Baked Eggs with Spinach & Mushrooms
In general, I am not a savory breakfast person. It's not that I eschew bacon and eggs when the opportunity arises (which it does, about every other Saturday morning, when my husband takes charge of breakfast). It's a simple matter of preference and habit. Yogurt makes me happy. So do fruit, muffins, toast with peanut butter and jelly, muffins, scones, and whole grain porridge of every variety (so long as it has a sprinkle of brown sugar or drizzle of honey).
But a woman needs her protein and vegetables, and sometimes a warm, savory breakfast beckons. Enter the indispensable egg. On those mornings when I'm so ravenous that I feel like I could eat my through all of the above-mentioned items and still feel hungry, I know that it's eggs that I need, so it's eggs that make.
A homey scramble has it's comforts, and fits the bill on most such mornings, but recently I've been on a baked egg kick. Part of it is due to my finally (4 -1/2 years to be precise) figured out the basic functions of the convection oven function of the built-in microwave that came with the house. I'm not going to trust a cake in it--yet--but so far the eggs are a cinch, and it's nice not having to turn on the big oven for my wee eggs.
The second reason for my newfound preference is that I cannot gobble a baked egg. It has a primness, a gentle sophistication, that forces me to set a spot at the table, use a linen napkin, and have a sip of hot tea before I dip my spoon into the golden yolk.
More baked egg recipes to come. Apparently February + me + morning = ravenous.
Baked Eggs with Mushrooms & Spinach
Makes 4 servings
Since there is one of me, but four of these eggs, I make all of the spinach mushroom mixture at once, then let half of it cool and chill until the next (makes an extra-quick option on day two). Also--who am I kidding--I usually eat two of the baked eggs, so this really makes 4 baked egg cups but 2 servings.
2 tbsp olive oil, divided
5 ounces baby spinach leaves, roughly chopped
1/4 cup finely chopped onion
1 clove garlic, minced
1 cup thinly sliced crimini or button mushrooms
1/3 cup whole milk
1/4 teaspoon sea salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1/8 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg
4 large eggs
1-2 tbsp finely grated Parmesan
1. Position oven rack in upper third of oven. Preheat oven to 450°F.
2. Heat 1 tbsp olive oil in a large oven-proof skillet over medium heat until it shimmers. Add spinach and cook, covered, stirring occasionally, until wilted, about 3 minutes. Transfer to a plate.
3. Wipe skillet dry, then cook onion and garlic in remaining tbsp olive oil over medium heat, about 2 to 3 minutes until softened. Add mushrooms and increase heat to medium-high. Cook and stir 3 to 4 minutes until mushrooms are softened.
4. Stir in the milk, sea salt, pepper, nutmeg, and spinach. Bring to a simmer.
5. Spoon mixture into 4 buttered ramekins. Break an egg into each ramekin
6. Bake, uncovered, 8 to 10 minutes until egg whites are set but yolks are still slightly runny.
8. Season eggs with salt and pepper, then sprinkle with Parmesan.

This looks delicious. I love my eggs in the morning too, it's all I can eat without wanting to eat the entire kitchen for the rest of the morning. I've never tried them baked, it looks quite interesting. You have such fantastic ideas and pictures!

Found this when I Googled "eggs, mushrooms, spinach". Delicious quick dinner. I used frozen spinach, defrosted in the microwave, water squeezed out in a dishcloth. I added Gruyere cheese to the pan with the milk and spinach and topped with pecorino. Will print off for future use.

Ah, the offseason. When rumors become perceived as fleeting fact.
Evidently, anyone with a laptop and a camera can fan the flames of rumor. Case in point — the 2006 offseason, when a kid in a dorm room turns on his camera and says that John Abraham is headed to Denver in exchange for the No. 29 pick in the first round, then writes a story repeating the "news."
Of course, Abraham never became a Bronco. The guy in his dorm, who posted under the site name "JetsTV.com," presumably faded into Web flotsam. One can only wonder about his "sources" who clamed the deal was imminent.
Yet the non-story still had to be chased, even though it was on video that caused me to think of the description that Noah Vanderhoff, fictional video-arcade tycoon portrayed by Brian Doyle-Murray, offered upon completing a "Wayne's World" screening:
"I think it's two chimps on a Davenport in a basement."
The Abraham gossip just one of many rumors to come across in recent years. The discussions of some gobble bandwith by the terabyte. In other cases, it's just a sentence or two in a conversation, which was the case four years ago, when a media member came up to me and breathlessly proclaimed, "You guys are going to sign Charlie Garner," deeming this to be virtually incontrovertible.
Still waiting for that one to happen.
Some of you post comments asking me for my take on these deals and I typically remain silent. Not that I'm ignoring you, but as a team employee, I try to stay out of the rumor business.
Not that I mind if you talk about rumors. Feel free. Discuss them below or on the message boards. But hopefully you'll understand why I'll stay out of the debate, for the most part.
And with that, I'll turn it over to the Timex Social Club:

Volvo Penta introduces its new Interceptor System (IS), which provides automatic optimized three-axis trimming to meet dynamic acceleration and cruising phases.
At a weeklong summer event, the Volvo Group showed off its range of products designed for working in the mining and quarrying segment. Volvo Penta was in the thick of it, demonstrating how its engines complement a range of equipment, from crushers to generators.
New Engines Deliver Improved Top-End Performance, Industry Leading Horsepower-Weight Ratio and Up to 20% Increased Fuel Efficiency
At Volvo Penta, environmental care is an important consideration when dreaming up new features — and it's integral to the company's new start/stop function, which reduces fuel consumption, noise and emissions.
Volvo Penta is now launching IPS900 with Rating 3 for commercial boats. This means that a larger number of boats for commercial use can take advantage of the well-known IPS benefits: improved fuel economy, better manoeuvrability and lower overall operating costs.
Volvo Penta D13 has now further been developed to meet EPA Tier 3 – the new marine environmental emission standard. The new version of D13 offers improved environmental properties with basically unchanged low fuel consumption.
This summer Volvo Penta takes one of its test boats down to the English Channel to show dealers, customers, press and other interested the benefits of the Volvo Penta IPS high performance pod system. One of the stopovers is at Southampton SEAWORK exhibition in the UK. This trip is inspired by the successful Volvo Penta IPS Baltic Trip that was performed during summer 2011.
Volvo Penta today announced two key appointments to strengthen its industrial sales team. The company has appointed Dee Wise as Industrial Regional Sales Manager, North America and Bill Pacey as Distribution Development Account Manager.
Volvo Penta today announced two key appointments to solidify its marine leisure sales team. The company has appointed Tony Kelleher as director, marine leisure sales, Region Americas and Rick Richert as regional sales manager.
In 2014 Volvo Penta will release its full line of Tier 4 Final-compliant industrial engines. But what exactly is Tier 4 Final, and what does it mean for customers?

The American Optometric Association is the acknowledged leader and recognized authority for eye and vision care in the world.
The recent interest in "circle-tinted" contact lenses being sold on the Internet to obtain an anime-style look popularized by Lady Gaga in her "Bad Romance" music video is of concern to optometrists. A recent article in the New York Times entitled "What Big Eyes You Have, Dear, But Are Those Contact Lenses Risky?" (July 3, 2010) highlighted the issues surrounding these lenses. Contact lenses are considered safe for the correction of vision when appropriately fitted by licensed eye care providers. However, when contact lenses are obtained without a prescription and without appropriate training, fitting and follow-up, their use can result in complications including eye infections and permanent loss of vision.
In 2005, the United States Food and Drug Administration (FDA) classified all contact lenses, whether they correct vision or are used simply for cosmetics, as medical devices. In the United States, contact lenses cannot be obtained legally without a prescription. Several reports have been published linking severe eye infections to the use of cosmetic contact lenses obtained without a prescription. In fact, several of our doctors have encountered patients with complications as a result of inappropriate use of such lenses.
The circle lenses referred to in the New York Times article as well as in other media outlets are currently not approved by the FDA and are being obtained without a prescription in significant numbers, primarily by teenagers and young women. Our concern is that the fitting, and professional follow-up care to determine the eye health response to lens wear, are not provided when these lenses are obtained without a prescription. The purchasers may also not be provided with appropriate lens care instructions. It has been scientifically established that individuals who obtain lenses via the Internet or mail order have an increased risk of infection of more than four times.
Swapping or sharing of contact lenses is also of great concern. These seemingly innocuous cosmetic devices, if not individually prescribed for maximum fit and properly disinfected, can lead to serious vision loss. Therefore, in agreement with FDA federal guidelines, contact lenses are medical devices and must be fitted and cared for properly. Consumers desiring cosmetic contact lenses to enhance their appearance should do so in consultation with their eye care provider.

A party seeking a hearing date on the law and motion calendar or the discovery calendar must contact the calendar clerk to obtain approved alternate dates for the hearing. If possible, the party should obtain agreement to one of the alternate dates from all opposing parties. When a date is chosen, the party must inform the calendar clerk.
(Eff. 1/01/03)
A scheduled motion may be continued only upon application to the judge who is to hear the motion, upon a showing of good cause. A scheduled motion may be taken off calendar by the moving party no later than on the third court day before the hearing, and thereafter only with the permission of the judge who is to hear the motion. Any request for relief by the party responding to the motion will remain set for hearing unless continued or withdrawn by that party.
(Eff. 1/01/12)
The Court follows CRC 3.1308(a)(1) for those departments that have elected to issue tentative rulings in civil law and motion and discovery matters. Counsel and litigants are responsible for determining whether the department hearing their motion has made this election. Those departments issuing tentative rulings will do so generally by 2:00 p.m., and no later than 3:00 p.m., on the court day preceding the scheduled hearing. If the Court has not directed oral argument, a party contesting a tentative ruling must give notice of its intention to appear to the other side and the Court no later than 4:00 p.m. on the court day preceding the scheduled hearing. Appearances may be made by telephone (through CourtCall) or in person. The tentative ruling will automatically become the order of the Court on the scheduled hearing date if the Court has not directed oral argument and if the contesting party fails to timely notice an objection to the other side and the Court. Tentative rulings will be posted on the Court's website, www.scscourt.org, where further information may be found. If a party does not have access to the internet, the tentative ruling may be accessed by calling Court Services at (408) 882-2515. Questions about these procedures may be addressed to the specific department where the matter is to be heard.
(Eff. 1/01/10)
Ex-parte applications are heard every court day between 8:15 and 9:00 am. If the ex-parte application concerns a discovery matter, it must be brought to the Discovery Department. Otherwise, it must be brought to the department of the case management judge. The moving party or self-represented party applying for a civil harassment, elder abuse, private postsecondary school violence, transitional housing misconduct, or workplace violence restraining order must submit a Declaration in Support of Ex Parte Application for Civil Restraining Orders (attached local form CV-5014 ). In South County, ex parte applications are heard every court day at 1:00 p.m. All ex parte applications are heard only in compliance with CRC 3.1203(a), which requires notice to all parties no later than 10:00 a.m. the court day before the ex parte appearance, absent a showing of exceptional circumstances that justify a shorter time for notice.

Accelerator Update for May 20, 2009 - May 22, 2009 |
Wednesday May 20 The day shift began with Operations monitoring the Tevatron (TeV) store 7066 (118.0E30) and the Recycler (33.3E10), with the Antiproton Source stacking (24.8E10), with the Main Injector (MI), Linac, and Booster operating normally, with the Meson MTest, MiniBooNE, and NuMI experiments taking beam, and with the Collider Detector at Fermilab (CDF) and D-Zero (D0) experiments using the colliding beams. Operations terminated store 7066 at 2 PM. D0 personnel accessed their collision hall following store termination. Operations reported that the Main Injector quadrupole focusing bus had a ground fault. Investigation found the quadrupole magnet at the MI-428 location had developed a substantial LCW leak. An attempt was made to braze the copper joint, but the leak remained. The Run Coordinator decided to replace the magnet. Support personnel had located a replacement magnet by the end of the evening shift. Thursday May 21 The midnight shift began with Operations monitoring the stack (12.1E10). At the beginning of the midnight shift, Mechanical and EE Support personnel accessed the Main Injector and began the magnet replacement. The new magnet was in the tunnel by the end of shift. Main Injector quadrupole magnet installation continued through out the day shift. The TeV accesses concluded at 12:50 PM. Operations put the TeV through a dry squeeze at 3:05 PM. The MI magnet replacement was finished by 4:40 PM. MI was ramping by 5:25 PM. Operations established protons to Pbar and NuMI by 5:40 PM. Operations established beam to MTest at 7:10 PM. An air conditioning problem inhibited MiniBooNE beam. TeV P\personnel began a study period at 8:30 PM. Operations called in Booster RF personnel to investigate the failure of two RF stations. Friday May 22 The midnight shift began with Operations monitoring the stash (63.7E10), with Pbar stacking (26.4E10), and with NuMI taking beam. MiniBooNE was off due to a HVAC problem. TeV studies concluded at 3:05 AM. Operations put the TeV into HEP shot setup at 5:25 AM. Operations established store 7074 at 6:50 AM with an average initial luminosity of 198.53E30. Operations established beam to MTest after the store began to collide. The Plans for Friday and the Weekend The plans for today and the weekend are to stack, stash, and store. |

In 1990 – that dim and distant past when trolls were just mythical Scandinavian cavedwellers and only expert cooks and photographers thought they were expert cooks and photographers – US author Mike Godwin created Godwin's Law.
Godwin's Law states that "as an online discussion grows longer, the probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches one."
The law's an easy way to call out lazy hyperbole.

Even a one-point rise in returns can boost your savings dramatically.
This story explains how demanding a return on investment can take you to millionaire status.
When he ran General Electric, Jack Welch demanded that all the companies GE owned rank either first or second in their industries. Why? He wanted only fast-growing businesses that produced a high return on investment.
As an investor, you can use a similar strategy to speed up your path to seven figures.
Think like an owner
Invest in only the most profitable businesses. Under Welch, GE had a "return on equity" -- a measure of how efficiently a firm uses shareholder capital to churn out profits -- of more than 25%, roughly double the market average.
When it comes to your portfolio, target firms that have similarly long records of high profitability. Today this list includes companies such as PepsiCo (PEP, Fortune 500), Oracle (ORCL, Fortune 500), and the industrial gas supplier Praxair (PX, Fortune 500), all with ROEs of 25% or higher.
Related: 'How I made $1 million'
Why focus on ROE? In theory, over the long run, that higher profitability will eventually be reflected in a company's share price. And this is borne out in reality.
The MSCI USA Quality Index of high-ROE companies with stable earnings growth posted annualized returns of 11.6% over the past quarter-century -- 1.7 points better than the S&P 500. At that rate, a $100,000 investment would grow to $1 million in 21 years, or four years sooner than via the broad market.
Related: Best deals in investing
You can search for high-ROE stocks at YCharts.com by clicking on the "screener" tab. Mutual fund investors can employ a high ROE strategy through MONEY 70 member Jensen Quality Growth (JENSX). Co-manager Eric Schoenstein says his team won't even look at a stock unless the underlying company has reported at least 15% ROE each year for 10 straight years.
Think like a long-term investor
Search for quality, but don't overpay for it. That's what famed value-minded stock picker Don Yacktman does. He started investing professionally in 1968, just as inflation was on its way to double digits in the '70s. As a result, Yacktman focuses on real returns -- he aims to outpace inflation by around seven points.
To accomplish that, you'll need to find stocks trading at reasonable valuations, since history shows that expensive shares have a hard time posting sizable long-term gains. Plus, you'll want companies with growing cash flow, since that can often lead to above-average profit and dividend growth, Yacktman says.
An example is Coca-Cola (KO, Fortune 500), which has historically boosted its payouts about 10% a year (its ROE is a stellar 26%). Through picks like this, the Yacktman Fund (YACKX) has delivered annual gains, after inflation and fees, of nearly 7% since its 1992 launch.
Related: Track all your investments in one place
Think like a buyer
Get more bang for the same renovation buck. For homeowners, a big reason to renovate is to raise a home's value, according to a survey by home-improvement site Houzz.
Updating a kitchen or bath will help, says Austin realtor Matt Menard, but while the average upscale kitchen remodeling will run upwards of $50,000, you can redo two or even three baths for the same price. To maximize returns, add a few splurges in the master bath: a linen closet, plus a separate shower stall and tub, which 82% of buyers rated as essential or desirable, according to the National Association of Homebuilders.
The same strategy applies to outdoor fixes, which are among the lowest-cost, highest-return projects, according to Remodeling Magazine. A back-yard deck and front porch both cost about $10,000 to $15,000, but the porch can reel in a buyer.
Related: Nail your home renovation budget
"That's the photo that's going to be plastered on every search engine that redistributes the MLS," says Menard.
Don't act like a shortsighted CEO by...
...focusing on short-term profits. A company might sport a high return on equity one year, but what good is that if profitability plunges the next?
Researchers at Jensen Investment Management found that shares of firms with ROEs of 15 or higher for 10 straight years are 35% less volatile than the broad market. And other research shows that low-volatility stocks tend to outperform in the long run.

For my last intaglio project I had to make a print incorporating color on a song of my choosing. I wasn't allowed to be literal with the lyrics and was told to focus on the sound. After much debate I decided to base a print on Jack White's cover of U2's "Love is Blindness." Personally the structure of the song plus Jack White's howling made me think of the idea of falling forever. So I went with the image of falling figures on a dark blue background which I feel gives the sense of infinite space.

Bloguin Best:
Remember week before last when some members of the Montreal Canadiens started to wear "Puck Gary!" hats to skates? Remember how there was concern that it could undermine the NHLPA's message? Well, take it from former player and curent NHLPA assistant to the special director Mathieu Schneider -- he's done it before, and it ended up ok. Heck, you could say Schneider is the forefather to the "Puck Gary" movement. Why? Well, from Redditor GMoney1393 comes this Facebook find:
Well, then. Sure it's low-tech and not as fancy as it is nowadays, but it's funny how the message is the same... from 18 years ago. I'm pretty sure that there are some variants of this from the 2004-2005 lockout too, but coming from one of hockey's nice guys and, funnily enough, at the time a Hab himself -- well, that says a lot. Maybe people in Montreal just don't like Bettman or something. No clue as to why not.
The more things change...

Once a consumer has participated in the orientation for Sweetser's Learning & Recovery Center in Brunswick, he or she has the option to stay in a respite bed over night at the center if needed, and/or have a discussion with a peer support specialist during a crisis event.
Peer Support Services are critical to a consumer's ability to achieve a productive and fulfilling life in the community of his or her choice despite a mental health disability.
Peer Crisis Respite
The Learning & Recovery Center hosts Maine's only Peer Crisis Respite Overnight Program. Using an intentional peer support model based on the work of Shery Mead, Sweetser's Peer Services offer mutual support for people recovering from mental illness, substance abuse or a history of trauma. Crisis Respite includes a short-term stay at the Learning & Recovery Center in Brunswick, recovery groups, art groups, complementary therapies and self-directed learning.
For those who anticipate that they may want to stay at the Learning & Recovery Center in the future, as an alternative to hospitalization, a Crisis Respite interview must be conducted. A respite plan is mutually created between the client and a peer at the center when the client is doing well. It is our belief that it is easier to consider what works for us and is comforting for us when we are not in the throes of a crisis.
Peer Crisis Respite challenges us to move forward through our crisis, allowing ourselves to be vulnerable, feel strong emotions and consider those times an opportunity to grow and change.
The Learning & Recovery Center
At The Learning & Recovery Center, we challenge participants to do something different. That may mean opening oneself up to the possibility of making a new friend, expressing oneself through art, writing or other expressive mediums. Through art, movement therapies, support groups and educational resources, the center aims to empower individuals with opportunities for transformation. When you enter The Learning & Recovery Center, it may not be immediately clear who the employees are and who the participants are. This is by design. We come here as equals and everyone participates as teacher and learner.
For more information, call the Sweetser PromiseLine toll-free at 1-800-434-3000.
The Sanford Clubhouse
The Sanford Clubhouse is a safe and welcoming place for individuals with long-term mental illness to socialize, build lasting friendships and develop job preparedness.
MaineCare, health insurance provided through Maine's Department of Health & Human Services, covers the cost of services. There is no additional cost to be a member. Members are free to attend as they please and participate in a work-ordered day with other members and staff. In addition, members can obtain paid transitional and supported employment positions in the community.
Clubhouse Hours are Monday through Friday, 8:30am - 4:30pm. Most adults receiving adult community integration, ACT or community rehabilitation services can become members. Contact the PromiseLine to determine eligibility - 1-800-434-3000.

I'm getting the notion that some boardies are the type who just stare and prod at penises like a scientist either before or after sex, do any men ever treat vulvas like this? More importantly, what's the plural for vulva? Apparently adding the S makes it misspelled, can't tell if spell check is just a prude or not

I used to get really down about how vile men and dating are but I feel fine now. Maybe that is resilience or maybe I have become such a cold hard bitch I don't care anymore. I would like to think it is 80/20 mix.
I haven't felt the pitter patter of my heart in a long time. What I have learned this year, however, is that lust and genuine interest are really easily confused things. This has been the problem for myself and many of my friends the past year. I have been single now for the past 3 months and have effectively isolated myself enough to be stoked about it. I have been celibate for over a month as well because I'm over the casual sex thing. I want someone to actually know me really well (and care about what they know) before I feel comfortable being naked in front of them or having them fuck me. Am I asking too much?
non sunt in coeli, quia fvccant vvivys of heli
Amy also thinks that 9 out of 10 kinds of sex/affection are gross and weird. I'm not sure that it's a great idea to take relationship advice from someone with the sexual development of a pre-teen.
I would rather die than to ever not care about sex.
Now I'm wondering if I should just give up on companionship and just have sex.

Report on Tri-Chapter Meeting, October 24-28, 2001 The Tri Chapter MLA meeting (Southern, South Central, and Midcontinental Chapters), held October 24-28, 2001, at the Hilton Riverside Hotel in New Orleans, lived up to its billing as something close to a "mini-MLA" meeting, with 50 exhibitors, 55 posters, 45 contributed papers, 15 CE courses, provocative plenary speakers and, of course, lots of fun. The MLA Board, officers and staff were well represented, including, in addition to myself, SC Chair Lynn Fortney, Jocelyn Rankin, Mark Funk, Linda Garr Markwell, former Board member Roz Dudden, JMLA Editor Scott Plutchak, and Carla Funk and Beverly Bradley from Headquarters. This meeting drew over 400 attendees, and was truly a masterful event requiring a huge volunteer effort and excellent cooperation from all three chapters.
Some of the memorable moments from this meeting for me included a great talk by James J. O'Donnell, author of Avatars of the Word, about life after the Internet; live music from a tri-chapter group of musicians including Scott Plutchak during the welcome reception (they didn't sound like they had never practiced together beforehand!); Joanne Marshall waxing eloquent on "Valuing Ourselves and Our Work in the Information Age"; John Barry describing the ill-preparedness of the biomedical community to address the flu epidemic of 1918; Lucretia McClure speaking about those who were her mentors earlier in her career; and more. Exhibits were very well attended; and each chapter held its own business meeting. The fun climaxed with a Halloween masquerade party, more great food, and Cajun dancing.
My MLA update was well received. This meeting was so amiable, everyone seemed to "laissez les bon temps roulez!"
NPC 2002 Site Visit to Dallas, October 29-30, 2001 I flew from New Orleans to Dallas for the NPC 2002 site visit, joined by the Local Arrangements Committee, NPC chairs Connie Poole and Jo Anne Boorkman, staff from Hall Erickson, and Carla Funk and Ray Naegele from Headquarters. We surveyed the hotel and found the exhibit and conference spaces quite spacious. There will be more information forthcoming soon about the exciting program and events planned for this meeting. It promises to be a great meeting!
Legislative Task Force/AMIA Consumer Health Post -Conference I was off then to Washington DC for a round robin of meetings in November. The Legislative Task Force was unable to make visits to the Hill since office buildings were still closed, but NLM updates were provided by Kent Smith and Jane Griffith; and by Miriam Nesbit from the ALA office. In addition to the legislative priorities previously established, the task force discussed creating a position statement about the health sciences librarian's responsibility to promote access to quality information to combat bio-terrorism. Several task force members are drafting a statement and recommended action steps for board review.
We were eager to hear if the Pew Internet & American Life survey results in which MLA participated would be announced at the AMIA consumer health informatics postconference on November 8. There were several references to this study, and publication of the report is expected soon. Attendees included physicians, nurses, public health professionals, librarians, and others, all of whom were excited about using informatics to help empower consumers. Health sciences librarians can and should demonstrate leadership in helping develop the best information solutions for the public.
Are there "take home" messages from all of these meetings? We are very busy people! Our interests are broadening as more health related information becomes available to more people in more ways. We have interests all along the spectrum, from basic access to technology to public policy issues of privacy, cost and fair use; from knowledge of user information needs and search behavior to database design; from recruiting our successors to empowering the public. And of course there are more. Above all, it seems to me that our role as health information experts is what is valued most. We need to continue to be active all along the spectrum of our interests; but we also need to focus on our expert role to really have an impact on society; and we need to find the best ways to communicate this value.
Attending the chapter meetings took me from West coast to East coast to Gulf coast, and was truly enlightening. I am looking forward to spending more time with members at upcoming chapter meetings, and I will be even more impressed by all the wonderful things we are doing.
Investing in Our Future -- Priorities In the past month, three new MLA task forces have begun working. The Task Force on Expert Searching, chaired by Ruth Holst, will identify ways to promote the role of the health sciences librarian in expert searching.
MLA has been responsive to national and world events, where there have been opportunities to promote our members' expertise to help combat terrorism and bio-terrorism. Expect to hear more about all of these initiatives through MLA FOCUS, MLA News, and at the Annual Meeting.
Joint Meeting, MLGSCA and NCNMLG, January 31 February 2, 2002 These two chapters held their joint meeting this year in Scottsdale, Arizona, where expectations of a sunny, warm respite were thwarted by a brief cold spell that drove temperatures down to the freezing mark. It still felt pleasant to me, even though the strange winter weather brought 80 degree temperatures to Chapel Hill on the day I left! The organizers expected a smaller attendance than usual, because of the travel distance to Arizona and possibly due to Sept. 11. Nonetheless registration was around 170, I believe. The two chapters mirror the RML boundaries for the pacific southwest.
The theme of the meeting was "Doing it Ourselves", focusing on new tools, services and roles we can introduce. Scott Garrison (UNC) provided the lead-off keynote talk, inspiring attendees to consider open source software for its power, flexibility and ultimate control. He was followed by Dick Miller (Stanford) expounding on the merits of XML. Scott congratulated Kate Corcoran and MLA staff, among others, for their commitment to using open source software. Kim Dority, who is developing the e-library for Jones online university, followed. She described her entrepreneurial efforts to create a system to fill a market gap serving distance education, and shared advice on how to seize opportunities and manage risk in your environment.
Box lunches were served for attendees at 10 roundtable discussions. I joined the "leadership" table at which conversation touched on the need to recruit new professionals who have the attributes we will need in the future as well as the skills. We discussed the concept that everyone is a leader; and of the need to be capable of promoting one's value in the organization. Some expressed frustration at finding time and money for continuing education courses. Others felt MLA is not responding quickly enough to national opportunities like the Johns Hopkins incident and bioterrorism. I hope I was able to address at least some of these concerns both then and later in my update.
The afternoon was devoted to contributed paper sessions on various topics, and to the RML and MLA updates. The following day's speakers touched on consumer health and minority health information services as a theme; and in the afternoon attendees discussed a presentation by Mike Kronenfeld and Jacque Doyle promoting librarians as intrapreneurs, creating portal-based services for their institutions. An interesting aspect of this discussion was hearing one member express frustration at not having time or money to move forward in new ways, while another noted that, as a new member of the profession, she has never known an un-automated library without an ILS, Medline, and web services. She was clearly a bit frustrated by those who still see such hurdles to moving ahead. But the overall theme of this meeting was clear: we need to act now, in creative ways, to meet needs of our users.
There were two days of CE, and about a dozen exhibits that were well attended. Carla staffed the MLA exhibit that had many visitors. There was a poster session displaying some of the benchmarking materials and I heard compliments especially on the scenarios.
Social events included salsa dancing lessons and a trip to the "art walk" in downtown Scottsdale. All in all, this was a very successful meeting, and I enjoyed the opportunity to meet new people and greet friends and colleagues.
And as always, feel free to contact me with any questions, comments or suggestions.

Several Taylorsville and Greenville streetlights will become dark by order of Indian Valley Community Services District directors.
Director Mike Yost and Fire Chief Jim Hamblin identified 17 nonessential lights with help from PG&E representatives.
In addition, there were two lights outside district boundaries, one in Canyon Dam and one in Mount Hough Estates.
Essential lights are considered to be at intersections, fire hydrants, schools and public places Yost said.
Nonessential lights were chosen on streets with multiple lights, as long as the selected light was not near an intersection.
The move is expected to save the district about $2,500 per year.
Directors will revisit the issue in six months, or earlier if a public health or safety issue arises.
Otherwise, if a resident who benefits from one of the lights wants it back on, he is welcome to make arrangements with PG&E, according to Yost.
The annual cost to the district per streetlight is about $121 for Taylorsville and about $130 for Greenville.
Yost said PG&E workers would place orange caps on the lights they turn off, so that residents will know it's not just a burnt out bulb.
Residents who notice a dark streetlight without an orange cap are encouraged to call the district office at 284-7224. The district is billed for the lights, even if the bulb is burnt out. Chief Hamblin said replacing burnt out bulbs takes a couple days after notice is received.
Greenville resident Mark Delizio, a former director, told them of several lights out in Greenville. On his way to the meeting, he carried the streetlight-shut-off map published in the newspaper March 3, and he drove by many of them.
He did not object to any on the list, and he told directors of similar problems faced by directors almost two decades ago.
For more information, call the district office at 284-7224, or visit indianvalleycsd.com.

Christian Living
True Christian living requires us to live according to Kingdom standards which bring Heaven to earth
Christian Perfection
By: Frank L. Hoffman
Jesus said, "Therefore you are to be perfect, as your heavenly Father is
perfect." (Matthew 5:48)
Chapter 19 H - Can We Have Reasonable Proof of Perfection?
(Wesley's writings are in bold)
As we have been discussing, the person or persons who have posed these questions are constantly stirring the caldron of deception rather than encouraging the pursuit of perfection.
In the previous chapter, John Wesley concluded his answer with: "labor to prevent the unjust or unkind treatment of those in favor of whom there is reasonable proof," a point to which the questioner, in my opinion, responds in an unkind way, doing exactly what Wesley has been encouraging them not to do. And, even to this very day most of the clergy are not listening.
Let's read the exchange that took place at this 1759 conference, as recorded by John Wesley in the nineteenth part of A Plain Account of Christian Perfection.
"Question. What is reasonable proof? How may we certainly know one that is saved from all sin?
"Answer. We cannot infallibly know one that is thus saved (no, nor even one that is justified) unless it should please God to endow us with the miraculous discernment of spirits. But we apprehend those would be sufficient proofs to any reasonable man, and such as would leave little room to doubt either the truth or depth of the work,
(1) if we had clear evidence of his exemplary behavior for some time before this supposed change. This would give us reason to believe he would not 'lie for God,' but speak neither more nor less than he felt;
(2) if he gave a distinct account of the time and manner wherein the change was wrought, with sound speech which could not be reproved, and
(3) if it appeared that all his subsequent words and actions were holy and unblamable.
"The short of the matter is this:
(1) I have abundant reason to believe this person will not lie;
(2) he testifies before God: 'I feel no sin, but all love; I pray, rejoice, and give thanks without ceasing; and I have as clear an inward witness that I am fully renewed as that I am justified.' Now, if I have nothing to oppose to this plain testimony, I ought in reason to believe it.
"It avails nothing to object, 'But I know several things wherein he is quite mistaken,' for it has been allowed that all who are in the body are liable to mistake; and that a mistake in judgment may sometimes occasion a mistake in practice, though great care is to be taken that no ill use be made of this concession. For instance: Even one that is perfected in love may mistake with regard to another person, and may think him, in a particular case, to be more or less faulty than he really is. And hence he may speak to him with more or less severity than the truth requires. And in this sense (though that be not the primary meaning of Saint James) 'in many things we offend all.' This, therefore, is no proof at all that the person so speaking is not perfect.
In other words, if there is no proof to the contrary, and someone speaks of their rebirth and changed life in Christ Jesus our Lord, we are to believe them, in love, just as Paul teaches us in 1 Corinthians 13:4-8a,
4 Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag and is not arrogant,
5 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek its own, is not provoked, does not take into account a wrong suffered,
6 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the truth;
7 bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never fails;
NASUTrue and perfected love always seeks the best in the other person. It even looks beyond the occasional mistake and careless act, unless or until these acts become so blatant that we come to see them as the real nature of the person, such as I believe I'm seeing in the person asking these questions, because he is constantly trying to find fault with everything Wesley is presenting. Wesley is offering his teaching in the way of encouragement, while this questioner is trying to discourage others from following Wesley's teaching by picking at almost every point.
To accept our imperfect behavior is to agree with the devil who corrupted this earth. To seek the restoration of the imperfect into the perfection of God's heavenly will is to follow God.
We need to encourage one another to always seek a higher rung on the ladder to perfection until it becomes second nature to us all and we see God's heavenly will being done on earth as it is in heaven.
The prophet Isaiah reached out in the Spirit of God and saw the perfection of God reestablished in the Peaceable Kingdom, and he wrote (Isaiah 11:6-9 NASV):
And the wolf will dwell with the lamb,
And the leopard will lie down with the kid,
And the calf and the young lion and the fatling together;
And a little boy will lead them.
Also the cow and the bear will graze;
Their young will lie down together;
And the lion will eat straw like the ox.
And the nursing child will play by the hole of the cobra,
And the weaned child will put his hand on the viper's den.
They will not hurt or destroy in all My holy mountain,
For the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord
As the waters cover the sea.

The members of 1997 are psychedelically displayed on the front of this tee Bohemian-Rhapsody-style, while the words "Peace, Love, and Rage" are projected across the back; putting a rocker twist on the mantra of the late '60's.
