>>>Full Teams
AIKEN, S.C. – With an offense that ranks among the nation's best, the No. 28 Georgia College baseball team (33-14) was rewarded with three members on the All-Peach Belt Conference (PBC) teams, announced Friday night at the Annual PBC Baseball Awards Banquet.
Outfielder Jake Sandlin (Evans, Ga.) and catcher Steve Hazel (Kentwood, Mich.) earned slots on the first team, while first baseman Clay Ardeeser (Loganville, Ga.) took a second-team spot.
Sandlin earns a spot on the all-conference team for his second-straight year, after hitting .366 with 53 runs, five home runs and 51 RBI. The sophomore was a second-team selection a year ago. Sandlin is the first two-time All-PBC selection in the Bobcat outfield since Shawn Ward in 2010 and 2011.
Hazel takes his first All-PBC honor, and is hitting .389 with 42 runs, 12 home runs and 50 RBI. The junior slugger ranks second in the PBC in home runs and seventh in batting average. Hazel is the first Bobcat catcher to earn All-PBC since Richard Pirkle in 2011.
Ardeeser makes it back-to-back seasons on the All-PBC Second Team, thanks to a .433 batting average 55 runs scored, nine home runs and 59 RBI. The junior leads the Peach Belt in batting average, and ranks second in RBI. Ardeeser is the first two-time pick at first base in Georgia College history.
The three gives Georgia College 67 All-PBC awards all-time. The Bobcats have won 26 in head coach Tom Carty's seven seasons.
The Bobcats begin the defense of their PBC Tournament title tomorrow, May 10 at 1:30 p.m. as the No. 4-seed, taking on No. 5-seed UNC Pembroke.
The Georgia College Department of Athletics, two-time winners of the PBC Commissioner's Cup, sponsors 11 varsity athletic programs at the NCAA Division II level. As a Division II program, Bobcat Athletics prides itself on balancing the life of the student-athlete, evidenced by the teams' multiple appearances in post-season competition as well as documented academic success and community-service involvement.

World is a common name for the whole of human civilization, specifically human experience, history, or the human condition in general, worldwide, i.e. anywhere on Earth or pertaining to anywhere on Earth.
In a philosophical context it may refer to:
In a theological context, world usually refers to the material or the profane sphere, as opposed to the celestial, spiritual, transcendent or sacred. The "end of the world" refers to scenarios of the final end of human history, often in religious contexts.
World history is commonly understood as spanning the major geopolitical developments of about five millennia, from the first civilizations to the present.
World population is the sum of all human populations at any time; similarly, world economy is the sum of the economies of all societies (all countries), especially in the context of globalization. Terms like world championship, gross world product, world flags etc. also imply the sum or combination of all current-day sovereign states.

Oh Danny-boy,
Its not that people are not making an effort to understand.....
It's more so that they are trying to get you to pull your head out of your anus so that you too can once again see the light and understand that no, the world does not revolve around you and that no, you are nowhere near the genius you claim to be.
If you were such a genius, and not just a flaming troll, you would not have been a part of that whole religious discussion debacle.
If you were such a genius, you would have tact in your statements, and would respect the moderators and actual experts in the field of rocketry who post in this forum.
If you were such a genius, you would have answered our questions as well with REAL answers and not just words and numbers you pulled from deep inside your colon.
The list goes on and on Dan-oh.
But as such i am firmly beginning to believe that you are, infact, a Bot. Either that or you are a really sad individual who just lllooooooves to get his jollies off by trolling forums, starting flame wars, and just being a punk in general.
You claim no one is willing to understand. Understand what? That you have zero common sense, a practically imaginary value of tact, an inability to actually reason and listen to what others are saying, instead of just sticking your fingers in your ears and going 'NANANANANANANA I CANT HEAR YOU!!!!' ? Because these things everyone here surely understands by now.
I await your response with with sweet patience.

I consider keeping this thread open and banning other people for participating it to be grossly unprofessional.
If this thread remains open, I'll be looking into other options for the official Masten Space forum.

Name: Frasier
Age: 63
Location: Southern Calif
I've been a widower for 9 years now. But before she died it was always my fantasy to see her suck another guy's cock. Since she's passed away I've had this fantasy of me sucking another guy's cock. This never crossed my mind before she died. Can you help me understand this?
Hmmm, Frasier, let me see if I got this straight. You've been a widower for 9 years. However, while your wife was still living you had a fantasy of watching her suck another guy's cock. Ok, not a particularly odd fetish that. But I am unclear about one thing. Did this wife sucking other guy's cock actually happen, or not? Not that this is particularly important, just wondering. So, now 9 years later you say you suddenly have the urge to smoke some pole yourself, even though you've never thought of doing this before. Is this correct?
Ahhh even if I understand you correctly, I don't get the question. Wait, maybe there is no question? Maybe you're just curious about why a 63 year old confirmed, dyed in the wool straight heterosexual guy like you suddenly realizes he want to suck himself some cock. I can see how you might find this little discovery a bit disconcerting, but it's certainly not unprecedented. I guess you're being startled out of our sexual complacency, huh? Not to worry, it may simply be situational. You are probably worried that this makes you queer, right? I think we can safely say that your curious new interest means no such thing.
Let's just say for the sake of argument that you decide to pursue this little jones of yours and you take the opportunity to wrap your lips around some other dude's johnson. Ok, then what? Well, basically nothing. If you find, after this little adventure, that you don't much like sucking cock and that you're really still into pussy. No harm done. You experimented a little and you now have more information about yourself then you did before the experimental blowjob. You may simply discover that you only like having your female partners do the cock sucking while you do the watching. Like I said, a relatively harmless and unremarkable fetish.
But, what if you decide to pursue this little jones of yours and you actually take the opportunity to wrap your lips around some other guy's johnson and you really like it. Well that's a horse of different color, isn't it? Then you'll have to come to grips with the realization that despite you long history of straight heterosexualism, you might be, at this point in your life, kinda bisexual. How fun for you!
There is of course another explanation. Some exclusively straight heterosexual guys suck dick not because it's a turn on…the dick sucking that is. They do it to be submissive. Alrighty, whatever turns one's crank!
I think we can safely say that for the most part, humans are not sexual automatons. Given a more permissive and sex-positive culture then our own, we'd all be more fluid in our eroticism and sexual expression. It's true; you are in unfamiliar waters, sexually speaking. But it's just a little adventure, not the end of the world. I hope you give yourself permission to experiment a bit.
Ya know, you could hook up with a male escort or see an erotic masseur for a little taste. In fact, I'd tell the provider what you just told me. Let him know you're looking to experiment a little, but you're unsure how to begin. I'll bet the provider will be very helpful. Write back sometime, I'd love to know how it goes for you.
Name: Joey
Age: 22
Location: Southern Calif
Love doing tina with masturbation and watching really hot porn. Think this is just social fun?
Nope, I don't Joey. Despite the prevalence of this dastardly drug, there is nothing fun about tina…crystal meth for those unfamiliar with the term "tina". If you love doing tina for whatever reason, I'd wager you're hooked on that shit.
Listen, I'm not prude when it comes to using some drugs recreationally. But I think that we'd do well to stick to those drugs that are more natural. The less processing involved (and meth is the worst in that regard) and fewer added chemicals (OMG, the crap they put in crystal) the better, in my humble opinion.
Despite the admitted high ya get, recent research shows that long-term meth use destroys nerve cells in the brain that regulate dopamine, muscle movement, memory, and decision-making. This damage can be wide-spread and permanent.
Your body reacts to crystal meth the same way it reacts to danger. Crystal floods the body with adrenaline — the same hormone that prepares us for emergencies. Adrenaline gives a super-charge of strength and endurance so the body can deal with danger and injury. But artificially triggering this response over and over again will have serious consequences.
When you use crystal, your nervous system shifts into high gear. The brain floods your body with "danger" messages. Your body responds immediately to what it thinks is a threat. It prepares to fight or to run away. Common body responses to perceived danger include:
- Pupils dilate to let in more light.
- Hair stands on end ("getting goose bumps").
- Blood vessels just under the skin constrict.
- Body temperature goes up
Regular, long-term crystal use will diminish sores of neurotransmitters. Episodes of paranoia and anxiety become more frequent and longer lasting. Blocked blood vessels within the brain can lead to increased chances of stroke.
Crystal fucks with your dopamine levels. Dopamine delivers a sense of reward and pleasure. It is also associated with body movement. Too little dopamine causes paralysis or a Parkinson's-like tremors and rigidity. Too much dopamine and a person can become paranoid, hear voices and get twisted thoughts. Sound familiar?
Crystal fucks with your serotonin levels. Serotonin is involved in regulating sleep and sensory perception. It plays a role in moods and regulating body temperature. Serotonin is involved with many emotional disorders like schizophrenia, phobias, super-aggressive states and obsessive-compulsive behavior. Too much serotonin can make it difficult (or impossible) to have an orgasm. And of course there's the dreaded "crystal dick"…the inability to get it up.
Joey, listen up! You're way too young with too much of your life ahead of you to self-inflict so much serious irreparable damage on yourself. If this weren't such a troublesome drug, there wouldn't be such a virulent anti and reformed tweeker community out there. Want to know the real truth about "tina" check in at: crystalmeth.org. You'll be glad you did.
Name: Shelly
Gender: Female
Age: 20
Location: Raleigh, NC
My boyfriend and I are 20. We've been together for almost two years and we're in love. But we have a problem. I'm pro-choice and he isn't. He says he won't have sex with me unless I agree to have the kid if I get pregnant. I told him there's no way I can agree to that. It's my choice because it's my body. But then he says it's his choice to stop having sex with me because he disagrees with my views. Where do I go from here? I'm not ready to start a family; we're not even married.
Ya know, Shelly, if men got pregnant, abortion would be a sacrament.
Where do you go from here? Simply put? Hit the road; or better yet, tell him to. This dude who you say you love and loves you back is actually trying to control you with his dick. That's never a good thing. It would also set a dangerous precedent for the rest of your relationship. Because if he gets his way on this one; mark my words, he'll try the same dickhead ploy over and over again. I realize you don't have much of a frame of reference about these things, being as young as you are. But healthy adult relationships don't come with sexual ultimatums. EVER.
There is of course a way to have your cake and eat it too. You can enjoy a full and rich sex life and avoid unplanned pregnancies all at the same time. Let me introduce you kids to a little concept we call contraception.
WTF, you're both 20 years old, you should have a handle on elementary notion already. Where have you been all your life? Both of you should be well versed in several methods of contraception. And you both should practice at least one foolproof method. If you are too immature to put this together, I can assure you you're way to immature to commence fucking. Get it?
Here's the deal. I'm not a big fan of abortion either, especially when it's used as the primary means of avoiding a pregnancy. And since there's a very safe and easy way to avoid this unfortunate moral dilemma, you guys would be fools not to take advantage of it. But wait! What if the BF is opposed to contraception? It sure sounds to me like he might. Well then you really are shit out of luck. No fucking for you till you're married. No, till you are absolutely ready to conceive, even if that's well after you're married. Because you know you're gonna get knocked up the very first time you let him near your pussy.
Mutual masturbation works an alternative to full on fucking. But probably there's some prohibition against that in his world too, huh? So you see why I said at the beginning that your best option is to hit the road, or tell him to.
Good luck ya'll
Lookin' for a good time?

As Hobby Lobby made its case to the Supreme Court, arguing that its business is sufficiently Christian to be exempt from Obamacare's contraceptive mandate, another business was arguing its evangelical bona fides, too.
WaterBrook Multnomah Publishing Group, the evangelical division of Penguin Random House (PRH), is one of the world's leading Christian publishers. Its backlist includes David Platt's Radical, John Piper's Desiring God, and Stephen Arterburn's Every Man's Battle. But it has resigned its membership in the National Religious Broadcasters (NRB) rather than submit to an ethics review over God and the Gay Christian—a book it didn't actually publish.
The book, in which Matthew Vines argues that same-gender sex is not sinful, was published by Convergent Books. A 16-month-old PRH line, Convergent describes itself as "for progressive and mainline Christians who demand an open, inclusive, and culturally engaged exploration of faith."
In a letter to board members, NRB president Jerry Johnson said WaterBrook Multnomah employees worked on the Convergent book, noting that Stephen Cobb is chief publishing executive for both groups. Cobb also oversees Image, PRH's Catholic imprint. All three divisions share offices in Colorado Springs, away from PRH's Manhattan headquarters.
"This issue comes down to NRB members producing unbiblical material, regardless of the label under which they do it," Johnson said. "I asked them to reconsider and end the practice of having Christian workers from their publishing house work on Convergent projects. They declined."
In a statement published before the NRB letter, Cobb said no employees were forced to work ...1

Authorities in Bristol, Connecticut spent the last week searching a pond for the gun they believe was used to kill Odin Lloyd, but their search has come to an end without the evidence they hoped to retrieve.
The pond is near the previously searched Pine Lake and both bodies of water are two miles from the home of the uncle of former Patriots tight end Aaron Hernandez, who has been charged with murder. Two other suspects charged in the crime, Ernest Wallace and Carlos Ortiz, stayed at the home and Ortiz was arrested there.
"No evidence was recovered and, at the present time, no more dives are planned," Lt. Kevin Morrell of the Bristol Police Department said, via UPI.com.
Ortiz told investigators that Hernandez put two guns in a box in his basement after the shooting and court documents allege that Hernandez's fiancee Shayanna Jenkins was seen on surveillance video leaving the house with a box and placing it in the trunk of her car. She returned less than an hour later without the box, which wasn't enough time for her to drive to Bristol and back which make is unclear what evidence led authorities to believe that the weapon may have been disposed of in those waters.

Columbia Basin College
CBC: Women's basketball coach Holden retires
Cheryl Holden was the winningest coach in Columbia Basin College basketball history.
In her 13 seasons, Holden's teams won 70 percent of their games, compiling a record of 267-117.
But she paid a price for that record with her health.
So on Mon-day, the school announced that Holden is retiring after 13 seasons at the helm of the Hawk women's program.
"I need to step back and slow down, put my needs first and my health first," Holden said. "I'm not getting any younger."
Holden, 54, said it's nothing serious, just a bunch of little things that have added up.
"My blood pressure goes up. I have migraines during the season," she said. "Two seasons ago, I ended up in the hospital in Salem."
Holden had already signed a new crop of incoming freshmen and helped a number of her standouts from this past season sign with four-year schools to play basketball.
But her health has always been in the back of her mind.
"I've been thinking about (retiring) for a while," Holden said. "I thought I could make it through another season."
But she realized it was time. Holden will remain at CBC in her current position as Director of Running Start and Student Records.
"Doctors say stress can make you sick," she said. "I think (winning) has (taken its toll). Burning oil at both ends catches up to you. I think at this level, as this fall I was given more responsibilities. I have a lot more into my job at CBC. I think things were kind of catching up to me."
Holden leaves some big shoes to fill at CBC.
She coached the Hawks to four NWAACC championships, two in the last three years.
She was hired in 2001 after a successful stint as head coach at West Valley High School of Yakima, where her teams compiled a record of 117-21 and won a state championship.
Her first championship came in 2005, when the Hawks finished 26-6. Another title and a then-record 28-win season followed in 2008.
The record stood until 2012 when the Hawks posted a 29-2 mark and won another NWAACC championship.
But perhaps the best team in CBC and NWAACC history came in Holden's final season this past spring, when the Hawks rolled to another championship with a 27-4 record.
Holden was named NWAACC coach of the year four times, and East Region Coach of the Year five times.
Her assistant, Daron Santo, will take over as head coach.
Santo has been Holden's assistant coach for the past four seasons.
Prior to that, he was the head coach at Prosser High School for nine seasons.
Santo took a Mustang program that had a 3-18 record prior to his arrival and led them to two state tournaments, placing seventh in 2007 and third in 2008.
Holden said that Santo has been a huge part of the program those four seasons, and has taken more of the workload on each season.
And Santo will still have Holden there to answer any questions he has.
"It's gonna work out OK," Holden said. "I'm gonna be around. I'm gonna be there for Daron. I'm not leaving CBC. I love CBC."
Holden has coached and taught for 31 years at some level, helping student-athletes improve themselves on the court and in the classroom.
Now it's time to take care of herself.
"I don't know what my journey is going to be," she said. "I just decided I need to take care of myself. My 13 years at CBC has been absolutely amazing. I couldn't ask for a better place to work."

prop_reverse() -> ?FORALL(Xs, list(int())), ?FORALL(Ys, list(int())), reverse(Xs++Ys) == reverse(Xs) ++ reverse(Ys).In fact this specification is wrong as a quick check (pun intended) shows us:
Failed! After 12 tests. [-3,2] [3,0] Shrinking....(10 times) [0][1]QuickCheck provides two important features:
- It provides the interface to a controlled generation of test cases (as opposed to simply random ones, which usually are of little help).
- It generates and runs tests of the specified properties and--this might be new to users of the GHC package
Test.QuickCheck--shrinks them to smaller test cases. This is important as it often hard to find the actual cause of a bug, especially if test cases are very large. (John mentioned that the Mozilla developers actually offer T-Shirts to people just reducing test cases as they found this to be an extremely time consuming task.
Xs and
Ys in the last line.
Advantages of Specification-based TestingThe most obvious advantage of using QuickCheck over usual test cases is that it allows us to dramatically reduce the number of test cases. In fact it also does a great job in finding corner cases. In their field study at Ericsson, while spending only 6 days to implement all the test properties (and a library for state-machine-based testing), they found 5 bugs in an already well-tested soon-to-release product, one of which would have been really unlikely to be triggered by any test case and revealed 9 bugs in an older version of the project, of which only one has been documented at this time. (see the paper). Neil Mitchell also recently posted about the merits of QuickCheck can be. John added one note, though. The bugs they found were very small (due to shrinking) and in fact would have never been caused in the real system, because the command sequences that lead to the failures would have never been triggered by the real controller. However, they tested against the documented (400+ pages) specification. This leads us to one other important advantage of specification-based testing. QuickCheck forces (or allows) us to actually state the specification as executable properties. therefore we might not only find errors in the program but, as seen in our example, also in the specification. This can be very useful and he gave a nice demonstration of buggy (or incomplete) specification for the Erlang functions
unregister/1, and
whereis/1 that provide a sort of name server for Erlang processes.
To do this he generated a sequence of Erlang calls and checked if their results corresponded to the model of a state machine based on the specification. That is our current state consisted of a simple map, representing the (assumed) state of the name server. Using preconditions he controlled the allowable sequences of generated commands and checked their outcome using postconditions.
This small experiment showed quite a couple of incompletenesses in the Erlang specification, e.g., it does state that
register/2 will fail if you try to register the same process under different names, but it does not state that the process is not added to the list of registered processes (although sensible to assume--nevertheless, the specification is incomplete). (I think he had some more serious example, but I can't remember what exactly it was.)

Lady Gaga Responds to Die Antwoord Video Diss
Lady Gaga has responded to South African rap-rave act Die Antwoord's diss of her in their video for 'Fatty Boom Boom,' and lots of little monsters have followed suit to trash the group on Twitter. A digital war is imminent.
In the graphic and tasteless video, which you can view below, the Zef-inspired, counterculture group portrays the Mother Monster in unflattering light and in her meat dress. She gets carjacked and runs through a slum. The band performs in body paint and in blackface, and Gaga later returns. She gives birth to a locust (warning: if you have a weak stomach, skip this part!) and goes on with her life. That is, until she is chased by a lion, mauled while wearing raw meat. There is no cute or funny subtext in this clip.
Ma Monster and her makeup artist Tara Savelo didn't take kindly to the visual throttling of Gaga, with Savelo tweeting that performing in blackface is racist, and she even threw a diss at chronic Gaga insulter Madonna.
Die Antwoord did respond that while they are not as big as Mother Monster, they are cooler. That is a matter of personal taste, and of course, there is no accounting for that.
Gaga pointed out that she sold tons of tickets in their homeland. She tweeted: "i fink u freaky but you don't have a hit. hundred thousand tIckets sold in SA." The "fink u freaky" part is a reference to one of Die Antwoord's songs.
Final score: Gaga at the top of the leaderboard. Die Antwoord? Not even on it, son!
And at the end of the day, Gaga is an envelope pushing artist. You'd think she and Die Antwoord would feel like kindred spirits. In fact, Gaga reportedly invited the collective to tour with her, but they said, "Thanks, but no thanks," since they prefer Celine Dion. No, we're not kidding.
Die Antwoord seem like muckrakers who like ruffling Gaga's feathers, but she can back it up with art and commerce.
Below are the tweets on the matter.
i guess its not a good idea to tell someone you're a fan. never mind! we get it, you're not a little monster. WE GOT IT.

McCray replaces assistant coach Robert Kirby who left last month for another assistant's job at Memphis.
McCray has also served as an assistant coach at Mercer University and at Chipola Junior College. He was at Mercer from 2007 for one year and at Chipola during the 04/05 season.
The new LSU Tigers man has also previously worked as a skill development trainer with some of the NBA's biggest stars based in Atlanta and surrounding Georgia communities, such as Dwight Howard and John Wall.
The Tigers have Johnny Jones as their head coach who has also coached at Memphis and North Texas, as well as being assistant at Alabama and at LSU for 13 years between 1984 and 1997.
Jones has won 56% of the 398 games that he has been in charge of in his career.

This actually happened in my county. I was appalled to hear about this going home with 8 year olds and very shocked it would have gone home. At our school in the same county each grade has the same coarse work. If third grade is leaning multiplication they were all doing the same worksheets and tests. This teacher did not follow proper protocol. This is in appropriate on every level. There was no social or moral context to these questions. This teacher or any one else that approved this assignment to go home should be fired.
This has made the local, state, and now national media. I saw it mentioned on Fox News, Parents magazine and now the Talk, a new celebrity talk show. It is just absolutely appalling and I really do hope that this teacher will be fired. The slave question was bad enough but there was a question about how many beatings Fredrick Douglas received and that is outrageous. I hope this national attention will put pressure on the school and county to fire all involved.

Sen. Jim Sullivan Town Hall Meeting, May 7th, 5:30pm, East High School
Can't say if I will attend on such short notice, but I thought at least I would pass it on to you.
If I did go, I might want to ask him why he voted to confirm Roger Axtell and Michael Weiden to the University of Wisconsin Hospitals and Clinics Authority Board last month.
If you have not been following this issue, the University of Wisconsin Hospital and Clincs will be performing 2nd trimester abortions at the Madison Surgery Center. That means Wisconsin taxpayer money is going to go for aborting viable children. The children are so developed, they must first be dismembered in the womb.
From ProLifeWisconsin: (My emphasis is underlined)
Outside the Senate chamber just prior to the vote, Pro-Life Wisconsin and other pro-life organizations and advocates spoke at a press conference called by Senators Glenn Grothman (R-West Bend) and Mary Lazich (R-New Berlin). Members of the pro-life medical community, including Dr. Bill Evans of Madison and Dr. Christine Zainer of Milwaukee, and parents of developmentally disabled children came forward to challenge the Senate to recognize the inherent dignity of all human persons.
Pro-Life Wisconsin applauds Senator Grothman and his Republican colleagues for voting for life. We are especially proud of Senator Vinehout for voting her convictions with courage, in stark contrast to her Democrat colleagues who apparently could not bring themselves to oppose even late-term abortions. Pro-Life Wisconsin is especially disappointed in Senator Jim Sullivan (D-Wauwatosa) who in defiance of his professed Catholic faith voted to confirm Axtell and Weiden.
Or how about asking why Jim Sullivan does not want a Voter ID law in Wisconsin? Remember that ploy? He stated he was in favor of voter ID, but not by amending the state constitution, but by legislation. So he voted against the measure to put it on the ballot allowing voters to decide (Legislation can be vetoed by the governor, amendments cannot.)
I still remember former Mayor Kate Bloomberg's endorsement of Democrat Jim Sullivan over Republican Tom Reynolds.
But the Brookfieldnow posting cited that in Bloomberg and Urban's opinion, the Democrat they are endorsing is running to serve and represent the people of the 5th district effectively, "whether they are conservative, liberal, or somewhere in between". Think about that. How is that even possible? On every major issue, I disagree STRONGLY with that candidate's position.
How is it I would be satisfied with his representing me? How could a pro-life, pro-traditional marriage, believer in lower taxes, (how could I forget pro voter photo ID, anti benefits to illegal aliens), fiscal conservative like me ever be represented by someone whose platform is pro-abortion, pro-gay marriage, opposed to voter photo ID, opposed to requiring welfare recipients to prove their legal US status, and pro-taxation? Any Republican espousing those liberal values would be an "embarrassment" to the Republican Party. But then, I asked myself, how well did Mayor Kate reflect my values? Not very well. So, why would I give any credence to her endorsement now?
So far, Sen. Jim Sullivan has NOT represented me at all. If you cannot make the town hall, you might wish to contact him directly.
(D) Senator Jim Sullivan (608) 266-2512, (866) 817-6061, email: email@example.com

"It has to be made clear to everyone, including the main Church in this State, that the rights of children and the laws of the land come first," Senator David Cullinane was reported by the Irish Times as saying earlier this week in Seanad Éireann. "Priests should know that they cannot use the confessional seal as a reason for not coming forward with information on abuse."
And that is what the government of the Irish republic has now reaffirmed. According to the Minister for Justice, Alan Shatter, if a priest or a bishop, prosecuted under the legislation he intends to introduce, were to claim entitlement to "some form of privilege", the courts might be called on to decide the issue, since the special position of the Catholic Church has been removed from the Constitution. He did not, he went on, believe that where a child or a vulnerable adult had been a victim of abuse, the Irish courts would hold that it was "of benefit to the State" that those who knew of the abuse should conceal it.
And so, there we are. They are really going ahead with this. Last month, Shatter announced the publication of his bill, which will make it a criminal offence for a priest who learns while hearing a confession about a case or cases of child abuse, from the abuser himself, not to break the seal of the confessional and inform the civil authorities of what he knows. The Criminal Justice (Withholding of Information on Offences Against Children and Vulnerable Persons) Bill is, says the Irish government, one element of a "suite of legislation to protect children and vulnerable adults to which the Government is committed".
It is the classic tension between the law of the state and the law of God: we are back, in Ireland of all places (Ireland, semper fidelis, Pope John Paul ironically called it), to Becket and Henry II. But the problems the Irish State is going to have with this legislation will not be solved by moving against one or more troublesome priests who resist it: the divided Irish Church will be as one in resisting it: not one single priest will obey it. Even the ultra-liberal Association of Catholic Priests has condemned the proposed legislation: "I certainly wouldn't be willing to break the seal of Confession for anyone," was the reaction of Fr Sean McDonagh, one of the ACP's leaders.
Of course he wouldn't. It's the one thing no Catholic priest would ever do; it's in the basic DNA of the priesthood. According to article 1467 of the Catechism of the Catholic Church: "Given the delicacy and greatness of this ministry and the respect due to persons, the Church declares that every priest who hears Confessions is bound under very severe penalties to keep absolute secrecy regarding the sins that his penitents have confessed to him. He can make no use of knowledge that Confession gives him about penitents' lives. This secret, which admits of no exceptions, is called the 'sacramental seal', because what the penitent has made known to the priest remains 'sealed' by the sacrament."
Those "very severe penalties" are severe indeed, as severe as it gets: the Code of Canon Law is very clear: "A confessor who directly violates the seal of Confession incurs an automatic excommunication reserved to the Apostolic See": that means that he loses the most precious things in his life: he loses both the sacraments of the Church and the exercise of his priesthood, and also that these things can be restored to him only by the Pope himself. As Fr William Saunders puts it: "A priest … cannot break the seal to save his own life, to protect his good name, to refute a false accusation, to save the life of another, to aid the course of justice (like reporting a crime), or to avert a public calamity. He cannot be compelled by law to disclose a person's confession or be bound by any oath he takes, eg as a witness in a court trial. A priest cannot reveal the contents of a Confession either directly, by repeating the substance of what has been said, or indirectly, by some sign, suggestion, or action. A Decree from the Holy Office (Nov. 18, 1682) mandated that confessors are forbidden, even where there would be no revelation direct or indirect, to make any use of the knowledge obtained in the Confession that would 'displease' the penitent or reveal his identity."
We know that all, of course: but more importantly, so does the Irish government. So what are they playing at? Well, politics, of course. They want to back the Irish Church even further into the very hard place it at present inhabits, by making it look as though the Church doesn't even want to confront the problem of clerical child abuse. "I would expect," says Mr Shatter, "that if there was someone going to Confession who was a serial sex abuser, I don't know how anyone could live with their conscience if they didn't refer that to the gardai." So it's now a matter of conscience that a priest should betray his priesthood.
But suppose the clergy said they would inform on a child abuser? The child abuser wouldn't be in the confessional in the first place if he didn't want to face up to what he had done. And as David Quinn has pointed out: "No child abuser will go to a priest in Confession knowing the priest is required to inform the police. But cutting off the avenue of confession to a child abuser makes it less likely that he will talk to someone who can persuade him to take the next step." The next step is himself to go to the police: it does happen. A confessor may and should try to convince him of that; but he will never get the chance if abusers are scared away from the confessional.
It is the very identity, the raison d'etre of the Church the Irish State is now bent on weakening: but this is a battle they will lose. In defence of the seal of the confessional, of the law of God over the law of the state, saints and martyrs over the ages have gone to their deaths. No Irish priest will lose his life over this: but if the Irish State wants to turn the Irish clergy from being perceived by Irish public opinion as perpetrators or at least collaborators to being seen (as were Catholic priests of earlier centuries, both in Ireland and also here in England) as victims of an unjust law, let it be so: a few dozen Irish priests in jail could both restore the Church's reputation for self-sacrifice and integrity and even serve as a kind of vicarious penance for what is past, the innocent suffering for the guilty. If they really want a cause célèbre, in which the Church is victimised by the State, I say bring it on.
I have a small statue, which I bought in Prague shortly after I became a Catholic over 20 years ago, of St John Nepomuk, who might be described as the Thomas à Becket of the Bohemian Church. St John was the vicar general to the Archbishop of Prague. King Wenceslas IV, a dissolute, capricious and easily enraged young man, became suspicious that his virtuous Queen was involved in a sexual intrigue with a courtier. St John was the Queen's confessor. Although Wenceslas (definitely not Good King Wenceslas) was himself extremely promiscuous, he became increasingly jealous of his wife. Wencelas tortured St John to force him to reveal the content of the Queen's confessions. In the end, St John was thrown into the River Vltava and drowned, on March 20, 1393. I bought my little statue of him from an old lady on the Charles Bridge in Prague, at the very spot where, according to tradition, St John was thrown to his death. As I write, it stands on my desk.
No Irish priest, as I say, will lose his life over this. But I really hope the Irish government presses on with this astonishing and unique legislation, and that the courts uphold it. Then we shall see what the Irish Church is really made of. Irish Catholics will be united by it: and in the end, the government will have to back down.

Partisan finger-pointing over immigration policy on Tuesday left the US Congress and the White House stumbling closer to a possible federal government shutdown by the end of the week, although Wall Street held out hopes for a deal to prevent that.
Republicans who control Congress are expected to try to push another stopgap funding bill and get it to President Donald Trump's desk before Friday's midnight deadline. But there are perils.
Conservatives want a large increase in defense spending that such a bill would not provide. Many Democrats might withhold their support unless immigration policy is addressed.
Meanwhile, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell warned that a government funding bill should not be held "hostage" to the immigration debate. And the White House director of legislative affairs, Marc Short, told reporters there was "no artificial timeline" for a deal on so-called Dreamers and that it would be "herculean" to get it done by this week.
The negotiating climate has become increasingly poisonous after a sudden halt last week in talks toward a deal to shield the Dreamers – immigrants brought into the country illegally as children – from deportation. The Republican president rejected a bipartisan agreement reached by a group of senators.
Divisions between Republicans and Democrats then deepened amid an uproar over Trump's reported use of the word "shithole" when speaking about African countries last week. Trump has denied using that word. The head of the influential Congressional Hispanic Caucus expressed her opposition to the bipartisan Senate deal, although she said she had not seen its text and noted it had some positive aspects.
"In its current form I'm probably a no," Representative Michelle Lujan Grisham said in an interview. The Democrat said she will back a narrower bipartisan House of Representatives bill. The Senate approach, Lujan Grisham said, would reduce the parents of Dreamers to "second-class citizens" because they would receive temporary protections and no pathway to citizenship, as well as other problems.
Republican Senator Lindsay Graham on Tuesday blamed White House staff for altering Trump's positive view on the Senate bipartisan agreement on the Deferred Action for Childhood Arrivals (DACA) program that protects the Dreamers. "I will say I don't think the president was well-served by his staff," Graham said.
House Republicans were scheduled to huddle on Tuesday night to try to figure out how best to avoid a government shutdown, congressional aides said. If a temporary "continuing resolution" to keep the government operating results, it would be the fourth such measure since the 2018 federal fiscal year began on Oct. 1, a sign of Washington's serious struggles to pass spending legislation.
Analyst Ed Mills at financial firm Raymond James said another short-term extension is expected. "This is likely to be a week of brinkmanship and the potential of a government shutdown is elevated. Should a shutdown occur, we do not expect much of a market reaction," Mills noted. 'KICK THE CAN' No. 2 House Democrat Steny Hoyer said Democrats have not decided whether they will support another continuing resolution and "can kick the can down the road one more time."
The slim Republican margin of control in the US Senate means Trump's party will need some Democratic support to resolve the government funding stand-off. Democrats have said they want a spending bill that protects the Dreamer immigrants, mostly Hispanic young adults.
Talks also continued on related issues, including how to fund a children's healthcare program and to establish higher spending caps for the US military and other domestic programs. House Energy and Commerce Chairman Greg Walden was pushing for a six-year reauthorization of the Children's Health Insurance Program (CHIP) to be passed this week, possibly as part of a stopgap spending bill, a House Republican aide said.
Trump and Democratic Senator Dick Durbin have traded accusations over the collapse of the immigration talks. Durbin intends to introduce the bipartisan agreement as legislation on Wednesday, spokesman Ben Marter said. But it was not yet clear whether Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell would schedule it for a floor debate and vote.
Trump said in September he was terminating the DACA program, launched by his Democratic predecessor Barack Obama, effective in March. Congress has until then to pass legislation to protect the roughly 700,000 Dreamers from deportation and give them work permits.
Trump said he was willing to make a deal to help the Dreamers but insisted that funding for border security, including his long-promised wall along the US-Mexican border opposed by Democrats, be included in any spending package. The bipartisan deal called for $2.7 billion for an array of border security steps.
"The Democrats want to shut down the Government over Amnesty for all and Border Security. The biggest loser will be our rapidly rebuilding Military, at a time we need it more than ever," Trump wrote on Twitter. Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer countered in a speech on the Senate floor: "If you want to begin the long road back to prove you're not prejudiced or bigoted, support the bipartisan compromise that three Democrats and three Republicans have put before you."

116 North Jensen Road, Vestal, NY 13850
Phone: 607-798-5155
People spend roughly one-third of their lives asleep, so quality of sleep directly affects quality of life. Studies show that one out of three Americans has a sleep disorder that contributes to potentially life-threatening mistakes and accidents on or off the job. The good news is that once detected, most sleep disorders can be corrected.
If you have trouble falling asleep, staying asleep, or remaining awake, the Sleep Lab can help.
The types of problems treated through this program include:
- Sleep Apnea
- Snoring
- Oxygenation Problems
- Insomnia
As the technology, research, and field of Sleep Medicine grows - so have we. We continue to provide state of the art, cutting edge equipment through which we can collect information while the patient sleeps quietly and comfortably and at the same time, allow the physician immediate access to information. We continually update the education of our staff of certified respiratory therapists, Registered Polysomnographic Technologists, and Board eligible Polysomnographic Technicians.
Our lab has 8 beds that accommodate patients 5 nights a week. These private rooms have a quiet and comfortable home like atmosphere for patients to spend the night. Each room has amenities that make a patient's stay as pleasant as possible, such as:
- Premium mattresses designed for different body types and styles of sleep.
- Private bathrooms and showers.
- Recliners for patients who can't sleep laying down.
- Flat panel televisions.
- Mission style wood furniture
Our rooms have queen size beds, beds for smaller frames and children, and special mattresses designed for support and comfort. The private bathrooms all have a roomy fully mirrored vanity area and an area for hair dryers, etc., for our patients who leave for work from the facility. There is also an area for patient caregivers to spend the night (when necessary). A light snack and/or coffee in the morning is available at the patient's request.
Working closely with Lourdes Health Support enables patients to quickly acquire any item needed or prescribed by the physician. This provides patients with continuity of care within the Lourdes system (for those who choose it). Even after patients have gone home and had their prescriptions filled, the Sleep Disorders Lab helps patients fine tune any and all compliance issues related to any therapy prescribed by the physician.

Double 1-2 for Lemartinel in Abu Dhabi
The ultra powerful Eric Lemartinel yard was in good form as always at Abu Dhabi on Sunday and the trainer saddled a 1-2 in the 2200m handicap on Sunday evening.
Gerald Avranche was victorious on top-weight Dahes who was able to hold off the late challenge from stable companion Mooser.
Avranche said: "That was getting a bit close late on but he has held on well. I was in front a bit sooner than ideal but he has responded well."
Lemartinel was back in the winner`s enclosure after the following 2200m maiden and was again responsible for first and second. However, Avranche had to settle for second having tried to make all on Neferman, only to be denied close home by Chase Me under Tadhg O`Shea in a race they dominated.
It was the jockey`s first winner of the season in the Capital and he said: "That was a fair performance from a young, inexperienced horse. He should be capable of building on that.
"It is nice to get off the mark here (Abu Dhabi) for the season."
O`Shea promptly doubled his Abu Dhabi tally for the campaign on the Gill Duffield-trained Al Mannsoub on whom he committed for home 800m out. His mount responded well and held on gamely from old rival Samira De Carrere behind whom they had finished on their previous start.
It was a winner for O`Shea`s main patron His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Rashid Al Maktoum and O`Shea was clearly delighted: "It`s nice when a plan works and I was determined to try and kick away a long way out and use his stamina. Luckily it worked though the final 100m felt a long way!"
The only Thoroughbred race was the concluding 2400m handicap and apprentice Harry Bentley rode his first winner on the track on the Satish Seemar-trained Achill Bay. Bentley has made a good start to his UAE career and this was a third winner for the season.
He said: "I have had a really good start and am loving it here in Dubai. I can only thank Mr Seemar and everybody who has made it possible."
Racing opened with a 1600m maiden and the Tony Manuel-trained Etihad needed every one of those metres to open his account at the second time of asking. Jesus Rosales looked to have the race won on Barood Al Reef until Pat Cosgrave managed to drive Manuel`s charge in front right on the line to register his first UAE victory.
The jockey said: "The horse was green coming out of the stalls but I was lucky to get a lead. He has knuckled down in the straight and battled all the way to the line."
Royston Ffrench has made a great start to the new campaign and Meshwar became a first winner for rookie trainer Adam Aghbash when winning the 1600m handicap. Never far off the pace, Ffrench took his mount to the front turning for home and the pair were clear 200m out and were always going to hold on from a fast closing pack.
Ffrench said: "I went for home as we were left in front and he responded well. I could hear them closing but was never really worried about being caught."

A south Florida couple has been arrested after allegedly assaulting a Dunkin' Donuts employee who got their order wrong, The Miami-Herald reports.
Lauderhill Police arrested 27-year-old Jeffrey Wright for aggravated battery with a deadly weapon and 22-year-old Alexis Longo for simple battery.
After going through the drive-thru, Longo discovered vanilla in her coffee instead of the caramel she ordered. Wright then parked the car and went inside to ask for a manager.
"The girl came in, she was getting upset. She was screaming at me, just cursing at me," Rajay Hall, the Dunkin' Donuts employee, told NBC Miami. "I made a mistake."
He attempted to apologize and correct the error. Instead, he said, Longo continued to curse at him as the confrontation escalated. The entire ordeal was captured on a security camera.
The Sun-Sentinal has more:
Wright got involved and witnesses attempted to break up the fight, the report said. Then Wright — who works as a security guard and carries a concealed weapons permit, according to an assistant public defender — reached for his gun.
"During the course of the altercation, it says you retrieved your firearm, a 9mm Taurus handgun with seven rounds in the magazine and one in the chamber," Judge John "Jay" Hurley said during Wright's first-appearance court hearing Wednesday. "This all happened in front of the customers at Dunkin' Donuts."
Some customers attempted to break up the fight before police could arrive. According to Lt. Michael Butkus, several witnesses also said that Longo told Wright he should shoot the manager.
Bond for Wright was set at $20,000, while Longo's was set at $1,000.

The Arizona Cardinals will check in on the availability of San Francisco 49ers quarterback Alex Smith. They just don't expect much to come of it.
NFL.com's Ian Rapoport reported Tuesday on "NFL Total Access" that the Cardinals are interested in Smith, but they are extremely pessimistic a deal with the Niners will happen because they share the same division.
The Cardinals -- like the rest of the football world -- believe the Kansas City Chiefs are the frontrunners to land Smith. That won't stop Arizona from inquiring. One source told Rapoport: "Nothing to lose."
Rapoport has been told the Cleveland Browns also are "in the picture."
This all makes sense. Despite a Sunday report that a Smith deal was "effectively complete," the 49ers would be foolish to turn their backs on another team that might offer a better package than the Chie -- sorry, mystery team.

COVENTRY, R.I., Sept. 29 (UPI) -- A 12-year-old boy from Rhode Island was suspended from school for carrying a small gun key chain to school, his mother said.
Joseph Lyssikatos brought the key chain to Alan Shawn Feinstein Middle School in Coventry on Thursday, WJAR-TV, Providence, R.I., reported.
The boy said the key chain, which is slightly larger than a quarter, fell out of his backpack during class and another boy picked it up and began showing it off.
"This boy was the one waving it or showing it to other kids. Not Joseph. Joseph wasn't doing that so why weren't both of them reprimanded," said Bonnie Bonanno, Joseph's mother.
The school said in a statement that said, "Because this is a student discipline issue, we cannot comment on any specifics."
Along with being suspended for three days, Joseph has been barred from going on a class field trip to Salem, Mass., Bonanno said.
"That's disgraceful because, OK, being suspended for three days, and this big punishment is enough for him mentally," Bonanno said.
Said Joseph: "I'm missing the NECAP testing and I'm in advanced math so I'm going to have to re-do all the homework I'm going to miss for advanced math."

Fran Gercke, Brian Mackey, Shana Wride, and Ruff Yeager sit at a table. No, they are not planning world domination via the theatre, although given the breadth and depth of their collective experience, that task would not be too far out of their reach.
Instead, they are thoughtfully pondering a lengthy list of plays, both classical and contemporary, written by a wide range of playwrights. They have been tasked with one simple challenge.
Pick 12.
When Intrepid first opened its doors in 2009, along with the mainstage productions came the idea of staged readings – opportunities to hear plays in an intimate setting, presented by accomplished actors, lead by passionate directors, and accented with flavorful wine and tasty hors d'oeuvres.
The success of these sporadic readings was so much that, this time last year, the City of Encinitas offered Intrepid a standing spot in the ocean-view community reading room at the Encinitas Library in which to present an yearlong season of staged readings.
"Intrepid is helping us realize this longstanding preference of the residents to experience live theatre," said City of Encinitas Arts Administrator Jim Gilliam of the city's first and only professional theatre company.
Now, one year later, as 2013 and the inaugural season of the Staged Reading Series winds to a close, Intrepid and the City can see a plethora of accomplishments in the creative wake of this communal endeavor.
Among the playwrights featured this year were the likes of Moisés Kaufman, Jane Anderson, John Patrick Shanley, David Mamet, Arthur Miller, and, of course, William Shakespeare. The monthly readings on the whole hired more than 80 talented local actors, as well as eight directors culled from the most influential players across San Diego's ever-expanding theatre scene.
For many, participation in a staged reading marked a debut with the company. Other faces were more recognizable to the subscribers who regularly attended the readings as well as the mainstage productions. Audiences embraced the readings, returned month after month, and were rarely hesitant to offer standing ovations at the conclusion of any given evening.
With this success of the series, the City was eager to renew the staged reading series contract with Intrepid for 2014. However, Artistic Directors Sean and Christy Yael-Cox knew that if Intrepid was to commit to another year, they had to harness and build upon the sense of community involvement the readings had inspired.
That's when the idea of a Staged Reading Committee came into being. Instead of Sean and Christy deciding the playlist for a year, the reading series would be handled by a team of respected actors and directors who, from the benefit of their varied perspectives, would create, direct, and cast the 2014 season of staged readings for Intrepid.
Cut to the lengthy list of plays. While these four San Diego theatre notables may be scratching their heads about the 2014 compilation, one thing is certain. They are all excited to be at the table.
"I love the idea of committee-based theatre," says Shana Wride, who directed the reading of Yasmina Reza's "Life(x)3" this year. "To be part of a group of like-minded talented people and be allowed such a wonderful creative outlet is a real treat."
In addition to choosing plays that are favorites, the team has endeavored to pick selections that are new to them and, hopefully, to audiences. This is one of the advantages of working as an ensemble and acquainting fellow committee-members with unfamiliar plays.
Fran Gercke, most recently seen as John in Intrepid's mainstage production of "Oleanna," says this is one of the best parts of the process.
"I am excited about the ability to read new work and hopefully introduce the audience to a whole host of characters and a whole world they've not known before, about which they've no ideas, no preconceptions," says Fran, who directed the reading of Sam Shepard's "Geography of a Horse-Dreamer" this past year. "It's always fun when there's a thriller aspect, a who-done-it quality to every story so that you're always wondering where is this going and how is this going to end. New stories provide that."
While a staged reading is rehearsed, it is comparatively easier to present than a mainstage show. Therefore, the opportunity to perform big budget plays in this simplified environment – leaving much to the imagination – is also appealing.
"It is amazing to me how just listening to a play can, and has, elicited such strong, positive responses from audience members," says Brian Mackey, who directs the yearly reading of "A Christmas Carol," the reading series season finale.
Fran agrees. "I get caught up in staged readings because they invite me, almost magically and with little effort, to imagine much of what is happening," he says. "That's not so common anymore."
From collaboration to imagination, the staged reading series is ultimately an opportunity to do the thing that everyone loves to do.
Ruff Yeager, who portrayed John Barrymore in this year's reading of Paul Rudnick's "I Hate Hamlet," says it simply. "I am looking forward to working with incredible actors on a play I really love."
Add in a little wine and cheese, and you've got yourself a recipe for a successful 2014 Staged Reading Series.

Deciding how much to ask for your home isn't as easy as checking its approximate value on some of the popular real estate websites. Every seller wants to attain the best possible price and terms. But it's not just location, location, location that determines the maximum amount for any home on the market.
Experienced real estate agents know that pricing a home appropriately from the start is critical to getting it sold quickly, and at the best price. Research from the National Association of REALTORS® shows that overpricing your home and then dropping the price several times while it sits on the market usually leads to selling it at a much lower price than what you originally should have asked for it. The longer a home is on the market, the deeper the discount is likely to be off the original price.
A good real estate agent will know a neighborhood's market conditions, the average days its homes are on the market, comparable sales prices, and other vital factors, which is why hiring a licensed real estate agent is usually your best choice for helping to set your home's listing price.
Don't be tempted to select a sales professional who suggests the highest price for your property. Instead, consider the agent who provides the best comparative market analysis and an explanation of how your home should be priced. That agent is more likely to sell your home quicker and for a higher price than one who tells you only what you want to hear.
Here are a few things a comparative market analysis should include:
An experienced real estate agent will factor in all of these issues in the context of your local market conditions, including whether home prices are rising or falling, and whether it's a buyer's or seller's market.
When you choose the right professional to help you with your home sale, and then listen to his or her advice, your transaction is more likely to come together quickly and smoothly from the very start.
Once your home is priced to sell, don't waste any time getting it ready for buyers.
Read more on how to prepare your home for sale.

Or that they judge people as being equivocally good or bad without any nuance.
Or sometimes it's just nice to show up to a call like that and find that somebody isn't beating the hell out of somebody else... or it might have been because he answered the door and didn't immediately throw something or start screaming at them... Domestic abuse cases absolutely suck most of the time, regardless of who is doing what; and much of the time they're catching hell from both the victim and the abuser.
In all seriousness, for the cops who respond to those sorts of calls, having someone merely answer the door and explain that they're stressed can be the highlight of their day.

Although the agent for free agent linebacker James Harrison says the door is open to a return to Pittsburgh, the Steelers apparently don't agree.
Ed Bouchette of the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette reports that the Steelers have informed Harrison that they no longer are interested in him playing for them in 2013.
Harrison doesn't appear to have many other good options, either. Although he was hoping for a chance in Baltimore, the Ravens apparently closed the door on Harrison after they signed Elvis Dumervil.
In an offseason when several pass rushers who are younger and healthier and come with less baggage than Harrison have had to settle for lower-than-expected offers, the market for Harrison doesn't look great right now. The 34-year-old Harrison was once among the NFL's most fearsome pass rushers, but he's coming off a season in which he recorded just 6.0 sacks, his lowest total since becoming a starter in 2007.
Harrison will presumably sign with some team eventually, but when he does, he may end up wishing he had accepted the 30 percent pay cut the Steelers were offering him a few weeks ago.

Prairie Rattlesnake
Prairie rattlesnakes can be found in the prairies. During the summertime prairie rattlesnakes are in the prairies, and during fall they like to lie in rocky outcrops with southern exposure to absorb heat from the sun.
Prairie rattlesnakes like to eat things such as rodents, birds, other reptiles and amphibians. Raptors, other predatory birds and badgers like to eat prairie rattlesnakes.
The largest prairie rattlesnake recorded was approximately 6 feet (1.8 meters) long; however the average size is around 3 feet (.9 meters) long. Males tend to be longer and heavier than female prairie rattlesnakes.

There are a lot of common misconceptions when it comes to math. A common one that has already been addressed on this site is $1 \neq .999\cdots$, as is that imaginary numbers "do not exist". Another one which I have encountered is that one can prove $2 = 1$ using calculus as follows:
$$2 = \frac{\frac{d}{dx}(x^2)}{x} = \frac{\left(\frac{d}{dx}\left(\sum\limits_{n=1}^x x \right)\right)}{x} = \frac{\left(\sum\limits_{n=1}^x \frac{d}{dx}(x)\right)}{x}= \frac{\left(\sum\limits_{n=1}^x 1\right)}{x} = \frac{x}{x} = 1$$
And that because of this calculus is somehow "wrong". This example can be countered by either noting that $\sum_{n=1}^x x$ isn't even a function on the real numbers, much less differentiable, or noting that since $x$ isn't constant the third step is invalid. My question is, what are some other common mathematical misconceptions that people have, and how can they be combated?

P Minor of a Purim Paparazzi
Instead of joining an exasperated press probing into prominent people's privacies, I will pursue celebrities like King Ahasuerus, Queen Esther and Vashti of Persia. I will serve a much greater purpose by presenting a better picture, or portrait, of the Megillah's principal personalities. It gives me the opportunity to report on the grand procession of Mordechai, Haman and his sons Parshandatha, Parmashta and Poratha, to name only three. Now, with the approach of Purim, I prefer to devote my expertise to promote the proper performance of the Purim procedures and its prerequisites.

The football season is on, and so is the rush to football-related social media.
We found the nerve center for 49ers information inside Campbell's Orchard Valley Coffee Shop, typing away at his latest football exclusive. Ryan Sakamoto, 49ers blogger extraordinaire, knocking out stories for more than 12,000 daily Facebook followers who check in on his blog, www.ninerfans.com.
Sure, being an insurance salesman pays most of Ryan's bills, but thanks to advertising and merchandise, the blog is starting to make money, too. Especially since his exclusive with Wide Receiver Quinton Patton, a player Sakamoto picked to go far before anyone else heard of him. He's since given Patton the nickname "7-11," as in Kaepernick (#7) to Patton (#11).
It's the kind of thing that helps Sakamoto rise above other bloggers. It's also the kind of thing that gets him excited about football. Not just the big score, but knowing something about everything that goes on with the 49ers. While we were talking in the coffeeshop, in walks former lineman Dave Fiore - completely unrecognized, except for Sakamoto, who jumped up to talk to him. Both of their days were made.
"it's been my passion since my parents started taking me to games when I was 8," says Sakamoto. And what's cooler, insurance, or blogging? "Come, on," he laughs. "No contest. This is awesome." Then, he closes up his laptop, off to talk football and chase another exclusive.

Watching the Republican presidential primary debate last night, I heard many of the candidates say they'd be the second coming of Ronald Reagan. But what they said sounded a lot more like the second coming of George W. Bush, he of the "worst jobs record on record" according to the Wall Street Journal.
To show you what I mean, I'll use my trusty "Bush-o-Meter" to translate what the candidates said last night, and quantify it's Bushiness on a scale from 1 to 10.
PERRY: You look at the state of Texas and see what we've done there from the standpoint of lowering that tax burden, the regulatory climate in the state of Texas. We've taken those types of regulation off the throat of small business operators.
Translation: Like the last decade, let's cut more taxes for the wealthy, enforce fewer regulations on business, create wider inequality, and set the stage for another colossal financial crisis.
Bush-o-Meter Rating: 10
ROMNEY: I know what you have to do is make America the most attractive place in the world for business, and that means our corporate tax rates, our employer tax rates have to be competitive. Small business pays at the highest rate. We need to get those rates down to globally competitive levels. Number two, government and regulators have to be allies of business, not foes. Number three, we've got to become energy secure in this country. Number four, we have to have trade policies that work for us, not just for the other guys, and crack down on cheaters like China.
Translation: Like the last decade, let's cut taxes for the wealthy, enforce fewer regulations on business, forget about clean energy, forget about the BP spill and let's drill even more. Let's also use campaign rhetoric on China that is unlikely to matter once elected, as Bush did in 2000 when he needled China as a "strategic competitor" then did nothing to challenge its trade strategies.
Bush-o-Meter Rating: 10
CAIN: May I offer a solution for Social Security, rather than continuing to talk about what to call it? I have proposed the Chilean model. It's been around 30 years, and it works. It's a personal retirement account.
Translation: Let's privatize Social Security like Bush wanted to, so Wall Street can invest our retirement funds in fraudulent mortgages.
Bush-o-Meter Rating: 10.
HUNTSMAN: We're going to have to fix our taxes. And we put forward a program endorsed by the Wall Street Journal that phases out for individuals all the loopholes, all the deductions, and creates three rates, 8, 14, 23.
Translation: You can never cut taxes for the wealthy enough. Look how awesome it worked the time.
Bush-o-Meter Rating: 10
CAIN: …my 9, 9, 9 plan is a bold solution. It starts with throw out the current tax code and pass 9 percent business flat tax, 9 percent personal income tax, and the 9% national sales tax. This is the most important part, it eliminates, or replaces corporate income tax, personal income tax, capital gains tax as well as the estate tax.
TRANSLATION: You can never cut taxes for the wealthy enough. Look how awesome it worked the time.
Bush-o-Meter Rating: 10
BACHMANN: I think you earned every dollar. You should get to keep every dollar that you earn. That's your money; that's not the government's money.
Translation: As Bush said when campaigning for his tax cuts for the wealthy: "That money isn't the government's money, it's the people's money."
Bush-o-Meter Rating: 1,000,000

Imagine a world in which an Apple portable called Pippin rules the video game industry. Nintendo and Sony are nothing more than petrified corpses after a surprise attack from Cupertino vaporizes their platforms with a portable device so simple, so magical, that Michael Spindler would have let John Sculley waterboard him with Pepsi to make it a reality.
That's the world imagined by Mike Donovan, a New York City designer who draws faux prototypes of everything from retro iPads to iPhones based on the iMac G3. His retrotastic mockup of the gaming gadget that never was, which he shared exclusively with Cult of Mac, takes the concept of Apple's failed Pippin video game platform to its logical, period-appropriate extension.
"We're inundated with new tech choices at almost every turn but there is something so alluring about the fun and simplicity of those early '80s and '90s gadgets," Donovan told Cult of Mac. "Plus, who doesn't love a good throwback?"
