In January I promised to use less plastic this year—and I'm actively working on my goal. I do not have a perfect track record yet, but I am doing much better than I have in the past. I love storing leftovers in my glass bowls in the refrigerator; it is easy to see what is in the bowl, they can be put directly in the microwave, and they don't hang onto food odors. I am a convert!
Simply being conscious of how many plastic bags I am not using at the grocery store is also encouraging. I have been bringing my own bags into other stores as well: the fabric store, craft store, when clothes shopping, etc. I simply stick a bag in my purse or pocket and hand it to the cashier when I'm ready to check out. Easy!
On a recent trip to Seattle, I found these reusable (and washable!) produce bags and I love them! They are constructed from a strong, lightweight mesh and have a simple drawstring closure. I found them at The Container Store (one of my favorite places, I must admit: so many ideas for organization and it's all so pretty!), but you can also find them online from Flip & Tumble. They come in a set of five, which I have found perfectly sufficient.
The challenge I am still overcoming is remembering to transfer my reusable bags from the house to the car after I've unloaded my items. Forgetful is my middle name, it seems.
I finally found time for another (this time a little more local) shopping adventure! Monroe Street in Spokane is bursting with antique and thrift stores. It seems that every time I drive down the street, another one has popped up. Last week I spent an afternoon scouring the shops, and oh boy is there a lot to find out there.
I am a sucker for kitchen and garden junk. (Is there a better word? I suppose other people deemed it junk at one point and gave it up, but to me the things I find are completely wonderful). Older kitchen utensils tend to be studier (and less expensive! Bonus!) than new. And I love using old, chipped enamelware (it comes in so many fun colors!) and galvanized metal for potted plants. On this trip I was specifically looking for enamelware and buttons for some upcoming projects (details to follow!).
Area 58: More thrift than antique, Area 58 is well-organized, friendly, and has very reasonable prices—also a good place for used books!
Fabulous Finds: If you're looking for kitchen items, home decor, or sewing goods, this is your place. And in March they're opening the second floor, which will feature mostly furniture. More good stuff to find!
Cruzin' By Antiques: A pretty new shop that is just starting to fill out. I can't wait to see what else they bring in.
Beads & Treasures: This shop is so full it can be difficult to navigate, but their prices are great and the potential to find something wonderful is high. They have many other things, but if you're looking for beads, this is your place!
Vintage Rabbit Antique Mall: The Vintage Rabbit has been on Monroe Street for years. It is huge and houses lots of variety. The prices are occasionally a little out of my range, but not always. I got the best enamelware bucket I've ever seen (pictured above) on my last visit!
When the shopping wears you out, stop in at Caffe Delicio for one of the best cups of chai tea in town. There are several tables inside, and it is a cozy, quiet local shop.
I think I'll be visiting Monroe Street every few weeks or so. My favorite part of thrift and antique store shopping is that the inventory changes fairly frequently, just don't wait too long to make a purchase; it may be gone the next time you're in!
What are some of your favorite shopping spots in town? (I promise I'll leave some of the good stuff for you).
Every year on Valentine's Day I make a gifts for some of my closest friends. To me, Valentine's Day doesn't need to focus on romance; I simply like to let important people in my life know they are loved. In the spirit of friendly Valentines, I have gathered links to several quick and easy (as in you could easily whip them together this weekend) projects. Let me know what Valentines you make this year!
Paper and felt heart chains by Betz White. I love the simplicity and decorating potential! Hang one above a door, in a front window, or down the middle of a dining table as a simple centerpiece. Make a heart chain from white, cream, and craft-colored paper for a decoration that is less obviously Valentine-y.
"Naturally Sweet" printable fruit stickers by Twig & Thistle. These stickers are almost too simple not to make: place a sticker on each piece of fruit in the fruit bowl or put a piece of fruit in everyone's lunch! Print out the templates and attach with double sided tape or use sticker paper.
"Be Mine" garland by The Polkadot Chair. I do love a good project made from newsprint. Perhaps it is the kid in me, but I love cutting up old newspapers, and creating sustainable crafts makes my heart happy. This garland can be made and used for years to come.
Printable color-your-own valentines from Up Up. I love the simple designs and ease of these templates. This would be great to do with kids. Don't forget to sharpen your colored pencils!
Heart-shaped Valentines from Alpha Mom. Another simple Valentine card that takes minimal work to create with fantastic results. This would be a great last minute project.
While the weather is still drizzly and cold, I've been spending time inside sifting through thrift, antique, and junk shops. With some time and a little patience, you can find great things to repurpose in your home or garden: all you have to do is open your eyes and think a little creatively!
I spent last weekend in Clarkston with a good friend, doing just that, and I drove back to Spokane with a car full of treasure. If you haven't been to the L/C Valley for an afternoon of shopping (and eating…there are some great pastries in these small towns), I highly recommend a day trip. Clarkston is about two hours from Spokane and the drive takes you through Union Town, which is chock full of great shops.
For a trip to Clarkston and Union Town, I recommend the following stops:
The Hanger Antique Emporium: an old airplane hanger turned antique mall, the place is vast, has great variety, and free coffee to keep you going—plan some serious time for this one.
River Chicks' Antiques & Knicks: smaller, but friendly and packed with things ready to be found!
Daily's: for lunch and pastries. Great food, great coffee, great baked goods.
In Union Town, stop at the Artisan Barn, which displays and sells local artists' wares year round. You'll find three great antique and flea market shops along 195 as you drive through town. I have purchased everything from furniture to garden art on my trips. While you're in town, stop at the Sage Bakery. Their jammers (jam-filled scones) are worth the trip all on their own.
This coming week I hope to make my way through the Monroe Street antique and thrift stores as my hunt for treasures continues. I'll let you know what I find!

Assembly of standardized building components at a location other than the building site. Units may include doors, stairs, window walls, wall panels, floor panels, roof trusses, room-sized components, and even entire buildings. Prefabrication requires the cooperation of architects, suppliers, and builders regarding the size of basic modular units. In the U.S. building industry, the 4-by-8-ft (1.2-by-2.4-m) panel is a standard unit; the architect's drafted building plans and the supplier's prefabricated wall units are based on multiples of that module. Advantages of prefabrication include the cost savings of mass production, the opportunity to use specialized equipment to produce components, and standardization of parts for quick assembly and erection. The major drawback is in assigning responsibility for quality control. Seealso precast concrete.
Learn more about prefabrication with a free trial on Britannica.com.
Prefabrication is the practice of assembling components of a structure in a factory or other manufacturing site, and transporting complete assemblies or sub-assemblies to the construction site where the structure is to be located. The term is used to distinguish this process from the more conventional construction practice of transporting the basic materials to the construction site where all assembly is carried out.
The term prefabrication also applies to the manufacturing of things other than structures at a fixed site. It is frequently used when fabrication of a section of a machine or any movable structure is shifted from the main manufacturing site to another location, and the section is supplied assembled and ready to fit. It is not generally used to refer to electrical or electronic components of a machine, or mechanical parts such as pumps, gearboxes and compressors which are usually supplied as separate items, but to sections of the body of the machine which in the past were fabricated with the whole machine. Prefabricated parts of the body of the machine may be called 'sub-assemblies' to distinguish them from the other components.
Prefabrication is used in the manufacture of ships, aircraft and all kinds of vehicles and machines where sections previously assembled at the final point of manufacture are assembled elsewhere instead, before being delivered for final assembly.
The theory behind the method is that time and cost is saved if similar construction tasks can be grouped, and assembly line techniques can be employed in prefabrication at a location where skilled labour is available, while congestion at the assembly site, which wastes time, can be reduced. The method finds application particularly where the structure is composed of repeating units or forms, or where multiple copies of the same basic structure are being constructed. Prefabrication avoids the need to transport so many skilled workers to the construction site, and other restricting conditions such as a lack of power, lack of water, exposure to harsh weather or a hazardous environment are avoided. Against these advantages must be weighed the cost of transporting prefabricated sections and lifting them into position as they will usually be larger, more fragile and more difficult to handle than the materials and components of which they are made.
The most widely-used form of prefabrication in building and civil engineering is the use of prefabricated concrete and prefabricated steel sections in structures where a particular part or form is repeated many times. It can be difficult to construct the formwork required to mould concrete components on site, and delivering wet concrete to the site before it starts to set requires precise time management. Pouring concrete sections in a factory brings the advantages of being able to re-use moulds and the concrete can be mixed on the spot without having to be transported to and pumped wet on a congested construction site. Prefabricating steel sections reduces on-site cutting and welding costs as well as the associated hazards.
Prefabrication techniques are used in the construction of apartment blocks, and housing developments with repeated housing units. The quality of prefabricated housing units had increased to the point that they may not be distinguishable from traditionally-built units to those that live in them. The technique is also used in office blocks, warehouses and factory buildings. Prefabricated steel and glass sections are widely used for the exterior of large buildings.
Prefabrication saves engineering time on the construction site in civil engineering projects. This can be vital to the success of projects such as bridges and avalanche galleries, where weather conditions may only allow brief periods of construction. Additionally, small, commonly-used structures such as concrete pylons are in most cases prefabricated.
Radio towers for mobile phone and other services often consist of multiple prefabricated sections. Modern lattice towers and guyed masts are also commonly assembled of prefabricated elements.
Prefabrication has become widely used in the assembly of aircraft and spacecraft, with components such as wings and fuselage sections often being manufactured in different countries or states from the final assembly site.

New London airport considered on Thames Estuary
LONDON – Fifty miles southeast of this city's glittering skyscrapers lies a quiet patch of sea that looks like any other. Only container ships disturb its peace, and the distant coast is a sleepy stretch of marsh and farm fields.
If London Mayor Boris Johnson has his way, this expanse of water at the mouth of the Thames river could be transformed into one of the world's biggest and busiest airports.
Proposals floated by Johnson's office for the site envision a four-runway airport, which would sit atop an artificial island or two, perhaps linked by tunnels. Boris Island, the tabloids call it. Johnson's critics call it "daft," "ridiculous" and "a crazy Bond fantasy."
Now Boris' fantasy island doesn't seem so daft after all.
The British government is now seriously mulling whether to build a huge airport in the so-called Thames Estuary region. Johnson has talked up an airport there since 2008, but his idea gained fresh impetus after Prime Minister David Cameron's government decided to kill plans to expand Heathrow, London's primary airport.
"We need to retain our status as a key global hub for air travel," Cameron said last Monday in reaffirming that a Thames Estuary airport is a serious option being considered in the government's aviation strategy. "Yes," he acknowledged, "this will be controversial."
The debate could shape the journeys of millions of Americans, who make nearly 2.5 million visits a year to Britain. The vast majority make landfall at the notoriously jam-packed and delay-plagued Heathrow, which also serves as a major transit point for U.S. travelers to Europe and beyond. In 2010, roughly 85% of the 57,000 reported U.S. flights to Britain landed at Heathrow, according to statistics from the Civil Aviation Authority.
A Thames Estuary airport would be "a clean sheet of paper," says Huw Thomas of Foster and Partners, a prominent British architecture firm that has proposed an airport near the mayor's site. "You're not facing any of the legacy issues that Heathrow suffers today."
Whatever its advantages, Boris Island faces opposition from an uneasy but powerful alliance of labor unions, environmentalists and residents of the Thames Estuary. The project's $60 billion price tag also works against it.
London's airport problem has "no clear-cut solution," says aviation consultant Mark Clarkson of ASM. "It's just a question of whether or not the government and industry bodies can … agree on going forward. Until they do that, in my view, the country's going to continue to suffer."
Heathrow's problems
Anyone who has flown to Heathrow regularly over the last decade knows what it's like to suffer. Heathrow is the world's busiest international airport as well as the busiest airport in Europe. In January alone, a record 5.2 million travelers rubbed shoulders in Heathrow's bustling lounges. Roughly a third were transferring to another flight.
The problem is that Heathrow was never meant for such traffic. From a small private air strip in the 1930s, it has grown haphazardly into a sprawling complex of terminals — but still has only two runways. Today, Heathrow's runways operate at nearly 99% of capacity, a surefire recipe for delays and cancellations.
In the summer, planes depart Heathrow an average of 20 minutes late during much of the day, according to a 2011 report by a government aviation task force. Jets are forced to wait in long lines to take off and often circle above the city in holding "stacks" before there's a slot to touch down. Wags joke that those landing at Heathrow can wave hello from the air to their houses over and over.
The airport's shortcomings have earned it a place on many worst airports lists and a legion of disgruntled fliers.
"We refer to it as 'Deathrow,' " says Frederick Harvey, an American retiree now living in Thailand who has passed through the airport frequently. "There are always so many people in that place. It's almost claustrophobic. … Just too many flights are scheduled to go through there."
In 2009, Britain's government gave the go-ahead for a third runway at Heathrow, which in theory would have reduced delays. But elections in 2010 ushered in Cameron as prime minister. As promised, the Conservative Cameron swiftly killed Heathrow's expansion, which was opposed by the voters living in the airport's flight paths.
At first Cameron seemed equally set against the idea of an airport in the Thames Estuary, the lightly populated area of the British coast where the Thames meets the North Sea.
The government "has no plans to build an airport in the Thames Estuary, Medway or Kent," Cameron told the House of Commons in late 2010, referring to districts close to the estuary. His government also promised not to allow new runways at two of London's smaller airports, Stansted and Gatwick.
The decisions outraged the business community. Business leaders argue that without more air capacity, London risks losing foreign investment and transfer passengers to rivals such as Amsterdam and Paris. Those cities' larger airports give passengers a greater choice of destinations, especially in the Far East, than Heathrow does.
Air connections are "absolutely critical," says Ashley Steel, head of infrastructure, government and health for the British branch of consultants KPMG. "History shows that where you build out good transportation infrastructure, economies grow and develop and flourish."
Facing pressure from business, Cameron's government softened its disdain for what supporters call Heathrow by Sea. And Cameron pledged the "pros and cons of a new airport in the Thames Estuary" would be considered by the government, which is devising a new aviation policy.
If the government decides that London should get a shiny new airport, aviation experts say the Thames Estuary is the logical spot, simply because it's one of the very few areas near London that still offers large stretches of open space.
"I can't think of anywhere else it could be located, if we were to build a new airport," says David Banister, head of Oxford University's Transport Studies Unit.
Accommodating jumbo jets
Flights to the Thames Estuary airport site proposed by Foster and Partners would approach mostly over the sea, minimizing both noise pollution and danger to humans, the firm's Thomas says. And an airport built from scratch could be designed to accommodate 21st-century superjumbo jets, as well as more convenient transfers between flights.
Unlike Heathrow's five far-flung terminals, a new airport would offer "the ability to interchange incredibly quickly in one facility," Thomas says. "It's an excellent location that gives you all these aviation advantages."
The site chosen by Thomas and his colleagues is on the coast, west of Johnson's proposed locale in the estuary's waters. Even so, the architects' plan has drawn favorable reviews from the mayor, who has said he's not wedded to a particular spot. Johnson's office did not respond to USA TODAY's requests for comment.
An airport with more runways would offer passengers more destinations and more frequent flights than Heathrow can now, says John Holland-Kaye, commercial director of BAA, Heathrow's owner and operator. The number of destinations available from Heathrow has dropped recently, he notes.
Heathrow has embarked on a series of massive renovations, so the airport "will keep getting better," Holland-Kaye says. But without an additional runway, "We just won't be able to offer the choice people need."
For every advantage offered by a Thames Estuary airport, there are significant obstacles:
•Resources. Estimates of the cost of a Thames Estuary airport and the accompanying rail and road links start at $60 billion — a tall order at any time and especially so now, as the government slashes spending.
•Resistance from the airlines. British Airways and Virgin Atlantic, the major carriers between the USA and Britain, are wary of a Thames Estuary airport, citing its cost and 15- to 20-year development. BA chief Willie Walsh has threatened to move some of his operations overseas if Heathrow doesn't get a third runway.
•Birds. Much of the area is a strictly protected habitat for the hundreds of thousands of waterfowl and wading birds that flock to the Thames Estuary to spend the winter. A decade ago, the government killed proposals to build a Thames Estuary airport partly out of fears of potentially disastrous bird "strikes" on jets.
•Inertia. Some 76,000 people work at Heathrow, which is surrounded by businesses that have sprung up to take advantage of the airport's proximity. Heathrow would almost certainly close if a new airport opened, leading unions such as GMB, whose members include airport security guards and check-in staff, to oppose a new Thames Estuary facility.
Faced with such barriers, it would take substantial political will to get a Thames Estuary airport off the ground, experts say. And the level of Cameron's enthusiasm isn't clear. Some observers say the recent signs of support have more to do with London's upcoming mayoral election, in which Johnson is seeking re-election, than with what's best for air travelers. Johnson, like Cameron, is a Conservative.
"Conservatives in central government need (Johnson) to win, so they have now gone along with his estuary project," George Jones, an emeritus professor at the London School of Economics, says. "There is no real commitment by central government to the scheme — no resources are committed nor legislation promised soon."
Few are optimistic that the Thames Estuary airport — or any other way to solve Heathrow's problems — will go ahead.
"There's currently no solution that has majority support," Clarkson says. Any option that's chosen "will inevitably be discussed, changed and delayed further."

More Than 20 Runners To Reach 7 Marathons On 7 Continents Goal At The Antarctica Marathon
BOSTON, Feb. 15, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- More than 20 runners are expected to reach their goal of completing marathons on all seven continents at the 14 th Antarctica Marathon on March 7, announced Boston-based Marathon Tours & Travel, the event and expedition organizer.
Also known as "The Last Marathon," the Antarctica Marathon is held annually on King George Island, located off the Antarctic Peninsula in Antarctica – the coldest, windiest and most remote continent on Earth.
"There has been tremendous interest in running a marathon on all seven continents ever since the inaugural Antarctica Marathon in 1995," says Thom Gilligan, president of Marathon Tours & Travel and race director of the Antarctica Marathon and Half Marathon. "The goal of running a marathon on all seven continents is an extraordinary feat attempted by ordinary people in their pursuit of self-discovery or other notable goals."
In 1998, Marathon Tours founded a Seven Continents Club to recognize those who have accomplished this feat. Since then, more than 367 globetrotting runners have achieved the goal, according to Gilligan.Despite its extreme nature, the Antarctica Marathon and Half Marathon has sold out 11 of its last 14 editions, usually years in advance, and is presently sold out through 2016. The 26.2- and 13.1-mile courses transverse gravel roads that connect and pass the scientific research bases of Uruguay, Chile, China and Russia. Race-day temperatures can range from 15 to 34 F with wind gusts that can easily reach 40 mph. Held at the tail end of the Antarctic summertime, heavy snow is rare but light flurries are common. Traveling to a marathon on what is often referred to as the "Last Continent," is a marathon in itself. Athletes will travel an average of 6,500 miles each; first to Buenos Aires, Argentina, before departing to Ushuaia, Argentina, the southern-most city in the world. There they will board Akademik loffe, a Russian icebreaker ship for a two-day crossing of the Drake Passage, a body of water notorious for being one of the roughest seas in the world. The 14-day expedition also includes a number of landings on the continent, sea kayaking and wildlife viewing. Other notable entrants include:

'No More Hair' For a Good Cause
Submitted: 11/20/2012
- For most of us, our Thanksgiving tables will be weighed down with food.
But some students in Rhinelander were worried about those who don't have as much - so they weighed in with a donation.
Zion Lutheran School School has held a Thanksgiving food collection for about twenty years.
But this year, teachers gave students an extra incentive. The principal and athletic director promised to shave their beard or head if students donated at least 1,000 pounds of food.
They nearly tripled that goal.
Zion's 80 students carried 2,900 pounds of food to the Rhinelander Food Pantry on Monday.
On Tuesday, they got their big payoff.
"Th first the thing that made me want to give food was to give glory to God and stuff," said fourth grader Caleb Korthals. "And then also because I wanted the teachers to lose their hair, like everyone wanted to."
"Our students are very excited, they're very proud of our accomplishments that we managed to bring in," said Paul Mildebrandt, who donated his hair to the cause. "Our students brought in more than 250 pounds of food per child in our school. And the kids are just excited that my head is shaved."
Principal Tim Ristow had to lose his beard, which he's had for 20 years.
But he said the sacrifice was worth it.
"We were pretty confident that the families would come through and the kids would come through. So I can't really say I was surprised at it. They just let their love for Jesus show through, and that didn't surprise me at all," he said.
Mildebrandt said he'd keep his head shaved until Christmas to reward the students for their big achievement.
Lucky for him, his fellow teachers also had a donation for him: a hat.

Specific areas of active research include the brain mechanisms supporting habituation, a simple form of learning to disregard unimportant stimuli; cocaine sensitization, a process by which repeated low doses of cocaine produce a heightened sensitivity to subsequent doses of this drug; and animal models of psychopathology. A variety of papers have been published on these topics, many which include student co-authors. Also, I am interested in drug use patterns and attitudes about drugs among college students.

"I'm firmly convinced after working on this book that John Kennedy's sexual interests were in women. We don't need much evidence of that, the evidence is all over the place. But his strongest emotional attachments were to men, and principally, to Lem. We don't have a word for that, right? Somebody who prefers the opposite gender for sexuality, and the same gender for deep, emotional attachments?"In other words, JFK subscribes to the Homer Simpson philosophy on gender -- Marge: "He prefers the company of men."

Analgesics for Osteoarthritis—An Update
Background: Nonsteroidal Anti-inflammatory Drugs
NSAIDs work by blocking cyclooxygenase (COX) enzymes, particularly COX-1 and COX-2. COX-1 mediates the mucosal protection of the gastrointestinal (GI) mucosa. COX-2 mediates effects on pain and inflammation.
By blocking COX-2 enzymes, NSAIDs decrease pain and inflammation. Nonselective NSAIDs block both COX-1 and COX-2 enzymes. NSAIDs that block COX-1 can cause GI adverse effects, including bleeding.
Selective or partially selective (in vitro) NSAIDs block mostly COX-2, and thus should be safer with regard to GI adverse effects. However, it is unclear if partially selective NSAIDs are truly different from nonselective NSAIDs because COX-2 selectivity may be lost at higher doses. The effects of in vitro COX-2 selectivity on clinical outcomes is uncertain.
All NSAIDs can also cause cardiovascular adverse effects.

UM-Dearborn professor emeritus Paul Carter died Jan. 27
DEARBORN---Paul Carter, professor emeritus of education at the University
of Michigan-Dearborn, died of heart failure in Dearborn on Jan. 27. He
was 96 years old.
Carter was instrumental in building the education programs now offered
at UM-Dearborn, including the creation of the master's degree in education
in 1975. As coordinator of teacher certification in the liberal arts division,
Carter supervised the development of campus's teacher preparation program.
His career at U-M began in 1957 when he was appointed assistant professor
in the School of Education on the Ann Arbor campus. Two years later, he
was promoted to associate professor and began dividing his time between
the Ann Arbor and Dearborn campuses.
In 1963, Carter was promoted to professor and became chairman of the
education faculty in Dearborn, a post he held until 1969 when he was appointed
the campus's first director of graduate studies. He retired from the faculty
and was named professor emeritus in 1977.
Among other initiatives, Carter led the development of a master of arts
degree program in education, jointly sponsored by the School of Education
in Ann Arbor and the Division of Education at Dearborn and offered on
the Dearborn campus.
"Throughout his years in education, Paul D. Carter exemplified the
humanity, the inspiration and vigor of a dedicated educator," the
U-M Regents noted on Carter's retirement. "It is these qualities
which won him the admiration of his colleagues and the enduring affection
of his students."
A Michigan native, Carter earned his doctorate from Wayne State University
and his master's degree from U-M. He began his career as a classroom teacher
and teacher-principal. He joined the Birmingham school system in 1942
as an elementary school principal, and later became the school district's
elementary coordinator and assistant superintendent.
Survivors include sons Alan, in Ann Arbor, and John, in Northville.
A memorial service will be held at 2 p.m. Sunday, Feb. 5 in the chapel
of Henry Ford Village, 15101 Ford Rd., in Dearborn. Memorial contributions
can be sent to the Henry Ford Village benevolent fund at the same address.

Caitlin loves picking up various things she finds when we go on walks. So we made it a fun game. See what new things you can find. We found the usual sticks, pine cones, and plain old rocks. But we also found moss, shells, rose quartz (pink rocks), and a FROG.
Aside from the frog, we put all her finds in my hat. My hat because that's all we had to hold stuff in. Then when we got home put them all in a mason jar and we've got an easy peasy nature jar. Looks pretty on the shelf too.
Some of Caitlin's finds.
Beautiful view.
Eric walking ahead.
Mommy and Caitlin. Wow, my hair in pony tail looks pretty terrible. Of course, I was wearing a hat until it became a collection holder so we'll blame it on that.

Quakers use the term Query to refer to a question or series of questions used for reflection and in spiritual exercises. Friends have used Queries as tools for offering spiritual challenges to the community for much of their history. Queries often take the form of a collection of themed questions that are read at the beginning of a time of worship or reflection. Many yearly meetings maintain a set of basic queries in their books of Faith and Practice to provide guidance on certain issues over time. Individuals often offer queries from time to time to provide a spiritual challenge to their local community of Friends.

For nearly 80 years, the Religion News Service has been an authoritative source of news about religion, spirituality and ideas. With a team of correspondents around the world, RNS provides news on religion and its intersections with political and cultural issues. Our stories are distributed to the nation's leading newspapers, news magazines, online media outlets, broadcasting firms and religious publications.
The Religious News Service was founded by journalist Louis Minsky (1909-1957), as an independent, non-profit affiliate of the National Conference of Christians and Jews. From the start, it was dedicated to providing fair, balanced, non-sectarian news about religion to the secular and religious press.
In 1983, RNS was acquired by the Dallas-based United Methodist Reporter and continued to operate as an independent news agency. In 1994, Newhouse News Service, a major publisher of daily newspapers and magazines, purchased it and changed its name to Religion News Service.
In June 2011, RNS returned to its non-profit roots when it was acquired by the Religion Newswriters Association and its foundation, registered as a new 501(c)3 owned by Religion News LLC.
With a three-year grant totaling nearly $3.5 million from the Indianapolis-based Lilly Endowment Inc., RNS plans to expand its online presence and launch a series of community religion websites devoted to maintaining and expanding coverage of religion news.
The RNS editorial office shares space with University of Missouri programs at the National Press Building, 529 14th St. NW, Washington D.C., DC 20045. Dr. Debra L. Mason, executive director of Religion Newswriters and a professor at the University of Missouri's Journalism School, manages the news service.
Under the leadership of Editor-in-Chief Kevin Eckstrom, RNS continues to expand its coverage to include the intersection of religion with politics, gay rights, immigration, the environment and the atheist community. The RNS has nearly 200 subscribers.

Jimmy Fallon Premieres 'Tonight Show' in New York: 'I'll Be Your Host...For Now'
Dance steps with Will Smith. A concert with U2 under a blood-red sky. Tributes from Robert DeNiro, Lindsay Lohan, Tina Fey, Stephen Colbert and Mike Tyson. Not bad for a first day on the job.
Rather than brag about the entire affair, Jimmy Fallon, clad in two-buttoned gray suit and black tie, approached his initial turn as host of NBC's venerable "Tonight" show with humility during a taping on early Monday evening. He talked to the audience as if many hadn't watched him during his slightly less than five-year tenure on "Late Night." He pointed out his parents sitting in the studio audience. And he told Will Smith, the first guest in what NBC dubbed "Show #0001" he was mindful of his place in the program's long history: "This is a big deal, and it's a lot of pressure," he said. "Do you have advice for me, how to handle the pressure?"
NBC is positioning Fallon as the good-natured yin to the raunchy-fun yang evidenced by Jimmy Kimmel over at ABC. Fallon plays kiddie-favorite games with his guests; Kimmel asks them to read mean tweets about themselves. Fallon asks Bruce Springsteen to write a satirical version of "Born To Run" poking fun at New Jersey Governor Chris Christie. Kimmel enlists Matt Damon to take part in a fictional hijacking of his program, letting the actor take pot-shots at the host all the while.
As CBS' David Letterman moves closer to what is expected to be retirement, Fallon and Kimmel, along with a passel of cable competitors, represent the third post-Carson generation of late-night and the skirmish for audience is NBC's to lose. "Tonight" has dominated for the Peacock for most of its time on the air. Yet as the latenight audience continues to splinter around a dizzying array of options - from Jon Stewart to Arsenio Hall to Chelsea Handler to reruns of Guy Fieri on The Food Network - there's no guarantee either NBC or ABC will be able to rule outright.
NBC kept Fallon's debut under close wraps Monday, allowing a handful of reporters to view the taping of the program only after agreeing not to disclose any details until after 12 a.m. eastern, when the show, delayed half an hour due to NBC's Olympics coverage, was set to launch.
Among ad buyers, the general view is that Fallon's show will likely lose a little bit of its audience, while maintaining a slight edge over competitors. For NBC, said Brian Hughes, senior vice president of audience analysis at Interpublic Group's Manga Global, Fallon's show is likely cheaper to produce than Leno's, which makes it a sounder bet as TV is beset by ratings erosion amidst new viewing choices.
Yet Fallon could still maintain a lead. "The 'Tonight Show' with Fallon will more than likely beat Letterman once it settles in, but it will be by a small margin. Certainly not as big as the margin Leno had this past year," said Billie Gold, vice president and director of buying and programming research at Carat, a large media buying agency that counts General Motors among its clients. "In truth, this will be a three late-night show 'dog and pony' race in terms of total viewership, with Fallon having the edge thanks to the 'Tonight Show' legacy."
If any of this was on Fallon's mind as he embarked on what could be a years-long tenure, it only showed a little. "I'm Jimmy Fallon and I'll be your host...for now," he quipped. He made certain to note his predecessors on the program - even naming Conan O'Brien (and Jay Leno twice).
And he showed signs of the new feel and pace of his 'Tonight,', which has come back to New York City after a decades-long run on the West Coast. Fallon's show is colored in red-and-gold hues and wood tones. The studio is significantly smaller than Leno's soundstage. The monologue is still topical, but it's not all delivered like a stand-up routine. As he did Monday evening, Fallon is likely to incorporate topical bits into the show's first segment. On his first program, he designated yearbook superlatives to various Olympic athletes, with New Zealand skeleton runner Ben Sandford being named "Most Likely To Play Jazz Flute."
Fallon's team has booked an eye-popping array of guests for the show's first two weeks. On his first program, Fallon convinced Smith to come out for a demonstration of the evolution of rap dancing in addition to the usual conversation segment. And he got U2 to take to the top of 30 Rockefeller Center for a brief concert along as well as to play an acoustic number in the studio. But the most fun part of the evening may have been an early segment in which Fallon chastised an unnamed friend who had always voiced skepticism over whether the entertainer would ever hold forth on "Tonight." That pal, Fallon told the audience, owed him $100. After that, a parade of celebrities, including Sarah Jessica Parker, Mariah Carey, Seth Rogen, Lady Gaga and former New York mayor Rudy Giuliani (as well as those mentioned above), turned up to cough up a C-note.
"My goal is just to make you laugh and put a smile on your face so that you go to sleep with a smile on your face and live a longer life," said Fallon, during the monologue. "Isn't that the whole goal of what we're doing? To have fun?"
NBC might beg to differ. But there's little doubt the new host will produce a lot of laughs in the process.

Thirteen (Women of the Otherworld) (edition 2012)

No current Talk conversations about this book.
A lot of plot threads were left dangling in this wrapup of the series.
So this is the wrap up of the Women of the Otherworld series and the plus is the world doesn't come to an end and you know at some point she will dip back into this world but who is to say who she will write about next time. Everyone makes a bow at some point during the story which gets to be a bit packed with people. And for a showdown with the big bad why would you send someone who's magic isn't 100% up to snuff. It was ok but I think I am tired of Savannah as a lead.
A pretty satisfying ending to a series I loved. I've read other people's accusations about being fan-service-y and I agree-but I don't think that's a bad thing. I wanted to see Eve and Hope again, even if it was a little bit of a sprawling plot.
4.5 stars
I have loved this series since I read Bitten many years ago. I don't love all the characters/narrators. I don't even love all the books. Some were much better than others. Part of that might be because of whether I like the narrator of the book. [b:Living with the Dead|2813124|Living with the Dead (Women of the Otherworld, #9)|Kelley Armstrong|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1320464731s/2813124.jpg|2492798] is probably my least favorite book of the series. Part of that is that the entire book is written in third person (unlike the rest of the series) and that it jumps point of views very frequently. The flow was not as good.
With that being said, in this book, Savannah is the narrator for most of this book. When it does change perspectives, it jumps to third person, but in this book it flowed much better. I didn't have the same issues that I had with Living with the Dead. It gave us one last chance to be with our old favorite narrators.
You get to see every major character and most of the secondary characters (though, I don't think I could tell you who is missing that is still alive, but I'm sure there is someone). Also, you get to see several characters you don't expect to see again. Jaz is one. The Cortezes use his unique talents for a mission. The other I won't mention because it is a HUGE spoiler.
As much as I'm saddened to see this series end, I think it was a very good end. Sometimes series fall flat at the end of the series. You feel like you've been building up to this huge finally, and then the end sucks and you're left unhappy. That is not the case with this. I think it ended really well. It is not perfect. There are still dangers out there, but it has a conclusion.
Also, my understanding is that there will still be some short stories from this series. I hope we get to see more from the men's perspective. I loved [b:Men of the Otherworld|3422075|Men of the Otherworld (Otherworld Stories I)|Kelley Armstrong|http://photo.goodreads.com/books/1320501705s/3422075.jpg|2860439]. It is one of my all-time favorite books. The audiobook for that is even better.
Overall I loved this book. I've come to terms with Savannah and Adam as a couple, even though I still can't really say that I like it, but what I loved was the family stuff. Savannah and Eve getting to see each other in the flesh again. The demons getting involved in the lives of their children and grandchildren. The interaction between Savannah and her brothers. And when a few characters had near misses with death, I totally bought it, although that might have at least as much to do with what GRRM makes me expect from a series with many main characters as it does with Kelley Armstrong's writing.
I do have one quibble: Hope's chaos hunger weakening because her daughter took some of her powers uncomfortably suggests a damaged woman being "fixed" by motherhood to me. However, since it was not primarily Hope's book although she does play a major role in the plot, that didn't ruin the whole thing.

Catherine Yurievskaya
Princess Catherine Alexandrovna Yurievskaya (9 February 1878 – 22 December 1959) (Russian: Екатерина Александровна Юрьевская, Ekaterina), was the natural daughter of Alexander II of Russia by his mistress, later his wife, Catherine Dolgorukov. In her own family she was known as Katia. In 1880, she was legitimated by her parents' marriage. After her father's assassination in 1881, her mother brought her up in France, and she was married there in 1901, having two sons, but was widowed in 1910. Her second marriage was during the Great War, in Russia, and she suffered hardships during the ensuing Russian Civil War. In the 1920s she became a professional singer. In 1932 she settled in England on Hayling Island, where she died in 1959. Catherine was born at St Petersburg, Russia, on 9 September 1878, while her mother was still the mistress of Czar Alexander II. When she was two, her parents' morganatic marriage on 6 July 1880 brought about her legitimation, so that she gained the title of Svetlost, or Serene Highness. Her father was assassinated in March 1881, when she was three, and she lived thereafter with her mother, brother George and sister Olga, who settled together in  ( Wikipedia article )

"This Guy's In Love With You"
Opening Lines:
You see this guy's, this guy's in love with you.
"This Guy's In Love With You" was Herb Alpert's first #1 song in the summer of 1968 (and Alpert wouldn't visit the #1 position again until his instrumental hit, "Rise" in the fall of 1979). But it was written by Alpert, it was written by his friends, the award winning duo of Hal David and Burt Bacharach.

5 Stock Ideas From Ira Sohn Conference
NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- The Ira Sohn Conference was chock-full of investment ideas from hedge fund luminaries such as Bill Ackman, Stan Druckenmiller, Jeffrey Gundlach, David Einhorn and others.
Pershing Square's Ackman, in the news because of his battle with Herbalife (HLF), recommended Procter & Gamble (PG), saying he thinks it could go to $125 a share in a few years.
Pershing owns 29 million shares of PG. vastly under earning its potential— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
Strong profitability, high barriers to entry, ex. Global growth opp., and limited private label competition #sohn— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG has 25 billion plus brands, which could each be their own company #sohn— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
40% of PG revenue is from emerging market.— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG is under earning. Never fully integrated Gillette. Suboptimal mfg., inefficient org design, emerging markets require invest 1/2— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
Marketing investments are not reaching appropriate returns and pricing is not optimized 2/2 #sohn— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG has recognized $10 bln in cost savings by 2016. Could be earning $6/shr by 2016, up from $4/shr today #sohn— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG should gen consistent 5% organic growth. Key competitors are doing 4-7% organic growth.— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG should have a 24% ebit margin, up from 19% today, just via cost savings. 52-54% gross margin potential. COGS product should be 3.5%-4%— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG Core SGA should be ~11%, vs current 14.4% says Ackman. Company says it should be 14.1% #sohn— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
Colgate is the closest comp to PG says Pershing. Could have same GMs despite 1/5 the size #sohn— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG could issue debt at Apple like spreads, retire meaningful # of shares. Pershing working w company on efficiencies, buybacks succession— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
PG is taking steps and showing progress on cost saving plans, but not margin. Has done buybacks, & high FCF is growing. Nxt 2 or 3 Qs impt— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
If PG can earn $6, it deserves a 20 multiple by 2016. 26%IRR. Limited downside, with 18.8x depressed earnings and 3% yield— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013
Jeffrey Gundlach, known for his prescient call to short Apple (AAPL) from last year, took a shot at another highflier, Chipotle Mexican Grill (CMG). DoubleLine Capital's Gundlach said that Chipotle is a good short, as he hates the chart but loves the product. Gundlach, who made several jokes during the presentation to the crowd's delight, also said to avoid insurance companies because of quantitative easing.
QE will lead to lower insurance premiums across huge board. As QE persists, insurance cos should be avoided #sohn2013— Chris Ciaccia (@Chris_Ciaccia) May 8, 2013Gundlach also had other short ideas, including French bonds, saying "the French are a basket case" avoiding bank deposits, and gold.

Jose Mourinho has revealed he will be supporting Chelsea when they take on the conquerors of the Portuguese's Real Madrid, Bayern Munich, in the Champions League final, the Daily Telegraph has reported.
Mourinho managed Chelsea between 2004 and 2007, twice winning the Premier League title and reaching the semi-finals of the Champions League in 2005. But Mourinho was denied a reunion with his former club in this year's Champions League final when Bayern defeated Madrid in a penalty shootout after the two-legged tie finished 3-3 on aggregate. Both sides had one away goal to their name and could only be separated by spot kicks, Germany midfielder Bastian Schweinsteiger scoring the clinching effort.
Speaking after his side lost their semi-final, Mourinho said: "Chelsea mean a lot in my life and I would like them to win the final. John [Terry] is missing but Chelsea is there, which is the most important thing."
Bayern led 2-1 from the first-leg but two early Cristiano Ronaldo goals, one of which was a penalty, tilted the balance towards the Spaniards, before an Arjen Robben spot kick levelled the scores before half-time. Ronaldo went on to miss his penalty in the shootout as Bayern prevailed 3-1.

Anybody is free to cast their vote or voice their opinion. But to try and sway the outcome of a vote by padding the results does not say much about the person,especially if it is an elected official.Dissappointing to see this is the kind of person representing the people of a district. But then again,that's the type of baffoons that seem to get elected in Mt.Pearl.

Both Lane and Kent are looking for ways to gain favour with the Premier. Considering that former Premier Williams had no time what so ever for Kent as he saw him as a true political opportunist who went from Alliance, Reform, Liberal then Tory just to get a seat; he will do anything to get into a Cabinet position. Sure he even referred to working hard in "HIS" department when defending his action on local radio. The last time I checked it was Minister Hutchings Department and Steve was secretary. Come on Steve, getting a little ahead of yourself are we? If it wasn't for the support of former member Harvey Hodder Lane would still be sitting in Centennial Square.

Perhaps the Telegram should follow the CBC's lead and not refer to these votes as polls. In fact the CBC goes so far as to note that they are not scientific polls. Perhaps the Telegram should take some responsibility in the fiasco.

So their own BlackBerry messages are unknown sources? Oh my. No hope. From his CBC interviews, I don't think he mentioned one thing that he actually does for the big bucks we're paying him. It sounded like a typical day was to go into the office, check his emails, goose the polls and then maybe some unspecified constituency work. I want my sales tax back! Obviously Paul Lane is only playing games and not doing anything important and if I had it to spend in my community at least it would be contributing to the economy.

A person can be charged with fraud,ie., intentional deceit, but a politician who intentionally deceives the public can't be charged ?. There's something wrong with that picture. Fraud is not fraud when it's committed by a politician ?. Fraud is not fraud when it's only the public that's been defrauded ?. It's high time to wipe the smirks off the faces of politicians who deceive the public and then shrug it off, when exposed, by simply saying that other politicians also do it. Perhaps with this recent display of deception by Paul Lane, steps should be taken to put a stop to it.

Writes Kalim Kassam:
Did you catch the great moment of awkward live family drama on Morning Joe? This is how the Huffington Post describes it:
Most Joe Scarborough attempts to ask for Brzezinski's daughter Mika's hand in marriage or something by insisting that "you cannot blame what's going on in Israel on the Bush administration." This prompted Zbig to reply, "You know, you have such a stunningly superficial knowledge of what went on that it's almost embarrassing to listen to you."
Burn! Anyway, things grew only more awkward from there, as Scarborough batted the insult hither and yon, while Mika rolled around in her chair, totally chagrined. The show finally, mercifully, cuts to commercial (over the strains of Stevie Wonder's "Superstitious" — apparently the closest thing the producers had to "superficial'). At that point, Scarborough directed Mika to give her father six dollars to make the mean man go away.
UPDATE Thanks to Nick Badalamenti for the video of this great moment.3:24 pm on December 30, 2008 Email Llewellyn H. Rockwell, Jr.

If it feels like it has been particularly soggy this year, you're not imagining things.
Between snow and rain, Chicago — and much of the rest of Illinois — has doubled the amount of precipitation it typically experiences in any given year by March 10.
That's good news for the state's farmers, getting set to plant corn in early April; but not so good for folks near swelling rivers — or one neighborhood in Dolton Monday, where the rains forced some evacuations.
"It's a mess," said Valeria Stubbs, 54, who helped her aunt move out of a Dolton home. "They've got three feet of water in the basement, [it's] surrounding the house. There's debris everywhere."
Typically, Chicago receives about 4.3 inches of precipitation by this point in the year, according to the National Weather Service. This year, the total is 8.18 inches at O'Hare Airport, the weather service reported. The story is similar in the southwestern suburb of Romeoville, where the weather service recorded 7.8 inches, compared with the typical 4.6 inches. In Rockford, there's been 7.8 inches of the wet stuff this year — compared with a typical 4.6 inches for the year to date.
High temperatures for the next few days are expected to hover near or slightly below the average for this time of year — in the lower 40s. In case you've forgotten, we shattered all kinds of records in mid-March, with highs hitting 80 degrees and hotter for eight days last year. It was perhaps a harbinger of things to come, with a ferociously hot and dry summer that left crops baking and shriveling in fields in Illinois and across much of the United States.
John Hawkins, an Illinois Farm Bureau spokesman, is cautiously optimistic about this year's crops — in part because of the heavy snow and rains in 2013.
"We had OK soil moisture [last year] but we didn't have a super abundance, and so when we got into the middle of the summer and we had high heat and absolutely no rain, it was like taking a straw and sucking all of the moisture out of the ground," Hawkins said.
Nationally, climatologists caution that this year's moisture doesn't signal the end of the stubborn drought still gripping more than half the continental United States. What happens in the next couple of months, they say, could be more telling. That's when the frozen ground will thaw and water that had been running off into the Mississippi or Missouri Rivers and their tributaries could sink in.
For his part, Hawkins is predicting a decent crop of corn and soy beans this year.
"I'm not looking for any bumper crop, but if I were a betting man, I would be average or close to average ...," Hawkins said.
