Social Integration Going Once, Going Twice ...
No. Just two little letters. So easy to spell, but so hard to say. At least for me anyway. Yesterday I received a call from the executive director at Cameron's school, asking if I would consider being this year's auction chair. Of course I said yes. But now I'm wondering if it's going to cost me months of psychotherapy. Am I crazy to take this on? I have no idea how to chair a school auction! Aren't auctions a bit like the Olympic Games, as in they're supposed to be "the best ever"? I assume the chairperson is expected to top the previous year's fundraising, make sure everyone has more fun than at any prior school event, and build a sense of community for those newcomers in the midst. I know how to throw a party, but when it comes to meeting the above expectations I get a little nervous.
All this pressure has me thinking: How would Cameron feel if he were in my shoes? Would he be nervous? If you don't abide by societal norms, does that mean you don't feel the pressure to live up to expectations society has of us? I don't desire the freedom to belch and scratch in public, but I'm finding myself daydreaming about what it would be like to not care what others think of my actions. I'd love the freedom to just do what I want, without regard to how others feel towards me. Just for a day.
What is it like to be Cameron in society? I would really like to know. Is he making an effort just because he thinks that's what I want him to do, or does he have an internal desire to fit in? I can't answer that question with any degree of certainty. I can't even tell you whether or not Cameron realizes he's different from most people. I've told him he's different, but did that hurt his feelings? Does he care?
My gut tells me that Cameron wants to fit in. While at a restaurant recently, I asked the waiter for his recommendation between two starters I was considering. When it came time for dessert, Cameron asked the waiter which sounded better to him: a selection of ice cream and sorbets or chocolate soufflé? When the waiter left, Cameron told me he had seen me ask the waiter for help, so he decided to do it too. I was thrilled he asked the waiter, and didn't ask me to chime in. Of course, I had my answer ready for him, but was pleasantly surprised I didn't need to offer it. (The soufflé was delicious, by the way.)
So maybe when it comes to dealing with my anxiety about the school auction, I should borrow a page from Cameron's guide. I should find someone that sets a good example of how to be successful, and emulate that person. Whether or not Cameron emulates because he innately wants to fit in, or because he's been conditioned to do so by years of prompting doesn't really matter much to me. The fact he makes the effort is what matters.

Gender Reassignment Surgery in Papua New Guinea (PG) - General Information
Perhaps you've heard about sex reassignment or more commonly known as sex-change but do you know exactly what it is or how it is done? The truth is, very few people do, even those who are actually interested in undergoing this body procedure.
By definition, gender reassignment is a procedure which changes genital organs from one sex to another. It is actually one of the newest branches of plastic surgery. There are two kinds of people who can take advantage of this procedure – newborns who have intersex deformities and adult men and women who believe that they are physically of a different sex that what they are mentally and emotionally.

Gender Reassignment Surgery in Papua New Guinea (PG) - Additional Information
At present, male to female conversions are more common, however, there are also successful body procedure involving female to male SRS. In the United States, gender reassignment procedures are estimated at 100 to 500 people and the number for the world is estimated at 2 to 5 times larger. SRS is usually conducted in private facilities, many of which are outside the US. Thailand is one of the most common destinations for people who wish to undergo gender reassignment but there are already a number of plastic surgery clinics in the country offering this service.
[gender reassignment surgery Papua New Guinea top]
Gender Reassignment Surgery in Papua New Guinea (PG) - The Procedure
Male to female SRS requires the removal of the penis and reshaping the genital tissue to appear like a vagina. This body procedure is called a vaginoplasty. The vagina is usually formed from a skin graft or an isolated loop of intestine. After the surgery, the patient will be required to take in female hormones (usually estrogen) to help the body attain more female contours and full breasts.
To answer the most pressing question on sex-change today – yes, people who have undergone sex reassignment have reported that they still have a capacity to experience a degree of erogenous sensations.

I was so anxious about the idea of circumcision that I actually hoped for a girl. I didn't get a girl. I got two beautiful boys instead, and therefore had to make the decision twice. Though our sons were born four years apart, my partner Abbie and I gave equal consideration to the question of whether of not to circumcise with each one.
With our first son, Tommy, I had nightmares that if we chose circumcision, the doctor would make a mistake. I knew the statistics were low, but that rarely soothes an anxious mom-to-be. I worried the procedure was obsolete. When I looked around the room at my friends' sons, many if not most were uncircumcised.
Plus: "Why I Didn't Circumcise"
About a month before Abbie was due to give birth to Tommy, we visited my parents out on Long Island. At dinner, we talked about interviewing pediatricians in our Brooklyn neighborhood of Cobble Hill. We were looking for a doctor who struck a balance between holistic and traditional Western approaches to medicine and childcare.
We had a few things down. Abbie planned to breastfeed—or at least to try. We understood that antibiotics were at times necessary to treat ear infections. We believed in and felt adamant about vaccinating our child.
But the one place where we were both still unsure was on the topic of circumcision. Abbie and I didn't yet know the sex of our child, but admitting that we were even questioning whether or not to circumcise our son set off a slew of opinions at the table that evening.
"You have to circumcise him!" said my sister Melanie, an emergency room doctor who has seen her fair share of infected uncircumcised penises and urinary tract infections, and whom I trust immensely.
My other sister, Meredith, an amazing mother of three boys who were all circumcised, agreed. "It's unsanitary," she said. "I can barely get my kids to brush their teeth at night. And imagine him in the locker room when he's a teenager."
Plus: Our Total Guide to Circumcision
Our best friend and sperm donor, Tim, who is circumcised, was more aligned with Abbie and me. He questioned, like me, if the procedure was outdated and based more on social customs than medical necessity. And, like Abbie, he wondered whether the benefits outweighed the trauma.
Health! Melanie reinforced. Hygiene! Meredith repeated. Is it really necessary? Tim asked honestly.
All of the impassioned arguments and questions raised during this discussion gave us plenty to consider. To be honest, as lesbians, neither Abbie nor I had spent a tremendous amount of time thinking about circumcision in the first place. But it was clear that as soon-to-be parents, we had a lot to learn.
And so we began our research. Prior to this conversation, we'd been leaning toward not circumcising our child if he was a boy. We trusted that Tim could teach him how to be sanitary and avoid infections. We didn't care about the aesthetics. As two women and a gay man raising children together, we did not feel particularly bound to social custom or tradition. We researched the varied perspectives and we considered the ethics and our child's individual rights over his body. We knew that this was a big decision—one of many—and we took our responsibility seriously.
We respected both sides of the argument, but the medical evidence supporting the use of circumcision to prevent STDs and penile cancer, and to reduce UTIs compelled us. We were finally persuaded when the World Health Organization and UNAIDS issued a joint statement in 2007 supporting the link between male circumcision and HIV prevention. Suddenly we felt that we were making a decision that could not only protect the health of our child, but could save his life. We spoke with the pediatrician we'd chosen and our OB/GYN, who would be performing the surgery, and both agreed with our position.
Plus: 8 Times Your Pediatrician Wants You to Call
That said, when our OB/GYN first held up our newborn and announced that it was a boy, I soon returned to my earlier fear that something would go wrong during the circumcision procedure. I felt confident in our decision, but I was more terrified that our doctor would make a mistake during this operation than I was when she performed Abbie's C-section.
The next day, I decided to go with Tommy for the operation. I didn't want to send him alone. He was given anesthesia and I pressed my face to his and I held his hand. All in all, the procedure did not take more than five minutes and was a success.
Was it an easy decision to make? No. Do I think we made the right decision? Yes. Do I know that Abbie and I investigated, explored and considered all of our options and with the help of professionals and our own reflection decided on what was best for our child? Absolutely. Hearing that the American Academy of Pediatrics now also feels the benefits outweigh the risk only reinforces our decision.
Before our second son, Teo, was born, we continued to educate ourselves on the procedure. Both Abbie and I were open to the idea that the evidence may have changed. We did not just assume that we'd follow the same path with our second child to make sure he shared this trait with his older brother. We approached the decision in much the same way and, again, in the end, we found the medical evidence to be the most persuasive factor.
Just as I had with Tommy, I stayed with Teo during his procedure. I pressed my face to his face. I held his hand. I knew I'd made this decision with care and thought and I felt, and still feel, that it is one that will benefit him.
I don't expect everyone to understand or agree with the choice that Abbie and I made for our sons. When Tommy and Teo are naked at the beach with friends, often they are in the minority because they are circumcised. And that's okay. For us it was never about fitting in or following customs. We made our decision based on the information that we had and trusted, and our own expectations and fears and hopes for our children's future.

The AS50 fifty caliber (12.7mm) sniper / antimateriel rifle is the latest development of the famous British company Accuracy International Ltd. First displayed in January 2005 in USA at the ShotShow-2005, this rifle reportedly has been developed especially for US SOCOM users, and is now being tested by the US NAVY Special Operations center. The AS50 is to provide combat operators with highly accurate and rapid aimed fire at extended ranges. To achieve such goal, the AS50 is built around gas operated, semiautomatic action, with "single rear locking" (most probably, this mean a tilting bolt). The two-part receiver is machined from high grade steel, the barrel is free-floated and fitted with effective muzzle brake. Easily detachable buttstock is fitted with recoil-reducing buttpad, as well as with folding rear grip, which also serves as a rear support leg. The folding quick-detachable bipod with adjustable legs is fitted as a standard. Top of the receiver is equipped with full length Picatinny type rail which can accept any compatible scope mount; two additional rails are mounted on either side of the short handguard / barrel jacket. Rifle is fitted with four sling mounts, and can be brought down to basic sub-assemblies within three minutes for maintenance or compact transportation or storage. Rifle is fed using single stack detachable box magazines, which holt five rounds of ammunition.
Considering the battlefield environment of PA, when it would encage the enemy, the ability to generate a rapid rate kill which is at day and night. Translated, would mean a severing damage inflicted on the enemy soldier's moral.
PA would essentially encage in combat in three different geographically situated environments which would be priority capture areas. One being the Siachen, arctic ice weather and remote manoeuvrability makes it ideal for PA to employ long range precision sniper teams. Two being farm lands of the Indus Plains, green and with a tinge of forestry allows PA to force a decisive result in our favor. Three being deserts, dunes and marshes ..... which by any effect would not be suitable for snipers.
So two out of three makes it reasonably good for PA to raise 25-50 units, which would be scattered across the army and also would feature in Special Ops (which i assume they aleady are).

Google is the name of one of the most well-used search engines on the Web. It has become such a basic part of using the Internet that Google has become a verb. In the past, if a person were looking for something on the Internet, he would "search for it on Google" or "use Google to search for it." Now, he just "googles it." Googling can also refer to looking for information about a new/potential boyfriend or girlfriend on the Internet by typing his or her name into Google. "She wanted to find out more about him so she googled him."

News and Events: Press releases
UNICEF and Ministry of Education provide 10,000 school benches to Liberian schools
The Ministry of Education thanked UNICEF for the donation, describing it as timely and greatly needed.
Theres no such time than now that our schools are need of furniture. Our partners, especially in the donor community, need to know that Liberias schools were massively looted during the war and most of them remain without basic furniture. So these benches are very helpful in addressing the seating problems facing many schools, as we strive to rebuild our educational system, said the Minister of Education, the Hon. Joseph Korto. This is part of the Governments 150-day deliverables to our people and its an indication of how we are working to rebuild our country.
UNICEF Liberias Officer-in-Charge Bjorn E. Forssen said the benches will go to government schools which are offering the Accelerated Learning Programme (ALP) in the five counties. ALP condenses six years of primary schooling into three years of intensive activities to enable children and youth make up for lost educational years.
ALP schools serve an extremely useful function in the rehabilitation and reintegration of war-affected children, including returning refugees, demobilized children associated with fighting forces and all those whose education has been repeatedly disrupted over the last 15 years, Forssen said. By this donation to our partners at the Ministry of Education, UNICEF is assuring the Government of its commitment to helping it revive Liberias educational sector.
Forssen has pledged UNICEFs continued collaboration with the Ministry of Education, stressing the crucial task before the ministry in Liberias post-conflict recovery and reconstruction drive.

What an enormous pile of shite!
What a Warnke!
A Council of Europe committee has given voice to various trick cyclists and concluded that rural schools should be cut off from the internet, and that heliographs are the mobile technology of the future. The report comes from the Committee on the Environment, Agriculture and Local and Regional Affairs, and recommends that …
What an enormous pile of shite!
What a Warnke!
... I don't agree with the content of this piece, but frankly it reads like a rant rather than informed opinion. Come on, El Reg, you can do better than this.
...you might as well have a massive rant about how fucking stupid people are, and how rubbish modern journalism is. Who drinks lemonade anyway?
...when the twats write this sort of drivel and believe it, the only thing left to do is to prepare the B-Ark and tell them that it's an RFI-shielded dome for them to live in for ever.
Someone needs to seriously consider extermination for the hard of thought.
Anyone who would write something like that IS "hard of thought".
"Magnets to Overcome Pain: The New Healing Method"
Being near magnets heals you, being near electromagnetic waves kills you. Evidence? Try looking in his wallet.
These people need to get themselves away from any source of radiation as soon as possible.
Without wireless, cars, TV etc we should be reasonably safe from having to hear their drivel. Sure they could write a letter, but as the sun emits radiation could they step outside to post it?
Do they realise the air around us is generally humming with radio on different frequencies, or that microwaves are everywhere?
Are these the same type of people who won't allow their kids to have an X-Ray following a bad fall because of the radiation risk (and never mind what that possibly broken bone might do untreated)?
What a waste of time (this comment and the report!)
If not I think that alone should be enough to write the whole report off as bullshit.
Because if they do, then that's me.
But fortunately inverse square rules mean that using on speakerphone isn't a problem.
What were the double-blind trials like? When will the results be published in Nature? Are you planning on getting an agent?
Really ?
Do you have a copy of the double blind tests and he report detailing your sensitivity. I missed out on your TV interview as well. If you can give me a you tube link I would be grateful
I love that quote - sums up the entire amount of credibility right there.
In other words - zero, of course.
The Council of Europe report mentions public opinion regarding RF, but fails to mention that the same public opinion is influenced by newspaper articles - which are in turn, based on reports like that of the Council of Europe. It is like the dodgy dossier that was used to justify the war in Iraq - once enough people say something, it must be true, regardless of any inconvenient evidence to the contrary.
Anyone who is 'electro-sensitive' would surely be able to get a nice, free million from Mr Randi if he can re-produce his feat under controlled conditions.
If not then it should be given all the credance due to magnet-healing, dowsing and Uri Geller.
Anecdotes != evidence.
Proper testing has been done.
There is no evidence that so called "Electrosensitive" people are any more accurate at deciding a transmitter is on or off than a tossed coin.
See also "random walks" as to why a tossed coin doesn't get it right exactly 50% of times and why a large number of trials are needed.
Evidence that
People are "Electrosensitive". No.
Magnets are any better than Placebo . No.
Masts have any more effect than Nocebo. No
Makes any difference if Mast is live or off. No.
One of the UK cellular operators (I can't remember which one) had a load of complaints from residents about a new base station. People were complaining of headaches, nausea, etc - all purportedly due to the RF radiation from the base station. Then the operator told them that the base station had never been switched on in the several months since installation, due to the receipt of a load of residents' complaints.....
I worked with one of the people involved in that.
i can see this report being touted as evidence for decades to come.
By the way, if there's any one group of people that should be concerned about this, it should be mobile telecoms engineers involved in test of these systems, resulting in frequent constant exposure to high levels of EM radiation.
It's the people living near Crystal Palace transmitter I feel sorry for, with an output of several million times the average mobile phone mast. The kids in the language school less than 100m away must have a life expectancy of a week.
So how long ago was this ?
No reports of kids melting in Crystal Palace I call BS.
... I assume you've heard of it?
(We *really* need a sarcasm font)
Wonder if this'll kill PLT?
As I sit here in my manshed (wonderful thing that it is) with my ring main running around it at about belly height, with the consumption thingy indicating about 430w, that I should be worried at all?
After all that's far more power than a wifi or my mobile phone. Oh and what about the blue tooth dongle? And then there is the aircon, when that runs I must have over a kilowatt running around the shed!
Oh and it already has tin foil insulation so it's all being radiated inside. Aaaaaaaaarrrggghhh! Run awaaaaaaaaayyyy....
...can you post hourly updates? That way if you drop off the net suddenly, I'll know that I'll have to do something about my own wifi sometime in the next decade or two.....
"We can only hope it gets rejected by the Parliamentary Assembly"
Is there anything we could actually do, would a letter to my euro-MP help or is this a series of committees that are beyond reproach?
Because electro-sensitivity is complete bull-plop. I have grown up in the shadow of Sandy Heath transmitter, which until last month, was pushing out 1 Million watts of TV transmissions. Crystal Palace in London and the Sutton Coldfield transmitters are also 1MW ERP transmitters until they power off their analogue services. If there were problems living with high-powered RF fields, there would have been massive numbers of people being taken ill in the areas around the transmitters. We're all fine thanks!
at the moment....
But since the power from the muxes is now at summat like 180KW, you will soon be frying in your own juices.
All this digital stuff switching on and off so suddenly causes the fat cells in your brain to turn to strawberry jam....I read it in a green book somewhere.......it was a page or two before the one that said the ideal population of the planet was a half million people.... :-)
The analogue transmitters were pumping out 1 Million Watts of Effective Radiated Power. The digital signal is a mere 200 kilo Watts (ERP). You do realise that is a smaller number? It has gone from a lighthouse search-light to a candle!
Have the supposed "electrosensitives" been tested in double-blind trials? Surely that must be done first. If they fail the test (and I expect they will), send them off for counselling.
There was at least 1 study (that I am aware of). It showed that an conspicuous -but unplugged- box induces unbearable headaches while a hidden transmitter happily churning out microwave radiations is no problem at all (or something to that effect).
Unfortunatly, I read the linked article in the express and it made me sad. I particularly
"When it came to household domestic appliances such as microwaves ... the body warned that leaving them on standby 24 hours a day meant that the products would constantly be emitting electromagnetic radiation"
I'm going to go cry quietly into a pint that people who are even willing to consider this report as anything more than toilet paper (i.e. have no idea what they are talking about) have the power to make recommendations of any kind, on anything, ever
But phrased in such a way as to cause credulous people to get frightened.
> "When it came to household domestic appliances such as microwaves ... the body warned that leaving them on standby 24 hours a day meant that the products would constantly be emitting electromagnetic radiation"
Leaving their brains on 24 hours a day would mean that they are constantly emitting electromagnetic radiation. Not much chance of that though.
The Council of Europe is quite distinct from the European Union (and its very own European Council) - well, except in so far as they're both composed of self-serving has-been/never-were politicos sucking at the collective teat ... as you were, then.
BTW Dr Warnke, another example of nominative determinism?
Thye ought to ship that report (and the rest of the EU) down the road to the LHC to see how much concentrated stupid it takes to create a black hole.
There is no point complaining to the EU Parliament, since the Council of Europe is an association of most of the states in Europe, from Iceland to the Urals, including many countries not inside the European Union.
All its committees are manned by national diplomats, who then bring in experts. How this works depends on whether the particular diplomats have a clue about the subject. So you have the excellent Council of Europe report setting out minimum standards for e-democracy: and this badly researched report.
Seeing as only one mobico has guaranteed metro and city coverage you should all pop down here. No phone calls = no radiation ;)
Para 35 ... "The representatives of mobile telephony have for years espoused the same paradigm and the same line of argument, in which they invoke the soothing discourse of most international agencies and institutions ...[snip]...
At very high levels, the radio frequency fields are plainly liable to produce harmful thermal effects on the human body, in the estimation of all parties moreover."
They say drinking a litre of water a day is OK, but drinking excessively large quantities of water is deadly, and everyone agreed.
Maybe their time should be spent legislating against Dihydrogen Monoxide much nastier:
* is called "hydroxyl acid", the substance is the major component of acid rain.
* contributes to the "greenhouse effect".
* may cause severe burns.
* is fatal if inhaled.
* contributes to the erosion of our natural landscape.
* accelerates corrosion and rusting of many metals.
* may cause electrical failures and decreased effectiveness of automobile brakes.
* has been found in excised tumors of terminal cancer patients.
Despite the danger, dihydrogen monoxide is often used:
* as an industrial solvent and coolant.
* in nuclear power plants.
* in the production of Styrofoam.
* as a fire retardant.
you could have added "Is used in some forms of torture"
Nasty, nasty stuff. Found some in the kitchen the other day!

Every year on Sept. 15 — unless, like this year [written in 2013], Sunday takes precedence — the Church commemorates the memorial of Our Lady of Sorrows.
St. Paul told the Corinthians that "we preach Christ crucified" (1 Cor 1:23), and St. Clement I, the fourth pope, urged the Christians of the late first century to "look steadfastly to the blood of Christ" that was shed on the cross. It was only a matter of time before Christians, in contemplating Christ's crucifixion, would also turn their attention to those standing near the cross, especially his sorrowful mother.
Dr. Robert Fastiggi, professor of systematic theology at Sacred Heart Major Seminary in Detroit and vice president of the Mariological Society of America, helped trace for Our Sunday Visitor the development of devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows through the Middle Ages. Eastern Fathers from the third century reflected on the sword that Simeon prophesied would pierce Mary's soul (Lk 2:35). Jacob of Serugh (451-521), a Syrian poet and theologian, prayed to Christ:
"Your Mother endured great suffering for you and was beset by every kind of distress because of your Crucifixion. So much grief, so many tears shed by those eyes when they buried you, placing you in the tomb. So much horror endured by the Mother of Mercy at your burial, when the guardians of the tomb took hold of you. What suffering she endured when she saw you hanging from the cross, and they pierced your side with the lance of Golgotha."
In subsequent centuries, Eastern writers continued to contemplate Mary's suffering. At the end of the first millennium, the Greek writer Symeon the Metaphrast expressed Mary's sorrow as she held her son's body:
"Your hands and your feet are pierced, but I feel the nails bringing torture to my innermost soul. Your side has been pierced, but my heart too has been pierced at the same time. I too am crucified by your sufferings, have died in your Passion, and am buried with you."
"Although these Eastern Christian writers manifested devotion to Mary's sorrows, it seems that this devotion really grew in prominence in the Latin West during the Middle Ages," Fastiggi observed. In the early 12th century, Rupert of Deutz, a German Benedictine, linked Mary's suffering to labor pains:
Because they were truly "pains of a woman in labor" (Ps 48:7) … in the Passion of the only begotten Son the Blessed Virgin brought forth the salvation of us all, she is obviously the mother of us all.
Prayerful reflection on Sacred Scripture led to the numbering of Mary's sorrows, or dolors, at seven (see sidebar).
In the 13th century, two events occurred that spurred on devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows: the founding of the Servite Order and the writing of the "Stabat Mater."
In 1233, seven cloth merchants left Florence to live a life of prayer and penance. Later, the Blessed Mother appeared to them and said, "I have chosen you to be my first servants, and under this name you are to till my Son's vineyard. Here, too, is the habit which you are to wear; its dark color will recall the pangs which I suffered on the day when I stood by the Cross of my only Son." Their order became known as the Order of Servants of Mary, or Servites.
According to a British history of the order, Mary told them to wear the habit "not only in memory of her bitter sorrows and anguish, but also in token that this pious remembrance was, through their means, to become perpetuated throughout the earth." Thus, as the order grew in numbers, its members spread devotion to Mary's sorrows.
Features of the devotion included the wearing of the black scapular of the seven sorrows of Mary and the recitation of the Servite Rosary, also known as the Rosary (or chaplet) of the seven sorrows.
In 1645, Pope Innocent X established the Servites' Confraternity of Our Lady of Sorrows in its present form. Members of confraternity wear the black scapular, say certain prayers and engage in works of mercy. In subsequent centuries, the Servites also promoted the Via Matris (Way of the Mother), a counterpart to the Stations of the Cross, in which the faithful meditate on Mary's seven sorrows.
Within decades of the founding of the Servite Order, the hymn "Stabat Mater" was composed, likely by the Franciscan friar Jacopone da Todi (1230-1306). The most popular English version, often sung in American parishes at Stations of the Cross, begins, "At the Cross her station keeping, stood the mournful Mother weeping, close to Jesus to the last."
The hymn became popular in the Late Middle Ages and Renaissance and eventually became part of the Liturgy of the Hours as well as the Mass, in which it is an optional sequence before the Gospel. Major composers from the Renaissance to modern times have written their own settings.
Jeffrey Tucker, managing editor of Sacred Music, told OSV that "I'm partial to the amazing version by Giovanni Battista Pergolesi (1710-36). It is in many movements and probably not viable as a liturgical piece. But as pure musical expression, it is a revelation."
As the "Stabat Mater" grew in popularity, sacred art also increasingly portrayed Mary's sorrows. The image of the Pietà, in which Mary holds the dead body of her son, became increasingly popular beginning in the 14th century; Michelangelo's famous sculpture dates from 1498-99.
The people of the time were particularly receptive to devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows because "there was great suffering at times among the masses of people, and the plague spared no social class," said Father James Phalan, C.S.C., director of Family Rosary International and Holy Cross Family Ministries.
Father Phalan, who serves as president of the Mariological Society of America, told OSV that "as people contemplated this sorrowful Mother with whom they could identify, they saw that while she lamented she also joined herself to that suffering, and as she said 'yes' at the time of the Annunciation, she said 'yes' to this saving action of Christ and so shared in it."
Mary's sorrows came to be commemorated liturgically on the Friday before Palm Sunday and on Sept. 15, the day after the feast of the Exaltation of the Holy Cross.
The Lenten commemoration was celebrated throughout the Church from 1727 until 1969; the September commemoration has been part of the Church's calendar since 1815.
In the United States, an outpouring of devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows took place in the late 1930s and 1940s. In 1937, Servite Father James Keane began a perpetual Sorrowful Mother Novena at Our Lady of Sorrows Basilica in Chicago. Several sources attest that at the novena's height, 70,000 people came weekly to the basilica's 38 novena services. The novena spread to 2,300 other parishes.
The basilica remains a center of devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows in the United States. Other major shrines include the Sorrowful Mother Shrine in Bellevue, Ohio, which is operated by the Missionaries of the Precious Blood, and the National Sanctuary of Our Sorrowful Mother in Portland, Ore.
The Oregon shrine, operated by the Servites, is also called simply "the Grotto." Father Alvin Cabacang, O.S.M., who has ministered there for a year, told OSV that "everyone is welcome, whether it be for the liturgical celebrations, for a visit, or for other services that the Grotto does offer."
"Catholics just have to look at Mary at her lowest moment and take inspiration from her to have never wavered in her faith in God," he added. "If Catholics are really to deepen their devotion to Our Lady of Sorrows, they just have to make their devotion significant and be reflected in their life. And it is a Christian spirituality worth living for."
J.J. Ziegler writes from North Carolina.

Gary Vitti has seen a lot in his 29 years as the Lakers' athletic trainer. This is his most trying season yet.
He has felt the weight of the team's struggles, the Lakers standing at 32-31 and tied with Utah for the eighth and final playoff spot in the Western Conference despite meteoric expectations.
He also experienced the strain in the trainer's room, Pau Gasol and Steve Nash missing a total of 51 games because of injuries, not to mention major hip surgery for Jordan Hill and Steve Blake's 37-game absence because of abdominal and groin issues.
But Vitti's influence isn't only in sports medicine. He played a vital role in the team's clear-the-air meeting in January in Memphis, caring deeply about the franchise that gave him eight championship rings in 12 trips to the NBA Finals.

The surprisingly strong victory of militant group Hamas in Palestinian legislative elections leaves the Palestinian Authority in the hands of a radical Islamist leadership deemed terrorists by Israel, the U.S. and Europe, further complicating the already tortuous Middle East peace process.The exit polls that predicted Fatah would retain its majority were way off. Hamas now controls 76 of the 132 seats (58%). Fatah was cut down to only 43, although Abbas, a Fatah member, will remain the leader of the Palestinian Authority. Abbas has been outmuscled, unable to deliver on his promise to have Hamas disarm. That task has just been made exponentially more difficult.
Peace between these two disparate cultures has always struck me as a pipe dream. That view certainly meshes with Hamas' view of its Jewish neighbor with whom it will have to 'negotiate':
Other than confirming their refusal to acknowledge Israel's right to exist, they have yet to indicate the approach their government will take in foreign policy.What's the chance that they'll be willing to agree to a dual-state compromise when one side refuses to grant the other one the right to exist? My guess is somewhere between zero and negative infinity. Newsmax shrewdly points out some highlights to Hamas' oath:
The Hamas "Martyr's Oath":We are better served by keeping democracy out of the hands of many countries. There are prerequisites for the political system to function in a way that's beneficial to human progression and security: A largely homogeneic culture and ethnicity, a PPP of at least $3,000 and preferrably over $6,000 (the West Bank and Gaza Strip combined have a depressing $1,100), at least a moderate average IQ (the correlation between democratic government and IQ has been found to be .54), and perhaps most importantly but most difficult to quantify, a culture that encourages debate, compromise, acceptance of defeat, dispute resolution through non-violent means, and nationalism rather than nepotism (none of which characterize Islamic society). The Palestinians fail dismally in all of these categories. Looking at the situation through this prism, it's not surprising that an illiberal terrorist organization has come to power in the Palestinian territory.
"Our struggle against the Jews is very great and very serious...The Movement is but one squadron that should be supported by more and more squadrons from this vast Arab and Islamic world, until the enemy is vanquished and Allah's victory is realized...
"The Prophet, Allah bless him and grant him salvation, has said: 'The Day of Judgment will not come about until Muslims fight the Jews. When the Jew will hide behind stones and trees, the stones and trees will say O Muslims, O Abdulla, there is a Jew behind me, come and kill him...'
"There is no solution for the Palestinian question except through Jihad. Initiatives, proposals and international conferences are all a waste of time and vain endeavors.
"The day The Palestinian Liberation Organization adopts Islam as its way of life, we will become its soldiers, and fuel for its fire that will burn the enemies...
"The Zionist invasion is a vicious invasion... It relies greatly in its infiltration and espionage operations on the secret organizations it gave rise to, such as the Freemasons, The Rotary and Lions clubs, and other sabotage groups.
"We should not forget to remind every Muslim that when the Jews conquered the Holy City in 1967, they stood on the threshold of the Al-Aqsa Mosque and proclaimed that 'Mohammed is dead, and his descendants are all women.'
"Israel, Judaism and Jews challenge Islam and the Muslim people. 'May the cowards never sleep.'"
Thankfully the doctrine of spreading liberty, the azoth to all the world's woes, has not so inebriated the neocons that they celebrate this latest democratic triumph:
British Foreign Secretary Jack Straw said of the victory: "Hamas has a clear responsibility to understand that with democracy goes a rejection of violence."...The neocons are contradicting their belief that liberalism naturally follows the democratic process. Theoretically, the election results should be celebrated because the process worked (the election has been certified as fair by all international observers). But quixotic as the Bush administration may be, they retain enough pragmatism to realize that this successful process is antithetical to a successful outcome. Will it start to sink in that democracy in other areas of the Islamic world threaten the global economy and international security?
The Bush administration has sketched out how Hamas must change to be seen as legitimate: renounce terror, accept Israel's right to exist, endorse an eventual two-state solution, and lay down its arms.
The Muslim Brotherhood controls around a fifth of the seats in Egypt. Prior to the US push for democracy, Mubarak's unpopular secular and pro-American government squelched the popular Islamic group. Now, as political freedoms increase in Egypt, the fiercely anti-Western Brotherhood is surging:
The Muslim Brotherhood was largely banned from Egyptian public life after takingSimilarly Hezbollah is the leading opposition force in Lebanon. And in Iraq, the Shia majority, which has largely refused to compromise with their former antagonists, the minority Sunnis, is theocratic and likely to form amiable ties with hardliners in Iran.
credit for a string of terrorist attacks inside Egypt. It was only allowed back after diplomatic pressure from the U.S., which sends Egypt billions of dollars in foreign aid each year.
The elections there last year were widely seen as corrupt and unfair -- Egyptian security forces arrested opposition candidates and beat their supporters -- but candidates linked to the Muslim Brotherhood nevertheless won a fifth of the seats in parliament.
Many outside observers say the party would almost certainly have won an outright majority in a truly free election.
Hamas might moderate once in power, assuming the EU and US wisely wield the economic stick over the Palestinian territory. The Palestinians are almost completely reliant on foreign aid (GDP is only $1.8 billion, while the territory receives an estimated $2 billion a year in aid) that if cut could lead to a backlash against the new Hamas government and force them to yield to Western demands. But that will only foment popular resentment against the new government (much like it did with Fatah) and lead to another extremist group taking power. It's a vicious circle.
If there is a silver lining here, it is that Israel may be prodded into hastening the construction of its enormously successful security fence, pulling out of undefendable settlements in the West Bank, and closing itself off to the Palestinian Authority with the excuse that it cannot possibly deal with a government that does not even recognize its right to exist:
Acting Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert yesterday convened his top security officials to discuss the results. Late in the day, his office issued a statement saying: "The State of Israel will not negotiate with a Palestinian administration if its members include an armed terrorist organization that calls for the destruction of the State of Israel. In any case, Israel will continue to fight terrorism with a heavy hand, everywhere."Oh, and it might be a seminal moment in America's realization that pro-US, pro-market dictatorships that repress radical elements in ways the West won't stomach are better than popularly elected, anti-Western terrorist organizations. Instead of pouring money down the sewer hole that is the Middle East, we should throw that money into alternative energy resource (and domestic fossil fuel production like drilling in ANWR) and drastically restrict immigration from the Middle East and illegal immigration in general with the construction of fortifications on the borders.
