Pope Benedict XVI is considering changing the Vatican constitution to allow a vote for his successor to begin before March 15, Vatican spokesman the Rev. Federico Lombardi said Wednesday.
Benedict, 85, shocked the world last week when he announced his intention to stand down effective Feb. 28, citing the frailty of old age.
Existing rules say the Roman Catholic Church's cardinals should start voting on a replacement from 15 to 20 days after the papal throne becomes vacant. With Benedict's resignation due to start Feb. 28, the cardinals' conclave ordinarily would start no sooner than March 15.
But Lombardi has said that because Benedict was leaving the papacy through resignation rather than death, the Vatican would explore the possibility of selecting a new pope sooner than normally prescribed.

European Decorative Arts and Sculpture The Annunciation Made in Nottingham, England, Europe15th century Artist/maker unknown, English Alabaster with paint and gilding * Gallery 202, European Art 1100-1500, second floor 1945-25-107 Purchased with Museum funds from the George Grey Barnard Collection, 1945 |
LabelNottingham alabasters often appeared in sets with an established theme and, much like painted altarpieces, were frequently used to decorate the backs of altars. Few groups, however, remain intact and in their original locations. This example depicts the popular subject of the life of the Virgin Mary. Such altarpieces were exported to a number of Western European countries.* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons. Although gallery locations on the website are updated regularly, there is no guarantee that this object will be on display on the day of your visit. |

The effects that new technologies can have on constitutional processes was the topic of this November 22nd IPI roundtable discussion.

Tune in weekday afternoons from 3pm to 7pm for The ROD BUBBA Show! A few laughs and a dinner bucket full of great Country Music!
Enjoy the ride home from school or work by listening to K93! I promise you two things...the best country music and fun! If it is happening in Somerset and around the Lake Cumberland area...I will be talking about it. You just never know who may be dropping in on us during The ROD BUBBA Show!
I got my radio license October 2, 1981 and became the chief announcer for WSCC FM in Somerset. I worked for a couple years at WDMC FM in Richmond. I began my radio career at WSEK back in September 1985. Back then, WSEK was 96 Power Country. It later changed to 97 Power Country... years later... 97 Power Country became Power Country K93..... 93.9FM. With my broadcasting degree from Eastern Kentucky University folded and stored in an old Merle Haggard album, I had three options...get a job in radio, become a poodle groomer or draw a crazy check. Radio was a bit more fun than grooming poodles and to earn a crazy check was more honorable than "drawing" one so the journey began...and so it goes...

General Comments: Futures closed mixed, with New York a little lower on Friday, but London higher yesterday. The lack of demand news has hurt the bull case and made it hard to sustain rallies given big production ideas. However, some are looking for a short covering rally in the short term. Brazil said it will increase the ethanol in its gasoline blends in May, and this could help work off a lot of the surplus production in Brazil and could tighten world balance sheets. Production has been strong in Brazil so far this year, and reports say that the new crop production looks to be strong as well, so the diversion into more domestic ethanol use will help. Exports from Brazil continue to be very strong after the delayed start to the program. The Thai crushing season is continuing, but the crushing and export pace remain slow. It is possible that the crop size there has been overestimated. Traders wonder if and when India will cut offers to the market due to the lower prices and perhaps less than expected production due to some dry weather at the beginning of the growing season.
Overnight News: Mostly dry weather expected in Brazil through this weekend. Temperatures should be near to above normal. Iraq has tendered to buy 50,000 tons of White Sugar. Wire reports indicate it bought 200,000 tons last week.
Chart Trends: Trends in New York are down with objectives of 1750 and 1700 May. Support is at 1760, 1730, and 1700 May, and resistance is at 1800, 1820, and 1850 May. Trends in London are mixed. Support is at 489.00, 486.00, and 483.00 May, and resistance is at 499.00, 502.00, and 508.00 May.
General Comments: Futures were a little lower as traders reacted to the USDA reports. It was mostly a consolidation trade. Many are worried about a bearish surprise as prices have gotten much stronger in the last week. Bears point to increasing certified stocks levels for reasons to be bearish. Demand bulls noted positive economic data released last week and positive economic data in general as a reason to buy. However, export sales reports showed some reason for worry last week as sales were down and China cancelled some recent purchases. The current low new crop prices are bringing into question what farmers in Texas and the Delta and Southeast will plant this year. Some are wondering if planted area might be lower this year here in the US due to weak prices against competing crops. The area lost would go mostly to Corn and Soybeans. Current weather featured some precipitation in Delta and Southeast areas, but western Texas was mostly dry. Delta and Southeast areas will be dry. Ideas are that the market can continue to work higher overall.
Overnight News: The Delta and Southeast will see showers and rain Thursday and Friday, then a dry weekend. Temperatures will average near to above normal. Texas will get dry weather. Temperatures will average below normal. The USDA spot price is now 76.67 ct/lb. ICE said that certified Cotton stocks are now 0.238 million bales, from 0.221 million yesterday.
Chart Trends: Trends in Cotton are mixed. Support is at 80.55, 80.20, and 79.90 March, with resistance of 82.10, 82.30, and 83.40 March.

General Comments: Futures closed a little lower on speculative trading in preparation for a cool weekend. It was cool, but not cold enough to do any damage. Weather should improve in Florida after one more cold shot early this week. Temperatures remain cool in the state, and conditions are a little more wet. Forecasts do not call for any threatening temperatures, but recent dry weather is creating ideas that more fruit can be lost. Fruit is holding for now, and irrigation is being used by producers to hold crop condition. Harvest in Florida of mid and early oranges is continuing, and the Valencia harvest is underway. Weather in Brazil is reported to be good. Brazil is seeing near to above normal temperatures and dry conditions or scattered showers. Harvest is continuing, so an increase in supplies should be expected at this time of year.
Overnight News: Florida weather forecasts call for mostly dry conditions. Temperatures willaverage below normal. CitrusBR in Brazil estimates oranges production there at 281 million boxes this year, down 23% from last year.
Chart Trends: Trends in FCOJ are mixed. Support is at 125.00, 123.50, and 122.00 March, with resistance at 132.00, 135.00, and 139.00 March.
General Comments: Futures were lower on speculative selling tied to reports of good weather in Brazil and increased production in Colombia. London was lower on primarily speculative selling as Vietnam producers are not selling due to the Tet holiday. Prices for Arabica continue to work lower on ideas of big production. Bulls keep talking about the losses from rust in Central America and the bears keep noting that there is more than enough coffee being produced in other countries to cover the losses seen in Central America. For now, it looks like Central America could lose at least 5% of the total crop this year and more next year. Current crop development is good this year in Brazil, and production areas are getting beneficial showers for the developing crop. Production ideas remain big there, and also remain big in Vietnam even though producers there talk about the potential for 25% crop losses. Central America crops are mostly harvested. Colombia is reported to have good conditions.
Overnight News: Certified stocks are lower today and are about 2.669 million bags. The ICO composite price is now 129.29 ct/lb. Brazil should get mostly dry weather. Temperatures will average near to above normal. Colombia should get mostly dry conditions, and Central America and Mexico should get mostly dry conditions. Temperatures should average near to above normal. GCA stocks are now 4.776 million bags, from 4.735 million last month.
Chart Trends: Trends in New York are down with objectives of 125.00 and 108.00 May. Support is at 137.00, 134.00, and 131.00 May, and resistance is at 143.00, 145.00, and 147.00 March. Trends in London are mixed. Support is at 2050, 2010, and 2000 May, and resistance is at 2080, 2100, and 2130 May. Trends in Sao Paulo are down with no objectives. Support is at 177.00, 174.00, and 171.00 September, and resistance is at 181.00, 183.00, and 186.00 September.
General Comments: Futures closed lower on Friday and London was lower yesterday despite forecasts for stressful weather for developing crops in West Africa. There were reports of Ghana selling. Hot and dry winds now could hurt the mid-crop production and also hurt some development of the crops for next year. Speculators seemed to be the best buyers as trends started to turn up on the charts. Malaysia and Indonesia crops appear to be in good condition and weather is called favorable. Overall weather patterns in West Africa production areas are good for harvest progress and for the mid-crop and next crop, although hot and dry weather could hurt. Traders are starting to look ahead and past the midcrop harvest and note that the market could move to a production deficit next year.
Overnight News: Mostly dry conditions are expected in West Africa. Temperatures will average above normal. Malaysia and Indonesia should see episodes of scattered showers, but Malaysia will be drier this weekend. Temperatures should average near normal. Brazil will get scattered showers and warm temperatures. ICE certified stocks are lower today at 3.945 million bags. LIFFE stocks are now 2,672 standard lots, 132 large lots, and 3 bulk lots.
Chart Trends: Trends in New York are down with objectives of 2110 and 2030 May. Support is at 2130, 2120, and 2085 May, with resistance at 2150, 2190, and 2210 May. Trends in London are down with objectives of 1390 and 1365 May. Support is at 1405, 1390, and 1370 May, with resistance at 1420, 1440, and 1450 May.

Andrew R. Hamilton '13 recently placed third in the nationwide Religious Freedom Student Writing Competition, sponsored annually by the J. Reuben Clark Law Society and the International Center for Law and Religion Studies at Brigham Young University. His paper, "The New York Marriage Equality Act and the Strength of Its Religious Exceptions," explores whether the religious exceptions in New York's recent same-sex marriage law would allow a religious organization to refuse to place foster children with same-sex couples, in accordance with the organization's religious beliefs.
Andrew recently received his $500 prize at the annual International Religious Liberty Award Dinner in Washington D.C. The program included speeches by leaders in the field of law and religion, including keynote speaker Dr. Katrina Lantos Swett, Chair of the U.S. Commission on International Religious Freedom and President of the Lantos Foundation. The evening concluded with the presentation of the 2012 International Religious Liberty Award to Professor Douglas Laycock of the University of Virginia." Receiving the award and attending the dinner was a great experience," Andrew said. "While at the dinner, I met faculty and students who are doing great things in this field. I even met two professors who were instrumental in drafting religious exceptions I discussed in my paper. They appreciated my analysis."
Law and religion is one of Andrew's main academic interests. He is currently in his second year as a Student Fellow at the Law School's Center for Law and Religion (CLR) and participated in last spring's Colloquium in Law and Religion. This semester, he is taking the seminar, Catholic Social Thought and the Law, taught by CLR Associate Director Marc O. DeGirolami. His paper, which will be published as a Note in a forthcoming edition of the Journal of Catholic Legal Studies, was the result of a directed research project under the supervision of CLR Director Mark L. Movsesian. Students and others interested in learning more about the Center for Law and Religion should visit stjohns.edu/clr or clrforum.org.

European Painting before 1900, Johnson Collection Portrait of Mademoiselle Legrand Made in France, Europe1875 Pierre-Auguste Renoir, French, 1841 - 1919 Oil on canvas * Gallery 152, European Art 1850-1900, first floor (Toll Gallery) 1986-26-28 The Henry P. McIlhenny Collection in memory of Frances P. McIlhenny, 1986 |
LabelDuring the 1870s, when his Impressionist paintings sold poorly, Renoir supported himself with portrait commissions. This portrait of six-year-old Adelphine Legrand, the daughter of a friend and art dealer, shows the artist's skill in capturing the hesitant personality of a young child, full of natural vivacity but determined to behave.ProvenanceAlphonse Legrand, Paris, until 1910; sold to Josse and Gaston Bernheim-Jeune, Paris, 1910 [1]; sold to Durand-Ruel, Paris, December 1, 1934; sold to Henry P. McIlhenny, Philadelphia, December 1, 1934; bequest to PMA, 1986. 1. See Guy-Patrice Dauberville and Michel Dauberville, Renoir: catalogue raisonné des tableaux, pastels, dessins et aquarelles, vol. 1, 1858-1881 (Paris, 2007), p. 491-492, no. 495. While in the Bernheim-Jeune home at l'avenue Henri-Martin, the portrait hung to the right of the entrance to the dining room; see Jean Dauberville, En Encadrant le siècle, Paris, 1967, illus. facing p. 573.* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.

American Art Punch Bowl Possibly made in New York City, New York, United States, North and Central America1900-1915 Possibly made by Joseph Heinrichs, American (active New York and Paris), active 1897 - 1937 Copper and silver with stone arrowhead decoration; interior electroplated with gold * Gallery 111, American Art, first floor 1993-65-1 Purchased with the Richardson Fund and the Thomas Skelton Harrison Fund, 1993 |
LabelIn the twentieth century, as the eastern United States became more industrialized and urban, objects and images that evoked the ruggedness of the American West became popular. The iconography of this punch bowl - the representation of American Indian heads and bear pelt, together with the stone arrowheads - came to symbolize the country's uniqueness and strength as it was taking its place as a world power.* Works in the collection are moved off view for many different reasons.

Species extinction is occurring at unprecedented levels, estimated at up to 1,000 times the 'background' or natural rate. The causes are many, including habitat destruction, land conversion for agriculture and development, climate change, pollution, illegal wildlife trade, and the spread of invasive species. The loss of species results in biodiversity loss and ecosystem degradation, diminishing the quality of our lives and our basic economic security. By saving species we save biodiversity and the ecosystems that provide the natural resources we need to survive. However to save species, we need knowledge. Read more

Adele: I wasn't yelling at Chris Brown at Grammys
Updated On: Feb 13 2013 11:49:48 AM CST
Adele received kudos from some corners of the Internet earlier this week after a photo surfaced of her appearing to go off on Chris Brown at the Grammy Awards.
The photographer caught Adele in the middle of saying something to Brown, who wasn't wearing a happy expression in the photo.
A prominent theory was that Adele was yelling at Brown for not standing and applauding when Frank Ocean, the R&B star Brown allegedly fought with pre-Grammys, won the award for best urban contemporary album. Brown was also nominated in that category.
But the idea that Adele was arguing with Brown didn't hold much water thanks to another photo that showed the two smiling together, and Adele confirmed via Twitter Tuesday she was simply being friendly.
"Chris Brown and I were complimenting each other in that photo actually!" the nine-time Grammy winner said.

A monumental drama in sombre tones
When father and son love the same woman, tragedy ensues. Add to the mix Rodrigo, a nobleman willing to die for liberty; Elisabet, yearning for love; and the intimidating Grand Inquisitor. The result is a powerful drama that unfolds in a series of enthralling arias and duets. Don Carlos is Verdi at his finest, a veritable feast of voices.
Set in late Medieval Spain, this monumental drama of love, politics and power is being staged in a new, monumental production. There are fine moments in store as two magnificent bass voices clash in a Gothic landscape. Don Carlos is a co-production with Czech National Opera.
Premiere is on the 19th of October 2012.

Quality quality quality By Lionfish lover on 12/17/13
Lionfish lover would recommend this product to a friendI ordered this amazing rodi unit on Black Friday special.... Needless to say I wish I would have ordered earlier. I previously owned a four stage coral life unit that was ok, but fought leaks everytime I used it... The brs product is simply the high quality I have been looking for. Bottom line .... If it is made by BRS or recommend by them it's worth getting!!!!! -

a must have! By Matthew on 12/3/13
Matthew would recommend this product to a friendRO/DI filters are a must have when doing a reef tank, and this is a great one! The quality and the simplicity aregreat! comes with everything to hook up to any water source you want. I put mine in the bathroom next to the sink and hook it up to faucet. I only make around 5 gallons/week so the filters will last a really long time. The TDS meter is also great to let you know its time to replace your filters! -
Fantastic By ReefWrestler on 11/22/13
ReefWrestler would recommend this product to a friendWhat can I say? This thing is very well built. As soon as you pick it up out of the box you know you have something of value. Then you get to see it work. They could sell this product for $400 in my opinion. Well done. Plus it was delivered exactly when they said it would. Three thumbs up BRS. You have a new customer. -
Best RO/DI system put there!! By Louis on 11/19/13
Louis would recommend this product to a friendThe BRS 5 stage RO/DI system in my opinion is the BEST system out in the market right now. Not only the 5 stage but all there systems are! right out of the box it was all set up and ready to use, just needed to hook the water source and was making water in minutes. This system is also very well build. High quality plastic and aluminum. I actually dropped the DI canister one day when moving the system and it was still working and in great condition. The filter media lasts a very long time and is very high quality. if i could rate this system out of 100 i would give it a 110/100 thats how amazing it is!! -
Easy to install and use! Great product. By Dylan on 11/5/13
Dylan would recommend this product to a friendI have always needed to buy a RO DI unit but never pulled the trigger due to thinking they were very complicated. Finally, I ordered the 5 stage RO DI unit from BRS. Easiest thing to hook up, easy to read and use. I feel dumb for not buying this thing sooner. 0 TDS, easy to install, easy setup, and best of all fresh RO DI whenever I need it. Great buy, I recommend this to everyone. -
Best Thing I've Purchased By Scott on 11/5/13
Scott would recommend this product to a friendI was getting tired of hauling buckets back and forth from the fish store and paying the marked up cost. There was always a bit of doubt in mind as well as to the quality of water that I was getting.
The BRS RO/DI system is working flawlessly for me. Super easy to set up and producing 0 TDS water. Cant beat the price as well. No more hauling buckets, water on demand and peace of mind as to the quality of water I am getting.
Thank you BRS! -
Solid performer, solidly built By David on 11/4/13
David would recommend this product to a friendIt's larger, heavier and just generally more substantial that I'd expected. Reeks of quality. I'm getting a 0 TDS reading going into the DI resin canister. Already considering the 150GPD upgrade just to reduce the amount of waste water. -
Great system By Mario on 10/7/13
Mario would recommend this product to a friendWas able to set this unit up in a matter of minutes. Has made my enjoyment of my saltwater tank even better since I don't have to carry 5 gallon buckets from my LFS anymore. It's also saved me tons of money as every time I go to my LFS I want to get one more item for my tank. BRS thanks for making a great product! -
Worthy investment By James on 10/3/13
James would recommend this product to a friendI don't have a local shop to buy ro/di water so I decided to try this system in my fresh water tanks before I started my reef project. The water out of the tap here in Ky. is very hard with a very high tds but this system has been going strong for about a year and still producing 0 tds water. I have not required a lot of water until I started my reef project but I have never had freshwater tanks look so good until I started using ro/di water and I'm sold this is the only way to go. I just bought a booster pump because I now have a higher water demand with a lower end water pressure and can't wait to see the results I will be getting with the added pressure. All parts bought here on BRS. -
Great Product! By Alvin on 9/26/13
Alvin would recommend this product to a friendI've had my BRS RO/DI 5 stage unit for the past year and I can't be happier with it. Sure it's more expensive, but it is a better investment in the long run. You can get your own water from your home without having the need to run to a LFS and carry heavy 5 gallon buckets each week. It was time to replace the DI resin that was included in my canister and I didn't really know much about it. I called in customer service and they explained to me the step process on how to do it. I was happy that BRS included a refillable cartridge. I'm waiting for my resin to come in the mail now!

I purchased this unit and was wondering if the red source tubing is used to connect to the brass saddle valve that came with the system?
Bulk Reef Supply Hi Mark,
That is correct, the red tubing is the input tubing and will connect to whatever your input source is (in this case the saddle valve). -

Are the filters and DI resin included with the BRS 5 Stage PLUS RO/DI System?
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Donavan,
They sure are. System wouldn't work very well without them! -

Could I use this system for drinking water as well as a Fish only saltwater tank?
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Nick,
The unit itself will produce water that is suitable for both, though if your going to use it for drinking water you will want to pick up the add on faucet kit. 75GPD is fast for an RO/DI unit but its still a fast drip. Without the add-on faucet kit it would take you quiet a while to fill up a glass of water.

by Kathy on October 29, 2013, @10:41 AM
With the 5 stage plus rodi system would it be possible to just disconnect the tube from the ro canister before it reaches the di canister to fill a drinking water container? Not the pressurized tanks but simply a container to store drinking water in the frig. Thanks.
Bulk Reef Supply Hi Kathy,
This can be done in principle, just keep in mind that 75gpd is a drip so without the pressurized storage tank and the rest of the kit it would take you a very long time to fill up a glass of water :-) -

What is the water waste ratio?
Bulk Reef Supply Hey Stephen,
Assuming proper water temperature and pressure and your not doing anything to drastically increase back pressure (like a pressurized storage tank), you can expect to get a waste to product water ratio of about 3:1.
The BRS 5 Stage PLUS Reverse Osmosis/Deionization System includes all the essential features necessary to start making pure RO/DI water at 75 gallons per day. Plus an air-filled pressure gauge, membrane flush kit and Dual Inline TDS meter.
5 Stages of Filtration:
- Purtrex 5 micron depth sediment filter
- MATRIKX CTO/2 5 micron carbon block
- MATRIKX+1 0.6 micron carbon block
- 75 GPD Dow Filmtec Membrane
- Single Deionization(DI) stage with refillable cartridge
PLUS Features:
- Air-filled Pressure Gauge (100 psi) to help ensure the RO system is performing properly
- Membrane Flush Kit to help maintain RO membrane
- HM Digital Dual Inline TDS (total dissolved solids) Meter to help monitor system
Parts Bag Includes:
- 1/4" Push Connect drain saddle clamp to plumb the waste water line from the RO system to a sink's drain pipe
- Mur-lok Push Connect ball valve for easy on/off
- Filter wrench to tighten and loosen canisters
- Self-piercing saddle valve to make a permanent connection to household water supply
- Chrome faucet connector to make a non-permanent connection to kitchen sink
- Utility sink/garden hose adapter to make a non-permanent connection to garden hose or laundry tub
- Mur-lok EZ angle stop adaptor to make a semi-permanent connection to household water supply under sink
Standard Features:
- Automatic shut-off valve
- Mur-lok Push Connect dual EPDM O-Ring fittings
- 10 Ft Each of Blue, Red and Black Tubing
- All BRS Reverse Osmosis units exclusively feature American made DOW, MATRIKX and Purtrex filters. We also use American made Mur-lok dual EPDM O-ring fittings whenever possible on all of our reverse osmosis units. These NSF certified fittings and filters cost us more than inexpensive imports, but set our units apart from the competition.

The debate about debt rages. Is it cool for the Greens to see other parties? The Coalition says "of course it is" as Labor carries on like a disgruntled ex. Meanwhile, Palmer United finds itself stuck in Boganland. Everyone else wonders if Ugg-boot wearing means they are a bogan too.

....Last time I checked, the military in this country is actually funded by the taxpayer through the government.....
Anonymous Coward 27095381
The last time you checked? You haven't checked anything. The money in this "country" is created out of thin air! Imagine 100 dollars created as debt and spent for every for every dollar actually earned and spent and you are just scratching the surface.
This is what Congress has been allowing under orders from their banking masters who OWN The U.S. Corporation that you call your country and "vote" executives into and out of (Oh yes, it's a Corporation alright, not a country) and it runs under a controlled and sustained bankruptcy.
Anyone that supports or pushes the illusion that the tax revenue "funds" government spending and AND that your vote is any sort of actual "power" in establishing control over it is either ignorant of the facts or an asshole perpetuating a system against the American people. You are fortunate,AC, that you are simply one of millions ignorant. You have a lot to learn but if you really care, you will.
