Before the Committee on the Public Lands
House of Representatives
(In the Century for August, 1908, in an editorial article, "A high price to pay for water", attention was called to the grant last May by the present administration to the city of San Francisco of extensive portions of the great Yosemite National Park for use as a water supply. The agreement between the city authorities and the Government provided, among other conditions, that the-voters for San Francisco should accept the grant by a two-thirds vote; that before the valley is utilized the resources of Lake Eleanor, to the north of it and also within the park, shall first have been used and found insufficient, and that the city shall acquire all private titles within the allotted territory, which it is now engaged in doing. The acceptance of the grant was opposed on the ground that other sufficient source are available and because of the great expense of construction. The vote of the city was taken November 12, and resulted in a majority of 6 to 1 in favor of accepting the grant. We can not but feel that an unfortunate precedent has been established in the diversion of a large part of the park -- with the watersheds, nearly half of it from the use of the whole public to the service of a city. It is almost as though the grant of a water-power privilege at Niagara should shut out the public from the enjoyment of the wonderful cataract.
The few photographs here shown and Mr. Muir's brief description will serve to suggest to the reader the great beauty of the valley. -- The Editor)
The fame of the Merced Yosemite has spread far and wide, while Hetch Hetchy, the Tuolumne Yosemite, has until recently remained comparatively unknown, notwithstanding it is a wonderfully exact counterpart of the famous valley. As the Merced flows in tranquil beauty through Yosemite, so does the Tuolumne through Hetch Hetchy. The floor of Yosemite is about 4,000 feet above the sea, and that of Hetch Hetchy about 3,700 while in both the walls are of gray granite, very high, and rise precipitously out of flowery gardens and groves. Furthermore the two wonderful valleys occupy the same relative positions on the flank of the Sierra, were formed by the same forces in the same kind of granite, and have similar waterfalls, sculpture, and vegetation. Hetch Hetchy lies in a northwesterly direction from Yosemite at a distance of about 18 miles, and is now easily accessible by a trail and wagon road from the Big Oak Flat road at Sequoia.
The most strikingly picturesque rock in the valley is a majestic pyramid over 2,000 feet in height, which is called by the Indians "Kolana." It is the outermost of a group like the Cathedral Rocks of Yosemite and occupies the same relative position on the south wall. Facing Kolana on the north side of the valley there is a massive sheer rock like the Yosemite El Capitan, about 1,900 feet high, and over its brow flows a stream that makes the most beautiful fall I have ever seen. The Indian name for it is Tueeulala. From the brow of the cliff it is free in the air for a thousand feet, then strikes on an earthquake talus and is broken up into a ragged network of cascades. It is in full bloom in June and usually vanished toward the end of summer. The Yosemite Bridal Veil is the only fall I know with which it may fairly be compared, but it excels even that wonderful fall in airy swaying grace of motion and soothing repose. Looking across the valley in the spring, when the snow is melting fast, Tueeulala is seen in all her glory burning in white sun fire in every fiber. Approaching the brink of the rock her waters flow swiftly, and in their first arching leap into the air a little hurried eagerness appears; but this eagerness is speedily hushed in sublime repose, and their tranquil progress to the base of the cliff is like that of downy feathers in a still room. The various fabrics into which her waters are woven are brought to view with marvelous distinctness by the instreaming sunshine. They sift and float from form to form down the face of that grand gray Capitan rock in so leisurely and unconfused a manner that one may examine their texture and patterns as one would a piece of embroidery held in the hand. Near the bottom the width of the fall is increased from about 25 feet to 100 feet and is composed of yet finer tissue, fold-air, water, and sunbeams woven into irised robes that spirits might wear.
A little to the eastward, on the same side of the valley, thunders the great Wapama or Hetch Hetchy Fall. It is the about 1,700 feet high, and is so near Tueeulala that both are in full view from the same point. Its location is similar to that of the Yosemite Fall, but its volume of water is much greater, and at times of high water may be heard at a distance of 5 or 6 miles or more. These twin falls are on branches of the same stream, but they could hardly be more unlike. Tueeulala, in sunshine, chanting soft and low like a summer breeze in the pines; Wapama, in gorge shadows, roaring and booming like an avalanche. Tueeulala whispers that the Almighty dwells in peace; Wapama is the thunder of His chariot wheels in power.
There are no other large falls in the valley. Here and there small streams, seldom noticed, come dancing down from crag to crag with bird-like song, doing what they can in the grand general harmony. The river falls about 20 feet into a surging trout pool at the head of the valley; and on Rancheria Creek, a large tributary that comes in from the northeast, there is a series of magnificent cascades, broad silver plumes like those between the Vernal and Nevada falls in Yosemite, half leaping, half sliding down smooth, open folds of the rocks covered with crisp, clashing spray, into which the sunbeams pour with glorious effect. Others shoot edgewise, through deep, narrow gorge, chafing and surging beneath rainbows in endless variety of form and tone.
The floor of the valley is about 3 miles long, half a mile wide, and is partly separated by a bar of glacier -- polished granite across which the river breaks in rapids. The lower part is mostly a grassy, flowery meadow, with the trees confined to the sides and the river banks. The upper forested part is charmingly diversified with groves of the large and picturesque California live oak and the noble yellow pine, which here attains a height of more than 200 feet, growing well apart in small groves or eingly, allowing each tree to be seen in all its beauty and grandeur. Beneath them the common pteris spreads a sumptuous carpet, tufted here and there with ceanothus and manzanita bushes, azalea and brier rose, and brightened with mariposa tulips, golden-rod, tall mints, larkspurs, geraniums, etc., amid which butterflies, bees, and humming birds find rich pasturage. Near the walls, especially on the earthquake tali that occur in many place, the pines and California oak give place to the mountain live oak, which forms the shadiest and most extensive groves. The glossy foliage, densely crowded, makes a beautiful ceiling, with only a few irregular openings for the admission of sunbeams, while the pale-gray trunks and the branches, snarled and outspread in wide interlacing arches, are most impressively beautiful and picturesque. The sugar pine, sabine pine, incense cedar, silver fir, and tumion occur here and there among the oaks and yellow pines, or in cool side canyons, or scattered on the rifted wall rocks and benches. The river-bank trees are chiefly Tibocedrus, poplar, willow, alder, and flowering dogwood.
Hetch Hetchy weather is delightful and invigorating all the year. Snow seldom lies long on the floor and is never very deep. On the sunny north wall many a sheltered nook may be found embraced by sun-warmed rock bosses in which flowers bloom every month of the year. Even on the shaded south side of the valley the frost is never severe.
A good many birds winter in the valley and fill the short days with merry chatter and song. A cheerier company never sang in snow. First and best of all is the water ouzel, a dainty, dusky little bird, about the size of a robin, that sings a sweet fluty song all winter as well as in summer, and haunts the wild rapids and falls with marvelous constancy through all sorts of weather. A few robins, belated on their way down from the upper mountain meadows, make out to spend the winter here in comparative comfort, feeding on mistletoe berries. The kingfisher also winters in the valley, the golden-winged woodpecker, and the species that stores acorns in the bark of the trees, as well as jays, wrens, sparrows, and flocks of bluebirds and snowbirds, which make lively pictures in their quest for food.
Toward the end of March the sprouting grasses make the meadows green, the aments of the alders are nearly ripe, the libocedrus is sowing its pollen, willows putting forth their catkins, and a multitude of swelling buds proclaim the promise of spring. Wild strawberries are ripe in May, the early flowers are in bloom, the birds are busy in the groves, and the frog sin pools.
In June and July summer is in prime, and the tide of happy, throbbing life is at its highest. August is the peaceful season of ripe nuts and berries -- raspberries, blackberries, thimbleberries, gooseberries, shadberries, currants, puckery choke cherries, pine nuts, etc., offering royal feasts to Indians, squirrels, and birds of every feather. Then comes mellow, golden Indian summer, with its gorgeous colors and falling leaves, calm, thoughtful days, when everything, even the huge rocks, seems to be hushed and expectant, awaiting the coming of winter and rest.
Excepting only Yosemite, Hetch Hetchy is the most attractive and wonderful valley within the bounds of the great Yosemite National Park and the best of all the camp grounds. People are now flocking to it in ever-increasing numbers for health and recreation of body and mind. Though the walls are less sublime in height than those of Yosemite, its groves, gardens, and broad, spacious meadows are more beautiful and picturesque. It is many years since sheep and cattle were pastured in it, and the vegetation now shows scarce a trace of their ravages. Last year in October I visited the valley with Mr. William Keith, the artist. He wandered about from view to view, enchanted, made thirty-eight sketches, and enthusiastically declared that in varied picturesque beauty Hetch Hetchy greatly surpassed Yosemite. It is one of God's best gifts and ought to be faithfully guarded.

November 4, 2005
New Haven Community Schools voters will see new faces at the polls on November 8 because the Macomb County Clerk / Register of Deeds (D-Warren) and three local clerks expanded the student election inspector program. The clerks enlisted New Haven High School students as election inspectors in parts of Chesterfield, Macomb, Ray, and Lenox Townships.
Sixteen students will work in the upcoming election. This is believed to be the first time this many clerks have worked together in Macomb County to coordinate election inspectors and is the first time so many student inspectors will work in a New Haven Community Schools election.
"Dr. James Avery jumped at the chance to provide this opportunity for New Haven students and promptly filled every position," said the Macomb County Clerk. "I am thrilled with the quality of the New Haven students who applied to be an election inspector."
"It is important for students to learn about our democracy and then actually participate," said Dr. James Avery, Superintendent, New Haven Community Schools. "We are pleased to work with the County Clerk and local clerks to help our students learn and earn."
Michigan law allows a high school student to be an election inspector if the student is at least 16 years old and there are at least three other adult election inspectors at the same location.
The Macomb County Clerk worked with Kelly Jo Smolarek, Chesterfield Township Clerk; Ken Artman, Ray Township Clerk; and Jodi Kethe, Lenox Township Clerk. All four clerks worked across community lines in a non-partisan manner to overcome different inspector training schedules, different voting systems and different inspector pay rates to provide this opportunity for New Haven students.
Students will work a half day shift, either 6:00 a.m. – 1:30 p.m. or 1:30 p.m. – 9:00 p.m. and will be paid $7.00 per hour. They also attended a training session this week. Students will work with other election inspectors to make sure people are registered to vote, ballots are properly kept confidential, and will assist with counting ballots and reporting election results on election night.
"I hope other clerks will follow the example set by these local clerks and involve students in future elections," said the Macomb County Clerk. "This program is a good example of schools and government working together to teach students, and that benefits everyone."
The Macomb County Clerk started this program last May when she employed 72 student election inspectors in Clinton and Macomb Townships after the local clerks there decided not to participate in their elections.
In the past the Macomb County Clerk did not normally run the day-to-day operations of elections. This year, as the result of a new law designed to streamline elections, she is required in some elections to hire poll workers, run voting machines and polling locations, and perform all the other routine tasks that local election clerks normally do. The Macomb County Clerk is running the New Haven Schools election on November 8 for Macomb Township.
This is not the first time the Macomb County Clerk has tried to generate interest among young people in voting. Last year she held a voter registration drive aimed at high school students and visited several county high schools.

In this article, I will share with you a case study that features a course based on story-based learning strategy for Instructional Designers on Content Types and their Visualization Approaches.
My father was a master storyteller. He had a dual major in History and Education (specializing in teacher training) and used his storytelling skills to weave narratives with learning. As a result, I learnt about our values, our ancient culture, and our heritage through many of these stories. No surprises that I am a firm believer of using storytorials (story-based learning strategies) to create effective learning experiences.
As we know, a storytorial (from the words "story-based tutorial") combines the following two elements:
Pairing these two elements produces a learning solution that provides learners with an immersive learning experience. Storytorials feature a single fictional storyline with a beginning, middle, and an end. While a story may have more than one plotline, depending on the content, we take great care to keep the story focused on the content, avoiding extraneous details that don't contribute to the training.
A story-based approach or storytorial is an effective tool to engage learners with the content. Who is not interested in a good story? This strategy delivers not just for the K-12 segment but also among adult learners.
Advantages of a using a storytorial are:
Ref: This content is from my blog, Learning Design Series Approaches featuring Storytorials, that was featured on our website in June'14.
With this backdrop, let me move to the case study of Content Types and their Visualisation Approaches course that we had designed for our Instructional Design team. Now, this is also available as a product.
The aim was to explain the content types and how each can be presented visually to build an engaging and interactive course. The five content types are factual data and each type presents its own challenges during ideation and visualization. This course ties-in information on each content type, recommended visualization approaches and interactions that can be used for each. The content is presented from an Instructional Designer's perspective.
The content posed a significant challenge. The repetitive format of information for each content type made it difficult to retain learners' interest.
We felt that instead of listing out or describing various content types and their visualization techniques, it would be better for learners to go through a story that presents this information in a much more engaging and interesting format.
We decided to create a storyline that treats the challenges of the content as an actual business problem and outlines the solution through a series of real life situations. This approach helped the learners relate to the content, and apply their learning practically.
The story introduces us to a team of Instructional Designers, who have been assigned the task of creating an eLearning course. Their analysis of the storyboard, its review and discussions around the ways to present the content for the eLearning course form the basis to present the information on the content types.
We identified the following cast for our story:
Against a mandate of creating a cost-effective yet engaging course for a Fire Fighting Institute, Sandy readies a storyboard that maps to the content accurately to the required learning outcomes. Yet, this is rejected in the internal review by Ruth who notes that the instructional strategy is not engaging enough.
The learning happens through brainstorming sessions between Sandy, Ruth, and Ken. All three come with their assessment of the storyboard and discuss their ideas about the possible approaches (that can be used to create a significantly better learning experience).
The story has learning components that are illustrated through examples (featuring an analysis of Sandy's existing storyboard) followed by inputs on how it can be re-done to create an immersive learning experience.
The discussion leads to Tips that map to each content type.
After understanding the five content types, we introduce various levels of interaction. The course wraps up with a summary on how to map the content types to the interaction levels.
By taking a story-based approach, we were able to mitigate the intrinsic challenge to present content (that was dry and had repetitive information) in an engaging manner. The characters (Instructional Designers) resonated well with the target learners and the challenges that they faced were very real. This kept the learners hooked. Easy, narrative style makes the learning fun. Finally, as I said earlier, we all remember a good story!

Howdy folks, Ranger Roy here! It's nice to see you back on the Gilroy Best Western PLUS Forest Park Inn blog. Well it's been quite a few exciting weeks around here in our bustling' town. The big Gilroy Garlic Festival 2012 was a huge success! This year, some of my fellow Best Western PLUS Forest Park Inn junior rangers and I got to go to the Festival for free! (Whoa doggies! How did we pull that one off you ask? Well that's one of my secrets I'll share at the end of this post for all you garlic lovers for next year). But first, let me tell you about some things you won't want to miss out on.
First, there's Gilroy Garlic Festival's Gourmet Alley. This is like the place you dream of where chopping, slicin', dicin' and food sizzlin' on hot grills goes on for as far as the eye can see. While all of Gourmet Alley's food looked so tempting I didn't know where it would end–I knew where it would start.
My first meal was a free combo plate (more on that in a bit) piled high with a side of garlic fries, and of course a big slab of buttered garlic bread. And just for good measure, I added in a nice plate of stuffed garlic mushrooms. They have every garlicky food here you can imagine. Have you ever tasted garlic ice cream? Now there's a mouthful of adventure! Speaking of food, I got to watch the best fire-spitting, sauce-slathering, grease-frying garlic cook-off as chefs from all over brought out their best secret recipes vying for first prize that Laureen Pittman took home this year.
After the cookoff I meandered around listening to some of the best free music this side of the Pacific. While I was toe-tapping my way down the isles I noticed how many happy people were lined up at the Olam booth so I checked it out. Well shut my mouth! I found out why they were all smiling. Free garlic everywhere! Plus, I learned more than I ever knew about growing garlic from Gilroy's global garlic giant, Olam International.
Next on my adventure, I bought a Garlic Festival poster signed by Whitney Pintello, this year's poster contest winner. I also snagged a gourmet bottle of Lucero Garlic Oil. That ought to keep me fixed up for a week or two! One final souvenir to complete my day was an Oak leaf. That may seem like a strange souvenir, but you see, back at ranger HQ, I have one of the finest leaf collections–well of just about anyone, anywhere. I always collect leaves when I go on adventures, and pretty near have a small forest by now.
One final thing before I sign off. I promised to share how I got into the Festival free and had a free meal (plus got two free drinks, and a souvenir tee shirt). I became a Gilroy Garlic Festival volunteer, that's how. Easy as pie. Just a few hours of my time in trade for all that garlic goodness. If you want to know how you can get volunteer next year, contact the Gilroy Chamber of Commerce and they will fix you right up with all the details.
Well folks it's about time to sign off. Be sure and come back next time when I'll be sharing tips on visiting another of Gilroy's best destinations: Gilroy Garden's. Until next time, this is Ranger Roy at Gilroy's Best Western PLUS Forest Park Inn wishing you safe travels and hoping there's lots of garlic in your future.

There's been a call for action over a 'bottleneck' at King's Park Primary School.
DUP MLA Carla Lockhart has met with King's Park principal Mr Terry Shields, the Education Authority and local business owners in an effort to resolve access issues in and around the school.
For some time now there have been complaints about a bottleneck in the Queen's Walk area leading to the school and the meeting was designed to ensure there is ongoing consultation and work to try and resolve this matter.
Ms Lockhart said, "I keep in close contact with the principal Mr Shields, the parents and the local businesses. A new school is in the pipeline and I am working hard to ensure this is delivered and that the access issues are resolved.
"I would strongly encourage parents to remain calm and abide by the road markings and also by the security in this vicinity. This is all done in the interest of children's safety."

Aren't they just beeeeeeautiful???
As I opened the gate to the bell, I was greeted by an eager Delivery Man peering from behind this gorgeous bouquet!
Since this is not an occurrence I am used to, as I scratched my head I could only imagine that he had come to the wrong house!
'Are you sure they're for me???' I asked, taking one step back as he proceeded to pass them in my direction.
He looked at me, quizzically... 'You are Sandra?' He said.
'Yes!' I squeaked! In an unexpectedly ridiculous voice.
Thrusting the bouquet forth again, he replied, 'Then, yes madam, they are most definitely for you!'
It's been a very long time since I have had flowers delivered to my door.
I quickly opened the little card which was peeking through the foliage. Who could they possibly be from?
Inside the card, read...
'Dear Sandra.
Thank you so much for the lovely painting of Jack.
We all absolutely love it!
Love from Julie, Steve and Eleanor xxx
P.S. You're a star!'
How lovely to receive such warm thanks for a painting!
Since there are some rather gorgeous purple blooms within the arrangement, I think they sit just beautifully in my purple kitchen, don't you?
It's so lovely to know that another of my paintings will be treasured!
I'm sorry that I haven't posted any art for you today. I must admit to going through a bit of a dry spell of late. This will quickly pass and I will be back on track shortly.
Meanwhile, I have a very special post coming up this Sunday, so be sure to pop back then!!

By GERRY POSNER The standard advice to students is not to leave school, but to get an education. We all might agree that is advice worth listening to but, what if you were asked to leave school by your teacher in Grade 11?
What if your highly respected English teacher presented the case to you and the principal with a firm statement to the effect that you should be in a trade or other work since you didn't have "it" to get to or through university?
Well, that is exactly what happened to Dr. Ted Lyons. That scenario unfolded for him in 1958 at Kelvin High School and now, some 58 years later, Ted is receiving the highest honour the University of Manitoba bestows: the Distinguished Alumni Award for Lifetime Achievement. He will be receiving this recognition at a ceremony on May 5th in Winnipeg.
The path from the bottom to the top was not a direct one, but one which got straighter with every passing year. Ted Lyons was that kind of student who improved in school with every passing year from the moment he was accepted into the Faculty of Medicine at the University of Manitoba. And then, on the advice of his father, he took a research job in the summer as a student in a rather new field called ultrasound and as they say, the rest is history. This temporary employment ended up leading to a career which gave birth to one of the true pioneers in this specialty. Ted Lyons has never looked back.
Books, texts and medical articles - Ted's written them; seminars - he's led them; committees - he's chaired them; new techniques in the field, he's created and developed them. All of this and page after page make up the Ted Lyons resumé. The CV is almost as long as is this paper each issue, and it is all truly impressive. When you examine Ted's CV, you realize why the University of Manitoba chose to honour him, as this award recognizes outstanding achievements in both professional and personal lives. On both counts, Ted Lyons shines.
To compress his accomplishments in radiology and ultrasound to a paragraph is just short of impossible. But, the nub of it all is this: Ted Lyons was a huge force in making ultrasound one of modern medicine's most widely used diagnostic tools. He was one of the very first to use this technology to assist in locating brain tumours and detecting blood clots. His work with pregnant women was even more startling. He took the tool of ultrasound, used it on fetuses and, by doing so, he proved there was no harm to either the fetus or the mother. Finally, he was instrumental in shaping the latest machines for ultasound so that what was once a large piece of equipment now is the size of a cell phone. For all of this and much more, Ted Lyons was inducted into the Order of Canada in 2008 as an officer... not too shabby for a kid told to leave school at 15 years of age.
And then there is the personal service side of E.A. Lyons. One could say that when it comes to leadership, Ted rose to the top. He was president of: the Shaarey Zedek Synagogue (30 years after his father), the Jewish Federation of Winnipeg, the Manitoba Association of Radiologists, the Canadian Radiology Association and, most recently, chair of the Simkin Centre board.
Of course, to be president of an organization, you have to serve for years in advance of being appointmented, then after your term you have to serve as past president. When you consider the number of meetings Ted Lyons has under his belt, you might reflect that his Order of Canada and University of Manitoba honours should be for nothing else than just perseverance and patience to sit through all those sessions.
Very few of us could do or would even consider trying to do what Ted Lyons did and that is to give back to the community. He did that in spades and in every instance was motivated by a desire to improve the organization he was leading. That desire has always been the underlying force behind the Ted Lyons persona. A large chunk of that persona was a direct result of the example provided to Ted by his late father, the renowned Dr. Ruvin Lyons. Ruvin would, however, have been the first to acknowledge that his son long ago eclipsed the father in his contributions to his community. To be sure, our community has recognized Ted as he has received two Distinguished Service Awards: the Sol Kanee Distinguished Service Medal from the Jewish Federation of Winnipeg and the SRU ( Radiology) Distinguished Service Award.
Of course, in the midst of all this work and participation in community affairs, Ted and wife Harriet (Jacob) were parents to children Mara and Sami and now grandparents to four granddaughters all in Winnipeg.
The moral of the Ted Lyons story is: Try to get a teacher to tell you to drop out. That statement might just light a fire not to be extinguished.

571. Leaving for Enon. 3rd March 1947 1. Jesus is meditating, sitting all alone under a gigantic holm-oak, which has grown on a slope of the mountain dominating Shechem. The city, of a rosy-white shade in the early sunshine, is below, spread out on the lower slopes of the mountain. From above it looks like a handful of huge white cubes thrown by a big boy on a green sloping meadow. The two water courses near which it rises form a silvery blue semicircle round the city; then one of them enters it gurgling and glittering among the white houses, it then comes out and flows through the greenery towards the river Jordan, appearing and disappearing under olive-groves and luxuriant orchards. The other river, smaller in size, remains outside the walls, almost lapping on them, and irrigates fertile vegetable gardens; it then flows away watering flocks of white sheep grazing on meadows reddened by the capitula of clover flowers. The view in front of Jesus is a wide one. After lower and lower undulating hills one can see the green Jordan valley foreshortened, and beyond it, the mountains of the region beyond the Jordan, ending to north-east in the typical summits of Hauran. The sun rising behind them has lit up three strange clouds resembling three light gauze ribbons placed horizontally on the turquoise veil of the firmament, and the light gauze of the three long narrow clouds has become the orange-pink hue of certain precious corals. The sky seems to be barred by this airy railing and is beautiful. Jesus stares at it, that is, He looks in that direction engrossed in thought. I wonder whether He even sees it. With His elbow pressed on His knee, His hand supporting His chin resting in the hollow of the palm of His hand, He looks, thinks, meditates. Above Him birds are making a hullabaloo chirping and flying around joyfully. 2. Jesus lowers His eyes looking at Shechem that is awakening more and more in the morning sunshine. The shepherds and flocks, so far the only ones animating the view, are now joined by groups of pilgrims, and the jingling of herd-bells mingles with the tinkling of the harness bells of donkeys and with the noise of voices, the shuffling of feet and the babble of words. The noise of the awakening city and of the people ending their night's rest is carried in waves as far as Jesus. Jesus stands up. With a sigh He leaves His quiet place and goes down quickly towards the town, along a short cut. He goes in among caravans of market-gardeners and pilgrims, while the former are hurrying to unload their goods, and the latter to buy them before setting off. Waiting in a group in a corner of the square there are already the apostles and the women disciples, and around them there are the people from Ephraim, Shilo, Lebonah and many from Shechem. Jesus goes towards them and greets them. He then says to those of Samaria: «And now let us part. Go back to your homes. Remember My words. Grow in justice.» He then says to Judas of Kerioth: «Have you given alms for the poor of every place, as I told you?» «Yes, I have. With the exception of those of Ephraim, as they have already had them.» «Go, then. Ensure that every poor person may be comforted.» «We bless You on their behalf.» «Bless the women disciples. They gave Me the money. Go. Peace be with you.» They go away unwillingly, sorrowfully. But they obey. 3. Jesus stays with the apostles and the women disciples. He says to them: «I am going to Enon. I want to visit the place of the Baptist. I shall then go down to the road in the valley. It is more comfortable for the women.» «Would it not be better to take the road through Samaria?» asks the Iscariot. «There is no reason why we should be afraid of highwaymen, even if our road is close to their dens. Who wants to come with Me can do so. Who does not feel like coming as far as Enon, can remain here until the day after the Sabbath. On that day I shall go to Tirzah, and whoever remains here can join Me there.» «Actually I... should prefer to stay here. I am not very well... I am tired...» says the Iscariot. «One can see that. You look like one who is not well. You look gloomy indeed, also with regard to your humour and complexion. I have been watching you for some time...» says Peter. «But no one asks me whether I am unwell, however...» «Would that have pleased you? I never know what you like. But if it pleases you, I shall ask you now, and I am willing to stay with you to look after you...» Peter replies to him patiently. «No, no! I am only tired. You may go. I shall stay where I am.» «I shall stay as well. I am old. I shall rest assisting you as a mother» says Eliza all of a sudden. «Are you staying? You had said...» interrupts Salome. «If everybody went, I would have come as well, in order not to be left here all alone. But since Judas is going to stay...» «Then I will come, too. I do not wish to sacrifice you, woman. You will certainly go willingly to see the refuge of the Baptist...» «I come from Bethzur and I never felt the need to go to Bethlehem to see the grotto where the Master was born. That is something I shall do when I shall no longer have the Master. So you can imagine whether I am aflame with the desire to see where was John... I prefer to practice charity, as I am sure that it has more value than a pilgrimage.» «You are reproaching the Master. Do you not realise that?» «I am speaking for myself. He is going there and is doing the right thing. He is the Master. I am an old woman in whom grief has removed all curiosity and the love for the Christ has removed all desires except that of serving Him.» «So, according to you, it is a service to spy upon me.» «Are you doing anything blameworthy? Only those who do harmful things are watched. But I have never spied upon anybody, man. I do not belong to the snake family. Neither do I betray.» «Neither do I.»«God grant it for your own good. But I fail to understand why you are so against my staying here to rest...» 4 Jesus, Who so far has been listening in silence, in the middle of the others, amazed at the petty quarrel, raises His head that was somewhat lowered, and says: «That is enough. A woman, who is older than you, can with more reason have the same desire as you have. You will stay here until the dawn of the day after the Sabbath. You will then join Me. In the meantime, Judas, go and buy what we will need during the next days. Go and be quick.» Judas goes away against his will to buy foodstuff. Andrew is about to follow him, but Jesus holds him back by the arm saying: «Stay here. He can manage by himself.» Jesus is very severe. Eliza looks at Him and then approaches Him saying: «Forgive me, Master, if I displeased You.» «I have nothing to forgive you, woman. You, rather, should forgive that man, as if he were your son.» «I will stay with him with that feeling... even if he thinks the very opposite... You understand me...» «Yes, and I bless you. And I tell you that you were right in saying that pilgrimages to My places will be a necessity when I am no longer amongst you... a necessity to comfort your spirits. For the time being they only serve the desires of your Jesus. And you have understood one of My wishes, because you are sacrificing yourself to protect an imprudent spirit...» The apostles look at one another... and also the women disciples do likewise. Mary only is completely covered with Her veil and does not raise Her head to look at anybody. And Mary of Magdala, standing upright like a queen who is judging, has never lost sight of Judas, who is going round the vendors, and her eyes blaze with anger while her closed lips express contempt. Her countenance says more than words... Judas comes back. He gives his companions what he bought. He tidies up his mantle that he had used to carry the goods he purchased, and makes the gesture of handing the purse to Jesus. Jesus rejects it with His hand: «It is not necessary. Mary is still with us for alms. You are to do the necessary to be charitable here. There are many beggars who come down from all places these days and go towards Jerusalem. Give them alms without prejudice, with charity, bearing in mind that, with regard to God, we are all beggars of His mercy and of His bread... Goodbye. Goodbye, Eliza. Peace be with you.» And He turns round quickly and begins to walk fast along the road that was near Him without giving Judas time to say goodbye to Him...They all follow Him in silence. They come out of the town turning their steps northeastwards through the beautiful country..."
So why, on a Traditional Catholic forum, are people allowed to post material that was on the Index before Vatican II?

It is a blistering 90 degrees outside and it is painful. Brutal. Barely able to breath and walk down the stairs terrible. Ok maybe it's not that bad…but still. Pretty bad. To brave the heat, I sandwiched yesterday's chocolate chip cookies with ice cream. I went for a rocky road and strawberry since the flavors naturally complement each other.
To easily shape the ice cream to be the perfect size for your cookies, take a pint of ice cream, cut and peel the cardboard container off.
Wrap it in saran wrap and roll it and shape it to the desired width. Place it back into the freezer to firm up.
Use a knife and cut slices to however thickness you want your cookie sandwich to be. Either serve right away or wrap and freeze to enjoy at a later time!

A man and woman from Manchester who made up a car crash and then encouraged family and friends to falsely claim they were involved in the' collision' in a effort to get tens of thousands of pounds in insurance payments have been jailed for a total of three years.
Dale Bowers and Michelle Culff were sentenced alongside six accomplices who fraudulently claimed they were involved in the' smash' in a bid to get payouts from Saga.Three of the six, including Culff' s 62 - year - old mother Eileen, were also jailed and the other three given suspended prison terms.
This followed an investigation by the City of London Police' s Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department(IFED).
Eileen Culff reported to Saga that she was travelling in her Nissan Micra when she crashed into the back of a BMW on Leigh Road in Wigan in October 2012. Her friends Elsie Leatherbarrow and Michelle Beavan, as well as Michelle Culff' s partner Paul Bailey, said they were also riding in the car when the' incident' happened.
The' driver' of the BMW, Dale Bowers, his partner Athena Harris and her brother Martin Harris, also told Saga that they were in the BMW when it was' hit' by Culff' s Micra.
The' occupants' of both cars, bar Eileen, later submitted claims for whiplash worth between£ 4, 300 and£ 7, 435, which were supported by medical records.
Bowers also claimed for car repairs, vehicle recovery fees and courtesy car replacement costs, bringing his total claim value to almost£ 90, 000. He received a£ 4, 500 payout and a prestige courtesy car while his BMW was allegedly off the road.
But the con started to unravel when Saga found inconsistencies in Eileen Culff' s account of the' accident'.Proof of the conspiracy came when an examination of the Nissan revealed that the cars had not been in a collision with each other in the way described to the insurer.
When challenged by Saga, Eileen Culff admitted there was no accident and said her daughter Michelle Culff had set it all up.
The insurer made a referral to IFED in August 2013 and detectives arrested the Culffs, Bowers and Athena Harris at their respective homes three months later.Leatherbarrow, Beavan, Bailey and Martin Harris attended a police station for interview.
During interview Michelle Culff stated that a third party had designed the accident scenario and given her Bowers' details.She claimed the third party paid her£ 800 to set up the con, money she gave to her mother.
She said she believed she was helping her mother and her friends get extra money in the run up to Christmas.
Leatherbarrow, Beavan and Bailey later told detectives that Michelle Culff had taken them en masse to a doctor to get medical reports to support their claims.
The eight were subsequently charged with conspiracy to commit fraud by false representation.
Yesterday afternoon(30 th July) at Liverpool Crown Court, the following sentences were given:
Athena Harris, 26, of Russeldene Road in Highfield in Wigan, was handed a six month jail term suspended for 12 months. She was also given a six month supervision requirement.
Martin Harris, 19, of Russeldene Road in Highfield in Wigan, was handed a two month jail term suspended for 12 months and ordered to undertake 150 hours unpaid work.
City of London Police Detective Constable Paula Doyle, who led the Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department' s investigation, said: "Dale Bowers and Michelle Culff made up a car crash in a bid to make money for themselves and their loved ones.
"But their actions, and their family and friends' willingness to get involved in the scam, has led to them all being labelled as criminals and landed most of them behind bars.
"Today' s sentencing should also send out a serious message to anyone thinking of telling lies to insurers to make money they are not entitled to– insurance fraud is a crime and you will feel the full force of the law."
Saga Director, Paul Green, commented: "Saga 's honest customers should not have to pay for the crimes committed by insurance fraudsters. That is why we have robust, sophisticated and uncompromising ways to detect fraudulent acts and will look to punish these criminals wherever possible.
" Crime should not pay and by working with the Insurance Fraud Enforcement Department and other organisations we make sure it does not.We are delighted that those involved in this case will rue the day they followed a criminal path and that our customers will not have to foot the bill for their criminality."
IFED has applied to the court under the Proceeds of Crime Act to recover the money fraudulently gained in this scam.

The mission of East Tenth United Methodist Children and Youth Center, Inc. is to provide a safe place where the spiritual, emotional, educational, and physical needs of children, youth, and their families are responded to in a holistic approach.
The Center is an outreach initiative of East Tenth United Methodist Church.

Caius Veiovisv has a lot on his mind … on his head … in his head?
The "666" tattoo and horn piercing decorating this murder suspect's nose come off as an understatement compared to the bulging round implants protruding from his skull in this unforgettable mugshot.
The UK's The Sun newspaper called the image, "one of the most frightening mugshots ever"
Unfortunately, though perhaps not surprisingly, the charges against Veiovis are as alarming as his photograph. According to the Massachusetts newspaper The Republican.
Veiovis, 31, along with Adam Hall, 34, both of Pittsfield, and David Chalue, 44, of Springfield, were arrested over the weekend and charged with the kidnapping and murder of three Pittsfield men: David Glasser, Edward Frampton and Robert Chadwell.
The three men had been missing for nearly two weeks, and their bodies were discovered in a trench at an undisclosed location Saturday, according to Berkshire District Attorney David F. Capeless.

Cauliflower Soup Recipe
A simple and satisfying vegan dish with a subtle sweetness.
1 leek (white and light green part only), halved lengthwise and sliced 1/2 inch thick
1 small onion, chopped
1 clove garlic, smashed
1 tbsp sea salt
1 tbsp coconut oil or butter
1 head cauliflower, cut in large pieces
1 small Yukon Gold potato, peeled and diced (about 1/2 cup)
4 cup hot water
Juice of 1/2 lemon
1/2 cup coconut milk
Fresh parsley leaves, for garnish
Freshly ground pepper
Step 1: In a large pot, combine leek, onion, garlic, salt and coconut oil. Cook over medium heat, stirring often, until leeks and onions are soft and translucent but not browned.
Step 2: Stir in cauliflower and potato, then stir in water. Bring to a boil, reduce heat and simmer until cauliflower and potatoes are fork-tender, about 15 minutes.
Step 3: Remove from heat and blend with an immersion blender until very smooth. Stir in lemon juice and coconut milk.
Step 4: Just before serving, reheat gently. Do not allow to boil. Serve garnished with parsley leaves and pepper.

For what do beautiful, breezy, sunny, weekend days call for if not a clean, crisp, alcoholic, adult Slurpee? This cucumber cooler is one of the lightest, most refreshing summer drinks. It feels like drinking a healthy green juice – with booze – they must neutralise each other, right?!
2 cucumbers – some like to skin them, but I wouldn't worry about it, you'll keep more of the good stuff that way.
couple handfuls of mint
juice of 1 lemon
elderflower cordial
gin, we used Hendrick's which is known to go well with cucumber
some ice
Non-alcoholic note: For a non-alcoholic cooler, replace the gin with chilled tonic water.
In a blender, or in my case a Nutribullet, combine the cucumber chunks, mint leaves, lemon juice and a cup of water. Keep a little cucumber and mint back for garnish.
Blend together until you have a smooth mixture.
Stack some ice in your glasses, and garnish with cucumber or mint – or both.
Pour a generous slug of gin & add a good splash of elderflower cordial into each glass.
And top with your green juice.
Pop the rest into a pitcher with some cordial, gin and ice. Take the pitcher outside with you and sit back, relax and enjoy the sunshine.

Foiled: A Graphic Novel about Fencing
You ever find a birthday present for someone, that's such a perfect fit, you wonder why they don't already have six copies of their own?
Lisa found me exactly such a present. Foiled is a graphic novel combining a story by Jane Yolen with illustrations by Mike Cavallero. Lisa gave me a copy for my birthday.
It is the story of a teenage girl who grew up in New York, went to a private school, and loves fencing more than anything else. Magic weaves through the story, set against the backdrop of some key New York landmarks, like Grand Central.
See what I mean? Absurdly perfect!
Maybe I identify with Aliera, the protagonist, a little. In high school, and for a bit in college, I definitely had the fierce desire to be good at fencing…. I was never as good as she was, though, beating everyone in her fencing practice and heading for nationals. I counted myself lucky, and a little surprised, when I won bouts.
I know I love New York city… I walk around, torn between wishing and believing that the city has more magic in it and more possibilities than can be seen with ordinary eyes.
Mike Cavallaro's illustrations are fabulous, angular, but they have an interesting depth. The colors he chooses are interesting as well. At first, I thought the green-shaded grayscale had to do with wanting to echo the sword themes in color. I didn't even catch on that Aliera was color blind. And then, well…
If you love fencing, or a good graphic novel with a bit of a magical tale— go read this!
I love this collaboration, and really hope there will be a sequel to Aliera's tale by my next birthday!
For every book I read in 2011, I'm donating $1 to the New York Public Library.

Dave Nichols, director of the Missouri Department of Transportation (MoDOT), will retire in May.
Nichols has worked for MoDOT for more than 30 years. He became the director in April 2013. Before that, he served as MoDOT's chief engineer for two years and previously held many different leadership roles, including serving for 11 years as the first director of program delivery.
In addition, Nichols also has served as district engineer for MDOT's Northwest District, headquartered in St. Joseph, and worked in MoDOT's Kansas City District.
"The commission is grateful for Dave's long career of dedicated, results-oriented service to MoDOT," Commission Chair Stephen Miller said. "He exemplifies exactly what it means to be a public servant, having spent the last 30 years of his life doing great work for the citizens of Missouri."
Throughout his career, Nichols watched the department grow and become a leader among state transportation departments.
"MoDOT is filled with talented and dedicated employees, and it has been a great privilege to work with them," Nichols said. "I have watched this team rise to whatever challenge they've faced time and time again, and I know they will continue to lead and innovate."
MoDOT is currently searching for a replacement of Nichols.

This tag is used on articles that discuss General Ledger. A General Ledger is a mandatory component of any business' accounting system as it is a historical record summarizing all of the financial balances of a business.
See how you can assign general ledger (GL) accounts and cost centers to line items in ABBYY FlexiCapture for Invoices. The software will also learn a default GL account per vendor to speed up processing.
All financial transactions occurring in the day to day operations of a business are tracked by the business' accounting department and recorded to provide the business owners an accurate assessment of the financial performance of the company. Transactions are recorded by the company in books called journals that are summarized on a monthly basis, and then the totals are posted to the company's General Ledger. A General Ledger is a mandatory component of any business' accounting system as it is a historical record summarizing all of the financial balances of a business. To keep this explanation simple, we will avoid using terms such as debit and credit and will assume that all of the business' transactions are directly recorded into the company's General Ledger (vs. being initially recorded in a journal and then summarized in the journal prior to posting in the General Ledger). To easily understand how a General Ledger is used, it can be explained in a visual sense by looking at a non-computerized, i.e. manual accounting system. Picture a big book. That book contains several lined pages. Each lined page is assigned to each account of the business and is labeled as such with the name of the account at the top of the page. Each line on the page would then be filled with the individual financial transactions that have occurred for that particular account. The lines of the page are then totaled together to determine the balance in that particular account as of a certain date. The cumulative balances of the profit and loss type accounts are then added together to determine the business' profit or loss through a certain date.

Scientists find a way to distinguish the aerosol particle signal from the weather noise
(Phys.org)—Scientists developed a modeling shortcut to dial in a clearer atmospheric particle signal. A research team from the Scripps Institute of Oceanography, the University of Washington, and Pacific Northwest National Laboratory fine-tuned the winds simulated in a global climate model to better represent the winds measured in the atmosphere. Their technique increased the signal's clarity by greatly reducing the signal noise. Their work produced shorter, more efficient simulations of the global aerosol particle effects on clouds and a better reception of the atmospheric particle signal.
Although scientists agree that the Earth is warming because of increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases, there are other considerations. Increased levels of atmospheric particles, or aerosols, inside clouds can have a cooling influence. Pollution particles make the clouds brighter and more reflective by both increasing the number of cloud droplets and reducing each droplet's size. Scientists are working to find other factors that allow polluted clouds to hold more water, which would make them even brighter. Accounting for detailed features in the climate, such as the cooling effect of pollution particles on clouds, will help scientists understand past climate change and improve confidence in predictions of future climate change. This study gives climate researchers a valuable tool for those important predictions.
Aerosol particles produced by human activity are influencing climate change by making more droplets so that clouds can hold more water without raining. Isolating such aerosol effects on clouds from the influence of inherently variable effects of weather systems is fraught with difficulty. The aerosols' signature is small but persistent, yet it involves the same highly variable quantity - the amount of liquid water in the atmospheric column - that is strongly influenced by weather systems.
For this study, researchers from the Scripps Institution of Oceanography, University of Washington, and PNNL simulated aerosol effects on clouds using the Community Atmosphere Model, CAM5. They nudged simulations of pre-industrial and present day aerosols toward the same winds so that the weather systems were similar in both simulations. They also simulated pre-industrial and present day aerosols without nudging so that the weather systems could evolve freely. In both pairs of simulations, the aerosols' impact on Earth's energy balance was estimated by comparing Earth's energy balance to each pair of pre-industrial and present day aerosol simulations.
Nudging greatly reduced the variations in the column liquid water without significantly changing the sensitivity of the column liquid water to the aerosol, thus permitting global estimates of aerosol effects on clouds in much shorter simulations.
The researchers have shown that aerosols' effects on clouds can be isolated in shorter, efficient simulations. Next, they will use the same method in simulations that are much more computationally detailed.
