After the season, Mets COO Jeff Wilpon said Jerry Manuel and Omar Minaya would be held accountable, that the standards bar has been raised.
That's still the case after his impromptu visit to Atlanta yesterday. "I'm not here to fire anybody,'' Wilpon said, which doesn't mean he won't later.
How else can you interpret him saying, "I wouldn't be here if I was happy,'' other than putting them on notice?
Neither Manuel nor Minaya have had a great run since the end of last season. I didn't like how he handled moving Jose Reyes to third, but he was seeking a solution and sometimes the things you try backfire.
As far as the front office goes, we all knew pitching was this team's weakness and that there was little margin for error. There weren't many great choices, but what are the options now with Oliver Perez exiled and Jon Niese injured? Say hello to journeyman R.A. Dickey.
The Mets are where they are despite poor starting pitching – save that 9-1 homestand – a creaky bullpen, a listless offense that has David Wright on pace for over 200 strikeouts and Jason Bay on track for only four homers, and, of course, not having Carlos Beltran.
Considering what has gone on, the Mets are fortunate to be one game below .500. Things can, and have, been a lot worse.
Wilpon said at the end of last season he would give Manuel and Minaya a chance to make things right and 40 games is too small of a window. Let's see where they are at the All-Star break, and if they are within striking distance, let's see who they bring in.

Tiger Great Billy Cannon Elected to College Football Hall of Fame
LSU Sports Interactive
BATON ROUGE -- LSU's legendary halfback Billy Cannon, the winner of the 1959 Heisman Trophy who led the Tigers to the 1958 national championship, has been elected to the prestigious College Football Hall of Fame, it was announced Thursday.
Cannon will be inducted into the Hall of Fame along with 12 other former college gridiron greats and two coaching legends at the National Football Foundation's Annual Awards Dinner in New York City at the Waldorf-Astoria Hotel on December 9. He will be the first LSU player inducted into the Hall since Tommy Casanova was honored in 1995.
"LSU has always been near and dear to my heart, and I know this will be a credit to the university and the football program," Cannon said. "Playing on the first national championship team in 1958 and winning the Heisman Trophy in 1959 were great thrills, and I must remember all of my teammates, trainers and coaches who were there as well. No one person can do anything alone. It takes many, many people to win a national championship. I am grateful that I was able to play with those talented men.
"LSU has won two national championships recently and I hope I see them win many more. LSU is an incredible school academically and athletically. I am deeply honored to have been chosen and I am even prouder that I will always be an LSU Tiger."
Other inductees include Troy Aikman of UCLA (1987-88), Jim Dombrowski of Virginia (1982-85), Pat Fitzgerald of Northwestern (1994-96), Wilber Marshall of Florida (1980-83), Rueben Mayes of Washington State (1982-85), Randall McDaniel of Arizona State (1984-87), Don McPherson of Syracuse (1984-87), Jay Novacek of Wyoming (1982-84), Dave Parks of Texas Tech (1961-63), Ron Simmons of Florida State (1977-80), Thurman Thomas of Oklahoma State (1984-87) and Arnold Tucker of Army (1944-46).
Inductees in the coaches' category will be John Cooper, who coached at Tulsa, Arizona State and Ohio State, and Lou Holtz, former coach at William & Mary, North Carolina State, Arkansas, Minnesota, Notre Dame and South Carolina.
Cannon was a rare athlete, even by today's standards, combining sprinter speed with brute strength. He could consistently run a 9.5 in the 100-yard dash and, at 6-foot-1, 210 pounds, he had the size to overpower his opponents as well as outrun them.
The Baton Rouge native was an immediate standout as a sophomore in 1957, starring on both offense and defense for LSU. As a junior in 1958, he was the driving force behind the Tigers as they carved out a perfect season and claimed the national title that season. He passed for a touchdown and kicked the extra point in LSU's 7-0 win over Clemson in the Sugar Bowl to earn MVP honors in that game.
Cannon's most memorable performance came in his senior season of 1959 against Ole Miss. Top-ranked LSU trailed the third-ranked Rebels 3-0 early in the fourth quarter when Cannon fielded a punt at the LSU 11 and broke seven tackles on his way to a winning touchdown, as the Tigers won 7-3. The run helped cement the Heisman Trophy for Cannon in 1959.
In his three-year career from 1957-59 Cannon rushed for 1,867 yards on 359 carries and scored 24 rushing touchdowns. He also caught 31 passes for 522 yards and two touchdowns. An all-purpose player who was also a defensive standout, Cannon returned 31 punts for 349 yards and 21 kickoffs for 616 yards in his career, punted 111 times for an average of 36.7 yards a punt and intercepted seven passes. He also completed 12 of 26 pass attempts for 121 yards.
Cannon, the only football player in LSU history to have his jersey retired, played 11 years in professional football, the first 10 in the American Football League, helping lead the Houston Oilers to the AFL title in 1961 and 1962.
Cannon joins five other former Tiger greats in the College Football Hall of Fame, Doc Fenton (1907-09), Abe Mickal (1933-35), Gaynell "Gus" Tinsley (1934-36), Ken Kavanaugh (1937-39), and Tommy Casanova (1969-71). Former LSU coaches who are in the Hall include Dana X. Bible (1916), Mike Donahue (1923-27), Biff Jones (1932-34), Bernie Moore (1935-47) and Charles McClendon (1962-79).

Nothing says cool like doing something off limits--like having dessert first. One of my kids' favorite things for dinner is to have breakfast for dinner. Anything at all: pancakes, waffles, cereal, French toast . . .
So why not surprise your child with breakfast for lunch? The next time you're making up pancakes or French toast or another breakfast delight, make a little extra to freeze and stick in their lunch. An Eggo waffle with jam, a tiny little stack of pancakes with cream cheese and fruit, a "pig in a blanket," breakfast pizza, scrambled eggs in a tortilla, even a cup of cold cereal to munch on straight from the cup would be fun. You could even try the standard PB&J between two pancakes, waffles or French toast and see what the reaction is.
I imagine that the kid who brings Lucky Charms will officially be The Coolest Kid at the Table.
Did you hear? The Winter Bazaar is starting next Wednesday--get those Halloween ideas ready!

(1) The entire subject of healing is as old as the ages themselves, and has ever been the subject of investigation and experiment. But as to the right use of the healing faculty and forces, the knowledge is in its infancy. Only in this age and generation, is it at last possible to impart the laws of magnetic [Page 153] healing, and to indicate the causes of those diseases - originating in the three inner bodies - which today devastate the human frame, cause endless suffering and pain, and usher man through the portal which leads to the world of bodiless existence. Only today is man at the point in the evolution of his consciousness where he can begin to realise the power of the subjective worlds, and the new and vast science of psychology is his response to this growing interest. Processes of adjustment, of elimination and of cure, engage the minds of all thoughtful people, as well as of all suffering people. We have much to do, and I ask therefore for patience on your part.
When one enters the realm of healing, one enters a world of much esoteric knowledge, and of an infinity of conclusions, and one is faced with the formulations of many minds, who, through the ages, have sought to heal and to help. The why and the wherefore of disease have been the subject of endless investigations and speculations, and much definite deduction has been made as to the cures of such complaints; there has been also much formulation of methods, of techniques, of formulae, of prescription, of varied manipulations, and of theories. All these serve to fill the mind with many ideas - some correct, some erroneous - and this makes it most difficult for new ideas to enter, and for the student to assimilate the hitherto unknown.
Aspirants lose much by refusing to let go of that which the lower mind cherishes. When they do succeed in being entirely open minded, and are ready to accept the new theories and hypotheses, they discover that the old and dearly held truth is not really lost, but only relegated to its rightful place in a larger scheme.
All initiates of the Ageless Wisdom are necessarily healers, though all may not heal the physical body. The reason for this is that all souls that have achieved any measure of true liberation are transmitters of spiritual energy. This automatically affects some aspect of the mechanism which is used by the souls they contact. When I employ the word "mechanism" in these instructions, I refer to different aspects of the instrument, the body or form nature, through which all souls seek manifestation. (17 - 1/2).
(2) The basic law underlying all occult healing, may be stated to be as follows:
Law I: All disease is the result of inhibited soul life, and that is true of all forms in all kingdoms. The art of the healer consists in releasing the soul, so that its life can flow through the aggregate of organisms which constitute any particular form.
It is interesting to note that the attempt of the scientist to release the [Page 154] energy of the atom, is of the same general nature as the work of the esotericist when he endeavours to release the energy of the soul. In this release the nature of the true art of healing is hidden. Herein lies an occult hint. (17 - 5).
(3) There are three ways in which healing can be brought about, and all three ways have their place and value, dependent upon the point in evolution of the subject being healed.
First, there is the application of those palliatives and ameliorating methods which gradually cure disease, and eliminate undesirable conditions; they build up the form life and foster the vitality, so that disease can be thrown off. Of these methods the allopathic and the homeopathic schools, and the various osteopathic and chiropractic and other therapeutic schools are good exponents. They have done much good and constructive work, and the debt of humanity to the wisdom, skill and unselfish attentions of the physicians is great. They are dealing all the time with urgent conditions, and dangerous effects of causes which are not apparent on the surface. Under these methods, the patient is in the hands of an outside party, and should be passive, quiescent, and negative.
Secondly, there is the appearance of the work and methods of the modern psychologist, who seeks to deal with subjective conditions, and to straighten out those wrong attitudes of mind, those inhibitions, psychoses and complexes, which bring about the outer states of disease, the morbid conditions, and neurotic and mental disasters. Under this method, the patient is taught to co-operate as much as he can with the psychologist, so that he may arrive at a proper understanding of himself, and so learn to eradicate those inner compelling situations, which are responsible for the outer results; He is trained to be positive and active, and this is a great step in the right direction. The tendency to combine psychology with the outer physical treatment, is sound and right.
Thirdly, the highest and newest method, is that of calling into positive activity a man's own soul. The true and the future healing is brought about when the life of the soul can flow without any impediment and hindrance throughout every aspect of the form nature. It can then vitalise it with its potency, and can also eliminate those congestions and obstructions, which are such a fruitful source of disease.
This gives you much to ponder upon. (17 - 16/7).
(4) I would also like to point out that the diseases of the masses, for the average citizen, for the intelligentsia, and for the disciples of the world may, and do, differ widely - not so much in their expression, as in the field [Page 155] of their expression. This is a point most difficult for the average healer to recognise; it is not easy or possible for him to grasp these distinctions, and to gauge the point in evolution which a man may have reached. Some diseases must be dealt with from the mental plane, and will call in the mind of the healer; others require a concentration of emotional energy by the healing agent; and again, in other cases, the healer should seek to be only a transmitter of pranic energy to the etheric body of the patient, via his own etheric body . . . How few realise that no disciple, for instance, can place himself in the hands of the average magnetic healer or radiatory worker, or psychological expert of any kind! A disciple dare not subject himself to the auric emanations of any chance healer, nor put himself in the power of the inexperienced academic psychologist, no matter how prominent he may be. He may, however, subject himself to the wise skill of the physical plane physician or surgeon, as - for him - the physical body is but an automaton. He can therefore avail himself of physical means for its benefiting. (17 - 25/6).
(5) The healer in the New Age ... is also spiritually aware that the healing of the physical body is not always the highest spiritual good; the over-estimation and serious, anxious care of the form life of the physical vehicle, is not of major importance. (17 - 538).
(6) The healer has always to remember the following sequence of facts:
1. The fact of the soul, working through
2. the mind and the astral body, whose energies condition
3. the etheric vehicle, a vortex of energies focussed through numerous centres, both major and minor.
4. The seven major centres, controlling definite areas of the body via
a. The nadis.
b. The nerves.
c. The endocrine system.
d. The blood stream. (17 - 548).
(7) Any man or woman - given real interest and prompted by the incentive to serve - who thinks, and loves, can be a healer, and it is time that people grasped that fact. The entire process of healing is thought- directed; it concerns the direction of energy currents or their abstraction, and this is another way of speaking about radiation and magnetism. Every initiate is a healer, and the more advanced the initiate the less is he occupied with the intricacies of centres and forces, energies and their direction. He heals automatically, as was the case with the initiate, Peter; of him we read that "the shadow of Peter passing by, healed everyone of them." (17 - 601).
[Page 156]
(8) Only the Christ can heal by the use of the will, and He seldom in reality healed at all; in the cases where He is reported to have done so, His reason was to prove the possibility of healing; but - as you will note if you are familiar with the Gospel story - He gave no instructions to His disciples upon the art of healing. This is significant.
The self-will (no matter of how high a quality) of the healer, and his determined effort to heal the patient, create a tension in the healer which can seriously deflect the healing current of energy. (17 - 676/7).
(9) Here lies the secret of all scientific and occult healing. Healers are experimenting with the etheric body and yet little real knowledge is theirs. They know little or nothing of the centres in their own body through which the magnetic or other currents must flow; they are unaware of the condition of the etheric centres of those they seek to heal, and the nature of the forces they wish to employ. All they can do is to discipline their lives, and so control their appetites that they build a clean body and provide clear channels for the passage of forces from and through themselves to others. (4 - 290).
(10) It must be demonstrated to the world that the ancient power to heal, still lies in the hands of those who consistently follow the Christ. Those who use this power only for the sake of the little ones, taking and seeking no personal reward, can manifest the ancient way to heal, which has small resemblance to the modern methods of the mental schools. (13 - 516).
(1) The ills of men which affect the circulatory system, the kidneys, the bladder, and the lubrication of the joints, will find a cure in vegetable constituents and above all in the right adjustment of the emotional nature. (3 - 945).
(2) In cases of imbecility and idiocy, and in that stage of old age which we call senile decay, the thread which anchored in the brain is withdrawn, whilst that which conveys the life impulse or urge, remains still anchored in the heart. There is life but no intelligent awareness; there is movement but no intelligent direction; in the case of senile decay, when there has been a high grade apparatus utilised in life, there may be the appearance of intelligent functioning, but that is an illusion due to old habit and to old established rhythm, but not to co-ordinated coherent purpose. (4 - 497).
(3) Very few of the troubles of the dense physical body, arise within that body itself. A few arise directly in the etheric body, but at this stage [Page 157] of evolution, most of the troubles arise in the emotional body, and the remainder in the mental. We might generalise and say that:
25% of the ills flesh is heir to, arise in the etheric body.
25% in the mental body.
50% find their origin in the emotional body. (2 - 158/9).
(4) The question is often asked: Why is there frequently so much illness, nervous trouble, and various pathological conditions found among the saints of the earth, and among those who are clearly oriented towards the light? The answer is that the strain put upon the physical vehicle by the shift of the forces, is usually unduly great, and so produces these undesirable conditions. These again are often augmented by the foolish things done by the aspirant, as he seeks to bring his physical body under control. It is, however, far better for the undesirable results to work themselves out in the physical vehicle, than in the astral or mental bodies. This point is seldom realised, and hence the emphasis laid upon the idea that sickness, ill-health, and disease, are indicative of individual error, of failure, and of so-called sin. They can of course be all of these things, but, in the case of the true aspirant, who is endeavouring to discipline and control his life, they are often not due to these causes at all. They are the inevitable result of the clash of forces - those of the awakened energies, which are in progress of elevation, and those of the centre into which the energies are being raised. This clash produces strain, physical discomfort and (as we have seen), many distressing kinds of disorders. (15 - 544/5).
(5) Speaking generally, diseases fall into five major categories, and it is only with the last of them that we are here occupied. These five groupings of disease are:
1. Hereditary diseases:
a. Inherent in the planet itself, and having a definite effect upon humanity, through contact with the soil and water.
b. Developed during past ages in mankind itself, and handed on from generation to generation.
c. Characteristic of some particular family, and inherited by the member of this family as part of his chosen karma. Souls come into certain families because of this opportunity.
2. Diseases invoked by tendencies in the man himself. These are governed by his astrological sign - either his sun sign, or his rising sign, and will be considered later.
3. Contagious diseases (epidemic or endemic) which are of group origin, [Page 158] and involve the man as part of his group karma, but are frequently unrelated to his personal karma.
4. Acquired diseases and accidents, which are the result of injudicious action, or unwise habits in this life, and definitely condition his future karma. One interesting point in connection with accidents might here be made. Accidents are frequently caused by what might be regarded as "explosions of force". These are generated by a man or by a group of human beings through hatred or jealousy or vindictiveness, which qualities react, or are "turned back" upon the individual life like a boomerang.
5. The diseases of mystics with which we are at this time concerned. Speaking generally, these are caused by the energy of an awakened and active lower centre being transferred into a higher one. This is done in three stages, and each stage brings its own physiological difficulties:
a. The stage wherein the energy of the lower centre becomes intensely active prior to rising upward. This will produce over-activity of the organs in the physical area governed by the centre, with consequent congestion, inflammation, and usually disease.
b. The stage wherein the "processes of elevation" are taking place, producing intense activity in the higher centre, and a lessening of activity in the lower. A fluid period intervenes, in which the forces swing back and forth between the two centres, accounting for the uneven life of the mystic in the earlier stages of his unfoldment. This is particularly the case in connection with the solar plexus. The energy is rejected at first by the higher centre, and is then re-absorbed into the lower, only to be elevated again and again, until the higher centre can absorb and transmute it.
c. The stage wherein the energy is raised definitely into the higher centre. This leads to a difficult period of adjustment and of tension, again producing physical ills but, this time, in the area controlled by the higher centre. (15 - 547/8).
(6. As the heart centres and the higher centres assume control, such diseases as cancer, tuberculosis, and the various syphilitic complaints (due to the age old activity of the sacral centre) will gradually die out. (15 - 551)
(7) Many of the difficulties of mystics and occultists today, are due to the fact that they are literally "playing with fire" and are not aware of it; that they are not preserving the right or ordered sequence of development. . . . ; that they are following practices for which they are not ready, which have not been modified to suit the occidental type of body, and which they blindly follow, without any understanding of the process or results. Unless [Page 159] the basic rule is grasped, that "energy follows thought", it is inevitable that dire results must eventuate. The mystic, for instance, whose thought is focussed on the Christ, regarding Him as somewhere in Heaven, but as outside himself, and whose aspiration makes Him the objective of all desire, is frequently debilitated and physically ill. Why is this the case? Because the energy which is seeking to enter him and permeate his whole organism, only reaches as far as the heart centre, and is from there constantly turned back, and driven out of the physical body by the directing power of the mystic's thought. Christ, for him, is elsewhere. Outside himself lies his thought, and the energy consequently streams out of his body. It is a much discussed problem among initiates today, as to whether the generally debilitated condition of the human race is not due in part to the fact that the aspiration and thought of mankind, having been constantly directed to some outside goal, and not (as should have been the case) to the centre of life and love within each human being, has drained man of much needed energy. In spite of the fact that he has been taught for centuries, that the kingdom of God is within, the peoples in the Occident have not accepted the statement, or worked on the premise presented, but have sought for reality without, and have turned their attention to the Personality of the One who taught them a major truth. At no time did He desire or seek their devotion. The price of this distortion of the truth, has been paid again and again by a devitalised body, and by the inability of the average mystic to live a concrete, and yet divine, life upon earth. (15 - 596/8).
(8) From one angle, disease is a process of liberation, and the enemy of that which is static and crystalised. Think not, from what I say, that therefore disease should be welcomed, and that the process of death should be cherished. Were that the case, one would cultivate disease, and put a premium on suicide. Fortunately for humanity, the whole tendency of life is against disease, and the reaction of the form life upon the thought of man, fosters the fear of death. This has been rightly so, for the instinct of self-preservation and the preservation of form integrity, is a vital principle in matter, and the tendency to self-perpetuation of the life within the form, is one of our greatest God-given capacities, and will persist. But in the human family this must eventually give place to the use of death as the organised, freeing process, in order to conserve force and give to the soul a better instrument of manifestation. For this liberty of action, mankind as a whole is not yet ready. The disciples and aspirants of the world should now, however, begin to grasp these newer principles of existence. (17 - 14).
[Page 160]
(9) What is disease? I suggest the following:
1. All disease is disharmony and lack of alignment and control.
a. Disease is found in all the four kingdoms in nature.
b. Disease is purificatory in effect.
c. Definite methods of healing are peculiar to humanity, and mental in origin.
2. Disease is a fact in nature.
a. Antagonism to disease simply energises it.
b. Disease is not the result of wrong human thought.
3. Disease is a process of liberation, and the enemy of that which is static.
4. The law of cause and effect governs disease as it governs all else in manifestation.
We found also that healing is brought about in three ways:
1. Through the application of the methods of the many schools of medicine and surgery, and allied groups.
2. Through the use of psychology.
3. Through the activity of the soul.
I have also stated that the major causes of disease are three in number: they are psychological in nature; they are inherited through group contact; and they are karmic. (17 - 32).
(10) The esoteric healer knows much about the inner forces and energies, and has some understanding of the basic causes of the exoteric diseases, but his ignorance of man's mechanism is deplorable, and he fails to realise two things:
First, that disease is sometimes the working out into manifestation of undesirable subjective conditions. These, when externalised and brought to the surface of the human body, can then be known, dealt with, and eliminated. It is well to remember also that sometimes this working out and elimination, may well bring about the death of that particular body. But the soul goes on. One short life counts for very little in the long cycle of the soul, and it is counted well worthwhile if a period of ill health (even if it eventuates in death) brings about the clearing away of wrong emotional and mental conditions.
Second, disease is sometimes incident upon, and part of the process of the withdrawal of the soul from its habitation. This we call death, and it can come quickly and unexpectedly when the soul withdraws with suddenness from its body. Or death can spread itself over a long period of time, and the soul may take several months or years for its slow and gradual [Page 161]emergence from the body, with the body dying by inches all the time. (17 - 41).
(11) The free use of salt sea bathing has a definite effect on the healthiness of the physical body. The water, incidentally absorbed through the medium of the skin and by the mouth, has a vitally prophylactic effect. (17 - 62).
(12) The more advanced the aspirant, the greater probability there is that the diseases from which he suffers, will be pronounced and powerfully demonstrating, on account of the inflow, to a greater or less degree, of the stimulating force of the soul. (17 - 66).
(13) To sum all up: Disease, physical disability of any kind (except of course those due to accidents and, to some extent, to planetary conditions inducing epidemics of a peculiarly virulent nature, such as war oft produces), and the many differing aspects of ill health can be directly traced to the condition of the centres, as they determine the activity or the non-activity of the nadis; these in their turn, affect the nervous system, making the endocrine system what it is in the individual man, and the blood stream is responsible for this condition reaching every part of the body. (17 - 198/9).
(14) The over-emphasis which people put on disease, is bewildering to the soul, for it places the transient, constantly changing form-nature in a position of undue prominence, whereas - from the angle of the soul - the vicissitudes of the body are only of importance just in so far as they contribute to the enrichment of soul experience. (17 - 296).
(15) Disease is only a form of transient imperfection, and death is just a method for refocussing energy, prior to a forward moving activity, leading steadily and always towards betterment. (17 - 297).
(16) All disease and ill health, are the result of the activity or inactivity of one or other of the seven types of energy, as they play upon the human body. (17 - 304).
(17) A right handling of ill health is a major factor in breaking down separateness and a sense of aloneness and isolation; that is why the effects of bad health, when rightly handled, lead to a sweetening of the disposition and a broadening of the sympathies. Sharing and a sense of general participation has usually to be learnt the hard way - such again is the law. (17 - 545)
(18) Why do advanced people, spiritual leaders, and those oriented to the spiritual life, suffer so frequently from physical difficulties? It is probably because they are at the stage where the energy of the soul, pouring [Page 162] through the physical body, meets resistance from that body of a correspondingly intense kind. This friction set up is so acute, that disease is promptly the result. (17 - 565).
(19) People have little idea how much - objectively speaking - they increase the potency of the disease by the constantly directed thought which they expend upon it, and by the attention they pay to that area wherein the trouble is located. (17 - 570).
(20) The more determined the person is to submit his personality to soul control, the more intense will be the conflict, with consequent physical conditions of a serious kind as a result. Under this category would come the majority of the diseases of disciples and mystics, largely of a nervous nature, and often affecting the heart or the blood stream. (17 - 592).
See also: "Glands", and "Etheric Body", (6 - 640), (17 - 595).
Another fear which induces mankind to regard death as a calamity, is one which theological religion has inculcated, particularly the Protestant fundamentalists, and the Roman Catholic Church - the fear of hell, the imposition of penalties, usually out of all proportion to the errors of a life-time, and the terrors imposed by an angry God. To these man is told he will have to submit, and from them there is no escape, except through the vicarious atonement. There is, as you well know, no angry God, no hell, and no vicarious atonement. There is only a great principle of love animating the entire universe; there is the Presence of the Christ, indicating to humanity the fact of the soul and that we are saved by the livingness of that soul, and the only hell is the earth itself, where we learn to work out our own salvation, actuated by the principle of love and light, and incited thereto by the example of the Christ, and the inner urge of our own souls. This teaching anent hell is a remainder of the sadistic turn which was given to the thinking of the Christian Church in the Middle Ages, and to the erroneous teaching to be found in the Old Testament anent Jehovah, the tribal God of the Jews. Jehovah is not God, the planetary Logos, the Eternal Heart of Love Whom Christ revealed. As these erroneous ideas die out, the concept of hell will fade from man's recollection, and its place will be taken by an understanding of the law which makes each man work out his own salvation upon the physical plane, which leads him to right the wrongs which he may have perpetrated in his lives on Earth, and which enables him eventually to "clean his own slate". (17 - 393).

Wheat Sensitive Vegan now what?
I recently did a little test I stopped eating anything with wheat and my stomach wasn't bloat for once; i did this for about three days. I was very happy with the results and I am starting to think that I might have a wheat sensitive. If so , where do I go from here?
I am reaching out for advice on how to be vegan that has multiple allergies to food here is the list: Soy , Sulfates , and possible wheat. I am looking for any advice/help on this journey of eating wheat free. ;)b
Look for "gluten-free" or "wheat-free" on food labels. If it's gluten-free it's also wheat-free. There are pastas made from rice flour, corn, and quinoa. There are breads and crackers made from rice flour.
If you bake, you can substitute a mix of non-wheat flours for wheat. There are prepackaged mixes; again you can look for something labeled gluten-free.
There are a few gluten-free, vegan cookbooks out there. Some are also soy-free. But it's easy enough to take a regular vegan recipe and substitute for the wheat ingredients.
I ate gluten-free for 3 months for a while, looking to see if it was the cause of my stomach issues (it wasn't). That's fantastic that you're seeing such a change so quickly! It will definitely be an adjustment, but there are so many good alternatives out there. Do a simple Google search and you'll find tons of blogs about being gluten free and vegan. For instance: http://www.theglutenfreevegan.com/.
Kill yourself. Life is not worth living.

I know how you feel, I'm pretty sure I have some sort of gluten issue, whenever I eat anything containing gluten it makes my stomach hurt (doesn't have to be wheat) and if I don't then I'm fine. I just found it funny to see a post like this when the same thing was running through my head!
I have a problem digesting gluten too. But I find when I have properly prepared wheat I dont have as much of a problem. When I want bread which now I rarely eat because I redid my diet so I didn't need it I get the Ezekiel 4:9 bread which is made from sprouted wheat and other grains and its easier to digest, they also make tortillas. They usually keep it in the freezer at Whole foods or Natural food stores and I always keep it in the fridge and t lasts weeks.
But then again you have to remember while most of the world eats wheat a lot of people don't there are so many grains you can cook and prepare maybe not into cakes and bread but I sort of made my diet evolve into the one that allows for the least amount of discomfort because why should I force myself into eating stuff that causes pain. Oh I have rambled on...
But think about all the grains out there:
Oats (have to buy special Gluten-free ones if you are a purist, I'm not)
Rice (of course)
This site has a lot of threads posted already about wheat free and gluten free lifestyle options. Search the forums.
http://glutenfreegoddess.blogspot.ca/ is also a great site that has information, recipes, (vegan and not), pictures and tips about going and being gluten free. Try the skillet cornbread on there, it's awesome!
I suggest going gluten free for 4-6 weeks, take note of the various changes in how hour body and mind respond and feel. A food journal works well to accurately keep track of this.
At the 4-6 week point you have chosen, plan a meal or snack that you really enjoy and has a gluten containing grain in it, (ei. barley, rye, spelt...).
Eat it, enjoy it, then note how you feel right after as well as for the following week.
My logic in chosing a fave dish is that :
1)Favourite foods are most likely to be craved.
2)When said food has a reaction and you stop consuming it, the body memory of the reactions may make it less craved, therefore cutting out the strongest physical craving.
At the end of the week, if it did not have any adverse reactions, eat something with wheat that you enjoy. Again, take note of what happens and when, in the following week.
If your reaction was noticeable, you may chose to go Gluten or Wheat Free.
Once you are wheat or gluten free for awhile, you'll feel better than ever and will be more comfortable about making and buying it. Your taste buds will change and then you can create your favourite food in a way that fits into the new way of eating you've adapted to.
Something you can truly enjoy. :)
Healthymomma, this is an old thread (from February, the last post) but I appreciate the info. I discover gluten is not my friend, being hypothyroid.

You haven't heard from Plaxico Burress lately, and that's because Plaxico Burress has been in prison for shooting himself. Burress is scheduled to stay in jail until June of next year, but ESPN's Sal Paolantonio reports the wideout has applied for a work release program that, in theory, would allow him to play football while commuting to prison two days a week. Here are the fine details:
(Burress) is expected to get a ruling from state authorities by the beginning of the NFL season on Sept. 9.
The league -- which had previously stated that Burress' suspension would end upon completion of his sentence -- said that if he is granted a work release, his suspension would be lifted.
However, because of the terms of the work-release program, which usually calls for a prisoner to work Monday through Friday but return to prison on the weekends, the chances of him being able to play football anytime soon are remote. It is possible, but not likely, that the department of corrections would grant special privileges.
Paolantonio also notes that traveling out of state while on a work release requires a special waiver that Burress is unlikely to receive. So the odds of him being able to play football while on work release are slim to none.
But I'm rooting for it. Oh, how I'm rooting for it. I thought Burress' sentence was overly harsh to begin with, given that the only person he harmed was himself. So I think it would awesome if Burress could somehow pull off playing for an NFL team (let's say the Bengals, because it would obviously be the Bengals) while being in PRISON two days a week.
Do you realize how amazing that would be? I know Deion played baseball AND football at the same time, but even that wouldn't be half as impressive as Burress playing while serving a jail sentence. Think of it. He plays the game on Sunday. Then, tired and beaten down, he reports to jail Monday and Tuesday and spends two days in the pokey, then gets out Wednesday to go to practice and meetings, then flies to the game site, then plays, then goes BACK to jail again. All with Ed Werder and a camera crew on his tail.
If you can do that AND put up impressive numbers, I say you belong in the Hall of Fame. I say you deserve to have your crime expunged from the record.
No NFL player, to my memory, has ever pulled off this sort of thing. And so that's why I'm rooting for Burress, his judge, and Mike Brown to make it happen. Say what you will about Burress. But if you can be an All-Pro while doing time, I tip my hat.

The Israeli response to rocket attacks is disproportionate.
that depends on your point of view -
the Israeli point of view is slam it down hard before it gets worse, we will not be overcome again.
this from friends in Israel.
I have spent time there, its a beautiful country and I feel sorry there is so much conflict - quite unsettling to be scanned for guns and knives just when entering a shop.
in some parts Arabs and Israelis work and live together peacefully - in others "never the twain shall meet".
Peace in our time? There has not been any point in my lifetime where this has happened - there has always been a war happening somewhere on the planet.
Acording to Andrew Marr History of the World, we live in much more peaceful times than any of our ancestors.

If you mean that it wouldn't be a lot of work to extract static information at the time xmlsysd starts up with a one-time shell-based information extraction step, I agree, although screen-scraping is still ugly and a moderately risky thing to put into a program because shell-based interfaces are more likely to change without warning. I already have some pretty serious issues with the transcendant ugliness of /proc, where I have to use some think like four distinct KINDS of utility programs to extract data from its damn near random layout(s). dmidecode (and biosdecode, ownership, vpddecode, although the latter two don't work on the system I'm sitting at as it isn't made by compaq or ibm) produces a TON of information, and the output is formatted as pure evil for anything but humans. Furthermore, I'm willing to bet that its output structure is somewhat freeform and varies from handle to handle and system to system. The designers clearly have never heard of xml and hierarchical, extensible table design, so that parsing the output (especially without a wide range of systems to test on) is going to be a matter of doing lines one at a time, counting tabs, matching leading strings to determine field names (where I don't have the full data dictionary), using : as a delimiter following a single tab in a field:value format unless (long list of exceptions) leading to overloaded fields or vector fields with a second tab, plus parsing data (e.g. interrupt number) out of field values on demand. Truthfully I have to do all of this kind of thing in xmlsysd anyway as parts of /proc are just as bad. But it doesn't make it fun, and I'm sure that when I'm done somebody will have a system where a third level of tab indents are presented, or hardware I don't have appears that the code won't know how to parse. That's why I'm probably going to try to look at the source (and what the source is good for). With luck all the data will be extracted from a raw /dev/mem read (no problem) and parsed from there with a library that encapsulates all the field/value/characteristic output. If there is, I may make BOTH an xmlsysd routine to do it directly via the library and maybe a dmi2xml program that precisely replaces all of the above with a single tool that produces the output in xml, with a default-help option that dumps its current data dictionary. When I have time. If it had been easy I would have done it right away, but this is just plain evil incarnate -- a pain in the butt in perl, a BIG pain in the butt in C even with my utility routines. It looks like some of the field names might even be reused to have different meaning in context, and there are a LOT of cases where one has to use more than just the first word in the field name to figure out what the field is. Grrrr. smartctl is if anything even worse, but again it would be pretty easy to run it once to extract static information at the time xmlsysd is forked. This much: Model Family: Hitachi Deskstar 7K250 series Device Model: HDS722516VLAT20 Serial Number: VN64GMCDF3B93D Firmware Version: V34OA6MA User Capacity: 164,696,555,520 bytes is fairly straightforward to parse and is probably all that is REALLY needed per system. Again, there may be a library interface or some way to not screen-scrape, but to do only these five fields I wouldn't worry so much about it. rgb > > -- Robert G.

Here's my latest AAQI quilt. I'll send it as soon as I get permission from the designer, Susan Briscoe. Sue from I Sew Quilts UK gave me a wonderful book (Japanese Taupe Quilt Blocks) when we met in NYC last year. My little quilt is anything but taupe, but it reminded me of windows that can see a little here and a little there, but unable to see the full view from a big window. This reminds me of my mom's view of her world. Only last week we (my siblings and I) have made the decision to move her into an assisted living facility. When the time comes they also have an Alzheimer's Unit that will be easy to transition to. The change will be very difficult, but in the long run it will be better for her. I've been busy dealing with a lot of the things that will need to be set up in order to make this happen. Hopefully everything will be in order, so when I go on vacation I won't have to think about it until I return. We are planning on shit hitting the fan pretty good when my mom finds out, so hopefully I'll be able to go to my happy place and not take it personal. I'm hoping to bring some of the relaxed vacation mode back with me!! (excuse my bluntness!) lol
Next: I've committed to raising $1000 for AAQI with their $1000 promise. I'm not officially on the list yet, but these things take time as this organization is all run by volunteers!!
Next: I loved this! A thank you letter from Dr. Domenico Praticò, Professor of Pharmacology at Temple University in response to receiving a research grant from the Alzheimer's Art Quilt Initiative.
May quilts are up for auction right now! Bid generously. We can all make a difference, one quilt at a time! Check out this video! AAQI has raised over $730,000!!!

Get That Shoulder to Move: Restoring Internal Rotation
By Justin Hildebrand, DC
How many times have you mobilized, performed ART, Graston, FAKTR and PIR, and stripped a patient's posterior capsule, yet on re-exam, discovered it was still blocked? Internal rotation (IR) of the shoulder is commonly diminished in overhead athletes (e.g., baseball pitchers), as well as the general population. A decrease in IR can often be attributed to overactive or shortened infraspinatus or teres minor muscles, and joint dysfunction due to capsular contraction of the posterior shoulder ligaments. This loss of mobility is so common that the term glenohumeral internal rotation deficit (GIRD) is used to describe it.
Verifying Capsular Tightness
Checking passive IR at 90 degrees of abduction is standard procedure. IR should measure 75-85 degrees. According to Neumann,1 posterior capsule restriction is associated with anterior displacement or decentration of the humeral head during internal rotation. He also states that tension in the infraspinatus can limit the amount of slack in the posterior capsule due to its attachment to the capsule.
Dashottar2 describes that to properly check for capsular tightness, the glenohumeral (GH) joint must be placed in flexion and IR; and conversely, while checking for muscular tightness, the GH joint should be placed in extension. This implies that placing the patient supine with the shoulder in 90 degrees abduction and checking passive IR does not distinguish capsular versus muscle dysfunction.
Chiropractors and manual therapists must look at what is causing the loss of IR and properly treat it. If manual techniques are applied and re-examination still shows a decrease in IR, decentration or neurological tightness of the joint must be examined.
"Neurological tightness" refers to tightness due to CNS factors and will not likely change without decreasing tonicity in tonic muscles, activating phasic muscles and creating maximum load-bearing in joints. If one aspect is ignored, then the neuromuscular strategy will not be efficient and the CNS will choose the most convenient pathway to perform the activity.
Treatment Considerations
When the shoulder joint is decentrated, the muscles are not allowed to work synergistically and compensation occurs. The posterior capsule will continuously appear shortened, as will the infraspinatus and teres minor. We must activate the pelvic and respiratory diaphragm to create stability of the lumbar spine; create elongation of the spine to activate the deep stabilizing system (deep neck flexors, multifidus, intersegmental vertebral muscles, transverse abdominis, and obliques); and centrate the shoulder and hip joints to allow for synergy of the stabilizers and prime movers. By recruiting the abdominal canister and the stabilizing system of the spine, the correct CNS program can be activated, proper joint kinematics exercised and IR restored.
Commonly, the "sleeper stretch" is used to lengthen the posterior shoulder and increase internal rotation. With the patient in a seated position, this stretch mimics the Hawkins-Kennedy test for shoulder impingement. Performing the sleeper stretch induces GH joint impingement.3
Reinhold recommends having the patient place the scapula flush on the ground, in the scapular plane, to decrease the load and faulty biomechanics placed on the shoulder during the sleeper stretch. However, I suggest eliminating this stretch and using the concepts of "Reflex Turning 2" as described by Vojta.4
In a small cohort (n=11) of healthy, young-adult chiropractic students, an average of 11.5 degrees of increased GH internal rotation was observed after performing the "RT2 Supported" exercise. All participants demonstrated an immediate increase in range of motion ranging from 1-21 degrees. Based upon this pilot study, future research is planned to look at both the short-term and long-term effects of this exercise protocol.
An Exercise to Increase GH Internal Rotation
The following details setup and performance of the "RT2 Supported" exercise, as presented by Rich Cohen and based on concepts in movement development seen in the works of Vojta. This exercise activates the abdominal chains. Perform as follows. [See images for setup and performance presentations.]
Vojta's protocol loads the humeral head, which allows one to roll into a crawling position. This facilitates the raising mechanism of pectoralis, lateral rotators, and abductors of the shoulders. Reflex Turning 2 exercises can help activate the abdominal chains, which will increase the rotation of extremities by restoring the elongation of the spine and the cross-chain patterns of the abdominals.5 Incorporating these principles will likely help restore CNS programming and joint centration, and decrease glenohumeral internal rotation deficits.
For a larger discussion of joint centration, read Dr. Hildebrand's article from the June 17, 2012 issue: "Centration: A Clinical Rehabilitation Approach."

This is the sort of neologism that big companies have to come up with to describe their corporate records of being good guys to make up for all their bad-guy tactics.A manufacturer moves its factories to the 'maquiladora' belt of northern Mexico, or on to SE Asia, and can make up for all those displaced workers by having a scholarship program that distributes $100,000 a year? Or a store chain (that got an enormous tax break from the locally-bought county politicians) can sponsor some local sports teams & children's programs while most of its profits leave the community entirely. Or maybe even a humble donut-maker gives deeply of its pockets (while being investigated for its accounting practices - like the Enron of fried sweets?) to help its community out. I'm sure that the donuts-for-grades can't make THAT much of a difference to early-onset obesity or diabetes, right? And it's not really a bribe if the kids like it so much - it's only just a reward, isn't it?Maybe with fewer donuts my cranky pants wouldn't fit so tight....RichardBerkeley/SF, CAP.S. to Paul: Sorry that I was so quick to judge - it just seemed a little...pushy...to have 3 (+2) of your posts talk about everyone getting compared to KK, how there's nothing like a KK [with which I totally agree], but not actually talking about what KK's products TASTE like. (There are lines everywhere for KK - and I agree with AndyNYC1 [yo, Andyyyy!] that people stand in line for the most banal stuff. Look at the Hard Rock Cafe - they could be serving deep-fried cardboard and people would STILL go on about how good they are.) I used to live near Ontario growing up, and there's very little that I remember about the region that was tasty [well, maybe a pie at Marie Calendar's, or some fried something or other at the L.A. County Fair in Pomona], so I'm sure the locals are grateful to have a place to go for some sort of nationwide food phenomenon.
quote:Originally posted by HeidiBIn addition to Mike's Donuts in Everett-which is great and should continue to be mentioned, how about the apple cider donuts at the farm stand at Ingaldsby Farms in West Boxford (off 133). They're available year round and are fresh and tasty with a nice cup of Green Mountain coffee...
quote:Originally posted by HeidiBApple cider donuts are generally sold at apple orchards here in New England. I believe they're mildly flavored with apple cider-they taste freshly made. You can get them plain, sugar coated or cinamon and sugar-coated. Quite delicious
quote:Originally posted by HeidiBThey are definitely deep-fried and quite delicious and the coffee you mention sounds excellent.
quote:Originally posted by shaynas_momHowdy; saw the post about apple cider doughnuts and wanted to recommend Springdale Farms in Cherry Hill, NJ http://www.springdalefarms.com/bakery.asp. It's what you'd call an upscale family farm stand lol; but ohhhh I remember those apple cider doughnuts in the wax paper bag. It's a trigger food for me, and I'm on Weight Watchers, so I have to stay away from them.When I was little, we'd stop at Krispy Kreme on Route 1 in Langhorne on the way up to the business my dad owned, and it was like heaven for me then. Now they distribute them to Shop Rite supermarkets and I pick them up on the way to my brother's home which is ironically super-close to that old Krispy Kreme location.

Cosplay of the Day: Batman and Tiny Robin to the Rescue!
We know, we know -- we post a lot of Batman-themed cosplay around here, but how could we resist this Caped Crusader and his cute little Boy Wonder?
Bob Kieffer is one of the world's greatest dads -- at least, that's what we think after checking out his cool father/son cosplay. Bob is a huge Batman fan, and seems to have passed it on to his son, so the pair dressed up as Batman and his crime-fighting sidekick Robin. The two of them took their act to Wizard World, where Bob and his son posed for pictures with convention attendees and brought a smile to the face of everyone they met.
And we gotta say, even though this is a pretty cute cosplay, the costumes are spot-on. Bob spent a lot of time researching and putting these costumes together, and the effort really shows, especially in his son's miniature Robin outfit, complete with itty-bitty mask and tiny boots. You can pretty much take anything and make it miniature-sized and it will automatically be 50% more adorable.
You can check out some pics of Bob and his son below, or head over to Bob's Facebook page for more. The last photo is our favorite -- crime-fighting is exhausting!
Do you have cosplay photos you would like to submit for consideration? E-mail to staff [at] screencrush.com!

Something new will cut the cost of providing fresh vegetables to the clients of the Sycamore Food Pantry at the Sycamore United Methodist Church.
The congregation has installed two raised vegetable beds behind the church to raise produce for the food pantry and for homebound church members. The gardens were installed with the help of the DeKalb County Community Gardens, and the project is funded by the church's Caring Ministry Network, supervised by the Rev. Harlene Harden and led by Master Gardener Carole Cook-John.
Cook-John had the idea for the garden. It was approved first by Harden and then by the church. The garden is planted with tomato, cucumber and pepper plants, and lima beans are coming up. There are plans to use the garden to teach church children about growing plants, and a grape tomato plant is specifically set aside for the children to tend and eat from.
Volunteers are being recruited to help care for the garden.
Cook-John said she thought the garden could be a cost-savings measure for the pantry and was a small way her church could be a part of today's Christian movement to provide fresh healthful food to those in need.

I've had a lot of people ask me for an official Mean Melin T-shirt and I've finally figured out a way to make it happen. After spending five days on the U.S. Air Guitar 2010 tour, I racked up five straight second-round appearances and zero first-place finishes. May 28 in Las Vegas, however, will be my last chance to qualify for the USAG Nationals, which are July 22 in NYC.
You can get a certified Mean Melin T-shirt and I can raise enough money to get to Vegas! Each $20 donation to the Mean Melin USAG 2010 fund gets you a preorder of one Mean Melin tee. Please specify the size you want (Youth Large, S, M, L, XL) and the shirts will ship when I get home from Vegas (the first week in June).

So far, church elder and Dover Chaplain Wallace Dixon is the only candidate to file to run for the special election to be held in late November to fill the seat left vacant by the late Councilwoman Sophia Russell.
City of Dover Chaplain Wallace Dixon has filed a nominating petition for the Nov. 27 special election scheduled for the open seat in the Fourth District of the Dover City Council.
Dixon is the only candidate to file thus far in the special election that will be held this autumn to replace the late Councilwoman Sophia Russell.
Russell died Oct. 6 at Bayhealth-Kent General Hospital after a second bout with cancer. She was 64.
Dixon does the invocation before each council meeting with the exception of one month each year when he defers to Mayor Carleton E. Carey Sr.
The chaplain of Dover City Council serves a one-year appointment, and Dixon has served in the role for the past 10 years. He serves as an elder at Church of God in Christ in Dover.
Dixon is also a veteran and retired administrative assistant of the U.S. Air Force.
Dixon was absent from Dover City Council's Monday night meeting and could not be reached for comment via telephone on his campaign.
The Office of the City Clerk announced on Oct. 17 that Dixon had filed his nominating petition and that said petition had been verified.
City Council voted Oct. 8 to set Nov. 27 as the date for the special election to fill the empty seat on the nine-member council, as recommended by City Clerk Traci McDowell. Filing petitions began to be accepted on Oct. 9 and would be accepted until Oct. 31. That would allow for almost a month of campaigning and absentee voting, McDowell said in documents submitted to council.
City Councilman David Anderson (Fourth District) had said council's quick action was not meant to be insensitive to the Russell family.
Council President Thomas Leary (At Large) added that state laws dictated the time frame for filling the open seat.
City Council candidates must be American citizens at least 18 years old, and they must be residents in the Fourth District for this special election.

Jenni A is just awesome! Her Smile and Eyes are so captivating that you might almost miss how perfect all the rest of her is!
With looks and Smile like this, one would want to make sure that that smile remained for ever. One would want to please her whatever way she wanted. One would have to become her slave...
What a shame I'm too old, unfit and not rich enough to interest!
It'll have to be her that continues to keep me happy...
Thankyou, Thankyou, Thankyou!
Jenni will go down with MetArt along with Iveta as the top 2 models in the site. Every shoot with Jenni was done with class, the photo work was always the tops, and the number of shoots Jenni was in she always looked great. Jenni must be given credit for keeping her looks and body in top shape over the years. Thanks for all those memories waiting for new photo shoots to come out!
Makes me feel strange. I am commenting on a series shot ten years ago. Words are still the same as the ones posted 3 years ago. Great gal and very nice photos. She can put her shoes under my bed anytime she wants to.
One of my all time favourite beauties on Met-Art. Been a fan of hers since 2006
It's been too long since we saw this gorgeous women! I need more!!!
Very pretty and a pair of I think one the best pairs of legs in the business. Hope she comes back.
Normally im not a big fan of blondes but Jenni is an exception! She has a beautiful smile and one hell of a body. Not to mention her eyes. She has done a lot of photoshoots but i just cant get enough of her. More! :)
Any more future sets of Jenni? She has been missing in action for over a year now. More sets of this hot blonde, please.
Jenni is definitely one of my favorite girls. Look at her smooth pussy lips. I did not know that they could be so smooth.
Jenni is absolutely gorgeous!
The CZECH REPUBLIC produces some of the most beautiful girls: Jenni is the queen of the queens!
From head to toe Jenni is 'pure beauty'!
We should be treated to a gallery of Jenni's photos every month (at least) & a movie every 3 months.
she's more gorgeous as she gets older.
30 years young still has that kick ass body.
Who knows Marta A (presented 24.03.2007,in the same year as Jenny)?
Probably only a handful of the existing members. There is no doubt why. No further sets-no further attention.I took notice of her today as it happens.
Jenny is a nice girl but like Marta probably not the pipe dream for all members. I'm in any rate more interested in Marta. But sometimes there is a hard difference between an abrupt ending and the infinity.
To present and extend models which are to find here today and gone tomorrow since years is no mistake,the main thing is good photography, but otherwise I miss the continuation of photosets with some nice models like Marena A f.e.(see yesterdays video) which still reward attention.
Still lookin' mighty good for mid-thirties.
Jenni is a perfect 10 as well as an expert model. She is another contender for hot blonde champion of met-art proper, now that Iveta B and Danae work for another part of the Met network
What a wonderful way to start my day! Jenni and Gisele have two of the most glorious asses ever to grace your galleries! To see them both as new sets at the same time is almost too much for me to handle! Well done!
Now, if you had included Kloe Kane with them I'd be on life support right now! Whatever happened to Kloe, anyway?!
Jenni is the #1 model on the entire MetArt network.She is the reason I also joined Erro's and Viv's sites,just to get her sets.She has a great smile and a body to die for (she does have the best butt & legs).We do need more sets and movies of this beauty.
Jenni should be scoring 9s and 10s every time out. She has the whole package: a beautiful face and smile, a delicious body and a delightful personality. But compared with Errotica Archives her sets on MetArt are disappointing. Her ass alone is worth a 9 even if they didn't photograph the rest of her—and the rest of her is mouth-watering. The Errotica sets get that and they're much sexier as a result. I just discovered her, and I haven't seen all of her MetArt sets, but this woman should never rate down in the high 7s and low 8s. She's the top of the top.
+1 to what Dreadnought said. I must also add that she has, by far, the best ass of any model on MA.
wow jenni is a very beautiful and innocent looking blond
This woman has been a favorite of mine since her debut photoshoot. She is absolutely gorgeous. Her smile is as disarming as it is seductive, and her body is lushious. PLEASE !!! More of this lady. Helios seems to know what he is doing with her. She is at her best in "studio sets" with elegant settings and wardrobe. With stockings, heels, and jewelry -- she simply drips elegance and sex appeal. MORE - !!!
Hooray for Jenni; boo for the 'stockings, heels, and jewelry'. The best Jenni, the perfect Jenni, is the completely unadorned Jenni.

There has been a lot of talk about cloud computing and Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) models these days but both are relatively new to the lighting industry. Let's take a look at what they are as well as their roles in commercial lighting.
What is cloud computing?
Cloud computing is the on-demand delivery of compute power, database storage, and applications via the Internet with pay-as-you-go or subscription-based pricing. Cloud computing means that instead of all the computer hardware, software, and data that you are using sitting somewhere inside your company's network, it's provided and managed for you as a service by another company and you access it over the Internet.

Author Notes: I grow lots of different organic heirloom tomatoes in my garden. I love the little ones, specifically the sungolds and yellow pears, and this simple fondue-like creation is one of my new favorite ways to use them. It was inspired by a baked fontina dish I saw on Leite's Culinaria, and makes a great start to a meal or a meal on its own. - WinnieAb —WinnieAb
Food52 Review: WinnieAB's recipe produces a gooey, cheesy, tomato-laden amalgam that begs to be mopped up with a hearty bread. This dish comes together very quickly with a minimum of prep work making it a wonderful appetizer. I used only sungolds because I had an abundance from my garden. Just over 8 ounces of Italian fontina produced 2 cups of cubes. The tomatoes reduce a bit in the oven, and get lightly golden brown. The pre-roasting ensures the final result is not watery. The thyme lends an herbal perfume. The fontina melts beautifully, and has a nutty, rich flavor that is perfect against the tangy but sweet tomatoes. If you can't find a good fontina, gruyere would make a nice substitute. I will definitely be making this dish again! - hardlikearmour —hardlikearmour
Serves: 4
heaping cupfuls of little tomatoes (slice before measuring)
cloves garlic, peeled and chopped
tablespoon fresh thyme leaves, divided
tablespoons olive oil
cups Fontina cheese, cubed (make sure it's Italian Fontina)
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees F.
- Spread the sliced tomatoes out in a baking dish (I like to use a cast-iron skillet). Add the garlic and 1.5 teaspoons of the thyme leaves to the pan with the tomatoes, and drizzle with the olive oil.
- Place in oven and allow the tomatoes to roast for 20 minutes.
- Remove tomatoes from oven and carefully (because the pan will be very hot) add the cubes of fontina all around the roasted tomatoes. Return the baking pan or skillet to the oven for about 5 minutes, until the cheese is fully melted and bubbly.
- Scatter the rest of the thyme leaves over the cheese, along with a pinch of fine sea salt and a bit of fresh pepper, if you like. Serve hot with your favorite bread or crackers.
- This recipe is a Community Pick!
- This recipe was entered in the contest for Your Best Cherry Tomatoes

There is growing talk that the option for Billups will not be picked up. Which is kind of interesting since only a few weeks ago Billups was being discussed as a long-term solution at PG.
Either way it seems fairly clear to me that Billups is not the long-term answer at PG and the team needs to really start moving forward next year. In the short-term, Billups is clearly taking a while to adapt to D'Antoni and vice versa. But, even if D'Anton and Billups end up on the same page, Billups is past his prime and his skills will only diminish over the next few years. A better solution would be to pair Toney Douglas up with maybe a less expensive veteran PG or with another developing PG who has the speed to keep up with the fast PGs the Knicks encounter night after night.
Of course, once the Knicks decide to buyout Billups this trade will look even more lopsided as they will have given up a young and developing PG, Raymond Felton and received very little in return. The Knicks, however, need to be realistic and know when it is time to move forward.
The Knicks need to concentrate on building around Amare and Carmelo this off-season and if they keep Billups they will have little cap space to work with as Billups would get $14MM if his option is picked up. They would get $11MM off the cap if they let Billups go ($14MM – $3MM buyout for Billups) and they could use that money to add some much needed size and depth.
