According to legend, the Guatemalan worry doll has the ability to remove worries from sleeping children. If a child speaks their worry to the doll and places the doll under their pillow or bed when they go to sleep, in the morning, the dolls will have taken their worries away.
Traditionally very colorful and small, worry dolls are handmade figures dressed in the bright textiles and vivid patterns of the traditional Guatemalan highlands. We're enamored by the rich history and compelling folklore behind Guatemalan worry dolls. These beautifully handcrafted items make sweet gifts and great accents to any room in your house.

WASHINGTON (MarketWatch) — Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke was in New York City Tuesday to send a message back to Washington: Cut a deal to avoid the fiscal cliff, and don't play politics with the federal debt limit again.
Confusion over the course of U.S. tax and spending policy is weighing on the spending decisions of households and businesses, as well as on financial markets, Bernanke said in remarks to the New York Economic Club.
Fiscal cliff's impact on Asia
The U.S. government has until January to solve the so-called fiscal cliff crisis. Eastspring Investments' Nicholas Ferres talks about how he's preparing for the worst-case scenario.
"Uncertainty about how the fiscal cliff, the raising of the debt limit and the longer-term budget situation will be addressed appears already to be affecting private spending and investment decisions, and may be contributing to an increased sense of caution in financial markets," he said.
Economists say the most visible sign of uncertainty over the fiscal cliff is in the lack of capital-spending growth since the summer.
Orders for nondefense capital goods excluding aircraft, a key metric of demand, was flat in September after a 0.2% gain in the prior month. This came on the heels of close to an 8% slide in June and July.
"Such uncertainties will only be increased by discord and delay," according to Bernanke.
He urged the members of Congress not to kick the can down the road. Putting off policy choices would only "prolong and intensify these uncertainties," he said.
"In contrast, cooperation and creativity to deliver fiscal clarity — in particular a plan for resolving the nation's longer-term budgetary issues without harming the recovery — could make the new year a very good one for the American economy."
Without action by the White House and Congress on the fiscal cliff, about $500 billion in spending cuts and tax increases are set to begin in 2013. Economists, the Congressional Budget Office, and Fed economists have warned that America could slip back into recession if the so-called fiscal cliff is not addressed before the end of the year. See MarketWatch's full coverage of the fiscal cliff.
In a question-and-answer session, Bernanke warned that Fed policy could not protect the economy if it goes over the cliff.
"I don't think the Fed has the tools to offset that," he said.
Yet the Fed chairman elaborated that he thought the economy could "strengthen significantly if there is a greater level of security and comfort about where we are going as a country."
President Barack Obama and congressional leaders met last week to reopen budget talks and pledged to work together to reach a deal.
There has been work under way this week while Obama took a quick four-day trip to Southeast Asia.

Can't Win for Losing
Posted by Kevin Arnovitz on Tue, 08/05/08, 02:04pm:
The Clippers once held the coveted title of most dysfunctional franchise in the league and they made a lot of strides toward reclaiming it this summer.Elton's departure probably places the Clippers on the minus end of the Winner-Loser continuum. And had the Clippers been irreparably paralyzed by the Elton debacle, it'd be fair to characterize them as the dysfunctional franchise they were several years ago. But it's important to recognize the creativity and decisiveness employed by the organization after Elton signed with Philadelphia. Does the addition of B. Davis, Camby, R. Davis make them a playoff team? I'm not sure. But I think they'll win more than the 23 games they won last year. By virtue of that alone, the Clips should be spared inclusion in the Most Loserish Offseason club.
Everything started off so well. They shocked many by quickly coming to terms with Warriors free agent Baron Davis -- filling a big need at the point. Pairing Davis with Elton Brand was supposed to put the Clippers on a course back to the playoffs in the West. Unfortunately, the team then inexplicably lost Brand to the Sixers a week later. Brand's people say the Clippers mishandled the negotiations. The Clippers point the finger at Brand's agent, David Falk.
Suddenly, the Clippers' dream team was a nightmare. At this point in his career, Davis making $65 million stretches credulity, even if he's motivated. An unmotivated Davis playing on a cellar dweller? Ugh.
The Clippers also lost Corey Maggette and tried to minimize all the damage by bringing in Marcus Camby and Ricky Davis. But I don't think they're a playoff team in the West with that crew.

COLUMBUS, Ohio -- There's an invasion taking place across Ohio.
Stink bugs - first identified in Pennsylvania in 1998 - are making their way into homes across Ohio. The brown, shield-shaped insects have been spreading throughout Ohio over the last six years or so.
Researchers say that even though the bugs have only been around for a short time, they expect they will be here to stay. Most think they got to the United States in containers shipped from Asia.
Stink bugs search out warm places when the weather cools and that's why they're moving into homes.
The pests are a threat to crops, but not to people.
But they do give off a foul odor whet they're squished.

POTSDAM Instead of the traditional two-game weekend the Clarkson University mens hockey team is only focusing on one contest this weekend, a game tonight at the Rochester Institute of Technology that will be televised live by Time Warner Sports.
Clarkson (2-5-4 overall) is starting a stretch that will see it play five of its next eight games against nonconference opponents, though one of those nonconference contests will be a game against rival St. Lawrence University in Lake Placid.
Its the way it is, Clarkson coach Casey Jones said. Its a situation where teams take some breaks over Thanksgiving. Then all of sudden we are heading into New Year pretty quick. Its a stretch thats important for us in terms of finishing out the first half on a good note. We have some tough games coming forward starting with (tonight) to set ourselves up for the second half.
RIT (2-7-2) enters tonights game on a four-game winless streak (0-3-1). The Tigers started off the season with a 5-4 overtime win at Michigan, but followed that by going 0-4-1. RIT has not defeated Clarkson since it became an NCAA Division I program and its last win against the Golden Knights was a 4-3 decision at the Syracuse Invitational in 1986.
You look at the whole season there, they went into Michigan and beat Michigan, so they are very capable, Jones said. They are very good at home and have great fan support. We are looking forward to a great environment. I heard its sold out and we have a large alumni contingent coming, so it should be an exciting place to play. It should be a good game in terms of two teams going at it.
Clarkson played Niagara University twice earlier in the season and fans can expect to see more nonconference games in the future against the upstate schools.
They are teams that really put a good product on the ice every year and they are competitive and they are in state and great areas for us in terms of where our alumni base is, Jones said. We do have them on the schedule here for the next few years. It should be good over the next two or three years playing these guys.
Norwood native Alex Boak has been performing a lot of key roles for Clarkson so far this season.
The 6-foot-1, 210-pound defenseman leads the team with 18 blocked shots and he is third on the team in plus/minus at plus-five.
He just continues to get bigger and stronger and hes physical and hes playing with some jam, Jones said. I still think his best hockey is ahead of him. His big thing now is hes moving his feet and hes getting difficult to play against. The thing about Alex, no matter what rink we go in, hes ready for battle and he looks out for guys. Hes a tough competitor. As a coach you like to tone someone down versus having to convince someone to play hard and get after it.
Boak is an intense player. Hes already picked up a major penalty this season and has 29 penalty minutes through 11 games. Last year, he had 102 penalty minutes.
Hes also one of the most unpopular Clarkson players among opposing fans.
Ive kind of grown to be like that, Boak said. The guys always get on me. Thats kind of what my job is, to stick up for my teammates and kind of be that physical presence out on the ice. I dont think Ive made very many friends (on other teams) over the past two years. Im nice off the ice but I dont make very good friends no the ice.
Freshman Todd Christian, a Norwalk, Conn., native, scored his first career goal just 57 seconds into Clarksons 7-2 win at Princeton last Saturday.
Christian is a third-generation Clarkson student. His grandfather, Eugene, graduated in 1951, and he had an uncle named Phillip who graduated in 1984.
It felt good to finally get the first one, Christian said. It was a while before I got in the lineup, but once I did I just tried to play my role as best I could. It worked out. Hopefully theres more to come.
Christian led his team last year, the Notre Dame Hounds, in scoring with 57 points in 57 games, including a team-best 25 goals.
Former Golden Knight goalie Andy Kostka died in his sleep at the age of 32 last Saturday in Dayton, Ohio. Kostka was part of the program from 1998-2000 and then spent his final two years at Clarkson as a student. He was a backup goalie on Clarksons 1999 ECAC Championship team and competed as an inline skater. His memorial service was Wednesday. ... Clarkson will be missing captain Ben Sexton for about a month after he was injured late in Saturdays game against Princeton. Clarkson had several players out of practice though their injuries are not as severe. Those who could possibly miss Saturdays game include Joe Zarbo, Mike Garlasco and Patrick Marsh. Sam Labrecque has also missed the last five games with an injury. ... Clarkson hopes to raise about $3,000 in November by participating in Movember, which is named for mustache growing geared toward awareness of mens health issues, such as prostate cancer.

3 years later, opponents still fighting Arizona immigration law
PHOENIX — Opponents to Arizona's landmark immigration law are calling on
lawmakers to repeal it three years after it was signed into law.
The tough anti-illegal immigration measure was signed into law on April 23,
2010 after years of complaints that the federal government hadn't done enough to
address the state's role as the nation's busiest illegal entry point.
Democratic State Sen. Steve Gallardo said the bill should be repealed. Gallardo
has tried for years to get the Republican-led Legislature to overturn the law to
no avail.
But Republican Rep. John Kavanagh said Arizona's "self-deportation" style
measure is still crucial to fighting illegal immigration.
President Barack Obama and Republicans and Democrats in Congress are lobbying
for the nation's first immigration overhaul in nearly three decades.

Utah celebrates Pioneer Day Thursday in remembrance Mormon settlers as they reached the Wasatch Valley.
Completing a treacherous thousand-mile exodus, an ill and exhausted Brigham Young and fellow members of the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints arrived in Utah's Great Salt Lake Valley on July 24, 1847. The Mormon pioneers viewed their arrival as the founding of the Mormon homeland and thus created Pioneer Day, according to Wikipidia.
According to Wikipidia, The Mormons, as they were commonly known, were forced to leave their prior settlement in Nauvoo, Ill. and began the long journey West seeking refuge from intense religious persecution.
The final impetus for their trek was the murder of founder and proposed prophet Joseph Smith on June 27, 1844. Determined to settle in an isolated region, the pioneers made their way across the plains and over the Rocky Mountains to Utah. They lost many of their party to disease during the winter months. By the time that they reached Utah, the desolate valley was a welcome sight. Potatoes and turnips were soon planted, and a dam was built. With solemn ceremonies, the settlers consecrated the two-square-mile city, and sent back word that the "promised land" had been found. By the end of 1847, nearly 2,000 Mormons had settled in the Wasatch Front according to Wikipidia.
The holiday has lasted the test of time and is now one of Utah's busiest days of the year. The main event of the day is a parade in down town Salt Lake City and it has become common around the state to set off fireworks in the evening hours.
The setting off of fireworks in the dry summer months can lead to catastrophe if not done correctly and in proper areas. Children should always be closely supervised when using fireworks to avoid any unnecessary accidents or fires.
"Every year hundreds of children are injured as a result of fires. A little pre-planning will not only give you peace of mind but it may save your life and the lives of your children," said Price Fire Chief, Paul Bedont.
According to the fire chief, the recommended pre-planning tips include:
â¢Making sure children know what to do in the event of a fire.
â¢Having an escape plan should smoke detectors activate.
The escape plans should include all bedrooms, since the majority of home fires happen at night.
â¢Determining a safe place where family members can meet after exiting the home so everyone can be accounted for.
â¢Making sure children know how and when to call 911 in an emergency.
â¢Teaching children to do the same thing at home as they do during fire drills at school.
â¢Making sure that all smoke alarms in homes are the appropriate type.
â¢Checking smoke detectors and replacing batteries on a regular basis.
"If you have any questions about fire safety, you are encouraged to contact your local fire department," said Bedont. "We hope you consider us a resource to help you and your family to be safe from the tragedies which a fire can create."
The Price City Fire Department may be reached by dialing 636-3187.
But Carbon County residents should remember to call 911 in the event of an emergency, stressed the Price fire chief.

We are unquestionably loyal in most of the ways that count, but when it comes to fashion crushes, we certainly have a weakness for novelty. That doesn't mean we're huge tchotchke collectors-Horders scares us in ways we cannot articulate-no, we're just big fans of the new and notable, which is why we adore our Hearts story so. It's our monthly moment to reflect on all the fabulous things we adore right now and humbly present them to you, dear readers. For October, we decided to include both splurges and steals, but promise that each piece is noteworthy in its own unique way. From ELLE's amazing new book to a super cute pair of Nicole Richie-designed boots, we've gathered a cool assortment of pieces that our office is buzzing about-hopefully you will find them delightful too!
Celine Original Sunglasses ($340, 212.941.9656)
If you want to see a fashion fanatic start frothing at the mouth, all you have to do is mention Celine's new sunglasses and watch the mania take hold. Already a favorite for celebs like Kate Bosworth, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Sienna Miller, these are the hottest shades to come out in ages. Part of the reason for the extreme frenzy is due to their extremely limited availability: we suggest calling Kirna Zabete's Soho store (number above) and get yourself on the wait list now. Their stock is due to arrive in two weeks and is sure to fly out of the store!
Bulgari B.Zero1 Ring ($890)
We don't showcase a great deal of fine jewelry on WhoWhatWear.com, so know that when we do, it's for an excellent reason. Case in point: this insanely gorgeous ring from Bulgari. We adore the contrast of the black ceramic bands with the 18k pink gold-it's the perfect combination of industrial toughness and refined femininity. It's equally appropriate for work or play, so feel free to wear it with just about anything you own. Basically this ring is the sort of essential that you're sure to wear for a wide range of occasions for many, many, many years to come, so put it on your must-have list!
Reed Krakoff Boxer I Tote ($1090)
As the president and executive creative director of Coach, Reed Krakoff certainly understands what it takes to create a desirable leather bag. The mastery of this knowledge is clearly demonstrated in his eponymous line, which features some of the most gorgeous accessories we've seen lately. The designer's Boxer Tote definitely tops our most-covetable list right now; we are mad about its elegant belt-like details and classic boxy shape. The bag is gorgeous in light brown suede and leather, as shown here, or you can go for one of the many other versions, which range from the simple (basic black leather) to the super luxurious (felt and alligator).
The Row Wexler Skirt ($690)
It's difficult to resist The Row's expertly crafted collection of wardrobe essentials, especially a perfect piece like this almost-maxi skirt. The ankle-revealing rounded hem makes the long, full skirt look modern and completely unidentifiable-two things you definitely want when you're investing in a staple. Though it was shown on The Row's runway with a black Silk Crepe Blouse ($890) and strappy flat thong sandals, the wool-blend skirt will also look amazing with ankle boots and a prim button-up blouse for a high-impact minimalist look.
Estee Lauder Pure Color Nail Lacquer ($18) in Extravagant Night
We'll be frank: we're not usually interested in glittery nail polish. That said, there's something about this shimmering shade from Estee Lauder that we totally love. The dark violet hue is spot-on for fall, plus it makes the polish's hint o' glitz feel chic, not childish. And, as an additional bonus, we think the bottle is just so cute. Snap up this limited-edition shade now; we have a feeling it won't be in stock much longer!
House of Harlow 1960 Dyson Suede Platform Boots ($260) in Chocolate
Stores are stuffed with fall footwear right now, but how do you choose which ones to get? For us, it's simple: House of Harlow 1960's Dyson Boots are simply it! They have a stacked platform and heel, plus the wraparound ankle cord and toggle closure gives them an awesome vintage look. While we prefer this rich chocolate brown suede, they're also available in black, so be sure to check out both!
Madewell Metallic Oversized-Plaid Cardi ($125)
The whole Madewell's-got-e-commerce thing is really working out for us. It's been months since the brand officially opened for web business and we can't stop shopping the site! Who could blame us when there cozy cardigans like this one available for purchase? At first glance, we fell for its excellent oversized shape, but we also appreciate the sweater's subtle metallic touches too; it adds just a touch of neutral sheen that's oh-so stylish!
The ELLEments of Personal Style ($30) by Joe Zee and Maggie Bullock
If you only purchase one item this month, make it this book. You will truly enjoy it, and we're not just saying that because we're former ELLE editors (and by "we" we mean KP +HK). The book-which showcases 25 fashion icons' closets and breaks down the secrets of their personal style-is truly a joy to look at and read. Plus, it's packed with gorgeous photos and interesting tidbits from fashion heavyweights like Erin Wasson, Diane von Furstenberg, and two key Charlottes: Gainsbourg and Rampling. Basically, it's the must-buy of all must-buys!

Betty Ford, who would have turned 95 today, brought the office of First Lady into the modern era. Written by Linnea Crowther. Originally published July 2011.
In this Feb. 26, 1975 file picture, first lady Betty Ford wears an Equal Rights Amendment button given to her by demonstrators. (AP Photo)
For many of those who grew up in the 1990s and beyond, "Betty Ford" is the name of a rehab center where celebs go to dry out, and little more. But we can't help remembering that the former first lady was in fact the driving force behind that revolutionary center… and much more.
Seen from one angle, Betty Ford was an unconventional first lady. While her predecessors tended toward decorum and genteel causes – Lady Bird Johnson's beautification project, Pat Nixon's volunteerism – Ford spoke her mind and didn't worry too hard about what was "proper" for a first lady. She had strong political convictions and she didn't hesitate to fight for the causes that were dear to her heart – abortion rights, breast cancer awareness, the Equal Rights Amendment.
Unconventional, maybe… but seen from another view, Betty Ford was simply a modern woman, a reflection of her times. The first ladies of the 1960s and earlier displayed their eras' preferred characteristics for women in the public eye: modesty, cheerfulness, and general agreement with their husbands' policies. But by the time Gerald Ford took office in 1974, American attitudes were changing. More and more, women were speaking out and taking charge of their lives and their bodies. Betty Ford's candor and passion made her a classic woman of the '70s.
Though Betty Ford didn't always agree with her Republican husband's viewpoints – notably in the case of abortion, which had Gerald opposing Roe v. Wade and Betty supporting it – it was a loving marriage, one that lasted 58 years until his 2006 death. Indeed, it may be that Betty's strong opinions helped influence her beloved husband's positions, because he revealed in 1999 that he, too, was pro-choice.
Just as Betty Ford was outspoken about her political views, she wasn't afraid to be candid about her personal life. Her breast cancer and mastectomy were national news at a time when cancer was still mostly kept behind closed doors. She was so public about her addictions to pain pills and alcohol that she established the legendary Betty Ford Center. It seemed no subject was off-limits to Ford, as she cheerfully discussed with reporters her sessions with a psychiatrist, the possibility that her daughter had used marijuana and had premarital sex, and even her own sex life with the president. Some citizens were shocked, but the majority loved the first lady's openness, leading to a 75% approval rating (which far surpassed her husband's).

Betty Ford did much to change our expectations of our first lady, and the women who came after her have reflected this – most have been, like Ford, unafraid to stand up for the causes that matter to them. From Nancy Reagan's "Just Say No" campaign to Michelle Obama's "Let's Move!" initiative, modern first ladies step into the spotlight to make the changes that are important to them. They can thank Betty Ford for paving the way.

Synthetic Sleeping Bags
The type of sleeping bag you pack and carry is an extremely important consideration when venturing into the outdoors overnight – especially if you're looking forward to a good night's sleep. Today's adventurers have options in down sleeping bags and synthetic sleeping bags, both of which offer warm layers and highly technical features that make them an essential part of your equipment base.
Although down is one of those natural materials that can't be duplicated in a laboratory, scientists have done a great job of coming up with alternatives that hold up to the weather just as well. By designing thermally efficient fillers that are lightweight and distributed to maximize your body's warmth, manufacturers have been able to come up with a synthetic alternative to down that provides all the heat you need and none of the heavy bulk you don't want. The main question to ask yourself is whether you will be faced with wet conditions on your campout. Once you get a down bag wet, it takes time to dry, and loses much of its thermal value. Manufacturers have done a few things to fight this, including waterproofing the shell fabric on the outside of the bag and using patented "waterproof down" technologies, but at the end of the day synthetic insulation is the safest choice if you know you're headed into a wet climate.
The Value of Synthetic Insulation
In addition the aforementioned issues, many people prefer synthetic sleeping bags because they can provide a lower-cost alternative to down. The insulation is waterproof and hypoallergenic, which means it can be used by more people than traditional down. It's also easier to clean, which means you can worry less about maintaining your gear and more about enjoying yourself out there. On the other hand, down sleeping bags have the most natural temperature curves and do not produce any kind of temperature spike before breathing.
The reality is that without proper rest, even the hardiest individual will be worn down quickly. That's why our premium sleeping bags from brands like Marmot and Mountain Hardwear feature the best synthetic fills. By featuring excellent warmth-to-weight ratios, compressibility, and durability as well as the superior ability to shed water and provide heat even when wet, these bags are ready for any season.
At Rock/Creek, we believe that you should equip yourself with the exact gear to match your journey – whether that means synthetic insulation, down, or any combination of the two.
The products in the Synthetic Sleeping Bags category have an average rating of 4.4 of 5 from 14 customer reviews.

This term shall not include new or modified facilities which are nonprofit health or education institutions which have been exempted by the State.
(A) The term "commenced" as applied to construction of a major emitting facility means that the owner or operator has obtained all necessary preconstruction approvals or permits required by Federal, State, or local air pollution emissions and air quality laws or regulations and either has
(i) begun, or caused to begin, a continuous program of physical on-site construction of the facility or
(ii) entered into binding agreements or contractual obligations, which cannot be canceled or modified without substantial loss to the owner or operator, to undertake a program of construction of the facility to be completed within a reasonable time.
(B) The term "necessary preconstruction approvals or permits" means those permits or approvals, required by the permitting authority as a precondition to undertaking any activity under clauses (i) or (ii) of subparagraph (A) of this paragraph.
(3) The term "best available control technology" means an emission limitation based on the maximum degree of reduction of each pollutant subject to regulation under this chapter emitted from or which results from any major emitting facility, which the permitting authority, on a case-by-case basis, taking into account energy, environmental, and economic impacts and other costs, determines is achievable for such facility through application of production processes and available methods, systems, and techniques, including fuel cleaning, clean fuels, or treatment or innovative fuel combustion techniques for control of each such pollutant. In no event shall application of "best available control technology" result in emissions of any pollutants which will exceed the emissions allowed by any applicable standard established pursuant to section 7411 or 7412 of this title.

Yoga FAQs
What is yoga?
The word yoga is derived from the Sanskrit word meaning union. It is an ancient system of physical and psychic practice that originated during the Indus Valley civilization in South Asia. The first written records of this methodology appeared around 200 BC in Yogasutra of Patanjali. The system consists of the eightfold path, or Asthangayoga. A contemporary interpretation of yoga describes yoga as a systematic practice aimed at developing harmony in the body, mind, and environment.

Boston's Reading Is Fundamental Programs Receive Back-to-School Support Through Book A Brighter Future
Macy's customers shop for less while supporting children's literacy in their own community
BOSTON—August 13, 2009—The Reading Is Fundamental (RIF) program at ReadBoston is a local beneficiary of the Book A Brighter Future campaign, a national partnership with Macy's to raise awareness and support for children's literacy as well as provide reading resources for children who lack adequate access to books. In the state of Massachusetts, RIF provides free books to 63,888 underserved children and in Boston alone, serves 50,000 children in 165 sites throughout the city.
As families in the Boston area prepare to send their kids back to school, Macy's is giving customers the opportunity to support local children's literacy programs while saving money with in-store coupons. The Book A Brighter Future campaign is an annual promotion held at Macy's stores nationwide during the back-to-school season. Through August 31, customers can give $3 to RIF at any children's department and receive a store-wide coupon for $10 off a $50 in-store purchase.
"So far, we've seen a lot of community support with this campaign," says RIF President and CEO Carol H. Rasco. "Through the Book A Brighter Future campaign, one dollar of every three received is being invested locally to support programs like ReadBoston and other children's literacy initiatives."
In 2007, according to the National Center for Education Statistics, 19 percent of 4th-graders in Massachusetts scored below basic reading proficiency, 32 percent performed at a basic level, 33 percent scored proficient, and 16 percent scored advanced. The proceeds from this important campaign will enable RIF to provide the resources needed to help increase the reading proficiency of those children who fall behind each year.
"RIF is building a brighter future for so many children across the nation by providing them with the reading resources they need to succeed in school and in life," adds Rasco. "Let's start this back-to-school season on the right foot to help build our communities and strengthen literacy skills for every child in need."

The civic organization has a strong commitment to patriotism and community service. In a presentation of the history of all the flags that have flown over the colonies and then the United States, Cub Scouts assist in displaying the flags before the audience in the Elks auditorium. As a finale for the afternoon's ceremonies, the frayed and worn out cloth flags are burned.


text: Every year the UMW (United Methodist Women) sponsor the Lenten Lunches during the 6 weeks of Lent. It is held at the Methodist church fellowship hall every Wednesday at 12 p.m. for a lunch of soup and bread. This luncheon was started as an ecumenical way to share lunch and celebrate our diversity while discovering our common Christian heritage. There were Five churches that participated this year, Ascension St Matthew-Pastor James H. Drury (Episcopal/Lutheran), Liberty Faith-Pastor Steve Jones (Four Square Pentecostal), New Life Ministry-Pastor Andrew Lasslo (Independent Pentecostal), Price Chapel-Pastor Dan Samuelson (Christian Missionary Alliance), Price Community United Methodist Church-Pastor Lester Huseby (United Methodist), and St. Anthony of Padua Catholic Church-Father Ed Metzger. This group of churches are known as the Ministerial Alliance. The free will offering that each luncheon generates is then given to a community action group, this year it was decided that the funds be given to the Children's Justice Center.

PITTSFIELD, Mass. — Thursday night it started to rain. Driving home from Lee to North Adams, stopping somewhere for a quick, inexpensive dinner seemed like a pretty good idea. On the advice of a friend in Lenox, we decided to try Lucia's Latin Kitchen.
Convention has it, you should not make up your mind about a restaurant until you've eaten there at least twice. However, as it turns out, my partner-in-life and I had already tried Lucia's delicious "home-cooking" at last year's Northern Berkshire Food Festival. Thursday night was actually our second time trying Lucia's cuisine.
Open for just 18 months, Lucia's Latin Kitchen specializes in Ecuadorian food but Lucia also makes plain "Latin home cooking." If you're in the mood for handmade tortillas, this would be a great place to go.
It was very hard to decide what to order on Lucia's menu. There's a lot offered, from paella-like rice dishes to roasted pork or lamb, to breaded shrimp, but we both chose beef dishes and were not disappointed.
Lucia's cooking is homey in the best way. Perfectly cooked rice accompanied my wonderfully seasoned, grilled sirloin. The rice was topped with four pieces of fried plantain, a staple in the countries where it grows. Plantain tastes pleasantly like a mild, less-sweet banana but holds its shape well when cooked and is generally considered a starch. The beans beside the rice were delicious as well, tiny pieces of roast pork floated in the savory sauce surrounding perfectly cooked navy beans — all of it obviously cooked from scratch. The beans and rice alone would have made a great weekday meal, especially accompanied by Lucia's citrus, greens and onions salad, a piece of bread and some plantains.
My partner's dish included french fries and rice, and also came with two fried eggs on the side. His steak was also cut thin, seasoned and grilled but unlike mine, it was topped with stewed onions and tomatoes. I'm not sure he would have ordered it under any other circumstances but as we came into the tiny room, a table full of joggers were tucking into this dinner and it looked too good to miss.
As we began our meal, our server brought a little dish of hot sauce to the table. It looked innocent enough, a little watery with visible herbs and onions floating in the dish, but if you go, (and you should) a little of this sauce goes a very long way. I had a little dab of it on my rice, it was tasty but a bit over my hot tolerance. I was glad I hadn't slavered my steak in the stuff.
Prices were extremely reasonable. Our meal for two came in at just under $30. You'd be very hard pressed to spend more than $50.
We accompanied our meal with Mexican soda, his in tamerind flavor and mine in apple. Happily full, we set off on our way north without dessert but I am saving up my appetite for next time, which will be sooner than later given the quality of the food.
Lucia's is tiny, the kitchen is wide open to the rest of the room and the whole place seats maybe 15 on a very busy night. As people discover this place (where you can get a whole roasted chicken with all the trimmings for under $20.) it is guaranteed to become more and more crowded. So get there before the summer people arrive and don't blab it all over the place, OK? I'm kind of attached to the corner table by the window.
Lucia's Latin Kitchen is located at 239 Onota St., Pittsfield; 413-442-4440
You can also find them on the web here.
This week, Guido's Market in Pittsfield seemed to be having a tough time selling poblano peppers. I love Mexican food and Chile Rellenos are easily one of my favorites. But because poblanos don't grow in New England, they tend to be expensive and as a cook who grew up in the north, the chances of my being able to do justice to these beauties seemed pretty slim.
At $1.35 for three good-sized peppers, I could be a sport. Time to try my hand at a Mexican pepper dish.
Chile Rellenos are usually breaded and deep fried — that's too much work and anyway, my husband won't eat a big chunk of deep fried anything. That meant they had to be baked, which is healthier. But would it still be tasty? Had to be, otherwise, I wouldn't eat it.
Next, I had to face the fact that we are always short on time and our kitchen is, shall we say, unsophisticated, so they had to be simple.
I decided to bake the peppers with a Mexican stuffing and see if they would satisfy my craving. The results were surprisingly delicious so now I have another budget supper dish that is relatively healthy and dead cheap. Here it is:
First, wash three mid-sized peppers and pop the tops off. You do this by pushing the stem of the pepper down into hollow center. The stem and part of the top will break off in a neat little circle and usually the seeds will still be attached. It's kinda fun.
Shake the topless pepper out over the compost bin, the rest of the seeds will fall out. Doesn't matter if you don't get them all, you'll never notice a few little seeds in the end.
Set the peppers aside.
Cut a medium-large sized onion in half, take the skin off and cut it into a bowl. You can dice it as fine as you like; I just cut little chunks off until it's all gone. It's easy and clean.
Next, get a few garlic cloves, three at least, more if you like, peel them and mash or cut them into the same bowl as the onion.
Take a slice or two of stale bread, any kind. The grainier it is, the better it will hold up. I like rye. Tear the bread into the bowl, (in fingertip-sized chunks.)
Find a few tomatoes or a zucchini or some mushrooms or a combination of the three but not a lot — one medium tomato, half a zucchini or half a dozen mushrooms are enough. Cut them into the bowl with your bread, onions and garlic, cut them small — once again, the size of your fingertip (just don't cut your fingertip!).
Cheese is next: use whatever you have in the fridge. I used about a half cup of very sharp cheddar, one called Coastal, that we like in just about everything. That said, it doesn't matter what kind of cheese you use as long as you like it. Your cheese pieces should be small, too,like everything else.
Next, dump in around a quarter cup of cumin. Yes, I know, it seems like a lot. Trust me, the second time you make it, you'll use even more. If you don't have cumin, use chili powder and use a little less maybe an 1/8 cup. If you don't have chili powder or cumin — are you sure you like Mexican food? Again, use whatever you have and like the most.
I add 1/3 cup of chicken stock, jellied. It's something I usually have around but if you don't have that, you can use canned stock or no stock at all — use a little olive oil and milk or vegetable stock or tomato juice or even a little bit of water. You just want it to be a bit moist, if you can add to the taste that's great but it will still be good without.
You can also add some chopped chicken if you eat meat or a handful of nuts if you don't.
Vegan? Leave the cheese out and substitute tofu or a cut-up avocado. If you like heat, now is the time to shake in some hot sauce, ditto for salsa.
Gluten-free? Use cooked rice instead of bread in the stuffing, and use gluten-free cheese or once, again, an avocado with a few pepitas (pumpkin seeds) inside.
Whichever was you go — now's the time to toss the stuff in the bowl until it's evenly mixed and then, using a tablespoon, fill each one of the peppers as tightly as you can.
Once the peppers are filled, lay them on their side in a baking dish and put them in a 350 oven for an hour. You can cook any leftover stuffing in a dish alongside.
The result? The skins of the peppers will look black but the peppers will be sweet and mellow. Everything else melts together and the result is a simple main dish that looks and tastes like a summer dinner on the patio but feels warm and comforting.
Serve with rice and a salad, or rice and beans or roasted sweet potatoes and cole slaw, whatever you like. Easy yum.
GREAT BARRINGTON, Mass. — Talk about spirited growth. Berkshire Mountain Distillers produced about 30,000 bottles in 2010 and is expected to double its production this year, owner Chris Weld told ABC40.
Weld opened the distillery in 2007 at the site of the former H.H. Peck House, once known of its beneficial spring water and now for the award-winning liquors flowing out of it, including Ice Glen Vodka and Ragged Mountain Rum.
News Station ABC40 visited the distillery and talked to Weld about Berkshire Mountain's growth and its increasing profile in the spirits industry.
Longtime North Adams eatery Gringos reopens on Park Street in Adams to reunite with former regulars.
ADAMS, Mass. — Gringos owner David Nicholas did not advertise that he was reopening at the former Firehouse Cafe on Park Street in hopes to have a quiet time to work out any kinks. That did not happen.
"It was the talk to the town for about six months and when we opened it was mobbed. Absolutely mobbed," he said.
Gringos, a longtime North Adams staple, was forced to close four years ago when the city sold the North Adams Plaza. When the Firehouse Cafe closed, Nicholas and his friend Burton Kirk, owner of the firehouse that once housed the Adams Ambulance, teamed up to reopen. Despite being closed for four years, Gringos was not forgotten.
Gringos Owner David Nicholas is confident that a new Park Street location will be a success.
"I think it'll be successful. It'll make money," he said. "It's just been a great response."
The former Firehouse Cafe recently closed down because of a lack of business. Kirk was leasing it out but when the cafe closed, it seemed it would sit empty.
The building is filled with history and character, Nicholas said. It was built in 1890 and served as the town's first firehouse. The restaurant seats patrons where the trucks used to be. The only drawback, he said, is that it is smaller than the North Adams location.
The restaurant has a smaller but similar menu with mostly Mexican but also some American food. It is open Monday through Thursday from 4 to 9 p.m., and on Friday through Sunday, from 4 to 11 p.m.

The Administration of President Barack Obama is weighing options for significant new cuts to the U.S. nuclear force, including a potential 80 percent reduction in the number of deployed weapons, The Associated Press reported.
According to the news outlet, the most modest option under consideration by the President would be a historic step toward disarmament, and a move closer to Obama's 2009 pledge to pursue the elimination of nuclear weapons.
The Wall Street Journal reported that the lower end of the cuts would limit the total number of warheads to 300, according to a U.S. official.
Pentagon spokesman George Little said the details of the proposals remain classified, but confirmed that the Department of Defense had been asked to create proposals for nuclear deterrence.
"The president asked DoD to develop several alternative approaches to deterrence and stability, to include illustrative force size and postures to best support those alternatives," Little said in a statement.
The Journal reported that the Senate in 2010 ratified the New Start pact with Russia, a treaty that set the current limit of 1,550 warheads, as the bipartisan support for its passage came after the Obama Administration pledged to modernize America's nuclear weapons.

OLD ORCHARD BEACH, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The dead of winter may seem like a discouraging time to think about running or going to summer camp -- but a benefit four miler encouraged runners in Old Orchard Beach today to do just that.
And you won't believe the footwear - or lack thereof - some of these people picked.
The 5th Annual Frozen 4 Miler traded-in last years' below freezing temps for 50 degrees this year.
The race attracted more than 500 runners, some of whom registered right up until the race.
Preston Curtis and Jennifer Kosinchuk ran the four miles without shoes. They say that running barefoot relieves stress.
"I had been running all season long in the summer, spring, and fall, but I had never done a winter run," says Kosinchuk. "And it was a perfect day; no snow on the roads."
After the race, Jimmy the Greek's restaurant treated runners to a pizza party.
