Things to think on
August 3, 2012 by Judy Trull
I haven't blogged in awhile as have been busy with work, life and the Inn, not necessarily in that order. That got me to thinking about our guests and friends and family and how crazy busy their lives get as well. What a unique situation we find ourselves in as Innkeepers, in that we are able to help people to reconnect and unplug….we can only help them if they will let us. I have often said that reconnecting and relaxing are becoming harder and harder to come by these days. Oh sure, we have the internet, Facebook, Twitter, Flickr and all manner of ways to keep in touch with those we care about. That one on one, face to face time is what is seemingly lost through our life. I believe that people are looking for that way to reconnect, even if they don't think that is what is missing. That time to unwind with those we love and care about, and just chat about the things that are happening within our world and our lives. A Bed and Breakfast is a perfect place for just such reconnecting, we offer a calm, quiet place to do just that. Whether it's sitting on the front porch, laughing and enjoying the evening, or it's having a friendly game night in the parlor or watching a movie together, it is all time well spent. You also have space to get away by yourself and hang out and rest. All of that, plus snacks and a full gourmet breakfast and what a wonderful time can be had. I also wanted to share with you some musings from an email that I received from a very dear friend. These thoughts are those of 90 year old Regina Brett, these are just some of the 45 lessons that life has taught her, something to learn from those around us for sure.
1. Life is too short, enjoy it!
2. When it comes to chocolate, resistance is futile.
3. Don't compare your life to others, you have no idea what their journey is all about.
4. Take a deep breath, it calms the mind.
5. Whatever doesn't kill you, really does make you stronger.
6. It's never too late to be happy, but it's all up to you and no one else.
7. When it comes to going after what you love in life, never take no for an answer.
8. Burn the candles, use the nice sheets, wear the fancy lingerie, don't save it for a special occassion, today is special!
9. The best is yet to come.
and finally…..
Believe in Miracles!
I hope you make it a great day!

Mayor Don Wesely said today that later this week he will propose to the City Council adding 12 police officers in the 2003-2004 fiscal year using the COPS grants while they are still available from the federal government. The Mayor will discuss the idea with the City Council at a budget retreat on Thursday.
"Public safety is one of the primary responsibilities of the City government," Wesely said. "Adding police officers has always been a priority for me. With the federal money already authorized for the City to add 12 officers, we can do so without raising property taxes next year. We don't know how much longer the federal grants will be available." The COPS grants provide $25,000 for each new officer for three years.
The Mayor said he is optimistic that if sales tax revenues continue to be ahead of projections, the new officers could be added without a property tax increase. The City property tax rate has gone down under Mayor Wesely's four budgets.
Mayor Wesely has added 13 police officers since 1999. The previous budgets have also included three additional civilian Police Department support staff, vehicles and equipment.
Mayor Wesely said the additional officers will complement the Hometown Security Study he and the City Council have agreed to conduct of the City's public safety gap in police, fire and the 911 Center. The study will help identify priorities and options to fund additional officers.

Mayor Don Wesely, with the support of the Lancaster County Medical Society, today detailed a plan for the improvement of independent medical oversight related to emergency medical services. The proposal would retain EMS, Inc. as the provider of oversight for the EMS system with some changes to the board make-up. It would also clarify the disciplinary role of the Medical Director and solidify the role of the Medical Direction Board of the Lancaster County Medical Society in developing medical and dispatch protocols.
"Emergency medical service is the practice of medicine on the streets of Lincoln and roads of Lancaster County," Wesely said. "When a citizen calls 911 for an ambulance, he or she is seeking fast, well-trained medical help. We must have independent medical oversight to ensure high quality services. Independent medical oversight is extremely important to the medical community and to me."
"The physicians of the Lancaster County Medical Society have held firm in their belief that independent medical oversight is critical for a well-functioning emergency medical system," said Dr. Daniel P. Noble, President of the Lancaster County Medical Society. "We are encouraged that independent medical oversight will be preserved for the benefit of our patients in Lincoln and the surrounding area,"
The Mayor commended City Council member Coleen Seng, who facilitated the development of the plan. "Coleen has years of experience in negotiating tough issues that are critical to the citizens of Lincoln," Wesely said. "Her assistance in bringing the interested parties together to come up with this proposal was invaluable. Once again, her leadership is of great benefit to the City of Lincoln."
City Council member Jonathan Cook said he was pleased that discussions with the medical community have resulted in a plan with which all parties can be comfortable. "Independent medical oversight has always been the most important issue in this process," he said. "This plan will ensure that patient care always comes first."
The President of the EMS, Inc. Board, Darrell Stock, said the plan has the support of the current board. "The EMS, Inc. Board is obviously very pleased with the decision to preserve truly independent medical oversight," he said. "We believe the announcement today presents an opportunity to strengthen medical oversight and the independence of the medical oversight agency. The Board is committed to making the transition as smooth as possible for all concerned."
The plan includes the following provisions:
The proposed changes would be implemented by an amendment to the current contract and the development of a transition document. Both would need the approval of the Lincoln City Council. The changes would become effective on January 1, 2001.
"It is in the best interests of all of us that the quality of care from the emergency scene to the emergency room be as seamless and as high quality as possible," Wesely said. "I am pleased the city, the county and the medical community are working cooperatively to provide for truly independent medical oversight of our paramedics."

Burning Hell
Burning Hell (manga): Action, Adventure, Drama, Historical, Mature, Seinen
"Set in Japan and Korea during the Edo period, a time of great upheaval between the two cultural groups." Author: Yang Kyung-Il
A new seinen that cough my attention. This seinen is not for the weak hearted as it contains loads of blood, violence and just simply a lot of disturbing scenes. Everything that a gore thirsting seinen fan wants .
Currently we are at chapter 4. But already this looks very promising. Well let just say the story surrounds itself around 2 prisoners on an island between Korea and Japan. Both are sick and twisted human beings. If you want to know more just read 4 chapters. That should not take to long

haha first 4 chapters are just the beginning I think. It' still on going. Where did you get that info from anyways?
Lol no manga is that short. It should be at least 12 chapters and quite honestly I think it will be more than that.

I think when it was being scanlated, (around chapter 2), there was some info saying that the writer + artist meant it to be a one shot, except 4 chapters instead of 1. They've done a 2 chapter one shot before.
Anyways, although it does seem like there's going to be a phase 2, probably due to the reception?

Well considering the way it openly ended and the way author told there will be others it kinda hinted that it will continue.
Otherwise it is just stupid writing. But you seem to be serious so I will re-read it and see for some hints.
And why the heck do 4 chapter deal when this looks so promising? That just does not make sense.

Well you two guys inspired me to read the chapters that are available, and let me tell you, I liked it. The art is the style I like and I love that the mangaka made the relationship of the characters as real as possible. The language barriers are great for the backround comedy and I like the way he draws

^Be sure to also check out Shin Angyo Onshi while you're at it. It's by far their best work IMO.
About Burning Hell, I'm not sure if it was dropped or not, but if it was, I wouldn 't count on it coming back. I'm still waiting for the continuation of Island they promised so many years ago... so far nothing. It stopped just when it was getting REALLY good too.

Excuse me for posting in such an old thread.
I just picked this up after finishing the author's Shin Angyo Onshi. The 4 chapters were great, and I hope there will be more.
I'm not really into Defense Devil as I prefer their seinen works more. But does anyone have any info or news about this series? It's not done or canceled is it?

Robert Kanter needed a new web page design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 32 designs submitted by 8 freelance designers.
PCR - Professional Computer Repair powered by Innovative Technologies
We specialize in business and consumer computer repairs. We have gotten all of our consumer business through our sign out in front of our building. It currently has the parent company name (Innovative Technologies) on there so it doesn't immediately draw them in on what we do. We are moving to a location that would have a lot more traffic passing by and our idea is to create a brand for consumer repairs that would state simply what we do. Professional Computer Repair was our idea – simple and direct to the point of what we do for consumers. We wanted a professionally designed logo for this brand that would attract immediate attention but we wanted to to keep the Innovative Technologies as it is well recognized in the area. We have the logo (attached) and stationary design. now we want a website to reflect this new approach
Consumers - we want to let them know what we do quickly and what services we offer and what makes us different - namely, a professional approach to computer repair.
Businesses - while the PCR brand name is directed to consumers, we still need businesses to feel comfortable with us, and the level of service they can receive from our company
We are pretty open to designs, but one thing (you probably figured out from what you've read so far) we want to immediatelyknow that it is a computer repair shop.
We try to separate ourselves from the standard 'Geek shops' around and pride ourselves in professional computer repair, so We are looking for a sleek, professional look, but not a 'techie' or 'geeky' look (think of web sites for financial planning, attorney, medical services companies)
We would like it to match the stationary we have had designed. I will upload a PDF of those designs. It is important that the Innovative Technologies logo be displayed so that it can be quickly identified, without overwhelming the design.

Beshear: Let's address law
enforcement issues on hemp
Speaking with reporters in Frankfort Tuesday, Gov. Steve Beshear said he's pushing to put the hemp legalization issue on hold until law enforcement's concerns can be addressed.
According to WTVQ-TV, Beshear has concerns similar to those of Speaker of the House Greg Stumbo (R-Prestonsburg), who's said the state should listen to the concerns of police officers since hemp leaves look like marijuana leaves.

Lots of debate going on here in Kentucky. After 7 years of waiting the Corps of Engineers will probably be forced to delay raising the lake back to its normal summer pool due to the discovery of an endangered fish in the headwaters. Water was lowered in 2007 due to emergency repairs on the dam and took a heavy toll on lake related businesses in the area. That and the recession took several businesses under. One long time marina was completely out of the water and had to be moved. The owner eventually went bankrupt.
The $600M project is complete now (2 years late) and 2014 was supposed to be the comeback year. Now this fish issue puts everything on hold.

The UCI, the governing body for competitive cycling, recently published a guide called "Technical Regulations for Bicycles: a Practical Guide to Implementation", hoping that it would offer a "definitive interpretation in order to facilitate understanding and application of the Regulations by international commissaires, teams and manufacturers."
However, trying to determine the meaning of the document is difficult.
Imagine you're a team director or sponsor with countless hours and heaps of money invested in wind tunnel time and rider set-up sessions over the previous off-season.
Imagine what your reaction might be heading into the biggest bicycle race of the season when you are presented with this document:
What's your course of action and what exactly is a two-level bar?
Taken literally, the "constructed on two levels" description and the accompanying diagram implies that riders and teams can no longer use any means to raise the extensions relative to the base bar.
Moreover, the description could also be interpreted to mean that base bars with drop are outlawed as well since either situation would put the outer grips and extensions at appreciably different heights.
As a result, many of the time trial bar setups we've seen at this year's Tour de France almost look as if they could have been hewn from a single flat plate of material – the extensions are dead-straight and the base bars have no drop whatsoever, in marked contrast to what we've commonly seen in the past.
However, other bar setups – say that of Saxo Bank rider Jens Voigt, who sadly had to retire after a gruesome crash in stage 16 – look to clearly violate the rule, yet the commissaries allowed them to start both the stage 1 individual time trial in Monaco and the team time trial three days later around Montpellier. So why the discrepancy?
Voigt's aerobar setup looks more like an aeroplane from this angle than a bicycle handlebar.
According to the UCI, the new guide "does not replace Articles 1.3.001 to 1.3.025 of the UCI Regulations [those describing allowable equipment], but instead complements them and illustrates the technical rules defined therein.
The objective of this document is to offer a definitive interpretation in order to facilitate understanding and application of the Regulations by international commissaires, teams and manufacturers."
In this particular case, the 'dual level' clause is meant to clarify rule 1.3.023, which states that handlebar extensions used in time trials must place the rider's forearms "in the horizontal plane" and that the angle between the upper arm and forearm not to exceed 120 degrees "when in the racing position".
So is this bar constructed on two levels or isn't it?
Regardless, what the UCI is trying to do here is further prevent riders from adopting the so-called 'praying mantis' position popularised by Levi Leipheimer (Astana) and Floyd Landis.
Even when forearm rests and aero extensions are oriented at the same height, the UCI fears that riders using 'two-level' bars will simply be able to move their elbows down to the base bar below, thus effectively angling their forearms upwards and shielding their torsos with their hands for a more aerodynamic position.
Teams such as Saxo Bank, High Road-HTC and Rabobank apparently have already communicated with the UCI in regard to the rule's intended meaning and gained prior approval for their seemingly illegal bar setups.
Columbia-High Road has made the switch from their previous 'TechDev' bikes to Scott's new Plasma 3.
Thus far we've noticed no riders exploiting a 'two-level' bar setup as the UCI had feared and we would guess other teams will eventually revert back to their preferred setups in the near future now that the precedent has been set.
However, whether or not we'll see any changes in time for the upcoming individual time trial around
On a more general note, however, this issue only further highlights the UCI's inability to convey its technical rulings in a concrete and unambiguous manner that engineers, mechanics and designers can understand.
Milram's time trial bike is designed by Andy Walser, who has long provided top pros with custom aero machines.
Much as the sport's governing body is maligned for its supposed evil quest against advancing technology in the sport, the underlying goal of leveling the playing field somewhat and ensuring rider safety is at least admirable in its intent, if not its execution.
However, as has become somewhat typical, what comes forth in the text is often disappointingly confusing.
Want even more confusion? Check out the UCI rules and guides for yourself:
- "General organization of cycling as a sport"
- "Technical regulations for bicycles, a practical guide to implementation"

Once associated only with banks, jewelry stores, or museums, access control systems are now playing a much greater role in the overall design of all types of commercial buildings. Increasingly seen as a necessary part of the comprehensive design package, access control has prompted the growth of security technology. What many people don't know is that even the simplest of current systems can perform in a manner previously associated with costly and complicated security management systems, often without the big price tag. This underlines the importance for specifiers, designers, and installers to keep pace with the continuing evolution and use of these systems.
In their simplest form, access control systems provide the type of features and functions normally associated with "burglar alarms" or intrusion detection systems; electromagnetic locks, door position switches, and motion detectors. Although many of these devices are still being used as part of an access control system's basic hardware package, it is actually the software and other PC-based features that provide the level of sophistication found in today's systems.
Nuts and bolts
Controlling the flow of traffic in and out of a building is still at the heart of every access control system. Entries are secured with electromagnetic locks or strikes, which can be overridden through the use of a keypad or card reader. Often, the inrush current associated with these locking devices mandates that each door be equipped with a dedicated power supply, usually located above the ceiling near the secured door. Additionally, secured doors are equipped with magnetic contacts that monitor door status after a valid entry or exit event, ensuring that a door cannot be propped open or left ajar for later use by individuals normally not permitted entrance to the facility.
Quite often, an additional security device is used to both monitor and permit exit through a controlled entry. Any one of several devices located near the interior side of a door can be used to exit, including a second keypad or card reader, request to exit pushbutton, crash bar that briefly transfers power from the locking device to the hinge side of the door to allow exit, or a request to exit motion sensor. This device unlocks the door upon the disruption of a passive infrared beam by a person approaching the exit.
All of these devices are normally hardwired to an "intelligent controller" that monitors a given number of controlled doors (anywhere from two to eight), transmitting their status through a hardwired connection (RS-422) to a main or master system controller. These intelligent controllers are usually installed in a remote location of the facility, in close proximity to the locked doors they support, while the master system controller is typically located in a secure, constantly manned area. There, a dedicated computer workstation is connected to the main controller to monitor the status of all locked doors.
Communication between the master controller and operator's workstation can be accomplished via a direct serial connection (RS232/RS422); a 10/100Mb Ethernet link using an unshielded, twisted pair, Cat. 5/5e cable; or dial-up modem. The operator's station can be a standalone unit or it can reside on a local area network (LAN) or wide area network (WAN).
Several manufacturers offer starter systems, based on the number of doors being controlled, with basic packages offered in two- or four-door increments. Starter kits are typically expandable, allowing the system to support up to 32 — and sometimes 64 — secured doors. As a system grows toward capacity, it can usually be upgraded to a larger security management platform produced by the same manufacturer. This is made possible by designing newer systems to be backward compatible, allowing users to take advantage of the most recent technological innovations without having to replace their entire system. Larger systems are normally composed of several intelligent controllers linked to each other via network architecture and to a master controller capable of supporting several PC-based operator workstations. This allows virtually unlimited expansion capabilities, including multi-site monitoring and control functionality.
However, the key element in any access control system, regardless of size or complexity, is the actual software package used by that system. The software and its associated applications provided by specific internal programming supply the many features and functions necessary for the successful security management of any facility.
The power of automation
The software programs driving the majority of available access control systems have a UNIX-based architecture (trademarked, industry-standard computer disk operating system), using either an AIX (IBM proprietary protocol based upon UNIX) or LINUX (an open source or "free" version of UNIX) operating system, which has transformed the access control system from basic intrusion detection to a robust, integrated security management tool. It has become a common practice in the industry for manufacturers to supply even the most modest startup system with a software package that either already provides enhanced access control capabilities or can be easily upgraded in a cost-effective manner (Fig. 1).
Enhanced cardholder management capabilities are among the many advantages afforded by the standard software packages currently offered. Cards or badges can be assigned a priority level, which will either allow or restrict entry to a given area within a facility. Often, this includes control and use of elevators for both access to the elevator cab itself and travel to each specific floor. Additionally, the proper order (in/out) of card usage, known as "anti-pass back" can be enforced, preventing a cardholder from using his badge "out of sequence."
This is accomplished by using a card reader located on each side of a point of entry or exit, with each reader configured as either "in" or "out." In order to exit the facility, an individual must first enter, presenting his card or badge for a valid swipe. This prevents him from swiping his card to gain entry, and then holding the door open to allow others to enter behind him, without having their cards read. No one may exit the building without previously recording a valid entry using his own access card that same day or shift.
The same holds true for re-entering the building at a later time. One person cannot swipe his own card, then hold the door open to allow others to exit. Should this occur, the individuals passing through the door and leaving the facility without having their cards read will be unable to re-enter the following day. The anti-pass back function can be programmed as either active or passive. If active, an individual's card is deactivated, and any attempt to use it will result in an alarm with the door remaining locked. The passive mode will unlock the door, but will still report an alarm associated with the violation.
Card or badge readers can also be programmed for occupancy control of an individual area, often called the "two-man rule." This feature allows readers to maintain a count of the number of people in a certain area at any given time, preventing someone being the sole occupant of a highly secure or restricted area within the facility.
Through software and programming, an access control system's database can be configured to support an unlimited number of time and event schedules, such as allowing doors to be automatically locked or unlocked, card readers to be on- or off-line, or even change an individual cardholder's access status to any given area, based upon the time of day or day of the week.
The on-site creation of custom photo identification cards or badges is another common feature of today's access control systems. Using a compatible color digital camera and printer, a personalized access card with an individual's photograph and signature can be produced in minutes. Each person's signature and likeness resides in the system's database and is available almost instantly for positive identification at any operator workstation. An additional benefit is the ability to track each individual's card swipes for time and attendance purposes, with system data automatically transferred to payroll or human resources for immediate use.
Monitoring and control of the flow of traffic — both in and out of a facility — is not limited to human cardholders. Physical equipment and resources can be imprinted with an industry-standard barcode or magnetic strip, which is automatically scanned by any card reader that is passed within the facility. This allows the access control system to not only pinpoint an item's exact location, but also track and follow that article's movement throughout the building. This asset management and tracking option is a powerful tool for locating lost or misplaced equipment, and is also a compelling anti-theft deterrent.
Integrated applications
The ability to communicate with other life safety systems is one of the more noteworthy features provided by access control platforms. Interfaces with intercom and fire alarm systems, as well as with central stations, are among the many options available today. However, the interface to a video surveillance or closed circuit television system (CCTV) may be the most significant offering (Fig. 2).
Many access control system manufacturers routinely offer interface capabilities to nearly a dozen different commercially available CCTV systems. When linked, the two systems offer almost unlimited potential for life safety applications. Camera call-up is one of the most widely used features. This is accomplished by locating a dedicated CCTV camera at or near a secured door.
When an individual swipes the card reader associated with that door, the camera, through software and programming, automatically zooms in on the person's face, displaying it on the operator workstation's monitor. At the same time, the database is searched and almost instantaneously retrieves the photograph assigned to the specific badge being swiped, presenting a side-by-side on-screen comparison for security personnel responsible for allowing entry to the facility.
Another application of camera call-up commonly used involves linking a dedicated camera to a specific secured point of entry. Should an intruder breach the entry, the camera is called up to immediately zoom in on the individual's facial features, and begin recording the event.
Access control systems have emerged as an integral part of thorough commercial building design, and the ever-changing technology associated with these systems will continue to challenge designers, specifiers, and installers to keep pace with their growing use and development. Keeping abreast of the latest improvements in security management technology will be a critical factor in the choice of appropriate products and their application in future projects.

Put a pie dish of about 8-inches in diameter in the freezer for at least 20 minutes. Half-fill the sink with cold water. This is just a precaution in case the custard looks as if it's about to split, in which case you should plunge the pan into the water and whisk the custard. I'm not saying it will - with so many egg yolks in the rich cream, it thickens quickly and easily enough - but I always feel better if I've done this.
Put the cream and vanilla bean into a saucepan and bring to the boiling point, but do not let boil. Beat the eggs and sugar together in a bowl, and, still beating, pour the flavored cream over it, bean and all. Rinse and dry the pan and pour the custard mix back in. Cook over medium heat (or low, if you're scared) until the custard thickens, whisking almost constantly: about 10 to 12 minutes should do it. You do not want this to be a good, voluptuous creme, so don't err on the side of runny caution. Remember, you've got your sinkful of cold water to plunge the pan into should it really look as if it's about to split.
When the cream's thick enough, take out the vanilla bean, retrieve the pie dish and pour the creme into the severely chilled container. Leave to cool, then put in the refrigerator until truly cold. Sprinkle with Demerara sugar, spoonful by spoonful, and burn with a blowtorch until you have a blistered tortoiseshell covering on top.
dPut back in the refrigerator if you want, but remember to take it out a good 20 minutes before serving. At which stage, put the bowl on the table and, with a large spoon and unchecked greed, crack through the sugary carapace and delve into the satin-velvet, vanilla-speckled cream beneath.

MAPLE HEIGHTS, OH (WOIO) - On July 19, 1989, a family member of Armond Earl contacted Maple Heights Police to report him missing. Maple Heights Police proceeded to the victim's apartment located in the 5300 block of Lee Road.
After several attempts to see if someone was home, officials knocked down the apartment door and observed the victim's nude body lying on the living room floor.
The bloody crime scene demonstrated the vicious nature of the murder.
It was determined that the crime had occurred several days prior to locating the body.
Officers noticed four wounds: two in the forehead area, and two in the chest area.
The Deputy Coroner determined the stab wounds had possibly been made by a screwdriver.
One of the items the police had preserved from the crime scene was a bath tub drain.
The bath tub drain was recently tested at the Regional Crime Lab. A DNA profile was developed which also matched to blood found on a screwdriver left at the scene.
The DNA was matched to Eric Register. Register's DNA also commingled with the blood of the victim. The assailant had also left a bloody fingerprint impression on a fan found lying next to the victim.
For more than 20 years, police attempted to determine whose bloody fingerprint was left at the scene.
The Cold Case Unit submitted a request to the Ohio Bureau of Criminal Identification and Investigation to compare the fingerprints of suspect Register to the bloody print found at the scene of the murder.
The bloody fingerprint was made by Register.
Working with the Maple Heights Police Detectives, the Cold Case Unit reopened the Armond Earl murder case in February 2010.
Register was indicted on six counts: aggravated murder, murder, aggravated burglary, and felonious assault. Register is scheduled to be arraigned on December 11.

Duarte, who owns an online business, flew in from Glendale, Calif., six days after Sandy struck to volunteer his services. He took the Herald on a tour of the shelter, with one caveat –– "clients," as he called evacuees, could not be interviewed or photographed. In fact, he said, no pictures could be taken inside or outside the shelter in order to protect victims' privacy. But he agreed to give the tour to let people know that the shelter is there and to make the public aware of the services it offers.
Duarte said that 600 Red Cross volunteers flew in from all parts of the country to aid in the recovery effort unfolding across the tri-state area. "We come en masse," he said.
One of them is Melody Brent, of Howard, Ohio, the shelter's assistant manager, who is a retired nurse. "They all have a story to tell," Brent said of the evacuees. "They have no electricity. It's cold. There are some people who have lost everything. People had to leave without much."
She noted that many older adults suffering from long-term illnesses had but 15 minutes to escape flood zones, many forgetting precious medications in the rush to get out. "We try to get them the resources they need," Brent said.
The shelter has a fully staffed medical triage center and pharmacy, and, Duarte said, representatives of the county Department of Social Services and the Federal Emergency Management Agency are on hand to help process victims' paperwork. The idea is to help connect victims to the available resources that will allow them to rebuild and return home.
Behind the shelter, there's a laundry center in the back of an 18-wheeler. Showers are available in the center's locker rooms. Clergy of all faiths come through to meet and pray with evacuees. Children are bused to their respective school districts and returned at day's end. The Red Cross even arranges for hair appointments.
The shelter, Duarte said, "is a one-stop shop to get [storm victims] back on their feet."

Using Lead to Make the Patch
Lead is a mysterious medieval substance. As used in bodywork, lead is revered by tradition but regarded as the dwindling domain of weary sages and old-world diehards. Leadloading has been all but forgotten by the unleaded generation, as modern plastic body-fillers have become the standard fare. The truth is, both have a place in the car crafter's toolbox, each having its advantages in a given application.
Plastic is at its best as a thin glaze over a repaired area. Where lead truly shines is in applications in which its structural strength, superior bond to the base metal, and lack of porosity are used to an advantage.
Lead, or body solder, is typically an alloy of tin and lead (usually a 30/70 mix, respectively) similar to the solders used on radiators and in electrical work. What aren't as familiar are the techniques employed when body solder is used. Far from requiring years of old-world apprenticeship, dabbling in lead dabbing can be quickly mastered by anyone familiar with handling a torch. Uses for lead in body repair can run from seam sealing to metal-finishing panel repairs to filling various body holes. The latter is the most relevant application for the neophyte metal fan and fortunately one of the easiest techniques to master.
Our saga began with a 1970 Dart Swinger 340. Removing the optional body side-moulding, we were faced with 48 1/4-inch holes riddling the delicate midsection of the virgin sheetmetal. Welding or brazing the hole is a high-heat process that would invariably creates some panel distortion, and stuffing holes with plastic filler is an inferior repair, temporary at best. Lead offered the only real choice. The accompanying photos detail the metal mayhem, proving that with a bit of old-time alchemy, even an uncouth tech writer can be transformed into a metal master

246COMMON – Omotesando
Note: The 246COMMON is closed since April 30th, 2014.
If you are looking for something out of the ordinary when it comes to restaurants in central Tokyo, I can wholeheartedly recommend 246COMMON in Omotesando, very close to Omotesando subway station. According to their website, it is a collective of cafes, restaurants, designers and makers who have gotten together in an unusual mix of entrepreneurs, chain stores and big corporations to create a rather wild open air food court in the middle of the most fashionable place on Earth. I have been in this spot hundreds of times as it has put to various uses over the years, the land itself probably the victim of the burst property bubble in the early nineties, I have seen it used as everything from a gallery spot to a car park to a farmers market. You might remember the post I did on the Hakushu Whiskey the other day, that cafe is at the far end of this spot. It gets buys later at night but it is by no means really discovered yet, so if you are in the area for lunch, dinner or drinks this summer, I really recommend heading over to try it out, There's also a few stores selling handicrafts, and who wouldn't want to buy handmade shoes while eating a vegetable burger and sipping champagne? I wish more of the urban blight areas in our cities could be put to instant creative use in this manner!

Some pets are not suited for travel because of temperament, illness, or physical impairment. If you have any doubts about whether it is appropriate for your pet to travel, talk to your veterinarian.
If you decide that your pet should not travel with you, consider the alternatives: have a responsible friend or relative look after your pet, board your pet at a kennel, or hire a pet sitter to visit, feed, and exercise your pet.
If a friend or relative is going to take care of your pet, ask if that person can take your pet into his or her home. Animals can get lonely when left at home alone. Be sure that your pet is comfortable with his or her temporary caretaker and home and any pets that person has.
If you choose to board your pet, get references and inspect the kennel. Your veterinarian or local shelter can help you select a facility. Read the HSUS fact sheet, Choosing a Boarding Kennel.
If you are hiring a pet sitter, interview the candidates and check their references. (A pet sitter may be preferable if your pet is timid or elderly and needs the comfort of familiar surroundings during your absence.) Read the HSUS fact sheet, Choosing a Pet Sitter.
Whatever option you choose, there are a few things to remember. Your pet should be up-to-date on all vaccinations and in sound health. Whoever is caring for your pet should know the telephone number at which you can be reached, the name and telephone number of your veterinarian, and your pet's medical or dietary needs. Be sure that your pet is comfortable with the person you have chosen to take care of him or her.

Readers of our blog:
You might be wondering why we haven't posted much to this blog recently (our newsletter notwithstanding). It's not because there hasn't been plenty of Lincoln news and anniversaries. Instead, we have something exciting to announce (in addition to the fact that a copy of the Emancipation Proclamation signed by Lincoln is going to be on display in the Cottage from September 22 until February 2013!!!)
For the last two months we've been undertaking a complete redesign of our website, www.lincolncottage.org. The website combines all of the wonderful content dozens of staff members have written for this blog, with a refreshing, sleek look that is easily navigable. The result is a brand-new website that will make it even easier to: explore detailed information about the history of the Cottage, plan a visit to Lincoln's summer retreat, and connect with us to make your President Lincoln's Cottage experience even more meaningful. (Once the site is fully live and navigable, we're going to shut down this blog since the current site will be routinely updated with press releases, new research, event announcements and a whole lot more.)
We're in the middle of launching the revitalized website, with the same address of http://www.lincolncottage.org. So stay tuned and bear with us as we start an exciting new chapter of President Lincoln's Cottage's online experience.
If you have any questions, please contact us at firstname.lastname@example.com. Thanks!

A Glossop man who carried out a sustained assault on his former partner couldn't remember the incident after drinking and taking prescription drugs, a court heard.
Carl Revesz and his partner Rebecca Coakley had been out in Glossop for the evening on June 6 when they had an argument, resulting in Ms Coakley leaving Revesz in the pub and walking back to their High Street East home, prosecutor Jennifer Fitzgerald told High Peak Magistrates' Court.
On the way, she bumped into a friend, who she invited back for a drink but when they reached Ms Coakley's address, Revesz was waiting, demanding to know where she had been.
Once inside, a row began and Ms Coakley fell backwards out of the kitchen door, with Ms Coakley telling police Revesz had punched her in the face but her friend saying he had grabbed her by the throat.
Ms Coakley then went upstairs to get some things together but Revesz followed her and while she was on the stairs, grabbed her with both hands around her neck.
"The next thing she remembered was waking up on the kitchen floor," Mrs Fitzgerald said.
She went to leave the property and headed towards the town centre but Revesz followed and chased her around a car.
She then couldn't remember anything until she woke up lying on her front outside her house, where her neighbour found her before calling police.
She had a cut to her lower lip, bruising to her arm, shoulder and back, and soreness around her neck.
Revesz was interviewed but told police he couldn't remember what had happened.
He added that if Ms Coakley had said he had assaulted her, then he must have done.
The 38-year-old admitted assault by beating.
John Wilford, defending, said: "I have to accept there are no mitigating circumstances.
"So far as the offence itself, Mr Revesz accepts he had been drinking. The mixture of alcohol and Tramadol he was taking for an injury were a bad combination.
"He has little or no memory of what occurred.
"He took himself off to the police station having been made aware of this incident.
"Quite clearly alcohol and medicine is an issue. He is not taking that medication any more and is trying to reduce his alcohol consumption."
Revesz was jailed for eight weeks, suspended for 12 months. He received a 12-month supervision order, and must attend a building better relationships programme, pay £85 costs and an £80 surcharge.

This magazine will be published on an interactive, digital platform to bring the future of health to our readers.
Our target audience is male, ages 22-50, with established interests in health, fitness, nutrition, or sustainable living. The readers would be relatively tech savvy, as our readers will access this digital magazine via iPad, iPhone, or other mobile reading device.
Our audience will have an interest in anti-aging, longevity, tech gadgets, natural health, organic living, sustainable living, and products related to these trends.
Our magazine will offer dig beneath the surface content that goes beyond conventional, traditional thought and understanding. Readers would be open minded enough to seek this type of information.
Our website should relate the following: leading edge information, cutting edge technology, health, eco-friendly, future oriented, expertise, masculine, and trustworthiness.
*Please note that this is a unique men's health magazine in that we are not a bodybuilder or fitness magazine. We will focus on natural, organic, authentic health for men.

We appreciate your creative ideas!
The site should offer images related to men and organic health as opposed to bodybuilding or the usual men's magazine. 42: Real Health for Men is the name of the magazine, which should be related on this page. The design should include tabs for "About" and "Media Kit."
Contact information for us is as follows:
Craig Koniver, MD
Lisa Benton, Psy.D.
None for the magazine. We do have an existing website for the other business at OrganicMedicineNow.com.
Menshealth.com is a good layout and I like these colors, but it's too busy.
Menwithpens.ca is a great layout with good colors. We like the minimalist look of apple.com and colourlovers.com.
If you can find a masculine way to present our logo and message within a minimalist, clean design, you'll be a winner for us!

CBS is putting its Big Three competitors to shame in actually covering the capital murder trial of Dr. Kermit Gosnell, but that's not saying much, as Thursday's CBS This Morning devoted a paltry 11 seconds to the latest development in the case. Norah O'Donnell highlighted that the abortionist's defense attorney rested his case without calling his client or any other witness to testify. [audio available here; video below the jump]
It was the second straight day that the morning show devoted air time to the news story. On Wednesday, O'Donnell gave a 13-second news brief on the Gosnell trial judge dismissing some of the murder charges against the abortionist.
NBC Philadelphia's Vince Lattanzio reported on Wednesday that "the day former abortion doctor Kermit Gosnell's defense attorney was set to begin presenting his case -- he rested....Jack McMahon did not call one witness to the stand in defense of Gosnell Wednesday, before announcing 'the defense rests.'" Lattanzio later cited a local jury consultant, who speculated about McMahon's eyebrow-raising legal move:
...While McMahon's choice not to bring forth any witnesses may surprise some, Philadelphia jury consultant Melissa Gomez says she has seen this strategy before.
"I have seen this happen before in criminal trials in which the defense decides that it has done enough in the prosecution's case through cross examinations to cause a reasonable doubt and either does not need or decides it is not worth the risk to call its own witnesses considering that the prosecution would also be able to cross examine," Gomez said.
Although she has not been following the day-to-day events of the trial, Gomez said, "Considering he got three charges dismissed, it sounds like he did do a decent job poking some holes in the prosecution's case, so maybe he was right to let the evidence be and just close."
The Philadelphia journalist also pointed out a detail that O'Donnell didn't give in her two news briefs – that Gosnell also faces a "third-degree murder [charge] in [Karnamaya] Mongar's death", who died in 2009 after the physician allegedly administered a "lethal dose of pain killers and anesthesia". Altogether, the murder suspect faces 380 criminal charges, even after Judge Jeffrey Minehart dismissed three of the original seven first-degree murder charges and six other counts on Tuesday.
In addition to O'Donnell's two news briefs, CBS aired a full report on the Gosnell case on the April 15, 2013 edition of CBS This Morning. This makes the broadcast network a leader on covering this criminal trial, but if this were a three-way horse race, CBS is winning only because the two other competitors haven't even left the gate.
The full transcript of Norah O'Donnell's news brief from Thursday's CBS This Morning:
NORAH O'DONNELL: The Philadelphia Inquirer says abortion Doctor Kermit Gosnell ended his defense without testifying or calling a witness. Gosnell is charged with four counts of murder. He's accused of killing babies born alive and viable during illegal late-term abortions.

On February 15, 1851, Shadrach Minkins was arrested by Deputy U. S. Marshall Riley, under the provisions of the Fugitive Slave Act. This act was passed by congress on September 18, 1850, as part of a compromise allowing California to enter the Union as a free state and ending the slave trade in the District of Columbia. The act made the federal government responsible for tracking down and apprehending slaves who had escaped to the northern states. Shadrach had made his way from Norfolk, Virginia, where he had been born into slavery, to Boston, Massachusetts, in May, 1850. He worked at the Cornhill Coffee House, where he was arrested that Saturday morning and brought across the street to the federal courthouse. Charles G. Davis was one of the lawyers who offered their services as Shadrach's counsel. They asked the court to postpone the proceedings until February 18, so that they could prepare a case. A group of about thirty African-American men had gathered in the hallway, and when Davis and another man who had been with Shadrach opened the door to leave, the men rushed the courtroom and grabbed Shadrach. He eventually found his way to safety in Canada. Charles Davis was arrested for his part in Shadrach's escape. Richard Henry Dana, who had founded the anti-slavery free soil party and was a prominent abolitionist, represented Davis at his hearing before court. The judge finally decided that there wasn't sufficient evidence to hold Davis for trial. In this extract, Richard Henry Dana argues Davis would not have supported the men who acted against the law because he, being a lawyer, would only act within the law.

I confess that I had never heard of escolar until last week when the environmental group Oceana found it being fraudulently sold as white tuna 84 percent of the time across the United States.
I confess that I had never heard of escolar until last week when the environmental group Oceana found it being fraudulently sold as white tuna 84 percent of the time across the United States.
Escolar is remarkable for possibly having more side effects than everything but fugu, or pufferfish, which can kill you.
It really says something when the Japanese allow preparation of fugu by licensed chefs but consider escolar so toxic that it's been banned.
The problem is that escolar, which is quite waxy, oily and delicious (I am told), can cause a couple days of very colorful, explosive digestive problems because of all that wax.
I guess the Japanese must consider that a fate worse than death.
Escolar is but the most vivid example of a problem stemming from the false labeling of fish in markets and restaurants.
Like the horsemeat that's showing up in hamburger across Europe, most of the mislabeled fish in this country isn't really going to hurt you. Mostly it's a matter of sellers taking advantage of people's ignorance or the sameness of many species of fish to extract more profit from the exchange.
So good for Oceana, along with the Boston Globe last year, for spending the time and money to do hundreds of DNA tests to determine what exactly is being sold to us.
It does the domestic fishing industry little good to have customers avoiding fish because they don't trust the sellers.
But Oceana's research comes at a time when people in the fishing industry in the Northeast are reeling from quota cutbacks.
Local seafood consultant Jim Kendall, who is a certified fish inspector, said: "It seemingly comes at a time that's very opportune, when they're pushing sustainability. It's a money maker for them."
"It wouldn't surprise me if they were driving a wedge" between buyers and sellers, he said.
Still, I'm giving Oceana the benefit of the doubt, because they really have exposed a serious problem.
Kendall doubts that domestic fisheries are the cause of the problem. After all, just about 9 percent of the fish Americans consume today is being supplied by American firms. All the rest is imported, often from countries that have lax or nonexistent regulation.
In other words, it could be anything in those frozen packages, and often is. It's a lot harder to disguise fish when it's coming right off the boat into your plant.
Kendall said "Twenty years ago, I took part in developing the plan they developed, a list of requirements that all these seafood-producing companies have to abide by."
Part of the reason was to minimize false labeling.
Others have taken it upon themselves to give customers all possible information about the fish they are buying. Foley Fish, with operations in New Bedford and Boston along with the Roche Bros. markets, last year started something they call "Sea Trace."
It looks like just what the doctor ordered: letting customers use their iPhones to scan a code that will tell them everything about that fish except maybe its birthday.
Laura Foley Ramsden, president of the company, told me "We're for integrity in seafood and we support efforts to enlighten consumers about what they are truly consuming.
"If there are additives they should be labeled. Products should be sold with the appropriate identity," she said.
I'll second that, and I think the enviros who uncovered the mislabeling are getting it right and deserve credit. I won't say the same for "sustainabililty" judgments. But that's another column.

In a unique cooperation; Europe's leading airfield mowing specialist, Spearhead has joined forces with Europe's leading provider of collection systems, Trilo.
By combining the knowledge and technical expertise of these two leading brands, we are now able to offer a new concept in airfield grass maintenance, Cut and Collect. Cut and Collect allows the one-pass mowing and cleaning of an area six metres in width.
Following the introduction of larger commercial aircraft and the subsequent requirement to mow, clear and maintain a 12 metre wide strip either side of the runway, the Spearhead/Trilo Cut and Collect system is becoming increasingly important in achieving this.
Increased capacityOne-pass operationReduced oprating costsFaster operationExtremely manoeuvrable
The Cut and Collect system folds neatly to within 2.8 metres for ease of transport to and from the airfield. The system allows an exemplary one-pass operation effectively cutting and clearing an area six metres wide.
All debris, including any litter, is removed from the airfield leaving the area clear of atrractants for birds and wildlife. High speed brushes in combination with a high pressure suction system effectively clear cut grass and other debris.
The one-pass operation leaves a beautiful finish with the area cleared and manicured for inspection. The Trilo S Serie provides the collecting action. Featuring a six blade fan and a centrifugal pump combined with heavy duty brushes, the machine allows all materials to be safely removed from the surface leaving an attractive striped finish behind the mower.
Cut and Collect height can be adjusted between 20 and 150 millimetres, perfect for low level cutting close to the runway or 'bottoming out' operations defined by European regulations throughout the wider airfield.

We should have got more runs on this track: Dhoni
India captain Mahendra Singh Dhoni admitted that 133 was not a defendable total on this Chinnaswamy track as the hosts went down by five wickets in the first Twenty20 International in Bangalore on Tuesday.
Scorecard"We should have got more runs. We got a good start, fantastic effort by the openers but then we kept losing wickets after that. We were short by 10 or 15 more runs which we should have got easily. 145 would have been a safe score on this track," Dhoni said at the post-match presentation ceremony.

Dhoni slams bowlers
Indian spinners Yuvraj Singh and Ravindra Jadeja bowled plenty of long hops and Dhoni did mention that without taking any names. "Our bowlers needed to pitch the ball up and not bowl short."
About giving Ravindra Jadeja the last over, Dhoni defended stating, "We took the gamble some three or four overs before that in finishing quota of fast bowlers. At that time, Pakistan were scoring at a high pace, we had to take that gamble."

'Mohammed Irfan was the surprise package for us'
Pakistan captain Mohammed Hafeez, who won the man-of-the-match award, said, "It is a great effort as we wanted to do well at the start of the series. Mohammed Irfan was the surprise package for us and everybody.
"We knew that we had a good attack with Umar Gul who has always been good with the old ball."
"Our bowlers restricted India where we wanted them to. Once the spinners came on, after the new ball, we knew we had a chance, we took a risk at the right time. It is a gift for the whole nation."

'Played according to the situation'
Shoaib Malik said that he merely played according to situation. "When you are playing against India, pressure is always there. I played according to the situation as we were struggling against that debutant (Bhuvneshwar). Hafeez played a brilliant innings."
On a cheeky note, he was asked whether one member in his family (obvious reference to wife Sania Mirza) was happy that Pakistan have won, Malik replied with a smile," I scored runs. Obviously, everyone will be happy."

Wharton Follies
Wharton is the business school at the University of Pennsylvania. Every Spring, students look forward to the Follies musical revue, which makes fun of the past school year and MBA life in general. Wharton Follies is both one of the largest clubs and highest profile organizations within Wharton, staging one of the largest productions of its kind at any professional school. Over the years, Follies has been transformed into a Broadway-level production.
In 2010 more than one hundred students and partners and four faculty and administration entertained more than two thousand MBA's, alumni and prospective students. Follies has repeatedly redefined the boundaries of bad taste in music and laughter for 35 years of Wharton MBA History. It is one of, if not THE, most popular event during the school year.
If you are interested in seeing clips from any of the shows, simply search "wharton follies" on youtube.
Wharton MBA students and alums - typically adults ages 25-35.
What We Need:
The current Follies logo is dated. We are looking for a new logo that the club will be able to use for years to come. This logo will be used on promotional materials and merchandise.
While this is a fun and presitgious show, we are not looking for anything cheesy, clowny or overly sophistocated/ritzy, as none of these are in line with our brand. Some ideas we had were to make it look/feel like a classic rock t-shirt design or an indie theatre company logo. However, we are completely open to your own artistic thoughts. We are open to color palette. Please see the attached document for our current logo as well as examples of existing logos we like.
Executional Mandatories:
1) We will be using this logo for both merchandise and our website, so we will need: Print - Vector format (.ai) and (.eps) at 300 dpi full color and black and white
Web - Jpegs and PNGs format at 72 dpi full color and black and white
2) This year marks our 35th anniversary. We'd like the logo to include this milestone, but be able to stand alone without it (since we intend to use the logo after this year).
3) While the logo itself can be multi-colored, we will need the ability to convert it into a single color or black/white for certain print jobs (ex: http://brainofj.com/2010/06/less-is…ays-more/).

True to the hype, the WaterMat is gaining momentum and is quickly becoming one of the most popular products for houseboaters today. The original 6- by 18-foot mat that weights just over 30 pounds, yet can hold up to 1500 pounds continues to be a popular choice and it retails for $799. But six years after the first WaterMat was sold, the company continues to grow as it now offers four different sizes, including the all-new WaterMat Shark, which is rated to handle 2300 pounds of fun in the sun.
Made of industrial strength foam and offering 10 percent more surface area than even the huge WaterMat Plus, the Shark is ideal for camps, resorts and other commercial settings where heavy use tests the durability of any water toy. The new WaterMat Shark, which retails for $1499, is designed to be 50 percent tougher than its other products, while keeping with its core value proposition of safe, easy-to-use, no-hassle fun.
Virtually maintenance free, there is nothing to inflate, nothing to pop, nothing to assemble and nothing to repair. All WaterMats roll out in a matter of seconds. No ladders to mess with and no sharp edges, screws or splinters, either. Wet or dry, WaterMats are lightweight and easy to carry on your houseboat or to put away at the end of the day.

Blackberry Muffin Recipe
01.14.13 by Jackie
When we first got married I had a lot free time, but ever since Aria came into our lives, I'm not able to be as attentive to Lulu and have decreased the number of romantic gestures I make. So this weekend I brought him breakfast in bed.
I made little blackberry muffins and baked them in heart-shaped molds. Lulu greatly appreciated them but he made one remark I found amusing. He thought the blackberries made it look like the hearts were "bleeding". He teased me and said "Is there a hidden message here?"

(CNN) -- Desmond Tutu's distinctive cackle cuts through the noisy clatter of cutlery at one of his favorite cafes.
Archbishop emeritus Desmond Tutu has breakfast at the Scotch Coffee House in Cape Town.
The South African cleric is at the Scotch Coffee House, a highland-themed restaurant complete with tartan tablecloths and bagpipes that sits incongruously in downtown Cape Town, a short walk from St. George's Cathedral where he served as Anglican Archbishop for ten years.
He has just told a joke to friends who've joined him for breakfast in what has become a tradition of sorts after Friday Eucharist. A CNN production crew is also there filming him for an upcoming edition of Revealed.
"Tell them about the rabbi and the poison... that is so good," his colleague and friend Professor Nulda Beyers gently prodded.
With a chuckle, Tutu began, adding, "It really is a lovely story."
"This man telephones the rabbi and says, 'My wife wants to poison me.' The rabbi says, 'Oh no, no, ok, let me talk to your wife.' So the rabbi calls the wife and they talk for over three hours and after three hours the rabbi calls the man. The man says 'yes?' The rabbi says, 'I talked to your wife for three hours... take the poison.'"
Tutu erupts into a fit of giggles, a familiar sound to anyone who has met or who has been fortunate enough to be within earshot of the Nobel Peace Prize Laureate.
"He likes to say that he laughs easily but he cries easily too, and that the emotions are very close to one another," said John Allen, author of Desmond Tutu's authorized biography "Rabble-rouser for Peace."
Allen, a journalist, met Tutu in 1976 around the time of the Soweto uprising when a protest by school students broke into a fatal melee when police officers started firing into the crowd.
"He wears his heart on his sleeve," Allen told CNN, adding, "It can be almost embarrassing at times."
"Once, as he got upset at a press conference about something F.W. de Klerk, the former president, had done, his face began to crumple as if he was five years old and about to burst into tears. He's an extraordinarily emotional person. And that's what makes South Africans love him. With Tutu, you know what you've got."
Desmond Tutu was born in 1931 in Klerksdorp, Transvaal, the second of three children to a teacher Zachariah Zelilo Tutu and Aletta Dorothea "Matse" Tutu. See a timeline of the life and work of Desmond Tutu »
"He'll tell you that he was relatively privileged as a child," Allen said. "And I suppose he was in the sense that he was the son of a primary school headmaster in a small, rural town west of Johannesburg. But in fact, he went to school barefoot until probably his teens. In winter, he would wear a cast-off coat of his father's which probably dragged down to the ground."
Desmond Tutu followed his father into an early career as a teacher but felt compelled to leave in 1955 after the government's introduction of the discriminatory Bantu education policy. For the young Desmond Tutu, one of the most appalling aspects of the new educational regime was the premise that black children should not aspire for more.
Tutu applied to join the church and was ordained as an Anglican minister in 1961. A year later he took possession of his first passport and left South Africa to further his studies and begin his life's work of preaching tolerance, equality and peace.
St. George's Cathedral is a special place for the preacher. After becoming the first black Archbishop of Cape Town in 1986, he gave countless sermons there, railing against a government still consumed by the idea of apartheid and encouraging and inspiring the downtrodden to rise up and reclaim their rights.
"It already had a reputation as a refuge against the viciousness of apartheid," Archbishop Tutu told CNN.
"But it became particularly so in the 1980s. For instance, there was a time when there were people who went out on a protest march and were beaten up by the police, and sprayed with pepper dye. And they ran into here. They were really bedraggled and almost had the stuffing knocked out of them."
Tutu was there to provide spiritual support: "I came and strengthened, or tried to strengthen them, to encourage them."
In 1984, Tutu's efforts to end apartheid in South Africa earned him a place on the rarefied list of Nobel Peace Prize Laureates.
"South Africa was on the backburner, in terms of priorities by the world, and getting that prize at the time helped to turn the spotlight on our situation," Tutu said.
"It also gave our people hope that the world is looking on and the world is watching and the world has come to accept that ours was a just cause, and it was also largely a non-violent cause. So I think that in a way could be said to be the watershed event, the before and after kind of thing."
The following year Desmond Tutu became Bishop of Johannesburg, then in 1986, Archbishop of Cape Town.
It was in St. George's Cathedral in 1989 that the Archbishop issued a call for a peaceful protest that drew more than 30,000 people onto the streets of Cape Town.
Within months, anti-apartheid activist Nelson Mandela was freed after 27 years in prison. Four years later, Tutu danced as he cast his vote in South Africa's first democratic elections; a vote which helped elect Mandela as the country's first black president.
Tutu was by Mandela's side on his inauguration day in May, 1994. Today, he's in Washington to witness what he's said to have called the United States' "Mandela moment."
During his lifetime, Tutu has campaigned tirelessly for the oppressed and disadvantaged. He remains committed to drawing international attention to the AIDS epidemic in Africa, to ending the plight of Zimbabweans under the dictatorship of Robert Mugabe and to appealing for peace in the Middle East and Darfur.
He's Chairman of The Elders, a group of exceptional world statesmen and human rights activists, who aim to use their collective experience and unrivaled contact lists to promote peace.
On top of his commitments as patron to various hospitals and charities, he's setting up his own organization to perpetuate his legacy. The Desmond Tutu Peace Center is due to open in 2010.
With all that on his plate, it's a wonder Desmond Tutu has time for breakfast. "Your usual milo?" asked the waitress at the Scotch Coffee House. "A milo and a fruit cocktail please, yes."
He barely has time to consume them amid the lively conversation.
Tutu acknowledges his schedule is crowded, but says he strict when it comes to time with God.
"You just have to be firm and say I am not going to be available. Otherwise, I would disintegrate," he said. "If I didn't have this spiritual backdrop I know I would be just an empty clanging symbol."

Introduction for the Teacher
To prepare yourself spiritually to teach this lesson, please read and ponder the following:
When Jesus Christ was on the earth, He established His Church. After Christ's Crucifixion and the deaths of the Apostles, the fulness of the gospel was lost, and the true Church was taken from the earth. Through the Prophet Joseph Smith, the fulness of the gospel has been restored, and the true Church of Jesus Christ is on the earth again. (See D&C 1:15–30; Joseph Smith—History 1:68–72.)
Bring a copy of the scriptures. Mark D&C 115:4 so that you can turn to it easily.
Bring a picture of the current President of the Church, if available.
Learning Activities
Begin with a gathering activity. For ideas, see page 3.
Invite a child to give the opening prayer.
Display the picture on page 106. Tell the children that this is a picture of Jesus Christ and we belong to His Church. Point to the picture and ask, "Who is this?"
Answer: "Jesus Christ."
Tell the children that Jesus told us the name of the Church in the scriptures. Open the scriptures and read D&C 115:4: "For thus shall my church be called in the last days, even The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints." Invite the children to repeat the name of the Church with you, a few words at a time.
Hold up your copy of the scriptures. Tell the children that Jesus tells us what He wants us to know in the scriptures and that in the Church of Jesus Christ we have scriptures. Have the children hold their hands open as if reading the scriptures. Invite them to say "the Church of Jesus Christ."
Explain that Jesus speaks to His prophets and that in the Church of Jesus Christ we have prophets. Invite the children to say "the Church of Jesus Christ." Show a picture of the current President of the Church. Explain that he is our prophet today. Invite the children to say his name with you.
Invite the children to march with you around the room while you sing or say the following words to "The Church of Jesus Christ" (Children's Songbook, 77):
I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints.
I know who I am.
I know God's plan.
I'll follow him in faith.
Briefly share your testimony that we belong to the true Church of Jesus Christ.
Invite a child to give the closing prayer.
Optional Activities
For the coloring activity and the matching game: Copy the illustration on page 107 for each child to color. Bring small bits of paper or something similar for the children to use as markers for the matching game; bring enough for each child to have three markers.
Let the children color a copy of page 107. While they are coloring, review the principles taught in the lesson. Point out details in the pictures and explain to the children what they are coloring. Read the words on the illustration to them.
Matching Game
Give each child three bits of paper. Display the illustration on page 107. Point to the drawing of Jesus and say, "This is a picture of Jesus Christ. We belong to His Church." Invite the children to put a bit of paper on the picture of Jesus on their copies.
Then point to the picture of the prophet and read the caption. Have the children say "prophet" and put a bit of paper on their drawing. Repeat for the drawing of the scriptures. Then have the children say with you, "I belong to The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints," a few words at a time.
Choose an activity from lesson 23 and one from lesson 24 to help the children review what they have learned about the scriptures and prophets. After doing these activities, remind the children that in the Church of Jesus Christ we have scriptures and prophets.
