Mark 13: 33 - 37
Take heed, watch; for you do not know when the time will come. It is like a man going on a journey, when he leaves home
and puts his servants in charge, each with his work, and commands the doorkeeper to be on the watch. Watch therefore -- for
you do not know when the master of the house will come, in the evening, or at midnight, or at cockcrow, or in the morning
-- lest he come suddenly and find you asleep. And what I say to you I say to all: Watch."
Lord cautions us against falling asleep in our work. We can fall asleep when we become complacent, or comfortable. We must
make sure that we are always listening to the wee small voice of the Spirit calling us to advance the Kingdom in our part
of the vineyard. We must be cautious not to put parish ministries on autopilot or to decide that it is just too much work
to commence new evangelization or catechetical programs.
The Lord has a great plan for us and expectations that when
He returns He will find us working. We work for the Master of the house – in His house. We should watch and work until
He returns!

Mark 10: 17 - 21
And as he was setting out on his journey, a man ran up and knelt before him, and asked him, "Good Teacher, what
must I do to inherit eternal life?" And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good but God alone.
You know the commandments: `Do not kill, Do not commit adultery, Do not steal, Do not bear false witness, Do not defraud,
Honor your father and mother.'" And he said to him, "Teacher, all these I have observed from my youth."
And Jesus looking upon him loved him, and said to him, "You lack one thing; go, sell what you have, and give to the poor,
and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me."
The man in today's Gospel
has been fastidious in following all of the 'rules' in seeking eternal life. It seems that he is particularly
focused on observing the commandments having never violated these in his adult life. But Jesus wants more than rule-followers.
He wants our complete focus. The young man has divided his life – one part of it for God and the other part for accumulation
and enjoyment of his wealth.
In our own lives, and ministries, and parishes we sometimes see a lack of integration.
One part of the ministry is for the Lord while another part is for our agenda, our purpose, our
goals. As pastors, staff, ministry leaders, and parishioners, we must always check with Christ to make sure that we are working
for Him, with Him, and in Him in the unity of the Holy Spirit. Then we can store up treasure in heaven and truly follow Our

Luke 21: 29 - 33
And he told them a parable: "Look at the fig tree, and all the trees; as soon as they come out in leaf, you see
for yourselves and know that the summer is already near. So also, when you see these things taking place, you know that the
kingdom of God is near. Truly, I say to you, this generation will not pass away till all has taken place. Heaven and earth
will pass away, but my words will not pass away. Reflection:God is working through us in our ministry
and our apostolate. We need to pay attention so that we will see the signs of His work. Just as a new leaf appears
as a very small bud - sometimes indistinguishable without focus and examination, just so the fruit of His work through us.Sometimes parish life and ministry can appear to be fruitless and without life. But upon closer reflection (and
with patience) we see the flowering and spark of the Holy Spirit. For those of us suffering in the 'winter-time'
of ministry we pray. Keep hope as the Lord has promised that His words will not pass away.

Luke 17: 11 - 19
On the way to Jerusalem he was passing along between Sama'ria and Galilee. And as he entered a village, he was met
by ten lepers, who stood at a distance and lifted up their voices and said, "Jesus, Master, have mercy on us." When
he saw them he said to them, "Go and show yourselves to the priests." And as they went they were cleansed. Then
one of them, when he saw that he was healed, turned back, praising God with a loud voice; and he fell on his face at Jesus'
feet, giving him thanks. Now he was a Samaritan. Then said Jesus, "Were not ten cleansed? Where are the nine? Was no
one found to return and give praise to God except this foreigner?" And he said to him, "Rise and go your way; your
faith has made you well." Reflection:In today's Gospel, 10 people are healed and only one
gives thanks. 10 were cleansed and given a chance at new life and only one returned to thank Him who had given them
the gift. We recognize this in our own world. People who have been saved by Jesus seem to be oblivious to the
eternal gift they have received.How about us? Are we ready to return to the Lord and fall on our face in
thanks for the blessings we have received? First, we are thankful for the gift of Jesus and the gift of eternal life.
And we should be thankful for our vocation, our ministry, for those put in our lives who we minister to and who minister
to us. For our health and our intelligence and for our family and friends. For the gift of faith and the opportunity
to serve the Lord.This is the day the Lord has made, let us be glad and rejoice!

Luke 21: 12 - 19
But before all this they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons,
and you will be brought before kings and governors for my name's sake. This will be a time for you to bear testimony.
Settle it therefore in your minds, not to meditate beforehand how to answer; for I will give you a mouth and wisdom, which
none of your adversaries will be able to withstand or contradict.
You will be delivered up even by parents and brothers
and kinsmen and friends, and some of you they will put to death; you will be hated by all for my name's sake. But not
a hair of your head will perish. By your endurance you will gain your lives. Reflection:We have
all had a difficult situation before where we realized that they people we were speaking to did not agree with what we were
saying. There is always the temptation to temper our words or to backtrack on the full impact of our message.
In the context of church and church teaching, there can be no equivocation. We must preach and act as the Lord has ordained
us to do.Sometimes the people who strongly oppose us are parishioners, staff members, or ministry leaders.
This is very difficult and causes us to rethink our beliefs. On one hand, this is good as the Holy Spirit may be communicating
to us through these folks. However, if we are teaching in communion with the Magisterium we need to stand strong and
preach the truth: 'In season and out of season'.Pastors have a canonical responsibilty "to preach
the Word of God in its entirety to every person" living within the parish. He has given you a mouth and wisdom
- you must preach the truth.

Luke 21: 5 - 11
And as some spoke of the temple, how it was adorned with noble stones and offerings, he said, "As for these things
which you see, the days will come when there shall not be left here one stone upon another that will not be thrown down."
And they asked him, "Teacher, when will this be, and what will be the sign when this is about to take place?" And
he said, "Take heed that you are not led astray; for many will come in my name, saying, `I am he!' and, `The time
is at hand!' Do not go after them. And when you hear of wars and tumults, do not be terrified; for this must first take
place, but the end will not be at once." Then he said to them, "Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against
kingdom; there will be great earthquakes, and in various places famines and pestilences; and there will be terrors and great
signs from heaven. Reflection:Our Lord warns about the inevitability of conflict in our lives.
"Nation against nation and kingdom against kingdom" will be commonplace. In some of our parishes we see conflict
and even war between parishioners and groups. This is not from Christ - who is the Prince of Peace.In your
role in the parish are you a sign of conflict or peace. As Pastor, do you allow the Holy Spirit to work through parishioners
and staff guiding you to His Will? As an important staff member, do you support the Pastor and his decisions?
As a part of the lay ministry in the parish do you carry out your role in peace without an agenda of your own?Our
parishes should be models of the kingdom on earth. We should live as the early disciples did as described in the Book
of Acts: "They ate their meals with exultation and sincerity of heart, praising God and enjoying favor with all the people.
And every day the Lord added to their number those who were being saved."

Luke 21: 1 - 4
He looked up and saw the rich putting their gifts into the treasury; and he saw a poor widow put in two copper coins.
and he said, "Truly I tell you, this poor widow has put in more than all of them; for they all contributed out of their
abundance, but she out of her poverty put in all the living that she had." Reflection:Many times
we fail to see that our small contributions are sometimes our greatest contributions. When we greet someone who comes
to the parish with a smile and genuine joy, we make them feel welcome and part of the family of Christ. When we take
the time to return all phone calls we help people to feel important. When we don't rush through our tasks with those
visiting the parish we have time to listen to their needs, their fears, and their problems. When we do these small
things then we can be Christ for other people - then we can give of ourselves. We will have given out of our poverty
and we will have given more than ever before!

Preparing for disaster in La Honda
Original post made by Richard Hine, editor of The Almanac, on Feb 20, 2007
On February 17, the La Honda Fire Department graduated nineteen new Community Emergency Response Team (CERT) members.
These members, who were from throughout the South Coast, attended four Saturday classes on disaster preparedness. They received training on emergency medical care, search and rescue, utility control, and other topics that will be needed should a disaster strike.
Over the last three years, 63 residents have completed this training. A disaster preparedness drill involving past and new CERT members will be held in La Honda on March 10.

HOUSTON (AP) - A jury is deliberating the sentence of a man convicted of murder who claimed Texas' version of a stand-your-ground law allowed him to fatally shoot a neighbor in a confrontation about a noisy party.
Raul Rodriguez faces up to life in prison in the 2010 killing of Kelly Danaher.
In closing arguments Wednesday in Houston, Rodriguez's attorneys asked for a five-year sentence. Prosecutors told jurors he deserves the maximum sentence.
In a recording of the incident, Rodriguez tells a dispatcher he fears for his life and is standing his ground.
Defense attorneys say Rodriguez acted in self-defense, but prosecutors say he was the aggressor.
A Florida neighborhood watch volunteer who fatally shot an unarmed black teenager, Trayvon Martin, in February is relying on a stand-your-ground law for his defense.

CAPE CORAL, Fla. - Cape Coral Police are investigating an armored truck robbery.
We're told a Brinks employee was picking up money at the Publix on Cape Coral Parkway at Santa Barbara Sunday afternoon around 4:30.
The employee left the store and was walking towards the armored truck, when a man approached and tasered the employee in the neck.
The employee dropped the coin and cash bags and was temporally stunned. The male suspect grabbed the canvas Brinks bag of money and ran from the scene.
Police think the suspect had a black SUV waiting on the north side of the store and got away that way.

Danny Dyer has said Dame Helen Mirren could be playing his mother in his latest film.
The Hardman actor made his showbiz debut opposite the Oscar-winning actress playing a homeless boy in Prime Suspect 3 almost 20 years ago, and wants to be reunited with her on the big screen.
Danny has signed up to star in new film The Most Dangerous Girl In The World, with Ray Winstone playing his dad.
The project is already a reunion for the two.
He explained: "I worked with him about four years ago in a thing for Channel 4 called All In The Game, he played my dad in it.
"And he's going to be playing my dad again in The Most Dangerous Girl In The World.
"I know Ray's signed up. They're trying to get Helen Mirren to play my mum. What a dream team that would be! I love that woman, love her dearly," he added.

Neck and head injuries from car accidents account for 2 million insurance claims each year. Now a new study is showing just how safe head restraints are in minivans.
Rear impact crashes have been known to cause whiplash. Now the Insurance Institute for Highway Safety says it is preventable--if the minivan has the right headrest.
"Part of the evaluation is to do some measurements to find whether or not the head restraints can be adjusted to be tall enough to cover a wide range of seat occupants, or drivers, and if they fit close to the back of the head," said David Zuby, the Vice President of IIHS.
Those that met the requirements moved on to the dynamic test. A dummy was mounted to a machine that simulates a 20 mile an hour rear end collision. Researchers measured the forces on the dummies neck.
Six minivans: Chevrolet Astro, GMC Safari, Mazda MPV, Nissan Quest, Grand Caravan (some seats), and Toyota Sienna (some seats) failed the test, automatically getting a poor rating.
Only two minivans, the Dodge Grand Caravan (some seats), Chrysler Town and Country (some seats) received an acceptable rating.
The Ford Freestar is the only minivan that got a good rating. Experts said it's because the head restraint is tall enough for most drivers and can support the head and neck during a rear car crash.
"Some manufacturers have adopted active head restraints that as the crash occurs and you sink into the seat the head restraint actually moves up and forward to catch your head earlier in the crash," said Zuby.
Experts said it's a simple and inexpensive solution. All car makers can design proper seats and head restraints.
However, automakers insist their minivans are safe and they meet or exceed government standards.

Trickle-down economics WORKS: SpaceShipTwo is a PRIME EXAMPLE
Government Tied up in Bow
Chances are very good that right now you are using a technology that government developed and then had it all tied up in a bow for commercial use. That technology is Gallium Arsenide. It is in most cell phones and WiFi access points. In the 1980's it was a laboratory curiosity, then the military started to develop it for their needs, funding the development and infrastructure to produce it. They also realized that to keep their costs down the producers needed a commercial market to get volume up and prices down. So in the 1990's, it began to be commercialized and entered the cell phone market. By the 2000's the commercial market led production.

Re: Climate Change = climate speculation
Even if there were not change in sea level, most pacific islanders would be underwater eventually. The technical term for it is isostasy; the tendency of geological formations to find their own level. The Hawaiian islands are currently sinking at a rate of 2mm per year. About the same sea level rise as attributed to global climate change. For the final result, look up the term guyot.
Minty fresh Linux: Olivia hits the virtual shelves
Color me unimpressed
I spent nearly a day faffing around trying to get the wifi working under Mint 14. This was on a Dell laptop with a Broadcom 4311 card. Its a good thing that I remembered a lot of the CLI commands from my HPUX days in the 80's, because I had to spend a lot time in there trying to get things to work.
I was also unimpressed with upgrade instructions for the new distro that started with: "Make a backup of your data and applications": Looks like it will be a while upgrading to a new distro.
Finally, I left the system running overnight downloading software. When I went to check on it in the morning, the system was completely frozen. I had to hold down the power button to reboot.
I had been using Unbuntu, where things just worked, but did not like the Unity interface. Heard good things about Mint, but did not experience them.

Agreed @btrower. The feedback loops in question have kept the planet pretty stable for the last couple of billion years.

This despite some pretty big perturbations from asteroids, super volcanoes, oxygenation, etc. The current increase in carbon dioxide levels should be corrected in due (geological) time.

The sun has been remarkably stable for 4 Billion years. If it had been shooting off life threatening flares, well life would be gone and you wouldn't be here.
Technology is another issue. Another Carrington event would do bad things to our technological society. The human race would probably recover, but it might take a while.

Re: Brassed off
The cartridge has very little metal in it. You have more metal in your zipper, underwire bra, or studded jeans than is in a cartridge. The metal detectors have to be set so these things do not set them off all the time. Otherwise, you would be getting a feel-up from the TSA on a much more regular basis.

The large 4 pin ones. Somehow they were not keyed as well as they could have been. Trying to get them in whilst hanging upside down over a Compaq case was always a problem. They were invisible behind the all the other framework and other cabling. Anyway, power-up was always exciting as it occasionally resulted in popping sounds as the little chips flew off the board when the power connector ended up in the wrong way.

Five so far. Coming across auto accidents in areas where there was no cell coverage. One was a rollover accident where 4 of the 5 passengers were ejected. Resulted in 1 fatality and 3 airlifted to the hospital. The other was a head on collision with 1 fatality and 2 severely injured. In both cases ham radio cut the medical response time by 20-30 minutes. Look up "golden hour" to see how effective that can be.

Re: The 80's joke was "GaAs, the material of the future"
No one is seriously considering using GaAs or InGaAs for processors. SiGe (Silicon Germanium) is the current best hope for very high speed digital devices. It is not too expensive as it is grown on top of standard Si wafers. It has better speed than Si and works pretty well for mixed signal applications.
Re: Gallium arsenide has been talked up for decades now
Huh? MBE - Molecular Beam Epitaxy is used to lay down the active layers on the wafer. AlGaAs or InGaAs or some such. The gates are made using either photolithography or electron beam writing. The e-beam writing is for the short gate lengths. It is a serial process, so it is slow for large numbers of FETs. Photolithography is a parallel process, but starts to have problems below 20nm.

Epic Fail
Unfortunately this report card doesn't go back to the thirty-some years of Apple. Apple managed to cut a couple of zeros off their sales figures by going to the Mac. The Apple II had great market share and had a great support ecosystem of third party software and hardware suppliers around it. By going to the closed Mac design, the Steves forfeited the market to the IBM PC and Microsoft. This has also probably cut a couple of zeros off the share price as well. I was a happy Apple II+ owner; haven't had an Apple since then.

Colorado gubernatorial candidate Tom Tancredo says he's more committed to conservatism than to a particular party.
Tancredo was a Republican congressman from Colorado, but became the American Constitution Party's gubernatorial candidate after saying he didn't think the GOP primary candidates could beat Democrat John Hickenlooper in November.
Dan Maes defeated Scott McInnis in the GOP primary, but Tancredo says he can't support Maes.
Tancredo said in December that third-party candidates split conservative votes and guarantee the re-election of liberals and socialists.
Tancredo said Saturday that he supported McInnis at the time, but that was before McInnis was hit with a plagiarism scandal that Tancredo says made McInnis "unelectable."

WASHINGTON (AP) - Scores on the SAT college entrance exam are largely stagnant for a third year, although African-American students made slight gains
The College Board says average scores in reading, math, and writing were the same in 2012 and 2013.
Students scored an average 496 in reading, down one point from 2011. Average math scores have remained stuck at 514 for three years. The average writing score, 488, was down one point from 2011.
The top score possible on each section is 800. In 2013, 494 people received a perfect score of 2400.
Men, on average, scored better in reading and math, while women did better in writing
African-American students on average scored 431 in reading, 429 in math and 418 in writing. That's slightly higher than the previous two years.

Danielle BF font family
Designed by Danielle Paradis in 2010
John Bomparte in 2010
Bomparte's Fonts
See for yourself and let us introduce you to a selection of Bomparte's Fonts.Black Swan BF
Black Swan BF combines blackletter with elements of Art Nouveau. This attractive and elegant font would look well on a music CD cover, for example.
Capistrano BF
All the letters of the monolinear calligraphic font Capistrano BF are joined together. The many alternative characters ensure that a wide range of diverse effects can be created with this dynamic font.
Danielle BF
Use the calligraphic Danielle BF in contexts in which an informal and popular effect is required. For example, Danielle BF is at home on menus of trendy restaurants, labels for organic products and in publications for children.
Dragonfly BF
The inspiration for the somewhat eccentric Dragonfly BF was provided by fonts created in the early 20th century, such as Windsor™ and Greeting Monotone™.
Hamptons BF
This elegant but somewhat light-hearted sans serif is named for the exclusive region of New York State. Although originally intended to be a headline font, Hamptons BF can also be used to set short texts.
Retroscript BF
This retro font was influenced by a furniture advertisement dating to the 1950s and it embodies the pure style of this era. Although Retroscript BF is a calligraphic font, it works best in uppercase.
Sherbet BF
Thanks to the availability of abundant alternative letters, you can use the forceful and vivacious Sherbet BF to create a wide range of different effects.
SoHo Nights BF
Sensual curves and tapering lines provide this font, named after a New York bar, with a unique look that evokes the concepts of German and French Art Nouveau.
Take Two BF
The movie-like look of this fun font comes across best in the larger font sizes.

Vanessa Hudgens for Candie's: Cute or Crude?by Hilton Hater at . Comments
For the second time in a few months, Vanessa Hudgens is posing in a campaign for Candie's. This time, though, the actress is showing some serious skin while doing so!
She's also demonstrating some questionable ironing habits. Seriously, one false move and Vanessa is looking at severe burns. Don't try this at home, gals...
Hudgens is 22 years old, of course, but are these ads really in great taste, considering her multiple naked photo scandals? The star is mostly clothed in other photos from the campaign, however.
What do you think? These pictures are...
Vanessa that bitch..zac efron is like the best bf package on this earth..five long years can u imagine that?In the end she was a slut still zac forgave her..but once a bitch always a bitch..i won't blame efron..but they looked insanely cute together...its' just bad luck for him..he was the perfect bf.
See how reasonable, intelligent, and open-minded most of you are being about this? The majority of you aren't criticizing her, you're remembering that she's an adult, that she's no longer on disney Channel, and that other celebrities do the same thing. Now remember this the next time you get an irrational urge to criticize Miley Cyrus for showing skin.
LOL Pat but you think she even knows how to iron? Good one!
I have no objection to what she is wearing because she IS of legal age. I do, however; feel badly for what she is ironing. Whatever it is will probably end up with a major burn:)
in my opinion i don't see anything wrong with it like "Luna" said it's her job, not to mention i don't see how it's any different than wearing a bikini in public, yes what she's wearing is underwear but there are bikinis out there that show off alot more than that underwear...so u tell me how is wearing underwear in an ad any different than wearing a bikini in an add or even in public when they both show as much skin???????
I think she should be allowed to do what she wants. She has broken away from disney and she is old enough to make her down decisions. if this is what she wants then I'm here to support her. :)
Why is it that in today's society, in order to promote almost anything, the model must be pretty much naked? Vanessa is a very pretty girl and I'm positive that she would be just as pretty with some more clothes on. It's sad that in order to be considered pretty, sexy or worthy of fame or attention, bare is the way to go...
She modeling underware. You dont call the victoria seceret angels sluts. This is a job, she's a actress. People are so stupid.
it doesnt look bad at all she's not naked and for those of you that are putting the pictures down saying this and that get a life yall with yall looked like her. she's a grown woman she can do what she wants to do noone is asking yall to look at the pictures yall choose too.
She looks stunning. and to the girl that said she looks like a slut, shut your mouth, becuase Vanessa looks amazing!

Kindergartners around the Massapequa School District showcased their counting skills with a host of activities that marked the 100th day of school.
Students at East Lake Elementary School found their "inner divas" by designing original 100th-Day T-shirts and modeling them down a red carpet, while students at Birch Lane and Lockhart elementary schools quickly "aged" by dressing as centenarians.
McKenna Elementary School students measured and colored a snake 100 inches long and followed 100 paper hearts to the principal's office where they received a surprise, while Fairfield Elementary School students drew 10 dots on paper ladybugs and counted by tens to 100. At Unqua Elementary School, they made necklaces with 100 fruit loops, built towers with 100 red cups, matched numbers on a number chart, and picked 10 items from 10 containers for goodie bags.
Other festivities included making 100 day hats, illustrating a portrait of themselves at 100 years old, doing 100 exercises, sorting 100 unifix cubes in groups of 10 and participating in math and English language arts activities centered on the number 100. The children also shared 100 treats that they brought from home with their classmates.

Two hundred business students from high schools across Nassau County, including Massapequa High School, competed for scholarships and cash awards—more than $33,000 in all—from various sponsors at Nassau County's annual Comptroller's Entrepreneurial Challenge.

The events on Sept. 11, 2001 had a profound effect on nearly all in the tri-state area, but for first responders, the effects were overwhelming. Long-time Massapequa resident Michael Smith, a member of the New York Fire Department, experienced those effects firsthand.
"While I've always been a person that could appreciate life, after 9/11 I became so distraught," he said. "I realized I need to do something I want to do — something I love to do."
A 30-year veteran of the fire department, Smith retired in 2002. He and his wife of 33 years, Teresa, began to look for a place they could enjoy life. This mindset brought them to the East End of Long Island, where they often went for day trips. They settled down in a home in Orient Point in 2004; in a home that needed quite a bit of work. And when it was time to landscape the property, a new idea took root — a vineyard.

Re: Sons of Anarchy: Season 5 (Discussion Thread, SPOILERS)
I thought the second episode was a bit slow in parts here, and didn't think the wedding bits were great but I guess they add to the story arc overall.
What, Opey can punch a cop and end up in the exact same prison as his fellow proven gang members who are wanted for Murder? ..
I do like Jimmy Smits' character though, it's definitely an interesting dynamic between him & Jax and something I hope we get to see more of. I genuinely hope he is a good guy with longevity because if he turns bad, you just know that it will all come back on the club and as protagonists they need to take care of business.
The home invasion stuff, I don't know, how are they connected? It seemed to go from 2 or 3 nobodies straight to Gemma and Clays house. They took the safe but only kept the certificates is a bit strange too.
My memory is fuzzy from previous seasons, is Tara still a nurse? I don't know if it's the actress, the character or a mix of both but she looks like shit now. She is legitimately a younger version of Gemma. I do believe this is what they are trying to create, but go from straight lace doctor to Hag in a few months is crazy. She looks like a drug addict. Gemma looks like a scarecrow in silk and I'm not sure if we're supposed to think she is hot because she really isn't. Is she supposed to be a MILF?
I had high hopes for this season and know this was a slow episode after the first one was so brutal and intense, hopefully come the end of episodes 13 I will be desperate for the next season premiere.

|Where Can I find Raw milk in western washington?
Follow-Up Postings:

Start calling retailers ...
After you read this:
|I like to use this great site called Agrilicious to source my food directly from a farmer or farmers market.
I am not entirely positive if you can buy Raw milk in a grocery store. But if you click the link below it will show you a variety of farms and farmers markets that sell raw milk in western washington.

|The federal govt. has to stop micro-managing our lives.
|They'd probably do that if the people who produce our food would sanitize things well enough to stop killing people.
There's a reason we have food safety laws - they save lives.
- Posted by chaparra72 3/4 (My Page) on Fri, Aug 1, 14 at 13:43
|@ JoppaRich:
That is one of the most mis-informed statements I have ever heard. It has nothing to do with "sanitizing" anything.
We have more food safety laws today than EVER, and you have more to worry about today, as far as food is concerned.
- Posted by RyseRyse_2004 5 (My Page) on Fri, Aug 1, 14 at 15:41
|I really would like to see the people killed by drinking raw milk. Probably about the same number that died of raw carrots.
- Posted by lazygardens PhxAZ%3A Sunset 13 (My Page) on Wed, Aug 6, 14 at 15:42
|Jopparich: We have more food safety laws today than EVER, and you have more to worry about today, as far as food is concerned.
Have you ever read any housekeeping books from the 1890s? They tell the housewife how to detect all kinds of adulterants that you don't have to worry about any more because of those regulations.
RyseRyse - Here ya' go ... and is having to get a kidney transplant close enough to death for you?
Something similar happened in my community when I was a wee toddler ... except it was streptococcus , not E. coli, an outbreak of scarlet fever, not kidney failure, and some children were left with damaged hearts, not kidneys.
But the farm was doing everything "right", from the pasture fed cows to the scrubbed and scalded collection buckets. But somewhere along the route, a few pathogens got in the milk (a sneeze, a subclinical case of mastitis, a barely noticeable infected cut ... they never found the source) and children all across the valley were affected. the only thing they had in common was buying milk from that farm.

|I don't know. We used to have dairy cows & always drank raw milk.Many dairy farmers do, too but don't admit it publically.
There's 2 sides to the issue.Both have merit to them.We have pasteurization for a reason but I think it's possible to have certified raw milk dairies operate,too.There are just a lot more variables involved than the dairy industry would care to deal with & I cant really blame them.It's a very demanding, 24/7 job & the last thing dairy farmers need is bad press.
- Posted by RyseRyse_2004 5 (My Page) on Tue, Aug 12, 14 at 8:20
|Seems to me we should let people decide for themselves what they want to eat and drink and keep the regulations out of it.
I am so tired of the 'womb to tomb' government.
- Posted by lazygardens PhxAZ%3A Sunset 13 (My Page) on Thu, Aug 14, 14 at 11:14
|RyseRyse ... So you would also be against other farm regulations.
No regulation on pesticide use?
No labelling foods with GMO ingredients?
No banning growing GMO crops?
|An individual has the right to decide what they want to eat and drink. Period. The government has no business deciding that. Unfortunately most people gladly gave up their involvement in food preparation and fill their grocery carts with food processed and handled who knows where. Many do not even have a clue how to cook anything.
People became ill from filthy dairy practices and feeding cows swill back in the 1800's. Factory farms to this day are filthy operations, and yes, you would become ill drinking raw milk from one of those farms. What the government allows with huge factory farms is criminal. I have met people who had worked at some of them. What they told me made me feel ill.
Raw milk from 100% grass fed cows, who are moved to fresh pasture daily, and live and are handled in spotless conditions is perfectly safe. And delicious. It is extremely nutritious. It may not be your choice to drink milk from that farm, but it might be mine. And frankly, NO ONE has a right to tell me whether I can or not.
There is a great book titled "The Untold Story Of Milk". It's a great eye opener.
For the same reasons as stated above, I will not touch meat from a store either.
|Here's another eye-opener

|Well there was a lot of talk here about not drinking raw milk.I agree theres laws for reasons.People were getting really sick from raw milk.Did you ever go see what a cow does in a day?Lay in poop,suppose one cow is sick.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- The State Education Department is looking into allegations Lee County School Superintendent Dr. Joseph Burke mismanaged money and committed other misconduct.
The inspector general sent a letter to school board president Mary Fischer on Monday.
It says the state received allegations regarding Dr. Burke, and says the inspector general has the authority to investigate allegations of waste, fraud, or financial mismanagement within the school district.
The letter, made public on the school district's website, says the allegations include:
-Dr. Burke suspended an active Lee County Office of Professional Standards investigation (January 2012) concerning Dr. Deedara Hicks.
-Dr. Burke transferred approximately $1.6 million in grant funds (Federal and State Title I, II, III, and IDEA) from their designated grant accounts and line items to a separate general fund account (9600) without board approval.
-Within a question and answer memorandum, Dr. Burke acknowledged that the Organization Chart net increases in expenses from 2011-2012, totaled $298,000.00, but only $4,719.00 came from the General Fund. This appears to show $293,000.00 from Grant funds for top level administrators, instead of monies for the students and classrooms.
According to the agenda, the school board will discuss the issue at a special Tuesday meeting.
The letter asks for a response to the state within 30 days.

It appears that Sirius XM Radio won't have to file for bankruptcy thanks to a $530 million investment by Liberty Media Corp., according to the Wall Street Journal.
The satellite radio giant had hinted at http://www.electronichouse.com/article/sirius_xm_radio_preparing_for_bankruptcy" title="possibly filing for Chapter 11">possibly filing for Chapter 11 as soon as today. Speculation was that Charles Ergen, owner of Dish Network and EchoStar who recently bought up much of Sirius' debt, might move to acquire the company.
Instead, it's Liberty, a Colorado-based competitor of Ergen's companies, that comes to Sirius XM's rescue. The $530 million investment includes $250 million immediately in exchange for stock and seats on the board of the embattled satellite radio operator, according to WSJ.
It's good news for well-paid satellite stars like Howard Stern and Martha Stewart. There was some speculation that, under bankruptcy, Sirius XM would be forced to terminate some of its large contracts.

"For me and my 14 friends, St. Patrick's Day becomes St. Pammy's Day every year, as our good friend Pam celebrates her birthday! As she turned 25 years young, we partied the day away at Lizzie McNeill's, Chicago's biggest St. Patrick's Day bash right on the Chicago River. Everyone loved our custom tanks and we received many compliments. I told them - "Order through CustomInk!" I had such a great experience with CustomInk, from the ordering process, to delivery, to customer service during and after.
