On November 4, 2014, Oregon voters overwhelming approved Measure 91, 56% to 44%! Oregon and Alaska, whose voters also approved a similar measure that same night, join Washington and Colorado in taxing and regulating marijuana like alcohol. Meanwhile, voters in D.C. approved a measure that removes all penalties for possession, use, and cultivation by adults 21 and older.
Beginning on July 1, 2015, Measure 91 will legalize the possession, private use, and cultivation of marijuana by adults 21 and older. It also requires the liquor commission to license and regulate four types of marijuana businesses to produce, process, wholesale, and sell marijuana for adults' use. For more information, please see our summary of the new law.
In the meantime, lawmakers in Salem have begun the 2015 legislative session, and there is no shortage of marijuana policy related proposals to debate, some positive, some not so much. Protecting the intent of Measure 91 through the implementation process is a top priority this year. Additionally, bills to add conditions to the medical program have been introduced as well.
Congratulations to the entire team at the Yes on 91 campaign. Thanks to their hard work, adults in Oregon will no longer be penalized by the state for choosing to use marijuana in private. However, the necessary work of ensuring that marijuana is properly regulated is not over yet. Please sign up for our alerts, and keep an eye on your inbox to find out how to help ensure faithful implementation of the voters' will.
Thank you for supporting the Marijuana Policy Project and all of our allies. If you have any questions concerning the status of marijuana policy reform in Oregon, you can contact MPP at [email protected]. Also, be sure to subscribe to MPP's free legislative alert service today.

New federal fracturing rule due any day
By Jennifer A. Dlouhy | April 11, 2013
Photo By Charles Dharapak/STFKen Salazar expects new hydraulic fracturing regulations will "stand the test of time."

The government will unveil federal regulations governing hydraulic fracturing and drilling on public lands within days, a top Obama administration official signaled Thursday.
"The rule is imminent," said Ken Salazar, testifying before a House subcommittee during his final such appearance as Interior secretary. "I expect my successor will be announcing it in the very near future."
The Senate this week confirmed Sally Jewell, who runs the recreation equipment company REI, as the next Interior secretary.
The drilling rules expected from the Bureau of Land Management would tighten standards on oil and natural gas unlocked through horizontal drilling and hydraulic fracturing. In January, after sifting through nearly 200,000 public comments on a 2012 draft, the bureau announced it was retooling the plan.
A version unveiled last May would have forced energy companies to reveal the chemicals they use when drilling for oil and natural gas on federal lands. But in a provision that riled environmentalists, the Interior Department decided to require those disclosures only after the substances are pumped underground.
The proposed rule also would have imposed new well construction standards, testing requirements and mandates for managing and storing water that flows back after fracturing begins.
But after pushback from various interests, the regulators scrapped that plan.
According to a leaked draft of the pending revisions, companies would be able to disclose the chemicals used at drilling sites via an existing industry-backed website, FracFocus.
Salazar has cast that decision as a pragmatic move, given that the oil and gas industry already uses the site both voluntarily and to comply with state disclosure mandates.
But environmentalists compare that approach to letting the fox guard the henhouse.
"Requiring disclosure to FracFocus would run counter to the administration's pledge to increase transparency, instead handing over public records to a private, unaccountable website," said Matthew McFeeley, with the Natural Resources Defense Council.
"FracFocus does not meet basic standards for records management, and, in fact, its use hinders public access to information," he added.
Conservationists also have raised concerns about a possible component of the pending proposal that would refine last year's rule so that many provisions focus squarely on hydraulic fracturing, rather than more broadly applying to all "well stimulation" techniques.
That could leave out existing and future processes that might pose environmental risks, critics contend.
In an interview, Salazar acknowledged the drilling rule has moved on a slower timetable than he initially planned, but said that's because regulators are working to get it right.
"I think that when it does get done, it will stand the test of time and it will become a template for hydraulic fracturing," Salazar said.
In his committee testimony Thursday, Salazar insisted that the rules will not impede oil and natural gas development - responding to an often-voiced industry worry.

Martha Stewart vs. Real Women
Martha's way #1:
Stuff a miniature marshmallow in the bottom of a sugar cone to prevent ice cream drips.
The Real Women's Way:
Just suck the ice cream out of the bottom of the cone, for Pete's sake. You are probably lying on the couch, with your feet up, eating it anyway.
Martha's way #2:
To keep potatoes from budding, place an apple in the bag with the potatoes.
The Real Women's Way:
Buy Hungry Jack mashed potato mix and keep it in the pantry for up to a year.
Martha's way #3:
When a cake recipe calls for flouring the baking pan, use a bit of the dry cake mix instead and there won't be any white mess on the outside of the cake.
The Real Women's Way:
Go to the bakery. They'll even decorate it for you.
Martha's way #4:
If you accidentally over-salt a dish while it's still cooking, drop in a peeled potato and it will absorb the excess salt for an instant "fix me up."
The Real Women's Way:
If you over-salt a dish while you are cooking, that's too damn bad. Please recite with me, The Real Women's motto: I made it and you will eat it and I don't care how bad it tastes.
Martha's way #5:
Wrap celery in aluminum foil when putting in the refrigerator and it will keep for weeks.
The Real Women's Way:
What's celery?
Martha's way #6:
Brush some beaten egg white over pie crust before baking to yield beautiful glossy finish.
The Real Women's Way:
The Mrs. Smith frozen pie directions do not include brushing egg whites over the crust so I just don't do it.
Martha's way #7:
Cure for headaches: Take a lime, cut it in half and rub it on your forehead. The throbbing will go away.
The Real Women's Way:
Take a lime, mix it with tequila, etc., chill and drink. You might still have the headache, but who cares?
Martha's way #9:
If you have a problem opening jars: Try using latex dishwashing gloves. They give a non slip grip that makes opening jars easy.
The Real Women's Way:
Go ask the very cute neighbor to do it.
And finally the most important tip:
Martha's way #10:
Don't throw out all that leftover wine. Freeze into ice cubes for future use in casseroles and sauces.
The Real Women's Way:
Leftover wine??????

Keep the Martha stuff coming!
Hi Erma,
This perfectly delightful note is being sent on paper I made myself to tell you what I have been up to. Since it snowed last night, I got up early and made a sled with old barn wood and a glue gun. I hand painted it in gold leaf, got out my loom and made a blanket in peaches and mauves.
Then, to make the sled complete, I made a white horse to pull it from DNA that I had just sitting around in my craft room. By then, it was time to start making the place mats and napkins for my 20 breakfast guests. I'm serving the old standard Stewart twelve-course breakfast, but I'll let you in on a little secret: I didn't have time to make the tables and chairs this morning, so I used the ones I had on hand.
Before I moved the table into the dining room I decided to add just a touch of the holidays. So I repainted the room in pinks and stenciled gold stars on the ceiling.
While the homemade bread was rising, I took antique candle molds and made the dishes (exactly the same shade of pink) to use for breakfast. These were made from Hungarian clay, which you can get at almost any Hungarian craft store.
Well, I must run. I need to finish the hand-sewn buttonholes on the dress I'm wearing for breakfast. I'll get out the sled and drive this note to the post office as soon as the glue dries on the envelope I'll be making.
Hope my breakfast guests don't stay too long. I have 40,000 cranberries to string with bay leaves before my speaking engagement at noon. It's a goodthing.
Love, Martha
P.S. When I made the ribbon for this typewriter, I used 1/8-inch gold gauze. I soaked the gauze in a mixture of white grapes and blackberries which I grew, picked, and crushed last week just for fun.
Dear Martha:
I'm writing this on the back of an old shopping list. Pay no attention to the coffee and jelly stains. I'm 20 minutes late getting my daughter off for school, packing a lunch with one hand-on the phone with the dog pound, seems old Ruff needs bailing out again. Burnt my arm on the curling iron when I was trying to make those cute curly fries, how DO they do that? Still can't find the scissors to cut out some snowflakes, tried using an old disposable razor . . . trashed the tablecloth. Tried that cranberry thing; frozen cranberries mushed up after I defrosted them in the microwave. Oh, and don't use Fruity Pebbles as a substitute in that Rice Krispies snowball recipe unless you like food that resembles puke! Smoke alarm is going off, talk to ya later.
Love, Erma

Critical Essay by Robert Towers
There is nothing cool or throwaway in Alice Walker's attitude toward the materials of her fiction. The first book by this exceptionally productive novelist, poet, and short-story writer to come to my notice was Meridian (1976), an impassioned account of the spiritual progress of a young black woman, Meridian Hill, during the civil-rights struggle of the 1960s and its aftermath…. Though beset by serious structural problems and other lapses of craft, Meridian remains the most impressive fictional treatment of the "Movement" that I have yet read.
In The Color Purple Alice Walker moves backward in time, setting her story roughly (the chronology is kept vague) between 1916 and 1942—a period during which the post-Reconstruction settlement of black status remained almost unaltered in the Deep South. Drawing upon what must be maternal and grandmaternal accounts as well as upon her own...

2012 fall reading list: Green home edition
Although your trashy summer tomes ('Fifty Shades of Grey' included) officially have a couple of weeks left before retirement, here's a few standout green home and garden releases to add to your fall reading list.
Thu, Sep 06, 2012 at 03:57 PM
However much it may make you cringe, your friendly local librarian's favorite cheesy saying around this time of year, "now's the time to fall into a good book," couldn't be more true. Summertime beach reads may get all the hype but autumn — which arrives in just a couple of short weeks — is the perfect time to commit to literary pursuits: the light is less harsh, cozy throw blankets start to re-circulate around the house, and you can still comfortably read outdoors (just don't forget those extra layers). There's really nothing lovelier than sitting on a park bench with a pair of warm socks on your feet, a cup of hot apple cider in one hand, and a good book in the other.
Below you'll find a few forthcoming and newly released titles worth checking out (FYI, it's National Read a Book Day). It's an eclectic bunch, for sure — topics range from tree houses to small space decorating advice — with thoughtful text and pretty pictures in equal measure. And if you spent the entire summer shamelessly enveloped in the tawdry world of Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey, you may want to consider backtracking a tad to catch up with these notable summer releases. Is there a green home design/archiecture or gardening books that you're looking forward to sitting down with this fall?

The project (full name "Multi Arcade Machine Emulator") aims to faithfully reproduce the games using the original game data, while emulating the hardware on a general-purpose PC. MAME has spawned a sister project, MESS, which targets emulation of game consoles and old computers, and which shares significant portions of the MAME source code and uses the MAME distribution license. The MAME developers focus on accurate emulation so MAME can archive the arcade gaming era from the 1970s to the present. The source code also doubles as documentation for the hardware of these old systems. To date, MAME supports nearly 4,000 unique games. MAME updates roughly every couple of months, and sometimes has "in-between" releases that fix critical bugs. The program can be downloaded from the official website.

Screw City Beer Festival Sept. 10 in downtown Rockford
Staff Report
Craft beer lovers will have the chance to try some fresh brews when a new festival kicks off this fall. The Screw City Beer Festival hits the streets in the heart of Rockford featuring craft beer from local, regional and national breweries. The event will feature breweries from Michigan, Wisconsin, Massachusetts, Minnesota, Colorado, California and Oregon. More than 100 beers from 25 breweries will be served.
The event will be from 1 to 6 p.m., Saturday, Sept. 10. It will be centered at the intersection of State and Main streets in downtown Rockford, and will extend one block south and east.
Event organizer Aaron Sleger explained: "Beer festivals have been happening for years in the Chicago, Madison and Milwaukee areas to great success, and we thought there was every reason for Rockford to have one: great local restaurants, bars and retail shops that sell great craft beer, a local home brewers club and a local brewery. All these contribute to a very dedicated niche beer drinking market in Rockford.
"We hope that Screw City Beer Festival will gain the support of the community and become a valuable asset in not only getting people downtown, but getting people to come to Rockford for a day of quality, hand-crafted beer," Sleger added.
Only 1,500 tickets will be sold for this event. You must have a valid ID and be 21 years old or older to enter. General admission tickets are $25 and include a 5-ounce plastic pilsner tasting cup, event guide and 25 drink tickets. VIP tickets are $50 and include a 5-ounce tasting glass, VIP hour from noon to 1 p.m. with special releases, 30 drink tickets, event guide and Screw City Beer Festival T-shirt. VIP tickets must be purchased in advance and will not be available at the gate.
Designated drivers get into the festival for free. Tickets can be purchased online at http://screwcitybeerfest.com/ or at Kryptonite Music Lounge, Artale Wine Co., and The Olympic Tavern.
The name Screw City Beer Festival pays tribute to the region's storied industrial manufacturing history by incorporating Rockford's former role as the "Screw Capital" of the country. While this is the first year for the event, organizers believe it will grow on an annual basis and attract regional attention.

A Patient Seamstress
The comely lass looks at my son with a devilish smile
Lovely, so lovely, all eyes in the mall are on her
Yet she looks only at him; "Hello there"
"And hello to you he replies with a mischievious glance
"Such a pleasure to watch you grow up" I admire him as we walk
"Such a pleasure to grow up Dad" he says, grinning from ear to ear
Such cleverness, confidence, how did this come to be
At his age, so shy, I would have shaken the buckles off my boots
Sixteen years ago this peaceful loving boy left so suddenly
Sixteen years young, so young, too young, too soon
My firstborn, my only son; grief comes to visit
But now not quite so often, grief can be kind that way
I tell this story often, and another; about "the" tennis match
Tie breaker after tiebreaker so endless it seemed
The boy who hit the ball 1,000 miles an hour
The boy who could not be coached
The phone rang, "I won!" he yelled
I heard the smiles, the joy in his voice, in his laughter
"Who said I couldn't be coached?" he ribs me and chuckles
"And I'd have won Wimbledon, if I had listened Dad"
Little did he know that he had done just that
I see him holding the trophy, high in the air, and the crowd cheers
As I cheered when he told me how he won, the tiebreakers
I play with this same old racquet, his racquet, my son is with me
I ride his old bicycle and keep his heart near
Hold his artwork; pick it up again and again
I am so proud of my son, he is still my son
I am still his father, He is STILL, my son
Field of Dreams tell Ben and I how lucky we are
No old baggage, nothing unfinished
Nothing to mend except my heart
Grief is a patient seamstress

Employment is up; inflation is down; and, in what amounts to a transvaluation of values, success as a social ideal now commands prestige. Why repudiate the politics that have brought us to this felicity?

'Seinfeld' Cast to Reunite on 'Curb'
Jewish Journal has questions; Baltimore Sun has answers
Curb Your Enthusiasm will be even more meta than usual in its seventh season, when the real cast of Seinfeld reunites for a fictional Seinfeld reunion show organized by Larry David's HBO alter ego, Larry David. That means real-life comedian Jerry Seinfeld will play himself playing a slightly grayer version of his most famous character, Jerry Seinfeld. It also means, according to the Los Angeles Jewish Journal, that we'll be privy to fictional versions of the David-Seinfeld writing team's internal conversations about whether the last episode of Seinfeld was as bad as critics declared it, and if George Costanza getting married could ever be a plausible plot twist. The Journal hopes that among these pressing issues, the Seinfeld reunion plot arc—which stretches across the whole season of Curb—will address this "lingering question": "Why was the obviously Jewish Seinfeld never openly described as Jewish on the show?" Well, spoiler alert: in a Baltimore Sun interview today, David is asked that very question. His reply: despite the unmistakable Jewishness of the show, explicitly discussing such a thing is still verboten on network television. "The difference is that on Seinfeld, you did have a lot of people watching who did get offended by many of the things we did, because it was a network show. But the people who are watching Curb Your Enthusiasm on HBO, they're paying to watch this."

SPIN METER: Obama feigns disinterest in politics
WASHINGTON To hear the White House tell it, President Barack Obama has scant interest in politics as Republicans battle each other for the right to challenge him. But in reality, Obama is increasingly involved in his re-election, staying in regular contact with his campaign staff, raising money and evaluating Republican debate performances.
Throughout the White House, Obama's aides are knee-deep in the re-election business. There are daily conference calls between top aides in the White House and campaign staff at the Chicago re-election headquarters and close consultation on message and travel.
His pose of indifference allows Obama to try to position himself above the sometimes-ugly fray of the campaign, leaving the political back-and-forth to others as he focuses instead on the loftier work of governing. But as with any incumbent president seeking re-election, political concerns weigh heavily as the election approaches. It's just smarter politics, for now, to pretend otherwise.
"Presidents like to act like they're not paying attention to every little detail of every little thing, when I suspect they all do," said Ari Fleischer, press secretary under President George W. Bush. "The job requires you to act like you're above all the less important stuff of the world - especially if the less important stuff is the guy who wants to take your job."
White House press secretary Jay Carney said the president spends only about 5 percent of his time on the campaign, and there will be plenty of opportunity to get more involved once the election is closer. "Because he does not need to now, he is not engaging particularly aggressively in his re-election campaign. It's only January," Carney said this week.
But the president's schedule and sometimes even his own words paint another picture: a White House increasingly driven by politics.
On Wednesday, a day after GOP presidential hopeful Mitt Romney solidified his front-runner status with a win in the New Hampshire primary, Obama hosted a White House event on job creation - a way of countering Republicans' attacks on the president's economic stewardship. Similar White House counter-programming was on display last week, a day after the Iowa caucuses, when Obama announced he was going around congressional Republicans to appoint a new consumer protection chief.
And take travel, a good barometer of priorities because it requires that most precious commodity: the president's time. Of a half-dozen domestic day trips Obama made in November, December and so far in January, five were to politically important states both parties will be contesting this fall - North Carolina, Ohio, New Hampshire and, twice, Pennsylvania.
Obama also visited his hometown of Chicago Wednesday, but in reliably Democratic Illinois the president didn't bother with any official presidential events; he just dropped by his campaign headquarters and hit a few fundraisers before coming back to Washington.
Carney downplays politics as the motivation behind Obama's travel. "Every president ought to be able to travel everywhere in the country. It's part of his responsibility," the presidential spokesman said ahead of one Pennsylvania trip.

Institution of Marriage: Marriage is generally a union between a male and a female with a commitment so that they can pursue Dharma, Artha (possessions) and Kama (physical desires) together. It also joins two families. It is at once a gateway to earthly life of pleasure, progress, prosperity and joy as it is also an altar of elevation to a level of spiritual experience. So every society recognizes and controls it as it results in the procreation and nurture of future generation and thereby influences the social and cultural growth of society. According to Manusmriti or laws of Manu there are eight different types of Hindu marriages. Among the eight types all didn't have religious sanction. The last four were not religiously defined and were condemned. These are: Brahma Marriage, Daiva Marriage, Arsha Marriage, Prajapatya Marriage, Gandharva Marriage, Asura Marriage, Rakshasa Marriage, Paishacha Marriage.
1. Brahma Vivah: In Brahma marriage once the boy completes his Brahmacharya Ashram (student hood), he is eligible to get married. His parents then approaches the parents or guardian of a girl belonging to a good family and same Varna and ask them for the hand of their daughter for their son. The father of the girl also carefully chooses the bridegroom who is well versed in Vedas and of a noble character. This is how a Brahma marriage was arranged. There was no dowry system at that time, girl came with two garments and few ornaments only. According to Dharmashastras "Brahma Vivah" is the best marriage among all.
2. Daiva Vivah: If the girl is groomed with ornaments and married to a priest during a scarifies, it is called Daiva Vivah. In this type of marriage the girl's family wait for a reasonable period for a suitable man for their daughter but when nobody turns up they go looking for a groom in such places where a sacrifice is being conducted. According to the Dharmashastra, Daiva marriage is considered inferior to Brahma marriage because it is considered degrading for the womanhood to look for groom.
3. Arsha Vivah: In this type of marriage the bride presents a cow and a pair of bull to the guardian of girl. Marriages of this type used to happen because the parents of the bride couldn't afford the expense of their daughter's marriage at the right time according to the brahma rite. So the girl is married off to an old sage. The cows, which were taken in exchange of the bride shows that even the groom does not have any remarkable qualities. According to sastras noble marriages had no monetary or business transactions so this kind of marriages were not considered noble.
4. Prajapatya Vivah: In this type of marriage, the bride's father goes in search for a groom for his daughter. The protection of the bride or daughter is handed over by the father to the bridegroom during the Panigrahan ceremony or the acceptance of the bride's hands. The actual wedding ceremony takes place after Panigrahan.
5. Gandharva Vivah: However when a man and a woman marry with each others consent but may not have the consent of their family or are unable to involve them due to geographical reasons, then this wedding is called Gandharva Vivah or 'love marriage'. It is not considered a right kind of marriage as it is done against the will of the parents so it is inferior kind of marriage.
6. Asura Vivah: In the Asura type of marriage the groom is not at all suitable for the bride. In no way he is a match for the girl but the bridegroom willingly gives as much wealth as he can afford to the bride's parents and relatives. So the system of marriage is more like buying a product. In Arsha type cows are given in exchange for the bride but there is no compulsion like the Asura type. Even the groom is also not so rich and powerful like his counterpart in Asura type.
7. Rakshasa Vivah: If a bride is taken by force and then persuades her to marry. This is not considered as the right kind of marriage as you are forcing somebody to marry.
8. Paishacha Vivah: In this type the girl's wish is not considered whether she wants to marry or not instead she was force to marry and even the bride's family is also not given anything in cash or kind. Men would marry a woman, whom he had seduced while she was asleep, intoxicated or insane. This kind of marriage was later prohibited. It is considered as the most inferior type of marriage.
To the accompaniment of ceremonial mantras by the officiating priest the bride's parents welcome the groom by invoking God's blessings and then offering the bridegroom a nutritious drink called Madhuparka. This is called the Madhuparka Ceremony, the origin of which dates back thousands of years when Rishis and sages of India used it as a way of welcoming guests.
The Bridegroom shall stand facing the east. The Bride shall stand facing the north. The bride (offering the seat or Asana, shall address the bridegroom as follows:
The bride: AUM, The noble one may accept and take the seat.
The bridegroom: AUM, I am taking my seat. (ॐ प्रातिग्रहनामी)
The bride shall take her seat to the right of the bridegroom. The bridegroom performs the Achamana and Angasparsha with water.
All Hindu religious ceremonies begin with two observances, namely Achaman or sipping a small quantity of water and angasparsha or touching one's limbs with one's right hand middle two fingers with a little water. Achaman is purificatory and conducive to peaceful attitude of mind. Angasparsha is intended to pray for physical strength and alertness. Achaman and Angasparsha are performed with the aid of Mantras.
The bridegroom says:
May the breeze be sweet as honey; may the streams flow full of honey and may the herbs and plants be laden with honey for us!
May the nights be honey-sweet for us; may the mornings be honey-sweet for us and may the heavens be honey-sweet for us!
May the plants be honey-sweet for us; may the sun be all honey for us and may the cows yield us honey-sweet milk!
"Honey-sweet", in this case, means pleasant, advantageous, and conducive to happiness. The bridegroom shall pour out the Madhuparka into three cups and then partake a little of it from each of the cups reciting the following Mantra:
The bridegroom: The honey is the sweetest and the best. May I have food as sweet and health-giving as this honey and may I be able to relish it!
The father of the bride, offering to the bridegroom the present of a cow, a finger-ring or some other suitable article says:
The father of the bride: AUM, (Please) accept these presents.
The bridegroom: AUM, I accept (these presents).
The father of the bride, placing her right hand on the right hand of the bridegroom, says:
The father of the bride: Be pleased to accept hand of my daughter (name of the bride) of the Gotra (here the surname of the family).
The bridegroom: AUM, I do accept.
The bridegroom makes an Offering of the garment and the scarf to the bride to wear. The bridegroom wears the garments and the scarf offered by the parents of the bride. Then facing each other The bride and the bridegroom speak as follows:
Ye learned people assembled at this sacred ceremony know it for certain that we two hereby accept each other as companions for life and agree to live together most cordially as husband and wife. May the hearts of us both be blended and beat in unison. May we love each other like the very breath of our lives. As the all-pervading God sustains the universe, so may we sustain each other. As a preceptor loves his disciple, so may we love each other steadfastly and faithfully. - RigVeda X.85.47
Addressing the bride, the bridegroom says:
Distant though we were, one from the other, we stand now united. May we be of one mind and spirit! Through the grace of God, may the eyes radiate benevolence. Be thou my shield. May thou have a cheerful heart and a smiling face. May thou be a true devotee of God and mother of heroes. May thou have at heart the welfare of all living beings! - Rig Veda X.85.44
The bride:
I pray that henceforth I may follow thy path. May my body be free from disease and defect and may I ever enjoy the bliss of your companionship!
The Achaman and Angasparsha are performed for the second time. The bride also participates.
The three Achaman mantras involve sipping of a little water three times.
The seven Angasparsha mantras involve touching water with the right hand middle two fingers apply the water to various limbs first to the right side and then the left side as follows:
I clasp thy hand and enter into the holy state of matrimony so that we may be blessed with prosperity and noble progeny. Mayst thou live with me happily throughout life! Through the grace of the all-mighty Lord, who is the Creator and Sustainer of the universe and in the presence of this august assemblage, thou art being given away in marriage so that we may together rightly perform our duties as householders.
With all my strength and resources, I have clasped thy hand; and thus united, we shall together follow the path of virtue. Thou art my lawfully wedded wife and I am thy lawfully wedded husband. God, the protector and sustainer of all, has given thee to me. From today, it devolves upon me to protect and maintain thee. Blessed with children, mayst thou live happily with me as thy husband for the full span of human life (a hundred years).
Following the divine law and the words of wisdom uttered by the sages, may we make a good couple and may God vouchsafe unto us a shining life of virtue and happiness.
As God nourishes and sustains all creatures through His great forces like the sun, the moon, the earth, the air etc., so may He bless my wife with healthy and virtuous progeny and may you all assembled here bless her!
- I accept thee as my partner for life.
- I will not keep away even mentally anything from thee.
- I will share with thee all I enjoy.
- We will persevere in the path of virtue, surmounting all obstacles.
The bridegroom taking the palm of the bride into his hand helps her to rise and then they both shall walk round the altar, the bride leading. Then facing the east take the solemn vows:
The bridegroom:
O virtuous one! I have accepted thee thoughtfully and so hast thou accepted me. Out of the fullness of love have I accepted thee and so hast thou accepted me. I am the Sama and thou art the Rik. I am the Dyau (heaven) and thou art the earth. We marry each other joyously. May we be blessed with bright, heroic and long-lived children!The bride and the bridegroom:
Let us be devoted to each other. Let us share each other's joys and sorrows, wish each other well and look upon each other with love and live for at least a hundred years. May we live happily for at least a hundred years. May we live, listening to sweet words for at least a hundred years.
The bride places her right foot on the slab (stone), assisted by her mother or her brother. The priest recites a Mantra from the Atharva Veda (AV II.13.4)
The bride:
- I adore God, the unifier of hearts. Now that I am leaving my parents' home for my husband's, I pray that He may keep us perpetually united!
- With these offerings I pray for Long life for my husband and for the prosperity of all our relations!
- (Addressing her husband) In making these offerings for your prosperity I once again pray that God may bless this union of our hearts!
In the first three rounds the bridegroom leads the bride as they circle together around the sacred fire. In the fourth (last) round, the bride leads the bridegroom around the sacred fire.
In each round around the sacred fire, an appropriate mantra is recited which expresses noble sentiments in relation to their future matrimonial life. Each round culminates in both the bride and the bridegroom placing offerings or ahutis of fried rice in the sacred fire. The Hindu religion emphasises enjoyment of life as well as the discharging of family, social and national responsibilities.
During the first three rounds, God's blessings and help are sought; loyalty to each other is emphasised and; a promise to keep in mind the well-being and care of the future children is made.
In the fourth (last) round (led by the bride) the bride promises that she will lead her life according to the tenets of the Hindu religion, namely Satya and Dharma or Truth and devotion to duty, and that she will always ensure that the bridegroom can rely on her to carry out her family, religious and household duties.
The bridegroom then places his hand on the bride's head and states that henceforth she will be his wife and he will shield her against any danger or harm.
At the end of the four rounds they shall exchange seats, the bride taking her seat to the left of the bridegroom.
Besides a religious meaning behind the seven steps, there is also a mathematical rationale on performing the 7 rounds circling the fire. A circle is 360 degrees, all the numbers between 1 and 9 divides 360 except the number 7. It becomes a non-terminating number, hence symbolizing the marriage as indivisible.
The ends of their garments (the bridegroom's scarf and upper garment of the bride) are tied together by the priest (signifying marriage knot).Then both shall stand facing the north. The bridegroom shall place his right hand upon the right shoulder of the bride.
They shall take the first step in the north easterly direction.
In taking these seven steps, the right foot shall always lead and the left foot be brought forward in line with it. Uncooked grains of rice (about a small handful) are placed in a line at equal distance at seven places. The bride and the groom take seven steps together, stepping upon first mound of rice with the right foot as the priest recites a mantra. Then stepping upon the second mount of rice with the right foot as the priest recites a mantra. (All seven steps are done the same way).
The bridegroom says:
Having completed the seven steps, be thou my life long companion. Mayst thou be my associate and helper in successful performance of the duties that now devolve upon me as a householder. May we be blessed with many children who may live the full duration of human life!
After the completion of the seven steps ceremony, the couple (with knots tied to each other) take their seats. The wife now takes her rightful place on the left side of her husband as the marriage is now religiously solemnized in its entirety. Now the couple are husband and wife. The husband garlands the wife and she in turn garlands her husband.
The bride and the bridegroom together pray:
O God, who art the illuminator of the sun, may we, through thy grace live for a hundred years, hear for a hundred years, and speak for a hundred years. And may we never be dependent upon anybody. May we likewise live even beyond a hundred years! -Rig Veda, VII. 66. 16)
May I have hearty co-operation from these in the performance of my duties. May thou be of one mind with me. May thou be consentient to my speech. May the Lord of creation unite thee to me!
The bride:
May I have hearty co-operation from these in the performance of my duties. May thou be of one mind with me. May thou be consentient to my speech. May the Lord of creation unite thee to me!
The bride:
Just as the star Arundhati is attached to the star Vasishtha, so may I be ever firmly attached to my husband! Placing his hand upon the bride's forehead
The bridegroom:
As the heavens are permanently stable, as the earth is permanently stable, as these mountains are permanently stable, and as the entire universe is permanent stable, so may my wife be permanently settled in our family! -Rig Veda X.173.4
(Addressing the bride): Thou are the Pole star; I see in thee stability and firmness. Mayst thou ever be steadfast in thy affection for me. The great God has united thee with me. Mayst thou live with me, blessed with children, for a hundred years!
Ye men and women present here, behold this virtuous bride possessed of high attainments, and before ye disperse, give her your blessings! All the people present shall pronounce the following blessings upon the couple.
- O Lord, may this couple be prosperous!
- O Lord, may this couple live in perpetual happiness!
- O Lord, may this couple be ever infused with love for each other. May this couple be blessed with children and grandchildren and live in the best of homes for the full period of their lives!
- May you two live here together. May you never be parted. May you enjoy the full span of human life in the delightful company of your happy sons and grandsons!
Om Shantih, Shantih, Shantih.
The Hindu wedding ceremony may vary in minor details from region to region and different priests may adopt some variations.

With their sixth and final selection of the 2011 NHL Entry Draft, the Los Angeles Kings have selected Michael Schumacher 200th overall, who is yet another left winger. Schumacher is out of Sweden where he played for the country's top junior team, Superelit.
At 6'3, 198 pounds, Schumacher is definitely the biggest physically of the six prospects of the Kings drafted today. With Superelit, Schumacher played 22 games and also played for Frolunda HC last season, where he had four goals and three assists.
Congratulations to Michael Schumacher!

Approaching With Your Partner In Doubles

Another question came up in my doubles drill class yesterday.
We had four students and a pro, doing a drill. Two students on either side of the net, everyone at the baseline. Pro fed a short ball (no man's land) to one student. She was supposed to treat it as an approach shot and then play out the point.
I was pretty confused about what I was supposed to be doing when my partner was hitting that ball. Was I supposed to basically just stay with her so we were both at the same distance from the net (leaving me in no-man's land should she stop before reaching the service line)? Was I supposed to just scurry on up to first volley position (a step or two back from the middle of the service box)? Was I supposed to go only as far as the service line?
The other thing I was unsure about was what I was supposed to do when I was hitting the short ball fed to me. I think I'm supposed to come in behind my shot, shading in that direction, my distance from the net depending on how good my shot is. My instinct was to say "Approach!" as I was getting ready to hit and then, you know, approach in the hope that my partner will come with me. Is this a bad idea because it clues the opponent that I'm coming to net?
Also, if I am playing doubles and my partner gets a short ball, should I say "approach," indicating to her that she should hit an approach and come in? Or is that her decision? I tend to say "Approach" when I plan to come in behind an approach shot, but my partners tend not to move forward with me. Which makes me think I'm doing the whole thing wrong.
Even if they get the approach shot on the service line, your partner should continue toward the net after their shot. Which means you can follow and not have to end up in no-man's land.
The only time I wont move up with my partner is when I have someone who decides to freelance all on their own and Im not sure what sort of area they are going to cover or where they are even going with their shot. (obviously I dont know my partner all that well in that case)
Of if my partner is someone of limited mobility who cant cover a lot of area at the net, then I may stay back because I dont want to open up too many holes for easy put away opportunitys.
As far as telling your partner to "approach", if they dont know to do that already, I doubt shouting instructions to them while the point is in play is that helpful. That's something you should talk about outside of the point, or figure out on your own what you think your partner is capable of.

Click here for tour details, schedule and pricing
I took this cooking class while traveling alone in Italy. I love to cook and what better way to meet other people. Chef Louisa was wonderful, funny and very supportive of our efforts as was her assistant Cynzia. We cooked an authentic Tuscan meal from antipasti to dolce. It was amazing and delicious. I would definitely recommend this to others. Thank you!
Fabulous time with 8 different students. Recipes were great and everyone participated. Chef was great and dinner with red wine was wonderful. I will cook these recipes when I get home!
This was a fantastic evening. Our chefs and hosts Claudio and Fernando were great fun and very professional. It as the best meal we had in Siena!
This tour was the best part of our trip! The instructors were great, the food amazing, and the group was so much fun. I would highly recommend doing this class!
Kelly and I thoroughly this class with 4 others! We spent 5 hours with Lella, her assistant, and interpreter, all who love cooking. It was fun and comfortable as Lella led us through the steps to make a gourmet meal. We learned so much! It was exciting to be a part of this and to bring back the recipes we had made. We all got to help in making the parts of the meal and then enjoyed the meal with each other and Lella's special wine! What a great memory!! Lella is a treasure.
Great class with lots of helpful information and the food was sensational. Would have been better if everyone got to cook everything.

Hot capacitor?
Went to an intermittent no cool call today and came across a capacitor rated for 55/5/440 that tested 54/4.8 so well within specs. It was very hot to the touch which I have never seen before. Do they get hot before swelling up? Replaced it to be safe and the system is working fine now, well fine as it can with a .85 static on a system that lists max external static .5".
Swelling is usually from over heating. The oil boils/expands and bugles the housing.
Thanks beenthere. Did not know that.
Did you check the voltage and amps draw of the compressor? I always do that when changing caps so I don't get callbacks and da Boss saying why didn't you do that. :wink:
Sure did yuri. Fan and compressor amps,voltage,capacitor reading,pressures,SH,SC,return temp and supply temp go on every ticket.

FDA and Depakote Birth Injury Resources Warn of Increased Risk of Birth Defects in Babies Exposed to Valproate Sodium During Pregnancy
The US Food and Drug Administration has issued a warning to health care professionals and patients about the potential increased risk of birth injuries and birth defects when valproate sodium and related products (e.g. Depacon, Depakote or Stavzor) are used by mothers during pregnancy. Depakote Birth Injury Resources (DepakoteBirthInjury.com) offers information and resources about the possible side effects of valproate sodium, including neural tube malformations, craniofacial defects and cardiovascular malformations.
(PRWEB) December 3, 2010
The Federal Drug Administration has officially notified health care professionals and patients about the increased risk of major birth defects and birth injuries in babies exposed to valproate sodium, and the related product Depakote, during pregnancy. Valproate sodium is manufactured by Abbot Laboratories under the name Depakote and is used to treat severe migraines, epilepsy, manic bipolar episodes and other seizure disorders. (For more information on the FDA warning, visit the FDA's MedWatch Safety Alerts: http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm196683.htm .)
Depakote Birth Injury Resources (DBIR) provides resources and information on the side effects, birth defects and birth injuries related to the use of Depakote and other valproate sodium products during pregnancy. DBIR and the related website DepakoteBirthInjury.com also provides legal resources and consultation for mothers who have used Depakote or related products during pregnancy.
Depakote has been approved for use in the United States several times by the FDA, this first of which was in 1983 for the treatment of epilepsy. In May of 1995, Depakote was approved for use in treatment of the manic phase of bipolar disorder. Less than one year later, Depakote was approved for use in the reduction of the number of migraine headaches suffered by patients. Finally, in December of 2002, the FDA approved the use of Depakote ER for use as an adjunctive therapy for adults with epileptic seizures. Depakote has also been used for a variety of off-label treatments, including the treatment of schizophrenia.
Valproate sodium products are marketed under the following brand names:
- Depacon (valproate sodium)
- Depakote, Depakote CP, Depakote ER, Depakote Sprinkles (dilvalproex sodium)
- Depakene (valproic acid)
- Stavzor (valproic acid)
The FDA warning centers around the risk of neural tube defects (defects of the brain and spinal cord) and other major birth defects, such as craniofacial defects (clef palate or abnormally formed face and skull) and cardiovascular malformations (abnormally formed heart or blood vessels) in babies exposed to valproate sodium and related products during pregnancy. ("Birth Defects Related to Depakote and Related Products" http://www.fda.gov/ForConsumers/ConsumerUpdates/ucm196683.htm )
Patients are advised to consult the medication guide for valproate that is provided with each prescription and describes in detail the benefits valproate sodium side effects and encourages patients to discuss option with their health care provider.
FDA Guidelines and Recommendations for Depakote use:
- Women who are planning a pregnancy or who become pregnant while taking valproate sodium or
Depakote should contact their health care professionals immediately.
- Valproate should not be stopped without talking to a health care professional, even in pregnant
women. Stopping valproate suddenly can cause serious problems.
- Women who may bear children should only use valproate if it is necessary to manage their medical
condition. Talk to your health care professional about the risks and options should you use a
valproate product and become pregnant.
- Women who use valproate sodium or Depakote and are not planning to get pregnant should use
effective birth control.
- Pregnant women who use valproate or other drugs to treat epilepsy should consider enrolling in the
North American Antiepileptic Drug Pregnancy Registry by calling 888-233-2334 or visiting
Depakote has been assigned to pregnancy category D by the FDA. Category D drugs are associated with positive evidence of human fetal risk based on adverse reaction data from investigational or marketing experience or studies in humans (http://depts.washington.edu/druginfo/Formulary/Pregnancy.pdf). However there may still be some instances where the benefits of use to the mother outweigh the fetal risk.
Any person who is currently taking Depakote or who took Depakote during pregnancy and experienced side effects or birth defects and injury in their child is advised to seek consultation. For more information about the serious side effects of Depakote drug use, Depakote birth injury information or for Depakote birth defect resources, visit DepakoteBirthInjury.com.

DK tried out innovative methods to lift district from lowly 26 position
SSLC examinations began on Friday amid high hopes of bringing back the lost glory of Dakshina Kannada. The district, which was ranked seventh in 2012, slipped to the 26 position in 2013. After widespread criticism of the Education Department, several measures were announced to reverse the trend. In earlier years the district had fared much better.
On Friday, 31,465 of the 32,138 students wrote the first language paper — English, Kannada, Sanskrit and Urdu. As many as 673 students did not turn up.Teachers worked hard
School teachers exuded confidence that this year the results would be better. "We have done our work. It is now left to the way students perform," said Vinni D'Souza, Hindi teacher of Government Secondary School in Badaga Yekkur, an old government school in the district, reflecting the effort put in by teachers in improving the performance of students. Ms. D'Souza said teachers were working with underperforming and average students since January.
Dhanalakshmi, Headmaster of Government Upgraded Secondary School in Mullarkadu that started two years ago, said students were made to study in groups with each having average and good performing students.
These groups were given tasks each day and they had to place it during first two hours on each day of the school since February. After school hours, all seven teachers in the school stayed back till 6 p.m. to adsolve problems faced by students, especially the average students. About 80 per cent of the students passed the examination last year.
Lakshman Kudwal, a teacher from Government Secondary School, Kotekar, said his school roped in teachers from better-performing schools to conduct sessions. He said students were also told of way to answer some of the questions. "Difference in the way papers are evaluated by teachers here and those from other places is also a reason for below par performance," Mr. Kudwal said.
Block Education Officer (Mangalore South) K. Sudhakara said teachers had put in their best. "More than students, we are eager to see the outcome," he said. This will be the last of the examination in the present syllabus. It will be revised from next year.
