I think India will win it. They seem the favorites to me. Having said that my gut feel hasn't been working too well since the beginning of the quarter finals. All my predictions since the WI-Pak QF, barring the SL-NZ SF, have turned out to be wrong

Your strategies against other teams like Aussies , Pommmies and Kiwis who just dont bother to ever learn to play spin in subcontinent will never work against India. Got it ?
Your actually lucky that Murali is confident of playing tomorrows game.
Though I wont be suprised if he misses out , the way Shoaib Akhtar missed out shockingly and also if he underperforms like Afridi and throws away the match to please his inlaws who are Indians.lol.

Randiv has got a loser's attitude anyway, won't be a big factor in the game. He gave up and bowled a no ball to make India win instead of fighting till the end like a man in an ODI game.
Matthews has been ruled out, but Randiv has replaced him in the squad. So no Vaas.
Presumably they will have to play Perera or Randiv at #7, and the #8 will be decided on whether they want to play the extra seamer or spinner.
Given that Herath hasn't impressed me all that much, and I think the Sri Lankan lower order needs all the help it can get, I'd go with a 7-11 of Perera, Randiv/Kulasekara, Malinga, Murali, Mendis.

Dude good spin bowling troubled India a lot in the semi-final. In fact only Gul (and Razzaq) was totally wayward in the semi-final otherwise the Indian batsmen looked totally at sea against the other bowlers (mostly spinners). I think I agree with Migara that you haven't really watched cricket EVER.
Afridi's in laws are Indian?????

Bayesian measurement invariance?
Mplus Discussion
Confirmatory Factor Analysis
Fredrik Falkenstr—m
posted on Thursday, November 21, 2013 - 11:40 pm
Dear Drs MuthÕn,
Is it possible to estimate a Bayesian multi group invariance model such as described in Mplus web note no 17, that also estimates correlated residuals with zero mean and small variance priors as described in the article "Bayesian Structural Equations Modeling: A More Flexible Representation of Substantive Theory" separately for each group?
I have so far only been able to specify a model that constrains the residuals and residual correlations to be equal across groups, but this model has very poor fit.

Are you using MNIXTURE KNOWNCLASS? Have you mentioned the residuals and residual covariances in the class part of the model, for example,
y1 y2;
y1 WITH y2;
y1 y2;
y1 WITH y2;
The default is to hold these values equal across classes.

Dear Drs. MuthÕns,
I have some questions about the Bayesian approach to measurement noninvariance (approximate measurement noninvariance) implemented in Mplus.
1.In Muthen and Asparouhov (2013) paper, it says that if a measurement parameter is significantly different from its average across groups, it is considered as noninvariance. What kind of test statistic is used in mplus to test this?
2.Based on user guide 5.33 example, it seems that all factor loading parameters are freely estimated (i.e., there is no equality constraint to a reference indicator across groups) and then differences of parameters relative to its average across group are tested. My question is that how factor scale in each group is determined when all factor loadings are freely estimated. Factor variance is standardized?
3.In frequentist approach, when we correctly choose an invariant factor loading as a reference indicator and fix it to 1 across groups, we can say that factors are on the same metric across groups. If approximate measurement invariance allows to vary all factor loading parameters across groups, I wonder whether estimated factor loadings are on the same metric or not. Could you let me know about this?
Thanks a lot in advance!!
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Sunday, December 08, 2013 - 4:46 pm
1. Essentially a z-test.
2. The factor metric is set by fixing the factor variances to 1 in one group. UG ex 5.33 fixes them in the 10th group.
3. They are on the same metric to the approximation given by the small-variance prior.
Note also the alignment possibility presented in
Asparouhov, T. and MuthÕn, B. (2013). Multiple-group factor analysis alignment. Forthcoming in Structural Equation Modeling.
and also discussed in
van de Schoot, R., Tummers, L., Lugtig, P., Kluytmans, A., Hox, J. & MuthÕn, B. (2013). Choosing between Scylla and Charybdis? A comparison of scalar, partial and the novel possibility of approximate measurement invariance. Frontiers in Psychology, 4, 1-15. doi: 10.3389/fpsyg.2013.00770.

Respected Prof. Muthen,
I am trying to use BSEM to establish approximate MI for four latent variables(LV). Two LVs have 4 items each & two other LVs have 3 items each. The problem I am facing is systematic approach to establish MI for multiple LVs. I am giving difference priors for the factor loadings and the item-intercepts with model=allfree.
While it is easy to manage BSEM for one LV, The moment I introduce the second LV the PPP value which was above 20 goes to zero. How to figure out where the problem is after introducing new LVs. Is it in the prior variance for DIFF? It becomes a greater challenge when I introduce the third LV when the model doesn't converge. So may I kindly request you for: what is the step by step approach for establishing approx MI when handling multiple LVs.Please advice. My sincere gratitude in advance.

Before you investigate measurement invariance, you want to (1) investigate each group separately with respect to all the latent variable constructs. (2) Then you can study invariance for each construct and (3) then invariance for the set of constructs. If step 1 and 2 have good fit, step 3 is likely to also have good fit.
posted on Saturday, January 18, 2014 - 4:40 pm
Dear Prof. Muthen. Thanks a lot for the quick response.
1.)Should step 1 and 2 be established in ML or BAYES? In ML when I am checking the constructs for each group I can use MODINDICES to note if there are any residual covariances which could improve fit. However if I use BAYES I don't have MODINDICES. So it becomes a challenge to identify the reason for poor fit. So how to improve fit in BAYES.
2.) Moreover if I use BAYES for step 1 and 2 I ought to use informative priors for improved fit. Assuming that I have fit for individual groups; Now when I come to invariance checking should I still keep these informative priors or just use the DO DIFF alone for priors?
posted on Saturday, January 18, 2014 - 5:54 pm
First I established step 1 in ML and the model fitted very well.
Second I established step 2 in bayes using mixture/knownclass individually for each construct. For the first construct I had a ppp value of .485 (No * in the difference output), and for second construct a ppp value of .500 (No * in difference output).
Third: When I try to bring these two constructs in the same CFA model the ppp goes to .041. So I tried introducing a difference prior for the covariance between the two constructs. Mplus output reports fatal error "set difference for only slopes, intercepts, and factor loadings."
Prof, Kindly please advice as to how I can find out where the problem is to improve PPP value before proceeding to add other constructs. My sincere gratitude in advance for your time & guidance!
posted on Saturday, January 18, 2014 - 5:56 pm
(contd to the above comment) For the CFA with both constructs too; there was no * in the difference output.
Bengt O. Muthen
posted on Monday, January 20, 2014 - 5:18 pm
First, there are no fixed rules for how to go about these types of analyses. You just have to take an approach that is sensible from a statistical point of view. We cannot teach how to do this in short posts on Mplus Discussion.
Second, if ML for both constructs fits well then Bayes should fit well also. Changing the prior for factor covariance differences is not the right approach to take.
posted on Tuesday, January 21, 2014 - 5:23 am
Thank you, Prof. Muthen. I am going back to doing this in ML as I don't know why the PPP value goes down just by bringing in two constructs, which individually fit well, into a single CFA. (And My sincere apologies for multiple posts, I realized it later. )

Dear. Mplus team
I'm trying to run a Bayesian multiple group model with approximate measurement invariance using zero-mean and small-variance priors (ex5.33 in Mplus User's Guide) across 34 groups for 11 indicators of a single factor. My indicators are categorical variables that have a different number of response categories(e.g., one indicator is binary item and another item is polytomous item).
However, not all of my response categories of indicators are measured in every group. Is it possible to do Bayesian measurement invariance with this kind of missing data? I used Automatic Recoding in my code (detail is in next post). And I want to see if my analysis code is correct. This is because the error occurs. I'd like to check both factor loading and threshold's invariance with this model.
Due to posting length issue, my full code will remain in the next post.
Thanks a lot in advance!

I'm still in that awkward post-Christmas not-yet-new-year weird void where it is even more difficult than normal to determine the date and/or time.
I shared this picture on Instagram this evening (when I truly thought it was a tiny smidgy little bit after midday). In keeping with my I-have-no-idea-what-day-it-is general mood, I also switched my home office around 180 and am facing the door instead of the window. Hello, new perspective! Who would have thought it would make such a difference. I feel all new again. And a bit like I am in a real office waiting for people to come into see me. He he he.
Annette (on Instagram) mentioned that she would like to print out the 'create' banner.
So here it is friends, a little bit of what I like to call 'desk decor' (why should our classroom get all the attention, right?!). Just download from Google Drive and print if you would like to fancy up your desk for the week too.

In July 2013 Whitecaps FC Girls Elite will travel to Gothenburg, Sweden to compete in the internationally renowned Gothia Cup presented by SKF.
Since its inception in 1975, the Gothia Cup has become the world's largest youth football tournament. Every year the competition hosts approximately 1,600 teams from 80 nations across the world. The tournament will host over 4,000 matches played on over 100 fields.
This incredible opportunity has been made possible by the late Wendy McDonald, one of the original founding owners of Whitecaps FC in 1974. In June 2012, SKF donated one 2013 Gothia Cup tournament entry for one Canadian team to Wendy in celebration of her 90th birthday. Before her passing in December 2012, Wendy generously allocated this entry to Whitecaps FC's Girls Elite team.
The arrival for all teams in Gothenburg is on Sunday, July 14. The following day over 50,000 players, coaches, and supporters will have the chance to attend a two hour grand opening ceremony at Ullevi Stadium. Following this, Kick-off for the preliminary round games begins and will run until the final matches at Gamla Ullevi between July 19 and 20.
"This is a once in a lifetime experience for our Girls Elite team," said Whitecaps FC president Bob Lenarduzzi. "This tournament provides an opportunity for the team to compete in an internationally recognized tournament, to showcase their skills in matches against other countries, and expand their knowledge of the game. We are very appreciative of the kind generosity of Wendy McDonald. This is a gift the team will never forget."

I LOVE hummus. Back when I lived in Portland, Ore., I would nosh on one Trader Joe's Mediterranean Hummus every week. I'm not playing around. When your diet is as limited as mine (and right now I'm on a vegetarian kick!), you hang on to what you love.
In Kauai, there is no such thing as Trader Joe's. Heck, I'm lucky to have an awesome health food store (Hoku Whole Foods in case you were wondering) 20 minutes from where I live. So, I've decided that this is merely an opportunity to make the foods I no longer have easy access too – all by myself.
I came up with a killer hummus recipe and had to share:
-1 can garbonzo beans
-1/4 c extra virgin olive oil
-Juice of 1 whole lemon
-4 T tahini
-2 T paprika (or other spice blend)
Put all of the ingredients above into a food processor or blender. Note: DO NOT drain the garbonzo beans. Top with additional paprika or spices and serve.
Right now I'm toasting an Ezekiel bread muffin (only $7 for a pkg. in Kauai) and topping it with my homemade hummus, sliced cherry tomatoes and avocados (from my backyard!). See picture above.
How do you like to eat your hummus?
Leave your comments here.
Happy Eating!
Heather 🙂

A coma is a state of prolonged unconsciousness that can be caused by a variety of problems — traumatic head injury, stroke, brain tumor, drug or alcohol intoxication, or even an underlying illness, such as diabetes or an infection. Maintaining alertness requires intact function of the cerebral hemispheres and preservation of arousal mechanisms in the reticular activating system (RAS—also known as the ascending arousal system)—an extensive network of nuclei and interconnecting fibers in the upper pons, midbrain, and posterior diencephalon. Therefore, the mechanism of impaired consciousness must involve both cerebral hemispheres or dysfunction of the RAS.
Disease Statistics in Sweden: 0.02% (2,499) of hospital consultant episodes were for somnolence, stupor and coma in Sweden for 2012-13.
Treatment for a coma depends on the cause.For example, if there is an infection that's affecting the brain, antibiotics may be needed. Glucose may be required in the event of a diabetic shock.
Surgery may also be necessary to relieve the pressure on the brain due to swelling or to remove a tumor. Major research on coma: coma patients in vegetative state may have damaged fiber connections in brain, making them aware but unable to respond.

Explanation: You tell the class that an idiom is a word or several words that don't mean exactly what they seem to mean, found in every language. Like having a guest to your house for dinner and saying "help yourself", which to a native English speaker means "I regard you as one of my family", and which may mean to the culturally-different speaker "He/She has no regard for me. " Here is what I use to explain the concept of idioms: I ask them "what does 'shlonek?' mean?" (pretty good transliteration) This is a word used primarily in Iraq/Syria/points north of the Gulf, but they all understand it. The students respond, invariably, "It means 'How are you'?" I say, "I'm not so sure. I think it means "What is your color?", doesn't it?"(thereby reinforcing tag questions) They think, and inevitably respond, with aha! looks on faces, yes it does. Then I say "So, if someone asks me "Shlonek?", what do I say? "Blue?" "Green?" "I feel a little bit red today"? And they get it and they laugh and we proceed with English idioms, the concept of which is now understood. It's always a happy moment! This is one of those posts offered just in case anyone might find the idea useful. Regards to all...and please give me any teaching tips you may have discovered for Arabic-speaking learners?

Despite recent voter approval of Proposition A, the parcel tax expected to bring $14 million annually to City College of San Francisco, faculty there are enduring pay cuts and layoffs, a reality that has rankled union leaders and others who have rallied to save the school.
In the face of the school's accreditation crisis, which if not addressed by March could lead to its closure, the college was a united front to keep the school open and pass Prop. A, which was approved by over 70 percent of San Francisco voters on the same night as President Obama's reelection.
But a combination of timing (the money won't roll in until later in 2013), the depth of the district's fiscal hole, and declining student enrollment have left CCSF with essentially status quo funding. District officials appear to be leaning toward using most of the surplus it does get to beef up its scant reserve funds, which was one of the things that triggered the accreditation crisis.
After the good news of Prop. A's passage, CCSF discovered it wasn't on track to meet its required enrollment numbers — and the number of students enrolled dictates state funding.
"[The administration] was focused on these accreditation reports. It's a big job. It was very disruptive to change chancellors kind of midstream," said John Rizzo, the college's board president. "We had to switch administrations, and that's been very difficult."
City College has been through three different chancellors in the past year: longtime Chancellor Don Q. Griffin left in April due to illness, Pamila Fisher was interim chancellor until October, and now Thelma Scott-Skillman is the current chancellor.
Whatever the reason, City College has 3,000 fewer students enrolled than it expected to have for the Spring, potentially putting it $6.5 million in the hole this coming year. It has until the end of summer to boost those numbers. Now, despite all the cards coming up aces for them in the polls, the college still needs to save millions of dollars somewhere else in the budget.
It has started by slashing faculty and administration wages 8.8 percent, and not renewing contracts for more than 30 part time teachers, 18 part time counselors, and 30 clerical staff. Notably, Scott-Skillman — whose office negotiated the plan, which the board discussed on Dec. 13 — will also take a paycut.
Alisa Messer, president of the faculty union at City College, thinks cutting teachers, and therefore classes, flies in the face of what the voters bargained for with Prop. A. "There's no discussion here about accountability to San Francisco voters," Messer told us. And with the loss of competitive wages, the faculty has already started to come apart at the seams.
"We have unfortunately heard from quite a few faculty that they will be looking for jobs out of state," Messer said. "Many said they'll have to change their living situation or move out of San Francisco."
She said that would hurt CCSF: "These things have to do with the long term viability of the college."
Steve Ngo, a trustee on the college's board, thinks that the Prop. A money should be used to shore up the school's reserve fund, as dictated by the accreditation team that threatens the school with closure. Unfortunately, this means losing teachers now rather than later.
"If you want to frame it in terms of labor, there's nothing worse to do than spending money now [to retain teachers] and laying off teachers in the future," Ngo said. "Those are younger teachers. The people there now will be retired."
Due to increased focus on diversity in hiring, CCSF's more diverse and younger teachers tend to be the newer ones, and part time faculty, Ngo said. Those are the teachers most at risk — and the ones that students will end up losing.
Amidst the arguments about proper use of funding, teachers at the school are seeing their wages cut. Some, like Danny Halford, are losing their jobs.
Halford taught English as a Second Language at City College for seven years. A friendly and outgoing middle-aged guy, Halford is a veritable man about town, and can be seen at City College fundraisers, and was among the college's most ardent Prop. A supporters, waving picket signs and attending rallies.
He was also one of the part time faculty members to lose his job in the Spring.
"Greg Keech, our super-wonderful ESL Dept. chair, wrote me a very nice letter to inform me that due to budget cuts there will be no job for me next semester," Halford said. He had also recently lost his job as an organist at the College Avenue Presbyterian Church, which he'd had for 10 years, when a new pastor had "a new music concept that I don't fit," he said.
One of his favorite memories from City College was of a student named Elmer, from Guatemala. "He came into my Literacy class in May 2006, near the end of my first semester, with almost no English. He made progress quickly."
"When he got his G.E.D. diploma, I was so proud of him, I could have bust," Halford said. "I've watched him grow, off and on, for six years now. He has no family here, and I think of him as my nephew."
He may even be re-hired next fall, but until then he waits in limbo. He'll try to substitute teach at the college for now, he said, but ruled out looking at other schools for work. As he said, "There are no jobs at other colleges because all colleges are in the same boat."
Ngo said that the choice is basically between drastic change, or the closure of the school.
"It's mathematically impossible to keep that payrate now," Ngo said. "My hope is to provide the best wages and benefits in the long run, but we can't offer it if it's a facade. We can't maintain payrates as they are now because we have too many faculty…There's no agreement if there's no college."
City College's faculty's union, American Federation of Teachers 2121, filed an unfair labor practice charge Dec. 21 with the Public Employee Relations Board, a state entity that has the power to enforce labor law in California. The charge alleges that the college's paycuts are unlawful.
A recent email to their union members outlines the AFT 2121's grievances with the college: "At Monday's bargaining session, the District finally outlined its claim that it will cut wages to recover last year's ongoing state cuts of $13 million—even though the parties bargained in good faith, reaching agreement on June 20, 2012 to address these losses, including the 2.85% wage reduction this year and millions of dollars in savings through attrition and program cuts. The District is essentially overriding the previous agreement by now moving to cut wages to recover $13 million on top of the already agreed to concessions."
College spokesperson Larry Kamer said he hadn't seen the charges yet, as the college is on vacation, but that "we respectfully disagree with AFT 2121's characterization of the situation."
"City College is facing an immediate budget shortfall due to a second straight year of missed enrollment targets," he said. "In the past, City College might have papered over such a budget gap with money it didn't have, but those days are over. The college remains in a perilous situation with regard to accreditation and has no choice but to respond to the crisis with swift action and a request for shared sacrifice."
And there's the rub. In the midst of reforming the school to meet the requirements of the accreditation team by March or face closure, the college failed to keep its eye on their enrollment.
"The unions were trying to help, calling prospective students and trying a pitch," Rizzo said. "'Hey enroll!' That kind of thing. They're helping. A lot of people are trying to chip in to help this."
"Ultimately it's the people in the administration who are responsible for the enrollment," he said.
With City College's newest Chancellor Scott-Skillman on track to stay for at least a year, some stability may return to college's administration. But City College's dilemma, to potentially strain its budget to the breaking point or to lose valued and experienced teachers, has no easy answers — and either way the losers may end up being the students.
To register for classes at City College, visit ccsf.edu. Enrollment for Spring is open.

Prop A - $14 million a year for 8 years starting in 2013
3,000 - the number of students city college needs to enroll in order to meet its budget expectations, or lose money
$6.5 million - the amount CCSF loses if it doesn't enroll 3,000 students
8.8 percent, the amount faculty wages are being cut
160 - faculty lost in the past year due to attrition - retirement, quitting
30 - part time faculty not rehired next semester, including ESL teacher Danny Halford
30 - clerical staff not rehired for next semester
18 - part time counselors not rehired next semester
3 - number of chancellors running City College over the past year

DRHOOK- For lovers? Amendment 1 drives doctors away
"Virginia is for Lovers"? Can I sue the Commonwealth of Virginia for false advertising? (BTW, does anyone know the difference between a State and a Commonwealth?)
Virginia needs to change the state motto to "Virginia is for legally married couples. Forget being in a long-term relationship that's not one of those: you can't make a legally binding contract (like a last will, a durable power of attorney, a medical decision form, or adopt a child with your significant other)." Hmm, that would be a long bumper sticker.
That is why my partner of 17 years and I are closing up our medical practice. We are moving to Cape May, NJ where civil union exists. It has been a painful, ulcer-producing decision to make because we love our patients and staff. We have put a lot of money, time, and heart (free of cholesterol plaques) into our practice.
What surprises me is how many people don't know what Amendment 1 actually says. I can see it in their eyes when they respond, "So, you're leaving because Amendment 1– which we voted into the Virginia Constitution in 2006– doesn't allow you to make any legal contracts to protect each other's assets or health?" [Insert glossy-eyed look and deep furrowed brows.] "I thought the Amendment was just to define marriage as a union between a man and a woman. Why should there be a constitutional law to dictate how you live your life?"
Amendment 1 states, "A civil union, partnership contract, or other arrangement between persons of the same sex purporting to bestow the privileges or obligations of marriage is prohibited. Any such civil union, partnership contract, or other arrangement entered into by persons of the same sex in another state or jurisdiction shall be void in all respects in Virginia, and any contractual rights created thereby shall be void and unenforceable."
So as a doctor, I find it ironic that I stand up for patients' rights, but I can't allow my own partner, who is also a doctor, to guide my medical care if I am in very ill. He can't legally manage my finances if I'm in a coma. (Hey, I'm not being drama queen here. Things happen, and I see it often enough in my practice.) Technically, in this Commonwealth, my brother has to make decisions for me. Why should my brother have to suffer with this? (He had to suffer enough growing up with me.)
I have known dozens of same-sex couples who have moved out of Virginia in the past few years, including doctors, professors, lawyers, carpenters, teachers, and researchers. It might not matter to you, but it probably matters to your friends or relatives.
I actually hate controversy, but enough people have pushed me to explain why we are leaving Virginia, and it isn't because of the ham. I hope our move opens some eyes and that maybe one day Virginians will nullify that constitutional amendment because doing so would be the humane, civil, decent thing to do.
I never expected to become a local celebrity. NBC29 allowed me to flash my pearly whites a couple of times a week for eight years, even when I wore braces. The Hook allowed me to get carpal tunnel syndrome from typing my humorous but informative medical articles. The Charlottesville/Albemarle community gave me chances to raise awareness and money for good causes. My patients and staff are the best people in the world. I will always be thankful for these things.
I hope the community continues to support my articles as I write from the sandy beaches of Cape May. Maybe my dream of dying on the beach like Barbara Hershey in Beaches will come true after all– but in 35 years or so. And when I do, my partner will be able to make decisions about my final days, and then inherit all my worldly goods.
New Jersey, here we come!
Dr. Hook cracks a joke or two, but he's a renowned physician with a local practice and an interesting website, drjohnhong.com. Email him with your questions.

I do not see where the law prohibits you from giving medical power of attorney to your patner or combining your finances.
Sears and Roebuck were not married.
It may take a little creativeness to make your situation function but it can be done.
I am not against gay mariage, I just do not want it to be enacted until the logistical problems are solved. For instance, if you can marry your partner and get family health insurance why can't I marry my mother for the inheritance of spouse benifit? I am sterile, so a child is not part of the equation and incest is as much a right as homsexuality in the "I was born this way why should society tell who I can and can't love?
I am sorry you fell a need to move over this, but I hope that when you see homoesexuals acting like rockettes demanding rights you point out to them that their behvior is as much to blame for the laws as the closed minded bigots.
All Virginians should be alarmed to know that highly-contributing residents are leaving our communities because of prevalent anti-gay bigotry and social-structural violence against sexual and gender minorities, manifest in such forms as a purposefully homophobic Virginia constitutional amendment, lack of protection from workplace discrimination, lack of access to benefits routinely granted heterosexually married people, etc.
Virginia's increasingly bad reputation as a state with severe bigotry will impact aspects of economic recovery, in short and long terms. If there is a choice between Virginia and another state that does not have enforced bigotry, some corporations will select the other site(s) because of this offense to their employees and executives. Bigotry has an economic cost.
Additionally, bigotry costs in other ways. Recent research establishes that states with anti-gay constitutional amendments - such as Virginia - likely add 3-5 cases of HIV infection per 100,000 population (in Virginia this might be 210-350 cases)which are very costly to these individuals, their families, their workplaces, and to taxpayers in the Commonwealth. Other research shows that states - such as Virginia - that have no hate crimes protections, and no workplace protections, for sexual and gender minorities, create a burden of psychiatric illness (depression, anxiety disorders, post-traumatic stress disorders, and substance abuse disorders) that would not likely otherwise occur, again adding significant costs to these individuals, their families, their workplaces and the taxpayers of the Commonwealth of Virginia.
Of course, many sexual and gender minority Virginians remain in Virginia - because of work, children in school, caring for elderly parents, a love of the land and history, etc ... all the same reasons that heterosexual persons and families live here. Yet because of bigotry, their contributions as doctors, police officers, teachers, carpenters, mechanics, lawyers, chefs, parents, grandparents, caregivers, etc ... are not shown the same respect as is shown to heterosexuals: They are not protected in the workplace, they do not receive comparable benefits from state agencies, they do not receive similar tax deductions, and data show that they are not paid the same as heterosexuals. Recent data ( a 2009 demographic study ) find that there are likely more than 150,000 gay and bisexual men in Virginia, and studies using the 2000 US Census data suggest that there are likely over one-quarter million gay men, lesbians, and bisexual men and women in Virginia, and somewhere between 15,000 and 25,000 gay and lesbian couples ( identifying from every city and county in Virginia - EVERY county, from the most populous to the most remote ).
Data are not the end-all or be-all, but ought to be the basis for arguments about social policies: what do reliable data show about the pros and cons, the benefits and the impacts, of a social policy. Truths established by reliable data ought to be the basis for arguments about gay and lesbian Virginians, and their rights, not ridiculous analogies to retail magnates, incest, sterility, and groups of dancing women.
I main reason I voted against this amendment was that there was no problem before. It was a stupid solution looking for a problem that didn't exist.
"you attcked me so I will attack you."
was that in a comment that got deleted? I've read everything on this page twice and cant find it.
From "a god fearing Virgianans" last paragraph"
Truths established by reliable data ought to be the basis for arguments about gay and lesbian Virginians, and their rights, not ridiculous analogies to retail magnates, incest, sterility, and groups of dancing women.
Thank you, Dr. Hong and Dr. Zitney for your compassioned work and drive to heal. May the hate and fear filled words spoken and written fall deep into a black whole – Void of Presence. Powerless. Compacted. Decimated.
As one of Dr. Hong's patients, and as a friend, I have to say that I totally agree with his logic. It IS true that other family members, if they want to, can contest any will, living will, partnership agreement, etc. between two members of the same sex simply because of this dreaded amendment. They do have the ability to challenge such an arrangement in court, and we all know how "forward thinking" every judge in Virginia seems to be(see the Sharon Bottoms case if you want proof).
We, as a same sex couple, lived in Virginia for nearly 14 years. We were active in our local church, one of us served as president of our children's PTO several times, we volunteered untold hours and many, many dollars toward social equity and what we found in return was a law purposely written to exclude us from the simplest of legal assurances. We stayed just long enough to see both our children graduate high school and enter college on their own.
We have now relocated to state where an anti-gay marriage amendment was defeated by the populace. Several of our best friends have done the same thing. We now are working toward social equity in our new state and the outlook is very good. Too bad, Virginia, you have lost and excellent professor, and if I say so myself, a darn good carpenter.
As a patient of Dr. Hong, I am sad to see a caring, brilliant physician leave. As a Virginian, I am sad to see caring, productive fellow citizens that have contributed so much to their community leave. Someone much wiser than I once said "In the war for individual rights, common sense becomes the first and major casualty."
I am sad to see these fine gentlemen leave our town and our loss is certainly Cape May's gain. I am sad that I might never find a doctor whose abilities I have so much confidence in. I think that it is ironic that here in the home of Thomas Jefferson, two contributing members of our community feel that they have to leave. It was Jefferson that wrote those amazing words of:
"We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable rights, that among these are life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness."
And to all of those folks out there that condemn or look down on people for being individuals, Wendell Wilkie said it best:
"No man has a right in America to treat any other man "tolerantly" for tolerance is the assumption of superiority. Our liberties are equal rights of every citizen."
Good luck and good living to Dr. Hong & Dr. Zitney

Uh, NOTHING ,so if she can't deal- see ya! Gold diggers, lol, I'm surprised you don't have more of those at your door-considering the view & what that door's attached to! Yea things are good for me, no whining these days Nickelback is coming to NC in April, so not that far. I CAN'T wait since Breaking Benjamin is my fav band of all time! I was hoping Shinedown would be with 'em but the Sick Puppies are instead. They're ok. Out west got Rev Theory, , another fav, but can't have it all. I bet you're missing that boat until spring but hope all else is well.
Hey, haven't seen you around much. I asked Anty & she you were busy these days w/ someone special now. I guess that's her ^ there? Glad you finally found someone & you're doing great! I'm sure it had to have taken so long due to pickiness on your part

Yours is classic. ;p
I'm still laughing Jeff.
Love your avatar!How's life there?I'm changing to hermit mode-too cold for me
He probably won't. It's not that. It's just that you have such a good time no matter what you do. The pic is funny 'cause look you like you're oh, so serious and I know you're sooooo not.
I loved the pics from your reunion. It looked like you were right at home in the midst of all the women. It seemed there were lots of blondes. I think that's your preferred flavor.
I expect your Hawiian shirt looking all tan with the blonde streaks pics and THEN ... there's this PIC of you all cheesey bikered up.
Jeff. Your avatar is totally cracking me up more and more. The more I look the more I laugh.
You really do look like Adi in your avatar! That was the first person I thought of, no joke.
Of COURSE! D'oh! Although I'm trying to go for a kinder, gentler me. I really am.
Jeff! I really thought you'd gone all Halloween biker on us a week early.
I like the S.W.A.G acronym
OMG! Are you trying to look like the person you look like in your avatar? If so, you nailed it. LMFAO!
Is your new avatar what you're doing for Halloween? You can soooooo go biker.

FDOT says Mathews Bridge to reopen Tuesday night
JACKSONVILLE, Fla. – The Florida Department of Transportation announced Friday that the Mathews Bridge will reopen Tuesday evening -- meeting the goal of reopening the span before Florida-Georgia weekend.
The span has been closed since a Navy cargo ship under tow struck the bridge on Sept. 26, shearing several bolts and dislodging a support beam.
FDOT had asked its staff and contractors to work and plan aggressively to open the bridge ahead of schedule.The contract specified a 40-day deadline, but provided a $50,000-a-day incentive for opening the bridge early.
"I appreciate the hard work of our FDOT personnel and contractors in working around the clock to return the bridge back to normal," FDOT Secretary Ananth Prasad said in a statement. "I understand the economic impact experienced by Jacksonville commuters and local businesses when the Mathews Bridge is closed. I also know the Florida/Georgia game is one of Jacksonville's largest yearly attractions injecting millions of dollars into the local economy."

DOCUMENT: Florida-Georgia traffic tips
At a news conference Friday morning, the Jacksonville Sheriff's Office, along with the city of Jacksonville addressed traffic patterns, saying they were planning for the bridge to be open, but they had a backup plan in place for game day.
Dozens of RVs are already lined up ready for game week. JSO said it's ready, too.
"We initiate our planning in June for this game," Assistant Chief Leonard Propper said.
JSO said it was meeting with FDOT every day, but had not been told Friday morning that the bridge would reopen in time.
JSO will place signs downtown indicating what routes to take. But whether the bridge is open or not, JSO suggests getting to the stadium five hours early to be on time for kick off.
"Most people have to cross the street to get into the stadium, so we allow the pedestrians to have the priority at 1:30 (p.m.)," Propper said.
Police say the best bet is to take the bus, Skyway or water taxi to get to the stadium on time.

Last weekend, the U-18 and U-16 teams opened the Spring portion of the U.S. Soccer Development Academy (USSDA) season on the road with two game each in Virginia against D.C. United and Richmond United. D.C. United U-18 (2) vs. New York Red Bulls U-18 (0) Leesburg, Va. (March 5, 2016) – The New York Red Bulls U-18 fell to D.C. United, 2-0, on Saturday afternoon in the USSDA Spring season opener. The game took a number of different turns after 30 minutes when D.C. were reduced to ten players for straight red card. After the sending off, the Red Bulls controlled possession and created a number of openings. All three forward players; Brian Saramago, Omir Fernandez and Samad Bounthong, went close to opening the scoring in the first half, only to be denied by a number of good saves from the United goalkeeper. New York dominated possession again in the second half, albeit without troubling the home keeper in the early stages. It was United that opened the scoring against the run of play after some good individual play from a throw in – beating two Red Bulls defenders before crossing the ball in for D.C. to break the deadlock. The complexion of the match turned again in the 78th minute, when Kyle Perno was shown his second yellow card and the Red Bulls were reduced to 10-players. D.C. scored from the resulting free kick to double their lead, 2-0. Both teams had chances as the game opened up, but the Red Bulls could not find the back of the net and dropped the Spring opener. The Red Bulls had a quick turnaround as they headed south to play the next day at Richmond United in the opening weekend USSDA double-header. Scoring Summary: D.C. United 68' D.C. United 79' Vadym Sanzharevskyi, Noah Powder, Mason Deeds, Kyle Perno, Kevin O'Toole, Ryan Mingachos, Jared Gilbey, Jeanpaul Marin (Matt Thorshiem, 61'), Samad Bounthong, Brian Saramago, Omir Fernandez (Zach Ryan, 68') Subs not used: Sam Ilin, Jonah Conway, Cristian Martinez Man of the Match: Jared Gilbey Richmond United U-18 (1) vs. New York Red Bulls U-18 (1) Glen Allen, Va. (March 6, 2016) – The New York Red Bulls U-18 tied Richmond United in their second game of the weekend, 1-1. The Red Bulls took the lead two minutes after halftime when a clever through ball from Matt Thorshiem put Zach Ryan through on goal to score. Ryan, who was playing up with the U18s, showed composure in his finish to give New York the advantage. The Red Bulls created a number of chances and were punished for not finding a second goal. In stoppage time, Richmond grabbed a dramatic last minute equalizer on the final play of the game. The Red Bulls U-18 look to bounce back and take all three points in their next match at home on Saturday, March 12, against Bethesda-Olney. Scoring Summary (Assist in parenthesis): NY: Zach Ryan (Matt Thorshiem) 47' Richmond United 90 4' Vadym Sanzharevskyi, Jonah Conway (Jared Juleau, 89'), Noah Powder, Cristian Martinez, Kevin O'Toole, Ryan Mingachos, Jared Gilbey, Matt Thorshiem (Jeanpaul Marin, 62'), Samad Bouthong, Zach Ryan (Omir Fernandez), Brian Saramago Subs not used: Sam Ilin Man of the Match: Noah Powder D.C. United U-16 (1) vs. New York Red Bulls U-16 (4) Leesburg, Va. (March 5, 2016) – The New York Red Bulls U-16 traveled south for the start of the USSDA Spring season. The Red Bulls faced their MLS rival, D.C. United, on Saturday and came away with a convincing win, 4-1. With forwards Zach Ryan and Omir Fernandez moved up to the U-18 team for the weekend, Ben Mines was moved up to forward from his central midfield position. Mines responded to the move with three goals and one assist as he tormented the D.C. defenders throughout the match. After a scoreless first half that saw the Red Bulls miss some scoring opportunities, Mines broke through the D.C. defense and gave the Red Bulls a 1-0 lead. Mines added two more goals before United pulled one back to make it 3-1, but Mines would seal it with another run behind the defense. His cross found Aziel Jackson, who controlled the pass off his chest and volleyed it home for the goal. Jackson's goal came in his first game playing up from the Red Bulls U-14s. Scoring Summary: NY: Ben Mines 45' NY: Ben Mines 52' NY: Ben Mines 64' D.C. United 68' NY: Aziel Jackson 77' Richmond United U-16 (0) vs. New York Red Bulls U-16 (4) Glen Allen, Va. (March 6, 2016) – The New York Red Bulls U-16 followed the opening victory with a trip down to Richmond on Sunday. New York dominated the game from the opening whistle, and created many scoring chances in the first half. Bratislav Petkovik put the Red Bulls on the scoreboard off a corner kick from Ben Mines, 1-0. Then Chris Bermudez scored unassisted in the 25th minute as New York doubled their lead heading into halftime. Petkovik tallied his second goal of the match off a feed from Jack Valderabanno in the 55th minute and Vince Borden capped off the scoring via a feed from Mines. The Red Bulls U-16s are back in action on Saturday, March 12, at home against Bethesda-Olney. Scoring Summary: NY: Bratislav Petkovik 17' NY: Chris Bermudez 25' NY: Bratislav Petkovik 55' NY: Vince Borden 68' Back to news

Re: WHO poll
Finally looks like Gold is safe.
What a relief
Why on earth did he choose 86%?
Did he know 85% were against him?

Re: WHO poll
Major AG at the WHO poll, is it locked on exactly 86% or still open?

Sorry Dicksie son, I would have helped out with CAMP ESSEX and the BREKSHIRE HUNTS but I've been away on holiday. I'm in Tanzania.

Re: WHO poll
My basis for moving is that we will be SOLD... And we will be sold when the deal with the government about getting x-amount expires - or when GOLD0 dies. Which could be soon at his age. And he won't be missed at all.
Is this too hard to understand?

"Blaming concrete and plastic for the club's failure is just as fucking brain-dead as the above."
I do love the fact that you spent 5 years doing exactly that, and claiming that the concrete and plastic (and breeze blocks and cable ties) would improve our results, but seem to have forgotten that this was your entire basis for moving now that its gone to shit. Quite brilliant.

Re: WHO poll
Ps- no one is saying we were not shit at the BG, just like no one is solely blaming the stadium.
The irony of calling someone retarded and braindead is completely lost on some people I swear

Re: WHO poll
Everyone is entitled to an opinion. If that opinion though is that the stadium is fine then i am so glad i dont stand with these types of fans. These are the types you see as the small % on polls where you think "who the fuck voted for moyes in?". The type of fans who tweet the owners kids begging for a refund. The type of fans who swallowed all the lies and bullshit, after months of giving it the large in here, then dissappeared when it transpired they'd been completely mugged off and the DRUIDS were correct all along.

Re: WHO poll
I do love the buck-toothed, cross-eyed, red-necked, inbred COUNTRY BUMPKIN retards on here though.
Walking around with their pitchforks looking to have a go at anyone but themselves for their failures and why they're so fucking mentally-challenged... Even wild foxes... Stab them all to death! Your dad shouldn't have married his cousin. That's the truth of the matter.
Blaming concrete and plastic for the club's failure is just as fucking brain-dead as the above. And then they claim that we never failed at the Boleyn Ground!...
4 relegations in 28 years and no trophy in 36 years at FORTRESS UPTON PARK says otherwise!
All our problems are down to a fucking terrible, terrible board who are incredibly tight and fucking stupid. We're fucked until they go. I've accepted that because, believe me, they won't be here forever. The fans - proper fans - are the only constant.

You also forget the shit view and the great big fucking hole right along the length of one side of it. Apart from that.....

Re: WHO poll
The problem ain't the stadium, the problem is the shit you have to go through to get in, the lack of the smell of shitty burger stands, the stewarding, and basically a lot of other things that could easily be put right if the will was there.
We were sold a lie about the stadium being used to push on and invest, that's the problem right there. With every transfer window that goes by, and with appointments like Moyes, that lie gets shown up for what it is.

Unfortunately in this case we pay for a large athletics bowl that is unsuitable for football and that's what we get.

Re: WHO poll
I think that it's fine. Am I not entitled to that opinion?
Maybe if you purchased a Band One season-ticket in the lower-tier in line with the centre circle then your opinion would change.
Fortunately, I'm surrounded by knowledgeable proper West Ham United fans too.
You get what you pay for.
