Top economic institutes say Germany's economy is picking up despite the turmoil of the European debt crisis.
The institutes raised their growth forecast for this year to 0.9 percent from a forecast of 0.8 percent in their last outlook in October.
In a twice-yearly report, the economists said steps taken by European Union leaders had eased turbulence on financial markets and reduced economic uncertainty that had been weighing on growth. German business are more optimistic and low unemployment is making consumers more confident and willing to spend money.
However they said high borrowing costs for Spain and Italy show that "the debt and confidence crisis continues to smolder."

Both books in the FTW series collected as a single volume.
- Released: January 27th, 2017
- Pages: 421
Because I know there are many people who prefer to buy a series as a "boxed" set, I've also released Boneyards and Badlands as a single volume. You can save yourself a few dollars when you buy this way as well, as I've priced it lower than the total of buying each separately.
You can read a sample section of Boneyards & Badlands here or buy as an eBook or Paperback from Amazon. Paperback is also available in most bookstores where awesome books like mine are sold.
From Book 1 – Boneyards:
"My name is Echo Fox and I'm a scrapper. I live at the bottom of your world, in the place you don't think about. We call it the boneyard and it's filled with your waste."
Echo Fox lives in a boneyard, a brutal existence where your life can be cut short in a heartbeat. Everything beyond the walls including the air you breathe is controlled by one company: FTW.
When her friend Kara is murdered by outsiders, Echo vows revenge on the people who took it. Leaving the only life she knows behind her, Echo goes from the lowest place on Earth to where nothing is beyond her reach.
In this world beyond her imagination, what she finds could mean the end of her life as well.
From Book 2 – Badlands:
Echo is lost. Kara is on the run. Old enemies return.
Just when they thought they were safe, their world turns upside down. Echo is captured and Kara must flee the city to save herself.
Everything beyond the city walls is known as the Badlands: a deadly and desolate place stretching between the towering cities of the east and west coasts.
In the Badlands live the worst of the worst, and they're hungry for fresh meat. At the same time, the Badlands may hold the final hope for salvation.
With FTW and even Echo working against her, can Kara survive long enough to take down FTW once and for all and get back her lost love?
You can read a sample section of Boneyards & Badlands here or buy as an eBook or Paperback from Amazon. Paperback is also available in most bookstores where awesome books like mine are sold.

When Miles was four he spent Christmas Day "entertaining" his relatives by playing along to Slade records with his new toy drum-kit. Twenty-nine years later the 'Miles Mendoza Website of the Day' made its debut on Radio 2, and since that day Radio 2 listeners have been unanimous in wishing that Miles had stuck to drumming.

Big Brother star Jade Goody has proved to be the most mourned celebrity this year, according to Associated Northcliffe Digital's website Lasting Tribute.
The national and regional newspaper publisher's website is an interactive online equivalent of the newspaper death notices page. So far it has attracted more than 1.3 million tributes for celebrities and ordinary members of the public.
It said an online memorial for the mother-of-two received the most hits of any celebrity this year – even more than Michael Jackson, who died in July.
Goody's page attracted more messages and images than any other famous person on the site, and more than 600 people left messages to the star.
Michael Jackson has received the second largest number of tributes on the site, and other popular celebrity tributes include actress Natasha Richardson, film star Patrick Swayze and Boyzone star Stephen Gately.
Lasting Tribute has also attracted contributions for soldiers and former soldiers, whether veterans like Harry Patch, the last British survivor from the First World War trenches who died in July, or Royal Marine Danny Winter, who died in Afghanistan in January.
Managing director Elaine Pritchard said: "We are very proud that so many people feel comfortable using our website to pay their respects publicly to their own loved ones as well as to celebrities and people in the public eye.
"It is good to hear from bereaved family members that they are comforted by the public expression of sympathy on Lasting Tribute and that messages and images left by people across the world reassure them that their loved ones live on in peoples' hearts."
The full top 10 of Lasting Tribute celebrity tributes to get the most messages in 2009 is:
- 1. Jade Goody
- 2. Michael Jackson
- 3. John Martyn
- 4. Dave Dee, DJ and 60s celebrity
- 5. Actress Natasha Richardson
- 6. Film star Patrick Swayze
- 7. Singer Stephen Gately
- 8. Patrick McGoohan, star of cult 60s show The Prisoner
- 9. Actress Wendy Richard
- 10. Phil Easton – veteran presenter and Liverpool FC match day announcer

I hate the patent system. Not the system itself, but the result of it. Companies fighting and suing each other with way too general written patents. But I also see a good thing in patents. Somehow I want to acknowledge that a company invested time and money in research and development in order to invent, design or find a new solution or product. And it is this argument that I found in this well written post on the blog of another Silicon Valley Company.
The Apple-Samsung case not only proves that our system can still work but also reflects the genius behind our patent system, which allows true innovators to protect the value of their inventions from imitators for a limited period of time, in return for making the nature of their inventions public. This litigation represents exactly what the Founding Fathers were hoping would be the effect of the patent system when they incorporated it into the Constitution so many years ago.
Yes, it is a bit US-centric, but the argument is clear.

9 Stops on the California Highway 1 Discovery Route
Follow the magnificent Hwy. 1 along 101 miles to experience these nine dazzling spots including a luxurious castle and lackadaisical wildlife.
1. Sip Wine
Why go: Located in the coolest wine-growing region and producing Chardonnay, Pinot Noir and aromatic white wines, Arroyo Grande is two miles from the beach and Edna Valley is about five miles.
Tip: Stop at the tasting room of Edna Valley's Baileyana. It's housed in Independence Schoolhouse built in 1909. Created 30-plus years ago by Catharine Niven, Baileyana is run by the family's second and third generations.
2. Stroll in Montana de Oro State Park
Why go: An absolutely gorgeous 8,000-acre state park tucked along the Pacific Coast in Los Osos, you'll find secluded beaches like Spooner's Cove and gorgeous hiking and mountain biking trails.
Tip: Park in the beach parking lot below Spooner Ranch House, a visitor center and park headquarters. The Bluff Trail begins across from the visitor center. It's a relatively flat dirt/gravel trail that runs along the park's rugged cliffs.
3. Experience Sand Dunes
Why go: If you have a four-wheel drive or all-wheel drive vehicle, visit Oceano Dunes State Vehicular Recreation Area. It's the only beach in the state parks system where vehicles are permitted.
Tip: For more solitude, head to Guadalupe-Nipomo Dunes Center, one of the largest intact coastal dune ecosystems on Earth.
4. Relax at Avila Beach
Why go: This is the warmest, most protected beach in San Luis Obispo County.
Tip: Board a trolley to Point San Luis Lighthouse. Fares include the cost of docent-led tours in the Lighthouse & Head Keepers Quarters.
5. Taste Fresh Food
Why go: In Cayucos, enjoy a farm-to-table dinner at The Grill at the Cass House or spend the night in this five-room boutique hotel. You'll be greeted with a glass of wine when you check in.
Tip: Taste fresh-baked cookies at Brown Butter Cookie Co., a local favorite.
6. Get Artsy in Cambria
Why go: This adorable town is packed with art galleries and restaurants.
Tip: Spend the night before touring Hearst Castle. It's just a 10-minute drive to or from the castle. Cambria Beach Lodge offers a hip take on the classic roadside motel.
7. Explore Hearst Castle
Why go: In 1919 media mogul William Randolph Hearst hired architect Julia Morgan to build a grandiose 165-room home on top of a hill overlooking the Pacific Ocean. The European castle-like complex includes a twin-towered main building, three guesthouses and 100-plus acres of elaborate gardens.
Tip: Once part of the world's largest private zoo, zebras graze the property close to Hwy. 1.
8. See Seals
Why go: Observe elephant seals on the beach five miles north of Hearst Castle in San Simeon.
Tip: Order a burger made with beef from the Hearst Ranch at Sebastian's General Store built in 1852 at the height of the area's whaling industry. Sample wine from the Hearst Ranch Winery in the tasting room.
9. Get Million Dollar Views
Why go: Stand 400 feet above the Pacific Ocean at Ragged Point and look for whales.
Tip: The Ragged Point Nature Trail is an easy stroll. Experienced hikers should consider the Ragged Point Cliffside Trail, which changes 400 feet in elevation and brings you to a black sand beach and waterfall views before ascending back up the cliffs.

This has been a big week for the twins. They had their sixth birthday on Thursday, and today is the first day of 1st grade in a new school.
Their birthday was great (except of course for the absence of all you wonderful people!) They got presents in the morning, then we headed to the Food Pyramid (no Vons or Ralphs or Albertsons around here, people, and you know I'm not shopping at Walmart) to buy ice cream sundae ingredients. Then off to the library and to lunch at CafeBella, which is a cute little cafe downtown that seems to have a good amount of mediterranean food on the menu. Of course the children just had PB and J. But there was an older couple that complimented us on how well behaved the children were, so that's always nice. Then we came home and the neighbor Z. and her big brother D. came over for ice cream sundaes! Then it was play time, dinner time, and time to head to Meet Your Teacher Night at the school.
I really like the idea of Meet Your Teacher Night; the kids get a chance to scope things out with their parents near by. I just feel so out of the loop as far as information goes around here. I want to know in advance how everything works, I hate the idea that I will be that one person that doesn't know what they are doing. So I guess I meant that I liked the idea of Meet Your Teacher night because I got a chance to scope things out. I had a hard time sleeping last night because I didn't know how the snack situation worked at school. (and I know, yes, I am silly and obsessive.) At our old school, kids brought a snack as part of their lunch, and they would eat them during morning recess. Will Charlotte and Ramona get a chance to eat the snacks I packed? Will they eat them in the morning or in the afternoon? How will they know? I worry about these things way more than the girls ever do. I try not to project my anxieties onto them; they were just plain excited about starting school, not nervous at all.
So this morning was the first day of school. They will be able to take the bus, which stops in front of our next door neighbor's house, so once we get into the swing of things I think I will try to let go enough to send them on the bus, at least to school. Maybe not on the way home, though. I hear they get home really late when they take the bus, and school already ends late, at 3:45, so I think I'll pick them up. I figured out the snack issue when I talked to their teacher this morning. I guess our students are so "economically diverse" that if they did it the way we did it at our old school, most of the kids wouldn't have snacks and would go hungry. So the teacher asks for donations for snacks, and then everyone gets the same snack, at 10 am. That's fine, I suppose. I don't really like the idea of not having control of what my girls eat everyday. But then, I'm kind of a control freak.
Speaking of which, I predict I will end up as Room Mom for R and C 's class. Their teacher had asked me if I was interested on Meet Your Teacher Night, and I had said that I would be willing to be very helpful, but since we just moved here, I didn't really know enough about things in the community to do the job. But it looks like there may be no one else to do it. And I do like having my hand in the pot, so to speak. The only real trouble is that I don't have anyone to watch Elsa here, so it would be hard to do parties and things like that.
Their teacher asked the kids to bring three small things to school to help everyone get to know them. Here's what my girls brought. Ramona: a picture of Sam Cooke (in case you don't know who Sam Cooke is) printed on the computer and colored by her, the birthday card Aunt Caitlin sent, and a picture of the twins with Aunt Natascha and Zachiah. Charlotte: another picture of Sam Cooke (who knew he was such a cutie?) a little Pikachu figurine, and a pokemon card. I'm sure these girls won't seem peculiar at all...
|Ready for their first day!

Slowly they come, step by step, still creeping forward even if unable to take the bounding leap they so desperately sought against the Islanders last night at the Garden.
The Rangers did earn a point by coming back to get a 1-1 tie on Brian Leetch's gorgeous, throwback, end-to-end goal with 7:11 to go in regulation.
And though the Blueshirts couldn't squeeze out the win against an Islander club that played a near flawless match away from the puck, they did move a bit closer to the Bruins, who lost again last night in Boston.
So, riding on their first four-game unbeaten streak of the season (2-0-2), off now until the Flyers come in on Friday, the Rangers have climbed within two points of Boston, which still holds that quartet of extra games to play. In baseball terms, the Rangers are three games behind the Bruins with 13 to play. If the Blueshirts can keep winning, there's no need to consult either an abacus or calendar. There is enough time.
But in order for the Rangers to win enough to overtake the Bruins – and to remain in front of the Canadiens, whom they lead by two points with Montreal holding three in hand – they're going to have to get much more out of Eric Lindros, who failed to generate a chance or register a shot on the ever-impressive Garth Snow in 20:43 of ice.
Yes, the Islanders were stifling in their defensive work, utilizing a dense trap that all but eliminated the explosiveness of Blueshirts' marquee talent. But at some point – and it's now, at this point – Lindros, who has one goal in the last seven games and two in the last 13, is going to have to raise the level of his game the way Leetch has raised the level of his game over the last two weeks.
"Brian has played as well as anyone I've ever seen anyone play in the last two weeks," said coach Glen Sather, who has squawked the last two years about Leetch's no-trade clause, but is not very likely to ask No. 2 to waive it prior to next Tuesday's deadline, now is he? "It's outstanding."
Protecting the 1-0 edge they'd gained on Dave Scatchard's goal at 5:41 of the second, the Islanders were well on their way to killing the fifth Ranger power play of the night when Leetch picked up a long rebound just inside his defensive blue line. The defenseman wound his way up the left side of the neutral zone, cut toward the middle, and then went wide right on defenseman Mattias Timander before snapping a sharp-angle backhand over Snow's glove.
It wasn't quite as dramatic as the unforgettable Leetch spin move against Martin Brodeur in Game 7 of the 1994 conference finals, but it was nearly as nifty. Even though playing on a left ankle that's not even close to pain-free after sitting out 31 games, Leetch is dominating at both ends of the ice, last night doing so in 33:05.
"I said when Brian came back that he's our most important player, and he's proving it again and again, and playing on an ankle that's probably about 50 percent," Mark Messier said. "As far as Glen's opinion of Brian, you really get to know players when you're down on the bench.
"I think Glen is beginning to see what kind of competitor Brian is now that he'd leading the way again. I think he's appreciating him more and more every game."
With every game becoming more and more meaningful.

The Democrats are re-playing their class warfare act. This is getting to be as familiar as re-runs on TV Land.
Led by the new House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, Democrats claim the proposed Bush tax cuts on dividend income will benefit the rich more than anyone else.
The fact is, more than half the country is invested in the stock market and lots of seniors rely on dividend income to supplement their retirement. So these tax cuts will benefit everyone currently taxed twice on the same money.
But there's a larger issue. Should the government tell us how much of our money it will allow us to keep? Or should we tell government how much of our money we will allow it to spend?
Democrats, who now whine about the deficit, never minded one when they ran Congress. And too many Republicans have been willing to join them on their spending binge. They all need to go on the wagon. It isn't their money -- it's ours.
But what this debate is really about is politics. Democrats want people dependent on their programs to stay dependent. Otherwise, those locked into poverty and despair might become Republicans once they're solvent and optimistic.
The way to revive the economy is to make more capital available to the people who produce the products and services people want.
The more they're taxed, the less capital is available to invest and spend and the fewer jobs there are.
Economics isn't taught much in school, so most people don't understand it. They assume that government is benign and beneficent. But to paraphrase Mae West: "Too much of a bad thing is a bad thing."
Lower taxes produce more capital, which in turn produces more investment in new industry and more consumer spending, which in turn creates more jobs.
That's what happens when you cut taxes, whether you're a democrat, like John F. Kennedy, or a Republican, like Ronald Reagan, or the current President Bush.
Like so many in my generation, I once was, by today's standards, "poor." As an Army private working for Armed Forces Radio here in New York City, I made $99 a month and had to work a full-time civilian job to make ends meet.
I saw a lot of rich people around, but I didn't envy them or hate them; I wanted to be like them!
Growing up I learned that if I took advantage of the opportunities this country offered me, I could be successful. So I took college classes at night and on Saturday. When I failed to get or keep a job, I didn't file a lawsuit, I looked for another job.
In those days, we admired and rewarded success because we wanted more of it. We penalized and stigmatized failure, in part, to get less of it. Today, it seems, the reverse is true. Instead of pursuing victory, we often wallow in victimhood.
To paraphrase Calvin Coolidge: "Nothing can take the place of persistence. Not talent... Not genius... Not education. Persistence and determination alone are omnipotent. The slogan 'press on' has solved and always will solve the problems of the human race."
Too bad we haven't heeded those words. If we had, the war between the classes might be over by now.
And that's Column One for this week.

Police identify 10-year-old hit, killed by school bus
Police identify 10-year-old hit, killed by school bus
WILLIAMSBURG, Ky. (AP) —
Police have identified a 10-year-old southeastern Kentucky boy who was killed after being hit by his school bus as he returned home from school.
Kentucky State Police said in a statement that Jonathan A. Chatham of Rockhold in Whitley County died at the scene Monday after being struck by a bus driven by 33-year-old Amanda Woliver.
Whitley County Sheriff Colan Harrell said one or both of the child's parents were waiting for him and saw him get hit. He called the wreck a "pure accident" and said the bus driver was distraught afterward and taken to a hospital.
He said the boy cleared the bus but somehow went into the ditch line and came back under the wheels.
State police say no drug or alcohol use is suspected. The investigation is continuing.

Thanks for your feedback!
A Paranormal Romance that is Well Worth Your Time!Let me first start with the fact that I rarely give a 5 star rating. Most books typically fall into either a 3 star - it was entertaining, but not the best book ever or 4star-it was a really good book. I reserve 5 stars for books that I find exceptionally well done. To achieve that the book has to have well developed characters that have interactions between them that are reasonable and true to their developed personality traits. It must have a plot that sucks me in and keeps me turning pages that is not only interesting and entertaining, but engrossing as well as believable. Finally the book must leave me thinking about it for days after I finish it. This book does all of that! This is the first foray into the paranormal for this author and I think she hit it out of the park. I usually read the first few chapters and set the book down to think about the characters and let them fully flesh out in my mind, however, with this book I just couldn't put it down and leave it alone. The story is somewhat fast paced and kept you turning pages to see what was happening next. There are several sub-stories woven in to keep you interested in the side characters as well. While this book could easily be a stand alone, I really hope that the author develops it into a series as there were several side characters that could be more fully developed into main characters of their own book. The ending reminded me of Iris Johansen's current trilogy as the books end at what could be considered a beginning. While this author is typically a romantic suspense writer, this paranormal foray definitely has all the elements to keep her current fan base happy as well as opening the door for new fans. I was given a copy of the book in exchange of an honest review and this is the first time that I have ever given a review copy a 5 star rating! I honestly loved the book and recommend that others read it as well.by Micky C. on October 14, 2016

Action Packed Paranormal Romance!Highly entertaining, thrilling action, family drama, small town mystery and an exciting romance with a paranormal twist that will keep you on your toes to the very end and leave you breathless for more. Christina and Michael view the sleepy little town of Hidden Creek, Georgia in completely opposite ways. (each for good reason) They are brought together by a haunting and a mysterious bound they share that neither one of them can explain. Christina a woman with abilities she did not ask for and has recently come to terms with. Michael a straight lace non believer looking for nothing more than peace and quiet after a deep betrayal. Undeniable attraction they both want to ignore underlying every action. Loved every heart pounding twist and turn in this gripping tail. Excited for the next story Hidden Creek has to offer.by Cali J. on April 18, 2017

Creating mosaics and painting on location are my passions. I have been fortunate to pursue those interests during the last several years while living in some incredible locations and raising my 3 sons. My muse is the landscape and its flora and fauna. I began seriously pursuing art after my 2nd son was born, while living in a small town in Montana. I have drawn or painted since I was a little girl, and studied wildlife biology in college. My work in the wildlife field enabled me to work in places where some only dream of working. Those early experiences, a deep love of nature, and exploring many wild places over my life continue to influence my work. I am drawn to the landscape and its myriad of changing light and colors. In 2003 my husband's job transfer to the island of Kauai led to many wonderful opportunities. New terrain, wildlife, and plants were in abundance year-round, and I was fortunate to be able to paint outdoors with other kindred spirits. The landscape was vibrant and colorful, and I began the dream job of teaching watercolor painting to eager tourists. We lived there for 10 years, and enjoyed every minute. But we were ready to get back to the mainland, and coming back did not disappoint. I was thrilled to see snowy mountains and experience "real" seasons again. Since moving to Fallon, Nevada, in 2013, I have been working primarily with dry pastels. I enjoy the marriage of painting and drawing that they provide, and the subtle nuances of color I can produce with them. I am a member of Reno Tahoe Plein Air Painters, and frequently join them to paint at a variety of inspiring locations. In addition, camping trips and travel with my husband and family have all led to glorious places that provide me with enough reference material to last a lifetime! Most recently, I have begun creating mosaics. I have always been drawn to the idea of piecing together glass and found objects into an art form. As a little girl, I loved to find pretty pieces of glass as well as shells and other trinkets from our travels. Mosaic allows me to put together these elements. I am excited by the colors and textures of glass and the ability to make something incredibly unique. The idea of turning "chaos into order" makes me happy. My goal with my work is to create a "cause for pause"—a reason to stop and look at something more closely or trigger a pleasant memory. My hope is that people will find reason to slow down and appreciate the beauty around us. Enjoy!

Luxury in mathematical lines.
This unique villa is located in one of the most beautiful resorts of the west side of Curacao: Coral Estate (Rif St. Marie). An oasis of tranquility, privacy and natural beauty. Those who are looking for a villa that is built with love and passion and want to have good quality of materials, they have come to the right place.
The villa, built in 2008 by architect Anko van der Woude, gives a new meaning to living in Coral Estate. During the design he took care of all aspects that make Coral Estate unique. Consider the views of the resort and Caribbean Sea with in the Eastern direction Boca Sami and the South West towards the mountains of Venezuela (on clear days), the trade winds and the special vegetation.
Only the best materials are used in the villa. The owner has ensured that all was delivered and installed with exactitude care. Little "sloppy work" were nipped in the bud, and this has resulted in a stunningly beautiful finished house.
Via the entrance gate you enter the front yard, walking on a nicely paved foothpath through the rough garden. The garden is not raised with a layer of "diabase and soil". With the precision of a Swiss watch the weeds are removed and the natural high vegetation has been spared. Between the rough coral the blue villa is almost hidden.
While it is stunning inside, eyes always wander to the great views of the Caribbean Sea. The in parts glass sliding doors makes a natural indoor/outdoor flow. The architecture of the house is aiming to make optimal use of the cooling trade winds; not only in the bedroom, but also in the living room and kitchen.
In front of the master bedroom, with en-suite bathroom and dressing room, the office is located. The office also comes out on the spacious living room. The magnificent open kitchen is located on the right side of the living room. Red gloss wardrobe contrasts extremely stylish with the light blue kitchen with black granite countertop.
The staircase seems to be carved out of the basement of the house. The coarse savage natural coral subsoil let the imagination run wild: the attention is immediately drawn to the sleek pool with the blue sea in the background.
Guests have their own retreat under the house. With a beautiful bedroom with of course its own bathroom and dressing room and a living-dining room with kitchen it is a good place to stay. Here also everything is constructed with respect to the hot sun and the cooling wind. The beautiful shutter windows can be made so that the natural elements do their job. So if you want, no airco is needed.
A separate double garage, laundry room and storage room are not missing of course.

Firstly we use an opella valve to divert the water to the water filter.The opella valve uses a larger bore cutting tool than that of a saddle clamp, the system that is traditionally used.A saddle clamp creates a pinhole in your pipe and leaves you with an on or off option. It is therefore obvious that if you create a larger area for the water to escape from you get a better flow rate. The opella also has flow control enabling the user to increase or decrease the flow of water until the desired level is achieved (the optimum flow rate is around 2 litres per minute.)In order to maintain this better flow rate we use a larger bore pipe to the majority of our competitors. Most water filter systems use ¼ inch pipe where as we at East midlands Water use 3/8 inch pipe. Again this allows for a far greater flow of water both in and out of the water filter. All of the connections used on the fittings arePush fit connectors, these require no plumbing experience.Simply push the pipe into the connector and a watertightseal is created.Cooking with filtered water is healthier - vegetables such as carrots and spinach retain 28% more vitamin C and 50% more B2 and other foods like rice, pasta and fish showed a marked improvement in quality.

Music by Jiant, Lyrics by Adam
Nine-one-one was evil done/follow the money, find the ones/weapons of mass destruction/makes me wonder 9-1-1
- It's just a bunchabull of which the bush gang is full/ george! / What kind of ca-ca you trying to pull/ that weapons wool/ over the people's eyes/ major media lies, another soldier dies/ propaganda command brainwashed willing/ enrage em to the stage of engagement in capitalist killing/ the military industrial complex must be thrilling/ they getting the billions / we getting the billing
- Follow the money/ find the ones who got it done/ bushes and bin ladens got together, nine one one/ high stakes fake war got the people stunned/ unarmed, harm's way, foul play, under the gun/ all people rise from the underground, be full and wise/ Brick City, baby/ Radical Revolution/ opening eyes, exposing the lies, on the rise/ they trying to feed us super-sized cow pies
- You said that they could hit us/ look out they gonna git us in 45 minutes / now we know you was tryin to shit us/ knee deep in a mess talking bout god bless/ touch your head to the ground and cross and confess/ hope that bargain vest pass the bullet test/ spreading freedom and democracy, give it a rest/ nothing but crusaders on a conquering quest/ the world needs less of the pest of the west
- Those straight-up lies about the nuclear threat/ how chronically dishonest can you get / It's true/ the bush gang profits while we debt / terror bets, toy jets/ no respect for the vet / employ the girls and boys around the world and don't forget/ read george's lips and his fingertips as he signs into law the constitutional rip/ with a gold-plated uzi on his hip/ bon voyage/ y'all going on a little trip/
- Planted heroin terror, afghanistan/ monumental patches of smack, according to plan/ rummy said he could see the dub m.d. So where/ x on the spot/ he probably put em there/ when he shook the hand of sad-damn/ playing one side against the other with iran/ uncle sam is a sham gotta go bam/ what the mother strawberry say to her kids/ don't get caught in a jam/
- Leave no child behind is a state of mind/ where the people with power play on the powerless kind/ leave no child without their pocket picked/ trying hard to matriculate but they been tricked/ into an amazing maze of educational testing/ while the bush gang's the ones the feds should be arresting/ you don't understand? you hooked on peter pan/ my homeland, security plan/ cuffed hands, Bush klan
- The way they do that coup thing is really slick/ adolph ain't got nothin on condi, colon, and dick/ solve the problem buy brick city books instead of so much guns/ y'all claim to love the holy one/ coming on like the huns/ flipping shipping that smack by the megaton / funning with the cunning cun/ making that money mun/ devil doo doo did it & done, cut & run/ powder to the people/ please pardon the pun
- Military in schools is one of the tools to play us for fools/ leave no child behind, just used and abused/ are the soldiers gonna be teaching reading, science and math/ or preaching kids to follow/ the murderous path/ pawns of the so-called white man's wrath/ based on the realization his civilization's fading fast/ tryin to get away but you got to pay for the past/ devil's last stand, destroy original man to be the last
- Nine one one is a terror-ful joke/ punch line cash and a crash of mankind in mirrors and smoke/ pow went the towers political ends friends that's all she wrote / now the freethink sinks and the propagan' plan floats/ beware the dirty bomber all that kind of drama/ no osama just saddam grieved bereaved dads and moms/ you don't see bush's family in there do you hell no/ cuz they got pull, they paid in full/ and it's just a bunchabull

Opposition to Pope: birth & growth!
The historical roots of opposition to Pope Francis' idea of "a God of mercy" started long before the release of his exhortation "Joy of Love" in April 2016. It all began actually on Feb. 20, 2014, when Pope Francis invited Cardinal Walter Kasper to address the cardinals gathered for the first consistory of his new pontificate. Kasper's book Mercy had profoundly impacted Francis and he asked the German cardinal to share his insights with the other cardinals. Among the items Kasper discussed was his conviction that the church needed to revisit its pastoral practice in regard to those Catholics who had divorced and remarried.
The conservatives hit back quickly, publishing a book, Remaining in the Truth of Christ, that challenged Kasper's book and proposal. It included essays by such prominent churchmen as Cardinals Raymond Burke, Walter Brandmüller, and Carlo Caffarra. The various essays all struck a common theme: The church's teaching on marriage, they clamed, is "irreformable," based on the words of Jesus in the Gospels, and unchanged for two millennia of Christian life. Burke was again prominent among those voicing his concerns, claiming the discussions and press coverage were being manipulated since discussions within the synod hall at that time were not public.
CCV had published several reports and comments at that time. Francis was so enamoured of Walter's presentation of the "new name of our God is MERCY" and Francis' own provocative inference and question: "If it is not the lost sheep, the most hardened sinners (divorced and remarried in the present case) for whom the Church of Jesus came to seek as the lost sheep? Didn't the Good shepherd (son of God of Mercy) leave the 99 just and go in search of the lost one? He therefore was saying in effect, there is no sin in this world which is not pardonable, as a counter to the conservative group's argument that traditional Church teaching on marriage was "irresormable".
So even before the two Synods started, it was clear that a majority and minority party had emerged, with the majority open to the Kasper proposal. In voting on the final report from the synod, most propositions garnered nearly unanimous support but three paragraphs regarding LGBT outreach and the issue of how to help divorced and remarried Catholics failed to garner two-thirds of the voting prelates, although they did attain a majority.
Dubia & its publication
The final document cleared the two-thirds majority, including those pertaining to a possible opening for the divorced and remarried to return to the sacraments. On November 2016, Brandmüller, Burke and Caffarra, all of whom had contributed to the book opposing the Kasper proposal, joined by Cardinal Joachim Meisner, archbishop emeritus of Cologne, Germany, took the extraordinary step of publishing five dubia, or doubts, that they had regarding Amoris Laetitia. They did it after waiting for months for Francis to clarify their doubts which he didn't. Since the publication of the dubia, two of the four cardinals — Meisner and Caffarra — have died.
Filial correction of heresy
Once the four conservative, traditional cardinals led by Burke found that their doubts made known to Francis both privately and publicly could not domesticate and force him to speak up, now they collected signatures of sixty-two Catholic academics, researchers, and scholars in various fields from twenty countries and sent a 25 page letter made public on Sept 24th listing seven heresies for the Pope's consideration and correction. (Read CCV 26/09/2017, Pope propagating Heresy?) The letter had been actually delivered privately at his Santa Marta residence one month ago on Agust 11, 2017. No similar action had ever taken place within the Catholic Church since the Middle Ages, when Pope John XXII was admonished for errors which he later recanted on his deathbed.
This group called their 25 page letter 'Filial correction' to hide their hypocrisy and pretence to be better informed and enlightened to parade themselves to be lords and masters empowered to correct and teach an erring Pope teaching 'heresies' in his "Amoris Laetitia', as it happened in the middle ages. (Oh Tempora! Oh Mores!) Oh the morality of the times we live in! even in the sanctuaries of holiness!
Boston Conferenc of Theologians
All these historical and chronological developments have finally resulted in the the two-day Boston Conference Oct. 5-6 just over attended by 2 ardinals, 12 bishops and 24 other invited participants. This meet highlighted two things: 1. "Infantilization of the laity" reducing laity and families, a legacy of the historical colonization and the encyclical, of Pius X, 'Vehementer Nos' of 1906, suggesting laity to be content being objects of clerical control to be led (not to lead) to pay, pray and obey. This needs must be buried for good, said the conference. 2. The Boston conference stressed that clerics are called to form consciences, not to replace them quoting Francis; "replacement of conscience is an act of domination, again colonization."
The details collected above are from many articles published in the NCR and our own CCV to give an overall picture of opposition and its growth to Pope Francis and the torturous journey of 'Joy of Love' ever since its publication last November 2016.
A Final Question
A final question is: What impact all this have in India. The exemplary impact is that the Archdiocese of Kolkata concluded a historic Synod, in Sept. 26-30, which was attended by 88 priests, 23 nuns, 37 laymen and 13 lay women, representing Catholics in the archdiocese, about which, Isaac Gomes, Associate editor of CCV from Kolkata wrote an elaborate report and assessment. (Read: CCV, 05/10/2017). Based on these CCV has 4 points for the consideration of Indian bishops. They are the following:
1. Imitate Kolkata at least in conducting a study and Synod on 'Joy of Love'
2. Give proportionate representation to Laity in diocesan and national synods; they are the church, not the clergy, especially today when it is the Year of the Laity. They are also better informed than the clergy who should keep their mouths shut to listen and learn.
3. Stop infantilizing them, they will just revolt; days of colonialism and over lording is long over.
4. Bow to their commanding conscience; never ever try to replace it with clerical conscience leading to doom, or blind leading the blind.
Will Indian bishops listen and think over these suggestions? If the bulk of them care two hoots for what the Pope says, what can a small fry like CCV expect from them? That is the way CCV feels from its long experience with Indian bishops. They are welcome to live in their heavens or make a hell (we don't believe in) for themselves. james kottoor, editor ccv.

Bishops, theologians gather to consider US implementation of 'Amoris Laetitia' – by Joshua J. McElwee Oct 3, 2017
Boston College event to address 'new momentum' of pope's exhortation on family life.

In five panel discussions over two days Oct. 5-6, two cardinals, 12 bishops, and 24 other invited participants discussed what organizers are calling the "new momentum" Amoris Laetitia gives local bishops to renew their pastoral practices toward families.
Pope Francis' apostolic exhortation on family life, Amoris Laetitia, is perhaps the most hotly debated Catholic church document since Humanae Vitae, Pope Paul VI's 1968 encyclical letter that reaffirmed the church's ban on birth control.
Standout moments in the debate following Amoris Laetitia's April 2016 release include the November 2016 publication of a letter from four cardinals openly challenging the pope over the document and the September 2017 accusation by a few dozen Catholics that the pontiff had even committed heresy in writing it..
But not much public focus has been centered on what the document, known in English as "The Joy of Love," actually says in its 261 pages. Even less attention has been given to how local dioceses might implement its program for bishops and priests to see God's grace at work even in the sometimes-unconventional situations families and marriages face today.
The recently held Boston College addressed that lack of attention. In five panel discussions over two days Oct. 5-6, two cardinals, 12 bishops, and 24 other invited participants discussed what organizers are calling the "new momentum" Amoris Laetitia gives local bishops to renew their pastoral practices toward families.
Jesuit Fr. James Keenan, a theologian at Boston College who is helping organize the event, told NCR the hope for the conference was to "fortify and further the ongoing reception of Amoris in the U.S."
Keenan organized the event alongside Chicago Cardinal Blase Cupich, using the model of an earlier conference hosted at Paris' Institut Catholique by French Cardinal André Vingt-Trois and Msgr. Philippe Bordeyne, a theologian and rector of that institute.
Cupich attended the Boston-area event as also Cardinal Kevin Farrell, who was called to Rome from Dallas by Francis in 2016 to lead the Vati
can's new Dicastery for Laity, Family and Life. Farrell spoke at Oct. 5 as part of a panel on how the apostolic exhortation addresses those in Western cultures who have become disaffected by authority structures. Keenan said the event will have a particular focus on hearing from those who have been involved with helping the European church better understand and implement Amoris Laetitia.
Speakers included German Bishop Franz-Josef Overbeck, who participated in the 2014 and 2015 Synods of Bishops that led to the exhortation; Malta Archbishop Charles Scicluna, who co-wrote a January 2017 document for Malta's priests on how to implement the exhortation in their country; and Jesuit Fr. Antonio Spadaro, a papal confidant and editor of the Italian magazine La Civiltà Cattolica.
Other bishops set to speak at the event include Atlanta Archbishop Wilton Gregory and San Diego Bishop Robert McElroy. Those in attendance were include Santa Fe Archbishop John Wester; Indianapolis Archbishop Charles Thompson; San Bernardino, California, Bishop Gerald Barnes; Cheyenne, Wyoming, Bishop Steven Biegler; and Burlington, Vermont, Bishop Christopher Coyne.
In addition, Keenan said that while Boston Cardinal Sean O'Malley and Philadelphia Archbishop Charles Chaput are unable to attend, both are sending representatives to take part. Among the expected 24 lay participants at the event are some of the most prominent theologians in the U.S., including: Cathleen Kaveny, Richard Gaillardetz, and Hosffman Ospino of Boston College; Julie Hanlon Rubio of St. Louis University; Franciscan Sr. Katarina Schuth of the University of St. Thomas, and Meghan Clark of St. John's University. A handful of press outlets have been invited to report on the proceedings, including NCR.
The Boston conference carries the title "Amoris Laetitia: A New Momentum for Moral Formation and Pastoral Practice." The program states that Francis is "inviting the Church to a renewed process of moral formation and pastoral practice with regard to marriage and family life that is rooted in Sacred Scripture and the Church's faith."
"Implicitly, [the pope] is also envisioning a wider perspective on renewal that has a broader application for the life of the whole Church," it continues. "The foundations are absolutely traditional … but what brings the movement forward is a creative recovery of synodality, listening, accompaniment and discernment."
Farrell's panel on how the exhortation addresses those disaffected by authority is to be the third of the five panels of the conference. The first two are to focus on understanding "the scope, the challenge, and the promise" of the document, and the "newness that priests and laity face" in reading it. The fourth and fifth panels will focus on how Amoris Laetitia engages in a pastoral process marked by discernment and accompaniment, and the challenges the document presents to theologians and pastors.
Making pastors lives 'wonderfully complicated'
Amoris Laetitia was released on April 8, 2016. It was written by Francis following the 2014 and 2015 Synods of Bishops on the family, which each made recommendations to the pontiff after weeks of meetings among hundreds of prelates at the Vatican.
While the exhortation does not explicitly change church teaching, it has been seen as a radical departure from recent decades of pastoral practice. In one ofAmoris' most poignant passages, Francis asked Catholic pastors around the world to let their lives become "wonderfully complicated" in an effort to see God's grace at work, even in situations which might be seen as contrary to doctrinal norms.
The pontiff also called on bishops and priests to set aside fears of risking moral confusion in their efforts to accompany people in difficult family situations, saying pastors must avoid a tendency to a "cold bureaucratic morality" and should shift away from evaluating peoples' moral status based on rigid canonical regulations. Pointedly, Francis said that Catholic prelates could no longer make blanket moral determinations about so-called "irregular" situations such as divorce and remarriage.
"It … can no longer simply be said that all those in any 'irregular' situation are living in a state of mortal sin and are deprived of sanctifying grace," the pontiff stated at one point in the document." It is reductive simply to consider whether or not an individual's actions correspond to a general law or rule, because that is not enough to discern and ensure full fidelity to God in the concrete life of a human being," the pope wrote later.
"Discernment must help to find possible ways of responding to God and growing in the midst of limits," stated Francis. "By thinking that everything is black and white, we sometimes close off the way of grace and of growth, and discourage paths of sanctification which give glory to God."
The pope also said the church has sometimes had a hard time in the past respecting what lay Catholics discern God to be telling them in their consciences. "We also find it hard to make room for the consciences of the faithful, who very often respond as best they can to the Gospel amid their limitations, and are capable of carrying out their own discernment in complex situations," he stated. "We have been called to form consciences, not to replace them."
Much of the public debate during the 2014 and 2015 synods had focused on how the bishops and the pope might address divorced people who had remarried without first seeking annulments. Church practice has in the past prevented such people from taking Communion.
Francis devoted the eighth of Amoris Laetitia's nine chapters to that question. While the pope did not specifically issue a new law or regulation allowing remarried Catholics writ large to have the Eucharist, he significantly changed the church's stance towards such persons.
The pope called for "pastoral discernment" of individual situations and proposed what he called "the logic of pastoral mercy" in working with remarried persons.Citing Pope John Paul II, Francis put forward the notion of "graduality," meaning that Catholics may sometimes grow toward adherence or understanding of church teaching throughout their lives.
"This is not a 'gradualness of law' but rather a gradualness in the prudential exercise of free acts on the part of subjects who are not in a position to understand, appreciate, or fully carry out the objective demands of the law," stated the pope. "For the law is itself a gift of God which points out the way, a gift for everyone without exception."
"No one can be condemned forever, because that is not the logic of the Gospel!" he exhorted. Francis also said it is possible that those living in "an objective state of sin … can be living in God's grace, can love and can also grow in the life of grace and charity, while receiving the Church's help to this end."
In a footnote at the end of that passage that some have taken to mean that divorced and remarried people can now take Communion in some circumstances, the pope said that in some cases such help from the church "can include the help of the sacraments."
"I understand those who prefer a more rigorous pastoral care which leaves no room for confusion," Francis stated later. "But I sincerely believe that Jesus wants a Church attentive to the goodness which the Holy Spirit sows in the midst of human weakness."
Much of the debate since Amoris Laetitia's release has revolved around how different people interpret the footnote about giving divorced and remarried people the help of the sacraments. The Maltese bishops' guidelines said that a divorced and remarried person who has prayed at length and is acting with an informed conscience "cannot be precluded from participating in the sacraments of reconciliation and the Eucharist."
A group of Argentine bishops likewise said in September 2016 that there can sometimes be factors in a divorce that limit the responsibility of the Catholic in question and that, in those cases, "Amoris Laetitia opens the possibility of access to the sacraments of reconciliation and the Eucharist."
But other bishops have said Amoris Laetitia does not open up the possibility for divorced people in new marriages to receive Communion. In July 2016, for example, Chaput issued guidelines stating that remarried people would need to refrain from sexual intimacy if they wanted to take the Eucharist."Undertaking to live as brother and sister is necessary for the divorced and civilly remarried to receive reconciliation in the sacrament of penance, which could then open the way to the Eucharist," said those guidelines.
While Francis has refrained from clarifying exactly what possibilities Amoris Laetitia opens for remarried people, he praised the Argentine bishops' guidelines in a letter later confirmed as authentic by the Vatican. The letter stated that the Argentine prelates had accurately explained with the exhortation taught. "There are no other interpretations," Francis said. [Joshua J.

Question about Canon PIXMA MP150 All-In-One InkJet Printer
When try to set up the printer I get a message to "Install the print head and set the ink tank." What does this mean?
Posted by fhinton on
You need to refer to the part in your instruction manual on installing printer cartridges. the computer/printer does not or will not print as the cartridge needs to be setup first ie the amount of ink and a general printer head test. if you don't have the manual check this site out and download it, at the top on the right hand side type in pixma mp150, then enter on the next page chose operating system and then language, then submit, go right to the bottom and chose printer user guide, then on the next page under manual click on the .exe file and it will download. Open this from your desktop. I have looked at it and it seems as if you need to do it from your software within windows - check ink level is found under the heading routine maintenance. Hope this solves the problem!

Ahem, Ladies first.
I normally know exactly what I want.
When it comes to style and decorating, I can make a decision at the snap of a finger and never look back. But when I came to my wedding dress, I was absolutely not one of those brides who bought the first dress they tried on.
I was looking for something with no bling, no beads, no poof, no train, no belt. Turns out, that's really, really hard to find and I tried on no less than one hundred dresses.
I found my beautiful bridal gown at Nordstrom–it was designed by Nicole Miller Bridal. Nicole Miller makes elegant, classic, and simple wedding dresses, and after a while, it was clear that this was the perfect one.
I wore shoes by Badgley Mischka and earrings by Nadri, both also purchased from Nordstrom.
Adam got his navy suit from Suit Supply. And WOW, it was sensational–sharp, spiffy, and swanky!
He was the most handsome man in the world on our day.
Additionally, it was perfectly tailored and form fitting which gave him classic and clean lines, and it was perfectly lightweight for May in Phoenix. His snazzy suspenders, which he revealed later in the evening, were also from Suit Supply.
The suits from Suit Supply are modern and hip and there are so many choices! Adam loved this because it gave him the chance to personalize his finery for the day, as opposed to a rental tuxedo or black suit. Suit Supply also sells non-formal men's clothing, which Adam highly recommends!
Did I mention he put together his ensemble all on his own?
Adam finished his look with a shirt from Banana Republic, floral tie from Ted Baker, and shoes by Cole Haan.
I just LOVED our look.
