From American Family Association http://www.afa.net/sexualorientationshr1913.asp

The Hate Crime law, HR-1913, will make 30 sexual orientations federally-protected. The American Psychiatric Association (APA) has published 30 such sexual orientations that, because of Congress's refusal to define "sexual orientation," will be protected under this legislation. These 30 orientations are listed in the APA's Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM-IV), which is used by physicians, psychologists, social workers, nurses, and psychiatrists throughout the U.S. It is considered the dictionary of mental disorders. Those 30 sexual orientations include behaviors that are felonies or misdemeanors in most states. Among those sexual orientations being protected by HR-1913 are these:Apotemnophilia - sexual arousal associated with the stump(s) of an Amputee Asphyxophilia - sexual gratification derived from activities that involve oxygen deprivation through hanging, strangulation, or other means Autogynephilia - the sexual arousal of a man by his own perception of himself as a woman or dressed as a woman Bisexual - the capacity to feel erotic attraction toward, or to engage in sexual interaction with, both males and females Coprophilia - sexual arousal associated with feces Exhibitionism - the act of exposing one’s genitals to an unwilling observer to obtain sexual gratification Fetishism/Sexual Fetishism - obtaining sexual excitement primarily or exclusively from an inanimate object or a particular part of the body Frotteurism - approaching an unknown woman from the rear and pressing or rubbing the penis against her buttocks Heterosexuality - the universal norm of sexuality with those of the opposite sex Homosexual/Gay/Lesbian - people who form sexual relationships primarily or exclusively with members of their own gender Gender Identity Disorder - a strong and persistent cross-gender identification, which is the desire to be, or the insistence that one is, or the other sex, "along with" persistent discomfort about one’s assigned sex or a sense of the inappropriateness in the gender role of that sex Gerontosexuality - distinct preference for sexual relationships primarily or exclusively with an elderly partner Incest - sex with a sibling or parent Kleptophilia - obtaining sexual excitement from stealing Klismaphilia - erotic pleasure derived from enemas Necrophilia - sexual arousal and/or activity with a corpse Partialism - A fetish in which a person is sexually attracted to a specific body part exclusive of the person Pedophilia - Sexual activity with a prepubescent child (generally age 13 years or younger). The individual with pedophilia must be age 16 years or older and at least 5 years older than the child. For individuals in late adolescence with pedophilia, no precise age difference is specified, and clinical judgment must be used; both the sexual maturity of the child and the age difference must be taken into account; the adult may be sexually attracted to opposite sex, same sex, or prefer either Prostitution - the act or practice of offering sexual stimulation or intercourse for money Sexual Masochism - obtaining sexual gratification by being subjected to pain or humiliation Sexual Sadism - the intentional infliction of pain or humiliation on another person in order to achieve sexual excitement Telephone Scatalogia - sexual arousal associated with making or receiving obscene phone calls Toucherism - characterized by a strong desire to touch the breast or genitals of an unknown woman without her consent; often occurs in conjunction with other paraphilia Transgenderism - an umbrella term referring to and/or covering transvestitism, drag queen/king, and transsexualism Transsexual - a person whose gender identity is different from his or her anatomical gender Transvestite - a person who is sexually stimulated or gratified by wearing the clothes of the other gender Transvestic Fetishism - intense sexually arousing fantasies, sexual urges, or behaviors involving cross-dressing Urophilia - sexual arousal associated with urine Voyeurism - obtaining sexual arousal by observing people without their consent when they are undressed or engaged in sexual activity Zoophilia/Bestiality - engaging in sexual activity with animals To protect a "sexual orientation" under H.R. 1913 - while leaving that term undefined -- is to protect this whole range of bizarre sexual behaviors. It is to normalize by federal law what are still considered to be mental disorders (paraphilias) by the American Psychiatric Association.

Tea Party Sioux Falls and Lincoln High School

Letter sent to the author of the Argus Leader Article which Questioned Lincoln High's Participation in the Local Tea Party.
http://www.argusleader.com/apps/pbcs.dll/article?AID=2009904170320

Hi Josh,

Thanks for your article this morning regarding the involvement of the Lincoln High School Choir and Drum Line in the Tea Party on April 15th, 2009.

It appears to me that the administrators at the school are trying to paint a picture that Lincoln High does not participate in partisan politics.

Your article states...

"Lincoln assistant principal Mike Klinedinst said the band and choir were assured the event was non-partisan. "We were misled and the students were misled," he said. "We're going to have to ask more questions next time."

Konrad said student musicians frequently are invited to perform at various events. If it's partisan, they don't go."

Check out the Dakotavalues Blog, written back in August 2008, during the election, about the Obama pictures on the school's newspaper's, THE STATEMEN'S, website. The photos appeared for months on that website. Also read the comment which describes the atmosphere at Lincoln during the election. The link is no longer active to the Large Obama pictures.

Some of the pictures which were on the Lincoln site earlier during the election are currently in a "slideshow" on the paper's website.

Josh, you may also check the "search" on The Statesmen's Website and see what you find when you search for Obama, you will find several articles... http://lhsstatesman.com/index.php?option=com_search&Itemid=5&searchword=obama&submit=Search&searchphrase=any&ordering=newest
Josh, does it sound to you like the folks at Lincoln were somewhat partisan?
http://lhsstatesman.com/index.php?option=com_content&task=view&id=21&Itemid=2
If you search for "Bush" no articles are in their files.

Josh, I thought that you would be interested in hearing a little more about some recent history at Lincoln.. Seems to me that Lincoln High School is partisan but only where and when they want to be.

Sincerely,

Jeff Hayes
Lincoln High School Alumni

Sarah Buller Arrives In Heaven!

I'm Touched When I Think Of The Life Of 18 Year Old Sarah Buller! She served mankind as noted on her blog..."Loving Those, Who Others May Forget!"

A Tribute To Sarah Buller From Hendricks, Minnesota. Sarah at the young age of 18, serving as a Missionary in South Africa went home to be with the Lord on Sunday, April 5th... the result of a car accident.

Sarah said on her blog...

"Ok so here is a little bit about me. I'm from Hendricks, MN. I've lived here all of my 18 years! It's a very small town (725)! My parents are awesome... most of the time!
I'm the oldest of 9 kids, we have a lot of fun! I have grown up in a Christan home, gone to church every Sunday. Never missed a Sunday except when I was born (I was born on Easter) all that good stuff!
when I was 5 I was listening to "The Donut Man" I thought, I understand, I'll say the prayer. But not until I was 12 or 13 when I really gave my life to Him. I was a homebody! I was at Acquire The Fire a youth conference. They talked a lot about missions and how we need to tell other people about the grace, the love Christ gives us! We can't just sit and let people walk by us everyday that are hurting and lost and not tell them. Oh and I live on a farm!! I'm a farm girl, dude it's in my blood! You probably know me. I'm Sarah Buller from Hendricks, MN. I'll be in South Africa for 9 mouths with AIM Adventures In Missions.

"God Speed Sarah!"

Islamic Financial System Solution To Meltdown - Is Islam The Answer?!?!?!

‘Islamic financial system solution to meltdown’
Ians March 29th, 2009
ALIGARH - Greed and individualism must give way to a cooperative approach of Islamic financial system to rid the world of the current economic meltdown, a renowned Muslim scholar said Sunday.


Nejatullah Siddiqui, the scholar, was speaking at the inaugural session of the conference on Islamic Finance and World Economy organised by the Department of Business Administration, Aligarh Muslim University in collaboration with the Taqwaa Advisory and Shariah Investment Solutions (TASIS).

Siddiqui observed the main causes of the current financial crisis were the absence of ethics and morality.

‘Man must learn to live in moderation in view of the limits our environment imposes. Moderation in pursuit of material gains and in consumption has been part of the teachings of religions in general and Islam in particular. IT IS TIME TO BRING THEM IN.’

He said the international financial institutions - like the IMF and the World Bank - were the tools to serve designs of the rich and powerful nations.

Chief investment officer of Bajaj Allianz Shashi Kushanan highlighted the scope of Islamic finance and the ethical and moral approach of Shariah based investments.

He said India has Shariah compliant stocks more than any other Islamic country. More than 50 percent of the people investing in these stocks are non-Muslims, he said.
