Neglected Diseases - Kala Azar
Kala Azar is a deadly, yet treatable parasitic disease which affects half a million people a year across the world. It is endemic in many parts of India and east Africa, including the Pokot region of northwest Kenya, where international medical charity Médecins Sans Frontières (MSF) has had great success with a treatment programme. But lack of access to information and adequate medical care in much of Kenya allows Kala Azar to kill thousands of people every year.

Soul Surfer [video]
I just want to say: How often does the opportunity come to rhyme "island" and "Thailand"? You have to appreciate these things when they come.
Hop [video]
The hunt for bin Laden may be over, but let's not forget: Hop is still in theaters, and will soon be coming to DVD.
It's like the terrorists have already won.
For a second opinion, see my "Reel Faith" co-host David DiCerto's 30-second review.
Me in My Union Suit!
Okay, technically that's misleading since it isn't really my Union suit: I rented this Yankee soldier uniform from the helpful folks at the Party Stop & Costume Corner in Westfield, NJ for this 30-second review of the Civil War-era film The Conspirator. I really dug the film, and I had a lot of fun doing this review. Enjoy!
"They slaughtered hundreds of people!"
He slaughtered at least five of them.
I've gotten a number of queries about the fevered discussion about Opus Dei's murderous history and sinister influence in the Church related by filmmaker Roland Joffé in the press conference I reported on a couple of weeks ago.
Exactly how did the conversation go? For your shock and amusement, here's the full exchange as Joffé related it. The discussion begins with Joffé mentioning that he's making a film about Opus Dei.
Friend: Oh my God, that's a Fascist organization! I mean, they slaughtered hundreds of people!
Joffé: They have? Really? How do you know that?
F: Well, even if they haven't, they're extremely influential in the Church. I mean, they basically control the Church.
J: How would they control the Church?
F: They control the cardinals and the pope.
J: They hypnotize them? How do they do it?
F: They do it through the cardinals.
J: How many cardinals are in Opus Dei?
F: Hundreds.
J: Well, how many cardinals are there [in the world]?
F: I don't know, but lots and lots of them are definitely in Opus Dei.
J: Well, I think there may be one or two, or maybe in three.
F: Well, that's what I'm saying—that's the way it works. It's all kept secret.
J: Well, okay. Anything else?
F: Bishops. Lots and lots of bishops. How do you account for all these bishops in Opus Dei?
J: How many bishops are in Opus Dei?
F: Well, I don't know—thousands of bishops …
Apparently it went downhill from there.
I don't think any further commentary is needed, do you? As Pat Archbold put it recently, we hold certain untruths to be self-evident.

Lines I Wish I Had Written: Hop
It's not often that I encounter a Line I Wish I Had Written right in the headline of a review, but here's a case in point.Tim Brayton, who blogs at Antagony & Ecstasy, kicks off his cathartic (though also occasionally obscene) review of Hop with the brilliant headline:
Abandon All Hop, Ye Who Enter Here
That headline isn't the only quotable bit from Tim's review. Here's how he opens:
I will assume that you have been unable to avoid the omnipresent advertisements for Hop, and that you have formed an opinion of it. I will further assume that you have anything like taste, and that your opinion is not positive. In fact, I suspect that you think Hop looks bad - absolutely dreadful, even. If that's the case, your expectations are too high.
This tracks exactly with my thoughts while watching the movie (and it's not the only line in Tim's review that does): Coming out of the theater, I texted Suz that as bad as the trailers made it look, the movie was worse.
Oh, I love this line too:
[T]here's an eye-brow raising moment when Papa Bunny (Hugh Laurie) makes note of Easter's 4000 years of tradition, a calculation that makes the baby Jesus cry. And indeed, every other iteration of Jesus as well.

The Jesuses that Pat Forgot!
My esteemed colleague Pat Archbold's lively and engaging post on big-screen Jesuses has obliged me to add a few notes of my own (with apologies for the post title joke—I don't really think Pat "forgot" anything, since his list wasn't meant to be exhaustive in the first place, and certainly mine isn't either).
Judging from Pat's combox, the best big-screen Jesus for a lot of people is either Robert Powell of Jesus of Nazareth or Jim Caviezel of The Passion of the Christ. I think there's a lot to be said for both, although obviously no actor could truly do Jesus justice, and both performances have weak spots in my opinion.
Powell aptly conveys authority, fire and tenderness, but there are moments, particularly during miracle sequences, when, to quote Mike Hertenstein of Flickerings.com, Powell's "Jedi-like histrionics" are a bit much. As for Caviezel, he embodies the Suffering Servant of the Passion narratives as well as any actor could, I think—yet he's less convincing, at least to me, in the crucial flashback sequences as the New Moses of the Sermon on the Mount and the High Priest of the Last Supper. (On the other hand, both films have utterly flawless Blessed Virgins, in my opinion: I can find no fault in either Olivia Hussey or Maia Morgenstern.)
Winter's Bone [video]
Paying tribute to Winter's Bone in a 30-second rhyming review presented some challenges. I decided to riff on one of the bluegrass songs in the film, although without instruments (and with only 30 seconds to get it out) I had to make some adjustments to the rhythm and melody.
Watch the video at NCRegister.com >
The last two lines were a last-minute change that I'm somewhat ambivalent about. "We'll understand it better by and by" refers to the title of the gospel hymn by Rev. Charles A. Tindley played over the end credits. I like the allusion to the hymn, but I'm not sure I should have changed the last two lines, which originally ran, "It's not for the faint of heart / But there's grace and beauty in this work of art." This was maybe better because it gave critically helpful information (the content is pretty rough but treated in a redemptive way). The new lines are more of an homage and less of a review, which is okay, but I'm thinking it would be better to keep it critical where possible.
More to come!
New on Home Video: 3/29/2011
This week's home-video releases include Disney's charming Tangled (buy) and an anniversary celebration of Cecil B. DeMille's magnum opus The Ten Commandments (buy), along with "Charlton Heston Presents the Bible."
A passel of Disney sports films come to Blu-ray: Miracle (buy), The Rookie (buy), Remember the Titans, The Greatest Game Ever Played (buy), Invincible. Paramount has rereleased a pair of Audrey Hepburn classics, Sabrina (buy) and Roman Holiday (buy). Other new releases or rereleases, some seen and some unseen by me, include Black Swan, King of Kings, The Spiderwick Chronicles (buy), The Secret of NIMH and The Human Experience.
With Tangled, Disney finally takes on the Rapunzel story, with winning results. An ingenuous and personable heroine, a dashing rogue, a twisted villainess, and an extremely conscientious horse make for a sparkling tale with heart, wit and swashbuckling action. It's not a perfect film, and the climax is a bit of a letdown, but the fun along the way is definitely worth the trip.
I'm a fan of Blu-ray/DVD combo editions, whether or not you have a Blu-ray; there's also a Blu-ray/DVD set that includes a 3D version of the film, but 3D for television hasn't arrived yet in my opinion. Whichever Blu-ray edition you get, the highlight of the bonus features is a 12-minute making-of featurette called "UnTangled: The Making of a Fairy Tale" that goes into character design, the lantern sequence, the animation of Rapunzel's 70 feet of hair and Disney history trivia.
Celebrating its 55th anniversary, The Ten Commandments is newly available in three editions, a DVD edition, a 2-disc Blu-ray edition and a 6-disc Blu-ray/DVD Gift Set. The best new bonus feature is a 75-minute making-of documentary "The Ten Commandments: Making Miracles" that's on the DVD set and the 6-disc Blu-ray/DVD Gift Set, but not the 2-disc Blu-ray edition. The best previously available extra is DeMille's original 1923 silent version of The 10 Commandments — for film buffs a must-see thanks to the awesome sets and the spectacular Jell-O parting of the Red Sea — which is only available on the 6-disc mega-edition, making that the edition to get.
I haven't had a chance to see "Charlton Heston Presents the Bible." (buy), a set of four documentaries now available as a 4-disc set from Warner Bros. The series comprises "Genesis," "The Story of Moses," "Jesus of Nazareth" and "The Passion."
Inception [video]
Back from a week in Spain! More to come this week on Of Gods and Men, once I catch my breath—and catch up on a few other things—but for now here's my 30-second look at Inception. Enjoy!

New on Home Video: 3/8/2011
This week's home video releases include two ambitious animated films from Studio Ghibli, an ambitious Arthurian saga and a modest but essential religious family classic that should be in everyone's home library, especially at Easter season.
New on DVD, Tales From Earthsea (buy) is the directorial debut of Goro Miyazaki, son of legendary Studio Ghibli co-founder Hayao Miyazaki. Tales from Earthsea isn't remotely the classic that is the elder Miyazaki's Nausicaa of the Valley of the Wind (buy), newly available in a two-disc Blu-ray/DVD combo edition, but there are resonances between the two works, and Goro's film, flawed though it is, shows promise.
Also in a new two-disc Blu-ray/DVD combo edition is The Miracle Maker (buy), a minor masterpiece of stop-motion animation that's one the best films ever made on the life of Jesus, and indispensable Easter viewing at our house. Indispensable, I say. If you haven't seen it, you don't know what you're missing. Trust me. I practically guarantee you'll be glad you did.
New on Blu-ray, much less essential: John Boorman's Excalibur (buy), a film that makes a real attempt at being the Arthurian classic that Hollywood never produced — and pretty much makes a mess of it, although it's a kind of interesting mess. It tries to honor as much of the Arthurian material as possible, but fails to make a coherent whole out of it. Still, if you're an Arthur buff, you may want to catch it.
Red Riding Hood: The Anti-Nativity Story?
Lots of Red Riding Hood reviews, including mine, made obvious connections to the Twilight films, the first of which was directed by Red Riding Hood director Catherine Hardwicke. It takes a mind like Peter Chattaway's to contemplate connections to Hardwicke's The Nativity Story — and conclude that Red Riding Hood is in some ways "the anti-Nativity Story."
In addition to the obvious fact that "The Nativity Story pandered to Christian audiences while Red Riding Hood casts a basically negative light on the Church," Peter notes the following connections:
Hardwicke, a former production designer and art director, went out of her way to meticulously reconstruct first-century Palestinian life in The Nativity Story — to make it as "authentic" as possible — whereas Red Riding Hood feels very much like a movie that was shot indoors, in a studio, under artificial lights, even when people are supposed to be standing in broad daylight in the town square. I don't say this as a criticism — I think Hardwicke must have been trying pretty deliberately to give this film a quasi-artificial storybook fairy-tale feel rather than anything approaching historical naturalism — but it's still an interesting difference …
One less-obvious connection would be the fact that there is talk of an arranged marriage in Red Riding Hood, just as there was in The Nativity Story. I'm not sure if there are any others …
Oh, one other Nativity Story connection: Both films feature a scene in which people look at a model of the celestial spheres. (In The Nativity Story, it's the Magi interpreting "the star". In Red Riding Hood, it's Gary Oldman explaining the difference between a "blood moon" and a regular full moon.)

On the Air: Catholic Answers Live (3/11/2011)
Today on the first hour of "Catholic Answers Live" (6pm–7pm EST), I'll be talking about Of Gods and Men; Red Riding Hood; Rango; The Adjustment Bureau and more. Listen live!
Of Gods and Men – [video]
Don't worry—no joking around this time. Silliness is a hallmark of my 30-second reviews so far (most notably yesterday's The Social Network), but this film is different. Of Gods and Men—read my full-length review—is one of the most sublime films I've ever seen. This is a sincere tribute not only to Xavier Beauvois' film, but to the monks of the Tibhirine monastery itself—and while I do use rhyming verse, it's quite different from my usual approach.

New on DVD: 3/1/2011
Noteworthy home-video releases this week include one of the most grueling adult films of last year and one of the gentlest family films of all time.
Don't let James Franco's impression of a mannequin hosting the Academy Awards this Sunday put you off: His performance in 127 Hours (buy) richly deserves his Best Actor nomination. As real-life adventurer Aron Ralston, Franco spends nearly the whole film playing opposite a rock pinning his arm to a canyon wall in the Utah desert, but his volatile performance — and Danny Boyle's flamboyant direction — make for a riveting, cathartic experience.
Also not to be missed is Disney's Bambi (buy), newly available in "Diamond Edition" Blu-ray and DVD editions. I just watched it with all six of my kids last night, and it's as magical a ever.
Why I'm glad The King's Speech won…
…even though I liked True Grit better.
Helena Bonham Carter, Colin Firth and Geoffrey Rush in The King's Speech
Last night at the Academy Awards, my favorite film of 2010, True Grit, went 0 for 10, winning none of the impressive lineup of nominations it had garnered including best picture, director, actor, supporting actress and adapted screenplay. (Read full Oscar coverage.)
Ace cinematographer Roger Deakins, nominated eight times before without winning, lost a ninth nomination, this time to Wally Pfister for Inception. And for my money 13-year-old Hailee Steinfeld deserved the supporting actress award for her uncanny poise and self-assurance and her ability to hold the screen against Jeff Bridge and Matt Damon—all while effortlessly wrapping her mouth around the screenplay's archaic language. (By the time Melissa Leo got through her rambling, cringe-inducing acceptance speech, with its bleeped f-bomb, I suspect some Academy members regretted not voting for Steinfeld.)
And yet, I'm glad that the evening's big winner was The King's Speech. Although not necessarily a better film than True Grit, it's a very good film of a kind that we desperately need, and one in desperately short supply in mainstream cinema: a good, wholesome film about good, wholesome people. The wholesomeness of these characters and their milieu is something lacking in many of the year's best films, including Inception, The Social Network, Winter's Bone and even True Grit.
On the Air: Reel Faith Oscar Special; Kresta
Tune in this weekend for a one-hour Oscar special of Reel Faith, in which David DiCerto and I discuss our predictions and favorites as well as snubs and such. Airtimes are Saturday, February 26th at 8pm & 11pm & Oscar Sunday, February 27th at 6am, 9am, 2pm and 6pm. You can catch the broadcast online at the NET homepage; not sure when the episode will be posted at the Reel Faith website. (If you haven't caught our last episode, now's the time.)
Also, this afternoon around 5:40pm EST I'll be on Al Kresta discussing the transcendent film Of Gods and Men, which opens this weekend in NY and LA. (I wouldn't be surprised if he brings up spiritual themes at the Oscars too.
Spiritual themes at the Oscars?
Colin Firth and Helena Bonham Carter in The King's Speech
The Academy Awards are upon us, and the two top contenders for major awards—The King's Speech and True Grit—are both excellent films with significant moral and/or spiritual overtones. In fact, Lisa Respers France at CNN.com's Religion Blog suggests that many of this year's Oscar nominees have "deeply spiritual overtones."
As an aside, last year's most profoundly and transcendently religious film—conspicuously not nominated by the Academy, though it's won lots of other awards, including the jury prize at Cannes—makes its American debut this weekend in New York and Los Angeles: Of Gods and Men. If you live anywhere in the New York or Los Angeles area, go see it. This weekend. I'm not kidding. I'll write more about it soon (and I'll be talking about it this afternoon on Kresta around 5:40 EST), but for now the best mainstream take on it I've seen is Kenneth Turan's (LATimes.com).
Citing a number of writers and teachers whose work links faith and film, France argues that the current crop of Oscar nominees "explore themes that many contain elements of spirituality":
Best films of 2010: More lists
My 2010 year-end piece and top 10/20 films has been up for a few weeks, and with the Academy Awards upon us we're almost ready to be finished with the movie year 2010. Before turning the page entirely, though, I'd like to draw attention to a few more year-end lists worth noting.
Earlier this month, Christianity Today Movies & TV released its two annual top 10 lists, the Most Redeeming Films and Critics' Choice Awards, both of which I vote in.
From the top, the 2010 CT Movies & TV Critics' Choice winners are …:
New on DVD: 2/22/11
This week, one of my favorite films of 2010 is available on DVD and Blu-ray: Aaron Schneider's Get Low (buy), a loosely fact-inspired Depression-era comedy-melodrama starring Robert Duvall as an eccentric Tennessee backwoodsman who decides to throw himself a "funeral party" while he's still alive. Duvall is Duvall, of course, but the whole cast is terrific: Bill Murray, Sissy Spacek, Lucas Black, Bill Cobbs.
Also new this week, DreamWorks' Megamind (buy) is a rare Will Ferrell movie I can actually enjoy, and a surprisingly entertaining Superman spoof, with Brad Pitt as a man of steel with feet of clay and Tina Fey in the spunky gal-reporter role.
And don't overlook Last Train Home (buy), an eye-opening documentary that takes the enormous human migration that occurs every year in China when urban workers go home for Chinese New Year as a point of departure for exploring Chinese culture today.
Finally, since I was too busy last week to note it, last week's DVD releases include Waiting For "Superman" (buy), David Guggenheim's thought-provoking documentary on the current state of public education, and Unstoppable (buy), a Tony Scott action-fest pitting Denzel Washington and Chris Pine against a runaway train.
The 2011 Arts & Faith Top 100 Films!
The Passion of Joan of Arc (Carl Dreyer, 1927)
As a longtime member of the Arts & Faith community, I'm pleased to report that this week Arts & Faith and Image Journal released the 2011 edition of the Arts & Faith Top 100 Films list—possibly the best edition of the list to date, and in many ways an improvement on last year's list.
For some background on the Arts & Faith Top 100 as well as Arts & Faith and Image Journal—along with some perspective on why I think this year's list may be the best—please see my essay "Reading the Eternities: The 2011 Arts & Faith Top 100," the official introduction to this year's list. (Some trends I'm pleased to see include more Golden Age Hollywood titles (and more English titles generally; last year's list was pretty thin on English title), a number of animation titles and more documentaries.)
Here I'd like to flesh in some of the details I didn't have space to discuss in that essay.
I'm Back!
Several weeks ago (but only five updates back) ago I mentioned I would be scarce through all of January, and for most of last month I hoped that life would return to normal by Groundhog Day or so.
Alas, my January crunch overran most of February. For the last several months I've been working harder than probably at any time in my life since graduate school. (Too busy, actually … it's taken a toll on my health, alas.)
Now, though, it's finally over — which means I'm going back to being only ordinarily super-busy. (For starters, I've got two article deadlines next week, in addition to whatever screenings I attend and whatever I hope to write here at Decent Films and NCRegister.com.) But that's okay! Ordinary super-busyness, I can handle.
What this means is that content will begin appearing more frequently here at Decent Films and NCRegister.com, starting tomorrow (Friday, 2/18). I'll be writing for other venues too — stay tuned.
Also, if you've written to me in the past few months, I may have missed your email entirely. I apologize, and will try to catch up over the next month or so.
A number of readers have inquired about what I've been spending my time on lately.
Part of the answer can be found on my updated "About" page, which now notes that I have "contributed several entries to the New Catholic Encyclopedia, including 'The Church and Film' and a number of filmmaker biographies."
The "Church and Film" entry is a few years old, but the others are new. I've been researching and writing about Cecil B. DeMille, Leo McCarey, François Truffaut and Franco Zeffirelli. This has been hard work but very rewarding. Besides the privilege of writing for the New Catholic Encyclopedia, I've learned a lot, and watched or rewatched a lot of great films. (Yes! I plan to write about some of them in the coming months!)
Beyond that, I've screened a couple of films, and attended a junket (my first in years) that I'll be reporting on soon. And there's another piece that I just finished this morning that I'll announce in a bit.
Anyway, now that that's done, I plan to start making up for lost time here at Decent Films. Maybe not quite as energetically as I'd like — in part because I also need to make up for lost time with my family, who've done without me more often than any of us would like, and partly also because I need some rest, frankly.
But I'm not taking time off. I will be back tomorrow. And for all who've asked, I will do my best to review The King's Speech in time for the Oscars.
Thanks for your patience, and see you around.
Happy New Year!
2010 was a good year for Decent Films, though there's room for improvement in 2011. I do want to let readers know I may be scarce (not absent!) for most of January, as I'm laboring under some major deadlines for a couple of exciting projects (more to come). My 2010 roundup and top 10 is coming, of course, and I hope to come roaring back in February. I also hope to announce some new developments for the site in the near future. God bless you all!

Our new Evil Surgeon Morphsuit is a great idea for Halloween that's sure to spook people with its menacing design.
Costume includes:
- Jumpsuit
The Evil Surgeon Morphsuit is a spandex bodysuit designed and manufactured to withstand many outings on Halloween and throughout the year.
The design features a turquoise body in the style of surgical scrubs, silver forearms and white socks, gloves and face mask. There's also a splattered blood effect throughout the costume for added horror.
So what are Morphsuits? Morphsuits are a unisex all-in-one spandex suit that cover the whole of your body from head to toe. They have been specially designed so that you can breathe through them, see through them, drink through them (only water of course!), and even better nobody can see you.
If needed you can easily free your head by unzipping and pulling the hood forward.
There are a number of imitation "Morphsuits" currently on the market however these imitations have proved to be badly made and never last long. The Official Morphsuit far excels these fakes in quality and durability.
Stand out from the crowd at festivals, stag-do's, football games and more. The list of possibilities for a Morphsuit is endless.
So, now you know about how it works and its superior quality, all you need to decide is what colour are you going to wear and what will you do in it?

Céad mile fáilte romhat! The 39th Annual Naples St. Patrick's Day Parade will take place on Saturday, March 14th, 2015 at 11:00 a.m.. Be sure to join us for the traditional flag raising ceremony at Crayton Cove at 9:30 a.m. to kick off the parade.
Once again, as organizers of The Parade, we are working hard to put together the 2015 Parade and events. Since its start in 1978, The Parade has grown in leaps and bounds! It is planned by a small group of volunteers who regard their efforts to be a labor of love and believe that this year The Parade promises to be better than ever!
Interestingly enough the Chamber of Commerce and City Events Department tell us that The Parade is the most asked about event in Naples each year.
The 2015 Parade Application will be available January 1st 2015
The parade staging area and beginning of the parade will be at Saint Ann's Church in Old Naples. The parade travels down 3rd Street South to 5th Avenue, then goes down 8th Street South to end at Crayton Cove.

Made of 2x3 channel and once i have the inspection plate I will bolt it on with large washers on the inside. It also bolts on the 4 rudder screws.
The inspection plate I got was from Austin Kayak for $3.49 and a hatch costs $38.99 and just get the inspection plate unless you need to open it for more stuff. I would post a link, but they would probably remove it. It does not show under hatches but put Sea-lect inspection in the search and it will come up.

Putting a motor (even an electric trolling motor) on a boat (kayak) in NY State, makes it a Motor Vehicle.
That means a trip to DMV, to get a registration.
When you get there, they will require a Hull Identification Number (HIN)
Most kayaks are sold without one, it is relatively easy to get a HIN for one you just bought, but good luck with a discontinued model, or even a current model that you bought last year.
I suggest that you get your HIN, before you build your motor-mount.
Half the reason I want it watch guys down here crabbing with Hobie or the electric Ocean Kayaks. I am sure it will help me cover more ground with the fish finder in the early season to find the schools to target.

Andy, to whom did you bring the pencil tracing? DMV? I am about to go through this process - from my understanding with the parks dept. if the vessel already has a 12 digit serial number or manufacturer's number, then that is the HIN. The form for registration requires the HIN. What is the point of the pencil tracing? To prove you own the boat? In my case I would have a transferable registration and / or title so I think I am all set, just not sure.

Idk how its like in other state but in CT as soon as you put a motor on anything you need to register it.
What you need is:
1.) Bill or Sale
a.) If you have no bill of sale you need notarized affidavit stating that you purchase kayak and unable to obtain Bill of sale and to your knowledge the kayak has never been registers
2.) Boat Safety Certification (10 Hour Course)
3.) Registation with DMV to get you registration number and stickers
4.) If you plan on using this at night time or at dusk youou will need your navigation lights. Red\ Green up front and 360 white in rear. Its a good thing to have for your safety also you can get a ticket for not having it. I got stopped by the coast guard while fishing on the Thames River. Pretty Scary with their huge machine gun.
Here is a picture of my mount for my Minn Kota motor. i steer with with foot pedals and can also raise the motor completely out of water and lower the motor.The speed controls ( 5 Forward, Off and 3 Reverse) are control by a switch i have mounted on my center hatch.
I used 10 awg marine grade wires.
I chose the Island Hopper series so that I could side mount it. I like it, but my flushmounts face out from each other, so it became a hassle sliding these mounts in and out easily. Overall, it worked well and felt secure but th rods and counterweight seems to complicate things a bit.
This next mount was copied from Tom Kirkman1's YouTube feeds "Hobie mounts". Pretty simple to make and can be tweaked some more for stability.

Easy Cheesy Artichoke Dip in a Baguette
If you're getting ready for Memorial Day festivities, this Easy Cheesy Artichoke Dip in a Baguette needs to be on your table. It's incredible and so quick to prepare. Along with the recipe, I thought I'd share some stories from my recent trip to Rome, Florence, and Paris, beginning with this account of the Roman metro.
The Colosseum, the Eiffel Tower, and the Sistine Chapel were staggering, yes. But one of the most surprising cultural experiences for me during my two-week travels in Europe was riding on the metro (cue the Berlin song.)
Despite living in a city with limited public transportation options, I'm not a total metro newb. I've ridden the metro in San Francisco, Washington D.C., and… well, okay, maybe that's it. But still, those are big cities! I wouldn't expect to be too surprised by a subway system at this point. However, I've never experienced anything like the metro in Rome.
In Rome, people press together like sardines (or like a panino? Bad Italy joke?) to fit into the train car in the morning. I don't just mean they're crowded: I mean they're PRESSED TOGETHER, body-on-body, tall people hovering over short people, like a subterranean human jigsaw puzzle.
My first hint that the Roman metro was going to be a unique experience came when a train pulled up and the doors opened to reveal a nearly overflowing car. Two girls walked right up and inexplicably merged with this wall of people to get onboard.
I thought these two women were just particularly driven (late for work, maybe?), but when we got on the next train, a sea of people pushed in behind us. Like, full-body pushing against full body. I had a few moments where I wondered if anyone had ever fallen and been trampled on the Roman subway (something to Google? Maybe I better not) before I was shoved into the back of a nicely suited Italian businessman. Later, when the train had emptied a bit and I had peeled myself away, he would avoid eye contact as I shot him apologetic glances. I guess this was an everyday occurrence for him? He was handsome, at least.
Even after I was able to unglue myself a few stops in, I spent the rest of the ride clinging to a pole, virtually in the armpit of a tattooed gentleman that was thankfully also handsome and well-groomed. I'd like to extend a very hearty thank you to him for using deodorant that day, and for choosing interesting skin art for me to enjoy during my ride. Also, thank you to Rome as a whole for providing me with such an entertaining experience.

Easy Cheesy Artichoke Dip in a Baguette
Recipe by: Willow Bird Baking
Yield: 6 servings
My mother-in-law makes the best artichoke dip with only 3 ingredients! I stuffed it into a baguette for easy eating. It makes the perfect party food, and you'll be amazed by how good it is!
1 loaf French bread (mine was about a foot long and 3″ wide)
3 tablespoons melted butter
1 cup mayonnaise
1 (8-ounce) can chopped artichokes
1 cup shredded Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F and line a baking sheet with aluminum foil. Slice the French bread lengthwise into two halves and gently tear out excess bread, forming a well down the center of each half. Brush both halves with the melted butter and place them on the prepared baking sheets. In a medium bowl, mix mayonnaise, artichokes, and cheese. Salt and pepper to taste. Fill both loaf halves with the mixture and bake for 20 minutes or until melted and browning. Serve immediately by slicing into 1-inch slices (or you can serve with buttery Club crackers, or both!)

Five Part Chinese Sisters
I had big plans today to upload tons of recipes and photos and write a blog. It's 11:43 pm and I'm just starting my work day. It's a hard day. Officially diagnosed with Alzheimer's earlier in the afternoon, my mother struggles to find the words and courage to tell me and my sister Leilani. My sister Terri has already called to break the results of the testing. She asks us to wait for mom to tell us before we say anything. The four of us sit with watering eyes and aching hearts. Sister Dawn calls while we're struggling with the situation. She's working and can't join us. Sister Jeanette is on the way back from Florida. We'll speak tomorrow.

Life at a Glance
Like many in Seattle, I have trouble realizing it is June. June 21st, even. The longest day of the year. A record 3 days of sunshine in a row barely breaks 70 degrees. My equilibrium is off; until now life is suspended in perpetual March dreariness. People make small talk about the amount of vitamin D they are main-lining. Me, I've been working and working. Coming home at about midnight the other night, I catch a glimpse of roses blooming by the gate. I tell myself that I should 'stop and smell the roses' and take this photo. It isn't about the clarity of the shot, it is about the need to truly savor the moments.
"Apocalypse Now, More than Ever"
My friend Harvey is a poet, writes hybrids of political haiku and Subaru bumper sticker. The title of this blog is from a collection of his I recently read. It stands out in my mind, "Apocalypse Now, More than Ever." The news of nuclear meltdown in Japan after earthquakes and tsunami. Volcanos. Tornadoes. Heat waves. Forest fires. My equalibrium is thrown off kilter. I'm glad to be working, glad to have 400 people to feed this week. Nose to the grind, I can take a break from real time disaster and heartbreak. Cooking is my escape, my oasis in time and space.
Jane Eyre, Corn Chowder, Yom Kippur and Larry
I'm a person of books. Busy as of late, I miss long hours of turning pages, losing myself in other worlds and other lives. I love to read. There are books for every facet of life, books for every season of every life. I haven't been able to keep every book I've read. Cumbersome as I move from city to city, neighborhood to neighborhood, many end up at the Goodwill bin or left by swimming pools at sunny resorts. Words, like casual acquaintances, leave an impression and recede in memory.

"Eternal Soup" ~ I'm Mortified!
It's been a crazy week. Event after event, we pull long days to positive reviews. As a member of the sandwich generation, I manage calls to my mother and a quick visit erev Shabbat. Sadly, I fear she may succumb to Alzheimer's as has her sister. I feel compelled to check in on her more often. She frequently calls me at work and I don't know what she is talking about. Of course, my mother has a propensity to pick up very odd tidbits off the TV and try to repeat them to me. Something has to be lost in the translation; the world can't be that weird.
My four sisters keep the email chain going with their accounts of my mother's situation. We brace against the uncertainty of the future. Watching the Larry King special on Alzheimer's last week, I am nervous to hear that symptoms may present even at 55 years of age. We're all fair game. Once, my daughters and I are visiting my mom. As she is saying something my eldest turns to face me and silently mouths, "you're next". Thanks.
Aviva, whom I share custody with my ex Marty, seems to have spent more time at my place over the last few months. Since she is driving and can remember my pin number, I let her do the grocery shopping on occasion. Works for me; I live in grocery stores. She mostly makes good choices selecting broccoli, Nutella and chips. I'm into fusion cooking: Nutella on flour tortillas. It is sort of like a crepe, right? I even see on TV that it a healthy breakfast choice. Anyway, shopping gives her a sense of being in control, responsible and grown up. Always a proponent of self-service child rearing, I applaud her attempt at proving her independence.
Recently told by a good friend that Marty and I are the poster children for divorced couples, I take complaints by Aviva against the other household with a grain of salt. Aviva has definite ideas of right and wrong. As of late, she's been ranting about the food at Marty's. Animated and full of hyperbole, she declares that her father doesn't look at fruit and buys it already rotten. There is nothing but beans to eat. I remind her that I worked all through high school at the Pike Place Market. I remind her that I'm a caterer. I tell her that her complaints must be exaggerated. She tells me, "Mom, you wear gloves when you cook...at home!"
I've been aware (and envious) that Marty and Charla's kitchen is undergoing renovations as of late. Hearing Aviva protest about the stressful food preparations over the months, even I break and email Marty asking what idiot he hired who needed 6 months to remodel a kitchen. Finally, it is done and the ranting has ceased, more or less.
Back to my relaxing weekend. Shabbos is great; nap and more nap. By the end that nears 9:40 pm, I'm driving to Seward Park in pouring rain to pick up Aviva from Marty's. Why she can't stay until morning I haven't a clue. Today, leisurely going through the week's mail, I come across The JTNews, Seattle's local Jewish bimonthly. I see that Marty's column, "A View from the U" is in this issue. We may be divorced but I still appreciate his wit and odd perspective, somewhat irreverent as it is.
This week's title is "Eternal Soup".....(http://www.jtnews.net/index.php?/columnists/item/8359/C6/)
Okay, I'm dying! "This miraculous soup cooks up for Shabbos and, like the lechem panim (the "Bread of the Presence") of the Temple, that stayed fresh from Shabbos to Shabbos, grows tastier as the week unfolds." This is the best description in the entire article. I'm mortified. I'm ashamed by extension and even divorce doesn't redeem my unintentional co-conspirator status. What have I been allowing my kid to eat??! No wonder she has been at my house ranting. I'm embarrassed and humiliated....eternally ashamed. Marty, Marty........

SOLVED (mostly) #Kindle 3 instability, crashing, battery failure, losing charge: it's the leather cover!
I wrote up my problems here, and you can read the comments to follow the developments and line of thinking.
I have the following symptoms:
1) My Kindle frequently crashes upon wakeup from sleep
- I flick and release the power switch
- there is a long, long pause
- then a green LED shows
- and then the Kindle resets (watch the progress bar as it boots, etc)
2) My Kindle drains its battery at a horrifying rate; I am very careful to switch OFF the Wifi when not in use, but last night:
- I fully charged my Kindle
- disconnect it from power
- switched off Wifi
- read a book for about 30 minutes
- I flicked the power-switch off – the Kindle displayed one of its screensavers – and I went to sleep.
This morning I woke up, flicked the power switch on; the kindle crashed and reset, and the battery showed approximately 40% charge remaining.
3) My Kindle occasionally crashes/resets mid-reading, but crashes are far more common when "waking it up" after a few hours "off"
After a few interactions with Amazon I received a phone call from one of their tech guys – instigated by my demand for a replacement – requesting if I could try one more thing:
"Please remove the Amazon-brand leather cover that [I had] purchased for it."
If this sounds weird be aware that the cover attaches to the Kindle via two metal clips, and the mountpoints into which it clips are wired to the unit's battery; this is so that certain models of the Kindle cover can use the battery to power a LED reading light.
I do not have one of those covers but it seems that although my cover is passive something about the clips is causing leakage of current and consequent instability; this neatly explains why it could be apparently well-behaved all night and then crash spontaneously when I picked it up to start using it, and also explains the battery drain.
It was an instant fix – stability is back, but I am a still bit worried about the battery. It appeared not to take a full charge a couple of times since, but is now discharging so slowly it's hard to measure if it's been fritzed by this problem.
I am waiting for a callback from Amazon to find out what they intend to do about this matter – I shall be pressing for a Kindle replacement because I am not convinced of its ability to take a full charge, nor how much damage has been done to the battery cycle life. What to do about the cover I don't know – perhaps a refund and a slipcase?
I don't know if the lighted/active covers will suffer this problem – after all, they should be designed to offer electrical isolation?
how to cook the perfect soft-boiled duck egg
I have three kinds of neighbour: neighbours who are lovely, neighbours who are strange and insular and who don't interact with the world, and neighbours who have screaming matches with teenage children in the middle of the night, feel their gardens are best planted with beercans and broken glass, and who set fire to their houses for amusement – or possibly as an artistic statement, I'm not sure.
Amongst the lovely neighbours are Gem and Charlie, and amongst their lovely traits are of occasionally gifting me with duck and hen eggs that are laid by their flock; the duck eggs especially are huge, a soft blue-white (well, duh) and with yolks so yellow as to be almost tangerine. Yellow is simply not the word, unless prefixed by "deep cadmium".
Having experienced the birds at first hand I'd call the eggs "aggressively free range" given the fowls' single-minded pursuit of exploring my garden (memo to self: maybe it's about time you rebuilt the fence?) – but I forgive everything, everything, for the near erotic pleasure of these soft-boiled eggs on toast.
For me the perfect egg has a fully set white, and the heat is just starting to impinge on the yolk, thickening it to a syrup but without really setting it yet. Method:
Saucepan, three-quarters filled with water hot from the kettle. Pinch of salt. Serious heat on the hob. Boiling vigourously, tumults of hell-style.
Take up to two eggs (update: at room temperature) and for each work out which is the blunt, more rounded end. Using a substantial needle, pin or similar sharp point, drill a tiny hole in the blunt end. This allows the air-pocket to vent gas quickly without cracking the shell, when you drop the eggs into boiling water.
Set a timer; these timings are an estimate and subject to tweaking depending on egg-freshness, but they're approximately what I use:
- XL hen eggs: 4m20
- M duck eggs: 5m10
- L duck eggs: 5m40
Using a slotted spoon drop the eggs into the vigourously boiling water, and start the timer.
Make toast – Ideally fresh bread, butter at room temperature so it's spreadable. Don't faff about.
When the timer expires, use the spoon to remove the eggs.
DO NOT QUENCH THE EGGS IN COLD WATER – drop them straight into eggcups and serve immediately. Hack the top off and dip soldiers, or spoon the rich, unctuous goo over buttered toast, sprinkle salt and/or freshly grated pepper.
This works any time of day – with tea for breakfast, or a crisp white for a light, late dinner.
UPDATE: something different: poached goose egg, picture; if folk are interested in the method, let me know. [June 2012]
Brompton Carradice CarraDry Waterproof Bag Review
Since I got my Brompton about 3 years ago, I've used an S-bag for my regular commutes into London; it's been a good bag, but the design flaws in it were evident from early-on and have only gotten more annoying since.
The main problems were:
- The "shoulders" on the main bag opening, presumably meant to provide some structure to the bag when you pack-out the body, but actually preventing you from putting anything large into the bag.
- The geometry of the front flap, which bulges curiously when stuffed with items, and seems generally to rest on-top-of (rather than covering) the bag's body.
Example of the S-bag suffering bag-bloat:
This finally got to the point of vexing me, so I started to look for an alternative:
- the NEW brompton s-bag
- the brompton c-bag
- the NEW brompton t-bag (formerly "touring" pannier)
- the brompton o-bag (ortlieb)
- something else
This led to a bunch of research and decisions; my eventual decisions were:
- new S-bag? alas it's great for a light day-trip but still awkward and not big enough for my stuff; I like the s-bag style yellow lining, though.
- the C-bag? this was a really strong contender, not least because @bartbl has got one and i've been able to see it close-up; the yellow lining is a great idea, the materials good… but the waterproof zips worry me (i've seen things like that snag themselves closed, before) and there is an overall "chunkiness" to the materials and strap, which i didn't really like
- the t-bag? i also have a friend (@ids) who has one of these; they are huge and expandable, but the weird bulges, puffy netting and fabric roll-top have something of the fetish boudoir about them. Plus, I don't know if it's fair but to me the design smacks of "I'm going to get rained-upon and then take an age to dry-off, and I'll be dripping on the floor for ages".
- and finally, the o-bag? Stupid, stupid amounts of money, and not particularly larger than the S-bag.
So I was stuck.
I found a couple of fabulously useful reviews of the c-bag on the net, mentioning the Carradice City Folder bag in the process. Chris Rust's review of the City Folder bag sounded pretty rough, and from the pictures I would have agreed with him.
On a Canadian website (URL lost) I found discussion of the Carradice City Folder, including a video, and in the comments a reference to a waterproof version, this led me to the Carradice website, plus a few others, but I hadn't found any reviews of it.
When next in London I visited Velorution, went through all their Brompton bags, found one of these Carradice Carradry City Folder bags, and bought it on the spot.
To get to the meat of the purchasing decision:
- Large enough, comparible to C-bag
- Reasonable price
- Waterproof and easily wipeable
- Boxy, angular, and semi-rigid, but there's no impediment to putting stuff into it.
- Interior laptop-compartment large enough to take ancient Thinkpad, let alone Macbook Air.
- No waterproof external pocket for quick access to phone, wallet
- Internal laptop-compartment is permanently fixed; apparently in the non-waterproof version it is removable
- Topmost seam tends to rub on knuckles when carrying through the handles; loosening the bottom velcro helps somewhat.
- The center of the three built-in phone pockets is a bit awkward to use, since it velcros-over to shut the laptop compartment
There are mesh pockets on the CarraDry – two rear, one front, but Carradice's own people say that these are only fit for light items like gloves and so forth, and I'd agree.
I found this out because I managed to tear one of the mesh pockets from the corner, with the lightest of finger-touches, taking my phone out. The material "ran" and quite a rent appeared, but Carradice and Velorution replaced it immediately and Carradice suspected a manufacturing fault. The replacement bag's mesh pockets feel rather more coarse and stronger, so I'd agree.
Having experienced two bags I have found a minor random advantage that the first (faulty) bag had over the second: the centre phone-pocket is covered/closed by a strip of double-sided velcro. If that strip has fuzz on one side and hooks on the other then (assuming the bag is put together properly) you'll have more options for how you close the laptop compartment on top of it.
Unfortunately on my second bag, the strip is fuzzy on both sides, meaning that both the laptop compartment elasticated strip (hooks) and the pocket velcro (also hooks) will not stick together.
This is a small nit, though.
Overall I am very happy with the bag, and certain that I have bought the right bag for me. It's not my "perfect" brompton bag, but it's not far off.
How to join the French Foreign Legion
How to join the French Foreign Legion
Any man aged between 17 and 40 (although under-18s must have parental permission) can join the French Foreign Legion. You must travel to France for enlistment. According to its recruitment website, "Whatever your origins, nationality or religion might be, whatever qualifications you may or may not have, whatever your social or professional status might be, whether you are married or single, the French Foreign Legion offers you a chance to start a new life."
You can join either under your own name or under a "declared identity" which you will retain throughout your service. This is to allow anonymity for those who want to turn over a new leaf. In the past the Legion was extremely relaxed about the provenance of its new recruits – however there are now background checks to ensure that wanted criminals are not given sanctuary. If you are approved after your medical, security screening and " motivational checks" you will be eligible to sign your contract for a minimum of five years service. Your only realistic options for departure before then are death or desertion. You are entitled to 45 days' leave a year and will receive a starting salary of £723 a month
[ Editor's note: 15 August 2007 – I am closing comments on this posting since this blog is not actually a FFL recruiting website. Read the article linked at the top of this posting, guys. AM ]

Orangewood Christian's Jimmy Martin commits to Boston College, passing on Duke and FIU
Mainland Orangewood Christian fullback/linebacker Jimmy Martin committed to Boston College Wednesday night.
The 6-foot, 220-pounder is being recruited by Boston College as a linebacker and long-snapper, but he also maybe looked at to play fullback in the future.
"It feels like a lot of the stress is lifted off my back," Martin said. "I feel a lot more relieved and I'm excited to go up there in January. I'm ready. "
Martin picked Boston College over offers from Duke, FIU, Western Michigan and South Alabama.
Martin, who is being recruited by assistant coach Todd Fitch, attended Boston College camp earlier this month and liked it so much that the Eagles became his No. 1 choice almost immediately.
"I talked to Coach [Steve] Addazio and he said family is a big part of their program and it just felt right for me both academically and athletically," Martin said.
Martin, whose sister is a standout water polo player at Michigan, said he's hoping to get on the field early.
"They said that as a freshman I could get some playing time as the Will linebacker," Martin said. "They said they're recruiting classes this year and next year will be huge for them linebacker-wise because a lot of their players are leaving and it's a big opportunity for early playing time."

This is a video shot with one of the hosts of the BBC hit show TOP GEAR. His observations at 70,000 feet are inspiring to anyone concerned with our day-to-day world.
YouTube has some excellent videos of the earth from things like the U2 being flown at 70,000 feet. Like the iconic shot of Earth Rise from Apollo 8 (?), these vide's give you a sense of how delicate a place we live in. The atmosphere appears as a thin haze around the planet, hardly a breathful of air. It's beautiful and kind of horrifying all at once.

Kitchen Play contest. Then I spied a recipe for salmon and I thought, heck yeah, I've got leftover salmon from a post I haven't published yet.
The original recipe was for a salmon salad with a bearnaise sauce, but I was more in a taco state of mind. The sponsor of the contest is Safest Choice Eggs, so I needed eggs in the recipe, right? Those eggs are pasteurized, so they're perfectly safe for raw use. Pretty cool idea, hmmm?
So anyway, I decided to make a mayonnaise instead of a bearnaise with my eggs.
A long, long time ago I decided to jump out of an airplane. You know, with a parachute. For sport. And before we were allowed to jump, we all had to take a class that explained all the horrible things that could possibly go wrong, and what to do if one of those things happens.
Then the instructor explained that it's pretty rare for a student or new jumper to get hurt because they follow all the rules. If you're supposed to release the main chute and deploy the spare the student will do that because that's what you're supposed to do and you're scared out of you mind NOT to do what you're told.
My mayonnaise was sort of like that. I've made plenty of mayonnaises before. Whipping by hand, with a food processor, with a blender, or with a stick blender. I should be able to make mayonnaise in my sleep. It's been a while since I made any, but how much could I forget?
Yeah, well, I guess I must have forgotten something because the first few times I tried, it didn't work. And I made one heck of a mess. Let's just say that I have mayonnaise in my hair, and leave it at that, hmmm?
Duh. It's not that hard. If you ... you know ... follow the very simple directions.
The recipe here is just for the mayonnaise. The tacos were just blue corn tortillas, lettuce from the farmer's market and leftover grilled salmon. The yuzu mayonnaise added a nice citrus note to the tacos.
Yuzu Mayonnaise
2 egg yolks
1 tablespoon yuzu* juice
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon prepared mustard
1/2 cup light-flavored oil (more or less, as needed)
Put the eggs, yuzu juice, salt and mustard in your blender, and blend until the eggs begin to thicken and become a little lighter in color.
Add the oil in a thin, very slow stream until the mixture thickens and becomes a mayonnaise. You might need more oil. Probably not less.
I've seen recipes that call for up to a cup of oil per egg yolk, but that seems like a lot to me. Or maybe they were giant-yolked eggs. Mine thickened nicely with the half-cup of oil, and it had a nice citrus taste.
*Yuzu is a Japanese citrus that tastes something like lemon. You could use lemon instead, no problem. I got my yuzu juice, along with a couple other interesting citrus juices from Marx Foods as a sample.
Cook, Bake, Boil and Bubble... It's all about creating, experimenting and playing with food in my Colorado kitchen.

You are not alone in the aioli adventure department. At a recent photpshoot (after having thought I mastered the aioli technique) I must have gone through a dozen eggs and 32 oz of oil in order to make a successful batch. Damn you, Aioli!
Way to persevere, Donna. Looks like a hit-the-spot kind of snack.

I was thrilled with the way I was able to drop off and pick up my car in a building. Also everyone was so friendly and helpful. You have won my business from your competition.
Now that's real customer service. Easy access for airport and great turnaround time each way
The fastest and easiest parking for MIA!
great service, great facilities, reassurance that the car was safe while I was away (Score 10 out of 10)
Easy to find, quick, efficient. Good experience all around - and the car is clean and shiny when you get back from your trip.
The parking at experience at Park 'N Fly Miami was an excelent experience, it was easy to find, secure, and efficeintly run.
Love Park n' Fly! It's so Easy to use, so much less expensive than on-site airport parking or taxi, and their customer service is excellent!
Your employees and facility was awesome! I even think they washed my car. I typically use your Ft. Lauderdale site which is great, but your Miami facility was amazing. Thank you for providing great customer service and I will be definitely be using and recommending your company again. Thank You! Curtis
A DEFINITE do-again. Very friendly staff; very convenient; minimal waiting. Silly to park anywhere else.
Fast & Easy!!
one of the best aspects of our trip is parking our car at PNF Miami. We love the location, the service and the convenience. The valet service is fantastic. We call from the airport and our freshly washed car is waiting for us inside the garage, next to a red carpert. We feel like VIP's!
"Very good location close to airport. I drove up and was greeted by a very friendly staff member who helped me with my bags, placed them in the shuttle and off we went. Return was just as convenient. Very nice friendly workers and good rates.. This is my 3rd time using this company and I will use them always. Cyndi R., Miami, Fl.

China Pattern Projects
Borrowing motifs from vintage china patterns, these easy crafts celebrate tradition in surprisingly fresh ways.
By Elizabeth Roehrig
Vintage China
The Iron-On Technique
Step 1: Take a photo of a piece of blue-and-white china against a white background. Enlarge the image by 200 percent, and print it on Lazertran's Iron-On Ink-Jet Transfer Paper for Textiles ($13 for five 8 1/2" x 11" sheets, at lazertran.com). Wait 30 minutes for the transfer to dry, then cut out the image and place it facedown onto the fabric.
The Iron-On Technique
Step 2: Protect the transfer by covering it with the provided parchment paper, then iron on the transfer according to the directions.
The Iron-On Technique
Step 3: Paul used this technique to decorate a $10 apron from Bed Bath & Beyond, but the possibilities are endless.

Freemasonry and the Orthodox Church
Post: #12
RE: Thanks for the Feedback
(13-05-2008 09:03 AM)ianaird Wrote: They require any member to profess a belief in Deity…It allegedly transliterates as "Jehovah-Baal-Osiris" i.e. 3 names for god taken from other traditions…It may be considered a poor linguistic attempt to present the name of God in three languages, such as 'Dios-Dieu-Gott' might be represented in Spanish, French & German… Freemasonry…makes no attempt to…deny…any religion…'
But Deity means the state of someone, anyone, being God. There is only one true God, & since 'God' is a title, it can be used without qualification only among people who all agree Whom or whom it means. For the true Christian, it means Father, Son, & Holy Spirit (the Trinity one in essence & undivided), i.e. Jehovah, Jesus Christ, & the Spirit which originates with the Father, proceeding through the Son, if you like. For others, it means SOMEONE ELSE, thus a false god.
Baal is certainly one of these false gods; there are extensive Scriptures proving it: the Lord said to him: thou shalt destroy the altar of Baal… (Jud 6:25) … their fathers forgot my name for Baal. (Jer 23:27) And I have seen folly in the prophets of Samaria: they prophesied in Baal, and deceived my people Israel. (Jer 23:13) And the Lord of hosts that planted thee, hath pronounced evil against thee: for the evils of the house of Israel, and the house of Juda, which they have done to themselves, to provoke me, offering sacrifice to Baalim. (Jer 11:17) For according to the number of thy cities were thy gods, O Juda: and according to the number of the streets of Jerusalem thou hast set up altars of confusion, altars to offer sacrifice to Baalim. (Jer 11:13) And they left all the commandments of the LORD their God, and made them molten images, even two calves, and made a grove, and worshipped all the host of heaven, and served Baal. (II Kgs 17:16) He served also Baal, and worshipped him, and provoked the Lord the God of Israel, according to all that his father had done. (I Kgs 22:53) And I will stretch out my hand upon Juda, and upon all the inhabitants of Jerusalem: and I will destroy out of this place the remnant of Baal, and the names of the wardens of the temples with the priests: (Zep 1:4) And all that generation was gathered to their fathers: and there arose others that knew not the Lord, and the works which he had done for Israel. And the children of Israel did evil in the sight of the Lord, and they served Baalim. And they left the Lord the God of their fathers, who had brought them out of the land of Egypt: and they followed strange gods, and the gods of the people that dwelt round about them, and they adored them: and they provoked the Lord to anger. Forsaking him, and serving Baal and Astaroth. And the Lord being angry against Israel, delivered them into the hands of plunderers: who took them and sold them to their enemies… (Jud 2:10–14) And the king said to him: Doth not Bel seem to thee to be a living god? Seest thou not how much he eateth and drinketh every day? 6 Then Daniel smiled and said: O king, be not deceived: for this is but clay within, and brass without, neither hath he eaten at any time. (Bel 5, 6) and the king said: I see the footsteps of men, and women, and children. And the king was angry. Then he took the priests, and their wives, and their children: and they shewed him the private doors by which they came in, and consumed the things that were on the table. The king therefore put them to death, and delivered Bel into the power of Daniel: who destroyed him, and his temple. (Bel 19–21) There is immense danger in worshiping false gods!
Regarding Masonry denying a religion, it does, because it admits non-Christians, & it tells all it admits they will go to heaven, but Jesus did not say, 'I am A way, A truth, and A life: all men come to the Father, through Me or not', but, Jesus saith to him: I am the way, and the truth, and the life. No man cometh to the Father, but by me. (Jn 14:6) In this way, it says Jesus Christ lies & thus it denies His divinity & goodness, subsequently denying the true faith.

31 CFR 240.3 - Electronic checks and substitute checks.
(a) Legal equivalence of electronic checks. An electronic check for which a presenting bank has provided the guarantees described in § 240.4 is the legal equivalent of an original or substitute check for purposes of this part if the electronic check accurately represents all of the information on the front and back of the check that the presenting bank truncated. If a financial institution presents an electronic check for payment and the check is subject to return, Treasury may effect the return using an electronic check, but this part does not create any right for the presenting bank to return the check to the payee or any other person using an electronic check.
(b) Safekeeping of original checks. Any financial institution that creates a substitute check or electronic check shall prevent unauthorized access to the original or substitute check that was truncated by storing the check, until it is destroyed, in a manner consistent with federal banking agency guidelines for safeguarding customer information.

Epigenetics is the study of heritable changes in the phenotype of a cell or an organism that are not encoded by the genome (hence epi which means 'above' in Greek, and genetikos which means 'origin').
In this article, we'll discuss DNA methylation, a common epigenetic modification: both what it is, and how it can be detected and quantified.
Our genome stores information in the form of DNA molecules. Most of us are familiar with the genomic architecture, which consists of DNA wrapped around histone proteins to form nucleosomes, which are then packaged into highly condensed chromatin. Our genome sequence remains generally constant, with the exception of genetic mutations that can lead to deleterious results such as cancer. Epigenetic changes, however, which are not encoded in the DNA sequence, are reversible and dynamic, and are also heritable. These epigenetic modifications reflect adaptations to our environment, life-style, diet, and other external factors. Thus, the mammalian genome can be modified at either the chromatin or the DNA level.
DNA consists of four nucleotide building blocks: cytosine, guanine, adenine, and thymine. Cytosine residues can undergo an epigenetic modification called methylation, catalyzed by the enzyme DNA methyltransferase, that results in the addition of a methyl group to the carbon-5 position, yielding 5-methylcytosine (5-mC). Additionally, 5-mC can be enzymatically oxidized to 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5-hmC) by the TET1/2/3 enzymes. These DNA methylation events are thought to regulate gene expression, and there is increasing evidence that these modifications are linked to embryonic stem cell function, development, normal tissue function, and disease progression. However, 5-hmC and 5-mC are believed to have different functional roles in the mammalian genome, and it is possible that these changes may represent early epigenetic biomarkers for different pathogeneses.
In our recent webinar on Bitesize Bio, Dr. Sriharsa Pradham of New England Biolabs discussed various techniques for detecting 5-hmC and 5-mC modifications, both globally and within specific sequences. Dr. Pradham presented a very robust and easy-to-use protocol that employs the EpiMark 5-hmC and 5-mC analysis kit.
The power of this approach is that it can determine enrichment for specific methylation modifications locally and on a genome-wide level. For instance, you could determine global 5-hmC levels in normal vs. cancer samples, possibly identifying epigenetic biomarkers for a particular cancer.
How could you use this technology in your reseaarch?
ps: Don't forget to check out our webinar on detecting 5-hmC and 5-mC modifications!Photo Credits

Jed Allan - biography
Jed Allan (born Jed Allan Brown; March 1, 1937) is an American actor. Allan has starred in several soap operas. He is perhaps best known for his role as Don Craig on Days of our Lives, which he played from 1971 to 1985. He gained a new audience when he played C.C. Capwell on Santa Barbara from 1986 to 1993. His departure from Days of our Lives was very controversial, as his character was abruptly written out with no further explanation. In one episode, he went to mail a letter and never returned, and was never mentioned in dialogue again. After his time on Santa Barbara, Allan had a recurring role on Beverly Hills, 90210 playing the role of Rush Sanders. In 2004, he started playing the role of Edward Quartermaine on General Hospital.

Whirlpool Corporation announced that it plans to invest approximately U.S. $180 million to strengthen the company's manufacturing base in North America and extend its leadership position in the U.S. appliance industry.
The 2004 investments are expected to result in a series of new product introductions and improved cost competitiveness for the company's North American business.
"These investments will support the continuing efforts of our brands and operations in North America to deliver a constant stream of innovation to customers in the U.S. domestic market and throughout the world," said David L. Swift, executive vice president, North American Region. "In addition, the investments will help us drive improved productivity and efficiency across our North American manufacturing platform."
According to the appliance maker, approximately $100 million of the 2004 investment will fund initiatives at the company's manufacturing facilities in the U.S. The initiatives will lead to the production of a number of new Whirlpool brand and KitchenAid brand products.
Whirlpool said it plans to produce several significant new laundry product innovations, which will be produced at the company's manufacturing facilities at Clyde, OH, U.S. and Marion, OH, U.S. The products include the company's new generation of top-load washers and front-load dryers. Current plans call for an investment of up to $145 million in the Ohio-based initiatives over a 3-year period.
The company also announced it plans the completion of a production line for new counter-depth, side-by-side refrigerators at Ft. Smith, AR, U.S., a new line of top-mount refrigerators at Evansville, IN, U.S., new built-in refrigeration products at Lavergne, TN, U.S., new cooking products at Tulsa, OK, U.S., and a wide range of new dishwasher models at Findlay, OH, U.S.
Approximately $80 million of the 2004 investment will be used to begin work on the expansion of the company's laundry production facility in Monterrey, Mexico and the construction of a new refrigeration facility in Ramos Arizpe, Coahuilla.
