What family doesn't like pasta for dinner? It's easy to make and tastes great. A favorite topping for our family and many other has always been pesto.
This recipe I got from a book called, "Everyday Vegan Eats," written by Zsu Dever. In the 240 pages, she features dozens of dishes from breakfast and lunch to dinner and dessert.
My 15-year-old son put together this dinner. It took him about an hour to make and to say everyone loved it, would be an understatement. He tripled the recipe so everyone had it for lunch the next day. I would have had it for dinner again if we had more leftovers.
It tastes great, but this pasta dish is also good for you. The almonds help fight off heart disease and diabetes and the garlic lowers triglycerides and total cholesterol.
For all of those hard to please families out there, this is an easy one. One bite and you'll be hooked. Enjoy the pesto sauce and of course, that vegan thing.
(From Everyday Vegan Eats 2014 by Zsu Dever. Used with permission from
Vegan Heritage Press, LLC)
1 pound penne or other pasta
2 cups tightly packed fresh basil
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1/4 cup chopped almonds toasted
4 garlic cloves, finely chopped
sea salt and fresh ground black pepper
Cook the pasta in a large pot of boiling salted water until al dente. Drain well, reserving 1/2 cup of cooking water. Return the pasta to the pot and set aside. While the pasta is cooking, make the pesto. In a food processor or blender, like a Ninja or Vitamix, combine the basil, oil, nuts, garlic and salt and pepper. Process until finely smooth. Toss the pesto sauce with the hot cooked pasta. Then add the reserved cooking water to thin out the sauce and serve.

Royal Vision No. 7 Wonder Grey Prescription Colored Contacts
These beautiful new grey contacts for brown eyes from Royal Vision will make your dull eyes come to life! The No 7 Lady Brown variant features an exhilarating combination of a carefully gradated limbal ring (to avoid a harsh unnatural edge on your iris) with a detailed pattern of smokey grey fading in towards the centre. Thin lens material and the 1-month wear cycle also encourages healthier eyes. The result? Beautiful, comfortable eyes that shine. And a more refreshed, brighter looking you.
The No 7 series is an exclusive line of grey contacts for brown eyes designed by Instagram celebrity No 7. She's famous for her bright purple hair and vivid, youthful style combining inspirations from LA and Tokyo street fashions. When she approached us to design prescription colored contacts, she wanted something that would make a visible difference to the size and color of one's eye, while retaining a natural appearance that wouldn't draw questionable stares. After months of prototypes and trials, this is what we came up with!
- Wonder Grey is a blue-toned grey that will give your eyes an aura of energy and exoticism. Wear these lenses with bright red lipstick for a truly jaw-dropping look.
- Available in both non prescription and myopia prescription (power )
- Sold as a box containing 2 lenses of the same power. Please order 2 boxes if you have a different power for each eye.
- The 13.6 mm graphic diameter ensures complete coverage of the standard iris. We made sure that the rim (extending beyond the iris) was more densely colored, such that the whites as the eyes don't peep through and look like a lighter halo around the iris.
- These lenses are made with the all-popular 2-HEMA material, a hydrogel known to be both durable and moisture-retaining at the same time. Additionally, the coloration is sandwiched between two layers of clear 2-HEMA, ensuring that it never directly touches the eye.
Royal Vision grey contacts for brown eyes are thin and breathable, keeping your eyes feeling fresh and comfortable all day. They're made from by one of the largest color contact lens exporters in South Korea who have been in business for 20 years and counting. These prescription colored contacts are certified by the Korean FDA and CE, so you can be assured you're wearing products of high quality.

Dear Doug,ReplyDelete
If you are into archetypes have a look at my blog post called "Archetypes Don't Matter!" at http://www.durantlaw.info/Archetypes .
My post looks at Patrick Lambe's archetypes and Katie Altham' archetypes - she has over 100 with names like Zeus and Dionysus. They appear to me to be at best an extension and simplification of Carl Jung's work, and at worst little better than pop psychology or even horoscopy. Frankly I'm not convinced of their use, other than to have a bit of fun.
Regards, Graham

I think Patrick Lambe's archetype work is very pacific to the names of the characters and to the pacific character he is talking about. Not to you and your personality. more like examples then for you.ReplyDelete
Though I do think that Caroline Myss's archetype work is much better. The archetypes are much more real life like and direct to your personality.
Katie Altham work I'm not sure of. I haven't read the book though looks from it, if you were to use it for personality work. You would have to cut out a lot for the male and female dominated. Seems like she as quite a few and all to do with the Greek gods.
Just look at her 6.
I will still say I prefer a more real life like archetypes. Also I have seen Caroline myss's archetype work similar to finding out your personality from other methods ways.

We tend to devote a lot of our blog space to talking about things like truck tarps, tow truck accessories, and supplies for farming operations. We want to deviate a bit with this post by talking about the annual CVSA Roadcheck. It is now less than one month away.
Every year the Commercial Vehicle Safety Alliance conducts their annual Roadcheck event as a way to remind both truck drivers and motor carriers to go the extra mile to make sure they are in compliance. Every year that Roadcheck has a different focus.
Last year's focus was cargo control. Inspectors were out in full force during the first week of June checking everything from tie-downs to the integrity of chains and ratchet straps. Thousands of trucks were found in violation, many of which were taken out of service until problems were rectified.
Hours of Service Rules for 2018
The Roadcheck this year focuses on drivers' hours of service. As you know, the ELD mandate that went into effect this past December makes it a requirement for drivers to track their on-duty hours using an electronic logging device. Although ELD enforcement has been spotty to date, the annual Roadcheck is an opportunity to remind drivers that strict enforcement will begin in earnest very soon.
Whether you agree with the ELD mandate or not, it is what it is. It is a necessary part of modern trucking. The mandate is the same for open deck drivers, dry van haulers, reefer drivers, tanker haulers, and even hazmat drivers.
Be sure you are prepared by having a working ELD on your truck. Also start paying a lot more attention to your pre-trip inspections. Law enforcement will be looking at other things as well during the 2018 Roadcheck.
Don't Forget Cargo Control
As experts in cargo control for the trucking industry, we are smart enough to know that CVSA inspectors will not be ignoring violations just because the focus of this year's Roadcheck event is hours of service. They will still be looking at how well cargo is secured.
Now would be a good time to go through your inventory of cargo control supplies to make sure you have everything you need to do the job safely and in full compliance. If any of your ratchet straps are worn for example, replace them now. Do not wait for an inspector to give you the evil eye and a possible violation.
Make sure you have enough straps, chains, and blocks on board. Make sure you are paying attention to working load limits as well as the length and width of your loads. And if you're not utilizing a bulkhead at the front of your open deck trailer, refresh your memory on the extra tie-downs necessary to prevent your loads from shifting.
Let's Do Better Than Last Year
Although the results of last year's Roadcheck were comparatively good, there were still far too many violations found. Let's all work together to do better this year. Let us show CVSA inspectors and the general public that our industry does truly care about safety and regulations.
If you are having any trouble with your ELD, contact its manufacturer or your employer, if applicable. For cargo control supplies, contact us at Mytee Products. We have everything you need to haul just about any kind of load.
The 2018 CVSA Roadcheck is almost upon us. Are you ready? Hopefully you are, because the first week of June will be here before you know it. And with it will come on army of inspectors and law enforcement officers looking for violations.

Review by Drugo
Submitted by Drugo on
The first and the most accurate of the post-apocalyptic movies based on the novel I Am legend. The whole film is drenched with sadness and pessimism, thanks to the performance of Vincent Price and to the alienating scenarios of a desert Rome (mostly the EUR district).
Those who saw only the 2007 remake could be surprised to find that everything had already been done and (in my opinion) even better.

The most important component of a machine is an engine.Without an engine a machine is considered to be dead.Due to their importance the owners of the machines will do their level best to ensure that the engines are well maintained.The owners do this by checking the engines regularly and making sure that their capacity is not overused.Some case you may find that engines have failed to perform their work due to wrong usage.Finding another engine will be the best in such circumstances.It is not easy to find a replacement for the engine.The cost of an engine is very high but not as expensive as it might be with the cost of the machine thus will be so bearing for the owner.To get a good engine for one's machine a thorough research is so essential.A good experience of the market will be so important for one to get a good engine.To obtain a good engine, it's important to consider the following tips.
Buying an engine requires one to collect information first.The friends who have been doing the buying and the selling of the engines will serve as the source of information in buying the engines.For correct match between the engine there must be such information to aid one.Through this one will be saved from acquiring an engine that will pose a lot challenges to his machine.Since the owner of the machine is concern with getting value for his money, the information collected will help him get the trusted dealer for his engine.It is important to note that due to the expensive nature of the engines one should not compromise not to collect information .Not collecting information will mean what one might obtain ,may be of poor quality thus it will be costly in the long run.Getting a poor engine will reduce the speed of the machine thus it might not give the expected output.
To obtain the best engine ensure you check the warranty.Some of the dealers give warranty for their engines such that a damage to the engine within a given period can be maintained by the dealer.Any damages to the engine cannot be maintained by dealers who have not provided warranty for their engines.Therefore before you purchase an engine ensure that there us a warranty to cushion you against the events that may affect the working of the engine.
Determine the mileage of the engine so that find whether it can serve you better.The power of the engine is dependent on the mileage it will cover.The needs you want the engine to meet should be the criteria of selecting the engine you want.Caution should be exercised to avoiding acquiring an engine that cannot meet your need.


text: Meet Afghanistan's first female fixed-wing pilot Pursuing her dreams has brought Niloofar Rahmani more trouble than she imagined, but she's determined to succeed. Danielle Moylan09 Nov 2015 12:18 GMT International Women's Day, War & Conflict, Afghanistan, Taliban Two years ago, Niloofar Rahmani became Afghanistan's first female fixed-wing pilot [Andrew Quilty/Oculi] Kabul, Afghanistan - When Niloofar Rahmani was eight years old, her mother realised that there was something different about her daughter. It was the late 1990s, and, like millions of other Afghans escaping Taliban rule, the Rahmanis had fled their home in Kabul and were living as refugees in neighbouring Pakistan. Niloofar's mother had taken the eight-year-old and her older sister to an amusement park. Worn down by an onslaught of childish whining, she had finally relented and allowed the girls to ride the park's star attraction: a rickety roller-coaster. "They were just kids," she shrugs. She suspected it would be a case of tough love. "I thought they would come back crying." And, as expected, as soon as the carriage ground to a halt, Niloofar's sister climbed off, terrified and running for the comfort of her mother. But Niloofar, smaller and younger by two years, dismounted in fits of laughter. She wanted to go again. "I just loved being so far away from the ground, being up in the sky," Niloofar remembers. "It was so fast and it went so high, so scary for a child. But I loved it." That moment - the love of weightlessness and confrontation of fear - would later crystallise into a near impossible goal, as her father talked of his own unrealised dream of becoming a pilot. He had never had the opportunity. Afghanistan didn't - and still doesn't - have a civil aviation school, and such careers were traditionally reserved, through the military or by travelling abroad, for the sons of Afghanistan's financial and political elite. But, 10 years after that roller-coaster ride, as Niloofar was finishing school, she heard a radio report about how Afghanistan would now accept women into its military. This is my chance, she thought. Three years later, Niloofar Rahmani became Afghanistan's first female fixed-wing pilot - the first woman to be trained as an Afghan Air Force pilot in more than 30 years. It was the realisation of a long-held dream. But it has brought more trouble than she could ever have imagined. 'Like a shadow' Many Afghans have heard of Niloofar. She has been on local television, and her pictures have been published on popular local news websites. On television, she comes across as cool and professional. In person, she is confident and polite. She recounts the threats she has faced, apologising in advance if it gets boring - she isn't trying to downplay them, she's just very matter-of-fact. In 2013, when she completed her first solo flight, in a Cessna-182, the military publicised her achievement, and Niloofar's world changed. Training had been tough. She felt a distinct lack of support from her male Afghan colleagues, she says. There had been no harassment, no violence, just an undercurrent of some willing her to fail , she explains. At best they saw her as a token female, she elaborates. At worst, some accused her, behind her back, of being a prostitute or drug addict. I think that everyone came out to watch to see if I would screw it up, maybe even crash the plane. Niloofar Rahmani Her first solo flight, a major hurdle for any pilot, attracted hundreds of her Afghan colleagues, as well as some international mentors who had helped with her training. "I think that everyone came out to watch to see if I would screw it up, maybe even crash the plane," she recalls. But she didn't feel entirely without support. She recalls how one US commander gave her his "wings" badge - the one you receive when you become a pilot - before the flight, saying: "I know you'll keep this safe for me." The flight went just fine. When she clambered out of the plane, she felt excited and proud. Some exuberant female coalition soldiers insisted that she be dunked in water - an international tradition for air force pilots after their first solo flight. Related: Afghanistan: No Country for Women A British and an American, both women, picked her up. Someone - no one knows who - took a photo. That photo was quickly circulated online and, suddenly, the millions of Afghans who are hooked on social media heard the name Niloofar Rahmani for the first time. That's when the problems began, because in that photo where everyone, Niloofar included, is smiling and celebrating, one of the women holding her up, hair tucked underneath her cap, looks like she could, maybe, be a man - an American man. In Afghanistan, where young women and girls are often called names for acting in any way perceived to be outside of strict culturally conservative norms, 'maybe' can be all it takes. On second look, some speculated, the other woman holding her, couldn't that also be an American man? Soon they concluded that what the picture actually showed was two American men baptising Niloofar. When I first saw the photo that was circulated, it was captioned: "The Afghanistan military at the service of American alcoholics." Google Niloofar's name in her language Dari, a dialect of the Persian language spoken in Afghanistan, and it's not difficult to find the trolls. On the Facebook page of an Afghan official, there's a photograph of her in a headscarf, trousers, and a long jacket. She's receiving a US state department award; being recognised as an "International Woman of Courage". "She's a prostitute," one person remarks below the picture. "Death to this kind of girl who calls herself a Muslim," says another. But there were worse consequences. There were threatening phone calls from men speaking in Pashto, a language she doesn't understand. Later, a letter signed by the Tehreek-e-Taliban Pakistan was dropped at her doorstep, telling her to quit flying, or face death. Her extended family - cousins and uncles she barely knows - have harassed her immediate family, forcing them to move from house to house every couple of months. Each time they have tracked them down, issuing threats and, on one occasion, beating her brother in a shopping mall. In another incident, Niloofar says, her brother was shot at when leaving his university late at night. Her father lost his job; his colleagues shunned him, saying he should be ashamed of his daughter. "The worst thing is my extended family," Niloofar says. "They are like a shadow that is always with me." When she went to senior officials at the Afghan Air Force, they said they couldn't help. You knew this was going to happen, she says they told her. "You know this society, you decided to come anyway," Niloofar recalls them saying. "Now this is happening, there is nothing we can do, you have to take care of it yourself." She admits that a couple of weeks ago, after a tense telephone conversation with a superior, she cried in her mother's arms. It's at this point in the interview, as her face grows tense from recounting it all, that it hits me: She is only 23 years old. She has been through so much and feels, I think, very alone. 'Complete freedom' Afghanistan's security force is funded almost entirely by the US. In those early post-Taliban days, in a massive rush of aid dollars, donors pushed for gender integration, a huge cultural shift for Afghanistan's military. "Some Afghan men see women in the military as a threat; they take it almost as a personal threat, if a woman can do the same job as them to the same ability," said a US official, speaking on the condition of anonymity . Ambitious goals were set: 10 percent of Afghanistan's military should be women - a ratio that exceeds countries like Norway and Denmark and isn't much lower than the US' at around 15 percent. That policy has now been revised, with the aim, instead, for 5,000 Afghan servicewomen within the next 10 years. There are currently fewer than 1,000 in total, and only around 50 in the air force. While she trained alone, Niloofar isn't the only female fixed-wing pilot in the Afghan Air Force. There's one other, who keeps her identity private. Others have gone through the training, but family pressure has precluded them from taking on active duty, according to Niloofar and the US official . She also isn't the only well-known female air force officer. The highest-ranking woman in the air force is Brigadier General Khatool Mohammadzai, who trained as a paratrooper during Afghanistan's communist era. In the past, Mohammadzai has been open about being badly treated. In 2011, she told The National newspaper that some in the army wished death upon her . Other colleagues called her "that ugly lesbian". But now, when asked about Niloofar and how women are treated in the Afghan Air Force, she chooses her words carefully. "We have a lot of difficulties - but all women all over the world do," she says. They hardly know each other, but Mohammadzai speaks warmly of Niloofar. She mentions, almost as an afterthought, that she has written poems in Niloofar's honour and offers to recite one: "You fly over the mountains Over the trees and greens Over the rivers and valleys You're flying above like a dove Like a parrot, let your heart sing You're a hero in the air You're a hero Niloofar pilot I am Khatool paratrooper" Niloofar once flew Mohammadzai, and other high-ranking officers, to Jalalabad, a city in Afghanistan's east. She recalls with a smile how the older woman hugged her after the flight. "She said she was really proud of me," Niloofar remembers. "It meant a lot." Part of Niloofar's work has been to transport high-ranking military and government officials around Afghanistan. In her pre-flight briefings, it hasn't been unusual for her male passengers to express disbelief that Niloofar would be their pilot, and refuse to board. "I try not to get upset, they've never seen a female fly a plane before," she says. "I just tell them, 'Sir, the aircraft is ready and we're going in five minutes.'" Most of the time they complain but eventually take their seat on the plane, she says, and when the flight goes just fine, as it always does, some of those men have apologised for doubting her capability. She has changed some minds and challenged some preconceptions, she acknowledges. These small, rare wins - an encouraging word from a colleague, or just an acknowledgement for being competent at her job - loom large in her mind. She recalls these moments in a level of detail that suggests just how important they are to her. When she opens up, she is effusively warm, and smiles with gap teeth she tends to hide in photographs. She uses phrases like "awesome", "that sucks", and "cool" - telltale signs of time spent around US military personnel. She poses patiently but a little nervously for a portrait. After our first meeting, she hugs me and says, "You're my friend now". Apart from a couple of Afghan women, most of the friends she mentions are foreign women - coalition soldiers, journalists, a well-known lawyer. "She has an eagerness to connect to women, to develop a sisterhood," says one of her Afghan friends, Mariam Wardak. "I think she is missing that." I ask her about love. "To be honest, I've seen too many bad, dishonest men," she says. "In my work I have probably met a thousand different men and I never found one that I could trust or know he's a good person. That has taken away any idea of romance for me." She wears a fake engagement ring at work to stave off harassment. To keep up the ruse, she even told her closest friends that she was engaged. Beyond her immediate family, Niloofar is guarded about who she lets into her life. "I think even one day my best friend could become my worst enemy," she says. But flying allows Niloofar to forget these troubles. "When I'm in the air, I feel all my heavy thoughts lift from my shoulders. I feel complete freedom," she says. A responsibility to succeed "The remarkable thing is she hasn't given up," says Kimberly Motley, an international lawyer, and a friend of Niloofar's. When Niloofar started her pilot training, says Motley, "it was a personal dream, but now that she's older and evolving as a person, I think she sees it as a responsibility in which she has no choice but to succeed. She needs to succeed for her family and for Afghanistan". But the circumstances in which she has found herself mean she has sometimes had to be more than just a pilot; becoming a symbol for women's rights as well. "In our country the way [people] think is that women have to stay in the house," Niloofar explains. "They think women are physically weak, and they can't - they're not allowed - to do this. This kind of thinking is a motivation for me." We are seated in my dining room. She picks a few cashews from the snack bowl only when I leave the room; I can hear her crunching on the tape recorder when I listened back later. Barely touching her tea, she talks quickly and listens intently when I mention that in my home country of Australia, the military recently opened many front-line combat roles to women. "Wow, I think that's great, just awesome," she says. "If they allowed that here, I would be the first one ready to do this." Niloofar's dream wasn't the military. She wanted to be a pilot and the air force was her only option. She admits that she would have preferred to have trained as a civil aviation pilot. But Niloofar became Afghanistan's first female fixed-wing pilot and continues to serve despite so many around her saying she couldn't and the threats against her and her family. "When people tell me you can't do something, it hurts me," she says. "I always want to show them that I can." She says she has only once thought of quitting . Training was harder than she ever could have imagined. About halfway through, the feelings of isolation and of being sidelined by her male colleagues became overwhelming. She confided in an American female mentor whose response was to give her a book - a biography of Amelia Earhart. "When I read her story I realised she as a woman - okay, in America, many years ago, in a different time - but she went through exactly what I'm going through," she says . I realised that it always has to be someone who brings change. This time, it has to be me. It might be really tough, but I thought I have to be strong like [Earhart]. Maybe one day it will be me who writes a book and inspires someone else. Niloofar Rahmani Even though they were decades apart, reading Earhart's biography made Niloofar realise that she wasn't alone. "We shared the same problems with the behaviour of men," she reflects. "I'm not the only one who has faced this situation." Reading that book, a few pages every day, she says, "my mind completely changed". She realised that what she was doing could be something bigger - something more than just for herself. "I realised that it always has to be someone who brings change. This time, it has to be me. It might be really tough, but I thought I have to be strong like [Earhart]. Maybe one day it will be me who writes a book and inspires someone else." 'Forcing change' Niloofar is now in the US to spend the next two years training to pilot a C-130, a large military transport plane, which inspires awe in online plane forums, and is described as "an incredibly tough bird to fly". It's been suggested that the US government offered her the training to escape the threats and the pressure she's endured. "It is a great opportunity for her and hopefully at the same time the training may alleviate some of the pressure on her," said the US official, before emphasising: "She's duly qualified." Niloofar has a public Facebook profile, where she has uploaded pictures of herself in uniform. In one recent post, she asks her "fanz" how they are doing. "Her Facebook profile to me doesn't say that she is trying to keep a low profile. I'm not sure if it's naivety or a lack of understanding," said the US official. I put this to her friends . "Why should she have to alter herself for others?" says Motley. "Why should you or I have to adjust our lives to meet others' expectations? There's nothing untoward on her Facebook and frankly, she is a 23-year-old girl, and girls in their 20s have Facebook." "She is forcing people to adapt to her," says Wardak. "She gets negative comments all the time, she gets harassed, and she acts classily and doesn't react. She might be the only one, but she is forcing change." When I ask about her detractors, Niloofar says she doesn't want them to know they can get under her skin and also, importantly, she doesn't want to discourage other girls from following their dreams too. "I want men to know I have not been scared of them," she says. "I just smile to them and pretend there is nothing wrong in my life. I want them to know that other females are coming." When I ask her if she is proud of herself, she responds with a quiet, "Oh yeah." "Have you worked hard ?" I ask. "I did. I really did," she says. "Sometimes when I'm talking about my situation, it's easy to put it into words, but living it has been difficult. But this is the only way." You can follow Danielle on Twitter at @danielle_jenni.

Bud Light to hand out free beer for Eagles fans during victory parade
Led by backup quarterback Nick Foles, the Eagles capped off an amazing season with their first-ever Super Bowl win. Needless to say, the city of Philadelphia and its passionate fan base will never quite be the same.
PHILADELPHIA (AP) — Bud Light is spilling the details on how Philadelphia can cash in on its promise of free beer for the city now that the Eagles have won the Super Bowl.
They're making good on a summertime deal with Eagles offensive tackle Lane Johnson.
The company tweeted that 25 bars along the parade route will be offering free Bud Light to patrons.
More: A quick rundown of things heard on the Philadelphia police scanner after the Eagles' Super Bowl LII win
More: Unruly Birds fans: Yo, Eagles ya did it!
The deal came after Johnson said in an interview last summer that should the Eagles win the Super Bowl, he would give out beer "to everybody."
Bud Light tweeted to Johnson "Let's make a bet. Win it all and the party is on us. Deal?"
The beer maker went on to change its catchphrase "Dilly Dilly" to "Philly Philly" celebrating the Eagles playoff run.


text: In my opinion one of the best things that has happened in recent years was the Disney purchase of the Star Wars franchise. Not only was it a margin at $2 billion, but we all get to enjoy lots of new movies. Episode 7 was excellent and I am looking forward to Rouge One coming out. I'm not the only on either. The Internet has been filled with fandom items for Rouge One including some fantastic artwork. Here are some of the best Star Wars Rouge One movie posters I have found so far. [Read more…]

- "You do understand the Geneva Convention prohibits using prisoners for scientific experiments?"
"No offence, Doc, but had the Wraith attended the Geneva Convention, they would have tried to feed on everyone there."
- ―Elizabeth Weir and John Sheppard[src]
The Geneva Convention is a treaty on Earth, detailing the treatment of prisoners by foreign nations among the Tau'ri. One of these is that prisoners cannot be used in medical experiments. John Sheppard has speculated that if the Wraith were at Geneva, they would have fed on the delegates. (SGA: "Poisoning the Well") Dr. Kavanagh, during his list of things Dr. Weir did wrong, claiming that testing a Hoffan drug on a captured Wraith was a violation of the treaty. (SGA: "Letters from Pegasus")

Baking Basics 101: Equipment
Let's state the obvious observation about college students: we HATE spending money. If we have any income at all, most of it inevitably goes towards food. This food can vary from Domino's to Chinese food to Cook Out (if you're blessed enough to live in the South and be in the proximity of such a gem). With all this spending on food though, there's barely any money left for anything else.
This makes it pretty challenging to bake things that require a ton of baking equipment. Most students get by with just a cookie sheet and prepackaged cookie dough, but for excessive bakers like myself, this kind of baking just doesn't satisfy.
So today, I'm doing something a little bit different. Rather than post a recipe, I'm going to go over all my baking essentials. We're going to deep dive into my baking bin and go over which equipment you really need, for what kind of recipes and which equipment you can pass on (and buy some pizza instead)!
- Cookie sheets: MUST! These are probably the most essential pieces of baking equipment that I own. Nearly everything that I bake requires a cookie sheet. I have two because I find that my recipes rarely fit on one sheet, but you could get by with just one, you would just have to wait a little while between batches.
- Needed for: cookies, macarons, toffee, caramels, pastries, bark
- Muffin tin: PASS! Unless you are a muffin or cupcake aficionado, you can probably pass on a muffin tin.
- Needed for: muffins, cupcakes, buttertarts
- 8×8 pan: MUST! This pan is my second most used next to the trusty cookie sheet. Though I don't use this nearly as much as my cookie sheet, it is essential for many delicious treats. If you don't see yourself making any of the treats below very often, this can probably be a pass for you. There's always the option to buy a disposable aluminum pan if you find yourself craving some lemon bars one day!
- Needed for: brownies, bars, cakes, cinnamon rolls, fudge
- Loaf pan: PASS! I don't think I've ever used my loaf pan at school. The recipe options for this pan are a lot more limited, so save some money and under-bed space and pass on this one.
- Needed for: loaf breads, i.e. banana bread
- Cooling rack: MUST! Once your cookies or other treats have partially cooled, you can transfer the treats to the cooling rack to cool completely, freeing up your cookie sheet or pan to put another batch in the oven. These are also good to put hot pans on so they don't melt the countertop in the dorm kitchen.
- Needed for: cookies, macarons, muffins, cupcakes, and many more treats!
- Saucepan: MUST! As useful as saucepans are in baking for caramels and other fantastic treats, they're just as useful for easy dinners such as mac n' cheese and ramen.
- Needed for: caramels, toffee, tempering chocolate, simple syrups
- Rubber spatulas: MUST! There's not a whole lot to say about these other than I use at least one for every single thing that I bake. Now, one may be sufficient and the mini ones may not be necessary, but they sure are adorable!
- Needed for: the list is endless!
- Spatula: PASS! The only justification I can really find for having a flat spatula is to lift up cookies when they are done baking, but at this point, the cookies should be cooled and firm enough to be picked up by hand. Even for macarons, which may require some assistance off of the paper or mat, I much prefer using a straight-edge spatula.
- Needed for: potentially cookies
- Rolling pin: PASS! This is actually the most recent addition to my bin. While it does make crushing cookies or rolling out dough a little bit easier, you could do nearly as much with a wine bottle. I've even used my water bottle in the past.
- Needed for: pies, crushing cookies/crackers (in place of a food processor), pastries
- Whisk: Must! While you may think that a spoon or rubber spatula would do just as well, sometimes you need a lighter utensil to mix ingredients. For example, if you sifted ingredients, a whisk may do better to lightly toss the ingredients together rather than fully mixing them.
- Needed for: various recipes
- Sieve: Must! Rather than get a full hand sifter, I use a medium-sized sieve to sift together dry ingredients. Because I make macarons all the time, this is completely essential to me, but if macarons aren't your thing, feel free to pass on this one!
- Needed for: macarons, cakes, breads
- Wooden spoon: PASS! I know, I know. You'd think that out of all the utensils in the world you would need to bake, a wooden spoon should be #1, but hear me out for a sec. I can't think of a single thing a wooden spoon can do that a rubber spatula can't. Whether it's mixing cookie dough or making caramel, I always choose a rubber spatula over the good ol' wooden spoon.
- Needed for: same as rubber spatulas
- Dry and liquid measuring cups/spoons: MUST! Even though I've officially been converted to using a digital scale to measure my ingredients, many, if not most, recipes still only have the traditional cup/spoon measurements.
- Needed for: nearly everything!
- Straight-edge spatula: MUST! This one is essential for me when it comes to leveling off cups and lifting macarons delicately off the cookie sheet.
- Needed for: leveling ingredients, icing cakes, lifting cookies from sheet
- Cookie scoop: PASS! Now, don't get me wrong, I use this every single time I make cookies, but if you need to save some dough (see what I did there…?), a regular tablespoon will do just as well!
- Needed for: cookies, cupcakes
- Mixing bowls: MUST! This pretty much goes without saying, but I can't really think of any recipe that wouldn't require some sort of bowl in order to mix ingredients. I have small, medium and large bowls and I use them all. I even sometimes feel like I need even more!
- Needed for: pretty much every recipe out there!
- Glass bowl: PASS! The smartest move here probably would have been to invest in glass or metal mixing bowls, but alas, the past is the past. I use a medium glass bowl over my saucepan in place of a double boiler to temper chocolate or make custards, because it's a lot more space conscious. Just fill the bottom of the saucepan with a bit of water and place the bowl on top. Voila! A make-shift double boiler!
- Needed for: melting and tempering chocolate, custards, mousses, pastry creams
- Parchment paper/silicone baking mats: MUST! Not only does it make for much easier clean up, but having at least one of these is essential for pretty much anything you bake on a cookie sheet.
- Needed for: macarons, cookies, bark, caramels, pastries
- Silicone prep mat: PASS! I pretty much got this mat just because the counters in the communal kitchen are pretty disgusting and this makes things a little more sanitary and a lot easier to clean up. But this one is by no means necessary!
- Needed for: not needed, but helpful for many recipes
- Hand mixer: MUST/PASS! Like the sieve, this one truly depends on if you see yourself baking macarons or making buttercream. I also have the whisk attachment to make whipping egg whites a little easier. For these recipes, a hand mixer is 100% necessary, but if you're not, no need!
- Needed for: macarons, buttercreams/frostings, helpful for cakes and cookies
- Cutting board + sharp knife: PASS! There aren't very many situations I find myself in when I need to be cutting/chopping things, but when I do, this comes in handy so I'm not scoring the kitchen counter.
- Needed for: chopping chocolate, slicing dough
- Digital scale: PASS! As much as I am completely in love with my scale and rely on it for nearly all my recipes, if you're looking to save a little money, you can pass on this one. Most recipes have cup measurements, so there's not much you can't do without a scale.
- Needed for: measuring ingredients
- Tupperware/Ziploc bags: MUST! This one is less of a baking necessity, but more of an after-thought. Where are you going to put all those treats after you're done baking?! (Other than your stomach…?) These are a must for storing your delicious treats.
- Needed for: storing baked goods
- Oven mitts: MUST! How else are you going to take things out of the oven?
- Needed for: gotta protect those hands!
Phew! We did it. I know that this is a very long list, but hopefully I've cleared up exactly what you need and don't to get your college baking career started! Of course, there are many more baking tools that would make my life a thousand times easier, but these are just my essentials (what I'd do for a Kitchenaid stand mixer at school!). So go get yourself a bin and let's get baking!

Growth Energy responds to Inhofe's anti-ethanol claims
Growth Energy has spoken out to a floor speech made by Sen. Jim Inhofe, R-Okla., in opposition to the Consumer and Fuel Retailer Choice Act, which aims to extend the Reid vapor pressure (RVP) waiver to fuel blends with more than 10 percent ethanol.
In his speech, Inhofe claimed that the Renewable Fuel Standard harms the environment and that ethanol increases food prices and damages vehicle engines. "With all the problems with the RFS it would be irresponsible of the Congress to give them this waiver without addressing the larger issues with the program," he said. "Between CAFE and the RFS, the fuel industry has its hands full. But the war is being waged on all fronts and I will be working to address as much as I can while I can. There are no guarantees that the next administration after President Trump will not return to the 'regulate to death' plans of the Obama administration."
In response, Growth Energy CEO Emily Skor stressed the Fuel Retailer Choice Act is about protecting consumer choice year-round and noted E15 is better for the environment, improves engine performance, and saves Americans money at the pump. "We stand firm that Congress should put the needs of consumers ahead of the oil industry," she added.
"E15 is a federally approved fuel for all cars made since 2001," Skor said. "It boosts octane, saves consumers up to 10 cents per gallon, and improves the environment by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and displacing toxic additives in gasoline. Consumers have recently surpassed 1 billion miles driven on the fuel, and it is now available at more than 900 retail sites across 29 states. Drivers are demanding E15, and more retailers are offering it every day.
"However, due to an outdated regulation that hasn't been updated since 1990, gas stations are forced to restrict their sales to flex-fuel vehicles only, or remove it from sale altogether between June 1 and Sept. 15," she continued. "That means that when gas prices are at their peak, consumers are denied the choice of an affordable, cleaner option for their cars.
"A vote against this bill is a vote against consumers—it's saying that you don't trust consumers to make their own choices at the pump," Skor said. "In fact, Growth Energy released a survey showing that U.S. small engine owners are pleased with the performance of their fuel and find it easy to pick the best option, including regular unleaded blends of 10 percent ethanol (E10).
"This legislation is a common-sense fix that has bipartisan support in both the House and Senate," Skor continued. "We applaud the bill's champions in the Senate for keeping the focus where it needs to be—ensuring year-round consumer savings at the pump."

Victorinox & firefighters
About 40 years ago, Victorinox formed its own firefighter crew. We're working with hot steel, therefore fire is a constant danger in our production facility. That's how our deep connection with all firefighters all around the world has grown.
Between fire fighters and Victorinox, bonds have always been deep and abundant. We share a long history in protecting not only our production site but also our valley and we have developed products in close collaboration with these brave people – yet above all we have equal beliefs. Discover the Victorinox firefighters:
Two products have come out of the close collaboration with the firefighters. Victorinox designed the "Rescue Tool", an upgraded Swiss Army Knife conceived for firefighters to be used by firefighters. From this day on, an extensive number of fire services around the world adopted the Rescue Tool as part of their equipment. The other "tool" connecting Victorinox and the firefighters is a watch.
Daniel Betschart, the officer from Victorinox's fire department, says "Time is the enemy of a firefighter. Everything that can help to bring it under control becomes a firefighter's friend". That's why Victorinox chose a timepiece to symbolize this partnership. A watch, but not any kind of watch: the strongest watch on the market. This watch had to withstand 130 ruthless tests, including falling from a three-story building, withstanding the weight of a fire truck, surviving boiling water and a washing machine as well as being frozen into ice – for example. The special I.N.O.X. firefighter edition was sold out within just a few days.
But the I.N.O.X. is still available. One that is especially loved by the firefighters: the I.N.O.X. carbon, withstanding 1,260 °C. If you want to buy it in an authentic setting: Visit Victorinox's Flagship Store in New York. It is located in a disused FDNY fire station. Truly, bonds have been and are deep and abundant.

Simon's crowdfund appeal
Today I went into the Pozible website to add a pledge to Simon Cherriman's crowdfunding appeal. Then I noticed he has used one of my images of him climbing up to an eagle eyrie in Western Australia. That was taken last year and it was a great day out with a great guy. Simon is such an enthusiastic worker, and he works hard at a hard task. He deserves all the help we can give him. His appeal is for five satellite tags which he hopes to attach to wedge-tailed eagles, then follow their movements across Australia. This is all part of his PhD project. Do have a look at his appeal by following the following link:
Than have a look at his websites too, to see what results can be gained from his eagle studies:
and what other conservation work he does:

Warner Brothers
Carson City is one of the best "building the railroad" westerns I've reviewed so far on this blog. And we don't actually see any trains until 65 minutes into the picture!
What sets this film apart is a good story throughout along with dashing Randolph Scott (playing construction troubleshooter Silent Jeff Kincaid) opposite the movie's love interest Lucille Norman (Susan Mitchell). Add Raymond Massey (Big Jack Davis) at his villainous, champagne-soaked best to the mix, and you've got a winner.
Let's watch them build and then operate the railroad from the mines at Virginia City to the state capitol at Carson City, Nevada.
Construction is complete and V&CC railroad #22 whistles off for the first trip along the line.
This picture is loosely based on the building of the Virginia & Truckee Railroad in Nevada.
Someone's been holding up the stagecoach between Carson City and Virginia City. Management in San Francisco is not pleased. It is thought a railroad might be a safer alternative. But…who to build it?
Looking like a tombstone is the arched window at the Central Pacific main offices; The big shots decide Jack Davis is the man for the job.
Randy Scott is fetched from a nearby saloon and shown the route to be taken.
Susan Mitchell (rawr-RAWR!) along with her boyfriend Alan Kincaid (played by Richard Webb) greets Randy on his arrival in Carson City. To further complicate this love triangle, Alan is also Randy's half-brother and Susan still carries the torch of a schoolgirl crush on Randy from 10 years ago. Hot and juicy!
However, Susan's dad (editor of the Carson City Clarion) is an old grump under the thumb of Boss Jack Davis and prints scathing editorials against the upcoming railroad.
Undaunted, Susan trots out to the construction site just as they're setting off some dynamite; Randy gallantly pulls her into a small cave just in time.
Great shot of a rock drill being used in one of the tunnels; Dad's still against the railroad…
Meanwhile, Randy is surveying yet another tunnel.
An unfortunate Mongo lookalike gets buried in a suspicious landslide — set off by Raymond Massey's gang!
Nonetheless, Randy gets the job done and the first train is ready to roll from Carson City to Virginia City. For the rest of the picture, Virginia & Truckee #22, The Inyo, is the star of the show.
Well, this is uncomfortable. Randy Scott cheerfully wishes Alan and Susan well on their journey. Alan looks nonplussed.
Nicely lit view of #22 rolling through a cut; What's this? Raymond Massey is on board. No doubt skulduggery is afoot.
Sure enough, Boss Jack uncouples the coach from the baggage car. Note the link and pin couplers!
Look out Alan, he's got a club! Making a great face, Massey dispatches Alan with the coupling pin. That's gonna leave a mark…; Next, the cad Massey shoots his way into the baggage car.
Hey! Where have I seen these clips before? You guessed correctly if you remembered the F-Troop episode, "Reach For The Sky, Pardner" – which would utilize many scenes from Carson City, 14 years later.
Spectacular smokey shot of #22 through a cut; The bad guys loot the train.
Randy to the rescue!; Striking a heroic pose, Silent Jeff whirls around to shoot down another henchman.
Good detail shot of the baggage car and tender of V&CC #22.
Meanwhile, back in San Francisco, newly-hitched Randy & Lucille board a train and are off to his next assignment.
Out on the rear platform, Jeff and Susan are in the clinch as the credits roll.
This movie was a lot of fun. Definitely a prop-up-your-feet-and-munch-popcorn flick for a rainy day. Raaaaaaaandolph Scott!!! Lindsay says, "Check it out!".
Here's what IMDb has to say about Carson City:

Tofurky-Jack Panini
4 thin slices vegan gourmet Monterey Jack cheese
3 slices Tofurky (deli slices), any flavor
2 slices whole grain bread
Earth Balance margarine
Heat a sauté pan over slightly medium-high, and put in a small pat of Earth Balance. When it sizzles, put in the two slices of bread. When the bread is browned, flip each slice over.
Add the cheese and Tofurky slices on one piece. Place the other piece of bread (browned side down) over the cheese & Tofurky. Press the sandwich down with a plate or something heavy.
Once browned, flip it over and repeat with the other side. You can finish it off under the broiler if the cheese isn't melted enough, or just use a Panini press. You can add pretty much anything, like spicy mustard or some vegan mayo - be creative! Wonderful with some tomato soup!!
I bought a new panini grill, and this was the first sandwich that I made. So delicious! For the bread, I used a hatch chili bread that I picked up from Trader Joe's, which added some great, spicy flavor. I just spread one side of each slice of bread with Earth Balance margarine, and used no additional margarine on the grill. The FYH vegan cheese got nice and gooey and bubbly. If the cheese doesn't seem to be melting, just leave it on the grill a little longer. My panini came out perfectly toasted and crunchy. I'll definitely be making this simple, tasty panini again in the near future.

When the Village of Pemberton (VOP) revealed its Mountain Bike Economic Study at its May 2 meeting, Mayor Mike Richman said he wasn't exactly bowled over by any of the findings revealing that the trails in the area are a hotspot for bikers.
"It confirmed a lot of suspicions more than it surprised me. Mountain biking is obviously growing at a great rate and we're a bit of a mecca for mountain bikers," he said. "It wasn't surprising to hear the level of activity we have."
In the study, which drew data from 210 interviews conducted at three local trailheads last July and August, 77 per cent of riders were from Pemberton, while nine per cent came from outside the province. Though admittedly a small sample size of visitors, the study found same-day riders spent $100 per trip and overnight visitors spent just over $900 per trip. Those staying overnight in Pemberton for the full trip stayed for roughly a week while those spending some nights in Pemberton were there for about four. All told, visitors collectively spent $965,000 while on trips to Pemberton that included mountain biking.
"It proved the importance of mountain biking as an economic driver in the tourism market," Richman said. "It showed me the importance of mountain biking to our local community.
"It definitely brought to light the fact that we want to build the market, so to speak, and increase (Pemberton) as a destination for people to come mountain biking, but also to protect our trails and make sure that our locals have access and that our trails are not abused and overworked."
Richman also said the study will help the VOP when applying for grants for future projects.
He also saluted the volunteers and organizations that help make mountain biking in the community what it is. Richman added that the Pemberton Valley Trails Association (PVTA) receives some of its $10,000 budget each year from the VOP.
"We give them a budget every year that they request depending on what their work plan is and what they set out to accomplish. This year, for instance, there's a big focus on signage. That was something that was identified through the study, that people have a hard time navigating some of the trails because there's a lack of signage," he said.
Richman also noted that it would be prudent to see a few more blue and green trails built to help ease non-expert riders into the sport.
Peter Colapinto, co-owner of Pemberton Bike Co., said the study may have actually understated the sport's impact in the community, explaining the busiest times of year are the spring and fall.
"The numbers were a little bit low compared to what actually goes on up here, but it's a good start," he said.
As the PVTA treasurer and a Tourism Pemberton board member, Colapinto said the study would prove useful in the future.
"It'll definitely help PVTA planning future trails. There was feedback in that survey as well about what people liked and didn't like, and what they wanted to see in the future," he said. "For Tourism Pemberton, it'll help because we have a better idea of who our target markets are and where we have to work harder to attract people."
While the study will help with longer-term projects, Colapinto said completing a trail survey with the Lil'wat Nation is on the PVTA's front burner at the moment.
"We have to get that done before we can do anything else. That's our next big project, getting an integrated trail plan with the various levels of government," he said. "It might help plan our future trails expansion, but for this year at least, we're just concentrating on maintenance and hoping to get the trail plan done."

So, what are essential oils?
Well, they aren't just something to make the room smell good!
Essential oils are the living fluid inside the plant that acts as their immune system. These plant fluids are the regenerating, oxygenating, and immune-strengthening properties of plants. They are necessary for the plant to live and contain vibrational energy that helps to give them therapeutic properties. When these fluids are distilled and extracted using a highly regulated, low-heat, slow-steam process and then used topically, aromatically or internally, they can help bring that vibrational energetic level that is lacking in our bodies back into balance. Essential oils are composed of microscopic molecules that are able to penetrate into the DNA/cellular level of every cell in our body (even crossing the blood-brain barrier) and can help to support our body's natural healing systems.

This was a panel of HAGSA members who were at the 2004 Conference of the American Humanist Association, which was held in Las Vegas, NV, last May. They were Cleo Kocol, Mynga Futrell, Paul Geisert and Beverly Church. President Bill Potts moderated the panel.
Cleo began with a report on the Feminist Caucus. She gave some of the history of the Caucus, mentioning that she herself had started the Humanist Heroine awards. Cleo proposed that HAGSA buy a $25 membership in the Feminist Caucus. Mynga reported that she attended several workshops. Some were quite good but others were poor. She also noticed the poor representation of younger people at the conference. Paul thought the conference was quite well organized. However, he thought the workshop on setting up programs for young people was a disaster. Beverly reported on the seminar on the Grassroots Manual, which was presented by the Chapter Assembly. She described the manual as a work in progress that should be of great use to chapters—both now and as it develops further. Beverly reported that she has been nominated for the Executive Committee of the Chapter Assembly.
At the conclusion of the presentations, Bill Potts ran a videotape he made of the keynote speech given at the AHA conference by the Rev. Barry Lynn of Americans United for Separation of Church and State. Lynn detailed the deliberate, persistent and often under-reported efforts of the current administration to undermine traditional church-state separation in America.

THE PARAMOURS_There She Goes
In the above picture left to right; Mike Reiter, Sal Fasulo, Bill Medley and Don Fiduccia.
In the early sixties, Bill Medley with his guitar-playing friend, Don Fiduccia, formed a vocal group called the Romancers (see above picture). They each wrote a song and made a demo but never recorded.
In 1960 they formed a vocal group named The Paramours with Mike Reiter and Roger Scott. Roger married, left the group, and Sal Fasulo replaced him as tenor.
The Paramours signed a contract with Mercury Records on their subsidiary label Smash Records were recorded in 1961...
-That's The Way We Love/Prison Break.
The A Side a Medley composition have a good local acceptation and the guys have some guest TV appearances and cut this same year another single on the Smash_-Miss Social Climber/Cutie Cutie.
The Paramours at Jon's Black Derby, Santa Ana, CA from left Bobby Hatfield, Don Fiduccia, John Wimber, Angelo Biondo, Bill Medley.
Sal Fasulo left the group and Bobby Hatfield, who was member of another group called The Variations took his place. In 1962 Medley and keyboard player Johnny Wimber of the Paramours got together with Hatfield and recorded to single for Moonglow Records_There She Goes (She's Walking Away) / That's All I Want Tonight.
Also they back up to PENNY RICHARDS in his 1961 Moonglow's single_I'll Be Yours/The Only Way.
Without success the group continued working in clubs but son Bobby and Bill recorded as The Righteous Brothers and the rest, is history.

More information from Paramour's member Don Fiduccia...
In the early sixties, Bill Medley and I formed a duo called the Romancers. We each wrote a song and made a demo on the old disk format called 45's. Sometime later, we formed a quartet named the Paramours by adding Mike Reiter and Roger Scott. Roger married, left the group, and Sal Fasulo replaced him as our tenor. The Paramours signed a contract with Mercury Records on their subsidiary label— Smash Records. Bill was our lead singer, and we recorded a Medley original—That's The Way We Love — The Paramours. The tune didn't hit the charts, but we did have some guest TV appearances. Sal Fasulo left the group and Bobby Hatfield took his place. We recorded another Medley song—There She Goes and continued working clubs as the Paramours. It soon became obvious that Bobby and Bill were destined for greater things. They were a perfect vocal match, so they recorded, as a duo, a Medley original called Latin Lupe Lou. That record launched their careers as the Righteous Brothers.

EQ Vitamin K2 Test Kit
With the help of a simple self-administered device you can quickly receive your serum-concentration of vitamin K2 (MK7). The vitamin K2 "concentration-number" in your blood gives you an indication of your relative risk to develop cardiovascular diseases and/or weak bones.
The blood sample collected on the filter paper in the K2-test device will be extracted and analysed according to international standards for vitamin K2 testing by Vitas AS Laboratory in Oslo, Norway.
Your results will be available on omegaratiotest.com/en after 15 – 20 business days.
This analysis measures serum-concentration levels of vitamin K2 (MK7) in the bloodstream. The concentration-number provides an indication of the relative risk to subsequently develop cardiovascular diseases, weakness in the bones.
The recommended serum-concentration level of vitamin K2 (MK7) in the bloodstream is 5.0 ng/mL or above. A level below 2.0 ng/mL indicates there an elevated risk of developing osteoporosis and cardiovascular diseases.
Research shows* that vitamin K2 inhibits the development of osteoporosis and arterial stiffness. Vitamin K2 facilitates the binding of calcium to the bone matrix and secures the maintenance of strong and healthy bones. Moreover, vitamin K2 facilitates the processes necessary to remove calcium from atherosclerotic plaques and damaged areas in the inner surface of the arterial wall. Maintaining a sufficient serum-concentration level of vitamin K2 is therefore important to protect bone structures and cardiovascular health.
We have designed EQ K2+D3 to ensure a stable serum-concentration level above the recommended 5.0 ng/mL. By consuming the recommended daily dosage on a regular basis, the risk of osteoporosis and cardiovascular events should be reduced by approximately 50%.

Use wealth to fight poverty, says church action group
Britainís leading Christian anti-poverty action group, Church Action on Poverty (CAP), has produced hard-hitting internet resources to provide an opportunity for churches to reflect on one of the most pressing questions facing us as a society: What is the purpose of our prosperity, and how can we find ways to share it more justly?
The material is deliberately timed to coincide with the launch of a major report from Churches Together in Britain and Ireland (CTBI), ëProsperity With A Purposeí, which will be published on 28 February. Media reports indicate that the study will call on the churches to take a more positive approach to wealth creation.
As a nation we are more prosperous than ever before, says Church Action on Poverty, which has a broad base of support and counts Labour MP and prime ministerial ëfaith czarí John Battle as its former chief.
CAP say there are record numbers of millionaires in Britain, record numbers of people in work, and unemployment is at the lowest level it has been for more than 25 years.
Yet, in spite of the governmentís efforts, they point out, there has been only limited success in reducing child deprivation. Over 3 million children continue to live in poverty. In spite of record levels of employment, 70% of people in poverty continue to rely only on state benefits for their income. And in spite of growing equality, almost half of all women have total individual incomes of less than £100 per week.
CAP direct Niall Cooper, who was on the CTBI working party, says that poverty in Britain continues to disproportionately affect members of black and ethnic minority communities, disabled people, older people and those living in the major urban centres.
Cooper quotes famous Christian social thinker R. H. Tawney, once a key figure in the Labour movement: ìWhat thoughtful rich people call the problem of poverty, thoughtful poor people call with equal justice a problem of riches.î
Many churches marked Poverty Action Sunday last weekend (6 February), but many more will be using the Church Action on Poverty materials over the coming months, says Cooper.
The online resources include biblical and theological reflections on the question of wealth and poverty, a subject addressed at greater length in the Hebrew Scriptures and in Jesusí teaching than any other subject.
In past years, Church Action on Poverty has used the Lenten period to encourage more affluent Christians in Britain to try living on the minimum wage for 40 days ñ in order to see what hardship is like, and in order to be able to donate any money saved to anti-poverty action.
CAP is a national membership organisation founded in 1982 as an ecumenical response to poverty in Britain. It has over 1,200 individual and organisational members from all the Christian denominations and beyond.
