It's like something I think of occasionally, which is the huge debt we owe to our younger selves and anyone who is still too young to get away with doing what they want. Sometimes I imagine what the younger me would have thought to know that the day would come when I could stay up until all hours, eat anything I wanted to, drink, get shitfaced, dance naked in my own house, et cetera. This is a huge honour, and we do our younger selves a grave disservice when we turn out to be someone that that self would have hated. It's bad enough that I routinely go to bed at about ten o'clock, but at least I'm sleeping naked next to another guy — although it's not clear whether the younger me would have liked the thought of that. If nothing else, it would have shed light on a question that I never thought much about at the time.

Tracking the origin of Hurricane 47, it did not begin in the Atlantic Ocean or the Caribbean. It began in the minds of two individuals in Aurora and Golden, Colorado. They have an anti-union bias. They are trying to take that bias out on all Coloradans. They say they are working for "workers' rights." The exact opposite is true. Workers' rights get trampled on in so-called "right-to-work" states.

Hurricanes in Colorado shouldn’t happen. But put enough hot air and moisture into the air, add lots of ego and selfishness, and a Colorado worker hurricane can develop. The crazy thing is that this amendment will alter the State Constitution. That kind of law would devastate Colorado like Katrina and Ike did to the Gulf Coast states. It will take years to try and rebuild the workplace for true workers' rights if passed. Changing an amendment back to the original existing law is nearly impossible.

You have two choices, Colorado. Buy up all the plywood you can for your doors and windows, a new generator for temporary power, store up food and water, and pray. Or, you can keep it simple: Vote NO on 47.

Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA)

Hey friends, whether or not you support Obama, you have got to understand completely what he supports and plans to enforce. His “change” platform is for real. This e-mail is about the revived “Freedom of Choice Act” that is currently in Congress and will come up for a vote. Below is what is behind the bill and what it really means. I believe we will be held accountable for our votes and who we put in office. As a result, these officials appoint judges to the Supreme Court. It matters who we put in office.

I have included links where you can sign a petition to protest the signing of this bill. There is more to it than you think. Don’t be fooled.

Did you know Obama calls abortion at any level, “Reproductive Justice.”

WE NEED TO WAKE UP AND TAKE ACTION. WE HAVE BEEN SILENT TOO LONG, MYSELF INCLUDED. PLEASE JOIN IN MY EFFORTS TO SPREAD THE TRUTH ABOUT THIS DANGEROUS PIECE OF LEGISLATION AROUND THE UNITED STATES TODAY. TIME IS CRITICAL.

"Freedom of Choice Act" FOCA

"The first thing I'd do as president is sign the Freedom of Choice Act.  That's the first thing that I'd do."  -- Senator Barack Obama, speaking to the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, July 17, 2007

"Throughout my career, I've been a consistent and strong supporter of reproductive justice, and have consistently had a 100% pro-choice rating with Planned Parenthood and NARAL Pro-Choice America.”

WHAT IS FOCA?

Pro-Abortion Senators Propose Bill to Invalidate All Limits on Abortion at the Federal, State and Local Levels. The bill is S. 2020. also know as S.1173, H.R. 1964 and S.1173.

Hosted by Senator Barbara Boxer (D-Ca.), the so-called "Freedom of Choice Act" (FOCA) was endorsed by leaders of NARAL, the Planned Parenthood Federation of America, the National Abortion Federation, NOW, and other groups.

The claim that the bill would ‘codify Roe’ is just a marketing gimmick.

By its actual language, the bill would invalidate any "statute, ordinance, regulation, administrative order, decision, policy, practice, or other action" of any federal, state, or local government or governmental official (or any person acting under government authority) that would "deny or interfere with" a woman’s right to abortion.

This no-restriction policy would establish, in Boxer’s words, "the absolute right to choose" prior to fetal "viability."

These no-restriction policies would apply to any type of abortion, including partial-birth abortion.

A poor woman would not be denied the use of Medicaid if she chooses to have an abortion." In other words, state governments and the federal government would be mandated to fund abortion with taxpayer money.

WHAT DOES IT MEAN?

In a press release issued on January 22 , Senator Boxer gave a number of examples of current laws that would be invalidated by the bill, including:

* Laws restricting government funding of abortion.

* Laws prohibiting abortions in public hospitals.

* Laws requiring that girls and women seeking abortion receive certain information on matters such as fetal development and alternatives to abortion

* All laws allowing doctors, nurses, or other state-licensed professionals, and hospitals or other health-care institutions, to conscientiously object to performing or participating in abortions.

* All laws requiring notification to, or consent of, a parent or judge before an abortion is performed on a minor.

* All laws prohibiting medical personnel other than licensed physicians from performing abortions.

* Any law or any action by any government official that would "discriminate against the exercise of" the abortion right in the regulation or provision of any "benefits, facilities, services, or information."

*  Any statement or action by any government official, including any elected official, and any government program of any kind, could be legally attacked if someone thought it discriminated against abortion. This sweeping mandate would cover everything from rural health clinics, to health education programs in public schools, to pro-life speeches by public officials.

*  Prohibits any government actions that would "deny or interfere with a woman’s right to choose to bear a child," but Boxer and the groups gave no examples of any laws that would be invalidated by that provision.

Those promoting this bill intend it to be a litmus test for those who hold or seek congressional office, and a fund-raising tool – they know they have no hope of passing it while the President and the leadership of both houses of Congress are pro-life." THAT’S WHY THEY WANT OBAMA.

President Clinton, a FOCA supporter.

The original FOCA faded from view after Republicans took control of the House of Representatives in the 1994 election. GET THE LIBRALS OUT.

Obama is one of the very few pro-choice advocates who accepts no restrictions on late-term abortions, or any kind of abortions. No instance can be found in his entire career in which he voted for any regulation or restriction on the practice of abortion.

Barack Obama's "Freedom of Choice Act" Would Mean 125K More Abortions

by Matt Bowman
September 24, 2008
With so much attention on the economy, one area of federal legislation that can be overlooked is abortion. An old and dangerous bill that will increase abortions by an enormous amount is being resurrected by abortion advocates: the Freedom of Choice Act (FOCA). H.R. 1964 and S.1173.

FOCA is usually reported as “codifying Roe v. Wade,” but it is much more.

FOCA means no restrictions.

Specifically, if FOCA is passed it will increase abortions by 125,000 more per year in the United States. Since 2004,

FOCA will strike down other laws, state and federal, that reduce abortions, and will force states to facilitate abortions. 125,000 more abortions is only the tip of the FOCA iceberg.

FOCA is indeed a staggering expansion of abortion, both in principle and in actual lives lost.

Obama Statement on 35th Anniversary of Roe v. Wade Decision

Chicago, IL | January 22, 2008

Chicago, IL -- Senator Barack Obama today released the following statement on the 35th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade decision.

"Thirty-five years after the Supreme Court decided Roe v. Wade, it's never been more important to protect a woman's right to choose. Last year, the Supreme Court decided by a vote of 5-4 to uphold the Federal Abortion Ban, and in doing so undermined an important principle of Roe v. Wade: that we must always protect women's health. With one more vacancy on the Supreme Court, we could be looking at a majority hostile to a women's fundamental right to choose for the first time since Roe v. Wade. The next president may be asked to nominate that Supreme Court justice. That is what is at stake in this election."Throughout my career, I've been a consistent and strong supporter of reproductive justice, and have consistently had a 100% pro-choice rating with Planned Parenthood and NARAL Pro-Choice America.

"When South Dakota passed a law banning all abortions in a direct effort to have Roe overruled, I was the only candidate for President to raise money to help the citizens of South Dakota repeal that law. When anti-choice protesters blocked the opening of an Illinois Planned Parenthood clinic in a community where affordable health care is in short supply, I was the only candidate for President who spoke out against it. And I will continue to defend this right by passing the Freedom of Choice Act as president.

"But we also know that Roe v. Wade is about more than a woman's right to choose; it's about equality. It's about whether our daughters are going to have the same opportunities as our sons. And so to truly honor that decision, we need to update the social contract so that women can free themselves, and their children, from violent relationships."

Het is zo ver... Onze langverwachte fuif: "De Nacht van de Leffe" staat dit weekend op de kalender! Meer informatie over de fuif kan je nog altijd terugvinden op www.nachtvandeleffe.tk

Het voorbije weekend zijn normaal de allerlaatste affiches; flyers en stickers rondgegaan. Voor de laatste zaterdagnamiddag waren we alsnog met velen (zo had het iedere zaterdag moeten zijn): Ik; Inge; Nele M; Dieter V; Niels & Wannes zijn naar de Oogstfuif in Wervik getrokken. Benne; Tom; Céline B; David; Jeroen V zijn richting Diksmuide getrokken. Ook ' s avonds werd er bij wijze van slotoffensief nog druk geflyerd door Inge, ikzelf, Sofie; Klaas & Elien op de Oogstfuif & door enkele gedreven klj'ers op de DUST 2 DUST! Allen bedankt voor het werk dat jullie geleverd hebben de voorbije weken! Hopelijk dragen we er zaterdagavond de vruchten van ;-)

Deze week verwachten we jullie reeds op donderdagavond om 18u, voor het rechtzetten van de tent. Ook vrijdag, zaterdag en zondag zullen we nog bezig zijn voor onze fuif.  Voor alle duidelijkheid, het is niet verboden om ook deze week nog vollop kaartjes te verkopen of om verder reclame te maken! Veel succes, en tot één dezer dagen! Groetjes, het bestuur.

De KLJ brief voor de Nacht van de Leffe kan je hier bekijken...

De acordo com a Caixa, os números são os seguintes:

29 - 40 - 43 - 44 - 45 - 47
Segundo a Caixa Econômica Federal, se aplicado na poupança, o prêmio renderia cerca de R$ 10 mil por mês. A Caixa ainda não divulgou se houve ganhadores.

De primeras nos encontramos con un shooter online (sin cuotas), 2 bandos y diversas misiones como plantar una bomba, rescatar al vip, etc... . Multiple armamento nos espera, desde rifles a escopetas. Hay pequeñas direfencias entre los dos bandos.

Como banco 'CT' (Counter-Terrorist), digamos el bueno, nos encontramos a soldados entrenados y cualificados.

Como bando 'T' (Terrorist) estan los rebeldes que quieres destruir el mundo con bombas y matar a los vip, el enemigo por así decirlo.

Hay diferencias en las armas, tanto en los rifles de asalto y las metralletas, y una mínima en los rifles de precisión (un rifle francotirador).

Para jugar es necesario el programa 'Steam' de Valve corporation y una conexión a internet, aunque esto no es problema ya que es un juego on-line. Aunque la gente eche pestes sobre este programa yo lo encuentro agradable y muy práctico. No hay que buscar las actualizaciones, posibilidad de gestionar los servidores y favoritos, amigos, etc...

Al ser un juego online, y a la vez uno de los más jugados existen diversidad de mod´s y/o modificaciones (paso a nombrar las más importantes):

gg_(gungame): Empieza en nivel 1,o la media de los jugadores si entras a media partida, y cuando matas a un enemigo subes de nivel y consigues otra arma. Revives una vez muerto. NO se pueden comprar armas. Tambien he encontrado una variación en la que tienes que eliminar a 3 enemigos para subir de nivel y no revives.

dm_(deathmatch): Escoges las armas que quieres, sin pagar nada. A esta configuración se le añade una granada automáticamente. Se revive una vez muerto. Son partidas largas con mucha gente.

zm_(zombiemod): El bando ct sigue tal como es, y el T son zombies). La partida comienza con jugadores CT y T, pasados unos segundos, algun jugador se convierte en zombie (T) y los demás jugadores son CT. El zombie convierte a los demás jugadores en zombies con el cuchillo, independientemente del daño que le haga. Normalmente hay munición infinita y props, para añadir objetos al mapa con la finalidad de impedir el paso de loz zombies. Los zombies suelen tener 10000-20000 puntos de vida. MUY entretenidas.

ba_(jailhouse): Transcurre en una cárcel, los T son los presos y los CT los guardias. Los guardias deben controlar a los presos en las actividades que hagan. Los presos estan en sus celdas, y no se les puede matar sin motivo. Un preso consigue un arma dentro. Todos los presos tienen el cuchillo. Tan solo con poseer un arma ya es motivo para que maten al preso. Es la revelación del momento, yo personalmente le veo mucho futuro. Tienes que engañar a los guardias, o evitar que te engañen.

El juego puede parecer un poco repetitivo, pero siempre apetece jugar. Lo mio va por rachas, ya que a veces me aburro y luego lo retomo con unas ganas tremedas, los 20€ mejor invertidos de mi vida.

Nu är det verkligen dags med en uppdatering.

Innan sommaren hade vi ett möte med Mollys närmaste dagisfröken där vi informerade henne om Trippel X. Nu efter sommaren har allt verkligen börjat sätta fart... De har haft möte med enhetens specialpedagog och även vi föräldrar ska träffa henne den 9e september för att se var Mollys svårigheter ligger och på vad dagis kan lägga sitt fokus. Specialpedagogen har även hjälpt oss med att ordna remiss till talpedagog. Mollys fröken ska också informera resten av personalen på hennes avdelning.

Nu på fredag ska Molly göra sin tunntarmsbiopsi för att se om hon är glutenintolerant. Hon kommer att sövas när hon opereras, vilket kan vara lite "speciellt" för barn med genetiska avvikelser.

Sedan väntar vi även på en remiss till Huddinge för hörseltest. Hon misslyckades på hörseltestet på 4års-kontrollen och därför ska hon göra om den. Det är dock inget fel på hennes hörsel utan Mollys pappa som var med till bvc tyckte att sköterskan förklarade för dåligt vad Molly skulle göra när hon hörde pipet. Men jag funderar en del på om hon har problem med språkförståelsen också, hoppas att talpedagogen eller de på Huddinge kan ge mig svar på det.
