Have you sometimes wished that your furniture was a little more flexible and resilient? Maybe you're looking for something sturdy, yet natural-looking for your outdoor patio or garden. Or perhaps you'd like to redecorate your house in an Eastern motif. Whatever your reason, rattan furniture could be a great addition to your home.
Rattan is a popular material for furniture. That's because it's easy to weave and shape into various styles. It's also a very versatile material. It can be used to create wicker, or stained and painted like regular wood furniture. It's easy to achieve rounded lines with rattan that would require lots of cutting and sanding with other woods.
Rattan furniture is both sturdy and flexible. It is often found on enclosed porches where they can provide a breezy atmosphere without direct exposure to the elements. Synthetic rattan is even sturdier and will stand up to sunlight and rain. Some naturalists like rattan because it blends in with nature. Since the material is able to be painted it is available in many shades and hues. White synthetic rattan furniture is wonderful for outdoor entertaining in the summer. Dark rattan is more somber, but looks especially fetching next to spicy red, gold, and orange Indian fabrics. Natural rattan can be paired with green accents or floral patterns to bring the look of the outdoors inside.
All types of rattan chairs can be kept in tip top shape with routine cleaning. To clean the rattan without soaking it, whip up some suds using a little dish detergent and water. Skim off the bubbles and rub them over the rattan using a clean cloth. This provides quick routine cleaning without getting the furniture wet. Wipe with a soft, dry cloth, or allow to air dry. You can repeat this cleaning every two to four weeks as needed to maintain the furniture.
Boiled linseed oil and lemon oil work wonders as moisturizing agents. They can be gently rubbed into the rattan to prevent cracking and splitting. Rattan is naturally resistant to such damage, but dry climates and rough floors can cause problems. Keep your rattan furniture oiled for maximum protection.
If your rattan furniture has already suffered from splitting, a few easy steps will have it looking like new in just a day. When you first notice a split, apply some furniture glue to it. Then use tape to bind the pieces tight and hold them in place until the glue dries completely. This technique can also be used to repair rattan wrappings that have come loose.
If your rattan furniture starts to look dusty, use a soft feather duster to whisk away loose particles. A clean cloth can be used for general dusting. For stubborn dirt, use a soft toothbrush or small furniture brush to get into the crevices of the material.
Always store your natural rattan furniture indoors, or keep it covered with weather-proof vinyl if you need to store it outside. Synthetic rattan is durable and will withstand the weather more easily. With these care and cleaning tips, you'll ensure that your rattan furniture – natural or synthetic – will be enjoyed for many years to come.

Earnest exhortations to obedience, and dissuasives from idolatry. (1-23) Warnings against disobedience, and promises of mercy. (24-40) Cities of refuge appointed. (41-49)
Verses 1-23 The power and love of God to Israel are here made the ground and reason of a number of cautions and serious warnings; and although there is much reference to their national covenant, yet all may be applied to those who live under the gospel. What are laws made for but to be observed and obeyed? Our obedience as individuals cannot merit salvation; but it is the only evidence that we are partakers of the gift of God, which is eternal life through Jesus Christ, Considering how many temptations we are compassed with, and what corrupt desires we have in our bosoms, we have great need to keep our hearts with all diligence. Those cannot walk aright, who walk carelessly. Moses charges particularly to take heed of the sin of idolatry. He shows how weak the temptation would be to those who thought aright; for these pretended gods, the sun, moon, and stars, were only blessings which the Lord their God had imparted to all nations. It is absurd to worship them; shall we serve those that were made to serve us? Take heed lest ye forget the covenant of the Lord your God. We must take heed lest at any time we forget our religion. Care, caution, and watchfulness, are helps against a bad memory.
Verses 24-40 Moses urged the greatness, glory, and goodness of God. Did we consider what a God he is with whom we have to do, we should surely make conscience of our duty to him, and not dare to sin against him. Shall we forsake a merciful God, who will never forsake us, if we are faithful unto him? Whither can we go? Let us be held to our duty by the bonds of love, and prevailed with by the mercies of God to cleave to him. Moses urged God's authority over them, and their obligations to him. In keeping God's commandments they would act wisely for themselves. The fear of the Lord, that is wisdom. Those who enjoy the benefit of Divine light and laws, ought to support their character for wisdom and honour, that God may be glorified thereby. Those who call upon God, shall certainly find him within call, ready to give an answer of peace to every prayer of faith. All these statutes and judgments of the Divine law are just and righteous, above the statutes and judgments of any of the nations. What they saw at mount Sinai, gave an earnest of the day of judgment, in which the Lord Jesus shall be revealed in flaming fire. They must also remember what they heard at mount Sinai. God manifests himself in the works of the creation, without speech or language, yet their voice is heard, Ps. 19:1, Ps. 19:3 ; but to Israel he made himself known by speech and language, condescending to their weakness. The rise of this nation was quite different from the origin of all other nations. See the reasons of free grace; we are not beloved for our own sakes, but for Christ's sake. Moses urged the certain benefit and advantage of obedience. This argument he had begun with, ver. ( Deuteronomy 4:1 ) , That ye may live, and go in and possess the land; and this he concludes with, ver. ( Deuteronomy 4:40 ) , That it may go well with thee, and with thy children after thee. He reminds them that their prosperity would depend upon their piety. Apostacy from God would undoubtedly be the ruin of their nation. He foresees their revolt from God to idols. Those, and those only, shall find God to their comfort, who seek him with all their heart. Afflictions engage and quicken us to seek God; and, by the grace of God working with them, many are thus brought back to their right mind. When these things are come upon thee, turn to the Lord thy God, for thou seest what comes of turning from him. Let all the arguments be laid together, and then say, if religion has not reason on its side. None cast off the government of their God, but those who first abandon the understanding of a man.
Verses 41-49 Here is the introduction to another discourse, or sermon, Moses preached to Israel, which we have in the following chapters. He sets the law before them, as the rule they were to work by, the way they were to walk in. He sets it before them, as the glass in which they were to see their natural face, that, looking into this perfect law of liberty, they might continue therein. These are the laws, given when Israel was newly come out of Egypt; and they were now repeated. Moses gave these laws in charge, while they encamped over against Beth-peor, an idol place of the Moabites. Their present triumphs were a powerful argument for obedience. And we should understand our own situation as sinners, and the nature of that gracious covenant to which we are invited. Therein greater things are shown to us than ever Israel saw from mount Sinai; greater mercies are given to us than they experienced in the wilderness, or in Canaan. One speaks to us, who is of infinitely greater dignity than Moses; who bare our sins upon the cross; and pleads with us by His dying love.
Deuteronomy 4:1-13 . AN EXHORTATION TO OBEDIENCE.
1. hearken, O Israel, unto the statutes and unto the judgments, which I teach you--By statutes were meant all ordinances respecting religion and the rites of divine worship; and by judgments, all enactments relative to civil matters. The two embraced the whole law of God.
2. Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you--by the introduction of any heathen superstition or forms of worship different from those which I have appointed ( Deuteronomy 12:32 , Numbers 15:39 , Matthew 15:9 ).
neither shall ye diminish aught from it--by the neglect or omission of any of the observances, however trivial or irksome, which I have prescribed. The character and provisions of the ancient dispensation were adapted with divine wisdom to the instruction of that infant state of the church. But it was only a temporary economy; and although God here authorizes Moses to command that all its institutions should be honored with unfailing observance, this did not prevent Him from commissioning other prophets to alter or abrogate them when the end of that dispensation was attained.
3, 4. Your eyes have seen what the Lord did because of Baal-peor . . . the Lord thy God hath destroyed them from among you--It appears that the pestilence and the sword of justice overtook only the guilty in that affair ( Numbers 25:1-9 ) while the rest of the people were spared. The allusion to that recent and appalling judgment was seasonably made as a powerful dissuasive against idolatry, and the fact mentioned was calculated to make a deep impression on people who knew and felt the truth of it.
5, 6. this is your wisdom and your understanding in the sight of the nations, which shall hear all these statutes--Moses predicted that the faithful observance of the laws given them would raise their national character for intelligence and wisdom. In point of fact it did do so; for although the heathen world generally ridiculed the Hebrews for what they considered a foolish and absurd exclusiveness, some of the most eminent philosophers expressed the highest admiration of the fundamental principle in the Jewish religion--the unity of God; and their legislators borrowed some laws from the constitution of the Hebrews.
7-9. what nation is there so great--Here he represents their privileges and their duty in such significant and comprehensive terms, as were peculiarly calculated to arrest their attention and engage their interest. The former, their national advantages, are described ( Deuteronomy 4:7 Deuteronomy 4:8 ), and they were twofold: 1. God's readiness to hear and aid them at all times; and 2. the excellence of that religion in which they were instructed, set forth in the "statutes and judgments so righteous" which the law of Moses contained. Their duty corresponding to these pre-eminent advantages as a people, was also twofold: 1. their own faithful obedience to that law; and 2. their obligation to imbue the minds of the young and rising generation with similar sentiments of reverence and respect for it.
10. the day that thou stoodest before the Lord . . . in Horeb--The delivery of the law from Sinai was an era never to be forgotten in the history of Israel. Some of those whom Moses was addressing had been present, though very young; while the rest were federally represented by their parents, who in their name and for their interest entered into the national covenant.
12. ye heard the voice of the words, but saw no similitude--Although articulate sounds were heard emanating from the mount, no form or representation of the Divine Being who spoke was seen to indicate His nature or properties according to the notions of the heathen.
Deuteronomy 4:14-40 . A PARTICULAR DISSUASIVE AGAINST IDOLATRY.
15. Take . . . good heed . . . for ye saw no manner of similitude--The extreme proneness of the Israelites to idolatry, from their position in the midst of surrounding nations already abandoned to its seductions, accounts for their attention being repeatedly drawn to the fact that God did not appear on Sinai in any visible form; and an earnest caution, founded on that remarkable circumstance, is given to beware, not only of making representations of false gods, but also any fancied representation of the true God.
16-19. Lest ye corrupt yourselves, and make you a graven image--The things are here specified of which God prohibited any image or representation to be made for the purposes of worship; and, from the variety of details entered into, an idea may be formed of the extensive prevalence of idolatry in that age. In whatever way idolatry originated, whether from an intention to worship the true God through those things which seemed to afford the strongest evidences of His power, or whether a divine principle was supposed to reside in the things themselves, there was scarcely an element or object of nature but was deified. This was particularly the case with the Canaanites and Egyptians, against whose superstitious practices the caution, no doubt, was chiefly directed. The former worshipped Baal and Astarte, the latter Osiris and Isis, under the figure of a male and a female. It was in Egypt that animal-worship most prevailed, for the natives of that country deified among beasts the ox, the heifer, the sheep, and the goat, the dog, the cat, and the ape; among birds, the ibis, the hawk, and the crane; among reptiles, the crocodile, the frog, and the beetle; among fishes, all the fish of the Nile; some of these, as Osiris and Isis, were worshipped over all Egypt, the others only in particular provinces. In addition they embraced the Zabian superstition, the adoration of the Egyptians, in common with that of many other people, extending to the whole starry host. The very circumstantial details here given of the Canaanitish and Egyptian idolatry were owing to the past and prospective familiarity of the Israelites with it in all these forms.
20. But the Lord hath taken you, and brought you forth out of the iron furnace--that is, furnace for smelting iron. A furnace of this kind is round, sometimes thirty feet deep, and requiring the highest intensity of heat. Such is the tremendous image chosen to represent the bondage and affliction of the Israelites [ROSENMULLER].
to be unto him a people of inheritance--His peculiar possession from age to age; and therefore for you to abandon His worship for that of idols, especially the gross and debasing system of idolatry that prevails among the Egyptians, would be the greatest folly--the blackest ingratitude.
26. I call heaven and earth to witness against you--This solemn form of adjuration has been common in special circumstances among all people. It is used here figuratively, or as in other parts of Scripture where inanimate objects are called up as witnesses ( Deuteronomy 32:1 , Isaiah 1:2 ).
28. there ye shall serve gods, the work of men's hands--The compulsory measures of their tyrannical conquerors would force them into idolatry, so that their choice would become their punishment.
30. in the latter days, if thou turn to the Lord thy God--either towards the destined close of their captivities, when they evinced a returning spirit of repentance and faith, or in the age of Messiah, which is commonly called "the latter days," and when the scattered tribes of Israel shall be converted to the Gospel of Christ. The occurrence of this auspicious event will be the most illustrious proof of the truth of the promise made in Deuteronomy 4:31 .
41-43. Then Moses severed three cities on this side
44-49. this is the law which Moses set before the children of Israel--This is a preface to the rehearsal of the law, which, with the addition of various explanatory circumstances, the following chapters contain.
46. Beth-peor--that is, "house" or "temple of Peor." It is probable that a temple of this Moabite idol stood in full view of the Hebrew camp, while Moses was urging the exclusive claims of God to their worship, and this allusion would be very significant if it were the temple where so many of the Israelites had grievously offended.
49. The springs of Pisgah--more frequently, Ashdoth-pisgah ( Deuteronomy 3:17 , Joshua 12:3 , 13:20 ), the roots or foot of the mountains east of the Jordan.

Being A Muslim Soldier at Fort Hood
November 25, 2009 by TMO · Leave a Comment
IslamOnline.net & Newspapers
CAIRO – Every morning, Sgt. Fahad Kamal reports for work at Fort Hood military base to treat ailing soldiers returning from wars in Afghanistan and Iraq.
"Being a good Muslim means being good to everyone," Kamal, a Muslim army medic, told The Dallas Morning News on Sunday, November 22.
The 26-year-old, who served in Afghanistan before moving to Fort Hood, spends most of his time treating his traumatized fellow soldiers.
On November 5, Kamal heard the news that a Muslim army physician went on a shooting rampage in the military base, killing 13 people and wounding 30.
Major Nidal Malik Hasan, a Muslim army psychiatrist, is the sole suspect in the shooting.
Immediately, Kamal joined his fellows in rescuing the wounded of the attack, refusing to leave the base to see if Fort Hood needed help treating victims.
The Muslim combat medic said that Islam is against violence.
"That man happened to be a Muslim, but in our religion, we don't condone such violence."
*Fort Hood Tragedy… Muslim Soldiers Speak Out
Maj. Derrill Guidry, another Muslim soldier at Fort Hood, agrees.
"He (Hasan) cracked under the pressure of his own fears," he said.
"In terms of Islam, he was just plain wrong."
The Fort Hood attack drew immediate condemnation from all leading American Muslim organizations, including Council on American Islamic Relations (CAIR) and the Islamic Society of North America (ISNA).
US Muslim groups have also launched a fund to help the families of the Fort Hood victims.
Tolerant Army
Since joining the army, Kamal has been open about his Islamic faith, answering his fellow soldiers' questions about the religion.
"Jesus is one of our prophets as well," Kamal answers his fellow soldiers, to their great surprise.
When Kamal first decided to sign up for the army, his mom initially refused, fearing discrimination.
"I was scared," his mother, Nabeela, said.
"I didn't want him to be far from the family, because he is my oldest son. Father was going through chemotherapy at that time."
The mother had another concern.
"Are they going to look down on you?" she asked.
"Mom, this is America," Kamal answered.
At his military service, Kamal easily mixed with soldiers of other faiths, swapping gifts with friends at Christmas and feasting on both roast turkey and biryani on Thanksgiving Day.
Concerns have been growing about anti-Muslim backlash over the Fort Hood shooting.
US Army chief of staff General George Casey has warned that the attack could prompt a backlash against Muslim soldiers.
But Kamal says that he has never felt discriminated against as a Muslim in the US military.
He even sees the Army as more knowledgeable and tolerant of Islam than the general public.
The Muslim soldier recalls one day when he was bantering with a fellow soldier, when he ribbed his friend, saying "You loser!"
"You terrorist!" the fellow soldier replied.
Though the soldier was joking, the drill sergeant called the guy out in front of everyone.
"You window licker! You peanut butter eater! This Army is diverse," the sergeant angrily told the soldiers at the drill.
Muslim Patriot
In 2007, Kamal was deployed to a 15-month tour in war-torn Afghanistan.
During his tour in the southern province of Kandhar, Kamal packed a copy of Sura Yaseen, "the heart of the Quran," in the left chest pocket of his uniform.
The Muslim medic was valued by his commander for his native Urdu language skills, sometimes asking him to translate or brief troops on basic greetings.
He was also admired for remaining calm under pressure.
"I like helping people," said Kamal. "It feels good to see you made a difference."
During his tour, Kamal went on night patrols, where soldiers are encountered with improvised explosive devices.
"He's a very patriotic individual, and he enjoys what he does," Kamal's brother, Faez, 23, said.
Many Muslim soldiers have lost their lives during their military tours in Iraq and Afghanistan.
At Arlington National Cemetery, amid a sea of crosses, there are crescents carved on tombstones. There are Muslim names on Iraq war memorials at Fort Hood.
"We're serving and sacrificing alongside our fellow service members," said Jamal Baadani, a Marine Corps veteran who founded the Association for Patriotic Arab Americans in Military after the 9/11 attacks.
There is no official count of Muslims serving in the 1.4 million-strong US armed forces because recruits are not required to state their religion.
But according to the American Muslim Armed Forces and Veterans Affair Council, there are more than 20,000 Muslims serving in the military.

Mark Wahlberg on Rahm Emanuel: 'I absolutely love the guy'
By Kara Spak email@example.com January 16, 2013 11:20PM
Mayor Rahm Emanuel poses with "Broken City" director Allen Hughes (center) and star Mark Wahlberg during their City Hall visit on Monday, Jan. 7, 2013.
One hosts "Antiques Roadshow," one acts, and they share (almost) the same name. | Page 26

Mark Wahlberg has a man crush.
On Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel.
"He's the best," Wahlberg said while he was in Chicago recently promoting his new movie, "Broken City." "I absolutely love the guy."
What do you love about him?
"Everything," Wahlberg said.
"Broken City," which opens Friday, features Russell Crowe as a crooked New York City mayor. The mayor hires ex-cop-turned-private eye Billy Taggart, played by Wahlberg, to trail the mayor's wife, who may be having an affair. From the police department to the zoning department, Taggart discovers his city is dirty and seeks to redeem City Hall and himself.
While Chicago is no stranger to entrenched government corruption, Wahlberg says we should sleep soundly at night now that Emanuel is in charge.
"You should rest easy knowing that there is a man that cares that much," he said in a Peninsula Hotel room where he and "Broken City" director Allen Hughes sat for a day of interviews. "He's making it happen."
Nine years before "Broken City," Wahlberg produced "Entourage," an HBO series following the life of an up-and-coming actor, Vincent Chase, and his friends from Queens. The characters on the show, which ended in 2011, were modeled after Wahlberg and his Boston buddies. Chase's agent, Ari Gold, was played by Jeremy Piven and based on Ari Emanuel, Rahm Emanuel's younger brother.
During a lunch break from their press tour, Wahlberg and Hughes went to City Hall so Wahlberg could introduce Emanuel to Hughes. Hughes left impressed that the mayor apparently can give as good as he gets.
"Wow!" Hughes of the meeting. "[Emanuel] was sharp, fast, quick, funny and his mouth is like a machine gun. And I've never seen anyone match Mark verbally. ... He was pretty endearing. I was shocked."
During a preview screening in the South Loop, Wahlberg told the audience of enthusiastic lady fans that Chicago is "my kind of city — cold but real."
"Talk about a city that loves corruption," he said. "Thank God for Rahm Emanuel."
The next day, during the Sun-Times interview, he said Chicago should give Emanuel free rein.
"He's not going to tolerate any nonsense," Wahlberg said. "It's his way or the highway. I think based on all his experience, his passion, his commitment, his dedication to the city, they should let him do whatever he wants."
"It's true," Hughes added.
Neither Hughes nor Wahlberg said "Broken City" was meant as a commentary on the current widespread distrust and dissatisfaction with government at all levels. Wahlberg said he was more concerned about Chicago's high murder rate and entrenched street gangs. When he returns to Chicago this summer to shoot "Transformers 4," Wahlberg wants to set up some events for inner-city kids, like basketball games, and work on building television and recording studios in Boys and Girls Clubs. His foundation has already built two, in Boston and Los Angeles.
For Hughes, though, a foie gras hot dog from Hot Doug's seemed to leave more of an impression than meeting the mayor.
"They said even in the snow you have to wait in line," said Hughes, who didn't have to wait at all. Someone brought him the hot dog.
"It's a hot dog that's all kinds of fantastic," he said. "The hot dog is incredible."

Mazda CX-7 AC problems
stever Viva Las CrucesPosts: 42,391Yeah, but my point is that lemon law may not be your only option. You may still have a warranty claim. Knowing lawyers, it may cost too much to pursue it but sometimes a simple $50 demand letter gets results, or maybe you can get your local consumer protection agency to make a phone call or two.
They fixed it once and it broke again - not cool, if you'll pardon the (expensive) pun.
Let us know how it goes and good luck.Moderator
Minivan fan. Feel free to message or email me - email@example.com. -
lemoncx7 Posts: 3Well - I have perused a few options at once
1 - consulting a lawyer specializing in lemon laws
2 - writing Mazda directly
3 - finding a cheap way to repair it and then selling the junk...
two set of valve lifting arms / gears
two sets of rear wheel bearings
one blown turbo charger
two sets of seized air conditioning compressors
and more I don't recall at the moment.
less than 75,000 miles...
One thing I will never do again is believing "reviews" online.. Many "owners" would say how reliable their CX-7 have been, and were getting high mileage of something like 24 MPG on the turbo charged model. I have never found it close to that - the best I got in the 6 years of owning the vehicle was 19 miles...
Anyways, will keep everyone posted with my progress...

Got mulch? You can use less water and improve the health of your trees and plants by using a layer of mulch, three to four inches deep, around your trees. Instead of having your "yard waste" hauled away, you can mulch by simply allowing fallen leaves and other plant matter to stay on the ground.
Here's how to mulch:
1. Make or obtain mulch
To make your own: When you prune trees, you can chip the non-diseased branches into mulch using a chipper or your own pruning tools. Chippers will work on branches up to 3 inches in diameter. You can purchase or rent one from home improvement stores or equipment rental businesses.
Do not use grass clippings as mulch around plants. They smother the soil and do not allow oxygen to get into the soil. Compost your grass clippings instead.
Under existing trees and shrubs, allow the leaves and branches to fall and stay on the soil. Do not rake them up and throw them away, unless they are diseased.
2. Remove weeds
Remove weeds from around the base of the tree before mulching.
3. Break up the soil
If the soil surface is highly compacted, break up the surface using a metal rake or shovel before mulching.
4. Place the mulch
Place a 3- to 4-inch layer of mulch around the tree. Keep the mulch at least 2 inches away from the base of the tree. If possible, mulch all the way out to the dripline (the dripline is the area that reaches out from the trunk and extends to the end of the branches). Be sure to mulch over the berm if you've created one around your tree.
Additional mulching tips & resources
- Tree pruning and landscape maintenance companies are another good source for mulch. Some companies will deliver for free to avoid a disposal fee at the landfill.
- Mulch by the cubic yard can be purchased from tree and soil farms such as American Soil Amendment Products and Nursery in Simi Valley, B.D. White Topsoil, Inc in Torrance (310) 370-5511 or Home Depot and other large home and garden stores.
- Free mulch is available in six locations across Los Angeles from the City of Los Angeles Bureau of Sanitation Mulch Program, but this is really composted yard waste from the city's yard waste collection. It tends to be dense and is better used as an amendment added and dug into problem soils (compacted heavy clay or extremely sandy soil) rather than mulch to cover the soil.
- Do not buy sawdust or wood shavings for mulch. These won't allow enough air into the soil.
- Wood or bark chips work best when they are between one and three inches in size. Pieces smaller than that can smother the soil and do not allow enough oxygen to get into the soil. Larger pieces get kicked around or can cause tripping.

"The study is brought forth because we are concerned as U.S. distributors about the ability to continue to be able sell Mexican tomatoes with the tomato trade dispute that is going on between the U.S. and Mexico," Jungmeyer said.
'Wild assumptions'
Reggie Brown, executive vice president of the Maitland-based Florida Tomato Exchange, said he can't imagine a scenario where Mexican tomatoes would be excluded from the U.S.
"If you make wild assumptions, which they do in their study, you get wild results," Brown said. "Nothing in any of these issues would ever prevent Mexican product from entering the country. The issue is only the product entering the country under a free and fair-traded environment."
Scaring the public with scarcity or food price spikes is unfortunate, Brown said.
"FPAA has been fairly consistent in taking extreme positions all the way through this issue, including threatening and intimidating the produce industry with trade wars, internationally decreed sanctions, all other kinds of things," Brown said.
The scenario of Mexican tomatoes disappearing from U.S. grocery shelves is a real possibility, Jungmeyer said, if punitive or prohibitive antidumping measures are applied by the U.S.
Given that outcome, he said consumers could see prices double or more than double September through May.
Noting that the economic model would push prices more than $5 per-pound for some tomato varieties, Jungmeyer said the U.S. diet would suffer at a time when government agencies are urging greater produce consumption.
Jungmeyer told reporters that distributors of Mexican produce are fearful of antidumping duties on Mexican tomatoes.
"We feel (dumping charges) are unfounded. Growers haven't been selling to the U.S. market for years by selling below the cost of production," Jungmeyer said.
Jungmeyer said distributors suspect that if the tomato suspension agreement is terminated, as the Department of Commerce is contemplating, a new round anti-dumping investigations would begin shortly thereafter.
"If this is not renegotiated to the satisfaction of both the Department of Commerce and Mexican growers, it will put the United States and Mexico on a collision course that would have disruptions in trade all around," he said.

text: Having just come back from several weeks walking the Alpujarra mountains in Spain in these shoes, I can report that these are the best light hiking shoes I've ever had. They are light and very comfortable, have excellent grip and provide good support. I practically get blisters looking at new shoes - but not with these, not even once! And the black version let's you get away wearing these almost as 'normal' shoes. They are yet to be tested in wet weather, but for now I thoroughly recommend these fantastic shoes.

Hill Inlet in the Whitsundays is a stunning inlet located at the northern end of Whitehaven Beach on Whitsunday Island, the largest of the 74 islands in the Whitsundays. As the tide shifts, the white sand and blue hues of the inlet blend seamlessly to create a breathtaking mosaic. Hill Inlet is best viewed from the lookout at Tongue Point on Whitsunday Island. Most people moor their boats in Tongue Bay, take a dingy ashore and make the short uphill walk to the lookout for breathtaking views. If possible, try to reach the lookout when the tide is low to fully experience the beautiful fusion of colours that emerge. Not all operators visit Hill Inlet and the Tongue Point lookout on a Whitehaven Beach visit, so be sure to check before you book if you'd like to go to the lookout. There are several ways to experience the beauty of Hill Inlet. Many companies offer day trips to Whitehaven Beach and Hill Inlet by ferry, power boat or luxury yacht. Most overnight sailing trips also stop here. It's also possible to view Hill Inlet from the air by helicopter or seaplane.

Luncheon Bay is situated on the northern side of Hook Island and features pristine coral and superb marine life. Luncheon Bay is popular with beginner divers thanks to its easy beach entry option. Intro divers can enter the water gradually from the beach, allowing plenty of time to become accustomed to the dive gear and the water. Luncheon Bay has some great swim-throughs for scuba divers and the beautiful 'tunnel of love', which is an underwater canyon. If you would like to 'find Nemo', Luncheon Bay is a likely spot, just ask the friendly dive instructors if they can help you in your hunt. Also a good place to spot rays hiding in the sand or turtles feeding on the reef. Diving depth is three to 15 metres. Diving visibility is typically three to 15 metres. Good shallow coral cover to eight to ten metres, coral rubble and silty sand at depth. Large bommie on eastern point is of interest. Interesting terrain along the foreshore down to 10 metres, best along eastern side of bay with coral gullies and ledges. Divers and snorkellers can expect to see large fish including wrasse, sweetlip and red emperor. Open to northerly winds.

Daydream Island's amazing Living Reef is a must see on the island. Located at the entrance to the resort, it is one of the world's largest man-made living coral reef lagoons and features more than 80 species of marine fish and 50 species of coral. This microcosm of the Great Barrier Reef continues to capture the imagination of tourists young and old; with guests having the opportunity to hand feed resident stingrays, sharks and barramundi. Guests are able to get up close and personal with lagoon favourites including Pikelet and Pancake the stingrays, Bruce the sickle fin lemon shark and Brutus, a large barramundi. Free educational feeding sessions are held twice a day at 10.00 a.m. and 2.00 p.m. everyday, where guests have the opportunity to feed animals and learn about the marine eco-system. This allows people to get an invaluable glimpse of reef life while completely conserving the environment. Parents see a great deal of educational value in introducing their children to the Great Barrier Reef ecosystem and the beauties that live within it.

Hardy Reef, on the Great Barrier Reef off Airlie Beach, is home to the Reefworld Pontoon. There is spectacular fish life with Trevally, Coral Trout, Snapper and a host of smaller marine life as well as Giant Maori Wrasse and a two metre long Giant Queensland Groper that usually congregate for a free feed. Snorkelling is excellent, as is diving off nearby drop-offs where you'll find turtles, reef sharks and barracuda amongst a myriad of other intriguing reef species.
Fairey Reef, Great Barrier Reef, Whitsundays section, Whitsundays, Queensland, 4802 Website: www.tourismwhitsundays.com.au/destinations/great-barrier-reef Queensland NATATTRACT
Situated on the Great Barrier Reef, Fairey Reef has a number of excellent dive sites popular with local dive operators. Sites such as Henry's Bommie, Little Fairey Inlet, The Shoals and Tina's Arm are all at Fairey Reef. Henry's Bommie: On the north-western flank of the reef, Henry's Bommie is considered a premier attraction reaching from a depth of 12 metres to near the surface. A narrow gap opens into a cave which is worth exploring but beware the small opening. Inside you may find a huge clam and a resident turtle that is often spotted at night. Circumnavigation of the bommie is the best way to see it all and there is good coral cover and clouds of small tropical fish. Visibility: 10 - 20 metres Diving depth: 5 - 15 metres. Little Fairey Inlet: On the central western side of the reef, this is a classic dive starting at a wall along the entrance to the inlet at a depth of 16 metres. There are plenty of nooks and crannies to explore and fish life is abundant with brightly coloured angelfish, cod, trout and sweetlip often seen. Visibility: 10 - 20 metres Diving depth: 10 - 18 metres.
Northern side of Hook Island, Hook Island, Queensland, 4741 Email: email@example.com Queensland NATATTRACT 9143960 Phone Number: 61 07 4948 5900
Situated on the northern side of Hook Island, Maureen's Cove is a popular anchorage with sailors and divers alike. There are two dive sites at Maureen's Cove. At the back of the cove, on the western side of the beach is a series of bommies starting at 12 - 15 metres and rising to within three metres of the surface, parallel to the shoreline. Gullies and shallow caves make for an interesting dive, as does the abundance of medium-sized fish life. Along the Eastern edge is another good dive site known locally as 'Boulders'. Plate corals and other acropora dominate the shallow ledge which drops off as a small wall to 10 - 12 metres. This is also the best spot for snorkelling. The best corals, including large gorgonian fans, are near the point but beware of strong currents. Visibility: 3 - 15 metres. Diving depth: 3 - 15 metres. Bottom: large coral bommies and sandy bottom at back of cove. Good shallow coral cover with coral rubble and silty sand on the eastern side of the cove.

Situated just three kilometres to the west of Airlie Beach, on a north facing stretch of sand, is Cannonvale Beach. With a stinger net for safe swimming in the summer months, a children's playground, and a delightful cafe on the foreshore, Cannonvale Beach is a favourite spot for families to play. The Botanic Gardens are taking shape along the foreshore and are set to grow and develop over the coming years. The wreck of the Whitsunday Magic is a photographers favourite, making for some spectacular sunset photos.
Conway State Forest, Airlie Beach, Queensland, 4802 Email: email@example.com Website: www.nprsr.qld.gov.au/parks/great-walks-whitsunday/index.html Queensland SCENDRVWLK
On the rugged Conway Range behind Airlie Beach lies Conway State Forest, home to the Whitsunday Great!Walk. This beautiful forest contains lowland tropical rainforest remnants and picturesque rocky creeks. Volcanic activity millions of years ago created this rugged landscape and the offshore islands. Walking through this wildlife haven is a unique experience as the seasons come and go with different sights, smells and sounds. You may see the blue flash of a Ulysses butterfly after rain, smell lemon myrtle flowers in summer, or hear the distinctive call of the wompoo fruit-dove when the trees around you are fruiting. You will pass majestic tulip oaks on the first day, walk through lush palm valleys and moss gardens on the second, and finish on the third with views of the Whitsunday Islands through open woodland. As of November 2012, the Whitsunday Great Walk is now open to mountain bikes with sections of the 36 kilometre dual-use trail graded 2, 3 and 4 for mountain bikes.
Lindeman Island, Lindeman Island, Queensland, 4741 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Website: www.nprsr.qld.gov.au/parks/lindeman-islands/index.html Queensland NATPARKRES 9098014 Phone Number: 61 13 0013 0372
Lindeman Islands National Park is part of the world famous Whitsunday islands and Great Barrier Reef World Heritage Area. Aboriginal people referred to the main island, Lindeman, as Yara-kimba, the place of snapper-bream fish. The fourteen islands of the park feature a variety of vegetation types including rainforest in sheltered pockets, open forest in drier areas, grasslands and wetlands. Well-maintained tracks traverse Lindeman and Seaforth islands. While water is usually clearer on the northern end of outer islands, snorkelling over reef flats at high tide can still be rewarding. From May to September look for humpback whales. View sunsets over Neck Bay and admire spectacular vistas from Lindeman's Mount Oldfield. Birdwatchers will delight in more than 90 bird species that inhabit or visit the islands. Camping is permitted on three islands. Camping fees apply and bookings are essential. Book in advance for school holidays. Take water and a fuel stove. Check restrictions on activities such as spearfishing, collecting and fishing.
East of Alcyonaria Point, Hook Island, Queensland, 4741 Email: firstname.lastname@example.com Queensland NATATTRACT 9143959 Phone Number: 61 07 4945 3711
A popular bareboat anchorage, Butterfly Bay is situated on the northern side of Hook Island. There are limited public moorings and snorkelling can be enjoyed along the bay edge or just off the beach. Offering coral outcrops with shallow walls, the bay is populated by many small, colourful reef fish species. The best of the bommies is found in the centre of the bay, although it may be difficult to locate at high tide. Be wary of tidal currents when moving towards the centre of the bay, away from the edges. Visibility: 2 - 10 metres. Diving depth: 5 - 12 metres. Bottom: coral cover with large patches of coral rubble and silty sand.

What is the best way to download a large collection of CD's to a large hard drive that can be cataloged and accessed using an audio interface for playing over sound system? Are there companies that will do the downloading? asked Mar 26 '13 at 14:15 |
Google up "CD ripping service". There are lots. Some send back DVDs, some portable hard drives (from which you can transfer to whatever), there's one that even streams to Sonos equipment. If they transfer your files back to you on a high-capacity disk, you probably would not want to simply run that as your everyday source - it could crash. Search up a good NAS (Network Attached Storage (sorta a big disk on your network without it being a "server" but sorta is anyway) that uses RAID 0 (Redundant Array of Inexpensive Disks - this lets drives mirror each other so if one dies, you're still in business). Synology makes good ones, and small home versions aren't too expensive (versus Corporate-level gizmos). A good digital music library will 1) be well organized (a gigantic single-level directory is no good), 2) well tagged (titles, artists, year, etc., internal to each file), 3) include album art, and 4) be lossless or high-sample rate. Ripping CDs is not hard to do on your own. Yes, there is a hump to get over. And it's somewhat time consuming (but far far easier than converting LPs). Lots of good, open source software is available to do the job, so you only really have to buy storage hardware. Having your whole music library digitized lets you do more than "anything you want" with it, you can do everything you want to - everywhere, all the time. It's terrific. linkanswered Mar 27 '13 at 19:43 Wayne Ruffner |
I'd just find the FLACs I wanted off Pirate Bay and pull then down. I already own the CDs, so why do I need to digitize what I already own if someone else is sharing? linkanswered Apr 01 '13 at 05:19 Christopher |
If you happened to have bought those CDs from Amazon, Amazon will "give" you the files on their cloud. linkanswered May 04 '13 at 14:21 Kevin Kelly |

Benny Mardones
Mardones, nicknamed "The Voice" due to his near four-octave vocal
range and soulful, passionate delivery, has released his first album of all original music since 1999's Bless a Brand
New Angel. Entitled, Let's Hear it For Love, Benny has unleashed a
torrent of the fiery arena rock splashed with catchy hooks and melodic twists
with the help of producer, Jim Ervin. Touted by Variety as "hyperkinetic…
always on the make," Benny plans to continue his busy touring schedule
performing songs from the new album as well as classics such as "Into
the Night." Still one of Mardones' favorite songs to perform, "Into
the Night" is one of the top 25 "most played" singles in the
history of radio, gracing the airwaves over five million times.
has enjoyed an extremely successful twenty-five years as a songwriter and showman.
He has shared the stage with Fleetwood Mac and the Rolling Stones, and has played
alongside legends such as the Otis Redding band. In a Showtime tribute to rock
icon Roy Orbison, Benny performed with the likes of Bob Dylan, John Fogerty,
and Johnny Cash. Mardones' ability to compose music that transcends generational
gaps and typical pop-rock-r&b genre pigeonholes has much to do with his
achingly honest lyrics and soulful delivery. As Rolling Stone quips, his "gloriously
adolescent romanticism" appeals to all – regardless of age or musical
Pursuing a rigorous touring schedule over the years despite his recent diagnosis
with Parkinson's, Benny gathers his strength from his passion for performing
and his adoring fans. He notes that, "There are days where I wonder if
I am going to be able to use these vocal chords... if my legs are going to hold
me up. But at this point in my life, my fans are almost family – they
support me and they help keep me going. As long as they want to hear me sing,
as long as they want to come to the shows… I will pour every last drop
of myself into performing."
Benny's twelve-song Let's Hear it For Love album has been dedicated to his long time road manager
and dear friend, Tommy Piraino, who passed away recently from leukemia. The
song, "Just for you my friend," which features a short appearance
from Tommy's son, was penned as Benny grieved. Says Mardones, "There
are a number of extremely personal tracks on the album that I almost considered
not including. But I realized that one of the reasons my friends and fans have
been so supportive of me over the years, is that I refuse to hold back. You
come to my shows or listen to my albums – you get 100% uncensored me."
Benny is currently scheduling a number of upcoming tour dates, including various
special appearances at non-profit gatherings benefiting the disabled community.

As you might already know, last week Berlin went crazy for Fashion Week (and I really mean crazy!)
Germany's capital somehow is a parallel universe: forget everything you have on your mind when it comes to Fashion Weeks around the globe. I really do love those glamorous trips to Paris, New York or Milano, but my hometown knows how to do it in a completely unique way without losing the soul of celebrating fashion as a part of society, and as a true piece of art.
Perhaps that's the reason why Berlin's Fashion Week is more about the people & designers behind-the-scenes, making things happen through get-togethers, networking & natter. It's just a more 'democratic' way of dealing with fashion within a bubble that somehow effects everyone of us season after season.
Of course MCM was part of this fashion spectacle too! MCM was certainly a part of our wardrobe & part of the event agenda. As we've already presented the lovely pictures of the Brunch MCM hosted - today it's all about our personal MCM styles during Berlin Fashion Week in sumer 2013!
Do you remember our most fashionable store for menswear, SOTO? We did a little post about the guys behind when they launched the mind-blowing MCM Sneaker- and Backpack Collection last year. During Fashion Week the Torstraße, where Soto is located, is the ultimate place to be. Trendsetters, influencers and the big bosses of the High Street segment love to go there to socialite and have a short break.
I chose to go for my all-time-favourite MCM handbag in midnight black which has always remained faithfully chic but stunning throughout the seasons. I needed a really spacey companion during these Fashion Week events, and this beauty was quite the perfect companion. I paired it with a bright leopard dress which made a cheeky style-flirt my striped shirt. To round off my look I put on black boots- Hell yeahs, I will love this baby till forever.
I really had to dress comfortably that day... because I was going to meet the one and only Pharrell Wiliiams a few hours later!
This picture probably shows the ultimate Berlin-Signature Style: here it's all about being dressed comfortably, smart and fashionably at the same time. Being "fashionable" in Berlin doesn't necessarily include high heels and a lot of 'bling. The cool kids go for sneakers by day and then flats, open-tied heels or stilettos when the sun goes down. Perhaps your style-scene and the people whom comprises it are also an influence, however Berlin doesn't really stand for 'luxury' and 'glamour' in a traditional sense: it's more about looks that don't look that expensive at first sight, it's about understatement and an urban feeling, and a love for detail. That's the scene where this city's MCM lovers are at.
I love it because every city contains its very own unique trends, fashions and of course, MCM-styles!
My all-time favourite: MCM's beloved Cognac Visetos Drawstring Backpack. During Fashion Week it's ideal as it allows me to travel by bike in between events (because the streets are full of cars and there's always a little delay if you chose to go by cab), and believe-it-or-not many people over here wear those luxurious MCM backbacks. It's a perfect style-match for all fashionistas-on-the-go, and offers enough space for everything we need: laptops, cameras, mobile phones, pen and paper. This is love!
MCM Cognac Visetos Crossbody baby:
If you're now asking yourself why I went for dungarees, here's my explanation: In Berlin you totally can go for it. Since Alexa Chung, the Olsen Twins or Rihanna showed their love for that kind of trousers you can see them everywhere in the streets here. To make it look a bit more dressed I paired them with lace blows and golden chains that match the bag's golden details.
This MCM baby definitely was needed to fulfill the look, to make it look more classy and add a special twist!
All the best and lots of love,
yours Nike Jane

Make that UPState NY and I can come over for a bit.
- - - Updated - - -
Oh, Hi, Guys, by the way - been playing catch up and forgot I hadn't said hi to everyone, yet.
And I know, if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest . . .
evening everyone
been net shopping and thought I'd take a break for a little while
Hi pops and johan.
Just finished off my film from last night, bleeding terrible.
And swinging back by for a win -
Keeping out of trouble, Seth?
I know, that's no fun. . .
And I know, if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest . . .
Hi Bendy, Jay, and DQ
Jay, is MIB III worth buying on DVD..?
I've got the other two
Well depends on how much you like having complete collections. On the whole I would say no way BUT if it makes the collection complete then it would have some value....
Lefty is going to train me on the Indians medicinal ways... and I will be an apt learner.
Staying way out of trouble.
It was some dire britflick called Cockney's And Zombies,
I've got MIB III, just haven't got around to watching it yet.
Hi guys
If anybody here gives a shit, the Binky Boy Bus
pulled into Leftovers on the F&G highway. If
anybody is not interested it's no big deal.
Talk about TEAM effort, there, JayHawk.
Seth, I've been pondering your dilemma for the quarterly editions - How about
Benderboy's Boys of [season]
And I know, if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest . . .
Men in Black 3 was awful!!
Hi everyone.
Hi, Jason.
So, tell me, how do you REALLY feel?
BTW, have you seen Lincoln or Rise of the Guardians, yet?
And I know, if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest . . .
Just watched rise of the guardians, it was lame. The Jack Frost was a cute design though, that's about it.
Hi Owain
I didn't see the vampire Lincoln film, my dad is real excited for the hobbit, I'm going to see it with him.
Hi Jason and Jay, I haven't seen the abe lincoln vampire film either. I remember sitting in the cinema with my friends saying "we are NOT going to see that!"
Cant wait fr the Hobbit! (well, I've been waiting the last 8 years already!)
hey Bort, Lefty, Jason, and Alpha
so..I guess that's a 2 thumbs down on MIB III
film sequels are often like that. First time..great!, second time..ok, third time...should have stayed home
Hey Lefty, give me a chance, i'll be over to nab the good pics.
Pops. thats the idea quasar came up with, Winter, Summer. Spring and Fall collection, going along with it.
Welcome back, Jason, bort and Owain.
Vampire Hunter was shit, though the guy who played him when he was younger was droolworthy.
Gonna see The Hobbit once all the crowds die down, first time i've been to the pics since the last LOTR.
I hated MIB II. Three looked terrible. First one was okay.
Thanks, I think I'll go see it on Thursday, the last film I saw was Skyfall in October.
Y'all really stan for the hobbit huh?
Yeah Johan, aside from Red Dawn MIB was the worst film I saw this year, atrocious.
Goodnight guys, off to bed now
Night Owain.
And hi everyone, I just say everyone so I don't accidentally leave anyone out,
Night Owain.
I'll be off soon myself.
That sounds fun pops! I haven't been to a museum since........hmmmm...
I was a small child,
Has every museum got a T-Rex.
Haven't been back to the main museum since it got done up, hopefully the dino is still in the foyer.
Museums are awesome Mr Cupie doll... you should come to KC and let me show you all of ours... first Fridays is free admission to all the art galleries around town as well.... quite the way to meet gay men who arent simply into one thing in life.... after our art tour I can show you my artifacts.....
They are pretty neat, when to some art museums were I was, that was fun.
- - - Updated - - -
Oh Jay, such the sweet talker are you.
Thx Q-P for visiting over and leaving a note.
You must be a Sacramento Valley Boy,
You use your manners.
I don't know Owain but good night anyway.
The rest of you varlets,,,hiya or night night as applicable.
Donnie fixed my avatar and sig...I bet he wants a big
christmas present...lol thx DQ.
Sethberrt...help yourself.
I didn't have it on subscribe Lefty so I forgot.
And you're too smart for your own good too.
Smooth, JayHawk, very smooth
No, every museum doesn't have a T-Rex. And Sue is the most complete, articulated T-Rex in existance.
She is on tour right now. Actually, we have a resin cast copy - I don't know if the actual bones are on display in Chicago, or if they also display the resin cast.
The RMSC does have the Farview Mastadon - got dug up when they were creating a larger pond for a new golf course just South of here about 20 years ago. The bones aren't assembled but are on display - next to a fully built resin cast copy of the Mastadon. Nowhere near as big as Sue, but still pretty impressive.
One floor has a lot of the history of Rochester/Erie Canal, including a lot of the companies that got a start here - including Western Union among others. Another has an extensive exhibit on the Iroquois Nations - followed by representative exhibits of other Native American tribes across the country up to and including the Pacific Northwest.
The main floor includes a lot of hands on activities, some "submersibles" that simulate a trip under Lake Ontario to see some of the shipwrecks from Revolutionary and 1812 War periods. There are several areas with hands on exhibits on all matter of science and nature. Part of the RMSC includes the Strasenburg Planetarium. Star Shows, IMAX style movies, Laser Shows.
We also have The Strong Museum, which is host to the National Museum of Play and Toy Hall of Fame.
The University of Rochester has the Memorial Art Gallery
And there's the George Eastman House - Museum of Photography.
And I know, if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest . . .
Pretty lively for a Saturday night.
It's always lively when I've got you here with me Seth.
Cool you got to see it pops, oh, lefty I see your signature is a gif now, looks cool.
Haha, you won't be disappointed.
It was always a .gif. I found out that if a JUB Supporter Sig pic exceeds 200K, the forum compresses them and stops the animation.
I trimmed it a bit to get the file size under 200K so it would animate.
Seth, of course it's busy here - this is where it's at!
And I know, if I'll only be true, to this glorious quest . . .
while imprinting your arse was/is definitely on my agenda,
My hoof was not what I planned for those cheeks.
Well I welcome all helmet tracks .... okay maybe not all of them... but if I am getting the ranch and the new legal Mary Jane operation then I will be willing to jedi under the tutelage of one with much more horse sense than I.

CEO, YWCA Metropolitan Chicago
I first became acquainted with the work and mission of the YWCA in 2004. I was invited to attend YWCA Metropolitan Chicago's Leader Luncheon – Chicago's largest celebration of women leaders. Scanning the ballroom, reading signage and event materials, I remember thinking the theme of the luncheon must have been 'eliminating racism, empowering women.' However, as the event continued, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that what I presumed was the 'theme' was actually the mission of the organization.
Since that day, I've been committed to the YWCA's mission and the more than 173,000 women and families the agency helps each year. My support began by volunteering to serve on the YWCA's board of directors. As I learned more about the difficult economic circumstances facing many women in Chicago (and around the world), I thought, "What if these women could be inspired to move beyond their current situation? What if they were no longer viewed as insignificant – by themselves or others? And if this did happen, what possibilities would exist for women, families, communities, cities and, ultimately, the world?"
I carry these thoughts with me into my new role as CEO of YWCA Metropolitan Chicago, whose goal is to provide women and girls in metropolitan Chicago with the tools and skills necessary to triumph over challenging circumstances and improve their lives. Our women experience barriers to employment, inadequate childcare, lack of economic opportunities and emotional trauma caused by violence. These experiences alone are enough to prevent anyone from being empowered. With this in mind, we're constantly examining our services to better understand what it means to truly be an empowered woman.
We know that 'empowered' means different things to different people based on their unique backgrounds and experiences. In response, we developed an initial model for how we define a 'YWCA empowered woman' that begins with ensuring basic needs (i.e. food and shelter) and moves toward creating personal transformation for women and their communities. Our 'empowerment model,' however, isn't just limited to the women seeking our services. It applies to every woman, no matter what her individual circumstances may be – women like you and me.
To ensure all the women of Chicago contribute to the success of this great city, the YWCA community (those we serve and those who support us) must stand together and pledge: "Today I serve the world by being my most empowered self. I leverage my whole self and appreciate others for doing the same. In being our whole, empowered selves, we improve the world!"
Many people, after learning of my recent decision to serve as CEO of the YWCA, have asked me why I chose to move from the corporate world to the social change sector. For me, it was a simple decision. In order to create a better world, it will take corporations, government and community organizations working together to achieve lasting results – no one sector can do this alone. Together, we can create greater impact for all of humanity, and the YWCA is starting right here with the women of Chicago.
