Police were searching a man at a security checkpoint outside a concert hall when he detonated the explosives. Russia's Interfax news agency reports that the police blocked the bomber from entering the venue. After two separatist wars in the 1990s, Chechnya has become more stable under pro-Kremlin leader, Ramzan Kadyrov, whose birthday...Read complete article© Voice of America - Sunday, October 5, 2014

A battery monitoring utility for portable computers
A battery monitoring utility for portable computers, intended to provide you with all the battery data, to help prolong its life and save its energy. It shows you the evolution of the battery's capacity during the charge / discharge cycles and computes a few important battery parameters, such as the Wear level and Discharge Cycles count. It features a new battery Calibration, Fast Discharge and Green mode functions. This program continuously reads the battery data, making a prediction for the time remaining. Two alarms, for low / critical battery capacity, can be triggered by either values of time remaining or capacity percentage you set. The battery capacity evolution can be graphically displayed for up to 16 hours period of time.
Smarter battery can monitor your laptop battery behavior, showing its real wear. It also features a good Calibration procedure, along with a Fast discharge function. The extended graphical representation can be very intuitive and it helps you to analyze the battery capacity evolution. A battery gadget, with many format options, is displayed by this utility and offers you a fast, clear view to the current battery state.
This utility is recommended for laptop or tablet owners (personal use), willing to keep accurate the battery information, to maximize the battery life and its performance.

10 Apps & Sites That Bring Back the Joy of Reading
(Page 6 of 11)
A direct competitor of Readability and Instapaper, Read It Later is a San Francisco-based startup founded by Nate Weiner that provides a variety of tools for saving articles you find on the Web and reading them later, on almost any device. You put articles into your queue by clicking on a browser bookmarklet, or by selecting the Read It Later function built into Flipboard, Zite, and more than 250 other apps. You access your queue using the browser version of Read It Later or the native Read It Later apps for the iPhone and iPad, Amazon's Kindle Fire, or Android smartphones and tablets.
That's the whole story. Because it offers native apps for so many devices, Read It Later is unquestionably the most full-service of all the minimalist reading apps. So the choice between Readability, Instapaper, and Read It Later comes down to which devices and services you use most, as well as your design preferences. I'd say Readability is the most elegant of the three systems, Instapaper is the most geek-friendly, and Read It Later is somewhere in between. As far as I know, Read It Later is the only player in this niche that has collected a substantial amount of venture funding—$2.5 million from Founder Collective, Foundation Capital, Baseline Ventures, and Google Ventures.
[Update 5/25/12: In April 2012, Read It Later rebranded itself as Pocket and released a redesigned app that's much more visually snazzy. See my interview with Nate Weiner.]
Next app: Reader and Reading List in Safari.

BRIAN WATT: California is going green . . . or at least, greener. The state legislature has hammered out a landmark deal with Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger. California would be the first state to cap green-house gas emissions. Carbon emissions in the year 2020 would match those from the year 1990. Marketplace's Jeff Tyler has more.
JEFF TYLER: The Global Warming Solutions Act has been described by the Sierra Club California's Bill Magavern as . . .
BILL MAGAVERN: ". . . the most important global warming law passed in the United States."(:04)
The challenge of cutting emissions, Magavern says, could spur innovation in . . .
MAGAVERN:". . . new clean technologies that could be developed in California, and then exported to the rest of the world."
But Vincent Sollito with the California Chamber of Commerce predicts the emissions cap will hurt the economy.
VINCENT SOLLITO:"Raising energy costs to consumers and businesses, which in turn will raise consumer costs, consumer pricing, and frankly, chase jobs and businesses out of California."
He says California can't solve a global problem all alone.
But considering that the state is the 12th largest carbon emitter in the world, proponents argue that it's only fitting that California should set an example for the rest of the country.
I'm Jeff Tyler for Marketplace.

From Death to Life
Posted on Monday, March 20, 2017 by Bro_D
Ephesians 2:1 "And you were dead in the trespasses and sins..."
What a reminder! Paul says I was a "living corpse" -- the total depth of depravity, up walking around ---- YUCK! A corpse cannot sense a single thing --- Albert Barnes notes this about our condition outside of Christ...
It sees not, and hears not, and feels not. The sound of music, and the voice of friendship and of alarm, do not arouse it. The rose and the lily breathe forth their fragrance around it, but the corpse perceives it not. The world is busy and active around it, but it is unconscious of it all. It sees no beauty in the landscape; hears not the voice of a friend; looks not upon the glorious sun and stars; and is unaffected by the running stream and the rolling ocean. So with the sinner in regard to the spiritual and eternal world. He sees no beauty in religion; he hears not the call of God; he is unaffected by the dying love of the Saviour; and he has no interest in eternal realities. In all these he feels no more concern, and sees no more beauty, than a dead man does in the world around him. Such is, in "fact," the condition of a sinful world. There is, indeed, life, and energy, and motion. There are vast plans and projects, and the world is intensely active. But in regard to religion, all is dead. The sinner sees no beauty there; and no human power can arouse him to act for God, anymore than human power can rouse the sleeping dead, or open the sightless eyeballs on the light of day. The same power is needed in the conversion of a sinner which is needed in raising the dead; and one and the other alike demonstrate the omnipotence of him who can do it.
That is a darn good description of our world today. BUT ...... it is not a description of the one who has been born-again --- PRAISE GOD! Look at what Paul tells the church next ...
Ephesians 2:4-5 But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, (5) even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved—
ALIVE = NOT A CORPSE! ALIVE means we see -- not with our eyes but His. Alive means we hear Him speak. Alive means we are blessed with every Spiritual blessing in the realms of Heaven. Alive means eternally & abundantly. Alive by the power of His Spirit. Alive WITH CHRIST! Alive means we have been raised with Him. Alive means we will reign with Him. Alive means we share with His sufferings. Alive means we are more than conquerors. Alive means are always led in a triumphant parade. Alive is NOT DEAD!
Alive means ....
1 Peter 2:9 But you are a chosen race, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people for his own possession, that you may proclaim the excellencies of him who called you out of darkness into his marvelous light.
Recently, our prayer team at FBCO led by Bob & Peggy Mulkey have challenged us to take 5 minutes out of each day and simply praise God ---- IF you are struggling to find something to praise Him about --- think about this ---- You were dead in your trespasses & sins, BUT He made you alive together with Christ --- If you ain't dead --- YOU GOTTA WHOLE LOT OF PRAISING TO DO!

Welcome to hubpages! You've got a great set of hubs going, showing lots of expertise. I'm curious to see the hub you'll write to answer this question =)
sort by best latest
BizGenGirl. Thank you so much for your interest in my hub pages. While not an expert in the holistic approach method, I felt challenged to write a hub answering your question. After doing some research, I came to the conclusion that I would be doing the online community a disservice by writing on this topic.
As much as I wanted to step up to the challenge to prove myself, I can't lol. I have attached a link to an article I found very helpful. Please feel free to ask any more questions as I do love the subject of recovery as a whole. Sorry I could not be of more help to you.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
BizGenGirl, I'm very interested in the question that you raise. I had an uncle who was an alcoholic. And I had a wake-up call several years ago.
I'd read about the putative health benefits of a glass of red wine with supper. I tried it, and enjoyed it. After several months of having a nightly glass of wine, I felt like having a second glass. Eventually, I had a jones for half a bottle per night. Then my inner voice chimed in, "Hey, wait a minute!"
I was never a real alcoholic, but I felt that I was at risk. Since that epiphany, I've tried to be more mindful of how food, exercise, and everything else affects my well being in general--including my tolerance for alcohol.
At the moment, the idea of having a drink is slightly repulsive. And I have a good idea why.
As a person with Sensory Integration Dysfunction, I've found that my continually evolving Sensory Diet has been very helpful, in many ways. By the way, the touchy-feely, New Age, shotgun approach is meaningless for me.
If I wanted to get together with a friend for a drink tomorrow (which I haven't done for a long time), I know what steps I could take in order to tolerate the alcohol. Again, I'm not an alcoholic, and I'm not on any kind of bandwagon.
I'd like to have some kind of forum where I could discuss what works for me, as an at-risk non-alcoholic, and see if I can be helpful to people who are less fortunate than I am, in that respect.

I went to my 2nd jays game of the season this past Saturday and headed out to the 'bleachers', where I tend to watch most games now. I was about to order my go-to beer and I noticed two different coloured shock tops, in addition to the regular one, I was excited to find out what these were. Turns out, shock top now offers a lemon shandy and a raspberry wheat.
At this game, I tried the lemon shandy, save the raspberry for next time. I've enjoyed shandies in the past and this was no different. Last summer when I wanted a shandy, I'd have the ricards version, this one wasn't as sweet as that one, so you could likely drink more of them if sweetness is not your thing. I would have enjoyed this beer if they had of opened the roof (it was beautiful, I still can't believe it was cold), but I'd definitely have this again the next time I want a shandy.
Have you tried either of the new shock tops?
1 Comment on thirsty thursday: shock top's lemon shandy
The raspberry one sounds interesting! I've always been loyal to orange though!

Pakistan Palestine Sufism and Terrorism
Pakistan Palestine Sufism and Terrorism
The star (*) represents more information can be found in references and notes. This blog with following topics is concerned with select Op-eds of Pakistani scholars.
- International Political Opportunists
- Hate and Intolerance
- Palestine State and Khilafat Movement
- South Asia Developments
- Death of Humanism
- Hopes for Future
- References and Notes for Islamic History
International Political Opportunists
Irfan Husain a respected Pakistani Op-ed writer in defense of a case for Palestine state presented interesting arguments based on select history to counter the firestorm ignited by a flame thrower and a want-to-be GOP nominee, American Newt Gingrich. Prof Gingrich had recently claimed that Palestinians were invented people. Before Mr Gingrich's claim, Mr. Zuhair Mohsen stated that "The Palestinian people do not exist."*
Here are some factors and questions to consider:
- Prof Husain may have been hinting for a UN mandate for establishingPalestine.
- Prof Husain may not remember statements of Mr. Zuhair Mohsen, a member of the PLO Executive Committee given to a news paper in March 1977.
- Demand for the UN mandatedPalestinemay catalyze a demand for a Khilafat.
- Prof Gingrich has a "take-no-prisoners" approach to politics. Prof Gingrich is for power using the ugly politics.
- A question I have for Mr Husain is why restrict history to the period of the Ottoman Empire (1299 – 1923) to stake a claim of statehood of Palestine for Arab farmers and ignore history of the Jewish state ruled by the Herod the Great (37 – 4 BCE)?
- Why not consider history for at least 2,000 or may be 5,000+ years to be fair to non-Islamic faith followers?
- Muslims have staked claims to many lands outsides deserts ofSaudi Arabia, the land of birth of Islam.
- Muslims built several empires starting 7th century.
- A brief history of Muslim Empires is reviewed in references and notes.
Muslims in 20thcentury were 50+% in some areas of theIndus delta as a result of the land grabs of past 14 centuries. Partitioning ofIndia was agreed to by three leaderships: the Muslim,India's Congress Party and the British.Pakistan was carved out of theBritish India by the Raj rulers.
Hate and Intolerance
The creation of states based on religion is fueling the faith based hate and intolerance as well as political opportunism. It has added another twist for Muslims staking claims for nationhood to spread Islam. Most of the minorities of Pakistanin last 64 years have either fled to Indiaor were forced to converted to Islam. What is happening to minorities in Pakistanhas also happened in the Mughal Empire (1526 – 1764) and prior to that (10th to 16th centuries) in Muslim occupied lands ofIndia.
History is clear that Jews were persecuted by the politically motivated Romans from 100 BC to 500 AD before and after they converted (3rd century) to Roman Catholicism. The holocaust of 20th century is fresh in our minds. Jews were (6th century onwards) and continue to be persecuted in Muslim lands as well.
Once Jews became subjects of European and Muslim occupiers of Jewish lands they dispersed and prospered everywhere they settled by being entrepreneurs to generate wealth that the Muslims and Christians rulers of the land coveted for.
Palestine State and Khilafat
Unlike most international political opportunists including Newt Gingrich the Pakistani Op-ed writers for Arab causes ignore history that Jews in thekingdomofHerodthe Great ruled Judea and most if not all of what is now known asPalestine. Such politicians inflame international public opinions from time to time.
Unlike creation ofPakistanthe the creation ofIsraelwas mandated by the UN resolution. Arabs for long time refused to accept existence ofIsrael. Religion is the basis used to demand of the UN for establishment of a Muslim Palestine next toIsrael.
Establishment of Palestine has potentially unacceptable international consequences from the world view of theUSand West. Such a development may potentially catalyze a possibility ofPalestinestate serving as a precursor for reassembling theOttoman Empire. Remember the Khilafat Movement of 1918 – 24?
A PLO leader Mr. Zuhair Mohsen has already stated that oncePalestineis agreed to, next step will be the integration with Jordon. What next? Isn't precursor a step to reestablish a Caliphate by combining all states that were carved out of theOttoman Empirein 1923? What is a likely hood of the UN agreeing to such a potentially unacceptable possibility?
A new development is the Arab Spring of 2010 – 11; it is introducing youth movements for transformational reforming of political Islam in 6 of 57 OIC (Organization of Islamic Communities) states. Political Islam as we know it is facing internal struggles for change.
South Asia Developments
Many Pakistani journalist who believe that the army can do no wrong indulge in revisionist history. In a commentary Mr A. Cowasjee has as usual tried to report factual history that many Pakistanis, especially those who believe that the army can do no wrong prefer not to remember. These are not the Muslims who believe and were raised in Sufi (Barelvi) traditions.
In this age of information technology and search engines many Op-eds in Pakistani media have appeared that did not accurately quote what Cowasjee reported. In the 1971 war of liberation ofBangladesh, Cowasjee quoted, "79,700 regular Pakistani soldiers and paramilitary troops were prisoners of war in Indian hands, together with 12,500 civilians. Thirteen hundred men were lost in battle." Expecting such people to remember history is futile.
Not many Pakistanis want to remember what Cowasjee quoted from the instrument of surrender signed by Lieutenant-General J.S. Aurora (representingIndia) and General A.A.K. Niazi (the commander of thePakistanforces inEast Pakistan) at Ramna race course at one minute past five in the afternoon of Dec 16, 1971.
Pakistan as long as it is aided by one to three patrons (Arabs, the US and China), in all likely hood will continue as an internationally recognized promoter of terrorism and the army controlled ISI to be responsible for justifying terrorism using manufactured facts (Michael Krepon, Dawn, Dec 18). Terrorism starting 1990 led to perpetual wars of present day to replace the Cold War of 20th century. The nuclear deterrence ofPakistan has embolden its army to use proxy wars to continue its thrust for a regional empire and to exploit opportunities by its three patrons.
Death of Humanism
Not every Pakistani is happy with the political situation judging from articles such as one by Prof Ishtiaq Ahmed. Prof Ahmed resorted to a revisionist history to recall wide spread practices of the Sufi traditions in theBritish India. Some of what he didn't report follows.
Pakistani Punjab is a fusion of two regions. North is Pothohar and south is Saraiki. Sufis dominated south and martial Rajputs descendent are Pothohar Muslims. In the occupied lands Rajputs converted to Islam to continue to be appointed as surrogates of Islamic invaders from the Asia Minor (Persia–Tajikistan). In some respect it is parallel to the Jewish subjugation by Romans about 2,000 years ago.
Humanist traditions of Gorakhnath and Nathis recalled by Prof Ahmed representing the Hindu Bhakti movement with its inclusive traditions served to a limited integration of all Hindus divided by the caste barriers and Caliphate minded Islamic ruling classes. Sufism originated as a mystic Dervish order, which was a reaction to worldliness of the early Umayyad Caliphate (7th – 8th centuries). It spread eastward fromTurkey through Asia Minor toIndia. The Sufi poetry and literary works of Rumi (Persian, 1207 – 73; born in the village ofWakhsh,Persia -Tajikistan) and Khalil Gibran (Lebanese, 1883 – 1931) are globally acknowledged.
The 1947 partition of British Indiaset in motion the destruction of humanism of people of the region on both sides of the artificially drawn international line by an ignorant British officer eager to return home. As a Punjabi scholar who knows the fissures caused by militants of Punjabin last several decades presumably Prof Ahmed is trying to draw attention to humanist qualities of the majority of Punjabis. The superimposition of Wahabi-Salafi brand Islamic culture and values in Pakistan (1979 to present) and on Muslims of the British India, who were already politically charged with the duality presented by the Deobandi (Sunni) and Barelvi (Sufi) teachings; in Pakistan the Sufis appeared to have lost their message of peace and inclusiveness for all.
Hopes for Future
The on-going Arab Spring movement across the Muslim lands is crying out for dramatic transformational reforms of the Islamic political ideology. Campaigns of terrorism starting 1990 have instigated perpetual wars. It is time for Pakistani public and politicians in general and the army in particular to bring back Sufi wisdom for the benefits of Pakistani masses. Such a transformational change depends on the end of terrorism driven proxy and Cold Wars.
With nuclear deterrence a nation with nearly 200 million populations in 2012 and a population growth rate of about 2% Pakistanis are potentially facing the demographic catastrophe in a decade or two. It needs policies for population control and regional peace for prosperity of the nation to eliminate wide spread poverty. It does not need to compound its problems with perpetual wars. A hope for revival of the Khilafat Movement certainly or should not be supported for creation of the UN mandatedPalestinestate. It is within the powers ofPakistanto embrace the Arab Spring inspired transformational reforms of Islam for peace and prosperity on earth.

- Wikipedia, "Zuhair Mohsen," http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zuhair_Mohsen
- In an interview with the Dutch newspaper Trouw in March 1977, Zuhair Mohsen, a member of the PLO Executive Committee, stated the following:
- "The Palestinian people do not exist. The creation of a Palestinian state is only a means for continuing our struggle against the state of Israel for our Arab unity. In reality today there is no difference between Jordanians, Palestinians, Syrians and Lebanese. Only for political and tactical reasons do we speak today about the existence of a Palestinian people, since Arab national interests demand that we posit the existence of a distinct Palestinian people to oppose Zionism. For tactical reasons, Jordan, which is a sovereign state with defined borders, cannot raise claims to Haifa and Jaffa, while as a Palestinian, I can undoubtedly demand Haifa, Jaffa, Beer-Sheva and Jerusalem. However, the moment we reclaim our right to all ofPalestine, we will not wait even a minute to unitePalestine andJordan."
- The great majority of now a days Palestinians are descendants of immigrants from the Arabian Peninsula(mainly from the regions of Syria, Iraq and Yemen) and N. Africa (Yasser Arafat's origins are Egyptian), who came to this region to benefit from the economic boom created by the Zionists.
- After WW1 the British Empire encouraged Arab immigration to the region because of their need for manpower to service the British army stationed inPalestine.
- E. J. Dionne, "Newt Gingrich, weapon of an angry Republican base," http://seattletimes.nwsource.com/html/opinion/2017033947_dionne19.html
- Gingrich has "take-no-prisoners approach to politics. In 1978 he said: "One of the great problems we have had in the Republican Party is that we … encourage you to be neat, obedient, and loyal and faithful, and all those Boy Scout words which would be great around the campfire but are lousy in politics. … You're fighting a war. It is a war for power. … Don't try to educate. That is not your job. What is the primary purpose of a political leader? To build a majority."
- A summary of Muslim history (6th century to present) follows:
- Islam spread across the globe for last 14 centuries (6th century to present). Islam appeared in 6th century to counter Roman Catholics political persecution of tribal non-Christian believers in occupied Arab and African lands. Islam spread using a political ideology similar to that of Roman Catholics after Muslims invaded lands under Roman Catholic control.
- Muslim colonial rule included four Caliphates (7th to 13th centuries); Rashidun (632 – 661), Umayyad (66 – 750), Al-Andalus or Hispania or Cordoba (921 – 1031) and Abbasids (8th to 13th centuries) and ended with the Ottoman Empire (1299 – 1923). The Umayyad rule expanded westward across North Africa and into Hispania (Iberian Peninsula) and eastward through Persia and ultimately to the ancient lands of Indus Valley, in modern day Pakistan.
- Muslims ruledSouthern Europefor 500 years. Muslim rulers were thrown out of theIberian Peninsulaat the conclusion of the Reconquista campaigns. Muslims have stayed on in all other occupied lands. Globally in 2011 there are about 1.5 billion Muslims; most Muslims are spread in 57 OIC (Organization of Islamic Communities) member nations.
- Now Muslims argue over colonial lands forgetting that historically as colonizers they occupied lands of non-Islamic followers.
- To prepare the summary following articles were consulted.

- Wikipedia, "Al-Andalus" http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Al-Andalus (771 -1492)
- Wikipedia, "Reconquista," http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reconquista After 500 years, in the 15th century, the last remaining Moorish government was the Nasrid dynasty in the Kingdom of Granada in southern Iberia. With its defeat in 1492, the entireIberian Peninsula was brought back under Christian rule, thus completing the Reconquista.

- The Political Violence of the Bible and the Koran, http://www.politicalislam.com/blog/the-political-violence-of-the-bible-and-the-koran/
- The article offers a math based analysis and the article is likely to be branded and rejected by the political opportunists as the Jewish PR against Islam.
- Muslims know with Islam and its teaching in the sacred trilogy of books and examples set by Mohammed (570 – 632) they successfully countered Roman Catholics advances into the tribal Arab and African lands. With many early successes they occupied (632 – 1492) for hundreds of years much of some lands of Roman Catholics. It took 500 years and the Reconquista campaigns ended (1492) once Muslim rulers were thrown out of theIberianPeninsula-the Christian lands. Muslims have held on to all other occupied lands in Africa, Asia Minor, Indus valley, and further North andEastAsia.
- In my mind the issue is simple. For Muslims history started with Mohammed, for Christians with Jesus and we can go back for thousands of years for Jews, Greeks, Hindus, Zoroastrians, etc. Politically all others except Christians and Muslims do not count .India andIsraelare new kids on the block starting 1947 – 1948.
- If it is acceptable for Muslim political opportunists, a PLO leader call Palestinians invented people, then why make an issue of assertion of an American historian turned politician Newt Gingrich to calls Palestinians invented people?
- Muslims love to talk about colonization's by Christian nations knowing full well that starting with Mohammed (570 -632) and Rashidun Caliphate (632 – 661) and continuing through 1923 they did the same. Now that Muslim Empires have disappeared with the end of Ottoman Empire in 1923, for spread of Islam they have turned to partitioning of nations where Muslims have significant (20+%) concentration to form a nation.
- Every new kid on the block likePakistanthen restarts extraterritorial expansion following the path described in their sacred trilogy of books, which can be interpreted to suit their military power, etc.
- The issue is simplified when political opportunist argue that if immigrant European and other Jews toPalestinecan haveIsraelthen why not aPalestinefor Arab farmers who were there during the Ottoman period (1299 – 1923)?
- The issue will be resolved not by who makes sensible arguments but who can emotionally charge the public. In the age of democracy, Arabs know that with public they have the numbers and you don't need math to understand it.
- Wikipedia, "Khilafat Movement," http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Khilafat_Movement
- The Khilafat movement (1919–1924) was a pan-Islamic, political campaign launched by Muslims in British India to influence the British government and to protect the Ottoman Empire during the aftermath of World War I. The position of Caliph after the Armistice of Mudros of October 1918 with the military occupation of Istanbul and Treaty of Versailles (1919) fell into a disambiguation along with the Ottoman Empire's existence. The movement gained force after the Treaty of Sèvres (August 1920) which solidified the partitioning of the Ottoman Empire.

Archive for 9th Year Hops
June Hop Bines Bushing Out and Healthy MaintenancePosted by: | Comments
A lot has happened since the last post. We finally got some warm temps and sunshine (my tomatoes are
happy too!). The hops are bushing out, sending out laterals (branches). Some of the leaves are a foot across. I have hit them twice with Miracle Gro foliar fertilizer, twice with Azomite mineral complex and once with fish emulsion. The hops are healthy!
Pulling Hop Rhizomes
Also had to cut and pull up the hop rhizomes that were spreading. I have 3 varieties of hops in a relative close proximity to each other. You want to keep the bines, one variety per rope. Trimming rhizomes is easy, just cut a circle around the hop crown (say 12 inch radius from the center of the root stock / crown). Then just pull up the rhizomes that grow outwards from the circle you cut. I use a spade shovel and a knife to cut the rhizomes. then just pull them up, they are shallow, a couple inches deep at most, sometimes on top of the soil. You can plant these rhizomes or give them to friends to plant if you want.
On top of the potential rhizome mixing of hop varieties, The branches reach across and if left alone, will intermingle bines (mixed hop cones). You want to keep varieties separated so you have a known product to work with. Especially don't want aroma hops and bittering hops to mingle – they have different purposes. You might end up with a fantastic beer or ale, but you will never be able to replicate it because of the unknown quantities of each variety.
Strip bottom Leaves for Airflow and Health
I finally got around to stripping the bottom 2 & 1/2 to 3 feet of leaves (see pic). I should have done this earlier. This prevents soil borne viruses, bacteria, funguses, mold and mildew from splashing up on the leaves and sometimes spreading disease. It is much better to prevent disease than try and deal with it once it has affected your bines. On top of preventing soil splash, it also helps with airflow. Airflow is necessary to prevent mold and mildews from growing on your bines. Those are my wife's Peonies between bines. They were there before the hops (hops are 9 years old now).
Hop Bines all Top OutPosted by: | Comments
My hop bine progress has not been reported timely and I apologize for that. I am a couple days behind the hops all topping their ropes. I have been pre-occupied with my mother's passing and a dental issue (lasted 2 weeks ending with an extremely painful extraction), TV died and an auto breakdown… Other than that, things are great (mostly, just heard my wife's grandmother passed today – she is/was a wonderful individual). These issues have distracted me from my timely reporting of the hop's progress. Just giving some perspective to the gaps in posting.
Anyway, enough excuses, I am posting that all 3 hop varieties have topped their ropes today (Cascade hop bines being the last to top out). So far it has been a varied season. Several days above average temps, several days below average temps and currently cold and cloudy.
The Magnum and Nugget bines (the first to top out about a week ago) are sending out lateral growth (branches/filling out). Hopefully we will get back to normal temps and sunshine so the hops can flourish. It has been raining and way below average temps for a week straight now and the hops and me could use some sunshine. I will need to fertilize again as the 6+ inches of rain this last week probably leached some nutrients from the ground.
Hop Bines Grow 5 Feet in a MonthPosted by: | Comments
It took about a month to go from hop sprouts breaking ground, to 5 foot tall Magnum hop bines. On a warm sunny day, they easily grow six inches in a day now. Unfortunately, it is supposed to be unseasonably cold for the next 2 weeks, cloudy, raining and snow. Not very conducive to growing hops.
They will survive but growth will be slow during the below average temps (freezing temperatures some of the upcoming nights). These bines will reach the tops of there ropes – 13 to 15 feet tall.
If you notice the 2, foot tall bines against the wall, that is hops spreading via rhizomes. The rhizomes spread away from the crown at or usually just below the surface. They will set their own roots and become new hop crowns if I don't dig them up.
I will dig them up, otherwise they will take over the yard. I just dig a circle about 18 inches in diameter around the main root stock or crown, then pull up the rhizomes on the outside of the circle. You have to do this every year or two.
The rhizomes and small bines can be planted where you wish. If you don't need or want them, give them to friends, family, coworkers, local home brew clubs… Someone can use them. Maybe trade for some homebrew. IMPORTANT – make sure to label the variety if you have more than one – it can be difficult to tell them apart.
Just wrap the rhizomes in damp (not wet) paper towels and put them in plastic bags (labeled). If you need to store them for up to a week, place them in the refrigerator.
I top dressed the soil with compost and sprinkled Azomite (mineral fertilizer) to help feed these hops. I watered the area so the Azomite soaked into the compost and soil. I will do this a couple more times this year to feed and mulch out grass and weeds. I also use kelp and emulsified fish for fertilizer (organic).

NEW ORLEANS - OK, Auburn. Maybe it's time to hang up this "no-name" defense tag.

It doesn't quite fit anymore. Not with Carlos Rogers, the nation's top defensive back, outspoken safety Junior Rosegreen and undersized but feisty middle linebacker Travis Williams.
The third-ranked Tigers (12-0) do, in fact, have some stars now to go with the impressive stats but Stanley McClover isn't ready to shuck the no-name label.
"That's our name. We've been going (by that) the whole year," the defensive end said.
Auburn enters Monday night's Sugar Bowl against Virginia Tech (10-2) with the nation's top scoring defense, a group that also ranks fifth in total yards allowed and eighth against the pass.
The defenders pinned the "no-name" label before the season almost as a sarcastic answer to all the skeptics who wondered how they'd fare with the loss of five of their seven starting linebackers and linemen. It became more of a mantra.
Besides Rogers and Rosegreen, all the big-name defenders were gone, including NFL draft picks Dontarrious Thomas, Karlos Dansby and Reggie Torbor.
"There were a lot of questions, as far as how good our defense was going to be, (because) we lost this person and that person," Williams said. "This year we played as a team, and by playing as a team, we had more All-Americans, more All-SEC players. If you play as a team, good things will happen."
Indeed, the Tigers have 24 players with a tackle for loss, 13 have recorded a sack and eight have forced fumbles. Williams leads the team with a relatively modest 76 tackles. Nobody else has more than 57.
Rogers was a first-team Associated Press All-American who won the Jim Thorpe Award. Rosegreen, a second-team All-American, and defensive tackle Tommy Jackson joined him as first-team AP All-Southeastern Conference picks while Williams made the coaches first-team.
Safety Will Herring said Auburn's defensive success is about more than talent.
"It's just our attitude, our desire to get to the football," Herring said.

Every time there is a presidential election, a new law is passed, or halloween comes rolling around the corner, or I make a Facebook post about my thoughts on astrology, I can very quickly identify the people that agree with my stance, or who disagree with me.
Nothing makes people unfollow your Facebook fan page quicker than a post about how astrology rips us away from our true identity in Christ, or how church isn't an organization it's a community, or how the cookie part of an Oreo is truly the best part (not the cream filling!)
In all honesty we can all lose our cool when people disagree with us. We can lose hope in humanity because if people just don't see eye to eye with us then we wonder if they are truly sociopaths, and we wonder to ourself "what is life?"
Just this week I realized my oldest daughter will be able to vote in the next presidential election.
Guess what? She might not vote for the same person that I vote for? *gasp*
The older my children get, the more I realize that living a life by the rules simply because it's right, and you want to portray a certain image, is truly a façade.
The pharisees knew the law so well, they knew what they had to do in order to LOOK like they were righteous. But that doesn't mean that they WERE righteous.
Sure, these "rules" we have set in place in our home has helped our children to know where our heart stands on certain things, for the most part I would like to say that my husband and I have shown our children that we are united on almost everything, including who we vote for in the presidential elections.
However, I had to come to the realization that when my oldest daughter turns 18 years old, she will have to make these decisions on her own, and I might not always agree with her. I also had to ask myself what do I cling to in midst of this gut wrenching fear I have about letting her go, and watching her make her own decisions that I feel might not be the best decisions, or that will line up with my beliefs?
I came to the conclusion that I have to cling to the goodness & Jesus.
The truth is when arguments ensue about RFRA laws, presidential elections, or whether or not Christians should celebrate Halloween, often times we aren't always ALL "right." The Word says our righteous acts are like filthy rags. Just because we stand with or against something doesn't always make it RIGHT. I used to be the person who did her very best to follow along with these rules, but I can guarantee you those rules never changed MY HEART!
The truth is, the more people argue about these things, all I can see is the hypocrisy that still exists among a very broken and sinful world.
In the midst of the fears I have about my daughter becoming an adult, I choose to hang on to that text that says "I love you." Or those requests for FAMILY NIGHT from my almost adult daughter. I mean she still wants to hang out with us! Or when she makes a post about how I am her BFF – seriously, what else am I going to cling to?
The fact is there isn't a single person, or a single CHRISTIAN, a law, or presidential candidate that hasn't disappointed me at some point in time. But in the midst of it all, I can still hold on tight to the goodness that comes out of this broken world. Or I can choose to look at the disappointment, and in the end find hopelessness.
Today, I will cling to the goodness even though I feel all the world is busy making a point rather than trying to understand where the other person is coming from.
Holding on tight to the goodness teaches us to have understanding and wisdom.
Don't get me wrong, there is a certain part of me that would love to know that y'all agree with me on these things, or that my daughter will live the life that I feel will bring freedom and wisdom. But even then, I hope she does better than me.
But most of all I want everyone to follow Jesus, not me.

5 STAR AMAZON REVIEW: "I really enjoyed this mini study. I like when things make you think and journal and you can focus on one aspect at a time. It was a great study."
Our faith begins with what we know and believe about God. Our faith will carry us how far we are willing to let it take us. Faith is a choice and we need to begin by choosing to believe in Jesus and His power to move mountains, heal the sick, and save us from all our sins through His sacrifice on the cross.

Regularly dreaming about freshly baked goods in the morning? Yes, I am talking about that incredibly delicious freshly baked bread, that smells amazing and it's still a bit warm from baking. If you do, then these treats are for you. Super soft spelt and whole wheat english muffins. The best way to make these is one day ahead. Simply knead all together, leave to proof overnight in the fridge, cook in the morning and voilà, you have your easy peasy freshly baked bread ready to serve (and eat:) No fuss, no muss. They are easy to make and the combination of spelt and whole wheat flour gives an extra richness in flavor. English muffins go great with butter and jam (or honey), poached egg or can be even used for burgers. So good.

Social Question
What do you think happened to my 6 legged spider Alex?
Asked by talljasperman (21739) April 5th, 2014
It was a medium sized house spider… I captured it in my bathroom 5 years ago with a root beer container. I realized that I had severed 2 of its 8 legs , so i put a little bit of drinking water in the container and poked some holes in the lid so it can breathe. One week later it spun a web and i realized that it was hungry, So I took it outside and let it go in the backyard grass in Autumn. I wonder what would have happened to my spider… I named him Alex. What do you think happened to my 6 legged spider let go in the mountains of Jasper.

'Alien: Covenant' SXSW Footage: Three Scenes, Lots of Screams
"My mantra has always been to scare the living s— out of you." Those were Ridley Scott's final words before he unleashed three scenes from Alien: Covenant to a packed theater at SXSW last night. Scott was joined by stars Katherine Waterston, Michael Fassbender and Danny McBride at a special screening of his original Alien, preceded by a sneak peek at footage from Covenant. You're warned of potential spoilers from here on out, but it's doubtful that Scott, who seems very confident about his "quite clever" prequel, would allow us to see footage that gave away too much.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Welsh name Wiliam is a patronymic surname derived from the personal name William, which is in turn derived from the Old German names Willihelm and Willelm (the Norman French version was Guillaume). Following the Norman Conquest of 1066, William became the most popular personal name in Britain for a time.
Wiliam Early Origins
Breconshire and Monmouthshire on the English/ Welsh border, where they are traditionally believed to be descended from Brychan Brecheiniog who was Lord of Brecknock at the time of King Arthur of the Round Table. The mediaeval seat of the ancestors of the Wiliam family was at Llangibby Castle in County Monmouth. More recently, the family is descended through Rhys Goch, the red haired Lord Ystradyw from Caradog Vreichvras. One of the first records of the name was listed as Robertus filius Willelmi [1]CITATION[CLOSE]
Reaney, P.H and R.M. Wilson, A Dictionary of English Surnames. London: Routledge, 1991. Print. (ISBN 0-415-05737-X) which was listed in the Domesday Book. [2]CITATION[CLOSE]
Williams, Dr Ann. And G.H. Martin, Eds., Domesday Book A Complete Translation. London: Penguin, 1992. Print. (ISBN 0-141-00523-8) Other early records include Richard Williams who was listed in the Hundredorum Rolls of 1279 and John Wylyam who was listed in the Subsidy Rolls of Sussex in 1296.
Wiliam Spelling Variations
Wiliam Spelling Variations
Although there are not an extremely large number Welsh surnames, there are an inordinately large number of spelling variations of those surnames. This variety of spellings began almost immediately after the acceptance of surnames within Welsh society. As time progressed, these old Brythonic names were eventually were recorded in English. This process was problematic in that many of the highly inflected sounds of the native language of Wales could not be properly captured in English. Some families, however, did decide to modify their own names to indicate a branch loyalty within the family, a religious adherence, or even a patriotic affiliation. The name Wiliam has seen various spelling variations: Williams, Quilliams, Guilliam, Guilliams and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
In the 1800s and 1900s, many Welsh families left for North America, in search of land, work, and freedom. Those who made the trip successfully helped contribute to the growth of industry, commerce, and the cultural heritage of both Canada and the United States. In the immigration and passenger lists were a number of people bearing the name Wiliam David Williams and Elizabeth Williams, who both settled in Virginia in 1623; as did Edward Williams in 1624; Richard Williams, who came to Maine in 1630.
The motto was originally a war cry or slogan. Mottoes first began to be shown with arms in the 14th and 15th centuries, but were not in general use until the 17th century. Thus the oldest coats of arms generally do not include a motto. Mottoes seldom form part of the grant of arms: Under most heraldic authorities, a motto is an optional component of the coat of arms, and can be added to or changed at will; many families have chosen not to display a motto.
Motto: Ensuivant la verite
Motto Translation: By following the truth.

After a season four premiere that earned HBO its best ratings since the Sopranos finale, it's clear that audiences are eager to spend as much time as possible in Westeros — so it's no great surprise that HBO has renewed Game of Thrones for a fifth season and a sixth season.
For those keeping track at home, that means there are guaranteed to be at least 29 more episodes of Game of Thrones that you haven't seen yet (though probably not much more than that, since the showrunners' ideal scenario maxes out at seven or eight seasons). Still, it's a relief to know that we can look forward to several more years of Daenerys wandering around the desert, inexplicably refusing to fly her dragons back to Westeros. Scott Meslow
After several years in foster care, Anthony Berry never thought he'd be adopted at age 16 — and he definitely didn't think his new mom would be his former English teacher.
Anthony met Bennie Berry last November, and she thought he was kidding when he asked her to adopt him in January. "Then later I found out that it was really an option to adopt him, so we pushed forward," she told ABC News. Anthony entered the foster system at age nine, and had decided he didn't want to be adopted, but that changed when he met Bennie. "Life is like a box of chocolates," he joked. "You never know what you might get."
Last week in Beaumont, Texas, the adoption was made official, and both members of the Berry family are excited to see what the future brings. "I have a son," Bennie said. "I'm more than elated. I have a son for the rest of my life." Catherine Garcia
Olympic gymnast Gabby Douglas wrote in an Instagram post on Tuesday that she was sexually abused by Larry Nassar, Team USA's doctor.
Douglas, 21, said she didn't tell anyone about the abuse because "for years we were conditioned to stay silent, and honestly, some things were extremely painful. I wholeheartedly support my teammates for coming forward with what happened to them."
Her former teammates Aly Raisman and McKayla Maroney have both said they were abused by Nassar, 54, who served as the national team doctor for more than 20 years. He is accused of molesting several girls while working for USA Gymnastics and Michigan State University, and will plead guilty to multiple charges of assault, a person with knowledge of the situation told The Associated Press Tuesday.

The Partridge Family star and former teen heartthrob David Cassidy died from organ failure Tuesday in Fort Lauderdale, Florida. He was 67.
Cassidy's family confirmed his death to People magazine, saying he "died surrounded by those he loved, with joy in his heart and free from the pain that had gripped him for so long." He was hospitalized last week with liver and kidney failure, and had been in the intensive care unit.
Cassidy hit it big starring in The Partridge Family, alongside his stepmother, Shirley Jones. A singer, he toured the world in his early 20s, but decided to quit and focus on songwriting and recording. Cassidy publicly shared his struggles with alcohol, and in February announced he had dementia. He is survived by Jones; son Beau Cassidy; daughter Katie Cassidy; brothers Shaun, Patrick, and Ryan Cassidy; and several nieces and nephews. Catherine Garcia
President Trump is spending Thanksgiving at Mar-a-Lago, his gilded private club in Palm Beach, Florida, and the members who pay $15,000 a year in dues have to start following special rules that go into effect when Trump's on the premises.
A notice was sent out Monday reminding members that they'll have to go through Secret Service checkpoints, which will likely take 10 to 20 minutes, Politico reports. "Pocket knives, laser pointers, pepper spray, and any other items deemed to be a safety hazard are not permitted on property," the memo said. "Any items surrendered will not be returned." Members are also only allowed to bring two guests at a time to the club, and all of the rules are enough to keep some people away. "We plan not to be there when he's there," one longtime member told Politico. "When he's there, it's a mess."
Trump has dubbed Mar-a-Lago the "Winter White House," and Chief of Staff John Kelly is reportedly trying to figure out a way to keep Trump from hobnobbing with the members in the club's main dining room, but friend and Mar-a-Lago member Chris Ruddy said he doubts he'll be able to keep him away. "The president thrives on the interactions he has with guests, friends, and members, and I'd be surprised if that didn't continue in some way," he told Politico. Catherine Garcia
In October 2016, hackers stole the personal data of 57 million Uber customers and drivers, the company announced Tuesday.
Uber paid the hackers $100,000 to delete the data, which included names, email addresses, phone numbers, and in the case of some U.S. drivers, driver's license numbers. The company told Bloomberg they do not believe the information was ever used, and its chief security officer and deputy were let go this week for not going public with the hack.
"None of this should have happened, and I will not make excuses for it," CEO Dara Khosrowshahi said in a statement. "We are changing the way we do business." A spokeswoman for New York Attorney General Eric Schneiderman said he has launched an investigation into the hack. Catherine Garcia
Once tasked with everything from brokering peace in the Middle East to ending the opioid crisis in America, President Trump's son-in-law and senior adviser Jared Kushner has seen his responsibilities slowly fade away over the last few months, several White House officials told Vanity Fair.
It started when Chief of Staff John Kelly arrived over the summer. "Kelly has clipped his wings," one Republican close to the White House told Gabriel Sherman. He's made it so Kushner, who worked in real estate and once ran a newspaper, mostly focuses on the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and was angry when Kushner made an unannounced trip to Saudi Arabia right before the Crown Price arrested 11 of his fellow Saudi royals, Vanity Fair reports. Many believe the timing proves Kushner had something to do with planning the purge, and that's what ticked off Kelly. White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders found this notion hilarious, telling Vanity Fair, "Chief Kelly and Jared had a good laugh about this inquiry as nothing in it is true."
Kelly's not the only person in the White House finding fault with Kushner — several Republicans told Sherman Trump is not pleased with the political advice he's received from his son-in-law, including to back Luther Strange in the Alabama Republican Senate primary. Strange ended up losing to Roy Moore, who now stands accused of sexual misconduct by several women. Three Republicans told Sherman that if Trump had his way, Kushner and his wife, Ivanka Trump, would return to New York City with their family, where the president thinks they would escape negative press. Catherine Garcia
On Tuesday, President Trump told White House reporters that "we do not need a liberal person" to win the open Senate seat in Alabama. "You have to listen to" Roy Moore's denials of the allegations of his sexual misconduct with minors, Trump told reporters, referring to the multiple women who have accused the Republican candidate of inappropriate conduct. Trump said that Moore's Democratic opponent Doug Jones — who convicted two KKK members for bombing a church in Alabama — was "terrible on crime" and "terrible on the border" before adding that allegations against Moore occurred over 40 years ago, "so, you know."
Trump on Roy Moore sexual misconduct allegations: "He totally denies it…you have to listen to him also" pic.twitter.com/HFCZjEhkFe
— NBC News (@NBCNews) November 21, 2017
Although the Republican Party has largely distanced itself or withdrawn support entirely from Moore, the White House had been reluctant to give a firm opinion on Moore's candidacy. Last week, White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders said that the president believed "the people of Alabama should make the decision on who their senator should be." On Monday, White House counselor Kellyanne Conway gave a slightly less limp endorsement of Moore, saying on Fox & Friends that Moore's victory would help the Republicans pass tax reform — comments the Moore campaign latched onto as implicit proof of a White House endorsement.
Before Trump made his way to Mar-a-Lago for his Thanksgiving vacation, he was also asked about the recent wave of sexual assault allegations. His answer was noteworthy, given he has been accused of sexual assault and harassment by many women. Kelly O'Meara Morales

In a Reversal, Fewer Americans Save for Retirement
May 10, 2001
A new survey by the Employee Benefit Research Institute (EBRI) and others finds that fewer Americans are saving for retirement -- and fewer have calculated how much money they need to save. An EBRI executive says the report represents the first reversal in behavior and attitudes in the past six years.
- This year, 71 percent of survey participants said they were saving money for retirement -- down from 75 percent in 2000.
- Some 63 percent said they were "very" or "somewhat" confident of their ability to have enough money to live comfortably in retirement -- a drop from 72 percent a year ago.
- The proportion of workers who said they were "not at all confident" about having enough money later in life jumped to 17 percent from 10 percent.
- The drop in confidence often relates to Medicare -- with 57 percent saying they aren't confident the program will continue to provide benefits equal to the value of current benefits.
When asked whether they had taken the time to calculate how much money they will need to save for retirement, only 39 percent said they had taken a stab at the math -- down from 51 percent last year.
