Grandkids Know What Easter is All About
Easter is a time for reflecting and rejoicing.
Coloring eggs and receiving baskets of candy and goodies. Lifting our voices up in song and giving thankful praise to our risen Lord. Being able to stop eating fish on Friday if you are Catholic. Going to church annually, on this particular Sunday, sometimes the only day folks attend all year.
It is also a time for reflection. The image above of God in His glory was taken from my step son Dan Bronold's face book page. Recently deceased, it was among his face book pictures posted. It stood out as most images were of his carefree lifestyle. This one was front and center because, at the heart of who he was was a Christian, a believer. In his quiet moments, he spoke of God. I think he intentionally posted that picture to let those of us that knew him know for certain, heaven was his end destination. Perhaps he even knew he would get there much sooner than the rest of us that love him but his image so proudly displayed let us know we will indeed see him on the other side. I am so proud of Dan for posting that image. As Jesus promised, if we believe, we too will get there.
Easter brings color in to children's lives along with sugar. Easter gives hope to the hopeless. Easter lights the way for Christians during troubled times in their lives and gives our journey purpose. It is the basis of our faith.
Perhaps the innocence of children celebrating Easter exemplifies the meaning of Easter best. Better than any words I can dare to write......see what you think...

Craig Finn & The Uptown Controllers
Union Transfer
1026 Spring Garden St.
Philadelphia, PA, 19123
Doors 8:00 PM / Show 9:00 PM
This event is all ages
After three years out of the spotlight, Japandroids announced their new album last week. Near To The Wild Heart Of Life is due out January 27, 2017 on Anti- Records, with a special early release for vinyl on January 24th. Additionally, they released the first single of the same name, prompting Pitchfork to say "...a new Japandroids record feels like hero's return," and Noisey concurred, "thank the good lord for Japandroids." A pre-order for the album is up now at www.japandroids.com, with the option to buy the special 7" edition of the single featuring a b-side cover of Talking Heads' "Love → Building on Fire."
Today, the band announces their first world tour in three years. Starting in Madison, WI on February 13th at the Majestic Theatre, taking them to their biggest show in NYC to date at Terminal 5 on February 23rd and a night at LA's Henry Fonda on March 10th, finally winding up in their hometown of Vancouver on March 20th at the Commodore. A European tour will follow in April. See all dates below. Tickets will be on sale this Friday, November 11th at 10am local time.
Near To The Wild Heart Of Life, was written clandestinely throughout 2014 and 2015 in Vancouver, Toronto, New Orleans, and Mexico City. It was (mostly) recorded by Jesse Gander (who had previously recorded both Post-Nothing and Celebration Rock) at Rain City Recorders in Vancouver, BC (September-November, 2015). One song, True Love And A Free Life Of Free Will, was recorded by Damian Taylor during an exploratory recording session at Golden Ratio in Montreal, QC (February, 2015). The album was mixed by Peter Katis at Tarquin Studios in Bridgeport, CT (May, 2016) and mastered by Greg Calbi at Sterling Sound in New York, NY (July, 2016).
Like Post-Nothing and Celebration Rock, the album is 8 songs. This is because 8 songs is the standard template for a great rock n roll album: Raw Power by The Stooges, Born To Run by Bruce Springsteen, Marquee Moon by Television, IV by Led Zeppelin, Horses by Patti Smith, Paranoid by Black Sabbath, Remain In Light by Talking Heads, Master Of Puppets by Metallica, etc.
Like Post-Nothing and Celebration Rock, the album was sequenced specifically for the LP. On Near To The Wild Heart Of Life, side A (songs 1-4) and side B (songs 5-7) each follow their own loose narrative. Taken together as one, they form an even looser narrative, with the final song on side B (song 8) acting as an epilogue.
"A poetic storyteller and portraitist of people adrift and clawing their way forward in a depressed American landscape." - NY Times
Craig Finn has created a universe as big as America, a stage that stretches from Minneapolis to Ybor City, from the bars of Chicago to behind bars in Memphis" - Pitchfork
Perhaps best known as the singer of The Hold Steady, Craig Finn is a Minnesota-bred singer/songwriter and guitarist based in New York City. Finn's highly descriptive lyrical style has a focus on narrative, crafting whole worlds for the people in his songs to exist within. In 1994, he helped form Lifter Puller, refining his craft over the course of their three albums before the band called it quits in 2000. At this point, Finn relocated to New York and reunited with Lifter Puller bassist Tad Kubler to form The Hold Steady in 2003. While the band's whiskey-fueled bar rock sound was a departure from the angular, synth-filled sounds of Lifter Puller, Finn's lyrically dense storytelling style remained intact, making The Hold Steady the thinking man's bar band. After five critically acclaimed albums with the band, 2012 saw Finn release his first solo album Clear Heart Full Eyes. In 2014, The Hold Steady released its sixth album, and in 2015, Finn released his second solo album, Faith in the Future. FITF is drawn from a set of songs inspired by themes of loss and survival that Finn wrote in the wake of his mother's death. In its 4-star review of Faith in the Future, Rolling Stone said, "The arrangements trump Finn's 2011 solo debut, upscaling that album's roots rock with choral backdrops and horn charts that recall the Van Morrison gestures of The Wild, the Innocent, and the E Street Shuffle. It's a good call for a literary songwriter who deserves, and earns, a broad canvas." FITF ranked #8 on American Songwriter magazine's Best Of...2015. For his dates supporting Japandroids, Finn will be joined by The Uptown Controllers to a create a straight up four piece rock experience that amplifies his unique storytelling. Finn is currently preparing his third solo album, which will see a release in early 2017.

Rõivas: What is the one thing I have done wrong as prime minister? ({{commentsTotal}})
Taavi Rõivas, who was forced to resign as Prime Minister of Estonia following the passing of a no-confidence vote in the Riigikogu on Wednesday, asked in an interview on ETV that evening what exactly it was that he did wrong as Estonia's head of government.
When one example offered was the corruption case involving the state-owned Port of Tallinn, Rõivas responded that he condemned that issue immediately, stating that it would be difficult to reproach either him or the Reform Party regarding that matter.
Regarding the prospect of a potential coalition including the Reform and Center Parties, the outgoing prime minister responded that for so long as he remained its chairman, the Reform Party would not be involved in a political left turn. "Under no circumstances will the Reform Party be guarantor of a left turn in Estonia," he stated.
Likewise he found that such a coalition could not be formed without the approval of recently replaced longtime Center Party chairman Edgar Savisaar.
Rõivas found that the interest of the Social Democratic Party (SDE), a former junior coalition partner, in a more left-wing government was understandable given the fact that they had been a part of a number of right-wing governments while themselves maintaining a different ideology. "I don't approve of how they did it, but I understand it," he said.
At the same time, he found that in the case of the other former junior partner, the Pro Patria and Res Publica Union (IRL), their motives remained entirely incomprehensible, stating that if a party joins a government whose ideology is entirely different than of its two larger partners, it has to be extremely flexible.
He did not, however, believe that it was a case of vengeance on IRL's part over having been previously rejected from the government, finding that such an assumption would mean that the party was petty enough to retaliate against new people over something that happened ten years ago.
Rõivas expressed hope that Estonia's transition to a new prime minister would go smoothly, and that his contacts and experiences may be of use as well, adding that it was important that the transition be a smooth one even if a change of course brought with it some turbulence.

Does it make me a bad person?(63 Posts)
That I want to FF? I have no problem with women breastfeeding, and if I thought it was best for my dc then I would but after a long chat with OH we think Formula will be best for both me and our future child? I am happy with this decision but feel like a terrible person?
Agree with poster who said don't rule breast feeding out. I totally intended to FF my dd when she arrived, even told my midwife outright before hand as I didn't want the pressure after delivery (was planing a home birth) then she was born and it so happened that it just worked for us and I LOVED it, so much so I fed her until she was 2! I never imagined that happening in a million years, i had even bought the bottles/ steriliser/ formula...you just don't know how you might feel when baby arrives. Whatever your decision, enjoy your little baby!
If you look at my other posts, BabyH I agree with you in this case. OP has her reasons and that's great. However, I have seen other people in these boards saying things about BF or FF that are untrue and those things get challenged.
On the happy mummy = happy baby thing... I agree about a lot of it. There are some times it is untrue. I would have been a bloody happy mummy leaving DD to CIO for the two years she decided to never sleep. However, I would have had an unhappy baby.
I also really object to the words Nazi and BF in the same sentence
mrsterrypratchet had the op been asking for opinions on ff v bf then your point is valid. The fact she states she has made her choice but is worries about other ppl making her feel bad for that choice means that ppl having a go or pushing her to "try it" or "wait and see how you feel at time" are unhelpful and unsolicited.
Quite frankly the only statement should have been "do what is best for you" and "don't let ppl make you feel bad"
I have medical reasons why I can't bf and tbh I wouldn't be attempting it regardless of those issues. I don't really care what other ppl think although I am concerned about the bf Nazi brigade at my local hospital because of other friends experiences. I am making a choice for me and my baby AMD quite frankly "happy mummy = happy baby" is the only consideration for any decision regardless of whether happy mummy = bf or = ff
Really grinds my gears when a mum to be posts here of her intention to FF and people come along saying oh just try it, oh are you not going to even give the colostrum?? Seen it a fair few times over recent weeks.
I get that but I also don't want to be on a forum where someone states something and everyone just says "happy mummy happy baby" and "you do what's right for you, hun" Surely people post here because they actually want honest, sometimes uncensored, opinions.
Oh also no of course FF doesn't make you a bad person. Not feeding your baby at all would be bad...the rest is just detail.
Do what's best for you and lie about it if necessary! That will save having to explain personal stuff to everyone with a strong opinion. Luckily, we live in a country where FF is safe and easy to do.
And my DH really enjoys making bottles. The sciency side of it appeals to him and he likes measuring stuff.
Really grinds my gears when a mum to be posts here of her intention to FF and people come along saying oh just try it, oh are you not going to even give the colostrum?? Seen it a fair few times over recent weeks.
Back the frig off!
OP, do what you want, it's completely up to you, who cares what randoms on the net think?
BoyMeetsWorld I salute you - could not have put it better myself.
I don't understand why you would feel like a terrible person. In my experience the people in hospital/midwives will be absolutely fine with you choosing to FF and will probably positively reinforce the idea that you do.
It is good to get both sets of opinions. But the vehemence in some of these posts is exactly what makes the bf issue a hotbed.
People often don't even stop to consider the many complicated personal issues which could be behind somebody's choice not to bf before they start preaching.
For what it's worth - however much you "can't argue with scientific fact", I also would argue that nowadays there are a ton of things we do relating to parenting which aren't the 'natural' cave-dwelling way of doing it. There are many chemically enhanced, electronic creations which have replaced the 'norm'. There are a ton of vaccinations, supplements, tests, scans and interventions from pregnancy throughout childhood. None receive quite the same ear bashing as bf'ing.
It may not be 'natural' but there's no evidence that it's detrimental. The modern woman has a choice - and sometimes when it's a choice involving very personal feelings about herself, it's one she's perfectly entitled to make.
Rant over. Good luck Beth, whatever you decide.
Sparkle - no I missed it, and for that I apologise. But no woman should be made to feel bad about a choice at such a vulnerable time.
Thank you everyone, please don't flame the more negative posters I fully expected them and its good to see another side. I really appreciate all your thoughts and kind words.
Fancydrawers - did you read my second post? I had started writing my first, left the computer for a while, came back, finished and posted without refreshing. I hadn't seen the OP's subsequent posts where she outlines her precise circumstances. I'm far, far from a perfect parent but it doesn't change the facts of the feeding heirarchy, I'm sorry to say. Try not to take scientific facts personally - they're neutral. It doesn't mean that one can't make decisions along with another set of facts (i.e. the OP's personal history) that is therefore different to one indicated solely by a single set.
OP - you do what you want and tell anyone who gives you grief to sod off - firmly.
Midori Er plenty thanks. With respect there are certain foods one should avoid whilst bfing, you can't just 'eat what you want'.... This is trial and error for each baby - some things give them shocking wind, for example. You must be careful with caffeine, and alcohol. I have, as mentioned, cut this out completely in my pregnancy. Really a small glass between feeds (1-2 units) - I personally do not want to drink any more than that, and you really shouldn't have more IMO. Nowhere does it say, and no doctor has ever said 'have several drinks and then bf' - There is stacks of info on this, and any medical professional can advise. It passes from milk to the baby - yes in very small amounts, but I can't think any alcohol at all is good for a baby, let alone a child - common sense tells me that.
And this is to do with the OP - not me!!!
OP of course it doesn't make you a bad person, but the fact you even have to ask suggests that perhaps you should try and discuss your feelings about it with your midwife. It comes across to me as you may r aren't convinced FF is best at all, but more that you won't be able to manage to BF as you mention you may be able to/want to do it with 100% privacy. If that's wrong of course, please feel free to ignore me!
Teaandflapjacks you may know your own mind, but do you know much about breastfeeding? Such as you can eat whatever you want while doing it and you can also have several drinks too, certainly as many as you'd want to have whilst caring for a baby even if you weren't breastfeeding and for the times you want to drink more than that and have someone else care for the baby, you can give expressed milk or formula until you are safe to feed again.
Startail, sparkle - why don't you both fuck off. I'm sure you're both perfect parents (not a hint of sarcasm there, nope) you are shit.
OP perhaps try and get some help with your issues, if you want to, but ultimately if you are happy with your decision then that's great - I wish you all the best with your family.
Regardless of the feeding I think you should seek some help regarding your issues with your body. Don't feel guilty about it you can't help how you feel, however this is clearly affecting your life in white a big way.
I agree you may want to try once hormones have kicked in, it may be kind of therapeutic for you as it's not a sexual thing at all it's empowering way to use your body.
Good luck.
This doesn't make you a bad person op. Fwiw i have FF all 4 of my dc, with pfb didn't even try to BF, or with dd2, but i did give it a try with dc3 & dc4. It wasn't for me, i did give dc3 & 4 the most important colostrum, but after a week my nipples were so sore, i wasn't getting any help and tbh BF wasn't for me unfortunetly.
I think it is good to make the decision whether you are BF or not beforehand as it stops the guilt if you fail, as i felt so guilty with my last two babies. I'm pregnant with dc5 and have decided already like you that FF is best for me and baby and i don't feel bad. All my dc are healthy and loved and that is all that matters.
Do as you want but in future, I wouldn't ask opinions on here, or anywhere else for that matter. It will only make you feel shit.
"And good luck with getting your DP to help with bottles. Mine was hopeless at cleaning them."
If you have an issue with your breasts it is a no-brainer. Don't beat yourself up.
FWIW I think some of the vitriol about it isn't vitriol at all. People are remarkably under-informed about breastfeeding and people want them to have all the facts before they make a 'bad' decision based on cobblers. In your case, you know it will make you feel uncomfortable so don't worry.
The only caveat to that is if you want to talk to someone about your breast issues. It is possible that breastfeeding could 'reclaim' your breasts for you if the past issues are ones that you could deal with in this way. No idea unless you talk to a
bloody specialised counsellor.
And good luck with getting your DP to help with bottles. Mine was hopeless at cleaning them.
IMVHO, you do what is best for both you and the baby.
If BFing will stress you, you'll have a stress baby. I was unable to BF, I did try really hard, but nothing came out. I was told I was a failure because I not only couldn't feed my baby, I had her by ELCS .
My DD was quite light when she was born, she got thinner and thinner, I got more and more upset. DH decided enough was enough and spoke to a doctor. He needed to get a prescription for her bottles (overseas).
It was the best moment of her life when she finally got some food. I continued to FF until she was one then she started on cows milk.
She is a happy, healthy intelligent 12 year old now.
Go with what suits you.

May 10 (Reuters) - Britain's opposition Labour Party will pledge to nationalise energy, rail and mail, The Daily Telegraph reported on Wednesday, citing a leaked copy of Labour's draft election manifesto.
Britain's Prime Minister Theresa May has called for an early national election scheduled for June 8.
Labour will fund its spending commitments though a programme of increased tax and 250 billion pounds of borrowing over the next decade, the Telegraph reported. (bit.ly/2pAtiXx)
The draft manifesto, which will be debated and finalised by party officials on Thursday, intends to hike income tax for people earning more than 80,000 pounds a year, according to the report.
The 43-page document also says Labour will ensure that 60 percent of the UK's energy comes from renewable sources by 2030, the newspaper added.
Labour's manifesto was expected to be made public next week.
The party had said that middle and low earners would not face tax hikes to fund its spending plans if it wins next month's election, with the burden falling instead on the top five percent of earners and big business.
Reuters could not confirm or deny the details in the report. (Reporting by Subrat Patnaik in Bengaluru; Editing by James Dalgleish)

EDIT - oops, this was already posted by Cile, http://www.wiihacks.com/member-submi...t-abdomen.html
A three-year-old Tennessee girl is dead after her parents told police she mistook a loaded pistol for a Wii controller.
Wilson County Sheriff Terry Ashe told the Tennessean newspaper that Cheyenne McKeehan's stepfather got the gun out Saturday night because he thought he heard dogs or a prowler on the family's property.
After checking outside, he returned to the house and placed the .380 caliber pistol on a side table in the living room.
On Sunday night, the gun had not yet been returned to its cabinet, Ashe told the newspaper. The stepfather went to bed and the girl's mother was on the computer just a few feet away when the little girl reached for the gun.
When Cheyenne pulled the pistol off the table it went off, hitting her in the stomach, Ashe said. The child was rushed to hospital, but died from her injuries.
The newspaper reported Cheyenne's mother told police her daughter could have thought the gun was a controller for their Nintendo Wii. The girl had been playing a game with a controller that had a similar shape to the gun, the newspaper reported.

This month's conversation focused on the following topics around "helping without harming:"
- Three pillars to guide us in supporting our loved one includes (1) Listen (2) Respond (3) Respect.
- Listen: understand ED are a brain disease and aren't rational; listen without the need for offering solutions; listen to what's not being said; stay way from taking things personal and becoming defensive.
- Respond: advocate for treatment; affirm your love and support; stay away from comments around body/food as indicators of getting better; cultivate conversation and community that supports their self-discovery.
- Respect: respect your loved one's journey of self-discovery, and their process of creating new beliefs and values, even if they differ from you own.

Review for Howard Street Autocare Center
Peter S. on 08/12/2013
Peter said he really appreciates how they explain everything to their customers. They do the work at a fair price and they are very honest as well. If they cannot do the work they will tell the customers right up front. He has been looking for a place of business that he can trust for a very long time.

Pain is a condition familiar to all and in no need of definition.
Pain sensation is one sensory perception experienced through our nervous system. Others are touch, vibration, proprioception (or joint position) and temperature, hot and cold. Pain is experienced by all vertebrate animals, but is not perceived by invertebrates with the exception of cephalopods – squids and octopi. Pain perception in fish and crustaceans remains controversial.
There is general agreement that pain perception increases survivability – indeed, vertebrates have much longer life spans than invertebrates. Research has shown that typical human cutaneous (skin) nerves have 83 percent Type C trauma receptors (for severe pain). Rare individuals with congenital pain insensitivity have 24 percent to 28 percent Type C receptors, while rainbow trout have 5 percent and sharks and rays 0 percent. Pain perception probably has little survival value in the aquatic environment.
Getting to the point, pain is the most common symptom or complaint for those entering emergency departments – about 50 percent of those coming through the doors. It is the single most important clue as to what injury or disease process has occurred. The quality of pain, burning, stabbing, cramping, steady, dull, sharp, etc., and the location of pain immensely shorten the long list of what can be wrong. Simply put, there is no reason to be X-raying an ankle when the pain is in the elbow.
Pain signals traverse the peripheral nerves to "connections" in the spine called ganglia, then through the spinal cord to the brain. There, the signals reach our consciousness and are interpreted – take a couple of aspirin, go to the liquor cabinet or the emergency room (or both), even call 911. The sophistication of the nervous system and all its sensors is vastly superior to anything in use for property or home alarms. However, Mother Nature is not without flaws.
We have radiating pain in which pain from a dental abscess can spread into the jaw or to the entire side of a face. Somewhat worse is referred pain, where pain from an injured spleen may be experienced as left shoulder pain. Heart attack pain may not appear in the anterior or left chest but in the neck, jaw or left arm – even just the elbow. Pneumonia low-down in a lung near the diaphragm may masquerade as an abdominal problem, even appendicitis in a child. How can this be?
Because both somatic (skin, mucous membranes) nerves and visceral (abdominal and chest organs) nerves pass through the spinal ganglia, the signals may get crossed before reaching the brain. Thus, referred pain remains a challenge for physicians. Another type of pain, not mentioned in medical school or in textbooks, is "feigned" pain.
The nurses had rolled their eyes. The story, appearance and behavior of a patient demanding narcotics for immobilizing back pain were bogus. At my request, a nurse discharged the patient. Next morning, I was confronted by administration and a complaint. I explained that I had simply denied the patient narcotics. Most fortuitously, however, the incoming doc and nurse had witnessed the patient's bending over the waiting-room drinking fountain the night before – case and complaint closed – diagnosis, feigned pain.

2013 Honda CR-V - Consumer Review

My new CRV after 10 years
By jparedes on
Vehicle2013 Honda CR-V LX 4dr SUV (2.4L 4cyl 5A)
ReviewYes, finally decided to get back into debt (after 5 of no car payments)...it was time, my 2002 CRV (which I bought new) already has 240,000. miles (that's right)...no engine or tramission overhaul has been needed....the car is still in excellent shape, so much that now it was passed to my son...
That's the main reason as to why I bought another CVR .... "RELIABILITY"..
The 2013 CVR LX has a very confortable ride, little wind noise in the highway, good visibilty, good handling.
Best FeaturesLove the the new 2013, getting 33mpg on 85/15 (85% turnpike drive and 15% city drive). IPOD plug in feature was great. ECO lights on the dashboard sides are helpful in showing if you're saving gas by the way you're driving. The car info. system lets you know the car's range based on the mpg your driving. shows the remaing running live of the oil before the next oil change....it also warms you of the parts that need to be check or replace for the next maintance check. The rear camera that comes on when you're backing up, it's excellent. Overall very nice little things that add up to the joy of driving the car.
Worst FeaturesAs a previous CRV owner, was disapointed in find out that the LX model does not comes with a front passenger's arm rest (only on the driver's side). The top cover for the spare tire, looks and feels very cheap ( it should had been of hard plastic) not cardboard.... More color choices for the seats. Remember this is only a 4 cylinder motor and passing acceleration is not that quick Just wonder the cost of replacement and labor on the new technology, like the info. system, the sensors all of these are computers or parts of it ......

Lord knows drama in any form other than an artist's internal conflict rarely makes its way onto the pages of Marquee. And any critique of that failing should be aim directly at this writer. Dramatic performances often are lost in the hundreds of emails from music promotion companies and, well, he who screams the loudest gets the most attention.
But when you call me directly, you get more attention.
Case in point, Jack Bamford and his student actors at Athens Christian School, who are kicking off the 2013 dramatic season with a performance of Agatha Christie's "The Mousetrap," sometimes known as "Three Blind Mice."
Last November marked the 60th season of "The Mousetrap," which is the longest-running play in modern theater history. And in November, the play notched its 25,000th performance at the same theater, the West End of London, where it initially opened in 1952. Geez.
The big reveal at the end of this murder mystery was long kept secret, due mainly to a compact made with audiences by the play producers not to give away the ending. Even though you can find out who-dun-it on the Internet, I still won't give it away here. (It was the garbage man in the laundry with the oyster shucker!)
The student cast includes Charlie Horton, Bryce Hockema, Pearl Oppenheimer, Rachel Whitsel, Lauren Pineo, Will Ezzell, Ian Callow and Tim Miller. Direction provided by Bamford and Kathy Dickinson.
Tickets are $5 for Thursday and Friday, but are $10 on Saturday because the price includes dinner. Dinner theater ... so good.
Call (706) 549-7586 or email firstname.lastname@example.com for tickets.

Radishes, Spring's Favorite Vegetable
Radishes were first grown thousands of years ago in ancient China, Egypt and Greece. This spicy, colorful vegetable soon conquered the world, becoming beloved in many culturesfrom Japan to France. Radishes were so highly regarded in ancient Greece that gold replicas were made of them. The Greek name for the radish genus, Raphanus, means "quickly appearing," which perfectly describes their reputation for being the first vegetable to sprout in a spring garden. Radishes were used in traditional Asian medicine for ailments such as whooping cough, cancer, gastric problems, constipation, arthritis and parasites.

A town that is the capital of carousels has the right to make it a big deal. At least from my point of view.

If there is one thing about the Star Wars prequels that fans can agree on, it's that Ewan McGregor was terrific as Obi-Wan Kenobi. It was no small task stepping into the role made famous by Sir Alec Guinness, but not only did Ewan McGregor live up to his predecessor, he also helped a whole new generation of Star Wars fans fall in love with the character.
Following the success of The Force Awakens and Rogue One, fans are clamoring for more of their favorite characters to appear in future films. When it comes to characters who we'd love see starring in an anthology film #ObiWanKenobi tops the list. However, so far, Disney/Lucasfilm has kept quiet about the possibility of seeing Master Kenobi in future films. Another pressing question also remains unanswered: if Disney makes an Obi-Wan Kenobi anthology film, would #EwanMcGregor reprise the role?
Ewan McGregor On His Return As Obi-Wan Kenobi
During a recent interview with Business Insider for his film T2: Trainspotting, Ewan McGregor was asked if he would ever reprise the role of Obi-Wan Kenobi. McGregor responded:
"Listen, I have been asked about it a lot, to the point where it looks a bit like I'm sort of touting for work, I've been very open to say I'd be happy to do it, if they want to do it."
Ewan McGregor's answer is perhaps not what Star Wars fans are hoping for, but it does leave us with hope. The most important thing is that McGregor is up for reprising the role, and it shows that he has just as much love for the character as fans do. McGregor has been championing Obi-Wan's live-action return to the Star Wars universe since The Force Awakens was announced, and really hope that this time, Disney get in touch.
Could Ewan McGregor Return To Star Wars?
Disney and Lucasfilm have the next 5-6 years of Star Wars movies & shows planned. Although we don't know what many of the projects are yet, the fact that Lucasfilm Story Group have planned so far in advance and (allegedly) haven't contacted McGregor yet suggests we might not see Obi-Wan for a while.

- Mark Hamill's Picture From His First Day Of Filming 'Star Wars: A New Hope' Is The Nostalgia You're Looking For
- Frank Oz Cryptic About His Rumored Return As Yoda In 'Star Wars: Episode VIII'
That said, if we do see a live-action Obi-Wan on our screens again, it's a safe bet that it'll be McGregor picking up the light saber. After all, he already reprised the role in Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. During Rey's flashback, McGregor provided the line: "These are your first steps". It stands to reason that if Disney contacted McGregor for something small like that, then they would definitely contact him for a much larger role.
Obi-Wan On Star Wars Rebels And His Possible Future On Film
Disney has already revitalized Obi-Wan Kenobi on Star Wars Rebels, and gave us a better look at what he has been up to on Tatooine between Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope. Star Wars Rebels showcased the final showdown between Darth Maul and Obi-Wan, and did so in such a beautiful way, that it's become a must-see for every Star Wars fan.
The snippet of Obi-Wan's life on Tatoonie as we were shown on Rebels was a very narrow time frame, but witnessing his growth as a character was riveting, and something worth exploring in an anthology film – especially if Ewan McGregor was attached. It would be great to visit that time frame in a future movie; it's hard to deny that a film starring Ewan McGregor as Kenobi as he fights to protect Luke from The Empire sounds like a promising prospect.
Master Kenobi's appearance on Rebels has made fans miss him that much more, and really showcased why he is beloved character in the Star Wars universe. It's fair to say that the love for Obi Wan transfers over to Ewan McGregor as well, since he brought the character to life for an entire generation of Star Wars fans. Hopefully we will see McGregor back as Master Kenobi one day, but until then, you can catch Ewan McGregor in T2: Trainspotting at a theater near you.
Do you want Ewan McGregor to reprise the role of Obi Wan Kenobi?

Don't listen to any of the naysayers, The Book of Mormon is true. Mark Twain and other critics have no idea what they're talking about. Read it for yourself, it's another Testament of Jesus Christ that goes right along with the Bible! The Book of Mormon supports and verifies the Bible. The truth has been restored and it's free for everyone to read! Do yourself a favor and start reading it now. You'll be glad you did!
PS The Book of Mormon contains an account of the Native Americans before Christopher Columbus came and before we had the tribes we know about today. It describes their experiences with Jesus Christ and contains a history of the people - their family lines, their divisions, their travels, their wars and more.

I'm writing a linked series of posts on BlogHer.com about Cooking With Fresh Herbs, and so far we've drooled over recipes using cilantro, tarragon, and parsley. Now Susan from The Lil' Mommy That Could has requested ideas for mint, which is something I love to cook with. If your only inspiration for mint is using it for summer drinks, read on!
If you'd like to start growing your own herbs, Mint is one of the easiest herbs to grow. It grows quickly, and needs minimal sun, water, or fertilizer compared to most other herbs. In fact, mint almost grows too well; anyone who knows about growing mint will remind you that the plant quickly becomes invasive, and needs to be contained. In my own garden, I use a plastic barrier pounded into the ground to keep the mint from spreading, and I still have to be consistent about weeding it. If you have a flower bed that's bordered by sidewalks, that's a perfect spot for mint, or it can easily be grown in pots outside. The Kitchn also suggests growing mint indoors, which can work if you have a window that gets sun at least part of the day.
There are many types of mint, but the most common are spearmint and peppermint. Wikipedia doesn't distinguish between the types of mint when it talks about culinary uses or mint, although some sources say spearmint is used more often for cooking. Peppermint is often used in tea, ice cream, candy, gum and toothpaste. Spearmint is probably the type most commonly found in gardens, although quite honestly I couldn't tell you for sure which type I've been growing for years.
Mint is often used raw, and the leaves are usually chopped or pounded to release the oil which produces the minty flavor. It may be an herb you'll want to use in small amounts at first, but for mint fans like myself, a dish can hardly have too much mint. Mint is a common ingredient in European, Middle Eastern, or African foods, and is also used in drinks, cocktails, and desserts. Now here are so great ideas to get you started cooking with mint. And if you have a favorite recipe that uses fresh mint, please share the link or recipe in the comments.

EL CERRITO — The city will spend $20,000 to educate business owners about its new minimum wage law, but is holding back temporarily on enacting enhanced sick leave benefits for workers.
The outlay will cover the cost of preparing and distributing materials outlining the responsibilities of businesses in complying with new city minimum wage requirements enacted in November.
The new law raises the minimum wage paid by employers to $11.60 per hour beginning July 1 followed by increases to $12.25 on Jan. 1, 2017 and $13.60 on Jan. 1, 2018 before rising to $15 on Jan. 1, 2019.
Further increases will be made at the beginning of each succeeding year based on changes in the Consumer Price Index.
The state minimum wage increased to $10 an hour on Jan. 1, which is in effect in El Cerrito until the city-enacted increase takes effect.
The City Council also voted unanimously Feb. 16 to delay a proposed increase in mandatory sick leave pending the results of a pair of proposed state ballot measures sponsored by the Service Employees International Union.
One of the measures would double the amount of mandatory annual sick leave per year from the 24 hours in a new state law that took effect July 1 to 48 hours annually.
The state law covers employees who have worked for the same employer for at least 30 days during the year.
San Francisco, Oakland, and Emeryville have local sick leave regulations that went into effect before the state law that provide greater benefits than the state.
As with minimum wage law, advocates of small businesses received some backing for finding a way to limit local sick leave requirements to large businesses, at least for a time.
The SEIU state council defines a large business as one with more than 26 employees.
"Bigger businesses have the opportunity to pay for more sick leave," said former City Council candidate Nick Arzio. "We need to do more research for small businesses."
Resident Tom Panas agreed that the council should "discuss the impact" of enhanced sick leave requirements on owners of smaller businesses, which can include locally owned restaurants and "mom and pop" retail stores.
The El Cerrito minimum wage law and mandatory sick leave proposals are based on guidelines developed by Ensuring Opportunity, which describes itself as "The Campaign to Cut Poverty in Contra Costa County."
According to a census of wages and employment, just under 25 percent of jobs within the city are in retail, with strong representation in government and health care.
Employers in all categories paid out nearly $190 million in wages to more than 5,000 workers in the city during 2014.

Long queues build up at a German filling station after a computer error led to petrol and diesel being virtually given away.
15th January 2008
Berlin (dpa) - Instead of increasing the price by 3 cents a litre, the computer led to the fuels being sold at 3 cents a litre, compared with around 1.40 euros (2.10 dollars) a litre at current levels for both fuels.
"Human error was not to blame," said Erwin Bald, owner of the filling station in the western town of Iserlohn.
"The computer simply misunderstood the instructions keyed in."
The error, which occurred late on Friday evening, is estimated to have cost around 10,000 euros.
News of the bonanza spread quickly, causing some motorists to leave their beds to take advantage of the offer.
The filling station was closed with the assistance of the local police after more than five hours.

Parris hearing delayed
Filing issues related to additional grounds for appeal by lawyers for Leroy Parris have forced a delay in the hearing of an application brought by the former CLICO executive chairman.
Parris wants the High Court to reverse an earlier ruling by another judge forcing the embattled former insurance executive to repay the insurance company $3.3 million.
Legal sources had anticipated a ruling today, however the hearing never got off the ground.
Lawyers for both sides spent 90 minutes behind closed doors with the judge and when they emerged Ramon Alleyne, the attorney for the CLICO judicial manager, told reporters both sides were to correct filing issues and return for the trial next Wednesday afternoon.
"The court sought some housekeeping. The defendant had raised some additional grounds on which they want to bring their application to strike out the default judgment.
"The court pointed out that they [the additional grounds] weren't originally filed and if you want to rely on it you need to put a proper full document before them.
As such, that document is to be filed by Monday of next week and any additional submissions within that same week, and then we are set for trial the week after.
The definite date is Wednesday, 9th [March], the afternoon of the 9th," Alleyne revealed.
Parris declined comment, while Vernon Smith, QC, the attorney for Parris' company Branlee Consulting Services, was terse.
"I done wid dat. Things are a bit too confidential for me to have any word with anyone," he said.
Queens Counsel Hal Gallop is representing Parris.
The lawsuit was filed by CLICO Judicial Manager Deloitte Consulting, which had asked for the refund, alleging that the money was obtained from CLICO in breach of trust and fiduciary duty.
The money was channelled to Parris through Thompson and Associates, the law firm of late Prime Minister David Thompson.
Meanwhile, the High Court is yet rule on a separate application brought by the former CLICO boss' lawyers who are seeking to have lifted, a court-ordered freeze on a $4.5 million bank account.
In January 2015, a High Court froze the assets of the former CLICO chief and Branlee Consulting Services Inc in an ex parte hearing filed by the judicial manager.
3 Responses to Parris hearing delayed
"I done wid dat. Things are a bit too confidential for me to have any word with anyone," he said.
In saying so what he's not saying is, that the court is off limits and not following judicial process. The court has a conflict of interest and the hearing shouldn't have been closed. In doing so they have helped the defendant. Arbitration hearing should have taken place long ago. Allowing each party to submit evidence and arguments within a date. After that date has passed no other evidence or arguments should be allowed.. What's happening here is the court/judge is incompetent or he's throwing the case = putting the taxpayers on the hook for millions.
The court has ruled for mediation and arbitration and can only be changed if to preserve a fair and balanced trial. If something went wrong the judge should have been transparent. If the judge make a mistake, the two parties aren't going to say anything, but instead use it for compensation whoever lost the case.
As far as I can see the taxpayers are the ones who will pay..
You are so correct in your assessment. The entire thing is staged for a favourable outcome for Parris. The judicial process in Barbados is all scratched ya back pay ma back.

Christopher McAvoy, West Hempstead High School
Christopher McAvoy has a passion for research that's certainly caught his community's attention.
He has extensively investigated West Hempstead's history -- ranging from old buildings to influential people -- after noticing a lack of in-depth information at the West Hempstead Historical Society.
His findings have been shared with local residents in occasional displays and presentations at the West Hempstead Public Library. His research also led McAvoy to create a photo archive for the historical society on Facebook and won a New York State Archives Certificate of Merit from the Department of Education in 2011.
"My mom and I went to some historical societies around Long Island and noticed there wasn't a very sophisticated one for my hometown -- so I took it upon myself to do some research," said McAvoy, 18. Of the research's importance, he said: "How can we know what to do in the future if we don't know about the past?"
McAvoy's other research included developing designs for wind turbine blades in an effort to create a more affordable form of sustainable clean energy. That project won McAvoy -- who was captain of the volleyball team and a member of the Tri-M Music and National Art honor societies -- a gold medal in the engineering category at the International Sustainable World (Engineering, Energy & Environment) Project Olympiad, also known as I-SWEEEP, and awards at the Long Island Science Congress, New York State Science Congress and Long Island Science and Engineering Fair.
"His strong work ethic, true integrity and motivation, coupled with his respect for human dignity, will light his path to success," said his guidance counselor, Donna Seeberger.
HIGHER ED: McAvoy will study engineering physics at Fordham University.
AT COLLEGE, I'M MOST LOOKING FORWARD TO: "Gaining real-life experience in scientific research. I'm really excited to start doing work that can contribute more to society."
What makes you extraordinary
"Trying to excel at all those different things [science research, historical research, a sport, my commitment to performing music, schoolwork] at once is what I thrive on."

Entering the U.S. (F & J Students)
You have your visa in your passport, your bags are packed and you're ready to go! Learn about documents needed to enter the U.S. for the first time as a Columbia student. For travel during your time at Columbia, visit our Documents Needed to Travel page.
How to Enter the U.S.
Organize your Documents
Have these documents in your hand (and not packed in a suitcase) for the officer to review:
- ✓
- Valid Passport
- ✓
- Valid Visa (Canadians are exempt from visa requirement)
- ✓
- ✓
- SEVIS fee receipt
- ✓
- Financial documents (used for your I-20 application)
The earliest date you may enter the U.S. is 30 days before the program start date on your I-20.
- ✓
- Valid Passport
- ✓
- Valid Visa (Canadians are exempt from visa requirement)
- ✓
- ✓
- SEVIS fee receipt
- ✓
- Financial documents (used for your DS-2019 application)
The earliest date you may enter the U.S. is 30 days before the program start date in item 3 on your DS-2019.
Enter through a U.S. Port of Entry
CBP (Customs and Border Protection) is part of the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) and is the government agency that controls admission to the United States. Your visa and other immigration documents are evidence of your eligibility to apply for admission in a particular visa status at a U.S. Port of Entry. The CBP officer makes the final decision on your admission to the U.S. in a particular status and determines how long you may stay based on your documents.
1. Get in line
There will be two lines for Customs and Immigration—one for U.S. citizens and Permanent Residents and the other for international visitors.
2. Meet the CBP Officer
The officer will review your documents and ask you a few questions about the purpose of your travel to the U.S..
If all is in order, the officer will admit you to the U.S. and will stamp your passport with:
- date and place of arrival
- immigration status
- expiration of your your stay in status
3. Check carefully that the stamp is correct for your status
Stamp should be for F-1 or J-1 for "D/S" which reflects Duration of Status (until the end of the program on the I-20 or DS-2019 plus a grace period)
CBP also creates an electronic record of your arrival (I-94 Arrival/Departure Record). Check it a day or two later to make sure it is correct.
4. Gather your things
Make sure you have all your papers and hand luggage with you before you leave the inspection area.
Pick up your luggage at the designated carousel for your flight and exit the airport passing through Customs.
Get to your destination in NYC
- Use only an official yellow or green cab from the taxi line with a dispatcher outside arrivals.
- Do not accept offers of rides from anyone else! They are unregulated and have been known to overcharge new arrivals. The dispatcher will give you a paper that identifies the taxi you're riding in and the rates.
- You can pay with credit card or cash. It is customary to tip 10 - 20% on top of the fare. In addition, you will be charged for the toll of the bridge or tunnel used to enter Manhattan.

The White House Correspondents' Dinner has always been an occasion where the President of the United States can poke fun at himself, the press and Washington. The POTUS then usually endures some good ribbing from that night's comedic headliner. This year, President Obama had a little more fun than usual.
With a nice assist from none other than Steven Spielberg, President Obama starred as Daniel Day-Lewis playing Obama in Spielberg's latest epic, "Obama." As the "Lincoln" director and producer notes, Obama's an incumbent. Why should he wait to do his biopic until after he's out of office? It may not have the production vales of the "House of Cards" spoof which screened earlier in the evening, but the President does an excellent job mocking his well known talking points, facial and hand gestures. It even has a cameo by Tracy Morgan playing…well, that would be spoiling.
Check out the video, courtesy of the White House's official YouTube site, below.

Grindr killing: Teen jailed for murder of George Osborne adviser he met on gay site
A TEENAGER has been jailed for at least 16 years for the murder of a high-ranking civil servant who he met via the gay dating app Grindr.
Ben Bamford, right, was found guilty of killing Paul Jefferies, left
Ben Bamford, then 17, used three knives to inflict more than 40 injuries during a "sustained attack" on senior HM Revenue and Customs official Paul Jefferies, 52, including slashing his throat.
Mr Jefferies, who reportedly advised ex-chancellor George Osborne's Treasury team, was found naked with a tea towel over his head on his blood-covered kitchen floor in Coggins Mill Lane, Mayfield, East Sussex.
A two-week trial at Lewes Crown Court heard how Bamford had sought to rob Mr Jefferies on February 23 after building up drugs debts of about £400.
Bamford was 17 at the time of the murder
Bamford, now 18, denied murder, claiming he was protecting himself from Mr Jefferies who had "come on to him" but jurors convicted him on Tuesday after deliberating for three hours.
Bamford met Mr Jefferies via Grindr two years before the killing when he was 15 and resumed contact in December 2015 following a break.
By the time they met again Bamford was desperate for money to settle drugs debts and was being pressured by a dealer called Glen.
The victim had over 40 wounds on him from three different knives as well as a slash to the throat
Text exchanges between Bamford and Glen were read in court. One, which was sent on the day of the killing, read: "I'm not happy. On my boy's life, I will see you today."
In another text exchange, Glen accused Bamford of "treating me like a mug".
Bamford replied: "I will get it to you. Don't worry."
After leaving Mr Jefferies for dead on the kitchen floor at his Grade II-listed cottage, Bamford took his Audi TT car and picked up a friend en route to Eastbourne District General Hospital.
Jurors were shown a selfie picture of Bamford flicking his middle finger while lying on his hospital bed after he was admitted, having claimed he had self-harmed so the police would be not called.
Mr Justice Spencer told Bamford: "In total you inflicted in excess of 40 knife wounds to the head and body of Paul Jefferies with at least three knives.
"They included stab wounds to his face, close to the right eye and to his forehead where the knife scored the skull."
The victim was found on his kitchen floor with a tea towel over his head
He added: "The overall attack must have lasted several minutes, during which time he was conscious and mobile.
"You must have realised by the end that he was fatally injured. You placed a tea towel over his head and shoulder as he lay dying on the floor, probably because you could not bear to look at what you had done."
The judge said Bamford's account of what happened only revealed "a fraction of the truth".
He went on: "The reality is that you must have stabbed him many times in the bedroom, in an outburst of extreme violence, as the photographs clearly demonstrate.
"Precisely what triggered that outburst we shall never know unless and until you choose to disclose it. It may have been to do with sex. It may have been to do with money."
Mr Justice Spencer said it was in the kitchen where "the final merciless carnage took place", adding that Mr Jefferies said and did nothing to "excuse or explain" the killing.
Prosecutor Jeremy Carter-Manning QC said that as a young man, Mr Jefferies abandoned a plan to pursue a career in medicine and joined HMRC in a "pretty basic" role.
He added that Mr Jefferies' abilities were recognised and he worked his way up to enjoy an "impressive" career as a civil servant.
No victim impact statement was prepared for the sentencing hearing as, since his early 20s, the "shy and private" Mr Jefferies had been estranged from his family who refused to accept his homosexuality, a rift which had a "profound" impact on him, the court heard.
Bamford's defence counsel Alan Kent QC said that on the night of the murder, "something must have happened to cause this eruption of violence".
In mitigation, Mr Kent said: "This is not an evil young man in any way. This was unplanned and spontaneous.
"No weapon was taken by him to the cottage that night. This demonstrates that this was not a planned killing."
Bamford, the middle of three brothers, came from a "loving and stable family", Mr Kent went on.
In front of Bamford's parents, Richard and Annmarie, who sat side-by-side in the public gallery, Mr Kent added: "It's a tragedy for them that he has been convicted of murder."

Sat, 31 March 2012
As March closes, we are pleased -- and perhaps a bit giddy -- to present our review of The Crooked World by Steve Lyons (author of Conundrum, which we talked about back in Episode 6). Before we begin to tell you exactly why we both want to have a common law marriage with Mr. Lyons, perhaps you should first read the back cover:
The people of the Crooked World lead an idyllic existence.
Take Streaky Bacon, for example. This jovial farmer wants nothing more from life than a huge blunderbuss, with which he can blast away at his crop-stealing nemesis. And then there's Angel Falls, a racing driver with a string of victories to her name. Sure, her trusted guardian might occasionally put on a mask and menace her for her prize money, but that's just life, right? And for Jasper the cat, nothing could be more pleasant than a nice, long nap in his kitchen — so long as that darn mouse doesn't jam his tail into the plug socket again.
But somebody is about to shatter all those lives. Somebody is about to change everything — and it's possible that no one on the Crooked World will ever be happy again.
The Doctor's TARDIS is about to arrive. And when it does... That's all folks!

It seems like Alia has decided to slay us with her recent hot blue look. We spotted Alia in a blue lace jumpsuit for an event and boy, the lady has given us major style goals.
Let's start with the jumpsuit's back first. The jumpsuit has a back cut out. What we like about this catchy cutout is, that it ends near Alia's waist. The front of the jumpsuit is simple... a crew neck half sleeve top tailored with tapered pants.

The highlighting factor of this jumpsuit is the lace print after the gorgeous back cutout. The piece is a creation by Cynthia Rowley.
She added colourful pumps to this splendid look. Great choice, stylist Ami. Alia left her hair open and added pink lipstick to amp up the look. Do you dig this look?

Those who wish to change political dialogue forever and enter our community take a pledge to uphold the principles of curious and thoughtful dialogue, finding shared values, and seeking mutual understanding.
The Considerates' Pledge
To accomplish our mission as a community, I pledge to always strive for the following with my friends and my fellow Considerates:
I will be curious about politics, entering all dialogue with an intent to first learn from others.
I will seek out dialogue with those that do not agree with me, and find shared values with them. I recognize that the perspectives of others have something to teach me and I will be grateful that they are shared with me.
I will respect at all times those that are taking the time to engage me, and never engage in personal attacks. I will not tolerate disrespect of others from my fellow Considerates.
I will have the humility to acknowledge that my opinions and understandings may not represent absolute truth, and seek awareness of my assumptions, biases, and feelings.
I will have the courage to change my views as I learn, and praise others for doing similarly.
I will assume that others are intelligent, well-intentioned, and have considered their positions. I will not dismiss them as foolish, unintelligent, or bad. I will not make generalizations based on others' identity and will not presume to know their positions on ideas other than what they have stated.
I will state my positions using data and will respect the Ten Commandments of Rational Debate.
I will make political dialogue and debate engaging and productive for myself and others. I recognize with humor that at times I and others may descend into rants to share their feelings.
I will have the courage to compassionately help other Considerates to improve their ability to promote these principles and their Pledge. I will gratefully embrace feedback from my fellow Considerates on improving mine.
I will share what I have learned with my friends and welcome them into the Considerates community.
Take the Pledge!
Tell the world you're a Considerate by taking the pledge, here.
