Pope Benedict XVI: Rebuked Cardinal Roger Mahony will help pick successor
(LA Daily News) Los Angeles Cardinal Roger Mahony will be among those traveling to Rome next month to participate in a papal conclave to elect a successor to retiring Pope Benedict XVI.
The 210-member College of Cardinals elects the pope, but only those under age 80 can participate in the secret election.
"Surely one of his great legacies will be a continuing emphasis on the need for all Catholics to exercise their role as evangelizers in the world," the 78-year-old cardinal said in a statement. "His focus upon the new evangelization will continue to enliven all disciples of Jesus."
As a member of the College of Cardinals, Mahony recalled the April 2005 conclave in which he helped elect the German-born pope.
"I recall so clearly his words when he told the cardinals that he was choosing the name Benedict because of his fondness for the prayerfulness and the Rule of St. Benedict, and also because Pope Benedict XV served during a time of turmoil and wars across the world," Mahony said.
The previous Pope Benedict served from 1914-20.
The current pope, who cited failing strength of mind and body, would become the first head of the Roman Catholic Church to resign from the lifelong appointment in about 600 years. He appointed 67 of the 118 cardinals who will pick a successor, who needs two-thirds approval to be elected pope.
Mahony said he looked forward to thanking the pope in person "and to participate in the conclave to elect his successor." [more]

Is Cardinal Law under 80? Will he participate?
Yeah, like the Holy Spirit will really be talking to Mahoney when he is discerning which person to choose as the next pope. Was the Holy Spirit talking to him while he was passing all of those pedophile priests around?
If Cardinal Mahoney had true concern and love for the Church, he would exclude himself from this process. It is utter hypocrisy for this man to participate in the electionn of the next Pope, no matter who he is. But this demonstrates that the heirarchy believe that they can do whatever they want and simply because of their title can get away with it with no reprocussions at all. They are still in complete denial about the impact of this entire scandal. If the Cardinals had any backbone or conviction at all they would band together and demand that Mahoney and any other Cardinal who has been involved in the cover up of the sexual abuse of children not be included in the Conclave. That would begin to send the signal that they are beginning to change their ways and that there will be an impact on those who choose to do the wrong thing. As it stands, Mahoney and the rest are making a statement that they have no remorse for the harm they have done to God's little ones and to the Church – the People of God. Is it any wonder they have 0 credibility and are sinking even lower.
The real question is, why hasn't Mahoney been removed, or even prosecuted? Churches have been paying hundreds of millions of dollars as the price for these perverts. They don't belong in the Church. They belong in Hollywood or in the Obama Administration.
Mahoney probably will be prosecuted by civil authorities, but sadly not by Church hierarchy. But you are wrong to drag President Obama into this issue. He is a good and decent man who is doing a fantastic job of governing this country and protecting your right to say stupid things.
For sure Paul.
I am absolutely appalled that Mahoney, who should be defrocked and locked up in prison for the decades of harm he has caused to so many trusting, innocent sheep in betraying and covering up wide-spread priest sexual abuse in the church, is instead given the green light and a papal invitation to go vote for the next pope. One would think that Pope Benedict would want to avoid even the appearance of impropriety. It makes one wonder whether Ratzinger is "playing with a full deck."
P.S. Until the Cardinals elect a modern, all-inclusive minded pope, favorable to both married priests and women priests, The People of God should stay away from mass, contribute no more money, and picket in the streets with signs that say "No More Sexual Perverts" "No More Cover ups" "No more Medieval religion" "No more monarchies"
I go to Mass because I believe in the theology, not because I like or dislike others who are supposed to practice it's teachings.
Learn more about your religion than an 8th grade level.
You pegged it! Ratzinger is not.

Amid Floods, Gateway To The South Is High And Dry
By NPR Staff
Vicksburg, Mississippi Mayor Paul Winfield says the flooding is not as extensive as photos make it seem. He says residents are prepared partly due to his three pronged approach to flood management.

text: Well, no idea where we are at right now regarding the mess that is the SPL but thought we may as well start a thread for the new season. No season ticket for me this year. It's getting harder and harder to get back up the road for matches. Transfers we can deal with as and when they are confirmed (such as Ki to QPR) but I thought I'd start with our forthcoming friendly fixtures - 15th July - Stuttgart Kickers (A) 17th July - Vfr Aalen (A) 21st July - Ajax (A) 24th July - Norwich City (H) 27th July - Internazionale (H) 11th August - Real Madrid (A, Philidelphia) That's a pretty decent pre-season line-up. And of course we find out on Friday 20th July who our CL qualifying opponents will be.

proximal to the metacarpo-phalangeal joint, in a depression

Clears the nutritive level and cools blood.
Signs and Symptoms
cardiac pain, mental disorder, epilepsy,
gastritis, foul breath, fungus infection of the hand
and foot, vomiting, nausea
Laogong is a principal point
to revive consciousness and calm the spirit. It is
particularly useful in the treatment of febrile diseases
affecting the Heart that give rise to psycho-emotional
disturbances. According to ancient texts it was the
Pericardium channel that treated diseases of the Heart.
In fact, the Heart had no channel of its own at first.
Even though, the Heart channel was added later, Pericardium
points are still preferred to treat disorders of the
In 5 Elements theory both the Pericardium
and the Heart are Fire. Laogong is the Fire
point on a Fire channel making it particularly suited
for clearing fire from the Heart.
Fire may develop in the Heart a number
of ways including
i) stagnant Liver Qi
ii) deficient Kidney (water) failing to restrain Heart
iii) excess of any of the 5 cardinal emotions
iv) febrile diseases
Since the Heart is seen as the residence
of spirit (mind), almost any disharmony will give
rise to psychological and/or emotional disturbances.
Heart excess will give rise to ceaseless laughter,
while heart deficiency will give rise to profound
Heart fire is seen as an excess condition
agitating the spirit giving rise to symptoms like
a propensity to anger, mania-depression, and epilepsy.
The Heart is connected directly to the
root of the tongue and opens into the tongue. Heart
fire may manifest with tongue ulcers.
Since a branch of the channel travels
through the diaphragm into the middle and lower Jiaos
(the stomach and the intestines), plus being related
to the San Jiao channel
directly, Pericardium points have a strong effect
on the middle. Laogong is indicated where
fire disrupts digestion resulting in vomiting and
foul breath.
Laogong's ability to clear
heat from the blood and its location makes it suitable
to treat many skin disorders affecting the palms of
the hands including eczema, tinea, (a fungal infection
that causes white or light brown patches on the skin),
and scaling.
Finally, Laogong is particularly
important in Qi Gong practice
as it is one of the points practitioners learn to
breath through. It is also the principal point for
'emitting' Qi. In Reiki, Laogong is most
likely the point through which Dr. Usui channeled
Reiki energy.

BELLEFONTE—Jerry Sandusky will likely be in prison for the rest of his life.
That is unless he wins an appeal.
Sandusky said in court Wednesday he is innocent. He spoke out for more than 10 minutes, saying, "In my heart I know I did not do these disgusting acts."
Prosecutors called his speech ridiculous.
"His statement today was a masterpiece, a banal self delusion. Completely untethered from reality. And without any acceptance of responsibility," said prosecutor Joe McGettigan.
Sandusky's attorneys said there will be an appeal.
Attorney, former district attorney and Luzerne County Judge Peter Paul Olszewski said that appeal will be based on the fact that Judge John Cleland denied a request by the defense for more time to prepare for the trial.
"That's the major issue, it's a legitimate issue, it's not dreamed up, it's not smoke and mirrors. It's a real legitimate issue that's going to cause a headache for appellate courts," said Olszewski.
Olszewski said as a judge in the past, he has granted more time, called a continuance, even when he did not want to, so that there would not be grounds for an appeal.
"By granting one continuance you take this issue away and if that had been done in this case, there would be no issue," said Olszewski.
Whether or not he gets his appeal remains to be seen, but for many who were at Sandusky's sentencing, the fact that he maintains his innocence is hard to bear.
"Frustrating that there wasn't more accountability taken on Mr. Sandusky's part. It just really is a sad thing for the victims," said Cindy Brumbaugh of Bellefonte.

your access to joy never vanishes… @DanielleLaPorte
"Joy is the fibre of your Soul. It's the stuff of your essence. And since you, your Soul, can never be annihilated (yes, that would make you eternal and omnipresent), your access to joy never vanishes. Because joy is so foundational to your true being, every other state or emotion can rest on top of joy, it can accommodate everything." – Danielle LaPorte

profound sense that life is meaningful, joyful, vibrant and satisfying…
"Sustainable happiness is having a global and profound sense that life is meaningful, joyful, vibrant and satisfying. This type of happiness is more like contentment.
People often confuse sustainable happiness with cheerfulness. While positive emotions are aspects of happiness, true happiness is more authentic and complex than fleeting pleasure. It requires experiencing the full range of emotion in life, which inevitably includes moments of anger, disappointment, sadness and other negative emotions. These are natural and can be useful reactions. Negative emotions alert us to problems or dangers, helping us effectively navigate life circumstances. A major difference between happy people and their less happy counterparts is that happy people use negative emotions to help them find their way back to what's positive and possible." – Lia Steakley

Fourth annual Huntington Music and Arts Festival kicks off Saturday morning
HUNTINGTON — You may have been to the Ritter Park Amphitheater but you've likely never seen it or heard it the wild and wonderful way it will be Saturday.
Gates open at 11:30 a.m. Saturday, Sept. 28, for the fourth annual Huntington Music and Arts Festival that will fill the amphitheater with a steady flow of live music from an eclectic mix of 22 indie musical artists and the sights of visual art of all stripes from 25 artists. Toss in an interactive kids art area, the West Virginia Music Hall of Fame mobile museum, drink and food vendors, strolling magic, seven vendors (including Brand Yourself's on-the-spot T-shirt making booth), and visual art tapestries that color-wrap everything from the fence and trees to the stage, and you have the new, art-covered Music and Arts Festival.
Tickets are $15 advance, at Black Sheep Burrito and Brews, the V Club and from any band performing. Tickets will be $20 day of the show. Kids ages 12 and under get in free. And the HMAF ticket also gains the ticket-holder free entrance into HMAF indie concerts Thursday through Saturday in Huntington. (See the website for full listings of the pre-parties and after party concert).
"We are bringing in 14 brand new acts, so 14 of the 21 bands have never played the festival before," said Huntington Music and Arts Festival founder and organizer Ian Thornton. "Also, getting Jimbo (Valentine) on board as the art director has helped solidify the art side of it because he is so in tune with the indie art shows ... we have over 25 visual artists and a whole array of everything from textiles and painting to prints, pottery and crafts. There's really no specific genre so just like the music, it is a kaleidoscope of art and music this year."
All kinds of bands, under the sun
The lineup reflects the diversity of the area scene featuring a wide swath of regional bands — veterans such as The Carpenter Ants and The Greens, along with such edgy, contemporary acts as the rock-rap collaboration of New River Gorge-grooved jam band, The Yetti performing with Charleston's hip hop unit, The Dinosaur Burps called the Yetti Burps.
Detroit-based rockers, The Muggs will headline the fourth annual fest. Other bands on the HMAF include such indie rock units from around the region as: Morgantown's Phantom Six, Shepherdstown's Rozwell Kid, Charleston's Farnsworth, Nashville's The Dead Leaves, Ashland's Gillum brother-built eclectic jazz unit, Gillumesh, Nashville's Coyotes in Boxes, and Kentucky songwriter Tyler Childers.
Paintsville, Ky. native singer/ songwriter Tyler Childers lives in Lexington, but is well known in these parts as his songs, like "Charleston Girls," testifies.
This is the third year Childers, who is soon to release a new foursong EP live at Red Barn Radio with his band Highwall.
"It's a pretty awesome one-day, all-out event," said Childers, who has had his songs featured on a national edgy country compilation put together by Shooter Jennings.
"At this festival you get so much different music and I like getting to be a part of it and getting back there and just hanging with all those guys. I've met a lot of friends there and it's cool to be in the same spot with all of them and get to play with them. You always get to meet a lot of people you probably wouldn't run into at one of your regular gigs too, so it's good for networking and meeting new musicians too."
An edgy Valentine of art
Thornton, who plays in the indie rock unit AC30 and helps manage Black Sheep Burrito and Brews, said this year more than ever, there has been great community support as 23 sponsors are now on board.
HMAF 2013 will also include an even greater emphasis on visual art with art director Valentine and friends bringing their art spin to the entire space. An avid festival goer, Thornton said he wants to create a special place, a one-day creative and fun-filled getaway of music, art, friends and food, in the outdoors right here in the city.
"We're really expanding the art around the festival so when you are walking into the gates you are in a new place," Thornton said. "You are not just at Ritter Park to see bands but we'll have big long tapestries wrapping trees, and on the stage and along the fences. We've bought 200 sticks of incense from Scent From Heaven that will be burning throughout the day. We're making that step forward this year to really make art happen. We want this to be an event in every sense of the word.
It's a long day so we want to keep them there and keep them engaged.
We're really excited about all of it, things like the Hall of Fame trailer." Thornton is referring to is the West Virginia Music Hall of Fame mobile museum. Donated by Little Jimmie Dickens, the 28-foot trailer features sounds of famous West Virginians including Bill Withers ("Some Kind of Wonderful"), Maceo Pinkard (the Harlem Globetrotters theme song "Sweet Georgia Brown") and Kanawha County native Kathy Mattea's autographed album and gown worn to the White House.
Also, new this year is an interactive area for kids. The Little Artists of HMAF area will feature nine different art stations from upcycling and cartoon lettering to bubbles and candy art. There will also a costume-filled photo booth (with costumes and accessories from Magic Makers) where folks can get their funky and fun pics taken then upload them through Instagram.
"We've got a snap-your-own photo Photobooth with all kinds of costumes and dress up stuff from Magic makers," Thornton said. "We just got the art corner worked out.
That will be on the far right when you come in by the treeline. We've got two tables set up and nine different lessons between 1 and 8 p.m.
It's all children-based and easy stuff. Something they could learn to do there and then be able to do it again in the future." And last but not least, former Marshall University football player and magician, Joey Stepp, will be doing up-close street magic all day as well as doing balloon animals for the kids. There will also be more than 24 dozen visual artists, including Drunken Mermaid Oddities, Keshelle Jewelry, Brand Yourself, Marshall's Campus Activities Board and Spiral Light Productions doing tie-dye and band merchandise as well.
HMAF give back
Also new this year, the festival will also be giving back to the arts in the community. Working with Latta's and Route 60 Music, HMAF Give Back will give a $250 gift certificate to two local elementary schools for visual art and music programs. "Through two different missions we are attempting do our part to help ensure that young children in the Huntington area continue to receive music and art education and to contribute to Communities In Schools, a national dropout prevention program, said Thornton. "This year we started the HMAF Give Back Program," Thornton said. "Partnering with Latta's and Route 60 Music we are donating a total of $500 to the Music/Art programs of two local elementary schools. Spring Hill Elementary will receive $250 in art supplies while Altizer Elementary will receive $250 in music supplies.
"We also hope to grow these amounts for next year through a few different resources," he added.
"Ten percent of all festival and band merchandise as well as 10 percent of all art sold at the fest will be donated to next year's fund. We will also be going green and recycling all used cans, with bins provided by Adkins Recycling, with the raised funds also contributing to the new program. We hope to double our contribution for next year." Thornton said they are also contributing 5 percent of gate proceeds to the Huntington chapter of Communities In Schools, a nationwide network of passionate professionals working in public schools to surround students with a community of support, empowering them to stay in school and achieve in life.
"Hopefully, next year we might be able to give back $800 or more," Thornton said. "I think that shows that we are here, and that we are not just here to make a dollar. We are made out of Huntington. It's pretty much Huntington coming together to make this event. It is through patrons that we are able to make it happen. It's all about showing some gratitude.

Claims available in
Description (OCR text may contain errors)
e. M. YOUNG El AL 1 1,928,583
GAME PADDLE Filed Dec. 10, 1932 wit Patented Sept. 26, 1933 GAME PADDLE ing, Memphis, Tenn.
Guy M. Young, Joe P. Bowers, and Roy W. Zear- Application December 10, 1932 Serial No. 646,676
2 Claims. (01. 27397) This invention relates to devices for playing games and particularly to paddles of that character in which a ball is attached to the paddle by a string and in which the object of the game is to so manipulate the paddle and ball that the "ball will strike against a selected portion of the paddle, if possible.
' The general object of the present invention is to provide a paddle of this character having a ball attached thereto by means of a string and having at the centerof the paddle, or at any other desired point, a plunger against which the player endeavors to project the ball, the plunger in turn being operatively connected to a bell clapper so that when the ball strikes the plunger, the bell will ring.
Our invention is illustrated in the accompanying drawing, whereinF- Fig. 1 'is a longitudinal sectional view of the game paddle constructed in accordance with our invention;
Fig. 2 is a face view of the paddle;
Fig. 3 is a rear face view of the paddle;
Fig. 4 is a fragmentary section through the center of the paddle and through the bell;
Fig. 5 is an edge elevation of a modified form of our paddle.
Referring to the drawing-10 designates the paddle generally which is provided with the handle 11 and with the approximately circular paddle portion 12.
I A ball 13 is attached to one face of the paddle by means of the elastic 14 which is shown as being attached to the face of the paddle by means of the staple 15. Extending loosely through the center of the paddle portion 12 is a plunger 16 which may be in the form'of an ordinary rivet having the relatively wide head 17 and at its other end being spread over a small washer 18. The shank of this rivet has a length greater than the thicknessof the paddle so that when the ball strikes the rivet, the rivet will be moved inward 'in the manner of a plunger. Mounted on therear face of the paddle at any desired point is aasuppor't 19'which is shown as a strip of metal bent into an approximate V-shape and having its'extre'mities attached to the face of the paddle.
as by tacks or brads 20. This support carries upon it the bell 21. Also attached to this face strip of resilient metal held at one endby' the tacks 23 and at the other end having a slight head. The resilience of this metal strip acts to force it toward the paddle and force the plunger 6 to have the ball strike the plunger,- forcing the of the paddle is a tappet 22 consisting of a thin plunger inward and ringing the bell. The object of the game, of course, is to ring the bell as many times as possible without a miss.
Obviously certain details of this construction might be modified without departing from the spirit of the invention as defined in the appended claims.
Thus, for instance, while we design that the paddle'shall be made of ply wood and have so shown it, we do not wish to be limitedto this nor 1 to the particular form of the bell 21 nor the means for supporting the bell except 'as called for in the claims. Thus the clapper 22 might be omitted, in which case the plunger 16 would be disposed to impact against the gong as illustrated in Figure 5. In this instance, the plunger strikes the bell directly and the plunger is held forward by a cone-shaped coil spring" 24 which is disposed around the plunger under its head and against the face side of the paddle; Neither do I wish to be limited to'the use of a bell as a signal showing that the ball has hit the mark as some other noise producer might be disposed behind the plunger to be sounded thereby.
We claim: v
1. A paddle game of the character described, comprising a paddle having a handle and a paddle portion, an elastic cord attach'ed to the faceof thepaddle and carrying a ball, a "plunger movable through the center of the paddle portion and having a head on'the face of the paddle and with which the ball is adapted to contact, a V-shaped support mounted upon the back of the paddle and carrying a bell and a clapper attachedto the rear face of the paddle and resiliently bearing against 5 the plunger and urging it outward, the clapper being arranged to strike the bell when the plunger is forced inward by contact with the ball.
2. A game paddle of the character described, having a handle, a paddle portion, a ball, a string connecting the ball to one face of the paddle portion, a plunger mounted for movement through the center of the paddle portion and having an enlarged head on that face of the paddle to which the cord is attached against which the ball may impact, a spring attached to the rear face of the paddle portion and down over the plunger, the free end of the spring constituting a bell clapper and a bell 'mounted upon the rear face of the paddle and against which the end of the spring clapper is adapted to engage when the plunger is struck by the ball.

Two games in, Arnott fits just fine on the second line
- Arnott celebrates his game-winning goal Thursday night. (Photo: Associated Press)
After Thursday night's 3-2 win over the St. Louis Blues, we are officially two games into the ongoing operation to resuscitate the Washington Capitals' offensive punch. In those two games, Jason Arnott has shown exactly why Capitals General Manager George McPhee was willing to send David Steckel and a 2012 draft pick to New Jersey to secure the Stanley Cup winner's services.
Indeed, Arnott's arrival has paid immediate offensive dividends for Washington, benefits far beyond the wildest dreams of even the trade's staunchest defenders, perhaps even McPhee himself.
First there was Tuesday night's game against the Islanders, when Arnott spared his new team a ghastly loss in their first post-trade game by picking out Brooks Laich in front of the net for the equalizing goal in Washington's eventual 2-1 overtime win. As I wrote that night: "[W]ould someone like Marcus Johansson have had the composure to pick out Laich the way Arnott did? Perhaps, but even the most youth-obsessed fan would concede that Arnott was probably a better bet in that situation than the Swede or any of his contemporaries."
Then on Thursday night, with the clocking ticking toward the Capitals and the Blues having to play another five minutes of hockey, Laich poked the puck off of Roman Polak's stick at the red line and dished to Alex Semin. Semin and Arnott, sprung on a 2-on-1, broke into the St. Louis zone together. With both defeseman Barrett Jackman and goaltender Ty Conklin playing an expected Semin shot as the rush reached the top of the face-off circle, Arnott simply turned his body into a shooting position and waited for the cross-slot pass. Semin waited until Jackman went down on his hands and knees on the ice before sliding the puck over to Arnott, who duly one-timed a slap shot past Conklin for the winning goal.
"Jason is just an experienced body," said Capitals coach Bruce Boudreau about the goal. "When Semin gave him a really good pass, [Arnott] didn't have to make a play, he just had to shoot the puck, because he was already in a shooting position, which I thought was really good to see."
For the second game in a row, Boudreau played Arnott, Laich, and Semin together on the same line, and the results (small sample size not withstanding) have been impressive. The new trio has recorded two of Washington's five goals in that span, and combined for a +6. Meanwhile, Marcus Johansson, freed of the pressure of centering the intense Laich and mercurial Semin, has been thriving on a notably fast-paced third line between Jason Chimera and another new acquisition, Marco Sturm.
Not that any of these combinations are likely to survive Boudreau's notorious tinkering very long. "Who am I kidding?" Boudreau half-joked Thursday night. "I'm going to change it at one point, but hopefully for a while I can keep [Arnott, Laich, and Semin] together."
"Playing with Semin and Brooks, we're still creating a little chemistry, getting to know each other," said Arnott after the game. Judging by the results so far, this is one chemistry experiment Boudreau should think really hard about messing with.
My Three Stars
Jason Arnott-See above.
Michal Neuvirth-Made 25 saves to pick up his 21st win of the season, a franchise record among rookies.
Matt Hendricks-Won a battle in the corner to set up Washington's first goal. Along with Dennis Wideman, led the Caps in hits (five).

Eatless in Seattle
Ok, so the pun is a bit old, ok way old, but I am traveling to Seattle for the very time this weekend and am looking for great food in the downtown area or places easily accessible by public transport. I'm not picky, wait I am. I plan to eat and shop my way through downtown so any suggestions in either catagory is welcomed. Thanks.
This is a broad question, and there are many great places of various prices and cuisines. Pike Place Market is of course a must for your itinerary, but even then there are so many places to choose from. If you puruse this board and add more specific questions, you will get really helpful answers! We love bragging about our chow-worthy city!

PAWLEYS ISLAND - The bishop of the Episcopal Church is attending an educational conference in South Carolina, as is the president of the church's House of Deputies.
Presiding Bishop Katharine Jefferts Schori and House of Deputies President Gay Clark Jennings are keynote speakers at the event being held on Saturday at Holy Cross Faith Memorial Episcopal Church in Pawleys Island. The conference is titled "Enthusiastically Episcopalian in South Carolina."
The Episcopal Church in the state has been rent by schism. In 2012, a group of conservative churches split with the church.
Saturday's meeting is sponsored by the Episcopal Forum, a group that supports The Episcopal Church in South Carolina, a diocese of more 30 parishes, missions, and worship communities that has remained with the larger denomination.

When we worship, we enthrone the precious blood-stained Lamb of God. Something amazing happens; we join with the multitudes around the throne of the Lamb. We are not just worshippers who sing our praises here on earth; instead, we join with the saints, the angels, the heavenly hosts, tens of thousands crying out Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lamb that was slain.
When we draw near in worship, the Lord comes and builds a throne of His glory and His presence, right in the midst of us. It is amazing to think that God Almighty is searching, seeking out his worshippers who will worship in Spirit and in truth (John 4:23). What an honour to be worshippers that he seeks.

This is one of the best CD's I've heard in a long time. It is true worship before God and brings His presence close. I love it and have had it in my car for ages....
This is probably the best worship Cd i have heard in many years. if you want to be led into the presence of God then these songs carry the anointing to do just that. Brilliant !
This album not only carries a real anointing but is of a superb quality. The musicianship on it is fantastic and the collection of songs is top-rate. There are no weak tracks on this album but every one takes you into the presence of God. Awesome stuff!
Have recently purchsed Enthroned - loving it!!!
Nice to hear unrushed worship....THANK YOU!
I LOVE this album - such a blessing :-) Definitely my current fave worship CD
This is the best album I've come across in a LONG time. It's fresh every time I listen to it (which is lots!) and is fantastic for personal worship times. Sarah really leads you into the heavenlies. I'm not bored of it yet & I've had it over a year now!
I love this album, particularly the first track - breathe on me. If it was a cassette it would be worn out by now the number of times I've played it! It carries an anointing which I've not experienced through many albums. Money well spent!
So much more than a collection of songs leading to an encounter with the living God. God is looking for those who worship in spirit and truth and if you are one of those, buy this CD!
Great album which never fails to lead into the presence of God
just wonderful:)
thank's clay's for every thing... your maria
i miss uuuuuu
Powerful worship! Keep up the good work!
The music is great!!!It is heard over the borders of GB
The sound of worship goes out also to Germany and on and on!!!

Cardamom-Plum Jam from 'Little Jars, Big Flavors'
In my Berkeley neighborhood this time of year, plums are falling from trees, staining the sidewalks, and making up a huge part of my fruit intake. This massive influx of plums means it is the perfect time to turn the quickly ripening fruit into jam. This cardamom-plum version in Southern Living's Little Jars, Big Flavors is an elegant extension of a basic recipe. More

Brendan Rodgers has challenged Jordan Henderson to use tonight's Capital One Cup tie at West Bromwich Albion as an opportunity to stake his claim for regular first-team action.
Henderson has made five appearances for Liverpool so far this season, though only one of them has been in the Barclays Premier League when he was introduced as a second-half substitute against Manchester United on Sunday.
The 22-year-old is likely to figure at the Hawthorns tonight, however, and Rodgers has urged him to show him what he's capable of.
"It is about the balance in the team. We have got one controlling midfielder in Joe Allen," explained the boss.
"We have got Steven Gerrard, who is a great player and speaks for himself. He has got a goal in him, he has got influence and he has got stature. He carries his qualities on the field. Then we have got Jonjo, who is a goalscoring midfielder.
"But Jordan is working his socks off every day. He has got a great appetite to learn; he lives his life right and he doesn't do stupid things off the pitch. He works hard, he works well. Really it is just games like (tonight) that offer me the opportunity to see him.
"Can he affect the game going forward but play also with that tactical discipline, which keeps us nice and strong in the middle of midfield?"

Editor-in-Chief Tanya Steel was in town recently to promote Epicurious.com, home of 30,000 recipes, at the farmer's market at the San Francisco Ferry Plaza. I thought I'd stop in to get her thoughts about today's food writing scene.
Over spearmint tisane (for me) and coffee (for her) from Blue Bottle, she said she tries to keep her ear to the ground, stay ahead of trends, and innovate. To do so she scans 10 to 12 blogs and aggregate sites from around the country every day, including The Food Section, Cold Mud, and newspaper food section blogs. Her staff scours social networking sites.
It must be working. Her latest accomplishment, the free Epicurious app, available for the iPhone, iPad, Droid and other mobile devices, has more than 2.5 million copies in circulation, making it a leading app.
When asked how today's food writer could get ahead, she said every writer should be learning "on a parallel track." You must be "platform agnostic," she advised."Think of yourself as a brand and expand your writing into every platform."
There's no such thing as enough, she continued. Writers should "have a website and blog every day. Whatever excites them is what they should blog about." Food writers should also be building up expertise at the same time. So "if you're passionate about meat, take classes on butchering and grilling."
Today's writers have to be tech and social media savvy as well. "Everyone should know what SEO is, how to submit to Digg, how to Twitter when you put something up."
Steel, a former magazine editor turned website editor and apps developer, walks her talk. She has also pushed into a yet another new area, publishing her first cookbook. For less experienced writers who want to write books, however, she's big on self publishing because there are "so many ways to sell content online." "You could bypass any publisher and create an e-book, then sell it on Amazon, and with the right keywords and tags you could be on the front page." She also suggested food writers explore self publishing through sites like Blurb.
When asked about freelancing possibilities for Epicurious.com, she said the daily online food publication already uses "a ton of freelancers," who write about restaurants, wine and drinks, travel and health. They include many writers she has known from her print days as an editor at Food & Wine and Bon Appetit. "We try to go with people who are experts in their field, people who have a track record and are well established," she said. Like other national magazine editors, she rarely takes a chance on a new writer.
Is her advice doable or implausible? Exhausting or exhilarating? Profitable or income-starved?Let me know your thoughts.

15 Responses to "Epicurious EIC Recommends You Do It Yourself"
Love your post. I'm about to submit my upcoming 400 recipe cookbook to my publisher in September. It's very difficult to do a book, freelance, blog and be involved in social media. I'm doing all of these things every day, and great things are happening. I think all of her recommendations are fabulous!
[…] This post was mentioned on Twitter by eatlivetravelwrite, Dianne Jacob. Dianne Jacob said: Epicurious.com chief's advice to food writers: Do it yourself. New post @ http://bit.ly/bmUhtg […]
she certainly has some great advice.however, i am not sure the "expand your writing into every platform" works for everyone. in my case, i was featured in a national newspaper and asked to write for a national magazine because my writing (my blog) had a very specific focus-my heritage (my blog is written in a food memoir-style). if i had been blogging everyday about things which excite me (as per her advice) i am not sure i would have been able to publish any work. there are so many fascinating bloggers out there- they have gorgeous photographs up, they write very well, they are well-traveled- so the competition is very stiff. in my personal experience, and this may not be the case for others- the fact that i wrote about something extremely specific, has been very helpful in helping me advance as a food blogger/writer. best, shayma
Thank you for sharing this great info, I find it very useful as an aspiring food writer. I think that writing about what your passionate about is the best way to get started in food blogging.
Terrific post. 2.5 million copies of her app? Now that is impressive. Off to download it onto my iPad.
Is Digg still relevant? I don't even think twitter is that useful anymore. To me, Facebook has emerged as the only social site worth being on. Twitter is good for news people though, but mostly the posts become meaningless there.
I agree that you have to get an expertise. It makes you stand out from the crowd.
I haven't found blogging specifically to be profitable, but it's a good way to get your name out there and give you some credibility.
I also recommend a book by Strunk and EB White, Elements of Style. Many bloggers need to clean up their writing.
I think that there are definitely people who need to clean up their writing, but it also hard to edit yourself. When I was writing at a university, everything had to go by at least three pairs of eyes before it went out the door.
Dianne, I keep missing you! I couldn't make it to your class due to travels, and it sounds like you met Tanya right before I got to the booth. Hopefully I can catch up with you at IFBC.
But to answer your prompt, I think that Shayma makes a great point. The issue with blogs, *particularly* food blogs, is that they are very individual. Blogs about blogging have lots of inter-connectivity and guest posting, while food blogs are usually single-author platforms.
I think what Tanya meant about being platform agnostic is not just that you should also have a blog, but that you should be writing online, and a blog is a starting point. Writing for other online magazines or larger food sites will give you more creditability with print editors. And then there is the blog-to-book option as well.
Maybe it was simply convenience, but I find it interesting that you met Tanya at a farmer's market. Certainly farm-fresh food has become a trend to watch. To get back to Shayma's point maybe part of the reason Tanya urged a cross-platform approach is that food has the potential to apply to so many other markets that aren't specifically identified as "food writing." Profiles of chefs, healthy eating, picky eating all have potential markets beyond foodie zines. And those articles might point readers to your blog. Interesting the mention of Elements of Style, Ted Koppel was interviewed on Talk of the Nation on NPR last week and said exactly the same thing. Better dust off my copy!
Great post and thanks for the suggestions and links. In my opinion, recipe writing/developing and publishing a cookbook are separate from food writing, whether it be food stories/memoirs, restaurant reviews and other types of food writing. I'm not sure that publishing a cookbook is quite the same as getting food writing published, whether in magazines or in book form – although, Dianne, you are much more of an expert than I. I agree with Shayma that the non-blog writing takes time away from our blogs as does the time to compose submission letters/queries, etc. I try and post on my blog as often as possible but there just isn't time anymore to post as often as I would like or should. I have been toying with the idea of self-publishing a first book and Tanya's advice has me thinking about it again and maybe in a more positive light. Thanks for this thought-provoking post!
Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.

Poison pulsed through
the veins of the earth.
Pumped by the Homo sapien sapiens.
A wretched species charmed
by the pleasures of evil.
With a gluttonous hunger for destruction.
In the human`s prime.
War was a natural tune
to be danced to.
The omnipresent disco blast of a bomb.
A rhythm of hate.
Seas rose, devouring those below level.
Forests vanished leaving the world breathless.
Oceans turned into graveyards.
The mass murderer called Oil spill.
Beautiful rhino and elephant insecure
on an earth they called home too.
Pursued for their precious ivory.
Africa lost her Big 5
India her tiger
China her panda.
To entertain a fickle kind- man.
I was human too.

Cleveland Better Business Bureau to publish 6,000+ free, detailed consumer complaint reports
Business rating scale 0-10 added
CLEVELAND - The Better Business Bureau Serving Greater Cleveland is "pulling back the curtain" and publishing detailed content of consumer complaints in its free BBB business reports.
BBB made this change in response to feedback from consumers. Research showed consumers were looking for more detailed information on the types of complaints companies receive and how those complaints were ultimately resolved. This change also gives companies more of a voice in the complaint process, allowing consumers to directly observe their response to customer issues.
"We believe this will provide consumers with a unique and highly valuable resource when making purchase decisions" said BBB President David Weiss
BBB began publishing complaints in October 2011.
"We now display detail on about 6,000 complaints filed, and going forward expect to publish detail for about 9,000 complaints per year," said Weiss.
"Based on inquiry activity since the change, we think consumers are excited by it," Weiss said.
The 553,000 requests for BBB reports year-to-date through July, 2012 is up 20% from 462,000 for the same period last year.
Previously, complaints were classified into twelve categories with the type of each complaint being reported, along with basic information on how that complaint was closed. Weiss notes that the complaint detail "gives viewers a chance to see what's 'behind the curtain,' to judge the merit of the complaint for themselves, and importantly, to see exactly how the company responded to and handled the complaint." Private information such as names and addresses of consumers is redacted.
BBB reports on (and will publish) complaints for three years from the date they are filed.
Consumers can also post and read customer reviews
A new feature allows consumers to post customer reviews and rate a business on a scale of 0-10. BBB quietly began offering this option last August and currently receives several reviews each day.
"We understand that publishing customer reviews is a tricky business, and have procedures in place to exclude posts from people who are not customers of the company, or who appear to be posting bogus 'positive' reports," notes Weiss. "We like the interactive nature of this feature, and since our reporting has traditionally been complaint-oriented, wanted to give consumers a chance to say nice things about a business."
To submit or read a customer review, go to http://www.clevelandbbb.org and look up BBB's Business Review on a business. There is a "Customer Reviews" tab and a link to "Submit a Customer Review" in the report.
Unlike many other customer review sites, as soon as a review is sent to BBB, a copy is emailed to the business so they can provide a response – and notify BBB if the reviewer is not an actual customer.
"Consumers crave granular information they can trust. BBB complaint detail and customer reviews give people seeking trustworthy businesses more information than they'll find anywhere else."
BBB provides free reports on over 4,100,000 businesses throughout North America – including those that are not BBB accredited. To search for trustworthy businesses, go to http://www.clevelandbbb.org
BBB services are supported by over 2,700 BBB Accredited Businesses throughout Greater Cleveland which adhere to BBB's rigorous business practice standards.

Mozilla announced on their official blog today that they're making serious preparations for a Firefox mobile OS. They have a hardware partner on board to make phones for them, and several worldwide mobile carriers backing them.
The OS itself will try to follow in the Firefox browser's footsteps, with a fully open code base built on HTML5. The blog post states that the OS "will power the launch of smartphones built entirely to open Web standards, where all of the device's capabilities can be developed as HTML5 applications."
The first devices to run the OS will be sporting Qualcomm Snapdragon CPUs, which are a popular smartphone CPU option currently found in the American Galaxy S III, among other things. Brazilian mobile carrier Vivo will be the first to bring the devices to market in "early 2013."
Mozilla says the OS will scale well for "entry-level hardware," and stresses the importance of removing middleware, which is good news for anyone who's ever had TouchWiz woes. It seems that at least at first, the OS will be geared towards entry-level phones almost exclusively, with a Sprint exec being quoted by Mozilla as saying "Firefox Mobile OS can help us drive an HTML 5-based platform for creating lower cost smartphone options for […] customers."
The OS itself sounds quite interesting, with the applications all being built through the HTML5 developer tools. This should make for a pretty accessible development model, and easy ports of a lot of current browser content. The down side is that Mozilla's hardware partner is TCL Corporation, a.k.a. the Chinese company responsible for the "Alcatel One Touch" line of mediocre smartphones.
Given the emphasis on entry-level phones, and the less-than-desirable hardware partners, it seems like there might not be a real flagship smartphone running the Firefox OS, to compete with top-of-the-line powerhouses like the iPhone and the Galaxy S III. At least not in the OS' launch hardware lineup.
Nonetheless, it will be interesting to see another major OS on the market, especially one built by someone with the chops that Mozilla has. If the software is successful, perhaps more advanced hardware will follow later. We'll be keeping our eyes peeled.
