Utah Mormons were officially called to repentance over the pulpit this month for not being more involved in our local political process. Specifically, the importance of attending precinct Caucus meetings. The concern was magnified by a recent poll that showed that less than a third of registered state voters have been showing up for a caucus. .

New Year Resolution Epiphany
Happy 2012! Today I sat down and dutifully started listing out all of my new year resolutions. First, I listed all the things I "should" do, which morphed into the things I "want" to do. Several on the two lists match up. In all honesty, it might be hard to stick to any resolution on … Continue reading

PALM BEACH GARDENS, Fla. - Grammy award winners and golf enthusiasts Vince Gill and Amy Grant, along with their seven-year-old daughter, Corrina Grant Gill, are the Family Golf Month spokesfamily for the second consecutive year. Last year, more than 1,100 facilities hosted Family Golf Month events in its second year, an 823 percent increase from 2006 (120 facilities).
Family Golf Month, held during July at participating facilities nationwide, offers family golf clinics and play days for a nominal fee and provides a structured, yet casual opportunity for families to learn the game of golf together. PGA Professionals may also customize additional programs that best fit their facility, resources and style such as 3-, 6- or 9-hole scrambles or a family cookout to celebrate the day. Take Your Daughter to the Course Week (July 7-13), a program developed by the National Golf Course Owners Association (NGCOA) in 2000, and Bring Your Kids to the Range, a Golf Digest Publications and Golf Range Association of America (GRAA) initiative, are two additional programs promoted during the month. Another family golf opportunity, The PGA Family Course Program, was launched last August at facilities nationwide in partnership with U.S. Kids Golf and their Personal Tee Program. By year's end, more than 300 golf courses participated in the year-round program.
"Vince Gill and Amy Grant are such great supporters of the game of golf and we are thrilled that they, along with Corrina, continue to help promote family golf," said PGA of America President Brian Whitcomb. "They recognize the benefits of playing the game together, and we know that they will inspire other families to find local PGA Professionals offering family events."
Vince Gill, Amy Grant and Corrina will help promote Family Golf Month through public service announcements and print ads. Gill and Grant, both avid golfers, have already introduced the game to Corrina.
"Golf has always been a great activity for families to get outdoors and enjoy themselves," Gill said. "I don't think children are ever too young to enjoy the game of golf. Johnny Miller gave me the great advice to make it fun every time you take your kids out there, so that is what we do with Corrina," Gill added.
Gill began playing golf with his father, J. Stanley Gill, on a course in the small town of Crescent, Okla., when he was around five or six years old. Grant began golfing as an adult, and treasures the memories she has of golfing with her family.
"My parents are in their 70s and it's the only athletic thing I can imagine that we can all do together," Grant said. "Many times, Vince and I have been on a golf course with our kids and we've been able to enjoy the sunset. The game itself provides opportunities to enjoy nature and have unhurried conversations."
Consumers can find a complete list of facilities participating in Family Golf Month along with details on specific events and online registration, by zip code on the Play Golf America Web site at PlayGolfAmerica.com.
Vince Gill has sold more than 26 million albums. He has earned 18 CMA Awards, including Entertainer of the Year in 1993 and 1994. He is tied with George Strait for having won the most CMA Male Vocalist Awards (five), and is currently second only to Brooks and Dunn for accumulating the most CMA Awards in history. Gill is a member of the Grand Ole Opry, and has received 19 Grammy Awards to date, the most of any male Country artist. An avid golfer, he helped create the annual Vince Gill Pro-Celebrity Invitational Golf Tournament ("The Vinny") in 1993 in order to help support junior golf programs throughout Tennessee. Besides being known for his talent as a performer, musician and songwriter, Gill is regarded as one of Country Music's best known humanitarians, participating in hundreds of charitable events throughout his career. In August of 2007, the Country Music Association inducted Gill as the newest members of the coveted Country Music Hall of Fame. For more information, visit vincegill.com.
In her 30-year music career, Amy Grant has sold more than 30 million albums around the world, won six Grammy awards and 25 Gospel Music Association Dove Awards, including four-time Artist of the Year, and established herself as a musical pioneer who opened mainstream radio to the sounds of Christian music, paving the way for future Christian artists. Grant is one of only two Christian artists to be awarded a star on the legendary Walk of Fame in Hollywood. Grant was also the host of the NBC primetime television series "Three Wishes," which fulfills the hopes and dreams of deserving people in towns across the United States.

Raman spectroscopic study of the selenite mineral - ahlfeldite NiSeO3.2H2O
Frost, Ray L. & Keeffe, Eloise C. (2009) Raman spectroscopic study of the selenite mineral - ahlfeldite NiSeO3.2H2O. Journal of Raman Spectroscopy, 40(5), pp. 509-512.
Accepted Version
(PDF 150kB)
Raman spectroscopy has been used to study the selenite mineral ahlfeldite. A comparison is made with the Raman spectra of chalcomenite, cobaltomenite and clinochalcomenite. Selenite minerals are characterised by the position of the symmetric stretching mode which is observed at higher wavenumbers than the antisymmetric stretching mode. The selenite ion has C3v symmetry and four modes, 2A1 and 2E. These modes are observed at 813, 472 cm-1 (A1) and 685, 710, 727 and 367 and 396 cm-1 (E). Bands assigned to the water stretching vibrations are observed for ahlfeldite at 3385 cm-1, for chalcomenite at 2953, 3184 and 3506 cm-1 and for clinochalcomenite at 2909, 3193 and 3507 cm-1. A comparison of the Raman spectra of chalcomenite, clinochalcomenite and cobaltomenite is made. The position of these bands enabled hydrogen bond distances in the selenite structure to be estimated. Hydrogen bond distances for ahlfeldite, chalcomenite and clinochalcomenite were determined to be similar.

hYPNOSIS, SUBLIMINAL RECORDINGS
This past month, Vison training was added as a page on this site. Vision Training has many benefits.
Vision Training Benefits:
"The parsnip (Pastinaca sativa) is a root vegetable related to the carrot. Parsnips resemble carrots, but are paler in colour than most carrots, and have a sweeter taste, especially when cooked.[2] The buttery, slightly spicy, sweet flavor of cooked mature parsnips (often picked after the first frost) is reminiscent of butterscotch, honey, and subtle cardamom. Like carrots, parsnips are native to Eurasia and have been eaten there since ancient times. Zohary and Hopf note that the archeological evidence for the cultivation of the parsnip is "still rather limited", and that Greek and Roman literary sources are a major source about its early use, but warn "there are some difficulties in distinguishing between parsnip and carrot (which, in Roman times, were white or purple) in classical writings since both vegetables seem to have been sometimes called pastinaca yet each vegetable appears to be well under cultivation in Roman times."[3] As pastinache comuni the "common" pastinaca figures in the long list of comestibles enjoyed by the Milanese given by Bonvesin de la Riva in his "Marvels of Milan" (1288).[1]
This is an aweson veggie. Try boiling in water for three minutes. Next put into food processor and blend
until smooth. Add one third cup of milk and some selected spices such as pepper. You will have a fantastic smooth creamy
sauce that tastes wonderful. This is a great substitute for other creamy sauces such as melted cheese or custom sauces.
Give it a try.

It is not enough to get your financial information together and also to get hold of your landlord for any commitment when selling a business.How To sell your business While practicing these right things, owners often make three fatal errors that significantly reduce their chances of achieving a prosperous sale. Those complaints are:
1. Signing an empty listing might make someone who is selling a business believe that he or she has top of the hand, having engaged more than one broker to offer the company, and retaining the right to do-it-yourself and avoiding a commission expense altogether. This is the way this kind of listing works. The broker gets their pay cheque only when introducing to the business, the one who buys it. And the seller costs nothing to market to any other buyers without obligation to the broker. But you will find difficulties with this approach. The "listing" agreement which imposes little responsibility or accountability on either party, most likely to motivate any brokers to operate hard, and can easily lead to a dispute later on. One seller, for example, found out that the individual with whom he sold a food market have been brought to it by two different brokers, whom the seller had engaged with open listings. This became available in a civil suit where the brokers successfully sued the seller for disturbing their business relationships and violating the terms of the listing agreements by instructing the escrow holder to not pay their commission claims.
Open listings rarely create a satisfactory outcome because of the person who's engaged in selling a small business, or for the broker. Selling your business in Sacramento CA
2. Setting an asking price that's too high with regards to documented income then claim the cost is right because actual earnings are greater than reported, is a strategy well-liked by some sellers, but a method more likely to bring trouble, rather than experienceing this desired result. The smallest amount of with the problems suffered by someone planning to sell a company with this particular pricing technique, is the fact that buyers is going to be "turned off" to the seller. The obvious question for you is: "If the seller is attempting to cheat the taxing authorities, the way she attempt to cheat me?" That illustrates the skepticism any buyer might have about the honesty from the seller and, by extension, the actual value and desirability of the business.
Merely losing an individual may be the best-case scenario. It's also possible that word will leak out to the government along with other taxing agencies that the seller is failing to report all income. That may bring the owner serious civil and legal penalties. Besides, anyone naive enough to accept that story and proceed with all the purchase, isn't likely to achieve the skills and experience needed to achieve success with the business. Then, once the buyer understands he was "tricked" into make payment on price, the trouble will spread to the seller, now a prime candidate to be accused of misrepresentation.
3. Some sellers think it's smart to play "hard to get." Based on this reasoning, in the event the buyer cannot easily reach the who owns the business enterprise to inquire about questions or negotiate a transaction, the customer will from the impression the seller has to be very busy with other prospects and offers. Therefore the prospective purchaser believes which he (or she) ought to hurry up and place within an offer--an offer how the seller will cherish.
The fallacy with this maneuver would it be doesn't usually work. Most buyers, with plenty of work at home opportunities to take into account, will simply lose interest in a offering that accompany added and unnecessary obstacles.
Since locating a good and qualified buyer to pay for a fair price for a small or mid-sized business can often be difficult enough, it's bad technique for someone considering selling a small business to make matters worse by committing one of these simple serious mistakes.

The Earliest Developments in Music
The areito was the highest form of artistic expression for the indigenous peoples who lived on the island, combining narrative, dance, ritual and musical traditions. By the late 15th century, the Taino culture had developed various musical instruments that were used to accompany religious ceremonies, as well as for daily enjoyment. Some of the instruments used in the areito, such as the güiro (an instrument made from a hollowed gourd that is played using a scraper), and the maracas (an instrument made from the hollowed gourd of the higüero or calabash tree, which is filled with pebbles or dried seeds and used for rhythmic accompaniment), are still vital parts of Puerto Rico's musical tradition. Beyond the use of indigenous instruments, it is still uncertain whether Puerto Rican folkloric music preserves any linguistic or musical elements originally borrowed from Taino sources. It is speculated, however, that the way in which the nasal cavity is used as a sound box in certain song forms that developed in the island's mountainous interior did originate among the Taino.
Upon their arrival, the colonizing Spaniards triggered a chain of events that transformed music in

The 18th Century
In 1765, the island's music was greatly influenced by the arrival of a group of musicians with a Spanish military regiment. These musical groups performed in public concerts and in official, religious and social events, as well as in the traditional recitals in the center of the plaza. Such activities created a favorable environment for the island's musical development.
By the late 18th century, popular music had evolved through a convergence of ecclesiastic, urban and rural forms, which emerged outside the confines of the city of

Bucket seat help
Hello all. How can I go about installing bucket seats from a relatively newer car into my bench seat '69 Impala? Do I need to make custom brackets or can I bolt the buckets directly on the floor pan? Also, what make and model can I use to make this easier for me?
Well i'm no expert and truthfully have virtual no hands on experience with this stuff, so take my advice just as an idea, cause it probably isnt the BEST or the completly right way to do it......
For mounting the seats, you could probably take the origional brackets from the seats that your going to be using, weld or bolt them down where you want the seats to be, then just put the seats on them like that. Unless something doesnt fit, I wouldnt see why it wouldnt work. As for the seats themselfs, its a 63 Impala.....I'm assuming that your not gonna be doing much Auto-X or even drag racing, so you want something comfortable that looks good instead of something that will hold you in the seat even if you are sucked into a twister.....so why not look on eBay or the want ads for something like this?
I have replaced/upgraded seats in a few vehicles over the years and have never had a set of seats match the original mounting bolts of the car the seats are going in. I always use the cars original mounting studs or brackets, so I either modify the car mounts or make custom brackets. When looking for seats for your car take good measurements of what you have and start looking. You may be able to get close to your existing mounts to where little modification is required. Watch for the width and height of the seats you have -vs- the seats you are buying also. You don't want your new seats to sit too low in your car, or have brackets that show too much when your door is open, because they are raised too high. Seats I have installed from after market suppliers have all had to have custom mounts made. You may ask around and find someone with your type of car that has already been through all of this and can give you some info. Good luck !

Swinging '60s meet upper crust in Fellowes novel
By Mike Collett-White
LONDON (Reuters Life!) - Julian Fellowes, who won an Oscar for his "Gosford Park" screenplay and topped bestseller lists with debut novel "Snobs," built his reputation on recreating the fun and foibles of the British upper crust.
In "Past Imperfect," which hits the stores in the United States this week, the British author is back among earls and baronets, London cocktail parties and debutante balls, but Fellowes says that this time his story is not about class.
"Snobs is a lighter book, an easier read," he said in a telephone interview. "Snobs is, to a certain extent, about class, about modern class, whereas Past Imperfect is not about class, it's about time and what time does to lives.
"In youth we are all dreaming of the wonderful lives we are going to have and part of growing old is coming to terms with what actually happens."
The action in Past Imperfect switches between the late '60s and the present. Fellowes chose the timeframe because, he said, 1969 was the year of Woodstock and the peak of what have become known as the "Swinging Sixties."
While social conventions at the time were changing for good, not everyone saw the upheaval coming.
"Looking back, I realize there was hardly a parent there who thought their daughters' future would be anything more than an extended repeat of their own present," the narrator says of a society ball in London.
"How can they have been so secure in their expectations? Didn't it occur to them that more change might be on its way?" Continued...

I can't wait to see his reply. I'd encourage others to e-mail the seller with similar "interested" inquiries. This could be fun!

I always wonder about people who put stuff like that on their cars. They're just asking to have their butts handed to them every time someone driving a car with actual power wants to play with them.
That is crazy stupid, but the sad thing is there is some kid at home willing to take his credit card and "bolt on" (wait TAPE ON) some real hp. Oh well not only does it look fake but when the belt isnt moving I think it might give it away. And with the "fins" on the top...no EFI blown car I've ever saw had those on. Just old street rods. Oh well......JUNK

Jeebus! The front of it doesn't even tape down all the way!! for $175 you would at least expect it to fit!!!!! I wanna put one on my roof.... that would confuse so many people i'm sure!
A lot of people must be interested in this POS. Did you see the counter on the page Unless people like me hit it multiple times seeing if the Qty is going down. Yeah I might do away with the roof scoop/vent mod and get me a blower.
People keep hitting the page because a thread similar to this one is probably on every other car's forum!!

Pulleys, starting with a lightweight crank pulley, it supposedly gives better reaction to throttle. You could get a turbo, I know for a fact they have turbo kits for the 2.2L I've seen it done, but they had the motor sleeved to handle the boost. If you aren't going to spend that kind of money then I wouldn't push more than 5 pounds of boost. If it was mine I would go with a turbo, pulleys, cold air intake, and exhaust.
supercharger from ion redline. (and ECU) get on at salvage
else you can spend buttloads on a turbo.
i feel your pain. my saturn ion is hilariously slow. its too heavy of a car.
shifter feels like shit too. its so clunky. gm pretty much screwed the goat on these small cars.
2.2 is pretty much garbage as far as im concerned. feels like its gonna fall apart after it hits 3000 rpm
all you can do is try some mods. maybe port the head, high flow exhaust and headers, lose weight.
If you're not willing to spend that much money, you can consider a cat-back exhaust, intake mods, possibly cams and a BCM re-tune to make additional power.
If you're looking to boost the 2.2, in my opinion the easiest way to go about doing it is not a turbo - its with a magnusun supercharger for the 2.2/2.4 Ecotecs. It packages better than the turbos - not that a turbo mod can't be done - the supercharger will fit better in the cramped engine compartment. If you have a pre-VVT 2.2 (an L61, or the Ecotec in the older cobalt, you have a better chance to make power; the LAP (09 and new 'balts) have VVT, which makes it harder to make boosted power. Reason being, the VVT tends to get "strange" when you try to do the tune for boost. You can get to about 270-280 hp without running into reliability issues.
For all that money, though, you can consider looking for a donor engine from a SS/SC or Redline
Either way, your best source of information is to go to www.cobaltss.net. Go to the forums and look for the information regarding boosting up ecotecs - there's several people who have done so.

Caught up in a wave of anti-gun-rights propaganda and irrational sentiment, the Colorado Legislature will vote today on unconstitutional and pointless anti-gun-rights bills. Among the four anti-gun-rights bills are a ban on magazines greater in capacity than 15 rounds and a requirement for criminal background checks even for private transfers of weapons. Of course, these bills will not prevent a single crime or shooting tragedy; they merely criminalize the lives of decent citizens. Further, since the background check bill is patently unenforceable, it is an obvious stepping stone to gun registration, the real goal of anti-gunners. Nobody should be surprised that once the Democrats took all the reins of power in Colorado, they immediately moved to strip citizens of their gun rights as their first priority. Colorado gerrymandering protects some fairly radical leftists who instinctively hate personal responsibility, especially as expressed in the right to self-defense. The surprise is that Gov. "Hick" Hickenlooper plans to sign the transparently fascist bills into law. The best explanation is that Hick is running for President.
Hick, for those outside of Denver, is not an actual hick. He is a former oil man and restaurateur. Personally he is an elitist, arrogant to the point of being funny, and with no interest or sympathy to anyone beyond his political ambitions. He is a serial tax raiser with an extremely leftist and paternal agenda. However, the far-left Denver Post routinely describes him as a "moderate." Publicly, Hick courts an image that is a mixture of Western style and geeky aw-shucks charm, but he is really an exceptionally driven politician who has always boxed above his weight. Why, then, did he voluntarily stick his nose into a divisive issue that has always proven to be a loser for Democrats, especially in the West?
Colorado is a divided state. Urban centers such as Denver and Boulder are extreme-Left. Few outsiders realize that these cities are as far left as the North East or California. Denver has produced the socialist, and unhinged, Reps. Schroeder and DeGette. Boulder is the home of Ward Churchill, the professor who lied about being Indian and who called the 9/11 victims "little Eichmanns" because their work supported the evils of US capitalism. Most of the rest of Colorado is center-right, along with other Western States. State wide elections cannot be won solely with the lunatic-left urban vote, hence CO's US Senators' avoiding the gun issue with all their might. Hick, by comparison, initiated the gun debate in CO a few days before the CT tragedy. Hick's predecessor's union pandering forced him to not seek a second term, so Hick's volunteering for the gun debate is curious politics at best. No polling exists, but Hick has probably abandoned an easy reelection for a toss-up against a gun-rights Republican.
Hick does not make these kinds of mistakes, and he has never been so bold about anything other than parking meter fees. Either he has gone crazy hanging-out with Hollywood and Washington leftists, or he has focused his sights outside of Colorado.
The conventional Democrat political wisdom is that the GOP is smashed and irrelevant. True or not, most Dems think the real 2016 Presidential Election is the Democrat primary. The US is lurching hard to the left, and Dems are falling over themselves to repudiate moderates like Pres. Clinton and align with socialists like Pres. Obama. Gov. Cuomo recently signed the most unconstitutional and disturbingly fascist gun law ever. Even GOP pols like Gov. Christie are shifting left, presumably to sail this new wind. These governors are national figures who are quite likely to run for President, so why is a backwater governor of a smallish state following their lead? Hick is aligning with the rest of the hard-left presidential field.
Hick wants to be President. He knows that Western Democrat money and votes for such an enterprise are in short supply, so his politics are mirroring the deep blue states along the coasts. Hick does not care what Coloradans want; he wants to be able to share a pleasant meal with Mayor Bloomberg, the extreme collectivist. Should Hick also come out against the Keystone-XL pipeline, his national ambitions may as well be painted on an Occupy Wall Street banner. Of course, the interests of Coloradans who want to live freely and exercise their natural and constitutional rights are merely stepping stones along his way.

The writer of a new play about the experience of Romanians in the UK hopes it will challenge the negative stereotype.
Carla Grauls a Belgian South African who has lived in London for eight years, said Occupied was based on her own experience of living in Romania, where she met people interested in moving here to work — but few who knew anything about the welfare system. "Coming back here to the view that people were coming over for benefits was quite surprising," said Grauls, 34, who lives in Hornsey.
The play is a dark comedy in which two Romanian immigrants, driven by a desire for belonging, kidnap an Englishman in order to learn how to be English.
Occupied previews from April 1 and runs until April 26 at Theatre503 at the Latchmere Pub in Battersea. theatre503.com

State Police are asking for the public's help with an investigation into the stabbing of a woman Monday night.
An unnamed 33-year-old woman from Readfield was driving along the McCrillis Corner Rd. near the Wilton-Chesterville town line when her black 2006 Suzuki broke down.
The woman told troopers that a man driving a white Chevrolet pickup stopped to offer help and assaulted her.
The man is described as 5'10" with a slender build, a goatee, and wearing a mad bomber hat.
State and Wilton police are asking for anyone who was in that area between 7:00 pm and 9:15 pm Monday night to call the Augusta State Police at 624-7076 or the Wilton P.D. at 645-4222.

First tiling job- last minute feedback sought
I'm ready to apply tile to my 5X7' bathroom floor.
I didn't quite prepare the subfloor as Angus recommended, so if you're reading this Angus, I apologize.
I did a very nice durock job, nice tight seams, carefully cut around pipes and such. However, one piece has a bit of a bow down in one area of about a square foot or two. I did my best to shim this underneath the CBU, but it still looks significantly bowed. In my humble opinion it is solidly supported, althought definitely not pretty underneath. The only thing it's spanning is a few edges of shims at the most 1/8" thick.
1) Can I address this low spot in the floor with mud before I set my tiles? Do I apply extra thinset in this area in an attempt to level it out?
This is the area at the end of the tub, so it won't be really noticeable.
2) Do I need to pull up the CBU and do a better job of shimming/leveling? It's already screwed down, but I guess I could pull it.
I don't think it can be done any better with shims, because it's needed from more than one side, and there's no way to fill in the middle of two rows of shims without leaving a thicker edge that doesn't taper.
Long story short, this is part of the area where I had to patch the floor. Nothing quite lined up, new floor was thinner than old, etc.. Even the old floor is kind of all over the place. IN general the durock is very flat and close to level in both directions. Just this one spot bugs me. If you guys tell me eto forget about, I'm fine with it.
2) Any advice in terms of where to start tiling in the room, and how to lay it out?
I'm using 5/8' X 5/8" mosaic tiles that come in a square foot grid. I suspect I won't need to cut any of the tile itself (just cut the backing and remove pieces as needed), but I am concerned with how to get a uniform look and not like a I smacked down a bunch of square foot units.
Should I use spacers between each piece?
Do I start on one wall? in the middle of the room?
3) How soon after setting the tiles do I apply the grout? How soon after that do I seal the grout and tiles?
Thanks to all, and to all a Buon Cappo D'anno.
:) Take it Angus:)
I'm not a tile guy but from what i have read you should use thinset under your backer board to fill any voids and totally support the backer board.
2 Attachment(s)
I always use thinset under my backerboard for just that reason. You really don't want to have any bounce or movement. In your case, you are using very small mosaic tile, which will be good in the fact that you won't have a tile crack, however you will have a lot of grout in between those tiles which will potentially crack and chip out over time from floor flexing. If you still haven't started, I'd pull up the questionable piece at the very least and slap some thinset under it vs. being sorry later.
As for how to start... you never just want to pick a wall and go for it. Careful planning is 99% of a good tile job. Depending on the age of the home, walls are rarely square with each other, especially in bathrooms for some reason. I usually will measure a foot or so (depending on the tile and grout width chosen) off of one wall at two locations and strike a line the length of the room. Then I will use a framing square and mark a new line perpendicular to the first, one foot off of the adjacent wall. (See photo below) You also need to check opposing walls for parallelism. Some rooms have a square corner but the walls across from one another converge at one end, (Kinda make a shallow V shape.) Always square off of the wall that people will see... for example, if you are doing a bathroom that is out of square, try to have your tile parallel to the visible walls, and have the errant runout against the wall that has things like the vanity, and toilet. (Things to break up the line...) In the first photo, there are pencil lines 12 1/4 inches off of the wall and bathtub... that's where my first row of tile goes, following those two lines to make an L shape. The second photo is the finished job.
A couple of parting notes: #1) I would use spacers that are the same size as your mosaic spaces (probably 1/8 to 1/4") to blend the tiles together. #2) You will probably want to use a 3/16" notch trowel for your thinset, there will be a lot of thinset squeezing up between all of those grout spaces... you picked a challenging tile for your first job. #3) Dry lay your first row (without thinset) and make sure everything lays up the way you plan and make adjustments as needed. This will be your anchor row that everything feeds off of. #4) Depending on what thinset you use, 24 hours after the last tile is placed is usually sufficient to wait for grouting. I've waited far less (tile and grout in the same day) on jobs where I used fast setting mortars, but I would recommend using the manufacturers guidelines. #5) I usually wait 3 to 5 days before sealing unless the homeowners absolutely have to use the shower, or heavily use the floor before that. (only bathroom , etc...) I hope this helps... feel free to e-mail me with any further questions.
Actually, Durock states to use thinset under ALL, not just some of the panels on the floor.
You don't use thinset over CBU to make up for any dips in the floor..that should be taken care of underneath with an appropriate product.
You definitely didn't take my advice but I think you went a bit further and did almost every aspect wrong...at least sounds like it.
I tried. :surrender:
Am I mis-reading this?:)

Redscout Presents Spur Episode 4: The Clients Relationship With Planning. Is Planning Handicapped By Advertising?
Over the next two months, PSFK will be hosting Redscout's SPUR video series. It will explore the intersection of brands, strategy, innovation and the world of account planning. We hope to spark a lively discussion, and inspire those working in the field.
Please visit Redscouts Vimeo page t0 watch all of the SPUR episodes.
Our first three episodes looked at how planners see planning and how the industry sees planning. In our fourth episode, we explore clients relationship with planning and how the craft is valued overall.
Clients are getting what they want from agencies, but are clients getting what they need from planners? What are they paying for and what are they getting? We also ask the question, is the value of planning limited by what advertising or communications inherently provides? To a hammer, is everything a nail?
Simple questions that cut to the core of the traditional agency model. All agree that the potential is to go further upstream and truly impact a Clients business. And that, somehow, planning may be trapped within a potentially out-dated and self-perpetuating model.

Bram Stoker's Dracula
The primary theme for the trumps in this deck is Bram Stoker's Dracula, a novel which holds a unique place in popular culture. Although Stoker's novel has been well known, since its publication in 1897, it has been continuously reinterpreted, like a modern passion play. Dracula is especially well suited to this adaptation because it seems to be directly influenced by the Tarot. Stoker's biographer, Barbara Belford, among others, definitely believes that Stoker was familiar with the Tarot and based many of the characters in Dracula on Tarot trumps. In the 1890s when Stoker was writing most people in England were not familiar with the Tarot but Stoker was not like most people. Stoker was friends with two founding members of the Golden Dawn, the occult society that introduced the Tarot to England and he was a life-long friend of Pamela Colman Smith, the famous Tarot designer. Pamela Colman Smith is included as one of the queens and other artists and authors who influenced Stoker can also be found on royal cards.

Medical Lake ends 2012 on quiet note
Some streets will receive needed chip seals in 2013
By JAMES EIK
Staff Reporter
The Medical Lake City Council went in to the last meeting of the year with a small agenda, but with some important housekeeping items.
Some positive budget news came in, according to Finance Director Jennifer Hough, as the city's general fund appeared healthier than expected. The unanticipated funds were a welcome sight at the meeting, especially on the heels of passing next year's budget.
"It's nice to see a little more money than we had anticipated," City Administrator Doug Ross.
The city has been operating under a spending freeze for the last part of the year, only purchasing critical items for its operation. Mayor John Higgins said that same scenario was likely to continue, as he mentioned at a previous council meeting, for the first part of next year.
"Even though we're probably doing better than we thought, I'm probably going to keep the spending at a minimum for the first quarter," he said.
The city will be adding an online application process for its utilities discount for seniors and disabled residents. Ross said the program is accessible for those 62 years old and above, and who meet 50 percent of the medium household income for the Spokane region, which is $30,100.
Residents qualifying for the program receive a 25 percent reduction in their base rates.
Councilman Art Kulibert was appointed as Medical Lake's representative to Spokane Transit Authority's small cities board, with Airway Heights Mayor Patrick Rushing serving as an alternate.
The City Council approved an agreement with the McMullen Law Office for legal representation. The contract lasts until Dec. 31, 2018, and can be renewed for additional one-year periods.
Some streets in Medical Lake will see chip sealing next year, courtesy of the Transportation Improvement Board. Jefferson, Fourth and Lake Street will all see some upgrades next year, likely later in the summer. Ross received an estimate earlier in the day, showing the work was going to cost around $182,000 for the TIB.
"It's really nice to see it actually happening," Ross said. "We have confirmation that it's actually happening."
Keeping with the holiday season, Fire Chief Jeff Estes said Santa's sleigh will be out in the town Wednesday evening through Friday evening.
Ross reiterated that City Planner Glenn Scholten was retiring at the end of the month, and was busy finishing up some projects before leaving.
The first council meeting in January 2013 was cancelled, as it falls on New Year's Day. As such, the next City Council meeting will take place Monday, Jan. 15 at 6:30 p.m. in the council chambers.

Dry taps and open sewers: welcome to India's "Millennium City"
By Annie Banerji
GURGAON, India (Reuters) - Sarika Kapoor lives in a spacious home in one of the wealthiest cities in India. But something as simple as having a shower is fraught with problems.
Most days there is just a trickle of water from the taps and sometimes even that dries up before noon. The 56-year-old has often had to scurry to a neighbor across a potholed road to borrow a bucket of water and haul it back to her rented $300,000 home, sweat rolling down her face.
"Every morning I have to decide whether I want the upper half of my body clean or my lower half. With the amount of water we get, it's impossible to take a full-body bath," Kapoor said, sitting in her large, well-lit living room.
Welcome to Gurgaon, a city of wealthy urban professionals with gleaming shopping malls, five-star hotels and sprawling golf courses on the southern outskirts of New Delhi that is a symbol of newly affluent India.
But crippling power and water shortages, crater-riddled roads and open sewage drains have made it an extreme example of the poor infrastructure that is constraining growth in Asia's third-largest economy.
"Gurgaon is just a symbol of beautiful buildings. Otherwise it's rubbish," said P.K. Jain, the founder-president of the Gurgaon Chamber of Commerce and Industry. "Ultimately, the town is going to collapse."
Alongside the towering residential condominiums are glass and steel office blocks. The India offices of some of the world's best known companies are here, including Microsoft Corp, Google Inc. and agribusiness giant Cargill Inc.
But public infrastructure has failed to keep pace with the rapid growth unleashed by landmark economic reforms in 1991. Continued...

A co-founder of the legendary Actors' Studio in New York, Robert Lewis coached such stars as Marlon Brando and Meryl Streep. His work as a theatre director included the original Broadway productions of Brigadoon and The Teahouse of the August Moon, while as an actor he is remembered as the Oriental merchant who woos Lucille Bremer in one of the film musical's crowning glories, the Limehouse Blues sequence in Ziegfeld Follies.
Born in New York City in 1909, Lewis studied cello at the Juilliard School of Music before deciding he would rather be an actor, though his short and rotund stature precluded romantic leads. He made his first appearance on stage with the Civic Repertory Theatre in 1929, and two years later joined the Group Theatre Acting Company, newly formed by Lee Strasberg, Cheryl Crawford and Harold Clurman and noted for its adherence to the acting theories of Stanislavski. Lewis played his first sizeable role as a comic intern in Sidney Kingsley's Men in White (1934).
The same year one of the group's members, Clifford Odets, wrote a play about union corruption, Waiting for Lefty, which caused a sensation and which featured Lewis as a labour spy exposed at a union meeting by his brother (Elia Kazan). Odets became the group's prime playwright, and in 1937 wrote their biggest success, Golden Boy, in which Lewis played the prizefight promoter Roxy Gottlieb. When the company performed the play in London, the critic James Agate wrote, "The acting attains a level which is something we know nothing at all about."
After making his directorial debut with the touring company of Golden Boy starring Phillips Holmes, Lewis was given a new production, William Saroyan's My Heart's in the Highlands, into which he instilled a mixture of music, colour, rhythm and movement which he felt was sometimes lacking in group productions with their emphasis on psychology.
Saroyan's account of a poet's attempts to create in a hostile world, and how people are nourished by art, remained Lewis's favourite throughout his life ("my firstborn"). The next three years though were frustrating ones - he was fired by the Theatre Guild as director of Saroyan's The Time of Your Life (the chief of the Guild told him, "After you and Orson Welles, no more geniuses!"), and directed two failures, John Garfield in Heavenly Express and Montgomery Clift (a lifelong friend) in Mexican Mural. When the Group Theatre disbanded through lack of funding in 1941 he spent a year as a professor at the Yale School of Drama, then went to Hollywood as dialogue director/actor at Fox.
He made his screen debut in John Brahm's Tonight We Raid Calais (1942) as a French collaborator, then played a Nazi colonel in Paris After Dark (1943). Moving to MGM, where he directed several screen tests including that of Cyd Charisse, he was cast as a Japanese villain ("I had an uncanny way of looking genuinely Oriental") in Dragon Seed (1944), which inspired Vincente Minnelli to use him in a framing section for the Limehouse Blues number in Ziegfeld Follies (shot in 1944 but released in 1946). In this magnificent sequence, Lewis (as a Chinese merchant who flirts with Lucille Bremer in the sidestreets of London's docklands) devised an effective bit of business in which he discarded a cigarette with one hand while with a cane in the other he viciously slashed at it.
But the studio ignored his requests to direct a feature, and after playing a German officer snarled at by the canine star of Son of Lassie (1945), he left MGM and accepted a role offered by his friend Charlie Chaplin in Monsieur Verdoux (1947). As Botello, the chemist from whom the wife- murderer Verdoux buys poison, he found Chaplin the perfect director. "He gave me one direction: `He's the kind of bore who doesn't talk. He lectures.' That was all I needed. I could start building a character inside and out from the one apt image Charlie gave me."
Lewis then returned to Broadway to direct his first smash hit, the musical Brigadoon. The librettist Alan Jay Lerner later recalled that when Lewis first asked him what the show was about he had responded with a description of the story, to which Lewis replied, "That is not what you have written at all. What you have written is the story of a romantic who is searching and a cynic who has given up. In the end cynicism is proved wrong." Lerner credits this insight with enabling him to deal with imperfections in the script and complete the final draft. (The two men were to have less harmonious relations 18 years later, when Lerner refused Lewis's pleas that he cut and re-shape the libretto for On a Clear Day You Can See Forever.)
Lewis and Elia Kazan had long dreamed of starting something similar to the defunct Group Theatre, and in 1947 created, with Cheryl Crawford as administrator, the Actors' Studio, a workshop where talented actors could get together (for no fee) and practise their craft. Kazan worked with younger actors on technique, while Lewis took those with experience and rehearsed scenes with particular emphasis on subtext. Actors in Lewis's initial classes included Brando, Montgomery Clift, Anne Bancroft, Eli Wallach, Jerome Robbins, Maureen Stapleton and Patricia Neal, who failed to find favour with her coach. "It was deadly between us," she later wrote, "real hate. According to him, everything I did was wrong", but she admits to "the prestige that went with being a founding member of the Studio".
After a year, Lewis resigned when he felt betrayed by Kazan over a theatre project. Having been offered direction of the Kurt Weill/Alan Jay Lerner musical Love Life and, having strong doubts about the project, Lewis showed the script to Kazan, who advised against doing it. Lewis turned it down and it was offered to Kazan, who accepted. Lewis instead directed Marc Blitzstein's Regina (1949), an operatic treatment of The Little Foxes, and was praised for the convincing performances he extracted from the singing cast. "For once," said Brooks Atkinson, "the operatic form in which most of the dialogue is sung does not seem artificial." It was the start of a prolific period throughout the Fifties, including his direction in 1950 of Samuel Taylor's hit comedy The Happy Time and Ibsen's An Enemy of the People, for which Lewis persuaded Arthur Miller to do a new translation.
In 1952 he directed Truman Capote's first play The Grass Harp and the following year John Patrick's successful comedy The Teahouse of the August Moon. (As with Brigadoon, Lewis staged the West End production - both shows at Her Majesty's Theatre.) After the Broadway version of Agatha Christie's Witness for the Prosecution (1954), Lewis directed his only film, the Bing Crosby musical Anything Goes (1955), distinguished by the superb dancing of Donald O'Connor, Mitzi Gaynor and Zizi Jeanmaire.
He returned to the musical theatre with Jamaica (1957) starring Lena Horne. Lewis solved the show's book problems (it had first been conceived for Harry Belafonte) by putting Horne "front and centre most of the time, which is what audiences wanted to see and hear". He directed the London version of Candide (1959), but from the mid-Sixties worked away from the mainstream, directing shows and workshops both in America and abroad, teaching at Yale (where he became Chairman of the Acting and Directing Departments and coached Meryl Streep and Sigourney Weaver) and running his own Robert Lewis Theatre Workshop, which started in 1952 and lasted until his retirement in 1974.
In 1957 he gave a series of lectures "Method - or Madness", an attempt to clarify the confusion surrounding the Stanislavski style, which was later published successfully in both the US and England, and in 1984 he wrote his autobiography, Slings and Arrows. The actor-turned-director Martin Ritt, who was one of his pupils, said, "With Bobby there was a joy in his work - fun, which, corisidering that the work was always on a high level, is a very significant achievement."

*** E46 M3 Alternator DIY ***

My Ride: Black 328 CI

Done this on my car 156kmiles done as I was getting a flashing battery light on the dash, read up some stuff and forum members were pointing at the Voltage regulator on the alternator. In the end I bought a new alternator at a cost of £154 with a £30 refund when I return my old unit.
Anyway I used the op to help me out taking the alternator out except for I didn't have to remove everything mentioned only the fan housing for better access and the air scoop and air filter, I then got easy access to the Alt. Took me no time at all about 30 mins in total. I also took the benefit of fitting new belts as the serpentine belt was cracked all the way round, so good job really.
Just to confirm on my model 2000 328CI I had the Torx 50 bolts in the tensioners as some have mentioned an Allen head bolt in there..also the serpentine belt tensioner was stiffer than the AC one so watch the Torx Head socket doesn't come out as you could easily damage the radiator matrix, so take your time on that one..The AC tensioner was easy..
Thanks for OP for starting this thread..the E46 forum comes to assistance again..thanks.

That screw probably is threaded to Whitworth specifications, a system peculiar to Great Britain before they converted to the Metric System.
It is quite unlikely that you would find a Whitworth screw here in the US, or even Whitworth taps and dies. You might try a gunsmith or parts house in Britain, if there are any left. Ask Google for leads, and you might get lucky.
One of the "features" of the Whitworth System is that the form of a Whitworth screw's threads does not resist vibration well, and it tends to come undone.
Back in the day, those of us involved with sports cars said that, "if you own a British car, you should purchase the accessory lock-washer kit," "you should go around the car on a weekly basis, tightening up all those Whitworth screws," and "every part that fell off onto the street was built with impeccable British engineering."
I once owned an Enfield like yours. It was a nice, comfortable pistol which fired a cartridge a little less powerful than what I felt to be useful. There was a very cleverly designed conversion kit which temporarily made the revolver into a .22 LR rimfire by replacing its cylinder and lining its barrel. The conversion took all of five minutes to install or remove, and it was acceptably accurate even though the fired bullet transitioned from cylinder to barrel liner at an angle (to accommodate the rimfire cartridge to the centerfire hammer).

It's easy to forget what you love about winter when you're scraping ice from your windshield or bracing yourself against howling winds. We've rounded up some amazing chowders to help you celebrate the joy of curling up with a cup of hearty soup at the end of a chilly day.
Salmon-Clam Chowder
Cheese lovers rejoice! Smoked mozzarella, flaked smoked salmon, and chunks of fresh carrot put a spin on traditional clam chowder.
Clam Chowder
Classic Maine chowder includes potatoes, steamer clams, and, yes, bacon. We suggest a crusty French loaf for dunking, and a designated line for second helpings.
Island Clam Chowder
Rhode Islanders substitute cubed pork for bacon and add tomatoes for extra tang. Shucked, hard-shell clams and a good pinch of basil reinforce the mantra that "different is good."
Potato-Crab Chowder
Serve this easy New England-style recipe and your guests will applaud. Red-skin potatoes and lump crabmeat produce a rich, creamy soup―and you won't believe it's low fat!
The unique combination of corn, catfish, and chicken broth creates a thin chowder―ideal for lunch or an appetizer. Potato flakes and yummy bacon contribute to a classic taste everyone will enjoy.

During the early 1930s, Archie D. Headen was serving under the pastorate of the late Elder Booker in Steubenville, Ohio. It was there he accepted the great plan of salvation, and received the baptism of the Holy Ghost. In 1935, he was called and commissioned by God to go into all the world and preach the Gospel. At that time, he was residing in Stirrat, West Virginia and employed as a coal miner. In August of 1938, the young Elder Headen moved from West Virginia seeking greener pastures. He finally settled in Washington, D.C. and joined with the late Elder Cannon of the Church of God in Christ. In September 1939, Elder Headen was directed by God to take a streetcar to a heavily wooded section of northeast, known as Deanwood. Upon arriving in Deanwood, still being led of God as to what actions to take, he inquired of a woman passing by about a place to start a church. Initially, she balked at the request, but did inform Elder Headen about an available property on Lane Place, NE. So in mid-September 1939, Pastor Headen opened the doors of Mt. Pisgah Church of God in Christ. For one entire year, Elder Headen worshiped alone – his prayer was, "Lord, send on."
The Lord answered and many souls were added to the church. After God gave one of the members, Sister Cora Cash, a dream of the church as a filling station and a place of refreshing, Elder Headen was led to change the name of the church to "Refreshing Spring." He was directed by God to build the first permanent church structure in the Washington, D.C. Jurisdiction, at 4407 Lee Street, NE. The anointing and power of God at work in the ministry soon became known all over the city. Many people came from far and near, from other churches, the young and old – all to get a spiritual drink from the "Refreshing Spring." The membership outgrew the Deanwood church's capacity and moved to a second location at 532 Eighth Street, NE, also called the "Upper Room." Here, a weekly, Sunday afternoon radio broadcast was started, with the theme "Looking Up to Jesus." Signs and wonders were common in the church, the sick were healed, the dead were raised, and the lost were saved. Soon, the church outgrew the Upper Room. The third place of worship was 1350 Maryland Avenue, NE, in the heart of Capitol Hill. Many looked forward to the radio broadcast, Elder Headen's powerful preaching and the Refreshing Spring choirs. Saints from other churches would come from their services to Refreshing Spring, just to sit in on the broadcast. Elder Headen considered plans to expand at Maryland Avenue, but the Lord spoke to him and said, "this is not your rest."
In 1976, Refreshing Spring moved to a fourth location at 6200 Riverdale Road in Riverdale, Maryland. Initially, it was unknown to the Refreshing Spring family at large that a new church home in Maryland had been secured. The Pastor called a special business meeting. At the conclusion of the meeting, the saints were taken to a church in Riverdale. The saints thought that they were there to worship with another congregation, but were informed that "this is now your church." Most of the members resided in the District; Maryland was unfamiliar territory. The community then was not very diverse and an all African-American congregation moving into a state-of -the-art edifice in Riverdale was big news. Once again Refreshing Spring made the local news and history. Moving into the former Riverdale Baptist Church, Refreshing Spring became the largest African-American Pentecostal church in the region. Over the years, Refreshing Spring continued to do God's work and impact the community; establishing a bus ministry, clothing closet, homeless outreach and a special ministry to the local Vietnamese community.
Even as a young child, James Jordan, Jr. always had a special attachment to Pastor Headen; he would plead with his parents to go home with Pastor Headen every Sunday. Later as an adult Minister and Elder he served Elder Headen faithfully. He was even given an opportunity to become the Pastor of a Church in West Virginia, which he took with permission from Elder Headen. When the Pastor of the church in West Virginia recovered from his illness and decided to resume his role as Pastor, Elder Jordan returned home. Pastor Headen let him know that it was Elder Jordan's decision to leave and not his. Following his return to the Refreshing Spring Church of God in Christ, Pastor Headen appointed Elder Jordan as the Assistant Pastor. In 1995, Founding Pastor Archie D. Headen went home to be with the Lord and Assistant Pastor James E. Jordan, Jr. was appointed Pastor. From that time forward, the mission of his ministry is to establish a desire in the hearts of men and women for the Word of God as the foundation for personal salvation and discipleship. Pastor Jordan is committed to equipping the saints for the work of the ministry focused on the Whole Man – spirit, soul, and body.
This vision is fulfilled through the development of our satellite ministries serving Branchwood Towers, Owings Mill – Heart Spring Ministries, and Spellman House; and two associated ministries, Praise and Fellowship Church of God in Christ and Agape Buchanan-Featherstone Memorial Tabernacle Church of God in Christ. The church has prison and homeless ministries and has created a Community Development Corporation called Sowing Empowerment & Economic Development Inc., (SEED). The CDC consists of a local Food Pantry, which partners with government and independent agencies, as well as a clothing closet. All programs function to extend the Kingdom of God by working to aid in freeing people from all that binds them. Refreshing Spring also serves the community through the Refreshing Spring Bible Institute, the SEED Learning Academy (SLA) and Neighborhood Tutoring & Technology Program; and a summer youth camp and annual health and career fairs. The Spring sponsors a four year College Scholarship Program, "Blessing for the Children". Since the institution of this program we have one recipient graduate and four recipient students currently enrolled. The Helen Jo-An King Scholarship Fund provides a one time monetary gift to every high school graduate annually. Refreshing Spring owns and operates the Refreshing Spring Office Building, which houses many ministries of the church in addition to local businesses.
Pastor Jordan serves as the Administrative Assistant for Budget and Finance for the Greater Maryland First Jurisdiction under the leadership of Bishop Joel H. Lyles; Chairman of the Board of the S.E.E.D. Community Development Corporation, and oversees the development of the Refreshing Spring Family Life Center. He serves on the executive board of the Collective Banking Group of Prince George's County and the Riverdale Ministerial Alliance. In addition, Refreshing Spring has initiated a Ministerial Certification Program for Ministers and Elders.
Pastor Jordan lives by Proverbs 3:5-6: "Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding. In all thy ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct they paths."

Student Success Story
Freshman finds fellow explorers at AU
Freshman Nora Morse came to American University from Alaska itching for adventure. And that's exactly what she got as one of 100 or so students in AU's new learning communities project.
Rick Stack, of the School of Communications, co-taught the Crime and the Media community. Watching 16 strangers transform themselves into a "community of interest," he says, was something. "Outside of the classroom, they're hosting potlucks and going to museums and movies together," he says. "They're a bright group of students and I know they're picking each other's brains for all it's worth."
Morse can vouch for that. She and her 15 partners in crime and media explored the Newseum, toured the District's police agencies, and visited the Supreme Court–twice. And they shared the magic of seminars with two of AU's powerhouse professors. The friends she made during this intense experience, says Morse, "will last through college and beyond."
AU launched this innovative project in fall 2008 as an extension of the University College. Students with a common interest, from politics to sustainability, are grouped together for a semester. A professor leads each group with the goal of sparking exploration, debate, and collaboration.
"This has been an amazing experience," Morse said. "My only complaint is that it's ending too soon."

Apathy biggest bar to ending child slavery: Nobel prize winner
By Balazs Koranyi
OSLO (Reuters) - Apathy is the biggest obstacle to eliminating forced child labor and the world needs more secular education to reduce intolerance, Nobel Peace Prize winner Kailash Satyarthi said on Tuesday.
In Oslo, where he will receive the award on Wednesday, Satyarthi told Reuters the problem was not religion itself but people who hide behind it for economic and political gain.
"Education brings tolerance to societies, which brings peace, global brotherhood and mutual respect for each other," Satyarthi, 60, from India, said.
"There should be more value-oriented education with more human values," said Satyarthi, who won this year's Nobel Peace Prize with Pakistani teenager Malala Yousafzai for their fight against the oppression of children and their right to education.
The United Nations estimates that around 150 million children are routinely engaged in paid or unpaid work with children in sub-Saharan Africa at greatest risk, where up to a quarter of those aged between 5 and 14 are forced to work.
"The single biggest difficulty has been apathy," Satyarthi said. "People are getting more and more materialistic and more consumeristic."
He said there was a lack of compassion around the world for the poorest and most vulnerable in society, who lacked the means and power to help themselves.
Education has been a major issue in India since the Hindu nationalist government came to power in May, with critics citing a move to teach the superiority of Hindu values and mythology at the cost of academic rigor, going against the grain of secularism that runs through multi-faith modern India.

Illustrations for pre-Christian art are grand, but for European art? we haven't enough time to redraw the Mona Lisa? i'm really confused about European Art illustrations
A quick sketch will do making sure you show the composition (where everything is positioned in the painting) and the most important thing is to label your sketch- pointing out anything you have mentioned in the answer. If you have time at the end of the exam go back and put in more shading and detail but don't waste too much time if you have not fully answered the question. Hope this helps!

Pilgrims crowd Bethlehem on warm Christmas eve
By Erika Solomon
BETHLEHEM, West Bank (Reuters) - Thousands of pilgrims and dignitaries crowded into Bethlehem's Church of the Nativity for a Christmas Mass, where Latin Patriarch Fuad al-Tuwal urged visitors to return home bearing a message of peace for the Holy Land.
Entertaining crowds outside, bagpipers played carols and whirling dervishes danced, unfurling giant white skirts embroidered with the word peace in various languages.
Some 15,000 visitors packed into the stone flagged square opposite the small Door of Humility where pilgrims stoop to enter the multi-denominational church, built above the spot where Christians believe Jesus was born.
While much of North America and Europe were gripped in winter's icy embrace, visitors to Bethlehem were buying chilled fruit juice in Manger Square and stripping off sweaters in the mild weather.
"It's about 20 degrees (68 Fahrenheit) and it's a little hard to get that Christmas feeling I'm used to having," said Phillip Well, 22, from Germany.
Some tourists were bemused by the scene.
"I'm not used to seeing marching bands and scout troops do the Christmas festivities, but it's entertaining," said 40-year-old Vijey Raghavan, of San Francisco, California.
Inside the church at midnight mass, monks kept the celebrations traditional with Christmas hymns and al-Tuwal delivered a special Christmas message in six different languages, including Arabic. Continued...

As you can see by the new picture Scooter went canoeing for his first time this weekend. He loved to chase and catch the leaves as they floated down the river. He also tried to swim away one time which got him hooked up to the canoe. This was no anchor for him though. He just pulled the canoe right out into the river to get that leaf. Not only is he an amazing swimmer but he can run through the woods now. It was fun to watch and see where his nose would take him. Then I would call for him and he would come back running to me at full speed every time. It was so much fun.
There is another Brittany in the neighborhood. Her owner is also a dog groomer. Lately I have been way too hot to take a long walk and it was obvious I needed a trim to cool off. Today I had my first "Brittany" hair cut. I have extra freckles now and my butt looks extra fuzzy. I still refuse to get my belly groomed. No way! It just so happens that my groomer owns my girlfriend. I have not played with another Brittany since my brothers and sisters. I was crazy. We barked to each other and ran together. I've played with many other dogs but I'm not sure I have ever had so much fun. I did not want to go home. I'm ready to celebrate 4th of July at the farm now. I don't mind loud bangs at all. I'd probably be perfect for hunting but I'm happy just being a family dog.
