The conversation will stream live here.
But the fact that it can be read apart from these larger contexts is no argument that it ought to be or that interpreting it only according to its ancient authors' intentions yields the best reading. Indeed, the very question of authorial intention is enormously complicated when the text has many authors, has been repeatedly redacted, and now forms an integral part of a completed set of books to which many more authors and redactors have contributed. Considering Genesis in isolation inevitably impedes our understanding of the importance of the scriptural canon by which it comes to us.
Ronald Hendel leaves the impression that nowadays the book of Genesis can be handled credibly only by artists, activists, and antiquarians. A fuller study would have to take account of its role in modern Jewish and Christian religious thought, where those who have pondered themes central to Genesis—creation, election, promise and the baffling workings of providence, for example—have made rich and productive use of the book. It would also have to take account of the fact that throughout the world, Genesis is read and expounded in synagogues and churches by and to educated, scientifically literate people. On the question of how we are to understand that important reality, The Book of Genesis: A Biography, illuminating on so many other things, needed to say more.
I have short piece up on the School of Christian Thought's blog. Here's the first paragraph to whet you appetite, click here for the whole thing.
The first time I heard the song must have been as I was weaving in and out of traffic. I was too impatient to wait for the DJ to name to title so with one eye on the road and the other on my phone I shazam'ed it. "Monkey Gone to Heaven" by The Pixies. By far my favorite song from them. Their music is a mix of discordant sound, screaming, and catchy loops; normally not my cup of tea. But anytime someone mixes environmentalism, a great hook, and esoteric Hebrew numerology they've won my heart…wait, hold up–do monkeys really go to heaven?
Marginalia: A Review of Books in History, Theology & Religion releases new reviews on the last Tuesday of the month but in between these times we release interviews or essays as well. So, you might want to check the site periodically to see if anything is new or you can follow us on Facebook or Twitter where we announce new stuff.
Today we released two stellar pieces that you will want to read:
David H. Aaron, Professor of Hebrew Bible & History of Interpretation at Hebrew Union College-Jewish Institute of Religion, Cincinnati, writes on the art of the review essay. He gives very helpful advice to anyone who is thinking about writing this kind of piece.
Brennan Breed, Assistant Professor of Old Testament at Columbia Theological Seminary, examines the reception history of Genesis 3:22-24 in a completely fascinating review essay.
I reviewed Michael Coogan's new A Reader of Ancient Near Eastern Texts for Marginalia. Let me know what you think of it.
This is one of the coolest projects that I've been a part of. We launch on Tuesday. Get ready.

The Marginalia Review of Books (http://themarginaliareview.com), a new international publication in the disciplines along the nexus of history, theology and religion, launches Tuesday, January 29.
Marginalia aims to correct what its Publisher and Editor-in-Chief believes to be a downward spiral. "We want to rehabilitate the ailing book review," said Timothy Michael Law, currently an Alexander von Humboldt Fellow in the Georg-August Universität, Göttingen (Germany). "We are hoping to create a new standard that puts a premium on quality in both style and substance. Penetrating analysis and engaging prose should be held together."
Law says the review is often the genre of academic writing that suffers the most neglect, but that it should receive more attention. "The review is functional as a service to each discipline of the academic community by separating the wheat from the chaff. But it is also an art worth recovering, since it can be the only vehicle that communicates our research to those outside of our specialized societies."
Managing Editors Charles Halton and Anthony Apodaca are also hoping to test the limits of what is possible in academic publishing. Halton said, "Our creativity as scholars should not be limited to the construction of our ideas but should also include the forms of their expression. The web presents us with an opportunity to re-conceptualize the ways in which we package, mediate, and analyze our thoughts." Marginalia will provide space for readers and authors to interact, create digital panel discussions on the most pivotal publications, and publish long form and peer-reviewed essays.
As important as quality and creativity are to Marginalia, General Editor David Lincicum, University Lecturer in New Testament in Oxford, insists that the editors are just as committed to making reviews more discoverable than those in traditional print journals. Joining the open-access movement, Marginalia will publish all content without charging the reader, directly challenging traditional publications that require readers to login from a university network or pay a hefty subscription.
Marginalia's Advisory Board consists of more than thirty of the world's leading scholars in the fields of history, theology and religion, and nearly forty early career scholars serve as Review Editors for the publication.

I'm trying to rethink the ways in which I teach Old Testament introduction and I came up with an assignment that I hope will interest the students:
The Story of Genesis Through the Sistine Chapel
Using the Vatican's interactive guide and virtual tour of the Sistine Chapel ceiling, follow the "Central Stories" which depict Michelangelo's interpretation of Genesis 1-9. Read Genesis 1-9 for yourself and in a two page, double spaced, essay compare and contrast Michelangelo's interpretation of Genesis 1-9 with your own reading. Students might find it helpful to consult the class textbook for this assignment as well.
Interactive Guide: http://mv.vatican.va/3_EN/pages/CSN/CSN_Volta_StCentr.html
Virtual Tour: http://www.vatican.va/various/cappelle/sistina_vr/index.html
I aso made a short video that provides a little introduction to the assignment. Sure it's cheesy and my dog snores in the background but who says education has be so stuffy? As always, let me know what you think.
It's January 2. You've had some nice time off during the holiday season and you've recovered from New Year's Eve. Now it's time that we get back to work. I'm the first to admit that my writing needs improvement. With that in mind, here are four tips to help you and me become better writers in 2013.
In 1688 the first anti-slavery statement was drafted on US soil by Dutch and German Quakers in Germantown, Pennsylvania. Then, 150 years ago Abraham Lincoln read the Emancipation Proclamation that brought to an end legal slavery in the United States. Yet, blacks continued to suffer under many forms of oppression from lynching mobs to Jim Crow laws. While history books typically say that Jim Crow ended in 1965 with the Voting Rights Act which outlawed discriminatory voting laws, in many ways Jim Crow still exists but in different forms.
In The New Jim Crow Michelle Alexander outlines how "by targeting black men through the War on Drugs and decimating communities of color, the U.S. criminal justice system functions as a contemporary system of racial control—relegating millions to a permanent second-class status—even as it formally adheres to the principle of colorblindness."
As we begin the new year, 150 years after the scourge of slavery was officially brought to an end (although by some estimates there are currently 20.9 million worldwide victims of slavery), I think it would be beneficial to reflect on how our perceptions, actions, political positions, and so on serve to create an environment in which all members of our society can flourish or whether we are creating structures that actively suppress and repress significant portions of our society.
It is all the more important that people of religious conviction reflect on these topics. To be sure, religious individuals and communities often were early and strong proponents for ending slavery, righting injustices, and supporting the oppressed. Yet, often times religion was used in efforts to keep blacks enslaved and to spread mortal fear within black communities long after the Emancipation Proclamation. As James Cone has shown in the Cross and the Lynching Tree, whites used the symbol most closely associated with Christianity, and even Jesus himself, the cross, to strike terror in the hearts of black communities as they left crosses burning in yards and limp dark bodies swinging in the trees.
Thankfully, it is now rare indeed to encounter burning crosses but as Michelle Alexander has shown there are structures and policies which work to repress blacks and other minorities. This fact should be abhorrent to anyone who has an interest in the Hebrew Bible. The biblical prophets often saved their most scathing comments for people who participated in and supported structures like this. When the prophets encountered these situations they often called for the wholesale destruction of the present power structures and called upon God and his people to create a new and just order in their place.
One such prophet was Amos. And maybe Amos is a good place for us to begin our reflection this new year. To that end, John Barton has written a nice, brief book on the theology of Amos that would be a helpful complement to our study:
For the biblical prophets, policies that create enslavement are forces of evil in the world. And those who work to perpetuate these policies are complicit in this evil. People who are a part of a religious community that holds the Bible dear do not have the option of keeping quiet in the face of these realities. For instance, the Babylonian Talmud says that if someone remains silent even though they had an ability to speak then they will be punished:
Whoever is able to protest against the transgressions of his own family and does not do so is punished [liable, held responsible] for the transgressions of his family. Whoever is able to protest against the transgressions of the people of his community and does not do so is punished for the transgressions of his community. Whoever is able to protest against the transgressions of the entire world and does not do so is punished for the transgressions of the entire world (Shabbat 54b).
And, Jesus reiterates the Golden Rule to "Do unto others as you would have them do to you" (Luke 6:31).
I think 2013 presents a strong challenge to the American Christian community in particular. For far to long many of us have used our positions within society to ensure our continued economic and social dominance. We have enjoyed a comfortable life on the backs of others. But, do we care about following the prophetic model that we see in the Hebrew Scriptures of challenging societal structures that oppress and enslave? Do we care about following Jesus's teachings to love others and work towards systems that will benefit them just as they benefit us? And, how will we vote in 2013 and in the future? Will we continue to support politicians and policies that create a new Jim Crow or will we rediscover a biblical vision of peace and justice for all?
If you are interested in learning about ancient Mesopotamia it's hard to do better than A. Leo Oppenheim's classic book, Ancient Mesopotamia: Portrait of a Dead Civilization. The University of Chicago has now made it freely available as a pdf download. Happy reading.

-- grim discovery at a Los Angeles hotel and we have to warn you this story is disturbing.
The -- the body of missing Canadian terrorist -- lamb has been found.
Inside the rooftop water tank at the historic Cecil hotel.
A maintenance worker discovered her body after guests complained about low water pressure.
It turns out that was the least of their problems.
Tourists staying at the hotel they need to brush their teeth and drank water from the tank in which this woman's body was decomposing they -- for weeks.
One terrorist saying quote we thought the water tasted funny.
Officials are now analyzing the water for any possible health risks to the people who consumed.
The 21 year old woman disappeared three weeks ago and she was last seen in this hotel surveillance video right here.
Showing her acting strangely inside of an elevator.
Pushing buttons sticking their head in and out of the doors.
And what appears to be hiding in one corner.
Police are now working to determine whether her death was the result of foul play or just an accident.
And to figure out how she wound up where she wound up.
An autopsy is scheduled for today.

Finally, a meatball sandwich that's more meatball than bread. This version adds ricotta cheese to meatballs, marinara sauce and Tillamook Shredded Italian Blend Cheese. Served on a pedestal of butter-grilled sourdough bread.
"This is the meatball sandwich named after the coolest meatball I know, my dog Morton. Adding a little extra cheesy taste and texture, this sandwich incorporates a fairly untraditional sandwich cheese, Ricotta. Enjoy with an Italian soda, like an arranciata." – Matt Breslow of the Grilled Cheese Grill
2 eggs
3 tablespoons garlic, minced
2/3 cup of Italian-style breadcrumbs
2 lbs (32 oz) ground beef
Olive oil
Salt and pepper
8 slices of sourdough bread
2 cups (16 oz) marinara sauce
2 cups (8 oz) Tillamook® Shredded Italian Blend Cheese
1 cup ricotta cheese
Tillamook® Salted Butter
Preheat oven to 400°F.
Make the Meatballs
Crack eggs into a small mixing bowl and scramble. Add fresh minced garlic, salt and pepper and mix thoroughly to de-clump the garlic. Add breadcrumbs and mix evenly. Put on a pair of kitchen gloves and mix meat directly into the mixture. Knead thoroughly, then place golf ball-sized balls onto a greased sheet pan. Once balls are on the pan, brush each with a little olive oil. This will help them crisp up in the oven.
Bake meatballs in the oven for about 10 minutes, take them out, flip them over, and cook for another 5 minutes. Once meatballs are cooked through, remove from oven.
Heat up a skillet to medium-high. Slice your meatballs into thirds, and mix them in the skillet with your marinara sauce until each meatball is coated with sauce.
Assemble the Sandwiches
Heat a counter top griddle or frying pan to medium-high heat. Spread ricotta onto half of the slices of bread. Brush melted butter onto the backsides of all slices of bread, and begin browning the bread butter-side down on the grill. Scatter Tillamook Italian Blend Shredded Cheese onto the plain side. Add salt and pepper to the ricotta cheese for flavor. If you have large pot lids, place them over the slices of bread to help the cheese melt faster.
Stir the meatball marinara mixture and make sure sauce is thoroughly heated. Spoon the meatballs onto the ricotta sides of the bread. Once Tillamook Italian Blend Cheese is melted, close your sandwiches. Press the sandwich together with the backside of a spatula to help form the sandwich. The bread should be well-browned (not burnt) by now, but if not, allow it to continue browning.
Once they're done, pull from the griddle, cut, and enjoy!

About Superbird
The short-lived Plymouth Superbird was a highly modified edition of the company's Road Runner model. Developed by Plymouth specifically for NASCAR racing, this car was considered distinctive by some folks and downright ugly by many others, mostly because of the staggeringly tall rear spoiler and the fact that this car was about 18 feet in length.
In 1970, Plymouth took their Road Runner car, gave it several aerodynamic treatments and created the Plymouth Superbird. The Superbird might have been a little slow at top speeds compared to its rivals, but the horn sounded like the Warner Brother's Road Runner cartoon character and the car featured Road Runner graphics, both of which definitely gave the car a fun vibe.
This car was designed to replicate the racing success of the Dodge Daytona, so the engineers adopted many of the factors that made the Daytona so successful on the racetrack. The Superbird's main competitor on the track that year was the Ford Torino Talledega.
Plymouth specifically created the Superbird to be used in car races, but NASCAR required that the car makers also make a specific number of racecar models available to the public. So, Plymouth produced 1,920 Superbirds for their dealers to sell to the general public.
The increased emissions regulations put forth by the government combined with higher insurance rates for high-performance cars meant that Plymouth only manufactured the Road Runner Superbird that one year.
The Plymouth Superbirds were offered with three different engine options. Only 135 models came with a 426 Hemi V8, likely because it was more expensive to produce than the other options, so Plymouth only made enough to meet the minimum requirement. The Superbird also came with a 440 Super Commando 4-barrel engine and a 440 Super Commando 6-barrel engine.
The street version of the Superbird featured a smoothed-out body, a refined nosecone and retractable headlights constructed from fiberglass. The cars also featured decals of the Road Runner cartoon character holding a racing helmet. The public either loved or hated the looks of this car.
The Superbird came with an optional Air Grabber hood that could be lowered and raised with a remote control. The stock speed was 180 miles-per-hour and came with a standard three-speed transmission, although a four-speed transmission was available as an option.
Although many car enthusiasts feel that the Plymouth Road Runner Superbird's looks have not really improved over the years, these cars are now highly collectible vehicles. The average cost of these cars runs about $150,000 today.

The late fall seems to be the busy season for opening grocery stores in Langley.
On Wednesday, Dec. 5, the first Langley outlet of the Your Independent Grocer chain will open at the Willoughby Town Centre shopping plaza on 208th Street just south of 80th Avenue.
The town centre is still under construction this week, with workers planting trees and working on the exterior of the buildings.
Eventually, the complex will include condos, commercial areas and office buildings. A liquor store, daycare, and seniors facility was just approved for another part of the complex (see inset story).
The Hakam's Your Independent Grocer is a 28,000 square foot store that will be open daily from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Franchisee Hakam Cheema has 15 years of grocery experience, he said.
"I know many people in our community were curious about this store opening, and I'm excited to introduce to them this new store," Cheema said in a statement.
For the opening on Dec. 5, there will be a ribbon cutting, cake and refreshments of customers, free food sampling, and free giveaways to the first 500 customers.
A truck with the Your Independent Grocer logo is expected to be in the area prior to the opening handing out hot chocolate and takeaway items.
In Fort Langley, the Lee's Market is getting closer to opening. A replacement for the Lee family's IGA, which stood on the corner of Mavis Avenue and Glover Road for decades, the new store has been rebranded and will open on Dec. 9.
Owner Robert Lee said there will definitely be a ceremony of some kind.
"It's been a long wait for everybody," Lee said.
Two years ago, the former Fort IGA burned to the ground, after someone tried to cut through bars on a window to break in.
The fire left the Fort without a grocery store.
Lee had hoped to open the store in late November but pushed back the date slightly.
Right now, staff are already stocking the store with some dry goods, and the rest of the produce and meat will arrive at the last minute, no more than two or three days before the store opens.

The commentary of Drs Potter and Paul, on whether anti-depressants really work, is interesting and disturbing. I have great respect for both of these fine doctors. I believe that antidepressants have a role in clinical practice but they are grossly over-utilized. As a certified psychopharmacologist, practitioner of Whole Psychiatry (Functional Medicine and traditional psychiatry), and Clinical Professor of Psychiatry at Georgetown School of Medicine, I see several problems with the logic employed.
First, Drs Potter and Paul state that antidepressants (AD's) work for "at least 20% of patients on an initial trial". The challenge is to "separate patients who really need a drug from those who will respond to placebo". This means that some part of this 20% is placebo response. Probably 30-50% in an average trial is placebo, according to Drs Potter and Paul. This means that the actual non-placebo responders are less than 20%--so, by implication closer to 10-15% of the people given an anti-depressant in an initial trial are non-placebo responders, meaning they are responding to the drug, not the placebo effect. That is a pretty small slice. There are ways of improving this number (therapy, thyroid augmentation, multiple drugs), but clearly the drugs are missing the mark for most of the people most of the time.
They go on to defend this state of affairs by saying that these numbers are "similar to that for many other classes of drugs". I believe that is true, but that is not an excuse for antidepressants, but rather an indictment of our "one pill for every ill" society. We rely on drugs rather than deal with root causes, and the pills generally are not as effective as we would be led to believe by the pharmaceutical companies incessant ads and research (publically acknowledged as distorted in peer reviewed journals such as NEJM, Eric Turner, 2008). Nor are these drugs with out financial costs and side effects. The solution they suggest is to devote more research time and dollars to develop lab tests to predict who will respond to medications. That is a reasonable idea, but given this era of tight budgets, it seems like too little bang for the buck. At best, after much more research we will be able to identify the 10-15% of people who do respond to medication.
I suggest that the solution is to develop better assessments of the metabolic factors leading to the syndrome of depression. The psycho-social-spiritual risk factors are reasonably well spelled out, and we have excellent targeted psychotherapeutic techniques available now. However, Dr's Potter and Paul have a case of what I call 'neurocentric psychiatry'. The model Dr Potter and Paul live by is based on the assumption that the biological answers to depression reside within the brain. I suggest that the fact that the head and brain are connected to the body by something called the neck may be relevant. In fact, there is a great deal of basic science and a good deal of clinical science indicating the very significant role played in subjective and objective mental health by at least six metabolic systems: nutrition, gastrointestinal physiology, immune/inflammatory/infectious processes, methylation processes, oxidative stress, and all hormonal systems. This list excludes other factors such as circulatory problems, physical-structural problems, age, gender, and lifestyle factors.
Assessing these metabolic systems, and their mediators in a careful comprehensive manner, and re-establishing multi-system reserves not only helps depression with less medication, but at the same time reduces the side effect burden imposed by medication, and reduces the incidence of known co-morbidities such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, osteoporosis, sexual dysfunction.
The challenge in this day and age is not to find a way to make the drugs work better, find better drugs, or find out who will respond to drugs but rather to take a broad picture of mood disorders, one that acknowledges the fact that depression is part of a web which reaches to all levels of physiology, family, and society. The depression epidemic (depression will be the leading cause of disability by 2020 according to the World Health Organization) will not be stopped by drugs.
The treatment of most of the chronic illnesses bankrupting our health care system, including but not limited to depression, is fundamentally the same: good nutrition; normalizing gastrointestinal physiology; treating immune/inflammatory/infectious dysfunction; diagnosing and treating methylation processes (which affect many neurotransmitter systems); normalizing oxidative stress and detoxification pathways; assessing and regulating hormonal systems. All of this needs to be done in the context of strong community and relational functioning. With limited resources approaching this comprehensive multi-faceted model should be our goal—not simply figuring out who will respond to which drug. Psychopharmacology is only one small tool in our toolbox. As Confucius once said, "To do good work, one must first have good tools." Anti-depressants are somewhat useful tools; they are just not the best or the only ones. We have other tools at our disposal. Why not use them? Robert J. Hedaya, MD, DFAPA

One Direction - Take Me Home
by One Direction
Catalogue Number: 256-3057
Release Date: 11/11/12
Product Details
If you thought boy-band days were over, One Direction is the one band that can make you change your mind. The sophomore record from these X-Factor idols, Take Me Home, is now available from Tesco, and parades some of the catchiest tunes that British pop has seen in over a decade. Looking up to 90s influences such as N'Sync and Backstreet Boys, this is a more mature, complex and modern album that has earned widespread critical approval and immediately started climbing charts around the world. With the first single, Live While We're Young, boasting the highest-ever opening week billboard sales figures by a non-US artist, this record is the ultimate proof that One Direction are becoming the new kings of 21st century pop.

Five days after moving into our first house, my husband and I went to the Animal Humane Society to see a 6-year-old adorable cat I saw online. However, as soon as we walked in the front door, this little guy started showing off, goofing off, and banging his head against the gate of his cage. He walked back and forth across his cage following us wherever we went in the room. He was so cute and had a whole group around his cage but he literally kept watching my husband and I. With determination we pulled ourselves from going to see him and went to find the cat we came to see. She was wonderful and oh so sweet, but it was obvious we were a perfect match for Owen! We found out he was acting so silly due to the surgery he had done that day. However, he is still goofy to this day and that is why we love him! He is wonderful, sweet, and truly knows he is one of the family. We couldn't be happier! They say you should let an animal choose you and he sure did!
In the picture: One of Owen's favorite parts of the day is hiding in the covers as I try to make the bed!

WildlifeDirect is a Kenya and US registered charitable organization founded and chaired by African conservationist Dr Richard Leakey, who is credited with putting an end to the elephant slaughter in Kenya in the 1980s. Its main office is located in Nairobi, Kenya.
WildlifeDirect was established in 2006 to provide support to conservationists in Africa directly on the ground via the use of blogs, which enables anybody, anywhere to play a direct and interactive role in the survival of some of the world's most precious species.
WildlifeDirect does not take funds on behalf of bloggers, instead we enable all our bloggers to link their blogs to fund raising sites. No administration fee is charged for this. By allowing bloggers to raise funds directly through this website, we ensure that all donations go directly to where it was intended in its entirety. WildlifeDirect however still needs to raise funds for our own operational costs. We invite donors to make a contribution to help run the organization.

After Obama´s covert and overt support of the Muslim Brotherhood (and similar) takeover of Egypt and Libya, the Palestinians and their European supporters apparently figured that they could invade Israel with impunity. They counted on the the cheers of Europe and the passive approval of the Obama Administration to ensure an easy victory. They reckoned without the resolve of Israel.

Putting a better spin on this, perhaps Israel has bigger fish to fry? They have absorbed and depleted much of Hamas´ rocket/missile inventory. The Israelis handled Hamas with despatch. Perhaps this is a defanging of their left flank to ease pressure for the upcoming attack on Iran? The Gaza incident involved primarily the air defense and ground forces, which will play a reduced role in an air attack on Iran. The Israelis will restock their "Iron Dome". The trick will be to deny this to Hamas.Israel foolishly gave Gaza back to the terrorists, likely due to US and "world opinion" pressure. Gained them nothing. Hopefully Israel will reoccupy Gaza after its dust-up with Iran. Screw the world opinion stuff, Israel will never be tolerated by the muzzies or "the world". Click Here if you Like this Comment

Why war in Gaza? Israel, our "Outpost of Freedom" in the Middle East, is : (A) A tiny nation state with a population of only 7,933,200 souls (B) Has an Arab (Muslim, Druze) population of 1,636,600 (20.6%) (C) A land area of less than 9,000 square miles and (D) Is surrounded by over 300,000,000 Arabs intent, for the most part, of wiping the tiny "beacon light of freedom" from the face of the earth!

I think it was completely contrived in order for O and Hillary to look good ´negotiating´ the ceasefire. All part of the plan. Their criminality at Benghazi will never be prosecuted. They will never be held accountable.

This particular flare up started because the Israelis blew up the Hamas military boss.The Israelis blew up the Hamas military boss because he was attacking Israel.The Israelis ceded Gaza because it can not be held (population) and it is impossible to defend militarily (look at the map).Gaza can´t be a Palestinian state because the Israelis are blockading it.The Israelis are blockading it because they don´t want the Palestinians to bring in more weaponry than they already do.The rationale is fairly straight forward and simple.

If you enjoy seafood, then you may have questions about the fish and shellfish you buy, like how it is cultivated and harvested and how these activities impact our waterways. With ongoing media reports and a lot of desire to do what's right for the planet, it's often confusing and difficult to know HOW to make the right choices to support the right efforts.
We want to answer your questions and address these concerns, so the next time you're in the seafood department pick up a copy of our "Always a Good Catch" brochure. It highlights what we've already done—like halting the sale of certain "Red List Species" like Blue Fin Tuna and all species of Shark—and our ongoing efforts to support seafood sustainability across all areas. From employee training and offering sustainable seafood choices, to assessing our vendor's policies and practices regarding seafood, energy, water use, transportation and packaging, we're doing our part to do what's right for our oceans. What do you think of our Sustainable Seafood Policy? Let us know!
Thanks Safeway for making sustainable seafood a choice for consumers! I have participated in Monetery Bay Aquarium's Cooking for Solutions event through my winery for the past five years and continue to be dismayed and challenged by the problem of overfishing. It is a problem that needs consumer understanding and action, and I applaud Safeway for seeing this need on the one hand, and on the other, for making these choices available to those consumers who already are aware and care about this issue. THANK YOU SAFEWAY!
Thank you so much for your comment. That's great that you are doing your part to do what's right for our oceans.
Keep up the good work!
Veronica - This last JUNE, I emailed consumer services to find out why my Safeway store in Klamath Falls, Oregon quit stocking Safeway Select brand, water packed, Tongol Chunk Light Tuna. This was the only brand I would buy. No broth added, low in sodium and great tasting. I have bought this brand for several years. The answer I received was this...."We have researched the Safeway Select Tongol Chunk Light Tuna and found currently, we do not stock this item at stores in your area. However we are forwarding your request and comments to our buyers of Grocery products for their review and consideration."
I wrote back that I KNOW it is not being stocked but please telll my WHY it is not being stocked. Why did it suddenly stop and will it be stocked again????? Can you help me find out?? I have never received any further answer from anyone!
Thank you,
Longing for my old tuna,
Adrienne in Oregon
Adrienne, we apologize for any inconvenience, but after further research we were able to determine that the Tongol Chunk Light Tuna was discontinued due to supply issues. We have forwarded your comments to our Corporate Brands department for further review so they know what qualities you would like to see in our tuna products. We appreciate your feedback.

Citizens to free itself of some condo policies
State-backed Citizens Property insurer agrees with new takeout company on 3,000 condo policies
TALLAHASSEE, Fla. (AP) — The governing board of state-backed Citizens Property Insurance Corp. has approved another "depopulation" plan to move thousands of its coastal hurricane policies to a private insurance company.
The board voted Monday to allow the Florida-based Weston Insurance Company to assume wind-only policies from Citizens, including policies for condominiums in coastal areas. Citizens' is Florida's largest property insurer with nearly 1.3 million policyholders as of Jan. 31. The agreement was approved by the state's Office of Insurance Regulation last week.
Weston agreed to keep the policies for at least three years and will not exceed the 10 percent annual rate cap that now exists for policyholders, barring any legislative changes this spring.
Citizens' officials said the agreement could result in reducing its exposure in coastal accounts by $30 billion.

A transient ischaemic attack (TIA) often referred to as a 'mini-stroke', happens when the brain's blood supply is interrupted for a very brief time.
In a TIA, the affected part of the brain is without oxygen for just a few minutes. A TIA is a sign that part of the brain is not getting enough blood and that there is a risk of a more serious stroke in the future. So it is urgent that any individual suffering with symptoms seeks specialist advice without delay.
The first signs that someone is having or has had a TAI are usually very sudden. Symptoms include:
The symptoms of a TIA are very similar to a stroke but they are temporary - lasting a few minutes or hours, and then disappearing completely.
Improving your chances of a better recovery after a TAI or stroke will depend largely on the quality of the rehabilitation support you receive, combined with your own motivation and determination to overcome the physical and emotional changes that a stroke can cause.
The London Brain Centre works closely with the Wellington Hospital's Rehabilitation Unit, which is the largest and most well resourced private Neuro Rehabilitation Unit in the country
New enquiries are always welcome from GP's, patients and their relatives about the opportunity for those suffering with the effects of a stroke to access this service.

Great article! Thanks for posting. And isn't it so true....stupid press, stupid people???
"In today's world, finding a good, faithful husband or wife is like finding a needle in a haystack. Fortunately, CatholicMatch.com is bringing single Catholics from all over to meet, to get to know each other and to broaden the 'pool' of eligible spouses!"
"In Christian marriage, one's spouse is one's "Number Two" while the only "Number One" is God. CatholicMatch.com is laying the groundwork so that in loving God, future spouses may find the only way to adequately love each other."
"CatholicMatch can help you find your soul mate and maybe even yourself! Unlock the secret to your personality by understanding your temperament and that of your friends and even potential spouse!

Date: Thursday 28 Jun 2012
1630: Nationally, the big news of the day was that the UK's GDP decreased at a 0.3 per cent pace in the first quarter of 2012, in line with the most recent estimate, according to data published by the ONS. In addition, the previous quarter's rate of expansion was revised down slightly to show a drop of 0.4% quarter-on-quarter, versus the 0.3% seen in the first print. Also putting a dampener on spirits was the news that UK house prices fell by 0.6% month on month in June, to £165,738, according to mortgage lender Nationwide, so that prices are now 1.5% below where they were a year ago and at their lowest level since August 2009. Looking abroad, the two-day EU summit kicked off this afternoon as the region's leaders try to find a solution to the worsening debt crisis in Europe. The FTSE closed down 31 points at 5,493.
1533: Asked to comment on the Schaeuble remarks cited by The Wall Street Journal, ministry spokesman Martin Kotthaus said: "This is not true (...) we've always said that we can talk about shared debt management only at the end of a process toward a genuine fiscal union," Reuters reports. Meanwhile, and in the United States, the Supreme Court has upheld President Obama´s landmark health-care reform plan. Back home, Barclays is plummeting after reaching a settlement with regulators regarding accusations of having participated in manipulating the London interbank offered rate (LIBOR). Hundreds of trillions of pounds in contracts are tied to LIBOR. For some analysts the costs of lawsuits tied to litigation over alleged LIBOR manipulaton may run into the billions of pounds. FTSE 100 down 70 to 5,454.
1425: In an interview with the Wall Street Journal German Finance Minister Wolfgang Schauble has indicated that his country may be willing to move sooner than expected to accept shared liability of Eurozone debt and would support short-term measures to deal with the acute financing problems facing some of the region´s governments. The key for Berlin is that the path toward establishing centralized European controls over national fiscal policy is irreversible. That could happen before full implementation of treaty changes. FTSE 100 is down 62 to 5,461.
1400: The FTSE 100 is down 57 points at 5,467 as US stock futures are pointing to a sharp drop after the opening bell in New York. In particular, healthcare stocks are likely to be in focus in the States as the US Supreme Court ruling about Obama's Affordable Care Act is due for release. News Corp futures are on the rise after Rupert Murdoch's media giant confirmed that it would split into two separate publicly listed entities. Shareholders will get a stake in each company. Shares of British Sky Broadcasting are advancing in London after Deutsche Bank said that would benefit from the split
1156: Over on the other side of the Channel, the results of Italy´s 10 year debt auction have come in roughly like the last time around, although yields did rise to 6.19 per cent from 6.02 per cent in May. The European Union's economics commissioner, Olli Rehn, is stated to give a press conference at 12:15. FTSE 100 is down 51
1040: The FTSE 100 is down 47 points at 5,477, its lowest levels of the day, as banking stocks extend losses. Barclays is unsurprisingly the worst performer after yesterday's news that it was being fined by UK and US regulators of the attempted manipulation of interbank lending rates, or Libor. According to reports, big players across the entire industry are being investigated, which is probably why shares of sector peers RBS, HSBC and Lloyds are also in the red. On the FTSE 250, betting firm Ladbrokes is leading the fallers after warning over profits in its Digital division. The stock was also being pressured by a downgrade by Peel Hunt from 'buy' to 'hold'.
0933: The drop in UK´s gross domestic product in the first quarter, at an 0.3 per cent quarter-on-quarter clip, has just been confirmed by the Office for National Statistics. The previous quarter´s contraction on the other hand has been revised to show an 0.4 per cent drop, versus the previous estimate showing an 0.3 per cent fall. The current account deficit meantime reached 11.2 billion pounds in quarter one after -9 billion pounds in quarter four of 2011. FTSE 100 down 47 to 5,477.
0912: Evraz is one of the biggest percentage decliners on the top share index at the moment. That after Goldman Sachs lowered its target on the steel-maker to 410p from 700p before. Reckitt Benckiser has also taken a hit from a broker downgrade this morning. Credit Suisse has lowered the company to neutral from outperform and their price target to 3500p from 3800p previously. Nevertheless, the biggest loser at this time is Barclays, due in part no doubt to the recent negative news flow around the lender. On the positive side of the ledger, defensives such as United Utilities, Severn Trent or AstraZeneca are the clear winners now. FTSE 100 down 43 to 5,481.
0853: Barclays also seems to be a bit cautious this morning regarding the possible outcome of the European summit, with its analysts commenting that, "we expect these discussions to draw a road map for fiscal, financial and political union, but we do not anticipate any major decisions on concrete short-term measures to reduce market stress beyond what has already been agreed. Ruspetro was an early gainer on the back of news that Goldman Sachs has initiated coverage with a buy recommendation, although the move higher has since faded. DS Smith is leading gainers on the FTSE 350 after unveiling a 44% increase in full-year pre-tax profit. Singer Capital Markets has initiated Premier Oil at buy. UK home prices fell 0.6% month-on-month in June, according to Natiowide. FTSE 100 down 30 to 5,494.
0841: UK stocks have started the day down sharply, as investors pull in their horns before the European summit which begins today. Of interest, some reports cite German government officials as saying that the summit must focus on precise and quick help for Spain. However, at least some observers are wary that not too much can be expected from European leaders with a view to the short term. In this regard, Bloomberg cites Niall Ferguson, a professor of economic history at Harvard University, as having said that, the timeframe for financial crises is days. The timeframe for structural reforms is years. Also worth noting, Spanish bond yields are again at 7%, ahead of this morning´s auction of Italian long-term debt, which may be pressuring shares of the major banks. In the equity space, bookmaker Ladbrokes is leading losses on the FTSE 350 has said profits from its digital division will fall more than expected in the first half. Debenhams is also seeing selling pressure after announcing reduced gross margins for this year. FTSE 100 down 3 to 5,521.

Get away to Frangista Beach, in Destin, and stay at this brand new 2750 square foot home with 350 square feet of covered porch. This beautiful home has 5 bedroom, 3 bath private home.
I want to begin by telling you that the coolest thing about this house is the outdoor living space. The view from the great room, master bedroom is of a totally private back yard nicknamed " lil' Costa Rica" by one of the owner's friends. The yard, which is completely enclosed by a tall privacy fence, includes a large heated pool surrounded by pool deck, palm and banana trees and other tropical foliage. There's also a back porch, which runs the full width of the house giving you a large covered outdoor gathering area. Just off the porch is a natural gas grill for your outdoor cooking needs.
Moving inside from the back yard you step into a comfortable great room which includes a dining and bar area, living room, and kitchen. The dining table seats 8 with space at the bar for at least 6 more. The kitchen is equipped with everything you need to satisfy your group's dining desires.

Last but not least is the second floor loft and bedroom. This unique living area is accessed by a "U" shaped stairwell, which really isolates it from the first floor. The loft itself has a queen sleeper sofa with an upgraded 6 1/2" innerspring mattress. Off this room is a full bath and a second king bedroom.

... not so much "bad" as daunting. once read an interview with someone who had just finished a novel about an eccentric, absolutely brilliant chess player. being a player himself, he said that what usually happens is someone starts out by beating their older brothers or sisters; moves on to conquering their mother or father ... joins a chess club; beats everyone in the local pub; starts winning games in local competition, moves through progressively higher levels of play and eventually on to national competition, where - at some point - he runs into an enormously broad, incredibly high rock face of super-human ability and skill ... another league altogether - of mt. everest proportions.

(AP) -- SEOUL, South Korea - A South Korean newspaper is reporting that North Korean leader Kim Jong Il has been hospitalized. The article says Kim suffered a setback while recovering from a stroke. The report cites an unnamed South Korean official saying intellligence suggests there's "a serious problem" with Kim's health.
South Korea's National Intelligence Service and Unification Ministry have said they could not confirm the information. North Korea denies that Kim is ill. The 66-year-old North Korean leader reportedly suffered a stroke and underwent brain surgery in August. The latest report comes a day after Japan's prime minister said that Kim is probably in the hospital, though "not unable" to make decisions as North Korea's leader.

This roleplay, which doesn't have a name as yet, will focus on a team of researchers investigating the properties of an eldritch location. Loosely speaing, it will be based on thefirst arc of the horror blog The Sick Land, up until he moves into a new base and it moves into cosmic horror
The station is the deepest modern outpost in the eldritch location, with a two stories below ground, two above, and one ground floor. This is the living quarters, machine shop, garage, and storage area of the outpost. In a seperate building is the specimen collection area and laboratory. The purpose of this base is to determine the effects of the location on life. It is funded by a mix of military and private interests, and is largely trying to figure out how to use the location to bugfix their genetic experiments.
The reasoning is that since the place can take a valid organism and mutate it into an even more valid monster, then low doses of it should be able to take an invalid embryo, and mutate it into a valid one. Other branches of it are interested in mining the deeper parts of the place for either interesting pharmeceuticals, investigating the source and history of the place, or figuring out it's physics.
The base is at the beggining of a string of progressively more primitive outposts, and the research town that has sprung up well beyond the edge of the place. This is where the bulk of the reserch and military operations are based in.
