- Simply lovely!dragonflwr88Dined on 11/22/2014Wonderful French bistro food! Perfectly cooked duck breast and lamb chops. Service was also welcoming and attentive. Simply divine.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Perfect for a wine country weekendKellyMDined on 11/21/2014A weekend wine tasting always calls for a delicious dinner. Walter Hansel Bistro was definitely that. My French boyfriend said it was one of the best boeuf bourguignons he has ever had. The lobster bisque was incredible, as was everything really. The staff is super attentive and friendly, and even though it's a pretty high end place there was a refreshing lack of pretention. The ambiance is warm with plenty of French provençal touches. And the amuse bouche and extra little touches here and there are the icing on the cake. It was easy to get a table here now, but I am betting it doesn't stay that way for long!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Fabulous find!AnnaVIPDined on 11/20/2014We traveled to Sonoma from Atlanta for a long weekend and were careful to pack in only the highest quality dining and wine tastings. We love Walter Hansel wines and heard that this bistro was good. This is in a quaint small setting which along with the attentive and knowledgable waitstaff resulted in the perfect Friday night dinner birthday celebration. The menu was filled with interesting items and everything we ordered was fabulous! The French country fare was authentic and delicious. If we lived nearby we would definitely make this a regular place!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Always great.OpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 11/19/2014We're never disappointed when we dine here. The food is wonderful, it's cozy and quaint and the service is exceptional. I'd venture to say that this is the best restaurant in Santa Rosa. Love it.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delightful experience and wonderful evening.DianeVIPDined on 11/14/2014This was our first time eating here after new ownership. This turly is like a French bistro. The decoartions, lighting, table placement, the service, the wait staff were all excellent. Each person greeted us warmly, fully explained the menu, were generous about requested changes and specifics. The flavors were delicately blended for each dish and the food presentation was beautiful. The wine special was delicious. As the room was filled, the noise level became a little intense. The whole restaurant is small in scale.The pricing was moderate to expensive, but appropriate. They only serve dinner, and have no facility for outdoor dining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bistro in the vineyardsOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 11/14/2014We celebrated a belated wedding anniversary here and it was our first time at Hansels. Although the wood paneling and packed dining area can make the noise level a bit much, overall its the great preperation and delightful service that will have us come back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful food, but quite pricey.SusanDined on 11/14/2014A group of six of us, celebrating a birthday, went for dinner. Pleasantly surprised to find a new place relatively close to home. I'd definitely return but probably only for very special occasions. A little pricey for my budget ahd others with me. But still want to emphasize how wonderful the food was, especially the rack of lamb. The dinner plate could have had a larger vegetable portion. The attention by staff was superb even though the restaurant was crowded. A nice touch that the owner came by and introduced himself. GSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Wonderful Food at a Wine BistrordegoliaVIPDined on 11/8/2014Walter Hansel Bistro's food was really surprising. It was terrific. I expected good wine at reasonable prices and an opportunity to taste through the Walter Hansel offerings. I was surprised to find an excellent and varied wine list, but I was really surprised to find terrific food. We were even welcomed, after we were into our meal, by Stephen Hansel, the owner of the Bistro and Winery. An overall delightful experience. We will return.Special Features:
- Exquisite FoodVivbabyDined on 11/8/2014Food was delicious, service was spectacular, ambiance was warm and inviting. We had the special of beef burgundy and the hanger steak. Both were fantastic, as were the simple but delicious bib salad and the squash soup. We ended the meal with outstanding creme brulee. And, they top the meal off with a complimentary dessert wine. Lovely! We will be going again to try the duck breast.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- For the price you can do better.mnksrDined on 11/7/2014Very quaint older restaurant, tables are close together and noise level is quite high. Wait staff is very attentive. Special steak dinner was not so special, seafood dishes were served luke warm. Food is mediocre, hard to talk with others in your party. Wine is very good.
- Walter Hansel Makes the GrademarshajDined on 11/2/2014We first visited this restaurant right after it opened. It was suffering from the usual issues of a new place. It certainly has improved. Menu was large and varied, food was delicious and hot when served. Enjoyed the lobster bisque especially. Meal in itself. Nice touches with a treat from the chef to start and choice of after dinner night caps. Both gratis. My husband loved the beef stew and our companions had the muscles and fresh fish on the 3,course prix fixed menu. Worth the drive in Sonoma County.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- All was very good except...MicheleDined on 10/31/2014My husband was the only one who ordered coffee. He always has a double espresso, but he said this time it was awful. Our dessert, floating island, was excellent, and the boeuf bourguignon delicious. We'll be back!Special Features:
- ScottE-SallyEScottESallyEDined on 10/31/2014This small bistro in the countryside west of Santa Rosa, a remodeled longtime roadhouse near Somoma County's vineyards, has been open a year. Responding to glowing reviews, we had dinner there last weekend. It was busy and for good reason. The atmosphere is charming and understated, the menu French but accessible, the wine wine extensive, the service friendly and knowledgable, the food spectacular. We had lobster bisque, beef bourguignon and a marvelous dessert accompanied by Hansel's own reasonably priced pinot noir. We'll be back often and soon.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- a special occasion indeedJohnHVIPDined on 10/24/2014went there for my birthday and had an awesome time. everyone in my party was treated like royalty and the food was excellent.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Surprise SurpriseZoeldarDined on 10/9/2014We visited the Bistro on our anniversary, and were thoroughly pleased with all of the food and drink. Talented chef here...Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food loud, crowded roomRedpleaseDined on 10/3/2014The food here is great, Duck, scallops, unique Gaspachio all cooked with artistry and style. The prices are a little high for what you get but the service with the amuse bouch and complementary after dinner drink makes up for that.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- NASCAR momentsEEEEVIPDined on 10/2/2014The food and service were fine but the state highway that runs directly adjacent to the bistro was about 20 feet from our table. With the window open we were treated to traffic whooshing by at 55+ mph..... unless the traffic light changed. Throughout dinner I was concerned about motorists more focused on texting than driving while speeding by!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Like a charming European bistro.FoodForThoughtDined on 9/28/2014Attentive service, comfortable setting, small but excellent food & wine selection, very good value. Had an early seating & was greeted by the owner himself. Really made to feel welcome & appreciated by the staff. A neighborhood high school student provided the evening's entertainment with a couple of short opera numbers - unexpectedly delightful. Lighting's not great; would have liked a small candle on the table (my only criticism). Will be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Not worth the tripNGM1022Dined on 9/25/2014While the ambiance and service were good at Walter Hansel Bistro, we were less than thrilled with the food. We ordered a special appetizer of chanterelle mushrooms and fingerling potatoes. Sounded interesting but when the warm appetizer arrived, all we could taste was butter. There was no hint of mushroom flavor anywhere in this dish. Perhaps that was intended... We then ordered a seafood platter and chicken breast for entrees. The seafood plate was good; steamed shellfish sitting on a bed of ice. But the chicken entree, described as "mousseline stuffed chicken breast" had no flavor. The predominant taste of the entire plate, green beans and mashed potatoes included, was BUTTER!! Will not be returning.Special Features:
- OpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 9/20/2014Bravo Walter Hansel! What a great addition to Sonoma County. The food was superb, well-priced and the little extra touches made it especially nice. The duck confit salad was fantastic. So were the frites. Only regret....wish they were open for lunch.Special Features:
- Food - fantastic; forgot us earlyGaryDined on 9/19/2014Once we got past a little mix up with our table the rest of the evening was great. Really think they have improved the vibe over the old ZaZu which occupied the location previously. The food was delicious. the wines were reasonably priced, especially the pinots from Hansel. the waitress brought us a tasting of each so we could make a decision since we had not previously tried Hansel wines.Special Features:
- Memorable Anniversay DinnerOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 9/17/2014excellent food, wine and service. We will be back oftenSpecial Features:
- A nice transitionJohnHVIPDined on 9/17/2014housed in the former Zazu building, this little bistro does an excellent job of wine-country dining. Althought the vegetarian menu selections are scant, the kitchen has always been very accommodating in preparing seasonal, local vegetarian dishes.Special Features:
- Fabulous foodmyvueDined on 9/14/2014Once again we brought guests here and as usual it went beyond their expectations. The food was delicious, the presentation gorgeous, great service. It is good for special occasions and any time you want a great meal and to feel pampered. We're fortunate to live nearby, so we can enjoy it often.Special Features:

- Dining at Walter Hansel's BistrosebastopolfoodieDined on 9/6/2014The four of us enjoyed our dinner at Walter Hansel's Bistro. The WH Pinot Noir is very good and the appearance of the meals was delightful. We especially enjoyed the desserts and the perfect finish, a glass of sauterne or port, rounded off the meal very well indeed.Special Features:
- Will come againLeonDined on 9/6/2014The food was a bigger hit the first time we were there….so will definitely try again.Special Features:
- Great place for our anniversaryOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 9/4/2014We went on Sept 4, 2014 to celebrate our 16th anniversary. Overall we had a lovely time. Friendly service and pretty good food. For starters our party of 4 had the Salmon Rillette, Gazpacho, Oyster Cebiche, and Warm Oyster Shigouku. All were tasty and interesting. The Oyster dishes each came with 5 Oysters. The Warm Oyster dish edged out the Cebiche as our favorite of the two. In the Cebiche the citrus overwhelmed the taste of the Oyster but was overall still a successful dish. The Gazpacho preparation was quite remarkable and different. This was the favorite starter among the 4 of us. It came with two scallops on the side and they were cooked to perfection. The Salmon Rillette was extremely flavorful as well, but a bit too salty. The serving size was also quite large. For entrees 3 of our party ordered the Halibut and I ordered the Duck Breast. The duck was cooked sou vide and then finished (I believe under a salamander). The duck was flavorful but I was disappointed that the skin didn't crisp up as the waitress said it would. The Tromboncino squash puree, compressed Frog Hollow Farm peach, fingerling potatoes, hibiscus gastrique, Chanterelle mushrooms that came with the duck were outstanding. The Halibut dish was unexpectedly very rich, with the Gratin Savoyard, Bloomsdale spinach, crispy onion ring, and "beurre blanc". One of the Halibut was slightly overcooked but not enough to send back. All three diners reported that the Halibut was also a successful dish. For dessert, we had the Valrhona Chocolate Mousse. It was a nice rich dark chocolate and paired nicely with the complementary dessert wine. We will be back in the future to try some of their other dishes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good RestaurantMyntjuliusDined on 9/4/2014The Hansel Bistro has a nice atmosphere that remains unchanged from previous incarnations. The chef creates delightful flavors, but presentations could be improved upon to make the dining experience more pleasurable. The complimentary "amuses" are a nice touch, and prices are moderate for an upscale experience. Would not hesitate to return.Special Features:

I had the special, the butter lettuce was as refreshing as I make it at home, my salmon was cooked to perfection and the strawberry dessert was A-1. My husband and our guest started with Oysters on half shelf, soooo good that my husband ordered a 2nd plate & shared it. I am not sure what they ordered for the mains, but whatever it was they had smiles.Special Features:

- Fine DiningDandGDined on 8/29/2014We had Dinner here at WHWB on Friday night and enjoyed two of the Special Dinners (Salmon and Rack of Lamb). Both were very tasty and well prepared. They use the SousVide cooking method which we have cooked with ourselves and found it to be very good method. The finishing of the dish after the SousVide cooking was very nicely done in both cases and nicely presented on the plates. Salad and Dessert were excellent. Had a bottle of the WH Pinot which was very nice also.Special Features:

- Excellent all around!Intrepid828VIPDined on 8/17/2014The staff bent over backwards to accommodate our change in reservation despite a full dining room. While we waited at the bar, owner Steve Hansel poured our group some wine (on the house) and made us feel very welcome. I highly recommend the halibut and lamb...generous portions with lots of flavor. Large by the glass selection of Walter Hansel wines. I will definitely be back to this neighborhood gem! Thanks Team Walter Hansel!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Really EnjoyedmosseeVIPDined on 8/16/2014For a birthday dinner we arrived a little early. We had a reservation but clearly Saturday night was a busy time with, I guess, a good deal of walk-ins. Despite being early we were directed to the bar and offered a complimentary drink as we waited for our table. That is a first for me and set off an evening of good service. the food was delicious, fresh local ingredients and a superb wine list all at reasonable prices. A return is definitely on the cards.Special Features:

The Coolest Schools and How Green Teams Can BenefitAugust 20, 2014
For eight years, "Sierra", the magazine of the Sierra Club, has published annual rankings of the greenest colleges and universities in the US. The 2014 list is out. Congratulations to the Top Ten coolest schools and to all 173 who participated in the extensive survey and evaluation. GreenWorksGov has penned several columns inviting green teams to take advantage of the academic resources available in your communities to network with the environmental departments in local colleges and to learn about the terrific projects students have engaged in to green their campuses. This is an opportune occasion to spotlight what is working and trending around the country.
Here is just a smattering of what the Top Ten have accomplished: Number One this year, the University of California at Irvine met its 20% energy reduction goal seven years early by installing a cogeneration facility and solar panels. Its water recycling program saves over 200 million gallons a year. At Dickinson College in Carlise, Pennsylvania students grow produce served in the cafeteria and the school builds to LEED Gold standards and harnesses rain run-off. The University of Connecticut, last year's Number One, earns kudos for its major water conservation efforts and an Environmental Literacy Workgroup that develops new classes, hosts forums, and fosters green careers. The Arbor Day Foundation named it a Tree Campus USA. The University of South Florida is all about energy, boasting the largest solar charging station for electric vehicles in the US and programs where students research fuel cell and solar technologies and work on developing smart grids. Loyola University of Chicago students tend to a hundred acres of wilderness, the school offers five environmental degrees, hosts the largest geothermal facility in Chicago, and scores big points for its recycling and composting programs.
In addition to the wealth of information available from community colleges and universities, and good fortune for those working near any of those which qualified for Sierra's rankings, green teams and administrative support units seeking student interns and part-timers to help implement sustainable business practices or raise awareness and interest in environmental issues need look no farther than to an environmental studies department or eco-student group. And studies and surveys show that college graduates enter the workforce with an understanding of environmental issues and solutions and an expectation that their employer shares environmental protection values as well. The signs are clear that employers who have incorporated those principles into their business practices have an edge in recruitment and retention of this new workforce. GWG wrote previously about this compelling trend.
What the Biggest Energy User in the US is Doing About ItAugust 6, 2014
In 2010, the combined Department of Defense (DoD) consumed 5 billion gallons of fuel and in 2013 spent $91 billion on fuel and electricity for the armed forces. DoD is the nation's largest single user of energy. If you think about it, we taxpayers have a strong vested interest in what the Defense department does to conserve energy and reduce expenditures, apart from the primary mission of the military. Actually, it isn't apart from the mission at all. DoD rightly considers energy as a mission-essential resource.
In an earlier column, GreenWorksGov kicked off this series on DoD and energy strategies and provided some examples of how innovations in equipment are lightening the load and lighting the way. In April, DoD issued a sweeping "Energy Policy" that embodied basic principles in practice, but the directive provides a common framework to guide the DoD into the future. The key strategies are to reduce the demand for energy, to expand and secure the supply of energy, and to build energy security into the future force.
Here's what the Directive states: "It is DoD policy to enhance military capability, improve energy security, and mitigate costs in its use and management of energy. To these ends, DoD will:
Improving energy performance includes installations, such as the Washington Navy Yard's Visitor Center, which is a certified "net-zero" building. Net-zero means the building produces as much or more energy than it consumes on an annual bases. The visitor center energy innovations include the use of geothermal and micro-wind turbines, along with LED lighting and cellulose insulation. Read more here about what the Naval District Washington (NDW) is doing to reduce energy consumption and expand the use of alternative fuels and renewable energy sources.
DoD intends that by implementing strategic energy policies it will achieve an improved military force and capacity while meeting 21st century energy challenges and national goals. Green teams can take a lesson from DoD's focus and alignment of objectives to its goals. Top level support, clearly stated goals and measurable objectives, and visible efforts are crucial ingredients for success.
Stick with us, GWG will reconnoiter with the DoD in the near future again.
What's In Your In-Box?July 30, 2014
While idly browsing my in-box this past week trolling for topics to write about, it occurred to me that my in-box might be a good topic. Sustainability officers and green teams enhance their expertise and can add to their tool kit of ideas and strategies by staying abreast of green efforts underway elsewhere. I subscribe to a variety of bulletins and groups that publish news and information. This week's column is just a sampling of some of them, and there are many more organizations listed in our Resources section. Most offer email subscriptions, Facebook, Twitter, RSS feeds and other ways to stay connected.
Here's what was in my mailbox in the past week or two.
The Environmental Working Group (EWG): http://www.ewg.org/
The EWG issues frequent reports and news aimed to protect and promote healthier living and covers consumer products, energy, farming, water, and toxics. GWG features EWG's annual sunscreen guide among other issues.
The American Council for an Energy Efficient Economy (ACEEE): http://aceee.org/blog
ACEEE aims to act as a catalyst to advance energy efficiency policies, programs, technologies, investments, and behaviors. One solid resource about energy, and there are many others. This is their blog link.
The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA): http://www.nasa.gov/press/2014/july/reporters-invited-to-nasa-hurricane-airborne-mission-media-day-at-wallops/#.U9xVpNuF-Zo
This is NASA's news feed. What can we say? We've grown up with NASA and witnessed its evolution. Today it researches and provides invaluable information about our planet and our universe from hundreds of satellites around the globe and is a key contributor to knowledge about climate change and weather systems and much more.
The Environmental Protection Agency (EPA): http://www.epa.gov/gogreen
The EPA has a number of blogs and reports you can subscribe to. This is their monthly "News You Can Use" and delivers information you can apply in the office and at home. There are always links to the vast resources of the EPA.
The Rocky Mountain Institute (RMI): http://blog.rmi.org/blog_2014_07_31_Spark2014_26
The RMI is one of my favorite sources for all things energy. GWG did a lengthy series this past year on Amory Lovins' book, "Reinventing Fire: Bold Business Solutions for the New Energy Era." RMI charts a course for a future beyond fossil fuels.
The National Wildlife Federation (NWF): http://online.nwf.org/site/MessageViewer?dlv_id=161466&em_id=155002.0
The NWF is all about conservation and protecting our wildlife and natural resources. They are a vital link to learning about the impact of climate change and other forces on wildlife and wild places and safeguarding them for future generations.
There are many, many great resources that come in the form of email bulletins, blogs, tweets, newsletters, and more. These are just a few of the ones I receive and it is not possible to read them all, all the time. Still, subscribe to a variety of governmental, non-profit, and private news and info sources and you're sure to find something you can share with your co-workers and some good ideas to develop for your green programs.
What's on Your Plate and How Far Did It Travel to Get There?July 23, 2014
Earlier this month, we published a blog about the water that is consumed in the production of food. This is the promised follow-up that focuses on the transportation of food and the sharp increase in miles that our produce and food products travel to get to market and to our kitchen table.
The Center for Environmental Education (CEE), an international clearinghouse and resource group that has been around for over twenty-five years, started our trek across the continental US and beyond to follow the path of moving food to the grocery store. This is a good starting point for understanding the concept of "food miles" and the role it plays in contributing to the problem of greenhouse gas emissions from the various modes of transportation that are used to transport fresh and processed foods, including frozen food and even organic food.
The CEE site linked up with the National Sustainable Agriculture Information Service (ATTRA), a program that operates under an agreement with the US Department of Agriculture and provides information and assistance on sustainable agriculture. That site has a wealth of information. It summarizes studies and produces reports on various aspects of food production and its relationship to greenhouse gas emissions. For example, I was surprised to learn that processed food travels an average 1,300 miles to get to market. Organic food products can travel even farther, and one study of the Chicago market showed that fresh produce traveled 1500 miles. The miles traveled have increased steadily in the past fifty years.
Why has this happened? To a large extent, it's a matter of consumer expectations for consistent produce year round and exotic ingredients. Also, as corporate farming has overtaken small farms, the suppliers for food have declined and producers can deliver their products across the country. Also, Americans have shown an increased attraction to packaged foods and frozen foods, making meal preparation easier and faster. ATTRA published a report, "Food Miles: Background and Marketing", which makes for fascinating reading on the complexities of the shifts in our food system, eating habits, and the impact of food miles. Transportation is one of the two biggest sources of greenhouse gas emissions, but interestingly, personal transportation takes a second to the average American's annual amount of energy used in the consumption of food. Alas, without change, the energy needed for our food system is insatiable.
This is a complex subject and the studies challenge some of our conventional thinking. So GWG will continue this next week when we discuss what is being done and how consumer choices can make a difference.
Why does it matter to green teams? The Department of Energy's mantra that employees bring their green to work is one good reason. Green teams play a vital role in disseminating information on a wide array of topics outside the walls of typical operational matters related to building energy consumption, recycling, office paper, and procurement, etc. By expanding the sphere of green topics, we connect with people where it matters and that can produce results in the office by generating a wider appreciation for the effect each of us can have in reducing our carbon footprint, enjoying a healthier and longer life, and ensuring a future for our children where they have the blessings of a stable and supportive environment.
Catch Some Rays--Yes, Sir!!July 16, 2014
In the course of many years in government service, one thing I've learned is that if you want to know where innovation and technology are working to solve problems, it's a good idea to check out the Department of Defense and the branches of the military. Need some encouragement that your green team is on the right path? Looking for advances that will spur your green building solar panels? Want some ammo to push for alternative energy fuels and vehicles to boost energy savings and conservation? Look no farther—this week we start a series on the many, many projects that the branches of our armed services have undertaken.
This week's blog is but a brief introduction to future articles that will link you to some exciting efforts that are yielding results. We know from our own experiences that sustainability programs need top level commitment and resources to ensure success. The Department of Defense has made a strong commitment to address the implications of a changing global environment and secure an energy future that reduces demand and increases alternative and renewable supplies of energy.
Think gear and equipment for starters. This year's annual Marine Corp event that invites industry to address capability gaps showcased boots, knee braces, and rucksacks that generate electricity and when combined produce impressive amounts of power and reduce battery load.
The Navy, which has already tested bio-fuels for its fleet in 2012, plans for third-generation biofuels to comprise 50% of the fuel used by deploying ships and aircraft throughout the fleet in 2016 and by 2020 50% of all shore-based energy produced will be from alternative sources. Energy factors will be mandatory considerations in all acquisitions for systems and buildings. Navy families are being encouraged in energy conservation practices through incentives for conservation and awareness programs.
Get a jump start on what's to come from GreenWorksGov on the military's impressive and aggressive efforts to transform the way the Department of Defense uses energy in military operations to meet 21st century challenges.

What is the R.C.I.A.? More than you thought!
Do you know anybody who is attracted to Catholicism or has been seeking answers to the restlessness in their heart, grappling with the most important questions like, "why am I here?" and "what is the purpose of my life?" Are you a non-Catholic spouse or friend of a Catholic and have ever considered becoming Catholic? Were you baptized or received First Holy Communion but never Confirmed? The R.C.I.A. (Rite of Christian Initiation of Adults) addresses the most fundamental questions that arise from the human experience while providing an introduction to the Catholic faith for persons inquiring about or desiring to become Catholic. The course may also serve as instruction and formation in the faith for adult Catholics who lack any of the sacraments. The course is less about doctrine or catechism and more about learning to grow in friendship with Christ through reading of Sacred Scripture, participation in the Mass as a personal encounter with Christ, and a shared journey within the community of the Church. Sessions take place Wednesday evenings at the Parish Center from 7:30 to 9 pm beginning in September and extending through the Easter season. Questions or inquiries can be directed to Fr. Forlano at 215.855.3133 or at firstname.lastname@example.com.
If any of your family members or friends have left the practice of their Catholic faith, suggest they check out www.catholicscomehome.org. It's a painless way to evangelize – and an effective way for those who have left the Church to rethink their decision. St. Stanislaus has a "Landings" program for those who want to investigate returning. Please call 215.855.3133 to learn about sessions that are held in the comfortable non-threatening setting of parishioners' homes.
Parish Reading Room
The Reading Room is located on the chapel level just outside the chapel, above the Katharine Drexel Chapel. There is a wide selection of materials – books, videos and DVD's. Topics include Spirituality, Prayer, Scripture, Women's Topics, biographies, children's and many more. The Reading Room will be open after daily and Sunday Mass only. Come on Sunday after Mass and take home some Catholic reading or viewing material to make this Lent a more spiritual time. Click here for a listing of reading materials available in the library.

I think this book has something for everyone, whether you're a new runner or seasoned marathoner.
This is a book much like "Tuesday's With Morrie" that I will refer back to from time to time to put life - and running - in perspective.
Amby shared thoughts and philosophies that made me laugh, put the book down to do my own reflection and even brought me to tears.
too simplistic. but maybe I was expecting something the book is not designed to deliver.

Solana Beach man forever grateful for organ donation
By Claire Harlin
He was in his mid-40s, a father of two, a good friend, a wonderful father and husband. That's almost all Bob Moldenhauer knows about the man who once breathed through the same lungs that he now does. That, and the fact that the man had a loving wife who made a crucial decision during her last moments with him that in turn saved Moldenhauer's life and maybe the lives of others.
"One donor can save upward of eight people's lives," said Moldenhauer, a longtime Solana Beach resident who underwent his double lung transplant in 2009 after living for more than 11 years with pulmonary fibrosis. "It's difficult for me to talk about my donor's family without tearing up out of sadness for their loss and gratitude for the gift that they gave me. Despite their tragedy and sorrow, they still have this generosity in spirit to think of others in need."
While it's not easy for Moldenhauer to talk about his transplant experience and what he and his family have gone through during his nearly 15-year struggle, he shares his story out of hope that he will urge people to become organ donors.
There are more than 110,000 people in the country (and about 20,000 in California) who are approved and waiting for a lifesaving organ transplant. In San Diego alone there are about 1,500 people on the list, according to Donate Life San Diego. However, only 30 percent of Californians are registered to be organ donors, and only a fraction of those organs will be life-saving because so many are determined unsuitable for transplant at the time of need due to the injury or illness that resulted in the donor's death. Organs must also be transplanted very soon after the donor dies, giving rise to time and geographic limitations.
Moldenhauer vividly remembers when he got the call around 5:30 p.m. on June 29, 2009 informing him that there was a pair of lungs that might be a match. He waited in the emergency room for three and a half tedious hours before being told it was a go.
Only three days prior, he had closed down his Solana Beach law practice of more than 30 years.
"I knew I was dying," he said. "I knew I was declining very rapidly. There were the telltale signs that I had only a matter of months to live."
It was about four months prior to that when Moldenhauer reported to his doctor that his mobility had declined and he could only walk about 10 feet at a time.
"Only weeks before I could walk a block, so things were becoming rapid," he said. "My lung capacity had decreased to the point that I could hardly get up out of a chair."
The rapid decline classified Moldenhauer — by way of a point system — as being in great enough need to finally get him on the recipient list he had been waiting to get on for more than a decade.

Fantasy Football Breaking News
Larry Fitzgerald - WR - Arizona Cardinals
Arizona Cardinals WR Larry Fitzgerald's (knee) sprained knee did not respond as hoped before the Week 12 game against the Seattle Seahawks, so he was inactive. He could well miss more games.
Huddle Up: We'll know more about Fitzgerald's status later in the week. John Brown will continue to see more targets if Fitzgerald misses time.
Doug Martin - RB - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Doug Martin (ankle) returned to the lineup in Week 12 against the Chicago Bears. He carried 11 times for 27 yards. He was sidelined for the past three games due to an ankle injury.
Huddle Up: The Buccaneers simply can't run the football this season. Martin has struggled all year and isn't worth starting right now.
Ryan Mallett - QB - Houston Texans
Houston Texans QB Ryan Mallett (pectoral) suffered a pectoral injury in the Week 12 game against the Cincinnati Bengals, and he will go for an MRI. He might miss several games if the test shows a tear. QB Ryan Fitzpatrick is expected to return to a starting role.
Huddle Up: Houston's passing game has been limited this season with both quarterbacks. We should know Mallet's diagnosis on Monday. Fitzpatrick is nothing more than a middle-of-the-road QB2.
Eddie Lacy - RB - Green Bay Packers
Green Bay Packers RB Eddie Lacy (illness) ran 25 times for 125 yards and a touchdown in the Week 12 game against the Minnesota Vikings, and he added two receptions for 13 yards and a score. Lacy left the locker room after the game without speaking to reporters, and the team said Sunday, Nov. 23, that the running back was ill.
Huddle Up: Lacy's illness obviously didn't bother him during the game. He should be fine for next week's showdown with New England. Lacy is locked in as an RB1.
Tim Wright - TE - New England Patriots
New England Patriots TE Tim Wright played a season-high 60 snaps in Week 12 against the Detroit Lions, which shattered his previous best of 21 snaps, which he hit twice. He finished with five receptions for 36 yards and two touchdowns.
Huddle Up: The Patriots are a gameplan specific team, so Wright's increase in snaps might be a one-week scenario. He's worth adding as a second tight end but Wright could go back to playing 15 snaps next week.
LeGarrette Blount - RB - New England Patriots
New England Patriots RB LeGarrette Blount carried 12 times for a team-high 78 yards and two touchdowns in the Week 12 game against the Detroit Lions after re-signing with the team this week.
Huddle Up: Jonas Gray didn't play a snap after arriving late for practice earlier in the week. Blount played mainly late in the game when the Patriots were nursing a lead but still performed well. He should be targeted on the waiver this week.
Josh Gordon - WR - Cleveland Browns
Cleveland Browns WR Josh Gordon posted eight receptions for 120 yards in his regular season debut in Week 12 against the Atlanta Falcons. He was targeted a game-high 16 times in the win.
Huddle Up: Gordon wasn't on a snap count and dominated like he never missed a game. He's a WR1 going forward.
Isaiah Crowell - RB - Cleveland Browns
Cleveland Browns RB Isaiah Crowell carried 12 times for game-high 88 yards and a pair of touchdowns in the Week 12 game against the Atlanta Falcons.
Huddle Up: Crowell and Terrance West are both seeing carries in the Browns backfield but Crowell is the lead dog right now. Crowell is an RB2, while West is more of a flex play...at least for now.
Fred Jackson - RB - Buffalo Bills
Buffalo Bills RB Fred Jackson (groin) is officially listed as questionable for the team's Week 12 game Monday, Nov. 24, but head coach Doug Marrone said he is planning on Jackson playing.
Huddle Up: Jackson is still less less than 100 percent, going up against a tough rush defense and playing on Monday night. He's a risky flex option this week for fantasy owners with Bryce Brown and Anthony Dixon also in the mix for touches.
Doug Martin - RB - Tampa Bay Buccaneers
Tampa Bay Buccaneers RB Doug Martin (ankle) took most of the first-team repetitions in practice Friday, Nov. 21.
Huddle Up: The Bucs running game is a mess right now. Martin has a good matchup against the Bears this week but even if he does get a majority of the touches, he's a dicey flex play at best.
Marcel Reece - RB - Oakland Raiders
Oakland Raiders FB Marcel Reece earned more carries after his performance in Week 12 Thursday, Nov. 20. Reece rushed for 46 yards during a crucial 17-play, 80-yard drive late in the game. Interim head coach Tony Sparano said he could envision using Reece as the primary running back again.
Huddle Up: Reece and Latavius Murray have likely passed struggling veterans Darren McFadden and Maurice Jones-Drew on the depth chart. Murray ran for 112 yards and two scores on just four carries Thursday but suffered a concussion. Reece has performed well in spot starts in the past. He's a solid waiver wire addition next week.
Reggie Bush - RB - Detroit Lions
Detroit Lions RB Reggie Bush (ankle) is likely out for Week 12 and is targeting the Thanksgiving Day game Thursday, Nov. 27, to return.
Huddle Up: Joique Bell will start and is a RB2 this week. Theo Riddick will also see some time as a pass catcher. He'll be an RB3/flex play against the Patriots.
Arian Foster - RB - Houston Texans
Houston Texans RB Arian Foster (groin) is highly unlikely to suit up Sunday, Nov. 23, for Week 12.
Huddle Up: Alfred Blue would make his second straight start against the Bengals if Foster is inactive. Blue will be a RB2 and should see 20+ touches.
Pierre Thomas - RB - New Orleans Saints
New Orleans Saints RB Pierre Thomas (rib, shoulder) was limited in practice Saturday, Nov. 22, and is probable for Monday night's tilt with the Baltimore Ravens.
Huddle Up: Khiry Robinson is out for the game, so Thomas will be the No. 2 back behind Mark Ingram. Ingram will get the majority of snaps but Thomas will see some time on passing downs. He's a flier flex play in deeper PPR leagues this week.
Josh Gordon - WR - Cleveland Browns
Cleveland Browns WR Josh Gordon was officially activated from the exempt/commissioner permission list Saturday, Nov. 22. In a subsequent move, the team waived LB Keith Pough.
Huddle Up: Gordon should obviously be inserted into fantasy lineups this week now that he's been activated. The Browns say they'll monitor his snap count but Gordon will still be on the field enough to make a fantasy impact in his first game back.
Lamar Miller - RB - Miami Dolphins
Miami Dolphins RB Lamar Miller (shoulder, knee) is expected to play in Week 12 unless he suffers a setback prior to the game, according to a source.
Huddle Up: Miller is now dealing with a knee injury but is expected to play on Sunday. However, the Miami/Denver game doesn't kickoff until 4:25 pm ET, so it's not an ideal situation for fantasy owners. Miller will be a RB2 in what should be a high-scoring game if he plays but he's a gamble for owners this week because of the late start. Daniel Thomas and Damien Williams will split touches if Miller is out.
Matthew Stafford - QB - Detroit Lions
Detroit Lions QB Matthew Stafford, who is currently on pace to finish with the fewest passing yards in a single season for his career, has struggled on deep-ball connections, especially in the last two weeks with WR Calvin Johnson returning. Stafford has completed only 14 percent of his passes at least 20 yards downfield to Johnson the last two weeks, and he's thrown an interception on deep targets in each of the pair's four full games together. Stafford is also struggling in the face of pressure this year, with his completion percentage under pressure dropping from 42 percent last year to 34 percent in 2014, his lowest since 2010.
Huddle Up: Stafford was predicted by many to have a huge a season but it's been just the opposite. Despite the addition of Golden Tate and rookie TE Eric Ebron, Stafford has been a fantasy disappointment in 2014. That's not likely to change over the final six weeks.
Jonas Gray - RB - New England Patriots
New England Patriots RB Jonas Gray was late reporting to the team's facility Friday, Nov. 21 and did not practice . He is listed as probable for Week 12.
Huddle Up: Hey Jonas, it doesn't take long to go from the penthouse to the outhouse in New England. Nothing's official as of right now, but don't be shocked to see the RB pop up on the inactive list Sunday, with Shane Vereen or even newly re-signed LeGarrette Blount in a lead role against the Lions.
Lamar Miller - RB - Miami Dolphins
Miami Dolphins RB Lamar Miller (shoulder, knee) was limited in practice Friday, Nov. 21, and is listed as questionable for Week 12 against the Denver Broncos. Miller has been nursing a sore shoulder for the last three weeks, but he also recently suffered a knee injury in practice. RBs Damien Williams and Daniel Thomas will likely share the workload if Miller sits out. RB LaMichael James could also be activated for the first time this year.
Huddle Up: It looks like Miller's owners are facing a dreaded late-afternoon game-time decision Sunday so make plans now.
Charles Clay - TE - Miami Dolphins
Miami Dolphins TE Charles Clay (knee) did not practice Friday, Nov. 21, and he is doubtful for Week 12 against the Denver Broncos. Clay suffered a setback in practice this week, and he's been nursing a sore right knee since training camp. TE Dion Sims would replace Clay in the starting lineup, with TE Gator Hoskins serving as the backup. Sims has caught nine passes for 124 yards and a touchdown this year.
Huddle Up: This is shaping up to be Clay's first missed game of the year, and Sims would be a suitable plug-in if your league waiver-wire is completely picked over.

Artillery Duel was a Side View, Player Versus Player, Turn-Based Strategy Artillery Game, released in 1983 by XONOX as part of their "Double-Ender" series of two-game Atari 2600 and Colecovision cartridges. Artillery Duel does what computers were first designed to do back in World War II: calculate artillery trajectories. It was the first successful example of a genre that goes back to the mid-'70s (and includes later hits like Scorched Earth and Worms).Each player controls an artillery piece, dropped out of the sky into a randomly chosen terrain. Each player has 15 or 30 seconds (depending on the difficulty level) to adjust barrel angle and powder charge, then fire the round. Wind is a factor, rising and falling, or even changing direction. Terrain can get in the way of the shots, forcing the players to use high barrel angles, but sometimes the guns fall within each others' line of sight, giving the players easy shots with low angles and high powder charges.When a player hits the other player's gun, he scores a point, there is a Cutscene of two soldiers marching, and the game moves to a different terrain.

Year In Review: An Oral History Of Wyclef Jean Running For President Of Haiti (Feat. Pras & Sean Penn)
LAURENT DUBOIS (Professor of history, Duke University): There's no doubt that he didn't bring that political experience a lot of the other figures had. But for those that supported him, that was sort of the advantage—that he would be a different kind of figure, a different kind of president.
MARTIN: One of the things that I've constantly said that was important was that people not take their attention off of the country, not take their attention off of what needs to be done to fix the damaged country. I believe on the flipside, that as the suction took place as related to his possible run, that people were focused on those vital issues. To me, that was important. There's no difference between when you have an entertainer in this country who gets involved in a particular issue and they bring awareness to something. That's how you utilize your star power for that purpose. So I don't think for a second that him deciding to run somehow took away from the real issues. What it did was kept people's attention, who otherwise may have stopped thinking about the country and what needs to be done.

Man on skateboard struck, killed by motorcycle
A 23-year-old riding a skateboard in the middle of a Fleming Island street early Saturday morning died after he was struck by a motorcycle, according to the Florida Highway Patrol.
Troopers say Kyle Klocek was on a skateboard in the westbound travel lane of Bald
Eagle Road near Lake Terrance Lane about 1 a.m. when he was struck by a westbound motorcycle ridden by Arthur Zimmerly, of Jacksonville.
Klocek died at the scene.
The motorcycle overturned, throwing Zimmerly onto the road. He was transported to UF Health Jacksonville with life-threatening injuries.
According to the FHP accident report, Bald Eagle Road is not lighted. As part of the investigation, blood-alcohol tests on both Zimmerly and Klocek were conducted and the results are pending.
