Megaureter is an abnormality of one or both of the ureters of a child. Ureters are the two funnel-shaped tubes that carry urine from the kidneys to the bladder. A megaureter refers to an expanded or widened ureter that does not function normally. The size of a megaureter is usually greater than 7 millimeters in diameter.
Complications associated with megaureter include reverse flow of urine into the kidneys, and pooling of urine inside the ureter that does not drain. The pooling can cause a child to develop a urinary tract infection. In some children, complications from megaureter can cause kidney damage and failure.
A megaureter that is not associated with other problems occurs during fetal development. It occurs when a section of the ureter, which is normally a muscular layer of tissue, is replaced by stiff, fibrous tissue. In the absence of a muscular layer, normal peristalsis (worm-like movement of the ureter that propels urine towards the bladder) cannot occur.
Megaureter can occur alone, but usually occurs in combination with other disorders, such as prune belly syndrome.
The syndrome may occur in varying degrees, possibly causing blockage, and reverse flow of urine. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. The symptoms of a megaureter may resemble other conditions or medical problems. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
The severity of the problem often determines how a diagnosis is made. Often a megaureter is diagnosed by ultrasound while a woman is still pregnant. After birth, some children may have other problems that may suggest the presence of megaureter. Children who are diagnosed later often have developed urinary tract infections that require evaluation by a physician. This may prompt your child's physician to perform further diagnostic tests, which may include the following:
- Intravenous pyelogram (IVP) - a diagnostic imaging technique which uses an x-ray to view the structures of the urinary tract. An intravenous contrast of dye is given so that the structures can be seen on film. An IVP also reveals the rate and path of urine flow through the urinary tract.
- Voiding cystourethrogram (VCUG) - a specific x-ray that examines the urinary tract. A catheter (hollow tube) is placed in the urethra (tube that drains urine from the bladder to the outside of the body) and the bladder is filled with a liquid dye. X-ray images will be taken as the bladder fills and empties. The images will show if there is any reverse flow of urine into the ureters and kidneys.
- Abdominal ultrasound - a diagnostic imaging technique that uses high-frequency sound waves and a computer to create images of blood vessels, tissues, and organs. Ultrasounds are used to view internal organs as they function, and to assess blood flow through various vessels.
- Blood tests (to assess your child's electrolytes and to determine kidney function).
Specific treatment for megaureter will be determined by your child's physician based on:
- Your child's age, overall health, and medical history
- The extent of the disease
- Your child's tolerance for specific medications, procedures, or therapies
- Expectations for the course of the disease
- Your opinion or preference
Your child may require antibiotic therapy as a precaution to prevent future urinary tract infections.
In some cases, medical intervention is not required because the megaureter will resolve on its own over time. If there is a blockage of the urinary tract, however, a megaureter may require surgical intervention. The surgical procedure involves removing the section of the ureter that is abnormal, reducing it, and reconnecting the ureter.

Test Drive: The all-new 2017 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring AWD
Entry Price: $24,045
Price as tested: $33,785
This week, we're driving the all-new 2017 Mazda CX-5 Grand Touring, a compact SUV that has become the second–fastest Mazda vehicle to reach 1 million overall sales worldwide. Delivered with all-wheel-drive (AWD) underpinnings, this roomy five-passenger won't make you feel "compact" in any manner and features hundreds of new tweaks and upgrades in a new, elegant, design.
Mazda clearly states in its marketing campaigns that its Skyactiv-named technology is still a major consumer advantage. Specifically, Skyactiv is Mazda's word for a re-engineering process where each component complements the other resulting in supreme efficiency, performance and lower emissions.
Further, Mazda's continued commitment to its Skyactiv technology creed isn't just another gimmick born at some New York City ad agency. It's now dogma for the popular car maker and those who test drive a CX-5 quickly learn of the benefits of Mazda's Skyactiv engineering belief.
Originally, Mazda CX-5 debuted in 2013 to rave reviews. New for 2017 is a re-engineered suspension along with chassis advancements in G-Vectoring body/ride/handling control. The all-new exterior finds most prominent new headlights and front fascia that leads to a nice aerodynamic design overall, front to rear.
The interior is so roomy you'll think midsize SUV more so than a compact. You'll enjoy the standard heated front seats, two-stage reclining split rear seat, rear air conditioning vents, two rear USB ports (four total), Mazda radar cruise control, and available heated leather steering wheel and heated rear seats. Our tester had a $1,830 Premium Package option, which adds the aforementioned latter two enhancements in addition to memory driver seat, five-way power passenger seat, windshield projected active driving display and a windshield wiper de-icer. Overall, regardless of the Premium option, the cabin delivers more impressive detailing, extra storage areas, excellent instrumentation and more color combinations to choose from.
The entry level front-drive Sport now comes standard with the 2.5-liter four-cylinder coupled to a six speed automatic transmission for just $24,045. The next model up the CX-5 ladder is a mid-level CX-5 Touring starting at $25,915 and then the top line Grand Touring at $29,395. If you want the AWD version, add $900 to any CX-5 and you are ready for some off-road adventures and secure bad weather driving. The final tally on our tester is $33,785 retail which includes a $70 cargo mat, $250 retractable cargo cover and $940 delivery. Check your Mazda dealer for current incentives and discounts.
For 2017 CX-5 models, Mazda drops the smaller 2.0-liter four and also eliminates the six-speed manual transmission. Engine specs for the 2.5-four find 187 horses at your disposal and 185 lb. ft. of torque. Fuel mileage for the AWD CX-5's is quite good at 23 city and 29 highway while the front drive delivers 24 city and 31 highway. For 2017 CX-5 models, Mazda drops the smaller 2.0-liter four and also eliminates the six-speed manual transmission. Engine specs for the 2.5-four find 187 horses at your disposal and 185 lb. ft. of torque.
Underneath, every CX-5 features an independent suspension that results in a very agile and fun to drive vehicle. It's easy to park and a pleasure on the open highway, and I stress that engineers have again made the interior even quieter than the last year's CX-5.
Standard features on all CX-5s'are many, but the top line Grand Touring models come standard with amenities sure to impress. Included are blind spot monitoring, rainsense wipers, heated side mirrors, Bluetooth, all the powers, tilt and telescopic, Mazda Connect Infotainment with 10-speaker Bose surround sound stereo, SiriusXM, LED headlights and taillights, power moonroof, 7.0-inch display with rear back-up safety camera, Toyo A36 all season 19-inch tires on alloy wheels, dual zone air, rear 40/20/40 tri-split seat, roof spoiler, carpeted floor mats, leather trim, power driver seat with lumbar, heated front seats and more.
Additionally, the top line Grand Touring features as standard Mazda's "Smart City Brake Support" that helps prevent fender benders making everything a bit safer when you travel in a CX-5 Grand Touring. Other safety items include rear cross traffic alert, lane departure/ lane keep warning, all the air bags, hill launch assist, dynamic stability control, traction control and four-wheel disc anti-lock brakes.
A "roll-bar like" body-ring structure assures additional security. When you package all these safety items together, Mazda hopes to see similar government "Five-Star" overall safety ratings and an IIHS "Superior Rating Safety Pick," both of which were earned by the 2016 model.
Mazda engineers continue to develop more efficiency from smaller cubic inch engines, transmission gearing and AWD underpinnings that result in excellent performance and enhanced fuel mileage. Mazda's communications officer, Dean Case, continues to emphasize that the build philosophy Mazda delivers to its millions of CX-5 consumers is developed on the nation's top road racing courses as Mazda is a major player in several top Prototype classes and many other classes specifically for the popular Mazda Miata … which happens to be the first Mazda to reach 1 million sales.
Important numbers include a wheelbase of 106.2 inches, 3,655 curb weight, 15.3 gallon fuel tank, 7.6-inch ground clearance, 2,000 lb. tow capacity and up to 65 cu. ft. of cargo space depending on rear seat arrangement.
Mazda engineers continue to stay ahead of the curve with its new 2017 CX-5. These designers stress that continual development of Mazda's Skyactiv doctrine is top of mind at all times. The end result is yet another Test Drive Mazda CX-5 "Best Buy" recommendation.
Likes: New design overall, Skyactiv theory, pricing, safety.
Dislikes: Expensive option packages, infotainment learning curve.

Maybe you've seen the ads on the Internet or on TV in the wee hours of the morning. They make lofty promises: get rid of blue screens and error messages! Increase your speed! Clean up your system! But even when these PC cleanup apps aren't just malware in disguise, the things they're doing for your PC are often dubious. Many either replicate tasks that can be handled by built-in utilities or do things that could cause more problems than they solve.
To highlight just why you and your loved ones should never let these applications anywhere near your PC, we picked one that we have recently seen ads for: MyCleanPC. It's the archetypal Windows cleanup app—and you probably shouldn't install it.
Intimidation tactics
These ads for PC cleanup products often follow the same basic formula: appeal to people with slow or buggy PCs, throw in a few shots of an operating system that looks kind of like Windows, tack on some "customer testimonials," and offer a free diagnosis that will make all the problems go away.
Once they've offered an easy solution and encouraged you to download and install the software, their next play is to make it seem like everything is wrong with your PC. Installing the free MyCleanPC scanner and running it using the default settings resulted in 1,020 "issues" on a PC with a week-old, barely used clean install of Windows 8 running on it.
It turns out the threshold for what constitutes an "issue" is absurdly low. Each and every cookie and cache stored within Google Chrome—files that are completely normal and are in no way inherently problematic—are all counted as individual issues. Every individual fragmented file on your drive? Also an issue. Individual registry errors? Issues. Prepare for liberal use of scary red Xs and big warning labels hoping to further incite user panic.
The program is only too happy to identify all of these "issues" for you, but actually fixing them requires you to cough up $39.99 for a one-year license. These are business practices purpose-built to draw in especially worried or too-trusting users, with the goal of terrifying them about the run-down state of their PC before extracting money from their wallets.
So what should I do instead?
Many PC cleaning programs are designed to make your computer look more broken than it is and to extract money from users who do not understand that. To many of you, I'm sure that's a given. Luckily, the things these PC cleanup applications do (or say they do) are things that can be done just as easily with free tools, some of which are actually built into Windows itself.
If your PC is tossing up error messages and crashing all the time, the chances are good that your needs go further than what some sham of a cleanup app can fix for you. So what's the right way to handle a slow PC, or one that's acting strangely?
Malwarebytes Anti-Malware
It goes without saying that you should do a full scan of your hard drive with whatever anti-virus product you're using (I think Microsoft's solution, which is built-in to Windows 8 and freely downloadable for Windows 7, is fine, but your tastes may differ). If your computer is already infected, it might need a little extra help.
I've had excellent luck over the years with Malwarebytes Anti-Malware, a free security scanning product that does a decent job of cleaning infections that more conventional software can't quite scrub away. Think of it as getting a second opinion about your computer's health.
Let me Google that for you
Getting blue or black screens of death? Seeing particular error message pop-ups? There's no shame in turning to a search engine for help. Just a couple of months ago I cleaned a particularly stubborn infection from a family member's computer after Googling an error message I kept seeing. Neither Malwarebytes nor Microsoft Security Essentials could get rid of the infection entirely, but it was a common enough infection that another anti-virus vendor had issued a handy tool to destroy the malware.
Spring cleaning
If your PC is coming up clean but just seems slow, it might be time to try removing some apps. Installing an applications or plugin that you actually want can sometimes install applications and plugins that you never asked for, and these superfluous system tray icons and browser toolbars have a way of adding up over time. I hesitate to recommend that you uninstall things indiscriminately just because you don't know what they are… but you should consider it (and when in doubt, use the previous trick).
You should also run Windows' built-in Disk Cleanup tool to get rid of old temporary files. Defragmentation can also help if you have a spinning hard drive, but since Windows Vista, disk defragmentation is set to happen in the background on a schedule by default so it isn't really the go-to recommendation it once was.
Check for hardware problems
If you've tried all of the above and your PC is still acting strangely, it's time to start looking beyond software problems—it might be that you've got a bad stick of RAM or a failing hard drive that's causing all of your trouble. Luckily for you, we've got a handy guide to help you diagnose most common hardware problems.
The nuclear option: Reinstall Windows
If your hardware is fine, your other PC cleanup efforts have failed, and your computer is still acting strangely, it's time to resort to scorched-earth tactics. Reinstalling Windows is a gigantic pain, granted, but it's also the best way to guarantee a clean system, especially if you've been afflicted by some kind of rootkit.
We've got a pair of guides—one for Windows 7 and one for Windows 8—that will take you all the way through the reinstallation process if you have to do it from scratch. Chances are your PC also came with some kind of recovery media or restore partition that you can use in a pinch.
In either case you'll still need to take care of your own data, which you'll want to move to an external drive before wiping your operating system. You'll also want to be very careful when restoring this backed-up data to your fresh Windows installation—scan everything on the external drive with your anti-virus software of choice and Malwarebytes before moving it back to guard against re-infection.

From Wikipedia:
My Lai was the mass murder of 347–504 unarmed citizens in South Vietnam on March 16, 1968, conducted by a unit of the United States Army. All of the victims were civilians and most were women, children (including babies), and elderly people. Many of the victims were raped, beaten, tortured, and some of the bodies were found mutilated.
The massacre took place in the hamlets of Mỹ Lai and My Khe of Sơn Mỹ village during the Vietnam War. While 26 US soldiers were initially charged with criminal offenses for their actions at My Lai, only William Calley was convicted of killing 22 villagers. Originally given a life sentence, he served three and a half years under house arrest.
When the incident became public knowledge in 1969, it prompted widespread outrage around the world. The massacre also increased domestic opposition to the US involvement in the Vietnam War. Three US servicemen who made an effort to halt the massacre and protect the wounded were later denounced by US Congressmen. They received hate mail, death threats and found mutilated animals on their doorsteps. It would take 30 years before they were honored for their efforts.
The massacre is also known as the 'Sơn Mỹ Massacre' (Vietnamese: thảm sát Sơn Mỹ) or sometimes as the 'Song My Massacre.'
In 1989, the British television station Yorkshire Television broadcast the documentary Four Hours in My Lai as part of the ITV networked series First Tuesday. Using eyewitness statements from both Vietnamese and Americans the programme revealed new evidence about the massacre. Watch the video — in seven parts — below.

So, back on the wagon, I promised to get that list of twenty problem areas in my home taken care of. This week, I cleaned out the kitchen cabinets under my counters.
Here are the before pictures:
YIKES!! These cabinets are particularly troublesome. They always start nice and neat and then, after a few loads through the dishwasher, they end up a jumbled mess again.
To tackle them, first I took everything out. Yep.
Things got sorted. The thermos made it all the way to the top shelf cupboard next to the water bottles. The potato ricer went into the roasting pan in another cabinet, since I usually only take the time to rice potatoes when I'm making a big fancy roast or turkey. The ice cream attachment for my mixer got put away with the stuff in the basement that only gets used occasionally. A few things got donated. The rest I tried to put away in some way that would make it simple to keep nice.
The mixer attachments are inside the bowl under its cover. The pitchers and flower vases have been removed from this cabinet as well. I got a nice drink container for Christmas that I'm storing in the buffet, so I could get rid of the lame old plastic pitchers I was hanging on to.
And speaking of plastic…
Besides that pitcher back there, one large Tupperware container and the popsicle molds, I finally chucked the rest. Well donated. But, I finally feel like I have enough glass containers and have slowly over the last two years weeded through most of our plastic to the point where I feel like I can be plastic free. That should make things a lot simpler!
Looking at the before pictures on this project, it looked huge and daunting. But really it took me less than half an hour to get the job done. Looking forward to finishing this last few items of the list!
Be sure to check out the other projects I've completed: 20 Things.

Your Group Is Bad at Math: Quick, What's 748,659 – 7,298?
Posted by The Situationist Staff on May 25, 2007
Previous Situationist Posts have discussed some of the implications of stereotype threat, which loosely can be thought of as the (often self-fulfilling) fear that one's behavior or performance will confirm an existing stereotype associated with one's identity groups. For examples, see "Race Attributions and Georgetown University Basketball" and "Don W-Ho?." Other Situationist posts, including "Women's Situation in Economics," have looked at the role of stereotypes on women's performance in male-dominated fields.
A recent study, lead by Sian Beilock at the University of Chicago, sheds additional light on some of the sources and consequences of stereotype threat. We have pasted below the bulk of a press release summarizing the results of that study.
* * *
A popular stereotype that boys are better at mathematics than girls undermines girls' math performance because it causes worrying that erodes the mental resources needed for problem solving, new research at the University of Chicago shows.
The scholars found that the worrying undermines women's working memory. Working memory is a short-term memory system involved in the control, regulation and active maintenance of limited information needed immediately to deal with problems at hand.
They also showed for the first time that this threat to performance caused by stereotyping can also hinder success in other academic areas because mental abilities do not immediately rebound after being compromised by mathematics anxiety.
"This may mean that if a girl takes a verbal portion of a standardized test after taking the mathematics portion, she may not do as well on the verbal portion as she might do if she had not been recently struggling with math-related worries and anxiety," said Sian Beilock, Assistant Professor in Psychology [at the University of Chicago] and lead investigator in the study.
"Likewise, our work suggests that if a girl has a mathematics class first thing in the morning and experiences math-related worries in this class, these worries may carry implications for her performance in the class she attends next," she added.
The results of the study appear in the paper "Stereotype Threat and Working Memory: Mechanisms, Alleviation, and Spill Over," published in the current issue of the Journal of Experimental Psychology . . . . Co-authors are Robert Rydell, a postdoctoral researcher in psychology at the University of California, Santa Barbara and Allen McConnell, University Distinguished Professor of Psychology at Miami University.
Researchers have been aware that stereotypes can undermine achievement in schools in many ways, but little research has focused on the specific mental processes that prompt this response.
In order to examine those mental processes, the team selected a group of college women who performed well in mathematics. They were then randomly assigned to two groups, with one set of women being told that they were being tested to see why men generally do better on math than women, and the other group being told simply that they were part of an experiment on mathematics performance.
The information that men do better in mathematics than women undercut performance drastically. The accuracy of women exposed to the stereotype was reduced from nearly 90 percent in a pretest to about 80 percent after being told men do better in mathematics. Among women not receiving that message, performance actually improved slightly.
The researchers asked the women exposed to the stereotyping message what they were thinking during the tests and many of them reported being distracted by thoughts such as "I thought about how boys are usually better than girls at math so I was trying harder not to make mistakes" and "I was nervous in the last set because I found out that the study is to compare mathematical abilities of guys and girls." Women not exposed to stereotyping had fewer such thoughts of inferiority.
Further tests showed that the verbal portion of the working memory was the portion of the women's mental resources that was most strongly undermined by the anxiety. The researchers showed that women experiencing mathematics anxiety found it more difficult to do problems when they were written out horizontally than when they appeared vertically. Previous findings show that solving horizontal problems relies heavily on verbal resources.
In order to see if mathematics anxiety had any lasting impact on performance in the short term, the researchers again had women solve math problems, with half being told they were part of a test to determine why men generally do better in mathematics than women and the other half being told only that they were being tested for mathematics performance.
They then gave the women a standard memory test involving verbal information and found that the women did less well on that test if they were exposed to the mathematics stereotyping.
"We demonstrated that worries about confirming a negative group stereotype may not only impact performance in the stereotyped domain, but that this impact can spill over onto subsequent, unrelated tasks that depend on the same processing resource the stereotype-related worries consume," Beilock and her colleagues wrote.

Bipolars always go off their meds., told you by numerous people when you are diagnosed in your 20's. You never go off your meds to defeat the stereotype, your kidneys die because you won't go off your meds., turns out you aren't even bipolar.
Moral of story: counter-dependence isn't a good life plan.

No joke: Chicken crossing road blocks traffic
Associated Press
PORTLAND, Ore. — Portland, Oregon, police were told there was a chicken — and it was attempting to cross the road.
In fact, the citizen who called the police non-emergency line on Monday evening reported that the chicken's efforts to cross a road in a north Portland neighborhood were bringing traffic nearly to a standstill.
He assured the dispatcher he was not joking.
The dispatcher chuckled — and asked a clarifying question.
"It's just the one chicken?"
The caller said yes.
Sgt. Pete Simpson says responding officers were unable to locate the chicken.
And so, he notes, police "were unable to determine the chicken's intent."

It's a New Dawn…It's a New Day…
For 365 days I answered a different question. I spent one year discovering myself more than I had my whole life. Every question remains on this blog and I hope that you do revisit each question starting at #1.I have decided from here on out that I am going to let the creative genius out as it comes. I do not believe in forced art...it must come natural. I am 34 years old and still discovering myself. I have moments of great peace and wellness and times of sadness and confusion that boggle my mind and exhaust my body. It is the latter that I have a hard time accepting and sometimes I need a palette to spill all of my thoughts and feelings out to make me feel better. So here I am. As readers I hope you are able to relate and I hope you enjoy the journey.

An estimated 2-million child-slaves work from sunrise to sunset to dig coltan by hand from the soil – and it is traded on the black market for US $400 a pound. – digitaljournal.com
With my feed reader overflowing with thousands of articles to sift through about modern slavery, I've recently turned to Twitter to find the stories that are moving others to speak out. The quote above came from a post cited by Chris Hogg in his twitter stream.
Slavery today, specifically child slavery, is being driven by the same motivation as it always has – profits. Coltan (Columbite-tantalite), it turns out, is ONLY in existence in the Eastern Congo and a small region of Tanzania. It doesn't exist anywhere else. It is used in the production of capacitors.
Every day hundreds of thousands of Congolese child-slaves are forced to crawl into underground mines on their hands and knees to dig for the essential raw material make electronic gadgets like cell phones, iPods, laptop computers, play stations, wireless systems, DVD players, blackberries and pagers possible.
Clearly, I applaud the Dutch labour MP for his desire to see the end of child slave labor in the Congo. And there are alternatives to using the Coltan produced in Central Africa. Australia is also a major producer of Coltan and many electronics companies are now rejecting Coltan, opting to only purchase from legitimate sources. Unfortunately, I think real change will only come from finding an affordable alternative to Coltan. Thankfully, there is a movement to find alternatives to Coltan in capacitor production, including Niobium, multilayer ceramic capacitors and aluminum-polymer capacitors. I have no idea how long these methods will take to make their way into production or what their viability is.
In the meantime, children in the Congo are being abused daily to feed our addiction to ever cheaper technology. The Dutch petition was sent to all of the major multinational firms that produce cell phones. Let's hope they act.

Alarmed by threatening strangers, wife and children of William Reyes leave Maicao.
INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana, June 24 (Compass Direct News) – The wife and children of pastor William Reyes, who was kidnapped last September in Colombia and is still missing, have moved from their home to another city due to threatening strangers presumably linked to his kidnappers.
Compass learned that Idia Miranda Reyes, her son William, 19, and daughters Luz Nelly, 17, and Estefania, 9, suddenly left their home in Maicao in the department (state) of La Guajira two months ago and moved to an undisclosed location in the country.
The Rev. William Reyes disappeared on Sept. 25, 2008, en route to Maicao from the neighboring city of Valledupar. Since March 2008, the pastor of Light and Truth Inter-American Church and active member of the Fraternity of Evangelical Pastors of Maicao, had been receiving extortion threats from illegal armed groups operating in the La Guajira peninsula.
Family members have not heard from Pastor Reyes since, nor have his abductors contacted the family to demand ransom.
Two incidents earlier this year alerted his wife that she and her children were in danger from the kidnappers. On Jan. 15, an unidentified man appeared at the Inter-American Church in Maicao and asked for Idia Miranda Reyes. When he was told she was not there, the man asked for her address and cell phone number, which church workers refused to give him.
Before he left, the man said testily, "It is in [her] best interest to get in touch with me, than for me to have to find her."
Six days later, Luz Nelly Reyes was approached by a stranger on the street (the family believes it was the same man), who told her that if she wanted to see her father again, she should come with him. The girl declined the invitation. When he attempted to grab her by the arm, Luz Nelly fled.
"I have not reported this to police, because I'm afraid," her mother told Compass after the incident. "They could do something to me."
Through sobs she added, "We never conceived of this happening to us. I just wish they would tell us if they have him or not."
Idia Miranda Reyes waited to leave Maicao until Luz Nelly completed her senior year in high school; the 17-year-old graduated on March 28. According to sources, the Inter-American church is contributing a modest living allowance to the Reyes family.
Reyes is not alone in her fears; Colombia suffers the highest incidence of kidnapping in the Western Hemisphere and a homicide rate 11 times greater than in the United States.
Due to general lawlessness, Colombians often face harassment from the same criminals who kidnap or murder loved ones. Violent crime is so common in the country that half of the felonies are not reported to police, and only one in nine makes the newspapers.
Another Maicao kidnapping in February underscores the problem. Armed men abducted a woman from a church just a few blocks from the Light and Truth church – while worship was in progress. The pastor of that church later refused to disclose the victim's identity or discuss the circumstances of her disappearance, citing concerns for the safety of his congregation.
Evangelical Christians are not always passive victims of crime, however. Justapaz, a Mennonite Church-affiliated organization based in Bogotá, and The Commission for Restoration, Life and Peace of the Evangelical Council of Churches of Colombia (CEDECOL) have organized an international prayer and action campaign in response to the Reyes family crisis.
The campaign mobilized concerned citizens to petition the office of Attorney General Dr. Mario Iguarán, asking that authorities conduct a thorough investigation into Pastor Reyes' disappearance and report their findings to Commission Coordinator Ricardo Esquivia and Jenny Neme, director of Justapaz.
"Despite hundreds of letters from church members in the United States, Canada and across Europe, and repeated attempts to get a response from the Colombian Attorney General´s Office, we have yet to receive any information from them regarding progress in the case," said Michael Joseph, who coordinates the Reyes case on behalf of CEDECOL and Justapaz. "We're doing our best to make sure Pastor Reyes' case is not forgotten."
The Reyes family joins other "internal refugees" who live as exiles in their own country. Unchecked political and social violence have forced innocent victims – many of them widows and children – to abruptly abandon homes and careers. They must take up life in crowded, far-off cities in order to protect themselves and their children from further attack.
According to estimates, Colombia now has 3 million internal refugees, the second largest population of displaced persons in the world after Sudan.

Battle Field of Bull Run, July 22.
The Approach of the Enemy – The Battle in the Distance – Ordered Into Action – Discouraging Accounts of our Wounded – Kershaw's Charge up the Hill – Kemper's Alexandria Battery – The Eight Palmetto Regiment to the Rescue – The Rout – Kemper's Escape – Trophies, etc., etc.
After the repulse of the 8th inst., the enemy withdrew towards Centreville, and , except in burying the dead, appeared to be inactive during the 19th and 20th, until about midnight. At that hour, the rumbling of artillery over the stony roads, the barking of dogs, etc., etc., told that vast preparations for the attack of tomorrow were going forward. To the ears of the Kershaw's Detachment, who were thrown out half a mile to the left, and in advance of our centre, Mitchell's Ford, those sounds were quite distinct. At 5 1/2 o'clock a.m., a cannonading, on the right, begun, apparently from the point of attack of the 18th inst. A few minutes later, the firing of heavy guns was heard on the left, also, in the direction of the Stone Bridge. The calibre of the pieces was, evidently, from the sound, greater than that of those used on the 18th, and together with the peculiar whirr of the shells, and stunning detonation of the mortars, gave ample proof that the Northern generals were determined to use every effort to annihilate us that day, the memorable 21st, as they had promised to do on the first fair occasion. Gradually the cannonading on the left increased, whilst that on the left grew less. The post of the picket guard of the 2d Palmetto Regiment was upon a hill overlooking all the country to the north and westward. And from this point, curling up over the tree tops, which hid the battle field, could be seen the smoke, but nothing more. About 10 o'clock there rose a great shout, and a rumor soon came down to us that our boys were driving back the enemy. This seemed to be confirmed by the smoke, which receded to the northwest. The Confederate cavalry, too, were seen galloping in that direction, perhaps to cut up the flying columns of the Yankees. More than an hour passed on, and nothing of the strife is heard, but the roar of ordnance and the rattle of musketry.
Suddenly an order comes, borne, I believe, by Gen. McGowan, for the 2d and 8th Palmetto Regiments to hasten to the assistance of the left wing. Couriers are dispatched to Capt. Perryman, out scouting, and Capt. Rhett, on picket guard, to march across the fields to the left, and join their Regiment, the 2d which is on the march to aid the left wing. This Regiment, to which was attached Kemper's Battery, followed by the 8th, Col. Cash, hurried to the scene of action. It was met along the way by numbers of the wounded, dying and retiring, who declared that the day had gone against us; that Sloan's Regiment, the 4th, was cut to pieces; the Hampton's Legion, coming to the rescue, and the Louisiana Battalion, were annihilated; the Gen. Bee and Col. Hampton were mortally wounded, and Col. Ben. Johnson killed; and that the Confederate forces were out-flanked and routed, and the day lost. This was the unvarying tenor of the words that greeted us from the wounded and dying and the fugitives who met us during the last mile of our approach to the field of battle. To the sharp cry of the officers of the 2d Regiment, "On, men on! these fellows are whipped, and think that every body else is," the troops responded nobly, and closing up their columns, marched rapidly and boldly forward.
The fast flying cannon shot now cut down several of our number before we got sight of the foe. Presently they became visible, with banners insolently flaunting, and driving before them the remains of our shattered forces. But the 2d, undaunted by the sight, ployed column, and, with a shout, charged up the hill at the double quick. The Yankees could not stand the shock, and fell back into a wood on the west of the hill, pouring into us a galling fire. Driven through this wood, they again formed on a brigade of their men in a field beyond, and for half an hour a severe struggle took place between this regiment, with Kemper's Battery attached, unsupported, and an immense force of United States troops. We poured in a steady and deadly fire upon their ranks. While the battle raged, the 8th South Carolina Regiment came up, and Col. Cash, pointing to the enemy, says, "Col. Kershaw, are those the d—-d scoundrels that you wish driven off the field? I'll do it in five minutes, by God!" "Yes, Colonel," says Kershaw, "form on our left, and do it if you can." In a few moments the 8th got close up on the left, and poured in a murderous fire, under which the enemy reeled and broke.
Again they formed on a hill, and new legions covering the hills around rushed to their support, but the terrific fire of Kemper's Battery was too much for them. They reeled again and broke. "Forward, Second Palmetto Regiment!" says Kershaw. "Now is the time!" The Second and Eight now dashed forward, fast but steadily, and the victory was won. Throwing down their arms and abandoning their cannon, the United States troops fled precipitately. The Second and Eight pursued them to the Stone Bridge, about a mile, and there for the first time Kershaw received an order, since leaving the entrenchments. He had retrieved the lost battle and gained the victory of "Stone Bridge" with two regiments and a battery of four pieces.
Now we halted under an order from General Beauregard, not to engage the enemy, should he form again, without reinforcements. Such as could be had were now hurried up. He inspected the division, thus increased, consisting of the 2d and 8th South Carolina Regiments, the shattered remnants of Hampton's Legion, about 150 strong, whom we had rescued (what with the killed, wounded, and those attending them, few were left in the field), and one company – partly of Marylanders, and partly of Crescent Blues of New Orleans. Kemper's Battery had not been able to keep up with us in the flight of the enemy and our rapid pursuit, for want of horses. Ten minutes we halted, until joined by another small regiment – Preston's Virginians, I believe – then moved on in the chase. Two miles further on, the cavalry joined us; but, finding the enemy posted on a hill, with artillery covering the road, we threw out skirmishers, and formed in line of battle. But the Yankees, after firing a few cannon shot and Minnie balls, again fell back. On we went, and Kemper having now overtaken us, we deployed, and allowed him to unlimber and give them two or three good rounds, which completely routed the Yankee column again. Their artillery, which was in rear, now plunged wildly forward upon the wagon train, overturning and jamming them in mad disorder. Sauve qui peut. Devil take the hindmost, became the order of the day, and the setting sun saw the grand army of the North flying for dear life upon wagon and artillery horses cut loose. They left in our hands thirty odd pieces of cannon, many wagons, an immense number of small arms, and plunder of every kind and description. To-day we can hardly recognize the members of our own company, by reason of their changed exterior. New habiliments and accoutrements abound. Truly, these fellows are well provided.
Thus you see that, on the right wing of the enemy, their chief force, the 2d and 8th South Carolina Regiments, assisted by Kemper's Battery, maintained the day, and upheld the ancient honor of the State. As Jeff Davis, at a late hour yesterday, said, in urging forward the Mississippi and Louisiana Regiments, "The 2d and 8th South Carolina Regiments have saved the day, and are now gaining a glorious victory."
During the action, the lion hearted Kershaw received no orders, and saw none of our Generals, but fought it out on his own plan – driving the enemy in immense numbers before him. Too much honor cannot be given to Capt. Kemper. His coolness and presence of mind was unshaken at any moment, and his rapidity and accuracy of fire was astonishing. At one time surrounded and taken prisoner, he owed his escape to his cleverness. As soon as he found resistance useless, he cast his eyes round, and, seeing a regiment of Virginians near, said, pointing to them, "Take me to your Colonel." His captors ignorantly did as he suggested, and actually carried him into the midst of the Virginians before they saw their mistake. In a few moments he was rid of them, and again at the head of his battery, hurling destruction into the ranks of the foe. Kershaw and Kemper both deserve to be made Brigadier-Generals, as this great victory is undoubtedly due to their commands.
Hampton's Legion and Sloan's Regiment displayed the utmost gallantry, but, in the face of superior artillery and great odds, were not sufficiently sustained.
We hear that our troops succeeded in capturing cannon from the enemy's left wing, also, to the amount of ten or twelve pieces. If that be so, we have captured forty odd pieces, amongst which is Sherman's celebrated battery.
The Palmetto Guard have taken a flag, and one or two drums. The Brooks Guards have captured a flag staff and two kettle drums. The other companies have various articles.*
I have written the above in great haste, but the facts are correctly stated. I will give you some other incidents at another time.
Charleston Mercury, 7/29/1861
Contributed by John Hennessy
*Both the Palmetto Guard and the Brooks Guard were companies in the 2nd S. C., and the tone of various parts of the letter seems to indicate a 2nd S. C. perspective. Therefore this correspondence is credited to a member of that regiment.

Today's News: Our Take - Matt Lauer Facing "Harassment" By Viewers Over Ann Curry's Today Departure
When celebrities walk around New York City, it's commonplace for regular folks to shout out greetings. Unfortunately for Matt Lauer, the messages aren't always positive.
More than a few strangers have berated the Today host on the streets of Manhattan, sources at NBC tell TMZ, "screaming at him" and "calling him names" because they blame Lauer for Ann Curry's departure from the morning news show this past summer.
"Matt is 'miserable' over what he believes are hateful and unfair tirades," the source reportedly told TMZ. "Matt says the harassment is constant, with people screaming things like 'You're a bad guy,' and 'You got Ann fired. Does that make you happy?'"
Winter TV preview: Must-see new shows
When Lauer renegotiated his contract earlier this year, one of his stipulations was that Curry be removed as his co-anchor, several outlets, including TMZ, reported. Under the new contract, Lauer is reportedly paid a $25 million salary.
But money can't buy love. Lauer feels "abused" by the viewer backlash and says it's "driving him crazy," according to TMZ.
To make matters worse, Today has steadily slipped in the ratings and fell behind Good Morning America back in April for the first time in 16 years.
