Judaism Without Walls
By Jared David Berezin
Why am I an unaffiliated Jew? In many ways, I should want to join a congregation. I'm in my early 30s. I've had a bar mitzvah. I've traveled to Israel. I enjoy celebrating Jewish holidays, including Shabbat. Passover is my favorite time of the year, and my wife and I love hosting our annual interfaith-humanist-vegan seder with friends of many faiths. The central question of why I am not a member of a synagogue, and why I have no desire to join one, spawns more questions:
Many of us have read articles about shifting demographics, aging congregations, low service attendance and the increasing number of unaffiliated Jews. Many of these articles pit affiliation and unaffiliation against one another as competitors, with blame often irrationally ascribed to young Jews, especially those who fall in love with someone of another faith. These articles resemble conversations I've had over the years with older affiliated Jews, in which being young, Jewish and unaffiliated was treated as a temporary illness that would cure itself once the patient got married (to another Jew) or had children. What is often missing from these discussions is the spiritual value of being unaffiliated, and how creating Jewish moments outside of a synagogue can be meaningful and fulfilling.
Re-Discovering Judaism
My childhood experiences in a Reform synagogue convinced me that religion was something you learned and performed, whereas spirituality was something you felt and experienced in the secular world. The first crack in this logic occurred in college when I read the "Song of Songs." Then I attended a few events sponsored by the campus Hillel group, enrolled in a Hebrew language course and delved into Kafka's works. I began to associate Judaism not just with coldness and formality, but with intellectual curiosity and growth.
Years later I participated in a Birthright trip to Israel where music, nature, spontaneity, adventure, politics and Judaism intertwined. Judaism became bigger, complicated and more interesting. I was living at the time with my girlfriend (now my wife) who was raised Christian but has an aversion to all organized religion and rituals that tend to suppress individuality. So when I got home from Israel and was suddenly very excited about Judaism it freaked her out a little bit. But she could see that I was inspired, and so we began celebrating Shabbat together on Friday nights. We'd put out the challah, grape juice and candles, and I'd recite the prayers in Hebrew and English. But it all felt just as cold and empty as the rituals from my childhood; none of the vibrancy that I felt in Israel was there.
Shul Shopping
I began to wonder whether the missing ingredient was community. I drew up a list of about 15 Reform and Renewal congregations in the Boston area and visited one every Friday night. I mumbled along with the prayers and songs, but it wasn't inspiring. The predictability of the services, together with the congregation's passive reliance on their rabbis felt all too familiar. Although this familiarity provided sentimental comfort and a sense of belonging for me, since my girlfriend was not raised Jewish, nothing was familiar to her, and she didn't share the sense of comfort that I felt for the objects, rituals and language. Going to these various congregations with an interfaith partner was immensely valuable for me, because it caused me to ask myself these questions:
After attending dozens of synagogues both familiar and alternative, I was frustrated with myself for not feeling satisfied. I asked a rabbi whom I had been meeting with if I should just pick a synagogue, stay for a while and hope that it eventually felt right. His memorable response: "Keep looking. When it comes to religion you should never settle; you should be inspired."
My girlfriend encouraged me to try one more place, and to our surprise it seemed perfect for us. The community lived within its means, renting rather than owning a space, which lessened the financial burden on the congregants. There was spontaneous conversation and dancing during services. The rabbi was explicitly welcoming of every type of person, a strong supporter of lay participation and able to connect Jewish teachings and rituals to the reality we live in. We became members and joined the shul band, and a year later I was asked to join the board.
Although the congregation's practices were very alternative and free-spirited, it turned out that the key decision-makers in the community were just as obsessed with preserving their own way of doing things as I had found at the more formal synagogues. Deviations from their norm were considered inappropriate and without value. It pained me to hear board members refer to non-members (and even new members) as "outsiders." During one meeting, several board members decided that the purpose of services should always be to satisfy the congregants who have been there the longest, rather than engaging with younger generations. I soon felt like a distant member of a community built for others' needs. I resigned from the board several months later and the following year we did not renew our membership.
Finding a Meaningful Practice
Being unaffiliated does not prevent someone from being Jewish. It took me a while, however, to understand that being unaffiliated also does not prevent someone from having meaningful Jewish experiences. My wife and I are finding inspiration by celebrating Jewish holidays in our own way, tweaking traditions and developing new ones that have emotional and intellectual meaning for us. Some work, some don't. In addition to our annual seder we've started a Yom Kippur tradition with a fellow interfaith couple: a day of fasting, focused conversation, meditation and a nature walk. I've also officiated my maternal grandparents' funerals. These experiences require self-reliance and effort, and that's in large part what makes them so special.
As much as we enjoy our Jewish life outside synagogue walls, there are many things that congregations provide that a couple like us simply cannot: a place for communal prayer, access to rabbis steeped in knowledge and a support network. There is a beautiful timelessness in large groups of people gathering together in a single space.
While I'm not planning to join a congregation—my needs have changed—many Jews and interfaith families desire to find a community that fits their needs. For congregations looking to grow, rather than speak only to those already in the building (those who already understand the coded behavior and language, those who share the same expectations of a service experience), rabbis and their congregants could look around and notice who is not in the seats. Cultivating a community of explicit (rather than implicit) inclusiveness requires open, honest conversations among rabbis and congregants about their community's core mission, the unintended consequences of existing cultural norms and the potential for change. Here are some questions that I think about, and that I hope unaffiliated and affiliated readers can ponder and help me better understand:
The Mikveh Is Better Together
By Kelly Banker
As a young Jew raised in a secular home, I never imagined that being in a committed relationship with someone who was of a different faith tradition (or none at all) would feel especially impactful to me. In fact, labeling my relationship "interfaith" has been a fairly new paradigm in my life. However, in the past few years I have increasingly identified with my Jewish identity and have spent time living and working in various Jewish intentional communities.
I am in a committed relationship with a man who identifies with his Presbyterian roots, just as I identify with my Jewish ancestry. As we grow closer as a couple, we also spend more time navigating our diversity in religious beliefs and practices. These conversations and experiences have been and continue to be a blessing. The depth of our spiritual and intellectual engagement with one another and with our respective traditions serves as a profound model for the two of us in how to approach differences with love, respect and connection.
A few weeks ago, I was in deep need of a ritual space. I was yearning for a way to mark a rite of passage, a moment in time, with my partner, and yet finding something that would be meaningful for the both of us was feeling increasingly difficult. I felt drawn toward marking the day with Jewish ritual, which I knew might be a challenge as an interfaith couple. I can't quite name what the calling to Jewish ritual is, but it feels visceral, ancestral—written into my body.
When I asked my partner if he would be willing to mark this moment by visiting Mayyim Hayyim (a Jewish spirituality center in the Boston area) together, he was receptive but also distanced from it. He said that he would definitely go with me, but that it would be for me, and not for him. Since he is Christian, and the mikva'ot (ritual baths) at Mayyim Hayyim are for Jews and those converting to Judaism, immersing in the baths is neither an option for him nor a strong point of identification. A mikveh is designed for enacting a Jewish ritual that includes dunking under water (and involves much more that goes along with that act), typically to honor a lifecycle event, rite of passage or other life event. My partner is wonderful and knows how important the mikveh is to me, so he went along with me.
I had spoken to the staff at Mayyim Hayyim in advance of my visit to think through how to best make my partner feel welcomed and involved, despite his not being able to immerse. We talked through several options, including a hand-washing ritual and his being present in the space to witness my immersion. I was inspired by their attention to ensuring that Mayyim Hayyim was welcoming for an other-than-Jewish person who was understandably apprehensive about visiting a mikveh.
When my partner and I stepped across Mayyim Hayyim's threshold, we felt a subtle shift. The warmth and kindness of our mikveh guide made us both feel at ease and since she had been informed of our interfaith status, she focused her tour on providing information so that my partner would feel comfortable, able to ask questions and connected to the place and to the ritual itself. Prior to arriving, he and I had decided that he would witness my immersion. Yet there was a feeling that came over us as we were exploring the space with our guide, a sort of holiness that neither of us could quite pinpoint. As I began preparing, I felt my nerves begin to spark. Was it strange to have my partner witness me? Was it too non-traditional for the both of us? Would the immersion hold meaning for me if he was there, and vice versa?
I stepped into the mikveh room wrapped in my sheet, and there he was, waiting for me. As the mikveh guide had taught him, he held up the sheet to obscure his view and I walked the seven steps into the sacred water. As I immersed, he lowered the sheet just beneath his eyes to witness my transformation. I prayed, sang and felt held by the water-womb and by his modest, unassuming gaze. I not only felt the renewal that I had been seeking, but an increased connection to my own self and to my partner. In that moment, I felt the sacredness not only of the water and of the space, but of my body and of our love for one another. I climbed the seven steps out of the water and he wrapped me back in the sheet. I had never felt such warmth.
As we thanked our guide and stepped out into the brisk air, I felt a newness on my skin, the blooming of new beginnings and the bittersweet sting of endings. We held hands and I asked him what he thought. He breathed deeply and paused. "It's a holy place."
His words underscored what many of us who immerse here regularly know, but it was a feeling I never thought would be accessible to us as a couple. We walked on, hand in hand, the air chilly against our faces, still basking in the afterglow of Mayyim Hayyim's quiet holiness.

Why Do Trees Grow Till the End?
25 Hing Wo Street, Tin Wan, Aberdeen
Hong Kong
Gallery EXIT announces the inaugural exhibition of SOUTHSITE, a space dedicated to inter-media art practices located in Tin Wan, Aberdeen on Hong Kong Island South. The understated opening on 2 March will feature works by Roy Ng, Vivian Poon, Wun Ting Wendy Tai and a performance by Hong Kong New Music Ensemble (HKNME). Over the course of two months, the exhibition will grow to include over twenty artists. The grand closing on 5 May, 5 p.m. will be the first but final chance to view the exhibition in full.
The exhibition title, Why Do Trees Grow Till the End?, takes its inspiration from the notion that perennial life forms continue to grow unless terminated by external factors. In Black Cloud a kinetic installation by Roy Ng, a plastic bag warps in a placid rhythm as if caught by a breeze in slow motion. In Untitled (snow) and Untitled (4mm snow) , Vivian Poon takes the cotton tree as metaphor for snow in her native south China and paints passive scenes of the plant viewed through net curtains. Salt Water by Wun Ting Wendy Tai is a two part apothecary-esque installation. With suspended glass funnels, the first part extracts salt by evaporating brine collected along Cape Cod, US and the second tardily dissolves mounds of salt rock with small beads of water.
At the opening, the HKNME will perform Patangis-Buwaya by Jonas Baes. It is a work that involves four wind instruments and, with the audience's participation, whistles. The title literally means "sound that makes even the crocodile weep."
As the show proceeds to grow, two complimentary works will be added and announced each week. The blog whydotreesgrowtilltheend.blogspot.com will be updated on a weekly basis to document the on-going exhibition.

Jennifer's Very Personal Readings
Why Jennifer Angel's readings are very personal.
Having a reading with Jennifer Angel is not what you think it's going to be. Sure – she'll tell you what planets are in your chart, and yes – she'll tell you what's coming up in the next few months, with a few "watch out for this" notes… though typically a 60-minute reading splits into three parts:– 20 minutes on chart analysis, 20 minutes on astrological transits, and 20 minutes on clairvoyance, with a little extra home work for self-development thrown in.
Getting your chart mapped and analyzed is the first thing to do, because once Jennifer has this information, she then has a reference point for interpretations as well as a foundation for further readings or different types of readings… or if you want a forecast say every one or three months or so.
Jennifer says:
"The chart plotting or analysis allows me to get a blueprint of you, to get to know you… even if you have had your chart read elsewhere… every astrologer interprets the chart differently."
"Analyzing your astrological chart or wheel is my knowledge base to everything else. I love this part of the reading, it always highlights something amazing. It often provides a realization of your challenges, your gifts, your skills and what your soul purpose is – it just makes sense."
"The chart also shows me if your life is on track or at a crossroads when you need to make some changes. Having that chart means I can see something happening on a particular day, or week or month. But mostly, it gives me the answers to the most urgent questions you have at the time."
"Inevitably most personal readings end up talking about one specific area in a person's life or one specific question about their life… and that's when the reading goes into a clairvoyant level … and things come up … and we start a discussion about how to make difficult situations work. – Could it be an unhealthy pattern you've had for a while? What can be done to make things work? Are you prepared to change?
Because of these types of readings, Jennifer often finds herself continuing helping people to change habits and behavior beyond the readings. "I don't provide a fortune telling service as such, more a combination of psychic astrology and life coaching. I have devised my own style of reading, and the consultations have proven to be extremely successful. I guide people to live the life of their dreams, the life they were born to live. It's a fascinating, and rewarding experience!"
"These self-discovery discussions beyond the reading can take a few sessions to get one situation resolved… Often people will book the monthly reading consultation sessions and as people work with me, inevitably another issue arises. They tell me 'Jennifer, these things have been happening to me' and I say 'I'm not surprised looking at your chart'."
Jennifer also conducts regular sessions with a small selection of clients working on their "self-discovery." This is an intense course of sessions looking at your life's purpose, your self-esteem, confidence and making changes to your life going forward to be happy and successful.
If you'd like more information about these courses, please contact Jennifer.

Jennifer's Unique Style and How She Started
Jennifer Angel is different to other astrologers.
Forget the "trines" and "transits" and all the industry words you may find in other horoscopes. Angel writes her horoscopes so you can relate to them and understand.
She also has a unique method of forecasting. On her patented charts, she maps the position of the planets every week, so she can see at a glance where the planets are, their interactions with each other and the the Sun and Moon and what aspects of people's lives are being affected.
Not only that, she keeps these charts over several months and years because the movement of a planet explains several affects during its movements. "You have to realize that a planet's position for one day is not the full story. The daily chart only tells part of the story. Astrology is not necessarily down to an infinite degree on a particular date, although it can be, but it is much broader than that."
"I was doing a personal reading for a women in Florida, and noticed her chart showed the position of Venus in her chart was conjunct with the position of Venus on 19th August. 'Did you meet someone new on Friday?' She said no. Then she said, 'I met him on the 21st.' The orb of influence was around her but not exactly to the absolute degree.
Jennifer also writes with a spiritual message to her horoscopes.
"No matter what you are doing spiritually, you're still living in this physical world. When I'm writing my horoscopes I include a spiritual essence whilst suggesting a very practical way to use my message in this physical world. "
"I am a psychic astrologer so I do look at things clairvoyantly, more so for personal readings where I combine psychic, astrology and life coaching, my own special brand of consultation."
How it all started.
It all started when Jennifer Angel was 16. "I used to have these vivid dreams about events or situations, and then a few days later, those things happened."
At 16, petrified and bewildered, with no one to explain her experiences, Angel tried to stop herself dreaming to stop things happening. "I was so frightened I told my mom, she said 'I have those dreams all the while'. She described her dreams to me and I realized I was second generation, maybe many more, I don't know. However, I do know on soul level I have been a healer, teacher, or spiritual advisor for many many lives."
At 19, in an effort to understand what was happening to her, Jennifer started studying psychometry and attending closed-mediation sessions in Sydney, well as taking part in mandala meditations at a Buddhist temple, becoming a Reiki therapist and an Aura-Soma practitioner.
"I was studying everything and anything trying to understand what was happening to me. I suppose you could say it was the start of my "purple kaftan" phase as I kept wearing purple clothes and crystals around my neck. But I did grow out of that."
Jennifer's day job was being a successful and in-demand make-up artist to the stars of Australian film and TV. One day she found herself preparing Athena Star woman for a show, the two clicked and the rest is history. (Athena was the well-known astrologer of Vogue USA and a renowned author.) This was Jennifer's introduction to astrology, and though she was involved with many of Athena's projects and workshops, Angel never wrote anything under her own name.
Jennifer was however making TV segments about astrology on network TV. After completing counseling courses, with diplomas under her belt, Angel starred in her own chat show on Talk Radio with phone-in questions on relationships from the public. This coincided with her column that appeared in a women's weekly mainstream magazine also on relationships.
"Looking back, I've realized I've been helping people to better themselves on some sort of level. In my cosmetic days I was making them look good on the outside, now I'm making them feel good on the inside."
Jennifer's first astrology column was published in STAR! Magazine.

Titel: The future of investment arbitration.
Einband: Hardcover
Über diesen Titel
Investment arbitration is at the cutting edge of international law and dispute resolution, and is predicted to be a major factor in the development of the global economic system in years to come. This one-volume monograph contains contributions from leading experts on a wide range of topics of both theoretical importance and practical implication that will affect the future of investment arbitration. The highly innovative chapters combine to form a constructive and valuable discussion for all in the arbitration field. The contributors, chosen to represent the full spectrum of perspectives, are leading arbitration experts from all over the world, including ICSID insiders, US government officials, UNCTAD research personnel, seasoned investment arbitrators and counsel, and renowned legal scholars.
The book is divided into three themes, with the first centering on the adequacy of UNCITRAL and ICSID arbitration rules, with particular attention to recent and proposed changes. The second theme focuses on the future of bilateral investment treaties, discussing trends in the interpretation of treaty provisions and the debate concerning the efficacy of the treaties in benefiting developing countries. The third theme revolves around the public function of investment arbitration decisions, including the use of arbitration to resolve disputes between sovereigns and the arbitrators' role as a guardian of international public policy.
The Future of Investment Arbitration is unique in its outstanding range of topics and the expertise of the contributors. It previews and guides future directions in the field, as well as discussing the larger policy implications of specific rules. It includes cutting-edge analysis of empirical research regarding BITS that is essential to evaluating many assumptions about investment law and arbitration. Finally, the book takes a broad perspective, examining the rules discussed within the larger structural context of investment arbitration, and drawing investment arbitration into the wider setting of international law and corporate governance.
Roger P. Alford is an associate professor of law at Pepperdine Law School. Professor Alford served as a senior legal advisor with the Claims Resolution Tribunal for Dormant Accounts in Switzerland, the tribunal established by the Volcker Commission to resolve claims to Holocaust-era dormant Swiss bank accounts.

Back to Amazing Thailand!
Chiang Khong Travel Blog› entry 49 of 55 › view all entries
Apparently, I was sleep-reading last night, according to Burger. And I might well have been, though no-one has told me that I sleep-read before. I usually only sleep-doodle. This place has the coldest shower in anywhere we've been so far, though it's good for waking you up for another 8 hour boat journey! After a pre-ordered breakfast (bread and jam), the main mission today is to get rid of all the remaining kip. In Pak Beng, this means buying lots of food, but it's essential for the boat ride anyway (though this boat has a bar, and snack selection!). So, we buy our ticket from the vendor at the top of the hill to Huay Xia, and it's 10,000 kip (5 quid), which is pretty good going.
As mentioned this boat has snack selection, bar, and cushions! Unfortunately, the seats don't move like the other one, but it's OK, I can live with that. I'm not sure what Pak Beng was like before tourism, but it's only there as a mid-way point betwenn Luang Prabang, and Huay Xia, and lacks any sort of charm, or character. It seems to be just a series of shabby guesthouses, and one huge Hilton style hotel. Definitely not somewhere to spend any time at all, so leaving is not a crutch.
Passing through more forests, and bamboo villages, the speedboats come rushing by periodically. It's a really peaceful way to get into Thailand, and is a good chance to do some reading, and thinking. More monks get on at a small village stop, whilst I read "The Perfect Storm" and the rainclouds rush in. Maybe not such a good choice of book, but it coms to nothing, and within 7 hours we're in Huay Xai, where the sunset is stunning, Vientiane standards. Unfortunately, there's no time to hang around, as we do the easiest border crossing yet, takes 10 minutes (including the boat ride from Huay Xia, over to Chiang Khong in Thailand), and we're back in the land of smiles.
The plan was to originally go to Chiang Rai, and spend the night there, but we decide to just stay in Chiang Khong, there's a few guesthouses about, and we find one, called Bamboo (aren't they all?), for 200 baht per night, for a room with a fan, and mosquito net. Burger has bank issues, as no ATM (there are loads here, a sure sign of being back in Thailand!) will let him take any money out. Bloody Barclays! After some food, we have some drinks at a bar down the road.
A few drinks, turns into innumberable numbers of drinks, which turns into karaoke! Always a good night, when Don't Look Back in Anger is sung. Somehow we get back to the guesthouse, and pass out, with hazy recollections of singing some Oasis song...

Two months after he was sworn in as the 31st governor of Sindh , Justice (retired) Saeeduz Zaman Siddiqui passed away in Karachi, reported Waqt News on Wednesday.
According to a Governor House spokesman, Sindh Assembly Speaker Agha Siraj Durrani will serve as the acting governor of Sindh .
Siddique had been hospitalised soon after his appointment due to chronic problems but was discharged from the hospital after he showed signs of improvement.
The retired justice replaced a much younger Ishratul Ibad in November 2016 who had served as the 30th governor for at least 14 years. Siddique's appointment was met with much criticism from major opposition parties, especially Pakistan People's Party (PPP).

Thank you so much for availing us of your place in Guanajuato. It was the perfect spot for us. Close to the action, nicely appointed with all the amenities, and yet with the feel of being truly in Mexico. The callejoneadas walking the streets in the evenings with their fun music and following crowds were so entertaining. We loved wandering the streets of Guanajuato, getting lost, sitting in the plazas and people watching. What a fun and relaxing vacation.
We loved our stay here. The house was perfectly located with excellent restaurants nearby. In fact, so close and wonderful that we didn't cook although the kitchen was stocked with everything you would need to prepare a meal for yourselves or a small dinner party. The rooftop deck is a perfect place to watch sunset and overlook the beautiful city. Situated on a hillside upon entering the house, you climb steps to the bedroom on the second floor, then on to the third floor is the living room, dining room and kitchen. But you don't mind the stairs because you enjoy their collection of whimsical local art decorations along the way. It comfortably sleeps two but could also accommodate another single person. No worries about carrying bags up the steps because there is a large dumbwaiter to handle them. We highly recommend the house!!
Casa San Roque is unique: both fun and historical. Talk about "Location, location, location!" You are right in the heart of everything in beautiful and historic Guanajuato. From the rooftop terrace, and from the three 3rd floor living room windows, the views are magnificent. The house is located right next door to the San Roque church, and you can see the La Pipila statue on the hill, the University of Guanajuato, the famous Hidalgo Market, and the revolutionarily historic Alhondigas de Granitas, to name a few, from these incredible windows. All of these places, in addition to the main Basilica and the Jardin de la Union, are a short walk from the house. And every night we were serenaded by groups of wandering minstrels in historic costumes with lutes and guitars, singing favorites such as De Colores and La Bomba. It was magical!
Before our trip, I spoke to one of the owners, Meta Hunt, on the phone and she is very friendly and a wealth of information. She also sent us information on Guanajuato and the house in advance of our stay. Nancy, the House Manager, met us on arrival and was delightful, and very helpful, and is only a phone call away. They, and now we, also highly recommend Israel Torres for all your driving needs; he is bilingual, reliable, and a terrific tour guide. He took us door-to-door from our casa in San Miguel de Allende to the Guanajuato Casa San Roque. But book him in advance if possible. His email is firstname.lastname@example.com.
There is a dumbwaiter to help with moving luggage and groceries to the two 2nd floor bedrooms and the 3rd floor's well equipped kitchen/living room. There are 3½ flights of stairs in the house from the ground floor to the rooftop terrace, but there is a good handrail and of course the dumbwaiter.
The house is full of Mexican and other folk art, and is charming, from the amazing brass frog's on the front door (Guanajuato means 'Place of the Frogs'), to the delightful miniature furniture in the kitchen and elsewhere. There is plenty of tourist information, and beautiful books on Mexican art.
There is so much to see and do in Guanajuato that we were sorry we were only there for 4 short days! We really enjoyed breakfast and lunch at Casa Valadez on the Jardin de la Union, right across from the Teatro Juarez. Don't miss the view from La Pipila, or the Quixote Museum! We highly recommend Casa San Roque! Thanks Meta, Marsha, Nancy and Israel for a memorable stay.
I am really stuck for words on how amazing your beautiful casa is here in Guanajanto. I arrived here with a lovely greeting from Nancy the manager.
She was a huge help, pointing me in the right direction and giving me some great advice, and she is just lovely. And only a phone call away.
It was just incredible house, perfect location, right in the centre city but still hidden away. Every morning I had breakfast on the rooftop terrace with a view of the whole city. The house is so well maintained and the bedroom very comfortable. As well as the living room, and kitchen is really well equipped with state of the art appliances, and all essentials, it was great for cooking. The collection of artwork, books made whole house is magical. It was really inspiring.
I spent whole days trying to get lost around the city, visiting muesums, in the markets and strolling around the colourful streets, it was more than I ever expected. This house reflects the magic of Guanajuanto. Highly recommended. I wish I had more time here, one week was not enough. Every night been serenaded from my window. Thank you, Meta and Nancy, a week I will never forget.
We just experienced 20 nights in this wonderful home and hope to return soon! The Casa is impeccably clean and is in a perfect location. It is filled with love, art, music, and life. It is safe, secure, and convenient for walking everywhere within Guanajuato. We were able to cook incredible meals due to the well-furnished and fabulous kitchen stocked with spices, appliances, and everything we needed. The plates, glasses, bowls, pitchers and serving dishes are all local Mexican art objects, and are fabulous! The pans are those you'd find in a chef's kitchen. The Juarez Market has all food you might need and is a short walk away (fun to go there to buy veggies, milk, cheese, bread, ice cream, fruits, etc.). The water filtration system in the kitchen was amazing - we always had safe water to drink.
The roof deck on this house is splendid (you can see so many cool things from it - including the market, the university, the colorful houses on the hills, the statue of Pipila, the many historic churches of Guanajuato, sunrises, and sunsets. We chose to do our own laundry, hand washing our clothes with the mountain air drying them quickly! We did yoga every day on the roof deck. There are very comfortable adirondack chairs and stools up there, and a nice bench!
The house has wonderfully appointed with 2 bedrooms, comfortable sheets, towels, pillows, and blankets. There are many space heaters for those cooler mornings (not needed while we were there). There is exquisite art throughout - simply beautiful!
The owner is extremely nice and helpful - very responsive and caring. The property manager, Nancy, is incredibly responsible and has a cellphone and land line. Every question we had (and there were few due to the helpful booklet of instructions and reference info left for us). We felt very safe and very taken care of.
The home always has plenty of hot water for washing dishes and also for showering. There were absolutely no issues with anything in the home (the dumb waiter was temporarily inoperable, but was not needed). Guanajuato is filled with activity and music and ambient sounds during the day and night, including occasional fireworks, lots of performers in the streets until around 10 or so in the night, birds whistling, and dogs barking at all hours. Expect to experience this when here - it's part of the charm and it's what we miss the most! !Viva Mexico!
The house is beautiful. The location is great -- right in the heart of it all. The owners were extremely responsive and helpful. We enjoyed being able to walk to the market and cook, take coffee to rooftop, or explore all the shops, restaurants and plazas within walking distance. We spent 5 days, but could have easily spent 5 months.Thank you!

Most people think of dark bags under the eyes as a link to stress and lack of sleep. In actual fact it is due to an excessive storage of blood.
Eyecircle™ helps drastically reduce dark bags under your eyes!
Dark Eye Circles
Most people think of dark bags under the eyes as a symptom of tiredness, anxiety, stress or lack of sleep. The circles or swellings are normally a result of poor blood circulation, causing less oxygenated blood and a bluish appearance. However, some people suffer from dark brown to blackish circles under their eyes which is quite a different matter to the usual purplish appearance known by most people. This permanent discoloration is a result of the ineffective break down of clotted blood which has managed to escape through the delicate capillaries under the eyes.
Eyecircle™ Dramatically Reduces the Appearance of Dark Eye Circles.
Eyecircle™ will allow you to achieve dynamic, fresh and more youthful looking skin with the active ingredient Haloxyl which is a matrikine peptide.
Active Ingredients
Haloxyl: A revolutionary matrikine peptide which helps get rid of dark eye circles by breaking down degraded red blood cells and also strengthens the skin in the affected area. The skin appears less transparent and brighter.
Waltheria Indica Extract & Fruit Acid Complex: A combination of active ingredients that is used as a natural skin brightener and also helps in reducing pigmentation. It additionally makes skin smoother and softer.
Gently cleanse and dab the skin dry. After cleaning the face, gently apply the cream below the eyes, working inwards to outwards.
How does Eyecircle™ work?
Eyecircle™ works with a combination of ingredients which also includes the breakthrough Haloxyl. Haloxyl neutralizes the appearance of dark pigmentation caused by bilirubin (a biological breakdown product of the red-colored blood pigment) and iron. Eyecircle™ also includes a blend of natural vitamins, skin brighteners and moisturizing ingredients in order to nurture and brighten the delicate area around the eyes.

From the author of the beloved 30 Lessons for Living, Karl Pillemer's 30 Lessons for Living first became a hit and then became a classic. Readers loved the sage advice and great stories from extraordinary older Americans who shared what they wish they had known when they were starting out. Now, Pillemer returns with lessons on one of the most talked-about parts of that book - love, relationships, and marriage.
Based on the most detailed survey of long married people ever conducted, 30 Lessons for Loving shows the way to lifelong, fulfilling relationships. The author, an internationally renowned gerontologist at Cornell University, offers sage advice from the oldest and wisest Americans on everything from finding a partner, to deciding to commit, to growing old together. Along the way, the book answers questions like these: How do you know if the person you love is the right one? What are the secrets for improving communication and reducing conflict? What gets you through the major stresses of marriage, such as child-rearing, work, money issues, and inlaws?
From interviews with 700 elders, 30 Lessons for Loving offers unique wisdom that will enrich anyone's relationship life, from people searching for the right partner to those working to keep the spark alive after decades together. Filled with great stories, wise observations, and useful advice, 30 Lessons for Loving is destined to become another classic.
"The advice is astute, fresh, and well selected by Pillemer. This book would serve as an excellent gift for newlyweds." (Publishers Weekly)

Why can't we just let Ian Curtis die already? It's what he wanted! Still, if you've been waiting for the newest incarnation of Joy Division since She Wants Revenge, downtown Miami venue the Vagabond might provide the fix you need this Friday. Besides, with pink slips looming over everyone's head and 8.5 percent of Americans unemployed, it's a legitimate time to reflect on the depths of your emotional abyss.

West Palm Beach indie outfit Surfer Blood, formerly known as TV Club, revives the same lo-fi, post-punk qualities Joy Division embodied. The band is a little '80s, a little experimental, and at times more than a little melancholic. Beyond all the gloomy stuff, though, Surfer Blood's songs are catchy as hell and incorporate Of Montreal-style harmonies that mitigate its maudlin mood. Yet any hint of joyful tidings diminishes at first read of the band's MySpace page. Members include "Id, Ego, and Super-ego." That's so self-aware of them... viva Ian Curtis!

PopGun Presents
Glasslands Gallery
289 Kent Avenue
Brooklyn, NY, 11249
Doors 8:00 PM (event ends at 11:59 PM)
This event is 21 and over
Heliotropes hail from Brooklyn, NY. With a sound described as "doomy
pop" - containing elements of shoegaze, goth and classic psych metal -
Heliotropes blend influences from Spacemen 3, Spiritualized, Black
Sabbath and My Blood Valentine. On this lo-fi EP, the guitar riffs are
murky, the drums are bludgeoning, and the shrills of the violin are
haunting. But it is California native Jessica Numsuwankijkul's
detached, wistful vocals - which bring to mind Richard Ashcroft meets
Mazzy Star - that turn spacey dissonance into beautiful hypnotic rock.
III is an EP that shows a lot of potential for a group of talented
musicians and songwriters, who are sure to carve out their own space
in an exciting, emerging (and hopefully lasting) trend in independent

Unanswered: Locking and connection properties ASA V10
We recently upgraded to V10 from V7 (Sybase ASA) and are having a lot of connection and locking problems. Without me going into too much detail, can anyone just tell me if they had any problems upgrading and things to look out for that may have changed?

Gap in Kawneer Double Door
A quick learner from Catawissa Pennsylvania says:
April 6, 2016
My gap between the double door measures 3/8 which I'm going to try and close up by shimming the hinges, but what is the max size gap these will seal?
Dave Sr. from SWISCO responded:
April 7, 2016
You could probably install the 58-085 with a little bit of the base exposed to make up the 3/8" gap you describe. What I have done in some cases was to pack out the hinges with a type of shim. I have even used "shirt cardboard" in a pinch. If you want, you can send us some photos of your doors for us to take a look at and give you some recommendations.
A quick learner from Catawissa Pennsylvania says:
April 8, 2016
I actually use hard plastic hinge shims ( you should invest in them) However as a typical door does these are open at the bottom requiring shimming on the bottom 2 hinges, The problem is the reveal on the top Might not allow full adjustment as it may rub on the head jamb. Thank you though and thanks for the insight on weatherstrip adjustment what is the max it can stick out?
Dave Sr. from SWISCO responded:
April 11, 2016
I would suggest shimming out the door hinges equally so that the door won't rub at the top jamb. Take note that most commercial doors have an adjustable setting block screw at the top of the door. If the door does rub at the top, you would turn the screw counter clockwise and pull down on the door handle side a little to get it away from the header. I believe either weather stripping normally stick out 1/4" max. You might be able to cheat a little and get another 1/8" out exposing some of the metal base. You might want to order the genuine Kawneer weather stripping, 58-111, along with the special mounting screws 33-108.

An excerpt from www.HouseOfNames.com archives copyright © 2000 - 2017
Midlothian. The name Cairn is also derived from the Gaelic word carn, which means pile of stones, and referred to the stone burial chambers we now call cairns.
Cairn Early Origins
Midlothian, where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
Cairn Spelling Variations
Cairn Spelling Variations
Surnames that evolved in Scotland in the Middle Ages often appear under many spelling variations. These are due to the practice of spelling according to sound in the era before dictionaries had standardized the English language. Cairn has appeared as Cairns, Cairn, Kairnes, Carnys and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
The North American colonies beckoned, with their ample land and opportunity as their freedom from the persecution suffered by so many Clan families back home. Many Scots even fought against England in the American War of Independence to gain this freedom. Recently, clan societies have allowed the ancestors of these brave Scottish settlers to rediscover their familial roots. Among them:

Obvoiusly changes colour but when it goes really dark shades it has a white stripe down the length of its body.

I saw this great piece of information on http://www.virtualapp.net/scripts.html and thought that this was a nice v1 script for loading application into cache. This script will check for and Preload only those SoftGrid applications currently not 100% in cache for the user.
Application pre-loading script that can be run on client machine in order to have all application packages for the user 100% cached.
This script will run through the list of application available to user and issue Load command against those ones currently not 100% cached. It will also take in the account that multiple applications/shortcuts might exists for one SoftGrid package so that load is not initiated more than once per package. This is done by reading through cached OSD's and identifying unique packages by GUID in <CODEBASE> element.
If script is not able to open cached OSD, this will usually indicate NTFS ACLs set inappropriately and as such error is logged by script if silent-mode is not in effect.
(revision history)
You can execute script using either cscript.exe (runs in console-window) or wscript.exe (does not show console) by issuing command:
cscript.exe //nologo ..path_to..\SoftGridPreloadApps.vbs
wscript.exe //nologo ..path_to..\SoftGridPreloadApps.vbs
This command can then be included in logon-scripts, Run-key in registry etc. to have it run when user logs on.
Inside script, change variable called Silent to "True" (without quotation marks) to output status and error messages. This might not be wanted behaviour when running with wscript.exe as it will prompt dialog boxes to user for each and every message.

Lawyers Seek to Add Current Athlete to Antitrust Challenge to NCAA
July 9, 2013
Lawyers representing former athletes who are challenging the National Collegiate Athletic Association's commercial use of their likenesses (for which the athletes receive no compensation) are trying to make sure that the association will not punish any current athletes who join the suit, USA Today reported. The lead lawyer in the antitrust suit send a letter asking the NCAA to stipulate that it would not retaliate if a current player is added to the suit, as a federal judge's ruling last week permitted. An NCAA lawyer told the newspaper that the association would never take action against an athlete for joining a legal matter against the association.

SANTA CLARA -- Alex Smith has a new view on the quarterback position from his first six years in the NFL.Literally.And he has a much better grip than earlier in his career, too.Smith's view on the field is more unobstructed that previous seasons -- dating back to his college days at Utah, when he wanted a little more face protection because of the volume of hits he absorbed. Now, he has one fewer horizontal bar on his facemask.
In the past, the top bar on his facemask came up to the bridge of his nose:2010
Now, the top bar runs lower just below the tip of his nose:2011
"I've been thinking about changing it for a while," Smith told CSNBayArea.com of the new facemask he debuted at the beginning of training camp. "It's a visibility thing. That goes back to college. I wore it in college because I ran so much. I just stuck with it. I've been thinking about changing it for a few years now and I finally did it."Has it helped?"There are less bars," Smith said. "It's different. I notice the difference. I have less stuff in my face and my eyes."
RELATED: Alex Smith 2011 game logs Alex Smith career stats
Remember the early days of Smith's career when his hand size was being scrutinized because the ball would often slip out of his grasp like a wet bar of soap?Back in those days, the NFL rules allowed for the home team to provide the footballs for both teams. So Smith would show up for road games anxious to find out what kind of footballs awaited him.From that time in his career, Smith developed a habit that remains as part of his game-day routine.Every time there's a timeout or a change of possession, Smith is thrown a football near the sideline that he maintains in his hands until he tosses it aside to begin the next 49ers offensive possession."It goes back to what the NFL rules were when I first got into the league, when you didn't get to travel with your own footballs," Smith said. "So whoever was the opponent that week, the balls could be brand new. So I got into the habit of whatever the type of ball was, I'd get that type of ball on the sideline so I had it."Whatever I felt the ball was like from the first series, I'd go get a ball that was similar to it and just have it there with me. You'd never know. You'd practice all week with broken-in balls -- ones that were worn in -- and then the day of the game you'd be playing in St. Louis and it would be a ball right out of the box. Those were the balls they supplied."Now, each team is allowed to supply footballs for their own offense. During the week, the 49ers rub the sheen off new footballs with a mud similar to what Major League umpires use to get baseballs ready for game action."Our QB balls are similar to the game balls, so that's what I grab now," Smith said.Smith lost 13 fumbles in his first 30 NFL starts. In his past 36 starts, Smith has turned the ball over just five times on fumbles.Smith posted career-best numbers in helping the 49ers win the NFC West with a 13-3 record. He is the main reason the 49ers tied an NFL record for fewest turnovers (10) in the regular season. His vision and feel for the game coincidence or not -- are two of the main reasons behind the turnaround.

Designing a wagon should be simple. How many variations of a rectangular box on wheels can there be? Lots, as it turns out, especially in the luxury niche where we find ourselves today.
Interior layouts are becoming increasingly complex, as manufacturers attempt to provide as many occupant-load variations as possible. "My wagon flips its seats in more ways than yours" is the premise.
Luxury wagon drivers, mums with two or three kids, are also being provided with an array of new safety and convenience features. Some designers are even thinking about how to make things easy when you're struggling to your car in the shopping centre, loaded to the eyeballs with six bags of groceries and a toddler swinging from each arm.
These three wagons, in different price ranges, each offer something versatile and contemporary inside the box.

Tracy Morgan is an American comedian, and actor who came to the limelight thanks to Saturday Night Live. His net worth is estimated at $18 million.
Tracy Morgan Net Worth: Brief History
Tracy Jamal Morgan was born on November 10, 1968 in the Bronx and raised in a housing project in Bedford Stuyvesant, Brooklyn. As common with most low-income neighborhoods, Tracy's was crawling with drug dealers and gang violence was the norm. His father, Jimmy Morgan was a Vietnam war veteran whose return from war in 1974 should've gladdened the family considering that not many people made it back alive, however, the opposite was the case as Jimmy came along with way too much baggage- a chronic drug addiction. As a result of this, he left the family when Tracy was just a 6 year old.
Tracy continued to grow with his mom until his high school days at DeWitt Clinton when he moved in with his dad. Soon Jimmy Morgan was sober but had already contacted AIDS as a result of the needles he had used for drugs. Tracy, 17, who was in his second year dropped out of school in 1985 to cater for his ailing father and also married his high school sweetheart Sabina. Unfortunately, Jimmy Morgan died two years later in November 1987 aged 39.
Tracy, with his hands full with responsibility turned to selling crack cocaine for livelihood, but only made moderate success. He soon added road-side stand up comedy to increase his income. His best friend at the time was impressed by his skills and urged him to actively pursue a career in comedy. Unfortunately, he was shot dead during a gang raid. As a result Tracy who was double-minded at first made the decision to pursue comedy in honor of his late friend.
Tracy Morgan Net Worth: Breakthrough Comedy Career
Tracy Morgan began doing stand up at the Apollo Center, Harlem and soon found success enough to get his family (his wife and three sons) a home in a better, less-violent Riverdale in the Bronx. He continued to achieve success at Uptown Comedy Club, Harlem and in 1994 he was selected to play the supporting role of "Hustle Man" in Martin Lawrence's TV show "Martin". He stayed on the show until 1996, a year before it ended.
Right after leaving "Martin", Morgan got his major break as a cast on on sketch comedy show Saturday Night Live. He remained on SNL from 1996 to 2003. In his final 8th season at SNL, Morgan earned thousands of dollars per episode. Morgan continues to make surprise appearances to the show as host.
Also during his SNL period, he landed roles in a number of feature films including "A Thin Line Between Love and Hate" (1996), "Half Baked" (1998), "Bamboozled" (2000), "30 Years to Life" (2001) and Chris Rock's "Head of State" (2003).
Tracy Morgan Net Worth: Continued Success With 30 Rock
After leaving SNL, Morgan launched his own show "The Tracy Morgan Show" in 2003. However, due to low ratings, it only aired for only one season. Things looked bright again when he was specifically selected by fellow ex SNL star Tina Fey to star as Tracy Jordan, a parody of himself in his hit sitcom "30 Rock". In the first season which premiered in 2006, Morgan received $75,000 per episode which totaled $1.5 million for the first season. That paycheck grew exponentially to the peak of $2.2 million per season from its penultimate 6th season in 2012. That same year, he received $5 million for reprising his voice role of Luiz in Rio 2.
While on 30 Rock, Morgan also starred in a number of feature films like "First Sunday" (2008, Gr – $38 million), "Superhero Movie" (2008, Gr – $71 million), "Cop Out" (2010, Gr- $55.6 million), and "Death At a Funeral" (2010, Gr, $49.1 million).
In addition to these, Morgan was also active in touring which grossed an average of $41,000 per stop and from that endeavor alone, he could've made an estimated $500,000 per year.
Tracy Morgan Net Worth: Car Crash And Come Back
On June 7, 2014 Morgan alongside comedians Harris Stanton, James McNair and others were returning from a comedy tour in a Mercedes Sprinter minibus when they became involved in a fatal 6 vehicle crash initiated by a Walmart transport-truck driver Kevin Roper at New Jersey. The crash left Morgan's partner and longtime friend James McNair, aged 62, dead while Morgan himself was brutally injured and flown via a chopper to a nearby hospital. Morgan spent 8 days in coma and over a month in rehabilitation.
Morgan filled a lawsuit against Walmart in July 2014 and received an undisclosed settlement fee in May 2015 which has not been added to his $18 million net worth, so apparently, Morgan could be worth far more than that. While Morgan's settlement fee remains concealed it is known that Walmart paid deceased McNair's two children $10 million.
A few months after the settlement, Morgan in August 2015, bought a 2-acre, 22-room mansion in Alpine, New Jersey for $14 million and married his longtime fiancee, model Megan Wollover with whom he has a daughter, Maven Sonae. He divorced his first wife of whom he was estranged for 8 years in 2009.
Tracy Morgan has recovered fully and his back to earning top dollar. His comedy tour "Tracy Morgan: Picking Up the Pieces" began on February 2016.

text: My fraternity's been looking to buy a new speaker setup recently on a budget of ~$550. It's gonna be used strictly for music in a room that's about 20' x 15' (this is a generous estimate, it's probably less than this), and it's a dance floor room, so bass is pretty important. Originally, I was going to get a receiver and a subwoofer and use the speakers I already have (pictured here: http://i40.photobucket.com/albums/e242/sacredraider/IMG_0397.jpg), but I was recommended on another forum to get these instead. http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00009WBYI/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk 2 of these http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001AMUFMA/ref=cm_cd_asin_lnk and this receiver On another forum, I was recommended to get this http://www.overstock.com/Electronics/PylePro-1200-watt-Complete-DJ-Speaker-System/4685954/product.html?rcmndsrc=2 I'm leaning towards the DJ setup because of the 4 channel amp, and it looks like something a fraternity house could really use, especially with the mic setup. I'm worried about the bass though. Thoughts?
