Catholicism, the religion that gave the world the idea of the missionary, is struggling on its historic home turf.
Pope Benedict XVI is creating a new Vatican office to fight secularization and "re-evangelize" the West, says Associated Press, which calls this " tacit acknowledgment that his attempts to reinvigorate Christianity in Europe haven't succeeded and need a new boost. "
Despite spending his entire clerical career calling for faith in Europe, and making it a focus of the early years of his pontificate, he seemed to be admitting he's been outrun by "a serious crisis of the sense of the Christian faith and role of the Church," both in Europe and the West, that he describes as "progressive secularization of society and a sort of 'eclipse of the sense of God.'"
But what if the sense of God is still there -- just not within the Catholic confines? Americans are still plenty spiritual and while I haven't studied surveys of spirituality v. religion in Europe, it's hard to imagine they've forsaken any interest in or awareness of the ineffable.
Is the issue secularization v. God or the world v. the Church? Is God or the Catholic Church getting eclipsed here?

In three days time, a Kickstarter for a unique Wii U game will come to a close. As of now the game still needs a little under $26,000 worth of pledges before the game is set to go. For all you Wii U owners out there who complain that there are not enough games that use the Wii U Gamepad to good effect, well this is the time to stop complaining and do something about it. The Kickstarter in question is for a Wii U game called Hex Heroes. It's a Real Time Strategy game that will use the Gamepad to make a proper console RTS. Not only that, it puts a unique spin on the genre by allowing four players to play as the units that typically the RTS player commands in games like StarCraft or Age of Empires. All the while, a fifth player uses the Gamepad like the traditional player you'd play as in a RTS game on the PC.
For a crazy amount of more info and to pledge go to the site listed here: https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/prismaticgames/hex-heroes
This is an example of a developer trying to give gamers something new on a platform that has the right tools to do the game justice. Wii U gamers, this is an opportunity to put your money where your mouth is, if you think that the Wii U doesn't have enough games that use the Gamepad as more than a glorified menu, now is the time to start helping change that. Please give it a look and consider backing this game, or if not backing, think about sharing it with those you know who like the genre/want more unique Wii U games. Heck even if you aren't a Wii U owner and have a PC/Mac/Linux, you can still join in on the fun as the game is also getting released on those platforms. As long as you have the proper setup you can play the game the same way as on Wii U. The lowest pledge to get the game starts at $15 dollars, with better rewards for higher pledges.
Thanks for the read. Stay classy IGN readers.

Your gift to help a hardworking entrepreneur will double in impact thanks to a generous World Vision partner.
Alejandra is from Philippines. She has 2 children. She needs a loan of $275 to improve her sari-sari store.
Alejandra is from Philippines. She has 2 children. She needs a loan of $275 to improve her sari-sari store.
Alejandra Luzon owns a Sari-sari store in Hilongos, Leyte Philippines. She is a good neighbor and allows her customers to purchase items on credit if they are not immediately able to pay.
Alejandra would like to improve her store to make it more attractive to customers. By bringing in more customers, she will increase her income, which she will use to provide for her family's needs. She will put any additional funds towards making necessary improvements to her house and will save up money to buy her own land.
Retail is a quick and scalable way to begin earning a profit. Many entrepreneurs begin with stalls at markets or even at home and need a loan to expand or increase their inventory. Others may be ready to open a small store. Goods purchased from loan funds range from clothing, grocery or sundry items to jewelry, candy, perfume or health and beauty supplies. Loans in the commerce sector account for around 33% of our loans.
The community of Omega, located in the Southern Leyte province of the Philippines, is home to a large population of farmers and fishermen. On average, 11 of the Philippines' approximately 24 annual typhoons affect this area. Along with poor farming and fishing practices, this contributes to the depletion of natural resources, which affects economic prosperity. Farmers mainly grow rice, coconut, and sugar cane. Fruit and vegetable production is limited, and many families struggle to find sufficient nutrients.
Nearly 50 percent of the area's residents live in poverty. As a result of economic struggles, many children drop out of school and seek work in places such as the sugar cane fields or urban areas. These children often face exploitation and abuse.
In Omega, World Vision is helping community members create a more sustainable future by providing training in livestock raising and fertilizer production, distributing small loans, and developing businesses. We are also educating families about child rights and operating children's associations.
Thank you for supporting a small business loan for Alejandra Luzon to expand her Sari-sari store.
After receiving the loan from World Vision, she invested the $275 to improve her Sari-sari store.
Alejandra has been repaying her loan on time with her new profits. She makes weekly payments of $13.
In addition to repaying her loan, Alejandra is using additional income to purchase food for the family, buy supplies in bulk, and expand the current business. Alejandra's 2 children continue to study in school.
Thank you for supporting Alejandra and World Vision Micro!
Thank you for supporting the small business loan for Alejandra Luzon to improve her retail and services business. She invested her loan of $275 to improve her Sari-sari store.
Alejandra has now repaid her loan in full. In addition to repaying her loan, Alejandra has used her additional income to purchase food for the family and expand the current business. Alejandra's 2 children continue to study in school.
The loan Alejandra received helped her business expand and the profits she is now earning create lasting improvements in her life. In the future Alejandra hopes to repair or expand their home and expand the current business.
Thank you for your support of Alejandra and World Vision Micro. These funds are now being recycled to support another eager entrepreneur in the same community.

The documentation gives the following statement
"To use any these in your web pages, you only need to include a single

I've never used this module, but I'd hazard a guess that using the metatags module, you could put in a tag for skyscanner and put your api key in there.
Or perhaps add it to your page.tpl.php file.

I had a quick look at the module. Once you get the Skyscanner API key, go to Configuration-> Skyscanner and enter the key. Now go to Structure -> Blocks and enable the 'Skyscanner - Flight search' block. If you click on 'Configure' beside the block, you can enter some defaults for Skyscanner. Hope that helps.
different for drupal
Usually with Drupal modules, there is a configuration page, where you just pop in your api key (or similar).
For example, with Google Analytics, Google gives you the code, but with the analytics module, you just need to pop in your reference ID on the configuration page.
So, if you click on Admin >> Configuration, you should have a SkyScanner settings page, check that and you'll probably have a field to pop in your api key there - so you won't need to copy/paste the HTML they gave you.

"It is supported by our component vendors, used to teach engineers at Denmark universities and familiar to most RF designers. From S-parameter-based matching utilities to integrated 3-D electromagnetic simulation with links to enterprise printed circuit board layout tools, ADS is the most economical and future-proof choice to design the RF sections of our future smart-metering products. A good working relationship with our tool vendors is also very important to us, and we were impressed by the responsiveness and professionalism of Agilent's support organization." ADS is the industry's leading electronic design automation software for RF, microwave and high-speed digital applications. As a comprehensive design environment, it provides powerful, though easy-to-use, schematic-entry and layout modules combined with system-level, circuit-level and electromagnetic simulators. Leveraging the most accurate physical model libraries and modern digital communications signal and standards libraries (for example, MIMO, OFDM, LTE and DVB), ADS makes design and verification as easy as verifying a manufactured board with modern communications test equipment—only months earlier in the product life cycle. "Smart metering systems and advanced metering infrastructure rely heavily on RF technology to minimize cost and improve efficiency," said Joe Civello, ADS product planning manager with Agilent EEsof EDA. "With its easy 'what if' analysis of alternatives and statistics-based manufacturing yield analysis and optimization, ADS plays a critical role in helping designers deliver top-quality RF circuit designs. We are pleased that Kamstrup selected ADS to help with its RF circuit design and look forward to continuing to support its needs in the future."

(New Jersey)
My husband died on the last day of our honeymoon in Maui, Hawaii on Thanksgiving Day November 26, 2009. We were married for only 12 days. He drowned in the ocean while he was snorkeling. It was just 2 days after we celebrated my 40th birthday.
We met late in life, in February 2007. We were thrilled to have finally found each other after all these years. What was supposed to be the start of our wonderful, new life together turned out to be a tragic ending. I was devastated. It all seemed so surreal.
I had to return home to New Jersey without my husband; but thankfully, I did not fly home alone. My husband and I met a woman who was traveling alone from Reno, Nevada during a day trip that we took earlier in the week. Her name was Zhanna and she was staying at the same hotel. She was going to the airport on the same day we were leaving, and we offered to give her a ride to the airport with us.
After she found out what happened to my husband that morning, Zhanna came right down to the beach to be with me by my side and later sat with me in my hotel room all day. When the police and the chaplain came to help me make the travel arrangements to go home the following day, I told them that I am dreading that long and awful flight home all by myself. Without hesitation, Zhanna offered to travel to NJ with me to keep me company and she would go home to Reno the next day. She was already away from home for 9 days, and she gave up going home to see her husband and her baby.
Zhanna sat next to me on the plane, held my hand and wiped away my tears. It was the kindest and most selfless thing that any stranger has ever done for me in my life. I will always remember her and her kindness. She was there for me during the worst moment of my life. She was my angel. We continue to keep in touch today.
It has been one year now and what a tough journey it has been. The pain and the loneliness can be so unbearable at times. I cried every single day for the first 9 months. I miss and think about my husband all the time.
I feel a lot of anger that I waited all my life for my true love only to have him taken away from me like this. All the hopes and dreams of our future and starting a family together were ripped away from me. Life is so unfair. Now, without any hopes or dreams, I struggle to make it through each day - just one day at a time.

SAPA Building Systems have launched the new Crown patio door system which is a direct replacement for the industry leading Monaframe Patio door available in two, three and four pane configurations.
For those familiar with the Monaframe system, this was arguably the finest residential aluminium patio door system on the market and led the way for well over 20 years. SAPA have had to modify the product due to the 1st October changes in the building regulations and whilst the new Crown patio visually has similar sight lines there have been some inevitable changes and omissions on the current product compared to the favoured original.
The profile sizes have had to increase due to the profiles now having a polyamide thermal break instead of the previous resin/pour and cut variety.
Front to back dimensions have increased from 96mm to 120mm on the head, 96 to 118mm on the jambs and 161 to 139mm on the cill. The interlock is now 51mm on the face. I forsee situations where this incresed frame depth will result in some additional work being required to the internal finishes of profiles. I dont believe this is an error on the part of SAPA, more what they had to do to the profiles to achieve the Energy Rating required to meet the building regs.
The significant change from the original Monaframe patio is that the system is no longer manufactured around the glass. Very good news indeed for the fabricator, the trade supplier, the installer and now simple unglazed frames can be taken to site. The door is beaded on three sides of each pane meaning that the glass is part shuffle glazed into the pocket opening and then beaded in the normal way.
Aluminium profiles are extruded from aluminium alloy 6063 or 6060 T6 complying with the recommendations of BS EN 755-9:2001. Polyester powder coat finishes are available to BS EN 12206-1:2004 in a wide range of colours. Anodised finish is to BS 3987 Grade AA25 etch silver. The major benefit now is that due to the polyamide, the patio is now available in either single or dual colour powder coated options. A must for today's modern installations. Colours available are White, Black, White/Black, Silver Anodised, Single colour powder coated and Dual colour powder coated.
Weatherstripping is a woven pile internally and externally, set in undercut grooves in the frame. The thermal barrier is achieved using two polyamide extrusions separating the internal and external faces. Frame members are square cut and shouldered (where necessary). Joints are secured using stainless self tapping screws into screw ports extruded into the profile. The thermal barrier section is achieved using two separate aluminium extrusions and polyamide extrusions mechanically jointed to form a single compound profile.
Crown Patio Doors can meet and surpass the area weighted average U values stipulated in Part L of the Building Regulations. Lower U-values can be achieved using double glazed units with enhanced thermal insulation, such as 'soft coat' low emissivity glass, argon gas filling and thermally enhanced spacer bar. The patio meets parts L1B of the buiding regs for existing dwellings with a unit centre pane value of 1.0, 1.1 or 1.2.
Panels slide on adjustable stainless steel tandem rollers. Panels are locked using a multipoint lock with 6 hooks into a full length keep. Both lock and keep are mild steel zinc plated to give corrosion resistance of Grade 4 in accordance with BS EN 1670. Handles and panel stops are zinc die castings.
Double glazed units of 24mm, 28mm and 32mm can be accommodated.Drainage meets the requirements of "Ventilated and Drained Glazing System", as specified in BS6262. Glass is set against extruded self adhesive Nitrile rubber gaskets retained in the aluminium sash profile for security. Final retention of the glass is achieved by the application of a co-extruded PVCu / Nitrile wedge gasket between the inner face of the glass and the bead.
The performance specification is impressive with the Crown Patio meeting UK exposure category 1200.
Water Tightness Air Permeability Wind Resistance is Class 7A (300 Pascals) Class 2 (300 Pascals) Class A2 (800 Pascals)
The new crown patio has had the size limitations increased over the old system.
2 pane patios:
Maximum height = 2500mm Minimum height = 1830mm
Maximum width = 3230mm
Minimum width = 1530mm
3 Pane patios:
Maximum height = 2500mm
Maximum width = 4810mm
Minimum width = 2260mm
4 Pane
Maximum height = 2500mm
Maximum width = 6408mm
Minimum width = 3009mm
Max weight per sliding panel = 80Kg.
There is a six point locking system now, the previous shootbolt locking has been superceded and all doors come as standard with a high security euro cylinder available in silver or chrome. Anti-lift blocks are now standard across the range.
The handle arrangement differs greatly from the previous Monaframe with a more contemporary handle being fitted and now available in White, Silver, Polished Steel and Polished Gold. Some might find the lever used to activate the multi-point locking slightly on the small side but it is definitely a more contemporary and attractive handle.
A major change is the new trickle vent arrangement. Gone is the old hood vent at the top of the entire door, there is now a trickle vent which internally looks like any typical window vent to the inside of the rail on the fixed panel. Externally there is a grille/mesh arrangement which appears to be the only solution bearing in mind the sliding leaf now has to slide in front of the trickle vent. Some may consider it untidy or attractive especially with the fixing of the outer grille.
At present there appears to be no midrail (or midrail/letterplate availablity) which is an oversight presently, bearing in mind how many thousands of these patios over the years have been installed in Porch arrangements acting as a main entrances to a dwelling swith the patio door having a midrail and a letterplate. I hope they will introduce one soon.
Another omission currently from the patio is a suitable coupling arrangement to enable the patio to meet window and door systems or indeed conservatory roof systems. The problem could be overcome with commercially available T, H or Z sections to close off the back of the profiles, however SAPA will no doubt introduce a coupling arrangement to integrate the Crown patio with the rest of their product range soon.
Finally, there is no hardwood subframe option with this patio door system and therefore anyone familiar with the old 'woodfix" patio may struggle to find an alternative. Certainly, the feedback from the trade is that there has to be this option.
Pricing is higher than the original Monaframe patio door but understandably so due to the polyamide and the differing sections. SAPA do have quite a hefty minimum paint charge on single and dual colour options, meaning that if you have a small contract with coloured patio, resi doors and windows the trade would be hit with quite a lot of paint surcharges. On the other hand however, the aluminium industry is familiar with minimum paint surcharges.
Visually it is not that much different from the original. Some would say having glazing beads on three sides of the pane only looks a bit odd, however on a two pane this is quite symmetrical on the opposite pane of a 2pane patio. The inner gasket looks thicker than before too. One frustrating feature of the patio is the clip in sections at the jamb, which if you tap them, do rattle, however fabricator feedback to SAPA may resolve this in the future. Installers may choose to silicone seal these in. On the version I saw also, the back of the section at the head where it met the door stop had become dented and damaged. Again this needs addressing as homeowners are bound to pick up on this.
In summary, the new Crown patio is a good product which is already selling very well, however it will be very easy to continuously make comparisons against the original Monaframe patio. Some may consider it nowhere near as good however that is an unfair comparison to improve on a massively successful original concept within the confines of also meeting the requirements of the new building regulations. The beaded arrangement is an excellent improvement – one which will assist installers in site calls to replace broken units without having to take the whole door apart and easier supply to the trade as an unglazed product.
SAPA are an excellent systems with a very good reputation and I really do hope they listen to fabricator feedback on the new Crown Patio. Equally, feel free to comment on this posting.
Deliveries of this product have only just started to hit the market in fabricated form, so pictures of installations to follow soon.

Agency Response Letter GRAS Notice No. GRN 000316
Return to inventory listing: GRAS Notice Inventory
See also Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS) and about the GRAS Notice Inventory
CFSAN/Office of Food Additive Safety

Covington & Burling LLP
1201 Pennsylvania Avenue, N.W.
Washington, DC 20004
Re: GRAS Notice No. GRN 000316
Dear Ms. Guggenheim:
The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) is responding to the notice, dated January 7, 2010, that you submitted on behalf of ICL Performance Products LP (ICL) in accordance with the agency's proposed regulation, proposed 21 CFR 170.36 (62 FR 18938; April 17, 1997; Substances Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS); the GRAS proposal). FDA received the notice on January 8, 2010, filed it on January 8, 2010, and designated it as GRAS Notice No. GRN 000316.
The subject of the notice is sodium potassium hexametaphosphate (SKMP). The notice informs FDA of the view of ICL that SKMP is GRAS, through scientific procedures, for use in food generally, including meat and poultry products, to achieve a variety of technical effects in food at levels in accordance with current good manufacturing practices (GMP).
ICL describes the chemical identity and composition of SKMP (also known as glassy sodium potassium phosphate, or metaphosphoric acid sodium potassium salt). The notifier identifies SKMP by the Chemical Abstracts Service Registry Number 67183-30-6, with an empirical formula (Na, K)(n+2)PnO(3n+1) (where n is approximately 14), and average molecular weight approximately 1670. ICL describes SKMP as amorphous, glassy, colorless or white granules that are very soluble in water.
ICL states that SKMP is prepared from an aqueous solution containing food grade phosphoric acid, potassium hydroxide, and sodium hydroxide or sodium carbonate. The solution is heated in a furnace to evaporate the water to form a product that on cooling forms into a solid amorphous glass, which is then milled and screened to obtain the appropriate granule size for use as a food ingredient. The notifier provides specifications for food grade SKMP, including phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) content, and limits for lead and arsenic.
ICL states that the use of SKMP would be the same as the uses for sodium hexametaphosphate, listed as GRAS for use as a sequestrant in accordance with GMP in 21 CFR 182.6760. ICL also notes that the use of SKMP is not expected to increase the overall consumption of phosphate; it will likely be used to replace sodium hexametaphosphate in reduced-sodium food applications.
As part of the safety review of SKMP in GRN 000316, ICL incorporates by reference the safety review of phosphates conducted by the Select Committee on GRAS Substances (SCOGS).(1) The 1975 SCOGS report (SCOGS-32), reviewed the safety of phosphates including sodium hexametaphosphate. The Select Committee concluded that "[t]there is no evidence in the available information on …(a number of phosphates including sodium hexametaphosphate)… that demonstrates, or suggests reasonable grounds to suspect a hazard to the public when they are used at levels that are now current or might reasonably be expected in the future."
ICL states that after reviewing the SCOGS report, they have determined that the conclusions by the SCOGS regarding the GRAS status of the food grade phosphates remain valid. In support of this statement, ICL searched the publicly available literature several times, including the fall of 2009, and discovered no information that would impact the safety data for SKMP. ICL concludes that SKMP is GRAS when used in accordance with GMP based on: (1) the safety information on sodium hexametaphosphate reported in the SCOGS report, (2) dietary phosphate levels are not expected to increase, and (3) dietary potassium would only increase slightly in certain food applications.
Standards of Identity
In the notice, ICL states its intention to use SKMP in foods, including foods for which standards of identity exist, located in Title 21 of the Code of Federal Regulations. We note that an ingredient that is lawfully added to food products may be used in a standardized food only if it is permitted by the applicable standard of identity.
Use in Products under USDA Jurisdiction
During its evaluation of GRN 000316, FDA consulted with the Risk and Innovations Management Division (RIMD) of the Food Safety and Inspection Service (FSIS) of the United States Department of Agriculture. Under the Federal Meat Inspection Act, Poultry Products Inspection Act, and the Egg Products Inspection Act, FSIS is responsible for determining the efficacy and suitability of food ingredients in meat, poultry and egg products as well as prescribing safe conditions of use. Suitability relates to the effectiveness of the ingredient in performing the intended purpose of use and the assurance that the conditions of use will not result in an adulterated product, or one that misleads consumers.
FSIS advised that numerous phosphates have been approved by FSIS for use in meat and poultry products to decrease the amount of cooked out juices. FSIS has considered GMP for phosphates for application to meat and poultry products to be up to 0.5 percent of product formulation. Therefore, FSIS would not have any objection to the use of SKMP in meat and poultry products, except where otherwise prohibited by the meat or poultry inspection regulations, to decrease the amount of cooked out juices, provided the phosphate does not exceed 0.5 percent of product formulation. FSIS further advised that, SKMP would need to be listed by its common or usual name in the ingredients statement on the label for any meat or poultry product in which it is used.
FSIS requested that FDA advise ICL to seek regulatory guidance from FSIS, RIMD, about the use of SKMP in meat and poultry products. ICL should direct such an inquiry to Dr. John M. Hicks, Jr., RIMD, Office of Policy and Program Development, Food Safety and Inspection Service, United States Department of Agriculture, George Washington Carver Center (GWCC), 5601 Sunnyside Avenue, Mail Stop 5271, Beltsville, MD 20705-5271. The telephone number for that office is (301) 504-0884 and the telefax number is (301) 504-0876.
Section 301 (ll) of the Federal Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act (FFDCA)
The Food and Drug Administration Amendments Act of 2007, which was signed into law on September 27, 2007, amends the FFDCA to, among other things, add section 301(ll). Section 301(ll) of the FFDCA prohibits the introduction or delivery for introduction into interstate commerce of any food that contains a drug approved under section 505 of the FFDCA, a biological product licensed under section 351 of the Public Health Service Act, or a drug or a biological product for which substantial clinical investigations have been instituted and their existence made public, unless one of the exemptions in section 301(ll)(1)-(4) applies. In its review of ICL's notice that SKMP is GRAS for the intended uses, FDA did not consider whether section 301(ll) or any of its exemptions apply to foods containing SKMP. Accordingly, this response should not be construed to be a statement that foods that contain SKMP, if introduced or delivered for introduction into interstate commerce, would not violate section 301(ll).
Based on the information provided by ICL, as well as other information available to FDA, the agency has no questions at this time regarding ICL's conclusion that SKMP is GRAS under the intended conditions of use. The agency has not, however, made its own determination regarding the GRAS status of the subject use of SKMP. As always, it is the continuing responsibility of ICL to ensure that food ingredients that the firm markets are safe, and are otherwise in compliance with all applicable legal and regulatory requirements.
In accordance with proposed 21 CFR 170.36(f), a copy of the text of this letter responding to GRN 000316, as well as a copy of the information in this notice that conforms to the information in the GRAS exemption claim (proposed 21 CFR 170.36(c)(1)), is available for public review and copying via the FDA home page at http://www.fda.gov. To view or obtain an electronic copy of the text of the letter, follow the hyperlinks from the "Food" topic to the "Food Ingredients and Packaging" section to the "Generally Recognized as Safe (GRAS)" page where the GRAS Inventory is listed.

VIDEO: Plastic Surgery Obsessed Singing Group "The Plastics"
You might've heard about these people individually, but it looks like their strange fascination with plastic surgery has brought them together. Umm...Yay? Good for them? Bad for us... because now the world has this horrible, horrible song in it. The guy that spent loads of money to "look like" Justin Bieber, the woman who wanted to look like Jennifer Lawrence and failed miserably, and some lady who is obsessed in attempting (attempting being the key word here) to look like "Queen M"... is... that... Madonna? I can't tell because the plastic surgery is THAT bad.
People have too much time and money on their hands.
