Today I was flipping through old journals, and given the discussions we've been having lately in devos I thought it would be a good one to share.
Spoken Word: Live
Hey Guys– Check this out!
The Physicality of Beauty
In the last few years there has been a strong resistance against women portrayed in the media. People rightfully complain that women are sexualized and oppressed with an unrealistic standard of beauty and activists have aimed to instill realistic views of beauty and a higher self-esteem in young women. I fully affirm their intentions and it is important for people to have a healthy view of themselves and others, but the typical model used by such individuals may not be as helpful as they think.
When faced with mainstream views of beauty people often claim, " that these standards are unrealistic" (rightly so) and "that everybody is beautiful in their own way." Fair enough—I completely agree. What I do not agree with is how these two ideas are then implemented in culture. The next step from individuals who are anti-media (as far as views of beauty in the strictly physical sense are concerned) is to affirm beautiful qualities in other people. These movements come in the form of "imperfectly perfect" tags or "#flawless", where people affirm their "imperfections" and proclaim that they are valuable and beautiful in spite (and in some cases because) of them.
These movements are not problematic because they motivate people to appreciate themselves, rather they are problematic because they affirm the concept that in some form or another ones physical appearance and how one feels about their physical appearance affects one's value. A person in these forums may say something along the lines of, " I have scars on my knees #flawless," but what they really mean is that the physical scars on ones knees may seem like a flaw, but really they are an asset to my perceived perfection or "flawless-ness". This perfection does not refer to ones physicality necessarily, but to one's very being, their immateriality (personality) included. And may I say that although this is very romantic in nature, we cannot hold physical appearance so close to our value (even positively), because it is just not realistic. Sometimes we are ugly and that needs to be OK.
Ah. Ugly, it is such an "ugly" word. You probably cringed when I said it and if I called myself ugly you would run to my rescue affirming that it were not true. The question though is why? Probably because you are afraid that if I call myself "ugly" then I will think of myself "less than" or "not equal to" others, and this is the notion that we need to kill if we want individuals with a strong self-concept. It is absolutely OK to not be beautiful, in the physical sense of the word. We need to have the self-confidence to admit that sometimes we are ugly (also in the physical sense of the word). When your playing sports, sleeping, crying, eating with your mouth open, wearing those plum pants you might be ugly. That is fine. It is okay. Human beings are sometimes beautiful and sometimes gross, and there is nothing surreal about that fact.
If we want to raise young men and women who have strong self-esteem do not teach them to add transcendent notions of goodness to their arbitrary physical qualities. Because in all reality, one day their skin will wrinkle and their hair will go drab and all they will have to cling onto is the catch phrase that "they are beautiful, if only they choose to see it." And in the romantic sense that might be true, but it is still an insufficient foundation to build one's sense of worth. Instead teach them that some days they will be incredibly striking, and other days will be a little rough—but what they should put their faith in is not the physical attributes of their body, but the mind inside it. Because whether or not the corporeal image is attractive, the mind shall always be enticing.. A person who knows that they themselves and those around them are valuable, both when they are physically striking and when they are rough around the edges is a person who has mastered the art of confidence and has shed off shallow notions of love.
Glory to the Father
It's been a long time since I've blogged.
I wish there were reasons for this, but honestly one, I've been busy and two, I've been learning. The last two years I've learned so much from God and I wasn't ready to share this information because I was still processing it. And although none of us stop learning, I think I'm at a better stage to share my growth now than before.
I've come a long way. Sometimes I look back at my old posts and cringe– I think ugh… I can't believe I wrote that or I can't believe I thought that! My views have evolved so greatly and it's not that I'm not still a firm Christian– I am— but my understanding of God has deepened exponentially.
At one point I worried about money, love, marriage and "sin-management", but can I tell you guys something? After a long course of lessons from God I realized this— that nothing but the Love of God carries us. Nothing else. I've come to realize all acts, beliefs and theories must stem from this understanding that God loves us so deeply and His love truly is unconditional.
I lived with a lot of pain, shame and abuse I hurt regularly on the inside and I craved for attention from others. On one hand I had all these unhealthy tendencies on the other hand I had a desire to do good. So when I did bad— I had an unhealthy way of "punishing myself" for my wrongs. But God doesn't look at us in terms of "good and bad". He looks at us as broken and He spends time carefully knitting out lives back together. We LITERALLY don't need to worry about anything– we must only continuously submit to the Holy Spirit and take experiences as we go.
I know this article is a bit nuance and not necessarily practical— but the lessons I've learned from resting in God's embrace are astronomical. I suggest that you take the daring step to believe in His scandalous love and see how it transforms you too!
Celiabacy: A Message to Christian Singles
A few weekends ago I went hiking with some of my friends. I'm back from College now, and I haven't seen these guys for almost a year. It is safe to say that we all had a wonderful reunion.
As we were catching up one of my friends announced that he was thinking about converting to Catholicism. We all found this incredibly interesting and started asking him questions as to why. One of the things he said was, " When I went to Catholic bible studies I was amazed. There were guys my age, 21, 22, who were giving their lives to become priests– to live a life of celiabacy– and they were happy! My friend continued to explain the other points, but I got caught on this one statement. Celiabacy brought these boys joy and I began to wonder, do I find joy in my celiabacy/chastity?
If I'm going to provide an honest answer I will say up until now, no. I didn't. I always spent my time frequently praying for my husband, imagining my husband and anticipating married life. I didn't want the gift of singleness! I wanted to get married and have a man of my own– and although I've sustained my purity I never cherished it.
"… there were guys my age, 21, 22, who were giving their lives to become priests– to live a life of celiabacy– and they were happy!"
How odd this statement was to me. Men finding happiness in purity? It's not that I didn't believe it, I did, but I couldn't get over how it violently confronted my own wishes– and then of course I was moved to repentance. You see we can so easily make love and sex an idol in our own minds, but it ought not to be. The thing about the gospel is that asides from Christ you virtually are not in ultimate need of any other indulgence. You live for Him, you die for Him– you do everything for Him and when you have sex or abstain from it– yes, you also do it for HIm. You do it in worship and today that thought captivates m and I am proud of my chastity — however counter-cultural that may be. I'm proud that my self- control brings God glory and I'm proud that because of this I'm able to understand His spirit and preserve my love for Him– not His love for me— but my love for Him.
You see, whether you've always practiced absitence or you've made a new commitment to it, the truth is that the act of absitence itself is a living sacrafice we make to our God. It is an image of self-control and divine commitment and for that we should be happy.
So if you're single, yes, go pray for your future spouse that is a good thing, but also thank God for your singleness, your joy in Christ and the opportunity for worship, because that is the present and we do not wait until the future to express joy for our gifts.

Rewriting our Stories
At one point or another, you and I are going to feel the weight of our stories. The dark moments in our life will seem heavy as we ponder things we've done or things that have been done to us. Perhaps you're thinking about those moments right now.
It is the devils work to condemn you with the past, it is his job to fill you with hopelessness but can I tell you that the story he brings up is no longer yours?
When Jesus died on the cross He was making a new narrative for humankind. A narrative that did not need to end in death but rather one that could be celebrated in the presence of God. When He died He took your old narrative and he plunged it in death, a direction it was already headed and when He rose again He gave you and I a new beginning. A new start and a new story.
The world wants you to think that you cannot be made new as the pages of your book are darkened with splotches of ink. But what is darkened pigment to the creator of light?
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. – Galatians 2:20
Identifying the Counterfeit
I've heard it said time and time again. "Joel Osteen, that guy is a false prophet", "He teaches prosperity instead of the true gospel" or "he's not concerned with heavenly things and only leads his congregation to trust in earthly wealth."
And on and on it goes…
And you know, I'm not necessarily in disagreement with these individuals. I've heard Osteen and I know that he has a church that predominately focuses on self-fulfillment rather than self-denial, but to complain about Osteen's ministry (or anyone's ministry for that matter) is to miss what they are doing.
Sure, Osteen focuses on self-fulfillment, but the more important fact is that he is successful. He has the biggest church in the United States, his message touches people. Of course we can argue that his message is the "wrong" message– but we are still missing the point. The fact that Osteen's self-help regime resonates with the masses is because the masses feel like they need help.
There are thousands of individuals out there who feel like they are defeated, unworthy and unhappy and Osteen attracts them. Why? Because Osteen affirms them." You are beautiful", "You are made in God's image", "God is not done using you," "God does not define you by your past and you ought to be excited about your future". He says all these things. Now, if you were a defeated individual would these words not season your wounds with optimism? Of course they would. They would give you security, hope and perhaps even an opportunity for vulnerability. It would feel nice.
Here is the thing, like the Apostle Paul with the Corinthians (1 Corinithians 3:2) Osteen is feeding these defeated individuals milk as they are too weak to swallow the solid food of the gospel. His failure is that he does not lead his congregation to the solid food and many of them may not encounter the marvelous richness in the Cross of Christ. But those of us who are swallowing solid food can also fail. We can become guilty of criticizing others for taking baby bites. We can unjustly condemn them for not being a Christian with sound doctrine without crediting the fact the God is not done with them… as He is not done with you.
The thing is this, God will always reveal Himself to those who are seeking Him. Always. And He will always work on the hearts, souls, minds and strengths of His children, that we may worship Him as wholesomely as possible, but this sanctification process is a life-long journey and its one that must be nurtured with love— love from the Father and from ones' brothers and sisters– that's our job. Our job is too love one another as God loved us and when you love someone unconditionally you are not only sharing the gospel– you are living it.
So– Osteen preaches an unfulfilling Gospel— so what? God will speak to Him without you. Go out there and love fiercely and worship wholeheartedly so that when people who are seeking come to you, they experience the love of the Father and witness the life of the disciple, so they may too be directed to Christ himself.
The world knows of too many insincerities . Go out and live the true Gospel and the counterfeit will be made obvious.

I was having battery draining problems with my stock MK2 4.3 rooted. I had seen several forums with users complaining about the same thing. Long story short, I had messed up my phone trying to mod it and had to Odin a stock ROM. I Odin'd stock MJA, OTA updated to MK2 and re-rooted. The unexpected benefit to this was I how have outstanding battery life. I have absolutely no idea why this helped, but I figured I would share it so that it might help others.

text: We must refrain from tribalism at this moment. Our first instinct should not be to protect our tribe. When you want to say the shooter today wasn't a real atheist, or you want to minimize or shrug away his connection to atheism, remember all the times you ridiculed "no true Christian/Muslim" arguments, and don't make the same mistake. Let us simply condemn the attacks, and expresses solidarity, rather than attempt to defend our tribe instinctively. We expect Muslims and other religious people (rightly so) to look at their community critically and do not let it fester hatred. We have the same responsibility towards them and the humanity. We need to be critical of ourselves, be diligent of the possibilities of hatred and bigotry within our own ranks, and if we're not, we will lose all moral legitimacy when we expect religious people to do so.

I have no problem with using leather, I eat meat (although I buy organic and grassfed) , I have no problems with sustenance hunting - but I do have issues with trophy hunting or sport killing.
And how do you think having someone do that to your body after you're dead would affect other people?
(Yes I think what happens for funerals is completely different. I think funerals are for the living not for the dead - it's a time set aside for people to come together to say goodbye.)
Doing things like shows lack of empathy, and is I believe is disrespectful to life.
I wish I could mod you up.
I wish I had mod points.
I definitely agree that we should do massive researching into phages. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bacteriophage
problem is that big pharma won't do much with phages because they're naturally occurring which i think means no patents - so as soon as one has FDA approval, anyone can produce it,
I wish the government should give out grants to research phages - but big pharma would cry "unfair"
The problem isn't using antibiotics to fight bacterial infections.
The problem is incorrectly using antibiotics, much of which comes from IGNORANCE and POVERTY
1) Ignorance: lack of education on how antibiotics work, and a frightening number of people stop taking the antibiotics as soon as they start feeling better - VERY BAD IDEA!
2) Poverty: medicines are expensive, and so people who are tight on money will "share" drugs, with other people to save on costs. This goes hand in hand with ignorance about how the drugs work.
The answer to this (and many other problems) is universal education and healthcare.
Why don't we put explosives in these things with different conditions on detonation (lack of signal for a certain amount of time, receipt of encrypted detonation signal, unauthorized opening of the drone, etc)?
uh... there is nothing wrong with acting like a girl
so i guess explaining why the 'n' word is bad makes someone a racist too...
yea, it _can_ mean a scared cat - but I don't know if that's what most people think of when they hear it.
When I was a kid, if someone was called a 'pussy' it meant that they were a boy acting like a girl, and that acting like a girl was bad. (girls were rarely called pussies)
I should have said, "Stop speaking like a misogynist"
Stop being a misogynist.
Simplicity does not precede complexity, but follows it.

please help me identify this chair
Hi, Please help me identify this chair. I know my mother bought it at an auction in Ontario, Canada during the 1960's. She always called it the prayer chair because she said that you knelt on the seat and put your hands through the holes to pray, but I am thinking that she made that up as it certainly does not look like any of the prayer chairs I have seen on the internet. It has absolutely no identifying markings, stamps or labels.
Any tips, leads or links would be greatly appreciated.
Here is a link that might be useful: mystery chair photo share
Period: Arts & Crafts era, 1906-1925.
Form: hall chair; uncomfortable chairs with tall backs, usually very stylized. Placed in the entry hall of a house in pairs flanking either a doorway, a pier mirror of other piece of furniture. used for decor not for sitting.
The outline of the back looks like an owl, which was a very popular motif for A&C designers.
Looks like you could hang a suit jacket on the back ... I think it's a bedroom chair for a man.

Great for acne, great for taking off that last bit of dirt/makeup on your face, and it doesn't sting or irritate the skin. I know it says not to use on open pimples or whatever, but I've found that it actually makes them dry up and shrink the next day after applying. The whole bottle lasted me a year and I used it practically every day! However, when I repurchased I was surprised to find that the color has changed (it's now a light lilac color) and they've added a few more non-natural ingredients. I haven't used the new formula for long enough to confidently say if it's negatively affected my skin.

Well, I never give anything a holy grail status, but I must say... This is a game changer for me. By the end of my senior year of college, my skin went through a horrible change where I was breaking out severely and had never seen it in such a bad state. All of my previously tried and true products (salicylic acid, clindamycin phosphate, and sufacetamide) did nothing to alleviate the symptoms, and perhaps even made them worse. Now not only did I have a lot of active breakouts, but I also had deep and dark scarring. I became so self conscious about my skin and was worried it would never go back to a presentable state. I randomly picked this up on a whim since I had heard glycolic acid was great for hyperpigmentation, and the other ones I had tried broke me out (Alpha Hydrox Enhanced Lotion 10%). Now let me just say, this stuff definitely BURNED when I initially started using it, to the point where I was almost discouraged from continuing. My skin became so sensitive and dry that whenever I would start sweating, my face would actually start itching and become extremely uncomfortable. But within two weeks I started noticing that my acne scars were fading away significantly, and that a lot of the current breakouts I was suffering with were reduced. I've never seen such AMAZING results from a single product, and while my skin is definitely far from perfect now, I'm actually shocked at how much it's improved. However, it's also important to note that the toner has also totally changed the texture/nature of my skin. My once extremely oily face is now very dry, sensitive, and much more prone to flakiness (which now has me on the hunt for the perfect moisturizer), but I'm willing to deal with all of this as I found something that has worked wonders on me. If you've been suffering through terrible bouts of acne and feel like you've tried a lot of things to no avail, give this a try for at least a week or two. I can't recommend this enough!

Love! My mom says every woman has a "skincare line" meaning, their are certain brands that just work better than others for your skin (my mom's is Clinique, my yiayia's is Lancome
) and after noticing the increased dryness in my cheeks and the fine lines around my eyes become more apparent, I thought it was about time to step up my skin game and find my skincare line. After browsing around a couple of sites and taking stock of what I was currently using, I settled on Mario Badescu and bought this along with the Cleansing Milk with Carnation & Rice Oil Cleanser and the Oil-Free SPF Moisturizer and think I've found my skincare line.
Skin Type: Combo-Dry, Sensitive & Acne-prone, with the occasional cystic breakout.
Starting Date: Nov. 1st 2014
Pros: Definitely helps keep skin feeling and looking bright and clean, I use this morning and night and have seen an improvement in my skin, not only pore size and visibility, but dryness decreased, fine-lines less visible, pigmentation slowly fading and my favorite - NO ANIMAL TESTING!!
Cons: Kind-of stings but nothing that lasts more than a few seconds, doesn't prevent acne but doesn't encouraging it either.

Why does this product have artificial coloring? :( anyway, I tried this product to help with my blackhead ridden nose. (I currently use ocm, acv toner, & urban decay bb cream) I tried this toner at the store, and it cleared my nose instantly! I bought it! Finally a cure, until later that day I looked at my nose and saw it make all the tiny blackhead "holes" bleed.... My nose was scabbed!!! What the heck.... My nose was so rough, it hurt, and it took a few days to heal. What a disappointment!

Not suitable for my sensitive skin. While it dried up all of the blackheads on my nose, it also left it red and raw. I also noticed a few unusual bumps popped up when I began using this.

I'm having some positive results with a few of Mario Badescu's products throughout the years. This is the newest product that I picked up from the brand. I think this particular product is a game changer for me. I have adult mild to on rare occasions moderate and severe bouts of hormonal acne. I can have extremely clear skin to having about 20 blemishes all at once. It comes and goes in waves. Thankfully, the more severe bouts are very rare. Nothing seems to really work (topical or oral) during those very bad bouts. I also have very oily skin that is prone to clogs. Experiencing with several toners, I've realized that even though my skin is oily, it can't handle witch hazel or large amounts of alcohol. Those two ingredients seem to make my skin worse. Lost at sea, I didn't really know where else to turn? Toners either have witch hazel or alcohol or irritating oils like peppermint and eucalytpus. After researching online, I came to this glycolic acid toner. This is what my skin likes! It doesn't burn. It effectively lifts up dead skin and gives an added boost in cleansing the skin. It has a soothing soft scent. It doesn't dry out my skin nor does it leave a greasy residue behind. It doesn't cause breakouts. It is everything I was looking for in a toner! HOWEVER, with everything else in life, I never read the instructions. I made the first mistake of applying this to active acne and it caused my skin to be red and angry but it didn't create more acne, it just basically pissed off the existing acne. So, make sure you use this on clear days or avoid areas where there is active acne. I find that this toner really brings life to my skin. It is a gentle chemical exfoliator and provides such a glow to the skin. It is gentle enough to use daily. Simpe good ingredients. Nothing in here will irritate your skin. Ingredients: Deionized Water (Aqua),Aloe Vera (Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice) Gel,Grapefruit (Citrus Grandis Fruit) Extract, Glycolic Acid. Also, very affordable for a clinical type brand. 8oz bottle is $18.00.

My son had mild to moderate acne on his forehead which started when he was about twelve. He is fourteen now. He has used over the counter products such as mario badescu drying lotion andThursday Plantation tea tree acne medicated get as well as prescription meds like Duac and Aczone. NOTHING WORKed. 5 months ago I bought this glycolic acid toner for him. What worked for him was popping his whiteheads and using this toner in the evening on his nose and forehead after his shower. It has cleared up his acne and acne scars 100%. I really love, love, love , love this product because it continues to keep him clear.

I was hesitant about buying this toner at first. Purely because 1) I hardly EVER used to spend decent money on skincare, limited to a cheap drugstore facial cleanser and occasionally, a moisturizer that probably did more harm than good, and 2) I was ignorant enough to think that I could get away with that. When really, a lot of the problems that I had with my skin (blemishes, pigmentation, generally bad skin texture) that I thought would never go away, could have been avoided this whole time by just finding the right product.
I had some birthday money to burn in the beautiful and pristine skincare section at Myer, and spoke to a nice shop girl who pointed me in the direction of some products that would actually help me. One of them being the Mario Badescu Glycolic Acid toner.
I'd never even really understood the need for toners before I used this one because every other toner I had used had just stung, and dried out my skin until its texture resembled lizard scales. But I'm glad I bought it, because I truly believe this product is a miracle!!
The first time I used it it stung a little, but that was probably because I had such a build up of dead skin cells. But after only a couple of weeks using it 1-2 times a day, my skin feels dramatically improved. It's actually amazing! The texture of my skin is softer and smoother than its ever been before, and my acne/blemishes are quickly disappearing. My freckles and red marks are also fading as well! Also the toner eating away all the dead skin allows for other products, like the new moisturizer I have been using, Meishoku's Organic Rose Skin Conditioning Gel (which I also highly recommend) to penetrate my skin and actually perform the way they're sposed to. So my skin is able to feel 100% hydrated!
I like the packaging as well. The little lift up nozzle is perfect for pouring the right amount onto a cotton pad.
This product receives a 5/5!

This is a total HG product for me. It has made my life better in so many ways. I have skin that is extremely oily and sensitive. It cannot tolerate salicylic acid or lactic acid (both of which give me a hideous rash) but for some reason, it's fine with glycolic. This toner is alcohol-free as well, which is even better.
The first time I used this, I felt it work instantly. It gave my skin this burning tingle, which I knew was not synthetically manufactured by menthol or alcohol. I let the toner dry down for a moment (maybe 30 seconds) and then spritzed my face with rose water (as is my regular routine). Then I applied my moisturizer and settled in with a book. After a few hours, I began to notice that my face felt remarkably different from how it usually feels at that point in the night. It felt CLEAN and soft and not greasy. When I woke up in the morning, my face (which is usually an oily mess by morning) was matte and dry (in a good way) and not oily AT ALL! I was shocked, and began to wonder if the toner had dried my skin out. But it felt perfectly comfortable and, in fact, very soft. I then realized that that wasn't the feeling of dried-out skin; that was the feeling of my moisturizer ACTUALLY PENETRATING MY SKIN for the first time now that the glycolic acid had broken down that disgusting top layer of dead skin sitting on my face. Because of this wonderful toner, my skin was FINALLY able to drink up the moisture it needed.
I also noticed that after my very first use of the product, my blackheads were GONE (GONE! COMPLETELY GONE! Effects as good as sitting there with a blackhead extractor for 20 minutes, but minus all the squeezing and redness and damage to my pores!) and my skin no longer gets oily throughout the day. It just feels silky, sheer, matte, perfect. It is also clearing up my stubborn acne scars, making my pores appear smaller, making my face look smooth and healthy and radiant I just love this toner so much. Amazing ingredients with no harsh fillers, incredible results THIS is the fountain of youth!!!!!!!!

Lowes white tile
I really hate making decisions! I am down to white tile for my bathroom, but I can't decide between the off the rack white American Olean and the special order bright white. Does one look better with white tubs? Does the bright white make tubs look dingy? Or visa-versa?
Thanks for the advice!
We used the Lowes American Olean white subway with Kohler Villager tubs in our new build. I think it looks great and we saved a ton of money. We also used the Lowes black pencil liner to add some tile detail. Using the cheaper tiles but still having a custom look made this one of our best money-saving decisions.
Thank you very much for your answer. We are going with a Sterling (made by Kohler) tub also, and after a visit to the store we found out the arctic ice white just really looks bad with the tub we picked out! No where near the same color! So, we are going with the American Olean white tile.
I do have one more question though. What color paint did you use for trim? Their ultra white and white don't really match the tile. Don't I want the colors to kind of blend?
I've never done a room with this much white before, I'm very confused!
We also used the same trim paint throughout the house, without regard for the tile color. We used BM satin impervo in the untinted base color. It's a fairly bright, crisp white.
Thrilledtobuild, would you be so kind and post a photo? I would really like to see your tile with the Lowes black pencil line. Thats the pencil liner tile we decided to use for our kitchen and it would be great to actually see it installed.

It's a big upgrade over last year's Nexus 7 which already was brilliant. The new Nexus 7-incher is thinner, lighter and has a narrower bezel, making it more comfortable to hold.
Most importantly for geeks, though, it is more powerful. The 2013 Nexus 7 swaps the Nvidia Tegra chip from last year with a shiny new Qualcomm Snapdragon, and the difference is massive. Android Police was the first to run the cross-platform Geekbench test o the Nexus 7 and compare the results against those of last year's tablet. The difference is staggering. We'll leave the images speak for themselves.
Here is how much faster the 2013 Nexus 7 is against the 2012 Nexus 7

Hairy crab season is once again sweeping Shanghai's diners into a frenzy, with the bristly crustaceans popping up on street corners, in streetside wet markets and, most importantly, on dinner plates.

"Unique Voices," at the Auditorium Theatre, adds three strong contemporary pieces to the Joffrey rep in a program that strikes a gratifying balance between classicism and risk. The curtain opens on Stanton Welch's "Maninyas"—a small ensemble piece that moves from strong, sculptural shapes to whirling abandon as it traces the path of growing emotional intimacy. The second section features a series of challenging lifts that hover in the protracted silence between chords in Ross Edwards' "Maninyas Concerto for Violin and Orchestra." Lighting by Lisa Pinkham ripples over the women's ankle-length dresses and massive "veils" hanging upstage. The fabrics in both costume and set are active characters in Welch's piece. As dancers burst into dervish spins and restless pony steps in the third movement, shafts of light descend on them from above and the veils fall. Read the rest of this entry »
The steady expansion of the performing arts in Chicago continues its marvelous pace, with more and better theater, dance, comedy and opera gracing more and better stages each passing year. The upward progression is so steady that epic undertakings—a new campus at Steppenwolf, a bigger chunk of Navy Pier for Chicago Shakes—seem almost business as usual these days. And that is a marvelous thing. This year we again celebrate the lesser-sung heroes offstage who deal with the less glamorous things like building those new stages, and paying those expanding payrolls without which the stars would have nowhere to shine.
Tragedy has been central to theater since the ancient Greeks first staged it, but the last year has brought a disproportionate volume of real-life tragedy to our community. No doubt, the expanding and maturing performing arts universe means that more members of its community will pass on each year, but the number of those struck down long before their expected hour was overwhelming these last twelve months and struck every corner of performing arts, from theater, to dance, to comedy, to opera. Molly Glynn, Jason Chin, Eric Eatherly, Bernie Yvon, Johan Engels, Julia Neary—and others we've unintentionally overlooked—we dim our collective marquee for you. (Brian Hieggelke)

The Joffrey presents five programs throughout their season, showing works by about a dozen leading choreographers of past and present, but there's one show that keeps the lights on: twenty-four performances of "The Nutcracker" account for the bulk of Joffrey ticket sales, pulling non-regular dance attendees (and their visitors) into the Auditorium Theatre for a holiday tradition and, in many ways, helping to fund the rest of programming. Robert Joffrey's vision of the Christmastime confection is a shimmering spectacle, heightened by the additions of the two-story Mother Ginger puppet by Kermit Love and an ensemble of more than one-hundred young dancers.

To whet audience appetites for the fall season, the Joffrey presents a special one-weekend amuse of short narrative ballets. Two pieces are from the Joffrey rep: Antony Tudor's 1936 "Lilac Garden," a moonlit tale of quiet longing set in the Edwardian era, and George Balanchine's take on the parable of the Prodigal Son, set to the music of Prokofiev. The company will also premiere "RAkU," by San Francisco Ballet's resident choreographer Yuri Possokhov, and inspired by the true story of a Buddhist monk who burned down the Kyoto Temple of the Golden Pavilion.

Heart of the Movement: Dance for Life Dances For A CauseDance, Recommended Dance Shows No Comments »
In the early nineties, a dancer with the Joseph Holmes Dance Theatre named Keith Elliott was, like many artists of the time, losing friends and colleagues to complications caused by HIV/AIDS. "If you knew Keith, he was the kind of person who couldn't just not do anything about it," said Anthony Guerrero, the current producer of Dance For Life. "He was a dancer—he didn't have money—but he could put on a show." Elliott invited Chicago's dance community to participate in a fundraiser performance to fight HIV/AIDS and support artists in need. Four companies immediately got involved: the Joffrey Ballet, Hubbard Street, Giordano Dance and River North Dance, who have remained the partnering companies to this day. The first performance was held in 1992 to a sold-out house. Since then, Dance For Life has raised millions of dollars for HIV/AIDS prevention, care and education. Proceeds also go to The Dancers' Fund, an emergency fund extended artists, administrators, rehearsal pianists, anyone in the dance profession struggling with life-threatening or debilitating illness. The Dancers' Fund goes beyond medical treatment, covering rent, utilities, food. Last year's Dance For Life raised more than $200,000 alone. Read the rest of this entry »

Placing Shakespeare's plays in different historical contexts is a longstanding tradition for theater companies and filmmakers: modern dress and settings are used to both illustrate universality of themes and to make Elizabethan language a little less intimidating to contemporary audiences. Krzysztof Pastor, director of the Polish National Ballet, places the tale of the ill-fated young lovers across not one, but three time periods. In the case of ballet, iambic pentameter is no barrier to comprehension; Pastor uses moments in twentieth-century Europe to illustrate the power of politics to destroy individual lives. As in Shakespeare's play, the setting is Italy: Act I takes place in the 1930s, at the rise of Mussolini. Act II travels forward in time to the 1950s and the violent turmoil incited by the Red Brigades. The final act takes us to Berlusconi's Italy, a place of increasing wealth disparity and social unrest. Read the rest of this entry »
New Works, New Challenges: The Joffrey Ballet Tackles the ContemporaryDance, Recommended Dance Shows No Comments »
The Joffrey dancers are posed with new challenges this winter as the company presents a program of all twenty-first-century works, including a piece by a Chicagoan for the first time in a decade. Brock Clawson is an ex-Thodos dancer-turned-choreographer who has created work for Giordano Dance, the Eisenhower Dance Ensemble in Detroit and the Houston Metropolitan Dance Company. Last year he created a commission for the Milwaukee Ballet entitled "Crossing Ashland." The piece caught the attention of Ashley Wheater, the Joffrey's artistic director, and now the company's at work on Clawson's choreography, which is as informed by modern and contemporary vocabularies as it is by ballet. "Crossing Ashland" is a tender look at human connection and vulnerability; it spans the space from earth to sky, considering both the ground that claims us and the heavens we reach for. Dancers in street clothes walk, run, embrace behind other dancers in minimal costumes, who create visual amplification of our internal worlds. Read the rest of this entry »
The first images that spring to mind with The Nutcracker Ballet are usually lavish costumes, plentiful fake, glittering snow and a rousing sword fight between a wooden toy and a giant mouse—not necessarily explosive leaps or masterful ensemble staging. And, with well over 100 youth dancers, singers from five different children's choirs, a massive tree and a two-story Mother Ginger puppet, the Joffrey Ballet's version of the holiday classic doesn't disappoint for razzle-dazzle. But despite the parade of lavish sets and spectacular on-stage snowfalls, the real centerpiece of Robert Joffrey and Gerald Arpino's most-staged ballet is the dancing. Read the rest of this entry »
Deck the Sets: Chicago Stages Go Holiday Crazy-News etc., Christmas, Comedy, Dance, Holiday, Musicals, Performance, Theater No Comments »
By Zach Freeman
As any denizen of the theater who's been in this town for any amount of time knows, Chicago DOES theater. With more than 250 active theater companies and a constantly growing number of venues, if you can't find a good show to attend on any given night, you're just doing it wrong. And this holiday season Chicago is really throwing down the gauntlet of performance options with more than forty (yes, you read that right) holiday shows. And yes, almost all of them are Christmas-related. In fact, there are almost a dozen versions of "A Christmas Carol" alone.
But Chicago is a diverse city and our theater companies reflect that. We're not talking about several dozen versions of the same old stuff, we're talking about more than forty completely different takes on the holiday season. It's a lot for any one person to take in, so we thought we'd help you determine which show (or shows) you should be seeing over the next month or so to get yourself into the appropriate holiday mood (whatever that means for you).
We can't list them all, but here are twenty to get you started. Here we go… Read the rest of this entry »

The Joffrey calls upon all their considerable resources to stage massive, demanding works by three Russian greats. The centerpiece of the evening is the company's authoritative reconstruction of Nijinsky's legendary, riot-inducing "Le Sacre du Printemps," which still feels absolutely raw and primal even 100 years after its premiere. The rest of the program holds strong with Balanchine's "Allegro Brillante"—a sweeping full-company piece featuring bearishly difficult solo sections for the principal ballerina—and two works by Yuri Possokhov. "Bells" is a gorgeous half-hour work set to seven Rachmaninoff compositions that move sweetly through moods and images, and a real treat will be Possokhov's duet "Adagio," created expressly for the Joffrey's remarkable husband and wife team Temur Suluashvili and Victoria Jaiani.

Eliza Acton's Vegetable Mulligatawny
Eliza Acton is one of my favourite cookery writers and this is a recipe that I adapted from her cookery book, which was published in 1840.
Serves 8
|Oven temperatures and Conversions
|Click here for information
|There is no list of equipment specified for this recipe.
First, melt the butter in a large (6 pint/3.5 litre) saucepan, then add the onions and cook until they're a golden brown colour. Now place the cardamom, cumin, fennel and coriander seeds in a small frying pan to dry-roast - this will take 2-3 minutes. As soon as the seeds start to jump, tip them into a mortar and crush them finely, then add them to the onions. Now add the marrow or courgettes, potato and tomatoes. Season well, then let the vegetables cook gently, covered, until soft - about 20 minutes.
Next, when the vegetables have cooled a little, put them into a blender and reduce to a puree. You will need to do this in more than one batch, so a large bowl to put each batch in is helpful here. Then pour the puree back into the saucepan and stir in the cooked rice, together with the stock. Re-heat gently, cook for about 5 minutes more, then serve with some crisp croutons sprinkled in each bowl.

SANTA FE, N.M. (AP) — Democrats in New Mexico's congressional delegation are asking for more federal oversight of the state Human Services Department because it suspended Medicaid payments to 15 mental health providers last year.
Sens. Tom Udall and Martin Heinrich and Reps. Michelle Lujan Grisham and Ben Ray Lujan made the request to U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Sylvia Burwell.
The state suspended payments because of fraud and overbilling allegations, and contracted with Arizona companies to take over management of most of the suspended providers.
The system changed in January as Medicaid managed care companies assumed responsibility for behavioral services and contracting with providers.
The congressional letter expressed concerns that services have been disrupted.
But Human Services spokesman Matt Kennicott said more people are receiving services since the transition to the Arizona providers.

pot size for mini?
A few days after Valentine's Day, I was at a local nursery and they had tiny mini rose bushes is 4" pots.. LOTS of them for 2$ each... I picked them them--finding ones, I thought were healthy--a deep red and a nice med. pink one.. I brought them home--sprayed, re potted and placed them in a sunny window-where they sat until Easter- then they were moved out side! Well, they had grown so much I just re potted them again in to 14" pots.. The blooms are only 1/2" long and look like prefect mini HT blooms.. Any idea how large of a pot they really need? Will these bushes grow to full size w/ tiny blooms? Should I go ahead and plant them in a bed somewhere?? Thank you for any suggestions, ideas, thoughts??
With yearly root pruning and top pruning, can miniatures be maintained in 1 gallon pots and rebloom?
Musaboru -- In California, the only roses you can keep healthy PERMANENTLY in 1-G pots would be Micro-Miniatures. Micro-Minis are pretty neat plants, though, and I think may soon be more available than in the past.
Your average "Miniature" rose can (as noted above) make a 6-ft. plant, tho the blooms remain relatively small. We killed our first Miniatures, long ago, because we did not understand that.
For a permanent situation, I'd really recommend a 14-inch pot as a MINIMUM. Larger = Better.
Note, this is in California. I have NOT grown roses in colder zones with a shorter growing season.

Dietary flexibility may have been an important factor, giving wolves and bears an edge over saber-toothed cats and cave lions, according to a new study led by researchers at the University of California, Santa Cruz.
A new study has once again demonstrated that our human ancestors had no qualms about eating every part of their prey, including the brains.
For three years, University of California, Santa Cruz researchers have been tracking mountain lions through the Santa Cruz Mountains to document how human development affects the predators' habits.
A recent study has shown that bottom-dwelling goosefish, also known as monkfish, prey on dovekies, a small Arctic seabird and the smallest member of the puffin family.
As lazy as they may come off on nature channels, male lions actually are hunters and are quite successful at it, according to a new study published in Animal Behavior.
In the southern Rift Valley of Kenya, the Maasai people, their livestock and a range of carnivores, including striped hyenas, spotted hyenas, lions and bat-eared foxes, are coexisting fairly happily according to a team of coupled human and natural systems researchers.
Bite force allows animals to properly ingest food, making jaw mechanics very important -- especially for predators.
Have you ever wondered why, and how, shoals of fish are comprised of fish of the same size?
Cichlid fish are more likely to accept immigrants into their group when they are under threat from predators and need reinforcements, new research shows.
Everyone needs to eat. But it's a dog-eat-dog world, and with the exception of the top predators, everyone also gets eaten. To cope with this vicious reality, a tiny insect that eats plants has learned to employ the plant's hairs for physical protection from its beetle predator.
