The Tide Is Turning Towards
By Dave Hartline
This is a little saying I have been uttering for weeks now. I thought I would put these words into an essay to lay out why
the tide is turning towards Catholicism. It all goes back to August, when my wife and I visited the Notre Dame campus. I met up with an old friend who is a priest and professor there. The first week of football practice was underway
and I asked him how the team was being perceived and how things were going for the team. He said he thought the turmoil of former coach Tyrone
Willingham's firing was behind everyone and the campus and the Notre Dame community was looking forward to the future. Do you think the tide is
turning for the team I asked the priest? "Yes. it is," he said. "Maybe no one outside
this close knit group knows it but yes the tide is turning"
That same tide is now turning towards Catholicism on the world stage. One might ask how can that be, isn't the Abuse
Scandal still fresh in everyone's mind and hasn't it taken away from the clarity of the Catholic Church's voice? I believe the tide
started to turn in April of 2005. In that amazing month the Catholic Church was on center stage. Pope John
Paul II died on April 2 and the world was gripped by the events at the Vatican throughout the month of April. The life of this amazing man from Poland
was constantly being shown on various news and information channels.
The world then saw the amazing pageantry of the Catholic Church with the burial of Pope John Paul II and during the conclave when the College of Cardinals convened to
elect a new pope. This was followed by examinations of the life of Cardinal Ratzinger now Pope Benedict XVI. George Weigel details this more thoroughly in his wonderful book "God's Choice." Catholics and
non-Catholics were gripped by these events. Catholics who admitted to being less than faithful in their church attendance were now going to Mass and
churches reported a spike in attendance.
The reason for the turning of the tide towards Catholicism doesn't stop there. In the months following April, the
world has seen a vibrant Pope Benedict, not only in his audiences at the Vatican and the large crowds that accompany his speeches but also in his travel to his homeland, Germany, for World Youth Day. The world had been accustomed to seeing the "suffering servant"
model of Pope John Paul II's papacy which in itself was a powerful Catholic statement. Now Pope Benedict, while also well past retirement age,
seemed full of vim and vigor.
The Catholic Church's perceived conservative stance was deemed an impairment to many but some of the more liberal mainstream Protestant churches that were trying
to be all things to all people were finding their numbers plummeting. The world seemed to be saying what most school age kids say about discipline, they
claim to hate it but secretly desire it.
The entertainment industry was also showing a new found Catholic appeal. The Lord of the Rings trilogy, one of the highest
grossing movies in motion picture history was written by devout Catholic JRR Tolkien. In the movie all kinds of Catholic teachings
were subtly illustrated, perhaps none better than the oft dismissed Catholic notion of purgatory. Two networks, ABC and CBS quickly produced made
for television movies about the life of Pope John Paul II following his death. The biggest Catholic blockbuster was Mel Gibson's the Passion of
the Christ, which is in the Top 10 all time grossing movies. With all its controversy, especially among some Jewish and secular groups, came support from
Evangelical groups. The irony was that 25 years ago the same Evangelicals that were adamantly against President Reagan sending an ambassador to the
Vatican were now actively supporting a very "Catholic" oriented film about Jesus Christ's Passion. With it's theme of a
"Suffering Christ" along with a very pronounced role for Mary, the mother of Jesus, the world was seeing a very Catholic movie.
The Catholic theme has returned to the football field in the newly rejuvenated Notre Dame Football squad. As it was alluded
to earlier, Notre Dame like the Catholic Church went through a painful process of first firing coach Tyrone Willingham and then finding a replacement.
Some prominent candidates turned down the job when it appeared it would be tough sledding for the new coach. However one man, Charlie Weis, a graduate
of the school who was not on the football team sought the job and became head coach. He seemed right out of a Knute Rockne or "Rudy"
movie. As a matter of fact he brought in the rags to riches former Notre Dame player Rudy Ruettiger to speak to the
team, the first such honor ever given to the subject of the movie "Rudy." Weis wasn't apologizing for any perceived Notre Dame shortcomings as some wanted
him to do. The beliefs of Coach Weis could be described in the following way: This is what we believe and who we are. If you don't like the way things are done here, you have a choice
to go somewhere else, there's the door. Weis seemed to strike a chord with many rank and file Catholics who liked the directness of Pope John Paul II and Pope Benedict XVI but often
longed for the same approach with many local, state and national Catholic leaders. You wouldn't want your favorite sports team's coach to apologize for winning and doing what they think
is right. Why then wouldn't you not expect the same out of a religious leader? It seemed as if many "gray" church attendees were looking for just that approach. They were
now heading for a place where they wanted to win and not aoplogize for it, that place to them was the Catholic Church. Jesus might have been different things to different
people. However most if not all would agree, gray and mealy-mouthed he was not.
It may have seemed from a sports perspective that the Notre Dame team, who many experts picked to have a losing season only to go 9-2 and earn a bid to the Bowl
Championship Series (BCS) and earn 14.5 million dollars for doing so, would have been the biggest story. However, from a Catholic teachable moment
perspective the most memorable event may have come on the first offensive play for Notre Dame in their game against the University of Washington.
Coach Charlie Weis had visited a dying boy, Montana Mazurkiewicz who when Weis asked if there was anything he wanted to do, the dying boy replied, "I want to call the
first play in the game against Washington." Weis said sure what do you want me to do, "pass right," said Montana. The request seemed harmless
enough to Weis at the time but when the game commenced Notre Dame's first offensive possession found them backed up against their own goal line.
Passing right was seemingly the last thing on Coach Weis' mind. However he did honor Montana's request, finding out shortly before the game
he had passed away. The following play resulted in something right out of the lore of a Knute Rockne speech as the tight end, Anthony Fasano, caught
quarterback Brady Quinn's pass, leapt over a smaller more agile defensive back and obtained a first down. The play and the story behind
would be told over and over again as the season progressed. As Montana's mother said, "Coach Weis honored a dying boy's request under the most impossible circumstances."
The Catholic theme was coming from many sources that weren't Catholic. CS Lewis was getting a new found popularity, especially as it related to the release of the
Narnia movie. Lewis' prominence also gave prominence to the person that Lewis said was chiefly responsible for his conversion, JRR
Tolkein. In light of the problems with the Anglican Church and its seeming abandonment of the tradition Lewis most admired about it, is there any wonder
that if Lewis were alive today he would follow the path so many other devout Anglicans have followed and become Catholic. Even bed rock Evangelical
writers like Chuck Colson have sounded more Catholic as of late. The former Watergate conspirator turned repentant prison minister is sounding more and
more Catholic and whether that is due to this Catholic wife or not, it is turning heads in literary circles. In this recent Christianity Today article, Colson recounted the travails of both St Teresa of Avila and St John of the Cross and how that corresponds to
his spiritual journey. Perhaps the most interesting literary development of the year is the return of novelist Ann Rice from the "dark side." She has come back into the Catholic world,
which she left as a teenager, after many years of dabbling in novels conerning dark, occult like subjects. She returned to the Catholic world with a vengence, appearing in
various media formats describing her "Prodigal Daughter" experience. This story, along with many others, were frequently discussed on the rapidly growing number of Catholic websites and
blogs. The overhwelming majority of these websites and blogs reflect the Church's traditional stance on many issues. Yet another sign that the faithful are happy with the message of the
Finally, as the year closed out, a flurry of stories hit the media about the growing number of large non-denominational churches, often called mega churches that would
be closed for Christmas. The original story seemed to put these mega churches in the same category as a mega store like Wal-Mart closing for
Christmas. Stories hit the press mentioning quotes from pastors of these churches indicating that a church service is a big production requiring
lighting and sound crews in addition to ushers and parking lot personnel. These people needed to be at home with their families on Christmas, even though
Christmas this year falls on a Sunday. The more these pastors talked the more it seemed like they were preparing for a rock concert instead of a church service. Many who fill these churches were once part of smaller mainline Protestant or Catholic churches. The bad publicity
these mega-churches were getting were adding fuel to the fire of many Catholic traditionalists who were saying church should be more than entertaining a large crowd.
While the Catholic Church like many mainline Protestant churches had its fair share of less than inspiring priests, ministers and deacons, the Catholic Mass to
believers is part of something that Jesus himself started 2,000 years ago on Holy Thursday night. Although the Church has been hit with a withering
barrage of angry naysayers, like lapsed Catholic Andrew Sullivan, perhaps one can say the Church has taken their best punch and withstood it well. While
there have been many ebbs and flows in the history of Catholicism, perhaps we are now beginning a new and promising flow of faith.

What do guys think of innocent girls?
I don't drink, smoke or curse. I get embarrassed easily, and blush a lot. I don't have casual sex. And even though I'm open minded, and a bit wild in bed, I don't talk about my sex life with random people. I have no tattoos, and my ears are the only thing I have pierced. I am told I look innocent, and I was just wondering if guys fund that attractive?
What's Your Opinion?
Most Helpful Opinion
Never mind what guys think of. If they need tatoo or need you to be or do something that is not you, then they messed out on having you. You sound like the girl that can have the world in your hands because you stand by good so don't fall weak and submit to the bad side of us all.
What Guys Said 5
Well, if you're wild in bed, you aren't all that innocent. But yeah, you are describing a great girlfriend, at least in the sexual realm.
Sounds nice
I can't stand tats on girls, and the lack of piercings is a plus also. I think that smoking is pretty unattractive. The only thing that I find unattractive is the fact that you don't drink. It's much better than a girl who drinks too much, but it would be nice if it wasn't awkward for me to have a beer or two around her every now and then.
Why would it be awkward to drink around me? It's not because I have anything aginist drinking. Just that I don't care much for the taste, and I can't drink very much anyways. I'm a lightweight. lol it doesn't bother me at all for people to drink.
As long as she doesn't mind it wouldn't be a problem. I might worry that you feel left out somehow, but as long as that's not the case, it would be fine. To really answer your question, different guys think different things about what you describe as "innocent" girls. Some guys look for girls like you specifically, while others seek out different qualities in girls.
Don't change anything that you mentioned for guys. Just find the ones who appreciate those qualities.
What Girls Said 4
They like to corrupt them.
No a lot of guys would find that hot
That's not being innocent, that's just not being a stereotypical idiot. I think girls who label themselves as innocent often times try too hard to be considered innocent.Just be yourself. A lot of guys will appreciate that.
Thanks. :)
Your not innocent if you have sex.

This enduring party theme is always a fall favorite!
These farm-fresh party favors include a decorative felt apple on a small wooden basket -- perfect for holding an assortment of apple-themed gifts for your guests!
You can find decorative baskets at your local craft store, and attach any apple decorations you find there onto the handle. Add a large, red napkin to the basket, and a hand-drawn card for your guests, for that extra-special touch!
Photo credit: Jessica.
This dessert table is laden with an assortment of "fresh baked" apple treats -- a must for any apple autumn party!
You can find Fresh-Picked Apple Recipes like these -- plus many more -- here on Spoonful!

I love these darling little apple pies!
For a cute-and-quick dessert at your apple party, simply buy miniature apple pies at your local market or bakery, carefully pop them out of their foil pans, and set them in a cute array on your dessert table. So easy!
Photo credit: Paige.
You can offer your guests a simple treat, fresh from the farm, by adding any apple dessert you like to a mason jar! Top with a swatch of red, gingham fabric cut into a square with pinking shears, and screw on the lids.
This would be a great way to serve our own Apple Crisp Parfait!
Photo credit: Petite Social.
What activity would be better for an apple party than the old-fashioned party game, Bobbing for Apples?
In a large, clean bucket, filled with water, add a number of fresh apples or, as shown here, plastic apples filled with little toys and treats.
With their hands behind their backs, let guests try to bite an apple (or plastic apple stem and leaf). No hands allowed!
Bobbing for apples is much harder than it might seem -- and really fun to watch!
Just remember to have lots of clean towels on hand! You'll need them!
Photo credit: Megan.
At your apple party, be sure to offer guests some apple beverages!
For example, you could make your own batch of delicious Cinnamon Cider!
Or, you could buy small bottles of apple juice or cider, and add your own printable label. As shown here, use raffia to tie on a cinnamon (canela) stick, and encourage guests to mull (warm) their cider at home with the cinnamon - a wonderful drink for a brisk autumn evening!
Photo credit: Kristie.
For this recipe, your kids will find that arranging the sliced apples in a spiral "rose" pattern is the best part! Your guests could make these for a party activity, or make them ahead of time, and offer to your guests. Almost too pretty to eat!
Photo credit: Nicole.
Use scooped-out fresh apples to make a cup -- "cupples" -- for a clever (and edible) way to present your party drinks!
Here, a small scoop of vanilla ice cream, sprinkled with cinnamon, is added to fresh apple cider. The cinnamon "straws" won't work particularly well, but they will add a cinnamony flavor, and make a lovely garnish (and stirrer), nonetheless. Refreshing!

Aren't these apple pops adorable?
To make them yourself, first place each marshmallow on a confectionary stick, and dip in red candy melts. While still warm, sprinkle red sanding sugar, until evenly coated.
Set aside until cooled. Place a mint leaf on the top of the "apple," and insert half of a small pretzel stick, using the pretzel to hold the leaf. If you don't have mint leaves available, you can cut them out from green taffy or fruit leather.
Photo credit: .
To add some rustic charm to your apple party, offer guests apple-frosted sugar cookies in a mason jar! Remember to include a green leaf and brown stem, as shown. So cute!
Photo credit: Jessica.
You can make super cute, bite-size versions of the fall fair treat, caramel-covered apples! These tiny caramel apples are a great party snack.
If you'd like to serve your guests some ever-popular cupcakes at your autumn apple-themed party, here's an easy way to decorate them like apples!
The ultimate activity-and-dessert for a harvest apple party, is to set up your own caramel apple bar! I've learned that food bars -- letting everyone create they own, and add their own toppings -- is a great way for guests to interact, create something delicious, while saving you time preparing your party.
Enjoy your harvest apple autumn party!

Dungeon Crawl is a brand-new quest add-on for Baldur's Gate 2, featuring a dangerous journey through a new set of areas in search of a well-guarded treasure. Two rival factions are already on the trail and you just happen to stumble into the middle of their dispute. Can you survive the quest and learn the secret of Lord Leoncourt's chest?
The Dungeon Crawl mod is based on the Web comic of the same name, written by Kulyok in cooperation with the author. Check out the mod homepage here, the mod's new forum here, and the original comic here.
Summer may soon be over, but Xan is just getting warmed up! Enjoy Xan for BG2, version 6, now featuring a translation into Polish and extended crossmod content with Dungeon Crawl and Romantic Encounters.
Those of you enjoying classic Baldur's Gate can Xan it up with the Xan Friendship for BG1, version 3. This mod is compatible with "true" BG1, or Baldur's Gate played either through Tutu or BGT.
This new version features a Russian translation.
Finally, the Xan BG2 voice pack for BG1 has been updated to version 2, and now supports classic Baldur's Gate.
Xan's friendship path winds ahead! Sixteen Xan-initiated talks, and four more banters for chapters 4, 5, 6 and 7. Available for Tutu and EasyTutu right now - grab it here.
UPDATE: v2 is available, and there is a Mac version to boot!
PPG and closely-affiliated Planewalker Games were well-represented at last week's Game Developer Conference in San Francisco. Broken Hourglass and Cailean NPC composer Rob Howard was on the scene, along with long-time PPG participant and Planewalker designer Katie Susoeff and noted PPG/PWG taskmaster Jason Compton.
Kulyok has updated Xan to version 3. Key features of this new release include:
- Flirts and player-initiated dialogues for ToB- Extra player-initiated dialogues for SoA- A romance-related encounter in Chapter 5(lust chambers)- A quest in Athkatla, starting in Temple District- A quest in Chapter 6, starting at the Underdark Exit- A ToB quest, starting in Amkethran- Player receives Xan's journal in the end of the bonded path- An extra epilogue for the friendship path- Russian translation for the new material- Updated to WeiDU 198- Minor corrections
Grab the newest version here.
If Xan isn't your speed, perhaps bowing to the mighty rule of Tiax is more to your liking? Kulyok has developed the world's first fully bilingual twenty-four hour NPC mod--Tiax, of course. Download him here .
That said, she could hardly not give Xan equal time, so here you will find a BG1-ready soundset for Xan using the new BG2 Xan voice actor.
Enjoy! Or else Tiax will (comedy-insane-gnome-ramble) you.
After a wait that was entirely too long, v4 of BG1UB is now here, and resolves those frustrating issues that you (patiently) wished to have fixed!NEW ADDITIONS

Just Dessert: Guilt-Free Chocolate Cheesecake
Chocolate Cheesecake
Makes: 14 servingsIngredients
1/2 cup crushed graham crackers
2 tablespoons butter, melted
1 envelope unflavored gelatin
3/4 cup fat-free milk
2 8-ounce packages reduced-fat cream cheese, softened
1 8-ounce package fat-free cream cheese, softened
8 ounces fat-free sour cream
1/3 cup sugar
2 teaspoons vanilla
4 ounces bittersweet chocolate, melted and cooled
Chocolate curls
- In a bowl, stir together the graham crackers and butter. Press the mixture into the bottom of an 8-inch springform pan. Chill while preparing the filling.
- In a saucepan, sprinkle the gelatin over the milk; let stand for 5 minutes. Stir over low heat until the gelatin is dissolved. Remove from heat; cool for 15 minutes.
- In a large bowl, beat the cream cheeses with a mixer until smooth. Beat in the sour cream, sugar, and vanilla; gradually beat in the gelatin mixture. Divide the cream cheese mixture in half; gradually stir the melted chocolate into one half.
- Spread half of the chocolate mixture onto the crust. Spoon half of the remaining cream cheese mixture onto the chocolate mixture in small mounds; swirl them together with a butter knife.
- Spread the remaining chocolate mixture on top. Spoon on the remaining cream cheese mixture, and swirl again. Cover; chill for 6 hours or until set.
- Loosen the cake from the pan with a knife before removing the side of the pan. Cut the cake into wedges; top with chocolate curls.

Toss the Eggs
Most cheesecake recipes call for eggs, but using gelatin as a binding agent cuts calories and fat, says Marisa Moore, RD, an American Dietetic Association spokesperson. Bonus: No baking makes this dessert a cinch.
Trim the Fat
The average slice packs 38 grams of fat (22 of them saturated). We cut two-thirds of the fat but didn't nix it altogether, because it delivers that classic creamy, silky texture.
Raise the Bar
"Bittersweet chocolate has less sugar and more antioxidants than milk chocolate," Moore says. Its disease-fighting nutrients help decrease plaque buildup in your arteries and may improve blood pressure.
Top It Off
To create perfect curls, run a vegetable peeler along the edge of a chocolate bar. For a bigger antioxidant boost, Moore suggests using a small mesh strainer to dust the cake with cocoa powder before serving.

This recipe was horrible! I made it at Christmas so we would have a lower fat/sugar option. What a waste of time and money. The recipe isn't sweet enough to even consider the outcome a dessert. It has the strong, tangy taste of cheese and not nearly enough crust nor chocolate taste. I would have come out ahead with a box of fat free/sugar free Jello pudding in a reduced fat pie crust and topped with fat free whipped topping. At least it would have tasted good! Blech!12/27/2011 03:41:26 PM Report Abuse
So 1/14 of an 8inch springform pan - good luck cutting slices that small. Considering the whole pie is 360 degrees, a 1/14th slice is about 25 degrees. That's like two bites.2/10/2011 10:00:55 AM Report Abuse
a 1/14th of the pie. get serious. be realistic call it 1/12th or 1/8th and give me an actual calorie count. they keep reducing the serving to keep the cal's low.9/13/2010 09:49:47 AM Report Abuse
Though I admit I didn't have enough or the right kind of chocolate to make this recipe the way it's supposed to be, I thought this dessert was just okay. However, when a small spoonful is spread onto a graham cracker, it's perfect. :)7/30/2010 08:51:23 PM Report Abuse

According to a study by Hitwise that examined all online search engine queries in the U.S. for July, Wikia Search and Cuil took a beating from Google as the world's most popular search engine.
InfoWorld reports that Wikia Search, from Wikipedia founder Jimmy Wales, managed to wrangle up 0.000079 percent share of the search market in the U.S. at the end of last week. Cuil fared a little better with 0.0070 percent share.
There were high hopes for Cuil when it launched in July, because it was founded by former Google employee, Anna Patterson, and her husband.
But so far neither Cuil nor Wikia Search can hold a candle to Google's 70.77 percent share of the search engine market in the U.S. This makes Google's 10th consecutive record high in monthly search share.

FUSION 2012 arts festival benefits homeless | PHOTOS
Friends United to Shelter the Indigent, Oppressed and Needy (FUSION) held a Moulin Rouge theme art soiree Aug. 1 at the Dumas Bay Centre in Federal Way. (SEE PHOTOS)
Capturing the fun and romance of turn-of-the-century Paris, the event featured an art walk, entertainment, live and silent auctions, and raffle for a seven-day ocean cruise for two. Catered appetizers, wine, beer and espresso were served.
Proceeds benefit FUSION's transitional housing program. The goal this year was to raise $125,000.
FUSION operates 16 transitional homes in Federal Way and Northeast Tacoma, and about 80 percent of clients successfully move on to permanent housing.
This marks the 19th year for the summer arts festival fundraiser.

"I have been crucified with Christ. It is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me."

If I speak in the tongues of men or of angels, but do not have love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and give over my body to hardship that I may boast, but do not have love, I gain nothing.
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
Love never fails.

Lately, I've been dying daily. Denying yourself now in the little things for the sake of what's best in the long run can be a hard walk up the hill. Oh, how each and every bone and muscle of my soul is slowly being twisted one by one. Well, I was exaggerating in saying that. Simply put, it is PAINFUL. Period.
"And calling the crowd to him with his disciples, he said to them, "If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake and the gospel's will save it." [Mark 8:34-35, ESV]
But I have to keep going in this path and my God shall still continually be my ultimate satisfaction. He will always be above everything else. Psalm 37:4 is verse that's always close to my heart. I know, I know, and I hold on to it — He is faithful in keeping His promises. The best is yet to come.

May 24, 2007
The first completely electronic version of NJIT Magazine is now available on the NJIT Website at http://magazine.njit.edu. Featuring articles about leading-edge research at NJIT and other university and alumni news, the issue's new electronic format offers enhancements such as audio files with comments from President Robert A. Altenkirch, Senior Vice President for Research and Development Donald H. Sebastian, and Professor of Physics Dale Gary. Take our short survey. This digital spring NJIT Magazine is one of three 2007 issues, with the winter and fall issues being in the publication's traditional paper format. Everyone on the magazine's mailing list was sent a special postcard announcing the digital issue and asking that readers provide feedback about the digital version."With many institutions publishing electronic magazines, we felt that it was time for NJIT to move in this direction and to evaluate reader response by publishing a digital issue this year," said Jean M. Llewellyn, executive director of university communications. "The electronic format allows us to add exciting multi-media dimensions to a publication that has kept readers abreast of university and alumni news for nearly 50 years." >>

Mullin returning champion in MPs' must-read list
22.12.11 | Charlotte Williams
The third volume of Chris Mullin's memoirs, A Walk-On Part (Profile Books), has been named the number one book MPs would like for Christmas, with Private Eye: The First 50 Years (Private Eye Productions) also making the non-fiction-dominated top 10.
In a survey by Waterstone's and ComRes, the former Labour minister's diaries were chosen by 4% of the 150 MPs who answered the question "Which books would you most like Santa to bring you for Christmas?"—but only Labour MPs selected the title.
It's a story of continuing popularity for Mullin, whose first two volumes of memoirs, Decline and Fall and A View from the Foothills, also published by Profile, were picked by 4% of MPs in 2010.
This year Conservative MPs' favourite book, and in at number two overall, was literary biography Charles Dickens: A Life by Claire Tomalin (Penguin).
Among Liberal Democrats, the most popular titles were Private Eye: The First 50 Years, the A-Z of the satirical magazine's first half century followed by poet Pam Ayres' autobiography, The Necessary Aptitude (Ebury).
Titles with a political flavour appear in third, fourth and fifth spot: Back From the Brink by former chancellor of the exchequer Alistair Darling (Atlantic Books); The Unfinished Revolution by the late former Labour peer Philip Gould (Abacus); and The Conservatives, a history of the Conservative party, by Robin Harris (Bantam Press).
"Newsnight" host Jeremy Paxman, famous for the grillings he gives politicians who appear on the programme, also appears on the list, with his title Empire (Viking) making number six.
Simon Sebag Montefiore's Jerusalem: The Biography (Orion) is at number seven on the list, followed by All Hell Let Loose by Max Hastings (HarperPress), a history of the Second World War, and Private Eye: The First 50 Years.
Thriller White Dog by Peter Temple (Quercus) is the only fiction title making the list, at number 10, though MPs did fill in alternative titles including How I Solved the Euro Crisis by German chancellor Angela Merkel, and Labour's Alternative Economic Plan by shadow chancellor Ed Balls and Labour leader Ed Miliband.

Whats fair about getting hit by four toons in perfect synchronization? Game is over after the 2nd hit because 2 of your team are lying face down. Ive had the unfortunate experience of being 1shot killed by Zin and his "box" (Azin, Xzin....). Boxing, IMHO, would seem to violate rule c4 of the Rules of Conduct... "Using or exploiting errors in design, features which have not been documented, and/or "program bugs" to gain access that is otherwise not available, or to obtain a competitive advantage over other players".

You can do it with 4 players. Use in-game voice chat, and have somebody yell an enemy's name, then say "Go!" On go, everybody casts a chain lightning on that enemy. Bam, people will think you're multiboxing.
"He rapidly switches between 5 wireless keyboards."
*cough* LOL?
You have no friggin idea what you are talking about, have you? You can connect one keyboard and one mouse to several computers at the same time. He presses 'space' on the keyboard, all five characters jump. He presses his main attack keybind, the main character starts casting Chain Lightning, the other three element shammies activate the macro to assist him and cast CL as well, while the resto casts a chain heal.
Easy as pie,. The hard part about multi-boxing is having the dough for it, and the devotion to do it,
As for being an exploit - You guys are just envious that you can't do what he can do. Get your heads outta yer asses and wake up. This is NOT an exploit, that is Blizzard's OFFICIAL stand in the matter.
he is NOT switching between 5 keyboards!!!!! all four toons cast at the exact same time time. i would say he has one keyboard and mouse tied to 4 boxes. which is why they are all the same class.
id be impressed if they were all different classes or even 2. imho this guy is just another loser who figured out how to use his money to gain an advantage.
ban-hammer this sucka!!!!

This simple pillowcase dress is so sweet and easy to make! It comes in seven sizes - 6 months, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. A ribbon or fabric tie is inserted through the casing at the top of the dress and tied on one or both sides. Detailed instructions are included for making the fabric ties and finishing the seams. Dress can be made from two fabric rectangles (photographed on last page of the instructions) or dress can be made with or without the apron, from four fabric rectangles (plus a rectangle for the apron). A vintage doily, hand towel or handkerchief will look beautiful on the front of the dress in place of the apron rectangle - if the vintage piece is too wide, you can trim the sides or make two pleats in the top before you attach it to the dress.
The dress can be worn alone or it will look adorable with a coordinating t-shirt (long or short sleeves), turtleneck or onesie, along with tights or pants underneath the dress. You can also make a shorter version of the dress for a cute shirt! Medium weight cotton fabrics were used for sample dresses.
This seven page PDF e-pattern includes measurements for dress, a detailed materials list, clear instructions written in English and step-by-step photographs.
Copyrights protect this pattern from being reproduced in any media format to be resold. Finished dresses made from this pattern can be sold in limited quantities.
We are a creative mother/daughter team from the Sunshine State. We're always working on new and unique patterns for you!

"Nashville" spoilers for season 2, episode 12 have been revealed by WetPaint on Jan. 7 and it sounds like it is going to be a must-see episode. Titled "Just for What I Am," fans can also expect to see another country music star to appear on the show.
Warning: If you do not want to know "Nashville" season 2, episode 12 spoilers, then stop reading.
The synopsis for season 2, episode 12 reads,
"Scarlett's career is on fire as she sings 'Free' in concert with Zac Brown (guest-starring as himself), but the demands of fame are burning her out. Rayna asks Deacon to help write a much-needed hit for her new album, and it's like old times — perhaps too much. Concert venues are dropping from Juliette's tour and Jeff, her label head, is furious, and Zoey is bruised by Gunnar's inattention when he gets an invitation to co-write from Jay DeMarcus of Rascal Flatts (guest-starring as himself)."
Zac Brown from Zac Brown Band and Jay DeMarcus of Rascal Flatts will be the musical stars this week . But that isn't the only exciting thing happening on "Nashville." Scarlett will have the opportunity to sing "Free" with Zac Brown and her career will reach an all-time high because of it. As exciting as this is for her, she will have mixed emotions because of the price of fame.
Rayna will turn to Deacon for help as she struggles to get her confidence back and Juliette is dealing with the consequences of her affair with Charlie.
"Nashville" season 2, episode 12 will air on Jan. 8.

P. Nuttles Butter Toffee Coconut Peanuts
Description. Deconstructing the Butterfinger into its component parts: decent idea. Using the actual parts, instead of the ersatz orangey "peanut butter" and cocoa-powdery coating of the Butterfinger: even better idea.
Adding superfluous coconut to an already overloaded flavor profile: confusing, but not the dumbest idea we've ever heard.
The result is a honey-roasted-asteroid affair with a vague resemblance to deer pellets.

Friday, Friday, Friday! It doesn't have quite the ring of the "Sunday, Sunday, Sunday!" monster truck show commercials of my youth, but it does mean that the weekend is nigh, and that's what I'm focusing on. Another big perk of the weekend? We spent yesterday trolling the Internet for the most lust-worthy bag sales that we could find, and we've compiled our findings into a nifty little list of what we think you guys should be splurging on this weekend. Without further ado, the bags wait for you after the jump! Extra bonus: they're all under $500 this week!

The awesome thing about both the DPS fandom and the House fandom is that we won't be getting any more canon stuff from DPS or House.
So I think that makes the fandoms even stronger and more creative because now it's up to us to come up with more stories, art, and incites into the characters and relationships that were given to us.
That's just so fucking cool and you're all so fucking great.

Now Ridgefielders can have their cake and eat it—in the morning.
The Cake Box has moved from the Copp's Hill Marketplace on Danbury Road to 1 Big Shop Lane in the space formerly occupied by Nancy O's knitting shop, and expanded its hours and menu offerings.
In addition to the shop's traditional cupcakes, brownies and cakes, customers can now dine on breakfast fare such as scones, muffins and cinnamon rolls during the early morning hours, said co-owner Jordan Gregory.
"Our new location is a little bigger and has the room we need to offer more baked items and a full range of hot beverages," she said. The shop is now open from 7:30 a.m. to 6 p.m. Tuesdays through Saturdays and 10 a.m. - 4 p.m. on Sundays.
What's not changing is how they bake.
"Everything we sell is baked on premises completely from scratch using fresh and natural ingredients," said Gregory.
There are also now café style tables for in-store dining and the beverage menu has also grown to include cappuccino, hot chocolate, latte, chai and gourmet teas, she added.
Gregory, who grew up in Ridgefield, opened the popular cupcake and cake bakery in April 2010 with her partner Robert Byrnes. Both have professional culinary credientials and industry experience. In addition to their in-store baked goods, Byrnes and Gregory accept orders for party favors and wedding cakes.

MIT initiative

Summer camps in Haiti
Dara Carr, Henkel Tallaght employee and former UCD student, applied for funding through the initiative and received €4,000 on behalf of UCDVO to support its activities in Haiti. This is the third year in a row that UCDVO has been supported by the Henkel 'MIT' programme.
"We are extremely grateful to Henkel for their continued support of our work in Haiti through their 'Make an Impact Tomorrow' programme. This year we travelled back to the Gros Marne region for one month, to continue our summer camps, providing local children with an opportunity to learn through play and be exposed to new activities and approaches to learning. The energy and positivity that has been created in this community has been exceptional and UCDVO are grateful to Henkel's ongoing support for our work in Haiti."
The group, made up of UCD Volunteers Oversees (UCDVO), offers students and alumni of University College Dublin the opportunity to contribute their time and skills to development projects overseas. For the past two years, the group has been supported by Henkel's 'MIT' initiative. Henkel, the manufacturer of many well-known household brands such as Pritt, Sellotape, Unibond, Loctite, Right Guard and Schwarzkopf, encourages its employees to take part in its employee engagement programme which enables employees of the company to perform volunteer activities in their free time, for the benefit of worthy projects.
Volunteers use the camps, which are held throughout the month of July, as an opportunity to highlight to the children and their parents the benefit of education and also to teach the children about basic hygiene. Basic meals are also provided for children at the camp and children and local counselors are thought how to treat minor illnesses and injuries.
"The summer camps are an invaluable way of reaching out to the local community," said Dara Carr. "Through the camps, we are able to reach out to over 700 children and since we started the camps in 2005, we have seen a dramatic increase in school enrolments and a greater demand from the community for educational facilities. More than 320 children have enrolled in the school since our summer camps began. "
For more information and to keep updated on their progress, visit: www.ucdvo.org.
About the Henkel MIT Initiative
The Henkel 'Make an Impact on Tomorrow' ('MIT') employee engagement initiative enables Henkel's employees to perform volunteer activities in their free time for the benefit of local charity projects.
Support may take the form of in-kind, product and financial donations. Employees can also volunteer for activities on full-pay, but outside of their company duties. Since its inception in 1998, the MIT Initiative has sponsored 4,574 projects worldwide and contributed more than £6 million (€9 million) in 105 countries.

A Campbellsville man has been arrested and charged with assaulting another man.
DeMichael Calhoun, 39, of Bell Court, was arrested on Friday at 10:53 a.m.
According to Calhoun's arrest citation, he allegedly assaulted another man by punching him in the face.
Court records state that the man had an apparent serious injury to his right eye and needed medical treatment. The man's eye was swollen, court records state, and bleeding steadily. Records state that the man's eye socket was possibly broken.
He has denied any wrongdoing, and says the complaint has been filed as an attack against him for gaining support for one of his bills.
U.S. Rep. Ed Whitfield, R-Ky., has become the subject of an ethics investigation.
According to a news release from Whitfield's office, several lawmakers recently filed an ethics complaint against him with the House Ethics Committee.
Even though Kentucky's driver's licenses aren't entirely compliant with federal regulations, Taylor Countians' licenses are still valid and residents don't need to do anything.
Efforts are ongoing to ensure the licenses become compliant, and changes are being considered to the way the state issues them.
While the number of overdoses in Kentucky seems to be staying steady, the number of those who died from heroin use has increased exponentially.
In Taylor County, the number of overdoses has also stayed steady, and local law enforcement officials say they are always working to eliminate illegal drugs from the streets.
An Office of Drug Control Policy report states that there were 1,007 drug-related overdose deaths in 2013, compared to 1,004 in 2012.
Campbellsville Fire & Rescue personnel were called to the Taylor County Judicial Center on Tuesday afternoon at about 4 p.m. after a sprinkler was broken and water began to flood the building.
An inmate allegedly broke the sprinkler while being housed in a holding cell.
Water flowed at 35 gallons a minute and spread to courtrooms, hallways and stairwells.
Officials at the scene said the inmate will face felony criminal mischief charges.
A Marion County man has been arrested and charged following a police chase that started in Bradfordsville and ended in a wooded area in Mannsville on Monday night.
Marion County Sheriff Jimmy Clements said a bench warrant had been issued for Ricky L. Garrett, 28, of St. Ann Street in Lebanon after he failed to appear for a probation revocation hearing.
When students head back to school in a few days, they won't just be learning their core subjects. They will also learn to become leaders.
Students at Campbellsville and Taylor County schools will participate in the Leader in Me program this year, based on author Stephen Covey's book "The 7 Habits of Highly Effective People." The habits are listed in a sidebar to this story.
Most people plan what will happen to their children, property and other personal belongings after their death. But few might think to specify what is to happen to their email and other digital assets, from their Facebook and Twitter accounts to their online photo galleries.
"What do you do with that?" Tony Smith, who serves as the IT specialist for Taylor County government, said. The Uniform Law Commission might have an answer.
A dozen of Kentucky's new laws could soon become model legislation for other states. And, Taylor County's legislators were involved with three of the 12 bills becoming law.
According to the Kentucky Legislative Research Commission, the Council of State Governments will consider adopting 12 of Kentucky's new laws at its annual meeting this month.

What does love mean
Hard and soft times right?
To hold and be held
But when do you love
When do you feel
What can you say
When you dont know the way
Am I a Faker?
Am I a Fraud?
I just dont know
I feel clawed
So should I leave
Till Im found
Or should I stay
And make not a sound
Cause if theres 2 who i feel for
But one can give no more
And The other as someone who feels the same
When will I know
Cause if their hurt I'm to blame
I hope soon it will show
What I shoul do

Five iPhone apps to consider
The five iPhone applications I use every day:
- Byline
An excellant Google Reader client, perfect for reading the news during the commute to work.
- Instacast
For sync free podcast listening its hard to beat Instacast, I wish I'd found it sooner!
- Camera+
Apple should just buy this app to replace the built in camera application, its that good.
- Tweetbot
So much better than the official twitter client it isn't funny!
- Analytics Pro
The best Google Analytics client I've found so far, very handy for checking up on your sites on the go!
You can leave a response, or trackback from your own site.

The Detroit Tigers might need pitching more than any team in baseball. This is why I'm surprised that reports are starting to surface that they've pulled themselves out of all Zack Greinke trade talks. I know the Tigers need pitching and Zack Greinke is one of the best in the league, so it made some sense both teams would talk about this kid.
Clearly the Milwaukee Brewers wanted the world for Greinke, and I figured the Tigers would pull the trigger simply because they've dumped all this money into their offense and need an arm. It's even more clear the Detroit Tigers do not want to mortgage their future to get Greinke, or were afraid he would be too expensive- or wouldn't even sign a contract extension to stay in Detroit.
With the Tigers still in the race, I'm not ready to say they're not going to make a move. There's still a TON of pitching on the market, and I suspect they'll try and take another shot at Chicago Cubs Right hander Matt Garza, up an offer for Cubs' right hander Ryan Dempster, take a harder look at Francisco Liriano or Houston Astros left hander Wandy Rodriguez.
This team needs a second horse because Justin Verlander can't throw every game in the postseason. Will they get one? We'll find out as MLB Rumors continue to truck towards the MLB trade deadline.

Product DescriptionAll mountain bike frames are built one at a time, not in batches. Each one is unique - built for a specific rider with specific needs.
Also invisible but significant: A machined reinforcing sleeve is pressed and welded in to line the top of the seat-tube, effectively butting the top few inches of the seat-tube. Other builders merely drop in an aluminum shim.
Tube dimensions and geometry are chosen specifically for each rider, so whether you're five-two or a Clydesdale, your bike will give you the performance you expect from a Kish.

Strengths: It was made for me, eye catching, no one else has this bike!
Weaknesses: ....
Bottom Line:
I used to have trouble finding a bike that fit me. Either my seatpost was way in the air, or the top tube was rammed up my jimmy. Jim made all of that go away, and it fits like a glove. + lead time was 2 months and I was able to got to SLO ride for the day and get fit by JK himself. What a deal

Weaknesses: Lasts so long I can't justify buying another!
Bottom Line:
Dealing with the builder is super easy, Jim is very knowledgeable and is very good at fitting you and designing the frame with your preferences in mind. What I asked for is exactly what I ended up with. This bike cost just a bit more than some generic made-in-Taiwan bike but is worth double!

Bike Setup: Kish steel single speed, Paul hubs, Avid BB7's, fox
Date Reviewed: November 17, 2007
Strengths: Steel Single Speed harttail, 15.75 inch minimum chainstays and still tire clearance for a real 2.3" tire. 3.9 pound 17 inch frame is super responsive. The handling like all 4 of my Kish bikes is superb... The bike handles like it's on rails. Reynolds 853 tubes have proven to be very dent resistent. The bike is built to the exact size specifications I requested. I couldn't be happier with this bike.
