Update: Click tweet for link.
Update: Mother Jones' lib Adam Serwer.
(From thread #1) Remember that Salon lefty who hope the terrorist was a "white American?" Today he's calling us bigots for pointing out they are Islamic terrorists.
Update: From CBS News.
Update: Another Islamist video Tamerlan Tsarnaev posted that focuses on jihad in Chechnya.
Update: Libs blood set to boil.
Update: "Angel of death" would be more appropriate.
(The Hill) — The father of the suspected Boston Marathon bomber who is being hunted by police said his son is "an angel" and an "intelligent boy."
Anzor Tsarnaev told the Associated Press on Friday that his son Dzhokar Tsarnaev is a medical school student.
"My son is a true angel," Tsarnaev said via telephone from Makhachkala, Russia. "Dzhokhar is a second-year medical student in the U.S. He is such an intelligent boy. We expected him to come on holidays here."
Update: Islamophobia!
(WaTi) — Boston bombing suspect Dzhohar Tsarnaev said on his Russian social media page that his world view was "Islam," while his older brother Tamerlan Tsarnaev talked about being "very religious" and complained there "are no values anymore," according to an English-language Russian newspaper.
The Moscow Times story posted online gave new details about the two brothers believed to have carried out the deadly attack at the finish line of the Boston Marathon Monday. Tamerlan Tsarnaev was killed in a clash with police Thursday night, while his brother is the subject of a massive manhunt Friday morning.
According to the Moscow Times account, Dzhohar Tsarnaev belonged to two Chechnya-related groups on the Vkontakte social media network, a Russian-language version of Facebook. He last logged on to the site at 5:04 a.m. Moscow time, which would be 9:04 p.m. Thursday night in Boston.
Update: IJU is a Uzbek jihadi group based in Pakistan.
Update: CAIR continues to do damage control, they've scheduled a press conference. Probably to warn people not to link this to Islam.
(TPM) — The Council on American-Islamic Relations has scheduled a noon press conference in Washington, DC with national and local Muslim leaders to discuss the Boston marathon bombing and the subsequent shooutout and ongoing manhunt involving two suspects implicated by authorities in the attack.
"We must remain united as a nation as we face those who would carry out such heinous and inexcusable crimes," CAIR National Executive Director Nihad Awad said in a statement. "We thank local, state and national law enforcement authorities for their diligence in bringing the perpetrators to justice and offer condolences to the loved ones of the officers killed and injured in efforts to detain the suspects."
Update: Unreal! Chuck Todd halts guest from speculating terror suspects motivated by jihad.
Update: Their fourth victim is being overlooked in all the breaking news. Prayers and condolences to the family of Sean Collier.
A much-loved MIT campus police officer with less than two years on the force is the Boston Bombers' fourth victim, authorities said.
Sean Collier, 26, of Somerville Mass., was shot multiple times in his squad car by the bloodthirsty brothers Dzhokhar and Tamerlan Tsarnaev around 10:20 p.m. after the pair attempted to rob a 7-Eleven, according to police and news reports.
Collier, who'd joined the Massachusetts Institute of Technology police force in January 2012, was pronounced dead at Massachusetts General Hospital.
Update: Obama admin already trying to downplay Muslim connection.
(Politico) — Secretary of State John Kerry wouldn't weigh in Friday on the implications of the apparent Chechen ties of the suspects in the Boston bombings as he took questions from reporters.
"At this point law enforcement officers are carrying out an ongoing investigation and, frankly, they're at some critical stages here. And it would just be entirely inappropriate for me to be commenting on the tick-tock around the larger issues outside of it," he said at the State Department.
Pressed again, he declined to comment. "I'm not going to get into speculation, I'm not going to deal with a hypothetical."
Update: Ramzan Kadyrov has been moving Chechnya rapidly towards fundamentalist Islam.
(Foreign Policy) — Chechnya's pro-Russian strongman leader Ramzan Kadyrov has just posted a statement about the Boston marathon bombing suspects on Instagram, his social media outlet of choice. Here's the Google-translated version:
The tragic events took place in Boston. The blast killed people. We have previously expressed their condolences to the people of the city and the people of America. Today, as reported by the media, while trying to arrest a Tsarnaea was killed. It would be logical if he was detained and investigated, found all the circumstances and the degree of his guilt. Apparently, the special services needed by all means to calm the result of society. Any attempt to make the connection between Chechnya and Tsarnaevys if they are guilty, [is] in vain. They grew up in the United States, their attitudes and beliefs were formed there. It is necessary to seek the roots of evil in America. From terrorism to fight the whole world. We know better than anyone else. We wish recovery to all the victims and share the feelings of sorrow Americans. # # Boston # bombing investigation.

The Women's Cricket Super League (WCSL), known as the Kia Super League (KSL) for sponsorship reasons, was a semi-professional women's Twenty20 cricket competition in England and Wales operated by the England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB).  The competition featured six franchise teams, partnered with a variety of county teams and boards and universities, and was envisaged as a means to bridge the gap between amateur domestic cricket and the increasingly professional international game.

The WCSL launched in 2016, with each team playing five group stage matches in a round-robin format, followed by a finals day; this was increased to ten group matches in 2018, following the ECB abandoning their initial plans to expand the tournament by also incorporating a 50-over competition.

The WCSL ended after the 2019 season, ahead of the intended launch of the ECB's new format, The Hundred, and its city-based men's and women's franchises. Western Storm ended the competition as the most successful team with two titles, in 2017 and 2019. Southern Vipers and Surrey Stars won one title each, in 2016 and 2018 respectively.

History
The England and Wales Cricket Board (ECB) announced their plans for the Women's Cricket Super League in June 2015, stating they would invest £3 million over four years. The competition would launch with six teams playing in a Twenty20 format, with the initial intention to add a 50-over competition in 2017. The ECB received 28 applications to host teams in the first stage of bidding, with the process subsequently moving to an interview stage. The six successful bids were announced in January 2016. The ECB hoped that the WCSL would develop as a semi-professional competition, with the intention of bridging the gap between the amateur Women's County Championship and international cricket, for which England players are centrally contracted as professionals.

It was decided in advance of the 2017 season that the planned 50-over competition would not after all take place, with the ECB and the franchises preferring to concentrate their resources on developing the existing Twenty20 format. For the 2018 season, the group stage of the competition was doubled in size, with each of the teams now facing each other home and away for a total of ten group matches.

In 2018, the ECB announced the planned launch of The Hundred in 2020, a new hundred-ball format competition to be played by newly-created city-based franchises with both men's and women's teams. In conjunction with this, it was also announced that the WCSL would be scrapped after the 2019 season. It was replaced with a new regional domestic structure for women's cricket in England and Wales, encompassing The Hundred, the Rachael Heyhoe Flint Trophy and the Charlotte Edwards Cup.

Teams
The ECB announced the six hosts for the WCSL in January 2016, with hosting rights awarded for four years of the competition, 2016 to 2019 inclusive. The hosts and partners included seven First-class counties, five minor counties and three universities. Team names, along with the fixtures and venues for the 2016 season, were announced in February 2016. The allocation of England players to the teams was announced in April 2016, with overseas player allocations being announced later that month.

Tournament results

Format

Matches were played in a Twenty20 format. Teams played each other in a round robin, from which the top three teams qualified for Finals Day at a neutral venue. In 2016 and 2017 teams played each other once, and in 2018 and 2019 teams played each other twice. The second and third placed teams then met in the semi-final for the right to face the first placed team in the final. Finals Day was staged at the County Cricket Ground, Chelmsford in 2016 and at the County Cricket Ground, Hove from 2017 to 2019.

Media coverage
The 2016 tournament was not televised, but seven group matches and the finals day were broadcast live on BBC radio's Test Match Special. In 2017, Sky Sports broadcast eight matches live – six group stage matches as part of double-headers with a men's T20 Blast match, followed by both finals day matches. They broadcast twelve live matches from the expanded 2018 competition.

Sponsorship
The ECB announced a two-year title sponsorship agreement for the WCSL with Kia Motors in March 2016, as a result of which the competition was known as the Kia Super League. The deal was extended to cover the final two years of the competition in 2017.

So You Thought You Knew Dylan? Hah!
Chronicles Volume One By Bob Dylan 293 pages. Simon & Schuster. $24.
The Old Him is the hellhound who taunts Bob Dylan. From time to time this 1960's diety surfaces, driving nostalgists to rhapsodies (the Old Him is back!) but making Mr. Dylan angry enough to want to bite himself. Or at least that's how he puts it in his flabbergasting new memoir, "Chronicles: Volume One."
He was biting mad, he says, when, just before his 30th birthday, he was lured to Princeton University by the promise of an honorary doctorate, only to hear himself proclaimed "the authentic expression of the disturbed and concerned conscience of Young America." He was even angrier when Robbie Robertson of the Band, one of the rare Dylan contemporaries who will not read this autobiography with total fascination, dared to treat him as the music scene's reigning guru. The setting was Woodstock, N.Y., but "I felt like I might as well have been living in another part of the solar system," he now says.
Which part? Here's a promise: it's no part you might have expected. As the Sphinx holds forth with what is, to put it mildly, atypical frankness, he admits to remarkably unhip tastes and unlikely points of reference. He wonders why he was not one of the three members of Peter, Paul and Mary. He has nice things to say about the Kingston Trio, Senator Barry Goldwater, Mickey Rourke, Frank Sinatra Jr., Bobby Vee. He feels a kinship with Ricky Nelson, though only one of them grew up on a hit 1950's television show. "It was like he'd been born and raised on Walden Pond where everything was hunky-dory, and I'd come out of the dark demonic woods," he writes, "same forest, just a different way of looking at things."
He loves "Moon River." He says that "polka dances always got my blood pumping." Military history interests him, so much so that he responds less deeply to the historical events of his lifetime than to those of the Civil War. "The godawful truth" of that struggle, he says, "would be the all-encompassing template behind everything that I would write."
This book recaptures its author's first stirrings of creativity with amazing urgency. Mr. Dylan is fully present in re-experiencing the dawn of his songwriting career. "You just don't wake up one day and decide that you need to write songs," he says. Instead, he remembers feeling the need to "convert something -- something that exists into something that didn't yet."
And he is just as vital about the sensations of his later years, the dismal sense of being burdened by the Old Him's 16-ton legacy. "It was like carrying a package of heavy rotting meat," he writes about his most celebrated songs. "I couldn't understand where they came from." In this memoir he convincingly roams from the height of promise to being "a fictitious head of state from a place nobody knows," stuck in "the bottomless pit of cultural oblivion."
Deliberately, no doubt, "Chronicles: Volume One" beggars the efforts of biographers to reconstruct Mr. Dylan's inner workings. With no great interest in the supposed landmark events of his life or even in the specific chronology or geography of his movements, he prefers to mine a different kind of memory. And he once again makes his homage to Woody Guthrie -- another figure not known for autobiographical exactitude -- with a writing style both straight-shooting and deeply fanciful. Describing his first exposure to visionaries and revolutionaries who stirred him (Voltaire, Rousseau, Montesquieu, Martin Luther), he writes: "It was like I knew these guys, like they'd been living in my backyard."
Gone is the druggy logorrhea of his 1966 novel, "Tarantula," as Mr. Dylan -- a man who says he now owns a bumper sticker reading "World's Greatest Grandpa" -- looks back on his life. Yet "Chronicles" is hardly tame. It is lucid without being linear, swirling through time without losing its strong storytelling thread. And it begins and ends at more or less the same place: the calm before the storm, the eve of the Old Him's phenomenal celebrity. As the book begins, he is introduced to the fighter Jack Dempsey, who mistook Mr. Dylan for a fellow slugger. Of course, Mr. Dempsey was right.
The Holden Caulfield of Hibbing, Minn. (or so he sometimes casts himself), arrived in Greenwich Village circa 1961, wide-eyed at its larger than life characters. He sketches them succinctly and boldly, though that hardly qualifies as a surprise. Dave Van Ronk, who gave Mr. Dylan his first chance to perform in a New York club, "was passionate and stinging, sang like a soldier of fortune and sounded like he paid the price." A woman named Chloe Kiel "was cool as pie, hip from head to toe, a Maltese kitten, a solid viper -- always hit the nail on the head." When she offered to decorate his shoes ("those clodhoppers could use some buckles") and he refused her, Chloe said: "You got 48 hours to change your mind."
Chloe lived with Ray Gooch, and Mr. Dylan often stayed at their apartment -- or so he says, in the midst of describing the hallucinatory cornucopia of books and artifacts that he found there. He inhaled a wealth of knowledge and who knows what else; this is not a book to offer chapter and verse about the author's wild side. But this period of discovery is thrillingly recalled, and the author's literary opinions are riveting. He had no use for "Ulysses," found Balzac hilarious and says he once derived an album from Chekhov's short stories. What he called typically quacky critical interpretation greeted these Dylan songs as autobiographical.
How could he escape such scrutiny? The book turns darkly funny in describing his exasperation. Years later, in Woodstock and then other places, he was hounded by fans and tourists, "gargoyle-looking gals" and "scarecrows," "creeps thumping their boots across our roof." He claims to have both doused himself in liquor and visited Jerusalem in his efforts to become less popular -- and eventually it worked, despite the occasional "whatever happened to the Old Him?" stories from journalists. "They could go to hell, too," he says.
Part of "Chronicles" is devoted to Mr. Dylan's efforts to reinvent himself by many different means. He was invited by Archibald MacLeish to collaborate on a play -- a play that wound up closing on its third day. He kept on writing songs, "but they weren't the kind where you hear an awful roaring in your head," he says. "I knew what those kind of songs were like, and these weren't them." He considered venturing into the business world. (A wooden leg factory was one possibility.) He took a new numerological approach to live performances -- and here, briefly, the book turns strange. It's also difficult to believe in the revived creative energy that he attained in a song that rhymes "breeze" with "cheese."
Those interested in the roots of Mr. Dylan's music will have a field day tracking down this book's arcane references -- Darby and Tarleton's recording of "Way Down in Florida on a Hog," to name but one. He is at his most comfortable discussing favorite songs, and eventually he also warms up to the subject of favorite women. "The air was suddenly filled with banana leaves," he writes about first catching sight of Suze Rotolo, an old flame who figures in his earliest records. She is a fixture in the folksinger's Eden, from which Mr. Dylan is being ejected as this book reaches its cliffhanger finale.
"Chronicles: Volume One" leaves much to be said in future installments, and much good reason to look forward to them. Meanwhile, like it or not, the Old Him is back under the microscope.
And while this is no time for Mr. Dylan to write his own epitaph, still, he has done it: "Some people seem to fade away but then when they are truly gone, it's like they didn't fade away at all."
BOOKS OF THE TIMES Correction: October 27, 2004, Wednesday A picture caption on Oct. 5 with a Books of The Times review of "Chronicles: Volume One" by Bob Dylan misstated the year of the world tour in which he was shown performing. It was 1966, not 1968. A caption with the continuation of the article misidentified the event in Newport, R.I., where Mr. Dylan and Joan Baez performed in 1964. It was the Newport Folk Festival, not the Jazz Festival.

Probably the first thing you'll hear about Robbie Basho is how he died, yet that fateful visit to the chiropractor is only one of many bizarre stories that have caused the musician to be labelled as an enigma as well as a genius. Little known and credited during his lifetime Basho has become a figure posthumously recognised as the passionate and talented singer/guitarist that fell through the cracks of the musical landscape. Thanks to the internet though his unique voice combined with a dexterous, highly developed finger-picked guitar technique has led to a resurgence in interest.
In celebration of a such an extraordinary life film maker Liam Barker is in the midst of producing of a feature length documentary, 'a journey into the heart of an artist's lifelong struggle - designed to illuminate and satiate existing fans while serving as a perfect starting point for the uninitiated'. Combining interviews, abstract archival footage and photography of the natural phenomena and landscapes that informed his work, the to date self funded film has taken to Kickstarter in order to finance the completion of the piece.
To let this true original be presented visually seems the ultimate way to spread his musical message, and with the success of the project I can only imagine Basho wearing knee high moccasins, sporting a wild beard, thanking each and every one of those people who have contributed. I personally couldn't think of anything better.


Angel is sure to impress you with her angelic looks and personality! This two to three-year-old Setter mix was brought into the Darlington County Humane Society shelter in South Carolina on April 6th as a stray. She was scared and upset when she first came in to the shelter, but eventually she settled in and made do with her situation. Sadly, one thing was out of her control: she was heartworm positive.
Home At Last Dog Rescue in Pennsylvania had expressed interest in pulling Angel from the shelter, provided that her heartworm treatment was taken care of. Susan Blakeney, RADAR's liaison with the Darlington County Humane Society Rescue, knew just what to do. On April 23rd, she reached out to RADAR to see if we might be able to help. We agreed to assist, and she was safe! Angel received her treatment on May 9th.
"This big, poofy-jacketed lady is ready to wow you with her impeccable manners and stylish good looks," we were told. "Preferring to hug close to her new human friends versus running off and playing with new doggie friends. She is still testing the water a bit, but finding it's warm and inviting!" To see more photos of Angel, click here.
RADAR paid all $255 of the heartworm treatment costs for Angel.
UPDATE! All funds for Angel have been raised! Thank you!
If you are interested in adopting Angel, please contact Home At Last Dog Rescue.

Tesla Reveals Model Y, the New Mid-Size SUV
By Sasha Lekach 4 months
After more than a year of shadowy teaser images, Tesla's latest electric car, the Model Y, was finally revealed Thursday night.
As Tesla CEO Elon Musk said, "We are bringing sexy back quite literally," with the mid-size SUV Y completing the Tesla line of Models S, 3, and X.
Speaking to a crowded room at the Tesla Design Studio in Southern California, Musk confirmed that the car will cost 10 percent more than the Model 3, which has a base price of $35,000. The starting Model Y base price is $39,000 for about 230 miles of range. The original Tesla SUV, 2015's Model X, starts at $88,000.
The Model Y is unveiled at last.
Image: Tesla / screengrab
The cheapest version is expected in spring 2021. The long-range 300-mile range version will be available for $47,000 fall 2020.
The Y will be what the Tesla Model 3 was to the Tesla Model S: a more affordable, accessible version of a luxury vehicle. The Y will be smaller than the X, and only 10 percent bigger than the Model 3, with a hatchback instead of a sloping backside. It fits up to seven people.
"It feels like the Model 3," Musk said, noting the similar panoramic glass roof and dashboard design. The car will come with the semi-autonomous driving system, Autopilot, which Musk assured again will be full self-driving capable by the end of the year.
In preview photos the Y had no side mirrors. But using cameras instead of physical mirrors still hasn't been approved by regulators, so you'll notice the car shown at the event has side mirrors.
The "sexy" lineup of Tesla cars.
The car is designed to use a lot of the same parts as the Model 3 (Musk put the number at 75 percent in an earnings call earlier this year) so ramping up production shouldn't be as difficult.
"It has the functionality of an SUV, rides like a sports car," Musk summed up.
A Mashable reporter sat in the middle seat during a test ride at the event, noting how similar it is to the Model 3.
Just took a test drive in the @Tesla #ModelY ... check out my ride! Drive was smooth, engine clearly powerful. And guess what, even the back middle seat was pretty comfy. pic.twitter.com/zzprdGJMwW
— Rachel Kraus (@realkrauswife) March 15, 2019
Musk previously said he was planning to build the car at the Nevada Gigafactory, not the Fremont, Calif., plant where the Model 3 was assembled. But he didn't get into those logistics at the unveiling.
The last time Tesla unveiled a new vehicle was the Model 3 in 2016 — and the company didn't start shipping the cars until the very end of 2017, with many customers waiting well into 2018 for their cars. Musk said that the Model Y will start production in 2020 with steady deliveries by the end of that year.
The only image we'd seen of the Model Y for so long
Image: tesla
Data from J.D. Powers, the consumer insights firm, shows SUVs are very popular right now, making up 49 percent of U.S. car sales. Other compact electric SUVs have already hit the market, including Jaguar's I-Pace, Audi's E-tron, the Mercedes EQC and others.
Jessica Caldwell, executive director of industry analysis at Edmunds, said the company's research found that 43 percent of all Teslas were sold in California. Maybe the addition of a more affordable SUV can make Tesla more popular outside of the Golden State.
Musk predicted on stage that the Y will sell more cars than the S and 3 combined. That SUV demand is hot.
As soon as Musk's speech wrapped up, the Model Y was listed on the official Tesla website. The order page was even available for anyone eager to buy a car and receive it in more than a year.

Mary Margaret Albright is a fictional character who was played by former SNL cast member Jane Curtin in the American situation comedy 3rd Rock from the Sun. She serves as a straight foil and love interest for the eccentric Dick Solomon.

Casting
Curtin was recruited to play Mary by friend Bonnie Turner after another actress was deemed too sweet for the part. Co-star John Lithgow said, "We really needed a very strong human comic presence. . . . Someone who could give it out and dish it out." Curtin had earlier worked with Bonnie and Terry Turner on Saturday Night Live and in the 1993 film Coneheads.  She originally signed for just seven episodes, but soon agreed to extend her commitment. "I loved the character, but I also loved the sense of humor on the show," she later explained. "I had known John in New York, and I'm very comfortable with him. It made me laugh when John and I were working together -- there just would be puddles on the floor."

Reflecting on the show in 2005, Lithgow remarked "Jane was just perfect for it. She's a great comedy partner. She understands the role of a straight man; however, she also has a terrific streak of wildness herself so she creates this wonderful repressed character who occasionally spins out just as much as the aliens do."

Occupation
Mary works as a professor of Anthropology at the fictional Pendelton State University in Rutherford, Ohio. For approximately six months during the sitcom's 4th season, Mary served as dean of Pendleton's School of Arts and Sciences. However, she lost this job and returned to her role as professor after she was caught breaking into friend and colleague Judith's office after Dick convinced her that Judith was after her job.

Relationship with Dick
Mary and the 'father' of the alien group, who works at Pendelton as a physics professor, were forced to share an office. While Dick was attracted to her almost instantly, Mary took a long time to warm to Dick. After their initial success, Dick and Mary enjoyed an on-off relationship; Dick would often annoy Mary, causing her to grow angry and seemingly break up with him. However, in the next episode, they are nearly always back together (notable exception: when Dick was engaged to Mary, then discovered another alien had been sent to masquerade as his wife, leading Mary to believe he is committing polygamy. Even then, she forgave him.)

When Dick and his 'family' are called back to the home planet, Mary discovers Dick's alien identity; she is initially persuaded to return with them. However, she realises how much she would miss Earth, so Dick wipes her memory of him and his family. In an alternate ending, Dick returns and abducts her.

History
From hints in the show, Mary formerly drank a lot and often used her femininity to get what she wanted from men. From references and one episode about her parents, it appears that her father had affairs and her mother drank a lot. Mary comes from a seemingly average but trashy family, but she and sister Renata have become successfulRenata is rich, while Mary is a professor and doctor. In one episode, Dick marries Renata, in order to divorce her and get her to promise she will not build a library at Pendelton that will cast a shadow in Mary's office. Renata was played by guest star Megan Mullally (best known for playing Karen Walker on Will & Grace). Mary also has a younger brother, Roy Albright (Bronson Pinchot), who claims to have been abducted by aliens. This completely freaks out the family; to this end Sally and Harry take Roy out a cornfield to "killroy" as the plan is called. In the end, he is found out to be lying.

As seen in "The Dicks They Are A'Changin'", Mary was a part of the 1960s counterculture in her youth (flashbacks showed her dressed in hippie garb), though she mentions she "never made it to Woodstock". Mary attended UC Berkeley in the late '60s and was apparently involved in the Free Speech Movement there.

At one point during her youth, she worked at a Dairy Queen.

Alternate universe
In the episode "Dick'll Take Manhattan" from the sixth season, in which Dick, Harry and Sally enter into an alternate reality, an alternate universe Mary has a completely different personality and life. She is a shallow, airheaded and 'slutty' lounge singer at a dive bar in Manhattan. She uses her feminine wiles to get money and gifts from men. She attempts to do so with Dick Solomon but finds herself falling in love.

Pets

The Science of Sexual Orientation: A Reformed (and Reforming) Perspective
Dr. David Myers
The Science of Sexual Orientation:…
In June 2018, the RCA General Synod commended the "Great Lakes Catechism on Marriage and Sexuality" for consideration by the Commission on Theology (COT) and the wider RCA. In response, a diverse group of people from the LGBTQ community, parents, pastors, educators and others shared their thoughts with Room for All and the COT, offering alternative perspectives on a faithful ethic for living as sexual and gendered people of God. Room for All is grateful for the opportunity to share those responses in "Outsights" over the next several weeks.
Dr. David Myers, Michigan
Social psychologist, RCA ordained elder, davidmyers.org
The author of the "Catechism on Marriage and Sexuality" aims to affirm covenant marriage and the goodness of sexuality within marriage. And so do I. I have written two marriage-supporting books. I have explained the benefits of marriage and the toxicity of pornography in psychology textbooks. I have been a major donor to the National Marriage Project. In our support of marriage—and in our rooting our lives in Scripture—the Catechism author and I agree.
At a younger age, I further agreed that same-sex activity—even between long-term, faithful partners— was, as the proposed Catechism states, "immoral," and that Christians were "called to teach, rebuke, correct, and even discipline" those in same-sex relationships. But no more. I now affirm an inclusive marriage-supporting view: The world would be a happier and healthier place if, for all people, love, sex, and marriage routinely went together—for the following reasons (explained at tinyurl.com/MyersRCA):
Sexual orientation is a natural, enduring disposition. Multiple lines of research—from prenatal hormonal influences, genetics, and neuroscience—converge in indicating that our sexual orientation is something we do not choose. Considerable evidence also indicates that, especially for men, sexual orientation endures. Telling people otherwise has been the source of much anguish and suicide— and many failed heterosexual marriages. Small wonder that so many of yesterday's "ex-gay" ministry leaders are now "ex-ex-gays."
All humans have a "need to belong." We are social animals. We—all of us, whether gay or straight— flourish when deeply connected with others in close, enduring, mutually supportive relationships. We were not made to be alone. Covenant partnership is healthy.
"There's a wideness in God's mercy." Among the Bible's 31,103 verses, only seven explicitly mention same-sex behaviors (and none of those discuss same-sex covenant partnerships). That leaves scholars to exegete those seven "clobber passages" and to interpret Scripture's moral wisdom, based also on biblical teachings about marriage and human relationships. A growing Reformed- evangelical perspective argues that the church has misread the Bible, which actually supports a consistent sexual ethic for gay and straight people. A half-dozen recent books (including from within our RCA community—James Brownson's Bible, Gender, Sexuality: Reframing the Church's Debate on Same-Sex Relationships) have persuaded many of us that our former anti-gay views were not honoring biblical moral wisdom about covenant relationships.
In 21st century America, an anti-gay posture drives teens and young adults away from the church. In seeking to explain the dramatic rise in religious "nones," researchers Robert Putnam and David Campbell report that "intolerance of homosexuality" is "the single strongest factor" in alienating today's youth and young adults from the church. Two-thirds of Americans now support same-sex marriage (even more among young Americans). Thus, the moderate conservative columnist David
Brooks advises the church: "Put aside an effort that has been a communications disaster, reducing a rich, complex and beautiful faith into a public obsession with sex."
Thus we Reformed folk can appreciate the proposed Catechism's affirmation of marriage. But we can also, in the spirit of our ever-reforming tradition, appreciate the emerging scientific and biblical understandings of sexual orientation and covenant sexual ethics. . . . and without fueling the damaging public perception that the church is anti-gay and obsessed with sex.

At the Museum: Medical curiosities of the early 20th Century
Published 10:02 am Tuesday, August 1, 2017
By Rosemary Campbell
Bluegrass Heritage Museum
Many people in the community know that the Bluegrass Heritage Museum is located in the former Guerrant Mission Clinic and Hospital. The Guerrants dedicated their lives to caring for the medical needs of the residents of Clark County and eastern Kentucky.
Most of the third floor exhibits honor the building's history as a medical facility. The display case in the scrub room, for example, contains a variety of items used by the hospital and clinic in the care of their patients—syringes, transfusion bottles, gauze rolls, etc.
However, two artifacts on the far right side of the case's top shelf very likely were never used in the Guerrant Clinic, yet they probably provoke more questions from visitors than all of the other items. They would be no mystery to people of the 1920s and 1930s, though, since they were then popular "medical" self-help devices sold by the thousands to the public.
One is the Trados 25 Model Nose Shaper, offered by "M. Trilety, Face Specialist," according to the instruction booklet that accompanies it. This is a bent piece of brass with slots and screws, designed to fit over the nose and tie around the back and top of the head. An advertisement from 1918 claims that this model will "improve the shape of the nose by remoulding the cartilage and fleshy parts, safely, and painlessly." It was also promoted as an inexpensive alternative to surgery.
The idea was to move and tighten the screws at various appropriate positions, following directions and diagrams included in the booklet, to achieve the desired nose shape. The user was encouraged to wear it a minimum of 30 minutes per day, though quicker results could supposedly be achieved by wearing the device more frequently.
Ah, but don't be tempted to skip! M. Trilety warns, "I must caution you that the success you obtain will depend on your own diligence in applying the treatment….TO LEAVE OFF WEARING IT A SINGLE DAY…means that you will be obliged to continue the treatment longer.…"
Research for this article did not yield any personal testimonials as to Model 25's actual effectiveness. However, interest in such a thing is apparently still quite prevalent. Googling "nose shaping device" leads to about 1,360,000 results, many offering sleek, modern day versions of the tortuous-looking Trados 25!
The other object of curiosity in the display case is a glass tube ending in a partially flattened sphere, with a handle and an electric cord attached. This is an example of a "Violet Ray Machine." Such devices capitalized on the relatively new science of electricity and claimed to improve or cure an astoundingly wide variety of ailments.
The idea was to send a high-frequency current through the glass electrode (available in a variety of shapes for treating different parts of the body) which would produce "health-giving" ozone and a "cellular massage." The machine could be held on the body directly or a short distance away, depending on the nature of the treatment. It offered to provide either a tranquilizing effect or a stimulant to increase circulation. The operating manual states that the "ozone being driven directly thru the skin into the tissues [accomplishes] an 'ozonization' of the blood."
According to www.museumofquackery.com, "A hand-held coil feeds radio energy into a low-pressure gas electrode [the glass tube]. The energy is [transferred] into the human body, providing warmth via diathermy. At the same time, the gas discharge creates ozone and ultraviolet light, which were said to be effective in many skin diseases. More powerful versions of this apparatus were found in many physicians' offices."
Skin diseases weren't the only conditions that the Violet Ray Machine was supposed to help, according to its promoters. An advertisement in a 1927 issue of Popular Mechanics claims that it could be used to treat the following: "Asthma, Barbers' Itch, Boils, Blackheads, Catarrh, Chilblains, Colds, Constipation, Dandruff, Deafness, Earache, Eczema, Eye Disease, Falling Hair, Goitre [sic], Hay Fever, Headache, Insomnia, Lumbago, Nervousness, Neuralgia, Neuritis, Pains, Paralysis, Pimples, Rheumatism, Skin Diseases, Sore Throat, Sprains, Tonsilitis, and Whooping Cough."
Tens of thousands were sold between 1915 and 1950 by a variety of manufacturers. The museum's model, called the "Violetta," was made by the Bleadon-Dun Company of Chicago. Others producing Violet Ray Machines included the Renulife Electric Company of Detroit, Chas. A. Branston of Toronto, and Vi-Rex Electric Company of Chicago.
At least one suit was brought against a company in 1951 alleging, "The device was not an effective treatment for the conditions stated and implied, and it was not capable of producing the effects claimed." The result of the case: "Default decree of condemnation. The court ordered that the devices be released to the Food and Drug Administration."
Oh, well. Perhaps the machine wasn't completely useless. An article in the June 1931 issue of Science and Invention explained how the owner could have "Fun With a Violet Ray Machine: The Old Fashioned High Frequency Machine Stored Away in Your Attic Will Provide an Endless Source of Merriment Through These Spectacular Demonstrations." The article goes on to describe "several attractive demonstrations which can very well be used for impromptu parlor and lodge entertainments" built around the purple glow and electric circuit created by the Violet Ray Machine.
The Museum is grateful to Sharron Kirby and her late husband Jim for providing these curiosities to our collection.

JP Morgan CEO says has no interest in buying Deutsche Bank - Handelsblatt

FRANKFURT (Reuters) - JP Morgan (JPM.N) has no interest in buying Deutsche Bank (DBKGn.DE) the U.S. bank's chief executive told German daily Handelsblatt.
"It would not make any sense," Jamie Dimon told the paper. "If you only buy a company just to consolidate it, it is almost impossible to do without killing the patient."
Dimon told the paper that consolidation among Europe's banks could make sense, and appealed for a common deposit insurance scheme in Europe.
Dimon's remarks about Deutsche come on the same day that activist investor Hudson Executive Capital, led by JP Morgan's former Chief Financial Officer, took a 3.1 percent ownership stake in Germany's flagship lender.
