Fibreworks® Natural Floorcoverings are relatively easy to maintain. Sisal, Coir, and Jute are hard natural fibers that will perform well in most environments with only regular vacuuming. The static-free nature of the fibers will not attract and cause dust to cling. Dirt and grit tend to filter through weave rather than stay on top of the surface, thus reducing abrasion to these floorcoverings. Bacteria will not penetrate the hard fibers of these natural products.

Please insure that your vacuum beater bar is properly adjusted. Damage to the fibers of the carpet can occur if the brushes of the vacuum are set too low. Damage can include excess fuzzing or sprouting of the fibers.
The head of the vacuum should be adjusted so that the brushes barely touch the face of the carpet. Do not use a vacuum that automatically adjusts. Dyson vacuums should not be used, as they will cause excess fuzzing.
The best care you can give your floorcovering is regular, thorough vacuuming. Proper vacuuming will reduce soil build up and prolong the beauty and life of your floorcovering.
Because our floor coverings are woven from Natural Fibers, they have normal irregularities that are considered part of their charm. Variations in weave and shading, for example, create a distinctive, interesting character that makes natural fiber floor coverings unique. What you won't find anywhere is a perfect natural fiber floorcovering.

A note about cutting rugs...Please be advised we can not hold tight tolerance when cutting natural fiber rugs. Large rugs can weigh as much as 400 pounds. The ability to hold and turn large rugs can be difficult, making it hard to keep tight tolerance on rug dimensions. The dimensions can be off as much as 1/2".

A note about Latex Backing... Natural latex has been used as a carpet backing for years with excellent performance. The increased popularity of wood floors has introduced many new types of finishes and sealants, as well as cleaning agents. These new introductions may affect the performance of latex, including causing the latex to stick to the floor, discolor, or crumble. It is impossible to know how latex may react to the many new substances it can come in contact with. Please consider a rug pad as an protective measure for your floors. Fibreworks cannot be responsible for the performance of wood floors that react to latex.

Inspect Before Receiving Label
Fibreworks®' goal is to work with you to ensure that every claim related to freight damage is placed with the appropriate party and is fairly negotiated. If proper steps are followed, freight claims can be easily and fairly negotiated. Without following the proper process, freight lines will not honor a claim. Remember, when it comes to a claim for products damaged in shipping, the claim is against the freight line, not Fibreworks®.Freight lines can take up to 120 days to negotiate a claim. We cannot help you recover a loss without proper implementation of good receiving and inspection policies and proper claim processes.
With refused shipments, Fibreworks® can immediately process a replacement order because we know that the truck line is responsible for the damaged product. Please contact your Account Manager.
Without a notation of suspected damage, you are receiving your shipment free and clear, and thus waiving your freight claim rights.
It is possible that the freight line will ask that you inspect the shipment during the delivery if you suspect damage- please notate it on the Bill of Lading. This will save everyone time and money in the long run by dealing with the issue at that moment. If you do inspect at that time, and you notice damage, refuse the shipment. Fibreworks® will process a replacement product quickly as we know that the freight line is responsible for the damaged product.
If you do not inspect the product at the receiving time, then you have- depending on the freight line- approximately 7 days to report any damage. If you do not inspect the product within 7 days and report damage, you are waiving your freight claim rights. If damage is found, please contact your Account Manager immediately so that Fibreworks® can start to negotiate the freight claim. We may be required to get the product returned for inspection. If so, we will authorize the return by giving you a Return Authorization.
We will do all we can to help negotiate a claim when we are properly notified (our ability to help will vary depending if the shipment is prepaid or collect).
One of the most recurring freight damage problems has been material damaged due to broken cores. Our research indicates three main reasons for broken cores: 1) fork lift poles that are too short to support the length of the carpet 2) fork lifts that are driven too fast, causing the carpet to bounce and subsequently to break the core 3) use of unloading equipment other than carpet poles.
In many cases shipments are received 'free and clear' when the cores are broken in many places. Broken cores can create creases and stretch marks in the carpet, that in most cases make the material unusable. This is not hidden or concealed damage. Any evidence that the carpet is limp or has a sharp angle should be noted.
The freight companies have fair claim processes regarding notated damage or suspected damage. If no notation is made, at best they will pay 1/3 of the cost, based on the assumption that the manufacturer, the shipper or the receiver could have been responsible for the damage. The best protection is to look carefully at the core at receiving.
Fibreworks® will provide a 50% discount on any remake due to product damaged in shipping when recourse is not available through the freight lines; provided the first product is paid in full and subject to certain conditions.
For more information on the freight claims process, or our Freight Damage Remake program, contact your Account Manager or Sales Representative 800-843-0063, (press 2 for Account Management).
We encourage you to make a special effort to inform your customer of the risk associated with receiving a residential delivery without properly inspecting and recording obvious or suspected damage before signing the Bill of Lading. The conditions for properly filing a freight claim do not change for residential delivery, but the risk can due to the inexperience of the resident. Please inform your customer to be present during delivery, and to properly inspect. The customer is receiving the shipment on your behalf, and the risk for properly receiving is historically greater with residential delivery.

SELECTED LETTERS OF WILLIAM STYRON. Edited by Rose Styron with R. Blakeslee Gilpin. Knopf. 672 pages. $40.
When William Styrons wife, Rose, was cleaning out their Roxbury, Conn., house to sell it, she came across something unexpected: a trove of letters to her husband. Reading them, she wondered what his side of the correspondence looked like.
So began a project to collect and catalog Styrons letters, resulting in this volume of more than 1,000 pieces of mail sent to the likes of Philip Roth, Norman Mailer, George Plimpton, and a whos who of the 20th and early 21st centuries.
Styron turns up all over the place: founding the Paris Review with his friends George Plimpton and Peter Matthiessen, sailing on the presidential yacht with the Kennedys, attending the 1968 Democratic Convention in Chicago, hosting a dinner for Gabriel Garcia Marquez and Bill and Hillary Clinton (I look forward to the Clintons arrival with mixed fascination and dread).
Styron had a gift for friendship and sustained strong relationships over the course of his life. Rose Styron, in her introduction, describes him as a kind, physically gentle man who flew into legendary, short-lived rages at all of us.
Anyone seeking soulful introspection about the creative act will be disappointed by Styrons letters. Roses kind, gentle man is in evidence, especially in letters to his father and to William Blackburn, his writing teacher at Duke, but the rageful Styron dominates. Once the books are written, Styron goes into literary combat. Hes in a hand-to-hand fight for the top spot. Who gets the prizes, who gets the love and sales?
From the beginning to the end of the Selected Letters, Styron stews over the politics of bookdom.
For someone so tuned to the lit scene, Styron is often out of whack when appraising other writers. Finding Eudora Weltys stuff ... fairly pale, he judges that she commits the crime of women writers in general seeing life through pastel-tinted spectacles.
His praise can be likewise off-kilter. The generation of the 20s really had it made, Styron declares, Yet not one of them, to my mind, except Faulkner, ever wrote a novel as fine as The Naked and the Dead (by Norman Mailer).
The relationships are everything here, and not knowing them, we may be missing the tone. Most of Styrons letters were written unguardedly, to friends.
Although he was so ambitious, Styron wasnt (at least judging from The Selected Letters of William Styron) unctuous. He is not writing to please. In an early letter, he speculates that seeing one of his letters in print would make him feel naked and so he is in this volume.

Lobo Men's Cross Country Gets At-Large Berth, Joins Women at Nationals
Nov. 14, 2011
Colorado Springs, Colo. - Seven Lobos earned All-Mountain Region recognition from the United States Track & Field and Cross Country Coaches Association (USTFCCCA) on Monday. From the women's team Ruth Senior, Sarah Waldron, Kirsty Milner, Natalie Gray, and Imogen Ainsworth earned the honor, while Ross Millington and Sean Stamgot it for the men. Athletes of member institutions that finished in the top 25 individually at one of the nine NCAA Regional Championship sites last Saturday earned the distinction.
The New Mexico women's cross country team received an automatic bid to the NCAA Championship after tying Colorado for first-place honors at the Mountain Regional on Saturday in Provo, Utah. The Lobo men earned an at-large bid after finishing fourth in the 10K race at the Mountain Regional.
The five women on the All-Region team makes 18 selections in the last four years for UNM. For Senior, it's her third straight year on the team. Gray, Waldron, and Milner were All-Region in 2010, and this is Ainsworth's first honor.
It marks the second straight year Millington earned All-Region honors, and he and Stam are the 13th and 14th Lobos in the last four years to earn the honor.
Five other Mountain West student-athletes made All-Region, including TCU junior Agnes Kemboi, who punched her ticket as an individual qualifier to 2011 NCAA Cross Country Championships by pacing the Horned Frogs at the South Central Regional on Saturday in Waco, Texas.

The second 20 minutes, however, were another story. The second half is the reason why the Wildcats are going to be waking up before dawn from now until Christmas for early-morning conditioning sessions.
"Strap 'em on, boys," Calipari said.
UK headed to the halftime locker room leading 45-14. The Cats shot better than 50 percent from the field, held the visitors to 20-percent shooting, forced 14 turnovers and had nine steals.
"The way we played in the first half, we took these guys out," Calipari said. "We played, blocked shots, took charges, played - like played - basketball, competed against the other guy."
The rest of the way UK outscored Samford just 43-42. The Cats once against shot well over 50 percent from the field, but the Bulldogs shot better than 50 percent themselves while UK forced just three turnovers and had just two steals en route to an 88-56 victory.
To Coach Cal, the statistical difference between the two halves doesn't even tell the whole story. The lack of exertion he saw on the floor was particularly troubling because that very thing is the reason why his team took losses in each of its last two outings. In searching for an explanation for the second-half lapse, Calipari sees just one possibility.
"You come out for 20 minutes and you compete, then you come out the second half and you don't," Calipari said. "Then you're not in shape or you don't care. I don't want to even go that way. I don't even want to hint that way."
In light of that, Coach Cal sees just one option for how to resolve the conditioning issue.
After a day off on Wednesday, players will be summoned to the Joe Craft Center at 7 a.m. for running, running and more running. Later in the day, the team will hold its regular afternoon practice.
"We'll get (strength and conditioning coach) Ray Oliver," Calipari said. "20 to 30 minutes of straight running. Heart rates will be high. Not heart rates at 120. Your heart rate is going to be at 175, 180."
By the time players are dismissed for three days to spend time with family for the holidays, UK won't have a conditioning problem any longer. That could simultaneously solve another issue.
"Some of it may be mentally you're not strong enough, you're soft," Calipari said. "So the conditioning is good. It makes you stronger mentally."
If you ask Willie Cauley-Stein - who posted his first career double-double with 12 points and 12 rebounds on Tuesday night - the mental side is really what this is all about.
"It's all mental," Cauley-Stein said. "He's trying to get us more mentally tough. There's no way we can't be in shape. Going through offseason and even how practices are now, there's no way we're not in shape."
If Cauley-Stein is right and he and his teammates are in shape, that will certainly help come Thursday morning. That doesn't mean he's looking forward to losing sleep to pre-dawn exercise. At the same time, he knows viewing it with a sense of foreboding won't help anything.
"If you dread them then it's worse," Cauley-Stein said. "So you gotta approach it as it's going to help you. A lot of guys don't do that but you approach it like it's going to make us better and in three weeks it's going to be crazy how good we are. If you approach it in a good way then it's going to be a good outcome."
The outcome Calipari is looking for is the Cats playing a full 40-minute game. If they do that, Calipari is sure UK will look a lot more like the top-five team they were billed as entering the season.
In fact, Coach Cal sees that preseason hype as sharing in some of the blame for what happened in the second half against Samford and in the games against Baylor and Notre Dame.
"I think we all got intoxicated, including me, about everything that was written and said about this team," Calipari said. "I kept telling you, 'We're not that good.' I'm looking, 'Maybe I'm wrong. Maybe we're better than I think.' Uh-uh."
As has been the case, coming to the realization that they aren't what everyone said they would be right now does not preclude the Cats from living up to the billing eventually. If they are to do that, the coming weeks will be crucial.
"We're sliding into Camp Cal time," Calipari said. "No classes, no timeframe, no four hours, 20 hours a week, none of that. It's like three practices a day. Do nice conditioning in the morning. Do practice in the afternoon. Come back in the evening and walk through and do some shooting and other things."

The Department of Defense announced today that it released one detainee from Guantanamo Bay, Cuba to Egypt. This movement increases the number of detainees who have departed the Guantanamo Bay detention facility to 247.
This movement included one detainee found no longer to be an enemy combatant by a Combatant Status Review Tribunal.
There are ongoing processes to review the status of detainees. A determination about the continued detention or transfer of a detainee is based on the best information and evidence available at the time. The circumstances in which detainees are apprehended can be ambiguous, and many of the detainees are highly skilled in concealing the truth.
During the course of the war on terrorism, the department expects that there will be other transfers or releases of detainees.
Because of operational and security considerations, no further details can be provided.
Prior to this transfer, DoD has transferred or released 246 detainees from Guantanamo - 178 for release, and 68 transferred to other governments (29 to Pakistan, five to Morocco, seven to France, seven to Russia, four to Saudi Arabia, two to Spain, one to Sweden, one to Kuwait, one to Australia, nine to Great Britain and two to Belgium). There are approximately 505 detainees currently at Guantanamo.

M. Meghan Davidson Ph.D., Sarah J Gervais Ph.D., Gary L Canivez Ph.D.
Whereas sexual objectification has most commonly been studied among
women, recent calls by counseling psychologists have urged for an
extension of objectification research to more fully include men (e.g.,
Heimerdinger-Edwards, Vogel, & Hammer, 2011). The present study
examined the factor structure of the Interpersonal Sexual
Objectification Scale (ISOS; Kozee, Tylka, Augustus-Horvath, &
Denchik, 2007) with men. Specifically, analyses included exploratory
factor analysis (EFA) with a sample of 287 college men and confirmatory
factor analysis (CFA) with an independent sample of 221 college men. A
correlated 3-factor structure was suggested by multiple criteria in EFA
and was further confirmed by CFA with a bifactor model illustrating the
objectification dimension for men.

From Window Magazine: 'Haiti: Home of her Heart'
Analiesse Isherwood ('11) first came to Haiti before the quake to bring toys to children and medical care in a mobile clinic. Now she has much bigger plans for the nation she says is the home to her heart. | Photo by D. Leal Olivas
It was intended to be the Christmas toy giveaway in the church. Christmas. Church. Cité Soleil. Boy. The nearly naked boy.
In Cité Soleil [site so-lay, Sun City] the poorest slum in Port-au-Prince, the chaotic capital of Haiti, Analiesse Isherwood ('11, Behavioral Neuroscience) came bearing gifts for the Christmas toy giveaway in the church. Boy. She saw the boy on the dirt street in Cité Soleil, naked but for a scrap of undefinable cloth. Plastic bottle on a string. Sitting in the passing tap-tap with her mission team, Analiesse Isherwood had the sack filled with toys – real, American toys – she had spent all her spare dollars on.
She was here to help boys much like that boy, nearly naked, playing with a bottle on a string.
"In my head I had seen this picture of a child accepting this toy and being emotional and touched and overjoyed at having this toy," Isherwood says, describing how the dolls and stuffed animals and trucks and balls were lovingly pyramided at the front of a church packed with Haitian children and their parents who had assembled for prayer and gifts from an American medical mission team. But instead of a touching moment, Isherwood says, the toy giveaway "ended up breaking out into a mob, and we had to be escorted out by security, shoved into our tap-tap and driven away as fast as we can."
As she was hurriedly stuffed into the tap-tap (think pickup truck with a tall canopy and benches in back), Isherwood remembers looking over her shoulder to see people throwing punches in a scrum over the toys.
And this was before the earthquake. Two weeks before. "I remember walking away confused at the face of poverty," Isherwood says.

Farm Equipment
In Fermilab's property there is a display of farm equipment. The equipment has been collected for the last several years. The display consists of a dump rake, a side delivery rake, a steel wheeled wagon, two plows, a grain drill, a windrower, a corn picker, and a fertilizer spreader. The equipment is painted green, yellow, blue and orange so the display is easy to spot.
Anybody can come see this display of farm equipment; it is found on the south side of Batavia Road near the Rt. 59 gate. It reminds us of how the land was farmed in the past.

it reminds me on a story I read on a blog... the lady had twins... and they were so small, that one day when she was shopping she put them both in one car seat (just for the shopping tripp not in the car)... then she threw a blanket over the seat because with twins you have this double attraction... one twin was laying with kind of crossed legs so there were three legs showing ;-)

you get the picture ;-)

no one bothered to ask anything...

but the looks ;-)

warmest regards from Germany

I love the tutorial. Thank you for sharing. The other day I was at Costco and a lady approached me and asked me to lift my blanket so that she could see my baby. I just don't understand what makes a stranger approach someone wanting to see a baby? It is a friggin baby. They are everywhere. You don'thave to see ALL of them! I told her "I'm sorry but I am actually afraid the bright lights could wake her up if I do." Lord knows a lady crazy enough to ask a stranger to see a baby is probably crazy enough to touch.Dreahttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623834231718414708.post-43846050116517972002013-03-13T22:37:22.086-07:002013-03-13T22:37:22.086-07:00I found this on Pinterest and just made one for my...I found this on Pinterest and just made one for my friend who's expecting a girl.

I actually recently purchased one from Carseat Canopy (that is the name of the company as well as what they call these clever, blankets that stay attached to your carseat) for $15, because I received a promo code for one. They regularly sell for $49.95!!! If I had known they were so simple, I would have just taken the project on myself.
Something a little different that this company did was line the inside with minky, for a super-soft, very warm version of what you have made. They also use buttons for attaching the straps, which might be more handy when your little one gets older and starts yanking on things. For our first baby, I just used a receiving blanket, but the idea of having it attached to the handle is awesome; no more fly-away blankets :)

I used two very bright and busy fabrics with bugs since my granddaughter seems enamored with them. I also put handle straps on both sides so the baby could see whichever side she wanted. My daughter puts it on the carseat when baby is not it in also, but when the seat is in the car, to keep the buckles from getting burning hot.

Response to keeping people's hands off toddlers-- develop your "mom look" now! I always had my hand on the stroller or shopping cart and if someone approached I would wait until they were close then swing it around so the baby was no where near the stranger and shoot them a "mom look." If anyone is then rude enough to question your actions you can choose to just ignore them or tell them that you prefer people to not touch your child, you are trying to keep her well.lc.moominhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-2623834231718414708.post-73810946608608479432011-07-19T11:08:09.233-07:002011-07-19T11:08:09.233-07:00When my daughter, now 21 was a baby, I was constan...When my daughter, now 21 was a baby, I was constantly plagued by "do gooders" thinking they knew what was best for her .. a coughing woman with a runny nosed kid in the drs office thought it was best that her hat come off so she reached over and started untying it ..

With cold/flu season, assorted germs and viruses being passed around (and my wonderful mother in law always making sure that we had something to drape over the car seat if it was even slightly chilly out... and we were talking walking less than 12 feet from her door to the car) I can see where these REALLY come in handy. When my boys were little (2 and newborn, they're now 13 and 11!) someone touched my youngest and ended up being punched by my then 2 year old (just a tad over protective of his baby brother LOL)Phoenixhttp://firstname.lastname@example.com

Hi, just got a Macbook Pro and really love it. I am still learning a lot though and am having a problem installing a network computer. My roommate has an HP Photosmart printer and is running it on an XP machine. I want to network to it, but when I connect to the printer, my model just comes up as generic. I have installed the software for the mac that came with the printer, but I cannot find my printer in the more printers list. Any ideas? I don't know how drivers work on the mac so I don't know what type of file to look for or if that is how the mac works in the first place. Any help would be appreciated.
Hp + Mac = PROBLEMS...
i had that same problem but then i fixed it. i just installed it as the printer closest to the model i had and it works goooooood.
the only drivers that are photosmarts I see are not working either. Any other help?
Check this out
I am not sure but this may help you. Good luck :)

Tee Monique
He takes me on vacation to a resort
just off the coast of Aruba. The hotel
room is amazing...everything in it is
white red and pink. From the
couches, rugs and comforter on the
bed... Im in aw as we walk through
the door. No one has ever cared or
loved me enough to do this
before..it's raining outside which
makes it even better for me.
Something about the rain that's just
enlightening..i open up the patio
door so that i can hear the rain more
clearly...he tells me to sit down and
relax we've had a long flight, while he
orders room service..I'm going to
take a bath..he already knows what i
like...i walk in the bathroom...my
bath water has already been
ran...with candles lit and rose pedals
adorning each spot that my eyes
land...my heart melts...wow..he
comes in behind me and opens the
window so there's a nice cool breeze
flowing in...he asks if i want him to
join me...i tell him of course i do
baby feel free...we enjoy one
another's company...how it's so
relaxing...i can't get over how good
this man is to me...all my guards are
let down...he bathes me from head
to toe...as i embrace the moment...i
wash him clean...he steps out grabs
a huge towel and wraps it around my
small frame...he carries me to the
bedroom...that's fully decorated with
all of my favorite things..from candle
scent to my favorite Vicky apparel
and footie socks all in my favorite
color ..i look him in his eyes and tell
him i Love him...your something
else...i changed into my lingerie he
picked out for me..he has great
taste...i ask him if he can hold me
while i enjoy that instant...he
obliges..but says but 1st he needs to
know one thing...i look at him and
asks and what's that? He pulls out a
5 carat ring!!...i gasp for air...i can't
breath..this is the moment i dreamt
about so many times...he looks me
in my eyes while getting down on
one knee...he says he's been
searching for me all his life...he
never thought he'd find someone to
complete the missing pieces in his
life...his life would mean nothing
without me and my girls in It...he
says would i give him the honor of
being his queen forever and become
his wife...my tears are flowing
endlessly..i cannot believe this is
actually happening to me...I've
always felt so unworthy and so
unwanted...this man is amazing, God
fearing, handsome, sexy, strong,
gives unselfishly and has waves for
days(lol). He has every attribute I've
prayed for, from his head to his
shoes... I'd be crazy not to say i

Gregg Home, Danville, Iowa, August 1914
I have been doing family history research since 1973, when I received some family documents from Mabel Heinson. A couple years later, I read Roots by Alex Haley, then found Gilbert Doane's Searching for Your Ancestors, and I was off and running. Three 'aunts' provided a wealth of information:
Later, I was helped by Frances Gregg's brother, Russell Boyd GREGG (1918-2009) (more), who graciously shared his time and his sister's research with me.
Each of these helpful people had gathered family histories and stories which have proven invaluable in getting started.

A rich, creamy, vegetarian take on the Italian dish.
7 cup well-seasoned vegetable stock, garlic stock, or porcini mushroom stock
3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
1/2 cup minced onion
Salt and freshly ground pepper
3 cups cooked black rice
2/3 cup Arborio rice
1 to 2 garlic cloves (to taste), minced
1/2 cup dry white wine, such as pinot grigio or sauvignon blanc
1/4 to 1/2 cup freshly grated Parmesan
1 lb Brussels sprouts, trimmed and quartered
1 tbsp grated lemon zest
1 tbsp fresh lemon juice
2 to 4 tbsp minced fresh flat-leaf parsley, or a combination of parsley and dill
Step 1: Heat 2 tbsp olive oil over medium-high heat in a wide, heavy skillet. Sear the Brussels sprouts just until beginning to brown, 3 - 5 minutes, stirring and shaking the pan. Transfer to a plate or bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
Step 2: Bring the stock to a simmer over low heat in a saucepan, with a ladle nearby or in the pot. Make sure the stock is well seasoned.
Step 3: Heat the remaining 1 tbsp olive oil over medium heat in a wide, heavy skillet or a wide, heavy saucepan. Add the onion and a generous pinch of salt and cook gently until it is just tender, 3 - 5 minutes. Do not brown.
Step 4: Add the rice and garlic and stir until the grains separate and begin to crackle. Add the wine. It should bubble right away, but it shouldn't evaporate too quickly. Stir until it is no longer visible in the pan.
Step 5: Begin adding the simmering stock, a couple of ladlefuls (about 1⁄2 cup) at a time. The stock should just cover the arborio rice, and should be bubbling, not too slowly but not too quickly. Cook, stirring often, until it is just about absorbed. Add another ladleful or two of the stock and continue to cook in this fashion, adding more stock and stirring when the arborio rice is almost dry. You do not have to stir constantly, but stir often and when you do, stir vigorously, because it's the stirring that coaxes the starch out of the arborio rice, and the starch is what makes risotto creamy. Add the Brussels sprouts after the first 10 minutes of stirring and cooking. When the arborio rice is no longer hard in the middle but is still chewy (al dente), usually in 20 - 25 minutes, it is done. Taste now and adjust seasoning.
Step 6: Add another ladleful of stock and the cooked black rice to the arborio rice. Stir in the Parmesan, lemon zest, juice, parsley and pepper to taste and remove from the heat. The mixture should be creamy (add more stock if it isn't). Serve right away in wide soup bowls or on plates, spreading the risotto in a thin layer rather than a mound.
Advance preparation:
The cooked black rice will keep for 3 days in the refrigerator. You can sear the Brussels sprouts hours before you begin the risotto.
You can begin up to several hours before serving. Proceed with the recipe and cook halfway through Step 4, that is, for about 15 minutes. The rice should still be hard in the middle when you remove it from the heat, and there should not be any liquid in the pan. Spread the risotto in an even layer in the pan and keep it away from the heat until you resume cooking. If the pan is not wide enough for you to spread the rice in a thin layer, then transfer it to a baking sheet. Fifteen minutes before serving, bring the remaining stock back to a simmer and reheat the rice. Resume cooking as directed.

Let's finish looking at the first basic need of a husband. *****[Seek your husband's advice first. A wife should demonstrate loyalty to her husband's wishes, goals, and standards. Therefore, when a need arises, you should seek your husband's guidance and counsel first, especially in regard to family issues, rather than seeking advice from other family members and friends.]When Kristine and I first met, I had swallowed this idea whole.

Debunking the Fourteen Basic Needs of a Marriage: Part d – Husbands are Omniscient and Wives MUST Give Sex Husbands
by Libby AnneIn Part 1 I discussed the definition of emotional incest, in Part 2 I discussed its relationship with Christian Patriarchy, and in Part 3 I pointed out just how easy it is to slip into the harmful emotionally incestuous dynamics (the "daddy's girl" effect). I am now going to turn to the problems and pain emotional incest causes.But first, I want to note that emotional incest can happen in any family (not just one involved in Christian Patriarchy) and that it can happen with sons as well as with daughters. In focusing as I have on daughters, and also on Christian Patriarchy, I have of necessity left a lot out.Emotional incest causes a multitude of problems, but I'm onl … [Read more...]

The discussion of his critique of emotional incest is not an endorsement of Schwyzer by NLQ.]My last two posts, and indeed all my thinking on the subject has led me to some conclusions about the ways that Christian Patriarchy and purity culture enable and even celebrate emotional incest. The following are the cliff notes:Christian patriarchy turns marriage from a relationship to an institution, effectively reversing the historical trend from business partnerships and heir insurance to bonds between two free agents based on love. Evangelical culture … [Read more...]
Millipede: Part One
by Millipede(Editor's Note: Millipede has been recounting her history of how she came to join a patriarchal lifestyle on our forum starting about six months ago. She's graciously agreed to allow her writing to be reposted here. We thank her for that!)To tell it in a nutshell; my husband and I became part of a reactionary milieu, joining a "movement" which addressed various issues such as gun rights, survival ism and so on. I still hold my beliefs pertaining to these issues and so this is not an indictment of "right wing extremism". In fact those early years were wonderful and I would gladly join such a group.I was not new to such views. Years before I even met my husband, I had … [Read more...]
Emotional Incest: The Mama's Boy and the Other Woman
by SierraI have already written about the ways that growing up in fundamentalist-evangelical culture made me especially vulnerable to covert incest from my father. There is a flip side to the father-daughter craze in Christian patriarchy, though. I am here to bring you two stories: and one of them isn't about me!In what would have been my high school years, a miracle happened. Sven, my best friend from my early childhood, came back to my church. We were fourteen. We had been estranged for about three years while his family lived in another state. But we quickly reconnected (not least due to my idealistic hopes that we could pick up where we left off, and some aggressive b … [Read more...]
Emotional Incest Part 2: The Botkins
by Libby AnneAfter discussing the definition of Emotional Incest in Part 1, I am now going to address the way the teachings of leading Christian Patriarchy organization Vision Forum and its close affiliates, the Botkins, essentially mandate emotional incest.Vision Forum teaches that adult daughters are to stay at home until they marry. More than that, it teaches that they are under their father's authority just as they will after marriage be under their husband's authority, and that well they remain at home it is their duty to adopt their father's "vision" in place of their own and serve as "helpmeets in training" to their father in preparation for serving as "helpmeets" to their futu … [Read more...]
Cereal Killers – Adventures in Recovery
by CaluluSometimes you really have to measure just how far you've come on your journey out of harmful theology. It's another part of your recovery, looking at how you handled a situation and then thinking back upon how this would have played out in your days of yore. Measure the difference and see where you instinctively line up now.This week brought another opportunity to do just that. We have ants.Here in the Virginia Piedmont it's Spring. Glorious Spring. Beautiful Spring. Yards filled with gracefully blooming daffodils and crocus, shoots of emerald green grass emerging from the red clay earth. Birds singing, trees leafing out, all that jazz. Spring here also means ants, lots … [Read more...]
Snipped! Part 4 The Freedom of Divorce
by Incongruous CircumspectionSeven years old was a big year for me. It was at this point that Mama and Dad's relationship boiled over and broke apart. Dad left and went to live by himself, leaving my siblings and I alone with Mama. At this point in my life, the alone time with Mama wasn't too bad. She hadn't learned yet, to take her immature "lashing out," and reconcile it with her interpretation of the Bible. She was just solidly abusive and then excitingly adventurous.At one point, Dad did try to come back and give the marriage another chance. I remember being asked to dry the dishes one evening. Dad had pulled our old black and white television from its corner, to the mid … [Read more...]
Debunking the Fourteen Basic Needs of a Marriage: Part 1c Men are Fragile, Women are Manipulative Fools
by Incongruous CircumspectionIn Part 1b we listened in as Gothard tried valiantly to describe the differing outlooks on life that, according to his understanding, men and women exemplify. It needs mentioning again here that Bill is relying on no practical experience. He has never been married. It makes sense that, being he has propped himself up to be a guru in every area of life, and the fact that there are hundreds of thousands of worshipers at his feet, he would make vast, overarching, easily wrapped up in a square box and neatly tied with a silk bow, conclusions for very complex issues in life. One of those issues is human nature. It cannot be pidgeonholed, no matter how many verses … [Read more...]
Thirtyone – Adventures in Recovery
by CaluluI was driving around the other day running a few errands and when I got back to my car I caught the tail end of a some random preacher speaking about the proper role of women in The Kingdom on local Christian radio. I didn't catch his name or the name of his ministry or sponsor but his message was loud and clear and made my blood boil. Bulls eye. Trigger hit. Buttons pushed.He started off speaking on the subject of what his ten year old daughter wanted to be when she grew up. She's crazy for gymnastics and he asked her that question about the future we all contemplate, what did she want to be when she grew up. Her answer to that question was that she would be a gymnastics … [Read more...]

Dear Brothers and Sisters,Has anyone noticed that the seals open before any trumpet starts to blow?Rev 8:1-2 And when he opened the seventh seal, there came silence in heaven about half-an-hour, and I saw the seven angels who before God have stood, and there were given to them seven trumpets. Rev 8:6 And the seven angels having the seven trumpets prepared themselves, that they might trumpet. Seed Sower
If you look at the apocalypse(John's revelation) as a wheel, the seals are the rim, the various visions and declarations and prophecies are the spokes, and the revelation of Jesus at the "ephiphana" or "parousia" of Messiah is the hub.In such a view, the trumpets and the bowls occur simultaneously, alternating towards the conclusion of the visions...... notice:second trumpet- 1/3 sea becomes bloodsecond bowl- all the sea becomes bloodthird trumpet- 1/3 rivers and springs become bloodthird bowl- all the rivers and springs become bloodfourth trumpet -1/3 sun darkenedfourth bowl- sun scorches men with intense heatfifth trumpet- poured on the throne of the beast they gnaw their tongues for painfifth bowl- Abbadon opened locusts as scorpions descend upon all who do not have the seal of God in their forheadssixth trumpet- four angels bound at the river Euphrates released, 1/3 mankind killed by warsixth bowl- poured out on the river Euphrates to dry it up and make it a thoroughfare for the kings of the eastseventh trumpet- in the days when the seventh trumpet is sounded the mystery of God is finished..."The kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our God and His Messiah and He will rule unto the age of the agesseventh bowl- "It is finished"And I saw another sign in the heaven, great and wonderful, seven messengers having the seven last(eshcatos) plagues, because in these was completed(teleo-filled up discharged) the wrath of God, (Rev 15:1) This being properly translated (IMO) would indicate that the bowls are the "completing" judgments- like in a one two punch, one being the trumpet, two being the bowl.I believe the two witnesses are calling down these plagues, trumpet (1/3) then bowl (filled up), trumpet, bowl, etc.The timeline of the narration(regardless of whether one considers this to be literal, typological, or both) is that from the opening of the sixth seal on to the seventh all visions(the trumpets, the bowls, the two witnesses, the giant messenger, etc.) are spokes in a wheel. The parousia/ephipania of Messaih is the hub- notice:Seventh trumpet- "the mystery of God is finished" (Behold I show you a mystery we shall not all sleep but we shal all be changed in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye, at the last trumpet" "for the trumpet shall sound and the archangel shout")- "the kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our God and His Messiah"Seventh Bowl- "It Is Finished", every mountain leveled every island flees away, Babylon judgedTwo witnesses- These have the power to shut up the sky, so that rain will not fall during the days of their prophesying; and they have power over the waters to turn them into blood, and to strike the earth with every plague, as often as they desire. (Rev 11:6)And those who dwell on the earth will rejoice over them and celebrate; and they will send gifts to one another, because these two prophets tormented those who dwell on the earth. (Rev 11:10)And they heard a loud voice from heaven saying to them, "Come up here"(first ressurection, in the cloud of overcomers, archangels shout, last trumpet, meet the Lord in the air) Then they went up into heaven in the cloud, and their enemies watched them. (Rev 11:12)Notice, immediately after the completion of the two witnesses course, the second woe(sixth trumpet) is past and the third(seventh trumpet) woe "comes quickly". Rev 11:14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly. Rev 11:15 And the seventh angel (third woe)sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. When Daniels sealed book is unsealed by the Lamb for John, we see as the seals are released, various visions of the unfolding completion of the plan for this age and glimpses in to both the "anakepholaomai" (Eph 1:10)...the "gathering into one" of all things; and the" apocastasis" (Acts 3:19) ...the restitution of all things (Rev 5:13 Rev 21:5,6). I personally believe the apocalypse that Jesus gave to John is both literal -towards the foreknown history of the end of the times(chronos) and seasons(kairos) of this age(aion)- and typological, revealing eternal truths always active in the NOW of the I AM-even as Daniels former revelation was also both literal and eternal(time transcending Now/I AM truth).When the "Mystery of God is finished" as it speaks concerning the seventh trumpet- the lid will have been taken off, the veil torn so to speak, for all the world, concerning the purpose of the sons of God, which is the reconciliation of all things(Romans 8:19-30), which will be completed in the ages to come(Eph 2:7)-but not as a mystery. It will be completed as the open declared administration of God (Eph 1:9,10). Paul refers to this mystery in his epistles, especially Ephesians and Colossians. (Eph 1:9,10; 3:3,4,9; 6:19 & Colossians 1:16-27 & Romans 11:32-36; 16:25,56). When the parousia/epiphania/apocalupto/musterion of Christ is fulfilled at the end of this age(in the DAY/NOW/I AM of God it is already finished....and we are seeing it in the eye of faith, upon whom the ends of the age have come in Christ), the veil over heavens will be rolled away(all men will see the purpose of God), the sign of the son of man will appear in the heavens(all men will see the Lordship/throne of Yashua Moschaich).

Encroaching development
When Camarillo residents crest the Conejo Grade and look down on "our side of the mountain," the magnificent view of the farmlands and orchards below is a welcomed sight. We are home!
Now, we are faced with the possibility that this treasured view may be transformed into industrial rooftops, housing tracts and additional traffic by the proposed Conejo Creek Development replacing our lush productive farmlands.
When we attended an informational meeting about this proposed development, we kept hearing the buzz phrase "community benefits." To my mind, the community benefits of the Conejo Creek Development pale in comparison to the costs to our community. The only benefits I can envision are an increased tax base for the city government and increased property values for the properties in question.
Please do not allow Camarillo to follow the path of Orange County. Preserve our diversity and the richness it brings to the citizens of Camarillo and to all who pass through our beautiful town.

Lives in Ridgewood, NY
Born 1980, Mt. Kisco, NY
At the onset of every new work is a familiar battle to reconnect with why I keep making dances. I started dancing at three years old and never stopped, which feels both remarkable and unremarkable at times. The only way this continues to be a relevant language, medium and identity for me is if I am questioning its necessity at every juncture.
As a choreographer, what I find along the way is that dance as a creative terrain is incredibly vast and challenging. It forces me to be extremely sensitive, intuitive and patient with my collaborators and myself. Within my dances I have discovered that I deeply love investigations of form. Thinking about movement in this way is highly generative, and a true reflection of my interior experience of the world. The resulting dances are often highly controlled, minimal systems designed to simultaneously distill and free gestures within the work. Beyond the aesthetic design, these detailed constructions are foundations for more unruly, confusing and personal content to subversively surface over time. Building this kind of beating heart within each structure is the challenge and obligation that grounds me as an artist.

Russell's Score Not Enough To Beat Bradford
- Release Date:
- October 5, 2011
- Contact:
- The Office of Sports Information
- (716) 649-7900 ext. 333
HAMBURG, NY – The Hilbert College men's soccer team suffered a loss to AMCC opponent Pitt-Bradford on October 5, 3-1. Hilbert's record drops to 0-11-1 for the season, and 0-3 in AMCC play. Pitt-Bradford improves their league record to 4-0, with an overall record of 4-5-1.
Eric Russell tallied his second goal of the season with the assist coming from teammate Ed Sarcione who one-touched it back for the rocket to the upper 90. Keeper Kamil Cislak recorded seven saves for the night. It was a physical game for both teams; the Panthers won the shots on goal battle (22-11) and corner kicks (12-6) but the obvious stat were the fouls called against Hilbert (18-5).
Pitt-Bradford had a balanced scoring attack, with goals coming from Korbin Keen, Shane Gebert, and Toby Abdul-Razaq (PK). All of the scoring for the game was done in the first period. Abdul-Razaq and Clint Corman each had an assist.
The Hilbert men will be back in action on Saturday, October 8 when they will host another AMCC challenger Mount Aloysius at 1pm.
Hilbert College, located in suburban Hamburg, N.Y., south of Buffalo, is a private four-year college founded in 1957 in the Catholic Franciscan tradition.

I-9 Audits
The number of I-9 audits are increasing. In just one day, 652 businesses nationwide were served with Notices of Inspection (NOIs) by the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). They affect every employer, whether you have foreign nationals working for you or U.S. citizens.
Our immigration lawyers have been involved in a large number of I-9 audits over the last few years. We help companies comply with I-9 regulations by reviewing their procedures and conducting internal audits. We also represent businesses involved in ICE worksite enforcement investigations and raids.
ICE (AUDITS) IN THE SPRING AND SUMMER: When Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issues a Notice of Inspection (NOI).
When Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) issues a Notice of Inspection (NOI) to audit a company's Employment Eligibility Verification forms (Form I-9 or I-9 form), the company will often panic and want to jump right into things. However, a careful response to an NOI can set the tone for the rest of the ICE audit process. This practice pointer is general in nature. It is important to note that an I-9 audit will be affected by a number of variables, such as the ICE office, the ICE officer who is assigned to the case, and local rules. Continue Reading....

New Ind. group pushing to defeat gay marriage ban
INDIANAPOLIS - A coalition of businesses and activist groups has begun its push to defeat an amendment that would write Indiana's same-sex marriage ban into the state constitution.
More than 200 people filled downtown Indianapolis' Artsgarden for Wednesday's announcement of the new group, called Freedom Indiana.
Campaign manager Megan Robertson says passing the amendment would strip gay and lesbian residents of their rights and harm Indiana's reputation. She calls the campaign against the amendment a bipartisan push.
"I view this as talking to people on how this impacts their neighbors, their friends and their families. And I think you would be hard-pressed to find somebody who doesn't have some sort of contact with gay Hoosiers and feels that the amendment goes too far," Robertson said.
The Republican-dominated Legislature passed the amendment in 2011, but the measure must pass a second time and be approved by voters before it's added to the state constitution.
Eli Lilly's director of corporate responsibility, Robert Smith, says passage of the amendment would hamper efforts by the Indianapolis-based drugmaker and other businesses to recruit top-notch employees.
"In that effort, we have to recruit and retain a diverse workforce community of the very best and brightest from around the world and recruit them to Indianapolis. These efforts are made more difficult when we have things like HJR6 contemplated," Smith said.
Opponents argued that the amendment violates religious freedoms and denies some what the law would allow others.
"Right now, the way the law is written, if I performed a same-sex marriage, I would be subject to penalties, even though my denomination and 15 others that publicly have affirmed same-sex marriage and who have performed same-sex marriage," said Rev. Marie Siroky with the United Church of Christ.
The Indiana Legislature and Indiana voters will likely have the final say on the controversial debate next year.

Hiker, cont.
She also leads spring and fall walking tours for
oasis, a national organization that offers educational and enrichment
courses for
mature adults. Her weekly nature-trail lectures attract hundreds
of New Mexico residents and tourists who line up to join the groups
of about 30 walkers she organizes for each of her one- to two-hour
treks into the Albuquerque bosque woodland and nearby ditch trails.
After the fires, however, the Rio Grande bosque areas were declared
off limits "until further notice." State police and
rangers patrolled all entrances to the long stretch of riverside
woodlands near the city.
Several days after the fires, Nancy pedaled her bike to a bridge
that firefighters and police had closed to traffic. "I walked
across the bridge. It brought tears. There was a foot of ash under
black skeletal trees. I thought: Will I ever [again] in my lifetime
see the ribbon of green along the Rio Grande?"
Nancy soon devised a way to access the closed-off burned area without
violating posted restrictions—by floating down the Albuquerque
River Basin on an inner-tube. In mid-July and again in August,
she and friends drove to the nature center park and hiked north
to a bridge, where she dropped her tube into the water. She drifted
1½ miles downstream toward the river, undaunted by a nasty
stretch of rapids that "dumped" her temporarily from
her tube. Her floats revealed heartbreaking damage—how "the
fire jumped the wide ditch, continued burning, jumped the bike
path, and continued burning weeds there." She nonetheless
experienced one "bright note." She told friends: "I
could hear birds singing through the blackened trees
. . . life goes on."
And so will Nancy's walks. Although entries
to the bosques remain blocked, trails along the adjacent drainage-ditch
are open. Her revised fall schedule for her oasis walking groups
includes two classes a week for six weeks along ditch-side trails
out of the burn areas. The oasis organization anticipates the usual
response of hikers.
Walks she took long ago stir happy memories for Nancy, especially
those that introduced her to the fields and woodlands near Hellertown,
only a few miles from the Moravian campus in Bethlehem. "Eastern
Pennsylvania," she reminisces, "was—and still
is—a great place for walking, and I still do it when we visit
the area. In 2001, while visiting Bethlehem for my 50th reunion,
I walked across the Lehigh River on the railroad tracks. The road
led right to the old buildings where I attended college."

It helped him visualize how hydrogen atoms of paired nucleotides interact with each other to form a symmetrical structure that fits the double helix model.
