The carabineer in this kind of fall protection lanyard can be wrapped around a support system and locked back on to the lanyard. There are both single leg and dual leg options available for tie back safety lanyard.

Mid-Day Prayer
Led by Fr. Michael Thorne Jarrett
Psalm 1
Psalm 27
Psalm 28
|O God, make speed to save us.
|O Lord, make haste to help us.
|Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
Psalm 1
Blessed is the man
who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, *
nor stand in the way of sinners,
nor sit in the seat of scoffers.
But his delight is in the law of the LORD, *
and on his law he meditates day and night.
He is like a tree planted by streams of water,
bearing fruit in due season
and whose leaf does not wither. *
In all that he does, he prospers.
The wicked are not so; *
but they are like chaff that the wind drives away.
Therefore the wicked will not stand in the judgment, *
nor the sinner in the assembly of the righteous.
For the LORD knows the way of the righteous, *
but the way of the wicked will perish.Composite
Psalm 27
The LORD is my light and my salvation; *
whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the stronghold of my life; *
of whom shall I be afraid?
When evildoers advance against me
to eat up my flesh,
my adversaries and my foes, *
it is they who stumble and fall.
Though an army encamp against me, *
my heart shall not fear;
Though war should arise against me, *
even then I will be confident.
One thing I have asked of the LORD, *
that will I seek after:
That I may dwell in the house of the LORD
all the days of my life, *
to behold the beauty of the LORD
and to seek him in his temple.
For in the day of trouble he will hide me in his shelter; *
he will conceal me in the cover of his tent;
he will set me high upon a rock.
And now my head shall be lifted up *
above my enemies all around me,
And I will offer in his tent sacrifices of shouts of joy; *
I will sing and make music to the LORD.
Hear my voice, O LORD, when I cry aloud; *
have mercy on me and answer me!
You have said, "Seek my face." *
My heart says to you,
"Your face, LORD, I will seek."
Hide not your face from me,
nor turn your servant away in anger. *
You have been my help;
do not abandon me nor forsake me
O God of my salvation!
Though my father and my mother forsake me, *
the LORD will take me in.
Teach me your way, O LORD, *
and lead me on a level path
because of my enemies.
Deliver me not into the will of my adversaries; *
for false witnesses have risen against me;
they breathe out violence.
I believe that I shall see the goodness of the LORD *
in the land of the living!
Wait for the LORD; *
be strong and let your heart take courage;Composite
wait for the LORD!
Psalm 28
28 To you, O LORD, I call;
|Glory to the Father, and to the Son, and to the Holy Spirit: as it was in the beginning, is now, and ever shall be, world without end. Amen.
The LessonsThe Lessons for Friday
|Is not this the fast that I choose: to loose the bonds of wickedness, to undo the heavy burdens, to let the oppressed go free, and to break every yoke? Is it not to share your bread with the hungry, and bring the homeless poor into your house; when you see the naked, to cover him, and not to hide yourself from your own flesh? Then your light shall break forth like the dawn, and your healing shall spring up speedily; your righteousness shall go before you, and the glory of the Lord shall be your rear guard. Then you shall call, and the Lord will answer; you shall cry, and he will say, "Here I am."
Isaiah 58:6-9a
|For by grace you have been saved through faith. And this is not your own doing; it is the gift of God, not a result of works, so that no one may boast. For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand, that we should walk in them.
Ephesians 2:8-10 ESV
|Behold what manner of love the Father has bestowed upon us, that we should be called children of God, and such we are! For this reason the world does not know us, because it did not know him. Beloved, we are God's children now; and what we will be has not yet been revealed, but we know that when he is revealed, we shall be like him, for we shall see him as he is.
1 John 3:1-2
Please pause the service if you would like more time.
|Lord, have mercy
|Christ, have mercy
|Lord, have mercy
|Our Father, who art in heaven,
hallowed be thy Name,
thy kingdom come, thy will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
Give us this day our daily bread.
And forgive us our trespasses,
as we forgive those who trespass against us.
And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil.
For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory,
for ever and ever. Amen.
|Lord, hear our prayer
|And let our cry come to you.
|Heavenly Father, send your Holy Spirit into our hearts, to direct and rule us according to your will, to comfort us in all our afflictions, to defend us from all error, and to lead us into all truth; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen.
|Let us bless the Lord.
|Thanks be to God.
|The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the fellowship of the Holy Spirit, be with us all evermore. Amen.

In the Year of the Pheonix post, we learned more about the Ranked mode overhaul in Hearthstone and Blizzard has now put together a general matchmaking FAQ which hopefully helps answer the most common questions.
Rank Mode Changes
The existing ladder in Ranked Mode has been replaced with a new league system. The system has five leagues each made up of 10 ranks. You will start each season at Bronze 10 and slowly make your way to Bronze 1 before graduating to the Silver League and above. Each league also has rank floors at rank 10 and rank 5 where you won't go down in ranks when losing matches. New players will have their own league that runs from ranks 40-1.
Stars & Bonuses
You need to gain 3 starts to be promoted from Gold 10 to Gold 9 for example. You will gain one star for each match you win and lose one for a loss. Based on your performance in the previous season, you will be rewarded with a star bonus which acts as a multiplier on the starts you get from each win.
Ranked Rewards
They've also reworked rewards that you earn at the end of each season or Ranked Play. Reward chest can now contain card packs from the latest expansions, Rare, and even Epic cards based on the rank you achieve. There are also brand new first-time rewards to help new players.
You can find more details here and check out the FAQ below for more information.
Blizzard (Source)
Hey everyone! We put together a general matchmaking FAQ here for our new ranked system to help answer questions you may have.
For general description of this new system, please refer to our Year of the Phoenix blog.
If you want to learn some basic concepts of matchmaking, here is our previous blog about matchmaking in Battlegrounds.
Q: How does matchmaking work for each season?
A: There are two matchmaking pools: matchmaking by rating (aka. MMR) and by rank.
When your star bonus multiplier is bigger than 1, or you are in Legend rank, you are (generally) in the first matchmaking pool; when your star bonus drops to 1, you are in the second pool.
Q: Why are there two matchmaking pools?
A: Since each player starts at the bottom of the ladder at start, we want fair matches for everyone (aka. win-rate close to 50%). At that time, your progression on ladder is protected by your star bonus, thus your net expected gain will be positive through the ladder. Once other players run out of star bonuses, matching by rank will allow for good players, or players who want to push themselves a bit, to be able to progress to a higher rank.
In short, having two matchmaking pools helps players progress in the ladder without having to grind as much, while still making most matches fair.
Q: If I "tank" my MMR at certain rank floor, will I be matched with easier opponents next season because you are matchmaking by MMR at the start?
A: No, in general you won't. At the start of the season we will recover your MMR to certain threshold if it is dropped below that value, which is based on what your rank is in the previous season. Therefore, there would be no benefits to intentionally tank your MMR.
Q: How many stars bonuses do I get at the start of the season?
A: It depends on your current MMR and the rank you reached from your previous season, whichever gives a higher value. Generally, the minimal initial star bonuses you get for each rank floor you reached are:
Best Rank Minimal Initial Star Bonuses Bronze 10 2 Bronze 5 2 Silver 10 2 Silver 5 3 Gold 10 4 Gold 5 5 Platinum 10 6 Platinum 5 7 Diamond 10 8 Diamond 5 9 Legend 10 As you can see, every player starts with at least two stars bonuses.
Q: Do you reset MMR each season?
A: No, we do not.
Q: Will the value of my previous season's MMR be exactly same as the new season?
A: Technically no, although the change will be very small and the "value order" will be kept (Player A whose MMR is larger than player B in the last season will still be ordered as such). Mathematically, a re-normalization process takes place at the start of each season to keep the distribution in a nice bell-shaped curve.
Q: If I missed one season, will I lose my star bonuses when I return?
A: No, you won't.
Q: If I missed multiple seasons, will I lose star bonuses when I return?
A: Based on how long you are absent, there will be some small decay applied to your MMR. Therefore, you may (or may not) lose some star bonuses.
Q: Where do the win steak bonuses end?
A: Diamond 5.

Update 17.0 came with a few bugs that need fixing, so Blizzard outlined a hotfix schedule for the next two weeks.
Blizzard (Source)
We are currently in the process of putting out a few hotfixes for issues introduced after the 17.0 update. Please note that these fixes take place on the server side, so you should not need to download anything if you've updated to 17.0.
We've identified and fixed an issue that could cause the game to fail to offer some eligible players the Returning Player Experience. Affected players should now receive the appropriate quest line when logging into Hearthstone. Whizbang the Wonderful will no longer offer decks with cards that have moved to the Hall of Fame. Kingsbane will now correctly be destroyed and shuffled into your deck when it reaches 0 durability. Living Roots, when disenchanted, now properly gives the amount of dust of a common instead of an epic. However, its gem rarity will not be updated until Monday (3/30). Invoke cards will now no longer appear from cards that generate other cards. Clever Disguise will now correctly function as intended when played. This coming Monday (3/30), we're planning to deploy a data-only patch that addresses a couple more issues:
Darkness Awaits will no longer be incorrectly marked as collectible in the Collection. Basic cards will no longer be incorrectly earned from Arena rewards. Living Root's gem rarity will be corrected from Epic to Common. There are several known issues that will self-resolve on 4/7 when the Demon Hunter and Ashes of Outland unlock:
Felfin Navigator will correctly appear in the Battlegrounds minion pool. The Battlegrounds Perks button will correctly function as intended when clicked. The new Priest cards will correctly appear in the Arena card pool. Demon Hunter Initiate cards will no longer be granted by completing Galakrond's Awakening Chapters. Hallucination and Blink Fox will work correctly when played against Demon Hunter in Practice Mode. Curious Glimmerroot will no longer cause client crashes when played against Demon Hunter in Practice Mode. The Search Bar in the Collection will correctly function as intended, and will no longer jump to the top of the screen. Additionally, there are a few Boomsday Project Puzzles that can no longer be completed now because of card changes introduced in 17.0. We're planning to deploy a fix for Boomsday Project Puzzles on April 9.
We are investigating several other reports and will keep you posted as we know more. We'd like to thank everyone for their patience while we get some of these bugs squashed!

Update 17.0 came with free decks for returning players. Blizzard defines a returning player as one who had not logged into the game for four months as of March 17, meaning if you logged into Hearthstone between November 18, 2019 and now, you don't qualify as a returning player and won't receive the Class Deck.
Blizzard (Source)
As our new Returning Player Experience went live along with the 17.0 update, we've found a few places where we think we can clarify the process and what you can expect.
To expand upon the eligible time period, we've defined a returning player as one who had not logged into Hearthstone for four months as of March 17th, so your last login to Hearthstone needed to be before 11/18/2019 to qualify. If you logged in on or between 11/18/2019 to 3/17/2020, you would not qualify as a returning player and receive the Class Deck.
If you're a returning player who has not logged in since before 11/18/2019, to earn your free deck
Log into Hearthstone and be presented with a new Legendary Quest line, which is made up of three total quests. In the first quest, you will face three bosses made specifically for the quest line. In the final two quests, you will play 30 cards then deal 100 damage to an enemy hero. Upon completing the third and final quest, you will be able to select your free Class Deck once you return to the main menu. If you're a new player and have not completed the new player ranks,
Log into Hearthstone and complete the tutorial and the Starter Quest line You will need to graduate from the New Player Ranks (Ranks 50-26) Upon completing these quests, you will be able to select your free Class Deck once you return to the main menu. If you have played Hearthstone before, but either did not complete the tutorial or the New Player Ranks, you will need to do both before receiving the free Class Deck. Note that there's also a chance you'll see the Returning Player quests and need to complete those as well.
As a final note, it is possible that you may not see the deck in your deck list if you did not have an open deck slot when you chose your free Class Deck. If this happens, don't worry! You will still receive all of the cards from that deck. If you would like to delete one of your existing decks, you can then navigate to this page and use our deck list. From here, copy the deck code, and you can then add the deck to your deck list from within Hearthstone.
We hope this helps to clarify the experience for everyone! In addition, we are going to keep investigating any potential issues with the returning player decks, and we will provide updates as we learn anything new.
EDIT 1: Quick update: the team has indeed identified an issue that we know is affecting some players. We're currently investigating the steps needed to fix it. I may not have an update again until tomorrow, but I'll let everyone know what to expect as soon as I know more.

Sorry I didn't try this before writing the last blog post on FamilySearch Books unavailable. When I got home from teaching genealogy classes, I had comments that led me to believe that the issue was a browser error. After trying FireFox and Safari, both of them work fine. I cannot run Internet Explorer on my iMac so I couldn't try that, but Google's Chrome definitely does not work. I often have to remind myself, when I have a Web malfunction, to try a different browser. Thanks for the comments and problem solved, I merely have to switch from Chrome to FireFox. This is the second major problem I have had with Chrome this week already and the week is just starting. The other problem involved losing sound in YouTube.com. That turned out to be a conflict with an Adobe add-on.
If you have the problem of very slow or non-existent downloads from FamilySearch.org Books, try a different browser.

Update on FamilySearch's Books Unavailable
2 comments:
Isn't it amazing? This one catches me every time. And I had to switch to Google Chrome to avoid problems on other browsers...grrrr. I didn't know about the sound on You Tube...that might explain a few things to me...sigh...it's not so much that I lost sound...but there was a delay. Thanks for the heads up.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the heads up on the loss of sound on You Tube! I have a relatively new MacBook Pro and sometimes the sound works and sometimes it doesn't! Glad to know it's not the computer! I'm a Chrome user but have Firefox loaded and ready now that I know. Thanks!ReplyDelete

The following steps can help reduce your risk of developing periodontal disease:
- Follow good dental self-care practices.
- Get regular professional dental care.
- Stop smoking.
- Eat nutritiously.
Brush your teeth twice daily:
- Use an end-rounded, soft-bristled toothbrush.
- If you have trouble managing with a manual toothbrush, consider using an electric toothbrush.
- Use a toothpaste containing fluoride.
- Hold your brush at a 45° angle with the bristles toward the gum.
- Brush every tooth surface and along the gum line, using small, circular motions.
- Clean between your teeth once each day, using either floss or another cleaning aid prescribed by your dentist.
- Ask your dentist if you would benefit from a fluoride mouth rinse.
You should see your dentist every 6 months for a careful cleaning and for a thorough dental checkup. If you've already been diagnosed with periodontal disease, you should schedule a cleaning every 3 months.
Smoking is a major risk factor for the development of periodontal disease. Talk to your doctor about programs and aids to help you stop smoking.
A nutritious diet can help you fight all forms of infection. It may also help you prevent foods that can be damaging or irritating to your teeth and gums. Ask your doctor whether you would benefit from working with a nutritionist.

Extra! Extra! Expand Your Cultural Nerves with Tickets to Randy Newman!
I'll be honest: I don't know much about Randy Newman. I've seen Toy Story and loved The Full Monty, but maybe it's because I'm not originally from Los Angeles (and thus never heard "I Love L.A." over the loudspeakers at Dodgers games), but I was never really exposed to him as a personality, let alone a singer/songwriter. And I feel left out. I feel as though my body is missing an integral cultural nerve-ending (I scoffed at my friend who, until recently, hadn't heard Prince's "Kiss").
Now I have my chance though, and so do you (whether or not you're a Newman newbie). And in fact, it may be our last chance. At the Mark Taper Forum in Downtown, the world-premiere musical Randy Neman's Harps and Angels has enjoyed a successful one-month long run, which ends this Wednesday, December 22nd, and Fine Arts LA has two tickets to give away to this final performance. Directed by Tony winner Jerry Zaks of Guys and Dolls fame, and starring such names as Ryder Bach, Storm Lange, Adriane Lenox, Michael McKean, Katey Sagal, and Matthew Saldivar, the show features all the Newman hits ("Political Science," "I Think It's Gonna Rain Today," "You Can Leave Your Hat On," and "I Love L.A."), and maybe even some you don't know.
Simply enter your first name, last name, and e-mail address into the form below, and you will be entered into the running to receive two free tickets to Randy Neman's Harps and Angels on December 22nd at 8 PM. And as always, though especially in the spirit of the holiday season, you will automatically be eligible to win any or all of our next three ticket giveaways. So happy holidays, and enjoy your cultural nerves—whatever those may be.

Battery was my entry to LD9. The theme was "Build the level you play". Initially, the open voting hinted at a clear winner of the theme "battery", for which Hamumu found the best explanation: Battery is a place where bats are hatched. Now, when I woke up the morning of the LD, first thing was I checked the theme, and it mysteriously had shifted. So, I decided to make an RTS where you start with nothing, then have to build up the battery you play.
The title screen.
An in-game shot. Basically, you can order bats to dig (build the level you play), and in the new cave room build different structures for hatching worker and soldier bats and providing food to them. At fixed intervals, a wave of most horrific enemies will attack the battery – so you better have enough soldiers by then.

While the spotted owl and grey wolf may be the poster children for the environment, the honeybee has been nudging its way in as the new darling.
And with good reason; honeybee populations are dwindling at an alarming rate, and nobody knows exactly why. The total number of managed honeybee colonies has gone from 5 million in the 1940s to only 2.5 million today. Winter 2012/2013 saw total losses of managed honeybee colonies at 31.1 percent, a figure higher than average for the last six years.
The USDA describes the situation — known as colony collapse disorder (CCD) — as a serious problem threatening the health of honeybees. Researchers are looking into potential causes in four areas: pathogens, parasites, management stressors and environmental stressors. Despite a number of claims in the general and scientific media, a cause or causes of CCD have not been identified by researchers.
What does this mean to us, the produce-eating public? One of every three bites of food comes from plants pollinated by honeybees and other pollinators. Without bees to pollinate our food, we'd have a third less variety of food to choose from.
To bring awareness to this potentially devastating situation, Whole Foods Market partnered with the nonprofit Xerces Society in the "Share the Buzz" campaign to protect pollinator populations. To illustrate the point, at the University Heights Whole Foods, workers temporarily removed all produce that comes from plants dependent on pollinators.
This resulted in the removal of 237 out of 453 products – 52 percent of the department's normal product mix. What's missing? There's a definitive lack of apples, avocados, bok choy, broccoli, broccoli rabe, cantaloupe, carrots, cauliflower, celery, cucumbers, eggplant, green onions, honeydew, kale, leeks, lemons, limes, mangos, mustard greens, onions, summer squash and zucchini — all foods that rely on bees.
"Pollinators are a critical link in our food system. More than 85 percent of earth's plant species – many of which compose some of the most nutritional parts of our diet – require pollinators to exist. Yet we continue to see alarming declines in bee numbers," said Eric Mader, assistant pollinator conservation director at the Xerces Society. "Our organization works with farmers nationwide to help them create wildflower habitat and adopt less pesticide-intensive practices. These simple strategies can tip the balance back in favor of bees."
What can you do to help save the bees … and your avocados and mangos as well? Whole Foods suggests the following tips:
- Buy organic as an easy way to support pollinators.
- Solve pest problems at home without toxic and persistent pesticides.
- Plant bee-friendly flowers and fruits.
- Look for the "Share the Buzz" signs throughout stores to support vendors that donate to the Xerces Society.

Without Corporations
Corporate Crimes and Global Activism
This collection of books chronicles 25 years of ongoing corporate crimes by two major multinational corporations (Union Carbide and Dow Chemicals). It reveals the evolving understanding of the meaning of the Bhopal, India chemical spill for understanding the danger to human rights of globalization. In its major Bhopal case study, "Clouds of Injustice", Amnesty International's main conclusion is the need to make Human Rights a key standard in today's industrial globalization. The failure to clean up the site to this day has created yet new victims of polluted water aquifers of lethal chemicals leaking into the soil. To date no legal or corporate authority has compelled the corporation to correct these human rights violations. More >

U.S. Equal Employment
Opportunity Commission
'Look Policy' to Accommodate Muslims Wearing Hijab
SAN FRANCISCO - Clothing retailer Abercrombie & Fitch has agreed to pay $71,000 and to change its policies to settle two separate religious discrimination lawsuits on behalf of Muslim teens wearing hijabs (religious headscarves), the U.S. Equal Employment Opportunity Commission (EEOC) announced today. This settlement follows last week's ruling finding Abercrombie liable for religious discrimination in one case, and an April 2013 ruling dismissing its undue hardship claims in the other suit.
In an order issued Sept. 3, U.S. District Judge Yvonne Gonzalez Rogers found Abercrombie liable for religious discrimination when it fired a Muslim teenager from her "impact associate" (stockroom employee) position solely for refusing to remove her hijab. Abercrombie had claimed that the hijab violated its "Look Policy" and permitting employees to wear it would harm the Abercrombie brand. Observing that Umme-Hani Khan had been interviewed and hired while wearing the hijab and had worked without incident at Abercrombie's Hollister store at the Hillsdale Shopping Center in San Mateo, Calif., for four months, the court dismissed Abercrombie's argument as "not linked to any credible evidence." Khan intervened in the EEOC's lawsuit and was represented by the Legal Aid Society/Employment Law Center and the Council on American-Islamic Relations.
Similarly, in an April 2013 ruling on the EEOC's lawsuit on behalf of Halla Banafa, U.S. Judge Edward J. Davila also dismissed Abercrombie's undue-hardship claims on summary judgment, citing the "dearth of proof" linking store performance or the Abercrombie brand image to "Look Policy" compliance. The EEOC lawsuit alleged that the 18-year old Muslim applicant was asked about her headscarf and religion during her interview, then denied a job as an "impact associate" in Abercrombie's Great Mall outlet in Milpitas, Calif., for discriminatory reasons.
In a third lawsuit not part of this settlement, a district court in Tulsa, Okla., ruled on July 2011 that it was religious discrimination for Abercrombie not to hire a Muslim applicant for a sales position due to her hijab. That case is pending on appeal in the U.S. Court of Appeals for the 10th Circuit.
EEOC General Counsel David Lopez said, "Three U.S. District Courts have agreed: Abercrombie cannot claim that permitting Muslim employees to wear their hijabs is an undue hardship based on its 'Look Policy.' As we celebrate the 50th anniversary of the enactment of the March on Washington for Freedom and Jobs, this victory is one more step toward achieving the goal of eliminating religious discrimination in the workplace."
The EEOC, Abercrombie and Khan agreed to consolidate the settlement of the two California lawsuits into one Stipulated Judgment and Decree. Under the decree, Abercrombie will create an appeals process for denials of religious accommodation requests, inform applicants during interviews that accommodations to the "Look Policy" may be available, and incorporate headscarf scenarios into all manager training. The company will be required to make regular reviews of religious accommodation decisions to ensure consistency and provide biannual reports to the EEOC and Khan. Khan and Banafa will also receive $71,000 under the terms of the settlement.
"Our freedom to practice our religious beliefs is a fundamental right in this country," said EEOC San Francisco Regional Attorney William R. Tamayo. "Where reasonable alternatives exist, the law requires employers to be flexible to enable workers to observe their faith and do their job. Employers can't simply reject accommodation requests without concrete proof that the accommodations would cause harm to the business."
EEOC San Francisco District Director Michael Baldonado added, "We are pleased about the policy changes resulting from these lawsuits and commend these two courageous young women for standing up for their civil rights. It is not easy to fight against such a large corporation. Their efforts have resulted in lasting and measurable change."
Khan stated, "The judge's ruling affirms why I challenged my termination when it happened. It is important for people stand up to discrimination when they experience it, because the law is on our side. I am hopeful that the policy changes will ensure what happened to me never happens to another A&F employee again."
Banafa said, "I feel really good about fighting back and that my case will make a difference. I'm excited about the policy changes at Abercrombie and that the judges' decisions will make it easier for other women who wear a headscarf to go to work."
According to company information, Abercrombie & Fitch Co. operates retail stores under the brands Abercrombie & Fitch, for men and women over the age of 18; abercrombie kids targeting preteens between ages seven and 14; and Hollister Co. for teenagers aged 14 through 18, with more than 1,000 stores in North America.
The EEOC enforces federal laws prohibiting employment discrimination. Further information about the EEOC is available on its website at www.eeoc.gov.

What is the fiscal cliff?
With the US presidential election finally decided, President Barack Obama and Congress must quickly turn their attention to the pending "fiscal cliff" if they want to prevent the country falling back into recession.
The fiscal cliff, a term coined by US Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke, is used to describe a raft of tax increases and spending cuts that will automatically come into effect at the beginning of 2013 if the Democrats and Republicans cannot negotiate a new set of budgetary and economic policies to reduce the spiralling budget deficit of $US1.1 trillion.
The fear is that if President Obama can't find a way through the problem, the revival in the US economy may stall, plunging the nation back into recession.
But the problem facing the newly re-elected president is twofold. There is the economics, and then there is the politics. In order to keep the US from falling off the fiscal cliff, Obama - a Democrat - must negotiate an agreement with Republicans, who have different ideas about how the budget should be brought back into line.
These are the main measures.
Tax increases
- The expiration of a 2 per cent payroll tax cut, most likely to affect the average American worker
- End of the Bush-era tax breaks, which lowered incomes taxes for all Americans as well as taxes on capital gains and dividends
The Tax Policy Office, a non-partisan research group, said as a result US households on average would pay almost $US3500 extra tax per year. For middle income households the number would be closer to $US2000, or around 4 per cent of pre-tax income.
Spending cuts
- Automatic spending cuts, including a $US55 billion reduction in defence spending and a $US55 billion cut to domestic spending in 2013 and subsequent annual reductions in that volume until 2021.
- Cuts to unemployment social security and unemployment benefits totalling $US26 billion.
- A reduction in payments doctors receive for participating in Medicare of $US11 billion.
1. The US Congressional Budget Office (CBO) estimates the combination of all tax increases and spending cuts would result in the deficit falling to $US641 billion in the 2013 fiscal year (ends September 30), but the savings would result in a recession, with GDP shrinking by 0.5 per cent and a rise in the unemployment to 9.1 per cent by the end of 2013, from 7.9 per cent in October.
However, the CBO projects GDP to return to growth after 2013 and the unemployment rate to gradually ease to 5.7 per cent by the end of 2017.
2. If the US government were to continue down its current road, with a deal being struck to keep all current measures in place, the country's deficit is forecast to hit $US8.8 trillion by 2022. This does little to help the US as its debt and servicing costs become too high and it defaults on its loans.
3. Finally policy makers could come to some sort of compromise that would address the country's spiralling debt but to a lesser extent. This would likely result in a slowing growth and rise in unemployment but not as severe as option 1.

Vectra Elastic Mono
The thread itself is great, but even though I have handled it carefully, the thread being dispensed from a card has caused some trouble. Right now I've got it on 2 cards as it tangled when coming off the card. That I've only lost about a yard was a miracle of patience and work. Please (!) give this great thread the dispensing system it deserves. I love the thread but really have to balance that vs. the risk of waste.

In my recent DIY Dining Room makeover, I painted and distressed this hutch - I love the result. It is the perfect whimsical piece for our home.
This is the base of the hutch - an old wood finish.
This is the top cabinet for china. I like the 3 panel design with the thick crown moulding top.
I started with a pale blue-green paint that I mixed from old paints I had from other projects (like our bathroom). I ended up with a satin finish paint that works great on rustic furniture. After the blue paint, I applied a grey wash that I made from mixing a deep grey paint with a clear polyurethane and water. I brushed it on, then wiped it off, then used some of the blue paint to blend it, then brushed it on, then wiped it off...... you get the point. You really have to be creative and brave. Any mistakes can be painted over.
Here is the top painted. Mike removed the glass for me to make the painting easier. I left the interior the stained wood... I think it looks great with the white china.
I added new hardware to complete the look. These were $0.97 from Lowes.
Here is the completed room! See the details of the entire makeover here.

|HIV Infections
|Drug: Abacavir sulfate, Lamivudine and Zidovudine Drug: Cyclosporine Biological: Hepatitis A Vaccine (Inactivated) Drug: Efavirenz Biological: Pneumococcal Conjugate Vaccine, Heptavalent Biological: Rabies Vaccine
|Phase 2
The availability of HAART has substantially decreased the morbidity and mortality caused by HIV-1 infection. There is clinical and laboratory evidence suggesting that treatment of HIV-1 infection not only arrests the progressive immune deterioration caused by HIV-1, but also is associated with at least partial immune reconstitution. After starting HAART, most patients with chronic HIV-1 infection experience an increase in CD4 T-cells, but the magnitude of CD4 lymphocyte rise is highly variable. Patients who do not experience a substantial rise in circulating CD4 lymphocytes remain at risk for opportunistic infections. Strategies to enhance immune restoration in HIV-1 disease are needed. Studies have shown that immune restoration after HAART in patients with chronic HIV-1 infection is incomplete. There are, however, several potential methods that can be used that possibly may enhance the magnitude of CD4 lymphocyte rise induced by HAART. It is proposed that the lymphoid tissues, in which lymphocytes are trapped and activated to die, are a major site of immunopathology and cellular losses in HIV-infection. Interference with lymphocyte trapping and death in lymphoid tissues when cyclosporine, an immunosuppressant, is administered at the time of initiation of HAART may result in an enhancement of the magnitude of cellular restoration in patients who initiate HAART.
Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms:
Arm A: Weeks 1 to 2: abacavir (ABC)/lamivudine (3TC)/zidovudine (ZDV). Weeks 3 to 48: ABC/3TC/ZDV and efavirenz (EFV).
Arm B: Weeks 1 to 2: ABC/3TC/ZDV and cyclosporine. Weeks 3 to 48: ABC/3TC/ZDV and EFV.
Patients in both arms receive the following immunizations: Weeks 8 and 12: Hepatitis A vaccine inactivated and rabies vaccine.
Week 16: Rabies vaccine. To ascertain whether the augmentation in the rise in CD4 lymphocytes is sustained, the number of circulating CD4 lymphocytes 48 weeks after starting therapy is compared. To examine the functional significance of the cellular increases, the ability of patients to respond to immunization with recall and neoantigens are compared between the cyclosporine plus HAART arm and the HAART alone arm.
Substudy A5139: A 2-week substudy designed to explore the mechanisms of first-phase cellular restoration is performed. Patients undergo 4 lymph node aspirates. Lymphocytes are analyzed by the use of flow cytometry and correlated with findings in the main study. There is no limit on patient enrollment. Patients register to the substudy immediately after randomizing to the main study.

When it comes to fighting the broken food system, there are many resources available, but there hasn't been one go-to source on the Internet that brings them all together. FoodTank, The Food Think Tank, an organization and website that launched on Jan. 10, aims to be the one site where everyone — from policymakers to parents — can go to find the information that has been scattered until now.
FoodTank was co-founded by food activists Danielle Nierenberg and Ellen Gustafson (both pictured at right). The two began a partnership when they often found themselves at the same food conferences and discovered their shared concerns. They wanted to find ways to work together, and they realized they had both been looking for something like FoodTank. When they couldn't find it, they decided to start it together. They combined their food activism and complementary skills — Nierenberg's on-the-ground research in more than 35 countries and Gustafson's entrepreneurism — to create what they were looking for.
FoodTank is the result of their collaboration. They hope to help fix the broken food system by being a voice in the fight for health-based agriculture, alleviating hunger and poverty, and stemming the tide of obesity.
"Hunger and obesity issues have a lot in common," Nierenberg says. "We need to fix a food system that doesn't adequately nourish on either end." To create a successful food system, "nutritionists, farmers and researchers need to talk to each other to create a system that's healthy, safe, sustainable and affordable."
One of the main goals of FoodTank, Nierenberg says, is "changing the conversation about how we measure the success of our food system."
"The emphasis has been on increasing yield and calories, but we've forgotten to focus on nutrition. There's little focus on protein-rich crops like legumes or indigenous vegetables that are resistant to pests and diseases. Environmental sustainability has also been ignored."
Nierenberg notes that most of the groups that give money to those trying to find solutions to food problems have funded new technologies and innovations but ignored the people working on smaller projects who implement practices that are already succeeding. These smaller projects are not getting the attention and the investment needed to bring the knowledge to light.
At first, FoodTank will focus on becoming a "clearinghouse of reports and information to make sure that people can find the information that exists." When all of the information is in one place, Nierenberg hopes that FoodTank will become "a way for folks who aren't talking to each other yet to get together." Experts in various fields of the food movement will be able to find ways to collaborate and share their knowledge through FoodTank.
Further down the line, they hope to start raising money for what she calls a "Johnny Appleseed Fund." The fund will offer small grants to organizations that are in the field, working with the people who focus on health-based agriculture, those who already have the knowledge but not necessarily the resources to spread it. They will encourage others to fund those organizations, too.
FoodTank hopes to reach a wide audience with compelling blogs and articles. The original works on the site will be for everyone involved in fixing the food system, from policymakers down to those who are just learning about what the problems are.
To involve as many people as possible, the FoodTank founders will be traveling and touring throughout 2013, looking for innovations that are working in communities. FoodTank also will plan events to bring together farmers, businesses, workers, nonprofits, local activists, academics, policymakers, industry, journalists, community organizations, and anyone who wants to be involved with fixing what's wrong with our food system. The events will focus on discussion and problem-solving.
Through face-to-face interaction, the website and social media sites like Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest and YouTube, Nierenberg says FoodTank "will connect with people and interact with them in whatever way people want to receive Food Tank's message."

First ingredient is a named meat product
Insufficient meat content, some low quality ingredients, controversial filler
The first ingredient in this food is a named meat product, in meal form. There is a further meat meal ingredient 7th on the ingredient list. This is far too far down to make any substantial contribution to the overall meat content of the food. We note it is a fish ingredient, but we find no sign on the manufacturer website of a guarantee that they use only ethoxyquin-free protein sources in the product (ethoxyquin is a chemical preservative commonly added to fish ingredients, but which is banned or heavily regulated in human food due to the belief that it is carcinogenic).
The main grains in the food are rice, spelt and barley. All are decent quality grains. We note that chicken fat is the fourth ingredient in the food. Research at Purdue University has identified fat in the top four ingredients of dry food as a factor increasing the risk of bloat in large breed dogs. We assume the egg ingredient in this food to be whole eggs, which is appreciated. Tomato pomace is filler, as is rice bran which is a grain fragment. The protein content of the food is boosted by hydrolysate, which is not a high quality ingredient.
Beet pulp is controversial filler which appears to be used in large quantities in this food. It is a by-product, being dried residue from sugar beets which has been cleaned and extracted in the process of manufacturing sugar. It is a controversial ingredient in dog food, claimed by some manufacturers to be a good source of fibre, and derided by others as an ingredient added to slow down the transition of rancid animal fats and causing stress to kidney and liver in the process. We note that beet pulp is an ingredient that commonly causes problems for dogs, including allergies and ear infections, and prefer not to see it used in dog food. There are less controversial products around if additional fibre is required.
We appreciate the range of fruits/vegetables in the food but we note that this product includes synthetic vitamin K, a substance linked to liver problems and that is progressively being removed from better quality dog food products.

text: Finished the collector today. Used PVC pieces to create a means of capturing (without a mess) and recirculating antifreeze through the engine. Tomorrow I will adapt a feeder line from a capture tank (probably a twenty gallon bucket positioned under the collector end) to the raw water impeller. By letting the engine idle and come up to operating temperature I hope to also get antifreeze through the lines and core of the heater. Also will change oil and filter. Have not made up my mind whether to pull the engine block drain plugs and empty lines, or leave everything intact for the winter. Will post more pics tomorrow.

Visit Vocations Toronto at www.vocationstoronto.ca, a resourceful site in answering these questions.
In the New Testament, over and over, we find that we must remain with the
Lord because He remains with us. We are called to walk with Him and to
listen to Him and to allow His teaching and His words to form the way we
think, the way we feel and the way we act. Following the Lord Jesus means
allowing Him to change every aspect of our lives so that we more clearly
reflect His way of living, of thinking and of being.
Following someone else is not easy. The first reading today comes from the
First Book of Kings. Elisha realizes that he must following Elijah and be
his disciple. Elijah does not encourage him, but Elisha follows anyway.
We must realize that following the Lord Jesus means that at times we will
feel rejected, even by the Lord Himself. We must keep on walking and
letting the Lord form us.
The second reading today is from the Letter to the Galatians and Paul is
exhorting his followers to stop talking badly about one another. Gossiping
and saying bad things about others only ends up harming ourselves. We do
not think that way when we are gossiping or saying bad things. But if we
take the time to look deeply into life, we will find that putting others
down, talking badly about others, really only destroys us and not them.
The Gospel of Luke is sometimes called the Gospel of Mercy. The third
reading today is taken from this Gospel. The followers of Jesus are ready
to burn down a village because they will not listen to the Lord. Jesus has
to rebuke them. We should never be surprised at the ways that the word of
God are interpreted.
In the passage of the Gospel today we have people coming to Jesus who want
to follow Him. Again the message is given to them: it is not easy to
follow the Lord. Again this is important for us when we feel the
difficulties of following the Lord Jesus. He tells us in advance: it will
not be easy. The Gospel today ends telling us that if we start out, we
should continue, no matter how difficult it is.
My sisters and brothers, let us allow these readings to touch us and form
us today as we seek to follow the Lord. May our discipleship not be just
words and good feelings, by the difficult task of truly following and
making Jesus the most important person, the most important reality, in our
lives. May He bless us!
Reflections are available for the following Sundays:
