Burgerville is holding a fundraiser on Monday, Nov. 18 to support the fight against Lou Gehrig's Disease, in honor of MariAnne Sansour, a local resident living with the disease.
Burgerville will donate 10 percent of all proceeds from sales between 5 p.m. to 8 p.m. to the ALS Association.
Lou Gehrig's Disease, or ALS (Amyotrophic Lateral Sclerosis), is a disease that attacks the motor neurons in the brain and spinal chord. When the motor neurons die, the muscles waste away. Gradually, a person is robbed of the ability to walk, speak, eat and, eventually, breathe. The only function that is spared is cognitive function.
Sansour, who is now in a wheelchair, has vowed to live her life as fully as possible and keeps a positive outlook.

The pace has been plodding, but Washington reached an important checkpoint this week in its effort to avoid wrecking the U.S. economy with a crisis of its own creation. President Barack Obama and House Speaker John Boehner have swapped fresh proposals marked by significant concessions. Differences remain and hurdles loom, but the outline of a pact to avoid the damaging combination of automatic tax hikes and spending cuts set to take effect on Jan. 1 is finally coming into focus. Now comes the unpredictable part of the capitol's high-stakes dealmaking: the rest of the people's representatives are about to take center stage.
The 112th Congress is on track to be one of the least productive in history, and neither side has suddenly acquired a taste for compromise now. Any deal Boehner and Obama ultimately cut needs to muster the votes to pass both chambers, and the House is particularly tricky territory, since it contains a contingent of conservatives hostile to higher taxes and a faction of liberals who oppose cuts to entitlement programs.
The looming threat of a double rebellion has sapped some of the optimism that the latest proposals might have engendered. Obama's offer, the terms of which were leaked to reporters Monday night, calls for $1.2 trillion in new revenue over the next decade — the midpoint between his initial request of $1.6 trillion and Boehner's call for $800 billion — and a roughly equal amount of spending cuts, a third of that in entitlement savings. (Republicans dispute the White House's math.) Obama also offered to preserve the current tax rates on household income up to $400,000. For his part, Boehner has proposed to raise taxes on income earned past $1 million and to delay another damaging skirmish over the nation's debt ceiling for a year.
While both sides balked at the other's terms, the concessions lifted some of the gloom enveloping the capitol with just two weeks until the deadline. Obama has met Boehner halfway on the revenue a deal generates, upped the amount of entitlement savings it would include, and hiked the threshold for raising raising taxes on the wealthy. Boehner has bowed to the reality that a deal will require tax hikes and agreed to put off another round of debt-ceiling brinkmanship, a risky tactic his conference wants to use to extract more spending cuts next year. The two negotiators both want to cut a deal as a down payment on broader efforts to overhaul the tax code and entitlements next year. Having exchanged the requisite series of fantasy proposals, they are moving toward a middle ground that suggests an agreement can be reached — at least between the two leaders.
But neither gets to dictate to his caucus. Boehner and Pelosi will have the challenge of finding enough votes among the rank-and-file members of their parties, both of which contain elements willing to plunge off the cliff. Republican won't swallow tax hikes until Democrats budge on entitlements, and that is proving a tough sell. On Tuesday a faction of liberal Democrats assailed Obama's willingness to change the formula used to calculate Social Security benefits, called "chained CPI." Democrats oppose the change, first floated by Republicans, because they don't believe Social Security contributes to the deficit and they worry the new formula would hurt the poor. House Democrat Keith Ellison called the idea "unnecessary and irresponsible," and Pelosi added that she would resist a separate effort to scale back entitlement costs by boosting the Medicare eligibility age from 65 to 67.
Republicans have doubts of their own about Boehner's proposal. Dyed-in-the-wool Tea Partyers won't accept a deal that raises a dollar of revenue on ideological grounds. (Emblematic quote, from freshman Rep. Raul Labrador of Ohio: "I'm a hell no! There are a lot of bad things in this bill.") Then there are conservatives who realize they're boxed in by the impending expiration of Bush-era rates and want to grab the best deal possible, but remain hopeful of a sweetened offer. (Emblematic quote, from Senator-elect Jeff Flake of Arizona: "All of us recognize that the top rate is going to go up. The question is: How much can we do to change that?")
The challenge of knitting together a coalition of 218 falls to Boehner and Pelosi, who for her part expressed confidence. "It depends on how many [Boehner] has," Pelosi told MSNBC's Andrea Mitchell Tuesday. "But yes. The Democrats will stick with the President." She paused a beat. "Maybe not every single one of them."

|Cory Weissman, with an
enthusiastic Gettysburg student section behind him, hits one of two
free throws to punctuate his return to the floor.
Gettysburg athletics photo by Tommy Riggs
By Pat Coleman
Saturday was a big day for Gettysburg men's basketball, and a classy move by Washington College made it an even bigger one. The program honored two Centennial Conference title teams, saw a 57-year-old coaching record fall and celebrated Senior Day.
For one senior, it was even more memorable. Cory Weissman's Senior Day included his return to the court after three years on the sidelines. He suffered a life-threatening stroke during an offseason workout and needed two weeks just to learn to walk again.
Weissman started and after Washington College won the tip, it gave the ball to Weissman to turn over so the clock would stop and he could be removed. Weissman figured his playing day was done, but it was what happened at the end of the game that was truly selfless. He was surprised to even get a chance to come back in.
"I had no idea at all," Weissman told D3sports.com. "My dream and my goal since I got back my sophomore year was just to step on the court again. I wasn't sure if I would even have the opportunity to do that."
Gettysburg led comfortably in the final minute of the game, so Weissman returned to the floor. And after a Washington College basket with 19 seconds left, coach Rob Nugent called a timeout, not to unnecessarily prolong the game, but to provide one goal: Foul Cory Weissman.
Two seconds later, Weissman went to the free throw line and hit one out of two, giving the Bullets an 83-67 lead in a game it finished by winning 83-69.
"I better not miss these free throws," Weissman recalls thinking, as he stepped to the line. But once he missed the first, the pressure evaporated rather than intensifying.
"For some reason, I don't know what it is, I kind of just told myself that three years of hard work, after what I've been through, there's no way I was going to miss it. That was one of the most confident free throws I've ever taken."
"On behalf of the Gettysburg College community I want to write and thank you for creating an atmosphere of outstanding sportsmanship at Washington College," Gettysburg athletic director David Wright wrote in an email. "On Saturday, your men's basketball coach, Rob Nugent, along with his coaching staff and student-athletes displayed a measure of compassion that I have never witnessed in over 30 years of involvement in intercollegiate athletics."
The move was not scripted, but decided by Nugent and the Shoremen staff on the fly, and will allow Weissman to graduate this year, with one point in the record books. He had played in three games as a freshman in 2008-09 without scoring.
"That coach had so much class," Weissman said. "That was just an unforgettable day. It was honestly the best day of my life."
The win was the 322nd of Petrie's career, making him Gettysburg's winningest coach of all time. He passed Hen Bream, for whom the Bullets' gymnasium is named.
Weissman's stroke was caused by an arteriovenous malformation, the same condition experienced by Indiana Pacer guard A.J. Price in 2004. He was fully paralyzed on the left side of his body.
|Cory Weissman and his parents enjoyed Senior Day at Gettysburg.
"No one ever knows that that could be the last time you ever step on the floor, or play whatever sport you do," Weissman said. "The corny saying, 'you never know what you've got until it's gone,' you don't really understand it until you go through it. I heard it growing up, but I found out first-hand. It happened to me, it could happen to everyone."
"He checked in with 50-something seconds left and my assistant was asking if we should foul him," Nugent said. "I didn't want to do it right away so I think we went one possession for us and one possession for them. We sent our assistant Bob Hughes down to let George (Petrie) know what we were doing and that was that."
"The crowd erupted and there was not a dry eye in the place," Wright wrote. "I cannot tell you the number of people that have told me how impressed they were with how Coach Nugent and the WC team handled themselves. I might also mention that during the senior recognition at the beginning of the game, the entire WC contingent gave Corey a standing ovation and during player introductions, Coach Nugent gave him a hug."
"I have never been more proud to be associated with the Centennial Conference and Division III of the NCAA."
"It's something we talk about all the time in our program," Nugent explained. "We do the right thing because it's the right thing no matter how it affects you.
"Everybody was enriched and had a great experience because of Cory Weissman on Saturday. He's an inspiration to everyone from what he's gone through in his college career."
At one point, Weissman's goals included just being able to take part in layup lines before the game, something he was finally able to do this season. Now his goals include taking part in the career track that got him where he is today.
"I plan to go to physical therapy school," Weissman said. "I'm so interested in all of my rehab, what they were able to do to make me better. I was also influenced by my mom, who is a physical therapist. She also played a huge role in my rehab.
"I had a therapist when I was at therapy and I had a therapist when I was home. Whenever I had time off at home, when I wasn't supposed to be working, my mom was ... critiquing the way I was walking, helping me to become better."
That gave him the last chance he needed.

Cullen is much more common than any of its variant spellings or similar surnames (except for Collins of course). Here are some of the different names/spellings found in the 1911 census of Ireland.
What is interesting about this? Some of the names that appear somewhat common in the U.S are rare or absent (Cullens and Cullins for example, also Cullum/Cullom is rare--maybe it's more of an English name?) Also names mentioned in the surname histories as being variants of Cullen are absent (Culloon, Culhoon).
If a number is not given, there were less than 10 people with that name in the census, usually only 1 or 2.
CULLEN-7181 names
variant spellings and very rare surnames:
CULAN, CULLAN (66), CULLEEN, CULLEM, CULLENN, CULLAN, CULLENS (8 only), CULLEON, CULLION (96, mostly Donegal, some Tyrone), CULLLEN, CULLIM, CULLIN (82), CULLINS (10 only), CULLOM, CULLUM (15), CULLUMM, CULLON, CULHAM, CULHAN, CULLA (10), CULLAM, CULLANE (15), CULLANNE, CULLE, CULLEA, CULLEAN (10), CULLEANE, CULLEENY, CULLEHY, CULENEY, CULLER, CULLERY (10), CULLEW, CULLING, CULLINY, CULLIS, CULLNEY, CULLOHY, CULLOLY, CULLOO (17), CULLUANE, CULM, CULMEA, CULLINGNE, CULLMAN, CULLNEY, CULLOM, CULLON, CULLUM,
Then there are some names that are clearly different families, not just spelling variations:

CULL (232, Down, Leitrim, Antrim and a few other counties)
CULLINEY (44, Mayo and Clare)
CULLINAN (863, Waterford to Roscommon)

Today, i am: wiccan.
- March 12, 2018 at 12:09 pm
I was recently talked to about being an empath. I have a strong Irish heritage and have always been so happy when I'm outside in nature. When I go home to the state I was raised in and the US that is full of nature I always feel like my body is recharged fully somehow. I was wondering if you could tell me if I carry what they call Wiccan blood or heritage. I knew someone that said she was descended from a white Wiccan? What does that mean? I am a very open person about religion and myself was raised Catholic. I question many things about my religion its history and writings. Just looking for a little insight or somewhere where I might be able to research more.

Hello , Im looking for away to call out to my sister's who practice Wicca. I myself have been looking to start practicing Wicca, I've dabbled in tarot readings, and I was told by a friend who has been practices Wicca for years ,that I am a empath. I have learned by practicing and focusing on my emotions for people they can feel my presence, when I will it. my sister's live across the state so I need something to amp it up, tell me what kind of symbols will amp it and make them more aware of my presence?

I live in a house that was said to have been built in 1972. It wasn't until about after about living here for around 6 months that my daughter came to me and told me to knock it off I know it's you. I was very confused. She thought I was playing a joke on her because we do enjoy playing that way. I told her I hadn't. She then thought it was her little brother. Nothing happened for a few days after.
At this point my daughter came to me scared, she told me she was hearing what sounds like a little girl giggling. I was with her later on in the day and she said did you hear her ! I could only tell her the truth I heard nothing. The same happened the next day but my son, daughter, and myself was in the sitting room this time. My daughter started shaking and crying. She said, she's here ! She asked if we could hear her, we didn't… My best friend before she moved called a lady that was recommended to her to come and help cleanse the house. So she did, it was less than a month and my daughter said it didn't help she's still here I can hear her. That is when my best friend recommended we go down to the courthouse to look over ownership papers on the house and property. I didn't know until she told me that Realtor do not have to tell you if someone has died in the home if it hasn't been less than 5 years. What we found out was that yes this house was built in 1972 on a pre-existing foundation from a home that was built in 1909. We, well I'll say it my best friend I went into the crawl space of the part of the original foundation to see if there was anything there. In a far corner piece on some of the brickwork was Warren image and it didn't look to be Latin because my best friend took a Latin. She was uncertain of what the writing was but it was a worn down Circle within another circle with writing of some kind inside of the ring part and it looked like some in the big part. It had a star at the top with 6 points. The inside looked like it had evenly divided into fours and then there was more of that writing but it wasn't clear what it is. As I said it wasn't in good shape.. I have tried to talk to my husband about all of this. His take on it is there is no such thing as ghosts and that our daughter is letting her Imagination get the best of her. Also that I am just making it worse by feeding into it. I haven't told my daughter about what we found out about the house or about the symbol or whatever it is that we found roughly carved into the old foundation.
I know my description is not much help but if someone could tell me if they've seen anything similar to what I'm describing please tell me can this have anything to do with what's going on?
My oldest sister has paranoid schizophrenia. My husband is thinking that if my daughter continues that possibly that she needs to go in and get tested or examined because of the fact that schizophrenia can run in families. I don't not for one minute, not one piece of my heart believes that my daughter is schizophrenic ! I don't know what to do !!!
- January 8, 2018 at 11:31 am
I am by no means an expert, but I am a concerned believer. I know it is much to ask, but did you by any means take a charcoal sketch of the symbol or a picture? If you'd email me I'd be glad to help in any way I can.
- February 10, 2018 at 6:11 pm
Hi, I hope everything is well with your family. If you will email me so I can teach you to cleanse your home and lift the spell on your property. I can also tell you how to protect your daughter. Blessed be.
P.s. I'm not trying to sell you a book or anything. Haha. I'm just here to try and help.

Hello Lovelies,
I am trying to understand the ways of Wicca, and I am wondering how to commit? I am so in-tune with my natural surroundings, and feel that becoming Wiccan is my fate. I need help understanding the ways and understanding of Wicca, and was wondering if someone could help me out?
Thank you so much, and I hope to be in contact very soon!
Blessed Be

My buddy went in a abandoned house found a book in the wall that said how to
Become a witch or a colt and was a big old book, in the middle of the room on floor was a gardnerian looking markings with a dead crow in the middle. They both said a line out of the book and one of them poured a old jar of mayo on the dead crow. Within the next couple days they each lost someone in their lives and put the book in a bag and hid it in the woods and left it there. Should I leave it there or is it all good for me to get it and look in it

I'm trying to do a research paper on Wicca for English, and one of the topis I chose was symbolism. Do you think I could get help figuring out which symbols are the most important and what they are and mean?
- April 19, 2017 at 12:38 pm
Hello. I have seen symbols and premonitions the past few years and there is one symbol in particular I would like to know the meaning of. I have looked for the meaning on my own but to no avail. Think you could help me?
- August 11, 2017 at 12:52 am
Did one of the symbols happen to be an Arrowhead with the infinity symbol through it and it a circle around it
- April 7, 2017 at 7:47 pm
Hello everyone. I have read everything that has been posted. A long time ago witches would have been burned at the stack for even talking or practices. It's good to believe in things but there is some things that are not to be talked about so openly. Maybe I am just old school but somethings are meant to be kept within the circle of your culture.
- January 8, 2018 at 11:33 am
In turn to that then, perhaps you should also realize that this -is- within a circle of culture, specifically those who wish to learn of Wiccan and other Pagan symbols. If you do not wish to see such things, then perhaps -don't- visit a site meant to -educate- people on specific cultures.
- April 14, 2018 at 10:04 am
Well said. Well said, indeed!

My niece found a braclet ,a pentacle,some human ashes iin a little container, buried under our shed what does it mean
- March 11, 2017 at 2:00 pm
Dont touch that thing! Chances are its charged with someones energy. Could react badly to yours or your daughters. Eorst case is its some sort of hex so if you touched it go to your religious provider and get blessed or cleansed. Then do the same to that thing and bury it like you would a person
- October 1, 2016 at 11:23 am
Salutations. I recently woke up and found some markings on my front porch. Could someone help me identify them?
- November 13, 2016 at 1:14 am
I can try? What did the symbols look like?
- September 23, 2016 at 2:36 am
I was curious as to what a crescent moon black stamp on someone's front porch meant?
- February 16, 2018 at 6:51 am
From what I know It depends on which way the crescent moon is facing. If it faces with the points to the left ) it is for the maiden, if they point to the right ( it's for the crime, it they point up it could be for protection or blessing but it would be missing the 3 tear drops beneath it, but it could also be a simple symbol for the moon.
- September 14, 2016 at 12:39 am
I enjoyed reading many of the comments here, lots of good things said and figured I'd share as well. I studied some anthropology of religion in college and lived in China for 6 years. Among the many different cultures and people I've personally met or befriended, Wiccans, Buddhists, and Muslims have always been the most kind towards me and seem to have such peaceful lives even when they may have little possessions or faced with much criticism. I don't follow a religion, but I consider myself spiritual and mix certain elements from what I've encountered. I read the Bible and other texts as well. I guess I'm quite open minded and respectful of anyone's view on life. We've all had hardships, and I've had plenty of my own, but I think it's important to have something spiritual in our lives that we may draw on for strength and protection. I may not be wiccan but I've found that I do have a natural calling towards the moon and use of Wiccan symbols and such in ways that make us feel more safe and peaceful, my souls collected and calm. In short, it's a great help for inner peace when it comes to being split 3 ways inside. Oh, big thanks to your post here. Hollywood has ruined the image of many religions and figures. We need more people to understand the truth is something more beautiful.
- May 23, 2016 at 8:47 pm
I have a symbol that I found in one of my mothers prayer books, I have loved it since I was a little girl. I was wondering if I could send you a picture of it, and maybe you could help explain it, or give any information about it. I think it's a immaculate heart symbol with out the heart.

Hey, I'm a pagan, and I'm really confused. While doing some research for a project, I found out that a symbol that I have always believed to be one of the biggest symbols for paganism (the crescent moon and star together) is actually a symbol of the muslim faith. So, are there any symbols that represent paganism? Because I'm actually pretty upset right now…
- May 21, 2016 at 11:30 pm
The crescent with the star is strictly islamic and in no way related to paganism. Paganism should have plenty of other symbols.
- September 11, 2016 at 8:49 pm
The islamic religion is a pagan religion. the word pagan originally described outlanders farmers and people who lived in rural areas, back then most people living in rural areas believed in more earth based, pagan or naturalist religions. later on when christianity arose the meaning of the word was changed to describe any religion that is not christianity, Judaism or ancient islamic. now Islamic is considered a pagan religion to the catholic church.
- September 10, 2016 at 7:21 am
Paganism uses the pentacle for the most part as the symbols of the religion. Though not all pagans do, some religions under the pagan umbrella term use different symbols to represent their religion.
- April 25, 2018 at 3:00 am
it has always been my belief that the crescent moon and the star represented the Horned God.
- April 27, 2016 at 2:57 am
Hi. Could I email you guys an image of a pendant that got given to me? Its a penyagram one but it has funny little symbols around the edge that I have been curious about for years. Can you help me?
- March 26, 2016 at 12:17 am
I need some suggestions for a strong protection symbol that can created as a tattoo. I really appreciate any help!
- April 6, 2017 at 6:20 pm
I've found through personal introspection, research, and experimenting (which plenty would discourage) that symbols are unique to individuals. I delved into lore, myth, and personal writings from other people and have found that using a symbol or sigil in one period in my life with a good success rate isn't always going to work, say 5 years from now. Depending on your path in life, your personal beliefs, and the situation, the symbol that works for you today might not be what works for you indefinitely. I find the best success rate with simply looking over a multitude of pages, then not settling on one until I find one I keep going back to. Distracted wandering seems to play more to my subconscious, which is far less undecided than my conscious mind. To be almost mystical about it, one symbol "resonates" with me on a subconscious level, while the rest hold no fascination. While I always read about the usage of the symbol, I find it most accurate to let my subconscious work hard and let my conscious mind agree. If I were doing something as permanent as a tattoo, I'd probably choose a combination of many different symbols and sigils with the same meaning.

I recently moved into a house an it is very unique. Someone told me that some of the decor looks "Pagan" on the outside doors and courtyard. Can I send photos and see what you think?
- January 23, 2016 at 8:16 pm
Okay, I went into my grandmother's crafting room and found a witch's bible along with some cards, a book full of herbal mixtures, and a box full of herbs. This shocked me!
Before I found this, I went in to look at the jewelry she's made. I found a metal triquetra, or celtic knot, and she asked if I liked it. I had no idea what it was and I thought it looked cool so she put a necklace chain on it and gave it to me.
I wanted to find out what it was so I did some research. It didn't surprise me when I found out it had something to do with wicca or however you'd say it. All I'm wondering is… does it have some sort of meaning?
- April 5, 2016 at 8:14 pm
Its both are actually taken as a sign of protection. The triqueta is a sign for the holy three (father,son,holy spirit) and the celtic knot is for a balance in good and evil. So really there's nothing to worry about. She is just looking out for you. If have any other questions ask me or even ask your grandmother. She may have a lot to say
- September 18, 2015 at 8:28 pm
My cousin has a pendant that belonged to our grandmother….is there a way I can send photos and possibly find out what it means.
- September 16, 2015 at 9:12 pm
Hi, I recently moved into a house that I found "am" on the windows. I have recently been told a wife was trying to talk to her recently dead husband and she was wiccan. What does the 'am' stand for? Her husband died by suicide in the house.
- August 2, 2015 at 10:09 pm
Can I show you a picture of symbols my girlfriend found on floorboards under old carpet in bedrooms in their big country farmhouse they just bought? Thanks.
- May 15, 2015 at 10:31 pm
I just wanted to say thank you. Due to the availability of information on the internet, this makes it easier to find what you're looking for automatically. information at our finger tips. We accept everyone, regardless of religion, gender, race, etc. United we Stand. We are all family, brothers and sisters of the Earth. Regardless of religion preference, there should be NO negative, bashing comments on here. And SHAME on those of you who are leaving them! I'm 26 years old, and practicing Wicca and Neo-pagan ways since I was about 11 years old. Studied multiple and various other religions. But nothing has ever felt …… Right. Until I walked the path of the Moon, the Goddess and the Horned One. Being one with the Earth. Energy. This is the path for me. And there's no shame in it. Blessed Be!

My boy friend weres a pentacle ring that he turns inside his hand when where out.Then he gives me a ring that's pink with a heart.What you think this means?
- January 3, 2016 at 9:17 am
Well Jade, ive recently began some curious research, dwelling in the mysteries & secrets of Gnostism, Pythagorean discoveries & basic western magik. I know that the color (Pink) represents Love, platonic love, friendship, kindness, emotional healing. And the heart symbol represents direct expression of love upon the person and or object it is scribed.
So if intentional emphasis was focused on the color and symbol of your ring by your dude, means he has an enormous amount of love for you
- January 3, 2016 at 10:40 am
As for the pentacle ring, it would be difficult to say what exactly it represents to him. The pentacle is the esoteric [pentagram; (the star in the circle). The Pentagram has been a part of Ancient history for thousands of years by ancient cultures from the Mayans of Latin America, to India, China, Greece, and Egypt. Its been found scratched on the walls of Neolithic caves, and in Babylonian drawings.
The pentacle (5 pointed star) has more esoteric focus behind its use through symbolized representations; most popular being- (earth, fire, water, air and spirit.)
Currently, the most common religious uses of the pentagram are by Wiccan, Neopagan, and Satanic groups. In most Wiccan and Neopagan traditions, its symbolic meaning is derived from Ceremonial magick and nineteenth century occultism- the four elements ruled by the spirit- although as these theologies have matured, they have added to its meaning.
In many of these traditions, it can also symbolize the unity of mankind with the earth or with the realm of the spirit, the human body, and more.
Its very confusing as you can tell lol
This is why the intentions of its use are hard to determine unless its infact being used satanicly, in which case identifying the nature of its practice can be quite easy if reguarding details.

The pentacle ring? Four elements and the soul at the center. Turning it towards the palm of his hand? Either he's not sure about a reaction to the Ring's symbolism ( not comfy with being seen as Wiccan or afraid of people of other religions believing he's Satanic [which still happens even after the advent of the neo-Wiccan movement]), or if he's comfy with the symbolism and religious significance, it may be for inner balance. Turning the balance of the elements inward, toward the body, "aims" the sigil back to the self. Perhaps he's usually shy or tends to get overwhelmed when out and about? It's all about balance, and he's turning the balance within.

The goddess really does care for you. I read a book that changed my life and the way I saw spirituality. It says don't follow spirituality where it is dead. Don't follow a spiritual path because you were forced into, guilt-tripped, or afraid of anything other than it. The goddess is waiting for you with open arms. She helped me let go of some of the bitterness and resentment from my previous spiritual path. She helped me understand the beauty in nature, motherly love, creativity, intuition, and feminine power. She can help you too. Believe it or not, I'm only in this path because it felt right for me. This was the spirituality that was alive for me, and I hope it helps you too. Sorry to go on a rampage.

Hell Amy, can you help me on my journey towards accepting wiccan? It seems so right
- May 16, 2015 at 1:06 pm
Amy~You apologize at the end of your post and you need not be sorry for stating your beliefs so beautifully and honestly. You've followed the Wiccan Rede and done no harm. You are blessed to be on your path.
Blessed Be

What was the book called?
- November 29, 2014 at 3:17 am
i have written before asking for help. I found myself displaying the horned-hand sign and worst is that i do this unwillingly and i have tried to stop it but could not. This means that something is in control of me but i don't know what it is. Does this mean that i'm a wiccan? Please help me out. Please?
- May 16, 2015 at 1:10 pm
It means you have something in your subconscious mind that needs to be freed. It is not negative…it is nuetral. Meditate on it. Wiccan is a spiritual path and if you're meant to follow it, study all the good and light that it brings. The horned symbol with your hand usually means "metal" music, that is all. Blessed Be
- October 8, 2014 at 6:51 pm
I found this very useful as I am a wicca myself and I can successfully teach my students the light magic as I please.

I need help translating something a so called Wiccan gave my boyfriend for luck, we have had nothing but bad luck since. He lost his job 3 days after receiving this paper with symbols on it and I've lost mine as well. Can anyone help me to translate??

- April 8, 2014 at 7:09 pm
My brother found a box buried in his yard that I think might have Wiccan writing on it. I'm very curious about what it says/means. I have photos that I can share, but can't post here.
Can someone please advise me on my next step.
Thank you!

the cross of JESUS , only the blood of JESUS can protect you and your family.
- May 1, 2015 at 10:09 am
Everyone is entitled to there own beliefs and therefore you cannot say such to others.I am pagan wiccan and I believe that we all are of true blood of the family no different that wolves or dogs. We all believe in different things but because of so some feel that they must hurt one another to prove that they are right. Such with the crusaders did. They hunted innocent people who believed different. And even today We have such wars. Peace can bring healing but wars bring only suffering and despair. When will we learn to just accept one another as brothers and sisters I know not.but I do hope one day it shall happen.

- March 15, 2014 at 1:33 am
ok you REALLY need to learn the English language I mean seriously half way through reading that I became violently sick with your lack of common grammar seriously please, please, PLEASE don't post anything ever again….sweet jesus
- May 10, 2014 at 1:15 am
Okay, for starters, learn to spell and correct your grammar before posting anything.
Also, I doubt you know the person who was helpful enough to post this information personally. You don't know what they've been through, whether they've got parents or not, what kind of life they lead before they were influenced by Paganism.
Secondly; you don't just run away, bump into the local coven on a street somewhere and that's it you're part of their group.
Thirdly; what are you going to gain from insulting them?
Lastly; you're probably some arrogant little kid looking to cause a flame war over the internet. If that is indeed the case, you're on the wrong site.
My suggestion? Go back to your Justin Bieber videos.
- March 28, 2015 at 9:41 am
Never mind them because what matters is ur message's being received, and it has for me. so, thank u very much for ur advice.
- February 14, 2014 at 10:24 pm
I think that as a Wiccan it is important to recognize that whatever religion, faith or spiritual path that one chooses, they all have the same end result. A thirst for understanding the Divine. While Christianity may be the most prevelant that many of us are familiar with, it is important to remember that our faiths share many of the same qualities and lessons. By looking at the similarities and finding common ground, we can show through love, patience and understanding that we are all focused on the same thing. A quest to come closer to the Divine. Whether one calls the Divine God, Jehovah, Allah, Buddah–these names do not matter. There are all one in the same.
- May 18, 2016 at 4:16 pm
Thank you so very much for saying that!!! That's the truth! I have been studying various religions, for personal reasons, and, like you stated, there are a lot of similarities. I wish others weren't blind to this fact so we can finally have peace. These religious wars aren't proving anything, but a lack of respect for one another's lives. We need to embrace our similarities and bury the hachet so to speak. Thanks for hearing me out.
- January 27, 2014 at 3:10 pm
are these even real symbols?
I know that there is 2 ways to draw a pentagram and one of them is on there but I don't know about the others.
There is also more symbols than what is on here…
- October 20, 2013 at 4:11 pm
I have a question,i have recently saw a symbol not on here. it is a circle with a upside down cross and a star in it, with a black jem in the middle. Any ideas on what it could be?
- October 6, 2013 at 10:38 am
i have a cresent moon tattoo of luna. Ive had it for a while and at times it just feels like its burning like fire. would anyone know what that means?
- September 29, 2013 at 3:04 pm
Good afternoon. For years I've been searching for what this could mean IF anything, and I'm hoping someone will see this and have an answer.
I was born with a 5 point star on my forehead. In every picture that was taken of me, it isn't visible, it appears as a smudge. It has since faded away but if I hold my head in a certain angle or light hits it just so, it's faintly seen. Does this mean anything? Thx!
- September 19, 2013 at 11:43 pm
I have a question. i had a dream and in it i remember being in a wedding dress a man beside me in a suit i was in a red room with fire in the back he had his hand on mine he said no matter. where u go or what u do it will always find u when he moved his hand i looked. down and on my hand was a string of black pearls with a 5 point star. what does this mean anyone?
- December 17, 2013 at 5:09 am
Everything happens 4 reasons dreams are our conchious no one but you can clearly determine your dream only you know the feelings attatched 1st i would get a dream journal immediatly after waking up write in detail feelings included overall reoccouring dreams continue till you resolve them fire is passion black the combination of all colors many times relative to evil not true darkness is da.rk because it has not yet been seen possibly symbolic for nieave based on balance no white with out black diamonds start as coal also this particular man represents passion ballpark guess your sttracted to the wild men that exillerate you and the root of attraction is the dangerous men because u know anyway fire shows passion so the pasdion side is always good but everything else is dark your marriage mentally are those most capable to hurt you inner deamonds are trying to help you resolve yourself
- August 23, 2013 at 7:43 pm
LivingForChrist:The bible says that god says for men not to judge other men. That only he may do that. You are judging. I grew up in an abusive home . It also was a Strict Christian home. God is supposed to be loving and caring. All I ever got in that was hatred, abuse, and the bible quoted at me constantly. I was told that I was going to burn in the fires of hell for eternity at the age of 9. I turns to Wicca in my freshman year of highschool. Wicca is about peace love acceptance. It is about honoring the earth and life itself. About harming none. I feel loved and accepted. I not judged by other wiccans. They accept me for who I am. Christianity gave me hatred, Wicca gave me love. You do the math. I will follow my own path and not let crazy religious fanatics like you and my DNA donors tell me how to live my life.
- December 17, 2013 at 6:11 am
Well i can say if you need someone to agree with you Agreed every path that we are all on is not nessesarily the path we choose but the path chosen for us all included honestly all religions when boiled down good vs evil its a good thing that right now this is bothering because it shows you care and as long as you do care and stay open enough to hear your calling youll be ok personally with much thought included god is vast so vast beyond the entire universe so vast that infinity still is in no comparison so aside any BOOKS jyour calling will find you your heart is the key and you are golden as long as what you do has heart and reason care not what others think infact they dont even have to know the good you do and the good in your heart will speak for you and lastly fear creates hate and people only fear what they dont know or understand your allowed to have secrets as long as your real with god and yourself your path is yours protect it and speak nothing of it to small minds i think your better than that dont leave doors open to just anyone i believe in you bless it be*******
- December 20, 2013 at 4:36 pm
i am a thirteen year old wiccan living in a very christian home.i hate it too. all the time i am getting told that i am going to rot in hell if i keep on practicing wicca,getting read scriptures from the bible,its pretty annoying. my sister is the one that introduced me to wicca, and she got kicked out of my house because of it. ever since then i knew that the christain path was not for me, so i follow my goddess, and she has helped me through my life.
- January 9, 2014 at 3:03 pm
Hi Tori,
God is right about the judging thing. We all have our paths, we pick a lot of what is in them prior, the free will is where it gets dicy. I just told a friend 2 nights ago at dinner, I went to a Catholic school while being was raised by the devil. (Adopted, only child, trapped in hell with a woman whose husband left her) I can relate to parents finding bliss in their malicious torture. These people are obvious to you now, thankfully before they can do harm to such an extent. You will be able to help people by sharing how you were able to overcome this. You have your "me" and they cannot take that from you. You are beautiful! Unfortunately, sometimes we end up in the position in life where we have to parent ourselves. Tell yourself what you know you deserve to hear. What you know a loving mom and dad would tell their children, what you will tell yours. You are love. What differentiates me from them is that I know this about myself. You know you're good, and worthy. Say it! Mean it!! They on the other hand, do not yet know their truth and are so lost, their 'me' seems to be a memory at times. When you have your distance and safety, you can see to be sad for them. How lonely and cold for them. The best thing to fight off evil, is its balance. I think the negative energy judgment requires means we are giving away our power. This is why I think God says do not judge. It is not worth your time and the lesson is not for you. It is their path, thankfully, not yours. Continue listening to your 'me'. God never left you. Ask your angels for a sign, if you do this with a pure heart, you will find an answer. And just to note, I have had many out of body experiences and have seen a number of 'ethnicities' in the spirit world, including Native American, Asian and Caucasian.. I remember things from the bible yet was also a shaman. By God, I mean a higher power, the universal consciousness.
- January 25, 2014 at 6:55 pm
Well met. I myself have been almost every religion out there lol. I know how hateful people can be, but have also seen the love others give so freely. After many many years of researching religion and other spiritual paths I sort of created my own. I believe in a creator, be it an energy force or some giant humanoid being I do not know. I also favor the god/goddess as semi singular in so much as the dark/light or good/evil, you need one to have the other. I live my life accepting others for who they are, I do not try to change anyone. That in mind, I expect the same in return. No matter where you look there will always be 2 sides, we can not box people in groups, each of us is an individual so view them that way.
- March 28, 2015 at 9:49 am
Hello Tori I'm so glad that you found your way finally, there's nothing like finding our inner peace and truly feeling the sense of belonging.

CAMBRIDGE, Mass. – Following a four-year hiatus from competition, former captain and current MIT fencing assistant coach, Evangelos Efstathiou '00, will participate in the International Fencing Federation (FIE) World Cup to be held this weekend in Padova, Italy. His qualification to the event came after a 24th place finish at the North American Cup which occurred this past December.
A two-time third-place finisher at the New England Championship, Efstathiou collected sabre second-team all-star accolades from the Northeast Fencing Conference. After graduation, he continued to train with MIT head coach Jarek Koniusz as he began competing at the international level. During Efstathiou's career which lasted through the 2008 Olympic cycle, he reached 83rd in the 2004 World Rankings.

Sanford, Colbert sister advance in Congress race
A high-profile race is developing for an open House seat from South Carolina. Former Governor Mark Sanford is in a runoff for the Republican nomination. Democrats nominated Elizabeth Busch Colbert, the sister of comedian Stephen Colbert. (March 20) AP
The former South Carolina governor who admitted an extramarital affair was the top vote-getter for the GOP nomination in his old congressional district.
WASHINGTON — Disgraced ex-governor Mark Sanford cleared the first hurdle of his political comeback bid on Tuesday night, earning a spot in a South Carolina runoff for the GOP nomination in his former congressional district.
The winner of the April 2 GOP runoff will face Democrat Elizabeth Colbert Busch, a political novice with a famous last name. She is the older sister of comedian Stephen Colbert and the director of business development at a former naval shipyard.
Colbert Busch easily defeated perennial candidate Ben Frasier to win her party's nomination. The Associated Press declared Sanford had earned a spot in the runoff a couple of hours after polls closed.
Sanford, whose extramarital affair in 2009 derailed his political career, was easily the top vote-getter among 16 Republicans running to replace Tim Scott in the U.S. House. There was a tight race for the second spot in the GOP runoff between ex-Charleston County Council member Curtis Bostic and state Sen. Larry Grooms.
South Carolina's 1st District, a Republican stronghold, is centered in Charleston and runs along the Atlantic Coast from Hilton Head Island to Georgetown County. Scott, who was appointed to the U.S. Senate in January, won a second House term last year by more than a 2 to 1 margin. Republican Mitt Romney carried the district in the presidential election by 18 percentage points.
Sanford has high name recognition in the district, which he represented for six years before being elected governor in 2002, but the crowded GOP field made it difficult for him to go over the 50% required to avoid a runoff. His final vote total Tuesday night could provide clues on whether he will have an easy or difficult time in the next round of balloting.
Katon Dawson, a former state Republican Party chairman, said he believes voters will be able to get past Sanford's infidelity. He said the concern he hears is that Sanford lied and covered up the affair. Sanford disappeared for several days in 2009, telling his staff he was hiking on the Appalachian Trail when in reality he was visiting his mistress in Argentina.
"It's still his to lose and someone else's to win," Dawson said. "I'm not condoning the affair but I think the question is will voters forgive him for not telling the truth."
As he cast his ballot earlier Tuesday, Sanford said it was a "treat and a blessing " to be facing voters again.
"We all hope for a second chance. I believe in a God of second chances," said Sanford, who is now divorced and engaged to Maria Belen Chapur, his former mistress.
Colbert Busch vowed to be the voice of all people in the 1st District, regardless of party affiliation. She also had a special message to women voters.
"Our history tells us South Carolina has sent only two women to Washington," she said. "Perhaps that is why the voices of thousands of mothers and fathers living paycheck to paycheck are often drowned out by other priorities and agendas. When I was a young, single mother I personally knew that feeling. I am ready to speak up for those voices."
Democrats have high hopes for Colbert Busch, who has done well with fundraising and grass-roots organizing. Dawson said it's clear that the Democratic Party will make Sanford the issue if he is the GOP nominee, since it is a narrative that the Republican himself injected in the special election.
The concern for Republicans is what happens if the runoff is too damaging to their candidates, which might give Colbert Busch an opening in the May 7 general election.
"The people of South Carolina are tired of this Congress' extreme ideology and dysfunction," said Rep. Steve Israel of New York, chairman of the Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee. "Elizabeth Colbert Busch offers a breath of fresh air, standing on the side of sensible solutions that strengthen the middle class."
Katie Prill, a spokeswoman for the House GOP campaign committee, said Colbert Busch has "liberal-Obama policies" that are "dramatically out-of-step with South Carolina values."
"Republicans can rest assured that our nominee will champion pro-growth policies that will bring jobs back to South Carolina."
Special elections are typically low turnout affairs that bring out only the most committed voters. Democrats have shown since 2008 that they can run winning campaigns in these short races — in New York, Mississippi, Louisiana and Illinois — where Republicans previously held congressional seats.
Gibbs Knotts, chairman of the political science department at the College of Charleston, said that kind of success would require Republicans to make mistakes and Colbert Busch to have the resources to stay competitive. In the run-up to the primary, Stephen Colbert helped his beloved big sister "Lulu" raise campaign funds in New York and Charleston.
"A very smart, well-run campaign could win, but it's still a pretty big hill to climb for Democrats," Knotts said.

In recent years Judaism has seen an immense worldwide-growth in popularity. More and more people of diverse levels of religiosity are attempting to learn about Jewish life and feel more connected to their heritage. Even some of Hollywood's most famous luminaries have been known to study Kabbalah, Jewish mysticism. In addition to turning to Jewish literature in order to better understand the religion, many decide to practice it with the aid of Synagogue Items. For this purpose, many inquirers choose to visit a Judaica store.
The world of Judaica encompasses virtually all possible objects pertinent to Judaism. It comprises mainly, but not exclusively, of articles that are inseparable parts of the religion, such as the Judaica Tallit, also spelled Tallis. This is the prayer shawl that Jewish men wear when they pray according to their custom; most Ashkenazi Jews wear the tallit every day once they get married, while Sephardic Jews wear it daily long before they tie the knot- usually once they turn thirteen years old at their Bar Mitzvahs.
Another example of an object that is not only an intrinsic part of Judaism but is also immensely popular in Judaica stores is the Mezuzah. Contrary to popular belief, mezuzah is not the outside holder, also known as mezuzah case; rather, it is the scroll within the case. On the scroll are passages carefully written by a professional scribe. Although the mezuzah's true significance is in the scroll, people pay great attention to the mezuzah case and its appearance, and some pay exorbitant prices for striking cases to adorn their doorposts.
Decorative mezuzahs are not the only example of fundamental religious items that Judaica offers in an array of colors and styles. Take the famous Kippah, also known by its Yiddish term yarmulke or yamaka. This is the small skullcap Jewish men wear on their heads at all times. Since the days of old, Jews wore head coverings symbolic of their subjugation to God. Thus, the yamaka became a regular part of the Jew's attire. However, Jews, like all people, have different styles and tastes when it comes to aesthetics. Thus, every Jewish store offer kippahs in numerous colors, sizes, shapes and materials. Certain types of kippahs have even become identifiable with specific sects of Judaism. For example, a black velvet Kippah is normally associated with Haredi Jews. It is no wonder, then, that several Judaica stores specialize solely in kippahs!
Shofars are another fundemental item, used in Rosh Hashanah and Yom Kippur, also known as the High Holidays. Shofars come in various sizes and styles, mostly made from natural kudu or ram's horn and embellished in silver plating or hand-painted. At times choosing the perfect shofar can be a challenging task, especially if you are shopping for wedding gifts. Learn about the various Shofars and how to choose the best shofar for your purposes in our OyVey Jewish blog.
Judaica offers anything from vital ritual-items to antique Jewish Jewelry, Jewish art, and, of course, Jucaica gifts. The latter category is inexhaustible, with new items inundating the Judaica market constantly. Tip-of-the-iceberg examples are ornamented candlesticks, Star of David key chains, and even T-shirts.
Judaica has become a wonderful way of getting acquainted with Judaism. With its myriad goods, it has no age, sex or level of religiosity limits. Whether you are a learned practitioner of Judaism or a tyro- Judaica has something for you.
Judaica Guide
Judaica is what we're all about here at World of Judaica. Judaica has a long history and tradition that marches hand in hand with the broad, wandering history of its creators. Today, Judaica is created all across the world and is a mouse-click away from your own home and celebration. The goal at World of Judaica is to bring the world's Judaica to one place where you can comfortably find exactly what fits your needs.
What is Judaica?
Judaica is the term which defines all marketable products related to Judaism. The most popular of these is of course the Hanukkah menorah recognized across the world as a Jewish symbol. Other notables include tallitot, kippot, Shabbat candlesticks, Kiddush cups, mezuzahs, dreidels, shofars, and seder plates just to name a few.
There has always been a market for Judaica among Jewish populations. The belief that a mitzvah is exalted when using higher quality objects, has led to huge demand for a wide variety of Judaica. Here at World of Judaica we've put the many different sources of Judaica together for your shopping convenience.
Judaica, like almost any other product is highly preferred in the richest materials possible but Jewish history also has a say in the most attractive pieces of Judaica. Silver is generally considered the best of Judaica for its cultural significance. When picturing the wandering, displaced Jew, most imagine him/her going as light as possible with only his/her most prized possessions. The most famous of these items were silver Shabbat candlesticks: worth both spiritual value and large amounts of money.
Now there are several designers of rich items of silver Judaica. Hadad Brothers and Hatzorfim are two of the most commonly recognized and featured at World of Judaica. However, Judaica can be made of nearly any material. These include products of beautiful glass, challah covers of silk, or mezuzahs of wood.
Also unique to Judaica is the array of designs used to enhance the beauty of these pieces of cultural significance. Most motifs are also closely connected to Judaism and include the well-recognized Star of David, the Hanukkah menorah, pomegranates, or elaborate drawings of Jerusalem.
These decorations are where the artistry of Judaica comes in. Well recognized artists such as Yair Emanuel splash images of their own unique views of Judaism and its important symbols on all sorts of Judaica products. The Yair Emanuel Tallit or Yair Emanuel challah cover are excellent examples of an artist's unique spin on an art form of ancient tradition that is Judaica.

Magic trick for Kubuntu users:
1. Make an empty new directory ~/.compose-cache
2. Start a KDE application which has a text input widget (anything with a line edit or editable combo box will do)
3. Check ~/.compose-cache, it should now have a file in it whoose name is a long string of numbers
All being well, your Qt/KDE/Gtk applications should now start up 50-150ms faster.
Users of other distros are welcome to give it a try, I have only been able to test directly on Kubuntu. If you have a non-empty /var/cache/libx11/compose folder (eg. SuSE users) then this optimization is already enabled so you don't need to do anything.
For those curious about what is going on here, this enables an optimization which Lubos (of general KDE speediness fame) came up with some time ago and was then rewritten and integrated into libx11. Ordinarily on startup applications read input method information from /usr/share/X11/locale/<your locale>/Compose. This Compose file is quite long (>5000 lines for the en_US.UTF-8 one) and takes some time to process. libX11 can create a cache of the parsed information which is much quicker to read subsequently, but it will only re-use an existing cache in /var/cache/libx11/compose or create a new one in ~/.compose-cache if the directory already exists.

State Sen. George Maziarz, R-C-Newfane, has announced he has again been welcomed into the New York Farm Bureau's "Circle of Friends." The award, bestowed by the state's largest farm advocacy organization, is an indication of Maziarz' support of New York agriculture and the Farm Bureau during the 2012 legislative session.
Maziarz said, "Agriculture is vital to our Senate district and to the entire state of New York. Farming supports families, creates jobs, and puts food on our tables. I am proud to be a strong advocate for agriculture in state government, and I will continue to work hard to see that family farms can flourish in our region."
The legislative award is based upon the legislator's voting record on issues of importance to New York agriculture, as well as other evidence of legislative support during the 2012 legislative session. Maziarz has received the award every year since he was first elected to the State Senate in 1995.
New York Farm Bureau, a nonpartisan, volunteer organization, is the state's largest agricultural lobbying/trade organization. New York Farm Bureau is dedicated to solving the economic and public policy issues challenging the agricultural community.

HARTSVILLE, S.C. – For the first time in five years the Coker College women's volleyball team will be making an appearance in the Conference Carolinas Women's Volleyball Tournament. The Cobras will take on the No. 2 seed from the West Division North Greenville University in a quarterfinal match on Saturday (Nov. 10); the Cobras are the No. 3 seed from the East Division.
"I'm very excited to have the program back in the tournament after a five year hiatus," said head coach Todd Caughlin. "This group of student-athletes set a goal at the beginning of the season to be one of the top four teams in the East Division, and after a tough season of ups and downs - they accomplished the that goal."
The Cobras defeated Converse College 3-2 on Nov. 3, solidifying their spot in the tournament.
Led by hitter Taylor Willis, setter Samantha Celek and libero Brittany Bass, the Cobras are poised to make a run for the conference tournament championship. Willis leads the team in kills with 303, while Celek has handed out 859 assists and Bass has 445 digs and a team leading 30 aces.
Coker and North Greenville have met just one time this season, back on Sept. 29. The Crusaders defeated the Cobras 3-1.
The last time Coker advanced to the league tournament was in 2007. The Cobras were the No. 4 seed in the tournament. They defeated Pfeiffer in the quarterfinals, but lost to Limestone in the semifinal match.
The Cobras and the Crusaders will take the floor at 4:30 p.m. at North Greenville. The match will be streamed live online at www.cokercobras.com.
