Release # 047 {2911] April 24, 1996
DENVER (UMNS) -- "Shalom is on the loose." That was the testimony given by officials of the Communities of Shalom ministry as they addressed the 1996 United Methodist General Conference.
The "shalom zone" concept was created during the 1992 General Conference after riots broke out in Los Angeles to protest the verdict in the Rodney King beating case. "Shalom" is the Hebrew word for peace.
Coordinated through the United Methodist Board of Global Ministries' National Division, the shalom program shows churches how to work with their communities to stimulate economic development, improve race and class relationships, address health issues, and develop congregations.
Bishop Felton E. May, Harrisburg, Pa., proclaimed "shalom is on the loose" in 103 urban and rural communities, 24 annual conferences, 250 congregations, 50 community organizations and 71 ecumenical ventures, where laity, clergy and business leaders are working toward the biblical image of shalom.
According to May, the next steps in the shalom initiative are to:
According to Guannie Dixon, staff person for the Los Angeles Shalom Zone, the United Methodist Church set into motion "one of the most powerful" strategies for church and community transformation when it created the first shalom zone in 1992.
She said the transformation has not been without pain and struggle. Obstacles have ranged from floods and earthquakes to lack of money and the change in pastors as a result of appointments.
However, she said, the laity remained focus on the vision and the obstacles became opportunities for growth and development. "The people persevered because of God's amazing grace to build communities of hope and daring -- communities of shalom," she added.

"Sarah Palin's Book"
Betcha didn't know Sarah Palin had a book! Oh, but she does! The NRCC told me so today. You see? It says that I can "Get Sarah Palin's Book" right up there in the subject. So she has a book. It's hers. It's just that she didn't…well…you already know the punchline.
———- Forwarded message ———-
From: Chairman Tom Cole
Date: Thu, Oct 2, 2008 at 5:00 PM
Subject: Get Sarah Palin's Book Today
To: Redacted
Dear Brad:
Tonight's debate between Sarah Palin and Joe Biden will show there has never been a more clear difference between the values of our Party versus the values of Barack Obama and the liberal Democrats.
A Barack Obama, Joe Biden, Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid team is just too risky a chance to take. That is why your immediate donation is needed today.
The momentum that started during the Republican convention at the beginning of September has continued to build. The presidential race is neck-and-neck and many congressional races around the country are too close to call.
And, hasn't Governor Sarah Palin shown why she is a great pick for Vice President?
While on the campaign trail she has proved that our Party's conservative values are not just rhetoric – Sarah Palin walks the walk.
She does that by talking common sense to Americans, and reaffirming their beliefs about what we need to do in Washington to change the direction of the country.
But we can't send John McCain and Sarah Palin to the White House without support.
They need more Republicans in Congress who share their values and their views, and who will work with them to change the direction of the country.
To help raise funds for our efforts to elect Republicans to Congress, we ask that you make special campaign donation of $100, $150, $250 or whatever you can afford now by clicking here.
If you donate $150 or more now, we will send you a biography of Governor Palin titled SARAH: HOW A HOCKEY MOM TURNED ALASKA'S POLITICAL ESTABLISHMENT UPSIDE DOWN as a token of our appreciation for your support
Let's turn Washington upside down on November 4th and send more Republicans like Sarah Palin to Congress.
Tom Cole, M.C.
P.S. Your contribution of $250, $150, $100 or whatever you can afford, is needed as quickly as possible so we can build upon the momentum Governor Palin has created for our Party! We'll send you a copy of the biography of Sarah Palin if you contribute $150 or more. But whatever you can give will be a huge help in the final weeks of the campaign. Please click here now to donate today.

Data Provisioning Service – New PAYE desktop viewer available from October
Tuesday, September 29th, 2009HMRC's Data Provisioning Service (DPS) is the means by which HMRC sends PAYE notices and reminders to employers and agents online. Employers and agents can log in to the PAYE for Employers services on HMRC's website and read and download tax code notices, student loan notices and other employer notices. Some developers have also built the facilities into their computerised payroll systems.
However, although DPS is practical to use for small employers, it is cumbersome and limited in the support it provides for large employers, agents and bureaux who receive large volumes of codes and notices. In response to feedback from these large users and after running trials with a number of employers, HMRC is making a new "viewer" available that should make it easier to download and manage notices in bulk.
The PAYE Desktop Viewer (PDV) will be available from 5 October 2009 to download from HMRC's website and install onto users' computers. The system, after an initial download of all of the current notices held in DPS, will give users a summary of the codes and notices, show them which are not yet actioned and allow them to be marked as actioned. It can also be used to search by individual, employer, date, notice type, NINO or works number. Users may be designated as "administrators", who can connect to HMRC and download new codes and notices, or as "sub-administrators, who can only work on codes and notices sent to them by administrators.

for the scheduled competition, he immediately thought of Lyons. Hyde and his son have been enjoying the Lyons Outdoor Games for years, and knew first hand how great the kayaking opportunities were along the St. Vrain River. He called local kayak enthusiast Russ Huff about holding the event here. Huff talked to Sgt. Kevin Parker, another avid local kayaker, and Parks & Rec. Supervisor Dave Cosgrove. Cosgrove spoke with Town Administrator Victoria Simonsen and she said, "Make it happen!" And that's how in a little less than 36 hours scores of young kayakers and their families, from literally all over the world, came to Lyons over the weekend.
Hyde said he had approximately 58 participants from Colorado, Nevada, California, Tennessee, Texas, Virginia, Wisconsin, Maryland, British Columbia, Alberta, Saskashawan, New Zealand, and Australia. They participated in six different events: a sladeo (slalom/rodeo), a sprint slalom (short course), a free-style, champion slalom (long course), and a boater-cross (total mayhem) held in Meadow Park and the Black Bear Hole, and a down river race, which went from the upper Apple Valley Bridge to the Second Avenue Bridge near Bohn Park. The kids and their parents, and sometimes grandparents camped in Bohn Park, ate at local restaurants and coffee shops and had a great time. Everyone agreed that the hospitality they were shown while dropping in on Lyons "unannounced" was second to none. To a kayaker (and their parents) they all said they hope the race can become a regular Lyons' event!
The young Lyons Kayak Team, some of whom got their start in the Lyons Parks & Rec. Kids Kayak Club, fared pretty well in the competition. Spencer Huff, aged 16, his brother Oran – 8, Henry Hyde – 9, Garrett Parker – 16, Max Carlson – 15, Samantha Johnson – 17, and Henry Heyman – 16, each took home multiple medals: gold, silver, and bronze, in their various age and gender categories for the various races.
Congratulations to all the competitors, and kudos to the Town Staff and local parents who made this wonderful event happen on such short notice!

Reader's Review: Great book if you are serious about your health
This is not for the faint of heart. Diane Cramer has written several books already, and they are all great reference sources. I made some interesting discoveries just based on my own horoscope and this book. Diane's writing style is concise and easy to grasp. Llewellyn's organization of the book leaves a bit to be desired though. If you have a Windows PC, you will probably find the enclosed CD-ROM with software to create your own Health Report very worthwhile and an excellent start to taking control of your own health. I enjoy this book very much and frequently consult it to adjust my own health regimen. Your personal alopathic physician may find it all too farfetched; then again, I'd rather take my vitamins now rather than prescription medications with nasty side effects later. Diane Cramer doesn't claim that using astrology could prevent or cure disease, but I believe that it can at least give insight into how to take charge of any (potential) health issues. Use this book as a guide to improving your health. Highly recommended!

Very nicePros: It seems very well constructed, and the pull down/lock mechanism is very smooth. Cons: Was a bit scuffed from the factory, but it cleaned up easily. Other Thoughts: I would recommend you visit their website first before you buy, as they have many, many sizes to choose from. Be sure you get the right size for your projection. Did you find this review helpful? |
looks goodPros: It was affordable, the picture looks great on it, not much else to say, smelled nice coming out of the packaging. Cons: Dunno if it's normal, but it's got a bit of wrinkle to it when I pull it down. Not a big issue. Also, one end of the steel tube that the screen rolls up into it looks like it was rubbed in dirt before it was packaged up at the factory. Other Thoughts: I ordered this w/ the $400 Acer projector that's available right now. Makes for a great, cheap, theater setup. Did you find this review helpful? |
Good for classroomsPros: A simple, cost-effective pull-down screen. Works well in church classrooms with NEC XGA DLP projectors. Cons: Pull-down mechanism a bit touchy (I, personally, have trouble with the retraction - LOL) Other Thoughts: 80" is a great size! Did you find this review helpful? |

I wish that people would stop giving me reasons not to trust them. It would be so, so much easier if people just laid out all their intentions on the table so I could just tell them upfront if I was okay with them. Or maybe if I could just read minds or tell if people were lying - that would be nice. I'm just tired of wasting my time with people who aren't honest with me. They spend all day telling me one thing, but they mean the complete opposite. What is the point of that?
I just want to find someone who is honest with me all the time, like I am with them. I'm not afraid to say what is on my mind or what I believe - why is everyone else?

In the same pan, fry one tortilla until a light golden colour, then flip. Sprinkle one tablespoon of cheese on the tortilla in the pan, then break one egg in the middle of the tortilla. Drag any egg white that spills out into the pan back onto the tortilla and season. Flip the tortilla, making sure to break the egg yolk, and fry for 30 seconds, or more for a well-done egg.
Flip the tortilla, egg side up, onto a plate, sprinkle with a little tomato, onion, coriander, a quarter of the capsicum, some black beans if using, more cheese and a few drops of Tabasco sauce.
Repeat with remaining tortillas. Roll the tortilla and eat with the hands or eat flat on a plate with a knife and fork.

Many couples today are opting for wedding cake alternatives. Gone are the days when a traditional three-tiered cake was �required�. Brides and grooms are choosing from options that celebrate their unique relationship, their cultures and their inner children with their guests.
Opportunities to replace the cake are limitless. Some couples choose to incorporate their own cultural heritage, for example selecting a traditional French Croquembouche, a regal and sticky triangle pile of sweet doughy spheres. Jamaican �black cakes�, very British fruit cakes or grandma�s old-fashioned apple pie recipe might also replace the conventional with something more meaningful and personal.
Others prefer small bites to gigantic concoctions. Wedding cupcakes have grown steadily in popularity over the last several years. The scaled-down treats give couples the chance to choose several different cake and frosting flavors, and are also easier to transport. They can be personalized with the wedding�s motif, tiny little custom tags on toothpicks, and pretty cupcake wrappers that turn ordinary dessert into magazine cover material.
Like the idea of serving small bites, but afraid that the wedding cake will be missed? Cupcakes and other tiny treats can be displayed on multi-tiered cupcake towers that offer just enough of the traditional feel to make all of your guests happy.
Some couples will take the small bite concept and go big, creating elaborate dessert buffets or Venetian hours. Mini-cheesecakes, tiny �clairs, petit fours, cake-shaped cookies, and little portions of mousse, cobbler, or any favorite sweet treat are set out on colorful cake platters and in a wide variety of fun containers.
Ice cream sundae bars with a choice of toppings are also rising in popularity. The timeless candy buffet is another option and can either replace or complement a traditional cake, and is sure to delight every �child� at your wedding, from 8 to 80! Advantage Bridal allows you to shop for exactly the right hue in Themes by Color, and carries many different personalized and sweet products for you to choose from when considering your wedding cake alternative!

How does that saying go, "With a name like 'Salmon', the steaks have got to be good!"? Or, perhaps, it's a punchline. Either way, in Steve Salmon's case, it's true. Raised in a food industry-family, and managing a Los Angeles dining hotspot by 25, the restaurant wunderkind's meteoric rise to the top of the foodservice chain seemed almost predestined. Here, we hook up with Morton's "2011 GM of the Year" and learn that when he's not winning accolades, the award-winning GM enjoys leisure-time aboard his boat or heads to Lake Tahoe for peace and tranquility. Maybe there is something in a name…
BACKSTORY: I literally grew up in the hospitality industry and followed in some pretty big footsteps. My mother was a food service director for a major Los Angeles hospital and my uncle was a successful restaurateur. My "boot camp" started as a bartender's apprentice at a hip L.A. nightclub when I was 19 and a few years later I was hired on as the General Manager at St. Mark's at the Beach in Venice, CA.
TOP GM: It might sound cliché, but Morton's is the best company to work for. Not only is it the best restaurant anywhere, the people I get to work with everyday are as driven and passionate as I am. I originally joined the company in 1994 as an Assistant Manager for Morton's in Costa Mesa, California then was promoted to General Manager of Morton's Sacramento in 1996 and later transferred to Southfield then Troy, Michigan.
AWARD WINNER: I'm very proud of the awards my restaurants and staff have won including the Service Excellence Award (Morton's Costa Mesa); two Training Restaurant of the Year Awards and the Service Excellence Award (Morton's Southfield). I recently took home the "2011 GM of the Year" which I personally compare to winning an Academy Award. It's a huge career highlight for me.
SALMON ADVICE: 1.) Always do the right thing. If you have to ask yourself, then it's probably not. 2.) If you make people feel like they're your partner in business, they will be. 3.) Never sacrifice your company's brand and protect it at all costs.
THREE WORDS THAT BEST DESCRIBE ME: Relentless, driven, and consistent.
FAVORITE TRAVEL DESTINATION: Lake Tahoe, I can't get there enough. Maybe we'll open a Morton's there.
POWER SUIT: Blue pinstripes with a cranberry-colored tie.
WHEN I'M NOT WORKING, I'M…: Doing chores at home.
ONE THING I'VE BEEN DYING TO TRY: Parachuting.
SIGNATURE COCKTAIL: Labatt Blue Light Beer.
I STAY HOME TO WATCH: My wonderful children.
FAVORITE PLACE TO DE-STRESS: On the lake in my boat.
FAVORITE GETAWAY TO CHILL OUT: Morton's annual General Managers Conference.
PRIZED POSSESSION: My boat.
ADJECTIVE TO DESCRIBE MY MOOD: Outgoing.
WHOM I MOST ADMIRE: Klaus Fritsch, Morton's Co-Founder and Vice Chairman.
PROUDEST ACCOMPLISHMENT: Being named "Morton's General Manager of the Year" by my peers in 2011.
FINISH THIS SENTENCE…The best part of being me is…: I am incredibly happy and secure in who I am and what I've become.
Are you ready to take your career to the next level? Consider a rewarding restaurant and hospitality job at Morton's The Steakhouse! Be More. Be Morton's.

Relativity visualizedPerfect for those interested in physics but who are not physicists or mathematicians, this book makes relativity so simple that a child can understand it. By replacing equations with diagrams, the book allows non-specialist readers to fully understand the concepts in relativity without the slow, painful progress so often associated with a complicated scientific subject. It allows readers not only to know how relativity works, but also to intuitively understand it. |

havent eaten gluten for 12 months, until yesterday, as l have to do the 6 week thing and eat gluten, so l thought to myself, l really need to know ....
my dietition says it would be easier to work out what the problem is if we can rule out coeliac
l get really annoyed that l was never tested
cos now l have to feel like this, lm not sure if its gluten or some other type of intolerance????
it was so hard to eat gluten again, it was like putting cyanide in my mouth!
lm not sure if lm doing the right thing, my gastro said he didnt want me living as a coeliac if l didnt need to be, l know other things make me ill as well so lm confused...
what l do know is that l felt ok yesterday, 1st day of eating gluten, but today l feel really nauseous...yuk...
l dont know if l can do this????
l could be doing all this for nothing???
l get really depressed when l get ill and struggle not knowing what it is thats making me sick,

Museums and Attractions
AllihiesBeara PeninsulaCorkRepublic of Ireland
Allihies Copper Mine Museum is housed in the old Methodist church, in Allihies County Cork, which served the Cornish miners who were drafted in to work the mines in the 1800's. The history of copper mining in the Allihies region began in the Bronze Age and ended in the twentieth century. The Museum tells the story of the lives of the miners and the technologies they employed, using interactive media as well as original exhibits. Various nineteenth century machines powered by steam and water are depicted in detail, along with pumping equipment and an ingenious 'Man Engine' which carried the miners a long way down to the depths of the mines. From maps of the various underground workings one can gain an idea of the enormous extent of their endeavours. Information on the geology unique to the area is accompanied by some excellent geological exhibits. There is a section devoted to the Cornish community, and another to those Allihies miners who left to work in Butte, Montana, where substantial mining operations evolved. Many of today's Butte residents bear the same surnames as Allihies families. Daphne du Maurier based her book 'Hungry Hill' on the Puxley family, who owned the Allihies mines in the nineteenth century and the story of the real people is no less fascinating. A more scholarly history of the mines was written by R A Williams ('The Berehaven Copper Mines'). The original nineteenth century Cost Books are on display, these give some interesting insights into the lives of the miners and the hardships they endured. There is a café on the premises and an Art Gallery that hosts temporary rotating exhibits of works from the area's vibrant artistic community. The substantial sandy beach of Ballydonegan, formed by particles washed down from the mines on the mountain above, can be seen from the Café windows. The Copper Mine Trail is a fascinating marked walking route that takes in the mines, man-made reservoirs, gunpowder magazine and Ballydonegan Beach, and offers spectacular mountain and sea views. Maps are available at the Museum.

Boo Hoo, Rondo Misses Perk
Don't cry for Rondo, New York. Courtesy of Red's Army, a Celtics blog, we learn what we already knew, that Rondo misses Kendrick Perkins and it's affecting his game. On the show, The Association, which features the Celtics, Rondo lets us know that it's also the off-court absence that he feels the most, especially during road trips where he misses his running buddy. It's impossible to feel sorry for the crafty guard -- instead it sounds like it's time to show him why he'll miss him even more on the court during a brief post-season stint and a longer off-season than the Knicks will enjoy.

Are you a fresh graduate in the Philippines who is looking to apply for your first job? So are hundreds of thousands of other graduates. In order to get the job and the company you want you need to have a distinct edge over your competition. You need to show your prospective employ that you are not only the right person for the job— like so many others are— but that you are the best person for the job.
There are numerous ways by which you can get this all important edge, one of which is by joining job application seminars sponsored by famous companies, top universities, or government agencies. By participating in these seminars you will be tough how to do well in various aspects of your application process. For example, you will be taught how to write the perfect resume that employers will fall in love with.
Also, various seminars will give you the latest tips and tricks on how to nail your job interviews. They will not only provide you with notes on what to wear and samples on the different questions that may be asked of you and how you should respond to these. You will also be given the chance to undergo mock job interviews in which a real executive from a real company will be present to interview you and give you feedback as regards your performance.
You may be thinking of just reading online sources on how to apply for jobs. However, you will learn much more from real professionals and experts on job application matters. Once you have the perfect resume, you can submit these to the companies you wish to apply for through their official websites. Most companies prefer to receive online resumes nowadays because it saves them time and office space.
Meanwhile, you should not only submit it to the companies you want to apply to, but you should upload it to job search databases as well. The advantage of submitting your resume to these websites is that you are assured that the companies which contact you for interview are already interested in hiring you.
Two examples of famous job search databases in the Philippines are jobstreet.com and jobsdb.com. For these websites the first thing you need to do is register for an account on their websites. After doing this, you will be able to submit your resume to their online database. Once you have done this you can send this resume to any and all of the companies that are looking for employees through these job databases.
As long as your resume remains on these databases any company, even if you haven't applied to them, can contact you to see if you are interested in working for them. Thus, you don't have to manually submit your resume to each and every company you wish to work for. Again, an excellently written resume will give you edge over your competition. These websites usually offer occasional job application seminars of their own. They also offer job fairs both online and offline. In an online job fair your resume is automatically sent to all participating companies.
In this day and age, the internet is a powerful tool for job-seekers. Submitting resumes can be done online through job search engines and through the official websites of the company themselves. You no longer need to waste ink and paper on printing resumes. You need not spend on postage fees. All you need is a fast and reliable internet connection and a well written resume to land a job interview for the company of your choice.

Dear Editor,
I opened up my newspaper and was disturbed by the pictures shown of the calender to raise money for prostate cancer [Fake 'stache raises coin for prostate cancer, Nov. 6, TIMES]. It is not appropriate to show these kinds of pictures in a family newspaper that is brought into our homes.
I have three sons I am raising to not view women as objects of desire, but as ones to treasure and to treat in a honorable way. It was not necessary to show so many pictures of these women mostly undressed. One of the pictures might have been okay, but the majority were in poor taste.
You may call it sassy, but it is still presented in a sexual manner that is distasteful to me as a woman. Please refrain from using this kind of promotion to help charities.
Thankfully, I was able to tear the page out before the rest of my family was able to flip through the pages.

Remove Images Coconut Wireless This Week in Review October 12, 2006 WEDNESDAY, Oct. 4Governor Linda Lingle loves to talk about how her administration offers "economic incentives" to television and movie companies to come to Hawai`i—incentives like 15-20 percent refundable tax credits. What she doesn't like to say is she's perfectly happy keeping those tax credits a secret from the taxpayers who ultimately have to pay for them. "Film and TV production companies get an estimated $28 million in tax credits annually in Hawai`i, but the state will not release the names of the companies benefiting from the program," reports the Honolulu Advertiser today. According to the paper, state officials insist that saying who benefits from the tax credits would hurt the poor production companies. "The productions would have a problem making the information public—particularly their financial information—for competitive reasons," Hawai`i Film Commissioner Donne Dawson said in the story. And by all means, we must protect the loyal, valiant film production companies. If we didn't bow down to their every whim, bend over for their every request, they might just pack up their cameras, lunch wagons and incredibly hot actors and go film elsewhere, like Canada or Australia or that one Tahitian island Marlon Brando used to own. THURSDAY, Oct. 5On this, the National Day of Resistance against George W. Bush's war in Iraq, well over a hundred people braved the heat and humidity to march from Maui Community College to the state office building in Wailuku. It was a festive, eclectic bunch, too—though I'm not sure what the guy dressed like a Footlocker salesman was trying to say—all marching up Main Street as they chanted and banged on drums and carried signs saying "Bring Them All Home," "Maui For Peace" and "Torture Is Evil." And I'm proud to say that I joined them, though by "joined them" I really mean "watched them from a table near the window of Main St. Bistro while dining on a fried chicken sandwich with mac salad while they yelled and chanted and cheered in front of the Main Street Promenade." Isn't freedom wonderful? Of course, there will be some naysayers out there—and don't think that I don't know who you are—who will describe my actions as "lazy," "useless" and perhaps even "lazy"—oh, wait, I said that already. Anyway, they'll say I sat by and did nothing while good, hard-working people took time off from work to march in the hot, hot sun and show their contempt for a war gone mad. But what these people don't know is that I had to sit in that restaurant for nearly an hour waiting for the marchers to pass by. In a hard wooden chair, too! And to top it all off, my chicken sandwich was kind of hot and rather messy and I didn't have nearly enough napkins! Who made the bigger sacrifice now? Sherman was right—war is all hell. FRIDAY, Oct. 6Speaking of war, we've got both good and bad news in today's Honolulu Star-Bulletin. In a victory for state environmentalists, Earthjustice and attorney/failed Democratic Lt. Gov. candidate David Henkin, a three-judge panel of the 9th U.S. Circuit Court of Appeals in San Francisco ruled that the U.S. Army violated environmental laws when it brought a Stryker Combat Brigade to Oahu and the Big Island. The ruling was quite harsh, ordering the army to "cease all Stryker-related activities." Now the army reacted exactly as you'd think the army would react: they pledged to comply with the preceding court decision that ruled they could do as they wished with the Stryker armored vehicles, yet they also promised to "take action as appropriate" with the new decision. The army had insisted that they needed to operate the Strykers—which are larger and better armed than armored cars but smaller than tanks—in Hawai`i because of the jungle terrain, but the appeals judges didn't buy it, noting that the weapons were designed to fight in cities. Is it any wonder Republicans want to chop up the 9th District? Celebration though, should be short-lived, because the Star-Bulletin also reported that Congressmen Neil Abercrombie (D, Hawai`i) and John Murtha (D, Illinois) announced yesterday that because the war in Iraq is going so well for the insurgents, death squads and terrorists that the President Bush will have to call up every National Guard unit we have to deal with it. You know, unless Bush would be willing to end the war. That could happen, right? SATURDAY, Oct. 7Yeah, that'll happen about the same time Bush starts speaking in complete sentences. SUNDAY, Oct. 8Fascinating Associated Press story in today's Maui News about a new state Tax Review Commission report on the failure of Hawai`i's technology tax credit—the most generous of any state in the Union—to create any jobs. Since 2001, the state has handed out $185 million in tax credits to encourage companies to set up shop in the state and bring in lots of high paying, high tech jobs. Like most corporate welfare, this credit apparently hasn't done a bit of good for anyone but the corporations themselves. In fact, the study shows the number of high tech jobs in the state dropping 2.7 percent between 2001 and 2004. The study's authors seem mildly surprised by this, even though the AP reported that, "companies don't have to create jobs to receive the credit." MONDAY, Oct. 9Today the Sierra Club's Hawaii chapter surprised no one by endorsing Democrat Mazie Hirono in the Second District race. But what is surprising is that I've yet to receive some ridiculously inflammatory email from the National Republican Congressional Committee using this news to question Hirono's patriotism, willingness to cut taxes, etc. Guess they're too busy dealing with the question of whether news of recently disgraced Congressman Mark "Maf54" Foley (R, Floriduh) will completely trash any hopes of the GOP retaining their grip on the U.S. Congress. TUESDAY, Oct. 10Hehe grip. Anthony Pignataro thanks you for asking. MTW |

text: Bob; a funny coincidence; I'm watching the Lehrer News Hour and they talked about the phrase "best and brightest". It apparently came into political usage in the book of that title by David Halberstam. The commentators (Mark Shields and David Brooks) said that the phrase was used sarcastically by Halberstam, and if the Obama team had read the book, they wouldn't use that phrase to describe their team. Lynn Wigglesworth >Look at what has happened now. All of these great minds -- the best and the brightest-- have destroyed our economy and our culture. Cost us trillions and trillions. They are the biggest losers in history; the biggest thieves in history; the worst human parasites in history. \\

Watch those gutters. This looks like two pages. So don't allign the gutters so evenly. Try to lay them like bricks. Off just a little so the eye knows where to go.
Also, try to mix up the shots a bit more. You have two pull back shots- creating a jump cut. Two zoom in shots that aren't zoomed in from the previous panel. And three more wide shots.
The second panel, I don't like the samurai being on the left. The first panel, he's on the left, the close up shot of him appears that he's on the left facing right. I really can't tell what's going on in the fifth panel. The sixth, I think you should show the hand holding the gun.
On a side note, the first panel doesn't show his eye patch. And the next few panels he does. It kind of adds to the jumpcut in the first two panels.
Also, that dismembered arm looks too stiff and un-natural.
So remember to mix up your shot zooms, but don't go crazy with different angles. Watch your panel to panel transitions.

Fourth graders have secret lives too: animators, chefs, artists, herpetologists, tennis players, etc. Today's post is from Florida teacher, Lee Kolbert, who recently used video conferencing to arrange a meeting between her fourth graders and our beloved Secret Lifer, Erika Ebbel. (And see our update below with Lee on TV!)
What do growing crystals, measuring centipedes, and Butt Glue have in common? They are among the many things my students learned about last week while videoconferencing with "Secret Life of Scientists" celeb, Erika Ebbel. Most kids imagine scientists to be rather geeky, with their entire day's schedule filled with test tubes and data charts but the "Secret Life" series does a great job of breaking that stereotype by profiling successful scientists who are also jugglers, extreme athletes, rock stars, foot photographers, and beauty queens! Yes, beauty queens! And so, Erika is an MIT graduate, current biochemist, and a beauty queen who won Miss Massachusetts in 2004. So, when I was approached to blog about Erika, my response was, "How about a videoconference instead?" What a great opportunity for my 4th graders to learn something about stereotypes and science at the same time.
The timing was actually perfect because we were in the midst of our Science Fair projects. So, I figured, why not encourage the students to ask Erika questions pertaining to their projects (in addition to any other questions they may have). The students and I prepared by watching Erika's videos from the site and having some brief discussions in class.
Erika visits Lee's classroom Friday arrived and my students had never been so quiet and well behaved! They sat excitedly as I launched my web browser and then we saw Erika pop in! They were so excited! They loved seeing her "in-person" and they loved the fact that she could also see them.
After a brief introduction where Erika spoke about her background, how she got involved with the "Secret Life of Scientists" series, and what she is currently working on, a few of my students got their chance to stand before the camera and speak directly to Erika.
"How can I measure centipedes without getting bit?"
"How can I be sure I'm applying the same force to my hovercraft each time I give it a push?"
"How long does Butt Glue last?"
"What do people want to talk to you about the most, beauty pageants or science?"
"What was the first Science Fair project you won?"
The fourth graders talk with Erika Ebbel Erika spoke about many of the challenges she faced in pageant competition as well as with her own Science Fair experiments which, as it turned out, were not unlike some of the challenges my students are facing with their own experiments. Speaking with great ease, Erika answered my students' questions, elaborated beautifully giving thoughtful anecdotes, and gave us all a lot to think about.
Bringing Erika into my class was a great experience for my students in so many ways. Beyond the obvious of getting to talk to a real-live scientist and beauty pageant queen (try that with a textbook), my students really enjoyed the "Secret Life" premise and have now created their own "Secret Life of Students" profiles where they wrote 3rd person articles about themselves and their areas of expertise. This has given us all a chance to get to know each other better and some of my more shy students an opportunity to shine.
Some of my students even posted on their own blogs about the experience. Additionally, I posted about it on my class blog, hoping to inspire other educators to do something similar.
Thank you Erika, for taking the time with my class and inspiring my students to work hard, be resourceful, and not give up. Thank you also to Karen Laverty and Tom Miller who helped facilitate the entire project.
The SLoS Team sends along huge thanks to both Lee and Erika! And you can learn more about Erika's ongoing work with children by visiting Whiz Kids.
UPDATE: Here's more from Lee:

The movie "X-Men: First Class" premiered on June 3rd, 2011 here in the United States. Unfortunately, I wasn't able to see the movie when I wanted to. However, I recently was able to see the movie. Hey better late than never right? I've been an X-Men fan since I was a child. I would wake up early on Saturday mornings to watch the cartoon. For a while, I even purchased some of the comic books. I loved all four of the previous X-Men movies, and I own them all on DVD. It's no secret that I was looking very forward to seeing this movie. So how did it do in my opinion? Here are my thoughts.
I would have to say that "X-Men: First Class" is the best movie I've seen this summer. It definitely surpassed my expectations. "X-Men: First Class" gives us a look at how the X-Men were formed. It also shows how Professor Charles Xavier, played by James McAvoy, and Erik Lensherr, who later becomes the powerful Magneto meet and become colleagues. Lensherr is portrayed by actor Michael Fassbender. The movie also shows the history of other popular characters in the X-Men universe such as: Beast, Mystique, Havok, Emma Frost, and a host of others. There is also an awesome cameo made by one of the most popular mutants in the X-Men world. I won't spoil it for those who haven't seen the movie. As great as this movie is, I had a couple of problems with it.
So what problems did I have with this film? Well for one the continuity in the storyline. This movie doesn't really seem to connect to the previous X-Men movies. True enough this movie is a prequel, but the way it ends doesn't coincide with the other movies. In the movie "X-Men: The Last Stand", which was released in 2006, there was a scene in the beginning that shows both an aged Xavier and Lensherr still as colleagues. This took place before the actual present, but they were obviously older. At the end of "X-Men: First Class", they obviously go their separate ways because of their differences. However, they are both still young men compared to their older versions in the previous film. There were also a couple of other storyline problems I had with this movie. I won't mention them, as they contribute greatly to the movie.
Overall I would rate this movie 5/5. A great storyline, despite the continuity, and solid action and effects definitely make this movie great. In my opinion it outperformed both Transformers and Captain America. It appears that they are rebooting the X-Men franchise, and this movie is a great start.
This is an excellent review. That is so cute that you read the comics & saw the cartoons as a little boy. You must be a true fan. Sounds like a good movie. Maybe I should rent it when it comes out on DVD if it hasn't come out already. Lately, I've been seeing a lot of kids dressed like Harry Potter at the movies.
Great review. You are really into X men. I look forward to seeing the movie.
Really great review. You have a knack. I like X-Men.
I really did like the movie; it definitely filled in quite a few gaps that the previously released movies didn't really explain. I remember my uncle, who actually owns all the comics, telling me about what happened, but it was great to actually see it haha. Of course I mean the gaps like why Xavier was in a wheelchair and such. Otherwise, I'm glad you liked the movie!
Nice one!
Great review and well explained.

Butternut Squash Bisque
No, this is not a dessert and yes, everything is okay. I promise to return to the sugar shack as soon as possible.
Believe it or not, I love cooking almost as much as I love baking, almost. And around this time of year, my soup obsession kicks into high gear. Right at the top of that list are soups that involve mushrooms, clams, lots of cream (because a soup isn't a meal if it's made with water), and my favourite fall ingredient, butternut squash!
Did you know that slicing and dicing a butternut squash isn't as difficult as it seems? It's actually quite fun (this is coming from someone who could spend hours shelling walnuts and slicing carrots, so take the word 'fun' with a grain of salt).
How to cut, and peel a butternut squash without killing yourself.
1) Use a sharp knife. A dull knife won't be able to handle the formidable squash. And be sure to cut over a non-slippery surface.
2) Carefully cut off an even slice from the top and the bottom of the squash. (On it's own, the butternut squash is a Weeble-Wobble.)
3) Lay the squash down on it's side (try to find as flat a spot on the squash as possible), slice it in half. Now you're left with a skinny half and a kind of pear-shaped half.
4) Grab the pear-shaped half and stabilize it on that area you sliced away at in step 2. Carefully slice it right down the middle so you're left with 2 long seed-filled halves. Repeat with the skinnier seedless half.
You should now have 4 butternut squash parts. 2 pear-shaped halves and 2 skinnier halves.
5) Using a soup spoon, or any large spoon, scoop out the seeds and stringy pulp (similar to gutting a pumpkin). If you're feeling ambitious, save the seeds for roasting.
6) Now you can peel away the thick skin. Be sure to peel until you get to the bright orange layer (try to get rid of the wispy green veins).
7) Using a sharp knife again, carefully slice the peeled halves into 1-inch chunks.
8) Make a mimosa, you just tackled something that most people hate!
Let's have some soup!
Butternut Squash Bisque
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 yellow onion , cut in half and thinly sliced
1 teaspoon fresh rosemary leaves
1 seeded and peeled, medium-size butternut squash (about 2 pounds) cut into 1-inch chunks
2 cups chicken or vegetable stock
1 cup of whole milk
4 oz of cream cheese
3/4 cup of half & half cream (or whole milk)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
Add the oil to a heavy-bottomed 4-quart saucepan. Add the onion and rosemary. Stirring occasionally, cook over medium-low heat until the onion begins to brown.
Add the squash, stock, and milk.
Bring to just a boil. Reduce to a simmer and cook, stirring occasionally, for about 15 -20 minutes or until the squash is tender (you should be able to easily pierce it with a fork).
Remove the saucepan from the heat and allow the mixture to cool slightly (about 10 minutes).
To puree, you can either use an immersion blender, standard blender, or a food processor. I used a food processor. [Note: If your blender or food processor are small, like mine, you may want to puree a little bit of soup at a time.]
Place the soup into the bowl of your food processor, or blender, and pulse a few times to loosen everything up.
Add the cream cheese (if you're blending half at a time, add only half the cream cheese).
Pulse/puree until smooth and evenly blended. Repeat with remaining soup if you only made half.
Transfer the bisque to a serving bowl or pot. [Note: Well covered, the bisque can be refrigerated for 2 days or frozen for 2 months.]
When you're ready to serve, reheat the bisque and add the cream, salt and pepper. If it's too thick, add a little bit of milk until it thins out to your liking.
Season as desired with extra pepper or freshly grated Parmesan cheese!
Makes 4-6 servings

Bringing style to the 24in TV/Monitor-hybrid market, LG is set to launch its premium DM2752 and M2752 monitors in the UK this July, ideal for those who enjoy watching TV from the corner of their eye whilst on their PC, with the inclusion of dual-HDMI PIP.
Both monitors feature Full HD IPS panels, in-keeping with the range of colour and viewing angles typically found in a high-end TV or professional monitor. Likewise, the TVs include LG's Infinite Surround Sound, which should offer some pretty decent audio for such a small screen. Two HDMI ports are provided, for quick hookup to HD set-top boxes and consoles, with a USB quick-view option for playback of certain multi-media content from USB sources.
With respect to its potential use as a gaming monitor, LG has implemented Smooth Colour Change technology, which it claims eliminates blur from rapid motion scenes, a typical pitfall for IPS-based panels. To top-off matters, the DM variant offers LG's passive 3D technology and features 2D to 3D content up-scaling; what's more, this monitor includes LG's 'Dual Play' technology, which, whilst conceptually very simple, allows two gamers to have individual full-screen experiences much like Sony's PlayStation 3D Display.
With the specs, the looks and even a few new and unique features, LG's DM2752 is shaping up to be one heck of a monitor, certainly something to keep an eye out for as reviews begin to crop up in the next few months.

Usually I'm not ever worried about my kids getting sick. It's pretty rare that any of us do, and if we do it lasts only a day or two. Even then, it's a mild fever and loss of appetite. I mean, I've had the pukes a couple of times, but that was due to bad tacos or something. Other than that, sniffles, headache, and well, all around puny.
Last time I had the actual flu, I was in Jr. High. I started feeling bad around 4th hour. My head slowly got closer to my desk, and by 6th hour choir, I didn't think I was going to make it.
I got off the bus s-l-o-w-l-y and made, what seemed, the long walk down the driveway. My mom remembers this day. From her point of view, she knew it the minute I stepped off the bus.
Slowly, my bag dropped, shoes off, coat off, and to the bathroom to get rid of all I had for lunch.
I was down for well over a week. I actually told my mom I didn't think I would ever feel better. I watched my fair share of Scooby-Doo and The Cosby Show that's for sure. And this before the days of DVR and pause. Times were rough, indeed. To this day, I don't drink Sprite or 7-Up just for kicks. Blech.
So, I just don't want to see my kids go through it. Hand washing has become a norm and the girls snicker about my new found germ phobia. Hey, if I can keep the pukes at bay…I will.
However, if one of the gets it, I'll cover the couch with a nice, cool sheet, place a garbage can by them, find Scooby-Doo or The Cosby Show reruns, and set the DVR for whatever they want. I might even share a nice cold glass of Sprite with them. …. or not.

Impaired driving is one of the oldest criminal code offences relating to operating a motor vehicle, but the social stigma that now attaches to such behaviour is a relatively recent development. It may be hard to believe that announcing 'one for the road' was once considered a clever remark.
When Road Rules first wrote about a new type of auto insurance based on personalized rates for customers willing to allow their insurer to monitor their driving using telematic devices, its potential to inspire widespread safer driving with significant discount rewards seemed an unassailable 'win-win.' Clearly it was a novel carrot-versus-stick approach with little or no downside.
A recent episode of a documentary television series called Parts Unknown showed a visit to Detroit, Michigan that included a tour of the Packard Automotive Plant. Allan Hill, a guide for the tour, reported that he had lived there by himself for the past seven years finding it "as peaceful as the north woods."
A year ago, Road Rules described Canada's road safety plan to 2015 as inviting "all the various jurisdictions with their respective responsibilities for highway safety … to develop their own plans … for ensuring that road fatalities and serious injuries continue … to trend downwards." Recently, in August 2013, British Columbia responded with its own Road Safety Strategy for 2015 and Beyond at http://www.pssg.gov.bc.ca/osmv/shareddocs/RoadSafetyStrategy.pdf.

FIFA Women's U17 World CupSemi-Final3am (GMT), Thursday 13 November 2008Christchurch, New ZealandFull tournament schedule - click hereWatch all the games on Eurosport
England's incredible run to the last four of the World Cup in New Zealand came to an end as North Korea proved too strong to book their spot in the Final.
Lois Fidler's players will take on Germany in the third place play-off on Sunday, and they fully deserve another opportunity on the world stage after some thrilling performances throughout this tournament.
England showed great courage and determination once more against an organised and powerful North Korean side, but this time there would be no glorious comeback akin to their performance against Japan in the quarter-final.
North Korea took the lead against the run of play on 19 minutes when Ho Un Byol made the most of space in the English defence to fire the ball inside Lauren Davey's near post.
Jordan Nobbs came close to levelling the scores before half-time, but it became an uphill task as North Korea doubled their lead shortly before the interval.
Jon Myong Hwa sneaked in to poke home her fourth goal of the tournament from close range, after Kim Un Hyang had scuffed her initial shot.
Hopes were raised of another great English escape when Rebecca Jane scored with 16 minutes remaining, running through on to a Lauren Bruton reverse pass and slotting a side-foot shot beyond Hong Myong Hui.
The dramatic equaliser would not come, and Korea held on to take their place in the Final alongside USA on Sunday.
