Dr. Sepideh Said's Ratings
I have visited numerous doctors for my leg. Faced with the choice of an epidural, I called a friend and asked her if she had ever been to an accupunturist. She recommended Dr. Said because she went to her for a series of neck treatments and NEVER, EVER HAS HER NECK PAIN RETURNED! After a series of treatments, I have experienced more mobility. The Orthopedic physicians that Dr. Said has recommended are top notch. She assures me that we are going to see my pain through to absoluteness! What more can you ask for in a physician?

Dr. Said is AMAZING! I went to my primary care doc,2 physical therapists AND 2 other acupuncturists before coming to Dr. Said. I FINALLY felt relief from all the pain I had from a pinched nerve in my cervical spine (AND I had a sprained ankle}! Dr. Said is the BEST!

My Path Out of Christianity
About a year ago now, I began a major personal project. As a devout Christian husband and father of six children, I was unhappy with the "drifting" I had been doing. We had not attended church regularly for over three years at that point, and while we were still actively involved in a weekly small group/Bible study, my disillusionment with Evangelical Protestantism was such that while I remained committed to my belief in God and my faith in Jesus as my redeemer and savior, Christian faith tends to atrophy and even die when it is not connected to a the support systems of church and faith-based community, in my experience.
The "major personal project", then, was the rebuilding and fortification of my faith and beliefs in such a way that I could, along with my family, "swim the Tiber", and become committed, permanent members of the Roman Catholic Church. I embarked on the effort with some enthusiasm; while I still had some major issues to confront in order to become a Catholic, fully committed in good conscience, these issues seemed surmountable, and at the conclusion of this effort, I expected to begin RCIA with my family, and begin the happy process of settling into our new "spiritual home", where we belonged all along, as Catholic friends regularly reminded me.
I took a "first principles" approach, as a means for really doing the thinking and reasoning that would lay the foundation for decades to come as a faithful, enthusiastic and effective Catholic. For the first time ever, I think, I purposely put everything I believed on the table for review, and went to some length in making careful notes and comments in an MS Word Document and an Excel spreadsheet to keep things organized. My faith in God wasn't in question, but I "cleared the decks" as a kind of "provisional atheist", that I might clearly identify the grounding and basis for "non-negotiables" of my belief. The last thing I wanted was to lead a family move to the Catholic church, only to become a dissident there again, as I had become for so many parts of the Protestant faith and culture I lived in presently. More than anything, I wanted clarity about these issues that would stick.
My efforts quickly became a case study for the caution that one should be careful what one wishes for. I wished for clarity and durability in my beliefs about God and religion, and I got it (durability being tentative just a year in, of course). In forcing myself to do a tabula rasa accounting of what I believed and why, I ended up with undeniable clarity on two propositions: my 30+ years of Christian faith were predicated note on verifiable interaction with God and reasoned justification for the truth of the Bible, but instead 1) an (nearly) overwhelming desire for Christianity to be true in some form and 2) cowardice in confronting the prospects of unbelief in my life.
I had pages and pages of outline items documenting the usual historical (claims) of evidence for Jesus' divinity and the resurrection. I had the standard cadre of philosophical arguments in there - the Ontological Argument, The Transcendental Argument, the Cosmological Argument, etc. I had a list of the "miracles" and events in my life I believed represented supernatural intervention and interaction. One by one, though, all of these fell apart under skeptical, honest review. For instance, I had become concerned several years ago at the frankly pathetic state of Intellectual Evangelicalism. In discussing this with friends, they pointed me at C.S. Lewis and William Lane Craig. I was intimately familiar with Lewis, of course, who was the closest thing I had to an intellectual hero of the faith (Chesterton was appealing too, but not nearly in the way Lewis was).
Immersing myself in the books, articles, and debates of Craig, though, just exacerbated the problem. If Craig was even representative of Intellectual Christianity, never mind being one of its best examples, the situation was much worse than I had previously thought. Reading Bahnsen, Frame, Poythress, Plantinga and rest of the Reformed philosophers made the picture bleaker still, a kind of demon-apologetic wearing a cross, and carrying a Bible.
Provisional Agnosticism
Over several months I worked through philosophical and historical arguments from a new, hypothetical perspective. Rather than presupposing God, and synthesizing what I read and heard accordingly, I was now to a point where I began Craig's Reasonable Faith and Ehrman's Misquoting Jesus without extreme prejudice.
At that point, I was still a believer, but on the horns of a very serious dilemma. My project was backfiring, my "first principles" strategy aimed at shoring up my beliefs and convictions was seriously destabilizing them. If I continued, I understood the potential outcome, and the ramifications were quite troubling. If I aborted the effort, no one else would be the wiser, and I could return to my comfortable faith. But I would still know, and would have to live with the knowledge that I bailed out because of my fear, and an unwillingness to be fully honest and self-critical.
It seems "right for the story" to relate my struggle over that dilemma, and how I struggled over time to be deeply honest and transparent with myself and others about the justification and reasonableness of my faith. I did choose to pursue critical examination, the path of honesty, but as it happened, no sooner had I realized the dilemma I was facing, then it was over. I awoke in the middle of the night, and prowled the house through the rest of the night, agonized, exhilarated, shocked and in despair over facing the facts. I did not have a good basis for my beliefs, and the nature of my faith as an expression of my desires and my fears laid open to see, undeniable. I was a Christian because I was raised to be one, and I remained one because it's what I wanted. Moreover, I remained one because it seemed the only choice available in terms of my social connections and relationships. I was an evangelical homeschooler, deeply embedded in my church, thoroughly immersed in my faith, identified by it. I was a "godly man", and a good man because of my faith in God, which I was never shy about or ashamed to admit.
That night, with the realization of how motivated and determined I was, subconsciously or otherwise to tell my own story to myself and the world in terms of am active, powerful relationship with a living God, the creator of the universe, I for the first time faced the reality of God as a creature of my own invention. I "inherited" it in a way, being raised in a fundamentalist Christian home, but I had made the illusion my own, and I now had no way to deny my own self-deception. God was God because that's the way I wanted the truth to be. I wanted to live forever. I wanted a neat clean way to resolve the problems of my immoral and unethical actions. I wanted an easy clear-cut basis for right and wrong. I wanted to think I was special, cosmically-special, just like all my Christian friends and family members. I wanted to think that all men will see judgment day, after death, as a way of relieving the despair of seeing evil triumph on earth, and as a way of abdicating my own personal responsibility to do my part to see justice served; God would fix everything in the end, so I could do what I managed or wanted to do, and sleep easy at night because God would make up any cosmic differences, and ultimately right all wrongs.
I read parts of the book of Job the next morning, which has always been one of my favorite books of the Bible, and it hit me like a ton of bricks. Rather than just man being used as cosmic chits in a bit of gamesmanship between God and Satan, I saw man creating God is his own image. I had a daughter die during delivery several years ago (so really, I should probably always say I have seven kids, with one that's dead to be fair and respectful to her), and though I didn't realize it until much later, it was a kind of "Jobian" experience for me. The anguish and pain of losing a child in the delivery room -- her heartbeat and vital signs were terrific at a doctor's checkup at 9am that very morning -- was powerful in reinforcing my conviction this was NOT the end, and that I would see my daughter again some day, beyond this life. It was the only right way for the world to be, and what a happy, hopeful thing to be a Christian, where I did have that very expectation and assurance! If I hadn't ever believed in God until that day, I suppose I would have been quite motivated to invent God, and his heaven, and the afterlife on my own, very much in the mode of Job declaring "And in my flesh I shall see God", out of sheer emotional rejection of the idea that death is final, and some losses are never recovered, some injustices are never set right.
The insight into the plausibility, and the reasonability of my decades of faith being accounted for as imagination, exaggeration and credulity borne of desire caused the full collapse of my faith. I no longer believed, and had achieved a broad, if excruciating, view of why my faith was unfounded and why I had embraced and promoted it still for so long. I knew that I could not prove to myself of anyone else that God did not exist, but I now had a reasonable basis for understanding not just the poverty of evidential arguments for Christianity and the disingenuous dishonesty of the various philosophical arguments for God, but also an explanation for my experiences, and my interpretations of the Holy Spirit and his perceived mediate influence in my life. I had arrived at atheism in my application of honesty, introspection, and fair appraisal of the evidence and issues involved.
I was an atheist.
Costs of De-conversion
My wife is a believer, and has been since before we were married. My family is fundamentalist Baptist. My social circles are dominated by my faith community. I have plenty of non-Christian colleagues and friends through work, but even years after "dropping out" of regular church attendance, my social peers remain members of our last church, and similar churches. We homeshool our children, and so a large part of our lives revolves around the activities of our homeschool co-op. As you might imagine, our homeschool group is a hotbed of religious zeal and fundamentalist/evangelical fervor.
My conclusion, then, or perhaps it's more accurate to say my discovery, was a terrifying one. In a way that is difficult to articulate, the discovery was profoundly relieving, a fact that attests, I think, the latent, subliminal anxieties and stresses that accumulate for thinking Christians and the inevitable cognitive dissonances they must bear. Maybe it captures something of the moment to say that felt supremely honest and open, the liberating effect of renouncing the "sin" of my self-deceptions and indulgences of desire and caprice. But the overriding reality at that point was, in fact, fear. I no longer believed in God, or in anything supernatural as far as I knew, but I very much believed in the value and preciousness of my marriage, and my relationship with my wife. I've been fortunate in many respects in my life, but nowhere so fortunate as I have been in finding and developing the relationship I have with my wife. I've since met a couple men who've confessed to me that they are "closet atheists" who go to church dutifully every Sunday, leading AWANA on Wed. night, and showing up regularly for men's Bible study on Monday evenings. For them, they simply see their atheism as a threat to that which matters most to them, their marriages.
It's easy from outside of that situation to sniff and snort and decry the dishonesty of that kind of "double life", and for what it's worth, it is dishonest, and in a way, quite cowardly. But having been in that same position, those men will find no condemnation or judgment from me. When push comes to shove, I can understand keeping my atheism tightly concealed as a means of preserving stability and continuity for a marriage. One of the best things about my marriage has been an unusual level of honesty and frankness, and this was highly problematic. The most painful experience in all of this was the .... distance I felt from my wife in those few days where I had become an atheist, but not let her know. It didn't take long for the pain of that to outweigh the fear of turmoil and disruption -- I let it all out in a long, difficult night just a few days after the collapse.
It's been a painful, hard year. I'm sure many atheists have a story that relates their de-conversion as mostly "upside". For me, it is fundamentally, upside as well, but the cost of "coming out" is big, unpredictable, and long lasting. I'm happy to say that my marriage is intact, and as good as ever. My kids are aware, and although mostly unhappy about it and feeling a bit betrayed (which they should, given the unfounded things I've been indoctrinating them with sense birth), and of course dislocated. I've been "disfellowshipped" by some Christian friends, and have caused a major uproar in the homeschooling groups and forums where I have related my story. The Christian myth that morality and ethical "goodness" is predicated on the belief in God, and either impossible without, or at best accidental, runs very deep in the evangelical/fundamentalist community. So, many who learn of my de-conversion wonder, often aloud, what happens now that I'm free to cheat on my wife, steal, or do any number of things worse than that. It's been an eye-opening experience, and my de-conversion is a kind of Rorschach test for Christians, I think. When they confront my rejection of Christianity for atheism, one gets a sense of what they imagine themselves to be in their "native" state. They say they are wondering about my actions as an atheist, but I'm a year on into this as my usual self, a faithful husband, engaged father, hard worker, etc., and what they are often telling me is what they suppose they would be like if they had to develop and execute their own moral and ethical principles. I don't really agree with this, as I think the truth as truth is an important good in its own right, but many Christians I know make a good case for embracing Christianity, even if it is false; by their own accounts, the kind of person they would be without their invented gods and demons and heaven and hell is often downright scary.
Worst Case Scenario
In cases like mine, inevitably, there are questions raised and suspicions launched about the actuality or sincerity of my faith in the first place. For what it's worth, I claim to be an atheist who was a deeply committed, "sold out" believer for decades. Raised in an extremely devout Baptist home, I "accepted Jesus into my heart" as a gradeschooler like any good, rational kid does who has grown up with hellfire and brimstone on one side, and felt-cloth Jesus on the easel, welcoming the children into his arms, on the other. I was baptized at 12 years old, had a solid string of ecstatic, powerful "mountain-top" spiritual experiences at Christian youth camps and retreats as a teen. I hit a bit of brick wall in college, as I was set up by my parents to embrace young earth creationism, and allowed to continue in my folly right into enrolling in university. That shook my faith badly, as I'd been betrayed and lied to by many of the people I'd trusted most, but that crisis triggered a transformation for me toward a more mature, thoughtful, and personal faith in Jesus Christ. Through the child raising years, and founding several tech startups that failed badly, then one that did well and eventually got bought by a large Internet company in the dot com days, church was my life outside of work (and inside it, too, often enough!), and I continually identified God's hand in influencing and shaping the world around me and in me according to his will. In the last decade when we've been fortunate enough -- blessed by God, as I saw it at the time -- to have the means, my wife and I have gotten involved with our hands and our funds in church planting and church growth as part of our commitment to reifying the Kingdom of God on earth through the gospel of Jesus Christ.
I was not a pastor like John, or Dan Barker. I never went to seminary, and my most impressive "official" credentials in the church were nothing higher than "guitarist in the worship band", but I was a "died-in-the-wool" believer. I never heard God "speak" in an audible way, but I saw many things I considered miracles, many events I interpreted as God's special message of reassurance, love and hope to me. I was an avid student of theology, a circumstance which had faith-building and faith-destroying ramifications for me over the years. In any case, I was not a "lukewarm Christian", one of those who slowly drifted out of the faith. My faith did not fade away, it came crashing down, quite unexpectedly, and frankly not of my own choosing (at least at the start). I was a cradle Evangelical fully immersed, well-read and fully on board. As a poster on a forum for (Christian) homeschoolers commented recent in a large "discussion" over my atheism: it's the "worst case scenario". Such is the dissonance for many who have known me, a good share of them have decided I've just been lying or faking it all these years, or I somehow just was never saved, never a Christian that "took".
A Moral Imperative
The irony for me, given all the indoctrination I've received along with so many other evangelicals and fundamentalists over there years about the necessity of God as an underwriter for moral values, is that while my faith collapsed out of reasoning and skepticism, my eventual rejection of Christianity on a lasting basis was predicated on realizing the moral poverty of Christianity. Some come to disbelief in God out of moral outrage toward God, and understandable but dubious path to knowledge. I came to realize my belief was sublimated desire and fear, and that I just did not have any foundation for believing in God's existence, even (especially) in light of my own subjective experiences, which I overlaid on the bare scaffolding of dubious history and incoherent philosophy/theology. I disbelieved first, but freed from my Christian presuppositions, Christianity took on a much more complex, problematic moral character; for whatever good elements remained, the God of Christianity on many fronts represented cruelty, viciousness, caprice, abuse, injustice, and moral incoherence. I did not believe there was any Christian God, or any gods at all, but if the Christian God somehow was real, and I was badly mistaken, I realized I would have to resist his authority and power on moral grounds, as a matter of good moral conscience.
With that, the matter was decided. I had no remaining basis for belief, and Christian belief had become morally problematic, even if I did have basis for it. In the past year, despite all the pain and stress that necessarily comes from someone in my position renounces his faith, I feel like I have a new lease on life, and life itself has value and moral meaning for me that it never did before. There's a lot of adjustment to do when you've come into your life thinking yourself just a "sojourner" here on Earth, making a brief stop on the way to eternal life with God. But as St. Paul said, "When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child". At 40 years old, I had done well professionally, had a happy, healthy, growing family and a great marriage, but I was stilling clinging to childish thinking and emotions when it came to God, my faith, my moral foundation and the principles I was passing on to my children. Like many Christians, I find great comfort and pleasure in indulging in dreams of living past my death, and living forever. But this past year has been the year -- better late than never -- to put away childish things, and to embrace reality as it is, and live in such a way as to take full advantage of the precious moments I have in this life, and to build a life of virtue, making my little part of the world a better, more just, happier, and humane place for my kids, their grandkids, and all they will share their world with.

CANTON - The SUNY Potsdam softball team (6-6) traveled down the road to face St. Lawrence University (7-7) in a North Country doubleheader Thursday afternoon.
The Bears split with the Saints, winning 1-0 and then falling 9-8 in extra innings. Junior pitcher Megan Johnson (Heuvelton, N.Y.) recorded her first career no-hitter. Johnson joins fellow teammate Ashley Thayer (Winthrop, N.Y.) as the only two pitchers to throw no hit games in a Potsdam uniform.
In game one, Potsdam rallied behind a stellar pitching performance by Johnson. The Bears notched an early run and then used solid defense in the 1-0 win. Senior captain Heather Johnson (Heuvelton, N.Y.) got Potsdam off to a fast start with a double to left center field in the first inning. Shortly after, sophomore Carissa Cornwell (Homer, N.Y.) would step up to the plate and drive in Heather Johnson to record the only run of the contest. The Saints threatened in the fourth inning after a walk and a miscue by the Bears put the tying run on third. St. Lawrences Liz McGinley (Canastota, NY) was poised to bring in her teammate. However, a fly out to Cornwell in right field and a great throw to home would preserve the 1-0 advantage. Potsdam used the momentum to help Johnson secure the schools third no-hitter and the victory.
At the plate, Heather Johnson was one for three with a double and one run. Cornwell went one for three with one RBI. Megan Johnson recorded four strikeouts and one walk in seven innings in tossing the no-hitter.
In the nightcap, Potsdam built a 6-0 lead with the help of six hits over the course of three innings. In bottom of the sixth inning, St. Lawrence begin to cut into the deficit when Cavellier led off with a single, stole second base, and then scored on a single to centerfield from Liz McGinley.
Lauren Weisbarth and Becky Allen both drew walks to load the bases for the Saints, and after Potsdam made the second out of the inning, a fielding error by the first baseman allowed Weisbarth to score. A wild pitch brought Allen home, and then another Potsdam fielding error brought Kieltyka in, bringing the score to 6-4 in favor of Potsdam.
After Potsdam stretched their lead to 7-4 when Heather Johnson singled and would come around to score, the Saints rallied for three runs in the seventh to force an extra inning. With one out, St. Lawrence landed runners on first and second base after consecutive hit by pitches.
Cailyn Welsh followed with a short hit to Potsdams relief pitcher Ashley Thayer, who looked to get the lead runner but did not make the throw, loading the bases. A sacrifice fly from Allen brought McGinley home, and then a wild pitch allowed Weisbarth to score to bring the Saints within one, 7-6.
At that point, Jordan Sarat, who pitched the Bears to a 6-0 lead through four innings, re-entered the game to try to get her team out of the jam. However, Caroline Kieltyka hit a high fly between second base and right field that proved trouble and hit off a fielders glove before landing on the ground, allowing Welsh, the game-tying run, to score to force extra innings.
In the eighth inning with a runner on second base due to the international tiebreaker rule, Potsdam laid down two perfect sacrifice bunts to bring a run in and take a 8-7 lead. St. Lawrence responded with a push bunt single from Audra Caine that moved Leslie Stratton to third base, followed by an RBI single to right field from Chelsea Cavellier.
Potsdam opted to load the bases and then forced Caine out at the plate on Weisbarths fielders choice. However, Sarat would walk Welsh in the next at bat, allowing the game-winning run to score to give St. Lawrence the 9-8 win.
McGinley earned the win on the mound as she gave up four earned runs off nine hits and struck out nine. Sarat suffered the loss as she allowed six hits and one earned run in 4.2 innings with five strike outs.
Thivierge led the Bears, going two for three and recording two RBIs. Heather Johnson concluded three for four with two runs scored and one RBI. Megan Johnson added a two for four performance and tallied one RBI. Sarat recorded five strikeouts in 4.2 innings pitched and allowed six hits.
Potsdam returns to action this afternoon on the road against SUNY New Paltz in a SUNYAC doubleheader at 3 p.m.
The SUNY Canton softball team ran their winning streak to five games as they swept Wells College 9-2 and 18-2 in a doubleheader Thursday afternoon in Aurora.
The Roos improved to 9-11 overall and have been on a tear since returning from spring break, winning nine of their last 11 games. SUNY Canton has out scored their opponents 66-18 during their five-game unbeaten run.
In game one on Thursday, the Roos held a slim 2-1 lead after four innings thanks to a two-run home run by sophomore Hallie Fenti (Hornell, N.Y.) in the top of the second inning. The visiting team opened up the game with a big four-run fifth inning fueled by an RBI-double down the left –field line by senior Tina DeLuca (Fresh Meadows, N.Y.) , RBI-singles from junior Allie Gibson (North Tonawanda, N.Y.) and freshman Kristyn Reynolds (Malone, N.Y.), and a Wells throwing error.
SUNY Canton tacked on one more run in the sixth inning when sophomore Jessica Rhodes (Alpine, N.Y.) scored off another Wells error, and two more runs in the seventh off a Rhodes two-run double to left-center field.
Gibson collected the win on the mound striking out a season-high nine batters while allowing six hits and one earned run in seven innings.
The Roos took control of the second game early posting nine runs in the top of the first against The Express, who were playing their first two games of the season after numerous weather postponements. The Roos put up three more runs in the third inning and closed out the game with a six-run fourth inning.
Junior Andrea Rogers (Munnsville, N.Y.) blasted a pair of two-run home runs and finished 3-for-4 with five RBIs and a double. Rogers went deep to left field in the third inning and then cleared the fence for her team-leading fifth home run in the fourth inning. Rogers also had an RBI-double in that decisive first inning.
DeLuca ripped a pair of triples including a two-run shot in the first and she also brought in a run in the inning with a sacrifice fly to center field. Junior Nicole Mulieri (Afton, N.Y.) added a two-single in the first inning and Fenti contributed an RBI-single.
DeLuca finished with four RBIs and also notched the win on the mound fanning seven batters in five innings giving up just four hits and two earned runs.
Junior Destiny Petty (Flushing, N.Y.) added a double and two RBIs for SUNY Canton.
Kylie Nishioka had a double and a single in game one and homered in game two to lead Wells.
SUNY Canton heads to New York City this weekend for a doubleheader at Brooklyn College on Saturday and a doubleheader at Briarcliffe College on Sunday.

It's the kind of slapstick comedy that Oshii, perhaps best known for the Ghost in the Shell anime, said he has not done in years.
"I can't stand the sight of blood myself."
The story is told almost entirely from a first person perspective, with a minimal amount of animation, highly detailed drawings which are intricately colored, and some sparse sound effects.
When we asked Mr. Oshii why he thought so many Japanese teenagers were drawn to giving blood, the so-called 献血マニア (kenketsu-mania), he laughingly quipped, "I can't stand the sight of blood myself but I love getting IV transfusions. I get them whenever possible. It makes me feel great."
He then launched into a long monologue on the Japanese fascination with blood, including the practice of defining people's personalities by their blood types. "Blood is the only part of the body that we can take into ourselves and put back. It has no shape in and of itself. We can store it up and put it back—derive power from it... Like certain athletes," he added, making an oblique Lance Armstrong joke.
Oshii stated that part of the inspiration for the comic strip were his thoughts on blood itself and from wondering about how different types of blood would affect a vampire. He himself seems to have more sympathy with the vampires than with the serial blood donors but did admit, "I don't want to sound like a dirty old man but I don't think I'd mind having almost all of my blood drained out of me by a very attractive young vampiress."

Home ⋅ Thank You Notes and Photo Baby Thank You Cards ⋅ Cars & Trains ⋅ Easter
"These are so cute - I use them as thank you notes for my son. His room is little world traveler-themed so the cards are perfect for him!"
"Never order Thank You cards - and always end up searching for them after the party - which makes me late in sending 'Thank You's'. So grateful that this time - before the party I have the Thank You notes - it will save me so much time and wasted guilt after the party. Plus the quality is super. Never again will I order Invites without adding Thank You Cards!"
"I order these as thank you cards for my son's 1st birthday party, which had a construction theme. These cards are perfect!! They are not too big and the quality of paper and picture are top notch!! Being able to customize the title at no charge is a huge bonus and the shipping was lighting fast. Considering that they were a custom print and I received them in less than 10 days I could not be happier!!"
"These cards far exceeded my expectations!! The color is bright, vibrant and just a lot of fun!! Very high quality! I will certainly be ordering again in the future!!"
"We went very simple with the personalization - no images, just first name and last name. The print quality and design were perfect. Couldn't be more pleased."

I am knitting a cardigan, and with just 6cm left to knit I should say I am almost finished knitting a cardigan. What a nice feeling, and what a great way to spend my summer vacation. The pattern is Nanook and the yarn is Shelter. If you've knit with this yarn then you will know that it's rough and woolly but after I wash it it will be SO soft and perfectly woolly. I can't wait to wash it.
In other news, if you are in the US have a look at my destash page on Ravelry. I'm trying to move some yarn out of my house and the prices are pretty good. And if you are in central North Carolina, have a look at my craigslist post where I am selling my Louet S10 Double Treadle spinning wheel. I am not even firm on the price listed, so if you're looking to get into spinning then I am willing to make a deal!
It's like spring cleaning, but in the thick of summer!

Submission Practical Reasons to Choose Git or Subversion->
markmcb writes: "I develop Rails applications and recently followed my lemming herd and made the switch to Git after learning some of the practical advantages Git offers over Subversion. As I'm sure there are many die hard Subversion fans in the Slashdot audience, I'm curious what your key reasons are for sticking with Subversion. If possible, I'd like reasons that apply to 'most of the time' as opposed to arguments based on obscure features that may get used only a few times ever."

On August 24, 2009, Air China Limited announced that it will launch the "China Children Insurance Foundation" donation events program as of September 1, 2009. The announcement was made at a press conference at the Renaissance Beijing Hotel promoting the "China Children Insurance Foundation".
Starting September 1, 2009, Air China will insert a "China Children Insurance Foundation" donation envelope in the seat pockets of outbound flights departing from Beijing, on international flights of more than four hours, and in the First and Business Class sections on inbound flights. Passengers who would like to make donations may insert money into an envelope and pass it to a flight attendant. Starting September 2, 2009, customers may choose to make an online donation when they purchase tickets on Air China's domestic website (www.airchina.com.cn). Furthermore, information about "China Children Insurance Foundation" will be made available on Air China's 27 global websites. All in-flight and online charity fund raising activities are conducted in accordance to the highest legal standards. The charity money will be used to purchase serious disease insurance cards for children in disadvantaged areas of China that Air China has selected, and for initiating the national "Orphan Protection Campaign" on September 15, 2009.
"China Children Insurance Foundation" is a charity project with the sole mandate of providing serious disease medical insurance for Chinese children aged between 3 and 15 through the public welfare insurance system. Air China took an active role in the operation and publicity of this foundation based on its corporate goal of "fulfilling social needs and creating common value". Since April 9, 2009, when Air China became one of the founders of "China Children Insurance Foundation", it has donated RMB 1 million to the cause, half of which was sent to Weixian County in Hebei Province to acquire serious disease insurance cards for 25,000 of its children.

Holly Madison is the proud new mother of a baby girl!
The reality star welcomed her first child with boyfriend, Pasquale Rotella, on Tuesday in Las Vegas.
Madison told InTouch, "Pasquale and I welcomed our first child, a baby girl! We haven't yet decided on a name for her but we couldn't be any more overjoyed than at this moment."
Their healthy daughter was born at 11:59 a.m. on Tuesday morning, weighing 7 pounds and 2 ounces.
Pasquale also gushed about his newborn:
"I've never been more in love than I am today as, after months of waiting, I finally was able to hold my daughter for the first time. Holly and I are looking forward to spending some quiet time with our baby and enjoying our new family. I'm truly the luckiest man in the world," he told the mag.
Fans know the former "Girls Next Door" star has been wanting a child of her own for quite some time now -- so we're sure the blonde bombshell must be thrilled!
Reportedly, Holly is in the middle of filming a reality show special ... so we might just get to see her delivery play out on TV!
We can't wait to see the baby and learn her name -- congrats to the happy couple!

after_filter is called after the template is rendered, thus you cannot set instance variables in it and expect them to be available in the template. The
after_filter method is good for post-render content manipulation or analysis such as gzipping, translating to pig latin or determining content-length. Perhaps it would be useful to add a
before_render hook?
is_a?(Array). This means that none of the association proxy methods are available!

Remember integration tests are for full stack http testing
Actually, Selenium tests are for full-stack testing. The Rails "Integration Tests" skip several important layers including JS, DOM and AJAX. And do they really use HTTP, or do they fake it with Rails Request objects?

North country farmers interested in more commercial production of poultry will get a boost with a grant to Cooperative Extension of St. Lawrence County that will look at pasture-raised fowl and the arrival of a mobile slaughterhouse.
Theres an overwhelming demand for pastured poultry, but we have had an inability to scale up, said Brent A. Buchanan, an agricultural issues leader with Extension.
However, a long-anticipated mobile chicken processor is expected to be in operation soon.
The North Country Regional Economic Development Council and North Country Pastured, the owner of the processor, will have a ribbon-cutting to celebrate the unit at 1 p.m. Thursday at 116 Rice Road, DeKalb Junction.
North Country Pastured was the recipient of a $130,000 state grant through the North Country Regional Economic Development Council.
Delivery of the unit took longer than expected because the company responsible for building it also makes equipment for the military, which took precedence.
North Country Pastured has estimated it could process 25,000 chickens in its first year and surpass that number in the future.
A research and field data project into raising pastured poultry in hoop houses, brooders and fenced areas just begun at Cooperative Extension will tie into the mobile slaughterhouse.
Weve been thinking this was a need in the north country, Mr. Buchanan said. The gaping hole was the slaughterhouse. North Country Pastured has been able to solve that part of the puzzle.
With the use of freezers and the addition of U.S. Department of Agriculture-certified slaughterhouses, including the mobile unit, the north country could have its own poultry available year-round for use by institutions and other consumers.
Mr. Buchanan procured a $29,000 grant that will pay for hoop houses and other equipment and gather data for best practices research that farmers in six counties can use to improve their flocks.
The Extensions Learning Farm on Route 68 in the town of Canton will have a hoop house and raise several batches of chickens for the project. Three other hoop houses will go on loan to farmers in St. Lawrence, Franklin, Clinton, Essex, Lewis and Jefferson counties.
On Thursdays, extension educators and farmers who will receive the first hoop houses were at the Learning Farm to build the structures, set up watering systems and have a lesson from Peter L. McDonald, McDonald Farm, Romulus, which raises chickens, beef, lamb, turkey, pork and eggs.
This is the system I put together as a means of growing chickens, Mr. McDonald said. We have run up to 10,000 chickens in a year in half a dozen hoop houses.
Day-old chicks start out in brooders in the hoop houses but are free to roam as their feathers sprout, eating grass and bugs along with grain, Extension educator Betsy F. Hodge said. The complex, including fencing, is movable so the chicks can have fresh ground.
The study will make comparisons between Cornish Cross birds, a quick-growing variety ready to market in eight weeks, and Freedom Rangers, a heritage breed that is slower to grow but reputed to be better foragers. Data will be collected until July 1. Extension will help with coordination of buying feed and the chicks.
People will know if they like the system, Ms. Hodge said. We learn a lot from trial and error.
Raising birds on pasture is essential to the health of the animal and the people who consume them, Mr. McDonald said.
While the poultry are fed grain and have ready access to water, about 25 percent of their diet comes from what they peck up from the ground.
They have a choice, Mr. McDonald said. They really have a wonderful time. Theyre running around chasing bugs. They can have a great life and one bad day.
The birds can be inside the tent or out, and are protected from predators by the hoop house and an electrified poultry net.
The hoop house system could help producers who typically raise 25 birds increase to 250, Mr. Buchanan said.
This is a unit that is doable and replicable, he said.

CASTILE, NY - There is still no cause in the fire that destroyed the Castile Town and Village hall Tuesday.
Firefighters from 26 different departments responded to the scene of a blaze which destroyed a 125 year old building in Wyoming County.
PHOTO GALLERY: Fire Destroys Castile Town and Village Hall
The fire started around 2:00 a.m. Tuesday in the building at 55 North Main Street, and the cause remains under investigation.
Assistant Castile Fire Chief Brian Brown said the building is a total loss and expects demolition of the structure, largely gutted by the fire, to begin on Wednesday morning.
The building also houses Lorraine's, a restaurant, whose owner Lorraine Qutermous resided in an upstairs apartment.
A woman who identified herself as Qutermous' sister told WGRZ-TV the family has been unable to contact her, and that she fears that she perished in the fire.
"We have not located the owner, and that is part of the ongoing investigation," said Wyoming County Sheriff Farris Heimann. "I don't have anything else to say other than we have not located her yet," Heimann said, declining to say whether or not officials believe Qutermous was home at the time the fire broke out.
The Castile Fire Department says it appears the fire started on the second floor of the building.
Village and town officials announced declared states of emergencies for their respective communities because their governments had no effective means of functioning normally.
Castile Town and Village officials say many records which were destroyed in the blaze, while of historic significance, were not the type of documents needed to operate their respective governments on a day-to-day basis.
"We were able to save our computers, which provides a back up for the day to day operations stuff," said Town Supervisor Stephen Tarbell. "Some of our forms, water meter books, and things like that we were also able to save," Tarbell said, as he gazed about a room filled with documents rescued from the building and piled on tables at the fire hall next door.
