No interference was found between these anti-hypertensive drugs and etomidate, at least as far as the effect on heart rate, systolic and diastolic aortic blood pressure, respiratory rate and duration of sleep is concerned.

Ubuntu Gives Maverick a shot in the ARM - OMG! Ubuntu!
Excuse the dodgy pun but Ubuntu 10.10 is going to be a fantastic release for many reasons, not least of which is improved ARM architecture support.
Amongst the many improvements the Ubuntu ARM team have made happen this cycle are support for the community-driven, high-performance, embedded Dual-core ARM Cortex A9 mobile development OMAP4 Panda board and the forthcoming Beagle board XM which boasts 512mb of low-power RAM and a nippy 1Ghz Cortex A8 processor.
Just in case you fear installation of Ubuntu on ARM will be some terminal-filled nightmare the team has also sought to provide preinstalled SD images which, when installed to a SD card and booted for the first time, expand to present the user with a welcome screen.
Thanks to another community effort Ubuntu will be installable on Toshiba's recently released Android-powered Toshiba ARM netbook.
The Nvidia Tegra2 based device comes pre-installed with Android but, via some hackery-pokery, a fully working Ubuntu ARM image is available although for now there are also various other niggles including a lack of sound support.

It is allowable to eat pork or not?
We read in Leviticus 11:4-7 that the Jews were forbidden to eat pork. That is why they choose not to eat pork. But those Jewish laws are no more applicable to Christians. The Jews in the first congregation of Acts tried to force the Christians to obey the Jewish laws. That is why the church leaders decided to hold a large meeting in Jerusalem to discuss the matter. Read Acts 15:23-29. They made an important decision, and that is that the Jewish laws no longer apply to Christians. Read also: Acts 10:13-15.
But if somebody believes it is wrong, it may be better for him not to eat pork (Romans 14:13-23).

As much as its political experts would have you believe otherwise, Massachusetts doesn't matter when it comes to presidential elections. Her winner-take-all Electoral College allocation causes presidential candidates to ignore Massachusetts. But moving to proportional representation would increase the Commonwealth's political clout.
As any student of civics knows, the presidential candidate who wins the greatest share of Massachusetts's popular vote gets all 12 of her Electoral College votes. Unfortunately, since Massachusetts is reliably more Democratic than the rest of the nation (in 2000, Gore did 12% better in Massachusetts then he did overall), the choice of Massachusetts voters can't affect the outcome of presidential elections.
Judging by history, a close presidential election would find Massachusetts voting overwhelmingly for the Democratic candidate, so both Republicans and Democrats believe that courting Massachusetts voters is a waste of time. If the Democratic candidate leads the national polls, he would easily win Massachusetts in a landslide and so again neither Republicans nor Democrats would worry about Massachusetts's electoral votes.
Even if Republicans are sufficiently ahead nationally to have a chance at winning Massachusetts, then the Republicans would necessarily be doing so well in so many other states they wouldn't need Massachusetts' votes. Consequently, under all reasonable circumstances, wooing Massachusetts voters wouldn't increase a presidential candidate's chance of winning. There's a way for Massachusetts to make her electoral college votes matter.
Massachusetts should abandon her winner-take-all Electoral College allocation. Although 47 other states have identical electoral allocation mechanisms, the winner-take-all arrangement isn't mandated by the U.S. Constitution. Indeed, Maine and Nebraska use a different proportionally-based system in which it's possible (although it has never actually happened) that multiple candidates could receive some of the state's electoral votes.
Massachusetts would boost her political influence by adopting proportional representation under which the number of electoral votes a candidate received was proportional to the share of the popular votes he wins. So, for example, if you win 70% of the popular vote you would get 70% (with some rounding) of the Electoral College votes. Under such a system both major parties would fight for Massachusetts's votes even if the Democrats were assured of getting at least 51% of Massachusetts's popular vote.
Proportional representation would help Massachusetts attract more federal dollars. Imagine that polls give the Democratic presidential candidate a 12% lead in Massachusetts. Further imagine that a Republican president is considering awarding Massachusetts a $1 billion grant, and that this grant will win the Republicans 20,000 extra Massachusetts votes. Under our existing winner-take-all allocation, these extra 20,000 votes would provide no help to the Republican president, so politically he would be inclined to give the $1 billion to a more politically balanced state like Florida. In contrast, if Massachusetts had proportional representation it would be more competitive – winning an extra 20,000 Massachusetts votes might give the president another Electoral College delegate.
Obviously, moving to proportional representation would help Republican and third party presidential candidates who now have almost no chance at capturing any of Massachusetts's electoral votes. However, while Democratic presidential candidates would suffer, state Democratic officials would increase their influence because the national Democratic Party would now be in greater need of their support.
Unlike Massachusetts, a state like Florida wouldn't increase her political influence by adopting proportional representation. If the national polls give either major candidate about an equal chance of capturing Florida, then under a winner-take-all system a few thousand extra popular votes could cause a candidate to capture all of Florida's electoral votes. Consequently, under winner-take-all both major parties should spend heavily to bribe Floridians to vote their way. In contrast, if Florida used proportional allocation, then winning a few thousand more popular votes would at best win a candidate one more Electoral College vote. Therefore, even under proportional representation, a Massachusetts voter won't be nearly as important as a Florida voter, but at least presidential candidates would put some effort into earning our support.

Motorcycle Types Adventure / Dual-Sport Motocross pioneers join Motorcycle Hall of Fame
Motocross pioneers join Motorcycle Hall of Fame
The American Motorcyclist Association (AMA) is pleased to announce two more members of the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Class of 2009: Geoff and Bob Fox, pioneers in motocross technology and apparel. Geoff and Bob Fox will be among the motorcycling heroes honored at the 2009 induction ceremony at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino in Las Vegas this Dec. 5.
"Geoff and Bob Fox's brands are among the few in motorsports that have transcended their status as simply retail products and established themselves as part of motorcycling's culture," said AMA President and CEO Rob Dingman. "Now, as members of the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame, their accomplishments will become part of our shared heritage, as well."
Geoff and Bob Fox are responsible for two of the most recognizable brands in off-road motorcycle racing. Geoff Fox, with Moto-X Fox Inc., gave the world the Fox head logo, and launched one of the most ubiquitous brands found at motocross starting gates around the country. Bob Fox, with Fox Factory Inc., made his mark producing state-of-the-art suspension components for off-road motorcycles, and is now a leading provider of mountain-bike suspension.
Said Tom White, member of the Board of Directors of the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum, chairman of the Motocross/Supercross Committee and owner of The Early Years of Motocross Museum: "Bob and Geoff Fox's state-of-the-art products and designs have continued to lead, not only the motorcycle market, but the entire action and motorsports industries, for the last 30 years. Action-sports enthusiasts around the world wear the Fox-head branded logo, and the Fox-tail branded suspension is popular in every motorsport, not to mention the world-class industry leader in mountain-biking. The list of racers and athletes who have been associated with the Fox brands includes the true greats of their disciplines."
"It is a high honor to know that in December my brother, Bob, and I will be inducted into the AMA Hall of Fame," said Geoff Fox. "Neither of us ever expected we would deserve this recognition. As for myself, I believe that although my wife, Josie, and I established the firm foundation of business success, it has been the second generation, led by our kids, which has constructed the imposing edifice that is so visible around the world today."
Bob Fox added: "The Motorcycle Hall of Fame is truly the Who's Who of Motorcycling past and present, and I am positively thrilled about being nominated to join that very special group. Over the last 35-plus years, I've had the pleasure and privilege of working with, racing with — and just plain getting to know — so many really terrific individuals in motorcycling. I look forward to further broadening and deepening those relationships as a member of the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame."
Geoff and Bob Fox are the fourth and fifth members announced for the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Class of 2009. The others already announced are off-road racer Randy Hawkins, suspension pioneer Gilles Vaillancourt and off-highway rights activist Mona Ehnes.
The Foxes and the other members of the class of 2009 will officially be inducted into the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame this Dec. 5 at the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino. Impressive even by Las Vegas standards, with an 84-foot guitar marking the entrance and all the glitz and memorabilia that fans have come to expect at Hard Rock Café locations around the world, the Hard Rock Hotel & Casino has been recently renovated with new rooms, a new convention space and a new concert venue. Ticket information will be announced shortly on the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum website at www.MotorcycleMuseum.org.
Located on the park-like campus of the AMA in Pickerington, Ohio, the AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Museum honors individuals who have made lasting contributions to protecting and promoting the motorcycle lifestyle. Its members include those who have excelled in racing, road- and off-road riding, pushed the envelope in motorcycle design, engineering and safety, and championed the rights of riders in both the halls of government and the court of public opinion.
The AMA Motorcycle Hall of Fame Induction Committee includes 11 members in addition to the chairman. There are 10 committees, each representing a different aspect of motorcycling. Five represent various racing disciplines, and five represent non-racing interests.

In this 100 Day Marathon Plan review I am covering off on Marius Bakken's new methodology to get yourself all prepared for a marathon within 100 days.
One of the goals of most runners around the world is to be able to complete long distance runs, like marathons.
Most of us would already be happy if we were able to complete the run since covering the distance alone can be very challenging.
Does Marius Bakken's method to set you up for marathon success in 100 days cater for you?
Yes it does. It covers everything from "just" finishing to doing it in 2 hrs and 45 minutes.
The 100 Day Marathon Plan is different from other running programs. Therefore, let's have a look at his method in more detail and see if it is right for you.
Marius is a former Olympian. In his top days he was the fastest non-African runner on the 5k. During those years he trained with and learned a lot from the Kenyans. He went to Kenya numerous times and all together spent about a year in Kenya, studying the Kenyans.
He also worked with the Italians and studied their methods to prepare optimally for big events. The Italian men have won two out of the last six Olympic marathons. This is remarkable given the top marathons all over the world are completely dominated by the Kenyans.
Winning the biggest, most important marathon on two out of the last six occassions is more than just coincidence!
Most of the marathon plans found in the market today are very focused on mileage. The cornerstone of those programs is lots of easy runs with a weekly long run from beginning to end.
Where 100 Day Marathon Plan is structurally different is that it applies the Kenyan and Italian training principles. This means for one that more of the running is at a higher intensity than in traditional running programs. Kenyans are very good at increasing their lactate threshold by doing runs that are faster than conversational pace.
The Italians are masters at periodization and making sure that a runner peaks at exactly the right time. Marius will let you start with doing shorter more intense work and builds it up over time. Where traditional marathon running programs are more tiring, Marius focuses on getting you ready at exactly the right time.
Crudely said, the first part of the 100 Day Marathon Plan gets you ready for a 5k.
It then builds it up to get you ready for 10k and half marathons.
And then in the end sets you up for success in your marathon.
However, don't get fooled by thinking this is easy!
Marius knows like nobody else that preparation for a marathon is hard work. His approach is just a little more modern than the standard marathon training schedules. The training build-up is more gradual than in most marathon running programs.
With the traditional 12 week marathon training program you can be tired already when you get to the most important part of your marathon training. The benefit of the 100 Day Marathon Plan is that you will get to this stage still hungry and fresh, which also helps you get through the program with a bigger chance of staying injury-free.
When you are a marathon rookie and this is the first marathon training program you will do, this book is an excellent choice. I see too many wanna-be marathoners who need to abandon their first time marathon training because of injuries half way through. The 100 Day Marathon Plan helps prevent that.
One of the most interesting parts of the program is that the long runs are set up like run/walks, where you typically spend 70% of your time running and 30% of your time walking.
Marius' experience is that this still helps you achieve the benefits of the long run, but makes the long runs a lot more enjoyable and recovery after it easier and faster.
This in turn means that you can do more in the days after your long run than you would do in a traditional running program.
So, what are the contents of this ebook?
Well, after the Introduction, the book starts off with the Philosophy, i.e. an explanation of the Kenyan and Italian training principles.
It then discusses the difficulties of Picking a Schedule. How many runs do you want to do per week, what are your goals and how do you go about switching schedules half way through?
Then follows the bulk of the book which covers the Marathon Training Plans followed by a chapter with "Schedule FAQs".
This chapter covers anything about adjusting your schedule, what to do when you have to miss practice and what to do when you have more, or less, days then 100 days to your marathon.
Following that are some more general, but not uninteresting chapters about Running Shoes, Injuries/Weight Loss and Nutrition.
Especially the nutrition component is important as it explains all about the right marathon diet and carbo-loading, which can make a huge difference to how well you do in the last 10k of your marathon (when many meet the "marathon wall").
What then follows are two chapters about Race Day, with oh so important advice about pace (really need to follow Marius' recommendations here!) and some general advice about cramping, stomach cramps and other tips.
Following that is a chapter about Special Marathons, split in two sections, i.e. fastest marathons and most beautiful/special marathons. If there is anything bad to say about this book, then it is probably that this section is a "bit of fluff".
Having said that, it is a good overview of marathons that are either big, fast or in extremely beautiful places.
Marius then covers a chapter on Heart Rate Training which provides some useful advice if you are new to heart rate training and a final chapter (like an appendix) on how to best benefit from the book, how to read the training sessions, discussing Marius' concept of Smart Strides, etc.
All in all, a very complete book that doesn't leave much to the imagination.
The book comes in digital format (ebook). I initially struggled with ebooks, you may be hesitant as well. But the good thing about a digital format is that it does not only contain written content, you can watch videos as well and you have access to a marathon calculator and other tools which a standard book can't provide!
100 Day Marathon Plan too Expensive? No!
The 100 Day Marathon Plan is a great running ebook setting you up for success in the marathon in a relatively short time.
As said before, the book caters for everyone, i.e. runners wanting to finish the marathon uptil runners who want to do it in 2 hrs 45 minutes. One thing that may hold you back from ordering this top-quality material is the price.
You may ask yourself, why shouldn't I just grab one of the free marathon training programs I can find online? Or can I just do some Hal Higdon marathon training? Obviously, quality is a big factor here. Marius has been to the Olympics. He knows running.
Additionally, I think you need to consider the time you'll invest in preparing for your marathon. Hours and hours. Every week. With that much of time invested, I think you owe it to yourself to get top-notch information.
And yes, with $47,- it is a little bit more expensive than traditional running books. You need to keep in mind though that the $47,- does include help from the big man himself. During your preparation period Marius is available to you as your personal running coach. You can ask all the questions you want.
Especially when you get to that point that you need to make adjustments to your running program due to other commitments or when you have doubts about what to do next, Marius is there for you personally to guide you through. That alone justifies the price tag, let alone the top quality material that 100 Day Marathon Plan provides to you.
100 Day Marathon Plan is well organized, contains valuable information and is written electronically therefore you will be able to receive it once you hit the order button with a few mouse clicks.
Another special about the ebook is that there are 25 videos included that include instructions to help you through the training schedules. They also assist you in dealing with issues such as carbo-loading and proper stretching techniques.
All in all, the 100 Day Marathon Plan is worth it for everyone wanting to do a marathon and comes highly recommended!

UH Samaritan Medical Center appoints new Chief Medical Officer
Special to Richland Source
ASHLAND -- Timothy Kasprzak, MD, MBA, has assumed the role of Chief Medical Officer at UH Samaritan Medical Center in Ashland. The appointment was effective June 1.
Kasprzak is replacing James Mooney, M.D., who stepped down after serving in the role for the past four years. Mooney remains at UH providing inpatient clinical services.
Kasprzak comes to UH from the MetroHealth System where he served in multiple leadership roles including Medical Staff President and Director of Abdominopelvic and Oncologic Imaging. Kasprzak said he was impressed with UH Samaritan and the Ashland community immediately.
"I decided to join UH Samaritan because of the opportunity to have an impact during a time of significant change. The team at Samaritan is outstanding and it is a sincere honor to be able to serve them," Kasprzak said. "The strong sense of stewardship amongst the employees of Samaritan was clear to me the first time I walked into the hospital. The staff are energized by our mission and their enthusiasm for taking care of the patients resonates with me.
Kasprzak said the best-selling feature of Samaritan and the city of Ashland is the strong family atmosphere that permeates.
"The genuine sense of care and concern that people have for each other in this community is unparalleled. It is my goal to contribute to the health, well-being and happiness of this exceptional community. The patients are the reason we are here," he said. "Everything from our dedicated smiling volunteers at the entrance to our most sophisticated medical interventions is about taking care of our patients.
"When people come to our hospital as a patient or visitor, they are usually under substantial stress and anxiety. We want to offer a comprehensive red carpet approach to the medical care experience at Samaritan to help ease those concerns."
Kasprzak's focus initially will be on expansion and delivery of care.
"Healthcare is undergoing tremendous change as we seek to improve quality and access, while decreasing costs. UH and Samaritan are taking a proactive approach to expanding our community presence and integrating care delivery in a way that is patient centric," he noted. "We want to deliver outstanding care in the community in which people live.

Fr. Adolph Kolping. The foundation of the Catholic Social Teachings is the concept of the individual. While human nature was formerly understood to be two-dimensional, individual and social, this concept has been expanded through the Church's social proclamations to become three-dimensional, i.e. an individual, a social, and a natural level.
While individuality signifies the unique, unrepeatable human being, sociality covers the fact that we are dependent on and responsible for one another. Our nature reminds us that we are part of the environment and must bear responsibility for it.
As a Catholic social movement, the Kolping Society considers making its members more aware of their environmental responsibility which arises from man's nature one of its tasks. At the same time, the Kolping Society is called upon to develop pilot activities and initiatives which serve the responsible preservation and management of the environment, and to introduce ecological initiatives into the political sphere.
The extremely rapid and in part people-generated climate change is one of the most universal threats to those living today and for coming generations. Through their behaviour, people contribute to a considerable degree to the concentration of green-house gases. The main reasons for the increase caused by human beings are the burning of fossil fuels, such as oil, natural gas, or coal; the strong rise of motorized and air traffic; the clearing of forests by deliberately set fires, as well as the use of chlorofluorocarbon in homes and in industry. All these factors contribute to the global warming of land surfaces and oceans.
Over the course of the earth's history, there have always been events that led to a decrease in the diversity of species, for instance, volcanic eruptions, the crashing of meteorites, or ice ages. However, the current decline of biological diversity is due to a large number of species becoming extinct in ways and to an extent that have been unknown until now. Causes for this development are e.g. the man-generated climate change, the massive clearing of virgin forests, monoculture and/or tight crop rotation, combined with high use of pesticides and chemical fertilizers in the intensive industrial agriculture, the decrease in water quality in rivers, lakes, and oceans, as well as the low numbers of nature reserves. The decline of biodiversity is connected to the decrease of genetic diversity. Biological and genetic diversity are, however, the foundation of human well-being, because not only the food provisions for humankind, but also the possibilities for medical advancement and the diversity of raw materials depend on them.
Through the flow of goods and people, which comes with globalization and world-wide tourism, both plants and animals are introduced into regions where they are in competition with the native fauna and flora. The introduction of such new species often results in displacing locally established species and in disturbing the balance of the species.
In our times, progress and development is equated to a large extent with economic growth. Economic growth, however, is part of rising industrial production. This again leads to an ever-increasing use of resources and energy, as well as the accumulation of more and more waste that pollutes the environment. However, since the resources are limited world-wide, the reckless use of resources threatens the possibilities of development for future generations.
The negative consequences of the use of fossil fuels in the production of energy are leading to an ever-increasing utilization of bio-energy. The production of bio-mass can, on the one hand, open up new income possibilities for the farmers but, through the large-scale cultivation of bio plants, it also leads to the loss of tropical forests, savannahs, and peat bogs with the corresponding CO2 emissions, which are harmful to the atmosphere, as well as to depletion of the world of plants and animals. The advantages of the use of bio-mass for energy production with respect to its climate neutrality are countered by the disadvantages where bio-diversity, quality of the environment, water balance, and soil quality are concerned. In addition, the cultivation of biomass for energy production competes with the cultivation of food items, which leads to rising food costs affecting particularly the poor. Land disputes and violations of human rights often accompany the cultivation of large-scale biomass plantation in developing countries.
Nuclear energy is an unobjectionable energy source with regard to the pollution of the environment. At the same time, however, the use of nuclear energy for energy production carries high risks, because one reactor accident can cause unforeseeable and long-lasting damages, and the permanent disposal of the used material is also not reliably secured world-wide. Every permanent disposal of waste products according to the existing knowledge is tied to a thousand years of higher radioactivity and is not secured anywhere in the world. Furthermore, already during the mining of the uranium, the resident population and the miners are exposed to high radioactive contamination which leads to cancer and to genetic deviations.
On the one hand, the progressive discovery of the genetic code and the corresponding increase in knowledge of the bio-sciences open many expectations and hopes but, on the other hand, they are a threat to human dignity. While on one side, the rise in discoveries leads to opportunities to cure diseases and restore human dignity to the life of the sick, there is, on the other side, a growing threat that the individual becomes the victim of experiments in the various periods of his or her life, and that life might be destroyed. The possibilities of cloning, the genetically engineered changes of the human germ lines, the forming of chimeras through mixing human and animal embryos constitute a very real threat to human dignity and personhood.
The primary prerequisite for overcoming the ecological crises is a new attitude towards nature and the environment. We must realize that the fate of mankind is closely connected to the fate of nature. We therefore must recognize our special responsibility for the environment as a whole and then act accordingly. We must let go of the attitude that relegates the environment to an object and, instead, develop an outlook which shows respect for nature. In future, nature must be understood more as coexisting with us, rather than merely providing us with our own living space.
Saving the environment is not the responsibility of politicians, scientists, or economists alone. By our conduct, every one of us contributes to the saving or the destruction of the environment. The deciding factor will be the lifestyle of every single individual, his or her attitude towards nature and his or her sense of responsibility for it. The lifestyle prevalent in the industrialized nations, with its orientation towards comfort and convenience, consumption and high mobility, leads not only to a high use of resources but is, through its demands, also partly responsible for the destruction of the environment, particularly in parts of the world where many people already live in absolute poverty now. However, the environmental destructions in those countries lead to even more poverty among the inhabitants with the consequence of increased migration.
Therefore, the call is for a lifestyle that is determined by respect for the intrinsic value of nature, the renouncing of all unnecessary consumption of resources, as well the spirit of solidarity with mankind as a whole, and consideration for the chances of the lives of future generations.
Individuals will adopt a new lifestyle which is environmentally responsible only when they realize how much their own actions affect the living conditions of the whole creation. Every single individual must therefore strive to better comprehend our ecological dependence and out of this awareness develop an ecologically sound conduct. A lifestyle that concentrates more on human fellowship, social contacts, and cultural commitment can not only decrease the use of resources but can also lead to a better quality of life.
Behaving in a conscientious, ecologically responsible manner is not only required in private life but also in the world of work. Starting from a concept that work contributes to the personal development of the individual, is a service to the community, and shapes the environment, the impact of work on the environment must be given greater consideration. It is an ethical necessity that industrial processes be devised in ways that minimize energy consumption and assure the economical use of resources. Everyone who participates in the work process also carries a responsibility for the economical utilization of resources and the avoidance of defective products and waste.
The environment is affected not only by work processes and the behaviour of individuals in the work force, but also by the way in which economic systems are set up. The economy and technology are meant to serve the development of human beings. But since man is part of the ecological inter-connections, these must be given more consideration by the economy. By providing the necessary legal framework, legislation must ensure a socio-economic market system that incorporates more ecological objectives. Here, particularly an ecologically oriented market economy can also contribute to the creation of new and urgently needed jobs.
Increasing amounts of spare time and the resulting leisure industry also contribute more and more to the destruction of the environment. Therefore, it becomes necessary to also change our approach to leisure time activities. We must return to spending our time to develop our creativity, for social contacts, to regenerate ourselves. The leisure industry must also take ecological circumstances into account. This requires the individual to rely on regional recreational opportunities to avoid additional burden on the environment.
The threat to nature and the environment is obvious today; few people dispute the fact that protection and remedial measures are necessary. Human beings have various reasons for their actions. For Christians, Muslims, and Jews, the commitment to the environment becomes even more important because of their belief that God created Heaven and Earth in harmony, according to His plan and creative divine will. The individual, created in God's image, has been given the mandate to uphold God's will and bring it to fruition. As God's creature, the individual is responsible to God for the creation entrusted to him or her. The basis of Christian commitment to a future, in which people can live in human dignity on an inhabited earth, is the biblical faith that the world is God's creation, that He redeemed it and wants to bring it to completion. Therefore, mankind has to care for, work with, and protect what God has created.
Even in our own interest, we have to take care of our environment. In the long term, the destruction of the environment deprives us of life's basic foundation; in the short term, there will be damage to our health and loss of nature as means of recreation. Therefore, we must not only look at our immediate surroundings but also feel obligated in solidarity to consider the consequences of our actions. We must use ethical considerations in choosing between short-term self-interest and solidarity-based responsibility for our fellow men and women, including future generations, taking into consideration the principle of lasting effects.
Respect for all forms of life is the foundation of a new ecological approach. However, among all living creatures, human beings alone have a special status which obliges them to bear a distinct responsibility. In God's plan, every creature has its own significance and, as such, is the object of man's ethical responsibility. In addition, man is responsible to God for preserving the creation. In this context, we have to remain aware of the fact that humanity can be developed only from nature. Man plays a decisive role in determining the survival of life in nature.
Man's special status in the order of creation demands complete protection of human life in all stages; this is partially covered in the Catalogue of Human Rights. Every human being has a right to life; the unborn, the disabled, the old, and the terminally ill.
Due to the development of medicine and technology in the area of reproduction, human life can now be manipulated. In the context of the wish to have children, which in itself is something to be supported, one must take into consideration that this wish for a child must not be valued higher than human dignity. A test-tube fertilization is to be rejected.
The new discoveries that were made on the genetic base within the context of regenerative and disease-related therapies show a great variety of new treatment options. The treatment measures that were developed on the basis of stem cells have proved to be most successful and are worthy of support. However, the surgical procedures done within the context of the germ-line therapy affect not only the person involved but also possible descendants and thereby the unique and unrepeatable personhood of the human being and can therefore not be justified by anything. This also applies to reproductive cloning. The individual human identity must have complete protection.
The prospects and the quality of life of human beings also depend to a large degree on the diversity of the plants and animals which surround them. The diversity in creation is not only a reflection of divine magnificence but also the basis of an on-going functioning of life cycles. However, today many species of plants and animals are threatened by increasing environmental pollution or have been destroyed already.
Human beings must give special protection to the many varieties of plant and animal species. It is therefore very urgent to increase nature and wildlife reserves; to promote ecologically acceptable farming; and to avoid damage to soil, rivers, lakes, and oceans, as well as the air. Every individual can promote the protection of species and animals by practicing good stewardship of what he/she is responsible for (livestock, fields, gardens, etc.), and - as a hiker or tourist – by avoiding intentional or unintentional destruction of plants and animals. The expansion of the traffic structure for private vehicles, such as roads and express ways, also contributes to a further loss of natural biotope areas as well as species. By switching to public transportation, people can therefore make a contribution to the prevention of carving up more and more species-rich country sides.
In addition to efforts being made to create a proper framework for the steadily growing globalized economy, there are endeavours under way to grant patent protection to plants and animals that are created by macro-biological and non-biological processes. However, these endeavours are in conflict with the traditional rights of the farmers and the established human right to nature. The plants and animal that have patent protection threaten particularly indigenous communities and the people who practice traditional farming, because the newly developed and bred plants and animals are often created from the genetic information of the animals and plants that constitute their basis of life. A patent protection on life is generally not acceptable.
Inexcusable cruelty is often inflicted upon animals during experiments or by inappropriate keeping. For that reason animal experimentation must be reduced to the minimum that is required for medical research. Crowding large numbers of animals together causes the animals great suffering and does not suit the species. People should therefore choose appropriate and, if at all possible, animal products from their own region.
Wasteful use of energy threatens the environment. The unrestricted growth of energy consumption not only affects pollution of soil, air, and water, it also leads to climatic changes due to global warming. The use of non-renewable fossil fuels, (coal, oil, gas) must be urgently reduced, not only in consideration of future generations but also for the protection of the environment. The nuclear energy production poses a high security risk and is therefore only conditionally suitable to replace the loss of energy production from fossil fuels. The use of renewable energy from sun, water, wind and biomass also generates environmental problems and, what is more, it cannot fill the energy requirements. In addition to reducing energy consumption, the future utilization of hydrogen and solar energy, as well as energy from nuclear fission, are other alternatives. Energy reduction can be achieved through technological advances, through reorganization of industrial processes, and also by changes in people's personal lifestyles. Required are a massive expansion of renewable energies, investments in improvements of efficiency, and economising.
The ever-growing mountains of garbage and the resulting pollution of soil, air, and water cannot be ignored. The difficulties of waste disposal are increasing constantly. It is therefore imperative that we find ways to avoid, reduce, or recycle more effectively the waste that we produce. Solving the waste disposal problem by shipping the garbage to countries of the Third World is yet another way in which our conduct violates the necessary orientation on the international common good.
Compared to the past, the costs of transportation and travel are low and this allows people an ever-increasing mobility. However, this rise in mobility goes hand in hand with larger energy consumption and pollution of the environment. In view of the preservation of creation and with regards to the risks of climate change, people must utilize the opportunities of mobility responsibly; they should, if at all possible, fall back on travel possibilities that spare the environment, and when shopping - food items in particular - choose regional products.
A first important and essential step for protecting the creation is the awareness of nature in its intrinsic value. Today, it is increasingly exposed to destruction and endangering through the actions of people. Particularly in a world that is becoming more urbanized, the sensitization for the beauty and diversity of nature is of great importance, in order to lead the individual to a deepening of his/her affinity to nature as creation and as a gift of God. In this context, it will be necessary to talk about the respect for nature's intrinsic value but also about the necessary yet to be limited economic utilization and to point out the consequences of a destruction of ecologically functioning systems.
Along with the passing on of insights into the causes and the consequences of environmental destruction, the educational work must also impart very concrete information as to how and with what personal and societal initiatives the environment can be protected successfully. In this context, the areas of action must be prioritized utilizing new scientific discoveries, the linking of questions regarding the protection of the environment, economic development, and world-wide social justice. This corresponds to the concept of a lastingly effective development.
For the different areas of action, concrete proposals and models must be worked out as to how the individual can make his/her contribution to the preservation of the creation through changing his/her lifestyle and through behaviour patterns that conserve resources. The community of the Kolping Society gives the individual support and orientation with regards to the acquisition of new behaviour patterns and takes initiatives which can be implemented only through common efforts, such as the running of seminars, the publishing of brochures and papers, and the organization of events on a given subject.
Along with changes in the lifestyles of every individual, society needs practice fields for feasible ways of environment-conscious conduct and exemplary initiatives of communities. By means of measures that protect the countryside and nature, Kolping Families and Kolping Societies can set visible signs for society, such as: Kolping Families participating in garbage and waste removal and the recycling of raw materials; removing garbage from the countryside; starting re-foresting programs which also include locally traditional species of trees; taking up measures against erosion or using agricultural methods that preserve nature, for instance organic farming. Exemplary is also the support of and participation in initiatives towards the development and promotion of cycles of regional economies, which include regionally available raw materials and products and thereby create not only jobs in the sense of a development that is viable on a long-term basis, but also avoid means of transportation that use up resources.
Whereas the behaviour of the individual and of ecologically interested groups is of great importance, the global problems can be solved only if and when they are accompanied by appropriate measures taken in the economic and socio-political arena. The Kolping Society considers it its task to become sufficiently competent in global matters, as well as in various areas of special interest, to be able to participate in ecology-political discussions and thereby become part of the political decision-making process. In cooperation with other groups within the civic society, the Kolping Society endeavours to gain influence on political decisions with regard to the objective of a lastingly viable development. Here, the solution lies not in the general condemnation of progress, but what is required is the development of an ethic of progress which meets the challenges of the environment, considers future generations, and is guided by the principles of a world-wide social justice.
We recognize the special position and responsibility of Man in the Order of Creation and his responsibility for nature as his environment.
We commit ourselves to the protection of human life in all the phases of his life and the safeguarding of human dignity.
We support measures for the preservation of the variety of species of plants and animals.
We promote a responsible use of energy and the expansion of renewable energies.
We commit ourselves against patents on life.
By means of our educational work we contribute to making the people sensitive towards a gentle handling of nature and pointing to specific measures against the destruction of the environment.
We initiate specific actions aimed at environmental protection and at the preservation of biodiversity.
We motivate people to lead a sustainable and environmentally compatible lifestyle.

KERRY.U.S.READY TO TAKE MORE REFUGEES FROM SYRIA
The United States will increase the number of refugees it takes in by 15,000 over each of the next two years, bringing the total to 100,000 by 2017, U.S. Secretary of State John Kerry said after talks with his German counterpart on Sunday.The remarks may show increasing U.S. willingness to help cope with the mass migration of Syrians although the offer is modest when compared with the hundreds of thousands that are moving to Europe and in particular, Germany. Kerry did not say how many of the additional refugees would be from Syria but pledged that the United States was ready to help.
"In consultation with Congress, we will continue to explore ways to increase those figures while maintaining robust security," Kerry told a news conference after meeting German foreign minister Frank-Walter Steinmeier. "The need is enormous, but we are determined to answer the call." Kerry also announced he will hold talks on the sidelines of the U.N. General Assembly in New York this week on ways to restart negotiations on a political solution to end Syria's war."We have agreed on certain formats and processes by which we should try and proceed," he said, adding that he would meet with Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov and Iranian Foreign Minister Mohammad Javad Zarif to discuss the situation in Syria."This will be a very timely meeting in New York and will give us tremendous opportunity to be able to work together and find some ways forward."Kerry's comments on refugees address calls on U.S. President Barack Obama to help more in the crisis. Obama has said the U.S. will accept at least 10,000 Syrians over the coming year displaced by the four-year-old civil war.
His announcement comes ahead of a Sept. 23 emergency summit meeting of European Union leaders to address the stream of refugees that has overwhelmed the region.He said the United States would like to take in more refugees in the coming year but needed additional funding from Congress to hire more people to process the refugees."We are doing what we know we can manage immediately," he told a news conference. "As soon as we have the opportunity to try to up that we will … welcome more people in these kinds of circumstances."Countries disagree as to who should take responsibility for the nearly 500,000 people who have crossed the Mediterranean into Europe this year alone, prompting Hungary's use of water cannon and razor wire on its border with Serbia.Many of the same fears shape the debate in Europe as in the United States, where the number of refugees allowed in slowed sharply after the attacks on Sept. 11, 2001. Some Republicans have warned that the administration could open the door to potential militants.Congressman Bob Goodlatte and Senator Chuck Grassley, Republicans who head the judiciary committees in the U.S. Senate and House of Representatives, said in a statement the proposal lacked "a concrete and foolproof plan to ensure that terrorists won't be able to enter the country."
Aid groups, meanwhile, have been critical of plans to allow in only 10,000 Syrians, given the large size of the American economy and population. They have called for ten times as many to be admitted.
Kerry has pushed for renewed efforts to find a political solution to the crisis and urged Russia and Iran, who back Syrian President Bashar al-Assad, to convince him to negotiate an end to the war.

The procedure at the Niš Institute for Emergency Medical Services concluded with the signing of a joint agreement on the dispute settlement
The collective labor dispute at the Niš Institute for Emergency Medicine in was resolved amicably through the Republic Agency for the Peaceful Settlement of Labor Disputes, on the occasion of concluding a collective agreement with the employer.
This procedure was initiated based on the proposal for the initiation of a procedure for the peaceful settlement of a collective labor dispute between the Union of the Niš Institute for Emergency Medical Services (SZZHMP), and the employer, i.e. the Niš Institute for Emergency Medical Services. Both parties agreed to resolve the dispute peacefully before the Agency.
Prof. Dr. Goran Obradović was appointed as the acting conciliator. He set up the Conciliation Board at the first hearing including representatives of the parties to the dispute and the acting conciliator. After three hearings, a joint recommendation was agreed suggesting the way to resolve the disputed issue. All parties to the proceedings unanimously adopted the proposed Agreement, after which the Dispute Resolution Agreement was signed. If the subject matter of the dispute is a collective agreement, the law stipulates that the agreement becomes the basis for concluding, amending and/or supplementing the collective agreement. If, however, the subject matter of the dispute is not a collective agreement, the agreement has the power of an enforceable document.
In this way, at the Niš Institute for Emergency Medical Services, the representatives of the employer and the trade union gave another example of how social dialogue can be successfully conducted, by opting for the procedure for the peaceful resolution of a collective labor dispute in accordance with the recommendation of the Government of the Republic of Serbia that labor disputes be resolved through institutional mechanisms.

'Tricky scam' threatens Michigan taxpayers
Mecosta County treasurer warns property owners of suspicious letters
By Alicia Jaimes, alicia.jaimes@pioneergroup.com
Published 4:00 am EST, Monday, January 13, 2020
Mecosta County Treasurer Sherry Earnest said she hopes to help protect residents from falling for the latest scam where people are robbing taxpayers of property and Social Security benefits. Should residents receive a letter they believe is a scam, Earnest encourages them to contact her at the County Treasurer's Office. The office is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, inside the Mecosta County Courthouse, 400 Elm St., Big Rapids. Their phone number is 231-592-0169. (Pioneer photo/Taylor Fussman)
Mecosta County Treasurer Sherry Earnest said she hopes to help protect residents from falling for the latest scam where people are robbing taxpayers of property and Social Security benefits. Should residents
BIG RAPIDS — After receiving a news release about the latest scam, Mecosta County Treasurer Sherry Earnest hopes to keep residents informed and secure as they deal with state tax debt.
"Property taxes are stressful and confusing enough without scammers trying to rob our property owners," she said.
Earnest refers to a news release sent out by the Michigan Department of Treasury informing Michigan taxpayers about an aggressive scam making the rounds through the U.S. Postal Service.
"In the scheme, taxpayers receive what appears to be a government-looking letter about an overdue tax bill, asking individuals to immediately contact a toll-free number to resolve a state tax debt," the release stated. "The letter aggressively threatens to seize a taxpayer's assets ― including property and Social Security benefits ― if the state tax debt is not settled."
Described as a "tricky scam" by Deputy State Treasurer Ann Good, the piece of correspondence appears credible to the taxpayer because it uses specific personal facts about their real outstanding tax debt that's pulled directly from publicly available information. The scammer's letter attempts to lure the taxpayer into a situation where they could make a payment to a criminal.
The release goes on to encourages taxpayers to remember their rights and to contact the Treasury through a verified number, should they have questions about outstanding state tax debt or if they believe they have received a letter from a scammer. The number for the Treasury's Collections Service Center is 517-636-5265.
"I would like to let the public know that they can call my office or the Michigan Department of Treasury if they receive any notices that pertain to their property taxes," Earnest said. "We are here to help, not take their property."
The County Treasurer's Office is open from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m., Monday through Friday, inside the Mecosta County Courthouse, 400 Elm St., Big Rapids.

Asturian by birth and Puerto Rican by adoption, he was a journalist, a man of literature, an educator and a political leader. His poetry was mainly Romantic in nature and his stories celebrated traditional customs. His political ideals followed the conservative line of autonomist thinking. He was Secretary of the Treasury in the Puerto Rico Autonomous Government (1898). He wrote the lyrics of La Borinqueña, Puerto Rico's official hymn. He was also a passionate defender of the Spanish language.
Manuel Fernández Juncos was born December 11, 1846, in the town of Tresmonte in Asturias, Spain. He moved to Puerto Rico with his family in 1857, when he was 11 years old. His first home on the island was in Ponce. He arrived on the island with the primary education he had received in his hometown, but he continued to educate himself.
In 1865, he settled in Vega Baja, where he married Dolores Náter Marrero. There, he also met the poet and journalist José Gualberto Padilla, who encouraged Fernández Juncos to try journalism. His first writings were published in El Porvenir, a San Juan periodical founded by José Julián Acosta, and he later contributed to El Derecho in Ponce, La Razón in Mayagüez and El Clamor del País, an autonomist periodical, among others.
In 1877, after settling permanently in San Juan, he founded El Buscapié, a weekly literary publication. Later, in 1877, he founded the Revista Puertorriqueña. It was in these publications that he published his traditional local tales – mostly satirical and humorous – poetry, biographical and historical essays, and works of social, political and cultural criticism, as well as studies and literary criticism of new Puerto Rican authors. He also promoted new literary talents by publishing their works for the first time in the pages of the weekly.
Much of the writing related to the customs of Puerto Rico that was published in his periodicals was collected, later, in his books, Tipos y caracteres (1882) and Costumbres y tradiciones (1883). The biographical essays he had previously published were collected in Semblanzas puertorriqueñas (1888).
In politics, he joined the Liberal Reformist Party and, later, the Puerto Rican Autonomist Party, which was created in 1887. That year was known as "The Terrible Year" because of the political persecution that he and other autonomists suffered, he was jailed several times. He supported the political approach of Rafael María Labra and José Julián Acosta, who promoted an administrative, but not political autonomy that would maintain the ties with Spain.
In 1897, the Autonomist Party split apart and José Celso Barbosa and other dissidents formed the Orthodox, Liberal or Pure Autonomist Party. That same year, after Puerto Rico obtained autonomy from Spain, he was named Secretary of the Treasury and joined the autonomist cabinet.
After the Spanish-American War of 1898, he withdrew from political life. He continued working on behalf of the Puerto Rican culture in the cultural and philanthropic arenas, however. With the process of Americanization beginning on the island, he fervently defended the Spanish language. He wrote primary school textbooks in Spanish, including Los primeros pasos en castellano (1901), Libro cuarto de lectura (1902), Canciones escolares (1903), Compendio de moral para las escuelas (1904), Antología portorriqueña (1907) and Lecturas escogidas (1910).
His concern for the social well-being of the island led him to become a delegate of the Spanish Red Cross in Puerto Rico, one year after it was founded in 1895. He supported and contributed to the founding of other institutions such as the San Juan Municipal Library, the Civil Institute of Secondary Education and the Popular Education Institution. In 1906, he also created the Home for Children, which provided food, clothing and shelter. It was initially established on the ground floor of the San Juan Council House and in 1926 was moved to a building in Miramar.
He was president of the Puerto Rican Athenaeum and director of the Antillean Academy of Language. He was also a member of the Spanish Cervantes Academy, the American Academy of Political and Social Sciences, the Geographic Institute of Argentina, and the Liceo Hidalgo in Mexico. In 1907, he received medals from the Puerto Rican Athenaeum and the Spanish Casino. In 1916, the University of Puerto Rico in Río Piedras awarded him an honorary doctoral degree.
He died on August 18, 1928, in San Juan. In 1954, the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico adopted his poem, "La tierra de Borinquen", as the official hymn, titled La borinqueña.

Q: Finding interval convergence $\sum\frac{x^k}{k^k}$ How would I find the interval of convergence for
$\sum\frac{x^k}{k^k}$
I did the ratio test.
$\frac{x^{k+1}}{(k+1)^{(k+1)}}$*$\frac{k^k}{x^k}$
$\frac{x k^k}{(k+1)(k+1)^k}$
I got
$k\rightarrow\infty$
$x\frac{1}{k+1}\frac{1}{e}$
$=0$
$-1<0(x)<1$
But I am stuck in this part.

I'm a closet photographer born by passion and hobby. I've been shooting since I was in grade school, my first camera was a Kodak 110. Photographing pets and our yard.
In junior high, my grandma gave me my first 35mm point and shoot as a Christmas gift. I took photos of my friends and school events. I began my passionate pursuit of nature photography with this camera.
In high school, I took a photography class, back before digital was cool. This is the point in my photography journey when I was given my first 35mm SLR camera, a Mamiya NC1000. While other kids my age were spending money on music and clothes, I was spending mine on film and developing. Somewhere in my twenties, the shutter on my Mamiya gave up, forcing me to look for a new camera.
Next in line on the camera journey was the Nikon Pronea 6i APS SLR camera I inherited a friend. Many rolls of film were run through this camera until APS film became hard to find, then I returned to 35mm with a Nikon F75 SLR.
In 2007 I bought my first digital camera, a Kodak Easy Share. It was nothing fancy, but it was digital and easy to use. After a few years of shooting with a digital camera, I wanted an upgrade and had the desire to leave 35mm behind altogether. In 2011 I purchased a Nikon D3000, my first DSLR and the one I'm still shooting with.
I have a fascination with abandoned and nostalgic places and spaces, always pondering the stories as I capture their image. Maybe the fascination stems from all the true ghost tales I've read. Maybe it's from growing up in a state filled with western history. Whatever the root of this fascination, it's deep in my soul.
I also savor the time I spend capturing nature. Nature is a grand subject, with hidden beauty always waiting to be discovered and captured. It's in the sky, the landscapes, the wildlife, the trees, the flowers and the open spaces.
There are times that my photography craving can be satisfied with shots of everyday life. It's captured in the morning cup of coffee, the bare feet in a tide pool, the fur baby napping in a chair, and the meal on our table. My photography focus has always been on the world around me. I've no desire to be a portrait photographer or a wedding photographer. I love shooting candid shots of people enjoying their world.
I may never be a photographer by profession, but I'll always be one by passion.

Very professional, friendly, and reasonably priced. I called A.C Electric and spoke with Jim, He came out and gave me a free estimate and we scheduled the service for a week later. Jim came back a week later and installed 2 GFCI outlets, changed my bathroom lights and fan to a separate switch and ran wire for a new outlet. I would definitely use their services again.

Craig did a fantastic job! I called A.C Electric for emergency service (our main breaker was blown) and they worked us in the SAME day. Craig was very professional and an absolute pleasure to work with – we will definitely use A.C Electric again.
The electricians at A.C Electric are very knowledgeable and professional. We Were having a problem with electricity in house randomly shutting off. Jim came out and diagnosed the problem and had it fixed the same day. During the same visit I had him repair a ceiling fan and a electrical outlet in my bathroom. Both of these services were completed same day. To my amazement his repair bill was a lot lower than my expectation. I will definitely use his services again and would highly recommend him to anyone!
