STATE v. IOWA DISTRICT COURT FOR SCOTT COUNTY, No. 15-2151 (Iowa 1/20/2017)
LexRoll.com > LexRoll (IA) > Iowa Court Opinions > STATE v. IOWA DISTRICT COURT FOR SCOTT COUNTY, No. 15-2151 (Iowa 1/20/2017)
IN THE SUPREME COURT OF IOWA
Filed January 20, 2017
STATE OF IOWA, Plaintiff
IOWA DISTRICT COURT FOR SCOTT COUNTY, Defendant.
Certiorari to the Iowa District Court for Scott County, Cheryl Traum, Judge.
The State seeks certiorari review of the denial of an order requiring restitution of law enforcement response costs following the defendant's conviction for operating while intoxicated. WRIT ANNULLED.
Counsel:
Thomas J. Miller, Attorney General, Martha E. Trout, Assistant
Attorney General, Michael Walton, County Attorney, and Steve Berger,
Assistant County Attorney, for plaintiff.
Mark C. Smith, State Appellate Defender, and Vidhya K. Reddy,
Assistant Appellate Defender, for defendant.
PER CURIAM.
The State seeks review of the district court's denial of "emergency response" restitution pursuant to Iowa Code section 321J.2(13)(b) in an operating while intoxicated (OWI) case. The same legal issue is presented in State v. District Court, ___ N.W.2d ___ (Iowa 2016), decided today. Our holding in that case is dispositive on the facts presented in this case. Accordingly, we affirm the decision of the district court denying restitution and annul the writ.
Background Facts and Proceedings.
According to the minutes of testimony, Davenport Police Officer
Michael Stegall was on patrol in the early hours of April 7, 2015. Officer Stegall observed a white Ford pickup truck cross the center line of traffic and nearly strike an oncoming vehicle traveling in the opposite direction. The other vehicle was able to swerve out of the truck's path and avoid a head-on collision. Officer Stegall pulled over the truck, at which time he also noticed the truck's license plate light was out.
Officer Stegall approached the pickup truck and identified the driver as Homer Christner. Officer Stegall detected an odor of an alcoholic beverage on Christner's breath and noticed that Christner had bloodshot, watery eyes and slow speech. Officer Stegall asked Christner to step out of the vehicle and perform various field sobriety tests. Christner failed these tests and later submitted to a preliminary breath test. Officer Stegall arrested Christner and transported him to the Scott County Jail. Once at the jail, Officer Stegall read Christner the implied consent advisory and allowed Christner the opportunity to make a phone call. Christner ultimately refused to submit to chemical testing.
Christner later pled guilty to OWI, first offense, in violation of Iowa
Code section 321J.2(2)(a) (2015). Before sentencing, the State submitted a request for "emergency response restitution" on behalf of the Davenport Police Department pursuant to Iowa Code section 321J.2(13)(b). The form requested restitution for the cost of Officer Stegall's time and the time Stegall's squad car was in use in connection with the traffic stop, arrest, and processing of Christner. A hearing on the restitution request was held on the date of sentencing.
At the restitution hearing, Officer Stegall testified that he pulled over Christner's vehicle at approximately 1:06 a.m. due to Christner's "nearly striking [another] car head-on." Stegall acknowledged that Christner did not actually collide with the other vehicle or cause any injuries, but the officer testified that he "absolutely" viewed Christner's conduct as dangerous. Officer Stegall finished dealing with Christner at the jail approximately an hour after the traffic stop. Stegall then completed required paperwork related to the incident. Officer Stegall testified that the emergency response restitution requested by the State covered two hours of the officer's time, at an hourly rate of $61.30, and two hours for the time his squad car was out of service during that time, at an hourly rate of $18.00, for a total of $158.60.[1]
Christner resisted the State's restitution request and argued that "[t]he response by Officer Stegall was not an emergency response." In a written ruling, the district court agreed with Christner and denied the State's claim for restitution. The court characterized the present case as only involving "services provided by a police department in investigating and effecting the routine arrest and processing of a person" for OWI. The court therefore concluded,
[T]he Iowa Legislature did not intend the routine arrest and processing of a Defendant to be subject to an emergency response restitution claim. If the legislature wanted to include nonemergency routine traffic stop activity, it would have said the cost of any response and not add the limiting language of "emergency." The legislature purposefully defined "emergency response" broadly to capture the often unique responses fire, medical, and law enforcement must have to these incidents. Not every emergency involves an accident, although that is typically the case. . . . The broadness of the Iowa definition was merely a way to include those unique, case specific responses that happen even when there is no accident as a result of the violation. It is over reaching to include the routine traffic stop, investigation, and processing in the definition of "emergency response."
The State filed a petition for writ of certiorari with this court. See
Iowa R. App. P. 6.107(1). We granted the petition.
Scope and Standard of Review.
"We review rulings on questions of statutory interpretation for correction of errors at law." State v. Olutunde, 878 N.W.2d 264, 266 (Iowa 2016) (quoting In re R.D., 876 N.W.2d 786, 791 (Iowa 2016)). We also review restitution orders for correction of errors at law. State v. Hagen, 840 N.W.2d 140, 144 (Iowa 2013). "In reviewing a restitution order 'we determine whether the court's findings lack substantial evidentiary support, or whether the court has not properly applied the law.' " Id. (quoting State v. Bonstetter, 637 N.W.2d 161, 165 (Iowa 2001)). III. Disposition.
For the reasons set forth in today's State v. District Court decision, Iowa Code section 321J.2(13)(b) does not authorize recovery of the costs of the routine law enforcement activities involved in this case. See ___ N.W.2d ___. Officer Stegall stopped Christner after he witnessed Christner engage in erratic driving and cross the center line into oncoming traffic. There was no accident or 911 call. As in District Court, we certainly intend no criticism of Officer Stegall's actions in removing Christner from the road. However, this case did not involve an emergency response by the police within the meaning of the statute, and it is not the type of case for which public agency restitution is authorized. Accordingly, we annul the writ.
WRIT ANNULLED.
This opinion shall not be published.
[1] The court also heard testimony from a lieutenant with the Davenport Police Department supporting the department's calculation of hourly rates for its officers and squad cars.

Q: Difference between duplicate check if using Distinct and Group by with aggregate Okay it has been quite some time since I have used SQL Server very intensively for writing queries.
There has to be some gotcha that I am missing.
As per my understanding the following two queries should return the same number of duplicate records
SELECT COUNT(INVNO)
     , INVNO
FROM INVOICE
GROUP BY INVNO
HAVING COUNT(INVNO) > 1
ORDER BY INVNO

SELECT DISTINCT invno
FROM INVOICE
ORDER BY INVNO

There are no null values in INVNO
Where could I be possible going wrong?

A: Those queries will not return same results. First one will only give you INVNO values that have duplicates, second will give all unique INVNO values, even if they appear only once in entire table.

A: the group by query will filter our all the single invoices while the distinct will simply pick one from every invoice. First query is a subset of the second

A: In addition to what Adam said, the GROUP BY will sort the data on the GROUPed columns.

The LFA is Lexus's long awaited first supercar. Six years in the making, and subject to a major rethink mid development, the LFA faces a fair amount of expectation.
Still, the final on-paper stats certainly justify the supercar billing. A bespoke 4.8-litre V10 producing 552bhp and revving to 9000rpm. A transaxle six-speed automated sequential gearbox. Extensive use of carbonfibre reinforced plastic for the chassis construction and body panels. Conventional rear-wheel drive, and no hybrid drive. The LFA also comes with a supercar price tag of 375,000 euros (£343,000).
At first very Lexus like. The styling is pretty out there, but the attention to detail, and production is absolutely first rate. Open the doors, bonnet or boot and you'll find exposed carbonfibre, but carbon that it is so beautifully finished you find yourself starring at it.
Similarly the interior is incredibly well finished, with a mixture of leather, carbon, aluminium and a super high tech TFT screen rev-counter. The best detail though are the pedals which simply exquisite – each one a single piece of forged aluminium. So the typical Lexus virtues of quality and refinement are very much intact in even this, its most extreme model.
That impression doesn't change when you first twist the conventional key and press the steering wheel mounted starter button. The engine flares a little as it catches, but then settles to an idle as smooth and restful as any other Lexus.
Prod the throttle, though, and the LFA hints a character about as far removed from any existing Lexus as you could possibly imagine. The engine revs rise and fall so quickly and with such a sharp timbre that it feels like a pure race engine. While a torque figure of 354 lb ft may look a little weedy next to rivals with larger capacity engines, or forced induction, there is no shortage of straight-line performance.
Lexus's claim of 0-62mph in 3.7sec and a top speed of 202mph feel completely believable. You just need to keep the revs up to get the most from the engine. That's not something you'll mind doing, because from 6000rpm onwards the engine produces one of the best engine notes of any car on sale. It's similar to a V10 BMW M5, but higher pitched and a lot louder; more like a Carrera GT.
It is at this point you look at the cars the people at Lexus (or Toyota) have produced before and start wondering where on earth the LFA has come from. It is so raw, intense and manic.
What's more, the gearbox is no different. Because Lexus wanted the engine to rev with as little inertia as possible, it opted for a single clutch gearbox, which it also believes gives a greater sense of involvement than a double clutch gearbox. In its most extreme mode (there a four maps, and seven shift speeds) it works very well on full throttle upshifts at or near the limiter, and is certainly quick, but at anything less it feels a little too involving. In the less extreme modes, the change is slower and less physical, but still not smooth, and in its slowest mode, can feel like it is slipping the clutch. Overall the gearbox is one of only two things I'm not so sure about the LFA.
The other is the steering, which unusually for a supercar is electrically assisted. While it is super precise, and very quick it takes some getting used to, mostly because it is very light. There is a reasonable flow of information from the wheel, and the movement away from the straight-ahead is progressive, but the LFA does not steer as intuitively as the best sportscars.
Small question mark over the steering aside, the LFA handles brilliantly. With extensive use of carbonfibre the LFA is a) pretty light for a front-engineed supercar at 1480kg, and b) incredibly rigid. And on the road you can feel this lightness and strength in the LFA's willingness to change direction, with minimal roll and zero flex. Like the engine there is very little inertia, combined (on a dry road at least) with masses of lateral grip.
The brakes, which are carbon ceramic are monumentally strong, but also precise.
That is the tricky question. Firstly because Lexus is asking a whooping amount of money for it, and secondly because it will only produce 500 examples.
What is clear though, is that the LFA is packed with technology that has been developed to an incredibly high standard, presumably at astronomical cost to Toyota. And we'd guess that for some individuals, gaining access to such exclusive technology will justify the LFA's price.
What's more impressive though, is that the LFA has a character of its own, rather follow a preset supercar template. That it is more solidly constructed than anything Italian, and less flamboyant, is perhaps to be expected from a Lexus. What's surprising though is how honed and sharp it feels to drive. While it has GT qualities it's no soft-edged GT. Instead it is a serious and credible supercar.
It is interesting how different manufacturers have gone down different paths regarding the transmission. Double-clutch transmissions seem to be de rigueur in this day and age. The fact that Toyota(Lexus - no disrespect) had opted for the single-clutch robotised manual transmission does make me wonder if it will be as good as its contemporaries. Similar transmission found in the BMW M5/M6 are less than convincing (Ferrari has already moved on to double-clutch with the California and the Italia). The LF-A may be designed for the race-track, but there will be question marks on its suitability for everyday use.
Finally, there is the harsh reality to be reckoned with. Who will pay 375,000Euros for a car with no pedigree? I hope I'm terribly wrong, but this looks like the new Toyota 2000GT. A car that will be consigned to the history books very quickly.
That interior is diabolical - the centre of the steering wheel has come right off my IS200, and I don't like the odd shape of the dash, centre console or the weird compartments (ashtrays?) built into the outter edge of the seats?!
The exterior styling doesn't do it for me either - lucky I'm nowhere near wealthy enough to be in thier target demographic!
For £343,000 I'd take a 458, used RS4 and GT3RS for the track!
I'm a very big lexus advocate but they got this so wrong on almost every front!
this car is a joke!
what`s the point of this? more than 6 years for what? it even can not keep up in the Nürburgring, it catch fire!
I can't find a single thing this car does better than the infinitely cheaper Nissan GT-R.
And it looks as if it was built from plastic panels by an amateur in a shed.
The GT-R is a stunning bit of kit, but park the two side by side and see them in the flesh and I think you'll instantly see the difference in finish and purity of engineering.
" ... and I think you`ll instantly see the difference in finish and purity of engineering."
still, I hate the GT-R, but please, oh god!, please, give me all that you can, including the pointless Spec-V!
Maybe the £343k price is explained by the need to throw in 4 cable ties at the last minute to secure the floormats.
[/quote] So it must bring something then?
It looks like a mk4 supra mated with an R8 (check the back end) and had horrendously defromed offspring!
I'd still love a go though.

Navarra seeks to become a reference in medical hemp research
Navarra-based institutions create an association to group and coordinate all the actors that operate with industrial or medicinal hemp in Navara; promote cooperation between companies, research centers and institutions for the growth of the sector; create, consolidate and enhance a sectorial image for all economic and research activity; or facilitate and coordinate sectorial relations at national and international level.
The Government of Navarra approved its incorporation to the Navarra Association for Hemp Research (ANIC), promoted by the Department of Rural Development and Environment and that is going to be constituted soon together with the Public University of Navarra (UPNA), represented by ISFOOD, Institute for Innovation and Sustainable Development of the Food Chain, and IMAB, Institute for Multidisciplinary Research in Applied Biology; Navarrabiomed; the Institute of Agrobiotechnology (CSIC-IdAB); the public companies INTIA and Nasertic; as well as the private company Josenea.
The purpose of ANIC is to obtain and manage, with criteria of equity among the partners and with a territorial vision for Navarra, the relevant licenses or authorizations from the Spanish Agency of Medicines and Medical Devices (AEMPS). Specifically, it intends to do so with the authorization for the cultivation of hemp plants for research purposes; the authorization for the cultivation of these plants for medical and scientific purposes; and, subsequently and on an annual basis, the annual authorization of total surface area and plots for the cultivation of hemp plants.
Among the objectives of ANIC are to group and coordinate all the actors that operate with industrial or medicinal hemp in Navarra; to promote cooperation between companies, research centers and institutions for the growth of the sector; to create, consolidate and promote a sectorial image for all the economic and research activity; or to facilitate and coordinate sectorial relations at a national and international level. Likewise, the entity aims to contribute to the promotion of research and innovation in the industrial and medicinal hemp sector in Navarra, in all the links of the value chain.
In this sense, it will place special emphasis on the development of new varieties of industrial and medicinal hemp and on genetic research; on research into the medical, pharmacological, food, industrial and cosmetic properties of hemp; on research into the medicinal, industrial and commercial applications of its derivatives; on research into the economic potential of industrial and medicinal hemp as an alternative crop for economically disadvantaged areas and/or areas at risk of depopulation.
The first project
In parallel to the steps for the constitution of the association, the members of the association have been working on a first research project that they are finalizing to present to the AEMPS once ANIC is constituted.
This is a variety testing project. It consists of selecting hemp varieties with high CBD content (a non-psychoactive component of hemp) and low THC content (psychoactive component), adapted to the growing conditions of Navarra, based on morphological, physiological, agronomic (phenotypic in general) and genotypic characteristics (using molecular markers that indicate the THC/CBD chemotype ratio of the varieties).
In addition, a second aim is the study and characterization of the derived products for their commercialization by industries of the agri-food sector, such as proteins and lipids of nutritional interest and biocompounds from the selected varieties. The project would be located in the Josenea farm in Lumbier, "which meets the prerequisites set by the AEMPS". That is to say, it is located "in a closed, video-surveilled environment, near a population center and a police or Civil Guard station".

In the aftermath of this week's midterm elections, in which Democrats gained 34 House seats and lost an additional three Senate seats, an odd emotional disconnect took place. Democrats, who had just won control of the House, seemed disappointed in their victory; they had expected a sweeping tsunami to carry them from Arizona across Texas and through Florida. They seemed borderline despondent that their extraordinarily dislike for President Trump hadn't translated into historic gains. Meanwhile, Republicans, who had just surrendered the speakership to Nancy Pelosi, were somewhat giddy; they immediately paid homage to President Trump for his stunning work in preventing Democrats from marking up big wins in Florida and Ohio.
All of this seems somewhat misguided.
The disparate reactions of the two political parties are predicated on a foundational myth about modern American politics: the myth of Barack Obama. According to the Obama Myth, once upon a time, America was divided between red and blue on the basis of right-left politics. Then, along came President Obama, who won two sweeping electoral victories, forging a coalition of intersectional identity groups in emergent demographic groups and utterly reshaping the electoral map in a permanent way.
For Democrats, the Obama Myth leads them to see President Trump's 2016 as an electoral aberration — a momentary spasm of the American public, soon to be corrected. Any indicator that 2016 was more of a trend than an outlier cuts against the Obama Myth.
For Republicans, the Obama Myth leads them to believe in the Trump Myth. The Trump Myth suggests that once upon a time, there was a land dominated by an intersectional coalition set to rule in perpetuity. Then along came Donald Trump, who broke apart the blue wall and set in its place a new movement, populist and deep. This myth portrays President Trump as an electoral magician, a man defying gravity and leading Republicans into uncharted new lands of victory. Its adherents become willing to attribute every victory to Trump and every loss to lack of Trump — a theory Trump actively promotes by slamming Republican politicians who fail to embrace him sufficiently.
But here's the thing: The Obama Myth is a myth, and so is the Trump Myth. The reality is that the electoral aberration was not Trump but Obama. Trump isn't a magician; he's a regression to the electoral mean. Here are the percentages of the vote won by Republican presidential candidates in 2000, 2004, and 2016 in Ohio: 50.0, 50.8, 51.3. Here are those numbers for Florida: 48.9, 52.1, 48.6. For Wisconsin: 47.6, 49.3, 47.2. For Pennsylvania: 46.4, 48.5, 48.2. For Michigan: 46.1, 47.8, 47.3.
Trump didn't significantly overperform in any of these states. He did what Republicans, absent Obama, did in 2004 and 2000.
What, then, was 2016? 2016 was an odd combination of a regression to the Republican mean and Hillary Clinton's incredible incompetence, as well as low Democratic turnout thanks to their belief that she would surely win. That's why we shouldn't be surprised by last night's results. Republicans performed as they've always performed outside of Obama. Democrats performed as they've always performed outside Obama.
So, what lesson should Republicans learn? That political gravity applies to President Trump — and that they've got to reach out to the suburban voters they lost in the midterms. What lesson should Democrats learn? The Republican Party remains competitive in swing states, and running to the hard progressive left while shouting about Trump won't cut it.
Will either party learn those lessons? Probably not. So buckle up. It's going to be a wild two years.

Q: Is there a typical config or property file format and library in Haskell? I need a set of key-value pairs for configuration read in from a file. I tried using show on a Data.Map and it doesn't look at all like what I want. It seems this is something many others might have already done so I'm wondering if there is a standard way to do it and what library to use.

A: The configuration category on Hackage should list all relevant libraries:
http://hackage.haskell.org/packages/#cat:Configuration
I have researched the topic myself now, and my conclusion is:

*

*configurator is very good, but it's currently only for user-edited configurations. The application only reads the configuration and cannot modify it. So it's more for server-side applications.

*tconfig  has a a simple API and looked like it was what I wanted, maybe a bit raw, until I realized it's unmaintained and that some commits which are really important to use the app are applied on github but the hackage package was not updated

Other solutions didn't look like they'd work for me, I didn't like the API, but every application (and tastes) are different.
I think using JSON for instance is not a good solution because at least with Aeson when you add new settings in a new release, the old JSON without the new member from the previous version won't load. Also, i find that solution a bit verbose.
The conclusion of my research is that I wrote my own library, app-settings, which aims to be key-value, read-write, with a as succint and type-safe API as possible. And you'll find it also in the hackage links for the configurations category that I gave.
So to summarize, I think configurator is the standard for read-only configurations (and it's very powerful too, you can split the configuration file with imports for instance). For read-write there are many small libraries, some unmaintained, and no real standard I think.
UPDATE 2018 be sure to look at dhall

A: I'd also suggest just using Text.JSON or one of the yaml libraries available (I prefer JSON myself, but...).

A: The configfile package looks like what you want.

A: *

*Go to hackage.

*Click on "packages"

*Search for "config".

*Notice ConfigFile(TH), EEConfig, and tconfig.

*Read the Haddock documentation

*Select a couple and implement your task.

*Blog about your findings so the rest of us can learn from your new found expertise (thanks!).

EDIT:
I've recently used configurator - which was easy enough.  I suggest you try that one!
(Yes, yes.  If I took my own advice I would have made a blog for you all)


I recently came across Chase's post sharing the LC Planning and Zoning Facebook page. I don't use Facebook much myself and don't have much of a following. So I thought my community letter here would be a better vehicle for sharing my own thoughts.
And those are simple – thank you to the Planning and Zoning department for their transparency and dedication to keeping us as citizens informed. I can't make it to many public meetings these days. Between basketball games and other family commitments, my time is just limited. I'm appreciative of public departments that keep situations like mine in mind when they do their work.
Now if only the other committees and public officials could find ways to be more transparent like this!

Clyde Barrow Biography
Clyde Barrow was part of the crime duo Bonnie and Clyde, Depression-era outlaws whose folk-hero status ended in a storm of bullets when they were fatally shot on 23 May 1934. His criminal career began in 1926, when he was arrested for stealing a car — a rental he hadn't returned on time. He met Bonnie Parker in 1930 in Dallas, and they embarked on a crime spree from Texas and Oklahoma to Missouri and Illinois, robbing small businesses and killing at least 13 people, mostly law officers. Clyde led the so-called Barrow Gang, which included his brother and sister-in-law, Buck and Blanche, and a gunman named William Daniel Jones. It's generally assumed that Clyde did most of the killing, while Bonnie wrote poems and sent letters to newspapers as a loyal partner. They were ambushed near their Louisiana hideout and shot to death by members of a Texas Rangers unit led by retired Ranger Frank Hamer.
While Clyde Barrow was doing a stint in prison in 1932, he chopped off two of his toes, in an effort to be transferred to a different facility. As it turns out, he didn't need to — he was paroled six days later… Clyde Barrow was portrayed on the big screen in 1967 by Warren Beatty, and in a TV mini-series in 2013 by Emile Hirsch.

German architect Andreas Vogler has been chosen alongside product designers 42 Technology and Priestman Goode as finalists in the competition to design a new train carriage.
The three finalists were chosen from a shortlist of ten which included Japan-based practice Nikken Sekkei.
The concept is a flexible-purpose carriage which is achieved through automatic moving seating. The seat enables flexibility of orientation as a seat and a perch, forward and rear facing as well as stowed away.
The design includes a developing seating concept that can flex between peak and off peak periods to offer a standard seat during off peak to a commuter seat in peak hours, which allows firstly greater capacity but also offers an enhanced environment with table, power and connections for working whilst in commuter mode.
AEROLINER 3000 follows the consequent application of light weight thinking into the train world. The development of a combination of many singular elements concerning aerodynamics, locomotion, structure, interactive control systems and even passenger psychology will be orchestrated under the umbrella of a modern design and engineering culture informed by consequent lightweight thinking.
The firms will now receive a share of £2.2 million in funding to develop their ideas.
David Clarke, RSSB director of innovation, said: 'The Tomorrow's Train Design Today Competition produced some very high quality proposals which are targeted at improving the rail sector and help to achieve the goals of the Rail Technology Strategy'.

New ordinations give reason for hope, but need for priests still great

WASHINGTON — It's ordination season and Catholics have reason to be pleased with the numbers of priests who will serve the church well into the future.
In recent years, the numbers of priestly ordinations have given Catholic Church observers reason to believe there is not a global vocations crisis, but they acknowledge there is still a need for more.
"The good news is that the global number of priests stopped declining about five years ago," said Father Paul Sullins, associate professor of sociology at The Catholic University of America in Washington.
Since 2012, the total has been stable at about 415,000 priests worldwide, a number that is the net of new ordinations and retirements or deaths, Father Sullins told Catholic News Service.
"The church now has about the same number of priests that it had in 1970," he said. "The bad news, though it is not really bad news, is that the global population of Catholics has grown dramatically since then, so today we have far fewer priests per Catholic."
Though the global numbers are currently strong and vocations are plentiful in some regions of the world, such as African and Asia, the quantity of priests are not as abundant in other continents, such as in parts of North America, Father Sullins said.
"We are importing priests from areas of the world where young vocations are booming, or at least more prevalent than in the U.S.," he said. "In 2014, almost a third of priests ordained in the U.S. were foreign-born and that does not count foreign-ordained priests who serve in the U.S. on assignment."
Many U.S. dioceses also are faced with a disparity in the number of new priests being ordained and the number who are retiring or leaving ministry, said Father Carl B. Fisette, director of vocations for the Diocese of Providence, Rhode Island.
"We have 18 men in formation at this time (and) over the years when they would be projected to be ordained, we will probably have about 54 priests who will be over the retirement age," Father Fisette told CNS. "So there will be quite a net decrease in the number of priests in active ministry over the next six to eight years."
These kinds of vocations trends are not unique to the New England states, said Providence Bishop Thomas J. Tobin, who said many of his fellow bishops throughout the country are faced with similar circumstances.
"It becomes a real challenge to ensure our parishes have enough priests to serve the people," Bishop Tobin told CNS.
Shrinking numbers of priests also coincide with fewer numbers of Catholics attending Mass, Father Fisette said.
Though he called that fact unfortunate, Father Fisette said it did make it easier to spread the wealth in terms of priests serving Catholics.
"Mass attendance rates nationwide are down," he said. "If you have fewer people going to Mass, you don't need to have as many Masses in each parish."
This allows the diocese to assign priests to multiple parishes, Father Fisette said.
The church also has more than 18,000 permanent deacons today who perform many functions, like homilies, baptisms and marriages, that were reserved to priests in the 1960s, when the church did not have permanent diaconate in place, said Father Sullins, author of "Empty Pews and Empty Altars: A Reconsideration of the Catholic Priest Shortage."
Though growing secularization and parish closings have allowed dioceses to dispense their shrinking numbers of priests with greater ease, Father Sullins argued those cultural trends show there actually is a need for more priests to evangelize through their presence in society.
In its report "The Class of 2016: Survey of Ordinands to the Priesthood," the Georgetown University-based Center for Applied Research in the Apostolate found that 51 percent of the respondents indicated that they were discouraged from considering the priesthood.
The laity can be an invaluable resource in increasing vocations simply by encouraging their sons to consider the priesthood, Father Sullins said.
"Many priests, including Pope Francis, relate that they first felt a call to priesthood from the example, devotion and encouragement of their mother and father," he said. "A mother can consecrate her son to God's service, which doesn't necessarily compel him, but has a powerful influence on his choice of vocation and state of life."
Regardless of the numbers, it's still important to increase vocations, Father Sullins said.
"We need more priests, not because we are in some numeric crisis, but because God is always renewing his church through calling faithful young men to serve as priests," he said. "To pray and work to (strengthen) new priestly vocations is the work of evangelization, in which all of us can contribute to the renewal and proclamation of the faith."

It has become clear to me that some folks get a little freaked out by human vegetarians. I guess they're basically OK with mares eating oats and does eating oats and little lambs eating ivy, but when I ask for no beef on a taco salad it sends them into a downward spiral of fear of the unknown, and they start desperately grasping for the reasons why.
1. I will not change my name to Go Veg and make myself look like a complete fool.
2. If I see you wearing fur, I won't throw paint on you. However, if you see me wearing hemp, please feel free to throw pot at me.
4. I will never offer you yogurt of any kind. Healthy or not, I think it tastes like raw eggs and sour milk. But, if you like it and you eat it in my presence, I will do my best not to visibly cringe or gag.
1. You don't have to apologize for eating meat in my presence. Unless I fart, I won't be apologizing to you for eating my bean burrito.
A. It makes for awkward dinner conversation.
B. You probably don't care. And that's ok. Really.
Now, if you good people will excuse me, I'm off to download "Mairzy Doats." Burl Ives was rockin'.
hey, debbie! i just came across your blog today and i just love it! (…you are NOT a commie!) i agree with your politics, and your general take on life. nice to "meet" you, and keep up the great work!
Thanks, Laura. Nice to meet you, too.
amen, sister fellow crazy veggo.
I think i can live with that. Now let's make a dinner date.
I had a vegetarian friend whose mom would "accidentally" slip some sausage into her little personally prepared quiche. I don't know why so many people have a hard time with people who want to not eat meat. It's your business, I say… it's not like I want you to try to force me to eat Oysters (which I am adamantly opposed to… ick!) So why should I try to force you to eat chicken? I say, Go Veggies! More people should eat more veggies anyway. And twinkies.
Hey, I dig it. I mean, anymore, I'd just as soon eat a Garden burger than a hamburger. And I always eat veggie sausage–I don't like wondering what parts are in there. And that's why you can never go home again.
5. I won't tell you what's in chorizo. I don't know, and I don't care.
4. You won't offer me chicken and be surprised when I point out it's not vegetarian.
I sometimes feel like I should have most of this printed out on little cards to give people when I tell them I'm vegetarian.
If only all vegetarians were like you. I don't know many, but the ones I do ALWAYS stare at me when I eat meat!
Okay, why was it again that you don't eat meat?
Hi Debbie, just read your posting and I'm ok with you being a vegetarian (or vegan as my daughter likes to say).

Smoker Fumes & Fights Back Defending right to light up
NY Daily News ^ | Wednesday, May 22, 2002 | GREG WILSON
Posted on 05/27/2002 5:47:40 PM PDT by ozone1
By GREG WILSON Daily News Brooklyn Bureau Chief
Brooklyn cop Audrey Silk says she is out to arrest the tobacco police — while protecting fellow smokers from unfair taxes and the pariah treatment.
Unabashed smoker and cop Audrey Silk's lobbying group has recently taken on the anti-tobacco movement with a complaint to the IRS. In her off-duty time, Silk, 37, founded Citizens Lobbying Against Smoker Harassment (CLASH) to stick up for folks who light up.
The group recently served a formal complaint to the Internal Revenue Service challenging the tax-exempt status of the New York-based anti-smoking group SmokeFree Educational Services Inc.
Silk says the group is one of many nonprofits that take public money and illegally lobby for their causes.
"As a 501(c)3 charitable organization, they clearly cannot have lobbying as the substantial part of their activities, and that's all they do," Silk said.
Joseph Cherner, founder of SmokeFree Educational Services and a leading tobacco opponent, said in an e-mail from Europe that his group merely wants to promote smoke-free public places and work sites, so people who don't light up don't have to breathe secondhand smoke.
Lobbying Rap Rejected
He denied Silk's charge that his organization lobbies improperly.
"SmokeFree Educational Services is an all-volunteer organization," Cherner said. "There is no paid staff. Like everyone else, I work as a volunteer.
"We spend little or none of our very small budget on lobbying."
IRS spokesman Kevin McKeon would not comment on SmokeFree's activities, but said the law allows some lobbying by charitable organizations, though not much.
"In general, if a substantial part of their activities is lobbying, they could lose their exemption," he said. "There's no set percentage."
Silk received a reply from IRS officials citing the agency's "ongoing program of examining exempt organizations to ensure compliance with the applicable provisions of the internal revenue code.
The information you submitted will be considered in this program."
Smoking Activist Has Had It
But Silk, who says her organization has no ties to the tobacco industry, said Cherner's group is just one of many making life miserable for smokers.
"Adults who choose to smoke have had enough," Silk said.
"It's a daily attack on smokers. Excessive taxation and increased restrictions at the hands of the bullies, the social engineers and the greedy can no longer go unchallenged."
Silk cites as an example a measure passed by the Montgomery, Md., county council that would have allowed residents to be fined for smoking in their homes if fumes spread to a neighbor's residence.
That measure was vetoed by the county executive after a worldwide backlash. But Silk said it shows how far anti-smoking forces are willing to go.
"We're the only class left for people to vent their fury on," Silk said. "It's the same technique used by Goebbels and the Nazis."

Great tactic, go after them in the pocket book, sick the IRS on them for lobbying.

Is this the beginning of the backlash against the No Smoking Nazis?
I have been expecting for a long time to see smokers wake up and fight back. The rules, regulations, and laws prohibiting smoking in almost EVERY public place have been creeping up on us for years and almost without even a whimper from the smokers themselves. The unreasonable taxes and penalites for smoking have been passed while the smokers held their tongues. But, when they finally DO wake up and decide to do something about this mess, it is gonna be hell to pay for the nazis who started it in the first place. Just a matter of time, what goes around comes around.

As a former smoker, I've often looked upon the anti-smoking Nazis with amazement. They have no shame or self-control, and are unabashedly self-righteous in their cause. This "No Smoking on Planet Earth" crusade has got to stop.
The risks and costs of smoking are well known. If an informed adult chooses to smoke, so be it.

I also disagree with smokers who find out they are dying from lung cancer or emphysema suing the tobacco companies for the decision they made to smoke.
So do I, but AFAIK they're not getting anywhere- all of the big money for the extor..., er, litigation has gone to the lawyers and governments.

If I take my car and ram it into a wall at 90 miles an hour, on purpose, how would I be entitled to sue the car maker?
Probably be an urban legend, but several years ago I heard a story about a guy who rolled his car, then sued the manufacturer because there was no warning in the owner's manual about the hazards associated with cornering at high speeds.

Or the allegedly factual lawsuit about the character who bought a new Winnebago-type "motor home" -- you know, one of those 30-foot monsters. This guy supposedly got onto the freeway, set his cruise control, and got out of the driver's seat and went in the back to make a pot of coffee!! Of course, the motor home left the freeway at tne next curve and rolled over...and he sued the manufacturor for not making clear warnings not to leave the driver's seat while the vehicle was in motion!!
The cute part was that he won the lawsuit.
I read this on one of those "craziest lawsuit" (the Rachel prize, or something like that) threads.

Why in the world does somebody smoke then sue?
It's just a matter of time before some slick lawyer figures out how to use the tobacco suits as precedent to sue the makers of candy bars. Overweight people will claim that candy manufacturers took advantage of them and therefore should be made to pay for their greed.
It's not the tobacco that's the problem. The problem is the lawyers and the politicians who are making their careers on the anti-smoking campaign.

The noise has been made - but in comparison to the anti-smokers, you're correct it's just a whimper.
In the little tiny state of Delaware, this guy Cherner and his organization sent out 10,000 post cards about the smoking ban.

Amen! I quit smoking for five years and unfortunately took up the habit again. However, I respect the feelings of others--I would not presume to light up in the home of a non-smoker, have no problem with the no-smoking rules in the workplace. However, when these Nazis start whining about someone smoking in a home 200 yards away, they have gone over the edge.
My bronchial tubes can deal with cigarette smoke a lot easier than they can tolerate someone drenched in cologne. Maybe we should start an initiative against the cosmetic industry!

Voting rights bill passes in House, now moving to Senate
Posted: Dec 6, 2019 / 06:13 PM EST / Updated: Dec 16, 2019 / 06:59 PM EST
WASHINGTON D.C. (NEXSTAR) – "Today is incredibly personal and special to me and my district," Alabama Rep. Terri Sewell (D-AL) said Friday.
Sewell is celebrating the House passing a bill she's been pushing.
"For six years since the Shelby decision – I have been filing this bill," she added.
The Voting Rights Advancement Act is designed to restore key provisions of the Voting Rights Act that Sewell said was gutted by a 2013 Supreme Court decision.
Sewell's bill hopes to restore the Voting Rights Act of 1965 by establishing which states must pre-clear election changes with the Department of Justice.
Sewell and Democrats said it isn't just their bill, that it is for everyone. They say it will put an end to voter suppression.
"H.R. 4 the people," Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-MD) added.
Not all lawmakers were in agreement on the bill. Republicans said it could infringe on states' rights and one member made a last-minute attempt to kill the bill in the final moments.
"The voting rights act is in effect today," Rep. Rodney Davis (R-IL-13) said.
But Rep. Rodney Davis (R-IL) attempt didn't stop the bill from passing in a historic moment on the House floor with civil rights leader Congressman John Lewis calling the vote.
Only one Republican voted with the united Democrats. Everyone else was against the passage.
And the fight for Democrats isn't over. The bill now moves to the Senate where it is expected to face a tough battle.
But Sewell said she believes in her bill.
"We have to get this across the finish line. We have to get it to the president who will sign it," she said.

Bank of America (NYSE: BAC) moved to a fresh 52 week low today. Ahead of earnings scheduled for Tuesday, investors remain squeamish as to the potential loss BofA could reveal. Over the past year, Chief Executive Brian Moynihan has been trying to clean up the bank's home-mortgage mess, booking roughly $30 billion in loan write-downs and settlements. Additionally, analysts are weighing the possibility that BofA may have to raise more capital in order to comply with new global standards to be phased in over several years, starting in 2013. Among the 30 stocks on the Dow Jones Industrial Average, BofA is the second worst performer, over the past 12 months. On June 29th, BofA reported they will lose between $8.6 to $9.1 billion for Q2.

Most entrepreneurs who are searching for subsidizing and are ignorant of the ebb and flow prerequisites and advancements of the money related part, visit their neighborhood bank. This is the manner in which individuals trust an advance is to be acquired, through the bank. Be that as it may, banks are not extremely eager about subsidizing private company, and therefore a radical new industry has sprung up to take care of the demand.
Private loan specialists frequently fill the hole among organizations and banks. There is the simple vast section of independent ventures that are stuck in the center, who don't meet all requirements for bank advances but then require financing. Private moneylenders fill this hole giving a large number of them the much required business trade progress out the USA.
The subsidizing that private banks give is ordinarily known as MCA or shipper loan credits. These sorts of credits are here and now advances that are for a most extreme length of a year. The reimbursement alternatives are simple and adaptable, and entrepreneurs can work with the funder to set the technique that most suits their necessities.
The application procedure to apply for a business loan is basic and snappy, with the private funder by and large requiring fundamental data, and significantly not exactly those of banks. The fundamental data required by private loan specialists to give a MCA are as said here.
4. Reason for the assets i.e. working capital, business development, obtaining stock, buying hardware and so forth.
5. On the off chance that the entrepreneur has different advances and in the event that he or she is in insolvency.
These are a portion of the fundamental kinds of inquiries that an entrepreneur who is applying for a MCA would need to reply. The extraordinary distinction between an application for a MCA and bank credits is the way that banks require point by point data identified with monetary explanations. Private banks essentially require an expansive photo of the ground substances of the business applying for the advance. Dissimilar to banks all choices are not founded on the announcements of the independent company.
While banks and private loan specialists may have an alternate method for taking a gander at things, private moneylenders do take care to guarantee the ground substances of the independent company are as they ought to be. Banks depend vigorously on budgetary proclamations when achieving a decision identified with subsidizing a business.
While it is conceivable that you will be gotten some information about your FICO assessment notwithstanding when you will apply for private financing. The financial assessment isn't a deciding component for a MCA. These credits are unbound advances and accordingly guarantee and security are not required too.
At the point when FICO assessments, guarantee and securities are not keeping down private ventures, the likelihood of getting supported is significantly higher. These are the fundamental powerless regions of most private companies, which hamper their capacity to get subsidized by in expansive. At the point when these feeble territories are expelled from between an entrepreneur and the subsidizing they look for, the procedure turns into a great deal smoother for them.

Yeah!! Brawlers!! Love it bro, jealous I didn't come up with it. I want that cap fer sure.
Efra, i would go with the head on the hat and the main logo as the sleeve patch, the head by itself would work well on a hat.
Good entries in this post. The Brawlers is a funny take, and the design totally fits the name. Very well done!
The Anglers is a very good concept, too. Maybe make the ball a little smaller? Aside from that, solid job!
The 8 ball for the eye on the shark is a nice touch.
Thanks for the feedback guys! Robert- I did have the head only as my initial idea but I felt it needed to tell the story so I added the upper body.
David L. This is the best pool shark entry so far, I would suggest maybe adding some highlights to the sharks skin that and Casey's suggestion will put it over the top!
Revise submitted. I agree that the full body of the brawler is necessary for the story, plus it's dope as f#@k.

Summary:I've used other products before and nothing beats the Dogtra 2500T&B. The best thing about it is that it has the beeper feature. This has been really useful for my dog who is quite the wanderer. I can easily spot him even in heavy foliage. So far, it has been a very wonderful experience using the Dogtra 2500T&B.
Summary:I've had a lot of experience with training dogs and during these years, I have encountered a lot of dog training collar systems. For me, the Dogtra 2500T&B is among the best. It is very rigid and tough. It can withstand very harsh environments. Operating it is very straightforward. Just read through the instructions and you are all set. The instructions are very easy to understand so even first time users will find it easy to use the unit. I've just recently bought another unit as a gift to my nephew and I'm looking forward to giving it to him. I'm sure he and his dog will love using this collar.
Summary:This product has done wonders to my dog. She is a totally different dog now. She is well behaved and very calm. One time, we were caught up in the rain while using the collar but the collar worked perfectly and I didn't encounter any problem after it got wet. The results of our training using the Dogtra have been astounding! I will definitely recommend this product to anyone. This is well worth your time and money. Just follow the instructions carefully to achieve the best results. I am one happy customer!
Summary:I highly recommend this product. If you want to train your dog well then you should buy this product. It is absolutely worth your money. You will not regret buying this product. It is very easy to use and very robust. I've tried using it in both wet and dry settings and so far, we haven't seen any problems with our unit. My dog and I are having so much fun using this collar. I am very happy that I chose this product.
Summary:Since the day I got Murphy, he has been fond of chasing after everything that catches his attention. It was really a nuisance. I just can't seem to control him especially if he sees a bird. He jumps on his feet and follows the bird wherever it goes until he gets tired of it. I bought this collar online with high hopes that I will be able to train my dog. I wasn't disappointed. This collar is very effective. It has completely changed my dog. I only had to teach him for a few sessions and he quickly picked up on everything I taught him. Thanks Dogtra!
