Found this years ago in a New England thrift store...I know I paid less than $10 for it, but was highly impressed with the artist's talent. The painting has an illustrative look to it, I think. Prince Valiant? I have yet to "get it"... truly is a mystery.

The 'Keeping Up with the Kardashians' star shares a photo of her niece holding a piece of her jewelry, writing, 'This little cutie stole my earring!'
North West apparently likes her auntie's earring. On Tuesday, April 8, Khloe Kardashian shared a cute photo of baby Nori's hand holding her Chanel earring. The "Keeping Up with the Kardashians" star captioned the photo, "This little cutie stole my earring! I ain't mad at you North! #AuntieKoKo."
Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's daughter has received various gifts from designers, but the baby's mother recently told People that comfort was the most important. "North has actually not worn anything designer yet! Comfort is everything. Kids get dirty. She'll spit up. She moves around so much. I saw this one cute dress that was $500 and I was like, 'Absolutely not!' I just want her in little onesies or leggings," Kim said.
In other news, the little girl's mother recently made headlines with her curvy figure. Kim's photos from a bikini photoshoot in Thailand recently made their way online. In the photos, Kim can be seen flaunting her assets while striking various poses. Wearing a nude-colored bikini, she lied on her stomach on the beach.
Kim was most recently seen on Tuesday when she went to a gym. She wore a pair of Spandex workout pants which tightly hugged her figure. She also wore a black jacket and a pair of sunglasses during the outing.

Quick hitters from USC's spring game Saturday at the Coliseum:
** The first-team defense controlled the action early before the offense responded late against the reserves. Especially impressive defenders included Nick Perry, DaJohn Harris, Marquis Simmons and Dallas Kelley.
** Top receiver Robert Woods did not play after spraining his ankle playing basketball Friday. Receiver Brandon Carswell (concussion) and tight end Rhett Ellison (back) also went down, and the passing game struggled as a result. Quarterback Matt Barkley completed only 22 of 42 passes for 212 yards with no touchdowns and two interceptions.
** The running game got going after a slow start. Curtis McNeal, D.J. Morgan and Dillon Baxter all had their moments, averaging a collective 7.3 yards per carry. Morgan missed most of the second half because of a shoulder injury.
** Tailback Marc Tyler did not play. He's still recovering from a concussion.
** Xavier Grimble, subbing for Ellison, had a strong game, catching a team-high eight passes for 73 yards.
** Receiver Markeith Ambles bounced back from two early drops to catch six passes for 76 yards.
** Freshman quarterback Max Wittek, who had been wearing No. 13, wore No. 19 for the spring game.
** The attendance was announced as 16,850.

These are the most comfortable earplugs I have come across so far. As a landscaper, I find that earmuffs get too hot during the summer months. I use these instead. They keep my ears cooler and a good NRR. The cord keeps me from losing them all the time.

Rhonda Vincent Brings Bluegrass to Cal U
7:30 p.m. November 15
NEW VENUE: Steele Hall Mainstage Theatre
Folk Arts & Crafts in the Steele Hall lobby
Bluegrass comes to the Mon Valley with an appearance by award-winning artist Rhonda Vincent at 7:30 p.m. Nov. 15 in Steele Hall Mainstage Theatre, on the campus of California University of Pennsylvania.
The concert has been moved to Steele Hall, an acoustically excellent, theatre-style venue.
Advance ticket-holders will receive comparable seating. On the night of the performance, tickets will be available at the Convocation Center Box Office, and patrons will be directed to nearby Steele Hall.
'Queen of Bluegrass'
Influenced by rock, pop and jazz, contemporary bluegrass is one of the nation's fastest-growing musical genres — and Vincent takes it to new heights.
Rhonda Vincent and the Rage is the most decorated band in bluegrass, with more than 70 IBMA awards, and the International Bluegrass Music Association has named Vincent its Female Vocalist of the Year for an unprecedented seven years in a row.
The Wall Street Journal calls her "… the NEW Queen of Bluegrass," and a Billboard critic describes her as "too good to be mortal." The Buffalo News raves, "… She is to bluegrass what Aretha Franklin once was to soul music."
Rhonda Vincent comes to Cal U after making stops at the Starlight Theater in Branson, Mo., and the Greater Downstate Music Festival in Springfield, Ill.
See the Mon River Ramblers
Opening for Rhonda Vincent is Pittsburgh's homegrown bluegrass band the Mon River Ramblers. 'Burgh favorites since 2006, the five-piece Ramblers play a mix of traditional bluegrass, rag-time, jazz, blues, folk, punk and rock, all infused with tight pickin' that keeps their brand of fiery bluegrass music innovative and fresh.
Tickets for Vincent's performance at California University are on sale for $19 or $29; Cal U students, faculty and staff get a $5 discount. Tickets are available at all Ticketmaster outlets, online at www.calucenter.com, or at the Convocation Center box office, open 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday-Friday.
Parking is available in the River Lot (Lot #4). Handicapped parking is available in Lot #7 and Lot #8, behind Steele Hall.
Folk Arts & Crafts
Celebrate the region's folk arts and crafts in the Steele Hall lobby. Local crafters and artisans will have their wares on display from 4:30 p.m. until the concert begins.
Pay by cash or check at the Convocation Center Box Office, open 9 a.m.-4 p.m. Monday-Friday; call 724-938-4600.
To charge by phone, call 1-800-745-3000, or order online at Ticketmaster.

STUTTGART (Dec. 5)
Leaders of Jewish communities in Western Germany conferred today over the appointment of a Jewish representative to the new Western German Federal Republic at Bonn. No final decision was reached.
Rabbis representing the larger Jewish communities in Western Germany will meet in Frankfurt tomorrow to formulate plans for reviving the religious and cultural activities of the Jews. Rabbi Isaac Klein, now serving in a liaison capacity for the Synagogue Council of America with the Allied Commission on Religious Affairs, said that definite steps will be taken leading to the recreation of Jewish institutions in Western Germany.
A telegram of felicitations on his 75th birthday was dispatched to Israel President Chaim Weizmann by Dr. Christian Stock, Minister President of Hesse. He recalled in the message that period when Dr. Weizmann taught at the Israelite Institute of Pfungstadt, Hesse, the birthplace of the Hesse Minister.

Resource Nationalism - Limits to Foreign Direct Investment
Despite a global trend toward the privatization of state assets, host governments are consolidating ownership over strategically important domestic oil and gas resources, effectively limiting corporate foreign direct investment. These findings are supported by an analysis of global reserve acquisitions for the period 2000 Ð 2006, a period which saw listed national oil companies (NOCs) acquire over 82% of their reserves domestically, compared to only 25% for commercial operators. We also perform a regression analysis and find that political risk and reserve size are strongly related to state ownership retention, while the degree of state control is positively related to OPEC membership. Foreign direct investment is shown to be increasingly constrained to assets in low-risk developed countries or marginal oilfield assets.

Have Parenting Questions? Ask a Parenting Counselor for Answers
Hi. Welcome. I am a Licensed Master Social Worker with more than 20 years experience working with individuals and families. I am also a mom of Twins.
Much of what he is experiencing is normal for his age...kids go through this stage of separation anxiety in different ways. His could be a little more difficult as you have moved around a lot and this may cause some upset within him which could cause him to want to be in his mommies arms a lot.
Reassurance can go a long way but also keeping to a schedule so that if you need to go out and do things, that you continue to do so and remind him that you always come back....sing a little song about mommy coming back and when you do come back reassure him that mommy and daddy always come back.
these stages can be very hard when you are in them but all of you will get though this with some patience, reassurance and just the natural passing of time through this very normal stage.
Make sure he is on a consistent and predictable schedule so his anxiety isn't increased.
I will wait for you to come online so we can talk.
We want to thank you for your help. We do not leave him, for we take him with us where ever we go. We are wondering should we more or less talk to him and try not to have him Mom be the sole comforter?
Actually the nanny will take them for walks and the park for 2 hours each day, so we are not with him all the time.
I think that going out for short periods of time can begin to teach him that all is okay while you are both out and that you return. The goal is for him to develop the ability to self soothe and to gain some independence....by him being with you all the time it will be hard for him to develop these skills.
ok thats good
He is fine when going out, or if his Mom is out of sight. But as soon as he see her, he wants to be in her arms a lot.
this is normal and this is when she can give him the love and encouragement and try and redirect that energy to playing alongside him and getting him involved in an activity he loves.
I think the separation is hard for him so that when she returns he is afraid of her leaving again so he clings to her more.
We will sometimes catch up with them at the park and before he sees his Mom he is not crying, and the nanny says he was playing and having fun and not crying at all, but as soon as she shows up he starts crying.
gentle reassurance can help here.
I agree with what you are saying.
that is very normal. I would say if he is at the park with
the nanny then let them be at the park and dont go...he is doing well and it is natural to see his mommy and cry and then only want to be with her.
So we really should be allowing the Mom to hold him all the time, and comfort him and reassure him.
I dont think he should be held all the time...I think a hug and reassurance is great and then encouragement to play and sit beside each other.
So sit him down, and talk and comfort him but no hold him?
he needs to gain some independence while knowing that mommy is near but that he can do things on his own
I would hold him and give him the comfort but I would not suggest holding him endlessly....its just not realistic
hold him for a bit and let him feel safe and then in a happy voice say lets go over here and play with your trucks or color...show me how you color...or something like that.
So far it is mainly her holding him until he calms down.
and that is okay but she cant hold him forever. mommy is always safest and that is okay.
We do try to take his attention away to happy things, and talk about fun things we will be doing and all.
she holds him gives him reassurance and then gives encouragement to show her something he has done...his sense of pride will develop this way and he will be excited to show her what he has accomplished while she was away
you are doing a great job. All of this is normal behavior.
Thanks for your help, and have a great day!
my pleasure. Please take a moment to click on the rating tab to offer a rating of my work. i am here if you need anything in the future.
Can i support you any further now?
Nothing more for we just wanted to make sure we were doing the right thing, which was giving him lots of comfort. What we have learned from our chat is he needs to be sitting down and spoken to more instead of in my wife's arms.
I dont think spoken to is the way to go

DANVILLE — In the last several years, the state has cut the amount it pays for salaries at juvenile detention centers around the state, including centers in Vermilion and Champaign counties.
Vermilion County had to pick up those additional personnel expenses to keep its juvenile detention center open, which created a drain on the county's general fund. But revenue to the public safety building fund can't be increased proportionate to the additional expenses, because the fund's property tax rate is capped, and the county is already taxing at that cap.
So, in November 2011, the county shifted the Vermilion County Juvenile Detention Center's approximately $3 million in expenses from the general fund to the public safety building fund, which also covers expenses of the county jail. That resulted in an $802,070 deficit in the public safety building fund, and this fiscal year, the deficit is expected to be $1.14 million.
Vermilion County Auditor Linda Lucas-Anstey said prior to the juvenile detention center being shifted to that fund, it was breaking even and at one time had a $6 million reserve.
On Wednesday, Lucas-Anstey said the reserve was $1 million, but a few weeks ago, it had dwindled to just $400,000. Revenues continue to come in as bills go out, accounting for the fluctuation from three weeks ago to this week. But, Lucas-Anstey said having only $400,000 was a concern, especially with a large payment looming and many weeks before property tax revenue is distributed to the county. The public safety building fund covers salaries and other expenses at the juvenile detention center and Vermilion County Jail, and Lucas-Anstey said she and Vermilion County Treasurer Sue Stine didn't want to be in a situation where they could not pay bills out of that fund.
So they asked the county to establish a $1.5 million line of credit from the county's general fund to the public safety building fund.
The county's personnel and finance committee and property committee will meet together at 5 p.m. today (Thursday, May 9) to consider whether to establish the line of credit. The committees, which meet on the third floor of the Vermilion County Courthouse Annex, 6 N. Vermilion St., Danville, will decide whether the proposal moves on to the full county board.
Vermilion County Board Chairman Gary Weinard said Lucas-Anstey and Stine met with him, and they decided to ask the county board to create the line of credit. It's a precautionary action, he said, adding that he doesn't know that it will or won't be necessary, but they want it there in case it is.
Weinard said if the line of credit were tapped, the general fund would have to be paid back, most likely out of the 2013 property tax revenues that will flow into the county coffers later this year. He said no interest would be charged, because it's money from one county fund to another.
The county has established lines of credit in the past, Weinard said, so there's a precedent.
Lucas-Anstey said a $400,000 balance is low enough that it could pose a problem in making payroll if other revenues don't flow in at the right time. She said monthly expenses in that account are $350,000 to $500,000.
Basically, Weinard said it's a cash-flow situation.
Lucas-Anstey also said she doubts they will have to touch the line of credit.
"But we want something in place, so we could still pay for the food and salaries... and maybe we are being a little paranoid, but being here as long as I have, it's easier to be proactive," she said.
But long-term, Lucas-Anstey said, expenses in the public safety building fund are now outpacing revenues, so the county needs to consider boosting the property tax revenue into that fund.
That was not unexpected in late 2011 when the county switched the detention center from the general fund to the public safety fund, because the public safety fund does not have a property tax cap like the general fund. The county has already increased the public safety building portion of the property tax levy from a rate of 0.44 cents per $100 of assessed value in 2011, which generated $3.7 million, to .61 cents per $100 in 2012, which generated $5 million and .62 cents this year, which is expected to generate $5 million again this year.

The Survivors Network of those Abused by Priests, SNAP, is in dire straits, basically broke, still dogged by lawyers who want to pry deeply into that organization's files.
The national media has finally caught up with that story. Defenders are coming forward. Even unlikely ones.
Dominican Fr. Tom Doyle argues on our website that SNAP needs protection from the bishops' laywers because SNAP meets the definition of being "The People of God."
When news of the subpoenas broke late last year, NCR defended SNAP's right to confidentiality. We said in a Jan. 20-Feb. 2 editorial: "This certainly looks like a fishing expedition aimed at dismantling the organization, and lawyers keep climbing on board." The subpoenas, we argued, were too sweeping and put at risk that very fragile confidence SNAP has with victims of clergy sex abuse.
With word now from SNAP director David Clohessy that the legal defense has financially strapped the organization, it seems our worst fears may be realized, that "the advocacy group will be irreparably harmed and victims of clergy sexual abuse will have lost a key ally in their fight for justice."
SNAP's fate is again in the hands of a Missouri county judge. I would hope she takes the full measure of SNAP's unique importance to defending victims against overwhelming adversaries and tell the lawyers that one deposition is enough.

When I was a little girl, I visited my grandparents very often in Baranovichy, Belarus. Every spring they would plant a large garden. I would help them sort though the packets of seeds and then drop them into the warm, tilled soil. I was so excited to watch as the little green leaves would sprout throught the ground, loooking for sunshine.
During the summer, the bountiful garden would feed us many delicious meals. As soon as the beets were big enough to pull, we would make cold Beet Holodnik. Holodnik literally translates to "cold soup". It is the perfect dish to enjoy on a hot summer day. Full of refreshing, garden vegetables, crunchy cucumbers, sweet beets, lemon juice and fresh herbs, this is one of the most authentic meals of my heritage. We always served a bowl of potatoes on the side. It is especially perfect with new potatoes, dug up from the same garden. Garnished with caramelized onions and bacon, this is one of my husband's favorite summer meals. You can also garnish the potatoes with melted butter, minced garlic and fresh dill and chives.
Yields: 6-8 servings
6-7 cups water
1-2 beets (1 large or 2 medium beets), roasted
2 Tablespoons lemon juice
4 cucumbers, chopped
6 hard-boiled eggs, chopped, How to Hard-Boil Eggs Perfectly
fresh herbs, dill, chives, minced
sour cream, for garnishing
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Wash the beets, cut off the tops, drizzle with a little bit of oil, season with salt and completely cover in aluminum foil. Roast for 30 minutes to an hour, depending on the size of the beets. The beets should be soft. I always check for doneness by piercing a wooden skewer through the beets. If the skewer peirces easily through the beets, they are done. Roasting beets intensifies their flavor and sweetness. It also leaves all the vitamins in the beets, unlike cooking them, since a lot of the nutrients will be lost in the water.
Roasted beets are also very easy to peel. When they are cool enough to handle, the skin easily rubs off using paper towels or your hands. You can also use a paring knife. Grate the beets on a box grater. Combine the beets in the water with lemon juice. Adding lemon juice not only adds a refreshing note to the soup, but will also keep the color of the beets a bring, vivid color. Bring to a boil. Season with salt. Cool down the soup, refrigerate until completely cold. You can make this ahead of time, or, if you're in a hurry, fill the sink with ice and place the pot of soup right in the ice, which will hurry up the cooling.
To see how to hard boil eggs, click here. When ready to serve, chop the hard boiled eggs. Chop the cucumbers also. Seed the cucumbers by scooping out the seeds with a spoon, if the seeds are large. Add the eggs, cucumbers and fresh herbs to the soup. We Russians always garnish this soup with sour cream. You can add a spoonful of sour cream to each bowl or add the sour cream to the whole soup. Serve with a bowl of boiled new potatoes.

Way up in the far northwest corner of Argentina is a cowboy heartland, the true Wild West of Salta. It boasts the country's finest colonial city, also called Salta, lying in a fertile subtropical valley surrounded by mountainous cactus deserts. Only Jujuy (pronounced "HooHooey") lies between it and the Tropic of Capricorn and Bolivia.
General Martín Miguel de Güemes, Salta's favourite son, won the crucial gaucho wars during the battle for independence in the early 19th century, and since then, Salta has gone its own way. It is the Texas of Argentina.
The colonial main square has the cabildo, or town hall, at one side and the cathedral at the other. The lively cloistered pavements are packed with shoeshine boys, kiosks and cafes, where old men drink coffee and maté (the national green tea), chew coca and recite from the epic gaucho poem Martín Fierro.
The ochre cathedral houses miraculous statues of Jesus and the Virgin, the patrons of Salta. The Virgin cried real tears and was paraded with Jesus, stopping an earthquake and saving the old colonial city for generations of tourists to come. Inside, everything is golden. Gaudy is too sombre a word for it. At the far end, past marble, gold and red plush, are three golden altars. In the centre, a gold and marble wedding cake rises to a celestial sun palace with a gigantic sunburst halo behind it. The Virgin is equally encased in gold with cherubs, angels, sunbeams and doves. Opposite, Jesus is a vision in gilt. It is a divine Eldorado.
Around both are cases full of tiny silver body parts, effigies of infirmity tacked up as hopes for recovery. An eye for an eye, a leg for a leg. These little silver promesas are sold in the local santerias , or saint shops. Every part of the body is available, from right breast to left kidney. Babies, horses, noses, bowels, cats and families of any size. Great gifts. Outside, the San Francisco church goes beyond baroque, bright scarlet and white, eclipsing all. It is so astonishing outside that I have never dared look inside.
I was staying at Finca Santa Anita in the fertile Lerma valley, about 45 minutes' drive from Salta, glowing green and pink and hot in the heart of tobacco country where winter never calls. Carlos Lewis, its owner, grows tobacco, raises cattle and goats, and lets out rooms.
Wallowing on a sheepskin saddle, I rode a Peruvian horse through lush farmlands with Onassis, a young Salteño gaucho. A slash across his cheek was from churqui thorns in Salta's spiky monte, brushwood that cuts and tears. For protection, Onassis wore the most exuberant of all cowboy gear, stiff rawhide guardamontes mounted on his horse like elephant ears flapping out in front of his legs.
Walking round Carlos's herb garden, he showed me how to chew coca respectfully, leaf by leaf, instead of stuffing a wodge in the cheek. At 4,000ft, surrounded by mountains, it is part of Salta life. The leaves help combat altitude sickness but are only a mild stimulant, less than maté. Later, men came delivering it round the restaurants as we tucked into our humitas , or corn salads. Then I noticed more and more people with lumpy cheeks, like chipmunks.
The food is more Indian up here with different choclo , or corn dishes. We switched from meat to empanadas (pasties), and humitas and tamales - the latter, mashed corn wrapped and steamed in corn leaves. It all sounds a bit monochromatic, but it's very tasty and cheap, especially at the Corredor de la Empanada. If you want nothing but meat, Don Martín has all the organic cuts you may require, grilled to perfection. Our personal meat mountain had steaks, ribs, black pudding, sweetbreads and chinchulines , or crispy intestines. Don't be scared. Try them.
For eight years, I had been dreaming of the Train to the Clouds, one of the world's highest rail journeys. It wasn't working again, but there was another way to travel up to 14,000ft and the high Puna beyond. MoviTrack is a giant 4x4 monster Mercedes. The roofs pull back and you can stand on your seat, head and shoulders out, touching the sky. Driving across the roasting shimmering white salt flats of the high plateau, or puna , close to the tropics, we were at the same height as the Bolivian altiplano, with 20,000ft peaks over us.
Snaking down the road into the Quebrada of Purmamarca, one of Salta and Jujuy's amazing gorges, there are fluted red rock organ pipes hanging like fringes round a huge green copper mountain. Purmamarca itself, a leafy colonial oasis with a thousand-year-old carob tree, lies in the lee of a seven-coloured mountain. It's almost too much, overwhelming like a landscape version of Venice.
There are more canyons, quebradas , and celestial scenery on a circuit through the Calchaqui Valleys to Cachi and Cafayate. The man who showed us this wonderland was Elvio, an enthusiastic Salteño. Did we want the arid Wild West again or more subtropical rainforest at Finca El Rey? We had already explored the jungle at Iguazu. Go West!
Under another scorching blue sky, we drove up into the mountains. Soon, the red soil was burning in the hillsides, with glorious cardon cacti everywhere. Cardon are centuries old and entrancing, like the mythical saguaro of western deserts. They say each cactus is an Indian's soul, and forests of them grow out of sites of past settlements. When a cardon is wounded, it grows an arm raised to heaven, the Indian's spirit praying for an end to the slaughter.
A fine white fuzz on top of the cardon glows a silvery halo in the fierce unfiltered sunlight of the high plateau. Gauchos call an old man "cactus white head". The perforated cardon wood is used in the roofs and pulpits of many of the little country churches. The lovely church at Cachi has a speckled cactus-wood confessional.
Overshadowed by Mendoza, Salta nevertheless produces exceptional wine - I had already tasted some incredible stuff from Colomé, at 8,000ft the world's highest winery. And when I discovered it was only another 20km from our overnight accommodation in the 18th-century colonial governor's house at Molinos, we were on our way.
It was a long 20km, however - across the desert and a treacherous sandy road. But without blinking an eye, Elvio wrenched his car, juddering and skidding round the snaking track like a wild horse, kicking up dust and racing past big mesetas - high western bluffs of vertical red rock. It was a wide desiccated valley, hot and thorny. Now and then, a small stream would make an oasis with trees, corn and vines, and then the desert would take over again.
A t Colomé, we sat in the spreading shade of an ancient willow until our guide Santiago shuffled out to show us round the cluster of old adobe buildings that is the winery. Organic, I think, is the word. In the cool of the adobe, Santiago dipped into barrels and big concrete vats with a bamboo ladle and we tasted Torrontes, a sweetish white from an obscure Galician grape, and fine cabernet malbec from vines planted out here in 1834 - an astonishingly intense, old-fashioned-wine.
Then we went rolling down some of the dustier, more rustic parts of the great Pan American Highway, the twisted spine of Argentina, as it wound through the cactuses and vineyards and mesetas of the Calchaqui valley. Every tiny pueblo in the shimmering desert had a chapel and a rudimentary football pitch with goalposts. "Football is as important as the church," said Elvio.
The scenery was the Wild West as we crossed Arrowhead Gorge, magnificent badlands filled with huge white arrowhead rocks thrusting tectonically out of the ground. Behind them stretched a blood red ridge and snow covered peaks. It is the most hallucinatory landscape I have ever seen. And in the high thin air, the sweet aphrodisiac smell of muña muña flowers.
Later in Cafayate, it was a different story. At Michel Torino's winery, all was modern and stainless. Tractors were rolling up with piles of grapes for the new $2m pressing and storage equipment. Screws like great stainless propellors turned and pipes sparkled. Output was high, marketing was all and some of the wine was good.
Elvio is big on the Bee Gees but loves his local folk music. Salteño music is cowboy mountain music. They dance the chacarera and sing the slow sad zamba. A big bass drum, a bombo , booms out lugubriously. A bass voice intones a story before a falsetto, the Baguala voice, comes in yodelling. This is the Andean high lonesome sound, wild horse singing. With the voices, guitars and echoing bombo , it is pure Once Upon A Time In The West.
I heard local heroes Los Chalchaleros play live in the old colonial cabildo , under a picture of the heroic General Güemes and his gaucho cavalry racing past the blood-red mountains on their wild-eyed baguals. In 1806, Guëmes even convinced the English that their invasion of Buenos Aires was pointless. Accompanied by only 30 gauchos, he rode on horseback into the river Plate and captured an entire English warship and crew. He died heroically, painfully and young.
Before we left, I got a shoeshine to clean off the desert. Elvio said the venerable man was The Legend, a guru among the shoeshining fraternity. Years of experience lay in his old fingers, a fact borne out by the fact that his shine was still on my boots a month later.

Alison is being honest with Vic about Aynsley's death, Mrs. S visits Dyad, and Rachel meets her father Ethan.
As Alison still grapples with the death of Aynsley, she finds a confidant in the wrong person. A preview for the next episode of "Orphan Black" shows Alison revealing to Vic that she committed a murder. "My neighbor Aynsley always thought she was better than me. ...Then I killed her," she bluntly says.
But Vic may not have a chance to tell anybody about this since he's seen collapsing into a craft room table with Sarah and Felix witnessing. "I may have spiked his tea," Felix says to a shocked Sarah.
In Dyad, Mrs. S pays a visit to Dr. Leekie. "I have something you want. It's your missing science, Dr. Leekie," she says. "What is it worth to you?" Meanwhile, Cosima and Delphine are having an argument, with the former saying, "This is my decision and not yours!" Delphine responds, "There is no decision, Cosima. You have one way forward, and this is it."
Elsewhere, Rachel finally meets her father Ethan, who recently told Sarah about Dr. Leekie's involvement in the death of Rachel's mother, Susan.
"Knowledge of Causes, and Secret Motion of Things" will air Saturday, May 31 at 9/8c on BBC America. According to the official synopsis, "When a rehab confidante betrays Alison and threatens to expose the truth about Aynsley's death, she goes into free fall on the eve of Family Day. With Donnie and the kids set to visit, it's all clones on deck to contain the fallout."
Co-creator John Fawcett recently talked about the return of Vic. "Well, Vic is a bit of a wildcard. Vic's always sort of showing up at inopportune moments and getting maimed for it. He's just a fun character because he kind of can bumble in at exactly the wrong time and wreak havoc," he told Entertainment Weekly.
"You have to see where that storyline is going. I think either way what is fun about Vic being in treatment with Alison is that we get to put those two together. Outside of what his other agenda is, if he has one, he and Alison kind of actually do sort of like each other."
Of whether Dr. Leekie is a good guy or a bad guy, he coyly said, "It wouldn't be fun if it was just a straightforward A to B to C connect the dots mystery, would it? There's a lot still to learn. I think the fact that Duncan is alive and is Rachel's father, essentially, is a big bomb to drop at the end, that Leekie is responsible for the lab fire that killed her mother."

How it's possible to miss four days of work yet have seven days worth of work to makeup is beyond me, but I'll be damned if that's not what I'm facing at the moment. Oh well, it's isn't going anywhere, so I'll try to get to at least some new stuff this afternoon. In the meantime:
Calcaterra's Law is in full effect: any paperwork and/or emails that sit unread on one's desktop for more than a week automatically moot themselves. Given that I have yet to be disbarred or sued for malpractice, I have no reason to believe that the law does not hold true 100% of the time.

Umasree Raghunath
A Carve For Freedom….From Chaos - Poem by Umasree Raghunath
Somethings are silently forgotten
With aging and distance driven
Somethings are hardly forgotten
Besides the storms and sharpens
Few people live in you for ever
Though you are never together
Few places loved by you for ever
Though you will never go for sure
Seldom a song is sung for all
The memories of childhood mall
Seldom a palate is filled for all
With the relishes of the past befall
Never thought that I am still alive
Unless I went back to the shore
Where I once happily lived and swayed
Marking that I am just still alive
Having lost every emotion of life
And suffered so much as a wife
My tolerance knew no bounds
But to silently cry within my heart
I have everything for a decent life
But not the one I really wanted
Every minute of the city is driven
Be it on road, for food or for sleep
Everything is controlled beyond me
Which I hate to be a part of thee
All I cherished is the freedom to live
Freedom to sleep, freedom to work
Freedom to speech, freedom to love
Now no freedom, to even breathe…..

WORK on building a new £50million cinema and restaurant complex in the heart of Bournemouth will start in a few months, developers have promised.
The developers of West Central say they are preparing to appoint contractors ready for work to start on the Exeter Road site in late spring.
Licet Developments hoped to start work last year, when they had finalised their funding and had major operators signed up to the scheme.
However, building plans were delayed when Bournemouth council decided it wanted to see a bus station built on the land instead and withdrew an offer to sell a small strip of council-owned land.
The council believed Licet would be unable to build its leisure scheme without the council land but Licet simply amended the design and successfully applied for planning permission.
Chris Dymond, Licet's director, said: "Major developments such as this do take time as it's really important that we get it just right to create the longed-for all weather leisure facility that will draw locals and visitors to spend time and money in the very heart of Bournemouth.
"So we're delighted that at last the formal paperwork is in place and we're now working closely with all partners to bring the plans to life."
Agreements are currently being concluded with leading restaurants including names that will be new to Bournemouth, as well as a major multiplex cinema operator. Names are due to be announced soon as agreements are finalised.
It's anticipated West Central will take around 18 months to build and will create 300 new jobs.
Nigel Hedges, president of the Chamber of Trade, said: "There are 16 prime sites waiting for redevelopment in the town centre, which will help strengthen our offer to residents and visitors.
"We now need to see a crane in the air because that will send out a signal that Bournemouth is open for business and acting on its vision."

Mental Health
Have Mental Health Questions? Ask a Psychiatrist Online
Thanks for bringing your question to JustAnswer.
I am so sorry for the pain and anger you're experiencing after losing your son. While I understand that you want something to take the pain away, Xanax is a poor choice. It is highly addictive. If you are convinced that you need an anti-anxiety medication for a short while, Klonopin would be a better choice, as it is a little less habit-forming. The only medication for anxiety that isn't habit forming is Buspar.
But honestly, no medication is going to make all this go away. You need a safe place to express the anger and pain you're experiencing. A bereavement counselor or grief group is going to help you get through this mourning in the healthiest way. Call your local hospice (even if they were not involved with your son) and ask about help with your grief. The government requires hospices to provide help for people in the community as well. It can be so comforting to be in a room full of people who know exactly what you're going through..and you can express yourself no holds barred.

Playboy, Atlantic City opens
Playboy, Atlantic City
Atlantic City, New Jersey
The Playboy Hotel, Atlantic City was developed and built in 1981 by Hugh Heffner's Playboy Enterprises and Elsinore Corporation. Playboy already operated a casino in London and was looking to exploit the new Atlantic City gaming market.
Las Vegas architect Martin Stern, Jr. had already established himself in Atlantic City with proposals for Del Webb's Sahara Boardwalk, another MGM Grand, and Bill Harrah's Marina (of these the Marina was the only one that was built). Stern designed a green glass tower with a three-level casino for Playboy, but had to shorten the tower from its original 33 stories to 22 after the Federal Aviation Board claimed that it would impede local air traffic.
The casino suffered financial difficulties from the start, and was eventually sold outright to Elsinore Corporation. The name was changed to the Atlantis Hotel and Casino in 1984, but the property went bankrupt in 1985. Donald Trump bought it in 1989, and closed the casino to operate the property solely as a hotel named the Trump Regency. The property was re-opened in 1996 as the Worlds' Fair at Trump Plaza, but after three years of failure, the entire building was demolished.

READY IN: 3hrs
Recipe by Karen From Colorado
Usually, chilaquiles are eaten at breakfast time. This makes them a popular recipe to use leftover tortillas and salsas. Chilaquiles are often thought to be a cure for the common hangover; this is because in Mexico it is believed that spicy foods help in the recovery process from a hangover.
See Discussion:

- 1 onion, quartered
- 2 garlic cloves
- 2 onions, finely chopped

The First Camera-Phone Picture
The Camera-Phone was born in Santa Cruz on June 11, 1997 at the Sutter Maternity Clinic.
Inventor Philippe Kahn was there with his wife, Sonia Lee. Philippe had been working on the technology components for an "instant visual communicator." After Sonia went into labor, Philippe completed the invention. He wired together his digital camera, his cellphone, and a laptop and ran the software he had developed. The server infrastructure allowed him to instantly share Sophie's birth picture with friends and family around the world. The architecture and design became the blueprint for today's social media.
The original picture is 240 by 320 pixels. It is available in three versions: Original, medium pixelated, large pixelated

The Anxiety of Dentists
Are you presently an individual who has dental panic? Do you worry to confront a dentist? Never stress you'll find lots of who can accompany you within this list of fearing the dentist. But exactly what is the reason which you panic to visit a dentist a lot of. I understand that we've been not so at ease in visiting our dentist Selen Tolu, DDS. It's considered one of essentially the most popular phobia and also a complicated a single to overcome.
Anyone wants their tooth to generally be cleanse and healthier. However, if you do not take a look at your dentist routinely, how will you assume your teeth to become clear and healthy and free from germs and cavities. When you steer clear of likely in your dentist you are going to experience some serious challenges in regards in your oral well being. If the concern to go to your dentist and you simply avoid viewing your dentist for any longer stretch of time, a time will come if you must finally see your dentist. At that point of time when it truly is mandatory to visit your dentist, you notice that even a smallest trouble can demand severe notice and involve a great deal of intervention and operate through the dentist to help keep your tooth healthful.
I know some previous experiences from your dentist and some perceptions of heard tales with regards to the dentist could trigger panic with your coronary heart and you would steer clear of browsing a dentist. But permit me let you know that not all dentists trigger their patient a bad knowledge. If you are going through a similar dilemma I might endorse you to request your pals and neighbors or any one whom you'll be able to believe in a few dentist whom they stop by and possess some fantastic ordeals. If anyone you have faith in suggests you a dentist that's trusted, then you need to take a look at that dentist.
A lot of the factors that can help you trust your dentist are surroundings in the clinic, how that dentist handles his consumer, suggestion out of your reliable ones. In case you use practical experience a balanced surroundings during the clinic within your dentist than it is actually quite achievable that he takes care of his clinic and his clients.
Speak to your dentist about your dental anxiousness and a few undesirable ordeals of yours. Allow them understand that you happen to be phobic to dentists and dental treatments. Constantly bear in mind that you're the a single that's paying out and it's not necessarily the dentist who really should handle you prefer no one. Your dentist must listen to you and may help you triumph over your panic issue. When your dentist will not hear to you or isn't thinking about anything you want to share about your dental panic, it is best to appear for another dentist. It's the responsibility of your dentist that he must help you chill out and trust him.
At times you might really need to handle your self with sedation. Sedition is often a variety of drug which is permitted by the government to simplicity stress also to settle down. With the assistance of sedation, dentist carries out numerous with the complex and straightforward operations. For those who concern the soreness that an extraction can cause, you must get your self addressed with regional anesthesia or IV sedation.

How do you handle carrying your wallet or purse or just your id, credit cards and wallet when you go on the water excursions? I have a couple excursions where you go from tour to water and back to touring. I was curious how some of you handle this.
There are waterproof pouches you can buy at sporting goods or travel shops, or onboard; you can put your I.D. and a little money in there and just wear it around your neck or on your wrist. Anything else can be locked in the bus or van.
The waterproof pouch is a good idea, I sometimes just put I.D. and a little cash in the pocket of my swim shorts, they have a Velcro type fastener, sure the cash gets wet but it still works for the odd beer or tips. We do not take passport ashore. We have never had any problems leaving cameras and bags on the bus or, if there are lockers at the water sport operator we use them. Sometimes the operator has a large dry bag you can use for the camera, he will take it along in the safety boat and then it is available when you stop to take pictures.
I agree with FMattox if you want to minimize what you bring, the pouch is an excellent idea. Unfortunately, I always seem to bring my video/camera case and that holds lots of stuff and the wife has one of her beach bags. We have been on lots of various water excursions and never (knock on wood) had anything end up in the ocean!

Dvorak's Blogging Primer
- Dvorak's Blogging Primer
- Blog Basics
Blog Basics
Blog layout. Blogs are laid out in a last-in-first-out style. This means that the last item posted or written is at the top of the blog. Very few blogs violate this model, since it earmarks the site as a blog, and the mechanism of the software encourages it by default. Online magazines that purport to be something else are actually blogs if they use this style, and are probably laid out with blogging software.
So unlike a diary, where you would read from the beginning to the end, with a blog you read from the end to the beginning. Highly advanced bloggers with programming skills can alter this as much as they want, but most have accepted the model and most readers expect it.
The post element. The blog post is also fairly standardized, with minor -idiosyncrasies stemming from the various kinds of blogging software systems and the options chosen within those systems. Generally most blog posts do not stray too much from the model I'm going to describe below.
A post tends to consist of nine possible subelements: headline, primary link, summary, commentary, image, blockquote, permalink, comments link, and comments (if any). Any combination is possible, and repeating elements are often used. Multiple blockquotes and commentary, for example, are common in lengthy, elaborate posts. Any of these subelements, except the headline, can be optional; the blog can substitute a summary or commentary for the link to the primary source. Some bloggers do nothing more than use a headline (which may be lifted from the primary source) and a link to the primary source. This is very bare-bones, but it is not uncommon. My typical post consists of a headline, which may or may not come from the primary source, a link to the source, a short comment about why I think it's important, spot art in the form of an image that reemphasizes the point, a pull quote from the primary source and a comment link. The headline created with the software I blog with, WordPress, is also the permalink.
The permalink, short for permanent link, is a link to the specific database location of this specific post. It never changes. The URL of the permalink is what you want to obtain if you want to forward the post to a friend or refer to it in your own blog. The general blog URL will bring up the whole blog, and not the specific postwhich is often further down the page or gone the next day.
The headline is the title of the post, and it is usually presented automatically in a large typeface. Some people write their own headline, while others use the one from the site they are linking to from their blogs.
The primary link, which takes you to the source of the item under discussion, is what much of blogging is all about. This is most often why the blog post exists. You read something interesting, and you blog it for others to see.
The summary usually appears right after the link, but comments can be scattered throughout a longer post. These elements can be left out altogether. They should pertain to the post, but some experimentalists disregard this rule.
The image is optional. Many bloggers use few, if any, images. Others group them into albums found elsewhere on the Internet and link to those groupings. The blogger may or may not choose to caption the pictures. Most pictures are taken from the same page as the link. The image is often just a reference link to an image on the Web site that the blogger is pointing people toward. It may sometimes be a link itself. Sometimes the image needs to be fixed or shrunk, and many bloggers will capture the image and host it on their blog systems. In all these uses copyright issues exist, but the argument that "fair use" mostly applies here seems to be generally accepted.
The blockquote, which in publishing parlance would be called a pull quote or call-out, is an excerpt from the item being blogged. It might be a paragraph from a newspaper article, for example. It is usually offset in some way so it appears different from the rest of the text. This element seems to confuse newcomers who haven't seen blogs before, because it is not always obvious that the element was not written by the blogger. On my blog, I usually indent it and change the font and the background colorand people still don't perceive it as a pull quote. They sometimes seem to think it is just an emphasized point of mine.
Usually at the bottom of the page is the comments link. Some blogs will incorporate all readers' comments on the main page, creating an ongoing, never-ending discussion. Most hide the comments on the permalink page. Clicking on the comments link usually brings you to the editing box on that page. Some bloggers disable comments, since they have become a source of spam. Others use outside forums, and link their comments to other sites where these forums exist as standalone systems not controlled by the blogger.
The comments element applies to reader comments, not summary or comments done by the blogger. The comments are part of the individual posts and often require either registration or moderation. Most open-post blogs with no controls tend to be inundated with spam. The editing toll on blogging systems is typically straightforward, with a few buttons that visitors can use for linking to other sites or adding emphasis to a post. Some blogs allow the uploading of images, too.
Collateral features are the automated elements that come with the blogging software. They are fairly universal, so blog readers expect to find and use many of them. They include an archive list, a calendar, a search box, a blogroll, an "about" page, a log-on page for members or the sysop, and blog categories (if any). Most blogs also have an RSS feed listed someplace for users who like to receive information via an RSS reader (for more information about RSS, see "RSS: The Web At Your Fingertips").
You will see other elements, too, as bloggers can easily create their own. But the ones we've listed are the common ones that readers expect. To me the most important are the calendar, the archive list, and the search box. The latter is a valuable tool for tracking topics from past blog postings, but some blogging software does not make it available. The calendar is handy but something of a gimmick, since the search box works better at finding old posts. And there should be an archive list that the reader can click to see all the posts from the entire month. The blogroll lists other blogs the blogger finds interesting. Other collateral elements are often informational and tend to be self-explanatory.

ONE of the highest levels of the drug ecstasy ever recorded in the UK was found in the body of a popular Falmouth man who died after being taken ill whilst attending a rave.
Tyre fitter Samuel Thornton, 20, of Glasney Road, Falmouth, also known as Skinny, died on October 10, 2010 whilst out celebrating his birthday with friends.
An inquest in Truro last week heard he had taken MDMA and had died "because he'd taken ecstasy" and that the level was the 'highest' on record.
Mr Thornton had been out in Falmouth on Saturday, October 9, 2010 before returning home to get changed to go to a rave called Pop Clique in Penryn in the early hours of Sunday morning.
He had been drinking alcohol and was said to be in high spirits by his friends, having earlier been dressed as a banana and riding on a green space hopper through the streets.
He arrived at the rave in a warehouse on the Kernick Industrial Estate at around 2.30am on October 10 where he was seen by friend James Edwards.
"He seemed happy and drunk," he said. Although he didn't see him for much of the evening, at one point Mr Thornton asked Mr Edwards if he'd like to 'share a line'. Mr Edwards told the inquest he took this to mean drugs.
They went outside and found a VW camper van and asked the owner if they could go inside. They agreed and once inside Mr Edwards drank a bottle of beer, but when he asked Mr Thornton for his share of the drugs he told him he'd taken them all. "I said 'What all of it?'" said Mr Edwards "You're nuts."
They went back into the rave but, at around 5am, Sam became agitated and was taken outside. He collapsed on the ground and became incoherent and was flailing his arms around. He was extremely hot and friends tried to cool him down by pouring water over him. Another friend, Ben Rochester, told the inquest in a statement that Sam's heartbeat "was going crazy".
An ambulance was called but paramedics had to call the police for assistance because Mr Thornton was flailing around violently and proving impossible to treat.
Truro coroner Emma Carlyon was told that the police had to put handcuffs onto his wrists and strap him onto the stretcher before he could be taken to hospital. Burt this did not contribute to his death.
PC Paul Shimmen, of Falmouth Police Station, who accompanied Mr Thornton to the hospital, told the inquest in a statement that Mr Thornton was kicking his legs and kept sitting bolt upright involuntarily. He said did not think he was being deliberately violent but felt it was uncontrollable. He was hallucinating and seemed to think he was still on the dancefloor.
"He had wild staring eyes and I was certain he was hallucinating. He appeared to be locked into another reality," he said. Once at the hospital Mr Thornton was treated by the team at the A&E department but his condition rapidly deteriorated and at around 9.15am he suffered a cardiac arrest and, despite the best efforts of the medical team to revive him, he was declared dead at 10am.
Dr Hugh Jones, consultant pathologist, at the Royal Cornwall Hospital at Truro told the inquest that Sam had died "because he took ecstasy."
Giving evidence over the phone, toxicologist Steve Morley said that the amount of MDMA in Mr Thornton's body was the "highest on record" and was enough to induce "epileptic" type seizures.
"It was an extremely high level," he said. "He would have fits, a very high body temperature become agitated, aggressive and hyper active. The most likely cause of death was an epileptic seizure," he said.
Recording a verdict of accidental death Emma Carlyon said Mr Thornton had died as a result of taking ecstasy.

Ending? There isn't an ending. There are no resolutions, no conclusions, nothing. All just left hanging. The lack of ending ruined for me what was a good (not great) drama. Wish I could recommend but cannot.
Great drama for ADULTS. Sad that rushed the ending; think as had to wrap all up in last episode, writers did a good job. I just wish ran full 50 episodes.
Enjoyable - not the best ever but worth watching.

The New Outdoor Room
This summer, think of your backyard as the next decorating frontier. Use designer-quality furniture, rugs, lighting and charming decorative accents for stunning results. Here, we present some great new products to create your own wonderful outdoor room for summer 2013.
Tips to Make Your Backyard Look Better than Ever
It's that glorious time of year when nature bursts forth and St. Louisans head outdoors for pursuit of pleasure. After you've cleaned out the flower beds, clipped, trimmed and mulched your way to beauty, consider implementing one or more of these tips to make your backyard a standout this summer:
• Stain your fence a stylish color. How many more decaying wooden privacy fences must we endure before someone comes up with a new idea besides white vinyl? Why not stain those wood fences a fashionable color? Our current favorite: Cabot's Slate, which hovers somewhere between navy and black, and was found everywhere in the outdoor section of Maison & Objet, the biannual home furnishings show in Paris. If your unfinished wood fence has been in place for a while, clean it thoroughly with a pressure washer before applying the stain.
• Think Williamsburg. While you're fixing up the fence, why not cap the posts with a wood plinth and colonial ball finial? They're both available in the lumber section at Lowe's and Home Depot. So easy and so decorative!
• Plant an all-white garden. While a multicolored garden is a beautiful sight to behold, many backyards benefit from the focus and definition that comes from a single color theme. Those in the know swear by an all-white garden. White flowers seem to glow at night, look especially refreshing when summer is at its zenith, and are a fabulous foil for a slate-gray fence. Our favorite easy-to-grow plants with white blooms: impatiens, viburnum, Knock Out® roses, and oak leaf hydrangea.
• Show a sense of humor. We love classic Four Seasons statuary and other stately accents, but also appreciate a little humor now and then, especially where it's least expected. What about some black sheep grazing about your lawn, a crowing concrete rooster, or a big metal bug sculpture crawling up a tree? Sometimes, it's the element of surprise that creates winning backyard decor.
• Create ambience with light. In addition to electric or gas lanterns, try white incandescent Christmas lights during the summer months. String them on a small ornamental tree, wrap them around the railing of a deck, or place them inside a lantern for a warm, festive glow.
How to Make Old Flatware Meaningful
If you're a crafter, jewelry-maker and other artsy type whose mantra is "do it yourself," or if you simply like to collect vintage flatware salvaged from local thrift stores, you may be interested in the new hand-stamping trend. It's a simple and inexpensive way to turn old knives, forks and spoons into personalized gifts and place settings by adding initials or a special phrase. All you need is some plain, old silverware, a hammer, permanent marker, 000 steel wool, a bench block and steel alphabet stamps (the latter two items available at beaducation.com.) Set the bench block on sturdy surface, hold the stamp firmly, hit the end with the hammer to create an impression, and continue until you've spelled the desired word or phrase. Use the non-toxic marker to completely color over stamped words. Polish the silverware with steel wool and wash with soap and water before use. Voila! You have created your very own personalized flatware!
St. Louis Favorite Kelly Wearstler Authors New Design Book
If there's one thing we know about St. Louis designers, it's that they love Kelly Wearstler. Time and time again, when asked who their favorite interior designer is, Wearstler's name is at the top of the list. Wearstler is celebrated for her striking personal style as well as for her luxurious, risk-taking interiors that mix old Hollywood with a distinctive modern sensibility. We're happy to report that she has published a new book, Kelly Wearstler: Rhapsody. The designer's fourth design tome, Rhapsody offers a look into her glamorous world, profiling the creative process as well as her latest interior design projects. The book follows Wearstler behind the scenes, whether she's creating sculpture at her metal foundry or shopping at auction houses, to reveal the inspirations that fuel her imagination and her original design work.
Frank Lloyd Wright House Benefit
The Frank Lloyd Wright House in Ebsworth Park will celebrate what would have been the architect's 146th birthday with a benefit party on Sunday, June 2, from 2:00 - 5:00 p.m. at the future National Building Arts Center, located just five minutes from downtown St. Louis in Sauget, Ill. The theme of the party, Remarkable Reminders: Architectural Fragments, is the perfect fit for the event site, which houses the largest collection of architectural artifacts in the country.
In addition to savoring elegant party fare and enjoying spirited early jazz and swing music performed by Miss Jubilee and the Humdingers, guests will be able to view the restoration in progress of the former Sterling Steel Casting Foundry, the home of the future National Building Arts Center. The St. Louis Building Arts Foundation is restoring the 13-building facility for use as a museum and research facility. On display during the event is the vast array of architectural artifacts that Director Larry Giles has salvaged for more than 40 years. The collections include more than 300,000 beautiful building fragments – ornamental brick, terracotta, metalwork, stone, hardware and more – salvaged from St. Louis landmarks and from buildings around the country.
The Remarkable Reminders benefit will raise funds for projects and programs of The Frank Lloyd Wright House in Ebsworth Park, the nonprofit organization that maintains the house located at 120 N. Ballas Road in Kirkwood. To reserve a spot at the celebration, call 822-8359 or visit ebsworthpark.org.
Phillips Furniture Debuts Collection by Angelo Surmelis
A new furniture line by designer Angelo Surmelis (you may know him from HGTV's Rate My Space and 24 Hour Design) is now in store at Phillips Furniture in Kirkwood. Called angelo:HOME, the collection is perfect for younger buyers with transitional tastes who are shopping on a budget. Pieces in the angelo:HOME collection include upholstered chairs, ottomans, sofas, rugs, beds, bedding, mirrors and lighting and are designed to look as though they came from multiple sources, yet all work together. Among the highlights is the Beekman Fold-Away Bar. "I love to entertain," Surmelis says. "Nothing is better than hanging out with people you love, great food and drinks, and a night that has no end. My new bar was designed with that in mind. It's stylish and compact, yet practical and with enough details to make it almost as interesting as you and your guests."
Gather 'Round the New Community Wine Table at Cielo
St. Louisans in search of unique food and wine experiences will love the new alternatives at Cielo, the restaurant at the Four Seasons Hotel downtown. "In addition to the classic way of dining in the restaurant, we offer different versions of a chef's table in the back of house," says Michael Pechlof, food and beverage manager. "Guests can sit in the kitchen and experience the back of house 'live.' We also offer a fireplace dinner, which is an elegant, semi-private dining option by the fireplace with a beautiful view of the Arch. And last but not least is the Gaja Wine Room, which is used for private dinner parties, as well as for wine tastings, cocktail and cooking classes, and small receptions."
The centerpiece of the Gaja Wine Room is the bespoke Community Table, a rough-hewn work of art by St. Louis designer Kevin King. The table is made from rafters which were salvaged from the Old Missionary Baptist Church located on Vandeventer Avenue. Wine racks are crafted from the salvaged window frames of the 150-old-church, which was destroyed by a New Year's tornado on Dec. 31, 2010. "It took 12 employees to carry the 1,000-pound-table up to the restaurant," Pechlof explains. "A carpenter worked over a full week to polish and finish the table. It's a masterpiece with a unique character. We loved the combination of being an international hotel merging with the local community and a piece of St. Louis history in our contemporary facilities."
K. Hall Designs Opens Pop-Up Store in Plaza Frontenac
K. Hall Designs has opened a new pop-up shop in Plaza Frontenac, where it's selling a proprietary line of bath, body and home fragrances. The artisanal products are designed and produced in small batches at the company's facility on Manchester Road in Brentwood. Kelly Hall-Barr, who owns the business with her husband, John Barr, says the store also will carry an assortment of hard-to-find accessories, housewares and women's clothing.

Kraigg Brathwaite and Darren Bravo both smashed centuries to put West Indies in control of the second test against New Zealand in Trinidad on Tuesday.
Brathwaite scored a patient 129 to register his maiden test hundred while the more aggressive Bravo blasted a rapid 109 to give West Indies a healthy first innings lead at Queen's Park Oval.
When stumps were drawn on day two, West Indies were cruising along at 310 for five, leading by 89 runs after New Zealand were restricted to 221 on the opening day at Port of Spain.
Shivnarine Chanderpaul was unbeaten on four while Kemar Roach was yet to score after the pair came to the crease when Brathwaite and Bravo fell in the last session.
The pair had batted together throughout most of the day, sharing a partnership of 182 after New Zealand picked up two wickets before lunch.
Tim Southee cleaned up nightwatchman Sulieman Benn for four then legspinner Ish Sodhi removed the dangerous Kirk Edwards, who smashed 55 off just 64 balls.
He dominated a 93-run stand with Brathwaite, belting seven boundaries and three sixes before he edged one to wicketkeeper BJ Watling.
"I thought we bowled pretty well without a lot of reward but to be fair they batted really well with Brathwaite and Bravo both scoring hundreds," Watling said.
"We'll come back tomorrow and look to take five quick wickets and get out there and score some runs and put a target on the board."
Brathwaite, playing in his 11th test, brought up his fifth half-century just after lunch before play was delayed because of heavy rain.
The 21-year-old reached his maiden test hundred after tea off 199 balls after West Indies had taken the first innings lead.
Shortly after, Bravo chalked up his sixth test century, and his first in the Caribbean, off just 128 deliveries, before the Kiwis finally made the breakthrough in an extended final session.
Bravo, whose innings featured 11 boundaries and four sixes, fell with the total on 291, when he holed out after an trying smash a ball from spinner Kane Williamson.
Then Brathwaite went just before stumps, hitting a return catch to medium pacer Trent Boult after batting for more than six hours, facing 258 balls and striking 13 fours. – Reuters

2 Kings - Chapter 1
2 Kings Chapters
1 After Ahab's death Moab rebelled against Israel.
2 Ahaziah had fallen from the balcony of his upper room in Samaria, and was lying ill; so he sent messengers, saying to them, 'Go and consult Baal-Zebub god of Ekron and ask whether I shall recover from my illness.'
3 But the angel of Yahweh said to Elijah the Tishbite, 'Up! Go and intercept the king of Samaria's messengers. Say to them, "Is there no God in Israel, for you to go and consult Baal-Zebub god of Ekron?
4 Yahweh says this: You will never leave the bed you have got into; you are certainly going to die." ' And Elijah set out.
5 The messengers returned to the king, who said, 'Why have you come back?'
6 'A man came to meet us,' they answered. 'He said, "Go back to the king who sent you and tell him: Yahweh says this: Is there no God in Israel, for you to go and consult Baal-Zebub god of Ekron? For this, you will never leave the bed you have got into; you are certainly going to die."'
7 He said, 'This man who met you and said all this, what was he like?'
8 'A man wearing a hair cloak', they answered, 'and a leather loincloth.' 'It was Elijah the Tishbite,' he said.
9 He then sent a captain of fifty soldiers with his fifty men to Elijah, whom they found sitting on top of a hill; the captain went up to him and said, 'Man of God, the king says, "Come down." '
10 Elijah answered the captain, 'If I am a man of God, may fire fall from heaven and destroy both you and your fifty men.' And fire fell from heaven and destroyed him and his fifty men.
11 The king sent a second captain of fifty to him, again with fifty men, and he too went up and said, 'Man of God, this is the king's order, "Come down at once." '
12 Elijah answered them, 'If I am a man of God, may fire fall from heaven and destroy both you and your fifty men.' And lightning fell from heaven and destroyed him and his fifty men.
13 The king then sent a third captain of fifty to him, with another fifty men. The third captain of fifty came up to Elijah, fell on his knees before him and pleaded with him. 'Man of God,' he said, 'may my life and the lives of these fifty servants of yours count for something in your eyes.
14 Fire has fallen from heaven and destroyed two captains of fifties and their companies, but this time may my life count for something in your eyes!'
15 The angel of Yahweh said to Elijah, 'Go down with him; do not be afraid of him.' He rose and accompanied him down to the king,
16 and said to him, 'Yahweh says this, "Since you sent messengers to consult Baal-Zebub god of Ekron, you will never leave the bed you have got into; you are certainly going to die." '
17 And, in accordance with the word of Yahweh which Elijah had uttered, he died. Since he had no son, his brother Jehoram succeeded him, in the second year of Jehoram son of Jehoshaphat, king of Judah.
18 The rest of the history of Ahaziah, and his career, is this not recorded in the Book of the Annals of the Kings of Israel?

New Jerusalem Bible
Bible Resources
The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) is a Catholic translation of the Bible published in 1985. The New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) has become the most widely used Roman Catholic Bible outside of the United States. It has the imprimatur of Cardinal George Basil Hume.
Like its predecessor, the Jerusalem Bible, the New Jerusalem Bible (NJB) version is translated "directly from the Hebrew, Greek or Aramaic." The 1973 French translation, the Bible de Jerusalem, is followed only "where the text admits to more than one interpretation." Introductions and notes, with some modifications, are taken from the Bible de Jerusalem.
