We wholeheartedly support the protection of children against any sort of abuse and especially against sexual abuse. However, we strongly feel the subject amendments to the Bill would be a mistake, ineffective ino discriminate against Catholics, should this amendment be passed into taw, for the following reasons: - ' Mistake - During the Sacrament of Confession, the victim can obtain healing, sound advice and counseling from the priest. However, if the priest is obligated to report the crime, a victim, who does not want the publicity, would choose to avoid discussing the abuse with a priest altogether. Currently, during the Sacrament of Confession, the victim knows that all Catholic priests have taken a Vow of confidentiality with regards to whatever is discussed during the Sacrament of Confession. lf the Recommendation 7.4 becames taw, the victim will once again be frustrated and could lead to suicide, at worst.

This Episode & Music Guide offers a comprehensive overview of all the episodes and all the songs played during the show. The episode guide is based on the first complete TWY episode guide which was originally posted in the newsgroup rec.arts.tv in 1993. It was compiled by Kirk Golding with contributions by Kit Kimes. It was in turn based on the first TWY episode guide ever put together by Jerry Boyajian and posted in the newsgroup rec.arts.tv in September 1991. Both are used with permission. The music guide is the work of many people. Shane Hill and Dawayne Melancon corrected and inserted several songs. Kyle Gittins revised the list; Matt Wilson and Arno Hautala provided several corrections. It is close to complete but there are still a few blank spots. Used with permission.

  • President's Message
    AMERICAN FISHERIES SOCIETY NEWSLETTER September 2007 INSIDE THIS ISSUE President’s Message News from around North Carolina Secretary-Treasurer’s Report Spotlight on Students and Young NCSU Student Subunit Report Professionals Education and Outreach Committee Meetings of Interest Awards Committee Valuable Links We would appreciate your comments on this electronic version of the NC Chapter Newsletter. Please send all responses to Jerry Finke ([email protected] ). President’s Message This September I had the pleasure of attending the 137th annual meeting of the American Fisheries Society. NC AFS members actively participated in the meeting through oral presentations, posters, and awards (noted elsewhere in the newsletter). With over 2,400 registered for the meeting comprised of 61 symposia, 1,400 oral presentations, 350 posters, and up to 23 concurrent technical sessions, the meeting truly represented the length and breath of the society. The old standby presentations on freshwater and marine fisheries ecology and management, fish culture and health, hydroacoustics and tagging were well accounted for. Relatively newer areas of focus were also prominent – ecosystem based modeling and management, habitat restoration, and human dimensions. Several speakers discussed the increasing complexity of resource management and greater involvement of special interest groups. Multi-stakeholder involvement has become an important component of the ecosystem approach to management by helping to better understand societal tradeoffs and frame policy choices. Building consensus among traditional and non-traditional groups (i.e. non-angling) stakeholders presents a greater challenge to resource agencies. Resource managers were encouraged to look to these non-angling groups to develop partnerships to support conservation and education efforts.
