Hwy 33 paved with improvements
The road to Big White is about to be improved, making Highway 33 safer for motorists.
The BC government is constructing a new southbound passing lane along the highway as well as enhancing the Big White Road intersection.
The project will involve the design and construction of a 2.9 km southbound passing and truck climbing lane on Highway 33. The new lane will start 500 metres north of the existing Big White Road intersection and end 600 metres south of brake check pullout.
The Big White Road intersection will be relocated approximately 175 metres to the south to access sightlines. The reconstructed intersection will have a left turn bay, northbound acceleration and deceleration lanes, and lighting, to improve safety for those accessing Big White Road.
"From local families heading up for a day at the mountain, to the many tourists drawn to Big White Ski Resort, to those who rely on Highway 33 for business, this intersection is well-travelled 12 months of the year," said Kelowna Lake Country MLA Norm Letick.
While Boundary-Similkameen MLA John Slater claimed, "those roads see a lot of rapidly changing winter driving conditions, often when the roads are most busy. Once complete, this will mean a safer, easier drive for residents and visitors to Big White and beyond to the boundary."
The project is valued at $11.3 million and is expected to go ahead before the spring of 2013 with scheduled completion for the end of November 2014.
This fall a $2.3-million project to resurface 11 kms of Big White Road, from 12 kms east of the Highway 33 junction to Kettle Valley Road in Big White Village, was completed.

Cedar Rapids Weather
Police Re-canvass Evansdale for Missing GirlsThe Waterloo-Cedar Falls Courier
WATERLOO, Iowa - Investigators were expected to wrap up a "re-canvassing" of neighborhoods this afternoon in an attempt to garner new information that may help find two girls that went missing from Evansdale.
Cousins Lyric Cook-Morrissey, 11, and Elizabeth Collins, 9, disappeared July 13 while on a bike ride. Their bikes and Elizabeth's purse and cell phone were found on a recreational trail along Meyers Lake. After an extensive search of homes and wooded areas and a partial draining of the lake over the following week that turned up nothing, authorities declared the case an abduction. Now past the three-month mark of the investigation, Evansdale Police Chief Kent Smock said it was time to re-interview residents, jar memories and possibly talk to people previously missed. Local enforcement officers, FBI agents and Iowa Division of Criminal Investigation personnel made contact with as many residents as possible since Tuesday morning near the lake and other places the girls may have been prior being taken. "Nothing was found the really stood out or was promising," Smock said. "If we knew where they were at, we'd go knocking on that door. We're still very hopeful; still very positive." Authorities visited between 125 to 150 homes. A rumor in town that air surveillance was ongoing is false, Smock said. Lyric and Elizabeth were last seen by Wylma Cook, the girls' grandmother, near downtown not far from Elizabeth's home on Brovan Boulevard. Despite following up on thousands of leads and contact, authorities haven't been able to locate the girls. The decision was made two weeks ago to canvass the area again. Nothing in particular triggered the latest ground search, he said. "We continue to dig for more information," Black Hawk County Sheriff Tony Thompson said. "We continue to search for details that might have been overlooked." Smock said people get the impression authorities are focusing on one thing, but that's not the case. But he said the sole purpose is to get the girls home where they belong. "It's still a very active investigation. It's the highest priority," Smock said. Anyone with information in the case is asked to contact the Evansdale Police Department at (319) 232-6682, Cedar Valley Crime Stoppers at (855) 300-8477 or the FBI at (402) 493-8688. |

How long does it take to charge your RAZR maxx? Just wondering other peoples experience ..seems to rake forever for me

How long does it take to charge your RAZR maxx? Just wondering other peoples experience ..seems to rake forever for me
Sent from my DROID RAZR using DroidForums
Mine seems to take 2 to 3 hours. I usually charge mine at night when I go to sleep, so I don't know exactly. Definitely take a long time to charge that big battery!
And always make sure you are using the cable that came with your phone, and not some third party.
Just curious why?

is it safe to use a usb extension cable with the charger?
The battery is roughly twice the size of most smartphone batteries, so you should count on it taking almost twice as long to charge (although in my experience I'd say it takes around 1.5 times longer). It takes more time to fill up the gas tank on a Hummer than it does on a Prius simply because the Hummer has a much larger tank. It's the same with the RAZR MAXX. It has a much larger tank to fill than other phones.
Some people say this is necessary, most don't. Typically, and in my experience, unless there's a particular feature or difference in voltage for the phone, cable, or port (like the mutated microUSB ports HTC uses), any microUSB cable will work just fine (especially other cables that came include with portable electronic devices). When I travel, I don't like to carry cords for every single thing since I'm not likely to need to charge everything at the same time. I just carry one or two and use them interchangeably. I've been doing this for years and all is well. I've also used a USB extension cable on many occasions (although not often) without incident.

Please some factual information!
Any good cable should be as good as that suppied by Moto. I would agree that some of the $1.99 cables sold at the local service station are not up to spec and will probably get a wire broken the first time you bend it, but a cable, manufactured by a reliable company, is just as good as the Moto cable. I don't believe I even know where my Moto cable is for my Droid X, and have never had a battery problem. And I use my Nook charger quite a few times when traveling.
Other thing to consider is the charging source. Not all laptops supply the required amperage to a device, thus they might take longer to fully charge a device vs. a plug in AC type charger.

In 2009, the South End restaurant Banq became Ginger Park. The reinvention was promising. Management brought in chef Patricia Yeo to turn the food around. Arriving from New York, where she garnered acclaim for her restaurant AZ, Yeo put together a roster of Asian-inspired small plates that shone.
(Full review)2 reviews
Don't believe the hype! Apparently this restaurant was good when another chief and management was in control. Some of our food was served at our table stone cold (mashed potatoes...come on!) and some even under cooked. Never had sushi quality tuna where some of the medallions were over cooked and some rare on the same plate.
Over priced and not worth the wait for a reservation. If you enjoy an over crowded lounge to be "seen" in Cambridge and don't mind paying $12.00 for a glass of wine that retails for $18.00 a bottle. You might just enjoy the "hype".
2 reviews
While waiting for friends in the bar we had the tastiest sweet potato ravioli I have ever had but....then we stayed for dinner.
My companions thought their fish dishes were just OK. I had the seafood stew. I love seafood and cook all kinds of seafood stews. I've been to Morocco (the chef's home country) multiple times so I ordered the stew hoping for a Moroccan twist. It was aggressively disgusting! The broth had a muddy cistern water flavor and the seafood was rubbery. It was too disgusting to eat and I had it taken away. No apology or gesture was offered but at least we didn't have to pay for it.

Traveling the Wine Roads
You'd be hard-pressed to find a more stimulating and varied wine region than northeastern Italy. From the Valpolicella, Bardolino, and Soave produced near Verona to the superlative whites of the Collio region, wines from the Veneto and Friuli-Venezia Giulia earn more Denominazione di Origine Controllata seals for uniqueness and quality than those of any other area of Italy.
You can travel on foot, by car, or by bicycle over hillsides covered with vineyards, each field nurturing subtly different grape varieties. On a casual trip through the countryside you're likely to come across wineries that will welcome you for a visit; for a more organized tour, check local tourist information offices, which have maps of roads, wineries, and vendors. Be advised that Italy has become more stringent about its driving regulations; designated drivers can save fines, embarrassment, or worse.
One of the most hospitable areas in the Veneto for wine enthusiasts is the stretch of country north of Treviso, where you can follow designated wine roads—tours that blend a beautiful rural setting with the delights of the grape. Authorized wineshops where you can stop and sample are marked with a sign showing a triangular arrangement of red and yellow grapes. There are three routes to choose from, and they're manageable enough that you can do them all comfortably over the course of a day or two.
Montello and Asolo Hills
This route provides a good balance of vineyards and nonwine sights. It winds from Nervesa della Battaglia, 18 km (10 miles) north of Treviso, past two prime destinations in the area, the lovely village of Asolo and the Villa Barbaro at Maser. Asolo produces good prosecco, whereas Montello, a hill near Nervesa, favors merlot and cabernet. Both areas also yield pinot and chardonnay.
Piave River
The circular route follows the Piave River and runs through orchards, woods, and hills. Among the area's gems are the desert wines Torchiato di Fregona and Refrontolo Passito, both made according to traditional methods.
Raboso del Piave, renowned since Roman times, ages well and complements local dishes such as beans and pasta or goose stuffed with chestnuts. Other reds are cabernet, merlot, and cabernet sauvignon. As an accompaniment to fish, try a Verduzzo del Piave or, for an aperitif, the warm-yellow Pinot Grigio del Piave.
This route runs for 47 km (29 miles) between Valdobbiadene and Conegliano, home of Italy's first wine institute, winding between knobby hills covered in grapevines. These hang in festoons on row after row of pergolas to create a thick mantle of green.
Turn off the main route to explore the narrower country lanes, most of which eventually join up. They meander through tiny hamlets and past numerous family wineries where you can taste and purchase the wines. Spring is an excellent time to visit, with no fewer than 15 local wine festivals held between March and early June.

On-site health fair
Delta County Memorial Hospital hosted a health fair for Bowie coal miners at the mine headquarters near Paonia Nov. 7 and 8. Some 270 coal mine employees and spouses checked in at the health fair for flu or tetanus shots, blood draws for health screens, blood pressure checks, body mass index (BMI) analyses, and/or lung function tests. The Center for Mental Health offered mental health checks and Delta County tobacco cessation information was available. A team of hospital employees from the hospital laboratory, infection control, cardio-pulmonary and respiratory therapy, education/marketing departments and a hospital volunteer worked the health fair for the coal miners.

No, I did not at all just show up re:Broxton.
In 2008 I stated he looked scared on the mound and I had no confidence in him.
In the 2008 NL Champ series the Phillies took him apart. And he looked terrified with every pitch.
In 2009 (yes, last season) I initially stated I felt the same about Broxton as I did in '08. At the behest of other posters here, I decided to give him a break and get on the JB-wagon.
He was made a fool of in several save opps. Again.
In the 2009 NL Champ series the Phillies easily took him apart. Again. And he looked terrified with every pitch. Again.
Here we are in the '10 season and he has not been good in any way, shape, or form in any situation.
He has already blown 2 of 3 save opps and has been tagged in non-save situations / mop-up opportunities.
I want a closer with a "Here, try to hit this pitch" attitude, not one with a "I hope he does not swing the bat" 'tude that I think Broxton has.
Yeah, I do miss the 'roided-out Eric Gagne of '04 and the coked-out Steve Howe (RIP) of the 70-80's. Substance issues aside, they had the ATTITUDE and pitches needed in a closer.
I wrote it before and I'll write it one more time:
Jonathan Broxton is the Charlie Brown of pitchers. He has a high straight ball, and a low straight ball.
Sure.. he throws hard, but decent MLB hitters do not care if the fastball is coming in at 95 or 105. They know a fastball is coming from JB and they sit on it. They know Broxton's only pitch that will be a strike is his fastball.
Trevor Hoffman was so effective because he had an excellent off-speed pitch to compliment a great fastball. And he threw the off-speed for strikes.
Dennis Ekersley had an excellent slider/curveball to compliment a great fastball. And he threw the benders for strikes.
What consistent additional pitch does Broxton throw for strikes?
Curve? Nope...
Slider? Nope...
Offspeed? Nope...
Ahhh... arguing sports over the intraweb... fun, fun, fun...
What's more believable: your "feelings" about how Broxton "looks," or the actual numbers?
It's hilarious how this is the first time you've come out against Broxton this season. It's May 7th. He gave up his first runs of the season. A month in. FIRST RUNS.
I'll take the overwhelming dominance of his numbers over how you "feel" about him any day of the week.
They didn't get swept!!

The Los Angeles Kings - 2012 Stanley Cup Champions
I'm not at all familiar with the relationship between owner and GM in the MLB, but can it safely be assumed that they've basically put a spending freeze on Colletti? What exactly is the relationship between the divorce and the reason the Dodgers haven't made any attempts at making any changes to improve the roster?
I didn't say you just showed up. I said you Broxton haters only pop up out of the woodwork when he ****s up, which really isn't all that often if you guys could get beyond your hysterical hatred of him.
As I posted last time you made this absurd point: "Not many, actually. He was 36 for 42 in save opportunities last year with a 2.61 ERA and WHIP under 1. If he gives us that again this year, I'll take it without question."
If your bar for success is going to be that a closer is garbage if he blows "several save opps.", you're never going to be satisfied.
Yes, and the Phillies had the best offense in the NL in 2009 (and were #2 in 2008). As I've noted several times, EVERY closer (Lidge, Fuentes, Nathan, Papelbon, Franklin, and Street) in the playoffs not named Mariano Rivera melted down in a huge playoff game last year. Obviously nobody is satisfied with his NLCS performances so far, but he's in pretty good company in that regard.
Talk about selective statistics. His ERA was 0.00. I'll repeat that--he had not given up an earned run all season this year before last night. It's his fault that the Dodgers have been so bad that he hasn't had many opportunities, or that he blew another opportunity because of inherited runners? Come on.
Herein lies the crux of the complaint. Broxton is not the '04 Gagne, nor is he Saito. Dodger fans have been spoiled because they've had arguably the best closer in the game for many, many years. Broxton is not the best closer in the game, obviously. But he's easily in the top 10 and arguably in the top 5 in MLB.

This is where a true bad-ass closer says "Nope, you are not going to hit me." and has the pitches and attitude to back it up.
Broxton does not have that mentality or the additional pitch. You clearly avoided that minor little detail in your rebuttal.
Broxton is Charlie-freaking-Brown with his high straight-ball or a low straight-ball pitches. He has ZERO.ZERO else for pitches that hit for strikes.
Tonight the Dogs got lucky in the fact that J. finally managed to throw out an attempted base-stealer in the 9th. (For as down as I am also on J., that was a great throw!)
If the base stealer (sorry, I cannot recall who it was) had been sucessful and Broxton had to pitch from the stretch to the following hitters?
PURELY HYPOTHETICAL, based on JB's past "performances":
Hmmm... let me guess based on his past...
A runner on 2nd with one out, JB pitching from the stretch...
There is a wild pitch in the dirt coming up from Broxton trying to throw something resembling a curve...
Runner on 3rd...
Broxton gives up a worm-killer or fly ball, the score is tied...
Maybe Ethier saves LA yet again in the 9th / extra innings.
Yeah... no... Love JB all you like but The Dogs will never win a damn thing with him as their "closer".
Broxton has had 3+ seasons to prove himself. He has shown TWICE (see: Philly in the NLCS x2) that he is not up to the task when it really comes down to push-comes-to-shove.
Yeah, he got the save tonight. Barely.
I do, with all veracity, hope Broxton proves me totally wrong...

The release of prisoners comes after many controversial arrests were made by Vietnam's communist government. In April, well-known lawyer and activist Cu Huy Ha Vu was among several dissidents in Vietnam convicted [JURIST report] for anti-government activity. In January 2010, four defendants were convicted [JURIST report] of activities aimed at ending communist rule in Vietnam. In March, 2010 Vietnamese authorities released [JURIST report] a Catholic priest and leading rights activist from Hanoi prison. Also in March, Vietnamese human rights lawyer and activist Le Thi Cong Nhan was released [JURIST report] from prison after serving a three-year sentence for allegedly spreading propaganda against the state.
The Ocampo Six include several high-ranking members of Kenya's government, the head of operations at Kass FM [official website] in Nairobi and the son of Kenya's first president, Jomo Kenyatta [Africa Within backgrounder]. Three of the men are members of the Orange Democratic Movement (ODM) [party website], and the other three are members of the opposing Party for National Unity (PNU). The ODM suspects are charged with fomenting violence against PNU members following the 2007 elections because they believed the election of Kenyan President Mwai Kibaki [official profile] to be rigged. In response, the PNU suspects are charged with the conspiring with the Mungiki criminal organization [Safer Access backgrounder, PDF] to attack members of the ODM party. The ICC summoned the suspects [JURIST report] after determining they would not be charged in Kenya for the alleged crimes. In April, Kenya requested that the ICC dismiss the case [JURIST report], arguing that the government is capable of prosecuting the six men domestically. Lawyers for the Ocampo Six called for the timely release of evidence [JURIST report] against their clients that month as well.
Earlier this month, judges for the ECCC announced [JURIST archive] that they had "serious doubts" that the suspects being investigated by the court are those "most responsible" for the for alleged war crimes. The tribunal is responsible for investigating war crimes and crimes against humanity committed by Cambodia's communist Khmer Rouge regime of the 1970s. In June, the ECCC began the initial hearings in the trial of four former Khmer Rouge leaders [JURIST report] constituting Case 002 [materials]. The four leaders include Nuon Chea, who was Pol Pot's second-in-command and the group's chief ideologist, former head of state Khieu Samphan, ex-foreign minister Ieng Sary, and his wife, Ieng Thirith [case profiles, PDF], who served as minister for social affairs. All four pleaded not guilty to charges including crimes against humanity, war crimes, genocide, religious persecution, homicide and torture.
The UN Working Group on Enforced or Involuntary Disappearances has called on other nations to end the practice of enforced disappearances. In June, they demanded [JURIST report] China address its practice of "enforced disappearances" [press release] and reveal the location of 355 detained Tibetan monks. That same month, Human Rights Watch (HRW) [official website] expressed concern [JURIST report] over the arrest and arbitrary detention of dozens of civilians by Libyan opposition authorities. A three-person commission for the UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) [official website] appointed to investigate violence in Libya published a report [PDF] saying that government forces have committed crimes against humanity and war crimes [JURIST report] under orders from Libyan leader Mummar Gaddafi [BBC profile; JURIST news archive], including imprisonment, and other severe deprivations of physical liberties.
The UN Security Council last month called for an end to fighting [JURIST report] in South Kordofan. South Kordofan, which has been held by the Sudan People's Liberation Army (SPLA) since the 2005 peace deal that stifled Sudan's civil war, is a state in the center of Sudan, and has been a disputed territory between Sudan and South Sudan due to its oil reserves. Sudan's army, the Sudanese Armed Forces (SAF), took over Abyei, a district in the state, in May, causing a rebuke and demand for withdrawal [JURIST report] by the UN. The UN confirmed reports of bombing and shelling in and around Abyei by the SAF, as well as widespread looting and burning of houses. Aid workers estimate 40,000 people have fled the area [BBC report]. While the UN has said that attacks on its peacekeepers amount to war crimes under international law, both the UN and the US have called on the northern troops to withdraw from Abyei. From the northern capital of Khartoum President Omar al-Bashir [BBC profile; JURIST news archive] has stated he will not withdraw troops from the region and insisted that the area belongs to the north. An International Criminal Court (ICC) [official website] case is open against al-Bashir and several nations have been urged to arrest him on sight including: China, Malaysia, Djibouti, Kenya and Chad [JURIST reports].
It is critical that civilian authorities led by the TNC [Transitional National Council] assert full control over Libya and establish the rule of law to prevent further bloodshed, vigilante justice, looting, and violence. The international community must assist the newly emerging civilian authorities in providing basic services to the Libyan people as Libya develops a constitutional framework and mechanisms and builds civil society and institutions. ... This effort must also examine reports of human rights violations committed by rebel forces and NATO. In the current absence of developed legal institutions, it is crucial that Libyan transitional authorities fully collaborate with the International Criminal Court (ICC), which has already issued arrest warrants for [Gaddafi] and others. ... Prosecutions, vetting, and other necessary methods of accountability will guide the Libyan people as they choose how best to forge a secure and just social and political order in the aftermath of conflict.
Gaddafi continues to disregard arrest warrants [JURIST report] issued in May by Chief Prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo [official website] of the International Criminal Court [official website]. The UN Human Rights Council (UNHRC) [official webisite] released a report in June that revealed estimates showing 10,000-15,000 people have been killed since protests began in February [JURIST reports]. In April, Ocampo's office uncovered evidence [JURIST report] that Gaddafi planned to attack civilians to forestall regime-toppling revolution. Ocampo indicated that the plans were made in response to the conflicts in Tunisia and Egypt and included shooting civilians. In March, Ocampo told the press that he was 100 percent certain his office would bring charges [JURIST report] against Gaddafi. Also in March, the ICC launched a probe into allegations of crimes against humanity [JURIST report] by the Libyan government.
In June, the ACLU, the National Immigration Law Center (NILC) [advocacy website] and a coalition of other civil rights groups filed a class action lawsuit challenging a similar Georgia immigration law, which has also been blocked by a judge [JURIST reports]. In May, the US Supreme Court upheld an Arizona employment law [JURIST report] that imposes penalties on employers who hire illegal immigrants, ruling that the law is not preempted by the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) [text]. The ruling opens the door for states to enact similar restraints on immigration. Several other states have also enacted or proposed [JURIST reports] tough new immigration laws.
Musharraf was arrested in February [JURIST report] because he had not cooperated during the investigation of Bhutto's death, and investigators alleged that Musharraf did not provide adequate security [DAWN report] for Bhutto when she was assassinated during a campaign rally in Pakistan in 2007. According to an interim criminal charge sheet [JURIST report] by the FIA, Musharraf appointed and allegedly gave orders to the police officers accused of failing to protect Bhutto on the day she was assassinated. Specifically, the prosecution document alleges that Musharraf ordered the officers to remove a security detail for Bhutto prior to her departure and that he later ordered the same officers to hose down the scene of the assassination.

The city of Sarasota is seeking artists to complete an art walk in the newly designated Downtown Sarasota Historic District.
The selected artists will create 97 16-inch-by-16-inch sidewalk inlays to replace the gray brick diamonds that are currently on Main Street's sidewalks from Orange Avenue to Gulfstream Avenue.
Artists can use a variety of materials, including granite, stainless steel and stoneware ceramic.
Applications can be found at www.sarasotagov.com/publicart — submission deadline is July 28. The artists must reside in Sarasota or Manatee counties, and those artists selected will be paid $250.
The art walk is the brainchild of Ernie Ritz, vice president of the Downtown Improvement District.
"We'll enhance the shopping experience by putting pieces of art by local artists (on display)," Ritz said.

Fine Ruby, Diamond and Platinum Ring
John Saul Ruby Mine, Tanzania
The first gemstone deposits found in East Africa were in Longido, Tanzania. Their production was generally small or of poor quality gems. However, a fantastic mid-1970s discovery of chromium-rich rock yielded not only some wonderful green tourmalines but some wonderful rubies, also colored by chromium, which required no enhancement.
The color of these stones was splendid and their quality put East Africa on the map of gem-producing countriesright up there with Burma and Sri Lanka. Indeed some of the rubies from the mine were of such a fine distinctive shade of ruby-red which would later become a standard of quality. To cutters around the world the expression "johnsaul" simply grew to mean "very fine red" when it came to describing rubies. It is said that Van Cleef and Arpels bought a very large portion of the production of this mine at the time.
The present ring, consisting of a circular sugar-loaf
cabochon ruby is an excellent example of classic, natural material from this famed mine. Purchased by its present owner during the 1970s it has been kept safely hidden since that time. The stone is fairly large for the speciesweighing approximately 6.16 carats. The color is virtually incandescent with a deep inner glow. Mounted in a delicate hand-made platinum mount set with approximately 0.85 carats of small brilliant-cut diamonds decorating the bezel, gallery and shank, this is a ring which should appeal to any jewelry lover or connoisseur of fine rubies,
size 6 ½ .
Accompanied by a Gemological Certificate of America report number 2115152130 dated September 22, 2009 stating natural ruby, no indications of heating.

"Not Bad at All"
These are simply the best cheap smokes I've found to date. And they are fairly strong little fellas.
Billy T. in Oklahoma February 12, 2014
"Clint Eastwood would love these"
Look like a bad ass from the spaghetti westerns! This baby ain't pretty but some horsepower in the flavor department. Expect the classic LGC maduro taste.
No disappointments here
david c in Gulfport, MS August 26, 2013
"incredible 'little dogs'"
ABsolutely the ugliest cigar I have ever smoked. I plan on having at least a box of 50 in my humidor forever. The appearance will scare you - - -TRY one. THESE are super. Absolutely incredible.
Steve in Yankton, SD USA November 29, 2012
"Good taste A little inconsistent Needs some aging"
Smoking one of these little ugly cigars you will not look like a banker of the 1%, but a compañero of Ché G. For that reason alone, I think they're good. The taste is strong and a little harsh. What do you expect when you're in the jungle fighting a for a revolution? Unfortunately, some of these cigars actually tasted toxic and I tossed them. After a couple of months though, I started to get good ones consistently. Will be re-ordering and storing for a couple of months.
Imported in San Francisco June 24, 2012
This is my GO-TO little cigars.A permanent resident in my Humi!!!Ugly little suckers,but big on taste.A definate MUST TRY
THE HUMBLE ONE in CHICAGO November 29, 2011

Very smooth medium bodied
thin, handmade. Not harsh

If the accusation is that the banning of the niqab goes against religious freedom, the foremost question must be whether the niqab itself has any kind of theological basis. Until now there has been no compelling evidence to suggest that it has, and this is what appears to have got lost in the debate.
It's unfair to tar all r/atheism subscribers with the same brush. Perhaps now, with less visibility, the section will start the long road of rehabilitation toward becoming a welcoming, discussion of atheism for atheists. In truth, many of the noisiest members - much like in religion - are the ones that get the most attention, and the ones that least represent the majority of the community.
Cultural diversity has played a key role in forming the multicultural Britain of today, far more so than adherence to one set of 'national values' has. The role of the state is to enforce this tolerance through laws and expose children to the true diversity of the world they are entering in the education system.
It's important to recognise the diverse backgrounds that constitute our national cultures in contemporary society. As Mark Hammond of the Equality and Human Rights Commission writes, "It is indisputable that Britain has benefited for centuries from its own Muslim heritage. There is much more to be gained from the sharing of culture and art, humour and humility."

In these two brilliant burlesques, he created two of the most famous and fantastic novels of all time that not only stirred our imagination but revolutionized literature.

Synopsis: A beautiful hardcover edition of a timeless classic, with illustrations by Lauren Child. Young, orphaned Mary Lennox is sent to live with her reclusive uncle, Archibald Craven. All but ignored by Craven, and kept away from her sickly cousin Colin, Mary happens upon a secret, walled garden. As she starts to work in it, the garden begins to flourish, and so do Mary and her new family. With an unjacketed fabric cover, six full color plates, and colored endpapers, everything about this hardcover edition is high-end and luxurious. Synopsis: The Mad Hatter, the Ugly Duchess, the Mock Turtle, the Queen of Hearts, the Cheshire Catandmdash;characters each more eccentric than the last that could only have come from Lewis Carroll, the master of sublime nonsense. In these two brilliant burlesques, he created two of the most famous and fantastic novels of all time that not only stirred our imagination but revolutionized literature. Description:With splendid packaging created by acclaimed designer Coralie Bickford-Smith (Great Books for Boys series), Penguin Classics presents beautiful hardcover editions of the world's favorite books. Featuring gorgeous patterns stamped on linen cases, colored endpapers, and ribbon markers, these are rich and sumptuous volumes that continue what will be one of the most coveted sets of books ever produced.
About the AuthorCharles Lutwidge Dodgson, known by his pen name, Lewis Carroll, was a man of diverse interests — in mathematics, logic, photography, art, theater, religion, medicine, and science. He was happiest in the company of children for whom he created puzzles, clever games, and charming letters.
As all Carroll admirers know, his book Alice's Adventures in Wonderland (1865), became an immediate success and has since been translated into more than eighty languages. The equally popular sequel Through the Looking-Glass and What Alice Found There, was published in 1872. The Alice books are but one example of his wide ranging authorship. The Hunting of the Snark, a classic nonsense epic (1876) and Euclid and His Modern Rivals, a rare example of humorous work concerning mathematics, still entice and intrigue today's students. Sylvie and Bruno, published toward the end of his life contains startling ideas including an 1889 description of weightlessness. The humor, sparkling wit and genius of this Victorian Englishman have lasted for more than a century. His books are among the most quoted works in the English language, and his influence (with that of his illustrator, Sir John Tenniel) can be seen everywhere, from the world of advertising to that of atomic physics.

(RNN) – The White House released Vice President Joe Biden's new official portrait on Monday.
Taken by the VP's photographer David Lienemann, Biden stood smiling with his arms crossed. The American and Vice President flags were the back.
First Lady Michelle Obama also showed off a new look in her new official White House portrait that was unveiled last week.
Her bangs were the most obvious change in the portrait, which she describes in an interview with Rachel Ray as her "midlife crisis."
Taken on Feb. 12, 2013, Mrs. Obama showed more of a conservative look. According to Today News, she wore a black Reed Krakoff dress with sleeves to the elbow and a strand of pearls. In her 2009 official portrait she wore a black-sleeveless dress by Michael Kors.
President Obama also had a noticeably different official portrait that was unveiled in January. In his previous portrait, the Commander and Chief wore a serious expression. In the new portrait, he sported more gray hair and a huge smile.

Watch video tips and tricks
8 cups apple cider
1 tablespoon brown sugar
1/2 teaspoon ground cloves
1/2 teaspoon whole cloves
1/2 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1 (3 pound) bottom round roast
6 carrots, cut in half
6 potatoes, peeled and quartered
1/4 cup quick-mixing flour (such as Wondra®)
1 tablespoon dry brown gravy mix
salt and ground black pepper to taste
I saw this recipie and thought wow this looks delicious and simple. I guess it is too simple cuz it tastes like meat boiled in water. The gravy came out good tho...def not good recipe!!!!
The marinade needs salt and something else, though not sure what exactly the something else is. Maybe red pepper? There also should be onion in with the potatoes and carrots. I think those few changes would take it from so so to tasty.

The owner, Tosca Reno Kennedy, 53, purchased this 24-acre property in the town of Caledon in Ontario, Canada in 2000 with her husband Robert Kennedy, according to records provided by the seller. The couple renovated and added space to an existing structure, creating a 15,000-square-foot home. Philip Castleton

Mrs. Kennedy is the best-selling author of the 'Eat-Clean Diet' series of health books. Her late husband, Robert, was the publisher of several fitness magazines, including MuscleMag International. He died in February from lung cancer complications. Philip Castleton

Perched on a hill, the home has clear views of the forested landscape and plenty of privacy, Mrs. Kennedy said. 'You can see Toronto on a clear night,' she said. The couple built a turret to take in the views. Shown right is the 16-foot deep pool, which, combined with landscaping, cost about C$3.5 million, said Paul Maranger, one of the listing agents.

The dining room, shown here, features a 20-foot ceiling with a skylight, Mrs. Kennedy said. A previous owner of the property, Chris Haney, was one of the inventors of the popular board game 'Trivial Pursuit.' Philip Castleton

Throughout the home are custom lighting features that the couple had installed, including the domino-like light panels shown here in the kitchen. Much of the flooring in the home is reclaimed Douglas fir planking, which the couple bought and restored from an old airplane hangar. Some of the boards are as wide as 16 inches, she said.

The home has six bedrooms and 10 bathrooms. The master bedroom, seen here, has a fiber-optic lighting feature above the bed with pinprick holes in the wooden veneer that pulse to create the illusion of a 'starry night,' Mrs. Kennedy said. Philip Castleton

'We wanted the home to have a lot of features that felt peaceful and relaxing,' Mrs. Kennedy said about the interior. The couple had a mantra for their personal design style: 'We don't want to scrape the eyeballs,' she joked, saying simple 'Zen-like' spaces were their goal. Philip Castleton

With Mr. Kennedy's passing, Mrs. Kennedy said she's selling because the home is too big for her. 'I'm in a massive home by myself and it just doesn't feel right,' she said. Philip Castleton

The property has a barn with five horse stalls, but Mrs. Kennedy said she never got to buying horses because of her full-time schedule. 'But the barn's in good shape,' she said. Philip Castleton
