The Requirements for Coming
"Jesus does not say, "Come to me, all you who have learned how to concentrate in prayer, whose minds no longer wander, and I will give you rest." No, Jesus opens his arms to his needy children and says, "Come to Me, all who are weary and heavy- laden, and I will give you rest" (Matthew 11:28 , NASB). The criteria for coming to Jesus is weariness. Come overwhelmed with life. Come with your wandering mind. Come messy."

Reading 2015: What's Best Next
Like many Evangelicals, I have grown weary of seeing Christian authors simply take secular books, concepts, and ideas, slap on the label "Biblical" (or "Gospel-centered," "Christian," "godly," or other buzzwords), throw in a few (usually-out-of-context) Bible verses and call it their own, usually holding their version on a pedestal.
When I first saw this book and started into it, I'm afraid both Daniel and I did a mental eye roll, thinking that's what this book would be. But all those initial red flags quickly dropped as I delved further into this book.
Is it possible to disguise a theology book as a productivity book? Or a productivity book as a theology book? If so, Matt Perman just did it in What's Best Next: How the Gospel Transforms the Way You Get Things Done. And actually, it seems he's done better than simply disguising one as the other: he's showed how the two are intrinsically linked together for the believer. (more…)

Reading 2013: Bread & Wine
At this point in my life, it is rare that life should bring me to tears, though sometimes books and movies get me closer to that point (well, along with too little sleep). But a book about food? There were no heaving sobs, but Bread & Wine: A Love Letter to Life Around the Table with Recipes by Shauna Niequist kept simultaneously me laughing out loud and wondering if my watery eyes would turn to flowing tears.
Bread & Wine is profound, moving, deeply spiritual, and deeply human. It's about hoping and healing, feasting and fasting, learning to love and to accept love, learning when to hold others close and when to let go, and learning to weave together the rhythms life. Most of all, it's about learning to gather together and embrace community and hospitality, particularly for those of us who are the people of the bread and wine.
This unique book recipe blends part spiritual memoir and part cookbook (although Neiquist insists it is not, maybe a "collection of recipes," then?) to create a flavor all its own.
Niequist's book will undoubtedly be on my list of favorite reads for 2013. Although I haven't yet tried any of the recipes, the spiritual lessons are simmering away on my heart and mind. (And hopefully, I'll make Shauna's recipe for blueberry crisp before we eat all the blueberries the kids and I just picked!)
Shauna's husband discovered that he had a gluten allergy, and many of Shauna's friends have had to live with food restrictions. Her book is geared in such a way that most of the recipes are friendly or easy to adapt to diets with special limitations, particularly gluten free. (Which is good, since my gluten intake since return to the States has hit me hard with some side effects this week.)
Going into this book, I didn't realize who the author's father was, and I hadn't read anything by Niequist prior to this book. Realizing who she was might have changed my perception of the book, though she certainly doesn't she bask in the limelight of her father's religious fame.
This is a book that offers real life and transparency without idolizing transparency or basking in brokenness. Particularly, Shauna deals with his struggles with fertility and body-image.
Evangelicals who hold to the belief that Scripture teaches total from alcohol may be a bit uncomfortable with Niequists frequent mention of enjoying alcoholic beverages (after all, the title is Bread & Wine), but I think even many who take such a position would readily take value in the overall message of the book.

NeverSeconds: One primary school pupil's daily dose of school dinners. – A 9-year-old girl blogs about her daily school lunches, with photos. (I believe she's from Scotland.)

American Scripture: How David Barton Won the Christian Right – As someone who attended high school history classes watching David Barton videos, I found this article helpful and insightful.
"Barton's focus on returning to the original text, and his pointed disdain for the scholars whom he accuses of distorting its plain meaning, seems to resonate with his largely evangelical audience. There is a reason for this. It echoes the general doctrine of sola scriptura, the bedrock of the Reformation, that the text of the Bible alone contains the knowledge necessary for salvation. It draws on the tradition of prooftexting, using verses lifted from a larger text to buttress specific points. And in particular, it mirrors the notion of the perspicuity of Scripture — that its essential teachings are sufficiently clear that "not only the learned, but the unlearned, in a due use of the ordinary means, may attain unto a sufficient understanding of them.""
"His error, of course, is that the hundred thousand documents he treasures were all written by men, bereft of divine inspiration, muddling through as best they knew how. Their authors were creatures of their time and place, seized by the usual sets of contradictory impulses and passions, changing and evolving with the passage of time. To apply the same exegetical principles to the works of man as to those of God is folly."
(HT: B.T. Schoolfield)
Violent Men, Working Women, and Evangelical Gender Norms – David Crabb has Paul Matzko write a guest blog post, "writing an immensely helpful article arguing that evangelicals often get their conception of gender roles from cultural norms rather than Scriptural principles."
"For the evangelical Christian, a series of logical questions follow: If there are so many different expectations of gender, which is right? Does the Bible mandate a particular kind of manhood and womanhood? Should Christians imitate broader cultural standards of masculinity and femininity? Do my gender norms conform to Scripture?
My purpose in writing this essay is to caution our small conservative evangelical subculture from answering those questions too hastily. It is tempting to fit Scripture to our ideas rather than the other way around. All too often, we try to legitimize our beliefs by ignoring contradictory opinions and rationalizing away inconvenient evidence. As harmful as that tendency is in politics, education, and family life, it is devastating when it shapes our interpretation of the Bible."
Worth the read, though I'll note in the words of one commenter, "[T]here are some very basic reasons why women (and myself included) often choose to stay at home with young children and it has less to do with Victorian values than it does with simply having certain body parts and the physical demands placed on them through pregnancy and (if you chose) breastfeeding. But for me, this is no tension. I find my place in this world through the intersection of my god-given abilities–my spiritual, mental, emotional, and yes, even physical gifting."

KANSAS CITY, Mo. (AP) — Yankees manager Joe Girardi says he may not activate Alex Rodriguez in time for Thursday night's game at Minnesota because the three-time MVP says his right knee still feels tentative.
Rodriguez was scheduled to play his final rehab game for Triple-A Scranton on Wednesday night. He underwent surgery last month for a torn meniscus.
Girardi said before the Yankees' game in Kansas City that he still plans to bring Rodriguez to Minnesota on Thursday where the Yankees will open a four-game series. But he might wait a few days to activate him.

"The place the late Fred and Myrtle put on the map" Bluff by Kakapo2
Bluff Travel Guide: 31 reviews and 61 photos
If not for the ferry trip to Stewart Island, there would not be a reason to visit Bluff. Well, if you are not on a mission like me.
I used our time before and after the trip to Stewart Island to follow the traces of Fred and Myrtle Flutey.
I had never met the two of them but their story has touched me, and every time I see the little film about them in Canterbury Museum in Christchurch - which again precedes every visit to the Paua House in this museum - I leave with a happy smile.
Fred and Myrtle were and - even after their deaths in 2000 and 2001 - still are Kiwi icons, a part of Kiwiana, which again is everything and everyone that makes New Zealand unique.
This loving and so likeable old couple opened their house in Bluff to the public because they had transformed it into the Paua House, the walls of their living room covered in paua shells. Fred collected and sanded them down to their shining beauty, Myrtle dusted them. More than one million visitors had a look at the prized shells in their house, they received tourism awards and became advertising stars on TV.
I can recite the quotes from the film in Canterbury Museum because I have taken all friends and acquaintances to the museum to see the reconstructed Paua House with the original shells. The relocation took place because after Fred and Myrtles death there was a family row, and in the end the house was sold. No-one had an interest in keeping the Paua House open to the public.
So the next best thing to do was to lease the whole content of the living room, including carpet, to Canterbury Museum. Well, it would probably have been better to lease it to Southland Museum in nearby Invercargill. But the most important thing is that this unique piece of Kiwiana was not lost and that the legacy of Fred and Myrtle Flutey is cherished, even if it is 609 kilometres from home.
Read more on the history and the exhibit at Canterbury Museum on my Christchurch page, including photos in a travelogue.
On my Bluff page you will find out what has become of the original Paua House and if there are any hints of paua love in the township today.
As said, Bluff is the gateway to Stewart Island if you decide to travel by boat.
Having said that under normal circumstances this town would not really be worth a visit. Let me correct this to saying it is not really worth a detour. But if you happen to be there, there surely are some sites to explore and some great views to enjoy.
Bluff, New Zealand's southernmost town, lies at the end of a peninsula that forms the western side of Bluff Harbour and Awarua Bay, with the port located in the relatively narrow entrance channel. It is on State Highway 1, which terminates one kilometre to the south of the town at Stirling Point. It has less than 2000 inhabitants – and no-one can complain if you call it sleepy.
The not always top up-to-date website address is www.bluff.co.nz
- Pros:Remote, quiet, some interesting sites and sights
- Cons:Not a very exciting place
- In a nutshell:Not worth a detour but worth a few looks if you happen to be there

I was about to board for Steward Island, but finally stayed with you in Bluff, Sissi. Very strange people, strange idea to make an abalone house; these shells are fascinating, but probably only to take a few nice specimen home, but not more. . . !
I'd be more interested with the beautiful nature of the edge of Gondwana or the oyster festival and walk along the coast. Very interesting page, very off beaten path ;).

COMMENT NOW on EPA's blog: What can EPA do to help communities understand the environmental conditions at former auto sector sites? And what can EPA do to help communities revitalize those sites?
Three public hearings are scheduled to gather comments on EPA's proposed tighter standards for ground-level ozone - a main component of smog. The hearings are:
Children's health advocates today applauded the Washington State Department of Ecology's first-in-the-nation program that will require manufacturers of toys and other children's products to report whether their products contain certain harmful chemicals.
Senators Mark Pryor (D-AR) and Ben Cardin (D-MD) introduced the Nanotechnology Safety Act of 2010, which would establish a program within the FDA to assess the health and safety implications of nanotechnology in everyday products and develop best practices for companies who employ nanotechnology.
The Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) issued new guidance for companies to disclose to investors the "material" risks they face from climate change, such as impacts to the company from new climate legislation, rising ocean levels, extreme weather, and new business opportunities, as well.
Shareholders filed resolutions with 12 natural gas companies calling for disclosure of the environmental impacts and risks to company finances caused by the controversial drilling practice known as hydraulic fracturing, as well as to disclose potential policies to reduce risks.
A new "Eyes on Drilling" tipline created by EPA lets citizens report suspicious activity related to oil and gas development. Call 1-877-919-4EPA or email firstname.lastname@example.com. EPA is counting on concerned citizens to report unusual activities related to drilling operations.
The CDC released its fourth biomonitoring report, the most extensive assessment to date of the exposure of Americans to environmental chemicals. The goal of the research is to determine which chemicals end up in people's bodies and at what concentrations. It is meant to help prioritize scientific work and for policymaking.
The EPA's Office of Solid Waste and Emergency Response (OSWER) is expanding public participation this month, launching a new online discussion forum on the EPA's blog and planning a "video town hall discussion" to discuss the Superfund.
The EPA released its "National Analysis" of Toxics Release Inventory (TRI) data. This is the earliest release and analysis of the data in the history of the TRI program. The "National Analysis" replaces what used to be known as the Public Data Release (PDR). Both the number of facilities reporting and the amount of releases declined in 2008.

In January this year, Hindustan Unilever (HUL) said it intended to gradually up the royalty that it would pay Unilever Plc to 3.15% of sales, or roughly twice the amount it was paying then, in about five years. Understandably, the news upset investors; it also gave proxy advisory firms reason to carp about how multinational firms were sending back too much to their parent firms. Since the government liberalised the royalty rules in late 2009, through Press Note 8 lifting the cap on such payments, HUL was well within its rights to pay more. But since that would hit earnings, the HUL stock lost some value.
Interestingly though, had investors not sold their shares that day, at levels of R481, they would have made a small fortune; between then and July 23, when the stock hit a lifetime high of R718.90, it ran up some 50%. Such an appreciation in stock values is rare and happened only because Unilever said, in April, it was willing to buy out all minority shareholders in HUL at R600 apiece leaving only a float of 25% to comply with listing norms. But the fact is that those who stayed invested made good money.
Analysts and advisory firms are always quick to point out that MNCs pay out too much royaltythey argue that these are made at rates that are faster than those at which the companys sales and profits are growing. To suggest that companies of the size of an HULrevenues in FY13 were R27,003 croreshould be growing at the same pace at which royalties are paid out; R392.3 crore in FY13 doesnt seem rational. Maruti Suzuki, for instance, turns in revenues of close to R45,000 croreR43,588 crore in FY13 when it paid out royalties of R2,454 croreand to expect the company will keep up the sales momentum on such a high base is simply being too demanding.
Especially since, except for some brief periods, these stocks have not really disappointed investors in the long run; over the two decades between March 1991 and now, the HUL scrip has given shareholders a return of 5,000%, stupendous compared to what the rest of the market has donethe Sensex returned approximately 1,100%. Indeed, shareholders had little reason to complain because MNCs typically hand out generous dividends; HULs average payout over the last 15 years, for instance, has been upwards of 80% at 84%few Indian companies match thiswhile the return

Onomastic Puns
Rennick, Robert M., Word Ways
By far the most popular form of word play is the pun. Linguists who prefer big words call this paronomasia. What it boils down to is a word, phrase, or idiomatic expression with more than one meaning, or two words with the same sound but different meanings. The humor comes when you expect a word to mean something but it turns out unexpectedly to mean something else. Many personal names also lend themselves to puns. The simplest kind is the punning definition: Smithereens = little pieces of someone named Smith, reported by John Bailey in "Definitions That May Be Right Or May Not" in the Oct 31 1953 Saturday Evening Post.
Historically, name puns can be traced to classical times, certainly to the Scriptures. As the 19th century British folklorist Mark Antony Lower pointed out, one of the first puns was inflicted by Jesus on his disciple Simon by calling him Peter (meaning "rock") and affirming that "upon this rock will I build my church."
One of the most prolific personal name punsters was the famed Kentucky newspaperman George D. Prentice. Sprinkled throughout his Louisville Journal for nearly 30 years were short paragraphs of satiric humor, based on news accounts from other papers; many made fun of anti-Whig politicians, his own particular butts. In 1860 many of them were compiled in a privately printed volume, Prenticeana (or Wit and Humor in Paragraphs). Here are some of the best:
* Rhode Island has declined to re-elect Dutee J. Pearce to Congress. She has discharged her dutee.
* A gentleman killed himself in Florida for the love of a Miss Bullit. The poor fellow could not live with a Bullit in his heart.
* Mr. William Hood was robbed near Corinth, Alabama. The Corinth paper says that the name of the highwayman is unknown, but there is no doubt that he was a robbin' Hood.
* Mr. John Love of Alabama was recently lost during a passage from Texas to Mexico. We had supposed that no love would ever be lost between those countries.
* In a recent criminal trial in Texas, a certain General Rule took it in high dudgeon because he was challenged by the Commonwealth's attorney. The sensitive gentleman ought to have remembered that there are exceptions to all Rules.
* James Ray and John Parr have started a locofoco paper in Maine called the Democrat. Parr, in all that pertains to decency, is below Zero, and Ray is below Parr.
* A friend sends us a letter of General Pillow which he asks us to notice. We have more important matters on hand. When we have disposed of them, we may attend to the Pillow case.
* Bill English got up a bad substitute for a good bill. We hope that his constituents will at their next election get up a good substitute for a bad Bill.
* Mr. Brown, editor of the St. Louis Democrat, was married a few days ago to a very beautiful and accomplished young lady, Miss Mary Gunn. May their wedded life be happy, and may a little "son of a Gunn" rise up to bless them.
* A woman in Florida named Cross lately gave birth to an infant son which weighed only one pound. That Cross wasn't hard to bear.
* Old Rough and Ready has proved himself a first rate Taylor. He always gives his Mexican customers fits.
Prentice may be best remembered for telling us about Kentucky Congressman William J. Graves who killed Maine Congressman Jonathan Cilley in a duel in Maryland on February 4, 1838. Graves' second was Henry A. Wise, a Virginia Congressman and fellow Whig. Prentice thought the affair was simultaneously grave, wise and silly.
A close second among 19th century name punsters, though not as outrageous and certainly not as original, was Mark Antony Lower. From literary sources personally known to him came many of the puns that are still shared in punning sessions throughout the English-speaking world. The best are found in his book English Surnames: An Essay on Family Nomenclature (London, 1875). …

Ukraine says Russia helping destroy crash evidence
The Associated Press
Wildflowers are placed on a plane engine at the crash site of a Malaysia Airlines jet near the village of Hrabove, eastern Ukraine, Saturday, July 19, 2014. World leaders demanded Friday that pro-Russia rebels who control the eastern Ukraine crash si

KIEV, Ukraine (AP) -- Ukraine accused Russia on Saturday of helping separatist rebels destroy evidence at the crash site of a Malaysia Airlines plane shot down in rebel-held territory with 298 people onboard.

 The government in Kiev said militiamen have removed 38 bodies from the crash site in eastern Ukraine and have taken them to the rebel-held city of Donetsk. It says the bodies were transported with the assistance of specialists with distinct Russian accents.

 The rebels are also "seeking large transports to carry away plane fragments to Russia," the Ukrainian government said in a statement.

 The plane flying from Amsterdam to Kuala Lumpur with citizens from 13 nations was shot down Thursday afternoon in eastern Ukraine close to the Russian border in an area that has seen months of clashes between government troops and pro-Russia separatists.

 Ukraine called on Moscow to insist that the pro-Russia rebels grant international experts the ability to conduct a thorough, impartial investigation into the downing of the plane - a demand that President Barack Obama also issued a day earlier from Washington.

 "The integrity of the site has been compromised, and there are indications that vital evidence has not been preserved in place," Malaysian Transport Minister Liow Tiong Lai said at a news conference Saturday in Kuala Lumpur.

 He called for immediate access for Malaysia's team at the site to retrieve human remains.

 An international delegation visited the crash site Friday evening but was only allowed to view one small portion. While the delegation was leaving under orders from armed rebel overseers, two Ukrainian members lingered to look at a fragment of the plane, prompting a militiaman to fire a warning shot in the air with his Kalashnikov.

 Daniel Baer, the U.S. ambassador to the Organization for Security and Cooperation in Europe, complained that what he called "Russian proxies" in Ukraine had failed to give investigators safe access to the site and tampered with the evidence there.

 Ukraine said it has passed along all information on developments relating to Thursday's downing to its European and U.S. partners

 Obama, disclosing that one American was among those killed, called the downing of the plane "a global tragedy."

 "An Asian airliner was destroyed in European skies filled with citizens from many countries, so there has to be a credible international investigation into what happened," he said.

 At an emergency meeting of the U.N. Security Council, the U.S. pointed blame at the separatists, saying Washington believes the jetliner carrying 298 people, including 80 children, likely was downed by an SA-11 missile and "we cannot rule out technical assistance from Russian personnel."

 Both the White House and the Kremlin have called for peace talks in the conflict between Ukrainian government forces and Russian-speaking separatists who seek closer ties to Moscow. Heavy fighting took place Friday less than 100 kilometers (60 miles) from the crash site, with 20 civilians reported killed.

 Malaysia Airlines, meanwhile, said Saturday it has no immediate plans to fly the relatives of the 298 passengers and crew killed in the downing to visit the site in Ukraine because of security concerns.

 A spokesman for the airline says next of kin are being cared for in Amsterdam while a team from the carrier, including security officials, was in Ukraine assessing the situation Saturday.

 In the Netherlands, travelers flying out of Amsterdam's Schiphol Airport laid flowers and signed a condolence book before boarding their flights Saturday, including those on the latest Malaysia Airlines Flight 17 to Kuala Lumpur.

Platinum Diamond Engagement Rings
For modern brides who are looking for a wedding ring that can be both wearable and uniquely beautiful, perhaps these styles that we're showing here can make excellent choices or alternatives. The type of metal one chooses for the wedding ring or band is one of the most important elements or aspects that are able to change completely the appearance, design and functionality of the ring.
<-336×280 Large Rectangle – center->
Each type of metal that is available out there for wedding rings and bands has its own properties, specific features or qualities. For example, the yellow gold metal is, besides the most precious type of metal, the most glamorous, classic, authentic, symbolical and strident or eye-catchy metal. The white gold is considered the most popular and modern type of metal for both engagement rings and wedding rings.
The rose gold is famous for its romantic pinkish lustrous look. The titanium and tungsten are hypoallergenic metals that are recommended for practical couples. The platinum metal is one of the strongest metals and also the most resistant, durable and practical metals that are usually recommended for busy and socially more active brides and grooms. We have many other articles written on this subject that you should look for on our website. You will get the chance to learn more about this type of metal and also to see various designs so that you can choose the most adequate one for you.
These precious platinum diamond engagement rings that we've posted here can make fabulous choices for both modern and classic brides, although we believe they are more adequate for the contemporary brides who want something sophisticated, versatile and unique. The platinum metal is one of the best competitors that the precious white gold has! Just as the white gold, the platinum metal is considered one of the trendiest and modern types of metals that a bride or a groom can choose for her/his wear.
There are couples who decide to opt for the white gold ring style because it is more precious, highly qualitative and expensive, and couples who choose platinum for a more affordable type of ring. Besides the price criterion that separates these two white types of metals, it seems that the comfort, practical and resistance factor are other qualities that make the platinum metal a more desired and appreciated alternative for many modern brides and grooms. These platinum diamond engagement rings can make beautiful selections for both active and relatively inactive brides.11

The author has had extensive experience in treating patients, as well as in teaching students in psychotherapeutic technics. The book is an outstanding example of organization and systematic presentation of a subject that is generally difficult to reduce to a workable classification. The author's viewpoint is not primarily that of the orthodox ego-psychiatrist, but is highly colored by a mechanistic behavioristic point of view with emphasis on conditioning as a most potent factor in determination of human reactions.
The author starts with five basic premises regarding human behavior. These are as follows: (1) that the organism seeks a point of equilibrium between itself and its environment (homeostasis); (2) that the person is incomplete and must therefore seek completion in relation with others; (3) that the organism responds as a whole to any stimulus no matter where applied; (4) that concepts of causality or event sequences must be broadened in order

Lens for Lumix G5: X Vario PZ 14-42mm vs. Standard 14-42mm
I have decided to buy a secondhand G5 as, sadly, the G6 is out of my budget for my upcoming travelling trip. I would like advice on whether I should invest in the more expensive power zoom 14-42mm lens as I have read some mixed reviews online and I can't seem to track down a direct comparison. Is it worth the extra money and what will I actually gain?
If anyone has had experience I would be really grateful as a self-confessed camera amateur!

The Politics Column: Blair Says His NHS Reforms Are Bearing Fruit-And So They Are, for Investors in PFI Schemes and for Overseas Companies with Risk-Free Contracts
Pollock, Allyson, New Statesman (1996)
According to Patricia Hewitt the NHS has had its best year ever. So why is the Royal College of Nursing threatening industrial action over cuts and closures, and why did the annual conference of Unison, traditional Labour supporters, greet the secretary of state with heckling? In her words, "the NHS must modernise or die". So why, from Surrey to Manchester and from Gateshead to Shropshire, are local people banding into hospital action groups and "Keep our NHS public" campaigns in an effort to defend the health service? The chief targets for cuts are mental health services, palliative care, older people's care and emergency hospital care, yet Hewitt maintains, to general derision, that quality will not be affected.
The government says the NHS's deficits for the year just ended total [pounds sterling]600m-[pounds sterling]800m out of an [pounds sterling]80bn budget and blames them on greedy doctors and nurses and bad local management. This is dishonest. Pay accounts for 60-70 per cent of NHS hospital budgets, but pay awards accounted for less than 30 per cent of the new money and should have been absorbed easily. Nor was greed involved; the increases returned NHS pay to previous levels after years of pay freezes. The hourly rate of the lowest-paid rose initially from [pounds sterling]5.16 to [pounds sterling]5.67 an hour; medical consultants got increases of 4-5 per cent a year, taking them to averages of between [pounds sterling]75,000 and [pounds sterling]95,000, while managers--their numbers swollen by the complications of marketisation--got 7.5 per cent more last year.
The real reason for the decision to axe in excess of 13,000 clinical staff and 1,000 NHS beds, plus associated services, is market-oriented reforms such as "choose and book", "payment by results" and foundation hospitals. Hospitals and services are required to behave like stand-alone companies, competing with each other and private corporations for income and patients. But their ability to balance the books is undermined by a requirement for primary care trusts--through whose hands 80 per cent of all NHS funding passes--to transfer 15-20 per cent of their budgets away from NHS hospitals and NHS primary care providers to for-profit, and usually multinational, healthcare corporations. The government plans to hand over most of the NHS budget to the private sector through "practice-based commissioning". Under this policy, local primary care trusts will eventually contract with for-profit companies such as the US-owned UnitedHealth Europe--whose president is Simon Stevens, Tony Blair's former health policy adviser--to provide GP services, transferring to it the 80 per cent of the NHS budget for all health services currently spent by primary care trusts. …

So I'm goofing off on the internet looking at tandem ads for a friend and his wife interested in buying a tandem and I find this among the ads.
I'll post a link and also copy the text so when the ad expires it will still contain the content.
The best part is the asking for a photo of the legs.
Thought some might get a laugh from it.
The original text cut and pasted in italics below (if this is not allowed please remove it, obviously all whatever rights belong to either craigslist or the poster)
"Looking for female co rider to take up rear station on my fine Nashbar tandem bike, bike riding experience(you got to be able to balance at least) helpful if not necessary, being at least somewhat athletic is pretty much a given. eventual relationship desirable but a co rider only position is possible. Long term ridership might build eventual equity in bike. Real hard core female cyclist may be a bit too much ( obsessions in other fields of interests might be better tolerated) but will be considered. Some kind of workable relationship priceless. Picture of legs might be useful in evaluating prospects riding potential."

Sara Pastoriza L. V. is 53 years old. She is married and lives with her husband in the Guaranda area of Bolívar province. She has 7 children: 2 are married, 2 are grown up but still single, 2 are in high school, and the youngest is a little boy.
Sara is a member of the Patrón San Juan communal bank, which is located half an hour from Guaranda. There are 16 members in total, most of whom work growing potatoes and maize. This is the first loan they have taken with the [field partner] San José Co-operative.
Sara works in agriculture, growing potatoes, wheat, barley, beans and peas. She sells them, and buys what she needs, in Guaranda.
She is seeking the loan to plant potatoes: to buy the seed potatoes, fertilizers and manure, and to pay people to help her. Her dream is to have her own land and to pay for her children's studies. She is also concerned about her husband, who is battling illness.
Her 2 children who are at high school help her at work after school.

About Cooperativa San Jose
This loan is administered by
Cooperativa San Jose
, a 45,000-member credit union located high in the Andes Mountains of Ecuador's poorest province, Bolivar. They offer a unique loan called "Ventanillas Rurales" [Window to the Countryside], which uses a group guarantee but is an individual loan with a savings component, mostly to rural borrowers. Due to low savings rates and a history of macroeconomic instability, many traditional loans in Ecuador demand interest rates that are prohibitively high for some borrowers. There is also a high incidence of extortionist black-market lending in Ecuador. CSJ helps mitigate these problems by

Coachella is here, kicking off a huge summer of live music from some of the biggest bands in the world.
But while we all know which headliners to hold on for, who else should fans catch on the bill? Last.fm Trends takes a look.
Obviously Coachella's huge lineup contains more than enough music to satisfy any taste (with the exception of a few jazz fans). But while fans of Radiohead, The Black Keys and Dr. Dre might know all the lyrics to Snoop Dogg's "Drop It Like It's Hot" there are probably a few niche acts who could slip under the radar.
Fans of Radiohead's more electronic material might enjoy Amon Tobin's sample-heavy set, or the eclectic chaos of Oberhofer, whose "Away Frm U" is a fan-favorite. Those of you into the bouncier side of Radiohead might enjoy Miike Snow, whose new album Happy To You is performing well among Last.fm listeners.
Meanwhile The Black Keys have been gaining fans steadily over the last year, and could deliver a defining set on Saturday. If you're into them then Destroyer and Other Lives could well drop perfect sets for your taste. Manchester Orchestra's fans have a high crossover too, and their track "I Can Feel A Hot One" has been a solid favorite throughout the year.
And rap seems to be pretty well served by this year's lineup too. Childish Gambino has been tearing up listener charts at Last.fm, and he'll only continue that after his set on Saturday. Breakout star Azealia Banks is likely to be on form too, as the "212" singer boasts one of the fastest-rising fanbases of 2012 so far, as well as the hazier lyrics of Kendrick Lamar, whose "A.D.H.D." sits on top of his listeners' playlists. All of that comes ahead of Dr. Dre's headline set on Sunday.

Locarno Festival Sets Slate for 57th Year
by Wendy Mitchell
Festival organizers have announced the lineup for the 57th edition of the Locarno International Film Festival, which will be held in the Swiss town from August 4-14. The fest will show hundreds of films, with a whopping 91 titles just in the retrospective "Newsfront." That program explores the relations between film and journalism and will include a short film from 1899 up through 2004 faves "Control Room" and "The Hunting of the President."
The 18 films in the international competition, vying for cash prizes and the festival's Golden and Silver Leopard prizes for directing, producing, and acting, are all international or world premieres. The competition includes Zak Tucker's Tribeca Film Festival hit "Poster Boy" (U.S.), Catarina Ruivo's "Andre Valente" (Portugal), Anurag Kashyap's "Black Friday" (India), Ian Gabriel's "Forgiveness" (South Africa), Toe Yuen's animated "McDull, Prince De La Bun" (Hong Kong), Gotz Spielmann's "Antares" (Austria), and others from across the globe.
The video competition will include Sundance's controversial mockumentary "CSA: The Confederate States of America" by Kevin Wilmott; Sundance award winner "Down to the Bone" by Debra Granik; Jan Nemec's "Landscape of My Heart" from the Czech Republic; the Lebanese-French co-production "Conversation De Salon, 1-2-3" by Danielle Arbid; Italian feature "About the House" by Jacopo Gassman; and more.
The Filmmakers of the Present section features both 35mm and video formats. Films include stunt documentary "Cesky Sen" (Czech Dream) by Vit Klusak and Filip Remunda, Ondi Timoner's band doc "Dig!," Neil Young's "Greendale," Diego Lerman's Argentine feature "Guerra de Los Gimnasios," Robert Greenwald's "Uncovered: The War on Iraq," Zak Penn's Seattle winning Werner Herzog doc "Incident at Loch Ness," Eugene Green's French film "Le Pont Des Arts," and Gen Sekiguchi's "Survive Style 5+," among others.
The catch-all Piazza Grande program includes anything from the 1976 classic "All the President's Men" to the world premiere of Patrice Leconte's latest film, "Dogora," to Nick Cassavetes' romance "The Notebook." Locarno 2004 will open with "Les fautes d'orthographe," a French drama by Jean-Jacques Zilbermann starring Carol Bouquet and Olivier Gourmet; and Japanese animated film "Applessed" will close the event.
Dozens of Swiss films will play in various sections including the Leopards of Tomorrow New Swiss Talents section of 21 short features. The Leopards of Tomorrow, which this year is devoted to French-language works, will recognize short- and medium-length films by young indie directors or film students.
Swiss films are also shown in the Swiss Cinema Rediscovered section, with restored works from the 1940s, and the Appelations Suisse 2004 section, with 11 recent Swiss docs and narratives.
Tributes this year include the Leopard of Honor for Italian filmmaker Ermanno Olmi ("Il Posto," "The Tree of Wooden Clogs.") The Raimondo Rezzonico award for independent producer of the year will go to Karl Baumgartner of Pandora Film, who has worked with filmmakers including Kim Ki-duk, Jim Jarmusch, Aki Kaurismaki, and Emir Kusturica.
The festival will pay tribute to the late Marlon Brando with a screening of Gillo Pontecorvo's 1969 film "Quiemada" (Burn!). The Open Doors program is this year devoted to films from the Mekong Delta (Vietnam, Cambodia, and Laos). A Human Rights program and panel will include multiple festival-award-winner "Born Into Brothels" as well as Israeli doc "Garden," and a South African film about Nelson Mandela, marking the 10th anniversary of South Africa's first democratic elections.

Whither the Criminal Court: Confronting Stops-and-Frisks
Zeidman, Steven, Albany Law Review
Two recent cases from one of New York's intermediate appellate courts suppressed evidence based on illegal searches, (1) and, given the present stop-and-frisk controversy, immediately became headline news. The New York Times ran a front-page story (2) and the New York Post printed an editorial titled "Next stop: Anarchy." (3) In federal court in Manhattan, a judge granted class-action status to a lawsuit challenging the New York City Police Department (NYPD) stop-and-frisk practice, and commenced a trial to determine whether the NYPD was adhering to constitutional search and seizure requirements. (4) The New York Times article even declared that judges were "the most potent critics" of stop-and-frisk practices. (5) These decisions, and the attention they garnered, suggest that New York courts are immersed in stop-and-frisk litigation. (6) That is hardly the case. The timely decisions rendered by the federal court and the state appellate court on this contentious subject actually point to a larger issue--the invisibility and willful irrelevance of the New York City Criminal Court, the first-tier trial court. (7)
While many have critiqued the NYPD, its Commissioner, and the Mayor for the plague of rampant stops-and-frisks that impact young men of color in disproportionate and disturbing numbers, (8) few have turned their attention to the role of the criminal court. One would expect, or at least imagine, that in a city with more than 685,000 stops-and-frisks per year, (9) there would be innumerable suppression hearings with police officers called to testify under oath about what they did and why they did it. This is precisely the role imagined for the criminal court by the U.S. Supreme Court when it established the exclusionary rule for Fourth Amendment violations. (10) The Court determined that exclusion, or suppression, of the evidence was necessary in order to deter police officers from violating constitutional rights and performing unreasonable searches and seizures. (11)
However, suppression hearings in the criminal court are few and far between. (12) Just as the criminal court's longstanding and overarching emphasis on efficiency and plea bargains trumps trials and meaningful determinations of guilt or innocence, (13) it also ignores, if not abhors, suppression hearings and careful examinations of the legality of everyday police conduct on the street. By abdicating its critical oversight role, the criminal court effectively shields police behavior from any meaningful external review or accountability and allows and encourages rampant stops-and-frisks to continue unabated. (14)
The criminal court's missing-in-action status on the policing issue of the day is all the more egregious when the NYPD's stops-and-frisks are examined through a constitutional lens. The very use of the phrase "stop-and-frisk" implies that the practice employed by the NYPD is somehow condoned or imbued with legality by the Supreme Court through its landmark decision from 1968 in Terry v. Ohio. (15) Although street stops must be distinguished from street stops-and-frisks, the tension and controversy (16) surrounding both practices has generally been subsumed under the "stop-and-frisk" heading. That makes sense since street stops in general are viewed as authorized by the Court in Terry, the case that gave the Court's imprimatur to the practice now known as "stop-and-frisk." Given that Terry is offered by proponents of stop-and-frisk as providing constitutional cover for this controversial policing tactic, (17) it behooves all concerned to critically examine whether, and to what extent, that is truly the case. Put simply, did the Supreme Court in Terry mean to authorize more than 685,000 street stops in a single city in a single year?
In Terry, the Court wrestled with a seemingly basic question: what, if anything, can police do to a citizen when they don't have probable cause to arrest, but they suspect that something illegal is afoot? …

WOW you must have a humungous crock pot - I printed out as a 4-5 servings recipe and still there was no way I could have fit it all into my crock pot. Wasn't going to add the capsicum (sweet pepper) but also didn't add the onion or celery, due to DH's allergy problems and they would not have fitted in anyway. Only added 1 zuchinni and had to scale right back on the spinach (fresh), red cabbage, brocolli and fresh beans to 1/4 or 1/3 of specified amounts. Used 2 cups of fresh chicken consomme' and 1 cup of water and 1/2 kilo of skinned boneless chicken thighes and fresh oregano leaves torn and frozen corn kernels. DM said it was a thin stew, not a soup but we enjoyed - thank you MrsSPheonix, will make again but scale it back to 3 or less serves to fit the my crock pot. What I did cook I think could have fed 6 to 8 people as a meal with crusty bread (maybe original recipe could be changed to 12 to 16 serves). Made for Recipe September #9 - October 2007.
I loved this. After reading the other reviews, I cut all the ingredients in half as to fit in my crockpot. I did however use 4 chicken breasts. Everything fit but barely. My 4 yr old and myself were the only ones who finished their dinner. My husband is sick and my son's and husband aren't vege. eaters. I thought it was very good I ate 2 bowls. What do they know (their boys). Thanks MrsSPhoenix!
I have made this twice and have had to cut it down both times, and even use two crock pots!! I am tempted to try it without the chicken and use more seasoning! Next time I make it I will slim down the qty on each item so it all cooks in one pot. This veggie lover is thrilled to find this recipe!
This is so good! I used skinless chicken breasts and left out the cabbage and broccoli as my crockpot was too full to fit anymore in! Instead of corn kernals I stirred in a can of creamed corn, right at the end. This is very yummy, healthy and low-fat with skinless breasts.

Israeli officials order new elections to be held in largest Arab city in March
Israel has ordered a re-vote in two municipal elections, including one in the country's largest Arab city, to be held in March after close and fradulent elections resulted in mixed results from October polls, according to Agence France Presse Tuesday.
Israel's high court has ordered that the residents from the city of Nazareth must vote for a second time in a fresh election after incumbent mayor Ramez Jaraiseh beat his counterpart, Ali Salem by a total of nine votes in an October poll, said AFP.
The court has also ordered that the residents of Beit Shemesh hold new elections after "wide-scale fraud"--where fake I.D. cards were issued to individuals to vote--allegedly led to the reelection of Sephardi ultra-Orthodox Shas party member, Moshe Abutbul.
The elections will likely take place on March 11, according to the Interior Ministry.
Nazareth is the capital of the Galilee region where 65 percent of its population of 82,000 identifies as Muslim and the remaining 35 identify as Christian.
In Beit Shemesh, most of the 80,000 residents identify as Orthodox Jews and the city has become notorious for religious clashes and strict gender segregation.
