Dingy Drinks of Water

By  |

The city of Chippewa Falls is trying to wade through a water problem, minerals are turning what should be clear into a brown liquid.

In a place where the water's so good they bottle it... There's an H2O-no situation.

Mayor Daniel Hedrington says "Chippewa Falls is known for having the purest water in the world and here we have a brown water problem."

The stuff you can buy by the bottle is fine. But across the aquifer and in a couple of city wells, iron and manganese are making for some facet frustration.

Leo Hamilton says, "it was absolutely like chocolate or coca cola in the bathroom, and the water in toilet."

Hamilton, is a former Chippewa Falls mayor, who this week aired his not dirty, but stained laundry in front of the city council.

Hamilton took his wife's ruined clothing and his complaints to city leaders. He said this load adds to his laundry list of water problems.

Hamilton adds, "we don't drink it don't make coffee with it and can't even wash with it safely, we don't know what to do."

Mayor Hedrington says while they work through the solutions, he wants people to know the water is unsightly, but safe, "it's a combination of manganese and iron in the water turning it brown, no health consequences whatsoever, it's naturally occuring."

For months, the city engineers and consultants have been pouring over solutions, before they act they have to pinpoint where the problem is.

"We want to take corrective action as soon as possible," Hedrington explained.

The mayor says some potential solutions are flushing or filtering the problem wells, perhaps using an additive or worst case, finding a new well. Until then, people like Hamilton will have to keep working around city water, "I just hope they come up with a solution quick."

And the mayor is asking for patience but is ready for it all to be water under the bridge.

Walker's challenger doesn't focus on union rights

By  |

MADISON, Wis. (AP) -- Wisconsin Democrats and their allies who are trying to take out Republican Gov. Scott Walker have invested all their hopes in Mary Burke, a Harvard-educated political newcomer whose father started Trek Bicycle when she was a teenager.

For Democrats and their friends in organized labor, this race is personal. They mean to avenge Walker's evisceration of union power as he builds his resume for a possible presidential run.

But for Burke, the campaign also poses an awkward challenge: She can't talk too stridently about her opponent's most provocative actions for fear of alienating the independent voters who will decide the contest.

That forces Burke to talk about supporting unions, but not to the point of overturning the law that took away nearly all collective bargaining rights for public workers.

Track 3: Women of Color and White Women in Healthy, Equitable Engineering Environments

Go to Track 1

Go to Track 2

Go to Track 4

Keynote Plenary Presentation

  1. Celebrating Difference at the Intersection of Race and Gender in Engineering

    Brenda Allen, Ph.D.

    In our quest to value difference and diversity, we must be willing to explore matters of race and gender. Dr. Brenda Allen will deliver an inspirational and empowering keynote talk on the complex factors related to power, privilege, oppression and resistance that shape our culture and underpin women’s experiences in engineering and STEM. The interactive plenary will explore ways we engage with each other, including micromessages and affirmative interactions, and will focus on finding ways of building healthy, equitable spaces by considering practical guidance, strategies and techniques that support inclusive behaviors at the intersection of race and gender.

  1. Creating Awareness of Inclusive Practices through Grassroots Initiatives

    Lora-Leigh Chrystal, Janice Crow
  2. This workshop will guide participants towards developing personal skills and materials to address unconscious biases that can thwart the best intentions of faculty hiring committees to find and support diverse candidates. Participants will learn new strategies that can foster a more diverse and inclusive departmental culture.

  4. NAMEPA Best Practice Sharing

    Virginia Lynn Booth Womack
  5. The National Association of Multicultural Engineering Program Advocates (NAMEPA, Inc.) will share best practices across five universities: Purdue, Virginia Tech, Penn State, Kansas State, and Arizona State. Focus on under-represented minority student recruitment, transition and retention in engineering will be discussed.

  7. Fixing the Culture Rather than the Women: What Will You Do on Monday Morning?

    Apriel K Hodari, Lily T Ko, Nuria Jaumot-Pascual, Maria (Mia) Ong
  8. In this workshop, we will share findings from our research on successful women of color in engineering and facilitate program participants’ considerations of their own organizational contexts. Come prepared to address the question, “What will you do on Monday morning?” to re-vision engineering culture and engender success for all women.

  10. Building Student Identities for Engineering Success

    Carmen K Sidbury, Angelicque Tucker Blackmon
  11. In this workshop we examine programs that have found innovative ways not only to engage students, providing them access to adults who exercise social persuasion, but also to include participation from the community. These programs and their leaders have developed a holistic approach to preparing and guiding students, particularly young women, through a trajectory leading to the successful pursuit of engineering/other STEM-related pathways.

  13. Society's "Macro-narratives" About Diversity in Engineering: A Critical Dialogue

    Julie P Martin, Walter C Lee, Donna Riley, Shannon K Stefl
  14. This lively conversation will explore “macro-narratives”–that is, stories told by society–about women’s under-representation in engineering and the motivation to increase participation of women and other under-represented groups. We will critically compare these macro-narratives to our own personal “micro-narratives” that fuel our diversity work. Come listen, participate, and learn!

  16. Optimizing Intersectionality: Creating Authentic and Inclusive Spaces of Dialogue

    Nicole Nieto
  17. This workshop focuses on creating spaces for authentic dialogue. Particular attention will be paid to understanding one’s social identities and how these identities impact one’s experiences. Social identities including gender, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation and ability will be examined. Experiential activities for creating more inclusive cultures through dialogue will be utilized.

  19. Imagining Partnership: Women of Color and White Women Thriving Together in Engineering Environments – A World Café

    Joan Buccigrossi
  20. Imagine partnerships between women of color and white women that ensure all thrive in an engineering environment. What would it take? How would we talk to one another? How would we support one another? First we must understand the experiences that each of us is having, as individuals and as part of a group. How are those experiences the same? How are they different? What gets in our way of being true partners to one another across our differences? The World Café provides an exciting, creative and secure environment in which to explore this topic. The Café dialogue will provides ideas for personal and group action planning. A graphic representation of the group’s dialogue will be available to all participants.

  22. ABET Diversity and Inclusion Committee Listening Session

    Kristen P. Constant
  23. This is a listening session/conversation to discuss the role of accreditation, specifically ABET, in developing students who will contribute to an inclusive engineering culture that values and embraces diversity.

Hi-Five Presentations

  1. Creating a Welcoming Environment at National Conferences: The Mathematics Professional Societies' Joint Effort

    Jenna P. Carpenter
  2. Effective strategies are needed to address the issue of sexual harassment at national conferences. The professional mathematics societies are implementing welcoming environment policies for meetings, at the urging of the Joint Committee on Women. This session reviews the history of this effort, as well as challenges encountered and best practices.

  4. Understanding Community Cultural Wealth for Engineering Students of Color

    Elizabeth Litzler, Cate Samuelson
  5. Community cultural wealth is used to understand the success of students of color in engineering. We’ll present an overview of a study that explored types of community cultural wealth enlisted by African American and Latino engineering students, types of capital that contributed to student persistence and distinctions that emerged at the intersection of race and gender..

Showcase Participants

  1. Inclusive Excellence and Excellent Inclusion

    Raymonda Burgman
  2. Is it possible to meet today’s challenges with the methods we used yesterday? This is a salient question on any campus but especially those founded over 100 years ago. Many were not established to educate women. We’d like to share a simple exercise one can undertake to start practicing inclusive excellence.

Curry Bird brings dumplings and bubble tea to 46th and Woodland

Posted on 20 March 2017

After working as a server in Philadelphia for many years, Guo ‘Sunni’ Tang was done. “As a server, you work 12 hours a day and don’t make much money,” she explained. “I want to make more money to improve life for my parents.”

Driven by a goal of supporting her aging parents and the desire to provide a wider selection of food for the University of the Sciences student population and the area surrounding it, Tang decided to open a dumpling and bubble tea spot. Curry Bird, a new Cantonese and Thai takeout restaurant, is at 4604 Woodland Ave. (where New China Gourmet used to be), adjacent to Noah’s Pizza.

The shop had its soft opening on Saturday, where chicken curry and veggie dumplings samples were given away to neighbors at no charge. News spread via word of mouth.

The interior has been completely redesigned with wooden panels and wooden floors. Another thing you’ll notice is that there are no servers, but just a takeout restaurant with minimal seating.

The menu includes some dumpling favorites like Shu Mai, chicken curry and pork soup dumplings. Soups like Tom Yum and Tom Kah make an appearance along with rice and noodle dishes. One particular item that stood out was “Walnut Cream Sauce” style entree. The restaurant is in West Philly, so Tang wanted to make sure the menu to be catered to vegetarians as well, which is why she created a specific section of the menu for those with meatless dietary restrictions. Vegetarian choices range from basil eggplant to baby bok choy with garlic.

Curry Bird is open every day from 11:30 a.m. to 9:30 p.m. (until 10 p.m. on Fridays and Saturdays). In addition to takeout, the restaurant also offers delivery for a minimum of $15 per order. For more information, call (267) 292-4294.

  1. BlackNoire Says:

    First off to clarify for who ever is reading this as a along time member of this neighborhood this restaurant ‘Curry Bird’ is not in West Philadelphia, this restaurant is located in South West Philadelphia. OUR neighborhood is located on the other side of Baltimore Ave 46th and Woodland Ave., which makes it South West Philadelphia. I don’t care how much you try and Gentrify a neighborhood to make it what you want it to be it’s geographical boundaries are South West Philadelphia.

    Now lets talk about this “Restaurant” Curry Bird. Clearly this establishment was not opened for the true residents of this community (and you ALL know who I am talking about). The prices are ridiculous! This is not a sit down restaurant in China Town but a take out Chinese Food Store yes I’m taking it way back to the original Ole G, “Chinese Food Store”.

    Yes the food is Alright not Bad. I purchased the Broccoli, Chicken, With Shrimp. Again it was Alright Not Bad, but the price $18.00! I wanted to ask the man behind the counter if he had lost his mind and if he clearly knew where his establishment was? As apart of the working poor you can not afford to pay $18 for a Broccoli, Chicken and Shrimp Platter unless I’m at a restaurant a True Cantonese/Chinese/Thai Restaurant and I am being served and treated. Not when I am at a corner store establishment…Child Please!
    Dear Owner of Curry Bird, I don’t know if you are trying to appease the ‘College Students’ in the neighborhood and let’s keep it real most of you don’t have money either. Or if you are trying to appease the so called ‘New Residents’ of the community who consider this West Philadelphia instead of what it really is South West Philly.
    Reality Check – Your Prices Are To Expensive!
    In the end when Gentrification rears it’s head it is never for the true people of the neighborhood but it is for those Nomads who like to always pretend they are apart of something until they have what they want and change it into what they need it to be.
    46th St. for 46 years and always keeping it real! Long Live South West Philly!!!
    P.S. If you don’t mind walking and you want a Good Inexpensive “Chinese Food Store” experience go to Lucky’s 4710 Baltimore Ave.

  2. Smoking Joe Says:

    Yes, things were so much better there when the 46th & Woodland gang was selling rocks.

  3. BlackN Says:

    I’m sorry what makes you think drugs aren’t being sold in every neighbourhood across Philadelphia, whether you Gentrify it or not?
    Just because it’s not blatant on the corners of these so called “New and Upcoming Neighbourhoods” does not mean that the drugs still aren’t there.
    The introduction of “Crack” or “Rocks” as you so poetically put it was brought into the Black Communities in the early 1980’s and not Black Communities that were Disfunctional but Black Communities that were Thriving. Working Class, Proud Black Communities such as the Community of 46th and Woodland.
    These drugs were introduced to diminish the Educational System and Info Structure of these Black People so that the Powers That Be could retake what they considered their’s again.
    See my friend when you have Black Communities that are Positioned within Proximity of some of the most Affluential, Oldest Buildings, and Universities and let’s not forget Real Estate in the City of Philadelphia the Two can not Co-habitate together.
    Seeing that you made this statement I can see you. I already know what you are and who you are.
    Those who consider themselves the Power Systems that surround these infrastructures must neutralise them (i.e. Black Communities)
    so that they can continue to control and obtain what they believe rightfully belongs to them.
    This is Statistical Realization. Look around at Every Black Community that is in close proximity (12 -20 minutes) to City Hall a.k.a The Four Corners “North Philadelphia, South Philadelphia, Southwest Philadelphia, West Philadelphia” and you will see every last one of these Beautiful Black Communities has been, have been, or are being gentrified right at this moment, but most importantly the down sizing of these Black Communities began with the introduction of “Rocks”.
    The Gentrification process is patient and takes years when The Ego Of The Powers That Render Control feel that you i.e. Black Communities are a problem and they need and want to Manifest Their Destiny.
    It is amazing to me how eager the Ego is to diminish any traces of the people who lived there by giving it fancy names and saying how they delivered a Neighbourhood and Neighbourhoods from turmoil. Turmoil Created and Manifested by The Ego Of Supremacy’s Righteousness.
    I am reinforced with the sight to see that My Black People, My Black Communities, and My Black Body are slowly being erased and transported from view because We The Black Community Is Deemed Unsightly in today’s so called Modern Cities and New World Order.
    I do not have time to debase the neighbourhood I grew up in seeing that The Chaos and The Detrimental Dynamic that led to “The 46th & Woodland Gang Selling Rocks” was brought about and introduced by the Inferior, Classist, Psychogenetic Powers of Racism and a Capitalistic White Supremacy System.

    Again We All Know What They Are And Who They Are And If You Don’t Know You Better Ask Somebody Who’s Minds Eye Is Open.

    Oneness, Wellness, and Wholeness!

  4. WestBest Says:

    @Blacknoire You may be right about the SW WP borders but I don’t know how many really care. and whether people want to admit it or not gentrification has been mostly a good thing. Mostly I say because there are people hurt by rising rents and property taxes. However as a WP resident I know many long-term residents who benefited from gentrification. There houses bought years ago when the prices were low and the neighborhood troubled. They sell with huge profits and move to retirement communities or suburbs. Renters have been hurt more. But the consensus of my WP neighbor is the it’s a better, safer place to live. BTW, I was born in East Falls projects, grow up in North Philly. I’ll take gentrification any day.

  5. Michael Says:

    Show us the way! I look forward to YOUR new restaurant so I can discover what good food tastes like at “neighborhood” prices.

Houston pension fix highlights Dallas struggles

Pension panic

HOUSTON -- The Dallas police and fire pension system crisis continues to drag down the city’s credit rating and torpedo morale among first responders.

But Dallas isn’t alone. Cities across the United States are struggling with huge financial shortfalls in public employee pension funds.

What does Dallas need to do to fix its problem?

We hit the road seeking answers in Houston, which, like Dallas, has public sector pensions in the hole billions of dollars.

After 10 months of negotiations, the Houston City Council in October did what three prior Houston mayoral administrations had failed to do – announced a compromise.

“It hasn't been easy,” said Houston mayor Sylvester Turner.

Within weeks after taking office a year ago, Turner gathered Houston police, fire and city employee pension board representatives around a table.

They ended up with a deal that lowers Houston’s $7.5 billion pension debts by a third, sets a hard 30-year payoff for what’s left and issues $1 billion in bonds – or city loans – to help with the rest of the shortfall.

As part of the compromise plan, the city of Houston agreed to pay back what it owes the pension system instead of withholding contributions, which it had been doing for years. The city also promised to fully fund its obligation to the funds every year.

Houston pensioners agreed to give up some benefits, such as reducing cost of living adjustments, increase employee payroll contributions and phase out the system’s Deferred Retirement Option Plan, known as DROP, that lets current employees bank retirement benefits while they are still working.

“It's a pay cut,” said Ray Hunt, president of the Houston Police Officers Union. “But it's also something that has to be done in order to make the system solvent.”

He said their members understand that “doing nothing is not an option,” he said. “Doing nothing means the system is going to implode.”

Back in Dallas, the city and pensioners remain at odds.

Police and fire pension system members last month voted down making cuts to their own benefits in order to help preserve the overall fund. Rank and file members are furious with Mayor Mike Rawlings for suing the pension system. The mayor has said he was forced to file the lawsuit to keep the membership from withdrawing too much money, creating a “run on the bank” that could have bankrupted the fund within days instead of years.

“I haven't come in and single handedly said … ‘You aren't going to have any say so,' and 'This is the way its going to be,’” Turner said of his own approach to his city's crisis.

Houston’s pension reform agreement will now have to secure approval of the Texas Legislature, which controls municipal pensions. For Mayor Turner, who spent two decades as a state representative, the statehouse is familiar territory.

“I know that there are some people who are saying ‘yes,’ who are circling to the legislature and quietly saying ‘no,’” he said. “But the good news is, I've been there. I know how it’s played.”

Turner is hesitant to lecture other cities in the same boat, like Dallas. But he did offer this advice:

“Recognize that behind every pension plan is an employee who made a contribution to the city. And employees have to recognize that there is a city with people in it that also have to pay the tab. And so we are all connected. And everyone has to sacrifice for the greater good of the city.”

If Dallas City leaders and its pension board continue to disagree on a fix, lawmakers in Austin have made it clear they are prepared to hand down their own cuts, which almost certainly won't be what either side wants.

Local business donates blankets, supplies to homeless - WFSB 3 Connecticut

Local business donates blankets, supplies to homeless

Posted: Updated:

The recent cold weather is especially dangerous for the more than 4,000 people who are homeless in Nashville.

Earlier this month, a 50-year-old man was found dead in freezing temperatures on the steps of an East Nashville church. Authorities said Jimmy Fulmer had been sleeping on a small, covered porch near a side entrance of Crystal Fountain Church at South 10th and Russell streets, and the freezing temperatures likely contributed to his death.

A man who grew up in that neighborhood has made a donation that he hopes will help many of the community's homeless stay warm.

Gary Benz and his Williamson County company U.S. Imprints delivered 250 carryalls Friday to the Nashville Rescue Mission.

The "Gary-Alls," as he called them, include a pair of gloves, a hat and a fleece-lined, waterproof blanket that will be given to homeless men, women and children.

"It makes me feel good to help people in need. I know those guys are out there and they're struggling, going through tough stuff," Benz said.

Nashville Rescue Mission CEO Glenn Cranfield welcomed the packages, and expressed hope they could help prevent another tragedy.

"Taking care of their needs - just taking care of their basic needs - is just phenomenal," Cranfield said.

Homeless agencies depend a lot on people like Benz, and Mayor Karl Dean said we all need more people like him.

"The Union Mission, which gets no aid at all, does incredible work and the fact Mr. Benz helps out is a wonderful thing," Dean said.

Phillip Radican has been living on the streets for three years. He became homeless after caring for an ailing parent, losing his home in Indiana and falling deeper into bad situations.

"It gets cold out here. Any help from anybody - blankets, hot chocolate," said homeless resident Phillip Radican.

Radican received one of the "Gary-Alls" and said while the blanket isn't a cure for his circumstances, the gift will certainly help him brave the cold nights ahead.

Over the years, Benz has donated more than $8,000 worth of free blankets, hats and gloves for the homeless. The carryalls retail for about $35 apiece, and Benz said he's willing to do more to help the community he loves.

101 Best Written TV Series

Aired: CBS, 1951-1956

Though the show won an Emmy as Best Comedy, the writers were never so honored (in fairness, the Emmy for sitcom writing didn't exist until 1955). The five writers Jess Oppenheimer, the writing team of Madelyn Pugh Davis and Bob Carroll Jr., and later the team of Bob Schiller and Bob Weiskopf churned out 181 episodes. Tom Gilbert, writing in The New York Times after Davis' death in 2011, noted that as the lone "girl writer," Davis had to type up scripts but was also called on to test out some of Lucy's more outlandish stunts (think a chocolate dipping assembly line). Of the relationship between Davis and Lucille Ball, Gilbert wrote: "They were for the purposes at hand the perfect complement to each other."

What Sucks…Keeping Up With The Kardashians

I don’t know whether to be disgusted or impressed with the commitment this one particular Kardashian has to being a whore that would lead her to put on lingerie and pose with her whorish sisters while being 4-5 months pregnant!

Hey Kourtney, give the being a whore thing a break for 5 minutes! Do kids have eyes they can roll back at 23 weeks? Jesus, think of the unborn!

By the way, apparently this show had a “one hour season premiere” the other night. There’s a thirst for a one hour season premiere of “Keeping Up With The Kardashians”? Good god.

Keeping Up With The Kardashians is on Sunday nights @10 on E!

I use to kind of like the show a few years back. They are desperate for storylines now I guess, nothing is off limits to those people. That Khloe is a piece of work alright and I am being kind with that description. It is disgusting how she is constantly berating Lamar just for ratings . If she truly cared about Lamar she wouldn't be badmouthing him in public. If anything she's going to drive Lamar to relapse, he needs to stay away from that whole environment , it is not healthy for him!! I am done with that show and anything about the kardashians !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Analyse the Market

  • Need of Market Analysis

Need of Market Analysis

M arket research is a very important part of initiating a new company and also very important for expanding your already established organisation to unknown realms. Market research is important for you to take the right decisions which will be beneficial for your company. You can only do this if you have an insight into the market you wish to target, scope out your rivals, and your product feasibility in the market and the customers you can reach out to. To be able to run a successful business, you will need to understand your customers.

        Every entrepreneur takes on risks to start something new and make it successful, only a smart entrepreneur understands and formulated market planning based on the results of market research. Some corporations feel that they have an understanding of their customers without even talking to them, doing so not only hampers your chance of your birth in a new market but it also ruins further chances of business expansion. It will be a very expensive mistake indeed. To chalk out a plan for your organisation to thrive anywhere, you will need to analyse the terrain and this is where market research comes in.

2012: Breaking records

Back to overview

As Wings for Life turns 10, we take a look back at what has happened over the years. Today our retrospective takes us to the Year 2012.

The first European Neurotrauma School for Young Researchers
... was a communal project between Wings for Life and the British foundation ISRT and took place in London. PhD students as well as experienced researchers spent a week together discussing and looking at possible new solutions at finding a cure for spinal cord injury.

More pre-clinical studies
... showed that when treatment with the drug Minocycline is administered early enough to patients with spinal cord injury less tissue damage (secondary damage) occurs. The result is that the patients are able to preserve many more functions that would otherwise have been lost.

The start of the clinical trail
... using Schwann cells took place in the USA. The Miami Project to Cure Paralysis received FDA approval for a phase I trial in which the safety of transplantation of Schwann cells for the treatment of spinal cord injury (safety study) was to be determined and tested. Schwann cells form the myelin sheath of the peripheral nerves, promote the re-growth of peripheral nerve fibers after injury, allowing them to be used therapeutically in spinal cord injury.

An Imaging workshop
... was organized by Jan Schwab at the 51st ISCoS conference. The workshop’s main topic was imaging techniques in the field of spinal cord research. To date, there is a lack of non-invasive imaging techniques to make nerve fiber growth visible. Therefore, the success of a therapy can only be measured on the basis of functional changes (e.g. muscle strength). It is necessary therefore, for a change to take place allowing clinical trials to be evaluated in a correct and accurate way.

The fundraising event “Faces for Charity”
... by Red Bull Racing after its success in 2007 took place a second time and raised 1 Million Euros for spinal cord research.

Due to the worldwide attention
... Wings for Life received grant applications also from remote countries. Processing 144 applications was a logistical and time consuming challenge as each application has to be firstly appraised by at least two impartial and independent reviewers.

The single highest donation
... of 100.000 Euro delights our new finance manager.

At the 7. Kini Fullgas Day
...  80.000 Euro were donated by guests.

The preparations
... for the Wings for Life World Run began.

"My biggest barrier is my ventilator"

Back to overview

Matt King was injured in a rugby accident in 2004 aged only 17. Matt's accident resulted in a C2 complete spinal cord injury, leaving him tetraplegic and completely reliant on a ventilator to breathe. Matt shared his story with us…

Please share with us how you sustained your spinal cord injury?
I was playing in my first game for the Broncos under-18 academy, it was my first paid game, and we were away in Halifax. 20 seconds into the match I went in for a tackle, as I had done thousands of times before, and I immediately knew something had gone wrong. Then the reality of what had happened hit home. I knew I'd broken my neck.

What was your first thought after the accident?
I wouldn't wish the thoughts that flashed through my head on the pitch on anyone. I was a 17-year-old boy with my whole life ahead of me and I was faced with a life in a wheelchair at best. The last thought I remember before falling unconscious was asking the paramedics to let me die.

How has your life changed since your injury?
Before my accident, my life revolved around sport, part-time work and girls. I'd always thought my career would be something active and I'd gone through the application process for the Royal Air Force. When I was in hospital, I had some long, long dark hours where I'd wake up in the night and think 'what am I going to do with my life?' It became clear that if I wanted to have a decent quality of life, I had to go back to school, complete my A-levels and go to university.

After completing his A-levels, Matt went on to study law at the University of Hertfordshire and graduated in 2009 with first-class honours. He now works as a trainee solicitor for a London firm. He chose law because "to put it bluntly, all you need is a good brain. Failure wasn't an option."

Which are the biggest barriers in your everyday life?
I would say my biggest barrier is my ventilator – that’s my number one. Not being able the breathe on your own is major and it needs constant management. Other than that, there are very few things which hold me back. You just need to think about the problems and overcome the obstacles.

What are the most positive aspects in your life?
Well now that I’m back leading a relatively normal life, I’m just pleased that I’m making a contribution to society. As well as my job as a trainee solicitor, I work alongside a lot of fantastic charities. I’m not just sitting back in my chair all day. I go out on a day-to-day basis, see my friends and do all the normal things a 26-year old should be doing.

What are your dreams for the future?
Short term my dream is to take part in the London Marathon next year – but I’m working on that one as it’s not simple. Longer term, it’s to continue living the same fulfilling life I do know. Making the best of everyday you know? It’s cliché but it’s true

What are your hopes for spinal cord injury research?
If I could choose for me, I’d like research to help me get rid of my ventilator. High level tetraplegics often hope to have only paraplegia side effects. Those with paraplegia often hope to walk. The bottom line is I hope there will be a cure for paralysis.

Thank you Matt.

If you have sustained a spinal cord injury after an accident and are interested in sharing your personal story, just send a short and informal message to We would be very pleased to hear from you.

Run in the Dark 2014

Back to overview

As darkness set on the mid November evening thousands gathered to help support Mark Pollock in his mission to find a cure for paralysis.

The after-hours event, took place in Dublin, Cork, Belfast, London and Manchester – while pop-ups were organised in many locations. With a choice of a 5km or 10km route participants put on their flashing bands and set out to make a difference.

First established four years ago, the run celebrated its most successful year to date. More than 1,500 people ran in the UK, and over 15,000 globally.

The founder of the run, Mark Pollock is a Wings for Life Ambassador. Unbroken by blindness in 1998, Mark suffered a catastrophic spinal cord injury in 2010 that left him paralysed. Previous to the accident Mark had competed in ultra-endurance races and won silver and bronze medals for rowing at the Commonwealth Games.

As the adventure athlete lay in hospital, blind and paralysed, his supporters knew he would meet this new challenge head on.  To fund his ambition to walk again, the Mark Pollock Trust was created and Mark is now using his spinal cord injury to explore frontiers again using his own body as a research subject and his public profile to initiate collaborations across the world.

After the event Mark said,

“A global community of people came together on 12th November to Run in the Dark. With their support we are pursuing our mission to find and connect physiologists, technologists and scientists to fast track a cure for paralysis. Over 15,000 people ran in over 40 cities worldwide and we want to say thank you for being part of this adventure.”

Run in the Dark will directly benefit the Mark Pollock Trust alongside partner Wings for Life.

The Mark Pollock Trust have kindly agreed to donate £1 of every entry fee to Wings for Life. The money raised will be spent on cutting-edge research projects aimed at accelerating progress towards a cure for spinal cord injury.

Emma Harris, Head of Wings for Life UK said

“Mark and his story are an inspiration to many and we are thrilled to have him as one of our Ambassadors. We love being involved with the event as it’s a great way of working together to help achieve our goals. Our partnership with the Mark Pollock Trust is very important to us so it‘s great to see the building success of Run in the Dark “

Krakatau Steel result, miss the target!

PT Krakatau Steel Tbk (KRAS), Indonesia's largest steel maker, today reported a 114.83% jump in net income last year despite a 12.12% drop in net revenue.
In an official financial statement published today, KRAS booked Rp1.06 trillion net income last year from Rp494.67 billion in the previous year.
Income from operations skyrocketed 3,727.79% to Rp992.93 billion from Rp25.94 billion, sending a steep operating margin to 6.68% from 0.15%. Gross profit increased 87.39% to Rp2.23 trillion from Rp1.19 trillion.
KRAS's net sales dropped 12.12% to Rp14.86 trillion from Rp16.91 trillion, while the state-owned steel manufacturer narrowed its cost of goods revenue 19.77% to Rp12.62 trillion from Rp15.73 trillion. Without succeeding to drag down the cost, the company may be difficult to make a hefty growth last year.
Did Krakatau Steel make good and disappointed performance last year?
Below the target
During the first 9 months ended September 30 2010, Krakatau Steel booked Rp11.88 trillion revenue and Rp1.05 trillion net profit. Considering to the third quarter result, the company only booked additional revenue and net income of Rp2.98 trillion and Rp12 billion respectively in Q4 2010. The question is why Krakatau Steel only posted Rp12 billion net income in the last quarter?
Krakatau Steel's 2010 performance is also below the target set by its IPO underwriter PT Mandiri Sekuritas.
Based on the research, Mandiri Sekuritas estimated that Krakatau Steel could post Rp17.69 trillion revenue and Rp1.37 trillion by the end of 2010. It means the state-owned steel producer needs to add Rp5.81 trillion additional revenue to meet the target, which is impossible.
Krakatau Steel also needs Rp320 billion additional net profit to reach Rp1.37 trillion target this year. It is impossible for the company could fulfill the target.
Mandiri Sekuritas estimates that Krakatau Steel could post Rp25.22 trillion revenue and Rp1.38 trillion net profit in 2011. The company needs strong efforts to lift up its consolidated revenue by 42.56% to fulfill the target. Is it possible? I have written a story of KRAS which is impossible to meet the target on November 7 2010. Please login to read a full version of Watch Krakatau Steel 3Q net profit (1)!

Vital View - Championship, 17th April 2017

Vital View - Championship, 17th April 2017

The Championship season continued with the latest round of games played on Easter Monday.

Brighton secured promotion to the Premier League - virtually the title too - with a win as Newcastle lost.

Defeat against Wolves saw Leeds drop out of the top-six with Fulham moving above them, into sixth.

Wigan remain second-bottom and five points from safety but Blackburn, 22nd, moved to within a point of Nottingham Forest.

Here's a round-up of the Championship action from the other games played, with some still to take place.

Monday 17th April 2017 - CHAMPIONSHIP
Fulham 3-1 Aston Villa 14:45
Barnsley 1-1 Brentford 15:00
Birmingham City 0-2 Burton Albion 15:00
Blackburn Rovers 1-1 Bristol City 15:00
Brighton & Hove Albion 2-1 Wigan Athletic 15:00
Cardiff City 1-0 Nottingham Forest 15:00
Ipswich Town 3-1 Newcastle United 15:00
Leeds United 0-1 Wolverhampton Wanderers 15:00
Preston North End 1-3 Norwich City 15:00
Queens Park Rangers 1-2 Sheffield Wednesday 15:00
Reading 2-1 Rotherham United 15:00
Derby County 1-1 Huddersfield Town 17:00

Fulham made the most of playing against Aston Villa's 10 men for the best part of 70 minutes when running out 3-1 winners at Craven Cottage. Victory for the Whites - Villa's second successive defeat - took them above Leeds into sixth and a play-off place.

If Barnsley had held onto their lead they would have moved level on points with Brentford, 11th. The Bees themselves would have moved above Derby into ninth had they claimed all three points at Oakwell.

Birmingham dropped below Burton, 19th, and closer to the relegation zone when the Blues were beaten 2-0 at St Andrew's - Gianfranco Zola's resignation was confirmed after this defeat. The Brewers' win took them four points above the bottom-three, a point better off than their hosts.

Relegation rivals Blackburn and Bristol City played out a 1-1 draw at Ewood Park. Rovers' equaliser means they are a point off getting out of the relegation zone whereas the Robins remain four points above the bottom-three, extending the unbeaten run to three.

Brighton returned to the topflight for the first time in 34 years after a 2-1 win over Wigan. Albion are a win off being confirmed champions too. The Latics' first defeat in three keeps them five points from safety with three to play.

A Cardiff win over Nottingham Forest keeps the Bluebirds in with a chance of finishing in the top-10. Forest, 21st, on the other hand are now just a point and a place above the relegation zone.

Ipswich inflicted a 3-1 defeat on Newcastle, which made it two defeats in three for the Magpies - now seven points off leaders (and confirmed as being promoted) Brighton after just a two wins in the last eight. However, they hold a six point lead over Reading, third, and seven on Huddersfield, fourth.

A third defeat in five saw Leeds drop out of the top-six, replaced by Fulham. Wolves 1-0 victory at Elland Road was a sixth in eight but a first in three after previous successive defeats.

Preston and Norwich both saw their unlikely play-off hopes ended. The Canaries, despite this 3-1 win at Deepdale, moved above North End, 10th, into eighth.

A fifth successive QPR defeat was suffered as Sheffield Wednesday retained their top-six position, moving up to fifth, after this 2-1 win at Loftus Road - the Owls hold a two point advantage over Leeds, sixth.

Reading came from behind to beat already relegated Rotherham 2-1 at the Madejski Stadium, denying the Millers a rare win. The Royals, third, are now six points behind second-placed Newcastle but with only three to play it's unlikely they'll be able to secure an automatic promotion spot.

Derby equalised two minutes from time at the iPro Stadium to deny Huddersfield a win that could have closed them to within five points of Newcastle, second, with a game in hand too. Town are nearly secured in the play-offs as they're now five points clear of Leeds, seventh.

Who was the MotM? That's what the latest poll is asking so do cast a vote.

Did a starter, or someone from the bench, offer the most?

Select the name you want from the list in the poll to your right. We're also looking for some thoughts and views on the game so do share some with a comment or two below.

Livepeer - New York/Remote

7 months ago

Livepeer is building the world's first decentralized live video streaming network on the blockchain. Livepeer users will be able to sell their spare CPU cycles to stream live video for the Livepeer network, or use the Livepeer network to broadcast their own video. Livepeer's protocol creates a crypto-economically secure incentive structure that allows anyone to participate in the network. Similar to Bitcoin enabling anyone to become a miner to earn a block reward, Livepeer enables anyone to become a transcoder to earn a fee in processing video.

Many video products can be built on top of Livepeer. For example: decentralized social streaming platform (decentralized Facebook Live or Twitch), pay-as-you-go video broadcast platform, or uncensorable live journalism. Livepeer can also be used as a cheaper and more scalable alternative to existing, centralized live video solutions.

We are a team of seasoned technologists working on a project that has the potential to touch millions of people. The company is based in New York, and we have a distributed team contributing to the project from different locations. The technologies we use include golang, javascript, open source video tools like ffmpeg, and smart contract platforms like Ethereum.

Job Description

Part of Livepeer’s mission is to give everyone on the web an equal voice. We are building an important and missing piece of the decentralized development (web3) stack, which will enable live video streaming in a completely decentralized context.

You will be working closely with a small team of talented engineers to bring our first product to market. The technical problems in the early days will be around scalable peer-to-peer infrastructure, live video streaming with different standards, crypto protocol design, smart contract development, and video application and product development. You will be working in an open source style workflow, contributing to the project in the open and interacting with our community in real-time.

Candidates for this position should have a solid background in live video streaming and a good understanding of peer-to-peer networking. Previous experience in open source development and a strong interest in crypto / decentralization is a plus.

  • Experience working with video formats like RTMP, HLS, DASH
  • Experience working with video codecs like H264 and VP8/9
  • Experience building live video streaming software solutions
  • Practical understanding of peer-to-peer networks (protocols over WebRTC, RCP/UDP sockets, Bittorrent)
    Practical understanding of security practices and encryption
  • A background in computer science or representative work experience

Nice to have

Lifestyle Makeover

See how we help our lifestyle makeover challenger create some small changes to her daily life to help her reach her health goals.

I also encouraged her to increase daily activity. Our metabolic rate increases during and after activity. So, if your life is sedentary, your metabolic rate will be sluggish. I challenged her to find a few areas where she could increase daily activity such as taking the stairs, parking further away, or carrying her groceries to the car instead of using a cart.

Obstacle: Michelle has a two-year-old boy and a new career as a realtor. She is often stressed about her job and tackling the day to day life of balancing career with family. She often can't "turn off the racing thoughts" at night and has trouble getting to sleep.
Solution: Michelle noticed that she falls asleep quickly on the nights that she goes to singing rehearsal in a group she is involved with. We discussed some other ways for her to incorporate some stress management tools on the other nights. This is exploration time to see what works for her. We discussed journaling as one option to get her thoughts down on paper instead of racing in her head.

Obstacle: Very little time between work and parenting, she does not have long periods of time to herself. We discussed things that make her feel great and help her to bounce back. For her driving, hot showers, and exercise help her to feel refreshed.
Solution: To be present in the moment (avoid thinking about work, and her "to do list") and allow her mind to rest while driving, taking a shower, and during exercise to help her reconnect and become refreshed.

Breaking down the Steps

  • Keep refrigerator, pantry, and freezer stocked with healthy convenience foods (dried fruit, frozen vegetables, frozen low fat/low sodium entrees like Trader Joes Chicken Fajitas, pre-washed mixed greens, packaged salmon) so you always have a meal choice when things get too busy.
  • Balance your blood sugar throughout the day by eating whole grains, lean protein, and healthy fats with your meals.
  • Start exercising 2-3 days a week at the same time each day to begin building a habit so it feels like part of your routine.
  • Increase daily activity by taking the stairs, walking more, carrying groceries to the car, etc.
  • Journal at night before bed to help decompress any thoughts that are racing in your head.
  • Take small rejuvenation breaks during the day and be present instead of letting your mind race.

Lifestyle Makeover
Look at the following health categories and come up with some small action steps you can commit to in each category even when life gets busy. You may have one or more. Make sure it is something that is easy to incorporate even during the busiest of times.

  • Climbing In Georgia Travel Recreation - Georgia

    price: contact company for price

    Georgia is a country of mountains over 4000-5000m in height - an ideal

    place for climbers. The relatively easy ascent of Mt. Kazbegi, the more

    challenging Mt. Ushba and many others are on offer to mountain-

    lovers.All climbs are accompanied by an experienced mountain team to

    ensure your safety.

    For some mountaineers, especially for those who mostly climbed in the European Alps, the Caucasus is a safe haven to escape the overcrowded peaks in the Alps. The Caucasus is able to seduce mountaineers from all over the world by offering a vast variety of easy and also very difficult ascents up to Russian Grade 6A. Climbing in the Caucasus is a scenario you won’t find so often in the Alps. Climbing on a beautiful mountain wall and no other party in sight.

    The mountain range is located in four countries (Armenia, Azerbaijan, Georgia and Russia) that makes the Caucasus an international mountain range.

    It is over 1100 km long and reaches from the Black Sea to the Caspian Sea and is said to be one part of the border between Europe and Asia. The Caucasus has a great variety of flora and also fauna. 17 typs of mountain plants are only found in the Caucasus. Lucky mountaineers can still glimpse a look or two at a wild mountain bear. Basically geographers divide the Caucasus into 'Greater Caucasus' and 'Lesser (or Minor) Caucasus'. The Greater Caucasus, as the name already suggests, is the major range which reaches from the Black to the Caspian sea. In some places it's over 160km broad and is divided into several minor mountain ranges. The 'high Alpine Caucasus' which, for mountaineers, is the most interesting part of the range is located south of the Black Sea Caucasus. With peaks like Elbrus, Shchara or Kazbek and many other peaks over 5000m the highest elevations are found here.

Dr. Judith Reisman, Professor of Molecular Pornology

You may remember Dr. Judith Reisman, discoverer of the "eroto-toxin," the poisonous brain chemical created by French postcards and nudist camp magazines:  “Pornography triggers a myriad of endogenous, internal, natural drugs that mimic the ‘high’ from a street drug. Addiction to pornography is addiction to what I dub erototoxins – mind altering drugs produced by the viewer’s own brain”  Dr. Reisman achieved her breakthrough despite a scandalous lack of support from the medical community, which was probably just jealous of her Ph.D in communications.
Close your legs, Dearie, or I'll get a trowel and Spackle over that hole myself.

In addition to inventing neurotransmitters and playing one of the Baldwin Sisters on The Waltons, Dr. Reisman is also an accomplished statistician:
[H]omosexual "recruitment is loud; it is clear; it is everywhere." She estimated the homosexual population at the time to be 1-2% but predicted at least 20% (and possibly over 30%) "of the young population will be moving into homosexual activity" as a result of recruitment.
That's a hell of an ROI, homos -- and in a slow economy, too!  Nice job.  But it's not queer pyramid schemes that presently concern the Doctor.  Nope, this week it's good old fashioned slut shaming.
Prosecute 'Planned Promescuity'!
Will the U.S. Senate finally do right and defund the Planned Promiscuity sect commonly known as "Planned Parenthood"? After defunding, let us finally see prosecution of this allegedly "scientific" sex cult – a cult that credentials itself.
Where does this cult get off doing mad science and tampering in God's domain, without first obtaining an advanced degree in Speech and Drama?
For decades, Planned Parenthood leaders made millions by killing unborn babies, even doing so to cover up the rape of children. Now gutsy young pro-lifers have proven PP commonly aids in child sex trafficking.
You'd think the Justice Department would have raided the joint by now.  But law enforcement in this country is corrupt, as witnessed by the fact that Sheriff Bridges never arrested the Baldwin Sisters for distilling their "recipe."
My new book, "Sexual Sabotage," addresses this issue in detail, but below I'll just note how Planned Parenthood has suborned child prostitution since 1974.
What does that mean?  Well, I'm sorry, but you'll have to read Judith's book to find out.  Stopping a 37-year old child prostitution ring is important, sure, but a lady's gotta cover her nut.
Right now, note that the Planned Parenthood website commends Al Kinsey as its human sexuality expert while hiding his team's documented history of brutal child sex atrocities.
Judith over-promises a teensy bit here, as the link just goes to a page of basic information on sexual orientation, which includes an explanation of the Kinsey Scale ("Alfred Kinsey developed the Kinsey scale as a way of describing a person’s sexual orientation").  Or maybe she feels that "brutal child sex atrocities" include "admitting that homosexuality exists."

And anyway, what does Kinsey have to do with funding Planned Parenthood for Fiscal 2011?  Well...nothing, really, but Kinsey's corpse has had a long, intimate, and involuntary relationship with Dr. Reisman:
Allegations against Alfred Kinsey and his research on children's sexual responses, as reported in Sexual Behavior in the Human Male, were first made in 1981 by Dr. Judith Reisman. She subsequently enlarged on these ideas in a book written jointly with Edward Eichel and published in 1990 (Kinsey, Sex, and Fraud). When The Kinsey Institute responded, Reisman filed suit in 1991 against The Kinsey Institute, then director June Reinisch, and Indiana University, alleging defamation of character and slander. In September 1993, Reisman's lawyer withdrew from the case, and in June 1994 the court dismissed Reisman's case with prejudice (which means that Reisman is prohibited from refiling the suit).
Oh, I'm sorry -- Dr. Reisman does point out the connection between Planned Parenthood and Dr. Kinsey:
These are the lies that opened our schoolrooms to Planned Parenthood sex-ed "teachers." Kinsey's unquestioned "data" were gleaned from children he and his team violated around the clock for the screams Kinsey called "orgasms." His youngest victim here is 5 months old.

You see above Kinsey's written confessions as a sexual psychopath, a sado-masochistic pedophile, a bi/homosexual pornography addict. Yet Kinsey's Planned Parenthood and similar sheep have crafted and directed sex education and the human sexuality curriculum for much of the Western world for over six decades.
So I hope you trollops think about those round-the-clock infant orgasms the next time you're getting your mani-pedi-pap smears, or whatever sinful decadence you indulge in when you treat yourself to a trip to Planned Parenthood.
Still, Planned Parenthood quotes all of Kinsey's research as viable "data" taught to teachers, students, judges, mental-health professionals and lawmakers worldwide. Kinsey's Planned Parenthood cultists were charged with carrying out illegal, late-term abortions by Kansas Attorney General Phill Kline, many to hide the rapes of minor girls. For trying to protect children, Kline was charged with violating the Kansas Rules of Professional Conduct.
Well, he certainly sounds trustworthy, as charges of professional ethics violations always inspire confidence.  Still, they're just charges, and I'm not going to cosign that car loan for him unless he proves to me that he's reliable enough to get disbarred.
Kline's lawyers might prove Planned Parenthood's "scientific" lies by screening its guru's Table 34 before the Kansas Supremes, then quoting Planned Parenthood's current "Sexual Orientation at a Glance."
I certainly hope Kline's attorneys employ this strategy of impeaching Planned Parenthood by mentioning they mention homosexuality.  Because their client hasn't exactly been a bumper crop of help so far:
In 2010 the Kansas Supreme Court Disciplinary Administrator brought formal professional ethics charges against Kline before the Kansas Supreme Court based on perjury, an illegal file transfer, misleading legal guidance that Kline had provided to the Grand Jury in the Johnson County clinic case...Kline's ethics trial began on February 21, 2011. In his testimony, Kline claimed that he had the right to deceive state agencies to gain information in abortion investigations and that he had no duty to promptly notify a trial judge that he had provided flawed information.
But Planned Parenthood's greatest crime of all, is that by existing, they've forced the religious right to spend time and money persecuting them.
Planned Parenthood's criminally deviant sexuality programs have drained the time, talent and treasure of conservative religious organizations for decades.
This is a similar to the burden born by members of the KKK, back in the Klan's heydey.  Most night riders would probably have preferred to relax at home, but the presence of uppity Negroes on Earth obliged them to gallop around in a homespun burnoose made from the wife's best sheets, and risking a rash from constant exposure to a combination of sweat, laundry starch, and Florida Water eau de cologne.
Planned Parenthood quotes "expert" Alfred Kinsey to prove all forms of "sexual orientation" are "perfectly normal," while "homophobia" causes suicide and violent crimes, etc.
And wife-beating can produce fatigue, muscle soreness, and rotator cuff tears in middle aged men, but you rarely hear the wives apologize for causing these injuries, even when they haven't had their jaws broken.
Standing on Kinsey's "work," Planned Parenthood claims "Coming Out" is legitimate, and sexual orientation is naturally fluid, while dodging the role played by sexual abuse, fatherlessness and/or its own deceitful propaganda in precipitating bi/homosexuality.
Given that our economy, if not our entire society, is based on deceitful propaganda, it's amazing that there's a single straight guy left in this country (and explains why Charlie Sheen has to pull double shifts, taking on an extra goddess just because one of you gullible Gus's swallowed the PP phallophile propaganda!
So, I say, lets get into the courtroom with evidence of Planned Parenthood's history of defrauding the state via decades of crimes against children.
And get another case dismissed with prejudice!
And, let the games begin!
 I'm still not entirely clear on the process by which family planning brochures turn dudes into sword-swallowers and chicks into clam-diggers, but then I never studied the life sciences.  Neither did Dr. Reisman, but at least she's got an advanced degree from the inHumanities.

Maybe not child porn, but as a boy I did learn most of what I know about sex from the cartoons in Playboy. A few of them took me years to understand, and those were the funniest...although I'm still a little bit traumatized by the horny old lady with the saggy breasts. Did she have a name?

Scott said...

The character was called "Granny," and was the work of African-American cartoonish Robert "Buck" Brown (probably NSFW).

I have to deduct points from her essay because she didn't mention Margaret Sanger or eugenics. Talk about a fail!

"Dr." Reisman has that Church Lady thing down pat, doesn't she.

D. Sidhe said...

I don't want to be an asshole or anything, but if we as a nation can't prosecute a child rape without making some ten year old give birth to her own sister, it's because we're just fucking not trying. Which, for the record, we're not. Because, you know, she was probably asking for it anyway, and it's not a real crime, anyway, like someone stealing things from you or something.

As to Lila fucking Rose, the only crime that should have been prosecuted there was the admitted sexual trafficking by Lila and her pals. It ought to at least be investigated. Instead, what we learned was that if Planned Parenthood reports they have pimps coming in looking to secure medical care for underage whores, that nobody will do anything about it. Awesome incentive to report, isn't it.

I'd go on my rant about how this is all apparently predicated on the notion that underage whores don't deserve to have their STDs cured or their injuries treated or to be allowed anywhere near a doctor who might actually be able to help them in any way, but I think we all know that's EXACTLY how these motherfuckers feel.

Christ, I hate these people. This is all just as fucking cynical as the "post abortion trauma" people. Let's ignore these icky women and their ladypart problems until we have a big enough pile of dead bodies to use as a soapbox.

Bill S said...

D. Sidhe, I think you're being too lenient.

Brian Schlosser said...

@D Sidhe: Hypothetical underage whores are a precious resource that must be protected at all costs!

You said everything I wanted to say about Lila Fucking Rose, so I have nothing to add.

Except... "Screaming Infant Orgasms" would make a great band name

Woodrowfan said...

To be fair, Bill, it did take me two whole days to say anything that wasn't just a string of curse words.

You people need to read more then just what is on this blog. Dr. Reisman has done extensive research, and I fear she is very correct about what she reports.
This site, stating that it is Crap, doesn't make it so.
Do your own research, think for yourselves.

Anonymous said...

This article is playing shoot the messenger, because they know deep down that Dr. Judith Reisman's work is correct.

I'm afraid the courts, the consensus of the scientific community, and plain old common sense take issue with "Dr." Reisman's expectorations.

annonnonomous said...

@ Anonymous' comments, I have done the research.
She has essentially been committing slander against Kinsey and planned parenthood. Read what Kinsey actually wrote. Read what planned parenthood actually do. You know, provide much needed health care to women.
Oh, the audacity of these people!

"Dr" *snickers* Judith Reisman (I believe that cheapens the word doctor and is an insult to actual Doctors/People with Doctorates, who's with me?) likens pedophilia to homosexuality. A viewpoint shredded by actual reputable people in the field. You know, the ones doing actual research. Just because the conclusions of said research happen to conflict your own prejudice you hold against gay people, doesn't magically make it untrue.

Also, the anti-gay "people" who use scientific research in order to prove their argument have the same people who did the work complain on the record that their work/s have been misrepresented.

Sorry about the rant, but, I for one, am sick of these people spreading lies and committing slander/libel against people they haven't even met.

What research, she has done NONE. She has just vomited out her ancient dated stereotypes. The sooner sick people like her and her ilk die off, a better place the world will become.
