CHICAGO (AP) — The pitch was just a tick up, and Starlin Castro was ready. When Edwin Jackson was limited to five innings, the bullpen took over. Pedro Alvarez's drive fell short on the warning track.
Castro powers Cubs past Pirates 6-3
These are fun days for the improving Chicago Cubs.
Castro hit a three-run homer and Jackson finally got the better of Charlie Morton, leading the Cubs to a 6-3 victory over the Pittsburgh Pirates on Friday.
"This is the nicest I've felt about this team since I've been here," said Anthony Rizzo, who was acquired in a January 2012 trade with San Diego.
Chris Coghlan added a solo shot as the Cubs opened a 10-game homestand with their fourth win in five games. Last-place Chicago also improved to 18-13 since May 17 for the best record in the NL in that stretch.
"Everything in this game is contagious, whether it's positive, negative, hitting, defense, pitching," Coghlan said. "I think we're having more team at-bats."
Jackson (5-7) was removed after 86 pitches due to cramps in his calves, but it was enough to get his first win in four matchups this year against Morton (4-8). The right-handers have faced off more than any other pair of starting pitchers this season in the majors.
Jackson allowed three runs on Jordy Mercer's fifth homer and five hits. He struck out eight and walked two in just his second win in his last six starts.
Alvarez had a chance to tie the game when he came to the plate with two on and two out in the sixth. He took a frustrated hop between first and second as Ryan Sweeney ran down his long fly ball in the biggest part of the ballpark.
Andrew McCutchen struck out with two on in the seventh, wasting another Pittsburgh threat.
"Pitching's been pretty great all year. The offense is coming around, and the defense is coming around as well," Jackson said. "So we're definitely showing a glimpse of what we're able to do. It's just going out and doing it on a consistent basis."
Pittsburgh rookie Gregory Polanco opened the game with a single to center, extending his hitting streak to 10 games. He is the first NL player to begin his career with such a streak since Juan Pierre's 16-game run for Colorado in 2000.
The Pirates have lost four of five since a four-game winning streak.

AMT Energy Conference 2015
DragonRising Latest
Love EFT: Positive EFT For Love, Romance & Relationships by Silvia Hartmann
Make Love YOUR Goal For 2015!
Master Energist
New! The Master Energist is a live three day training currently conducted by Silvia Hartmann only and represents the highest level of certification as a modern energist.
Participants must be current members of The AMT - The Guild of Energists and hold the EFT Master Practitioner certification, the EMO Master Practitioner certification, and the Project Sanctuary Master certification.
Required Reading For This Course: Positive EFT, Energy EFT, EmoTrance, Events Psychology & Infinite Creativity by Silvia Hartmann.
Master Energist FAQ with Silvia Hartmann
What is this new Master Energist course? Is it like an advanced Trainer's Training?
No, not at all. It's not a Trainer's Training. It's the high-end energist's training, and I use the word training loosely here.
So how does this course work? What exactly is being taught?
A big part of the Master Energist is Project Sanctuary, learning to stream information directly from your energy mind. That's where the creative, true creative direct response comes from.
How long does this course take and is there a distance learning option?
This is a three-day (and at least two nights!) live and interactive group event, I prefer that to a training. At this level, the actual learning happens by interaction, by the energy that is being exchanged and what happens spontaneously with individuals in the group.
AMT courses work in such a way that when you have taken the training, and you are a trainer, you can also teach this course. Is this the case for the Master Energist?
No, this course is the exception to the rule. There are numerous reasons for this.
The Master Energist course is currently priced at £1,249. Some might say that's too expensive.
I really don't think so. Remember that this is not a course for everyone, indeed, it's only a few people who would really aspire to this level of complexity and involvement.
The course is called Master Energist, not Master Practitioner or Master Trainer. Why is that?
That is because as an energist, you don't have to be a therapist, or healer, or a practitioner of anything.
Why do you think this course is important to the advancement of The AMT as a whole?
It is important because although The AMT began as an association of therapists and healers, there is so much more to being an energist in every imaginable way and then beyond.
Can anybody become a Master Energist?
No. You really, and I mean really, have to know the basics of how energy works and you have to be congruent as an energist first.
There is a long list of required reading for the Master Energist course, Positive EFT, Energy EFT, Oceans of Energy, Events Psychology, and Infinite Creativity, do you really have to have read all of those?
Absolutely! I would consider those to be foundational for any modern energist and/or AMT member.
Are you planning to run the course outside of the UK?
Not at present.
How do you feel the Master Energist will help shape the future of The AMT?
The AMT, our trainings, what we do and how we do it, is all based on creative patterns, research and working with energy in mind.
Have we answered your question? If not, please contact The AMT.
After originally planning not to attend, I booked at the last minute, I had the overwhelming feeling that I had to come! I jumped on a plane from Sweden and I'm glad I did.
A marvellous and magical time only begins to describe it.
Continuing to powerfully unfold in time and space after the experience as brilliant Silvia Hartmann sourced events do. Truly transformational.
Of course, the fellow "voyagers" in the group were absolutely perfect. It was as if a master energy mind said "give me five wildly different people who together represent all aspects. It was simply a blast!
Laura Moberg - Master Energist
I loved it!
The Master Energist training was probably the most fun I've ever had as an energist.
It was so nice to not look at a training from a practitioner point of view.
Nuhar Abrahams - Master Energist
It was amazing! It was a journey from start to finish that I felt contained everything I wanted.
Oliver Peltier - Master Energist
The Master Energist course is unique in form and content. It is truly transformational as genius Silvia Hartmann leads her students on what can only be described as a magical journey in time and space.
This course is not for the faint-hearted. It is for Energists with the desire and courage to be amazed and raise their energy work to new realms of possibilities.
We had such an incredible group of people, each of us was so different, so unique.
I don't think I have ever enjoyed a course so much in my life!
Irene Loudon - Master Energist
All I can say is that I have always been a voyager and this week for me, has definitely been the icing on the cake!
It was possibly the best course I have ever done with the AMT. I made a breakthrough that has evolved my awareness of who I am as a person and as an energist. I have had many wonderful shifts in my life already and this showed me how the world is magical with all the possibilities that we are now able to perceive.
I loved how the course broadened our vision of what is possible from the energy perspective. What a gift to be able to look at anything at all and see possibilities even though it may not appear like this to the casual onlooker. Silvia helped us to use all that we have learned in the other core AMT courses and synthesized it so that we can integrate it more easily into daily living. I returned home with a resolution to revisit all I have learned and to discover even more there.
I'm pushing on in years, but there is always oceans of energy waiting to still be discovered!

Apple releases iOS 7 for existing iPhone, iPad upgrades
The Cupertino, Calif.-based technology giant dishes out its latest mobile operating system, which to even long-time using iPhone and iPad users will be a welcome fresh lick of paint.
The Cupertino, Calif.-based technology giant dishes out its latest mobile operating system, which to even long-time using iPhone and iPad users will be a welcome fresh lick of paint.
Startups MokiMobility and Revel Systems are teaming up to marry PCI monitoring and management with iPad point-of-sale technology.
The technology giant has released a software update for iPhone and iPad users, following reports of an Exchange Server calendar related bug that would overload servers.
The elderly often find technology to be physically challenging to embrace. The iPad mini is changing that due to its small size that is light enough to be easy to handle.
Analysts say the new touch sensor technologies in Apple's iPhone 5 and iPad mini are expensive to manufacture but enable their thin industrial design.
The Cupertino technology giant's fourth quarter earnings are out. On the call, Apple executives discussed China, retail stores, iPad mini profit margins, and Tim Cook even took time to slam Microsoft's latest tablet incarnation.
Microsoft is telling customers that its new tablet's display is sharper than the iPad 3. "Not so fast" says an internationally recognized research scientist specializing in display technology.

The iPad's biggest success has been among K-12 schools. That's where it also faces one of its strongest competitors, a spinoff of an obscure 29-year-old Midwestern company that has made inroads where Amazon, Google and Samsung could not.
If Apple has priced the iPod touch, starting at $299, then how does this affect how the technology giant would price the much-anticipated (but as yet totally mythical) iPad mini 7-inch tablet?
Sponsored by Sap
The iPad and iPod Touch have been huge hits with children and schools. But there's a new wave of Android devices and tablets created by vendors taking advantage of Android's open-ness to create devices tailored specially for kids and teachers. Updated Sept. 27, 2012.
It's possible for Apple to build an iPad Mini that wouldn't cannibalize full-size iPad sales, but it would mean turning to previous-generation technology to do it.
It didn't take iPad buyers long to discover just how useful the Smart Cover was due to the magnetic technology integrated in the tablet. The Nexus 7 by Google has the same technology, but you've never seen the company mention it.
Debt-ridden Proview Technology, which earned US$60 million in iPad trademark settlement in China, was sued by its legal advisor over failure to pay attorney's fees in the case.
Two of the world's biggest technology companies will today front up in court for their patent-infringement case over the Galaxy Tab 10.1 and the iPad.
Google is not just about finding a good deal on an iPad or searching for cat videos - what if its technology could be used to hunt criminals?
Android is poised to outpace iPad sales in the enterprise market within the next 12 months, according to technology media company International Data Group.
Fujitsu may have accidentally stumbled across the ideal tablet for consumers that brings the Ice Cream Sandwich version of Android, a quad-core processor and good connectivity, but is pitching it primarily for business use
This new case adds a full keyboard to a smart cover for the iPad, using on/off technology integrated in the iPad.
With the new iPad containing cutting-edge technology (namely, the Retina display), some early adopters are experiencing strange issues. Read my experiences, then chime in with your own!
Having conquered the iPhone and iPad, Apple's retina display technology could be looking for new screens to brighten, with new MacBooks the likeliest recipients of the extra pixel density.

abney and associates hong kong news,bringing internet snooping to book
Revelations that GCHQ and the NSA have tapped into the internet on a huge scale have rightly provoked outrage. But intelligence analysts aren't the only ones likely to be tempted by the captured information.
The internet has transformed our relationship with information – and with the world – in ways that continue to surprise us. That may appear to many readers, especially those below the age of thirty, as a statement of the blindingly obvious but I think it can bear repetition.
The latest evidence for the transformative power of the web comes from the explosion of outrage detonated by Edward Snowden's revelations that the NSA and GCHQ have been tapping into online activity on an unprecedented scale and with little apparent legal, congressional or parliamentary oversight.
The extent of the snooping, which has targeted friend and foe alike, has upset many. Our allies in Germany and France are furious; Noam Chomsky is alarmed; the founding fathers of the "land of the free" are reportedly spinning in their graves; and John Kampfner has sounded a grim warning about the further erosion of the West's moral authority over more draconian regimes. Even senior staff at MI5 think that GCHQ may have gone too far.
Among the general population the reaction appears more mixed. There is disquiet certainly but a significant fraction of the population - almost half in the US – has shrugged off the snooping. Perhaps primed by powerful fictional accounts of electronic espionage in TV shows such as Spooks or Homeland or the Bourne films, many of us have long presumed that we are under surveillance and so were unsurprised at the news. I suspect also that a generation happy to splurge the minutiae of their lives over Facebook and Twitter is less likely to be concerned that personal information is up for grabs by the government.
We should not be so blasé. Privacy is a precious commodity. Its commercial value emerged clearly, if grubbily, from the accounts of intrusive journalism unearthed by the Leveson Inquiry. But how far does the state have the right to track our private lives, even if it is in the pursuit of our rather ill-defined national and economic interests? Most would agree that the state has some business monitoring internet traffic, to sniff out trails of criminal or terrorist activity, and there are plausible sounding reassurances that valuable intelligence has been obtained in this way (though it is hard to test such claims).
However, we still need to be wary of our guardians. Our police forces have shown a cavalier disregard for the law when it comes to gathering information on environmentalists, or the families of murder victims or when cosying up to the press for cash. How can we ensure that our intelligence analysts operate to higher standards, now that we have discovered them to be siphoning enormous torrents of information from our computers into theirs?
The admission by GCHQ lawyers that the UK has a "light oversight regime compared to the US" is hardly reassuring. Given the pace of technological change, the state's ability to capture and process information from the web will only increase. It is too early to tell this internet-altered world how we are going to find the proper balance between the invasion of privacy and the rights of the individual, but if we are to maintain any semblance of democracy these questions need to be weighed in public and in parliament.
And yet, amid all the brouhaha, the thought did occur to me that there could be an upside to the discovery of unprecedented levels of state-sponsored snooping. There is one group that might privately be wishing they had access to the information flows being sucked into GCHQ: biographers.
The authors of biographies have, I suspect, very mixed feelings about the perturbing effect of the internet on their profession. Online digital archives – such as the amassed material on the history of DNA at the Wellcome collection – are certainly a boon to biographers (and historians in general). But at the same time, email has almost completely extinguished the art of letter writing, a quintessentially private medium that has traditionally provided access to those incautious remarks that can be crucial to unmasking character and motivation. Such letters (or copies) were commonly preserved by the recipient or sender until after their death – so that the boundaries of privacy were preserved – and bequeathed to families as treasured mementos or to libraries as valuable archives.
I have been reading scientific biographies of late, tracking the development of x-ray crystallography during the 20th century through the lives of figures including Desmond Bernal, Dorothy Hodgkin, Rosalind Franklin and Maurice Wilkins. In each case the text is coloured and enlivened by snippets from private letters that were written long before the web enveloped the globe.

List items
1. The Orange Box
The best value package ever to be released as well as one of the best playing. It brings the classic Half Life 2 and its episodes to the consoles as well as the brilliant newcomer Portal.
2. Call of Duty 4: Modern Warfare
An exciting thrill ride single player combined with probably the best multiplayer component outside of its direct sequel (which I didn't put here as I mainly play campaigns) CoD 4 offers the best fps experience available on consoles or the pc.
3. Mass Effect 2
Building upon the excellent universe and characters of the first game with improved shooting mechanics, better graphics and all round removal of "jank" Mass Effect 2 more than makes up for the removal of some of its more traditional rpg elements. A true modern classic.
4. Uncharted 2: Among Thieves
One of the finest games of this generation and probably one of the finest games ever made. Again building upon its successors already great graphics and gunplay to continue the adventure of the best set of characters of this generation.
5. Grand Theft Auto IV
A game that is unfairly harassed on internet forums. Yes it doesn't have the craziness of the previous games but it does create a convincing city to serve as a backdrop to its enthralling story and well developed characters.
6. Battlefield: Bad Company
Offering huge amounts of freedom, expansive levels, funny characters and dialog and big fucking explosions Bad Company successfully brings the Battlefield formula to the single player arena. It gets its position here because its sequel drained almost all of these elements out of its single player.
7. Crackdown
I thought about putting Prototype here and remembered its bullshit final boss fights so the game that inspired it gets in instead. This game is not cerebral, its story barely exists and it has tons of bugs however its also as fun as shit to drive a wedge shaped sports car around and then throw missile launcher trucks into traffic jams causing system crippling explosions.
8. Forza Motorsport 3
Incredible variety of cars, tracks and a racing model that can be as forgiving or ruthless as the player wants. The next Gran Turismo game will have a huge amount to do to come up with something to beat its old rival.
9. Killzone 2
A by the numbers single player almost doomed this game in my eyes but the fantastic team based multiplayer ensures that this game stakes its place as one of my favourites from this generation of consoles.
10. The Darkness
This unfortunately overlooked gem deserves a place here for creating a convincing slice of New York while also allowing you to eat peoples hearts with your demon tentacles.

Canna roots
I have a five footer Canna now in bloom but diseased. I plan on removing it, and was just wondering if someone can tell me about its root system. Would it be difficult to remove and in its entirety? Also I am including a macro photo of a cluster of blooms that someone here told me to cut off. The round raspberry looking pods are seeds?
This post was edited by boothbay on Sat, Sep 14, 13 at 17:03
Removing your entire underground rhizomes is not difficult but does require a little effort. Loosen the soil completely around and under the plant. Use the foliage to pull the entire plant out of the bed. I find using a heavy digging fork works better than a shovel. Your soil makeup will determine the amount of effort required.
Your stem containing the seed capsules have likely not matured to the point of maturity needed to harvest viable seed. You may wish to revisit the reason for the earlier recommendation. I am guessing that these pictured seed capsules needed another 5 to 10 days to mature before removing. The capsules typically will become somewhat dry and turn brown before you can harvest mature seed. Sorry for the misunderstanding.
"Also I am including a macro photo of a cluster of blooms that someone here told me to cut off. "
Hi again, are you referring to this discussion? There's nothing said there about saving seeds as a goal of yours.
Agree, those are not yet ripe. That's why I said: "The flower stalk can be removed at this point, so the plant doesn't put any effort into ripening those seed pods." This does not say to cut it or not cut it, just that it can be cut if the desire is for more flowers to form instead of waiting for the seeds to ripen.
Is your diseased plant in the ground or a pot?
The lines and circles were drawn for another purpose, but these are Canna rhizomes I dug up recently. If in the ground, you may want to wait a few weeks after excavation before planting anything else, just to make sure you got them all. If you didn't, you'll soon see new foliage coming up. Within a year, the amount shown in the pic can make enough new rhizome material to fill a 5-gallon bucket. Some of it can be quite deep in the ground.
Sorry for the misunderstanding...mea culpa...No, I am not interested in seeds at all. Yes, its in the ground, the healthier one is in a pot. I suspect that whatever is eating the one in the soil is a plant of my neighbor that is actually hovering and touching the eaten plant. But her plant looks healthy so i do not know if that is the cause.for sure. All I know, other plants in that spot have had no problems in the past, such as this one. Yes, new blooms have appeared on the one that i cut off.
Not a problem - smiles! Being eaten is not a disease. Is your neighbor's plant also a Canna? Lots of things that fly like to eat Canna leaves in passing, but there are canna leaf roller caterpillars in particular that (you guessed it) live in the rolled leaves. They don't actually roll them, but do seal them shut with webbing so they stay dark and moist inside. Then they eat the tender new growth, preferably the flower buds, before you ever even see them. Does that sound like what's going on? They are a huge problem here, requiring daily maintenance. I don't know how far north the problem extends, probably the same as the range of the Cannas.

Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
Saturday night in two historic votes the importance of faithful Catholics in both major political parties became crystal clear.
Prior to the Stupak/Pitts Amendment, the funding of abortion would have occurred through both the so called 'Public Option' and through what are called 'affordability credits' which are to be given to certain health care consumers in order to purchase insurance. It was, as many including this writer pointed out, a 'shell game'.
Catholic Online (www.catholic.org)
11/8/2009 (5 years ago)
Published in Politics & Policy
Washington, D.C. (Catholic Online) � In a November 19, 2008 article in his always interesting �Inside Catholic�, my friend Deal Hudson, Ph.D., properly praised then candidate Joseph Cao who was running for the 2d District Congressional seat in Louisiana. The article was entitled �The Jesuits Produce a Great Political Candidate� and it noted: �Joseph Cao is a Catholic lawyer and former Jesuit scholastic from New Orleans� Few candidates for public office are as forthright as Cao when asked about their position on abortion. �I am very anti-abortion,� he told me without hesitation. Cao would like to overturn Roe, but in the meantime, �We have to find a way to defeat Roe without having to overturn it.� His solid pro-life credentials are attested to by the endorsement of the FRC Action PAC, among others.�
Saturday night, in two historic votes, the importance of faithful Catholics in both major political parties became crystal clear. I am sure my friend Deal Hudson is surprised at now Congressman Cao�s decision to break ranks and become the only Republican to support the passage of the House version of "Health Care Reform". This occurred only AFTER the Bill was amended to remove what Was contained within its scheme, a clear authorization of Federal Funds to kill children in the womb through Abortion. I am not surprised. I may not agree with him because I have other concerns about the legislation, but I understand and respect his decision. After all, in the very same interview cited above, then candidate Cao gave Dr. Hudson an indication of his views concerning how he would approach his public service in these words: �I went all over the world to work with the poor and experienced a crisis of faith in Mexico over human suffering and God. I asked my spiritual director, �What is God doing about all this suffering?� He told me that �God sends people to help.� That was when I began to realize my calling was politics.�
First, let there be no more wrangling about the facts. The Bill as proposed by Nancy Pelosi - an unfaithful Catholic who should be ashamed and strongly opposed in her next campaign while we all pray for her return to the truth - promoted the intrinsic evil of abortion. It would have funded the feticide of our first neighbors in the womb. End of discussion. All of those folks who tried to argue that all of us who sounded the alarm over this evil were wrong have been exposed as frauds. The phony compromises and fake amendments were a subterfuge.
Before the determined and courageous efforts of Congressman Bart Stupak, a Pro-Life Catholic Democrat whose name along with Republican Joe Pitts of Pennsylvania of the 16th District of Pennsylvania is on the now historic amendment, the legislation would have funded more abortions with tax dollars. The �Health Care Reform� legislation which passed last night as HR 3962 - by a vote in the House of Representatives by a vote of 220 � 215 - would have had a lethal effect, resulting in the intentional killing of potentially millions more of our first neighbors. Thank God for the courage and perseverance of faithful Catholic Democrat Bart Stupak!
The Stupak/Pitts Amendment was strongly supported by the United States Catholic Conference of Bishops who worked with admirable persistence and courageous clarity in order to force its passage. It actually was passed earlier in the evening by an historic vote of 240 to 194.Some cowardly members did not vote at all. This amendment stripped abortion funding from the otherwise anti-life Legislation. Prior to the amendment, the funding would have occurred through both the so called �Public Option� and through what are called �affordability credits� which are to be given to certain health care consumers in order to purchase insurance. It was, as many including this writer pointed out, a �shell game�. It would have resulted in the spilling of more of the blood of the innocents in our Nation. Congressman Bart Stupak, Pro-Life Democrat, is the hero of the hour.
Congressman Bart Stupak is a faithful Catholic and a Democrat from the first Congressional District of Michigan who Co-Chairs the Bi-Partisan Pro-Life Caucus with another faithful Catholic, Republican Congressman Chris Smith. Stupak is one of a strong and vocal contingent of Pro-Life Democrats who carry on the legacy of the late, great Governor of Pennsylvania Bob Casey. They hear the cry of all the poor, including children in the first home of the whole human race, their mother�s womb. They recognize the truth that these dear children whom Mother Teresa rightly called the �poorest of the poor� have no voice but ours. These fellow Americans living in the womb are our first neighbors. It is men and women like Bart Stupak and Chris Smith who are the models of public service for all Catholics and other Christians.Stupak is a Democrat, Smith is a Republican.
Congressman Stupak told a reporter before the vote, "We're asking members to maintain current law and oppose federal funding on abortion." He affirmed that he did not somehow barter his vote for the legislation in exchange for the allowing of the vote on his amendment. He actually supports the notion of Reform which is offered in the legislation but would never, ever, ever compromise on the fundamental human right to life and the first freedom, the freedom to be born. Now, other Catholics can and do disagree with him on many other aspects of this legislation. In fact, I do - and I have written concerning my disagreements as it relates to the principle of subsidiarity and whether such a concentration of power on the Federal level is prudent. However, Congressman Stupak is an example of how a faithful Catholic can be � indeed must be � morally and politically consistent and never compromise of the inviolable dignity of every human life.
Promoters of the tax funded killing of children in the womb such as Colorado Democratic Rep. Diana Degette, formed a chorus of opposition to the Stupak/Pitts amendment. Among her specious arguments, she tried to compare the funding of abortion (the intentional killing of a child) with cancer treatment! Think about what this reveals, she views the child as a disease to be eradicated? However, Congressman Stupak and his allies did not back down! Congressman Chris Smith noted on the floor the recent account of a former Planned Parenthood director who resigned after watching an ultrasound of an abortion killing a baby and stated "Abortion not only kills children, it harms women physically and psychologically and risks significant subsequent harm for future children� If we truly want to see fewer abortions and want to reduce them, then don't fund it�. Millions of people are alive today because of the Hyde amendment." God Bless faithful Catholic Republican Congressman Chris Smith!
Other courageous Pro-Life voices who spoke out in support of the Stupak/Pitts amendment were Democratic Reps. Kathy Dahlkemper of Pennsylvania, Brad Ellsworth of Indiana, Dan Lipinski of Illinois, Marcy Kaptur of Ohio and Republican Reps. Mike Pence of Indiana, Cathy Rodgers of Washington, Paul Ryan of Wisconsin, Michelle Bachmann of Minnesota, Louis Gohmert of Texas, and Fortenberry of Nebraska. The Anti-Life voices were the Democratic lawmakers who supported the funding of the continued killing of children in the womb with tax dollars included Rosa DeLauro of Connecticut, Lois Capps of California, Nita Lowey of New York, Barney Frank of Massachusetts, Mike Quickley of Illinois, Barbara Lee of California, Jan Schakowsky of Illinois, Sheila Jackson Lee of Texas, and Louise Slaughter and Maloney of New York.
I know that my friend Deal Hudson is concerned that the fight over securing this protection for life in the womb is far from over as this Legislation moves to the Senate. I share that concern. I also know he has other concerns over other many aspects of the legislation. I share some of those as well. However, where we have some disagreement is over the long term solution to the bigger problems faced in our Nation and the best political approach to be taken by Catholic citizens. I believe it is time for a �New Catholic Action� which brings together Catholics who are Democrats, Republicans, Independents - and any and all other permutations of political labels - who will work together in accordance with a hierarchy of issues and values which are first informed by Catholic Social Doctrine, rightly understood.
I maintain that our Nation would be better served if both major political parties began with the clear foundational understanding of what constitutes authentic justice, which must of necessity begin with the recognition of the dignity of every human person, at every age and stage of the continuum of life up to and including natural death. In other words, if both major parties were Pro-Life, we could then have a debate over so many other issues concerning the best way to continue in extraordinary American experiment in self governance. I know many like my friend Deal Hudson may see that as a bit unrealistic. And, I must acknowledge, that the Platforms of the two major Parties are clearly divergent on this matter of the fundamental Right to Life. But, soon to be 55 yrs old, I have never lost my idealism and refuse to begin to do so now.
What occurred last night with the heroic Pro-Life courage of an authentically Catholic Democrat named Bart Stupak and his pro-life colleagues on both sides of the aisle only further confirms my conviction of the need for a new model of Catholic activism which moves away from the stale labels of �conservative�, �liberal�, neo-conservative� (which may be what used to be called neo-liberal?), �Republican�, Democrat�, �left�, �right��. And moves into the heart of what our Church offers the entire world in the truths and principles offered in what is called her Social Teaching. A �New Catholic Action" would focus only on the issues which matter most and apply a hierarchy of principles leading to effective political participation and Catholic action. Once again I maintain, �Catholic� must always be the "Noun". It must be what defines us before any adjectival political description is added on.
It must also become the ground from which we move into the broader culture acting to to renew it from within through our participation as leaven in the loaf. The Social Teaching of the Catholic Church, properly understood must become the framework through which we inform all of our political and policy positions. It should also become the material with which we build a new model of political participation and a better society for all serving the true common good.

Apple unveils iOS 8
Apple CEO Tim Cook officially introduced iOS 8, the company's newest operating system for iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch, at WWDC today. "iOS 8 is a giant release," Cook said.
After the introduction, Apple's Craig Federighi took the stage to cover iOS 8. New interactive notifications in iOS 8 let users respond to notifications without leaving current apps. Double tapping the Home button can now allow users to quickly access recently used contacts, in addition to apps. Spotlight now shows results in the App Store, news, iTunes, movies and more.
QuickType now supports predictive typing suggestions when typing. The feature is context-sensitive and personalized, with promises of privacy and increased language support. Federighi also showed the continuity features linking iOS to Mac, as seen in the Mac presentation.
Tweaks to messages in iOS 8 allow users to name threads, add and remove people from a thread, use Do Not Disturb to mute notifications in a threat, or choose when to leave a thread. Locations can also be shared, and an enhanced view lets users show attachments shared within a thread. A tap-to-talk feature lets users insert voice and video messages within a thread.
The new Device Enrollment Program will automatically configure iOS devices for enterprise users straight out of the box. Federighi then introduced HealthKit.
Family Sharing in iOS 8 allows family members to auto-share photos, calendars, reminders, and more. It allows up to six family members who share the same credit card to access all of the family's purchases. A child wishing to make an app purchase will send a request prompt to their parents' iOS devices.
Within Photos, iCloud will now allow users to search for any photos taken on any device. Photo search lets users search for specific photos using location, time, and other options. Smart Editing controls now lets users have immediate photo editing options. After 5GB of free storage, iCloud storage will now be offered at $1 a month for 20GB, and $4 a month for 200GB.
Siri now lets users access the feature by voice. It will now support Shazam, iTunes purchases, streaming voice recognition and 22 new languages. Maps have also been improved, with China gaining vector-based maps.
App Store search has been improved. Developers can now show app previews, and can offer app bundles — a number of apps at a discounted price. Free beta testing is now available through TestFlight. All the features will be available in the fall, Cook said.
In iOS 8, third-party apps can interact with each other. Third-party apps can also have widgets which will be accessible from Notification Center. Third-party keyboards can now be used across iOS 8 as a new extension. Touch ID is also being opened up to developers.
HomeKit was also introduced — a common network protocol for home automation.
Also introduced was Metal, a new graphics system that allows for advanced rendering and improved performance, and SceneKit a 3D renderer for more casual games. SpriteKit also received an update. Apple also introduced a new programming language, Swift.
iOS 8 will be available in the fall, and it's available in beta as of today.

He Said, She Said: Our DIY Column Is Back
If this magazine cover looks familiar, then you've probably already noticed that the second appearance of our "He Said, She Said" column in Do It Yourself Magazine is out on newsstands.
Seeing it again was no less exciting than the first time we tackled decorating disputes from both sides of the gender line, especially since we got to cover even more reader questions (hooray for two-page spreads!). Plus we got the help of a professional illustrator to bring one of our floor plan suggestions to life. It felt like what we imagine providing descriptions to a police sketch artist must be like – though much less "make his eyes more sinister" and more "let's make the coffee table slightly larger." Catch a peek at it below (just click each image to enlarge it) or hit up your local Barnes & Noble or home improvement store (yup, they sell magazines) to see the whole she-bang.
Plus, if you want your guy vs. girl dilemma answered in the next issue – submit your question as a comment right here on this post for a chance to be picked by our editor for our next column (linking to a "before" pic on a site like flickr is welcome but not required). Heck, your space might even be the room we get to go all pro-illustration on again. Fun, fun, fun.

Is there anything you guys can't do? I can't wait to have a home of our own one day, and when I do I hope we're as fun and creative as you guys!
That's quite ironic. I stooped by the Home Depot yesterday and picked up that exact magazine. When I got to that page and saw your names, I chuckled. It's a great article.
I actually have a male/female question that I was wanting to ask you guys anyway. I love your striped bathroom, and I've been seeing stripes a lot of places. I've love to stripe a room in my house, but my husband says no. He doesn't want to have to repaint over it or have to un-personalize it when we move out. Here's the thing: when we bought our house, it was all the personalization of the previous owners that caught my attention. They didn't paint any of their walls back to white. I loved the personality. The other thing is that we're not planning on moving anytime in the next at least 10 years.
YEA!!! I am heading to the store to buy it this afternoon!
We just moved into a new apartment that is completely different in color and architectural style from anywhere we've lived before. So we've decided to take a new route in decor and while we've both been watching ungodly hours of HGTV, when we head to the store he comments on this being a "no" because its not the exact same shade as the wall/floor/whatever. Meanwhile, he doesn't trust my opinion because I used to be the classic Decorator's Daughter. (You know how the preachers son is the most unruly? Yeah, decorators daughter had green carpet, pink walls, and a blue ceiling as soon as I was allowed to pick my own stuff.) Do either of you have an idea as to how I get him to apply what he sees on TV to our rooms?!
I was excited to see you had a two page spread! My boyfriend gets this mag in the mail and he now brings it over so I can look through it first. Great job!
I love that you include Burger in all of your press pictures!! We have a Chiwini (dachshund/chihuahua mix) and she reminds us of Burger!
I love it when you guys go glossy! You always have such simple, easy ideas that totally work. Sweet.
I think you meant to say "to see the whole he/she-bang". haha. Good magazine spread!
Fabulous! Congratulations, I will look for it!! Janell
I have a guy/girl dilemma as well. We are newlyweds and bought a house last fall. We love our house but our kitchen needs some work. It is seriously stuck in the 70s and not in a good way. Here's a glimpse of it:
It is a long, narrow galley style kitchen with a pantry on one end. The other end is open to the back door and part of the den. Here's where the problem comes in. We know we're going to update it – new tile, paint the cabinets, new counters, etc.
He'd like to do stainless everything, very sleek and modern (think granite, clean lines) and I'm more of a country farmhouse kind of gal (white farm sink, painted cabinets, wood floors).
The other thing is we're opening a wall to the den and making it a "bar" by keeping the existing cabinets and putting stools on the other side. I want to make this flow with the rest of our house. He wants to put pub style lights and make it look like a true bar. Again – we're in need of some his/hers compromise in a serious way!
Saw this spread just last week and had to smile. You guys are doing such a great job! Plus, I love that you include Burger in all that you do.
Take care!
Congrats on another awesome column! Bonus: that DIY mag cover has me totally pumped for spring.
Love this magazine! I'm a subscriber and I saw your column :) Very nice. The caning pattern on the cover has me swooning.
I know! I got my issue and saw both of you and thought "I know them!!" Of course, I don't, but I feel that I do through your blog. You give great answers!!
YAY! So exciting! AND YES, we would love help solving our girl vs. boy issues. We have a besroom we can NOT decide what to do with. So it just sits there. It's actually our master bedroom. My husband is very modern and love clean edges. I am more junk market/euro style. We can;t agree on anything! We started a blog (www.joeyandlana.com) and it's kinda turned into a journal of how we can't get through a room! So, yes, help is loved!
I picked it up over lunch and read it. Great article and the issue is awesome as well! Love the section on the wall decals. Congrats on the column! Very cool!
That's so cool! I'll have to grab a copy next time I see one on the stands.
Yay! I actually finally got my Subscription to DIY Magazine, so call me a regular reader! Good article!
My husband and I are close to buying our first home and have been discussing furniture. We'll make most of what we have work, but he is insisting that he NEEDS a recliner. I loathe most recliners, but I also realize that I can't have complete control over every piece of furniture that we own. Any suggestions on a recliner that will make him comfortable and happy, but will also look nice in a TV/media type room?
Great article!! I love the do it yourself magazine I just wish it would come out more frequently. I have a boy vs. girl issue that has made our small cape cod even smaller. Like most cape cods we have just one bedroom upstairs. Its technically considered to be a master bedroom due to the larger size and the bigger closest compared to the bedroom downstairs. It has better lighting and a nicer view than our bedroom downstairs too but my husband refuses to move upstairs because there is a dormer window and the ceiling is sloped in on both sides of the room. It's still bigger than our room downstairs but my husband doesn't think that there is a good way to utilize the space and still be able to not hit his head on the sloped ceiling. So sadly the room sits empty while I dream of waking up to the sunshine in my face and birds chirping while in reality I wake up to the sound of the garbage truck stopping in front of our house at 4 a.m.
What fun! I loved reading your tips!
Actually I just recieved my copy today in the mail. I bought a supscription because of you highlighting the mag in your blog
How awesome! Congrats!
What's wrong with a Red Sox shrine?!?!?!

The Age of Reagan: The Fall of the Old Liberal Order, 1964-1980
Three Rivers Press, 2009 - History - 811 pages
The Age of Reagan brings to life the tumultuous decade and a half that preceded Ronald Reagan's ascent to the White House. Based on scores of interviews and years of research, Steven F. Hayward takes us on an engrossing journey through the most politically divisive years the United States has had to endure since the decade before the Civil War. Overseas, we were embroiled in a war we couldn't win; at home our streets had become battlefields; and in Washington, the old liberal order was collapsing under the weight of a long string of failed policies. "It seemed that an era of American optimism and progress had come to a close," Hayward writes. "The concatenation of Vietnam, Watergate, the recurrent energy crisis, the swooning economy, the increasingly disorderly world scene, and the failed presidencies associated with these events robbed Americans of their native optimism for the future." Meanwhile, from out of the West arose a new conservative movement led by Ronald Reagan, a one-time Hollywood actor whose speech in 1964 in support of the doomed candidacy of Barry Goldwater not only electrified a national television audience but also created a political star who would change the course of history. With meticulous detail, Hayward captures an America at war with itself--and an era whose reverberations we feel to this very day. He brings new insight into the profound failure of Lyndon Johnson's Great Society, the oddly liberal nature of Richard Nixon's administration, the significance of Reagan's years as California's governor, and the sudden-death drama of his near defeat of Gerald Ford in the 1976 Republican primary, the listlessness of Jimmy Carter's leadership, and the political earthquake that was Reagan's victorious presidential campaign in 1980. Provocative, authoritative, and majestic in scope, The Age of Reagan is an unforgettable account of the rebirth and triumph of the American spirit.--Publisher description.

Review: The Age of Reagan: The Conservative Counterrevolution: 1980-1989User Review - Joel Manuel - Goodreads
An excellent overview of Reagan's two terms in office. It has 650 pages of text, but flows rather quickly due to Hayward's writing style. It is admittedly pro-Republican in stance, but Hayward doesn't shy away from exposing Reagan's faults and failures. Read full review
Review: The Age of Reagan: The Conservative Counterrevolution: 1980-1989User Review - Heather Vinson - Goodreads
A whopper of a 650 page propaganda machine for the Reagan years. Hayward goes into immense detail to recall what everyone in the room was saying, except for the opposition. Read full review
