"I got a job!" Do you remember the first time you said that? Maybe you were just a teen and it was a summer job. Maybe you had to work your way through college. Whatever the situation was we all know that having that job meant independence, maturity, and security. It still does. We all need to work. If we don't work we don't eat, as the Bible says. Having a job is vital, not just for our sense of independence, maturity, and security, but because we have families to feed, mortgages to pay, and people who depend on us to care for them. Economically we must bring jobs into our state and county.
I am a member of the bipartisan Jobs Council of the New Mexico Legislature. The Jobs Council set forth initiatives to bring jobs into our state that will make a difference. These initiatives include funding advertising, job training programs, revitalization projects, economic development awards, and technology collaborations. We are doing all we can to incentivize business to come to our state, and to help existing businesses to remain and grow.
As a small business owner I know the struggles of a fluctuating economy. My wife and I have had our share of lean years when prayer was more substantial than our bank account. I understand how important it is to have work. I know what it is feel that security of knowing there is food for your children, and the relief it is to put your head on the pillow knowing you've got to get to work in the morning. As your representative, I will make sure that happens in our county. It's my job.

I know when I was in Japan I wished for a vegetarian survival guide. Being a vegetarian can be hard, especially when your in another country and can't understand the language. Even though English is easier to come by in major cities and tourist spots it can be hard to find vegetarian/vegan food when you go off the beaten track. When I was in Europe and some parts of Asia I still managed to find food okay but I especially found it harder to find food at restaurants and cafes in Japan. Fish being an major part of a Japanese diet I couldn't escape it from being hidden in dishes. Broth, fish flakes, spaghetti sauce, curry- it was everywhere.
After finding myself in a few helpless situations where I ate all my granola bars and instead of enjoying my surrounding I was constantly wasting time trying to find something to eat. It doesn't help that I am a food conscious eater so surviving on breads and rice weren't an option for me. Especially when your on vacation and have the "treat yourself" mentality and are constantly indulging. Sometimes you just need a salad to balance it out.
I realized Japan wasn't as diverse as some countries in the food department, most places were traditional Japanese, so I would have to start being more prepared before my daily excretions.
Having been to Japan twice now I learned some strategies so I wouldn't get myself into the hunger situation again and hopefully help you out to.
Vegetarian Survival Guide Japan
- Get someone from your hostel or hotel to write down that you're a vegetarian/vegan on a note or in a book and carry that with you everywhere. Put it in your wallet and try not to loose it
- Shop at grocery stores and make your own food. That's a pretty basic tip but it does the trick.
Heaven sent donut from 100 yen bakery
- Find a 100 yen bakery! They make for a cheap breakfast or snack. Cheese buns, donuts, ones stuffed with potatoes, all sorts of goodies!
- Ask where ever you are staying's reception if there is any good vegetarian restaurants around and how to get there. They can use their computer and show it to you on a map and usually tell you which train/bus you need to take
- Research vegetarian food from the country and screen shot it on your phone. I was in desperate need for soy milk so I Googled Japanese soy milk and used the image as a reference when shopping. It was extremely helpful since I couldn't make any sense of Kanji.
Take a photo of me! Use it as a reference in stores 😉
Soymilk (coffee flavour) and vitamin drinks!
- Look up vegetarian friendly restaurants around your area or where you will be heading that day. Screenshot the address on Google Maps so you don't have to use you data while trying to find the area
- Learn some Japanese
Some phrases:
I am a vegetarian
Watashi wah bejitariandes
Is there fish?
sakana ga arimasu?
No meat?
mattaku niku nai?
Since there really isn't a word for vegetarian in Japanese some cities won't understand when you use "bejitarian" so instead say
watashi wah niku toh sakana wo taberarimasen
which translates to I don't eat meat or fish
- In supermarkets there is usually cheap vegetable tempura and other vegetable options. You can also find potato crockets (my favourite), kabocha squash pre made (another favourite), mixed vegetable dishes and other vegetarian friendly items in the deli section.
Traditional Monks dinner on Mount Koya
Veggie Tempura from a small restaurant near Dotonburi, Osaka
- Kyoto and Tokyo are easier to find vegetarian dishes as Kyoto is a Buddhist town and Tokyo is an international hub so they cater to more diversity
- If you find yourself at a restaurant with seemingly no vegetarian dishes find a sandwich or burger place and ask for no meat on it and instead avocado. I figured that trick out a little later on and it never seemed to be a problem. The only times where it didn't work is you'll find the more traditional restaurants come with a set menu and you pick from the pictures which one you want. On these dishes you cannot change anything. Even if you just want the veggie tempura but its accompanied with another meat dish you will most likely not be able to only get the veggie tempura. I haven't figured out as to why this is but it does happen
- Find an Indian restaurant. It's a gold mine for food but make sure they don't use beef stock. I was in Kyoto and ordered the only Indian dish at a random restaurant near Gion thinking it would be safe but it immediately solidified and the smell was an overwhelming scent of beef. In Nara my boyfriend and I ordered two curry pizzas and then I remembered the beef broth and quickly changed my order to the four cheese pizza. The curry had been made with beef stock.
Ice cream near the Golden Temple, Kyoto
Treat from random sweet shop in Kyoto
- Desserts are free game! Just watch out for gelatin if that is a problem for you. It always finds its way into random things like protein/nutrition bars or pastries.
Hopefully these tips help and you are more prepared on your trip to Japan! What do you think about being a vegetarian in Japan? Did you find it easy? Or do you know of any good vegetarian restaurants? Sharing is caring!

Brussels was a whirlwind. We listened to presentations from Senior Policy Advisors to NATO on Monday — very interesting.
One of the things we've been hearing over and over is that the European Union has "enlargement fatigue" from growing to 27 member nations so rapidly. One nation can stymie legislation, and each takes rotating turns as head of the EU. Layer upon layer of bureaucracy and slow government. It's brought great changes and consistency to the continent, but its expansion is a challenge.
I asked the NATO representative if he found the same to be true for NATO, which has now expanded to 26 countries (!). He said actually the opposite is true — the more countries the better. More countries means more funding for NATO and also expanded military security.
We also met with the head of Danish Industries, a lobbying group representing 11,000 Danish companies before various levels of government. Interestingly, she argued that immigration is absolutely essential for the future of Europe, due to the declining birthrate and aging population.
Four of us Fellows flew to Lubeck, Germany today where we'll be until Monday. We flew from Brussels to Hamburg, then our host, Meggie, picked us up and drove us to Lubeck, an hour's drive. The scenery en route was beautiful — rolling green hills with tall trees girding the road, with lots of farms and small villages.
Today, I'm visiting Lubeck's state-of-the-art waste treatment facility. In addition to cleaning waste, they also create refuse-derived fuel, which is used to generate electricity.

How to choose your new stove?
Before you buy your new stove, you may want to consider the following:
- Do you want a stove in classic design in cast iron?
- Modern design in sheet iron?
- What is the distance to flammable materials?
- How many square meters and how many rooms, do the stove need to arm up?
- Is the stove the primary heating source or is there also an oil-fired burner or electric heating systems?
The most important issue is weather the stove can be installed where you want to place it. There you have to pay attention to the size of the stove and the distance to flammable materials.
Which size?
It is important to find the right size of the stove, so that you are able to get the optimal effect from it. Be careful not to buy your stove too big because the heat can get to powerfull. The stoves nominal effect are stated in kilowatt(kW). A roule of thumb is that 1 kW ia able to warm up 10 square meters, if the house is poorly isolated. If the house has a good isolation then 1 kW is able to warm up 20 square meters. If you use long pieces of wood and stoke the fire with lang intervals, you can typically get the stove to use 50% of the nominal effect. If you use several small pieces of wood and stoke the stove with short intervals, you can increase the effect from the stove a little.
Which type?
There are 2 different kinds of stoves: convection stoves and radiant heat stoves. Convection stoves are the new generation of stoves. The stove warm up the air and send it around the room. It gives a pleasant and homogeneous temperature overall. The radiant heat stove is known for centuries. The heat is concentrated around the stove. The air around the stove gets very hot and drops in temperature the furter away you get from the stove. Convection stoves, like the ones from Aduro, can typically be placed closer to flammable materials than radiant stoves.

Offended & I don't want to see that!
Monday, June 28, 2010
Busy Sunday
So off to the grocery store to buy food. When I returned, the alarm had gone off again. Upon some investigating it was discovered that one of the donkeys had broke the water line next to the stalls. And the front pasture was, well, wet. So, that is where all the water was going!
Thank goodness a shut off valve was installed by the stalls to turn off the water there. Now that meant the horses and donkeys cannot go into the stalls at night since there is no water now. Okay, so everyone is now in both front and back pastures for awhile. Thank goodness the repairing of the pipe is easy.
As I mentioned before, summer is quickly arriving as you can see by the looks of the back pasture. The green is very sparse. The brown has taken over. And there is no irrigation here. Fire season will be in effect July 1st. Another reason I do not like summer. Too hot and wildfires.

A somewhat of a closeup of the red puffy ball things on the tree.
Now that the temps are rising it is time to get out the small fan for the chicken house and clean it up. Today it is suppose to get mid 80's. Tomorrow low to mid 90's. Yuk!!! I know, some of you think that our temps aren't hot, but anything above 72 degrees is too hot for me. Ha Ha As for the outside chores, well, I make sure they are done early in the morning.
Until next time............................

I believe in.....
But, as a few years went by a more darker presence came around. I tried to get rid of it, but nothing seemed to work. Then one day I came home from work, it was still light out, my daughters were at a friends house, so no one was in the house except for my dog. As I walked inside from the back part of the house down the hallway I stopped halfway because there was a small shadow figure standing there staring at me from the living room area ( you could see from the hallway to the living room). The next thing I knew that shadow figure zipped to the left towards the other end of the living room. Thinking someone was in the house I took off after it, but there was no one. And my dog was visibly frightened under the kitchen table. He was never frightened with the old lady spirit. He would follow her around as if she belonged to this world.
Well, that was the end of that. My kids, dog and myself moved out that weekend. Put the place on the market and that was that. That old house has since been torn down. I have no idea who or what that shadow figure was.
That is just one of the many incidences I have had.
I know, a lot of people do not believe in the spirit world. So, I apologize to the readers who are offended by this post and hope not to lose you as followers.
This was taken yesterday afternoon. After the craziness of the animals here this is what I wanted to do to. Honey Dog was sound asleep.

It's in the air and its contagious!
Right after I fed the goats their grain, they started running after me looking for their breakfast, forgetting that I had just fed them and the grain was still in the same place I had just put it. So had to walk back and show them where their breakfast was.
There are three donkeys who get stalled every night. And every morning they get turned out. This morning even they weren't immune to whatever is in the air. I opened the stall gates and they just couldn't figure out how to come out.
And then Honey Dog all of a sudden had hearing loss when I whistled for her. She always goes with me when I am outside and if I don't see her, I give a quick whistle and she comes running. Well not today. I had to go looking for her and found her inside the chicken house eating chicken poo!

Growing up and a surprise in the pasture
Well, today they brought the kids! My goodness how they have grown.
And this morning my youngest daughter informs me that there is a rabbit in the front pasture. Really? A rabbit? Yup, sure enough there was a rabbit by the horse stalls.
I have not a clue where the bunny came from but if he/she is going to hang around, well, I guess I'll have to make sure there is food available.
Sunday, June 20, 2010
Morning feeding
Chickens fed and watered. Honey Dog always accompanies on the morning feedings.
We need to go get the older chickens away from the neighbors fence and shoo them back towards the barn. It amazes me how quickly they can get across the property when they want to.
Pics are a bit out of line. We have already started feeding and are out in the back pasture. Goats have to get their grain.
Everyone now has their breakfast. Time to go back into the house and feed the inside cats and get another cup of coffee.
Until next time........................
Friday, June 18, 2010
Look who I found in.........
She started to walk inside the chicken house but some of the hens were in there and by their squawking I don't think they wanted a visitor in there.
Since the weather has started to get warmer, the flies are beginning to emerge. So the sticky fly paper went up.
I finally convinced Doughnut that being in there was not an option. Out she went.
But she had to take a souvenir with her. She got some of the fly paper stuck in her forelock and ear. After a few tries to remove the sticky fly paper, she was paper free although some of her forelock came with it.
Thursday, June 17, 2010
Someone who needs a bath!
However the other side of her is downright filthy! She rolled in who knows what! Ugh!!! Well, she is off the hook getting a bath until the temps warm up just a bit more.
Tuesday, June 15, 2010
Are you.........
As long as I can remember there is something that never, ever goes on any table.

You can stop outdoor bamboo fencing from degrading due to weathering, but it will take a little time. When installing bamboo fencing, it's important not to use bamboo poles for the fence posts. Bamboo poles used for posts that you pound into the ground absorb moisture and are prone to bug infestations. Both water and bugs will quickly rot the posts.
Wire split bamboo fencing to existing fencing such as chain-link fencing. The bottoms of the bamboo strips should not touch the ground.
Leave the bamboo fencing to weather from six months to a year. The purpose of this is so the tough outer skin of the bamboo weathers, which will make it more porous. Watch for the bamboo to turn grey.
Coat the grey bamboo with an exterior waterproof sealant. Seal both sides of the bamboo and the top and bottom ends to deter absorption of water and bug infestations.
Most recent
- If you don't want to wait the six months to a year for the bamboo to weather, you can sand the tough outer surface of the bamboo and then stain, varnish or water seal. The sanded bamboo surface will be able to accept finishes and sealants.
- Before waterproofing the split bamboo, consider staining it with an oil-based stain or a coloured varnish.

Places To Have Coffee That Aren't Starbucks, Episode I: Ninong's Pastry & Coffee
One taste of the coffee here lets you know you're not at the mermaid chain; there's none of the over-roasted, over-aggressive notes, and no baseball-bat-to-the-head of caffeine. The coffee just treats you nicely, which is all I want from the world on most mornings.
Amid the expected coffeehouse offerings — espressos, croissants, and the like — you can find several uniquely Filipino/uniquely Ninong's offerings. There's the create-a-cupcake, with your choice of sprinkles, to delight the kiddies. Then there's the empanadas, including longanisa, a Filipino sausage. Ninong's is also a full-service bakery with a full breakfast and lunch menu, and cute little breakfast places is something GH is definitely in short supply of.
Among the shop's amusing traits is its collection of specialty teas, each promised to cure a host of ailments: one variety is touted as a "natural detoxifier and remedy for liver problems and diabetes," another is "ideal for diabetics and sufferers of kidney problems," and a third variety, called Banaba, allegedly "acts as an antihistamine, antipyretic, antitussive, expectorant, and analgesic in one." I have no idea what "antipyretic" means, so I'm going to assume that this tea prevents you from catching on fire, which I'm sure must be a good thing.
The only thing that makes me occasionally wish I was elsewhere when I'm tucked into a cozy corner of Ninong's with a milky cappuccino is the god-awful soft rock piped into the speakers. Even the best coffee in the universe wouldn't be enough to make me pleased about being subjected to both Phil Collins and Celine Dion in a single sitting, but then again, the soothing effects of a butter-soaked chocolate croissant do a lot to mitigate the damage.
Ninong's other slightly tacky touches, such as Costco-sized plastic bottles of flavored non-dairy creamer poised next to the napkins and stirrers as opposed to actual half-and-half only heighten the feeling that it's more like visiting Grandma's house than patronizing a corporate chain, and of course, "ninong" is Tagalog for "godfather" — a name which perfectly suits the vibe of this family-owned shop. Simply put, the small imperfections are a big part of the charm, and they're well worth overlooking given that Granada Hills so desperately needs more independent places like Ninong's. If warmth, uniqueness, and local color are your cup of tea, drop by.

Good thing to know. Thanks for that info. One of my biggest complaints about the lack of restaurants in Granada Hills is that we have no place to get a good breakfast. I would have passed this place up not knowing they had a breakfast menu.ReplyDelete

The better half, the pooch, and I went there yesterday; nice place. They also have what passes for sidewalk dining - the view of White Oak and Chatsworth isn't exactly Montparnasse and Rennes, but not a bad spot for enjoying a cup of joe...ReplyDelete

Londonderry air / Danny boy
This is perhaps one of the most famous of all irish airs (though listed here as a reel!). It´s also known as Danny Boy. Though perhap considered a hackneyed piece today I personally like Londonderry air very much. I´ve added chord for those of you who the play guitar.
Londonderry air / Danny Boy
The Air and the song are different, played as a tune its the Derry Air, an Englishman then adapted the tune to a set of Lyrics he wrote.
The air was collected by Jane Ross of Limavady, County Derry, who heard it played by an itinerant piper.
The descendents of blind fiddler Jimmy McCurry assert that he is the musician from whom she transcribed the tune but there is no historical evidence to support this speculation.
The most popular lyrics for the tune are "Danny Boy" ("Oh Danny Boy, the pipes, the pipes are calling") written by the English lawyer, Frederick Edward Weatherly, in 1910 and set to the tune in 1913. While Weatherly intended the song as a parting message from a woman to a man, others have interpreted the parting in the song as that between a parent or grandparent and a son or grandson going off to war. The song has sometimes been taken as a call to arms, or a rebel song, sometimes with the addition of additional verses of a more military nature.
Long live Barry Mcguigan !
Did you know that https://thesession.org/ is the #1 hit if you put "cheesy irish songs" into Google?
This is actually a much, much nicer tune played with elegant simplicity than it ever is when sung as a sickly sentimental song.
That has got to be the best version I have every heard. It also goes to show, put anyone in the right jumper and they'll look like a Clancy!
@ Red Menace
"snobby irish musicians" works just as well, just so you know.
Ben Webster tenor saxophonist's version is fabulous

This is my 8th post in a Lenten series on depression and Monica A. Coleman's book Not Alone.
Perhaps because I've tried to hide my depression for so many years, I have never thought of depression and mental illness as a justice issue. This is even more surprising to me because one of the ways I began to battle depression early in my adulthood was becoming an activist. Peace, economic justice, environmental issues, and human rights topped my list. Activism wasn't only something that reflected my politics and my religious beliefs, it was also a type of therapy.
I'm grateful to Monica A. Coleman for pointing out that people suffering from depression are an oppressed and marginalized in our culture. She says:
"People who live with depressive conditions experience a level of marginalization in today's society. We're called crazy. We're hard pressed to get health insurance that actually meets our needs. We're subject to sermons that suggest that greater faith would cure our depression (something I've never heard anyone say about diabetes or heart disease). We're negatively judged in most workplaces. We're told that a more positive outlook on life should make us happy inside and out.
Okay. It's not war. It's not torture. There are far worse things to be experienced— especially in developing and war-torn countries. Nevertheless, marginalization is still part of the daily experience of people who live with depressive conditions. And far too infrequently are we reminded that God loves us just as we are. And until we can feel that, someone else will stand with us and walk with us."
Coleman, Monica A. (2012-08-24). Not Alone: Reflections on Faith and Depression (p. 81). Inner Prizes, Inc.. Kindle Edition.
Amen. During the past year I was obviously depressed and like depression can do, it certainly affected not only my performance but my attitude and appearance. I was told on more than one occasion by a supervisor that "leaders should always smile.". Bullshit. Leaders sometimes cry and get angry and have no clue what to do next. Leaders should always be authentic. Leaders should create shame free zones. Leaders should make it OK to struggle. Don't get me wrong, I understand the need for leaders , especially ministers and other helpers to not present a front of doom and gloom and catastrophic foreboding. There's a need to be able to carry on and encourage others. But there has to be room for the leader to be down, need help, and be honest about it.
I've been a student of liberation theology for over 20 years now and have tried to live my life through a lens of liberation, believing God takes sides: the side of the weak vs. the strong, the side of the powerless against the powerful, and the oppressed against the oppressor. I know that our existence is complicated and we can be both oppressors in one sense and oppressed ourselves in another sense at the same time. I also know and believe that any spiritual way of life is also a political one. Not in the sense of voting for a particular party (although that is influenced as well), but of working for justice and freedom and fairness through the political process and taking the sides of people and groups who do against those who do not. Working for mental health awareness and advocating for those with depression is a religious and political act. Coleman says:
"It's a political act to stand with people who are suffering. It's a political act to hold the hand of someone you may not understand— while they are irritable, morose, negative, and weeping for no apparent reason. It's a political act to advocate for the things that would actually improve the lives of people with depressive conditions: universal health care, sufficient paid leaves from work, health coverage for preventative and non-pharmaceutical care. It's a political act to speak out against one's leaders and employers when they make prejudiced comments. It's a political act to question the parts of oneself that say and do things that trivialize the realities of people who live with mental health challenges. Liberation theology says that these are political acts, but they are also deeply religious ones.
Coleman, Monica A. (2012-08-24). Not Alone: Reflections on Faith and Depression (p. 81). Inner Prizes, Inc.. Kindle Edition.
What are some ways we can stand together in solidarity around depression and mental illness? Coleman offers the following:
- Participate in your local NAMI Walks.
- Give the resources of Mental Health Ministries to your local faith leader.
- Preach about mental health during Mental Health Awareness Week (the first week in October).
- Financially support NAMI, DBSA, or NMHA.
- Challenge your religious leaders when they suggest that depression results from a lack of faith.
- Stand by your friends who live with depression even when they don't call back, haven't smiled in awhile, and can only think of what's wrong in the world.
- Make phone calls to health insurance agencies and doctors on behalf of a friend caught in an unhelpful medical system.
Reflection questions from Not Alone:
How does pain change you?
When the pain of depression hits me I become a recluse and I become anxious and scared. I no longer trust myself or the world. I become convinced that I am worthless, that I can't handle life, that in a very real sense I have failed as a human being. It's a little like this: What kind of person can't get out of bed and what kind of person hasn't established a successful career, and what kind of person is this lonely and has so few friends. I know not all of this true, but that's the roller coaster. I don't have a train of though, I have a roller coaster of thought when I am depressed and it makes it worse.
Who can walk with you when you don't recognize yourself?
When I get depressed it's not so much a question of who can walk with me, but who I allow to walk with me. When I need help the most is the time I usually feel most ashamed for actually needing help and this has prevented me from asking for help and it has prevented me from allowing others who notice something is wrong to help.
When I am able to let people help, I turn to a team. I am almost always regularly seeing a therapist. I remember being dumbfounded a couple of years ago when a therapist I was seeing told me he didn't think I needed to come regularly any more. I had worked through a difficult work situation, had come to have a great understanding of my anger and my responses in difficult systems at work and in my family. I couldn't believe it. I have for so long considered myself to need therapy in order to function. I have depression, I am mentally ill, I must see a therapist. It's a requirement or something. No, it isn't. That was a wonderful to lesson to learn.
I usually see a spiritual director. In fact, I credit the work I did with my spiritual director while training to be a spiritual director myself with most of the breakthroughs I have had in claiming and naming and actually liking myself more just the way I am, depression and all. I am fortunate that I have a number of close friends who I can and do tell everything, even the depression and its ugliness. They are a good group and different ones will at times to congratulate me for bravery, encourage me to keep going, just listen while I talk and cry, As an example, when I started this series of blog posts, one of my oldest and dearest friends from my college days, saw the initial posting and got a hold of me. He told me to hang in there, and invited me to dinner and a Bruins game. I have another friend who checks in with me once or twice a week via video chat and we hold each other accountable to our prayer practices and listen to each other talk about whatever difficulties or joys life has brought since last time and where God is in it all, even if God is absent. Another good friend and I get dinner once or twice a month and check in by phone regularly. I have started to call these friends and other "my people" and there are more of them than I admit to in the depths of depression. The reality is I have more than my share of people who hold me up and keep me going and I am beyond grateful for the blessing that is each one of them. Together, they've walked many, many miles with me and have enabled me to continue walking through their support and encouragement.

Status Of Women in Hindu Society
The position of women in society is always an index of the greatness of its religion and culture. A woman has always been given a much higher status and position in Hinduism than in any other religion.
Women so inclined could avail themselves of the highest learning and there were many female seers and philosophers. In the ancient times Gargi, wife of Mandanamishra, was appointed as judge because of her superior erudition and spiritual attainments. Warrior queens like Kaikeye helped their husbands on the battlefields.
Women were not married till they were in their late teens, sometimes even later. They could choose their own husbands and intermarriages were common. Polygamy existed in some societies but mostly amongst princes who contracted several marriages with daughters of neighbouring rulers for political reasons.
A woman was supposed to be the manifestation of Goddess/Shakti and the male (Shaktiman) was supposed to be incomplete without the female (Shakti) with him, whether he was a god or a human being. Each male deity of the Divine Trinity has his female counterpart; Saraswati (learning), Lakshmi (wealth) and Parvati (power). The rituals, especially auspicious ones, are incomplete when performed by a man without his wife co-participating. Dishonour to women was tantamount to dishonour of the Almighty. Wife or mother commanded more honour and reverence than husband or father.
With the onslaught of the foreign invasions and the subsequent rigidity of the caste system, Hindu women lost their independence and became objects requiring male protection. In the process they lost the opportunities they earlier had of acquiring knowledge and learning.
Starting from the early nineteenth century there arose a new upsurge of intellectual searching and re-evaluation of our ancient past with several reformers spreading the message of the need for purifying Hinduism of its excessive rites, rituals and orthodoxy and the heaping of inequalities on women. Some of the reformers of the time were Ram-mohan Roy, Ishwar Chandra Vidyasagar, Swami Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi.
Women in modern Indian society have full freedom and equality including the right of inheritance.

The description of the history of Indian woman in Indian socity is concise and accurate upto to the point of the intoduction of caste system. The prevaling Caste system in the society is one of the main factors in preventing progress among the cross section of the scoiety and in perticular to women. The issues of child marriages, dowry, violence against women, arranged marrieges, lack of participation in family planning, powerless in making big decisions within the family, unable to get out of failed marriages etc. has some legal remedies, however, unless the society changes to make women equal and abolish caste system these problems will exist for a very long time.

This is ridiculous...of course in Hinduism as in the majority of civilizations women were viewed as inferior, lower, and with almost no rights.
Female infanticide was commonly practiced and still is today.
Hindu and Buddhist scriptures make it clear that women are lower, their role is to be a servant.

Igor Volsky has an incredible story at Think Progress.
Volsky uncovered a Texas Tea Party congressman blaming the Aurora shooting on 'attacks on Christianity', furthermore citing 'unreleased' DoD suicide statistics pointing to atheists killing themselves.
Lawmakers from both sides of the aisle have expressed their sympathies for the victims in Friday morning's shooting in Aurora, Colorado, but at least one Republican lawmaker is using the tragedy to discuss the alleged war on Christianity.
During an appearance on The Heritage Foundation's Istook Live, Tea Party Congressman Louie Gohmert (R-TX), a former judge, began talking about "ongoing attacks on Christian-Judeo beliefs" when asked about Aurora shootings. Later, in the program he seemed to blame atheists for violence:
ERNEST ISTOOK (HOST): What was your experience as a judge, when you're on the bench, this is Congressman Luie Gohmert, when you're on the bench, what was your experience with people who had mental health issues that were involved in crimes of violence?
GOHMERT: Well, it's always a problem and there are some people who require medication … But you know, I might mention something else that hadn't been public yet. Most of us that follow the military, love the military know that we have had an extraordinary increase in suicide rates in the military and it's just heartbreaking … There was a study commissioned, 6,000 personal of index profiles and what they found, and I don't 'know if they'll make it public…but all of the people who have committed suicide within their two percent studied, were part of their 2 percent most atheistic members of the military. We've lost our faith.*Read the rest at Think Progress.*
Frankly I have little to add right now, other than condolences to the victims and their families, and shock and disappointment towards Congressman Gohmert. I'll be submitting FOIA shortly, that's for damn sure. This is disgraceful.
Gohmert is an opportunist of the worst kind.
On my Facebook wall, Louis Joon quipped:
"Just come back with EU stats. More atheists, guns are illegal. 500 million population, about 300 gun deaths a year."

I just upgraded to 12.04 through Upgrade Manager and the system is now unusable (after a fresh install of 11.10 had been working perfectly for 4 months.) When I log in, the icons on the Unity menu do not load. When I open the Unity menu using the Windows key, I can search and see results but again the icons do not appear. The top bar only displays my user name and the other icons appear only as 'Xs'. Most importantly, I cannot move the pointer using my trackpad or wireless USB mouse. The window switching menu does not appear when I press Ctrl+Shift so I have no way to get into the terminal to try any troubleshooting. I realize 12.04 just came out today but has anyone else experienced problems like this?

What would you do if an online profile about you was full of errors? Many people access these profiles -- employers, clients, landlords -- even creditors. If the information were significantly inaccurate it could seriously impact your life, couldn't it?
Using a mechanic's or materialman's lien to ensure you are paid
If you're a contractor, subcontractor or material supplier involved in construction projects in New York, you've probably filed a mechanic's or materialman's lien against a property when a contractor hasn't paid you for your work or materials. It's one of your most efficient and effective ways of obtaining payment, but it's not foolproof. If you don't file a lien properly and act within designated time limits, you could lose your right to use this valuable collections tool.

This information was researched and crosschecked as best one can do given the ancient time frames.The reference to historical events is to better understand the circumstances that precipitated the family name de Mitton and Ralph the Red's legacy to Mitton family descendants. It also reveals an overlooked Clitheroe post Norman history in which the de Mittons were a founding family. The families descendants played an important role in the local history for centuries. It made for an interesting story to research and hopefully to the reader as well.
Clitheroe Library above; funded by Andrew Carnegie and where the author did research.
Although there is certainty about the de Mitton pedigree from 1102 until 1377 from documentation in the "Coucher Book of Whalley", there is a paternal line gap between 1377 and 1538 of de Mitton father to son identifications.There are lots of de Mittons recorded in this very limited geographic (25 sq. mile) area, just no specific genealogy record of who is whose father. However, nothing to suggest the Mittons identified around Clitheroe in the Court Rolls or the proximate Craven area locations during those years until the Bishops rolls beginning in 1538 are not of the same legacy bloodline of the Norman grantee Ralph the Red of present day Great Mitton.
The Mittons of the Clitheroe – Craven area remained there for 700 years until their migrations to Canada and other places. They have been documented in these areas (if not diocese) of England for centuries (they must have liked the neighborhood). I have identified them as first the Norman de Mittons and then Craven Mittons during those centuries.
There exists on a Mitton website an excellent family tree of various Mitton lines back to about 1723, the birth date of "Squire" Joseph Mitton. Joseph's ancestry is the best axiom point to connect pedigrees of various descendant Canadian-US Mittons to their ancient "roots" progenitor ancestor Ralph the Red.That pedigree is substantiated by a primary document written by Edmund Mitton in 1906 that traces his Canadian ancestry to Joesph Mitton from the Craven area.
From Squire Joseph Mitton 1723-92 I have an authentic father-to-father pedigree line back to the mid 1500s when the Bishops' Rolls began recording births, marriages and deaths. It was Squire Mittons sons and grandsons (identified by Edmund Mitton) that emigrated to Canada in the 19th century and connect the North American descendants of the Mitton family to Great Mitton itself and Ralph the Red. The earliest de Mitton genealogy records come from the Coucher book of Whalley recorded by the early13th century abbots of Whalley Abby. This local Norman family genealogy's from the mid-12th century until the late 14th century and has been relied on by many past researchers. Other research findings have the genealogies of the de Lacy`s (the de Mitton precursor family) back to the early 11th century in Normandy, two generations before the Conquest.
Bottom line
If you run across a Mitton that can trace back their more recent ancestry to that of Squire Joseph Mitton (1723-93) buried at Horton in Ribblesdale, Lancashire, then you most likely share a common ancestor; Radulphus le Rous de Mitton.
Bruce Floyd Mitton (1948- DOD still pending).

For those interested, research can be found at the Mormon "Family Search". That information includes genealogies as well as sources from other researchers confirming material I have found. The Mormons have various family research centers throughout the United States and under "Family Ancestry" on the web. The 1982 edition of Jack Knowles' "The Mittons of Craven" was located at the British Library and is a meticulous researched genealogy. The earliest Mitton genealogy comes from the "Coucher Book of Whalley". Many de Mittons are recorded in the "Clitheroe Court Rolls" of the 13th to 16th century. The Canadian – US lines from Joseph "Squire" Mitton 1723-1792 to the authors immediate contemporary family is from the 1906 primary document of Edmund Mitton of Ridgetown. Other research came from the Internet. "Web" reference is on file as to web sites where sources and information was found and are included when appropriate in this site.

DP World Yarimca Open for Business
DP World Yarimca, one of the biggest container terminals in Turkey, has been officially opened for business by the President of the Republic of Turkey, Recep Tayyip Erdogan, the global marine terminal operator DP World said.
The new container terminal, built in Kocaeli city, Körfez district, can handle up to 1.3 million containers covering 460,000 square metres.
The facility enhances Turkey's connectivity with Europe and Asia and enables trade from the heartland of its most industrialised region, Izmit Bay, the company said.
DP World Yarimca is the first infrastructure project in Izmit Bay to be run by an international operator, and the first in the country to use remote controlled gantry cranes with automated gate operations featuring a vehicle appointment system for faster processing.
It also features fast scanner x-ray machines that can scan 120 containers every hour, DP World said.
The container terminal has two main berths of 465 metres and 430 metres in length that can accommodate two vessels at the same time, six ship-to-shore gantry cranes and 18 electrical RTGs (Rubber Tire Gantry Cranes) used for container stacking and weighing.
In 2015, total trade between Turkey and Dubai reached AED 25.26 billion (USD 6.8 billion).
The imports between the two countries were at AED 14.6 billion, while exports were reported at AED 7.9 billion and re-exports hit AED 2.77 billion.

What's happening to me?
It may not be quite Alexander Technique but then again it is?
I've done things over the last couple of weeks that I haven't done willingly for over two decades, that's quite a long time and for some reading this you may have just been your mothers dream when I stopped doing these things. I didn't know at the time but when I received a letter from the court my anxiety shot up to full power, this was the start of my divorce. With anxiety I became asthmatic and I guess depressed as well. I manned up to the anxiety and depression and fought on but I could escape my breathing, I could go anywhere without my trusty inhaler. Looking back I wasn't in a very good state.
Then I accidentally found an Alexander Technique Teacher or perhaps the teacher found me or I was ready to listen and learn. I really don't know how it happened but it happened.
I believe I now have anxiety, depression and asthma under control by how and what I think about. Thoughts of being in balance with time and space are the keys for me to release my anxiety and depression however some things may remain hidden, these are the things that you and I just don't want to do due to some irrational fear.
My fear is criticism, I felt I got a lot of criticism when I was a child, I felt I wasn't good enough, anything I did I thought I was told I could do better, I'm sure these were supportive and constructive comments, however I received them as criticism and I wasn't good enough. Through this I created a strategy of doing 95% really well and knowing what 5% I didn't do. Then I was ready when the criticism came as I had a retort for the 5%, I had a good answer why I hadn't done it, it wasn't the real answer, it was a staged and planned answer. Pretty cunning ah. Win, win, I did things to my satisfaction and other could criticise.
However the habit of not fully completing, whilst doesn't really matter for say 95% of the things that you and I do, there are 5% of things that only 100% is good enough. I spoke to someone recently about this, it was the right time, place and person for me. It was a revelation just explaining this lifelong strategy, talking about it made it childish, it was a childish plan after all. It is now a redundant plan. This could not have happened without me being honest with myself to tell my story to someone and also having another plan ready. My new plan is being honest with myself, making conscious decisions and being content that I may make mistakes. This new plan has certainly shifted things, I'm doing things that I've put off for a generation!
What are you putting off for another day?

To replace the cold drink with a hot one, here is a bit of an afternoon-delight for those "it gets dark too early" teas in the afternoon. Before we rush the girl from one dance lesson to another, when there is time to sit and relax. I throw some fruit at them too, but really, the tea is about the cake. It was not quite at room temperature when I spread on the light frosting. Normally it is not advisable to frost a warm cake, but there is a small window to serve a still slightly warm cake with the frosting. Of course, you can always slice the cake and spread the frosting individually. To literally brandy out, I added some brandy extract to the cake as well as to the frosting. Swoon... this is how I get my alcohol intake without reacting. Is it any wonder I eat to drink? Ha!
Brandy Yogurt Cake
Brandy Yogurt Cake
2-1/2 cups flour
3 tsp baking powder

- Line a 9X13 inch cake pan with parchment paper.
- In a bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder and salt.
- In another bowl, beat the yogurt, sugar, eggs, vanilla extract, brandy extract and brandy on medium speed until well combined.
- Add the dry ingredients and stir to combine.
- With a rubber spatula, fold the vegetable oil into the batter and fully incorporate.
- Pour the batter into the prepared pan and bake until the cake tester comes out clean.
- Meanwhile beat the icing ingredients smooth and fluffy.
- Place the cake pan on a wire rack to cool.
- When the cake is almost cool to the touch, spread on the frosting, slice and enjoy.

Collin Douma, the real Johnny Cash of social media, started this train of thought rolling with a worthy request. He is a great guy and his sister is doing something cool. Check it out!
I explored memetic branding and altruism in this post over at www.memeticbrand.com.
But the implications of signal of intention are not limited to the branding of a corporation and/or product or service in this era of broadband empowered individuals.
Adoption of Social Capital Value Add ushers in the possibility of new motives for corporate social responsibility. Not only will the corporation be asked to be more accountable for its actions, perhaps the corporation can be encouraged to invest in ways for its social connections – consumers, suppliers, employees, investors, owners, analysts and value added resellers, etc – to move beyond feel-good CSR tactics towards a relationship in which the opportunity is seized by each forging identities based upon greater social contribution.
As I have noted before, there are implications throughout the corporate ecosystem.
"Clarity of shared purpose and principle", "mission statement" (which is a term that has been around for a while), community values … there are many ways of describing the need for self-organisation through unity of purpose that is characteristic of the era that we live in.
Dee Hock, former CEO of Visa has elaborated the vision of Chaordic Organizations which I think is aligned with this view in his book One From Many. I have not read the book but I did check out this outline. (thanks to John Ringland for bringing this reference to us).
