Lessons and Carols is a favorite Advent or Christmas service that combines the reading of nine scripture lessons from the Old and New Testament with choir anthems and congregational carol singing. St. Peter's is offering the community the opportunity to participate in this traditional service (most famously associated with Kings Chapel, Oxford) on Sunday, December 16 at 5:30. This is a lovely and meaningful way to gain insight into Christian life – and we invite all spiritual sojourners to join in stepping aside from from the commercial frenzy of this season and into a vision of the just, compassionate and healed world that God wants for his creation.
ECW CHRISTMAS FAIR Continues at Oceanside High School Sat. Dec. 1, 9 a.m.-2 p.m.
Saturday, Dec. 1, Members of St. Peter's will have a booth at the Oceanside High School's Holiday Art & Craft Show, featuring MABird Accessories, with proceeds to benefit St. Peter's Episcopal Church. MABird (parishioner Mary Alice Bird) works with recycled sweaters, knits and other textiles to create unique cashmere and mixed knit hats and scarves for men and women. She also uses recycled textiles to make Catnip Mice, Lavender Sachets, and Balsam Holiday Sachets – all are reasonably priced and are make unique handcrafted holiday gift items. MABird was not able to participate in this year's November 17 Fair at St. Peter's; but reserved table space at Oceanside's Fair. So if you missed getting some her items on November 17, you have an opportunity to do so on Dec. 1 – and your purchases will benefit St. Peter's outreach ministries in the Rockland area.
Thanksgiving Community Meal November 22nd. Once again, St. Peter's is hosting and coordinating a Community-wide Thanksgiving Dinner with all the traditional dishes and trimmings.
Join with us to help prepare this meal or to share the dinner with others. Last year, over 400 meals were served. Donations to help support the cost, provide food, or help prepare and serve are needed and welcome. Call the Church Office (594-8191) if you want to volunteer and the Administrative Assistant will put you in touch with the coordinator of the Dinner. You can also check the bulletin board in the parish hall for needs, and sign up as you are able. To make an online donation, use the DONATE button at the top of this page or send your contribution, earmarked Thanksgiving Dinner, to the church office, 11 White St., Rockland, 04841.
On Sunday, July 1st, St. Peter's will again kick off the Independence Day week with a special service of civic readings and American song at the 9:00 a.m. service. Officials from the City of Rockland will be among us as readers and hymns and choir music will highlight our heritage as a nation. This service will also mark the St. Peter's Choir's capstone event for the summer services. They will then be in recess as a choir, but will instead be worshipping in the pews with the congregation. They will return with music for Sunday worship after Labor Day.

034. Scarier than Being Thrown by a Wild Horse
Terry has been working construction and driving trucks for more than thirty years. She has also ridden rogue horses as far back as she can remember, and once broke a thigh bone in four places when she was thrown. When she broke her wrist one weekend five years ago in another horse-riding accident, she didn't want to waste money by going to the emergency room. She wrapped her wrist and waited until Monday to go see a doctor.
He told her that she'd never work again nor ride another wild horse -- if he didn't operate on her wrist right away.
Scared by this prospect, she agreed to the surgery, but explained that she had what is known as a "paradoxical reaction" to any drug that interfered with her mental state. She had been given anesthesia on two prior occasions. In both cases, when she started to come out of it, she woke up swinging and shouting, ripping out IV lines and throwing things. She was very emphatic: no anesthesia. No mood-altering drugs. She asked for a nerve block, injections into her arm to prevent pain signals from reaching her brain. She explained clearly that she wanted to remain conscious and alert during the procedure.
The doctor stopped talking about anesthesia. Terry said, "I thought that was settled, but it turns out that I might as well have been talking to my bedroom wall."
The day of the surgery, she repeated that she did not want any drugs that would alter her mental state. She reports, "The nurse anesthetist said, 'I think I know what's best for you; you're just a truck driver.'" Before she realized what was happening, Terry was knocked out with two different drugs.
After the surgery, Terry recalled, "I woke up screaming and fighting in the recovery room. I was on my feet, in and out of consciousness, throwing things and hitting people. I just went berserk." Terry contrasts her calm state before surgery with her enraged state afterwards. Before the surgery, "It even said on my chart that I was a very pleasant woman in no distress."
For many years after being given drugs which she had insisted she could not have because of her known bad reaction to mind-altering drugs, Terry experienced uncontrollable rage and PTSD (Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder.) "I was crazy, and I felt like I was crazy, and there was nothing I could do. It felt like somebody had short-circuited my head."
She said sadly, "My daughter tells me that her mother left home that day and it took years for me to come back. My daughter was seven years old." In classic "blame the victim" style, Terry was told that she was responsible for the bad experience she had had with the drugs: the anesthesiologist said, "You must have been insane to start with."
In addition to experiencing extreme emotional distress, Terry concluded that the operation itself was a disaster. Screws that the surgeon had put into her wrist hadn't been screwed in all the way, and were rubbing against tendons and nerves. Because of improper use of a tourniquet, her upper arm hurt so severely that she stayed in bed for nearly two weeks, felled by sudden slashing bursts of pain if she moved. Her whole hand became numb as a result of nerve damage. When she removed the bandage for the first time, she discovered that the incision cut clear through the tendons inside her wrist. Terry would never have agreed to the surgery if she had understood the risks and downsides.
The surgeon claimed that the operation had gone "perfectly." Shortly after that, he fired Terry as a patient. Even though she was in severe pain from the protruding screws, Terry was too scared to go to another doctor for a year and a half. Then she found a doctor who agreed to take the screws out without giving her the drugs that had hijacked her mind.
Five years after the original surgery, she has about 30% use of that arm. She notes, "I can work, but I can't climb ladders anymore. I can't hold wrenches. I've pretty much given up riding aggressive horses, because I just can't hold on." She reports, "PTSD is subsiding over time. I can sleep at night now. I still tend to be more irritable, quicker to anger. [But] it is getting better."
The extreme emotional distress she has endured has altered forever how Terry thinks about health care. She will not have a mammogram, a PAP smear, or a colonoscopy, out of fear that one of them will reveal a problem and she will be sent to the hospital. "I don't think I can survive. . . .I totally lost my mind. I just can't face it."
This experience has changed how she lives her life. "I used to love riding hunter/jumper horses. Not a chance now: I might injure myself and have to go to a doctor."
Terry fervently recommends that people carefully read "every single line" on informed consent forms. She advises, "Cross out things. They could refuse to treat you. They said, 'We just won't treat you if you don't allow us to do everything we have written on this sheet.' But that's not the law. You don't have to allow them to do any of this. Read it carefully and don't let them rush you. If you have questions, talk to your surgeon."
She concluded, "You need what they have to offer. But you have to figure out how to get what you want, as opposed to what they want to give you. It's your body."

As I have mentioned previously I was very conscious in writing Newton's Ark to keep the science as real as possible. The most speculative technology I included was probably the micro fusion reactor – a small, highly portable fusion reactor that could power a satellite for decades.
This technology requires us to find a way to build a self-sustaining fusion reaction that produces positive net energy. And then you have to miniaturize it – I'm going to ignore that challenge assuming we can solve the main problem.
This technology has been a decade away for the past sixty years. Will we ever solve this problem? Who knows. It may really be a only decade away, it may be another sixty years away or it may never happen. It's hard to extrapolate from the experience to date. There has been some progress but not enough to be completely confident that the fundamental challenge can be overcome.
It is still an active area of research though. In fact I recently received an assignment to design a biometric security system (iris recognition) for an experimental fusion reactor facility!

I posted recently on keeping the sci fi real in my first novel Newton's Ark.
I just ran across this article about stopping an asteriod specifically debunking the scenario presented in the movie Armageddon of using a nuke to split it in half.
…fiction is all about the make-believe. But good science can make for a more plausible narrative, making it easier to suspend disbelief.

One of the things I set out to do when writing Newton's Ark, was to keep the science part of the science fiction plausible, by basing the technology of the future either on already emerging technologies or at least on plausible projections of current technology trends.
This article on taking control of drones by spoofing GPS signals is a good example.


Last night we watched The Assassination of Jesse James by the Coward Robert Ford. One Rotten Tomatoes reviewer said it was like "watching a book on tape." If that seems like your bag, this is the movie for you. I really enjoyed it, but I don't mind things that take their sweet time. I thought it was lovely and thoughtprovoking.
