The top 25 places we think should be on every traveler's radar this year.
MoreTourism on Anguilla is a fairly recent phenomenon—most development didn't begin until the early 1980s. The lack of native topography and, indeed, vegetation, and the blindingly white expanses of beach have inspired building designs of some interest; architecture buffs might have fun trying to name some of the most surprising examples. Inspiration largely comes from the Mediterranean: the Greek
Islands, Morocco, and Spain, with some Miami-style art deco thrown into the mixture.
Anguilla accommodations basically fall into two categories: grand resorts and luxury resort-villas, or low-key, simple, locally owned inns and small beachfront complexes. The former can be surprisingly expensive, the latter surprisingly reasonable. In the middle are some condo-type options, with full kitchens and multiple bedrooms, which are great for families or for longer stays. Private villa rentals are becoming more common and are increasing in number and quality every season as development on the island accelerates.
A good phone chat or email exchange with the management of any property is a good idea, as units within the same complex can vary greatly in layout, accessibility, distance to the beach, and view. When calling to reserve a room, ask about special discount packages, especially in spring and summer. Most hotels include continental breakfast in the price, and many have meal-plan options. But keep in mind that Anguilla is home to dozens of excellent restaurants before you lock yourself into an expensive meal plan that you may not be able to change. All hotels charge a 10% tax, a $1 per room/per day tourism marketing levy, and—in most cases—an additional 10% service charge. A few properties include these charges in the published rates, so check carefully when you are evaluating prices.

Processing seafood is all about adding value to raw material as efficiently and cost-effectively as possible, the goal being a high-quality product that will command a decent price. Seafood processors can choose from a wide range of U.S. and European-manufactured equipment to meet their needs, be it peeling and cooking shrimp, filleting whole salmon, slicing fish fillets to package specifications, grading and batching finished product or enhancing a fillet's appearance by trimming off brown meat sections.
A sampling of processing machinery is presented here. Not surprisingly, many of the pieces of equipment were developed to add value to shrimp and salmon, reflecting the sales volume represented by these two consumer favorites. All, regardless of product type, are geared to making the best use of fish or shellfish in the most economical manner possible.
Baader Food Processing Machinery has been manufacturing fish-processing machinery in Lübeck, Germany, for more than 85 years. The company plans, designs and sets up complete processing lines as well as fish-processing facilities ashore or aboard ship. It has agencies and service stations in more than 70 locations worldwide. The latest from Baader is its Model 1900 sizing/batching machine, built in the United States and designed to be simple, durable and accurate. Angled stainless-steel construction eliminates tubing, resulting in a more hygienic design, and all plastic belts and weigh decks are removable for easy cleaning. Operation is low-cost, as no lubrication or greasing is required, and since the weigh deck contains no mechanical moving parts, no bearings need to be changed or maintained. The modular direct-drive ejector assembly is also maintenance-free. Simplified software, a reliable weigh deck and Baader's online analysis and feedback enhance performance of the 1900 sizer/batcher.

Established in 1944, U.S.-based Bettcher Industries offers direct distribution and service to more than 40 countries worldwide. Hand-held Whizard® trimmers are Bettcher's current generation of trimmers it pioneered in the early 1950s for the processing industry. The company's new Whizard® Series II trimmers are specially designed for trimming dark meat from tuna and other fish. Processors can add value to their products and enhance yields with this precision-trimming operation, which also improves product appearance. The Whizard® Trimmer's adjustable depth gauge allows for trimming a uniform thickness and also simplifies the training process. The tool is designed for ease of use, improved productivity, safety and comfort. Bettcher Industries Birmingham, Ohio (440) 965-4422 www.bettcher.com
Last month, CP Food Machinery of Denmark merged into the salmon division of Carnitech A/S as Carnitech Salmon. Sales and service of all CP salmon-processing equipment in the western United States and Canada are now handled by Carnitech U.S. in Seattle, in cooperation with Carnitech Salmon, which handles the eastern United States. CP Food Machinery just released its IPS 3000 automated slicing machine, which cuts manpower while maintaining yields of 85 to 97 percent when producing retail packs of fresh smoked salmon. The slicer uses laser technology to measure the volume of the fillets to be sliced. Taking input from a built-in pre-weighing scale, a central processing unit calculates the cutting profile of each fillet to meet the specifications of the final product. Operators use a color touch-screen display to select options for cutting the fillets, including slice weight and thickness, number of slices per board and length and width of the slices. The input capacity is 165 to 242 pounds per hour, depending on slice weight and fillet size. Carnitech Salmon Nørresundby, Denmark +45 98 92 12 11 www.carnitech.com
Gainco, a subsidiary of Bettcher Industries, offers design engineering, equipment manufacturing, systems delivery and comprehensive service contracts both in and outside the United States. New from Gainco are its Autocount™ automated counting systems, offering a faster and more accurate count in a conveyorized stream of fresh and frozen fillets, nuggets and shellfish items for boxing or bagging. Engineered and built in the United States, these systems reportedly reduce product giveaway and dramatically reduce labor required by manual counting operations. Autocount™'s patent-pending "double-count detection" technology eliminates batching over- or under-counts even at speeds of up to 160 pieces per minute, thereby improving throughput. Management information and report summaries can be generated instantly, allowing processors to track throughput and packaging counts in real-time. A battery-backed memory records all operating data and setup parameters. A host PC can be connected to multiple Autocount™ systems for centralized reporting, setup control and yield analysis.

Gregor Jonsson built its first shrimp peeler back in 1953, and the company is now widely known for its high-speed peeling systems, which are reportedly 10 times faster than the best hand peelers. Systems employing Model 64 peeling stations can completely peel and devein shrimp or just split the shell for EZ peel. Model 60 universal stations peel tail off or on, round, butterfly split, Western style, EZ peel or completely peel and devein. Jonsson systems come in Standard or Water Conservation configurations. With standard systems, peeled shrimp and shells drop from each station onto stainless steel flumes. Water moves the shrimp to an inspection conveyor and shells to a collection conveyor. Water Conservation systems use no flumes. Peeled shrimp are discharged onto an inspection conveyor exclusive to each station. As water doesn't move the shrimp, water use can be up to 70 percent less than in a standard system. Both styles can be arranged in single, double or multiple lines. Gregor Jonsson Highland Park, Ill. (847) 831-2030 www.jonsson.com
Laitram Machinery, a manufacturer of seafood-processing equipment for more than 50 years, pioneered high-performance shrimp peeling and grading equipment, seafood steam cookers and chillers. The company is currently touting its Model FC200 bulk/tray cooker, utilizing a patented, "forced convection" process that lets the operator cook peeled tail-on, fully peeled, or shell-on shrimp via tray or bulk feeding. Shrimp are cooked as a mixture of air and steam is forced over them in the sealed cook chamber. Temperature can be adjusted in single degree increments from 185 to 194 degrees F for continuous, direct steam application. The forced-convection process results in a lower internal temperature, so there's less overcooking than with conventional cookers. This means more of the shrimps' natural moisture is retained, yielding improved texture, taste and appearance. Also, the shrimp spends more time above the bacteria- kill temperature, providing a safer product. Laitram Machinery Harahan, La. (800) 533-8253 www.laitram.com
The Iceland-based Marel Group, designer and manufacturer of salmon-processing modules and systems, operates 15 subsidiaries in Australia, Europe, Russia and North America and has agents and distributors in some 30 countries. A recent Marel introduction is the Compact Grader CG62 XL, suitable for simple grading and batching for small and medium-sized companies or as an add-on for larger companies with temporary or seasonal overflow needs that don't justify the expense of a full-size grader. The standalone grader is designed to grade large products like whole fish and fillets of up to 28 inches long and 9.2 inches wide at a throughput of up to 80 pieces a minute. The six-gate CG62 XL grades and batches by weight and/or count. Different grading programs can be set up easily and managed with a Palm handheld. Optional Ethernet or Bluetooth connections to MPS production software are available. Marel USA Lenexa, Kan.

Since 1952, Sort-Rite International has manufactured and supplied automated equipment for the aquaculture and shrimp- and seafood-processing industries. The Sort-Rite line includes shrimp and fish graders, cooking systems, conveyors, deheading systems and "Air-Flo" unloaders and pond-harvesting systems for aquaculture operations. The company is best known for its shrimp graders, available in two lengths: 8 feet, with three graded sizes and one oversize lot, and 10 feet, providing four graded sizes and one oversize lot. The units can grade 17 or more sizes and boast 1.15 uniformity by grade size (industry standard is 1.30). Both lengths come in six different sizes to handle from 1,000 to 6,000 pounds per hour. The graders efficiently and uniformly grade both fresh head-on shell-on shrimp and shell-on shrimp tails. They can also be used with frozen product.

The Larvotto is the best public beach in Monaco. Actually it's the only public beach in Monaco. But it's still pretty good. It's a man-made beach, laid in front of the pre-existing sea-front some time after the Second World War. It comprises three concrete jetties, protected by large boulders and a gravel beach.
In the last few years, the restaurants and bars at the back of the beach have grown substantially, both in size and quality, so there's pretty much something for all tastes. Most are now open all year round. The Larvotto is a nice place to go to in the winter without the crowds. It's popular with nannies and young parents as it's a great place for toddlers to run around.
The water is swimmable from late June to early September. In the summer the beach gets very busy and you've got to go early if you want to avoid the crowds.
Marine Life
One of the great attractions of the Larvotto for young and old is the marine life. The most hazardous marine forms used to be sea urchins - you had to be careful when climbing on the rocks or standing in the sea, as sea urchin needles can take months to work their way out of a foot or hand. But I haven't seen one near the beach for years. Jellyfish are now the major problem - that'll be the whole Mediterranean not just Monaco - so check the flag first. In 2007, for the first year ever, the authorities stretched a net across the bay, which catches most of them. Global warming, overfishing and organic pollutants are the causes.
It's well worth bringing swimming goggles or a mask and snorkel. Or just buy them at the beach. There are loads of fish, which swim around in great shoals. They're maybe not as colourful as tropical fish, but fascinating nevertheless.
Other life
I read somewhere on the internet that the Larvotto is where the jet set hang out and beautiful women strut around in diamond encrusted bikinis ogled by hairy middle aged millionaires. Er, no. That would be Le Beach, which is a private beach about 500m towards Italy. The Larvotto is where old and young, students and workers, locals and tourists all hang out. The beautiful and not-so-beautiful all together in a relaxed environment.
There are a few things to do other than lounge, swim, eat and drink, for those so inclined. At the eastern end (towards Italy) there's volleyball and a kids' trampoline. Nearer the centre there's a new fitness gym. By the central jetty there's a jazz bar and devices for lowering disabled people into the water. At the western end there are watersports: jetski, windsurf, parachute and a long plastic sausage. Down that end there's also a scuba diving school. On the upper level, kids rollerblade, skateboard and ride trick bikes. There's a creche near the western end and a playground for toddlers near the eastern end. All the bars have "transats", which are deckchairs and parasols for hire.
The one thing that's missing
Nobody sells newspapers. Walk out of the Larvotto complex heading East for about two hundred metres. There's a hotel there with a shop selling most international titles.
The lifeguard watchtower in the centre of the beach is only manned in July and August, from 10 am to 6 pm. They post a flag indicating the danger level of the sea. Green = OK. Orange = Warning. Red = Danger. An orange flag usually indicates the presence of jellyfish, but can mean the waves are high or, I suppose, a container ship has dumped its toxic cargo offshore and it's moving inland. The police station is by the tower next to the toilets. It's a good idea to check the flag before entering the water. You can spot tourists who don't know about the flag because they're the ones merrily splashing around out at sea when everyone else is quickly getting out of the water.
There are no tides or tidal currents to speak of. In fact, there are no strong currents at all unless you swim well out to sea.
The main danger, other than human foolishness, the obvious perils of water, or the recent plague of jellyfish, must be the rocks and the waves. So, I guess, avoid both unless you know what you're doing.
The water in the Larvotto is not exactly crystal clear. Statistics are posted daily at the Police post, if you can decipher them. The beach is strewn with a fairly typical quantity of cigarette butts. Dogs are not allowed, but some dog-lovers will always try it on.
Getting there
Just walk along the seafront eastwards (towards Italy) until you see a beach. Or take the number 4 or 6 bus.

Very good foundation for me! Looks pretty good on skin, has medium to full coverage. Good for all skin types, doesn't break me out and stays at least 8 hours. The only problem I have is that it doesn't control oil at all.
Update: Ugh, this stuff made me looking like "oily mess" after an hour(!), even with base and powder. And I have combination skin! I really want to love this product but I wouldn't repurchase. And it stinks.

This product gives good coverage, however it does make my skin slightly oily, especially at the end of the day. Having said that,it is longlasting although the range of shades is not very wide. For the quality of the product the price is reasonable, and is actually cheaper than some drugstore foundations. The packing is hygenic and easy to carry with you when travelling.

It's a wonderful product! I'm on my second tube now, it goes on velvety smooth, the coverage is medium to full,best thing about it, it doesn't brake me out and it really is for sensitive skin! The only downside to it, it makes my T zone little bit oily, but nothing that a powder can't fix!

I bought this trying to find a slightly cheaper alternative to my Clinique Anti Blemish - anomie thing that would cover blemishes and do nice things to my skin! I'm really not overly impressed to be honest- its very thick and a bit too much coverage (think it would be really good if you wanted it to cover redness or uneven skin tone though), my face just felt a bit like a white sheet as the lightest tone was just too light but the one above far too orange. It seems to highlight my pores and any under-skin blemishes, and I think the last time I had to use powder this much to get rid of shine on my t zone I was a teenager! Overall I think this would be great if you have really smooth skin and just want to correct redness, but really not for me!

Hi, I have to say that it's my first time here. Well, I used to buy Clinique Repairwear, I used it for three years. But a week ago I went to the place where I usually purchases it and they told me that Clinique is not selling that product anymore, so I went to another drugstore to check if they had some of them left but unlickily they didn't have any. So, I used other foundations these days but I was so depressed when I went past a mirror... Finally, I started searching on google "foundations with couverage" and I found good opinions about Dermablend of Vichy. But I couldn't purchase it anywhere either. The druggist told me that she used a foundation by LRP with a lot of couverage (which was this one) and I bought it. It was yesterday and today it's been my first time with it and I only have good words, even my boyfriend says it's better than Clinique's one, ant it's half its price! So I'm SOOOO happy with it. For me, it's EXCELLENT!

Age: 19-24 Skin: Combination, Fair-Medium, Warm Hair: Brunette, Straight, Fine Eyes: Green
I got this foundation in nr 10 and 11. There's not big of a difference between colors - Ivory 10 is more neutral beige toned, while 11 is maybe a tiny bit pinker but I still can use it on my warm toned skin without looking ashy or pink.
I have oily acne-prone skin which breaks out when products I use are wrong. This foundation doesn't do that.
It is full coverage foundation which sets nicely. You have to have moisturized and non-flaky skin or otherwise it will look bad (like any other foundation would). Once you apply it, it may look a bit powdery or heavy but when it sets, it will look even and healthy. Depending on the amount and brush you use, you can get different coverage. Duo-fiber brush applies foundation more sheer while flat top kabuki gives full coverage. You don't even need pea sized amount of this foundation to cover your whole face (I use it very lightly to even out my skin).
It lasts on without primer and powder 3-4 hours before I notice oils coming through. If you have oily skin, you need a primer or very light powder to help it last longer. I don't use it during summer because I don't need that much coverage and my skin looks better in summertime anyway, I think it would be a bit thick for summer. It feels comfortable on skin for a high coverage foundation. It doesn't make skin tight or itchy.
I usually use duo-fibre stippling brush which gives less coverage but looks very nice. You need to take time blending it though or it will look patchy because the texture is quite thick. Foundation covers redness, acne marks and other spots you may have amazingly well. It doesn't have strong scent which I like, but it has medicine like smell which fades very quickly so that is not a problem for me.
I don't know how it's on dry skin but it is amazing for oily acne-prone skin.
* finish is semi-matte, very natural, not oily or shiny
* medium to full coverage depending on your brush choice
* tube - you can get every last drop of it and it's hygienic
* perfect color match if you have light yellow/neutral skin (Clinique Anti-Blemish foundation in nr 2 or MAC NC20 can use Ivory 10 shade)
* reasonably priced
* doesn't feel heavy
* I have to order it online
* color selection is not good (if you are very pale, even the lightest shade will look too dark on you)

Remember to moisturize well before applying this if you have dry skin.
This foundation has a tendency to highlight my skin's uneven texture, only the skintone is unified - to a beige tone that looks dull.
The light beige works for my skin tone with a little bronzer on top, but this is nothing special.

This is an incredible foundation with heavy duty coverage and a really natural finish. It cleared the acne on my chin and gave me the most wonderful light feel to my skin. I first saw it on a friend that had really bad acne scars and it made her look just perfect. This is the best foundation I have ever tried and it's too bad they don't make it in a larger shade range. The price is not exactly low, but you need the tiniest bit for your whole face, this lasted about 5 months with me. Amazing product, easy to blend, no smell, just perfect to me.

The NY STATE ARS District convention and rose show takes place at the Holiday Inn in Fishkill on September 8th. Open to exhibitors ($45. registration fee) at 6:30, closed to exhibitors 10:00. Open to the public 1:30 pm with rose programs all afternoon.
Should be a good show and some interesting talks - the one I'm giving is on old roses for modern gardens. Also one on hybridizing and another on rose arragements. Holiday Inn is on Route 9 just north of I-84 (you can see it from the highway). |

Disks of never-before-released data from the Department of Education landed with a befuddling thud in New York City's newsrooms at the end of February. The swarm of spreadsheets had promised to provide a single ranking of 18,000 teachers (by name!) from zero to 99 based on students' standardized test scores.
A bonanza for education reporters, right? Time to celebrate? Well, not exactly; not for me, anyway.
My intrepid journalism students wondered why I didn't seem to share their enthusiasm for the data. Wasn't I the same teacher who became semi-deranged when they turned in stories without any quantitative evidence? Think of the stories to be done, the fun graphics to design.
Here were not only reams of data, but hot data—from the center of a national controversy over how teachers should be evaluated. Adding to the buildup, the reports had been locked away for more than a year while a city judge refereed a high-octane legal fracas between the teachers union and the city over whether to release them. Nearly a dozen news organizations had become either witting or unwitting pawns in this dispute when they filed Freedom of Information requests for the data's release.
"Isn't it our job to bring information into the light, and let the public judge for themselves?" one student asked me. She had learned her lessons well.
Last year, I was certain what my killjoy answer would be: Just because you have data doesn't mean it is always right to publish it—especially if you know the numbers are no good. And these numbers do have huge problems. Everyone from economists, to educators, to knowledgeable city education reporters know that the arcane algorithms that generated the teacher-rating numbers are as statistically flawed as they are politically fraught.
The complex formulas are meant to measure how much value a teacher contributes to a student's learning growth (or lack of growth) over time. It would be useful if they actually did. But the data are riddled with mistakes, useless sample sizes, flawed measuring tools, and cavernous margins of error. The Department of Education says that a math teacher's ranking could be off by 35 percent; an English teacher's by 53 percent. That means a reading teacher with a ho-hum 35 could either be as horrid as a 1 or as awesome as an 86—take your pick. What election survey with these kinds of gaping margins would be published in the papers?
Most damning—and most often ignored in the coverage—is that the sole basis for these ratings are old student tests that have since been discredited by the New York State Board of Regents. The 2007-2010 scores used for these teacher rankings were inflated, the Regents determined. The Department of Education had lowered the pass score so far that the tests had become far too easy. So not only were the algorithms suspect, but the numbers fed into them were flawed. News organizations that publish them next to teachers' names run the risk of not only knowingly misleading the public, but also of becoming entangled in the political web surrounding teacher evaluations, which extends from the mayor's office, to the state house, to unions, philanthropy board rooms, and to the White House.
And yet, nearly every city news organization went ahead and printed them anyway.
To my mind, all reasons not to publish still exist. They are still true. But in the last month, I've come around to an opposite, perhaps more cynical, conclusion about the virtues of making them public. Publishing them, it seems to me, has had an odd, clarifying effect. Releasing the data to public scrutiny, alongside context and caveats, has exposed just how flawed they really are.
Apparently, the public has received that message. A Quinnipiac poll released in mid-March showed that 58 percent of the respondents approved of releasing the teacher data reports, while at the same time 46 percent believed they were flawed. The more the public sees, the less enamored they are (Go, Journalism!).
Perhaps that was what philanthropist Bill Gates feared in February when he lectured the media days before the data were released. In a February 23 op ed in The New York Times, "Shame is not the Solution," Gates warned news organizations not to humiliate teachers by publishing their names next to their value-added rankings.
What was up? Gates is usually bullish on the use of test scores to evaluate teachers. Concern for their feelings had rarely been a top concern. Yet, he argued, correctly, test scores were not "a sensitive enough measure to gauge effective teaching" all by themselves.

This free online cooking measurement conversions calculator will scale a recipe's ingredients using any one of three recipe conversion options.
You can either enter an alternate number of servings, or you can select from a preset scaling menu (quarter, half, double, etc.), or you can manually enter the conversion factor.
Plus, unlike other online recipe converters, this converter will provide you with a printer friendly version so you can print out the completed conversion -- which will include a column containing the original unit quantities and a column containing the the converted unit quantities.
The following recipe conversions chart shows some of the common recipe conversions in case you would like to convert an ingredient manually.
Unit(s) | = | Unit(s) |
Pinch | = | 1/16 Teaspoon (tsp) |
3 Teaspoons | = | 1 Tablespoon (tbsp) |
1 Tablespoon | = | 1/2 Fluid Ounce (fl oz) |
8 Fluid Ounces | = | 1 Cup |
2 Cups | = | 1 Pint (pt) |
2 Pints | = | 1 Quart (qt) |
4 Quarts | = | 1 Gallon (gal) |
16 Dry Ounces | = | 1 Pound (lb) |
On September 3, 2013, I received the following email from the author of a new cookbook series:
I have seen a lot, and I mean A LOT of cooking conversion sites out there, but this one is by far the best. I am using it in a lot of cookbooks I am writing and will give you full credit on your help! Thanks again for making my life easier." -- Kristi Ambrose
Well, little did I know the first book in her series would be available on Amazon the following month. And sure enough, there it was ... an entire paragraph devoted to referencing the calculator. How cool is that?!
Of course, I felt compelled to return the favor, so, here you go Kristi ...
Kristi Ambrose is in the process of creating a very yummy cookbook series, For The Love Of. According to the author, the cookbooks are best viewed in color and you don't even need a Kindle to read them!
Take a free "Look Inside" For the Love of Eggs on Amazon (reference to the calculator is on the first page of text, 3rd paragraph).
With that, let's use the Recipe Conversion Calculator to calculate cooking measurement conversions when scaling a recipe from one number of servings to another.
Check Out My Other Super Online Conversion Calculators To Help You To Convert ... |
Recipe title: Enter the title of the recipe, which will appear on the printed recipe conversion.

It is telling, then, that some of the most effective stories to come out of the SB 1070 signing have approached the issue from a very local level. Take another Associated Press article, this one from May 3: a report on the suddenly popular movement to boycott Arizona businesses to protest the law. While the knee-jerk reaction among some in the media has been to report on the boycotts as simply an act of political protest on the part of people empowered to engage in one, the AP story (reported from Nogales, Mexico, the border town that shares a boundary with the Arizona city of the same name) digs deeper. It reminds the reader that, at the micro level, these boycotts could actually harm migrant families, and in turn, block the legal nodes of Mexican/American small business. They could lead to migrant workers being laid off, thus cutting a vital source of income to their families back home. In other cases, the boycotts could sever an important tie that thousands of legal migrants rely on for discount shopping near the border. Because the story tackles the issue from an on-the-ground perspective, it actually says more about the national landscape than many other politically minded pieces.
Capturing the essence of a broad and significant topic like immigration is certainly no easy undertaking, especially when so much of the current coverage is written and edited hundreds of miles away from the contentious Arizona border. But the national immigration debate will likely ramp up in the coming months. And when it does, reporters should remember: In telling that story, it's as important to keep one foot on the ground as it is to see the big picture.

Most of us have seen Rublev's ikon of the Hospitality of Abraham in which the Trinity is portrayed as three angelic persons in communion around a table. Now, of course many of us are predisposed to immediately point out the theological problems with the ikon, the most glaring of which is its seeming portrayal of the persons of the Trinity as three separate individuals. However, to enforce such theological specificity into an ikonic witness to the Trinity is to make a distinctly Western theological mistake, namely the mistake of thinking that we can univocally represent God in any form whatsoever, be it verbal or pictorial. What I find more illuminating and provocative about this ikon is actually its name. This is not simply an ikon of the immanent Trinity (how I think it is usually read), but of "the hospitality of Abraham." I find a couple of insights in that.
First, the ikon is making a statement about how we encounter the fellowship of the triune God. In the ikon, we encounter the persons of the Trinity in and through the practice of hospitality to the stranger. Abraham's encounter with God as recounted in Genesis 18 takes place in the context of the extension of table fellowship. The ikon seems here to be making a profound statement about where and how we are going to experience the life of triune communion. It seems to be implied that it is in extending hospitality to the stranger, opening up one's life to the outsider that we commune with the triune persons.
Second, the table as portrayed in the ikon is clearly eucharistic in nature. This seems to say something about the eucharist and about hospitality. First, it seems to say that something central about the eucharist is the reality of hosting and being hosted by the triune God. The eucharist is an event of divine and human hospitality. While the ikon is of Abraham's hospitality to the three strangers, the presentation of the ikon has the front end of the table open to the reader of the ikon, beckoning the reader to see himself as being invited to the table. The eucharist, then is simultaneously the act of God's hospitality, of welcoming created persons into fellowship with God's triune life and the church's act of opening our lives to God, offering him our gifts and begging him to remain with us. Conversely, the ikon also seems to be saying that hospitality is eucharistic. It seems to intimate that the offer of hospitality to the stranger is itself a sacramental and eucharistic reality in which the triune God comes to meet us. In and through the offer of hospitality and the act of eating together in peace, the reality of the Trinity is present among us in and as our koinonial and agapeic fellowship.
What I find most compelling about the Rublev ikon is the way in which it rightly portrays the relationship of giving and receiving hospitality to the fullness of the Christian mystery. For us to know the life of the Trinity in our midst is to live a life that embodies the traversal between the giving and the receiving of hospitality.

Want the answers to questions about the iPhone? You'll find questions and answers here.
I am so glad I didn't update to IOS7 with both my iPhone and iPad. Apple has really Jumped the Shark. They seem to be taking the same stance as the US Govt, "Leading from Behind".
What ever happened to setting the trends instead of trying to follow them??
Seriously, if I wanted a Windows phone I would buy one.
I have the same issue!!
I hated iOS 7 and I feel like its a cheap phone! Apple used to be the BEST. Well, not happy anymore.
And they MUST listen to the customers! Or probably they will lose many...
Is it not possible to revert back to ios6 by doing a restore in itunes to last backup?
Well, Apple needs to come out with an update to fix this battery drainage real fast....iOS 7 is draining the life out of my battery in no time and I've changed everything I could think of that would be using the battery extensively. I don't like the look of iOS 7 either.
Not totally true. It was possible to restore from the 6.1.3 firmware installer (available for download on the internet) until three days ago when Apple stopped "signing" 6.1.3. So one can download the iOS 6 installer, and iTunes will attempt to install it; but since Apple won't authorize it, so to speak, the installation fails. Personally, I absolutely detest iOS 7 and I am really, really angry at Apple for their idiotic refusal to allow people who don't like iOS 7 to restore iOS 6 and use the operating system they prefer.
It seems to me that the only hope that this will again be possible in the future is if a flood of complaints about Apple's policy on this issue start flooding the Apple forums. Personally, I intend to start a new thread on this issue, as well as post a message like this one in every existing relevant thread. I encourage everyone who feels as I do to do the same. There is absolutely no justifiable reason for Apple to force iPhone owners to stick with iOS 7 if they prefer iOS 6, and Apple needs to know that people are angry about their bone-headed policy.
Keep them cards and letters coming!
Has anyone noticed the number of these posts asking a question on how to revert to IOS6 being deleted. In the past two days I have gone back to look at updates and noticed there completely gone. I think there is nothing wrong asking for help on the forum and why should this type of question be removed. We are not all experts and its really acceptable to see if you can reinstall your phone.
Cryptic replies that withhold information you claim to have don't help anyone.

"This was excellent! I substituted fresh cuban oregano from my yard rather than dried. I only had a red bell pepper so used this instead of the green pepper.

"This is a great recipe. I tried it very spontaneously this morning because I had an apple I needed to use. I was a little nervous about no baking powder or salt in the batter, but it was perfect... puffy, crispy edges, perfectly done in the center, and lovely caramel coating the apples on the bottom. Definitely a keeper."
"This is a wonderful recipe! We had some large prawns and I followed the recipe exactly except for one thing-I don't like cilantro and had no parsley so i used fresh basil instead. The spice blend is wonderful-not too anything, not too hot, sweet, salty, spicy,just right! Try this, you won't regret it."
"Great Recipe! I followed exactly as written, only adding some sanding sugar after baking. The recipe actually reminds me of my pound cake recipe with fewer eggs. Everyone at work loved them-I used fresh blueberries."

I wanted to grow gooseberries here like it did in Ct. but could never find any locally. Then I read where they cannot be sold because they contribute to fungus diseases that attack the local fruit agriculture. People can buy currents/gooseberry plants by mail order from companies that don't care what the laws are in destination states but didn't do that. |

I live near Park Seed & Wayside Gardens and they sell gooseberry bushes, so I'm thinking they must not be illegal here in SC , but you might want to check with your extension agent. I'd thought about growing them several years ago, but talked with some garden friends who had tried and didn't have good results.They said it was too hot here for them. I'd sure love to have a gooseberry pie tho ! |

thanks all! I will contact clemson--I had no idea who to ask. I had read that there is a problem with them hosting some disease that effects pine--and that they are ilegal in NC. I really wanted currant mainly for jelly and for birds. But I have lots of pines so I don't want to cause a problem with those. |

I snooped around the internet and never did find a definitive site that listed if Ribes or Rubrus were legal in SC. I guess if your state is listed at the end of the plant description on any bush web catalog that would tell you. When I first heard about the restrictions I thought they sounded kinda harsh but I went along with them. Now I have read and re-read various articles online about the history of the problem and it all makes me mad enough to plant a million of them in my yard. I understand the importance of the lumber industry to North Carolina. I respect all that it involves. I can comprehend the danger that a disease can cause when it spreads. But this problem was NOT caused by backyard berry growers - it was caused by shortsighted lumber industry people importing infected pine seedlings from Europe. And then, to top things off, they formed teams that went throughout the pine forest across the US and destroyed the NATIVE gooseberries and currants!!!!!!!!!!!!! all in the name of covering up their mistake. A whole lot of wildlife depends on those berries but wildlife isn't as important as furniture making or two by fours. This is as bad as the Canada Goose problem - which also has a non-natural cause (just thank the US Wildlife Dept the next time you step in goose poop at the lake). Shortsided government. Now, over time, both pine trees and gooseberries and currants have developed various degrees of resistance to White Pine Blister or whatever the disease is now called. This resistance came from nature, not a government lab. Some states recognize this fact and have lifted the ban on Ribes & Rubrus (Gooseberries and Currants). Some states lifted the ban because all the efforts to eradicate the disease didn't work. North Carolina stills bans them. Shortsighted government. |

White pines are only native in northern Greenville, Pickens, and Oconee counties, and white pine blister rust only attacks the 5-needle pine species. It doesn't bother the other pines native to SC, all of which have 2 or 3 needles. So if your climate allows it, go ahead and grow Ribes. |

Funny, if that disease problem and it's proposed solution were occurring today we wouldn't have the budget or the staff to go tramping the pine forests of the USA. |
I am in Columbia, & have a gooseberry in Lugoff on a farm. It came from Henry Fields & is green, it bared the first year & every year after(3).I have a Red Lake currant that not doing as well. I am going to try "Poorboy", it is said to be sweeter & does well in zone 7. If Henry Fields do not carry Poorboy then I will get it from Rain tree. If you would like more on gooseberries, use the search at the top of the page then green back button, as I did when I found this thread. |
- Posted by dottie_in_charlotte z7-8 NC (My Page) on Tue, Feb 8, 11 at 13:05
It was the cedar-apple rust issue that I learned was the reason to prevent selling currant/gooseberry plants here. I've never seen the effects on apples or apple trees but I've sure seen it on my cedars. Disgusting looking orange growths on cedar tips that look like a mutant slime mold. |
Legal in SC. Illegal in NC. But I had trouble with them handling the full sun in the middle of summer here in SC.... at least that's what I'm atributing it to. They came back when we started cooling back down in September. |

Reducing Your Risk of Allergic Rhinitis
There are no guidelines for reducing your risk of allergic rhinitis because it is not fully understood why some people develop allergic reactions to certain substances while others do not.
But researchers are studying to see if mothers can reduce allergies in their children by taking certain measures during pregnancy. For example, not having pets may help reduce wheezing in babies prone to allergies. For adults, closely following the Mediterranean diet may offer some protection from allergic rhinitis. More research needs to be done before any recommendations for reducing the risk of allergic rhinitis can be made.

U.S. Consumer Travel Report Sixth Edition
In the past three years, U.S. consumer travel has had trouble catching up with the nation's overall economic recovery. But after a long, stressful period of watching every dollar and forgoing vacation, travelers took off in 2013, finally treating themselves to the rest and relaxation they'd been craving - and providing the travel industry with a sorely needed boost. Phocuswright's U.S. Consumer Travel Report Sixth Edition is designed to help travel companies make the most of the bright years on the horizon by offering longitudinal analysis of consumer leisure travel behavior, consumption of major travel products, and the trip planning process.

U.S. Consumer Travel Report Fifth Edition
While the U.S. economy showed clear signs of recovery in 2012, there were enough mixed signals to make vacation decisions difficult for many Americans. Through a longitudinal analysis, Phocuswright's U.S. Consumer Travel Report Fifth Edition examines traveler behavior along each step of the travel planning process - from the media travelers rely on to make destination and product decisions, to the channels they use to book and share their trip experiences. Key metrics include frequency and duration of trips, travel expenditure and travel component purchases, and travel intentions for the coming year.

DeMicco Family HistoryUpdated September 5, 2000 |
Frank J DeMicco
1580 Stillwell Ave
Bronx, NY 10461
7188922505 |
I am researching the history of the DeMicco family. They came from a town in Italy called Santa Croce Del Sannio in the provence of Benevento . The original spelling of the name was Di Micco.I have data that dates to the late 1600's. Most of this data was researched and collected in Santa Croce Del Sannio by Giulio Salemme. Giulio is a genealogist that lives in Italy. I think he is the best in the business. The most common names in the tree are DeMicco, Di Micco, DiMaria, Festa, D'uva, Gioa, Cappozzi, Saccomanno, and Zeoli. I would be happy to share information if anyone is interested. |

Brochure copywriting
Brochures are usually the first marketing item to be produced by a business and the first contact that potential customers will have with your organisation. So a well-written brochure could be the difference between losing a sale and gaining a long-term customer.
Why you need a brochure writer
You don't need to splash out on expensive photography or glossy paper for your brochure. But skimping on professional brochure copywriting can be a costly mistake. Are you communicating the right messages? Are you saying too much, too little - or giving out the wrong signals altogether? Is your grammar, spelling and punctuation word perfect?
That's why it's always worth getting a professional copywriter like me to write your sales literature. Alternatively, if you've already produced your own brochure, and it's not working as well as you hoped, why not ask me to review it? For details, please see copy critique

Reviews for Busy-Day Baked Fish
Sort By :
"I made this recipe for the first time when I was first dating the man who later became my husband. We've been married for 4 1/2 years and he asks for this often. He always has it on his birthday. It is definitely a fast and delicious way to celebrate. Sometimes I swap the same amount of unflavored yogurt for the sour cream with the same yummy results."
"I had to substitue the onion soup mix with 1 1/4 tbsp of Old Bay seasoning because I was determined to try this recipe one night. I am absolutely not a fish person but I loved it! We used pollock. My kids both ate seconds which is a rarity!"
"Very tasty! I used grated Parmesan because it was what I had on hand, and it was OK . . . but the shredded would be better. The pre-teen granddaughter even liked it."
"Both my husband and 9 year old son say this one is a keeper, and my 7 year old had more than one bite. Another plus is that it's very easy and quick to make, and most of the ingredients are things I usually already have."
"Very good recipe. I made this with tilapia and it was very tasty. Easy to make, and the leftovers were just as good the next day."

FCC Acting Chair Mignon Clyburn to Address Radio Show
Washington; New York - Jul 24, 2013 - Organizers of the Radio Show, jointly produced by the National Association of Broadcasters (NAB) and the Radio Advertising Bureau (RAB), announced that Federal Communications Commission (FCC) Acting Chairwoman Mignon Clyburn will give keynote remarks to Radio Show attendees on Wednesday, Sept. 18, 2013, following opening remarks by NAB President and CEO Gordon Smith and RAB President and CEO Erica Farber. The Radio Show will be held Sept. 18-20 in Orlando.
Clyburn has served on the Commission since 2009. She became acting chairwoman following her appointment by President Barack Obama on May 20, 2013.
In her two terms at the FCC, Clyburn (D) has been a strong advocate for enhanced accessibility in communications for disabled citizens. She has fought to promote strong competition across all communications platforms and media ownership that reflects the demographics of America.
Clyburn has a long history of public service, having served for 11 years on the Public Service Commission (PSC) of South Carolina before joining the FCC. Prior to her service on the PSC, Clyburn was the publisher and general manager of The Coastal Times, a Charleston-based weekly newspaper that focused primarily on issues affecting the African American community. She co-owned and operated the family-founded newspaper for 14 years.

I'm supposed to be on hiatus, but this is too good not to pass on.
Quintessence of Dust has added to his comments on chance vs. the Intelligent Design movement. (Some IDers have claimed that God cannot work through "chance" events. Nonsense!)
He also refers to a note in First Things, by Stephen Barr, which considers what Thomas Aquinas thought about chance.
Both Barr and Quintessence of Dust quote Proverbs 16:33, which says, "The lot is cast into the lap,
but its every decision is from the Lord." (ESV)
I have previously written, here, about the one occurrence (or two, depending on how you count) of the word "random" in some versions of the Bible, and here, about chance.
Quintessence of Dust gives examples of chance processes in science, commonly understood that way, here.
Thanks for chancing by this blog, and reading.
Musings on science, the Bible, and fantastic literature (and sometimes basketball and other stuff).
God speaks to us through the Bible and the findings of science, and we should listen to both types of revelation.
The title is from Psalm 84:11.
The Wikipedia is usually a pretty good reference. I use the English Standard Version (ESV) of the Bible, and try to cite it appropriately. I also use the World English Bible (WEB), which is public domain. I am grateful.
I have written an e-book, Does the Bible Really Say That?, which is free to anyone. To download that book, in several formats, go here.

Best Late-Night American Menu Denver 2008 - Steuben's
Denver remains a tough place to find a great meal late at night. Enter Steuben's. With a kitchen that serves until midnight on the weekends and eleven on school nights, Steuben's is your best bet for a real late-night dinner, whether you're looking for good, alcohol-absorbing grub, beating back a savage attack of the munchies or simply want a solid meal. And while Steuben's has an extensive menu, the night creatures here come for the American regional classics, hearty fare such as gravy fries, macaroni and cheese, deviled eggs and green-chile cheeseburgers.
