St. Paschal Baylon, Confessor
St. Paschal Baylon, a lay-brother of the celebrated Franciscan Order, was born in Spain, in the kingdom of Valencia, on Pentecost Sunday, 1340. He had hardly reached boyhood, when he was already employed in watching the herd, as his parents were too poor to allow him to learn a trade. In this occupation, so looked down upon by the world, Paschal remained until he took the habit, but so innocent and pious was his life, that he never stained his soul with a mortal sin. He was such an enemy to cursing, lying, unchaste conversation, and licentious songs, that he would not endure these sins in others, but most earnestly endeavored to reform those addicted to them. He took the utmost care that the cattle entrusted to him should not damage the fields and meadows of others, and when he perceived that, withou his fault, such had been the case, he made good the damage out of his own wages, or by his labor. He never took the least thing out of the gardens or vineyards, as was so frequently done by others of his station. One day the chief herdsman requested Paschal to bring him some grapes from a neighboring garden that he might appease his thirst. The pious youth refused to do so on account of its being a sin, an offence done to God. When the chief herdsman pressed him with threats, he said fearlessly: "The grapes do not belong to us, and I will sooner let myself be torn to pieces than take the least of what belongs to another, as it is a sin," so great was the Saint's horror of sin.
On Candlemas-day he took the habit, and was so assiduous in the discharge of his new duties, that in a short time, from a holy herdsman, he became a holy religious. He exercised himself most zealously in all virtues, especially in fervent devotion towards God and the Blessed Virgin, in deep humility, abject poverty, continual self-immolation, and obediece in all things. His sustenance was generally only water and bread. Except mornings and evenings he partook of nothing not even in the greatest heat. His bed was the bare floor, and his pillow a stone or a piece of wood. He constantly wore a hair-shirt and daily scourged himself most severely. The greater part of the night he devoted to prayer, which he frequently performed with such devotion, that he remained whole hours upon his knees immovable, or was found in divine ecstasies.
During the day, when at work, he raised his heart continually to heaven by pious ejaculations, and never began the labors of the day without first imploring the divine assistance with at least a short prayer. But devoutly and attentively as he said his prayers, he was far from repeating them with scrupulous fear when his mind had been distracted. He used to say that the Almighty was displeased with such repetitions, and that they gave Satan an opportunity to disquiet and trouble the soul. He walked continually before the eyes of the Almighty, always remembering His presence; hence he was never seen sad or vexed, but always bright and cheerful. He would not listen to any praises, but blushed and immediately left if anything was said in his commendation. On the contrary, he showed great pleasure if others derided him or mocked him. His utmost care was to keep his conscience clear from all stains. He avoided the least wrong as scrupulously as others did great vices, especially anything against chastity. Before he was admitted into the Order he blushed with shame when one day a shepherd coming to him made an unchaste jest; but afterwards, indignant at his licentious speech, he assured him that if any one approached him with a wicked intention, he would give the wanton such a reception as would soon extinguish the flames of evil desire. When, having received the habit, he was door-keeper, and an impudent woman dared to kiss him when he opened the door for her. He, however, filled with holy anger, pushed her away, and shut the door in her face. On other occasions where he perceived the least danger of falling into sin, he manifested the same prudence.
Axious as Paschal was, however, to avoid all sin and to practice good works himself, he was also equally zealous to promote the practice of all virtues in others. Although he was not a priest, he labored without intermission for the spiritual welfare of his neighbor. Those whom he could influence he admonished with kind words to keep the commandments of God and the church, to receive frequently the holy Sacraments, to abstain from vices to which they were addicted, to love their neighbors, to be patient, and to exercise other Christian virtues. By such admonitions he deterred many from sin, and led them to penance and to a Christian life, as his words possessed a wonderful power to obtain that which he desired. A priest one day spoke long and most emphatically to a man who had suffered great wrong, urging him to forgive his offender. The angry man, however, not only refused to listen, but drove the priest away with the threat that if he did not leave, he would lay hands on him. Paschal, who had accompanied the priest, when the latter went away, turned to the man and said: "Well, my brother, forgive out of love to God the offence done to you." By these few words the Saint immediately obtained what the priest had not effected with his long exhortations. The injured man answered unhesitatingly "Yes! out of love to God I will forgive." In like manner he persuaded a hardened sinner to do penance, and strengthened a woman, who looked with undue fear upon her approaching death, to bear patiently the will of the Almighty. He prayed with particular zeal for all those who preached; that God would give their words power to convince and to convert their hearers. Experience showed that his prayer was graciously accepted by the Almighty.
What we have related above placed the holy man very high in the esteem not only of the brethren of his Order, but also in that of all others. He became still more celebrated by those extraordinary graces and gifts that were graciously conferred on him by our Lord. These were, first, a wonderful comprehension of the most profound mysteries of faith, which he was able to explain so clearly that even learned men were astonished, as it was well known that Paschal had never studied. Secondly: an unusual knowledge of the hearts of those with whom he came in contact: he was therefore often successful when he admonished others to confess secret sins, and to reform their conduct. Thirdly: the gift of prophecy; hence he foretold to several sick persons that their health would soon be restored, while to others he revealed that the hour of their death was near at hand. Besides this, God worked many miracles through him, especially to the comfort of the poor, whom he always endeavored to aid as much as he could. This faithful servant of the Almighty used to say: "Man ought to have towards God the heart of an obedient child; towards his neighbor the feelings of a tender mother; but towards himself he ought to act as an inflexible judge." As he constantly observed the second point in regard to the poor, so also he kept the first and third towards God and himself. At all times he endeavored to obey God in everything and to be austere towards himself.
When, in the 52d year of his age, Paschal became sick, he immediately prepared himself for his end, as the hour of his death had been told him by divine revelation. When his physician announced to him that his death was near, he gave him thanks for so joyous a message, adding that he could not have brought him more welcome tidings. On Ascension-day he asked several times if the High Mass had already commenced, and when they answered, "Yes!" he took the "crucifix and rosary and pressing them to his heart, his soul went to heaven at the precise moment when the priest, after the consecration, raised the Host. At the same hour some pious persons who lived far of saw the Saint like a second Elias, carried in a chariot of fire towards heaven.
For three days the holy remains were laid out in the church, in order to give the masses of people, who desired to see them and pay them due honors, an opportunity to do so. On the second day it was observed that the body thus exposed, opened its eyes and kept them fixed on the sacred Host during the elevation. The same happened when the chalice was raised. Those who had known the Saint in his life-time believed that God had wrought this miracle to manifest how pleasing had been to Him the devotion that St. Paschal had always shown towards the most blessed sacrament. When, eight months after his death, the body of the Saint was exhumed, it was found in a perfect state of preservation, although it had been covered over with unslaked lime. In the same condition it was found many years later. His tomb became celebrated on account of the many miracles which were wrought there.
Practical Considerations
Towards God we ought to have the heart of an obedient child; towards our neighbor the feelings of a tender mother, towards ourselves we ought to act like a severe judge. This was the doctrine of St. Paschal by which he regulated his life and attained to great holiness. Do you also regulate your life by it? Ah! only too many show in their deeds that they follow quite different rules. They are disobedient to God; transgress His laws without fear and almost numberless times. They respect neither His admonitions nor His Menaces. Towards their neighbor they are hard and pitiless, and even if able to help him, they refrain so, but on the contrary often oppress and persecute him. Towards themselves, however, they are very lenient, explain every thing to their own advantage, and seek to gratify their love of ease and comfort in all things. They neither restrain themselves nor punish themselves for misdeeds by penance. They seek only after what the flesh and sensuality desire, and detest every thing that has a shadow of self-denial. But who of all such people will ever attain virtue? Who will arrive at holiness? Who will enter heaven? Read the history of all the Saints; you will not find one of this description among them.
On the contrary, you will find that all Saints, as soon as they began to serve God, and occupy themselves seriously with their salvation, regulated their lives after the same doctrin that St. Paschal followed. What are you determined to do henceforth? Paschal would not bring any grapes out of a strange garden to his master, because he thought it a sin, although his master had commanded him to do it. In this the Saint acted rightly, for if any man commands something which is against God or is a sin, we must obey God rather than man, whoever he may be, as the Almighty is an inexpressibly greater Lord than any man, were he even master of the whole world, as I have already said somewhere else. To take a few grapes would only have been a venial sin, but the Saint would rather have been torn in pieces than commit even a venial sin, as he knew that it would offend the Most High. He knew, also, that we begin with small sins, and from these gradually fall into greater ones. The greatest thieves begin by taking trifles, and thus step by step, go on the road that leads them to their ruin. Judas, the traitor, who by unjust ways wished to amass money, did not commence by betraying and selling Christ, but by small thefts. But his avarice gradually led him so far, that, to increase his money, he did not scruple to betray the Saviour. In the same manner all other vices begin. Hence, Satan, when he desires the ruin of a pious man, does, not plunge him at once into vice, but tempts him first to small venial sins. If once he brings him so far that he no longer shrinks from venial sin, his falling; into mortal sin will not be far distant. Every one should beware of this deceit of Satan, and follow the admonition of St. Ephrem, who says: "I exhort and entreat you, my brethren, that you not only avoid great sin and vices, but also those which seem small, and are generally not much dreaded until the day comes when we have to give an account of them. The Evil One endeavours to ruin us through them. Shun carefully the nets and temptations of Satan, that you may one day partake, with Christ, of the eternal glories of heaven."

About 1,500 residents of Penticton, including Mayor David Perry and Councillor Dan Ashton, have signed a petition calling on the Liquor Distribution Branch (LDB) to scrap plans to close the Martin Street liquor store.
"We're delighted to have the support of Mayor Perry and Councillor Ashton," said BCGEU Local 505 Chair Karl Wolfe.
"The residents of Penticton have made it clear that they want the LDB to keep the Martin Street store open," said Wolfe. "At the same time we have to think about the customer traffic generated for all the other stores in the mall where the liquor store is located. These businesses will suffer dramatically with closure of the LDB store."
"The LDB's work to create a "signature store" by enlarging an existing store is welcome, but it falls short of what was expected. Just as a matter of customer service, it's clear Penticton should have at least two public liquor stores. The Martin Street store did $5 million in business last year. It makes a significant contribution to the provincial treasury to help pay for vital public services," said Wolfe.
A copy of the petition was presented to MLA Bill Barisoff (Penticton-Okanagan Valley) on Friday, March 11. Barisoff said he would take the petition to the minister responsible for the LDB, Solicitor General Rich Coleman.
"In Kamloops, residents pressured local MLAs and the government reversed the LDB's plans to close two stores in that community," said Wolfe. "They should make the same decision here."

Milford HoJos, Friendly's to be demolished; Fairfield Inn, retail to take their place
The Howard Johnson Lodge and Friendly's restaurant at 1040 and 1052 Boston Post Road will be demolished, and a Fairfield Inn, a Floor and Decor store and a small retail store will take their place.
The Planning and Zoning Board voted unanimously at its Jan. 2 meeting to approve two applications from Turnpike Lodge LLC and Connecticut Foods Inc. for work in the Interchange Commerical District.
Philip C. Craft of Easton is president of both companies.
One approval narrows from 50 to 40 feet the landscape buffer between the property and the adjacent Forest Park condominiums on a hill to the rear. The other vote approved the special permit and site plan which included merging the two properties into one 8.25-acre parcel.
The board approved the project with two conditions: relocation of a 13-foot by 9-foot building that houses utilities, currently in the buffer zone; the second calls for using exterior materials for the hotel that meet the board's architectural standards. The project garnered no public comment.
Architect Patrick Rose said the new hotel will have 108 rooms on four floors with 26 suites and 82 standard hotel rooms. Amenities will be located on the first floor including a breakfast room, a fitness center and an indoor pool.
Rose said the roof would include cellular phone antennas screened behind panels with an equipment room for the antennas in the hotel basement.
There will be 279 parking spaces for the site. Rose said there is a 20 to 30 foot difference in grade between the commercial property and the adjacent residential property.
Rose said the 5,000-square-foot retail building could house up to four tenants. He did not name any potential tenants.
Carol Secondino, regional director for the Waterford Hotel Group, which will own and operate the Fairfield Inn, said
Waterford operates two existing Marriott properties in Milford, the Residence Inn and Spring Hill Suites on Rowe Avenue. The company also operates a Courtyard by Marriott in Orange.
Julie Starzynski, construction design and project manager for Floor and Décor, said the company is "looking to break into the northeast." Starzynski said the company's nearest store is Farmingdale, N.Y., and its only New England store is in Avon, Mass. The Milford store will be about 75,000 square feet.
Starzynski said the company recently opened its 100th store, which is in California. According to its website, the Atlanta-based company started in 2000, and sells hard surface flooring materials, including tile, wood, stone and related tools and flooring accessories. She said contractors represent about 40 to 60 percent of its business.
David Bjorklund, civil engineer for the project, said a loop road around the property would lead to a loading dock for Floor and Décor that will be screened from the residential area.
The 279-car parking lot will include amenities, including charging stations and bike racks.
Matthew Popp, landscape architect, said there would be a 30- to 40-foot wide landscape buffer between the hotel and the retail uses. Popp said the project has 63 shade trees where 56 are required, along with 18 heritage birch trees, which he termed "borderline shade trees," 34 flowering trees, and 25 evergreen trees, including Norway spruce trees, and 35 red cedar trees along the back of the property.
Traffic engineer David Sullivan said the project would add 130 new trips during the peak weekday afternoon hour and 200 trips during the Saturday peak hour.
The Floor and Décor store will be at the rear of the property near Forest Park, while the Fairfield Inn would be near the adjacent Hooter's restaurant; the retail building would be located adjacent to the Olympia Diner property.

Describe the religious situation there.
EVANGELISTIC CENTER: Sylvain Romain, president of the Albanian Mission when this photo was taken, assists university students with a research project at the Adventist-owned Evangelistic Center in downtown Tirana.Seventy percent of Albanians are Muslim; most of the rest are Greek Orthodox or Roman Catholic. Yet most people have no connection with the religion of their ancestors. Two generations without God have resulted in their having no religion to teach to their children. Without religious books and church buildings, the values of society were based on superstition and old customs such as blood feuds or forced marriages.

The Morgan County High School (MCHS) Mat Dogs topped the 15-school pile at the 1-AAA Region traditional tournament this past weekend at the MCHS gym.
In addition to earning the top spot in the region, 10 individual Morgan County wresters finished in the top four spots, progressing on to the AAA Eastern Sectionals, which will also take place at the MCHS gym this Saturday, Feb. 8, beginning at 10 a.m. Nathan Lundy (106 lb.), Jody McAlister (132 lb.), and Dmonta Wright (152. lb) all fought to the championship position in their weight classes, despite tough competition from Appling and Pierce County wrestlers.
Lundy's 3-0 record at the 1-AAA tournament began with his first opponent's forfeiture, but Lundy won his final two matches by pinning his Dodge and Appling County counterparts.
McAlister's victories were harder to achieve; after earning a 19-3 technical fall in the first round, he also picked up 11-1 major decision to make it into the championship bought.
Facing tough competition from Pierce County in the final round, McAlister held onto a lead to earn a win by a 10-7 decision and the championship.
Wright's championship came only after four consecutive victories: three falls and a 17-5 major decision. Morgan County's Jacob McAlister (126 lb.), Jeremy Worth (170 lb.), and Zack Jenkins (285 lb.) each came out as runners-up in their brackets after falling in the final rounds.
Jacob McAlister and Worth each went 2-1 at the tournament with two victories by fall, while Jenkins had to earn three wins before making it to the championship match.
The Mat Dogs also had three wrestlers to accomplish a third-place finish at the tournament by going 4-1 overall: Antonio Robinson (138 lb.), Luke Mitchell (145 lb.), and Colin Efird (182 lb.).
Wyatt Martin finished third in the 160-pound weight class after earning a 3-1 record. Lundy, Jody McAlister, Wright, Jacob McAlister, Worth, Jenkins, Robinson, Mitchell, Efird, and Martin all earned the chance to compete in the AAA Eastern Sectionals this Saturday by finishing in the top-four spots of their weight class. Sean McElligott (120 lb.) and John Grubbs (195 lb.) narrowly missed the top four with 3-2 and 4-2 records, respectively.
"I'm very proud of how our guys responded after a tough semi-final round that saw us drop four nail-biters in a row," said MCHS Head Wrestling Coach John Robbins about the wrestlers who were able to fight back in the consolation brackets to place in their brackets. "In years past, the semi-finals have been where we would pull away from the rest of the field. At the conclusion of the semis this year, both Appling and Pierce were within five points of us making it anyone's tournament to win. The effort of these young men in the consolations brought home the region championship, our fifth consecutive traditional title. It was a true team effort, as all 14 combatants, not just the 10 qualifiers, scored contributing points."
As a result of the points earned by the team's individual wrestlers, Morgan County placed first as a whole in the tournament, with a cumulative score of 261.5. By comparison, Appling County and Pierce County, the first and second runners-up, earned 237.5 and 233 points, respectively.
With the sectionals squarely in their sights, the Mat Dogs are preparing for some of their toughest competition. "From here it gets significantly harder, as we are now pitted against Area 4-AAA, which is without a doubt the toughest of the four AAA areas," said Coach Robbins.
"Both teams that placed higher than us at state duals… were from this area."
For the second weekend in a row, the Mat Dogs will be hosting high-grade talent at their home gym.
The AAA Eastern Sectionals, which will begin at the MCHS gym at 10 a.m. this Saturday, Feb. 8, will again provide Morgan County sports fans with state-level competition right here in Madison.
Come out to give the Mat Dogs a true home-field advantage that will help to propel them on to the State Tournament!

Colorado Bureau of Investigation agents are investigating a possible child abuse incident in which a woman drove her SUV carrying two young daughters into the Arkansas River on Sunday.
The girls and the mother were all hospitalized with serious injuries, according to a news release by Audrey Simkins, spokeswoman for the Colorado Bureau of Investigation.
The name of the woman under investigation for possible child abuse has not been released. No charges have been filed in the case.
The girls, ages 8 and 10, were rescued from inside the SUV in the river. The mother was already out of the vehicle at that time, the news release says.
CBI was asked to help Southern Colorado law enforcement agencies to investigate the alleged child abuse case and car crash that sent two young Manzanola girls to the hospital.
The mother was allegedly driving north on Colorado State Highway 207 near Manzanola, which is 50 miles east of Pueblo, when she approached the Arkansas River Bridge.
"The vehicle left the roadway and landed in the Arkansas River," the news release says.
A passerby called 911 and emergency workers rescued the two girls from the SUV. The female driver was found outside of the vehicle.
The mother and two girls are expected to survive their injuries.
Otero County Sheriff's Office deputies, Manzanola's marshal, and investigators from the 16th Judicial District Attorney's Office are investigating to determine the events leading up to the traffic crash, the news release says.

Humans are funniest when they weep and tremble before, like you say, 'the facts in the case.'
The husband in my case was to be an inconvenience, but doubtless an amusing one.
Friends were there asking after their own Will, or John, or Thomas, as the case might be.
He knew that his case was hopeless, and he would not thaw even to the priest.
To my mind, under the conditions I have referred to, such could not fail to be the case.
The true remedy is not to be sought in that direction in the one case any more than the other.
In this case, I can only hope that in my experience it failed so to do.
It was fortunate that, in this case, no fears could be entertained.
Knife, however, must promise to leave his land to his son-in-law in case he died.
In my case, the minister himself proposed to apply for my testimonials.

Coffee @ Ralph's: Mark Anthony GreenTalking fashion, footwear, and dating strategy with GQ's new Style Guy
A brave—and social media–fueled—new era of men's fashion calls for its own arbiter of style, and that's exactly what GQ readers got this past summer when 27-year-old Mark Anthony Green took over the magazine's venerated advice column from longtime Style Guy Glenn O'Brien. O'Brien, who has since added editor in chief of Maxim to his long list of creative projects, is a legend in the worlds of fashion and downtown culture. Green, for his part, is more legend in the making—a fresh voice with a hip, real-world perspective on looking your best.In other words, he's the perfect choice for a moment when it feels like the time-honored rules of style have been thrown out the window. Actually, says Green, "It's not that there are no rules. It's just that there are more rules that you should break." Defying the conventions of style is integral to the Polo DNA—after all, Ralph Lauren basically invented the jeans-with-a-tux-jacket look—so that's a sentiment we can heartily cosign. Ultimately though, Green adds, showing wisdom beyond his years, "No one should break all the rules, and no one should obey all the rules." Knowing which is which? That's all part of the fun. In our latest "Coffee @ Ralph's" segment, shot on location at Ralph's Coffee in the Polo flagship store in NYC, the man friends call "MAG" offers his take on looking sharp, living smart, and the strategic benefit of impressing Emily Ratajkowski's mom.

Friends will be reunited for charity challenge
PUBLISHED: 07:58 20 August 2019 | UPDATED: 07:58 20 August 2019
Three Great Chesterford friends are reuniting in Scotland to raise money for Mind and Alzheimer's Research UK.
Phoebe Tealby-Watson, 21, decided she wanted to mark her birthday by taking on a big challenge. Fortunately her old school friends and neighbours, sisters Ishbel and Shiona Luke, agreed to join her.
Together they are walking the Isle of Arran Coastal Way - some 105km in five days. Another former Saffron Walden County High School friend, Katie Manby, from Steeple Bumpstead, is joining them along with Phoebe's flat mates and friends from university.
The walkers and their families are meeting their own costs so every penny raised is going to the charities. Another neighbour, businessman David Daw, of Print 4 Business Ltd, has supplied free printed t-shirts for the group.
The friends have already raised more than £1,000 but want to smash that original target. They've been told they face the worst midge conditions in Scotland for years and rain is forecast, so the challenge is set to be a daunting one. But the three girls all have Scottish family, and have holidayed together on the island several times before. Ishbel and Shiona now both study in Glasgow.
Phoebe said: "We would love to go above and beyond the original target, and we going to need all the motivation we can get to power us through the blisters, rain and midge bites."
Their donation page is found at https://uk.virginmoneygiving.com/arrancoastalway2019 or can be searched under Phoebe's name.
On the page, they write: "We feel incredibly passionate about what these charities are work for, particularly given our personal links to the causes. ARUK is funding pioneering research with the mission of bringing about the first life-changing dementia treatment by 2025.
"Mind provide advice and support to anyone experiencing a mental health problem and campaign to promote understanding and improve services. Please give as much as you feel you can."

I am not a vegetarian but I really do like vegetarian food. I think that we probably eat a vegetarian main meal at least three times a week, sometimes more. Eating a vegetarian diet is linked with better health and it is usually much cheaper. I'd like to say that a vegetarian meal will have a much lower carbon footprint but I guess that depends on where your veggies come from. Apparently this week is National Vegetarian Week, so in honour of that, here is one of my most recent dinners.
I was inspired by this recipe at Attic 24, having used it quite a lot. I wanted an easy going meal, i.e. no last minute trip to the shops. Rummaging in my cupboard, fridge and freezer I found the following ingredients:
1 Courgette (zucchini)
4 Spring onions (scallions)
1 Tin of Chick peas
1 Tin of Coconut milk,
1teaspoon Ground Coriander
1teaspoon Ground Cumin
1teaspoon Garam Masala
About a 2cm 'squeeze' of Garlic Puree
1 Vegetable Stock Cube
1 tablespoon of mango chutney
1 tablespoon of coriander leaf (frozen)
As you can see, I chopped up the veg, ready to fry it gently, in a large pan, with the lid on. I think this is what cheffy types call 'sweating off'. I also added the garlic and spices at this point. If you like your dinners a bit hotter, you could add your preferred amount of chilli at this point. If I was making this for just me and The Husband I would probably add about a teaspoon of mild chilli powder and about a quarter to a half a teaspoon of hot chilli powder. I think using both types gives depth of flavour and a bit of 'kick'.
When the vegetables were softened and the spices had released some flavour, I added the tinned chickpeas and coconut milk. I also added a vegetable stock cube and allowed everything to simmer for a while. Adding the mango chutney was an afterthought really that I remembered from the Attic 24 recipe. I just felt that more sweetness was needed. The last thing I added was the frozen, chopped coriander leaf. By the time that had defrosted I was ready to dish up.
I served it with boiled rice and steamed cauliflower. Again, if this had been a grown-ups only meal I would probably have added the cauliflower florets with the chickpeas and coconut milk but not all my children like them. I wish they did. We are experiencing a cauliflower glut at the moment. You can see them going to seed in the picture below.
A word about rice. I only ever use easy cook rice – 1 cupful of rice to 2 cupfuls of cold water, bring to the boil and simmer until done. I have never had success when cooking basmati but if you want to try there are tips to be found here and here.
The thing is, a store cupboard recipe like this can be endlessly adapted. You can change the balance of spices for a subtly different flavour or add your own favourites. The vegetables you use will depend on what you've got to hand. I've used regular onion, spinach, butternut squash and aubergine for example. You could use a different kind of bean or lentil to provide the protein. It is also a good way to use up left-over meat if vegetarianism is not your thing. Finally, I think this qualifies as both vegetarian and vegan, being dairy free if you fry in a suitable oil, rather than butter.
So, happy National Vegetarian Week everyone!

Frequently Asked Questions
Please read our FAQ and if any of your questions are not answered feel free to contact us.
A heat pump is an electrical device that extracts heat from one place and transfers it to another. The heat pump is not a new technology; it has been used in Canada and around the world for decades. Refrigerators and air conditioners are both common examples of this technology.
Heat pumps transfer heat by circulating a substance called a refrigerant through a cycle of evaporation and condensation. A compressor pumps the refrigerant between two heat exchanger coils. In one coil, the refrigerant is evaporated at low pressure and absorbs heat from its surroundings. The refrigerant is then compressed en route to the other coil, where it condenses at high pressure. At this point, it releases the heat it absorbed earlier in the cycle.
Refrigerators and air conditioners are both examples of heat pumps operating only in the cooling mode. A refrigerator is essentially an insulated box with a heat pump system connected to it. The evaporator coil is located inside the box, usually in the freezer compartment. Heat is absorbed from this location and transferred outside, usually behind or underneath the unit where the condenser coil is located. Similarly, an air conditioner transfers heat from inside a house to the outdoors.
The heat pump cycle is fully reversible, and heat pumps can provide year-round climate control inside your home – heating in winter and cooling/dehumidifying in summer. Since the ground and air outside always contains some heat, a heat pump can supply heat to a house even on cold winter days. In fact, air at -18°C contains about 85 percent of the heat it contained at 21°C.
A solar panel works by allowing photons, or particles of light, to knock electrons free from atoms, generating a flow of electricity. Solar panels actually comprise many, smaller units called photovoltaic cells. (Photovoltaic simply means they convert sunlight into electricity.) Many cells linked together make up a solar panel.
Solar panel modules and solar PV systems are usually comprised of solar panels, an inverter, isolator switches, a PV generation meter and cables. Some things to think about when considering installing a solar system: The more panels you can fit on your roof, the more expensive the system will be to purchase and install, but the more electricity you will produce. The electricity produced by the PV panels is direct current (DC) before it can be used in the home, it has to be converted to safer alternating current (AC) using a box called an inverter. This is often placed in the loft. For safety, isolator switches are also placed before and after the inverter. A PV generation meter is connected inside your home, so you can see a real time display of how much electricity the system is generating. The meter also measures the amount of electricity exported to the grid, and this is used to calculate your Feed-in Tariff payment, which provides cash in return for generating your own electricity. Finally, if you want to export excess electricity to the grid, there will be another cable to your consumer unit (fuse box).
Creating new and ultra-efficient renewable energy technologies is not just about harnessing the sun or wind and feeding it into our homes and office buildings. Making the most of what is already there also helps reduce our collective impact on the environment, and that includes the amount of heat we lose to the environment on a daily basis.
Heat recovery systems work by drawing on that potentially valuable warm air or water in a property and getting it to work just a little bit harder for us.
In a world without a green technology like heat recovery, air circulates around an office, becomes stale and is replaced by colder air that it is warmed up by the ventilation system. What happens to that already warm, stale air? It simply gets expelled into the atmosphere. Heat recovery systems don't replace the need for a boiler or other technology to heat your radiators but it does help them work more efficiently by recycling that warm air ensuring that you get the most out of it.
For domestic premises, a recovery system could help save on energy bills and keep the house warm during the winter months. It's easier to lose valuable heat in our homes, we simply open a window and that warm air just flies out into the atmosphere. With a ventilation system you get fresh, warm air constantly circulating through the house. For businesses and industry, heat recovery lies at the heart of making the work place and factory floor a far more efficient place.
How does it work?
A heat recovery system can work via a ventilation system which is positioned at the top of the building. Rather than just draw the stale air out and replace it with new air, first of all it works to draw the heat from the outgoing air and passes it to the incoming air.
Heat recovery ventilation works independently of your normal heating system. In each room there are ventilation ducts with filters that feed the air in and out of the space, all leading to a heat exchanger that is either placed in the loft or on the roof of a building.
This heat exchanger is the brain of the heat recovery system, moving the stale air through hundreds of small pipes whilst drawing in cold air from outside in other ducts. These flow past each other without mixing physically but the heat is drawn from the stale air to the cold air, which is then fed back down into the pipes and into the rooms. The stale air, minus its heat, is then expelled into the atmosphere.
The technology for heat recovery systems has improved dramatically over the years and there are now systems available that profess to extract up to 90% of the heat from stale air and return it to the fresh air that is circulating back into the system.
Different systems are needed to maximize the use of waste energy, converting it to something useful that can bring down costs and reduce the impact on the environment.
You will be:
- making use of secure and local resources.
- reducing your dependence on non-renewable energy.

Hey there!
I am Kirsten, a 30-year-old chick battling the urge to dance and run down the street like Phoebe in Friends, not giving a fuck what anyone thinks, and being an "adult" working towards professional, financial and personal goals. (Clearly, the first one is more fun)
I grew up with a colorful childhood, my family and I lived abroad in various countries and cultures. Until one day, while sitting on a Turkish rug eating naan bread and hummus my parents declared it was time to move to America. They needed to ensure my brother and I didn't get too messed up, that I didn't go through puberty wearing an abaya and to learn what it meant to be patriotic citizens. 'Merica!
I babbled through middle school with complete confusion on how to assimilate into America. I was Lindsey Lohan from Mean Girls, except I wasn't hot, no one asked me why I was white and So Fetch was only the name of my brother's Ska band.
One Catholic Girl High School experience, a D1 student-Athlete college life later and nearly a decade of work as an engineer (I didn't even have an engineering degree and somehow was able to convince a seriously acclaimed Biotech company to hire me. I know what you are thinking, and the answer is no. My boss was a happily married chick.) and I landed here…
A freelance writer in Southern California. And like every other person living within a 100-mile radius of LA, also acting. Watch out Isla Fisher, I'm coming for you (to be bff's obviously).
In order to fulfill my creative cup and pursue life's wildest dreams, I am writing a book. It will be emotional, raw, funny and full of sex, drugs, and rock'n'roll (okay maybe less rock'n'roll and more Odseza, but…same same)
During this time, I am also exploring everything that life has. If there is one think I know about myself it is this: I need to constantly do and learn. This journey will yes be about writing, it will also be about exploration and all that life can give.
I went to a medium and she told me I know more than I give myself credit for so maybe I'll drop a knowledge bomb here or there along the way. Especially now that this website is flagged on the terrorist list for using the word "bomb" …and now also terrorist…and now I used both twice. Shit.
Anyways, as my old-man crush Stephen King says, "If you plan to write as truthfully as you can, your days as a member of polite society are numbered anyways." Let the countdown begin…
So, dive deep with me on this journey as we experience life in the truest form! No filter, no editing of who I am or what I think and say.
This is me. I hope you enjoy!

There really isn't anything we don't love about our partnership with Alaska Airlines. Flexibility to jet off to the West Coast at a moment's notice and take our friends along for the ride? It couldn't be better.
With our recent San Francisco launch, we asked Love & LaRock blogger Terra LaRock to join us from her hometown of Denver. With over 300 nonstop flights from California to 60+ destinations at super low fares (as well as over 90 daily nonstop flights within the state of California), Terra had an array of choices to make her weekend away from her sweet babe as seamless as possible.
Terra was thrilled to tag along and fit in a visit with a dear friend and relatives while she was exploring all the Bay Area had to offer. Read on for her favorite places to check out while on the perfect Alaska Airlines getaway.
Where did you go on your trip?
San Fransisco to visit my childhood friend who I have known since I was two and my sister-in-law and niece who is around my daughter, Winter's, age.
What 3 places would you recommend is a "must see/do" in this city?
Oh no, just three?! That's a tough question! I really loved seeing the Golden Gate Bridge from Baker Beach and dipping my toes in the sand, visiting the iconic painted ladies, and shopping on Haight Street!
Describe your travel personality in 5 words or less.
Just book it and go!
Favorite thing about flying?
Walking off the plane to a new destination.
How do you dress for a comfy flight?
I always bring layers—tank top, shirt and a light sweater and a pair of socks. You never know what the temperature will be on the plane, so I liked to be prepared for it all.
Window seat or aisle seat?
Aisle! I am lucky enough that my husband likes the window and our two-year-old daughter likes the middle seat, so it always works out well.
Use the airplane wifi or unplug for a while?
Unplug! There is something so great about being up in the sky and really just enjoying the time to read and play with my little one.
Stand up and stretch or stay seated throughout?
I am a mover and shaker, so I am usually up and about at least once.
Chatting with strangers in nearby seats: yea or nay?
I love to chat with strangers. I have met some of the most fascinating people on planes. I once sat next to a Marine soldier returning from combat with the intention to propose to his girlfriend when he arrived. We talked about it the entire flight. I teared up talking to him. He said he had realized how much he couldn't live without her during a terrifying incident overseas. Our conversation put life in perspective for me, and I noticed I held my loved ones a little tighter that day.
Pictures of a plane wing: tired Instagram cliche or classic travel imagery?
This is a funny question. I often take this type of photo but never end up editing or doing anything with it. I guess when it comes down to it, it's not a photo that speaks to me.
Favorite snacks to enjoy in the sky?
Candy and a soda! I never have a sweet tooth but when I am on a plane, I love to get a soda (usually Sprite, sometimes a Coke if I am tired) and drink it alongside some Swedish Fish!
Cocktail or other drink of choice?
I never drink on a flight. I am prone to motion sickness, so a cocktail is the last thing I need on a flight. I usually stick with some bubbles like Sprite or Cola.
Entertainment: What do you like to watch/read/listen to during flights?
If I am with my daughter, then she is the boss. I read, do, watch, and listen to whatever she wants. When we travel with her, we usually bring three books in our carryon that she insists we read over and over.
If I am traveling alone or with my husband, I love to read a book. Not on a kindle, not on my phone, and not on a computer. I like holding a bound book in my hands. I just find it so relaxing.
Any special beauty/wellness essentials in your carry-on? (Eye mask, face mist, neck pillow, etc.)
Travel facial tissues all the way! There is nothing more satisfying than wiping your face off before you land.
Favorite travel gizmos? (Headphones, iPad accessories, etc.)
None! I am on my phone and computer so much during the week, the last thing I want to do on a trip is have more screen-time.
Best ways to keep kids entertained on board?
Pack "surprises"! I love to raid the dollar store and get 3-5 small gifts for our daughter to open while flying. I typically individually wrap each present in tinfoil, and when she starts to get antsy, I pull one out. She loves to open the tinfoil (that is a fun activity in itself)! One of the surprises is always reusable stickers. Those things are amazing for traveling toddlers. Stickers everywhere!
Any other surprising hacks/tricks/tips you've discovered for a happy flight?
The takeoff and decent always makes me feel a little queasy, and our daughter, unfortunately, has taken after me in that motion sickness department. I typically pack ginger chews and split one with her on the takeoff and during the descent. They seem to soothe both of our tummies in a jiffy.

I was 23 years old when things with my health started to cause me problems. I Ignored it at 1st but when it started really affecting me at my job and at home, i knew something was really wrong. i was first diagnosed with
Relapsing-remitting MS at the age of 24 years old. Instead of me being upset or scared about my diagnosis i was relieved. Relieved because for 1 1/2 years i went to 5 different pcp, and it took 1 to atually listen, run tests and diagnosis me. My biggest challenge with having MS would be excepting the things i can't do anymore, and asking for help. I believe that one day a cure for MS will be invented and until that day comes im gonna continue to be involved in MS community activities.
