Chapter 75: Day of Resurrection
In the name of God, the Beneficent, the Merciful
I swear by the Day of Resurrection, (1) And I swear by the self-reproaching conscience, (that Resurrection is a reality.) (2)
Does man think that We will never reassemble his bones? (3) Why (can We) not (do so), while We are able to reset (even) his fingertips perfectly? 1 (4) But man wishes to go on violating Allah's injunctions (even in future) ahead of him. (5) He asks, "When will be this Day of Resurrection?" (6)
So, when the eyes will be dazzled, (7) And the moon will lose its light, (8) And the sun and the moon will be joined together, 2 (9) On that day man will say, "Where to escape?" (10)
Never! There will be no refuge at all. (11) On that day, towards your Lord will be the destination (of everyone.) (12) Man will be informed of what he sent ahead and what he left behind. (13) Rather, man will be a witness against himself, (14) Even though he may offer his excuses. (15)
(O Prophet,) do not move your tongue (during revelation) for (reciting) it (the Quran) to receive it in hurry. 3 (16) It is surely undertaken by Us to store it (in your heart), and to let it be recited (by you after revelation is completed). (17) Therefore, when it is recited by Us (through the angel), follow its recitation (by concentration of your heart). (18) Then, it is undertaken by Us to explain it. (19)
Never, (your denial of Resurrection is never based on any sound reason!) Instead, you love that which is immediate, (20)
And neglect the Hereafter. (21)
Many faces, that day, will be glowing, (22) Looking towards their Lord, (23) And many faces, that day, will be gloomy, (24) Realizing that a back-breaking calamity is going to be afflicted on them. (25)
Never, (you will never remain in this world forever!) When the soul (of a patient) reaches the clavicles, (26) And it is said, "Who is an enchanter (that can save him?)" 4 (27) And he realizes that it is (the time of) departure (from the world,) (28) And one shank is intertwined with the other shank, 5 (29) Then on that day, it is to your Lord that one has to be driven. (30)
So (the denier of the Hereafter) neither believed, nor prayed, (31) But rejected the truth and turned away (from it), (32) Then he went to his home, puffed up with pride. (33) (It will be said to such a man,) Woe to you, then woe to you! (34) Again, woe to you, then woe to you! (35)
Does man presume that he will be left unchecked? (36) Was he not an ejaculated drop of semen? (37) Then he became a clot of blood, then He created (him) and made (him) perfect, (38) And made from him two kinds, male and female. (39)
Has He no power to give life to the dead? (40)

I really appreciate this article for many reasons but let me focus on one of them. I've spoken to many muslims who honestly affirmed that allah never swears in the Quran despite of the massive evidences in the Quran. One muslim website states that allah never swears in the holy quran . Here's the website:www.answering-christianity.com by Abdulah a sunni muslim. Thank God this islamic website makes it clear that allah does swear. But why does allah swear by his creation by so doing associating the creation as his partner and yet according to muslim allah does not commit shirk?
He swears. That means he doesn't say worship my creations. God swears to emphasize the importance of the issue that he is commanding us to do.
The swearing does not really mean that Allah is associating himself with something else but in this case the taking of oath defines that the oath of something which Allah takes , indeed that does exist…. The verse was revealed in order to answer those who do not believe in day of resurrection and hence Allah takes the oath of the day of resurrection and affirms that it does exist….. Subsequent verse indeed proves that whom does this oath directed to and what does it prove….. [75:3] Does man think that We will never reassemble his bones? [i.e. never bring him to life after death to take the account of his misdeeds]…………..
Hence swearing of Allah to day of resurrection is actually not shirk but its a reality and Allah's taking oath on day of resurrection emphasizes of that reality…….
if it is important for Allah to have a partner he would have stated clearly but Allah clearly states that in multiple verses that their is only one God and that he has no partners swearing by Allah is their and found in many places but it doesnt mean he is taking partners. he swears by the dawn that doesnt mean dawn is a partner to God. he also swears by the fig tree,the night etc and to ultimately proof that they are not his partners the prophet(SAW) clearly states that we are not allowed to swear by anything other than the name Allah. lastly the creation he swears on is ussually relevant to the message that follows eg in suratul asr Allah swears by time that mankind is at a loss except those that believe, do righteous deeds, are just in their judgement and patient…..time is relevant here because the topic is about mankind's demise or prosperity and the short time we have to salvage ourselves. Allah knows the best.
Ramadan Mubarak!
Shirk means if men associate partner with Allah, then how can Allah do Shirk? I have simple question to you………..you beleive Jesus is God but Bible says different!!!
[Matthew 21:11] And the multitudes said, This is the prophet, Jesus, from Nazareth of Galilee.
[Luke 7:16] And there came a fear on all: and they glorified God, saying , That a great prophet is risen up among us;
[John 6:14] Then those men, when they had seen the miracle that Jesus did , said , This is of a truth that prophet that should come into the world.
[John 4:44] For Jesus himself testified , that a prophet hath no honor in his own country.
[Acts 3:22] For Moses truly said unto the fathers , A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
[Matthew 13:57] And they were offended in him. But Jesus said unto them, A prophet is not without honor, save in his own country, and in his own house.
[Mark 6:4] But Jesus said unto them , A prophet is not without honor, but in his own country, and among his own kin, and in his own house.
[Luke 13:33] Nevertheless I must walk to day, and to morrow, and the day following : for it cannot be that a prophet perish out of Jerusalem.
Deuteronomy 18:15-20]
[15] The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken ;
[18] I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
[20] But the prophet, which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not commanded him to speak , or that shall speak in the name of other gods, even that prophet shall die.
Can you answer this?
I tell in total truth GOD ALL MIGHTY AND JESUS HAS COMMANDED ALL PLACES OF WORSHIP TO CHANGE NAME TO ( GOD'S WORD ) MAND TO TEACH GOD'S WORD FOR THE HOLY BIBLE IS OF TRUTH AND THE ONLY TRUTH FOR NO MAN COMES UNTO GOD IN HEAVEN EXCEPT THREW JESUS. THAT MUHAMMAD IS NOT TO BE WORSHIPED AS HE WAS A NERE MAN. NO MERE MAN IS TO BE WORSHIPED AS A GOD AS NO MERE MAN IS A GOD AS I AM THE ONLY GOD. NO MERE MAN REFUSES MY DIRECT WORD IN PRIDE OF MAN LESS THEY RECEIVE MY SPECIAL PUNISHMENT. ALL TERRORISTS FIGHT IN FOOLISHNESS OF MAN FOR ALL FIGHT THE TRUE BATTLE WITHIN EACH OF US. WILL YOU OBEY GOD ALL MIGHTY OR WILL YOU BURN WITH PAIN MULTIPLIED ???????????????????
Can you tell me which version of the Holy Bible is the true? The English or Hebrew Aramaic or Greek or Latin Bulgate?

Redesigning your bathroom is an exciting project, with both financial and psychological advantages, since you'll be value to your home and creating a stylish retreat for yourself. However, before you undertake the project of redesigning your bathroom, check that you are following all of your local rules and regulations.
The specific bathroom design rules and regulations that apply to you will vary depending on factors like your municipality, the scope of the project, and the age of your house. For example, if you live in a condo, your association might have regulations about what kinds of remodeling changes are allowed. If you live in a historic house, your bathroom design possibilities might be limited.
Nearly all municipalities will require that you obtain a building permit before starting work on your new bathroom design. A building permit will allow your local or state government to determine that your bathroom design follows all relevant regulations, and does not put yourself or your family at risk.
Usually a building permit is required if you are doing work like replacing drywall or moving the position of your water line or electrical outlets. Major structural work like changing the position of your walls requires an additional permit, whereas minor work like replacing your faucets or floor tile requires no permit at all.
If you are not certain whether your bathroom renovation calls for a building permit, call your local government office for the exact rules and regulations that apply to you. Failure to take this step could be extremely costly.
There are also some rules and regulations to follow when it comes to details like the height of your bathroom sink, or the distance between your toilet and the wall. These guidelines help ensure that your bathroom is safe and accessible, so be sure to educate yourself about them before you start with your bathroom design.
By following the bathroom design rules and regulations, you can avoid hefty fines while protecting the safety of everyone who uses your bathroom.

Proteas bowlers out to prove a pointComment on this story
From a South African point of view, the Proteas' tour of Australia has so far been about a strong batting line-up maintaining its reputation for scoring runs against an equally imposing bowling attack that has temporarily lost its cojones.
In South Africa's warm-up game against Australia A at the Sydney Cricket Ground, the hosts compiled 480/7 dec in their only innings; in the first Test at the Gabba in Brisbane, Australia put together 565/5 declared in their only innings.
That's more than a thousand runs in two innings. And the wicket count for Vernon Philander, the Proteas' most successful pace bowler over the last year? Zero.
Reasons have been put forward to explain this, principally the fact that both pitches were slow and offered nothing for the bowlers.
Nevertheless, the pride of the Proteas' pace attack – regarded by many as the best in the world – must have been bruised.
The immediate future doesn't promise relief anytime soon for the pace bowlers. The Adelaide Oval is regarded as one of the best batting pitches on the planet, at least until it begins to deteriorate over the last day or so.
continued from back page
The current captain of the South Australia Redbacks, former Warriors and Proteas all-rounder Johan Botha, is certainly not going to deny that.
Botha's feeling, however, is that South Africa missed a trick when they failed to play their leg-spinner, Imran Tahir, in Brisbane. Yes, they were hit by bad luck when JP Duminy was injured at the end of the first day, but Botha said that Duminy is still something of a part-time off-spinner and that he wouldn't have had the impact of the former Pakistani.
"Imran is an attacking bowler and offers a lot of variation. He also has some great quick bowlers to help him out. The South African attack at the moment is the best it's ever been and I really hope Imran plays because he can be an important part of it."
Botha, 30, who has played five Tests, 78 ODIs and 40 T20s in his career to date, says that spin has recently become an important ingredient in the Proteas bowling armoury in particular, and the nation's cricket in general – something that has not often been the case.
The former Warriors player hinted that Tahir's confidence might be fragile as he has yet to reproduce his prolific wicket-taking form at franchise level onto the international stage. So far he has taken 26 wickets at 40.19 in his 10 Tests.
"It happens to all of us," he continued. "Whatever our experience, we want to put in a match-winning performance, take a five or six-wicket haul, so that the question marks around our place in the team disappear. If Immy could do that, it would settle his nerves, and that of his teammates, and enable him to forget about his place and just focus on bowling. I certainly hope that he plays here and that he is successful."
Botha said the profile of spin in South African cricket had grown significantly in the last few years, partly due to the amount of time the national team had played on the sub-continent and the way they had adapted to the conditions there. "That's been good to see," he said.

Welcome to Calgary Musicals!
When people think of musical theatre, they usually think of London, New York, Toronto, or maybe Vancouver, but Calgary has a vibrant musical theatre scene too. Check out this blog for news, information and a schedule of upcoming shows – your "one-stop-shop" for anything and everything to do with musical theatre in Calgary and area (anything within an easy day trip). Please let me know about shows coming up that are not on my list, errors or anything else you think I should add to the site.
To launch my new blog, I have set myself an ambitious goal to attend EVERY professional or community musical that opens in Calgary this year (and maybe even a few high school productions) and tell you all about my experiences – the good, the bad, and the hopefully not-too-ugly. This will get me to about 10 times as many shows as I typically manage to make (the best-laid plans…you know how it is), and hopefully will do more to broaden my horizons than it does to dull my passion. While there are many shows I would be keen to see anyway (the January line-up of Guys and Dolls, Assassins and Jeremy de Bergerac are good examples of these), there are a few shows, that, well … let's just say, I'll try to keep an open mind!
I have also set up a MeetUp Group so that you can come see the shows with me and share in the adventure and conversation. I hope many of you decide to join me.
Thanks for your interest and participation.

Judge Rwanda COE®
Coffee growing region: Southern Province.
As promised, I'm pleased to report on a recent coffee trip to Rwanda. I've just returned from the "Land of a Thousand Hills" serving on another international Cup of Excellence® jury. You may recall from past reports, the Cup of Excellence® is a non-profit organization founded by a small group of dedicated coffee experts who, in partnership with source countries, conduct a competition and auction as a way to discover phenomenal coffees and financially reward the coffee farmer. While the winning coffees won't be on US soil for some time, the story of Rwanda's recent state is worth sharing.
Bustling streets of Kigali, capitol city of Rwanda.
Rwanda has recovered and evolved into a vibrant country nearly 18 years since the unimaginable genocide. President Paul Kagame is astutely aware that aid money does not flow forever, nor do Rwandans want it to as they work hard to be self-sufficient and industrious. Rwanda strives to be a business hub and center for East and Central Africa. The road system is improving, streets are clean, a new airport is under construction (although I will miss the giant artichoke) and a massive Convention Center is rising in the city center. There is a palpable energy in the country.
Coffee quality is soaring as reflected by a challenging Cup of Excellence® competition. Jurors from 13 different countries made up an eclectic group, including Germany, Norway, Japan, South Korea, England, Russia, Czech Republic, Lithuania, United States, New Zealand, South Africa, Australia and Rwanda. By day 3 the jury had identified the top 10 coffees and we were ready to rank in order. For the first time a coffee received a ranking high enough (90 points +) to receive the President's award.
The grand COE awards ceremony was an outdoor event attended by 2,000 people featuring tribal dancing, music and heartfelt speeches. I will never tire of the unbridled joy of the farmers who win this competition. Designed in 1999 to elevate the idea that the very best coffee in the world is something extremely special, the Cup of Excellence® changes lives of farmers for the better.
Cupping for Excellence.
Along with the process of discovery and identification of the best coffee in the country, these trips are an opportunity to visit and determine the best growing regions, washing stations and milling operations in source country. Familiar with the Western Region, I chose to visit the Northern, Eastern and Southern regions of Rwanda as part of Cravens' unique verification efforts. As with all source countries I have visited, it is illuminating to see farms, villages, people and processes first-hand as a standard for Cravens Coffee purchases.
Cravens Coffee will participate in the COE Global Internet Auction in late October. Once shipped to the US, roasted and packaged this Rwanda COE coffee should be available for you early 2013. As always, we will keep you posted!
It is a pleasure serving you,
p.s. What else can we do for you? Reach us at firstname.lastname@example.com or on Facebook, anytime. As always, thank you for entrusting Cravens Coffee to source and roast your specialty coffee.

And all at once this world ended as I took my nails and ran down it's back
The blood, the juices flowing, was all too enticing to the mind
Earthquakes of screams jumped from my throat and into the great divide
Our god is dead; it died from bad karma, the jealousy of our worshiping another
The skylines caught fire from the breath of human greed (just like our creator)
I couldn't help but laugh as the bodies fell while our economy crashed
And what did it all mean on that day?
The death of our platform, the rise of the "insane"
Is this blood on my lips really from your flow?
Beauty of destruction
The death of a child
Tradition losing meaning
Blood sucked out of veins
You think I'm profane?
It is you who cause this existential suicide!

IRVING — In the end, few seemed surprised by the result: A team coached by Jason Witten was the champion.
A squad the tight end supervised claimed the title Thursday at the Cowboys' U high school football camp that featured a round-robin tournament of 7-on-7 games involving 160 underserved student-athletes from the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
Eight teams — led by Witten, quarterback Tony Romo, safety Gerald Sensabaugh, nose tackle Jay Ratliff, linebacker DeMarcus Ware, receiver Miles Austin, linebacker Sean Lee and offensive tackle Doug Free — competed on the practice field at the club's headquarters at Valley Ranch, where Cowboys stood on the sidelines and offered words of encouragement.
"It's great to be able to impact them through a game of football and it puts a perspective on what our job is day in and day out," Witten said.
The Cowboys, who held their final day of organized team activities on Thursday, adopted the format used at a similar camp head coach Jason Garrett hosts annually at Princeton University. And Garrett was pleased with the outcome.
"I was really proud of everybody…I think everybody embraced the opportunity," Garrett said, "and it was a great moment."

Or why not try... Creamed spinach
Simmer wilted spinach and double cream together until piping hot, then season with salt, pepper and grated nutmeg.
- First make the tomato sauce. Heat the oil in a shallow pan, then fry the garlic for 1 min until fragrant. Add the sugar, vinegar and oregano. Simmer for a moment, then tip in the tomatoes and season. Simmer sauce for 20 mins, stirring occasionally, until the tomatoes have cooked down to a thick sauce. Turn off heat and set aside.
- Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Put the spinach in a large colander, then pour over a kettle of hot water to wilt it (you may need to do this twice). Pour over cold water to cool it down. Squeeze the spinach, then place it in a clean tea towel and wring out the water really well.
- Tip the spinach into a food processor and pulse to chop, then crumble in the goat's cheese and half the Parmesan. Season with salt, pepper and nutmeg, then blitz until everything is finely chopped. Using a piping bag, or a plastic food bag with the corner cut off, squeeze the mix into the cannelloni tubes, then lay them, side by side, in a baking dish. Pour over the tomato sauce and top with the mozzarella and remaining Parmesan. The cannelloni can now be frozen for up to 1 month – defrost completely before cooking. Bake for 25-30 mins until golden and bubbling, then remove and leave to stand for 5 mins. Serve from the dish.

Comments, questions and tips
Decided on this recipe for a dinner party at the weekend thought I'd get ahead
but the filling only filled 120g cannelloni tubes which means there won't be
enough !!!! which is really frustrating, has anyone else experienced this problem.
Am now going to have to go out and buy more ingredients and start all over again
not happy about that at all because of this I'm only awarding 3 stars.
I really like this recipe, but I didnt bother with the processor I just wilted the spinach in the pan and drained it them mixed with the cheese, I used ricotta. I find its a bit dry without the tomato sause so I made my own and topped with shavings of parmesan and bread crumbs to make it crispy. Def worth trying.
I made this recently and found it to be really tasty much better than what you would buy. I found using a food bag with the corner cut off as a piping bag to fill the cannelloni tubes reasonably usefull.
The trouble I found with this method it was slightly messy. As I ended up with an air gap in the middle of the cannelloni tube and had to poke the mixture down with my fingers. Perhaps I need to purchase a piping bag to achieve a better result for next time.
Really tasty, and easier than I expected from the 'moderately easy' tag (although that might be because I made it as a lasagne rather than stuffing cannelloni tubes - much less messy!). I left out the nutmeg as I didn't realise I didn't have any until I'd started cooking: I didn't notice anything missing but I'll have to try it again, with nutmeg, to double-check (that's my excuse, anyway!).
Did this for a mixed group - veggie and non-veggie - and we all enjoyed it very much. Filling the cannelloni tubes was a bit tiresome but well worth the effort especially as the filling I produced seemed a bit moist! The vinegar and sugar gave the tomato sauce a good flavour. I'll try adding chopped mushrooms next time for a bit of added flavour. Would definitely make again - even for a non-veggie gathering,
This dish was really delicious! I also experienced problems with the food bag - it split and ended up having to try and push the filling in to the pasta with the end of a wooden spoon! Will definitely invest in a piping bag for next time. Was worth the effort and the mess though. I also added more than a pinch of sugar to the sauce as it was quite sharp tasting.
This was fabulous. I did make a few adjustments though. Added two pinches of sugar to tomato sauce and used Boursin garlic cheese instead of goats cheese. I didn't have enough filling though to fill 200g of cannelloni tubes. Served with mixed salad and garlic bread. The tip with the tea towel to squeeze out the water worked a treat too.

Jinan, also Tsinan or Chi-nan, China, the capitol of Shandong province. It lies near the Huang He, about 230 miles (370 km) south of Beijing. Jinan is a major railway and highway junction on the North China Plain. They city is noted for its many natural springs. Since the Communists gained control of China in 1949, Jinan has developed rapidly as an industrial center, producing machinery, electrical equipment, fertilizer, and chemicals. Shandong University is here.
Jinan's recorded history dates back more than 3,000 years. The city has been Shandong's capital since the province's establishment during the Ming Dynasty (1368–1644). In 1906, when still a walled city, Jinan was opened to foreign trade, and a European settlement was made. The Japanese occupied the city during 1937–45.
Population: 2,568,000.

Ever since the economy crashed and the government paid hundreds of billions of dollars to bail out the fat-cats who were responsible, a populist rage has been seething away across the country.
Home values have collapsed, more than two million homes have been foreclosed on, retirement nest eggs are decimated, seven million jobs have been lost. Hard-won feelings of financial security now seem like a distant memory. The economy is turning around, they say, but where are the jobs? And what about all the money that's been lost?

Born in Indianapolis, he teaches architecture in Princeton since 1962. His architectural works include the Portland Building and the Humana Building, the extension of the Whitney Museum of American Art, and the Newark Museum. He created the best-selling 9093 kettle for Alessi.
The Alessi company was founded by Giovanni Alessi in 1921 in Omegna, Italy. Giovanni, a talented sheet metal worker, produced items by hand for the table and the home out of copper, brass and nickel-silver. Giovanni's son Carlo, trained in industrial design, joined him at Alessi and was responsible for many of the designs produced in the 1930s through the mid 1940s.
During the war years, Alessi produced stars for uniforms and mechanical parts for Savoia Marchetti airplanes. After the war, thanks to an enormous demand for brass ladles for the U.S. army, the Alessis expanded the company and started mass production. Carlo's brother Ettore, who joined the company in 1945, was the first to bring outside designers to the company, such as the architects Carlo Mazzeri, Luigi Massoni and Anselmo Vitale. Since that time, the range of products offered by Alessi has expanded to include such items as office accessories and electrical appliances, in collaboration with a growing range of contemporary designers such as Jasper Morrison and Philippe Starck, all the while maintaining Alessi's commitment to design and quality.

Report: Verizon iPhone 5 unlocked for GSM, hack allows HPSA+
updated 05:20 pm EDT, Fri September 21, 2012
Discovery brings US iPhone 5 more flexibility for travelers
According to reports, the Verizon iPhone 5 is GSM unlocked out of the box, as per requirements imposed on Verizon. In addition, using a cut-down AT&T micro-SIM to roughly conform with the nano-SIM standard, the Verizon iPhone 5 is able to acquire an AT&T signal, and connect to the HPSA+ network, AT&T's 4G-equivalent network.
The iDownload Blog shows that preliminary, and limited, observations show similar speeds on AT&T's HPSA+ network to Verizon's LTE implementation. The phone being GSM unlocked on Verizon has implications for global travelers with the iPhone 5, depending on country, frequency range, and protocols embraced by the telecommunication companies.
The installation involves a piece of tape and a paper clip to hold the card in place, as it does not conform to Apple's new SIM standard, but T-Mobile and AT&T nano-SIM chips should fit without case modification. MacNN spoke with a FCC representative regarding the phone's unlock, and they confirmed that Verizon is required to sell new handsets unlocked on the GSM network as part of the terms of a deal allowing the telecommunications company to acquire more bandwidth.

Bigelow has two obsessions: the weather and a woman. Sent by the Weather Bureau to establish an observatory in early-boomtown, pre-WWI Anchorage, he is determined to prove his original meteorological theory: that a giant current of air sweeps in a circular fashion from the poles to the equator and back again. Pushing this goal to a secondary position in his consciousness is Bigelow's infatuation with an Aleut woman who lives a solitary and silent life. He follows her home from the general store one fall day, and a relationship begins.
Because the woman never speaks, Bigelow does not know her name or her history. Her body language is also mysterious, composed of straightforward stares that reveal no emotion, coupled with equally straightforward sex. Intercourse becomes central to their relationship, which quickly cements into an unvarying pattern. Bigelow arrives with an animal for dinner. The Aleut woman prepares the food. They eat. They have sex. She takes a bath while Bigelow watches, after which he goes home to sleep.
This pattern continues through the winter and into the spring, until one day the woman vanishes without a trace. In the months that follow, Bigelow struggles to remain afloat, weighted down by her absence, a loss exacerbated by the harshness of his surroundings: rough men, extreme weather, an unbeautiful city. Harrison cunningly weaves his despair into the bleak landscape so that each echoes the other. As she did in two previous works of fiction (The Binding Chair, Poison), Kathryn Harrison thoroughly immerses the reader in a world forever out of reach. She has a firm grasp of the intricacies of early 20th century weather prediction as well as the story of Anchorage's past. The result is both an historical education and a literary entanglement, fulfilling readers on numerous levels by the time they reach the last page. Susanna Baird is a writer living in Brookline, Massachusetts.

Welcome to the HenCam! I live in a small town west of Boston, in the United States. I don't have a real farm, but I do have a backyard big enough for chickens, two goats, dogs, a rabbit, a pond with koi, and a garden. This website is where I share my backyard animals (via four live-streaming cams) and chicken keeping expertise (via two blogs and FAQs.) I also am an author of cookbooks, children's books and collections of vintage photographs.
The cam on this HenCam homepage shows the outside run of the Little Barn, where 3 hens and 6 pullets live, along with a bunny. Check out more views of the animals at InsideCam, BarnCam and GoatCam.

It was a balmy, somewhat overcast day Thursday with temperatures in upper 70s and a gentle breeze. But it was a great day for golf.
The opening ceremonies included the traditional group of the honorary starters, the iconic Arnold Palmer, Gary Player and Jack Nicklaus and a jam-packed crowd was there to witness it.

I have heard and read in multiple sources that the top and bottom wheel on a band saw need to be aligned and in the same plane.
I had a discussion with my father who is not a wood worker, but a mechanical engineer, and his thought was that it really doesn't matter because the top and bottom wheels have an angle up to the center of the wheel. This forces the blade to move it's tracking location on the wheel from the lower edge up to wards the middle. And any difference between the two wheels is corrected in this angle shape on the wheel.
Can someone tell me why having the wheels in line with each other is important. Or direct me two a book that might explain it?
I have recently picked up a Jet Band saw, and the wheels are not in alignment by any means. I read in FWW#193 a review of the Jet and there complaint was that getting the wheels into alignment was not possible as the bearing shaft is just too short.
I'd like to understand what the reason behind bringing the two wheels into alignment is required for, before disassembling the whole unit to fix it.

The Cabinet Office has announced the winning bids to supply the multi-million pound Public Service Network (PSN) connectivity framework.
The PSN, first mooted by the previous Labour government, aims to cut the cost of delivering services by interconnecting disparate local government networks with each other, central government, the NHS and other public sector and voluntary organisations.
"The PSN will change the way public sector organisations work and interact, making it possible for government to operate in a much more flexible way," said Cabinet Office minister Francis Maude.
"We are confident that the PSN programme will substantially reduce the cost of communication services across government," he added.
The connectivity framework includes the initial building blocks of the PSN, mostly LAN/WAN interconnectivity design and deployment and business continuity.
Of the 16 original bidders, 12 suppliers have been selected: Virgin Media, Logicalis, BT, Cable & Wireless, Level 3 (formerly Global Crossing), Capita, Updata Infrastructure, Fujitsu, MDNX Enterprise Services, eircom, KCOM and Thales.
The value of the framework connectivity contracts is between £500m and £3bn, according to the tender. The contracts are for two years with one-year extension options.
The list of winners is a mix of the largest and smaller providers, fulfilling the Cabinet Office's promise to make more use of smaller suppliers to deliver its IT services.
"The 12 successful suppliers named in the PSN Connectivity Framework include small and medium-sized enterprises as well as major industry names, underlining our commitment to establish a more open and competitive ICT marketplace at the heart of the UK public sector," said Maude.
The results of a separate tender to supply services to the PSN will be announced later this year.

Note to self: Convince CIA to serve as book distributor for next Disinformation Company title.
Via Christian Science Monitor:
CIA officials had rave reviews for Boris Pasternak's classic Russian novel "Doctor Zhivago" — not for its literary merit but as a propaganda weapon in the Cold War, the Washington Post reported on Sunday.
Related stories
The US intelligence agency saw the book as a challenge to Communism and a way to make Soviet citizens question why their government was suppressing one of their greatest writers, according to newly declassified CIA documents that detail the agency's involvement in the book's printing, the Post said.
The Soviet government had banned the novel and British intelligence first recognized its propaganda value in 1958, sending the CIA two rolls of film of its pages and suggesting it be spread through the Soviet Union and Eastern Europe.

The Jeffco GOP is accepting applications to fill Jeffco Commissioner Faye Griffin's soon-to-be vacant seat on the Board of County Commissioners.
Griffin, elected in 2012 to a second term as a commissioner, will step down from the board when she is sworn in as Jeffco clerk and recorder in January. Griffin handily defeated Democrat Michael Snow in the Nov. 4 election to win a third term as county clerk; she previously was elected to that position in 1998 and 2002.
As newly elected Jeffco clerk and recorder Faye Griffin prepares to serve in her third different elected position in eight years — after she resigns from her county commission seat — a GOP vacancy committee is preparing to replace her on the commission.
E.V. Leyendecker, chairman of the Jeffco Republican Party, said the party formed a vacancy committee earlier this year after Griffin announced her plans to run for clerk and recorder — and to leave her term-limited commission seat if elected.
Incumbent state Sen. Andy Kerr pulled away from GOP challenger Tony Sanchez in District 22 in the final ballot count, winning by 1,047 votes in the Nov. 4 election.
In a South Jeffco district that was decidedly Democratic in the 2012 election, Kerr's lead over Sanchez fluctuated between 200 and 400 votes throughout election night. But last Wednesday morning, Kerr had begun to gain separation with an 801-vote lead.
While the rest of the country saw a drop in voter turnout, Colorado and Jeffco saw a record number of ballots cast in the Nov. 4 election.
The Jeffco clerk and recorder's office reported that 61 percent of registered voters in the county cast ballots in last week's election. The 259,765 voters marked the largest percentage to participate in a general election in Jefferson County.
Editor's note: With mail ballots in the hands of South Jeffco residents, the Courier is reviewing the candidates vying for votes. Republican Laura Boggs, a former member of the Jeffco school board, is challenging incumbent Democrat Jane Goff for the District 7 seat on the State Board of Education.
School districts in Colorado take pride in having local control. What role should the State Board of Education play in Colorado's public schools?
Three GOP candidates for the state Senate were threatened with legal consequences last week after their campaign fliers used the Jeffco Public Schools logo and a Denver Post photo without permission.
Fliers in support of Tim Neville in Senate District 16, Tony Sanchez in District 22, and Laura Woods in District 19 featured the same design and also included a doctored photograph from last month's student protests in Jefferson County.
Editor's note: With mail ballots in the hands of South Jeffco residents, the Columbine Courier is reviewing the candidates vying for votes.
As the 2014 campaign season draws to a close, Jeffco residents are choosing among three candidates in the race for county assessor.
Editor's note: With Election Day fast approaching, the Times is taking a final look at local races.
The three candidates vying for the county commission seat in District 3 offer a variety of views, and this week Evergreen Newspapers is publishing their responses to questions about issues important to the county.
The county's voters approved a 1-mill property-tax increase for the Jeffco Public Library in Tuesday's election.
Results showed the ballot measure prevailed with 53 percent of the vote to 47 percent.
Littleton has hired a director for its community development department.
The city named Jocelyn Mills, the current community development director for Frisco, to the position on June 15. Mills has been with Frisco for 17 years.

My Nonprofit Reviews
Review for Desert Aids Project, Palm Springs, CA, USA
This is my second time living in PS. I had bad experiences the first time with DAP, primarily in the area of patient/client confidentiality breaches by a doctor there. Now again i am their client and if anything they've gotten worse. I had to wait 2 weeks for a case Mgr to be assigned to me and when i asked about help with a utility bill this person opened the phone book, copied down the utility company's 800 number and told me to have a good day. The last time i was in there i was told they had lost Ryan White funding. I find it very telling, here, that the only good reviews are from people volunteering or in someway working for the organization. No regular client will complain as to do so results in severe retaliatory treatment. But what are we to do when those who purport to have our best interests in heart simply do not care? They are, unfortunately, the only game in town. I would move elsewhere were it not for my friends here. And i would advise anyone with HIV wanting to move here to consider the lack of tangible services and compassion at this organization before doing so.

Jet-Powered Batmobile is the Flattest Car Ever
This crazy, crazy "Flatmobile" is going to enter the Guinness books as the flattest vehicle ever. How flat is it? Nineteen inches. I think that's about how flat we'd be if we laid on our backs (depending on what's on our minds and what we ate for lunch). Not only is this Batmobile-like contraption dangerous, it's… »

Twenty Years
It's been twenty years since Norman came.
He'd walk passed the window and ring the bell twice,
Step into the porch and into our lives,
He'd hang up his coat and talk of his wife,
Some wine and then tea and a mutual grief.
It's been twenty years since the old man went.
Grey hair and a suit and a lingering scent
Of cigarettes and mints with an unbalanced sense
Of his unhappy heart, so hurt and unwise.
An affected life and an early demise.
It's been twenty years since I felt betrayed.
My empathy tested as I yearned and prayed
For that familiar smell and the noise of his car
And his key in the lock turning one turn too far,
But I was left with Norman and an unhappy scar.
It's been twenty years and now he's my mate.
His tales of the city and boxing at the State.
The docker's umbrella and his time spent at sea,
The Chindits, the barracks, an ale in Rigby's,
And a wealth of knowledge steeped in history.
It's been twenty years and all of that time,
I've had a friend who'd be gone by nine!
I wished he'd stayed longer, yet he'd never suppose
To outstay his welcome, always his right to choose
The path back to his home, my empathy no longer confused.
It's been forty years and fate has been kind
To me and my family and the wonderful find
Of these two good men who have nourished our lives.
Their input and experience, never have I felt deprived.
An essence between them upon which I still thrive.

Gulutzan calls out Stars' 'atrocious' power play
Glen Gulutzan called his team's power play performance Monday "atrocious," and then called out the man responsible…which, is Glen Gulutzan.
"Our power play, which I'm in charge of, I thought was atrocious," said the first year Stars head coach. "We need to revisit it, and we need to revisit our work ethic, because we aren't winning battles."
Of course, Gulutzan wasn't alone in accepting blame for the Stars' 0-for-7 performance in a 2-1 shootout victory against Phoenix at American Airlines Center. His top skilled players also said they were at fault.
"It's unacceptable, we have to be better," said captain Brenden Morrow of a man advantage that is now 1-for-14 on the season. "We just have to get in and see what's going wrong and fix it."
The biggest problem for Gulutzan is the Stars' inability to win puck battles and get traffic in front of the net. While Phoenix goalie Mike Smith did a marvelous job of taking careless dump-ins and clearing them himself, Gulutzan said there was a bigger problem than weak breakouts and bad puck placement.
"I would say those dump-ins were a little bit of a mirage, because we were in their zone and we didn't execute and we lost wall battles," Gulutzan said. "Then we get out of sync and we seemed frustrated, and I've never seen frustrated people have a tremendous amount of success. I think we have to revisit the power play and ramp up our work ethic."

Left tokenism, hand waving and soporific sloganising … bound to fail
Hopi Sen has stopped blogging, temporarily we hope, but continues to deploy his brilliance in, of all ghastly dark corners of the internet, the Comment Is Free comment boxes. To save you going there, I reprint his response to Neal Lawson, chair of Compass, in full here:
You're doing some really quite remarkable rewriting of history here. I'm just not sure why, because not all of the real story reflects badly on you. But I don't see why you are painting yourself as a passive observer when in fact you were a champion of a particular vision of what Brown might be as PM.
So for example, in an article entitled "Gordon the brave could do what Tony never managed" from May 2005, immediately after the last election, you argued :
"The election forced Tony Blair to say that he will listen and change. But if he was listening, he would know that the electorate and the Labour party want Gordon Brown to have his job. Gordon is a Labour giant. He has enormous energy, commitment and intellectual ability. "
Now, let's be clear – you also argued that to fulfil his potential Brown needed to take the approach you advised then, and still advise now. I happen to think that approach is a mish mash of cobbled together left tokenism, hand waving and soporific sloganising, but heck, that's what political debate is for, and you're consistent in your view.
Then in May 2006 you wrote an article for The Independent called "Why we think the Prime Minister should go now" (the "we" in the title is Compass) (your description in this article was"Neal Lawson is chair of Compass, a left-of-centre pressure group, and was an adviser to Gordon Brown ". Bit late to deny it now!)'
A year later, after Compass had endorsed Gordon Brown for leader against the advice of some on the left you wrote:
"Brown is the only candidate to lead us against the Tories. Like it or not our job is to make him as electable and radical as possible. I had illusions in Blair. More fool me. I won't [sic] that mistake again. But neither will I write Brown off. "
You say in your comment that "honestly I never tried [to unseat Blair]. My enemy's enemy is not necessarily my friend. Brownism was about control freakery and the liberation of capital – even though some of it was for good ends. It was bound to fail. I and others underestimated how quickly and badly. But there were no illusions " It seems hard to square that with repeatedly calling for Blair to resign, getting Compass to endorse Gordon, and calling Brown brave, a giant, and the only person to lead Labour.
If Brown was about control freakery, the liberation of capital and therefore bound to fail, why did you support him in August 2007 when you said:
"Brown could be the first Labour leader since Clement Attlee to recast British society – not by taking small steps but giant leaps." and "Brown becomes potentially the premier to oversee the transformation of British society."
I suspect you're right that you weren't "plotting" – you were doing what you did, out of ideological consistency and the belief Brown would deliver some of your agenda, but the fact remains you were trying to get rid of Tony Blair and replace him with an idealised version of Gordon Brown, and it seems odd to pretend otherwise now.
In fact, your position appeared to be pretty consistent from May 2005 to Autumn 2007. You wanted Blair to go. You thought Brown wasn't perfect but was a political giant and the right person to lead Labour, and you wanted to help him develop the new politics you have often spoken of. To that end you rallied support in the soft left of the Labour party.
Then of course, it went wrong, the illusions you had in Blair turned out to be repeated in Brown, and it looked like you had made the the same mistake again, so again, perfectly consistently you said that Brown should also resign. So why are you pretending that you barely felt a flicker of sympathy for the man, and never sought to help him achieve his ambition of becoming Prime Minister?
I have rarely read such a good debunking of the leftist mindset that thinks it has now got its party back. Again.
And we all know what happens next.Tagged in: compass, contemporary history, Gordon Brown, tony blair

Private Practice Season 3 Episode 8
Sins of the Father
Addison's father, "the Captain," shows up and turns her whole world upside down.
She blames her cheating on Derek on him, though, and tells him she's not his family, because the people she works with are.
Heather, a patient we've seen before, returns. As does Dell. He's married now. To Heather. Everyone at the practice freaks, and Violet and Naomi stage an intervention.
Then Violet visits Heather. Dell yells at her, and says what we've all been thinking - how she hasn't been there for her own son, how she left Pete, etc.
He says he loves Betsy, but he did this because he loves Heather.
Meanwhile, Charlotte's still in the doghouse after having lied about being married before, then Cooper turns out to be the liar when Evan's mom shows up demanding to know where his son is.
Cooper does know, but since Evan said his stepdad abused him, there's no way he's telling.
He even goes to jail and gets beaten up, but still won't talk. Facing 5-10 years in prison? Still not talking.
Charlotte becomes his accomplice, but Addison gives them up, and Evan's dad gets arrested.
Evan then stabs himself and admits to Charlotte that his stepdad never abused him; he just did it to bring his parents back together.
She tells Cooper and they have a big fight, then she opens her heart up and explains why she lied, and he brings up the almost wedding, which is even worse now that he knows there was one before.
When Addison tries to tell him she told to protect him and the practice, he tells her he gets she thinks they did the same thing (protecting those they love), but that she's wrong and he was right.
There's also a patient(s)-of-the-week storyline in which a pregnant woman wants her dying husband to meet the baby.
The cancer patient is Pete's, and he thinks positive thinking is the key, but Fife has an experimental treatment to try.
When it doesn't work, he suggests Addison deliver the baby six weeks early so the father can meet her, and the mother can one day tell her that her dad held her and loved her.
Addison balks until Pete convinces her by playing the Lucas card. It works and there's happiness all around for the baby, dying dad, and mom.
Naomi learns that underneath Fife's rough exterior is someone who cares about his patients.

does anyone know the name of the actress who played evan's mom? evan is the boy with diabetes and the mom's name was lynn.
Great episode. Not over dramatic like the last one, but still there was enough drama. I agree with everyone that Cooper is an ass. The way he treats Charlotte is horrible. He blames her for just everything. Violet is annoying the hell out of me. I get it that she is damaged, but the way she acts and puts her nose into everybody's life is irritating. She should focus on her own life and her own choices and get some therapy.
I hope that Pete will never take her back. I agree that Violet doesn't deserve him. The guy tries to be a good father and he still waits for her despite the fact that she totally ignores him and doesn't even try to get some help. Unfortunately it seems that writers want to put them back together and I don't like it. But still, despite a few annoying characters, I liked the episode. I even liked medical case, and I usually don't care about medicine on this show. I'm more interested in personal drama. I agree that Cooper, Addison and Pete shined through the episode. Cooper may be annoying character, but Paul Adelstein did a good job. Tim Daly was great as always in all his scenes, and KaDee did a fine job in her dramatic scenes as well. I can't believe how this show improved. I didn't like the two previous seasons, with the exception of a few episodes, but this season is really good.
I so agree with you J. Cooper was an idiot last night. Addison was right. And wow.. her father is a truly whore. Yuck!! And Oh my god seriously?!! I am dreaming? I just saw the promo of the next episode!! What a disgusting person she is. I hope Pete doesn't take her back EVER!! She doesn't deserve him and his son! I really wish that Pete and Addison end up together. I loved them together since forever. Looks like a great episode. Can't wait!
I loved the parts with Addison/Father, Addison/Charlotte, and Addison/Sam. Addison did NOT blame him for her cheating. She only said she grew up and did the same thing. That is NOT blaming him. That is the truth. Addison has a right to be mad at her father. How would you like it if you father used you your whole childhood so he could have affairs and used you as a cover up? Addison should have let Cooper rot in jail. I can not stand him. I am so sick of this "Poor Little Cooper" and "Bad Addie/Bad Charlotte". He is a idiot. My two year old nephew thinks every animal is a dog. It is super cute, but I don't believe him. Cooper needs to learn there is a difference between trusting and just being a total idiot. He helped that father kidnapp a child without real proof of abuse. The kid was just a brat who didn't like step daddy. WTF? Addison was right. It is the courts decision and none of their business. Cooper can take his little speech to Addison and shove it up. Addison was actually being nice to him and opening up to him in the end. Jerk! I really loved the scenes between Addison and her father. Stephen Collins was a great choice. Kate Walsh rocked the restaurant scene with him. So her father basically slept everyone she knew even her nannies and she had to lie for him. The end scene was sweet with Addison trying. Charlotte needs to dump Cooper and find her a real man! Promo for the 2 Hour Private Practice Event Episode looks great. Looks like Addison's family drama will blow up with both her father and mother there. Poor Addison. Violet sleeps with her father. Violet is gross.

Re: Your worst injuries
Worst part, having my mother (who was a med student) there during the surgery.
Age 7: Same year, just later, I was attacked by two German shepherds that tore off my right ear, tore my cheek away from the jaw and cheek bone, ripped a large chunk of flesh from my legg and left me bleeding until my brother and father arrived to save me. Took several reconstructive operations to fix my right ear and right cheek.
Age 11: I was involved in a serious car accident that fractured two vertebrae, herniated a back muscle, broke my foot and left me in the hospital for quite a time. Worst part: the catheter I was given in the ER. That hurt worse than anything else.

Re: Your worst injuries
As far as most embarrassing injury, I only got skinned knees as far as actual damage, but here's the story.
I was wrapping this woman's package (I worked at a shipping center), and I'd just got done asking her if it was fragile. Well, I come back around the corner to process it, and I couldn't see the ground for the package, and I tripped over a low-lying cart. I flipped all the way over the cart and the box went flying. The customers saw this and some of my fellow employees.
God, I was SO embarrassed!

Re: Your worst injuries
I've broken a bone only once, this past summer, actually. I stubbed my toe on a freeweight left in the middle of the floor in a dark room (my mother felt so guilty).
I've been in two bicycle accidents: the first, when I was seven, was pretty severe. The chain broke on my Strawberry Shortcake bicycle as I was going down a steep hill. I toppled over and sped down the hill on my side. It was summer so I had on only little shorts and a bikini top, and I got road rash down my leg, side, and arm. On top of that, the handlebar of my bike impaled me in the stomach. It wasn't terribly deep, but it was still rather gruesome. Fortunately, an old couple were driving down the hill and saw me fall, the took me home.
The other biking accident was here in NYC. An idiot woman opened her cab door into traffic without looking, even though on the inside of every NYC taxi there is a big sticker that reads: WATCH FOR CYCLISTS. Stupid woman. The door got me right in the hand, pinching my fingers. I was wearing cycling gloves so I didn't realize I was hurt; I was put off balance but didn't fall, scowled at the woman, and road off. About ten minutes later I was riding along wondering why my hand felt so wet. I stopped and pulled off my glove and found it full of blood; while the gloves prevented and scraping or gouging, the pinch basically caused a finger to burst, leaving a gash about half the length of my ring finger.
When I was two I was attacked by a dog at a public park, which got me by the throat and dragged me off the slide. I've been told that the bone where it bit me in my chin was exposed, but I don't really remember, and have only a small scar and a bunch of photos of me with a bandage tied around my head to show for it.

Re: Your worst injuries
Worst injury was the second time I broke my nose. I got into a fight in high school and decided it would be a good thing to take on two guys twice my size. I ended up getting face-planted into a cinder block wall. It broke my nose horizontally in two places and also split it up the middle to the base of my brow bone. One of the horizontal fractures went all the way into my left occipital bone. I also tore the cartilage in the end of my nose loose and collapsed several sinus cavities. I was a mess for about two months and I still have issues with it. (But I refuse to have the "nose job" that would fix it.) But I have to admit it was worth it. No one ever called me a faggot again, even in college. I wear it as a badge of honor. The queer fought back and almost won. (I also still have the scars on my knuckles where I knocked out the front teeth of one of the guys.)
The only other really bad one (and I do have a few including both my knees) was when I mangled my right shoulder five years ago. I was up on a ladder hanging a very large, very expensive picture in a house I was decorating when the hanging wire broke. Instinct kicked in and I decided to catch this 85lb piece of artwork before it shattered on the floor. Needless to say I saved the piece but managed to tear several ligaments, muscles and my rotator cuff. To this day I can't raise my right arm straight out from my side or over my head without some excruciating pain. But unlike my nose, I plan on having it fixed. It kills me when it rains or gets cold.

I'm out in my front yard gathering leaves when all of a sudden I have the back pain from hell. It hurt so bad I could barely walk. Lasted for almost a week.
Never did find out what was responsible--I guess I just bent over wrong when I was gathering the leaves.

Re: Your worst injuries
Really though, I dunno why I rode and fiddled. I usually stop for such things. It's not like I was doing it the entire 20 min. ride home, so that it was bound to happen. I took it out for a couple seconds to check whether I had a band in there.. Bad luck the guy popped out at the exact same moment, but it may be better it happened early on in my carless career, before I started getting even more courageous with bicycle antics.
