Allows for symbolization of geospatial data.
For many of us in geotools *this* is the reason we came along for the ride - a pretty picture. The contents of this package are adapted from the OpenGIS® Styled Layer Descriptor specification v1.0.0.
We may experiment with our own (or SLD 1.1) ideas but will mark such experiments for you. This is only an issue of you are considering writing out these objects for interoptability with other systems.
General stratagy for supporting multiple SLD versions (and experiments):
SLD is an XML specification, the definition of objects capturing this information, the binding of objects to these XML documents, and the provision of events on object modification all need to be accounted for.
StyleFactory factory = StyleFactoryFinder.createStyleFactory();
StyleLayerDescriptor sld = factory.createStyleLayerDescriptor();
// an empty sld document
sld.setTitle("Basic Black");
sld.setAbstract("Grayscale style suitable for use with photocopiers");
When creating a complex data structure direct use of a Factory is a pain. Which leads us to the next section.
When constructing a complex data structure, such as an SLD document, the use of a Factory is a bit of a pain. That is where StyleBuilder is brought to bare. A Builder is simply a class that help you construct a complicated data structure, for a make involved/interesting example of a builder have a look at the graph package.

" Santa Clause, The"
Foraged Mushroom Salad with Quail
Join Claud and the gang as they shop San Francisco�s The Ferry Marketplace for local, seasonal, and sustainable ingredients for their "Foraged Mushroom Salad with Quail."
Special thanks to
The Ferry Marketplace
3 large garlic cloves, minced fine
Juice and zest of 2 lemons
3 tablespoons chopped fresh tarragon (or other fresh herbs)
1 teaspoon each sea salt and freshly ground black pepper, plus more for the mushrooms
1/2-cup extra virgin olive oil, plus more for the mushrooms
8 whole quail
24 skewers (soaked in water to prevent burning)
4 cups assorted wild mushrooms, cleaned of visible dirt
2 cups rich chicken or duck stock or low-salt chicken broth
2 cups sourdough bread, torn into 2� chunks
1 cup Italian parsley leaves
1 cup fresh mint leaves
2 cups watercress or other bitter greens
In a small mixing bowl, combine the garlic, lemon juice, zest, freshly chopped herbs, salt, pepper and olive oil.
Place the quail breast side down on a cutting board. Cut completely through the bones on either side of the quail backbone using poultry shears or a large cook�s knife. Remove the backbone and insert bamboo 3 bamboo skewers through each (sideways through the legs, midsection and wings.) Rub a few tablespoons of the seasoned oil mixture anywhere you can get to, including under the skin. Cover squab with plastic wrap and refrigerate anywhere from 45 minutes to 24 hours. (A longer marinating time will yield a more strongly seasoned bird.)
In a small saucepan over medium high heat, reduce duck or chicken stock by 3/4, to about 1/2 cup. Whisk in the remaining lemon-garlic marinade and keep warm until use.
Light barbeque grill or preheat gas grill. Once the coals are fully ignited and cloaked evenly in ash, wire brush the grill and rub with an oiled rag. Grill quail about 3 minutes per side, (rotating 90 degrees halfway through cooking for grill marks) and then transfer to a warm platter and tent with foil.
Toss mushrooms with enough olive oil to coat lightly and season with sea salt and fresh ground black pepper. Place mushrooms in a grill basket in a single layer and grill 3 minutes per side, in batches if needed. Transfer the mushrooms to the platter with the squab and set aside.
Toss bread chunks with olive oil, season with salt and pepper and place in a grill basket. Grill until warm and crisp around the edges turning often to avoid burning.
In a large mixing bowl, toss the parsley, mint, watercress, mushrooms and toasted bread with just enough dressing to coat. Mound some on each plate, balance one or two grilled quail along the sides and drizzle with lemon dressing.

A Royal Life In Raleigh: Chef Walter
A celebrated chef creates more than just great food. He encourages a family atmosphere and a strong community.
Chef Walter Royal is getting ready for a 500-person banquet. He also has to prepare for the nightly business of managing the acclaimed culinary offerings of the Angus Barn in Raleigh. You might think he'd be stressing. But not Walter.
He savors the sweet and the simple. Even with the high stakes job of being the executive chef at a destination restaurant, he appreciates that it's not about the fame or the ego that could be carried by an award-winning culinary pro. It's the simple things that matter, such as family, loving your job, and being there for people.
All those elements come together for Walter, who sees the Angus Barn management and staff as family. He'd rather stay there than take his reputation and strike out on his own. He truly values feeding people--with food, yes, but also with emotional support and knowledge.
Down to Earth
Walter smiles a lot. "We have to be happy," he says, "because the happier we are, the better example we set--especially when
we're in the public eye."
That attitude has won the respect of a growing army of admirers even among foodies accustomed to dealing with high-powered talents. One Southern Living interviewer, for instance, remembers being impressed with how easy Walter was to talk to.
"I expected to meet this really self-important man who was too busy to take time out of his schedule because he was in charge of this major empire," says former Senior Writer Andria Scott Hurst. "But here came this big teddy bear kind of guy--so sweet, so charming, and funny."
But how do the folks who work with him every day feel about the chef? "Walter is very creative and a very good leader and teacher," says chef Betty Shugart, the kitchen manager who's been with the Angus Barn for 44 years. "All the employees are just crazy about him."
An Award-Winning Chef
In 1997 the Restaurant Guild International declared Walter the Five Star Chef of the Year, making him the first African American to earn that distinction. He's been one of James Beard's Rising Stars, one of the Top Five Chefs in the Southeast, the Top Black Chef in America, and the Best Chef in the Triangle.

...Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakthrough by Ruth Pennebaker.
Joanie's ex-husband is having a baby with his new girlfriend. Joanie won't be having more babies, since she's decided never to have sex again. But she still has her teenaged daughter Caroline to care for. And thanks to the recession, her elderly mother Ivy as well. Her daughter can't seem to exist without texting, and her mother brags about "goggling,"-while Joanie, back in the workforce, is still trying to figure out her office computer. And how to fend off the advances of her coworker Bruce.While, as I stated in my review policy, I don't accept adult books for review unless I've purchased them myself, I did make an exception for this one as there is a teen character and Ruth Pennebaker did write YA first. I plan on adjusting my review policy accordingly, because I'm excited for this one!
Joanie, Caroline, and Ivy are stuck under the same roof, and it isn't easy. But sometimes they surprise each other-and themselves. And through their differences they learn that it is possible to undo the mistakes of the past.

Read This Week
Absolutely nothing.
Curse my midterms and an aforementioned bad addiction to Questionable Content. I did, however, make it most of the way through Their Eyes Were Watching God by Zora Neale Hurston for fun, and a significant portion of the way through The Spirit Catches You and You Fall Down by Anne Fadiman for school. (It's a great book that I'd probably be reading for fun if I wasn't reading it for school, by the way.)
Anyway, I promise to be better next week!

Lower your expectations enough and any roadside attraction is a good excuse to stretch your legs, lose a couple bucks, and see a genuine slice of Americana you'll likely never visit again.
But some of these destinations have become kitsch institutions. You might even make a trip just to see them. Or at least you won't regret adding the extra time to your journey.
Salvation Mountain Niland, California
Some people use churches, sidewalks or subway cars. Leonard Knight chose to build a 50-foot technicolor adobe mountain in the desert of Southern California in order to spread his message that "God is Love." Knight passed away on Monday at age 82, according to the Los Angeles Times.
For nearly three decades, Knight built the mountain out of adobe and hay, and he painted it with swerving colors and messages, with the hope of sharing that simple message in a big way. And he's succeeded. At least 50 people visit this giant example of outsider art each day. Knight used to greet visitors until he was hospitalized in 2011.
A group of volunteers now maintain the site. Paint donations are always welcome.
Prada Marfa Valentine, Texas
You've seen the pictures on Beyoncé's Tumblr and your trendy Austin friend's Instagram. No, it's not a Prada store. It's not even in Marfa. The "store" is actually an art installation about a half-hour drive northwest of the small west Texas town that has become a pilgrimage destination for artists and hipsterati.
The $80,000 sculpture was created by Elmgreen & Dragset in 2005. The art duo of Michael Elmgreen and Ingar Dragset wanted to leave it alone forever so that it could decompose into the high desert surroundings, providing a commentary on materialism. But when vandals broke in and stole all the shoes three days after it was finished, the artists decided to make repairs and add video cameras. Don't worry -- you can still be as ridiculous as you want when you hold your photo shoot.

Ruby Falls Chattanooga, Tennessee
While we've come to fear sinkholes, Ruby Falls is proof that they're not all bad. (Although we sure wouldn't have wanted to be walking over Tennessee's Lookout Mountain around 30 million years ago.)
Located 1,120 feet underground, this 145-foot waterfall -- one of the largest publicly accessible underground waterfalls -- was caused by this natural phenomenon.
Stalactites, stalagmites and other cave formations are also explained on the guided cave tours. Tickets are $17.95 for adults, $9.95 for kids ages 3 to 12.

Biosphere 2 Oracle, Arizona
What, you didn't know that earth is Biosphere 1? Well, that's what the developers of this gargantuan lab, known as Biosphere 2, in Oracle, Arizona, consider it. Oil millionaire John P. Allen funded the project hoping it would help us better understand how to colonize Mars.
The 3-acre glass temple included a rainforest, ocean, corral reef, wetland and fog desert. Seven scientists entered the bizarre ecosystem melting pot in 1991 for the first mission. For two years they ran experiments on how to sustain life in a contained environment and when they left two years later, the $151 million project was largely considered a failure. The team had extreme difficulty keeping themselves or the environment healthy.
The University of Arizona took over the property in 2011 and uses it for experiments and classes, and provides daily tours from 9:30 a.m. to 4 p.m.. Admission for adults is $20; $13 for children ages 6 to 12.

Winchester Mystery House San Jose, California
No one is quite sure why Sarah Winchester wanted the construction of her sprawling Victorian mansion to go on as long as she lived. The most exciting theory is that she believed she was haunted by those killed by her husband's invention, the Winchester rifle, aka the gun that won the West.
Apparently she thought she would keep these spirits away if she moved to California and never stopped building. Men worked around the clock until her death in September 1922, 38 years after breaking ground.
The result is an M.C. Escher painting come to life -- stairs lead to nowhere, doors open to reveal walls. If ghosts did make it to her house, they would probably get lost on the way to her room.

CMS Cuts Red Tape, Providers to Save $5B
Health providers and payers stand to save $1.1 billion in one year and $5 billion over five years because of relaxed regulatory red tape specified in two final Medicare rules released Thursday by the Center for Medicare & Medicaid Services.
The numerous changes are designed to eliminate or reduce what Health and Human Services Secretary Kathleen Sebelius called "unnecessary, obsolete, or burdensome regulations" imposed on hospitals and other healthcare providers.
"We are cutting red tape and improving health care for all Americans," Sebelius said in a statement. "Now it will be easier for health care providers to do their jobs and deliver quality care."
A Broader View of Medical Staff
The greatest savings, about $330 million, will come from provisions that broaden the definition of a hospital's medical staff in a way that allows hospitals to grant privileges to both physicians and non-physicians even if they're not on the medical staff. Also, podiatrists who are not physicians may have a role in hospital leadership.
Some of the changes are extremely controversial. In the text of its rule, CMS acknowledged "a significant number of comments from those who were adamantly opposed," with many dissenters "expressing serious concerns about allowing non-physician practitioners to obtain hospital privileges without becoming members of the medical staff," which would "circumvent medical staff oversight" and "detrimentally impact patient safety and quality."
However, the rule says, "we do not believe that any eliminated requirement in this final rule has saved lives in recent decades."
Outpatient Services
The second greatest savings, about $300 million, comes from changes in rules governing hospital outpatient services. For example, the new rules remove the duplicative requirement that a single director of outpatient services oversee all outpatient departments.
A second rule removes requirements that an ambulatory surgery center must use outdated terminology and equipment that aren't necessary for minor procedures not requiring anesthesia.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.
Tom (5/15/2012 at 11:39 AM)
Robert you are totally wrong on all fronts. During the Bush administration as of this time in his Presidency he had enacted 942 regulations. Obama is at 886 for the same time frame. The savings are real. This is money now being spent that will not have to be spent in the future. Your irrational hatred of Obama is yours to have (silly as it is) but please try and have some facts available before you post.
Robert (5/11/2012 at 9:40 AM)
So, CMS makes a bunch of unnecessary rules and then relaxes them and takes credit for $5 billion in fictitious "savings". When they made the rules did they say "this will cost $5 billion?". Now Obama will crow about how he is tackling bureaucracy when his administration has [INVALID]d more rules and red tape then all previous administrations combined.

Such a beautiful list of fn's and mn's! I haven't read the other posts but just by glancing I thought Iona Reverie Delphine or Iona Delphine Reverie would be pretty. I also love Cosima, Mariposa and Clementine (not too fruity imo, I actually like that association, Clementine oranges make me think of Christmas) w/ Ignatius. I love your son's full name, btw.

Congrats!! Exciting times!
My favourite combos:
Mietta Juno Delphine (very pretty)
Cosima Juno Delphine (great match with Ignatious Evander Piet)
Penna Juno Delphine (I am a big fan of Penna- it's sweet but crisp)
Alethea Juno Delphine (love nicknames of Ali or Thea)
Sorry not very creative with middle name combos! But I feel Juno helps ground the more frilly first name options and Delphine is such an exquisite name and sounds good with the first names which end with A sound.

NeoStem to Reach Its Real Value by Year-End
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Within the biotechnology sector, there are many different niches that investors can look at to generate significant returns. However, one space that has routinely been mentioned as a potential breakthrough area is stem cells. When looking at this space, investors must be careful to identify companies that not only have a strong platform, but also have the financial discipline necessary to survive and prosper in the future.
One company that is really standing out as a potential player within this space is NeoStem (NBS). Based on some recent research, it has become apparent that NeoStem has the potential to derive significant revenue from its platform.
NeoStem is a stem-cell company with three technologies for the treatment of diseases with major unmet medical needs. Investors have enjoyed a 54% return over the past two months after two important decisions were made by management.
First, on July 11, the company announced a 1:10 reverse split. Typically, investors frown upon reverse splits, but that decision appears to have created a significant momentum upswing for NeoStem.
Second, on July 23, the company issued a press release that it would begin trading on the Nasdaq on August 5. Although the company had been trading on the NYSE, the move to the NASD allows the company to gain enhanced exposure and potentially receive additional institutional investments. Plus, a Nasdaq listing appeals to investors as it allows for lower-cost trades and faster execution speeds. With the recent 50%+ appreciation in shares, investors are likely wondering if the shares can continue heading higher. After examining the pipeline potential through a sum-of-the-parts valuation analysis, the answer appears to be "yes". The company is pursuing three technologies that include AMR-001 (from NeoStem's subsidiary, Amorcyte), T-cell or Treg therapy (from the subsidiary, Athelos) and VSEL (very small embryonic-like stem cells) technology. The one that appears to have the most potential is Amorcyte's AMR-001 for the treatment of acute myocardial infarction. The company has been enrolling patients in the PreSERVE AMI Phase II trial since January 2012. The goal is to complete enrollment of 160 patients by the end of 2013 and announce the final results during the summer of 2014. Aegis Capital estimates a Net Present Value for AMR-001 to be about $250 million. I believe that the value could be even higher. The company estimates the annual market value for AMR-001 to be in the ballpark of $1.2 billion. So the $250 million is most likely on the conservative side (as it should be). That being said, NeoStem's current market capitalization is $160 million. Based on the potential of AMR-001 for acute myocardial infarction alone, the market appears to be undervaluing the company.Select the service that is right for you!

Mayor Michael Bloomberg and other elected officials and community leaders attended a groundbreaking ceremony today for a new affordable housing complex in the Sugar Hill section of upper Manhattan that will also include educational services and a children's museum.
The $80 million Sugar Hill Development, which is being constructed on the side of a former parking garage at St. Nicholas Avenue and West 155th Street, at the edges of West Harlem and Washington Heights, will offer 124 affordable units.
"This building is genuinely affordable to the lowest economic rung, including homeless people, but also to working people," said Broadway Housing Communities Executive Director Ellen Baxter.
The project is being financed through a mix of city, state and federal funding, along with private investment.
It is part of the mayor's New Housing Marketplace Plan, which Bloomberg announced is 85 percent complete. Its goal is to create or preserve 165,000 units of affordable housing by the end of fiscal year 2014.
"We have been through economic ups and downs which were never predicted, we've been through changes in state and federal administrations, but nothing has deterred us from keeping going and staying on schedule," said the mayor.
The Sugar The complex will feature 124 affordable housing units, an education center for 100 pre-school students and the , which will .
Sugar Hill is the seventh development for Broadway Housing Communities, which has spent 30 years working in the Harlem and Washington Heights neighborhoods.
The complex will also feature an early education center and the Sugar Hill Children's Museum of Art & Storytelling, devoted to the history of the area. The Sugar Hill neighborhood was home to many wealthy and influential African-Americans during the Harlem Renaissance of the 1920s and 1930s.
"We do believe that a museum will sort of honor the legacy of the history of this community which was vibrant and full of art and culture," said Baxter.
One prominent Sugar Hill resident, Thurgood Marshall, the first African-American Supreme Court Justice, parked his car in the garage that used to stand at the site of Sugar Hill Development.
The housing complex is expected to be completed by late 2013.

Imaging of VEGF receptor in a rat myocardial infarction model using PET
2008; 49 (4): 667-673
Myocardial infarction (MI) leads to left ventricular (LV) remodeling, which leads to the activation of growth factors such as vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). However, the kinetics of a growth factor's receptor expression, such as VEGF, in the living subject has not yet been described. We have developed a PET tracer (64Cu-DOTA-VEGF121 [DOTA is 1,4,7,10-tetraazadodecane-N,N',N'',N'''-tetraacetic acid]) to image VEGF receptor (VEGFR) expression after MI in the living subject.In Sprague-Dawley rats, MI was induced by ligation of the left coronary artery and confirmed by ultrasound (n = 8). To image and study the kinetics of VEGFRs, 64Cu-DOTA-VEGF121 PET scans were performed before MI induction (baseline) and on days 3, 10, 17, and 24 after MI. Sham-operated animals served as controls (n = 3).Myocardial origin of the 64Cu-DOTA-VEGF121 signal was confirmed by CT coregistration and autoradiography. VEGFR specificity of the 64Cu-DOTA-VEGF121 probe was confirmed by in vivo use of a 64Cu-DOTA-VEGFmutant. Baseline myocardial uptake of 64Cu-DOTA-VEGF121 was minimal (0.30 +/- 0.07 %ID/g [percentage injected dose per gram of tissue]); it increased significantly after MI (day 3, 0.97 +/- 0.05 %ID/g; P < 0.05 vs. baseline) and remained elevated for 2 wk (up to day 17 after MI), after which time it returned to baseline levels.We demonstrate the feasibility of imaging VEGFRs in the myocardium. In summary, we imaged and described the kinetics of 64Cu-DOTA-VEGF121 uptake in a rat model of MI. Studies such as the one presented here will likely play a major role when studying pathophysiology and assessing therapies in different animal models of disease and, potentially, in patients.

Is America Ready for a Female President—or Just President Hillary?
Pollsters Jeffrey Liszt and Lisa Grove shared that in a recent survey of voters in battleground states, a whopping 72% "believe that it is likely that our next president will be a woman." This information, of course, makes sense only in a political landscape featuring Hillary. It may be that nearly three-quarters of voters are ready (perhaps even eager) to elevate a generic woman to the Big Chair. But, absent Hillary, no way 72% of any group would consider such an outcome likely in the very next election.
Agree with that, tumblr?
Can Women Succeed Without A Mentor?
Asks Peggy Drexler:
Studies show that historically women have reported a more difficult time finding mentors than men do, which has led to a number of mentoring networks aimed specifically at connecting women with female mentors. In a 2010 World Economic Forum report on corporate practices for gender diversity in 20 countries, 59 percent of the companies surveyed said they offer internally led mentoring and networking programs, and 28 percent said they have women-specific programs. But with women squarely positioned as the driving force behind U.S. labor force growth—projected to account for 51 percent of the increase in total growth through 2018, according to the U.S. Department of Labor—what will happen when there aren't enough mentors to go around? A 2011 report by McKinsey Research pointed out that women are claiming 53 percent of entry-level management jobs, but that after that, the numbers drop: to 37 percent for mid-managers, and even lower, to 26 percent, for vice presidents and up.
A woman who was raped by her friend in India, and who is now dealing with a case in the High Court, is telling her story to the Women in the World audience. The lights are out. Her back is to the audience. And we don't know her name. This is what the livestream looks like at the moment. She is doing this as a precautionary measure fearing backlash from her own people. Such a brave woman.

International Women's Day, March 8"Mallarme said that everything in the world exists in order to end in a book. Today everything exists to end in a photograph." —Susan Sontag
Hanna Putz (featured in the first slide of this preview) nurtured her awareness as a photographer, starting out as a model in front of the camera. Echoing Sontag's sentiment, she has looked for ways to shake up the "permanent posing" of her generation. In creating portraits of friends who had recently given birth to their first children, she noticed a remarkable shift in awareness. "Their attention is mainly on their child, and [they] are also in some kind of a transitional phase, as they are adjusting to the new role that has just been given to them," said Putz in an interview with BJP.
On the occasion of International Women's Day, Newsweek & The Daily Beast features work from 15 talented women who represent a range of remarkable awareness as lovers, daughters, mothers, and foremost artists.

2013 Season
"The Dybbuk": Between Two Worlds"
The classic tale of love and mystical possession, in a new adaptation.
April 25 and 28, 2013 7:30pm New Hazlett Theater
Part of the Pittsburgh Symphony Orchestra's Music for the Spirit Festival
Join our mailing list
Follow us on Facebook!
About the Festival
Praised as "one of the highest-quality concert series in town" (Pittsburgh Tribune-Review), the Pittsburgh Jewish Music Festival is an annual summer concert series devoted to improving cultural life for Pittsburgh's Jewish and artistic communities at large.
The 2013 Season brings our 10th Anniversary production of the The Dybbuk: Between Two Worlds: a multimedia chamber opera composed by Ofer Ben-Amots and inspired by S. Ansky's timeless Yiddish play of the same name. This brand new production features singers, a choir, and brand new choreography performed by Texture Contemporary Ballet.
A young woman, Leah, near-death, awakens to the whisper of a clarinet. She slowly realizes the sound is the spirit of her dead lover Hannan. As the rest of the opera unfolds in flashback, she must choose between life with a man she does not know and death with her beloved, who has possessed her as a Dybbuk: a deceased soul who takes possession of a living body.
The music intertwines folk elements with contemporary textures to create a haunting, self-contained world, while multiple video projections and dance combine to tell a powerful story of faith, mysticism, and passion between two ill-fated lovers.

Poetry Month
Kate Moos, Managing Producer
I subscribe to a daily poem from the Academy of American Poets. For me, it's the pause that refreshes, like the videos that Trent likes to watch. This one bonked me on the head. Click on the header above to read this beautiful poem by Alan Shapiro. (text of poem removed from post in deference to author copyright).
A Peabody Award!
We're all a little giddy around here today. This morning we learned that we won a 2008 Peabody Award, for our program on Rumi. This is broadcasting's highest award, and for us it is a sign of arrival. Speaking of Faith launched almost five years ago as a weekly show. In the beginning, many simply didn't believe that it would be possible to put a program on religion on the air without alienating, inflaming, or proselytizing.
It has been a great adventure pulling that off. And it has been a team effort to say the least. I include our listeners in that - listeners who encouraged and supported us and their public radio stations along the way, saying that, yes, this subject is too important not to risk finding a way to do it differently and get it right. I've sensed this past year that we are hitting our stride, finding our voice, in so many ways, and this award feels like a confirmation of that.
We will keep risking, experimenting and, I hope, getting better and better. But, for today, we're celebrating and not getting much work done! Take a look here at the great company we're in.
Secrets and Families
Kate Moos, Managing Producer
Honor Moore has a memoir coming out in May called The Bishop's Daughter, which was excerpted recently in The New Yorker. It tells the story of her father Paul Moore, a prominent, progressive Episcopal bishop in New York who passed away in 2003, and it reveals what had been a personal and family secret: that this father of nine children and sitting bishop had many homosexual liasons and apparently at least one long-term relationship with a man.
Although Honor Moore's account is understated, and written with remarkable compassion for her father, this story disturbs on so many different levels I'm not sure I can count them. It raises the spectre of the Episcopal Church's deep division over the installation of an openly gay man, Gene Robinson, a few years ago. It reminds us of the destructive power of the closet. It begs the question of how Paul Moore managed this falseness and somehow kept his world from absolutely crumbling. And, it surfaces another in a fairly remarkable recent string of revelations about sexual secrets in the lives of powerful and famous men — men, in particular, for whom keeping such secrets had extraordinary and inevitable consequences.
Adding to the pathos, a letter from three of Honor Moore's siblings in this week's New Yorker questions the ethics of her posthumously outing her prominent father. Certain to sell books, but what are we really learning (anything?) about spirituality and sexuality, and secrets?
Tony Soprano, Ojibwe Poetry, and "Technicians of the Sacred"
We do talk about big ideas at work. But we also talk about what TV shows we are catching up on. I happen to be watching the final season of The Sopranos on DVD. I will not include a spoiler here. But I will mention a minor but significant plot element that occurrs in one episode — an Ojibwe poem I first read in the break-through anthology Technicians of the Sacred years ago. Here it is, in one of its many variant forms:
Sometimes ISeeing this poem turn up on TV was like bumping into an old friend in an unexpected place after many years. Watching the haunting impact it had on Tony Sorprano reminded me of my first reading of it, which might be something like: "Get over yourself. Life is changeable and various."
I go about pitying
While I am carried by the wind
Across the sky.
But I actually learned something from Tony Soprano's take on it, which I would characterize as slightly different — and oddly even more positive — than mine: "Stop feeling sorry for yourself. Life is a long, wonderful journey."
Technicians of the Sacred changed how many writers thought about literature and poetry in the 1970s. It's gratifying to see that it is still being carried by the wind across the sky.
Move On Up, with Marva
I can't think of my mother without thinking of Mahalia Jackson's recording of "Move On Up a Little Higher", with its promise of seeing one's loving mother in heaven, and its crazy-ecstatic refrain, It'll be always howdy howdy and never goodbye, that makes me just fall apart. The heart-stopping idea is that loss is erased, that it's just gone from us, in heaven.
My mother died in 1984, when she was 69 years old, of emphysema, in a race with heart disease. Her health was poor; in addition to lifelong asthma from hay fever and allergies, she had crippling osteoporosis and serious circulatory problems. She was also a life-long smoker, and — bless her — an alcoholic who stayed sober for over 25 years before her death. Like the other lucky ones of her generation, having squared themselves with their Higher Power and found sanity and sobriety in A.A., she smoked like a true addict, as Bill Wilson himself is said to have smoked, as if her life depended on it.
I'm my mother's difficult youngest daughter, and one of her children who got the heritable propensity for addiction. Addiction: the blessing-curse that instructs me each day in who and what I am, as a guest on SOF once said. All by way of saying that having spent much of my childhood complaining loudly about my parents' cigarette smoke and begging them to roll down the windows of our crowded Chevy station wagon to let some air in, I became a smoker in my late teens, and stayed a serious smoker long past the time most people had quit.
A year ago today, just as Krista Tippett and I were about to embark on the tour for publication of the hard cover Speaking of Faith, I too quit, using a smoking cessation medication called Chantix. Unbelievably, it worked.
It seems obvious to say I had no idea what I had been doing to myself with my cigarette habit, but it is sadly — even pathetically — true. And I don't mean just the awareness that I was contributing to the threat of early death or ill health. I mean that once we lose our freedom, it's almost impossible to know what it is to be free. Living life on a short leash didn't seem odd, or unusual. It seemed like life. That's one of the reasons so many of us, who in one form or another have had to come to terms with addiction, are actually grateful for it. As I am, today, marking 365 consecutive days of freedom, in memory of Marva Maxwell, my mom.
Irish Singing, Old School
by Mitch Hanley, senior producer
In production on next week's homage to the late John O'Donohue, I have been researching Celtic music, attempting to not have a show full of jigs and reels, but to have a good cross-section of this genre. I came across this style of Gaelic singing, sean-nos, meaning "in the old style," in a YouTube video of Iarla O'lionaird (fronts the band Afro Celt Sound System) singing in a pub.
Imagine yourself in a tucked away nook of Ireland, hearing this haunting, sad melody, carrying you back some thousands of years. It is just beautiful.
Also fun is trying to follow along with the words…
Bog braon, bog braon, bog braon don tseanduine,
bog braon, bog braon, bog braon don tseanduine.
Cuir a chodladh, cuir a chodladh, cuir a chodladh an seanduine,
cuir a chodladh is ní a chosa is bog deoch don tseanduine.
Ubh chirce, ubh chirce, ubh chirce don tseanduine,
ubh chirce is blúire ime is a thabhairt don tseanduine.
Feoil úr, feoil úr, feoil úr don tseanduine,
feoil úr is braon súp is a thabhairt don tseanduine.
Language Is Never Innocent
Kate Moos, Managing Producer
The former New York Times and Bloomberg journalist Doug McGill is someone we have tried to have on the show a few times and will certainly have on at some point. Schedules just kept getting in the way — mainly ours, come to think of it.
He writes wisely and compassionately about communications and the responsibilities of people who get paid to communicate, and he does so outside of the self-justification and defensive crouch professional journalists often like to adopt.
Krista and SoF as Blogonauts
Kate Moos, Managing Producer
The blogosphere serves many masters. A personal space for rumination and reflection. An op-ed page. A "Dear Diary" for the literary aspirant. A free training ground for the next great essayist.
Not wanting to blog a dead horse, but as new as we are to blogging here at SoF, we are now blogging hand over fist. This week Krista is the featured author-blogger at Penguin, in honor of the new paperback edition of Speaking of Faith: Why Religion Matters—and How to Talk About It with new features like an index and a discussion guide.
And, as we blog, we're talking about how we're doing it, what are the optimum lengths for entries, and whether or not we're achieving material our audience is interested in. What do you think? What would you like more of or less of? More opinion and less personal narrative? More personal narrative and less daily journal? What do you look for in a blog?
National Cathedral to Dupont Circle Yoga to Princeton
Kate Moos, Managing Producer
A fabulous turn-out yesterday at the National Cathedral. It looked like six or seven hundred people in the pews, filling the nave of the Cathedral for the Sunday Forum, during which Dean Sam Lloyd interviewed Krista — always a treat, I think, for the listeners to hear Krista's take on the sorts of questions she puts to others. Keep an eye on the Cathedral's site for video. (We'll be getting a copy as well for possible posting here.) Also very nice to meet and work with our friends at WAMU on this visit, especially Andrea Travis, who really helped make it a fine event.
We made a quick turnaround and headed for a Bikram yoga studio in Dupont Circle… just the thing to wring out any remaining adrenalin and balance the energy after a big event!
My phone is not cooperating in attempts to send pics, so I'll try to figure out what the problem is. Later today a train to Princeton for the final event on this trip. More soon!
Krista at the National Cathedral
Kate Moos, Managing Producer
Krista and I head out tomorrow for D.C. where we have another event in our 2008 World Tour, at the National Cathedral's Sunday Forum. Our travels are exciting, and by far and away the best thing about them is meeting our listeners. It's just an amazing gift. The event is at 10 am Sunday February 3rd, and is free and open. See you there!

Manager Donald Kilbride invests in firms with low debt and high returns on equity and a history of regularly raising dividends. That's led him to high-quality names such as Johnson & Johnson (JNJ). The fund, which yields 2.2%, has proved steadier than its peers.
