Important InformationAbout Asociación Arariwa
Asociación Arariwa is a large non-governmental organization that started offering microcredit in 1994 to improve the quality of life, skills and equity of the population in the rural Cusco region of Peru. Arariwa serves the southern Andean provinces of Peru, and is distinguished by its efforts to reach the very poor, who often live in isolated rural areas. Arariwa fosters village banking, supports savings accounts, promotes access to education, and empowers women entrepreneurs (who make up 78% of its borrowers).
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.

The Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest celebrates 45 years of German fun this year! That's right, Southern California's #1 Oktoberfest turns 45 and the celebration promises to be one of our best yet!
Located in the mountain town of Big Bear Lake, our quaint celebration has always been based on the lore of the world's original Oktoberfest. Over the years, the Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest has become world renown for its own traditions and old-world ambience, celebrating friends, family and good times. A festival like no other, guests are treated to authentic German entertainment; feast on Brats and Knockwursts direct from the German butcher; and enjoy the very same beers poured at Munich's Oktoberfest for more than 150 years!
While the Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest has moved with the times, each year adding new attractions and entertainment, the atmosphere remains the same. Our special extended family comes together to celebrate a simpler era. The mountain air stirs up a unique blend of "Getmütlichkeit" and camaraderie that have continued to make amazing memories for forty-five years!
In celebration of our 45 anniversary, this year's festival will run for eight consecutive weekends, kicking off on Saturday, September 12 continuing through Saturday, October 31st.
And speaking of October 31st, it's OUR GERMAN SPOOKTACULAR
The 45th Annual Big Bear Lake Oktoberfest celebrates closing day on Saturday, October 31st with the mountain's biggest Halloween Party – a German Spooktacular. Grand prize for this year's adult costume contest will be $1200 cash. With two bands, a DJ, lots of German fun and a $1200 first prize, Oktoberfest is the place to celebrate Halloween!
The children's costume contest takes place at approximately 3:00 p.m. Children dressed in costume come in for FREE!
The adult contest takes place at 10:00 p.m. Top prize is $1200 cash. Other prizes awarded to the top eight finalists include a weekend package to the 2016 Oktoberfest, commemorative beer steins, and a variety of Oktoberfest clothing and souvenirs.

Washington beat Cal, 7-4, on Thursday, and the Huskies will finish their regular season with two games against the free-falling Golden Bears.
A week away from postseason play, the Washington softball team appears sufficiently equipped for whatever lies ahead.
The 12th-ranked Huskies stroked a dozen hits, looked sharp on defense and got a satisfactory pitching performance from junior ace Kaitlin Inglesby in a 7-4 win over 17th-ranked California on Thursday night in front of 688 at Husky Softball Stadium.
The victory gives Washington (37-14, 15-7 Pac-12) three straight wins. With two final regular-season games left Friday (7 p.m.) and Saturday (3 p.m.) against a fading Cal squad, the Huskies are in position to finish second in the conference and get a home-field assignment when the NCAA tournament begins next weekend.
The tournament draw will be announced Sunday at 7 p.m. on ESPNU. Washington owns a top-12 standing in two polls and the No. 13 spot on the NCAA's most recent RPI rankings, boosting the odds it will be one of 16 host sites chosen for opening-weekend play.

"I have no clue," UW coach Heather Tarr said of her team's chances of hosting a four-team regional, which Washington has done the past three seasons. "We're trying to win the game tomorrow, and that's all we're worrying about."
UW might not have much to worry about the next two days. The Golden Bears (35-16, 9-13) were a top-five team earlier this season until they lost two-time conference pitcher of the year Jolene Henderson to a knee injury April 21. Thursday night's loss was their eighth straight.
Henderson (29-8) made her first appearance since the injury against UW and gave up a run in the first inning, her only inning. Victoria Hayward scored on an infield single by Inglesby.
After Hooch Fagaly singled home a run in the second off Cal freshman pitcher Vanessa Alvarez, Inglesby drove in two more runs with a single to center to give UW a 4-0 lead.
Second baseman Kelli Suguro, a junior walk-on from Kentridge High School, put Washington up 6-0 in the third with a two-run single. Inglesby escaped a based-loaded jam in the top of the third with a strikeout but surrendered two-run home runs to Cheyenne Cordes in the fifth and Victori Jones in the sixth.
UW center fielder Kylee Lahners added an insurance run with a homer to right on a 1-2 pitch in the sixth.
Inglesby is 21-6 overall, 13-3 in Pac-12 play. She struck out three and walked one while giving up eight hits.
"It was OK," Tarr said of Inglesby's pitching. "She's thrown better."
Inglesby concurred. "I don't think I threw particularly well," she said, "but I was able to keep them off-balance enough of the time. They capitalized on my mistakes when I made them."
• Suguro, batting ninth, joined Inglesby, Haward and Lahners with two hits in the game. She began the game hitting .304. "It's been a great season so far," Suguro said.

#2 & #3- How are they not already implemented??
WOW, you were reading my mind, scary! But you hit the nail on the head with your suggestions. I would really like to sync wish list between my computer and my NST!
Oh improved PDF facilities, including pan/zoom/scale and perhaps even allow for rotation (using the nook ST in landscape mode) would be nice..
I still would like to see a return *and* update of the partially functional browser, Being able to login to a captive home page and being able to use wifi other than at B&N and home is nice... (so isnt being able to read your web mail in a pinch)
Why, oh why hasnt anyone thought of putting in an applet for an offline version of wikipedia, similar to the WikiReader appliance, it be nice to be able to have an encyclopedia offline.
Functional calculator (scientific even) would be nice too. Even the full featured Nooks dont seem to have a good version of this essential applet..
@bugeek: The trouble with this kind of list is that each user is going to have his or her own list of essential apps. I think B&N does well to recognize that the NST is first and foremost an ereader, and not to clutter it with other stuff.
That said, there is a lot of room for improvement in the ereader software, and there are other apps that many folks here have mentioned. There is a whole separate board devoted to NST Ideas and Suggestions. I suggest you search it to see whether yours have already been posted. (I know PDF enhancements and browser have been.) Add your comments to the appropriate posts, and start a new topic there for each idea not already posted. That approach will give your ideas maximum visibility.

I have a Surly Karate Monkey running a 42 tooth single speed crank. The bike was set up by my LBS (Boulevard Bikes in Chicago--great shop). There is just about zero space between the chain ring and the frame. I could fit a credit card in there but not much else. Is this something to be concerned about? I'm afraid that one little nudge and the teeth will be smacking into the frame. I know many others have run single speed Karate Monkeys w/a 42 tooth rings, so I'm wondering what's wrong with my setup---is there something I can do to adjust the crank/chain ring to move it out w/out screwing up the chain line? Isn't the frame designed to handle larger chain rings? Would going larger exacerbate this problem?
Thanks in advance for any insight or advice.

BMI View : Another Brazilian hydropower project is facing an uncertain future as a result of environmental licensing issues. The 7.8GW São Luiz do Tapajos hydropower plant, which would be the third largest in the country, has had its environmental licence declined by a federal court judge. However, it is unlikely thi s is the end of the story given President Dilma Vana Rousseff 's displayed commitment to building much needed additional capacity in the Amazon region.
The deficiencies in Brazil's environmental licensing procedures are resulting in significant cost and time wastage for developers. The country's inability to provide a comprehensive, unilateral and most importantly respected ruling on the environmental credentials of a project prior to that project being tendered is contributing to investor wariness over Brazil's infrastructure sector. The failure of the system has led to projects which should never have been approved encountering repeated and costly delays later on in the project life cycle.
|Downside Risk From Project Delays
|Brazil Hydropower Capacity And Power Plants Infrastructure Industry Value Growth
The latest project to fall foul of the disorganised nature of the Brazilian environment licensing system is the 7.8GW São Luiz do Tapajos hydropower plant. The dam is the largest of six planned on the Tapajos and Jamanxim Rivers (comprising: 2.3GW Jatobá dam (2.3GW), Cachoeira dos Patos dam (528MW), the Jamanxin dam (881MW) and the Cachoeira do Caí dam (802MW)). The entire complex would have a generating capacity of 11GW, highlighting its importance to the future energy security of Brazil. The project is being developed by a consortium including Eletrobras , Eletronorte , EDF and Camargo Correa . However, despite having been in the planning for a number of years already, with a targeted completion date of December 2017, the project has only just had its environmental licence declined by a federal court judge. Judge José Airton de Aguiar Portela ruled that the project did not provide an adequate environmental impact assessment. The ruling follows reports from public prosecutors that the project would displace more than 10,000 indigenous residents in the Amazon. Eletrobras and Eletronorte have disp uted these claims according to B namericas.
We do not believe that this will be the end of the project given the commitment to developing new hydropower capacity displayed by the current government. Indeed, the Tapajos complex has been deemed strategically important and a priority project by the government and therefore we expect further studies to be carried out on the project and its eventual approval. Indeed, the Tapajos debate is only the latest in a string of projects which have been divisive on environmental grounds. However, the majority of these projects have all been moved forward thus underlining our view that the Tapajos project is not dead in the water yet.
The best example is the 11.2GW Belo Monte hydropower project, which has had multiple injunctions taken out against it on environmental grounds. Ongoing disputes over the environmental implications of the project have resulted in substantial and costly delays with construction yet to start. Despite international criticism of the project and nearly all private investors pulling out of the consortium developing the project, it is moving forward. Indeed, on November 26th 2012 BNDES approved a US$10.8bn loan for the project. The loan is the largest in the development bank ' s history and is equal to four fifths of the project cost. The presence of BNDES to finance the project, and a raft of state companies to develop it means these projects are not experiencing the typical reality test taking it to market to raise financing or secure a developer would present. Consequently, despite failures in the regulatory process and questions over the smooth running of the projects, we expect Amazon power projects to move forward due to the seemingly unequivocal and comprehensive support from the Brazilian government.

just wanted to post a pic of the cactus which I got last year at the spring swap. I planted it in the new bed that I made under the south window of the sunroom, using cardboard with soil over top. The bed did great and I am looking forward to it doing even better this year
Keeping my fingers crossed that it will perk up.
They are amazing plants and grow natively here on our farm. I think the drought has killed off a few, but I've seen them rebound after just about every other disaster. Here the pads will root by just falling on the ground. I've got my fingers crossed, but I think yours will do just fine. You might lose the top pad, but a new plant will emerge from the roots so don't give up on it.

Criteo, a global online display ad retargeting company with
over 4,000 clients, raised the proposed deal size for its
upcoming IPO on Monday. The Paris, France-based company now plans
to raise $202 million by offering 7.2 million shares at a price
range of $27 to $29. The company had previously filed to offer
the same number of shares at a range of $23 to $26. At the
midpoint of the revised range, Criteo would raise 14% greater
proceeds than previously anticipated and would command a fully
diluted market cap of $1.7 billion, a 15% increase from its
previously proposed market cap of $1.5 billion.
Criteo, which was founded in 2005 and booked $459 million in sales for the 12 months ended June 30, 2013, plans to list on the NASDAQ under the symbol CRTO. Criteo initially filed confidentially on May 31, 2013. J.P. Morgan, Deutsche Bank and Jefferies are the joint bookrunners on the deal. It is expected to price during the week of October 28, 2013.

Nineteen-year-old Safi Kachmar of Norwich pleaded guilty today in New London Superior Court to burglarizing three homes and setting fire to a pickup truck in 2011, but balked when a judge asked him to admit he assaulted a homeowner's dog during one of the break-ins.
Kachmar will be sentenced March 13 to up to five years in prison followed by five years probation for first-degree larceny, three counts of third-degree burglary and conspiracy to commit third-degree arson. He admitted to all of the crimes but denied assaulting a 200-pound bull mastiff during a burglary on Thames View Road in Norwich on Sept. 7, 2011. The homeowner, John Wuorio, told Judge Susan B. Handy he had to euthanize his pet after the burglars struck it with a hatchet, dislocating its hip, and sprayed chlorine bleach in its face.
"It was totally wrong," said Wuorio, who left the courtroom before hearing Kachmar's denial of the attack on his dog.
Kachmar and 19-year-old Waylon Verley, who knew a teen-age occupant of the home, stole coins, guns and knives worth more than $40,000 during the burglary, according to the state.
"He denies the dog was injured while he was in the house," said his attorney, Matthew Sorokin.
"Honestly, it wasn't," added Kachmar.
The judge allowed Kachmar to plead guilty to first-degree larceny and third-degree burglary under the Alford Doctrine, which indicates he doesn't agree with the state's allegations but does not want to risk conviction at trial, where he would possibly face a harsher sentence.
Kachmar also pleaded guilty to breaking into a shed at a home on Saunders Hollow Road in Old Lyme in November 2011 and then setting it on fire to conceal evidence of the burglary. He pleaded guilty to breaking into a home on Krug Road in Preston on Nov. 15, 2011 and stealing more than $16,500 worth of electronics and jewelry.
Additionally, he pleaded guilty to concocting Molotov cocktails with Verley and placing them under a pickup truck on George Avenue in Croton on Oct. 7, 2011 after the truck's owner allegedly ripped them off in a marijuana deal.
Verley remains incarcerated while his case is pending. A third teen, Austin Zajac, was allegedly involved in some of the crimes and was given a suspended sentence, according to court records.
Verley told police they were looking for guns because they planned to start robbing banks and armored cars. He said they wanted to make enough money to move out of state and buy a house.

This has a very distinctive style to it - there are several cases within the overarching case, but the overarching case is not really central the way it is in something like the September Society or even Sherlock Holmes or Agatha Christie - though the main character references Mrs. Christie quite often as part of getting people to take her seriously. It is mostly about Africa and appreciating the culture and Precious Ramotswe's background. There is a GREAT tension between old and new Africa, and women's perceptions of men, so that makes it a very teachable book.
It did not grab me. I thought the first couple of chapters were good but quickly lost interest.
Interesting enough to listen to while spending a lot of time in my car. Don't think I'll continue with the series.
This is the first novel I've read by Alexander McCall Smith. He seems like a very gentle writer with a good knowledge of human nature and its many foibles.
As does Precious Ramotswe - a delightful and optimistic character - the first woman to open a detective agency in Botswana. We get her backstory - and there's scars and bruises along the way - but nevertheless she have maintained a positive outlook on life and will not be crushed despite the slow start of her business. She's the embodiment of everything good in Botswana.

Amazon.com Amazon.com Review (ISBN 034911675X, Paperback)Penzler Pick, July 2001: Working in a mystery tradition that will cause genre aficionados to think of such classic sleuths as Melville Davisson Post's Uncle Abner or Robert van Gulik's Judge Dee, Alexander McCall Smith creates an African detective, Precious Ramotswe, who's their full-fledged heir.
It's the detective as folk hero, solving crimes through an innate, self-possessed wisdom that, combined with an understanding of human nature, invariably penetrates into the heart of a puzzle. If Miss Marple were fat and jolly and lived in Botswana--and decided to go against any conventional notion of what an unmarried woman should do, spending the money she got from selling her late father's cattle to set up a Ladies' Detective Agency--then you have an idea of how Precious sets herself up as her country's first female detective. Once the clients start showing up on her doorstep, Precious enjoys a pleasingly successful series of cases.
But the edge of the Kalahari is not St. Mary Mead, and the sign Precious orders, painted in brilliant colors, is anything but discreet. Pointing in the direction of the small building she had purchased to house her new business, it reads "THE NO. 1 LADIES DETECTIVE AGENCY. FOR ALL CONFIDENTIAL MATTERS AND ENQUIRIES. SATISFACTION GUARANTEED FOR ALL PARTIES. UNDER PERSONAL MANAGEMENT."
The solutions she comes up with, whether in the case of the clinic doctor with two quite different personalities (depending on the day of the week), or the man who had joined a Christian sect and seemingly vanished, or the kidnapped boy whose bones may or may not be those in a witch doctor's magic kit, are all sensible, logical, and satisfying. Smith's gently ironic tone is full of good humor towards his lively, intelligent heroine and towards her fellow Africans, who live their lives with dignity and with cautious acceptance of the confusions to which the world submits them. Precious Ramotswe is a remarkable creation, and The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency well deserves the praise it received from London's Times Literary Supplement. I look forward with great eagerness to the upcoming books featuring the memorable Miss Ramotswe, Tears of the Giraffe and Morality for Beautiful Girls, soon to be available in the U.S. --Otto Penzler
(retrieved from Amazon Thu, 12 Mar 2015 18:06:45 -0400)
This first novel in Alexander McCall Smith's widely acclaimed The No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series tells the story of the delightfully cunning and enormously engaging Precious Ramotswe, who is drawn to her profession to help people with problems in their lives. Immediately upon setting up shop in a small storefront in Gaborone, she is hired to track down a missing husband, uncover a con man, and follow a wayward daughter. But the case that tugs at her heart, and lands her in danger, is a missing eleven-year-old boy, who may have been snatched by witchdoctors.… (more)

I regularly get cramps- during a ride, after a ride, in the middle of the night... Mostly in my hamstrings and sometimes in my calves.
Beside just getting in better shape, how do I keep those nasty devils away?

Make sure that you are getting enough potassium in your diet. Discuss this with your doctor and he/she may suggest that you get a blood test to check your blood level potassium and if it is low may even suggest that you get a prescription potassium supplement such as Slow-K. Over-the-counter potassium supplements will have little effect since they contain such small amounts.
I agree with lillypad
I would also add foods that are high in potassium - bananas, dates, figs. My favorite shake that I make is 2 frozen bananas, some soy milk, and protein powder. This usually takes care of my muscle cramps
and check to make sure you are properly hydrated
and try scheduling a deep tissue massage
Magnesium is equally important and it's fairly difficult to get even the RDA in most diets. Magnesium glycinate is an excellent source of magnesium-one that is well-absorbed and without gastrointestinal problems. "KAL" is one brand of it.
If you're cramping up on the rides, be sure you're replenishing your electrolytes that are sweated away... Stretch before and after the rides. Use easier gears, mash less, spin more.

Can't add any remedies to what has already been given. I can tell you one of the best tricks that I have ever learned about how to deal with a cramp once you get it.
I was playing in a soccer match one time and flopped down with a psychotic calf cramp. A physician who happened to do a lot of work with the Dallas Cowboys was one of parents. He walked up, pinched my nose tightly between his thumb and forefinger right across the nostrils (like you would if you wanted to pinch your nose closed before a feet first cliff dive) and said, "Now relax your body and breathe through your mouth." In a few seconds, the cramp gently released and didn't come back. There was also a whole lot less pain afterwards than I remembered from other ones.
This accupressure technique is especially good at night when you wake up with a cramp or better yet want to fight one off. Once you get the hang of it, you can do it without much fanfare and go right back to sleep.
I take some meds for an inner ear condition that causes me to cramp up at times. So I get a lot of practice. This technique works great. I have used it on the bike many times to get a muscle to settle down. There is a moutain bike club up towards Crested Butte who I showed it to when I found about half of them cramped up and sprawled just below the summit of a climb. They still think it's the most amazing thing that they have ever seen.
Thanks for all the ideas!! I'll try them all out.
Actually its a combination of all the above, but a huge instigator of cramping is lack of sodium. Next time you go to a fast food place, grab a few extra salt packets. When you start to cramp rip a pack of salt open and shake it into your mouth and chase it with a drink... or dump 1/4" teaspoon of salt (preferably Morton lite salt, its made with sodium and potassium) in your drink.
It will make a difference... it will give it a try.
I use the liquid form, absorbs better. Comes with vit D also.
Completly removed cramps i got at night in my calves. Also helps me sleep.
As a side note, using fitday.com for months, cal/mag were the 2 it showed i lacked the most also. That and zinc.
Dunno about sodium, with the amount of salt thats over put into all the food these days I cant see that i was lacking sodium.
-If you cant see it from space, its not a real hill
-If two bikes are going in the same direction, ITS A RACE!
When I used to ride a bit, I'd get them a lot especially at night. I started drinking more water and it really helped (although i had to pee at night, but atleast i wasnt writhing in pain). I think stretching is very underestimated in dealing w/ cramps.
After trying almost everything on the market I found a new product specifically designed for the heat which means it has a very high electrolyte content. It is designed by the former Medical Director of the Eastern Canadian Ironman and the Subaru Series Ironman events. It has a blend of 5 electrolytes to replenish you with the same rates and ratios that you are losing them at. At the same time it has no artificial ingredients and uses dextrose as the primary carb (this is what they use in oral hydration solutions in hospitals). Dextrose is the most efficient carb to prevent bonking, is the most efficient for facilitate electrolyte absorption, and is the easiest and quickest on your system to be processed. This product also is 35x lower in acid than Gatorade and has a natural lactic buffer (to reduce muscle burn). To top it off, the maker guarantees it (you will not cramp, bonk or get an upset stomach, or your money back)! www.eload.net I have now been using it for 3 years with phenominal results.

Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon announced today the appointment of Tarek Mitri of Lebanon as his new Special Representative and Head of the United Nations Support Mission in Libya (UNSMIL), according to the UN chief's spokesperson.
Mr. Mitri will succeed Ian Martin who will complete his assignment on 14 October this year.
"The Secretary-General is grateful to Mr. Martin for his dedicated service during his tenure in UNSMIL over the past year," Mr. Ban's spokesperson said in a statement.
Mr. Mitri hails from an academic background and held several ministerial portfolios with the Government of Lebanon between 2005 and 2011.
Most recently, Mr. Mitri held the UN EducationaIn July, some 2.7 million Libyans headed to the polls to vote for members of the North African country's new National Congress.l, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) Chair on Dialogue at Saint Joseph University in Beirut, and served as a Senior Fellow at the Fares Center for Public Policy and International Affairs of the American University of Beirut. Prior to joining the Lebanese Government, Mr. Mitri also spent time working with the World Council of Churches in Geneva and the Middle East Council of Churches.
In July, some 2.7 million Libyans headed to the polls to vote for members of the North African country's new National Congress. Over 3,000 candidates ran for office, including more than 600 women. The election was conducted in a largely peaceful manner, receiving praise from international observers and the Security Council.
The polls were the first free elections in decades in Libya, where Muammar al-Qadhafi ruled for more than 40 years until a pro-democracy uprising last year – similar to the protests in other countries in the Middle East and North Africa – led to civil war and the end of his regime.

|Maidalchini Pamphilj, Olimpia
Contemporary portrait by an unknown artist
26 May 1591
Viterbo, Papal States
|27 September 1657
(aged 66)
San Martino al Cimino, Papal States
Olimpia Maidalchini Pamphilj (26 May 1591[1] – 27 September 1657), (also spelled Pamphili and known as Donna Olimpia or Olimpia Pamphili), was the sister-in-law of Pope Innocent X (Pamphili). She rose to prominence as one of the most powerful women in Rome of her era and influenced foreign and domestic papal policy as well as several papal conclaves.[citation needed]
Early life[edit]
Maidalchini was born in Viterbo, the daughter of Sforza Maidalchini, a condottiere, and Vittoria Gualterio, patrician of Orvieto and Rome, noble of Viterbo (daughter of Giulio Gualterio, son of Sebastiano Gualterio, Bishop of Viterbo, Papal Nuncio to France and the Council of Trent). Her family was only moderately wealthy, but she married two wealthy men. Her first marriage to Paolo Nini lasted only a year or two. One of the wealthiest men in Viterbo, Nini died prematurely. Her second marriage was with Pamphilio Pamphili, brother of Cardinal Giambattista, the future Pope Innocent X.
After Pamphili's death, she became Innocent X's effective advisor. The pope elevated to the office of Cardinal Nephew the son, nephew and cousin of Olimpia Maidalchini: Camillo Francesco Maria Pamphili, Francesco Maidalchini, and Camillo Astalli, respectively.[2][3] On 14 November 1644, Innocent X made Camillo Pamphili cardinal-nephew, general of the church, legate to Avignon, secretary of briefs, and prefect of the judicial tribunal known as the Segnatura di Giustizia; Camillo Pamphili de facto shared the role of Cardinal Secretary of State with Giovanni Giacomo Panciroli.[3] However, on 21 January 1647, Camillo renounced the cardinalate to marry Olimpia Aldobrandini, the grand-niece of Pope Clement VIII and widow of Paolo Borghese, on 10 February.[3]
Afterwards, Innocent X promoted Francesco Maidalchini, the cousin of Olimpia Maidalchini, to replace Camillo Pamphili, but Francesco was viewed as incompetent and his appointment as disgraceful.[3] Thereafter, Innocent X adopted Camillo Astalli, and gave him the prerogatives of the cardinal-nephew on 19 September 1650,[3] including the Palazzo Pamphili.[4] However, Olimpia had Astalli deposed and sent away from Rome, making herself the "absolute mistress in the house".[4]
Like other Popes of the same era, Pope Innocent X, as Monarch of the Papal States, bestowed royal titles on some of his closest confidants and family. On 7 October 1645, Maidalchini received the honorific title, Princess of San Martino, effectively turning the small enclave of San Martino al Cimino into her personal principality. The title came with no more power or responsibility than that which she already held as Pamphili matriarch.
Maidalchini's influence waned after Innocent X recalled Fabio Chigi from Germany, made him secretary of state and subsequently a cardinal on 10 February 1652; Chigi succeeded Innocent X as Pope Alexander VII.[3]
According to papal historian Ludwig von Pastor, "the misfortune of Pope Pamphili was that the only person in his family who would have had the qualities necessary to fill such a position was a woman."[3]
Maidalchini's reputation can be seen in her unflattering bust by Alessandro Algardi (circa 1650), currently in the Doria Pamphili Gallery. Maidalchini was notorious for guarding access to Innocent X, and utilizing it to her own financial benefit. Her wired widow's hood in the bust was interpreted by Ann Sutherland[5] as a jab at the fact that neither Maidalchini nor her family provided for the burial of Innocent X after his death in 1655, which was paid for by Innocent X's former butler.[who?]
Eleanor Herman says that Olimpia locked the Pope alone in his chamber on the night from 26 to 27 December and she went to her palace in fear that the Pope died that night and that her palace was sacked and burned.[6]:361 The morning of the 27th, she was barred access to Innocent X's chamber, much to her chagrin since she was expecting to steal the two chests full of gold that were hidden under Innocent's bed.[6]:362 Right after Innocent's body was removed on 29 December, she entered the chamber, removed the chests, and then ran to her palace to lock herself in fear of what angry mobs could do to her.[6]:364 Olimpia, and many other people, removed papal treasures from the papal palace during the convalescence of Innocent,[7] to the point where he died in absolute poverty since everything had already been stolen from him by his last days of life.[6]:362–364 Olimpia allowed the pontiff's body to stay unburied for three days, and to be buried in "the simplest of forms imaginable".[7] claiming that she was a poor widow that couldn't arrange a proper burial.[8]
This version of events is entirely contrary to the Ceremonial Diary of one of the Masters of Ceremonies, Fulvio Servantio, who was in constant attendance during the last days of Pope Innocent, and whose duty it was to record the events of the death, funeral, and burial of the pope.[9] In fact the death and burial of Pope Innocent X was in every respect similar to that of any other seventeenth century pope. The pope lay ill in the Quirinal Palace, where eventually he died.[10] On December 27, Cardinal Chigi, his Secretary of State and eventual successor, was in the papal Antechamber, and spoke with the attending physicians, with Cardinal Azzolino and with the Duchess of S. Martino. The Papal Preacher, Giovanni Paolo Oliva, SJ, was summoned to assist the pope in his extremity. Cardinal Chigi was in attendance during the last twelve days.[11] The deathbed was attended by numerous persons, including thirty-nine cardinals, his Sacristan and his Confessor. Immediately after the Pope's death, Cardinal Antonio Barberini, the Cardinal Camerlengo, was summoned and he performed the certification of the death of the Pontiff. There was an autopsy and an enbalming shortly after his death on January 7. In the evening the body was then transferred in procession to the Vatican Palace. It was not left abandoned at all, let alone for three days. On January 8, the Cardinals met in Congregation at 15:00 hours in the Aula Paramenti of the Vatican Palace, with the Cardinal Dean presiding. Innocent X was buried on January 9 in St. Peter's Basilica, with the same thirty-nine cardinals in attendance. The sealing of the coffin was witnessed by Cardinals Ludovisi, Chigi, Omodeo, Ottoboni, Santacroce, Aldobrandini, Vidman, Raggi, Pio and Gualtieri, Princes Pamphili, Ludovisi and Giustiniani, and the Master of Ceremonies Fulvio Servantio.
Some historians describe Innocent X as "entirely under the control" of Maidalchini.[12] This legacy is tied up in the accounts of the Roman Pasquinade as well as French (Innocent X had shunned France in favor of Spain[13] and Protestant sources.[3] The Catholic Encyclopedia refers to Maidalchini as the "great blemish" on the pontificate of the "blameless" Innocent X, whom it styles a "lover of justice."[14] Maidalchini is sometimes referred to as "the papessa" ("lady pope"), a variant of a title also applied to Pasqualina Lehnert (confidant of Pope Pius XII), and (the legendary) Pope Joan.[15] Some sources even allege that Maidalchini was Innocent X's lover, an accusation which goes back to Gregorio Leti's Vita di Donna Olimpia Maidalchini (1666), written under the pseudonym Gualdus,[14] and that she poisoned cardinals (with the help of her pharmacist, Exili) to open up additional vacancies for simony.[15] German historian Leopold von Ranke concluded that she was not Innocent X's lover.[4]
- ^ Ludwig von Pastor: History of the Popes vol. 30, London 1940, p. 32, says that she was born in 1594 and this date is followed by many other authors. However, Eleanor Herman, a recent biographer of Olimpia, indicates that she was born on 26 May 1591 and that she died at the age of 66. She adds that this date is confirmed by the baptismal registers in the episcopal archive of Viterbo. An account on the website of the Galleria Doria-Pamphilj also says that she was born in 1591.

Williams, Papal Genealogy: The Families and Descendants of the Popes, "'Donna Olimpia declared that she was a poor widow, and it was 'beyond her power' to have the body properly interred." This is taken from Leopold von Ranke's The History of the Popes, volume III, p. 36. It was not the responsibility of a 'poor widow', however, to pay for a papal burial. The expense was always borne by the Roman Church through the Apostolic Camera. That is one of the reasons why the Cardinal Camerlengo retained his office at the head of the financial administration during the Sede Vacante.
