An encounter between two of the most remarkable women artists of the 20th century, ONE DAY PINA ASKED... is Chantal Akerman's look at the work of choreographer Pina Bausch and her Wuppertal, Germany-based dance company. "This film is more than a documentary on Pina Bausch," a narrator announces at the outset, "it is a journey through her world, through her unwavering quest for love."
Bausch, who died in 2009, was one of the most significant figures of modern dance, and the pioneer of a unique style drawn from the German theatrical dance tradition known as tanztheater. Her striking dances and elaborate stagings explored personal memory and the relationships between men and women, among other things, through a mixture of movement, monologue and narrative elements that drew upon explosive, often painful emotions.
Capturing the company's rehearsals and performances over a five-week European tour, Akerman takes us inside their process. She interviews members of the company, who Bausch chose not only for their talents, but for certain intangible personal qualities as well. The dancers describe the development of various dances, and the way that Bausch calls upon them to supply autobiographical details around which the performances were frequently built.
Akerman also shows us excerpts from performances of Bausch dances, including Komm Tanz Mit Mir (Come Dance with Me) (1977), Nelken (Carnations) (1982), Walzer (1982), and 1980 (1980), all recorded with Akerman's singular visual touch.
"When I watched one of Pina's performances for the first time a couple of years ago, I was overcome by an emotion I can't quite define," Akerman says. ONE DAY PINA ASKED... is an attempt to define that emotion by traveling deep into Bausch's world.
"Akerman's film is a work of modestly daring wonder, of exploration and inspiration. With her audacious compositions, decisive cuts, and tightrope-tremulous sense of time-and her stark simplicity-it shares, in a way that Wenders's film doesn't, the immediate exhilaration of the moment of creation. Akerman's film is of a piece with Bausch's dances. —Richard Brody, The New Yorker
"Astonishing! ['With One Day Pina Asked...,' Akerman] achieved new levels of sensuality and emotional directness. Using lengthy takes and exacting compositions (two of her stylistic signatures), she encourages us to reflect on how the dancers' bodies give form to Bausch's ideas. —Ben Sachs, Chicago Reader
"Wim Wenders's 3-D Pina may be the crowd-pleasing, pumped-up version of Bausch's dances, Akerman's vision is far more intimate and emotive." — Film Comment
"Both [Bausch and Akerman] create reflective, large-scale visual compositions that convey a powerful but ambiguous emotional intensity." —Stephen Holden, The New York Times

Indeed, this tiny seed has endured
the ages,
as an important food source for ancient civilizations
in South America and
to its current resurgence as a highly nutritious gluten-free grain.
Amaranth is the common name for more
than 60 different species of amaranthus,
which are usually very tall plants
with broad green leaves and
impressively bright
purple, red, or gold flowers.
It is a valuable crop in several ways:
the young tender plants make incredible purple
salad greens, the edible black seeds can
be ground to make a protein rich flour, and
the dramatic deep reddish-purple clustered blooms
make a great ornamental or cut
Amaranth contains more protein than any other
gluten-free grain- and more protein than wheat.
Heirloom amaranth is an excellent source of lysine,
an important amino
acid (protein).

Let's see who has the best, the fastest, the grooviest BLAST BEATS.
I will admit. I know NOTHING about blast beats, but I think they are freaking cool and when done well (and within context). Pretty darn badass.
For those of you looking to better understand blast beats, I found this groovy video on YouTube that runs through a number of different variations.
Now, we want to see your best blast beats. Share them with @spiritandgroove on Instagram by tagging #spiritandgroove in your drumming videos. If yours is groovy enough, we may repost and if it gets the most likes for the month. You can win any drummer t-shirt from our store, just like our Camo-Drum Horns Drummer's Tee.

I have someone who has an Access database for his clients and a Word document to do the mail merge with the database. After every MS Patch cycle he complains that the "Edit Recipient List" link is greyed out and he has to hit the "Browse" link and re-establish the links to his databases (lists). The lists (databases) he is trying to link to are on shared network file server (Win2003 I am pretty sure). He is trying to avoid having to do this after every patch cycle. I have not found anything yet. Thanks in advance for any assistance you can provide.

Pics and Vids Starring Veronica Jane
Something I've got to change before it gets to be a problem:
Finding it easier to get Veronica dressed for school while she plays video games in the morning than fighting her each step of the way.
Veronica wanted me to show this to people. It's called "The Cat Loves Mice and The Mice Are Eating Cheese."
It's Veronica's first day of real kindergarten!
She was totally not scared at all, not even a little bit. Neither was I, until I turned around and saw my all-day, every-day companion for the next 9 months: BUBBA.

I saw this and couldn't resist answering. My favorite, of course, is the opening line of Pride and Prejudice.
"It is a truth universally acknowledged that a single man in possession of a good fortune must be in want of a wife."
It makes Austen's satirical overtones clear from the beginning, particularly when compared to the follow-up, where Austen makes clear that it is not the single man thinking this, but a matchmaking mama who wants her daughter to marry said man.
Another favorite is the opening of A Tale of Two Cities. I can't fully transcribe it from memory (too many comparisons and semicolons, not enough periods), but I'm sure everyone knows it anyway. Dickens uses it to set the tone of parallels and disparities for the whole novel on that first page. And even when someone doesn't remember what happens with the rest of the story, the opening still rings in memory.
An opening for a more recent read that intrigued me was the opening sentence of On Chesil Beach by Ian McEwan, which reads: "They were young, educated, and both virgins on this, their wedding night, and they lived in a time when a conversation about sexual difficulties was plainly impossible." Again, with that one sentence, the tone of the rest of the novel is set.
I'll update in a little bit with my mid-year reading assessment.

Tourism in Punjab
The state of Punjab is renowned for its cuisine, culture and history. Punjab has a vast public transportation and communication network. Some of the main cities in Punjab are Amritsar, Chandigarh, Patiala and Ludhiana. Punjab also has a rich Sikhreligious history.
The first impression of Punjab one gets is that of a land pulsating with prosperity. The plains of Punjab, with their fertile soil and abundant water supply, are naturally suited to be the breadbasket for India. The land of Punjab is a land of exciting culture, myriad images of swaying emerald green fields and hearty people whose robust rustic ways of camaraderie and bonhomie are very much a part of their heritage.
Tourism in Punjab is principally suited for the tourists interested in culture, ancient civilization, spirituality and epic history. Some of the villages in Punjab are also a must see for the person who wants to see the true Punjab, with their beautiful traditional Indian homes, farms and temples, this is a must see for any visitor that goes to India.

Before ordination I taught in the English department at The Ferrers School, Northants, having studied English to Masters level at Leicester and Warwick Universities. I trained for ordination at St John's College, Nottingham, and served my curacy in Peterborough before moving to Cumbria in 2002 as Team Vicar in the Cartmel Peninsula. Whilst in Peterborough I tutored for the diocesan Reader training scheme and have been an honorary tutor for LCTP from 2002 to 2009. I took up the Vice-Principal role in September 2009 and became Acting Principle in September 2014. I divide my time between that and being Officer for IME 4-7 (curate training) for Carlisle Diocese.
My academic interests include literary approaches to the Bible, postmodern hermeneutics and the ethics of interpretation, and I am also pursuing an interest in Anglo-Saxon spirituality.
In my spare time I enjoy wargaming and military history, watching and reading science fiction and fantasy, and listening to an eclectic mix of music, which ranges from medieval polyphony to Goth metal.

MultiBinding.UpdateSourceTrigger Property
Gets or sets a value that determines the timing of binding source updates.
Assembly: PresentationFramework (in PresentationFramework.dll)
Property ValueType: System.Windows.Data.UpdateSourceTrigger
One of the UpdateSourceTrigger values. The default value is Default, which returns the default UpdateSourceTrigger value of the target dependency property. However, the default value for most dependency properties is PropertyChanged, while the Text property has a default value of LostFocus.
A programmatic way to determine the default UpdateSourceTrigger value of a dependency property is to get the property metadata of the property using GetMetadata and then check the value of the DefaultUpdateSourceTrigger property.
The values of the Mode and UpdateSourceTrigger properties determine the functionality of the MultiBinding and are used as the default values for all the bindings in the collection unless an individual binding overrides these properties. For example, if the Mode property on the MultiBinding object is set to TwoWay, then all the bindings in the collection are considered TwoWay unless you set a different Mode value on one of the bindings explicitly. For more information, see the Binding.Mode and Binding.UpdateSourceTrigger properties.
Available since 3.0

Production began last week on the film, which stars David Tennant as Liang, alongside Elisabeth Moss, Michael Gambon and Gabriel Byrne.
GSP Studios is also acting as a co-producer on the project, which is being produced by London-based Gizmo Films in collaboration with Bad Penny Productions.
A four-week shoot is currently underway in the UK, much of which will be housed at GSP's production facilities in York, as well as on location in London.
International rights were previously being handled by sales outfit Double Dutch.
The film charts the story of world-renowned Scottish psychiatrist Laing and his acolytes at Kingsley Hall, East London, during the 1960s.
Writer and director Robert Mullan is a veteran documentarian and has also penned three books about Liang.
Screen first announced the project last Cannes.

In the late 1990s as web publishing tools open the door for non-technical users to post content, information, and participate in discussion threads, the interactive world of blogging was born. Prior to this period digital communities took multi-faceted forms including chat-rooms and electronic bulletin boards. As electronic tools have improved, it has allowed for the production of web articles, images, audio and video files to be systematically organized and posted in a webpage format that can be used by a much larger non-technical populace that are not trained in programming source code and algorithms.
Blogs typically become popular by citation or affiliation. Citations are when other websites or an organization, cite or refer to an existing blog to point out a particular discussion or point of view. Affiliation is when an organization uses or groups a number of blogs for their desired purposes to help assist in promoting messages or ideas. Such grouping of blogs are known as blogrolls.
With the popularity of blogging, many individuals and groups have taken the opportunity to create their own blog. In some cases there are blogs that are multi-authored, which can include media outlets, university think tanks and advocacy groups. In most cases blogging is inconsequential and exiguous – just the musings of a person that needs a literary outlet to their everyday happenings. In other cases, blogging is intently used to advance ideas, shape thoughts and advocate causes. It is within this interstice, the shaping of thoughts and advocating causes, that The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints now finds itself and should be concerned.
We all like blogs. We like the new found freedom in expressing ourselves and viewpoints to a mass audience either real or perceived. We like the idea that we have something important to say and that perhaps our position, our understanding, our worldview, our viewpoint matters. Perhaps our blogs will serve to help others to see a little clearly, improve upon their understanding, create a sense of community among like thinkers or just allow our intellect to shine a little brighter before our peers. No one would argue against the human need to be able to freely express oneself whether in art, sport or words.
The publishing arm of the Church, Deseret Book, has seen a tremendous outgrowth of electronic media expression. One of the most prevalent manifestation of this electronic mass communication is the online magazine LDS Living. Within this realm of mass communication and within a narrow aperture, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, have attracted through the accumulation of blogrolls, a number of bloggers – along with their affiliated websites. These bloggers have attached themselves to and dress themselves up as enlightened contributing authors to the advancement and cause of the threefold mission of the Church, but who in all actuality are authored by advocacy groups whose only intent is to shape the mass mind, to shape the thoughts of Latter-day Saints to their worldview and not for the cause of Christ or the Celestial law that He advocates.
A small sampling of this can be shown from a plethora of examples. LDS Living has given voice to blogs that contain the writings of individuals and multi-author contributors that use alchemical symbols within their messages. [1] One such blogger also chose to use a distasteful pun to name her blog. [2]
Some bloggers are even so bold as to name their blogs after sigils that are affiliated with talismans that are used for success and protection. Along with paying for prayers that are typically done at a well known and respected religious site that the payee can't personally visit. The greater the amount of the payment, the more prayers will be performed in their behalf. This modern form of indulgences [3] is what historically influenced Catholicism during the Renaissance to do the same. These sigils are also linked to magic amulets, other types of ritual magic and casting of the evil eye.
This is just a small sampling of what type of bloggers exist that LDS Living is using, who refer to themselves as members of the Church and contribute their time and thought into promoting their extra-biblical worldview in a way that seems Mormon friendly.
The reality is that these blogrolls that are being used by the publishing arm of the Church, are the beginning stages of a spiritual type of black plague, wherein the mass distribution of these twilight words, phrases, topics and alchemical symbols, inject a mental virus that is implanted into the mind and psyche of member's of the Church. It's the age old alchemical concept of solve et coagula. The break-down of society and it's institutions and then rebuild them based on the alchemists objective and world view. A world view that believes that sodomite behavior is just part of the moral entropy of our advance age and should be Christianized. The moral equivalent of the scientific concept that all things run down and collapse into its natural or original state.
The sprinkling of such ideas in the mass mind of the general membership of the Church through what in the technical world is deemed psycho-linguistics or what is probably more appropriately called in the Hermetic tradition as twilight language, sows seeds in the mass mind that remove the believer away from possessing an "eye single to the glory of God" [4] to a new realm of relativism, wherein the believer holds the mind and will of their Creator on one hand and equally holds in due regard in their other hand, concepts that from their inception have been against God and organized religion. The very essence of the double-mind of which the apostle James warns against. [5] A true Mormon, is a disciple of Christ, a disciple of Christ would never use a blog in the name of the Church for purposes outside the scope of the declaration Domine, sed nomini tuo da gloriam.
In April 2000, Thomas S. Monson, who was then the 1st counselor in the First Presidency of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, gave a talk entitled, Your Eternal Voyage. [6] Wherein, Pres. Monson likens mortality to a sea, that must be "safely " sailed, guided by "that eternal mariner – even the great Jehovah." Pres. Monson then went on to describe a lesson from the biological world and the shipping industry to give emphasis to this concept.
Pres. Monson taught the following: "To some it may seem strange to see ships of many nations loading and unloading cargo along the docks at Portland, Ore. That city is 100 miles from the ocean. Getting there involves a difficult, often turbulent passage over the bar guarding the Columbia River and a long trip up the Columbia and Willamette Rivers.
"But ship captains like to tie up at Portland. They know that as their ships travel the seas, a curious saltwater shellfish called a barnacle fastens itself to the hull and stays there for the rest of its life, surrounding itself with a rocklike shell. As more and more [of these] barnacles attach themselves, they increase the ship's drag, slow its progress, decrease its efficiency.
"Periodically, the ship must go into dry dock, where with great effort the barnacles are chiseled or scraped off. It's a difficult, expensive process that ties up the ship for days.
"But not if the captain can get his ship to Portland. Barnacles can't live in fresh water. There, in the sweet, fresh waters of the Willamette or Columbia, the barnacles die and some fall away, while those that remain are easily removed. Thus, the ship returns to its task lightened and renewed.
"Sins are like those barnacles. Hardly anyone goes through life without picking up some. They increase the drag, slow our progress, decrease our efficiency. Unrepented, building up one on another, they can eventually sink us.
"In His infinite love and mercy, our Lord has provided a harbor where, through repentance, our barnacles fall away and are forgotten. With our souls lightened and renewed, we can go efficiently about our work and His."
Prophetically, this real life story based upon maritime and biological realities, can not only be likened unto personal sins, but also for the church as a whole. The teachings of prophets have always been known to contain multiple meanings that need to be applied at all levels for the good of Israel. The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is like a great seafaring vessel. As it goes forth in its everyday duties in administering and advancing the cause of Christ, it picks up a saltwater shellfish known as a barnacle from time to time. These barnacles or blogs, attach themselves to the hull of the ship, the Church. As time goes by, more and more bloggers form, joining, and increasing their numbers. Their opinions that stem from outside the canon of Church doctrine, which are the philosophies of the world, are then dressed up with scriptural terms and ideas, which then only serve to weigh the Church down, increasing its drag.
What remains to be seen is how the Lord will cleanse the hull of His ship, from these bloggers, that like the barnacles that attached to the hull of seafaring vessels are now attached to the hull of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. The viewpoints, opinions, teachings and downright instruction, given by these ersatz teachers that call themselves bloggers, water down Church doctrine, nullifying the word of God and attaching ideas that were once considered the clarion call of the 1960s counter-culture revolution to the hull of Christ's ship, presenting those ideas as Mormonism.
Continuing with Pres. Monson: "Remember how the captains of oceangoing vessels burdened by the weight of barnacles set a course to the fresh waters of the Columbia and Willamette Rivers to rid themselves of these impediments of progress? Let us, in our own lives and in our service in the Lord's work, shed the barnacles of doubt, laziness, fear, and sin by plying the living waters of the gospel of Jesus Christ. We know their names: faith, prayer, charity, obedience, and love-to identify but a few. The lighthouse of the Lord Jesus Christ marks the way. His beacon light will guide our course to celestial glory.
True students of holy writ, that understand the dual nature of prophetic warnings, must agree that Pres. Monson's address concerning barnacles and their ill effect or impediment upon the course of the human soul, can and ought to be applied in a much grander scale concerning the church and those voices that have attached itself to it in the form of bloggers. These voices use their literary wits to sow seeds that they hope will sprout within a new generation of saints. Seeds that will turn the future Latter-day Saint into a centrist saint. A saint holding two opposing viewpoints simultaneously and championing them both. Viewing themselves as the most enlightened generation of Christians the world has known. Instilling within their discipleship the double-mind. A psychological paralysis of moral abulia.

In outlining a generally sensible policy of waiting to see whether the putative government in Afghanistan is a viable one, White House chief of staff Rahm Emanuel may have let slip the essentially colonial/imperialistic attitude that still animates most high-level political operatives in both parties.
Speaking on CNN Sunday, Emanuel said, "It would be reckless to make a decision on U.S. troop level if, in fact, you haven't done a thorough analysis of whether, in fact, there's an Afghan partner ready to fill that space that the U.S. troops would create and become a true partner in governing the Afghan country."
"Become a true partner in governing"? The clear implication is that it's the United States' job to govern Afghanistan and it wants the Afghan government, theoretically a sovereign nation, only to be a partner in that imperalistic enterprise. That might not be what Rahm Emanuel meant to say, but it is what he did say, and it's not outrageous to suggest that it is the real mindset of all too many U.S. officials.
There's little question the Karzai government is more than a bit of a wreck. You would think that that would be the Afghans' problem (insofar as they consider it a problem; many have no desire for a strong, effective central government) not ours.

Through Navistar International's year of turmoil — struggles with federal engine mandates, feisty investors and floundering cash flow — the Springfield plant has shined.
But now Springfield has to combat Navistar's other North American plants for what remains of the company's product work and investments to survive.
This month, Navistar announced a loss of more than $2.9 billion for the year ending Oct. 31. In the year, Navistar's only profit was in the third quarter — a net income gain of $83 million.
The company reported losses of $153 million and $172 million in the first and second quarters of the year, respectively.
"They've fallen on hard times financially," said Jason Barlow, president of United Auto Workers Local 402, which represents many of Springfield's Navistar workers. He said some of it stems from major investments on a new world headquarters and expansion into other markets in India and China.
"And they didn't concentrate on building their bases in the North American truck market, and as far as engines go they lost over $700 million" in developing its own engine, Barlow said.
Navistar has cut its operations in India and will cut its plant in Garland, Texas, by summer 2013. That work will be dispersed between Springfield and Escobedo, Mexico.
But while Barlow is optimistic about the increase in production locally, he said the key to knowing if the progress will continue is to see if Navistar invests in the Springfield plant.
"We're optimistic for the future in Springfield but also cautious," Barlow said. "We know the Alabama plant is still there, and if we see no sign investment here in Springfield, there's a possibility they may go to Alabama."
Barlow said Navistar and the state are working together to discuss future investment, but that it's in limbo because other states have also made offers to Navistar — in Oklahoma where Navistar builds buses and Alabama where Navistar builds engines.
Springfield needs the investment to help maintain the facility.
"The Springfield plant for years has not been maintained," Barlow said. "Corporately and locally, they decided to cut costs and didn't put investment into it. The facility needs a significant amount of money to upgrade the line support they have right now."
Barlow said he did not have specific dollar estimate.
The Springfield plant has grown from an all-time low of fewer than 300 workers in late 2010, to nearly 900 employees now. In December, the company hired nearly 30 full-time workers and may hire more as production increases in 2013.
Navistar must juggle any potential investments with cuts made elsewhere in the business to save money as investors and analysts speculate whether it can survive.
Senior high yield analyst Vicki Bryan, who has covered Navistar extensively for research firm Gimme Credit, has remained consistently doubtful of the company's ability to turn around.
The fourth quarter "outlook keeps Navistar perilously close to bankruptcy unless it can free up more lending capacity — which skittish bankers may not approve," said Bryan in a report last week following Navistar's quarterly report. "Failing that, the success of further stock and assets sales is less certain and may not generate enough cash to sustain operations over the next year."
To help staunch some of the cash loss and save money, Navistar has made an effort to cut spending, minimize contractors and reduce the workforce.
Already, Navistar cut more than 700 corporate level jobs through buyouts and layoffs. The company has also begun shutting down plants.
"We are getting out of our truck and engine sector with Mahindra (Commercial Utility Vehicles) of India," said Steve Schrier, Navistar spokesman. "We anticipate $33 million savings. That's another one of those things we were looking at, are we getting proper return on investment?"
Navistar will also save money by having Springfield take on the production from the Garland, Texas, plant.
"That's the model for both Springfield and Escobedo," Schrier said. "They both currently build every truck we have … we believe in flexible manufacturing and we continue to approach it that way."
Schrier said he could not disclose how much of that work is going to Springfield.
But some of the work has already trickled in to the local plant, with a major increase in production expected in January and February.
"Each month they're transitioning different lines and models in, but the official larger increases won't be until January or February time frame," Barlow said.
The company remains confident it will be able to return to profitability in 2013.
New CEO Lewis Campbell has repeatedly stated the intention to become profitable again, roll out new, EPA compliant engines and return to core business sectors in 2013.
Schrier said reported losses reflect the difference between historical data and what was projected, and it does not reflect the true cash value of a company.
The future "is still bright and we're making the right transition," Schrier said. "We did end the quarter with $1.5 billion in cash, in manufacturing cash. We have the cash to weather our transition and continue on the progress we're making."

- Ginger (Fresh) Essential Oil
Product Description
This ginger is steam distilled from pressings provided by a kombucha crafter. The organic ginger is distilled fresh rather than from dried rhizomes. The aroma of this oil is authentic and smells just like a freshly minced ginger root.
Ginger is WARMING, stimulates CIRCULATION, and helps reduce NAUSEA during pregnancy and travel. It's also a helpful anti-inflammatory for arthritis.
Latin Name: Zingiber officinale
Plant Origin: Peru
Botanical family: Zingerberaceae

It's not an easy task, and as a mother of three, Michelle Zaldin knows it.
The task? Get three kids and her husband out of the house for an afternoon, do it for a reasonable cost, and interact with professional hockey players, all at the same time.
When Zaldin tried the Toronto Marlies five years ago, she knew she not only had an instant solution, but a real family pleaser as well.
"My boys had a sixth birthday party a couple of years ago, and I started looking around for tickets to something, and I found that (Marlie) tickets were really reasonable," Zaldin, 44, said at the Ricoh Coliseum Thursday as the Marlies, the American Hockey League farm team for the Maple Leafs, prepared for their home opener Saturday against Rochester.
"When the kids get to high five the players and talk to them, they feel great, they feel special. They look up to these guys, and my kids feel like they're something of a good-luck charm too, because when they talk to a player, that player seems to get called up to the Leafs. It happened with (James Reimer and Darryl Boyce), and the kids get to say, oh my god, I knew him when he was with the Marlies."
Zaldin, along with twin 9-year-old sons Jacob and Kyle, eight year old daughter Paige, and husband Geoffrey, are fixtures at Marlie games now. Having become season ticket holders three years ago, Zaldin proudly wears her Darryl Boyce jersey, even though the popular player was traded to Columbus last February.
Her sons and daughter high five players between periods, and Paige, while not as big a hockey fan as her brothers, still "has a blast" at the games because of the "popcorn and Duke the Dog," the Marlies mascot.
There are super fans at Marlie games — fans who wear the tinsel hair and paint their faces blue and white — but Zaldin doesn't count herself among them.
"I'm just a mom, my kids are the fans," she said.
For this Thornhill mom, though, the Marlies have been something of a helping hand.
When daughter Paige was fixed with a leg cast, the first thing the family did was paint the plaster Marlie blue and head to a game.
"My daughter has mild (cerebral palsy) and sometimes she has a cast on her knee," Zaldin said.
"We went to a Marlies game and the first thing I did was bring a silver marker pen. As the players went by to the dressing room, every one of them leaned over and signed the cast. Brian Burke signed it too, he got down on his knees on the floor, and he signed it … I tell you, it was just wonderful."
Last season, son Kyle painted an image of Boyce, who became somewhat of a family favourite player. The picture was passed through to Marlie staff and was taken into the dressing room.
Boyce, impressed with the painting, came out of the dressing room, still partly dressed in his uniform, flagged down Kyle and asked, "Is this painting of me?"
"He said he'd take it into his locker and pin it up, that was such a thrill for my son," Zaldin said. "Then he got called up to the NHL and my kids couldn't stop talking about it, they still talk about it today."
While Zaldin is amazed at the interaction with the players and staff, she "can't believe" the co-operation she received from the Marlies with her fund raising efforts.
"I don't play hockey, my kids play road hockey and ball hockey, but I started this road hockey charity game called Game On, and the Marlies were like, whatever we can do to help," Zaldin said.
"We had kids down to the game and they got a tour of the dressing room and some got to ride the Zamboni. We raised $50,000 for children's charities where we live, and I just thought it was wonderful what the Marlies did, they didn't hesitate."
The Zaldin family also helped organize a fund raiser with the Associated Hebrew Schools, and sold 500 tickets to a Marlies game, which the Marlies recognized by having the school's choir sing the national anthems.
The family is now looking forward to the opening of the Marlies season this weekend, and don't feel any sense of panic or loss with the NHL in lockout mode.
"We'll always have the Marlies," Zaldin said.

Ignatius came to a profound realization that God was present and active in all of creation, including within his own soul.
What is Ignatian Spirituality?
By Fr. Brian Lehane, SJ
When people in the United States think about Jesuits — if they know us at all — they tend to associate us primarily with education. As soon as I mention to people that I am a Jesuit, inevitably I hear something like, "My father went to a Jesuit high school," or "My sister is at a Jesuit university." Before I entered the Order, I thought of the Jesuits in this way, having first encountered the Jesuits at Saint Ignatius High School in Cleveland. After entering, I discovered that the Jesuits and their lay colleagues are involved in an astonishing variety of ministries here in our country and throughout the world.
What holds all these ministries together is a spirituality that inspires and undergirds all that they set out to accomplish. That spirituality is first and foremost Christian, in that it originates from the Lord Jesus Christ, who summons disciples to share in his announcement and enactment of the reign of God. But it took particular form in the lived experience of one particular disciple, Ignatius of Loyola, who gives his name to this particular form of spirituality, Ignatian.
The Christian Church enjoys a variety of beautiful and effective spiritualities, or "pathways to God." Each is usually tied to the extraordinary effect of God's grace in the life of a charismatic founder or "originator," somebody like St. Francis of Assisi or Dorothy Day. Many of these founders left writings that capture their experience for the benefit of others who want to follow in their footsteps.
Ignatius Loyola's writings include thousands of letters, an autobiographical account, and especially his seminal Spiritual Exercises, a work geared to help others discover the God Ignatius came to know through the ups and downs of his own spiritual journey. What he learned on his spiritual journey opened his eyes, "slowly" he says, to a profound understanding of God's utter graciousness and the Risen Lord's invitation to become a companion in His mission.
Ignatius Loyola's journey began during his recovery from a battle injury that slowed him down for almost a year. His usual pleasures and distractions were unavailable, so he turned to some religious books, which surprisingly ignited his spiritual life and left him with a desire to live as a humble pilgrim in imitation of the saints. Ignatius was still imitating at this stage of his life the life of others — the saints — good in itself, but he was not yet in touch with his personal call. Eventually, at a small town named Manresa, he had a profoundly clarifying spiritual experience that he would later call the greatest grace of his life.
What this experience was exactly, he does not say. But its effects were momentous. Ignatius came to a profound realization that God was present and active in all of creation, including within his own soul. The holy desires he had experienced in recovery were God's nudges, leading him to a more meaningful and holy life. God was not a judging God so much as a helping God. Ignatius would leave Manresa with a profound peace and sense of purpose. For the rest of his life, he would help others discover what he had learned.
Ignatius went through his conversion as a layman, and he used the ups and downs of his own life as the subject of his prayer. Years later he and some companions would found the Society of Jesus to be of help to people, but his original conversion and its deepening at Manresa happened long before the Jesuits.
Jesuit institutions try to keep alive the graced experience of Ignatius by offering our colleagues the chance to deepen their own spiritual lives. Here are some principles highlighted in Ignatian spirituality:
1. All that is, all of created reality, is a gift of a gracious Creator. Our response is one of gratitude.
2. God is not distant but present and active, nudging us toward the good.
3. God deals directly with people by means of spiritual movements that can be discerned as ones authentically from God.
4. We also learn to recognize unhelpful or even destructive movements within us that must be recognized if we are to grow spiritually.
5. Prayer, especially praying over the life of Jesus imaginatively, can help us develop a "felt-knowledge" of the Lord, by which we know Him intimately.
6. Our knowing the Lord leads us to desire profoundly to be with Him and share in His mission to help the world in an active way that fits our call.
7. By practicing various spiritual exercises, we become adept at recognizing what God desires for us to do in any given situation and at responding as best we can with generosity.
8. Our gratitude and love for God shows itself in action for the betterment of the world.

The minimum wage hike is facing some difficult terrain in the Senate. Democrats unsuccessfully tried to pass the bill without tax breaks for small businesses, which Republicans sought to offset the impact of paying higher wages.
But even if Senate Democrats compromise and include the tax cuts, the measure would still have to pass the House, where a measure to raise the minimum wage was approved — but without any tax cuts — as part of Speaker Nancy Pelosi's "first 100 hours" agenda.
In what could possibly be only the first move in a process to give Washington, D.C., a vote in Congress, the House voted along party lines to allow delegates from the District and United States territories to vote — but only on floor amendmends, an action viewed as largely symbolic.
Representative John D. Dingell of Michigan and Mrs. Pelosi kissed and made up at an auto show in Washington on Wednesday, signaling a truce. The two had a spat after Mrs. Pelosi proposed a legislative task force to combat global warming, a move that Mr. Dingell, as chairman of the House Energy and Commerce Committee, saw as usurping his authority.
She also seems to be getting along better with Representative Steny Hoyer, the House Democrats' No. 2, after she supported someone else for majority leader. Democrats and Republicans, of course, are still feuding, with minor slights causing major outbursts.

Republican candidates for Lake County deservedly received three out of four endorsements today. All three were strong endorsements.
Keith Brin was endorsed for Lake County Clerk of Circuit Court as "having the knowledge, qualifications and enthusiasm to take on the challenges of the job and to do so from day one." His endorsement can be read here.
Steve Newton was endorsed for Lake County Coroner as having "the experience to hit the ground running and the temperament to be a reassuring presence at the helm of a very difficult post. He aims to repair frayed relationships between the coroner's office and others in the county, and we believe him to be the best man for the job." His opponent's "disdain for law enforcement" was also raised. His endorsement can be read over here.
Mike Nerheim was strongly endorsed for Lake County State's Attorney, who felt his "private practice experience as a criminal defense attorney gives him an edge in the turnaround" (of the office), noting that his opponent's work in private practice was "mostly civil" and not criminal. This endorsement can be read right here.
Of the four candidates running for county wide offices, only Bob Bednar, candidate for Recorder of Deeds was not endorsed. Bendar has been pushing for the functions of this office to be consolidated with other offices, as is the case with most other counties in the State. The Daily Herald felt that this "is an issue that should be addressed in its own context." That endorsement can be read here.

Great blog, Lou! Isn't it interesting that Bednar was the only countywide Republican who didn't get endorsed by the Daily Herald? He isn't running on any issues. Vanderventer is not corrupt, has done a decent job and seems to be well liked by people. I am not sure he has much of a chance of winning at all. He isn't that well liked by people, tends to shoot off his mouth wherever he goes and has no plans for the office except to get rid of it.ReplyDelete

It might not have been the way that Ohio State football fans wanted it, but the Buckeyes walked away with the 24-20 victory over the Northwestern Wildcats Saturday night in the 'Shoe. In a hard-fought game that OSU coach Urban Meyer called a "dogfight," OSU regained a little of the swagger lost after falling to Penn State.
In the press conference following the game, Meyer and players were berated with questions once again about all the things the team is doing wrong. It was an interesting take, considering the team had just beat a solid Northwestern squad.
"You had a very balanced, ran for 200 and threw for 230. Most places that's a pretty good day," Meyer said. "I understand here it's a little off a little bit. We've got to get that 500 number, I guess. But I'm very happy with it. I'll enjoy myself tonight."
Sure, OSU didn't exactly set the world on fire with an outstanding offense or make big, flashy plays on defense. But the effort was there from the No. 6 ranked team, and so were the plays when they were needed.
Here are five takeaways from the Buckeyes' bounce-back win against Northwestern.
Curtis Samuel is important, but so is Mike Weber
Meyer had some serious flak thrown his way after junior H-back Curtis Samuel touched the ball 10 times last week. After naming him the No. 1 playmaker for the Buckeyes in the offseason, most fans thought Meyer kept the ball out of his hands against Penn State.
On Saturday, Samuel saw an increase in his touches by four. He ran the ball seven times as well as carried the ball seven times, but gained a full 40 yards less than he did last game.
So what does that mean for the OSU offense when Samuel isn't the leading rusher, but the team still finds a way to win?
It means redshirt freshman running back Mike Weber had a pretty good day. As in 87 yards rushing, an average of 6.2 yards per carry and two scores.
He also had three catches for 20 yards, and helped provide a mostly sound pocket for redshirt junior quarterback J.T. Barrett when he was asked to block. Overall, Weber provided the difference in terms of scoring, although Samuel scored the winning touchdown.
Weber is the lead back in the OSU backfield, while Samuel continues to impress in his receiving ability. Meyer said he is a true hybrid back, the exact reason why his touches were split down the middle on Saturday.
While the junior H-back is vital to the Buckeyes success, Weber has to be an integral part as well.
The Silver Bullets are mastering the phrase "bend but don't break"
In back-to-back weeks, the OSU defense gave up some big plays that burnt the team. Be that as it may, there was a huge difference between the plays given up last week as opposed to this week: The defense eventually buckled down.
Right before halftime in Happy Valley, the Buckeyes surrendered arguably the biggest play of the evening. Redshirt junior Gareon Conley smothered Penn State junior wideout Chris Godwin, but the ball found its way into the receiver's hands, and the Nittany Lions brought the game to a 12-7 mark, with all the momentum gone for OSU right before the midway point.
This week, OSU was presented with a similar scenario, as Northwestern received a punt on its own 40-yard line. With good field position and an offense that had 157 yards in the second quarter alone to that point, the Buckeyes appeared to be in trouble.
Instead of trouble, OSU pushed the Wildcats back a yard and prevented a score.
"At that point in the game, that's more just the bond we have for each other," redshirt sophomore safety Malik Hooker said. "We're so strong and so close together on the defense overall that stuff like we know we're competing (for) who's going to make the play. We know that anybody's liable to step up and make the play on the defensive side of the ball."
It hasn't been the stifling defense the team enjoyed in the first few weeks, but it's a defense that dominated against Oklahoma and helped bring home a win on Saturday. Bend but don't break is not going to win a national championship, but it gives them a chance to keep the dream alive.
Austin Carr from Northwestern is as real of a receiver as there is in the Big Ten
It's rare that a former walk-on player torches the OSU secondary. Unfortunately for the Buckeyes, senior wide receiver Austin Carr did just that on Saturday, hauling in eight passes for 158 yards.
Although Carr failed to score, he did show off an impressive skill set, lining up in both the slot and on the outside. Running crossing post routes, he was able to find space in the middle of the field with linebackers picking up coverage along the way.
This year, Carr has hauled in nine touchdowns and is well on track to rack up 1,000 yards. While the Buckeyes are hunting for a wide receiver to pick up big chunks of yardage at a time, Northwestern has Carr running rampant over Big Ten defenses.
The offensive line has recovered some ground
Last week was about as ugly as it gets for an any offensive line. OSU allowed 11 tackles for loss, while Barrett was sacked six times. Sophomore tackle Isaiah Prince gave up 14 hurries by himself last week, but fellow offensive linemen like redshirt junior guard Billy Price stood by his side.
Northwestern had a much harder time getting in the backfield and penetrating the pocket, as the Buckeyes allowed four tackles for loss with just one sack. It was a game that was far from perfect, but had obvious improvements throughout.
"There was a couple good points from last week. We struggled in a few aspects," Price said. "And to have that confidence to go back out and to perform and to put the game as we offensive lineman call it on us, let's go out and win on us. Don't depend on a receiver out in the corner. Put the ball on us, put who our program is driven on — the offensive line. Isaiah did a lot better."
In all, the Buckeyes put up 431 yards of total offense. The success of an offensive unit is usually measured by the play of its blockers up front. It wasn't a perfect day, but anything is an improvement from last week.
Close game or not, the team can still win
Northwestern might not have been the game that could put OSU in a playoff position, but a strong showing and a blowout could have helped mightily down the road. Although the team had a relatively strong performance, the way the Buckeyes played is nowhere near good enough to be within the upper echelon of the NCAA at the end of the year.
Sure, it wasn't a 50-point drubbing, or a thrilling finish against a ranked opponent. But it was a win, which is the most important thing, right?
OSU continues to be a question mark as the year progresses in terms of postseason play, but Saturday's game proved the team is still more than capable of getting the job done no matter what. Meyer himself said a win on Saturday is something to be proud of.
"Nothing was perfect, but we're going to enjoy that win and go," he said.
