Elijah Muhammad's national representative, Minister Malcolm X was an icon of the early 1960s. He spoke out against the silly philosophy of "turn the other cheek, love thy enemy", nonviolence.
Malcolm declared: "We declare our rights on this earth, to be a man; to be a human being; to be respected as a human being, to be given the rights of a human being, in this society, on this earth, in this day, which we intend to bring into existence BY ANY MEANS NECESSARY!!!!"
Feminism did not exist during Malcolm's era.
Women did not even wear pants during his time.
When people lived on farms and did manual labor, there was no dispute about who chopped down trees to build the houses & boats; or who drew water from the well. It was obvious what a woman's place was then, and it should be obvious now.

Before abortions were legal we had a pretty good world. We had people who invented different machines that made life easier and scientists who discovered many new vaccines and new antibiotics there were many great musicians and singers. There was crime too that has always been with us but it wasn't as in your face as it is today. People were nicer and had better manners and most went to church every Sunday. I know I really liked my life then. I remember being so shocked when abortions became legal no one thought it would it was considered so barbaric to kill babies in the womb. The best we could get from our politicians was don't worry your taxes will never go to murder babies so much for their promises today we do pay for them even though we don't want to. Our country really starting changing after that and really changed once those 60's hippies turned into politicians. There was also the new drug culture too. When I was growing up and in my teens I never knew anyone using drugs in fact even in college I didn't at first and then stayed away from anyone later if I found out they were. Things changed slowly at first but these past 15 yrs I have seen massive changes in life styles of the average person. Many no longer even believe there is sin or a moral way to live instead it is live and let live. The last 10 yrs has shoved the gay life styles down our throats and forces us to deal with them even if we don't want to. Now they want to pre select what kind of baby they have. They want to weed out what they consider to be defective or of the wrong sex. I am glad I'm getting older because if the end isn't soon I will be closer to going home by death because I really am having a hard time living in this crazy world we have today. We do still have the power of prayer and I guess I would rather have that than any other type of power.

But now that we're 40 years past Roe v. Wade, many of us can see that the abortion agenda never was about "our pregnant daughters" at all. And it wasn't about creating a more fair, equal society. It was, at root, about sexual freedom with no consequences. A freedom that has cost an entire generation of children -- roughly 53 million babies to date -- their lives. And for what? Now that Social Security is in its death throes, one could argue that having 53 million more young adults in America right now might have been a good thing for all of us. That cursed hindsight.
By contrast, the LGBT agenda hasn't been fully realized -- yet. They say they want equality, fairness, civil rights. It's about sexual freedom, but it's really about state-sanctioned sexual freedom, one that will create a whole new definition of morality and civilization. That's a big change, one that will be nearly impossible to reverse. So it's about more than shrugging your shoulders about the two nice guys down the street who want to be married. It's also about accepting that, if homosexual couples are allowed to marry in the United States, the state -- as it has in the case of our newly "open" military --takes the official position that homosexuality is morally right. If you're a Christian family who believes that God was telling the truth in Romans, Chapter 1, you're the intolerant one under the new morality. And you'll have to be dealt with, in ways we have yet to see.
We do have an inkling of what's ahead, though, as seen in places like the U.S. military and some college campuses. When homosexual "rights" are recognized, religious rights -- guaranteed in our First Amendment -- are trumped. Even Equal Employment Opportunity Commission appointee and radical lesbian Chai Feldblum has said that when homosexual rights and religious liberty come into conflict, "I'm having a hard time coming up with any case in which religious liberty should win."
And don't forget that once the American public accepts that we must legally recognize a homosexual's "civil right" to marriage, how can we long deny those same "civil rights" to polygamists and polyamorists? Don't they have "love?" Don't they deserve "equality?" Look for those dominos to fall, too, probably more quickly than any of us can imagine.

Investigators now say a 17-year-old gunman who killed 15 people, mostly females, in and near his former high school in Germany took his own life. Lying gun thugs say the gunman entered the school and opened fire, shooting at random. What investigators are lying about is that the shootings were not random. The attack targeted abusive female teachers, female students, and females outside the school. They say he killed nine students, three teachers and a passer-by outside the building, but won't report the counter attack by a man against abusive dominant females.
As the femiNazi hate war on boys and men gets worse and worse, we will see more and more counter attacks against the evil in men's lives. Some of the men will become become suicide attackers. Some will be killed by the blue gun thugs. At first a few will survive to be sent to some hellhole prisons. As the counter attacks become more common there will be more and more courageous men who wage the war against feminist destruction and live to fight again another day. Many good men will die fighting the femiNazi, as did Jews in the Warsaw ghetto. But their names and their courage will live on.
May they all be blessed with courage and conviction. And may all good men hoist a glass to the martyrs who die fighting against the very violent and destructive femiNazi anti-men hate war.

How is it that adults who have even the slightest physical contact (sometimes not even intentionally sexual) with kids are permanently incarcerated and marginalized but cops, prosecutors and therapists can commit atrocities against children and never be held criminally, or even civilly, accountable? Hell, they don't even lose their jobs!
Yes, I am convinced; there IS evil in this world and much of it is committed by the self-righteous, self-proclaimed "child-savers" whose actual goal is to inflict great pain and suffering upon others. These are a power-hungry, sadistic breed who achieve their orgasms through the personal destruction of human beings, including kids.
So, let's stop being surprised that such evil exists and that our tax dollars sustain it. Let us start by standing up to these monsters who walk amongst us, unimpeded and unrestrained by any sense of humanity or decency or rule of law.

regardless of the MSM claims, most libs like Obama are die hard atheist. Obama worships his own brain, and that means he has a very weak god (little "g").
Jimmy Carter is an atheist, and he teaches Sunday School. He no more believes the bible, than Obama does.
To be a true democrat, one has to deny the Bible. You cannot agree with abortion, welfare, gov run schools, gay marriage, gays in the military….. and believe the Bible.

Egypt has become another cog in the Obama sanctioned Caliphate movement. Given his support of Islamist based movements around the world in the last few years I may have to promote Comrade Chairman Obama from Enemy of the United States to Enemy of Humanity. Should Islam come to rule the world humanity will suffer an eternity of darkness just as the Middle East has for the last 1400 years. With the exception of Israel the Middle East still resides in the Dark Ages.

Number one issue: THERE IS NO SUCH THING AS SEPARATION OF CHURCH AND STATE. The First Amendment was put in to protect the church FROM the state, never the other way around.
Remember, the wording says, "Congress shall make NO LAWS restricting the free exercise of religion" period! There are no indications of any restrictions on our religious liberties found in ANY of our founding documents. A letter sent to the Danbury Baptists, in reply to their inquiry about whether or not there would be a STATE church like England had, was clearly stated by Thomas Jefferson that there would be no such denomination. Freedom meant that the state would have no control over mankind's worship in America. A bogus supreme court case many years ago got the atheists foot in the door and every case since has been based on a BLATANT LIE. This happens when church leaders sit on their hands and hold their tongues when blatant lies are allowed to become law.
The same is true on Roe v. Wade and Doe v. Bolton allowing the wholesale MURDER of unborn CITIZENS of this nation. 53,000,000 babies have been slaughtered in butcher shops called abortion "clinics" across the USA.
When will the church of Jesus Christ have enough intestinal fortitude to end these lies? The vast majority of pastors in this land REFUSE to talk about abortion from their pulpits. Falwell and Kennedy were two heroes in our time on this issue, but sadly their voices are silent since they graduated into heaven. There are still a few voices out there fighting the good fight but they are few and far between.
Has life become so cheap that we can kill a child for about $350.00, often paid by tax dollars. Planned Parenthood gets over $300,000,000 yearly under the guise of women's health. HOGWASH!!!
This issue cuts my heart out and I will, with my dying breath, continue to cry out for the life of the unborn.
How long will the wrath of God be withheld when their blood cries out from the earth? He judged Israel for this very thing, shedding innocent blood.
Our liberties are challenged on a daily basis. What will be attacked next? This decision will be challenged before long, but we will never hear of other world religions being throttled in the same way.

While undoubtedly there were innocent people killed by the Nationalists in Spain, the fact remains the Church hadn't yet become so anti death penalty in the 1930's. Thousands upon thousands of Communists, Socialists and Anarchists ended up dead in Spain because they chose a life of mob violence, torture, desecration and destruction of that which is Holy.

BDSM is not only racist it is also antisemit. Black clothes and lethear are inspired by the Nazis (SS) and Foucault for example wrote that it turned him on to reanact the suffering of the Jews. The Nazis that still exist in Germany also seem to be above-average into BDSM and it's women who are humiliated and of course not men. They don't bother to lie about empowerfization unlike the self-proclaimed "progressives". So, do male Nazis just not realize that they are indeed and consequently against their own very intention empowering women through their fetishes although they promote childbearing and housewives (conservatism)? *cough*

I have found that analytical people (like me) can raise a pretty high wall against the truth of the Lord's Word.
One way to help them to hear His Word is to put a couple of plausible cracks in that wall.
Pre-med students should understand that it is impossible for amino acids to form proteins in the presence of oxygen so there must have been no oxygen in the atmosphere when the first proteins were formed.
In an atmosphere with no oxygen there is no ozone. With no ozone there is ultraviolet light bombarding the earth's surface destroying anything that resembles proteins.
Therefore the only evolutionary conditions that would allow proteins to form would destroy them.
It requires a huge amount of faith to believe that this impossible situation would allow proteins to form. And even more faith to get random proteins to form cell structures and magnitudes more for these to form life.
There are many of these "Impossible Evolutionary Situations" available if required but the main point is:
They may be more open to a solution that doesn't require such super human faith as evolution. Creation is a fantastic candidate. The love of God & gospel message soon follow.

I'll assume for the moment that women's suffrage is a good thing. It's still possible to do good things for the wrong reasons.
If you ask your typical leftist or liberal what the reason was for women's suffrage, they'll say "equality" - precisely the same reason they'll give for gay marriage, income redistribution, affirmative action, capitulation to Islam, multiculturalism, and all the various feminist abuses you've complained about in this entry.
But what do they mean by "equality"? Do they mean that women are, in general, equally prone to being politically and economically informed as men? Or perhaps liberals thought that womens' tendency to be less politically informed was simply a result of them not being allowed to vote, and that letting them vote would remedy that situation? If so, they were mistaken. Did they think that women are, in general, equally rational and capable of putting aside their emotions when considering abstract political issues as men? If so, again, they were mistaken. The greater emotionality is intrinsic to women (they couldn't perform the essential role that men can't - nurturing - without it).
Why do you think it is that women were not included in suffrage in the first place? Was it because of male oppression? Was it because our Founding Fathers were sexist jerks who didn't believe in equality?
In my opinion, no. It was primarily the result of the fact that women typically aren't naturally as interested in, or informed about, abstract political issues as men are, as demonstrated in that link above. Nearly all of the political philosophy and theory, rhetoric, political passion, energy, and manpower driving the American Revolution came from men, so it made perfect sense that they placed the responsibility of safeguarding what they had worked for on themselves once they had won it. That women weren't also placed in charge of guarding it at first was simply a reflection of the fact that, with few exceptions, they weren't the ones who had created and fought for it, intellectually or physically.
Later expanding the franchise to women was an act of generosity, not the overdue recognition of some natural and intrinsic political equality that had always existed but which had been suppressed by selfish and brutish patriarchal sexists. A person expecting some sort of material parity between the sexes to manifest itself in the wake of womens' suffrage would be sorely disappointed, and would likely move on to the next mad scheme to achieve it.
So it's not that women's suffrage itself necessarily leads to the many abuses of feminism we see today. It's the rationale typically behind it. If your rationale for suffrage is "equality", then you need to think hard about what you mean by that. It could be that you're using the same logic that has been used to justify all the atrocities of feminism, but that you just haven't (out of basic sanity) been willing to push it as far as they have.

So now you have your way because prayer is out of school and all these children think like you do. The result of the lib mind set since the 60's has resulted in what we have now a failing Public School system that many graduate illiterates. You libs did a fine job with the school system huh?

[One commenter points out that a mere 60 years ago whites overtly discriminated against black Americans with segregation.]
I take it you are not a Bible reader? The Canaanites were cursed by God, due to the fact that they didn't respect authority. Thus, they were cursed into slavery for many generations. Jesus put an end to the slavery, but those who don't follow Jesus, don't seem to know this.
Don't blame the U.S. We saved [black Americans], fed them, clothed them, and paid them HANDSOMELY. To this day, they refuse to give God the credit for their blessings and want more from US.

Quote# 88004
Politics is downstream of culture, which is why our moonbat rulers follow Antonio Gramsci's strategy of seizing control of strategic high ground (the media, academia) and using it to weaken the culture, rather than trying to inflict communism all at once through brute force. Our willingness to tolerate and possibly even extend the presidency of Barack Hussein Obama is a testament to the strategy's efficacy. Though Democrats have profited enormously from induced cultural decay, now that Rep. Gary Ackerman (D-NY) is retiring, he can tell the truth:
"Society has changed. The public is to blame as well. I think the people have gotten dumber. I don't know that I would've said that out loud pre-my announcement that I was going to be leaving. [Laughter] But I think that's true. I mean everything has changed. The media has changed. We now give broadcast licenses to philosophies instead of people."
Virtually everything broadcast on television advances the same philosophy: moonbattery.
Soon politics will be utterly superfluous, because the American people will have been "fundamentally transformed." Already if James Madison came back from the dead and ran on a platform of restoring the Constitution, against Robert Mugabe running on a platform of spreading white folks' wealth around, there is no doubt the media would stridently side with Mugabe, and little doubt that Mugabe would win.
What if George Washington himself returned and was somehow made president? His attempts to preserve liberty and honor would be met with hoots of derision by the media. It would be like making him president of the monkey cage at the zoo. Eloquent speeches have little effect when your audience is crapping in their hands and flinging it at you. In the end he would be hounded out of office for his insensitivity to the historically disadvantaged.
Consequently, even if the Democrats manage to lose, we will be left with a "moderate" who will advance their agenda, just slightly more slowly.

I just want to tell you that the Cathedral of Our Lady of the Assumption [in San Francisco], in which I am still a registered parishioner, has many disturbing symbols: The most visible is a giant Satanic Cross that stands above the ceiling.
It is made of modern art stained glass. This Satanic Cross is also known as the "Protestant Cross", a perfect "+" (plus) sign. The satanists claim that the "+" shaped cross represents the four elements of the universe which are air, earth, water, and fire, with the spreading in the four directions of the arms of the Cross being to receive the four said elements. The satanists thus claim that Christianity stole "their Cross".
Naturally, there is no permanent Crucifix above the sanctuary, but a mere modern cross hanging by wires, suggesting that Jesus Christ Our Lord was just a dream, an invention, or as the satanists say: a "concept".
In all, we have a gigantic satanic symbol in the cathedral that is the head of seven dioceses spreading from Fresno, CA, to the Oregon border, and going as far East as the State of Utah.
One more, less visible, but more shocking symbol of this cathedral, is a bronze that represents the Visitation. The bronze shows the Virgin Mary bare foot and pregnant, serving St Elizabeth and Zachary. Zachary reads an obvious sacred book, and St. Elizabeth looks at the belly of Mary. Above by the window are doves looking at the whole scene. One unavoidable detail of this bronze represents a matrimonial bed, and more ironically, of the queen-size.
The symbol of this bronze is that it represents a ménage-à-trois, an unspeakable heresy that insinuate to the public that the Blessed Virgin Mary was made pregnant, not by the Holy Ghost, but by Zachary. The suggestion that Mary was made pregnant by the father of St John the Baptist, and thus that Jesus and John were half-brothers is naturally satanist, but also in line with the Koran of the Mohammedans.

[Rabbi Waskow:
"Would you also suggest I keep my long Jewish nose out of some Catholic priests' rape of Catholic children and some Catholic bishops' protection of those priests from the law, because I'm not a Catholic?"
Since you are interested in the subject of rape, I hope you are following the unbelievable explosion of child rape in the Orthodox Jewish community and the intimidation—by family members—of victims. The pressure put on the D.A. to deep six these rapes is sickening. You need to do something about this epidemic right now. Suggestion: follow the reforms of the Catholic Church and you won't have these problems.
Ed Koch, my friend, once said that Jews had better not make enemies of their Catholic friends since they have so few of them. Think about that the next time you feel compelled to attack my religion.

[Panetta] said this, "We are people with different values." We'll let's talk about different values. When I came to Wisconsin way back in the 50's, there was a story running around about a guy named Ed Gein who was a grave robber and his values meant that he would rob graves and corpses and the things that came out of the—well I don't want to go further into that story—except it was you know it was his values after all. I mean what's wrong with having values like that? Then some years ago ten blocks up the street from where we're sitting right now was Jeffrey Dahmer, whose values were along the same line homosexuality but in addition to that, literally the cannibalizing and killing of human beings, dismembering their bodies and all kinds of weird stuff. But that after all we have diversity, right? We have different values.
Then of course we have people who have different values even in different venues. There are those whose values mean it's very desirable and their own desire to molest children. We call them pedophiles. Because it's a moral behavior or immoral behavior if properly defined. Its molestation but that happens to be their set of values and how dare we say anything about that. And then of course I don't go from the sublime to the ridiculous here, but bestiality. Bestiality!
I mean this this is vile behavior. God says this stuff is an abomination and is sin, but of course if we no longer have a moral compass and we no longer have a God, we have a whole bunch of them and we can sit here and look at leadership, the highest leadership now in our country, that has literally voted for and has the legend has it the allegations has it that in his previous history, there are reports out even on YouTube of people who claimed to have engaged in this type of behavior with the President of the United States. These are allegations but they are out there.
When I when I think of what is happening here folks, when I see the moral fabric of our country literally in flames; how do you define morality? I mentioned the allegations that had been circulating about the past of even our President. And again, those are allegations out there. You can even go to YouTube and there are videos of those who have claimed to engage with certain.

Mefferd: You had talked about the necessity of repealing the Religious Land Use and Institutionalized Persons Act, I guess this is what Holder is using to pressure this Virginia board of supervisors to approve this mega-mosque, what is this Act and why is it necessary?
Geller: It's not necessary, frankly. I urge the repeal of this Act. I'm not sure who it was, I could have it wrong, I don't know if it was Orrin Hatch, this is not a finger pointing kind of a thing, it's more 'the road to Hell is paved with good intentions.' It was unnecessary, it was an idea that there should be no religious persecution of houses of worship and so on and so forth, and that was all well and good, but it's become a weapon in which to club small towns and cities.
Look, no one is saying that you can't build a mosque, even with the Ground Zero Mosque; there are hundreds of mosques in New York City, we know there are thousands of mosques nationwide, but these giant structures, they completely change the complexion of a town. It could be a small town, residential. I'm telling you I have seen it time and time again, irrecognizable three to five years later. The call to prayer, the parking, hundreds of people. Again, there is an element of dishonesty here because as you know in Islam they got on their knees so you don't count a chair with that. But it's important because it's a way of circumventing the rules, you can't say 'it seats 500 or it seats whatever.' It's not just freedom of religion here in America, it's also freedom from religion here in America.

Let's be honest, it can't ever have sounded like a great premise for an ad – compare an unwanted computer to an unwanted puppy, have its owner neglect it, bash it about a bit, take it to a landfill with the intention of dumping it, before deciding it may be better to keep it after all.
According to the LA Times, Samsung's Don't Give Up on Puppy Love! ad for its SSD 840 solid state storage drive "featured computers that look like puppies, complete with ears and paws, getting smashed or thrown by their owners." Following a bunch of negative comments about the ad, the tech giant has seen fit to pull it from YouTube less than 24 hours after posting it.
The end of the ad showed a man contemplating crushing his computer at a landfill, before deciding to try it out with Samsung's solid state drive. As you might expect, the computer is given a new lease of life and the "puppy computer" and its owner are once again the best of buddies.
The Korean tech company appeared to get cold feet about the ad when it noticed it was getting more dislikes than likes. The comments were hardly favorable, either.
"Samsung, this was wrong, really, show it to a kid and see the reaction," one YouTube user wrote. "Come on, how could you? did you see the face of the yellow puppy as it was bashed? oh COME ON."
Another commenter wrote, "I'm actually a bit emotionally disturbed after viewing the early scenes of the ad. I'm an animal lover and have a number of pets at home and this brings up a very strong emotional reaction from me."
"Samsung's ad agency should quit smoking this bad stuff. Seriously, WTF," wrote another.
The company behind the ad, London-based video agency The Viral Factory, claims on its website to "create engaging online content that people like" and which makes "brands and consumers happy."
However, Viral Factory creative Alex Micu told Cnet, "We've made the decision to make the video private because it was clearly upsetting some people."
If you managed to see the ad before it was pulled, can you understand the negative reaction it received, or do you think some viewers were overreacting?

"Remove the fear of failure and amazing things can happen."
While I can't tell you with certainty who uttered those 10 words, they've been burned into my mind since I heard them for the first time many years ago. And why not? For someone like me – a serial entrepreneur – they continue to unleash an endless choice of opportunities. They should be able to do the same for any entrepreneur – if applied as I'm about to suggest.
I know of two ways to permanently remove all fear of failure. The first is as old as time itself. It's neat, clean and simple. Avoid all risks. Dare nothing. Attempt nothing. Accomplish nothing.
Over the years, I've continued to put the finishing touches on a process that for me has become a more effective – thought perhaps unusual – way of eliminating my fear of failure. I'm not sure my way is the best way, or that it's quite ready to share with the world, but I share it with you here in the hope you find some value in the process – or can make it more effective for your own use.
What I know for sure is the process has worked – and continues to work – for me and for the clients who rely on me for my advice as their marketing and management consultant, as well as for the individuals I work with as their business coach. Check it out. Give it a try. You have absolutely nothing to lose, a great deal to gain.
The process begins with forever eliminating the word "no" as a possible answer to a basic question most people ask, consciously or unconsciously, when faced with a challenge: "Can I [or we] do it?" The traditional answers are either "yes" or "no." Eliminating "no" requires asking a somewhat different but closely related question: "How many ways can I [or we] accomplish the task?"
By asking that question, neither "yes" nor "no" are appropriate responses any longer. While "yes" didn't always assure a task would be doable, "no" virtually assured it could not be accomplished. Because you have eliminated "no" as a possible answer, the opportunities you will unleash by asking – and answering – that slightly different question become almost endless.
Next, follow that question with a second: "Of the possible alternatives I [or we] have identified, which is most likely to work best?" Again, by asking this question, you make it impossible for "no" to be an answer. Once you've selected your most promising alternative, tried it and documented its results – good or bad – consider also testing and documenting your remaining alternatives. They can often surprise you.
The third and final question you want to ask in what I refer to as my "eliminate-the-no process" is: "How many ways can I (or we) improve those results?"
By asking and responding to these three basic questions in sequence – 1. How many ways can I [or we] accomplish…? 2. Which works best…? and 3. How can I [or we] improve results…? – you essentially remove your fear failure because "no" with its virtual certainty of failure has been eliminated as a possible response to all three questions.
The process produces consistent results on three very key levels: 1. The possibility of "no" as an answer to your challenge – virtually any challenge you face – is gone forever; 2. Those "amazing things" mentioned earlier, the opportunities you can create, are all but unlimited, and; 3. Perhaps the most rewarding side-effect is after you've used the process for even a short time you begin to apply it almost unconsciously – and with surprising results – to your normal daily activities.

200 Students Admit To 'Cheating' On Exam... But Bigger Question Is If It Was Really Cheating Or Studying
from the wait-a-second... dept
The answer to that first one surprised me. The "cheating" was that students got their hands on the textbook publisher's "testbank" of questions. Many publishers have a testbank that professors can use as sample test questions. But watching Quinn's video, it became clear that in accusing his students of "cheating" he was really admitting that he wasn't actually writing his own tests, but merely pulling questions from a testbank. That struck me as odd -- and I wasn't really sure that what the students did should count as cheating. Taking "sample tests" is a very good way to learn material, and going through a testbank is a good way to practice "sample" questions. It seemed like the bigger issue wasn't what the students did... but what the professor did.
In looking around, it looks like a lot of the students agree. They're saying that the real issue is that Prof. Quinn simply copied questions from the publisher, rather than actually recreating his own test, and noting that this seems like a massive double standard. The professor is allowed to just copy questions from others for his tests? In fact, some of the students have put together a video pointing out that, at the beginning of the year, Prof. Quinn claimed that he had written the test questions himself. As the article notes:
Can the UCF students be blamed for using all the available tools to study for the test? How were the students to know that Quinn would take his questions from the test bank, when he explicitly said that professors do not do so any more? Moreover, why did Quinn tell his students that he is the one who creates the mid-term and final exams, when in fact it wasn't so?The students have put together a video pointing out where he said (in the first lecture) that he writes the questions himself:
We've seen plenty of stories over the years about professors trying to keep up with modern technology -- and I recognize that it's difficult to keep creating new exams for classes. But in this case, it looks like Prof. Quinn barely created anything at all. He just pulled questions from a source that the students had access to as well and copied them verbatim. It would seem that, even if you think the students did wrong here, the Professor was equally negligent. Will he have to sit through an ethics class too?

You are currently browsing the tag archive for the 'venipuncture' tag.
This is a short, but vital, post. If you're anything like me, you've had more than your lifetime's share of needle sticks. Chronic pain / illness patients get a lot of blood drawn, right? Well, I've been getting blood drawn at my family practice doc's office for the last few years. But the last time one of their nurses drew my blood, I had a 3″ x 2″ bruise AND a huge lump! If that wasn't enough, I actually had a needle scratch near the site too. Clearly, this nurse was NOT skilled at venipuncture. And the lump? It was there because she not only punctured my vein as she entered, but then kept on going and punctured the other side of the vein too.
This was of course completely unacceptable. I called the doc's office to let them know (kindly) that this particular nurse had been sorely lacking in skills. And remind them that it's especially unacceptable on a patient who is immunosuppressed. They did apologize, and suggested that I request a different nurse the next time. Yup … you bet!
Instead, I decided to do what I had done some years ago. I decided to make friends with some people who do nothing but venipuncture – at a local diagnostic lab location. I chose Quest Diagnostics because they had been processing the blood from the doctor anyway. So I assumed (rightly) that my health insurance would cover that lab. And let me tell you, this was the right choice!
The lab tech was fantastic! Friendly, professional, no waiting, and most of all … really, really skilled at venipuncture. The bruise is only the size of a pencil eraser, if that! Minimal pain and maximum patient satisfaction. Definitely worth the switch!

|Attention: DocWiki has reached EOL and will be decommissioned January 25, 2019.
Cisco ACE 4700 Series Appliance Quick Start Guide, Release A3(1.0) -- Configuring Role-Based Access Control
From DocWiki
This section describes how to configure role-based access control (RBAC) on the Cisco 4700 Series Application Control Engine (ACE) appliance.
After reading this section, you should have a basic understanding of how the ACE appliance provides security administration by using RBAC and how to configure a server maintenance user with permission to access a subset of your network.
One of the most challenging problems in managing large networks is the complexity of security administration. The ACE appliance allows you to determine the commands and resources available to each user through RBAC. In RBAC, users are associated with domains and roles.
A domain is a collection of physical and virtual network resources such as real servers and virtual servers.
User roles determine a user's privileges, such as the commands that the user can enter and the actions the user can perform in a particular context. The ACE provides a number of predefined roles. In addition, administrators in any context can define new roles.
The ACE provides the following predefined roles, which you cannot delete or modify:
- Admin—If created in the Admin context, has complete access to, and control over, all contexts, domains, roles, users, resources, and objects in the entire ACE. If created in a user context, gives a user complete access to and control over all policies, roles, domains, server farms, real servers, and other objects in that context.
- Network Admin—Has complete access to and control over the following features:
- - Interfaces
- - Routing
- - Connection parameters
- - Network Address Translation (NAT)
- - VIPs
- - Copy configurations
- - changeto command
- Network-Monitor—Has access to all show commands and to the changeto command. If you do not explicitly assign a role to a user with the username command, this is the default role.
- Security-Admin—Has complete access to and control over the following security-related features within a context:
- - ACLs
- - Application inspection
- - Connection parameters
- - Interfaces
- - Authentication, authorization, and accounting (AAA)
- - Copy configurations
- - changeto command
- Server-Appln-Maintenance—Has complete access to and control over the following features:
- - Real servers
- - Server farms
- - Load balancing
- - Copy configurations
- - changeto command
- Server-Maintenance—Can perform real server maintenance, monitoring, and debugging for the following features:
- - Real servers—Modify permission
- - Server farms—Debug permission
- - VIPs—Debug permission
- - Probes—Debug permission
- - Load balancing—Debug permission
- - changeto command—Create permission
- SLB-Admin—Has complete access to and control over the following ACE features within a context:
- - Real servers
- - Server farms
- - VIPs
- - Probes
- - Load balancing (Layer 3/4 and Layer 7)
- - Interfaces
- - Copy configurations
- - changeto command
- SSL-Admin—Can administer all SSL features:
- - SSL—Create permission
- - PKI—Create permission
- - Interfaces—Modify permission
- - Copy configurations—Create permission
- - changeto command—Create permission
You can create a user and assign them privileges through RBAC as follows:
1. Create a domain and choose network resources for the domain.
2. Create a user and associate the user with the following:
- A role (predefined or custom)
- A domain
This section describes how to create a domain and a user, and how to associate the user with a predefined role and the new domain. For more information on predefined roles and how to define a custom role, see
Cisco ACE 4700 Series Appliance Virtualization Configuration Guide.
To create a domain and a user, you can use either the ACE Device Manager GUI or the CLI.
Configuring RBAC Using the Device Manager GUI
In this procedure, you use the GUI to create a domain that includes the user context that you created in Creating a Virtual Context and then create a server maintenance user, user1, to manage those servers. Configure this RBAC setup using the GUI by following these steps:
1. Choose VC_web.
2. Choose Admin > Role-Based Access Control > Domains. The Domains pane appears (Figure 1).
- Figure 1 Domains Pane
3. Click Add to add a new domain. The New Domain window appears (Figure 2).
- Figure 2 Domains Window
4. Enter Domain1 for the Domain Name.
5. Select All Objects.
6. Click Deploy Now to create a domain that includes all objects in context VC_web.
7. Choose Role-Based Access Control > Users to create a user. The Users pane appears (Figure 3).
- Figure 3 Users Pane
8. Click Add. The User window appears (Figure 4).
- Figure 4 Users Window
9. Enter the following user attributes. Leave the remaining attributes blank or with the default values.
- User Name: user1
- Password: MYPASSWORD
- Confirm: MYPASSWORD
- Role: Server-Maintenance
10. Choose Domain1 and click the right-arrow button. Domain1 is moved to the Selected Items list.
11. Choose default-domain and click the left-arrow button. Default-domain is removed from the Selected Items list.
12. Associate the new user user1 with the role Server-Maintenance and the domain Domain1 by clicking Deploy Now. The new user is added to the Users pane (Figure 5).
- Figure 5 Users Pane with user1 Added
Configuring RBAC Using the CLI
Configure RBAC using the CLI by following these steps:
1. Verify that you are operating in the desired context by checking the CLI prompt. If necessary, change to the correct context.
- host1/Admin# changeto VC_web
- host1/VC_web#
2. Enter configuration mode.
- host1/VC_web# Config
- host1/VC_web(config)#
3. Create a domain for the context.
- host1/VC_web(config)# domain Domain1
- host1/VC_web(config-domain)#
4. Allocate all objects in the VC_web context to the domain.
- host1/VC_web(config-domain)# add-object all
- host1/VC_web(config-domain)# exit
- host1/VC_web(config)#
5. Configure new user user1, and assign the predefined role TECHNICIAN and the domain Domain1 to the user.
- host1/VC_web(config)# username user1 password 5 MYPASSWORD role TECHNICIAN domain Domain1
- Note The parameter 5 for password is for an MD5-hashed strong encryption password. Use 0 for a clear text password.
- host1/VC_web(config)# exit
6. Display the user and domain configurations.
- host1/VC_web# show running-config role
- host1/VC_web# show running-config domain
In this section, you have created a user to perform a limited number of functions on a subset of your network. Next, you will create a virtual server for server load balancing.

We can argue over whether change is good or bad, but it is inevitable. Who could have seen the collapse of the Soviet Union or the recent events in the Arab world? The uneasy balance between Israel and her neighbors is about to collapse now that we so eagerly wanted to "liberate" Egypt and other countries. Our memory is astonishingly short when it comes to previous "freedom" and "democracy" campaigns. To our unpleasant surprise Egyptians want to discontinue their peace agreement with the Jewish State, and worse yet, want to become friends with Hamas and Iran. I don't think too many freedom advocates saw that development coming. The Libyans are killing each other, Yemen and Syria are in a messy situation which will most likely benefit militant radicals. In Marrakesh, Morocco, the bombing of a popular tourist cafe has all the trademarks of Al-Qaeda. Germany just arrested three bomb makers trained by the same organization. I can see bloody times ahead. Is another global war in the works? Nature has her ways of shrinking any unsustainable overpopulation, even in seemingly cruel ways.
There are many colleagues of mine who stubbornly expect the world of the classical arts to remain the same as it has been for a number of decades. Yet this is but a fantasy, based on their dreams, not on facts. My father will reach the milestone of a 100 years in a few weeks. In his youth he found a popular area of making music: playing for silent movies. He was the violinist in a piano trio, performing in the shallow pit in front of the screen. Movies were becoming very popular and the field seemed like a great way of expressing one's musical talent and making money at the same time. In America, improvising a live "soundtrack" was usually left to an organist, some of whom were incredible in their skills. Well, the talkies arrived and the seemingly lucrative careers for these musicians came to a screeching halt. My dad kept up his playing but started to conduct an orchestra instead, just for the love of music.
I myself grew up in the time of reel-to-reel tape recorders and became quite good in recording not only my own performances but others as well. This was the pre-transistor era and changing a vacuum tube was a common event. Microphones were rather large and connecting cables had to be double-shielded to eliminate any electronic noise. Soldering wires to the tight spaces of a European three- or five-prong DIN plugs made me burn my fingertips more times than I can count. Editing recordings required skill and I became quick with splicing the tape at a 45-degree angle and attaching it to another piece with special white tape. This all seems old-fashioned now, but it is a part of the past I miss today. If someone had told me all this knowledge was going to be obsolete in a few years, I would have laughed.
Not long ago I was reading an article in the leading Helsinki daily, lamenting the fact that orchestras in my native country have trouble attracting qualified Finnish instrumentalists and have to hire foreigners instead. It isn't that there is a shortage of music education as just about every town has a publicly sponsored music school. On the college or professional level schooling is completely free and at least until now student are actually given a stipend for their living expenses. Playing in an orchestra is not thought of as a glamorous occupation, and unlike here, the musicians think of themselves as musical civic employees, not artists. As salary is tied to the common pay scale structure system, it usually makes no difference if one teaches or plays in an orchestra. At least when I was younger, I couldn't call myself a "violin artist" unless I performed regularly as a soloist or recitalist. The country has its own "soloist association" which I think I'm still a member of.
In the U.S. orchestral playing wasn't that greatly valued either as it seldom gave a musician enough of an income. Seasons were short and working hours lousy. Perhaps in certain large cities with a long tradition of orchestral music matters were better, but those would have been few. Then something happened after WWII and with the country's increased wealth it became fashionable to donate large sums of money to education and arts institutions. Cities felt a need to build mega-halls and have large orchestras to fill the stages. At the same time interest in smaller groups, chamber music and recitals waned. As the donors aged and became increasingly hard of hearing, perhaps a deafening level of brass and percussion was needed to prevent their hearing aids from whistling. Musicians' appetite for larger and larger salaries grew and soon the financial balance became impossible to sustain; the orchestra bubble began to burst, something we are witnessing now. Philanthropy continues, of course, but instead of entertainment, it is focused on global health and such issues.
Glancing through online reader comments, musicians seem to receive little sympathy for their salary and other demands. It is quite easy to discover which opinions were written by the orchestral musicians themselves or their friends. The ordinary people are far more concerned about their own employment or lack of, not to mention health care and education. State universities are increasingly taking in out-of-state students because they can be milked for full private school level tuition, no matter how low they have scored. In Seattle straight A students, even class valedictorians, haven't been admitted to our #1 school, University of Washington. The school openly admits that it prefers outsiders as it sorely lacks funds. If we as a society expect every high school graduate to continue in college, we have to make it accessible and financially realistic. Of course, one could make an argument that attending college should be a privilege for the deserving, not an automatic right.
Back home a rather significant event took place. In the recent parliamentary election a formerly small party known as True Finns scored a tremendous victory. Many of my countrymen have been horrified as they see this relatively anti-EU party as a big step back. Even foreign media calls the election a major shift to the extreme right. I'm not so sure about it. Young voters, usually uninterested in politics, perceive them as a worker's party (wouldn't that qualify them as extreme left?) which wants to preserve Finnish values and not bail out other EU countries that are on the brink of collapse because of fiscal corruption. My brother, an astute observer whose political views hardly match those of the country's conservatives, says it is a good thing for the country to have so many new faces in the new Parliament, most belonging to ordinary men and women who campaigned with ideas, not with big budgets. People have spoken and now we must listen to what they have to say, whether we agree with the message or not.
It must be spring as I smell all kinds of changes in the air.

Indy 500-winning car designer A.J. Watson dies
INDIANAPOLIS (AP) A.J. Watson, a mechanic and designer who played a key role in several Indianapolis 500 victories in the 1950s and '60s, died Monday at age 90.
Indianapolis Motor Speedway officials confirmed the death, citing members of Watson's family. Speedway President Doug Boles called Watson one of the most innovative mechanics and car builders in the track's 105-year history.
Watson designed and built roadsters in the 1960s – one of which A.J. Foyt drove to the second of his four Indy wins. Watson was the chief mechanic on four cars that reached Indy's Victory Lane between 1955 and 1962, three of which he built. Watson also constructed three other Indy-winning cars in the `60s.
Foyt said he had seen Watson last week and it was "hard to believe he's gone."

CBS Local – For the fourth time in six years, Washington D.C. has been found to be the most literate city in the country, according to a study conducted by Central Connecticut State University.
Behind D.C. came Seattle in second, followed by Minneapolis in third. Just outside the medal stand is Atlanta in fourth, trailed by San Francisco, Pittsburgh and Portland. Rounding out the top ten is Cincinnati, St. Paul and Boston.
"This set of factors measures people's use of their literacy and thus presents a large-scale portrait of our nation's cultural vitality," Jack Miller, president emeritus of Central Connecticut State University, who conducts the study.

Three young heirs, imprisoned by an unscrupulous uncle, escaped—to the sea, to the streets, to faraway battle— awaiting the day when they would return to reclaim their birthright . . .

After her father's death, Evelyn Chambers never imagined she would be sold to the highest bidder, yet circumstances give her little choice but to accept the lord's indecent proposal. Rafe is wealthy, as well as ruthless. Yet his coldness belies deep passion and deeper secrets. If she must be his, Evelyn intends to lay bare everything the Lord of Pembrook is hiding. But dark discoveries threaten to destroy them both until unexpected love leads the last lost lord home . . .

Pete Brand needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 76 designs submitted by 22 freelance designers.
Attention to Detail
I am an entrepreneur. I work with individuals who are starting companies and have developed a process which virtually guarantees their success. I am NOT a designer and need to find a good designer that I can turn to in times of need.
Attention to Detail is a high end auto detailing company. Our target audience is executives and affluent individuals. The service will be very meticulous and cater to the egos of these high achievers. We will pick up the car from their office and return it before the end of the day looking better than brand new.
We need to communicate this high level of service with a sophisticated, classy logo.
I would like to see how you see the logo working on business cards, letterhead, and possibly shirts.
I depend on your for the creativity so I'll stop here and give you as blank of a slate as possible.
