Does anyone else feel like they spend all their time shopping and cooking? Any idea how to alleviate this? I am a stay at home mom and still an't spend so much time cooking....Advice?
A couple of suggestions...
1. Feel free to cook meals that are similar to what you are accustomed to preparing, only "veganized." For example: * Instead of pasta with meat sauce, make pasta with vegetable marinara sauce. * Instead of meat tacos, make black bean tacos. * Instead of cereal with milk, try cereal with almond milk.
2. Try cooking in large batches once or twice a week. * Make a very large pot of chili. You can change up the presentation throughout the week by serving different sides - side salad, side cornbread, served over potatoes, etc. * Make a large pot of beans and rice to which you can vary throughout the week with different spices. Add curry for an Indian dish; add chili powder for a Mexican meal; add tarragon for a "sweet" twist.* Make a dozen veggie burgers and freeze for future convenience.

Hi Keri!
Susan has some great suggestios for you - of course!
And I want to reassure you, it's just like anything new, at first it takes a lot of attention yet once you get some new habits formed it will be easier than before!
Here are some of my practices, things that help me make sure I've got what I need to eat on hand - critical to success!
- cook big batches of brown rice (or any other whole grain mixture)in the rice cooker and store in the fridge
- cook big batches of potatoes and sweet potatoes for same
- grab sevaral bags of prepared greens (spinach) and romaine heads in a bag for easy rinsing
- have several pounds of big carrots in the fridge - grab on, a quick peel, and you've got another veg in your day. Same with heads of cabbage!
- I cook big batches of lentil soup in the pressure cooker 2 - 3 times a week so it's all there ready for lunch or any other time. Here's my quick recipe:
The video isn't playing right for some reason today but you can see it a YT here:
Best thing is just to have lots of food available and cook in big batches on the weekends or whenever you have time - so you are prepared. What you have is what you'll eat.
Welcome, it will get easier!
Lani Muelrath, M.A. CGFI, CPBN Fit Quickies: The Plant-Based Fitness Book
In addition to those suggestions, here are a couple I thought of and use:
* Cook large batches of beans and once they are drained, freeze them in freezer bags (flat to save space)
* Use left over dinner servings for lunches the next day
* Look ahead at what you are going to make for the next few days and do a lot of your chopping "prep" work ahead of time. I do this for a few hours on my day off so I'm ready to just toss things into a pan or a pot.
And like Lani said, this will take time to get used to but don't give up! You'll be spending slightly more time in the kitchen but the benefits for doing so will always outweigh that!
- AmandaBe the change you wish to see in the world...
I agree with Keri I spent all day in the kitchen making lunch never did get around to cooking dinner
Sorry I cant find anyway to delete this. Same with the one below
I did the same thing the first time I did Kickstart. I think the key is to substitute simple, easy dishes for some of the published recipes. Don't sweat the fancy breakfast and lunch items, use oatmeal, veggie burgers, etc. on some days. Then try recipes that look good and that you can double for future use. I've settled on several favorites and am always on the lookout for something new, just don't kill myself in the kitchen trying too many things at once!
I cant find some of the ingredients either. No stores around me carry fenugreek seed or berbre curry. I instead made the morocan sweet potato stew and had to play around with that because I didn't have all the spices and such.
I try and cook in bulk. The other day when I made the soup, I made a triple batch. That way there was enough for everyone in the family and enough leftovers for me to have it today.
At the weekend I made a HUGE batch of the hummus, because it makes a great snack for the kids when they are hungry. So, I already had that in the fridge for today's lunch.
Tonight when I make the stew, I'll make a huge batch that will last a couple of days.
Also, I make substitutions. Instead of making white beans one day and black beans another day, I just made a HUGE batch of black beans and I'm using those in the recipes that call for beans until they are gone.
Also, I'm gluten free. For today's lunch I used a brown rice tortilla instead of a wheat tortilla. I used brown rice instead of orzo in the soup the other day.
So far, so good. I'm sticking with it, and use simple substitutions as necessary.
We generally do large batches of certain things. For instance, when we cook beans to make chili, we make double (or more) of the beans. Stored in the fridge (or freezer) in single can sized portions (approx 2 cups), it's ready for fast add ins for other things. With the beans already cooked, a simple meal of beans, rice, canned tomato (diced or crushed depending on how chunky we want it), and spices and dinner is done in 30 minutes or less. Lunches are almost always leftovers from prior dinners (just smaller portions usually with a piece of fruit or something on the side). My hubby (the at-home parent) has a reminder timer set on his iPhone to start cooking at 5 pm. I get home at 5:30 and he usually is just about done with dinner cooking. We don't do the breakfast and lunches per the kickstart - as I said, we do leftovers for most lunches and breakfast is usually the same thing every day (easier not having to think in the morning! ) BTW oatmeal can be made in many rice cookers (if you've got one), or a big pot can be made once and then portioned out and reheated over the course of several days. And, you can do it muesli-style by soaking the oats with dried fruit and plant milk overnight then heating in the morning very quickly and adding finishing touches (like a dab of cinnamon) or it can be eaten cold for a refreshing warm weather breakfast.Also, we find that having a menu for the week is helpful - that way we know "okay we're having chili on Monday, how about stir fry on Tuesday and make extra rice and cut up extra veggies, then have rice and chili mixed on Wednesday, use the cut up veg on Thursday for soup, something simple like pancakes on Friday" Or, we might use the leftover chili with pasta or on top of baked potatoes. And, if we're having chili, we've got beans cooked and ready so we can throw beans into the soup too (to add extra protein to the meal). Weekends are usually for using up leftovers and generally nibbling rather than sit down meals anyhow, so having components (rice, beans, potatoes, etc) on hand, they can be mix and matched.Oh, yeah, that's something we learned back in the first or second kickstart (as we were learning vegan cooking and menu planning) is to look at things not as "meals" but as components or ingredients. Instead of seeing "vegetable stir fry" as a single meal, look at it as "cooked rice, chopped vegetables, vegetable stock, protein (quinoa, lentils, beans, etc)" That way, once you've got each dinner broken down into components, you can see "oh if I cook double rice on Monday, when I'm cooking rice anyhow; and chop double carrots, celery, onions on Wednesday when I'm making stir fry; then I've got 80% of the work done for making vegetable soup with rice on Friday" For that matter, my 14 yr old son will re-heat some rice with almond milk, raisins, and cinnamon for a warm breakfast that's a change from oatmeal or cold cereal.--DebR
I'm confused the kickstart menu isn't what we should be doing? I thouht we were suppose to use the 3 week menu. So basically I can throw anything together as long as it's meatless and dairyfree. I'm on day 2 of this and following the menu cause I have no idea how to do this.

Not exactly. If you've never cooked vegan meals, then the kickstart menu is a good way to learn how to balance foods in a healthy way. White flour pasta with tomato sauce and margarine is vegan (provided the margarine is vegan) but it's not necessarily the healthiest option and runs low on protein, fiber, and other nutrients. It is possible to be an unhealthy vegan. A more "kickstart" style option would be whole grain pasta with spinach, mushrooms, and cannelini beans in a tomato herb sauce. See the difference? More fiber, more protein, more vegetables.
But, if you don't have, can't find, can't afford, are allergic to, or plain don't like some of the foods, then switch it out for something else. Use the menu as a guideline - there's typically a whole grain, a bean/legume of some sort (lentils maybe), a leafy green vegetable and assorted other veggies (when looking at the dinners generally) - go colorful! Then add seasonings - Italian, Asian (Thai, Chinese, Japanese, etc), Middle Eastern, North African, whatever you like. The kickstart menu is a great way to get ideas on using new ingredients, new spices, new ways of cooking and combining, even for those folks who have been vegan for a while.
Ok Thanks. Wish I would of came here before I went to 2 grocery stores and spent a bunch of money
I'm a huge fan of cooking and work from home so can. But even i was surprised with the amount of preparation that was required for the food plan. Especially all the different condiments like roasted pepper bean spread for sandwiches. If i am going to follow the plan (which i am when it sounds especially good but won't if i am bored with being told what to cook or don't have the time) i have to make all these condiments myself as I live in a very small town with limited options at the grocery store.
Im guessing that whoever wrote the meal plan wanted something that was very gourmet and delicious that it would win people over to veganism! So i'm not critisising it because i think that is a very good idea. I'm glad i have the cooking skills that i don't really need recipes to do this and enjoy the challenge of veganising everything and the different way of thinking that is often required.I have even got batches of homemade vegan cheese in the fridge and make my own plant milks and pates from the leftover solids.
I think cooking to recipes costs too much in general. Vegan or not so have never really done it. I use recipes as inspirations rather than instructions. I have a very well stocked pantry and fridge at all times an like to buy seasonal and what is cheap. So even for things like beans which are cheap it is better for me to use what i have already than to buy something especially for a recipe. i of course always have beans, but maybe not the variety in a particular recipe (especially being in Australia. Sadly we do not have a lot of access to all the varieties that seem to be in the US like black beans, black eyed peas and pinto beans. I can get chickpeas, kidney beans, cannelloni beans and lentils and that's it). I tried growing some of my own blackbeans but they didn't go very well unfortunately.
I wonder if perhaps in future for people without cooking skills and or less time a list of ideas could be provided in addition to the gourmet menu. I guess that kind of of thing is already in the book which i did read. But it wouldn't take long. And it would save all your lovely forum moderators having to list the same ideas for people who struggle with the meal plan but don't have the confidence to chose their own meals.
Thank you all for the information! I was freaking out a little.
So how do you know if what you are eating is "healthy vegan"? Today I had oatmeal, frozen Indian food (vegan) meal, and I made a chili cornbread casserole. Oh and an apple for snack. Is that too much, too little? My goal is to eat healthy, lose weight (100lbs) and change my lifestyle.
FYI, so glad to have found all of you. So helpful!!
I LOVE the idea of the soup! I do not have a pressure cooker and I just bought regular lentils - how do I adapt that? Keep in mind I am just learning how to cook!
Thank you!!
Keri, I'm smiling because I started this way of eating three days after watching FoKs. I cleaned out everything (well I did find a few sleepers down the road) and gave it all away. Since I had just stocked my pantry and fridge that was kind of an expensive endeavor - but I just couldn't eat it anymore. There are times that a little knowledge really forces you to examine your principles and integrity.
I have never been a major "chef" type of cook and I felt exactly like you. I started with a lot of canned beans and used transition foods until I started getting my bearings a little bit. I used things like tofurky pizza, the "chicken nuggets", and vegan hot dogs. Now that I have been eating this way for three months I am doing many of the things others have suggested. Rice cooker, beans soaked, cooked, and frozen. It does get easier as you learn what you and your family enjoys. I still haven't gotten homemade hummus down yet but it is getting closer - who knew I would even be eating hummus let alone attempting to make it from scratch (I didn't know I should add a liquid so I ended up with bean glue.
I'm learning how to experiment with spices and things are beginning to taste a little different when I try new things. I read somewhere you needed to try something 16 times in order to learn to like it (I guess i'll have to try tofu a few more times.
Some things I've learned to do as I went along. Every Sunday I cut up veggies, cover them in water and place them in the fridge which keeps them for the entire week. I always cook up a six quart crockpot with vegan chilli or homemade vegitable soap for dinner on Sunday and lunches for most of the week. I try to soak a different type of bean every weekend and freeze them as others have suggested.
The main thing is to have fun and enjoy what you are learning and just try a couple of new things every week. You can do it and it really will get earier. Hang in there and don't give up!
Well, I can relate to the new Kickstarters because I did the same thing the first time - went out and bought everything. As everyone has said, it's best to look ahead a few days, get that, prepare enough of the veggies that are repeated in 2 or 3 recipes. I like having leftovers and don't mind having last night's dinner for lunch. Also, my family consists of 2 following the meal plan and 2 following the average American diet. I'd love to get rid of all the junk.... I'd be ecstatic! Have never been able to have that ideal situation. I try to keep my foods grouped together in the pantry as much as possible.

I make homemade hummus ALL the time. We use it as a dressing for a Kale salad.
Hummus1 can garbanzo beans (1 1/2 cups cooked dry beans)2-3 garlic cloves (to taste)1/4 cup lemon juice1 Tbsp low sodium Tamari or low sodium Soy Sauce3 Tbsp waterBlend
If you want a thicker consistency and don't mind the fat, add 1-2 Tbsp Tahini (Tahini is traditionally in hummus, I leave it out to make my hummus low fat.)
For those that are curious...,
Kale Salad1 large head of Kale, remove tough stems and tear into bite size pieces1 batch of hummus8-10 chopped dates (or pick any fruit, mango works well)1/4-1/2 cup chopped walnuts1-2 carrots, shreddedPut it all in a bowl, roll up your sleeves and massage the dressing into the Kale for at least 2 minutes. YUM!

At the retail level people are avoiding windows 8 machines because of the hostile user interface,
Way too harsh. C'mon. When consumers look at it, it's cool and colorful and then, they can't do anything. I mean, do you know how much of a difference it would make if there were an official Facebook app pre-loaded? Dedicated apps are faster to access and perform better, and are just more fun to use than a browser for this sort of thing.
Why didn't Microsoft make sure there was a plethora of games by porting all of their Microsoft Studios XBLA games to Modern UI? On type of app that is always run full screen regardless of the UI, is games.
Microsoft isn't stupid, they know all that's missing or not fully functioning. They're just determined to try to force people to accept what they want to do like it or not, fully functioning or not. You might be able to bully competitors, but you can't bully consumers. Especially in a bad economy. Thank goodness the plumbing for the desktop OS and the Server and Server Apps are AAA+
Now more than ever, consumers who are not pleased need to tell Microsoft what they want/need in Windows 8.

Background: Financial services is one of the largest industries in Canada, and 90% of it is controlled by the "Big 5″ Canadian banks. Despite a myriad of products and services, it mostly boils down to taking consumer deposits on one hand, and then lending to consumers on the other.
CommunityLend is the most important new venture in Canadian Financial Services today because it takes aim at this core business model with something disruptive. It's not about payment processing (like PayPal, ZoomPass), or mortgage lead generation (like LendingTree), but something larger still. CommunityLend is a disruptive new model for borrowing and lending. (Check out the site!)
After 3 years as an enthusiastic advisor, I joined CommunityLend full-time as CTO in August this year. I'll humbly include my joining in this year's list of milestones:
- Publicly launched the consumer P2P loan marketplace. (Only in Ontario & Quebec.) 7 other companies have tried, such as ioucentral, but CommunityLend is the only company with the regulatory approval to operate an online loan marketplace like this.
- Tim Gleeson joined as CCO. Tremendous background as a Portfolio Manager at Mackenzie and as founder of a asset management firm.
- Announced partnership with Strength Finance, our first major channel partnership.
- John Philip Green joined as CTO.
- Added British Columbia. Increases availability to 73% of Canadians.
- Paul Sehr joined as Director of Engineering. Paul is a fantastic engineer with good product sensibilities. We are really lucky to have him.
- Casper Wong joined as Director of Operations & Business Development. I love working with this guy. Great experience from easyHome and BMO.
- Beta launched FinanceIt.ca Sales Financing platform. For more, see this great FinanceIt.ca strategy analysis by WiseClerk.
- Launched a major partnership with AutoTrader.ca, which has over $3B in private auto listings per year.
- Closing the year out with over $7M in loan demand.
- Already over $12M of committed investor capital to deploy into consumer loans in 2011.
This was an important year of groundwork. In 2011 we will really start disrupt the financial services industry.

In Toklo aud lu other large centres of popula¬ tion all the uew business houses ar-) built ou European plaus. They are found to be more prnclicablo.

The world over, except where recognizable, nnd whut might be called nrtifidal causes interfere, fhe male and feuinle elements of the populallou aro about equal. At first sight, perhaps, fills mny not seem at all remarkable. But it Is to be rcmonibi'ied that lu many fanillles —Inrge oues, too—the great majority of the ehlldreu nre of oue sex or the uther. Aud oue should not be sur¬ prised If the aggregate effect of this lupsldeduoss were to produi-e a con-- slderable excess of meu or womeu In u nation. Tho fact thnt such is not the case, then shows that there Is some potent and mysterious law of coni- ponsatlon at work upon the rnce as a whole. And this law operates upon many of Ihe animals ns well ns nnu. On the farm It is found convenient to preserve a great predominance of one sex over the other iu cattle and chlcU- ODB. Curiosity, not to eny nstoulshmon'. Is excited, therefore, by a re.'enf nu nouncement of the Census Hun au. The onumei'utlou of IIHK) shows Unit there are more men uud boys tiinu women nud girls in this couutry nnd thnt the difference exceeds 1,5*00,111)0 In n poulatlon ot 7r.,30.3,3,S7. The ix- cess appears more distinctly, perhaps, wheu it Is said that there ure t>V2 males nnd ouly 4S,S females in every Ihousnnd people in ihe United Sluies. What is more, this sort of Ihlug has beon going on, wllh some Uttle fluctuu- tloii lu the percentage, for over half n century. As long ago as IKHI there was a distinct numerical superiority of the male over the female element. By 18110 the prepouderauce was even more conspicuous, hut iu 1870 less tlnin for several decades. The returns for 1880 show n slight gnlu ouce more, though tho disparity of 18rs) wns uot quite reached, nnd those for 18iH) a still further increase. The situation has scarcely changed In the last teu years. Indeed, the Census Bureau lig¬ ures oul u microscopic fnlllug off in fhe growth of the male population, us compared with the female. To b<' sure, the excess wns only l,r)H0,0i)7 in ISSKI. aud hns sluce beeu enlarged by 254.727; bul the burenu flnds that the percentages of gain nre not quite alike, uud tliat there are faint iudlcatluus of n future ri'actlou. The state of things hero vevenled Is the more strlklug wbeu compared with that existing lu Europe. Both In the I'nlted Kingdom and ou the Continent the women nre more nuiuer- OUH than the men. It Is possible to detect forces which disturb the bnl- nnce In sume of these countries. But .Mr. I'orier. supeiinlendeut of the cen¬ sus of ]8iKl. was inclined to think llmt these Influences did uot operafe per- cepfildy In Auslria nnd the Nether¬ lands, and heme that uoriually the female sex out numbers the male lu nearly the proportion of Ufty-oue to forty-nine. t.'ouipnrlsou with the standurd, Ihen, mnke the excess of ninles in America stranger than It nalure exhibited strict Impartiality. The two forces which appi'ar to be chiefly concerned lu upsetting the equilibrium are wnr aud Immlgniflon. .\iid ot the two flic former Is much Ibe less effeclive.

The departures from one coun¬ iry. tlU'iefore, leave the other sex lu excess in oue pnrt of tbe world, while they promote the preponderance of Ihelr owu In nnother.

Now, Inasmuch as three out of every flve Inimlgranfs wbo come to the l'nlt¬ ed Slates are nun aud Ieu out of every sevenly-flve people here ure of foreigu birth.

Celebrities are always checking into rehab for something: drugs, alcohol and other addictions. We applaud their efforts in proactively getting their lives back on track, but there's one type of rehab that celebs always overlook: reputation rehab. Many celebs could use an overhaul of their public image, yet few take the time to actually do so. As you'll see, style isn't the only thing that needs a makeover.
Check out this list of celebrities who need to rehabilitate their image.
Chris Brown
Photo: WENN
While many feel contempt for Chris Brown, we can't help but feel bad for the guy. Since his return to the public eye after the Rihanna beating scandal of 2009 the singer can do no right. His poor decision making seems deliberate, as though he's intentionally becoming the villain everybody thinks he is. A heavily tattooed Brown appears sullen and angry just about all the time. Instead of engaging every negative comment, fight, and Twitter beef that came his way, we wish Chris had just taken the high-road and ignored it. He'd probably be much better off.

Let me get this straight.
You grow small children?
That was the problem! I'd taught full-time for 15 years with 7-11 year olds and loved the job but after moving and having my own child somehow it was on my records that i was expert in teaching KS1 (under 7s) so when I went to any school on supply I got stuck with the tinies. It was awful. I'm not good with little kids....frighten them mostly... ask my daughter, I frighten her most of the time. Nowadays I can be as eccentric as I want, the plants don't run away - well not screaming anyway. The money's barely enough to get by but the stress level is zero, the commute to work is different every day and never more than 15 mins. And I like carnations don't grow any but have their smaller relatives, pinks, at home, my favourite being Doris.

Mystery beyond me': A Vt. translator's search for meaningBy Kevin OConnor
STAFF WRITER | February 10,2013Jeb Wallace-Brodeur / Staff Photo
David Hinton, shown at his East Calais home, combines his life as a Chinese translator with his love of hiking in the new book Hunger Mountain: A Field Guide to Mind and Landscape.For those not celebrating todays Asian New Year, Vermonter David Hinton is the perfect person to explain what ancient Chinese tradition can teach the average plugged-in, stressed-out American.
Google his name on your iPad or iPhone and youll see the East Calais husband and father certainly has the credentials: The winner of numerous national fellowships, hes one of the most lauded modern translators of classical Chinese poetry and philosophy in the English-speaking world.
But Hinton isnt looking for more laurels or at least the figurative kind. Instead, hes aiming to let go of academic abstractions and, harnessing all he has learned from Taoist masters, literally take a hike.
At the beginning of my walk, there are the two of us the mountain and me, Hinton writes in his new book, Hunger Mountain: A Field Guide to Mind and Landscape.
Then I begin to notice: wind scattering leaves off field-edge trees in gusty patterns of brilliant color; a wild apple tree, trunk gnarled, fruit incandescent reds and yellows and greens shimmering with sunlit snowmelt.
And himself merging into it all, no longer differentiating human and nature, no distinction between me and the mountain, only empty consciousness mirroring the mountains form.
Hinton knows central Vermonts Hunger Mountain across the Stowe valley from Mount Mansfield, the states highest summit may appear a seemingly unremarkable peak. But in a society wired by electronics and ego, its the bedrock of his quest to tune out the static and reconnect with the planet and the present moment.
Fellow Vermonter Bill McKibben, in a cover blurb, deems Hintons 144-page Shambhala paperback gorgeous. Londons Guardian newspaper, declaring it a book of the year, sums up its meditative series of foot-journeys through upstate Vermont and the intellectual landscapes of Chinese philosophy as very different. Publishers Weekly, sharing that sentiment, elaborates in its own review.
He pairs his own metaphysical insights from living, working and walking around Vermonts Hunger Mountain with those of Chinas classical sage-poets (Kuang Su, Tao Chien, Tu Fu, and more) to masterful effect, the latter publication writes. While this may be rigorous reading for those unfamiliar with Hintons specialized topics, there are wonderful stories for all to enjoy.
Hinton, however, isnt aiming simply to entertain. Instead, hes hoping readers dig past his words and ground themselves in direct experience seeing, hearing, smelling, touching and tasting for themselves.
I dont want to just talk about it, I want to make it happen, he says in an interview. The center of identity is constructed of those stories we tell ourselves. In the end, you have to pull the rug out from under all of them.
Original nature
A Utah native, Hinton discovered classical Chinese poetry and philosophy as a student. Unlike contemporary alphabetic language, the earliest surviving writings oracle-bone script from the second millennium B.C. are pictographic. The symbol for moon, for example, looks like a moon.
A language of such pictures, he writes, keeps consciousness close to its original nature.
Hinton studied how to translate Chinese at Cornell University and in Taiwan. Doing so, he stumbled over many a scholars word-for-word deciphering of ancient works. Consider, for example, this reading of the eighth-century writing of Meng Hao-jan: Not aware beginning autumn night gradually long, began one line. Stairs below blaze grass see dew radiance, ended another.
I could see, Hinton recalls, they were missing most of what was there in the original.
He found something more: Autumn begins unnoticed. Nights slowly lengthen,/and little by little, clear winds turn colder and colder,/summers blaze giving way. My thatch hut grows still./At the bottom stair, in bunchgrass, lit dew shimmers.
Unlike Western writers, early Eastern poets didnt use I or metaphor to communicate their state of mind. When Tu Fu (712-770) observed, Thin slice of ascending light, arc tipped/Aside all its bellied dark the new moon, he experienced just that.
Hinton appreciates how such work more closely communicates momentary sensations in a realm of constant change. Then again, it also was written a long time ago in a place far, far away.
I wanted to do something more direct and try to make it happen in our own world.
And so Hinton began chronicling his hikes. Following the spiritual path of his source material, he walks up the mountain as if sitting down for meditation, aiming to let go of mental clouds and open to a larger truth.
All of the events and landscapes, books and people and experiences that have made me who I am, all of the ideas and what Ive built from them that whole life is completely forgotten here, this mountain walk filling my mind with blue sky and all the colors of these autumn leaves shimmering with last nights rain, he notes in his book. If I cast my attention back and tried, I could certainly remember one thing or another. But in that remembering, I would have lost whatever is happening right now.
People who funnel life through earphones or touchscreens, the author would argue, dont always realize how such equipment can disconnect them.
The longer I look, he writes of the mountain, the more it becomes another form of meditative practice, for it reveals once again how we are most fundamentally the opening of consciousness, that gaze of awareness, rather than the center of thought and intention with which we normally identify.
Hinton also has learned from such masters as Lao Tzu, creator of the seminal spiritual text the Tao Te Ching.
To translate them, he says, is to live in their minds.
As most reviews of Hunger Mountain note, communicating the journey can be a challenge.
Its sort of a mongrel book because it has all these pieces, Hinton says. It can be nature writing or Chinese linguistics, cosmology, Zen or Chan Buddhism There are lots of academics and scholars who look at me and say, hes a popularizer. Then there are people on the other side who say, Youre hopelessly complicated its way too heady.
(Cue his daughter, quoted in the book as saying: The snow is resting in the trees because its tired from falling so fast.)
Yet whether writing about old or new, language or landscape, Hinton ultimately shares his stories to help readers see past their own inner narratives. His book tells the true tale of a Chinese poet named Summit-Gate.
There was much to speak of in Summit-Gates life. The war that ravaged her village, the lost sister and husband, the glue and varnish of government. She once wrote those poems, but eventually she wanted to speak out of something larger than herself.
And so she collected autumn leaves to release into the wind after the first snowfall.
Skidding and scratching, snagging and soaring, they each inscribed a script of twists and curls, Hinton writes. Each winter, Summit-Gate emptied her library this way. She could see how the poems began, and that was enough.
In his own words
Its easy to assume that in language we can grasp the essence of things. This is a bedrock assumption in the mainstream Western philosophical tradition; but everything we know about this Cosmos, about its vast and intricate natural history, the equations describing its day-to-day web of energy transfers, and all our stories and myths and legends all of that imagination and knowledge is part of the center, this body of understanding and memory and thought that I am. Even after the most exhaustive scientific description, the most accurate philosophical account, or the most concise and imagistic poem, the ten thousand things remain, in and of themselves, a mystery beyond me.

Tomlin: "It was a positive day for Ben"Posted by on December 5, 2012 – 4:28 pm
Quarterback Ben Roethlisberger was a full participant in practice on Wednesday for the first time since he injured his shoulder against the Kansas City Chiefs and Coach Mike Tomlin liked what he saw.
"I thought it was a positive day for Ben," said Tomlin. "He threw the ball around both vertically and horizontally. I thought the ball had good velocity, particularly in a few instances. It was positive. Obviously, we'll see how his body responds to it tomorrow, but I thought today was a good step. We'll see what tomorrow holds for us."
Roethlisberger hasn't played in the last three games, but if he continues to progress he could play this Sunday against the San Diego Chargers at Heinz Field.
"I'll see how his body responds in the morning and we'll go from there," said Tomlin. "But it was a positive day today. He made all the necessary throws."
Also practicing on Wednesday were wide receiver Jerricho Cotchery (ribs), running back Will Johnson (concussion) and quarterback Byron Leftwich (ribs).
Nine players missed practice on Wednesday, including tackles Mike Adams (ankle) and Willie Colon (knee), receiver s Antonio Brown (ankle), Emmanuel Sanders (shoulder) and Mike Wallace (knee), safeties Ryan Clark (hip) and Troy Polamalu (not injury related), cornerback Ike Taylor (ankle), and linebacker LaMarr Woodley (ankle).

Great news, please don't let Ben play unless he is heathly, Charlie can do it again if Ben is not ready.

It just seems kind of odd that Ben gets injured right when his son is about to be born. hmmmmm !! Now that he's fine it's like he was never hurt to begin with. hmmmmmm !
By Ryan Mitchell on Dec 5, 2012 | Reply
So Bob……what you are insinuating is that Ben wasn't really hurt and that the organization and himself were just saying it so he could be there when his son was born? Ben had already stated, months before, that he would miss a game if his son was being born that day…..so what would be the need to make up a fake, potentially life threatening injury? Ben is one of the most, if not the most, competitive quaterbacks in the league. He would have absolutely no reason to fake an injury.

Let Charlie run it as far as he can…Save Ben for the Playoffs.
By Dwayne Cabaniss on Dec 5, 2012 | Reply
Really, Bob? Why would he need to fake an injury, when he's already expressly stated that he'd sit out for the birth of his son? Then he attends practices and games to support and help as much as he can. He misses not one, but both games against the Ravens. Having seen him play an entire half last year on a high ankle sprain, no one should doubt his willingness to play. I could see that angle if it were only one game, but he's been out 3, and perhaps 4 weeks at a critical juncture. Not to mention the flak that he and the team got last year when he tried to rush back too soon and hurt the team. Hope you're just joking…

Dress Ben, start Batch. If Charlie is doing good, let him play. If he isn't doing well and we need help, then put Ben in.
By Greg peters on Dec 5, 2012 | Reply
Are you serious Bob!!! Do you think Ben would fake injury to miss playing 2 games against the Ravens! Big Ben is a warrior period!!! You should have your head examined!!!
By Ryan on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
Why is everyone hammering on Ben? Clearly he was injured look at the replay how he fell down was not right i knew he was hurt before they said it..How many times does this man have to prove himself he has played and played time after time hurt over the past couple of years so you know what cut him some slack..He has a family now to worry about and i dont care who you are family comes first in my book so good for him if he took off to heal correctly..I would take ben over brady or manning anyday of the week
By Mary Rafail on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
HMMMMM! Bob…Ben Jr. was born on a Wed. not on a Sunday or gameday. He would of been there regardless if hurt or not since it was late Wed eve almost Thanksgiving Day. Not games on the schedule those days! One should NEVER question Ben's actions. All is good…be thankful. HMMMMM!
By skydiver on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
Charley can handle it this week against the Chargers. Ben could be more-seriously hurt if he's not fully healed. No sense in taking chances.

Relax people I believe Bob is kidding. Man you ever heard of sarcasm?.

Look at all these ankle injuries…what is going on?
By Frankie on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
We all know that if the steelers make the playoffs, it is because of Ben Roethlisberger. I would really like to see him gradually worked into the game against the Chargers. I would love nothing more than him to beat the cowboys in Dallas,

Let Ben play; but please lets back to basic give the ball to the running backs do not expose Ben too much PLEASE!!

Great News GO STEELERS
By James Mills on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
HEY BOB, I just wonder if you are really a Steeler fan or NOT. I mean really you think that Ben was faking a injury. After all he's been through slamming his face into a car windsheild at 60 m.p.h. I mean really Bob think about it playing with a broken foot and all the other injuries he's had. And you think that he's faking get real dude. Anyway if he's ready to play, play him.
By Dave Smtih on Dec 6, 2012 | Reply
A VERY wise man once stated. "It is best to sit and appear stupid than to open ones mouth and remove all doubt" In this case I am assuming Bob is putting his words to paper.
Hmmmmmmm !

this season feels like 2005.7-5 with four games remaining.ben will play if he is ready,the steelers will just keep getting stronger.defense is starting to roll and all we need from them is a few more turnovers.the one thing i would like to hear from the fans at heinz field is more nooooooise when the visiting team has the ball.It sounds dead on tv.good luck steelers from a diehard fan in baltimore

For almost two decades the Institute on Communication and Inclusion has been giving a voice and a means to communicate to people with disabilities who may have otherwise been living in silence or isolation. The Institute on Communication and Inclusion (ICI) conducts research and promotes support for people with disabilities to communicate in schools and society. Formerly, the Facilitated Communication Institute, the new name, the Institute on Communication and Inclusion, represents a broadened focus developed over the past 20 years, reflecting lines of research, training and public dissemination that focus on school and community inclusion, narratives of disability and ability, and disability rights. Its initiatives stress the important relationship of communication to inclusion.
The Summer Institute is headed west! WAPADH will be hosting their West Coast Symposium July 23-25, 2015 at the Radisson Hotel in Whittier California. The conference will be supported by the ICI and the national trainer network. Please visit WAPADH's website for more details and to register. We hope to see many of you there in sunny southern California!
The ICI's Annual Summer Institute: Envisioning the Future: A New Disability Narrative was held on July 28-30, 2014 at the Sheraton Syracuse University Hotel & Conference Center. The conference was a wonderful opportunity for learning, making connections and building skills. Click here for materials from presentations and workshops.
The Institute on Communication and Inclusion receives financial support from private individuals and foundations, and is part of the Inclusion Institutes, housed in the Syracuse University School of Education.
