"The Lord keeps faith forever, secures justice for the oppressed, gives food to the hungry" (Ps 145 (146) :6-7).
1. These words of the Responsorial Psalm, which we have listened to in today's liturgy, are more significant than ever in the context of the celebration of the Fortieth Anniversary of the founding of the Food and Agriculture Organization. I have accepted with great pleasure the invitation extended to me to take part in this celebration.
I address a cordial and respectful greeting to the experts representing the Member States of FAO, and to the senior officials, and I express my appreciation for their work and for the lofty purposes to which they are directing their efforts.
I greet all the other personalities and the members of the faithful who have wished to join us in this Eucharistic Liturgy of thanksgiving.
Your presence, distinguished Ladies and Gentlemen and dear Brothers and Sisters, reminds us of the efforts made by FAO to eliminate the obstacles and imbalances which impede the dynamism of production, such as is required for a proper distribution of the basic necessities of life. There is no need to say how close the Church is to you in this work of human solidarity. Having as her mission the continuation in time of the teachings and actions of the Divine Master, she does not cease to hear anew that moving exclamation that rose from his heart at the sight of the hungry multitude: "I have compassion on the crowd, because they have... nothing to eat; and I am unwilling to send them away hungry, lest they faint on the way" (Mt 15:32).
There is no doubt that the present world situation confirms the most important and irreplaceable function of FAO.
There is first of all the matter of supporting the continued development of the food self-sufficiency of each people, especially by increasing production and bringing about a fairer distribution of the resources available.
In addition to this basic action are the exceptional operations for emergency aid. Unfortunately, at present there are ever increasing requests for urgent interventions in particular zone and continents, such as the request of many African countries stricken by drought and famine. Food crises are increasing in number not only as a result of adverse climatic conditions and natural disasters, but also as a result of conflicts caused by economic policies which are not always suitable and by the forced transfers of populations.
Thus there are added ever greater commitments in order to meet in an adequate way the obvious needs of the population, including the people yet to be born, to respond to the requests of Governments and to establish lines of joint and agreed action between Member States of the Organization.
2. This solemn celebration also reminds me of the Fortieth Anniversary of the United Nations Organization, around which we see the harmonious operating of the whole system of specialized Inter-Governmental Organizations. The Holy See very willingly associated itself with the commemoration of this anniversary, which recalls the coming into force of the Charter of the United Nations. Through the Cardinal Secretary of State, I have sent to Mr Jaime De Piniés, President of the Fortieth General Assembly of the UN, a message reaffirming the moral support that the Holy See has always given to this Organization from its very beginning, and I have encouraged specific cooperation aimed at promoting true peace and fruitful understanding between individuals and national communities.
On various occasions, the Church has expressed her esteem for and affirmation of this supreme forum of the families of peoples, and she constantly supports its functions and initiatives aimed at favouring sincere collaboration between the Nations. On this Fortieth Anniversary, I wish to express once again my gratitude for the invitation extended to me in October 1979 to speak before the Representatives of that General Assembly. That invitation was especially significant for me because, as I said at that solemn meeting, it "shows that the United Nations Organization accepts and respects the religious and moral dimension of those human problems that the Church attends to, in view of the message of truth and love that it is her duty to bring to the world" (AAS 71, p. 1146). During these forty years the international community has seen the Church and the United Nations Organization in ever increasing cooperation and solidarity, in defence "of man in his wholeness, in all the fullness and manifold riches of his spiritual and material existence' (Ibid., p. 1146).
At a moment in history when technology was being directed to the purposes of war, hegemony and conquest, and when man was killing man and nations destroying nations, the birth of this Organization was greeted by those preoccupied about humanity's destiny as a new safeguard of peace and hope, and as the real way destined to lead to the recognition and respect of the inalienable rights of individuals and of the communities of peoples.
It is my hope that this Anniversary will strengthen that conviction and in particular - as I said in the Message of 14 October last - reinforce the moral and juridical authority of this Organization for the safeguarding of peace and for international cooperation in favour of the development and freedom of all peoples.
The United Nations will fulfil its high mission all the more effectively if in each Member State the conviction grows that to govern people means to serve a plan of higher justice. The courageous and hope-filled vision that inspired those who drew up the 1945 Charter must never be disavowed, in spite of the difficulties and obstacles which it has encountered during these forty years. That vision will remain the ideal point of reference until those obstacles have been overcome. This is the fervent desire that I wish to renew at this liturgical celebration, as I pray to the Lord for the success of all efforts in favour of the cause of peace.
3. The scene presented by today's Gospel underlines the relationship between rich and poor by illustrating the difference of behaviour between the Scribes and the widow. In the modern world this contrast is being repeated by the disproportionate stages of development in different countries, a contrast which is currently referred to as the North-South relationship.
The Messiah utters a negative judgment in regard to those who live in luxury and wealth and who despise the poor; in regard to the rich who do not give to the poor as much as they might, or who, even when they do give, do so with an ostentation that betrays the fact that they are seeking their own glory: "Beware of the scribes who like to accept marks of respect in public and have the best seats in the synagogues and the places of honour at banquets" (Mk 12:38-39).
The words of the Responsorial Psalm, "The Lord upholds the widow and the orphan", (Ps 145(146):9) contrast with what the Gospel says about the Scribes, dismissing their external appearance of piety which is contradicted by the arbitrary judgments and injustices which they practise: "They devour the houses of widows and recite long prayers for appearances sake" (Mk 12:40).
On the other hand Jesus gives very high praise to the hidden gesture of the poor widow, who generously gives even what she needs for herself, and he contrasts this act with the offerings of so many rich people who give "sizable amounts", but with ostentation.
4. Jesus' warning invites us today to examine ourselves: to ask ourselves, that is, if the coming of the Kingdom has really caused the situations of power and extravagance existing in the world to be overturned. This could have happened if each individual had matched his or her faith with logical action, especially with regard to efforts in favour of the very poor, the marginal people and the despised.
Individuals and whole peoples will be finally judged by history in relation to how they actually fulfil their obligation to contribute to the good of their fellow human beings, in proportion to their own prosperity and in an effective spirit of worldwide shared responsibility according to justice.
It is to be hoped that everyone - individuals, groups, private undertakings and public bodies - will take proper care of the most needy, beginning with the basic right to satisfy one's own hunger.
Each individual should prepare, by present actions, so as to be ready to welcome the Messiah when he appears a second time and says: "Come, blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world" (Mt 25:34).
5. What is being proposed is an examination of conscience that certainly begins with the personal life of each individual, concerning each one's awareness of wealth and poverty.
Today you are called to acknowledge the privilege of collaborating actively and loyally within the structures of international society. A true sense of responsibility in the proper use of the resources placed at the disposal of FAO demands above all that each person should possess and perfect his or her own professional skill and apply it seriously and accurately to the fulfilment of daily duties.
But the examination of conscience also extends to the level of the obligation of the Member States of FAO to work together in the selection of internal and international policies with concrete proposals that will lead to timely decisions and adequate results.
It is very important to achieve relationships based on international justice between the peoples of the whole world and their States. But it is urgently necessary that solidarity between wealthier countries should be intensified, with a wider application of multilateral arrangements.
Reflection on one's obligations as a Member of FAO, and more broadly within the United Nations system, should lead to an affirmation of the duty of each people to contribute in proportion both to its own conditions of prosperity and to the needs of others.
It is desirable that a "World Treaty of Food Security" - such as the one which will be placed before the FAO Conference for its approval - should be considered and recognized as having the value not only of an ethical requirement but also as having juridical force. It is to be hoped that the Act which the Assembly approves will be given such effectiveness, at least vis-à-vis the Member States, in the forms considered appropriate according to present day international law.
6. On the other hand, it has to be recognized that there are recurring episodes of distrust and a frequent unwillingness to assume real and definite commitments which would adequately respond to needs and would subsequently be effectively maintained.
Too often, various forms of nationalism and protectionism hinder both the availability of foodstuffs vital to all without discrimination, and the transfer of the same from high-producing countries to countries less well provided. Such obstacles and modes of conduct openly contradict the principles of real justice in a spirit of solidarity and the putting into practice of the asserted readiness to cooperate with the providential power of God.
The Eucharistic Liturgy reminds us that Christ, Priest and Victim, offers himself also today without any limits. "But as it is, he has appeared once for all at the end of the age to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself" (Heb 9:26). He immolated himself on the Cross for all humanity, "to bear the sins of many" (Heb 2:28). He gave himself in order to conquer the sin of selfishness that often makes itself felt in the history of human society.
The Eucharist, which renews the supreme offering of Christ and his immolation for the salvation of his, brethren, demands and effects purification of the heart from selfishness, so that the heart opens to others with a spirit of solidarity and of effective fraternal love.
It is necessary to go beyond the limits of strict justice, in imitation of the exemplary conduct of the widow, who teaches us to give with generosity even that which is meant for our own needs.
Above all one must remember that God does not measure human actions by a standard which stops at the appearances of "how much" is given. God measures according to the standard of the interior values of "how" one places oneself at the disposal of one's neighbour: he measures according to the degree of love with which one freely dedicates oneself to the service of the brethren.
7. The Church, which continues the religious mission of Christ, offers the necessary strength for constantly working according to justice in solidarity. Through Christ, who fully assumes a human nature and links it to the divine richness, living communion with God as Love is possible. This innermost strength of God can sustain human endeavours, in order that the fundamental law of life and of human co-existence according to the twofold principle of love of God and love of neighbour can be realized.
Just as the Prophet Elijah does not hesitate to ask the widow for her own share of her sustenance, the Pope does not hesitate today to ask the Representatives of FAO to continue to support and develop the ordinary activities and the operations to be practically set in motion in favour of the poorest of the world.
The Church offers the initiatives of her own institutions and associations which operate among the various peoples and on the different continents.
Above all the Church claims as her obligation and inalienable right the corporal and spiritual works of mercy, especially those charitable works of mutual assistance intended for the alleviation of every human need (cf. Apostolicam Actuositatem, 8).
The Church likewise encourages every activity of the Non-Governmental Organizations. In recent time these Organizations have been asserting themselves through their growing strength, and they are proving an efficient element in the concerted action that the whole of humanity must undertake for the benefit of the poorest of the poor. The Church hopes however that those voluntary activities will be carried out in a truly disinterested manner and beyond all partisan spirit.
Finally, the Church wants to share in the updated awareness of the work done by FAO in order to form public opinion in such a way that the latter will encourage the public authorities and private individuals in each Nation to undertake ever broader initiatives in support of food and agricultural development and will secure active and constant sharing by all in worldwide action.
With this celebration we wish to thank the Lord for the good accomplished and for the generous contributions made hitherto.
I hope that this will also be an occasion for a renewed commitment of each individual to ever more efficient and timely action in the future, according to the obligations and degrees of responsibility that each individual has in contemporary society.

The community counseling department of the Crisis Center for South Suburbia is holding an expanded summer camp for children residing in the emergency shelter and is seeking donations such as art kits and other items, according to a press release.
The Summer Camp Experience originally was introduced to ensure the children impacted by domestic abuse had an opportunity to enjoy fun-filled, educational activities while living in shelter. Over time, the focus of the program has also become therapeutic and healing, the release said.
Mothers are encouraged to attend with their kids. Camp coordinators engage the children in activities designed to help develop team-building and social skills. The activities revolve around educational play and include arts and crafts, nature exploration, reading programs, interactive games and more, the release said.
"Our hope is the program will help bring a sense of normalcy to the lives of the children while they're in shelter," crisis center executive director Edward Vega, Sr. said in the release. "It's important for them to have this peer interaction and structure while away from school."
The center is seeking donations for camp, specifically asking for sand art kits, steppingstone kits, water tables, sing-along nursery rhyme CDs and DVDs, individual chalk boards and chalk and/or individual dry erase boards and multicolored play parachutes, according to the release.
For more information or to schedule a time to drop off donations, contact Kerri Twietmeyer, donation coordinator, at (708) 429.7255, Ext. 126.

Funky Dineva-ism of The Day: Never throw shade to the bitch holding the umbrella.
Joe Budden caused an uproar on social media this week after he booted a female fan from his show in Oakland, CA for talking shit on Twitter.
The drama kicked-off when the offending tweeter uploaded a photo with the caption, "I wish this picture really captured how dead it is in here at this Joe Budden concert."
Attending the show with a friend, Twitter user Paige S complained that she was bored, then uploaded a picture of NoDoz along with the caption "for the Budden concert tonight."
According to her tweets, the Slaughterhouse rapper refused to the stage until she was removed from the venue.
"So we are upstairs at VIP [and the] security asks me if I'm Paige," she tweeted. "I said, 'yes.' And they say, 'Joe Budden wants you out. I feel flattered though, they said they showed my Twitter picture and found me in the club."
Early this morning (November 30), Budden tweeted, "I wish I could rewind life so I could kick that hoe out again" followed with a LOL.
What do you think of Joe Budden having the fan escorted out the show? Let us know in the comments!

I have a MS Access Database in Access 2010 that i would like to put up and make available through a web browser. How can i do this? What is the simplest path? It does have a lot of inner connects and queries.
Can you explain what you mean by "make available"? Do you want to use the data to populate a website? Produce a table of data? Or are you looking at making it interactive, allowing users to update it?
In either case, if you have a large amount of traffic, Access has pretty poor performance and limited connection capability. For a higher-traffic site, more robust databases like MySql, PostgreSQL, or SQL Server would do the job better.
If you just want to use the database as a read-only source (populating tables or fields), Access is OK. You will have to write code to connect to the database and extract the data you need. This can be done in a variety of languages and depends upon what your web server supports (e.g., PHP, ASP, Java, .NET).
If you want to make it interactive, you should only allow registered users access it, so it should be on a password-protected site. Otherwise, hackers will have a field day with it. To make it interactive, you will need more code to connect to the database and control/validate the data types being entered. There are some existing tools that will do this for you, such as this one (I have never used this and cannot recommend it, it is just an example of what is out there): http://ms-office.wonderhowto.com/how-to/put-your-ms-access-databases-your-website-335300/
Or do you simply want to post the database for others to download and use on their local systems? If that is the case, you could share it through a cloud-based tool like Sharepoint or Dropbox. With Sharepoint, you can even control levels of permissions (read, write, edit) - more on that here: http://office.microsoft.com/en-us/office365-sharepoint-online-enterprise-help/build-and-publish-an-access-database-to-sharepoint-HA102435342.aspx
I concur with greenmon that you will need to post some more specifics of what you are wanting to achieve for your users in order to get any useful advice. There are a lot of different scenarios and approaches that could come under this umbrella.

My husband is starting to put in our loooooonnnnngg awaited "bird pond". It will basically be a small, low waterfall emptying into a slow stream and then into a larger very shallow (2" or so) pool that is about 5'x3'and pea gravel covering the entire bottom so they can bathe and play and splash. Any advice, thoughts, etc?? We did purchase an exterior UVB filter to really work on keeping the algae out so we don't have to do any chemiclas, etc. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Sla, I would take a trip over to the ponding forum. I think I have heard people say they are sorry they used pea gravel. You will most likely get alage no matter what you do. I like the natural look the alage gives so I just pull out the excess and let it be. You will love the bird traffic your pond will bring. You will attract other things to so be prepared. Hopefuly you are putting the pond near a tree or bushes for preening and for protection from preditors (but not so close it assist preditors). Be warned Bull Frogs can and DO eat birds, I have witnessed this myself....so have a suitable frog habitat for relocating them to in mind should you get them. |

Some general thoughts after the Raptors open the preseason with a 97-89 win over the Celtics at TD Garden in Boston.
- The first thing head coach Dwane Casey spoke about post-game? Turnovers. The Raptors coughed it up a whopping 25 times with the starters turning it over a total of 16 times.
"I know it's an exhibition game, but we've got to get that way down," said Casey.
– We saw both the impressive growth and the room for improvement from Jonas Valanciunas in this one. He seemed to be more of a focal point offensively than we saw last season and the Celtics didn't seem to have much of an answer for him.
But the propensity for foul trouble is still there. Early on, he picked up a loose ball foul after a DeMar DeRozan 3-point miss and got caught in the air on a Kris Humphries shot fake shortly after that.
After the break he racked up his fifth personal with 3:40 to play in the third and sat until mid-way through the fourth quarter before fouling out with 3:41 to play. Despite the foul trouble, he finished with an efficient double-double of 10 points (5-8 FGM-A) and 10 rebounds in just over 27 minutes of work.
– Solid performance from Terrence Ross (6-10 FGM-A for 12 points) at both ends of the floor, which had Casey lauding the "playoff intensity" of the second-year swingman post-game.
"I played hard at the defensive end and didn't' rush things, kind of let things come to me," Ross said of his play. "I just made the right reads and I attacked a lot more and that's something I've been working on in the offseason."
Taking a step forward in a second year at a particular level isn't anything new for Ross, who made significant statistical strides in his sophomore season at the University of Washington. He's confident that can happen again as a pro.
"That's what I've been telling everybody, my second year is always a better year. I did it in high school and college, so I think it's just translating."
– Raptors fans got their first look at Tyler Hansbrough in action (who missed the team's intra-squad scrimmage in Halifax) and he came every bit as advertised. The agitator was all over the offensive glass (six offensive boards), got to the line frequently (7-8 FTM-A) and added some much needed snarl inside.
Hansbrough tied Rudy Gay for game-high honours with 17 points, nine total rebounds and a block and said Raptors fans can expect much of the same this season.
"I definitely have improved my outside jump shot a little bit, but yeah, that was a pretty good look at my game right there."
– Much was made about the efficiency of the DeRozan/Gay wing duo this past offseason and while they went a combined 1-for-4 from beyond the arc (a couple of those we forced late in the shot clock), they did hit 13 of their 25 shot attempts (52%) from inside the 3-point line. DeRozan, in particular, showed some impressive moves in the post.
"I felt they had good shot selection," Casey said post-game. "They did a good job playing together. They didn't really get a rhythm just because the subsitution patterns are not normal… but I thought they played well together."
– Surefire sign it's preseason? After eight minutes of first-quarter play all five starters were on the bench in favour of D.J. Augustin, Landry Fields, Austin Daye, Ross and Hansbrough. By game's end, no Raptor had logged more minutes than Valanciunas' 27 minutes.

Need for Speed: Most Wanted
An understanding has been reached: EA will dupe the mainstream by calling Criterion's next game Need for Speed: Most Wanted, but give fans of the Guilford based racing game studio exactly what they've been pleading for: Burnout Paradise 2. It's a win-win situation. The trailer shown at Gamescom was a typically high-octane affair with blistering speeds, metal-crunching crashes and breathtaking near misses. Criterion also debuted its Autolog improvements and the ability to jump into other cars at the tap of a button.

Global Agenda version 1.37 hits live servers {Massively}
Sep 21st 2010 9:37AM If your an Australian or Oceanic player, be very warned. When people reference the "Pacific Rim" server farm; they really mean the servers located in the US somewhere. Many Aussie gamers pick this game up thinking that its gonna be awesome and really easy to have a great time with the servers being local, they'd be wrong.
No other faults I have found with the game, except for the horrendous Auction House, but I'll have to wait and see with the new model.
Blood Pact: Tip-top trinkets {WoW}
May 31st 2010 7:54PM I always thought that it was recalculated. Your best bet is to go to the dummy and use a single corruption and try and force a proc from your trinket. This works especially well if you check with an on use +spellpower trinket.
Further, it would diminish our DPS if we have to keep reapplying after many changes in the SP fluctuations. Because there are many, especially if demonic pact procs at the wrong time for those Warlocks in a raid with another Demonology Warlock.

What I learned from the A-Team (Part 2)
Dear Strength Coach or Personal Trainer,
This week's blog is a continuation of last week's blog: What I learned from The A Team (Part 1).
Here is part 2.
#3: The plans used by the A-team utilize the environment and both very simple and high tech equipment.
With my TRX and my grip4orce grips I got a great workout in my father-in-law's driveway and on his patio overlooking the Caribbean Sea on a recent visit. But I can also use a myotest to give an athlete specific feedback during plyometric training (as described in The Flexible Periodization Method.
If you have the chance, make a program for an athlete or client who does not have access to equipment and challenge yourself to make the best program possible. Also, think about what piece of (high tech) equipment that you don't currently have that could make your training programs even more effective.
#4: The plans used by the A-team require perfect timing, cooperation and trust between the team members.
Personally, my expertise area is TRAINING, but I know that some of you may master both training and rehab or training and nutrition. However, in many cases, our athletes or clients may, at some point in time, need help from at least two different professionals (and their sport coach, if they are athletes).
Those different professionals may have different levels of training (shorter certificate vs. Masters or PhD) and they (we) definitely have different perspectives on the training process. With The Flexible Periodization Method, all training interventions are reverse engineered based on the desired outcome as stated by the athlete or client. With this process, the outcome becomes more important than each professional or any type of training (I am not interested in having athletes spend 4 hours per week in the gym to build impressive squat numbers, if they only need one to stay injury free).
What's the best, simplest program that you have ever created?
What piece of high tech equipment are we, as strength coaches and personal trainers, not using enough?
Dedicated To Your Success,
Karsten, MSc., Strength Coach.

The perfect pan-fried salmon
March 26, 2012 in Cooking with Woolies
I learnt how to cook salmon as a child during my summer holidays. While my friends sunned themselves on the beach, I did my bit at my parents' catering company, sometime helping them more than I think they really wanted me to…
I remember watching my dad in fascination as he sliced through fresh sides of glistening salmon, using the sharpest knife in our kitchen. Now whenever I pan fry a piece of salmon, I always smile and think back to those hot days in the kitchen. Maybe that's why I love salmon so much…
I'm actually stocking up on salmon right now after spotting the Woolies' Eat In for 4 for under R150 special offer which includes a wonderful side of salmon at an absolute steal of a price. Salmon is such an easy fish to cook, and it's super healthy for you too.
Here are my top tips with this magical piece of fish:
1. Fresh fish: Only use the freshest fish and a really sharp knife. This allows you to portion it and cut through the outer skin with out squashing the flesh
.2. Perfect portions: Slicing your salmon into equal portions is really important. Sort through by size, the fatter pieces will all get cooked together and the slimmer pieces towards the tail end will get cooked separately. This ensures that they all will be cooked evenly. (There is nothing worse than eating a beautifully cooked piece of fish to only put the next piece in your mouth and finding out mid-chew that is overcooked or slightly too raw)
3. Searing hot pan: The next step is to cook your salmon. Generously rub the salmon with olive oil to coat and Sprinkle with crushed sea salt over the oiled skin. In a super hot non-stick pan, fry a few portions at time skin side down.
4. Crispy skin secrets: Now do not, I repeat, do not turn the fish over until the skin is golden and crisp. You'll know that it's ready to turn over when the skin releases from the bottom of the pan and can easily slide around without you using a spatula to loosen it.
5. Timing is everything, as is paying attention to the fish at all times. Place the salmon with the skin side down first and cook it longest on this side – this is necessary to ensure the heat penetrates the skin through to the flesh. Depending on the thickness of the cut, it should take around 2 minutes. When you flip it over to its flesh side, you will only sear it for about 30 seconds to a minute, at the most. Crispy gorgeous skin with a firm but melt-in-the-mouth blushing pink middle. That's perfect salmon
I also love eating salmon in fragrant, spicy coconut curries. I start off by frying off the curry paste before adding coconut milk and vegetables and letting it simmer for 10 minutes. I then cut my salmon into chunky pieces before adding them to the sauce, covering with a lid and letting it poach for 3- 5 minutes until firm but still succulent. This is perfect for melt-in-the-mouth salmon and cooking it in the curry sauce really brings out a myriad beautiful flavours.
When I have a whole side of salmon I prefer to cook it under a hot grill rather than in a pan. This way it is handled less and cooks evenly, perfect for when you have friend round and want to let them help themselves. I rub the salmon side with olive oil and sprinkle with sea salt before placing it under a hot grill where I let it cook until firm but still succulent, for about 8-10 minutes depending on the thickness of the side and how you like your fish cooked.
I hope that you found some of them useful!

Winner:Betty Crocker
From MN150
Betty Crocker could be argued to be one of the most influential women in Minnesota during the last 75 years. She was the voice of the American housewife and helped create an empire that is still a large part of the Minnesotan economy.
Created originally as an advertising ploy, Betty Crocker soon became the confidante and idol of women all over America. She provided advice on everything from how to satisfy your husband to how to make the perfect cake, using General Mills products, of course, to how to entertain your friends. When my parents got married at 19 and 21 years of age, the first gift my dad gave to my mom was a Betty Crocker cookbook. My mom still has the cookbook and still falls back on it for her favorite dishes. My dad would argue that Betty Crocker taught my mom how to cook. I have since found that exact cookbook at a thrift store and return to its pages to recreate the meals of my childhood, some of which are the best-tasting meals I have had.
To me, Betty Crocker symbolizes family. To Minnesota she was part of the driving force behind the building of an industry giant. It's hard to believe that she never really existed, in the flesh, that is. Betty Crocker was and is alive in households throughout Minnesota and the United States.

In a city steeped in rich history and character, Richmond VA apartments offer a unique living experience that perfectly blends the past and present. As the capital city of Virginia, Richmond welcomes many travelers throughout the year and was the site of numerous historic events. But it's not all about the past in Richmond, as this city is home to a dense art and culture community. Blending a small-town atmosphere with big-city living, Richmond apartments are a relaxing retreat amongst the hustle and bustle. Summers here are filled with music festivals and community events, while the nearby outdoor recreation options are perfect for a weekend nature getaway. This charming Southern town literally has a little something to offer everyone seeking to make Richmond, Virginia their home.
Richmond Apartments and Cost of Living
People looking for apartments in Richmond VA will enjoy the overall cost of living, which is only 1 percent higher than the national average and lower than other cities such as New York and Miami. According to PayScale, the cost of housing is 10 percent lower than the national average, but healthcare is 13 percent higher. Residents will also pay slightly more for transportation, groceries and utilities.
Many of Richmond neighborhoods have a diverse demographic; for example, the Museum District and The Fan are both welcoming to everyone from "starving" students to wealthy families. These urban neighborhoods boast tree-lined streets, Victorian townhouses, converted Richmond apartments and duplexes. People who like a suburban-feel within an urban environment may prefer Woodland Heights, just across the James River in Southside. Hugely popular among artists, Woodland Heights is known for its diverse architecture and quiet parks. Bellevue has a similar atmosphere, and is located at the very edge of the city limits.
Richmond has become more welcoming for bikers in the past few years, and is home to one of the best urban mountain bike systems in the southeast. However, those who prefer to walk may want to look at Richmond apartments for rent in the Monroe Ward, City Center, Jackson Ward, Carver or VCU neighborhoods.
Students looking for apartments in Richmond will be near some of the area's best colleges and universities. University of Richmond, Virginia Commonwealth University, Virginia Union University and Bryant & Stratton College are a few of the area's schools.
People who are making the move to Richmond will also find the city has a prosperous and diverse business economy. Some of the area's top private employers include Capital One Financial Corp., VCU Health System, HCA Inc., Bon Secours Richmond Health System, Dominion Resources Inc. and Wells Fargo & Co. The city is also home to 10 Fortune 500 companies.

I bought 2 Pow Wow Wild Berry and 3 Pow Wow White coneflowers yesterday at the Rutgers Gardens sale. Has anyone ever tried to plant these close together in an arrangement that caused them to mingle, at least on the edges? I would have planted them in a row or grouping (whites together, Wild Berry together), but one of the gardeners there said she would try them in a kind of circle, mixed so they looked more 'natural.' I am not sure if doing something like that would detract from the beauty of the wild berry alone, and I am finding it hard to imagine how they would look in a circle. This picture is the closest I could find online to the idea of whites surrounding the berry (see first photo, about 2/3 of the way down the page, under Echinacea Purpurea). I am not sure if I love it. What do you think? Does anyone have any thoughts or photos (or alternatives)? |
Here is a link that might be useful: White Coneflowers around PowWow Wild Berry
Follow-Up Postings:
I would do what I call a star pattern: 2 in the front row, 1 in the middle, and 2 in the back row. Put the white one in the middle row, and the second white one in either the first or third row. Space the plants about a foot apart. Keep in mind in the first year you're probably not going to get that full, lush "mingling" look, but be patient - that will happen. White tends to make most other colors look brighter. I have a mixed planting of "White Swan" and "Magnus" coneflower, and I really enjoy it. :0) |
I think white and pink coneflowers look pretty together. The mix of Powwow berry and white together would probably give you a more uniform look to the plants. You could try a zig-zag pattern, 3 whites in back and 2 pinks in between in front. I have Powwow berry, but not white. I've got other whites - 'Primadonna', White Swan and Baby swan and assorted pinks, Prairie splendor, Powwow, Bravado, and a seedling I've selected, and they are sort of randomly mixed. Most were started from seed. Here's white swan with some random E. purpurea taken a few years ago- |

West Side Books' direct online business is fairly modest, so we go with the simplest possible solutions:
PayPal lets you use your credit card (or your PayPal account) to send us payment for your books, which we'll pack and ship soon after the transaction comes through. It is as secure as any site in the world. Click below and follow the usual online payment routine. Don't send money until we've given you a final price (with modest shipping costs and tax, if required).
Q: Why does the button say "DONATE" (?!?!!!)? As much as I love West Side Books, I don't want to make a donation to a retail store.
A: PayPal assumes a seller has a fixed price list for every item they sell, and we've got too many distinct books to do it that way (over 30,000 new, used, and rare books). So, we'll provide a price, with shipping, by phone and/or email, and you'll pay that sum as a "donation," which allows you to type in whatever specific price we've agreed on with you. "Donation" is the only standard Paypal option that permits this.
Take our emailed price and this promise as reassurance that this is not a "donation" as such: you're purchasing the books you discussed with us, and we'll get them right off to you. The "donation" name is a quirk of the PayPal system, and we don't make enough online transactions to justify paying for dedicated credit card processing. (Though we're getting there.) If it bothers you, let us know, and the feedback may push us toward setting up a more customized payment solution.
Other options:
- Give us your credit card number on the phone, if you're comfortable doing that. Our staff are trustworthy, and they'll type it into the keypad without writing it or recording it anywhere. Your choice. 303-440-0220.
- Or send a check, if you're not in a hurry. Whatever suits. If we've got your book, we'd like to sell it to you in whatever way you feel comfortable with. Thanks, always, for coming to West Side Books, in person or online.

AcneFree's Sport Clear Skin System is meant for active people who want a daily anti-acne routine with multiple benefits. It includes 3-in-1 Acne Sport Cleanser (4 fl. oz.), All Night Hydrating Acne Treatment (2 fl. oz.), and 12 of the company's 3-in-1 Acne Sport Wipes. Like all of AcneFree's kits, the products are a mixed bag that fails to offer a proven solution for managing acne, whether you're active or not. In fact, there is no difference in treating acne, whether you have a sedentary or active lifestyle.
The 3-in-1 Acne Sport Cleanser is medicated with the proven anti-acne ingredient salicylic acid (also known as BHA), but in a cleanser this ingredient's benefit is rinsed down the drain and, therefore, far less effective. The same is true for the antiseptic benzalkonium chloride, but this ingredient would be ineffective anyway because in this formula it is combined with a sulfonate cleansing agent, which destroys its antibacterial benefit (Source: Preservatives for Cosmetics, Second Edition, Allured Publishing, Steinberg, David C., 2006, page 55). Moreover, the small amount of research associating benzalkonium chloride with acne is dated; it's definitely no match for a leave-on product with salicylic acid or a topical disinfectant with benzoyl peroxide.
All Night Hydrating Treatment is a very good topical disinfectant that kills acne-causing bacteria with 3% benzoyl peroxide. The lightweight lotion also contains tea tree oil, but not enough to provide antibacterial benefit. It does contain some good soothing agents to reduce redness.
The kit is rounded out with 3-in-1 Acne Sport Wipes, which provide minimal cleansing but do contain 2% salicylic acid. That would be incredibly helpful and convenient, but the pH of these wipes is too high for the salicylic acid, a pH-sensitive ingredient, to function as an exfoliant.
The wipes also contain a preservative (methylisothiazolinone) that is not recommended for use in leave-on products. It can be sensitizing, so you'll want to rinse this solution from your skin, which defeats their convenience feature for the active set.
AcneFree is a small group of skin-care products sold in sets. As you may have guessed from the brand name, this is a line that's all about treating acne. You'll find this brand in most major drugstores, but it's not the acne treatment system to beat!
Owned by University Medical Pharmaceuticals, you'd think these products would be a slam-dunk for acne, but they're not. Although the kits contain some good products, all of them feature at least one product that's not effective for its intended purpose or contains irritating ingredients that will make your acne worse.
Just because the company claims these kits (systems) are the #1 best-selling in America doesn't mean they work; rather, it means that a lot of consumers with acne are buying the wrong products. We understand the frustration of struggling with breakouts. You want something that works to get rid of them, and the faster the better. It would be great if AcneFree could make good on all of its promises, but it simply doesn't, at least not 100%.

The OSU Sustainability Office and Energize Corvallis have teamed up to help answer some burning questions.
Did you know that by placing a 6-inch pan on an 8-inch burner you are wasting about 40% of the heating energy being used to prepare food? …or that properly inflated tires save about 3% of your fuel use, the equivalent of saving about $0.12 per gallon? How about this one: refilled ink cartridges use up to 80% less energy than making new cartridges. The average printer cartridge can be refilled 5-7 times, and up to 97% of the material that printer cartridges are made of can be recycled.
If any of the items mentioned above apply to you, or if savings of carbon, money and natural resources are of interest, join Campuses Take Charge this fall to challenge yourself to 3-5 carbon reducing actions. There are even categories of actions specific to OSU students at large or in residence halls.
Registration is very simple and at the end of a one month period, we'll ask for your feedback about your energy saving actions, and then mail you the exclusive Take Charge Coupon card featuring great discounts on local businesses.
Thanks for taking charge and helping OSU demonstrate further leadership in sustainability!

old time Broomfield
Absolutely loved this video of Broomfield Heights and planning. My dad's house was building permit #49 in the first filing.I was born a year after they moved in July of 58. Some of the pictures of digging foundations were a few hundred yards from the grain elevators off 120th near Old Wadsworth. The Emerald elementary school still has the same playground equipment that we played on 47 years ago. Amazing footage, with homes you could still recognize today. Lots of stories about growing up in Broomfield and the vision that the city planners had was right on with this video. I'll look for more in the archives.
Birth Of A City interesting
This film about the planning and building of Broomfield Heights was interesting. It was probably made around 1956. For many families Broomfiewld Heights was,and still is,the perfect place to live. I am happy for them.

Product of a Planned Community
This was amazing to see and to find. I was raised in Broomfield. I was 5 years old when my family moved there, and started attending Kohl Elementary School, and later attended Nativity School.
Now looking back I see that I am a product of a planned community. The documentary brought back early memories, and I must say that growing up in Broomfield at that time was a special experience. Front doors unlocked, parks to play in, the city within the highways was open and safe. The ideals that were expressed in the documentary are some of the best things that I carry with me now.
I have now moved around the world a lot, seen many things, filled my head with ideas and information that was only available at the time from Mamie Doud Eisenhower Public Library, right next to the Dentist Office and the Broomfield Star Builder Newspaper office.
It was a town where we had "The Bank", "The Grocery Store", "The Drug Store". The city fathers put gas stations at the entrance to the town, so we could get our car filled coming and going.
Mostly it was a place to grow a family, and as our large family grew we had a safe place to go all over town. The bowling alley was considered dangerous. They had pinball machines.
My parents are still in the house that I grew up in, and looking at this documentary I see them searching for a place to raise a family, choosing Broomfield, and moving us there. I see my mother and father in these images, with the clothes of the era, and the hope and ideals that were from a time that Eisenhower passed the Presidency to Kennedy, and a torch was passed to that generation.
Looking at this did not make me want to return to the past. That is never possible. It was also a past where in first grade the whole town had regular drills with air raid alarms that "warned us" of a nuclear attack, and we were instructed to duck under our desks at Kohl School and cover ourselves from broken glass. Of course, our skin would have melted, but we were prepared.
No, we can't return to the past. I am cautious about the idea. That was then.
Now we can plan our own communities, in whatever manner we are able to arrange them. Hopefully with tolerance and open hearts.
This documentary makes me appreciate the gift that I had to be raised with an ideal, albeit naive, that I can carry with me now.

Where they are Now
Oddly enough, Broomfield Heights has finally realized the dream of the bombastic narrative and has gone beyond a city and is now City and County of Broomfield. The population is currently between 30 and 35 thousand as predicted by the Turnpike Land Company. While it may be a bit of a bedroom community for Denver and Boulder it is not the sort of suburb assumed by the two previous, rather cynical reviews of the film. It has a thriving technical park and other industry. The site of the original "giant shopping mall" is home to a Target and a couple of serviving restaurants and professional services and is hardly noticeable but much land has been annexed in the formation of the new "city and county of" and the shopping district has been recreated as a new high end mall and shopping village a bit closer to the front range and Highway 36 to allow easy access from Boulder and Denver. The city's massive new recreation center is nearing completion and it is merely the begining of the new plans for the downtown.
There are numerous "developments" withing the city limits now so it has the begining of its own "urban sprawl" these days. Still, it is a thriving growing town, city whatever term makes you most comfortable that has its own identity and a view to the future.
It would be silly to think the film was something other than a "commercial for living in this 'city' or 'town'", why else would it have been made? But just because the company that started the venture was looking for a profit (they were red blooded American capitalists after all, even if they do invoke the idealism of Greeley) doesn't mean the people who settled here were anything less. Stop in sometime, you might like the place.

Birth of a City
This really should be called Birth of a Suburb. The planning and building of Broomfield Heights, Colorado, a suburb of Denver, is shown. You know what you're in for when you find out that the "city" is planned around a giant shopping mall. Now I don't live anywhere near Denver, but I just bet Broomfield Heights is just another neighborhood in its urban sprawl by now. After all, it is a "suburban dream of yesterday." Still, this movie is fun to mst, as it has bombastic, newsreel-style narration.
Ratings: Camp/Humor Value: ***. Weirdness: **. Historical Interest: ****. Overall Rating: ***.

There's a difference between a 'city' and a 'subdivision'
In this film, the building of the 'city' of Broomfield Heights, Colorado is documented. Men meet, plans are drawn up, contractors come in, houses are built and people come. One wonders if this is not one big commercial for living in this "city" or "town" or whatever they seem to call it from one instance to the next. The film didn't really capture my attention. A better film on this site with a similar topic is the 1965 Parade Of Homes.

Avis's Info...
I am already neutered, housetrained, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
My name is Avis and I am one gorgeous beast of a boy! I am a Great Pyrenees and Golden Retriever mix, about 4 years old. I have to tell you, before Adopt A Golden Knoxville saved me from a Kentucky shelter, life was grim. I was a good 20 pounds underweight and my body was full of scabies. But now I am healthy, at a good weight and a very happy boy. I love other dogs and I love to be petted. I am house trained and I will do ok in a crate. I probably need to go to a home with children over 12 years of age because I don't like being restrained. It scares me and reminds me of my horrible past. I love my toys, my bed and my two foster moms - and they take good care of me but I need to find my forever home. Is that you?
For more information about adopting Avis or another Golden Retriever or Golden mix, please go to our website at www.adoptagoldenknoxville.org, Knoxville to New England page.
NOTE: All of the dogs with Adopt A Golden Knoxville are currently being fostered in East Tennessee. We do not have a shelter or a facilty where you can meet these dogs.

Why Adoption is a Great Option
Avis, a Brattleboro Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever for sale in Brattleboro, or seeking a Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever dog from a breeder in Brattleboro.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Brattleboro already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Brattleboro breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever breeders who help with Great Pyrenees/Golden Retriever rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Brattleboro paves the way for another one to be saved.

"Sexually abused by a government official"
Hundreds of letters of complaint about the TSA's invasive security procedures released this week under the Freedom of Information Act include numerous horror stories about TSA screeners directly touching people's genitals during pat downs.
Following a FOIA request in 2010, the non-profit website Governmentattic.org has released the files after a two year battle with the TSA to make them public. The letters can be viewed here.
The letters confirm what we first reported back in 2010, that the TSA's new security procedures for "advanced pat downs" include literally touching and in some cases groping the genitals of travelers.
In one incident which occurred on October 29, 2010 at Hobby Airport, Houston, a woman reveals how a TSA screener "putting her hand on my vagina," caused the woman to "have traumatic reaction that lasted for days."
In another letter, a woman complains to Congressman Mike Turner about an incident that happened on November 12, 2010 at Dayton International AIrport. The woman explains how a TSA screener, "felt my inner thighs and my vagina area, touching both of my labia."
The woman relates how she stood for a minute holding her baby without being able to move having been "sexually assaulted by a government official."
