Bhakti Kal, devotional Period In Hindi Literature
Theoretical developments in the poetry forms contoured the development of the devotional period in Hindi literature.
The medieval
Hindi literature
and its sufficient maturation was marked by the influence of
Bhakti Movement
and compilation of lengthy, epic poems. Avadhi and
Braj Bhasha
were the primary dialects in which literature in Hindi was developed. The principal works in Avadhi include Malik Muhammad Jayasi`s Padmavat and Tulsidas`s Ramacharitamanas. The foremost works in Braj dialect are Tulsidas`s Vinaya Patrika and Surdas`s Sur Sagar. Sadhukaddi was also a language used for wide reasons, especially by Kabir in his poetry and dohas.
The Bhakti kal or devotional period in Hindi literature also was accentuated by great theoretical development in poetry forms, predominantly from a blend of older forms of poetry in Sanskrit School and the Persian School. These included Verse Patterns like Doha (two-liners), Sortha, Chaupaya (four-liners), etc. This was also the epoch when Poetry was differentiated under the various Rasas. Distinct from the Adi Kaal (also stated as the VirGatha Kaal), which was characterised by an overindulgence into Poetry in the Vir Rasa (Heroic Poetry), the Bhakti kal had marked a much more sundry and vibrant form of poetry, which spanned the whole ambit of rasas, from Shringara rasa (Beauty), Vatsalya Rasa (Love), Vir Rasa (Heroism), Prema Rasa (Romance) etc.
Bhakti Kal or the Devotional Period in Hindi literature had extended within the time period of 14th and the 17th centuries. Coming basically under the medieval period in India, the country had by then been almost seized by Muslim rulers and their Islamic region. As such, the Bhakti kal had witnessed Islamic customs almost being upon thrust the common populace, and Hindus consequentially being quite demoralised at the outcome on their culture. Poets from the devotional period sensed that it was their moral duty to stimulate and stir a sense of devotion throughout religious poetry. These poets have since been classed into two groups, comprising: Nirguna and Saguna poets, depending upon their devotional attitude towards the Lord. Nirgunas have been further sub-divided into two classes, on the basis of the different sadhanas (disciplines) espoused by them.
Those that laid emphasis on the importance of knowledge for the realisation of the Omnipresent, were referred to as the `Saint poets`. Kabir Das, Guru Nanak, Dharma Das, Maluk Das, Dadudayal, Sunder Das precisely belong to this genre in Hindi literature. The Saint poets through their Sakhis (couplets) and Padas (songs), had condemned rituals and had accentuated upon the theory of `Monotheism`. Poets who conceived that love was the sole path to realise God, were referred to as Sufi Poets, a significant development in the advancing Hindi literature. Jayasi, Manjhan, Kutuban and Usman were the pioneers of this school of writing and belief. Poets belonging to the Saguna style are also classed into two groups, including: the followers of Rama and those of Krishna.
Tulsidas is the leading poet of the former group together with Agra Das, Nabha Das and Pran Chand Chauhan. Tulsidas portrays Rama as the Ideal Man in his classical works Ramacharitamanas, Gitavali, Kavitavali and Vinay Patrika. The devotees of Krishna have, however, redrawn him according to his popular image, that of the playful Krishna. These poets like Surdas, Nand Das, Parmananda Das and
have voraciously penned about the Love and Beauty. The Devotional Period or Bhakti kal in Hindi literature indeed had given rise to `immortal literature` and is distinguished as the Golden Age of Hindi Poetry.
Bhakti kal in Hindi literature was also the age of remarkable integration between the Hindu and Islamic elements in Arts. This integration had been possible primarily with the arrival of umpteen Muslim Bhakti poets like Abdul Rahim Khan-I-Khana, who was a court poet to Mughal emperor Akbar and was an ardent devotee of Krishna. The Nirgun School of Bhakti Poetry was also enormously secular in nature and its propounders like Kabir and
Guru Nanak
attracted a large number of followers, regardless of caste or religion.

a few months ago, my friend nadya requested a blog entry for songs conatining the present perfect continuous structure. great idea!!
fun english practice :) subscribe to the richyrocks english youtube channel
present perfect continuous is used to indicate something happening from a point in the past until the present. it is often used with since, to refer to a specific point in the past; or for, to refer to duration.
the phil collins song in the air tonight appeared in two different miami vice episodes, including the pílot. right after the unmistakeable drum solo around 2:40 the lyrics are
i can feel it coming in the air tonight, oh lord
and i've been waiting for this moment for all my life, oh lord
stevie wonder's song that girl has these lyrics at 2:05
i've been hurting for a long time
and you've been playing for a long time
you know it's true
i've been holding for a long time
and you've been running for a long time
it's time to do what we have to do
and then at 3:30
she says her love has been crying out
but her lover hasn't heard
but what she doesn't realize is that I've listened to every word
the 2007 disney movie enchanted opens with the song true love's kiss.
subscribe to richyrocks on youtube
the chorus appears for the first time at :30 and includes the lyric
i've been waiting for a true love's kiss
ball and chain by social distortion (my favorite on this list, btw) at 3:00 says
well, i passed a bar on the way to my dingy hotel room
i spent all my money, i been drinkin since half past noon
the chorus of rasmus' song in the shadows is
i've been watching
i've been waiting
in the shadows all my time
i've been searching
i've been living
for tomorrows all my life
which song is your favorite? which is the most memorable example of present perfect continuous?

Claire Yan, special for WTOP
WASHINGTON - The nation's capital is a diner's paradise for gourmet foodies, carnivores, seafood enthusiasts and artistic pancake lovers alike.
TripAdvisor, a free online research and travel guide for tourists, has compiled a list of Top 25 restaurants in D.C. that includes French-Belgian fine dining at Marcel's and Greek restaurants like Komi and Zaytinya. The winners were awarded "by millions of real travelers," according to the website.
French and Belgian restaurant Marcel's claims the list's number one spot. Located at 2401 Pennsylvania Avenue, it has been acclaimed for its gourmet cuisine by the Washington Post and Zagat. The fine dining establishment is run by chef Robert Wiedmaier, who is known for his attention to detail and whole animal butchery.
At Michel Richard Citronelle, chef Michel Richard's realm of fine dining, French cuisine fuses with American food. Located in the Latham Hotel at 3000 M Street, the restaurant scored number two on the TripAdvisor list. The restaurant was dubbed "one of the world's most exciting restaurants" by Condé Nast Traveler magazine, and Richard was also awarded Outstanding Chef and Outstanding Wine Service by the James Beard Foundation in 2007.
These top two restaurants may seem too pricey for some, but most of the Travelers' Choice list is comprised of places that serve equally delicious food with great fixed deals and lower prices in more laid-back atmosphere.
Specializing in modern Indian cuisine, Rasika is suited for those with an adventurous palate and a kick of spice. Ranked in third place, the restaurant offers Tawa (open griddle) and Sigri (open barbecue) methods of cooking, along with multiple regional dishes like tandoori and chutneys. This restaurant, appropriately named "Rasika" after the Sanskrit word which means "flavors", is ideal for lovers of ethnic foods.
Number 17 is for all the meat lovers out there. Fogo de Chao is undoubtedly the place to go for a night of carnal indulgence. At the authentic Brazilian steakhouse, located in the Evening Star building at 1101 Pennsylvania Avenue, gaucho chefs serve 15 different cuts of grilled meats tableside. The meat is prepared in the gaucho fashion, a grilling method traditional to Porto Alegre, Brazil.
Some of the freshest seafood in the capital can be found at number 21. At Hank's Oyster Bar & Lounge, in Dupont Circle at 1624 Q. Street, oysters and clams can be ordered on the half shell, and peel n' eat shrimp is served either hot or cold.
For those looking for a cozy and casual café for brunch or a quick bite between meals, Busboys and Poets at number 23 has everything from hummus, classic burgers, hot panini sandwiches, and soups. The restaurant prides itself on being a community gathering place for "artists, activists, writers, thinkers and dreamers", where patrons can come to feed their "mind, body and soul". It is also an avid supporter of local businesses and uses clean power from renewable energy sources such as wind. Busboys & Poets also holds occasional open mic nights and discussions by authors.

Actor Patrick Dempsey is no stranger to racing. After his wife sent him to a three-day Skip Barber driving school, the actor fell in love with road racing has gone on to compete in Grand-Am for the last several years. McDreamy even got the chance to race at the 24 Hours of Le Mans in 2009, finishing in 9th in the GT2 class behind the wheel of a Ferrari F430 GT.
After getting a taste of Le Mans, Dempsey now has aspirations to return to the legendary endurance race, but this time with his own team and his own car. At the 12 Hours of Sebring earlier this year, Dempsey Racing announced that they would be fielding a car in the P2 class for part of the 2012 ALMS season with the eventual goal of competing at the 2013 24 Hours of Le Mans.
Dempsey and his team took the first steps towards their Le Mans goal this past weekend by debuting their new V8-powered Lola B12/87 race car in the P2 class at the six-hour ALMS race at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca. This was Dempsey's first time driving a modern prototype race car, and he admitted there would be a steep learning curve.
"It feels familiar but so much more intense – the braking, the acceleration, cornering and power, it is all on a much more dynamic level than the GT cars I have driven," Dempsey said after a practice session with the car. "It's an amazing machine and it is incredible to even have the opportunity to race in a car like this at this level, and what better track to start with than Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca."
Dempsey and his team eventually finished 30th overall and fourth in class – not bad for a brand new team with a rookie driver. They plan to compete in several more races this year and will be running the full ALMS season in 2013.
You can see photos of the Dempsey Racing Lola B12/87 at Mazda Raceway Laguna Seca in the gallery above.

Dispatches from the War on Christmas
Garrison Keillor lobs this possibly elitist, possibly antisemitic, probably satirical (and definitely poorly written) op-ed piece, "Don't Mess with Christmas," from behind the Christian traditionalist parapet.
Meanwhile, Fox News flips sides, commits an act of treason and explodes a "Happy Holidays" message all over its unsuspecting "Merry CHRISTmas" favoring viewers.
And Australian singer-songwriter Tim Minchin rests invisibly in a tree, quietly picking off people on both sides of the battlefield with this anti-religion, pro-Christmas song…
There's so much blood. So, so much blood.

Normally, I would be upset at Harry Reid and Joe Biden for their disparaging remarks about the grass-roots political movement known as the Tea Party.
And though I'm not happy with it, I'm not angry.
The remarks by the two liberal socialist politburo simply shows that the Tea Party works, is strong and getting stronger and is effective.
Of course, Harry Reid hates us because for the first time in his political career, he literally had to fight for his life. He never won by such a small margin before.
As Tea Party members, we are used to the piling on since our birth. We've even gotten from some in the Republican Party. Liberal Republican John McCain even went so far as to call us 'hobits'.
How did we deserve this name-calling from the party that called for a kinder tone in wake of the senseless shootings in Arizona of Gabrielle Giffords and several staff members?
We won. We didn't get what we wanted in the debt deal but we denied Obama a clear cut victory. He is now under fire from some of his staunchest supporters in the far left liberal party.
Instead of denigrating a large section of average Americans, you would think that a president so worried about his reelection prospects would realize that we mean business and will not take overbearing taxes and watch our tax dollars get squandered on a socialist agenda.

From CES 2008, Brian Tong takes a look at the EchoStar TR-50 DVR, a digital over-the-air receiver with DVR functionality.
EchoStar's first non-Dish DVR may be the perfect fit for viewers without satellite or cable.
Dish Network's antenna-only DTVPal DVR may be dead, but you can still get the Channel Master CM-7000PAL, which appears to be the identical product.
CNET's full review of the DTVPal is up, offering lots of praise for its electronic program guide, but knocking its mediocre remote.
Follow the companies that are shedding workers with this live layoff tracker, which we'll continue to update as more news surfaces.
That and other important questions are answered in today's show, where we're joined by John C. Dvorak in dissecting the new Facebook Terms of Service, the New Zealand blackout over copyright law, and the last-minute saving of SiriusXM.
Palm releases a hot new phone and we ask ourselves if the Palm Pre is its saving grace or just destined for failure. Also, Ford trucks get remote PC access, and Lexus thinks it's a good idea to spam you while you are driving!
The video recorder, which can record over-the-air digital and high-def TV programming, will hit stores almost 11 months after it was first announced.
Dish Network adds a third DTV converter box to its lineup, the DTVPal Plus, which offers the same functionality as the TR-40 CRA, but with improved reception.
In today's show, Rafe joins us for a discussion of useless video blobs, the implications of, uh, Internet "shopping," the NPD numbers that read Tom's mind, and the U.S. Senate's "enormous gift" to Big Content (per Ars Technica).

The Council of Large Public Housing Authorities highlighted Portland's Resource Access Center (RAC) project in its recently-released "Public Housing Authoritis: Local Challenges. Innovative Solutions."
"Designed to focus on the most chronically homeless populations and streamline access to existing services, it is designed and developed to enhance neighborhood livability" the authors write. They note that the building will be LEED Platinum certified, producing 60% fewer emissions than a traditional structure, and praise its groundbreaking urban infill design, which includes an interior courtyard and internal waiting area.
Nick is quoted as well, saying that the RACC will "provide a front door to services that transition hundreds of people out of tents, doorways, and cars into safe and decent homes."

Nationally, dental disease affects nearly half of children ages 6-15, which includes decayed or missing teeth. According to the American Journal of Public Health, children with dental disease are more likely to miss time at school and are four times more likely to have a GPA below the national median of 2.8. Oral health is an integral part of overall health and dental issues can affect a child's nutrition, self-esteem, or exacerbate other medical conditions. In addition, children of lower socio-economic status often have limited access to dental services to address their dental issues. The Mendocino County Maternal, Child and Adolescent Health Needs Assessment showed that children ages 2 to 11 in Lake and Mendocino Counties visit the dentist less frequently than children elsewhere in the state. This lack of access combined with dental disease creates a cycle that negatively affects children and their health outcomes in Mendocino County. Mendocino Community Health Clinics (MCHC) aims to break the cycle by providing free oral health education, dental screening and fluoride varnishing services each year to students at local schools through the Smiles Program.
The Smiles Program reaches over 2,300 preschool and elementary school students annually in Ukiah, Willits and Lakeport. MCHC targets schools with at least half of the student population on free or reduced lunch plans to reach children who are most vulnerable or at risk. The Smiles Program utilizes education, screening and varnish services in concert to help address health issues that affect children.
At each school this year, MCHC HealthCorps member Tom Fuchs first provided age-appropriate comprehensive oral health education to students, modifying his lesson for each grade level. Fuchs worked this year to incorporate material explaining the importance of having a balanced diet and avoiding sugary foods into the lessons. He detailed to the students how sugar and poor oral health practices can cause dental disease. He encouraged students to be mindful of how their diet choices affect their health illustrating the connections between oral health and overall health. Fuchs explained how sugary foods can affect not only teeth, but weight and the potential onset of disease. "It has been a great experience to be a part of providing this valuable service," he reflected when asked about presenting the education material. "It's amazing how engaged the children were during the lesson the kids had great questions and I'm glad to have had the opportunity to interact with them."
After Fuchs provided the education portion of the Smiles Program, MCHC dental staff visited the same classrooms at a later date to provide free dental screenings and fluoride varnishes. The screenings help alert parents of potential dental problems and the varnishing provides a protective coating to help prevent cavities. "I'm proud to say that the staff looks forward to going into the schools and I regularly get very positive feedback," said Becky Driscoll, MCHC's Dental Department Manager and coordinator of the Smiles Program. "There is an understanding of how valuable the Smiles Program is to some of the children and we're all glad to have an impact."
Children with healthy teeth can be spared the pain and developmental setbacks that dental disease can bring. "It is a cliché - but prevention is the best medicine," said Dr. Lewis. "The earlier we can intervene and provide dental services to these kids, the better it is for the kids, their families and the community." The hope is that teaching healthy habits, instilling the importance of good oral health and addressing dental issues will empower the children of Lake and Mendocino Counties to take control of their own health and avoid costly health issues in the future.
MCHC reaches out to local schools through the Smiles Program each year and provides dental care to children at all three of its health centers. For more information, visit mchcinc.org or call (707) 468-1010.
Max Rusek is currently serving with AmeriCorps Community HealthCorps at the Hillside Health Center in Ukiah, CA. A Wisconsin native, he hopes to attend medical school in the future and has thoroughly enjoyed the time he's spent in Mendocino County this year.

New Report Outlines the Future of Community Foundations in a Transatlantic Perspective
The Transatlantic Community Foundation Network (TCFN), a project of the Germany-based Bertelsmann Stiftung with support from the U.S.-based Charles Stewart Mott Foundation, has released a new report outlining the major trends that will affect the work of community foundations outside the United States. "The Future of Community Foundations. A Transatlantic Perspective" describes what challenges community foundations in Canada, Europe and Mexico are facing and how they can be leveraged to advance philanthropy around the globe.
"In a time of accelerating change in our communities and rapid growth in community-based philanthropic organizations, the future of community foundations in the transatlantic region holds great promise," notes TCFN Program Director Peter Walkenhorst. "To achieve their full potential, however, community foundations are well advised to anticipate the key trends that will shape the environment in which they operate, and to develop appropriate strategies for leveraging those trends in support of their work."
The report is a result of the TCFN Academy 2006, held in collaboration with the Stanford Graduate School of Business in Palo Alto, CA. It outlines the dominant themes of the Academy's discussions and includes short analyses of the specific situations in ten countries on both sides of the Atlantic. Key findings will be of interest to a wide audience of practitioners and funders of community-based philanthropy. The report can be downloaded at no cost from the Network's website.
The Transatlantic Community Foundation Network (TCFN) was established in 1999 to promote the development of community foundations on both sides of the Atlantic. It is a learning community comprised of four dozen community foundations and support organizations from 13 countries. The Network has produced a series of free resources targeted to emerging and developing community foundations, available on the Network's website. The TCFN Academy is a virtual think tank focusing on strategic issues that are relevant to the international community foundation movement. It provides a venue for studying important community foundation issues in a transnational, cross-cultural perspective.

Local food pantries are busier than they've ever been, and this never-ending Winter may be to blame.
At the Neighbors' Place in Wausau, they're seeing a 40% increase in people need food from their pantry.
Executive Director Tom Rau says, "You cant help but feel the people that are right on the edge, with the money they bring in and the expenses they have, when we have this kind of cold, they've gotta be paying more to keep their homes warm, and so one of the ways they can save is to come to the pantries."
While the shelves are pretty well stocked now, the fear is they won't stay that way for long. There are 2 easy ways you can help.
Every weekend through March 23rd, the Girl Scouts and Peyton's Promise will be at these Wausau locations from 9am - 6pm, collecting food donations for the pantries.
Sam's Club
Shopko Wausau
IGA in Rib Mountain
IGA in Schofield
You can take part in the Girl Scout cookie "Buy One, Donate One" campaign by buying a box for yourself, then buying another to be donated to food pantries.
Peyton's Promise will also be handing out lists of grocery items the pantries need, so you can buy them inside the store, then drop them off at the table and the organization will donate the items for you.

New foundry: VetteLetters
New Sudtipos font: Hipster Script
New TypeTogether fonts: Adelle Sans, Sirba Greek
New Emtype font: Ciutadella
Typographic Trends: Hipster Type & Lettering
TYPO London: This weekend
Coming soon: Typographic tricks and treats
If other type foundries are like haute cuisine restaurants, Amsterdam-based VetteLetters is the font snack bar. "Vette letters" means "greasy/fat letters", and this foundry has been proclaiming its love for food and fonts since Donald® Roos first cooked up the business in 2007. After a wonderful career as a dishwasher, assistant cook, some kind of designer, then a type designer, Donald® is now co-CEO of VetteLetters. Donald DBXL Beekman, known around the office as "the other Donald", is also co-CEO and produces as many typefaces as Prince makes records. Jacques "Sardines" Le Bailly, also known as the Baron von Fonthausen, Chief Type Tech. Dev. Dept., and Martin "TwoPoints" Lorenz bakes his fonts in the warmer climate of Barcelona.
VLNL Brak
Designed by Donald Beekman
Brak is a surprising all-caps display face constructed solely out of straight lines. It combines sharp corners with round stroke endings. All the letters come in two versions for more variation and flexibility. The design updates influences from Art Deco and De Nieuwe Stijl, transporting them to the contemporary world of clubbing and political activism. The perfect typographic solution for your Occupy Afterparty posters.
VLNL Neue Sardines
Designed by Jacques Le Bailly
Sardines was originally a student project by Jacques Le Bailly, a monospaced font. Neue Sardines is an impressive type family of 42 monospaced fonts in 11 normal and 10 condensed weights, all in smooth and rough finish. The unicase design's mix of lowercase and uppercase letters is more than dynamic; it's practically a carnival. While most VetteLetters typefaces are market-fresh, this one comes out of a can, but it's delicious nonetheless.
VLNL Spaghetti Bolognese
Designed by Donald Roos
Drawn in college in 1999 by Donald® Roos in an effort to create the "most beautiful" alphabet in the world, Spaghetti remained untouched for many years, all but forgotten. More than a decade later it was finally revived in glorious OpenType. The unusual script marries high-contrast, italic shapes with curvy connectors. Subtly bulging terminals automatically begin and end each word, and a tasty suite of ligatures adds typographic sophistication.
Hipster Script
Designed by Alejandro Paul
With Hipster Script, Argentinian script master Alejandro Paul attempts once again to bridge the manual and the digital. He borrows the spontaneity of post-war ad lettering and the contemporary trend of emulated brushstrokes. The design is similar to that of his Feel Script, a digital interpretation of glamorously free-flowing script based on the dramatic copperplate shapes of yesteryear's commercial lettering. Hipster's stroke contrast is more casual than Feel Script's though, and its swashes, alternates, and ligatures capture the subtle interplay between stroke widths in hand-painted letters.
Adelle Sans
Designed by Veronika Burian, José Scaglione
This sans-serif counterpart to the award-winning Adelle type family offers a cleaner, more spirited take on the traditional grotesque sans. As usual with TypeTogether fonts, designers took the most demanding editorial design pieces into consideration when they engineering Adelle Sans. Its lively character and its unobtrusive appearance, inherent to grotesque sans serifs, make it a versatile tool, fit for any imaginable graphic application, whether it is branding, signage or advertising. Without any doubt, the key word behind Adelle Sans' design is flexibility.
Sirba Greek
Designed by Nicolien van der Keur
This low-contrast serif type family with a friendly personality has a contemporary appearance and a classic touch. It was conceived to answer the demands of complex text environments like dictionaries, academic texts, annual reports, novels and magazines. Intensive study of typefaces used in bibles and dictionaries in the era of letterpress printing resulted in a pleasant reading experience and perfect legibility, even in small sizes. Sirba's character set covers over 50 languages that use the Latin script plus polytonic Greek and a full set of IPA symbols.
Designed by Eduardo Manso
Ciutadella was originally commissioned by Mario Eskenazi's studio in Barcelona. Its clean, straightforward, geometric simplicity and "open" personality, reminiscent of the DIN-model, make for a straightforward, versatile typeface. Ciutadella is a match for any occasion where you want to assert your pragmatism, from identity systems to publication design. Although it was originally conceived as a display face, it performs well in medium-length copy thanks to specific features like an alternate two-story 'a'.
Hipster design seeks to predate itself, reintroducing elements from simpler times and arranging them into marks and compositions that have a certain matter-of-fact-ness about them.
To hipster-fy a brand, apply design elements generally, or, even better, inconsistently. Be pithy, and set page elements at intersecting right angles around a central mark. Here's an example of the kind of work that signifies the hipster design movement.
Photo by David Sudweeks
This well restored sign hangs on Howard Street in San Francisco. It's clear. Hand-rendered in a strong, all-caps sans serif alphabet (to borrow a sign painter's term) with complementing commercial script, the piece has generous margins and a defined visual hierarchy. The letterforms' proportions and spacing aren't perfect, but the sign's imperfection is one of its greatest assets. What I see in the larger hipster design and branding movement is a call to appreciate the flexibility and inconsistency of our graphic-design past.
When in 1952 The Dahl-Beck Electric Company folks needed a sign for their new location, they didn't approach a graphic design firm. They went to a sign shop. When they needed letterhead or business cards printed, they went to a printer. Did the marks match? No. Was that a problem? Good question. Practitioners of hipster design would argue no. When a company's design consistency is a lesser priority, that means other things take higher priority, like showing up to the job site on time, performing reliable service, creating a great product, etc. There was likely little discussion of "visual concept" with any of these pieces. The execution was the concept.
So, in an attempt to appear established, perhaps winking at the irony created by the freshness of their look, small businesses today sign off on the work of graphic designers whose aim is to present them as having existed before design as we know it.
Come be Social in the UK this weekend with incredible speakers like Paula Scher, Simon Manchipp, Joshua Davis and Irma Boom. Join design industry leaders, professionals and students for TYPO London Social. The event will again take place at Logan Hall at the University of London's Institute of Education Oct. 19-20. Full schedule, livestream schedule, and advance registration at typotalks.com/london.

New Fires Erupt In Yellowstone
Yellowstone National Park reported two new fire starts in the park's back country yesterday – believed to be the results of recent lightning strikes. The Alum Fire is several miles west of Mud Volcano near Mary Lake while the Alder Fire is located on The Promontory at the south end of Yellowstone Lake. Park officials say neither fire poses a threat or impact to visitors and each of the fires involves less than an acre. Meanwhile, the Druid Fire spotted Friday on Druid Peak above the Lamar Valley continues to burn on three acres as a managed fire, and the Snake Fire continues to burn on the Yellowstone/Bridger Teton National Forest boundary as a managed fire. It currently involves about 200 acres of heavy dead and down timber. Yellowstone officials raised the fire danger rating in the park yesterday to "very high," but no restrictions have been put into place as yet.

Week 3 Nutrition: Be Pro-Produce
Vegetables should be the star of your meals with guest appearances from fruit a close second. Stephanie Middlebergs tips will help you veg out even more effectively.
Going meatless
Middleberg recommends going vegetarian at least two nights a week, "Meat is not bad by any means, but we are frequently consuming oversized portions. Metabolism likes change, and foregoing meat will force you to be more creative with vegetables." Nevertheless, this doesnt mean losing the vital protein part of your meal. Try subbing in these non-meat protein sources for a delicious and filling dinner: beans (especially chickpeas), lentils, edamame, tofu, nuts and seeds (try hemp hearts), eggs, yogurt, quinoa, and popular vegetarian proteins such as seiten, tempeh, or nutrition yeast, which is big with vegans.

Why is my skylight leaking?
Updated On: Oct 15 2012 02:25:55 PM EDT
A skylight is designed to fill your home with sun, but certainly not the rain. A skylight can be a beautiful addition to any home. Some people get depressed without sunlight and, for those who fit that description; a skylight can help to make the home bright and cheery. Unfortunately, nothing is perfect and even skylights can develop structural problems. But, don't fret - there are ways to get more sunlight, and less rainfall, beaming back into your home. If you need to find out why a skylight is leaking, there are various reasons. Your skylight may not be completely closed or the weather seals may be damaged. Leaks often occur with skylights that are located in very high ceilings, which can cause difficulties in confirming whether the skylight is completely closed. Always remember to make sure the skylight is completely closed before deciding that the rain is coming from a more serious situation, such as a leak.
Reasons why your skylight maybe leaking
Homeowners who live in North Florida know that harsh weather, such as hurricanes, tornadoes, hail and heavy winds may cause leaky skylights for reasons that are obvious. Even debris hitting the skylight can cause damage and should be of major concern to you.
A leak may also be caused by faulty skylight installation, damaged caulking, and damaged flashing near the skylight, leaks from other parts of the home, faulty or damaged roof shingles or even improper repairs. If a leak starts from another part of the roof, it may make its way to the skylight and find an opening into your home. If there are no obvious signs of skylight damage, consider the possibility that the problem is actually located at another part of the roof. Check for any signs of damage or change. If something doesn't look right, check it out. Anything that could damage any part of the roof, including debris, heavy rain or other mishaps, could be what's causing your problem.
Call In the Professionals
Any kind of leak, including one from your skylight, is a major problem and requires immediate attention. Not only can a continued leak cause damage to the structure of the roof, but excessive water can ruin the contents of your home. A roofing professional will be able to explain why a skylight is leaking and also help with its repair. Working on a roof, especially when wet, can be very dangerous. So, leave it to the professionals to inspect for damage. The same goes for the actual repairs and is always best to leave those to a professional roofing contractor.

President George Bush's State of the Union addresses from early in his presidency shed some very interesting light on the current situation. He promised to be a "compassionate conservative." What happened?
In Jan. 2001, our national debt was $5.9 trillion and will now rise to $10.3 trillion by the end of 2008, a record 70 percent increase for a president. In his 2001 State of the Union address, President Bush said, "My budget plan pays down an unprecedented amount of our national debt." The 2002 budget said there would be a $5.6 trillion surplus over the next 10 years. Tax cuts were supposed to improve the economy and lead to surpluses. We now collectively owe $120,000 per tax-paying family.
