My aunt flew down from minosota to be there for my delivery and brought my Thymes Eucalyptus Body lotion as a little pre baby mommy wellness gift. Well, let me tell you! Between living in New York (stress), working in the hospital (stress) and adjusting to being a first time mommy (stress), 10 months later and every time I use it I feel calm.

Fresh and Arromatic
All Eucalyptus products are sensational. I have used all of them and they bring out such wonderful memories of a fresh spring summer fall or winter day. They are so wonderful that I savor them as if they were gold frankincense or myrrh....gifts for the gods!You can always give them to me too!
Lovely Gift
I purchased this lotion along with the lavender and gifted them to my mom as a surprised. She absolutely loved them both! The scent was so clean and pleasant! Loved it! I had to purchase one for myself after i purchased hers!
Fresh and clean
The scent is so fresh and clean and the texture is just right, not too light and not too oily
This fragrance is the perfect one for those hot summer nights!

Ross Detwiler faces Rodrigo Lopez tonight at Wrigley Field.
CHICAGO — It's another gorgeous day on the North Side, clear and cool with a nice breeze blowing in off Lake Michigan. There are few better places to spend a summer than Chicago, and I speak from experience having spent the summer of 1997 right here covering Jim Riggleman's Cubs as an intern at the now-defunct Daily Southtown.
Fresh off an impressive 3-1 victory last night, the Nationals look to make it three in a row when Ross Detwiler takes the mound for his third start of the season. The lefty has pitched pretty well when called upon this year, but he's yet to show he can pitch deep into a game. Perhaps tonight is the night we see him sustain it and reach the sixth or seventh inning.
It's the usual lineup for the Nats, aside from Jesus Flores behind the plate instead of Wilson Ramos (who is celebrating his 24th birthday). That means Jonny Gomes (who has homered the last two games) gets his fourth straight start in left field.
Check back for updates throughout…

I just wanted to crow about our young team:D Storen, 24 tomorrowClippard, 26HRod, 24Lannan, 26JZim, 25Strassburg, 23Ramos, 24Desmond, 25Espy, 24R Zim, 26(and Bryce, 18)That's a great core of a team that's all age 26 or less. (And, frankly, I forgot how young Lannan is)(I wonder how that compares to other teams)

On May 31 Riggleman decided to change Lannan's luck with the Phillies so he spelled his name LannEn on the lineup card and he won his first game against them.
- JaneB - Aug 10, 2011 at 9:09 PM
Wonk, a few months ago, when Lannan was in a stretch of NEVER winning against the Phillies, Riggleman posted the line up and spelled John's name will an E instea of an A.He won.We spell it with an E from now on.I am hoping that the N will help JaysoN break out firmly, noticeably and for the rest of his career.

On the season, right handed batters are hitting .333 against Rodrigo Lopez. Cubs are one of the best hitting teams vs LHP. So of course this will be a low scoring affair.

August 10, 2011 7:24 PM ____________________________He isn't that guy that pretends to be politically correct. He shows you what he really is. I would rather have that then a fake. Clearly there are some that will think he is just a big goof. To me, he is just a normal guy not pretending to be more than that. Kind of refreshing in this day and age of fake.
- FS - Aug 10, 2011 at 11:55 PM
Anon 7:34, I am yet to see a National who tries to be politically correct in the media or anything. They all pretty much say what is on their mind. I was just saying that I had an image of him in my mind, but he was different and possibly the reason for me not loving the video like everyone else.
- Wally - Aug 10, 2011 at 11:57 PM
He seemed a little nervous to me, which increased the goofiness factor. Kind of like when an actor or actress goes on Letterman and feels like they have to be zany. My reaction is closer to FS, in that it felt awkward at times.But what I find refreshing about Morse is that he doesn't mind showing that all of this is new to him, and he is enjoying it. So many pro athletes come off looking bothered and bored by all the attention (whether they are or not), that to see a guy letting his excitement show is fun.

And I found another reason why Livan is my hero, on top of it. I'm glad things are fixed again. I was starting to wonder if I was a complete computer incompetent.How fun Mark , to learn about your beginnings as a baseball writer. It must have been really cool for you when Riggleman arrived in town. Just like we forget, sometimes, that the players atr people, it's cool to get a glimpse of the person behind our favorite Insider.

I realized, when Werth got his dinger, that there wasn't a shred of a hint of an iota of "bout time" in my reaction. I guess that means I am now firmly in his camp. We will need a few more of those, of course.
- Nats Outsider - Aug 11, 2011 at 1:55 AM
Okay, Mark, I'll bite: Henry Rowengartner was a movie character about a Little League player who threw back a home run ball to home plate. The Cubs then sign him to be the youngest Major League player in history. The movies was called "Rookie of the Year," I think. Or something close to that anyway.

Mark Zuckerman: In 22 career starts, Ross Detwiler has lasted an average of 5.1 innings. That's got to improve, or else he's gonna be a reliever. _____________________Is that a new observation because this is nothing new. He paces himself as he can't ramp up his pitches because of arm stamina to try to pitch 5+ and you barely get 5. When you compare it to his relief appearances he is throwing an easy mid-90's with movement.Rizzo and staff seem to want him to be starter and the fanbase wants him to be a starter. Same results different month.

It really is laborious to post here compared to the Nationals Journal, having been driven there by the site being down. Mark couldn't even post a "gone fishin'" sign, either. I didn't know what was going on, but would love for this site to not require secret handshakes and manual refreshing.

Ray Knight just basically said the same thing as Mark and the Anon. In 22 starts, has gone 7 innings once, 6 innings twice. Ray says he lacks arm endurance.Wasn't this the same problem that Clippard had as a starter?Why do they keep jerking this kid around? He didn't do well this year in AAA as a starter. This is the Majors.He excelled in Spring Training when it was 3 inning assignments. For his 5 innings, it was alright. Nothing great. If Detwiler continues as a starter, he better learn how to bunt. He really hurt the team in the top of the 5th.
- Anonymous - Aug 11, 2011 at 3:32 AM
>>>Ross Detwiler falls to 3-11 with a 5.03 ERA in 22 career big-league starts.<<<Ugh. That's ugly.Ultimately, this game was lost with the performance the offense put up against Lopez. That was inexcusable.
- flynnie - Aug 11, 2011 at 11:47 AM
HRod was good now that he's back at sea level. We need to give Ross as much time as CMW. Flores is looking like his old self. Jason's home run was free and easy. He made a couple of nice catches in the outfield, even though he decided to slide on the game winner that Aaron Rowand would've caught. That wall wasn't ivy covered – it was concrete and at some point the pitcher is responsible for not putting his outfielders into career-threatening situations. I'm glad Jayson didn't go into the wall. I'd be wall-shy too.
- bups - Aug 11, 2011 at 8:27 PM
Has there been even one game this season when the Nats have gotten Zimmerman some runs? These guys are the hitless wonders but when Zimmerman pitches, the offense is totally disappears.

Vertigo: 2005/06
Manchester Stadium of Light.
14 June 2005
Manchester Stadium of Light.
I was very deeply asleep and miles away dreaming when a nostalgically familiar sound penetrated my consciousness and gave me a warm and fuzzy feeling. It was an air siren which sounded exactly like the noise a British Rail train used to make at speed, a low-high sort of 'Haaa-Pheeeep' sound which, unknown to me until this moment when I was climbing mount Kilimanjaro in my dream, has a powerful emotional nostalgic link to growing up in the north of England. As I continued toward the surface of consciousness, flipping through my mental Roladex to figure out where in the world I could be, it was a wonderful moment to remember that I was in Manchester and that really was a British Rail train (or whatever they are called now, after the unforgivable debacle of privatization.)
So, first gig in the UK. Never a small day on a U2 tour. I headed down to the stadium as soon as I could and was pleased to see all was well. The crew had worked flat out but most had managed a modicum of sleep last night so morale was high. The band did a lengthy sound check in order to get comfortable and run through a couple of new things including seeing how I Will Follow sounded coming out of Vertigo. We had a meeting in catering afterwards as Bono had watched a show tape this morning so had some comments. He was also full of praise for the production and for the crew which was most encouraging. I left with quite a lot of new things to try to get into the tonights show (or more to the point Smasher would have to try to get into the show) which was going to be tricky but not impossible, I thought. I had, however, completely forgotten that all this would have to be done whilst the two opening acts were on stage going for it at full tilt. Trying to hear a U2 song in your head whilst The Bravery or Snow Patrol as coming at you at a million decibels is a challenge even for the most musically inclined amongst us. We made it though, and as I type this its ten minutes to show time and Morrisey is singing 'Irish Blood, English Heart', stand by, were going in.

I was checking my old GBA pokemon games when I found out I started several new games and I don't remember doing it.
This will somewhat distract me til I get HG from Gamestop, or SS in the mail (Curse you Walmart!)
I so far in Firered have a bit of tough challenge, I'am only using Blastoise and Nidoking, they are both level 41. I'am currently in the Team Rocket hideout.
I just started a new game on Leaf Green, I've choosen Bulbasaur for my starter since I've always had a weak spot for grass type Pokemon. Have raised Bulbasaur to level 10.
And that is pretty much all I've done for today, seeing as I'm also playing Pokemon Pearl on my precious DS.
In dead disire and unwanted love and dread
The strings on my heart are starting to tug tighter
Moving and snapping through out my body pulling me up
Dragging me through the disgusting dirt and the mud

Hey there, just having fun playing Pokemon Black.
Mainly looking for charmander.
Just arrived in the Sevii Islands on my FireRed that I bought in a yardsale. It was used but at least I started at a good point. I'm especially glad I got there since I need several Pokemon for my National Dex in other games. I arrived on Four Island and I healed my team since I knew I had to head over to Icefall Cave to beat up Team Rocket and help Lorelei. I went through and encounter my first Johto Pokemon, a Swinub. Caught it planning to train it or leave it at the Daycare Center on the island. Got to the final chamber with Team Rocket cornering Lorelei. I fought one at a time and gained enough experience to level-up my Charizard, Lapras, and Scyther. After that was settled I trained in the cave and healed at the PC again.
My team at the end of the "mission" looked as follows:
-Charizard lv 75
-Lapras lv 45
-Scyther 53
-Raichu lv 56
-Vileplume lv 63
Defeated elite four, now training the hitmonchan I got from the dojo in Saffron city, he's good for breeding
Chuck's gym looks awesome in heart gold... hehe water slide :P
Just killed the Elite Four.
Charizard- lvl 63
Vileplume- lvl 58
Lapras- lvl 60
Aerodactyl- lvl 60
Kadabra- lvl 59
Gonna catch 60 pokemon (got 17 right now) so i can get the national dex and eventually trade my kadraba to evolve into an Alakazam
Just killed the Elite Four.

So, I've been wanting to do a monotype for a while, and I decided to restart Fire Red and go for my first monotype playthrough. I started my monotype career with an easy type, Water, and I just beat Blaine and caught Moltres. Next up is rescuing Lostelle, then capturing Articuno and Zapdos, to whom I am not looking forward, and then sweeping Giovanni's stupid Ground types. My team is all fully evolved, and currently looks like this:
Lapras (M) Lv. 40
Brave Nature, Trait: Shell Armor.
- Surf
- Body Slam
- Ice Beam
- Psychic
To be honest, Lapras has disappointed me so far, suffering a lot from rather bad attacks and especially sucking when hit by something like Thunder Wave. I just hope he'll do better soon, 'cause he'll be important against the Elite Four.
Omastar (M) Lv. 40
Calm Nature, Trait: Shell Armor.
- Mud Shot
- Spike Cannon
- Surf
- Bite
Even as an Omanyte, this guy was kicking Rocket butt. Although he had to be trained from level 5, he's been doing very well and I really like him so far. I think he might just become a powerhouse when I get something better than Spike Cannon. He didn't get as much playtime after his evolution though, which is bad.
Blastoise (M) Lv. 44
Quiet Nature, Trait: Torrent.
- Mega Punch
- Bite
- Surf
- Water Gun (LOLZ)
My starter, who can always be switched in against anything. Before I had Omastar, he was my Electrode counter, with those things hitting my other Pokemon hard with Spark and Blastoise being the only one that could actually take a few hits. I really do need something better than Water Gun. I was thinking about Earthquake, but I'm not sure yet.
Gyarados (F) Lv. 44
Adamant Nature, Trait: Intimidate.
- Hydro Pump
- Surf
- Bite
- Strength
This girl has been saving my *** even as a Magikarp, where she knocked off Gary's Bulbasaur's last HP in Cerulean 'cause Wartortle was knocked out. She's definitely my toughest nut to crack, and will definitely some in handy against the Elite Four.
Vaporeon (M) Lv. 44
Jolly Nature, Trait: Water Absorb.
- Bite
- Secret Power
- Surf
- Aurora Beam
The team's wall that hardly anything can break through. An insane amount of HP and the ability to withstand a whole lot of attacks make this thing a very strong member of my team. He was hard to train until I got Surf, for I used my Water Pulse TM on Gyarados, but once I got that, he proved his worth.
Poliwrath (F) Lv. 44
Bashful Nature, Trait: Water Absorb.
- Hypnosis
- Brick Break
- Surf
- Rain Dance
Its training started out slowly, with it dying all the time, but keeping my patience in him really paid off as he is a strong Pokemon in both offense and defence. Hypnosis' accuracy is crap though, so I'll be getting rid of that.
Finished training on Four Island and since I had extra time I went to Five Island to train and and find items and such. I also need some Pokemon that are exclusive to that island. I went to the Pokemon Center first to deposit Charizard since it needs to the least amount of battle experience and I need an empty slot (my fifth slot has a Mudkip I'm raising with EXP Share). Went to the Water Labyrinth and got my Togepi Egg from the traveling man on one of the islands. Made it north to the Resort and battled Painters and other trainers enough to the point where my Raichu and Scyther both gained enought experiece to level up! Went to the Lost Cave and using a map I went to find Selphy inside. Caught a Haunter while I was at it, fought a Psychic and returned Selphy to her Resort. My team was as follows:
-Lapras lv 49
-Scyther 56
-Raichu lv 58
-Vileplume lv 67
-Mudkip lv 19
I got up to 4643 encounters for Growlithe. However, I'm scared that I'll find a different shiny, so I've decided to resume my Paras hunt. I'm currently at around 20,300 encounters. Every 1,000 encounters for Paras, I'll switch to fishing for shiny Shellder. After 500 fishings, I will switch back to Paras, and the cycle will start over.
Wish me luck you guys!
Did some more training in the game since my last update and my party is looking more and more solid and balanced. I hatched the Togepi Egg in Vermilion city and Togepi has since evolved into a Togetic via Happiness though it took several vitamins for that to happen. I continued with the main quest and went south of Five Island to fight the Birdkeepers around that area to gain more experience. I made it to the Memorial Pillar and left the Lemonade on the rock which made Tectonix's trainer happy and he gave an item I have yet to use. I then went to Six Island since I wanted to train more and unlock the Dotted Hole. I beat the trainers in the area, most of which used Rock Pokemon so Vileplume and Lapras shined, and I caught a Yanma before getting to the Dotted Hole. I solved the puzzle and just when I was about to get the Sapphire, a Scientist arrived and took it! Now I have to go to Five Island and break into Team Rocket's new warehouse to get it back from that guy. I decided to train in the Green Path before setting off. My team looks as follows:
-Lapras lv 55
-Scyther 59
-Raichu lv 62
-Vileplume lv 69
-Marshtomp lv 27
-Togetic lv 32

Interesting idea. I went to college with a couple that when they got married choose a new unique last name
I'm one of those who did not change her name back after divorce. With five kids, school stuff is SO much simpler for me. Yes, I do have to explain that we are divorced every now and again. But I realized that I may have the understanding that my ex is not part of MY family anymore, but he and I are both still part of our CHILDREN'S understanding of who THEIR family is. That was a deciding factor for me. Luckily, my ex and I live in very different worlds most of the time, and most people I now associate with have never met him, so my identity is not wrapped up in the fact that I still have his name. It doesn't even bother me anymore when I use that name. It's a lot easier to spell than my maiden name was too!
On another note, I know your divorce was likely not a pleasant experience for you or the kids, and I pray that your re-building of yourself in a new role is filled with love, support, and peace. God bless!
I also decided to keep my married name. I wanted to share the same last name as my children and I do not regret that decision.
I thought about going back to my maiden name at the time of divorce also. I talked with my kids about it and my little boy looked at me and said, "but, mom, that is MY last name". Well, that is exactly how I looked at it after that. If I remarry I would certainly take my new husband's last name because my sons are grown and married now. If I had remarried when they were growing up I would have hyphenated and used both names.
I am divorced. I am seeking an annulment. I have 5 children. I am changing my name back to my maiden name. I only changed my name to my ex husbands because of marriage. I am no longer married. I want to go back to who I was before I was married. Changing my name back to my maiden name for me is freeing. It is one more way I have moved on.
Thank you for sharing that! Really made me feel good about keeping my married name. I have 5 kids too (love seeing all the big families)...I wanted nothing more then to shed myself of "his" name, but kept it for the kids. Now I'm looking at it in a whole new light...it is "their" name (kids) and I want nothing more then to stay connected to my kids!
I kept my married name-I wanted to keep a united front with the kids. It was also a big hassle to change my name professionally when I was married and I did not have the time or energy at the time of the divorce for the explanation of the name change.
Your child is smaller, so the school issues are likely to be less of a factor since he is not used to the married name and all his friends, that was a factor for me too since my oldest is in HS and all the explaining to people.
Mary changing my name back to my maiden name in my profession is not easy either. However, I am going to do it anyways. For me I am no longer married. I am still the mother of my children and always will be whether I have the same last name as they do or not. For me it is healing to have my maiden name back and that is important to me. Changing my last name does not make me any less of a mother than if I kept my married name. However, for me having my maiden name back is freeing.
I honestly couldn't imagine keeping my ex-husbands name. I never had the same name as my children even when I was married and that was ok. I personally couldn't stand it when I heard people refer to any woman as "she used to be..." whatever her maiden name happened to be. I wasn't becoming someone brand new, or the old me no longer existed, just because I was getting married, in my opinion. It's really a very individual decision and what each person is comfortable with. There is no right or wrong.

MP3 decoders test : MAD isn't so good! (for me...), MAD vs LAME vs Winamp 5 vs foobar2000 |
MP3 decoders test : MAD isn't so good! (for me...), MAD vs LAME vs Winamp 5 vs foobar2000 |

I tried to compare different mp3 decoders, in order to evaluate the benefits of dithering (MAD and foobar2000) and noise shaping (foobar2000 only), against simplier decoders, as LAME or Fraunhofer (Winamp 5.0). I didn't hope anything first. But I've finally succeed with one sample, and decided then to resume the test with others samples.
I've wrote a complete review in french, but I can't translate it properly. In few words: For this test, I didn't reproduced real listening conditions. Difference are so subtle that I have to increase the level of my amp in order to maximise the audible difference. In order to make it possible without being completely deaf in few seconds, I've selected very quiet samples. With classical music, it's not really hard to find such samples (even full tracks are sometimes totally quiet). I didn't evaluate any decoders on pre-instrumental silence, but only when music was playing Four decoders were tested: MAD, basically in order to evaluate the real performance of this mythic decoder, and technically in order to rate the benefits of dithering WITHOUT noise shaping. LAME, to mesure the difference between MAD and a simplier decoder. Fraunhofer: in order to evaluate possible difference with LAME (both encoders are really similar, so difference may not be audible or existent) foobar2000: to see if noise shaping could make a difference with MAD dithering. Eight samples were introduced: I've mixed different musical genre: lyrical, orchestral, piano, chamber, electronic. I've tried to mixed dithered and undithered mastered CD too. CONCLUSIONS: MAD isn't impressive. On four samples, result was worse than simplest decoders: increase in noise, without audible benefit on other points of the signal (aliasing, higher definition, etc...). But on some other samples, real improvements were noticed (less aliasing, less naturel and less synthetic sound) LAME and Fraunhofer (WA5) are close, but not totally identical. Both are noisy, but less than MAD (good point). With some samples, sound was irregular, unatural... MAD partailly correct this feeling, and foobar2000 was perfect in comparison. Something like aliasing or moiré was introduced by the decoding stage. Slight difference between LAME and Fraunhofer (hard to ABX : up to 30...50 trials), in favour of Fraunhofer, less synthetic and maybe slightly more noisy foobar2000 : each time winner. The less noisy of all challengers on all samples. The only additionnal noise audible was a very high-pitched band, very typical, and audible on extreme conditions (near silence sound, and with my amp pump to the maximum). All aliasing, irregularities... were gone: instruments are smooth, naturel. Nothing synthetic at all. With one sample (the #7), the sound was clearly better than the reference file (CD!). The lack of dithering on mastering seem to be prejudicial on very low volume part, and foobar2000 decoding correct the aliasing present on the CD. Simply amazing conclusion.... All results are here : www.foobar2000.net/mp3decoder http://www.foobar2000.net/mp3decoder/conclusion.htm (I've translated in english the summary of my comments). Comments are welcome. P.S. It's not a MAD CHALLENGE. I repeat again that the listening conditions of the test are not reproductible on daily music listening. I've just put the decoder behind a magnifying glass, by using low volume samples. This post has been edited by guruboolez: Jan 18 2004, 14:02 |

4. Netflix Subscription
A 3 month subscription to Netflix streaming is less than $25.

As Americans cram every waking moment with work, family obligations and leisure activities, the time spent getting a good night's rest is sacrificed. This "sleep debt," the cumulative effect of not getting the quantity or quality of sleep needed, is a growing concern of the medical community, which is coming to realize that adequate rest ranks as high as nutrition and exercise in terms of behaviors that are central to maintaining good health.
There are over 85 recognized sleep disorders that can rob a person of the deep, restorative sleep required for a good night's rest. The Sinai Sleep Center provides a place where sleep patterns can be monitored and evaluated by sleep medicine specialists.
Sinai's Sleep Center is staffed by physicians certified by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine. Studies are performed each evening, seven days a week. The Sleep Center offers hotel-like accommodations with luxurious, private suites that are designed to provide a comfortable and tranquil environment for sleep study patients. A complimentary breakfast is provided the morning following the study and parking is free for patients.
Other highlights of the rooms include:
For purposes of the sleep study, patients are asked to turn off the lights at 11 p.m. Those patients who require moderate to low lighting while they sleep will find that their room has a night light and light dimmers to attain the appropriate amount of illumination.
A full follow-up report, including a comprehensive hypnogram chart of the quantity and quality of sleep, including up to 25 channels of sleep monitoring with state-of-the-art equipment and software, is provided to the referring physician. Each study is videotaped, with audio recording and data collection by an attending polysomnographic technologist.
Sinai Hospital of Baltimore Shapiro Building 2401 W. Belvedere Ave. Baltimore, MD 21215
For more information about the Sinai Sleep Center, call 410-601-9523. The Sleep Center staff will provide complete registration instructions when the appointment is scheduled.

It's not merely a sin-sick soul that is in need of profound redemption, writes our columnist, it is also our society and structural institutions that call out for being redeemed and transformed. A clear call to question, connect, and transform ourselves and our institutions.
Just when you think the holiday season couldn't get any merrier, a Star Trek captain remakes a Christmas classic.
For the introverts in us, winter can be a time of reflection to assess and remember our own inner truths. Includes a poem by David Whyte.
A letter from Einstein on the "Negro question" is rediscovered and essays on white privilege and the theology of Ferguson are complemented with ideas about opening up to hope and ourselves.
"Our genome sequence is the genetic blueprint of our biological self but how much does it, or will we let it, define who we are?" A journalist seeks to reconcile questions of mystery with questions of genetics.
In a culture of curated sharing, the intimacy of human touch can be daunting — even for a pastor. An essay on how the practice of laying on of hands is a quiet and necessary rite that ought to become part of our story again.
With the overwhelming angst of privilege, our columnist confesses to her own inclinations to participate in Twitter testimonies of white privilege. But, it's no substitute for the moral imagination required to acknowledge the emotional lives of others.
We build all sorts of enclosures to protect us and keep our loved ones safe from harm. But in column in poetical form, we are tasked with being vulnerable and opening those gates.
When we ask our deepest questions, the answers do not come immediately. And that, dear reader, is why we must choose them with care.
A black theologian talks with one of America's leading Old Testament scholars about Ferguson and the place of protest and prophecy in our faith, the place for our rage, the need for honest talk, the role of education in protest, and the transformative potential of radicality.
With the decisions about the deaths of Michael Brown and Eric Garner, powerful words from a Holocaust survivor and essays dealing with grief and loss, systemic solutions, and polls that polarize.
With the beginning of Advent, a theologian challenges Christians and the rest of us to wait and watch, and to walk alongside those whose hopes have been crushed — with poesy from Seamus Heaney speaking to that truth.
With the grand jury's decision not to indict the police officer who killed Michael Brown, a school of children's uncommon silence in New Mexico leads the way to expressing grief and finding a role for our anger.
Ancient mystics such as Rumi and Rabia wrestled with the idea of heaven. A commentary that ponders heaven as a state of being rather than a place.
A powerful commentary from the mother of a black teenage son who says we need to stop talking around the edges of race and address the systemic problem itself: that we see black men as less than human.
For Thanksgiving, Parker Palmer asks us to find new ways to be filled with gratitude and praise. It's in the gratitude for the ground we stand on, the blessing of togetherness, and the kindness of strangers, that we remember our work is loving the world.
Interesting and curiosity for your week on moral injury, asking the right questions, the price of busyness, and gratitude for caregivers.
Is our so-called polarization a crafted perception? A truth-telling commentary on the problem with polls, the need for curiosity in public life, and a call for a new kind of conversation on what we believe — beyond either/or.
From a virtuosic performance to an audio selfie and poems on abundance, a feast of ideas and passages for you to take into your week.
For International Survivors of Suicide Loss Day, a suicide survivor asks us open ourselves to loss and allow each other the space to mourn and grieve without shame. If we support the healing of the soul, she writes, we may begin to celebrate our inner resilience and the divine spark in us all.
Atul Gawande's new book on the aging and the dying process inspires this column on turning bearing witness to our own instincts and doing things a different way.
Three male Muslim leaders walk into an Amsterdam hotel to drop off their luggage, and they are presented with an unexpected question. How does one confront the the prejudice present in society today? Can it be confronted, or does it require face-to-face encounters?
The scarcity assumption can be a self-fulfilling prophecy — and a killer of the spirit. With a poem from Wendell Berry and a few thoughts of his own.
Sometimes a song can help us through the darkest hours of our lives. Reflecting upon the loss of her father, Jen Raffensperger shares Josh Ritter's "Lantern" as her greatest musical moment for the Your Audio Selfie project.
Our executive editor's weekly post on all things curious and aspiring — on topics from leading a less busy life to seeking rootedness and a cancer patient's call to her senses.

Hassan seeking compromise after State Employees' Assoc. snubs 6% raises
"We will be working within the budget but are confident that if all parties continue to work in good faith, a positive agreement can be reached," said Hassan spokesman Marc Goldberg.
Previous articles reported the reduction could lead to the layoffs of 200 to 300 workers.
She said across-the-board layoffs that were part of the prior two budgets were preceded by four to six months of preparation, including plans for how agencies will do with fewer workers. Yet, nothing has happened so far.
Goldberg wouldn't address specifics about layoffs, such as how many are anticipated and what preparations are under way.
email@example.com union has said it fears that members in the North Country would not be able to take advantage of lower health costs through Anthem's Site of Service product. She said she wants a health plan that offers equal treatment, accessiblity and affordability.

Parties prepare for arguments in Bowman v. Monsanto1:54 PM MST | February 4, 2013 | Kara Sissell The Supreme Court next month will hear arguments in a landmark case that will determine intellectual property rights involving unauthorized reuse of Monsanto's genetically modified seed traits. The case, Bowman v. Monsanto, involves an Indiana grower who purchased Roundup Ready seeds on the commodity market. The grower, Vernon Bowman, argues that US law protects Monsanto's patent rights only for first-generation use of the seed trait, and that reuse of Monsanto's seeds does not require a license since the seeds were purchased legally from a...

I'm very excited to see the beautiful space that is the Google YouTube offices in San Bruno, CA. Working with this team, including the pastry chef has been a dream. Did you know that the ingredients are local, organic and fair-traded? The pastry team is making the Ganache Glazed Chocolate Torte to Live For, both wheat and gluten free versions and serving the Vanilla Pastry Cream from Vegan Chocolate. My cookbook trailer, as seen on YouTube will be shown and some of the ingredients from the recipes will be set out in an area of the cafe. I'll be available to answer questions about the recipes. Do you think the googlers will like the cakes? I'll be surprised if they don't. Books will be available for purchase.
See the Frank Gehry-designed Binoculars Building just two blocks from the beach and you'll have found Google Los Angeles. I'm certainly looking forward to doing an Authors@Google talk and demonstration cooking class. As this is google, the food is fresh, organic and very vegan friendly. I'm making the Chocolate Torte to Live For, Ganache Glazed and serving the cakes with Vanila Cream and fresh berries. A YouTube Video will be made and I'll post the link. Working at Google LA has it's benefits.
