In ancient times there must have been a real fear that spring would never return. How many of us feel miserable at that time of year when there is little greenery, cold weather and few fresh food items to be had? It's no wonder that people took what greenery there was into their homes and celebrated the fact that the days were starting to lengthen again. That's the times when gods are created - when things seem to be almost hopeless and the promise of spring is a far way off.
In many ways it's more a book about folklore and history than religion. On our world it's a powerful time for beliefs and it's no wonder that the old Pagan celebrations got somewhat hijacked by Christian beliefs.
Even the toothfairy harks back to a time when people burned there discarded fingernail cuttings and hair - they certainly would have kept their children's teeth safe so that no magic could be used against them.
An interesting review, Q.
Hmm. I wished I could have put more into it, but Hogfather was simply better than Reaper Man and Small Gods. It just needs repeated reading in order to understand the plot better. But I reckon that this is Terry Pratchett's magnum opus. It's easy to see, in retrospect, why Sky chose to adapt this story.
Speaking of the adaptation, I know that some people object to Marc Warren giving Teatime the 'Willy Wonka sing-song' voice, but I actually found it hard to read Hogfather without hearing that voice again. And to be honest, it actually does fit, as Teatime is basically a brilliant and psychopathic manchild.
I've often said that Atlas Shrugged is a piece of shit, and that it being a so-called philosophical novel is no excuse. I feel that Hogfather is what Atlas Shrugged should have been like, in terms of balancing entertainment with actual high concept.

I looked outside the window today and was happy to see we've finally got our spring colors!
I love taking photos of flowers, and usually have a fairly large photo album of seasonal flowers on my computer.
I'd like to see pictures of your flowers and foliage here - pictures of gardens, but specifically the plants. When your beautiful flowers bloom, or your fruit matures, take a picture, and tell us what kind it is and where it is. Kind of like the Day in the Life thread, but different in that it's a specific topic.
I know Tony will see lots of desert blooms in Tucson - hopefully he shoots a few while he's there.

Hi Everyone, I have a spa and I am having trouble with it. I bought it new about 5 years ago and hooked it up and it worked great. I had to disconect it due to a move and I never set it back up. I set it up a week or 2 ago and started it up and it is supposed to go through a purge stage before normal operations. Well it says purge but the pump doesnt turn on. After that I have to press the jets button to make them turn on. then I only have one speed. it also isnt running automaticly when the heat is on. Any ideas would be great. I don't know much about electronic guts so go easy on me.
It could be that one of the wires on the motor got disconnected in the move. You may need to remove the cover off the back of the pump motor to check connection. The black and red wires are for the low speed and high speed on the pump motor. Typically black wire is for low speed which is used for heating.

Thanks for the reply. I was able to trace the power back to the pump using a small tester. When the pump is on low it turns on and runs fine.Power to one wire. Then when I turn the pump on high, Power to both wires, the pump does nothing. I checked the cord and there is power right up to the motor but it doesnt turn on. All theconections are good and tight. Whats my next move? Does the pump need to be replaced or rebuilt?
Yes it sounds like the pump/motor needs to be replaced if you are getting power to it.

what about a pump that hums on low and works just fine on high..???
If you are getting power to both the red and black wires at same time when on high your circuit board relay sounds like it may be stuck. This would be a circuit board issue.

Glen Moray was built on the site of the West Brewery to the west of Elgin on the banks of the River Lossie. Following reconstruction, Glen Moray Distillery was founded in 1897. It was not long before the distillery closed in 1910, though it reopened a couple of years later, shortly before closing once more. In 1920, Macdonald and Muir acquired the distillery and once more spirit flowed from the stills. The distillery operated its own floor maltings, converting to a Saladin Box in 1957, which remained in use until 1978. During the 1970s, the two original stills were replaced and two further stills were added, giving the distillery a total yearly capacity of two million litres. In 1996 Macdonald and Muir Ltd renamed itself Glenmorangie Plc and in 2004 the group was acquired by Louis Vuitton Moët Hennessy, for the princely sum of £300 million. The Glenmorangie distillery pioneered exotic wood finishes and Glen Moray championed white wine finishes, releasing a Chardonnay finish and two Chenin Blanc finishes in 1999. Most of the whisky from Glen Moray has long since been used in blended Scotch. More recently, the Glenmorangie Co decided to cease producing whisky for blending and subsequently, in 2008, the distillery was put up for sale. There are several official house bottlings, but independent bottlings are rather rare.

You don't have to be a kid to enjoy the peppiness of Olivia the Pig. Olivia was originally created by Ian Falconer, who studied art at many prestigious universities such as New York University, the Otis Institute, and Parsons School of Design. He also helped to design sets and costumes with for stage productions in various metropolitan areas with fellow artist David Hockney.
Coincidentally, Ian had a baby niece named Olivia. His first book about Olivia the Pig was intended as a present for his niece. When Anne Schwartz from Simon & Schuster noticed Ian's artwork in the New Yorker, she contacted him about creating a children's book. The rest, as they say, is history.
Olivia herself loves art and music. She even created a one person band by banging around on pots, pans, and various items found around the house. If you are looking for something to do during the holidays, I have provided a link to which you all can have a little bit of musical fun yourselves! The link provides access to a musical game complete with printable stars. Print out the stars, and see for yourself how much fun you and your little one(s) may have!
For even more fun and exciting times, we have toys for the budding little princess at your house. We have tea sets so she can invite her friends over and have a tea party. For babies we have Olivia Lovies, as well as an Olivia Plush Doll, which all ages will truly enjoy.

New(er) Style Tread Links
A friend of mine, John Brost, recently asked me if I had noticed that there were two types of the new tread links out there. Surprise surprise, it seems LEGO has modified the mold slightly. The new tread links will work fine with the old ones - there's no difference in the parts that connect link to link. However, some small new "bumps" on the new treads do change a few things for robot builders. First, they tend to make the side-to-side stability a little better (a good thing). Second, it means that using them "backwards" to form large wheels now works only with still larger diameters. Mixing them in an alternating fashion makes small "old style" (?) tread link wheels work... but you'd have to pay very careful attention to make sure multiple "new style" links aren't adjacent, or you might end up with flat places in your wheels. As to the why for this, it might have been to increase the side-to-side stability, or it might have been to allow better flow in the molds and less rejects due to bubbles (suggested by Bryan Bonahoom, who knows much more about these things).
Now, if they would just come out with a rubber "shoe" for these links...

Sorry for my bad english :(. I've noticed now, that the 8263 Snow groomer the newer tracks has and the 8275 Bulldozer the olders. On the left side, the 8263 treads have a number: 5518. The 8275 treads hav also a number: 57518. Interesting, is it not?

PANAMA CITY— A bill is dead in the Legislature that would have encouraged school districts to let the public to use their recreational facilities through joint-use agreements with local governments.
But the issue is alive and well in Bay County.
Parks and Recreation Advisory Board member Scott Clemo has been pushing for such an agreement for months and now a Bay District Schools official says it's an "awesome idea."
An agreement could open up playgrounds, fields, courts and other facilities to the public to be utilized when school isn't in session — nights, weekends and summers.
For Clemo, the situation is simple — sports fields, whether run by the county or the school district, are all government-owned and taxpayer-funded; thus the public should have every opportunity to use them.
"This is nothing more than an efficiency-in-government exercise," he said.
Clemo said he wants the facilities to be available to local organized sports leagues and for any locals who want a place to play — "anything to get our kids up off the couch."
But it's been slow going to get the idea off the ground. Clemo has talked with his county commissioner, Mike Thomas, who brought the idea up at a commission meeting about a month ago.
Thomas wants Clemo and the school district to hash out its initial feasibility and see if the idea is worth pursuing.
"This is something that we've never even thought was possible before, so looking at it, it's a big step forward," Thomas said.
Once the school district and Clemo have put their collective heads together and decided if it's a venture worth embarking on, then Thomas favors a workshop-type meeting, which would include school board members, county commissioners and Clemo. Such a meeting would allow the parties to find solutions to any concerns and begin to hammer out the agreement.
Thomas said if work gets started now, maybe an agreement could be reached by the end of September, when the county's fiscal year concludes.
Clemo said he hadn't spoken with Thomas recently, but is interested in a workshop-type meeting.
"That would really be just a (meeting to) throw a bunch of ideas out on the table," he said.
Clemo has met with school district officials on two separate occasions and wants to use Deane Bozeman School, located in the unincorporated part of Bay County, as a pilot project for the joint-use agreement. If it works, then the agreement could be extended to other school facilities.
"What I'm looking for is greater utilization of facilities that just lay fallow most of the time," he said.
Clemo also said this isn't a totally new idea either. Schools already rent out their multi-purpose cafeteria buildings to churches, so there's a "mechanism" for third-party use of these facilities already in place. And he noted sports fields are seldom used during the day, so an ideal scenario exists for opening them up on nights, weekends and summers.
But if an agreement were reached, the facilities would need more upkeep and would likely deteriorate faster. So the county would probably need to pay for upkeep or offer in-kind support for the facilities, something Clemo fully endorses.
"It should be a win-win; it shouldn't just be the school district giving," he said.
School district on board
The school district is also on board with Clemo's proposal.
"We actually think it's an awesome idea," said John Haley, the district's executive director of operational support services.
The school district has already been engaged in some field sharing, Haley said. A local soccer program has been using the fields at Northside Elementary for years.
Haley said the district would be "very excited" to open up more fields to the public, adding he thought the county would be willing to offer "assistance" for using the fields. He said rather than financial support, the assistance may come as man-hours and labor.
"It's a win-win for the county and for the school district," Haley said.
Another point of concern is liability. The school district would want to be held "harmless" if the fields were opened to the public or sports leagues, Haley said. That shouldn't be a problem with leagues because they already carry insurance, he said. But in the case of the general public, that may mean the county would cover the liability for accidents during those hours.
Looking forward, the next step is to identify the schools that could participate under a joint-use agreement, Haley said. Elementary schools and middle schools are better suited because their fields aren't used as much as the high schools', he said. And once those particulars are sorted out, representatives from the county and the school district likely would be ready to sort out the details on an agreement.
That would be music to Clemo's ears. The slow progress can be frustrating, but he remains upbeat that his goal will be accomplished.
"It's taken longer than I like, but I know how the wheels of government turn," he said.

A BLAZE of colour filled the heavens above Kendal Castle as scores of unusually-shaped kites were flown during a two-day festival.
Hundreds of people turned out to see the skies above the central town landmark transformed into a kaleidoscope of colour.
The free event saw kites of all descriptions performing aerial acrobatics. There was a 16ft hippopotamus, flying dogs, super-sized fish and many more, all organised by SmileFactor10 and Kendal United Junior Football Club.
Event organiser Craig Harby, who attends kite festivals regularly, said he wanted to bring the joys of the event to his home town.
"I do it for smiles. If you get someone looking at your kite and smiling then that's why you do it really," said Mr Harby. "It's one of those things you either enjoy or not. It's a peaceful thing flying a kite."
Emma Whitanney, of Windermere, who was at the event with her eight-year-old son, Isaac, said: "It's fab for the area to have something like this. It's a really fun family day out."
There was also a Kendal United two-day car boot sale where a selection of kites, air toys, novelties and balloons were available to buy and fly.
Other activities included a bouncy castle, face painting, children's play area and a BMX track.
Proceeds from the kite extravaganza will go towards Kendal's Junior Football Club.
Anyone with photographs from the day should send them to firstname.lastname@example.com for a chance of winning a seven-foot delta flow tail kite.

We sometimes wonder just how much impact VETTE magazine has on people's lives. After all, we're hardly in the same league as, say, Jonas Salk or Louis Pasteur. Nor do we claim to reach out to the millions of Modern Maturity readers. But we do seem to have a loyal group of enthusiasts who are young at heart, and who pick up an occasional pointer from our pages.
Take nervis cook, for example. Cook has been reading VETTE for seven years now, and was bitten by the Corvette bug when some friends let him drive their C5. Trouble is, he has a thing for convertibles, and the Z06 he sought just isn't available in a topless configuration. Then he came across a Z06-style body conversion in VETTE, and he decided to follow suit-sort of.
Cook already owned a juiced-and-blown '90 Corvette, dressed in a custom body kit and dubbed a "poor man's ZR-1." So he's hardly averse to toying with a new toy. He sought out Kevin Woodruff of SLP Performance Parts for some suggestions on how to make an even more personal statement with his 2006 Chevy Corvette C6. Woodruff has a distinct memory of their first encounters:
"I met Nervis a couple years ago at different Corvette events we both attended, from Mid America to Carlisle, and we hit it off," he relates. "He initially wanted a hood to complement his new appearance upgrades to set his Corvette apart from the pack." Then Cook admitted what he really wanted: performance upgrades to go along with the Corvette's now tough image, along with driveability and reliability.
Oh, and one more thing: "He wanted the old-school feel of a 'rumpity-rump' vehicle, as he had in his earlier hot-rodding days."
That's when Woodruff went into high gear, revving up some plans for a packagethat would bring back the good ol' days. He recommended SLP's long-tube headers, high-flow cats, X-style crossover pipe, and exhaust system to provide Cook with the sound he so desired, along with the company's Blackwing Cold-Air Induction system to handle the breathing end. Rounding out the "rumpity-rump" is an SLP camshaft (intake: 0.591-inch lift, 224-degree duration at 0.050; exhaust: 0.600-inch lift, 228-degree duration at 0.050). Other valvetrain mods included chrome-moly pushrods, titanium retainers, and keepers to work in conjunction with the high-lift springs.
While the valve covers claim it's an LS7, that's a bit of embellishment, as it's still a 6.0-liter LS2. Even so, all of the SLP components work together to produce a significant step-up in power and performance. The functional heat-extractor hood is made from an RTM laminate rather than fiberglass, and it features both air vents and water drains. The Blackwing kit uses a low-restriction filter media that pulls air from a full 360-degree radius, and it even has a color indicator to show when it's due to be cleaned and recharged. The four-into-one headers-ceramic coated and measuring 1 3/4 inches at the primaries-feed a pressure-balancing crossover pipe for quicker scavenging, and the certified cats have better-than-stock flow thanks to their reconfigured internal bricks.
To ensure compatibility with the hotter cam specs, SLP worked closely with DiabloSport on custom ECM tuning, wisely choosing to optimize the overall powerband for balanced driveability, not just peak horsepower. All told, the engine now breaks the 500hp mark at the crank, with 470 lb-ft of torque on tap. That's plenty enough beans to bring back the past . . . and then some.
Of course, given the outrageous look and performance of his other ride, Cook wasn't nervous about doing even more. Taking a tip from that article mentioned at the outset, he swapped out the factory panels for Z06 front and rear fenders and fascias. He also bolted on SLP's wing and spoiler, with some help from Steve Smarr. Reed and Chandler Robbins at East Coast Refinishing and Fiberglass in Manassas, Virginia, sprayed on several coats of jet-black hues and airbrushed a 427 logo on the hood.

SPANISH FORK, Utah (ABC 4 Utah) – What started out as a fun day on Utah Lake quickly turned into a life threatening experience Friday for two boats and their passengers.
Friday a wakeboarding boat and its passengers almost didn't make it out of Utah Lake.
"It started raining and everything, it was just so fast like the wind and the waves," said Aaron Garcia, Payson resident.
Around 6:00 p.m. a strong storm picked up on the water, therope to tubes on Garcia's boat got tangled in the propeller, the boat couldn't move, and it started taking on water.
"I saw these guys on the tubes and I knew they were in trouble,"said Chevy Hastings, Spanish Fork resident.
Another party and their boat was also on the water. They stopped and tried to help but they got stuck too.
"We all jumped in the water, tried to push our boat out and we couldn't get our boat out. It was just raining like crazy; it felt like bullets hitting your head the rain was so bad," said RileyMeasom, Springville resident.
It wasn't until the Utah County Search and Rescue showed up that they finally towed the boats out of the lake. Although no one in either boat got hurt, which included several children, men from both boats said it was a frightening experience.
"I was pretty nervous, not for me, I don't care about me , I just care about my kids," said Garcia.
"It was just intense, it felt like 10 days of my life. It was just the most intense thing I've ever seen man. Just glad everybody is alright," said Measom.

This adds a light touch of color either seperately or together (depending on the occasion). It provides a natural hue to my face. I don't feel like I'm wearing make-up with this product. It's light enough to wear while sleeping! I've never woken up from a nap with a rash or breakouts while wearing this blush.

Archive for the 'raimon panikkar' tag
Adieu Raimon, A Dieu
Raimon Panikkar, known to many in this society of Hindu-Christian Studies as a teacher, scholar, mentor, or friend, died at his home in Tavertet, near Barcelona, on August 26, 2010. He was ninety-one and had been in poor health for some time, but he did live to see the day when his Gifford Lectures, originally delivered in Edinburgh in 1989, and over which he had agonized ever since [he produced some nineteen different versions of parts of the texts], finally saw the light of day in June of this year as The Rhythm of Being (Orbis Books).
Panikkar taught and lived in the United States from 1966-1987 and was known to generations of students here and around the world through both his lectures and his many books. What they heard and read were the arresting reflections of a multi-dimensional person, who was simultaneously a philosopher, theologian, mystic, priest and poet.
It was also that combination of personae that made him at times difficult to understand. He was a formidable scholar with doctorates in philosophy, theology, and chemistry and an acquaintance with the worlds of learning and religious reflection in more than a dozen languages. But at heart he was a mystic and a contemplative, who chose at the end of his academic career in 1987 to live in the small mountain village of Tavertet (population 75) in a remote part of the Pyrenees north of Barcelona. Even there he was not easily accessible because he would shut off his phone for half the week. The prayer and meditation room in his house was right next to his study, and he would drift imperceptibly between the two spaces both literally and in consciousness. He once wrote
"Writing, to me, is meditation—that is medicine—and also moderation,
order for this world. Writing, to me, is intellectual life and that in turn
is spiritual existence. The climax of life is, in my opinion, to participate
in the life of the universe, in both the cosmic and divine symphonies to
which even we mortals are invited. It is not only a matter of living but
also of letting life be—this life, offered to us as a gift so that we may
sustain and deepen it." (A Dwelling Place for Wisdom, 79)
He was born the son of an Indian Hindu father and a Spanish Catholic mother on November 3, 1918. He received a conventional Catholic education at a Jesuit high school in Barcelona before launching on his university studies in the natural sciences, philosophy, and theology, first in Barcelona and then in Madrid. Shortly thereafter, the Spanish Civil War broke out, and Panikkar was able to take advantage of his status as the son of a father who was a British citizen to go to the University of Bonn in Germany to continue his studies. When World War II started in 1939, Panikkar returned to Spain and completed the first of his three doctorates, this one in philosophy, at the University of Madrid in 1946.
In late 1954 when he was already 36 Panikkar visited India, the land of his father, for the first time. It proved to be a watershed, a decisive reorientation of his interests and of his theology. He had entered a dramatically new world, religious and cultural, from the Catholic Europe of his youth. The transformation was aided by his meetings and close friendship with three monks, who like him were attempting to live and to incarnate the Christian life in Indian, predominantly Hindu and Buddhist, forms: Jules Monchanin (1895-1957), Henri Le Saux, also known as Swami Abhishiktananda (1910-1973), and Bede Griffiths, the English Benedictine monk (1906-1993). All four of them, in different ways, discovered and cherished the riches and the deep spiritual wisdom of the Indic traditions, and attempted to live out and express their core Christian convictions in Hindu and Buddhist forms. To some extent this multiple belonging was made possible by their embrace of Advaita, the Indic idea of non-dualism, which sees the deep, often hidden, connections between traditions without in any way minimizing the differences between them.
One of Panikkar's many striking sentences looking back on his life's journey asserts: "I left Europe (for India) as a Christian, I discovered I was a Hindu and returned as a Buddhist without ever having ceased to be a Christian." A wealth of meaning lies in that assertion. Christianity in its historical evolution began as a Jewish tradition and then spread to the Greco-Roman world, acquiring along the way Greek and Roman cultural expressions which have given it a certain form and character. Panikkar, having grown up and having been trained in a traditional Catholic and neo-Thomist environment, had a profound knowledge of, and respect for, that tradition. This knowledge prepared him for discussions with some of the great minds of twentieth-century Catholicism: Jean Danielou, Yves Congar, Hans Urs von Balthazar, and others. He was also invited to take part in the Synod of Rome and the Second Vatican Council. But Panikkar did not confuse or conflate historical contingency with spiritual truth. In Hinduism and Buddhism Panikkar found other languages, in addition to Biblical Hebrew, Greek philosophy, and Latin Christianity, to express the core convictions (the kerygma) of the Christian tradition.
That was the main thesis of The Unknown Christ of Hinduism, which Panikkar originally presented as a doctoral thesis to the Lateran University in Rome in 1961, based as it was on a close textual comparison between Thomas Aquinas and Sankara's interpretation of a canonical Hindu scripture, the Brahma-Sutras. Christ and his teaching are not, so Panikkar argues, the monopoly or exclusive property of Christianity seen as a historical religion. Rather, Christ is the universal symbol of divine-human unity, the human face of God. Christianity approaches Christ in a particular and unique way, informed by its own history and spiritual evolution. But Christ vastly transcends Christianity. Panikkar calls the name "Christ" the "Supername," in line with St. Paul's "name above every name" (Phil 2:9), because it is a name that can and must assume other names, like Rama or Krishna or Ishvara.
This theological insight was crucial for Panikkar because it provided the basis of the inter-religious dialogue that he and Abhishiktananda and Bede Griffiths were both advocating and practicing themselves. Far from diluting or in any way watering down core Christian beliefs and practices, such dialogue, in addition to fostering inter-religious understanding and harmony, provided an indispensable medium for deepening the Christian faith. Such dialogue provides an insight and entry point into other, non-Christian names and manifestations of Christ. This was particularly important for Panikkar because together with other Asian theologians he saw how historical Christianity had attempted, especially during its colonial periods, to convert Christ into an imperial God, with a license to conquer and triumph over other Gods. This for Panikkar is the challenge of the post-colonial period inaugurated in the mid-to-late twentieth century and continuing into our present and the future. In his words, "To the third Christian millennium is reserved the task of overcoming a tribal Christology by a Christophany which allows Christians to see the work of Christ everywhere, without assuming that they have a better grasp or a monopoly of that Mystery, which has been revealed to them in a unique way."
Needless-to-say, such striking ideas carefully and rigorously argued and dramatically expressed got the attention of religious thinkers and secular institutions around the world. Panikkar was invited to teach in Rome and then at Harvard (1966-1971) and the University of California, Santa Barbara (1971-1987). He was now, as Leonard Swidler, occupant of the Chair of Catholic Thought at Temple University, called him, "the apostle of inter-faith dialogue and inter-cultural understanding."
In true apostolic fashion, he traveled tirelessly around the world, lecturing, writing, preaching, and conducting retreats. His famous Easter service in his Santa Barbara days would attract visitors from all corners of the globe. Well before dawn they would climb up the mountain near his home in Montecito, meditate quietly in the darkness once they reached the top, and then salute the sun as it arose over the horizon. Panikkar would bless the elements—air, earth, water, and fire—and all the surrounding forms of life—plant, animal, and human—and then celebrate Mass and the Eucharist. It was a profound "cosmotheandric" celebration with the human, cosmic, and divine dimensions of life being affirmed, reverenced, and brought into a deep harmony. The celebration after the formal service at Panikkar's home resembled in some respects the feast of Pentecost as described in the New Testament, where peoples of many tongues engaged in animated conversation.
At the center of these celebrations, retreats, and lectures stood Panikkar himself and his arresting personality. People who heard or encountered him could not help but be struck by this physically small man who in his earlier days was like a cluster of fireworks exploding in an array of shapes and colors. Here is what the great Mexico poet Octavio Paz, who was his country's ambassador to India from 1962-1968, had to say about him:
It is impossible not to recall a Catalan Hindu, both a theologian and
a migratory bird in all climates from Benares to Santa Barbara,
California: Raimundo Panikkar. A man of electric intelligence,
with whom I would spend hours discussing some controversial point
in the Gita or Buddhist sutra—I have never heard anyone attack
the heresy of Buddhism with such furious dialectics as Panikkar
(In Light of India 209).
In later life, his persona managed to combine the dignity of a sage, the profundity of a scholar, the depth of a contemplative, and the warmth and charm of a friend in his effervescent personality. An Australian friend of his, Dr. Meath Conlan, mentions having dinner with him at his home when the phone rang. It was the Pope calling from the Vatican, seeking Panikkar's advice on how best to handle the aftermath caused by his ill-advised remarks about the Prophet Mohammed in his Regensburg Address of 2006.
He is well known to readers of this journal as a great scholar of both the Hindu and Christian traditions and the dialogue between them. The 940 page translation and commentary of the Vedas and the Upanishads, published as The Vedic Experience: Mantramanjari, is a sensitive hermeneutical study that attempts to bring the ancient Vedic world alive as a resource for contemporary celebration. Likewise, his account of Hindu myths in Myth, Faith, and Hermeneutics tries to bring out their deeper cross-cultural philosophical resonance.
Critics, of course, charged him with proffering a Christian interpretation of Hinduism to which his wry response often was that he had a Hindu interpretation of Christianity. The point for Panikkar as a thinker was to move beyond labels and the conventional ideas they carry to deeper spiritual truth. Indeed, one of the main purposes of inter-religious dialogue for Panikkar is the intra-religious dialogue it should spark and the discovery of often hidden treasures in one's own tradition.
Perhaps the most daring of Panikkar's attempts at charting a Hindu-Buddhist-Christian spirituality within a still Christian self-understanding came in his early and path-breaking little book first published in 1970 as The Trinity and World Religions. Here he imposed a Trinitarian structure on Hinduism and an advaitic structure on Christianity, both "trinity and "advaita" being alternative symbols for the cosmotheandric Mystery. Drawing on traditional and unacknowledged, submerged dimensions of the Christian trinity, Panikkar attempted to connect Buddhism with the silent, self-emptying dimension of the Father; Christianity, Judaism and Islam, as religions of the word, with the Son, the incarnate Word; and advaitic Hinduism with the immanent, radically inner dimension of the Spirit. In doing so it was not his purpose imperialistically to provide a Christian grid onto which other traditions could be forced. Rather, taking Christianity as his point of departure, he wanted to show that Christianity has no monopoly on Trinitarian understanding and that such understanding enriched by the contributions of different traditions can in fact deepen and transform all of them.
It is important, however, to balance this account of Panikkar as thinker with the stress he placed on living an authentic life. "My aspiration," he would often say, "does not consist so much in defending my truth, but rather in living it out." As one of his students speaking for many put it, "He integrated intellect, commitment, and practice in a very important and inspirational way for so many of us. Many of our lives and paths have benefitted from his touch."
To cite just one example of that commitment, in September 1994 at the age of 76 Panikkar made a pilgrimage of almost a month to Mount Kailash. He had a weak heart, and the doctors were against it, but Panikkar was determined. Anyone who has been on such a pilgrimage can vouch for its hazards—there are no resources for rescue and hardly any medical amenities. It was in part a fulfillment of a promise to his Hindu, Saivite father. As Panikkar wrote after the expedition
I have always been more inclined to the spiritual pilgrimage. And
yet that memory of a hindu father telling his teen-age son
about Kailasa reverberated in him when the occasion arose to join the
last batch of sadhus the Chinese would allow in 1959. He had then
to renounce by virtue of 'holy' (christian) obedience, and later on
due to other reasons, not the least his heart not supporting high altitudes.
By an inexplicable synchronicity of events he found himself this time
almost led to undertake the pilgrimage which for him was likely to
be not only ultimate but final (Setu ed. Bettina Baeumer, January 1996, 8)
Sixteen years later, Panikkar did indeed embark on a pilgrimage both ultimate and final. May God and the gods grant him rest in the Great Source which he sought with such intensity and single-mindedness during his earthly sojourn.

America's walls have fallen, the hedges have been uprooted too.

Kosher Side Dishes
|Sweet Rice with Orange and Carrots, Shirin Polo
by Reyna Simnegar, Persian Food from the Non-Persian Bride
This is by far my favorite Persian rice. Every time I go to New York, my husband and I make sure to stop at Colbeh. They make the best Shirin Polo!! This is my version of this yummy dish. For the orange peel, simply use a vegetable peeler to peel 2 oranges as if they were apples, leaving behind the white pith. You can eat this orange after you make the rice! With a knife, cut the peel into slivers (1/4-inch x 1/8-inch). For the carrot slivers, buy them at the vegetable department of your regular grocer (who has patience to start cutting carrots into such tiny slivers?) The tadig in this recipe is guaranteed to be a hit and looks beautiful as a garnish around the rice.
For the Rice:
For the Rice Topping:
To Steam and Make Tadig:
To cook the rice and make the topping: Fill a 6-quart nonstick saucepan with 8 cups water. Add oil, salt, and turmeric. Cover and bring to a brisk boil over high heat.
Meanwhile, fill a small saucepan with 2 cups of water, slivered orange peel, carrots, and sugar. Bring to a brisk boil over high heat, reduce the heat to low and simmer for 10 minutes.
When the turmeric water boils, add the rice and continue cooking, uncovered, over medium to high heat, stirring occasionally.
After 3–5 minutes, use a slotted spoon to scoop some grains from the water. Break one grain in half to make sure it is "al dente". Turn off heat and pour rice into the colander to drain; set aside.
Drain the orange peel/carrot mixture. Gently stir the orange-carrot mixture, cinnamon, cardamom, almonds, and pistachios into the rice. Reserve some almonds and pistachios for garnish.
To steam and make tadig: Place the empty 6-quart saucepan back onto the stovetop over medium heat. Add ¼-inch canola oil and 2 tablespoons water. Add turmeric and/or saffron powder. Stir together.
Add potatoes and onions in a single layer. Add the drained rice and shape it into a pyramid.
Cover the pot and cook for 5–7 minutes until rice begins to steam. Uncover and place 2 paper towels (one on top of the other) over the rice. The ends will extend outside the pot. Replace the lid tightly.
Reduce the heat to low and simmer, covered, for 45 minutes. Turn off the heat and tilt the lid until ready to serve.
Serve on a shallow platter, mounding the rice into a pyramid, and garnishing with the tadig.
Yield: 8 servings

Kelly is one of the biggest-selling R&B artists in the world selling over 34 million albums and eight No. 1 albums. Eight of his singles have reached the top spot on Billboard's R&B's chart, and he has had numerous singles reach the top 5 of Billboard's Hot 100 including "Bump n' Grind" and "I Believe I Can Fly." In November, Kelly was named the #1 R&B artist of the past 25 years by Billboard, which was based on actual performance on the weekly Hot R&B/Hip-Hop Songs and Top R&B/Hip-Hop Albums charts from the January 5, 1985 issue to the charts dated November 6, 2010.
Joining Kelly on the "Love Letter" tour are four-time Grammy-nominated, multi-platinum selling singer/songwriter and the star of a top-rated BET reality, Keyshia Cole and six-time Grammy nominated singer/songwriter/producer Marsha Ambrosius, who achieved success as the "Songstress" in the now defunct duo Floetry. Ambrosius released her solo debut album Late Nights & Early Mornings, which entered at #1 on Billboard's R&B Albums chart and #2 on Billboard's Top 200 Albums chart.

Between the stories at Red State and Doug Ross, you can get a pretty full picture of what seems to be going on with Anthony Weiner appearing to be the latest technologiclaly inept congressman to flaunt his marital infidelity via social networking.
Check out those links or you can read the story in a nutshell, pardon the pun (you'll understand in a second), below:
I'm not one to jump to conclusions, but I also don't believe in coincidence. So the only question I have left is what was this moron thinking? Thanks to the same modern technology that busted him, I have my answer.
If the light being shed on this is real, then the DemocRats in Weiner's district better start their engines, because this seat is opening up many years sooner than they anticipated.
The 21 year old girl gives her unbelieveable (not even a little) explanation here.

5 Epic Music Videos With Weddings In Them
Beyonce's wedding dress is for sale! (That's right, it says so right here.) Okay, not hers exactly — it's actually the wedding gown she wore in the music video "Best Thing I Never Had."
And while you may not want to gather inspiration for your big day from cinematic music video moments, I gotta admit they're especially fun to look back on. Here are some of my favorite unforgettable wedding-inspired music videos, from Beyonce (2011) back to Madonna (1984) and everything in between (gotta give love to the '90s)!
Beyonce's "Best Thing I Never Had" Music Video
So we may have never gotten the chance to see Beyonce's actual wedding pictures to Jay-Z, but Bey in a frothy Baracci ball gown running through the grass satiates us enough until the day her pictures do surface!
98 Degrees' "I Do (Cherish You)" Music Video
The '90s and 98 Degrees are pretty much synonymous. This boy band's wedding reenactment reminds us of everything we loved about this group (the abs) and everything we don't miss (the hair gel and frosted tips). The video ends with a funny twist when all the boys realize they shared the same girl who now has a ring on her finger!
Guns N' Roses' "November Rain" Music Video
It doesn't get much more dramatic than the violin and piano intro as the bride walks down the church aisle in a way short dress with a showy garter — and don't even get us started on Axl Rose as the long-haired groom. The video (which won an MTV award for best cinematography) ends with, you guessed it, rain on the wedding day. Rain is supposedly good luck… but be warned, the end gets pretty dark.
Billy Idol's "White Wedding" Music Video
Talk about a flashback to the '80s. We're just glad bleached blonde hair on boys has gone out of style. In this music video Idol attends a target="_new">gothic wedding and the bride is played by his real-life girlfriend at the time! This is not your traditional wedding video– there's black leather and a barbed wire engagement ring.
Madonna's "Like a Virgin" Music Video
Madonna takes it to another level in this music video which made her a provocative star of the '80s for her risque performances. At the 1984 MTV awards she sang the song in wedding white while sitting on a giant wedding cake. This might be one of the the most iconic pop videos — and performances — of all time.

The halfway point of this year's Super Chevy Show series, Spokane County Raceway, boasted one of the most interesting Super Chevy car shows to date. Co-author Calin Head and I both were impressed with the variety of cars to check out in the show field, which made choosing our Editor's Choice show awards that much more difficult.
Along with a great car show, there was hot racing action on the quarter-mile, along with the twists and turns of the Toyo Tires–sponsored autocross course. The Spokane facility looked great, thanks to the hard work of track manager Cindy Gibbs (daughter of NHRA legend Steve Gibbs) and her crew. Spokane recently came under the leadership of Charlie Allen, who also runs Firebird Raceway in Phoenix and gained fame as the track manager of the late Orange County International Raceway in California (site of the first Super Chevy Sunday 30 years ago).
It was a great weekend for a show, and we ended up with more photos than we can publish here in the pages of Super Chevy. But check out superchevy.com for our bonus photo galleries for all the extras.

I made this quilt and pattern a couple of months ago for the November issue of Love Patchwork and Quilting Magazine.
I wanted something that felt a bit Christmas-y without using red and green…so I used different shades of aqua and teal with a few grays thrown in for variety.
This backing and binding fabric are from Joann's, by Patty Young. I love a bold backing to match a simple quilt front and this print is beautiful!
In case you forgot there are only 21 days until Christmas…21 days!!!
I'm so excited…my kids are such fun ages to make cookies and crafts and buy presents for. They are thrilled with anything and it is so.much.fun. Remind me I said that in 3 weeks will you? Thanks. ;)

Barrow baby tragedy family tribute
Last updated at 15:05, Monday, 28 May 2012
THE family of a young mum whose baby daughter died when she was just 18 weeks old are to open a cocktail bar in her memory.
Opal Neale died suddenly in her sleep at her Barrow home in February this year.
Opal's family have now re-opened the Old Bank in Duke Street, Barrow, and plan to turn a section of the pub into a cocktail bar as a tribute to her.
Opal's mum Vicki Neale, 22, said: "The whole family are still getting over it.
"We're just trying to keep busy to try and get over it – that's the easiest thing to do.
"There's a lot of us in the family and we've all said we'll all do it together, because we're doing it for Opal.
"She is the main thing pushing us to do it.''
Miss Neale's brother Matthew is pub licensee, but the whole family, who have never run a pub before, are chipping in to try to make a success of the pub. Miss Neale is sister to Jason, Luke and Ethan, daughter to Lorraine and Stephen, and grand daughter to Margaret and Victor Bewley.
Stephen, Matthew and Margaret featured in the Evening Mail in 2008 when all three were made redundant following the closure of Woolworths in Dalton Road, Barrow.
After hearing of their plight, producers of the Sky One programme Noel's HQ, with Noel Edmonds, featured the family on the show.
At the time, Miss Neale had not long given birth to daughter Luna, now three.
She is also mum to Saffia, 20 months, and all three girls' daughters' names are tattooed on her arms.
Courtesy of the show, Luna was treated to a first-class christening at Chequers Hotel in Dalton.
Miss Neale, a former Thorncliffe School pupil, of Parade Street, Barrow, said her family were touched that friends have offered to help out at the pub for no pay.
She said: "People who we know have said they're going to support us. They've said they will work for free to help us.
"People around here know us and know the reason why we're doing it and they've just offered to help in any way they can."
A tree decoration has been placed on the cocktail bar wall to represent the weeping willow the family have put at Opal's graveside.
Three months after her sudden death, the family are awaiting the inquest which should shed more light on the circumstances in which Opal died.
Miss Bewley said: "It's just one of those things we're having to deal with.
"But luckily I've got my other two girls. They keep me going."

Have your say
Which ever way the Neale family choose to remember and celebrate baby Opal's life is entirely up to them. How people can judge this is beyond me. I can't imagine what this poor family has been through and negativity is something which they do not need.
I wish you all the best and hope your business is a great success
stan how dare you, its not up to you how people deal with loss, people seek attention when they NEED it if you dont like that then Stop reading the news

Style H102956
This short lace up boot comes with that vintage store find thrill due to its worn in style. From the Hush Puppies 1958 collection, Bruno's antiqued tumbled full grain goat leather and distressed burnished suede uppers are a small part of its charm adding leather linings, cushioning and reliable cement construction for support to the list. The durable rubber outsole also has an aged, timeworn look.

This festival is the result of the vision of a group of educators from Ocú who saw the need to formalize the festivals and fairs that their ancestors had celebrated in Ocú ever since the era of Panama's union with Colombia. This important festival was first held in August of 1967, the date when those festivities that had been celebrated since the beginning of the Republic of Panama were first named.
The district of Ocú is located in the province of Herrera, 243 kilometers from Panama City, a trip that takes 3 hours and 10 minutes.
How to arrive
- Bus: From the Albrook Grand Station in Panama City board a bus bound for Chitré. Once in Chitré, transfer to a bus that will take you to Ocú in approximately 30 to 45 minutes.
- Plane: You may fly from the Marcos Gelabert airport in Panama City to the city of Chitré, where you can transfer to a bus headed to the town of Ocú.
- Car: If you wish to make the trip in your own car, take the Pan-American Highway. After passing the checkpoint at Divisa, it will be another 10 to 12 minutes before reaching the town of "Manitos".
What to bring
- Water bottle
- Comfortable clothing
- Camera
- Horseback riding
- Visit the farm fields to see different crops
- Manito Festival
