This is a general warning for my friends in the paranormal community. There are deceivers in your midst.
It has of course happened before, I have faced them numerous times. But recently there seems to be a rather large influx of Fundamental Christians who are representing themselves as Paranormal Investigators with advanced training in Demonology. Many of them have internet radio shows and blogs that portray them as paranormal experts; they come into paranormal social media circles innocently enough, but within a few months they become aggressive and dogmatic. Many times they are accusatory or bullying. Their main reason for claiming to be a Paranormal Investigator is to be able to proselytize and do ham fisted bible thumping.
The only problem is that most in this new group of "Paranormal Evangelists" have no biblical understanding or training, and they believe their half cocked assumptions of Scripture are the one and only truth. Additionally they have phony credentials, educational degrees and claims of experience that they flaunt as authentic.
They are in essence a cult in the making.
Recently I have had a few run in's with these "Paranormal Evangelists" within one month, which is quite unusual outside of reader commentary. So it makes me feel as if something is going on. Is this a new movement within fundamental Christianity or just a bunch of messed up an under educated self appointed prophets? I'll explain my recent run in's with the signs that they might actually be a Christian cult in the making...
The first sign that they are indeed a cult is their rabid and closed minded attempts at proselytism.
Now I am a Christian minister and I myself have done a fair bit of evangelism. I ministered to the gangs of Brooklyn's Sunset Park for 4 years in the mid 1980's, was a short term Missionary and in my pastoral experience I have done a fair share of altar calls. I do not guilt any believer of any faith when they try to share their beliefs in order to spread the love and peace that they may have found in their faith. But I have found that in this post-Christian age of rationality the best way anyone can share their faith is to be authentic. To be a friend and act out your faith. To walk in love and actually care. People have heard the words, and have seen people say one thing and do another for centuries. In this disconnected spam and con riddled 21st century people want something that is REAL. They want to see the faith in action, to know that what you believe actually works. So I do not fault anyone for wanting to share their personal beliefs or faith. Evangelism is literally suppose to be a message of "Good News" after all.
This new breed of "Paranormal Evangelists" do not bring good news. Instead of earning the respect of others in order to share such an intimate thing as their faith, they wear their words of dogma as a badge of honor and try to give it to you by force. What is even worse, they attack any views contrary to their own in the face of reason. It doesn't matter if the viewpoint is not an essential part of Christian faith and merely an opinion; if you disagree with them at any point, you are labeled a virtual heretic and a "false teacher".
I ran into a group of these on a Facebook group where I am one of a group of administrators. A grandmother had posted a comment that her grandson was using a phrase that her late grandfather had always said, "Whee Doggies". Her grandfather had died years before. I commented that perhaps the young boy had heard this on a television cartoon show since the old Warner Brothers cartoons have had a recent resurgence and this is a saying that the character Yosemite Sam often says. The woman responded:
" No he does not watch old Bugs Bunny shows, he has lived with me since birth, so I know his habits quite well. I am a Lutheran. After my grandpa had died, he woke my grandma up in the middle of the night to tell her the refrigerator was going to catch fire. Sure enough, she got up and it burned her hand when she touched it. Grandma said it was so hot, that it certainly would have caught fire. I believe that grandpa loved us all so much, that he still shows us at times "
one of these "Deceptive Demonologists" immediately replied,
" Cindy, according to the Word of God, your grandpa cannot appear again as a spirit in the physical realm once he has passed into eternity. This a deceiving spirit appearing as your grandpa to lead you astray. "
and another person also agreed,
" Have to agree with ****, Sorry guys. To me and my understanding of the Bible (and this is a Christian study group) and I hope I don't offend anyone's belief here, but any ghostly figure masquerading as a dead loved one is nothing more than a demon to make you believe in an New Age Spiritual Afterlife, Demons are very clever and knowledgeable and can and will deceive many of the elite even passing on knowledgeable things that only certain family members would know through ghosts or spirits of dead loved ones or even mediums or psychics. As **** says its all to lead you astray. "
Now nowhere in Scripture does it say that if you have a vision of departed loved one appear to save an entire family from a horrible death you should see that as the manifestation of a deceiving spirit. So of course I replied that Scripture is very vague about ghosts and it appears that not all ghosts are demonic, as in 1 Samuel God sometimes uses the spirits of the deceased for his purpose because He is well..GOD. After this these two went totally crazy from basically calling me a heretic to accusing this grandmother of necromancy. they showed a basic biblical knowledge of Fundamental Christianity, but not a knowledge of traditional Biblical Theology nor the willingness to try to even understand it. A few days later another one of their group attacked another woman and I once again came forward in defense and was assaulted by an insane rant by a fledgling Christian author whose book is about a "REAL" haunted house experience. The oddest one of his assaults was the assumption that I was a woman and I have no right to talk about scripture according to the Bible (alrighty then!) After complaints he had to be banned from the group for harassment.
After this the pastor emeritus of our church received a series of letters from one of these men that tried to persuade the church as to my pastoral status. Our pastor emeritus of course sent these along to me and played along, trying to see where this guy was coming from. He claimed that I was attacking them because they, as evangelists, were trying to share Christ with others (of course since our pastor emeritus has sat through quite a few of my sermons he knew that was a distortion of truth at best).
Of course my church knows me well and all this gentleman did was showcase his own personal problems.
But one of the most interesting assertions that he proposed in one of these letters and on his online disagreement with me was that I was arrogant by correcting him on the basis of my Theological education in College and Seminary. Everyone can interpret Scripture on his own because according to the Bible the Holy Spirit guides the individual to all truth. This point of his leads me to the next clue that this is a burgeoning cult:
They hold to a dogmatic and exclusive knowledge given to them directly by God.
When I politely corrected them they described it as a "viscous assault". That threw up a red flag. I have observed other of these like minded "evangelists" talk about the witness of the Holy Spirit to their dogma. While the tenants of their dogma is not directly referenced in scripture. It is at best a "doubtful issue" not directly talked about in the Bible. While the Bible does speak of unclean spirits (Matt 3:11; 12:43, Acts 8:7 et al) it does speak of ghosts or spirits in a vague generality with neutral association. Also in 1 Samuel 28 we see the actual spirit of Samuel the prophet brought forth after his death by God to pronounce judgement against King Saul. Therefore all spirits are not evil and God can bring forth a deceased person' spirit for His own purpose. When confronted with this evidence they became violent and accusatory instead of trying to make a rational argument based on the assertions. They accused those who did not agree with them as holding to a "different gospel", a code word for heretic. They resorted to personal attacks and attempts at discrediting the individuals instead of discussing the questions at hand. This is the hallmark of a cult. To have authority the cult leaders do not attempt a logical debate, they attack the people questioning their doctrine and therefore discard the questions as irrelevant due to the nefarious nature of the person raising the issues. Jim Jones did it (and at the beginning he looked very fundamental), Heaven's Gate did it, as do other cults.
In a cult you maintain authority by attacking detractors, just as dictators silence their opposition in a quest for absolute domination.
Another sign that this is a cult is that this group uses deception and lies in order to further their goals.
A few months ago I noticed a pastor making the rounds on social media promoting his $150 a session demonology seminars. I was curious because I had never heard of him before, and many times I have scoured the country trying to find individuals who could point to trained and legitimate local help when it comes to demonic oppression and supposed possession. So I did a little investigation, this person claimed to be a pastor but his church had no address, it only had a post office box (RED FLAG 1). It had no denominational affiliation and did not state that it was an independent church ( RED FLAG 2). Suddenly he began to promote himself as having a Doctor of Divinity and a Doctor of Theology without citing the source of his degrees (RED FLAG 3). After some more digging on the web I found that Pastor Whammo (his last name is that of a famous flying Whammo product we all know and love) received these degrees from the Universal Life Church, which issues non accredited degrees for a nominal fee. Now while I have no problem with people exercising their constitutional right to religion by obtaining an ordination from some of these sites, a degree is something else altogether. People spend much time and money to get real doctorates and sometimes sacrifice quite a lot for this education. To buy a phony degree and flaunt it as if it is authentic is a lie and deceptive. I don't know about you, but I have a problem with an exorcist who lies and deceives in order to gain credibility. It is an oxymoron. I began to suspect that this "Demonologist" was a fraud and con artist. My suspicions were validated when I came across a local Georgian community forum that focused on Pastor Whammo and his less than stellar history in his community. It turns out he was a politician that had constantly switched affiliation in order to get elected. He was had ties to a pyramid scheme in which his associates faced felony indictments for theft. Once he claimed to be a pastor, many in his community and on this forum questioned his claims to be a pastor; he said that he was ordained years prior. But he constantly refused to produced any documents that backed up his claims. Lastly prior to his sudden appearance on the scene as a demonologist and exorcist he had no history in any of the areas in which he claimed expertise.
He was a con artist.
There are many like this in the Christian church, I have met people who claim to be Evangelists after speaking at a few men's breakfasts. While they claim to be doing this "ministry" for the betterment of mankind they have ulterior motives.
Which leads to the last sign that this unaffiliated group is a cult: they are motivated by money.
Go to any phony ministry's website and you will see one thing that is common to all of them. They ask for money. Be it a PayPal donation button or a paragraph plea with a P.O.Box where you can send a check, they all want your cash. If they were legitimate religious minister they would have a source of funding through their congregation or denomination. That they have to ask the general public for donations to continue their "ministry" speaks volumes. Like the disgraced televangelists of the past they prey on the unsuspecting and ignorant in order to enrich their coffers. Rather than relying on legitimate employment to support themselves (which many ministers of small congregations or independent churches do) they choose to deceive and manipulate the weak taking funds from those who can least afford to give.
Of course the church has had problems with false prophets from it's inception. Consider this from the early church document "The Sheperd of Herma" written in 100-10 A.D.
In the first place, that man who seemeth to have a spirit exalteth himself, and desireth to have a chief place, and straight-way he is impudent and shameless and talkative and conversant in many luxuries and in many other deceits and receiveth money for his prophesying, and if he receiveth not, he prophesieth not. Now can a divine Spirit receive money and prophesy? It is not possible for a prophet of God to do this, but the spirit of such prophets is earthly.
In the next place, it never approacheth an assembly of righteous men; but avoideth them, and cleaveth to the doubtful-minded and empty, and prophesieth to them in corners, and deceiveth them, speaking all things in emptiness to gratify their desires; for they too are empty whom it answereth. For the empty vessel placed together with the empty is not broken, but they agree one with the other.
But when he comes into an assembly full of righteous men who have a Spirit of deity, and intercession is made from them, that man is emptied, and the earthly spirit fleeth from him in fear, and that man is struck dumb and is altogether broken in pieces, being unable to utter a word.(1[43]:12 to 1[43]:14 translation by J.B.Lightfoot )
My friends, be wary of wolves in sheep's clothing. They do NOT represent the Christian community as a whole.
Until Next Time,
Pastor Swope

OTTAWA – Cash-strapped Parks Canada is stuck between a rock — or is that Rockies? — and a hard place.
The federal agency is currently consulting the public on a long list of proposed fee hikes for the country's national parks and historic sites, pointing out that the rates have been frozen since 2008 and costs are on the rise.
But at the same time as fees are going up, many services are in decline following $55 million in announced budget cuts and the resultant 600 jobs lost across the system.
Over the weekend, so-called "Occupy Winter" protesters gathered in some national parks across the country to demand a return of winter services that were abruptly shut down this year. Visitors are left to guide themselves at some historic sites, and visiting seasons have been shortened.
The agency is now looking to contract out some of its operations, including three hot springs in the Rockies and a golf course in Cape Breton.
"As Canadians, we own these parks, they're national treasures, and we need to ensure that the government really provides the appropriate resources to Parks Canada…so that protection is prioritized and it remains accessible to everybody," said Eric Hebert-Daly, national executive director of the Canadian Parks and Wilderness Society.
To make matters even more complicated, parliamentarians — including Conservatives — have been putting their own pressure on the agency after hearing from unhappy constituents.
In eastern Ontario, Parks Canada's proposal to substantially increase the user fees along the Rideau Canal and Trent-Severn Waterway was greeted with a backlash.
The agency has already backed down from its proposal only two weeks into the consultation, restoring the concept of a day pass or season's pass at more discounted rates.
"If you make it too expensive, people won't use it, and it'll be self-defeating in terms of raising more revenue," said Conservative MP Gord Brown, whose riding includes large swaths of the Rideau Canal.
"I'm happy to see that they've gone back to the drawing board and I and my colleagues along the Rideau and the Trent-Severn were hearing a lot from our constituents."
Andrew Campbell, vice-president of external relations and visitor experience at Parks Canada, said the agency was given the green light to increase fees as the economy began to rebound. Most of the increases are tied to the rate of inflation.
"We still believe that we have an excellent value, if you consider an adult pass to go in for a day into any of our national parks even with the increase will just be $10," he said, noting the current rate is $9.80.
"That's still a reasonable amount, and much less than plenty of other leisure activities that people can do for a day."
But the timing of the fee increases are also being questioned.
The Union of National Employees, which counts about 3,100 Parks Canada staff in its ranks, says it makes no sense to have slashed services and jobs, only to then turn around and start increasing fees.
"They didn't think it through at the time, they announced the cuts before they announced the possible revenue to offset the cuts, and one of the reasons it's so hot is that they didn't consult with anybody," said Eddie Kennedy, the union's national executive vice-president.
"They didn't go into any of these small communities, they didn't on a national scale or regional scale say, 'This is what we intend to do, what does the Canadian public think about it?' Now they're paying the price for it."

Although the motives remained unconfirmed in late year, the murders of Chhattisgarh's Umesh Rajput and Mumbai crime reporter Jyotirmoy Dey reminded colleagues of the risk of violence. India remained on CPJ's Impunity Index, a ranking of countries in which journalists are murdered regularly and authorities fail to solve the crimes. Violent clashes between insurgents and government forces in states such as Kashmir challenged reporters' ability to work. In a mid-year report, The Hoot, a media issues website, recorded nine journalist assaults between January and May, including four in Orissa, where industrialization and Maoists had each displaced local residents. Authorities retaliated against critical reporting with antistate charges: Two journalists were jailed for allegedly supporting rebels after they criticized the impact of anti-Maoist campaigns on civilians. Journalists who exposed police ineptitude and corruption faced jail time. Politicians and businessmen muzzled reporters with legal action, including defamation, which authorities failed to decriminalize. Internet penetration was relatively low but growing, prompting the government to pass regulations that could suppress online dissent.
Seven murders from the past decade remain unsolved, making India one of the worst countries in the world at combating deadly anti-press violence, CPJ's Impunity Index showed.
1. Iraq
2. Somalia
3. Philippines
4. Sri Lanka
5. Colombia
6. Afghanistan
7. Nepal
8. Mexico
9. Russia
10. Pakistan
11. Bangladesh
12. Brazil
13. India
Freelancer Lingaram Kodopi documented anti-Maoist violence by police in Chhattisgarh. Mumbai magazine editor Sudhir Dhawale criticized Chhattisgarh's anti-insurgent militia. Both journalists awaited trial in late year on retaliatory charges.
The state's historically poor press freedom record declined again after violence contesting Indian rule during the summer of 2010 brought tighter government restrictions.
A chokehold on coverage:
5,000: Subscribers to an SMS news service that were affected when a June 2010 government blockage was extended into 2011. Officials later reinstated non-journalistic SMS services.
5: Kashmir newspapers denied government advertising for "anti-national" riot coverage, India Today reported.
0: Journalists interviewed in February by the weekly Tehelka who said police had honored curfew passes allowing them to report during times of restricted movements.
5: Journalists covering protests who were assaulted or detained by authorities in August and November--Al-Jazeera contributor Showkat Shafi both times.
2: Journalists refused entry. U.S.-based Alternative Radio's David Barsamian, known for his analyses of Kashmir, was turned back at New Delhi airport; and Gautam Navlakha, editorial consultant of Economic and Political Weekly, was sent home to New Delhi from the summer capital, Srinagar.
In January, M. Veerappa Moily, minister of law, and in February, Ambika Soni, minister of information and broadcasting, promised journalists that decriminalization was forthcoming. It did not materialize in 2011.
Two U.S.-based news sites, Indymedia and IndyBay, were among those that Bangalore's Center for Internet and Society found had been blocked domestically in April. Critics said new regulations banning ill-defined "harmful" online content could increase censorship.

The regex command removes results that do not match the specified regular expression.
regex (<field>=<regex-expression> | <field>!=<regex-expression> | <regex-expression>)
Required arguments
- <regex-expression>
- Syntax: "<string>"
- Description: An unanchored regular expression. The regular expression must be a Perl Compatible Regular Expression supported by the PCRE library. Quotation marks are required.
Optional arguments
- <field>
- Syntax: <field>
- Description: Specify the field name from which to match the values against the regular expression.
- You can specify that the
regexcommand keeps results that match the expression by using <field>=<regex-expression>. To keep results that do not match, specify <field>!=<regex-expression>.
- Default:
regex command is a distributable streaming command. See Command types.
Use the
regex command to remove results that do not match the specified regular expression.
Use the
rex command to either extract fields using regular expression named groups, or replace or substitute characters in a field using sed expressions.
When you use regular expressions in searches, you need to be aware of how characters such as pipe ( | ) and backslash ( \ ) are handled. See SPL and regular expressions in the Search Manual.
For general information about regular expressions, see About Splunk regular expressions in the Knowledge Manager Manual.
Example 1: Keep only search results whose "_raw" field contains IP addresses in the non-routable class A (10.0.0.0/8). This example uses a negative lookbehind assertion at the beginning of the expression.
... | regex _raw="(?<!\d)10\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}\.\d{1,3}(?!\d)"
Example 2: Keep only the results that match a valid email address. For example, firstname.lastname@example.com.
...| regex email="/^([a-z0-9_\.-]+)@([\da-z\.-]+)\.([a-z\.]{2,6})$/"
The following table explains each part of the expression.
|Part of the expression
|Specifies to start at the beginning of the string.
|This is the first group in the expression. Specifies to match one or more lowercase letters, numbers, underscores, dots, or hyphens. The backslash ( \ ) character is used to escape the dot ( . ) character. The dot character is escaped, because a non-escaped dot matches any character. The plus ( + ) sign specifies to match from 1 to unlimited characters in this group. In this example this part of the expression matches buttercup in the email address firstname.lastname@example.com.
|Matches the at symbol.
|This is the second group in the expression. Specifies to match the domain name, which can be one or more lowercase letters, numbers, underscores, dots, or hyphens. This is followed by another escaped dot character. The plus ( + ) sign specifies to match from 1 to unlimited characters in this group. In this example this part of the expression matches example in the email address firstname.lastname@example.com.
|This is the third group. Specifies to match the top-level domain (TLD), which can be 2 to 6 letters or dots. This group matches all types of TLDs, such as
.edu, or
.asia. In this example it matches .com in the email address email@example.com.

Nbeuchat and Boopaljothi
Thank you for your question about the Example 1 expression that began with (?=!\d)
This is supposed to be a negative lookbehind assertion.
The correct expression should be (?<!\d).
I have changed the example and added a brief explanation.
In example 1, I believe the first part of the regex should be (negative lookbehind of a digit)
and not
The current regex means positive lookahead for an exclamation mark followed by a digit.
Is there a way to do KVP extraction inl-lined ("(?<_KEY_1>[a-z]+)=(?<_VAL_1>[a-z]+)") like it shows here:
In example 1 what does (?=!\d) this refer to?
In example 2 what does regex(?=expression refer to?
i know that -? refers zero or one dash but what does above statements refer
Woodcock - Thanks for your comment. The regular expression should be unanchored. I've updated the documentation.
You should mention whether the PCRE application is anchored or not.
how would one search for an expression containing a quote? i.e. How should we escape the quote character?
So you can't pass other regex options like case-insensitive like "/regex/i" (i for case-Insensitive)?
Is the regex in Example 1 wrong? I think the "(?=!\d)" should be "(?<!\d)" and the first full stop (.) should be escaped. Is that correct? (By the way, you might want to look at having "
Thanks for pointing that out, Daniel333. The "3" was a typo. We've fixed it.
Example 1 and 3. Where is 2?
the syntax indicates that regex can be used without specifiying field name, which I dont think is correct

Syntax

regex = | != |

I interperate the above as:
args to regex are:
field equals regex-expression OR field NOT equal to regex-expression OR regex-expression

is the syntax correct? if so why can I not do?:
regex

I get the following error message:
Error in 'SearchOperator:regex': Usage: regex (=|!=)
For case insensitivity use (?i) before an expression.
Case insensitive for the word cat....

[Cc][Aa][Tt]

will match cAt, CAT, cat, CaT ..... and onward with all permutations.
how to make it case insensitive?

Ghost Rider stuntman sues over motorbike crash
- Bang Showbiz
- 11 March 2013
Stuntman Michael 'Crazy Mike' Gaboff is suing the producers of 'Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance' for over $1 million in damages after a promotional stunt left him with life-threatening injuries
A stuntman is suing the producers of 'Ghost Rider: Spirit of Vengeance' for over $1 million in damages.
Michael 'Crazy Mike' Gaboff has brought a lawsuit against the bosses of the comic book film - which stars Nicolas Cage as the titular character - after a promotional stunt went wrong and left him with life-threatening injuries.
Gaboff was left with a broken back, collapsed lungs and second-degree burns after he drove a motorbike into a lake while on fire in an attempt to recreate the flaming skulled anti-hero's antics.
He claims producers Break Media, Sony Pictures and Next Point, Inc. were negligent in the execution of the stunt in April 2012 - which was organised to promote the DVD release of the movie - and his lawsuit states the producers showed "a conscious disregard of the safety of those observing the activity".
Gaboff was hospitalised for an extended period of time and incurred over $1 million worth of hospital bills due to his injuries.
Meanwhile, Cage has distanced himself from appearing in a third 'Ghost Rider' film.
The 49-year-old actor believes he is done with Johnny Blaze and his supernatural alter-ego but he believes a third movie could go ahead with a new lead actor.
Speaking about a 'Ghost Rider 3' movie with website Collider, comic book lover Cage said: "It's possible, but it won't be with me. I've said what I have to say. I don't want to say never ... anything's possible. But I doubt, highly, that I would be in a third instalment of that."

In 2013, Estonia added only 11MW and Lithuania 50MW. In the previous year the three countries between them added 160MW. Estonia-based Nelja Energia is the biggest wind-energy player in the Baltics, owning 223MW of installed capacity, more than a third of the region's total.
The region's support schemes guarantee stable cash flows to wind-farm operators. Estonia applies a feed-in-tariff that pays around EUR98.7/MWh.
However, starting in 2014, the government is introducing a contract for difference regime with a ceiling of EUR93/MWh. The new support scheme is waiting for approval by the European Commission. The subsidy paid to wind projects is subject to an annual production cap, which means only the first 600GWh of wind energy generated in the calendar year is eligible for support. Given that new projects will tap into the common 600GWh subsidy pool and all best locations in terms of wind resource and grid connectivity have been largely utilised, it is hard to see where new growth will come from.
Latvia's feed-in-tariff of EUR100/MWh is based on around 150MW of wind energy production quotas auctioned in the past. So far, only 60MW is online. The last auction was in 2010 and since then the government has frozen the distribution of new quotas. This translates to no working subsidy for new wind projects, and no new capacity can be expected until the new regulatory framework based on certificates, currently under preparation, is applied.
Lithuania's feed-in-tariff pays EUR 70/MWh. The country applied a tender for 210MW of new wind capacity last year, which resulted in the EUR 70/MWh price for 12 years. This capacity should come online within the next three years.

WASHINGTON — According to conventional wisdom, there's no surer way for a young congressman to destroy his career than delving into foreign policy. Voters don't care about it, the old hands say, and time spent on what's happening overseas is time squandered.
Democrat Adam Schiff may be the exception that proves the rule. Now in his third term, the Burbank congressman seems to spend more time on foreign affairs every year. Yet in each of his two reelection campaigns, he's held on to more than 60% of the vote.
Indeed, focusing on a foreign policy issue helped Schiff win his seat in 2000, defeating Republican incumbent James Rogan in what is still the most expensive House race ever. Since then, he has maintained and extended his interest, without apparent political cost.
To be sure, the foreign policy issue that Schiff rode to his first victory is one with exceptional appeal in his particular district — the charge that, between 1915 and 1923, rulers of the Ottoman Empire carried out a campaign of extermination that claimed about 1.6 million Armenian lives. California's 29th Congressional District is home to more Armenian American voters than any other in the state, and they have pressed to have the episode officially branded as genocide.
The present-day Turkish government denies genocide occurred, saying Armenian fatalities stemmed from attempts to quell civil unrest.
Using parliamentary maneuvers he honed in Los Angeles as a prosecutor and in Sacramento as a state senator, Schiff has rescued the issue from defeat at the hands of a Republican majority.
On June 8, he won a major concession from House leaders, who agreed for the first time in five years to vote on a bill in committee recognizing the genocide. Schiff won that pledge by attempting to amend the State Department authorization bill in two ways — one seeking a historic study of how genocide could be prevented and another seeking diplomacy to get Turkey to stop blockading another Council of Europe country, Armenia.
That prompted frantic efforts by Turkey's lobbyists — who include former House Speaker Bob Livingston (R-La.) — to cut a deal that would avoid embarrassing the Turkish prime minister, who was visiting Washington that day and paid a call on President Bush on June 10.
The play to an Armenian audience was one of the focal points of the 2000 congressional campaign in California's 29th District. Rogan took to punctuating his stump speeches with cries of Getzeh Hayeruh — "Long Live Armenia."
Schiff raised the ante by delivering a whole speech in Armenian, one syllable at a time.
Between them, the two candidates spent an estimated $15 million on the campaign. Schiff won with 53% of the vote. Ever since, he has taken the lead in the fight for recognition of the Armenian genocide and made himself a prominent Democratic voice on foreign affairs.
For years the Armenian issue has languished in Congress, stymied by vehement Turkish opposition and by the reluctance of American presidents to antagonize an important ally.
That hasn't stopped Schiff.
Last year, he spent hours in the parliamentarian's office crafting an amendment to the foreign aid bill that would pass parliamentary muster. The gambit worked — up to a point. The House voted to bar Turkey from using foreign aid funds to lobby against recognition of the genocide, which Armenian advocates took to be tacit recognition of their claim.
But then, under administration pressure not to upset Turkey, Speaker J. Dennis Hastert (R-Ill.) made sure the provision was removed early in the process. This year, Schiff capitalized on current strains between Washington and Turkey, which did not allow U.S. troops to cross its territory to invade Iraq.
More recently, American officials have chafed at Turkey's reluctance to let American military operations expand at Incirlik Air Base.
Schiff saw hopeful signs in February, when the U.S. ambassador to Armenia, John Evans, openly used the term genocide in a speech at UC Berkeley, and added "I think we, the U.S. government, owe fellow citizens a more frank and honest way of discussing this problem."
Schiff, born in Framingham, Mass., is the son of a Jewish clothing salesman who moved to California when Schiff was 9. His father is a Democrat and his mother is a Republican. "Maybe that's why I'm a moderate," he says.
Schiff ran for the Assembly in 1994 against Rogan and lost. But two years later he won a state Senate seat. He rose to chairman of the Senate Judiciary Committee and developed a reputation for thoughtful tenacity.
Though not a flamboyant personality — staffers joke about his lack of charisma — Schiff has continued to build a reputation as a skillful tactician, even as a Democrat in a Republican world.
Since House Republican leaders take an uncompromising attitude toward the Democratic minority, Schiff often can do little more than seek modifications to Republican bills. And he can sometimes needle GOP colleagues into what he sees as more balanced action.
In one Judiciary subcommittee, the chairman called five hearings on gay marriage. Schiff, outraged that the subcommittee did not hold a single hearing on the Abu Ghraib prison scandal, said, "Mr. Chairman, I don't think we should stop at five hearings. I know there are issues we could discuss like Abu Ghraib, but honestly I think we need more hearings on gay marriage."
The chairman called no further hearings on gay marriage.
Potentially more important than such skirmishing, Schiff is trying to help Democrats develop a longer-term vision on foreign affairs. He frequently appears on television defending Democratic positions against conservatives.
"When Fox News asks me how much credit Bush should get, I say that the spread of democracy has been a core Democratic value since Woodrow Wilson," Schiff said.
Schiff is carving out a position as a leader of a centrist Democratic national security bloc, a group he calls — in a deliberate parody of right-wing neo-conservatives — the neo-progressives.
He has organized a national security caucus and led efforts to prevent scientists from the former Soviet Union from spreading nuclear and biological secrets. "He's really emerging as one of the key leaders in the House on national security," said Will Marshall, who heads the moderate Democratic Leadership Forum.
"For a long time, particularly in the House, it has been a little lonely to be a Democrat who specializes in security. Members too often regarded it as the other party's issue. Adam sincerely believes the Democratic Party has to reassert its leadership on national security."
Emerging leader
Adam Schiff's wife's name is Eve. She apparently is not as amused by the coincidence as he is and resisted various Garden of Eden suggestions for their children's names, Alexa and Elijah.
At Stanford, Schiff majored in political science and pre-med. Accepted by medical and law schools, he chose Harvard Law, calculating that it would be a better launching pad to public service.
He clerked for a federal judge and spent six years in the U.S. attorney's office in Los Angeles.
At a park in Glendale, longtime Armenian backgammon players were shocked when Schiff challenged them to a game and won. It's a game he first played in junior high school.
As a California state senator, Schiff, a consistent supporter of the state's Armenian genocide resolution, won state funds for a documentary film on the subject. In Congress, when he arranged for a screening, one of the speakers told the crowd he wished "genocide deniers" had seen the film. From deep in the audience a voice rang out, "Oh, we're here, congressman, we're here."

... there is what may perhaps be called the method of optimism which leads us either wilfully or instinctively to shut our eyes to the possibility of evil. Thus the optimist who treats a problem in algebra or analytic geometry will say, if he stops to reflect on what he is doing: "I know that I have no right to divide by zero; but there are so many other values which the expression by which I am dividing might have that I will assume that the Evil One has not thrown a zero in my denominator this time."

Canticle of the CrossJoseph M. Martin - Shawnee Press
Click to review
Inspired by Celtic music traditions, this work for Lent or Holy Week presents Christ's journey to the cross. Utilizing folk songs, hymns and newly composed sacred songs, the music adorns the heart felt message of God's love and grace displayed in Christ's redemptive work on Calvary. A thoughtful narration weaves the movements of the work together with Scripture, prayer and poetry, while delivering a reflective message of hope and assurance. Gentle orchestrations capture the Celtic spirit of the music in a smaller, more restrained approach in keeping with Holy Week considerations. Contents: Prologues; The Song of the Cross; A Celtic Hosanna; Come to the Upper Room; The Garden of Tears; The Carpenter; A Tree Once Stood; Consolation of the Cross and Epilogue. Performance time: 30 minutes.

Spring is here and that means more people will be using their bicycle to get around.
But with more bikes on the streets and parked on the sidewalk, comes the opportunity for more thefts.
Bike thefts are on the rise -- more than five bikes are taken a day, on average, in the city -- and there is something everyone can do to try and turn things around: Lock up their bikes the right way.
Breaking news and the stories that matter to your neighborhood.
According to the most recent FBI Uniformed Crime Report statistics, nearly 200,000 bikes were stolen in 2012, up 3 percent from 2011. Overall, 3.4 percent of all reported thefts or larcenies in the northeast region of the United States involve bikes.
Experts estimate the number of actual bicycle thefts to be far higher. Some predict more than one million bikes are stolen nationwide annually since people don't report bike thefts believing that they won't get their ride back.
"Bike thefts are a problem," said Philadelphia Bicycle Coalition spokesman Nicholas Mirra. "We are on an ongoing process trying to work with the police department."
Despite efforts to decrease thefts, bike thefts have increased annually over the past five-plus years from 1,787 in 2008 to 1,976 last year a 10.6 percent increase overall, according to Philadelphia Police. This year the trend seems destined to continue since nearly 1,800 bikes have already gone missing.
Many bikes get locked up but go missing because the cyclist doesn't properly lock the bike. The Bicycle Coalition says to "make sure your wheels (and seat post if it's quick-release) are locked to your frame, and your frame is locked to something sturdy over which your bike cannot be lifted."
(For an example of proper techniques check out the photo above.)
Part of proper locking techniques include looping a U-lock through not only the tire but also the frame and using a cable lock to link in the other wheel. Heavy duty chain locks are also an option. Basically, you want to ensure that you make it difficult for a thief to remove the frame from the wheel or vice-versa.
According to the Bicycle Coalition, bikes get clipped -- another way to say taken -- for a variety of reasons besides not properly locking up or not locking at all including locking your bike to a place it doesn't belong.
"In Philly you are allowed to lock to what's called 'street furniture,'" Mirra said. "You are allowed to lock to parking meters, poles and bike racks that are in the sidewalk, that's public space, so if it's a sign that says '2-hour parking' you're allowed to lock your bike to it as long as you're not blocking the pedestrian right of way."
It is also a smart to park in well-lit areas, Mirra said.
"What you're not allowed to lock to is private property," Mirra said.
Some of the common spots where people leave bikes where they don't belong include railings up to doors, fences around gardens and fences around sidewalk planters.
If you park your bike there don't expect it to be there when you get back.
Philadelphia Police spokeswoman Officer Jillian Russell said that police don't ticket improperly parked bikes, but private citizens, in cases where the bikes are left attached to their property, have the right to remove the bikes.

We don't have any trips to Busch Stadium planned until August — by then, the damned Cubs will be 20 games up — but after watching this (silent) danceoff between Superman and Man With Tight Shorts, we're thinking we can take our time.
If we know your typical Busch Stadium-weekday-night-game crowd well enough ... there were some very confused fans in those bleachers. And lots of angry letters to the Cardinals front office.

You may recall that last year, a Russian research team drilled over 2 miles into the Antarctic ice sheet to reach Lake Vostok, a massive body of water that has been cut off from the world for possibly millions of years. Yes, it sounds exactly like the beginning of a horror movie, but it could lead to countless amazing scientific discoveries. Now, at last, we are about to find out what is in that lake.
To avoid contaminating the lake waters with their drill, the team drilled down until they had just broken through to liquid under the ice. Then, they left for the winter, hoping that waters from the lake would rise up through the hole just enough to freeze over and leave them a nice, uncontaminated chunk of lake ice that they could pull up out of the hole. And now that it's summer, they've returned to retrieve that ice. This week they pulled up a core of ice that was formed by waters that had not been exposed to Earth's atmosphere since Homo sapiens evolved.
Now, the research begins. Find out more from Caleb Sharf on Scientific American.

City head into their final Barclays Premier League game at home to West Ham on Sunday knowing they probably only need a draw to secure a second crown in three seasons.
With a two-point advantage over Liverpool and a superior goal difference, the odds are heavily in their favour - but the potential for a tension-filled ending still exists nevertheless.
City famously struck twice in the dying moments of their final game against QPR to snatch the title on goal difference from Manchester United two years ago.
Kompany hopes the experience of that dramatic finish will help guide them through this time around.
The City captain said: "We have been in this situation before.
"That gives you that little bit of time to take a deep breath and keep an overview of the situation.
"Two years ago it felt very full on, the whole game
There were a lot of emotions involved - scoring the first goal, going down - there were too much emotions involved.
"I think this year we will hopefully only have to show our emotions at the end of the game.
"There is no guarantee, that is one thing we have learned, but we have won a lot of games at the Etihad.
"We just need to put ourselves back in the mindset that we can carry on winning games here.
"I am sure Liverpool players and fans will still hope as well, so therefore we just need to do our job."
Manuel Pellegrini has called on his team to finish the job in style, sticking to the attacking principles that have been their hallmark throughout the campaign.
Kompany intends to adhere to that with the thought of a draw being sufficient not under consideration.
The influential defender said: "Everyone wants a win, and that is what we are going to play for
That is the right approach.
"We need to stay focused and put in one of those performances again that will hopefully give us the title on Sunday.
"We now have three days - stay calm, rest and recover for what should be the most important game of the season."
City put themselves in such a commanding position with an ultimately convincing 4-0 win over Aston Villa at Eastlands on Wednesday.
The crowd appeared to grow increasingly restless throughout a goalless opening 64 minutes but City did not look back after Edin Dzeko finally broke the deadlock.
The Bosnian added a second eight minutes later before substitute Stevan Jovetic and the rampaging Yaya Toure - with City's 100th league goal of the campaign - wrapped up the scoring late on.
Kompany insists the players were always in control of the situation, whatever feelings may have been present in the stands.
The 28-year-old said: "I think for 10-15 minutes at the back end of the first half we showed a little bit of nerves, maybe, but you can't say it is a negative if you have 75 very good minutes, where we were very professional, very organised, disciplined and didn't give a lot of chances away.
"Eventually we scored and then we knew the game was going to change."
Arsenal spent most of the first half of the season at the top of the table with Chelsea and Liverpool then having spells at the summit.
City, due largely to having games in hand as they pursued other trophies, have featured at the top only briefly.
They appear to have claimed first place at just the right time, however, and Kompany knows that is all that matters.
The Belgian said: "It has never been a case where we have been able to measure ourselves against the other teams because we were always two or three games down on people.
"But it is all about the last game of the season
If after the game against West Ham we are top of the league everyone will be pleased."
For Villa, manager Paul Lambert was left to reiterate his call for more investment after another difficult season.
The Scot, whose side conclude their campaign at Tottenham, said: "We have lost big players - (Christian) Benteke, (Libor) Kozak, (Jores) Okore, (Gabriel) Agbonlahor (to injury) - if it is not staring you in the face what needs to be improved, then you will never get it.
"I have always been really pleased with their effort
They have given absolutely everything
That is all you can ask for but the club needs players."

The secret to great cooking is... constantly honing your craft. It's about going to other places around town, other places around the world, fine-tuning your menu, changing up ingredients. You always have to be trying new things.
The secret to success in the restaurant business is... being humble. Once you own a place, you feel like you've made it, but moving to San Francisco was a humbling experience for me. You realize your s*** does stink just like everyone else's, and you learn to listen to feedback from other people in the kitchen and from your customers. Just thinking a dish is great doesn't make it one.
The secret to making Mono Loco's oysters is... not being afraid to experiment with your pico de gallo. The cucumber works well, but so does jicama, so does a lot of fruit. Let your creative juices flow, because pico's very forgiving.
Mono Loco's oysters
6 Virginia oysters
Panko (a Japanese wheat bread crumb)
2 avocados
1/2 cup sour cream
1/4 cup heavy cream
Lime juice
2 English (seedless) cucumbers
1 ripe tomato
1 yellow pepper
1 red pepper
1 Poblano pepper
1 handful cilantro
1 pinch of sugar
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
6 tortilla chips
-Seed, core, and dice the cucumbers, peppers, and tomato. Mix with cilantro, sugar, plus salt and pepper to taste. Add vinegar last and let sit for an hour to allow the flavors to mix. This is your pico de gallo.
-Dice the avocados and mix with the sour cream and heavy cream, plus salt, pepper, and lime juice to taste until creamy, to make an avocado crema. Pour a little bit of the crema on top of six tortilla chips.
-Soak the oysters in the buttermilk, dip them in the masa and panko mixture, and fry for 2-3 minutes.
-Put one oyster on top of each chip, top with the pico de gallo. If you want a little extra spice, sprinkle with a little chili powder. Serves four to six.

When I score a goal with Mode=0 activated it says "Enemy Goal! by Player Reward:5" instead of "Team Goal! by Player Reward:5". I also do not get the reward points under Mode=0. Mode=2 on the other hand works properly and the points are prized. Running ASSS 1.5.0, balls and scoring:points_goal is un-commented in modules.conf and loads without error on server start, points_goal \ is added to the arena.conf file. Here is how my [Soccer] settings look like: [Soccer] DisableWallPass = 0 DisableBallKilling = 1 BallBounce = 0 AllowBombs = 1 AllowGuns = 1 PassDelay = 20 Mode = 0 BallBlankDelay = 200 UseFlagger = 1 BallCount = 2 SendTime = 200 Reward = -5 CapturePoints = 0 CatchMinimum = 0 CatchPoints = 0 WinBy = 0 BallLocation = 1 SpawnX = 512 SpawnY = 512 SpawnRadius = 200 AllowGoalByDeath = 0 MinPlayers = 1 MinTeams = 1 GoalDelay = 0 NewGameDelay = 0 SpawnX/Y/RadiusN Loaded modules: AttachModules = \ koth \ fg_wz \ jackpot \ periodic \ points_kill \ points_flag \ points_goal \ points_periodic \ buy Also, I'm not sure if this was intentional or gone unnoticed but it seems that even if you set FlagReward=0 under the [Flag] section in arena.conf, you will still be rewarded 1000 points upon dropping all flags in a warzone style flagging game if the jackpot is less than 1. If the jackpot is 1 or more, you will win the proper jackpot amount. King of the hill is completely messed up. RewardFactor=1 under the [King] section in arena.conf is almost a useless command, you can put any number in there and you will always get prized 1000 points no matter what (except for negative numbers which result in no prize at all). Even though you set the king up to end in say 10 minutes, if you die before the game ends, not only do you get a new crown but the more you die the more games you win. There is no BombDamageUpgrade command to control different bomb level damage such as BulletDamageUpgrade. All bombs do the same damage. Just a few things I noticed setting up an ASSS server for the first time, if anyone knows some fixes for some of this stuff I would appreciate it.

For Kershaw, waiting is the hardest part
SAN DIEGO -- Dodgers ace Clayton Kershaw said the worst part of having a strained teres major muscle is not knowing how long he will be on the disabled list.
"The hard part is not having a set end goal," said Kershaw, who played a gentle game of catch Wednesday to keep his arm loose, without further irritating the muscle that runs from the top of the arm under the arm pit. "Whenever it feels better, I'll go. I tried to play catch to keep the arm going. But pitch in a game? Not sure when that's going to be. That's the hard part."
The reigning National League Cy Young Award winner was scratched from starting Sunday's domestic opener, then hit the shelf when it became clear he wasn't going to bounce back as quickly as hoped.
Kershaw and the Dodgers have not detailed when the injury occurred. He started the first game of the Opening Series in Australia and made 102 pitches over 6 2/3 innings, but he won't pitch again for at least another month.
Manager Don Mattingly stopped short of saying the injuries to Kershaw and teammate Brian Wilson (right elbow) were the result of an abbreviated Spring Training to facilitate the season-opening trip to Australia.
"If I would, I'd be guessing," he said of making the connection. "If you talk to [pitching coach] Rick Honeycutt, if MLB asked him what he thought, he'd have a different plan. He thought it was a little short, that pitchers didn't get on the mound enough. If they listened to Rick, they would have had a different system."
Kershaw said the injury occurred from "throwing hard, obviously. What caused it? At the end of the day, it happened. I try not to think about that. I feel I prepared as well as I could have. I felt great all Spring Training. I don't know what I could have done better. I don't think the flight itself had anything to do with it. Obviously pitching is what hurt it. Whether it was Australia or not, who knows?"
Kershaw said he hasn't taken any injections because he's been told the best prescription is rest.
"I'm not good at that," he said. "Patience isn't a virtue of mine."


text: Back Milk Expression Expressing your milk You will have to remove milk from your breasts on a regular basis if you are to provide enough of your milk for your high-risk baby. Many mothers find they can appreciate their babies' breastfeeding patterns when they understand how breast milk is produced. Initially, hormones play a greater role. After the first one or two weeks postpartum (after the baby is born), milk removal has a greater effect on the amount fo milk produced. How is breast milk produced? With the expulsion of the placenta after a baby's birth, a drop in the hormones that maintained the pregnancy soon occurs and allows the hormone prolactin to begin to work. the placenta is expelled, which signals a drop in the hormones that maintained the pregnancy. The sudden drop in these hormones allows the hormone prolactin to begin working. Prolactin "tells" the breasts it is time to begin producing large amounts of milk. A mother feels the result of prolactin when her milk "comes in" at around three to five days postpartum. Increased milk production usually occurs at this time even if a baby has not been breastfeeding well or often. However, frequent breastfeeding sometimes speeds up the process of establishing increased milk production. Occasionally, a mother experiences a delay in the production of large amounts of milk. Successful breast milk production Ongoing, long-term milk production depends mostly on milk removal. The more often milk is removed, and the more completely it is removed, the more milk the breasts make. The opposite is also true. When milk is removed less often, or an insufficient amount is removed, the breasts get the signal to slow milk production and make less. Milk removal occurs when a baby effectively breastfeeds. Effective breastfeeding requires effective sucking by the baby so that enough milk is transferred from the breast into the baby's mouth where it is swallowed. To suck effectively, a baby must latch deeply onto the breast and use the structures in his/her mouth to create intermittent (periodic) suction and compress the milk sinuses (enlarged area of milk ducts) lying beneath the areola -- the area about 1 1/2 to 2 inches behind the nipple tip. Proper sucking signals the mother's body to release the hormone oxytocin, which results in a greater transfer of milk with the milk-ejection reflex (MER), or milk "let down." Click Image to Enlarge Milk expression methods Milk transfer also can be accomplished through milk expression techniques. When using manual expression, a mother compresses the milk sinuses by hand to remove milk. Breast pumps remove milk by creating suction, and a few also have features that compress milk sinuses to some degree. Generally, the milk-ejection reflex is triggered during milk expression sessions, especially if frequent and regular sessions occur.

Can a wife or girlfriend with few - if any - kinky inclinations be persuaded to satisfy the submissive and masochistic desires of their husband or boyfriend?
Some say yes, others no. Here's an extract from an ongoing discussion:
Looked at from this perspective, the question "Is it possible to 'convert' a straight woman to be the domme of your dreams?" needs careful examination. "Is it possible to 'convert' a straight woman" - I think it's hard to argue that it's wrong to try to open someone to new experiences that they might enjoy, and which might benefit the relationship. The problematic bit is "[to convert her to] the domme of your dreams?". If it were possible to change the people around us into what we imagine we would like them to be, then life would be much easier than it is. Asking one's partner to be dominant may be good, but insisting that they conform to a fantasy creation is clearly undesirable and impossible.

For Vicki Howery and her family, coming out and adopting a puppy at the Ingham County Animal Shelter was a no-brainer.
"The thought of these beautiful animals sitting in a shelter and not going to a home...I couldn't bare it any longer," said Howery.
It was a feeling shared by many who filled up the shelter, Friday night, for its first 'All-Nighter'. The result of which was dozens of empty kennels and cages.
"Normally, we have 200-plus animals on a day like today," said Jamie McAloon Lampman, Director of the Ingham County Animal Shelter. "Just slammed all day."
With the help of volunteers, the shelter wanted to get as many dogs and cats adopted before closing for the holidays. McAloon Lampman says it is important, especially during a time when there can be as many animals brought into the shelter by their owners as there are leaving it.
"Christmas and Fourth of July are the two biggies," said McAloon Lampman. "[Owners] have just made a decision to get rid of this dog because it's inconvenient because they're going on vacation and don't want to pay for boarding."
But while plenty of people brought in animals, shelter volunteers expected very few animals left at the end of the night. It's hard to believe McAloon Lampman got the idea from the Facebook post of a friend who works at a shelter in Washington.
"She had a video on and it showed empty cage, empty cage, empty cage," said McAloon Lampman.
Now, that's exactly what the Ingham County shelter is seeing.
"We're going to experience what every shelter in the United States wants...and that's an empty shelter," said McAloon Lampman.
To help bring people into the event, donor money lowered the adoption fee to $21 total, including vaccinations.

Consultation on Chaplaincy Education at Columbia International University
Nearly two dozen chaplains representing various aspects of chaplaincy ministry will be on the campus of Columbia International University Sept. 13 for a Consultation on Chaplaincy Education. They will be advising CIU Seminary & School of Missions on how to understand chaplaincy education as the school explores the implications for master's degree chaplaincy programs it might offer in the future.
Among the types of chaplaincy that will be discussed are Military, Institutional and Organizational. Military Chaplaincy includes ministry to the men and women of the army, navy and air force - both active duty and the reserves. Institutional Chaplaincy is an outreach to public safety officers, corrections officers and those involved in healthcare - both the providers and their patients. Organizational Chaplaincy focuses on government workers, the corporate world, those involved in leisure activities, crisis managers and disaster relief workers.
The chairman of the consultation, Dr. William Larkin, a professor in CIU Seminary & School of Missions, says CIU is strategically located for a variety of chaplaincy work.
"The chaplain school for all branches of the U.S. armed forces is now at Fort Jackson in Columbia," Larkin said. "Plus, Columbia has four major hospitals, several penal institutions, and is an educational, cultural and business center. There is much opportunity for corporate and leisure chaplaincy work."
Among those taking part in the consultation are Adrian Despres, a guest chaplain to the University of South Carolina football team, Jim and Susan Hogan of Corporate Chaplains of America and Navy Chaplain Michael Langston, commanding officer of the Navy Chaplaincy School and Center at Fort Jackson.

AOA: Sad day for Southern Ocean as CCAMLR Fails To Agree
For Immediate Release
Blair Palese, AOA Communications Director (Hobart)
AOA: Sad day for Southern Ocean as CCAMLR Fails To Agree On Antarctic Marine Protected Area Initiatives
HOBART, 1 November 2012 – The Antarctic Ocean Alliance (AOA) today said CCAMLR's failure to deliver any marine reserves or marine protected areas (MPAs) for Antarctica's Southern Ocean was deeply disappointing and means a redoubling of effort will be needed to ensure that it can deliver on its commitment to establish a system of marine protected areas.
For the second time ever, CCAMLR has agreed to hold a special intercessional meeting in July 2013 in Germany, where all relevant science regarding the MPAs under consideration must be provided. A number of countries participating in the meeting expressed strong disappointment at the failure to make progress at this year's meeting.
"The world has been watching CCAMLR this year in order to ensure it would agree on significant Antarctic marine protection but all they have achieved is an agreement to meet in six months time," said the AOA's Steve Campbell. "CCAMLR members failed to establish any large-scale Antarctic marine protection at this meeting because a number of countries actively blocked conservation efforts."
Campbell noted that the United States, European Union, France, Australia, New Zealand and others worked hard over the two-week meeting to propose a workable way forward, but said that "all member nations must now take responsibility for ensuring this international body delivers on its commitment to establish a network of MPAs and no-take reserves in the Southern Ocean, albeit later than its promise to do so in 2012."
"Today I am feeling sad and angry," said Jim Barnes, Executive Director of the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition (ASOC). "My first CCAMLR meeting was during the negotiation of the Convention in 1980 and I have followed its evolution since. CCAMLR has prided itself on being in the forefront of marine conservation but this year has been unable to honour important commitments. This responsibility, and this failure, rests with all Members."
"WWF has directly supported years of scientific work to underpin rational MPA creation in the Southern Ocean," said WWF's Paul Gamblin. "There was no good scientific reason to delay the Ross Sea and East Antarctic MPAs this year. The special meeting in 2013 must be the last word on these proposals. Then the work must continue on the rest of the MPA network. Time is slipping away."
"This year, CCAMLR has behaved like a fisheries organization instead of an organisation dedicated to conservation of Antarctic waters," said Farah Obaidullah of Greenpeace. "If there is a glimmer of hope to be pulled from the ruins today, it is in the redoubling of the commitment to create marine protected areas expressed by most CCAMLR members. The question now is whether countries like Russia, China and the Ukraine will come to the next meeting prepared to meet their conservation commitments."
"This is a resounding disappointment for the conservation of the Ross Sea and East Antarctica, and for science," said Gerry Leape, senior officer at the Pew Environment Group. "In 2011, participating countries agreed to work together to protect and conserve the unique marine life that thrives in the ocean surrounding Antarctica. Instead, they are heading home and leaving the door wide open to unchecked commercial fishing in these special areas."
CCAMLR, made up of 24 countries and the European Union, has been considering proposals for two critical areas in Antarctica's Southern Ocean at their meeting, including 1.6 million square kilometres of protection for the Ross Sea, the world's most intact marine ecosystem, and 1.9 million square kilometres of coastal area in the East Antarctic.
"The AOA and all of the 30 organisations that we work with will redouble our efforts over the next year to ensure that CCAMLR lives up to its commitment to build a system of Antarctic marine reserves and marine protected areas that protect these pristine regions for future generations," AOA's Steve Campbell said.
The AOA's research has identified over 40% of the Southern Ocean that warrants protection in a network of large-scale marine reserves and MPAs based on conservation and planning analyses, and including additional key environmental habitats.
Antarctic marine ecosystems are under increasing pressure. Climate change is affecting the abundance of important food sources for penguins, whales, seals and birds, and growing demand for seafood in Europe, North America and Asia coupled with significant overfishing and depletion of fish populations elsewhere means greater interest in the Southern Ocean's marine resources.
Public support for Antarctic marine protection has grown significantly over the last year with more than 30 international environmental organizations convening and amassing more than 1.2 million calls for large-scale protection. The AOA is made up of 30 international organisations including the Pew Environment Group, WWF, Greenpeace, and International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW), the Antarctic and Southern Ocean Coalition (ASOC) and many others from countries including China, Korea, Russia, Norway, New Zealand, the US and the United Kingdom.
