The collapse of the welfare state and the instinctive liberal reaction to defend ferociously the status quo are part of the motivation for the reform conservative movement that is shifting the GOP's agenda from indiscriminately cutting government to rethinking government. At a panel at the American Enterprise Institute (a prior panel and speech by the Senate minority leader are described here), a set of conservative scholars discussed a new policy initiative, "Room to Grow: Conservative Reforms for Limited Government and a Thriving Middle Class."
One of its authors, Yuval Levin, explains in the book's introduction: "The fundamentally prescriptive, technocratic approach to American society inherent in the logic of the Left's policy thinking is a poor fit for American life at any scale. The liberal welfare state ultimately cannot be had at an affordable price. It is not the architecture of one or another particular program that makes it unsustainable. It is unsustainable because the system as a whole must feed off of the innovative, decentralized vitality of American life, yet it undermines both the moral and the economic foundations of that vitality." In other words, it's bound to fail.
Examples of the problem abound. The VA is close to a European, socialized medicine program as you are going to see in the U.S., and it is killing people. Medicaid is rife with fraud and offers care much worse than non-Medicaid patients receive (in part because the rates don't attract the best physicians). We've spent hundreds of billions on education and our kids do worse in math than do children in Poland and Vietnam. The libertarian would say: "Get rid of it all, and everything will be better!" The reform conservative says, "Let's see if we can do these things better, or better yet, move more people off Medicaid, for example, and into good-paying jobs." A good example of the latter mindset is Medicare Part D, a GOP reform that used market forces to keep costs down and make drugs accessible to the elderly. Liberals and libertarians fought it tooth and nail, but it works and people like it.
Liberals hate this sort of conservative talk and would rather spend more money for worse results. Why? We can be cynical and say they have a political dependence on civil servants and want those people to stay employed. Levin instead suggests that it is inherent in their vision of government: "The Left tends to champion public programs that consolidate the application of technical expertise: that try to take on social problems by managing large portions of society as if they were systems in need of better organization and direction. Again, it views government as organizing the interactions of individuals."
Hand in hand with this go a few liberal habits of mind. First, it's all about inputs. How many dollars, how many meetings, how many people served. When the dollars in a budget go down (or merely fail to rise), liberals holler that you are hurting the poor, without regard to whether the current programs are doing the job. The outputs — people out of poverty, people in paying jobs – aren't even measured in many instances. (This isn't just in domestic policy. Ask a State Department employee what he has "accomplished," and he'll reel off a list of memos, meetings and trips.) Second, it imagines that the smartest technocrats can figure it all out and micromanage a vast, diverse and complex country. You get Obamacare, which has federal bureaucrats telling you what an "acceptable" insurance policy is and what is, as the president put it, a "crap" plan that shouldn't be sold.
The result of all this is a very big liberal welfare state that does a very bad job of addressing people's problems. Oh, and it drives us into deeper and deeper debt. That is the bad news that contributes to the sense that government doesn't work for anyone who really needs it. The good news is that the exhaustion of the liberal welfare state, a victim of its own flawed organizing principles, offers the opportunity for a vision of government that is better, more effective and more limited (at least at the federal level).
That, one hopes is the conservative discussion – along with the collapse of American credibility in the world – for the next couple of years and throughout the presidential campaign. As Levin argues, "This involves not a return to some fabled past but a modernization of our antiquated, lumbering, bureaucratic, mid-twentieth century governing institutions that enables a leaner and more responsive twenty-first-century government to help a complex and diverse twenty-first-century society solve its problems. By recovering the animating principles of American government, we can overcome the flabby lethargy of the progressive welfare state." It requires that the right give up pining for a pre-New-Deal-sized government and recognize that markets and private charity can't do everything.
It might also convince a majority of Americans that Republicans don't hate the poor. In fact, if they love their fellow Americans enough to fix government in order to improve their lives and aid in their pursuit of success, people might actually vote for them.

Ice skater Lynne Frederick is about to get married (to U.K. '60s pop singer John Leyton) when she sees a man (Jack Watson) from her past. She keeps seeing him nearly everywhere she turns, and the stalker's arrival coincides with a series of gruesome deaths. A riveting séance sequence is but one example of Walker's stylish direction in this giallo-like British thriller.


text:
We consider the soteriology of the Epistle to the Hebrews, traditionally attributed to St. Paul. (This is probably the last-but-one of this semester's assignments to be published here.) We shall look briefly at the arguments that Hebrews gives for the superiority of Christ's sacrifice, the effect in an individual's life of this doctrine, and why there can be none other like it. In an important way, then, this assignment touches the core question at the heart of Christianity: "Why," as the title of St. Anselm of Canterbury's famous work puts it, "the God-man?"
At Calvary, a cross became an unwitting altar when the Son of God sacrificed Himself upon it for the sins of the world. 1 Hebrews gives many reasons for the primacy of this sacrifice. Some are given by allusion. Jesus is more worthy of honor than Moses (and impliedly all others), because the founder of a house is more honorable than the house itself 2; the more valuable the offering, the greater the sacrifice. Jesus is the true and most excellent high-priest 3; the right sacrifice should be offered by the right priest. Indeed, Jesus is the high-priest who presides over a new and more excellent law of sacrifice which has overtaken the old. 4
But the author 5 grasps the nettle firmly in chapter nine:
When Christ came as high priest of the good things that have come to be, passing through the greater and more perfect tabernacle …, he entered once for all into the sanctuary, not with the blood of goats and calves but with his own blood, thus obtaining eternal redemption. For if the blood of goats and bulls and the sprinkling of a heifer's ashes can sanctify those who are defiled so that their flesh is cleansed, how much more will the blood of Christ, who through the eternal spirit offered himself unblemished to God, cleanse our consciences from dead works to worship the living God. For this reason he is mediator of a new covenant: since a death has taken place for deliverance from transgressions under the first covenant, those who are called may receive the promised eternal inheritance. 6
What is the point of all this? One answer is given by Joseph Ratzinger, with characteristic insight:
In Jesus' Passion, all of the filth of the world touches the infinitely-pure one, the soul of Jesus Christ and, hence, the Son of God Himself. While it is usually the case that anything unclean touching something clean renders [the latter] unclean, here it is the other way around: when the world … comes into contact with the infinitely-pure one—then he, the pure one is stronger … [and] the filth of the world is truly absorbed, wiped-out. And transformed in the pain of infinite love. 7
That is an elegant, theologian's answer, but it is perhaps quite abstract. Hebrews, by contrast, gives a blunt and unsettlingly-concrete answer: Blood. "According to the law almost everything is purified by blood, and without the shedding of blood there is no forgiveness." 8 Last term, we reflected on the "why" question, noting that although "God had created mankind after his own image and likeness, … man was destroyed by the fall, which left us desperate and undone," 9 such that because of Adam's sin, "we, his descendants, come into the world deprived of sanctifying grace and inherit his punishment, as we would have inherited his gifts had he been obedient to God." 10 We were left "entirely unable to redeem ourselves," and for the reasons given by St. Anselm's Cur Deus Homo, "what [was] needed [was] something impossible: A person both God and man." 11 By sending His Son as both sacrificing priest and sacrificial victim, God solved this problem.
With these observations, it becomes straightforward to answer the question of why there cannot be another sacrifice like that of Christ: "Because sin is an infinite offense against God, and only God could offer infinite satisfaction … Son of man, [He] could suffer for the sins of man. Son of God, He could offer to His Father full and entire satisfaction according to the strict rigor of justice." 12 Only God could accomplish this. And God has no need of an encore: "The 'Lamb of God' took upon himself the sins of the world and wiped them away … Reconciliation had been accomplished." 13
It is equally straightforward to assess the effects of that sacrifice in a person's life today: In my Who is Jesus piece, quoted above, I proposed that the titular "Good News" of the Gospel boiled down to this: "[W]e had separated ourselves from God, [yet] He nevertheless so loved us that he sent to atone for our sin His only son, Jesus the Christ … who offered himself as an atoning sacrifice in order that by his wounds, those who confess and follow him may be restored to the company of heaven." Because of what He did on that day, salvation is offered to us. 14
It is thus appropriate that we reflect on this hot on the heels of the Easter Triduum, when we recollect that sacrifice, a sacrifice indeed, "though it had neither fire, nor logs, nor was offered many times, but had been offered in blood once for all; he shows that the ancient sacrifice also was of this kind, was offered once for all in blood." 15 It is in the Triduum above all that we recall the cross,
for in that solemn and lonely and unapproachable hour of the cross is the final fulfilment of the word of the herald on the banks of the Jordan, "Behold the Lamb of God, that taketh away the sin of the world !" That phrase … could have but one significance in the ears of the men who heard it. This was the voice of a Hebrew prophet speaking to Hebrews, and when he spoke of the Lamb taking away sins, they had no alternative other than to think of the long line of symbolical sacrifices which had been offered, and which they had been taught shadowed forth some great mystery of Divine purpose whereby sin might be dealt with. 16
This is a great mystery, and is properly so-called, for "we cannot comprehend how a God-man became a victim for us, and offered for our ins an atonement absolutely equal to the offense." 17 We have been purchased at a great price, tendered in "the precious blood of Jesus Christ." 18 In consequence, we have this hope: "Christ, offered once to take away the sins of many, will appear a second time, not to take away sin but to bring salvation to those who eagerly await him." 19

- While I reject the so-called "higher criticism" as rotten from root to branch, doubts about the attribution of Hebrews to St. Paul did not begin with the Critics. Even some Church Fathers expressed doubt. Nevertheless, I would pose these questions: Whence came it to be called the Epistle to the Hebrews and attributed to St. Paul? It lacks the letter-style introduction of other writings (Pauline and otherwise). One possibility is that Hebrews originally had such an introductory paragraph, now lost, that claimed Pauline authorship, whence both the characterization and the attribution. ↩

I use rhis almost every night
I use this practically every night to help me sleep. It doesn't smell great, but it works really well! Roll it under your feet for best results, and great for travelling. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for better sleep.
I would buy this product again
I would like to receive this product I never used before. Please send me this product at my shipping address is q4, vikas vihar street no.1 manaskunj road Uttamanagar Near kalgidhar gurudwara New Delhi
Works great if you can handle strong scents
It's not your typical sleeping remedy scent, like lavender. The scent is actually quite strong and can have the opposite effect on the user. Once I got over the smell, i actually dozed off. It now become a part of my nightly routine.
I love this product but it is very expensive. I apply it around my nose and on the soles of my feet, but it is a bit ineffective unless you wear socks. I.e. in the summer, it might not work as well because I wouldn't be wearing socks. It does help lull me to sleep and keep me asleep. It is so effective, and I will continue to buy it !
This oil blend is amazing for those who want to prolong their sleep... or who want to decrease the time it takes them to fall asleep. As a former saje seasonal employee I was VERY skeptical of this product. After using it for a while I realise this product works wonders. I never really had troubles sleeping, but let me tell you Sleep Well really does make for a deeper more peaceful sleep. The smell can be offsetting for some, but I dont mind it. I was taught in regards to oils if you dislike the smell that is your bodies way of telling you you dont need that oil.
I suffer from primary insomnia, and have for the past 3 years, i decided to give this a try and found it to be super ineffective, i think for the average person this simply acts like a placebo and because they believe it actually will work, it helps them sleep
I suffer from a disease which contributes to sleeplessness. I tried everything. When I bought the Halo rollers ball the girl at store recommended this to me! It really helps me relax and drift to sleep. I roll it behind my ears and under my nose. The scent is different, to me it smells very calming, earthy. I highly recommend this if you have a tough time falling asleep! Love this!
This is a must have in my house. I find it very relaxing and that helps me to fall asleep quickly. I apply it to the bottoms of my feet.
The lady at Saje told me if you like the scent it is "needed" for you. If you don't and think it smells repulsive you don't suffer from sleep issues.
This is my favourite product by Saje. I have undiagnosed insomnia and I struggle every night to fall asleep. This oil is very soothing. I just rub some on the bottom of my feet if I want it to slowly take effect. It I'm laying in bed and tossing and turning I will rub some directly on the veins of my wrist. It has a soothing and relaxing effect. Love it!

Once I started my little Made in America Holiday Gift Guide series, I quickly got connected to that piece of the blogosphere really into the subject — uncovering a motherlode of ways to tap into Made in USA products. Up first, though, is that perennial favorite and mid mod essential that I cover every year: Don Featherstone flamingos lawn ornaments. Made in the USA since they went on sale in 1958, the Featherstone flamingos (accept no substitute) may be found at local retailers, or you can buy them easily from Amazon:
Second spotlight: Filson has been manufacturing and retailing outdoor clothing and accessories since 1897. It is based in Seattle, with a union workforce. Above: A woman's wool cruiser. There's also quite a large selection of outwear for men. Note, I spotted a few imported pieces. Filson gets snaps for identifying country of origin clearly on each item on the website. Prices are not cheap, but Filson seems to take great pride in their product — these are lifetime pieces. One of our readers, JKaye noted in my first Made in the USA story, about wool socks:
… I got my daughter a Filson women's timber jacket last Christmas. She is a forester and actually wears it to work in, but it is so sharp that she also wears it out on the town (after picking the burrs off, of course). The quality is great and it will last forever. My husband has a Filson wool vest that he wears to work a lot in the winter because his office is so cold.
Up third: When I wrote about the Made in America LaGardo Tackett planters still available from Vessel USA, several readers piped up, "Gainey!" Yes, Gainey Ceramics is another California company with ceramic planters with a true midcentury modern pedigree and still locally made — 100% US-made with 100% US materials. (Blanks for the production fiberglass pieces, Gainey informs me, come from overseas. Gainey says their circle planter, above, is their best selling ceramic planter. I know my DH would love one of these, or one of the lovely bird feeders — they sure are snappy.
So… how do you get to the other 8,415 Made in America products? Well, on Black Friday the website AmericanManufacturing.org posted a story showing the results from searching "Made in USA" on several large retailers' websites. The accuracy of this hunting method is totally dependent on how well these retailers "tag" each item in their online catalog. In any case, here are the results of AmericanManufacturing.org's quick survey:
- Nordstrom — 5,465 products online Made in USA. I tried it — yup. Tip: You cannot search "made in usa" within categories, but, you can put the category in the search bar with "made in usa" to narrow your search. That is, search "made in usa womens" to get to those items.
- Macy's — 2,413 Made in USA products online. I just did the search got 2,408 – so I am going to use my number. Homer Laughlin dinnerware from Macys — sweet!
- Sears — 500+ (their search function stops counting after this number) Made in USA products online. Warning: I found it very difficult to use this site. I am not confident all the products that come up via this method of search are really Made in USA — please read descriptions to verify…
Ummm, get the idea, you can try this at any website. Again, though, success pivots on their tags. Retailer-webmasters, get to it!
Moving on to my last resource for today, "Made In America Certified" is an organization that validates companies' Made in America claims. It has 42 certified companies on its holiday gift list — companies that have completed the certification process. To be frank, most of these products aren't what I'd call nifty gifties for the holidays, but this site gets on my list for its process — they are right: To truly trust that a product is Made in the USA, 3rd party verification is really smart. Made in America Certified also recognizes that there are different aspects of "Made in the USA" considering all pieces of the value chain. So, they have three different levels of certification — shown above.
The average American will spend $700 on holiday gifts and goodies this year, totaling more than $465 billion, the National Retail Federation estimates. If that money was spent entirely on US made products it would create 4.6 million jobs. But it doesn't even have to be that big. If each of us spent just $64 on American made goods during our holiday shopping, the result would be 200,000 new jobs.
Hi Pam~I think it's wonderful that you have us all thinking about "Made in USA". I know I've become more aware! I wanted to tell you of one of my favorite things that I discovered is proudly made in the USA: Whitman's Sampler!! I recently got one for my birthday (I've loved Whitman's since I was a kid!!) and there is a little card in the box that explains the Whitman's Chocolatier Facilities and Distribution Centers.
"American Made Inside and out – Our corporate office, four manufacturing plants and six distribution centers employ more than 2,500 workers in eight states. From Reno, NV to Ruther Glen, VA to Corsicana, TX our hard-working associates make this candy just for you. In addition to the chocolates, all of the Sampler box packaging is manufactured in the USA as well, leveraging the talents and products of nearly a dozen US-based companies. We partner with companies such as St. Louis Litho in St. Louis, MO, belmark inc in De Pere, WI and Caraustar in Austell, GA, to provide you with the highest quality American made product."
When I read this little card, I was so pleased to find one of my all-time favorites is made right here!!!
So, who wouldn't love a Whitman's Sampler for Christmas???? 🙂
I don't know what it is about Sears/Kmart, their websites have always been notoriously bad and buggy.
REI has a slick filter for Made in America, if you are looking for outdoorsy items. You can basically shop the site like normal, but you will only see Made in America products. If amazon had a filter like that, it would be awesome.
If you want to see more Made in America products at the website you frequent, and want to make it easier to find them, I would suggest that everybody take two minutes to drop an e-mail to customer service every opportunity that they can at the sites that you shop at. Let them know that it is important to you as a customer!!
please check out the website for The Bronze Shoe Company.
If you are in the market for more Made in America choices and posts about all things Made in America, stop by my blog at simply-american.net. Keep up the good work Pam!

Distinction Within Boilers As well as Their own Benefits
Drinking water boilers function an essential objective inside a home. They offer all of us along with warmness through giving heat in to radiators as well as via plumbing. All of this shipped along with good stress can make all of them a good device to possess. Particularly therefore throughout the cooler months. Although not just about all devices would be the exact same, therefore let us consider the distinction within boilers.
With no central heating boiler, warmness demands much more function as well as detracts in the advantages this provides to begin with. Nevertheless, whenever seeking to use a central heating boiler, or even understand when the central heating boiler a person curently have is the greatest obtainable or even a minimum of relevant in order to your own house.
Typically, traditional boilers include the throw metal warmth exchanger. This utilizes this particular in order to warm up water since it goes by and frequently gets saved inside a energy container, like a copper mineral pipe associated with family member dimension. Because of the simpleness active in the method this particular central heating boiler functions, it is very dependable and much more user-friendly. The actual trade-off is actually in between higher power usage, however reduced upkeep costs.
Like the traditional kind, this particular gets hotter drinking water just as. Nevertheless, with regards to while using drinking water, rather than this becoming saved, it is given right to exactly where it is required. Taps, for instance, do not get warm water upon need from the traditional program, however perform from the mixture program. In addition, both house's heat, taps as well as showers may be used via a solitary central heating boiler. The actual drawback is actually which drinking water occupies in order to 40 mere seconds in order to warm up as well as stress is just taken care of via restricted faucet utilization.
The traditional as well as mixture boilers experienced numerous elements individual in the main device. Through installing the actual need components right into a solitary device, you receive the machine kind. Set up is created simpler as well as faster in addition to decreasing the actual supplies, expenses as well as upkeep needs. Furthermore, all the components becoming set up right into a solitary device imply harm to another components is actually negated. It is simpler to obtain the supply of the actual harm when it is just about all inside a solitary component.
Back again
As the additional boilers tend to be motivated through electrical power, back again kinds make use of fossil energy sources. All sorts associated with back again central heating boiler takes a fireplace or even open up flue to get rid of the actual dangerous gas which result from burning up the actual energy sources. With regard to energy sources such as fossil fuel, heat is just supplied once the fossil fuel is actually burning up, while non-solid fossil energy sources can offer warmth continuously throughout every season.
Mixing the rear central heating boiler having a warmth exchanger, water that's chillier is actually warmed upward once again. This particular efficiently utilizes warmth effectiveness and offers an infinitely more cost-effective means to fix home-heating. The drawback of the device is actually how the intricacy from the style can result in much more upkeep expenses as well as maintenance.

By Joseph Arshawsky, J.D.
A patent for a water recreational device—a floating board with handles intended to allow any kind of rider regardless of athleticism to achieve a full standing and riding position—asserted by ZUP, LLC ("ZUP") against its competitor Nash Manufacturing, Inc. ("Nash"), was invalid as obvious in light of the prior art, a divided panel of the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Federal Circuit ruled, affirming a district court's ruling (ZUP, LLC v. Nash Manufacturing, Inc., July 25, 2018, Prost, S.).
ZUP and Nash are competitors in the water recreational device industry. Nash has been a part of the industry for over fifty years and has designed and manufactured water skis, knee boards, wake boards, and other similar recreational devices. Meanwhile, ZUP is a relative newcomer to the industry, having entered the market in 2012 with its "ZUP Board." The ZUP Board is designed to assist riders who have difficulty pulling themselves up out of the water into a standing position while being towed behind a motorboat. The district court invalidated claims 1 and 9 of U.S. Patent No. 8,292,681 ("the '681 patent") as obvious and, in the alternative, found that Nash does not infringe claim 9. The Federal Circuit affirmed the district court's finding on obviousness and did not reach the infringement question.
The '681 patent. Claims 1 and 9 contain the following elements: (1) a riding board; (2) a tow hook on the front of the riding board; (3) a plurality of rails on the bottom surface of the riding board; (4) side-by-side handles on the front of the riding board; (5) side-by-side foot bindings on the middle of the riding board; and, at least as stated in claim 1, (6) the ability to simultaneously engage the handles and foot bindings to position the rider in a crouching stance.
Summary judgment on obviousness. Where "the content of the prior art, the scope of the patent claim, and the level of ordinary skill in the art are not in material dispute, and the obviousness of the claim is apparent in light of these factors, summary judgment is appropriate." Here, there was no dispute with respect to the content of the prior art, and the differences between that prior art and the '681 patent. The only issues on appeal were (1) whether a person of ordinary skill in the art would have been motivated to combine the prior art references in the way claimed by the '681 patent, and (2) whether the district court properly evaluated ZUP's evidence of secondary considerations.
The district court first found that all the elements of the claimed invention existed in the prior art. The only evidence ZUP pointed out to the court is the testimony of its expert, noting the "general frustration to the industry that there was no product that would enable the weakest and most athletically challenged members of the boating community to ski or wakeboard." In the face of the significant evidence presented by Nash regarding the consistent desire for riders to change positions while riding water recreational boards (and the need to maintain stability while doing so) and given that the elements of the '681 patent were used in the prior art for this very purpose, there was no genuine dispute as to the existence of a motivation to combine.
Turning to ZUP's second argument on appeal, ZUP's minimal evidence of secondary considerations did not create a genuine dispute of fact sufficient to withstand summary judgment on the question of obviousness. On appeal, ZUP focused only on long-felt but unresolved need and copying. "As we have said before, '[w]here the differences betweenthe prior art and the claimed invention are as minimal as they are here, however, it cannot be said that any long-felt need was unsolved.'" ZUP presented even less compelling evidence of copying. "In sum, we agree with the district court's assessment of the summary judgment record. Even drawing all reasonable inferences in favor of ZUP, such evidence is insufficient to withstand summary judgment on the question of obviousness. The weak evidence of secondary considerations presented here simply cannot overcome the strong showing of obviousness." The court affirmed the district court's holding that claims 1 and 9 of the '681 patent were invalid as obvious.
Judge Newman's dissent. Circuit Judge Pauline Newman disagreed with the majority arguing that the judgment was rendered on incorrect application of the law of obviousness and without regard to the principles of summary judgment. "The parties, the district court, and my colleagues all agree that the structure and the placement of handles and foot bindings is novel. However, the district court and my colleagues hold that because some prior art wakeboards have handles and some have foot supports, nothing more is needed for summary judgment of obviousness." Judge Newman disagreed with the panel's requirement that secondary considerations "overcome" the conclusion based on the first three factors Graham factors rather than reviewing all four factors together.
This case is No. 17-1601.

"Twisted is the flagship white of a laudible, high-end Niagara winery, unlike many of its peers in this country and beyond, has kept a sane lid on prices. The wine is a blend of Riesling, Gewurztraminer and Chardonnay, and this is the first vintage under the eye of winemaker Dave Sheppard.
Perfectly off-dry, intriguingly oily and for the sake of a foreign frame of reference - voluptuously Alsatian. Plump and musky, it offers up flavours of apricot, peach and baked apple, like a mixed-fruit country pie. A well-crafted blend that combines Riesling's zip with Gewurztraminer's aromatics and Chardonnay's flesh."

Savoury Mushroom & Onion Cheese Tarts
It is the time of year where having a few easy to prepare and festive party food options is always a good idea. These savory mushroom & onion cheese tarts are just that and will have your guests begging for the recipe! Be adventurous by trying out different herb combinations with basil, cilantro or parsley. Also, explore using lower fat cheeses to cut back on unwanted holiday calories.
Savoury Mushroom & Onion Cheese Tarts
Adapted from New Vegetarian
Serves 24
- 2 Tbsp olive oil
- 1 large onion, chopped
- 1.5 cups finely chopped or sliced mushrooms
- 1 Tbsp brown sugar
- Leaves from 2-3 sprigs of thyme (experiment with basil, cilantro and parsley too!)
- 12 slices medium sliced whole wheat bread
- 3 Tbsp unsalted butter, for spreading
- 1 cup Gruyere
- 1.5 cups mature cheddar cheese
- Salt & ground pepper to taste
- A 2 inch glass or plain cookie cutter
- 2 non-stick, 12 cup muffin tins
- Heat the olive oil in a skillet, add the onions, and saute until softened and lightly golden. Sprinkle sugar on top and season with salt and pepper. Add mushrooms and thyme and cook over a high heat until the mushrooms have softened, about 5 minutes.
- Using the top of the glass or cookie cutter, stamp out circles from the bread (the glass flattens the bread at the edges, which will make the tarts crispier). Lightly spread butter on one side of each circle, then use to line the pan, butter side down, and press firmly into place.
- Put teaspoons of the mushroom mixture in the bread cups and top with grated cheese. Bake in a preheated oven at 425F for about 10-15 minutes until golden and bubbling. Serve hot. Alternatively, let cool, then warm through before serving.

Average Costs
Average Costs ¢.05 - ¢.25 Per Square Foot
The majority of professional services price office jobs by square footage. This will include the basic services that will be performed each time the company is on site.
Daily office cleaning rates in urban areas may cost approximately ¢.10 per square foot for every hour the professionals are on site. If you own a 10,000 square foot office building you can expect to pay several thousand dollars a month for daily services.
Some cleaning companies give clients a flat rate. If you require bathroom cleaning and trash pickup two times per week the amount will be significantly lower.

- Time that it takes to complete the cleaning.

- Was it an after hours emergency
- With many more aspects that may add to the cost
Remember, the company quoting a low rate may not necessarily be the right company for you. Some companies may offer low hourly rates, but then charge additional "fees" to complete the job.
You may also need to consider that most companies charge a higher rate for overtime, weekends, holidays and emergency calls.
The best rule of hand is to get an itemized estimate so you know exactly what is expected from the local company.

Finding The Right Office Cleaning Service
When it comes to hiring a office cleaning professional, it's amazing how hard it sometimes is to find the right company. Have you noticed how long it takes for some office cleaners to get back to you when you leave a message - if they ever bother calling you back at all? If they do not call back in a reasonable amount of time move on to the next company.
Once an office cleaning professional is found, make sure you insist on a background check and criminal history investigation of all the workers that they will employ at your business! These are more difficult for private business to undertake than for companies who have developed and utilize a systematic screening process in connection with their hiring practices. But these office cleaning professionals will be in your place of business and working among your employees so it's well worth it to know who they are.
Hiring a reliable office cleaning company (instead of trying to find an individual cleaner), which in turn bears the burden of finding, training and managing its help, and can relieve you of all the investigative inquiries.
Who Is Doing The Work
Will the company employees perform the work or will they hire subcontractors? This should be your first question.
Define The Job
When interviewing a potential cleaning service, it's important that both you and your cleaner clearly agree on what will be included for the quoted fee.
Paying A Fair Price
You know that old saying "you get what you pay for". There are many factors that go into calculating a fair price for professional cleaning, so keep an open mind and remember that cheaper is not always better.
Good Value?
Since you're paying for a professional cleaning service, You expect a good professional cleaning job done. Your expectations relative to what was agreed upon at the beginning of your relationship with your office cleaning service should be fulfilled.
Communication Makes Everyone's Life Easier
A major cause of misunderstandings that lead to dissatisfaction in the relationship between client and professional office cleaner is a lack of communication. Communication is a two-way street, and since you may not be in the office on most occasions when your cleaning team visits, "written" communication is important.
Cleaning Schedule
Obviously, office cleaning must be done on an agreed upon schedule to ensure there is no disruption to the business.
Green Office Cleaning
Green cleaning involves the use of chemicals and other products to minimize harm to public health and the environment inside the office. Yet such environmentally friendly services include more than just the selection of cleaning products. Green cleaning also makes use of cleaning methods that are efficient and reduce energy use and waste.
Tips & Advice
Ask For The License - Ask for all local and state business licenses.
Proof Of Insurance- For your own protection, check proof of both workman's compensation and liability Insurance.
Business Stability- Find out how long the company has been in business.
Check Online Reviews - You're probably not the first person in town looking for their services. Rely on the internet to get reviews written by people in your community.
References - Expect any top-notch company to be able to provide you with references upon request. Once you have these names, contact the clients to get information about the quality service. When you call, ask questions about the work, timeliness, cost and whether the clients would use the company again for future work.
24-hour Emergency Service - Make sure your local company offers emergency 24 hour service. If something goes wrong, it's good to know that you will not have to wait days for them to come out and fix it.
Over The Phone Pricing - Honest estimates simply cannot be given over the phone - especially if you aren't talking with an actual technician when you call.
Free Estimates - Most companies offer free estimates. This is important because they can provide you with the costs upfront, so that you are not shocked with a bill after the services are completed.
Safety Record - Safety can be a significant factor, so ask the company about their safety records to ensure that any service professional you hire has a satisfactory safety record. You want a company that doesn't have a high incidence of on-the-job mishaps or injuries.
Building Codes- In certain areas you'll need to make sure that the local company meets all building code requirements.
Satisfaction Guarantee - Choosing a company that offers a satisfaction guarantee will ensure that they will get the job done right the first time and will save you money and frustration in the long run.
Cleanup - The mess left behind after a project can be major. Ask what cleanup work the company includes with it's services.

Emergency Medicine
Sarmiento K, et al. MMWR Morb Mortal Wkly Rep. 2019;10.15585/mmwr.mm6810a2.
Pediatric sports- and recreation-related traumatic brain injuries, or SRR-TBIs, cause more than 280,000 visits to EDs throughout the United States, according to researchers from the CDC. Nearly half of these SRR-TBIs are caused by contact sports.
According to Kelly Sarmiento, MPH, a public health advisor in the CDC's Division of Unintentional Injury Prevention's traumatic brain injury team, and colleagues, previous research has suggested that children account for 70% of ED visits for SRR-TBIs.
The researchers examined all reported SRR-TBI cases presenting to American EDs between 2010 and 2016.
According to the researchers, an average of 283,000 SRR-TBIs among children aged younger than 18 years were treated in an emergency setting each year during the study period. Sarmiento and colleagues observed a "leveling off" in recent years. They theorized that this change beginning in 2012 may have occurred due to successful prevention efforts such as safety-minded rule changes in contact sports, declining participation in these sports or changes in care-seeking behaviors.
Male children had the highest rate of concussion, along with children aged 10 to 14 years and 15 to 17 years. Contact sports were the source of SRR-TBI for approximately 45% of all ED visits. When activity type was examined, football, bicycling, basketball, playground activities and soccer contributed to the highest number of ED visits for SRR-TBIs.
"Limiting player-to-player contact and rule changes that reduce risk for collisions are critical to preventing TBI in contact and limited-contact sports," Sarmiento and colleagues wrote. "Development and testing of evidence-based interventions tailored for individual noncontact sports and recreation activities are warranted to ensure that children can stay healthy and active." – by Katherine Bortz

Christopher C. Giza
ED visits for SRR-TBI have stabilized in recent years, but in males, the number of visits increased in 2010 to 2012 and then decreased in 2016. In females, the number of visits increased from 2010-2016.
Year-to-year comparisons are the most valid, assuming no change in data collection methods from 2010 to 2016. However, these data cannot determine the reasons for yearly changes. Increases may be due to better TBI recognition, more sport participation or more patients with TBIs going to EDs. Decreases may be due to improved safety or rules, less participation or reduced reporting of injuries.
These data cannot determine relative risks because they also reflect level of participation and where patients go for care. Although ED visits are likely to identify more severe injuries, we know these numbers underestimate the total because many patients with SRR-TBI may not go the ED.
Because of study limitations, it is possible for different and even sometimes opposite interpretations of these data. Nonetheless, it seems clear from this study that overall numbers of SRR-TBI ED visits have leveled off between 2010 and 2016, contrasting with earlier data showing steady increases. These data also show significant differences between males and females, including year-to-year changes, number of SRR-TBI visits and specific activities associated with SRR-TBI.

دوره Writing in the Sciences ، فصل 1 : principles of effective writing
دربارهی این فصل:
Unit 1 introduces the course and reviews key principles of effective writing. In particular, you will practice cutting clutter from writing.
این شامل 7 زیر است:
And they spend so much time focusing on this part that they forget about just trying to get their ideas across clearly and effectively, and this leads to all sorts of problems in the writing. Or you might think that it takes years of English and humanities classes to become a good writer, and again, a lot of scientists don't have that. And read sources of professional good writing like magazines and novels, non-fiction books, not necessarily the scientific literature.
I pick up snippets, sentences, paragraphs from various things I read, sometimes my students' work, sometimes the scientific literature, and I'm often critiquing that writing. And it reads, adoptive cell transfer, immunotherapy is based on the ex vivo selection of tumor-reactive lymphocytes, and their activation and numerical expression before reinfusion to the autologous tumor-bearing host. The author writes, my professor friend told me that in his academic world, publish or perish is really true.
Here's an example that I pulled out of Cell, which is a top biology journal, with a high impact factor, something around 30. It reads, dysregulation of physiologic microRNA, miR, activity has been shown to play an important role in tumor initiation and progression, including gliomagenesis. Molecular species could be a lot of things, it doesn't give me a concrete picture of what the authors are talking about.
I think we have adequate scientific evidence to state that increased athletic activity lowers cardiovascular risk and blood pressure and improves. And i just want to acknowledge and thank Debra Biasca of the University of Colorado, Boulder who shared some writing examples and physics with me that appear in my slides. Here's another example, this is a perfectly good sentence it reads brain injury incidents shows two peak periods in almost all reports rates are the highest in young people and the elderly, that's fine.
Sometimes you have to be a little clever about it, but if you think about it carefully, you can usually find a way to put it in the positive. You can change that to the data confirm an association between vegetables and cancer. Finally, another thing that I want you to start paying attention to are needless prepositions.
So the next example reads, "Ultimately p53 guards not only against malignant transformation but also plays a role in developmental processes as diverse as aging, differentiation, and fertility." So, "An IQ test measures an individuals" and then we get, "abilities to perform functions that usually fall in the domains". So, "An IQ test measures an individual's verbal, reasoning, or motor and spatial capabilities."
So let's just point out why they don't work for mapping neural circuits and get rid of, for example, focused ion beam scanning electron microscopy. So because they have many intracellular features and this is an extracellular stain, in which we've just said in the previous sentence we don't need to repeat Briggman's team could not directly see, visualize the synapses. I go back to the author and say, for the revision, all those words that I've highlighted probably see if you can say a little bit more simply, or in passing, give a little definition for the readers, especially who aren't coming from neurology.

at Hampstead Theatre
Only the King wears his own clothes.
All the others, Presbyterians, Levellers, Counsellors and the two women, are all dressed somewhere in the middle of the Twentieth Century. Ashley Martin-Davis's grim traverse set suggests a corridor of power, with overflowing filing cabinets, in Whitehall, maybe, or Westminster, scenes of the military coup of 1649.
Like Brenton's earlier success, Anne Boleyn, 55 Days dissects a turning point in history, and takes us back to a world where religion was central to the lives of rulers and commoners alike.
But the mufti and the intimate setting make these people seem very real, their predicaments very immediate. Mr Speaker [John Mackay], the "saints" [Cromwell's army, encamped round braziers in Hyde Park], Freeborn John Lilburne [Gerald Kyd] and the rest.
The action is swift, brutal in Howard Davies's gripping production. Allegiances, ambitions are far from fixed – "everybody twists about" – stability is a dear, distant dream. A bell tolls for Evensong in the chapel at Carisbrooke, Cromwell is at his ablutions above a Knottingley tavern. And most chillingly effective of all, the noisy meetings and the attempt at a trial. A very real sense that decisions are made, policies forged, on the hoof. "We are not just trying a tyrant, we are inventing a country, " Cromwell says. The lawyers that the Parliamentarians enlist are unsure, torn between statute and revolutionary zeal. [Excellent performances from Tom Vaughan-Lawler and James Wallace, who also plays Richmond in the earlier scenes.]
Cromwell is a strong, determined but ultimately reasonable Douglas Henshall. Mark Gatiss his proud, remote, arrogant monarch. A glass of wine symbolises a meeting between them [which happens, like Tyndale's tryst with Boleyn, only in the dramatist's imagination]. Charles's rejection of his advances suddenly triggers an angry decision, the trial and the execution.
There are echoes of the earlier play in the humour, the names [Thomas, Lady Anne, Cromwell] and in Brenton's unique gift for heightened yet realistic historical dialogue. He captures the turbulence of the times, and makes complex political, social and religious ideas not only accessible but real and relevant.

Well I have always liked art really. Lots of art, many different types of art using many different techniques and mediums.
There was a time when I made a bit of a living from my art, but that was way back when and to a time I have long since forgotten or at least forgotten to remember.
But at Church I have the honour of being able to lead an art group every other week and to pop along to youth club once a month and to teach art there too.
This week's art group we looked at sketching again and I found a delightful little sketch on the internet that I thought everyone would enjoy trying to draw.
So we set about drawing it. I broke it down (or at least the main character of the sketch) into three basic shapes, three circles and we built it from there.
Then just for the fun of it I asked everyone to write the words "Sometimes" above their sketch at the top of the page and "is like finding an elephant up a tree" under their sketch and at the bottom of the page and leaving room for one more line to say anything of their choice just above it.
Here is my humble offering…

No one knows our bodies better than ourselves — so when something's wrong, it doesn't take long to notice.
Paying attention to the way we feel and to new sensations or pains can be one of the most important tools in detecting and preventing many fatal conditions, like in detecting a heart attack. Dr. Len Lichtenfeld of the American Cancer Society writes, "You know your body best. When you see or feel something different or just feel 'off', pay attention. Don't dismiss it." While there are some ailments that we can solve ourselves — like minor aches and pains — certain symptoms tell us that we should seek medical attention right away. Neurosurgeon Dr. Keith L. Black writes, "The things that we doctors are most concerned about are new symptoms that develop quickly, rather than things that develop over a long period of time." While this list should never take the place of medical advice, these are quick and easy indicators to know if something major might be wrong.
Chest pain
Chest Pain very serious and requires immediate medical attention. Pain or lingering tightness in the chest can be an indicator of a heart attack — but it could also be a sign of heart disease or even a blood clot. Dr. Shilpi Agarwal writes, "Any chest pain, especially accompanied by sweating, pressure, shortness of breath, or nausea, should be evaluated by a medical professional right away." As with any symptom, chest pain does not automatically mean that something terrible is wrong. But in this case it is always better to be safe than sorry!A sudden onset of extreme pain in your head, particularly if it feels worse than any headaches you've had before, is a strong indicator that you should see a doctor right away. These terrible headaches could be a sign of an aneurysm or even a burst blood vessel. There are also other possibilities such as meningitis or shingles.
Sudden Severe Headache
The Cleveland Clinic writes, "A sudden, severe headache could be a sign of a more serious, life-threatening condition. Up to six percent of the population could be living with an unruptured brain aneurysm." As with the onset of any sudden symptom, seeking medical attention is always the smart move with a terrible, unexpected headache! Sudden confusion or an inability to concentrate are actually extremely serious indicators that something is very wrong. Medical attention is definitely needed for confusion or a large change in personality. The strange behavior could be an indicator of a brain tumor, bleeding in the brain, or even a stroke. At the very least, it could be a sign of low blood sugar, dehydration, or an infection. Dr. David Bronson writes, "The mortality rate for severe confusion is pretty high. You have to figure out what's going on."
Unexplained weight loss
Unexplained weight loss of five percent of your body or more over a relatively short period of time is a serious indicator that you should see a doctor. One of the biggest symptoms of several types of cancer is this type of weight loss, and it is important to catch it as quickly as possible. Other possibilities include diabetes, depression, and problems with your endocrine system. Dr. Julian Schink writes, "Colon cancer is commonly associated with unexplained weight loss." While shedding a few pounds is not cause for concern, if you find yourself unsure of why you are losing weight, it is best to get things checked out!
Flashes of Light
Seeing flashes of light, unexplained bright spots, or other oddities in your vision is certainly a reason to see your doctor. These flashes or the presence of a large amount of floaters in your vision could be a sign of a detached retina, which can quickly lead to permanent loss of vision. The National Cancer Institute writes that although these symptoms do not cause pain and may seem harmless, getting fast treatment can save your vision.
Persistent Fever
A persistent fever or one that is abnormally high certainly requires medical attention. As a fever indicates that your body is battling some kind of infection, a more serious fever indicates a more serious infection. Possibilities include meningitis, a urinary tract infection, or even some forms of cancer like lymphoma or leukemia. Dr. David Bronson writes, "Fever of 103 degrees and higher warrants a trip to the doctor — period." And while the likelihood of cancer being the problem is low on the list, most of the potential causes require antibiotics, making a doctor's visit extremely necessary!
Short Of Breath
There are many situations, such as extreme physical activity, that can cause you to be short of breath. But if you can't catch your breath for an extended period of time, or if it is accompanied by chest pain, a fever, circulation issues, wheezing, or gasping, you should see a doctor right away. This inability to catch your breath could be a sign of a blood clot or pulmonary disease, both of which are extremely serious. Dr. Shilpi Agarwal writes, "Without urgent evaluation, breathing can quickly become labored, and it can be catastrophic if not evaluated and treated quickly."
Swollen Legs
Swollen legs mean that fluid is accumulating that shouldn't be there, and it may be a sign of heart failure, thyroid problems, or even vein problems. And if it is accompanied by pain in the back of your lower leg, it could be an indication of a blood clot. In any case, you should seek medical attention.

Michelle Gomez Interview
Interview of Michelle Gomez who plays Missy in the British TV Series Doctor Who.
She also plays Madame Satan in the American Series Chilling Adventures of Sabrina, shot during the Brussels Comic Con 2019.
What Personal Touch did she give to the Master ?
How was her First Day into that Universe ?
Why is she ALWAYS playing Evil Characters ?
Does she have an Anecdote about her Kissing Scene with the Doctor ?
Find out by watching our Interview !
What did you like most in playing Missy in Doctor Who?
They gave me so much Freedom to play, to be goofy and to be dark.
I could play the whole Palette of colors and emotions that we have in people so the biggest Gift for me was that amount of freedom.
What Personal Touch did you give to the Master ?
When you say I brought something to the Master that was so necessary,
do you mean a Vagina ? *audience laughing*
Because it seems to be the only thing I did, really.
Did you know you were gonna play the Master ?
Yes, I did know that I was gonna be the Master.
From the moment I had the Offer, I had about a Year during which the Directors would film the TV Series. It would then get cut before coming out so I had to sign a Non-Disclosure Agreement so that I couldn't tell anybody that I was gonna be the Master.
I only told my husband and my agent of course knew.
Your First Day into that Universe ?
I really had to try and keep my shit together because the first day I went in, I was like :
'There's Doctor Who, there's Doctor Who, there's Doctor Who'
'There's a Tardis, there's a Tardis, there's a Tardis' *audience laughing*
'Oooh fucking hell, there's Doctor Who' *giggles*
I was like hum ok.. I need to lighten up. They paid me, I need to be a Professional Actor.
What's so good about Missy ?
The thing about Missy was that she genuinely looked quite Dangerous from the start.
An Anecdote about your Kissing Scene with the Doctor ?
Jenna Coleman (AKA Clara Oswald, companion to the 12th Doctor) helped me and held my hand while I was snogging Peter /Capaldi/ (12th incarnation of Doctor Who).
Everything about that is so wrong and reflects badly I think on Jenna really, more than on myself but that was kind of how the Friendship began on Day One.
We knew the three of us were gonna have a lot of Fun together and support each other so the Narratives went along with that 'Threesome' *giggles*
Why ALWAYS Evil Characters ?
I tend to play similar Characters (mostly on screen) because the Camera doesn't lie.
This face was born to play Witches.
Favorite Character that you played ?
I think that'll always be Missy. Missy will always top it for me because I was given so much Creative Freedom whereas Madame Satan is wonderful but it's a small part in a huge machine because it's Warner Bros and Netflix.

Late last year, I shared with you the story of Malcha Mahal, a decrepit 14th century hunting lodge, deep in the Malcha forest in Delhi. Malcha Mahal was (in)famous for being the home of a reclusive, armed middle-aged brother and sister, claiming to be the descendants of the deposed King of Oudh. Surrounded by a thick forest, and with ferocious dogs, Malcha Mahal became the stuff of legend, and was even rumoured to be haunted.
If you didn't read my original story & the sad follow up 2 weeks later, then won't you please take the time to read them now? It will definitely put this account into perspective.
So, here is the story of our first glimpse of the ruined palace, deep in a forest of thorny bushes. This was late October 2017.
Just 2 weeks later, on November 5th, we learned that the Prince had been found dead, alone in his ruined palace, and was quietly buried by the government.
So today, when my running group decided that we should do our long Sunday run in the forest, we agreed that since the Prince is dead, we could in all conscience, go visit the 14th century building where he had lived and died.
It was heart-breaking.
It has clearly been ransacked, because I had seen photos online taken immediately after his death, so had a point of comparison.
Whatever was there has been stolen, smashed, or ransacked with a vengeance.
Look at this photo from just after the death of the prince, when a reporter went to the palace:
And this was the state this morning. You can see the smashed Delhi Blue crockery…
No crystal was to be found, like in the Quint photo below:
And the place has clearly been turned upside down:
We looked a little closer at the mess on the floor, and realised they were paints and paint brushes. But if the late Prince had painted anything, that too has long gone – stolen, vandalised, who knows? We all of us wandered around, feeling very sad at the ignominious end to a very unhappy, lonely life.
We found a few old telephone bills, and bank deposit slips, and an empty envelope addressed to the Royal House of Oudh. But none of the letters the Quint reporter found:
We clambered up onto the roof of the 14th century structure, overgrown but with a stunning view of Delhi as you never see it:
Coach bush-whacked his way across the roof, checking that it was safe for us to proceed:
In one direction, above, there was nothing but thorn trees and the distant outline of Rashtrapati Bhavan on the horizon in the murky grey sky.
In the other direction, below, the modernistic Delhi Earth Station.
Rhesus macaques were leaping around in the trees below us, and kites were wheeling overhead.
All very melancholic, to be honest.
Fascinating, but so very sad.
Now, of course, it remains to be seen what will happen to what is, let's not forget, an early 14th century structure.
It should, of course, be protected and cleaned and restored, but I have a feeling that it will just slowly and sadly moulder away, strewn with litter, and whatever memories it once contained will be lost for ever…

The Kent County Youth Fair rolls into town this week, and there is no shortage of animals at the fairgrounds. However, two are deserving of special recognition.
Pickles and Picante aren't being shown, but they have spent months serving as ambassadors for the fair and making appearances at events ranging from the Lowell Expo in the spring to summertime celebrations across the county.
Local Celebrities
Owned by Karlye Ordway, Pickles is approximately 15 years old and has served as KCYF mascot since 2011. "Everyone knows Pickles," Ordway says. "He is a little celebrity."
The white mini horse makes the rounds at festivals, events, parades, fairs and nursing homes each year, patiently standing as people pet him and take photos. He is there to give people a taste of what they'll find at the annual fair held at the Lowell fairgrounds.
This past year, Pickles got a new sidekick. Picante is a one-year old mini donkey who was only a month old when he came to live with Ordway. She had to bottle feed him, and he even spent a few nights in her basement because of the cold weather outside. "Picante is so little he used to ride in the back of our Tahoe," Ordway says.
When the mini donkey was adopted, Ordway already had Pickles as well as goats named Popcorn, Pepper and Peanut. It was decided that the tradition of names starting with the letter P and representing food should be continued, and Ordway's boyfriend came up with the name Picante.
Finding Fun at the Fair
If you stop by the fair, look for Pickles and see if you can spot the heart-shaped "cutie mark" that Ordway shaves into his haunches each year.
Plus, you can find all sorts of other animals on display. There are cows, sheep, hogs, horses, goats, poultry, rabbits and more. Swing by the main barn to see the still displays and grab a bite to eat from the food vendors. There are also carnival games, rides, free music, daily scavenger hunts, an ice cream social, free classes and so much more.
There is no gate fee to attend the fair, but parking does cost $6 per day or $18 for the week. Shuttles from the parking lot to the midway are available at peak times.
To see the entire week's schedule, visit the KCYF website. You can also stay up-to-date with Pickles all year long by liking the Pickles the Pony Facebook page.

Home Minister Ram Bahadur Thapa on Sunday pointed out that prosperity would be achieved by maintaining social justice and equality by ending corruption.
He was of the view that socialism could be put into full practice by achieving peace and stability by making the society moral, disciplined and dignified through Buddha philosophy. He was speaking at an identity card distribution programme organised here by the Buddhist Philosophy Promotion and Monastery Development Committee.
He also viewed that funds used in the purchase of weapons for wars should go to the investment in education and health, referring to millions of rupees spent on purchasing weapons for wars.
Likewise, State Minister for Culture, Tourism and Civil Aviation Dhan Bahadur Buda pointed out importance of Buddhist literature while putting his view that much income could be generated by making Lumbini a religious tourist site.
Executive officer of the Committee Narendra Bahadur Gurung stressed the need for conserving culture and heritage of various communities of the country.

In his recent piece here, our dear colleague Belen Gonzalez y Perez offers a truism: "All politically charged circumstances have a historical antecedent." That is of course undoubteIdly true. It is not entirely clear, however, whether he is referring to circumstances today or those at the time of the publication of the famous (infamous?) 2001 White Paper on professional chaplaincy.
If his intended reference is to a decade and a half ago, back when the White Paper was written and the College of Pastoral Supervision was barely a decade old, not even an adolescent in the life cycle of an organization, and our membership was very small, the politically charged circumstances were quite different from ones today. Distrust and acrimony was still fresh in the pastoral care world ten years after the founding of this reform movement of ours. Many believed and more than a few hoped that CPSP would not survive. Very few imagined it would thrive. The fact that some ignored CPSP and others shunned and made every effort to marginalize it – as some still do – was combined with the the fact that CPSP did not (and rightly still does not) see itself as an organization with promoting spiritual care in healthcare as its main focus.
If Belen was referring to circumstances now rather than nearly 15 years ago, well, these are indeed very different times. The White Paper is in many ways out of date, an artifact of a times past. Those who hold onto it like a sort of manifesto or sheaf of identity papers risk looking and sounding anachronistic. The document is there, but does anyone really treat it with reverence like a sacred text or set it out as a master plan? Only those very few who are unable to move into the present. Since it was written, CPSP membership has tripled. While remaining true to our Covenant and to the original vision of the founders we have demonstrated that both our standards and the quality of our training are on par with that of our cognate group colleagues, while remaining philosophically distinctly different. CPSP sits at the same table as ACPE, APC, NACC and what was formerly known as NAJC in HealthCare chaplaincy meetings. Our leadership and the leaders of other cognate groups respectfully communicate and occasionally collaborate. We have come a long way.
The fact is that we are different and intentionally so. We in CPSP approach the work of pastoral care differently from those who 15 years ago decided to marshal their combined energies and resources to advance a professional chaplaincy agenda in healthcare. There is a history to this that is tied to Boisen (and Cabot), to the Council (and the Institute), to New York (and New England). Sadly, most of that history is entirely unknown or mostly misunderstood today. It is important for all of us, and especially those of us in CPSP, to be who we are and not try to conflate our identity with that of others for the sake of a hoped-for legitimacy and indispensible role in healthcare institutions.
I'm afraid that in Belen's eagerness to improve the status of CPSP by including us in a diverse array of professional chaplaincy organizations – including military, police, prison, veterans, and others – who he would like to see recognized by those who crafted the White Paper he inadvertently does a disservice to all. "Chaplain" can refer to anyone doing ministry outside the setting of a faith community. A "professional chaplain" can be anyone who makes a living doing such ministry or even someone who ministers in a specialized setting whether they get paid for it or not. By background, training and particular qualifications, professional chaplains are a very diverse bunch.
Those who have been trained and certified as chaplains by CPSP are professionals but that is not what distinguishes or defines us. Our distinctive is that we are clinical chaplains, and ones of a particular sort in the tradition of Anton Boisen who founded the clinical pastoral movement. We are trained and certified in a particular way, using an engaged, action-reflection model of learning, in hopes of helping others to find meaning and purpose in the midst of their crisis, distress, loss or grief. We do share the same form, if not always the same substance and aims, as the professional organizations that a decade and a half ago were signatories to the White Paper.
Instead of advocating for a broader definition and more inclusive recognition of professional chaplains, we should foster a greater understanding and mutual appreciation of our distinct differences, especially among others who claim to be sharers in the clinical pastoral tradition. Today and moving forward it will be on the basis of our uniqueness, nurtured and expressed, that CPSP's rightful claim to acceptance and legitimacy will lie – among those in healthcare chaplaincy but most importantly among those persons who are in need of a chaplain.

Forget impeaching President Donald Trump. A top Democrat has now taken it to the extreme. After the president's summit in Helsinki with Russian President Vladimir Putin, a Democrat congressman has called for a military coup to remove President Trump, but he would instantly come to regret every word.
Democratic Tennessee Rep. Steve Cohen, hours after the summit, suggested that the United States military storm the Oval Office and drag the president out. "Where are our military folks? The Commander in Chief is in the hands of our enemy!" he wrote on Twitter.
Where are our military folks ? The Commander in Chief is in the hands of our enemy! https://t.co/3eF7OLKEdN
— Steve Cohen (@RepCohen) July 16, 2018
But this should not be a surprise for anyone who has followed Rep. Cohen since President Trump was elected. In January, the Tennessee representative spoke to MSNBC and showed how unhinged he is. "Donald Trump is the most despicable human being to ever reside at 1600 Pennsylvania Avenue," he said.
"A narcissistic sociopath doesn't change. It endangers the country. And war… is something he could get into to improve the rating for the [20]18 elections, where [Republicans] are in desperate shape. And will do anything to improve ratings," he continued.
"I hope I can show what type of person he is," he said. "He's never with his son. One of his ex-wives wrote that he was never with his children until they were adults. This is an unusual human being."
In November of 2017, he led a group of fellow Democrats in introducing articles of impeachment against the president one year after he was elected. "The time has come to make clear to the American people and to this president that his train of injuries to our Constitution must be brought to an end through impeachment," Rep. Cohen said in a statement.
"I believe there is evidence that he attempted to obstruct an investigation into Russia's interference with the U.S. presidential election and links between Russia and the Trump campaign, most notably the firing of FBI Director James Comey. The president's blatant refusal to separate himself from his businesses has led to clear instances of conflict of interest that appear to violate both the domestic and foreign emoluments clauses. And his attacks on 'so-called' judges and 'fake news' have undermined public confidence in the judiciary and the press. It's time for Congress to take action to stop this reckless and harmful behavior by removing Mr. Trump from office and to defend and uphold the Constitution of the United States," he said.
This is the same representative who, last week, said that FBI agent Peter Strzok deserved a purple heart for answering questions from Congress about the bias he displayed during the investigations into both the president and Hillary Clinton.
"If I could give you a Purple Heart, I would," he said. "This has been an attack on you and a way to attack Mr. Mueller and the investigation that is to get at Russian collusion involved in our election."
But hours after his initial tweet, Rep. Cohen issued another tweet claiming that he did not call for a coup and that people were jumping to conclusions. "Talk about jumping to conclusions without talking to source. No coup called for. I seriously doubt anyone would use twitter to do .. one tweet if by land two if by sea…Wow," he wrote.
Talk about jumping to conclusions without talking to source. No coup called for . I seriously doubt anyone would use twitter to do .. one tweet if by land two if by sea…Wow https://t.co/3d0uhGa57t
— Steve Cohen (@RepCohen) July 16, 2018
Really? Then what did he mean when he said, "Where are our military folks?" Was he looking for military members to have a game of checkers with them? What other possible thing could he have meant?
He knows what he meant, and anyone with reading comprehension skills knows what he meant. There is no other way to interpret it. Democrats want to find any way to remove President Trump, and if impeachment does not work they will take extreme measures.
