While on a vacation cruise to the Caribbean, my wife and I met a delightful young lady giving travel talks on the ship. During some conversation, it turned out that originally she is from South Africa, that she has dual USA/South African citizenship and that she is Jewish.
We also met a young man, an engineer, originally from Turkey, with dual USA/Turkish citizenship and who is Muslim.
Guess what? The Jewish lady and the Muslim man are married. To each other. This works for them and they both seem very much in love with each other with each of them caring about their spouse.
What makes this seemingly odd combination work is that neither of them is interested in or caring about their respective religion. That they – and most of us – are of a particular religion is in almost all cases a result of our parents. We as small brainwashed children subscribe – or are forced to subscribe - to the religion of our parents.
With their separate dual citizenships and their jointly but separate shunned religious backgrounds, they are free to accept people, ideas and concepts on an individual basis. They are free to think to critically to consider ideas and to abide by their intelligence instead of slavishly following some ancient man-made dictates. As the distaff side of this couple explained to me, "we consider ourselves 'citizens of the world'".
This ties in with the saying that "morality is doing what is right, rather than what you are told. Religion is doing what you are told, regardless of what is right."
Of course, this could be expanded from "morality" to the larger view of "ethics" for even more meaning in life. But the point is that religion is man-made and consists of rules, dogma, rites, rituals, and man-created beliefs that in reality have nothing to do with a good, honest, respectful, caring-for-your-fellowman life.
I pointed out to them both that if either of them were devoutly or even moderately religious, they could not – would not - be married or with each other. One of them would have dismissively shunned the other only because of religious differences.
As it is, they are not influenced by dietary laws such as the Kosher rites of Jews or the Halal rituals of food for Muslims. They are not observant of the various religious holidays of Ramadan, Hanukkah, Yom Kippur, or other Jewish or Muslim practices. This rejection of man-made rituals works and their marriage and relationship works.
This simple but cogent example is something to think about. Does religion only serve to keep us apart, to divide us, to create food, dress and life style codes that separate us from each other? Is that good? I think that we all know the answer and that religion is only a detriment to morality and ethics.
In short, this couple is singing my song that basically religion ruins or has the potential to ruin everything. Without religion to ruin our lives and destroy our thinking, we are free to accept people and ideas in an open way and to utilize critical thinking to make decisions and to accept or reject ideas and concepts.

24-Hour Nationals to take place at 24-Hours of Moab in 09
Colorado Springs, Colo. (Feb. 10, 2009)—USA Cycling announced today that it will hold the 2009 24-Hour Mountain Bike National Championship at the 24-Hours of Moab in Moab, Utah on Oct. 10-11, 2009. The 2010 USA Cycling 24-Hour Mountain Bike National Championship will then be held in conjunction with the 24-Hours of Big Bear in Hazelton, W.Va., June 12-13, 2010.
Originally slated to be held in Arizona, the USA Cycling 24-Hour Mountain Bike National Championships were re-set due to schedule and location conflicts. Previously held in conjunction with the 24-Hours of 9 Mile in Wisconsin, the event will now be run through Granny Gear Productions for the next two years, coinciding with the 24-Hours of Moab event in 2009 and 24-Hours of Big Bear, in Hazelton, West Virginia, in 2010.
"Moab will be the perfect battle ground for a National Championship race. The course is a classic mix of high-speed double-track, technical sections and power-sucking sand-traps. Likewise, I'm very excited about Big Bear being the National Championships for 24-hour racing in 2010. Our West Virginia venue represents the roots of 24-hour racing and for the first time the USA Cycling 24-hour National Championships will be held at an East-coast venue. Just as the Moab course represents the quintessential western course, Big Bear represents the ultimate east-coast course with mile after mile of wooded single-track, moss-covered rock gardens, birch and hickory forests and beautiful mountain laurel just be coming into bloom," said Laird Knight, President of Granny Gear Productions. "We've just recently purchased the 24 Hours of 9-Mile from Kevin Eccles and will be bidding for the Nationals to return to 9-mile in 2011."
The national championship competition in Moab will be open to American riders only. The 24-Hours of Moab event however will offer more than 20 divisions open to various age groups, skill, levels and team sizes.
Prior to the addition of an American-only national championship race, the 24-Hours of Moab has a fourteen year history as one of the most popular mountain bike races in North America. The annual event draws more than 4,000 racers, support members and spectators to a stunningly beautiful biking venue. The event also offers a $20,000 total cash purse and more than $30,000 in prizes.

Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (cont.)
Can a Preschool-Aged Child Be Diagnosed With ADHD?
The diagnosis of ADHD in the preschool-aged (under 5 years old) child is possible, but it can be difficult and should be made cautiously by experts well trained in childhood neurobehavioral disorders. A variety of physical problems, emotional problems, developmental problems (especially language delays), and adjustment problems can sometimes imitate ADHD in this age group. It is certainly not mandatory that the preschool-aged child showing ADHD-suggestive symptoms be placed in a preschool. The first line of therapy for children of this age showing ADHD-like symptoms is not stimulant medication therapy but rather environmental or behavioral therapy. This type of therapy can be carried out in the home with appropriate training supplied to the parents. If the child is to be placed in a preschool, the caretakers must be equally trained in the techniques of behavioral therapy. Stimulant therapy can reduce oppositional behavior and improve mother-child interaction, but it is usually reserved for severe cases or used when a child does not respond to environmental or behavioral interventions.

Bursting with over 6,000 sq. ft. of Doggie Fun, Charlies is a bright and cheery climate controlled facility. An experienced, caring staff will lead the supervised play to assure the safety, wellness, and fun of all of our furry friends! We use all pet-friendly products and emphasize cleanliness throughout the entire facility. We take pride in being a family owned business and promise a day full of endless fun for your pup and a relaxed companion for you when you get home at the end of the day. After one day with us, their tail will be wagging for more!The dogs provide our best testimonial as they drag their owners into the building on return visits. Dogs can't fake their enthusiasm. Cage-Free Boarding For that pampered pooch, we offer the ultimate in boarding options: 24 hour care. Sometimes, boarding your pup is harder on you than it is on him. Since your dog is never alone, cage-free boarding gives you the peace of mind you need to be able to enjoy YOUR time away. It is highly recommended for dogs that suffer from any type of anxiety, such as separation or fear of storms.This option provides an experience that is practically free of stress-for you and your dog. Cage-free boarding includes a fun day in daycare, after which your dog will settle down in a home like setting on a comfy bed or cozy couch, whatever makes them feel at home. If he prefers sleeping in a crate and is used to it, one will be put in the room for him. After a treat and maybe a movie, the slumber party pups are more than ready to sleep the night away, with their human caretaker close at hand. Suite Boarding We offer spacious, yet cozy doggy suites--complete with comfy beds, toys and treats, and soothing music by which to sleep at night. Or you may bring your pet's favorite bed, blanket or toys. The familiar scent will reduce any potential anxiety and make them feel at home. To avoid stomach upset, we recommend you bring your dog's regular food, but if it's not a concern, we supply a quality house dog food. Boarding also includes a full day of daycare! Your pooped-out pups (no pun intended!) will be ready to get tucked into their cozy den at bedtime for a little rest and relaxation. Why Doggie Daycare? If you are like most dog owners, your pet is more than just that-a pet. They are our faithful companions, our best friends, our "kids". As a family member, we want them to be happy. Daycare gives your dog the exercise and socialization he needs to be healthy-physically and mentally. Because we have busy lives, our beloved pets are often left home alone, which can be very stressful for them and cause separation anxiety or behavior problems. Or your dog may be very energetic and require a great deal of attention after you return home from a long day at work. At daycare, your dog will get all the socialization and exercise he needs to come home a happy and relaxed pooch. Doggie daycare will give you peace of mind during the day AND a peaceful evening. Grooming NEW! We are excited to announce the opening of our full service grooming salon! With the fortunate addition of award winning groomer, Kim Wood, to our staff, we can confidently offer the finest in dog styling services. Kim attended the Academy of Dog Grooming Arts and has been grooming for 15 years. She has perfected her trade by working with top groomers from across the country and has received awards for her excellence in grooming. The precision of her cuts is truly amazing. But what really sets Kim apart is her handling of the dogs. She is gentle and patient and believes that grooming should be as stress-free as possible for the dog. For example, she will not cage dry her "clients". This can be very stressful for the pups, so they receive a much more soothing hand drying.

Soft Pretzel RecipeRead Reviews Be the first to add a review
5 7 5
Big soft pretzels are all the rage in shopping malls across the country. I think it's worth the time to make them from scratch to get the incomparable homemade taste.
- 2 packages (1/4 ounce each) active dry yeast
- 2 cups warm water (110° to 115°)
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/4 cup butter, softened
- 2 teaspoons salt
- 1 egg
- 6-1/2 to 7-1/2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 egg yolk
- 2 tablespoons cold water
- Coarse salt
- In a large bowl, dissolve yeast in warm water. Add the sugar, butter, salt, egg and 2 cups flour. Beat until smooth. Stir in enough remaining flour to form a stiff dough. Place in a greased bowl, turning once to grease top. Cover and refrigerate for 2-24 hours.
- Punch dough down. Turn onto a lightly floured surface; divide in half. Cut each into 16 pieces. Roll each piece into a 20-in. rope. Shape into a pretzel.
- Place on greased baking sheets. Beat egg yolk and cold water; brush over pretzels. Sprinkle with coarse salt. Cover and let rise in a warm place until doubled, about 25 minutes.
- Bake at 400° for 15-20 minutes or until golden brown. Remove from pans to wire racks to cool. Yield: 32 pretzels.

|Kelham Vineyards & Winery

Reserve a spot... it's worth it
(Posted by: dkarch on 07-08-2008 @ 8:14 AM)
A friend who grew up in the area recommended Kelham. I'm glad we went. They do a great lunch/wine pairing that is great. If you can, ask for the patio furniture so you can sit back and relax. The Kelhams' dogs are great - sweet but not obsessed for attention. The Kelham family is fantastic - available, approachable and very nice. This one really is a family winery and you can meet them and interact with them and talk to them.
The wines are extremely well made. Tasty and well balanced. Nothing was "over-" anything. We just didn't prefer most of them. Again, it was obvious even to our novice palettes that they were good wines. We just preferred others... except for the Sauvignon Blanc. Knocked our socks off! Worth a taste and a buy - would make a great gift for someone who loves a good, interesting white wine.

PRAKTRIK is a studio and brand focused on "practical" "tricks".
All products are inspired by burr puzzles. We see great potential for facilitating their principles for utilitarian purposes. Their production requires no hi-tech, they can be made of natural, ecological, and healthy (harmless) materials, they are assemblable and disassemblable, they can also be fun.
Such puzzle structures are geometrical and constructivist on one hand and mystical on the other. This mystery brings some emotional quality to such designs that we consider very important nowadays. They also stimulate and require some intelligence from the user which is also very important to us.
Most of such known puzzle examples are too complicated and their parts are difficult to manufacture; as a result, new ones had to be found. During the geometrical analysis it became clear that this task was just the opposite of the one of a classical puzzle maker because the new solutions had to be as simple as possible and easy to assemble.
Generally, three interlocking principles have been used:
The first one is represented by structures (4x6, 5x4, 6x3 ...) that are theoretically "impossible" to be assembled at least in our tri-dimensional world. They can become reality only by leaving enough distance between the faces of the element notches and applying some pressure during assembly. These burr structures are interlocked in all directions and are independent of their orientation in space and gravity.
The second one is represented by structures (1x3, 1x2+1, 1x6, 2x3, 4x3... ) that can be put together by sliding motions. It can be sliding of the wooden pieces one after another (1x3, 1x2+1), half of them after the other half (1x6, 2x3, 4x3 ), or all of the elements together (1x3, 1x2+1, 1x6, 2x3, 4x3... ) as a coordinate-motion (slide-together) structure. Such mechanical puzzles are locked only in some directions and most of them depend on gravity in order their parts to stay together.
The third principle is represented by structures (VST, VIIC, XIIL, IXT1, VIMB....) that can be put together by moving all parts simultaneously. Such puzzles are named "coordinate motion" or "slide together". Once assembled, the whole structure stays stable even one tries to move one or several of its parts. The stability in this case does not depend much on orientation and gravity.
The name of a particular piece of furniture comes from the logic of its structure. For the "impossible" and "sliding" pieces it consists of the number of different element types multiplied by the number of elements of each type. The whole mathematical expression gives the total number of wooden parts. For "coordinate" collection the name consists of the total number of elements represented by Roman digits followed by letters representing the function - "S" for stool, "T" for table etc.
Some of the principles we found appeared to be part or a step of more complicated puzzle structures (1x3, 1x2+1) and other appeared to be already known to other inventors (1x6) - Rinus Roelofs and his 6 piece slide structure (mortise-and-tenon joint). There are still numerous practical burrs waiting to be discovered and some of the wooden "knots" presented here to be used in other fields different from furniture design.
We are happy to work with VizaLiving, a factury that has more than 20 years of experience in producing high quality furniture.

I think that all the actors are utterly amazing for what they do, and thoroughly deserve a squeee if the desire takes you.

But, I'm led to wonder if Lord Prydon actually read the comment I made as I was not actually squeeing myself, but simply stating that some people might.

Ah well, its all in the past now.Jesshttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4508122422297202292.post-76726159384171786472008-04-06T00:12:00.000+01:002008-04-06T00:12:00.000+01:00Hi Jess.I'm new here, though I've been on your sit...Hi Jess.
I'm new here, though I've been on your site a few times but I've never left a comment until the airing of tonights episode. I love what you've done here so take no notice of one so-called fan with a bad attitude. In my opinion, a REAL fan not only loves the show, they love the actors too, all of them. And if we want to squeee at one of them, then we damn well will!

Welfare Reform:
Progress in Meeting Work-Focused TANF Goals
GAO-01-522T: Published: Mar 15, 2001. Publicly Released: Mar 15, 2001.
Additional Materials:
- Full Report:
(202) 512-7003
Office of Public Affairs
(202) 512-4800
This testimony discusses the progress of welfare reform. GAO found that states are transforming the nation's welfare system into a work-based, temporary assistance program for needy families, with a focus on moving people into employment rather than signing them up for cash assistance. States' implementation of Temporary Assistance for Needy Families (TANF), undertaken in a time of strong economic growth, has been accompanied by a 50 percent decline in the number of families receiving cash welfare. GAO's review of state-sponsored studies available in 1999 and several more recent studies show that most of the adults in families remaining off the welfare rolls were employed at some time after leaving welfare. All six of the states GAO visited have modified their "work first" programs to better serve recipients who face difficulties in entering the workforce. States have found that some of the recipients with such difficulties do, in fact, find jobs. Although states have made significant progress in meeting work-focused goals attention should be paid to the following issues: (1) emphasizing and enhancing work-based strategies, including engaging hard-to-employ recipients in work and helping families stay off welfare and increase their earnings, and (2) fostering and facilitating improved management and service delivery approaches by states.

Morrison is holding an 8.34 pounder, the two-day tournament's big bass. Cazelot's fish weighed slightly more than 6 pounds. The Acadiana area teams had a two-day total of 38.13 pounds, more six pounds ahead of the second-place team of Kevin Voisin and Bill McCarty. by joe macaluso| Advocate Outdoors writer Comments Brooke Morrison and Andre Cazelot knew they had their work cut out for them. Nearly two pounds behind first-day leaders Luke Billiu and Ryan Young, Morrison and Cazelot said they were sure about where they were going, but had their fingers crossed about what they were going to find when they got there. The two teams, and the other 23 teams that survived the first-day test in the annual big-money Louisiana Sportsman Bass Championship, were gunning for the $12,000 first-place money, a prize that could keep them in bass tournaments for a long time. Like the other 24 teams, Morrison and Cazelot wondered what all the increasingly strong winds through a sunshiny Saturday would do to the spot that produced a first-day, five-bass, 16.31-pound total. They didn't have to wonder long. After making Sunday's one-hour-long ride west from Doiron's Landing in Stephensville to Jeanerette Lake near Fausse Point on a cloudy, chilly morning, Cazelot said they lost their first fish, a 3-pounder, didn't have another bite for an hour, then decided to hit a spot in Jeanerette that they scouted but didn't touch Saturday. Morrison, a solid south Louisiana tournament fisherman, said he pitched a June Bug-colored Brush Hog into a spot, felt the strike and hauled in the tournament's big momma, an 8.34-pound bass, their first fish of the day. Cazelot said minutes later, another Brush Hog produced a 6-pounder for him. "Those two fish, 14 pounds, and we figured it was our tournament to win," Cazelot said late Sunday at the Lamar Dixon Expo Center, where the annual Louisiana Sportsman Show was wrapping up a four-day run. They added three more solid bass, two more on a Brush Hog and another on a Humdinger spinnerbait to finish with a whopping 21.82-pound stringer that shot them to the win, the 12-grand and another 2-grand for their 8-plus pounder. Kevin Voisin and Bill McCarty held second place with a 13.72 second-day catch and a 31.43 total. Showing the vagaries of the weather, Billiu and Young brought in one bass and finished 18th. "That's the first time in a tournament that I've every laid off fish on the first day to fish an area the second day," Morrison said. "We knew we had to save some fish to have a chance, and it paid off this time." Cazelot said there were at least three other tournament boats in the lake, and that they lost several more fish during Sunday's round that could have produced a 25-pound sringer. "It's really a January, February, March lake, a lake that's good for a couple of years, then isn't productive for several years," Morrison said. "We hit it just right." A longer run The annual Children's Miracle Network Bass tournament allows anglers to fish any open, public waters as long as they check out early and arrive at the St. James Boat Club by the 3 p.m. check-in time. Brett Sellers and Jason Pourciau knew their run wouldn't leave much time — they ran to Alexandria and fished Pool 2 on the Red River — and made it back in time to collect top money for their 18.24-pound five-bass stringer and their 5.12-pound big bass. The Elite Dennis Tietje was the only one of four Louisiana anglers to make it to the Bassmaster Elite 2013 opener's final 12-angler day, but failed to catch a bass and finished 12th. Texan Todd Faircloth took the $100,000 first-place money with a four-day 49-pound, 6-ounce total from the Sabine River. Get The Advocate in your inbox Subscribe

Chris Daughtry apologized for an incident that stirred up a lot of criticism and controversy recently. Though some celebrities would try to gloss over or make excuses for the incident, the "American Idol" alum's fans are proud that he stepped up and issued what was clearly a heartfelt apology that took full responsibility for the situation that generated so much buzz. Daughtry's apology was posted to his Facebook page on Saturday.
The issue was that Chris and his band had appeared on "Fox & Friends" on Friday, performing as part of the summer concert series. At the end of the show, the hosts asked Chris to join them in singing a patriotic song in honor of D-Day. Chris was caught off-guard and quipped that he was "off the clock" and he would watch them sing instead. He then left the stage a moment later and said, "This is where I'll bail." The video is quite awkward and it's obvious Daughtry was caught completely off-guard by the request.
Of course Chris Daughtry's comments led to a firestorm on social media. It didn't take long for Daughtry to personally step up and post his apology video to try to explain just what happened. He says that what he said was "absolutely disrespectful" and that his attempt to inject some humor when he was caught off-guard led to a "Poor choice of words, terrible judgment on my part."
The singer went on to say that "Everyone has a moment in their life that they regret very deeply, and this is at the top of my list." He says he supports the troops and he clearly didn't intend to disrespect those who fight for this country. His fans have embraced his apology, for the most part, and many believe he handled the incident as well as he could.
While there is plenty of criticism on social media regarding the incident, many of Daughtry's fans didn't see any intentional insult toward our veterans intended at any point. What did you think of the Chris Daughtry "Fox & Friends" incident and the subsequent apology? Should he have handled anything in the aftermath differently?

Comments about BCBGMAXAZRIAGROUP Willa Lace Dress:
I purchased this online as my destination wedding dress (Allure color, size small). It is a beautiful dress, the fabric and design are very romantic. The color and quality of the piece is great, without question. I am 5'4, 125 lbs and a little top heavy around the bust area. The length was perfect for me, with the hem hitting slightly above the knee. However, the top of the dress seemed a bit too large. The straps were pretty long and the dress kept falling down and exposing my bust. I could have taken it in for alterations, but the other issue I had with it is not easy to change: I hated the waist. It does not sit at the natural waist, more along bottom of the ribcage (sort of like a pseudo empire waist), which I personally find very unflattering. Using a sash definitely helped add some definition to the waist line. I tried really hard to talk myself into keeping it, but realized it just didn't quite meet my needs. It really is a beautiful dress though. I absolutely loved the color, texture, layering and the quality of the lace.

LOS ANGELES--Jim Noble, executive creative director of BBDO Atlanta, resigned his post on Wednesday, sources said. Noble, who joined the Atlanta-based shop in February 2001 after serving as creative director at GMO/Hill, Holliday in San Francisco, is planning to open an agency in Lake Tahoe, Nev.
Noble's resignation stemmed from creative differences with the shop's president and CEO, Chris Hall, sources said. Although neither Noble nor Hall could be reached for comment at press time, a recorded greeting on Noble's voice mail at BBDO confirmed that he is leaving Friday, April 19, and plans to set up shop in Lake Tahoe beginning in June.
While at BBDO, Noble, 42, worked on accounts such as Cingular Wireless and the U.S. Department of Housing and Urban Development (HUD). He moved to the Atlanta shop after its previous executive creative director, Art Mellor, retired in 2000. Nobel began his 15-year career in advertising at the former Chiat\Day in San Francisco before joining BBDO's Vancouver office. From there, he returned to the U.S. as associate creative director at the shop then known as Goldberg Moser O'Neill (now GMO/Hill, Holliday). His father John was a copywriter for DDB in the 1960s and '70s who worked on the Volkswagen account.

BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9981 luxury smartphone announced by RIM
Research in Motion and Porsche have officially unveiled the BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9981, a new luxury smartphone that was first seen a few months ago.
The Porsche Design P'9981 runs BlackBerry OS 7 with an "exclusive Porsche Design UI", and is 11.3mm thin. It's build from a forged stainless steel frame, and has a "sculpted QWERTY keyboard", in addition to a hand-wrapped leather back cover.
Other features include a 2.8 inch VGA touchscreen display, HSDPA, NFC, Wi-Fi, GPS, Wikitude World Browser augmented reality app, 5MP rear camera with 720p video recording, 768MB of RAM, 1.2GHz single-core processor, 8GB of internal memory, and "exclusive PINs that help easily identify another P'9981 smartphone user."
The BlackBerry Porsche Design P'9981 will be available in Porsche Design stores around the world sometime later this year. There's no word on the smartphone's price yet.
It isn't the first time Porsche ventures into the mobile phone world – the company has also worked with Sagem to make that Porsche Design P'9522 candybar back in 2008.

Why Chinese Medicine
Chinese Medicine is a functional medicine-
Functional medicine is concerned with helping you to live and enjoy your life with more comfort and ease - whether that is decreasing pain, increasing range of motion, or being able to sleep better. It isn't concerned with whether your laboratory test results are considered "normal" or not, but rather whether you feel better and can function better.
Chinese Medicine is patient-focused-
Biomedicine is disease focused.
Chinese Medicine treats you as an individual-
It employs time-tested strategies and treatments that are applied according to the unique condition of each individual patient. Biomedicine uses protocols regardless of situation or individual differences.
Chinese Medicine works to promote and improve your body's natural healing powers-
Most pharmaceuticals suppress or mask symptoms. Decreasing symptoms can give relief, but true healing does not always occur. Chinese medicine works to get to the root of the problem and solve it.
Chinese Medicine has minimal or no side effects-
Acupuncture, Chinese herbs, dietary therapy and Qigong work with the body's systems to restore health. Thus, side effects are minimal or non-existent, and never dangerous. This is a major difference with Biomedicine and specifically with pharmaceutical drugs which have a multitude of side effects.
Chinese Medicine is safe-
Chinese Medicine is the oldest continually practiced medical system in the world with several thousand years of clinical experience. Compare that to Biomedicine in which a good clinical trial study lasts for only five years and most side effects are only discovered after the drug has been released to the market.
Chinese Medicine excels in treating chronic conditions-
Since Chinese Medicine encourages your body to function properly and heal itself, it actually can improve long-standing conditions without creating side effects. Compare that to Biomedicine treating a chronic condition in which you take pharmaceuticals with side effects for which you take other pharmaceuticals which create more side effects.

Sean Nash
A Bay Area Native, Sean Levon Nash spent the majority of his childhood between East Oakland, Indiana, and Iowa. He is of Choctaw, Muskogee, Brulé, Commanche, German and Afro American descent. Living as a working artist in the Mission district for the last 17 years, he has shown his work on the street, in cafes, concerts and galleries, cultural centers and museums, and in both community and premier film festivals around the world. This diversity of venues has enabled him to expose a wide audience to both the work, and the stories that work represents. He learned to translate years of experience as a community artist into the area of independent filmmaking, and documentary animation. Though his most recent works are centered around myth and legend, including Yakoke (a Choctaw creation story), and Achuckma Hoke (How things came to be) which is set in the late Pleistocene era both films are in his peoples' native language Choctaw. He is also writing a Integrative mythopoeia concerning European nursery rhymes and fairy tales, seeking to create a unified structure to accommodate many tales- a Native American Mother Goose. Communication across and within cultures is the focus of Sean's artistic exploration. Through teaching in CORE and Diversity Studies at California College of Arts and Art History and Culture at Laney College, Berkeley City College, and Merrit College he is further able to reach out, inform and influence academic and student communities in the Bay Area. He seeks to make and teach art that has social impact. Art with an aesthetic style which is elegant, and inviting; to make these pictures tell stories of cultural relevance that can become part of the social fabric in a constructive way; to make art that works as hard as the people who view it. In 2012 Sean received the San Francisco Art Commission's Cultural Equity Grant, in 2011 Yakoke premiered at the 29th Annual American Indian Film Festival and was nominated for best animation; in 2010 the Sundance Film Festival added his work, Los ABC's to it's "classic shorts" series.

Jack Morton Worldwide
Donald Gregorio, Executive Assistant
How has Jack Morton Worldwide changed since its founding in 1939?
The company has traditionally focused a lot on events — we did the Opening and Closing ceremonies at the 2004 Athens Olympics, as well as the FIFA World Cup in South Africa in 2010. As we evolve, we are getting more involved in marketing and are looking at the entire brand experience and how to get people more engaged with brands. We have lots of national clients, but also work with local companies like Reebok, Biogen Idec and Arbella Insurance Group.
What can you tell me about Jack Morton Worldwide's partnership with Citizen Schools?
Citizen Schools is an extended-day learning program for sixth- and seventh-graders in Boston-area public schools. Jack Morton coordinates a multiple-agency apprenticeship program where students work on campaigns for brands like First Night and then pitch their ideas to the client. Every Thursday for 10 weeks, students come into our Back Bay office for group work and really get a sense of what it's like to be part of an office environment.
What do your employees get out of the program?
EVP/Managing Director Steve Mooney has always been passionate about student outreach, and it's contagious. The staff will all be busy with work, but when they hear that elevator door open and see those 10 or 20 students walk in, they drop everything to be with them. They get a rush from it. It's exciting to hear from alumni: I ran into a student from the first year who is now applying to colleges she never thought she'd be qualified for. We've had nothing but great feedback on it.
Favorite part of town
It has to be the South End. In much of the city there's all these large chains like Chili's and Cheesecake Factory, but the South End is nothing like that. The restaurants, the residential neighborhoods, the parks — it feels more culturally vibrant.
Favorite hobby
I studied musical theater and dance in school, and I still do shows at night. Over the past couple of years, I've been doing dance performances for Miracle Providers Northeast, which raises funding for children with HIV/AIDS.
Favorite restaurant in Boston
My ultimate is Petit Robert. I always go for the escargot and the steak frites.

Nothing says "good morning" quite like a delicious chocolate chip muffin. Except maybe a delicious chocolate chip muffin that also adds the delicious flavor of bananas and peanut butter to the mix, that is.
These muffins are made with a little bit of whole wheat flour and stevia to lighten them up, but maintain the moist deliciousness you expect from muffins. This Examiner will definitely be making them again, probably as soon as she eats the last one.
- 1 cup all purpose flour
- 1 cup whole wheat flour
- 1/2 cup sugar*
- 1/2 cup stevia
- 1 tablespoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 cup bananas, mashed (about 2 medium bananas)
- 1/3 cup milk
- 1/3 cup creamy peanut butter (those pictured used natural peanut butter)
- 3 tablespoon vegetable oil
- 1 egg
- 1 cup dark chocolate chips
*subbing out all of the sugar for stevia is not recommended, as this impacts the moistness and texture of the muffins.
Preheat oven to 350 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a large mixing bowl, combine both types of flour, both types of sugar, baking powder, and salt.
Mash up your bananas, if you have not already done so. Add the bananas to the dry ingredients, along with the milk, peanut butter, vegetable oil, and egg.
Stir just until combined, then fold in the chocolate chips.
Line a 12-cup muffin pan with muffin liners. Spoon batter (which will be relatively thick)into the cups, dividing evenly between them. Bake at 350 degrees for about 25 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean. Let them cool if you can stand it, and then enjoy!

Recording "White Christmas" without being Bing Crosby is kind of like recording "The Christmas Song" without being Nat "King" Cole: treacherous, fraught with automatic comparisons. This doesn't stop anybody in either case. Enter Michael Buble, doing his carefree/less crooning thing to the track and previewing it for the world more than two months in advance (and yet less in advance than the Bieb. Oh, scheduling.) All we can say about his contribution is that it's what you either love or don't about Buble's music; unless Buble's withholding some serious WTF for the full track, you won't find any drastic departures.
You might find a departure in duet partner Shania Twain's voice, though. YouTube has apparently juuuuuuust figured out that Shania Twain's voice doesn't sound like the Mutt Lange-armored growl of her past albums. What they haven't figured out is that it doesn't sound much like her voice on "Today Is Your Day," either. In fact, it sounds kind of like Madonna's, quirks and sass built in. In this case, that's a compliment. Maybe her future work will be awesome after all!
And yes, we know it's still October. We're sorry.

Effective Dec. 11, 2010, revisions made to the barber regulations were approved as final. These revisions require that barber schools and barber shops that train barber students keep reports of the hours earned by students and transmit these reports to the board on a quarterly basis. Revisions were also made to regulations regarding student curriculum.
A letter explaining these changes was mailed to all licensees in January. View the letter for more information on the regulation revisions.

Say bye-bye to bristle.
No cutting corners, guys.
If you're seeking a baby-faced shorn identity - lather up and do as your granddaddy did.
The old-fashioned barber's shop shave - hot foam applied with a badger hair brush followed up with a stropped and gleaming straight razor - was a male ritual for years. Now the traditional shave, often depicted quaintly in movies and on TV, is getting a closer look from men willing to forgo convenience for quality.Read More
The Department of State is pleased to introduce the long-awaited newsletter preference center! At the suggestion of several board members, licensees may now subscribe to multiple newsletters and more easily manage their subscriptions. The newsletter preference center will allow you to subscribe to as many board newsletters as you wish, unsubscribe from any newsletters you no longer wish to receive and update your email address.
The preference center also opens newsletter subscription to non-licensees who may be interested in a particular business or health care field. We encourage you to share the preference center with your non-licensee colleagues so that they may also receive the benefits of the newsletters' important updates and timely articles.
It is important to note that updating your email address on My License will not change the email address used for newsletter subscriptions. You must use the preference center to change the email address at which you wish to receive newsletters, as well as to subscribe or unsubscribe from newsletters.
Visit the preference center now or go the Department of State's homepage, www.dos.state.pa.us, click on "Licensing," then "Newsletters."

College Hockey:Tarkki Stops 39, Wildcats Take Game 1
Backup Goalie Keys NMU Past Host UAF
FAIRBANKS, Alaska — Northern Michigan became the only road team to win its CCHA playoff Game 1 Friday night, getting 39 saves from backup netminder Tuomas Tarkki to hold off host Alaska-Fairbanks 3-1 before a crowd of 4,300.
"It is a long series and we are not going to get too high," NMU head coach Walt Kyle said. "I would not tell you that we looked fresh."
Patrick Murphy gave the Wildcats the early 1-0 lead at 13:01 of the opening period. Bobby Selden and Matt Hunter assisted.
NMU struck twice in the second period to take a step closer to double the edge. Jamie Milam made the score 2-0 with a goal at 12:50. Dirk Southern was given credit with the helper. David Bonk made it 3-0 with his third goal of the season at 15:34. Murphy and Hunter both picked up their second point on the night with the assist.
The Nanooks got on the board with a goal at 4:05 of the third period for the final margin, but could get no closer.
Tarkki, playing in place of Craig Kowalski, was the linchpin in nets for the Wildcats.
"This is my first playoff game," Tarkki said. "It is always nice to get a win in a playoff game. Especially when you come to Fairbanks — the crowd is amazing."
UAF's Preston McKay had 23 saves for the game as the Nanooks outshot NMU 40-26. Neither team scored on the power play; the Wildcats were 0-2 and the Nanooks were 0-5.
The Wildcats (19-14-4) will play the Nanooks (16-18-1) again on Saturday night, where a NMU win would sent the Wildcats to the CCHA Super Six in Detroit.
"I was proud of our guys' effort. We have to get better tomorrow and potentially on Sunday," Kyle added.

Xabi Alonso
Tolosa, Spain
"What is happening in Liverpool is a huge adventure and I was ready for this change in culture. I've accepted what England can offer and I feel part of it. I used to live in San Sebastián with my family and friends, but now I spend most of the time with people from the club. I must adapt and I am happy to do so. People in Liverpool are very welcoming. I hardly miss anything from home; maybe a big fresh-fish meal, but I've even found places to buy the same tinned tuna I used to eat at home."
- Xabi Alonso
With all their firepower up front leading the world's strongest midfield, it's easy for Spain's deep-lying midfielder Xabi Alonso to get be forgotten in the mix. But do so at your own peril. Often hailed as one of the best passers in all of Europe, the Real Madrid midfielder helped his former club Liverpool win The Champions League, an FA Cup and was an instrumental part of Spain's Euro 2008 Championship. And guess what? He's not even pegged to start for his country come this summer's World Cup. Spain is just that deep -- it's scary (Iker Casillas, David Villa, Andres Iniesta, Xavi, and Cesc Fabregas represent).

This dessert has all the rustic charm of a savory bruschetta. Cooking cherries in red wine and sugar is a time-honored tradition in Italy. Here, I use the wine-rich, cherry-sweet compote as a topping for sturdy country bread, toasted and spread with a touch of sweet butter.
Cherries can be found right now at the Nashville Farmers Market, so pick up a bunch, and let's get cooking!
Cherry Bruschetta
- 3/4 cup sugar
- 1 cup red wine
- 1 piece lemon rind
- 1 1/2 pounds sweet cherries, pitted
- 4 thick slices country bread
- 1 1/2 tablespoons unsalted butter
Combine the sugar, red wine, and lemon rind in a medium saucepan. Stir until the sugar dissolves. Add the cherries and stir. Bring to a boil over high heat, then reduce the heat to low and simmer, uncovered, for 15 minutes. Lightly grill or toast the bread and spread with a little butter. Place the bread on 4 individual dessert plates. Spoon the cherries and their juices over the bread. Serve warm.

The recent decision by the Boy Scouts of America governing board to reverse a policy that has been in effect for over sixty years has stirred much controversy; allowing openly gay boys to become members ( they still bar openly gay adults from holding leadership positions).
Many religious organizations have become split over the issue. The more conservative churches have withdrawn all support from the BSA, while those with a more liberal attitude have embraced the policy as being enlightened.
Some have compared the change to the "Don't ask, don't tell" policy in the military which began during the Clinton administration and much like that policy, there are those that feel it is too permissive, while other think it is not permissive enough.
This shift in policy on the surface makes little sense. If the issue is exposing young boys to the homosexual lifestyle, it would make more sense to bar gays outright. After all, young boys are more likely to be influenced to behave a certain way by their peers rather than adults if one were to believe that "gayness" is a learned behavior.
From a legal standpoint, the Supreme Court has previously opined that the BSA is a private organization and therefore has the right to control who can and cannot become a member. Has the BSA suddenly become more tolerant, or just acquiescing to a vocal minority?
Whatever the reason for the policy shift, there are concerns that this may be the end of an organization that has been an integral component to the development of young boys into young men (and young girls into young women in the case of Girl Scouts) for over half a century as those organizations that have previously supported the BSA/GSA financially and in other ways withdraw that support and membership declines because of parental concerns.
This is still America. Although we find some forms of speech distasteful and intolerance unpleasant those that care to prohibit certain members of our society from being members of a private organization have that right.
Those that disagree with any private organizations membership policy have the right to disagree and if they so choose, to start their own organization.
This is the beauty of America.

The Territory is renowned for its community spirit and, particularly in regional areas, celebrations of that spirit are highly cherished. When heading to NT be sure to visit a regatta or a cattle muster, a fishing competition or an outdoor cinema night. Territorians love getting together for some fun with old friends and new.
About 420kms southeast of Darwin, Mataranka is a tiny town filled with historical significance. It's not so tiny, though, when visitors come for The Never Never Festival and its art showings, poetry under the stars, bush yarns, karaoke and barbecue dinner. There's even a beach volleyball challenge (possibly a 'challenge' because the nearest beach is over 400kms away).
Near the coastal Aboriginal community of Maningrida, Arnhemland Bird Week attracts local twitchers and ornithologists alike. But it also brings in visitors just keen to enjoy the pristine landscape and witness the incredible range of birds (up to 250 species) that proliferate in the region each year.
A big get-together for locals and visitors, the legendary Henley-on-Todd Regatta 'celebrates' the fact that the town is 1,500kms from any large body of water. It makes for a hilarious spectacle and a lot of fun when entrants trawl their home-made bottomless 'eights', 'Oxford tubs' and 'bath tubs' through the deep, coarse sand of the dry Todd River.
Fogg Dam Field Day is an hour east of Darwin and shows off the teeming wildlife around the diverse conservation reserve as well as giving insight into the local Limilngan-Wulna people, whose stories of their ancestors are woven throughout the landscape. The day includes information tours and bush tucker walks, and for the kids, there's storytelling, a treasure hunt and a water discovery exercise to reveal some of this remarkable area's secrets.
Slideshow controls have visual effect only.
Experience first-hand the community spirit that Territorians are famous for. Put on your hat and slip into your thongs – there's something brewing.
Join in and get a glimpse of what everyday life is like at a community event in Katherine… And who knows you might even make some new friends.
Mix with the locals and get an insight into everyday life in this part of the world. Find community events in the Tennant Creek and Barkly Region.
In Alice for a week or two? Get to know your new neighbours at a local community event in the city and get a fresh perspective on this Outback town.

Ive never done this before. Ive always picked one of the 3 big leagues because in a few years when I have a great squad, I want my domestic league to still be really hard to win. I dont want the only challenge to be the Champions League. Thing is I love big stadiums, and then I started thinking in FM, after 10-20 years, why wouldnt the Bundesliga be the strongest league in Europe? With all those massive stadiums bringing in all that revenue. They have about 12 stadiums over 45,000 many of them huge.
So, anyone else managed long term in this league? How does it turn out? Thanks!

-- The Joint Base Andrews Child Development Center, a 316th Force Support Squadron program, and Airman & Family Readiness Center offer a program for parents needing a break.
"Parents Night Out" is an evening program offered by the CDC, youth center and the AFRC. This program allows parents a "kids free" Saturday evening from 5 to 11 p.m., when they drop their children at the CDC or youth center on the designated night of the program.
"It's a great opportunity for parents to have an evening out while their children are being cared for by well trained staff and in a quality environment," said Emily Chapman, acting director CDC 1.
The Parents Night Out is open to all Department of Defense identification card holders. The cost for care is $4 an hour and a non-refundable $8 deposit is required at the time of registration. The cost for the youth center is $15 per night.
"Give Parents a Break" is an opportunity for spouses of deployed and remotely stationed personnel to receive free childcare during the monthly "Parents Night Out." Participants in this program receive referral certificates from the AFRC for the program.
Children must be registered at the central registration office if they are not currently in the Andrews system. Registration is valid for one year. Parents must bring the child's vaccine records at enrollment time.
The "Parents Night Out" is offered the first Saturday of each month unless it is a holiday weekend, in which case the Parents Night will be held the second Saturday of the month at one of the three CDCs and youth center on a rotating basis. Registration for Parents Night Out closes at 6 p.m., the Thursday prior to the program.
The CDC is open to children under the age of 5 and youth center 6 and up.
The "Parents Night Out" schedule is:
July 10 at CDC I & YC
Aug. 7 at CDC II & YC
Sept. 11 at JP Hoyer CDC & YC
Oct. 2 at CDC I & YC
Nov. 6 at CDC II & YC
