A great classic breakfast for a holiday morning, or an average weekend morning! Top with your favorite jams, nectars, or butters (I think an apple or pumpkin butter would be top-notch for a holiday feast). This recipe makes about six 2″ mini biscuits, or 3-4 larger biscuits. Perfect if your baking for one or two, if you're baking for more.. you can easily double the recipe without issue.
1 C All-Purpose Flour (I used King Arthur Organic) – you could also use a 50/50 blend of AP and Cake Flour
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
1/4 tsp sea salt
3 TBSP Earth Balance Vegan Butter, super cold
3/4 C Coconut Milk + a splash of apple cider vinegar (I didn't measure, but probably close to 1/8-1/4 tsp)
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1. Preheat oven to 400°F. Splash in the apple cider vinegar with the Coconut Milk, set aside.
2. Whisk (or blend with a fork) together the flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt. With two knives (or pastry cutter), cut in the EBVB.
3. Add the vanilla extract to the "buttermilk." Add milk mixture to flour/butter mixture. Stir until just combined. Slowly slowly, gently gently here. Once combined, turn out onto lightly floured surface and pat into a round until about 3/4-inch thick. Cut with biscuit cutters, or if you want to get whimsical.. any shaped cutter of choice.
4. Place biscuits on parchment lined baking sheet or pizza stone. Bake 16-18 min. If they aren't brown enough to your liking.. you can turn on the broiler for a few. Serve with jams, agave nectar, Earth Balance, fruit, veg.. whatever! I topped mine with some festive Cranberry Habanero jam (found at the Feast of Artisans Farmer's Market, handmade by the lovely Jackie's Gourmet).
Happy Baking!

It is clear that a proper understanding of what academic English is and how to use it is crucial for success in college, and yet students face multiple obstacles in acquiring this new 'code', not least that their professors often cannot agree among themselves on a definition and a set of rules. Understanding Language Use in the Classroom aims to bring the latest findings in linguistics research on academic English to educators from a range of disciplines, and to help them help their students learn and achieve. In this expanded edition of the original text, college educators will find PowerPoint presentations and instructor materials to enhance the topics covered in the text. Using these additional resources in the classroom will help educators to engage their students with this crucial, but frequently neglected, area of their college education; and to inform students about the unexamined linguistic assumptions we all hold, and that hold us back. You can find additional materials on the Resources tab of our website.
I am pleased to recommend this essential book on academic English from a renowned linguist. The accessible style, lesson plans, PowerPoints, and current topics make it a more useful text for students and instructors. Information on voice and speech science enhances the material on form and function of language.- Robert M. Goldfarb, Adelphi University, USA
This important and highly accessible book demonstrates how an understanding of basic linguistics can help students improve their academic English. The comprehensive resources mean that the reader does not require a background in linguistics, and the clear and entertaining accompanying teaching materials will greatly assist educators with their lesson plans.- Kerry Mullan, RMIT University, Australia
Meticulously researched and methodically organized, this book is written in a clear, accessible style. Informed by extensive interviews and her own years of classroom experience, Behrens' engaging examples demystify the academic English that we want our students to master. I value this book as a resource for understanding the needs of my students, particularly those in their first year.- Mary Boldt, York College of Pennsylvania, USA
Susan J. Behrens is Professor of Communication Sciences and Disorders, and Director of the Center for Teaching Innovation and Excellence, Marymount Manhattan College, New York, USA. She contributes weekly lessons on writing and English composition to The New York Times in Education (nytimesineducation.com). Her other publications include Grammar: A Pocket Guide (Routledge 2010) and Language in the Real World: An Introduction to Linguistics (with Judith A. Parker, Routledge 2010).

Just how whacked is Rick Santorum? Whacked enough to blame pedophilia by Catholic priests, protected from the police for decades by the church he belongs to, on liberals and "moral relativism." He even thinks it's hypocritical for liberals to criticize priests for raping children because they favor sexual freedom for adults:
It is startling that those in the media and academia appear most disturbed by this aberrant behavior, since they have zealously promoted moral relativism by sanctioning "private" moral matters such as alternative lifestyles. Priests, like all of us, are affected by culture. When the culture is sick, every element in it becomes infected. While it is no excuse for this scandal, it is no surprise that Boston, a seat of academic, political and cultural liberalism in America, lies at the center of the storm.

Actress Sienna Miller is taking steps to sue British tabloid News of the World over an explosive scandal in which reporters hacked into the phones of some of that country's most well known public figures, reports the Guardian.
The story gained new legs recently due to a large article in the Sunday New York Times Magazine that detailed how reporter Clive Goodman of the Rupert Murdoch-owned paper gained access to the voicemails of royals like Prince Henry and Prince William, as well as other government officials, celebrities and sports stars and used that information in its reporting.
Verbatim voice mails that emerged in a news story after an incident involving Prince Harry at a London strip club in 2006 revealed to investigators the reach of the scandal, but critics of the police say that inquiries were slow played due to close ties between Scotland Yard and the News of the World.
U.S. & World
Miller, an on-again, off-again girlfriend of movie star Jude Law, will join former deputy prime minister John Prescott as well as four others, including an investigative journalist, in asking for a court to review the conduct of Scotland Yard, the police agency that has known about the phone tapping since 2006.
The 28-year-old "Layer Cake" star initiated legal action after learning that Glenn Mulcaire, a private investigator for News of the World, gained access to her cell phone numbers, her account information and her PIN codes, allowing him to listen in to her messages.

Newton LED Floor Lamp by Andrea Branzi for Nemo
Key Features
Gravitate toward the curious beauty of the Newton LED Floor Lamp by Nemo. Designed by Andrea Branzi, this playful fixture is inspired by the story of the apple that fell on Isaac Newton's head, prompting him to create his law of universal gravitation. A curved arm extends from the top of the lamp's body, forming a half-circle and suspending an artificial apple at its end. The arm's center point supports a disc-shaped white painted aluminum diffuser, which catches the uplight from an integrated LED light beam below. A conical end creates a warm spotlight for the fruit, while a circular base supports its slender body.
Founded in 1993 by Franco Cassina and Carlo Forcolini in Italy, Nemo was established to recreate the lighting pieces that best represented the "Golden Age" of Italian lighting design of the 1960s and 70s. Nemo acquired ItalianaLuce five years later, offering a line of clean, relaxed modern lighting that provided an informal counterpoint to the vintage mid-century authenticity found in Nemos modernist line of Franco Albini-designed lighting.
- Designed by Andrea Branzi
- Shade Material: Aluminum
- Foot Full Range Dimmer
- On/Off Socket Switch
- Switch Included
- CE Rated (Europe)
- Made In Italy
- 16 Watt (1150 Lumens) 120 Volt Integrated LED: CRI: 95 Color Temp: 2700K
Compare Brightness:
LumensThe amount of light that comes from a bulb, which has commonly been measured in watts. The more lumens, the brighter the bulb.
WattageA measurement of the power delivered to a component of an electric circuit (allowing a one-ampere current to flow through the component under the pressure of 1 volt.)
Bulb ShapeBulb shapes are denoted with a letter, which describes the shape, and a number, which indicates the size. The number indicates the diameter of the light bulb at its widest part in eighths of an inch.
BaseThe part of the bulb that connects to the fixture and its power supply. Bulb bases are denoted with the letter E, and a number which indicates the diameter of the bulb base at its widest part in millimeters.
VoltageIndicates how much voltage a bulb can accept via the fixture it's installed in.
Light Color TemperatureThe relative color from a light source, measured on the Kelvin temperature scale. Warm light is lower in color temperature (2700-3000 K) and cool, blue light is higher (5000 K).
Average Rated LifeThe average amount time that a bulb is expected to last.
CRICRI = color rendering index. This number, which can go from 0 to 100, measures the ability of a light or bulb accurately renders colors. The higher the number, the better, with most quality bulbs these days measuring at least in the 80s.

Hello Not 😀
It's good to smile isn't it ? Thanks for the congrats. Love your comment. Ralph xox ❤
(Hang on a sec I am trying to get my head around the new orange Notifier ! I never know where I am with it !)
Hi JF 😀
Yes, I know I am simple. Good enough reason to follow me without the other two you mention 😉 heehee !
Ralph 😀
Who are you, strange person who appeared in my reader? And, how did you get my photo with that short woman? Have we been introduced? Oh, no, was it at that party where I was doing Glayva shots? My mother warned me about that. I'm going on the wagon, I swear.
Oh, it's you Ralphie! Phew. If you post at midnight Sunday/Monday, I'll get your posts before you even write them, as I understand this theory of time relativity.
I'm so chuffed at you for collecting so many followers. You should run for president or something! Cheers, funny fellow. Keep on amusing us. oxo 🙂 ❤
PS I'm dead jealous of your photo-editing skills, clever bloke.
Hi Yvonne 😀
Yep ! I'm strange !
My dad always warned me about tall women. I've finally met one 😉
That's clever my friend getting this reply before I write it ! Shan't bovver ritin' it then as you'll get it anyway ! 😉
I have no photo editing skills, but I do manage to find websites that I can use to make up these funny pics.
Have a great day my friend. Ralph xox ❤
Hi ASL 😀
Wow ! That's really sweet of you to say. Thank you. Ralph xox ❤
Thanks Marcy 😀
Hi Indah 😀
Yay ! Party !
Hugs. Ralph xox ❤
Hi PN 😀
Thank you my friend. I love your humour too !
Ralph 😀
Hi Shey 😀
I'm sorry. I had to use Goggle Translate on your comment and it put up >>>
Shey has a hamster called Tink
Who covers her eyes just to think.
"I'm so out of here"
She squeaks in great fear
Every time she encounters a stink ! ……… Boom boom !
So you broke your rule my friend. I haven't, as there is a post of yours waiting at the end of 80+ emails. I'll leave you to sweat ! 😉 Hugs. Ralph xox ❤
Yay. Do another limerick. We sometimes used to play a round of that at Christmas. Just draw a place name out of a hat and then get five mins to concoct something. A good giggle after a few glassies of vino. .
Well, the 400 is a conservative estimate. That's only at one point in the day. I need to get the hammies to eat em but then they might eat yours.
There is a Scot's lady called Shey
Who writes about shenanigans in the hay.
Her posts are such fun.
But is kept on the run
By little hamsters who know how to play.
Fun, isn't it ?
Oh please let them eat my emails ……. not yours though ! 😀
Hello dear Nia 😀 You have been following me it seems forever. Thank you so much for being so loyal. I am happy that you are happy. Hugs. Ralph xox ❤
Not being featured on freshly pressed might be a good thing. They make some dubious choices. Last time I went there they had a blog featured where somebody wrote about watching a snuff video where a guy was brutally murdered solely for the purpose of making the video. The author of the blog seemed under the impression that everyone watches snuff videos. I was so disturbed by that I have not viewed anything on freshly pressed since. Who in their right mind would highlight such atrocities?
Hi LB 😀
Wow ! I didn't know that ! I thought Freshly Pressed was the best of the best selected by WP staff. I would be upset as well !
Ralph xox ❤
Hi Lottie 😀
I have been finding websites recently where I can make things up on them for my posts. I have a lot of fun creating new images etc.. I am not a photoshop wizard by any means !
Thanks for your usual great comment my friend, being spellbound and also being mine forever. Is that ALL ? lol.
Blooming cold here today but not indoors thank heavens !
Big hug. Ralph xox ❤
Hello Millie 😀
Thank you so much my friend for your praise and for finding a box to put my blog in. "Absoslutley" seems about right ! 😉 heehee !
Hugs. Ralph xox ❤
Hi dear Diahann 😀
Thank you so much for the congratulations. Without you following, this post would be non-existent 😉 Hugs. Ralph xox ❤
OK, Ralphie, Are you ADHD or are one of your recent medications laced with cocaine?!!! Where the hell do you get such energy, Little Buddy? Your mind is so brilliantly quick!!!! Do you ever sleep?!!!!! SERIOUSLY?! Do you??! 🙂 CONGRATULATIONS, you crazy, talented, beautiful man!!!! 🙂
Hello Elizabeth 😀
Of course you are my stalker. An evil one at that ! I am soooo privileged ! 😀 Big hug. Ralph xox ❤
Hello Lumar 😀
Wow ! Fantastic ! Thank you for your lovely comment. Hugs. Ralph xox ❤
Okay, now this is getting very troublesome. As you know, I am OCD and must read every single comment before I leave one of my own. And I spend the longest on your posts because of all YOUR FANS, Ralph. We obviously cannot get enough of your innovative, creative, adorable and hysterical humor! And also, I think I should start to follow Resa because I agree with her too! 😉
Hi dear Stephanie 😀
I had to look up OCD and found it's not OOTD 😉
Maybe I can help you. Perhaps if I publish a one line / one photo post once a year with no comments you'll be cured. Love Dr Ralph ❤ 😉
BUT ! Hey !That's not me !
I like to read all the comments on your and other bloggers' posts even if I don't comment myself and just Like. So thank you for wading through all these comments before you made me blush as well as Resa did 😀
Big Hug to you my friend. Ralph xox ❤

You are unique and entertaining. That's why 🙂
Hi Tracy 😀
You've got me blushing as well ! 😀
Ralph xox ❤
I wish to thank you for your kind interest and likes to my posts. You are such a very kind person; I enjoy seeing your little stars of approval, though I can sympathize that often my musing or ravings 😉 as they may be, are perhaps hard to follow. Thank you also for your patience.
Hello Mariana 😀
I do read your posts via Google Translate. I do hope the translation works and is not giving me a false account of your posts. It would be fun if you are talking about a walk you had and it's wrongly translated as you levitating in a Tibetan monastery 😉
Thanks for visiting and your lovely comment my friend.
Ralph xox ❤
I'm sure you get the gist… 🙂 I'm pleased and hope you find some resonance in what this vintage lady shares.
Wish you a wonderful Sunday, and many pleasant days ahead.

Hi Ralph, I love reading your blog. You bring laughs into my life. I have been catching up on your posts from back in October till now and I have been LMAO all afternoon. You bring joy to a lot of people through your blog. I love it. Thanks for being you. Take care and keeping on blogging.

Israeli tax official surprised hundreds of Lulav and Etrog vendors around the country on Monday when they began a secret operation to determine if the sellers were reporting their sales, providing receipts, and paying taxes on revenues from their booths.
Vendors report that they don't remember a raid like this ever happening before.
Lulav and Etrog sales are primarily a cash business, and they are sold by vendors, often teenagers, who set up tables and booths on streets throughout Israel before the Sukkot holiday. The business itself is more complicated with a group importers and distribution centers providing the majority of the temporary street vendors with their products.
Sukkot's Lulav and Etrog sales is a multi-millions dollar industry.

It's almost winter and I still have a pending brick moulding job I need to do. According to the weather forecast, the maximum temperature that I'll likely see in the coming few days is around 8 degrees Celsius. Questions:
- Should I worry about the brick moulding lumber warping in summer since I'm going to cut it based on its size in cold weather? It's finger-jointed tough wood.
- Should I worry about caulking not curing properly due to the cold?

UN Alliance to Support Climate Change Education, Training and Public Awareness Launched at COP 18
More than 250 delegates participated in the launch of the United Nations Alliance on Climate Change Education, Training and Public Awareness at a side-event on 3 December 2012 organized in the margins of the 18th Conference of the Parties (COP 18) to the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC). The event took place just after Parties agreed on Saturday night on the new Doha Work Programme on Article 6 of the Convention which deals with education, training and public awareness. Founding members of the Alliance include: the Food and Agriculture Organization of the UN (FAO), the UN Environment Programme (UNEP), the UN Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO), the UNFCCC Secretariat, the UN Children's Fund (UNICEF), the UN Institute for Training and Research (UNITAR) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), with the UNFCCC Secretariat providing the Secretariat for the Alliance.
In this opening remarks, Mr. Daniele Violetti, Chief of Staff, UNFCCC Secretariat congratulated Parties to the successful agreement on the new work programme. He highlighted that the UN Alliance was aiming to provide a framework for coordinated support for Article 6 implementation building on existing initiatives and collaborations. Mr. Tomasz Chruszczow, Chair of the Subsidiary Body for Implementation (SBI), emphasized that after the Bonn Climate Change Conference, May 2012 many had doubts if the Work Programme would be decided upon in 2012. He pointed out: "We have proved that use of modern media and willingness to corporate can deliver results."
European Union (EU) highlighted that the EU was committed to Article 6 implementation and was earmarking part of its climate change funds for Article 6 implementation. He also thanked the Dominican Republic which played a key role in advancing the new Doha Work Programme for organizing an online Inter-sessional Consultation Platform which was developed in cooperation with the UNFCCC Secretariat making use of the UN CC:Learn Platform.The opening remarks were followed by statements from Parties who welcomed the UN Alliance and highlighted examples of existing cooperation with UN partners in the area of climate change learning. Mr. Tony Carritt, Information and Communications Officer,
National Council for Climate Change and Clean Development Mechanism (CNCCMDL), indicated that Article 6 is of utmost importance for the country. Given this priority the country has supported also regional action in this area and actively supported the negotiation process. He also informed participants that the Vice-President of the Dominican Republic launched in August 2012 the National Strategy to Strengthen Human Resources and Skills to Advance Green, Low Emission and Climate Resilient Development. He thanked UN CC:Learn Partners and UNITAR - the host agency of UN CC:Learn- as well as the Swiss Government for supporting the development and initial action to implement the Strategy.H.E. Mr. Omar Ramírez Tejada, Secretary of State and Executive Vice President of the
Mr. Anton Hilber, Co-Director of the Global Programme on Climate Change (GPCC), Swiss Development Cooperation (SDC), highlighted that Switzerland is fully supportive of scaling up Article 6 related action at the international and national levels. In this context, the Swiss Government was pleased to support UN CC:Learn, a UN initiative in the area of climate change learning that brings together 33 multi-lateral organizations and 5 pilot countries, including Benin, the Dominican Republic, Indonesia, Malawi and Uganda. The constellation of country-driven processes involving key sectors and stakeholders, coupled with a One UN approach supported by a small Secretariat based at UNITAR in Geneva, made UN CC:Learn an appealing initiative for SDC. He also expressed his hope that given the request from many countries to participate in UN CC:Learn, other development partners can consider providing support for country projects in 2013.
H.E. Ms. Flavia Nabugere Munabaa, Minister of State of Environment, Uganda highlighted that the country was finalizing its National Strategy to Strengthen Human Resources and Skills to Advance Green, Low Emission and Climate Resilient Development which was expected to be launched in early 2013. She also called upon national and international partners to provide the financial means for developing countries to advance Article 6 implementation. The Minister further highlighted that climate change communication, awareness-raising and education needs to use means that are appropriate at the local level in an African context.
H.E. Ms. Fatou Gaye, Minister of Forestry and the Environment of The Gambia, indicated that "Article 6 is the only Article of the Convention that has dedicated national focal points. We should take its implementation very seriously." The Minister referred to CC:iNet as an important knowledge-sharing portal which countries should contribute to and utilize. She also expressed her hope that in selecting additional UN CC:Learn countries, country applications received for the pilot phase can be taken into account.
The Party statements were followed by pledges for support by representatives of the founding members of the Alliance including Ms. Alla Metelitsa, Team Leader, Capacity Building and Outreach, UNFCCC Secretariat; Mr. Nick Nuttall, Spokesperson/Head of Media, UNEP; Ms. Wendy Watson-Wright, UNESCO Assistant Director General and UNESCO/IOC Executive Secretary; Mr. Achim Halpaap, Associate Director, Training Department and Head of Environment Unit, UNITAR; Mr. Michael Williams, Chief, Communications and Public Affairs, WMO; Mr. Sessa Reuben, Environment Officer, FAO; and Ms. Jazmin Burgess, International Policy and Research Officer, UNICEF.
Participants were invited to share their views on the Alliance's draft framework for action and contribute to its further development. The discussions highlighted a number of issues including: the importance of involving National Focal Points for Article 6 of the Convention as well as youth representatives in the work of the Alliance; the need to focus on implementation, including grassroots levels; and the ultimate objective of fostering behavioral change. Representatives from two UN CC:Learn pilot countries, Indonesia and Malawi, took the floor to inform participants about the status of the National Strategy development and thanked the Swiss Development Cooperation for their support.
The mission of the United Nations Alliance on Climate Change Education, Training and Public Awareness is to promote meaningful, result-oriented and effective international cooperation in support of the implementation of the work programme on Article 6 of the UNFCCC.

FAA says Boeing can fly Dreamliners to test batteries
WASHINGTON — Federal transportation officials approved test flights Thursday for Boeing's 787 Dreamliner, as part of the effort to figure out why batteries failed on two of the innovative planes that have been grounded for weeks.
Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood and Michael Huerta, head of the Federal Aviation Administration, jointly announced the approval, saying the flights would be subject to extensive pre-flight testing and would occur over unpopulated areas.
The precautions include inspecting batteries and cables to ensure there is no damage, continuously monitoring batteries during the flights and flying only with essential crew.
"These test flights will be an important part of our efforts to ensure the safety of passengers and return these aircraft to service," the statement said.
Boeing said the test flights would begin "soon" and that the company considers the flights "safe." The company said hundreds of experts are working around the clock to resolve the battery problem and get the plane back in the air.
"We are working this issue tirelessly in cooperation with our customers and the appropriate regulatory and investigative authorities," spokeswoman Kate Bergman said in a statement.
The special permission for test flights came the same day as a special 787 flight from a painting facility in Texas to Washington state.
In addition, safety investigators announced that they found the origin of the short-circuit in the lithium-ion battery that caught fire aboard a Boeing 787 Dreamliner, but not yet the cause.
Deborah Hersman, head of the National Transportation Safety Board, said the Federal Aviation Administration should reconsider the special permission it gave Boeing in 2007 to use the unique battery aboard the plane.
When Boeing certified the plane, it projected from sometimes abusive testing that the batteries were expected to smoke once in every 10 million miles of flying, Hersman said. But after two battery problems in the first 100,000 hours of flying, she says nine special conditions that the FAA set on Boeing to use lithium batteries in the plane need to be reconsidered.
ASK THE CAPTAIN: Is the Boeing Dreamliner safe?
ALSO ONLINE: 787 grounded, but batteries can fly
"The assumptions used to certify the battery must be reconsidered," Hersman says. "We know that some of the assumptions that were made to make sure they didn't have a smoke event were not met, much less a fire event."
FAA Administrator Michael Huerta announced a full review of the plane's manufacture and design on Jan. 11, just after the battery fire on a Japan Airlines 787 parked in Boston.
Huerta and Transportation Secretary Ray LaHood issued a joint statement Thursday saying that the agency must complete its comprehensive review of the 787 before deciding what changes or improvements to make.
"The leading experts in this field are working to understand what happened and how we can safely get these aircraft back into service," the statement said. "As the agency said last month, the FAA is focused on the review and activities to understand the root cause. Once the review is complete, the FAA will make any analysis and conclusions public."
Boeing shares traded higher on the news, closing up 1.5% to $77.43.
On Jan. 16, the FAA and other regulators around the world grounded the 50-plane fleet after an All Nippon Airways 787 made an emergency landing in Japan because of a smoldering battery.
In pinpointing the origin of the Boston fire, Hersman said the short-circuit in one of eight cells in the battery led to a chemical reaction called a "thermal runaway" that sparked the fire.
Investigators are now looking at the charge going to the battery, the manufacturing including any possible contamination and the design such as how tightly packed the cells are.
"A short-circuit did occur, it resulted in cell-to-cell propagation in a cascading manner and a fire," Hersman said.
Hersman said the safety board will issue a factual report in 30 days but that it might not reach conclusions about what caused the fire.
"I don't expect that to be reaching a conclusion for the investigation," Hersman said.
She couldn't yet draw any comparisons between the batteries that failed in Boston and Japan, or whether they failed in the same way.

The grounding is expected to last weeks longer for passengers. United Airlines, the only U.S. airline to have the Dreamliner, said Wednesday that it has replaced its six 787s with other planes through the end of February.
All Nippon Airways on Wednesday canceled its 787 flights through March 30.
The batteries were used because they are lighter and recharge more quickly than other types of batteries and contribute to the plane being 20% more fuel efficient than its rivals.

Washington D.C., Jan 23, 2012 / 11:14 am MT ().-
Cardinal Daniel N. DiNardo of Galveston-Houston told over a thousand young people at a prayer vigil in D.C. that the pro-life movement depends on their loving witness in the face of a hostile culture.
"You are a good infection," the cardinal told the youth gathered at the opening Mass for the National Prayer Vigil for Life. "Do not underestimate your presence."
More than 10,000 people gathered on the evening of Jan. 22 for Mass at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception, including many young people from across the country.
The date marked the 39th anniversary of the Roe v. Wade Supreme Court decision that legalized abortion in America.
Cardinal DiNardo, who serves as chairman of the U.S. bishops' Committee on Pro-Life Activities, was the principal celebrant and homilist at the opening Mass, which was followed by confessions, a rosary, Night Prayer and holy hours throughout the night.
The Catholic University of America hosted almost 1,300 pilgrims overnight.
The vigil concluded on the morning of Jan. 23 with Morning Prayer and a closing Mass, at which Cardinal-designate Timothy Dolan of New York was the principal celebrant and homilist.
Participants were then able to attend the March for Life in downtown D.C., along Constitution Avenue to the Supreme Court building.
In his homily, Cardinal DiNardo spoke about the call of Jonah. Although he first ran away, Jonah eventually realized "that the call of the Lord is serious." When he finally responded to that call, his preaching converted the people of Ninevah.
"We are walking through Ninevah," the cardinal said, emphasizing the need for "personal conversion."
With millions of lives destroyed by abortion in the last 39 years, he noted the need for ministries of conversion, as well as compassion and mercy.
Through the work of such ministries, he said, "we witness the miracle of Christ's mercy and healing grace" as broken hearts are "made whole" and "filled with new peace and hope."
The cardinal also expressed grave concerns that the pro-life movement is threatened by recent attacks on religious freedom in America.
On Jan. 20, the Department of Health and Human Services finalized a rule that will require virtually all health insurance plans to include sterilization and contraception – including drugs that cause abortion – free of charge.
Cardinal DiNardo explained that this mandate violates the religious liberty and rights of conscience of Catholics and other religious employers by forcing citizens "to directly purchase what violates our beliefs."
He called for "timely and unwavering actions" to defend religious freedom.
At the same time, the cardinal expressed hope for the future, observing signs of good news, such as the "record numbers" of pro-life laws passed on the state level in recent years.
In many ways, the youth are "weaving Christ into our culture," he said, urging them to show the loving face of Christ to those who are hostile.
"Don't be compromised in your dedication to the protection of life."

To keep one's plans, intentions, or tactics secret from everyone else. Refers to holding one's playing cards close to one's chest in a card game, so as not to allow other players to see one's hand. We're all curious about what the boss has been discussing in those meetings with the lawyers, but she's keeping it close to her chest. Sorry for not being more straightforward about my plans, but I'm keeping this one close to the chest for the time being.

Fulham's Barclays Premier League home clash with Liverpool will go ahead as planned on Wednesday night after unions suspended a strike on the London Underground.
Just minutes prior to the announcement by the RMT union that it was joining the TSSA in suspending a planned 48-hour strike, Cottagers boss Rene Meulensteen expressed his confidence that the game would go ahead regardless.
The Fulham boss said the potential tube cessation had not affected his side's preparation for their league showdown with Brendan Rodgers' Anfield outfit.
"As far as I am concerned the game will go ahead," said Meulensteen.
"It has not been too much of a concern to us, it's not something we could allow to affect us."
Fulham had planned to delay a decision on staging their Liverpool clash until later on Tuesday afternoon.
Members of the RMT and TSSA unions were due to walk out at 9pm on Tuesday night following a two-day stoppage last week which caused travel chaos in the capital.
RMT general secretary Bob Crow said unions had received proposals that halted implementation of job cuts, so that discussions can be held "away from the pressure cooker".
The unions are campaigning against controversial plans to close all 260 Tube ticket offices with the loss of 950 jobs.
Liverpool owner John W Henry waded into the row over Fulham delaying their decision on whether to postpone the match due to transport concerns with a tweet on Tuesday morning.
Henry tweeted: "Arsenal, West Ham and Leyton Orient all ready for the strike but not Fulham?"
Fulham put their waiting game purely down to prudence to ascertain whether all support staff could travel to the match to ensure supporter safety.

Thank God there's no ceiling on tacky -- otherwise, we might never have the opportunity to buy a pair of 'pajama jeans' for the fashionably clueless men in our lives!
And in my opinion, with their "rips" and creative shading, these are even better than the real thing!
Even better, they're only $12.95 at Lakeside.com!
But if you think these are laughable, wait until you see the other version for men that's available.
You won't BELIEVE this pair ...
Ladies, check THESE out:
No, those are not separate boxers peeping out from beneath this man's pajama jeans -- THEY ARE PART OF HIS PAJAMA JEANS! It's an optical illusion!! HA HA HA HA HA HA HA.
(Razor and oil for your man's chest not included.)
I'm tempted to get these pants for my husband as a joke, but I won't because I know he'd totally wear them -- out in public and everything! Hubs's theory is that if it doesn't have x-rated holes in it, it should be worn until it can't be worn anymore, no matter how tacky it is.
At any rate, these truly tacky "knit jeans" are so popular that Lakeside has sold out of both versions -- but keep your eye on the site, because my guess is that they'll be back soon.
Feeling a little jealous? Not to worry ...
There's a $12.95 pair of "women's boyfriend jean lounge pants" for you, too!
Would you let your man wear pajama jeans?

Charles Schwab & Co.'s chief investment strategist, Liz Ann Sonders, gave a generally positive address Sunday evening to Schwab Advisor Services' assembled advisors on the U.S. economy and markets.
She jokingly bristled over those who call her a "perma-bull," though she admitted to having been generally bullish "since 2009." Following Potomac Research strategist Greg Valliere's politically focused speech at Schwab Impact 2013's preconference session in Washington, Sonders delivered her assessment that "the market is quite cheap," and that its outperformance last year and this one was "primarily because of corporate earnings" rather than the consensus view that the Fed's quantitative easing was the prime driver of strong market performance.
Looking at the economy now, she said that the third-quarter GDP report was "better than expected," noting in particular that consumer spending's share of GDP fell in the quarter to 68% from the 71% reported in the second quarter. However, she also said that the government's share of GDP remained stubbornly high, and that "government spending still needs to be deleveraged."
She also argued that in assessing any economy's growth pattern, the most important measure was not so much the level of growth as it was the trajectory of that growth. She then presented a chart that showed that in 2013, the growth trajectory for the U.S., Japan and the eurozone was significantly improving, while deceleration was just as clearly evident for the BRIC subsegment of the emerging markets: Brazil, Russia, India and China.
Echoing Valliere's earlier speech, she agreed that while Janet Yellen, who faces hearings on her nomination as Federal Reserve chairwoman on Nov. 14, is "dovish," "she's no pushover" — if consensus can't be found among the FOMC members, "she may step in and decide herself." In an interview on Monday, Sonders elaborated on how Yellen might perform as Fed chair. While she prefaced her remarks by saying her insights came from those who knew Yellen, not from direct knowledge, she said while the Fed nominee is a consenus builder, she may not let the consensus-building process go on as long as Ben Bernanke was wont to do. "She may make a decision faster," Sonders said, and while she won't "necessarily be Greenspanish" in making a decision without a broad consensus within the Fed, that willingness to decide may well "offset her dovishness."
Again agreeing with Valliere, Sonders said that she did not expect tapering by the Fed of its Treasury purchases "to start until the beginning of next year."
She then listed four main signs of economic optimism for the U.S.
The first is the nation's improvement in surveys that assess the "ease of doing business" in a specific country. The U.S. has risen to fourth place in those surveys, while China is mired in the high 90s. The second cause for optimism is that the total cost gap, and the labor gap, is "significantly narrowing" between the U.S. and its emerging-market competitors.
The third cause for optimism is that by 2015, the U.S. will have an export cost advantage of some 5% to 25% over many of its major trading partners, including the U.K. and Germany.
Finally, she sees hope in U.S. manufacturing prowess, noting that manufacturing as a share of total GDP is growing. In Monday's interview, she pointed out that manufacturing still accounts for a fairly small percentage of U.S. GDP, about 13%, but that she has been following the trend of manufacturing returning to the U.S. for years, supported by a series of research pieces on the subject from the Boston Consulting Group.
All those signs, she said, suggest a "new U.S. secular bull market relative to the emerging markets," leading toward a "multiyear period when the U.S." regains advantages over EM countries.
That doesn't mean that she doesn't see areas of concern. In addition to the need to bring down government spending as a percentage of GDP, she expressed concern over the "short-term frothiness on confidence," which "could suggest a "short-term pullback" in the stock market, though she said such a correction "could be healthy." Why would a stock market correction be healthy? In the interview, she said that corrections "keep euphoria in check," and "allow for the slow grind forward" which sustains a bull market. "Booms don't tend to end well," she said.
The resurgence in U.S. manufacturing will face some headwinds by a lack of skilled workers for factories, but she called that a "fixable problem," noting that not only institutions of higher education but companies themselves are devoting significant resources to vocational education programs with a "total focus on skills."
Finally, while she said she saw some signs that banks were beginning to show more eagerness to lend money, she remains worried about the "big gap" between the level of bank deposits, which have been "soaring, thanks to the Fed," and the low level of bank loans, which have remained flat at best while deposits have sharply increased.

SUNY Canton Students Spread Holiday Cheer Through Fundraising EventsWednesday, December 11th, 2013
Two SUNY Canton student clubs are spending the holiday season raising money and collecting donations for kids being cared for at local hospitals, as well as homeless animals at area shelters.
Gifts for Children
The president of SUNY Canton's Powersports Performance and Repair student club has a personal interest in giving hospitalized children a special gift during the holiday season.
"I remember how good I felt when I got a present when I was a neurology patient as a child," said Vernon "Chase" Thompson of Felts Mills. "I've always tried to collect toys for children in hospitals no matter where I've been during my life."
The Powersports club collected approximately $800 in toys and donations to purchase toys. The students delivered the stuffed animals, dolls and other new children's toys on Tuesday (Dec. 10) to Massena Memorial Hospital and Canton-Potsdam Hospital.
Neil A. Haney, an instructional support associate in the program said that Excessive Adrenaline, a local motorcycle club made a substantial donation to their toy drive efforts. "I'd also like to especially thank Robert Morley and Steven Davis who both contributed substantially to our project," he said.
Gifts for Animals
Student members of the SUNY Canton Veterinary Technician Association collected donations and supplies for the Potsdam Humane Society and the North Country Animal Shelter.
"Our students have a deep concern and love for animals," said Robin I. Gittings, L.V.T, an instructional support technician in the Veterinary Science Technology program and the association's adviser. "They eagerly took on the challenge to collect donations for the shelters we work with on a regular basis. These organizations are always in need of assistance due to tight budgets."
Organizer Katlyn D. Podwirny, a Veterinary Technology major from Lake Luzerne, said the association collected dog and cat toys, food, treats and bowls, as well as cleaning supplies and blankets. Monetary donations totaled more than $300 and will be used to purchase other items on the shelters' wish lists.
"I am overwhelmed by the amount of donations we received," Podwirny said. "It far exceeded my expectations."

Our literary candles are perfect for any book and candle lover. The candles were inspired by my love of libraries, books and bookstores, and the stories that take us on each adventure. A candle is the perfect thing to snuggle up and get lost into the pages of a book with.
'The Writer' is inspired by the click clack on a typewriter as words are being poured onto paper giving life to thoughts and ideas. It is an earthy aroma with amber, balsam and spices.
"There is nothing to writing. All you do is sit down at a typewriter and open a vein." -Ernest Hemingway
Our hand poured candles have a special soy wax blend which ensures that the scent will last the entire burn. By using soy wax we are giving you a better candle and using a sustainable and renewable resource that is made in the USA. We use natural cotton wicks in all our soy candles as well.
Our luxury soy candles are 3.5 inches and have an approximate burn time of 50 hours. Each 9oz candle comes with a black screw top metal lid, which is great to keep dust out when not in use and prolong the scent. The jar can also be washed and used over and over again.
We ship USPS primarily because of the low cost and efficiency. If you prefer UPS or FedEx, please contact us for a quote.
Just a reminder, when buying several items the shipping charges can add up fast, but many times beyond what the actual shipping charges would be. Don't worry...WE REFUND ALL SHIPPING OVERAGES!

Monday, 25 June 2012 08:10 AM
The decision, coming little more than four months before the November election, will mark the first time the court has ruled on a president's signature legislative accomplishment in the middle of his re-election bid.
Here's what to expect and look for in the ruling:
Will the court rule today?
It might, though a decision later in the week is at least as likely. The court has five decisions left to issue, including on an Arizona law cracking down on illegal immigration, and the justices will present them over two or perhaps three days. Based on past practice, the most likely second opinion day is Thursday, June 28. We'll know more after the court makes its rulings today.
How does the court release its rulings?
It announces the opinions from the bench beginning at 10 a.m., Washington time. As soon as Chief Justice John Roberts says an opinion is about to be issued, court employees begin handing out copies to reporters. That means the first word of the health-care decision will probably come from news reports. As with arguments, the court doesn't permit video or live audio coverage of its opinion announcements. The court will post a copy of the decision on its website soon after it is issued.
The people in the courtroom may be among the last to know the outcome. The justice who wrote the opinion will give a summary -- and may not say immediately what the bottom line is.
Might the news of the decision leak out before it's issued?
Leaks of any sort are rare at the court and leaks about pending decisions are all but nonexistent. The justices demand -- and get -- secrecy from their law clerks and the few court employees who know about rulings in advance.
What are the possibilities?
There are a variety of ways the court could rule:
(1) It could uphold the entire statute, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act.
(2) The court could strike down part of the law. This could take several forms. It might invalidate only the requirement that most Americans get insurance or face penalties, the so- called individual mandate that was once championed by Republicans as an alternative to Democratic proposals for a single government-run health system.
More likely, based on the arguments in late-March, they would also reject related provisions that require insurers to cover people with pre-existing medical conditions and charge them the same rates as other policyholders. The administration as well as those challenging the law agree that rejecting the mandate while keeping the related provisions would create a situation in which only patients with costly health issues would obtain insurance. That would lead to higher premiums, which would prompt healthy policyholders to drop coverage, causing more rate increases.
The court might also invalidate the law's expansion of the Medicaid program for the poor, which is intended to provide coverage to about 16 million uninsured people.
(3) The court could strike down the entire law.
(4) It could decide that the challenge to the insurance requirement by a group of 26 states and a small-business trade organization is premature and must wait until the penalties for failure to obtain insurance are actually imposed after the mandate goes into effect in 2014.
Which justices are the likely swing votes?
Based on the arguments in March, the pivotal votes belong to Roberts and Justice Anthony Kennedy, two of the five Republican appointees on the nine-member court. During the two- hour session during the arguments on the insurance mandate, both aimed the bulk of their questions at the lawyer representing the Obama administration. At the same time, they left their likely votes in doubt by similarly directing questions toward the challengers to the law.
What are the central legal issues?
The fate of the insurance requirement will turn on the court's interpretation of three parts of the Constitution. The first is the commerce clause, which says Congress may "regulate commerce with foreign nations and among the several states." The court has relied on the commerce clause to uphold laws such as the 1964 Civil Rights Act.
The court previously has extended the reach of the commerce power through the necessary-and-proper clause. That provision says Congress may "make all laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into execution" its enumerated powers.
Congress also has power under the Constitution to "lay and collect taxes, duties, imposts and excises." The Obama administration says the tax clause provides a second, independent constitutional basis for the law.
The Medicaid issue centers on the Constitution's spending clause, which authorizes Congress "to pay the debts and provide for the common defence and general welfare of the United States." The Supreme Court has said that provision lets Congress put conditions on federal funds. The states say they are being unlawfully coerced.
The court also will say whether a law known as the Anti- Injunction Act makes much of the case premature. That law says that taxes can't be challenged until they're assessed.
What did the lower courts say?
They were divided. Of the four federal appeals courts to rule, two upheld the law, one declared the insurance mandate unconstitutional and the fourth said the Anti-Injunction Act made a court review premature.
Has there been a similar case so close to an election?
The closest parallel comes from 1935 and 1936, when a series of high court rulings voided parts of President Franklin Roosevelt's New Deal, economic programs designed to respond to the Great Depression.
When was the last time a Supreme Court ruling was so eagerly anticipated?
It was Dec. 12, 2000, the day the Supreme Court decided Bush v. Gore and sealed the presidential election for George W. Bush. As with health care, reporters crammed the court's press room, rows of cameras stood outside and the country sat by the television awaiting the news.
One difference: The justices didn't take the bench that day to announce their ruling. At about 10 p.m. Washington time, court employees simply handed out the opinion, and history was made.
