deer darteddeer saves woman
In Oxford, Ohio a woman is saved by a deer. While a man was attacking a woman – choking her with her purse straps and punching her in the forehead – a deer darted in the darkness, startling the attacker and scaring him away, police said Monday.
“The deer jumped up and ran…and so did he,†said police spokesman Sgt. Jon Varley.
Varley thinks the deer was asleep for the night when the woman was leaving a party early Sunday and the commotion of the attack stirred the animal awake.
No description of the attacker – or the heroic deer – was available. Information from www.enquirer.com

Good thing the deer escaped. He’d be cited for no license if found.

Was it a fluke? A surprising bit of luck that Sandra Fluke was chosen by Democrat Congressman Cummings? Why not email Congressman Cummings and ask him. There is no phone listed for Congressman Cummings. He is on Facebook. Call Congressman
More likely it was Democrat strategy which caused Democrat Congressman Cummings to choose Georgetown University 3rd year law student Sandra Fluke to testify at Darrell Essa’s congressional hearing on religious freedom and Obama’s mandate that churches pay for birth control.
Georgetown University has Catholic roots and does not pay for birth control for students. Sandra Fluke knew Georgetown University’s policies and choose to enroll anyway.
Per review of Georgetown University Law Center curriculum, third year law student Sandra Fluke probably took the usual array of law classes typically offerred by most law schools.
Georgetown University Law Center’s curriculum is listed below.
Georgetown University Law Center’s curriculum looks quite similar to the curriculum offered at Monterey College of Law, Seaside, California. Georgetown Law Center just costs three times as much as Monterey College of Law.
Of note, Georgetown University Law Center offers no law courses in reproductive rights, male and female sexuality or privacy law. Georgetown offers nothing that provides legal training directly related to being a ‘reproductive rights advocate’ which is how Ms. Fluke describes herself.
Just possibly Ms. Fluke may have taken a class titled Advanced Constitutional Law available to third year students. [Constitutional Law does discuss the Supreme Court cases related to the reproductive privacy rights of woman.]
Why not call Congressman Cummings, a member of the Congressional Black Caucus, and ask him why Sandra Fluke? It’s easy to contact him via a contact box http://cummingsform.house.gov Congressman Cummings is also on Facebook. And his wife is Dr Maya Rockeymore-Cummings.

“Selecting courses as a second and third year student can be a daunting task. Georgetown is blessed with an enormous range of course offerings. Yet, the breadth of choices can make the selection process seem overwhelming. Many years ago the Law Center had a prescribed upperclass curriculum. The faculty stopped dictating which courses upperclass students should take, however, when they themselves no longer agreed about what should be required, given the increasing diversity of law practice and divergent views about the benefits of various courses of study. This movement away from required upperclass curriculum has occurred at most law schools in the country. Currently at Georgetown, the only required upperclass courses are Professional Responsibility and a course that meets the upper level writing requirement.”
“Nonetheless, most faculty and lawyers would probably concur that it is advisable for students to take Tax I, Constitutional Law II, and Corporations. Taxation and the corporate form are ubiquitous in our society and therefore lawyers should have at least some familiarity with these areas. In addition, these courses are prerequisites to a number of more advanced offerings in the areas of business and corporate law. Constitutional Law is not only relevant to other courses, it addresses fundamental issues about the nature of our government that well educated lawyers should understand. In addition to these courses, most students take Evidence: it is a prerequisite for many clinical courses and in the view of many is basic to understanding the American judicial processes. Finally, given increased globalization, lawyers frequently need to be able to operate effectively beyond our national borders — communicating with people of other legal traditions and understanding the potential complications when other legal traditions are implicated. As a result, we recommend that you take one or more courses in international or comparative law.”
“Beyond these courses, you should select a balanced and well-rounded array of courses that add to your theoretical understanding, your doctrinal breadth, and provide you with exposure to the range of skills that a good lawyer needs. You should choose a mixture of public law courses, such as Administrative Law, Criminal Law, Environmental Law, International Law I, or Federal Courts, and private law courses such as Commercial Law, Corporate Finance, Intellectual Property, International Law II, or Family Law. Most faculty members would also encourage you to take at least one course a year (or semester) that particularly piques your interest even if it is not clear how it will fit into your career plans.”
“Lawyers are called upon to use not only their analytical skills and substantive knowledge, but also their ability to structure creative solutions, to work collaboratively with others, to negotiate effectively, to be persuasive orally and in writing, and to communicate effectively with both lawyers and non-lawyers. Therefore, you should consider taking courses that use a variety of pedagogical formats and enhance your skills in a variety of areas. We recommend that you consider doing a clinic. Clinics offer not only the opportunity to “learn by doing,” but also the unique opportunity to engage in critical self-reflection about the lawyering process. In addition to our clinics, Georgetown offers an extensive array of practice and problem based courses such as Business Planning Seminar, Negotiation, Civil Discovery, and Trial Practice.”
“Some students discover their area of professional interest while in law school. For these students, we have provided lists of courses in particular subject areas. The Dean’s Office and faculty members will be glad to provide advice on the selection and sequencing of courses in particular subject areas. But, if like many other students you are unsure of what your professional interest in law are, remember that a life in law is a life time of learning from other lawyers, from your clients and CLE courses and we hope through Georgetown. Finally, many students find very rewarding an experience of deep and intensive engagement in the 3rd year either through a capstone seminar such as Professor Tushnet’s Advanced Constitutional Law Seminar or a major clinic. You may want to plan your schedule accordingly.”
“You will find additional information on this Web site and in the bulletin. We also encourage you to seek advice about your specific academic programs from individual professors or the deans during the course registration process. In addition, various group events such as the Curriculum Fair and Faculty Panels on Course Selection are helpful sources of information.”

shape of food & other items cause sex thoughts for Muslim women?
CAIRO: An Islamic cleric residing in Europe said that women should not be close to bananas or cucumbers, in order to avoid any “sexual thoughts.â€
The unnamed sheikh, who was featured in an article on el-Senousa news, was quoted saying that if women wish to eat them, a third party, preferably a male related to them such as their a father or husband, should cut the items into small pieces and serve.
He said that these foods “resemble the male penis†and hence could arouse women or “make them think of sex.â€
He also added carrots and zucchini to the list of forbidden items.

He left out pencils, pens, clarinets, AK 47s, cigars, Koranic scrolls and minarets.
NOT the devil made me do it...
Norway is suffering from an unprecedented wave of rapes that are largely being perpetrated by Muslim immigrants against local women.
After a police report in Oslo said that Muslims were raping Norwegian women out of a religious conviction that this was the proper thing to do, a stormy public debate erupted. And “the government ministers, most of them avowed anti-Semites, claimed that the report and its publication serve Israel and its policy of occupation.”
Norway’s justice minister defended the police report but also said that “Israel must be glad to hear about it.”…

women seek freedom to drive cars in Saudi Arabia
Repealing a ban on women drivers in Saudi Arabia would result in ‘no more virgins’, the country’s religious council has warned.
A ‘scientific’ report claims relaxing the ban would also see more Saudis – both men and women – turn to homosexuality and pornography.
The startling conclusions were drawn by Muslim scholars at the Majlis al-Ifta’ al-A’ala, Saudi Arabia’s highest religious council, working in conjunction with Kamal Subhi, a former professor at the King Fahd University. (snip)
The report warns that allowing women to drive would ‘provoke a surge in prostitution, pornography, homosexuality and divorce’.
Within ten years of the ban being lifted, the report’s authors claim, there would be ‘no more virgins’ in the Islamic kingdom.

patient centered treatment gives quality of life Woman living with advanced breast cancer seek quality of life not just quantitiy of life. Palliative approaches can help women whose cancer has spread to feel beter and possibly live linger.
Amy Berman published a Letter to the Editor, Wall Street Journal, June 23, 2011, titled When Quality of Life is Especially Dear.
Avastian gives 5-6 months progression-free survival for women with advanced breast cancer. To be able to have Avastian should be possible for women with breast cancer. Lately, the FDA seeks to removal of approval of Avastian for breast cancer.
Amy Berman, diagnosed with an aggressive form of breast cancer that spreads rapidly, rightfully wants quality of life — not quantity. She has chosen a palliative approach without chemotherapy, radiation or mastectomy.
What Amy Berman says makes complete sense. The patient’s goals must be central to decisions for patient care. For more info go to Amy’s blog: www.jhartfound.org/blog

written by Amy Berman. “For those of you who haven’t yet heard, I have recently been diagnosed with Stage IV inflammatory breast cancer. This rare form of breast cancer is known for its rapid spread. True to form, it has metastasized to my spine. This means my time is limited. As a nurse, I knew it from the moment I saw a reddened spot on my breast and recognized it for what it was.
“My recent journey through the health care system has been eye-opening. In only a few months, I have witnessed the remarkable capabilities and the stunning shortcomings of our health care system firsthand. I am writing here because in the time I have left, I hope my story and my journey can help illustrate why some of the reforms that my colleagues and I at the John A. Hartford Foundation, as well as many others, have championed are so important.
“At the cancer’s earliest appearance, I consulted with a well-regarded oncologist in New York. After the tests were done she regretfully informed me that my disease was not curable. Because my cancer is hormone-receptor-positive, she recommended an evidence-based course of medications aimed at slowing the progression of the disease. Before I committed to this course of care, I wanted to get a second opinion. I secured an appointment with the pre-eminent researcher/clinician in the field of inflammatory breast cancer, at a top medical institution in Philadelphia.
“The building was beautiful, the staff attentive. They even assigned a nurse, whom they assured would follow me throughout my course of care. I had no doubt that the care would be top-notch.
“Everything changed when my mother and I sat down with the physician. He never asked about my goals for care. He recommended an aggressive approach of chemotherapy, radiation, mastectomy, and more aggressive chemotherapy. My doctor back in New York had said this was the standard, evidence-based protocol for patients in Stage IIIB, whose cancer had only spread locally. But since I am in Stage IV she said I wouldn’t get the benefit of this aggressive, curative approach.
“All of my patients use this protocol,†he said.
I was shocked. “Does this mean I could get better?†I asked.
“No, this is not a cure.†he answered. “But if you respond to the treatment, you might live longer, although there are no guarantees.â€
“My goals are to maximize my quality of life so I can live, work, and enjoy my family with the least pain and the most function. Would I undergo a year or more of grueling, debilitating treatment only to live with spinal fractures if the cancer progressed? Would the treatment strip me of the quality of life I enjoy now? I wouldn’t be cured by the treatment. Would I get the possibility of quantity and no quality?
I pressed him. “Why do the mastectomy?†I asked, puzzled. “The cancer has already spread to my spine. You can’t remove it.â€
His brow furrowed. “Well, you don’t want to look at the cancer, do you?â€
He made it sound like cosmetic surgery. Considering that a total mastectomy includes months of pain and rehabilitation, I thought that worrying about the view was secondary. Right now, I feel fine. I can work. I am pain free. Did I want to trade that for a slim chance of a little extra time (no guarantees, of course)? Would they be years of living, or years of suffering?
“But what about the side effects of radiation?†I asked. “I’ve heard they are terrible.â€
He frowned and seemed annoyed by my questions. “My patients don’t complain to me about it,†he replied.
Inwardly, I shook my head. Of course his patients never complained to him. Most of them were probably unaware that other, less aggressive treatments were viable options for patients with this stage of disease. To me, there were real drawbacks. Undergo aggressive therapy that might buy me a longer life…at what cost? I might never recover my health for the limited period of time I might have following the aggressive treatment. This doctor, top in his field, was reflecting the bias of our medical system towards focusing only on survival. He was focused only on quantity and forgot about quality. The patient’s goals and desires, hopes and fears, were not part of the equation. He was practicing one-size-fits-all medicine that was not going to be right for me, even though scientific studies showed it was statistically more likely to lengthen life. His lack of concern for my focus on quality versus quantity of life reminded me of how so many older Americans are treated at the end of life, shuttled in and out of hospitals and hooked up to countless machines to keep them alive when all they want is to manage pain and symptoms and to spend their final days at home, with their loved ones.
Based on a perverse set of metrics, the Philadelphia oncologist was offering technically the “best†care America had to offer. Yet this good care was not best for me. It wouldn’t give me health. Instead, it might take away what health I had. It doesn’t matter if care is cutting-edge and technologically advanced; if it doesn’t take the patient’s goals into account, it may not be worth doing.
I returned to my original oncologist. I was determined not only to choose treatment that would maximize the healthy time I had remaining, but also to use that time to call on our health care institutions and professionals to make a real commitment to listening to their patients.
In the health policy field, we call this patient-centered care. As a nurse and a senior program officer at a health care foundation, I understood my disease and my health care options well enough to make an informed decision about my treatment.
What about the millions of older Americans facing a terminal illness or chronic disease? How can they possibly stand up to the juggernaut of our health system and say, “No. I want care that focuses on my goals, care that is centered on me.†We need to make it easier for everyone to obtain care that fits their health care goals. How can we change the system and the measurement of quality to place the patient at the center? I call on everyone involved in health care practice and reform efforts to give serious thought about how we can reorient our health care system toward patient-centered care.
