Exhibition on the artist Rembrandt Bugatti: Rembrandt Bugatti (1884-1916) was one of the early 20th century's most notable sculptors. Before taking his own life at the age of 31, he had established an extensive oeuvre of some 300 works. Although his works appear in many of the world's major museums, particularly in France and the USA, and are worth millions on the art market, Rembrandt Bugatti is largely unknown. This exhibition at the Old National Gallery will be the first ever German exhibition dedicated to his sculptures.

N.H. standoff comes to an end after man shoots himself in the chest
Updated On: Jul 02 2014 02:52:50 AM EDT
An hours-long standoff in Keene came to an end Tuesday night when police said the suspect shot himself.
Officers said they were trying to arrest the man around 6 p.m. in the area of Ivy Drive on an electric bench warrant for receiving stolen and a parole warrant. The suspect resisted arrest and ran from the officer. Police said while he was running, he pulled out a handgun and held it against his own body.
The man ran to a nearby apartment complex where he kept police at bay for more than four hours. Police said the standoff ended when the man shot himself once in the chest area. The suspect was rushed to Cheshire Medical Center, where he later died. An Autopsy will be scheduled to determine his cause of death, police said.
Authorities are not releasing the man's name until he is positively identified by the medical examiner's office and his family is notified.
Keene police are asking anyone with information on this case to contact Detective Joel Chidester at 603-357-9813 or leave an anonymous tip on the Keene police department's website.

gouache colors on Fabriano paper
From memory of a visit to a local vineyard several years ago.
Oh, just what the doctor ordered. Okay Jim, I am ready to sit in the shade, have a glass of wine and enjoy the soothing view. Oh this is wonderful!
You're so sweet to say that, we both know you'd be the DD in the group. lol Thanks a million times Carolyn, I just love your comments.
– Jim Phillips
this reminds me portugal. when i was there i didn't enjoy beautiful sceanery at all and just concentraited in painting. and now missing them, i was so stupid. i love your scenery painting so much Jim.
We're all like that Hidemi. I can think of a 100 places I've visited that would have make excellent paintings and I didn't get the first sketch or photo of them. Thanks my friend.
– Jim Phillips
I think it is the most perfect place to set…just beautiful Jim…Who would ever want to go inside after seeing this patio :)
Even here at my own home, I love to sit outdoors when I can. Thanks Webbie.
– Jim Phillips
Great painting. Love the compostion in this. Looks so inviting.
Such a wonderful comment Marsha, thanks so much.
– Jim Phillips
Ooh, nice … you got a good memory.
You and I both know, my memory may have enhanced the scene just a bit. lol It's more of how I would like to remember this place rather than how it actually looks. Thanks Ginny.
– Jim Phillips
Beautiful and bright view, Jim! Love it!
That's a wonderful comment Dorina, thanks.
– Jim Phillips
This image conjures up all that we desire…summer, wine, peace and light…a healing view…great painting Jim…
What a very thoughtful and sweet comment, thank you very much, Janis.
– Jim Phillips
I agree with Janis! Beautiful painting, the colours and the quality of the light is fantastic.
Thank you Joan, I truly appreciate such a kind comment.
– Jim Phillips
I love the pattern of those black chairs – very daring – nice contrast with the rest of the picture.
These were modeled after some chairs I own except mine are that wrought iron green color. Thought the black would give some needed contrast to this painting.
– Jim Phillips
Beautiful view, and I love the warm tones in this painting.
Thanks so much Lora.

this looks great thanks for the recipe. Next time I make breakfast this will be it. Thanks. Love these recipes. No problems with us. We eat healthy and paleo helps us so much.
Is it possible to substitute something for the eggs? I can't eat them right now. Thanks!
Substitute shrimp finely minced (food processor is best) for the egg and it will bind almost anything.

Ex-IT consultant jailed 10 months for underage sex
Published on Jan 15, 2014 1:55 PM
A former Infocomm Development Authority of Singapore (IDA) information technology analyst was jailed for 10 months on Wednesday for underage sex.
Ramos Lobaton Alan, 26, pleaded guilty to two counts of having sex with a 15-year-old student in a room at a flat in Ang Mo Kio Avenue 3 on Oct 13 and 23, 2012. Ten other charges were taken into consideration during his sentencing.
The Mexican national is the second man to be jailed for having sex with the girl and was among five men hauled to court last year.
Last Tuesday, Malaysian Jared Chan Yee Mun, 32, who lives in Australia and owns a restaurant there, was given 12 months for having consensual sex with the minor at Changi Village Hotel while on transit here on Oct 5, 2012.

Uranium Energy Corp Issues Mid-Year Shareholder Report
NYSE MKT Exchange Symbol - UEC
CORPUS CHRISTI, TX, July 25, 2012 /PRNewswire/ - Uranium Energy Corp (NYSE MKT: UEC; "UEC" or the 'Company') today issued a Mid-Year Shareholder Report. The report from CEO Amir Adnani follows in its complete form:
Dear Shareholder,
I am pleased to provide you with this mid-year report on the status of Uranium Energy Corp and its key projects.First and foremost, I would like to thank you as a UEC shareholder for your continued support and confidence in the Company and its management. UEC remains focused on expanding uranium production in South Texas, increasing in-ground resources and furthering our substantial pipeline of projects, while increasing cash flow from operations. The first half of the year demonstrated that the global nuclear industry is reviving rapidly with positive developments in the U.S., China and other countries. The recent restart of two reactors in Japan is a sign that the Japanese remain committed to nuclear power. Increasing world-wide nuclear capacity is anticipated to gradually create lasting and historic increases in the demand for uranium. As one of the few uranium producers in the world, UEC is well-financed and well-positioned for this recovery. ACHIEVEMENTS AND HIGHLIGHTS FROM THE FIRST HALF OF 2012 Production Results at the Palangana ISR Mine: Two new production areas ("PA") were defined bringing the total number of PAs to five at the Palangana Mine, with PA 1 and 2 being online with uranium recovery. PA-1 has received a number of recompletions of existing wells, resulting in improved recent recovery rates, and at PA-2 operations were initiated in late March as planned. Cumulative production since the start of production in November 2010 through April 30 this year has been 273,000 pounds of U 3O 8 at an average cash cost of $18 per pound. May and June production numbers were higher than the preceding months, and a low-cost production profile is being maintained. Palangana ISR Mine Production and Development Advances: A Production Area Authorization application was submitted to the Texas Commission on Environmental Quality ("TCEQ") for Production Area-3 (PA-3) in March. Wellfield development of injection and production wells is coinciding with the progress made on the TCEQ application. Thus far, drilling of the planned wells is nearly complete with the area targeted for initial production during the second half of this year. Initial core leach studies indicate encouraging recovery yields at PA-3. The Company is also pleased to be adding Production Areas 4 and 5 to the Palangana Mine production pipeline with permitting and development work initiated this year. The mine permit amendment application is scheduled for submission for these zones during the calendar year fourth quarter.

Frying is often deemed a bit daunting for the home cook, but there's no reason why. In this recipe, tender, buttermilk-marinated chicken cutlets cook quickly and absorb very little oil. The result is crisp, well-seasoned chicken, enhanced by a sweet-and-spicy sauce made with just two ingredients.

A twist is a way to share your own spin on our recipies!
|4 (1 3/4 pounds) boneless, skinless chicken breast halves
|Canola or vegetable oil, for frying
|Coarse kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
|2 cups all-purpose flour
|1 1/2 cups lowfat buttermilk
|1/4 cup honey
|1 tablespoon Dijon mustard
|1/2 teaspoon finely ground black pepper
|Several dashes hot sauce, such as Tabasco
Halve chicken breasts crosswise so you have 8 cutlets. Place each cutlet between two pieces of plastic wrap and gently pound thicker areas to uniform thickness. Season cutlets on both sides with salt and pepper.
In a large, nonreactive bowl combine buttermilk, mustard, ½ teaspoon salt, a pinch of black pepper, and several dashes of hot sauce; mix well. Place chicken cutlets in buttermilk mixture, stirring to coat each piece. Place in refrigerator and marinate 10 minutes.
Meanwhile, heat oven to 200 degrees and place a rack on a rimmed baking sheet. Pour enough oil into a 12-inch, heavy-bottomed skillet (preferably cast iron) to measure about ¾-inch deep, and begin heating over medium high. In a shallow dish, combine flour. ½ teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. In a separate small bowl, combine honey and ½ teaspoon finely ground black pepper; set aside.
When oil reaches 360 degrees, remove 4 chicken cutlets from buttermilk marinade and coat well in seasoned flour mixture. Carefully place cutlets in hot oil and cook, turning once until they are dark golden brown on both sides and just cooked through, about 6 minutes total. Use a slotted spatula to remove finished cutlets to rimmed baking sheet to drain; sprinkle with salt. Keep finished cutlets warm in the oven. Repeat frying process with remaining cutlets. Serve finished cutlets drizzled with black-pepper honey.

Late last week a friend and I went out together to walk her dog. We went to Queens Park, the same park I've described here a few times before. This was the first time in a year or maybe more that I went to that park with someone. Usually I go alone, walk around a bit, and stop at one of my favourite spots to meditate.This was a social visit, and I didn't expect to have any sort of spiritual insight about it. Spirit is clever about laying in surprises when you least expect them. I thought I … [Read more...]
The Intersection of People and Place
People and Place
Today I have no answers or great stories to tell, just a rambling discursive meditation on the relationship between people and place. Do people make a place the way it is or does a place shape the people who live there?Chicken. Egg. There's really no answer to this question. But when you think of the personality of a place, it has a lot to do with the culture and personality of the people who live there.But the personality of a place shifts over time, in part because of migrations of … [Read more...]
Crossing the boundaries of urban and rural
A few months ago, Joshua Graham wrote about an urban sense of place and Pagan spirituality. This weekend I went to visit him in Bath, an English city watched over by the Goddess Sulis Minerva.Before I became a rural dweller, I lived in the city of Bath for three years. It was a sight less urban than my home city of Birmingham, and also smaller than the other city I'd lived in for a similar length of time, Cambridge. It felt almost rural to me when I moved there, back in 1996.It both … [Read more...]

A pretty and relatively elegant nose offers up a perfumed mixture of wood, plum, violet and earth nuances. There is good verve and plenty of sleek muscle to the lightly mineral-infused flavors that possess lovely detail on the dusty, serious and solidly long finish. A complete villages that is supported by relatively firm but ripe tannins.
(4/ 2012)
This comes from four parcels in Volnay, both above and below the village. The combination of deeper clay soils on the lower slopes, and soils as shallow as four inches on the upper slopes, makes for an exciting wine, with lovely, concentrated black fruit, vibrant energy and terrific quality. Like all the estate vineyards, they are farmed organically and biodynamically. (Keith Wollenberg, K&L Burgundy buyer)

Medi and diabetes
Hi all just wondering if anyone else out there on medi is also diabetic and how is it working for you?
cjbee- I hadn't noticed this thread til today. Mediweightloss diagnosed me with insulin resistence when I started the program initially 9/08....yes, I was in it MWL for over 4 months then had a family crisis and quit....regained the 26 lbs and started again 12/28/09 and now down 31 lbs. Anyway....when I was diagnosed with insulin resistence I was started on Metformin twice daily and my Hgb A1C was 5.3 (non-diabetic) after about 4 wks on MWL. But though I took the Metformin (500 mg twice daily) when I regained the weight my A1C was up to 5.9 (NEARLY diabetic!) and Metformin was increased to three times a day and I restarted MWL. My last check was about 6 wks ago and it was down to 5.2. I KNOW I need this lifestyle change! Both of my parents became adult onset diabetics, and so did 3 out of 4 of my grandparents and several aunts. I don't want to go there....too many arterial and organ problems can occur due to blood sugar issues for diabetics.
Are you diabetic?
Hi there just wondering if your bs is better since being on medi. I am pre diabetic and now have no symptoms
I don't have to check my blood sugars....but the A1C test is a test which shows how in control the blood sugars are for the previous 2 to 3 months; and as you can see above my A1C numbers came down being on Metformin plus the medi diet. I'm back into normal range but still take Metformin three times daily. Too much family history and I certainly don't want to mess with artery problems caused by high blood sugars. Without Metformin however, the insulin resistance would make me unable to break down carbs and nutrition, make me continue to feel unsatisfied and hungry, and actually take the unbroken down carbs and store them as fat!
When I went for the initial visit with Medi, my BS was 283....didn't realize I was diabetic. I got with the program, and my BS is no longer an issue. I check them every few days, and they never go over the accepted limit. I did not go on medication even though my DR wanted me to. Hope this helps!
I went on the Metformin so that the meds WOULD help. It was the insulin resistance and eating a regular diet (pre-Medi) that made me put on all the weight to begin with! Perhaps some day I'll cut down Metformin, but with a family history of diabetes I'm not going to chance undetected high blood sugars and have organ or vascular disease as a result! So, are you checking your own blood sugars at home?
I do check my own at my parents house. My dad is diabetic and I use his testing kit every few days. My fasting usually is around 83 which is a big change considering what they were pre-MWL....You will get off the Metformin.....Type 2 sucks! I was diabetic when was pegnant with my daughter....hated the insulin injections....went 10 years without any problems and then SLAM!!!!:stars:
Wake up call.....
The big thing too is what are your blood sugars two hours after eating a meal? How has your body handled the calories? Reader's Digest this week has a good self test to see if you have prediabetes. Just the few sentences I've read from you you are at risk (previous gestational diabetes, family history, overweight...). I'm so glad you're getting the weight off now and taking control of your health. It would be interesting to see what your A1C is, this tests blood sugar trends for the previous 3 months and can predict how bad it has been...the worst mine was was up to 5.9 and a couple months ago it was down to 5.2 (safe!) I credit MWL for this in my life, because my own MD wasn't doing anything about it prior to that time and I knew it was lurking around the corner! Don't mess with diabetes, my friend!
i agree the medical community just sseems to blow off diabetes and insulin resistance and it is extremely confusing and dangerous-we have to teach ouselves everything using online tools etc-it stinks
A lot of the problem is that most docs were taught to CURE, not to prevent. As gatekeepers in the healthcare insurance industry they have had a conflict. But, nowadays, they are finally learning that evidence proves so many diseases can be prevented by simple means early on....but they don't make as much money out of it going that route, do they? They just have to reflect back on WHY they really entered a healthCARE field to begin with.... (!)

Donald Norman, a retired professor of cognitive science, is bothered to no end by the fact that grappling with unfriendly objects now takes up so many of our hours. Over the course of several books, of which The Psychology of Everyday Things was the first, he has railed against bad design. He scrutinizes a range of artifacts that are supposed to make our daily living a little easier, and he finds most of them wanting. Why, he asks, does a door need instructions that say "push" or "pull"? A well-designed object, he argues, is self-explanatory. But well-designed objects are increasingly rare, for the present culture places a higher value on aesthetics than utility, even with such items as cordless screwdrivers, dresser drawers, and kitchen cabinets. In their concern for creating "art," many designers don't seem to consider what people actually do with things. Such disregard, Norman suggests, leads to few objects being standardized: think of all the different kinds of unsynchronized clocks that lurk in microwave ovens, VCRs, coffee makers, and the like--and of all the different kinds of batteries needed to drive them. Why, he wonders, must we reset all those clocks whenever the power goes off? Some designer somewhere, he ventures, ought to develop a master clock that communicates with all other electric clocks in a home--one that, when reset, synchronizes its slave units.
You don't need to be especially interested in technological matters to enjoy Norman's arguments. The book's underlying question is aimed at a global audience: will the design of everyday things improve? If this entertaining and, yes, well-designed book changes even a few minds, perhaps it will. --Gregory McNamee
I ended up reading the other book and sending this one back, but I would recommend either.

.- The secretary general of the Bishops' Conference of Colombia, Bishop Fabian Marulanda, expressed his hope this week that Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez's request for the FARC to release all of its hostages "reflects a sincere desire on his behalf and a change of mentality not only" in Chavez "but also in many other people who in one way or another have been involved in acts of subversion."
Bishop Marulanda made his comments on Radio Caracol. He said Chavez's remarks that guerrilla movements are not justified right now in Latin America were "sensible and rational."
Bishop Marulanda went on to stress that the bishops' conference would continue to work for the release of the hostages held by the FARC, but he did not give further details. "In this the Church has exercised great discretion and reserve. Just as there are other policies in the sense of publicizing whatever is said or done, the Church considers it preferable to maintain discretion in this," he said.
Representative Mauricio Lizcano, a member of the ruling party in Venezuela, said Chavez understands that there is a new policy in the world related to groups such as the FARC, paramilitary groups and terrorism. Let's hope the FARC understands and listens to this request from President Chavez."

Buchholz may have start pushed back
Unbeaten pitcher has neck tightness
|Boston Red Sox starting pitcher Clay Buchholz underhands a ball back to the pitcher's mound before a baseball game against the Tampa Bay Rays Monday, June 10, 2013, in St. Petersburg, Fla. (AP Photo/Chris O'Meara)
ST. PETERSBURG, Fla. (AP) — Boston Red Sox right-hander Clay Buchholz could have his next start pushed back at least a couple days.
Buchholz, 9-0 with a 1.71 ERA this season, left his start Saturday in the seventh inning in the nightcap of a day-night doubleheader with what the team called "neck tightness."
Red Sox manager John Farrell indicated that Buchholz may not be ready to throw his normal between starts bullpen session on Wednesday. His next scheduled start is Friday.
"I think over the next couple days we'll get a better read on when his next start will line up," Farrell said before Monday night's game against Tampa Bay. "But most importantly he feels improvement over yesterday."
Buchholz said he didn't plan to throw for the second consecutive day Monday.
"I want to be out there ... I want to help the team," Buchholz said. "Me, going out there at 80 percent is not going to help anybody because there's going to be an apprehension of me throwing a pitch. I'd rather take care of it now."
Also, the Red Sox reinstated third baseman Will Middlebrooks from the 15-day disabled list. Sidelined by a lower back strain, Middlebrooks was in the starting lineup for Monday's game with the Rays.
With Middlebrooks back, Jose Iglesias, who had been filling in at third, will move into a utility role. Farrell said Iglesias should play at least three times a week on the left side of the infield.
"Will is healthy, he's back and in the lineup," Farrell said. "Jose knows that he's got a bright future here and he's earned his way to remain on this roster rather than go back down to Triple-A."
Iglesias entered Monday with a 13-game hitting streak, hitting .435 (20 for 46) over the stretch.
"Of course you want to play, but bottom line I'm happy to be here," Iglesias said.
To make room on the roster, Boston designated infielder Pedro Ciriaco for assignment.
"I think there will be a lot of interest in him," Farrell said. "He's a good player, and he's done a good job while here in Boston."

Provident Financial Services, Inc. To Acquire Team Capital Bank As The Provident Bank Expands Its Franchise Into Pennsylvania
ISELIN, N.J. and BETHLEHEM, Pa., Dec. 20, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Provident Financial Services, Inc. (NYSE:PFS) and Team Capital Bank (PRIVATE: PA.) today announced the signing of a definitive agreement under which Team Capital will merge with and into The Provident Bank. Consideration will be paid to Team Capital stockholders in a combination of stock and cash valued at $122 million, based on Provident's closing price of $18.61 on December 19, 2013.
Upon completion of the transaction, The Provident Bank will assume a five branch Pennsylvania network in the attractive business lending markets of Bucks County and the Lehigh Valley. Further, the merger adds seven branches to Provident's New Jersey franchise and expands Provident's network into the growing banking markets of Hunterdon and Warren counties. With approximately $8.3 billion in assets post-closing, Provident will be positioned to deliver a wide range of comprehensive retail and commercial banking services through a combined network of 90 branches in 13 counties throughout northern and central New Jersey and three counties in eastern Pennsylvania.
"We're very pleased with the acquisition of Team Capital Bank, a commercially-oriented bank with solid asset quality," said Provident's Chairman, President & CEO, Christopher Martin. "This merger will establish an important presence for Provident in eastern Pennsylvania, and it nicely complements and strategically adds to our franchise in contiguous markets. This presents a great opportunity to add scale to Team Capital's commercial lending operations and for the retail bank to increase its market share."Robert Rupel, Team Capital's President and CEO, commented, "We believe Team Capital's customers and stockholders will benefit greatly from this transaction. Provident brings additional retail and business banking products, proven lending capabilities and a depth of capital that will enable the combined company to better compete in our marketplace. Our officers and employees look forward to joining the Provident team."

Hmmm. At age 17 you can join the military with consent. If you are acting a butt on the football field with your car and get suspended from school and get all mad and stuff, and then like go and get your dads gun and shoot the principle...well of course it's your dads fault.
Maybe the "nanny state" is to blame.
Who should be be held accountable? Well maybe mister 17 year old has already made that determination and punished the principle for suspending him and punished his father for what ever punishment he was going to render.
Case closed.
Punishment lasting forever.

Thread: Martin - should I embark?
August 1st, 2006, 07:24 AM #1
Martin - should I embark?
I have just been reading the 'favorite authers' thread in the fatasy board and Martin came top. I have yet to embark on any of Martin's books but am now understandably intrigued!!!
As a GGK and Hobb fan would 'A song of Ice and Fire' be something new which I would enjoy? Persuade me....................
August 1st, 2006, 07:32 AM #2
You got to bring some specials to the battlefield if you conclude that you DON'T like the masterpiece of Martin's A song of Ice and Fire series.
So.. Yes.
August 1st, 2006, 08:38 AM #3
Oh, to be reading the series for the first time. I envy you. Therefore I am saying you must read this series. If you like great characters, scheming, political intrigue, love, hate, vengeance and retribution, well then you just have to read this series. So I guess in other words I am saying YES!!!!!
August 1st, 2006, 09:11 AM #4
Hello lovely_elm, I've said to others asking the same question that these books are quite brilliant, easily the best fantasy you will read - but be prepared to be shocked by things you are not expecting, and to be so irritated by the long gaps between publication of new volumes that you start to feel it like a constant, gnawing ache...maybe that's just me. But, yes, ASoIaF is first rate stuff, if you can bear to wait for the next installment.
August 1st, 2006, 12:32 PM #5
What are you waiting for???
LOL, yes, of course you should read Martin! Most people on this board will probably be extremely jealous of you, for being able to read the books for the first time! I've read the series twice, and it remains my favorite fantasy work after The Lord of the Rings.
Also, seeing that you like Hobb and Kay is a good sign, since those authors, along with Martin, Erikson, and Bakker, are some of the highest quality fantasy out there right now.
Go out, and buy yourself these books:
1. A Game of Thrones
2. A Clash of Kings
3. A Storm of Swords
4. A Feast for Crows (you're lucky, we all waited 5 years for this one!)
(three more books on the way)
Happy Readings

I'm reading it for the first time right now and am almost done with the second book. I found it very difficult to get in to. It reads a lot like a soap opera instead of a fantasy for a while, in my opinion, and I almost put it down several times. I stuck with it and I'm glad I did. It's proving to be very interesting, if unlike anything I'm used to. I recommend it.

OOooh - I'm quite excited about this now!! I may even put the Liveships books on hold and read 'A Song of Ice and Fire' straight away............!

Why believe us when you can read these messages from GRRM's peers?
"This is one of those rare and effortless reads." - Robin Hobb
"A Game of Thrones grabs hold and won't let go. It's brilliant." - Robert Jordan
"I read my eyes out. I couldn't stop until I'd finished and it was dawn." - Anne McCaffrey
"A Game of Thrones offers the rich tapestry that the very best fantasy demands. Few created worlds are as imaginative and diverse." - Janny Wurts
"George Martin is assuredly a new master craftsman in the guild of heroic fantasy." - Katherine Kerr
"A dazzling fantasy adventure. Martin populates his world with a great cast of characters that wave a tapestry of court intrigue, skullduggery and vicious betrayal." - Julian May
"It's ambition: to create the Twelve Caesars of fantasy fiction, with characters so venemous they could eat the Borgias." Times Literary Review
"George R.R. Martin is one of our very best writers and this is one of his very best books." - Raymond E. Feist
August 1st, 2006, 11:54 PM #11OOooh - I'm quite excited about this now!! I may even put the Liveships books on hold and read 'A Song of Ice and Fire' straight away............!
August 2nd, 2006, 05:31 AM #12
Decisions decisions! I had just finished The Farseer books and read The Lions of Al Rassan to give myself a Fitz break before Liveships. Now I'm all intrigued about Martin..........................
August 2nd, 2006, 12:12 PM #13
Well, if you haven't started Livships yet, you might as well give Martin a whirl. By the way, Fitz is not in the Liveship series, which takes place far, far to the south of the Six Duchies. Fitz's world returns only in the Tawny Man books.

You absolutely have to read Martin, but please don't forget about Liveship. I absolutely loved the Liveship trilogy. Pirates, romance, action, sea serpents; definitely a fantastic read! However, you have to HAVE TO read Martin. Martin and Hobb are my favorite fantasy authors of today.
Ah, I'm so jealous. You've got some of the best reading ahead of you.
August 8th, 2006, 09:31 AM #15Originally Posted by lovely_elm
OH GOD YES! READ ASoIaF!
Hands down one of the best Fantasy series ever written imho!
Of course, having also read Liveships, if you've just finished Farseer then go ahead and read Liveships. ASoIaF is well worth the wait!

School Blossoms in New Talavan
By Ananta Ram das
It is with great enthusiasm that we announce the re-opening and expansion of the school in New Talavan. In 2010 we wrote an article under the name of Gurukula Project Team, which took us to Mississippi to discuss our ideas. Conversations stalled for some time, but by the grace of Guru and Gauranga, and for the pleasure of Srila Prabhupada, we will be able to open the school in August 2013.
Under the name of MathEcoSpirit Academy we have begun developing our curricular materials. The school will be a center of academic excellence as well as an oasis to nourish the spirit. We encourage devotees from across the world to join this beautiful farm community and spread the word. This is the perfect time to do so. Please, contact the Temple President, Yogindra Vandana Prabhu, about your plans to move here. The community has set aside about 200 acres for individual sale to serious devotees that promise to abide by certain rules. We particularly welcome families with young children, as well as volunteer teachers and laborers. Sri Sri Radha Radha-Kanta can always relish the service of dedicated pujaris, and the 1,200 acres of land and dozens of cows need caring hands to work and protect them.
We are planning a fundraiser in August. If you think you can donate your art or other valuable assets, please contact us or the temple president. You may also donate generously to support this important project for the pleasure of Srila Prabhupada. He will be pleased to know that the farm he visited in 1974 is realizing self-sufficiency and sustainability in superlative ways. With his blessings, we will establish New Talavan as the center of learning for Vaisnavas in the West.
To find out more about our vision, visit our WordPress blog or Facebook page.
In the service of the Vaikuntha children,
Ananta Ram das (Dr. Héctor Rosario) and Visnupriya Devi dasi (Verónica del Mar Rosario)

.- Archbishop Baltazar Porras Cardozo of Merida and president of the Bishops' Conference of Venezuela, reiterated this past week the Church's rejection of a proposal to legalize abortion in cases of rape and incest through a reform of the country's penal code. During his opening address to the Venezuelan bishops gathered for their general assembly, Archbishop Porras stated, "The attack against the dignity of women and their right to spiritual and bodily integrity should not compromise the primary right to life."
"The proposal to reform the penal code would lead to greater social problems since poor women would be better helped with improved housing and dignified employment than with abortions," he added.
The archbishop said the "attempts to discredit the bishops in their right to speak and act on moral issues that affect the integrity of the human person are an attempt to restrict their exercising of the right to religious freedom."
For his part, Bishop Mario Moronta of San Cristobal told legislators that the Church is steadfast in her defense of the culture of life and he recalled that "the Constitution itself defends life from the moment of conception." In the case of rape, he added, it is unjust to condemn the child to death "while the perpetrator's own life is spared."

The Belpre Volunteer Fire Department faced a tough battle with the budget, with paramedic services disappearing.
But now the city believes the department is moving in the right direction.
The swearing in of a new chief Monday night is helping balance the budget.
Eric Sinnett is named new volunteer fire chief.
Belpre Mayor Mike Lorentz swore him in Monday night at the council meeting, surrounded by his fellow fire fighters.
Sinnett says he is happy to be helping the department, thanking those who came before him, and is looking forward to leading others.
This fire chief position in Belpre has moved from a paid position to a volunteer because of budget issues.
The department ran into problems after they were forced to close their instant tickets and bingo fundraising last year.
Mayor Lorentz says after much discussion they decided this was the best way to go for the city, so the chief's salary can be used elsewhere and Sinnett supports this decision.
Mayor Lorentz says he is extremely proud of the volunteer firefighters and their training.
Chief Sinnett says there will be other changes coming in the department.
They are going to be filling more open positions and hopefully growing the number of volunteers.
The paramedics will now be paid through a medical claims assistance contract between the city and the department.
A new Belpre Fire Chief is announced with the support of the community and the department.
Eric Sinnett is named the new volunteer fire chief.
Sinnett replaces retired Chief Bob Frank.
Sinnett also serves as the third ward councilman.
Mayor Mike Lorentz says this is "the most logical choice," noting Sinnett's over 30 years of experience.
The new chief was sworn in Monday with the support of his fellow firefighters. Also the fire chief has now been moved from a paid position to a volunteer position in Belpre.
