Life is Sweet! Tweet! Tweet!
It seems like a lot of tweeting going on in the cyber world. But are you feeling more, or less, connected? Perhaps in our attempt to 'not miss anything', we are missing what's really important – the simple things in life that can give us the greatest joy.
Last week my friend and I went for a walk through Selby Gardens – our favorite place to connect with nature, each other, and to just BE in the present moment.
As we entered the greenhouse – a magical world of orchids, bromeliads and waterfalls – we were transported. Sitting on the wood slat benches, facing each other, we did slow breathing, filling our lungs with an abundance of luscious, life-supporting air. (Although I've never been to an oxygen bar, I can't imagine it being any better than this). Meditating for a few minutes created a natural high – a feeling of ONENESS with God, the world, each other…so wonderful that we didn't want to leave.
The rest of our walk, alongside the bamboo sentinels overlooking the bay, brought about a peace and calm that only nature can provide. Though only a short distance from where we lived, it felt like we were on a retreat.
Suddenly we heard a rather loud, insistent "TWEET, TWEET, TWEET!"…Read More
Gifts of Love
Let your hearts be light. The Christmas spirit is alive and well!
I had been looking for evidence that giving and goodness are prevalent in a world seemingly dominated by negative news reports. While acts of love and kindness may be easier to spot during the holiday season these glimmers of love and light brighten our existence whenever and wherever we find them.
Here is just one example I found:
I noticed in the Herald Tribune, our local Sarasota newspaper, an article requesting donations of "Shoe Boxes for Seniors." It made me smile as I created a "lavender themed box" for a female senior filled with soap, lotion, note pads, socks, a lace fan and a picture frame. What a simple idea to bring joy to the elderly in our community who are often alone or without family members close by.
It reminded me of my own grandparents, now gone, with whom I used to share the spirit of holiday giving. As part of a 'universal family' such as ours, we may not be able to bring joy to our parents or grandparents, due to loss or distance….but we can do something to make other people's loved ones feel special.
When I delivered the box, I was astounded by a gigantic Christmas tree surrounded by hundreds of beautifully wrapped shoe boxes that would soon be delivered to assisted living centers, shelters, and elderly people in the area. For many, this would be their only present for the holiday…Read More
Love or Fear? It's a Choice!
Sometimes in the midst of inexplicable cruelty, the total disregard for life, the senseless killing of innocent people… it's hard to remember that we have a choice. Do we want to live in love or fear?
The shootings in Paris, like so many incomprehensible acts of violence, could easily have shut us down. As we watched the disturbing news from the safety of our homes, it felt as though an impenetrable angst lay over our psyches.
Yet amidst the scenes of dead bodies, empty streets, rapid fire loss of innocence, there is hope. We may have wondered if this is the new reality, what, if anything, can we do to live our lives in a way that will make a positive difference?
Darkness cannot eclipse the light. Acts of kindness, enlightened perspectives, the willingness to help those in need, the decisions to not give up – to love no matter what…are beacons of light in a darkened world
In the news, two young French women relate their unique experiences:…Read More
Where Do They Go?
Do you remember the magician's trick where he puts things into a tall black hat, waves a magic wand, and turns it upside down only to find it empty? Where do all of those scarves and trinkets go?
If you ever figure it out, please let me know because I've found that my black purse has become my "magic hat". Every day I put in grocery lists, coupons, receipts, to do's…and when I reach in to retrieve them, they have magically disappeared. Though I spend a lot of time trying to find them, I rarely ever do, or else they show up mangled or torn – like they've been through the ringer (and maybe they have) – sometime later.
A friend Jessie suggested that they go to that empty space where single socks go. (Have you noticed that you never lose a pair of socks or earrings, it's always just one?)
Or perhaps things go into the BLACK HOLE. If so, where do they end up? Do they ever return? And if not, who's using them? Is someone walking around in a different universe with one black sock and a red one?
The problem is the inordinate amount of stress that losing these things creates. I can spend hours looking for lost items, determined to prove…Read More
Is Love For The Birds?
It was late afternoon as I walked through the deserted garage in my condo complex focused on a handful of mail I had retrieved. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed a slight movement on the ground. Becoming very still I saw a morning dove, fragile, yet fearless in his steadfastness.
Using my best chirping imitation in an attempt to reassure him, I stepped closer. Surprised that he did not move away, I wondered, Was he hurt? But then I remembered that doves are usually in pairs. "Where is your mate?" I asked. Softly, slowly I walked through the garage, carefully inspecting the rafters. It was then that I saw her, a fresh twig poking out of her nest in the eaves, two bright, but calm, eyes peering down at me.
I was grateful for this moment, so tender and sweet, as I witnessed this commitment to love, this unwavering protectiveness.
I remembered a story of two doves flying in a highly trafficked area when one of them got hit. Its partner flew around and around, unwilling to abandon its mate, until a kind man…Read More
Let's Light Up the New Year With Love
What Will It Take?
What will it take for peace and love to prevail
so that we can create a different tale?
from "playing nice in the sandbox"
to open communication and peace talks
it's time to forgive and make reparation
for all the times we've caused separation
How can we live the truth that we are all One?
It is then that our work will have just begun
let's try our best to see the beauty
in all living beings…it's our duty
to accept one and all
and heed the call
let's do our part
and open our heart
To LOVE
In this new year, may we see and act upon the many opportunities
to share our love and light with the world.
Many blessings for a Happy New Year,
Jump Start
Quit practicing what you are going to do, and just do it.
In one bold stroke you can transform today!
– Phillip Markens
A little over three years ago, Trudy Paine, who owned a vintage clothing store in a college town in Massachusetts, mentioned to my mom that she was in the market for vintage dresses. Wanting to clear her attic of the sentimental things stored by her three long-grown children, my mom called to ask me, "Would you be interested in selling your prom dress?"
I was disconcerted. "Seriously? My sexy prom dress, slit up the sides, with hot pants, is now considered VINTAGE?" Apparently so.
A few months later, I got to meet Trudy, the woman who eventually sold this irreplaceable vestige of my fashionable past.
When I mentioned that I was writing a book about people who were touching the lives of others, Trudy said, "I have a great story for you!" Told in her own words, here is what took place one afternoon at Uncle Margaret's Vintage Clothing Store. You'll love how Trudy was able to jump start someone's life!
Wonder how much money I'll make today? I thought, grappling with a crossword puzzle while I awaited customers. It was a very slow day at my store, and the entire street seemed eerily quiet—even the birds weren't making a sound.
I heard a shuffle outside, and looking out the store window, I saw a lanky young man with long, spaghetti-like legs slowly walking toward the front door. His shoulders were stooped, his head was hanging, and he seemed to be staring more at the ground than at his destination.
Hmmmm. This will be interesting.
The young man entered the store and stood in front of the counter. He didn't make eye contact. "Hi. I've been looking for work, and wonder if you're hiring, but I suppose you're not, so I guess I'll leave."
He looked so defeated standing there in his worn-out clothes and downcast demeanor.
Impulsively, I pointed to the men's dressing room and said, "Wait a minute. Go into that room." Then I grabbed a pair of black pants, a 1950s blue suit jacket, and a shirt that all looked like they would fit, and handed them to him. "Try these on just for fun."
"Okay," he said, looking puzzled, but passively responding to my directive. As he shuffled to the room, I heard him mumble, "Sure, why not. I haven't got anything better to do."
A few minutes later, he emerged from the dressing room. I couldn't believe the metamorphosis. "Go look at yourself in the mirror," I ordered.
When he did, it was like watching a dry, droopy flower get some raindrops. … Read More
How Are We Practicing Self-Care?
I say yes when I mean no
and the wrinkle grows.
-Naomi Shihab Nye
Two weeks ago, I met with 25 second graders from my hometown to talk to them about kindness. After discussing the many ways we can be kind to others, I asked them, "How are you kind to yourself? …because if you can't be kind to yourself, how can you be kind to anyone else?" Many came up with ideas of eating well and exercising, but were stumped when I asked, "How do you talk to yourself?"
We might ask ourselves that same question. "What are the conversations we have in our head?" Are we loving or critical, accepting or judgmental when we make mistakes or don't measure up to our own expectations?
Sometimes we use negative self-talk when we're not feeling good about something we've said or done. While it's helpful to have an honest assessment of things, a healthy dose of love and kindness for ourselves will go a long way in ensuring that we learn from our mistakes and make any amends from a loving place.
Positive self-talk is a good place to start but it goes beyond that. How can we take care of ourselves when we've been taught that it's selfish to do so? Self-care is an act of kindness. How can we take care of anyone else if we don't care for ourselves? The airlines understand this and tell passengers, "In case of an emergency, if the oxygen masks drop, put your own mask on first before assisting children or others."
If we're healthy, balanced, and feel good about ourselves, we have more to give to others. But how do we make our needs as important as everyone else's? Sometimes we have to say "no" to others in order to be loving or true to ourselves. If we do things out of love and joy, rather than obligation, we are much happier. And we can then support others to take care of themselves and be happier, too.
When we take the time to do what nourishes us, when we plan our day to include time for ourselves and the things that we love, we feel better and are less stressed. But we need to make it a priority or it doesn't happen. For instance, when was the last time you made a date with yourself … and kept it?
Loving ourselves, living consciously, and listening to our body's messages before illness or injury forces us to pay attention are important aspects of self-care.

Sharing Cookies
It had been a rough week. Sarah's body was exhausted, her nails cracked, her hair frizzed and her head ached. She had, four weeks prior, traveled across the country to be a mom again to her grown daughter and was now returning home to her husband. She could hardly wait.
Sarah got past security. She needed this travel time to switch gears and slow down her heartbeat and was grateful to be alone with an hour to boarding. Ah, a kiosk with snacks, healthy snacks. After choosing a pack of trail mix cookies with no artificial anything, she grabbed a New York Times. She found a small white plastic table within earshot of her gate, sat down and immersed herself in her newspaper.
In her peripheral vision she saw a young man seat himself directly across from her at her tiny table. Handsome and well-groomed, he said nothing, but smiled as his eyes focused on hers. She squirmed inside, Read More
Are Relationships Going to the Dogs?
My goal in life is to be as good a person as
my dog already thinks I am.
Do you long to experience an unconditional love relationship?
Despite our disillusionment over the years, perhaps deep down many of us are still holding out hope for "The One" – the ideal person who will make us feel special, listen to us, comfort us when we feel sad and lonely, take care of us when we're sick, greet us when we come home, be our best friend, and always believe the best about us.
We may have thought we'd found that partner, some of us may have even married him or her. And we thought it would last forever – but forever is a long time and people change. Perhaps we've become disenchanted; desirous, but less hopeful, of finding someone to share our lives with.
Where can we find that unconditional love, Read More
Live Your Passion and You Will Change the World
Don't ask what the world needs.
Ask what makes you come alive and go do it.
Because what the world needs is people who have come alive.
– Howard Thurman
What is it that enlivens you, that you find joy in expressing, and that you would do for free because it's what nourishes you and gives meaning and fulfillment to your life? Most of us feel fortunate when we have such a passion—that quality of aliveness and intensity.
For some people it might be their job, for some a creative endeavor, and for others, it is in giving. People who are passionate about giving respond to the needs of others as to a calling. They are as committed and generous in their expressions of love and kindness as someone else might be about offering their gifts as an artist, writer, or teacher.
One time, I took a drawing class taught by an artist who told us: "I HAVE TO draw! I draw on anything that is available to me—paper bags, the back of a baseball ticket, a receipt … wherever I am." Read More
Kindness Starts With Me
A Model for Engaging Elementary School Children in a Lifestyle of Kindness
Learning compassion, much like learning a language, is easiest and most effective when it starts early. Advancing Compassion Project is helping to launch an innovative program that could serve as a model for elementary schools, helping students to think about kindness in their own lives, and use it to help build a better world.
Kindness Starts With Me is being developed by Linda Commito, author of "Love is the New Currency," and a former elementary school teacher. Its objective couldn't be more timely, as Linda noted: "When so much attention in the news has been focused on the effects of bullying, teaching a kindness lifestyle reinforces and inspires children to be kinder, more loving and accepting." From working with kids, she also realized the importance of involving them directly in the development of the kindness project – and she decided to design and test the program with a group of students at a Title One public school working with underprivileged youth…Read More About This Project…

Ph.D. University of Pennsylvania
B.A. University of Richmond
Since starting to learn German many years ago, my studies have taken me to the University of Richmond for my B.A. in German and English, the University of Pennsylvania for my Ph.D in German Literature, the Freie Universität Berlin for Fulbright research, the Universität zu Köln, the Deutsches Literaturarchiv Marbach, the Schweizerisches Literaturarchiv Bern, and many places in between.
My primary research interest has always been in theatre and performance studies, but my current work focuses on the intersection of theatrical performance with disability, gender, and queer theory. Building on the work I began in my dissertation, which investigated the onstage dynamic between the concepts of prosthesis and Heimat (German for "home"), my current book project widens that focus in order to explore how theatre illuminates the complex and contradictory history of the term Volkskörper ("body of the people") in the 20th century.
In recent years, I have presented on a variety of topics in that area, including Georg Kaiser's Von morgens bis mitternachts, Ernst Toller's Hinkemann, and Friedrich Dürrenmatt's Der Besuch der alten Dame. My interests go beyond the twentieth century, however, and I have also written and spoken on several works that fall considerably earlier, such as Daniel Caspar von Lohenstein's baroque tragedy Epicharis, Charlotte von Stein's Dido, C.M. Wieland's novel Geschichte des Agathon, and Christian Spuck's balletic adaptation of Büchner's Leonce und Lena.
As an educator, I'm always looking for new ways for students to experience the course material, whether through performance or other forms of alternative engagement that unite us as a learning community. At Penn, I received the School of Arts and Sciences Dean's Award for Distinguished Teaching by a Graduate Student, and teaching continues to play a central role in my work as a scholar. I have also organized several conferences and colloquia, and place great value on establishing venues for students to exchange ideas and inspire intellectual creativity in their peers.
If not at my desk or in the classroom, I am most likely to be in the pool, polishing up my synchronized swimming skills, or else attempting in vain to catch up on everything both wonderful and terrible that we call television. I am also the managing director of German-American physical theatre company Kinderdeutsch Projekts, which has performed in New York City, Bangkok, Berlin, Hildesheim, and San Francisco, and plans to adapt Walter Hasenclever's Die Menschen for a future production.

The New York Daily News let loose its succinct analysis of former New York State governor and current candidate for New York City Comptroller Eliot Spitzer's character and its hopes for his future on its front page over the weekend. There was a news article inside the paper that went into far greater detail, but the front page, as captured in a picture by Breitbart, said it all.
"Liar, criminal, sex cheat, fraudster – and he still wants your trust," and then, in huge typeface and all capital letters: "scr*w you!"
For those who have not yet been paying attention, Eliot Spitzer was forced to resign his position as governor of New York in 2008 when it was revealed that, despite a history as an aggressive prosecutor of prostitutes and pimps while he was NY's attorney general, had his own history of frequenting high-end call girls.
After a year or two out of the spotlight, Spitzer went back out in public with a vengeance. He wrote for a widely-read online magazine, and in 2010 he became the cohost of a talk show on CNN. Earlier this year Spitzer announced he was a candidate for the position of New York City's Comptroller.
The position of City Comptroller, not typically considered a high-profile one, is one laden with potential.
The comptroller is really the chief financial officer of the city, and New York's is responsible for 700 employees. As comptroller, Spitzer would be responsible for ensuring the financial health of NYC, advising the mayor and city council about all the city's programs, operations, fiscal policies and financial transactions.
That is a big job, one with plenty of potential for lots of photo ops and high profile "gotchas," the kind Spitzer loved when he was in his heyday as the "Sheriff of Wall Street."
But if the Daily News has anything to say about it, Spitzer will not become "NYC's piggybank sheriff." In addition to the screaming front page headline, there was an article endorsing Spitzer's opponent, Scott Stringer, Manhattan's borough president.
The New York Times also endorsed Stringer, as did the New York Post.
But it is Spitzer who may have the last laugh. Recent polls show him with nearly a 20 point lead over Stringer.
On the other hand, maybe not.
Spitzer's wife, Silda, stood by her husband throughout his public disgrace. However, after Spitzer announced this spring that he was again running for public office, Silda has been a no-show on the campaign trail. There are reports she will seek a divorce from Spitzer as soon as the campaign is over.
Spitzer's campaign did not respond to a request for comment.Lori Lowenthal Marcus
The following is an email sent by NYC mayoral candidate Ceceilia Berkowitz sent last night to her (handful of) supporters, pleading for help in the remaining days left to get on the ballot for an independent run for mayor:
Hi Friends, Colleagues, Neighbors, Friends, and Citizens,
As a leading 2013 Mayoral Candidate in New York City, I wanted to share with each of you the Youtube.com video of a Mayoral Forum I attended at Columbia University's Teachers College in New York City on June 30th.
I wanted to show my commitment to the Arts & Culture, my strong and sophisticated and well-educated political views, and how important it is for New York City and its stakeholders (each one of you) for me to get on the ballot for our November election.
The only requirement to be on the ballot is to obtain 3,750 signatures via a signature drive. Some of you have seen in the news that Elliot Spitzer did a last minute signature drive. This costs anywhere between $20,000 and $500,000 if professionally done.
It can also be done with volunteers. At St. Peter's University today, I met with Former Mayor of Bayonne Joseph Doria, who said he knew my father Dr. Berkowitz, from his business in Bayonne. He advised me to gather over 100 signature gatherers for shifts between now and August 12th, in order to secure our position on the ballot. We also need volunteers who can assist us with recruiting more petitioners, and others who are interested in this management and leadership building activity.
It is truly a privilege to have such a dedicated, talented, and sophisticated list of friends and contacts. I hope some of you can assist us with this, whether you are part of churches, synagogues, clubs, associations, universities, or other organizations in the NYC Metro area and beyond.
Would you be able to help me out with the signature drive, just to get the 3, 750 signatures to get on the ballot? If so, I copied my political strategy firm, Nino at Savi Political Consulting who flew in from Washington, DC to help me with this election.
I have had reoccurring severely sprained ankles from a previous injury at work in late 2010, so I cannot get all the required signatures on foot myself. In addition, I was robbed by my first fundraising firm, Apa Firm and Anastasia Apa, which the NYPD police told me was considered larceny, so I could not raise enough money afterwords.
Due to City Hall scheduling processes at 100 Gold St., I could not yet get an appointment yet from my good friend for almost two years, Mayor Bloomberg, to potentially borrow or receive enough funding for a signature drive. My credit also was stolen at work in 2006 and this identity theft was already proven in court with an affidavit -I hired some credit repair firms in Staten Island, and it will take one year to fix.
So since I have been a victim of theft and robbery, perhaps I could ask you all to assist me with a signature drive? I can perhaps give you all some compensation in pay expenses / prizes.
I think it would be great for NYC to have a younger, up and coming mayor, as they do in other cities and in Jersey City.
I just met at St. Peter's Univ., where I taught MBA Finance this summer Mayor Doria of Bayonne and Dean of Education / former Director of HR, and he suggested to ask community groups to assist.
I also took on and hired (for pay in the future, assuming it is possible), Laurens Hunt, who is a long time member of your club and Now NYC, and who is vested in Hudson County Jersey City government with over 10 years of work experience and a graduate degree.
So we have a good and up and coming team, and NYC may need us this November if we can get on the ballot.
I am asking each of you to help do your part to email me and let me know how you can assist with recruiting signature gatherers. If you are too busy to help, perhaps you can donate $10 online to our political campaign, which will enable us to pay for commuting expenses for our volunteers who may have to work long shifts in the next week.
Also, if any of you is interested in cosigning a loan, and I can negotiate the terms and why it is good for you, please contact me.
Right now, we are most looking for team building activities with people of good leadership skills, interns and volunteers to help with signature gathering, and finance interns and employees who want to fundraise for some pay."Jacob Kornbluh
As the title over the original image below says – sometimes you just need proportions to understand…
The words "proportionality" and "disproportionate" were widely used during the Cast Lead War and in general in actions Israel takes to defend itself. It seems the world understands that we have the right to respond to incoming missiles – we just don't have the right to actually hit our target because, by the grace of God, the Palestinians usually miss theirs.
Of course, ignored in this is that OUR targets are military in nature, not open cities with hundreds of thousands of people.
I saw this graphic on Facebook and thought I'd share it. The area that come under attack each time Gaza decides to launch another missile at Israel can be compared to a similar land area in the US, say New York City. In our case, the area is less densely packed so "only" a bit over one million people are in harm's way. Imagine if a similar area in the US were attacked…

The Columbia/Barnard Kraft Center for Jewish Student Life 606 West 115th Street, NYC December 4 – January 13, 2013 Opening Reception: Wdensday, December 12th: 6-8pm
Joel Silverstein is a comrade-in-arms. We share many ideas about the creation and nature of contemporary Jewish Art, as well as a commitment to the growing Jewish Art community, exemplified by the Jewish Art Salon of which we are both founding members and curators. This exhibition of his recent work at the Kraft Center for Jewish Student Life at Columbia/Barnard gives us the crucial opportunity to examine the complex richness of his artwork.
His ideas about Jewish Art are inherently radical as he expressed in 2006: "It is our assertion that Jewish thought is a precursive factor in the formation of Modernism and postmodernism… [postulating] the relationship of artistic creativity to Jewish thought [and maintaining that] Jewish thought is demonstrated to predate and augment the advent of modern aesthetics."
His belief in "the Jewish Sublime" flies in the face of most Jewish intellectuals denial that Jewish contemporary art exists at all. Nevertheless Silverstein persists in his beliefs; writing, curating and creating works of art that reflect a vibrant synthesis of his Brooklyn Jewish upbringing, Torah narratives and postmodern visual sensibility without succumbing to a postmodern emotional emptiness.
At first glance his biblical work is obsessed with miracles: the miracle of the plagues, the snakes, the Golem coming alive, even the miracle of Superman who flies.
RM: What is it about the miraculous that appeals to you?
JS: In a secular way, I can't stand the limits that contemporary cultures put on us: if the miraculous is not possible and everything is material, i.e. materialistic, then I don't think I can live with that, I can't accept that. So then I need to invent the miraculous, even if it doesn't exist, but I feel it does. I feel it is the kind of thing you have to seek in order to find it. It is necessary in fighting the limits our rationalistic culture imposes.
I believe in God but I'm not a fundamentalist; my belief in something greater than myself and the imagination merge. And that's where I really groove to Jewish texts; the Hebrew Bible, commentaries and more contemporary commentaries… i.e. the point where postmodern discourse, writing, the idea of religion and God, and the idea of the imagination all merge.
I don't need to feel the imagination is merely the imagination. I don't need to categorize it because the miraculous is beyond categorization. That is very important. The fact that I interpret something that happened to me in a vision with the Hebrew Bible, with a memory, a memory of my parents who have died, with something I'm looking for, with my relationship with my family, with all those things are the raw material of my artwork.
What about the "magic of time" that seems to permeate many of your works?
In the study of literary myth there is the simultaneity of time. But also in Torah study, time doesn't exist. So they are more than similar.
You have said that seeing Ceil B. DeMille's "Ten Commandments" as a child was a theophany. A Theophany?
This colored my visual life a lot. In Judaism there were no traditional visions of Moses and at that age that hit me hard. The DeMille Exodus narrative made a big impact on me. Charlton Heston looked like the Michelangelo sculpture. Visualizing the whole back story and the way DeMille went to Egypt to film in Egypt fleshed out the biblical in a way that brought the narrative alive.
The surface of almost all your artwork is distressed, rough, and broken up. Why?
I have a personal love of surface. Its just my personality, an existential dread. To try to make meaning out a chaotic surface. I love early Byzantine and early Italian altarpiece painting…now so troubled after 500 years. But it is also the modern expressionist tradition I am drawn to, i.e. anxiety as a form of modernity. Additionally it expresses the existential experience of living in the now, and trying to come to some kind of idea that is centered on something greater than yourself. It also makes the work feel modern in a modernist way, not postmodern. Part of the problem of the modern world, the postmodern denial of feeling, emotional deadness and materiality is something I want my work to fight against.Richard McBee

What to Watch: Trisha's Favorite Foods, Giada's Kid-Friendly Recipes and a Star Returns to the Competitionby Joseph Erdos in Shows, July 19th, 2013
This weekend, Food Network has a bunch of new episodes that cover cooking for special occasions, for special guests and even for yourself. And if you've been watching Star Salvation, you know that one eliminated Food Network Star will be returning to the competition this Sunday.
First on Saturday morning, Ree is banking a few family-favorite recipes for the freezer to have on hand for later. Then, Trish and her sister Beth are cooking up all of Trisha's favorite foods. On Barefoot Contessa, Ina is back in Brooklyn visiting a few famous eateries for inspiration in her own cooking. On Giada at Home, Giada is cooking kid-friendly recipes for her daughter's dance class.
On Sunday morning, Jamie Deen is celebrating his brother, Bobby's, birthday with a menu of all of Bobby's favorite dishes. Then Bobby Flay is cooking up a Spanish barbecue menu. Come back in the evening for a new episode of Food Court Wars as two teams try to win over the citizens of their town, Wausau, Wis., with a casual diner versus a healthy food spot. Afterward on Food Network Star, the finalists are surprised to find out a former finalist returns to the show. This episode's challenge will have them taping a food show that tests their storytelling skills. And on Restaurant: Impossible, Robert must help revitalize a 26-year-old family restaurant business that's in desperate need of more motivated management from the family.

The event is underway today and will coincide again this year with AFI Fest which will open tomorrow in Hollywood.

Por ello quiere aprovechar la ocasión para sacar ventajas vendiendo sus mercaderías, así las demás integrantes también están organizando actividades similares ofrecer para la venta.
Additional Information
About Fundación ParaguayaFundación Paraguaya is a financially self-sustaining social enterprise that promotes entrepreneurship in urban and rural areas through microfinance, education programs, and more. Its focus on agriculture has helped many farmers boost their crop yields. And a number of other borrowers have taken out loans to start and grow social businesses that have helped deliver eyeglasses, medicines and other helpful services in their local communities.
This is a Group Loan
In a group loan, each member of the group receives an individual loan but is part of a larger group of individuals. The group is there to provide support to the members and to provide a system of peer pressure, but groups may or may not be formally bound by a group guarantee. In cases where there is a group guarantee, members of the group are responsible for paying back the loans of their fellow group members in the case of delinquency or default.
Kiva's Field Partners typically feature one borrower from a group. The loan description, sector, and other attributes for a group loan profile are determined by the featured borrower's loan. The other members of the group are not required to use their loans for the same purpose.

I loved this Triology! BE WARNED: there is a lot of romance. (may not be appropriate for some people)
These two books really improved the Trilogy as a whole! You really had the chance of being in the POV of Warner and Adam which helped me understand both characters more!
I absolutely adore how this book is written. (It is quite detailed- which i personally love!)
fun fun fun... for everyone!
Really entertaining

Benzema was arrested by French police last week and questioned over allegations that he is involved in a group attempting to blackmail Valbuena
The Real Madrid striker scored a brace in the 3-0 win over Celta Vigo
Real Madrid's 5-0 win over Almeria on Saturday was soured slightly by an injury to Cristiano Ronaldo but Carlo Ancelotti, the Real coach, said there was nothing to worry about after the forward limped off in the second half, having scored the opening goal.
Les Bleus overturned a 2-0 first leg deficit in Paris
On a dramatic night that completed the list of European qualifiers for next year's World Cup, France stormed back from a two-goal deficit to earn a place in Brazil while Cristiano Ronaldo almost single-handly took Portugal through with a stunning hat-trick.

Reports suggested the striker was ready to move to Italy but the new Real boss has insisted that he remains one of his firs-team players until he is told otherwise

 As for the Apple drawings I think the moot on other forums is correct. The dimension is inferred in Detail B (looking at iphone 4s), as from the center of the rear camera. So we get a dim of 8.77mm. If you have an iPhone handy draw or print it out cut it out of paper and offer it up to the real fillet, if it fits wear it.

 Just added this if anyone else is gonna do it from scratch.

text: Driving cessation is likely to reduce mobility and negatively affect the quality of life. The consequences have been described to be mostly negative (for an overview see: [52][50]. Driving cessation has been found to reduce the number of out-of-home activities [71] and to be related to increased depression [37]. It has also been argued that giving up driving has a negative impact on an older persons identity, his feeling of independence, and his dignity [8] [14][16][28][89]. These negative feelings are related to having to give up something that has been a large part of their adult life and was closely identified with their perceived roles in family and society. Having ceased driving, most people dislike asking for rides. To keep their dignity, people often insist that they provide some reciprocal service (cooking a meal, babysitting) or gift in return for the ride [13][16].

K-01 Scene modes ...

K-01 Scene modes ...
I decided to fool around with the Scene Modes on my 1-year old K-01. Much to my surprise, the DNG files and JPEG files were identical. In other words, the RAW files had the Scene Modes embedded. Is this standard for the Pentax K cameras? I've not experienced a RAW file being anything other than pure RAW with any other camera I've owned. And I don't see anything in the K-01 manual that suggests that the Scene Mode curves will show up in the RAW files. Thanks for whatever help/explanation you can offer.

New Delhi, Dec 3 (IANS) Television actor Romit Raj, who plays bad guy Yuvraj in Zee TV's 'Ghar Ki Lakshmi-Betiyaan', says success tastes sweeter to him as it is not easy to make a mark in an industry dominated by women.
'There are a large number of actors working in television serials these days, but only a handful can make a mark. It feels great to be recognised and to succeed in a medium where women rock,' Romit told IANS.
'I feel fortunate to be associated with a good serial. I think I have a sense of scripts that helped me choose the right serial,' he said.
The young actor is thoroughly enjoying his current popularity.
'Women are just addicted to the soap operas. It is just amazing to see them talking about you and your serial every time, endlessly.
'Especially uncles and aunties. They take the serial so seriously that when I meet them at a mall or temple they come up to me and say that I must stop doing bad deeds,' the actor said smiling delightedly.
Romit does not want to be seen always as a villain, and has picked up 'Maayka', where he plays a positive role.
'An actor must do all kinds of roles. When I was offered 'Maayka', I grabbed it as it does a balancing act,' he said.
Before venturing into television, the actor appeared in films like 'Hum Dum' and 'Yatra' but did not meet with success.
He said: 'When I gave the audition for television the selectors did not know that I had done films before. Hence I had to start from scratch like any other newcomer.'
'I believe the medium chooses you rather than the person opting for it. I feel fortunate that I got selected because after my two films went unnoticed I had no work. I was broke and emotionally shattered.'
Commenting on the small-screen industry, he said: 'Television not only gives more visibility to actors, making them a favourite of millions, but also gives employment to a large number of people.'

I have noticed that on two occasions, wispy trails of smoke wafting from both sides of the car. The second time it happened, I was in heavy traffic on the freeway. This afternoon, when I returned to my home, I could smell the acrid stench of burning, although there were no visible signs of burning. Shoudl I be concerned, and what precautions need I take? Thank you.

Tysons Phone Marketer Accuses Cellular One of False Ads
Burn, Timothy, The Washington Times (Washington, DC)
A Virginia wireless phone company has accused Cellular One of using false advertising to entice digital phone customers in the highly competitive Washington-Baltimore market.
Simply Wireless Inc. of Tysons Corner filed suit Thursday in Montgomery County Circuit Court, charging that Greenbelt-based Cellular One falsely stated it would immediately launch an advanced fully digital wireless system in the region.
Simply Wireless asserts that it lost many customers who switched over to Cellular One believing they would get fully digital service, which has more features and better security than analog technology.
"Consumers who signed long-term contracts for Cellular One service are now beyond the reach of Simply Wireless since they can't get out of their contracts with Cellular One withouta substantial penalty," said Sohail Qureshi, president and chief executive officer of Simply Wireless.
The company further claims that, at the time the ads were placed, Cellular One did not have a digital system in place.
Simply Wireless, which sells phone products made by AT&T Wireless Inc., wants the advertising stopped and is seeking to recover damages as a result of lost business. …

Cozied up to the toilet, face stuck to the floor
I met expectations that I was trying to ignore
Jobe had such patience I wonder, what's that like
A hundred thousand million, that's what you like
So I was thinkin'
So these cities are sprouting like a spit in the eye
And this world isn't waiting, it's just passing me by
I just peak in the window lookin' inside
The butchers got a fork in your face but I'm standing alive
And I was singin'

Episode 002: Why Campaigns Go Negative: An Intro to Game Theory
Podcast: Play in new window | Download (Duration: 24:59 — 22.9MB)
In this podcast we discuss:
- What a 'Game' is, mathematically
- Some areas where games apply to real life (most of them!)
- How game theory is applied in biology
- The Prisoners Dilemma game, and
- Why all political campaigns go negative
For more about game theory, a great resource is GameTheory.net. And I'll be posting a series of articles on my blog introducing game theory in politics and biology over the next few months.
I've got two things to apologize for. First, that it's taken so long to get this second episode on the web. After we posted the last one, we were heading right into the last weeks of the term, and lord knows how that goes.
The second thing is that this episode had some technical difficulties. There is some clipping here and there, and some chucks had to be removed (sorry if that breaks the flow).
At the end of the episode, I've appended a short discussion of the Nash Equilibrium in Game Theory. We'd actually had a section on that within the podcast, but it was too messed up to use. So, I cut that whole chunk out and we redid it, and added at the end.

Novell: More Support for openSUSE
Linux distributor Novell is reorganizing: from now on, one developer team will dedicate itself entirely to openSUSE.
The news came on the blog of Novell developer Roland Haidl who explains that Novell wants to intensify their sponsorship of openSUSE. "It is not longer the "when time is left, please work in the openSUSE project" thing we often had before, we now have the singular situation to have a team of more than 10 experts in Novell to only work on openSUSE community topics," writes Haidl. One of the teams main responsibilities will be the distribution, along with making it easier for new developers to join in.
For Haidl, this means a role-change. "Now, while Novell/OPS engineering adopted to a new strategy regarding openSUSE, we decided that the people, who Novell dedicated to work in the openSUSE project, come under my responsibility" he writes. The Director Operations and Communities OPS has been working on the openSUSE project for the last ten years, involved in documentation, design and usability. Klaas Freitag, also known for his hobby project Kraft, an open source order processing software, has been nominated Team Leader. Project Manager is Henne Vogelsang and Stephan Kulow retains his position as Release Manager.

Founded in 1989 by a small group of Nicaraguan women, this institution has remained true to its initial goal of providing its clients (90% of which are women) with an opportunity for economic growth, in addition to personal and professional empowerment. Supporting an ADIM borrower means contributing not only to the continued offering of the socially conscious services it provides, but also to the sustainable growth of a truly unique microfinance institution.
Concurrent and Successive Loans
Our Field Partners often work with borrowers over a series of loans as the borrowers build credit, take out bigger loans, and expand their businesses. In order to make it easier for our Field Partners to post loans for borrowers who have been listed on Kiva before, we allow them to post successive and concurrent loans for their Kiva borrowers. This means that our Field Partners are able to post a borrower's second, third, etc., loan on Kiva without having to re-enter all of the borrower's information.
This borrower has been listed on Kiva before, so you'll see an updated loan description, as well as excerpts of the original descriptions from earlier loans. Most borrowers take out loans consecutively, meaning that they receive a second loan after having repaid the first. However, sometimes our Field Partners give out concurrent loans, allowing borrowers to take out one primary loan and a secondary "add-on" loan along with it. These "add-on" loans are typically smaller than the borrower's primary loan and serve a different purpose. Because Field Partners can now post loans as successive and concurrent loans, you will be able to track borrower progress over time and see the various ways a borrower is working with our Field Partners through funds from Kiva's lenders.
