The United Way of Perry County has been helping individuals and families in our community for over 40 years by funding organizations that provide services focused on health, education and financial stability.
VNA Plus (formerly known as Visiting Nurse Association) is one such agency that began serving the health care needs of Perry County residents in 1979, in large part as a result of United Way funding.
Recently I read an article by Marlin Betts and in this article he went on to share his views on the state's proposed amendment to ban same-sex marriage. He is not alone with his views, as they are shared by many in this country who feel that gay marriage goes against their religious beliefs, and wish to uphold the country's "Christian moral standards."
During the 2012-13 school year, St. Paul Ministry of Charity aided many children by supporting the Perry County Weekend Food Backpack Program in our county. This program supplies food over the weekend for children who come from homes where food is not always available to them. Nearly 3,400 weekend backpacks were distributed to 110 students from the three county schools last year.
Catholic Charities continues to help the poor and vulnerable in our area by creating hope and providing help for those in need. We have several programs in place to help those requesting our services:
On behalf of the Perry County Museum and the Perry County Marine Corps., I would like to thank the following sponsors for their support of the Semper Five 5K and the Marine Tough 10K:
TELL CITY – Tell City's annual Christmas parade is set for 4 p.m. Saturday and will be preceded by Christmas in the Park events in City Hall Park from 2 to 4 p.m.
Activities in City Hall Park will include visits with Santa, cookies, caroling and a chili cook-off.
Lineup for the parade will begin at 3 p.m. in the Tell City High School parking lot off of Tell Street.The parade will follow its traditional route along Tell and Main streets. For more information, call Brian Melton at 549-5144 or the visitors bureau at 547-7933.
United Way of Perry County would like to take this opportunity to thank the youth, youth-group leaders and various businesses and agencies of the community for taking part in this year's successful Youth Day of Caring Nov. 3.
Youth groups joined forces to paint, wash windows, rake, clean, weed, clean landscaping, construct the new Born Learning Trail and clear trails at designated locations across the county. The free labor provided by our volunteers saved our local nonprofit organizations many maintenance dollars and numerous hours of valuable time.
After reading Tim Kloeppel's column on same sex marriage (Monday's News), I was somewhat amused, but I also felt a great sadness. Mr. Kloeppel uses the analogy "Try to force the positive ends of two batteries together and let me know how successful you are at making them stick."
I found this analogy to be somewhat amusing. I assure you that I can take the positive end (anode) of one battery, touch it to the negative end (cathode) of another battery and they will not "stick" either.
There are many that are still struggling, even a year after the loss of a loved one or friend.
They are still searching for answers and wanting to know. Some even feel they're to blame or they should have been there. Depression is the most common reason for suicide, along with issues in life such as divorce, loss of jobs, the way people treat others, and a break-up of a relationship.
On Oct. 24, our 68th annual Fall Festival enjoyed a tremendous turnout from students, staff and community supporters. Cannelton Elementary's Parent-Teacher Organization would like to thank the following individuals and businesses for helping make this year's festival a huge success.

Muriel Agnes, MAEd., PhD.
Muriel Agnes is an educator and auricular acupuncturist. Her PhD (Energy Medicine, 2002) dissertation focused on the international use and experience of the Vascular Autonomic Signal, and a clinical trial that proved the reliability and validity of the VAS. Muriel also has a Masters of Adult Education from St. Francis Xavier University in Nova Scotia (1987).
Since attending the International Conference on Auricular Medicine in Las Vegas in 1999, Dr. Agnes has apprenticed with several doctors of Auricular Medicine. She brought Dr. Beate Strittmatter to North America in 2003 to teach Auricular Medicine, and was then mentored in teaching the curriculum used by the German Academy of Auricular Medicine by Dr. Strittmatter and Dr. Peter Gross.
Muriel's involvement in Sheng Zhen Qigong began about the same time, with trainings in Toronto and then Manila. Her love of this form of healing, and of Master Li, prompted her to become a certified teacher in Sheng Zhen and to bring Master Li to Nova Scotia to train practitioners in this part of the world.
Besides establishing and developing Vital Principle Institute as a continuing education school for health practitioners, Muriel contracts as an Instructor in adult education with the University of Manitoba.
Dave Maybee, RMT
Dave Maybee has been a practicing massage therapist since 2008, and auricular acupuncturist since 2005. At his clinic in Antigonish, NS he integrates myofascial release and energy work into his treatments, as he believes fully in a whole system approach to healing, incorporating the body and the mind. Dave has been involved with Vital Principle Institute (VPI) since 2005, when he completed his Level II training in German Auricular Medicine. Since then he has been practicing and teaching the medicine, and in 2012 became the lead Instructor for the VPI training program.
"When I treat patients I take my time to find out what the deepest blockages are to their healing, and work with them on many levels to move through these blockages. This is the true way to healing, and German Auricular Medicine opens the doors that allow us to reach these blockages and clear them. "Disease" is really a result of stressors on our system. Once we lift them, our bodies and our minds have the innate ability to heal itself."Dave Maybee, RMT
Lisa Weleschuk, TCMD, RAc.
Lisa Weleschuk is a registered Acupuncturist, currently practicing in Calgary, Alberta. In 2006, she graduated from of the Alberta College of Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, where she received diplomas in Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine, as well as from the University of Beijing for studies completed in China. She started her journey with German Auricular Medicine in 2007, after attending a course on Auricular with Dr. Beatte Strittmatter. Her amazement and fascination with this medicine brought her to complete her Level 2 Certification with VPI in 2010.
In her practice, as well as incorporating German Auricular Medicine, Dr. Lisa works with body acupuncture, TCM and herbs, esoteric acupunture, and has a great focus on the mental-emotional, which she believes is essential for the body to heal.
Mark Volmer
Mark Volmer has been studying the healing arts since 2005. He graduated with his diploma of acupuncture from MacEwan University in 2010 and promptly began continuing his education to uncover the most efficient modalities to treat chronic illness in therapy resistant patients.
Mark currently practices out of his clinic in Cochrane, Alberta where he combines German Auricular Medicine, Laser Therapy, and Functional Medicine.
Paul Maybee
The key lecturer for the Low Level Laser Therapy courses is Paul Maybee, a well known part of the VPI team, an expert resource in the field of LLLT, and Director of Kingfisher Distributing. Paul comes to this field of laser therapy from a background of music, sound engineering and physics. Bringing his own research and knowledge about LLLT, and his skill as an educator, Paul deftly develops and presents the content of LLLT courses and workshops to meet the needs of practitioners.
Beate Strittmatter, M.D.
Dr. Beate Strittmatter is a German medical doctor whose practice emphasis is on pain management through acupuncture. In 1985, Dr. Strittmatter became a lecturer, and later the Director of Education, with the German Academy for Acupuncture and Auriculomedicine. She has published widely (numerous articles, 2 textbooks for MDs, an interactive computer-learning program) and has been instrumental in developing the methods of focus diagnosis practiced today in the field of auricular therapy.
Dr. Strittmatter has published her Pocket Atlas for Ear Acupuncture (2003) in English, and a second book, Identification and Treatment of Blockages to Healing (2004). These books, and Dr. Strittmatter's engaging teaching style, now make this medicine as it is practiced in Europe accessible to North American health practitioners.
Dr. Strittmatter is a board member of the ACI (Acupuncture Certification Institute, Los Angeles) and teaches in Germany and Switzerland. Teaching with Vital Principle Institute is an avenue through which she is bringing her work in Auricular Medicine to North America.

and has continued to attend further training in medical acupuncture in Germany, Switzerland and Austria, including training with Dr. Beate Strittmatter. This training also includes an annual weeklong international professional convention in Switzerland.
In 1996 Dr. Gross and his wife moved to Nova Scotia, where he has an acupuncture practice. He has been delighted to have the opportunity to assist Vital Principle Institute here in Nova Scotia in a medicine that he has found to be so clinically rewarding.
Rose Johnston, M.D.
Dr. Rose Johnston graduated in medicine in 1980 from the Dalhousie Medical School in Halifax. She worked as a family physician in rural practice for fifteen years, after which she refocused her practice for psychotherapy clients. In the mid-1990′s Dr. Johnston became ill with fibromyalgia, and began a deeper healing journey. This search led her to auricular medicine, qigong and homeopathy training, and to some of the best teachers of the world in these fields, including visiting the clinic of Dr. Strittmatter in Germany in 2000.
Dr. Johnston returned to practice in psychotherapy, homeopathy and auricular acupuncture in 2000 after completing her training in homeopathy for medical doctors and her certification in auricular acupuncture. Dr. Johnston is also certified in psychosynthesis, transformational leadership, spiritual guidance and is certified as a teacher of Sheng Zhen Wuji Yuan Gong qigong by Master Li Jun Feng. In 2006, Dr. Johnston completed a medical residency in palliative medicine, and became certified in Imago relationship counseling.

"[CHAPPO's] music is fearless, innovative and downright fun, infusing classic indie pop with complete chaos, achieving their goal of making the Chappo experience one meant to be out of this world." – The Deli
Chappo (Majordomo Records/Shout! Factory) return to Cincinnati on Sunday. The psychedelic pop quartet, known to play in sequins and fire off confetti guns, play 20th Century Theatre with Monogold (Brooklyn, NY) and locals We Are Snapdragon.
The first time I saw Chappo was at a basement show in Clifton in winter 2009. The last time I saw them, they were touring with Of Montreal. The time before that, they were playing on a stage made up to look like a giant Doritos vending machine at SXSW. Needless to say, the band has had a long, weird ride.
Chappo recorded their self-released EP Plastique Universe in their living room. The single "Come Home" wound up on commercials for both iPod Touch and Progressive. After the release of their second EP, Plastic Universe II, the band signed to Shout! Factory's label Majordomo Records, home to The Airborne Toxic Event, The Von Bondies, and Jon Spencer Blues Explosion. Their debut full-length, Moonwater, was mixed by Hector Castillo (Beck, Bjork) and Steve Wall.
Chappo is playing 20th Century Theatre – sequins, confetti guns, and all – on December 9th in support of Moonwater. Catch Chappo's live Daytrotter session on Friday at 12pm.
Chappo w/ Monogold, We are Snapdragon

What to know what's in that souffle you had on Celebrity Summit or how to handle food allergies in the specialty restaurants on Azamara Quest? Or do you have a more general question about dining onboard today's cruise ships?
Jacques Van Staden, vice president of food and beverage for both Celebrity Cruises and Azamara Cruises, is at your service. As part of a Cruise Critic-exclusive Q&A, Van Staden will be answering questions this week on Cruise Critic's message boards -- starting today!
Van Staden began cooking at age 7 in his grandmother's kitchen before sneaking off to work at a French restaurant at age 14 -- while his father thought he was out playing rugby. It was in Washington, DC, that Van Staden began his career in earnest, working at storied restaurants and eventually opening his own; he was appointed to his role at Celebrity in 2007. (Click here for a more in-depth bio!)
To post your question -- or just say "hello" to our special guest -- visit the Q&A forum set up especially for this event, here. Be sure to start a new thread for your query (note: duplicate and similar questions will be merged so that Van Staden can answer as many as possible!).
Bon appetit!

Episode Description: Frank talks about healing by being a companion to grief in the course of losing ourselves and the ones we love rather than trying to manage grief by imposing maps on it. Being a companion means going towards the uninvited whether it be wild behavior or numbness as it manifests in our body and soul.
Bio : In 1987, Frank Ostaseski helped form the Zen Hospice Project, the first Buddhist hospice in America. In 2004, he created Metta Institute to broaden this work and seed the culture with innovative approaches to end-of-life care that reaffirm the spiritual dimensions of dying. A primary project of Metta Institute is the End-of-Life Care Practitioner Program that Frank leads with faculty members Ram Dass, Rachel Naomi Remen MD, and many others.
Frank is a dynamic, original, and visionary workshop leader. His public programs throughout the United States and Europe have introduced thousands to the practices of mindful and compassionate care of the dying.

This paper, based on the data of 48 countries and regions from 1999 to 2008, studies the economic and educational determinants of how countries of different types attract international students. The study finds that: the volume of merchandise trade between countries facilitates international student mobility across borders; international students from developing countries put the same weights on educational and economic factors for peer developing countries as potential destinations, while only economic factors are taken into consideration for developed countries as potential destinations. On the other hand, international students from developed countries often value educational factors more for developed countries as possible destinations, while equally weigh educational and economic factors for developing countries as possible destinations. Therefore, countries aiming to attract talents from other countries should pay more attention to attract international students and encourage them to seek working opportunities in local employment markets after finishing study.

Plump, fist-size tomatoes might be the stars of BLTs, Caprese salads, sauces and soups, but their wee cousins can be a cook's best friend, too.
Whether they're Sun Golds, Tumbling Toms or heirloom yellow pear or black plum, cherry tomatoes can play multiple roles beyond the salad bowl. Stuff them with herbed goat cheese for a quick appetizer. Sauté them with garlic and herbs in a skillet until their skins pop, then toss them with pasta.
And try slow-roasting them.
Chris Nugent, executive chef at Chicago's Goosefoot, roasts heirlooms before turning them into a richly flavored soup.
Chef and cookbook author Antony Worrall Thompson tosses roasted cherry tomatoes with pasta and pairs them with fish.
"Sacrifice some time in the name of simplicity," he writes in "The Essential Low Fat Cookbook: Good Healthy Eating for Every Day" (Kyle Books, $35), "because the roasting process really intensifies the tomato flavor."
That concentrated, caramelized flavor is one reason editors at Fine Cooking magazine suggest slow-roasting tomatoes in the book "Fine Cooking in Season: Your Guide to Choosing and Preparing the Season's Best."
They add them to pastas, sandwiches and salads or serve them alongside grilled meats. They suggest storing roasted tomatoes for a week in the refrigerator; longer in the freezer. And if there's any extra roasting oil, drizzle it on grilled vegetables or crusty bread.
If you don't have cherry tomatoes, roast plum tomatoes with this recipe adapted from Fine Cooking Magazine's "Fine Cooking in Season."
Halve through the stem end and seed 41/2 to 5 pounds of plum tomatoes. Heat the oven to 350 F. Line a 12-by-17-inch rimmed baking sheet with foil (then parchment if you have it). Coat the pan with 3 tablespoons of olive oil. Arrange halves in the pan, cut side up, turning to coat the bottoms with oil. Sprinkle sparingly with kosher salt, sugar and scant 1 tablespoon balsamic vinegar. Thinly slice 3 to 4 garlic cloves; arrange the slices over tomatoes. Sprinkle with fresh thyme. Pour 1 cup olive oil over it all. Roast in the center of the oven until the tomatoes are dark red-brown, with deep browning on edges. Cool. Serve warm or at room temperature. Store in refrigerator as much as a week or in a freezer bag up to a month.
Red Snapper With Roast Cherry Tomatoes, Garlic and Basil
Makes: 4 servings.
9 ounces each red cherry tomatoes and yellow cherry tomatoes
12 peeled garlic cloves
1 tablespoon olive oil
4 skinless snapper fillets (about 6 ounces each)
1 tablespoon drained tiny capers
1 tablespoon sherry vinegar
16 fresh basil leaves, torn
Salt and pepper to taste
Heat oven to 375 F. Put red cherry tomatoes and yellow cherry tomatoes in a bowl with peeled garlic cloves and olive oil. Season with salt and freshly ground pepper; toss to coat. Turn seasoned tomatoes into a roasting pan, place in oven and roast 25 minutes, stirring occasionally. Cut snapper fillets into 1-inch dice. Add fish pieces to tomatoes; season lightly. Roast another 10 to 12 minutes. Add tiny capers, sherry vinegar and basil leaves. Toss very gently to combine and wilt basil leaves; take care not to break up the fish. Serve immediately.
Roasted Heirloom Cherry Tomato Soup
Prep: 20 minutes. Cook: 1 hour. Servings: 6 (2 cups each).
Adapted from a recipe by Chris Nugent, executive chef at Goosefoot restaurant in Chicago. For roasting, drizzle the vegetables with more olive oil if you like.
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
2 Spanish onions, peeled, halved
4 pounds ripe heirloom cherry tomatoes, about 6 1/2 pints
6 cloves garlic
3/4 teaspoon coarse salt
Freshly ground pepper
1/4 cup fresh basil leaves
8 cups chicken or vegetable stock
6 ounces goat cheese
1 ounce aged balsamic vinegar
Heat oven to 375 F. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large, heavy-bottomed skillet over medium heat. Place onion halves cut-side down in skillet; cook until caramelized, 4 minutes on each side. Set aside 1/4 pound tomatoes (about 3/4 cup) for garnish. Place remaining tomatoes, the caramelized onions and garlic on 2 rimmed baking sheets; drizzle with remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil, or more as needed. Season with 1/2 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Roast in the oven, 30 minutes.
Place roasted tomatoes, onions, garlic, basil and chicken or vegetable stock in a large, heavy-bottomed saucepan; simmer, stirring occasionally, 30 minutes. Puree soup in a blender, in batches if necessary. Season with remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and pepper to taste. Cut reserved cherry tomatoes in half. Serve in warm soup bowls garnished with goat cheese, halved cherry tomatoes and a balsamic vinegar drizzle.

Community service is all part of the job for Ivette Taylor
Ameriprise Financier Ivette Taylor gives back to the community through the Lake Menifee Women's ...
Menifee resident and Ameriprise Financial Advisor Ivette Taylor has always considered community service as being a part of her business. As an advisor, her job is to help clients manage their assets and maintain a successful retirement through proper financial planning.
|Ameriprise Financier Ivette Taylor gives back to the
community through the Lake Menifee Women's Club,
the Women's Interest Network, and more.
Even though her career keeps her busy, she still finds time to give back. "As business owners, my husband and I were fortunate to find a wonderful Client Service Manager, Kamala Davis, who not only coordinates all our client meetings, but also makes sure that the schedule gives me time to volunteer," Ivette explained. "My mind operates on appointments, so volunteering becomes another commitment, and when I have an appointment, I keep it."
Volunteering is an act Ivette has been doing throughout most of her career, which began in 2005. Part of her goodwill is geared towards women's interests. "To me it's really important to promote and uplift women and our goals," she said.
Last year Ivette became the Inland Empire leader for the Ameriprise Women's Interest Network (WIN). "It's women in the industry coming together for their community," she explained. They have a national day of service that takes place on Nov. 18.
Aside from WIN, Ivette hosts annual luncheons for her female clients. "I take my successful female clientele to lunch as part of my service model within my practice," she said.
Each luncheon has a theme, and this year's was "Keeping Your Body Fit and Your Purse Fat." Ivette invited a cardiologist and a representative for the American Heart Association's "Go Red for Women" to discuss women's heart health. "I brought in a cardiologist to talk about this because more women die of heart disease than anything else," she said.
Outside of her career Ivette serves as treasurer for the Lake Menifee Women's Club. "Through this role as club treasurer, I've been able to marry my profession as a financial advisor with my service work," she said. "It was a good fit."
She joined the local women's club in 2009 in order to give back to the city that became her home three years ago. "I wanted to be able to do some charity and volunteer work," she said. Ivette has been treasurer since January of this year.
The women's club is a nonprofit organization where women team up to help out their community. They help put on Menifee's Annual Independence Day Celebration and make charitable donations each year, such as student scholarships, contributions to breast cancer foundations, support for local families in need of help with their medical expenses, and more. "It means a lot to me that the club has a mission of serving its community and promoting the interests of women," said Ivette.
One of her goals this year is to expand the club membership. "If we continue to grow we can do larger scale events and give more," she said.
Ivette and her husband are also members of the Menifee Chamber of Commerce, a place where they get to promote their work and learn about the

Finally Mariah and Nick reveal the names of their twins.
Monroe Cannon is their daughter's name. Moroccan Scott Cannon is their son's name…
Their son is named Moroccan Scott Cannon, with the nickname "Roc". Scott is Nick's middle name, as well as his grandmother's maiden name.
The top tier of Mariah's New York City apartment is called the Moroccan Room, because of the Moroccan-inspired decor. It's also the place where Nick proposed to his wife, overlooking Manhattan!
Their daughter's name is Monroe Cannon. Mariah's rep says she does not have a middle name because Mariah herself does not have one. Monroe was named after Marilyn Monroe, who has been an inspiration to Mariah her whole life.
I love them!! Good choices!
What you think?
Below are some pics of 'dem babies' nursery…
As Mariah told 'Life & Style' (on newsstands now)
"I wanted to create a beautiful, tranquil, cozy environment for the babies," Mariah tells Life & Style in an exclusive interview. "Everything matches, but pieces are individualized to celebrate the twins as separate entities."
The babies are bi-coastal and have elaborate nurseries both in L.A. & NY.

"It's clear now more than ever that Genesee County will need a strong voice in Lansing fighting for the middle-class," Ananich said Friday in a statement.
Ananich and state Rep. Woodrow Stanley, D-Flint, had said in November they were considering a run for the seat.
Gleason, D-Flushing, was elected Genesee County clerk/register Nov. 6, and said he plans to resign around Jan. 1.
A spokeswoman for Gov. Rick Snyder has said the governor intends to call a special primary election to fill the Senate seat after Gleason resigns.
The winner of the special election would serve out the remainder of Gleason's term, which expires in 2014.
Ananich said additional details about his campaign "will be announced soon."

I just read this news report on sabr, and I can't believe they actually reported this B.S.. What the hell has Kuwait to do with the falling of the Syrian regime? We, with all internal problematic turmoils, love our regime and stand 100% behind it.
This guy is stating, not predicting but actually stating, that the fall of the Syria regime ultimately means the fall of our Kuwaiti regime. That is a one huge loud of B.S. if I ever heard of such a thing.
Obviously, take all this with a huge grain of salt, [link].

The city of Chicago has begun addressing concerns about ridesharing services this week by subpoenaing Uber X, Lyft and Sidecar for information on insurance coverage for their drivers.
Rideshare companies, which enable users to request rides on their smartphones from nearby drivers, have faced pressure from the city in recent months over how rideshare programs should be regulated. The services contend they fall outside the same regulations as taxicab services because they act only as a way to connect riders and drivers.
While critics have questioned whether riders are protected by insurance in the event of an accident, Uber and Lyft have taken steps to protect their drivers by announcing insurance coverage for their drivers. The policy change comes after the city's request for insurance information, as well as in response to a fatal accident involving an Uber X driver in San Francisco.
But critics still question how coverage would function in the event of an accident, as many auto insurance policies do not cover commercial activity. The policies announced by Uber and Lyft would likely supplement a driver's policy, being used only if a claim has been filed and exhausted on a driver's individual insurance. The insurance would also cover incidents involving drivers in-between rides, which was the case for the accident in San Francisco.
Local taxicab companies have also been critical of the rideshare programs. Taxicab companies contend that rideshare services act within their industry but outside the same regulations, with rideshare services not needing $300,000 medallions to operate. The Chicago Dispatcher, a taxicab trade newspaper, published an editorial earlier this month threatening to expose five "secretly gay" aldermen if city council didn't ban ridesharing services by next month.
The city council in recent months has begun drafting a proposal that would require drivers to have a background check, training and an inspection of their vehicles. Some drivers have already encountered problems with local police and taxi administrators classifying the services as a public passenger service and therefore operating illegally, including a local reddit user driving for Lyft who had his car impounded and received a citation.
The city will undoubtedly address these and other questions within the coming months, and rideshare services will likely have to take steps to appease city council and protect its riders and drivers.

|(Lev 23:15, 19) On the first day remove the yeast from your houses, ... For seven days no yeast is to be found in your houses.
Why does God want to deal with yeast/leaven?
"Leaven represents the evil impulse of the heart (Berachot 17a)."
"Some Jewish thinkers see chametz, that which rises and becomes leaven as symbolically representing those tendencies in a man which arouse him to evil. They see the whole process of searching for the chametz and eliminating it as a reminder to man that he should search through his deeds and purify his actions. Mere renunciation of the imperfect past,

|one's own chametz, is not sufficient; it must be destroyed. (Mordell Klein, ed., Passover, Jerusalem: Keter Books, 1973, p. 38).
Leaven is seen as symbolic of sin. Leaven corrupts by puffing up. Puffing up or pride is at the heart of all sin. We all have evil impulses within us. We're not terrible wicked people, but we all have some tendencies which can arouse us or lead us into sin.
God tells us not to eat bread with leaven, but He also tells us we must remove it from our houses.
I looked up the word "remove" in the Thesaurus. It said:
Remove: evacuate, evict, move, oust, purge, relocate, take away
Just as no one wants to be evicted or ousted from their home, or any place they're at, sin will not want to leave. You must lay down the law, get tough, and force it to leave.
The Bible tells us to get rid of sins while they are small.
(1 Cor 5:6-8) Stop being proud! Don't you know how a little yeast can spread through the whole batch of dough? Get rid of the old yeast! Then you will be like fresh bread made without yeast, and that is what you are. Our Passover lamb is Messiah, who has already been sacrificed. So don't celebrate the festival by being evil and sinful, which is like serving bread made with yeast. Be pure and truthful and celebrate by using bread made without yeast.
There are times we do not remove sins, or stop doing what the Bible says is wrong (or sin), because we don't think it's serious, or big enough, to be harmful or wrong. But this is a BIG mistake. Sin is compared to leaven or yeast. When people bake and leave yeast out on the table it grows bigger. This is just like sin. It may start small, but it often gets bigger over time. Once this happens, it can be too late. If sin sets so big it might become too strong or powerful for us to deal with. Then, we can find ourselves in bondage to something that is big, and is harmful. We find ourselves in bondage because it's grown so strong we can no longer over power it.
This is the reason we need to remove and oust sin when it is still small. When it is small we have the ability to stop it, and oust it. During this Passover season I encourage you to remove leaven from your homes, and ask God if there is any leaven in your life that He wants you to oust as well.

In-camera sharpening?

In-camera sharpening?
Say that theoretically you had 2 point/shoot cameras, camera A and camera B, which produced exactly the same quality of .jpeg images but camera A's images were sharper.
If one applied sharpening in post to the images from B, wouldn't the images from both cams then be equal? It even seems that in effect, the less sharp B camera would have the advantage since you can always sharpen to suit. IOW, there's no real advantage to having the images sharpened on capture, other than the time which might be saved?

Recording and editing couldn't be easier; simply drag, drop, cut, copy or paste. Once your magnum opus is finished, share it with other "Tracktioneers" so they can listen, collaborate and edit.

Pecotic, Graff Advance in Pursuit of U.S. Open Bids
Two Princetonians had a strong showing over the last few days at Mercer County Park, with Matija Pecotic and Lindsay Graff combining to win the men's singles, women's singles and mixed doubles titles at the USTA Middle States tournament.
View the USTA Middle States Blog article on Pecotic and Graff here.
The two will advance to the U.S. Open National Playoffs in New Haven, Conn., August 16-19 for singles and August 21-24 for doubles, where they will play for bids in the U.S. Open.
Pecotic, who graduated from Princeton earlier this month, began play Saturday and won six straight matches over four days, taking all of them in straight sets and giving up more than three games in any set only once, winning the final over top-seeded Nikita Kryvonos 6-4, 6-2.
Graff, a rising junior, won five straight matches to claim the berth in New Haven, winning four of those in straight sets including a 6-2, 6-4 final win over 2012 Vanderbilt alumna Jacqueline Wu.
As a pair, Pecotic and Graff won four straight matches, all in straight sets. In the semifinals, Pecotic and Graff defeated Princeton tennis alumna Neha Uberoi '12 and former Princeton volunteer assistant coach Ilia Shatashvili 6-1, 6-1, and in the final, the Princeton pair beat Northwestern rising senior Veronica Corning and Penn rising senior Nikola Kocovic 7-6(7), 7-5.

Box Score
Game One Box Score in PDF Format
Game Two Box Score in PDF Format
DEKALB, Ill. - The Northern Illinois University freshman Stephanie Tofft extended her hitting streak to a school record 16 games as the Huskies split their doubleheader with Eastern Michigan Friday afternoon at Mary M. Bell Field.
Tofft, who tied the mark with a single to left field in the first game, kept the streak alive with a single to right in her final at bat of Game Two. The freshman from Lincoln, Calif. went 3-for-7 on the day with an RBI and run scored. Julie Stopka and Jill Justin previously held the NIU record with a 15-game hitting streak. Justin established the record in 1987 with Stopka last accomplishing the feat in 1997.
"Steph's an amazingly calm hitter," NIU head coach Lindsay Chouinard said. "She never really gets rattled even if she has a bad at bat, a couple bad swings in an at bat. She never flounders and never loses her confidence."
The Huskies (11-15, 1-1) won the first game, the Mid-American Conference opener for both teams, 8-6. NIU pounded out 12 hits and were aided by four Eastern Michigan (14-6, 1-1) errors to win its first MAC opener since 2009.
Northern Illinois jumped on top of the Eagles early with a three-run first inning to take a 3-0 lead. EMU answered with a run in the top of the second and another in the top of the third and the Huskies responded with a run in the bottom of the second and one in the bottom of the fifth to lead 5-2.
The Eagles mounted a rally in the top of the sixth with a two-run homer to right field to cut the deficit to 5-4. Northern Illinois added some insurance runs with a three spot in the bottom of the sixth to regain its three-run advantage. Those runs would be key as EMU would add two runs to cut the lead to two but that would be as close as the Eagles would get.
Adriana Sanchez (San Fernando, Calif./Alemany) and Andrea Colosimo (Orland Park, Ill./Sandburg) led the way for NIU in the victory. Colosimo was 2-for-3 with three runs batted in, while Sanchez was 2-for-4 with two RBIs. Alexandra Wulbecker (Hoffman Estates, Ill./Hoffman Estates) continues to contribute offensively going 2-for-3 with two runs scored.
Morgan Bittner (Long Beach, Calif./Long Beach Poly) picked up the win, allowing two runs, one earned, on seven hits in four innings pitched. Freshman Nicole Gremillion (Missouri City, Texas/Elkins) picked up her first collegiate save.
Eastern Michigan won the nightcap, 10-1.
"We did a good job of defending [the ball] and hitting when it mattered in the first game," said Chouinard. "We didn't get that timely hitting in the second game.
"We didn't beat Eastern last year, so 1-1 against them this year is better. We would have liked to have had two, but getting a win on the first day is really important."
NIU is back on the field Saturday when the Huskies host Central Michigan in a doubleheader. First pitch for Game One is scheduled for 2 p.m. Central Time. Fans can follow all the action live via Gametracker at NIUHuskies.com.

Communiqué of the International Monetary and Financial Committee of the Board of Governors of the International Monetary Fund
1. The International Monetary and Financial Committee held its sixth meeting in Washington, D.C. on September 28, 2002, under the Chairmanship of Mr. Gordon Brown, Chancellor of the Exchequer of the United Kingdom.
The Global Economy and Financial Markets
2. The Committee observes that the global economic recovery is proceeding, although at a slower pace than expected earlier this year. Growth is expected to strengthen in the near term, supported by a strong policy response across the international community. However, there remain downside risks and uncertainties, as well as medium-term challenges associated with persistent imbalances, underscoring the need for vigilance. IMF members should continue to be ready to adapt policies as necessary in order to foster broad and sustained growth, to strengthen policy and regulatory frameworks, and to support durable poverty reduction. The Committee underscores the importance of stability in oil markets at prices reasonable for consumers and producers.3. In the advanced economies, growth generally is expected to strengthen. However, monetary policy-makers should remain ready to respond to developments where necessary and to ease policy further if the risk of economic weakness intensifies and inflation prospects remain subdued. In Japan, monetary easing should help end deflation. In many countries, there is scope for automatic stabilizers to operate, but fiscal policy needs to be attentive to the medium term challenge of consolidation in order to ensure sustainable debt levels, improve the scope to respond flexibly to future economic shocks, and help address challenges such as those associated with population aging. Structural reforms should also be pursued vigorously to further improve growth prospects and strengthen resilience:
4. Performance in emerging markets has been mixed, reflecting both global developments and domestic circumstances. While growth in Asia has picked up strongly, several economies in Latin America in particular are facing a deterioration in conditions due to external developments, country-specific vulnerabilities and policy uncertainties. In countries that have room for maneuver, the policy stance should generally remain accommodative, but countries facing external financing difficulties will need to continue to give priority to restoring market confidence. The Committee welcomes Brazil's commitment to sound policies. It acknowledges the positive steps taken in recent months by Argentina to address its difficult economic situation, and urges the authorities, in cooperation with the Fund, to move quickly to reach agreement on a sustainable economic program that could receive the support of the international financial institutions and provide the basis for the reestablishment of stability and growth.
5. Many of the developing countries have also been affected by global developments and adverse movements in commodity prices, as well as domestic circumstances. The Committee reiterates the need for sustained international efforts to fight poverty. The Global Development Compact embodied in the Monterrey Consensus and the Doha Development Agenda-based on mutual accountability, country ownership, sound domestic policies and institutions, good governance, increased and more effective international support and commitment to an open multilateral trading system-was reaffirmed at the World Summit in Johannesburg. The Committee looks forward to the effective implementation, with international assistance, of the New Partnership for Africa's Development (NEPAD) to strengthen institutional foundations, governance, and infrastructure. Stressing the critical importance of technical assistance to support this effort, the Committee looks forward to the important contribution that the AFRITACs will play. It also calls for urgent international assistance to address the human and economic toll exacted by the drought in southern Africa. It also stresses the positive role of the CIS-7 initiative in improving prospects for enhanced growth and reduced poverty.
6. The Committee underscores the vital importance for global growth and effective development of achieving substantial trade liberalization in the Doha round of multilateral trade negotiations, which will benefit both developed and developing countries. Urgent progress is essential in enlarging market access for developing countries and phasing out trade distorting subsidies in developed countries. Developing countries should also further liberalize their trade regimes to maximize growth and development opportunities. Trade-related technical assistance is also important to support developing countries' capacity building.
Strengthening Crisis Prevention and Resolution
7. The Committee welcomes the Managing Director's report on the IMF in a Process of Change, which sets out the reforms underway to make the Fund more effective in promoting greater financial stability and stronger global growth, the progress which is being made, and the agenda for the period ahead.8. The Committee supports the steps taken by the Fund to improve the quality and effectiveness of its policy advice, and to help countries strengthen policy frameworks and prevent crises. These are the key priorities for surveillance. In particular, the Committee:
The Committee will review, at its next meeting, ways of further enhancing the effectiveness of Fund surveillance. It looks forward to further progress in the voluntary publication of country staff reports, building on the positive role that improved transparency and data dissemination by the Fund and its membership are playing in informing the public and supporting financial market assessments.
9. The Committee notes the substantial progress on the Financial Sector Assessment Program and the standards and codes initiative, including their increasing integration into Fund surveillance. It looks forward to the forthcoming reviews of these initiatives, and calls on the Fund to consider ways to build on this progress, together with the World Bank and relevant standard-setting bodies, to address gaps, strengthen technical assistance, and promote broader participation. The Committee notes the importance of enhanced standards and principles on corporate governance, accounting and auditing, and of stronger national practice. It also underscores the role that precautionary access to Fund financing can play in safeguarding sound policy frameworks in the face of uncertainty in international capital markets. The Committee looks forward to the forthcoming review of the Contingent Credit Lines.
10. The Committee endorses the Fund's continuing work on private sector involvement and a stronger framework for crisis resolution to provide members and markets with greater clarity and predictability, including about the decisions the Fund will take in crisis management. In particular, the Committee welcomes the work underway to strengthen the policy on exceptional access to Fund resources. This involves more clearly defined criteria to justify exceptional access, and strengthened procedures for early consultation and decision making. The priority now is to finalize and implement the new framework, and the Committee calls for a progress report by the Spring meetings.
11. The Committee strongly welcomes the progress made with the contractual and statutory approaches to restructuring unsustainable sovereign debts. It welcomes the ongoing dialogue on collective action clauses in the G-10 and other fora with private creditors and emerging market sovereign issuers. Going forward, the Committee encourages the official community, the private sector, and sovereign debt issuers to continue working together to develop collective action clauses, and to promote their early inclusion in international sovereign bond issues; in that regard, it welcomes the recent decision by many countries to include collective action clauses. The Committee also calls on the Fund to consider the issues further and to develop, for consideration at its next meeting, a concrete proposal for a statutory sovereign debt restructuring mechanism to be considered by the membership.
The Fund's Role in Low-Income Countries
12. The Committee supports the Fund's continuing role in helping poor countries address the challenge of meeting the Millennium Development Goals by supporting economic reforms aimed at accelerating growth and reducing poverty. It welcomes the increased momentum in countries' efforts to develop and implement their PRSPs, and the Fund's and donors' efforts to align their support more closely with PRSPs. It recognizes that there may be a need to consider mobilizing new PRGF resources if high demand for PRGF financing continues. The Committee stresses the importance of: sound macroeconomic frameworks that can respond flexibly to changes in the external environment; identifying ways to encourage higher and sustainable growth; good governance; improving public expenditure and financial management systems; and using poverty and social impact analysis more systematically, and building country capacity in this area. The Committee encourages the Fund and Bank to continue their collaboration on these issues and looks forward to reviewing progress. Furthermore, it looks forward to considering the results of the Fund's work to better meet the diverse needs of its low-income members, including those stemming from disruptive exogenous shocks and emergence from conflict.
13. The Committee welcomes the progress made on the HIPC Initiative, allowing countries to benefit from lower debt servicing and higher social spending. It recognizes that significant challenges remain to ensure that countries achieve a lasting exit from unsustainable debt. The Committee reaffirms the commitment to implement the initiative and finance it fully to help countries overcome the burden of unsustainable debt, and underscores that the HIPC Initiative has the flexibility to provide additional debt relief at the completion point to help countries that have suffered a fundamental change in their economic circumstances due to exceptional exogenous shocks. These elements, together with sustained commitment to sound economic policies—including efforts to improve resilience to external shocks, to manage debt prudently, and to reinforce good governance—and new financing on appropriately concessional terms, should provide a basis for long-term sustainability. The Committee notes that the financing shortfall in the HIPC Trust Fund could be up to $1 billion, and welcomes the recent pledges of support. It calls on other governments to make firm pledges and contributions as a matter of urgency. Furthermore, it urges all official and commercial creditors that have not yet done so to fully participate in the HIPC Initiative. The Committee acknowledges that the issues of HIPC-to-HIPC debt relief and creditor litigation raise serious issues that should be addressed.
Combating Money Laundering and the Financing of Terrorism
14. The Committee welcomes the actions taken by many countries to combat money laundering and the financing of terrorism, in response to the action plan agreed in Ottawa last year, and urges countries that have not fully responded to do so urgently. It also urges rapid progress on the exchange of information between authorities. The Committee commends the substantial progress made by the Fund, in close collaboration with the Bank, in advancing the action plan. It endorses the conditional addition of the Financial Action Task Force (FATF) recommendations to the list of standards and codes for which Reports on the Observance of Standards and Codes (ROSCs) are prepared, and looks forward to the final adoption of the methodology and an early start of the 12-month pilot program of assessments and accompanying ROSCs. The Committee encourages countries to make available additional experts and resources for the IMF/World Bank pilot program, welcomes the pledges made so far, and urges the IMF and World Bank to coordinate closely with the strong international and bilateral efforts to provide critically important technical assistance. The Committee looks forward to an interim report at its next meeting and a full report at the conclusion of the pilot program.
Other Issues
15. The Committee welcomes the adoption by the Fund's Executive Board of new guidelines on conditionality, thus bringing to a successful conclusion the review of conditionality initiated by the Managing Director two years ago. The consistent implementation of these guidelines will help enhance the effectiveness of Fund-supported programs by fostering national ownership and streamlining conditionality, focusing it on elements critical to the success of members' economic programs. The Committee stresses that strengthened collaboration with the World Bank is an integral part of these efforts to enable both institutions to provide complementary and effective support.
16. The Committee stresses the importance of the Fund having adequate resources to fulfill its financial responsibilities. Quotas should reflect developments in the international economy. The Committee notes that the Executive Board is continuing its consideration of the Twelfth General Review of Quotas and will present its report to the Board of Governors by January 2003. It recommends an early implementation of the Fourth Amendment.
17. The Committee welcomes the first report of the Independent Evaluation Office on "Prolonged Use of Fund Resources" to the Executive Board. It welcomes the establishment by Fund Management of an internal task force to propose steps to carry forward the report's recommendations, as appropriate.
18. The next meeting of the IMFC will be held in Washington, D.C. on April 12, 2003.

I am travelling to Europe next month, and would like to know the cheapest means and/or modes from Zurich to Nice as I plan to depart from Nice.
The cheapest way is probably ride sharing ("covoiturage") or hitchhiking. But these options require some luck and flexibility.
If you want something more predictable, take the plane or the train.
For the flights, use an engine like Kayak or Matrix Airfare Search to check the possibilities. For the beginning of September I have found one-way flights for +- 110 EUR (Germanwings, Air Berlin, Iberia).
For the trains, you can use Voyages SNCF. I have e.g. found a ticket for 126 EUR by night train via Paris. This has the advantage that you save one accommodation. The price includes the ride plus the bed. On a daytime train you will have to foresee more or less the same budget.
You can also opt for multimodal transport. Easyjet flies from Nice into Basel and Geneva, from where you can easily proceed by train to Zürich. From Basel it is one hour and costs 32 CHF. From Geneva, it is a bit less than 3 hours and will cost 84 CHF. The price for the flight depends on the exact date of travel and the extras you want to take.

College Hockey:Billins OT score lifts Ferris State over Michigan State
EAST LANSING, Mich. — For the second time in 12 days, Ferris State goaltender Pat Nagle shut out Michigan State, this time with 28 saves in a 1-0 overtime win. Chad Billins' game-winning goal was deflected in by a Spartans skater at 3:54 in OT. MSU goaltender Drew Palmisano had 30 saves in the game.
"We won the draw back to Chad Billins, then Chad just kind of walked into the middle, threw it on net, and it bounced off of one of the Spartans' skates and in," said FSU head coach Bob Daniels.
"The thing I found interesting about it was that realistically, there were a ton of scoring opportunities for both teams. Look at one minute to go in regulation. Michigan State had a heck of a chance to score short-handed. It seemed like one of those nights that it was end up being a fluky goal, if there was any goal at all, and the reason being that both goalies were playing that well."
With less than a minute to go in regulation, Spartans Anthony Hayes and Mike Merrifield created a short-handed breakaway chance after Hayes poked the puck from the MSU end into the neutral zone. Merrifield flew in with the puck and shot. Nagle saved, but the rebound came right to Hayes, who trailed in after Merrifield on the play. Hayes' shot went wide of the empty right side of the net to keep the game scoreless.
"We got better as the game went on, but we don't have a lot of offensive punch obviously," said MSU coach Rick Comley. "We killed off that penalty at the end of regulation and almost got the short-hander and then very unfortunate for Palmy, because both goalies played well. It hit our stick and went in."
The game in regulation was more choppy than it was back-and-forth, even though both teams had chances. The Bulldogs outshot the Spartans through the first two periods, 23-17, but MSU had the 10-6 shot advantage in the third. Each team exchanged excellent scoring chances near 13:45 in the second. Spartan Derek Grant broke in on Nagle, who made the save and transitioned play the other way. MSU turned over the puck in front of Palmisano and Travis Ouellette shot from point-blank range. Palmisano went prone to the ice to cover it up.
"It was interesting for both goaltenders," said Daniels, "because there were times when I thought Michigan State carried the play…for five minutes at a time, and we would carry it for five minutes at a time, and both goalies were able to keep their focus throughout the night. I think they both deserve high marks for their play."
The split helped the Bulldogs (8-6-3, 5-5-3-2 CCHA) into a tie with Alaska for fourth place in the CCHA standings, as the Nanooks were idle this weekend, but one win on the weekend did nothing for the Spartans (6-8-3, 3-6-1-0), who are still in 10th place.
Comley said that this was another game that exposed the inexperience of this MSU team.
"I thought the effort was fine," said Comley, "but I didn't think the quality was good. I thought [we] looked tired. I thought it was an old team versus a young team as far as strength and quality, but then we started to chip away at it and the third period was probably our best period. We didn't get a lot of good scoring chances, either. Shots were kind of even [but] Palmy was tested much more than their kid was."
Next up for Ferris State is a two-game home series against Alaska Dec. 10-11. For Michigan State, the only game remaining between this series and the Great Lakes Invitational tournament is next week's Big Chill at the Big House, the outdoor game against the Wolverines in Michigan Stadium Dec. 11.
