A wrestler winning a top World Title is similar to what several actors will experience tonight when they win Oscars for their work in the film industry. Winning a top title surely is a matter of utmost respect, with WWE title likely at the forefront of current top Championships. This important belt has proudly been held over the years by legends such as Hulk Hogan, Steve Austin, Edge, The Undertaker and many others, but there are also those very talented and hard-working individuals who have never been blessed with the opportunity to display that belt around their waists, no matter their ability and popularity. Talent and hard work are indispensable prerequisites in pro wrestling, but securing yourself a place in history requires other things as well – the right combination of unique personality and perfect timing, when to appear on the wrestling scene, and a big dash of good luck. So who are some of the most famous wrestlers who have never won a major championship? Read on to find out more about them!
1. Jake "The Snake" Roberts
Jake "The Snake" Roberts, born as Aurelian Smith Jr. and son of former wrestler Aurelian "Grizzly" Smith is best known for two relatively short periods that he spent in the World Wrestling Federation – from 1986 to 1992, and also between 1996 and 1997. He never won a title in WWF, but that didn't stop him from becoming well-known for cutting exceptional promos. He earned his nickname for his habit of bringing snakes into the ring, in particular his pet python Damien, which he would often toss at opponents he managed to defeat. He is remembered for some incredible feuds with Ted DiBiase, Rick Rude and Randy Savage, during which he presented his spectacular abilities.
Roberts had that right kind of personality necessary to become successful in the business and he was certainly blessed by talent and popularity, but the closest he came to the title was after a brush with Hulk Hogan, when he was ultimately cheered by the fans for attacking Hogan. The bookers weren't too fond of the situation, so in an effort to protect Hogan, they separated the two of them on TV for an indefinite period of time. The general feeling was that this stopped the career of a person who could have grabbed hold of Hogan's top star status, and if things had been different, Jake "The Snake" would have probably become an extraordinary WWF Champion. Roberts entered the WWE Hall of Fame in 2014.
2. Ted DiBiase
Ted DiBiase, born as Theodore Marvin DiBiase, Sr. is a retired professional wrestler who was very successful in many wrestling promotions, earning thirty titles in his professional career. He is considered to be one of the best heels to enter the wrestling ring, and it is very unfortunate that he never secured himself a legitimate win of the WWF/WWE World Heavyweight Championship. He technically held the WWF Championship for just a couple of days when Andre gave him the belt after cheating Hogan out in the middle of a referee scandal, but this short-term domination was never rightfully acknowledged. True wrestling fans still remember his astonishing feuds with Hulk Hogan, Jake Roberts and Dusty Rhodes. He patiently challenged Hogan for the belt on numerous occasions over many long years, but he never managed to win it. However, he did win the 'Million dollar Championship' in '89 which is said to be one of the most expensive belts in wrestling history as it took $125,000 to construct, but it was never recognized in the same vain as the top World Titles. DiBiase entered the WWE Hall of Fame in 2010.
3. Owen Hart
Owen James Hart was a Canadian-American professional and amateur wrestler also known by his ring name, The Blue Blazer. He took part in some exceptional promotions which included New Japan Pro Wrestling (NJPW), Stampede Wrestling, World Championship Wrestling (WCW) and the World Wrestling Federation (WWF). His career was cut short by tragedy in 1999 due to an equipment malfunction in Kansas City at the WWF's Over the Edge pay-per-view event, but even if this tragic event hadn't happened, perhaps he would have held the WWF Championship. Like DiBiase, Hart supposedly won the World Championship one time, but the title couldn't be considered legitimate. In his early career he had some excellent feuds with his brother Bret – they were both members of their dad's Hart dungeon and very talented wrestlers, but some think that Owen was better than Bret and that he unjustifiably spent a part of his career in the shadow of his brother. Owen Hart seemed destined to remain somewhere in the mid-level of the wrestling scene, without rising above the International Championship's grounds, but we'll never know what could have happened if things had been different. He was a two-time WWF Intercontinental Champion, a four-time WWF World Tag Team Champion, as well as the 1994 WWF King of the Ring, and he left both WWE and the world having won these prizes and many others – all except the biggest and the most desired one.
4. Rick Rude
Richard Erwin "Rick" Rood, well-known in the wrestling world by his ring name "Ravishing" Rick Rude, was an American professional wrestler. He worked in several promotions, among others World Championship Wrestling (WCW), World Wrestling Federation (WWF) and Extreme Championship Wrestling (ECW) and like DiBiase, he was one of the best performers in WWF/WWE in the late 80s and early 90s. His promo ability was solid, and he certainly knew well how to stir the audience with his famous "cut the music" line. It is hard to forget his memorable feuds with Ricky Steamboat, Roddy Piper and Jake Roberts during which his talents shined brightly, but he never captured the World Title. He did win a WCW International World Heavyweight Championship which was a bigger deal in WCW, because names like Ric Flair and Sting were connected to it, but it is not considered a 'major' title. It lasted for only a year when it was retired after a merger with the prestigious WCW World Heavyweight Championship, which put an end to Rude's claims to be accepted as the legitimate champion. Rude passed away in 1999.
5. "Rowdy" Roddy Piper
"Rowdy" Roddy Piper, was a Canadian professional wrestler and actor, born in 1954 as Roderick George "Roddy" Toombs. He's one of the legendary names in the world of wrestling and just like Jake Roberts, he cut some absolutely astonishing promos. Along with Hulk Hogan, he was a central figure in pro wrestling of the 80s and 90s and is definitely responsible for making wrestling more widespread, but sadly enough he never became a WWF/WWE World Heavyweight Champion. Roddy Piper was one of the first performers to challenge the iconic movement known as Hulkamania, but Hogan's power proved to be too strong for him every time he tried to defy him.
Piper was named one of the best talkers in the wrestling sport, as well as one the most important building blocks of the original Wrestlemania, but the timing of his appearance on the wrestling stage, alongside Hulk Hogan, was both a blessing and a curse for Hot Rod, as he simply couldn't have become a World Champion while Hulk Hogan was around. Piper was inducted into the WWE Hall of Fame in 2005, and died in 2015 in his sleep at the age of 61 in his home in Hollywood, California.
This short review covered several often mentioned and well-known wrestlers who have never won a major championship – feel free to name others as well and tell us why they deserved a top title!

After The Applause: The Danger Of Convenient Consciousness
I don't watch BET.
Armed with a real concern about the programming of the network (and, in particular, how that programming promotes a marginalized perspective of my people), I presently find myself in a boycott of the longstanding television outlet. I realize my lone television not being dialed in to their frequency will not miraculously prompt them to change what they show, but I personally struggle with feeling like I am supporting the stereotypes that are perpetuated of our people (especially our women). Word around the campfire is that they are trying to do better, but even if that were the case, I wouldn't know it because…I don't watch BET.
Despite my non-existent viewership, my very real connection to social media allows me to be kept abreast as to what goes on as different shows and events are put on the air. So while I do not watch BET, my Twitter feed & Facebook timeline allow me to have blow by blow details of awards shows, premieres, and the like.
This past Sunday, while on Facebook, a "friend" posted a video that had made its way to my newsfeed (I'm sure you haven't heard it or seen it). The video was of actor and activist Jesse Williams giving his acceptance speech after being awarded the Humanitarian Award at the 2016 BET Awards. Williams' speech was a beautifully worded disquisition raising awareness to the realities of the African American struggle. His words were not only a clarion call for consciousness and activism from persons of color, but it was also a call to accountability for how we manage ourselves in the name of liberation.
From an apology to how we treat our women (and a promise on behalf of our brothers to do better) to warning abusive law enforcement to change their behaviors to expressing the need for urgency in our efforts to obtain justice to emploring Africans Americans to better control their dollars, the speech was both poignant and powerful.
As he concluded his speech, Jesse Williams' words were met with a standing ovation. Celebrities, dignitaries, and persons of influence throughout the auditorium showed their support for his statement by raising to their feet and applauding. History teaches us that Williams joins a long list of entertainers who have used their fame and influence as a platform to speak to social issues regarding African Americans. It was an extremely compelling moment to witness.
I watched this video and was overtaken by two distinct emotions. On one end, I was extremely proud; overjoyed by the vision of unity among our people. The other feeling that took hold of me was an overriding feeling of concern. As I watched our people applaud the call to cognizance, given on this stage for the nation and world to see, I found myself wondering what would happen after this moment. By my thinking, milestones occur when moments are married to memories. Mountaintops are attained when motivation is translated in movement. As I watched this, I began to question whether or not we have we allowed the comforts of our culture to confuse us as to what the difference between milestones and mountaintops is?
Have the ideas of fighting for freedom, sacrificing in solidarity, and protesting for progress been relegated to notions that simply sound good? Concepts that we celebrate because our celebration makes us feel better about the work we are unwilling to do.
To affirm Jesse Williams' remarks with applause is not a bad thing. In fact, it is the right thing (dare I say, the 'Godly' thing) to do. But I wonder what happens after the applause? It has been 48 hours since the ceremony, and the wheels on the commercial machine (wheels that often crush the consciousness of our people) are still rolling. The applause means nothing if the same rappers who clap make the same minstrel music that maligns us. The praise is purposeless if the actors who offer it still play characters that calumniate our culture. Our laudation is lessened if we offer it only to go back to business as usual after the occasion has passed. This convenient consciousness is dangerous as it is crippling to any breakthrough and betterment our people aspire toward. Convenient consciousness tells one that it perfectly acceptable to know what needs to be done but equally acceptable (even commendable) to fail in doing it.
The issues we face are real & the solutions to them are far from easy. The place we profess to desire for our community cannot be reached solely by our plans or our plauditing; they also require our participation.
Those who would look to oppress us, those who benefit from our inactivity, are banking on it. And while need to celebrate and support this who demonstrate the incredible courage to live past their own comforts to speak truth, we must not only affirm their truth with applause, but also be willing to act after the applause.

I do not watch BET for the same reasons. #boycottBET
Yes! This was a great recap and perspective. We are great at getting hyped up but what are we doing after the hype dies down?
Agreed! Kudos to you for such a well written piece encouraging all of us of the danger of a convenient consciousness. May our collective awakend experience be a catalyst for our continued actions towards facing the "real" issues and creating the "far from easy" solutions that are so desperately needed.
You have to be a big person when you have a person in your life that's white and still can address the situation of black situations from centuries ago of oppression, you're well aware! The opposers, however, who deliberately and consciously deprive people of color equality for control of a nation for them to control by reining a culture and history and life by deaths and mistrust and a life of agony, to say the least, and carry on as things are normal up to this point in life. Conditions for blacks are at an intimidating matters of weaponry, tricks, control, cons, threats, lies, rapes, the same today, but in a different matter! It'sat a level of from the fields to the kitchens as a survivor to accommodate oppressors while others live and enjoy their lives! Most Blacks life situation's when it comes to track records for REAL life skills for employment, normal life is purposely doom, stagnated and cannot accomplish nothing that matters . Just saying! A free society with the help from REPARATIONS would bring Blacks close to a real lifestyle of belonging in a meaningful and happy and loving matter free of crime and violence!!!
It wasn't a "moment" for this brother and his intent was to spark the fire that would restart a true and meaningful movement among his peers and Black America at large.
In the aftermath , i still see armchair revolutionaries, nochair revolutionaries questioning Jesse William's blackness. It makes me angry that the majority of oppressed, have yet to recognize the the wolf is literally "at the door".
maybe it is too late to be "awoken".
I couldn't agree more. When you're done clapping, then what? I hope we don't sit down and Wait for someone else to do something. https://www.gofundme.com/27dt2xw

This past Saturday, August 14th 2010, it was warm and clear in northern Utah. Groups of people gathered at many outside venues to soak in the warmth and fellowship. I was outside almost all day, and I can show you exactly the areas of my exposed flesh I missed with my SPF50 sunblock. Families took advantage of one of the last weekends before school starts for reunions. Pools were filled with excited screaming youngsters. Parents and grandparents languidly watched them and wondered what cosmological dark mater replaces the energy of youth.
There is a beauty in uncomplicated frolicking that is made more precious in the very young. Before language and vocabulary make their mess of communicating the nature of fun, there exists the briefest moment when only the act of play can accurately express itself. While the toddler morphs into a kid each misstep and wobble craft metaphors of a lifetime. A simple fall can be the perfect image of something as profound as a first broken heart, and yet the tears dry so very quickly and kind words assemble smiles from nothing but trust.
Do I sound sappy? I feel sappy writing this.
I love the look of smiles on very small children. There should be more smiles on kids, and fewer looks of horror and loss. Kids have no idea where they are going; they have no reason to feel lost.
At a World Mark Resort near Bear Lake in northern Utah this Saturday a large extended family gathered to relax beside the pool. Numbering over a dozen, eight of them gregarious adults, they were a considerable group. I knew a couple of the older generation of the adults.
At some point in time a 20 month old child of the party exited the "baby" pool, walked over to the "adult" pool, jumped or fell in, and quietly drowned.
What sense is there when smiles are turned to limp meat? How can metaphors of a fabulous future become memories so quickly?
How many times will the drama of a failed rescue be replayed; each event analyzed stepwise out from reality into a horrible repeating dream? I was told that my friend jumped in and retrieved the body of his grandchild. I was told he performed CPR. CPR on a small child breaks bones. Did he feel like he was breaking her or trying desperately to reclaim her life? I will never ask.
There are so many questions that float to the surface of consciousness when talking about an event as pathetic as this. The simple question "why" breaks down into shards whose edges cut hurtfully deep. Many of the questions we can only ask ourselves in silence.
There are the support questions (e.g. What can I do for you?, Do you need anything?, Will you call me if you want to talk?) that should be asked out loud, and often. It is in the spirit of support that the ideals of atheism break down for me.
Rational approaches might work for a rational world. A world where 20-month-old girls drown is bleached free of everything rational. Gravity, electromagnetic radiation, air, and viscosity are notional at best. Can a person stand on non-existent physical principals against an emotional tsunami that has washed away value itself? No.
What do I do when asked to contribute to the magic seen by those in pain as needed for coping? If I am asked to pray for the family or the dead child's soul what will I say? If a grieving parent takes me by the hand and asks me to describe "the place" that their child's soul has gone to will I reply: "I don't believe in that nonsense"? No.
I will put my hands on their shoulders and say: "I will pray if you want me to". I will hold their hands and make up stories about a heaven where it is always Christmas, and love glows on every surface like crude soft focus. I will look into their eyes and say, with the conviction of consuming honesty, that I want them to hurt less.

But unbeknownst to Laura, Hobbs plans go even farther than he's let on, and together they set in motion a thrilling heist of dizzying proportions, the likes of which London has never seen.

Premier to Plug, Abandon Well on Oates Prospect
Premier announced that the 22/19c-6 well on the Oates prospect has reached target depth of 10,323 feet MD BRT. The well encountered the Forties objective as planned but logging has indicated that no hydrocarbons were encountered so the well will be plugged and abandoned as a dry hole. A full post-drill analysis will be undertaken to assess remaining potential on the block including the Bowers prospect. Premier holds a 50% operated interest in the 22/19c license.
Premier's UK exploration program continues with forthcoming wells on Block 15/26b (West Rochelle) and Block 28/9 (Catcher).
West Rochelle
Premier has entered into a farm-in agreement with Endeavour International Corporation, 100% equity holder of Block 15/26c, whereby Premier will earn 25% equity in the block by carrying 50% of the costs associated with Block 15/26c's equity in well 15/26b-1. The well will spud later this month and will test the West Rochelle prospect which is interpreted to span the boundary between Block 15/26b, in which Premier already holds 50% equity, and Block 15/26c.
A target date of October 1, has been set for the commencement of the next phase of the program in the greater Catcher area. Good progress has been made in identifying a rig for the program which will include two firm wells and two options.
Simon Lockett, Chief Executive, commented, "The Oates news is disappointing but we continue to believe that the application of regional geology integrated with seismic attribute work will realize further potential in the UK Central North Sea. We look forward to our forthcoming wells on West Rochelle and in the Catcher area."

Relation between 25-hydroxyvitamin D3, apolipoprotein A-I, and high density lipoprotein cholesterol
In a survey of cardiovascular risk factors in 185 men and 173 women of a Belgian population group, an independent and highly significant positive correlation was found between the serum concentrations of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 and apolipoprotein A-I (p less than 0.001 in both sexes). 25-Hydroxyvitamin D3 also showed a positive correlation with high density lipoprotein cholesterol levels (p less than 0.05 in men and p less than 0.005 in women). This relation was independent of a possible effect of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 on serum calcium. Taking the biological variation of 25-hydroxyvitamin D3 levels (+/- 2 SD = 25 ng/ml) into account, these findings could explain variations in the levels of apolipoprotein A-I of 15 mg/100 ml and of high density lipoprotein cholesterol of 4 mg/100 ml.

References Engaging physicians to improve quality of care and patient safety is fundamental to improve health care. Financial incentives have been successful in engaging and modifying physician behavior both positively by pushing forward improvements, and negatively by fueling individual gains from the current, volume-based payment structure.1 Even with enhanced awareness, an explosion of regulatory mandates, and the emergence of better scholarship and new evidence, however, we have made minimal gains over the last decade to improve quality and safety in our hospitals.2 A new approach is necessary, one that challenges the current structures and equips physicians and physicians-in-training to lead improvement efforts. Physicians are relatively disengaged from health care delivery reform. In recognition, Accreditation Council for Graduate Medical Education requirements mandate systematic analysis of practice using quality improvement methods and require trainees to identify errors and implement solutions. These and other related skills are essential to develop competence in practice-based learning and improvement and in systems-based practice. In a generation, these newly skilled physicians will be prepared to lead the necessary changes to improve our care delivery; however, a generation is too long to wait. To further engage physicians and physicians-in-training in quality and safety improvement, we have developed a program that uses financial incentives to engage residents and fellows to advance the quality improvement mission and goals of our organization. University of California, San Francisco, Medical Center is a 600-bed academic medical center which serves as the primary training hospital for 1,200 University of California, San Francisco residents and fellows. Through collaboration between medical center leadership and school of medicine GME leadership, yearly resident and fellow improvement goals are identified with a resulting potential financial incentive of up to $1,200 per trainee. During four years of this program, the medical center has achieved it highest rankings in patient satisfaction, improved compliance on regulatory mandates, decreased the use of unnecessary laboratory tests, and increased hand washing and provider vaccination rates. The program also invites residents and fellows, in collaboration with quality and safety leaders and educational leaders, to propose quality and safety improvement projects that are specific to their clinical departments as a part of the financial incentive. Through this arm of the program, trainee-led initiatives have improved efficiency (such as patient wait times, on-time operating room starts, and reduction of unnecessary laboratory tests), documentation and communication (making contact with primary care physicians, improved handoff processes, accuracy of ICD-9 delineation, and critical result communication), patient care (appropriate vaccinations, timely use of antibiotics, and high-quality asthma treatment), and patient experience (satisfaction with resident care). A modest investment by the medical center, approximately $700,000/year, has resulted in a profound positive return. For many of the initiatives there is a tangible cost saving or cost avoidance which more than covers the costs of the program. The true benefit, though, lies in the engagement of the trainees. From the medical center perspective, there is now a cohort of trainees who have skills and are engaged in the quality and safety mission of the hospital. They can be called on to lead their peers and superiors into engagement. From the training program perspective, these residents are achieving true competence in system-based practice and practice-based learning and improvement. Personal learning from the trainees leading these efforts reveals two broad themes: Quality improvement work is messy and hard, and small changes can lead to major impact. By integrating the residents and fellows into the real work of quality and safety improvement, along with a scaffolding of support and incentives, we harness their existing skills and experience, leverage the apprenticeship type of learning that is the foundation of our clinical training, and provide an experience that reflects future practice. This program advances our understanding between medical education and improved health in three important ways: (1) by demonstrating the importance of crossing the aisles from hospital to school and education to administration to find common goals, (2) by demonstrating the potential of trainees to be "part of the solution" as opposed to being "part of the problem" of health care delivery, and (3) by harnessing existing physician-in-training experience, skills, and expertise. With this sort of collaboration, we don't need to wait for the next generation of doctors; rather, this collaboration, which engages administrators, faculty, and trainees, might be a necessary disruption bringing us further on the road to better healthcare.3 Back to Top | Article Outline References1Greene SE, Nash DB.

Political talk shows, like Bill Maher's, rely on cheers from the audience to boost the host's views.
Applause directs viewers what to think. No one wants scorn for being out of line with what Bill Maher thinks.
Groups of doctors are no different. We think that we are thoughtful and deliberate, but applause changes doctors' opinions, just like everyone else.
Influence Council
Almost 300 doctors will take a biannual pilgrimage to a giant basement in Toronto for the Ontario Medical Association Council meeting this weekend. Council delegates will consume tables of carbs and coffee listening to the OMA Board Report and other issues.
Delegates must sift hours of noise for buried scandals. Big issues can slip by in seconds. When delegates find something, they need to speak up. They need to convince the basement mob to think differently. They need to move council.
A delegate must be ready. S/he should care less about whether the person on the stage changes her mind. Effective delegates win the crowd. They change opinion.
After 15 years at council, here are a few suggestions for delegates.
Make friends
This sounds trite, but politics pivots on relationships.
Make as many connections as possible. Form alliances. Those friends will support you at the microphone.
People will not support your ideas if they do not know whether you are normal. They must know you are trustworthy.
Have fun
Having fun is dead-serious, excruciating hard work.
You must have fun.
Curmudgeons do not influence anyone. They get ignored.
Crowds pay more attention to personable people, who seem to be enjoying themselves and everyone around them, than a grumbler who frowns about his fee codes.
Be brutal
Make your point in a few seconds.
Most talk is wasted filler. When you get past the necessary social filler in your comments, you must make your point brutal, clear, honest and unavoidable.
This applies equally to chitchat over salad and comments at the microphone. Go in for the kill with grace and a smile.
Plan your counter-attack
When you make a point, especially at the microphone, anticipate how people will wiggle to avoid your argument. Do not leave an escape. Again, be brutal.
Force people to answer your question or address your point, when a crowd is listening. This is a war of ideas; you must prepare for it.
Be gracious and polite
Speakers at the podium will treat you with frustration and sometimes disdain. They may try to win the crowd with dismissive humour.
You will get cut off and have your time cut short.
Never have a temper tantrum. Crowds hate speakers who make them feel uncomfortable for the wrong reasons.
Return favours
You need solid applause after asking for change. Return the favour when one of your new friends stands at the microphone.
Applause wins arguments more than logic. But don't overdo it.
Do Not
Speak too long
Choose your words carefully. Almost everyone should write out what they plan to say.
Never – never, ever, ever – speak to the end of your time.
If the Chair asks you to sum up, you might as well sit down: You lost the crowd.
Once every few years, council members will rally and attack the Chair for cutting someone off. Do not expect that your idea will rouse the crowd to fight for you.
Attack the Chair
The Chair and Vice-Chair never forget being attacked and publicly shamed. If you try, you will become That Doctor.
Little coincidences will limit the next time you speak: Your timer will start before you open your mouth, you will get interrupted, and panel participants will dismiss you.
Do not become That Doctor.
Talk about yourself
You may have the most heart moving story about personal suffering, but do not tell it.
If your story must be told, convince someone else to tell it for you. Most people do not want to make policy based on one moving story.
Hold a narrow self interest
People do not like little issues that apply to a few doctors.
Some groups try to raise esoteric fee code squabbles from the floor of council. They never win.
I hope other veterans to council will share more advice in the comment section.
In a perfect world, logic, facts and reasoned debate should guide large groups, such as OMA council. But just like any crowd, council moves for other, more human reasons.
Council ignores issues at the end of the day that would have sparked hours of debate at 0900.
Council cuts off discussion and calls the question, when lunch is getting cold.
Legal minutiae delivered by fastidious experts can anesthetize delegates and guarantee little or no debate.
Medicine is in crisis in Ontario. Doctors do not trust the government or the OMA. Problems pile up, when government and doctors fight.
We need a smart, sophisticated association. We need a modern OMA. Council can shape the Ontario Medical Association. Council delegates need to use every political tool, including applause, to make the OMA choose the best course.

Collaborative Storytelling
Wanting to explore our theme's potential influence on public health, USC Ph.D. student Jason Craig invited a group of artists, musicians, actors, activists, and community members to a series of weekend workshops. Laying bare their own experiences, the members of the workshop began exploring the possibilities that collective sharing presents to the health of a community.
The stories and relationships that emerged from those interactions formed the basis for a collaborative exhibition, a cooperative inquiry into self-care, both individual and communal. The resulting Waterlines Screening & Performance is an experimental, transmedia exhibition featuring storytelling, music, dance, song, poetry, film and more that presents viewers with a microcosm of the Waterlines experience.

An Akwa Ibom's 13-year old pregnant girl called Ekemini who was rescued by Anja Ringgren Loven, a Danish Aid Worker will undergo a caesarean section operation owing to doctos's unfavourable discovery about the condition of her baby in the uterus. The doctors discovered that her baby's position in the uterus is abnormal. In addition, her pelvis is not completely developed because of her young age.
Anja whom through the collaboration of her husband, David Emmanuel Umem as well as their team rescued Ekemini said that the little will undergo Caesarean section because she will not be able to deliver safely through the vagina. According to her, the Caesarean section is preferably a better option in order to avoid prolongs labour and complications which may set in while trying to deliver vaginally.
After rescue, Ekemini was brought to DINNødhjælp/ACAEDF Childrens' Home in Nigeria. Meanwhile, the little boy (pictured with Ekemini) also will undergo an operation. He has hypospadias, an inborn medical condition whereby one has an incomplete developed urethra. According to doctors' reports, urethral meatus opens incorrectly at different locations along the underside of the scrotum, penis or the perineum
Owing to the exorbitant cost of Ekemini and Hope's operations, financial assistance to enable to the two be in good state of health. You can please make a donation to DINNødhjælp via their website, http://www.dinnoedhjaelp.dk/stot-os/

Like any great feature story,a successful career in journalism takes careful planning and commitment,especially in the beginning stages. The Scripps Howard Foundation Wire is my own special way of ensuring that when I get hired for my first job as a professional (wink,wink) I will have not only a valuable experience under my belt,but hopefully also a keener reporter's eye and a more refined sense of writing.
Having just graduated early from the University of Tennessee with a degree in journalism and currently living and working in Washington D.C.,everything is fresh and new to me. I see a story at every corner.
My favorite elements of writing are features,so when I see the truth,beauty and pain that envelop the city and her people,an overwhelming desire to tell their stories washes over me. These are stories that put an individual human face to trials and celebrations that affect us all.
I am currently looking for a position in the magazine publishing industry in New York City. Having written and tailored stories for markets ranging from small (LaFollette and Maryville,TN),medium (Knoxville,TN) and now large,I believe I am qualified to serve the average reader,the "every" man and the "every" woman. Writing interests include politics,lifestyles,current events and all of the arts.

Hi Kat, sorry you're having a hard time. I took Savella too, it was great for pain but I got really testy, to say the least, on it. My evil twin took over bigtime.
Could be you don't need an anti-depressant and though it's good for the fibro pain, if you're not clinically depressed it could be affecting you adversely both emotionally/mentally. I don't think you mentioned what your dose is but some docs start off way higher than others, and tapering upto the dose is very important. These are just some things for you to consider with your doctor.
Thank you very much unfortunately I am depressed and have. Been on gavapentin and Lyrica both no help but strictly on 100 mg a day of savella I am seeing a rheumatologist for that drug :) but am dying nevermind the lack of sleep ! Thank you!!
I've had severe leg pain from fibro since I was a child. The one thing I have to say is, you need to get up and moving. Staying in any position too long makes them worse. Plus you lay in bed and think about how rotten you feel, instead of getting involved in life. Don't let it get you, you've got to get a grip on it. I'm sure the doctor could prescribe some things for you that would help too, is he a rheumatologist? If not you should find one, they are the specialists who take care of fibro. You probably can't deal with the Savella so maybe cymbalta. Lyrica or gabapentin helps. Something for pain would be nice too.
I will try to get moving its. Very hard as u know but I'm willing to try any thing thank you and well wishes to u all
I totally agree with kaismama answer on this. I have had fibro all my life, but never took anything for it. I was on Lyrica for a while, but had bad side effects from it too. Swelling & high blood pressure. Savella is also one that can cause high blood pressure. If you lay in bed, & don't keep moving & exercising, you are going to feel than better. Moving, & stretching exercises are the clue here. Go to the library or better yet walk to the library & get a DVD & book on yoga exercises. Simple, but very effective. I know it hurts, but the more you let your muscles go lax the worse it will get. Just my thoughts... Mary
Thank you so much
I have been on Savella for 4 months now. I do have mood swings with this medication. I have also found that the first 2 months this drug did help quite a bit, my Hydrocodone intake did go down. Now it seems to be helping very little. My doctor said he has heard this from a lot of his Fibro patients taking Savella. I take 50mg 2x a day. Currently I am continuing with the Savella in the hopes that it will start to make the difference it once did. Savella is also expensive. I pay $130 a month for mine. I am now taking the Savella and morphine sulfate ER 30mg 3x a day and hydrocodone 10/325 up to 4 times a day for break through pain. The morphine I have only been on for a few weeks and has made a huge difference. I still have some bad days but for the most part my pain is tolerable. I can function.

Did you know that morning traffic in Charleston starts way before 6:30 am and the sun doesn't come up until 7:20 am. That left me with a choice of getting up at 5 and riding in the dark or sucking up traffic a little bit before sunrise. I chose to suck up traffic at 6:30. However, it was so foggy that even though the city lights were enough to light my way, I was really concerned about other people seeing little ol' me riding a bike with a little tail light.
So after 2 or so miles of stop and go traffic, I said screw this and found a place where I could sit out the fog. It was a long and boring hour and a half waiting, when all I could think about was that plush king sized bed I could have been still sleeping in. I am not a morning person at all, so this was not a good way to start out my day. As soon as the fog lifted I hopped on the bike and made some headway down hwy 17. I still took it rather slowly and felt like I was riding on a tightrope for most of the morning. All I could think about was riding between the rumbling strip and where the road drops off, missing the debris, and food. I was starving! I made it to hwy 17 and hwy 64 happier than a hot hog in a cool puddle of mud to see a gas station that had Church's Chicken in it. I ordered and sat in there for a bit feasting on the little drumsticks and resting my swollen legs that had begun to breakout in hives. My legs had been feeling good all week, and only broke out twice during the last 7 days. I don't know what it is about the bike shorts that I am allergic to, but today it was really bothering me. Usually it is just around the elastic band at the end of the shorts that I break out, but this time it was creeping down my thighs. And why was I getting Cankles???
My husband had texted me that he had a change of plans and had to work in Greenville Tuesday and couldn't pick me up and nether could Kaitie because of her school. So I was left to either finish today, go as far as I could today and end the trip, or finish up tomorrow hopefully before the bad weather set in and then rent a car and drive home. I wasn't sure I could make it all the way today because I was fighting a sore throat and earache on top of dealing with swollen legs that felt like I had added 20 lbs to my bike. I was also dreading getting back on my bike because of the road, but I knew this newly paved road with wider shoulders that Scott Bingham had told me about had to be coming up soon. And it did. Right after the gas station it opened up into smooth sailing for most of the way to hwy 21. I don't know how or when I made it to the turn off to Beaufort, but I did. I think I zoned out for 20 plus miles. Scary. Once I was at the turn off I really wanted to go rest a bit at Old Sheldon Church ruins which was 2 miles away. But at this point I was thinking of shaving off every extra mile there was and just getting to the end. I continued on and decided that I would stay the night in Beaufort and rent a car Tuesday after I completed my ride. My legs were itching like crazy now with the hives going down my upper thighs and now to my lower legs, and I was so mentally exhausted from the constant traffic I just wanted to complete my 7 miles to the hotel and kick my cankles up to let the swelling go down a bit. About 5 miles before the hotel Scott texted me saying he would be in Hilton Head at 7 to pick me up. He had been tracking me on the handy-dandy RidewithGPS app and knew I would be there about the same time if I kept going. So instead of turning left to go to the hotel, I turned right to go to Hilton Head. Last thing I really wanted to do was end this trip with no one there for me at the end, especially when I didn't feel so hot. I was happy knowing he would be close even if I didn't finish the whole way today. So this was good. I stopped to replenish my drinks because I had run out and was wilting away even though I had retained plenty of water in my legs. I pressed forward and tried my best to fight the headwinds and the crazy traffic that was building up again. My wide shoulder narrowed to nada and all I could think about was the pain in my derriere, the welts on my legs, and the numbness of my fingers. I just wanted it to end. It made me rather cranky and I cussed out many drivers, and gave the bird when I could lift my hand. Sorry mom, I know you raised me better, but sometimes there is just no other words to express myself.
The road to Hilton Head was under construction and said there was a detour, so learning from my previous mistake, I took the detour instead of traveling on hwy 278. The first 2 miles of the detour road was under construction too, which made me pedal like a crazy women as fast as I could just to get off that road. When I got to Bluffton Parkway I almost broke out in a dance of joy because it had its own paved bike and pedestrian path! Woohoo! It was truly a godsend. It was the best 10 miles of the day. I had such high hopes that if Bluffton had smooth roads and a pathway for bikes then maybe going over the bridge into ritzy Hilton Head would be the same. I was oh so so so wrong! Again no shoulder on hwy 278 and the bridge… It's shoulder was so full of debris that I thought I was going to wreck right there and not even make it the last mile. CLEAN UP YOUR SHOULDERS HILTON HEAD for crying out loud!!!
I was thankful that I made it over the bridge and stopped to take my Hilton Head Island sign picture. Then it was on to complete 100 miles for the day and meet Scott for my pick up and then dinner at Salty Dog Cafe'… at least that was the plan. It was nearing sunset, traffic was bad leaving me with little room to ride. I road between the rumbling strip and edge of the road. There was a rather large stick that hogged the whole width of the shoulder and out into the road. I had to ride over it or be hit by the car behind me because there was no room to go around the stick into his lane of traffic. I guess I hit the stick at such an angle that it flipped up and threaded itself into my back wheel spokes and through my frame causing me to come to a dead stop which flipped me over into the grass. All I can say is I am so thankful that it flipped me toward the grass and not the cars. I scooted myself and bike off of the shoulder and into the safety zone (we were still attached together because of my shoes didn't unclip when I fell) and unclipped myself and tried to figure out how to get the damn stick out of my frame and wheel. Not really how I envisioned ending this long ride at all, but I am glad I didn't get badly hurt and I am glad I actually got to finish the trip. I'm super thankful Scott was within 10 minutes of picking me up too. At this point all I just wanted to do was go home and rest my banged up body and swollen legs that had welts of hives all over them now! I was finished! Done, and I was happy it was over. I am most grateful that I didn't start in Hilton Head going North or it would have been a rather short trip. South Carolina is a hard state to ride through along the Coastal areas. I know my naysayers would tell me they told me so, and to them I would say, yes you are right, but I did accomplish it and it is doable. Therefore, I am proud of myself for fighting through it and completing my trip even ending it with a bang! I did it! Head to Head is complete and I am in one piece, praise God.

Melbourne, March 15 (ANI): Lara Bingle's agent has confirmed that the model's 4.7 carat 200,000-dollar engagement ring is safe.
According to the Daily Telegraph, Max Markson has said that Bingle still has possession of the expensive ring.
Markson said that contrary to reports the ring had been flushed down the toilet that it was actually "safe and sound and with Lara."
He said the plumbers who claimed they had turned up at the Bondi apartment once shared by the couple were simply seeking publicity.
"She has it in safekeeping," News.com.au quoted him as saying.Similarly Clarke's agent Chris White has dismissed rumours that his client called plumbers. (ANI)

I was invited to a birthday party last week. It was one of those 'bring you own booze and we'll take it in turns to select YouTube video' kind of affairs. When it got to my turn I panicked and selected I Can't Dance by Genesis. I felt the gravity shift as I fell through the carpet, through the floorboards, through the Earth's crust, until I found myself in an evening desert with just my poor song echoing towards me from a great distance.
I was glad when my turn was up, and I retreated to the safety of the kitchen where two guys were talking about helicopters. Following the cobbled streets to my flat that night, I tried to calculate the percentage of the music we had listened to that came from this century. I couldn't work out an efficient system for calculating this, but I guffawed and concluded that it would have been a very low percentage.
Maybe it's an age thing. Music means more to you as a teenager. It resonates with those rudimentary emotions like angst, and unrequited love; feelings you're more likely to be tuned into during adolescence. I still enjoy the old songs because they trigger emotions I haven't felt for a long time.
So perhaps my problem with modern music is an inability to relate. I mean- I can't remember the last song I heard that was about the career dilemma a man faces when he has to choose between diversifying his skill set or specializing in a niche area.
I started thinking that the quality of the music could have declined. I honestly hear maybe a handful of good singles each year, and maybe one good album. 1967 saw the release of Revolver (Beatles), Dark Side of the Moon (Pink Floyd) and Are You Experienced? (Jimi Hendrix Experience). The year before saw Exile on Main Street (Rolling Stones) and Bridge Over Troubled Water (Simon & Garfunkel).
Looking at all this incredible music I came to the conclusion that there are just less creative people making music these days as they've been attracted to other areas in which to express themselves.
I think that's what the future holds. We aren't getting any less creative, but the creativity will become so thinly spread that we'll believe artistry is in constant state of decline.

African writers set out on a journey across the continent #AfricanTravelWriting
- African writers are visiting cities across their continent to produce book series
- The Pilgrimages project aims to promote African travel writing by Africans
- Many of the writers have blogged about their experiences
About the Project…
According to CNN, "the Pilgrimages project claims it will produce the biggest-ever collection of African travel writing by African writers. It began during this summer's World Cup in South Africa, and it is hoped the books will be published to coincide with the 2012 Africa Cup of Nations football tournament.
The idea was conceived by Binyavanga Wainaina, a Kenyan author and director of the Chinua Achebe Center for African Writers and Artists at Bard College, New York.
He said: "The idea is to introduce our cities to ourselves, because Africans are always seeing each other through someone else's eyes."
Here are some blog entries from some of the writers/bloggers such as Funmi Iyanda and Uzodinma Iweala…

7 Mistakes To Avoid When Using Instagram
Everyone has their ideas on how to start using Instagram these days. There are plenty of posts and seminars put out by self-proclaimed instagurus claiming to have the magic formula.
While I'm enjoying the fact Instagram is getting more mainstream attention, I'm far too often shaking my head at all the nonsense I see.
With all due respect to these folks, and anyone who disagrees with me, there's something that needs to be said about how people are approaching Instagram. Just because you've had some success in Social Media DOES NOT mean you know what you're doing on IG.
It's an entirely different beast altogether and it's not meant to be managed like the other networks.
First things first, before anyone is ready to attract more followers… AND KEEP THEM… we need to break the bad habits far too many users still practice while thinking they're doing it right.
You can either get mad and continue treading water thinking you're right or you can reevaluate your strategies so your page becomes more appealing to the masses.
To enlighten you by the unwritten rules to using Instagram, here are my 7 mistakes you should NEVER do.
DON'T Post Too Frequently
This isn't Twitter, or Facebook. You don't need to post every 5 minutes to get noticed here. In fact, very few things are as likely to get you unfollowed than posting 3 selfies, 2 pics of your dog, and a pic of your lunch within a short period of time… even if the pictures are decent.
I typically post 2-4 times per day a few hours apart. If you post more often, just space it out AT LEAST an hour between each one; don't piggy back them
DON'T Be Inconsistent With Your Content
I understand it can take time to discover your niche, but find one and stick with it. If you look at most successful instagram pages, they all have a theme. The reason a majority of people don't attract new followers, or continually lose them, is because they post random pictures with no rhyme or reason to it.
When a prospective follower visits your profile for the first time, they'll be more likely to click that button if your individual photos look good together as a whole.
DON'T Follow Too Many People
Remember, Instagram is the cool network and it's just not cool to follow more people than the number of people following you (followers ÷ followings = your "cool ratio") I'm being serious, despite how high-schoolish this sounds, it makes a big difference.
Personally, I attracted noticeably more followers each time I trimmed my followings…from 1900 to 1200 to 900 down to 400.
Point is, I'd recommend following AS FEW Instagrammers as you deem necessary to still enjoy your experience. The higher your cool ratio is, the more popular you'll be perceived to be. Believe it or not, many Instagrammers look at that before they even look at the pics in your feed.
Ideally, when using Instagram a 2:1 ratio might be the ante to play the instagame these days… then set your sights on 3:1
For starters, go to the stats section of iconosquare when you're finished reading this. It'll take a few minutes to generate your metrics. Once complete, go to the community section and click on the little magnifying glass on the right of breakdown to see your "followings who don't follow you back"
This is the easy part, folks, I have 22 right now. If you don't love either them, or their pics, make the cut.
DON'T Build Your Page Using Other People's Content
Instagram is THE MOST rewarding platform for content CREATORS. Yes, there is a place for curation and there are several popular "share" pages suggesting users to follow. What you don't see, though, are the estimated 27.3 bazillion indistinguishable, soon-to-be abandoned, accounts with 3 followers who thought it'd be a good strategy to use a repost app twenty times a day.
Sure, sharing someone's picture on occasion is fine, provided you give proper credit. Otherwise, you're stealing and will surely end up being shunned in the community.
The takeaway is other users want to see what you can capture or create, not what your friends can do.
DON'T Post Crappy Images or Words
Look, I didn't start out as Ansel Adams. Well, I'm still not there yet, but I realized early on that Instagram is about quality, not quantity. If you don't care what people think about how your using Instagram, that's fine, keep posting out-of-focus tilted horizons which make our heads spin.
If you want to get noticed, start taking more pride in your work. Don't be lazy and post sloppy pictures.
Don't point and shoot… think and shoot, instead. Take multiple pictures from different angles and use the best one.
And let's face it, editing your pics makes a difference. So download snapseed, pixlr express, and/or photoshop express and start making your images stand out. But please note you shouldn't over edit them, either. It's a fine line but one you should be walking
Also, in a similar vein, I've seen an increasing number of users who solely (or mostly) post textgrams (quotes or words). It's like the new rage, I guess, but I don't get it. People are on IG to be visually stimulated. They want your story through images, not someone else's retreaded quote on a pink background.
If you have an audience who also likes to read, that's what captions are for!
DON'T Buy Fake Followers
It may work on other networks, but with the level of engagement on Instagram, you'll stick out like a sore thumb. When you have 80,000 followers yet only have double or triple digit likes on your posts, it raises eyebrows and red flags.
Once you're labeled as a cheater, it's difficult to regain respectability.
Don't NOT Use Instagram For Your Business or Brand
Look, I know the ROI is difficult to calculate and the performance measurements are less tangible, but Instagram is THE BEST way to engage with your customers and find new ones. The visual space forms opinions and sets the buying seeds with your mere presence if you do it right.
If you can't do it right, contact l contract the services of someone who can! Many brands should be able to attract 50,000 followers within the first year. It's not hard if you know the right people
Ok, I think that covers most things that will annoy others and detract from you.
I'm sure I missed or didn't include some things that bother you when using Instagram, so feel free to add to the list. Also, if you disagree with any of these, I'd love to hear why and if you're largely successful using these strategies.

'Wild' Life Playgrounds Of Miami
By Jane Cassie
Photos By Brent Cassie
And compliments from Biscayne National Park
It's just before midnight on South Beach and the energized pulse along Ocean Drive is starting to palpitate. This artery that bisects Miami's famed art deco district is the happening place to be, especially after the sun goes and the neon glows. We meld with the masses that flock to the gridlocked thoroughfare where our adrenaline soars with the ongoing Latin beat. Enticing aromas waft from bustling sidewalk cafes offering us anything from Cuban cuisine to Floribbean fare. Backed by confetti coloured treasures and fronting the palm studded beach, this setting is a feast for our senses.
We mosey the interconnected Collins Avenue where a continued invitation for dusk to dawn delights is extended. Sophisticated high rises like The Delano, St Moritz, The National and The Hotel all have a retro flair with a New York feel. Epicureans revel in the many acclaimed culinary options en route, such as The Hotel's Wish Restaurant where executive chef, E. Michael Reidt appeases the most discriminating palate with his French-Brazillian menu.
Although we love having this taste of urban wild life at our fingertips, by staying at The South Beach Hotel a few blocks away, we can easily escape the inevitable crowds. The 1939 art deco treasure, designed by renowned architect, Henry Hohauser, has been recently renovated with a Latin feel. Its sleek lines and contemporary interiors pay homage to the era while the pampering perks like the jetted tub provide us with modern day pleasantries.
During our stay in Miami, our travels also take us to Biscayne National Park where we discover an entire flip side to the meaning of 'wild' life.
The vast emerald Atlantic shimmers before us like a strand of precious gems, and while our vessel plies effortlessly through the water, I remain riveted to its bow rail, permitting the balmy breeze to toss my hair. From the ringside seat, I look forward to a different taste of entertainment. It's not the same type of parade we experienced the night before but one that's performed daily and naturally thanks to the gifts from Mother Nature.
Javier, one of the tour guides, shares his vast knowledge of this wilderness setting. "The park encompasses eighty thousand acres," he explains, "and ninety-five percent is underwater." The remaining five percent, we discover, is made up of the forty-four keys that span eighteen nautical miles.
We troll past a number of the evergreen mounds, enshrouded in a maze of mangroves and tropical hardwood hammocks. Rich with nourishment, these islets are a haven for waterfowl and sea life that swarm to the area. Pelicans that ride the sea breeze look like pterodactyls right out of Jurassic Park and white ibis that wade knee high in mud get their fill of crustaceans. Double-breasted cormorants, blue herons, and snowy egrets are a few other feathered friends that we see.
This glass bottom boat tour also provides us with a taste of the park's underwater world without getting our feet wet and, while hovering over the surface, we can see the swaying sea grass that shimmers at the base of this tropical lagoon. The explosive growth of algae and plankton are gastronomic delights for sponges and sea urchins and, as well as starfish and spiny lobster, it is a popular spot for the gentle blubbery manatees. Weighing up to three thousand pounds, these beloved Floridian natives look more like whiskered whimsical sea cows, and because of their slow-poke maneuverability we are careful while making our way to the outer reefs.
When the wave action cooperates, there is a fanfare of productivity framed in the window of our hull including porous sponges, ancient shipwrecks, and dazzling coral gardens. And for those who like to take a dip, the snorkeling and diving promises an up-close and personal approach of the iridescent inhabitants.
"There are around two hundred and fifty different fish species," Javier reveals, "as well as a number of types of coral." Elkhorn, staghorn and brain coral are most common and parrotfish, tiggerfish, angelfish, blue tang, porkfish, and trunkfish are just a few sea-goers that bejewel the reefs. Although incidences are rare, there are others that pose a threat to humans. Portuguese man-of-war with its long tentacles, the razor-tooth barracuda, and the infamous bull shark are predators that underwater visitors shy away from.
Although there has always been the risk of hurricanes and tropical storms, the keys have hosted a cross section of travelers over the years. "From pirates to presidents," Javier states, "the keys have seen them all." Although legends reveal that the high seas and treacherous reefs have claimed many sailing ships, fortune hunters, bootleggers, gamblers and a number of presidents are still allured by these emerald waters.
Embraced in beauty and boasting so many natural wonders, it's easy to understand why. And as we skim back over the bay we reflect on its tranquility and splendor. The remote setting is like a polar opposite to South Beach's racy allure, yet both in their own right, are wonderful 'wild' life playgrounds of Miami.

at Champions Sports Performance in Cornelius, NC
Functional strength training in the Training for Warriors program (no machines here!) establishes an athletic foundation that enables our students to lose fat quickly and safely. Our coaches are beside you for every rep. Absolutely…strong is the new skinny!
In the Training for Warriors Adult Training program at Champions, we train with high intensity and move fast (sprint!) to burn fat. This is true HIIT (High Intensity Interval Training), but unlike all other HIIT programs, TFW does it correctly. Most boot camps or personal trainers call their workouts HIIT, but are simply picking random exercises, skipping the "Interval" part, and thus eliminating the "intensity" part.
To move fast, you have to get your body ready to move fast. Our intense and detailed warmups are step one in this process, getting you ready and keeping you safe. Step two is strength training, which will increase power production and joint mobility. We use a total body and core engaged system to help our students make serious strength gains. It is not uncommon for our female students to double the number of pushups they can do, or go from zero chin ups to five or more in just a few months. Our guys do the same thing, lifting heavy and setting PR's on a regular basis. When you get stronger, you will look better, getting the lean muscle, tone, and shape you desire.

Comments about TC Electronic RC4 Bass Footswitch:
i bought this foot pedal with the amp and cab that goes along with it. if you decide to buy the amp (which you should) buy this pedal. the mute switch is great for switching instruments and taking breaks. and the 3 switch option is perfect for playing different styles. and the tuner is the thing i really love about it. its perfect for maintaining accuracy with a fretless and is good for harmonics quick tuning changes and even to double check you are playing in key. all and all this is a great product and you should go with the tc electronics bass package.

Comments about TC Electronic RC4 Bass Footswitch:
I use several different basses, each with their own "personality". Having the ability on the Staccato '51 to have presets is awesome. But having the ability to have the presets at my feet, along with the mute and the tuning display is beyond cool. The switch is very hefty and you can tell the quality the second it comes out of the box. Each switch lights up, so you can tell at a glance which preset your on. The Mute button flashes red to warn you that it's on. A great touch. The only Con I can say is that the first one I got was DOA. But those things happen, and Musician's Friend was very quick to replace it. It's so nice to be able to change presets without walking back to the amp to hit the button. Love it.

What is natural law and its relation to human law and concupiscence? In Treatise on law, questions 91, 94, and 95What are the universal natural laws (general principles)?
- print Print
- list Cite
krcavnar | Student
The essence of natural law is the assertion that there are objective moral principles which are derived from nature which can be discovered from reason. Besides divine law known only to God or given through scripture, Aquinas determined there was natural law or lex naturalis which is obtained through reason and lex humana or human law. Human law is not a copy of natural law but provides solutions to everyday life because natural law does not provide all or even most of the solutions for everyday life. Aquinas also writes that there is need for human law is to force selfish and evil people to act reasonably. Aquinas also stated that human law must be virtuous, necessary, useful, and clear and for the common good.
