UI event to share stories of sexual-assault survival
CHAMPAIGN — University of Illinois students will share the stories of sexual-assault survivors at a free program tonight for Sexual Assault Awareness month.

Top of the morning, April 7, 2015
On Monday, director Steven Bentz gave me an hourlong tour of the Virginia Theatre, from Roger Ebert's statue on Park Avenue to the late film critic's dressing room beneath the stage.
It was part of a video project that we'll unveil at news-gazette.com on Sunday, ahead of Roger Ebert's Film Festival that runs April 15-19.
Area history, April 5, 2015
In 1915, in Judge Roy C. Freeman's court this morning, William Bailey pleaded guilty to living in adultery with Nettie Cokayne, and was fined $100 and costs and sentenced to 30 days in the county jail.
In 1965, the Urbana City Council Monday night approved hiring an Indianapolis planning consultant to develop a comprehensive plan for the city.
Salute to veterans: Korea veteran to take honor flight
SAVOY — Ed Tichenor has never seen the Korea War or World War II monuments in Washington, D.C., but on Tuesday he leaves on an all-expense paid plane trip to be there in person.
Tichenor, 83, has some trouble getting around because he contracted polio while serving in Korea, but his son Brian will be there to help him and share in the memories.
The Big 10 with Jeff D'Alessio, April 5, 2015
With Cardinals-Cubs opening day tickets sure to fetch top dollar tonight outside Wrigley Field, we asked this week's panel: What's the most you've ever spent on the price of admission?

Letter from Birdland: The old windmill generates noise, lots of memories
Birdland is sunny, and if not warm, then warming up. In town, flowers bloom before they bloom out here, but yesterday I saw my first crocus, one the color of my hens' egg yolks in the bed behind the house. Too bad I did my laundry yesterday, because today is sunny enough to hang out clothes, though it would still be a little cold — wet clothes in the chilly wind means frozen fingers.
Getting Personal: Susan Davis
Getting Personal is a Q&A with a local personality. Here, Paul Wood chats with Susan Davis, 61, of Urbana. She is a University of Illinois professor teaching a course on the folklore of death. Recently she took her students on a field trip to Mount Hope Cemetery to look at changes in the way the living interact with the dead by marking and decorating the graveyard.
Reluctant Townie: The case against the Easter Bunny
Happy Easter, people of East Central Illinois. Did you get the hookup on candy and toys this morning, or did the Easter Bunny do you dirty? It was probably more of a coin toss than you realize.
This year, I humbly ask you to reconsider your position on the Easter Bunny. It is my belief that we have been blinded to the Easter Bunny's faults through years of conditioned thinking.

Thanks Dale! That was quick, and absolutely correct. We sure have the warm climate, and just planted it so that it will get shade and citrus irrigation. When I took it out of the gallon pot, it had runners "running" all around the inside. Tried to straigten them out and spread around near the plant. We'll see. Thanks again. Harold

Canadian transgender bill faces critical vote March 20
OTTAWA, Ontario, March 18, 2013 (LifeSiteNews.com) – A controversial bill that would add "gender identity" and "gender expression" to Canada's Human Rights Act and Criminal Code will face the vote in the House of Commons this Wednesday.
Critics say that if passed, Bill C-279 will effectively abolish society's understanding of male and female.
The preamble to the bill states: "Gender Identity means, in respect of an individual, the individual's deeply felt internal and individual experience of gender, which may or may not correspond with the sex that the individual was assigned at birth."
Campaign Life Coalition has slammed the bill's definition of gender as purely subjective.
"It is an ideological, and non-scientific definition that would abolish society's understanding of male and female, transforming it from an objective, physical reality, to a creation of our minds that can change from one day to the next," the group stated.
Numerous pro-family organizations oppose the controversial bill, dubbing it the "bathroom bill" since it could give biological men a legal alibi to use women's bathrooms, shower rooms, and changing rooms. They worry that such a bill will lead to an increase in sexual assaults. Their worry is not unfounded.
Last November a college in Washington state decided it would not prevent a 45-year-old man who presents himself as a transgender "female" from lounging naked in a women's locker room, in an area frequented by girls as young as six. Teenage girls on a high school swim team were using the facilities last September when they saw "Colleen" Francis exposing male genitalia through the glass window in a sauna.
Despite the left wing push for the bill in the name of "rights and equality," high ranking representatives from the Canadian Human Rights Commission (HRC) told the Canadian Justice Committee in December that the bill "strictly speaking…isn't necessary".
Click "like" if you want to defend true marriage.
HRC representative Ian Fine told the committee that "the commission, the tribunal, and the courts view gender identity and gender expression as protected by the Canadian Human Rights Act [CHRA]."
Conservative MPs have said that the bill is redundant since transgender individuals already enjoy Human Rights protection, because "sex" is already a prohibited ground of discrimination.
Canada Family Action says that Bill C-279 is "much more dangerous than it appears".
The group argues that the bill would give predators of women and girls a "legal defense"; that it would force schools to teach gender curriculum in school that would cause "gender confusion in children"; and that it would jeopardize businesses, organizations, and individuals who could "unknowingly commit Human Rights and/or Criminal Code Violations if they fail to offer 'gender neutral' facilities".
Campaign Life Coalition expects that if the bill passes in the house, then it will sail through the Senate as well.
"Then Canada's laws will actually affirm and promote the dangerous philosophy that a biological male can actually be a woman, if he simply feels that way in his mind. The law will send the message to all in society that one's physical anatomy is irrelevant to whether you are a boy or a girl."
"Politicians, by passing Bill C-279, would unleash unintended consequences that are seriously damaging to freedom of speech, freedom of religion, the personal security of women and even to the individuals who suffer with the psychological problem known as Gender Identity Disorder (GID)."
Canada Family Action is urging concerned Canadians to contact their MPs and tell them to vote against Bill C-279 "before it's too late". The group is also urging people to contact the 16 Conservative MPs who did not vote on the bill last year when it passed its second reading.
"Their absence allowed Bill C-279 to pass 2nd reading with the help of the 15 Conservative MPs who voted to support it," wrote Brian Rushfeldt, CFA president, in a press release.
"Pick up your phone right now and call one of the Conservative MPs who didn't even vote on the Gender/Bathroom Bill and tell them to stand up for the women and girls in their riding by voting NO to Bill C-279."

Please, enough with the cult of pop stars. Our kids need real heroes.
April 29, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Two things happen each time a significant pop culture figure dies: Christians attempt to dredge up some moderately conservative or traditional thing that figure said at some point during his long career, and mainstream media attempts to convince a society thoroughly bored with such things that the person in question was a ground-breaking radical. The two most recent examples are the androgynous David Bowie—a cringe-worthy and possibly blasphemous video of him dropping to his knees during a rock performance and uttering the Lord's Prayer circulated just following his death--and the pop star Prince.
I've had to suppress my gag reflexes many times as I saw my Facebook newsfeed fill up with memes sporting quotes from Prince about his faith and articles announcing that the musician who "embraced gender fluidity before his time," according to Slate and "will always be a gay icon" according to The Atlantic, was against gay marriage. Sure, maybe he was. But only a Christian community so shell-shocked by the rapid spread of the rainbow blitzkrieg and the catastrophic erosion of religious liberty would find this remarkable. After all, Barack Obama and Hillary Clinton said the same thing barely one election cycle ago. As one obituary celebrating Prince's paradigm-smashing sexual performances written by Dodai Stewart put it:
Dig, if you will, a picture: The year is 1980. Many states still have sodomy laws. The radio is playing feel-good ear candy like Captain and Tennille and KC and the Sunshine Band. TV hits include the sunny, toothy blond shows Three's Company and Happy Days. There's no real word for "gender non-conforming." But here's what you see: A man. Clearly a man. Hairy, mostly naked body…a satiny bikini bottom. But those eyes. Rimmed in black, like a fantasy belly dancer. The full, pouty lips of a pin-up girl. Long hair. A tiny, svelte thing. Ethnically ambiguous, radiating lust. What is this? A man. Clearly a man. No. Not just a man. A Prince.
Right. So let's not get too carried away, shall we? I know Christians are desperate to justify their addictions to the pop culture trash that did so much to sweep away Christian values in the first place and I know that latching on to the occasional stray conservative belief that may manifest itself in pop culture figures makes many feel as if perhaps we are not so weird and countercultural, but this bad habit we have of claiming these figures upon their passing is downright damaging.
After all, parents should be teaching their children about real heroes, titans of the faith who changed the world. Heroes of the early church who stood down tyrants, halted gladiatorial combat, and crusaded against injustice in a world where death was all the rage. These men and women were real rebels who stood for real values. If we want to point our children to people they should emulate, we should be handing them books like Seven Men: And the Secret of Their Greatness by the brilliant writer Eric Metaxas rather than the pop albums Purple Rain or Lovesexy by Prince. If parents spend their time glorifying the predecessors of Lady Gaga and Miley Cyrus instead of highlighting heroes like William Wilberforce, they can hardly be surprised when their children choose to emulate the former rather than the latter.
The mainstream media's adulation of these pop stars is equally irritating. The unspoken truth of these obituaries is that the flamboyant antics of Prince and the rest of the so-called rebellious drag queens populating the rock n' roll scene have been mainstream for a long time already. Want to see dozens of bizarre body piercings? Weird hairdos? Purple mohawks? Dudes with nail polish? Strange tattoos? Easy. Just go onto any university campus, or any public high school without a dress code. With headphones wedged firmly in their ear canals, they can pump the cleverly commercialized "counterculture" straight into their skulls 24 hours a day, 7 days a week.
More than that, some of these courageous rebels have actually sued their employers to ensure that they can let their establishment-smashing freak flag fly at work, too. An Edmonton woman with 22 visible body piercings complained that her employer was unfair because apparently she was being discriminated against "based on body modifications." Yeah! The Man must be told, after all. And if he doesn't agree, we will lawyer up. I wonder what the shrieking rebels of the early days would think about the snivelling children of the current grievance culture.
So these days, the media's eulogizing about aging culture warriors who went mainstream a long time ago rings a bit hollow. After all, most rock n' roll stars these days look tame compared to what shows up in the children's section at Pride Week. Freaky is normal now. Normal is radical. Welcome to 2016.
When Christians are posting nostalgic tributes to the rebels who helped inoculate their children against the radical views of Christianity in the first place, you know that the victories of the counterculture are complete and Stockholm syndrome has set in.

Target boycott climbs to over 1 million
April 29, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Over 1 million people have signed a pledge to boycott Target over its new policy allowing men to access women's bathrooms.
The American Family Association's Boycott Target petition gained traction immediately, reaching the one million mark in only nine days.
"Corporate America must stop bullying people who disagree with the radical left agenda to remake society into their progressive image," said AFA President Tim Wildmon. "#BoycottTarget has resonated with Americans. Target's harmful policy poses a danger to women and children; nearly everyone has a mother, wife, daughter or friend who is put in jeopardy by this policy. Predators and voyeurs would take advantage of the policy to prey on those who are vulnerable. And it's clear now that over one million customers agree."
Target defended its policy in a statement saying that it believes everyone "deserves to be protected from discrimination, and treated equally" and earlier this week, a Target spokeswoman defended the policy as "inclusive."
The AFA said that unisex bathrooms are a common-sense alternative to allowing men unfettered access to women's bathrooms.
"Target should keep separate facilities for men and women, but for the trans community and for those who simply like using the bathroom alone, a single occupancy unisex option should be provided," the petition says.
The AFA warned that Target's new policy benefits sexual predators and poses a danger to women and children.
"With Target publicly boasting that men can enter women's bathrooms, where do you think predators are going to go?" the petition asked.
There have been numerous instances of predatory men accessing women's bathrooms and intimate facilities in the wake of "transgender" bathroom policies allowing them to do so.
"We want to make it very clear that AFA does not believe the transgender community poses this danger to the wider public," said Wildmon. "Rather, this misguided and reckless policy provides a possible gateway for predators who are out there."

Amazing new video captures the flash of light the moment life begins
CHICAGO, April 29, 2016 (LifeSiteNews) – Life begins with a spark – literally.
Researchers at Northwestern University have documented the striking event in a new video that accompanies a study published this week.
At the moment of conception, the egg releases massive amounts of zinc, which creates a spark that can be seen with the aid of a microscope.
"It was remarkable," said Teresa Woodruff, a professor of obstetrics and gynecology at Northwestern University's medical school. "To see the zinc radiate out in a burst from each human egg was breathtaking."
The research team had noted the zinc sparks before in mice eggs but had never observed the process in human beings.
"All of biology starts at the time of fertilization," Woodruff said, "yet we know next to nothing about the events that occur in the human."
One of the researchers, Northwestern chemistry professor Thomas O'Halloran, explained the science behind the process in 2014.
"The egg first has to stockpile zinc and then must release some of the zinc to successfully navigate maturation, fertilization and the start of embryogenesis," he said. "On cue, at the time of fertilization, we see the egg release thousands of packages, each dumping a million zinc atoms, and then it's quiet."
"Each egg has four or five of these periodic sparks," O'Halloran said. "It is beautiful to see, orchestrated much like a symphony."
Since the amount of zinc in an egg correlates with successful implantation and birth, the Northwestern researchers are highlighting that their research may be used to assist in vitro fertilization.
But that raises concerns given the grave moral issues with IVF, which involves creating numerous embryos that are either killed or frozen. Moral theologians also emphasize that IVF is an injustice even for the children who are born as a result, as they are created in a lab rather than in the union of man and woman.
The study may have far-reaching consequences the research team did not intend, such as strengthening public belief in the longstanding scientific consensus that life begins at the moment of conception/fertilization.
Many of those who saw the Northwestern video said it testifies to the beauty of life and the shallow lies that buttress the argument of abortion-on-demand.
"I saw this, and I was blown away by it," said Rush Limbaugh on his nationally syndicated radio program Thursday afternoon. "For anybody in the mainstream media to openly admit that life begins at conception" defies arguments that an unborn child is only "tissue mass."
Researchers released a separate video of the zinc spark taking place in a mammalian egg more than a year ago:
The paper, which is entitled "The Zinc Spark is an Inorganic Signature of Human Egg Activation," was published by Scientific Reports on April 26.

The added modes include Mega Life (more health), Mega Shot (double damage), and Gunslinger (allows for players to discover new weapon combinations, a la Alien Soldier). The game's extensive scrolling and high-intensity action made it particularly difficult to port to 3DS, and it was actually passed over previously. The technically minded curious about how it was accomplished can find some answers in a new interview with producer Yosuke Okunari and M2 president Naoki Horii at Sega's blog.

Let's talk about living and dying well, today
Happy Monday to all! In case you missed this, sharing an article from yesterday's Sunday Times (20/8/2015) titled Let's Talk About Living and Dying Well.
To read article, click here
News from LCPC : Dying Patients and their Caregivers Make Different Choices
In Early April 2015, there was an illuminating study which compares the willingness of stage IV cancer patients, and their caregivers; to pay to extend their lives by one year against that of other end-of-life improvements. The research, led by members of the Lien Centre for Palliative Care (LCPC) and collaborators from the National Cancer Centre Singapore, was recently published in the journal, Palliative Medicine.
Patients with advanced cancer or other life limiting illnesses often have to consider how much money they are willing to spend on high cost treatments that result in only moderate improvements in length or quality of life. These decisions are very difficult for patients to make, and in some cases the decision is entirely deferred to a family caregiver.
Past research has shown that in addition to extending life, being free of pain and dying at home are important considerations for people nearing the end of their lives. However, the value that patients place on these considerations or their willingness to pay for either was not previously known.
A team led by Professor Eric Finkelstein and Assistant Professor Chetna Malhotra from the LCPC in Duke-NUS Graduate Medical School (Duke-NUS) administered surveys to 211 patients with stage IV cancer and their informal caregivers to find out more about their end-of-life preferences.

A Palliative Care Filmlet - produced with Team Project Happy Apples
After many months collaborating with the Project Happy Apples team, comprising a group of medical undergraduates from the NUS-Yong Loo Lin School of Medicine, a series of posters and a short filmlet were produced. Launched in 12 October 2013, the posters and filmlet aim to raise awareness in as well as increase usage of palliative care services. Special mention to students from the NTU's Wee Khim Wee School of Communications who helped produce the filmlet.

Voices for Hospices Charity Concert 2013
Strike Force getting the audience to "Change the World"
The Singapore Hospice Council (SHC) recently held its Voices for Hospice Charity Concert on Saturday, 12 October 2013. Graced by Senior Minister of State (Health), Dr Amy Khor, the concert, which is SHC's main fund raising platform saw a very good crowd turn out at the 1200-capacity Singapore Polytechnic Convention Centre. The audience enjoyed themselves thoroughly - not surprising given the excellent and entertaining line up comprising many talented (including) young performers such as Miguel Antonio, Lauren Yeo, students from the School of the Arts, the legendary Rahima Rahim and the energetic percussion group, Strike Force.
In her speech, Dr Khor revealed that the Ministry of Health is keen to expand the palliative care sector. To read her speech in full, click here.
We thank the organising Committee for their collective hard work and until the next concert in 2015!

"She made a tremendous late move," said trainer
Carl Bowman when describing the race to his wife
Diane over the phone immediately after the race. "She really ran her heart out."
"We've really had quite a bit of luck with this whole family," Bowman noted later when speaking to reporters. "Her mother (Lu
Ravi) won the Fair Grounds Oaks here and the Chou Croute
Stakes twice. But this filly has a lot better mental attitude then her
mother. You couldn't ever hit Lu Ravi with the whip. If you did, she'd
just stop."
Corey Lanerie was aboard
Ravi's Song, riding his third winner of the afternoon. The
daughter of Unbridled's Song accomplished the 1 1/16-mile distance in
1:45.72, increased her career earnings to $198,173 with her fifth
victory in 11 lifetime starts and returned mutuels
of $12.20, $6.20 and $4.20.
I called on her at the three-eighths pole, it was like driving a car,"
Lanerie said. "I was driving in and out of traffic and she was
going pretty fast."
Jim Tafel's
Fighter Wing made the
pace with early splits of 24.25 and 48.89, and continued willingly in
the late stages to best Skychai Racing and Twin Creeks Farm et al.'s
Age of Humor by a length for the runner-up spot.
Fighter Wing paid $12 and $6 and Age of Humor returned $5.80 to show.

The pundits may be harping on the allegedly lukewarm response to Windows 8, but Microsoft doesn't sound unhappy. As PC World reports, Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer took to the stage at the BUILD conference today to boast about Windows 8 adoption since the October 26 launch:
"In just the last three days, we have sold 4 million Windows 8 upgrades," Ballmer said Tuesday at the conference in Redmond, Wash. "The level of embrace from enthusiasts is very, very high."
Ballmer noted that Microsoft has also sold "tens of millions" of corporate licenses for Windows 8 as well. Organizations "can upgrade when they want to but have no time pressure to do that anytime soon," he said.
Ballmer also characterized enthusiasm for Windows 8 PCs as "remarkable," and he went on to predict that "hundreds of millions of Windows systems [will be] sold in the next year." (Presumably, each of those systems will have a Windows 8 or Windows RT license.)
To be fair, however, four million licenses in three days might not be that impressive for a Windows OS launch. Back in July, Apple announced that downloads of OS X Mountain Lion had "exceeded three million" within just four days of release, which isn't too far off—but we all know Apple has a much smaller share of the PC market than Microsoft.

Will use again.

This is a nicely flavoured bouillon, not too salty like so many are.
Love it

pleasant taste
Posted by Fidelis on Sep 18, 2011
Does not contain harmful additives. Unconcentrated pleasant taste. Need to be refrigerated, or cube turns into a mess.

A lot of vegetable bouillons tend to be too bland where I sometimes find myself salting a cup up with even more sodium added! This bouillon is amazing and perfectly salted with nutritious sea salt!
