Easter Lamb from Sicily
Makes 8 servings
If lamb is the quintessential Easter food, then this is the dish to celebrate the holiday with. The tastes of spring sing from the creamy lemon sauce enfolding the meat. When I ate this at Regaleali, a great Sicilian wine estate in the interior of the island, I wanted to fly into the kitchen immediately and learn its secrets. I restrained myself long enough to eat an extraordinary dinner and drink wonderful wines, and then Mario LoMenzo. the family cook, gave me the recipe and showed me how he had made the dish.
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 onion, minced
4 pounds ( l 3/4 kilograms) boneless lamb stewing meat, cut in large
2 3/4 cups meat broth or enough to cover the lamb thoroughly
6 egg yolks
Juice of 4 lemons
1 pint heavy cream
1 1/2 to 2 tablespoons potato starch for every 2 cups liquid
Salt and pepper
In a large casserole warm the oil and sauté the onion until it is translucent. Add the lamb pieces and cover with broth. Cook over medium-low heat until the lamb is tender, 35 to 45 minutes. Remove the lamb from the broth and keep it warm. Degrease the broth. (The recipe may be done ahead to this point; you may want to chill the broth and remove the fat when it has solidified. You can reheat the lamb in a 350º oven for 30 minutes. )
Warm the broth. Off the fire whisk in the egg yolks and lemon juice and mix well. Over a very low flame whisk in the cream bit by bit. Tum the fire up to medium and slowly stir in the potato starch, whisking it well to prevent lumps from forming. As the sauce thickens, add the lamb, season with salt and pepper, and serve immediately.
Genovese Christmas Sweet Bred from Genoa
Makes 2 loaves
Every city has its own Christmas bread: Milan has panettone; Verona, pandoro; and Genoa, pandolce, literally sweet bread. In its rustic form pandolce is a low, dense bread, thick with raisins, candied fruits, pistachios, and pine nuts, without any of the softness or light, airy quality of its Milanese or Veronese relatives. Perhaps that explains its current unfashionable status and makes sense of why there are two kinds of pandolce, the old-fashioned countrified round and a lighter, softer sweet bread more pleasing to contemporary tastes. When this pandolce arrives at the Christmas table surrounded by bay leaves, its low, round form is a reminder of its medieval origins, for it is scented with such Near Eastern flavors as orange flower water and fennel seeds. If you want to be really traditional, allow the youngest member of the family to cut the first slice, wrap it in a napkin, and offer it to the first poor person who passes. It is wonderful with a sweet white wine.
4 teaspoons active dry yeast or scant 1 2/3 cakes (30 grams) fresh yeast
1 cup plus 6 tablespoons warm water
2 1/2 cups plus 2 tablespoons (355 grams) unbleached all-purpose flour
Stir the yeast into the warm water and let stand until it is creamy, about10 minutes. Mix in the flour, cover with plastic wrap, and let rise untilwell doubled, about 40 minutes.
First Dough
1/2 cup plus 3 tablespoons (150 grams) unsalted butter, very soft
3/4 cup ( 150 grams) sugar
W cup plus 2 tablespoons Marsala
2 tablespoons milk
1 tablespoon orange flower water
1 teaspoon orange extract
3 tablespoons fennel seeds
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1 3/4 cups (250 grams) unbleached all-purpose flour
By Mixer. Put the sponge in the mixer bowl and with the paddle attachment mix in the soft butter in chunks until it is smooth and well mixed. Add the sugar, Marsala, milk, orange flower water, extract, fennel seeds, and salt; mix slowly until smooth, 3 to 4 minutes. Change to the dough hook, add the flour, and mix on the lowest speed until the dough is smooth and elastic, about 3 minutes. The dough will be soft and sticky.
Turn it out onto a well-floured board and knead briefly. Don't worry if it is too soft and sticky to form a ball.
First Rise. Set the dough in an oiled container, cover it well, and let rise until doubled, about 31/4 hours.
Filling3 tablespoons (30 grams) pine nuts
3 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon (40 grams) pistachios
1/2 cup (75 grams) raisins, soaked in tepid water for 1 hour, drained, and squeezed dry
2/3 cup (100 grams) candied orange peel, chopped
Shaping and Second Rise. Pour the delicate, very soft dough out onto a well-floured board. Flatten it into a long rectangular shape and, leaving a 1-inch border all around, sprinkle the top with the pine nuts, pistachios, raisins, and candied orange peel. Pat them in well. Fold in the borders all around and pat well again before rolling the dough up into a ball. Cut the dough in half and make a ball of each piece. Set the dough to rise on parchment paper-lined baking sheets, cover with a towel, and let rise until doubled, about 11/2 hours.
Baking. Preheat the oven to 400 F. Just before baking, use a razor blade to cut the shape of a cross or a triangle in the center of each loaf. Set in the oven and bake 45 to 50 minutes

I am a landscape and adventure photographer from Falmouth, MA now living in Philadelphia.
I first picked up a camera in high school in an attempt to document backpacking throughout the White Mountains of New Hampshire. I have always spent as much of my life outdoors as possible and through photography I was able to document my hiking, skiing, camping, and climbing trips.
College took me to Bozeman, MT and the vastness and scale of the Rocky Mountains, including Yellowstone, Grand Teton, and Glacier National Parks. Having such easy access to these impressive landscapes cemented my passion for adventure photography.
My work is focused mainly on landscapes and the adventures that bring me into the outdoors.
Since moving to Philadelphia in the summer of 2014, I have begun to explore cityscapes and timelapses.

News articles on impact of climate change
Mongabay.com news articles on impact of climate change in blog format. Updated regularly.
Global warming pushes mammals north in Michigan
(05/14/2009) A new study shows that mammals in the state of Michigan are moving north because of climate change, pushing out other species on the way. Researchers studied the distribution and population of nine small mammals from live-trapping data over 30 years and notes from research museums covering the past hundred years. They utilized over 14,000 records covering the nine species.
Blue whales return to migration pattern used before commercial whaling
(05/13/2009) The blue whale may be returning to a migration route that it abandoned during commercial whaling. Researchers have discovered whales migrating from California to the coastlines of British Columbia and the Gulf of Alaska for the first time since 1965. Fifteen different cases of whales have been recorded in the north Pacific; four of the whales were individuals who had been viewed off the coast of California, as well.
Near-record flooding in the Amazon
(05/13/2009) Near-record flooding has displaced thousands of people in the Brazilian Amazon, reports the Associated Press.
Global warming to cripple Southeast Asia economically
(04/28/2009) By the end of the century nations in Southeast Asia will face debilitating economic loss due to global warming, according to a new study from the Asian Development Bank. Analyzing Indonesia, Philippines, Thailand, and Vietnam the study found that they could suffer an annual loss of 6.7 percent ($230 billion dollars) in combined gross domestic product by 2100, more than double the global average which is estimated at a loss of 2.6 percent.
Antarctica's sea ice increasing due to ozone hole, but scientists predict global warming will catch-up
(04/23/2009) Increasing ice in Antarctica is not a sign that the earth is actually cooling instead of warming as some climate change-skeptics have attested. A new study finds that the growth in Antarctic ice during the last 30 years is actually due to shifting weather patterns caused by the hole in the ozone layer. The researchers predict that eventually global warming will catch up to Antarctica leading to overall melting as it has in the Arctic.
River systems worldwide are losing water due to global warming
(04/22/2009) Many rivers around the world are losing water due to global climate change, according to a new study from the American Meteorological Society's Journal of Climate. Large populations depend on some of the rivers for everything from agriculture to clean drinking resources, including the Yellow River, the Ganges, the Niger, and the Colorado, which have all shown significant declines.
Colorado River unlikely to meet current water demands in warmer, drier world
(04/20/2009) Feeding the water habits of such major cities as Los Angeles, Las Vegas, and Phoenix, in addition to providing irrigation waters for the entire Southwestern United States, has stretched the Colorado River thin. The river no longer consistently reaches the sea as it once did. Now a new study warns that the Colorado River system, which has proven dependable for human use throughout the 20th Century, may soon experience shortages due to global warming.
Global warming could turn forests from sink to source of carbon emissions
(04/16/2009) Rising temperatures could reverse the role forests play in mitigating climate change, turning them into net sources of greenhouse gases, reports a new assessment by the International Union of Forest Research Organizations (IUFRO). The report, titled "Adaptation of Forests and People to Climate Change – A Global Assessment" and authored by 35 forestry scientists, examined the potential impacts of climate change across the world's major forest types as well as the capacity of forest biomes to adapt to climate shifts. Among the conclusions: a 2.5-degree-C rise in temperatures would eliminate the net carbon sequestering function of global forests. Presently forests worldwide capture about a quarter of carbon emissions.
Droughts lasting centuries in West Africa are commonplace
(04/16/2009) New evidence shows that sub-Saharan West Africa has experienced megadroughts in recent history lasting hundreds of years, far worse than the Sahel drought of the 1970s and 80s which left 100,000 dead. To uncover West Africa's past drought patterns, researchers compiled a year-by-year record of the last 3,000 years of climate in West Africa by looking at annually-occurring layers of sediment in Lake Bosumtwi in Ghana.
Bird migrations lengthen due to global warming, threatening species
(04/15/2009) Global warming is likely to increase the length of bird migrations, some of which already extend thousands of miles. The increased distance could imperil certain species, as it would require more energy reserves than may be available. The new study, published in the Journal of Biogeography, studied the migration patterns of European Sylvia warblers from Africa to breeding grounds in Europe every spring. They discovered that climate change would likely push the breeding ranges of birds north, causing migrations to lengthen, in some cases by a total of 250 miles.
Cutting greenhouse gases now would save world from worst global warming scenarios
(04/14/2009) If nations worked together to produce large cuts in greenhouse gases, the world would be saved from global warming's worst-case-scenarios, according to a new study from the National Center for Atmospheric Research (NCAR). The study found that, although temperatures are set to rise this century, cutting greenhouse gases by 70 percent the globe could avoid the most dangerous aspects of climate change, including a drastic rise in sea level, melting of the Arctic sea ice, and large-scale changes in precipitation. In addition such cuts would eventually allow the climate to stabilize by the end of the century rather than a continuous rise in temperatures.
Trees in trouble: massive die-offs predicted with global warming
(04/13/2009) An experimental study of pinon pines at Biosphere 2 in Arizona shows that an increase in temperature makes the species more susceptible to die-off during drought. When temperatures were increased by 4 degrees Celsius (7.2 degrees Fahrenheit), the piñon pines died 28 percent faster than trees which experienced drought-conditions at current temperatures, according to a new study published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS).
Global warming will hit corn yields, costing US over a billion dollars annually
(04/10/2009) Corn is the staple crop of the US. Its annual yield is more than twice that of any other American crop, covering an astounding 125,000 square miles. However, this behemoth crop is currently threatened. A new analysis by Environment America, shows that lower yields of corn due to global warming will cost farmers 1.4 billion every year.
Arctic ecosystem in danger as ice thins
(04/07/2009) Recent dramatic news points to both poles undergoing transformation due to climate change. This weekend an ice bridge disintegrated on the Wilkins Ice Shelf in Antarctica, leaving the whole shelf vulnerable to melting, and then yesterday new evidence was released of the impact of warming in the Arctic. Younger thinner ice has become the dominant type in the Arctic over the past five years, reports a new study led by Research Associate Charles Fowler of the Colorado Center for Astrodynamics Research. The thinner ice does not bode well for the Arctic ecosystem, as the ice is more prone to summer melting.
Black carbon linked to half of Arctic warming
(04/05/2009) Black carbon is responsible for 50 percent of the total temperature increases in the Arctic from 1890 to 2007 according to a study published in Nature Geoscience. Since 1890 the temperature in the Arctic has risen 1.9 degrees Celsius, linking black carbon to nearly an entire degree rise in Celsius or almost two degrees Fahrenheit.
Plant communities changing across the globe, says scientist Sasha Wright
(03/29/2009) Having studied plant communities across three continent and within widely varied ecosystems—lowland tropics, deciduous forests, grasslands, and enclosed ecosystems on hill-tops—graduate student Sasha Wright has gained a unique understanding of shifts in plant communities worldwide as they respond to pressures from land use and global climate change. "Plant communities are certainly changing," Wright told Mongabay.com in a March 2009 interview. "These changes are undoubtedly affected by an increased occurrence of extreme weather events, temperature fluctuations, atmospheric CO2 concentrations, human land use, and in some cases urbanization of populations."
Experts forecast probability of global warming tipping points
(03/16/2009) The probability of Earth's climate passing a "tipping point" that could result in large impacts within the next two centuries is greater than 50 percent, according to research published in Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
85% of the Amazon rainforest may be lost due to global warming
(03/14/2009) Warming climate could decimate up to 85 percent of the Amazon rainforest by 2150, according to a new computer model.
Drought threatens the Amazon rainforest as a carbon sink
(03/05/2009) Drought in the Amazon is imperiling the rainforest ecosystem and global climate, reports new research published in Science. Analyzing the impact of the severe Amazon drought of 2005, a team of 68 researchers across 13 countries found evidence that rainfall-starved tropical forests lose massive amounts of carbon due to reduced plant growth and dying trees. The 2005 drought — triggered by warming in the tropical North Atlantic rather than el Niño — resulted in a net flux of 5 billion tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) into the atmosphere — more than the combined annual emissions of Japan and Europe — relative to normal years when the Amazon is a net sink for 2 billion tons of CO2.
Climate change could devastate lizards in the tropics
(03/04/2009) With help from data collected thirty years ago, scientists have discovered that tropical lizards may be particularly sensitive to a warming world. Researchers found that lizards in the tropics are more sensitive to higher temperatures than their relatives in cooler, yet more variable climates. "The least heat-tolerant lizards in the world are found at the lowest latitudes, in the tropical forests. I find that amazing," said Raymond Huey, lead author of a paper appearing in the March 4 Proceedings of the Royal Society B.
Largest US protest on climate change today
(03/02/2009) At 1 PM EST activists from across the US plan to engage in civil disobedience at Capitol Power Plant in Washington DC. Organizers from 90 different groups estimate that more than 2,500 people will be joining in the protests making it the largest US protest on climate change to date. Owned by congress, Capital Power Plant is seen by activists as a longtime symbol of the US government's consistent support for the use of coal, the leading source of CO2 emissions in the US.
Amazon rainforest in big trouble, says UN
(02/19/2009) Economic development could doom the Amazon warns a comprehensive new report from the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP). The report — titled GEO Amazonia [PDF-21.3MB] — is largely a synthesis of previously published research, drawing upon studies by more than 150 experts in the eight countries that share the Amazon.
Climate change doubles coastal erosion in Alaska over 5-year period
(02/18/2009) Coastal erosion along a 64-kilometer (40-mile) stretch of Alaska's Beaufort Sea doubled between 2002 and 2007, report researchers, who link the development to "declining sea ice extent, increasing summertime sea-surface temperature, rising sea level, and increases in storm power and corresponding wave action."
Climate change to have a big impact on marine fisheries
(02/18/2009) Climate change will have a big impact on marine fisheries, report scientists writing in the journal Fish and Fisheries.
Photos: 13,000 species found in Arctic, Antarctic Oceans
(02/16/2009) A marine census has documented more than 13,000 species in the Arctic and Antarctic Oceans, including several hundred that may be new to science. Conducted over a two-year period under often perilous conditions — including monster waves and dangerous polar bears — the series of 18 surveys turned up a wealth of information on the diversity, distribution and abundance of marine life. The research will also help establish a baseline for measure changes in polar ecosystems.
Burning rainforests, melting tundra could accelerate global warming well beyond current projections
(02/16/2009) Projections by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) likely underestimate the scale and rapidity of climate change, warned a Stanford University scientist presenting Saturday at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in Chicago.
Mass media 'screwing up' global warming reporting says renowned climatologist
(02/15/2009) Stanford scientist and climate-specialist Stephen Schneider has called out media organizations for the quality of their reporting on climate change and other scientific issues. "Business managers of media organizations," he said, "you are screwing up your responsibility by firing science and environment reporters who are frankly the only ones competent to do this."
Global warming drives birds north
(02/11/2009) Nearly 60 percent of the 305 species found in North America in winter have shifted their ranges northward by an average of 35 miles, according to an assessment by the Audubon Society.
Global warming may drive the Amazon rainforest toward seasonal forests rather than savanna
(02/11/2009) Changes in rainfall resulting from climate change may drive the parts of Amazon rainforest toward seasonal forests rather than savanna, argue researchers writing in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
Salamander populations collapse in Central America
(02/09/2009) Salamanders in Central America — like frogs, toads, and other amphibians at sites around the world — are rapidly and mysteriously declining, report researchers writing in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences. Disturbingly, salamanders are disappearing from protected areas and otherwise pristine habitats.
As sea ice retreats, swathe of Arctic closed to fishing
(02/06/2009) The North Pacific Fishery Management Council (NPFMC) voted unanimously to close off more than 150,000 square nautical miles of the Arctic sea to commercial fishing. The decision, welcomed by an array of environmentalists and industry groups, is a preventative measure to protect fisheries that have become more accessible as a result of declining sea ice in the Arctic. It is the first time that the federal government has closed a fishery due to climate change instead of over-fishing, says supporters of the ban.
Gravitational effects may boost sea level rise by 25% along U.S. coast
(02/05/2009) The melting of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet could cause sea level to rise more than previously predicted for some regions, including the U.S. coastline, report researchers writing in the journal Science.
Secretary of Energy warns of dire future for agriculture in California
(02/05/2009) Secretary of Energy Steven Chu warned climate change could severely impact California agricultural industry by the end of the century, reported the Los Angeles Times.
Global warming to strengthen Arctic storms
(02/05/2009) Arctic storms could worsen due to climate change, putting fisheries, oil and gas exploration, and sea lanes at risk, warn researchers writing in the journal Climate Dynamics.
Monstrous prehistoric snake provides glimpse of warmer tropical forests
(02/04/2009) On Wednesday scientists announced the discovery of the world's largest snake, a prehistoric beast which preyed on giant turtles and crocodile-like reptiles in South America after the demise of the dinosaurs. As amazing as the discovery is, its greatest importance may be the clues it provides conservationists about the future of tropical forests under various global warming scenarios.
Nemo at risk from CO2 emissions? Ocean acidification may hurt baby fish
(02/02/2009) Increasing carbon dioxide concentrations in the atmosphere may have an unexpected impact on marine ecosystems: disorienting fish larvae. Research published in this week's issue of the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences (PNAS) found that ocean acidification disrupts the olfactory sense of clownfish larvae, making it difficult for the fish to find a habitat, which for clownfish is a sea anemone.
Glaciers decline in ice mass for 18th straight year
(01/30/2009) Glaciers worldwide lost ice mass for the 18th consecutive year due to warming temperatures and reduce snowfall, reports the University of Zurich's World Glacier Monitoring Service. Alpine glaciers lost on average 1.3 meters of thickness in 2006 and 0.7 meters in 2007, extending an 11.3-meter (36-foot) retreat since 1980.
Many global warming impacts may be irreversible in next 1000 years
(01/27/2009) Even if greenhouse gas emissions were to cease today, many of the forecast impacts of climate change are already irreversible for at least the next 1000 years, report researchers writing in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Global warming may doom emperor penguins to extinction
(01/27/2009) Disappearing sea ice around Antarctica may put emperor penguins at risk of extinction within the next century, warn scientists writing in this week's Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Deadly 'brown cloud' over South Asia caused by wood and dung burning
(01/23/2009) Long a subject of debate, the cause of the infamous brown cloud that hovers over the Indian Ocean and South Asia every winter has finally been discovered. Researchers led by Dr Orjan Gustafsson from the University of Stockholm in Sweden announced in Science that 70 percent of the cloud is made up of soot from the burning of biomasses, largely wood and animal dung used for cooking.
Climate change killing forests in the western U.S.
(01/22/2009) Tree death rates in old-growth forests of the western United States have more more than doubled in recent decades likely because of regional climate warming, report researchers writing in the journal Science.
Antarctica shows net warming over past 50 years
(01/22/2009) Despite a cooling trend in the East Antarctic Ice Sheet, Antarctica has experienced net warming over the past 50 years, report researchers writing in the January 22 edition of Nature. Analyzing data from satellites and weather stations authors led by Eric Steig of the University of Washington (UW) found that "warming in West Antarctica exceeded one-tenth of a degree Celsius per decade for the last 50 years and more than offset the cooling in East Antarctica", according to a statement from UW.
Fish may help fight ocean acidification
(01/19/2009) Fish are a major source of calcium carbonate production in marine ecosystems, a finding that has implications for ocean acidification, report scientists writing in the journal Science.
Symposium tackles big question: how many species will survive our generation
(01/16/2009) Nine scientists dusted off their crystal balls Monday at the National Museum of Natural History in Washington DC, weighing in on the future of the world's tropical forest. Despite the most up-to-date statistics, prognosis for the future of tropical forests varied widely. In the last few years a schism has occurred among biologists regarding the future of the tropics. No tropical scientist denies that rainforests and the species which inhabit them face unprecedented threats; neither do they argue that some of these forested regions and species will likely not survive the next fifty years. What has sparked debate, sometimes heated, is how bad will is it really? When the dust settles, what percentage of species will survive and how much forest will remain?
What is the greatest threat to rainforests: habitat destruction or climate change?
(01/13/2009) A symposium from the Smithsonian Institution meant to debate the level of threat by deforestation posed to the tropics shifted topic slightly near its end as scientists began to discus which was the most significant threat for rainforests and the species that inhabit them: habitat destruction or climate change?
Ocean acidification is killing the Great Barrier Reef
(01/01/2009) Since 1990 the growth of coral in Australia's Great Barrier Reef has slowed its lowest rate in at least 400 years as a result of warming waters and ocean acidification, report researchers writing in Science. The finding portends a bleak near-term future for the giant reef ecosystem as well as calcifying marine organisms around the world.
Observed sea level rise, ice melt far outpaces projections
(12/17/2008) Sea levels will rise faster than previously estimated due to rapid melting of glaciers and ice sheets, according to a U.S government report released at the annual meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco. The report, titled Abrupt Climate Change, incorporates research published since last year's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) report, which drew largely from studies dating up to 2006. Most significantly, Abrupt Climate Change suggests that IPCC estimates for future sea level rise (18-58 cm) are conservative, noting that recent observations on sea level rise and loss of sea ice are far outpacing previous projections.
Greenland melting much faster than last year
(12/16/2008) Greenland is losing ice three times faster than last year, report researchers presenting at the meeting of the American Geophysical Union in San Francisco.
Climate change, ocean acidification may doom jumbo squid
(12/15/2008) Ocean acidification — driven by rising carbon dioxide levels in the atmosphere — may hurt the Humboldt squid, report researchers writing in the journal Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences.
Climate change will transform the chemical-makeup of the ocean
(12/11/2008) By studying the ocean's past, scientists have discovered that climate change has a much larger affect on ocean chemistry than expected. The study, published in Science, reveals that 13 million years ago climate change significantly altered the chemical composition of the oceans. Such changes in the ocean's chemical makeup today could have a great impact on marine life, already stressed by overfishing and pollution.

How to make your own runestones
"If they sound too good to be true, you can almost guarantee that they are not the real deal"
Ann Marie is amazing! I love everything about her, she has calming energy and such a kind heart. And her readings blow my mind and inspire me. She is wonderful at helping you gain a clear perspective when you cannot see the wood from the trees. She's precise accurate and understanding and non judgemental and honestly every time I have had reading with her , I feel so much upliftment and her prediction recently came to light. She is truly wonderful , problem is I could listen to her all day, and the way she reads tarot is unique and is like telling you a story of what's going on in your life , when you cannot see all the pages yet. Absolutely amazing. Thanks so much Ann Marie you are a fantastic reader and a genuinely calming lovely beautiful lady. xx

Hello, fellow travelers!
We arrive late Friday night (11:40-ish) and are staying at an address in the Mission. Should we book a shuttle (do they even run that late?) or can we catch a cab? We had considered the BART and then a cab once we arrive in the Mission but I'm concerned we might be stranded if there's a strike. Does anyone have a suggestion for a late arrival at SFO into the Mission? Many thanks!

Welcome! We're glad you are visiting our Web site. Here you can find information about the Friends in Christ ministry.
We had a local ministry building Christian small groups and providing other Christian opportunities primarily in the Maryland suburbs of Washington, DC and Baltimore. We provided, and worked through larger faith communities to provide, opportunities to nurture your growth in Christ through groups which met in different places. Each group chose its own format and focus.
Friends in Christ does not have a regular gatherings under its own name at this time. In conjunction with Friends of Jesus - Metro DC Area (formerly known as Capitol Hill Friends), we have sometimes held worship gatherings, times for Bible reflection, etc. in Maryland. The Friends in Christ Coordinator is a leader of this ministry. If interested, contact Bill Samuel. Currently there are no regular gatherings in Maryland, but some folks gather weekly for Bible study in Washington, DC East of the River. For information, contact Micah Bales. There are no worship gatherings held on a regular schedule, but the core members of Friend in Jesus worship regularly in Church of the Savior faith communities - Dayspring Church in Germantown MD; and New Community Church in the Shaw neighborhood of Washington, DC.
The Bible study group which met twice monthly for 12½ years, considering all four Gospels and the Book of Acts, was laid down on September 16, 2013, at the time the Friends of Jesus Maryland group began.

After weeks of arguments and rants, Kanye actually looked relatively happy for once, as he and his wife swapped Paris for London over the weekend.
Kim Kardashian looks as though she is ready to reemerge from her post-North West slumber and resume her profession as the most photographed person in the world. Having flown out from Los Angeles in the early hours of Friday morning (27 Sept.), leaving Kanye time to get into a fight with some paparazzi before they left, the two traded Paris for London as they continued their first trip away sans North West.
Kim and Kanye arrive in London on Sunday, 29 September
Kim and Kanye arrived at London's St Pancreas Station via the Eurostar train on Sunday, 29 September, after a brief stop in the French capital. Upon arrival, both of them looked fairly tired when they arrived, but still managed to dress the part and, according to certain reports, Kanye was even smiling as they walked through the station! Even as they were photographed! With her newly-dyed blonde locks and her face covered by a brown fedora, the parents were looking loved up as they walked through the crowded station, holding hands and trading smiles from time to time. We never knew Kanye had it in him.
View all the images of Kim and Kanye in London
Never one to let his feelings go unnoticed, Kanye was particularly peeved for the majority of last week, and his few toothy grins are probably the result of finally having something other than Jimmy Kimmel and invasive photographers to worry about. Whilst in Paris, Kanye was actually charming the pants of some paparazzi, which up until then we were sure was one of the signs of the impending apocalypse.
The pair seemed tired when they arrived, but still manage to look good
Before he and Kim arrived in London on Sunday, he was videoed walking through the streets of Paris with the usual crowd of photographers hovering around him, making his usual request of "no questions!" And when no one did pester him and only took some photos, he couldn't believe it! Kanye was so pleased with the French paparazzi that he thanked them and even approached the guy filming him to shake his hand. Maybe next week he'll learn how to turn off caps lock when he's on Twitter and figure out how and when to use Spongebob memes.
The 'Black Skinhead' rapper is reportedly seeking to press charges over Friday's run-in with the paps outside his Los Angeles pad, citing them for trespassing. He is also due in court to face charges of battery and attempted grand theft following a run-in with a photographer at LAX in July. He has since denied the allegations and cited self defence for his actions.
The two are in Europe for an unspecified amount of time

YMMV: Andrew W.K.
- 8.8: Pitchfork's infamous 0.6 score for I Get Wet. 10 years later, they bumped it to an 8.6 for a re-release and added
Let me get it out of the way and welcome everyone who clicked here with the sole hope of witnessing Pitchfork's biggest statistical mea culpa ever. Ten years is a long time for sour grapes to ferment, and I hope they're delicious.
- Broken Base: After he announced to his followers that he's a brony, many fans did not and would not accept it.
- His involvement in promoting CN Real also counts as this.
- Crazy Awesome: Exhibit A: you know why he has a broken nose on the cover of I Get Wet? He smashed his own face with a fraggin' brick. Yeah.note
- Ear Worm: Everything on I Get Wet. EVERYTHING.
- Epic Riff: It feels like Andrew's pumped out a bajillion of these.
- "Party Hard" features two of these prominently featured, each of which could've easily been their own song.
- Epileptic Trees: There's a conspiracy theory about Andrew being a character played by multiple people and that he's actually a Stealth Parody or just a corporate ploy to make money. The "evidence" is that he seems to have a different appearance after 2005,◊ and that the original Andrew W.K. disappeared and was never seen again after being taken off stage at a show. Easily disproven by comparing the cover of ''I Get Wet''◊ to the photos on the right. It's the same guy.
- Germans Love David Hasselhoff: All of his albums have charted highest in Japan, and Japan has received several exclusive albums.
- He Cleans Up Nicely: Normally, he's covered from head to toe in dirt, sweat, and party and could use a shower and a shave. Yeah.◊
- Memetic Mutation:
- The rather silly conspiracy theory has led to people satirically making pictures with "evidence"◊ that a person was switched with another person after a certain year, similarly to Paul Is Dead.
- Nightmare Fuel: As a teenager, he wrote a song called "My Destiny" for a girl he had a crush on. Said song led to her getting a restraining order against him. He only made the song available to listen to in 2010, as it became a rather dark Old Shame. In his own words:
"Aged 17, I set about writing a song for a girl I was obsessed with. When she heard it, she called the police. Have a listen � you'll understand why"
- One of Us:
- The man put out a tribute album to Mobile Suit Gundam.
- He showed up on 4chan's /mu/ board once.note
- He's a brony. Can you guess his favorite pony?note
- He once tweeted, "Role-playing games count as partying."
- He is also a Furry apparently, having even commissioned several well known fandom artists to draw his fursona, a wolf named Party Animal based on his I Get Wet cover.
- Signature Song: Unquestionably, "Party Hard".
- Squick: Sometimes he'll tweet stuff like this.
- They Changed It, Now It Sucks: Reviews of The Wolf were mixed since the overall tempo of the album was slower than on its more famous predecessor, I Get Wet.
- They Wasted a Perfectly Good Plot: Andrew's silky-smooth baritone would've been a perfect accompaniment to the piano pieces on 55 Cadillac, but the album is entirely instrumental.
- Vindicated by History: Pitchfork's review of I Get Wet upon release was a dismal 0.6. However, the tenth anniversary received a far warmer 8.6, along with a Best New Reissue award. See 8.8 above.
- What Do You Mean, It Wasn't Made on Drugs?

Visiting Faculty
Dr. Stephanie Wasserman is a Physiological Psychologist and Resident Scholar at the Brandeis University Women's Studies Research Center. Her early publications focused on animal studies of cocaine self-administration and the potential therapeutic effects of magnesium for treating cocaine addiction.
When she became a foster and adoptive mother, her research interests ventured into a new arena. Her contemporary research seeks to uncover the foster parent voice via in-depth, open-ended interviews. Themes of attachment, separation, risk, and resilience have emerged and are being compared to, and contrasted with, well-established theoretical frameworks in psychology.
Dr. Wasserman will be teaching the Biological Basis of Motivation this fall. During the spring semester she will teach a new course Attachment, Separation, Risk, and Resilience in Adoption and Foster Care.
Professor Wasserman was interviewed by the Brandeis Hoot: Teaching at Brandeis: An Extraordinary Experience.

We are pleased to welcome Professor Shantanu Jadhav to the psychology department! Professor Jadhav's research is in the area of Systems and Cognitive Neuroscience. The research focus of his lab is Learning, Memory and Decision Making in the rodent brain. Professor Jadhav's research aims to understand the neural basis of cognition and behavior by studying processing at the cellular and network level in the neuronal circuits of the brain. His previous work has investigated sensory processing in cortical circuits, memory replay in the hippocampus, and hippocampal-prefrontal interactions during behavior. His current research examines how activity in population of neurons across different brain structures supports the ability to learn, remember and make decisions. He utilizes multiple techniques, including behavior, chronic in vivo electrophysiology during behavior, optogenetics and computational methods.

Generation Iron: A Gorgeous Meditation on Age-Old Existential Concerns
Early in the documentary Generation Iron, bodybuilding icon Arnold Schwarzenegger observes that "Bodybuilding falls into this unique category of being a sport, entertainment, being a way of life, and art." It's an uneasy quartet of ideas forced to harmonize within bodies intentionally made freakish and/or beautiful. Director Vlad Yudin spends a year tracking the brutal physical, mental, and spiritual training of seven top competitors (including all-stars such as Phil Heath, Kai Greene, Branch Warren, and Dennis Wolf) for the Mr. Olympia title, and ends up with a gorgeous meditation on age-old existential concerns. As the men work through their regimens and go about daily struggles to balance personal lives and career goals (struggles which take place on farms, in McMansions, and in housing projects), the film — narrated by Mickey Rourke — returns in beautifully unforced ways to questions regarding hard work versus natural gifts, and which is more important to success. And exactly how do we define success, anyway? It grapples with questions about the nature of work and its worth beyond material payoff. And, crucially, when every man onstage has the unshakable belief that he's the most deserving candidate, that his hard work will absolutely be rewarded with glory, what happens to those who fall short on the scorecards? These questions resonate far beyond the world of bodybuilders, of course, and Yudin pulls lovely philosophical grace notes from his subjects as they illuminate some universal truths from their very specific world. (Ernest Hardy)

St. Louis, MO (Sports Network) - Carlos Beltran and Matt Carpenter hit solo homers, Shelby Miller tossed seven solid innings and the St. Louis Cardinals beat the Atlanta Braves, 6-2, on Saturday.
Beltran went 3-for-5 with two RBI for the Cardinals, who have won four in a row. Matt Holliday knocked in two runs and scored once, while Yadier Molina had an RBI.
Miller (12-8) allowed one run on three hits while striking out six.
"My main goal tonight was to just keep my focus the entire game and just attack the zone," said Miller. "That's kind of what I've been lacking a little bit."
Freddie Freeman hit a solo homer for the NL East-leading Braves, who have dropped the first three contests of this four-game series. Gerald Laird had an RBI.
Atlanta starter Julio Teheran (10-7) gave up four runs on five hits while striking out eight and walking five over six-plus frames.
"It's a combination of tough pitching and we're not swinging it well right now really well," said Braves manager Fredi Gonzalez. "Sometimes you run into a hot team, like they are right now."
The score was 1-1 after Freeman and Carpenter homered for their respective teams in the first inning.
Beltran homered to right with one down in the third to make it 2-1 St. Louis and give the hosts the lead for good.
Miller retired 10 straight batters before giving up a two-out single to Andrelton Simmons in the seventh. B.J. Upton grounded into a fielder's choice to end the inning.
The Cardinals tacked on three more runs in the bottom half of the frame. Pinch-hitter Shane Robinson and Carpenter singled to put runners on the corners. Holliday's two-run double to right-center field and Molina's run- scoring single up the middle made it 5-1.
Beltran's RBI single in the eighth made it a five-run contest.
Randy Choate started on the mound for the Cardinals in the ninth. Brian McCann hit a two-out single before Seth Maness came in from the bullpen. Simmons singled before Laird's RBI double to right plated McCann. Edward Mujica came in to record the final out of the game for his 34th save of the season.
The season series is tied 3-3 ... The Cardinals went 4-for-10 with runners in
scoring position and stranded nine, while Atlanta went 1-for-2 with RISP and
left six men on.

The Journal Sentinel's Craig Gilbert explores political trends in a purple state and beyond.
Recall turnout June 5: high in most places, insanely high in some
Nearly 58% of voting-age adults turned out in Wisconsin's historic recall fight, based on the final June 5 election results certified by the state and released Wednesday.
That's easily the highest turnout in more than 60 years for a nonpresidential ballot:
But in some parts of the state, turnout was far higher, and in a few communities it approached presidential levels.
According to the now official tally, Republican Gov. Scott Walker got 53.08% (1,335,585 votes) and Democrat Tom Barrett got 46.28% (1,164,480 votes).
A total of 2,516,065 votes were cast.
The heavily Republican counties outside Milwaukee boasted the highest turnout rates, as is often the case in statewide elections.
But some Democratic areas also generated unusual turnouts. The city of Milwaukee's turnout was lower than the statewide average. But it was far higher than it has been in recent contests for governor.
These were the top five counties for turnout, measured by votes cast as a percentage of voting-age adults (using population figures from the 2010 Census):
Ozaukee: 74%.
Waukesha: 72%.
Washington: 70%.
Bayfield: 68%.
Dane: 67%.
The county with the lowest turnout was Menominee (28%), followed by Dunn (45%), Grant (45%), Monroe (46%) and Juneau (47%).
These geographic patterns are heavily influenced by income and education, since voters with higher education and income levels historically turn out at higher rates. Ozaukee, Waukesha, Washington and Dane counties have among the highest median incomes in Wisconsin.
Those counties are also the target of massive get-out-the-vote efforts by the two parties, with Dane a rich source of Democratic votes and Waukesha, Washington and Ozaukee a rich source of GOP votes.
Turnout in heavily Democratic Milwaukee County was 56% of voting-age adults, just under the statewide rate. (You can see turnout rates for all 72 counties here).
As big as the vote was statewide, some communities — most notably in the Milwaukee and Madison suburbs — had truly exceptional turnouts for a gubernatorial election.
In Whitefish Bay for example, 84% of voting-age adults voted on June 5, with Walker winning 52% of that vote.
In Brookfield, 80% of voting-age adults turned out, with Walker winning 73% of the vote.
In Fox Point, 78% of voting-age adults turned out, with Walker winning 51%.
In Mequon, 77% of voting-age adults turned out, with Walker winning 71%.
In Middleton in Dane County, 73% of voting-age adults turned out, with Barrett winning 69%. (These rates may be lower than what local election clerks report, since localities often measure turnout as percentage of registered voters, not voting-age adults, as the state does).
The statewide turnout rate of 58% of voting-age adults was 11 points below Wisconsin's 2008 presidential turnout of 69%.
But in some red and blue parts of the state that were deeply engaged by the recall fight, turnout wasn't too far off presidential levels, an extraordinary circumstance for a summertime special election.
For example, Middleton cast 10,426 votes in the 2008 presidential election, and almost that many — 9,952 — in the recall election June 5.
New Berlin cast 24,846 votes in 2008, and 22,943 on June 5.
Some counties came closer than others to matching the size of their presidential vote in 2008. Washington County cast 74,441 votes for president in 2008, and 69,203 votes for governor on June 5. Waukesha cast 232,897 votes in 2008 and 213,332 in 2012. Walker won both counties by landslides.
Turnout in the city of Milwaukee, a key source of Democratic votes, was a little over 51% of voting-age adults on June 5. That was lower than the statewide turnout rate. But it was also a big increase from the 2010 governor's race, when turnout was only 43%.
In fact, the city of Milwaukee cast 20% more votes in 2012 than it did in the 2010 race for governor, a bigger increase than the state as a whole experienced (16%). Milwaukee cast almost 30% more votes on June 5 than it did in the 2006 race for governor. That suggests that Democrats had success turning out their base in Milwaukee, while losing badly in much of outstate Wisconsin.
Barrett, the mayor of Milwaukee, won 77% of the city vote.
In the city of Madison, another Democratic bastion, 63% of voting-age adults turned out, and Barrett won 79% of the vote.
The 57.8% statewide turnout June 5 easily topped the previous 60-year high for a nonpresidential ballot (52.4% in the 1962 race for governor).
But it wasn't a record for a gubernatorial election. Before the 1970s, governors in Wisconsin served two-year terms, so every other election occurred on a presidential ballot, which traditionally draws much higher turnout. As a result, there were postwar elections for governor in presidential years that drew more than 70% of voting-age adults in some cases (1952, 1960) and more than 60% in others (1956, 1964, and 1968).
You can see the certified June 5 results here.

I got a problem with response gallery. It functions quite well, the only thing is, that it doesn't show up on the main blog page in (blog layout mode, not magazine mode), if used in a blog post and "post/blog page" is marked under "full post content" in the main site options.
Means: I got a photoblog, where I got one photo per blogpost shown up in full width on the blog page underneath each other. If I put a response gallery into a post instead of a single photo, no photo is shown up on the blog page. Inserting a single photo additional to the response gallery is no option, because it looks crappy.
Can anyone help?
