Join us every Wednesday!
There are no faith requirements for participation in any LEM worship service or event, ever. You are welcome here.
Congratulations to all our students for the hard work and creativity they put into this year. Here are some photos from our End-of-Year Celebration, a walk through the Arnold Arboretum and dinner out together.
Our Faith
The LEM community gathers for worship in the MIT Chapel, Wednesdays at 5:15, all year long. Students, staff, and faculty come to the Lutheran Episcopal Ministry (LEM) with a wide variety of prior religious experiences and personal beliefs. Our weekly worship services are rooted in the Episcopal and Lutheran traditions. They include prayers, hymns, readings from the Bible, a sermon and Holy Communion. Our life together as a community is less about making sure we all believe the same things, and more about creating a spiritual home where we can engage the 'big questions' together: questions about God, ourselves, our world, discipleship, the Gospel of Jesus Christ, science, believing, knowledge, and much more. Many of us find that praying and thinking about these questions is centrally important to our lives and to the decisions we face every day. All are welcome. Come join us!
The LEM community offering a special blessing for our graduates

Live Design, LDI, and Nemetschek North America, makers of Vectorworks, sponsored a cocktail reception on Friday, March 21 at USITT in Cincinnati, Ohio, in honor of the 2009 USITT Rising Star winner, lighting designer Sean Savoie. The Rising Star Award, sponsored in perpetuity by Live Design and LDI, is presented annually during the USITT conference in recognition of artistic achievement in the areas of scenic, lighting, sound, and projection design, or the convergence of these design disciplines by a young professional. His award included a 2009 Vectorworks software package, presented by Kevin Lindsey.
Savoie, who earned his MFA at the University of Cincinnati, currently works as an LD and production manager in St. Louis. Robert Henke, chair of the Performing Arts Department at Washington University praised Savoie as follows:
"Sean Savoie has performed astonishingly well during his first year and a half at Washington University. His lighting designs for our dance and theater productions have been positively remarkable: subtle, daring, technically impeccable, innovative, and captivating… He clearly works at the state-of-the-art threshold, not merely maintaining our lighting and technical equipment but continually innovating and developing our technical range. He is the quintessential go-getter: energetic, optimistic, independent, and fueled by a seemingly inexhaustible energy source."

Some thoughts on a few of the shows that got 2012 off to a (mostly) promising start. Which means I've already forgotten that ABC's grotesquely unfunny Work It exists — and if you thought that was bad, wait until you see (or better yet, don't) next week's comedy disasters: CBS' offensively stereotypical Rob and NBC's rancid hangover of a dud Are You There, Chelsea? But for now, let's accentuate the (mostly) positive.

Question: I'm not even a Grey's Anatomy watcher, but it was the star power that drew me to the backdoor pilot of Private Practice. I am very disappointed in the recasting of Merrin Dungey, who I thought was just fine when she played Naomi. Audra McDonald does take things too far. As for Amy Brenneman and Paul Adelstein, they are brilliant. I too remember his creepiness on Prison Break, especially his torturing Sarah Wayne Callies last year. His hidden depth in Practice is really great. I enjoy seeing how his love for kids and his work opens him up, and he and Amy have a better shot than Tim Daly and Kate Walsh at the "untouched chemistry" card. I've found myself in situations similar to what his character is struggling with, and it's written perfectly. The nervousness, the desire to not ruin the friendship and the feelings of inadequacy with someone who's having trouble letting go of an ex. It's good stuff, and if they kicked up Violet's interest in Cooper and then hit pause, it would ...

Question: The thing that really annoys me about Private Practice is that every actor is well known already. In fact, many of them have already been leading men or leading ladies on their own TV shows! There won't be any surprise breakout stars with this series, like there were on Grey's Anatomy. Had anyone even heard of Ellen Pompeo, T.R. Knight, Chandra Wilson or Katherine Heigl before that show's first season? It's like we're watching a veteran actor's workshop or something with Private Practice, and that just isn't fun for me.
Answer: Interesting point, although for my money, it's the writing that sets my teeth on edge most weeks. But this brings up the perennial issue about how TV is so much better at creating new stars (and Grey's Anatomy created a bunch of them) than it is at repackaging familiar faces and asking us to accept favorite actors in roles we may feel are beneath them (Amy Brenneman as the wretched Violet, anyone?). So far, my favorite character is Paul Adelstein's

Apparently, Addison goes through girlfriends as fast as she does boyfriends: When Private Practice debuts this fall, Kate Walsh's character will have a new BFF — Audra McDonald. A spokesperson for ABC Studios confirms that the four-time Tony winner has been tapped to replace Merrin Dungey in the role of Dr. Naomi Bennet, Doc Montgomery's confidante. The decision was made for creative reasons. Earlier this month, there were rumblings that execs had concerns that the Private lineup wasn't perfect, especially after some of the actors didn't "pop" with audiences. "Grey's Anatomy was cast off whoever seemed to fit the parts best and have good chemistry," says a well-placed source. "The spin-off was cast with actors the network and studio already had under contract." Nevertheless, there are not expected to be any further cast changes coming before the show goes into production next month. Personally, as much as I love Dungey — particulary her kick-ass stint on Alias — I ...

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I was torn trying to decide between all the different designs. I finally settled on this one in the darker tones for a fall wedding. They are absolutely stunning and I would highly recommend getting the pearlized feature. It gives it that extra bit of "fancy" for being a more informal invitation. The designer even helped me add my parent's names to this invitation when I thought there wouldn't be any room."
"This card is so cute. The white text is easy to read on the black background. I was able to add and remove text as needed with revised proofs sent back quickly. Really happy how the final product turned out."
"We did these in orange and the color was beautiful. We also changed the back design to be a sillouette engagement picture. Printing was great and delivered promptly. I had to reorder since we needed more invites than originally planned. Those were easy to reorder and came quicker than expected!"
"I loved this look but the brown was not in my color scheme and was nervous to do a color change and having to pay before I could see it. I loved the invite so much I decided to do it and I designed it how I wanted it and submitted it. within 10 mins I had a proof emailed to me and it was exactly what I had imagined. Super fast, super cute, super cheap, super awesome"
"I ordered this card with the gray background and had it customized for us. Our names were in a yellow hence my colors are gray and yellow. It's exactly what we were looking for its modern but the font and style made it traditional at the same time. Customer service was awesome in helping with response cards as well. Recommend it! We have gotten great compliments from our guests also. It was nice to be able to personalize it with our engagement shoot photos and the pearl shimmer added a great look to the superb quality of paper."

MiCTA Selects ShoreTel As An Endorsed National Telephony Equipment Vendor
Saginaw, MI (June 24, 2010) – MiCTA, a national non-profit technology consortium, has selected ShoreTel, Inc., as an endorsed national vendor for VoIP telephony equipment. "We are excited to welcome ShoreTel as a new vendor to the MiCTA community," says Tim von Hoff, Chief Operating Officer of MiCTA. "Our members are increasingly turning to Voice over IP to meet their communications needs. ShoreTel can assist our members in extending their networks to include desirable VoIP services."
ShoreTel offers a wide range of IP telephony and unified communications equipment that are designed especially for use in the business and public sector environments. "Our ShoreTel agreement delivers a very attractive, flexible VoIP platform that our members can customize to meet all of their communications needs," says von Hoff. "We look forward to introducing ShoreTel to our membership and working with them through 2014."
ShoreTel was named as a MiCTA endorsed national vendor following a highly competitive bidding process, in which MiCTA invites vendors to propose technology-oriented and telecommunications services and solutions on behalf of its nationwide membership. Once the evaluation process has been completed, MiCTA members may purchase telecommunications and technology-oriented products and services at volume discounts using the MiCTA contract.

The Fieldhouse was packed on Saturday night, and the loud cheers of the Whitworth crowd reverberated off the rounded roof and hit the floor with a deafening crash.
The crowd stood together, it screamed together, it danced together, it celebrated together and it mourned together when the scoreboard flashed the final score -- a 71-63 Pirates loss to Mary Hardin-Baylor in the men's basketball D-III Sweet 16.
Aaron Leetch sat watching, arguably more emotionally dependent on the game than anyone else in the building.
There was one difference. Leetch sat alone.
Sitting high above the Whitworth basket -- on a stage that holds the main scoreboard, some loose wire, a music stand and a pile of pink cloth, among other random trinkets -- Leetch watched the game. He sat on the edge of a folding table, feet dangling off the side, a few inches from the unfinished wooden floor.
This is where the Whitworth athletic director watches many games. A chest-high railing is the only thing preventing him from jumping the 20-plus feet to the court during emotionally-charged moments.
At tipoff, Leetch is all nerves as he sits on the folding table with one hand clutching his phone and the other on his right leg, shoulders slumped forward with a concentrated stare on the court.
As the game progresses, Leetch will have slapped, grabbed and shook the railing. As the game tightened heading into halftime and Whitworth is called for a kick-ball, he grabs both knees to his chest and clutches tightly.
When asked if he's competitive, Leetch just chuckles: "I beat my four-year-old daughter in checkers," he says.
Leetch wants to win, he wants his Whitworth teams to win , but it's so much more than wins and losses.
"True success is much deeper than [winning]," he said, mentioning the importance of earning a degree, growing as people and being servants.
But there are values one can learn from an organized sport, from working to win the task at hand. There are lessons in winning, Leetch said.
"Sometimes it's losing because you learn so much from that," he adds, though, a few minutes later.
After Saturday's loss, it will have to be defeat that the Pirates will have to learn from. It was a disappointing finish after Whitworth stormed back late in the second half to take a four-point lead. At one point during the comeback, Leetch's feet repeatedly kicked into the chest-high, thin wooden wall on the edge of the elevated stage.
"I'm surprised I haven't kicked a hole in this yet," Leetch said.
When the final buzzer sounded and Whitworth trudged off the court sullenly and in a single-file line, Leetch wasn't seething alone behind the scoreboard. He had made his way to the court sometime before the game ended and patted each player on the back as they walked past him.
"Ultimately, I want to make a difference in people's lives, and young people's lives, it just happens sports is a platform," Leetch said.
He stayed after most of the fans had filed out of the Whitworth Fieldhouse, grabbing the team's three seniors after they fulfilled their media obligations and gave them each a hug.
And presumably, he then did what he intends to do.

'Students are being used as bargaining chips'

My suggestions for the budget crisis:
1. Repeal prop 13.
2. Do not pass the DREAM Act.
3. The state can quit NCLB guidelines and refuse the miniscule federal funding. What the state would save in testing fees would offest the tiny bit of Fed dollars for NCLB. (other states have done this)
4. Use the funds saved from non-standardized test driven education to educate students to become 21st century citizens, not just technology driven and circle filling in robots.
5. Vote out ALL members of the CA Assembly who are up for re-election in the next election. And continue to do it until the figure out a solution to the problem the people of CA have created (more props anyone?)
6. Do not allow students to attend public schools if they are undocumented. (financial drain-not a racist statement...I don't care if they are from Eastern Europe, China, Mexico, Indoneisa, Philippines)
7. Stop signing petitions at Trader Joes and other grocery stores. These initiatives create expenses that divert money from education and the general fund.
Then, let's get serious about student achievement. Enoch didn't point out that CA is 48/50 in that, the most important criteria in education. Most inner city schools receive more money than suburban/rural schools and they don't have higher student achievement. SRVUSD is one of the best performing districts in the state. They are stuck with the old rural funding which puts them below surrounding districts in allocated state funds.

New Mexico came into the 2012 Mountain West Conference Tournament looking like the third-best team in a league with a two-team duel at the top. After the Lobos dispatched UNLV and San Diego State on consecutive nights, with a 68-59 win over the Aztecs on Saturday clinching the MWC's automatic NCAA Tournament bid, they're marching off to dance with a bit more pep in their step.
Balanced offense buoyed the Lobos in the MWC final. Seven Lobos had six or more points, led by Kendall Williams and Tony Snell with 14 each. Drew Gordon added 12 points and 12 rebounds, and New Mexico had 15 assists on 20 made field goals.
The Lobos also forced 15 turnovers, and held the Aztecs to 37.1 percent shooting from the field. Chase Tapley and Jamaal Franklin combined for 41 points, but made just 16 of their combined 35 shots from the field.
For updates and coverage, stay tuned to this StoryStream. For more on the MWC Tournament, be sure to visit SB Nation's Mountain West Connection.

A soldier from Staten Island has died after an insurgent attack in Afghanistan.
Staff Sgt. Michael H. Ollis, 24, died on Wednesday, August 28, 2013, in Ghazni Province when a group of insurgents attacked his unit with improvised explosives, small arms, and mortar fire, the Pentagon said.
Gov. Andrew Cuomo ordered U.S. and state flags on state government buildings to be flown at half-staff on Wednesday, September 4, in Ollis's honor.
"Along with all New Yorkers, I extend my sympathy to the friends, family and fellow Soldiers of Staff Sgt. Ollis," Cuomo said. "We mourn the loss of this young Soldier but we will remember and honor his service to our nation."
Ollis, an infantryman, was assigned to the 2nd Battalion, 22nd Infantry Regiment, 1st Brigade Combat Team, 10th Mountain Division (Light) at Fort Drum in northern New York.
Ollis joined the Army in August 2006. He arrived at Fort Drum in November 2011. He previously had done tours in Iraq and Afghanistan. His unit was deployed to Afghanistan in January.
His numerous awards and decorations include the Bronze Star, four Army Commendation Medals, two Army Achievement Medals, the Valorous Unit Award, the Meritorious Unit Commendation, the Ranger Tab, the Combat Infantryman Badge, the Parachutist Badge, and more, according to Fort Drum's public affairs unit.
Ollis leaves behind his mother and father, the Army said.

I must admit that while I quickly latched onto the Big Ben link between the Detroit Pistons and London, England, where the team will play a regular-season game Jan. 17 against the New York Knicks, I failed to see the other big connection.
Jonas Jerebko, all around bad ass and the only Swede in the NBA, is about to play a hell of a lot closer to home. Like more than 2,000 miles closer as the crow flies.
So let's say you're a Jerebko fan and you want to go to the game. You're in luck, roundtrip airfare is only going to set you back around $238 bucks. But what if you have a fear of flying? Don't worry, I've got you covered.
This route has tolls. This route includes a ferry. This route includes a car transport. This route crosses through multiple countries. This route has restricted usage or private roads.

Google's Summer of Code Enters New Round in 2009
Google is still accepting applications up to March 13 for Open Source projects wanting to be mentoring organizations for the Summer of Code 2009. Student applications then open officially on March 23.
As Leslie Hawthorn of Google's Open Source team writes in a blog, Google is soliciting organizations to be mentors to students in their Summer of Code (SoC) 2009 program. The program provides funding for developers that implement particularly compelling ideas in open source projects.
Projects can apply to become mentors up to March 13. Students can then begin applying as of March 23. Google will publish the list of mentor organizations on March 18.
By Google's claims more than 2,500 students have successfully participated in the program over the last four years, paired with an equal number of mentors. The program will take place over a three-month period. More than five million lines of source code have been produced and the SoC has grown to be a virtual institution in open source circles. Details about the program are available here as an FAQ and in the #gsoc channel on Freenode.

Nearly 500 years ago, towns in the Borders were run by ruthless men who would steal cattle and plunder their neighbours to gain wealth and status.
It was a bloodthirsty but colourful time in the region's history, and this weekend, Hawick will remember the Border Reivers through song and drama.

Deadly drinking game takes off on internet
A new internet drinking game has become a trend over in Europe. The game is called Neknomination. The worldwide drinking game reportedly killed two young men this week in Britain in separate incidents of speed drinking a lethal concoction of alcohol after being challenged to "outdo" friends.
Its mantra, according to the Independent, is: -- "Neck your drink. Nominate another. Don't break the chain, don't be a d***.
In this Internet game, players "neck" -- drink all at once -- an outrageous alcoholic drink that might include other ingredients, such as protein powder or even engine oil, and then they "nominate" two others to top that feat. The outcome is then usually shared on Facebook, Twitter or YouTube.
We are concerned by reports of the increasing popularity of the drinking dare NekNomination," Rosanna OConnor, director of alcohol and drugs at Public Health England told ABCNews.com in an email: "The games encouragement of participants to outdo each other with ever more reckless stunts brings with it significant risks of alcohol-related harm including acute intoxication, accidents and injury. There is also the potential for cyber bullying of those who are seen to chicken out. It has already cost lives and we would advise anyone against taking part in the game to avoid putting themselves in a potentially dangerous situation.
Stanley Goldstein, a clinical psychologist from Middletown, N.Y., said teenagers needed to be better educated about consuming large quantities of alcohol in a short time frame.
Isaac Richardson, 20, of Colchester, England, was reported to have died Feb. 9 at a backpacker hostel southeast of London. Richardson allegedly drank a bottle of white wine with vodka, a quarter of a bottle of whisky and a can of beer, pledging to "out do others," according to the Telegraph. Witnesses said he attempted to upload a video on Facebook, but soon became too ill.
Ross Cummins, 22, was found unconscious in a house in Dublin and died later in the hospital after playing the game, according to Irish press reports. Jonny Byrne, 19, died Feb. 1 after consuming large amounts of alcohol and then jumping in a river.
"When you have kids who don't have a clear sense of who they are, they are more likely to be easily led by others who have the same kind of difficulties," he told ABCNews.com. "Teens think they are immortal and don't understand the dangers. They likely get pushed into this sort of nonsense."

New car sales are on the rise in 2014, but not for these slow-sellers.
The Tom Waits song "Ol' 55" was about a Buick. Here's the quote;
Tom Waits (1974) introducing Ol' '55: "This a about a '55 Buick Roadmaster. I don't know if there's any real bona fide Buick owners out there tonight. But my goodness, that's an automobile that I swear by. It's a car that's seriously **** as deer guts on the door knob. Climb aboard one of those suckers, make you feel like a new man. And uh... I always had these cars that I bought for like a hundred and twenty-five dollars. You sink 'bout thirty-five hundred into them, and you sell 'em for twelfe fifty or so. [A lot of noise adjusting the microphone] Rattle like a damned sewing machine... And eh... I stuck to the Buick line for several years. I had two Specials (...) and I had a couple of Centuries, finally I had a Super. And then I finally picked up on this Roadmaster, and lucky to get it! So this is called 'My Ol' '55'." (Source: Passims, Cambridge, November 10, 1974)

Jury selection got underway Monday in the high-profile trial of Andrea Sneiderman, who was previously accused of conspiring to arrange her husband's murder. She faces a 13-count indictment that includes charges of perjury and making false statements.
Only a handful of the 283 people who were asked to complete a jury questionnaire were screened on Monday as attorneys search for 12 men and women who can objectively weigh the evidence in the case. Of that larger pool, 30 potential jurors were questioned on Monday, and more than a dozen were dismissed, most of whom said they couldn't shake the negative image of Andrea Sneiderman.The lengthy screening process of selecting jurors and an undetermined number of alternates could last all week.Earlier Monday, the judge determined that some but not all aspects of the jury selection could be recorded, and that none of the 283 potential jurors could be videotaped at any point in the screening process.
Last Friday, DeKalb County District Attorney Robert James agreed to drop the serious charges – murder and aggravated assault – against Sneiderman. James said that he's not 100 percent she's guilty of murder."I believe that it would be unjust and unethical for the D.A.'s office, for the state, for the district attorney of this county to go forward on a charge that I am not 100 percent sure of someone is guilty of," James told DeKalb County Superior Court Judge Gregory Adams.Adams later accepted the offer.Sneiderman now faces 13 counts, claiming she lied to investigators and on the stand during the 2012 trial of her boss, Hemy Neuman. The latter was convicted of killing Andrea's husband, Rusty Sneiderman. Prosecutors claim Andrea Sneiderman and Neuman indulged in an affair. Sneiderman denies the accusation.The process of selecting a jury for Sneiderman's trial at the DeKalb County Courthouse is expected to take several days.Also recently, defense attorneys unsuccessfully asked for a six-month delay in the case due to the lack of ability to find an objective jury. Speaking to FOX 5, local defense attorney and part-time Meriwether County Judge Jackie Patterson said the defense is fighting an uphill legal battle.

A 14-year-old Gwinnett County girl claims a fellow a student raped her. Police say it happened last week in broad daylight near Dacula High School.The victim said that a 17-year-old senior, whom she knows, approached her after school, according to police. The two then walked across the street to the rear of Dacula Sports where she says he attacked and raped her, authorities said. According to the report obtained by FOX 5, the victim says the suspect pushed her against the wall, forcibly removed her pants and pushed her to the ground. She said that she punched him in the face and throat but it was not until he momentarily relaxed his grip on her that she managed to get away. Students said they were frightened to hear about the alleged attack, especially because it occurred during the daytime.Gwinnett county authorities say they are actively investigating the case.Parents and students who FOX 5 talked with said they have not heard anything from the school system, possibly because this alleged incident did not happen on school property. The school system did not return a call made by FOX 5.
Firefighters are calling a man a hero after he helped save a family from a burning home in DeKalb County.

The Carneval Athletic Pavilion (CAP) is designed to meet the needs of the University's general recreation, intramural, wellness and intercollegiate programs. Drop-in and free-play activities are available daily in every area, from the basketball court to the swimming pool. Informal programs and varied activities are offered throughout the school year.
Students, faculty, and staff can take part in friendly intramural sports year round. Programs for men, women, and co-ed competition are organized on an individual basis with an opportunity to participate in numerous activities. These programs, coupled with Gannon University's concern for the well-rounded physical development of each student, compliment the student's intellectual, moral, and spiritual development.
The CAP will be closed during all University Holidays.
All areas close 15 minutes prior to building closing time. Evening hours on the weekends will be reserved for special events coordinated with Student Living, Student Activities, the Alumni Office, and other university groups. When school is on break, the CAP will be open on a limited basis. The hours will be announced prior to the break period.
While school is in session, September through May , the CAP will be open:
All faculty, staff, students, dependents over 5 years of age, and alumni must scan their Gannon I.D. cards through the system located at the front desk. Faculty/staff dependents may enter the Carneval Athletic Pavilion facility at no charge with a valid photo I.D. card. Dependents may obtain a card from the Campus Police and Safety Office for $5.00. Absolutely no equipment will be issued without a valid I.D. card.
All full-time and part-time Gannon students who are currently enrolled and in possession of a valid Gannon University I.D. card are authorized to utilize the facility and participate in the general and intramural recreation programs.
Upon presentation of a valid faculty/employee I.D. card, all full-time University employees are entitled to the same privileges as described above for students. Adjunct faculty may use the CAP only during the semester that they are under contract to teach.
A dependent is defined as the spouse of a full-time faculty or staff member, a child who is 18 years old or younger, or a child who is claimed on the faculty or staff member's federal income tax as a dependent. All dependents less than 16 years of age must be supervised by a parent or guardian at all times and in all areas (except the locker room if not the same sex as parent). Spouses and dependents (16 years of age and older) have unlimited access to the facility. Dependents of full-time faculty/staff over the age of 18 who are not claimed on the faculty/staff member's income tax return may purchase a membership at the current Alumni rate.
Alumni may purchase a membership to the CAP and will enjoy full privileges upon the presentation of a valid membership card. A photo I.D. card may be obtained at the CAP or from the Office of Campus Police and Safety. A $5.00 fee will be charged for each card.
Guests will be permitted to use the facility if accompanied by a faculty, staff, student, dependent, or alumnus member. All Guests 6 years of age and older pay a fee of $5.00. Guests who are under 16 years old must be accompanied by a parent or guardian at all times. Members may have only 4 guests per visit. Members who bring guests will surrender their I.D. cards for the duration of the visit and are responsible for their guests at all times.

I felt Explorer needs to update their food items; everyday was the same, especially for the lunch buffet - desserts were certainly unappealing at best, never looked 'home made' but appeared sort of 'plastic'. For some strange reason broccoli was not available for your omelets, however brocoli did magically appear at lunch buffets (for salads) as well as at dinner time. Strange...
Dinner was hum-drum, nothing to write home about; our wait staff was terrific though -friendly, professional and so attentive; they were the best part of dinner; the food was never hot - barely warm at best. Very little vegetables served with your entree and when served they were not cooked thoroughly; hard carrots, potatoes - you get the picture. Very disappointing.
We felt as though we were being 'nickel-ed and dim-ed'- for example when ordering cappuccino's, lattes - you had to PAY for them with your Sea Pass which meant this card was constantly being passed around all day long - why doesn't RCCL think of having a 'coffee card' much like Princess has? It's much more convenient - or how about just adding an additional, say, $15.00 per person up front and have these beverages available all day without charging? Also you could not get an iced coffee on Explorer!! You could get a cup of coffee, then another, separate cup full of ice - not at the Cafe Promenade, however - so once you did receive these items YOU could then blend them for your very own iced coffee! What's the deal with that?
The pools on Explorer were small and very crowded - the steps and handrails were slippery - a friend in our group fell the other day and bruised her side.
Really don't think I'll be quick to reserve another cruise on RCCL -

FSFE Receives Theodor Heuss Medal
The Free Software Foundation Europe (FSFE) has received the Theodor Heuss Medal for 2010.
The Theodor Heuss Foundation stressed in giving the medal that the FSFE earned it "through new strategies in demonstrating cooperative values and by acting responsibly for a fairer world." The politically unaffiliated foundation has been granting the renowned medal since 1965 for special services rendered for democratic engagement and civic courage in remembrance of Germany's first federal president (1949-1959), Theodor Heuss. Karsten Gerloff, FSFE president, commented, "Free Software is an indispensable component of a free society in the digital age. It ensures equal access to the information society for everyone."
Georg Greve and cofounder Bernhard Reiter brought the FSFE to life in November, 2000. As Greve responded in gratitude to receiving the medal, "We founded the Free Software Foundation Europe to serve as an independent organisation, fighting for the freedom of society in the digital age. Our work is both about freedom from surveillance and monitoring as well as about freedom for personal initiative in all its forms."

Chicken Little and the "Crisis" of Grid Reliability
The Wall Street Journal published an alarmist piece yesterday depicting California's electrical grid as the victim of a 'looming crisis' brought on by the state's 'growing reliance' on wind and solar. While the success of wind and solar certainly raises new issues in terms of how to plan and operate the future electrical grid, the article overstated the severity of the problem California currently faces.
Its moment in the sun
A REVOLUTIONARY solar-powered aircraft touched down recently at Moffett Airfield, in the heart of Silicon Valley.
Shell Sees Solar as Biggest Energy Source After Exiting It
Royal Dutch Shell Plc (RDSA) says solar power, a business it abandoned four years ago, may expand into the world's biggest source of energy in the next half century.
Affordable Housing Sees Promise in Southern California Solar Market

Solar panels sales energized by lower prices, rebates
A combination of federal and state tax credits, plummeting equipment prices and an environmentally savvy population has led to a dramatic increase in the number of Wilmington rooftops outfitted with solar panels, according to local installers.

U.S., Facing Drought, Wants More Clean Energy, Poll Says
Three out of four Americans think the U.S. needs "to start focusing more" on clean-energy sources like wind and solar that require less water than conventional power generation as the country faces its most widespread drought since 1956, according to a think-tank survey.
Solar Company Adding 1,000 Jobs in Riverside, California

Solar goes utility-scale in Michigan
DTE Energy is building it's first utility-scale photovoltaic plant in Huron County, Michigan. The 485 kilowatt array, being built on leased land from Wil-Le farms, is slated for completion by Thanksgiving. The project's a far cry from the utility-scale projects going up in the U.S. Southwest, which are 100's of megawatts in size, but it represents another step forward in the northern state.

Video: Spicy Asian squid salad
View a printer-friendly version of this post
Mary Constantine prepares a spicy Asian squid salad in this installment of "Stirring the Pot."
Grated zest of 2 limes, preferably organic
1/3 cup minced fresh cilantro leaves
1/3 cup minced fresh basil or mint leaves
1-2 teaspoons chili paste
2 tablespoons best-quality sesame oil
2 tablespoons Vietnamese fish sauce
2 teaspoons raw sugar
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice
2 shallots, trimmed, peeled and cut into thin rings (I substituted with scallion & a touch of fresh minced garlic)
1 tablespoon finely minced fresh ginger
1 1/2 pounds ripe cherry tomatoes
2 tablespoons coarse sea salt
1 1/2 pounds small squid, gutted, cleaned and rinsed, tentacles reserved and tubes cut into 1/3 inch rings (Squid can be purchased already cleaned)
Fleur de sel
In shallow bowl, combine lime zest, cilantro and basil. Toss to blend and set aside. Prepare the sauce by combining chile paste, sesame oil, fish sauce, sugar, lime juice, shallots and ginger into a small jar. Tighten the lid and shake to blend. Taste for seasonings. Pour sauce into large bowl.
Core tomatoes, half them crosswise and cut into thin strips, about 1/8 inch wide. Fill pasta pot with 3 quarts water and bring to rolling boil over high heat. Add salt and squid and cook abour 20 seconds from the time the squid enters the water. Drain immediately and place hot squid in sauce. The squid will better absorb the sauce when warm. Add tomatoes and toss again. Taste for seasoning. Mix in garnish of lime zest, cilantro leaves and basil or mint. Season with fleur de sel and serve warm or at room temp. Yield: 4 servings.

NHP also responded to a vehicle rollover near where the road was closed at mile marker 39 with no injuries reported.

Now the church is preparing to expand its role in the next disaster.
"Today it is important that churches are known for something in their community or they find their niche. The needs in Walker County are many, so we try to be strategic so we can help more people," Pastor Mike Butler said. "We still support our local help agencies like Mission of Hope and Backyard Blessings. However, we want disaster response to be our niche/contribution."
Earlier this month, 10 members were trained in early response at Aldersgate UMC through the United Methodist Committee on Relief.
Topics included how to stabilize and secure homes safely and how to work effectively with survivors and others on the response team.
Church members will be receiving UMCOR's Connected Neighbors training as well so they can develop a disaster plan for the church.
A dozen church members have received training from the American Red Cross, and the church has been approved to serve as a temporary shelter for the agency.
During emergencies, Aldersgate UMC would also be a distribution center and a drop-off point for UMCOR's cleaning buckets and health kits.
Instructions for assembly of the kits are available at the church website.
Butler has become a certified team trainer through both UMCOR and United Methodist Volunteers in Mission.
UMCOR is an international humanitarian aid organization that offers a variety of disaster training programs. UMVIM coordinates short term missions, such as rebuilding efforts.
Butler said Aldersgate's work in disaster relief is made possible by its association with both agencies as well as its partners at the district and conference level of the United Methodist organization.
In April 2011, Butler was serving at Fairview United Methodist Church in Cullman County. Though the church was spared in the storms, the homes of many church and community members were not.
Fairview UMC served as a host for the early response teams that came from all over the United States to help assist tornado survivors.
In August 2011, Butler came to Walker County to help coordinate the long term recovery efforts of the North Alabama Conference of the United Methodist Church.
Housing for volunteer work crews was a pressing need at that time. For the next year, the doors of Aldersgate UMC were open to numerous UMVIM teams.
"As opposed to just putting together a group of guys with hammers, we were able to leverage a lot more resources by hosting," Butler said.
Butler added that the value of the in-kind labor provided by the skilled volunteers likely exceeded the money that also flowed into the county through the Methodist organization for rebuilding efforts.
By the second anniversary, the North Alabama Conference had provided $220,000 to the Walker County Long Term Recovery Committee to address unmet needs.
Butler has been the pastor at Aldersgate UMC since June 2012.
"Our mission is the great commission and great commandment. However, our niche community ministry at Aldersgate is focusing on disaster response/recovery in our community," he said.

Mike Vellucci may have been an unfamiliar name to many Hurricanes fans a month ago, but Carolina added a respected and bright hockey mind when they named him assistant general manager and director...
Peter Karmanos Jr., owner of the Carolina Hurricanes, will be given the Bill Long Award by the Ontario Hockey League for his contributions to the league. Karmanos has been an OHL owner for 26 years, most recently with the Plymouth Whalers. The award is given to "an individual who has made an outstanding contribution to the OHL." Karmanos, who will be honored at the league's annual award ceremony June 9 in Toronto, is the 16th person to receive the award since its inception in 1989 and the first American.
Defenseman Beau Schmitz — who was an unsigned invitee to the Hurricanes' prospect conditioning camp and is currently playing in the Traverse City Tournament for Carolina — recently signed a two-way AHL/ECHL deal with the Albany River Rats, the Canes' AHL affiliate. Schmitz, who played for the Peter Karmanos-owned Plymouth Whalers last season, is an undersized (5-9, 185 pounds) blueliner who has some offensive upside. Although he went undrafted in the June, International Scouting Services ranked him No. 175 and had him as the fifth-most underrated player in the draft. A big thanks to Rat Byte at The Infestation for the heads up.
The Hurricanes continued to stock their cupboards, signing Chris Terry —their fifth-round pick in 2007 — to an entry-level contract. Terry was second in the Ontario Hockey League in scoring last...

The Register-News
---- — When he was asked in 2011 about the possible impact of the sequestration on defense, Chuck Hagel breezily replied that the Pentagon was "bloated" and "needs to be pared down." In his first major speech as defense secretary on Wednesday, Mr. Hagel's assessment was considerably more sober. The $41 billion cut the department is taking this year, he said, "is already having a disruptive and potentially damaging impact on the readiness of the force." He added that he would not "assume or tacitly accept" that "these cuts can be accommodated without a significant reduction in military capabilities."
Still, Mr. Hagel is looking at the possibility of a major new drop in defense spending as an opportunity. He is right, up to a point: There is plenty of waste in the Pentagon budget.
