Hello Stuart,
What troubles me about your post is that you make broad
generalizations without backing evidence.
For example, what are the repressive dictates that you mention, and
why do you consider them repressive? I think it is not that Graham
has misunderstood you, but that you have misunderstood the church's
offical teachings.

Subject: Re: Catholic Church and Morality
Would not the Roman Catholic faithful, by
>definition, support Catholic policy and doctrines?
In recent weeks there have been numerous instances where the RC
faithful have openly protested the policies of the church (re: the
crisis in the priesthood) In recent years there has been a growing
number of RC faithful who have grown disenchanted with the more
repressive dictates of the RC church and have mounted oppostition to
them. Therefore I feel no guilt or sense of wrong from making the
statements I made. They are not malicious charges, but, if read
objectively, constructive criticism. Like I said, if one criticises
the government, he is not criticising the citizens. This is exactly
the same thing, and if anyone is offended then they are being a bit
over sensitive and taking it as a presonal attack when it is not. To
this end I would have to say that yes, Graham, you have misunderstood
ALso, I took the time to respond to your series of questions, will
you do likewise?

The music itself is more akin to progressive rock with indie rock roots. The line-up as of 2006 release is Jonathon Newby, Nicholas Newby, Aaron Smith, Eric Johnson, James Sefchek, and Philip Williams. They are known for complex song arrangements and intellectual subject matter, and cite influences as diverse as Pink Floyd, Queen, and The Cure. Brazil have released two full length albums and two EPs.

Look, I know you have had enough of this guy, but just in case you wanted to get a little deeper inside George Zimmerman's head, watch this interview.
Derrick Ashong of Fusion.net interviews Zimmerman at length, while it's pretty clear he's trying really hard to keep straight face. Like when Zimmerman explains "if this case taught me anything it is to withhold judgement, provide everyone with the benefit of the doubt…"
By this George Zimmerman means he learned that everyone else should provide George Zimmerman the benefit of the doubt, not that George Zimmerman should have given the benefit of the doubt to Trayvon Martin before he shot and killed him.
It all seems like a bad joke. Or maybe the setup to one of Seinfeld's: "knowing you is like going into the jungle, I don't know what I'll find next, and I'm real scared."

Multiple Dates
Dyslexia Diagnostic Assessment - City South campus
What is a diagnostic assessment?
A diagnostic assessment aims to confirm if you have dyslexia or not. It will provide detailed information about your cognitive profile, strengths and weakness. In some cases other Specific Learning Difficulties can be identified. You should only book a diagnostic assessment if you have been advised to do so by a member of the Enablement Team, following a dyslexia screening carried out here at BCU. If you are not sure, please email firstname.lastname@example.com.
What is the aim of a diagnostic assessment?
The aim of the assessment process is to investigate factors which may be affecting how you learn and identify whether there is a clear discrepancy between your general level of ability and your reading and writing attainment.
How long will the assessment take?
The assessment will take around 2.5 to 3 hours to complete depending upon the type and level of difficulties you experience. The completed report will be sent to you within 15 working days.
What happens during the assessment process?
The assessment process usually starts with an informal chat with you regarding some background information and then we carry out the diagnostic assessment.
Up-to date age appropriate standardised tests will be administered to investigate aspects of reading, writing, spelling, and phonological awareness, speed of processing and memory and fine motor skills.
At the end of the assessment you will be given feedback on your performance but you will not be told at this point whether you have dyslexia or not. This is because the assessor will need to calculate the scores and analyse overall performance. The completed report will contain the results of your performance and a diagnosis.
A link to a pre-assessment questionnaire will be in the confirmation email you will receive upon booking your appointment. Please complete this questionnaire electronically and send this to email@example.com as soon as possible. Please ensure you complete the pre-assessment questionnaire as this will provide key background information and alert the assessor to any co-occurring difficulties.

MOSI's Community Education Coordinator Vivian McIlrath led the way on the Sky Trail Zip Line on a recent episode of The Mayor's Hour. Vivian stopped to pose with two of the shoot's camera operators (Karey Poulos - left, Frank Crum - right) after helping them with their safety harnesses.
CTTV's Frank Crum carries his camera gear 65 feet above the MOSI campus in anticipation of capturing Mayor Buckhorn's 350 flight for The Mayor's Hour.
Tampa Mayor Bob Buckhorn didn't need too much help from MOSI's Vivian McIlrath in getting the zip line harness over the mayoral necktie. Within minutes they were all strapped up and ready to go.
Fear was not a factor for Mayor Buckhorn as he logged 700 total feet in his round-trip zip line flight at MOSI. The zip line has been a popular addition to MOSI's Sky Trail Ropes Course.
After traveling 65 feet above the ground on the zip line, what's another238,900 miles to the surface of the moon? Mayor Buckhorn tried on a Lunar Surface Activity Suit atMission: Moon Base, a lunar colony experience of the future at MOSI that is partially sponsored by NASA.

Citing unnamed sources familiar with the situation, The Wall Street Journal is reporting Google is close to wrapping up a two-year probe by the Federal Trade Commission into its Internet search business mostly unscathed.
The development could prove disappointing to rivals hoping the big cap Internet name would become entangled in antitrust litigation, the report said.
The FTC may end its investigation as soon as this week. In return, Google would carry out voluntary changes satisfy some of the agency's concerns, according to one of the people cited by the newspaper.
The pact would mean Google would avoid a so-called consent decree, a formal FTC settlement in which the company would agree to certain terms.
Still, Google isn't entirely off the hook. It may have to sign a consent decree on a narrower probe related to its handling of mobile-technology patents it acquired with its purchase of handset maker Motorola Mobility, the newspaper said.
The reports said The FTC believes it has evidence that Google improperly declined to award patent licenses to some mobile-device competitors and sought court injunctions against them to stop the products from being sold, another person familiar with the matter has said, according to the newspaper.
Google is expected to make a formal commitment to fairly license its patents to competitors, similar to agreement made by Microsoft Corp. and Apple Inc. .
But for Google, this amounts to a slap in the wrist compared to its giant search engine business.
Wall Street may find these developments at least mildly positive for Google, with its shares up nearly 1% in premarket trades.

Eva Salber is Professor of Family and Community Medicine at the Duke University School of Medicine in Durham, North Carolina. Last year I had the privilege of visiting Dr. Salber at her home in nearby Chapel Hill and discussing her important work promoting the role of lay health care volunteers in community medicine. The following report is drawn from my conversation with this truly remarkable woman.
"The great majority of illnesses," Dr. Salber observed as we sat in the comfortable downstairs family room of her home, "are never seen by a physician. The real primary care is provided by one's family, close neighbors, and friends. Furthermore, in every community there are certain people to whom others turn for advice, counsel, and support. I call such individuals health facilitators. And one of the most important things any doctor or other health professional can do is to find these people and offer them recognition, information, and support."
Eva Salber, you see, is a champion of the lay health facilitator. She has taught medical professionals from many countries how to help and benefit from these unsung heroes and heroines who, in fact, have always provided a great deal (if not the majority) of the world's health care. Dr. Salber is quick to say, however, that she isn't the force behind the "barefoot doctors." Rather, she has simply pointed out their existence, and suggested ways they might be given the recognition and support they deserve.
Witch Doctors and "Ill Wishers"
Eva's interest in lay health care was kindled by her experiences as a staff physician at one of South Africa's first Institutes of Family and Community Health (the forerunners of the neighborhood health centers in the U.S.). "We learned very quickly," she recalled, "that the local medicine men could deal with certain kinds of troubles better than we could. They were much more effective in handling family and personal problems because they were part of the local culture. And, of course, they knew just what to do with afflictions that involved the client's belief system. If a woman felt that she was being poisoned by an ill-wisher, for instance, we might be able to name her symptoms, be we wouldn't be able to cure her. We learned to refer such cases to the witch doctors. They in turn sent us any patients with the sort of ailments — they called them 'town diseases' — for which our tools were more effective, including VD and other infections that could be cleared up with antibiotics. My great triumph came when the local witch doctor sent one of his wives to me for treatment."
After her introduction to the health facilitator concept, Eva began to notice the same phenomenon wherever she went — including Boston, where she served as director for a health program in a low-income, inner-city housing project. "In spite of the hardships such as poverty, broken families, crime, unemployment, and poor education that housing project residents had to contend with, the neighborhood could boast of an active, effective network of health facilitators who spent a good deal of their time helping others," said Eva. So she put together an advisory committee for her program and appointed the community's health facilitators as members, placing these people in positions of responsibility and power for the first time in many cases. The move was a success. "I've seen it time and time again," observed Dr. Salber. "People want to give, and to be given, the opportunity to help. When provided with that chance, they'll blossom before your eyes."
The Health Advisor Project
"By the time I came to Duke," said Eva, "I was convinced that there are natural health facilitators in every community. So I decided to see whether I could develop a program to help others identify these individuals, to supply them with any information they needed, and to link them with useful groups and agencies in the community."
Her project took place in two villages in rural Durham County, and in an adjoining urban fringe area. A questionnaire had already been designed for a health survey of the region, so Eva simply tacked on an additional question: "Other than doctors, who do you know around here to whom people go for advice on health matters?" As soon as the results came in, Eva began knocking on the doors of the people mentioned, asking if they'd be interested in participating in a program that would give them the opportunity to meet other amateur helpers and to learn methods of aiding their neighbors more effectively. Nearly all the people Eva contacted accepted her invitation.
A Very Special Group
"We ended up involving 39 health facilitators in the program," Eva continued. "They ranged in age from 16 to 70. Two-thirds were women, 28% were housewives, 13% were professional health workers, and 10% were ministers. They tended to be exceptionally mature, secure, caring people, but in terms of age, race, and education, they represented a typical cross section of the community's residents.
"During our first meeting, which was held in the basement of a local office building, we talked about the program's overall goals and asked the facilitators to suggest topics of interest. Then in subsequent meetings we held workshops on one or more of those subjects, with the discussions led by the most knowledgeable and interesting people we could find in the fields involved. The areas we covered included self-diagnosis, over-the-counter drugs, diabetes, hypertension, sickle-cell anemia, childhood illnesses, folk remedies, first aid, growth and development, nutrition, sexuality, substance abuse, and health promotion. In addition, we had a session on community resources led by someone from a local information and referral organization."
Furthermore, Eva's group held discussions based upon brief tape-recorded dramas staging hypothetical situations, such as one in which a woman tells her sick neighbor that her illness "sounds a lot like what I had" and gives her a leftover prescription drug. Four program coordinators were also appointed to maintain support and communication among the participants between the meetings. To do so, each coordinator would visit a number of the facilitators in their homes once a week to discuss and deliver information packets on topics requested by the lay workers (the most popular subjects included angina, sickle-cell anemia, VD, hypertension, heart disease, arthritis, asthma, and cancer).
The Facilitator's Role
In addition to providing education and support for the community's lay helpers through her program, Eva studied the nature of the workers' cases. She found that they were handling everything from colds and other minor illnesses to problems as serious as cancer, alcoholism, and attempted suicide.
"The range of difficulties that people brought to the facilitators was much wider than the range brought to doctors," Eva explains. "Only about 3% of physician visits are for psychological ailments, yet there's a much greater need for such help. One has only to read Ann Landers' column to realize that people yearn for assistance with almost every conceivable type of individual, social, and family anxiety. And if a person with multiple problems does go to a physician, it will almost certainly be only the physiological distress that receives attention. We learn that, if we want to see a doctor, we must focus our concern on a physical symptom. A woman might tell her physician that she has a bladder infection, but she might tell a health facilitator that she had a fight with her husband, lost her job, and has a bladder infection."
In fact the lay people in Eva's study (and remember, these are individuals who aren't paid, for their services, and who in most cases are holding down full-time jobs and caring for families of their own) were asked for help about three times a week, on the average. In other words, the 39 facilitators in the project dealt with about 6,000 requests for aid and advice each year!
Facilitators in the Clinic
Eva is enthusiastic about the possibility of lay workers' assisting in clinical situations. "Let's say you're running a well-baby clinic," she suggested, "and you know a health facilitator who is also an excellent mother. Now suppose you have a neighborhood teenager just coming in with her first baby. You could ask the more experienced mother if she would be willing to advise the younger girl, and then ask the teenager if she'd like to be able to call on the older woman for help.
"The same thing could be done for people with asthma, diabetes, hypertension, or any other chronic disease. Just match a newly diagnosed patient with someone who has dealt with the problem successfully. I think such a system would be good for health professionals, too. They could learn a great deal from facilitators about the dimensions of illness that are never seen in a clinic — contributing factors such as marital and parenting problems, money worries, unemployment, poor housing, and so on."
Pillars of the Community
I asked Eva (who is now in her 60's) what she's learned from her experiences. She threw back her head and laughed. "If possible I've become more convinced than ever that, if you place these facilitators on an equal footing with professional health workers, if you show them respect, if you give them the opportunities to define and solve the problems in their communities and to help other people, they'll accomplish things you never dreamed were possible. And it takes so little to support these powerful, natural helpers.
"Furthermore, I've learned that health facilitators are everywhere. They can and should be used in every country, but particularly in those areas where professional services are few and there are many problems. These individuals can help inform professionals of the true needs and priorities of the region's people, they can extend services to those who need them most, they can support self-help activities among those who come to them for advice, and they can assist in guiding people to the appropriate professional care when necessary.
"I've learned that the natural helpers are real pillars of their communities. They are a resource that can no longer be ignored."

Pritchardville Elementary School participated in Anti-bullying month in October by teaching students how to handle bullying.
Fifth-grade teachers encouraged students to write essays about preventing bullying. Students were to write from the principal's point of view on how to prevent bullying. The students in the Advanced Math, Engineering and Science program were encouraged to write a persuasive essay on why bullying needs to stop.
The overall winner was Enrique Perez, who wrote about the way he would handle bullying if he was principal.
"My teacher helped me write my essay and I think bullies should get in-school suspension for a week," Perez said.
Perez also suggests in his essay that there should be a boxing match for the bullies.
Michelle Patino was named the second-place winner. She is a part of the A.M.E.S program. Patino said she looked on the Internet to research her essay topic.
"I found a poem by a boy in England who was bullied," Patino said. "We should tell an adult when we see bullying happen at school and we could put up posters to help stop bullying."
Pritchardville Elementary School opened three years ago and has about 95 fifth-graders. Each fifth-grade student wrote an essay and the top four were chosen by the teachers. The final two winners were chosen by the school counselor Elizabeth Easterling and Assistant Principal Mary Beth Roulston.
By Enrique Perez
Every school has bullies. What are happening now in my school are a referral and a phone call home. Bullies are suspended for two days and they have to talk to the counselor and to the principal. I have a better plan!
Now this is what we should do for bullies. We should have in school suspension, lose recess for one week, and not get to go on field trips. I think it would be cool to have a boxing match for the bullies and everyone could watch and for the bad kids too. They would not bully after watching the boxing match. The bullies would also have to copy the full Dictionary. It would be boring and not fun for them so it would be a stellar idea.
How can we put a stop to bullies? We could make a law to not bully anymore. The bullies do not like to lose field trips. The bullies do not like in school suspension. Bullies also do not like to talk to the police when they are in trouble so if we change the law then we won't have bullies in our schools any more.
By Michelle Patino
There are many types of bullying. What we need to do is stop bullying and prevent the consequences to the victim. There are different types of consequences to the victim like suicide, dropping out of school, and the victim becoming a bully.
The first reason why we need to stop bullying is to prevent suicide. Parents can't handle having to hear the bad news that their child has died. Over one hundred suicide attempts happen in one year. Schools have been asking for parents to listen when their child mentions something about suicide.
The second reason why we need to stop bullying is because students and children keep on dropping out of school. Once students decide to drop out of school, they get bad grades and a bad report. Seven percent to fifty-five percent of students in all grades drop out of school in a year. We need to stop this.
The third reason why we need to stop bullying is to prevent the victim from becoming a bully. The victim becomes a bully because he or she is tired of all the picking and bullying. They just think that they have the right to become a bully themselves and pick on others. We need to stop this.
As you can see, these are all the types of consequences to the victim. These effects on the victim might make her or him lose their good reputation. Bullying needs to be stopped! Stop the nonsense!

A flood is unlike any other disaster we know in northeastern Colorado. Tornadoes are swift, terrifying and vicious. They tear through a community and, in minutes, leave behind destruction and heartbreak. Within hours, that community begins the process of assessing damage and sifting through the rubble. Within days, we have begun cleaning up and within weeks, we begin to rebuild. But a tornado is a purely natural disaster. We live with them because we are tied to the thin topsoil of the prairie through generations of hard labor and prayer.
Wildfires, while no less frightening, are either the result of nature's wrath or man's malfeasance. And, depending on which circumstance caused them, leave us either stunned and humbled or furious.
But a flood of the magnitude of which we're experiencing is entirely different. At first, there was the deep, rumbling fear of the unknown. Upstream, the rivers raged and tore through towns like a terrible, conquering and savage army. Loud, swift and deadly, the waters destroyed roads and swept homes and lives away in the blink of an eye. Here on the prairie, we could only watch, knowing that when all that water got to us, it was going to be awful. We had a few days to ponder what the damage could be. And that fear turned to despair when the water overran the South Platte's banks. Suddenly, we were without sewer and there was a real threat the we could lose electricity. Fifteen thousand of us could possibly be thrust 150 years into the past.
While the loss of electric power never came to pass, we were still left in a dangerous and frightening position. The modern sanitation we've come to rely on to keep us clean and nearly disease free was gone for an entire week. This flood ground on like a siege. And we were left without answers. What happened? Could have it been avoided? How long before life is returned to normal?
And in the muddy, roiling waters of the South Platte, I found something that surprised and delighted me. I found Love.
Love is a marvelous and powerful force. In the past week, I've seen Love manifested in ways that have left me amazed and deeply thankful for the community I live in. I have seen Love in hundreds of ways, from magnificent displays of generosity to small gestures of kindness.
And two days in a row, I've seen Love exhibited in the most extraordinarily human forms. Friday, I attended the funeral of a woman I've known and loved for over forty years. Her friends and family gathered in the church she had worshiped in for decades to remember her as a strong, beautiful and courageous woman. The tears and sadness were proof of the Love she had for her God, her family and her community. Though we were bereft of her wisdom and humor on this earthly plane, we were drawn together in Love, through her Love.
Saturday, I attended the civil ceremony of two dear friends. The Love and courage of these two women has been an inspiration to me for years. Their family and friends gathered to pledge our strength and experience to them in the church they call home. The minister who presided over the ceremony spoke of God's Love for all of us. She encouraged us to use Love in our relationships and to lean on Love when we were discouraged by the circumstances we found ourselves in this week.
Two days. Two churches. Two magnificent examples of Love, one in grief and one of joy and surrounding it all, a community not torn apart by a natural disaster, but drawn together by it.
In the coming days, we will be tested by this flood. We will be tempted to act with anger and recrimination. We'll want to despair, grumble, shout and place blame. But if we can just find a small measure of the perspective I was so honored to been given this past few days and remember that Love flows through this community with a strength the river could never match, we can act with grace and understanding, not anger.

Emory University study ranks Astros fans 6th in loyalty
Over the last five years, Detroit has averaged about 2.8 million fans per year compared to about 2.4 million for the Astros. But according to the Team Market Report the Astros have priced their tickets about 12% higher. The end result is that the revenues of the two teams are fairly similar. The key difference is that Detroit's revenues are driven by a 53% winning rate compared to the Astros rate of about 43%. Based purely on the quality of the clubs and adjusting for market size, we would expect that Detroit's revenue would far exceed the Astros. The fact that they don't suggests that the Astros' have the larger and more resilient fan base.
It covers the last five years of season data, so you can bet that, were they to take the last two years their results would be vastly different...
5 comments:
Yay we won something!

Sixth ain't winning. More like "yay, we finally beat Detroit"
- July 15, 2013 at 2:07 PM
- Nick said...
Isn't that the time period when Detroit collapsed on itself while Houston grew? Both in population and economically.
But yes, I am excited to beat Detroit.
- July 15, 2013 at 6:24 PM
- Blinutne said...
Detroit's population has been in steady decline since the 1950s. Houston's population, meanwhile, has grown in every census it's ever been a part of. So this has been a trend for a long time.
I was really happy to see this. It makes me feel good that, by this measure at least, Astros fans are far more loyal than Rangers fans.
- July 15, 2013 at 9:35 PM
Rangers have been the best team in baseball for 3 years, are placed in the middle of one of the 5 largest markets in the country, play in a warm weather market with no cold or snow to worry about, sell tickets at reasonable prices, and have sold 80% of their tickets this year.

LOUISVILLE, K.Y. – August 4, 2014 – Samsung Electronics America, Inc., a market leader and award-winning innovator in consumer electronics, unveiled its PGA Championship TV App, the first-ever event-based golf experience app designed for the Samsung Smart TV platform, offering a new and interactive way for golf fans to immerse themselves in the PGA Championship (August 7-10). Available on 2013 and 2014 Samsung Smart TVs, the new app developed in collaboration with Turner Sports, gives viewers access to not only scoring, player and course information, but also exclusive behind-the-scenes and tournament-related content from the PGA Championship. The PGA Championship App is also available on select Samsung Galaxy mobile devices for those who want to stay up-to-date with the latest action on the go.
From the very first shot at Valhalla Golf Club in Louisville, Kentucky, the PGA Championship TV App will bring the action right to user's homes. Consumers will be able to dive deeper into the competition from the comfort of their couches using their Samsung Smart TV and Galaxy mobile devices for exclusive content, including, but not limited to:
- Broadcast Mode, which allows users to complement and customize their PGA Championship viewing experience. While watching the championship (on TNT and CBS), Broadcast Mode will let users toggle between alternate LIVE video feeds (i.e. Par 3 Cam and Marquee Group), launch an interactive leaderboard, and keep tabs on their favorite golfers. It is the first time this technology has been offered in the sport of golf.
- Pick the Hole Location Challenge Hosted by Jack Nicklaus, which lets users cast a live vote for the hole location to be used on No. 16 during the final round of the PGA Championship on August 10. For the first time during a major sporting event, fans using Samsung Smart TVs can vote in real time using interactive content triggered during the live broadcast from August 7-9, using their Samsung TV remote. Voting will conclude August 9 at 7 p.m. EDT.
- Multiscreen Functionality, which allows consumers to seamlessly pair their TV and mobile devices through the companion Android app to create a robust golf experience. They can view the live championship action and exclusive content on their mobile devices, share the action with family and friends by casting live video streams, custom leaderboards and event highlights to their 2014 Smart TVs.
"Samsung is thrilled to partner with the PGA and bring the sport of golf to life for Samsung Smart TV and mobile device users," says Joe Stinziano, Executive Vice President of Samsung Electronics America. "Whether using a tablet, mobile phone or one of our latest Smart TVs, we continue to look at ways to elevate the sports viewing experience at home. The PGA Championship App is a great example of how Samsung can connect its products across categories to bring golf fans closer to the game they love."
During the PGA Championship, Samsung will be on-site at the championship with a massive experiential area. Featuring 23 Curved UHD TVs, as well as the latest Galaxy Tab S devices and NX compact system cameras, the Samsung Experience allows attendees to catch up on the action, share moments from the day's events and even recharge not only themselves but also their devices. In particular, they will be able to watch live footage of the championship on a super-sized, crystal-clear, 16-foot curved display consisting of nine 65" Curved UHD TVs or participate in a "Perfect Shot Challenge," rallying golf fans to take a 'chip shot' from a custom-designed 13th hole bunker.
"The innovations from Samsung and Turner Sports in conjunction with the 2014 PGA Championship, represent the next generation of consumer electronics," says PGA CEO Pete Bevacqua. "Whether on site, at home, or on their mobile devices, fans will be connected to our championships unlike ever before."
As part of the expanded "The Curve Changes Everything" ad campaign, Samsung will feature TV spots during the PGA Championship telecast, and highlight the top play during each day of competition with the "Samsung Shot of the Day." In addition, the campaign will feature a print presence in the August issue of Golf Digest, digital components on PGA.com and Yahoo! Sports' Golf Channel, and out-of-home (OOH) components.

text: Gordon Erberts, '49, gives Loyola $1.5 million to support mission and ministry April 3, 2014 | By Nick Alexopulos Gordon Erberts, '49 (photo by Zack Alexopulos) Loyola University Maryland will benefit from a $1.5 million planned gift from Gordon Erberts, '49, to support programs and initiatives in Campus Ministry and the office of mission integration. Erberts, of Toluca Lake, Calif., was inspired to make the gift after reflecting on his experience at Loyola and the rigorous Jesuit education that prepared him for success. "Loyola did something for me, and I want to do something for them," said Erberts. "The Jesuits are darn good teachers. They did a good job with me, and I want to pass that on to today's young people to give them a head start on life." His gift benefits multiple initiatives focused on mission and ministry, primarily through four endowed funds. Loyola will create the Erberts Campus Ministry Endowed Fund to support the programmatic needs of Campus Ministry and the Erberts Assistance Fund for Student Retreats to provide grants to students who require financial assistance to attend campus-sponsored retreats. In addition, Loyola will create the Erberts Ignatian Retreat Endowment Fund to support the Ignatian retreat program for Loyola faculty, staff, and administrators. Finally, Loyola will create the Erberts Pilgrimage Endowed Fund, which will support programs that promote the Catholic and Jesuit activities and mission of Loyola. The remaining dollars will be allocated equally among faculty development initiatives, student integration efforts, and related publication expenses. "Exceptional students from all over the world choose Loyola because of our commitment to the quality and value of a challenging Jesuit education," said Rev. Brian F. Linnane, S.J., Loyola's president. "Mr. Erberts recognizes that commitment, and his tremendous generosity will provide enriching opportunities for members of our community to strengthen their connections to one another and our mission to serve others." Erberts was a chemistry and modern biology major at Loyola and commuted to campus from his home in Baltimore's Ten Hills neighborhood. He began his career in flooring sales before switching to selling mutual funds. He moved to California in 1960 and continued in the mutual fund business until his retirement. Erberts' gift supports Loyola's ongoing Bright Minds, Bold Hearts comprehensive campaign to raise $100 million to grow Loyola's endowment, scholarship funds, and faculty positions, and grow Messina, Loyola's living learning program for first-year students.

This weekend my husband's grandmother turns 87! When I looked up how old she would turn this year I was shocked by the number. For as long as I've known her (14 years) she has been such a goer and doer. How on earth did she get to be 87? We visited 'Grammie' this past summer in New Hampshire and Maine. It was the first time we'd seen her in a few years and it was bittersweet to see her in decline for the first time since I've known her. So we (and by 'we', I guess I mean, 'I') decided to make her a quilt. It's something I've wanted to do for a long time.
I made the label using AmandaJean's tutorial. It was SO ridiculously easy. I am finally committed to doing this for every quilt. In the past I have been terrible – I never do it. Honestly. I am finally getting my act together.
Grammie decided when she became a great-grandma that she wanted to be called Nonna. Both her parents and her husband's parents were Italian immigrants to the United States in the early 20th Century. So even though she grew up in Maine, her family was very proudly Italian. (See? You can tell by the tomato harvest.) I'm glad she has passed that heritage on to her great-grandchildren and glad that they will always remember their Nonna.

I first ate dim sum in 1968 at Nom Wah, on Doyers Street in New York's Chinatown. (The place is still there.) The appeal of the service style was immediate and tremendous — why couldn't every meal be an uninterrupted stream of small, exotic dishes brought to you on a gleaming (or at least functional) cart? I'm quite sure that I said, either on that visit or one of the frequent ones that followed, "Someone needs to do this with non-Chinese food."
Tasting menus and tapas bars came close, but nothing quite captured the spirit of the dim-sum cart. Until last year, when State Bird Provisions opened on Fillmore Street in San Francisco.

However many employers have not made the connection between rising health care costs and office environments. Yet another study about the increased risks of cancer due to prolonged sitting might get their attention.

Travel information Hostel Guatemala
A youth hostel (also known hostel) is a simple variant of a hotel using of dorms. Usually there are several people in a room or room in bunk beds. As a result, hostels often a lot cheaper than hotels. Many hostels also have separate rooms for couples. Hostels are very popular with backpackers and backpackers. Boarding houses or hostels often have an atmosphere and a lot of social interaction between guests. So travel is often exchanged visits in the vicinity of the hostel, or other places travelers want to visit. The simple design and limited comfort hostel a lot cheaper than hotels.

Summer Of Code 2009
From GNUstepWiki
Revision as of 21:11, 8 March 2009; view current revision
←Older revision | Newer revision→
←Older revision | Newer revision→
Summer Of Code 2009
The Summer Of Code is a Google program that offers student developers stipends to create new freely available programs or to help currently established projects. It would be an excellent opportunity for GNUstep to fund some developments.
Joint Application?
The idea of a joint application for GNUstep, Étoilé, GAP and opengroupware.org has been brought up. A lot of the projects that were accepted last year were joint applications (e.g. GNU, GNOME, KDE), so it might improve our chances. Please discuss!
Here are some ideas -- Feel free to add more
- Porting
- Porting WebKit (using GCC 4.x with ObjC++ support) should be a lot easier by now (see http://lwat.blogspot.com/2008/11/redistributable-webkit.html and http://lwat.blogspot.com/2009/02/opencflite-476171-release.html)
- helping to improve Simple WebKit which does not require gcc 4.xx and Obj-C++ and has less dependencies and a much smaller footprint than full WebKit
- General Improvements
- Windows support
- GNUstepWeb (add script language support, etc)
- Compare current API with Leopard's (Mac OS X 10.5) API, indicate which classes are missing, and summarize the current status of the existing ones, then work to complete them... ;) The best would be to have a tool which parses all headers (both from Cocoa and GNUstep) and outputs differences in HTML (XML probably too by the way). This would summarize missing classes, missing or partially implementated methods in existing classes and GNUstep-specific extensions. Eventually we should include links to the related documentation on both GNUstep and Cocoa web sites.
- Craft a system which allows to distribute GNUstep to the various packaging systems (rpm, debian, ports, etc.) on various distributions (Ubuntu, Red Hat, FreeBSD, etc.) with a snap and without knowledge of the specific packaging system. This system should be able to distribute GNUstep libraries, and existing or new applications written with it. The user should be able to choose how often this is done: on request, on each release, on in regular intervals, tracking a source code repository. Ideally, changes to the library/app's sources are minimized and/or calculated at runtime.
- AppKit
- Themes for GNUstep. This includes coming up with a general concept for the handling of AppKit subclasses in themes, the moving of all drawing code from the GUI classes into theme methods, replacing all hard coded panels with Gorm/NIB files and as the prove of the concept a native Windows theme (Or at least one theme that looks sufficiently different from standard GNUstep).
- Base
- Misc
- Create a AJAX Framework for GNUstepWeb (similar to what Project Wonder provides for WebObjects
- More Ideas
We need mentor(s) to manage the volunteers...
- Quentin Mathé
- t.b.a.

Steve, I don't remember ever seeing a stinger hood with a hood tach. It is a fiberglass hood, they used lightweight springs. Not sure the hood would stay up! Glad you are going with the motion look. Retro is in. Everything old is new again.

We have no inside information that it is the case, but some curious events happened this weekend at the summer meeting of the Pennsylvania Republican Party:
- John McCain at the last minute backed out of a previously scheduled appearance at the meeting, for the stated purpose of voting on the immigration reform bill on the Senate floor. Given the precarious state of the legislation even before it failed, his vote surely was needed, but on the other hand, it has not stopped him from missing votes, as showed here earlier in the week.
- Tom Ridge gave the closing speech at the meeting this morning, and was introduced as "the most popular politician in Pennsylvania" and was given a standing ovation. One would think that someone that popular in Pennsylvania would have some coattails and sway in getting people to support the candidate he has endorsed and campaigned for. Well, if you thought that you would be wrong. While only a portion of the Republican leadership voted, Rudy Giuliani overwhelmingly won the straw poll, with 87 votes. Fred Thompson was a distant second with 40 votes; Mitt Romney received 12 votes and Newt Gingrich ten. John McCain received only 7 votes. (Ron Paul, Tommy Thompson, Tom Tancredo, Mike Huckabee, and Sam Brownback each received less than 5). Not only that, there is also the vague report by the Patriot-News that "The fact that it didn't mean anything doesn't mean the straw poll was without controversy, though. … And others believe it was an unsuccessful attempt by some party leaders to help U.S. Sen. John McCain's office."
- Lastly, a Patriot-News interview with Tom Ridge showed him starting to turn away from McCain on McCain's signature issue of Iraq.:
Time is running out for success in Iraq, said former Gov. Tom Ridge, adding his voice to the growing number of leading Republicans saying that the current American strategy in Iraq is not working.
"There will be a major readjustment, even from the White House on down" if progress is not achieved within a couple months, predicted Ridge during an interview today.
"There is very little sand left in the hourglass of Iraq," said the former Homeland Security secretary, who said patience even among Republicans is wearing thin for the unpopular war.
"There's more sand at the bottom of the hourglass than at the top, and at some point of time…somebody's going to have to make a decision on when or how we make a withdrawal" he said.
It's worth remembering at this point that Ridge was the person McCain had in the spin room talking about his candidacy after the first debate. He's also someone who has been floated as a VP candidate with McCain should McCain take the nomination. For him to back off on Iraq like this is something that should be taken seriously. While Ridge has said previously that he has policy disagreements with McCain, it's hard to imagine it on an issue as crucial as this.
If McCain's serious and significant list of political allies cannot help him get any more than this level of support – and possibly even backfire – there can only be two logical implications: either the endorsements do not mean anything or those endorsing him are abandoning him. My gut says that the former is far more likely than the latter now, but it's probably still far too early to tell for sure.

A Morgan Stanley managing director was arrested and charged with a hate crime for allegedly threatening and stabbing a taxi driver of Middle Eastern descent back in December over a cab fare dispute from the city to his multi-million dollar Connecticut home, the Connecticut Post reports.
From the CTPost:
Darien police charged William Bryan Jennings, 47, of Knollwood Lane, with second-degree assault, theft of services and second-degree intimidation based on race or bigotry. He was released after posting $9,500 bond and was to appear at court March 7. Jennings denied the allegations and through his attorney, Eugene Riccio, said he is the victim in the case.
Police say Jennings, who is currently the co-head of fixed income capital markets at Morgan Stanley, refused to pay a $200 cab fair and then threatened the driver and used racial slurs, according to the CTPost.
The police also say that the cab driver then drove off with Jennings still in the backseat to find a cop to settle the dispute, but when the taxi driver stuck his hand into the backseat window he was stabbed by Jennings with a penknife, the report said.
An attorney for Jennings denied the allegations saying that after disputing the fare, which he says was actually $300, Jennings was abducted by the driver who was speeding, running stop signs and red lights in an attempt to drop him off back in the city, the report said. The attorney also said Jennings got out his penknife and demanded to be set free because he was afraid, but the driver tried to take the knife and was accidentally cut while putting his hand through the window.
We called Jennings' desk at Morgan Stanley for comment and we were told he was not there. A spokesperson for Morgan Stanley said he has been placed on leave.
