BERLIN — At a party 24 years in the making, hundreds of thousands of Germans showed their admiration and adoration for their World Cup winners at a victory parade to the Brandenburg Gate on Tuesday.

The players, in matching black T-shirts bearing "1," lapped up the love by playing up to the estimated 400,000 people packing the "fan mile" in front of the Berlin landmark.

Fans began arriving overnight to secure good spots to welcome home coach Joachim Loew's team and the trophy. Germany's fourth World Cup, the first since 1990, crowned years of work by Loew to modernize the team, and followed near misses at recent tournaments.
"We're all world champions!" Loew told the crowd.
"Of course, it was a long way to the title, and an incredibly tough one in the end. But we're incredibly happy to be here with the fans now."
Mario Goetze, the scorer in the 1-0 win over Argentina in the final on Sunday, was greeted with deafening cheers by the sea of fans waving black, red and gold Germany flags.
Midfielder Toni Kroos led the crowd in a chant of "Miro Klose" — a tribute to veteran striker Miroslav Klose, whose two goals took his World Cup tally to 16 and made him the tournament's all-time leading scorer.
When the players emerged on stage to take their accolades, the fans welcomed each of them with a chant of "football god" — giving Bastian Schweinsteiger, Thomas Mueller, Goetze and Klose the loudest cheers.
"We're just mega-proud of this achievement, after standing here in 2006 and 2008 as third and then as second — and now we've finally done it after this long journey, with this sensational team," defender Per Mertesacker said.
There were problems with the sound, meaning most of the players' words were lost to the crowd. The supporters didn't mind, though, and cheered even louder as defender Jerome Boateng, back in his hometown, shouted: "I can't hear you!"
The team plane landed at Tegel Airport in midmorning after flying low over the "fan mile" — which by then had been packed for hours.
Captain Philipp Lahm led the team off the aircraft holding the trophy aloft, to a chorus of "Football's Coming Home" from fans on the airport's viewing terrace.
He was followed by Schweinsteiger, draped in a German flag and sporting a bandage over a cut under his right eye, the result of a tackle in the final.
From the airport, the team set off on a two-hour trip to downtown Berlin in a bus painted with the years of Germany's World Cup victories: The previous occasions were in 1954, 1974 and 1990.
The team changed shirts and climbed aboard an open-top truck for the last part of the trip to the Brandenburg Gate, crawling through the crowds at snail's pace.
"It's indescribable," fan Till Uhlig from Hannover said of the crowds.
People travelled to the celebration from all over the country: "They've all taken their holidays to come here. It's absolutely crazy," he said. "We were behind the stage where the bus pulled up. Just incredible.
Berlin resident Katrin Fels, who brought her daughter, said: "We knew it would happen. It was clear from the start of the year that we had the best team. It's perfect, perfect for all generations."

Adama's Group
Our star borrower, Saye, the one standing on the right raising her hand in the photo, is 64 years old. She is married and has ten children, four of whom are daughters (two of them are already married). With her loan she will buy peanuts to process them into oil and "rakal" [animal fodder]. She will buy peanuts at 500 West African francs per kg [2.2 lbs] in Ndangalma, a village hosting a weekly market, or in Bambey Séreres. She owns equipment for processing peanuts and obtains 80 liters [21 gal] of oil and 45 kg [99 lbs] of "rakal" from 200 kg [440 lbs] of peanuts. She resells oil for 1,000 francs per liter and rakal for 350 francs per kg. The revenues from her business will allow her to grow her savings, pay off her interest and improve the life conditions of her family by buying clothing for her children and grandchildren, as well as by improving her family's nutrition.
Debout à droite de la photo, et levant la main, la vedette Saye est âgée de 64 ans. Elle est mariée et mère 10 enfants dont 04 filles( avec 02 qui sont mariées).
Avec son pr^t reçu, elle achète des graines d'arachides pour transformer en huile et rakal. Ainsi elle achète le kg à 500 frs à Ndangalma village abritant un marché hebdomadaire ou à Bambey Séreres. Elle dispose de machine pour la transformation et obtient avec les 200 kgs 80 litres d'huile et 45 kgs de rakal. Elle revend le litre à 1 000frs et le kg de rakal à 350 frs.
Les bénéfices générés par l'activité lui permettent de renforcer ses épargnes, payer ses intérêts et améliorer les conditions de vie de sa famille par l'achat d'habits pour ses enfants et petits fils ainsi que l'amélioration de la qualité de la nourriture.

County commissioners order budgets slashed
Published: Thursday, October 16, 2008 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Wednesday, October 15, 2008 at 10:12 p.m.
The Henderson County Board of Commissioners imposed a hiring freeze Wednesday and ordered staff to cut $1.5 million out of the current budget.
These are very, very unusual times, Chairman Bill Moyer said.
Over the last month, the economy and stock market have gone into a tailspin. Major financial institutions have failed, and the country has struggled with record-high gas prices. The commissioners are worried that all the uncertainty will decrease consumer spending and reduce sales tax revenue.
The hiring freeze means about half a dozen open positions will not be filled in the near future. As for the cuts, a decline in sales tax revenue means departments must buckle down.
Budget writers estimated the county would receive $20 million in sales tax revenue for the current year. If the county receives 2.5 percent less in sales tax revenue than predicted, it would represent a $497,000 loss in projected revenue.
This is the most significant issue we are going to be facing the next few months, Moyer said.
County Manager Steve Wyatt directed department heads to revise their budgets to include a 5 percent reduction in expenses. He said the proposed cuts were deep in some areas and would result in a reduction in county services.
Obviously you (board members) are going to have to be involved if citizen services are cut, because your phone is going to ring, Wyatt said.
The board decided department heads should instead reduce their budgets by about 2.5 percent, or around $1.5 million. Much of the countys $117 million budget provides for debt payments and mandated services such as police and Social Services, but the county has $57 million of unrestricted expenses like parks and recreation.
The county had already projected less revenue would be available for the current fiscal year and had budgeted with that in mind, but we need a bigger cushion for what lies ahead, Moyer said.
Commissioner Mark Williams said the county must cut expenses in tough times, just like businesses and families. He said the county was not talking about layoffs at this point, but some businesses in the community have already had cuts.
Frankly, I think we need to tighten our belt, Williams said.
Commissioner Larry Young said the county faces some tough choices and will have to work hard to reach the necessary cuts.
Even more cuts could be required, Young said. Another place we could look is the fire departments. They are part of the county budget.
Wyatt said he would present the board with a plan for the proposed cuts at the boards next meeting.
Marketing plan
Moyer said the county and other local governments must encourage people to shop in Henderson County. He suggested the county and municipalities team up and start a Dine/Shop Henderson County campaign. The commissioners approved putting $15,000 into the program, with the hope that the city of Hendersonville would match the amount and the other municipalities would participate.
I think a lot of the merchants are going to be on the line, Moyer said. If we dont have a good holiday season, they might not survive.
Moyer said the Henderson County Chamber of Commerce has already pledged to get involved in the marketing campaign. He said he has spoken with local media, and some were willing to discount advertising prices.
Williams said he supported the program, but thought it could go farther than Henderson County. He said people travel from Asheville and South Carolina to Hendersonville, and he thought the campaign should encourage people in those areas to shop in Henderson County.
Moyer agreed. He said the campaign has to increase business in Henderson County, but he said there might not be enough money available.
We need to get our citizens to shop locally, Moyer said.

All alone at last
Years roll by so fast
Twisted and insane
The house you built
No longer the same
Once you're there
Once you're there
You can't come back
Nothing lives
Nothing grows
Inside the dead meadow
Months keep rolling by
Live another day, then you die
ghosts inside your head
we choose our paths
when all is done and said
Once you're there
Once you're there
You can't come back
Nothing lives
Nothing grows
Inside the dead meadow

The latter confirmed at the end of the Serie A season that he would be leaving the outfit and the Azzurri supremo admits he's been looking for a new Coach for some time.
"I offered Mazzarri a two-year deal, but I immediately started evaluating my options," De Laurentiis stated on Wednesday.
"I've been looking into this for months because I knew that Mazzarri would leave.
"I have spoken to Rafael Benitez [Chelsea], Manuel Pellegrini [Malaga], Roberto Di Matteo, Jurgen Klopp [Borussia Dortmund] who told me he was unavailable until 2016, Laurent Blanc and Didier Deschamps [France].
"I also spoke to all of the available Italians, I even thought of Diego Lopez but I didn't want to be rude to [Cagliari President] Massimo Cellino…
"I've contacted a lot of Coaches because I wanted to understand the feeling between ourselves. Anyway, the Coach only makes 15 per cent of the difference."
De Laurentiis last night claimed that the new tactician's name begins with the letter M, today he spoke of the characteristics needed.
"The new Coach has to love Neapolitan-ness, he has to start speaking in Napolitano," the movie mogul continued.
"I'm going to London tomorrow and I'll return to Italy on June 16, but it won't take long to announce the new Coach."

This aromatic foaming bath is the greatest thing I've ever tried to relieve my back pain (a severe scoliosis induces pressure on my lower back at times) and to energize me when I feel overtired. It's lovely herbal smell is fresh and very different, something like a walk in a pine forest after the rain while crossing citrus and lavender fields...
I find a little goes a long way with this, and I like that it has comfrey as well as arnica in it to soothe muscles and joints. I have used this for years now, as I love the scent of it as well as the ingredients list, and I think the litre bottle is excellent value. It froths really well for a non-nasty, veg oil-based foamer. I also find it mixes well with other scents, which helps mix things up a bit with such a large bottle! Lovely product.
I have paid family members, driven to neighbouring towns and my Xmas and birthday presents all include it...such is my need to have some of this available at all times in my bathroom! I have a condition where my neck muscles sometimes go into spasm, usually overnight but sometimes due to hormone fluctuations and though I take medication, this product brings REAL relief. It smells great and you feel totally relaxed when you reluctantly get out of the bath! It aids restful sleep and is also ideal after my ballet class, long walks, or my job with 25 pre-schoolers and a Mum to my own 2 children!!!

"Best Vacation for Couples"
We stayed at La Colina de Carolina in Montezuma for our 5 year anniversary. This was by far the best vacation we have had as a couple. The house has everything you need and the views and surroundings are just breathtaking. The house is situated just up the hill from the town so it is easy access to everything. We were able to relax and just take in the environment. The food in town was wonderful. I highly recommend Ylang Ylang Beach Resort for their valentine dinner if you should go for a romantic Valentine vacation. Also, the book that previous guess leave give you such good information on what to do in town and the good places to eat. We will be going back. I highly recommend.

"Felt like home, great view, wonderful deck."
We had a wonderful time at La Colina de Carolina in Montezuma. We've stayed at several rental vacation places and found La Colina to be the best for us. It was more like home, rather than cold and impersonal like some places. It's built on a hill with an overhang roof, so it's cool, there was no need for air con. There was a powerful floor fan when we needed it for a particularly hot day. Some places say "well equipped" kitchen, but this one really was! Very homey and comfortable, perfect for a couple. Can't see any neighbours, just nature and a wonderful view. Montezuma is still a small quiet town with unspoiled beaches. We are a past-mid-century couple and managed to walk back up the hill from the beach every day, we just waited for late afternoon when the sun was off the hill. It wasn't that bad, and kept us in shape. We'd definitely go back to La Colina and recommend to our friends.

"Amazing week at la Colina de Carolina"
Very peaceful and cozy, fantastic views. Gorgeous sunrise and peaceful evenings. Spent the week living outside on the huge wrap around deck lounging in the hammock. We saw so much wildlife around the property. Birds, parrots, monkeys... The landscaping is beautiful. The house is very well equipped and looked after. Bladimir the caretaker does a good job and is always available and so professional. We even barbecued a freshly caught mahi mahi on a little charcoal Bbq. Beautiful peaceful town of Montezuma nearby. (A rental car is a huge bonus going up and down the big hill). Alex from ecotours was very helpful setting us up with Captain Willy for deep-sea fishing and Tortuga Island snorkeling tours. Ginette and Carole were also only a phone call away for any info and so quick to get back to us!! Home away from home! We will be back!!

"Lovely vacation"
When we think back on our vacation... the first thing we tell people is how stunning the veiw was from the cabin...
the ocean breeze cooling the veranda off to the perfect tempeture...we spend most our time on that deck...and we loved driving to cobano to get groceries and cooking with the fresh freerange food
The cabin was a perfect spot from montazuma, a boho spot to mingle with interesting people. It was a romantic getaway and we hope to come back for our future vacations..

"Everything we expected to find as advertised on Trip advisor."
Having vacationed/traveled to Costa Rica for several years we were looking for a place on the Pacific side that would fit our needs this time around. La Colina de Carolina was that perfect place! My wife is in need of a walker for a few months due to a pelvic fracture that is healed but still like the added security it offers at this time, but we needed to "get away" from the winter snow. That is one of the reasons we chose this Casa. It is all one level, no stairs and with a terrific wrap around deck, not to mention the amazing ocean view. She got plenty of walking done without the walker. The place is very homey and warm feeling with the wood/cabin architecture. A well appointed kitchen was a great help for we cooked in a lot. We had friends visit from Jaco and the futon was perfect for them for an overnighter. The bathrooms 11/2 were good and the walkin shower with grab bar was nice for entrance & exit, plenty of hot water also. Spent a lot of time on the deck, it is comfortable, but the constant sea view is were it's at, plenty of birds, Parrots, parakeets, orioles and Howler "Congo" Monkeys. The monkeys of course stole the show, What fun, almost every morning and evening, right around the deck and down by the driveway we were treated to their howls and growls, babies too. A word on the landscaping, It is coming along fine , lot of color and blooms, also a fragrant Ginger tree. Arrived w/a full moon left w/crescent moon. Walk to town, Montezuma is downhill ..Walk up is hard, suggest the bus or taxi back. Location is excellent, walk the beaches both directions to many waterfalls & fresh water rivers. Trips to Cabuya, Cabo Blanco NP, Malpais, Santa Teresa are easy w/taxi or car.Check out the Marmalade place on the way to the island cemetery, which is a good excursion @ low tide. Many nice beach side restaurants in town for dinner and after full days of activity it was great to get back to the deck for rest and reflection. We hated to leave as usual. Pura Vida!

"Our stay at La Colina de Carolina"
A few friends and I went down to Montezuma for Spring Break, and it was beautiful. We stayed at La Colina de Carolina, and it was perfect in everyway. The house had everything we needed to cook and relax. The only downfall, was the water emergency, that we were warned of ahead of time. The house was well kept! The view of the stars outside of the house was breathtaking. Carol was very helpful in all aspects, with transportation and anything else we needed.

"Excellent cabin overlooking Montezuma!"
La Colina de Carolina was the perfect place for our vacation to Montezuma. It was the perfect size for 2 of us and could comfortably sleep 4.
Mariel and Will were great in making sure we were checked in and had everything we needed, and Carolina was more than accommodating throughout the booking process and is easy to be in touch with for any comments and/or concerns.
The view is beautiful, the cabin is in excellent condition and is perfect for being very close to montezuma without being right in town. Its a nice and quiet escape.
We would stay again at La Colina and look forward to going back...

"Exactly what we needed for a relaxing but adrenaline filled time"
We loved La Colina de Carolina! I traveled with 3 other twenty-somethings for a much needed vacation after a particularly difficult grad school semester and the Colina was the perfect place for us. It was quiet and there was lots of neat wildlife for when we wanted some down time but it was very close to Montezuma for when we wanted to schedule a tour. I would highly recommend doing the Horseback ride to El Chorro waterfall along the beach. Well worth the $30 we spent. Carolina honestly thought of everything we could possibly need. Amazing time and I can guarantee that I will be back.
The only downside to La Colina is the hill between you and Montezuma. If you have a car it is not an issue but it is difficult and dangerous to walk. It was not difficult to find a cab to get you back up the hill but we were rarely able to find a ride (as we were 4 people) down the hill. Overall I would consider renting a car to get you to Montezuma...it will make the whole trip more comfortable.

"Perfect place to sit back and relax above Montezuma, Costa Rica"
My girlfriend and I were scheduled to spend the first two weeks in January 2010 at La Colina de Carolina, but we ended up staying a month. Having traveled around Central Amercia the month before our visit, we stayed in numerous hotels and ate all meals at restaurants. So the emenities at La Colina de Carolina proved the perfect fit for what we were looking for. The owner of the house stocks it with everything you could need for a wonderful experience. We made fresh fruit smoothies each morning, cooked great meals each day, and watched movies in suround sound at night. During the day, we'd spend most of our time sitting outside on the huge wrap-around porch where the hammocks were wonderful, and the breezes cool. Sleep was comfortable and the bed soft. The ability to drink the tap water was an added bonus which was a rarity anywhere else in Central America. Having researched many houses in the area, I have to say that La Colina de Carolina was by far the best value we found and will definitely recommend it to friends.

You know, it's bad enough that my birthday falls the day after Sept. 11; talk about a buzzkiller.
Now there's this:
Yisrayl Hawkins, well known Bible scholar and author, reports that the Bible predicts the exact date and the location that nuclear war will begin. Hawkins states that the current crisis in the Middle East will go nuclear on September 12, 2006 in the area around the Euphrates River. Calling upon his 50 years of biblical research, Hawkins correlates numerous Bible prophecies with world events to support his claim.
According to Yisrayl Hawkins, the countdown to nuclear war began with the signing of the Oslo accords on the White House lawn on September 13, 1993. He says that the book of Daniel shows that although this is a seven-year agreement, it would take fourteen years to be fully carried out, ending on October 13, 2007. He then cites prophecies in the book of Revelation showing that nuclear war would begin a year, a month and a day prior to the end of the Oslo agreement.
Maybe I'll hold off on painting the house this year.

Farm Loans:
Information on the Status of USDA's Portfolio
T-RCED-97-78: Published: Feb 21, 1997. Publicly Released: Feb 21, 1997.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-9894
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
Pursuant to a congressional request, GAO discussed the Farm Service Agency's (FSA) farm loan programs, focusing on: (1) GAO's January 1997 report which updated prior reports on the financial condition of FSA's farm loan portfolio; and (2) changes to the farm loan programs that were mandated by the Federal Agriculture Improvement and Reform (FAIR) Act of 1996.
GAO noted that: (1) its January report shows that a significant portion of FSA's direct farm loan portfolio continues to be at risk because it is held by delinquent borrowers; (2) as might be expected, a much smaller percentage of FSA's guaranteed loan portfolio is held by delinquent borrowers; (3) as of September 30, 1996, $3.6 billion, or about 34 percent of the total outstanding principal on direct loans ($10.5 billion), was held by delinquent borrowers; (4) this level of delinquency is an improvement over the $4.6 billion, or about 41 percent of the total outstanding principal ($11.4 billion), that was held by delinquent borrowers at the end of fiscal year (FY) 1995; (5) during FY 1996, FSA lost $1.1 billion of principal and interest by reducing or forgiving the debt of delinquent direct loan borrowers; (6) as of September 30, 1996, about $280 million, or about 4.4 percent of the total outstanding principal on guaranteed loans ($6.4 billion), was held by delinquent borrowers; (7) in comparison, at the end of FY 1995, delinquent borrowers held about $218 million , or 3.7 percent of the total outstanding principal ($5.9 billion); (8) much of the increase in guaranteed loan delinquencies is concentrated in a few states; (9) the FAIR Act made significant changes to FSA's lending programs; (10) these changes were aimed at strengthening the financial condition of the farm loan portfolio and improving the operation of the programs; (11) they include modifying or eliminating lending policies that added to FSA's risk and clarifying FSA's fundamental lending role and mission; (12) because the Department of Agriculture is in the process of implementing these changes, their impact will not be known for some time; and (13) however, GAO believes that they should go a long way to reducing the risk associated with the farm loan programs and to improving their operations.

Does California need a publicly funded voluntary preschool program? Reiner says yes, and he's backing the Preschool for All Act, which would draw funds by taxing high earners. The director behind Hollywood hits The Princess Bride and When Harry Met Sally, Reiner is no novice in the public policy arena. He led the fight for Prop. 10, securing funds for community health care and early childcare programs. Fellow supporters of the Preschool for All Act include education and law enforcement groups – but some business groups and anti-tax organizations are against it. Fellow Tinseltown veteran Governor Schwarzenegger has yet to weigh in on the initiative, which will appear on the June primary ballot. Hear Reiner discuss why this initiative is critical to the future of California's children.

President Obama plans to select Commerce Secretary Gary Locke as the next U.S. ambassador to China, replacing Jon Huntsman, who is leaving the post next month. The official announcement is expected this week.
President Obama plans to select Commerce Secretary Gary Locke as the next U.S. ambassador to China, replacing Jon Huntsman, who is leaving the post next month. The official announcement is expected this week.
Many who know the former Washington governor called Locke a smart choice for a complex and critically important relationship.
Locke, 61, has established a reputation for forging ties with China in government and business for more than a decade. The son of Chinese immigrants, he was born in Seattle and became the nation's first Chinese-American governor when he was elected in 1996.
"I think he has the right temperament and the right background," said Norm Page, an attorney in Shanghai with Seattle law firm Davis Wright Tremaine who worked closely with Locke when the two co-chaired the firm's China practice about six years ago.

"He was always very willing to state the American view of things in a clear-cut kind of way, but always with this eye toward a future that involved a very constructive relationship," Page said. "He also respects China and is very respected by the top leadership in China. Because of that solid foundation and constructive starting point, I think the lines of communication will be good."
Relations between the United States and China have many areas of friction, including the trade deficit and value of Chinese currency, intellectual property protection, military security issues and North Korea.
Locke has been dealing with many of those issues since he became commerce secretary two years ago. He was the third choice after New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson and Sen. Judd Gregg, R-N.H., withdrew their nominations.
At Davis Wright Tremaine, Locke worked as a high-level power broker between U.S. companies and the Chinese government. He helped arrange a visit by Chinese President Hu Jintao to the United States in 2006, and later sat down for a one-on-one meeting with Premier Wen Jiabao for more than an hour inside the walls of Zhongnanhai, the central government's leadership compound in Beijing.
Huntsman, a Republican former Utah governor and Mormon missionary in China, is stepping down to explore a presidential bid.
Huntsman was criticized by Chinese officials after appearing in a location chosen for a protest in Beijing. He said he was out for a walk.
Nonetheless, Joe Borich, president of the Washington State China Relations Council and a former U.S. consul general in Shanghai, said Huntsman has been an excellent ambassador.
Unlike Huntsman, Locke does not speak Mandarin. His family spoke Taishanese, a dialect of southern China.
But that has not diminished his popularity in China.
"Next to 'Sleepless in Seattle,' he's probably the best-known product Washington state has in China," Borich said.
The nomination, which must be confirmed by the Senate, was praised by fellow Democrats in Locke's home state.
"I can't think of a more qualified person to serve as ambassador to China than Gary Locke," Gov. Chris Gregoire said in a statement. "Our relationship with China is more important than ever, and Gary has the history, experience and leadership to maintain strong and friendly ties with one of our most important trading partners."
Rep. Jim McDermott, D-Seattle, said he was confident Locke "will do an outstanding job in this role."
The lawmaker said the decision is particularly good for Washington state, which exported close to $10 billion in goods to China last year.
"China is our state's single largest trading partner," McDermott said. "Washington-based firms like Boeing, Microsoft, Starbucks and others export to China, and these exports translate to good-paying jobs. As the former governor of Washington, … Gary will work to protect and strengthen this relationship."
Sen. Maria Cantwell, D-Wash., said Locke is "uniquely qualified" for the position. "As a former governor from a state with strong economic ties to China, Locke has had a long understanding of issues in Asia. As commerce secretary, Locke has been in many of the Obama administration's discussions with China on energy, trade, and technology piracy issues.
"This is good news for Washington state," Cantwell said, "because it will further enhance the relations between our state and China. And this is good news for the United States because Locke credentials give him the opportunity for even more frank dialogue between America and China."

"In essentials unity...in non-essentials liberty...in all things charity." I have heard this phrase for the greater part of my religious life. In fact, I am pretty sure I have used the phrase myself. It is a much more helpful position to adopt in this world of multi-religious beliefs.
Depressed, weary, or frightened by stories of USIS and ISIS and other horrors, plus by debates over "religious extremism" and the role of Islam, we focus instead on the not-unimportant figure of Pope Francis, who makes news and inspires reflection.
House Speaker John Boehner has proudly announced that Pope Francis will address a joint session of Congress in September during the Holy Father's visit to the United States. But Boehner, Catholic though he is, should be careful of what he wishes for.
With every fiber of my being, I believe that Christians must act to stop the cycle of violence and take a strong stance against hitting children for any reason. What type of world do we want to live in? What type of God do we believe in?
It seems to me that more and more, children are being singled out for punishment, retribution and abuse probably because they are such easy targets and really pose little or no threat of retaliation.
In the conclave, Pope Francis touched on the early church fathers' sense of the mysterium lunae. The mystery of the moon is that it has no light of its own; it only reflects the light of the sun. He said the church should not mistake itself for the sun. It has instead the mystery of the moon. It must remember that it only shines by reflecting the light of the divine.
The Republicans in the U.S. House are obsessed with denying women the right to control their own bodies. In states like mine, local bishops are urging state lawmakers to follow suit and ban abortion, in defiance of the U.S. Supreme Court's 42 year-old Roe v. Wade decision.
Our love is not bad. Our love is not destroying the world. The most significant threat to the family is failure to recognize all families. If the Pope truly wants to reach out to the marginalized, he should truly open his arms to everyone.
Surprising even myself, I will be reading the encyclical on ecology the Vatican will be releasing in June or July. However, one question does loom, call it the "cow" in the room if you will.
While all this may make him seem like a revolutionary trailblazer, sources close to Pope Francis claim the troublemaker is actually just seeing what it takes to get a Pope fired.
The Best Idea for 2014 was requiring police to wear body cameras. This idea was so good it actually cut across the lines of the protestors and the supporters of police. Many on both sides of that divide support the idea, for what boils down to the same reason: the camera doesn't lie.
As Francis has repeated on several occasions, "the Pope emeritus is not a statue in a museum. It is an institution," which "participates in the life of the Church." This new "institution" is a consequence of Benedict's historical resignation on February 11, 2013. It has "opened the door," according to Jorge Bergoglio. Meaning, he could very well do the same.
Loath as we are to admit it, there was no single Biggest Winner Of 2014, because the award must be handed, collectively, to the Republican Party. A case could be made for Mitch McConnell, since he will win the biggest prize of any Republican next year: control of the United States Senate.
We have this conundrum of who has a soul and who goes to heaven because the basic premise on the question is rather absurd. The concept of a soul is fatally flawed, just as is the idea of dualism.
Six years ago Cardinal Tarcisio Bertone came through the front door to Cuba. This December, however, he has returned on a private visit which is evidence of the discrete recognition of failure.
So it's "malaise" time. We older Americans have been there before. On June 30, 1979, then-President Jimmy Carter gave a "Crisis of Confidence" speech which did not use the word "malaise," but most of the reporters and analysts did.

Hi, I have two problems:
First,, how can i put a link inside the CATABLOG SINGLE LAYOUT in order to take customers to a page i have made?
And Second, i need each item page link to take them to different links depending on the category they are on. Which means that i cannot put a permanent link on the SINGLE LAYOUT that takes all of the item pages to the same page when the link is clicked, but i need to take them to different pages depending on the category.
I have been hours trying to figure this out.

Feasting in Viking Age Iceland: Sustaining a Chiefly Political Economy in a Marginal Environment
Zori, Davide, Byock, Jesse, Erlendsson, Egill, Martin, Steve, Wake, Thomas, Edwards, Kevin J., Antiquity
Norse seafarers colonising the North Atlantic during the Viking Age arrived in Iceland in the late ninth century AD and encountered ah unoccupied and virgin landscape. The settlers found a variety of ecosystems, including sheltered fjords, forested lowlands and ample pasturage. At the same time, this sub-arctic island exposed the Norsemen to new environmental constraints and a depleted availability of the luxury goods used to sustain social relationships and the Norse chiefly political economy. This paper addresses the economic and political responses of early Icelanders to the resulting shortfalls, challenges and opportunities by focusing on the archaeological evidence of feasting.
The subsistence strategies and technology of the Viking settlement package were integrally bound to Norse cultural norms. Among the cultural ideals was the Scandinavian understanding of leadership and political power. Early Icelandic chieftains functioned much as 'big-men', competing for prestige and support from local farmers through conspicuous consumption, gift-giving and legal contests (Byock 2001: 65). Political interactions in Iceland centred on the chieftains and their personal relationships with supporters. Feasting was a key element in these interactions. The medieval Icelandic sagas, first written down mostly in the thirteenth century from a rich Viking Age oral tradition, offer ah unparalleled source of anthropological information on early Iceland and make frequent mention of politically motivated feasting. In the following passage, Gudrun, the wife of porkell, advises her chieftain husband to spare no expense in hosting a winter feast that will impress his equals and attract supporters.
He [borkell] hosted a Yule-drinking feast at Helgafell, and a large number of people attended. He showed great magnificence with everyone that winter. Gudrun did not resist this and said that this is what wealth was for--to increase prestige; and the resources should be made available that Guorun needed to make an extravagant display (Laxdela Saga, chapter 74: Sveinsson 1934).
In the sub-arctic Icelandic environment, chieftains must have found it increasingly difficult to acquire the basic goods--particularly the feasting foods of beef and beer-- necessary for political actions and displays of chiefly magnanimity. Our investigations at an early chieftain's farmstead in the Mosfell valley in south-west Iceland (Figures 1 & 2) provided an opportunity to examine the efforts taken to sustain feasting.
Feasting in Viking Age Iceland
At its simplest, a feast is an unusual meal shared on an unusual occasion (Hayden 2001). The feasts in the Viking sagas, however, are on a larger scale and more akin to "a forro of public ritual activity centered around the communal consumption of food and drink" (Dietler 2001: 67). Feasts create relationships of reciprocal obligation between hosts and guests by the same social principle of reciprocity that governs the flow of material gifts from donors to receivers (Mauss 1954; Dieder 1996). Feasts are rife with manifestations of hierarchy--who provides versus who consumes, where people are seated, who is served first, who can procure the most extravagant food and drink--and are therefore ideal arenas to establish and reproduce social relations. Since "feasts are inherently political" and "constitute a fundamental instrument and theater of political relations" (Dietler 2001: 66), evidence of feasting offers an analytical venue for moving beyond identifying elites archaeologically and towards understanding chiefly political action.
Viking Age Icelandic feasts described in the sagas served to create alliances, build chiefly coalitions and provided an arena for competitive displays of generosity and conspicuous consumption (Byock 2001: 67-68). Early Icelanders held feasts at individual farmsteads on a number of occasions during the year, such as the autumn slaughter-time and the Yule winter celebration. …

E L James' best-selling trilogy is now available as an audiobook collection. This three-story compilation includes: Fifty Shades of Grey When literature student Anastasia Steele goes to interview young entrepreneur Christian Grey, she encounters a man who is beautiful, brilliant, and intimidating. The unworldly, innocent Ana is startled to realize she wants this man and, despite his enigmatic reserve, finds she is desperate to get close to him. Unable to resist Ana's quiet beauty, wit, and independent spirit, Grey admits he wants her, too--but on his own terms. Shocked yet thrilled by Grey's singular erotic tastes, Ana hesitates. For all the trappings of success--his multinational businesses, his vast wealth, his loving family--Grey is a man tormented by demons and consumed by the need to control. When the couple embarks on a daring, passionately physical affair, Ana discovers Christian Grey's secrets and explores her own dark desires. Erotic, amusing, and deeply moving, the Fifty Shades Trilogy is a tale that will obsess you, possess you, and stay with you forever. Fifty Shades Darker Daunted by the singular tastes and dark secrets of the beautiful, tormented young entrepreneur Christian Grey, Anastasia Steele has broken off their relationship to start a new career with a Seattle publishing house. But desire for Christian still dominates her every waking thought, and when he proposes a new arrangement, Anastasia cannot resist. They rekindle their searing sensual affair, and Anastasia learns more about the harrowing past of her damaged, driven and demanding Fifty Shades. While Christian wrestles with his inner demons, Anastasia must confront the anger and envy of the women who came before her, and make the most important decision of her life. Fifty Shades Freed When unworldly student Anastasia Steele first encountered the driven and dazzling young entrepreneur Christian Grey it sparked a sensual affair that changed both of their lives irrevocably. Shocked, intrigued, and, ultimately, repelled by Christian's singular erotic tastes, Ana demands a deeper commitment. Determined to keep her, Christian agrees. Now, Ana and Christian have it all--love, passion, intimacy, wealth, and a world of possibilities for their future. But Ana knows that loving her Fifty Shades will not be easy, and that being together will pose challenges that neither of them would anticipate. Ana must somehow learn to share Christian's opulent lifestyle without sacrificing her own identity. And Christian must overcome his compulsion to control as he wrestles with the demons of a tormented past.

Ben Stein's Diary
Beverly Hills
Here I am watching the "peace" demonstrators all around the world, and I am once again struck by one of the main observations of my life. I call it "political realism." Here is how it goes. It says that the political attitudes and behavior of most people are based on their personalities, childhoods, fears, angers, lacks of confidence, and feelings of strength. What comes out of their mouths is couched in terms of public policies such as war, peace, capitalism, socialism, dictatorship, gun control, gun ownership, right to life, pro-death, but it is really all about the working out of personality issues.
I came to this idea in what I think you might find an interesting way. Back at Yale Law School (class of 1970, "Bulldog, Bulldog, Bow Wow Wow"), I was privileged to study a tiny bit of what was called "legal realism." This was and is the most important analytical tool in the history of jurisprudence, in my humble opinion. The theory of legal realism, developed by such geniuses as Lasswell, McDougal, and Llewellyn, the first two of whom were at Yale, said that judges made up their minds about cases based on their own personal views and prejudices and then clothed their decisions with "precedents" and "statutes" to make it look as if they were impartially reading some "brooding omnipresence in the sky" called law. That is, the judges made up their minds about a case because they liked the plaintiff's legs or went to the same country club as the defendant or had a similar thing happen to them once in college, and then they made up a lot of interesting fake reasons for why they reached their decisions.
This analysis continued that this had to be true because in any important legal case at the appellate level, there will be ample precedent on both sides of the issue, and judges can always find some reason to apply some bits of it to clothe the nakedness of their own prejudices.
Legal realism was further refined by the late, great Alex Bickel and the still living and still great Robert Bork to say that if judges could find even the faintest shred or shadow of a precedent to "legitimize" their own prejudices, they would do so and act as if they were reaching a conclusion any sane and learned judge would reach. The great examples of this are the abortion decisions in which the Court found a right of privacy that covered a right to murder a fetus and claimed that there were "penumbras" and "emanations" from the Fourth Amendment and the Fourteenth Amendment, when really there was nothing to legalize abortion.
In my own extensive experience in securities law, I also find this to be true. Judges with a feeling of kinship with the brokers find for the brokers, and judges with a feeling of kinship with the consumers find for the consumers and stockowners.
My close friend in law school, the flamboyant and spellbinding Duncan Kennedy, later revised legal realism and created his own field which he calls "critical legal studies." It holds that judges decide cases based on their own class interests, and these tend almost always to be on the side of the bosses. Duncan has sadly vanished from my life, but some years ago I read a horrifyingly long essay by him attacking the "law and economics" approach to jurisprudence, which approach basically says decisions should be based on what is sound economics. Duncan said it was a fascinating aspect of "law and economics" that it always came down on the side of the bosses.
Duncan's politics and mine could not be further apart at this point, but his demolition of "law and economics" was provocative, to say the least.
Anyway, back to the icky peace demonstrators and what I call political realism. Political realism says that people in a free society make up their minds about an issue based on whether or not they hate their fathers, whether or not they are sexually oriented toward the same sex, whether or not they feel sexually confident, whether or not they want to win the love of their fathers, and then they make up a rationale based on public policy to justify whatever it is they are doing. …

Kids' Greek Mythology Books | Have Your Say
By Bianca Schulze, The Children's Book Review
Published: May 22, 2013
What is your favorite book that fits into the genre of Greek Mythology? This is the question we posed to TCBR's readers and here is what they had to say:
D'aulaire's Book of Greek Myths
Quirky illustrations that are evocative; clear graceful re-tellings of the myths. Very accessible without being simplistic. Retains the magic of the myths.

Percy Jackson and the Lightning Thief
By Rick Riodan
Riveting action that captures the Harry Potter crowd, but explains dyslexia which could also capture the Joey Pigza crowd as well. Well written, but could inspire kids to go check out the classic tales that the series is based on. I have, so far, replaced 3 or 4 copies in our library. They have ALL walked. In my library, that is a sign of a popular book that the kids want to read.

Oh My Gods!: Mythlopedia Series
My son became a huge fan of Greek mythology because of Percy Jackson, which turned our family on to looking for more great books on the topic. The Mythlopedia series, which begins with Oh My Gods!, is very fun for kids (and adults) to read while still being informative.
