From the Christianity Today Live Blog:
This was supposed to be the year the Democrats got religion. Too bad somebody forgot to tell the pollsters. One of the big untold stories of the Iowa caucus is that only Republicans were asked about their religious affiliation. The problem isn't just that we don't know how many Iowan evangelicals voted for the various Democrats (it would be interesting to see, for example, if Edwards scored as well among evangelicals as he did among conservatives). The problem is that we don't know whether Democrats as a whole have succeeded in attracting more evangelical voters. (Usually somewhere between one quarter and one third of evangelicals vote Democratic.) I'm told we'll see some Iowa caucus poll results soon (not from Edison Media Research, the company that does most of these entrance and exit polls) that may shine some light on the religion questions. The good news is that Edison Media Research has repented, and today's New Hampshire exit polls (via CNN [Rep | Dem] and MSNBC [Rep | Dem] )had many religion questions for both Republicans and Democrats. Clinton, it seems, took the moderately religious (those who attend church monthly or a few times a year), while Obama took the devout (weekly attenders) and the nonreligious (those who never attend church). Roman Catholics (the largest religious group among New Hampshire Democrats, with 36% of voters in that primary), overwhelmingly chose Clinton (43%) over Obama (28%). Those who said they had no religion supported Obama (47%) over Clinton (28%), and that formed a remarkable 22 percent of Democratic voters.

The mainstream media has mainly only written about the plight of Israelis living around Sderot when someone actually is killed by a Qassam rocket falling out of the sky from Gaza. But tomorrow's New York Times has this story, pegged to President Bush's arrival:
SDEROT, Israel â Less than two months ago, Raziel Sasson emerged from his rocket-proof closet, willing now to sleep just outside it, with the rest of his family, on mattresses circled on the living room floor. But Razi, 13, still wakes his father up three times a night, afraid to walk alone to the bathroom.
Four years ago, Razi was climbing a tree when a Qassam rocket, fired from nearby Gaza, flew over his head and exploded nearby. He remembers the spinning contrail of the crude rocket and its fierce whistle. The blast blew him eight yards to the ground.
Sderot, a working-class town of mainly North African immigrants less than two miles from Gaza, has been hit over the past four years with some 2,000 rockets of improving range and explosive power â 22 in the last eight days. Eight Sderot civilians have been killed by the rockets; Razi has seen 15 therapists.
âHe wouldnât leave the house to go to school for a year,â said his mother, Shula. One of his older brothers, Rafi, 22, used his army exit pay to build Razi a bomb shelter in the living room, a concrete cocoon with a steel door.
Across the border in Gaza, life is wretched for Palestinians. But as President Bush prepares to arrive in Jerusalem on Wednesday for the first time since taking office, to spur peace talks between Israel and the Palestinian president, he will hear a lot about the Qassams.
For many Israelis, Sderot (pronounced stay-ROTE) embodies the fears of what happens when they pulled back from occupied land, as they did from all of Gaza more than two years ago â it turns into a staging ground for attacks by extremist Palestinians that a peace treaty will not stop.
âWhen Bush comes, he should come to Sderot,â said Raziâs father, Moshe, 49, who works as a prison warden in Beersheba.
The problems of Sderot â and of a Gaza run by Hamas, considered a terrorist group by Israel and the United States â are at the heart of Israelâs security concerns. But those concerns, like Hamas itself, are present only in the abstract in the American-led peace effort, which features negotiations between Israel and the Palestinian president, Mahmoud Abbas of Fatah, who has no control over Hamas or Gaza.

Despite Barack Obama's decisive victory in Iowa last week, and double-digit leads for tonight's primary in New Hampshire, and maybe because the Republican landscape remains so unclear, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg continues to play the will-he-or-won't-he game.
Onto this crowded and rejuvenated political stage now comes Michael Bloomberg, our skilled and uncommonly non-neurotic mayor, engaged in a different variety of the electoral enterpriseâa prolonged game of Presidential footsie. Even as he has issued denials of interest to everyone from the press corps at City Hall to Ryan Seacrest on Dick Clarkâs New Yearâs Eve broadcast, Bloomberg has deputized some of his leading aides to draw up scenarios for a third-party candidacy and to keep the interest of the press well fluffed. The press, titillated by access, has coöperated with front-page âwould-he, could-heâ stories. This week, Bloomberg will attend a meeting of Unity08, in Oklahoma, to discuss third-party options, and in recent weeks he has displayed a vague yet imperious disdain for the assembled candidates, while privately hustling from one policy consultant and policy grandee to the next, to ask, âWhat chance does a five-foot-seven billionaire Jew whoâs divorced really have of becoming President?â
The reason that Bloombergâs coy exploratory venture has earned him such attention is obvious. âThere are two things that are important in politics,â Mark Hanna, the Ohio industrialist and senator who ran William McKinleyâs campaign, in 1896, said. âThe first is money and I canât remember what the second one is.â All the front-runners except Mike Huckabee are millionaires to one degree or anotherâObama is the poorest, with a net worth of just over a million dollars, Mitt Romney the richest, with two hundred millionâbut Bloomberg is wealthier by an order of magnitude. According to Forbes, he is worth more than eleven billion dollars. Bloomberg owns an estate in Bermuda, a horse farm in Westchester County, a condominium in Vail, a ten-million-dollar town house in London, and a thirteen-and-a-half-million-dollar town house on East Seventy-ninth Street. To commute among them, he takes his private jet, a Falcon 9. He isnât stingy, though; heâs one of the leading philanthropists in the United States and has said that at some point he hopes to give away as much as four hundred million dollars a year.
Still, running for President is not cheap.
The biggest question, obviously, is whether a third-party candidate—Bloomberg is a nominal Independent—can really compete in a two-party system. I know a lot of Republican Jews who remain excited about the possibility of voting for someone they agree with not just fiscally but socially, but most observers have so far said Bloomberg couldn't overcome the outsider handicap.

New New York Times columnist Bill Kristol—liberals didn't exactly role out the welcome mat—used his first paid column to pom-pom Mike Huckabee. This surprised me because, aside from the clear religious and social differences between the two, Huckabee seems to be among the least globally aware of the Republican presidential candidates, and I always thought foreign policy was what neocons prided themselves on.
Then again, with statements like this, maybe Kristol and Huckabee have the same knowledge of what's going on in the Middle East.
Some of us would much prefer a non-liberal and non-Democratic administration. We donât want to increase the scope of the nanny state, we donât want to undo the good done by the appointments of John Roberts and Samuel Alito to the Supreme Court, and we really donât want to snatch defeat out of the jaws of victory in Iraq.
Who knew we were winning the war in Iraq? At this point, is it accurate to even call the situation over there a "war?" Or is it better to refer to it as a colossal screw-up in reconstruction (though, yes, some progress has been measurable)?

A Roman Catholic newspaper has reported the Malaysian government has reversed its decision to ban the publication over its use of the word Allah, easing tensions that had strained racial harmony in the multiethnic country.
In a surprising turnabout, the government renewed The Herald weeklyâs 2008 permit without any conditions, said its editor Rev. Lawrence Andrew. Internal security officials declined to comment. All publications in Malaysia require a government permit, which is renewed annually.
The government had said that Allah, an Arabic word for God, can only be used by Muslims. Officials feared that using Allah in Christian literature would confuse the Malays and draw them to Christianity.Malaysian Christians said that Allah that was used by Christians before Islam was established. Even in Malaysia, Malay-speaking Christians have used the word Allah for generations. Allah also means God in Bahasa Melayu, the language of Malays.
Though Muslims, Christians and Jews all worship the God of Abraham, there are clearly differences in how members of those faiths understand Him, which I would say actually means they believe in different representations of the same One God. Other amateur theologians argue that members of the Abrahamic faiths believe in a different Creator. Assuming the former is true, should Christians call God "Allah?"

Those who came to Oba Ernesto Pichardo's fall semester course at Florida International University's Biscayne Bay campus expecting chicken heads, seashells and drum circles probably left disappointed.
The controversial, charismatic and enterprising Pichardo, a Yoruba priest and the country's leading expert on Santeria, spent hours talking about the transatlantic slave trade, paraded in cultural anthropology professors and expected both Powerpoint presentations and 12-page research papers at semester's end.
It was a different side of a man best known for having spent the last few decades fighting lawmakers and Santeria detractors. His most notorious tussle: with the city of Hialeah over sanctioning animal sacrifices in religious ceremonies. He won, earning the U.S. Supreme Court's blessing.
He also won over his sixteen undergraduate students this year. The class included several religious studies majors, a Peruvian-American Broward school teacher, a 61-year-old auditor and a grandfather-grandson duo. Many of them came to get in touch with their Afro-Caribbean roots.
Four months ago he concluded FIU's first three-credit Santeria class, with a grand prediction: ``You are making history here today.''
''This is not some fringe movement,'' Pichardo told his students. ``If you can get a Ph.D. in Judaism or Christianity, you should at least be able to take a course in Santeria.''
Santeria is not a religion I suspect many Americans are familiar with. The only place most people my age have probably even heard that word was on KROQ about 10 years ago. I don't think the above article from the Miami Herald does much to explain the belief practices associated with it either. It's roots lie in the Yoruba people of Nigeria, and the most controversial element is that of animal sacrifice. I find more interesting the Santeria understanding of God and of good and evil.
The Yoruba believe in a creator who is called Olofi (god). There is no specific belief in a devil since the Yoruba belief system is not a dualistic philosophy â good versus evil, God versus a devil. Instead the universe is seen as containing forces of expansion and forces of contraction. These forces interact in complex ways to create the universe. All things are seen to have positive aspects, or Iré, and negative aspects, or Ibi. Nothing is seen as completely good or completely evil but all things are seen as having different proportions of both. Similarly no action is seen as universally as wrong or right, but rather can only be judged with the context and circumstances in which it takes place.
I mentioned this summer that Santeria is a popular religion among Major League Baseball's Latin American players, though few are willing to talk about it.

Speaking of Germany, the Economist has a story about the reborn Jewish community there. and how its resulting from an influx of Soviet immigrants is causing a totally different crisis.
German Jews who survived in Germany, or in exile, had a deeply ambivalent relationship with their homeland. Apart from guiltâthat they had survived, and even stayed in the killers' countryâmany felt an almost physical revulsion when they came into close contact with Germans. So they retreated to live in yet another form of ghetto.
By the time the Berlin Wall fell, Germany's Jewish community had only 30,000 ageing members and was dwindling rapidly. Today it is the third-largest, and the fastest-growing, Jewish population in western Europe, after France and Britain. Between 1991, when the country was unified and immigration rules relaxed, and 2005, more than 200,000 Jews from the former Soviet Union emigrated to Germany. (At the same time, more than a million emigrated from the former Soviet Union to Israel and about 350,000 to America, leaving only about 800,000 behind.) In some parts of Germany, immigrantsâusually referred to as âthe Russiansââmake up 90% of the local Jewish population.
A few of the so-called established Jewsâthose who lived in Germany before the fall of the Berlin Wallâare enthusiastic about the new arrivals. Hermann Simon, director of the Centrum Judaicum, a museum and research centre in Berlin, was born in 1949 of German parents, and grew up in East Berlin. He says that without the immigration of Russian Jews, the future for Germany's Jews would be dark.
Yet most established Jews disagree. The dapper Mr Schoeps, now director of the Moses-Mendelssohn Centre for European-Jewish Studies in Potsdam, near Berlin, argues that Germany's old Jewish heritage is gone. Its so-called âmemory landscapeââmemorial sites, commemorative plaques, cultural centres and museumsâis now being guarded by gentiles who are merely interested in things Jewish; the sort of people who crowd to the Chanukkah market at Berlin's Jewish Museum to sample latkes and sufganiot (doughnuts) and to sip kosher mulled wine.
As for the immigrants from the former Soviet Union, most neither know nor care about Jewish rituals and traditions. Few of the newcomers keep a kosher home. Many men are not circumcised. When they arrive in Germany, they focus on the practicalities of lifeâjobs, flats, social security and health insurance. They play chess rather than Skat, a popular card game in Germany. Their cultural icons are Dostoyevsky and Tchaikovsky, not Goethe and Beethoven, let alone Mendelssohn or Heine, who were German Jews.
Established Jews find the newcomers anders (different from us), suspect that they are not ârealâ Jews and think they are mainly coming in search of prosperity and material help from the state and the community. âThey take whatever they can get,â sniffs one.
It's not so much eerie as it is reinforcing how familiar this story is. Immigrant Jews have often been at odds with their more refined second- and third-generation co-religionists. In fact, Stanley Gold, the new chair of the Jewish Federation of Greater LA, told me his father was born in El Paso because his grandfather had been forced to immigrate through a port in Texas by New York's German Jews, those elite publishers and bankers with names like Schiff and Sulzberger (though not necessarily those men), who had succeeded in redirecting Yiddish-speaking Hebrews from Central and Eastern Europe.
Here in Los Angeles, there has certainly been a delay, if unintentional, in breaking down the barriers between the former Soviet Jews and the more-established Jewish community. Not to mention the overdue acceptance of tens of thousands of Persian Jews.

I'm been receiving e-mails from Daryl Toor since last week promoting a new book, at first ambiguously, that he says will do to presidential candidate Mitt Romney what the Swift Boat Veterans for Truth did to Sen. John Kerry in his unsuccessful 2004 run for the Executive Office.
This exciting new book—Mitt, Set Our People Free!—published by Revelation Press, reveals just how Mitt Romney's sacred oath to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints, known as the Mormons or the LDS—including a vow of obedience to the "Living Prophet," the President of the LDS Church—will impact his ability to govern as President of the United States.
Jesus said that man cannot serve two masters—but if Romney is elected President, he will have to serve two conflicting oaths. American Presidents swear an oath to preserve, protect and defend the Constitution of the United States. However, this Presidential Oath is in direct conflict with Romney's sacred oath to his Mormon Church—a blood oath which puts Romney's life, fortune and obedience at the unrestricted service of his Church. This obedience is defined by the Church's Living Prophet, the President of the Mormon Church and—as they believe—the literal Voice of God on earth.
According to author Mike Moody, "One of the LDS Church's basic tenets is a prophecy from founder and First Prophet Joseph Smith that in the latter days, the U.S. Constitution will 'hang by a thread as fine as silk fiber' until a Mormon leader rides in on his White Horse to save the U.S. and the Constitution—then use his control of the United States to set up a world-wide theocracy, one based on the clearly unorthodox beliefs of the Church of Latter Day Saints."
Author Mike Moody, himself a 7th Generation Mormon from a family of Church-founding patriarchs - men who served Joseph Smith and Brigham Young as they created this remarkable "church"—uses his both insider knowledge of the LDS Church and his long-time personal ties to his one-time college fraternity brother, Mitt Romney, to point out the essential conflict between Romney's sacred Oath to the Church and the oath he seeks to take as President.
Moody also details—chapter and verse—the many compromises and less-than-candid and frequently inconsistent positions Romney has taken to bring himself from successful venture capitalist to one of the leading contenders for the Republican nomination for Presidency.
The entire press release, via Reuters. After reading the release, I was immediately suspicious of author's intentions and current religious affiliation. The Sleuth picks up the scent:
For all the talk about dirty tricks this season, one of the more questionable (and curious) came at a news conference Monday far from the campaign trail. At a news conference at the sleepy National Press Club in Washington, a no-name college classmate of Mitt Romney hawked his "open letter" to Romney titled "Mitt, Set Our People Free!"
A lapsed Mormon, Michael Moody mocked his former religion (in very nasty terms) and declared Romney unfit for the presidency because of what he sees as the Mormon former Massachusetts governor's biggest conflict: his "blood oath" to the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints.
And then came the "C" word: "The great American cult," Moody said, characterizing the religion founded by Joseph Smith, a prophet to Mormons.
"Many of you are from the East Coast and you don't know a lot about Mormonism," Moody said to the roomful of about a dozen reporters and four photographers who clearly had nothing better to do, what with 75 percent of their colleagues from the Fourth Estate (truly a "C" word organization) in New Hampshire to cover Tuesday's primary.
So, even as he went on and on (and on) trampling the tenets of Mormonism, Moody omitted references (too obscure for his East Coast audience) to the angel Moroni, who led Smith, the prophet, to a set of golden plates in 1827 written in an unknown language—and then to the seer-stones Urim and Thummim, which translated the ancient language to the epic Book of Mormon.
Instead, Moody spoke in more dumbed-down terms of how Mormons are beholden to living prophets, such as Gordon Hinckley, who can tip them off to the Second Coming. "The Mormon prophet—he is the man," Moody said, adding that "they"—the Mormons—are "waiting for Hinckley to tell 'em: 'Let's go to Missouri and knock it off with an Osmond concert and build the new Jerusalem."
The seemingly embittered former Mormon claims he and Romney were members of the Cougar Club together at Brigham Young University, where he saw Romney give the valedictorian speech at their 1971 graduation ceremony. There was "great buzz" on campus about young Mitt one day running for president, he said. Romney's view, he claims, was "If not me, then who?"
One of his main problems with Romney becoming president is that Romney, if he follows the teachings of his faith, "believes he's going to become a God some day."
Don't worry about this book making much of an impact. I can't find it online. And who's ever heard of Revelation Press?

In the office of Jonathan Tobin, top editor of Philadelphia's weekly Jewish Exponent newspaper, hangs a portrait of Vladimir Jabotinsky (1880-1940), the Zionist leader who urged Jews to arm themselves against future attacks, then founded the Irgun militia.
In the office of J.J. Goldberg, editorial director of the Forward - the English-language spin-off of the Jewish Daily Forward, the Yiddish paper that taught Jewish immigrants how to be Americans - hangs a portrait of founding editor Abraham Cahan (1860-1951), a Russian Jewish socialist who evolved toward liberalism.
The opposed visuals confirm that history counts for a lot at these two vibrant, yet different, survivors of Jewish newspapering in America.
Tired of all the kvetching about crises in the newspaper biz? Here's some good news: Jewish newspapering remains alive and well.
Indeed. But this piece from the Philly Inquirer, which in focusing on The Forward and Exponent discusses a brief history of Jewish newspapering, completely fails to mention anything west of Chicago. Last time I checked, LA Jewry claims the second largest community in the country and one of the largest weeklies. Not that I am biased or anything. But back to the Inquirer's report.
Robert Singerman, a University of Florida scholar whose "Jewish Press" article in Jewish-American History and Culture: An Encyclopedia surveys the field, writes that "approximately 2,500 dailies, weeklies, monthlies, quarterlies, bulletins and annual reports . . . have been published in most of the 50 states."
The oldest continuously published Jewish paper in the United States is Cincinnati's American Israelite, founded in 1854. Philadelphia papers have included Isaac Leeser's Occident and American Jewish Advocate (1843-69).
Singerman also reflects on some standard criticisms of the weekly Jewish American press, referred to as "weaklies" by nonadmirers. He notes that many papers "rely almost exclusively" on copy from the Jewish Telegraphic Agency ("the AP of Jewish journalism," says Tobin) for nonlocal Jewish news.
Singerman observes that "more often than not, local 'news' is a bland potpourri of self-congratulatory press releases prepared by institutional public relations specialists." Some weeklies, he warns, "become subjugated to the local Jewish federation's fund-raising."
That last line is a reason I was much more comfortable joining The Jewish Journal, which broke away from Federation funding a few years back. And we might not have a huge staff or fleet of foreign correspondents—though we have a few of each—but I think we get along pretty respectably. Correct me or congratulate my colleagues.

The New York Times has been on the gay-Muslim beat of late, with this piece from Iraq in December and this dispatch from Berlin last week.
Taken apart, each story is an interesting look at people other than Episcopalians struggling to marry their religious identity with their sexuality. Juxtaposed, however, the stories show the differences—and similarities—between being gay in an open society and a religiously violent one. From the Gayhane club in Germany:
European Muslims, so often portrayed one-dimensionally as rioters, honor killers or terrorists, live diverse lives, most of them trying to get by and to have a good time. That is more difficult if one is both Muslim and gay.
âWhen youâre here, itâs as if youâre putting on a mask, leaving the everyday outside and just having fun,â said a 22-year-old Turkish man who spoke on the condition of anonymity out of fear that he would be ostracized or worse if his family found out about his sexual orientation.
Safety and secrecy come up regularly when talking to guests, who laugh and dance, but also frequently look over their shoulders. To be a gay man or lesbian with an immigrant background invites trouble here in two very different ways.
âDepending on which part of Berlin I go to, in one I get punched in the mouth because Iâm a foreigner and in the other because Iâm a queen,â said Fatma Souad, the eventâs organizer and master of ceremonies.
That photo is of Souad, who looks a lot like Andy Dick.

2. Nebraska senator sues God3. Israeli neo-Nazis
4. Michael Vick, Paris, Britney â and Jesus
5. Tommy Thompsonâs âJews and Moneyâ comment
6. Evel Knievel born again and again
7. Kevin Everett walks
Top 10 stories of 2007
1. Annapolis conference and everything surrounding it â Hamasistan, Orthodox Jews denouncing Olmert and Avraham Burgâs apostasy
2. Religion on the presidential campaign trail â Democrats find religion, Huckabee trumpets his and Romney downplays it3. Mother Theresaâs dark nights4. Popularity of atheist books5. Anglican schism6. South Korean missionary hostages and murdered Bible sellers in Turkey and Gaza
7. Passing of Christian Right leaders Jerry Falwell and D. James Kennedy, and of the oddball Original Jew
8. Rev. Al Mohlerâs gay comment
9. Mr. Ellison goes to Washington
10. Double lashings for Saudi gang rape victim

My Dearest Kaya,
I'm writing this in April of the year 2012, skin glowing from the kiss of the Palawan sun, head still rocking from the turbulence that jostled our tiny plane as we prepared to land back in Manila.
This is the return from a trip that was initially supposed to be about widening my perspective of the ins and outs of the pearl farming industry, but I have left the islands with oceans more than a crash course in oyster reproduction. I am inclined to tell you to become a marine biologist when you grow up because of this (it seems to be a fascinating and peaceful job), but because my story is more about understanding ones natural role and purpose on this planet than anything else, let me not tinker with what your path has in store for you in a manner other than providing you with information and open mindedness.
Just to reiterate, it is 2012, which means you are 6 and I am 30. The only beach I frequented enough when I was your age to consider "home" was the island of Boracay, and considering what my serene childhood haven has transformed into, perhaps that can be the basis and catalyst for you to understand why it is imperative for me to sanctify the here and now for Palawan.
She's beautiful, my love.
Waters teeming with life in the complexity of forms, functions, and colors a thousand creative meetings could not conjure up. A thirty-minute snorkel lent me a glimpse into the lives of barracuda, squid, and needle fish – and a unique sighting of a lapu-lapu that I initially thought was growling at me, until I realized it was only bearing its teeth so the little dentist fish I finally spotted could clean them.
Nature, so simple to witness at work.
Hundreds of virtually untouched islands that lend us a glimpse into what the world might have looked like before it was seen by eyes of man - man whose hands found ways to use the land, failing to understand the repercussions of haste and waste. There are sides of mountains shaved of greenery, like a bald spot on a head otherwise full of hair. The orange-brown earth almost neon in its disruptiveness. This is the result of the slashing and burning of trees by villagers that are not in tune with the long-term side effects of a seemingly resourceful act.
The fish in tanks at Chinese restaurants? My love, do not eat them, for in order for these fish to look appetizing (sans hook marks or missing scales, which are brandings of natural rod and net fishing), they are drugged with cyanide, scooped out of the water in their incapacitated state, and hauled onto illegal Chinese fishing boats bobbing on the water in the black of night.
Nature, so unarmed to defend itself from violation.
Pearl of the Orient
The name was bestowed upon our nation by the West, which, considering the Perlas ng Silanganan inclusion in our national anthem, I would not have guessed. But there is much that the average Filipino does not know; that the pearl is our national gem, for example, or that the highly revered beauty that is the golden South Sea pearl – used by the Cartiers and Tiffanys of this world – is mostly produced in Philippine waters. Which means nearly anytime you see a perfectly round, large, lustrous, smooth, and distinctly gold pearl in jewelry shop windows along the high streets of Paris and New York, you can smile and say "ours".
But the pride, my dear child, is not merely of the surface kind. Much like a tree trunk tells us a story with it's rings of age, the nacre layers of the pearl are a time capsule of both beauty and travesty that our country goes through – altered by every earthquake, volcanic eruption, and typhoon. Each little gem holds the weight of a nation's tale – boasting perfection, if it was a year of peace (or otherwise).
Which is why symbiosis between man and nature in Palawan is an artful balance, a beautiful dance of reciprocity that must be respected, and perfected with time. Currently, the Save Palawan Seas Foundation is educating communities on how to make a living without having to resort to dynamite fishing or scalping the terrain. When I visited, townsfolk were being taught recipes for various cashew products; polvoron, honey glazed nuts, or even wine and prunes from the cashew fruit. Organic farming, too, is one of the alternate sources of both income and food, which is a massive breakthrough in education for a community that has been swayed by advertising to believe that the canned food they cannot afford is actually healthy for their children. (This shocked me!) Thankfully, the result of eating organically farmed vegetables is beginning to take shape in these vicinities, where once stick thin youngsters with bloated bellies, are now visions of optimum health.
I hope you get the chance to visit the islands years from now with this letter in mind, and come back to me with a smile on your face. Not a Boracay smile, which is one of bars and resorts, camaraderie and loud music, and drinking til dawn — but a Palawan smile, which is smile of serenity and inner peace, understanding of nature, and alignment with the Universe.
I have attached many pictures to this letter. If you can dedicate your life to making sure the ones you take 20 years from now look just like mine, I promise you, it will be a life well lived.
I love you very much.

Woodward Dream Cruise -- The main event of muscle and power
Annual Woodward Dream Cruise draws flocks of cars of all makes and models
Greg Migliore
Classic Corvettes again crowded Detroit's famed Woodward Avenue on Saturday for the 17th-annual Woodward Dream Cruise.
Classic Corvettes again crowded Detroit's famed Woodward Avenue on Saturday for the 17th-annual Woodward Dream Cruise.
Woodward Avenue was reignited on Saturday for Detroit's annual summer festival of muscle cars and all-American sheetmetal.
After days of preliminary events, parades, car shows and early cruising, the main event took shape as thousands of classic cars and an estimated crowd of more than a million enthusiasts from around the country flocked to the boulevard that helped popularize the allure of fins, chrome and raw power.
The event began in the mid-1990s and now is in its 17th year. The Woodward Dream Cruise began as a fundraiser for a soccer field and has turned into a national event.
The event is free to attend and drive in, though Chevrolet was a corporate sponsor this year, and Chrysler and Ford both had prominent displays. Though marketing and media efforts have intensified in recent years, the Dream Cruise remains one of the most grassroots and informal large-scale events in the country.
This year--and every year--the event featured a procession of Ford Mustangs, Chevy Camaros, Covettes and Impalas and a wide section of Mopar muscle--including scores of Dodge Chargers and Challengers. Camaros, Falcons, Coronets and tuner cars and hot-rods of all makes and models prowled the avenue. Some got away with burnouts, though, as always, there was a heavy police presence. It's a rolling car show, and nearly all eras and makes are represented.
The crowds began filing in in the early morning as the sun heated up, and by midday, the event was packed along Woodward. This year also celebrated the centennial of Chevrolet, and Ford rolled out its Focus ST concept from the auto-show circuit. The also was a wide array of novelty cars, plus movie vehicles, including the General Lee from The Dukes of Hazard.
Michigan collector Ken Lingenfelter was displaying several of his Camaros customized to look like Pontiacs, dubbed T.A.s. He takes modern Chevys and modifies them with grilles and bodies, usually adding an extra does of horsepower.
"We're so focused on building horsepower and having a good time with it," he said as he stood a few feet from the Woodward curb.
Power and fun. That's a fitting mantra for the Woodward Dream Cruise. The event is about putting history and nostalgia in motion.
Another local collector, Larry Fallat, perhaps best summed up the mood of the event and his 1963 Sting Ray by noting, "It's a driver."
And for the 17th straight year, so is the Woodward Dream Cruise.

My BF bought me this watch for my birthday last year, and I absolutely LOVE it! I am constantly complimented on it no matter where I am. I even have guy friends constantly staring at my watch in amazement at how gorgeous it is. It is a bit on the heavy side but after a full week, you should adjust to it. It is definitely worth buying!
C - you might have been looking at a different model. the stones are well placed in this one, and it's not lightweight (quite heavy, it's nice!)
I had contemplated ordering this watch. I went to a store and looked at it in person and the rhinestones/placement on this watch are poorly made. The rhinestones are slightly smaller than the hole it was made for so some of the rhinestones appear to have a black ring around it because the rhinestones are too small for the mount. It's a ightweight rose gold watch and the only deal breaker are the quality/placement of the rhinestones.
getting a few links removed so I can start wearing this tomorrow. gorgeous watch! great match for white gold jewelry :)
love love love it!!

Diagnosis and Treatment | CRC Symptoms | Diagnostic Tests | Staging | Stay in Touch with us
People come to an initial medical work-up for colon or rectal cancer from different places. They may have had a suspicious polyp or cancer found during a routine screening. They may be experienced symptoms that might be caused by colorectal cancer. Getting an accurate diagnosis is critical because treatment for colorectal cancer depends on the diagnosis. For example, treatment for colon cancer is different than treatment for rectal cancer, and treatment for cancer which has spread outside of the colon is different than treatment for cancer which is limited to the colon. Getting an accurate diagnosis can take time and many different tests. It may require surgery, and examination of surgically-removed tissue to determine whether the cancer has spread. This process can involve several health professionals including:
- The gastroenterologist who will perform a colonoscopy if it has not been already done and remove tissue for biopsy. The gastroenterologist may remove suspicious polyps for pathology or, if they are large, leave them in place for later surgical removal.
- Pathologists who will examine biopsies under the microscope to identify precancerous cells or cancer (malignancy.)
- Radiologists who will perform CT-scans or other x-ray tests to see if the cancer has spread to other parts of your body.
- A general surgeon or colorectal surgeon who will give you a physical examination and ask about your medical history, order blood tests, review reports from gastroenterologist, radiologist, and pathology, and help decide on an initial treatment plan.
- If necessary, a medical oncologist who deals with chemotherapy treatment or a radiation oncologist may be involved at this point or they may join the treatment team after surgery. Specialized surgeons may also be called in to examine you if there is a possibility that the cancer has spread beyond your colon.
Choosing a medical team is an important initial step in getting an accurate diagnosis, especially if rectal surgery is involved. Work with your medical team to make sure that your evaluation, diagnosis, and staging are done carefully and thoroughly.. Get a second opinion if there is uncertainty about issues such as what tests are necessary, if surgery is the right first step, and whether staging is accurate. A second opinion at a large cancer center, particularly a National Cancer Institute designated cancer cancer or a member of the National Comprehensive Cancer Network can be valuable even early in the diagnostic process.
- Locate an NCI Cancer Center in your state.
- Locate an NCCN Comprehensive Cancer Center

Here's a quick roundup of some of the highlights we've seen online. Good luck for the coming weekend and remember, every kilometre counts!
Here is a selection of some of the highlights so far:

That was an amazing challenge and I worked hard for every single km mostly in wind and driving sleet! But wouldn't have it any other way! :)

Interface Modules
Separation of wiring and function level.Nowadays when equipment is designed many scenarios need to be considered. Some of which are user and maintenance friendly, limited budgets, safety, availibility, and simplicity in design and usage.
These demands are more than satisfied by the different WAGO interface modules in their various designs, such as pluggable function and interface modules, narrow relay and optocoupler modules and modern, high efficiency switched-mode power supply units.
Interface module advantages:
- The components are pluggable - reducing installation time.
- Exchange or adjust components easily and trouble-free.
- Reduce costs and compact design with smaller optocouplers and relay modules.
- Decrease error rates by exchanging modules with standardized interfaces.
Charging Infrastructure for eMobility
The Pilot-Box is the heart of an efficient and modern charging station, providing safe EV charging from the AC grid.Current Transformers – UL Certification for Current Measurement
UL-certified 855 Series Plug-In Current Transformers join WAGO's product line for energy management applications.0–140A Current Sensor
With 0–140A measurement range, WAGO's 789-621 Current Sensors are ideal for monitoring PV systems.JUMPFLEX System Series 857
Transducers and Relay ModulesThe perfect match of housing and electronics is the key factor for a highly successful device. This is exactly what has been achieved by WAGO with the new transducers and relay modules of the Series 857. With a module width of "true" 6.0 millimeters, the transducers and relay modules of the WAGO Series 857 are the smallest in the industry.

We have a large number of permanent training staff. We believe this is essential to maintain consistency and quality in our courses and to develop new materials and approaches to language learning and teaching. We currently employ 18 permanent trainers. We also use fixed-term contract trainers for shorter periods as well as carefully selected freelance trainers. In this way we are able to maximize our flexibility and ensure that staff experience and expertise precisely match the client's needs
All our trainers have the Cambridge ESOL Certificate in Teaching English as a Foreign Language to Adults (CELTA), or equivalent, as a minimum. Most of our permanent training staff have the Cambridge ESOL Diploma in Teaching English as a Foreign Language to Adults (DELTA) as well. A number of our trainers also hold an MA in Teaching English as a Foreign Language or Applied Linguistics.
In addition to a qualification in English Language Teaching, a number of our trainers hold a professional qualification in other professional fields such as finance and law. This previous background can be very valuable when working on Individual Tuition programmes in their client's field.
The average age of our training staff is around 41. The average experience of English language training to international students, including service in this school and previous experience is 12 years. Trainers have usually taught abroad as well as in Britain.
Professional development is a priority for us: trainers regularly have time out of class to work on new programmes, materials and techniques. Staff regularly attend in-service training seminars.
It is not easy to get a job at The London School of English. Our clients get the best because we employ the best.
We pay the closest possible attention to the quality of training. Our trainers are supported by a Courses Management team who are all DELTA qualified, some with a MA TEFL qualification as well.

Buckle Up New York Campaign
Buckle Up New York is a statewide, zero tolerance enforcement campaign designed to increase safety restraint use in New York State. Although New York State enacted the first mandatory safety belt use law in the nation in 1984, it is estimated that today only about 84 percent of New York State motorists always wear safety restraints. The ongoing Buckle Up New York campaign works to continually increase this use rate.
If successful, the campaign will save an estimated 148 lives and more than $400 million dollars in economic costs to the public each year, and decrease the deaths, injuries, and property damage resulting from crashes on our highways.
Wearing a safety restraint can save your life!
Contrary to widespread public perception, failure to buckle up was an even greater factor in highway deaths than alcohol involvement in 2003.
Automotive engineers and highway safety professionals have long known that wearing safety belts is the most effective means of preventing death and minimizing injuries in motor vehicle crashes. As such, they are effective at protecting occupants regardless of the ultimate cause of the crash.
Safety belts and child restraints are the best way in which all motorists can protect themselves against all highway threats, including drunk drivers and aggressive drivers.

Jefferson County Sheriff Peter Walker has identified the woman found dead in the cemetery of East Mount Olive Baptist Church Wednesday night.
Information contained on this page is provided by companies via press release distributed through PR Newswire, an independent third-party content provider. PR Newswire, WorldNow and this Station make no warranties or representations in connection therewith.
LANSING, Mich., March 4, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- TWO MEN AND A TRUCK®, the largest franchised moving company in the U.S., is pleased to announce its system has donated more than $2 million in moving services in 2012.
Long known as the Movers Who Care®, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® locations across the country, as well as the Home Office located in Lansing, Mich., strive to continuously give back to the communities around them through various community service projects.
Franchisee Jason Judson (St. Louis, Mo.; Ogden, Utah; Salt Lake City East, Salt Lake City, West, Utah) said his St. Louis location donated more than $76,000 worth of moving services in 2012. Judson's charitable efforts in 2011 won his franchise the system's Humanitarian award.
"Our community is the reason we wake up every day and come to work. If it wasn't for our community, we would not have a thriving business and be able to employ so many great people," he said. "Giving back to the community that makes us thrive is part of our core beliefs."
Judson's core beliefs, along with the entire TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® system, support the very way the company came about more than 20 years ago when Founder Mary Ellen Sheets donated her entire profit in her first year of business – $100 to 10 different charities. Today, it gives her great pride to see franchises across the system donating to those who truly need it.
"I cannot convey how proud I am TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® has been able to follow my original intent to be a company that gives back to the community and help others," she said. "Of course, with our growth, we have a much larger impact today than when we only had one truck!"
TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® is the largest franchised moving company in North America. It includes more than 230 locations and over 1,400 trucks on the road. Each location is independently owned and operated, and sells boxes and packing supplies. Locations complete both home and business moves, as well as packing and unpacking services. Along with donating moves to those in need, TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® also gives 10 cents of every move to the American Cancer Society. Since the company started giving to the ACS, more than $380,000 has been raised.
For more information, call the TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® home office at (517) 394-7210 or read more about TWO MEN AND A TRUCK® community service.

After last year's thorough and successful revamp, the 2013 Genghis Khan MTB Adventure & Grassland Marathon will largely retain the race courses, in agreement with the local authorities. However, there are a few exciting modifications, too. A brief report from last week's Technical Mission in Xiwuqi.
Genghis Khan MTB Adventure & Grassland Extreme Marathon
BV Sport crowns the King of the Grasslands
BV Sport, considered among elite athletes to be the reference in compression and recovery support products, will crown the King and Queen of the Grasslands in Xiwuqi this July. The French company is the latest sponsor of the 2013 Genghis Khan Festival, and will particularly promote the new KOG challenge. Nordic Ways is very grateful for receiving BV Sport's support.
Launch of the Cannondale Cannonball
The Genghis Khan MTB Adventure introduces an exciting novelty in this year's race: the Cannondale Cannonball. A daily intermediate sprint shortly after the start with cash prizes for the fastest three men and women. Brought to you exclusively by our new bike sponsor Cannondale!
Focus on Athlete: Ji Xinli
As we previously highlighted in our Focus on Athlete series, a few people already accomplished last year what is now officially introduced as the King of the Grasslands competition: three days of long distance MTB + the Grassland Marathon. Previously we shed the spotlight on Hauke Stockrahm, now it is the turn of China's Ji Xinli.
Logistics: EXTRA bus from Beijing
Recently, Air China moved its morning return flight schedule from Beijing to Xilinhot forward by more than one hour, posing us with a logistical challenge for runners with travel packages opting to leave the grasslands on Sunday morning. In order to make these people's visit in Xiwuqi as rewarding as possible, Nordic Ways can introduce an extra bus service from Beijing and back.

Hi All,
I got to see Ski Flying 101. I found it a great primer for anyone that has never done it. It has some great tips. I would have rathered seen the Top Cub doing the flying but the J3 was great. I believe that Damian was slightly hamstrung by off airport operations in New Jersey being disallowed so allot was seen as groomed landings at Trinca. But this is exactly what Damian said it would be is a primer.
It would be great to see the like Likes of Damian and or Mike Vivian have an ongoing informational post here about various operations that ratchet you up to the next level. Deep snow and of course Lake and River.
It is touched on in Skiflying 101 but an advanced off airport dicussion needs to happen.
If you are thinking of doing ski flying this DVD is well worth it for the quick tips alone.
