I love the Calafans! This was a neat look, not just at the humans trying to learn the customs with a fire hose, but just introducing all of us to this setting and culture. Fun stuff. And hooray for strange customs causing an intergalactic incident; I was sure Doug was gonna pop that guy. Can't wait to see more!

Released: Nov 01st, 1987
Running Time: 80
Director: Eric Edwards
Company: Arrow Video
Ona Zee, Krista Lane, Brandon (I)
Critical Rating: AAA
Genre: Feature
Well, well. An adult tape in which I wouldn't change a thing. That's right. Not a thing. The quality of this production, the sex, the story, the acting (yes, the acting), are all excellent.
As written, directed, produced and edited by Eric Edwards, this in one of the finest adult videos I've ever scene. Arrow couldn't have wished for a better way to introduce their "Firelight Romance" line.
The story is simple. Amy (Krista Lane), a writer of romance novels, rents an old, supposedly haunted house for inspiration for her new novel. She happens upon a diary from 1887 and as she begins to read it, she imagines seeing the writer, Molly (Shanna McCullough). Well, lucky for us she has a vivid imagination. Yep, we see it all there on the screen as we hear Amy read.
Molly writes explicitly of the household where she's employed (she's the chambermaid). And we explicitly see her words come to life. Members of the household include her lover (Brandon), a dominatrix housekeeper (Ona Zee), the head of the house (Nick Random) and a distant teenage cousin (Rene Summers, who co-wrote the video).
We are treated to love, sex, masturbation, lesbian, mild bondage and multiple combination scenes. All is extremely tasteful, lighthearted, sincere, inoffensive and erotic. I almost hate saying this video is perfect for couples, because that taints its quality in some minds. But it is, and I've said it. Hard to believe, but this production has the same appeal as a romance novel, yet delivers everything an adult tape should. You can't go wrong.

Cranberry Couscous
These Flavors work so well together. A bit salty and a but sweet and perfect for a
week day lunch with friends. I found myself eating this every time I walked into the
kitchen. I could not get enough of it. It was so good that I made it twice this week.
Cranberry Couscous
1 box plain couscous
2 cups chicken broth or vegetable broth
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil or butter
5 ounce bag dried cranberries
2 green onions
1 lemon, juiced
2 ounces crumbled feta
pine nuts, toasted
1) In a medium saucepan, bring broth, salt and butter to a boil.
2) Stir in Couscous, cover
3)Remove from heat, let stand 5 minutes and fluff with a fork.
4) Add lemon, cranberries, pine nuts, green onions, and feta.
Note, to toast pine nuts all you need to do is get a small saucepan with no oil,
on medium heat and constantly toss until golden.

Another car review site likened the radio to a cheap stopwatch, but for night drives it's both poor contrast and too bright (likely part of the contrast problem). Yes, you can press Display to turn the screen off, but as soon as you relight it by changing station or volume, it stays on with no timer circuit/code to turn back off for you. Accent forum members have discussed using tinting, tinted film, etc. I've put photo filters in front of it on my rental, and in photo terms it's about 1 stop too bright compared to the main instrument panel. I like the blue letter lights in general but I suspect KIA got it right on the Rio using orange, which is easier on the eyes at night.

Isadora's Fine Lingerie offers much more than authentic French lace and high fashion styling.
What more is there?
The right fit says proprietress Irene Callisto.
"So many people are so taken in by marketing -- but so much of that stuff is not made for real women but for mannequins," said Kayla Nolan, a customer at Isadora's Fine Lingerie.
What does Callisto think of the goods at what's-her-name's-secret?
"It's mass produced, which means ill fitting. I bend over backwards to get the right fit in undergarments for my customers," she said. "Girls who are size 30 with an F cup, come in wearing size 36 D all the time."
But not for long, as Callisto knows how important properly fitted undergarments are for one's overall look.
Many of Isadora's lines are European, as this is what they are known for and, "When it comes to lingerie they don't fool around," Irene said.
Especially for Valentine's Day, she brought in two new lines from England, "Playful Promise" and "Naughty Nickers."
Anna Hoffmann recently modeled Isadora's lingerie at a fashion show at the Corinthian Club. "If I had a valentine -- I'd love the red silk gown that I modeled for Isadora's at the Corinthian Club Fashion show," Hoffmann hinted.
"Don't do it for Valentine's Day or your birthday or just your wedding day," Nolan said, "Do it because it's Monday."
Experience makes the fit better
Isadora's, at 191 Walton Street in Armory Square, is Callisto's third lingerie shop in more than a quarter of a century. Originally from Camillus, she opened her first shop on the commons in Ithaca.
Actually, it all started with a Hanky Panky G-string. She was out with her, then husband, looking for a simple camisole. He just didn't have his heart in the outing, until they walked by a window with a simple white lacey G-string; then suddenly no amount of money was too much. She opened her first shop and never looked back.

A Data-Based Quantitative Approach to Providing...
(Page 1 of 1)
Researchers developed a novel computation method that they say is designed to better identify genomic regions harboring disease-susceptibility genes.
The approach uses mapping by admixture linkage disequilibrium (MALD). It looks for patterns of variation that are over-represented in groups with increased susceptibility to a particular disorder.
In the current study, scientists developed a new technique for MALD called expected mutual information. "Our novel approach extends previous methods by incorporating knowledge on population admixture, drawing a more precise picture of the mosaic of ancestries along an individual's genome," explains primary author, Sivan Bercovici from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology.
The scientists anticipate that this new method may lead to significant advances in the ability to isolate the genetic determinants of common diseases. "The convergence of the novel computational technologies provided in this manuscript with analysis and knowledge of the population genetic architecture of special populations of interest should greatly facilitate design and implementation of genome-wide mapping of susceptibility loci for clinical phenotypes of general importance in human health and disease," explains coauthor Karl Skorecki, M.D, also from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology.
Besides investigators from Technion-Israel Institute of Technology, the study included researchers from Washington University. The paper was published in the March 18 edition of Genome Research.

Onwards and upwards to other events :o)
...........only one so far of me!
I didn't bother with the finish line one. Haven't for years! Does that make me a bad person?
I wouldn't have even if I had a pb. Not paying silly prices any more!
I only have a few photos - when I first started running.
Most of the shots I have now are taken by supporters and G.
My medals are slung in a heap at the bottom of my wardrobe! lol Yes the IM one was lovely but again is not anywhere special. The memories are worth far more
You'd never guess I'm not at work to day would you......
Great pics Relaxed!!
Me niether Hash. I have a whole 2 weeks off now. No doubt it is going to do nothing but rain for the next fortnight as I have to get out on the bike!!
Great pictures Relaxed!!
I'm at work but can't focus!! Much rather be on here right now!
wow! - great photos!
I sort of survived DOMS is not too bad at all a bit stiff if I've been still for too long that is all.....But my right leg ITB
But the worst of all I am feeling really low, both yesterday and today, sort of deflated and depressed and wonders what next after the anticlimax of Sundays marathon...is anyone else feeling like this?
I need a new challenge to look forward to I think, a marathon sounds good as I still want a sub 4 preferably sub 3.30.
Hello all, can I join in?
I've been on Lucy's SuperSix thread, and Support Group 8 - what a lifesaver you lot have been!
I'd love to meet up and/or do a South East Half at some point.. and I'm definitely up for another 'back of the pack' marathon at some point..
MadWelshWoman(https://www.bmycharity.com/V2/jaynierance) wrote (see)
I'd like to join in with this thread if that's okay? I am planning on doing Cardiff half in October.
Hello MadWelshWoman, lovely to see you on Sunday!
Zaba what you are feeling is a recognised condition!! Lots of people get it. What you need is something else to focus on and fast!
I always have another event sometime in the near(ish) future otherwise I would stop training altogether I think. Find a good half somewhere and get training again, gently to start with and you will soon be on top of the world. Or do something different. Run off road, get on a bike, go for a swim, anything!

Slow Cookin' Sunday: Chicken Veggie Soup
Man, I sure was crabby last Sunday. And whiny. This Sunday, though, I am in much better spirits.
Despite the fact that there is a nasty cold making its way through the family. It started with my mom, then my oldest daughter and now my husband is hacking away, chasing his nose everywhere. So this week's Slow Cookin' Sunday was really a no brainer -- Chicken Veggie Soup -- because nothing quite takes the edge off a nasty cold like a big steaming bowl.
At the same time, I decided to start a cleanse on Thursday and instead of plopping down hundreds of dollars to STOP eating, I decided to create my own, loosely based on popular cleanses I had read about. Today is day 5 and I must admit, I feel pretty great. I was feeling puffy, sluggish, craving sugar like c-r-a-z-y and just inflamed so I decided I needed to flush my system and get back on track. So here's what I'm doing:
Breakfast: A green smoothie with lots and lots of fresh spinach. (I'm still experimenting with different variations; haven't quite found one I absolutely love.)
Mid-morning: Another smoothie, fortified with protein powder. (I've been loving a blueberry pear ginger smoothie that I think I am going to post soon.)
Lunch: A light lunch like a brown rice wrap with veggies or some roasted chicken in a salad.
Mid-afternoon: Another smoothie, fortified with protein powder.
Dinner: A light dinner like this chicken veggie soup!
If I get hungry I have some brown rice crackers or veggies with some hummus, which I am quickly getting addicted to and I also started taking a multi-vitamin. I've eliminated dairy completely from my diet, as well as red meat, eggs, bananas, grapes, oranges, strawberries, nightshade veggies, peanuts...
I am going to try and maintain this for two weeks and see how I feel. But I feel so good right now that I don't really foresee a problem.
Also, I was *cleared* on Thursday to start running again, so I am taking it very slow and running 1/4 mile increments each week, which means today is my second day of running a 1/4 mile and walking 3/4 of a mile.
So this chicken veggie soup has served two purposes: It's helped soothe some wicked colds in this family and it also is the perfect light dinner to incorporate into my cleanse -- not to mention, it takes about ten minutes to throw together and the wonderful slow cooker does the rest. I brought some over to my mom's house on Friday and she had some quinoa we added to it for a little texture and it was even more scrumptious.
Slow Cooker Chicken Veggie Soup
Makes About 8 Cups
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 large sweet onion, chopped
1 lb carrots, sliced thin
4 celery stalks, sliced thin
1 bay leaf
1 lb chicken thigh (I used boneless, skinless)
2 large split chicken breasts (I used bone-in and they are normally frozen)
4 cups water or chicken broth (I used water)
1 cup of cooked quinoa (optional)
Salt to taste
Heat oil in a medium pan over medium-high heat and sweat chopped onion until translucent. Season with salt.
In the bottom of a slow cooker, layer the carrots, then celery and bay leaf. Add the chicken on top and season generously with salt.
Pour cooked onions over the chicken and then carefully pour the water or chicken broth over the chicken. Cover and cook on low for 6 hours.
When finished, pull out the chicken and allow to cool. Spoon veggies into a bowl. Pour the broth through a cheesecloth-lined sieve into the bowl with the veggies. Shred chicken and add to the bowl. Add the cooked quinoa at this point, if desired. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Staff Reporter
TIRUNELVELI: Demanding the regularisation of their service, a group of 22 sanitary workers of Alangulam town panchayat submitted petitions to the Collector G. Prakash on Monday.
The petitioners said that though they had been working as sanitary workers for the past thirteen years, their services were yet to be regularised. Even after the Minister for Local Administration had assured in the Assembly that services of temporary sanitary workers, who had served continuously for two years in the local bodies, would be regularised, the Executive Officer of Alangulam Town Panchayat had terminated their 13-year service.
"Since the local body has only ten permanent sanitary workers to serve the population of over 25,000, the services of temporary sanitary workers should be regularised, considering their 13 years of service," they appealed.
Demanding free house site patta, a group of residents from Nehru Nagar in ward 48 of Tirunelveli Corporation submitted petition to the Collector. They, mostly beedi rollers, construction workers and domestic workers, said they were living in a government poramboke land for the past forty years and hence, free house site pattas might be given to them.

Australian startups plan on using UAVs to deliver textbooks
By Ben Coxworth
October 18, 2013
University textbooks can be quite expensive to purchase, so Australian startup Zookal now offers an increasingly popular option – textbook rentals. The problem is, some of the money that students save by renting just goes into shipping charges for the rented books. That's why Zookal has joined with another Ozzie startup, Flirtey, to offer free textbook delivery by drone.
Students would start by ordering a text using Zookal's smartphone app. That book would be loaded into a carrying case mounted on the underside of an unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV), at a regional Zookal dispatch center. The aircraft – a hexacopter – would then fly to the client by homing in on their phone's GPS coordinates.
It would fly using autonomous control technology, which would include a collision avoidance system to keep it from hitting things like trees or buildings. Additionally, it would feature a fail-safe system that would cause it to slowly descend to the ground if its battery pack died.
The client, meanwhile, would be able to track the UAV's progress via its own GPS chip. When the hexacopter arrived at their location, it would hover in place and lower the text down to them on retractable cords.
If the Flirtey textbook delivery service does indeed get off the ground (no pun intended), the company hopes to expand the service to other countries for delivery of a variety of goods. Australia is a good place to start, as it has already legalized commercial UAV flights. Flirtey co-founder Matthew Sweeny says that delivery costs should be very low, and would be covered by the marketing budget of partner companies utilizing the service.
The technology is being developed with the assistance of the University of Sydney's Warren Center for Advanced Engineering. A demonstration project is planned to take place on the university campus.
The Matternet project plans to take delivery-by-drone several steps further, using quadcopters and a network of charging stations to deliver goods to remote African communities. At the other end of the spectrum, the organizers of this year's Oppikoppi music festival used UAVs to get beer to thirsty concert-goers.

A $1000 drone would have to make about 200 flawless autonomous flights before it paid for itself. If you put a human in the loop to control it, forget about ever saving any money compared to the cost of shipping the book.

they say 9/10 startups fail in the first year.
here's 2 more.

5 years time - everyone will have 'drop-boxes' on the side of their house/apartment for these drones to deliver fast food. But it'll need some new planning departments to set local air rules to avoid mayhem.

"When the hexacopter arrived at their location, it would hover in place and lower the text down to them on retractable cords."
Were these people never students? How many drones do they think they're going to get back?!
Chris Hogan21st October, 2013 @ 08:28 am PDT
People would struggle to steal the drones without being caught on camera. The drone can call home when anything destabilizes the flight and stream the theft back to the office. Whether this stops students... is another matter.
Hugh M Halford-Thompson21st October, 2013 @ 09:12 am PDT
I thought with the onslaught of iPads and similar other devices we would be moving *away* from paper text books. On a more general note, I wonder how well the concept of UAV-based delivery services would scale upwards? Could you imagine a neighbourhood with dozens of these things flying around delivering packages from Amazon and eBay? FedEx and UPS rest easy (for now).
Marlon Allan Thomas21st October, 2013 @ 02:29 pm PDT
If it is cheaper than post, why doesn't the Post Office use them ?

It is illegal in Australia to fly a drone without a helicopter pilot's license.

great way to deliver a booby prize, like a bomb

PR fluff. Might work if your customer lived in the middle of an empty field within 5 minutes flying time of the depot and for some reason wanted an empty cardboard box delivered.
Otherwise - let the Postie deliver the book, or better yet download the electronic version.

New Employee at The Marian Library Cindy Osborne: I am Cindy Osborne. I began working part-time as the Graphic Design Specialist in the Marian Library at the end of October. I have 8 children ranging in age from 25 through 3. I also have two beautiful grandsons, ages 6 years and 11 months. I've been full-time Mommy working from home as a graphic designer, clothing designer and seamstress for many years. I've also been a long-time volunteer for a number of pro-life organizations, a Christian music venue and in 1989 co-founded Feminists for Life of Ohio. I recently opened a boutique to sell my clothing and accessories in The Hotel Gallery in Tipp City. You can find me there on weekends. For fun my children and I attend performances by local bands and plan all winter for our favorite summer music festivals--Cornerstone Illinois and the Pro-life Music Festival in Warsaw, Indiana. I am delighted with my job. I'm doing what I love in the midst of some of the most amazing art and surrounded by people who love the Lord. What more could I desire? These are exciting times for my children and I. Mary in Books, Films and Music Zeffirelli recalls Paul VI's help with Jesus of Nazareth--Pope thanked Director for work When the television miniseries "Jesus of Nazareth" was released 30 years ago, Pope Paul VI personally thanked Franco Zeffirelli for his work; but the series was a success only because of the Pontiff's help, the director said. At an Oct. 25 lecture marking the new academic year at the Pontifical Lateran University of Rome, Zeffirelli recalled some of what went on behind the scenes during the filming of the more than six hours of "Jesus of Nazareth." As a youth, Zeffirelli studied at St. Mark's Convent in Florence. There, Cardinal Giovanni Montini, then archbishop of Milan and the future Paul VI, visited a group of Christian university youth involved with Catholic Action. It was at the school that Zeffirelli got to know the future Pope. Cardinal Montini went there frequently, the director recalled, to spend what the cardinal called "the most happy hours of his day." The 84-year-old director related how the cardinal, who knew of the youth's aspirations to the theater, told him jokingly, "In a different era, they would have kept you from being buried in consecrated land, but now the Church has changed, so much so that we welcome you as an instrument for spreading good ideas and good hope." "Later," Zeffirelli said, it was the Pope who, "with his discreet network of influence, brought 'Jesus of Nazareth' forward through some difficulties. In the end, this order was given: 'Zeffirelli or no one.'" A career As the Italian director embarked upon his career and advanced in it, he said he realized "the weapon I had in my hands and how it could be decisive for the lives of thousands of people, as much for good as for evil." "When you have the possibility of encouraging men who suffer and of broadening their horizons of hope, you feel a responsibility that is too big for the poor man that you are," he said. "Jesus of Nazareth" is just one of the some two dozen productions that Zeffirelli directed. Since its debut, he affirmed, letters of thanks and affection have been nonstop. And a few notes have even recounted a decision to follow a religious vocation, thanks to the inspiration received through the film. "I only did what I could do as the Christian that I am in the depths of my spirit," the director said. Falling in place According to Zeffirelli, "Jesus of Nazareth" progressed as if "it had wind in its sails." He recalled that Elizabeth Taylor was to play the part of Mary Magdalene. But when she fell ill, Anne Bancroft replaced her. Bancroft accepted less pay than what she was accustomed to, thus saving the production money. The director also remembered the role of Monsignor Peter Rossano, former rector of the Pontifical Lateran University, who acted as consultant during the preparation and filming in Morocco. Zeffirelli said his own faith was invigorated with the film. He described one moment, in particular: "During the scene of the Last Supper, there was a climate of absolute silence and deep spirituality in the room, while outside, a sandstorm raged. The moment was broken by the sobbing of my co-workers. "I want to think there was an energy outside of us, which was invoked in order to make that sublime moment. And in effect, it is one of the most beautiful and spine-tingling moments of the film." "We suspected the intrusion of a supreme force guiding us," he added, and because of this, "everyone knew that we were doing something very important." Thank you Zeffirelli spoke of the moment when the Pope expressed his gratitude for the movie: "When Paul VI received me in a private audience after viewing the film in 1977, he thanked me and asked me what the Church could do for me. I told him: 'I would like this work to be brought to Russia as well.'" "He looked at me and told me prophetically: 'Have faith; soon the flag of Our Lady will wave above the Kremlin, in place of the red one.' "On Dec. 8, 1991, the feast of the Immaculate Conception," Zeffirelli recalled, "the red flag with the sickle and hammer that waved above the Kremlin for decades was replaced with the Russian Federation flag."

Radio Maria also broadcasts Hispanic programming in Spanish at the Center to the Houston, Texas area. From the Marian Treasure Chest Marian Significance of the EU Flag (by Brother John Samaha, S.M.) The flag of the European Union (EU) shows a circle of twelve stars on a blue background. The flag was designed by Arsene Heitz, who took inspiration for the flag from the image on the Miraculous Medal as well as the woman with a crown of twelve stars in the Book or Revelation (chapter 12). Heitz has been deeply devoted to Mary, praying the rosary with his wife daily. Coincidentally, the flag was officially adopted on December 8, 1955, the feast of Mary's Immaculate Conception. The design was acceptable to non-Catholic countries because the number twelve is commonly understood as a symbol of fullness. Current Exhibit!

In the Holy See Press Office this morning, the presentation took place of the program of
celebrations organized to mark the 150th anniversary of the apparitions of the Immaculate
Conception to Bernadette Soubirous in Lourdes, France.
Participating in the press conference were Bishop Jacques Perrier of Tarbes and Lourdes,
Fr. Vincenzo Battaglia O.F.M., president of the Pontifical International Marian Academy, and
Alessandro Pinna of UNITALSI (Italian National Union for Transport of the Sick to Lourdes and International Shrines).
Bishop Perrier indicated that for the 150th anniversary a Jubilee Year will be held, due to
run from December 8, 2007, Solemnity of the Immaculate Conception, to December 8, 2008, and
"to take place within the context of the new evangelization."
Concerning the possibility of a pilgrimage by the Pope to Lourdes for the 150th anniversary,
Bishop Perrier confirmed that Benedict XVI would visit "though we still do not know the exact date."
"Shrines and pilgrimages," the prelate went on, "today occupy an important place in
religious life, especially among people who do not habitually follow religious practices.
Shrine are places of silent evangelization." In this context he indicated that a Mariological-Marian
congress due to be held in Lourdes from September 4 to 8, 2008, on the theme of "the
apparitions of the Virgin Mary: history faith and theology" will consider "the inducement to
convert exercised by shrines in general and by Marian shrines in particular."
The bishop of Lourdes highlighted how, "in the vast mission of the Church, there are twelve fields in which Lourdes possesses
special competency, thanks to its original message and to its 150 years of history.
"The mission of the Church in each of these fields," he added, "will become apparent during
the Jubilee Year with pilgrimages, meetings and initiatives." For example "the mission of the
Church to the sick will be made manifest thanks to the UNITALSI pilgrimages," and missions are also envisaged with volunteers, with
young people, with the disabled, to appeal for unity among Christians, to call for conversion, for peace, etc.
Bishop Perrier then indicated how on February 11, 2008, Feast of Our Lady of Lourdes and World Day of the Sick, the first of the eighteen
apparitions of the Virgin to Bernadette will be commemorated (the last apparition took place on July 16, 1858, Feast of Our Lady of
Mount Carmel). A week later, on February 18, 2008, Feast of St. Bernadette, the first of the 15 consecutive apparitions will be
remembered. "Our Lady asked Bernadette to come to the Grotto every day, and she kept her promise despite the difficulties."
March 25, will mark the anniversary of the 16th apparition of the Virgin. "On that day, Feast of the Annunciation," said
Bishop Perrier, "the Lady finally pronounced her name: I am the Immaculate Conception."
The bishop then indicated how from July 15 to 20, 2008, to coincide with World Youth Day in Sydney, Australia, various groups of young
Christian artists will perform in Lourdes.
The "path of the Jubilee" which the pilgrims will be invited to follow, symbolically leads from Baptism to the Eucharist and
includes four stages: the parish baptistery where Bernadette was baptized; the hut where her family lived which, "with its poverty
and darkness, is a cause for reflection on the paradoxical nature of divine preferences;" the road to the grotto;
and the chapel of the hospice where Bernadette received First Communion on June 3, 1858.
Numerous publications are appearing to coincide with the Jubilee, intended for people of all ages and from all Christian backgrounds.
The event will also be celebrated with a Jubilee Mass composed by Br. Jean Paul Lecot, musical director of the Shrine of Lourdes. On
December 8, in homage to John Paul II, the inauguration will take place of mosaics representing the Luminous Mysteries of the Rosary on
the facade of the Basilica of Our Lady of the Rosary, the work of Fr. Marko Ivan Rupnik.
It is expected that some eight million pilgrims will visit Lourdes for the Jubilee Year.
The director and editors of The Mary Page under the auspices of the
International Marian Research Institute do not necessarily endorse or agree with
the events and ideas expressed in this feature. Our sole purpose is to report on
items about Mary gleaned from a myriad of papers representing the secular press.
Mary's Garden Progress
On Sunday November 11, a group planted Mary's Stars and Church Steeple bulbs in
the Mary Garden at Saint Francis Xavier Cathedral in Green Bay, Wisconsin.
The sun was shining. The weather was warmish (for November!), and many
interested people came to see the progress of the garden, planting a bulb or two
while they were there. It was great! ... Now the garden will be quiet
until Spring, but we'll have Christmas lights and some evergreens to keep it
lovely during winter! Over winter we'll finalize our choices for plants
and anxiously wait for spring planting. The Message of Christmas
A three-foot-tall metallic foil church façade from Poland reflects gold, silver,
ruby and emerald light, and hides a tiny Mary, Joseph and baby Jesus at its
center. A few feet away, dwarfing the tiny figures, tall marionettes from
Slovakia are suspended by strings, literally bring the Christmas story to life.
The two Nativity scenes, also called crèches, along with scores of others, are
on public view this Christmas season at the University of Dayton's Marian
Library and in other locations in the Dayton area. Selections from the library's
collection of about 1,500 Nativity scenes, one of the largest in the U.S., are on
loan to the Dayton Art Institute, Bergamo Center in Beavercreek, Ohio, the UD campus and several local parishes.
The library's collection reaches more people each year, said the Rev. Johann
Roten, S.M., director of the International Marian Research Institute. The loaned
displays allow the community to enjoy the artistry and diversity of the crèches
and at the same time, remind people that these scenes are more than art pieces, he said.
"We like to make sure what we have in our holdings are useful," Roten said. "The
Nativity scenes from so many countries help to announce the message of Christmas."
Paper is the theme of the Marian Library's gallery display this year, which
includes 106 antique crèches on loan from Pennsylvania collector Bill Baker.
Baker's collection includes three-dimensional pop-up scenes, some dating from
1880. The Marian Library display is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday
through Friday starting Nov. 26 on the seventh floor of Roesch Library. It will run for a full year.
Thirty crèches will showcase secondary figures in Nativity scenes including
townspeople, animals, wise men and other visitors at the Dayton Art Institute
from Wednesday, Nov. 21, through Jan. 6 in a collection titled, "Who Else Was at the Nativity?"
"We want to show who else was at the manger," Roten said. "Most cultures have
very distinctive ways in which an important event is greeted, and those are
expressed in ways that are unique to that culture."
crèches at the art institute will showcase visitors to the Nativity from a
number of different cultures and regions. Different animals, townspeople and
protectors can be seen, reflecting the values and practices of each culture.
One crèche from Iceland includes 13 Yulemen, mystical, mischievous people known
for causing trouble who come one by one and who are expelled by the light of
Christmas, according to Sister M. Jean Frisk, S.S.M, director of special projects for the library.
Instead of shepherds, angels and wise men Jesus, Mary and Joseph are joined by
crocodiles and polar bears. Political conflict is expressed in a scene from the
Chiapas region of southern Mexico, where revolutionaries in black and red
carrying guns and backpacks gather to be with the similarly dressed Holy Family.
The Bergamo Center in Beavercreek, Ohio, a Catholic, Marianist retreat and
conference center, will display 30 crèches in a collection titled "Christmas
Around the World," a global village theme. The display is open from noon to 4
p.m. Wednesday through Sunday at 4400 Shakertown Road.
The library's crèche collection also will be displayed in more than 30 locations
across the UD campus in academic and administrative offices including the
schools of law and engineering, and the president's and provost's offices.
"Once you start looking at them, it's amazing how many from different countries
there are," said Tim Stonecash, assistant dean of the School of Law. "When I
grew up, I had my little Nativity scene as a child ... and I had that vision in
my mind. When you go over to the library, you think, 'Wow, look at the
possibilities. Look at what kids in Russia or Ireland must have grown up looking
"I think it helps people here feel good about the Christmas season and the
special meaning it has for the faculty, staff and students and those visiting
the law school," Stonecash said.
The library's crèches also are on view at parishes in the Dayton area and other Ohio cities. You are invited to help us pray for our Prayer Corner intentions. Please take a look! This site has been updated and enhanced and now allows users to directly submit prayer requests or to volunteer as a prayer partner for these intentions!

Episode Summary
It's Baby Bear's first day of school and he's very excited! Papa Bear drops Baby Bear off at the Storybook Community School and tells him that he loves him and will be back after school to pick him up. At school, Baby Bear meets and becomes friends with Hansel and Gretel, Jack and Jill, Little Red Riding Hood, and other storybook characters. While Baby Bear is having fun making friends and learning new things, he often misses his family throughout the day. Baby Bear wonders what they are doing and wishes that they could be there to share in the excitement of his first day in school. When Papa Bear picks Baby Bear up, Baby Bear tells him that while he had a great time at school, he also really missed his family. Papa Bear reassures Baby Bear by telling him that it's okay to miss the family. He tells Baby Bear to just think about the time they get to see each other again at the end of the day, and how he will tell his family about all the great things he did in school!
