These contributions may be found by search engines and accessible worldwide even without specifically calling up this website.
Safety notice
We take all kinds of technical and organizational measures to store your personal data securely so that it is not accessible to third parties. If you communicate with us by email, complete data security cannot be guaranteed by us, so we recommend that you send us confidential information by post.
Right to cancel a purchase order
As a customer (a physical person who enters into a legal transaction for a purpose which is not part of their usual commercial or independent professional activity), you can cancel your contractual declaration in writing (e.g. letter, fax or email) within 14 days, without having to give any reasons for this, or by returning the goods to us. This period begins on the day on which you received the written cancellation instructions, but not before you have received the goods sent to you or to the recipient you specified for delivery (for repeated deliveries of similar goods, not before you have received the first partial delivery), and also not before the vendor has fulfilled its obligations to provide information in accordance with § 312c paragraph 2 of the German Civil Code (BGB) together with § 1 paragraphs 1, 2 and 4 of the Regulations on Obligations to Provide Information Based on the German Civil Code (BGB-InfoV) as well as its obligations based on § 312e paragraph 1 sentence 1 of the German Civil Code together with § 3 of the Regulations on Obligations to Provide Information Based on the German Civil Code.
Sending the cancellation or goods before this 14-day deadline expires is sufficient to ensure that the cancellation period is complied with. The cancellation must be sent to our postal address.
Consequences of a cancellation
In the event of a valid cancellation, the services and payments received by both parties must be returned. There is no obligation to pay compensation for the use of the goods or the value of the use. If you cannot return all or some of the goods to the vendor, or can only return them in a deteriorated condition, you must pay compensation to the vendor for their loss in value, if applicable. This does not apply to the return of goods if their deterioration was exclusively due to the way they were examined or tested - as might happen when goods are returned to a shop, for example. In addition, you are not obliged to pay compensation to the vendor for the loss in value of goods if their deterioration was caused through proper intended use if you did not use the goods as your own property and you did not do anything to cause their loss in value. Goods that can be sent as a parcel are returned at the vendor's own risk. You have to pay the costs of returning the goods to the vendor if the goods delivered to you were the goods you ordered, and if the price of the goods to be returned does not exceed €40, or if the price of the goods returned is higher but at the time of the cancellation you had not yet paid for them or made a contractually agreed part payment. Otherwise, you will not have to pay the costs of returning the goods to the vendor. Goods that cannot be sent in a parcel will be collected from you. Obligations to reimburse payments must be fulfilled within 30 days. This period starts for you on the day you send your declaration of cancellation or when you send the goods, and for the vendor this period begins when the cancellation or the returned goods are received.
Exclusion from the right of cancellation
Customers do not have a right to cancel a purchase order in cases where, for example, customized contracts for the supply of goods were agreed, or which were clearly tailor-made to suit individual requirements, or which are not suitable for returning to the vendor due to their condition, or which can be quickly spoiled or for which would exceed the expiry date, or for the delivery of audio or video recordings or software if the data carriers delivered have been unsealed by the customer, as well as for the delivery of newspapers and magazines, unless the customer has given a contractual declaration by telephone.
When services are provided, your right to cancellation will expire prematurely if the contract has been completely fulfilled by both parties at your explicit request before you have exercised your right to cancellation. This may mean that you must still fulfill your contractual payment obligations for the period up to the cancellation.
End of the cancellation instructions

For years now Corsair Memory has been one of the innovators of the memory industry with features that have captured the hearts and minds of enthusiasts around the world. When Corsair launched their XMS2 Pro series they introduced the first set of functional activity LED lights on memory modules. The XMS2 Pro series took off and anyone with a window in their case wanted some. Corsair rode the success of their XMS2 Pro series and tried to do one better with their XMS2 XPERT series, which happened to be the world's first memory module with a programmable LED display that monitors module real-time parametric data including current frequency, voltage and temperature. You could even program your own personal message that scrolls across the display saying whatever you wanted. With the XMS2 Pro and XMS2 XPERT series taking all the headlines it seemed for a while that Corsair was focused more on the case modders than the die hard overclockers that made the brand name Corsair what it is today ? a living legend.
It was around this time that the memory market started going heat spreader crazy. First it was Mushkin Memory with their FrostByte heat spreader in July of 2005 and then OCZ Technology followed close behind and in October 2005 launched XTC heat spreaders. Corsair on the other hand did some research in the labs against the OCZ XTC heat spreaders and published a report that their XMS Pro heat spreaders were basically superior to all others and didn't need a redesign.
We are pleased to inform you that Corsair has not forgotten about their overclocking roots and with the launch of the XMS2 DOMINATOR series Corsair proves they are still a powerhouse in the memory business. While other memory companies have designed new heat spreaders and sent them out to be manufactured, Corsair was busy at work trying to find the best method to whisk heat away from the memory IC's. They came up with a radical design that lengthens the PCB and exposes two (one on each side) unbroken ground planes in the PCB so a real heat sink can be attached to the exposed metal layers. They then designed a standard heat spreader with 'fins' on the top to fit on the memory IC's like any other heat spreader. You would think that four layers of cooling 'fins' would be more than enough for today's memory, but Corsair didn't stop there. They added an optional fan unit called the Corsair AIRFLOW that uses a combination of three 40mm fans to blow air across fins to better cool the module. By using their new radical design Corsair has been able to push the limits of memory by launching PC2-8888 memory, which means it runs 1111MHz at respectable timings of 4-4-4-12 2T.
The Corsair XMS2 Dominator series are said to be the first production DDR2 modules that feature true heat sinks. Having a standard heat spreader on your module to dissipate the heat is no longer the optimal way for heat to escape from a memory module now that Corsair has designed their slick new Dual-path Heat Xchange (DHX) design.
Since we already have done an article on the DHX technology we will cut to the chase and move on to the modules that we are looking at today.

Pack Shaman and wolf shifter, Reece, has been mated to Sean for years. Even though their love for each other is true…there has always been something left unspoken, something missing between them.
With Sean's hybrid body warring between his vampiric thirst and his wolf's need, he can't believe it when the one thing he secretly wants yet can't give his mate literally falls into his arms. How is he going to hold it together long enough to understand and accept the cost it brings, when all he can think about is getting five minutes alone with Reece?

techsupport needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 66 designs submitted by 21 freelance designers.
We are a startup company that does online ordering services for restaurants. We are currently redesigning our site and updating it to a new look and feel. Our designer is currently working on the website template and can not address the logo at this time.
Our current logo is here: http://www.readytoorder.com/testlogo.htm
We are looking for fresh new fonts and logo character, while preserving the idea of ordering from a menu. We would like to convey a sense of urgency to our customers in the logo, a sensation of movement or motion maybe with lines or blur (to a degree) because we are reaching to the idea of being hungry when ordering food. We are looking for something fun that could be as simple as having just the menu as the logo character. We want to remain faithful to the concept of being ready to order.
Because we are in the process of updating our site we need the design in black and white with grays, as our designer will be implementing the colors from the final website design.
We have had several updates to the design but feel its time to update again. We are looking for fresh new fonts and character, but preserving the current idea of ordering from a menu. We would like to convey some urgency in the logo, such as moving, movement, or motion with lines or blur (to a degree). We are looking for something more simple such as menu only but no character, but if can still create a sence of fun or that you are ready to order look on it, that is what we are looking for.
We need the design in black and white with greys. Our designer will implement the colors from his final website design.
* A Fresh modern look (as you can see our current logo seems quite outdated)
• Design in black and white with grays
• A sense of motion or movement
* A sense of rapid service
• It could use a menu as our current logo. If so, don't feel limited to the concept of a double page menu as we did (just don't make it look like a book) it can even be a single page, but make it look like a menu
• Think about the concept of online food ordering
• Target the urgency of buying /ordering food when you are hungry
* A fun, playful logo that could include a cartoonish character
* Use entire name of company "ReadyToOrder.com". The name can be broken into multiple lines as our current design
• If you prefer to focus more on the font part of the logo, please make sure that the name is clearly on top of the logo character or the item you chose to place the text on
* We want to convey a sense of fast ordering
* A fun cartoonish character would be nice (Maybe something like the godaddy.com logo character in terms of the feel of happiness, coolness)
* We contemplated the idea of having one hand on the menu while the other hand is raised with the character's index finger in the air like saying "I am ready to order". That was our main idea but we ended up having our little cartoon character hidden behind the menu, which is not what we wanted.
• Take the logo as made of two pieces, the first piece would be the text (font size and placement) and the second piece would be the logo character (menu or art)
- No forks, knifes or utensils
- No delivery ideas (some restaurant deliver others don't)
- No pizza boxes, we have all types of menus, not just pizza

The bridge scene, when those actors take heavy steps at the bridge, the camera shakes. My jaw dropped in that scene, never thought they'd anticipate that little detail.
AWESOME DANCE ANIMATION! The best I've ever seen! Do they make 2D motion capture or something?

Just a little info on Shamisen, the talking cat:
It is a male calico cat. If you are a feline lover, you know that is a rareity in itself.
It is named Shamisen out of a very bad pun www
Shamisen is a traditional Japanese music instrument which is played like a guitar. The strings are made out of feline guts. Hence, the cat is named "shamisen." It's kinda sad, really www

Anyone seen What the *bleep* is going on? They have a funny short on quantum physics dealing with preceived reality. How an observer is able to alter the outcome of a number of possibilities just by looking at it and wishing it so.

That was probably the best ending animation that I've ever seen.
Kinda reminded me 4th opening from FMA, where animation was also pretty impressive.

I'm gleefully jumping on the bandwagon. In fact, I'm kind of gleeful that there is such a big bandwagon to jump on. It was an incredibly bold move to start a series off like this, and a lot of people find bold moves off-putting. The opening made me laugh out loud twice -- which is unusual. I chuckle a lot, but I don't laugh out loud very often. Between the "camera work," the color saturation, and the narrator's running commentary, I suspected a film within a film. I didn't expect them to keep it up for almost the entire first episode. That took guts.

I haven't laughed that hard at uh, ... anything since the School Festival episode of Azumanga Daioh.
And they managed to do it WITHOUT Chiyo in a Penguin suit!
VERY impressive!

I heard about the aniimation being top class, which it is but as well as that the voice acting is Fantastic! Sugita Tomokazu always does a great job easily one of my favorite VA, plus there are a few other familiar voices there as well. I was watched it knowning it was some film put together within the anime, so I'm not sure what my reaction would of been without knowing that. Still it would of been easy to tell it wasn't normal... I definitely! will be watching all of the show though.... I do wonder what its going to be like next time... oh! and I just loved the battle sequences

From what I can gather, the President of the SOS is omnipotent and capable of changing reality to her very whim, only she doesn't realize it. The rest of the SOS club has to keep her from willing the Universe out of existence due to depression or something like that.
Hrm... if I weren't dead tired and had shirked ALL of my work for the past two days, I'd be tempted to make a "Chuck Norris' Beard APPROVES" image macro right now.

Well, I will join praising this series. Funniest episode I have seen in ages.
I didn't know anything about this when I started watching so it took a while to figure out what was going on. Intentionally crappy singing, acting and camera work was just hilarious.

"I am not interested in mere human beings. If any one of you in here is an alien, from the future, or has superpowers, come see me. That's all." Right from the beginning at the new school, Suzumiya Haruhi tossed out an outrageous greeting. It's not as if this is a sci-fi novel or anything......that's probably what everyone thought. That's what I thought too. But Haruhi was serious from the bottom of her heart. By the time I realized that, my normal daily life has already become the abnormal--------.

Foremost is a person's "worldview", their basic beliefs in how society should be structured and operate. Recent research has shown time and time again that people who endorse extreme free-market economics are prone to reject science with regulatory implications – such as the link between tobacco and lung cancer, or greenhouse gasses and climate change.
On the flip-side are speculations that the anti-GM and anti-vaccination movement are the domain of the political left. Some commentators have even referred to a "liberal war on science", and have claimed that both ends of spectrum have their own selective blindness to evidence.
So, is the rejection of science politically symmetrical? If people on the right reject climate science, do people on the left reject evidence inconvenient to their worldview?

An elderly woman peers into the hallway of Parker's Candies Factory Outlet in Fall River, Mass., which has just closed for the day. Six other women, with packages strewn on the ground next to them, crane to see over her shoulder.
''There are seven grown women out here crying,'' calls the first. ''Won't you open up for us?''
No, they won't. Unlike many retail stores these days, Parker's isn't worried about sales. On a busy Saturday like this one in late October, about 4,000 people pass through the store, estimates store manager David Sinclair.
Parker's isn't in the middle of a shopping mall. It sits at the end of a small road, along with some other outlets. Its location would seem to indicate that a factory outlet doesn't have to seek out shoppers; with these prices, shoppers will come to it.
And the shoppers are coming - by the busload, in fact. According to Anna Duphiney at the Bristol County Development Council, as many as 60 bus tours come to the Fall River-New Bedford area on a Saturday during the peak season between October and Christmas.
In Reading, Pa., where over 100 factory outlets and ''off-price'' retailers have set up shop next to each other, busloads come by the hundreds. ''It's getting too commercial in Reading,'' notes Jean Bird, author of seven factory outlet guides covering Maine to South Carolina. ''People line up to get into stores, and then line up to get out of them.''
It's normal to find apparel and soft goods (towels, sheets, etc.) in a factory outlet or off-price store at 30 percent to 70 percent off the usual retail price. This reporter nearly bought a $140 coat at Lord & Taylor department store which sold for $69 at Milltowne Factory Outlet in Fall River. Fieldcrest blankets, about $50 retail, were $24.99. Men's Van Heusen dress shirts were being snapped up for $16.99, about a 33 percent savings. And hard leather Renwick briefcases, retailing at $210, could be had for $139.
On the other side of town, at Marvel Factory Outlet, racks of Villager wool skirts normally $66 enticed bargain-hunters with a $29 price tag. Jean Phillippe blouses, which were polyester but looked like silk, flaunted a $12 tag. In a typical city department store they retail at $50. But let the buyer beware: there are no exchanges or returns.
And next door to Marvel, at Kidswear Factory Outlet, mothers rummaged one-handed (with a child in the other) through the 79-cent Carter's undershirts ($2 retail) and $3.49 thermal underwear ($7 retail). One woman, asked why she shopped at Kidswear, replied ''Are you kidding? Kids grow like weeds. Buy them a pair of pants, and they're popping the seams a month later.''
Many stores claim to sell off-price or discount merchandise, but there are subtle distinctions that could make a difference in quality and price of the merchandise.
At a bona fide factory outlet, the customer buys directly from the manufacturer, which wants to unload its overruns or irregular goods. Often located at or near the factory, such stores don't pay high shopping-mall rents, nor the interior-decorating fees. ''We're not paying for the curtains and the wall-to-wall carpeting, or for the store planners and advertising executives . . . ,'' says one outlet manager.
In addition, the range of products is usually limited - about all you can get at a Bass shoe outlet store in Brunswick, Maine, is shoes; or underwear at Carter's Underwear outlet in Needham, Mass. It's generally not a one-stop affair , with designer jeans next to Hartman luggage next to microwave ovens.
But the discount often ranges from 40-70 percent because there is no middleman. And you are likely to get current styles, or even next season's styles, at half the retail price.
The half-brother to factory outlets are ''outlet concept stores,'' which buy from many manufacturers. These stores buy samples, overruns, end-of-season goods , and irregulars from manufacturers at below wholesale prices, so they can sell at a 25-60 percent discount. While a shopper may not, on average, find as large a discount at these stores as at factory outlets, she or he will have a wider selection. Some of the larger outlet concept stores include T.H. Mandy (owned by US Shoe), J. Brannam (F.W. Woolworth Company), Marshall's (Melville), Loehmans, and T. J. Maxx (Zayre Corporation).
The third type of off-price store is the ''discounter.'' Like Mandy's and Marshall's, they buy from several types of manufacturers. But discounters, such as Cohoes Manufacturing, usually pay regular wholesale price, and take a low markup, undercutting department stores by about 20 percent. The two advantages over outlet concept stores are, first, a more complete selection in sizes, colors, etc.; and second, location - they are often closer to urban areas.
Discount stores such as K-Mart and Caldor fall into a different category. ''Fashion-conscious shoppers won't go to K-Mart for their wardrobes,'' observes Iris Ellis, publisher of ''Save on Shopping,'' a national directory of off-price stores. ''Toasters and health and beauty aids, maybe, but not clothes.''
Recognizing that people might not be willing to travel to a remote location for limited types of merchandise, many factory outlets band together in ''cluster outlets.'' In Fall River, Mass., for example, one big warehouse holds an Adidas running equipment store, a men's and boy's apparel store, a shoe store , and a children's clothing store (mainly from Carters). Across the street is another children's apparel store and a women's apparel store. And next door sits Parker's Candies.
Factory outlets are big business for out-of-the-way manufacturing towns, and city governments are capitalizing on them. In Fall River, for example, the Bristol County Development Council tailors tours to a group's specific product interests and price range. It sets up an itinerary of off-price stores to visit, arranges low-cost lunches, and forewarns the stores about how many people to expect. Even after the buses pull away for the day, the council keeps the groups informed of sales coming throughout the year with free newsletters.
Even getting to outlet centers can be inexpensive and easy. Ms. Ellis, who schedules tours for her seminars on factory-outlet shopping, says the trip should not cost over $25 per person. ''And if a person can't save $25 during the day,'' she says, ''she doesn't know what she's doing.''
Bargain hunting, say off-price retailers, is the wave of the future. It has gained acceptance among the fashion-conscious, says Ms. Ellis. ''It's a matter of being proud of those [shopping] skills - and it's a way for them to win, to beat the system. Buying brand names at half price give them a victory.''
A survey taken by Ms. Bird of those who bought her local factory outlet guides confirms that fact. Even four years ago, when the survey was taken, the average customer's salary level was about $30,000 a year. ''Actually, I was disappointed that the more highly-educated and wealthier people were the ones buying the directories,'' she says. ''I was hoping they would reach those at lower incomes, who probably need them more.''
Sales volume in off-price stores is about 15 percent a year, double that of full-price retail stores, according to Jerome H. Buff, first vice-president at Smith Barney, Harris Upham & Company, a brokerage firm. But established, upscale department stores don't seem worried.
''The customer is becoming educated, and knows that she's looking for one thing - quality and service - at Saks, and another - price - at the factory outlet,'' says a spokeswoman at Saks Fifth Avenue. Advice from pro shopper
The quintessential shopper, Jean Bird, author of seven ''Factory Outlet Shopping Guides,'' claims factory outlets and off-price stores are the only places to shop. Already finished with most of her Christmas shopping, she has spent $400 - about half of what she would have spent in department stores, she says. But ''you have to go into outlets with your eyes wide open,'' advises Ms. Bird. ''If the merchandise doesn't fit or falls apart when you get it home, it's not a bargain, no matter what you paid for it.''
Here are some tips for getting good buys without making mistakes.
* Buy at the end of the season.
* If you are buying for someone else, take a tape measure to get the exact sizes and seam lengths you need. Sizes vary between manufacturers. Much of the time you can't take merchandise back if it doesn't fit.
* Be open minded. Don't go to an outlet looking for a particular dress or shirt.
* Don't sell full-price stores short. Their sale prices often are competitive with the discounts at off-price stores.
* If you see something you like, buy it. It may be gone tomorrow.
* Look for flaws. While most off-price stores mark the tag or pull off the label if the item is irregular, you cannot depend on that.
* Bring cash. Many off-price stores do not accept credit cards.
* Avoid shopping at popular outlet centers, such as Reading, Pa., on Saturdays. If you must go on Saturday, go early in the morning.
* If you are a woman who is modest, wear a leotard. Many outlets have one large community dressing room, or worse - as in Filene's Basement Store- no dressing rooms at all.

Fido and Me – Deep breathing
Fido is teaching me deep breathing.
"Hey, hey, hey hey!"
He lay on his side and invited me over.
"I have noticed that lots of humans don't quite get this," he said, "but once you get the hangdog of it, it's easy and it will make you feel better."
I had just passed through a weekend of football — college and pro. During the Iowa-Nebraska game a week ago, I was a total wreck. I can handle a boring game if my guys come out on top, but alas, it was that kind of game and that kind of season.
Lying next to Fido is a little bit like lying alongside an orange-and-black, rolled-up shag rug.
"Okay," he said, "here's the deal. Breathe with your stomach instead of your chest."
He demonstrated what I had observed a million times. Anyone who lives with a dog has seen it, too.
"It is considered by some to be a healthier and fuller way to ingest air," Fido explained, "and is sometimes used as a therapy for hyperventilation, anxiety disorders and stuttering."
"I don't stutter, Fido."
"This I know. But your anxiety level is off the charts right now."
"It's about the Hawkeyes," I said, but Fido wouldn't let me up, neither literally nor figuratively.
"You're a newspaperman," he said. "High anxiety is part of the job description."
"I suppose that's true."
"OK, here we go," Fido said. "You have to draw air into the lungs in a way which will expand the stomach and not the chest."
"This is what you do at night," I said. "I can actually hear you do this when you're sleeping."
"Okay then. Pull the air in with your nose and hold there for about 10 seconds. Then exhale through your mouth. It's easy!"
I tried it.
"Deep breathing actually fills up the majority of the lungs with oxygen — much more than chest-breathing," he said. "Dogs know how to do this naturally. I have no idea how humans got so sidetracked."
I tried it again, but didn't feel much different, even after four or five times.
"You're belly breathing, and that's not it," Fido said. "It's hard to explain the difference. But I'm a dog. It's hard to explain just about everything.
"Andrew Weil says this exercise is subtle when you first try it but gains in power with repetition and practice," Fido said. "Do it at least twice a day. You cannot do it too frequently."
"How do you know about Andrew Weil?"
"TV," he said.
I tried it again, this time the next day during Ohio State at Michigan. My head told me that I was indifferent toward this game, but I could feel my heart racing when the Buckeyes drove late and had a chance at a come-from-behind victory at the Big House.
"Breathe!" Fido commanded.
It helped.
Later in the day, toward dusk, he asked if I was going to MBE to pick up the mail. I said I hadn't planned on it.
"Are you expecting something?" I said.
Fido closed his eyes and breathed deeply.
"It'll wait," he said, and drifted off to sleep.

MACON, Ga. - The NCAA Women's Basketball "Pack the House" initiative is underway, and once again Lipscomb and the other nine Atlantic Sun Conference teams are participating to promote their programs with a chance of becoming the 2012 champion.
Lipscomb is set to host the annual promotion on Feb. 16 as ETSU comes to Allen Arena for a 6:30 p.m. contest against the Bucs.
"We are very proud of all of the institutions in the Atlantic Sun Conference for their hard work in promoting our women's basketball programs," said Sherri Booker, A-Sun Senior Associate Commissioner. "Through their efforts, the A-Sun is the only NCAA Division I conference in the country to have 100% participation in the NCAA Pack the House Challenge the past two years. Last year those marketing efforts resulted in an overall attendance increase of more than 15 percent at our women's basketball contests. We will continue to increase our marketing efforts and our fan bases as we work to grow the sport of women's basketball in the A-Sun."
A-Sun "Pack the House" matchups in 2011-12 include three non-conference and seven league contests.
"Pack the House" is national effort in which conferences and institutions compete to build attendance. NCAA Division I women's basketball marketing staffs select a home game and designate that date as a "Pack the House" game with the goal of setting an attendance record. One winner from each of the 32 conferences and one from a group of independent institutions is selected at the conclusion of the challenge. Selections are based on marketing plan creativity and attendance criteria. Last season more than half of the Division I membership - 178 institutions - participated in the effort that attracted more than 554,000 fans.
The NCAA will make a $500 donation to a non-profit organization on behalf of the A-Sun winner of the "Pack the House" challenge.

In his "Letter to the Elderly" in 1999, Pope Blessed John Paul II wrote, "It is natural that, as the years pass, we should increasingly consider our 'twilight.' If nothing else, we are reminded of it by the very fact that the ranks of our family members, friends and acquaintances grow ever thinner."
The letter from the late pontiff was intended for those who are in the "autumn" of their lives, and the pope noted that the challenges of old age are considerable. They are both physical as well as spiritual, and those of the spirit can be even greater than the ailments and conditions that plague an aging body.
One of the ways that the Church can offer spiritual support for the elderly is through the saints. Catholic tradition honors one saint in particular as the patron of the elderly: the beloved St. Anthony of Padua (d. 1226).
There are, however, other saints and blessed who can serve as ideal patrons and models for seniors, including Sts. Jeanne Jugan and Teresa of Jesus Jornet e Ibars, St. Monica and Pope Blessed John Paul II, and even St. Peter.
Saints for the aged
St. Anthony of Padua (1195-1231), one of the great Franciscan saints, seems at first look an unlikely candidate to be patron of the elderly. He died at the age of 36, was a brilliant preacher and doctor of the Church and a defender of the faith against heresy.
He is also a famous patron for helping people to find lost objects. His status as a patron of the elderly stems from his abiding compassion for the suffering and the aged, especially in Padua, as well as his own many physical afflictions, enough to last many lifetimes. His feast day is June 30.
Sts. Jeanne Jugan (1792-1879) and Teresa Jesus Jornet e Ibars (1843-1897) were both founders of religious congregations called the Little Sisters of the Poor, and both took as their special concern the care of the elderly, especially the forgotten and the abandoned. They are thus the special friends of the elderly, in particular those suffering from abandonment or loneliness.
St. Jeanne was born in France and started what became the Little Sisters of the Poor in 1837 when she called together a small community of friends to care for abandoned elderly women. It was said that she gave up her own bed for the first of the elderly women who came under her charge.
The members initially went door-to-door asking for food and funds to support the women whom they aided, but by the time of St. Jeanne's death, there were several thousand Little Sisters and houses all over Europe and North and South America.
She was beatified in Rome by Pope John Paul II on Oct. 3, 1982, and canonized on Oct. 11, 2009, by Pope Benedict XVI. Her famous motto was a simple one: "Making the elderly happy, that's what counts." Her feast day is Aug. 30.
St. Teresa Jesus was born in Spain and founded the Little Sisters of the Abandoned Aged (also commonly called the Little Sisters of the Poor) in 1873 with the specific charge of caring for the many isolated and forgotten elderly in the region around Barbastro, in northeastern Spain. By the time of her death from exhaustion, there were 50 houses for the elderly. Pope Pius XII beatified her in 1958, and she was canonized by Pope Paul VI in 1974. Her feast day is Aug. 26.
Saints for the brokenhearted
Where St. Anthony and Sts. Jeanne and Teresa are honored as patrons of the elderly, St. Monica (d. 387) is a great model for seniors who struggle in their relationships with their children. The mother of St. Augustine, St. Monica was a widow who spent many tear-filled years praying that her tortured relationship with her son might end with the reform of his dissolute life and their attaining some happiness together.
A bishop consoled her, "It is not possible that the son of so many tears should perish."
Her fortitude and ceaseless prayers ended after 17 years with St. Augustine's baptism by St. Ambrose of Milan only months before her death. St. Monica is the saint to ask for help if you are hoping for reconciliation with your grown children. Her feast day is Aug. 27.
St. Monica is also a patron for widows and widowers. She is joined by Sts. Paula (347-404) and Frances of Rome (1384-1440).
A Roman noblewoman, St. Paula was widowed at the age of 36 and devoted most of her remaining years to assisting St. Jerome in his work and building up the Church in the Holy Land. St. Frances was a Roman noblewoman, mother, mystic and source of many charitable initiatives in Rome. She had always wanted to enter the religious life, but she was wed at the age of 13 to a noble and was widowed at the age of 52.
Both Paula and Frances spent their times as widows dedicating their lives to God, and they are beautiful examples for those who have lost spouses and face loneliness or need direction for their later years. St. Paula's feast day is Jan. 26, and St. Frances' is March 9.
Saints for the suffering
The 25-year pontificate of Blessed John Paul II provided a vivid example of how to grow old with dignity and conform our sufferings to Christ's cross. The entire world watched him age, deal with his many infirmities and finally go to the Lord's house. His "Letter to the Elderly" was written from the deep personal experience of aging, and with his beatification in 2011 by Pope Benedict XVI, the late pontiff is now a great role model for seniors.
As the pope wrote, "Sadly, struggles and tribulations are very much a part of everyone's life. Sometimes it is a matter of problems and sufferings which can sorely test our mental and physical resistance, and perhaps even shake our faith. But experience teaches that daily difficulties, by God's grace, often contribute to people's growth and to the forging of their character." His feast day is Oct. 22.
Finally, for those seeking the blessings of a long life, the traditional patron is St. Peter, who gave his last years to proclaiming the Gospel and leading the Christian community, especially in Rome where he was bishop. It is worth remembering that he suffered persecution and ultimately martyrdom.
A long life will thus bring its share of loss, but faith and hope will always prepare us for the final time of our lives.
As the psalms teach us: "God, you have taught me from my youth; to this day I proclaim your wondrous deeds. Now that I am old and gray, do not forsake me, God, that I may proclaim your might to all generations to come" (Ps 71:17-18).
Matthew Bunson is the editor of The Catholic Answer and the 2012 Catholic Almanac.

May 10, 2010
Alexandria, VA – June 5, 2008 – A turfgrass study conducted by Dr. Ranajit Sahu, an independent environmental and energy expert and University instructor, on behalf of the Outdoor Power Equipment Institute (OPEI), shows that responsibly managed lawns sequester, or store, significant amounts of carbon. In fact, healthy turfgrass can capture up to four times more carbon from the air than is produced by the engine of today's lawnmowers. The findings are based on several peer-reviewed, scientific studies and models where carbon sequestration had been measured in managed and unmanaged turfgrass.

Posted on December 1, 2010
One of the difficulties in dealing primarily with secondhand material is, well, that you deal primarily with secondhand material. A donation came in two weeks ago which included something that I have never, NEVER, seen in brand new condition. I clutched them to me with the fervor of a child who has opened a present and found something even he wasn't greedy enough to write on the list. I was not just thrilled, fried prunebread: I was overcome. There were tears in my eyes at the sight of not one, not ten, but ONE HUNDRED of these things.
I do hate them that desperately.
They come in ten sizes, and are really quite a clever device. I want to make it clear that they perform exactly as advertised, and do what they are supposed to do. I want to make this clear because a) it is the truth and b) I don't sell enough books to pay for a lawsuit.
What they are, currant cupcake, are adjustable vinyl book protectors. They honestly do fit any thickness of books, as advertised. You slide the pocket on the front over the front cover of the book, but instead of a pocket on the back for the back cover, there is a strap which slides into position wherever you happen to need it. This cover is see-through, so you know which book you're reading, but it protects the book from spills, greasy thumbprints, and other ills that the book is heir to.
It's the cover of the cover that gets me. I have had books come in with these covers on, and they are all unpleasant to the touch. Now that I have touched brand new ones, I can report that they are not like that, so it must be something that happens to the vinyl over time. The outside gets sticky, or perhaps the word I want is gummy. Dust adheres to them. Sometimes the covers of other books, which have not been protected with a vinyl protector, stick to them. It has gotten so that when I pick up a book and say "Eeyew", it is, nine times out of ten, because the book has been protected with one of these covers. (Yes, plum gravy, the tenth time is more interesting reading, but that's for another day.)
What is amazing is that the inside of the cover, presumably made of the same plastic that is millimeters away on the outside, does not go through this reaction. This is as dry and as clean as the day it was put on the book, and it is really wonderful how nice and bright the book inside is. It is also really wonderful how fast I rip these covers off the books as they come in, because no matter how well-protected it is, the book inside a) looks dingy because of the dust stuck to the outside of the cover, and b) is awfully hard to sell if the first thing customers think of when they pick it up is "Eeyew!"
Yes, I will probably sell these covers a) because I have seen how nicely they keep the books inside them, and b) because I want them out of my sight as soon as possible.

Kerri Richardson and Shelley Catharine Johnson have a lot in common.
Both are media spokespersons for high profile government offices, the governor and the attorney general, respectively.
Both are dedicated, driven professionals in their fields.
Both are also Shelby County residents.
Richardson, communications director for Gov. Steve Beshear, and Johnson, deputy communications director for Attorney General Jack Conway, say they have always gotten along well when their paths have crossed professionally from time to time.
"I knew her [Richardson] when she was a reporter for WHAS-11 TV, and I know her from her work with the governor's office," said Johnson, who lives near Simpsonville. "She is incredibly good at what she does, and is a terrific person!"
Said Richardson, who lives in Shelbyville:
"We have never worked in same office, but we sometimes collaborate on issues that affect the governor and attorney general. She [Johnson] is a delight!"
Maybe they get along so well because their lineage is so parallel.
Both graduated from high school in 1996, Johnson from the Sacred Heart Academy in Louisville and Richardson from Shelby County High School.
They were communications majors in college – Johnson at DePauw University and Richardson at Western Kentucky – and worked for several years as radio and television journalists – even both at WHAS – before moving on to public relations.
Johnson: It's rewarding
Johnson describes her early days as a reporter at WHAS in Louisville as a very exciting time in her life.
"I really loved being a journalist, even the long days and crazy hours," she said. "I loved the people I worked with, the stories I worked on, the documentaries. It was something I wouldn't trade for anything."
But then she started to realize that exciting career would interfere with something else she really wanted – a family.
"Knowing I wanted a family, I wanted a little bit more stability in my work hours and wanted to be home more with my family," she said.
So Johnson and her husband, Nathan P. Johnson, an associate dean at the University of Louisville who is a former newspaper reporter and editor, moved to Shelby County in 1999.
"We wanted some acreage, and we just loved the Shelby countryside," she said.
Their son, Patrick, came along in 2003, shortly after Johnson had begun working for the Independent Pilots Association.
But she soon discovered that her love affair with the media was far from over.
"I started working for Jack [Conway] in 2008, and every day at work is crazy, busy and wonderful," she said.
She spends her time working on media inquiries, sending out press releases and assisting Conway.
"I just love it here; it's a tremendous challenge and very rewarding," she said. "I love what I do."
It's always a joy to write a press release announcing the arrest of someone arrested for child pornography, she said.
"I always say to myself, 'Well, there's another one off the Internet!'"
But Johnson said Conway's campaign to stamp out prescription drug abuse is the most rewarding project she has yet encountered.
"That's been a priority issue for Attorney General Conway, and I've had the opportunity to help plan prescription drug abuse prevention programs for middle and high schools across the state and we hope to start one right here in Shelby County soon," she said. "This is the most rewarding thing I've had the opportunity to be involved in.
"Just to know that we are making a dent in what is probably one of the biggest problems facing our kids today, well, It's just incredibly rewarding to me."
Richardson: 'Drinking from a fire hose'
Richardson spent nine years working in television news after graduating from WKU in 2000, five of those years at WHAS-Channel 11.
Her career took a different twist when she started working for Louisville Mayor Jerry Abramson in 2007.
"I got a call asking if I was interested, and I said, 'Hmmm, better hours, better pay – OK!,'" she said.
She spent two and a half years as Abramson's communications coordinator; a position that she was said was immensely valuable to her.
"It was a great place to sort of get my legs under me to learn about government work and how to best communicate with the public," she said.
Richardson chuckled as she recalled her duties there.
"I worked a lot in public safety with police and fire and public works; people there remember me as the snow lady," she said. "I was the one who was always on TV saying, 'Don't panic, all the salt trucks are out.'"
Then she went to work for Beshear in 2009 and was on the other end of the spectrum from where she had first begun her career.
"For the first year and a half that I was in Frankfort, I dealt strictly with the media," she said.
Then, six months ago, she took a big jump to communications director for Beshear.
"Now I'm dealing with reporters, working with our cabinet, helping to maintain government relations with folks throughout the state. It's like drinking from a fire hose," she said with a laugh.
What's a typical day like for Richardson these days?
"My morning begins with the drive into Frankfort; I listen to the radio on the way in, to be sure I know what's happening," she said. "Then, at my office, I look at all the major newspaper stories, and I get a list of all the mentions of Governor Beshear's name in newsprint, radio and television.
"I take a look at those and let our staff know what the hot topics are for the day and what kinds of questions I expect to get from reporters. The day can go in any direction from there."
Richardson said she doesn't travel much with Beshear, but when she does, it's usually to the scene of a natural disaster, and that reminds her of the days in Abramson's office, when she was nicknamed "the master of disaster."
"We had the ice storm, windstorms, Hurricane Ike, flooding; I used to joke that the only thing we had had not was an earthquake, but then we had one in western Kentucky in the spring," she said.
When asked what she thought was the key to her success, Richardson reflected that simply having grown up in Shelby County gave her a big advantage.
"I really have to say that I had the most awesome teachers, all the way through school," she said. "They gave me a love for books, of reading, and so much more.
"I recently saw my fifth-grade teacher, Cricket McClure, at Kroger, and we had a great talk. I told her I have always carried with me the love of reading that she gave me."
Family ties
Both women say they cherish their families and the support they provide to them in their hectic careers and busy lives.
Johnson's mother, Nancy Bush, who lives in Oldham County, has always been her hero and inspiration, she said.
"She has overcome so many obstacles in her life and is great role model," she said.
Bush is an avid runner, cyclist, a black belt in Karate and holds down a full-time job.
"She has taught me the value of hard work and the importance of believing in yourself," Johnson said.
Richardson said her parents, Donald and Glenda Richardson of Peytona, have been a "wonderful inspiration," to her, and she enjoys spending time with them.
"Sometimes I drop in and have supper with them, and my sister, Courtney just moved back in with them, so I can see all of them, except for my younger brother, who doesn't live here," she said.
Richardson said one thing her parents always stressed has really helped her in her career.
"I am convinced that every job I ever received was due in part to the fact that I wrote thank-you notes," she said. "I would always write a note, thanking them for the interview. People remember that."

Partner said I could interview for SA gig as 2L w/out going through OCI. I am assuming they told the other six people they rejected the same thing. Does this mean anything?
