text: On our way back from our yearly, national car meet, we figured we were just too close to the Memorial site not to stop and experience it. It was a very moving experience. Quite a bit more than I expected actually. The reflecting pool resides where the street used to be. This was where the truck with the bomb in it was placed. The chairs reside where the building used to be. Each chair has a persons name on it. One for each person killed. Some of the chairs are smaller than others. Those represent the children. The pine trees, at full height will be about 90 feet tall, equivalent to a 9 story building, just like the one destroyed by the blast. Each entrance at either end of the reflecting pool has a time on it. 9:01 and 9:03. The blast occured between these at 9:02 am. It takes about a minute to walk from one end to the other. Each chair has a name engraved in the glass at the bottom. They are situated in rows corresponding to the floors they were on when they were killed. Notice some chairs are smaller than others. Sometimes we forget that there were people involved, and they all had faces and names and families just like the rest of us. These photos and mementos helped provide a rememberance of that. This is part of the original fence that was put in place in the days after the blast. They decided to keep it as part of the memorial. Across the street is "Jesus wept." This is part of the original foundation that was left after the demolition. Above it hangs the survivors list, as this is not only a memorial to the ones who died, but to the ones left scarred for life by being a part of this American nightmare.

There have been at least 50 cases similar to the bathhouse raid in the last 18 months, human-rights groups estimate.
This also was one of the gay places in Pompeii, for it was a bathhouse.
Some of the people bought, and some went laughing by and entered the bathhouse.
The bathhouse is consumed by fire, and the town is all agog with excitement.
The bathhouse was a huge barge with a house built on it in a lozenge shape.
Two schools, a recreation center and a bathhouse had been destroyed, and here was another school fire at night.
From here we wandered back and I found a public playground and bathhouse by the water's edge.

Skip to comments.Parents: Dont Delay Baptism for your Infants!
Posted on 04/27/2012 6:36:28 PM PDT by Salvation
There is a trend that has set up for years now, and that is that Catholics are waiting many months to get their children baptized. I suspect that what we have here is a combination of a much lower infant mortality rate and, also, a less fervent practice of the faith by many. Further, there seems little sense among the faithful today that an unbaptized infant would be excluded from heaven.
As regards the last point, I think it is pastorally sound to trust in Gods mercy for infants who die before baptism. However, I do not think it follows that we ought to disregard or substantially delay a sacrament which Jesus commands, and which the Church indicates ought not to be delayed. The Code of Canon Law says the following:
Parents are obliged to see that their infants are baptised within the first few weeks. As soon as possible after the birth, indeed even before it, they are to approach the parish priest to ask for the sacrament for their child, and to be themselves duly prepared for it. If the infant is in danger of death, it is to be baptised without any delay. Can. 867 §1,§2
The Catechism also states: The Church and parents deny a child the priceless grace of becoming a child of God were they not to confer baptism shortly after birth. (CCC # 1250) So it seems clear that a higher priority should be given to scheduling the baptism of babies within the first few weeks after birth.
Protestant practice departs from the received Tradition Another factor for American Catholics is that many are influenced by the Protestants. Protestants, (though not all of them) disagree with our Catholic practice of baptizing infants. They usually wait until a child is between 8 and 12 to baptize, reasoning that the child will know and understand what is happening and be able to claim Christ for themselves.
But, I hope you see the supreme irony of this in the fact that the Protestants, who so emphasize that salvation does not come from works, delay baptism on the grounds that the infant has not achieved (i.e. worked up to) the proper level of maturity. To know, requires one to learn, which is a work. And we Catholics, who supposedly teach salvation through works (we do not), baptize infants who can work no work.
Novelty Indeed, the Protestant denominations (mostly Baptists (another irony), Pentecostals, Fundamentalist and Evangelicals) who refuse baptism to infants, engage in a novelty unknown to the Church until recent times.
It is a simple historical fact that the Church has always baptized infants. Even our earliest documents speak of the practice. For example the Apostolic Tradition written about 215 A.D. has this to say:
The children shall be baptized first. All of the children who can answer for themselves, let them answer. If there are any children who cannot answer for themselves, let their parents answer for them, or someone else from their family. (Apostolic Tradition # 21)
Scripture too confirms that infants should be baptized if you do the math. For example
People were also bringing babies to Jesus to have him touch them. When the disciples saw this, they rebuked them. But Jesus called the children to him and said, Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God belongs to such as these. (Luke 18:15-17 NIV)
So the Kingdom of God belongs to the little children (in Greek βρέφη (brephe) indicating infants and little children still held in the arms, babes).
And yet elsewhere Jesus also reminds that it is necessary to be baptized in order to enter the Kingdom of God: Jesus answered, I tell you the truth, no one can enter the kingdom of God unless he is born of water and the Spirit. (John 3:5 NIV)
If the Kingdom of God belongs to little children, and we are taught that we cannot inherit it without baptism, then it follows that baptizing infants is necessary, and that to fail to do so, is a hindering of the little children which Jesus forbade his apostles to do. So both Tradition and Scripture affirm the practice of baptizing infants.
Many of the Protestants who do refuse infant baptism also water down (pardon the pun!) the fuller meaning of baptism, no longer seeing it as washing away sins and conferring righteousness per se, but more as a symbol of faith that they claim to have already received when they said the sinners prayer and accepted Christ as their savior. But what a tragic loss for them, since baptism and particularly the baptism of infants, says some very wonderful things about the complete gratuity of salvation and the goodness of God. Consider these points:
1. The baptism of infants is a powerful testimony to the absolute gratuity (gift) of salvation. Infants have achieved nothing, have not worked, have not done anything to merit salvation. The Catechism puts it this way: The sheer gratuitousness of the grace of salvation is particularly manifest in infant baptism. (CCC # 1250) The Church is clear, salvation cannot be earned or merited and infant baptism teaches that most clearly. Salvation is pure gift. How strange and ironic that some of the very denominations which claim that Catholics teach salvation by works (we do not) also refuse, themselves, to baptize infants. They claim that a certain age of maturity is required so that the person understands what they are doing. But this sounds like achievement to me. That the child must meet some requirement, seems like a work, or the attainment of some meritorious status wherein one is now old enough to qualify for baptism and salvation. Qualifications .Achievement (of age) .Requirements .it all sounds like what they accuse us of: namely works and merit. To be clear then, the Catholic understanding of the gratuity of salvation is far more radical than many non-Catholics understand. We baptize infants who are not capable of meriting, attaining or earning.
2. The Baptism of infants also powerfully attests to the fact that the beauty of holiness and righteousness is available to everyone regardless of age. To be baptized means to be washed. Washed of what? Original Sin. At first this seems like a downer, Are you saying my baby has sin? Yep. All of us inherit Original Sin from Adam and Eve. We are born into a state of alienation from God that is caused by sin. The Scriptures are clear: [S]in entered the world through one man, and death through sin, and in this way death came to all men, because all sinned (Rom 5:12). So even infants are in need of the saving touch of God. Now why would we wish to delay this salvation and resulting holiness for 7 to 12 years? The Catechism says this,
Born with a fallen human nature and tainted by Original Sin, children also have need of new birth in Baptism to be freed from the power of darkness and be brought into the realm of the freedom of the children of God .The Church and parents would deny a child the priceless grace of becoming a child of God were they not to confer baptism shortly after birth. (CCC # 1250).
St. Cyprian Bishop of Carthage in the 3rd Century was asked if it was OK to wait to the 8th day to baptize since baptism had replaced circumcision. He respond with a strong no:
But in respect of the case of the infants, which you say ought not to be baptized within the second or third day after their birth, and that the law of ancient circumcision should be regarded, so that you think that one who is just born should not be baptized and sanctified within the eighth day We [the bishops] all thought very differently in our council. For in this course which you thought was to be taken, no one agreed; but we all rather judge that the mercy and grace of God is not to be refused to any one born of man. (Epist# 58).
So then here is the beauty, that infants are summoned to receive the precious gift of holiness and righteousness and that they are summoned to a right relationship with God by having their sin purged and holiness infused. Infants are called to this dignity and should not be denied it. With this done, some of the holiest and most innocent days of our lives may well be our first years. Then, as the will begins to manifest, and reason begins to dawn, the grace of holiness gives us extra strength to fight against the sinful world that looms.
3. The Baptism of Infants also attests to the fact that faith is gift for every stage of development- To be baptized is to receive the gift of faith. It is baptism that gives the true faith. Even with adults, true faith does not come until baptism. Prior to that there is a kind of prevenient faith, but it is not the Theological Virtue of Faith.
Now faith is not only an intellectual assent to revealed doctrine. It is that, but it is more. To have faith is also be be in a righteous and trusting relationship with God. An infant relates to his parents long before he speaks or his rational mind is fully formed. He trusts his parents and depends on them. It is the same with God. Thus the infant can well trust and depend on God and be in a right relationship with God, in an age appropriate way.
With his parents, his or her relationship of trust with parents, leads the infant to begin to speak and understand as he or she grows. It is the same with God. As the infants mind awakens, the infants faith grows. It will continue to grow until the day he or she dies (hopefully) as an old man or woman.
That faith accompanies us through every stage of our life, and develops as we do, is essential to its nature. An infant needs faith no less than an old man. An infant benefits from faith no less than a teenager or an adult. To argue, as some Protestants do, that you have to be a certain age before faith can exist, hardly seems to respect the progressive nature of faith which is able to bless EVERY stage of our human journey.
I have some very vivid memories of my experience of God prior to seven years of age and I will say that God was very powerfully present to me in my early years, in many ways even more so than now, when my mind sometimes gets in the way.
Too many Catholics are waiting months, even years to have their children baptized. Precious time is lost by this delay. Infant Baptism speaks powerfully of the love that God has for everyone he has created and of his desire to have everyone in a right and saving relationship with Him. Surely baptism alone isnt enough. The child must be raised in the faith. It is the nature of faith that it grows by hearing and seeing. Children must have faith given at baptism but that faith must be explained and unwrapped like a precious gift for them.
Dont delay. Get started early and teach your child the faith they have received every day.
What if they should die the next week?

I am aware of that. Three dashes of water Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Your post made it sound as though water were not necessary.
Lutherans face the same challenge nowadays, despite the strong admonitions of the Larger Catechism:
Of Infant Baptism.
47] Here a question occurs by which the devil, through his sects, confuses the world, namely, Of Infant Baptism, whether children also believe, and are justly baptized. Concerning this we say briefly: 48] Let the simple dismiss this question from their minds, and refer it to the learned. But if you wish to answer, 49] then answer thus:-
That the Baptism of infants is pleasing to Christ is sufficiently proved from His own work, namely, that God sanctifies many of them who have been thus baptized, and has given them the Holy Ghost; and that there are yet many even to-day in whom we perceive that they have the Holy Ghost both because of their doctrine and life; as it is also given to us by the grace of God that we can explain the Scriptures and come to the knowledge of Christ, which is impossible without the Holy Ghost. 50] But if God did not accept the baptism of infants, He would not give the Holy Ghost nor any of His gifts to any of them; in short, during this long time unto this day no man upon earth could have been a Christian. Now, since God confirms Baptism by the gifts of His Holy Ghost, as is plainly perceptible in some of the church fathers, as St. Bernard, Gerson, John Hus, and others, who were baptized in infancy, and since the holy Christian Church cannot perish until the end of the world, they must acknowledge that such infant baptism is pleasing to God. For He can never be opposed to Himself, or support falsehood and wickedness, or for its promotion impart His grace and Spirit. 51] This is indeed the best and strongest proof for the simple-minded and unlearned. For they shall not take from us or overthrow this article: I believe a holy Christian Church, the communion of saints.
52] Further, we say that we are not so much concerned to know whether the person baptized believes or not; for on that account Baptism does not become invalid; but everything depends upon the Word and command of God. 53] This now is perhaps somewhat acute, but it rests entirely upon what I have said, that Baptism is nothing else than water and the Word of God in and with each other, that is, when the Word is added to the water, Baptism is valid, even though faith be wanting. For my faith does not make Baptism, but receives it. Now, Baptism does not become invalid even though it be wrongly received or employed; since it is not bound (as stated) to our faith, but to the Word.
54] For even though a Jew should to-day come dishonestly and with evil purpose, and we should baptize him in all good faith, we must say that his baptism is nevertheless genuine. For here is the water together with the Word of God, even though he does not receive it as he should, just as those who unworthily go to the Sacrament receive the true Sacrament, even though they do not believe.
55] Thus you see that the objection of the sectarians is vain. For (as we have said) even though infants did not believe, which, however, is not the case, yet their baptism as now shown would be valid, and no one should rebaptize them; just as nothing is detracted from the Sacrament though some one approach it with evil purpose, and he could not be allowed on account of his abuse to take it a second time the selfsame hour, as though he had not received the true Sacrament at first; for that would mean to blaspheme and profane the Sacrament in the worst manner. How dare we think that God's Word and ordinance should be wrong and invalid because we make a wrong use of it?
56] Therefore I say, if you did not believe then believe now and say thus: The baptism indeed was right, but I, alas! did not receive it aright. For I myself also, and all who are baptized, must speak thus before God: I come hither in my faith and in that of others, yet I cannot rest in this, that I believe, and that many people pray for me; but in this I rest, that it is Thy Word and command. Just as I go to the Sacrament trusting not in my faith, but in the Word of Christ; whether I am strong or weak, that I commit to God. But this I know, that He bids me go, eat and drink, etc., and gives me His body and blood; that will not deceive me or prove false to me.
57] Thus we do also in infant baptism. We bring the child in the conviction and hope that it believes, and we pray that God may grant it faith; but we do not baptize it upon that, but solely upon the command of God. Why so? Because we know that God does not lie. I and my neighbor and, in short, all men, may err and deceive, but the Word of God cannot err.
58] Therefore they are presumptuous, clumsy minds that draw such inferences and conclusions as these: Where there is not the true faith, there also can be no true Baptism. Just as if I would infer: If I do not believe, then Christ is nothing; or thus: If I am not obedient, then father, mother, and government are nothing. Is that a correct conclusion, that whenever any one does not do what he ought, the thing in itself shall be nothing and of no value? 59] My dear, just invert the argument and rather draw this inference: For this very reason Baptism is something and is right, because it has been wrongly received. For if it were not right and true in itself, it could not be misused nor sinned against. The saying is: Abusus non tollit, sed confirmat substantiam, Abuse does not destroy the essence, but confirms it. For gold is not the less gold though a harlot wear it in sin and shame.
60] Therefore let it be decided that Baptism always remains true, retains its full essence, even though a single person should be baptized, and he, in addition, should not believe truly. For God's ordinance and Word cannot be made variable or be altered by men. 61] But these people, the fanatics, are so blinded that they do not see the Word and command of God, and regard Baptism and the magistrates only as they regard water in the brook or in pots, or as any other man; and because they do not see faith nor obedience, they conclude that they are to be regarded as invalid. 62] Here lurks a concealed seditious devil, who would like to tear the crown from the head of authority and then trample it under foot, and, in addition, pervert and bring to naught all the works and ordinances of God. 63] Therefore we must be watchful and well armed, and not allow ourselves to be directed nor turned away from the Word, in order that we may not regard Baptism as a mere empty sign, as the fanatics dream.
64] Lastly, we must also know what Baptism signifies, and why God has ordained just such external sign and ceremony for the Sacrament by which we are first received into the Christian Church. 65] But the act or ceremony is this, that we are sunk under the water, which passes over us, and afterwards are drawn out again. These two parts, to be sunk under the water and drawn out again, signify the power and operation of Baptism, which is nothing else than putting to death the old Adam, and after that the resurrection of the new man, both of which must take place in us all our lives, so that a truly Christian life is nothing else than a daily baptism, once begun and ever to be continued. For this must be practised without ceasing, that we ever keep purging away whatever is of the old Adam, and that that which belongs to the new man come forth. 66] But what is the old man? It is that which is born in us from Adam, angry, hateful, envious, unchaste, stingy, lazy, haughty, yea, unbelieving, infected with all vices, and having by nature nothing good in it. 67] Now, when we are come into the kingdom of Christ, these things must daily decrease, that the longer we live we become more gentle, more patient, more meek, and ever withdraw more and more from unbelief, avarice, hatred, envy, haughtiness.
68] This is the true use of Baptism among Christians, as signified by baptizing with water. Where this, therefore, is not practised, but the old man is left unbridled, so as to continually become stronger, that is not using Baptism, but striving against Baptism. 69] For those who are without Christ cannot but daily become worse, according to the proverb which expresses the truth, "Worse and worse-the longer, the worse." 70] If a year ago one was proud and avaricious, then he is much prouder and more avaricious this year, so that the vice grows and increases with him from his youth up. A young child has no special vice; but when it grows up, it becomes unchaste and impure, and when it reaches maturity, real vices begin to prevail the longer, the more.
71] Therefore the old man goes unrestrained in his nature if he is not checked and suppressed by the power of Baptism. On the other hand, where men have become Christians, he daily decreases until he finally perishes. That is truly to be buried in Baptism, and daily to come forth again. 72] Therefore the external sign is appointed not only for a powerful effect, but also for a signification. 73] Where, therefore, faith flourishes with its fruits, there it has no empty signification, but the work [of mortifying the flesh] accompanies it; but where faith is wanting, it remains a mere unfruitful sign.
74] And here you see that Baptism, both in its power and signification, comprehends also the third Sacrament, which has been called repentance, 75] as it is really nothing else than Baptism. For what else is repentance but an earnest attack upon the old man [that his lusts be restrained] and entering upon a new life? Therefore, if you live in repentance, you walk in Baptism, which not only signifies such a new life, but also produces, begins, and exercises it. 76] For therein are given grace, the Spirit, and power to suppress the old man, so that the new man may come forth and become strong.
77] Therefore our Baptism abides forever; and even though some one should fall from it and sin, nevertheless we always have access thereto, that we may again subdue the old man. 78] But we need not again be sprinkled with water; for though we were put under the water a hundred times, it would nevertheless be only one Baptism, although the operation and signification continue and remain. 79] Repentance, therefore, is nothing else than a return and approach to Baptism, that we repeat and practise what we began before, but abandoned.
80] This I say lest we fall into the opinion in which we were for a long time, imagining that our Baptism is something past, which we can no longer use after we have fallen again into sin. The reason is, that it is regarded only according to the external act once performed [and completed]. 81] And this arose from the fact that St. Jerome wrote that repentance is the second plank by which we must swim forth and cross over after the ship is broken, on which we step and are carried across when we come into the Christian Church. 82] Thereby the use of Baptism has been abolished so that it can profit us no longer. Therefore the statement is not correct, or at any rate not rightly understood. For the ship never breaks, because (as we have said) it is the ordinance of God, and not a work of ours; but it happens, indeed, that we slip and fall out of the ship. Yet if any one fall out, let him see to it that he swim up and cling to it till he again come into it and live in it, as he had formerly begun.
83] Thus it appears what a great, excellent thing Baptism is, which delivers us from the jaws of the devil and makes us God's own, suppresses and takes away sin, and then daily strengthens the new man; and is and remains ever efficacious until we pass from this estate of misery to eternal glory.
84] For this reason let every one esteem his Baptism as a daily dress in which he is to walk constantly, that he may ever be found in the faith and its fruits, that he suppress the old man and grow up in the new. 85] For if we would be Christians, we must practise the work whereby we are Christians. 86] But if any one fall away from it, let him again come into it. For just as Christ, the Mercy-seat, does not recede from us or forbid us to come to Him again, even though we sin, so all His treasure and gifts also remain. If, therefore, we have once in Baptism obtained forgiveness of sin, it will remain every day, as long as we live, that is, as long as we carry the old man about our neck.
First of all, I doubt that there are any infants in hell, if, perchance, I am wrong, I doubt they are there because they were not baptized. In the same voice, I doubt there are any infants in heaven just because they were baptized.
If G-d is in the habit of condemning infants to eternity in hell or a lengthy time in a limbo state just because they missed baptism, he is not the G-d of the bible and, mayhap, a god I don't wish to entrust my eternal salvation to.
Saying that, I have entrusted my eternal salvation to Him and therefore know He would never condemn and infant to hell or any mythical limbo.
Baptism is a voluntary offering to God indicating that you publicly acknowledge that Jesus is your savior and infants can't voluntarily do anything except eat, sleep and poop.
When I was a baby, the Catholic Church emphasized that babies should be Baptized as soon as possible. I think I was maybe three weeks old. However, today... the Church doesn't really emphasize this much. For your first child, the parents have to attend classes (AFTER the birth of the child). So, our son was closer to four months old. (I say AFTER because our Parish had that restriction). So, I did what my old Catholic school girl friends did... I Baptized them myself at home and then had them "formally" Baptized. My husband Baptized our youngest in a hotel room in China (just in case). It made me feel better. Wether this is sanctioned or not... I know seven old school friends who did just this.
I think it's going back to those old rules.
Ir would seem tham many people do NOT realize that there is an imparting of the Holy Spirit to the child. Some children know they are bound for a vocation as a priest or religious at the early age of five.
It's the grace of Baptism
"... to those old rules".
What I have been told is that Godparents were essential for two reasons. They assisted in the Catholic upbringing of the child AND the godmother usually held the baby (in the olden days, many of the Moms sat in a pew because they were still not healed from delivery). If parents could take the classes before the birth, that would help. If the parents could schedule the Baptism before the birth, that would help as well. You have your due date and most doctors will not let you go over two weeks past that. So, an earlier Baptism is possible. IMHO.
Baptism is a symbol. Water does not save you. Baptism does not save you. The cross does not save you, nor does the Pope, priests, nuns, preachers, the church, or any human living or dead. You can certainly be told about Christ from these people...but that's where it ends. Your relationship with Christ is personal.

Delhi government move to hike minimum wages hits LG bump
New Delhi, Sep 2 (IANS) The Delhi government on Friday sent a file on hiking minimum wages back to Lt Governor Najeeb Jung for approval after correcting errors that he had pointed out, a government official said.
The Lt. Governor's Office on Friday had returned the file to the Delhi government citing some flaws and had asked that it be sent again after rectifying the errors.
"Labour Minister Gopal Rai conducted a meeting of the officials of the department and rectified the errors and again sent the file to the LG for approval today (Friday)," a Delhi government official told IANS.
Earlier in the day, Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal said that Lt. Governor Jung had returned the Delhi government's file on hiking minimum wages in the city — highlighting the escalating tension between the two sides.
"On a day when 18 crore workers are on strike, Modi's LG returns file on minimum wages," Kejriwal tweeted.
Radiologists and nurses from across the nation are on strike demanding a hike in their basic pay.
The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) government last month approved the revision of minimum wages by about 50 per cent in the national capital.
The minimum wages in Delhi for unskilled workers will increase from Rs 9,568 to Rs 14,052 per month, while for semi-skilled workers they will rise from Rs 10,582 to Rs 15,471, and skilled worker from Rs 11,622 to Rs 17,033.
After the cabinet's approval the file was sent to the Lt. Governor for his nod.
Labour Minister Rai had met Jung over the issue and said the LG returned the file citing some errors in it.
"I met LG today (Friday) and he told me that there were some errors in the minimum wages file so he returned it and asked us to submit it again," Rai told reporters after the meeting.
He added: "The LG had agreed with the government's decision to increase the minimum wages in the national capital."

USA: Learn Riding on a Street 500 at the Harley-Davidson Riding Academy
Harley Davidson is well-known for its riding program in the USA which hopes to act as a reliable initiation into the world of motorcycle riding. The program has gotten a thorough makeover, including a new name. Harley-Davidson Riding Academy is the sole national-level riding program that is held across all of the companies dealerships in the USA, and on new Harley's to boot. Since its introduction in 2000, the Harley Davidson program has given its seal of approval to 350,000 initiants. Emphasis is placed on helping trainees gain real-world knowledge but there is theory-based coaching as well in this Motorcycle Safety Foundation (MSF)-certified course.
Harley Davidson's New Rider Course equips entrants to the field with most everything they will require to get their life on to wheels started off on the right note. Instructors are certified by the MSF, Harley provides the bikes, and the total duration of the training lasts 20 hours. There's one instructor for every six students of the course, ensuring that there is a healthy amount of interaction between experts and tyro. All students need to bring to this patently Harley is their riding gear, and the rest will be taken care of by the program. And that isn't even the best part.
Students at the riding academy get to take their first baby steps in the motorcycling world on a Harley-Davidson Street 500. This is the newest Harley bike on the block and its entry-level underpinnings mean that students get to experience the Hog without being overcome by it. Just so that the first-timers don't get carried by the grandeur of the occasion, a Power Limit Calibration unit is installed on all Street 500s, capping the speeds that can be done on low gears. Vehicle Protection Kits are used to protect the bike and allay students' fear of damaging it.
There are a number of benefits associated with being a graduate of the Harley Davidson Riding Academy. Some states in the USA exempt students from having to undergo another test to get their license. Insurance providers are also known to extend discounts to pass-outs. HD plans on taking the course to Mexico, China and South Africa. Let's hope India figures on that list soon.

Matchbox Twenty delivers the hits
By MICHAEL ECK
Special to the Times Union
ALBANY … Arena rock is alive and well.
Thursday night, Matchbox Twenty headlined a triple bill at the Times Union Center that included up-and-comers Mute Math and fellow hit-maker Alanis Morissette.
Ever since the beginning of their career, Matchbox has made music for the cheap seats, and with the new songs tacked on to their 2007 greatest hits album, "Exile on Mainstream," they're still doing the same.
"How Far We've Come," the lead-off track on "Mainstream," is as brilliant an opening gambit as has ever been penned.
It's a thrilling, anthemic churn that makes you forget, as you swallow it whole, just how facile it is.
Like other Matchbox Twenty hits, including the similarly surging "3 a.m." and "Real World," it recycles riffs from the past with made-to-order lyrics that make it awfully hard not to pump your fist in the air as you shake your hips.
Not that any of that is a bad thing.
Neither was the carefully staged opening on Thursday … which utilized video and stark lighting before the band burst into "How Far."
Rob Thomas and company also dress their hits right, striking an everyman pose that makes each person in the audience feel that they too could do this, given the chance.
As such, Thursday was a hit-packed affair that couldn't fail to please.
In addition to the muscular rockers ("Downfall," "Long Day") and power ballads("Push," "Back 2 Good," the cellphone-lit "These Hard Times"), Matchbox offered the requisite unplugged set, which included "Hang" and a beautiful reading of "If You're Gone," with guitarist Paul Doucette on piano.
Thomas also tickled the keys on "Could I Be You" and a killer set-closing take of "Bright Lights" (paired with The Beatles' "She Came In Through The Bathroom Window").
In addition to the fantastic "How Far," the band also pulled "I'll Believe You When," "If I Fall" and the poppy, crowd-pleasing "All Your Reasons" from the new selections on "Mainstream."
Morissette's set seemed positively nostalgic, given that it's been a few years since she's been heard or seen with new material.
She too has a big old bag of hits that she can reach into, and she did.
"Hand in My Pocket" was filled by both Morissette's wheezing harmonica as well as a touch of harmonium, and "Ironic" was sung as much by the crowd as by the singer herself.
Morissette made use of her simple stage set by pacing every corner of it; twirling like a dervish; and striking strange poses that perfectly fit her eccentric tunes.
"You Learn" was the clear highlight of her set, but "You Oughta Know" (prefaced with a funny, cabaret-styled take on the Black Eyed Peas' "My Humps") rocked like it was brand new.
Mute Math, a New Orleans quartet, on the other hand, are a little early in their career for a greatest hits package, but they didn't let that stop them from acting like they deserved one.
Their brief set was ferociously energetic and capped with a frenzy that found three-quarters of the band ganging up on the drum set, while guitarist Greg Hill tweaked space noises out of his guitar pedal board, which he wielded like a weapon.
Michael Eck, a freelance writer from Albany, is a frequent contributor to the Times Union.
MATCHBOX TWENTY With Alanis Morissette and Mute Math
When: 7 p.m. Thursday
Where: Times Union Center, Pearl Street, Albany
Length: Matchbox Twenty, 2 hours; Alanis Morissette, 45 minutes; Mute Math, 20 minutes
Highlights: The surprise encore of the Naked Eyes' version of "Always Something There to Remind Me"
The crowd: About 12,000 arena rock fans

I would give it 3.5 stars. This book, just like the others, is just ok. It's a short easy read. The book doesn't get in depth with the characters and issues. It was a good book, but not great and it is something I will quickly forget. I do like the fact that the book has people from all aspects of life. You shouldn't judge someone before you know them and why they made the choices they have made. I appreciate that Robin Lee Hatcher includes characters that make mistakes and they aren't sinless. It makes the story more realistic because that's how real life is. Overall this was a good book, I did enjoy it, but I didn't love it. If you like the author then I would recommend the series.

Ex-Ansonia cop gets federal prison time
Updated 10:07 pm, Wednesday, February 12, 2014
HARTFORD -- A decorated former East Haven police sergeant will spend four months in a federal prison camp beginning in March as a result of his guilty plea to using excessive force in an arrest.
U.S. District Judge Alvin W. Thompson imposed the prison term and a $3,000 fine on John Miller, 44, of Orange. Miller grew up in Ansonia and spent five years as a police officer there before joining the East Haven department.
While in East Haven, Miller was caught up in a federal investigation involving officers harassing and profiling Hispanic residents.The probe focused on officers using excessive force, conducting unconstitutional searches and seizures and filing false police reports, according to U.S. Attorney Deirdre Daly.
The investigation led to the indictment and conviction of Miller, and East Haven Officers Dennis Spaulding, Jason Zullo and David Cari.
Miller pleaded guilty to an unrelated charge of punching a handcuffed suspect in the stomach during a Jan. 3, 2010 arrest. He pleaded guilty to the excessive force charge on Sept. 21, 2012, retired from the force and cooperated in the FBI investigation.
Miller apologized to the court for his actions in a letter to Thompson.
The federal sentencing guidelines recommended a sentence ranging from 12 to 18 months in prison. However, Thompson credited Miller for his cooperation.
During his career as an East Haven police officer, Miller won 18 commendations including the Medal of Honor, which was awarded in 2008. He also was involved in two fatal shootings during the apprehension of violent offenders.
Since retiring from the East Haven department, Miller has worked as union director for organization and field services for the AFSCME Council 15, Connecticut Council of Police Officers.
The other officers also were sentenced to federal prison terms.
Zullo pleaded guilty to obstruction of justice by filing a false police report in an investigation into excessive force and was sentenced to two years in prison.
A jury convicted Cari and Spaulding of conspiring against constitutional rights, deprivation of constitutional rights by making arrest without probable cause and obstruction of a federal investigation by preparing a false report to justify false arrests. Spaulding also was convicted of using excessive force.
Spaulding was sentenced to five years in prison and Cari to 30 months in prison.

I have been doing the gel polish for about 3 months and highly recommend it. I prefer CND Shellac as I have had the best experience with it. I began doing it in preparation for my wedding and have no complaints but I do agree that it depends on the technique. Gelish is another good brand I like. I DO NOT recommend the OPI Axxium. It is thick and damaging to nails. Tried it one time and it was aweful. Give the others a shot and see what you think. Its def worth a try.

Never tried it but thought I would give it a try since all these sites like Lifebooker and Dealist are offering deals.
Has anyone tried it???

ADM Systems are at the forefront of sustainable living. We have been developing energy efficient air ventilation systems for over 30 years and are now the UK's leading independent specialists with expert knowledge of 'heat recovery'.We all strive to be 'kind to the planet' and take responsibility for our own carbon footprint, and where better to start than in our homes where 'air inside can be up to ten times more polluted than the air in the street' (Building Research Establishment Report 1996).
By the year 2016 all new build homes across the UK must be zero carbon. We work to Building Regulations standards to achieve this target and work alongside builders, self-builders, renovators, architects, and building service contractors to design and build energy efficient dwellings that conform to the UK's Code for Sustainable Homes.
Additional Information
Moisture in the air can lead to condensation and mould growth. Damp conditions are caused by reduced ventilation levels and increasing humidity caused by cooking, clothes drying, bathing, showering. House dust mites flourish in these conditions, which can lead to asthma and other health issues.
Deaths from asthma in the UK are around 1,500 per year, of which around 60% has been attributed to dust mite allergy. One in eight children suffer with ASTHMA in the UK..We all strive to be 'kind to the planet' and take responsibility for our own carbon footprint, but this can lead to the air inside our homes being 'ten times more polluted than the air in the street' (Building Research Establishment Report 1996).
The desire for better insulated homes, combined with the DIY surge and our exposure to a wider range of materials, paints and cleaning products, which produces volatile organic compounds (VOC's), increases the danger of polluting the very environments that we automatically think of as 'safe'.The average adult spends 90% of their time indoors, and consumes about 40kg of air every day. This air can contain a variety of dangerous gasses such as carbon monoxide, carbon dioxide and nitrogen dioxide that circulate at random.
Airtight environments quickly become stale and heavily contaminated, leading to reduced health and comfort.Radon is an odourless gas that comes from the minute amount of uranium found in water, soil and rocks. It is harmless in the outdoor air, but when trapped within a dwelling can be extremely dangerous to your health. Radon is found in all areas of the UK although some areas have a higher level than others. View Radon Map, to see if you are in a high level area:

As opposed to most other essential occasions funerals may not come with much progress notice. Arranging and organizing a significant service could be difficult. Making a funeral software is a approach to add a touch to the emotional celebration. Follow these pointers for creating a funeral program to make this easy.
Building a Funeral Service Program
The idea of making a funeral software often occurs to someone as a way to pay tribute to the recollection of the deceased in a important way that may be shared with different mourners attending the memorial. However , attempting to becomes a daunting task. Of course, this is not a few piece of paper. A funeral system can be a origin of comfort if you're grieving, and something you just read during an upsetting and often noiseless time. The obligation for putting together something worthy of a person who just died could be overwhelming. Thankfully, a few simple tips for creating a funeral system can make the task easier and ensure that the funeral service program is certainly worthy of the person it is specialized in.
Finding Funeral service Program Layouts and Designs
People buying way to create a nice looking memorial service program quite often look to the web for memorial service templates that can be downloaded and used to generate a free funeral service program which can be printed and distributed to the attending the service. Sadly, the vast majority of listings for funeral service programs are nothing but advertising. Searching the internet Microsoft Office Templates to get funeral programs comes up unfilled as well. A helpful suggestion is to seek advice from the funeral company or church carrying out the memorial service. Often , these types of organizations can provide a memorial program design or even produce the program for you.
Another helpful tip is to remember that virtually any respectful and important function that utilizes a plan can be the supply of a suitable funeral service system template. For instance , wedding software templates are much more common as well as some are installed with Microsoft Business office or available on the web. In a nip, a newletter template can be utilised as well.
To start with, this may seem to be in poor taste, although a second look reveals that weddings are important and dignified incidents. A few modifications to such a theme can easily make up the basis of a classy and unique funeral software. In this case in point, a simple marriage ceremony program design template has the wording and terminology changed as well as the font in the dates lowered in size to create a very delightful tasting and simple burial program
Do not forget that the most important point about funeral service programs is usually not their very own design or perhaps layout, but rather what they say and the subject matter they share. Go light on images and colors. Funerals are sorrowful occasions regardless if other memories events usually are not necessarily hence. This is not you a chance to let your graphic design expertise glimmer through.
Be sure to avoid the most common funeral system mistakes. Be sure to double, three times, and quadruple check the spelling of the deceased's name. End up being sure that any kind of religious iconography used is acceptable. Obviously, you want to combine up the icons from several religions, somebody that there could be significant dissimilarities among the emblems used within different types of the same certitude. Don't merely pick clip art because it looks good. Make sure it is actually right.
With any luck , these tips can assist you create a memorial service program that honors all those who have passed and those who mourn them with out too much additional angst.

Three international homosexual rights advocacy organizations are jointly urging the treaty compliance committee that reviews implementation of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR) to incorporate the controversial "Yogyakarta Principles on the Application of International Human Rights Law in Relation to Sexual Orientation and Gender Identity" in its recommendations.
The three groups – ARC International (ARC), the International Gay and Lesbian Human Rights Commission (IGLHRC) and the International Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex Association (ILGA) – lobbied the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (CESCR) last month to include a reference to the Yogyakarta Principles in a new "General Comment," or interpretive guideline, that CESCR is drafting in order to "assist" states "in meeting their treaty obligations."
As with all other United Nations (UN) treaties, ICESCR is silent with regard to "sexual orientation" and "gender identity," fluid concepts that advocates say should be included within specially-protected rights categories.
The effort appears to be part of a recent, coordinated push to elevate the status of the Yogyakarta Principles from a policy statement crafted by UN bureaucrats and representatives of non-governmental organizations to a soft-law standard that would increasingly be referenced in more formal contexts, such as by the bodies charged with reviewing countries' compliance with international treaties.
Last month a Dutch government official also called upon nations to join his country in accepting the Yogyakarta Principles.
By pushing the Yogyakarta Principles before treaty monitoring committees like CESCR, homosexual rights proponents appear to be following a strategy used by abortion rights activists seeking to overcome opposition to abortion by states, arguing that domestic legislation should give way to new, evolving soft-law international norms, despite the absence of reference to such "norms" in actual hard-law treaties ratified by sovereign nations.
In addition to utilizing compliant treaty bodies, the playbook calls for advancing the argument in academic literature. The joint statement by ARC, IGLHRC and ILGA appears derived in substance from a 2008 Human Rights Law Review article authored by Michael O'Flaherty and John Fisher. O'Flaherty is a member of a separate treaty monitory body, the Human Rights Committee (HRC), and a Rapporteur for the Development of the Yogyakarta Principles, while Fisher is ARC's activist co-founder.
In their article, "Sexual Orientation, Gender Identity, and International Human Rights Law: Contextualizing the Yogyakarta Principles," O'Flaherty and Fisher fault CESCR for lagging behind O'Flaherty's HRC in urging member states to adopt sexual orientation non-discrimination policies via recommendations that the authors acknowledge to be "non-binding and flexible." Statistics they cite, however, show little distinction between CESCR, which raised "sexual orientation-related discrimination" concerns with 11% of the states that appeared before it, and HRC, which did so 15% of the time.
ARC is a Canada-based non-governmental organization committed to advancing "recognition of sexual orientation and gender identity issues at the international level." IGLHRC emphasizes advocacy and "coalition building," while ILGA is an umbrella organization which in 1993 became the first homosexual group to be granted UN consultative status. In 1995, however, the UN's Economic and Social Council stripped ILGA of its status over allegations of pedophilia advocacy by certain member organizations.

Scarlett Johansson Has a Bob Now
I know all the cool girls (Alexa Chung, Chloë Sevigny et al) have this cut.
The elements: Chopped just above the shoulders, all one length but with razored, uneven tips and some mad tousling.
Now Scarlett Johansson—known more for putting forth a bombshell beauty and fashion vibe—has succumbed to the trend.
I don't know about this, Scarlett. I just don't know.
Let's take a look at her before and after—and then you tell me what you think:
There's just something about this new cut—which actually isn't so new anymore, is it? As depicted in August Vogue, Gwyneth has already moved on by growing hers out.
Anyway, something about it bothers me. It just looks ratty. (And yes, I'm aware that's the point.) I want to run a comb and a flat iron through it, and then get rid of those too-thin layers at the ends.
Call me boring, but I like the old, sexpot Scarlett—not this attempt to be all "edgy," two years after everyone else had this hairdo.
Do you agree?

I am having a strange issue that I think may be a syntax problem but I dont understand completely.
Here is my code:
I am requesting the page containing the above code passing the get parameters as follows: ../page.php?famType="M01"&geo="2"PHP Code:
$famTypeStr = $famTypes[$_GET['famType']];
echo "<script>alert('famType: " . $_GET['famType'] . " | " . $famTypeStr . "')</script>"; //DEBUG
$subgeoStr = $_GET['geo'];
echo "<script>alert('geo: " . $_GET['geo'] . " | " . $famTypeStr . "')</script>"; //DEBUG
The alert box pops up for both if statements and it prints the contents of the get variables as desired, but both $famTypeStr and $subgeoStr are null.
Is there something wrong with the assignment syntax I'm using in these cases?

The owners of the dive support vessel DSND Pelican had given up hope of finding Christopher McGonigle, 35, alive after he disappeared 140 miles east of Aberdeen at the weekend.
It was assumed he had been washed over the side. The ship was searched and helicopters called in immediately to sweep the cold waters early on Saturday. The operation, which lasted almost two days, involved up to 11 other ships.
But on Sunday evening a crewman heard noises coming from beside a storeroom and Mr McGonigle, from Strabane in Northern Ireland, was discovered collapsed on an internal roof panel. He was flown by helicopter to Aberdeen Royal Infirmary where he was being treated yesterday for a broken leg.
It was not clear how he came to be trapped in the alcove. Officers from Grampian police are expected to board the ship and investigate when the Pelican docks. Some reports said he was found with water and food.
Aberdeen Coastguard's watch manager, George Downie, said: "We are absolutely amazed and delighted that this man has been found. A very thorough search of the vessel was made several times over by the crew and there was no sign of him.
"The doctor on board the vessel examined him and found that he was suffering from a broken leg."
Father John Doherty, a parish priest in Strabane, said Mr McGonigle's family were overjoyed he had been found alive.
"Somebody in the gym adjacent to the storeroom was alerted by a noise and discovered him," he said. "Having been there for a couple of days, he had suffered hypothermia, dehydration and a broken leg.
"The family were able to talk to him on the phone and they are just delighted but have no idea how he broke his leg.
"Most of the family are going off to Aberdeen to meet him. They said themselves that it was some Christmas present - the best they could have hoped for."

Response from Activity Superstore
Thank you for taking the time to write this review. I am sorry to read of the misperception regarding your London Pleasure Flight experience. Having looked into this, my colleague you spoke to prior to your experience did not confirm that this was a helicopter flight. I have spoke to the retailer and the images provided for this experience have not advertised a helicopter. The flight was described as on board a 4-seater twin engined aircraft. If you would like us to investigate the conversations you had with our agents further, please contact our customer service department and we will be happy to look into this for you.

Not a helicopter ride!
When this was bought it was advertised with a picture of a helicopter - saying London pleasure flight. So, I understandingly thought it was a helicopter ride over London - it's not. It's in a small plane. I only found out on the day when we turned up at the airfield. I wasn't the only one who had been missold to, as the other participant thought it was a helicopter too. Plus the pilot said activity superstore do this a lot. The plane ride was good to be fair - just wasn't what I expected
