You are the sunlight that wakes my slumber
The rain amidst my drought
Underneath these heavy leaves
You have found me
Outside in the moonlight
Staring at the stars I can not reach
Twinkling in the twilight
I see Your shadow
Around me and within me
Swallowing the darkness that I know
Fading with the sunrise,
My fear in crimson flow
You are the lifter of my head
You are the Christ
The rock beneath my feet
And though You may not
Show me where You are
My joy remains complete
Within Your peace
I hear you whisper in the raging
of the waves that crash my soul
In the storm sustaining
Your wisdom takes its toll
On my being, my spirit's sanity
In Your grace completing
The days ordained for me
From the forming
Of the sea the wind the sky
Understanding leaves me
Now show me through Your eyes
Don't You konw who I am?
Don't You see the things I do?
Don't You understand the evil
That cuts me off from You?
But You are the Great I Am,
You are author of all grace
You have overcome the evil
so that I can see Your face

If that makes any sense at all...Any way, it'll make sense soon :D
I am back! I am okayish! I am still really stressed out because of my parents, they are both still really sick and I've been helping as much as I can. Also school is really bad at the moment, for the sake of my mental health I was pulled out of most of my assessments and all of my exams. I didn't know this and only just got back into them, except for math. I decided there was no way I'd ever be able to catch up on 2 full books (Algebra and Calculus) before my exams so I stayed out of them. My English teacher is a bit frustrating too, the acting principal spoke to her about how she's not allowed to put any pressure on me at all but she hasn't stopped loading on the pressure. Ugh.
I haven't been doing very much at all, I lack the motivation to do anything, I just have lost interest in everything. However my mum let me look through her stash because she can't stitch anymore to help me get back my stitching bug :D
Here are the new additions to my collection (some of them are probably started, and they're really old hence: new old stash :P )
I am really bad at anything other than cross stitch but hey, I need another hobby XD This was actually originally mine, my parents gave it to me for a Christmas present a while back but as I said, I am really bad at anything other than cross stitch XD
This was also originally mine but I didn't know how to do fractional stitches so I traded it for something a while back. But it is now back in my stash and I'm looking forward to its cuteness :P
The original plan for this one was that my mum and I were going to stitch two each and we were going to work on them together but mum told me I can do them all because she'll never get them done. When these are done they are all going to my mum ^_^
This is for my future niece/nephew who hasn't even been conceived. I am such a slow stitcher though that it'd probably be good to start it asap as they are planning on having a kid. My mum asked me to stitch it for them.
This was also seemingly originally mine but I don't actually remember it. It looks like it'll be fairly easy because of the small amount of colours.
Whatever these are? I don't even know what I'd do with them, but they are something pretty to stitch XD
This is a bookmark and one of the few kits you can actually buy from the local craft store. It was rather expensive when we got it. I know for a fact it is started because, yet again, it was once mine. My mum had started it and then given up on it so I took it up only to find somewhere there was a mistake and I hated dealing with anything when I was 10 so I gave it back. Knowing my usual "unfixable" mistakes, it'll probably only be 5 stitches that need to be unpicked.
I don't know anyone getting married but you can never be too prepared :P
This was also originally mine but yet again, I had a fear of fractionals. It's cute though.
Yeah, I don't know what it is called. My mum hates linen so she said I could have it. Woo! Stuff! I like it, once I stitch it I'll give the finished product back to her.
That's all that really can be said about them, ones a flower, ones a boat, and ones a mouse. Yeah. Maybe some quick finishes will help bring back the bug :P
Anyway, thank you for reading this and thank you for still following me even after my 2 month disappearance XD
Have a great day :)

b. 1930 d. 2017
" What's poetry, if it's worth its salt, / but a phrase men can pass from hand to mouth? Derek Walcott - from 'Forest of Europe' "
Derek Walcott (1930-2017) was awarded the Nobel prize for Literature in 1992, two years after the publication of his most ambitious and celebrated work, Omeros, an epic poem which draws on the Homeric tradition and relocates it in the voices and lives of the people of the Caribbean. His own experience of living in two cultures was a powerful influence on his work; he grew up on the relatively isolated island of Saint Lucia, moved to Trinidad in his twenties, and latterly spent much of his time in the USA, where he taught literature and creative writing at Boston University. This duality brought a richness to his writing: he had deep roots in his native culture and at the same time took possession of his rightful place within the English-speaking literary tradition. As Sean O'Brien has said, "Walcott is faithful to his origins while speaking to the world".
Much of Walcott's work reaches out for an unattainable paradise or utopia which finds its physical parallel in the Caribbean of his childhood. Recurring themes of loss, survival and remembrance are present in 'Sea Canes', an attempt to resurrect the dead through memory, which can be strong and lasting enough to possess "the rational radiance of stone". The desire is to keep faith with reality, to reconstruct the past and its people "as they were, / with faults and all". 'Sea Grapes', the title poem of Walcott's 1976 collection, articulates personal pain and melancholy through an engagement with history and myth; the longing for home and the need for adventure are part of an "ancient war" which will be part of the human condition forever. 'Blues' is situated in a very different place: the America of Walcott's exile, a bewildering place where festival celebrations share the streets with a casual, recreational violence.
There is a resonance and musicality to Walcott's voice which embodies both the formal complexity and sophistication of the work and its intimacy. While he is best known for his poetry, Walcott was also a prolific writer for the stage and for musical theatre, and perhaps it is these disciplines which bring to his reading a sense of drama and a skilful use of silence.
With over twenty collections spanning four decades, Walcott was a towering and influential presence in contemporary poetry. He was an honorary member of the American Academy and the Institute of Arts and Letters, and was awarded the Queen's Gold Medal for Poetry in 1988. His collection 'White Egrets' won the 2010 T. S. Eliot Prize.

The National Coalition needs to learn from the mistakes of its predecessor, the Syrian National Council. It needs to learn that getting recognition, both domestic and international, is hinged on its ability to be efficient in its management of relations with rebel groups, in-country activists and refugees. Its leaders should arrange visits to refugee camps soon, as well as meetings with top defectors, rebels and activists. They should also realize that a government of technocrats should put skill and experience over political ideology and communal background.
Wednesday November 14, 2012
Today's Death Toll: 100. The Breakdown: Toll includes 5 children and 3 women: 37 in Damascus and Suburbs, 16 in Aleppo, 14 in Deir Ezzor, 12 in Idlib, 7 in Daraa, 5 in Homs, 4 in Hama, 3 in Hassakeh, 1 in Lattakia, and 1 in Quneitra (LCC).
Special Reports
When Syria's revolt began as a peaceful protest movement, many participants said it was a moment when hidden views were shared honestly for the first time. They described it as a time that brought fellow Syrians together. But Assad's crackdown has transformed their movement into a bloody armed revolt and the conflict, in which more than 32,000 people have died, is tearing the country apart, dividing friends and families and spinning a web of secrets between neighbors.
Of some 22,000 schools across Syria, more than 2,000 have been damaged or destroyed. Over 800 have been turned into makeshift shelters for refugee families, according to UNICEF. The 2012-13 school year kicked off with a troubled start, though officials said more than five million children joined classes this year. In rebel-held towns besieged and bombed for months, small, informal classes were set up in alleyways to avoid children having to walk very far, says Hussein, an opposition activist in Qusayr, in the central province of Homs. Compounding their difficulties, some displaced children are teased in Damascus by their peers because of their accents, says child psychologist Azza Nasser.
Prime Minister David Cameron will chair a meeting of the National Security Council on Thursday morning which will consider the military, humanitarian and diplomatic options for dealing with the conflict in Syria and the growing refugee crisis on its borders… The prime minister hopes to find a fresh approach which he can persuade US President Barack Obama to pursue with him so that they are not seen to stand aside as thousands die - to repeat what some inside government call "a Kosovo situation".
The street warfare isn't winning the rebels any more friends. The urbane Aleppans have never really warmed to the opposition fighers, most of whom come from religiously conservative Sunni Muslim small-towns–and there is growing concern that the rebels are turning more sectarian. The rebels know they're not really welcome.
A growing chorus of voices, including Zalmay Khalilzad, a former US envoy to the UN, and former State Department policy planner Anne-Marie Slaughter, has called on the administration to provide not only nonlethal technical assistance, but to arm Syria's pro-democratic opposition in order to counter extremists.
The Syrian president's fans are comparing him with the hero of America's Civil War. Here's why they're wrong.
A moderate Muslim preacher who suffered as a freedom fighter in Syria has been chosen as opposition leader to Assad. Now, Moaz al-Khatib must unite a people torn by civil war and religion.
The new leader of Syria's opposition has a history of statements that are anti-Semitic, outrageous, and sometimes downright bizarre. (My Comment: my rebuttal of the views expressed here can be read in my previous post).
Ammar Abdulhamid & Khawla Yusuf: The Shredded Tapestry: The State of Syria Today
President Obama's recent remarks on Syria divulge a more proactive approach towards managing the ongoing conflict there than previously exhibited. Still, the President obviously maintains the same reluctance towards military intervention, even in the form of providing greater support to the opposition beyond nonlethal and humanitarian aid. Still, the statements mark a step in the right direction. The newly formed National Coalition can improve its chances of making this new policy even more open by proceeding with the formation of a technocratic leaning transitional government and an effective military council, as well as by providing a more inclusive vision for Syria's future.
Meanwhile, and while the political processes continue to unfold, developments on the ground are still very much influx. Rebels looked set to liberate the north just a few days ago, but today, they have suffered several reversals, with the town of Khan Shaikhoon falling back to the regime and a major segment of the city of Idlib. The battle and the war are not over yet. Nothing can be taking for granted. The regime continues to receive regular shipment of weapons and supplies from Russia and Iran, but support to rebels' continues to be spotty and irregular, which is not conducive to a situation where momentum can be maintained.
The President's Remarks:
Q. Mr. President, the Assad regime is engaged in a brutal crackdown on its people. France has recognized the opposition coalition. What would it take for the United States to do the same? And is there any point at which the United States would consider arming the rebels?
THE PRESIDENT: I was one of the first leaders I think around the world to say Assad had to go, in response to the incredible brutality that his government displayed in the face of what were initially peaceful protests.
Obviously, the situation in Syria has deteriorated since then. We have been extensively engaged with the international community as well as regional powers to help the opposition. We have committed to hundreds of millions of dollars of humanitarian aid to help folks both inside of Syria and outside of Syria. We are constantly consulting with the opposition on how they can get organized so that they're not splintered and divided in the face of the onslaught from the Assad regime.
We are in very close contact with countries like Turkey and Jordan that immediately border Syria and have an impact -- and obviously Israel, which is having already grave concerns, as we do, about, for example, movements of chemical weapons that might occur in such a chaotic atmosphere and that could have an impact not just within Syria, but on the region as a whole.
I'm encouraged to see that the Syrian opposition created an umbrella group that may have more cohesion than they've had in the past. We're going to be talking to them. My envoys are going to be traveling to various meetings that are going to be taking place with the international community and the opposition.
We consider them a legitimate representative of the aspirations of the Syrian people. We're not yet prepared to recognize them as some sort of government in exile, but we do think that it is a broad-based representative group. One of the questions that we're going to continue to press is making sure that that opposition is committed to a democratic Syria, an inclusive Syria, a moderate Syria.
We have seen extremist elements insinuate themselves into the opposition, and one of the things that we have to be on guard about -- particularly when we start talking about arming opposition figures -- is that we're not indirectly putting arms in the hands of folks who would do Americans harm, or do Israelis harm, or otherwise engage in actions that are detrimental to our national security.
So we're constantly probing and working on that issue. The more engaged we are, the more we'll be in a position to make sure that we are encouraging the most moderate, thoughtful elements of the opposition that are committed to inclusion, observance of human rights, and working cooperatively with us over the long term.
My take on Obama's position can be found here:
On Wednesday, Obama gave no sign though that despite his re-election there would be any major shift yet in his Syria policy.
"The US has been virtually missing in action on Syria so far, but their recent moves, including the push for the formation of the coalition, indicates that they might be ready to adopt a more proactive attitude," said pro-democracy Syrian activist, Ammar Abdulhamid, a fellow at the Foundation for the Defense of Democracies.
"The heavy lifting, though, including arming rebels and perhaps pushing for a de facto no-fly zone, might still be left to other countries at this stage," he told AFP.
US analysts said questions remained over the new coalition, highlighting for example that a Kurdish body had still not joined.
The opposition now needs to work on setting up a transitional government and some form of military council, they said.
"What the United States is looking for... is one military organization where all military aid can be channeled, that in turn can be relied upon to distribute the money among fighting groups inside the country, leaving out the jihadi groups," said Marina Ottaway, senior associate with the Carnegie Endowment for International Peace.
"This is a very admirable plan. I'm not sure that it can work," she told AFP, adding: "The idea that somehow by centralizing the distribution of money the jihadi groups will be cut off, I don't think it's realistic."
Abdulhamid agreed that before the international community could start arming the rebels a "mechanism for vetting groups and delivery channels need to be agreed."
Max Boot has a more nuanced take in Commentary Magazine:
President Obama and the U.S. continue to lag behind in trying to influence events in another important country, in spite of the major role played by American diplomats in helping to organize the Syrian National Coalition. That is a major problem, because there is only so much France—or other states such as Qatar and Turkey, which are eager to topple Bashar Assad—can do.
Only the U.S. can organize a coalition to impose a no-fly zone and thus hasten the end of the barbarous Assad regime. If we fail to act, the humanitarian and strategic costs of the war will continue to grow—as witness recent incidents of Syrian forces directing fire near to, and sometimes over, the borders with Israel and Turkey.
Writing in The Christian Science Monitor, Bilal Saab, executive director and head of research and public affairs of the Institute for Near East and Gulf Military Analysis (INEGMA), argues that
Obama's policy of 'staying the course' in Syria should be weighed against worsening strategic realities in the country and region. Only a careful military program to help the rebels, including arming and training them, can stem the growing costs of US inaction.
For his part, Thomas Friedman advocates a policy of convincing Russia to "fall on the grenade" and "midwife a transition process in Syria. But that would be the equivalent of flipping Russia from herself, which is even more out there than the idea of flipping Syria from Iran by engaging Iran. Putin & Co. are more likely to midwife a process that will take us back to Assad's bosom, than away from Assad's rule. The truth is Syrians don't need anyone to fall on his sword or grenade for them. Rebels simply need support, and midwifing a transition process can still happen from a safe distance, for now. Further delays will definitely change this calculus, and we could indeed face a "Kosovo Situation," or worse, a regional meltdown brought about by an imploding/exploding Syria, as Friedman himself has argued.

DC Turns Uslan & Bullock's "Batman: Black and White" Story Into Silent Film
Credit where credit is due — DC Comics has certainly found a unique way to promote its upcoming "Batman: Black and White" #2. The publisher has posted a video that turns Michael Uslan and Dave Bullock's short story "Silent Knight… Unholy Knight!" into a silent film trailer complete with old-timey orchestral music, tears in the film and silent film captions.
Posted earlier today on DC Comics' YouTube Channel, the 40-second trailer heavily features Bullock's artwork with limited animation, which lends itself incredibly well to the video presentation. While the trailer doesn't reveal much of what to expect from the story beyond Bullock's artwork, it's certainly one of the more creative pieces of promotion seen in recent memory.
"Batman: Black and White" #2 hits stores October 2.

Last season, when senior forward Thomas Chameraud got frustrated, he would sometimes mutter something in French under his breath.
Standing near the playing field, Alex Balog would only shake his head and chuckle.
Balog would smile, knowing only he and the player from France understood what was being said.
This fall, it will be even tougher for Montana State Billings men's soccer players to vent their aggravation in another language.
Because most likely, it will be one of the six that Balog converses in fluently.
The multi-lingual Balog was introduced Tuesday afternoon as the sixth head coach in the history of the Yellowjackets' program. He replaces Dan McNally, who left in February to become an assistant coach at the University of Cincinnati, a Division I program.
MSUB is the only NCAA men's soccer program in the state.
"I'm honored and excited to continue the work that Dan McNally started,'' said Balog, a lean 32-year-old native of Belgium. "We want to take the program to the next level, which means winning the Great Northwest Athletic Conference."
Balog inherits a team that finished 11-5-2 last year. He was an assistant for two seasons before becoming the interim head coach on Feb. 15.
In that time, he coordinated all of the spring workouts and recruited 15 new players to MSUB for next season.
"I had to perform exactly like I was the head coach,'' Balog said. "If there was any doubt, the players would catch on. I was here sometimes at two, three in the morning making phone calls to the international players.
"I had to make the situation (his interim status) clear right away. But I had to believe I would be given the chance to become the head coach. I tried to be positive. But that's how I am. Not just for now, but in my life."
Balog was chosen from a field of 67 candidates. The MSUB search committee narrowed the list to five phone interviews and had two on-campus visits before selecting Balog last week.
Balog picked up his language skills as the goalkeeper for Christian Brothers University in Tennessee and playing professionally in Belgium, Greece, Hungary and England.
He joined the MSUB staff in 2011 after coaching stints in Alabama.
"I thought this would be a good opportunity to get my foot in the door as a Division II head coach,'' said Balog. "I know the team, I know the city, I know the challenges. There are a lot of good things in place here to be successful."
Along with English and French, Balog can hold meaningful dialogues in German, Hungarian, Dutch and Greek.
"It's an advantage when it comes to recruiting,'' he said of the language skills.
And on the field, Balog added. "When I made an adjustment in French last year with Thomas, it might take the other team five minutes to catch on,'' he continued. "If I did it in English, the other team would know right away."
Balog will need to tap into those various forms of dialect when camp begins in August. If everybody shows, the Yellowjackets will feature players from eight countries and seven states.
However, Balog's true test will not be speaking soccer in so many different ways – soccer is a universal language -- but getting the players to play soccer on the same page.
"We open with a 12-day road trip to California,'' he said. "I really believe that will set the tone for our season.
"The players we have coming back and the players we brought in are all good soccer players. I can't wait until our season is started."
And he's also brushing up on his Spanish.

Click here [pdf] for more information about Summer Physics 2018.
Is there class/lab/SGL on Memorial Day?
No. Memorial Day is a national and Summer Physics holiday.
Can I take the final a day or two early? I have a wedding/summer camp job/other important thing that conflicts with the last week of the class.
It might be possible to take the final exam on the last Thursday afternoon of class instead of Friday morning. It would not be possible to take it any earlier than that because there would be class/lab/etc that would be missed. The professor advises against taking the final on Thursday afternoon because that will significantly decrease the amount of time for studying and will likely decrease the final exam grade.

Using the appropriate adapter, you can connect an iMac to an external display. Apple iMacs manufactured since mid-2011 have a Thunderbolt port compatible with Apple Thunderbolt monitors; however, you can also use any computer monitor with a VGA port if you have the right adapter. Using the extended desktop option, you can use the external display to increase the size of your work area, which can be a real time-saver if you do a lot of multitasking, use large spreadsheets or use your iMac for video or graphic design work. The 27-inch iMac can accommodate two external displays.
Inspect the connection ports on the external display. Most computer displays have a VGA port, and some models may have a DVI or HDMI port. Any of these are compatible with an iMac Thunderbolt port. If you aren't certain what the monitor's connection ports are, consult the user manual or look at the product specifications for the display model on the manufacturer's website.
Verify that your iMac has a Thunderbolt port by looking for a lightning bolt symbol beside the port. If the iMac was manufactured between 2009 and mid-2011, it has a Mini DisplayPort instead. You can verify which video port your iMac has on Apple's How to Identify Your iMac page (see Resources.)
Purchase the appropriate cable for the monitor and the appropriate Mini DisplayPort adapter to connect the iMac to the cable. You can find adapters at the Apple Store or most stores that sell Apple computers. Both Thunderbolt ports and Mini DisplayPorts use the same Mini DisplayPort adapter and can be connected to a VGA, DVI or HDMI port on an external display with an appropriate adapter.
Connect the adapter to the iMac, connect the cable to the adapter and then connect the cable to the external display. Connect the external display to a power source, and then turn on the external display. Wait a few seconds for the display to show the iMac's screen.
Launch "System Preferences" from the Apple menu on the iMac's desktop, and then select "Displays." Click "Detect Displays" if the iMac has not recognized the external display.
Configure the external display to mirror the iMac's display by setting both displays at the same resolution and then selecting "Mirror Displays" in the Arrangement tab.
Configure the external display as an extended desktop by clicking the "Arrangement" tab and following the on-screen instructions.
- If you are not certain which ports your iMac has, you can check to see what model you have using Apple's support website (see Resources).

Chinese 'highway house' is demolished
A five-storey house, which was marooned in the middle of a new road in
China for more than a year because its owner refused to leave, has
finally been demolished.
The road, in China's eastern Zhejiang province,
was built around the house because duck farmer Luo Baogen was holding
out for more compensation, reports the BBC. Luo, 67, said he had just
finished the home at a cost of $95,000 and had been offered only $35,000 to move.

Are you suffering from BURNOUT?
"We are not health care professionals, we are holiday planning specialists. The info that follow, is sharing with you my own journey & practical experience…"
– Hennie Albertse, Co-Founder of LifeChanging-Holidays.com
What is Burnout?
The following are all aspects & symptoms of "Burnout":
Intense Stress – Depression – Physical, Emotional, and Mental Exhaustion – Chronic fatigue, feeling as if your energy levels are depleted – Being Negative and Critical – Avoid people or social activities – Irritable – A compromised immune system resulting in physical illness – Emotional Eating or other compulsive comforting mediums – Disillusionment – Frustration – Resentfulness – Suicide thoughts – Anxiety – Trouble Sleeping – Forgetfulness – Lack of concentration – Low or absent sex drive – Escape in TV viewing when not working – Unachieved deadlines & responsibilities resulting in an overwhelming feeling of guilt – Restlessness – Lack of Creativity – Little ambition and feelings of hopelessness…
It does not mean if you have an occasional "low", you suffer from Burnout, but if most of the aspects above summarize you, then you should see "Red Lights"… Burnout is serious and should not be taken lightly. Even an early stage of Burnout should receive immediate attention; the longer you wait – the longer the recovery period.
In 2002 my warning lights went on as I was experiencing most of the symptoms explained above. I held a senior position at a Marketing & Advertising Firm trying to do 3 people's work due to staff retrenchments. I found myself working 6-7 days a week at ridiculous hours trying to keep my boss, clients and suppliers happy. Finally my body said 'enough is enough' and my immune system could not take the stress any longer. It took me about 3 months (of hell!) to recover. For some it may take up to 3 years.
This section of our website is not to convince you with long list of statistics; neither to give pseudo "quick-fix" answers. It is a process and recovery should be approached holitically.
The solution?
Every person's condition is different and should be treated differently. There are guidelines that may help you, for instance: Choosing a low impact exercise that works for you; Taking nutritional supplements, Changing your diet & choosing healthy alternatives that give you energy; Delegate (even if you are convinced that those you delegate to will not do the job as good as you can); Practice the life-saving word, 'NO!'; to name a few, but here are the 3 most important solutions to look at:
- Medical Treatment: Please make an appointment with your preferred medical practitioner ASAP. Although similar in many facets you may suffer from (a) Burnout, (b) Depression, (c) Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, (d) Fibromyalgia, (e) or other related conditions or a combination of 'a-d'. The correct medical treatment, supervision & taking the right medication is of utmost importance. Your condition is NOT a "Life sentence". Please banish any thoughts of shamefulness. Reaching out for medical help and taking the right medication, might be the smartest thing you have done this year!
- Vacation Therapy: If you are in the fortunate position that you employer compensates for "over-time", insist on vacation time; not money. Even if no compensation is offered or even if you are self employed or a mom at home, take time out. For some it may mean taking a series of mini-breaks, for other it may mean taking all your anual leave and going on a vacation and for others is may mean taking a 6 – 12 month Sabbatical. Cancel your plans to feel guilty & contact us for a customized holiday to cater for YOUR SPESIFIC needs… Having the symptoms of Burnout will not really excite you to pull up your sleeves, doing research and start planning your own holiday. This is where we would love to serve you! Sit back & relax – while we do everything for you!… Click here for suggested itineraries OR here for suggested accommodation providers that is suitable for your needs…
- Support & Guidance: Asking for prayer, ministry & support from your spiritual community will make an enormous difference. Additionally we would advice to commit to professional counseling & coaching. Counseling deals with issues of the past; while Coaching deals with strategies for the future. If you suffer from Burnout or any of the conditions mentioned in '1', a whole new 'Lifestyle Plan' of action is needed. One of the most valuable things I've learned was to make a list of (a) things that drains my energy and (b) things that energize me; one can also ask, "What are the things that fills my 'cup' and what are the things that drains the life out of me?"… Knowing these things and focusing on things that energize you; things that fill your cup – might be the deciding factor between life & death!

When I attempt to visualize what Northampton might have looked like in its pre-metropolitan era, I find myself relying upon images from Revolutionary times: tri-cornered hats, elaborate candelabra, horse parking. I can't reasonably imagine a Northampton emptied of its coffee shops and thigh-tattooed pedestrians, its tearooms and bird-watching shops. But it's particularly difficult for me to imagine a Northampton that lacks its improbably diverse array of restaurants: Tibetan, Argentinean, Greek, Italian, Chinese, Japanese, Thai, Indian. When did our quaint mountain town, population less than or equal to 30,000, become the ethno-culinary Fertile Crescent we now know it to be?
There is a complex and ultra-rational tale to be told that describes the transformation from Revolutionary then to tea-steeping now. Such a tale would inevitably involve influxes and outfluxes of all economic varieties, along with ever-adjusting supply and demand curves. Seeing that I am no developmental economist, I cannot in good conscience undertake such a scholarly project. Alternatively, I challenged myself to ask simpler, bite-sized questions of those who know better, nevertheless seeking a rational explanation to resolve my historical quandaries. After a few hours of soft investigative work, I wound up outside of India House, one of Western Massachusetts' very first Indian restaurants and a veritable Northampton institution.
I'm standing on State Street just outside the restaurant, preparing myself to bombard India House's owners with practical questions (e.g. "Where were you in January, 1981, Mr. and Mrs. Kanoujia?"). As soon as I reach the top step of the front stoop, I'm suddenly stuck frozen in my tracks, unable to move forward. I've walked straight into a wall of smell, wonderfully elaborate and yet composed of familiar, contrasting scents: sweet and spicy, salty and sour: undeniably entrancing.
This disarming olfactory encounter set the stage for what would become an enlightening 90 minutes with India House's Alka Kanoujia. Boy, were my initial journalistic impulses misguided! How foolish of me to believe that I could understand the transition from then to now in strictly rational terms! The story behind this longstanding restaurant is much sweeter and much spicier, much saltier and more sour than I could have imagined.
Speaking with Alka about her family's restaurant is like speaking with the Dalai Lama about the nature of reality. This is a woman who stumbled upon the great work of her life—India House—as if it were a fatalistically determined event, as if she were chosen. "This," she tells me more than once, "is exactly where I belong." Her voice is serious—urgent, even—and filled with a pure, exuberant joy. Her expression, likewise, saunters indeterminately, caught somewhere in between pursed lips and easy smile.
Alka grew up in New Delhi and came to the U.S. at the age of 19. She met her husband Omprakash Kanoujia (Omi), in Chicago, and they were married. Shortly thereafter, the newlyweds relocated to Cambridge so that Omi could attend Boston University.
Alka happened to venture westward to the Pioneer Valley in 1981 to help a family friend take care of her new baby. "I fell in love with the area, and I just said to my husband, 'Wouldn't it be lovely if we could live here?'" She makes sturdy, gentle eye contact as she relates the sparse details of her relocation. "There was no hustle and bustle at that time."
In October of 1984, some three years later, India House's doors opened. "We were both very good at cooking," she tells me with unmistakable earnestness. "When the restaurant happened, it was beautiful." And just as Omi and Alka welcomed their new business endeavor into the world, so too would they welcome their first child, Amit, in October. She chuckles to herself modestly, "He brought the restaurant with him! This is what he tells me." Three years later Alka gave birth to her second child, Anjula.
Through an extensive and complicated series of events (that you'll have to ask Alka about yourself), both Anjula and Amit ended up back at India House. "You know how the saying goes," Alka tells me, stifling a contented smile. "You have to set them free. So we never actually pushed—we never pushed—it was something they had to see." After the trials and tribulations of childhood, Indian boarding school and personal introspection, both Amit and Anjula found themselves back in Northampton. "They're both very much at home here," Alka assures me. Indeed they are, I think to myself.
The story of India House—as cheesy as it may sound—is the story of family members who each realized their destinies under a single roof. Alka finds it helpful to represent her relatives as different parts of a tree. Her husband, Omi, is "like [the trunk of] a banyan tree, with great strength and dignity, providing comfort and compassion." Amit, who manages the kitchen, and Anjula, who manages the dining room, "are his branches, under his guidance, performing to ensure that our patrons receive the best from us, which is food prepared with love and care, hospitality and warmth." And Alka, though she was reluctant to categorize herself, strikes me as the roots of the tree: nourishing and stabilizing, maternal and steadfast.
This is all to say very little about the food that India House serves, about which I could ramble on for pages. Everything—and I mean everything—is made from scratch in-house. The Kanoujias own two authentic tandoori ovens, clay-made, imported from India, that run on charcoal. Alka develops all the recipes herself, but because she suffers from a series of severe food allergies (gluten, dairy, soy, eggs, corn, coconut), she can never taste the food she prepares.
"People always ask us, 'How can you do this?' And I tell them, 'Because you truly have to want to do it,'" she says, glowing as she speaks, "'you have to want to do it.' And I do. So it works! And it's beautiful when it works." Alka has committed herself to a mission of dietary accommodation. "Nobody will take your order but us, my husband, I, and my children, precisely because it is a very personalized menu. This is something we created because we know exactly what goes into the making of each and every single dish."
This is all to say very little about the aesthetic of the restaurant itself. Every single chair and table and window screen is custom-built for the restaurant, made from the finest Indian materials: dark, smoky woods with complementary golden accents. Alka herself lights candles at each and every table each and every night of the week. She tells me, as she shows me around, "Ours is not a very late-night restaurant. We are done by 9:30. Each day, I go home happy that I've done something so good today."
Standing in the center of the dining room, I take a few moments to look around. The place bleeds with the thoughtfulness of family; it's a real house, I'm thinking to myself, and just then I look over and see Alka re-centering a candle on a table she designed. It's still the early afternoon. I'm looking at the back of her head, but I know for certain that her expression is sauntering between pursed lips and easy smile, as it so often does.
Very much like losing oneself in the unfamiliar familiarity of a wafting scent, I have descended into journalistic details that have cast me quite far from my initial questions. How did Northampton become the ethno-culinary Fertile Crescent we now know it to be? How did we transition from historical then to historical now? After spending time with Alka in her sanctuary, I'd be remiss not to acknowledge the ebbs and flows of invisible, fatalistic forces. Perhaps these pseudo-spiritual speculations—lofty and amorphous as they may smell—can help satiate my curiosity. Or perhaps I've found myself a bit too entranced by India House's mysterious, olfactory allure.
Either way, the Kanoujias are a family that have dedicated themselves to serving the Northampton community delicious, authentic, thoughtfully constructed Indian delicacies since 1984, long before my time in this world. I suppose it's not so important to understand how they came to be here, after all.•

Lilly digs deeper into Alzheimer's
Lilly, which is simultaneously expanding its diabetes presence, is in a unique place among its peers in the Alzheimer's field. Whereas Pfizer and Johnson & Johnson ditched their low-expectations Alzheimer's treatment bapineuzumab last August, and Sanofi told the crowds at the San Diego PhRMA conference it was avoiding the field altogether, Lilly has been standing fast. Like bapineuzumab, Lilly's contender, solanezumab, failed to wow physicians or analysts as clinical trial results rolled in last year. The company spun the results as marking a decent, if modest, advance, and they did not harm company reputation on Wall Street, but only because analysts had not included the drugs in their financial models for Lilly. The "OK" framing was possible when the company uncoupled results for global and cognitive function and presented the results independently. The drawback at the time was that it meant resetting the endpoints, in addition to sidestepping FDA requirements that Alzheimer's medications show progress on both fronts. Solanezumab acts on beta-amyloid proteins.
The FDA's position on the two-for-one results has since shifted, and the regulator issued draft guidance in February outlining the sort of changes it was considering. FDA's head of neurology, Russell Katz, even went so far as to explain the proposed revisions in a Perspectives piece that ran in the New England Journal of Medicine in March. In addition to noting the slew of failures, Katz wrote that studies are increasingly focused on early-stage patients, when cognitive and or global function impairment may not be in synch and "it might be feasible to approve a drug through the FDA's accelerated approval pathway on the basis of assessment of cognitive outcome alone."
When Lilly released its disappointing results in August it noted that if it pooled results from two studies and focused only on cognitive function that the treatment did slow the decline among patients with mild forms of Alzheimer's.
Part of the urgency behind the field's research is the impact the disease is going to have. Alzheimer's is currently cited as the cause of one in every 6 US deaths, and the Alzheimer's Association projects that 7.1 million people 65 and older will have Alzheimer's in 10 years. That's a 40% increase from the 5.1 million who now have the disease and it's expected to jump to between 14 million and 16 million by 2050 -- a 180% increase from current levels. On the financial side, the Association noted that caregivers, who provide aid such as getting into and out of bed, feeding, dressing, bathing and managing incontinence, provided $216.4 billion in unpaid care in 2012. The association's report indicates that $203 billion will be spent on paid care this year, for services including healthcare, long-term care, and hospice, and expects this number to hit $1.2 trillion in current dollars in the next 12 years.

Information for Landlords
The Warren County Landlords Association meets monthly at 200 East Harlem Avenue (Oak Terrace). Please call the Warren County Housing Authority for information: (309) 734-2080.
Below you will find information related to owning rental residential properties within the city limits of Monmouth.
Landlords and the Illinois Lead Poisoning Prevention Act
Illinois has new amendments to the Lead Poisoning Prevention Act, which went into effect on January 1, 2017. The amendments are about mitigation notices for lead paint hazards. While the Zoning Department does not inspect for lead, landlords should be aware of their responsibilities to provide their tenants with certain disclosures.
According to the Illinois Department of Public Health, "Lead poisoning, the number one environmental illness of children, is caused primarily by lead-based paint in older homes. While Illinois has made great progress in recent years, we maintain one of the highest rates in the nation for the number of children with elevated blood lead levels. The most common exposure to lead by children is through the ingestion of paint chips and contaminated dust from deteriorated or disturbed lead-based paint in homes built before 1978. About 75 percent of Illinois homes built before 1978 contain some lead-based paint" (IDPH website).
You can read about the amendments on the Illinois General Assembly website. Richard Magnone's "A Blog for Landlords" website also has a reader-friendly version of the new amendments.
Rental Registration
Landlords must register each local rental property (not rental unit) they own. Non-local landlords are required to indicate a local agent for their property.
During October, there are no fees to register rental properties. From November through September, standard rental registration fees apply.
If you have already registered your properties (one registration per rental property), simply call the Zoning Office at (309) 734-7590 to verify your information. If you have not registered a property, you can use the online form below, or you can visit the City Hall Zoning Office to register a rental property in person.
Online Rental Registration Form (use for newly registered properties)
Online Re-Registration Form (use if there are no changes to a previously registered property)
Rental FAQs
We've compiled a list of frequently asked questions from landlords about our rental registration and inspection program (called the Property Enhancement Program). To access the FAQ list, either use the FAQs menu to the left, under the Main Menu, or click the link below.
Landlord/Tenant Checklist
It's often a good idea for a landlord and a new tenant to do a quick walkthrough together of a rental dwelling as part of the lease-signing process. It's an opportunity for both parties to get on the same page as to the state of the rental unit before the tenant moves in. The checklist below can be a helpful tool for both parties and it can provide protection for the landlord if there are later issues about missing smoke detector batteris and such. Feel free to use as-is or modify for your own needs.
Rental Dwelling Requirements
There are minimum requirements that a rental dwelling must conform to based on the zoning district the property is located in. The sheet below is a quick but helpful checklist of what is required to turn a property into a rental dwelling and the requirements of the zoning district it is located in.
Rental Inspection Criteria
A rental registration and inspection program is part of the City's larger Property Enhancement initiative. The goal of the program is to provide safe and secure rental properties for Monmouth residents who chose to rent. Inspections are conducted by the Monmouth Fire Department, with a focus on life safety, backed up by both the International Fire Prevention Code and the International Property Maintenance Code, both adopted by the City.
The document linked below is the listing of all areas that a rental inspector will be looking at, backed up by the related code. Our goal is to provide as much information as possible to inform our landlords and the community as a whole on on our efforts to enhance our residential building stock here in Monmouth.
Tenants are encouraged to ask landlords for copies of their rental inspection certificates before they sign a lease. If a landlord's property has not yet been inspected, they can simply call the Zoning Office to schedule an inspection (309-734-7590).

When we think of poker, there is a good chance a western cowboy movie, with cowboy characters sitting around a table playing cards come to mind. This is the classic image of poker that has been seared into many people's minds. This would be the old fashion version of the game we know as poker. There may not be many cowboys left playing poker in seedy bars, but the enthusiasm and following that poker enjoys have not diminished. In fact, it has only grown in recent years. Instead of the old fashion brick and mortar poker joints, with cards made from paper, it is morphing into a game played with a computer mouse. In short, as with many games and entertainment, poker is evolving with the times. This is good news for those of us who enjoy playing a card game, especially for the money, in our pajamas.
Online vs Traditional
A traditional poker online game, as those of us who have played know, involves close contact with our fellow players. We sit around the table, someone shuffles the cards and distributes them. After the cards, have been passed around, we look at what we've been served. This is a pivotal moment in a traditional game. Because this is when we read our opponents reaction and observe body language. In the world of poker, this is called a "tell". Gauging our opponents tell, we make decisions regarding how much to bet and when to fold the cards. In other words, there is a certain physicality to the game. Players who are good at reading body language, invariably go on to become great poker players. It wouldn't be wrong to say that poker is more of a psychological game, rather than a card game. This isn't the case with online poker.
Pokers and Pyjamas
Online poker is a whole different animal. When the cards have been "dealt" we make our decisions strictly based on the cards served. The obvious reason for this is because we do not see our opponents. All we have to go by is the level of confidence our opponents are showing by their betting strategy, not by the story their body language is saying. So, what's the fun in that? Some may ask. Well, it all depends on what people are comfortable with. One of the biggest reasons why online poker is very popular is that it is far less intimidating, especially for novices. The thought of walking into a casino and sitting with strangers to play will be enough to scare off many people. The idea of being able to play in the comfort and privacy of one's own home is alluring.
Legit Poker
Having said all that, it is important to do your homework before joining an online poker website. The simple reason is there are scam sites operating from a place where playing a game for money, is simply not legal. If they get caught, then the legal complications of doing business with such an enterprise, is anyone's guess. Those types of companies are only interested in getting your credit card number. However, if all is good to go, then playing online poker can be tremendous fun.

Richard Forster
This is a past exhibition which ran from 29 August 2015 to 28 February 2016.
Richard Forster makes super realistic drawings from photographs rather than from life - either using his own snapshots, or images found in magazines, books or on the internet. His choice of subjects is diverse but they are brought together by an underlying interest in measuring his experience of the world. Common to them all is a documentary approach to time and its passing, and a sense of the place of the individual within the collective.

Nine years ago Barbara Walters interviewed the Dalai Lama. The interview is available on You Tube (9:17).
The interview covers an amazing amount of ground about Buddhism and His Holiness. It showcases his no-nonsense, disarming humility and his endearing giggle. The interview leaves the viewer with a clear sense of why he is admired and revered by hundreds of millions.
The Dalai Lama (Tenzin Gyatso) is believed to be the 14th incarnation of The Buddha (Gautama Buddha). He is often referred to as the "heavenly deity of compassion and wisdom." Many Buddhists believe he is a god. When questioned by Walters, he denied being a deity, saying he is a teacher. He laughed and commented that he had an eye irritation and that shouldn't happen if he is a god.
Walters described him as "the world's foremost scholar in his very complex faith." Buddhists do not believe in God the way Christians do, but they do believe some kind of heaven exists. Ancient Tibetan texts describe six distinct levels of heaven and six nightmarish levels of hell. When asked about the Buddhist vision of heaven, he described it as a very happy, very pleasant place, the best place to refine one's practice of Buddhism.
For Buddhists, heaven is not a destination, but a place to visit temporarily. A place to go to continue to reincarnate until they become a buddha (enlightened one). Good compassionate people reincarnate as people, and bad people as animals. For example, a good dog may reincarnate as a person, and a bad person as a dog. From the Buddhist point of view, everyone is reborn (reincarnated) repeatedly.
As a three-year-old, he underwent testing before he was proclaimed the 14th Dalai Lama. During the testing, he pointed to objects that belonged to the 13th Dalai Lama. He said as a child he had clear memories of a past life, but now he does not.
Walters explained that Buddhists believe the ultimate goal is nirvana or enlightenment, which is a state of all-knowing contentment. The Dalai Lama explained that once you eliminate all negative emotions, you automatically become enlightened and enter Nirvana. Walters asked him, are you enlightened? He answered no. He said he does not know what will happen tonight, and that he is having trouble with his memory. He added, if he was enlightened, he would not be forgetful. He said he sees himself as just another human being, nothing special, nothing more. It is this humility that endears him to so many.
Gyatso is the first Dalai Lama ever to travel outside of Tibet. He is an ambassador of Buddhism recognized world-wide as a symbol of compassionate, non-violent living. Before an audience of 65,000 people in New York's Central Park, Richard Gere introduced him as "one of the great beings perhaps to ever walk on this planet. . . ."
Walters asked the Dalai Lama what the purpose of life is, and he replied that the purpose is to be happy and is accomplished by warm-heartedness. That compassion gives inner strength, and changes our attitudes and the way we see things. When asked if the world is closer to heaven or to hell, he replied closer to heaven.
Moved by the time with him, Walters concluded her time with him by requesting if she could kiss him on his cheek. He permitted it and giggled. Then he showed her a New Zealand kiss and touched noses with her.
The interview raised some key concerns about the efficacy of Buddhism as a path to enlightenment and nirvana. If the Dalai Lama has not attained enlightenment, then who has? Attaining enlightenment is the only real way to be liberated from the suffering of this world, and from repeatedly being reincarnated into that same world of suffering. Only a very small number of Buddhists have "made it," even in the 2,500 years that Buddhism has existed as a religion. This stands in sharp contrast to Christianity and Islam, where a high percentage of adherents believe that they will be freed from suffering when they enter heaven (or paradise). The difference is that in these two theistic religions, God (or Allah) is believed to do what no human being can—provide a way of liberation from this very troublesome world and the great limitations that plague all human beings.
If the Dalai Lama is "just another human being, nothing special, nothing more," and is not enlightened, then is he really qualified to speak with such authority as a teacher? While his humility is disarming, it is also unsettling.
All this reminds me of the painfully honest confession of Bruce Newman, author of A Beginner's Guide to Tibetan Buddhism. He noted,
When I look back on my twenty-three years of practice, I can't but help but feel deeply disappointed by how little progress I've made in my meditation. In a sense, I've done most things right—I've played by the book, so to speak. Why then have the experiences of meditation, so tantalizing, been beyond my reach? Don't get me wrong, it's not as if nothing has happened; it's just that progress has been painfully slow.[i]
While one may question the efficacy of sudden conversions in Christianity for many of its faltering followers, we also encounter many Christians who dramatically changed for the better overnight, or nearly so. This phenomenon is absent in Buddhism, where spiritual growth is "painfully slow."
[i] Bruce Newman, A Beginner's Guide to Tibetan Buddhism, (Ithaca, New York: Snow Lions Prod., 2004), 71.

Two girls have been arrested for breaking into a southwest Florida elementary school.
PORT CHARLOTTE | Two girls have been arrested for breaking into a southwest Florida elementary school.
Charlotte County Sheriff's detectives arrested two girls, ages 11 and 13, for burglary and petty theft Friday, alleging the girls broke into the school, hid in the bathroom until everyone left and spent the night at Neil Armstrong Elementary School.
Authorities said one of the girls used Facebook to give false information about where they were, sending authorities all over town when they disappeared last month. Deputies said they girls made prank calls to six teachers from school phones and surfed the Internet on school computers.
One of the girl's fathers got a tip about where they were and picked them up the next day.
The Associated Press is not naming the girls because they are minors.

Phenomenal Woman of the Week #11: Meet Victoria
2. Age:
3. Where are you from?
Miami, FL
4. Describe yourself in 3 words.
Passionate, Creative & Introverted
5. Explain why you chose those 3 words.
I chose passionate because I find that so many people lack passion for something in this life. I'm passionate about what I do and the goals I have set for my life. Passion makes all the difference in the things you do. Creative is another thing I think so many lack or are less in tune with. I put the word creative because it's not always a trait you'll blatantly see from me, but rather it's in my thought process and thinking. I'm constantly thinking of things to create once I have the money to do so. Lastly, introverted is always one of the words I use to describe myself. I think it's important for people to understand that when I say introvert I always use the definition of "someone who thrives off of being alone and being preoccupied in their thoughts". I am that person to a T. I prefer being alone, working alone and just having minimal people around me for minimal periods of time. As a blogger people seem to think I'm quite the opposite, but don't let my blog or Instagram fool you!
6. What is something that you are passionate about?
I am passionate about my blogging network, Black Bloggers United. I started the network over a year ago and have literally seen the growth in the brand, the bloggers within and myself. I'm passionate about growing this because I have seen in just a year's time how much it can do for people and how much of an impact I can have on the world. Seeing the potential and all the people I can assist drives me to continue to do better every single day.
7. Who is the most phenomenal woman you know? Why?
The most phenomenal woman I know would probably be my best friend Ashley. No matter what's happening in the world, with her family, with herself, she always manages to push through giving 100% effort and with a bright smile on her face. She is a phenomenal woman for being so strong and always finding the good in this world.
8. What does being a phenomenal woman mean to you?

Kim Curtis: DRIVE
Whether it is farmland under January ice, oceans of corn and soy in August, the turned, black Earth of December, or seas of Prairie Grass in July, the vast Illinois countryside can seem monotonous.
Climb into a car however, and you have the kinetic feedback of constant, repetitive pattern; geometry, color and light quickly shifting along these vast areas of open space. Machinery and granaries, ice beds and their sky's reflection all compete for the brain's attention as it quickly processes the simultaneous input of abstractions. We understand too quickly and lose the chance to revel in nameless shapes, foreign color and reiterating pattern.
The paintings in Kim Curtis's new show DRIVE at kasia kay art projects will investigate and highlight these moving abstractions, bringing to light the elements of nature that are so easily passed by and overlooked.
Kim Curtis comes to painting from a rich background in theatrical costume design. She holds a degree from UC Berkeley in History of Art as well as in Painting from the California College of Arts and Crafts. Both her costume work and her study of art have brought her to work extensively abroad, mainly in Italy and Germany. Curtis has exhibited her work in solo exhibitions at kasia kay art projects, the Illinois Institute for Research in the Humanities, and Isabelle Percy West Galley, Oakland; and in numerous group shows, including at kasia kay art projects, Chicago; Bleu Acier Gallery, Tampa, FL; TOJO Art Gallery, Chicago; Springfield Art Association, Springfield; and Woman Made Gallery, Chicago. Curtis also has works in private collections. She now paints in her studio in Urbana, IL.

From Canal Fulton, Ohio, USA:
I understand that one of the rare side effects of the flu shot is Guillain-Barré syndrome. Since individuals with type 1 diabetes are more at risk for other autoimmune diseases, can I assume that my child will have more of a risk of this side effect with the flu shot?
There is no evidence of which I am aware of any different side effect profile with or without diabetes when getting flu shots. The autoimmune disorders more likely with type 1 diabetes are Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Addison's, celiac, and/or pernicious anemia, not Guillain-Barré.
