The New Year is my favorite time of year because the energy of the season encourages us to go within to reflect on our past and focus on our inner vision and intentions. I spent the better part of Sunday outdoors soaking in the sunshine and writing down my aspirations for 2011. There's no better tonic for reflection and rejuvenation than spending time in Nature.
I used to get readings and predictions from astrologers and other intuitives, but have found Dr. Doreen Virtue's Angelic Oracle Cards to be amazing tools for tapping into my own higher wisdom and whatever spirit guides surround me.
Doreen Virtue (don't you just love her name!) has written dozens of books and oracle card sets about Angels, Archangels, Ascended Masters, Goddesses, Fairies and other Nature Spirits. I used to have most all of her oracle card sets, but I've been giving them away as the spirit moves me because now I have my favorites on my iPhone! Yes, that's right, they are now in the form of Apps! I was especially drawn to the Archangel Oracle Cards as they are so incredibly powerful, I quickly noticed all kinds of little miracles happening the more I used them.
I especially like that each Archangel is associated with a special color and gemstone and was drawn to create jewelry using gemstones to help attract certain Archangels.
Archangel Michael is a leader among Archangels. His chief function is to rid the earth and its inhabitants of the toxins associated with fear and directs those who feel lost or stuck with respect to their life's purpose or career path. He can stimulate the unmotivated or fearful into action. Michael also has an incredible knack for fixing electrical and mechanical devices, including computers, telephones, fax machines, and other types of electronics. I especially like to call on him to help clear my home and office of negative energies.
I was thrilled to discover that within the past few days, Doreen came out with two great new Apps: "Archangel Michael Oracle Cards" and a "Chakra Clearing" App that I highly recommend. I'm ready for 2011!
I quietly rang in the New Year with just me and two of my favorite men friends: My daughter's Dad, Kenwood Kennon (proprietor of Shadetree Inn) and my old NYC beau from back in 1987 writer Bob McDonald, who moved to St. Francisville 5 years ago and brought everything we needed to make Beef Wellington (He had read a recent article about it in the Wall Street Journal and wanted to see if we could duplicate it.) It wasn't nearly as difficult as we thought and was quite a treat! Here's the recipe:
History & Recipe for Beef Wellington
Although the evening ended around 9:30 (nope, no kissing at this soiree!), we concluded the evening by each of us lighting a candle and making our wish for a glorious 2011 (something I do every year):
Wishing you all the best for 2011! Happy New Year!!!

Pregnant mums and their children will be targetted after the director of public health at Calderdale Council revealed the state of health in the borough.
All directors of public health in England have a duty to publish an annual report covering the state of health within their community.
The report showed how Calderdale was falling behind in oral health and maternal obesity
The 'Foundations of Life – First 1000 Days' provides an independent assessment of the state of health in Calderdale by Paul Butcher, Calderdale Council's Director of Public Health.
"The first 1000 days are critical because they provide the foundations for virtually every aspect of human development – it is almost impossible to underestimate the importance of this period in a child's life," said Mr Butcher.
"There is a lot of evidence to show in getting things right in these first two years of life has a massive impact of economic proseprity.
"We have a lot of focus in this country around jobs, training, skills infrastructure developments. As important as those are the first 1000 days if life.
"The good news in the report is we have seen reductions in infant mortality, childhood obesity at reception year, unintentional and deliberate injuries and improvements in rediness for school.
"There is still work to be done on all these but there have been some good improvements. There are some areas still of concern."
While researching the report Calderdale Council's Public Health team spoke to local parents and health professionals and analysed local health data.
The report analyses 13 areas which can have an impact on a child's health in the very earliest stages of development, including teenage conceptions; low birth weight; infant mortality; smoking; breastfeeding; maternal obesity; relationships and poverty.
However, Mr Butcher stressed that the report was a building point to stimulate conversation between families to improve health in Calderdale.
"The report is to stimulate discssusion and debate about looking for improvement. That's its purpose. It's to say this is the picture of our health and our children. It's to stimulate that discussion and try move things forward.
"There is no magic bullets around this. Everybody needs to play their part in it. We know if they do play their part one in four children will live to a hundred.
"So thre is something we are setting in place here is a legacy for the next hundred years around the health, well-being and prosperity of of Calderdale if we get this right."
The Findings
The report presents some of the most recent local evidence, trends and areas for further action.
It draws on information from robust and reliable health systems, parental and professional views.
The report revealed concerns on the oral health of children and pregnant mums being overweight.
Maternal obesity increases the risk of still birth and perinatal mortality (deaths occurring in first seven days of life).
Maternal obesity data has not been routinely available however this changed in June 2015 via the national maternity and childrens data set.
The first 'picture' Calderdale has received from this set is of concern, with 18 per cent of mothers classified as obese.
Maternal obesity can lead to the need for additional healthcare due to complications associated with the pregnancy.
There are also technical issues to consider during pregnancy including difficulties in performing ultrasound examinations, the size of blood pressure cuffs required, issues concerning foetal monitoring, women having reduced awareness of foetal movements, problems encountered with surgical deliveries and equipment, and implications for regional and general anaesthesia.
The mean level of tooth decay in Calderdale for (2011/12) was 1.88 decayed teeth per child - significantly higher than the national average of 0.94.
In the same period, 39.2 per cent of children aged five in Calderdale experienced tooth decay (defined as one or more decayed, missing or filled teeth) – significantly higher than the England average of 27.9 per cent%
In Calderdale 14/15 there were 299 tooth extractions due to decay for children admitted as in patients to hospital, aged 10 and under. For zeor to four years in the last three year period there were 238 extractions a rate significantly higher than the England rate of 322.
However the report show positive steps being taken in Calderdale.
The percentage of babies born to teenage mothers in Calderdale has shown a welcome fall in recent years in line with national trends.
In comparison to other areas in Yorkshire and Humber the Calderdale rate of teenage conceptions is in line with the England average.
The proportion of women smoking at delivery has shown a welcome fall over the past year.
Programmes from stop smoking services and maternity services have clearly had an impact on the overall rates.
However it is clear from the data that there is significant variation across Calderdale and as such further concerted effort to reduce smoking rates in high prevalence areas is required.
In reception-aged children in Calderdale the Council has seen consistently significantly lower levels of overweight and obesity than the national average, though more recently rates have been in line with national rates. Rates are similar across Calderdale, though in Lower Valley are slightly less than the Calderdale average.

Multigenerational Living San Antonio, Texas
An old trend is making a comeback- Multigernation Living and it's happening here in San Antonio, Texas. Multigenerational families were a common way of life during the Great Depression. The lifestyle was a key feature in a 1970s television series following the lives of the Walton family, which had three generations living together in the Virginia mountains during the Depression. Since the economy took a dive in 2008, families have been moving in with one another in an effort to share expenses and keep the cost of living down. Many of our clients have experienced the death of a parent and the decision has to be made about what to do with the remaining parent: send them to a retirement community or assisted living community. There is another alternative and that is adding a room addition to accommodate that family member.
Some of my clients have opted to build a room addition or mother/father in law suite for their parents instead of sending them to a retirement community. By adding on square footage to their home, they are able to provide a safe environment for their parents and are able to see them more often. Plus, it nice to have an extra adult around to help with babysitting the kids."–Danny Garcia, Owner of Rhino Design Build, LLC in San Antonio, Texas.
Like most grandparents, they want to spend as much time with grandchildren as they can. Creating living space for them at your house is the easiest way to bring the families together, but still maintain privacy by keep their living quarters separately. Kitchen, utility room, sitting rooms, living room, etc are all part of the attached guest house. Many of our clients have separate entrances to the room addition so that everyone stays independent of each other. Having an extra set of hand around to watch the children and also help share expenses can a huge benefit.

The Kingdom is coming like a flood . . .
* Is our world eroding or evolving?
* Is global warming the beginning of the end?
* Will evil triumph over good?
* Are we hurtling toward obliteration?
In the midst of the darkest epochs in history, Jesus Christ had the audacity to teach His followers a prayer so shocking that it continues to defy human reason. Jesus turned to His tattered brigade of spiritual warriors and said, "Pray that My Father's kingdom would come and His will would be done on Earth, just as it is in Heaven." Did Jesus intend His prayer to be prayed by untold billions but to be answered for only a few in some distant eternity? What does The Lord's Prayer have to do with our present-day world, with its mounting crises and numerous calamities? Heavy Rain unearths the ancient mysteries of The Lord's Prayer to give you answers, and prepares the Church for a revolution that will transform every realm of society.

yesterday, as I was watching it rain…again…I was reminded of the time we went to the beach! It seems like it was FOREVER ago since it has rained nearly EVERY day since we returned!! I remember complaining a few times at the beach because the kids were up at the crack of dawn, or they were fighting or crying, and now I realize how silly that was to complain at all! We were at the beach for Pete's sake!
We did have the best time while we were there. We took a 4 hour chartered fishing trip! The first 20 minutes were awesome, the next 3.5 hours were a nauseated purgatory, and the last 3 minutes getting off at the dock were pure bliss! Walker got to catch a King Mackerel which he still talks about almost every day!
This was the first year we have been to the beach that neither of the kids SCREAMED when a grain of sand touched their skin. They both LOVED the pool and did take a few trips to the ocean (slightly against their will)
We got to enjoy some awesome seafood dinners, plenty of sun, sand and time with each other.
Now I just want to go back…no complaining this time…promise!

LOS ANGELES – A Rowland Heights doctor accused of murdering three young men through abuse of her prescription pad pleaded not guilty Friday.
Hsiu-Ying "Lisa" Tseng, 42, of Walnut entered her plea in Los Angeles Superior Court, court officials said. She was ordered to appear in court again Oct. 11 for a pre-trial hearing.
She's accused of second degree murder in connection with the deaths of Vu Nguyen, 29, of Lake Forest, who died March 2, 2009; Steven Ogle, 25, of Palm Desert, who died April 9, 2009; and Joseph Rovero III, 21, of San Ramon, who died Dec. 18, 2009.
Through a Rowland Heights medical clinic she operated with her husband, Advanced Care AAA Medical, Tseng is accused of supplying the young men with powerful medications such as oxycodone, methadone and xanax, without a valid medical reason.
Though she's charged with three deaths, testimony heard at her preliminary hearing in June indicated that 12 of her patients have died from drug overdoses. She has settled in civil court with families of five of the young men.
If convicted as charged, Tseng could face a sentence of 45 years to life in state prison.
According to county booking records, Tseng remained jailed in lieu of $3 million at the Century Regional Detention Center in Lynwood pending trial.

Obama: U.S. credibility on the line
President Barack Obama warned Wednesday that the international community's credibility — though not his — is at risk if there's no response to the use of chemical weapons in Syria, though he expects Congress to agree to take military action against Bashar Assad's regime.
"My credibility is not on the line. The international community's credibility is on the line," Obama said at a press conference in Stockholm, Sweden. "And America and Congress's credibility is on the line."
Story Continued Below
Obama's comments came during a joint appearance with Swedish Prime Minister Fredrik Reinfeldt, ahead of his brief trip to the G20 summit in Russia, where he's expected to continue pushing for international support for intervention in Syria, even with Russian President Vladimir Putin, who remains allied with Assad.
( PHOTOS: Syria: Where politicians stand)
The president deflected attention from his own role in potential action against Syria as Secretary of State John Kerry and Defense Secretary Chuck Hagel headed into a second day of public and private consultations on Capitol Hill, including an open hearing before the House Foreign Affairs Committee.
Obama said he is confident that Congress will authorize military involvement — and despite some vocal opposition, there were signs Wednesday that the Senate Foreign Relations Committee will pass a Syria resolution.
The panel's chairman, Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), said he thought the committee would be able to pass its resolution with at least one Republican vote, clearing the way for a broader debate of the full Senate.
"There is a reasonable chance that maybe by the end of the day we'll be in a place where we're in consensus," said Sen. Bob Corker (R-Tenn.). "People felt like this morning was formative — I think it allowed some consensus to develop."
Sen. Rand Paul (R-Ky.) told POLITICO that he will ask that a 60-vote minimum be set for the full Senate vote, but hasn't decided whether he would engage in a talking filibuster. "Whether or not I'll be standing up for a long time, I don't know about that," he said.
But while Obama said he is confident that Congress will authorize military involvement, there were signs Wednesday morning that support may not be as strong as it briefly appeared, as key senators suggested the process could be delayed.
( See POLITICO's full Syria coverage)
Sen. Bob Corker, the top Republican on the Senate Foreign Relations Committee, said Wednesday that he wants to push back the panel's vote on Syria resolution to avoid rushing members into making a decision. And the committee's chairman, Sen. Bob Menendez (D-N.J.), said he's "going to talk to members about process and make sure everyone is comfortable." A vote, he said, would come "hopefully today, and if not, before the end of the week"
An aide for Sen. Rand Paul told the New York Times on Wednesday afternoon that Paul was planning to filibuster any plan that authorizes military intervention in Syria.
At the press conference Wednesday, Obama was asked how he would move forward if Congress didn't choose to support military action, but the president didn't dwell on that possibility. "I believe that Congress will approve it," he said.
Still, Obama kept his options open, saying that while he wants to get congressional support — and would likely have called for it if he were still in the Senate — he can still go it alone. "I do not believe that I was required to take this to Congress," he said.
Though the "red line" Obama first spoke of more than a year ago has been cast as a standard that he set — and that is forcing him to act — the president insisted it wasn't his own construct but a clear international standard. "That's not something I just made up. I didn't pluck it out of thin air," he said. "I didn't set a red line. The world set a red line."

Idaho State Police pay $40,000 to settle claim over encounter with trooper
The Idaho State Police have agreed to pay $40,000 to an Arizona man who sued a trooper over the way he handled a traffic stop on Interstate 84 near Boise.
Jose Castillo alleged that trooper Justin Klitch targeted him for a stop on May 16, 2014, because he was driving a car with Arizona plates.
Castillo said Klitch followed him "for many miles and for more than 10 minutes" before pulling him over for failing to move into the left lane while passing a stopped emergency vehicle.
Castillo said he told Klitch that he had obsessive-compulsive disorder, which causes him to be sensitive to any lack of cleanliness. Klitch then told Castillo his doctor had told him Klitch that he had "more germs than anyone he had ever met before" and made other comments that Castillo alleges were intended to increase his anxiety. Klitch's comments were captured on his patrol car's dashboard camera.
Klitch found nothing illegal and told Castillo he was free to go.
Castillo sued on May 21, 2015, in federal court in Boise, alleging his car was illegally searched, his rights under the American with Disabilities Act were violated, and Klitch was improperly trained by ISP.
Chief District Judge B. Lynn Winmill dismissed Castillo's claims of negligent training and ADA violations in August but said he would allow the civil-rights claim to go to trial. The trial was set for Feb. 21.
The two parties held a settlement conference on Dec. 6.
"Mr. Castillo wanted Detective Klitch to be held to answer at trial," said Castillo's attorney, Craig Durham of Boise. "But we're pleased that the amount of the settlement goes at least some way to recognizing and remedying the harm to Mr. Castillo from this encounter."
The Idaho State Police did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

LG unveiled a plethora of devices at this year's CES in Vegas such as it's K Series line of affordable smartphones and displays. However the standout gadget for me is this foldable OLED display (pictured above). Although Samsung has demoed a foldable or rollable display in the past, LG's effort seems to be the one that's closest to finding its way to the market.
One can only dream of a day, when you could fit a 40in display in my messenger bag or a smartphone with a foldable large screen that could quite easily fit in my breast pocket.

This week, Dylann Roof was sentenced to death by a South Carolina jury for fatally shooting nine black church members during a Bible study session in 2015. Roof is the first person in American history ordered to be executed for a federal hate crime.
While the number of death sentences has dropped in the last 20 years, it's still legal in 31 US states. In most states and various countries where the death penalty is legal, it's customary to give sentenced prisoners a special last meal at their request. Restrictions do apply — for example, in Florida the final meal can only cost up to $40, and it must be able to be prepared locally.
Food photographer Henry Hargreaves has never agreed with the practice of the death penalty, so when he heard in 2011 that Texas was abolishing the special last-meal request for death-row inmates, he became fascinated by the tradition.
"I dug into [researching] it ... and found a public record [of the meals]. For the first time, these people became humanized," he told Business Insider. His series " No Seconds" and " A Year of Killing" explore the inmates' requested last meals through staged photographs.
"You don't know if they're being served on china plates, or plastic, or eating on their laps, or at a wooden table, so I tried to explore all these variations," he said.
Although Hargreaves has his own opinions on the death penalty, he didn't want to preach his beliefs with the work. "All I wanted was to make people have the conversation and be aware of it," he said. "That's the power of art; it [puts] a mirror up to the subject, and [viewers] can have a conversation amongst themselves and come to their own conclusions."

This month we're bringing you both ends of the spectrum!
First, on May 14th we're giving you the epitome of the matatabi (samurai gambler) movie: Lone Wolf Isazo, one of Raizo Ichikawa's most spectacular performances.
Employing flashbacks within flashbacks and a brooding romantic style poised somewhere between Budd Boetticher and early Sergio Leone, director Kazuo Ikehiro charts Isazo's descent from chivalrous naïf to vengeance-obsessed cynical wanderer, giving a definitive chronicle of the loneliness of the long-distance wanderer.
Immediately after Lone Wolf Isazo, we're showing The Devil's Temple.
In this little known Kenji Misumi masterpiece, an abandoned temple nestled in the mountains is the scene of a fateful encounter between a Buddhist monk, two women in love with the same man, and a fallen samurai (Shintaro Katsu, at his most ferocious). As destinies collide: it appears that not just the lives of the quartet are at stake, but their very souls. Hell awaits!
Both films are the finale of the our Monthly Classic Series, The Double Edged Sword: The Chambara Films of Shintaro Katsu & Raizo Ichikawa.
Then, on May 18th we're throwing RoboGeisha at you!
From the demented imagination of director Noboru Iguchi (Machine Girl) and special effects savant Yoshihiro Nishimura (Tokyo Gore Police) comes this brain-blasting vision of the future of genre cinema which defies description, sanity and good taste.
The evil, Tea Party-esque Kageno Corporation wants to return Japan to more traditional values and the weapons in their arsenal include their massive Geisha Army, two supernatural bikini-clad assassins and a plan to detonate a nuclear device on Mt. Fuji. But that's not enough! They're so evil that they also recruit two sisters and turn them into....RoboGeisha! However, RoboGeisha have uncontrollable hearts and it's not long before one of them begins to wonder if there's more to life than being a kimono-clad, robotic killing machine.
The screen swarms with nutso concepts like acid breast milk, butt swords and fried shrimp weapons while peekaboo sexiness and goofy ultra-violence are the order of the day. One part Japanese schoolgirl melodrama, one part grindhouse swordplay, one part open-plains chambara and one part Daimajin-esque, city-stomping "suitmation," RoboGeisha might just be the one cult movie to rule them all.
Might want to get your tickets for this one online before the crowds snatch up all the seats!

Newborn Babes Diaper Variety Pack
Try 6 brands of newborn size diapers
When your baby is born, how are you supposed to know which brand of diaper will be the right one for them? Which ones might cause a rash, leak or just not fit right? Leaky diapers and frequent pooplosions are often the result of a diaper not fitting right. Each brand of diaper is different, just as each baby is, so each fits differently.
The answer is to try a variety of brands of diapers to find the perfect diaper for your little one.
With the Newborn Babes diaper variety pack, you will receive 18 diapers to try, comprised of a 3-pack of each of the following 6 brands of diapers:
· Earth's Best TenderCare™
· Seventh Generation Free & Clear™
· Pampers Swaddlers™
· Huggies Little Snugglers™
· Parent's Choice™ Walmart brand
· Up & Up™ Target brand
All brands are labeled for babies less than 10 lbs, unless otherwise stated
Each brand sample pack is protectively sealed in plastic and clearly labeled so Mom or Dad know exactly which brand Baby is trying. The entire set is wrapped in a bed of tissue paper before being boxed*. Great care is used to protect the quality of your diapers.
Your diaper variety package will also include a Diaper Brand Rating Card to help you keep track of which diapers you loved, hated, or would use again.
Not the Diaper Sampler for you? Find more options...
"I hate to break it to you, but it's impossible to tell what diapers will be best for your baby before he or she arrives, but thanks to Diaper Dabbler, you can try a variety of diapers on your baby when he or she is born before you decide on the right kind for you." -Marissa mommyknowswhatsbest.com
*Based on the size or weight of the package ordered, your order may be packaged in a padded envelope mailer or box for shipping.
Customer Reviews
Love it!
Bought this pack for my daughter's first baby. She loves the gift and is looking forward to trying out the different diapers once her baby is born.
Great gift for my sister in law. Very nervous about picking diapers. And this was a great gift to help her start motherhood!
I received the box in a timely fashion. I haven't been able to use them yet but I like the assortment and there was some free wipe samples in my box which was exciting! I look forward to using these!

The most exceptional or memorable performance or item among others; a stand-out. Yeah, the opening act was a real show-stopper—the headlining band was disappointing in comparison! All the pieces in the designer's collection were excellent, but the wedding dress was a real show-stopper.

I enjoyed Bill Maher's tirade on his show Real Time Friday night, during its "New Rules" segment, about the ridiculous notion of Christians being persecuted in the United States. He started off by quoting a number of influential conservatives on the subject of supposed Christian oppression and showing just how over the top their words were.
Rick Santorum says that the treatment of Christians in America is so bad, we should keep in mind Nazi Germany: "…where you go from Christians — Jews, obviously, but also Christians — being not just persecuted but put to death." Again, 70% of America is Christian. Who's going to put them to death? The Hindus?
Yes, once again, some conservative Christians are using hyperbolic language that perceives a slippery slope from a loss of Christian privilege to mass martyrdom. The idea is ridiculous, and I was glad to hear Maher (as usual) skewer such egregious overstatement. But as spot-on as Maher's comments were, I know that they will, alas, not get this particular brand of conservative Christian to reconsider their claims. For I am certain that a conservative Christian (CC) will accuse Maher of quoting Santorum and company out of context.
CCs look at the world differently than a lot of other people do. To them, their faith isn't just something that they practice on Sunday and then compartmentalize to live and work in the secular world for the rest of the week. CCs see their faith as pervading their entire life, especially the moments that they don't spend in church. For this reason, they see everything they do as an extension of their religion, and if anything compels them to do something they believe is against their faith, they will protest against doing it.
CCs see themselves as put upon for a variety of reasons, but the two most prominent at the moment are the growing rights of LGBT people and the Affordable Care Act's mandate of certain forms of birth control, which they feel infringe on what they consider moral. When Ted Cruz says, "There's no room for Christians in today's Democratic Party," what he likely means is that there is "no room" (actually, there is) for Democrats against marriage equality and against Obamacare (among other issues). Of course, that's a narrow definition of "Christian," but it gets the red meat delivered to a conservative political audience.
Science is increasingly telling us that LGBTs are born with their sexual orientation in their DNA, so their homosexuality is part of who they are. Consequently, when someone discriminates against a gay person, the government more and more sees that as prejudice against an individual for something that can't be controlled. However, many CCs say that they don't discriminate against gay people as individuals but against "the homosexual lifestyle," a lifestyle that to them is manifested by immoral acts. In this way, CCs view gay people's homosexuality as what they do. For this reason, CCs bristle at the comparing the gay-rights movement to the racial-equality movement of the 1960s.
So, when a CC is asked to do something that (in however small a way) furthers the acceptance, equality, or visibility of LGBTs, they see that as an infringement upon their religious beliefs. If the government has mechanisms in place that penalize anyone for discriminating against gay people, religious conservatives see that as the heavy hand of government forcing a person to violate his or her faith. Devout right-wingers probably think about instances like this when they use the term "anti-Christian fascism."
The same thing goes for the Affordable Care Act's requiring employers of large companies to provide birth control and abortion services to their female employees: this kind of a scenario would be seen as the government "coercing" a business owner of faith who is against contraception etc. to violate their religious beliefs. The CCs codified that perspective in the Supreme Court's Hobby Lobby case, which publicized the owner of any establishment seeing their business as an extension of their faith, that their faith was not something that they merely professed in church.
When Sean Hannity speaks of the "liberal" media as anti-Christian, he probably means, in part, the information industry's recent acknowledgement and dissemination of the views of the so-called "New Atheists," like Sam Harris and Richard Dawkins, whose views CCs find offensive and inflammatory. He probably also means the news media constantly couching the gains for same-sex marriage as a civil-rights issue for LGBTs and not as a governmental appropriation of an exclusively opposite-sex institution revered by most Christians.
And meanwhile, efforts to ensure that the government isn't favoring one religion over another (say, by removing the Ten Commandments from a courtroom) are seen as another governmental attack upon Christians. While the First Amendment protects most forms of religious practice and speech, CCs feel put upon if they can't use the government as some kind of vehicle for Christianity (or at least monotheism), so they view the government affirming its secular status as intolerance against religion in general, and Christianity in particular.
If everything is the work of the CC's deity, then everything is an extension of their religion, and anything that impinges on their everything may be seen to negatively affect their First Amendment religious rights.
In short, many conservative Christians want to be treated as though their religion is akin to race — or for that matter, to sexual orientation — as something that is inherently part of their biology. So, CCs strive to portray disrespecting or criticizing religion as something tantamount to racial discrimination. It's issues like this that conservatives of faith — misguidedly, I believe — think about when they say Christianity is under attack in the good ole U.S.A.
I wish that there were something to say to this kind of conservative Christian to reorient their view of the non-(devoutly-)Christian world as something that is (for all intents and purposes) contaminated by sin. This is not something that everyone believes, and conservative Christians, in this officially secular society, need to get along with people outside their denomination as best as they can — without feeling that doing so violates their faith.
I wish that there were something to say to this kind of Christian conservative to make them see just how hyperbolic and unnecessary such slippery-slope and argumentum ad Hitlerum rhetoric is. If there were, then maybe the conservative Christians and the rest of America would at least be on the same page and have something politically sensible to argue about — and maybe even to agree on.

20% discount on medicine
and Accessibility Law implementation
The World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that at least 10% of given population has disabilities. In Philippines, with around 90 people, an estimate of nine million Filipinos affected with some form of disability. While 90% of this 9 million are poor and 80% of them are living in the rural areas where programs and services are not available or are inaccessible due to the prohibitive cost.
Medicines are vital to the day to day existence of Persons with Disabilities (PWDs) including children with ADHD, autism, seizure disorder and other developmental disabilities who rely on their daily maintenance to stabilize their condition. Cancer survivors with resulting impairment consume daily doses of medicines.
In 2006, Republic Act 9442, an amendment to RA 7277, known as the Magna Carta for Persons with Disabilities mandates all drug stores and pharmacies to provide 20% discounts for every purchase of medicines similar to that of the senior citizens. It has been more than a year since the Department of Health issued Administrative Order No. 2009 – 0011 that mandates the full implementation of this law. However, to this date the Drug Store Association of the Philippines (DSAP) led by Mercury Drug Corporation (a company operating more than 450 drugstores) continuously violates the aforementioned law. Only Watson complies with the law.
The RA 7277 is an act providing for the rehabilitation, self-development and self-reliance of persons with disabilities and their integration to the mainstream of society and for other purposes.
Members of Disabled People's Organization (DPOs) around the country have numerous reports on the refusal of drugstores to provide the discount. For this reason, PWDs from different DPOs joined ranks and filed their complaint against drugstores violating the provision in R.A. 9442 to the Commission on Human Rights.
BP344, also known as the Accessibility Law, is an act to enhance the mobility of disabled persons by requiring certain buildings, institutions, establishments, and public utilities to install facilities and other devices. This law is in effect for almost three decades now but has been violated in numerous instances. The complaint pointed out the inaccessible footbridges which were all built in violation of the provisions of the Accessibility Law.
In some footbridges, there are futile attempts to include accessibility features. These efforts made it more dangerous for PWDs to use them. The footbridge in EDSA corner Quezon Avenue is one example. One of the approaches of the ramp is not cemented and most of the time is wet and muddy. The ramp is too steep that even with assistance it would be an arduous task to go up plus the dangerous downhill trek. The structures of the steps are also not helpful for blinds using walking canes. There are no tactile markings for directions. All these and the other flaws are more of hindrances and not in consonance with the Accessibility Law.
After submitting the formal complaint letter to the CHR, the group went to the Mercury Drugstore in Philcoa. The press people witnessed the violation continuously being committed by Mercury drugstore with regards to the implementation of R.A. 9442. Even after presenting the requirements for purchasing medicine, no discount was given.
The group then proceeded to inspect the EDSA/Quezon Ave. footbridge. The press people experienced the difficulty of using the ramp on a wheelchair and the life-threatening alternative of crossing EDSA worming through the traffic.
PWDs are part of our society. It is their hope to be heard and be included in the mainstream of humanity.

"We libertarians tend to think of ourselves as a tiny, embattled sect, ignored when we're not reviled." But, he says, "...there's increasing interest in figuring out how this strange tribe thinks."
A new study, "Understanding Libertarian Morality," has some answers.
Healy says:
"Libertarian morality?" you say. "Isn't that an oxymoron, like 'military intelligence' or 'law school talent show'?" No, smartass, it isn't. "Libertarians are not amoral," Haidt and his colleagues report. (Whew!) We simply have "a unique moral-psychological profile."
He continues:
"Liberals and conservatives beat us handily on "agreeableness" and "extraversion." Libertarians tend to be dispassionate and cerebral, less likely to moralize based on gut reactions like disgust (one source, the authors suggest, of our disagreement with conservatives on social issues).
"We found strong support," they write, for the proposition that libertarians "will rely upon reason more — and emotion less — than will either liberals or conservatives." Blubbery Clintonian empathy isn't our bag, baby; we don't "feel your pain." Where "liberals have the most 'feminine' cognitive style ... libertarians have the most 'masculine.' " And where others often "rely on peripheral cues, such as how attractive or credible a speaker is," when formulating opinions, libertarians are more likely to pay "close attention to relevant arguments."
"Conservatives routinely outscore liberals on measures of self-reported happiness (getting to rub that in makes conservative pundits even happier). Alas, per Haidt, et al., "Libertarians appear to be less satisfied with their lives when compared to liberals and conservatives."
"The authors speculate that this may be due to relatively lower social connectedness: libertarians "score high on individualism, low on collectivism, and low on all other traits that involved bonding with, loving, or feeling a sense of common identity with others."
And now, for Healy's money quote:
"But I prefer the explanation offered by my friend John Hasnas in his essay, "What It Feels Like to Be a Libertarian." (First line? "I'll tell you: It feels bad.")"
Read the rest HERE.

Description :
Cheap LAMP in UK
Product Description:
This panel has no ballasts to burn out like other plant lights.
It does not run hot, just warm. You will not experience unsightly brown burned leaves when they accidentally touch the LEDs. This is common with most other lights that get very hot. This more controlled running temperature reduces the need to water so often and keeps rooms with plants from getting uncomfortably hot in the summer months requiring additional air conditioning. Extreme energy efficiency permits this new LED panel to pay for itself many times over each year in electricity savings.
It saves 50% to 90% in energy consumption compared to incandescent bulbs or fluorescent tubes. Wide angle projection insures uniform leaf coverage. Scientifically calculated even blending of red and blue LEDs eliminates the time consuming task of repositioning separate colored lights back and forth trying to achieve uniform exposure. 14 to 16 hours per day is all that is necessary for maximum plant health with this wave blended lighting system. This allows distances 6" and less between the LEDs and the plants accelerating photosynthesis. Red and blue wavelengths are for growing and flowering of plants.
The typical white plant lights that are very hot is unnecessary and just consume excessive electricity.
The purity of the LED generated light lengthens flowering periods.
These LEDs turn on instantly and can be turned on by hand each day or work well with all standard lamp timers.
The design of this new all in one Full Spectrum plant lighting panel allows maximum level photosynthesis food production, growth and flowering all in one.
It is the new Full Spectrum system providing maximum plant health, beauty andproductivity.
These LED light panels are perfect as an all year plant light for permanent plant benches and especially productive for spring vegetable and flower seedling development. Color: Red + Blue = Purple looking to the eyes Working Voltage: 12V or 110V- 220V Power: 13.8 Watts

10 Woodmoon – Papa, I know in my heart that I did the right thing when I broke the demon-drum. I took RESPONSIBILITY, Papa! You NEVER saw that in me, that I could do that, but I can and I did! Now EVERYONE hates me, but I stopped us going down a path of no return. If we had fought those soldiers for real we'd be in BIG TROUBLE, possibly even DEAD!
Anyway, I had to follow through on my intentions or the others would have been more cross with me, so I tried to track the mantis-dragon again, and…we got lost! EVERYONE STILL HATES ME! Papa, why is doing the RIGHT THING so hard? We camped in the POURING RAIN and had a miserable night in the dragon's jungle.
11 Woodmoon – Papa, there's so much mud! Everyone was geared up for a miserable day, but then that lucky fox showed up, and today we found the DRAGON! So I began to talk to the dragon, since I felt the BEST THING was to ask it to move around the land regularly and STOP the OVERGROWTH. Surprisingly it was Sakura who took up my argument, and we cut a DEAL with the dragon! We learnt that the dragons are under threat from the demons, and are reinforcing the BARRIERS to keep the demons underground…or something like that! Anyway, most of our group made a pact to save the dragons…Minami didn't, because Minami just likes money, and San just seems to believe in the natural order of things. So everything was starting to turn out alright, maybe? We snuck back to town (Bloom…field…ville?) and spoke to the Ishida clan lady who was cross about the drum so we didn't get paid, then Sakura got a bit weird about the Ishida lady's clothes. She asked us to leave.
12 Woodmoon – Leaving town, the jungle was already receding a bit, and we encountered a trader's caravan under attack by a BASILISK and some bamboo creatures! I got skewered by bamboo (OWIE!) but Minami saved me. We won the day and chatted with a lady, Anastasia, who survived the attack on the caravan. (I think she liked Minami but he didn't notice). We escorted her to the next town, Highgate. She was a magistrate. There had been a MURDER in the town, a professor allegedly suffocated by his assistant. We found ourselves deputised to investigate the case! We interviewed some staff and investigated the body. We figured out that the professor was not suffocated, but was POISONED! We arranged to meet with Anastasia the next day…

Paul Verhoeven's film gets lovingly remade by more than 50 filmmakers using everything from live-action to puppets because "if anyone is going to ruin RoboCop, it's us."
Connected through various filmmaking channels (including Channel 101) we're 50 filmmakers (amateur and professional) from Los Angeles and New York who have split the original RoboCop into individual pieces and have remade the movie ourselves. Not necessarily a shot-for-shot remake, but a scene-for-scene retelling. As big fans of the original RoboCop, and as filmmakers and film fans admittedly rolling our eyes at the Hollywood remake machine, we've elected to do this remake thing our own way.
José Padilha's remake starring Joel Kinnaman hits theaters February 12th.

53 Mill?
I read in the paper yesterday that this Justin singer kid made 53 million dollars. My guess is that his fans are children. What are the children doing to earn all that money to support this guy? Just "being" should not be a golden ticket. I had hoped that when this generation of parents quit smoking and started recycling and eating less sugar and exercising and going green, that it would somehow spill over into less spoiling of their kids too. Entertaining kids used to be so cheap. LOL I'm getting old!
I'm grateful that I got to spend some time with a sponsee last night talking about the 10th step. It's amazing to me how talking to another addict just reiterates to me what needs to be done and why.
I have a three hour meeting at work today, the kind with charts and graphs that make you want to snooze or pull your hair out and run. I'm finding it more and more difficult to sit through things like this.
I am going to seek some joy today. I'll ask God to help me find it....but I will do the seeking myself. For me, happy kind of depends on the circumstances but joy is a feeling in my heart that is not dependent on anything but God and life.

There would have been a time in my life when I would have sold my soul for the fame and money of Justin B. Today, as a result of recovery and gOd, I'm just fine being average (wages and all!) I like my anonymity and the simplicity of my life.

I started out today with stress, then I said "WWPD" (what would Pammie do?)
Pammie would say you can make this day into anything you want (you said that here somewhere in the last couple of weeks). So I made a conscious effort to see the good in my life. The Dad was still being a jerk, but I was joyful.

I think you must be talking about Justin Beiber. The kid started posting his songs on youtube and Music City, or whatever, came calling.

Washington Monument (DC)
Touring the Washington Monument
The Washington monument is the tallest stone structure in the world. It is made from marble, granite, and bluestone gneiss. The monument, dedicated to George Washington, is also the world's tallest obelisk, standing just over 555 feet high.
The original design was for a 600 hundred foot obelisk but it was decided to make the height of the structure ten times the width of the base, meaning the optimal height for the Washington Monument would be 555 feet and not the originally planned 600 feet.
Construction of the monument began in 1848 but wasn't completed until 36 years later in 1884. At that time, it was the tallest structure in the world. The first stone was laid on July 4th. President Polk was in office at the time. A number of famous people attended that first ceremony including Abraham Lincoln and two other future presidents: Buchanan and Johnson. Also in attendance were Mrs. James Madison, Mrs. Alexander Hamilton, and George Washington Parke Custis, along with a couple hundred thousand spectators.
In 1854, construction of the Washington monument was halted until 1877 due to the civil war, lack of money and the influence of the Know Nothing party. Three different color bands of stone separating top and bottom is evidence of the halted construction. There are 36,491 blocks in the monument.
In one of the cornerstones, the builders hid some relics from Washington's time. The hidden objects include a personal portrait, copies of the Constitution and Declaration of Independence, an American flag and newspapers from at least 14 states.
There are 897 steps leading up to the lookout windows which are 500 feet up. You can't walk up anymore. Everyone must take the elevator.

I love a painted dresser/hutch (called different names across the world!) - it's quite a strong English look I think, there are some amazing painted furniture options available over there, not so many in Australia I've noticed. There's just something really homely and warm about this look for me.
Laura Lee Burch
Little Yellow Barn
So here is my interpretation of the painted dresser look using chalk paint, the main body in a bone white and the the internal section in a beautiful bright blue. Lightly distressed and sealed with wax for protection.
I'm really pleased with how it turned out! Great storage and eye candy for someone, she's currently for sale.
A little bit of 'thumage' in a few shots there, sorry, must do better :)

Lower Sixth students maximised the opportunity to gain careers experience from a selection of alumnae, who kindly returned to Prior's Field on Monday evening for our annual Careers Dinner.
Student Sammi reports, 'The dinner was a chance for the Lower Sixth to meet and network with 10 Old Girls who talked to them about their careers and how they got to where they are today. Some were able to offer work experience and others support with CV writing. The evening was a great success on both fronts – it was lovely to have the Old Girls back and also great for the Lower Sixth to make links which they can follow up.'
Alumnae who kindly gave their time to attend the evening were: Clare Aldrich, Researcher in Technology and Change; Laura Cheese, Assistant TV Location Manager; Taylor Barnett, studying International Development; Suzie Forbes, Marketing and PR Assistant; Adelaide Goodeve, runs her own business as a Lifestyle Success Coach; Beth Healey, Constituency Caseworker; Madeleine James, Commercial Property Solicitor; Becky Merrick-Wilson, HR; Anastasia Paterson, on an IBM placement year; Julia Velati, Senior Business Standards Consultant.

To The Safe Haven
19.5 X 31 Inches
Wind and waves batter the fragile little ship, threatening to sink her. All elements seem to celebrate here their violent feast SOS! – Save Our Souls! This call for help appears to go from the ship in distress. And it will not sink! Mysterious hands folded in prayer come from the dark. Protecting the guiding light of a candle, they bring help to desperate seamen. Ship in storm is a symbol of man struggling through the turbulent sea of adversities of life; the safe harbor symbolizes the Savior.
