So, that was May and what an interesting month it was. A month that I had set aside and cleared to allow myself the space to figure out what I do next, and to sort my life out a little bit. I cleared every single weekend except one. I need to do it more often.
Head cleared and getting back in shape, life is starting to feel quite good again, instead of just chaotic and a little crazy. I was trying to do too much, and it was all getting a little silly. When I wrote that post about the major downside of being a food writer, I had reached as far as I was willing to go (actually much further). It was time to change things. I wanted my life and my body back.
I started to think about this past year. It was great in many respects. My first book, Comfort & Spice, was published by Quadrille. It was an intense period writing it. My body took a battering for it, and my head a little bit too. I am proud of that little book though, it was worth it, and I have learned a lot about how to do the next one (not commissioned yet but working on ideas before you ask :)
When I finished, I needed to get out of my flat and out of London, so I went to Argentina for a month, and kick started almost a year of reasonably intense travel. I won the OFM Blog of the Year Award, was short listed for the Red Hot Women Award. Recently, I was short listed for the Guild of Food Writers Blog Award (hearty congratulations to Poires au Chocolat who won last night). Absolutely wonderful and so flattering, there were a few tears.
It was a really good year but I worked very hard and I got so tired. I have written this blog for over 5 years without a single break. So I have decided that I am going to take one, and come back refreshed and energised.
Not just yet, as I have a few things that I want to share with you, but I won't be blogging as often as before, just for a little while, and then I am going to take a break. Maybe for a month, I need to think about it. I want to love writing here again and enjoy every post as I write it, and I want to feel inspired by what is around me.
I will still be running my cooking classes, which I really enjoy doing. I hope to see some of you there. There are still places available for all of them. People assume they book out immediately but there are always places so, come along, and join in the fun.
For now, I am off to celebrate my birthday. Just a little, as despite the queen trying to steal my thunder with her big jubilee celebrations, I will celebrate properly over the weekend with friends. Of course I haven't organised it properly yet, it is all a bit last minute. There will be no procession of gold boats going down the Thames for me, but I do have lots of lovely drinks and lovely people to share them with too. There may be some food.
Older, not much wiser, and hugely looking forward to it. Have a lovely day, people. Thank you, as always, for reading.
PS. that bird that was keeping me awake in my recent post? Well, one morning I didn't wake at 5 and thought, great, I must be used to them! I plodded about waking slowly while inhaling coffee. Later on I went out into the garden, only to be greeted by a traumatised bird corpse. A local cat or similar had killed it. I felt terrible. I only wanted them to be a little quieter, I never wanted something to kill them. Poor birds. The cheeping now is less frequent, and sounds lonelier.
PPS. Voting has opened for the OFM Awards again. Vote for all your favourites, and don't forget the little blog category in there too :)

Keyboard: CTRL + SHIFT + V; CTRL + SHIFT + INSERTMenu: Edit -> Cycle Clipboard RingCommand: Edit.CycleClipboardRingVersions: 2008,2010Published: 1/2/2010Code: vstipEdit0001
The Clipboard Ring keeps track of the past 20 items you've either cut or copied so you can reuse them over and over again! After you hit item 20, it'll go back to the first item again. This is why the feature is called a Clipboard Ring.
Give it a try! Copy a few pieces of text into your clipboard then keep pressing CTRL + SHIFT + V to cycle pasting them in the editor. This is one seriously cool time-saving feature.
Wow - I have been waiting for this for ages now. I think there was something similar in Office, but I could never get my head around it and gave up.
I have to ask myself - why is there not such a thing built directly into the Windows operating system ?
Not "build into" Windows. :< Just more reason to stay in VS! :> HAHA
It could be a security issue to do that at the OS level. It will be funny to read the last 20 strings from someone's clipboard. :)
Actual I use the free ClipX to achieve the same. And you can use it in any windows program.
Since I am using Ctrl-Shift-V for the same thing I'll have to change the shortcut in VS.
This is excellent stuff, but I want sometimes to remove something from the clipboard ring. Right now I'm going through and modifying a signature in all the base classes (26 or so of them?) and I have the most-used code for the refactor in the ring. Also, this other item sneaked in there and is not usable...I think I copied it by accident...whatever. If it were not the beginning of the day, no telling how big the ring would be. I guess I could restart VS and recreate the ring quickly, but here is my question:
How can I remove the bum items from the ring so that my cycling is quick, snappy, and efficient?
When I open a C++ projects properties, the option disappears & Ctrl-Shift-V just does paste unforunately
FYI: its now Ctrl+Shift+Ins in VS2010.
Hey Ed :)
Actually, both should work. I've updated the post to reflect the additional keystroke thanks to you. :)
Open a text editor (n++) and paste your text into there. Then you can grab the item you want to paste. Clunky, but it works.
How to reset clipboard ring or set its size? 20 is much to loop though.
Ditto is a clipboard manager that works in windows at the OS level (all programs).
AND it works within VS2013 (& I think in all prior versions).

West Monroe Mayor Dave Norris said the city prefers a sales tax so millage, garbage, water and other rates can remain low.
- Filed Under
West Monroe's Board of Aldermen is expected to vote this week on a ballot initiative to raise the city's sales tax.
Mayor Dave Norris said the city wants to bring the tax rate in line with Monroe at 9.99 percent, an increase of 0.49 percent. The increase could generate as much as $3.8 million, though, Norris thinks those estimates are high.
If the board approves the initiative, voters will have the final say in December. Norris said city officials wanted to start the process early so voters would have more time to ask questions. ...

The Meridian lamp by Lights Up! is really more of a lantern than a lamp; but it's really more of a Platonic ideal of Lantern-ness than it is a lantern. The base is a brushed-nickel finish, but it almost vanishes when you consider it against the column of light that stretches above it. The Meridian lamp looks more like a domesticated lightsaber than it does a regular lamp: pure light, tamed into a specific bacillar shape for a specific use (although without the nifty sound effects). The pendant version is neat too, and is available with a patterned shade.
- Materials: Solid linen or printed silk shade. Brushed nickel finish canopy with black cord.
- Notes: Uses two 100 watt max bulbs. Closed bottom.
All pendants come with 8 foot black cord with 5 inch diameter canopy.
- Product: Meridian Grande Pendant Lamp
- Brand: Lights Up!
- Retailer: Design Public
- Color: Black Blue Multi-colored Orange Red White

The House of Dies Drear
by Virginia Hamilton
The House of Dies Drear Chapter 19 Summary
- Now they are back in Mr. Pluto's cave, and Mr. Pluto is sitting at his desk, looking happy.
- Thomas and his dad are back in their regular clothes, and they've taken off the makeup. They are really tired.
- When Pesty comes in, after putting the horse to bed, Mr. Pluto congratulates her on her wonderful performance.
- Mayhew apologizes to Mr. Pluto for wanting to put him in the hospital. He feels warm toward his dad for the first time in a long time.
- Thomas tells Mr. Pluto that he scared him, and Mr. Pluto just laughs, saying he was really having fun.
- Mayhew feels bad for Thomas because he got scared, and Thomas starts to apologize for being a bad actor.
- Mr. Small assures him he was fine, and this makes Thomas mad. He starts beating himself up for being a coward.
- He says he'll go home and check on his mother.
- Mayhew says he wants to go with Thomas.
- Mr. Small will stay behind and talk to Mr. Pluto, then come home with Pesty, who is already sleeping.
- Of course, Thomas wants to walk home alone; he thinks Mayhew is trying to take care of him.
- Mayhew says he just wants to talk to Thomas and be friends with him.
- As they walk, Thomas tells him about his wood sculptures…
- Back in the cave, Mr. Small is lying on the floor next to Mr. Pluto's desk, on the verge of falling asleep.
- Mr. Pluto says that he and Mayhew are going to let Mr. Small decide whether or not to tell the foundation about the treasure.
- They trust him to "do the right thing" (19.33).
- Mr. Small asks if Dies Drear left a list of all the things in the cavern.
- If so, Mr. Pluto has never seen one.
- Mr. Small says that proves Dies Drear didn't want the stuff to be sold.
- He proposes that he make such a list, a catalogue of all the items in the cave.
- Mr. Pluto says that would take Mr. Small the rest of Mr. Pluto's life.
- In this way, they reach a compromise. Mr. Small won't tell the foundation about the treasure until he's finished cataloguing it. So, Mr. Pluto will be able to live out the rest of his life as usual.
- At Pluto's request, Mr. Small picks up Pesty to put her to bed at his house. He promises to be back in the morning to start the cataloguing.
- While they are having that conversation, Thomas and Mayhew are talking about acting as they walk back to the Small's house.
- Mayhew tells Thomas that he'll be here for another month, and he offers to give Thomas a month's worth of acting lessons.
- Thomas isn't convinced he has any acting talent, but he does want to learn how Mayhew can seem to disappear out of doorways.
- Maybe, Mayhew says, he can teach him that.
- Then he tells Thomas that he's glad they scared the Darrows tonight. He thinks it taught the Darrows that Mr. Small is not somebody to be fooled with.
- That way, they can't bother him like they did Mayhew's father.
- Plus, Mayhew feels more connected to his father now.
- Thomas understands that Mayhew never really liked Mr. Pluto.
- Mayhew says Thomas is right. He can tell Thomas does like his father, Mr. Small.
- Yes, Thomas does like his father, he tells Mayhew, even though it gets on his nerves that Mr. Small always figures everything out before anybody else.
- Still, Thomas admires his father's intelligence.
- Now Thomas asks Mayhew if he can be friends with Mac Darrow.
- Unfortunately, Mayhew doesn't think the Darrows will let Pesty or Mac hang out at the Small place for a while.
- They'll be ashamed and angry about what happened and need some time to get over it.
- He suggests Thomas wait until winter; when it snows, he'll find Mac outside hunting rabbits.
- When Mayhew talks about the beauty of the winter, Thomas realizes he loves this place, and asks Mayhew why he left.
- Well, Mayhew isn't prepared to answer that question.
- Back in the house, Thomas finds his mom sleeping on the couch.
- Without waking her, he goes up to his room and crashes out.
- In the morning, after a quick breakfast and a quick word to his mom and brothers, Thomas heads over to Mr. Pluto's cave.
- Mr. Pluto is welding a humongous lock for the door of his cavern.
- Mr. Small is already there, completely absorbed in cataloguing the treasures.
- Pesty is there too.
- She and Thomas are looking at the huge chest hanging from the ceiling.
- It looks really full, and Thomas is curious.
- But, he decides that he can just let that be a mystery for now.
- He and Pesty wait patiently to see if Mr. Small will need their help.
- And that's how the story ends.
People who Shmooped this also Shmooped...

Boston bombing suspects' aunt: This was 'staged'
Posted By -NO AUTHOR- On 04/19/2013 @ 5:08 pm In U.S.,World | No Comments
(HLN-TV) The Boston bombing suspects' paternal aunt spoke to reporters from her Canadian home Friday, saying that she brought Tamerlan Tsarnaev and Dzhokar Tsarnaev to the United States in April 2002. "Growing within the family, everything was perfect," she says. She adds her brother expected much from his two sons and she called him a "very loving, soft-hearted father."
When it came to the brothers' innocence or guilt relating to the Boston bombings, she was more skeptical of what authorities are saying than their uncle had been. She says she is "suspicious" and believes the pictures that apparently show the suspects at the scene of the Boston Marathon bombing were "staged."

Templeton, CA -- With three construction projects totaling $7.6 million scheduled to be completed by the end of 2010, Twin Cities Community Hospital shows its dedication to continued growth to better serve our community's medical needs.
More than 9,500 sq. ft. is under construction to provide Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), an integrated outpatient Diagnostic Center and additional medical surgical beds.
The new MRI is a GE 1.5 Tesla Hi-Speed LX MRI System. MRI can be used to image various parts of the body and is regularly used for neurological conditions, tumor evaluations and identifying muscle and joint disorders.
Chief Operating Officer Joe Badaliad said, "MRI is a necessary clinical tool for our patients and physicians. While we've had regular access to a MRI, we felt it was extremely important to have one on-site to increase patient satisfaction."
MRI provides much greater contrast between the different soft tissues of the body than computed tomography (CT) and is especially useful in neurological (brain), musculoskeletal, cardiovascular and oncological (cancer) imaging. The MRI was installed on Sept. 29, with full licensing on Nov. 9.
The second project is the Diagnostic Center, which integrates Radiology, Cardiology, Laboratory and Respiratory services. The Center is being constructed a cost of just over $2 million and adds 4,700 sq. ft. Twin Cities hopes to serve local residents outpatient needs by combining quality and one-stop convenience. Said Badalian, "No longer will patients be required to travel among several hospital departments to be admitted and obtain their lab, radiology, cardiology or respiratory studies."
Dr. Shannon Berry, an Internal Medicine Physician affiliated with Twin Cities said, "Patients and physicians are looking forward to in Twin's new outpatient center as a convenient, efficient, professional and affordable place to meet all their outpatient service needs."
The Diagnostic Center will provide reserved parking, three registration areas, convenient reception area, five recovery beds, two blood drawing rooms, two respiratory therapy rooms, EKG, Pulmonary Function Testing room and multiple imaging and cardiovascular rooms.
The third project increases the number of medical and surgical beds, boosting the hospital's bed count from 114, to 122. The project's investment exceeds $5.3 million in construction costs and will be finished in the third quarter of 2010.
With the new constuction, Twin Cities will not only be better able to serve the community's medical needs, we will make a major economic impact. The new services will require 39 more full time employees, all from San Luis Obispo County. This works out to $3,243,000 in new salaries and $76,000 more in incremental property taxes, for a total economic impact to San Luis Obispo County of $3,319,000total economic impact to San Louis Obispo County.
Twin Cities Community Hospital, part of Tenet California, is a 114-bed acute care hospital at 1100 Las Tablas Road in Templeton. Since opening in 1977, Twin Cities has provided personalized quality patient care as the cornerstone of its operating philosophy. Twin Cities' new patient tower, opened in fall 2007, provides 30 new private rooms for obstetrics, intensive and telemetry care patients, and 23 ER suites, including three trauma rooms.
Twin Cities Community Hospital provides a broad range of medical, surgical and outpatient care. Working closely with affiliated physicians, Twin Cities places special emphasis on clinical services important to local residents, including hip and knee replacement, surgical care, stroke intervention, emergency care and maternal child services.
Twin Cities and its sister facility Sierra Vista Regional Medical Center together employ more than 1,700 local residents, making Tenet the second largest private employer in San Luis Obispo County. More than 115 active medical staff members practice at Twin Cities and 160 local residents volunteer at the hospital.
The hospital is fully accredited by the Joint Commission on the Accreditation of Healthcare Organizations, the nation's oldest and largest hospital accreditation agency

Sweet drop. That melee is just ridiculous...
EDIT: I am probably like the last person to notice this, but I just realized the Standing Charge Shot of the Great Reaper Palm is far stronger than the Dash Charge Shot. I used one with DCS +2 and it only did like a little over 100 damage after 3 loop hits, yet the SCS did 141 after one hit with no + mod. It is my main goal to make one with SCS and DCF mods.

The Gamefaqs weapon data sheet confirms your discovery: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheet/...XOVdYaEE&gid=4
Besides, SCS is more reliable to hit for full damage than DCS, because the looping is not guaranteed.
It wasn't that long ago that I found that too Leo. Maybe a week or so when I used the GRP as I rarely use it.

Has anyone else noticed the Side Dash Cont. Fire of the Wolf Claws? I was just messing around with a pair of 2/0 Wolf Claws in the training room. All it had was Speed +4 and the side dash cont fire was hitting for around 17.2 for each hit (5 I think) and around 28.5 with max E. Charge. They aren't scatter shots like some claws and they have pretty good homing.

He did an outstanding job of getting everyone involved and initiating the offense, while also collapsing the defense and dropping the ball off to teammates for easy buckets. Anthony showed an understanding of a player well beyond his age, not forcing the issue a single time while we observed him over the weekend. Although Crater was excellent distributing the basketball, he did very little in terms of scoring. He often deferred to his teammates even when he had open looks for himself, leaving one to question his own confidence in his offensive game. There were opportunities for Crater to attempt to take over the game when Bridgton couldnt buy a bucket, but the point man continued to give the ball up instead of looking to score himself. Ohio State is getting exactly what they need from a point guard in Crater given the recruiting class that they have coming in next year. Fellow recruits B.J. Mullens and William Buford have proven that they can put points on the board, so the Buckeyes will not need Crater to score a ton of points. Given the scorers and way that Thad Matta utilizes his point guards in his offense, Anthony should have no problem coming in and playing quality minutes early on.

The global crisis—which challenged paradigms about the functioning of financial markets and had significant consequences in other markets—and the sluggish recovery since 2009, are a reminder of the importance of understanding interconnections and risks in the global economy. The increasing trend in global trade, and even more significant, in cross-border financial activities, suggests that spillovers can take many different forms.
The understanding of transmission channels of spillovers has become essential, not only from an academic perspective, but also policymaking. The challenges faced by policy coordination after the initial response to the crisis in 2009—illustrated by the debate on the impact of unconventional monetary policy in emerging economies—raise wide ranging issues on fiscal, monetary, and financial policies.

I had a few offers like this when I was selling my Thinkpad. It's amusing to say the least.

The laptop on ebay only go for like $1100. So for like last 3 hours and i am ebaying just searching and lots of people are dealing with this carp. Anyways all you newbie dont fall in to this trap. Let the auction play all the way out.

I believe that they will probably send the western union through bidpay.com, which is legitamate. The problem is, they send confirmation emails as if they are coming from bidpay, which they aren't. But they want the laptop as soon as possible, so they want you to send it ASAP (as in, before you "get" the money order). Someone tried to do this to me before christmas, but with some PS2's I was selling. I let it play out, but I wasn't sending till I got a money order. 2 days after the auction ended, they weren't a registered user anymore, so it got relisted and still sold for $250, and I all had to do was go buy one at my Walmart (which had a lot for some reason)...Originally Posted by kickercivic1

Rainy Afternoon
Here is the regional satellite and radar just before noon. Rain presses northeast through the day and it could locally heavy. Some parts of Mississippi are under flood warnings as heavy rain moves through that region.
The updated computer model shows widespread rainfall this afternoon. Yellow and orange indicate moderate to locally heavy rainfall. This is likely to last through the evening into the overnight. Areas south of the Tennessee River have the best chance of higher rain totals. Phil Campbell, Cullman, Boaz, and Collinsville could see upwards of an inch of rain while areas in southern middle Tennessee have a chance of 1/4″ to 1/2″ of precipitation through Thursday morning.
We don't need anymore rainfall. For the year Huntsville sits at 9.69″. Normally we see 6.73″. As of this morning, we are at a 2.96″ surplus with more on the way. Stay dry everyone!

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz. (AP) - The Forest Service says it is closing a
larger area near an Arizona wildfire outside Flagstaff.
The emergency closure includes the Kachina Peaks Wilderness and
all trails and roads near the blaze.
Officials are still trying to find out who left a campfire,
which started the wildfire, unattended.
An estimated 1,000 people who were forced to flee their homes
were allowed to return Wednesday. But the local sheriff warned
residents to be prepared to leave again if the fire lines don't
The 22-square-mile fire is just 20 percent contained. At least
10 miles of fire line still needs to be completed.

Congratulations! Laura James wins Cox Conserves Heroes award, gets $ for Sustainable West SeattleJuly 25, 2012 at 9:16 pm | In Sustainable West Seattle, West Seattle news, West Seattle people | 10 Comments
Just got the news, and that photo, from a proud Laura James – best known here as "Diver Laura," who has often shared video of amazing underwater sights as well as news of cleanups on sea and shore: She won the Cox Conserves Heroes award, which means a total of $10,000 for Sustainable West Seattle, her chosen nonprofit! We first told you in June that she was a finalist in this year's contest. Then, voting ensued – till one week ago – and today, Laura was announced as the winner. (She was the only West Seattleite among the finalists, who are all shown here; the other two will each earn a $2,500 grant for their chosen nonprofit.)
(Laura with Cate White, Sustainable WS Tox-Ick fighter)
ADDED 9:49 PM: We asked Laura for a comment. Her reply:
A huge thank you to KIRO 7, Cox Enterprises and the Trust for Public Land for helping fight the Tox-Ick Monster! Many many thanks to my Friends and Family – Facebook or otherwise – who voted, My dive buddies who make the dives possible; a special thank you to Kelle Fitzpatrick for nominating me; and West Seattle Blog for your relentless support! I could not have done it without all of you!
"Tox-Ick," you might recall, is the "face" of the Sustainable WS toxic-runoff-fighting campaign (read about the "monster" here and about simple actions YOU can take to fight it).
ADDED THURSDAY MORNING: Here's the official announcement, now published on the Cox Conserves Heroes website.

"Because this is a case of exceptional importance applicable to all clergy in the United States..."
Really Ms. Asiatico? This is simply a case of an overpaid pastor trying to bend the rules. 99% of the clergy in America will never have the means to buy a second home so how could this possibly be of "exceptional importance" to the clergy in America? If you are called to lead in the church, then you are also called to live modestly, a lake-front home is hardly modest.
Wait, so if I profess belief in the Tooth Fairy, get a few people together and become an "ordained minister," I don't have to pay taxes anymore? I love this country!
@ RT...I believe that you have just put your finger on it.
@RT ... While a minister of a church does enjoy the benefit of the parsonage allowance (excluded from INCOME tax if it is spent on actual housing), ALL of his income - cash salary and housing allowance - is subject to self-employment tax; meaning he/she pays the entire 15.3% (currently 13.3%) of Social Security on ALL of his/her income, unlike other employees who only pay 7.5% (currently 5.2%) and have their employers contribute the other half to their social security funds. Not exactly a "perk." With that being said, Driscoll was really "pushing the envelope" and I agree with the court's decision. "A" means "a" not "many."
You make a good point about self-employment and FICA taxes. Ministers and self-employed people do pay the entire amount while regular W-2 employees pay only 7.65% (5.65% right now) of their income. Virtually all economists agree, however, that the employer's share of FICA taxes also comes from the employee - in the form of a lower salary. That makes intuitive sense - businesses don't intend to lose money on an employee, so total compensation plus employment taxes plus benefits must average less than what the employee contributes to the profits of his employer.
The important thing is to remember to make the conversion when comparing self-employment or minister income with the "pretax" income of a W-2 employee. Divide the self-employment or minister income by 1.0765 to get the equivalent W-2 salary. Also subtract the costs of "benefits" like health insurance or employer contributions to pensions that are paid by the employer for W-2 employees, and paid by the person directly for self-employed persons.
RT: I am not sure where it says in the Bible that a pastor has to live modeslty. Many of God's more influential servants were extremely rich, while others were of very modest means. But the Bible does tell us to give unto Ceasar what is Ceasar's (ie, pay our taxes) and to deal honestly in all matters. It would appear that the pastors in this case did not do either of those things.
I agree with the decision as the intent of the parsonage exclusion was to enable clergy to follow their "calling," without being limited by the ability of their church to adequately compensate them with a living wage. That being said, I think that a large number of clergy working fulltime in their ministries are compensated well above the level at which they were when this exemption was created. The real issue should be whether or not a parsonage exemption should even exist. Why should any non-clergy taxpayer be paying higher taxes to enable clergy to exempt all of their home expenses from taxable income? For one class of citizens to earn a significant portion of their wages tax-free simply isn't right. In my opinion, the entire parsonage exemption should be repealed.
Indeed, the parsonage exclusion from income tax is being challenged in its entirety. See freedom from information in the ninth circuit.
How much money we talking about? http://churchesandtaxes.procon.org cites a bunch of people claiming the amount of revenue we lose to religious orgs not paying their fair share of taxes is in the billions of dollars. That's an economy affecting amount of dough. We should at least have a national discussion on churches and taxes. Thanks WSJ for being one of the only outlets to even mention this case.
JESUS is the example-setter! WHAT WAS HIS LIFESTYLE?? That's the pressing question. He didn't drive up in a Rolls Royce, sit the people down, collect tithes and offerings from them, then drive off to His mansion! The disciples WERE NOT security or armed bodyguards! THE DISCIPLES WERE DISCIPLINED LEARNERS! The so-called "CHURCH" is nothing more than a business and the congregants are its paying customers. HOW PATHETIC! This crap shouldn't even be in court but that's the mindset of Phil Driscoll and the majority of church leaders: POWER, MONEY, GREED! :'(
There are a number of groups that receive a tax deduction for housing allowance. One thing to note is most ministers are not making enough to own a second house, so this case is kind of an oddity. For most ministers, the deduction of the housing allowance does not make much of a difference in their total tax liability, because it is tax deductible, but not tax exempt. The payroll taxes must be paid on the housing allowance, which, for most ministers is by far the largest portion of their tax liability. Not many ministers are in the top tax bracket. Ministers also pay both halves of the payroll tax. The employer (church or other ministry organization) are not paying half of the payroll tax for ministers. This included income imputed to a minister if the church provides a parsonage. In that case the minister is paying taxes on income that will never be realized.
I know a lot of people in ministry, and most of them are not there for money, power, or greed. Don't look at the Driscolls as an example of the majority of church leaders. Go talk to the pastor at the church that has fewer than 100 people in attendance on a Sunday (the majority of churches). You will find that most are not in it for the money, and there is no power to be had other than the authority that comes from a good character.
I am sorry for whatever the church has done to you to make you think that the splashy "ministries" in the news represent a majority of the church. This has not been my experience of the church.
so crazy

By BRIAN TUMULTY, Gannett Washington Bureau
TAMPA, Fla. - Former New York Mayor Rudy Giuliani bashed President Barack Obama's record this morning while commending Democratic Gov. Andrew Cuomo for working well with the Republican-controlled New York state Senate.
Giuliani, speaking to New York delegates attending the Republican National Convention, drew distinctions between the two Democrats.
"Gov. Cuomo has proven to be someone we can work with,'' he said.
Giuliani also said it's crucial for Republicans to keep majority control of the state Senate in the November election, because "you need that balance."
He commended Obama for the mission that killed al-Qaida leader Osama bin Laden last year, but said that success turned into "a terrible mistake'' when intelligence about the operation was released, giving terrorists information on what the U.S. knows about them.
Giuliani also said Iran's leaders don't take seriously U.S. warnings about the country's development of enriched uranium for possible use in nuclear weapons. He said GOP presidential nominee Mitt Romney would change that if elected.
"They have to believe we might attack them,'' Giuliani said of Iran. "Mitt Romney can create that feeling.''
After his speech, Giuliani elaborated on his comments about Cuomo.
"I think we had over the first two years of Cuomo's administration a pretty good relationship, given what you see in Washington and other places,'' he said. "I obviously would prefer a governor that was more in favor of the private sector. Not as dominated by some of the Democratic special interests.''
Giuliani said Cuomo compares favorably to Democratic Govs. Martin O'Malley of Maryland and Daniel Malloy of Connecticut, whom he described as "falling-off-the-charts left wing.''
"I think there has been a pretty good balance,'' he said. "I think we want to keep that balance. I think a Republican Senate in essence keeps a Democratic majority honest rather than (letting it) do anything it wants to do.''

Countries and Their Cultures
"The focus of Countries and Their Cultures is on the cultures of the countries around the world, what is and what is not commonly shared culturally by people who live in the country. These commonly shared cultural traits include history, food, social stratification, political life, marriage, family, kinship, gender roles and status, religion, and the arts.
Encyclopedia of the World's Nations
This encyclopedia incorporates three major encyclopedias into one set - The Encyclopedia of the Third World, The Encyclopedia of the First World, and The Encyclopedia of the Second World. This consolidation surveys 190 nations and provides "a broad range of information based on a standard classification system, accompanied by an equally broad range of statistical data". The aim of the new encyclopedia is "to reflect the emerging world in the new millennium".
Encyclopedia of World History
This encyclopedia covers world history from the beginning of man through to the twentieth century. Included are numerous maps and genealogical tables. "The backbone of this book is chronology which, in the case of general economic trends, religious and artistic movements, and intellectual currents, is both hard to define and of relatively less significance. For methodological reasons, if for no other, we could give but flight emphasis to these aspects of history."
Hutchinson Dictionary of World History
This source "..has been compiled with the intention of providing as great a coverage as possible of global events from earliest times to the present day within a single volume." "The emphasis of the dictionary is on what is generally recognized as the historical era: that is, the period more properly the province of the historian working from surviving records, than that of the archaeologist working from surviving artifacts. The coverage is based on the three main divisions of history --period, nation, and topic. Major civilizations, events, and leaders, as well as, the world's nations, have all been included."
Illustrated Book of World Rankings
Intended "...as an international scorecard that compares and ranks over 190 nations of the world according to their performance in almost 300 key areas." "Each ranking or group of related rankings is preceded by an introduction highlighting the salient features and peculiarities of the topic covered."
Loeb Classical Library (Owens Library Collection, 115 titles)

New York Public Library Book of Chronologies
This volume uses a "...chronological scheme to present in clearest possible terms a vast array of reference information on history and culture. Unlike other chronologies of important dates and events, however, this book features chronologies on topics as diverse as literature, Antarctic exploration, the development of airplanes, football, and famous movies."
Oxford Atlas of World History
In order by date, this atlas looks at a variety of influences on the world. Included are health, population, politics, expansion, geography, ethnicity, religion, and economics which make this a great addition for those studying world history.
Oxford Classical dictionary (3rd Ed)
"For almost half a century, the Oxford Classical Dictionary has been the unrivaled one-volume reference work on the Greco-Roman world. Whether one is interested in literature or art, philosophy or law, mythology or science, intimate details of daily life or broad cultural and historical trends, the OCD is the first place to turn for clear, authoritative information on ancient culture."
Oxford companion to classical civilization
Shortened version of third (1996) edition of the Oxford Classical Dictionary.
Statistical Abstract of the World (1907)
Statistical Abstract of the World (1997)
This book profiles 185 UN member nations with the purpose to serve as "...guide to a world of information, covering such topics as the geography, demographics, healthcare, organization of government, science and technology and trade of the country."
World at Arms: the Reader's Digest Illustrated History of World War II
Following the war from 1930's Germany to its aftermath is the goal of this volume. It includes maps, photographs, and text. The "Reference Section" is a comprehensive chronology of the war including the human cost of the war.
World Conflicts And Confrontations
This four volume set covers conflicts within and between the nations of the world.
World History since 1914
This handbook brings together "...chronological, statistical and tabular information which is not to be found elsewhere within the confines of a single volume. The handbook covers not only political and diplomatic events but also the broader fields of social and economic history. It includes biographies of important individuals, a glossary of commonly used historical terms, and a topic bibliography."
Worldmark Encyclopedia of the Nations
The aim of this encyclopedia is to provide "a new approach to analytical and basic data on each country, as a separate political unit, and as a member of a vast family of nations". Individual articles on countries primarily include sections on government, history, economy, and education.

Nodine was supposed to be re-tried on a murder charge in Houston County. However, before the trail began, Nodine cut a deal pleading guilty to harassment stalking and perjury.
He was sentenced to 10-years in prison with all but two-years being suspended. Nodine was also ordered to pay nearly $9,500 in fines and court costs which he has been making payments on through a work-release job.
Valeska has not commented on the situation.

HOUSTON – As part of the mission to reach out to people and up to God, the congregation of Houston First United Methodist Church continued their tradition of hosting a soup supper during the annual Christmas parade.
The idea was born several years ago as members of the church gathered in the Family Life Center before the parade to get out of the weather. As the FLC is on the parade route, it was a logical step to invite others in to gather in comfort before heading outside to watch the band and floats pass by.
"In opening our doors and offereing soup to the community at the annual Houston Christmas parade, Houston First United Methodist Church provides a safe, warm and festive atmosphere for the community," said Rev. Rex Wilburn. "It is much more than just offering sustenance to those who are hungry. It is providing space for folks to celebrate community be being served and received."
Members of the congregation prepare and donate crock pots of home made soup of different varities and also provide tea, water and coffee at no charge. Soup is available before, during and after the parade for anyone who wishes to come in and join the fellowship.
Wilburn said the tradition follows the teaching of Jesus to spread His love out to the people.
"The soup ministry not only fills Jesus' teaching regarding, 'When did we feed you?' and 'When did we give you drink?,'" Wilburn said. "It also puts hands, feet and hearts into Jesus being present with the least, the last and the lost. At our ministry, one is able to see folks from all walks of life sitting at table with one another. We are thankful to be a small part."

Last night, the XNA Game Studio team released a Japanese version of XNA Game Studio 3.1 and the XNA Framework Redistributable 3.1. The Japanese news release announcing these products is located at http://www.xbox.com/ja-JP/press/release/20090709.htm.
Here are some links to help you get started if you want to use the Japanese version of XNA Game Studio 3.1:
One thing to keep in mind here – it is only supported to install one language of XNA Game Studio 3.1 on your computer at a time. If you already have the English version of XNA Game Studio 3.1 installed, setup will block you if you try to install the Japanese version afterwards (and vice versa). You will need to uninstall the English version of XNA Game Studio 3.1 and then install the Japanese version if you prefer to use the Japanese version.

I have a hard time picking between 'Once upon a midnight dreary' by Daniel Egnéus and 'Wreckless' by Mikel Nilsson. Maybe because they are so different from each other. I think that if I'm the lucky winner, I'll go for 'Wreckless', since I have been eyeing it for quite some time... There are more than one walls in my apartment that would be perfect for it.
good luck to everyone!
Maria [firstname.lastname@example.com]
What a selection. I had a hard time choosing between 'Angelica' by Sonia MariaLuce Possentini and 'Oshirasama by Philip Giordano'Oshirasama'. There is something that appeals to me in both pictures. But I decided to go with the Angelica, it just speaks to me more, I guess.
Please and thank you :)

Hi, I choose the 'Little Elephant' by Cat Zaza. It would look great in the baby´s room :)SvaraRadera
Hi there,SvaraRadera
My personal favorite from the bunch (and it took a lot of editing to cut it down to one) is House by Jonas Bergstrand.
It reminds me of home, New York City, but also has an international urban "generalness" that could place it anywhere.
It's whimsical and raw, all at the same time and makes me want to pack a bag and head for somewhere new.
Heather (firstname.lastname@example.com)
interesting to read thank you I really liked your article I love your beautiful blog and so enjoy your posts.good jobSvaraRadera

OMG I just love this photography ny Filip Herbst! http://www.artelimited.com/photographs/photographers/filip-herbst/photograph-by-filip-herbst.htmlSvaraRadera
These images are very inspiring. If I could choose one, I'd go for "Monika" by Martin Nicolausson. There are 2 reasons: I really like the unobvious irregularity of this solid figure. And having a work of art named exactly the same way as me, would feel as if it has been dedicated to me, made especially for me - what a luxury!SvaraRadera

Blondie's Is Where El Modena High Goes to Die
[Editor's Note: We all know local music and dive bars go hand-in-hand. So in the interest of merging the two together on Heard Mentality, we bring you our weekly nightlife column Dive, Dive, My Darling. Read as our bold web editor, Taylor "Hellcat" Hamby, stumbles into the dive bar scene every week to find crazy stories, meet random weirdos and guzzle good booze.]
Taylor Hamby / OC Weekly
I was sitting alone in this dark, very brown saloon, the only fully clothed female. A few TVs silently flashed sports. It had been dead quiet before a guy finally wandered over to the retro-looking jukebox. I whispered along to "Highwayman" by the Highwaymen until the thunderous riff that introduces "Los Angeles" by X burst into my ears.
Funny, I thought. I had never heard X in a bikini bar before, and funny that the girl who first taught me about the band also told me about Blondie's--in seventh grade. You see, her dad would hang out here until it was time to pick her up from Santiago Middle School down the road. And that's pretty close to the crowd here: middle-aged men, day drinkers and male El Modena High alumni finally old enough to drink. No, this ain't the place to pick up women, but rather to escape from the ones in your life for a bit. Even though the bartenders are female and barely clothed, Blondie's isn't a dating service for them, though our gal of the evening was professionally flirtatious.
In contrast to all of the stores surrounding it in this strip mall, with their lit signs announcing their presence, the bar has but a small white decal that reads, "Blondie's Saloon" and "Somewere in Orange, CA"--complete with typo. The walls have wood paneling, there are two pool tables with Bud Light race cars as hanging lamps over them, and decades' worth of old sports trophies lining the brown walls. The microwave behind the bar perpetually blinks 88:88. There are five beers on tap, the rest bottled, but no liquor. Bikinis yes, but booze no.
When I pulled out my card to start a tab, the bespectacled brunette behind the bar explained to me Blondie's doesn't do tabs--you pay as you go. If you want to use a card, you're charged a $20 minimum and a $1.50 service charge--but you get the balance back. A young man in a light-blue plaid shirt walking to the back of the bar dropped a $5 bill in front of me. "I got her beer," he said and walked away before I could thank him. Thank you.
The bartender explained the same policy to another patron a while later. Only this guy didn't get a blue-shirt benefactor--instead, a young man with a long beard chimed in. "But be careful," he cautioned. "Get charged the fee twice sometimes. I go home and look and say, 'Fuckin' bitchhh.'"

The families of those on board flight 370 remain in an emotional limbo.
Foong Wai Yueng's 10-year-old daughter and 4-year-old son keep asking where she is. Eighteen years as a Malaysia Airlines flight attendant, she was working aboard MH370. She loved flying.
"I told them mummy's going to take a bit longer to come home this time, and I even promised them I'm going to bring her home, but I really don't know where she is now, and now I am not sure whether I could bring her home you see," said Lee Khim Fatt.

He wants to know what he should tell his daughter. He says Foong is caring and loving. He speaks in the present tense.
"Of course I'm still waiting for god's miracles but it's just like what we want is the reality the true story," he said.
Showing off mobile photos of his wife, he says he is angry at the way he has been treated.
Foong was part of the cabin crew but lee feels the airline tells the media more than it tells him. He says he gets most information from televised press conferences, which is part of the reason he has hired a lawyer.
"It is not their fault that this happened to the plane so therefore they have to be compensated for their damages," he said.
Lee and Foong were together for 20 years, and he says they were happy. Now she is lost, and Lee says he has lost all direction.

The best price flat panel TVs are the budget conscious models brought out by Philips, Toshiba and Vizio and are the best TVs for price conscious folk who don't want to sacrifice on picture quality. Available for under $500 with relatively smaller screens of around 32" and below, the great thing about these TVs is that despite the economical price tag, they're still high definition TVs, so you can watch Full HD movies and videos in their intended picture quality.

The passage of the MD-CARE Act was a game-changer for MDA's muscular dystrophy community. The MD-CARE Act (Paul D. Wellstone Muscular Dystrophy Community Assistance, Research and Education Amendments Act), originally passed in 2001 and reauthorized in 2008, provides the research and the infrastructure needed to accelerate discovery and bring drugs to market for all 9 forms of muscular dystrophy. Since its passage, research in muscular dystrophy has exploded, and the bill has led to scores of clinical trials and improved health care for people with muscular dystrophy.
MDA has actively continued to fight for the passage of amendments to the MD-CARE Act that are currently being considered by Congress. These would expand on research progress made and keep momentum robust and focused. Among the areas of emphasis within these amendments are cardiac and pulmonary research and an increased focus on resources for adults living with muscular dystrophy.
Every day, scientists in some of the world's best research facilities are making exciting discoveries, developing new drugs for the treatment of muscular dystrophies and improving the quality of therapeutic treatment and clinical efforts — all at an unprecedented pace. Yet, tens of thousands of families living with muscular dystrophy are still waiting and counting on new treatments and cures. Increased federal support is needed to ensure researchers can continue making progress . A stronger commitment from the federal government will help ensure that MDA's life-changing momentum continues.
MDA is grateful to the muscular dystrophy community, as our combined voices and tireless fight helped ensure amendments to the MD-CARE Act passed in the House (H.R. 594) and Senate (S. 315) earlier this year. On September 26, 2014 the MD-CARE Act amendments were signed into law by President Barack Obama. Together, we have ensured the lifesaving research and clinical momentum put in place through this bill remains strong and focused.
MDA salutes our Congressional champions and their extraordinary staffs for their vision and leadership: Representatives Michael Burgess (R-TX) and Eliot Engel (D-NY) in the U.S. House of Representatives and Senators Roger Wicker (R-MS) and Amy Klobuchar (D-MN) in the U.S. Senate.

It'll take more than getting the X Factor boot to dampen the hyperactive spirits of deluded twins John and Edward.
The tone-deaf pair – known together as Jedward – were voted off the talent show by Simon Cowell, Cheryl Cole and Dannii Minogue on Sunday after landing in the bottom two with Olly Murs.
Jedward lap up the attention outside the GMTV studios this morning
But their trademark rigid hair was still standing tall and proud as they told GMTV that they're "up for any challenge" this morning.
They said: "We're up for any challenge, we've just got to think about it together and see if it's for us.
"Right now our main focus is the X Factor and music but we still want to pursue different things."
Big Brother's Rebecca Shiner shows off her gruesome tribute to the twins
And it wasn't long before their first challenge presented itself.
'Big Brother' housemate and Jedward super-fan Rebecca Shiner turned up at the GMTV studios to show the twins the new 'Jedward' tattoo she has had etched on her rear.
It's enough to shock them into silence. Fingers crossed...
Remembering Jedward

Classic fodder. Gotta love 'em.
Premiering in Super Mario Bros. 2, Shy Guys are one of my favorite fodder guys of all. They were so fun to throw around!
Winged or not, they almost always end up being a liability to Bowser.
Kremlings are some of my favorite fodder troops. I always loved Donkey Kong Country.
