Hi all. Early planning stages for a trip to Amalfi Coast area and wanted some tips /comments. Looking for best towns to spend a few days in, possible itinerary tips, accommodation ideas for locations that don't have 150 stairs etc. etc. Look forward to hearing your experiences.
We are flying into Cagliari and were hoping to rent a car at the airport, tour Sardinia and then drop the car off at Santa Teresa di Gullari where we will take the ferry to Corsica.
The challenge seems to be that we are unable to find a car rental w/pick up/drop off between these two points.
Surely, we can be the first to have this itinerary!
Anyone have any suggestions?
Thanks in advance
I'm flying into Olbia Sardinia for a cycling trip. You can't take gas canisters on planes so I'm wondering if anyone knows of a shop in Olbia that is likely to sell threaded canisters for back packing stoves. If anyone can help I'll be very grateful. Thanks Keith.
May I please have some suggestions; will be travelling to Milan on Sept-18 and I need to be in Barcelona for the 21.
Therefore I have plenty of questioning what should I do.
To start i don't believe staying in Milan to long unless there are places outside the city that our worth visiting.
Maybe travel by bus and visit some places on the way to Barcelona.... so many ...
Have a low budget.
Thank you much for your help
We're a family group of 4 who are going to be landing in Rome on Sep 8 and leaving from Milan on Sep 17. the brad itinerary we have in mind is 3/4 days in Rome, take the train or drive to Florence, 3 days to see Florence and drive around in Tuscany, drive to lake Como, stay a day and take the train to Milan, fly out from Milan.
This is a first trip for 3 of us and the idea is to have a balance between the culture and and countryside and we love to drive. Question is does this itinerary seem…
is there an italy pass to travel across italy? we will be there for 7 days.
Hi all,
I'm considering walking Alta Via 1 in September (potentially 12th -21st).
If I go ahead, I am planning to do it on my own. So my main question – is this a good idea?! I am a reasonably experience hiker, fit, strong, determined, confident in my ability and a head for heights. I've walked long distance trails, but not on my own. Are there lots of other people doing the trail at this time of year? This would reassure me somewhat, knowing that other people are fairly nearby at most times!
I'll be in Milan for a week. I'd love to hear suggestions on what to do while I'm there. Mainly sightseeing, walks, or nice digital nomad cafes.
Thanks for any help!
I'm having trouble getting info on this. Any one know how many buses a day to nice from Florence. Or any advice on how to get there.
I'll be traveling from Malta to Italy somewhere around the end of October/early November. Was originally going to fly into Naples to explore the Amalfi coast region before heading to Rome. If my budget allows at the time I was thinking of flying into Catani and taking a week to ten days to travel via land up the West Coast to Naples instead. Looking for any suggestions on an itinerary/places to visit that would cater to a backpacker budget for that region. Most likely will be…

Hidden Mickeys - Disney World
By Healthy Life Labs
Open iTunes to buy and download apps.
What is a Hidden Mickey?
A Hidden Mickey is an image of Mickey Mouse concealed in the design of a Disney attraction or resort. Traditionally, it takes the shape of Mickey's head and ears in silhouette (one large circle with two smaller circled on top), but Hidden Mickeys can also take on many forms.
The most common Hidden Mickey is three circles that form Mickey's head and ears. Other images include a side profile of Mickey's face and head as found on Splash Mountain hidden in the clouds, a side profile of his entire body as an ink drop discovered on a book in Spaceship Earth, or even a three-dimensional Mickey hidden on Test Track. Sometimes, just Mickey's gloves, handprints, shoes or ears appear. Even his name or initials in unusual places are discovered as Hidden Mickeys.
Disney Imagineers have been cleverly concealing Hidden Mickeys throughout Walt Disney attractions for decades. Can you find them all? Or maybe be the first to discover a new Hidden Mickey!
Bonus – We have found other hidden Disney characters at Walt Disney World including Donald, Goofy, & Minnie! Find a tribute to Mr. Toad on The Adventures of Winnie the Pooh, formerly Mr. Toad's Wild Ride. And more!
Now you can find over 100 Hidden Mickeys at Walt Disney World. Guide your way through each park using our Hidden Mickey finder. Carefully detailed descriptions will help you discover each location where Disney cast members have placed Hidden Mickeys.
Enhance your vacation experience by finding some of the hidden Magic at Walt Disney World!

Needs Some WORK!!!!!
Me and My wife have been big Disney Fans for a long time. We have checking out hidden Mickey's for years and this maker of this APP needs to have some type of contact page to help submit hidden items to them. They lack in the knowledge of the them.
It needs work
Having knowledge of Hidden Mickey's of Walt Disney World. This app is good. I feel it needs a update! I feel that the app is missing many neat HM's in all sections and parks!
Needs more
So the parks and such are okay, but first of all there are like none listed! Plus there are no hotel mickeys, cruise line, downtown Disney and other Disney places! This was a complete waste of two bucks!!

before i start criticizing anything id like to get the problem out there and see if there is a fix.... i installed the game and it had a 'steam' association exe on the disc... with that in mind it went ahead and installed steam for whatever reason considering that the game itself will/should run without the aid of a steam account or association... that said i went with the flow and started playing without a hitch at 'ultra' setting.. ( radeon 7770 gig card and 4 gigs of good ram in the system )..until the 28th hour when it crashed.. right to the desktop. ok... this happens.. i restarted the game and a few more minutes into it another crash...i uninstalled and r/r the game 5 times afterwards. and updated everything including the milk in the fridge...@!@
it continued to crash... then....when it was the darkest time it ran for 90 some hours AFTER i turned down the card to medium... first question why should i have to take a %50 cut in the card just to play the same game i was playing at ultra a few hours ago?... ok... so i played another 90 odd hours with it at 1/2 gas... guess what... steam updates when i go to play again and it started crashing in 20 minutes then 10 then 5 and then it would load the splash screen then nada. there are some discrepancies as to what the game came with and that was nothing.. no folder no instructions and why the steam associated exe?...just the disc and that's it... there's nothing wrong/defective with my system nor my card... im placing the blame on either the disc or windows xp... this was a suggestion my son gave.. he has a steam skyrim which he bought on line.. my other son has a disc he bought from future shop...Read more ›
However, Skyrim has a few flaws in the software. In many places the colours seem to flicker and flash especially when there is high contrast like bright sun. There are a few places where the game quits for no reason and a google search shows that it is a game flaw that happens to many. Also some of the quests get very repetitive. For example to raise gold you can endlessly play the companions quests and are given about 4 possible scenarios in random locations. The repetitive part is the quest givers say the same speech every time even though you have done that same dragon hunt with the same guy 6 times. I also find some of the chit chat when you interact with someone a bit wordy and again repetative.
All in all I recommend this game for someone with patience to learn it, who enjoys a vast role playing game with lots of action. Not just for teens as I am close on a senior and still get hours of enjoyment from it.
For SKYRIM, Bethesda will only take up 6GB on your HDD and with that the game designers created a literally endless world, with extremely long drawing distances, high mountains, passing clouds, dark forests, foliage moving to the wind and water trickling in streams. Everything you see in the horizon is actually accessible. Now, compare that to the ...21GB Rage takes up for a much, much more small and visually limited world to realize what was accomplished with SKYRIM. The world is absolutely huge - and it feels real.
The graphics are gorgeous, almost realistic. Sure, I could do with somewhat more detailed textures when it comes to clothing (they look much better in the inventory than when worn) as well as a more bold color palette (besides grasses, there are also colorful wildflowers, Bethesda); however, the imaginative design of the items and equipment, the natural movements of the characters and the way light and shadows play with each other all the time more than make up for these shortcomings. The game is as beautiful as it is deep and endless.Read more ›

My poor, sweet neglected blog!
About a year ago I was writing all the time and I was loving it. For at least a few years, "We're All Made of Stars" was regularly updated. In 2015 I was also very busy working on a book and pitching it to publishers and agents. I was doing some really fun freelance writing as well contributing to a website and co-hosting a radio show.
And then life happened, and here I am, almost a year later. At the end of last year I had queued up quite a few re-posts (or even re-re-posts) but the last real blog post I did was last November. And even before that the last real-real blog post I did was last August!
So here I am, nearly a year later, and I find myself on the hazy, muggy edges of another strange, weird summer. So I thought it was time to update my neglected blog, and write a bit about my wild, crazy, cosmic life...

Sunflowers are beautiful, easy to grow, and attract many kinds of birds to the garden. This is a guide about growing sunflowers.
Sunflowers are perhaps the most cheerful and endearing native flower in the United States. For centuries, Native American tribes have harvested these versatile flowers for a variety of nutritional, medicinal and spiritual purposes. Today, they are grown on virtually every continent in the world. Here are some helpful hints for growing and harvesting your own.
When purchasing seeds, keep in mind that most commercial varieties of sunflowers seeds are hybrids. This won't make a difference when consuming the seeds, but if your planning on collecting seed for future stock, look for heirloom varieties instead. Seeds should be planted at a depth of 2 inches and spaced 12 inches apart in rows spaced 24 inches apart. Tall varieties or those with extra large heads will need more space. Germination occurs quickly, usually within 7-10 days (often sooner). Most varieties reach maturity in 80-90 days.
The twenty-day period leading up to harvest is the most critical time in the development of sunflower seeds. Avoid placing water stress on plants during this time (either too much or too little) and keep soil moisture levels as consistent as possible.
Non-Insect Pests: Birds and Squirrels love sunflower seeds as much as the gardeners that grow them. Because sunflower seeds mature right around the time these critters are gearing up for fall, your sunflower crop can quickly become ransacked if not protected. Cover sunflower heads with nylon stockings, cheesecloth or paper bags to make robbing the seeds more difficult. Avoid growing your sunflowers near fences or low buildings that offer quick access to squirrels.
Insect Pests: Sunflower moths (the larvae), aphids and white flies are the primary insect pests to watch out for. Sunflowers need bees for pollination, so the use of chemical insecticides isn't recommended. Aphids and white flies can usually be kept under control by periodically spraying your sunflowers with a strong jet of water. Delaying planting until late May or early June will reduce the likelihood of sunflower moth problems.
Any tips for growing sunflowers?
By Billy
I agree, just lots of sun. Sunflowers are super easy, you shouldn't have a big problem.
We live on a hill, good breeze & wind all the time and our soil is a bit on the clay-ey side. I just plant the seeds, water them every now & then and basically leave them alone. They grow beautifully. The ones I planted on Mar. 3rd are about 4" tall now and doing great, even with a couple of late season light frosts.
Yes, they're quite easy! Good luck & have fun with them!
Photo Description
I tried to grow these 20 years ago, but a big storm took them away. Now I have been growing the biggest I have ever seen for the last two years. I love watching them grow; it is fabulous.

I have entered a competition to grow the tallest sunflower. At the moment it is three feet, but has started to come into flower. Will this stop the plant from growing taller?
It will probably stop now. You will probably get more blooms and they will be a bit taller.
Here's a guide if you would like to try again: http://www.sunflowerguide.com/giant-sunflower.html
I feed all birds and they always leave me a gift of Sunflowers. I have hundreds of sunflowers, just from birdseed.

I have been growing very special sunflowers for two years now. They seem to really take off as soon as I put the seed in the ground. It is almost magical.
Tips for growing sunflowers from the ThriftyFun community.
Plant them in full sun.
Plant seeds 1 inch deep and 6 inches apart (or according to package directions). Water well after planting.
Seedlings usually germinate within a week or two and take 80-90 days to reach maturity.
For taller plants that flower earlier, start them in 4 inch peat pots indoors.
Seedlings are usually thinned to 12-18 inches apart, but can be plants more closely together in containers.
Russian Giants, Kong, and Mammoth varieties grow as tall as 15 feet and have flower heads as large as 20" in diameter. You'll need a pot at least 15" inches deep and 15" in diameter (or larger) to grow these giants.
Sunflower roots grow deep and spread wide so make sure you use a large enough container.
Tall plants may need staking.
Keep the soil in your containers moist and fertilize them with a 1/2 strength organic liquid fertilizer every two weeks.
Sunflowers need lots of water (plants 6 feet tall can consume 8 gallons per week), but over-watering them can cause deformed seed heads. Use well-drained soil and keep the soil in your containers evenly moist. Water seedling deeply once per week for the first month so they develop deep roots. After that, water your sunflowers lightly every day.
Good Luck!

I have found feeding your flowers with a nice solution of plant food makes your blooms look wonderful. . .
Are sunflowers perennials? Do they re-grow each year or do you have to plant new seeds every year?
Hardiness Zone: 6a
By Mark from Birmingham, MI
While most sunflowers are annuals and the seeds have to be replanted every year, there ARE some very similar to sunflowers that are perennials, depending on the SIZE that you want. Check out by googling or ask etc to ask what is similar to sunflowers but are perennials. I know that helleniums (I am not sure of the spelling), and I think Mullins are similar, if you want tall ones. But if you want true sunflowers, you must plant every year! (But they are sure worth it in beauty!)
Sunflowers are annuals, but do self-seed! Mulliens look like overgrown Foxglove, are annuals too, and also self-seed prolifically. They are not nearly as pretty as sunflowers, and can be quite invasive and do only come in yellow! Helleniums are family members and some are perennials. There are so many beautiful Sunflowers, it is just fun to plant different colors/versions each year. They are varied from creamy whites, to beautiful deep burgundies, even multi-colored!
First of all it looks like you don't have any drainage holes in your "pots" and they are water logged and very sun deprived. They should be short, sturdy, and dark green. They need dryer soil and much much more light. I think you need to chuck these and start over.
They do need direct sunlight. When starting plants indoors like that, it's helpful to put a "grow" light right over them so they don't have to stretch so far to find sunlight.
Hardiness Zone: 9b
Marcia from Alturas, FL
There are a couple of different insects that specifically go after the seeds on sunflower plants. One is the Sunflower Seed Weevil (the Red or Gray variety), and the other is the Sunflower Midge.
In the larvae stage, Sunflower Seed Weevils have cream or yellow colored bodies that are legless and c-shaped. The larvae usually emerge in mid to late summer to feed on the seeds. There are several non-chemical methods used by commercial growers here in the Midwest to control the weevils. They include yearly crop rotation, early planting, fall plowing to destroy over wintering larvae and trap cropping.
If you're are not familiar with the term, trap cropping is planting a border consisting of a row or two of "bait" sunflowers around the perimeter of your main sunflower crop. These "bait" sunflowers should be planted so they bloom 10-14 days ahead of the rest of your crop. The emerging larvae will naturally migrate toward the first sunflowers that bloom and produce pollen. When they become concentrated in one area of the field, it is easier and more economical to manage them. When your trap crop becomes infested with weevils, you can then spray them with the appropriate chemical control. What you spray will depend on whether or not you're going to sell the sunflowers as cut flowers, or for consumption by animals, etc. Laws regarding insecticide use on commercial flowers can vary from state to state, so I would contact your local county extension agency for more information on the rules governing the commercial growing and selling of sunflowers in Florida.
The Sunflower Midge larva has a small (0.07 inch) cream colored body that is tapered to the front and rear. The larvae emerge in early July to feed on the sunflowers' developing heads and seeds.
Most conventional insecticides are not effective against the Sunflower Midge, because the larvae crawl inside the seed soon after hatching so they are protected from topically applied chemicals. By delaying planting until late May or early June, you can significantly reduce the amount of crop loss due to midge damage. Again, your country extension agent should be able to give you more detailed advice on controlling these pests in your area.
Good luck!
Cover them with panty hose.
I agree with the panty hose. Please don't use any sprays, because some of beautiful song birds may eat the seeds or the bugs.
My sunflower just keeps growing! The head hasn't come out yet and I am wondering if there is anything I should do to ensure that the head gets big as well. I've tied it up loosely to the garage so it won't fall over.
hi when my kids were in school we grew sunflowers that were 13-14 feet high...the flower will follow...don't worry
It looks like a "maximimus", or something similar to that name...lol
We grow regular sunflowers by the acre here and we just use ferilizers, 10-10-10.
But in my small gardens and flower beds i plant these also and i use the above fertilizer and every now and then a dose of the liquid for flowers. And the heads get so big and heavy if it is not tied to something it will bend and break.
But yours looks like it is gonna be a normal size head. This is what you want.
Will you post a picture of it when it does bloom???
I am a sunflower fanatic....lol.

Wii FPS < Duck Hunt
Wii FPS < Duck Hunt
Sep 01, 2007 10:40PM PST
As I try to blaze thew Metroid Prime 3 so I could post my review before the end of the weekend is over I find that I have this horrible feeling that I have played this game a hundred times before. Now I have played Red Steel and Call of Duty 3 But those weren't the games that brought upon this feeling. I suddenly feel like I have been taken back in time back to the days of the Super Nintendo. Then it hit me. I came to the realization that the FPS genre on the Wii platform cannot get anymore advanced then Duck Hunt. As you remove the hand and the gun the screen and imagine the gun (as in the Wiimote) in your hand and solely focus on the cross hair on the screen you find yourself playing Duck Hunt 1.5 with a 3D environment to interact with. This might just be the curse of the Wii for the hardcore audience. You cannot deny that it is interesting that even though its been many years since Duck Hunt was seen on store shelfs but some of the game play elements can still bee seen on Nintendo hardware today and in there modern games.

Skip to comments.Pope attacks mega-salaries and wealth gap in peace message
Posted on 12/12/2013 7:11:26 AM PST by what's up
click here to read article
I believe the Pope is speaking to some people (I know of) who make $300,000 annually with $600,000 in bonuses whose families' lives are in shambles because they work so much and for what end result? More stuff?
He's speaking to countries whose people's lives are so enslaved to their government with no freedom and no access to anything but another day of misery.
He's asking people to change their hearts. To reflect on what is TRULY important in life. To love our neighbor as ourselves or MORE stuff?
"One also sees the need for policies which can lighten an excessive imbalance between incomes. We must not forget the Churchs teaching on the so-called social mortgage, which holds that although it is lawful, as Saint Thomas Aquinas says, and indeed necessary that people have ownership of goods,[12] insofar as their use is concerned, they possess them as not just their own, but common to others as well, in the sense that they can benefit others as well as themselves.[13]"
This paragraph is as alien the American tradition as you could get. It is the antithesis of the Declaration of Independence. Washington, Madison, Jefferson, Hamilton, etc would be horrified by this alien ideology.
He's a head of state and he's Pope. Part of his job description is to have wisdom to convey Christian values.
Isn't part of what he's doing is to encourage discussion of his values? A discussion of greed is not inappropriate.
I must have missed the part in that scripture about "implementing government policies"...
More translation errors? I don't think so. The Pope is clearly a socialist. He is not a totalitarian socialist. He thinks there should be a residual private sector of taxi cab drivers and lawn service companies. Otherwise, business is to be regulated for the common good as determined by the government. We don't have a good word for this. The old word is fascism. The appearance of private property with control being exercised by government. Mussolini's Italy, Franco's Spain and Peron's Argentina are now, once again, the exemplars of Catholic political economy.
He's also asked for Gov'ts to adopt policies to allow for more "equality".
If he were just calling on individuals to give to the poor I'd be all for it. But he's asking for MORE activist Gov't...which is just what Obama wants.
Somehow, it just escapes leftists that the same species - humans - who inhabit these positions of government that they seek to empower
are the ones they are decrying as "greedy" outside the government.
The difference is, those in government have the legal use of deadly force at their disposal.
Did he specifically mention America?
From your use of the word "greed" and the pope's comments it appears that neither one of you knows jack about economics, wealth creation or human motivation.
Had a recent discussion of "greed" with a libinlaw.
Her position was emotional, that all greed was bad.
She was livid that I insisted that we would be instilling the virtue of self-interest in our children and recognizing the systemic value of individuals acting in self-interest.
In other words, we'd be teaching them "economics".
I have the same advice for the Pope as I did for Henry Blodget:
Why dont you set a good example for the rest of us and donate all but a subsistence portion of the Vatican wealth to the poor? You know, do your own small part toward achieving equality. Start with making yourself poor first, and then maybe youll have a basis for the necessary moral superiority to tell the rest of us how much money we should be allowed to keep.
And he might want to rethink the proposition that economic systems cause greed rather than human nature. When he says stuff like that he sounds like a foolish left-wing undergrad.
Regarding what the Pope should focus on: The Pope should certainly be able to walk and chew gum at the same time. IF the Gospel message is that we need big government to establish social justice in the world, thats what we should do. On the other hand, if that is not the Gospel message, then the question is how could the Pope be so wrong?
Greed is a negative word and frequently used to misinform the ignorant. For example, if you work your backside off to get ahead and make a decent amount of money, the government (and the pope apparently) calls you "greedy" On the other hand if you're a government demagogue who has never worked a day of your life in the private sector and you're calling for those who do work to "put some skin in the game" you're not greedy even though you're stealing from those who earned it. Likewise, if you're a worthless drone who by choice sits around, drunk, high, watching daytime TV, smoking dope and cigarettes, scratching off lotto tickets and squirting our dependent children to get a bigger check, why then you're not greedy at all.
The use of the word greed in the context that the pope and some of the posters here use it is an absolute moral inversion of the reality.
As the wife of "The Jerk" said,
it's not the money,
it's all the STUUUUFFFFF.
If this were true nobody would get to heaven. I try to live a Godly life and the longer I walk on a Christian path the more I realize that the last thing I want is for God to give me what I deserve. I need a Savior. And God, in his grace, has given me one. God has promised to treat me as Jesus' deserves and to wash away my sin. It is the only hope, but a hope available to anyone if they will only reprent and accept Jesus with all their heart.
Now, now, now. This is simply a very bad translation of what he actually said... /s
Capitalism helps the poor no matter where one lives.
Did he condemn capitalism or was it unbridled consumerism?
He attacked the "widening gap between those who have more and those who must be content with the crumbs", calling on governments to implement "effective policies" to guarantee people's fundamental rights, including access to capital, services, educational resources, healthcare and technology.
What the Pope exactly said:
Moreover, if on the one hand we are seeing a reduction in absolute poverty, on the other hand we cannot fail to recognize that there is a serious rise in relative poverty, that is, instances of inequality between people and groups who live together in particular regions or in a determined historical-cultural context. In this sense, effective policies are needed to promote the principle of fraternity, securing for people who are equal in dignity and in fundamental rights access to capital, services, educational resources, healthcare and technology so that every person has the opportunity to express and realize his or her life project and can develop fully as a person.
The MSM strikes again.
"One also sees the need for policies which can lighten an excessive imbalance between incomes. "
Direct marxist quote from your link...
The founders of our country wrote of the pursuit of happiness - not the guarantee of happiness.
One person stays on govt assistance their whole life. Another becomes an engineer or doctor. NOW, the pope wants policies to minimize the results of those life choices... ?
That does it. He's a SOCIALIST.
I don't care how you try to parse or justify that one. He's done in my book. A leftist socialist totalitarian centralizer.
WHO gets to decide his "better distribution of income?" Precisely who is the elevated superior omniscient decider of "better"?
G-d would not elevate decisions above individuals to superior individuals. That's slavery and antithetical to the prime message of Exodus.
I reject this Pope.
"In before 'The Pope Was Mistranslated'".
This is starting to get tiresome.
Rooters, eh? I guess I'll wait for an accurate translation.
We already have too much Gov't intrusion...the Pope is calling for even more. This is not capitalism.
You only made it "in" by one and a half minutes.
I'm going to start using that!
The Pope actually says:
In a particular way, the agricultural sector is the primary productive sector with the crucial vocation of cultivating and protecting natural resources in order to feed humanity. In this regard the continuing disgrace of hunger in the world moves me to share with you the question: How are we using the earths resources? Contemporary societies should reflect on the hierarchy of priorities to which production is directed. It is a truly pressing duty to use the earths resources in such a way that all may be free from hunger. Initiatives and possible solutions are many, and are not limited to an increase in production. It is well known that present production is sufficient, and yet millions of persons continue to suffer and die from hunger, and this is a real scandal. We need, then, to find ways by which all may benefit from the fruits of the earth, not only to avoid the widening gap between those who have more and those who must be content with the crumbs, but above all because it is a question of justice, equality and respect for every human being. In this regard I would like to remind everyone of that necessary universal destination of all goods which is one of the fundamental principles of the Churchs social teaching. Respect for this principle is the essential condition for facilitating an effective and fair access to those essential and primary goods which every person needs and to which he or she has a right.
The Pope speaks about "access" and not guarantees of goods.
Many people on this thread love to just jump on board when it comes to the Pope and do not do their due diligence when it come to the source of these supposed statements like they would if it was attributing statements to their guy or gal. Truly a double standards put on display here.
Where does he ask for government intervention specifically in http://www.vatican.va/holy_father/francesco/messages/peace/documents/papa-francesco_20131208_messaggio-xlvii-giornata-mondiale-pace-2014_en.html ?
Here is the actual words of the Pope:
Really? Gov't policies to promote fraternity? To secure access to capital?
Sounds pretty socialistic to me.
"Did he condemn capitalism or was it unbridled consumerism?"
It is embarrassing watching folks try and defend this Popes holier than thou, and STUPID pronouncements.
So let me see if I understand this, the Pope has the power to see into people's hearts and judge how they spend THIER MONEY? Tell Scarlet, why isn't the Pope condemning totalitarian governments?
Seriously, I'm beyond tired of this socialist sounding pope making one dumb statement after another.
Where is this in the words of the Pope's message?
Here's the thing. Given the controversy these comments have created, and now that they seem to have been repeated, would it not make sense for an institution as influential as the Vatican to release the Pope's thoughts in the world's major languages, approved by his office?
I'll go and look. How about his office releasing those words directly, as I suggest in #88, for the reasons therein?
When the government helped the Katrina victims or any people who suffer from a natural disaster or famine is that turning away from capitalism?
Thanks for posting that.
It's clear to anyone (who desires truth over personal agenda) who reads the text you posted, what he actually said and what Reuters says he said are two vastly different things.
It will go ignored though, by those who enjoy lapping up what services like Reuters offers when it suits their agenda, e.g., lambasting the Pope.
I can think of a whole bunch of nations where there are policies needed to lighten the excessive imbalance between incomes. Like allowing private ownership in communist countries which I assume you would be for.
I am not sure how pushing for this type of policy would be socialist in that circumstance.
People do not have an inherent "right" to primary goods, capital access, healthcare access or the other items the Pope mentioned.
Many people will not have "access" to capital because of lousy choices. My access to capital is dependent on hard work. Not everyone works...Gov't should not be involved in guaranteeing them access to capital...or healthcare...or whatever other "primary goods" a Gov't deems necessary.
It is released directly on the Vatican web site which no one who wants to hear what they want to hear is going to visit.
Put the following sentence in your own words: "they possess them as not just their own, but common to others as well, in the sense that they can benefit others as well as themselves.[13]"
What do you think that says?
?"In this sense, effective policies are needed to promote the principle of fraternity, securing for people who are equal in dignity and in fundamental rights access to capital, services, educational resources, healthcare and technology so that every person has the opportunity to express and realize his or her life project and can develop fully as a person." - Point five, paragraph two.
Who is to implement the 'effective policies' of which the Pontiff speaks? It appears the cruz of the argument lies here. What is your opinion?
Anyway, the Pope is not talking about natural disasters. He is calling on Governments to provide access to healthcare. That's not a one time deal. That's entitlement.
Everyone seems to be getting sucked in by Reuters implying that the Pope it talking to the United States exclusively. There are plenty of communist and totalitarian regimes in the word that his words apply to more aptly.
"Pope attacks mega-salaries and wealth gap in peace message"
More Blah Blah Blah from this Pope. Typical libby platitudes without any actual recommendations. Precisely WHAT does he propose to fix this immaginary problem? Confiscation? Salary limits? HUGE taxes? Should the govt decide how much people earn? Sounds like he want the stupid, lazy and useless to have the same stuff as the productive folks.
Until he suggests specific policies I suggest the Pontiff just keep working his beads.

The Mark
The Mark
Bloomsbury Publishing PLC, Hardcover, 9781599904313, 228pp.
Publication Date: January 19, 2010
Cassandra Renfield has always seen the mark a glow around certain people reminiscent of candlelight. But the one time she mentioned it, it was dismissed as a trick of the light. Until the day she watches a man awash in the mark die. After searching her memories, Cassie realizes she can see a person's imminent death. Not how or where, only when: today.
Armed with a vague understanding of the light, Cassie begins to explore her "gift," seeking those marked for death and probing the line between decision and destiny. Though she's careful to hide her secret even from her new philosophy-obsessed boyfriend with each impending death comes the temptation to test fate. But so many questions remain. How does the mark work? Why is she the only one who sees it? And finally, the most important of all: If you know today is someone's last, should you tell them?

3 children's hospitals in Michigan rank among nation's best in U.S. News report
UM's C.S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor scored the best in the state, with all specialties but two in the top 50.
Crain's Detroit Business is a metered site. Print and digital subscribers have unlimited access to stories, but registered users are limited to eight stories every 30 days.

The former vice president of business development and strategic planning will focus on strategies to grow DMC's pediatric service lines and expand ambulatory and inpatient pediatric and surgical services.
UM's C.S. Mott Children's Hospital in Ann Arbor scored the best in the state, with all specialties but two in the top 50.
Increased regulations and compliance costs have forced improved efficiencies to maintain profit margins.
About two-thirds of Americans have access to a Level I trauma center — like the Orlando Regional Medical Center, the most advanced kind — within an hour by land or air. But only 1 in 4 rural residents are that close, compared with nearly 90 percent of urban dwellers.
Hospitals, physicians, insurers, retail pharmacies and patients are paying double-digit increases in drug prices as drug company mergers and acquisitions force up prices and newer specialty drugs enter the market.
Detroit Medical Center opened a $42 million pediatric outpatient center in February. Patient volume has been growing at its downtown hospital and outpatient center. Meanwhile, Beaumont Health also has experienced growth, going against industry trends where pediatric volume in Michigan has been essentially flat.
Known primarily as a plastic and reconstructive surgery hospital, Straith has added eye surgery and rehabilitation services over the years. But the hospital seeks to expand service lines, add physicians and contract with providers under Obamacare.
Read how William Conway, CEO of the Henry Ford Medical Group in Detroit, and other top health care leaders responded to Modern Healthcare's second-quarter CEO Power Panel poll.
Patient Access Solutions developed the tool that consumers can use to get details about how their local hospitals scored for safety according to Leapfrog.
The changes have the potential to upend the way medicine is practiced today, accelerating the move toward hospital employment and making the small group practice a thing of the past.
Michigan hospitals earned more A's compared with last year. The report looks at infection rates, problems with surgeries, prevention of errors and safety issues.
State facilities earn more A grades compared with last year. The report looks at infection rates, problems with surgeries, prevention of errors and safety issues.
Beaumont Children's Hospital recently announced the funding from Children's Miracle Network Hospitals, a charity that works with children's hospitals across the U.S. and Canada.

At last check, PSUN has hit an intraday high of $1.59 and volume is tracking in right below its three-month average action of 497,794 shares. Traders should now look for long-biased trades if PSUN can manage to move or close back above both its 50-day and 200-day, and then break out above some near-term overhead resistance at $1.65 with heavy volume. Look for volume on that move that's near or above 497,794 shares. If we get that action soon, look for PSUN to tag $1.82 or possibly trend above $2. Prev 1 of 5 Next

Product Description
Set more than a decade after the story in Chinatown, this 1990 sequel brings Jack Nicholson back to the screen as L.A. private detective Jake Gittes. Older, fatter, worn, and frustrated, the Jake of 1948 is still haunted by the tragic events of the earlier film. While investigating a case involving adultery and questionable land dealings by an L.A. tycoon (Harvey Keitel as the other Jake), Gittes unexpectedly confronts a few old ghosts and discovers that the resource of choice in Southern California--one for which people die--is no longer water but oil. The film had a notorious production history, with Nicholson taking over the project from writer-director Robert Towne, and the dense plot can be difficult to follow. But if The Two Jakes doesn't measure up to the legendary status of its stylish predecessor, the film does satisfy on its own terms and brings the events of Chinatown to a moving conclusion. Terrific work by Keitel and supporting players Meg Tilly, Madeleine Stowe, Eli Wallach, and Ruben Blades. --Tom Keogh

this film and stars again as Jake Gittes.Robert Towne wrote the script
and the movie is based on characters created by him.it is hard not to
compare this movie to its predecessor and comparisons are inevitable.so
here goes.First off this movie plods along at a snail's pace.there
doesn't seem to be a clear direction.Also,Gittes seems less likable
this time around.the surrounding characters seem to lack any real
imagination,as do the situations.put simply,there is no spark.and the
femme fatalle angle,which worked so well in the original,doesn't work
here.but then who could fill the shoes of the mega star charismatic
actress Faye Dunnaway?no-one.so,the femme in this case is less
fatalle.the script is also lacking in imagination,giving the
director(Nicholson)less to work with.you will be bored nearly to tears
here.a disappointing followup to Chinatown.,as a stand alone
film,however-also disappointing.this movie is not quite awful,but not
quite good either.not recommended. 2/5
From the smoke ring filled opening with Peggy Lee's "Don't Smoke in Bed" to Jo Stafford's "Haunted Heart" at the end Nicholson frames the colorful orange and blues of 1948 Los Angeles against the darker internal memories of the past. Gittes is a successful P.I. who works on divorce cases and plays golf. L.A. County is filled with orange groves created by the water so sought after in "Chinatown". But Gittes is about to learn you can never really forget the past.
Los Angeles of 1948 is booming with housing going up everywhere. But just as in "Chinatown" nothing is ever enough. Oil is the new 'water' and some people will even kill for it. Harvey Keitel is great as the 'other' Jake and Perry Lopez is on hand once more as Gittes old 'pal' Lou Escobar. Some of the best exchanges in the film are between these two. Rueben Blades and Frederick Forest give nice support as does Richard Farnsworth as weathered oilman Earl Rawley.
Madeline Stowe nearly steals the show as the outwardly prim and proper but inwardly frustrated (You're gonna make me aren't you) nymph Lillian Bodine. But it is Jake's meeting with the softly beautiful and vulnerable wife of the 'other' Jake that triggers something. Meg Tilly is terrific as Kitty Berman and Gittes can't quite understands why she gets him thinking about the past until he revisits it himself in the form of Kahn (James Hong), the Mulray's former servant. There is something about the flowers....Read more ›
