized or minority peoples subject to violence."
Without citizen trust in institutions of justice, it is difficult to build a society oriented toward religious freedom for all. Where one group perceives the system as asymmetrical, or accruing particular benefits to another group at their own expense, the trust between individuals erodes, and mutual respect dissolves. This is bleak; but it need not be. The protection of each other's agency and recognition depend on decisions we each make every day, as we interact with our neighbors, family members, or friends that hold perspectives different from our own.
This notion in aggregate is known as 'pluralism.' Pluralism supports conditions and systems in which two or more or sources of authority - including religious ones - coexist.
III. Pluralism
Pluralism takes practice. Both citizens and governments must learn to tolerate multiple value systems in society. This notion is reflected in the tenants of Conservative Judaism, which instructs adherents to, "eschew triumphalism with respect to other ways of serving God." Many faiths exist, but there is not one that triumphs. So, governments must also eschew triumphalism with respect to privileging citizens along religious lines.
In the crowd today is Mr. Harry Myo Lin, who represents the imperative of inter-faith collaboration to safeguard each citizen's religious identity and practice. He works to build bridges between Muslims and Buddhists in Burma. He described the biggest hurdle to fulfilling the requirements of pluralism: "I think that the root cause of hate-speech is the lack of knowledge and trust between each group. I think that some people misuse people's love for their religion; some use it as a political tool."
Harry's observation reflects great wisdom. We must hope that mutual respect for different faiths is robust enough in each society, that religion cannot be used as a political tool to destroy pluralism, demote minority belief systems, and demolish social trust.
In addition, the state must promote rule of law to protect the diversity that each and every society reflects. History is clear: repressing pluralism is an exercise in futility. This futility is reflected in blasphemy and apostasy laws that have harsh penalties, including imprisonment or death, such as in Pakistan. Pakistan National Assembly Representative Asiya Nasir has commented on the impunity for misapplication of such laws against minorities, noting that, "Not a single person, who misuses the laws against minorities, has ever been punished."
In a more positive example regarding this worrying state power, Indonesia has a blasphemy law that, "forbids anyone from deliberately, in public, expressing feelings of hostility, hatred, or contempt against religions with the purpose of preventing others from adhering to any religion, and forbids anyone from disgracing a religion." The law is inclusive of all faiths, not endowing one with greater protection from blasphemy than another. However, the law suppresses the fundamental freedom of speech. In this way it is conditioned to protect religions at the cost of free expression.
Malaysia also has a law that controls what people say and do to prevent blasphemies. Is this promoting pluralism? No. It is inclusive but it is not pluralist. It does not allow for the public to derive their own spiritual direction or social opinions, or to bring their beliefs into the public. Hate speech diminishes social trust. It should be discouraged by measured and honorable counter-arguments, the public forum must be uninhibited for this to happen.
Pluralism, in practice, necessitates state policies of non-interference in the practice of a specific faith. The only viable and legitimate way the state must facilitate social cohesion is by creating and safeguarding 'space' for individuals to seek their own forms of enlightenment. Further, actors in society must work together to engage with the state, to prevent it from dividing and conquering, undermining fundamental freedoms such as association, assembly, expression, and conscience.
The protection of these freedoms is a cause for collaboration because it accrues equal benefits to all citizens – including those working within a government. A nation's ability to respect universal human rights depends on engagement of diverse ideas. In the long run, discussion moderates extremism. It is the difference of opinion and perspective that realize and deepen democratic ideals.
This institutional commitment usually flows from a Constitution or foundational social contract between state and society that permits freedom of religion, and rejects official state religion. Taiwan is a shining example of both institutionalization of pluralism, and respect for religious freedom. For one thing, the Ministry of Internal Affairs has implementing authority for a law to manage non-profit associations and foundations--including those of a religious or spiritual nature. The government manages these organizations in a non-prejudiced manner, through predictable mechanisms that all citizens can easily access.
For example, the Civic Organizations Law is exemplary of Taiwan's state committing to use its power to protect individual agency and corporate privacy pertaining to the practice of faith and spirituality. The law permits places of worship to register with local authorities, and allows for such associations to operate as the personal property of their participants if they so choose. No believers are disappeared into the darkness of an extrajudicial prison for hosting a bible study in their home or gathering in a public park to practice Falun Gong group exercises.
But such freedoms do not arise out of a vacuum; they must be demanded by the public and preserved by the state. In many cases, to strengthen pluralism and democracy, forms of transitional justice are required to facilitate the development of these dignity-based institutions. Again, to err is human, and many faiths preach forgiveness as a central tenant of their teachings.
In the words of philosopher He Huaihong in his 2014 book on evolving Mainland Chinese ethics and morality:
"A group that has been oppressed or abused must still retain the spirit of love; a group that has been treated unfairly must still want to uphold the principles of fairness. While a group must have the strength to protest [wrongdoing], it must also be scrupulous about remaining within the limits of moral permissibility. This requires deep reserves of spiritual strength."
An accountable state is a state that can be forgiven. A state that lacks accountability is therefore doomed toward civil strife, or even open conflict. We see this now with the unrighteous violence of the "fishball revolution" that unfolded in Hong Kong, indicative of deep need for accountability in maintaining the territory's autonomy. We see this in the Chinese state's repression of the religious practice of Uyghur Muslims. Rights and protections written into the Chinese law, are harshly violated in practice. The tyranny of state over religion is witnessed by PRC flags that fly over mosques. Tolerance for the peaceful practice of Islam is stigmatized in national press. International press are forbidden from shedding light on injustice in Xinjiang. From increasing accountability to protect minority rights. In both cases, institutionalized methods to resolve disputes – such as elections and courts – are warped in a system that fundamentally lacks accountability, rather than reinforcing agency and recognition of all people.
Minorities must be respected in a plural society, the state must not adopt preferential policies for certain groups based on religious affiliation – or non-religious affiliation. Again, as is the case today in China, only state-mandated religions and places of worship are authorized as legal. This is a classic example of anti-pluralism; the PRC's monopoly on the public spiritual realm, and use of force to maintain it, evokes images of the Rome that so brutally sought to punish Christian converts and Jewish refugees within its borders. Obviously, the modern manifestation of this syndrome makes for a weak collaborative environment to protect religious freedom.
There are certainly more constructive models for state-society collaboration. Though national-level policy advocacy can push open space for pluralism and protect fundamental freedoms, often, these efforts do not start at the national level.
The real change begins among neighbors. Then it expands into the community, and spills across regions. Then the wave washes over broader political constituencies. And finally, the state must listen.
IV. Collaboration between State and Society to Strengthen Religious Freedom
Partnerships between states, civil society groups, faith-based institutions, intergovernmental organizations, and businesses are essential to advance dignity and pluralism.
My own experience in the fight against human trafficking reflects these partnerships -- partnerships to combat clear affronts to human dignity. Faith-based actors have played enormous roles in social movements to abolish this modern incarnation of slavery. I was the United States' Ambassador-at-Large to Monitor and Combat Trafficking in Persons; CEO of a leading anti-trafficking nonprofit, Polaris; and cofounder of the Global Business Coalition Against Human Trafficking with Coca Cola, Microsoft, Delta Airlines, and others.
Some partnerships are truly transformative, helping the enslaved to reclaim their dignity, while some are defective, failing to address root problems.
As a practitioner and scholar, I concluded that in order to combat labor and sex trafficking, partnerships need two "M's" in particular. First -- whether faith-based or secular, or whether in the public, private, or nonprofit spheres – partners need matching missions in order to truly help people before or after they are violated. Second, motives matter. Not only must partners' missions align, their motives need to be sound and authentic. Many institutions, whether states or companies or even at times some faith-based actors, purposefully distract people from systemic violation with other good works. Partners must beware mere "window dressing" partnerships because they obscure insights into how to truly address repression.
These 2 "M's" are equally important to partnerships related to religious pluralism, tolerance, and freedom. In Burma, Freedom House is working with Archbishop Charles Maung Bo of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Yangon, to convene inter-faith, inter-ethnic dialogues to "make a voice for religious rights" in a context where a military state has moved toward more democratic practices. Rather than cast stones at old institutions, the program will bring together faith groups and human rights organizations to work with the newly elected Parliament. Together, they hope to reform laws that support a stronger civil society, protection of rights, and religious freedom for all the citizens the government represents. The motives of both the faith
leaders and elected leaders are similar: to bring peace and stability to Burma. The missions are complementary. This is a new partnership, and Freedom House looks forward to helping it bear fruit. This is an instructive model for collaboration between citizens, faith leaders, and those working within the state.
Also instructive, is what not to do. I've already mentioned a few examples.
The present situation in Mainland China stands as a parable for the antithesis of partnership.
The present situation in Mainland China falls as a model for state-society collaboration.
The present situation in Mainland China is emblematic of the nefarious practices we must all work together to overcome as an inter-faith community.
Here are the facts: The state sanctions legal faiths, with party oversight of doctrine. The state targets groups that operate outside of these institutions, groups that seek to follow uninhibited paths of their own belief. The state only partners with NGOs that implement its vision, not those that espouse their own independent ideas on how to improve society. The state persecutes advocates of religious liberty, even if their advocacy is limited, for instance, to performing centuries-old religious rites in Tibet. The state security apparatus is used to control the religious; the legal system is unaccountable; little to no recourse exists for the persecuted.
What have been the responses of political leaders? Government officials? Judges? Police? The reactions of these individuals in the realm of the state vary. However, the system compels compliance with repression. Only when individuals chose to act in favor of dignity and justice will partnerships be possible. After all, motives matter.
The situation is not immune to demands for change. Remember, universal respect for religious freedom starts with neighbors. It expands into the community. It spills across regions, and eventually the state must listen. Then the state may have to reevaluate its goals for addressing religious freedom and pluralism, and its interactions with a civil society advocating for change.
Mainland China is an extreme case of a state-society fracture on the issues of fundamental freedom. And yet, there is a compelling case for developing and articulating a public will for religious tolerance, despite the odds against it.
V. Closing
The reason we convene here has personal importance to me. One reason demonstrates the individual's potential to convene like-minded friends in support of religious freedom. The other demonstrates the potential to engage with those in power to promote and protect religious freedom. I worked with another parishioner with very different politics from my own to launch a group at my own Episcopal Church in Virginia, called Anglicans Against Religious Persecution Abroad. And, I was a staff person for the leadership of the U.S. House of Representatives when the International Religious Freedom Act, creating diplomatic and watchdog functions in the government was enacted in 1998.
We can each contribute effort to instituting freedom of religion in Asia, and beyond. What I have shared with you today provide a lens for identifying strong and weak models for building coalitions to advance this all-important cause. Some of these strong models, such as Taiwan, offer positive progress in the development of pluralism and religious toleration. Yet, horrifying problems persist: violence and repression committed by state and by non-state entities against religious groups and women (sometimes in the name of religion); friction between different sects and faith communities standing in the way of peace and democratization; and use of blasphemy laws to repress religious pluralism and freedom of expression. There is much work left for us to do.
The main, final argument of my book, Human Dignity and the Future of Global Institutions, is a the need for states, secular NGOs, faith-based institutions, intergovernmental organizations, corporations, and philanthropies to engage in an international, intercultural, interfaith dialogue on dignity and how to protect it in practice. That is what we are here for: discussing best practices and deepening partnerships to advance religious liberty as a cornerstone of basic human dignity. This conference has great promise to advance that aim concretely. Thank you to all participants for coming to this conference that Freedom House is honored to cosponsor.

Here I am in the office, while Big J is at home, calling or SMSing me from time to time, complaining about our cleaning lady. We have a cleaning lady that come to our house every Saturday.
Big J is complaining that she did not do a good job, especially the bathroom and he has to get down to re-do it himself! ;p Luckily I am not at home now, so I am out of his way! Let him do all those housework (since he seldom do it) and I just take my sweet time in office till 1230pm. 30 more minutes before I officially out of here!
When was the last time you do a thorough spring cleaning of your house??? I think the last time we did it was before CNY. Meaning more than 2 months. I believe some dirts and stuff have been compiling over the months and need to be throw away. I warned Big J not to throw my stuff or I wouldnt be talking to him anymore! *wink* He has the habit of throwing my stuff without informing me first! I hate it when he did that!
Since I took his precious notebook away this morning, he has no activity (or should I said, entertainment) at home, he is up to his cleaning cap. Blaming me for taking his notebook away! ;p Sorry dear, I need it more to blog hopping on a Saturday morning.

Wow, got to love that speed work, makes ya feel like 25 again,sooooo Cool. This morning included a Bike workout followed by a run (mile 1 Z2) then the rest Z1 run. Since I didn't have the SRM, I set the Minoura Mag850 and set it to 5 using a 50/16 ratio, what a crack up, if you know me I am so not a technical type guy, so I am down on my knees counting cogs to get the number. Anyway, the effort was pretty hard, and it was 3x5min with3 min rest in between and 3x2.5 with the same rest in between. I am guessing I was pushing around 350 watts (at least thats what it felt like) and the max HR were, #1-148 (obviously to light so I kicked into the gears mentioned above)#2-153, #3-157, now the 2.5 #1-160, #2-161 & #3 of which I died on 161.
The run was real good, first mile went off at a 7:14 and avg 147 followed by the normal Z1, however I was able to tick off a mile in the middle of the Z1 and it was a 8:05 avg 142 - Can't wait till Thursday.

In the previous chapter, an online catalog of products was developed, complete with buttons for adding items to the customer's shopping cart. Now it's time to implement the cart itself. A good shopping cart shows customers exactly what they have in their basket and provides ways to remove items, update the quantities, and check out. For this website, there's also a "wish-list" feature, allowing the customer to save cart items for later.
The bulk of this chapter will focus on writing the shopping cart and wish-list features. First, though, new stored procedures are required. The chapter ends with various ways to factor in shipping.

The battle of the physical books and the e-books has officially begun. Everyone has a viewpoint and rightly so. At least the people who read and treat reading as something beyond this realm.
I was one of those who used to think that I will not be a sellout. I will not purchase the Kindle, but I ended up doing that and to a large extent I enjoy reading books on it. I think it has got to do more with the fact that I can finish reading quicker on a Kindle than I would have in the physical format. That is a fact and somehow I find it being true for most people who own an E-Reader.
Physical books on the other hand, never lose their charm and never will. Sometimes I am scared that they just might stop publishing the book in the physical format. But I am sure that will not happen or hope that it will not.
E-books do not give the experience of reading a book. Books sometimes become too heavy to be carried around. E-books also on the other hand cost less. However, they do not smell like books and a handmade bookmark cannot be used to mark the page.
My mother cannot get used to the idea of reading on a Kindle, but she loves the fact that the font can be increased, so reading becomes convenient. At the same time, it is only Kindle Fire and a couple of other e-readers that provide the option of a backlight. I cannot read my Kindle in an auto rickshaw at night-time.
Books on the other hand, have their own charm and that cannot be lost. The smell of the pages, the picking of a book from a bookshelf and a stack of unread books by the bedside table cannot be replaced by an E-reader for sure.
So there are times, when I am reading the book in its physical form and the same book is being read on the reader. I do not know why I do that, but I do and that somehow fastens the reading process. Strange, but works for me all the time.
And then again, the magic of a book cannot be replaced. Thankfully in this area, no one has to keep up with the times if they do not want to. Though technology is ever-changing and I am sure there will be dozens of E-readers to choose from, but for those who cannot bear to be separated from their books, there will always be books in their physical form. The ones you can touch, feel, smell, get scared that the spine will break, lend and hound your friends till they return them, misplace and buy another edition, search for it in bookshops and libraries and sink in to your favourite spot and devour it for hours.

A rickety vintage airplane sporting orange wings that was piloted by a baby has landed at the Orange County Fair, and it's causing passersby to gaze on it with shock and awe.
Believe it.
Well, some of it anyway.
The plane is rickety because it's made of cardboard. And we can surmise it was "piloted" by a baby because its now-empty cockpit contains a "Baby on board" sign.
The plane has found a temporary home in the fair's Visual Arts Gallery as the centerpiece of an art exhibit by Kiel Johnson titled "Garden Variety: A Collaborative Paper Garden."
The exhibit runs through the end of the fair Aug. 13 in Costa Mesa.
Johnson, based in Los Angeles, calls his plane "Solo Squadron." It's a toddler-size craft resembling a 1930s crop duster but with some kid-ish elements, such as a "bug juice" flask and a lever for the plane to go up, down, twirl, flip or crash. Toward the tail is a hole labeled "access to access panel."
The tires are made by "Bad Year." A box resting below the plane has stickers from Bermuda and Area 51. Another sticker reads "Hindenburg: Germany or Combust!"
"People are so talented," one passerby remarked on a recent afternoon.
Speaking of people, Johnson wants your help.
He wants "Garden Variety" to bloom with paper creations. His goal during the fair is to make it the world's largest paper garden.
Already, many paper flowers have been installed in the garden plots throughout the exhibit. There's also a boat, a fruit and vegetable cart, trees and vines.
Fair officials and Johnson are inviting visitors to "create flowers, cars and anything else their heart desires using only construction paper, scissors and glue."
Craft times supervised by Johnson will be held from 1 to 4 p.m. Friday, Wednesday and Aug. 5 and 6. Others will be done randomly throughout the fair, officials said.
"I know some people will want to take their creations home, and I will set aside a few days toward the end of the fair to pick up their stuff," Johnson said in a news release. "But I want to encourage people to leave their stuff behind so that everyone can see what a beautiful piece of art everyone helped make."
Midway Moments is a recurring column chronicling the Orange County Fair.

U.S. Rep. Marion Berry wants to stamp out any speculation that he is thinking about retiring after his current term in office.
The speculation has been fueled by health concerns (an injury has him walking with the assistance of a cane), as well as Jason Willett indicating in the wake of his resignation as state Democratic Party chairman that he would like to run for Berry's seat someday.
Berry told the Arkansas Times today that he will run for re-election in 2008. He says he is enjoying being a part of the new Democratic majority in the House, and he wants to continue his work there.

Mithali Raj with 6028 runs has now become the highest run scorer of all-time in women's one-day internationals.
Australia skipper Meg Lanning believes her players will rise above the pressure, ahead of Wednesday's crunch Cricket World Cup clash with India at Bristol.
Raj, who made her global debut at the age of just 17, against Ireland in 1999, immediately made an impact by scoring a hundred in her first game in national colours. In the first ball of the 35th over, Lanning picked up a single off Goswami to complete her fifty.
Mithali replaced former England captain Charlotte Edwards who had scored 5992 runs.
With the win, Australia sealed its place in the semi-finals, while India was left with a must-win clash against New Zealand on Saturday.
Raj's average against Sri Lanka - the highest, by far, for any player with 500-plus runs against a team in women's ODIs. The International Cricket Council (ICC) also congratulated the India women's captain.
Raj announced her arrival on worldwide stage as a 16-year-old when she slammed her maiden hundred on debut against Ireland.
She passed Edwards' mark of 5,992 runs in 164 innings - 16 fewer than Edwards played before she retired from worldwide cricket previous year.
But that brought Raj to the crease, and she and Raut put on 157 runs for the second wicket before the subcontinent side fell away late on. In the ongoing Women's World Cup held in England, the India captain has again been in fine touch, notching up three fifties.
She took two catches against England on Sunday and scored 40 despite being in discomfort, but said she is ready to play.
After this loss, India are now placed at the fourth spot with eight points.
After a slow start, Raj looked in danger of having to wait at least another few days for the record when she was given out lbw to Jonassen on 11.

ok i just wrote this last night...it's definitely not finished...or is it? it might end up as a song or just another little ditty of mine that floats somewhere in my mind and somewhere on the internet
"like everybody else"
have you run out of blank pages?
are you scribbling over and over again
on a bunch of phone numbers never dialed?
are you trying to get through
an adult world
with the diary entries of a lonely child?
have you run out of magic spells?
are you conjuring up and calling to arms
an army of excuses why you procrastinate?
are you trying to get across the finish line
just to find
a reason to take a break and celebrate?
your intuition used to make you a magician
always knowing which box held the shiny treasure
your intelligence used to be your best defense
now your dumb delays your pleasure
and you've become like everybody else
and that was always your biggest fear
you're numb like everybody else
would it really matter if you would disappear?

Endless tasks wear me out. As long as there is an end in site, I'm fine. Otherwise I lose my motivation.
I'm not talking about things you have to keep doing over and over again. Laundering dirty clothes, washing dishes and vacuuming the floor fall into this category. Yeah, keeping things clean is a forever task but every now and then it's all done. I can stand back, pat myself on the back for a job well done and relax.
Weeding is a borderline case. Yes, it is theoretically possible to eliminate every weed from the lawn and flower beds on my one acre lot. However, having never reached the mythical weed-free state in the last 12 years, for me weeding is an endless task.
The jury is still out on whether or not writing the book is an endless task. I haven't had time to touch it for several weeks but have been thinking about it a lot. After I finally got a chance to work on it again I completely reorganized the first 160 pages. Thanks, Terri and Mitzi for all your constructive criticism. Now if I can just figure out where to go with the rest of it.
Completing the family tree is another endless task. If records exist for a person you add to your tree, a green leaf appears next to their name. No matter how much time I spend clicking those damn leaves, more pop up. A hefty percentage of new leaves lead to new additions to the tree and still more leaves to click.
Before the search began I knew next to nothing about my family beyond my grandparents, and very little about them. When I started researching my heritage, each new discovery was cause for celebration. Now I groan, click the leaves and keep my fingers crossed hoping for a dead-end.
Thanks to a message from one of his descendants, my theory about the identity of my paternal great grandfather has been discredited. The three boys in question were married and/or away from the house in Paris when my grandfather would have been conceived. I'm grateful for the information but even more in the dark about who he might have been.
The mystery of my great grandfather leaves a big hole but is not the end of the world. I'm slowly but surely making my way back through the trees of my other seven great grandparents. Perhaps I'll stumble across more clues to his identity along the way.
Turns out, I'm descended from royalty. Once you hit a royal line the records go back forever. I've traced one line back to Charlemagne and another back to the Tudors and Plantagenets. That's right. Royalty. From now on, you can call me...
