A group of African-American pastors say that President Barack Obama's backing of gay marriage may cost him the election due to weakening support among black voters -- although he still has overwhelming support from them.
Rev. William Owens, head of the Coalition of African-American Pastors, a group of black Christians backing traditional family values, said Obama has taken the black vote for granted.
"He has not done a smart thing and it might cost him the election," Owens said during a press conference Tuesday at the National Press Club in Washington. "There are more people that want marriage to be right than there are homosexuals."
Although Owens declared that "we are not Democrats, we are not Republicans, this is not a political party," Owens criticized the president for not denouncing gay marriage. He said the press conference was held to promote the group's Mandate for Marriage, a pledge to support marriage between one man and one woman – what Owens says will be a national campaign aimed at rallying black Americans to rethink their support of the president.
Obama won 95 percent of the black vote in 2008, and while enthusiasm among some Obama supporters has faded since then, support for America's first black president remains high among African Americans. In a recent Associated Press-GfK poll, 82 percent of black registered voters say they would vote for Obama. His approval rating among blacks was 87 percent.
The group's press conference was held just one day after Rep. Barney Frank confirmed that the Democratic Party is set to include a pro-gay marriage plank in their party-convention platform. The platform, approved unanimously on Sunday, not only backs marriage equality, but also rejects DOMA and has positive language with regard to the Employment Non-Discrimination Act. The move wasn't a complete surprise, considering Obama's public endorsement of same-sex marriage in May.

Owens, who said he supported Obama in 2008, said that the president "has ignored the black community because he thinks we are in his pocket because he's black. We refuse to give him a pass."
At the press conference, Owens was joined by five other black pastors and said there were 3,742 African-American pastors on board for the anti-Obama campaign. Owens has long been an opponent of gay marriage and consults with the National Organization for Marriage as a liaison to black churches.
Survey: Partisan divide over gay marriage widens
Later in his speech, he denounced the administration's priorities.
"With all the challenges facing the African-American community – the prisons are full of African-American men – they have chosen to cater to the homosexual community," Owens said. "They have chosen to cater to Hollywood, to cater to big money, and to ignore the people who put the president where he is."
Supreme Court asked to back gay marriage ban
A Pew Research Center poll conducted in April found that 49 percent of African-Americans oppose legalized same-sex marriage, compared with 39 percent who support it. In 2008, only 26 percent of blacks were in favor of same-sex marriage, according to the same Pew poll.
In a Public Religion Research Institute poll released last week, 18 percent of black Americans surveyed said they see same-sex marriage as a "critical issue," putting it behind the economy, education, deficit, a growing wealth gap and immigration.

Owens, however, said the president's stance on gay marriage will be a much more decisive issue for his organization come Election Day.
"The president is in the White House because of the Civil Rights movement," said Owens. "I didn't march one inch, one foot, one yard for a man to marry a man and a woman to marry a woman. We will not take it back, we will not back down, and we are going to take action across this country."

2019 Japanese CD reissue.
Augmenting his rhythm section of bassist Richard Davis and drummer Elvin Jones with vibraphonist Bobby Hutcherson, pianist Andrew Hill records an excellent set of subdued but adventurous post-bop with Judgment. Without any horns, the mood of the session is calmer than Black Fire, but Hill's compositions take more risks than before. Close listening reveals how he subverts hard bop structure and brings in rhythmic and harmonic elements from modal jazz and the avant-garde.
The harmonic structure on each composition is quite complex, fluctuating between dissonant chords and nimble, melodic improvisations. Naturally, Hill's playing shines in this self-created context, but Hutcherson equals the pianist with his complex, provocative solos and unexpected melodic juxtapositions. Jones shifts the rhythms with style, and his solos are exceptionally musical, as is Davis' fluid bass. The combination of the band's intricate interplay and the stimulating compositions make Judgment another important release from Hill. It may require careful listening, but the results are worth it.

Series introduction, by Daphne Bramham:
Everyone has a story, especially here.
Vancouver's history is studded with characters and now, more than ever, it is a magnet for every kind of person from every part of the world.
Yet as the city and surrounding communities have grown into Metro, there's a deep sense of isolation.
People live in silos, separated by race, culture, language, income, age and even geography.
We don't know each other. We don't speak to neighbours, strike up conversations on the bus and grocery checkout lines or make an effort to make newcomers feel welcome.
Yet, there was an overwhelming yearning for connection and understanding among the nearly 3,900 people surveyed by the Vancouver Foundation.
So, who are we, anyway?
Over the summer for 12 Saturdays, I'll profile a few of the people who live here.
Some, like Ada Luk (profiled today), are well-known within a segment of the community and virtually unknown outside it. Some are better known outside Metro than they are here. Still others do odd or obscure jobs.
But, all of them are interesting.
Ada Luk rarely goes out without being recognized. She's the anchor of British Columbia's most-watched Chinese television newscast, a reporter and the host of a documentary program called M26.
Invariably people approach her, often with such familiarity that Luk does a mental check to try to figure out whether she does actually know them.
"They see me as a friend," she says. "It's very rewarding."
Luk's job at Fairchild Television differs little from that of her colleagues in other media. Although she works primarily in her mother tongue, Cantonese, Luk frequently does interviews in English. Recently, she's done one-on-one interviews with Prime Minister Stephen Harper and Premier Christy Clark. Those interviews were aired with Chinese subtitles and voice-overs.
But unlike some television news anchors, Luk also does daily reporting and works on documentaries.
Her investigative work has resulted in five nominations and two wins at the Jack Webster Awards for outstanding journalism. One of her winning stories focused on the world after 9/11. The other story was about Cheryl Hutchinson, who has cerebral palsy and successfully sued the government for the right to pay her father to be her caregiver. Up until Hutchinson's lawsuit, relatives could not be paid — only strangers.
"I've been amazed by her courage. She finished a degree at UBC and she had the courage to fight our government and she won."
The other work Luk mentions proudly is her series on the rehabilitation of Chinese-Canadian inmates in the correctional system. The Canadian system, which focuses on reform, is fundamentally different from the punishment-based penal systems that most Chinese immigrants are used to. What Luk set out to do was to show how the system works and what it means to the individuals who are given a second chance.
She views her role more broadly than most journalists. Luk believes both she and Fairchild TV have important roles to play in helping new immigrants integrate and helping immigrants' children learn their parents' mother tongue. But that's not all.
"Our existence helps to bring out the voice of our community in the broader society."
Arrival and adjustment
Luk recalls her nervous arrival in 1991 at Vancouver International Airport after the long flight from Hong Kong with her family. They'd never been here before.
"I wasn't sure what would happen next," she says. "I already missed my grandparents and my other relatives in Hong Kong and I didn't know how I was going to settle down here. My parents were not too good in English, but they were planning to set up a business. How they'd do that, they weren't sure because they didn't know much about how it was done here."
Among the many changes after choosing to settle in Richmond was renaming. Luk Siu Man became Ada.
"My mother chose it. It was the first one in the dictionary [of names]."
Luk was one of many English-as-a-second-language students in Grade 9 that year. She found it difficult, but did well enough that by Grade 10 she was in the mainstream.
Her parents, meanwhile, decided to start D'Fresh Bakery in Richmond. They later expanded to three other stores, but have since cut back to two: the original one in the Empire Centre and another in Burnaby's Crystal Mall. Luk helped out for the first few months when the family business was starting. But soon, her mother insisted she concentrate on her studies. That said, Luk describes herself as an indifferent student, even during her four years at UBC, where she studied psychology and economics.
"I hadn't even thought of journalism. But one of my school friends was working part-time at [Chinese-language newspaper] Tsing Tao. Every day, she was telling me how interesting it was and who she'd interviewed that day. So, I was kind of thinking that maybe I'd like to be a journalist or a reporter."
Soon after her final exam, Luk saw Fairchild TV's ad for reporters. Her father encouraged her. He'd toyed with the idea of journalism in his youth and has always stayed on top of news and current affairs. Luk got the job.
"I just love it. It's hard to explain the magic of this profession that turns someone like me with no direction into someone who is really dedicated."
Speaking with her one-on-one, there's a visible and audible difference between Luk, the private person, and Luk, the television anchor. It's something even she finds a bit surprising.
"I have a different personality. Normally, I'm a very dependent girl, but as a reporter I have to be tough."
Luk works long hours and, even when she's not officially on the job, she's often thinking about stories. Despite the busy work schedule of reporting, documentary work and anchoring the news, Luk says going beyond just being a news presenter is important, not only for her, but also for her colleagues who do the Mandarin broadcast.
"It helps us stay on top of stories and current affairs. It means I'm not just the information messenger," she says. "It's hard to leave the work behind. It's easier when you're doing daily news. But for the documentaries, my mother is always asking me, 'Are you thinking about something at work?'
"But documentaries are non-stop projects ... Every documentary story is like I'm raising a baby. Every time, I feel like it's a new achievement because I'm learning new stuff and I'm meeting new people. I love that process of putting the story together."
It takes a toll on her personal life; Luk isn't married. "That's a trade-off. As a reporter, I'm always working 24/7 and my boyfriend is always complaining that I work too much. But he sort of understands. He used to work here as a graphic designer."
Now in her 30s, Luk barely looks old enough to be out of high school and requires only a skiff of makeup to get ready to deliver the news. But she works in a medium that places a high value on youth and beauty, whether the TV station is in Hong Kong, Singapore, Los Angeles or Vancouver.
"They love to put young ladies on camera. It's also one of the challenges if you want to keep the younger generation loyal to your television newscast."
Gaining or maintaining younger audiences is difficult enough for mainstream media in North America, as most are getting their news from other sources, particularly online. For Fairchild's Cantonese channel, it's even harder. Immigration from Hong Kong has slowed to a trickle — only 253 people came in 2010. With fewer Cantonese speakers immigrating, it means fewer — if any — Cantonese-speaking kids arriving. The children who are born here to immigrant parents may speak Cantonese at home, but they speak English at school and are surrounded by it in the broader community.
Luk says many of the younger Chinese-Canadians are watching her newscast at their parents' insistence as part of their language training.
"I'm not only a news anchor, I'm a Chinese teacher," she says, noting she chooses her on-air words carefully and stays away from complicated phrasing.
With fewer immigrants, the adult audience is also changing. Viewers have been here longer and are better integrated. It doesn't mean Fairchild will abandon its mandate to ease settlement. Luk says it means viewers now are demanding, and receiving, more complicated and nuanced stories — particularly about politics.
Might there come a time when the station will use more English and less Cantonese?
"No, we would lose our purpose if we did that. We still have to serve those new immigrants and those who prefer to watch in their first language. We have to find a balance, but we can't lose our identity."
Shifting trends
In 1991, Metro Vancouver already had a substantial Chinese community. But immigration from Hong Kong in advance of the colony's 1997 return to Chinese control was picking up, peaking in 1994 when 15,384 immigrants arrived. In the decade leading up to the handover, more than 96,000 people left Hong Kong and came to Vancouver.
While immigration from Hong Kong has slowed, immigration from Mainland China and Taiwan remains strong. Since 1997, more than 121,300 Mainland Chinese have arrived and nearly 35,700 people have come from Taiwan.
They mainly speak Mandarin, which is why Fairchild also has news and current affairs programs in that language. They compete for viewers with eight Chinese-government television stations broadcast on cable, three Taiwanese cable stations as well as Global TV's national news in Mandarin, available on Shaw cable.
Over the years, several of Luk's colleagues have moved back to Hong Kong and have thrived in the media there. She thought about it, but it's not for her.
"I've made my final decision to stay here. If I went to Hong Kong, I would be working for a Chinese outlet. Here, what's unique is that I work at a Chinese television station and I have my own mission," she says.
So what's the next step in her career? Luk pauses for a long time.
She reiterates her passion for what she does now.
Finally, she says, "Not management. Definitely not management."
By the numbers:
• Fairchild Television has a current subscription of 370,000 households and an estimated 1.48 million viewers nationwide. It reaches more than half the Chinese population in Canada weekly.
• In 2011, there were 70,400 people working in information, culture and recreation — the sector that encompasses media — in Metro Vancouver, an increase of 2.8 per cent over the previous year.
• In 2006, 65.1 per cent of Richmond residents identified themselves as members of an ethnic minority — the highest percentage in Canada after Markham, Ont.
• Nearly four of every 10 Richmond residents speaks a Chinese language as their mother tongue, the highest percentage in Metro Vancouver.
• In Metro, Richmond also has the lowest percentage (38.6 per cent) of residents who speak English as a first language.
• Ten per cent of Richmond's workforce spoke a Chinese language most often at work, according to the 2006 census.
• In 2006, 28,545 Richmond residents identified Cantonese as their mother tongue and 26,235 said it was the language spoken most often at home.
• Richmond residents who spoke Mandarin as a first language rose by 41.6 per cent between 2001 and 2006 to 13,400.
• In 1971, Richmond's workforce was comprised of slightly more than 24,188 people. By 2006, had reached 108,095, a jump of more than 400 per cent.
• Richmond's population is 190,473, according to the 2011 census.

Meet The GRAMMY.com Community Blogger: Rock
(Find out who will be nominated for the 54th Annual GRAMMY Awards live on "The GRAMMY Nominations Concert Live!! — Countdown To Music's Biggest Night" on Nov. 30 from 10–11 p.m. ET/PT on CBS.)
My name is Jamie, but most people know me as HardRockChick.
I've been listening to rock and metal for as long as I can remember. I "see" other genres, but those two have always been my main squeeze. There's something about the heaviness and the drama of it that makes me feel; it helps me express my emotions in some sort of cathartic experience. Headbanging in front of a loud, screaming guitar is where I belong.
In my opinion, it all comes back to Led Zeppelin, Black Sabbath and the Rolling Stones. The DNA of these bands can be found in numerous riffs, lyrics, melodies, and band names. That's why these are three of my favorite bands.
Rock music has manifested itself into a definable lifestyle, one that has leaked into others genres of music today. We hear rappers talking about living like rock stars, we read about pop stars such as Ke$ha trashing her hotel room, the latter a rock star move of days past. Rock riffs are often sampled in hip-hop, and lyrics weave their way into pop songs. Simply, to live like a rock star remains one of the most coveted things in life.
I would say that rock music has taken a hard hit due to the challenges facing today's music industry. Some bands are hesitant to adopt new technology and business models. But there are some rock and metal bands that have shown marked efforts to innovate. I'd say a prime example is Nine Inch Nails, who, alongside perpetuating the "freemium" model of music distribution and upselling limited-edition items to hardcore fans, utilized technology to engage fans, with standout efforts such as a robust iPhone app, an alternate reality game and a crowdsourced concert DVD. And this is in addition to crafting new sounds in the subgenre of industrial metal.
In the past five years, we've seen a revival in both the rock and metal genres. There are a lot of throwback sounds echoing the classic rock and thrash metal of decades past, as well as new sounds in psychedelic and extreme metal.
Quite a few contemporary and up-and-coming artists are helping take rock and metal to the next level. I think that Mastodon, the Dillinger Escape Plan and Opeth lead in the metal genre; and bands such as Black Rebel Motorcycle Club, A Place To Bury Strangers, the Horrors, and Rival Sons are making killer rock music. And the newest band in rock and metal to turn my head is the mysterious Ghost.
As a rock fan, I look forward to what will have me banging my head in the future.

I've recently replaced the thermostat in my fridge with a new unit with a much higher temperature range (this unit specifically).
The unit I took out had a ground connector & the original wiring had it connected. The new unit does not have a place for a ground connection, so I've not connected it.
Everything is running fine, but should I run the ground wire from the fridge somewhere? What could possibly go wrong?

Glistening water wherever you look: the Mecklenburg Lakes Cycle Route runs right through the Mecklenburg lakeland, which features more than a thousand lakes and stretches as far as the coast.
Starting from Lüneburg, you head through the Elbe Valley nature reserve on course for Bleckede, where you cross the Elbe by ferry. Beyond Neustadt-Glewe, you roll through riverside scenery and past meadows, lakes and forests – first to the town of Lübz and then to Lake Plau and Lake Müritz. En route through the Mecklenburg lakes and Müritz National Park you might be able to spot cranes, ospreys and white-tailed eagles. The route then continues through Neustrelitz and Neubrandenburg to Szczecin Bay. As you arrive on Usedom Island, where your journey ends, the views open up across the Baltic Sea and neo-classical seaside villas.
Terrain: mainly on asphalt paths, the route is largely flat with some hilly sections and just a few steep climbs worthy of mention. The route is not always car-free.
Scenery: marshland and sandy heaths in the Elbe Valley nature reserve, lakeland region with meadows, forests and tree-lined avenues, Müritz National Park, Szczecin Bay, and the Baltic coast on Usedom Island with its dramatic cliffs.

Alamance/Caswell Hospice warns patients of possible information breach
Hospice of Alamance/Caswell notified thousands of patients and their families about a possible breach of personal information following a February break-in at the organization's office.
About 5,370 current and past Hospice and LifePath Home Health patients or their next of kin were notified about the possible breach, which occurred during an early morning break-in Feb. 24. Out of caution, Hospice will offer free credit monitoring for a year and is recommending those notified about the potential breach place a fraud alert with credit bureaus.
Though laptop computers were stolen during the break-in and subsequent vandalism of the organization's office at 914 Chapel hill Road, the security breach regards access to paper medical and billing records during the break-in, said Peter Barcus, Hospice's executive director.
"We don't think they had the intention of (accessing patient information) … but you can't be too careful," Barcus said Thursday.
Thus far, there is no evidence that any patient information was accessed or used.
Burlington police charged two men with the Feb. 24 break-in, which caused $60,000 in damage to the business. Most of the damage was done when the intruders discharged fire extinguishers inside. Barcus said some areas of the office were covered in 3 inches of fire-suppressant discharge.
Joseph Leonard Patrick, 19, of 903 Turrentine St., Burlington, and Michael Alan Thomas, 19, of 2912 Ethan Pointe Drive, Apt. 10303, Burlington, were charged with the break-in and damages.
Empty beer cans were found inside the office and some miscellaneous items were also reported stolen along with the laptops.
Data on the computers was encrypted "to conform to industry standards" and protect patient information, the release said. Some patients' names could have been accessible through unencrypted emails, but their billing information and dates of birth or Social Security numbers wouldn't have been included in emails, Barcus said.
As a result of the break-in, Hospice of Alamance/Caswell is increasing security at the office, adding more surveillance cameras, encrypting emails and changing its codes and passwords.
"Hospice of Alamance/Caswell understands the importance of safeguarding our patients' personal information and takes that responsibility very seriously," Barcus said. "We will do all we can to work with our patients or their loved ones whose personal information may have been compromised and help them work through the process."
Questions about the breach can be answered by calling 1-800-588-8879 during business hours Monday through Friday. More information is also available at www.hospiceac.org.

Garam Masala
- 1 tablespoon cumin seeds
- 1 tablespoon coriander seeds
- 2 1/4 teaspoons whole black peppercorns
- 1/4 teaspoon (heaping) whole cloves
- 1 bay leaf
- 1 1/4 teaspoons ground cardamom
- 3/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
- 1/8 teaspoon ground mace
Creamed Corn
- 10 large ears of corn, husked
- 8 tablespoons (1 stick) unsalted butter, divided
- 1/2 cup finely chopped onion
- 3 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt plus more
Recipe Preparation
Garam Masala
Toast cumin and coriander seeds, peppercorns, and cloves in a small skillet over medium heat, stirring constantly, until aromatic, about 2 minutes. Let cool. Transfer to spice mill. Crumble bay leaf and add to mill. Finely grind and transfer to a container. Stir in cardamom, cinnamon, and mace; cover.
Creamed Corn
Cut kernels from cobs into a large bowl (you should have about 8 cups). Scrape cobs with the back of a large knife to release juices into bowl. Combine half of kernels with juices (4 cups) and 1/2 cup water in a blender; purée until smooth.
Melt 2 Tbsp. butter in a large saucepan over low heat. Stir in onion, garlic, and 1 tsp. salt. Cover and cook, stirring often and adding water by tablespoonfuls if dry, until onion is soft and translucent (do not brown), about 10 minutes. Add puréed corn and remaining corn kernels and cook, stirring constantly, until corn is tender, about 10 minutes. Stir in 2 Tbsp. butter. Season with salt. Spoon into a large wide bowl.
Heat remaining 4 Tbsp. butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add 1 1/2 Tbsp. garam masala and a pinch of salt. Whisk until fragrant, about 15 seconds. Drizzle over creamed corn.

One of the main reasons Facebook, Twitter and other voyeuristic social networking tools are popular is pretty obvious - we like to spy on other people.
I've always been a fan of reading letters of long-gone celebrities. Many famous writers were also compulsive note-writers. There have been volumes of letters produced by Ernest Hemingway, J.R.R. Tolkien, Virginia Woolf, Abraham Lincoln, amongst others.
It might be a dying art form, but a handsome new book shows the fleeting beauty tossed-off notes and messages can have.
The John Lennon Letters, compiled by Beatles biographer Hunter S. Davies, features dozens of notes written by Lennon in his lifetime and is a cornucopia for both Beatlemaniacs and letter-spies.
"Lennon lived before computers and email and texts and his first reaction was to write things down," Davies writes.
"He saw them as a little performance."
The John Lennon Letters is a well designed book for die-hard Beatles fans, featuring nearly 300 of Lennon's letters extensively notated and reproduced with his own squiggly handwriting and scribbly cartoons. Each letter has had its history tracked down by Davies, and the context is invaluable, making this a kind of scrapbook biography of Lennon through his letters.
Its scattered contents include everything from letters to fans and other famous folks to mundane shopping lists and surreal insults. Many of the later letters get so lost in Lennon's cryptic wordplay that they're like reading James Joyce's Ulysses to decipher.
One curious omission in the book is any real letters between John and his wife Yoko Ono. Davies says they barely ever wrote each other as they were always together. However, there are plenty of letters that hint at real emotion from behind Lennon's joking, caustic exterior like the early letters to his first wife, Cynthia, or his friend Stuart Sutcliffe, who was briefly a member of the Beatles and died of brain haemorrhage at only 21.
In a 1961 letter to Sutcliffe, Lennon writes: "I can't remember anything without a sadness so deep that it hardly becomes known to me."
This was well before Love Me Do and She Loves You, but the darker Lennon of "Plastic Ono Band" is already evident.
And it's hard not to read a line from a 1979 letter without wincing, just a bit: "I'm 40 next year - I hope life begins."
Lennon's image has gone through many reinventions since his early death, from hippie saint to grouchy genius. What's great about The John Lennon Letters is every facet of his complicated, imperfect personality shines through.
The golden age of the letter may have passed, but a tome like this is a reminder of what a window into a person's mind they could be.
The best books of correspondence:
1. Fear and Loathing in America by Hunter S. Thompson: Thompson was a prolific letter-hack and this volume collects hundreds of letters from 1968 to 1976, as America rambled through the 60s, Vietnam, Watergate and more.
2. The Portable Abraham Lincoln: America's greatest president created some fine letters, speeches and other writings. A highlight is the letter to Lydia Bixby, a widow who lost five sons in the US Civil War.
3. Kurt Vonnegut: Letters: Published just in time to mark what would have been Vonnegut's 90th birthday, this massive tome is a treasure trove of wry wit and curmudgeonly observations, including a harrowing letter on his combat experiences in Dresden, Germany during World War II.
4. The Adams-Jefferson Letters: A joint book collecting the correspondence between the second and third American presidents in the final years of their lives, from 1777 to 1826. It touches on both the political and the personal in a take on American history by two who were there from the start.
The Yage Letters by William S. Burroughs and Allen Ginsberg: A fascinating piece of druggy history, featuring letters written by Burroughs while on a South American trip to track down the legendary yage vine, which was claimed to possess strange powers. It's hallucinogenic travel tales and quite possibly halfway made up, but also terrific letter-writing.
* The John Lennon Letters, published by Little, Brown and Company is available now. RRP NZ$59.99.
Do you enjoy reading other people's letters? What are your favourite compilations of correspondence?

Its the same thing with wrestling thou, TNA the most worthless wrestling promotion on earth is drawing a million of fans, while true wrestling promotions like PWG run in Reseda in front of 300 fans. Bottom line is the general public likes weak shit, the mainstream demands weakness and I guess thats what they get.

LONDON (AP) — World leaders sent in their congratulations and Catholics around the world were celebrating Wednesday after the Vatican announced the election of Argentine Cardinal Jorge Bergoglio to the papacy — making him the first pontiff from the Americas.
Moments after the decision was announced, President Barack Obama offered "warm wishes" to Pope Francis and said the selection speaks to the strength and vitality of the Americas.
"On behalf of the American people, Michelle and I offer our warm wishes to His Holiness Pope Francis," Obama said. "As a champion of the poor and the most vulnerable among us, he carries forth the message of love and compassion that has inspired the world for more than 2,000 years."
British Prime Minister David Cameron and French President Francois Hollande also issued statements of congratulations.
Wednesday was "a momentous day for the 1.2 billion Catholics around the world," Cameron said.
U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon said he looked forward to cooperation with the Holy See under Pope Francis' "wise leadership," while European Union leaders Herman Van Rompuy and Jose Manuel Barroso wished the new Catholic leader "a long and blessed pontificate."
The atmosphere across Latin America was jubilant, with people bursting into tears and cheers on streets from Buenos Aires to Caracas, Venezuela.
"It's incredible!" said Martha Ruiz, 60, who was weeping tears of emotion in the Argentine capital. She said she had been in many meetings with the cardinal and said, "He is a man who transmits great serenity."
At the St. Francis of Assisi church in the colonial Old San Juan district in Puerto Rico, church secretary Antonia Veloz exchanged jubilant high-fives with Jose Antonio Cruz, a Franciscan friar.
"It's a huge gift for all of Latin America. We waited 20 centuries. It was worth the wait," said Cruz, wearing the brown cassock tied with a rope that is the signature of the Franciscan order.
Even in Communist Cuba, there was pride as church bells rang to celebrate the news.
On Twitter, the pope's mothballed account was revived and read: "HABEMUS PAPAM FRANCISCUM," a reference to the cardinal's new name: Pope Francis.

It has been nearly a year since NVX introduce EX10S to the market. Although it has made its debut within the audiophile community already, not much is really known about its sound quality and true potential.
Besides, it is notable that EX10S shares many technical similarities with Vsonic GR07 mkII, which is one of my most favorite dynamic IEMs of all time. GR07 mkII is well-known for its great sound quality, inverted polarity, unique pivoting nozzle design, and usage of a flexible silver cable. If EX10S's sound quality turns out to be as good as that of GR07 mkII, the IEM shall be a great deal for the price.
CON: The absolute polarity is inverted.
IN CONCLUSION: As a new comer, NVX has made a kick off quite soundly. As such, EX10S is nearly half the price of GR07 mkII, but the sound quality is equivalent. If anybody, who likes the sound of Vsonic, is low on budget, I'd recommend NVX EX10S over anything, period.

On May 13, Omar Shahine announced a collection of updates to SkyDrive on the Inside SkyDrive blog.
The most visible update is of course a new view of your SkyDrive content — Timeline View for photos. With this view, which was going to be rolled out over 48 hours, you can see all your photos across all folders and sub-folders in a timeline view. This is very handy because you may have created many photo albums and if you are looking for a certain picture from a certain time in the past, now it is really easy to click through to find the said picture.
The timeline view allows you to see a general timeline listing and then, by clicking on a month name you can quickly browse through the various months where there are pics in your SkyDrive collection. Clicking on a month name will show all the photos with a timestamp of that month.
In addition, Microsoft also announced that they have improved the performance of the SkyDrive desktop application. They claim, per their internal tests, that the upload times are now 2-3x faster than before.
Another minor update was made to the thumbnail layout in SkyDrive, and also, new support now for PowerPoint and Word files.
Finally, related to SkyDrive, earlier they announced that from Windows Phones, the auto-uploading of full-resolution pictures and videos is now going to be possible in all markets and not just the US. It is quite astounding actually, that the auto-upload was not yet in place for most of the world. Anyway, it is better late than never.
It is very clear that the Outlook.com/SkyDrive teams are on a rapid release schedule of some sort because we have seen consistent updates from them over the past several months. Now that the transition from hotmail to Outlook.com is complete, I am hoping we will see some key missing features (music support on SkyDrive, video support in the timeline view, etc.) also implemented in short time.
What do you think of the SkyDrive updates?

Should i say i just gotten the hang of taking photos? I placed a table at my balcony, open up all my balcony windows panes and grills early this morning before i went to work and finally i got some really decent photos with my newly bought toys from Daiso Imm : the plates, table mat and the oh so cute forks haha. Well at least they look pretty bright to me better then all my previous pictures that i took in the night under my house lightning they looks so dull!
Anyway enough digressing, this Lemon Banana Yogurt Cake is already beckoning to me early this morning for me to eat them up, top with grape jam these cakes are divinely yummy! but i think they will even taste better warm so if you do try this warm them up first before devouring them! unlike me i gobble them up without warming them haha!
The zesty smell of lemon, fragrance of banana and yogurt makes this cake hard to resist but i still find the texture kinda of dense for my likening maybe perhaps i used oil instead of butter but then its still yummy don't worry too much!
Lemon Banana Yogurt Cake
(adapted from She Eats Bears with slight modifications)
1/3 cup vegetable oil
1/2 cup sugar
4 small ripe bananas, mashed
1 egg
1/2 cup yogurt
Zest if 1 lemon

1 3/4 cups plain flour
2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
- Preheat oven to 180°C. Grease cake pan. (i used a loaf pan)
- Mix oil and sugar, incorporate mashed bananas, egg, yogurt, lemon zest and lastly lemon juice until well-combined.
- In another bowl, mix together flour, baking powder and baking soda and mix together with batter from step 2 until well-combined.
- Pour into prepared pan and bake for 35-45mins or until passed skewer test.
- Cool in pan before removing.

Lois and Clark. Felicity and Ben. Sydney and Vaughn. It is a sad fact, but I've been an avid TV "shipper" pretty much since I learned how to wield the remote control. That includes childhood favorites and also my current "adult" mainstays. So as an avid Good Wife viewer from Day One, I have always naturally been Team Will (Josh Charles), or "Willicia" if you will, 100 percent. He's loved Alicia (Julianne Margulies) for 15 years! Her husband cheated on her with a prostitute! That deleted voicemail! And, most importantly, that kiss! The "Willicia" argument seemed pretty cut and dried. But a funny thing happened on the way to Alicia and Will's destined-happily-ever-after — I switched sides. After Sunday's episode, in which a young beautiful campaign worker lied about having had an affair with Peter, I realized that four seasons has turned this Will fan into a surprisingly strong Team Florrick supporter. So what changed? Here's five reasons my vote is for Peter (Chris Noth):
Photos: The Good Wife summons Amanda Peet, Christina Ricci and more
1. Time served: Ok, so maybe technically there is no way for someone to really pay his dues after cheating on his wife with a prostitute, having photos of said affair leak and embarrass his wife in front of the entire country. But Peter has come pretty close. He spent months locked up in orange and then when he was finally let go on house arrest, he didn't argue with Alicia when she banished him to the guest bedroom. Even though she tossed him several mixed signals — like when she slept with him after kissing Will — he was never presumptuous about the status of their very complicated marriage and basically waited patiently until he got those rare green lights.
2. The lone ranger: Sunday's episode, and specifically the false accusations of an affair, raised a very interesting question: What exactly has Peter been up to since getting kicked out by Alicia for sleeping with Kalinda (Archie Panjabi) way back when? While Alicia was fooling around with her boss, was Peter having fun of his own? His entire political career rests on his image as a married man, but Alicia already learned the hard way that Peter knows how to keep secrets. He's never been shown even looking at another woman, let alone dating or sleeping around, but that doesn't necessarily mean he's been a saint. However, until there's evidence that points to the contrary, Peter has been depicted as a man who only has eyes for his wife, and that's an easy man to root for.
Hamish Linklater heads to The Good Wife
3. The better man: Diane (Christine Baranski) said it best (and most tersely) at the end of last season when she asked Will, "Could you please keep your pants zipped?" Unlike Peter, Will has never gone too long without adding to his little black book, whether it be a brief fling (the young reporter in Season 2), an old friend (Emily in Season 1), a bona fide girlfriend (sports journalist Tammy, also in Season 2) or something in between a la Callie Simko (Julianne Nicholson). Because of his dating record, watching the seemingly commitment- and kid-phobic lawyer morph into a lovesick puppy dog was a little jarring and — dare we say it — a little disappointing compared to the more ruthless and risk-taking Will seen in earlier seasons. Will's most shining moments throughout the series have always been when he's going out on a limb or cutting corners in some fashion — which means Will can never be the character fans love and the good man fans want for the good wife at the same time. And we'll take (slightly) sleazy Will over "reformed" Will any day of the week.
4. The way they were: Aside from a nod or two to Alicia and Peter's former glory days as the prom queen and king of Highland Park in the show's early days, The Good Wife has never been big on flashbacks — that is until Alicia's old house went on the market at the end of Season 3. In the end, Peter got the house — thanks, Jackie! — and also earned some major goodwill with fans as the show pulled the curtain back on the Florricks' once-blissfully happy marriage. Sure, the writers also showed the morning before Peter's infamous press conference and other unhappy times, but if these two were that were in love before everything happened, could Alicia and Peter find their way back to that happy place someday now that she's learned to accept his faults? It's not impossible, especially after those — count 'em — two kisses Alicia planted on him at the end of Sunday's episode.
5. The kids: When asked, "Why do you stay with your husband?" by reporter Peggy Byrne (Kristin Chenoweth) in the season premiere, Alicia said it was because she wanted to honor her commitment to Peter, but watchful fans know the other big reason: her kids. Over the years, Alicia has never made no secret of her disdain for how her parents handled their divorce during her childhood. And just like Alicia would do anything for her children, Peter has proved he's willing to throw his weight around for their sake as well. First, he had every cop in Chicago searching for Grace (Makenzie Vega) when she went on her top-secret baptism mission, and then he used his political clout to get Zach (Graham Phillips) and Grace into private school, prickly dean be damned. Peter is a natural, and powerful, father figure — a sharp contrast to Will, who proved his ineptitude with kids during his awkward encounter with Zach in Alicia's office. "Keep on keepin' on?" What does that even mean?! Maybe Will can change, and maybe it would/will be different with his own kids, but Alicia has no time to give him a crash course on parenting. This one is a no contest.
The Good Wife airs Sundays at 9/8c on CBS. Are you Team Will or Team Peter?

And then when you get your Windows fully configured the way you want, back it up with Clonezilla (you can get back to this state easily, then). You could also use Partimage, but it requires more knowledge to operate.
And once you get your Puppy added in, perhaps make another backup of the disk (you should have a decent size external backup drive in any event).
I would recommend that the Windows be installed on a small-ish partition, leaving the rest of the drive for user space (file storage). Then to perform a backup of the OS, is just that first partition (separate from the many GB of user files).
BTW, I installed a dual boot on my XP laptop using the Lin'N'Win method (which doesn't require mucking with the MBR -- just append your system onto the existing Windows bootloader).

Subject description: XP-Linux Multiboot
Similar to what I did.
Thanks for the confirmation.
On my main computer with XP / Linux:
I reduced the XP partition, installed Ubuntu in Part#2, installed PartitionMagic in Part#3, Triple booting.
Used Clonezilla.
Have 3 USB ext HD.
I planted a Partition Magic folder (made by copying the Live-CD) in the XP partition. See his website for simple method.
Altered grub.cfg to capture it.
Did a reboot into the Triple-Boot menu
and Partition Magic was running
in RamDrive out of the XP NTFS partition.
On my second "SandBox" computer,
I installed
(1) Ubuntu in the first partition,
(2) Lighthouse Puppy in the second partition,
(3) Knoppix 6.4 in a third partition,
(4) PartitionMagic in the fourth partition,
(5) then re-installed Ubuntu in the first partition,
and modified the grub.cfg to capture all four.
(6) There are several other partitions for storage of all created data.
Later I use Gparted to "copy" a Puppy partition to a new partition, then modified grub.cfg to also point to that one. It ran but with some apparent conflict with the 'first' puppy save.2fs file it found.
Some of the config changes would transfer from one Puppy to the other Puppy. The Puppy apparently starts at part#1 and searched for a save.2fs file, using the FIRST one it finds. Surprise!
So, I cleared that up, experiment finished.
Gparted copy/paste of a partition works OK.
Just don't plan on booting into either of two Puppy OS on the same HD, without some possible sharing of the save.2fs.
We are so fortunate to have great software engineers in Linux!
I could not keep up with them, and I've been in this over 30 years.
Thanks for your comments, Retro.

Post subject: Problems installing Puppy
Thanks Glen.. & Retro.. for your replies.
What should I do get out of where I am hung with the cursor frozen after I pressed ENTER at "Press ENTER key to continue, CTRL-C to abort: ^[OM ??
As I explained, when the same problem happened as I was trying to install Puppy on the USB flash stick a few days ago, I just switched off the computer to abort the installation. But then I found that the CD wouldn't boot my computer until I re-inserted the USB flash stick. So I guess maybe switching off the computer during the installation causes problems, and so I am asking how to get out of the present frozen cursor situation so that Puppy can demount the media and shut down properly, or to find some way of continuing the Puppy install on the USB. I think I would like to see Puppy installed on the USB before I try to install it on the HD. Is my only option to switch off the computer?

We did get off topic, sorry. Old men reminisce.
(1) Stopping Power during a write can write trash to the HD.
(2) Have someone else put the iso on the usb flash drive.
(3) Try rebooting from this new usb flash drive.
If that fails, then
(4) Try the F2/3 and change the BIOS settings,
to boot from the CD first, (just to be sure).
If that fails, then
(5) Try the F2/3 and change the BIOS settings,
to boot from the USB first, (just to be sure).
If that fails, then
(6) Try the live-CD from Partition Magic.
It boots directly to RAM (if your CD device will do a boot at all).
If it were me, I'd try the Partition Magic ISO live-CD first.
That way you can make certain you have a proper OS partition
and a proper SWAP partition.
In the end, you can look to re-mounting the HD
into a second computer, as a spare drive.
Then Boot Partition Magic CD and re-format.
Then Put the HD back in your original computer, and re-install OS.
Stay in touch.

Post subject: Problems installing Puppy
Thanks glen.., I rebooted.
Then I downloaded Partition_magic_8.05_bootable_iso.3283190.TPB.torrent to /root/my-downloads. I found Burniso2cd and burnt the iso 'open' (multisession). The burn was not verified ("You should start over") so I tried burning 'normal'. Again the burn was not verified ("You should start over") so I tried burning 'open' (multisession) again but it wouldn't allow it. I have no idea at this stage how to unpack or install the Partition_magic_8.05_bootable_iso.3283190.TPB.torrent which is stored in /root/my-downloads on a 463M /pupsave.2fs file on the 16GB USB drive (where the Fedora OS is).
As I don't know what to do with the Partition Magic ISO live-CD yet, I went back to Gparted Partition Manager and reformatted what I thought was a 6G flash drive, but now guess is an 8G flash drive, into 2 partitions: the first is now a 3.48G ext2 (3.41G boot unused) to contain Puppy (I hope that is a good choice - I know a /pupsave.2fs file needs less than 540M but have no idea how much space the whole of Puppy 4.3 needs) and the second partition is a 4.05G (4G unused) to contain my files (I might expand this and contract the Puppy partition once I know how much space is needed in the Puppy partition). I can reformat the second partition after I get Puppy onto the first one. Should I format the partition that will hold files I want to access with windows computers as a fat16, fat32 or NTSC? (there's another option called 'linux-swap' – is that also accessible by windows computers? Most of my files will be open-office so perhaps they are accessible by Windows computers regardless of the formatting of the drive, I'm not sure. At the moment both partitions on the 8G flash drive are ext2.
Glen.., you suggested that I make a SWAP partition but I'm not sure if you were advising that for when I went on later to try to get both Puppy and Windows XP onto my hard drive. At the moment I am just focusing on getting Puppy installed on a bootable 8GB flash drive. Do I need a SWAP partition between Puppy and the second partition which will hold my Openoffice files made with Windows XP? I doubt it.
Sorry if I've not comprehended what you were suggesting so far. I hope to grasp more as I proceed.
Regards from Ray

Subject description: Installing Puppy
Doing great!
When Puppy Opens from the HD, it enables an auto-archive-extract mode (not the right words), and from there on, the Puppy subdir 'appear' to you. When it closes/shutsdown this mode is cleared, and from another OS you will see mainly the several .SFS files.
You are trying to load a bootable 8GB flash drive.
I have done this with Xubuntu and it worked. Need to check
it for a SWAP area. Did it via UBootIn. When I have checked it, I'll write back.
I downloaded the pmagic ISO and placed it, as is, into a /pmagic subdir in (1) Windows XP, and later moved it to be withing the Ubuntu partition, and later to its own partition. Each time it was in a /pmagic subdir, directly at what we usually call the root or base subdir. Pmagic docs say that during boot, as called by Grub.cfg, it will only search one level deep to find it's packages. As an example, when I placed /pmagic on the NTFS XP partition, it was C:/pmagic.
This is the base level as used by XP. All the pmagic.iso was placed inside of C:/pmagic. It is in the docs on the webside, and this is what it refers to. It also describes the Grub.cfg script used to call it, very simple really.
Enough of that.
You want to boot the live-CD to RAM ?
Burn the ISO to CD in single-session. Standard method for ISO.
Multi-session is for special compiles of your own data.
Burn the ISO to CD in single-session.
The .ISO extension is a flag-word for CD-burning programs.
When GpartEd runs on a medium, and you want to make/use it as a 'bootable' partition, remember that this beginning location will be pointed to by the MBR as it jumps to the 'bootable' partition and locks for the 'booting' script, etc. If you later move/resize and cause this 'boot' location to change, then MBR will not be able to find the 'bootable' partition. At that point, you have to load a live-CD and re-establish the link, which is a ball-of-wax for later experience.
In my experience, 4GB is much large enough for Puppy, and later you can (only if need be) resize to GpartEd's 'right' (not left) grahical sizing, which will leave the 'bootable' partition's beginning location intact. Using GpartEd GUI for all these maneuvers has a distanct advantage of common interface and language for folks, like me, who are not long-term Linux geeks.
Windows XP OS will only recognize NTFS and FAT-32, etc, and never Linux Ext2,3,4, etc.
Now, the SWAP format is a binary form used only by Linux OS, and nobody else can deal with it. Lay one big enough to make up for a lack of 1GB memory at the far right of the GpartEd GUI display, maybe even as a 'primary' partition of its own. However you do that, it is used to make up for lack of large RAM space, so you can figure that, and pad it out some. There is no magic to the SWAP. Windows has used a flexible Swap File for many years. Linux uses a fixed Swap Partition. Similar things.
On my sandbox computer, today, I have :
Primary partition hda0,1 Ubuntu, bootable, with grub.cfg.
Extended partition hda0,2 containing:
LightHouse Puppy (hda0,7)
Knoppix (hda0,6)
Pmagic (hda0,9)
I have used one 1GB with a RAM of .5GB (512MB).
I had 5GB left on my sandbox computer, the one with half-dozen OS, and killed off the old 2GB (which of course prevented me from booting to the installed OS !!!), then I booted PartitionMagic Live-CD, which requires only minimal RAM and no SWAP, and made a 'primary' partition of 1GB at the far right, and rebooted, into Ubuntu, which searched for and found the new SWAP.
From there, running GpartEd from Ubuntu, what I found is that I had to edit the Ubuntu Grub.cfg and re-number the partitions above 5 ( the old location of the 'other' OS) to be one number lower. That was because there was one less partition numbered (remember I killed off the SWAP partition which was inside the Extended Partition used for my 'other' Linux OS. So, Knoppix went from hda0,7 to hda0,6. Likewise for the remainder of my 'other' Linux OS. That is how I used GpartEd to manipulate the SWAP file and cause the necessary re-numbering of the various partitions, ending up with the table presented above. It is a neat and logical manipulation. It you move the leading edge of a 'bootable' partition, then the boot system may not be able to find the 'bootable' partition (same 'maybe' with the SWAP), and then you have to edit the boot system script (grub.cfg) to make it work. I have dozens of grub_backup_todays_date.cfg files to be able to restore my 'custome code' in 'MY' grub.cfg, just in case Ubuntu activates an update-grub routine.
That said, lets move on.
You asked "you suggested that I make a SWAP partition" and I replied to some of the SWAP concepts above.
(1) Windows will not recognize the SWAP, and never will need to.
(2) "You" do not store anything in the Linux SWAP, it is for system RAM overflow, just like Windows does, and is related to available RAM for Linux, moment by moment.
* Windows will only read/write against FAT-16/32 and NTFS. Store your created data in some partition which both Windows and Linux can see.
* I use Linux to read/write my OpenOffice and MS-Office files on both the Windows partition and the Linux partitions. I have run OpenOffice from both Windows and Linux against both Fat-32, NTFS, and EXT2 formated partitions. Seems to function all the time.
* I do not try to store any of my Puppy personal data in a system SFS. Seems too complicated to re-do an ISO file, and I don't know how.
* Puppy will usually drop your personal data into the save.2fs which Puppy provides for this very purpose. Puppy (vanilla) will drop your added programs (downloads via PuppyPackageMgr) into the save.2fs.
* Puppy (vanilla)
You can create additional subdir next to the Puppy OS sfs files, just like an ordinary subdir called "/Storage" created in the ordinary way, and use it as you see fit. Puppy can find it via ROX-filer or PCMan-filer, and (with some picking around, from the applications like OpenOffice, Gimp, Audacity, which usually want you to find /mnt and then find the base level of the current Puppy partition). But it works. Ubuntu is more like windows when it comes to pointing into your custom subdir, using the Nautilus-filer.
* On the subject of the save.sfs,
Under Lighthouse Puppy OS you can have established an addition subdir for 'programs' which are 'linked' to the LightHouse Puppy OS, thus not packing too much into the save.2sf.
* You wrote "Do I need a SWAP partition between Puppy and the second partition which will hold my Openoffice files made with Windows XP? I doubt it. "
You can not do it that way. Not a SWAP function, period.
You will need a SWAP partition, for the SWAP function.
I don't know if you can run a Linux OS without SWAP partition,
I have, to date, been focused on having one, getting my Ubuntu to find it, and understanding its function.
I use a 512MB SWAP on my fast computer, just to have one,
and only to make up for RAM requirements if I am running OpenOffice, FireFox, GIMP, Audacity, etc, all at the same time. If you have a GIG of computer RAM available, then
the SWAP function may never be activated by the OS.
* Your personal "Archive" partition can be anywhere,
using a format readable by every OS you install.
*** (Windows = NTFS, FAT-32, and Linux = Any-format).
*** I would choose NTFS if you are heavy into Windows.
*** I have chosen to ignore Windows, and focus on Linux Ext2.
*** I use Windows only for my AutoCAD 2000, and costing $3500 US dollars you can understand why I maintain Windows_XP thusly. Someday I may learn how to use zWINE to facilitate AutoCAD in a Linux OS.
I am wordy, verbose.
Hope I said it all in an organized format.
Read through it, then go back and pick out what you need.

Subject description: Installing Puppy
Have just installed
Puppy 4.2-ret to USB flash drive.
That was the only version available via this method.
# I ran the Ubuntu "unetbootin"
and installed Puppy 4.2-ret, from the Puppy website,
selecting the only version available "current",
into an 8GB USB flash drive.
# It required 103.4 MB, with 7.4 GB free.
# There was no mention of a SWAP, ane NO partitioning,
and I found no trace of such on the flash drive.
# The function of the SWAP is to provide for extended RAM,
to catch RAM overflow.
# This machine has 1 GB RAM,
and the Puppy 4.2 OS requires only 103.4 MB,
therefore I did not expect any RAM overflow.
Hope that info helps.
I suggest running unetbootin, selecting a website, & version,
then let me know.
# One thing crossed my mind.
My machine will only detect the USB flash drive
If it is the ONLY USB Device Attached !
and if there is at least a 10 second POST delay at bootup.
Buena Suerte !

Sorry I don't trust that I can help but if you are that eager to try out themes.
then Floppy puppy and Puppeee most likely have built in themes at least 5 maybe 7 such and by looking at how Jemimah does it maybe hint at how to do it.
In case that doesn't suite you then try to start a question about it in the Beginners forum. I don't trust that every user that are fond of themes read here?
I am so naive that I even fail to get what themes are but I do remember that Fluppy???? had at least 5 maybe 7 such and one of them changed the shut down from most upper right to most upper left. I guess that made it a MAC theme?
I use Google Search on Puppy Forum
not an ideal solution though

How to Install Puppy with Floppy Diskettes
Subject description: Installation with 1.44 MB Diskettes
Is it possible to install Puppy using several 1.44 MB Floppy Diskettes? If not, is it possible to install another Linux Distro small enough to use 1.44 MB Diskettes? I am looking for it in order to recover an old Pentium 1 PC. Thank you for your orientation.

Subject description: Installation with 1.44 MB Diskettes
You might be able to do something with tomsrtbt. It is a single floppy, command line only, Linux distribution that fits on a specially formatted 11722kB floppy disk. All the floppy drives that I have tried were able to read a 1722kB floppy but you need to be able to do the initial formatting. It is many years since I last tried this and I would have to go searching to find how I did it. One limitation with this distribution is that it does not support ntfs file systems but your old PC probably uses a FAT file system.

Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol and Edgar Cayce's Insights
By John Van Auken
Get ready for another fast-paced, action-packed thriller with Tom Hanks as Harvard professor Robert Langdon searching to break the mysterious code of arcane symbols to discover the secret that will end the horror! Actually, in this latest thriller, professor Langdon is looking for a pyramid that contains the key to turning men into gods. Langdon is driven into this dark world to save his mentor, Peter Solomon, the kidnapped and mutilated CEO of the Smithsonian Institution (and an obvious pointer to Solomon's Temple and the Masons). Anticipating huge demand, Doubleday printed 6.5 million copies of Dan Brown's latest book, The Lost Symbol! (There are 81 million copies of The Da Vinci Code in print!)
In this newest mystery-thriller, Brown reveals what many have surmised, that Washington, D.C., was laid out according to a secret geometric code designed by the Freemasons, those most secretive, underground rulers of nations. Tradition holds that the men who built Solomon's Temple founded Freemasonry and that many of the Founding Fathers of the United States were indeed Freemasons. Of the 56 persons who signed the Declaration of Independence in 1778, 15 of them were Masons. Of the 39 signers of the United States Constitution, 28 were high degree Masons. Fourteen presidents were openly Freemasons; nine more have been suspected of being Masons.
Key among Washington's designers was Thomas Jefferson, who developed initial plans and modified the final plans for the capital district of the new nation—despite the hiring of Pierre L'Enfant as the primary architect. Jefferson, along with many of the Founding Fathers, incorporated the secret symbolism of Freemasonry into the new nation's icons, notably the Great Seal of the nation—both sides of which appear on the one-dollar bill.
Annuit Coeptis means "Announcing the birth of," and Novus Ordo Seclorum means "New World Order," thus it says, "Announcing the Birth of the New World Order." The date in Roman numerals is 1776. The Latin E Pluribus Unum means "Out of Many, One."
In one of Edgar Cayce's famous past-life readings (1208-1), he identified Thomas Jefferson as the reincarnation of another nation builder who also built an enormous library: Alexander the Great, who built the renowned library of Alexandria, Egypt. Curiously, in 1814, when the first U.S. Library of Congress burned down, as had the great library in Alexandria, it was Thomas Jefferson's library that replaced the lost Library of Congress.
Cayce also said, "Americanism, with the universal thought that is expressed and manifested in the brotherhood of man into group thought, as expressed by the Masonic Order, will be the eventual rule in the settlement of affairs in the world. Not that the world is to become a Masonic order, but the principles that are embraced in it will be the basis upon which the new order of peace is to be established.... When these things are considered, then, it is self-evident that individuals should be up and doing." (1152-11)
What are some of the mottos and codes of the Masonic order? Dan Brown's book focuses on the Scottish Rite Masonry, putting its seal on the front cover of his book. In this we see the number 33, which is the highest degree awarded in the Scottish Rite; the double-headed eagle, which symbolizes East and West united; and the words Ordo ab chao, which means "Order from chaos." Freemasonry espouses the values of brotherly love, relief (i.e., charity), and truth (i.e., good morals). The masonry part comes from the idea that, by applying in our lives the precepts of ancient master builders, we can all benefit—of course, those precepts are proprietary Masonic knowledge. Freemasonry believes in a Creative Principle, or force, from which everything emanates. The Freemasons use architectural symbolism to explain life.
One of their principal symbols is the square and architect's compass, tools of the trade of masons. As measuring instruments, the tools represent judgment and discernment. The compass, which is used to draw circles, represents the realm of the spiritual and eternity. It is symbolic of the defining and limiting principle, and also of infinite boundaries—the Kabbalah's orbs on the Tree of Life. The square measures the angle, the symbol of earth and the realm of the material. The square represents fairness, balance, firmness, and the like, which is reflected in phrases such as "on the square" and "squared away." Something that is squared is something that is stable, a foundation for building upon. The square represents matter, and the architect's compass symbolizes the spirit or mind. The architect's compass straddles the square, representing the interdependence of the two. In the space between them, there is optionally placed a blazing star or other symbol of Light, representing truth or knowledge. Alternatively, there is often a letter G, said to represent God and/or Sacred Geometry.
In Dan Brown's new book, the Washington Monument is at the center of the secret geometric grid, and its cap contains the lost secret! George Washington was a strong Mason, and inside the entrance to his monument, just about his image, is the Egyptian Winged Orb of God Consciousness, with two cobras, symbolizing the kundalini energy, or élan vital, and a five-pointed star, representing the five senses and appendages of the body.
Dan Brown's premise that Washington, D.C. was secretly arranged according to a Masonic pattern will be a surprise to those living in Sandusky, Ohio, because, according to their town's records, Hector Kilbourne, first "Worshipful Master" of the Sandusky Masonic Lodge, laid out the grid for the downtown of Sandusky, Ohio, in 1818, as the only city in the world originally laid out on Masonic symbols.
Cayce's readings say, "Washington is and will be the center of the world. From those environs must go much that will rule or direct the thoughts of men of the world, everywhere." (3003-1)
Here is the supposed layout of Washington. The triple Tau is the "Sacred Name" expressing the Trinity of the Divine and is secretly used in Masonic rites and design. The Grand Commander of the Ancient and Accepted Scottish Rite of Freemasonry, Albert Pike, wrote: "The triple Tau, in the center of a circle and a triangle (see illustration) typifies the Sacred Name; and represents the Sacred Triad of the Creating, Preserving, and Destroying Powers [Hindu gods Brahma, Vishnu, and Shiva, the latter is the destroyer of illusions); as well as the three great lights of Masonry: Wisdom, Strength, and Harmony."
According to The Lost Symbol, the Masons also hid lost words of great power inside their secret grid. The evil one in this book is a bodybuilder, covered from head to toe in occult tattoos, who nicknames himself Mal'akh (Moloch), after one of the devils in Paradise Lost. He is determined to possess that magic word. Remember, Dan Brown writes entertaining fiction, no matter how much he makes it sound like fact!

Harvest Autumn Potroast
Good old-fashioned pot roast has a new mouthwatering flavor the way Deby Kominski prepares it. "This colorful dish makes an appealing holiday meal," she writes from Honesdale, Pennsylvania. "The cranberries mixed with horseradish give the beef terrific taste. You can add any vegetables you like to make it more unique."—Deby Kominski, Honesdale, Pennsylvania
Total TimePrep: 30 min. + cooling Bake: 2-3/4 hours

Cover and cook 15 minutes longer. Add carrots and onions; cover and cook 30-40 minutes more or until meat reaches desired doneness (for medium-rare, a thermometer should read 135°; medium, 140°; medium-well, 145°). Remove meat and vegetables; keep warm. Discard spice bag.
- Cool pan juices for 10 minutes; transfer to a blender. Cover and process until smooth; return to pan. Combine cornstarch and cold water until smooth. Gradually whisk into pan juices. Bring to a boil; cook and stir for 1-2 minutes or until thickened. Serve with meat and vegetables.
