We want people to enjoy their holidays as much as possible. Our 'Club Site Rules' are there to make everyone's life a little more relaxing and encourage site users and visitors to show consideration for others. We're sure you'll agree most of these are common sense.
As you know, The Caravan Code, The Countryside Code and Club Site Rules are things you've already agreed to follow as a member. There may be others that are specific to certain sites, but you'll find out about them when you visit the site. Seasonal, storage and base pitches have separate booking terms and conditions. Throughout we refer to the term 'outfit'- a term which is generally used to refer to a towing vehicle plus any trailer (including a caravan) or a motorhome.
a. Arrival time on site is after 12:00 or 13:00 and before 20:00. Please check individual sites for exact times.
b. The Site Staff have the right to refuse entry to the site where in the Site Staff's opinion a breach of Club Bye-Laws, health and safety and/or site rules may occur.
c. Once you arrive on site, you can take your pick of the available pitches for the pitch type that you have booked. If you have a large or very heavy outfit, you may need to be allocated a specific pitch. Please refer to individual sites for maximum length of outfit. Please check with the site before you arrive that there's a suitable pitch available for large or heavy outfits. If there isn't, you will not be able to stay on site. There may also be times when we have to allocate your pitch due to site layout or ground conditions.
d. Please have your membership card handy when you arrive on site as this will need to be shown. The Site Staff may ask you for some further identification as well.
e. When you arrive at the site, please see the Site Staff and pay your pitch fees for your stay.

The minimum notice required for any cancellation is 72 hours from midday on your arrival date. Visitors who cancel inside 72 hours, or fail to arrive at a booked pitch on more than one occasion between 01 January - 31 December will be contacted by The Club. Persistent late notice cancellations may result in a 14-day membership suspension and the cancellation of any forward bookings.
a. Pitches should normally be vacated by 12:00 noon.
b. If you'd like to remain later on site, not necessarily on your pitch, have a word with the Site Staff. Be aware that charges may apply if you stay beyond 4pm.
c. We understand that members and non members sometimes wish to leave site earlier than originally planned. However, we do ask that in these instances a minimum of 72 hours' notice is provided to the Site Staff of your intention to leave site early. This enables us to make the pitch available to other visitors. Failure to do so will incur a charge of one site night. 72 hours will be calculated from midday on the day of notification.
Please remember to check booking policies with Affiliated Sites at the time of booking as these may vary from Club-owned and Managed Sites.

Ference has surgery
Posted by Kevin Paul Dupont, Globe Staff June 17, 2009 03:55 PM
Bruins defenseman Andrew Ference, sidelined with multple injuries at the end of the playoffs, today underwent surgery at MGH for the repair of an abdominal hernia and he also had an adductor release, the latter to address his injured groin.
The surgery was performed by Dr. David Berger and Dr. Peter Asnis at Mass General
According to a release issued by the club, the 30-year-old Ference will miss approximately four to six weeks.
We are seeking a clairification on this point to determine if that means Ference must abstain from training for 4-6 weeks, or whether he will have to miss the first 4-6 weeks of the season--what could be upwards of 15-18 games out of the lineup.

The Washington Department of Ecology (Ecology) is sending millions of dollars across the state to help cities and counties curb the chief threat to urban waters – polluted stormwater runoff. The funding helps the state's most populated areas carry out their required stormwater permit programs. And it helps local governments to plan, build and improve stormwater projects.
Here's how the money is rolling out:
Ecology is providing $7.6 million in a supplemental stormwater grant program for 16 projects. This is unspent money from previous stormwater grant funding programs. The money will be spent on retrofit or low impact development projects.
Retrofit projects correct deficiencies in older, existing stormwater infrastructure. Low impact development projects use vegetation, healthy soils, porous pavement and other techniques to keep stormwater runoff on-site.
Also, Ecology's operating budget is providing pass-through funding to stormwater permitted cities and counties in a municipal stormwater "capacity" grant program. In this, 117 cities and counties will each receive $50,000. Capacity grants help local governments run their stormwater programs.
The best news for cities and counties is that the 2013-15 state capital budget provides $100 million for stormwater improvements under a new funding account called the Environment Legacy Stewardship Account (ELSA). The fund was created by a one-time transfer of money from the state and local toxics accounts. Of the $100 million:
• Ecology will spend $150,000 to develop and implement an ongoing, long-term competitive stormwater grant program to be implemented in September 2014. Under this, the state will provide $66 million for high-priority stormwater retrofit projects.
• Each of 117 cities and counties covered by municipal stormwater permits may accept up to $120,000 for stormwater project planning and design activities. Cities and counties who get this project-specific planning and design funding may then apply for additional funding for the construction projects in a competitive funding program Ecology will offer in September 2014. This is the first time the state has offered funds for stormwater pre-construction activities.
• $18.7 million is awarded for local stormwater projects as provisioned by state lawmakers.
• Ecology will spend a small portion of the $100 million to cover its costs to run the funding programs.

2001 Chevrolet Lumina • 130,000 miles
Battery and charging system not showing as bad when tested, but the battery goes dead all the time, like something is draining it. There are no obvious things, like lights, sucking power. I charged it fully and then after sitting a few days it had gone dead again. What is the most likely culprit?

The battery itself may be draining itself.

I have a 2001 lumina 130000 miles. We got it from my ladies mom. She had a similar problem for a while. Apparently went through a few batteries. Her dad figured out that the trunk light was staying on. He removed the fuse and we have not had a battery issue since. I am not positive about this though. It could have also been the glovebox light. I have often thought about just taking out the bulbs and replacing the fuse because unfortunately whichever fuse is out also controls the power door locks. I am now having a problem with my headlights dimming when I release the gas pedal, and their overall brightness seems lacking. I can also see a dimming/flickering in all my instrument panel lights and radio clock. I am thinking this is a battery or alternator problem.

Editor's Note: Brian Penick of local music promotions company The Counter Rhythm Group has been guest blogging for CityBeat monthly to provide a behind-the-scenes look at his journey to release his interactive industry eBook, Musicians' Desk Reference. Click here for his previous blog entries.
Enough with the chitchat — let's get down to business.For those of you that have been reading/following/listening/talking about Musicians' Desk Reference over the past several months, you might still have questions, and that is OK. At times throughout this process I have even found myself taking a step back to consider what exactly I am doing.
In reality, that is what this entire project is about — questioning. Specifically, it's about the questions artists inevitably are faced with in the music industry. You should question it all, everything, all the time. That where this idea came from and, frankly, how I live my life. And I would say it is working out pretty well.
But the time for questions is over — so let's see some answers.
What is Musicians' Desk Reference? It's a music industry progression eBook. What does that mean? It is an online platform (website) that helps artists work through common scenarios in the music industry, such as starting out, recording, promoting, touring and building a team. It is a time management system that conforms to your schedule and your level of interest. There is even a tool that builds documentation for you, in addition to the packaging, including several useful items, such as paper stock and labels for at-home printing.
This platform is designed for everyone — from beginners to professionals, and all those in between. You don't like reading? That's fine; you can adjust it to recall very minimal information. You like reading thousands of lines worth of information? Well, friend, you're in luck. Click away on our lists and just let us know you're okay a few months after filling your head with useful and practical information. If you are a musician that is interested in furthering your career to any degree — from a local to a national level — this eBook is for you.
Where did this come from? Me, actually. I am a musician and have been for half my life. I have spent years in vans, trailers, buses, airplanes, trains and even on boats playing original music all over the world. I have always been fascinated with the music industry and how it works, always wondering why things happened the way that they do.
This fascination led me start The Counter Rhythm Group, an artist development/marketing/event promotion company — built by artists, for artists — offering assistance groups that are younger and newer than ones traditionally serviced. TCRG has worked to develop a range of artists, from those that are still just starting out to some that you can hear on commercial radio stations, all over the course of almost three years. When the requests outnumbered the amount of work we could handle, I decided to build a public platform based on our actual working models. Fast-forward to the present day and you have Musicians' Desk Reference.
We have worked tirelessly for months (beyond the almost two years of development) building a robust product that is jam-packed with information for the user and I can honestly say that we are still impressed, even after staring at it for hours on end. We've even been testing the specifics on a young Cincinnati-based band called PUBLIC, and we are proud to say that things are going very well.
The best part is that the wait is almost over. I am very excited to announce that Musicians' Desk Reference will be available exclusively to the Cincinnati market at CityBeat's Midpoint Music Festival, three weeks ahead of the national launch in New York City at the CMJ Music Marathon.
Hear that, Cincinnati? We love you so much that we are giving you the opportunity to have this in your hands well before anyone else does.
What's that? You want more? All right!
We are also partnering with the fine folks at Midpoint Music Festival as a sponsor, offering a complimentary full version of the eBook to all showcasing artists. That's right, you play and it's yours! But what if you did not get selected to the festival but still want a copy? We will be on-hand all three days at our sponsorship tent— located at the MidPoint Midway Stage at Twelfth and Vine streets (right next to the MPMF box office) — selling the eBook for 25% off its regular retail price. We will also be presenting live demos of the site with the development team available for questions.
I could not be more proud of the work that has gone into
this project and I am forever in debt to the dedicated folks that have
been behind me from the start (including CityBeat music guy Mike
Breen — someone please give that man a gift basket full of money for all
he does for the Cincinnati music scene). (Editor's note #2: Large, unmarked bills only, please.)
We really hope to level the playing field in the music industry with Musicians' Desk Reference, educating artists and helping them to build a strong foundation to work from. We all have a similar goal for success in mind, however we define it, and I want this project to give every individual that chance.
As artists, let's take pride in our actions and help our peers. Let's step away from the competitive mentality and work together instead of against each other. Let's form a music community and celebrate the opportunities that are available to us. This is our industry and this is our time. Musicians' Desk Reference: Empowering Artists to Progress Through the Modern Music Industry.
Here is an introductory video for MDR's release:
Those retro/modern/futuristic urban-gothic sonics are perfectly reflected in the brand new video clip for "Oxygen." The ominous video — written by Thomas Stemrich (Director) and Josh Chiara (Director of Photography) of local band Holy Beast — was shot over three days in Northside and Over-the-Rhine.
The nutshell synopsis of the video:
"In New Berlin, in the basements of post-industrial mansions, lost youths pray to shrines for nothing and participate in rituals that don't matter. But tonight, one of New Berlin's daughters is through with the minutia, ready to dive beneath the insincerity of cult posturing, and finally awaken the beacon of change that swells beneath the city streets. Will this be another lost night in Neverland or will she finally meet the beast of her dreams?"
Stemrich and Chiara have made other music videos, including "Night Drive" for the local act Polar Sky (Polar Sky and Skeleton Hands both record for locally based Racecar Productions). Sharfe says "Night Drive," and now "Oxygen," are unofficially akin to part of a "series," with the Polar Sky clip setting the "New Berlin" tone initially, and the Skeleton Hands' video taking it further.
"In the New Berlin videos, we see Cincinnati through a dystopic lens," Sharfe says. "Prostitutes, cults, deities, people with holes in their torsos. Strange stuff."
Skeleton Hands are currently taking pre-orders for copies of Gone on vinyl. Click here to get in on the action. "Oxygen" will be available as a single this fall through Racecar. The single release will feature remixes, including ones by Kontravoid and the aforementioned Polar Sky.
The duo also returns to the MidPoint Music Festival this year, coming up towards the end of September in various venues around Over-the-Rhine and Downtown. Skeleton Hands is slated to perform at 10 p.m. on Friday, Sept. 27, at MPMF venue Below Zero Lounge (on Walnut Street, next to Emery Theatre). Click here for MPMF tickets (or visit Fountain Square Friday night between 8-11 p.m., where you can buy tickets in person — one night only — for $10-$20 off).
The grand finale of the season-long MidPoint Indie Summer concert series is Friday on Fountain Square. It's always a bittersweet moment — the free series ends for this summer, but that only means that the MidPoint Music Festival is less than one month away.
The MidPoint Indie Summer series concludes just in time to kick off Labor Day weekend this Friday. The show is headlined by internationally beloved/locally based Why?, which is set to release its Golden Ticket EP in a few weeks. The EP is the result of some fan-engaging fun on the group's website.
On the Why? site, frontman Yoni Wolf explains: "We would write a theme song for one customer who came to the … web store and bought something every month. Like Mighty Mouse. It would be a song about that person. We'd read all about them on Facebook and Twitter, and sometimes even go so far as to contact their significant other to ask them questions. Then I would write the song on piano and my brother would take the skeleton of lyrics and piano and turn it into a fully realized arrangement." (Read more on Why? here.)
(Wolf, by the way, has also been hosting his own very entertaining podcast called The Wandering Wolf (free for download on iTunes and Soundcloud). The show's have been hilarious and insightful, with Wolf chatting with guests like James McNew of Indie Rock legends Yo La Tengo, Cincinnati Hip Hop legend Mr. Dibbs and he and his brother's own father.)
Also at the finale, there will be a one-time only special on tickets to the forthcoming MidPoint Music Festival 2013. Those purchasing tickets in person at the Square Friday can buy three-day passes for $59 ($10 off) and three-day VIP passes for $149 ($20 off). Visit mpmf.com for the latest on the fest and mpmf.cincyticket.com for tickets (if you can't make it Friday).
Also performing Friday on the Square: Nashville's Moon Taxi and Cincy's Vito Emmanuel. Showtime is 8 p.m.
On June 4, one of the more beloved bands in Cincinnati (and, increasingly, the rest of the country), Indie Pop greats The Seedy Seeds, announced that they were going on "break" on their Facebook page. The post was worded to suggest this is an "indefinite hiatus" — the words "break up" were not used, but there's no sign of activity from the band on the horizon (fans are also leaving "R.I.P." messages on their Facebook page).
In the "break" announcement that sounds like a "goodbye" one, the trio writes, "While we each have new projects to which we must now turn our energies, it's very hard to imagine how to live any moments from this point on as anything but Seedy Seeds."
Some of those new projects have been making themselves known recently. Seed Margaret Darling has been performing her solo material regularly on the local club front and, yesterday, it was announced she has some touring in her immediate future.
The band Distant Correspondent, described as Indie Dream Pop and featuring members located in different cities around the world, announced that Darling will be joining them on their upcoming fall tour. The supergroup made itself known to the public earlier this year and received a lot of press right off the bat. The band features David Obuchowski from Brooklyn's Goes Cube, the U.K.'s Emily Gray (from British Post Rock crew and John Peel faves Meanwhile, Back in Communist Russia), multi-instrumentalist Michael Lengel on drums (whom Obuchowski met when he moved to Colorado) and Seattle bassist Tyler Wilcox, as well as fantastic Indie singer/songwriter Edith Frost (who is not touring with the band this fall).
Here's what Obuchowski had to say about bringing Darling into the fold:
Being in a band with members in different cities and even countries is pretty liberating. Sure, it's not always the easiest thing in the world from a practical standpoint. But the flip-side is that it affords us the opportunity work with musicians we love, even if they don't live close.
With that

Well, I guess they are somewhat opposites to each other... Now the real question is... Why has this person written vaginacunt before?
Dan Newton:
November 2, 2012 at 9:14 pm
Someone set their phone to type "vaginacunt" every time they typed "think". Doesn't necessarily mean they have typed it before.

Yes, I know that. Just making a silly comment.

In this lithograph, the U.S.S. Columbus and Vincennes are shown during the first unsuccessful American attempt to open Japan to foreigners. Commodore Matthew Perry would succeed in 1854.
The Battle of Manila Bay, a crucial battle of the Spanish-American War, took place on May 1, 1898.
This piece is an Austrian 6-pounder rifled howitzer manufactured at Vienna in 1843. Its weight is indicated at the forward end of the second reinforce as "7c 6f." In the Austrian measure of the time, this meant seven centners (hundredweight), six pfund (pound); the Austrian pfund weighed 1.23 of our pounds, making the weight of this howitzer 778.99 English pounds. This piece used what were called trunnion sights. An iron front sight blade is fixed to the right rimbase, and a portion of the right breech face is cut away to receive the rear sight. This piece is one of four in the Navy Yards collection (two more in Leutze Park, one in the Navy Memorial Museum) purchased by the Confederacy and captured in the blockade runner Columbia in 1862.
Material: Bronze. Wt: 778.99 lbs.

Putting others down? Shit, I'm not going to drag things out, if your fit is shit, sloppy, or tacky I will tell you. I'm not going to give any constructive criticism, the dude's know their shit is not on point, rather than me telling them why shouldn't they as people look back at their fits and be unbiased and see where they went wrong personally. Don't make assumptions about me, I would talk to you how I type, part of me being a human being and a nice one at that is telling you when something is wrong or foul, I'm opinionated just like every other person, and it seems most of the HB regulars agree with me that these fits and these ISSers need to get the fuck out.
oooh you're taht ****** with the oversized jeans
When I say leave..I speak for many. I run quite a few things actually that don't pertain to this forum. Throw dice? Hell yes, I'm cocky, even call me arrogant, but this mofos is shiiiiiite, I don't even recall if I called your fit a fail, if it was I did for good reason and what did I wear today, it's 03:21 am I'm in my boxers watching a film before bed...what will I wear in the morning, abercrombie & fitch....yessir, re-up money.

The fallout from the Rockies' signing of Jason Giambi continued Wednesday with the signing of utilityman Alfredo Amezaga to a minor-league contract.
General manager Dan O'Dowd explained last week that the Rockies could carve out a roster spot for Giambi by going with four outfielders. Translation: The utilityman must be able to wander out into the long grass and hold his own.
That brings us to Amezaga. The issue isn't whether Amezaga can play the outfield — he's appeared there in 265 games over eight seasons. It's whether his surgically repaired left knee will allow him to compete for a job against in-house candidate Jonathan Herrera, the favorite, as well as Chris Nelson and Eric Young Jr.
The Rockies have worked out Amezaga multiple times this winter, including Tuesday at Arizona State.
"It went very well. He's looked better every time," O'Dowd said. "We wanted to create competition and provide protection for an injury. He can play second, short and center. He might be a little slow initially, but if he's not healthy right away he can provide depth (in Triple-A)."
Amezaga has appeared in just 27 games since 2008 because of an injury. He underwent microfracture surgery on his left knee. His deal is believed to be in the neighborhood of $700,000.
The Rockies' 40-man roster is full, spelling out the challenge for Amezaga in spring training.

Xilitla Things to Do
WELL ITZ SUPER FUN IM REALLY YOUNG AND MY GRANDMAS HOUSE IS 30 MIN ITZ IN A SMALL TOWN CALLED AHUACATLAN DE JESUS SO EVRYTIME WE VISIT HER WE GO TO XILITLA AND SUROUNDING AREAS I LIKE THE CITY BUT I PREFER SMALL TOWNS! SO YEA LAS POSAS IS AN AWSOME PLACE!! WITH WATERFALLS AND EVRYTHING!Related to:
- Arts and Culture
- Adventure Travel
- Road Trip
Get some religion in the jungle
Xilitla is a wonderful place in itself; walking and walking around (especially way up on top of the mountains) is grand. However, the reason to go to Xilitla is Las Pozas, the enchanted garden built in the jungle by Edward James. I know I am going to call him Henry somewhere in here, but there is a slight difference between the two. One is incredibly uplifting. Edward!
The garden is basically 80 acres of jungle with a big waterfall. James made concrete structures ranging from huge orchids to three-story palaces with stairways spiraling up into the heavens. You should really go by yourself, if possible; I kept thinking 1) Oh my God, and 2) I am so glad not to be on someone else's schedule. If you have some thinking to do, get to the jungle. You can Google for more actual history. If you are reading this, I assume you are looking for my personal views, which are as follows: someone wrote that this place was not constructed according to logic (sorry, I don't have the link). That person is so wrong. There is plenty of logic; you are never stranded here. It is just not adult responsible logic. For example, if a bridge ends at nothing, look down. There may be a path across a huge concrete orchid (you may have to cross half a foot of open air) or the side of the building wall next to you may be stepped down to the ground. This place would give my mother a heart attack, but the whole thing is climbable; it just begs you to consider the whole as an integrated thing, not as Walls, Floors, and Stairs. And trying to look at it this way reinforces the Escher influence, and will help unstick your mind if you happen to be wrestling with anything that is driving you nuts.Related to:

Xilitla Restaurants
Restaurant [Really, that's it.]: It is next to the waterfall!
Enter Las Pozas and go to the left, through the gate and not through the ring. A few meters up the restaurant will be on your right. It's like a very comfy cave. Good service, cheap, good food; especially good after an afternoon of swimming in the waterfalls.
Favorite Dish: I had some nice queso fundido, and the tortillas were crisped with butter, which was a delicious if unhealthy touch. I also had a filet Don Tino, which was some delicious white fish in a picante sauce with sauteed onions, served with rice. Excellent. The chocomilk licuado was good, too.Related to:

Xilitla Transportation
Flecha Amarilla straight to Hell
Queretaro bus terminal, sala C. Currently buses run at 5 and 7 a.m. and 1 p.m.; cost is around U.S. $16 one-way. Bus passes through Jalpan. Buses back to Queretaro are more frequent.
Okay, if you are a wuss, then do not go to Xilitla. Especially from Queretaro. The bus trip takes about 7 hours (on a good day), at least four of which are through the Sierra Gorda. This is incredibly beautiful; you go from mountainous desert to mountainous jungle. This is also incredibly dangerous. Mexican drivers are notorious for inducing terror in passengers. Usually, on a bus, this is not such a bad thing. If you get in an accident, the bus is not the vehicle which will be smashed. HOWEVER. Four hours of hairpin switchbacks at 50 mph. Four hours of not hearing the brakes go off. Yikes. Beautiful trip, but if you are afraid of heights, never mind Las Pozas; you won't make it through the bus ride there.Related to:

Xilitla Warnings and Dangers
Congratulations! You are married.
This is not specific to Xilitla, and will probably affect you more on your WAY to Xilitla, but please, if you are female and traveling alone, remember your traveling jewelry. Something vaguely resembling a wedding ring, and also a cross, will be very useful. These items will fend off vampires more reliably than they will fend off overly friendly travelers/bus personnel, but at least the ring helps put some weight behind your "No, gracias."Related to:
- Gay and Lesbian
- Women's Travel
- Singles
Bring sneakers.
Please be aware that Xilitla is a mountain village, and Las Pozas was built as a private garden there. While there are, generally speaking, defined and marked paths through the garden, the rock is uneven. You ARE along the side of a mountain. The roads leading to the garden are Mexican. If you do not have sturdy ankles and knees, and if you do not like feeling like a little mountain goat, and clambering around getting all sweaty is not your idea of a good time, I am afraid you will not be pleased here. Wear good shoes. Be prepared to work. You will receive great rewards, but you will clamber, climb, crawl and crabwalk (down the stairs that you were too scared to climb all the way up).Related to:
- Women's Travel
- Hiking and Walking
- Jungle and Rain Forest
Don't Forget Insurance
If your current health insurance doesn't cover you while your abroad, you should consider getting international travel insurance just in case something should go wrong.
Xilitla Favorites
Sleep as much as you can...
Favorite thing: After walking and walking... take a good sleep while driving several hours back to your hotel or home.

Words of Life
2010-11-02 by Stephen Schuette
Luke 20:27-38 (or to 40). The first step for me in coming to terms with the meaning of this passage is to be clear about what Jesus did not intend. Viewing it through modern eyes I bring some assumptions to it. Of course, from a modern social point of view it is ridiculous for people to marry again and again based on a levirate injunction (Deut. 25:5-6). Of course, projecting forward beyond this life to marriage in a future life makes no sense. Of course, given our "advanced" sensibilities about individual identity, civil rights, and personal choice in marriage these traditions are all anachronistic. But I don't think Jesus intended to address the question from a modern, individualistic point of view.
It's impressive how mired the question is in death. You can imagine seven graves next to each other and finally one more for the woman herself. You can imagine hopes for children that never materialized, perhaps understanding that through couples who struggle with fertility. It's difficult to picture the mounting marriages being occasions of joy but rather necessities coming from death. Mourning and sorrow virtually drips from every word. Yet the Sadducees offer just a cold and clinical description of the situation, the facts of life, betraying no compassion about it whatsoever.
So it's not so much the facts of the debate itself that I find of interest. It's the tone and message that speaks, speaks not only to the human situation but also to the identity of God for the Sadducees and Jesus. That may be the real heart of the matter which Jesus poses back: is your God the God of the dead or the living? It's clear the Sadducees have no answer for their own question, or perhaps even more important, for the sorrow and grief of the entire situation. That's where I think Jesus, and the God of Jesus, part company with them.
Jesus' answer is not to engage in the circumstances of the situation. Nor does he debate the ridiculousness of the rules that led to it. Rather he speaks hope to the despair. And isn't the God of hope the God that was known and revealed through Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God of both Pharisee and Sadducee?
Perhaps this story is for me and the part of me that is mired in death more than I know and like the Sadducees I am so mired in it I am oblivious to it. So I need to hear again those wonderful words of life. Whether sung or spoken, I need them.
Ask a silly question....?
2010-11-01 by Rina Terry
How many times have I asked God a silly question? If we all pooled our "Silly Questions I've Asked God," we might have a bestseller on our hands.
Though the Sadducees' question seems absurd in our day, perhaps it had more legitimacy in Jesus' day. Yet, back in vs 20, "They watched for their opportunity...in order to catch him in his speech." We can't help but think that this is one more attempt to trip up Jesus. Yet, he gets a bit of affirmation where we least expect it.
Such a premise for a sermon approach opens up lots of opportunity to talk about how we can find moments when we can affirm even those with whom we generally disagree.
Jesus doesn't get sarcastic, he doesn't try to dazzle, he doesn't set out to discredit. Jesus just gives a straightforward answer and some of his hearers admit it was a good answer.
There are times though when I fire God a laundry list of questions on a particular issue.
When I am incensed at the ongoing perversion of justice in our criminal "justice" system, those niggling questions come doing its Tigger bounce in my brain: "God, don't you give a damn that this is happening? Don't you care that we are in desperate need of sentencing reform? Can't you do anything about the blatant racism in the system? Do you truly want developmentally disturbed people executed in the name of justice? How did you let our greed create a prison industrial complex?" I'm not doing a rhetorical tirade here. I really want to know the answer.
The people in the pews must be full of their own extended questions. The old, "There are no silly questions." approach will preach just fine here.
These are my first thoughts as I walk with the gospel into the week.
God Where We Are
2010-10-31 by Guy Kent
The Battle of Opis took place along the Tigris River near present day Baghdad in the year 539 BCE. Cyrus the Great of Persia was the victor over Nabonidus of Babylon. It was a fortuitous day for the Hebrews in captivity in Babylon. Three years later the victorious Cyrus would issue an Edict that allowed the descendants of Abraham to return to their homeland, a place they'd not seen in fifty years.
It's not a difficult task to imagine the clash of personalities, beliefs, priorities, and approaches that confronted this newly re-populated Jerusalem. Here were Jews who had no memory of what Jerusalem "used to be" coming home to be greeted by those left behind who clung to a distant memory of that day when their nation and their God was so prominent.
Halfway through my ministry I took a detour. Actually, it was a couple of detours. For several years a prominent businessman allowed me an executive position in his company. That, in turn, allowed me to recruit, train and employ inner city youth whose prospects for climbing out of poverty were slim. That adventure was followed by almost a decade of serving as the chaplain at a secondary military school. And then my self-imposed exile ended and I returned home.
I was like a lost refugee in search of an identity. Everything had changed. The laity were assisting in the celebration of the Lord's Supper; preachers were wearing golf shirts. I felt not only old-fashioned but down right out of touch in my Sunday best dress suit. There were screens on the walls where the lyrics of the songs were projected. And the songs, oh my, we were not singing The Lily of the Valley anymore. This was a different music.
It was culture shock. And I don't have the foggiest why it should have been. I had found God in the hallways of that business where forgotten youth learned of the God of another chance. I found God among the cadets of many religions in that military academy. It took me a while to get accustomed to the changes from the church I'd left to the one to which I returned. As such I can identify with those Jews Cyrus set free to return to Jerusalem.
So often our lives are caught between where God used to be experienced and where we hope to someday experience God. But our hope lies in the message of Haggai that we find God where we are and not where we wish we could be.
One-eyed Saint
2010-10-30 by Rina Terry
Alan Ginsburg once said of fellow poet Robert Creeley that he saw more with one eye than most of us see with two. For me, the day poet Robert Creeley died was a profoundly personal day of mourning. His work, and that of Emily Dickinson (also in my Saints Hall of Fame), were and remain the two greatest influences on my own writing. For some time, I did pursue a career as a writer and, if the call to ministry had not become so overwhelming, it would have remained my career. Creeley was the first writer-in-residence for the new Creative Writing graduate program I entered some years ago at Temple University. He was the reason I applied. I had the opportunity to sit in single workshops with him, built around his arrival for Readings at the undergraduate level, but the opportunity to spend a whole semester was enough to restrict my two children and I to a Campbell's soup diet for much of that time and take student loans that took years to repay. The blessing of children who supported me in my educational pursuits has been one of God's richest blessings in my life.That semester was one of the most prolific of my three years in that Master's program. I submitted very little during the course of the semester and felt enormous anxiety when the time approached for my individual appointment during which he would evaluate my entire portfolio. I was so in awe of him I'm afraid I had behaved, much of the semester, like a star-struck adolescent. When I look back on this now, I realize that he must have thought I was more than silly; he must have thought I had no ability. I knocked on the office door, went in and sat down. He looked up and said, "You know, you're good. You have talent. You need to focus on your writing and keep writing—find your voice, speak…" It was such a relief to know that I would not have to drive over the edge of the Ben Franklin Bridge into the river on my way home! I smiled. He asked me if I had any questions. In response, I said that I had asked them during the semester but that I did have a request.Einstein had the correct idea about memorization. If you can look it up, why memorize it. Yet, I had read Creeley's poem, "The Rain," so many times that much later, when I went to share a line with someone, I found that I could recite the entire poem. The day of my evaluation, I told Creeley that I simply wanted to hear him read that poem in his own voice. He took the request very seriously.Another student asserted herself and kept knocking until he opened the door. She said it was time for her appointment. He told her she would get her time and closed the door. He ran his fingers through his hair, a very reflexive gesture for him, and began to read the poem. He stopped and said, "No, that's not right," and paused a moment, looked out the window, and then began again. It was a sacred moment for me and he seemed to understand that. It wasn't about me, or him, it was about art—the gift of something larger and more full of spirit than we truly can understand.In that poem, if you listen carefully, you will hear the rhythms of rain—not one kind of rain, but many. You hear the yearning of the human spirit--the desire for connection, the gnawing hunger and craving for love, the consummate happiness that comes with physical and spiritual connection with another human being. I believe we fall short if we do not look for God in all things. I believe God is found wherever God chooses to reveal God's self. I believe in God and in the words of the poets, especially those of Robert Creeley.
Thanks to Rina and Stephen; Reformation; Psalm 46:10
2010-10-29 by David von Schlichten
Rina Terry provides sensitive and evocative reflections as the guest blogger this week. Stephen Schuette offers thoughts about a key Reformation theme: the defining power of God's grace. Scroll down to soak up the wisdom.
My sermon will be on Psalm 46:10: "Be still, and know that I am God." This verse calls us to cease our silly fighting and focus on the God who breaks the bow and shatters the spear. In the ELCA, we are busy being nasty to each other over homosexuality. God says, "Be still. Come on. Stop fighting, and focus on my amazing grace, including by being gracious with one another." What if we really did that?
Of course, being still does not mean that we never debate or disagree, but it does mean that we learn to debate and disagree in the holy context of God's grace.
Luther is one of my heroes, but he was not always good about being still and knowing that God is God. Luther could be vicious with his words. While I have drawn endless wisdom from his writings, some of them are embarrassing at best, while others are abominable.
Maybe part of reforming today is working on being still, stopping the fighting, even as we disagree. Bask in God's grace, and be gracious to one another.
My sermon will be something like that.
Striving to be still, I am
Yours in Christ,

Hostem discreetly opened its doors five years ago on Redchurch Street, a fitting backdrop to owner James Brown's intensely personal curation of grittily handworked clothing. Inside, design duo JAMESPLUMB created an interior space that offered a skewed take on the world outside, low lit and forged from reclaimed antique materials. In 2011, Hostem was recognised at the World Architecture Awards, winning the top prize in their retail category. In 2013 work began on an entirely new space in the upper reaches of the Hostem building, a space completely removed from the hustle and bustle of the outside world, which coincided with the launch of Hostem Womenswear.

Our popular Breakfast Blend enhanced with sweet pumpkin flavor, sprinkled with a delicate mixture of spices to create a treat for any season.
2 reviews for Pumpkin Spice
We are from California and faithfull Peet's Coffee fans, but when touring New England last month we stayed at a Bed and Breakfast Inn in CT and had the opportunity to try New England Coffee's Pumpkin Spice at the Inn. We fell in love with this coffee. Once we returned home I ordered 3 packages of this coffee and now have ordered another 6 packages to give our CA friends and family New England coffees – anxious to try the Mocha Mint! Wonderful coffee!!!
This in my opinion is one of the better pumpkin spice flavored coffee's that I have had. I have ordered this from New England Coffee several times in the past, and have been pleased with every bag.

A veteran constable with the Toronto Police Service has been charged with leaving the scene of an accident and impaired driving after hitting a cyclist and fleeing the scene.
A veteran constable with the Toronto Police Service has been charged with leaving the scene of an accident and impaired driving after hitting a cyclist and fleeing the scene.
It'll be interesting to see what officer Thomas Lowe receives for punishment.
Note that the article says impaired driving, not drunk driving. It could be some other impairment other then drunk driving. Though an impairment of any kind is illegal while driving, even if it is from legally prescribed drugs.
i hope this marks the end of his career, at the very least.
He has 32 years of service. It's highly likely he'll retire rather than face Police Services Act charges in addition to the criminal charges he's facing.Originally Posted by timmhaan
yeah, that's what will probably happen.
i used to work with a couple of cops who we hired for security at an old job. i got to know them pretty well, i thought they were nice guys for the most part. anyway, about 5 years after i left the job i saw one of them on the news. turns out he beat some guy senseless while he was already handcuffed. there was a video tape of the event and it was shocking to see.
anyway, long story short - he was at retirement age, so he resigned and i'm not sure what kinda charges he was facing. what a stupid way to end a long career.
I must say I'm favourably impressed that the accident was investigated, seeing as how the cyclists apparently only had minor injuries. It's good to know that these things are being followed up on, rather than the "not serious, not investigated" thinking I have heard from elsewhere.
In Canada, there is presently no law that allows police to test for impairment by drugs other than alcohol. Given that, it's unlikely his impairment was by a drug other than alcohol. The present Government has recently tabled legislation to address this:Originally Posted by N_C
The article notes that he faces two charges of impaired driving and a charge for failing to remain at the scene. This is normally how newspapers report these types of incidents. The actual charges he faces? You'd have to get copies of the court documents (or the newspapers could begin to accurately report what the charges are...). The charges [I]could be[I] for impaired operation of a motor vehicle, impaired operation causing bodily harm, exceeding a breathalyser, or failure to provide a sample. Normally the Crown will 'blanket' the accused with charges. The accused will usually plead guilty to one or two of the charges in exchange for the other charges being dropped or go to trial and contest all the charges. The interesting thing about this case is the accused is also a police constable. He will undoubtedly face charges under the Police Services Act. This is in addition to the criminal charges he faces. If he leaves the employ of the Toronto Police Service, these charges will not be brought forward.

The Food SnoopBy Masha Gutkin
Speak, cheesemonger
AN ARTICLE ON the Common Dreams Web site (www.commondreams.org) recently raised the alarm about Prozac levels in British water. Apparently, that little helper pill is so heavily prescribed that it's leaching into river systems and groundwater. Somehow this turned my thoughts to cheese. Lest this seem like total free association, let me hasten to say that for me, Prozac and cheese are pretty much synonymous. This particular dairy product from youthful, innocent ricotta to worldly Limburger always lifts my spirits.
The American Cheese Society (www.cheesesociety.org) held its 21st annual conference over the summer in Milwaukee, so for edification on its doings (as well as broader musings on that panacean substance, cheese) I turned to Gordon Edgar, cheesemonger for Rainbow Grocery and a local member of the ACS. Unfortunately, this year's cheese conference was missing an illustrious figure, the Cheese Nun, who hitherto has been a fixture at the yearly events, toting a microscope for cheese tourists to get up close and personal with their favorite substance. But more on the Cheese Nun another time.
Bay Guardian: Tell me about the American Cheese Society.
Gordon Edgar: It's an organization of farmers, cheese makers, cheese retailers and distributors, and, I guess, people who just love cheese.... I've been a member for six or seven years. At a time when it looked like the FDA was going to change the laws about the importation of raw-milk cheese, they did a lot of education and lobbying about safety issues concerning raw-milk cheese. They were talking about banning raw-milk cheeses altogether around three years ago. It's still out there, but it seems like it's been killed off.
BG: What cheeses can't be imported?
GE: Any raw-milk cheese that's not aged over 60 days at under 38 degrees Fahrenheit can't legally be imported. There's higher incidence of food-borne pathogens in raw-milk cheese, obviously. Cheese in general is a very safe food product, certainly as compared to meat. The incidence of food-borne illness from cheese is very low in the food business. There's three different types of milk: raw [unpasteurized], thermalized, and pasteurized. Thermalized is basically the process where you heat the milk to a certain nonpasteurization temperature to maintain the integrity of, but not kill, the milk. It leaves the milk retaining a lot of its original flavor. It's almost impossible for me to even know what's happened to a cheese in the process. Certain cheeses I'm always going to know are raw-milk cheeses, and certain ones I'll always know are pasteurized. But there's a big gray area of cheeses that might have been thermalized.
BG: Tell me about the indigenous cultures and rennet panel at last year's cheese conference.
GE: Cheese is basically milk, salt, rennet, and culture. The culture is part of what gives cheese its particular flavor. Cultures are usually lab-created now. For instance, for Swiss cheese, the lab culture will be a copy of what they've been using to create Swiss cheese in the Alps for centuries. But some people also make their own cultures. You do that basically by souring milk. Obviously, a lab-created culture is more uniform, whereas an indigenous culture is more unique, but you might have to adjust your recipe over a year of cheese making as your culture gets older or diluted. You get a whole aging room full of cheese that isn't right, and you're pretty screwed. It's a version of crop failure. At the culture factories now, they make all sorts of culture recipes. They've made a lot of advancements in the technology of making cultures to order.
BG: If you were to advise those starting to familiarize themselves with cheese, what would you suggest?
GE: Number one, taste a lot of cheese see what you do and don't like. Ask questions of your local cheese seller. Also, I'd say The Cheese Primer, by Steve Jenkins, is really easy to read and good for nonprofessionals.
BG: What's the most expensive cheese in the world?
GE: Probably the Italian maggot cheese that doesn't get imported here. You can tell it's still good if the maggots aren't dead. There was actually an article about it in the Chronicle a couple of years ago. The maggot cheese is not even legal in Italy, or so I've heard. We do not sell the maggot cheese at Rainbow. That's some crazy shit. Cheesemongers usually don't like to say the m word.
Tune in next time for more on the Cheese Nun and Gordon Edgar's thoughts on
cheese. In the meantime, I'll be humming "She's always late for everything
/ Except for every meal."

Republic of China: new
challenges to the grand gender
Louise Edwards
School of Arts and Sciences
Australian Catholic University
At the beginning of the 1970s, young women in the People's Republic of China (PRC) were presented with a simple picture of their status in relation to their grandmothers'. 'Before 1949 women were oppressed by Confucianism and lived in misery.After 1949, under the leadership of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP), women have been liberated from the shackles of tradition.' In this grand narrative the CCP had saved Chinese women from centuries of oppression and misery.In the grim Cultural Revolution days of the early 1970s, individuals expounding views that deviated from the official perspective faced persecution and imprisonment.As a result, people were compelled to mouth official slogans ignoring the schism between their daily reality and the propaganda. By the start of the decade-long Cultural Revolution ( 1966), a generation of citizens interpreted the history of Chinese women in a linear fashion with the CCP bestowing the ultimate dream of equal status.Women uniformly spoke about their happy, liberated status to

Tomorrow is a new day. We can't dwell on the past. It doesn't change things as they are today. Tomorrow is always a new beginning to do the right things that matter to us.
Live today like there's no tomorrow, For tomorrow never comes..................Never Regret...............Always MOVE Forward!!
When I blow one meal, I start RIGHT THEN to eat better...don't wait until tomorrow because 'tomorrow never comes'.
Get ready for tomorrow's plan, today. Get a plan for tomorrow's exercise, tomorrow's food, tomorrow's H20; get a strategy; get a daily routine and a weekly routine. Reboot as needed. You may not get all you planned to do done today, but you'll still get more done than if you hadn't planned at all.

How can I reduce PDF file size while scanning a document in Officejet 6500 E709n
I used other Officeject scanner, the PDF file size is smaller than file created by HP6500. The document was < 500K I further reduced ppi setting from 600 to 100 in HP6500 and changed to "black & white" from "color", they did not help.
What else can I do?
Re: How can I reduce PDF file size while scanning a document in Officejet 6500 E709n
