Skip to comments.The Image of Our Lady of Guadalupe
Posted on 12/10/2007 4:33:54 PM PST by Salvation
The only true picture of the Mother of God To the Aztecs a message To the Spaniards a picture color, lines, stars, designs, rays, moon. all have meaning
Flowers and Songs
Mary appeared on Tepeyac, the hill was covered with flowers, surrounded by songs of the most beautiful birds
meaning: flowers and songs mean the full truth
Size of the image: 6 1/2' X 3 1/2' Mary adolescent, around 15, oval face, Mexican clear dark face, a little mother
as a caryatid, wings half open, sustain Our Lady red, white, blue in color the angel is holding both: the pink dress represents earth; the blue mantle represents heaven meaning: Heaven and earth are witnesses to the truth of the apparition message
Brightest gold - finest - royalty: as if woven, as if they would fall at touch 48 stars, 8 points; 22 on right, 26 on left show constellations that were in the sky at the time of the apparition 10:30 am December 12, 1531
pattern: The stars on one side represent the northern constellations, the others represent the southern constellations. Can see Venus the morning star, Virgo would fall on the hands, Leo on the womb, crown of stars on the head.
in Nahuatl the designs of gold thread as embroidered flowers of 8 petals represent mountains; the only 4-petal flower on womb just below sash in the center means life and movement
tied around the waist; symbol of pregnancy Central part of dress bulging - means She is with child
End of dress rolled back over the sleeves white fur means nobility - dressed in Jewish nobility - nothing Indian about it
joined in prayer of supplication, therefore not a goddess; there is someone greater than Her
stands on moon, horns up - Rev. 12:1 moon pagan god of night, providence, youth, war She is greater than the moon
mighty god; Our Lady blocks the sun behind Her She is brighter than the sun god
rays bright near body, fade out away from body 129 rays - 62 on right, 67 on left equidistant alternating forms: 1) straight like swords 2) undulating flames
Red Border
because of rising sun - new life
surrounding the entire image
1. The image to this date, cannot be explained by science.
2. The image shows no sign of deterioration after 450 years! The tilma or cloak of Juan Diego on which the image of Our Lady has been imprinted, is a coarse fabric made from the threads of the maguey cactus. This fiber disintegrates within 20-60 years!
3. There is no under-sketch, no sizing and no protective over-varnish on the image.
4. Microscopic examination revealed that there were no brush strokes.
5. The image seems to increase in size and change colors due to an unknown property of the surface and substance of which it is made.
6. According to Kodak of Mexico, the image is smooth and feels like a modern-day photograph. (It was produced 300 years before the invention of photography.)
7. The image has consistently defied exact reproduction, whether by brush or camera.
8. Several images can be seen reflected in the eyes of the Virgin. It is believed to be the images of Juan Diego, Bishop Juan de Zummaraga, Juan Gonzales, the interpreter and others.
9. The distortion and place of the images are identical to what is produced in the normal eye which is impossible to obtain on a flat surface.
10. The stars on Our Lady's Mantle coincide with the constellation in the sky on December 12, 1531. All who have scientifically examined the image of Our Lady over the centuries confess that its properties are absolutely unique and so inexplicable in human terms that the image can only be supernatural!
My wife and I attribute the adoption of our oldest son to Our Lady of Guadalupe.
After years of not being able to have children, my wife and I started looking into adoption. We started attending seminars on adoption. But with all the emphasis on open adoption and all the fear mongering in the drive-by-media, we weren't sure if that was what we should do.
One day, my wife was looking for something to read, and she came across a book on Our Lady of Guadalupe. She'd forgotten the story, so she decided to read it, and was just blown away by the words of Our Lady:
Listen and let it penetrate into your heart. . . . Do not be troubled or weighed down with grief. Do not fear any illness or vexation, anxiety or pain. Am I not here who am your Mother? Are you not under my shadow and protection? Am I not your fountain of life? Are you not in the folds of my mantle? In the crossing of my arms? Is there anything else that you need?
She decided to pray for the intercession of Our Lady of Guadalupe. What should we do? Should we try to adopt? Or are we just not meant to have kids?
Less than two hours later, my wife received a phone call from a friend of her from high school. (We hadn't told anyone we were thinking of adopting.) Her friend said, "I have an unusual question for you. Have you and Dan ever thought about adopting? The only reason why I ask is because my parents were just in Rome, and they had lunch with an American adoption attorney who's representing a birth mother that's looking for a very specific type of adoptive parents. And the parents she described sounded just like you two."
Well anyway, my wife and I both took that as a sign. We contacted the attorney, met the birth mother, and got along great.
Three days after he was born, the birth mother handed our son Kevin to us, completely at peace with her decision. We all agree that this is precisely what God wanted.
Since then, we've adopted two more children (Vivian and Sean). Kevin is now seven years old. We tell him that it was Our Lady of Guadalupe that gave him to us.
Thank you for that message. It is one I will save in a folder I have.
That is one of the main tenants of their new "revelation"
Roman Catholics always just seem to put Mormons in with those "other Protestants". Might want to do a bit of research. They are NOT orthodox Christians.
Thank you Salvation,here's a bump.
Supernatural doesn't sit well with the atheists. Maybe that's why God throws mankind a loop every once in a while (smile).
The scientific facts about the image of our Lady of Guadalupe on St. Juan Diego's tilma cause many to claim that Glaudalupe is the greatest miracle of modern times.
There is also lots of information in the links above.
Thanks, A.A. for your input. The scientific viewpoint here is ssooooooooo powerful here.
**Do not fear any illness or vexation, anxiety or pain. Am I not here who am your Mother?**
Your story definitely indicates that your wife's prayers were answered...........and within 24 hours. Wow!
Aware of that. Now if we can just educate the rest of the world without sounding anti-anything.
Happy Feast Day!

30 Minutes With Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull
Ian Anderson of Jethro Tull is quite animated when discussing the current and future state of recorded music. Back in the early months of 2000, Anderson and I sat down in a hotel restaurant in New York City to discuss similar topics. It's interesting to see how things have progressed since then - or not...
So: Surround sound or stereo? Two channels seems to be just right. We've got two eyes, two ears, two nostrils - we're binary creatures by nature, so stereo sound works for me.
You were among the pioneers of recording in quadraphonic sound. That's right. By 1975, I was recording in dedicated four-track - two front and two rear channels - but I came very rapidly to the conclusion that the only way to do that correctly was to use the rear channels for live-performance ambience. That meant carrying only 60% of the room sound in the back speakers in order to give the idea of music being performed in an acoustic space. But that's kind of underutilizing the rear channels, isn't it, if that's all they do?
What do you think about recording in surround sound now? Well, you don't want me sitting on your shoulder breathing on the back of your ear. That's not going to make the music sound any better. It's going to be disconcerting. What works best is when you very gently suggest being in an environment with the artist, but he's still a performer and stays on his side of the footlights. This may be an old-fashioned point of view, but I think it's important not to cross that strange borderline between the performer and the listener. That would be like going to the art gallery and stepping through the frame and being a part of a Turner painting.
I think there are some fundamental truths in terms of presenting entertainment and art. If it's sheer entertainment, by all means, have multichannel sound and be surrounded by the Arnold Schwarzenegger experience: total absorption, total immersion. But if I want to listen to Beethoven's Ninth Symphony or a great piece of pop or rock music, I'd rather sit on this side of the footlights and have it presented to me so I feel I'm in a natural acoustic space with only some of the information coming from around me. Frankly, you don't need multichannel discrete audio to do that.
Analog or digital? I hate - hate - analog! And I hate vinyl! If I have to choose, I'll go for the CD every time. Most irritating to me is the turntable rumble, the scratches, the general noise. There is no such thing as a great-sounding vinyl record. It's impossible. You try scratching a wiggly groove in a piece of lacquer with a sharp needle and tell me that's art - forget it. That's just making the best of the available technology. It's a helluva compromise. And besides, now comes the next 15 years worth of hi-fi quality: SACD, DVD-Audio, and beyond.
But we're not allowed to switch to it just yet - not until the Pioneers and the Sonys and everybody else have emptied their warehouses of all the VCRs, CD players, and cassette players. The technology exists, but we consumers cannot take advantage of it because the political and economic realities dictate that things have to take their time getting through the system until we're allowed to have the new toys.

Leavenworth topples Topeka 51-22 as Nathan Butler stays undefeated
The tension had been building all night.
Leavenworth wrestling was putting the final touches on a 51-22 dual win over Topeka, but what everyone was eagerly waiting for the final match of the evening.
The last bout of the night pitted undefeated Pioneer star Nathan Butler versus undefeated Trojan star Will Geary, who hadn't loss since his sophomore year.
"It was the most exciting match I might have ever seen," Pioneers coach Jay Johnston said. "Two state champs, two nationally ranked wrestlers, two big-time college bound wrestlers going head-to-head was one of the coolest things I've ever watched."
The 295-pound heavyweights saved the best for last and didn't disappoint. In front of a roaring crowd, Butler trailed Geary 3-2 with just 30 seconds left in the third period.
With his undefeated season on the line, the Pioneer attacked his opponent with such savagery that it planted Geary on his back. From there, Butler rode out the final seconds to secure a 6-3 win.
"To witness something like that was truly special and I told our entire team that," Johnston said. "Those were two of the best wrestlers to ever represent their high schools and it was a treat to watch."
The win was the cherry on top of a decisive Leavenworth victory that saw several underclassmen step up. The Pioneer coach highlighted Nick Brown (106), Bennett Weyhrauch (120) and Jake Harrington (138) for their pin wins, as well as Isaiah Myers, who lost a close match at 126.
Kenneth Sculley at 195 won by pin also, as did Josh Ammel, who's victory brought a smile to his coach's face.
"Josh Ammel has been hurt since last year and this was his first match back," Johnston said. "For the amount of hard work he put in, I'm so proud of his perseverance."
Leavenworth will compete in the Newton Tournament beginning at 3 p.m. Friday.

So it's BT now - not IT is it ?
In the UK BT has long stood for shocking service, over-charging & obstruction of business & technology.
HP this week put an end to information technology. You're now meant to slot all things IT under the Business Technology (BT) umbrella. HP's declaration does little for The Register's slogan. Thanks a lot. So what's all this BT fuss about? Well, you wouldn't really know from the products HP released to back up the marketing. …
This is the same type of model that Teradata used to grab sales in the DW marketplace. More specifically, TDAT consultants would perform assessments of a customer's warehouse and model strategy against a "standard" industry model, point out where it could be improved, and back the whole thing up with a session in the demo room (the Benchmark Lab) where they could bring a couple of terabytes of real data and see it dance in an environment that mirrored what they could purchase.
The strategy worked well: if a customer made it to Benchmark, there was about a 90%+ chance of a sale closing.
The truth of the whole "BT" thing is that an integrated methodology for creating an information infrastructure - be it a data warehouse or a complete IT/BT department - is not just a key to success, but is almost a slam-dunk to accomplishing it. Using a set of standard "templates" for operational areas, field-developed strategy and techniques for actual implementation, and integrated services for deployment and training provides an almost unbeatable machine for delivering success to customers.
HP's concentration on several well-established IT hot-spots - Exchange, SAP and Oracle - gives it all the pieces to build a successful offering in these areas. These are, of course, the "low-hanging fruit": most potential clients have "painted themselves into a corner" in higgeldy-piggeldy deployment of these technologies over time, and, with much of their business hinging on getting data out of these tools, are ripe for having someone provide a clean roadmap - and do the dirty work - of cleaning out the rubbish and getting a "new" implementation up and running.
The only problem is being able to say "NO!" when you have a customer that doesn't fit or want to take advantage of this assembly-line implementation. Too often sales will out-sell the capabilities of a carefully crafted solution with the promise of even greater margins. Once the first successes are past, it becomes much more difficult to deliver a one-off that is not-quite a match for the service offering. We shall see if HP succumbs to this revenue-stuffing temptation.
Please don't get me wrong on this: what HP is offering, while it seems "fluffy" actually DOES work - if done properly. I've been part of developing, delivering and tuning these types of methodologies over the past 10 years, and have had a higher percentage of successes when using a detailed, pre-designed tactical plan than "winging" it to what a customer tells you they need. HP has the resources and the business drive - especially from their senior leadership - to put this together and deploy it.
If you fit into the parameters HP is defining for this type of deployment, certainly go see them and get a good assessment of your needs. However, if you don't fit the model 90%, do yourself a favor and don't take ANY vendor's word that "it's OK, we'll make it work". Use the information HP or IBM or Teradata gives you as your starting point, and finish the job for yourself, using their templates but reworking it with your architects and management.
My nickel's worth. I hope this helps.
""We are saying that business technology is an evolution from the Adaptive Enterprise, which was all about synchronizing business and IT," Nelson said. "We are beyond that. We are to a point where technology is powering business and where we need to be held accountable at the same level as other parts of the business.""
How you can be "beyond" synchronising business and IT is ... beyond me :-)
Is it about anticipating business ? Please Admiral Nelson, explain how you require budget for that, and more than that, obtain it ? And not be fired for unacceptable levels of bollocks ?
Next HP marketing campaign will surely be full of terms like "prescience", "spice", "fremens" and other Franck Herbert stuff.

Alliums give me so much pleasure. I have so many fond memories of spontaneous encounters with them.
Outside the giant glasshouse at Wisley, the Royal Horticultural Society's flagship garden, where hundreds of Allium hollandicum 'Purple Sensation' had been planted en masse.
On the terrace at Haddon Hall in Derbyshire, a spectacular row of Purple Sensation were lavishly planted in a lavender border against a stone balustrade.
In the kitchen garden at Château Beauregard, where so many Allium giganteums are planted that the garden has been successful at propagating them from seed in separate allium germination beds.
At the Chelsea Flower Show, where elegant white 'Mount Everest' alliums were used prominently in many of the top show gardens and where, inside the Grand Pavilion, there was the most stunning display of all the various kinds of alliums, all in perfect bloom, featured in one exceptional exhibit.
I don't know a gardener who doesn't love this spring-flowering bulb. Pretty much every garden I visit in May has alliums in bloom.
In Dublin, Helen Dillon, Ireland's most famous gardener, used clusters of Purple Sensation to complement clumps of purple hesperis (sweet rocket).
But it is, of course, the late great British garden guru Rosemary Verey who is probably most responsible for making alliums famous worldwide, thanks to her iconic use of dense borders of purple alliums lushly planted under the canopy of an avenue of yellow laburnum trees at Barnsley House in Gloucestershire.
One of the most amusing allium memories I have is coming into my own garden one day when the house was being painted and finding the painter down from his ladder and standing with his face inches away from the large spherical space-ship-like flower head of a beautiful Allium christophii (Star of Persia) at its peak.
"What on earth is that?" he asked, utterly transfixed by the compelling beauty of the thousands of tiny star-shaped florets that form a perfect sphere of purple and silver.
At Minter Gardens in Chilliwack, I had a similar experience, where I came upon a striking planting of variegated ribbon grasses with half a dozen Allium christophii pushing up through the grass's pale green-and-white foliage.
Over the years, I have added every kind of allium to my garden. Yes, I love them that much.
My favourites - the ones I use most - are, of course, the ones that gardeners everywhere use the most: Allium Purple Sensation, which look fantastic dotted through the perennial border or used to achieve knockout combinations, such as pushing up through the pale pink bottlebrush flowers of Persicaria bistorta Superba or up through ribbon grasses or as partners for euphorbia, bergenia and erysimum.
Allium christophii is my next pick and I like to plant them in groups of three, not too close because the spheres are quite large and you don't want them bumping into one another.
Allium giganteums are extremely robust with sturdy stems and weighty heads. They need room, but work beautifully as a key accent in a border. Globemaster is the most popular, but the white form, Mount Everest is gaining popularity.
The best display of Globemasters I saw this year was in the North Vancouver garden of Monique Wilberg, who had planted dozens of them in rows under a line of laburnum trees. But the best use of the white Mount Everest allium I have seen was in an exquisite sunken garden at the Chelsea Flower Show.
For novelty, I have planted the spidery Allium schubertii, but this is hardly competition for the majestic form of Allium bulgaricum which produces amazing clusters of tiny dangling purple-striped bell-shaped flowers.
For the spring border, I love to add the shorter forms, such as the bright yellow, Allium moly luteum, and white Allium Ivory Queen, at the same time I am planting muscari and dwarf daffodils.
I can't say that I have had much success with the blue or red varieties, Allium azureum and Allium ostrowskianum, although I admire both. And I am not interested at all in the weird Allium 'Hair' hybrid, which seems like a bit of a waste of energy and has very little esthetic appeal.
The opposite is true of the drumstick allium, A. sphaerocephalon, which produces lovely reddish purple cone-shaped flowers in July.
These are well worth finding room for and they are generous in their delivery of blooms. They make excellent companions for day lilies and heuchera, but fit in nicely even as stand-alone clumps in the perennial border.
Summer Drummer is a new variety that a lot of gardeners are raving about. It grows to about 1.8 metres high and produces large variegated 20-centimetre purple heads with tiny white florets. The bulbs are huge: about 12 cm wide.
Silver Spring is another new variety that grows about 66 cm and produces pale raspberry-pink flowers with dark maroon centres. It is said to give off the sweet scent of licorice.
September is the best time to go shopping for allium bulbs. You'll find a great selection in most garden centres, or you can go online to www.botanus. com and check out the comprehensive collection being offered there. They thrive in well drained soil in a sunny location.
Make it a priority to get as many kinds in the garden before the middle of October. You won't be disappointed.
It was a thrill this summer to visit the nursery of my friends, Lambert and Marjanne Vrijmoed, and discover a species of allium I had not yet been acquainted with - Allium senescens and a cultivar called Summer Beauty, as well as another form with bluish foliage called Allium senescens subsp. var. glaucum.
Summer Beauty produces purple-rose flowers on sturdy stems. It is drought tolerant and attracts bees, butterflies and birds.
The foliage remains attractive from early spring through fall.
In some gardens, the seeds may germinate, but in Lambert's experience "they have never seeded themselves in our garden, but rather form a clump, like a perennial with short, rhizome-like flat bulbs that are positioned close to the surface of the soil."
The common A. senescensis is known as German garlic or broadleaf chives.
The blue-leafed version has unusual twisting or spiralling leaves and is a little more compact, growing only 15 cm high, compared to about 30 cm of the other kinds.
Lambert has mass planted these alliums with blue salvia around a zigzagging raised plank-walk with a wattle fence behind and thalictrums planted behind that, to represent the Fraser River, the mountains (fencing) and the clouds over them (the billowy flowers of the thalictrum.) I have since added these alliums to my garden and am looking forward to seeing them get better and better over the years.

Slice app for iPhone Tracks Your Purchase History and Shipments In One Place
This holiday season, you will most likely purchase and ship a gift online as well as receive a package from family or friends that they have bought online. Keeping track of all those holiday shipments can be a hassle. Slice wants to serve as your one-stop-shop command center for tracking all of your shipments as well as your online purchasing history.
Slice does it by scanning your email inbox for all those confirmation emails you get right after you click "submit order" (after you grant it access to your inbox of course). It looks for shipping notifications, tracking numbers, return policies and customer service information and organizes it all in one place. From there, you can track your shipments, receive push notifications when your purchase has shipped, and look back at your purchase history if an item was lost or you want to purchase the same item later. Slice will even keep electronic receipts on file so you dont' have to go digging for paper receipts in the event you have to return an item.
The only knocks I have against Slice is that you can only choose between Gmail or Yahoo inboxes (sorry Hotmail and Outlook folks), and you can't link multiple inboxes from the same service (only one Gmail account at a time). So you will have to log out and log back in with a different account.
Looking for a simple way to track what you've bought online this season (cause I'm sure you're looking to avoid waiting in actual lines), check out Slice for iPhone and let us know what you think in the comments section.

Some Interesting News...
Bulgaria has sent some ancient golden treasures on tour to Paris, and now they are back home again for a few days before traveling to Switzerland and then to Japan. I had read something about the exhibition of the treasure a few months ago, but I hadn't seen any pictures of the pieces.
An article on the news.bg site, "Thracian Gold Treasure from Abroad Back in Bulgaria" includes a photo of one of the pieces. It's not a large photo, but if you look carefully, you can see that the creativity and detail are beautiful, and the workmanship is just incredible, particularly for something that was made around 400 BC.
I learned from a summary of various Thracian treasures that the piece I admired is a rhyton, a vessel that can be used either for drinking or for pouring liquids (as in a ceremony.) It is part of a group of rhytons that was found in a mountain town in central Bulgaria by brickworkers who were digging up clay.
The Thracians were known as great warriors; Spartacus, the gladiator slave who led a rebel war against the Romans, was a Thracian. And they were renowned throughout the ancient world as expert metalworkers; in The Iliad, Homer describes the Thracian King's golden armor as "a wonder to behold, such as it is in no wise fit for mortal men to bear, but for the deathless gods."
Source: "Treasures Fit For The Kings," by Jumana Farouky, published in Time, May 29, 2005.
If you like history, I encourage you to look at the links I've included here. They whetted my curiosity about the Thracians enough that I'm going to see if I can find an article about them in the decades of National Geographic magazines shelved in our hallway. (And there I have revealed the source of my fascination with treasures like this -- many, many hours spent with National Geographic as a child.)
I'm glad that the people of Bulgaria are learning more about their ancient history, and I am impressed that they are sharing these priceless treasures with the world by sending them on tour. They should be very proud.
If you have a National Geographic archive near at hand, check out these articles:
- July, 1980, "Ancient Bulgaria's Golden Treasure"
- June, 1988, "Visage From Ancient Thrace"
- Dec. 2006, "Bulgaria's Gold Rush"

From Prisoner to President in Pakistan
Released in 2004 after serving over eight years in jail on unproven criminal charges, Zardari lived abroad until his wife's tragic assassination on 27 December 2007. Returning to Pakistan, he took over her popular, left-of-centre Pakistan People's Party, and led it to victory in the general elections in February. But while the PPP won the largest number of seats in Parliament, it did not have an outright majority. Through a series of deft manoeuvres, Zardari stitched together a number of deals that allowed him to set up a coalition government that included a broad spectrum of political groupings across the country.
While even his many detractors regarded Zardari's non-confrontationist approach with grudging approval, they were aghast when his name was proposed for the indirect election to the presidency. This vacancy arose when Pervez Musharraf was forced to resign last month under the threat of impeachment. Earlier, Zardari had seemed willing to tolerate the ex-dictator in the presidency as a sop to the Americans who were alarmed at the power vacuum developing in the troubled front-line state in its war against the Taliban.
However, in an attempt to appease Nawaz Sharif, leader of his faction of Pakistan Muslim League (PML-N), the second biggest coalition partner in Parliament, he went along with the demand to impeach Musharraf.
"Mr Ten Percent"
Over the years, Zardari's name has become a synonym for political corruption. Nicknamed Mr Ten Percent for his reputation for skimming off commissions on government deals during his wife's two terms as prime minister in the Nineties, it is widely suspected that he will use his elevation to make even more money. However, the fact is that over 11 years, no court has convicted him of any crime.
In 2007, prosecution in all cases in Pakistan and abroad was halted due to the National Reconciliation Ordinance (NRO) promulgated by Musharraf. Part of a complex deal negotiated secretly with Ms Bhutto at Washington's instigation, this law granted amnesty to politicians and bureaucrats accused of crimes between 1990 and 1999. Although this controversial law let hundreds of people off the hook, it was widely viewed as Bhutto-specific.
Under this deal, Benazir Bhutto could return to Pakistan from exile, and fight the elections due in January. From the American perspective, the liberal PPP would give Musharraf political cover as he led the fight against Islamic extremism.
However, Ms Bhutto's murder changed the scenario, and Zardari's recent election has raised more questions than it has answered. Thus far, he has moved cautiously, fearing to ruffle the feathers of an army that remains Pakistan's most powerful institution, and one that has intervened in the political process time and again. Indeed, it has ruled directly for more than half of Pakistan's existence as an independent country.
The powers of the president
Critics point towards the fact that Zardari is now the most powerful civilian president the country has ever known. Under the original constitution, the post of the president is largely symbolic. However, after Musharraf staged his coup, he pushed through the notorious 17th Amendment that gave him sweeping powers.
When she was alive, Ms Bhutto had signed an agreement with Nawaz Sharif aimed at striking down this amendment. Now, people wonder if Zardari will remain true to his wife's pledge, even though he repeatedly stated that when elected, he would give up these powers to appoint and fire military chiefs, and dismiss Parliament.
Political football
It is possible that he will use this law as a bargaining chip to make Sharif withdraw the demand to reinstate Iftikahr Chaudhry, the chief justice of the Supreme Court sacked by Musharraf last year. This move triggered massive protests by the legal community and much of civil society. Since the elections, Sharif has become increasingly popular by sticking to the demand that the chief justice be reinstated.
Despite lengthy negotiations and a signed agreement, Zardari has not actually lent his support to Iftikhar Chaudhry's return to the supreme court. One reason could be that the independent-minded judge is known to disapprove of the NRO, and would probably re-open the cases against Zardari. He is also perceived as being pro-Nawaz Sharif, and has thus become a political football between the two rivals for power.
The threat of Islamic militancy
However, now that Zardari has become president, he faces a large number of challenges. First and foremost is the threat of Islamic militancy from the tribal areas. Last year, nearly 50 suicide attacks killed nearly a thousand Pakistanis across the country. The militants are threatening to continue their campaign unless the army withdraws from the border belt. However, attempts to negotiate separate peace deals with the Pakistani Taliban have not succeeded in the past as they have used the time and space to launch attacks in Afghanistan.
NATO and Western forces have viewed such attempts with strong disapproval. The recent American attack on Pakistani soil has caused a wave of anger.
The economy is in shambles, with inflation running at close to 30%, the rupee tumbling, and the stock market in meltdown. A collapse could well induce the army to intervene yet again. So whatever Zardari's many critics might say, his recent election is no bed of roses.

#1 Longest Period of High Unemployment Since Great Depression02-17-2012, 08:56 AM
CBO: Longest Period of High Unemployment Since Great Depression
After three years with unemployment topping 8 percent, the U.S. has seen the longest period of high unemployment since the Great Depression, the Congressional Budget Office noted in a report issued today.
And, despite some recent good news on the economic front, the CBO is still predicting that unemployment will remain above 8 percent until 2014. The report also notes that, including those who haven't sought work in the past four weeks and those who are working part-time but seeking full-time employment, the unemployment rate would be 15 percent.
Combine that with gas prices approaching $4 per gallon, possibly reaching $5 per gallon by the end of summer, and you have a recipe for extended economic misery.
In related news, the third anniversary of Obamas $800 billion stimulus legislation is approaching. You remember the stimulus the bill Obama said would keep unemployment from reaching 8%. Three years later, were looking at unemployment above 8% until 2014.
Liberalism is just communism sold by the drink.

Oppenheim Law
Lessons Learned From My Smartest Real Estate Clients -- Yahoo! Homes
News • Jul 25, 2012 14:51 EDT
Roy Oppenheim's commentary was originally published on Yahoo! Homes and is being redistributed on South Florida Law Blog with their permission.
For me, one of the most interesting things about being a real estate lawyer over the past quarter century is that I've had the chance, every once in a while, to look at my clients and see what skills, habits, and traits made them successful.
It is very revealing to see what makes one group of individuals more resilient than others, particularly during these difficult economic times.
By the early part of the last decade, it seemed as though many of my clients in the real estate industry could make a handsome living with virtually little effort. Whether they were part-time Realtors, mortgage brokers, builders, or average folks who became involved in flipping properties, everyone was hopping aboard the real estate express. Income flowed easily and the business seemed to roll in.
But the problem was that they all depended on three things:
- That the banks would keep on lending.
- That demand for real estate would remain steady.
- That real estate prices would keep rising.
And of course, as we now all know, none of those things happened. The party did come to an end, the bubble burst, and like kids playing a game of musical chairs, many did not find a place to sit.
So was it luck for those who found a chair or was it some innate skill set that allowed some to survive and even flourish while others perished? Well it is a little bit of both. I believe you can create your own luck through proper preparation and perseverance. I found several key traits among the clients who thrived despite the housing market collapse.

PEORIA — Police are reporting a drop in property and violent crimes despite a surge in homicides in 2013, with the number of shooting incidents expected to rise through 2014, thanks to newly installed gunshot detection technology.
Statistics calculated by police showed a 60 percent rise in homicides in 2013 compared with the previous year, with 16 deaths recorded in 2013 — though police officially did not count one justifiable homicide, the death of a boy found in a refrigerator that was ruled a homicide, or the shooting death of a woman who was kidnapped from Pekin but whose body was found in Peoria.
Chief Steve Settingsgaard said the homicide rate was an outlier compared with other violent crime in 2013, seeming higher in part because of an unusually low year in 2012, when 10 murders were logged. Overall violent crime was down 15 percent between years, he said.
"The murder rate itself is such a poor indicator of crime and safety, but it is the one that it easy to fixate on," Settingsgaard wrote in an email response to questions. "I am not saying that any murder is acceptable, I'm just saying that statistically the rate is very unreliable and often misleading."
Overall, nine fewer people were shot in 2013 than the previous year, amounting to a 10 percent year-over-year decline in that category, according to police statistics. Officers tallied 87 people shot in 2012 and 78 people shot in 2013.
The number of people who sought treatment at Peoria hospitals for gunshot wounds once again diverged from police totals in 2013, but the year-over-year differences between hospital numbers in 2013 and 2012 showed a similar decline.
According to figures provided by OSF Saint Francis Medical Center, UnityPoint Health-Methodist and UnityPoint Health-Proctor, 50 people sought treatment for gunshot wounds at the three hospitals in 2013, compared with 58 in 2012.
The installation of gunshot detection technology in the final weeks of 2013 is expected to have a significant effect on gun-related statistics in the coming year.
ShotSpotter, an acoustic monitoring system that records and pinpoints the location of gunfire, recorded 55 incidents of gunfire in targeted areas of South Peoria and the West Bluff from Nov. 19 through Monday — not counting 58 incidents on New Year's Eve alone.
"Thus far, only 18 percent of the incidents of gunfire are being reported outside of the ShotSpotter notification, so this new technology is going to greatly drive up the numbers for several of the gun crime statistics," Settingsgaard wrote. "It will not be indicative of an increase in actual gunfire, but rather an increase in our awareness of it."
Matt Buedel can be reached at 686-3154 or firstname.lastname@example.com. Follow him on Twitter @JournoBuedel.
Overall, city crime is down, shootings up
PEORIA — Police are reporting a drop in property and violent crimes despite a surge in homicides in 2013, with the number of shooting incidents expected to rise through 2014, thanks to newly installed gunshot detection technology.

Robot Chicken: Star Wars Episode II (UK - DVD R2)
Marcus watches action figures do great things with the new Robot Chicken DVD
Those Robot Chicken guys get a second pop at the Star Wars Saga with more spoofs and goofy takes on classic moments from the galaxy far, far away.
The last year or so has been full of great Star Wars references in TV and movies. From Family Guy specials, a Darth Vader cameo in Night at the Museum 2, Storm Troopers in Race to Witch Mountain and even a full on lightsaber battle in 17 Again, Star Wars has now totally slipped away from mere fanboy in-jokes to mainstream enjoyment.
The good thing about Star Wars is that the gags work for pretty much all of the audience, no matter how out there the take is and Robot Chicken has proven that they can go to the absolute limits of 'out there' and still be a blast. Now, I wouldn't say that I find these Star Wars specials particularly laugh out loud funny, but the general feel good factor of the sketches are unquantifiable. From the opening 'back from the dead assholes' Boba Fett Ewok massacre, Robot Chicken just puts a huge fan boy smile on face. What Star Wars fan doesn't want to see a cocky Boba Fett flashing lightsabers, getting Princess Leia and using his rocket launchers to destroy fleeing Ewoks?
Other sketches that work wonders include Doctor Ball. Having the droid from A New Hope questioning the many medical choices made in the later Star Wars movies is great stuff. Asking if they are trying to drown Luke in Empire and sarcastically questioning 'she's lost the will to live?' to the doctor droid's diagnosis of Padme in Revenge of the Sith is simple but effective stuff in the Star Wars universe. Also the sketch with a couple of Tauntauns' reactions to their friend not coming back with Han after he saved Luke on Hoth is inspired stuff as is Palpatine's take on Yoda's classic 'Do or do not. There is no try'. Though I doubt Lucas would have gone for 'There's do and there's fucking up royal'. Also, retuning classics like carrying on the first Robot Chicken Star Wars Admiral Akbar cereal gag is great and it's staggering how far Akbar's 'It's a trap' can run as a punch line.
Robot Chicken Star Wars is just the sort of thing that I can throw on and enjoy time and time again and while some of the gags fall a little flat and this second outing isn't quite as entertaining as the first one was for me, I love the level of detail on offer here as well as the love of the saga that's on show, whether it be the attention to detail in the replication of the sets or somehow making the weirdest of characterisations somehow feel totally genuine. Boba Fett as a show off frat boy always puts a smile on my face and the imagining of the dinner party Vader invited Han, Chewie and Leia to join on cloud city is just what makes these projects so much fun. Oh and it's great that it's not just me that finds Lando wearing Han's clothes at the end of Empire Strikes Back so weird.
Robot Chicken never ceases to amaze me with its model and action figure work and it looks fantastic here. The image is impressively sharp and detailed for DVD, with colours and lighting really looking great with a hugely effective cinematic feel in all of the sketches (well except the Geonosian arena advert—but that's intentional).
Image quality remains consistent throughout and other than looking a little soft in places, Robot Chicken really is an impressive presentation that once again outdoes any pre-conceptions I had with its lo-fi background.
There are moments where you forget the fairly crude nature of this project and the jump up to 5.1 is an area that makes this feel that bit more like Star Wars. The track is actually quite impressive despite its limitations, with sound effects spread nicely throughout the track and the dialogue strong in the front speakers.
Explosions and general Star Wars-esq sound effects are dotted about at just the right moments and broaden the Robot Chicken canvas and even though this is never going to sound like an actual Star Wars movie it does a bang up job at sounding as good as a lot of higher end TV shows out there.
Once again Robot Chicken comes packed with extras including an 'extended version' of the special (38:12). Starting with the commentaries, of which there are six, you'll get to listen to two actor ones, including Robot Chickeners Seth Green and Breckin Meyer, as well as Donald Faison, Billy Dee Williams, Ahmed Best and Rachel Leigh Cook. Then there're the writer and crew ones, which are just as fun, and lastly we arrive at the more Star Wars themed ones. The 'Clone Wars special guests' commentary includes Dave Filoni and Matthew Wood and the Frank Oz commentary tracks are great on many levels. Whether it be their personal Star Wars experiences or being amazed by the work the Robot Chicken guys have done, these commentary tracks are a great listen and just as entertaining as the tracks on the first Robot Chicken DVD.
'Chicken Nuggets' is a feature that allows you to jump out of each scene as you watch the show and watch a video commentary. 'The Making of RCSWII' (06:01) is short and sweet and covers quite a bit in a small amount of time, while 'Animation Meeting' (06:31) shows Seth Green acting out the scenes for the animators or as it's introduced 'Seth acting like a dork for six minutes'.
'Skywalker Ranch Premiere' (04:27) pretty much highlights that everyone working on the show has the best job ever. Taking the finished show to the ranch and having George Lucas not only attend the screening but give high praise and even play along with a gag amongst the writers about who wrote a specific scene is just great to see as is when Matt, Seth, Tom and Doug became members of the 501st Legion in the '501st Visit' (02:38).
'Behind The Scenes: Sneak Peak' (02:40) is a bit of a filler as are the fun rejected pitches in 'Accepted/Rejected' (03:52). The 'Time Lapse' (07:15) stuff is as eye opening as ever and the 'Production Design' (09:19) takes a focused look at the fantastic work this show does so well and the attention to detail they achieve.
The 'Video Blogs' (11:16) which feature 'Writing Process', Voice Recordings' and 'Puppet Making' are great insights, especially Billy Dee Williams making every line of his dialogue sound like the coolest line ever and 'Deleted Animatics' (00:27) isn't really what it says it is but a brief explanation that nothing was deleted, so there's nothing to show.
'Alternative Audio' (09:29) has a few different takes set to some still images of the show and 'On Air Bumps' (02:10), 'Promo Spots' (03:18) and 'Trailers' are a mixture of ads for the show as well as other Adult Swim shows.
Lastly there are two bonus episodes of regular Robot Chicken (11:37 each). So, all in all this is a great package for a single episode of a show and thoroughly enjoyably for anyone who's a fan of Star Wars or indeed Robot Chicken and the work they do.
With two specials already under their belt, I hope that Robot Chicken continue to provide more Star Wars spoofs in the future. This is mainly because I find this kind of Star Wars themed fun continually enjoyable (as well as taking great joy in seeing Action Figures used like this) and having it as a yearly event would be something I'd really look forward to (especially if they continue to get actual Star Wars veterans involved).
As for the disc itself, the AV is well above what I'd expect for the release and it's packed with fun, short and sweet features that include some of the most enjoyable commentaries I've listened to in a while. So this is an easy recommendation.

Obi Wan the Drunk, yeah, genius. Good times.
Will pick this up when it drops to £5 in a week or so, never finished the commentaries for the first one, but love the Seth Green ones.

Local RV Show to Return to Elkhart in August
June 9, 2010 by RVBusiness · Comments Off on Local RV Show to Return to Elkhart in August
The Midwest RV Super Show used to be a huge event for the RV industry at the Elkhart County (Ind.) Fairgrounds every summer, but last year it was canceled due to the economy. Now it looks like it is making a comeback — of sorts — this year, according to television station WSBT, South Bend, Ind.
Organizers are hoping to hold a smaller show in August at the downtown Elkhart Civic Plaza. The city of Elkhart is working with a statewide RV organization to make it happen.
Some RV dealers in the Elkhart area say they are noticing a turnaround in business, and that sales are beginning to pick up compared to a year ago. There are not as many RV dealers now as there were two years ago, but the existing dealers want to get the word out about their product lines.
That's what the city and the Recreation Vehicle Indiana Council (RVIC) want to do, so they're teaming up for an RV show to accomplish that.
"It's not news to anybody that the RV industry has been in a bit of a downturn recently, but things are coming back, especially at the manufacturing level," said RVIC Executive Director Mark Bowersox. "We want to get the message out there that Elkhart is still the RV capital, and so there will be dealers from the city of Elkhart as well as the surrounding county, and really a lot of product that is made here locally."
"I can feel the good times coming back," said Hank Schrock, president of Total Value RV, Elkhart. "It's starting to come back this spring, and we are looking forward to doing some more shows."
Plans call for the show to be held for three days, Aug. 13-15. The city says it has the potential to attract 8,000 people to the downtown area.

It was a team effort for the Buccaneers as all five goals were scored by five different players. Freshman Ashley Craig (
The Lady Bisons shut down ETSU in the first half while taking control offensively with a 2-0 start. But the second half proved to be all ETSU as the Buccaneers scored five goals in the period and kept Lipscomb scoreless.
"We definitely didn't maintain possession in the first half and they took advantage of it," said head women's soccer coach Heather Henson. "The second half we found our feet and created more scoring opportunities. We battled through and kept taking shots and earning corners."
In the first half shots were even with both teams making seven. In the second half ETSU out-shot the Lady Bisons 24-3 to finish with a 31-10 shot advantage.
For Lipscomb, Melissa Chambers led the attack scoring both goals.

Metastatic malignant tumors comprise the vast majority of spinal tumors in adults. The most devastating complication of spinal metastatic disease (SMD) is invasion of the spinal canal and compression of the spinal cord or the nerve roots of the cauda equina, resulting in a clinical entity known as cord compression that manifests with progressive loss of motor function and sensation in the legs, as well as bladder and bowel incontinence.
The treatment of spinal metastases is mostly palliative with the goals of improving or maintaining neurologic function, achieving local tumor control, and spinal stability. Most patients with spinal metastatic disease are currently treated effectively with radiation therapy and/or surgery with good results. There are however certain limitations in the current treatment of SMD. Radiation therapy has two important limitations: 1) if the targeted SMD is in close proximity the spinal cord, delivery of high radiation doses is contraindicated as it may cause radiation-induced damage to the spinal cord (myelopathy, and 2) there is limit on the cumulative amount of radiation dose, which means that recurrent tumors may not be amenable to repeat radiation therapy. As far spinal surgery is concerned, the main limitation is that some patients are not fit for surgery because of medical co-morbidities.
This phase I clinical research trial will test the hypothesis that a new minimally invasive treatment called spinal intra-arterial chemotherapy (SIAC) can be safely applied in patients with SMD.
|Condition or disease
|Spinal Diseases Spinal Metastases Spinal Tumors
|Drug: Melphalan (intra-arterial infusion)
|Phase 1
To date, there is no effective systemic therapy for spinal metastases, and the goal of treatment is to achieve local control of the tumor. Despite advances in radiation therapy, there is still a subgroup of patients that cannot be effectively treated with radiation because of close proximity of the tumor to the spinal cord. In addition, in cases of recurrent tumors, some patients cannot be re-treated because they reached the maximum allowed radiation dose. Surgery is the alternative treatment for these patients, but some tumors do recur after surgery while some patients have comorbidities that make surgery a high-risk procedure.
Based on our prior experience with selective IA chemotherapy for the treatment of ocular retinoblastoma and the high local control rates achieved with selective IA injection of chemotherapy in recurrent limb melanoma (limb infusion and limb perfusion) we expect that spinal intra-arterial chemotherapy with selective injection of Melphalan in the arteries feeding the metastatic disease is feasible and safe and may prove beneficial in achieving local control of the spinal tumor, preventing neurological compromise from cord compression. This minimally invasive approach can be used in patients in whom radiation therapy and surgery are contra-indicated and essentially have no other treatment options.

|Estimated Study Completion Date :
|December 2022
Experimental: Selective intra-arterial chemotherapy
Subjects recruited to this study will receive intra-arterial injections of chemotherapy (melphalan) in the branches of the arteries feeding the metastatic spinal tumor. Subjects will receive general anesthesia or conscious sedation. A catheter will be guided using X-ray from the femoral artery at the top of the leg to the arteries of the spine. A dye will be injected through the catheter to show the arteries in greater detail. The chemotherapy is then injected into the tumor. We will inject the maximum systemic dose adjusted to white blood count and platelet count. Subjects will undergo three cycles of chemotherapy three to six weeks apart.
Drug: Melphalan (intra-arterial infusion)
Patients will undergo a minimally invasive procedure called spinal angiography. This procedure will identify the arteries feeding the tumor causing cord compression and will determine whether chemotherapy can be safely infused.
The chemotherapy will be infused via a tiny soft plastic tube (called "microcatheter") at the tumor site over approximately 30 minutes.
The drug of choice is melphalan (trade name Alkeran) at a maximum dose of 16mg/m2, adjusted for white cell count, platelet count and renal function.
We will perform up to three intra-arterial chemotherapy treatments in 3-6 week intervals, based on the results of complete blood counts.
