Letters to the Editor
The Editor:
Just prior to the holidays, I wrote a letter to The Northern Light expressing concern about running on a local road. In my haste, I simply addressed it The Northern Light, Blaine, WA 98230.
The letter was returned marked "Insufficient address to deliver." I now understand that any letter mailed in Blaine goes to Everett for sorting, including mail for addresses in Blaine, which I find surprising. While it was entirely my fault, I do know that all Blaine mail carriers would have known the location of The Northern Light.
I mention this because some time has passed since the incident occurred, about which I was writing. A few days before I wrote this letter, I was driving south on Lincoln Road, early in the morning when it was still pretty dark and I just missed hitting a runner coming from the opposite direction.
As someone who also enjoys running, it is good to see others keeping fit in this manner. However, Lincoln Road is extremely narrow and does not have proper shoulders.
With the lights of an approaching vehicle and the runner not wearing reflective clothing it was very difficult to see him.
I am persevering with sending this letter for publication because I hope it may prevent a terrible tragedy. I would caution against running on Lincoln Road, even in broad daylight. It is hardly wide enough for two large vehicles and, in my view, dangerous even without runners. There are many more desirable and safer roads and paths on which to run in this area.
Sadly, I also understand that any plans to widen Lincoln Road are on indefinite hold.

A few days before Christmas, more than 200 families here in the Blaine area received Christmas dinner boxes through the work dozens of volunteers and the generosity of several local contributors and businesses.
This willing army of helpful children and adults put a complete and nourishing Christmas meal together. It consisted of: An eight-pound ham roast, a gallon of milk, corn, beans, mashed potatoes, three pounds of bananas, pineapple, a fresh loaf of custom baked bread, butter, and a 10-inch pie for dessert.
As well, Totally Chocolate gave generous portions of chocolate and cookies for each family, and 200 large boxes, which were used for distributing the food. Cost Cutter, Great Harvest Bread, and Crazy Dazy gave significant price breaks for purchases.
Seventy-five volunteers worked anywhere from two hours to four days to procure, prepare, and distribute the boxes. The Wolf Den Cub Scouts (Pack 25) assembled and taped the empty boxes to be loaded. Blaine high school Students with a Purpose (SWAP) had a dozen students loading boxes. Two church volunteers obtained bids, procured food, and loaded and stacked over 200 boxes. One couple, Gerald and Sandra Weatherly, coordinated the project starting in early November.
All financial contributors are local and included four individuals, three churches and two businesses. Their gifts ranged from $100 to $2,500. Best of all, here are the number of people who were helped this year with a Christmas Dinner Box: 210 families in the Blaine and Birch Bay area. This included 437 adults and 448 children, for a total of 885 people.
On behalf of the Peace Arch Christian Ministerial Association, we want to thank everyone who made this project possible for the seventh year. We deeply appreciate their concern for the community and their generosity in this practical gift of food for the holiday.

A new lease on life at 140? That's what George, a 140-year-old, 20-pound lobster, is getting, thanks to a restaurant in New York City that recently agreed to send him back to his ocean home. PETA predicts that the trend in lobster liberation will continue. As we learn more about sea animals and how similar they are to us in so many ways, more and more people are having trouble with the idea of putting them on the table.
Like George, lobsters can live to be more than 100 years old, they recognize individual lobsters, remember past acquaintances, have elaborate courtship rituals, and help guide young lobsters across the ocean floor by holding claws in a line that can stretch for many yards. Lobsters can also feel pain, and they suffer immensely when they are cut, broiled, or boiled alive.
You don't have to send a lobster back to sea to make a difference: Just keep these clever crustaceans out of the cooking pot and try healthy vegetarian foods instead.

The Blaine Food Bank would like to take this opportunity to extend our heartfelt gratitude to all those who generously donated their time, their goods and their dollars to our agency over this past holiday season.
Our contributors are too numerous to name however there are two notable exceptions. Firefighters Local #3867 in partnership with North Whatcom Fire & Rescue Service donated over 1,800 pounds when the final tally was complete.
Honorable mention must go to all Blaine's school children from the elementary school to the middle school to the high school (including the music department. and the honor society) because their combined resources totaled more than 3,500 pounds.
Thank you, Blaine, Birch Bay, and Custer for your continuing support to our area's food bank. We couldn't do it without you!

From acclaimed filmmaker Guillermo del Toro comes Warner Bros. Pictures' and Legendary Pictures' sci-fi action adventure "Pacific Rim." When legions of monstrous creatures, known as Kaiju, started rising from the sea, a war began that would take millions of lives and consume humanity's resources for years on end. To combat the giant Kaiju, a special type of weapon was devised: massive robots, called Jaegers, which are controlled simultaneously by two pilots whose minds are locked in a neural bridge. But even the Jaegers are proving nearly defenseless in the face of the relentless Kaiju. On the verge of defeat, the forces defending mankind have no choice but to turn to two unlikely heroes—a washed up former pilot and an untested trainee who are teamed to drive a legendary but seemingly obsolete Jaeger from the past. Together, they stand as mankind's last hope against the mounting apocalypse.

2013 Guide Analysis: "One of the most common genres of storytelling in Japanese anime involves human-controlled giant robots (mechas) battling other giant beings - be it fellow robots, monsters, aliens or angels. Aside from the "Transformers" films, it's an idea that hasn't been widely or explicitly explored in western movies, but it is one rich with potential. An anime like "Neon Genesis Evangelion" not only included large scale action, but was almost impenetrably dense with religious symbolism, philosophical pondering and psychological conflicts.
"Pan's Labyrinth" and "Hellboy" director Guillermo del Toro makes an attempt at it with this $200 million live-action film where soldiers pilot giant robots (Jaegers) in a battle against invading giant monsters (Kaiju) who have mysteriously risen from a trench in the Pacific Ocean. On the verge of defeat and making a last stand, a former pilot (Charlie Hunnam) and an untested trainee (Rinko Kikuchi) must team to drive a legendary, but obsolete Jaeger from the early trials that could be humanity's last hope.
Travis Beacham ("Clash of the Titans," "Killing on Carnival Row") penned the script and del Toro was originally only going to produce. When his long-term dream project - a live-action adaptation of H. P. Lovecraft's "At the Mountains of Madness" - fell apart in 2011, he jumped onboard this as director. The project sports a great cast of talented actors rather than big name stars, including Charlie Hunnam ("Sons of Anarchy"), Idris Elba ("Luther"), Rinko Kikuchi ("Babel"), Charlie Day ("Horrible Bosses") and his regular cohort Ron Perlman. He even scored Ellen McLain, the voice of GLaDOS in the "Portal" games, to play the Jaeger AI.
Shot on Red Epic cameras in Toronto, the film could serve as a potential franchise launcher should the public embrace it. Those who have read the script have raved about it, saying it has far more depth and quality on offer than you would think a giant robot movie could sport. Del Toro has also hired some excellent talents in key roles such as "Game of Thrones" and "Iron Man" composer Ramin Djawadi, and many of the key visual effects people behind the "Pirates of the Caribbean" series, "Real Steel" and the "Star Trek" reboot.
The trailers are visually stunning. To showcase the sheer scale of these creatures, the camera work never displays these monsters completely in one-shot. The environments of the battles are distinct from each other and include real world environmental factors. More importantly, those doing the effects seem to understand something that so many blockbusters seem to forget - the laws of physics. These creatures and fights have mass, momentum, inertia and proper scale. Making sure these are conveyed properly is as important, if not more so, than how elaborate the creature design is. Hopefully this will be one of the Summer's real highlights."

As part of its People's Car Project (PCP) in China, Volkswagen has developed a concept car based on a crowd-sourced idea for an all-electric hover car that it will debut at the Beijing Auto Show.
The car is a two-person city car that hovers above the ground and buy propecia no prescription travels via electromagnetic roadways. The Hover Car looks a lot like a flattened fish bowl with its circular design and large glass panels. Simon Loasby, Head of Design at Volkswagen Group China, said "The creative ideas from the 'People's Car Project' give us a valuable insight into the wishes of Chinese drivers. The trend is towards safe cars that can easily navigate overcrowded roads and have a personal, emotional and exciting design."
Out of 119,000 submitted ideas, the other two picked by Volkswagen to become concept cars were The Music Car, which features OLED lights that create light shows to the driver's music and The Smart Key, which is http://www.artstlouis.org/generic-viagra-usa just what it sounds like -- a car featuring a touchscreen key that provides information on the car's fuel level, security and more.
None of the cialis canada generic cars will go on to become production models, but Volkswagen says they will use the people-designed vehicles to inspire features in future car models. Darn. I really wanted that Hover Car.

- Love this placemkellerVIPDined on 9/26/2014Crow is a favorite of ours. The food is consistently good, the portions are large (often enough to share) and the prices are reasonable. It is not often that you find entrees this good for under $20. The specials add variety to the already changing menu.Special Features:
- What a treat in Seattle!OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/21/2014My husband & I were staying at the Hampton Inn prior to a cruise and they suggested Crow, just a couple of blocks away. We were totally knocked out by the food and service. We sat at the Chef's Counter and loved every minute, watching our food being meticulously prepared and chatting with the Chef who knew his stuff. We shared the bread salad with heirloom tomatoes as a starter and it was delicious. All the while I was watching my perfect piece of Filet Mignon being seasoned and seared and then finished off in the oven at the same time my husband's chicken wrapped in Prosciutto was also cooking in a delectable sauce. Both dishes when finished were gorgeous to look at, but outstanding in taste and tenderness.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Holy CROW!!!!!IssaquahFAVDined on 9/19/2014This neighborhood gem is fabulous. Great drinks, food, and service not to mention reasonability priced. Menu is limited but prepared to perfection.

- JFoodieDined on 8/30/2014I was unhappy with the grilled salmon because it was clearly smoked or cured, and the menu never said so. That said, the chicken wrapped in prosciutto and the lasagna and the beef tenderloin were very well executed. The highlight of the meal, though, was our peach cobbler. To. Die. For. Notable wine list and very nice ambulance. I was pleased overall.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

- Amazing dinner at CrowLillyDined on 8/9/2014This was my 5th time dining here and I have never been disappointed. This time I ordered the lamb chops and they were cooked perfectly and so flavorful. The cous cous on the side with tomatoes, cucumber and feta was also delicious. My husband had the lasagna, which he also really enjoyed.

The chef's were very engaging.The food was outstanding; Grilled lamb chops, perfectly seasoned and cooked, and of course the prosciutto wrapped chicken: best chicken anywhere. Our server knew the menu, and made an excellent wine recommendation. They never disappoint at Crow.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Repeat dining at CrowshamanicmanDined on 7/27/2014This restaurant is a gem- imaginative menu, friendly staff, delicious food, a non-rushed atmosphere.

I will go back often.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Most Excellent!HardtoPleaseSister1VIPDined on 7/25/2014Party of 4 dined early prior to theater. The service, the food, the atmosphere were all excellent. The menu changes with the season and we were impressed x 4! Lovely chilled avocado soup, remarkable salads, sausage with ratatouille, lovely filet, and pasta was unique too...we tried several reds and the lemon custard topped it all off nicely. This is now our neighborhood fav! Thank you all at Crow!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- PerfectUnravelDined on 7/23/2014This little find was a result of leaving the space needle & we were starving. A trip advisor review led us here. The pan seared chicken was perfect! The salmon was superb. S'mores creme brûlée & strawberry shortcake w lemon scented whipped cream also exceeded our expectations.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Hotel recommendationrobbielouDined on 7/20/2014I did a lot of google searching before arriving in Seattle, but none of it revealed Crow. The hotel recommended it and we canceled a prior reservation to dine at Crow instead. Boy are we glad we did. Locally purveyed fare served by pleasant people in a beautiful space and only a short walk from the hotel. Other than getting the salmon special and not the Adam's sausage dish that I ordered everything was perfect. The salmon was exquisite so I didn't mind the mistake.Special Features:
- Summer dining at CrowshamanicmanDined on 7/17/2014warm welcoming restaurant, surprisingly quiet, and very good service.

- Not great....Lizzy8219VIPDined on 7/17/2014I had made a dinner reservation for my family. Our waitress, although she was nice, first night and first table was ours. Let's just say there needed to be more training because she didn't put in one of our orders (although she was nice and comped us a dessert). The food had mixed reviews... Some really loved their dish like the lasagna and some not so much like the salmon special. Overall would not go back given the other great options in seatle.

- Everything was delicious!SEAfoodieMRVIPDined on 6/27/2014A co-worker recommended Crow to me as a place to bring my visiting parents for a Friday night dinner. Had checked out their menu ahead of time online, and though it's quite a small menu everything sounded great, and reviews were awesome! Crow definitely didn't disappoint! We started with the bruschetta, which was a little different but amazing with the Buratta! Personal highlights for me were the beet and goat cheese salad, my New York Strip steak (cooked to perfection!), and Oh My God the s'mores creme brûlée! Will definitely be back, and excited to see what's on the menu next time!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good, but not fabulousToughCustomerDined on 6/27/2014It's an ok restaurant. Just little things that lower itself as compared to its sister restaurant Betty on top of Queen Anne Hill. Food and service are ok, but just not quite as good as Betty. Still damn good though. It's not like you wouldn't get a nice meal. Server was a bit snotty and did a terrible job at upselling liquor. Instead of writing the order down he kept pointing his finger in your face to repeat things. Also he stacked all the dirty dishes on the table, which with a big group, was sort of a gross out in front of that particular guest. I think all it takes is a staff meeting and some scrutiny by management to perk this place up.Special Features:
- Never disappointed!Luv2eatDined on 6/22/2014There's a reason why we come back to the Crow each and every time, month after month, it's because of the great service that we get and the superb food that they prepare.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Open Friday / Weekend Forum
So which news stories / subjects animate you this weekend?
Delaware Republican lawmakers have introduced a pretty sizable package of proposals in response to the Connecticut school shootings. Among other things, they want a "crisis button" installed in each Delaware school to alert law-enforcement about any emergency. State G.O.P. lawmakers would also create a $5 million state fund for school-safety grants; tighten the penalties for people convicted of violent crimes who illegally possess or use a weapon; heighten the consequences for possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony; and expand the crime of "providing a false statement" to include falsely reporting a lost or stolen firearm.
A representative of Governor Markell said these proposals appeared to represent a good-faith effort to address a serious problem and could serve as the basis for constructive discussions. But the Governor's spokeswoman also noted the G.O.P. framework did not incorporate much on gun safety or keeping weapons away from the people who shouldn't have them.
As expected, in his budget address, Governor Markell proposes the extension of tax hikes for corporations and individuals, which were set to disappear in July. But the Governor proposes some cuts as well. (See our stories).
Remember when the U.S. Department of Education mandated equal treatment for women in sports programs (Title IX) at schools, including colleges (which forced some cash-strapped schools to downgrade some men's sports, such as cross-country!)? Now, the Education Department will require educational institutions to include students with disabilities in their athletic programs, or provide equal alternative opportunities. In short, disabled access to interscholastic, intramural, and intercollegiate athletics is a right. But here's the area subject to interpretation: Students with disabilities would NOT be guaranteed spots on competitive teams. It's just that schools could not exclude students with physical limitations IF they could keep up with their counterparts.
Brave exciting step for the nation's disabled students? Or a new regulation which will invite endless litigation and perhaps force the downgrade of certain programs?
Watch out for Bobby Jindal!
The popular Louisiana Republican governor (and all-but-declared candidate for the 2016 Republican Presidential nomination) addressed the Republican National Committee.
From The Associated Press:
CHARLOTTE, N.C. -- "Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal called on the Republican Party to 'stop being the stupid party' on Thursday as G.O.P. leaders promised fundamental changes to help stave off future losses.
In the keynote address at the Republican National Committee's winter meeting, Jindal said the G.O.P. doesn't need to change its values but 'might need to change just about everything else we're doing.'
'We've got to stop being the stupid party. It's time for a new Republican Party that talks like adults', he said. 'We had a number of Republicans damage the brand this year with offensive and bizarre comments. I'm here to say we've had enough of that.'
Jindal, thought to be a potential 2016 Presidential contender, offered little detail in the 25-minute address. He called on conservatives to shift their focus from Capitol Hill number-crunching to 'the place where conservatism thrives -- in the real world beyond the Washington Beltway'..."
NATIONAL JOURNAL's Beth Reinhard raises this question: "Can a fast-talking, brainy policy wonk be elected President?"
The WASHINGTON POST Friday chronicles how Republicans in Virginia and in some other states carried by President Obama - but controlled by Republicans at the state level - are seeking Electoral College changes: No more winner-take-all of a state's electoral votes, but electoral votes apportioned by Congressional district.
From The British tabloid, The SUN:
"Beyonce has been accused of miming the national anthem during President Obama's Inauguration, but she isn't the only one who's been outed for 'faking it'.
Stars including J-Lo and LeAnn Rimes have come out in support of the singer to say miming at a concert is sometimes justifiable.
They claim a lack of rehearsal time, complicated choreography, venue restrictions, and even cold weather affecting vocal cords can all excuse the use of a pre-recorded track..."
From the British paper, DAILY MAIL on line:
"Protesters in Vancouver, Canada, are planning to picket Oprah's appearance in the city because she endorses a face-cream made from baby foreskins.
The billionaire talk-show mogul has called SkinMedica's creams her 'magic fountain of youth' and urged her devoted fans to try it -- at $150 an ounce.
Glen Callender, a Vancouver native who campaigns for 'foreskin awareness', said the endorsement is hypocritical for Oprah -- who has made an issue of stopping female genital mutilations in Africa..."

We should have a 'crisis button' that we could push any time Joe Biden opens his mouth to say something.
The 'crisis button' and other gimmicks from Delaware Republicans is meant to be a distraction from the REAL solution of banning assault weapons. Increasing penalties for people who aren't supposed to have weapons won't have a deterrent effect on crazy people, who aren't thinking rationally before they shoot up a school or a shopping mall.
The only way to prevent these tragedies is to ban assault weapons which you can now buy like candy from the local convenience store. There is no reason to have assault weapons unless you are in the military...or if you're one of these crazy people bent on destruction.
The NRA's extreme position on this means more little kids will die in the future during these shootings. Thanks, NRA.
Since Delaware has a Democratic governor and Democratic leaning legislature, let's hope we can at least pass an assault weapons ban for Delaware.
Fri, Jan 25, 2013 3:51pm
Tea time is correct in his assessment that this is a distraction. A crisis button could have just as easily been a 911 call. One as was made by tens of people when the firing started in Newton. In fact, to get around the uncomfortability of banning assault rifles, the crisis button is really kind of a joke... A "Get Smart" contraption where police officers drinking coffee in their lounge see a red light blinking on the wall...
I would suggest and perhaps Teatime might agree, that perhaps another "Get Smart" contraption could be employed every time Greg Lavelle and the local Republicans begin dodging the assault ban... "The Cone of Silence"
Mike from Delaware
Fri, Jan 25, 2013 5:23pm
A lot of topics Allan has provided:
First off, I agree with Teatime and Kavips on the gun control issue. A panic button?? Most folks have a cellphone, so dialing 911 shouldn't be a big deal. This was done in Newtown, Connecticut. I agree with Governor Markell on this issue.
Next topic: If a handicapped student can compete at the same level as a non-handicapped student (like the Olympic running person who had the artificial leg), then sure, he/she should be able to compete, with no favors granted due to that person's handicap. Otherwise, NO. That's what the Special Olympics is for. Political Correctness again rears its ugly head.
Next topic: Bobby Jindal said: (thanks Allan for the correct spelling) "'We've got to stop being the stupid party. It's time for a new Republican Party that talks like adults', he said. 'We had a number of Republicans damage the brand this year with offensive and bizarre comments. I'm here to say we've had enough of that."
Yes, I totally agree with Governor Jindal. Those knuckleheaded GOP members of Congress who just had to make some truly STUPID comments about Rape should have been thrown under the GOP bus immediately.
Also the head of the ticket, Mitt Romney, who made that STUPID comment about the 47% where he included those folks who've worked their entire lives and now are on Social Security and Medicare as TAKERS!! He's got a lot of nerve. Folks like me, when I retire in 4 1/2 years (Lord willing!) will have paid into the Social Security insurance program (It's NOT an investment program, GOP) for 47 1/2 years. Me and many other Baby Boomers have lived up to our part of the deal and the government had NO problem taking our salaries in taxes all those years, so YES we totally expect Social Security to be there for us in the full manner we were promised.
The biggest problem the GOP has is the so called rank-and-file listen to idiots like elRushbo, Hannity, and yes, Jensen locally, and believe the nonsense these fools speak as Gospel.
GOP: There needs to be balance. There needs to be SOME government programs in our modern society, like Social Security and some sort of health-care plan. You turn people off when you say we want to follow the Constitution as if this were 1787 (Women and Blacks and non-property owners aren't going to buy into that). There's been a bunch of updates to the Constitution, which is a living document, since 1787. IT's that kind of crap that makes folks vote Democratic.
The other thing the GOP needs to realize is that our nation has a "secular" government. So there are going to be issues that the non-Christian public wants like Abortion and Homosexual marriage. The GOP makes a grave mistake trying to pretend its a "Christian Party"; it isn't. Those moral issues the churches deal with as they teach their folks what God's Word says about these things. Once a person comes to Christ and is walking with Christ their hearts will change. The problem is the government is supposed to represents ALL Americans. So even though I personally as a Christian believe homosexuality is a sin, the US government will soon allow gay/lesbian marriage, get over it, it's going to happen. The issue should be, to allow each church to choose on its own without government hassle, etc., whether or not it will perform gay/lesbian marriages without any penalty, etc, from the Federal or state governments.
So yes, Governor Jindal makes an excellent point about the GOP being stupid.
Next topic: Beyonce faking the Star-Spangled Banner, whoops I mean "lip syncing". Sadly she was more concerned with herself sounding good than doing the Star-Spangled Banner. She showed up for the rehearsal with the military band too late to rehearse!!! Right there tells you how unprofessional she is. It's all about her. A real professional would have had his/her butt there ON TIME as those military musicians are some of best top talent in the nation and she essentially dis-respected them, their abilities, and the military, by dissing them. Once again, Hollyweird people think because THEY are famous and wealthy, that they can treat others like dirt. She should be ashamed of herself, but that would require her having some class to realize what she did.
Oprah is using some kind of cream made from foreskins of babies (male or female)? In either case that sounds creepy and disgusting. But then again, Oprah is part of Hollyweird, so she's no better than Beyonce, so not worth wasting any more time or thought discussing.
There's my spin on the topics.

I must admit on the handicap issue my first thoughts were "gee, give me a break... They are handicapped. Don't they understand what handicap means?" Then, I put myself in the shoes of a handicap parent. One who wanted to make his child's life as normal as possible despite the handicap. One who wanted this child to learn the social element that being part of a competitive team provides... One who thought that it wasn't the child's fault he/she had a handicap, so why should that child be denied the right to do something worthwhile, to fulfill his/her dreams?
So from the court's perspective, I can see it's choice. After all, aren't there choices made every day on where to spend athletic money? Why not put some towards a handicap sport, instead of featuring a golf or tennis team? In that regard it made sense. You have the money; it is just a matter of choices. Maybe buy cheaper concession hot-dogs, and put some money into a handicap sports.
As a legal issue, a while ago the ADA made having a handicap not a reason one must accept second-class citizenship. I can agree with that. I find it morally offensive if a veteran returning from a moment of excessive heroics, now confined to a wheelchair, would not be able to enter a restaurant, or hotel because those businesses "didn't want a ramp to their door".
So I can see the wisdom behind it. They are simply saying that as a citizen of the United States of America, you shall have the same opportunities provided everyone else by our government. As a government of the People, for the People, and by the People, we will not say no, simply because it is too much trouble for us to say yes...
It's a little thing to us, but a big one to those not physically as lucky as we. And if you have ever had the privilege to meet one of these children, and understand the bravery with which they face each day, you kind of realize they are much bigger people than you are... They have that effect upon one who gets to know them....

If the Republicans will simply learn that Elvis's birthday is January 8th, not August 16th, they'll be well on their way to winning next time around.

Here's a 3 minute radio commentary that was broadcast by Paul Harvey on ABC Radio in 1965. I think all here will enjoy what he said. It really makes you think. Enjoy.

re: Bobby Jindal: "We've got to stop being the stupid party."
Jindal does not mean that he thinks the Republicans should be the intelligent party; he means that they should stop being stupid in public. Once they get elected, then they can resume being stupid.
This is the man who wrote about witnessing an exorcism, signed a law promoting creationism in Louisiana schools, and promoted vouchers which allow students attending private religious schools to receive public funding. One of these schools designated to receive public funding is the Eternity Christian Academy. According to their website, the school uses the Accelerated Christian Education curriculum, which teaches that evolution is disproved by the Loch Ness monster.

Dunmore: So what?

I read the Jindal article from Slate, thanks for the link.
The problem with Jindal is he's trying to use the Bible in a way that it wasn't designed to be used. He's trying to use it as a Science book. The Bible is NOT a Science book; it is actually a library (The Hebrew word for Bible means library; the Greek word means books). So the Bible is a library of books that God inspired the writers to write in the original language of Hebrew for the Old Testament and Greek for the New Testament. The Bible is God's message to us telling us about his love and his salvation for all mankind through Jesus Christ.
So the Bible is a library of books about faith. So using the Bible for faith, learning about God and his Love for us, etc., etc., and NOT science, is the way to have both Science and the faith of the Bible (both created by God) to work side by side with each other.
Bottom-line is God did the creating; God set it into motion. Frankly, I can accept 6 twenty-four hour days of creation. or 6 million-year days of creation. It doesn't matter; all I know is that GOD did it and he can choose to do it anyway He pleases. Neither causes me to lose my faith.
I believe that God put the Creation account into terms that we could understand, especially 4000 years ago when those words were given to the early Jewish community. From what I've read, the Jews of that day didn't have an issue with - Did God create the world? They already knew that; it was a given. My understanding is the early Jews saw Genesis 1 as a teaching about keeping the Sabbath and that they were to keep it Holy (God worked 6 days creating and rested on the 7th). Really, it has to be 6 twenty-four-hour days? The sun that our day is based wasn't created until the 4th day. Let's not try to force God into a tiny box so that our puny minds can understand.
God created a universe that is Millions of light-years in size. Realize a light-year is how far light will travel in one year. So the nearest star after our Sun is Alpha-Centauri, which is about 4.3 light years away. So light travels at about 186,000 miles per second. Multiply that by 60 to get one minute of travel, multiply that number by 60 to get an hour's travel, then by 24 for a day, and then 365 to get a year. Then by 4.3 to get the distance to the nearest stars after our Sun. You start to get an idea of just how magnificent the Creation of God is.
Should Genesis 1 be taught as Science in public schools? Personally, I don't believe it would hurt the kids any, but rather than give the kids an appreciation of God and His wondrous work, it would probably give those "liberal" anti-faith teachers the opportunity to bash faith, God, and the Bible and to belittle any child who'd be so naive to believe in the Bible. So why bother and put a child through that abuse?
Each parent is supposed to be passing on his/her faith beliefs to their children. It's not the job of the "secular worldly government" to be trying to teach my kids or your kids about our faith in Christ. I'd not want them to teach anything from the Koran in school and I'm certain that Islamic parents don't want the schools to teach the Bible in schools.
My kids were given a strong solid Biblical faith by my wife and I. We didn't need the schools to teach our faith to our kids, and neither should you or anyone else. If that is the case, then I'd question how strong or solid your faith is.
Sorry I have to disagree with Gov. Jindal on this issue.

Mike: I would argue that Governor Jindal is simply trying to do what he can to move government away from being totally anti-God as it has become since Madeline Ohair succeeded in getting prayer or any mention of religion outlawed in school.
While his stance on evolution vs. creationism may be a bit over the top, you must admit we gotta balance it out somehow.

Mrpizza: The problem is we've become a nation of many different beliefs and those with no beliefs. I personally see no problem with Bible reading and saying the Lord's Prayer in public school, as I'd assume you too wouldn't have a problem.
But would you want the kids reading from the Koran, or some Hindu book and then saying a prayer Allah, or a Hindu goddess, or to the "rabbit god", or Mother Earth? THAT's the problem. We wouldn't want our kids participating in such heathen "pagan" activities and those kids parents don't want their kids participating in such Christian "pagan" activities. So if you want your child to have a Christiancentric education where Christ like values are exaulted then your kids need to be in a Christian school or you home school them as my wife did with our youngest son.
The best you're going to get from the "worldly" public school system is a moment of silence, which I believe is the answer.
So even though I would love to see Bible reading and prayer back in the public school, I know its not going to happen. If they did bring a prayer into the school, it would be some wishy-washy generic prayer that that is essentially a bunch of nice platitudes that sound nice that offend no one and aren't directed to the God of creation specifically, but to essentially to whom it may concern.
Ever been to a college graduation? My son graduated from DelTech a couple of years ago, and the chaplin from Dover AFB gave the invocation. THAT's what her prayer was. Its a public forum and all sorts of folks are there, so any "prayer" is going to NOT really be a prayer, so why bother? The moment of silence where your child can have a serious moment of prayer from his/her heart to the God of creation and his Son Jesus Christ will serve your child far better than the "state sanctioned" prayer to nobody.
So I understand Mr. Jindal's ideas and beliefs, but that isn't doable in our pluralistic secular society, nor is it going to win the GOP any elections. Its just a tool the GOP touts every once in a while to help insure the "Christian vote" doesn't forsake the GOP. In other words, the Christians are just being played, because those guys know full well that they'll never get such a bill past Congress, much less past the Supreme Court.

External forces beyond the home, media, school, and community play an important, if somewhat unclear, role in perpetuating the childhood obesity epidemic. (25) According to the Surgeon General, "more research is clearly necessary to fully understand the specific etiology of this crisis" (2).
Poverty and discrimination: Poverty and racial disparities inflame the already serious problem of childhood obesity.
Not surprisingly, lower income families have much more limited choice in eating and exercising than their wealthier counterparts. (26) In fact, high-income markets have much greater sales of fruits and vegetables and lower sales of high-fat, high-sugar foods than low-income markets. (21)
Poorer city residents must also deal with the remnants of the crack cocaine epidemic and "War on Drugs"; amidst violence, drug addiction, the disproportionate incarceration of minority men, and the collapse of inner-city neighborhoods, the vices of fast food and television seem harmless. (25)
Meanwhile, pop culture has used humor to cover up the severity of the obesity epidemic. (25) Rather than sparking nationwide concern and a concerted public health response, the obesity epidemic initially inspired TV shows and movies like Big Momma's House and The Nutty Professor , which depicted obesity not as a serious health concern, but a joking source of entertainment. (25) The end result is uninformed parents who misjudge their children's weight status and misunderstand the health implications of excess weight. (48)
Stress and depression: Stress and depression are rampant in our society. Today, children surrounded by commercialism and materialism suffer from poor body-image, developmental and emotional problems, overweight and obesity, and other eating disorders. (32)
In 1999, almost 21% of U.S. children aged 9-17 had a diagnosable mental or addictive disorder – but fewer than 1 in 5 actually receive medical treatment. (47)
The connection between depression and obesity remains unclear, but studies have shown that women with severe mental illness are at increased risk for obesity as well as cardiovascular, endocrine, and infectious diseases. (49) Chronic obesity (lasting from childhood into adulthood) is associated with psychiatric disorders such as oppositional defiant disorder and depression. (50)
Predictors of childhood overweight and adulthood obesity include parental neglect, poverty, and childhood stress and depression. (30,52)
Pills, pills, pills: Many people have taken up a sort of biological view of life and personal responsibility, attributing behaviors to genes and chemical imbalances, and relying on drugs for instant gratification and quick-and-easy healing. In the context of the obesity epidemic, such searches for a quick-fix produce hinder prevention and treatment efforts, because these efforts require personal and societal commitments to behavioral change – not mass prescription of fat-burning diet pills or increased consumption of "diet products."

The cops' only clue rests with another surgeon, the victim of a nearly identical crime. Two years ago, Dr. Catherine Cordell fought back and killed her attacker before he could complete his assault. Now she hides her fears of intimacy behind a cool and elegant exterior and a well-earned reputation as a top trauma surgeon.
Cordell's careful façade is about to crack as this new killer recreates, with chilling accuracy, the details of Cordell's own ordeal. With every new murder he seems to be taunting her, cutting ever closer, from her hospital to her home. Her only comfort comes from Thomas Moore, the detective assigned to the case. But even Moore cannot protect Cordell from a brilliant hunter who somehow understands - and savors - the secret fears of every woman he kills.

Grabbed me by the throat and didn't let go. (Tami Hoag)
"The Surgeon"
I thought it was the unabridged version at first then realized it was not. It as good as an abridgement can be, bad like all abridgments is seriously lacking. My suggestion is to find a unabridged version or read the book otherwise you miss so much the story does not make sense.
"The Surgeon"
I love a good mystery and this one will keep you on the edge of your seat! I'm only half way through, but wanted to stay up last night to listen to it - had to work today, but have not been able to get my mind off of it. Hurry up 5 o'clock!
"Heart-pounding, up all night suspense!"
This book kept me awake for hours- it is one of her best! It has excellent narration- I just couldn't turn it off.
"She's becoming more popular everyday"
This is the second book of Gerritsen's I actually read. It was extremely suspenseful! I had a hard time putting either of her books down. I'm a RN, but don't think medical background is necessary to love her writing. If you like intense medical thrillers, this book & Bloodstream are worth the time.
"A great Beginning"
I love Tess's books.
I read them all and listen to them all.
I love her flow and characters.
She is great and as an Anesthesiologist, I love her ideas and true medical information.
"Couldn't stop listening"
This was a great book! I kept finding myself staying in my car to find out what happened next. It was suspenseful and well thought out. If you liked Silence of the Lambs, you'll love this novel.
"a good thriller"
This is a good thriller that is not predictable. Is is bloody and gross and exciting. It will keep you wanting to listen to more. I didn't find it quite as fabulous as the other reviewers but, it is definetly worth listening to.
"Good book, but...."
When I read that Angie Harmon would play Rizzoli in a TNT version of Rizzoli & Isles this fall, I thought I would try to read the source novels. This was an intereting crime novel, but for me, far to gory, bloody and shows torture in clinical detail. Not my cup of tea, and I'm not even remotely interested in going forward to the other novels in the series. Great for those interested in that kind of thing though!
"Cutting Edge"
This audio book is excellent despite the fact that it is abridged. The roller coaster ride and spine chilling suspense packed into only 5 hours makes this story hard to put down. Gerritsen takes us into the mind of the killer, skillfully crafting the bizarre viewpoint of life and the murders. Plenty of twists and turns, The Surgeon, delivers a peek into the mind of a perverse hunter, the prey he hunts, and the cops who are hot on the trail. A brilliant prequel to The Apprentice, where this captivating story continues.
I love excitement and relaxation. I love reading and playing games and spending time with my family
"too mundane"
I was very disappointed in this book. there was a few parts that was getting exciting then let me down. I tried listening to it again and just couldn't. maybe it was the reader that did not make it interesting or just the book itself. I could not finish something that could not capture me. and it seemed like it would skip from one story to the next and felt a bit lost.

Some thoughts from the NHL on TSN on Tuesday night:
If you're a fan of the Vancouver Canucks you aren't going to be inspired at all, but if you are a fan of playoff hockey you can't help but be inspired by what Duncan Keith did in Tuesday's game.
At the 5:37 mark of the first period he had a shift where he kind of lost his mind. He interfered with Raffi Torres and could have received a minor penalty on that play, followed that up by taking a cross checking penalty, and, based on his actions, could have received six minutes in total.
He goes to the penalty box and everyone is talking about how undisciplined he was and with your head you can agree with that thought.
It's more of a Braveheart moment if you look at it with your heart or you're a fan of the Blackhawks. He was so intent to go after Torres and send the message that his team is mad and they aren't going to take what he did to Brent Seabrook lying down.
It could have blown up in their face with a bunch of penalties and a powerplay goal, but it didn't, and when he scored and did the triple whirl on the fist pump it was a great playoff moment. Keith is a leader.
Sharks a much deeper team this year
4-0 lead for the Los Angeles Kings in Game Three, and the San Jose Sharks are nowhere to be found.
They're saying 'Patrick Marleau, Joe Thornton, Dan Boyle have zero points in the series and are minus players. Dany Heatley hasn't scored since the first minute of the first game. Same old Sharks, they're not going to get it done.'
But then they get a goal: Thornton wins the faceoff, Boyle gets a nice slap pass, puts it over to Marleau, and the next thing you know they are on the board.
But the reason these Sharks are different is what we saw the rest of the way. And that is Ryane Clowe with two goals, that is Logan Couture, that is Joe Pavelski. They've got so many more weapons now that they're not a one-dimensional team.
But when things are going bad, there isn't anybody in the world who doesn't look right away and say 'What does Thornton have, what does Heatley have, what does Marleau have and what does Boyle have' and until that goal, they had nothing.
The little things that win hockey games
Faceoffs. Heading into overtime they were decidedly in favour of the San Jose Sharks. In fact they've been killing the Los Angeles Kings at the faceoff circle for most of this game. Offensive zone, defensive zone, it doesn't matter.
Joe Pavelski is 78 percent in the offensive zone, 75 percent in the neutral zone. Joe Thornton 57 percent in the offensive zone, 90 percent in the neutral zone.
All the way down the line they are a much better faceoff team than the Kings. They're deeper at centre.

Thinking of refinancing? Read this first
You could actually pay more in total interest under a refi than you would just sticking with your original loan.
This post comes from partner blog The Dough Roller.
With mortgage rates near historic lows, we've been looking into refinancing our home loan. We have 24 years left on a 30-year fixed-rate mortgage at 5.625%. I called Wells Fargo and, for what's called a super conforming loan, we can refinance down to 5% for 30 years. So, should I refinance or not?
- Video: How to buy a foreclosure
The answer to that question generally involves calculating how much you'll save each month if you refinance your mortgage. With the monthly savings in hand, you can then divide that number into the cost of refinancing to determine how many months it will take you to recoup the cost. If you plan to stay in your home at least that long, then refinancing is worth the cost.
There are two big problems with this analysis, which we'll cover in a minute. But first, let's look at an example.
We'll assume that we took out a 30-year fixed-rate home loan six years ago in the principal amount of $250,000. We'll also assume that we can refinance down to 5% for 30 years with total closing costs (excluding prepaid items like insurance and taxes) of $4,000. Using my favorite mortgage calculator, we can determine the following about the loan payments under the original mortgage, the current balance, and the loan payments if we refinance (numbers are approximate):
- Original principal and interest monthly payment: $1,500.
- Principal balance after six years: $228,500.
- New principal and interest monthly payment: $1,250 (assumes we refinance the remaining balance on the mortgage plus the closing costs).
- Monthly savings: $250.
- Time to recoup costs: 16 months ($4,000/$250).
At first glance, if you plan to stay in the home at least 16 months, refinancing would seem like the right choice. There are, however, two problems with this analysis: taxes and time.
Tax consequences of refinancing
Because mortgage interest is deductible from state and federal income tax, we must factor in the effect of refinancing on our tax liability. Of course, if you do not itemize your taxes, and therefore do not take advantage of the mortgage interest deduction, then you don't need to worry about this adjustment. But for those who do itemize, you should adjust your monthly savings for the increased tax liability that will result from paying less interest.
Given a current balance of $228,500, we know that in year seven of our current mortgage we would pay approximately $13,500 in interest. Under the refinance, the interest payments would drop to $11,500 ($232,500 x 5%) in the first year of the loan. Thus, the refi would result in our paying $2,000 less in interest during the first year of the new mortgage. Assuming a combined state and federal marginal tax rate of 25% (your tax bracket may vary, of course), we can estimate that our tax liability will go up $500 in year one as a result of the refinance.
Thus, our monthly savings initially calculated as $250 a month decreases to about $210 per month. And that results in the time to recoup our closing costs moving from 16 months as originally calculated to 19 months. Maybe not a deal-breaker, although it could be with larger mortgages or higher tax brackets. Either way, it's important to consider taxes when deciding whether to refinance a mortgage.
Effect of extending term of loan
We now need to look at the effect of extending our current mortgage balance out over 30 years. Recall that under the existing mortgage, we have only 24 years left on the loan. As a result, some of our reduced monthly payment comes not from interest savings, but rather from lower principal payments because of the longer term.
While this may come as a shock, under the refinance scenario above you would actually pay more in total interest under the refi than you would just sticking with your original loan. That may seem counterintuitive given that the interest rate is going down by 1%, but extending the loan back over 30 years results in more interest payments. Let's do a quick comparison:
Original mortgage
Refinance to 5% and extend term to 30 years
Refinance to 5% but keep term to 24 years
Current balance (excluding closing costs of refinance)
Interest rate
Total interest paid over life of loan
Notice that although we lower the interest rate to 5%, our total interest payments go up when the loan is extended back over 30 years. Now, this doesn't mean that refinancing to 5% for 30 years is a bad decision. But it does mean that you should consider your options, which include the following:
- Refinance to 30 years to benefit from lower payments, but recognize that the total interest you pay will be more than if you didn't refinance at all.
- Refinance to 30 years, but pay extra on the monthly mortgage so that you'll pay the loan off in 24 years. You'll still have a monthly payment less than your current home loan, and you won't pay the extra interest.
The key here is to make an informed decision about refinancing your mortgage. Recognize that factors beyond the interest rate will affect how your monthly payment will change (taxes and term). Also, the above analysis assumes that you are refinancing from one fixed loan to another. You may want to refinance to get out of a variable-rate loan, which is often a wise decision. Either way, don't let the current mortgage rates pass you by if refinancing your mortgage could help save you money.

Malmö Museer
Various museums in and around Malmöhus Slott make up the Malmö Museer. There are cafe-restaurants inside all the museums Inside the castle, the intriguing aquarium has a nocturnal hall wriggling with everything from bats to electric eels, and local swimmers like cod and pike. It's associated with the Naturmuseum (Natural History Museum).
