The Celestial Railroad and Other Stories
Nathaniel Hawthorne - Author
Ross C. Murfin - Introduction by
Of Nathaniel Hawthorne's insight into the Puritan's simultaneous need for fulfillment and self-destruction, D. H. Lawrence wrote, "Nathaniel knew disagreeable things in his inner soul. He was careful to send them out in disguise." By means of artfully crafted and compelling tales, Hawthorne explored the destinies and concerns of early American settlers and citizens. In several of the stories in this collection, characters who hold themselves apart from their fellow man fall prey to the corroding desires of lust for perfection. Then they unwittingly commit evils—against themselves and others—in the name of pride. Edgar Allan Poe noted of Hawthorne's writing: "Every word tells, and there is not a word which does not tell." "He is an aesthetic solitary. His beautiful, light imagination is the wing that on the autumn evening just brushes the dusky window."—Henry James |

Jerrie Williams is a blogger on the Beauregard Daily News website. The name of her blog is C.O.P.E. Community Organized Parents in Education. This blog is syndicated statewide to all GateHouse websites. She will not only be blogging about local education concerns, but information about resources for parental research on different subjects concerning children and their well being. Jerrie Williams is the mother of three autistic children. Her journey began in 1999, when she discovered that her children were not developing according to the national mind stone charts. This was after they had received immunizations and developed reactions to them. She later learned the immunizations contained an agent that her children were allergic to, which led to their developmental delays. She moved her children to Georgia to be treated by a specialist in autism and brain injury in 2000. Since then she has been searching and discovering several research-based interventions and resources to educate, support and assist in the recovery of autism. She moved to Louisiana in August, 2011, and has been involved in educating the community about autism and the resources available to parents of autistic children as well as adults with autism. She has been instrumental in helping the Beauregard Parish school system to design an individualized curriculum that was suited for the educational needs of her children as well as other special needs children. Her children have since blossomed with this curriculum and continue to thrive. She will continue in her journey as a mother and an advocate for others.
Surely through his years as a vigilante killer, Dexter probably never considered facing this conundrum: Dexter's titular serial killer will have to choose between his sister and the woman who could possibly be the love of his life.
Is speed the new suspense on TV?
Following Deb's (Jennifer Carpenter) confrontation in which she threatened to expose Hannah (Yvonne Strahovski) for being a murderer, Hannah will attempt to prevent that in this Sunday's episode (9/8c, Showtime). This will force Dexter (Michael C. Hall) to investigate whether his new girlfriend is trying to off his sister, and may eventually lead to him choosing a side.
"I do think he's going to have to," Hall tells TVGuide.com. "He'll be forced to make a choice because of the opposing forces of Hannah and Deb. He's going to be backed into a corner. We have to see him work his way out of it."
But Dexter will also have bigger fish to fry this week. La Guerta (Lauren Velez) and Matthews (Geoffrey Pierson) will continue their investigation into whether Dexter could be the famed Bay Harbor Butcher, which will send Dexter on a mission to throw them off his trail. "At the beginning of [Sunday's] episode, Matthews sits down with Dexter to let him in on this investigation and probably gauge his response," Hall says. "The show is always particularly compelling when Dexter's in trouble and he's really in trouble on every front this season. We like watching him think on his feet and improvise and manipulate situations to his advantage. That'll be no different when it comes to negotiating his way through the minefield that is Matthews and LaGuerta's investigation."
Dexter Scoop: How does Deb's admission change everything?
Their investigation may conflict with Dexter's need to finally kill the man responsible for his mother's death. But even if Dexter does get that chance, will he be content to finally truly hang up his knives for good afterwards? "Dexter, I think, has that fantasy," Hall says. "He flashes forward and imagines his life with Hannah. I don't know if he ever thinks that that won't be a part of his life. Dexter fantasized that Trinity [John Lithgow] would be his last kill. Of course, it didn't work out that way. But I do think that Dexter imagines that killing the last surviving member of the crew who did his mother in will close some sort of door.
"If he does continue to kill after that, it will be about who he's discovered himself to be, not about fighting old demons, if that's a distinction that you can make. As you can imagine, it probably won't work out the way he plans it."
Do you think Dexter could ever give up being a serial killer? Should he choose Deb or Hannah?
Dexter airs Sundays at 9/8c on Showtime.

these are great
I love these. I have a 5 yr old who sometimes still wets the bed. I put the mat on top of the mattress cover but under the fitted sheet. Before I was washing both the sheet and mattress cover when he had an accident. And sometimes having to air out the mattress because my waterproof cover is not waterproof! Now I just change the sheet. I love them so he does have to wear nite time pants and he could go for weeks without wetting and the unused pad stay there! Just change after accident.

Actually use these as changing mats when out and about with baby - usually end up re-using them a few times before throwing out. Much more hygienic when using public changing tables then non-disposable mats. They are also the bigger then dedicated "disposable change mats" so very handy when baby gets bigger :)

No longer buying these
These were good for years but now they have removed the huge flaps which tucked under the mattress either side and given us sticky strips. We use belt and braces so we have a protective fitted sheet on the mattress then a bed mat then a normal fitted sheet over the top. The new sticky tabs on the bed mats removed the protection from the protective fitted sheet. This is quite expensive to replace as it is a fabric one not a plastic sweaty one. I buy their competitors bed mats now.

Not so good now they've been changed
I have used these for some time with my eldest and loved them but sadly they have been changed, no longer do they wrap underneath the mattress but now they are smaller and have sticky corners which come unstuck from the mattress and stick to the dry nite making it unusable. ok if your child wets more often than not but i wont buy any more

Spring Into National Nutrition Month®
In addition to the official start of spring, March is National Nutrition Month®. This year it's all
about enjoying the taste of healthy eating – it doesn't have to mean sacrificing on flavor. Try
these simple tweaks to classic "diet foods" to make them not only nutritious, but also delicious!
- Yogurt
Flavored yogurts are often high in sugar, but plain yogurt can be a little boring. Try adding a handful of fresh berries or some sliced up banana for some natural sweetness. Added bonus: plain yogurt can also be a healthy substitute for sour cream. - Salad
Jazz up your salad with healthy toppings – hardboiled egg, edamame, artichoke hearts, beets, orange wedges, pomegranate seeds; the possibilities are endless! Instead of croutons, add some crunch to your salad with walnuts halves or slivered almonds for a heart-healthy benefit. - Chicken breast
Chicken doesn't have to be bland to be healthy. Herbs can go a long way in dressing up even the simplest dish. Rosemary, sage, and thyme pair especially well with baked chicken breasts, and they're available in the grocery stores year round. - Oatmeal
Instead of scrimping on taste, add some healthy toppings to your oatmeal! A small
handful of mixed nuts not only adds flavor, it also adds protein and healthy fat to make
for a well-rounded, balanced breakfast. For a little sweetness, try adding some dried fruit. - Spinach
Looking to increase your vegetable intake but not a big fan of steamed greens? Add a
couple handfuls of spinach to your morning smoothie. Spinach is tender and slightly
sweet, making it an easy ingredient to mix in. The color isn't the most appealing, but we
promise the taste makes up for it.

Where Membership Means: Finding My Ironman/woman
Completing a triathlon is a big accomplishment. Not everyone has that on their resume or even on their bucket list for that matter, but it may not be as impossible as you think. Read on to find out how FFC members Matt & Jenny got started and what they have accomplished since. You may just find yourself inspired, and we have the perfect opportunity – the 15th Annual Fitness Formula Clubs Indoor Triathlon Series!
Matt: My FFC story started after I moved to Chicago in 2006. One of my friends told me he had just run a half marathon, and while I admired his accomplishment, I didn't understand how anyone could run 13.1 miles. I had never run further than four or five. So I started running more regularly, gradually going a little farther each time. I enjoyed the physical challenge that running offered and the feeling of accomplishment I got with each limit I surpassed. Then, a co-worker asked if I wanted to run the Chicago Marathon with her. I said I wasn't interested, again thinking I wouldn't be able to run that far. A few weeks later, I changed my mind and signed up. In order to accomplish what seemed impossible, I needed to find a way to push my limits and get stronger, so I joined FFC.
Going to the gym became a part of my training regimen. Not only did strength training make my runs better, but I started to feel more confident in my everyday life. My membership helped me to define the character that I needed in order to complete the marathon, an accomplishment I didn't think I was capable of before joining FFC. I finished six more marathons in the next few years. With each race, I improved my time and set a new personal best.
My membership at FFC gave me the opportunity to find fun ways to explore and expand my fitness. I took cardio kickboxing and core strengthening classes. I tried yoga for the first time and even became a regular in the back row of the hip hop dance class. Being a member at FFC inspired me to make healthier decisions in other aspects of my life. Regular exercise helped me feel more confident, which helped me find ways to make improvements in my personal and professional life.
In 2011, I was introduced to a sweet, athletic blonde. A mutual friend thought we would have a lot in common, given our similar interests in endurance sports and exercise. She was training for an Ironman Wisconsin, which impressed and inspired me. I had never done a triathlon, but had seen the Ironman World Championships on television and was completely in awe. Running a marathon was hard enough, but having to do it after swimming 2.4 miles and cycling 112? I didn't understand how that was possible…until I watched her cross the finish line. The next day, I waited in line and signed up for the race the following year.
I had switched my gym membership from FFC to a more budget-friendly beefcake factory. After signing up for the Ironman, I canceled it and re-joined FFC. More than ever before, it was important that my gym be conveniently located, open early in the morning, have the amenities and equipment that I needed, and not be so loud and crowded that I had a hard time focusing on my workouts efficiently. Many strength workouts, yoga classes, and countless laps in the pool later, I crossed the finish line at Ironman Wisconsin in 2012, an accomplishment that was impossible prior to rejoining FFC. One year later, I completed another 140.6 mile journey in Louisville, improving my time and setting my personal best.
Since I first joined FFC in 2006, then again in 2011, being a member at FFC has helped me cross the finish line in races and accomplish goals that I didn't think were possible. In the process, I've become healthier and have built the strength and endurance to pursue greater achievements. My membership at FFC gives me the confidence to continuously improve, and explore what is possible in an effort to achieve my personal best.
Jenny: When I was a little kid, I was the girl out playing sports with the boys. I LOVED being active. I started playing competitive tennis at the age of 8. When I went to college, I didn't want to play tennis anymore. I stayed active and took my eating habits OVERBOARD. I literally starved myself for 2 years and weighed a solid 88 pounds for most of those 2 years. Scary. After I realized what I was doing to myself, I went the complete opposite way and gained 60 pounds and graduated 2 years later at 155 pounds. It was so unhealthy.
After graduating from college, I knew I had to do something about my eating habits. Starving. Binging. It was bad. It took me a few years, but after getting active at my local gym, I started to level off with my weight. There was something still missing, though. I overheard a woman twice my age talking about doing a triathlon. Bingo! My competitive nature made me jump. I had no clue how to swim and had a crappy old mountain bike, but did my first triathlon about 7 years ago. I thought I was going to die, but finished and was hooked immediately.
Since then, triathlons have changed my life. The time I train is quality time with myself, which makes me a better person to my family, friends, and co-workers. It has taught me how to view food as fuel. Not eating enough kills my performance, eating too much does the same. I eat more now than I ever have, but I'm in the best shape of my life. Learning how to eat meals, not be afraid of food, and listening to my body has made all the difference.
Since starting triathlons several years ago, I've had the opportunity to do some really cool races. I've recently qualified to represent Team USA next year at the Duathlon World Championship in Pontevedra, Spain. Racing at a higher level year over year gives me confidence, and FFC allows me a space to train in order to achieve those goals. This is something I'm so passionate about, and I hope that by sharing my story, I can help others going through the same things I had.

Three federal agencies--the Food and Drug Administration, the Department of Agriculture and the Environmental Protection Agency--have primary responsibility for the regulation of biotechnology products. At least ten different laws and numerous agency regulations and guidelines cover such products as food, animal feed, human and animal drugs and biologics, pesticides, plant pests and toxic substances. Each of these laws was developed before the advent of biotechnology products and reflects widely different regulatory approaches and procedures.
This report is intended to provide a general descriptive guide to the current set of U.S. laws and regulations under which products of biotechnology are reviewed for health, safety, efficacy, or environmental impacts.

Rarely do Robert De Niro and Tommy Lee Jones take a back seat.
De Niro's a two-time Academy Award winner and was nominated as recently as last year for his supporting role in "Silver Linings Playbook." Jones, also nominated for a supporting actor Oscar in 2012 for "Lincoln," is another Academy Award winner.
This weekend, though, the two heavyweights will be supplanted by horror in the form of "Insidious Chapter 2." The horror sequel's expected to draw $41 million at the domestic box office, which would make it the biggest U.S. opening since July's "Wolverine."
By comparison, "Insidious" opened to $13.2 million in April 2011. The sequel returns director James Wan, who also did July's super-successful "Conjuring," writer Leigh Whannell, and stars Patrick Wilson and Rose Byrne.
On the indie circuit, the critically acclaimed "Ain't Them Bodies Saints," with stars Casey Affleck and Rooney Mara, comes to Film Streams.

Thank you for these great suggestions! I'll let you know how she likes them =)
Good luck!
It's always good to hear about kids' books written by Spanish-speakers instead of just translated from the English.
They are sometimes really hard to find, though. But I do think that some translations are excellent. It usually depends on the translator...

I wouldn't trade Revis for another reason, he's coming off ACL surgery and is at perhaps his lowest value to the Jets in a trade. If they trade a CB it should be Cro who had a fantastic year and will fetch a much better return at this point.
Obviously they should wait until they are certain Revis is suitably recovered before doing anything. Bottom line if our DL progresses like it should the pass rush will be better next year and you can live w/o two shutdown corners. I would just make sure we upgraded on Kyle Wilson through a mid tier FA.
The Jets have too many holes especially on offense , you can't restock a team w/o either tanking and accumulating picks or making bold moves to sure up weaknesses.

Chopard Happy Fish Bag, Handbag of the Day
Filed under: Handbags
Chopard may be better known for timepieces and jewelry, but their collection of accessories does include a few lovely handbags and wallets. This is the Happy Fish Bag, made from grained calf leather and cotton canvas. Compared to other bags in this price range, this one seems rather lightweight and skimpy on the leather, but it does have the cute factor. The bag features little fish cut-outs as well as metal and resin fish hardware. With a simple flap closure, the bag might be rather spare, but it is definitely unique. $520.

How To Start Volunteering?
Most people think that volunteering means going to school and teaching or working with slums or going and doing some health checkups in unhygenic places. It seems more like a serious affair which requires lot of commitment and saying no to all the cool things that you might do in life. Of course volunteering requires some amount of commitment, but it is not as boring as you may think. There are numerous fun ways to volunteer. Also voluntering does not necessary mean that you have to spend some fixed time every day or every week. There are opportunities available from one off volunteering effort to a weekly effort. Below I have tried to categorize some of the volunteering possibilities based on time you can spare. So if you are thinking of volunteering and dont know where and when to start, one of these could be your starting point. (Since I am from Bangalore India, most of the volunteering opportunities listed here are from Bangalore, or nearby areas. But I am sure such kind of volunteering exists in other places as well. So if you are looking for some such opportunity other than Bangalore do drop in a mail at goli-at-ngopost.org, or drop in the comment below, we will try our best to connect you to the right place)
I cant commit anytime, I want to volunteer once in a while when I get time.
* Organize a Blood donation camp in your office. This is the simplest thing to do. There are NGOs like Sankalp, you just have to give a call to them and they will do the rest for you.
* Collect toys from your building and hand them over to the Toy Bank. Toy Bank is an NGO which collects toys and distributes them to various orphanages and schools. You could also spend some hours on weekend in Toy Bank in sorting the toys, and gift packing them.
• Take children to parks/educational tours. Kilikili is one organization which organizes such events for special children. There are numerous schools like Ananya , who are looking for people who can take children for one day half a day education tour to some factory/park/museum.
I can spend couple of hours to spare on weekdays
• Spend sometime in gift wrapping toys collected for distributing to less privileged kids through Toybank.
• Extra coaching to Residential schools like Deena Seva Sangha, Nele.
• Spend some time with old people in some of the Old Age Homes in the city, Om Aashram, Little Sisters of the Poor and Anand Aashram.
• Take spoken English classes to community women for 2 hours a day whenever you are free at Makkala Jagriti.
• Spend time with special children at the Sunshine Centre for Autism. Work with children from the Shrishti Special Academy and Association for people with disability.
I can work only on weekends
• If you like teaching, Prerana could be the place for you. Prerana is an Institute which supports higher education of poor meritorious students along with counseling them for choosing their courses.
• Reading books for blind children, recording cassettes for Blind children. An organization called Samarthanam works on this.
• Vidyanikethan runs a program called "Teach the teachers" wherein you and go and teach the teachers on various different subjects
I cant travel I want to do something from home
• You can translate books or documents/books/comics which are not available in local languages.
• You can try to design projects for children which help then in understanding concepts better, like a project or exercise to teach multiplication or solar system. It can be anything. This is required by lot of NGOs who are involved in teaching.
• You can write for NGOPost.
I want to do something related to art, performing
• There is a group called WEMOVE, which does theatre solely for fund raising for various NGOs.
• You could make films for various NGOs, which would help them in their fund raising drives.
I am a NERD, and want to do something related to computers
• There are numerous NGOs who need help in setting up their websites, and putting some basic Content Management Systems in place. They are ready to do work, you just have to guide.
• Maintaining PCs and networks for NGOs. Becoming a System Administrator for some.
I want to do marketing for NGOs
• Numerous orphanges, childrens organizations, TB patients, make a variety of things, starting from Greeting cards to handbags to candles. Just pick some of them and put it at the office reception for sale. Or you can invite the people and they will come to your office and put the stalls (in lunch room??)

Thanks goli for coming up with such an exhaustive list. I will go through it once more later and try adding points (If I find any!)
This is a really useful compilation. I want to add a point for those who want to do their two cents 'virtually' - i.e. from home/office using the computer/internet.
- You could work on building or expanding the syllabus and teaching material of education programs which could be computer education, analytical reasoning, communication skills or life skills (money management, etc.). I know from a personal experience that this is a real value-add in many places.
Great compilation. I can add a few more organizations where one can volunteer. Again these would be based in Bangalore.
-If you have weekends , you can visit Balwadis supported by Akshara foundation. These are preschools for slum children aged between 4-6 and run by local volunteers trained by akshara. You can visit these balwadis on saturdays and spend some time with the children, playing with them, teaching.
-you can volunteer in Akshara's libraries. (www.aksharafoundation.org)
-Volunteer time at an old age home eg. Little sisters of the Poor on Hosur roads. All that these people want is some time from us.
-start collection drives in office/home. You can donate old books to hippocampus, old clothes at Missionaries of Charity, Rakum School for Blind, old newspapers to Association of People with Disablility(APD).
Another organisation is Karunashram.The website link is www.karunashram.com. It is related to animal welfare with opportunities for volunteering all over India
One can also conduct eye donation/pledging camps in the office/housing colony. NGOs like Sankalp [http://sankalpindia.net/drupal/?q=node/280] and Prabha eye clinic [http://www.prabhaeyeclinic.com/index2.html] would bear most of the burden of running the show.
I know a lot of NGOs in Delhi and Kolkatta. If anybody wants to do anything we can link them up
It would be great if you could add some of the names here. It would be great as people would get to know about this opportunities.
iltaja is an organisation which is based in east delhi,they work on health focussing mainly on polio and tuberclosis, also in educating children,
-New Beginning,Goonj,operation asha to name a few in delhi and in kolkatta its tomorrow's foundation,future hope and new beginning in kolkatta as well.
anybody who wants to volunteer in delhi or Kolkatta and get in touch with us and we will help in find a placement
Good one Goli. The Sattva link mentioned doesn't work... For everyone else, you may always visit www.ivolunteer.in to know about various opportunities available for various issues in Mumbai, Delhi, Chennai and Bangalore!!! Lots to do people. We need massive no. of volunteers to change the fortune of our country!!!
http://www.itihas.org.in/SattvaSeptember2007.pdf - SATTVA link
goli please can u tell me some pune based organisations for volunteering.
What a great list! I just had a couple of things I wanted to add. I live in Canada and volunteer once a week at a hospital with my dog. So for any animal lovers out there being part of a dog therapy program is a great way to spend your time. It really cheers up the patients and you get to spend time with your pet. The Canadian website is http://www.sja.ca/Pages/default.aspx?gclid=CKuf7py_u5cCFQHBDAodqEiZSg but I am sure there are different organizations who do this around the world.
Also, for anyone who wants to spend 2 weeks to a few months doing a one time volunteer program going abroad is a great way to boost up your resume, get some real experience in whatever you are interested in and have an awsome life changing experience. I run a small charity called Action Volunteer Alliance. We send volunteers to work in Nepal. Check our www.actionvolunteeralliance.com.
I put up in Mumbai(Chembur) and wish to volunteer over the weekends. Anything like helping people,teaching etc would be great. Could someone guide me how I can go about it?
I would get you in touch with Pankhudi, they do lot of work related to teaching and I guess you should be able to find some place near Chembur for volunteering. Additionally we are also writing similar articles for Mumbai, pune, Delhi and all, so that would also be up in some time.
Hi Rajesh,
This list is a good start for people who are yet to start on something good. Do we have a comprehensive list of all NGOs operating all over India?
I believe a lot of them are represented here and, well yes, in Orkut.. All I'd suggest for NGOpost is like give the users an option to submit the list of NGOs they know with their contact details. From NGOPost's end, all that needs to be done is to add teh details to the list of that particular state and internally, city / village.
This will be a major step forward and will attract not only NGOs, but also potential trusts and organisations who are looking for things to do. I don't know if this option is there elsewhere, but I certainly don't see a comprehensive list on the net. They are either incomplete or with insufficient data or questionable.
NGOs and Trusts on one side, a Volunteer network that will visit the places whenever they could on the other hand, we are looking at a major network here. This will help Organisations like CIOSA etc.
We don't have miscreants here at the site, :P, so this should probably work.
Thanks for the detailed feedback. We are trying to come up the comprehensive list of the NGOs, there are some technical challenges we are facing with the website to come and accomplish that.
The most challenging thing as you said is to figure out how to keep the information up to date and working, and just figuring out appropriate model for doing the same.
One good NGO database that I keep referring to is ProPoor.org, most times their contacts are up to date and they also keep updating their website quite frequently.
hello everyone here,v useful information i am searching for.can anyone let me know some ngos in indore as i wanna do something for good cause

You guys might have noticed that I haven't blogged as much as usual the last week and a half. I've been dealing with some tough real life (real life... blah) issues, so I haven't been able to play WOW that often, which then cuts down on blogging as well. Its ironic to me that I play a healer... with all her + healing, if only K could "heal" all the crap I'm going through. :(
So I wouldn't be surprised if I take a short break from WOW and blogging until I can get my head back together. I do think that its healthy to take breaks once in a while. People get burnt out, they have life to deal with. Taking this break will hopefully bring K back ready to heal some serious ass!
Always changing probably.

hey! my daughter is five months three weeks now. she is doing great on her stage two pureed foods. i was reading some info on the puffs and i was wondering if i can give her some you know like broken in half, since they disolve in the mouth??? she seems really interested in my food and i want to give her a little "something" like a treat. has anyone tried this please let me know 1st time momma here!
I gave my daughter the puffs when she was a baby, but you really have to watch them when they're eating them. They say that they dissolve in the mouth, but they can also become lodged in the babies throat before they dissolve. I liked these better when my daughter was a little older and could actually chew them up.
I agree with the previous poster. The package says they dissolve, but the do not dissolve quickly enough to prevent choking. I wouldn't give finger foods to a baby that small. Even when my children were a little older I started them by breaking it in a few pieces first.
I was also very excited to give my little girl an extra treat. When she was six months old I would put her in her Bumpo Chair, with the tray, and give her a Wagon Wheel (by Gerber) they are too large for your baby to put it her mouth but a nice size for baby to practice holding the food and bringing it to her mouth. She would suck on it for 20 minutes. She made a big mess and LOVED it. I kept a good eye on her and never worried about her choking.
Hope that helps!
Personally, I never found that the first foods that supposedly disolve do it fast enough. My kids never got into them and I didn't really try until their teeth and chewing skills were much stronger that I could use Cheerios.
Our daughter loves the puffs. I do agree with most posters they don't dissolve super fast (I've even eaten one or two in my time so I know this personally). By the time we started giving her them a few teeth had started poking through so it helped a lot both with her ability to eat them and gave her something tasty to teeth on. If you wanted to start her on them it is probably easiest to watch her the first few times until you know if she is able to eat them without problem - also have a drink nearby for her, they make my daughter thirsty after awhile and it helps any remains dissolve too .
