Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a commentWould your children know how to save themselves in a school shooting? I’m not even sure I like the idea of having to teach this to a young person. I try to teach trust, honesty, confidence and following the rules yet to prepare a child to deal with such a situation we have to teach them insecurity (look over your shoulder), awareness (not a bad thing but in this context we are teaching suspicion), lack of trust, conspiracy and fear.
In college I pranced across the lawn at UT and looked at my surroundings and thought, "wow, if a snipper were in that tower or atop any of those buildings I could die right now." But I chose to embrace my moment and enjoy life rather than rush from bush to bush and shadow to shadow trying to evade the imaginary killer. Is a child capable of such a decision?

//Create the object
cfgm = CreateObject(’component’,'cfgooglemaps’);
//Pass the init function your google key and the
//lat and lon on which the map should be centered
cfgm.init(’INSERT GOOGLE MAP KEY’,38.898748,-77.037684);

Catholic Magazine Shows Naked Bottom November 11, 2005 7:26 am
Posted by djuggler in : Daily Life , add a commentThe Famiglia Cristiana weekly has apologized for showing a naked bottom in a country where nudity is common in non-religious magazines. If you want to see what the fuss is about, Speigel’s Daily Take has published the photograph toward the bottom of the page.
The advert, for a maker of ventilation machines, shows a naked bottom through a misty glass shower door. “If you want to see clearly, call an electrician now,†reads the text.
…
Editor Antonio Sciortino initially defended the magazine’s decision to run the advert but backed down after complaints from readers.
Instead of apologising, shouldn’t he have just asked for forgiveness?
