"If there is a reason to start earlier, the rule has a clause for that."
The clause, which Black also cited, states "The commissioner may, depending on crop conditions and with the recommendation of the Vidalia Onion Advisory Panel, specify a packing date other than the Monday of the last full week in April."
EDITOR'S NOTE: During the editing process errors were inserted into the version of this story that went to press for The Packer's Nov. 18 print edition. The print edition incorrectly reports the new start date. The new start date is the Monday of the last full week in April every year. For 2014 that date is April 21. The print edition also incorrectly stated the date of a growers' vote regarding the change. The vote was taken at a May 30 growers' meeting. The Packer regrets the errors.

Sherrill Library is the main library of Lesley University and Episcopal Divinity School, located at 89 Brattle Street on the Brattle Campus in Cambridge, MA. It houses the major collections of books, journals, videos, and teaching resources, as well as study spaces, administrative offices, and the University Archives.
Sherrill Library, built in 1965 and named for Henry Knox Sherrill, the twentieth presiding bishop of the Episcopal Church is a joint Library for Lesley University and Episcopal Divinity School. Sherrill Library houses over 140,000 print titles and many print journal subscriptions in addition to a growing list of electronic resources. The various collections in the Library are strong in all curricular areas, with an emphasis on religion, biblical studies, Episcopal Church history, education, psychology, human services, management, environmental studies and expressive arts therapies. The Library is a member of the Fenway Library Consortium (FLC), a cooperating group of 16 libraries which allow students and faculty access to one another's collections. We also participate in Fenway Libraries Online (FLO), a subgroup of the Fenway Library Consortium which allows library users to check a union catalog of the holdings of 10 of these libraries.
The main library book collection is complemented by a Reference Collection which includes general and specialized reference sources in religion, education, psychology, social sciences, management, and the liberal arts. Standard sources, including encyclopedias, handbooks, indexes, almanacs, dictionaries, and directories, provide a core collection of basic reference materials. This collection remains in the library and is available for use on the premises by all users who visit the Doble campus. These physical materials supplement our electronic reference resources.
The Journals Collection includes all current subscriptions to journals and periodicals as well as bound back issues of many titles. Most extensive journal coverage exists in biblical studies, religion, education, psychology, and expressive arts therapies. Moderate coverage exists in the areas of human services, management, social sciences, and computers. Liberal arts, physical sciences, and general interest periodicals are covered selectively. The Library also subscribes to online databases which index articles in journals and periodicals. Full text articles are available in these databases and are accessible by authorized users from each school through their respective network portals. Print periodicals are available to all visitors who come into the Library.
The New and Noteworthy Collection includes books and other materials temporarily on display in the Atrium and represents a cross section of titles from the Library's new acquisitions. For a complete list of all new titles, please see our New Titles list. A small collection of popular fiction and nonfiction for casual reading is also housed here.
On the Lower Level of the Library building, the Teaching Resources Collection houses the a unique collection of teaching resource materials and an excellent juvenile literature collection.

First, you can assume that anyone who questions your definition of yourself (fringe high-end, sensitive ears) based on what equipment you own has deeper issues and displays their own ignorance by making such a tenuous connection (IOW, consider the source). If it sounds right to you, then it's right for you, period (ignore them). Also, we can only assume that you are indeed such a person. If you were not such a person, there certainly would be a low probability of you merely thinking you were such a person. Rest assured, Phil, the rest of us are with you; we'll begin by not questioning your premise.I am a fringe high-end audiophile cursed with really sensitive ears. Let's not stoop to the cheap shots and focus instead on solving an issue.
I have a new HR24-200 with a severe sibilance issue. Connecting the HR24-200 to the Samsung 650 series TV via a BetterCables HDMI cable...Has anyone else noticed this extreme exaggeration of SSSSSS sounds regardless of channel from the HR24-200? If so, what did you do to eliminate it?
I will say this; your ears are not so sensitive or golden that you are imagining sibilance or perceiving it where the rest of us just don't. You do have a real sibilance issue here. That you may have sensitive golden ears is really beside the point; it just makes the fact that there really is sibilance that much more annoying for you, likely.
Sibilance. There are really two definitions; one would be an unusually higher frequency peak in the "s" and "z" consonant range of human speech, compared to the rest of the band. The other is actual distortion at that frequency that sounds very similar, because there is a lot of aggregate energy from the distortion that manifests directly at that same frequency. Most electronic sibilance is of the second type (dropped mics can do this), but it sounds like what you are experiencing is of the first type. So it might aid you, and you have the ears for it, to listen closely to see if there is actual distortion there, or just an abrupt level change there.
Equalization is at best a workaround. It is best to fix the issue at the source. You would also need a 32-band EQ to be able to notch that frequency effectively (and you can't EQ actual distortion, only minimize it). a 12-band or less will distort the response too much for "golden ears". I own a 32, but good luck finding something that can be used in the digital domain or for 5.1. I don't think EQ is your anwer.
The other thing is the nature of digital audio. Once digitized, and assuming all parts are working properly, digital audio can't possibly become distorted without performing math on it; it is completely represented by binary coefficients, and they don't change unless we change them on purpose. Of course if you send digital audio where 0 dBFS is calibrated in the target system at one level into a destination system where it is calibrated at a different level (and that is technically a change in the math), distortion can occur.
But that does not seem to be the problem here either.
Sibilance or any other distortion in properly designed and working digital audio is rare, indeed; that is usually an analog issue (or issssssue, as you are unfortunately used to hearing it. Sorry, couldn't resist). But the critical thing there is "properly...working"; I suspect things are not working as they should, most likely in the DVR, and when things are not working properly, all bets are off and all of "what should be" regarding digital audio is completely out the window.
Audio arrives in your DVR (for HD sources) typically as AC3. It is then decompressed back to PCM for HDMI, I think, and DAC'ed for analog out. If the analog is good, that might point to the AC3 decoding in the DVR as the problem, or not. If both are bad, that points to either a problem in the DVR or the AVR (you could try the HDMI direct into a TV to eliminate the AVR), with that problem most likely close to the DAC or decoder (it may even be the same chip). That all has to work right for things to sound right, and there really isn't much more that could possibly go wrong.
So, the smart money here is on a defective HR24. There is a small possibility of simple idiosyncratic incompatibility between the DVR and AVR, but again, those would be the longer odds.
Were it me, and without more info, I would have the DVR exchanged.

How many of you interact with individuals who are really smart or competent but have poor interpersonal skills? On the other hand, how many of you are considered by others to be the one who is 'Socially Challenged"? Here are a few tips to dealing with both sides of the dilemma.
- Find something about them that you like.
- Engage them as a 'buddy' or share 'tips' on how they can improve their interactions with others.
- If they brush you off or are just plain rude, let them know what you need from them and why. If they continue to be difficult then chances are there are some other issues present. Talk with a supervisor or human resources person for assistance in the matter.
- The last option is to avoid them altogether if possible. While I do not recommend this, it may be necessary depending on the situation.
- Stop being defensive and do something about it. If at least three people think you are awkward in social situations then chances are – you are awkward in social situations.
- Find a personal or executive coach or therapist to help you become more socially aware. Most of the time, it is just a matter of identifying and understanding the environment you are in and the culture of that environment.
- Put forth a sincere effort and stick with it. It hurts at first and feels pretty weird, for you and others, but over time it will get better.

When violist Elizabeth Power was leaving her hometown to study at the University of Hartford, her mother sent her on her way with two worldly possessions: a fully-stocked toolbox and a television set.
The toolbox was so Power would be equipped to make minor repairs should anything break in her dorm room.
The television was to ensure that her typically studious daughter would not get so caught up in practicing that she'd lose touch with the outside world.
"My mother always wanted to make sure I was prepared to take care of myself," Power says. "She believed if you weren't fully trained by the age of 3, you were doomed."
She's joking — kind of.
Power's mother was an early childhood educator. Her father was a social worker, and her grandmother was a college English professor. A brainy 39-year-old with Juilliard training, Power is clearly the progeny of intellectuals, even on a day she claims to be feeling "loopy."
She's now in her seventh season as the executive director of the Perlman Music Program/Suncoast.
The program serves as the two-week winter residency for The Perlman Music Program (PMP) — an intense six-week music camp on Shelter Island, N.Y., that was founded in 1993 by Toby Perlman, the musician wife of violin virtuoso Itzhak Perlman.
A nonprofit organization, PMP/Suncoast is run by a skeleton staff and rotating cast of volunteers out of a small, unspectacular office near the USF Sarasota-Manatee campus.
Power, who prior to joining PMP/Suncoast ran Sarasota Orchestra's education program, is the backbone of the operation. She does everything from setting up music stands to bringing in alumna ensembles that perform at area schools.
"You kind of have to be a unique bird to make this work," Power says of her job. "I basically do everything: IT stuff, website stuff, whatever is necessary. It's like a small start-up, where the owner is required to do it all. You couldn't do this work without loving it."
Naturally, Power loves her work.
She grew up outside Washington, D.C., where she studied the viola and dreamed of becoming a chamber musician.
She says she chose the viola over its higher-register counterpart, the violin, because it had a deeper, guttural sound, or, as Power likens it to — "deep, dark chocolate fudge."
After receiving her bachelor's and master's degrees in music from the University of Hartford, she moved to New York City for a year of post-graduate work at the Juilliard School.
She took a job in a violin shop across from Lincoln Center, where she met two struggling musicians and in the spirit of breaking form, formed a rock band that played acoustic sets at dive bars and coffee shops in the East Village.
"These guys didn't even read music," Power says. "It was very fun and very freeing for me."
She was having so much fun as a rock musician that she even ordered an electric viola to play with the band. However, by the time the instrument arrived, she was working in the education department at the Sarasota Orchestra.
Like a lot of musicians who pursue a career in education over performing, Power hasn't looked back. She's an idealist, a go-getter and an impassioned big-picture thinker.
She says PMP — a program built on nurturing young artists in every aspect of their lives, not just in musicianship — is setting an example for other music curriculums across the country, be it at the middle school or conservatory level.
"Let's be truthful," Power says. "So much of the model in the past has been built on competing to survive. I met people at Juilliard who spent all their time in a practice room, afraid that if they made friends they'd get distracted. Wouldn't it be a friendlier place if we all just supported one another?"
After seven years with PMP/Suncoast, Power feels like she's watched the program and its young protégées grow up.
"The students have become my family," she says. "I've seen some of them go from sixth grade to college."
She's speaking of one student in particular — a violinist, now in his 20s, who performed his first Sarasota concert dressed in pajama pants.
"It was what he felt comfortable in," she says. "Toby is all about cultivating a performance experience that's safe and nurturing. To this boy, it meant wearing his P.J. bottoms. It was unusual, but sweet."
The Perlman Music Program/Suncoast runs Dec. 26 through Jan. 7, on the USF Sarasota-Manatee campus. The program's annual Celebration Concert is at 5 p.m. Jan. 7, at the Sarasota Opera House. Tickets are $35 to $75. If seats remain an hour before the show, tickets are offered to students and educators for $10. All PMP/Suncoast rehearsals are free and open to the public. For a complete schedule of events, visit perlmanmusicprogramsuncoast.org.

The Pawprints Rescue Center, which will not take dropped off dogs or cats, will focus on rehabilitating, socializing, and placing injured, abused, and needy dogs and cats.
This will be a non-euthanasia facility mainly focused on placing the animals that they treat into new homes, either locally or out-of-state.
"We want people to understand that there's a difference between us and the (Cleveland–Bolivar County) animal shelter," said Sherry Norquist. "We're not here to compete with the animal shelter. We're not here to take away from what they do. We are here to rescue and rehabilitate."
The Pawprints Rescue Center, which is planned to open in July, will be open in the evenings two to three days a week and all day on Saturdays in order to allow those with daytime jobs to be able to have access to the animals.
The building that will house the BCHS Pawprints Rescue Center was donated by Dr. Andrea Marble of the Animal Medical Clinic and will be run strictly on volunteer work, donations and grants that they hope to receive.
Jimmy McClellan, of ADT Security, also donated part of his lot to the Pawprints Rescue Center so the outside play area for the dogs could be expanded.
To help raise funds, the Pawprints Rescue Center will hold a garage sale of donated items in the parking lot on Saturday, which will start at around 6:30a.m.
Pawprints Rescue Center will also accept dog and cat food donations, as well as monetary donations to help feed the animals and fund the rescue center.
To make a monetary, food, or garage sale donation, or if interested in volunteer work at Pawprints Rescue Center, contact Norquist at (662) 719-8119.

Much will be written about the genius of the irreplaceable Roger Ebert in the coming days, but as one who had the honor of being Roger's colleague for the past twenty years, the first words that leapt into my mind at hearing of his passing were "generous," "kind," "humble," and "loyal."
When I joined the Sun-Times in 1992, Roger obviously was already a national figure, yet his phone call congratulating me on being hired by "The Bright One" was literally the first one I received.
"You're now part of a great team," Roger said, "And if there's anything I can do for you, don't hesitate to ask."
While clearly Roger didn't have to do it, he took it upon himself to open many doors for me in Hollywood, graciously letting the most important people in the film industry know that I was his colleague and he'd appreciate any help they could offer.
The "Ebert Golden Touch" was magical and never failed to provide access to many stars, directors and studio executives I initially would never have been able to reach.
Perhaps my favorite memories of Roger are the hectic, deadline-crunching moments we spent over the past couple of decades backstage at the Academy Awards, jointly covering the Oscar night frenzy, before illness prevented him from attending the show.
To simply watch Roger effortlessly bang out his print-ready analysis and insights into the awards — AS they were happening — gave me the perfect perch to observe first-hand the true depth of his brilliance.
While Roger was confident and self-assured of who he was, and the opinions he proffered to his millions of fans around the globe, it must be noted that the man was never arrogant, and exuded a humble charm that was so endearing.
At the dedication of Roger's star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame in 2005, he made a point of introducing me to acclaimed director Werner Herzog. "This is a fellow I am happy to say is both my friend and colleague," said Roger. "You should know each other. I like it when my friends can become friends."
It was classic Roger Ebert.

About the Event
This event has been scheduled to take advantage of the spectacular fall foliage around the reservoir. You've seen this reservoir many times as you drive along Route 128 in Waltham. This is a challenging course with rolling hills thru wooded areas and over newly completed overpasses. It begins and ends at the Reservoir Woods complex adjoining the reservoir which has parking for a thousand cars and room for a great post race celebration. This race gets its inspiration from an old nighttime event not held for many years but on almost the the same course. Because of the overwhwhelming response from the corporate community we anticipate a big turnout including a team challenge. It's also the cornerstone event supporting the (RAW) Race Around Waltham series.

"Does this blue and gold make my back field in motion look big?
This is a collegiate cupcake post with a fashion dilemma.
In a few weeks we're going to the LA Coliseum for the USC vs. Cal game.
And I don't know what to wear.
My fashion dilemma goes much deeper than knowing I don't look good in gold which is one of the colors for both Cal and USC.
In fact, the color is so unflattering to my face that I am even tempted to forgo bringing a pale ale to my lips in the stadium. However, I observe a strict 'say no to alcohol discrimination' policy on game day so if I must be hit with one fashion penalty, this is the one.
No one can say I'm not a team player! ;)
Surprisingly green is causing my conflict of whether I should choose Cal's blue or USC's cardinal to accentuate my golden brew.
Let me explain.
I was born to the Cardinal and Gold.
It's a family thing.
School spirit is defined by color .
There is no grey area.
And I've been bleeding cardinal and gold all my life.
Cal is being beary, beary good to our son with his graduate studies and therefore to us. In fact Cal is being so good there is a glimmer of hope of one day replenishing the dream kitchen/travel/emergency liposuction (and no, I haven't but I like the security to know I can and I've learned never say never) fund that took a detour while paying for his bachelor's degree.
What's a USC alumna/Cal mom to do?
When I ventured into the enemy's bookstore for the move-in weekend of son1 I could only bring myself to buy a small decal and that was only because my maternal instincts kicked in to support my child. This weekend I warmed up to a Cal Tervis Tumbler I found in Bed, Bath & Beyond.
Small steps. Small steps. I cannot commit to apparel yet but Mr. P. M. has got that covered as his favorite team is whoever is playing USC (grrrr!) but cupcakes are a big step for me. :)
I don't know if my appreciation for green will dictate my wearing blue on game day but like all tough decisions they can usually be solved over sugar and butter and a cup of coffee so I'm lettin' my cupcakes do the talkin'.
I may wear blue and gold on the outside...
... but I'm cardinal and gold on the inside, baby! ;)
Topper Instructions ~
Toppers are easy to make.
- Google your college logo, download and print.
- Cut a larger circle out of a card stock paper (the blue polka dots is scrapbook paper and matches the cupcake wrapper).
- Using double stick tape or a dab of glue, attach the logo circle to the colored circle.
- Using a lollipop stick snapped to size, attach the stick to the topper circle with regular tape.
- You could make a backing with another paper round if you like.

Pakistani-American Community Peace Rally in Downtown Houston
Office bearers and members of four Pakistani-American organizations did a Peace Rally in downtown Houston in front of the George Thomas "Mickey" Leland Federal Building this past Friday. This rally was called by Pakistani American Council of Texas (PACT), Pakistani American Society of Texas (PAST), Pakistani-American Association of Greater Houston (PAGH), and Pakistan Chamber of Commerce USA (PCC-USA).
"As everyone knows,, the NATO attacks of November 26th, 2011 on the Pakistani soil, resulting in senseless loss of 24 brave Pakistani soldiers, is not only a tragedy for the families of the dead soldiers, but a violation of sovereignty of an independent country Pakistan; and a harsh setback to the close friendly relationships between the United States and Pakistan. Several days have passed since November 26th, and no appropriate steps and measures have been taken by NATO / USA, to restore this relationship of USA with Pakistan. It is in the national interest of USA that this relationship between USA & Pakistan must be salvaged, so that peace and stability may come to the strategic region of South Asia, which is tied with the tranquility & prosperity of our world. For this purpose, this "Peace Rally" has been called by the Pakistani-American Community in Houston, where we have invited members of the community and all other communities & people of conscience, to come out for the sake of peace in the world", said one of the press statement of the Peace Rally.
A resolution was passed; read on the occasion by Sajjad Burki (PACT) & Taslim Siddiqui (PAGH); and then given to the representatives of Congresswoman Sheila Jackson Lee and US Senator Kay Bailey Hutchison, so that they can take this message of the Pakistani-American Community to the Congress.
Sajjad Burki (PACT), Taslim Siddiqui (PAGH), Saeed Gaddi (PAST), Pervez Khan Swati (PCC-USA), and Khalid Khan (People's Party) lead the rally in saying the various slogans. Each participant was holding message cards and banners with appropriate messages; like
"Strong US-Pakistan Friendship is in the National Interest of USA";
"We Strongly Condemn the Senseless Killing of Pakistani Soldiers By NATO Forces – Peace Rally Organized by the Pakistani-American Community";
"Let's Be Friends – Not Masters";
"Pakistan Needs Friends – Not Masters";
"World Needs Peace – No Wars";
"No Wars Mean The Prosperity of USA";
"Senseless Killings of Friends – Not in Our Interest";
"Pakistan: The Best Ally of USA";
"Cost of War against Terrorism – Pakistan Has Lost 36,000+ Lives, including 3,000+ Soldiers";
"Cost of War against Terrorism:
Pakistan Has Lost $80-Billion+"
"Brown University August 2011: US will have spent a total $3.7 trillion on wars in Iraq, Afghanistan, & Pakistan, costing 225,000 lives & creating 7.8 million refugees, by the time the conflicts end…";
"Drones are Killing Many Innocent";
"Lets' make Friends & Not Foes – Stop the Mindless Killings";
"President Obama: Lets' Be Champions of Peace – Yes: We Can !!!";
"Pakistan: The True Friend of USA – Treat Her Like One…";
"Another American for Peace – Another Patriot for Peace";
"Have the Right to Remain Silent – But Not on Senseless Killings";
"Make Soup & Tea – Not War";
"War Is Expensive – Peace Is Priceless".
Resolution Presented at Peace Rally:
Strong Condemnation of the Senseless Killing of Pakistani Soldiers by NATO Forces
We, the people, gathered here this day, Friday, December 16th, 2011, in front of the Federal Building at 1919 Smith Street in downtown Houston, do hereby RESOLVE,
* That November 26th, 2011, was one of the darkest days in the war on terror, when NATO forces attacked the soil of Pakistan, resulting in a senseless loss of 24 brave Pakistani soldiers;
* That this is an attack on the sovereignty of Pakistan; a harsh setback to the relationship between these two important allies; and a tragedy for the families of these soldiers;
* That the United States and NATO must offer an immediate and explicit apology to Pakistan for the loss of life and injuries that have been inflicted;
* That the United States and NATO must demonstrate that they are taking concrete and transparent steps to ensure, such an incident will never occur again;
* That appropriate reparations must be made to the families of the dead and wounded;
The events of November 26th, 2011, in a matter of moments, obliterated months of careful and promising work towards improving U.S.-Pakistan relations.
Yet, we the Citizens of USA, are confident that if swift actions (as resolved and mentioned above) are taken, we can indeed rebuild a relationship based on trust and mutual respect.
Tasleem Siddiqui, President, Pakistani American Association of Greater Houston
Sajjad Burki, President, Pakistani American Council of Texas
Saeed Bashir Gaddi, President, Pakistani American Society of Texas
P. J. Khan Swati, President, Pakistan Chamber of Commerce, USA
This resolution hand delivered in Houston on Fri, Dec 16th, 2011to State Department and Congressional Office of Honorable Sheila Jackson Lee; and copies be mailed to Congresspersons of Texas & some other States – Contact for this Resolution: Sajjad Burki 281-236-9492 / Tasleem Siddiqui 281-236-7597 / Saeed Bashir Gaddi 832-277-6699 / P.

click image to zoomTara SchupnerBree Liscinsky, Nielsen Perishables Group account manager, and Don Ladhoff, U.S. Potato Board retail program consultant present the USPB's retail outreach efforts during a domestic marketing session at the board's annual meeting March 14 in Colorado Springs.COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. — Even as it faces a medley of challenges, including the loss of longtime president Tim O'Connor and declining domestic consumption, the U.S. Potato Board is charging full steam ahead with its international outreach and domestic marketing efforts.
President and chief executive officer Tim O'Connor, who is departing the USPB for a new marketing group, Avocados from Mexico, set the tone early at the board's 40th annual meeting March 14-15 by balancing cautious optimism with bluntness.
"I'm not going to filter this. I'm going to say it as I see it," he said. "Fries and chips … those are on the hot list for causes of obesity. Every day, there are people who are blaming your products."
After O'Connor's presentation, board staff and consultants used breakout sessions — a new format this year — to brief attendees on the board's efforts in public relations, retail programs, foodservice outreach, consumer advertising and marketing research.
Flavor, freshness, convenience
In each session, presenters stressed the importance of an integrated approach centering around the board's hypothetical target consumer "Linda," the wife and mother who makes the decisions about what to buy and cook for her family. Those decisions have changed over the years. Consequently, in order to get "Linda" to cook potatoes more often, the board's campaign has to not only promote the nutritional qualities of potatoes, but also market quick and easy ways to cook them — a message emphasized across most of the breakout sessions.
"There is an opportunity to be more overt with our healthful messaging, especially among Lindas," said Kate Thomson, senior research manager with the Sterling-Rice Group. "But health is not the only driver — we need to continue featuring flavor, freshness and convenience as well."
"Awareness about the nutritional benefits of potatoes is still a struggle, and we're keeping it at the foremost of our communications," said Meredith Myers, USPB public relations manager.
The board's investments in marketing and public relations efforts are well worth the money, Timothy Richards, a researcher at Arizona State University, said during a Friday presentation on the results of a five-year evaluation of the USPB, required by the U.S. Department of Agriculture.

Leader: The season of Lent calls us to journey along the edge, to anticipate that final trip to Jerusalem.
Group response: Lent call us to the cutting edge, when the wheat falls to the ground and new life comes forth.
Today, like Jesus, we may be facing a barren desert
We may be tempted to do the wrong thing
To do something selfish
To do something hurtful.
About the life of Jesus of Nazareth, the Bible records some of the story
A man who walked on Earth, helping us seek the God of eternal glory
Avowed atheist Susan Jacoby recently created a dust up with a recent article in the New York Times Sunday Review entitled, "The Blessings of Atheism." She wrote in response to all the god-talk that appeared in the immediate aftermath of the Newtown massacre; with all those unanswerable questions or inadequate answers to human suffering and death so often peddled in popular religious belief.
So too, not long ago author and "non-believer," Christopher Hitchen's posthumously published his little book Mortality; recounting his rambling thoughts on his own imminent demise; after a terminal diagnosis left him a sufficient number of days to find himself "deported from the country of the well across the stark frontier that marks off the land of malady."
But what, or where to, after that? What if this really is all there is?
It seems there has always been the human hankering to imagine all kinds of fanciful notions, in our attempts to recapitulate our mortal existence into something more than it is. Many religious traditions, including centuries of "mainline" orthodox Christianity, employ great mythic stories to describe a life subsumed into something greater than we can either know, or grasp, except by "faith." Heaven knows, some folks try to better themselves, merely in the hope of a remote possibility there something more, after our death, which is a certainty. But in the end, is it all dust and ashes? And is that OK?
This is the liturgical time of year when many in the Christian tradition undergo a seasonal pilgrimage in which the faithful are reminded at the onset we mortals are nothing more than dust. And so we will one day return to that from whence we came. Then the traditional forty days end with the perennial re-enactment of a passion play commemorating the mortal demise of the one whom Christians even these many centuries later would profess to follow.
Many do so in the hope of some kind of immortality for themselves in some indecipherable form or other; attributing to Jesus a "resurrection" that means the same thing to them as god-like immortality; while others of us may find such imaginings to be not only reasonably implausible, but of less importance than what we take to be of greater significance and meaning in this faith tradition.
Otherwise, the vainglorious hope of immortality can become so enshrouded in our mortal fears that we become – like Lazarus in his early grave – so wrapped up in death that we fail to truly acknowledge and appreciate the gift of our mortality for what it is; nothing more, nor less.
With the certain assurance then that we are but dust and ash, we can ask ourselves if the gift of our mortality is not only enough, but more than enough? And if so, as the psalmist says, how then shall we "number our days, that we may apply our hearts to wisdom?" (Psalm 90:12)

Ahead of 2012, Ukraine reclaims iconographic and football treasures
Friedrich Christian Delius in his 1994 novella, The Sunday I Became World Champion, imagines a pastor's son listening to Herbert Zimmermann's radio call of the 1954 World Cup final. Self-conscious about speech impediments accentuated by the repressive piety in his home, the boy dreams of something new in the open play of local side FC Wehrda 1922. As it did for Ukrainian Yury Olesha a half-century before, football to this lad brings a new culture. One momentous Sunday, the boy listens to the radio in his father's study: suddenly, German soccer gods fashion miraculous passing combinations and crucifixes do not drop from the walls.For those of us who have installed soccer gods alongside, or even above, icons of faith, what do these gods tell us? I wonder about this as Zinédine Zidane stares back from the bedroom dresser each morning. The Berber features, hooded brow, smirking self-deference and loosely knotted tie take on saintly glow from capiz-shell backing—a mother-of-pearl effect that my wife conjured in a brilliant soccer-themed triptych a few Christmases ago.
Zidane in trinitarian formation with Thierry Henry and Cesc Fàbregas represents the unknowable. No matter how close I bring my face to his North African hues and elliptical halo, the distance remains. This is the function of modern football iconography in daily press, blog, video game and replica shirt—to enhance separation between mortals and the soccer gods. Placing footballers in devotional setting emphasizes, with comic effect, a gulf that can never be bridged (see 25 Dec 06).
The contrast with religious imagery becomes clear when studying Ukraine, a Slavic nation with a thousand-year-old iconographic tradition and growing profile in world football. With UEFA's confirmation last month of Kyiv, Donetsk, Kharkiv and L'viv as Euro 2012 host cities, those interested in intersections between football and faith, elite sport and memory have a fascinating case study.
Ukraine has experienced religious resurgence dating back to shortly before independence from the former Soviet Union in 1991. Its passion for football in the past century has filled some of the psychic space that religion, due to war, occupation and attendant cultural repression, struggled to claim. The first regional soccer exhibition occurred in 1894 in L'viv, the western university city that was also Ukraine's artistic center during the high period for religious art starting in the 14th century.
Rebuilding Ukrainian identity has become part of the national project. Religious icons, featuring doleful faces and almond-shaped eyes of saints and angelic host, their gestures laden with liturgical import, have reemerged from church attics and bell towers. Icons also decorate buses (marshrutkiy). Current president Viktor Yushchenko, facing almost certain ouster in the first round of presidential elections Jan 17, maintains an extensive collection, exhibited two years ago at the Ukrainian Museum in New York. As with memories of football, Ukraine continues to cherish icons' significance. "They are fundamental components of their historical context," Yushchenko says, "as well as the spiritual expression of the interplay of various cultures." These were folk arts, saints personified as everyday people who pointed to the unseen. They were important in conveying stories of faith to the unlettered.
From Polish television, a UEFA video promoting the Euro 2012 logo.
Yushchenko, rival Yulia Tymoshenko and other political and sporting elites attended the unveiling of the Euro 2012 logo Dec 14. Was it right, the English-language Kyiv Post asked, for the logo, featuring cartoon-like tulips daubed with colors of Ukraine and co-host Poland, to be on view at Mykhailivska Square? At night, glow from the jolly structure clashed with the baroque exterior of St. Michael's monastery, demolished by Soviet authorities in the 1930s and then reconstructed after Ukraine's independence. The stunning cerulean edifice sits atop Dnieper River bluffs where one thousand years ago monks sought refuge from religious opponents. Depending on the angle of the photograph, the gilded spires of St. Michael's of the Ukrainian Orthodox Church–Kiev Patriarchate seemed to emerge from the football blooming on top.
Unlike the late Russian Orthodox patriarch Alexei II, obliged during a national address to mention a Russian quarterfinal victory at Euro 08, Ukrainian church leaders, to our knowledge, have not spoken about the potential of the 2012 European tournament. Svyatogorsk Lavra, however, a monastery near Donetsk in the east, is undergoing renovations with hopes of becoming a 2012 base. This may be good news to organizers. According to director of a citizens' group monitoring Euro preparations, Donetsk intends to compensate for lack of hotel rooms by housing 16,000 visitors in tents. In Poland, the Roman Catholic Church plans to recruit volunteers and to use catechetical classes to help address anti-Semitism in football. A church representative tells Agence France-Presse, "It is the vocation of the church to accompany man everywhere, including sport, the physical dimension of which must have a spiritual dimension also."
With the Africa Cup of Nations beginning Jan 10 in Angola, the World Cup in South Africa and Euro 2012 in Poland and Ukraine, world football and confederations have turned to hosts emerging from colonialism and repression. Clearly, each case differs. In Ukraine, one senses a nation, like most nations, sorting through its history and trying to overcome a conspiracy of silence over hidden shame.
Last year we alluded to interwar Jewish teams from Nadworna, part of a network of shtetls in Galicia in western Ukraine (18 Jun 09). The nationalist Ukrainian stronghold that changed hands among Poland, Habsburg Empire, Austria, Ukrainians, Nazis and Soviet Union contained hundreds of Jewish sporting societies energized in many cases by Zionist passion. "In the interwar period," says Vladimir Levin, researcher in the Galicia and Bukovina Project at Hebrew University, Jerusalem, "almost every town in Galicia had a Jewish sport club, [the] majority with football teams."
Jewish memorial books, called Yizkor, preserve extraordinary tales of sides negotiating their outsider status. Ha-koach of Nadworna played regular Sunday matches against local teams—"branches of the Goyim"—and nearby towns. Israel Grauer recalls fights, one starting after injury to the Ha-koach goalkeeper, that "continued for a few days after the game … moved to the streets of the city and even to the city center."
Football insinuated itself into everyday life. Ha-koach Nadworna raised money with costume parties at Purim. Other Yizkor chroniclers have no trouble re-creating lineups, in 2-3-5 formation, from big games. Gaining legitimacy from sport administrators and acquiring space to train presented familiar obstacles. Natanel Farber in the memory book for Podvolochisk, Ukraine, writes that the local Maccabi side would "play soccer in the field between the 'Temple' and the new park. … The grass was low and the ground smooth. The field had just one drawback: it was on an incline. The team which played on the higher side during the first half would always win."
Most stunning is a 5,000-word remembrance from Leopold Held concerning sporting culture in Borislav (Boryslaw), southwest of L'viv. Within a privately published manuscript, A Tysmienica nadal plynie (The Tysmienica Still Flows), named for the river that gurgled with crude after oil was discovered in the 19th century, Held compiles a unique football history. The story congeals around a field on which boys threw bricks, stones and bottles at each other until teenagers took to kicking around a rag-ball (shmacianka):
A shmacianka was usually made of a long sock, stuffed with old shmatas [rags], and formed into a ball with a thread and a rope. It was a very popular game. The kids divided into teams and scored goals. The goal line was defined by two large stones placed seven and a half steps away from each other, the steps measured by the tallest player.
The field became a stadium. Rag-balls after World War I became cows' bladders, then a leather ball that presaged the first sport club. Held lists the club's first team: Chayim Aberbach, Marian Bauer, Lipa Buchwalter, Ulek Dienstag, Blum Eisenstein, Munio Hauser, Hebik Heimberg, Srulek Littman, Józek Luks, Hertz Schaller, Hertz Schmer, Munio Seidman, Adolf Wagner, and Kuba Weitz.
We could write whole chapters about each of them, four physicians, four engineers, and other highly qualified professionals. The surviving members of our generation of old-towners who survived the war and in their sixth and seventh decade know and remember these names and know who is who or who was who.
The club was renamed Ha-koach, relocated to a green field owned by Jewish oil men who vacillated over allowing football on the Sabbath, who then relented, and developed an administrative apparatus on the way to the top level of Polish football. Originally, the team included Gentiles, but Held later recounts players intentionally losing a match to a team from L'viv in order to avoid anti-Semitic recriminations. Despite a 3–2 victory, L'viv supporters smash windows of the Borislav bus. "This is what happens when nationalism enters into sports," Held concludes.
In narratives from a time when football was young, Held and others demonstrate how the sport both defined and separated peoples. And despite the pluralist language of Ukraine's modern constitution, anti-Semitism lingers in a nation with the world's fifth-largest Jewish population. A 2006 report states that Nazi and anti-Semitic symbolism remain in evidence weekly in Ukraine's football stadiums.
But, while many Jews might disagree, the stereotype of the Ukrainian as "natural anti-Semite" does not hold. Throughout the literature one finds gestures of accommodation and tolerance among Jews, Ukrainians and other ethnic groups. Writer Ivan Franko could in fin de siècle Galicia raise parallels between Ukrainian and Israelite searches for a homeland. His series of stories about Borislav peasants and oil workers served as a strikers' textbook that Franko hoped might sow seeds for interethnic socialism in his homeland.
Measures to remember manifold plights that made Ukraine and neighboring Belarus ground zero for 20th-century suffering continue to gain momentum. "It must be remembered," said architect Volodymyr Zhuravel on his monument that since Sept 09 commemorates the 33,771 victims at Babi Yar, the bloodiest killing field in a holocaust by bullets. Almost forgotten among human losses in World War II, 250,000 items disappeared from Ukrainian museums along with 50 million books.
Will football and Ukraine's faith community grasp their potential to help shape post-Communist life and to fill in historical gaps?
The metaphor of iconography offers instruction. Restoration experts over the past hundred years noticed that icons dulled by time possess brilliant colors underneath. In a 1916 essay on Russian iconography, Eugene Trubetskoi writes: "The darkened faces of saints in our old churches were due to our indifference and neglect, and partly to lack of skill: we did not know how to take care of our treasures."

Only, the general consensus seems to be, if Google brings a unique selling point to the table that Facebook doesn't offer. "It must prove that it can offer a new dimension to existing social networking sites, which I am yet to see", says David Bashford, director at community software provider Siteforum. "It feels like Google is trying to force a platform on consumers, leading it to already fail in competing with Facebook – which had the first move advantage and was launched and developed in tune with customer demand.
"Many marketers have had their fingers burnt by investing time and money in networks that haven't taken off, so I would imagine Google+ has its work cut out, trying to attract the marketing industry while gain traction amongst everyday internet users," he adds.

Speaking to the BBC last week, Benitez - who has admitted several times that he hopes to return to Anfield one day - conceded that Liverpool was a 'team in transition', but added that after spending 'big money', the club's premier league results 'have to improve'.
In an interview with FIFA.com few days ago, Benitez was asked whether Daglish could achieve the same success as he did at the club. In previous interviews, the Spaniard has lavished praise on Dalglish and his ability to bring success to Liverpool, but this time, he was a little more non-committal:
"It depends if he has the support of the owners. They have spent a lot of money but can they continue spending big money? I don't know.
"If you want to challenge against Manchester United, Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester City and Tottenham, you have to have a very good plan and keep spending some money wisely".
Implicit in Benitez's response is (IMO) the suggestion that FSG may not be willing to 'continue spending big money' as a result of Dalglish's failure to spend his transfer funds 'wisely'.
Benitez will tell anyone who'll listen about the problems he had with the Owners during his time at Liverpool, but as I argued yesterday, FSG support for Dalglish may not be as strong as people might think.
Benitez also admitted that he 'had to' leave Liverpool, but expressed regret at not being able to work with the current owners:
"With the money they have spent and the squad that we had, we could have been even better".
As much as I'm a major critic of Benitez, I'm confident that if he'd stayed at the Anfield, he would've spent FSG's money in a much more effective manner. Having said that, in the BBC interview referenced above, Benitez admits that he also wanted to sign Andy Carroll, so it's by no means a foregone conclusion (!)

Diagonal Multi Texture Dress
Love this Dress
I love this dress, its sexy & still classy. The fabric is really nice, it hugs & is thick so it will hold you in & the texture will hide any flaws. The top isn't too revealing & the length isn't too short to be appropriate for a nice dinner.
April 3, 2013
6 sizes too small
The dress itself is ok, but the sizing?! TERRIBLE!!! I'm 5'4" and 117, going by the other reviewers that said that the dress runs big, I'd like to ask, on who, a toddler?? I ordered the small and I couldn't even get it over my head! It is not stretchy at all. If you're going to purchase I would def go up a size, at least. I returned it the next day.
March 20, 2013
Exactly what I was looking for
I wanted a simple black dress & this was perfect. I love the textured fabric bc w/ bodycon dresses if the fabric is too thin, it can be unflattering. The fabric on this dress is very thick, almost as if its lined inside. Feels high quality. So between the thickness & the texture, it will hide any cellulite. However its still a tight dress so it wont hide a belly. I also love that I can wear a bra w/ this dress easily. Its a nice dinner dress bc its sexy w/o being too sexy.
March 16, 2013
Darling, sexy, fun!
This dress is great in every way. It's comfortable and looks hot, but not over the top. Beautiful neckline shows off cleavage, but in a classy way. Short enough to emphasize legs, but doesn't ride up. I like the black color because it's sensuous, yet not screaming, "check me out!" If any one looks your way, though, you feel glamorous.
February 27, 2013
Very form fitting
I am very petite, about 5'0, very small bust but, big booty! I really liked this dress because its hard to find things that are just my size. This dress is very tiny, but stretches! I would definitely not recommend this dress to anyone with a big belly because this dress accentuates bust, hips, butt, and belly. Very form fitting, and I am in love with it!

I shouldn't have worried so much. The Giants had that down, obviously. Then again, my worrying did create this, so no complaints there.
Yes, they were every bit as delicious as they look, if I do say so myself. And the Giants were every bit as wonderful as the box score might imply. Nine runs in the actually-tolerable Atlanta weather (77 at gametime, aka miracle) and Barry Zito pitched not at all like a melting ice cream cone, in addition to driving in a run and altogether making me wonder how I ever complained about him. Buster Posey was kind of the star of the show – there were a lot of stars, but he was one of the big ones – driving in five runs on three hits. As noted yesterday, Atlanta is close to home for him and family and friends come to watch him droves, so his performance was fantastic in more ways than one.
A tidy 2.0 has turned into an even tidier 3.0, which is the biggest lead the Giants have had in nearly a year, if memory serves me right, so basically everything is golden right now. This roadtrip is off to a much better start than the, um, last one. Much better.
The one piece of bad news from the game was Hector Sanchez's injury. He was placed on the 15-day DL today with a leg injury and Eli Whiteside is on a plane to join the team in Atlanta as I write. A lot of people seem terribly dismayed by this and while it's certainly not good news, I am inclined to think the drop-off in production from the backup catcher is not going to be all that tremendous. Is Whiteside likely to tear it up? Nah. He batted .197 last year. This year, Sanchez is batting .281. That's clear enough, but I still think Whiteside will be just fine for the team for a couple weeks. Also, with Buster Posey Being Buster Posey, it may or may not make a terribly huge difference.
If it does, there are always blueberry muffins to be made. It's been too long since I've done those.

Paired to Perfection: Daniel Boulud's Corn and Heirloom Tomato Tart - Page 2
By Daniel Boulud
Serves 6 to 8
The Tart Shell
Combine flour, butter, and salt in a food processor and pulse until crumbs form. Add egg and pulse until the mixture resembles moist curds. Turn the dough out onto a work surface, and knead once or twice to pull dough together. Flatten into a disk, cover with plastic wrap, and refrigerate for at least 1 hour. (At this point, the dough can be kept refrigerated for up to two days or frozen for up to a month.)
Center a rack in the oven, and preheat to 350°F. Cut a 10" dia. round of waxed or parchment paper. Place a fluted 9" tart pan with a removable bottom on a baking sheet. Lightly dust a work surface and the top of the dough with flour. Roll the dough out into a round that is approximately 10" dia. and 1⁄8" thick. Fit the dough into the bottom and up the sides of the pan. Trim excess dough even with the pan's rim and, with the tines of a fork, poke a few holes on the bottom. Line the shell with the paper round and fill with dried beans or rice. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes. Take the pan out of the oven and carefully remove the paper and beans, then bake the shell for 3 to 5 minutes more, or until lightly browned. Remove and let cool in pan on a rack. (The shell can be kept covered at room temperature for up to 8 hours.)
The Filling
Preheat oven to 300°F. Melt 1 T of the butter in a medium saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring, for 4 minutes, or until the onions are translucent. Add the corn, with a sprinkle of salt and pepper, and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes. Reserve 1⁄2 cup of the corn mixture in a medium bowl. Add the cream to the saucepan, bring to a simmer, and then transfer to a blender. Puree until smooth and transfer to the bowl with the reserved corn. Whisk in whole eggs, egg yolk, 1⁄2 cup scallions, Tabasco, and another sprinkle of salt and pepper until well combined. Pour the mixture into the prepared tart shell, and bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until the custard is set.
Meanwhile, melt remaining butter, transfer to a medium bowl, and toss with the remaining scallions, tomatoes, Parmesan cheese, smoked paprika, bread crumbs, and salt and pepper to taste. Once custard is set, remove tart from oven, and arrange tomato mixture on top. Return tart to the oven and continue baking for 15 more minutes, or until tomatoes are soft and bread crumbs are golden. Let tart rest for 20 minutes before slicing.
