"Eh...didn't do it for me"
Not really. I didn't think the characters were particularly interesting or fully fleshed out. I never really cared about what happened with Faith's mother. I was pretty bored at many points in the book, and was happy the book was fairly short.
Yes, though some of the male voices (like Mick's) were actually distracting.
No, I don't think there are any open story lines - I'm not sure that there's anything to follow up on.
Try a different Maya Banks book - this one wasn't one of her best.
"Blending problem solving, science, and space!"
This book was a pleasant surprise for me - one of the top books out of the 30+ I listened to over the past year.
Not surprisingly, it was Mark. He's the central (and for much of the narration, only) character, and I enjoyed his humor and creativity.
Mark was great, but I also really enjoyed Venk - good accent by R.C. Bray.
There were a few points where Mark just wasn't catching breaks at all, so it was great when he finally got some things to go his way.
The fluke accident about 2/3 through the book seemed so unfair - definitely a wrenching part of the book.
Don't be turned off by the science element of the book - I didn't find it intimidating, even when there were parts that were above my head. It's just a great story that happens to take place on Mars.
"So-so start to a series"
It took me quite some time to get into this book. I think the premise was really interesting, but it was hard to get past the Psy vs Changeling mindset.
I've never read any other book by Nalini Singh
Soothing but slow. I sped up the listening to 1.25x.
I didn't really love the main characters; I wish I cared more about them.
Not sure I will read any more in the series.
"Wish I hadn't started this series"
I really enjoyed the first book of the series, and was moderately interested in the second book. This last book has been a slog! I've listened to all three of these books on audio...for this installment, on more than one occasion I found myself rolling my eyes or saying out loud in my car, "are you serious?!" I felt like the tension was forced (except with Benjamin, what a creepy guy). The weird devotion Diana feels to so many people was insane - do your kids each need 12 godparents and four names?! Excessive.
After more 70 hours of listening over the past 3 years, I kind of wish I hadn't picked up the first book. I could have saved almost 50 hours of "it must get better, right?"
Overall, two stars because it's an inventive plot and the narrator was decent. I do recommend listening at 1.25x speed as the narrator is pretty darn slow.
"Learned a lot while on a road trip"
I listened to this book on a cross country road trip with my sister-in-law, and I loved chatting about different cultural aspects the book covered. The age at which a child becomes an adult in this time period is much younger than now, and we found that royal/noble children were forced to grow up even more quickly. The book does a nice job of highlighting this coming of age.
Juba! His character is much more complex than I originally thought.
No, I think I needed time to process each section of the book - the material was fairly dense and we sometimes had to jog our memories to recall who a specific character was. I think if we had listened to it in one sitting, the characters would have jumbled together.
This novel covers quite a few deep themes: slavery, class, conquest over an enemy, love, teenage pregnancy, and more - it does rush through some of them, but overall does a nice job tackling these big topics.
"Little bit of mystery, little bit of paranormal"
This was a fun, light read. I've listened to quite a few books - while this doesn't crack my top favorites list, I still found it enjoyable, and occasionally found myself staying in the car longer than necessary to hear a bit more.
Imaging Harper and Hollis at the gospel choir while Tolliver likely pouted at the motel was pretty funny.
I haven't heard her other books, but I can say I think she did well with a slow southern drawl.
I laughed out loud at a few points. I did get pretty annoyed by some of Harper's tics.
Charmaine Harris usually writes enjoyable books, and this one didn't disappoint. It was worth a credit to me.
"Intriguing read"
I didn't guess most of the "aha" moments - I like that in thriller novels.
Possibly John Grisham books...this isn't a legal thriller, but some of the plot and characters are Grisham-esque.
This was my first one, I certainly enjoyed it.
When the hero thought or spoke about his former life. I found these scenes to be pretty powerful.
"Gripping story, great performance"
While I really liked this book, I don't think I'd listen to it again - a big part of my enjoyment was wondering what would happen next. That said, the narration was simply excellent, so it wouldn't be bad to have an encore listen.
I liked how the author really made me love then hate different characters at different points throughout the book.
Fantastic narration and pitch perfect emotions. The narrators made a good book great.
There were many points where I could really relate to the characters - I really liked that. Then there were points that were so crazy, I couldn't believe it. Fun ride!
"Speeding up the narration helps a LOT"
Guilty pleasure listen
For me, the story is pure escapism - liked seeing how "the other half" lives (on several levels)
Spoken faster - the only way I could get through this book (particularly the boring beginning) was to listen to the narration at 1.5x speed! At that speed, it seems more like normal speaking - I can't even imagine listening to it at regular speed.
No, I listen to it while working out, and it feels like it has good breaking points - while I want to hear more, it's not enough to keep me on the treadmill! :)
"Davina Porter brings a cherished series to life"
I've been a fan of the Outlander series for years, and periodically go back to read them. I've also listened to several of the books on audiobook, and Davina Porter simply brings the story to life. The characters become old friends, and I find myself hearing Davina's narration when I am reading the e-books.
There are lots of great moments in the book, but a particularly amusing one was when Jamie tells Claire about the men who were chasing him in Paris, and he grabbed a large sausage as a weapon. His storytelling (and Porter's excellent narration) made the moment truly funny. It also introduces a great character, Fergus.
This is a tough one, because there are so many wonderful scenes. The entire section around Wentworth Prison was gripping and the bond Jamie and Claire have is so clear. I am certainly not saying the scenes between Randall and Jamie were my favorite, but the connection Claire rebuilds with Jamie afterward was hard-fought and moving.
Maybe Jenny - she doesn't go out on many "adventures", but is clearly the rock of Lallybroch. I would love to talk with her about that.

Wonderful in Every Way!
My family and I spent a wonderful week for my daughter's wedding in OKC in this fabulous home. The house is a beautiful as pictured with very spacious rooms in an up-scale, quiet subdivision. Its location is easy for airport access and shopping for everyday needs. There were 5 adults in the home and we never felt like we were on top of each other. The bedrooms are large with walk-in closets and the master suite is incredibly large with a magnificent bathroom. All appliances are modern and there were plenty of cookware, dishes, etc. We especially enjoyed the huge flatscreen tv in the family room for down-time. The real estate manager met us upon arrival to show us around the home and was very helpful with details about departing. The beauty, comfort, quiet and spaciousness of this home added to the special reason for our trip. If we return, we would definitely consider renting this home again. Just perfect!!
Awesome Resort and Amazing Service
Joyce is a professional and hosts guests from all around the world. This is by far her most amazing property. The master bedroom suite is incredible. It is completely secluded from the rest of the house much like a bed and breakfast. It has a huge bathroom with a small kitchen built into the room. The bathroom and shower are gigantic. The gym downstairs is really cool as well. I would highly recommend it!

It made audiences scream to the tune of $20 million last weekend, and it faces competition that will surely keep it from hitting the top of the box office this weekend. Nonetheless, the studio has provided us with a large selection of photos from the movie, plus we found some alternate poster art that we thought you might find interesting. When viewing these photos, keep in mind that this is a horror movie, so you're not going to be seeing any photos of flower-covered meadows... In addition to the photos, check out the videos on the Trailers and Videos page before making the trip to the theater, just to make sure that this is the movie you're looking for.

Is this what life over 50 is suppose to be like?
I am 52 years of age - and probably smack into the menopause / night sweat gig. I was ok dealing with this but then came. . .
1. The great recession that took my income down 60%
2. Got work with a corporation that only decided to freeze incomes for 3 years then laid us off.
3. Had a husband going through a 30-day addiction treatment center. Only to have him come home and take a part-time job for the past 6 years while I always had the primary income job.
4. Now he tells me I am overweight (Fat), a little crazy and that my attitude stinks. The more he keeps saying it seems to be becoming my reality especially since I am having trouble finding my place back into a meaningful career.
So - We never had kids (never found out why-so not blaming one or the other) but is it really me? Is it the menopause hormone thing or is it that I am starting to believe the 'crazy' person I have been living with all these years and he is helping take me down the tubes?
I just want to run away or drive off to never never land - Please tell me that this too shall pass.
I am sorry you are going through this. You are the only one who can stop it, by redirecting your thoughts to pleasant things. Listen to good music, read uplifting books, watch movies that make you feel good. take a nature walk. I was very unhappy and lonely in my marriage until my Mom told me I was dwelling on my husbands faults. She said I need to turn my thoughts to the good things he does and she was right. That advice helped in other situations also. As silly as it sounds, I stopped my tension headaches by playing Nintendo. I could not play the game and think of anything else.
Pamper yourself!!
Life in your fifties is focusing on your plan .
You can plan on accepting the changes or choose to make each day fun.
I went to bed aged 51 and awoke feeling 100 four years ago. I was irritable, depressed, angry, sore, tired, and searching for answers.
My discussions with the orthopedics , my GP and the gynecologist was nonproductive and frankly scary. The Internet offered me a better insight with why I was feeling so lousy , depressed and slipping into a negative state.
Having always focused on the kids, hubby and home I decided I need to focus on myself so I wrote myself an email listing all my complaints and things I should be grateful . I found myself watching all the women at the grocery store . I seriously looked in the mirror noting what changes I could make that benefits me. The focus was placing me on the top of my to do list.
Your hormones are what make your skin supple, your joints flexible , your mental state balanced and your tendons pliable. It took me a few years to realize I had entered menopause early. All the medical personnel missed the dx cause I stopped my cycles at age 45.
Place the focus on what would make you feel pretty.
Get your eyebrows waxed. I can no longer hold eyeglasses and trim my brows.
Color your hair every six weeks. I use l'oreal every six to eight weeks religiously . Drove me crazy to hang out in the hair salon for three hours and pay a 300 tab. Do what works for you but do it.
Lose weight! I found cutting out bread allowed me to drop five pounds. No I was not on a diet but just ate no wheat products.
Walk and stretch daily! The lose of hormones makes your tendons brittle .
Tight tendons pull on muscles which pull on bones. Several times a day I stretch my hamstrings, arms and back. Seriously takes a few minutes and I feel wonderful.
Google hamstring and back exercises . Just doing a few daily will make you feel great.
Change your diet. I eliminated bread and added flaxseed, unfiltered apple cider vinegar and calcium with vitamin D to my regimen.
Lastly have sex! I have absolutely zero interest but I understand that my husband does. I use the romp in the bedroom as ways to get a body massage. Maybe tmi but it works. I don't tell him but I think of what I need around his needs.
Put yourself first.
Lose weight for your benefit.
If you are ever in the north east and see a fifty? old woman returning her shopping carts and five more it is moi! I purposely park the car a distance and return carts . The extra ten minutes walking and pushing heavy carts keeps me trim and in shape.
Make a plan for you . Lose three pounds and then look to do three more.
Do things that make you smile.
Seriously was crawled up in the fetal position until I decided I want to live and how can I make this better.
Start today .
I have another suggestion and I speak of it because of seeing it when out shopping. Please don't take offense. Dress well and I don't mean expensively. Look in the mirror when you get dressed, if it makes you feel bad, you need to change your style. Wear clean loose fitting clothes, no tight sweats/knits. Wear slacks or jeans with a t shirt or tank top and an over shirt or loose sweater that you leave open. Wear pretty colors then look in the mirror. You will be surprised at the difference it makes. I saw a lady at a pizza parlor who was dressed so nicely I walked away thinking how nice she looked, not how "fat" she was and she was close to 250 to 300lbs. I told her as I went by "you look very nice" and she returned the compliment.
Thanks for your post - life over 50 is a challenge!! Re-evaluating life seems to come along with the crashing fatigue, hot flashes, poor sleep...
I try to spend my valuable time with people who make me laugh - coincidentally not DH.
I plan to make serious changes in my life over the next 5 years in response to this menopause hormone thing.
Please take good care of yourself.

text: [[AC:FridgeBrilliance]]* During its original run and well into syndication, I couldn't stand ''QuantumLeap'' -- the "rules" governing Sam's time travel made no ''sense'' to me. "He's bouncing around from time period to time period, and he's stuck in each life until he makes things... ''nice??''" One weekend, the SciFiChannel ran a marathon of the final episodes of various shows, and I happened to catch the finale of ''QL'', which reveals that the controlling impulse behind Sam's "leaping" is [[spoiler: his own subconscious drive to make the world a better place, one life at a time]] -- and I then proceeded to catch the show five days a week for the next few months. -- Tropers/YourObedientSerpent** The other thing that I realized (then Googled and realized to my disappointment I wasn't the first) was that, especially clear during the last season, he was realigning the "Ziggy Version" of history to match our version and that after those "major" events in modern history were lined up, he was done except for one last thing (having Beth wait for Al) which completed the alignment and therefore returned to his "Ziggy History" timeline and disappeared from our timeline (thus ending the series) -- Tropers/GaidinBDJ* In "Star Light, Star Bright," Sam is hypnotized, and on tape, gives away the secret access code name and numbers regarding top secret information about Project Quantum Leap. An episode later, we meet an evil leaper and hologram. Clearly, someone else found the tape, accessed PQL's files, and set up their own project for personal gain!** Mind. Blown.** And thanks to the events of "Shock Theater" and "The Leap Back," one of the Project's handlinks is left stranded in the 1940s and unaccounted for. It won't work for another 50 years, but it's completely intact and undamaged. Between that tape and a piece of technology that could be reverse-engineered...** That explains why the evil leaper organization does everything exactly the same with different sound effects; hologram technology, handlink, etc. Plus, Zoe was aware of just how long the window was before a successful retrieval could be performed, which means the evil organization may have improved on PQL's math.* Throughout the series, Sam displays a reluctance to engage in any sort of relations with women, a fact that Al laments constantly. Near the end of the show's run, it is revealed that Sam [[spoiler: is married]], and suddenly his hesitation can be interpreted as a subconscious reaction to [[spoiler: the possibility of cheating on his wife]]. It also gives a more unfortunate implication to the times when he does it anyway, though.** Donna states that she does understand, knowing that he can't remember her and is doing it to improve the lives of those involved.** There's also the fact that when he did sleep with someone in "Trilogy", he fathered a child.* In "The Leap Back," when Al drops the letter with the override code (and the $100) to the law firm, with instructions to deliver it on a specific date in the future (a la Back to the Future), the imaging chamber door immediately. This is because, as soon as Al dropped it in, there was no way for him to retrieve it. Hence, the "outside" time was when it was delivered, according to Gooshie, that very day.[[AC:FridgeHorror]]* Occasionally, history changes to avoid a disastrous marriage. This was even the point of at least two episodes. The problem? Some of the marriages resulted in children but now, those children will [[RetGone never have a chance to live]]. Sam and Al are essentially murderers and never show any remorse about it. In one episode Al even gleefully proclaims something along the lines of "Now she won't end up having a couple of screwballs!" Suddenly, Sam and Al ''don't'' seem like such [[NiceGuy nice guys.]]** It's not murder if you prevent someone from existing but, yes, that is pretty horrifying. There are presumably new kids who exist who live better and happier lives than the old timeline's but saying that the happiness of the parents is worth more than the ''existence'' of the children...It's a problem.** I always thought of it like The Inquisitor from Series/RedDwarf. Instead of children being born who would do nothing with their lives, we get children who never had a chance to exist being born, children who might contribute something to society. And considering that Ziggy never reported that their children did anything (as the OP pointed out, they were a couple of screwballs), then we must assume that this was the case in the other occasions when Sam broke up a marriage.** Plus given the existence of a seemingly benevolent God in this setting, chances are that while the kids as we know them were RetGone, they exist in some sense as different kids.* It's been accepted by fans for years that Sam's changes to history were slowly turning his timeline into ours. The problem? His timeline was far more advanced than ours, not even counting time travel. His efforts have resulted in progress slowing down!* It's said several times that Sam can leap anywhere in his own lifetime - but we never see him Leap ''past his original Leap.'' Which - to me at least - means that even though Sam's body is leaping around in time, he effectively died at that moment, the events of "The Leap Back" only happening post-Leap in his timeline.

How many coats on what?
Hi all,
We've had five estimates for painting the interior of our home. The upstairs is brand new plaster walls with pre-primed trim and doors. The first floor is just a freshen-up.
The first, and lowest, estimate was primer everywhere, one coat paint on ceiling and closet walls, two coats on everything else. Is that acceptable? The three closets will have closet mades.
The last painter said he could match the estimate if he only did the above and was able to come in before the finished floor was down to spray the primer and first coat on everything. He would still guarantee the work. This was for the second floor.
We have been doing the painting ourselves on our new second floor. 1 coat of primer, which the newly plastered walls soaked up a TON of. 2 coats of the final color on the walls. 2-3 coats on the trim, depending on how much sanding I had to do in between coats. 2 is usually enough, but I had one door casing that got bumped while drying, so I basically sanded off a coat to get it smooth again.
Just curious, how much are the estimates? Oh - and does it include sanding the walls and patching/caulking the nail holes & gaps in the trim? Even a great finish carpenter will have little gaps between the casing and wall sometimes, if you don't use latex caulk to seal that before painting it won't look as good. And the nail holes have to be puttied & sanded. The walls won't need much work before painting but you probably still want to run your hands over them to feel for any bumps or blips that the plasterers left. its often easier to feel them than see them on virgin plaster.
The cheapest estimate for one coat primer, one coat white paint on ceilings and closet walls and two coats on everything was $7500. I thought that was a lot so I got four other estimates, all of which were in the $9000 an$10,000 range for two coats on everything.
The painter I will probably go with gave me a quote of 9200. When I told him about the $7500, he said he could do the job for the $7500 if he could spray paint the primer and do the one coat in closets and ceilings too.
I must say I was shocked to find out the cost of painting.
The contractor is oing the caulkng of trim and the plaster guy is SUPPOSED to come bac to fix a few spots.
Are you really going to pick the winner by who is the cheapest? I thought those days were long gone, or at least they should be.
Watch putting anything over fresh plaster, and if none of the painters has spoken or asked about that, there is a reason NOT to go by price.
Well, If it makes you feel any better we were quoted $8k for our second floor. And that's why we are doing it.
It is not a job for the faint of heart. I figured out that it takes me about 20-25 min to scuff sand, tack off, and paint one side of our doors. We have 9 doors (3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, 1 linen closet). Each door needs at least 3 coats, which means 1 hour for each side of the doors or 18 hours on JUST doors. These are pre-primed, too, so the first pass is just touching up the primer after a good sanding and vacuuming.
Add in door and window casing, the baseboards (not pre primed), and everything else and it is a TON of work. I'm starting to understand why they want $8k. But ... That will buy new windows for the first floor so I keep painting. I'm taking a break from those damned doors right now, in fact.
We have spent a chunk of money on painting so far, even though we had some tools:
8 gallons of paint @$42 each
2 Five gallon buckets of primer @$75 each
Roller covers, tray liners at $15 total
Good brushes (Purdy) for $50 (roughly)
A power roller to replace the old one that died $90
A good extension pole that clicks at different lengths instead of screwing tight (and then unscrewing when you use it) $30
All total, I expect to spend about $1000+ in supplies. Some stuff is reusable, lots isn't. And I expect we will need more paint before we are done, too, so,add another couple gallons to that first line item.
This is a really long way of saying ... If you can afford to hire someone to paint, then do it. If we didn't need windows so badly I would not be doing this now :)
must say I was shocked to find out the cost of painting.
Painters have families to support too. :)
Yes they do!
Have you had an estimate for a new roof, had a plumber in, electrician, carpenter? All would put the painters price to shame.

Spring Swap
Who wants to make plans? My place is available as always, with a smile.
Boy, a couple of warm days, and we all start thinking SPRING. I was just telling myself, don't jump the season and bring up the spring MAG swap yet.
But since our gracious and wonderful hostess mentioned it....
I'll start the ball rolling for a date. How about Saturday May 14? That takes us out of Mother's Day weekend.
What say you all?
I say chocolate for everyone.
My oldest will graduate from college on May 14. It breaks my heart to miss: I had such a great time meeting everyone last year.
But sounds like it's a good day for most: Have a ball and thanks to GardenGrandma for the fabulous venue!
I am new to the forum but I would love to participate in a swap. I live in Arlington, VA. I don't have many things I can swap myself because I moved at the very end of July and am starting from scratch. But I would love to buy from neighbor gardeners if that is possible! All bests, Cece
May 14 is perfect; we vote for that. I believe it's the day of the big Green Spring sale, but any serious person is going to show up at that a little before 8:30 so would have time to get stuff and then get there a bit on the late side for the swap.
I'm going to try.
I'd love to see everyone.
I've quit my job, so my Saturdays and Sundays might become available again, which would let me have a life!
I might not have anything, given the neglect and disrepair (read: Survival of the Heartiest!) my gardens are in, but I know the rules...
No plants? Bring FOOD preferably
wahoo!!! May 14th works for me!!! I'll be there.
haven't taken full inventory of my garden yet, but I'm sure I've got lots to share. Since I've been home recuperating, DH was so good this weekend and cleaned/trimmed the back garden. He even decided to prune our apple tree, LOL (came out a little lopsided) !!!!!
I plan on fixing it when he's not around.
See you all (rain or shine) on May 14th @ gardengranma's
I ALWAYS miss the swap, because I don't see the posting about it until afterwards. This time I saw it before! I haven't been active on the site the last two years, but actively did see swapping, posting and general chatting prior to that. Problems with my back, then pregnancy and a new born all kept me from being able to garden. This year, seeds-a-plenty are started, gardens are getting their TLC and I am ready to plant,grow and SWAP! I am located in Harford County. :) How can I get in on the swap and meet up?
The location for our Spring MagSwap is at Gardengranma's compound in Spencerville. How do you find it?
you will need to switch to the Exchanges section for this MAG forum.
First go to main page for Mid-Atlantic Gardening
scroll down 1/4 of page and you will see:
On Topic Discussions: Switch to: Exchanges : Conversations
Click on the link for Exchanges, it will open a new page with light blue background
Look for postings that say: mag spring swap
You should find 3 separate threads for our 2011 MagSwap with headings of spring mag swap: plants you have, plants you want, food/potluck
Post to the appropriate section.....remember if you don't have plants, you are still welcome to come and join us.....you can bring food for our potluck lunch which usually starts at 12noon after we have swapped/traded plants. It takes a lot of energy to do the swapping!!!!
MagSwap tomorrow!!!
Since Henrietta & Larry are so gracious in hosting the plant swap at their beautiful property...let's all remember to bring food for the potluck lunch (burgers, hot dogs, salad, anything yummy!!) As well as cups, plates, forks, napkins and garbage bags.... Go to Exchange section and list what you will bring.

Store Owner Installs $350K of Surveillance to Stop Frivolous Lawsuits
Supermarket owner Rafael Cuellar from Passaic, NJ, reports that he had to spend $350,000 to install 69 surveillance cameras, recording devices, and video storage banks in order to stop fake "slip and fall" insurance claims against his store. It's a cost that just adds to the cost of living for everyone and is a perfect example of the abuse of the legal system that we see every day with this avalanche of frivolous lawsuits.
While the cameras also help Mr. Cuellar track and prevent shoplifting–another expensive problem in retail–the main purpose of the cameras, he says, is to stop abusive, frivolous lawsuits lodged by unscrupulous crooks pretending to be customers.
"Yesterday alone we had a consumer who came back in [the store] and claimed she fell," Mr. Cuellar recounts in the video, Supermarket Swindle (seen below). "Once the loss-prevention director said, 'Let's pull it up on the camera,' she goes, 'No, I just twisted my ankle.' And the story changed all of the sudden."
Cuellar spent half a million dollars to prevent being inundated with these frivolous lawsuits. Imagine what he could have done with that money if he didn't need to waste it in such a manner. He'd have been able to expand his business, advertise more, hire more people, or even do more for the community.
"Being an entrepreneur, you always want to continue to grow," Cuellar said. "But I do think twice about it, because of the things I can't control."
This isn't just a problem in Passaic, New Jersey, either. This is a problem seen throughout the country. Imagine the billions wasted a year to attempt to prevent frivolous lawsuits and just imagine what better uses to which that money can be put.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Sign of tolerance in an intolerant society
TRAIL, B.C. -- When equality and religious rights butt heads, as in the controversy over the proposed law school at Trinity Western University, Canadians need thoughtful analysis and informed discussion, not knee-jerk reactions. The recent decision of the Law Society of B.C. to approve the proposed TWU's Faculty of Law shows a principled approach to a thorny problem.
There is considerable opposition to the proposed law school at the privately funded Christian university, also approved by the B.C. Ministry of Advanced Education, the Federation of Law Societies of Canada, and various provincial and territorial law societies. A lawsuit has been filed against the B.C. government for approving the school and a B.C. lawyer has circulated a petition to members of the B.C. bar to force the Law Society to reconsider its decision.
At issue is a clause in TWU's Community Covenant Agreement that reads, "Further, according to the Bible, sexual intimacy is reserved for marriage between one man and one woman..."
The Community Covenant Agreement at TWU is a roadmap for personal and community conduct. It is based on the institution's acceptance, as expressed in the agreement, that the Bible is "the divinely inspired, authoritative guide for personal and community life."
All TWU faculty, staff and students agree to abide by the covenant, and to model themselves after biblical virtues, as interpreted according to the university's evangelical Protestant tradition.
The traditional view of marriage and sexuality expressed in the Community Covenant is a sincerely held religious belief and the university requires a level of sexual restraint from all its members. Nevertheless, the implications of the clause discriminate against the enrolment of LGBT persons, and have called into question the university's ability to properly train individuals who, as lawyers, must swear an oath to uphold the rights and freedoms of all people.
Because of this clause, the proposed Faculty of Law at TWU raises complex questions about religious freedom, freedom of association and equality.
There are no easy answers when the rights of two disparate groups conflict. The benchers of the Law Society waded through approximately 2,000 pages of material before making a decision. In a rigorous examination of issues and opinions, the Law Society considered legal advice from a number of advisers, federation reports and close to 300 public submissions, which were nearly evenly divided for and against TWU.
Because rights and freedoms are not absolute, it is sometimes necessary to balance them against each other. In the balancing act, there are no clear winners, as the Law Society debate illustrates: TWU did not come out smelling like a rose even though the benchers voted in its favour.
Whether we agree or disagree with the decision, the process of respectful and informed debate can help us more comprehensively grasp nuanced issues, and lead us to a more compassionate understanding of those whose beliefs, lifestyles and identities differ from our own.
The controversy is an example of the tension that exists in Canadian society between religious rights and equality rights. This tension is not going to go away. No matter on which side of the fence we find ourselves, we need to work at respecting the rights of others and honouring the spirit of the Charter of Rights and Freedoms. We cannot "live and let live" only when the manner of living falls into line with our worldview. To do so runs the risk of swapping one form of intolerance for another.

Do I need moulding at the top, and is it too late to add it now?
During the planning process I didn't know if we were going to get an 8 foot ceiling, so I got 93" tall cabinets and we ended up with a 2.5 gap between the cabs and ceilings. I thought I'd like having a few inches to "breathe" but now that everything's in I'm not so sure. Is it possible to add the moulding at this point? How would you attach it?
I'm posting a picture, do I need the moulding, or should I just leave it?
Thank you in advance, oh wise ones!
You definitely need at least filler, molding is optional depending on your esthetic; your shaker style doors would go with a straight 45" molding. Any cabinet installer can install fillers, and do install fillers all day long. :)
I would go for an architectural looking molding to match your aesthetic if you could vs just filler. There will be a slight seam if it's just filler going straight up from where it ends now - where you have the change to really set off your cabinetry with molding that could be really sharp. It doesn't have to be floofy traditional looking - something that matches your style. That said, It's hard for me to judge how much space there is there. If it's literally two inches or so, get the filler and be done with it. It will also raise the effect of your room - vs bringing it down with that gap.
You attach a clean from inside the cabinet. Then look at doing a simple angled wood crown molding, or even a simple cove crown molding. Both would fit the modern look and be more complimentary than a just space filler.
Not sure how the molding was applied on my cabinets but I think it looks good with Shaker style doors. It is a 2 piece step crown about that measures about 3-3/4 inches. I'm sure a good carpenter could add molding now. I think it would look better with crown than the open space.
I just measured mine and looked at the order from the cabinet maker.
The order calls it square crown and it was for 3 inch and 2 inch crown
Then top piece on mine measures 2 inches so I assume the one under it is the 3 inch. The underneath piece is actually showing only 1 inch. So the total height of my crown is 3 inches not the 3-3/4 that I said earlier. You might still be able to do a step crown with 2 inch on top and only have a 1/2 inch of the underneath board showing.
Hope this info helps. I love how your kitchen is looking. Good luck on the finishing details.
Your contractor should graciously do it! It has to be put on AFTER the cabinetry anyway. With my cabs, we had to wait and play around with what look best on the cabs were installed. You should be in good shape - this is the time to figure it out :-)
