Pharma R&D Today
Ideas and Insight supporting all stages of Drug Discovery & Development
Focus on Nutraceuticals & Natural Products: Medical Use of Cannabis
Posted on July 5th, 2017 by Dr. Makarand Jawadekar, Ph.D in Pharma R&D
These days, there is a lot of focus on nutraceuticals and 'natural products', derived from nature or alternately synthesized as 'nature-identical compounds' and used in nutraceuticals products.
Many of the FDA-approved (about one third) products are derived from natural (plant/animal) sources. However, most of these pharmaceutical products are synthesized in a way which makes a task easier for quality assurance reasons, as well as for retaining batch-to-batch consistency. This allows one to have a reference standard, where a pure drug can be identified and verified every time a batch is manufactured.
The way I am defining pharmaceutical product is one that needs to go through characterization of the active ingredient, do an exhaustive pre-clinical testing in multiple animal species to ensure animal safety as well as see efficacy in lab animals. Additionally, it means conducting a variety of testing to develop ADME, pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamics studies. This also includes understanding mechanism of action of the drug to understand basic pharmacology of the compound. After having done all the pre-clinical work, then one needs to file an IND (Investigational New Drug) Application to the FDA. When a clinical investigation focuses on an endpoint involving the cure, mitigation, prevention, treatment or diagnosis of disease, the IND process for the pharmaceutical R&D comes into play.
However, the way nutraceuticals or natural products are defined, when the product contains a single or multiple active ingredients, the focus of the study is solely on the function of the human body and no disease endpoint is implied or the endpoint falls within the scope of a 'healthy claim' or 'medical food', and then the IND requirements defined above do not come into play. The regulatory requirements for nutraceuticals are around purity and quality. There are no medical 'cure' or 'endpoint' claims or labeling claims that are expected to be included in the package. One can only say that the capsule or a tablet "supports" or is useful for maintaining a healthy condition.
Now with a recent focus on cannabis and its potential use for medical purposes, there are already many potential cannabis-based drugs in the pharma pipeline at various stages of development. Christopher Cunningham & Missy Lowery just published a review article in AAPS Magazine (June 2017 issue), where they have provided a detailed table, which summarizes the current drugs undergoing the regulatory approval process: Marinol, Sativex and Syntros for various AIDS-associated conditions and MS plasticity.
According to them, there are five products undergoing clinical trials. These are Epidiolex (CBD, oral solution), Insys Pharma CBD oral solution for Dravet Syndrome, CBD Gel for Epilepsy, CBD Gum (Can Chew) for IBS and CBDV extract for focal seizures. In addition to these in clinical studies, they have also listed four compounds in pre-clinical development, namely for neuropathic pain, intra ocular pressure, ulcerative colitis and traumatic brain injury. These are all in the pharma R&D project pipeline.
Of course, there are nutraceutical companies working on some of the naturally-derived Cannabinoid actives, where application of novel drug delivery paths would allow better compliance and better controlled release action for the patient's convenience. These companies will obviously have an alternate path for progression, supposedly quicker than the pharmaceutical R&D path. Before they proceed, they will need a clear policy guidance from state and federal legislative branches.
In early March 2017, Jay Syrmopoulos published the following post and explained the current status (in italics below):
In an effort to push back against repressive federal control of marijuana policy, bipartisan legislation was introduced in Congress by representatives Tom Garrett (R-VA) and Tulsi Gabbard (D-HI) to exclude cannabis from the federal Controlled Substances Act (CSA), which absurdly lists marijuana as a Schedule 1 substance — a classification that denotes a substance being dangerous and having no known medicinal value.
Passage of this legislation would provide states with the exclusive authority to regulate marijuana how they see fit – without the ominous threat of federal criminalization. In a prepared statement, Rep. Garrett explained that states are "more than capable" of deciding what policies best benefit their own citizens – without the need for federal oversight. If passed, this bill would take marijuana off the federal controlled substances list – joining other industries such as alcohol and tobacco. Passage of the "Ending Marijuana Prohibition Act of 2017" would remove cannabis from the CSA so that it would no longer be listed as a substance regulated by federal law. This bipartisan legislation would empower states to establish their own marijuana regulations, which would allow for more flexibility in creating policy.
Let us see where this legislative process leads us to. There are for sure obvious medical benefits that everyone sees and it all depends upon how the federal government and states collaborate on these regulations so that the patient gets the real value from cannabis, which was not possible in the past, due to its inclusion in CSA.

Minnesota comes one step closer to enshrining discrimination in the state constitution. The House Committee on Rules and Administration narrowly voted 13-12 to advance a constitutional ban on same-sex marriage to the full chamber. The vote was met with vocal protests, reports the Minnesota Independent.
One Republican, Rep. Tim Kelly of Red Wing, joined the DFL in voting against the measure. DFLers pleaded with Republicans on the committee. "The founding fathers warned against tyranny of majority," said Rep. Kathy Brynaert, DFL-Mankato. "Don't do this."
Rep. Kate Knuth, DFL-New Brighton, said. "Why take away rights in our constitution? Why tear the people of our state apart? It makes me physically ill to think of the division we'll see."
Rep. Carolyn Laine, DFL-Columbia Heights, said, "Clearly this isn't about the sanctity of marriage; it's about discrimination."
As the roll call was being taken, several protesters shouted "Shame!" and "You are damaging my life and my family!" One was dragged from the committee room.
The bill now heads to a House floor vote. If it passes the House, the amendment will appear on the 2012 ballot.
A majority of Minnesotans oppose amending the state Constitution to ban same-sex marriage, according to a Star Tribune-Minnesota Poll released last week.

Well, the snow is sticking around up in my hometown and it's getting darn chilly here in Vancouver. Time to dust off the slow cooker!
Some things don't go over well with me when it comes to slow cooking foods. I need the right recipe. I don't like it when all the vegetables start to taste the same and get all mushy. That being said, there are many fabulous recipes out there. They usually revolve around he same theme: warm, hearty and they pair well with fresh, hot biscuits!
I'm a big fan of yorkshire puddings, but I can never make them as good as my grandma so I have given up and turned to biscuits (not much of a compromise)! These biscuits in particular are very delicious. There's something about fresh dill that just takes recipes to that next level (just like this beet hummus), it's one of my favorite herbs.
Fresh herbs are also packed with nutrition and flavonoids. If you buy a big bunch and don't use them all puree them into a pesto and freeze, or freeze them flat on a cookie sheet and then put them in a bag in the freezer for later use.
Dill, Feta & Cheddar Drop Biscuits
Yield: 10 biscuits
- 1 cup whole wheat pastry flour
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp baking powder
- 1 tbsp sugar
- scant 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp garlic powder
- 1/3 cup fresh dill, chopped
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- A few grinds fresh pepper
- 6 tbsp cold butter
- 1 cup milk, very cold
- 1.5 cup shredded light cheddar cheese and feta (I used half and half)
1. Preheat oven to 425F and line a large baking sheet with parchment paper.
2. Whisk the flours, baking powder, sugar, salt, and garlic powder together in a large bowl.
3. Using a pastry cutter, cut the cold butter into the dry ingredients until it's the size of small peas. Make sure not to leave any large chunks.
4. Pour cold milk over the dry ingredients/butter mixture and stir until just combined. You may need to add a tablespoon or two more milk. Fold in the herbs and cheese.
5. Drop about 10 biscuits on the baking sheet, leaving 2-3 inches between each biscuit. Bake for 10 minutes, rotate the pan, and then bake for an additional 8-10 minutes longer watching closely. Biscuits are ready when golden. Serve warm.

LAS VEGAS (Reuters) – Amazon.com Inc on Tuesday said it was starting a new antenna service for uploading and downloading data from satellites, in a bid to lure more space industry customers to the cloud.
The world's No. 1 cloud computing company said it was aiming to make data transfers to and from satellites cheaper and easier through ground stations associated with its data centers across the globe. It listed Lockheed Martin Corp as one of the customers or partners already previewing the service.
"It's not so simple dealing with satellites if you actually want to be able to upload and download data," Andy Jassy, Amazon Web Services' chief executive, said in Las Vegas announcing the service, which he called a "total game changer for how people can interact with satellites."

Navajo Nation Confirms First Hantavirus Death of 2016
Published January 20, 2016
NAVAJO NATION —The Navajo Nation has confirmed the first Hantavirus death of 2016.
Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome is transmitted to people that come into contact with or breathe infected urine, droppings and/or saliva of wild mice, primarily deer mice. Anyone who comes into contact with rodents that carry Hantavirus is at risk of HPS. The illness is not spread from person to person.
Hantavirus Pulmonary Syndrome was first identified in 1993 when an outbreak of this infectious lung disease took place in the southwestern United States on the Navajo Indian Reservation.
The illness starts with fever, headache and muscle aches, and progresses rapidly to severe difficulty in breathing and, in some cases, death.
People should make sure to rodent-proof their homes to prevent infected mice from coming inside.
When cleaning rodent droppings, people should use a mask, disinfectant and gloves.

The early stages of building any model are critical. If key components aren't straight, square, level and perfectly aligned from the start, then no amount of fiddling will ever put them right and the model will never run satisfactorily. Designed primarily for 4mm modellers with limited experience in loco construction, this two-day workshop aims to encourage best practice in the fundamentals of chassis-building. The Saturday session focuses on constructing the frames, while the Sunday workshop moves on to cover wheels, gearbox, pick-ups and wiring.
The Workshop includes sandwich lunches and unlimited light refreshments on both days.
The fee for this workshop is £135 and Friends of Pendon are entitled to a 10% discount.

Custom installation and custom built boxes for Cars, SUVs, RVs, ATVs, Boats, and Watercraft. Come by and visit with us about your car stereo desires. We will use that to custom design a system that would blow you away!
Audio Advice is dedicated to providing superior customer service in all our services that we perform. We have a passion for excellence, this is at the heart of our commitment. We use advanced technology and quality products that always offers a positive car care experience. Many drivers have trusted Audio Advice for years to keep their vehicles looking and sounding amazing.
An array of different stereos is always available with top name brands such as JL Audio and Kenwood along with AMPs and everything else that you might need for the sound system you need and desire. Stereos can include several features which are the most common such as Bluetooth, navigation and even backup camera.
Smart Car Stereo Receivers
The newest development in car stereo receivers is designing them to work (using Bluetooth or wired) with popular smartphone apps. These include streaming music services like Pandora, Spotify and iHeart radio. Most will connect automatically through Bluetooth when you get in your car and will allow you to view album art and browse through your playlists with a few swipes of your finger.
Some take it further incorporating Apple CarPlay and Android Auto compatibility. Android Auto in-dash receivers take what you need from your compatible Android phone and put it an easier-to-see, safer-to-use format accessible right on your dash. Android Auto also lets you "upgrade" your compatible in-dash DVD by sneaking voice-controlled Google Maps navigation from your phone into your non-navigation receiver.
Apple CarPlay lets you use your iPhone more safely in the car by adapting familiar apps and icons for your compatible in-dash receiver. CarPlay receivers also allow you to use Siri voice control to send and receive messages, make calls, play music and more – all without taking your eyes off the road
Car Stereo Speakers
Upgrading your speakers is an easy way to improve the overall sound of your car stereo. Car-Fi carries options to match the size of nearly all speakers found in factory locations. For those out there (especially our street rod customers) that want speakers where none existed before, our custom install department can fix you up.
Speaker upgrades are available in either full range replacements (single speaker producing all musical content) or component sets (separate low/mid range speakers coupled with separate tweeters). Component speaker systems allow for placement of the tweeter in a location that is optimum for sound reproduction. The better the tweeter is, the more special and realistic the music is. We have a wide variety of speakers actively hooked up for you to audition and experience the differences for yourself.
Car Stereo Subwoofers
Often the weakest link in a car stereo is the bass it does (or doesn't) put out. Full range speakers are too limited in size to effectively produce deep bass. Even how they are mounted can reduce bass output. That's where subwoofers come in. These are designed specifically for bass reproduction – they aren't used for full range sound. They are matched with enclosures built to help the subwoofer put out the maximum low end. Bass requires more power to produce those low long audio frequencies, so will you will also need to add an amplifier to the mix.
Stop by Car-Fi and let us show you how we can make the sound you're dreaming of a reality.
Your existing stereo system has power built in it but it can often be on the weak side. This will limit both the volume and sound quality you system can produce. Adding an outboard amplifier to the mix can help you get over these inadequacies. More output power will help you achieve higher volume levels and better musical clarity. Having more clean power available also can help to prevent damage to your speakers.
We strive to develop long-term relationships with customers in and outside of the Tulsa area. We provide the best customer service and the most appropriate solutions for your auto care needs. In addition, we always go the extra step and answer any questions and explain our work to you so you feel comfortable every step of the way.

Technological advancement has reinvented collaboration. Now is the perfect time for private equity and venture capital (VC) firms to benefit from collaboration partners and the appropriate collaborative tools that will seamlessly integrate their communication channels, ensure real-time information flow, and ultimately contribute to their desired results.
The challenge of picking the right support
The role of IT is prevalent in all disciplines of modern industry; from construction to software development, from healthcare to banking. IT's reach even extends to the dating industry. In order to perform the requisite operations and bring forth results, software support is necessary. The challenge, however, comes with picking the right support to match your field of expertise and the results you wish to attain. Start-ups and experienced IT players are working on various applications that match different platforms, system requirements, and deliverables. You can't choose all of them and deploy them for collaborative use, so how should you make the decision?
Video Collaboration - a gateway for real-time product understanding
The problem can best be solved by knowing application specifications; development, deployment and what each is able to achieve. Geographical diversification and other functional boundaries often discourage groups from deciding whether or not the collaboration is a successful one. Obliterating the barriers of collaboration can be done most effectively through video collaboration. Real-time product understanding, along with a cost-effective benefit, has been made simpler than ever before because of video collaboration.
Video Collaboration can unlock opportunities
Private equity and venture capital firms are finding video collaboration so useful for its ability to connect groups and the travel cost savings are an extra benefit. Once firms understand that applications are worth the investment, the potential for delivering the expected financial returns can be met. There are a number of applications that are being developed to meet the demands of private equity and venture capital firms, keeping in mind that it is impossible for these firms to visit all of their development centers in person, or to physically attend meetings with product development teams. Video collaboration allows teams to make the right decisions at the right time. Video collaboration solves problems through near real-life experiences that parties can share in the virtual world. Thanks to upscale video collaboration applications, groups can arrange video conferences at their mutual convenience, share presentations concerning product details, and achieve results and quicken the decision making process. Real-time demonstrations make it easier for investors to understand whether they should be go ahead with the deal or not. Once everything is set and collaborating parties are satisfied, a final face-to-face meeting can be organized for signing contracts.
Video Collaboration as fertile ground for investment
Private equity and venture capital firms should realize, furthermore, that video collaboration is worth the investment. It is useful for important decision-making. It should be noted that without video collaboration, enterprise mobility is significantly hampered. Enterprise mobility is one of the hottest trends on the modern industrial scene, and without the real-time interactivity that video collaboration provides, seamless connectivity within and outside of an enterprise doesn't really work. These factors are compelling investors to focus on emerging products and applications that improve the existing video collaboration efforts and integrate superior video collaboration support. Seeing is believing. And 'believing' happens faster if seeing happens real-time. Video collaboration tools, in this context, have made things really simple for private equity and venture capital firms, not to mention the thumbs up recently from the enterprises who have seen the return of their investment, and then some. Is there anything keeping you from investing in collaborative technology at this time? We'd love to learn from your experiences.

The entire Intranet, but especially Intranet Watch, has been set up so that you don't need to check back frequently to see if there is new content. We have several systems in place to automatically notify you - through services you already use - when new material is made available.
Think of these services as a bit like a magazine subscription. If you have such a subscription, it means that you have asked a magazine publisher to send you new editions of that magazine automatically. Rather than checking back at your local newsagent each day, the new edition is delivered straight to you as soon as it is ready.
Subscribing to Intranet Watch updates is exactly the same: if you subscribe to updates on the school intranet, you don't need to make the effort to check back to see if there is anything new for you. We'll let you know through the following services when there's new material that might interest you.
Email subscribers will receive an email in their inbox each day that summarises all the new updates that happened during that day. An example is shown below, on a day when three updates have been posted.
If there are no updates on a given day, then no email is sent out.
RSSSubscribing by RSS feed is a little more technically advanced, and not recommended for those who would rather receive updates with a minimum of fuss. Receiving RSS feed updates requires the use a feed reader, which is a service designed to collect updates from all kinds of websites (not just Intranet Watch). As a result, this is a handy option for those who spend a lot of time already browsing websites that have regular updates. It also helps to keep your email inbox neat and tidy, rather than filled with updates from various websites.
If you do not already use a feed reader and would like to, we recommend Google Reader, which is free, fast and user-friendly. Sign up for an account, and then watch this video introduction to the service. Alternatively, you can read this very helpful written guide to Google Reader.
Once you subscribe to the Intranet Watch RSS feed, you will begin to receive updates straight away and you can return to your feed reader to read all the updates from whatever variety of websites you choose to subscribe to. A screenshot of a feed reader viewing the Intranet Watch feed is shown below.
That's all for intranet help this week. Let us know if you have further questions that you would like addressed in this regular feature in the future!

At first I didn't think I was going to get much done yesterday afternoon. It was rainy, and my enamel pots were still sitting out on the back porch getting soaked. I didn't quite have the "oomph" to go and bring them in, then scrub them out and dunk all that yarn in hot water. But then it occurred to me that I couldn't start on either of the knitting projects until the yarn had been dunked and dried, which meant get them in the water now.
So, once I got the pots ready for use I started with my newly re-claimed Rebecca yarn. The beginnings of the sweater unraveled fairly well, except for this largest skein. We call it the clown wig. I had to dunk it really well to get rid of the crinkles.
The cochineal dyed stuff gave me a bit of trouble. I changed the soak water for the sweater four or five times (one time of which was an all-night soak!) and the water still came out a pinkish red. And if I'm having this much trouble with the sweater I may want to soak the red yarn too. I just rinsed it a couple times and called it good. The sweater is about to be gently de-watered (forget "rung" or "pressed." Much too rough on the wool.) I hope it will dry soon.
I finished spinning the merino/silk batt and almost backed out of plying it, but my knitting sister kindly explained that I might not want to try knitting with lace-weight singles the first thing out of the box. I heeded her advice and half of the yarn is plied and drying. I'll try to finish plying the rest today.

About the Industry
The U.S. lumber industry is critical to the prosperity and growth of U.S. manufacturing and local communities nationwide. Around the country, the industry is responsible for:
Number of manufacturing facilities.
350,000 Jobs
Across America, including highly-skilled jobs utilizing robotics and 3D imaging, as well as high-paying jobs that don't require college degrees.
420 Million
Acres of timberlands owned by 10 million individual family forest landowners.
Why We Need the Full Enforcement of the U.S. Trade Laws
The enforcement of current U.S. trade laws can ensure free and fair trade. Implementing and enforcing an effective framework that prevents subsidized Canadian softwood lumber producers dumping their product in the U.S.
The U.S. industry is capable of supplying most of today's lumber demand. And with the proper enforcement of U.S. trade laws, or with the development of a new Softwood Lumber Agreement, more American homes can be built with American lumber milled by American workers.

Tonight I am hosting a "Margarita Kay" party at my house. My friend has just started selling Mary Kay, so I volunteered to have a few friends over for a party. It also gives me an excuse to make food and margaritas. YAY!
The snacks are all going to be quazi-Mexican, so I wanted some easy decorations to go along with the "theme." I did some Googling and came across the idea to make tissue paper flowers. I have never made them before, but they are SOOOO easy to do I might have to come up with more excuses to make them.
To make Mexican Paper Flowers, you will need:
dollar store tissue paper in bright colors
pipe cleaners or floral wire
STEP ONE: Cut your tissue paper into 10 inch wide strips (smaller if you want smaller blossoms) and stack 5 or 6 pieces on top of each other.
STEP TWO: Fold the paper back and forth like an accordian.
STEP THREE: Cinch the tissue paper in the middle and wrap your wire around it. Yep. That is the wire I saved from my class reunion centerpieces.
STEP FOUR: Use your scissors to round off the ends of the tissue paper.
STEP FIVE: Carefully fan out the two ends of the paper and fluff each sheet. Be gentle! Tissue paper is fragile, duh!
Pretty, right? The flowers are REALLY big so I am not sure what I am going to use as a vase yet. I wanted to use this really pretty glass pitcher I have but never use.
Come back tomorrow for pictures of the party and the recipes for all the yummy food and for my famous margaritas (4 ingredients)! See you then. I gotta get cleaning!

I just finished my bag of pizza-flavored goldfish I treated myself to at Target earlier today after performing on a bar show to a sleepy audience.
That's now.
Earlier today: I was at therapy. I told Sam I'm having trouble doing basic things like cleaning my room, that I've been sick for the past three days unable to motivate myself to do anything except binge watch 'The Night Of' (so good). He said, "Well, maybe it hasn't gotten bad enough yet for you to do anything about it." "I dunno…I saw some spiders yesterday. I should probably clean." "Well, you could just force yourself to, but of course that sucks." "Yeah it really does."
I got home after therapy and was greeted with not a couple spiders but at least 100 TERMITES!!! The lord hath spoken and he is not pleased, I thoughteth. I went into panic mode (After screaming, of course) and began individually spraying the termites with bleach, then hitting them with books (oh shoot, I wanted to read that one!) and throwing them into the toilet in little rolled up pieces of paper towel. Disgusting, yes. Did I have a choice, no? Called forth into action despite myself, just as Sam predicted.
The rest of the day became massacre plan for the grotesque insects as well as a full on cleaning craze (my landlord can't see my place like this when I tell her about the problem and she comes to inspect).
I went to Target first. I loaded up my cart with a dustbuster, latex gloves, bleach, Swiffer wipes, paper towels, bug spray, and more. Of course the right bug spray wasn't there. A young man, new on the job said they didn't have that kind of insect repellant, but would you like a sample of this Starbucks drink? "What is it?" "I don't know." "OK."
I also bought one pair of underwear, 'cause I also haven't motivated myself to do laundry and pizza flavored goldfish, because I'm 12. And I made my way to the cash register.
"Find everything OK?" It's the same guy who couldn't find me the right bug spray. "Umm…weren't you the one just helping me?" "Oh right. The bug spray." "Yeah…and what would you do if I didn't find everything I was looking for…" "Ummm…." "Just shut up and give me the goldfish" (I didn't say that).
I then had to go to Home Depot to get the termite spray. I remembered that my showerhead is broken too. So I asked a guy to help me find the right part for that. Of course when I got home, it's wasn't the right part, so now my shower head is still broken and it's like taking a shower under a hose. At least the water is warm tho, I mean not complaining too much. And if I walk around with shampoo still in my hair, maybe it will smell nice.
I got home, sprayed the s*** out of my apt. And went into a panic of cleaning everything and throwing stuff out left and right that the bugs may have even briefly touched. Even furniture. 'Cause ewww…
I fantasized briefly about having a man there to deal with all this down and dirty stuff. I come home and he's there doing push-ups with sweat glistening on his chiseled jawline. But then I immediately snap back into reality and think, 'Naw…then I'd also have to talk to him and I'm busy right now….doing what? I don't know! Stop asking me difficult questions!"
One termite had crawled up onto my bedsheet so I grabbed the entire sheet and flung it into my other room, "Get off!!!" I shouted. Then I realized I had no clean clothes, no clean sheets. So I went to my gritty launderette (no I don't yet have a washer/dryer in my little one bedroom apt). But yeah it's the Beverly Hills one, so not so gritty, but still! I have to GO there!
The entire day felt like a struggle. And to top it off, I did a show at a bar where my jokes hovered above everyone's heads like invisible clouds. I muscled through. Then found the pizza goldfish waiting for me in my car, a welcome snack after an uphill set after a challenging day. Came home, no termites. At least, no alive ones.
I sit on my unmade bed and write this. And I think, "Man…is this really living the dream?" No. Definitely not. Is it worth it? Who the hell knows. I'm alone. I'm tired. I'm frustrated. But….at least I have stories to tell. I'll leave it at that.
Don't worry. They're calling the exterminators tomorrow. And fine. I'll get back to cleaning, dammit. Shut up!

Late last Thursday, May 14 the Senate Judiciary Committee was expected to vote on House Bill 362, Alabamaâ??s â??Worker Protectionâ?? Bill. However, Senator Myron Penn (D-28), the Chair of the Senate Judiciary opted not to send it out of committee. Unfortunately, this move ultimately killed the bill. HB 362, sponsored by State Representative Craig Ford (D-28), would have protected your right to lawfully transport and store firearms in a privately-owned and locked motor vehicle while parked in publicly accessible parking lots controlled by your employer or a business you frequent. Thanks to your efforts, HB 362 passed the House on Tuesday, May 5 without any restricting amendments. Unfortunately, big business lobbyists for the railroad and power companies and trial lawyers continued to actively lobby against HB 362. They pressured legislators and offered weakening amendments that placed restrictions on the rights of law-abiding gun owners. The NRA will continue to work on getting this right-to-carry reform bill passed for the 2010 session. Please contact Senator Penn and express your support of Worker Protection in Alabama, with the intention of passing this important legislation next session. You can reach Senator Penn by phone at (334) 242-7868 or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.

Design Ideas For White Kitchens
We're thrilled to have featured some really beautiful kitchens, all of which have been full
We're thrilled to have featured some really beautiful kitchens, all of which have been full of genius steal-worthy decorating ideas. By understanding the kitchen work triangle concept and how you need your kitchen to operate, you will be more likely to create the kind of kitchen you've at all times wanted. It doesn't matter that your house faces a freeway-you can nonetheless get into that straightforward-going seashore attitude each time you step into your kitchen with these colors from Martha Stewart.
Small appliances like can openers that are not used on a regular basis might be saved in the pantry. It is in regards to the colours for the kitchen at this time and we'll talk about in this article, as many of you are afraid to make use of them in this room. Even everyday gadgets like kitchen sinks generally is a feature in themselves when you choose a bit in a finish that stands out – just take a look at the allure a Belfast sink provides to a kitchen.
Just for reminder, upgrading your kitchen could also be some of the comprehensive and expensive inside design duties in your home. Good places for islands embody the middle of a kitchen or to surround an open ground plan kitchen in an L form formation. The kitchen has long been described as the center of the house, and for any woman who spends massive amounts of time there the type of kitchen accessories that she works with is important.
The issues I take into account by noticing you with this up coming picture gallery is that you just and our loyal followers in all places can get plenty of fresh thought of rebuilding their kitchen space or perhaps finishing up the ideas by themselves each time they adore it.
If you want to remodel using a new design, start together with your kitchen and move out from there. The most effective methods to do that is by doing a DIY kitchen initiatives like making your own vases, wall hangings or, in the event you're up for it, constructing your personal tables.

Open source developers can be just as clueless at handling third-party security disclosures affecting their products as the often-criticised closed source sector, a researcher for security firm Rapid7 has discovered after spotting exploitable issues in a clutch of popular web apps hosted on SourceForge.
Ironically, the easiest part of engineer Brandon Perry's security research appears to have been finding vulnerabilities in seven applications with a lifetime download count of 16 million. These ranged from an educational tool called Moodle (4.7 million downloads), a CRM tool called vTiger (3.6 million downloads) to relative minnows such as the OpenMediaVault (703,000) and NAS4Free home storage software.
Most of the issues related to problems in the design of applications (i.e. intended functions misused) while one – that found in Openbravo ERP – was a conventional software flaw.
Perry and Rapid7 admit two points about these applications; none is in the league of an Apache or a Wordpress and many of the installs might not in use any longer. But if even a few percent remain live that would still equivalent to hundreds of thousands of vulnerable targets.
Conventionally, some of the flaws might also be described as 'hacks' rather than flaws but to the pen-tester that makes no odds; if an attacker can misuse a function whose limitations are not adequately documented then it is a hole that gives attackers a way in.
Only three of the seven were patched during Rapid7's disclosure period.
The story should end with the news that Rapid7 has released modules that hit each issue for Metasploit, but the more interesting issue turned out to be the difficulties Perry's Rapid7 colleague Tod Beardsley (who handled disclosure) had in simply communicating with the projects themselves prior to going public.
"Despite this level of apparent popularity, though, the actual business of disclosing vulnerabilities to the software developers directly was... circuitous. Across these seven projects, I found there were at least seven different approaches to handling incoming vulnerability reports," said Beardsley in his blog.
Incredibly, during the disclosure period one of the projects had asked for a password-protected zip file containing the details while another "filed the issue on a public bug tracker which promptly e-mailed it back in cleartext," said Beardsley.
It was as if none of these FOSS (free and open source software) developers had even thought about having a structured disclosure policy because the applications had been built on their features alone. Security was for security applications.
"In the security space the awareness is much higher. If it's in another space their focus is different," Rapid7's product marketing manager Christian Kirsch told Techworld at this week's RSA Show in Amsterdam.
"There was a lot of education that we had to do along the way. They didn't seem to have a high level of security awareness," he said.
The team's advice to FOSS developers was to start by having a signed PGP key that authenticated the contact email address for third parties to communicate flaws. From that point onwards, all communications should use encryption and acknowledge receipt. Developers should make this whole process as easy to find and understand as possible.
Vulnerabilities that involved feature exploitation should be documented and communicated to the end users, many or all of whom will not be plugged into the CERTs and Bugtraqs used by developers.
Last but not least, the users of SourceForge should not blindly assume that open source applications are any more secure or any easier to secure when flaws are found. As with proprietary developers there seems to be good and bad, complacent and attentive.
Rapid7 details its disclosure policy on its website.
This story, "Open source developers clueless about security disclosure, Rapid7 finds" was originally published by Techworld.com.

Hi, I'm a student working on a project analysing different protocols. I am using two windows XP machines to setup a client and server VPN. I have managed to successfully connect from client to server. However how would I now share a file?
Enable simple file sharing or password protected file sharing, after that access the files from other computer. Hope this helps.
Are you able to ping each computer through your tunnel? If so then just use the Windows WORKGROUP simple file sharing as suggested above.
The other question is why do you ask is there a specific issue you are having?
So once I have setup the file share, I'm assuming I type the IP address of the server machine into a client browser page followed by the name of the shared folder?
The reason I am asking was because I wasn't too sure about this, was having a search on google and stumbled upon this forum where there was kind and positive feedback to other peoples questions.
Thank you for your help, really appreciated
"I type the IP address of the server machine into a client browser page "
Not sure what you mean by this. There are no browsers need in VPN. VPN stands for Virtual Private Network which basically is like have a direct connection to the network. You access the file shares like you would on any network through either UNC or mapped drives.
So to answer your question you would go to My Computer and in the address bar type the UNC path for the other computer like...
"\\10.10.10.2\Shared Folder\"
or if DNS is getting through the tunnel then you could use the FQDN...
"\\Other Computer\Shared Folder\"
If DNS does not get through the tunnel then you could setup static DNS references in the Host files. You do have to know a little about networking for this project.
I apologise by browser page, I did mean explorer Window.
Yeh the project was originally just a simulation in Opnet network modelling software which was implemented successfully and readings between different protocols and algorithms have been analysed.
I wasn't aware that Windows XP allowed a VPN connection, therefore when I found this out thought i'd make it an add on to my project.
Hi Guys, just to let you know I got it working. Didn't realise it was as simple as that. Thank you so much for your help :)

The offense which has as many thought would take steps back with the retirement of Ortiz has had an ebb and flow to their offense this season. Mookie Betts, who finished runner-up to Mike Trout in 2016 MVP race, has had his second 20/20 season.
As I pointed out with the pitching staff, in order to have the Red Sox make a successful run they need the offense to step up. Sadly, many including myself didn't think Mookie would have the same success that he did last season and he hasn't. The stats for are modest, given his track reccord. He's hitting .260 with 22 homers and 89 RBI. To his credit, he has battled through multiple lineup changes – hitting leadoff, second, third, and cleanup this season.
Like Mookie, Xander Bogaerts has taken a step back in his offensive output this year. Xander has endured injuries that have played a big part in that. He was hit on the wrist prior to the All-Star Break in July. He also has battled groin problems which have sapped some strength from him. He's still an above average hitter who is a gold glove defender at short.
The surprise of this season has been the arrivals of Andrew Benintendi, Eduardo Nunez, Mitch Moreland, and the emergence of Rafael Devers
Benintendi, who many picked in the offseason to win the Rookie of the Year, still has a great chance to do just that. He's hitting .282 with 19 homers and a Red Sox rookie record 93 RBI's has been a wonderful addition to this lineup. Nuñez who was acquired by Dombrowski in a early July trade, reignited a slumbering offense with his aggressive style both at the plate and on the bases.
Mitch Moreland who was signed as a free agent to play first and hopefully add some offense has had a career year. He set the world on fire earlier in the season earning the nickname, courtesy of Jared Carrabis, "Mitchy2bags" for all the first half doubles he hit. He did have a scuffle which occurred after fracturing a toe. However, in August and now September he has rediscovered his power stroke and has 19 homers.
Finally, the emergence of Rafael Devers. After enduring over two months of Pablo Sandoval before his finally being released, Devers was promoted in August and immediately made his impact known. In a Sunday Night game in New York, he took at Aroldis Chapman 102mph fastball and launched it into the left center bleachers.
RT .RedSox: Never Forget: .Rafael_Devers introduced himself to #TheRivalry in style. pic.twitter.com/jSKcBoJfkc
— Never Forget Bot (@forgetmebot) August 18, 2017
He never seems to be fazed by the big moment and has a smile on his face. He's definitely going to be a player that, like Mookie, Xander, JBJ, and Benintendi, will be in Boston for a long time.

This book provides a comprehensive introduction to the theory of stochastic calculus and some of its applications. It is the only textbook on the subject to include more than two hundred exercises with complete solutions.
After explaining the basic elements of probability, the author introduces more advanced topics such as Brownian motion, martingales and Markov processes. The core of the book covers stochastic calculus, including stochastic differential equations, the relationship to partial differential equations, numerical methods and simulation, as well as applications of stochastic processes to finance. The final chapter provides detailed solutions to all exercises, in some cases presenting various solution techniques together with a discussion of advantages and drawbacks of the methods used.
Stochastic Calculus will be particularly useful to advanced undergraduate and graduate students wishing to acquire a solid understanding of the subject through the theory and exercises. Including full mathematical statements and rigorous proofs, this book is completely self-contained and suitable for lecture courses as well as self-study.

- Reviews
"This book is an excellent and quite complete course of stochastic calculus at the master's degree level. … The book includes plenty of exercises, all of them completely and extensively solved in the appendix. This aspect can be very useful for professors who plan to use the book for teaching. In summary, I find that this is an excellent and complete book on stochastic calculus for master's level students. I am going to use it in my future teaching activities." (Josep Vives, Mathematical Reviews, November, 2018)
"The unique feature of this book is the vast amount of exercises and solutions (more than 200, according to the publisher), with detailed solutions — they are not just a one line hints. There are also many interesting detailed examples and discussions that elaborate on the theory. … In my opinion this is a great book for self-study, as the exercises and solutions are a goldmine." (Peter Rabinovitch, MAA Reviews, May, 2018)"The first goal is to make the reader familiar with the basic elements of stochastic processes, such as Brownian motion, martingales and Markov processes and then move in the direction of stochastic integration. ... The book is written in clear language and in good style and will be useful for everybody who is interested in stochastic calculus; it is suited for beginners, students, researchers, teachers and practitioners."

Dixons chains Currys and PC World will knock £200 off the price of a new notebook, provided you buy it this month.
And when you hand over your cash, the two DSG brands will also give you a £50 voucher to spend on software and accessories, Dixons said today. You'll also get £15 toward apps sold through its KnowHow App Centre, the software-centric virtual shop it leases from Intel.
The deal doesn't apply to refurbished notebooks, and anyone hoping to get themselves a cut-price Apple MacBook will be disappointed, but Dixons' deal covers everything else.
The only gotcha we can see: the £50 voucher is emailed to you, so keep an eye on your spam filter. The voucher can only be used from 6 to 29 February 2012, and you have to spend at least £200 to claim it - so you can see how Dixons hopes to get most of its discount back... ®

Samick Pianos
Selling Samick pianos for over 15 years.
Samick is the largest manufacturer of musical instruments in the world, and the third largest producer of pianos. They have many brands of piano world wide. In the UK, we have Samick & Reid-Sohn. Samick have shares in Steinway & Sons. Samick produce a wide range of piano designs, colours and performance ranges, with 14 different case finishes on the JS range of uprights. TUV of Germany have issued Samick with the first ISO 9001 rating ever given to a musical instrument, proving through third party certification that the entire Samick production process is truly excellent.
The 'scale' of the piano determines the eventual tone of the instrument. The design of the piano's scale is therefore extremely important. Samick commissioned the world renowned Klaus Fenner from Germany to design all of their new instruments. He incorporated a "German Scale Design" in all of his pianos. This design pulls the string to a higher tension than normal, which tames the string divisions, resulting in a pleasing tone to the human ear. Samick uses Roslau Piano Strings from Germany to produce this tone.
By John Thompson (Owner of Sussex Pianos)
"Samick offer value for money but with features like German hammer felt and strings. They are more consistent in quality than most level entry brands and are available in more case finishes. The 126cm is the newest in the range, based on the Seiler German 126 piano, this piano has a great dynamic range without being looking too large. The 112 and 118 RI models with the inlay and mouldings give a unique look to the piano."
Choose 9 or 12 months Representative 0% APR or other finance products with finance through V12 finance products.
Generally, these pianos offer excellent value for money and cover many sizes of pianos across a range of brands. They are aimed towards the beginner or ocassional players, either on a budget or see no benefit in buying a more expensive, more refined piano with enhance features and build quality. They are built to cover a particular price range and all factors including materials, workmanship, and method and location of manufacture, are made to meet that price range. Nearly all are mass-produced in Asia. China, South Korea and Indonisia being large piano making countries.

I managed to finish all the beading for my finished Mira RR - I also took MissyAnn's advice and stitched the last mermaid myself and signed her 'Nora' for the designer.
After that I received Diane's RR in the mail and stitched Ashley's Roses to finish hers.
That finishes up all my stitching for the Mira RR - so I'll quit boring you with the pics of them. State Fair is my next big stitching goal and I'll be trying to finish Silkwood Manor - Just Nan, one of the Nora Corbet Christmas Couriers (haven't decided or started which one it will be yet), and a small scissorcase by Cat's Whiskers. I will also enter my Enchanted Alphabet by L&L in the large catagory. Probably too ambitious to finish all of that by mid to late July when the judging is, but I'm going to try to do as much as possible - so the next few months will probably be updates on those.
On the personal front, the job is going well - I got a very nice raise back in Feb and everyone seems to be happy with my work. I don't know about the current assignment just yet. I've only been doing it about a week and I'm still feeling out how it is going to go.
Home is going well - DH and I are getting along pretty well these days, guess we were just going through a bit of a rough patch awhile back when I posted about some of the arguing we were doing. I think I have a tendency to over-react a bit when we are fighting because of how things were *years* ago - it always feels like we are right back there. In realilty we have both learned a lot and while old habits still slip in now and again we are much better at righting things and getting back on track.
On another note DH and I are looking into buying or building a new home for spring 2009. I really want to build, but the more we look into it the more confusing/hard it seems. I know we could just buy a home/lot package from a builder and eliminate a lot of the befuddling hoops and such, but we really don't want to move into one of those cookie cutter new neighborhoods. We have been interested in a few single lots, but then there is all the issues of trying to figure out if we could get an exposure, if there will be drainage problems, what the setbacks are, whether there are utilities already there or not, and how much it will cost if there aren't, yadda, yadda, yadda...
Last but not least, we are going back to Disney in late August. We are so excited. Good thing the summer is getting so packed lately - the busyiness will make it go by more quickly. Oh, and I almost forgot Katis is 4 tomorrow! Can you believe it? Well, I can't! She is growing up so quickly!

Hot, Hot, Hot at the Moose on the Loose 10 Miler
Today I ran the Moose Milers 10 mile trail race (results) in Mine Falls Park. It was hot (in the low 90's) and humid and was not a good day for racing. I spent the last two days getting Andrew situated for his first year at Gordon College and so I didn't run or think about running for those days. I woke up this morning not sure what I could do.
I have been feeling pretty good and experiencing a lot of changes from doing plenty of Feldenkrais exercises. I am running better most days, but some days my body is a bit confused such as on Wednesday during the track workout. It was hot and humid and we were to do 5 X mile. For the first mile I realised I didn't have a group. I ran with a new guy named Juan with limited English skills. I took him through the 1/2 in under 3:00 but then he passed me and moved away. That was the only one I ran under 6 minutes. I ran the second with him, but he moved away even quicker. His fifth mile was done solo in 5:00 flat as he got faster each interval. I tried to find another group to run with as my hip was bothering me and my running had no flow. I joined a group but they kept starting without me. I did two intervals sort of with them, as again I was on my own. My hip was sore and I was limping, so I stopped. I worked on stretching and relaxing for over 20 minutes before doing the final mile on my own. I wore the Vibram Five-finger shoes for this one. My stride was a little better and I liked running on the track with those funky shoes.
Unfortunately I had the same hip imbalance again today, but you can't stop and fix it during a race. Because of this I started much slower than normal and couldn't get comfortable. There are four 2 1/2 mile loops in this race. I only caught my 5 mile split. It was 34:21. It was hot and ugly out there and things still weren't improving, but I remembered putting in the extra mile on Wednesday when I wasn't feeling good and had at first ended the workout prematurely. I told myself that this would be when that extra effort would pay off. I was able to keep up the same awkward pace as other runners kept dying off around and in front of me. I passed quite a few runners the last two laps and was never passed once. I finished in 1:08:44 so I had pretty much even splits. If I didn't stop at the cones instead of running to the clock it would probably have been even splits exactly.
The race was hot! Many runners were slowed by the excessive heat. I was soaked with sweat that wouldn't dry off by the end. My hip was real sore and I was limping around for a couple of hours. I felt good that I didn't fall apart in the heat. I accept the fact that my time was slower than I was capable of, but that was more to do with an awkward stride. I do have some ideas of what movement exercises I should do to rebalance things again.
The Gate City Striders cleaned up with points in the New Hampshire Grand Prix. I ended up 5th in my age group, well really 6th if you count Cathy Merra's amazing run. Another great run was put in by Rich Stockdale. The guy is 58, lost 10 pounds this week on a funky diet that I don't understand and I did not pass him until the 180 degree turn on the last lap.

Nice job nonetheless, Jim! I've been running in the Five Fingers for a couple of weeks and have really enjoyed them. Unfortunately, I shredded my pair on a hiking trip and then an intense trail race. Fortunately, my brother works for Vibram:)

and not about to be silenced…
Thank you, Outlandish Remarks, for the link
Dis Place
Ahh, another self-portrait.
This time it's 5:30 a.m. in Seoul, S. Korea, and I'm waiting for the first train of the morning. I'm reading Jane Jeong Trenka's new work, "Fugitive Visions," and it's disjointed nature perfectly describes adoptedness. How I felt growing up in the midwest. How I struggled with all the western world put on me. How I preemptively reject everyone because I can't deal with the first rejection. How I long for love, even though I expect only rejection. How I deal with now. How every second of every minute I am sort of nowhere, because my head is always flooded with all these complicated clashing noisy distracting frustrating churning thoughts. The therapist would ask, "how do you feel?" How can one possibly begin to put a finger on all that? Because every moment is all that, and never just one thing. We come from a place where we draw the kind of attention nobody wants. We live in this place as ghosts in society. We inhabit this space, this interstitial space.
And I look up and see this; I must dig out my camera and shoot.
You know, it isn't just about the past or the future or fate or gratitude or luck or anger or depression or hopeness. (the mispelling is an inside joke) It's about this photo. It's about all these layers. How many layers? How many layers…
Somehow, Jane managed to capture those layers, after layers, after layers. We are each of us sifting through this morass of experiences, trying to organize our books in order to live. But Jane just says, "see? this is just how it is for me/us." She is an excellent writer, but her book is no book: it is a documentary film about a reluctant exile and finding the soundtrack to describe such an epic journey. The visions are a deck of cards, shuffled. It is a document of how we think; how we must think, to just be.
There is no protection from adoptedness. There is no avoiding it or denying it, try as we might. Yet our adopters and society insist on this myth of equality, banishing us to a life of silence. No other diaspora that faces racism would be told the racism they experience doesn't matter/is cancelled out because they were chosen. But adoptees live this daily. Neither are we allowed to grieve our losses, because it hurts others, and we are taught that their emotions are more important than ours. Is it any wonder so many adoptees have sardonic characters?
That would be me I am describing.
I have avoided other adoptees all my life, so it was surprising when I first met them to discover that they, too, had sardonic characters, biting wit, and were always recognizing the irony in everything.
When I first heard about adoptees returning to Korea; that they met and had a community, I thought how counter-productive for their self actualization. At that time, I had wanted to believe that with a little hard work, I could just slip right in and reclaim my Koreanness, and that reclaiming Koreanness WAS self actualization. But Korea won't let me. Because my banishment was total, and I will forever be a foreigner here. The adoptees you meet from all over the world are also lacking Koreanness, despite blending in here. Adoptedness is the state we all understand, the land we all inhabit.
The truth is, we can never be like others in either society. The adopting world needs to know that. The adoptees need to recognize that before they can heal. The Korean people need to see exactly what exile does to the little people they send away. And the international adoption agencies need to stop toying with all those populations' hopes and dreams. Their machine works. But what of the lives they have affected? Ask me. Ask both my moms, wherever they may be.
So I have decided to become a card carrying returning adoptee member and join this community here. And it is not about belonging to something/anything, out of desperation for company, for I am most comfortable with and accustomed to isolation. It is about Jane's pioneering work and vision. It is about the kind of person I am. It is about truth and justice.
The adoptees who have chosen to live here are a resilient bunch. And for those that are activists in adoption reform, they are beyond mere resilience. They are advocates for others and proactive about improving/resolving not only their own lives, but all the other lives affected by this crazy experiment gone awry. I am proud, proud, proud to be invited into the fold.
Anyway, read Jane's book. Maybe then you can understand. We're not just ungrateful malcontents. We are survivors and freedom fighters.
Relative Choices
Click on the image below to reach a great collection of NY Times blog entries on International adoption.
Then, if you have about an hour you can listen to NPR's Talk of the Nation about the difficulties accessing records for International Adoptees (they barely scratched the surface, of course, but it is a nice cross section of both concerned adoptive parents and IA adoptees from various parts of the world. It's nice because it obviously shows a significant change in attitudes from back when most of us adult adoptees were growing up.)
Korean Adoptees for Fair Records Access
It's been less than a day since I started this Facebook group, and there are about 5 new members every half hour. Maybe that should tell Holt and the other international adoption agencies something, ya think? I mean, they claim to care about the children, but that seems to only be before they are adopted. Afterwards, we get treated like unreasonable pests. There are A LOT of us, and even if we loved our adoptive families, being treated like this can make a person RIGHTFULLY angry.
Since when was wanting to know missing years, your name, your real birth date, how you came into being, and if you were loved unreasonable?
If this describes you and you've been given the run-around in pursuit of your fundamental right to know about yourself, then do sign up for our Facebook group
Between 1995-2005, 76,646 adoptees have returned to Korea to search for their natural parents. That's over 61% of all adult adoptees! Only 2,113 (2.7%) have succeeded.
Are these poor rates of success due to our prospects, or due to ADOPTION AGENCY SUCCESS AT BARRING ACCESS TO OUR DOCUMENTS?
We believe it is the latter, and we know from experience that discouraging tactics are employed to withhold records whenever possible.
The Hague Convention on Intercountry Adoption protects the identity of adoptees, yet despite there being 78 other member countries, S. Korea has yet to join. Current efforts to prepare for joining the Hague Convention are inadequate and rely on adoption agency cooperation, with little or no oversight.
The combined voices of the over 70,000 can not be ignored by the Korean government. We want to document our suppression, so future adoptees are not turned away with no clues about their histories and current adoptees can try again and get the proper respect they deserve and access to documents about their own lives.
If you have experienced ANY DIFFICULTY currently or in the past getting fair access to your records, please join our group and share your experience on our wall.
Please stand up and be counted – and spread the word! Tell your FB friends, other KAD groups, and KAD organizations!

Rev. Msgr. John A. Radano, Ph.D., presented a workshop on Saturday, March 8, 2014 to the permanent deacon candidates and their wives of the Diocese of Paterson.
Rev. Msgr. John A. Radano, Ph.D., is an Adjunct Professor of Systematic Theology and served on the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity (PCPCU) in Rome from 1984-2008. In 1985, Pope John Paul II appointed him as head of that Pontifical Council's Western Section.
Msgr. Radano presented a workshop on the topic of Catholic Identity, Ecumenism and Interreligious Dialogue for the Diocese of Paterson permanent diaconate candidates and their wives at St. Paul Inside the Walls, Madison on Saturday March 8, 2014. This topic is an important component for the basic standards for readiness for ordination according to the National Directory for the Formation, Ministry, and Life of Permanent Deacons in the United States. Permanent Deacons, as part of their ministry, must be able to develop relationships and identify with other denominations and religious traditions while articulating and retaining their own Roman Catholic identity.
Msgr. Radano explained that Unity is one of the marks of the Church ("One, Holy, Catholic and Apostolic"). But, there have been major divisions among Christians over the centuries, bringing disunity among them. After the Council of Chalcedon in 451, some separated from the rest of the Church because they could not accept certain Christological formulations of that Council. In 1054 there was a schism between the Eastern and Western Churches, and in the sixteenth century the Protestant Reformation emerged in the western Church, resulting in serious divisions. After centuries of separation, the realization became clear that such division was a scandal to the Gospel of Christ, and thus, in the early twentieth century the ecumenical movement, the movement seeking Christian unity was born. Various movements of cooperation developed, leading in 1948 to the creation of the World Council of Churches involving Protestant, Anglican and Orthodox churches. Since the Vatican II Council (1962-1965), the Catholic Church has been deeply committed to the Ecumenical movement, promoting unity through dialogue and better relations with other Christians. Important agreements have been published, fostering agreements which help to resolve some of the major theological conflicts of the past, but dialogue has to continue.
In the second session of the workshop, Msgr. Radano highlighted new directions for Interreligious Dialogue, specifically in Catholic-Jewish relations and Catholic-Muslim relations, especially as seen in the Vatican II's 1965 document Nostra Aetate, the Declaration on the Relation of the Church to Non-Christian Religions. The document stressed the importance of this dialogue and respect for other religions, but also emphasized that "the Church is in duty bound to proclaim without fail, Christ, the Way, the Truth, and the Life, in whom all people find their fulfillment."
The next pastoral formation program will be a presentation wrapping up the Top Ten Classical Catholic Books Deacons Should Know, Part II by Dr. Gregory Glazov. D.Phil., Assistant Professor of Biblical Studies, on Saturday, April 12, 2014.
Edited by Rev. Msgr. John A. Radano, Ph.D.

Little Lupin Chicken and her two sisters arrived to live with us last August, three little girls who had been starved in the cage and consequently were all in a dreadful physical state. Surprisingly it was the largest hen, Larkspur, who succumbed to illness the quickest, passing away after only a few weeks of freedom, while tiny Lupin and Lavender quickly feathered up and started to grow strong and healthy.
Named after the flower, Lupin also took on the more wolf-like connotations of her name, taking it upon herself to be top hen of this little trio and sleeping by the coop door each night, guarding her new sisters. It made for a touching sight, this feisty little scrap of skin and bone, fearlessly protecting her new family. She was brave as well as beautiful, a little girl with a big heart.
She was also a very hungry girl and spent much of her day filling her crop, one of the many things life in a cage had denied her. Very soon though, Loops and Lav (as they became known!) realised that life wasn't just about survival, it is about having fun and being happy and Lupin embraced her new life with an unadulterated joy. Each day was a marvellous new adventure.
Merging Loops and Lav with the big girls was so easy, neither of them were interested in being top hen and avoided any fisticuffs. Life is too short to be worrying about such things. Lupin's joy at her new life featured in a couple of magazines in an article called Through Eyes of Wonder.
"Lupin and Lavender … now have a whole garden to explore – bugs to find, holes to dig and grass to scratch, every day bringing new and exciting exploits; they are first up in the morning and last to bed at night. Their enthusiasm for life is contagious and their happiness a delight to witness."
However, little Loops had the ghosts of her old life still haunting her. That crop that had been so empty in the cages, was weakened and caused her all sorts of problems. Occasionally it became impacted so we tried pineapple, oil and massage which seemed to work at first. Her crop episodes were sporadic and initially only mild but as time went on they became more severe and each time we feared we would lose her. However, Lupin was a fighter, she wasn't going to give up on her wonderful new life without a fight, she still had too much fun to have.
What we did discover though was that she was a squiggler!! Hated being picked up, hated her medicine and squiggled away as soon as she was able. Poor baby. So when she had to go to see Uncle Jason for an implant to stop her soft eggs, I was very concerned about her in the cat carrier. I hate putting ex-batts in it as there is a wire door and I fear they will think they are back in the cage again. So I put Loops in the carrier on the front seat, we had the Abba CD playing and we sang along to Chiquitita, changing the words to Chicken Lupin which she seemed to find soothing.
But sadly soon after the implant, things quickly took a downward turn. The next day she was very under the weather and I hoped it was just the effect of the implant – but in my heart I knew it was her poor crop again. I do not know if it was the shock of the implant that triggered it, so naturally feel responsible for her subsequent illness. Within a couple of days she had developed sour crop and, although we tried everything we could to make her better, she continued to get worse and nothing that we tried to syringe into her was going through. She was losing weight rapidly and becoming very weak.
On her final morning, we found her with foul fluid pouring out of her beak and she was hardy able to stand. Knowing it was her last day, I put her in the sunshine under an apple tree. She turned her head to the sun and closed her eyes, I am sure she knew it was time, but wanted to enjoy one more moment of sunshine in the garden she loved so. On the way to the vets we sang along to 'Chicken Lupin' again in the hope it would comfort her and once there, she went to sleep almost immediately, her poor body exhausted from fighting her illness. She was peaceful in my arms but she took a while to pass over, it was almost as if she was hanging on to every last scrap of life.
She was cremated that evening with the first sweetpea of the summer under her wing as well as some lavender flowers. Her soulmate in life was Lavender and I felt she needed to take something of her darling friend with her on her journey.
And now our garden feels empty without the joyful energy of Lupin in it. Her friend and partner-in-crime Lavender, is very subdued and misses her sister almost as much as we do.
Rest in peace now my darling brave girl, eat to your crop's content and never feel pain, hunger or fear again. You are safe now darling. Fly high little Loops xxxx
