Whatever fad diet books tell you, the single most important factor affecting weight gain is the ratio of calories consumed to calories burned. Eat more than you work off, and you'll gain weight.
But in recent years we've witnessed a flurry of research showing that there's more at work than this simple formula. We all know (and loathe) them: Those people who seem to eat and eat and eat, but never gain weight. Why do some people pack on pounds, while others subject themselves to rigorous diets and workout regimens only to struggle with stubborn belly fat?
The answer has a lot to do with that mystery of mysteries, the metabolism, which like everything is influenced both by one's genetics and one's environment. The environment, in this case, includes more than just nutrition and exercise; it includes sleep habits, stress and chemical exposures. Here's a look at some of the factors scientists believe may be affecting whether or not we put on weight. (Oh, and while this may sound like an article ripped from a women's health magazine, don't be fooled: You won't find miracle pills or quick-fix workouts as solutions to these causes of weight-gain. As with eating well and getting enough exercise, there is neither a great mystery, nor an easy solution to finding good health.)
While research hasn't yet determined all the factors in the stress-weight gain feedback loop, there appears to be evidence that stress leads to weight gain -- just as putting on a few pounds can lead to stress.
One recent study found that more than 56% of stressed-out adolescents were obese, versus 47% of the less-stressed. Previous research has identified a biological switch in mice that makes the body accumulate fat. Significantly, mice that were eating a healthy diet did not put on weight, even when stressed; those eating high-fat, high-sugar diets, however, were much more likely to gain weight when stressed. Another study showed that there's a biochemical trigger in the brain that prompts mice (and possibly humans, too) to seek out comfort foods when under the kind of long-term chronic stress we all experience; not only that, but the same hormone primes the body to pack on belly fat.
What you can do:
Eat well, of course -- and chill out. We can't control every form of stress -- remember the 40-hour work week? Turns out, that was good for us -- we can reduce our stress levels.
Read a book. Take the afternoon to cook a (healthy, low-fat) family meal. Work in the garden. Take a walk. Watch the birds. Exercise. Get outside and play with the kids. ... Do whatever you do to get perspective. It may help you slim down, too.
Cutting-edge sleep researchers are learning that our round-the-clock schedules may impact our health in surprising ways. While scientists don't yet know why, studies continue to show that those who don't get enough deep restful sleep tend to gain weight.
Whether or not losing sleep makes you feel hungrier and eat more food (some do, some don't) something about losing sleep changes the metabolism. Faced with a sleep deficit, we metabolize more lean muscle and less fat. Even if we burn calories during exercise, we struggle to lose weight.
The result? According to one study, people put on three pounds in less than two weeks just by having their sleep interrupted. The results of sleep deprivation show up in as few as a couple nights without deep restful sleep. And BMI, the official measure of weight, increases steadily as the sleep deficit increases.
What you can do:
We all know what makes us lose sleep -- too much to do, too much coffee (or alcohol), too much late-night television or video gaming, a little too much "quality" time with our Blackberries. We can't control everything that wakes us up or takes away our sleep -- the crying baby can't be ignored -- but we can control many of them.
How much sleep do you need? The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention recommends 7-9 hours for adults, while some experts have said 6.5-7.5 may be closer to the ideal.
What could be wrong with baby formula? The point here has more to do with the benefits of breast-feeding during the first months of life than the demerits of any particular brand of baby formula.
A number of studies have shown that children who breast-feed are less likely to be overweight or obese in their early years, which is good -- because an overweight child is more likely to grow into an overweight adult. According to one study, the risk of a child becoming overweight declines the longer a child is breast-fed. By age 14, those who were breast-fed at least seven months were 20% less likely to be overweight than those breast-fed for three months.
Why? That's a mystery, though it may well have something to do with how the different nutrients and hormones alter a baby's metabolism.
What you can do:
If you are able, give your child a good start by breastfeeding, in consultation (of course!) with your doctor. A German study found the prevalence of obesity in children aged 5-6 decreased significantly based on the length of time their mothers breast-fed them:
Obesity rate - Duration of breast-feeding
4.5% - Never
3.8% - 2 months
2.3% - 3-5 mos
1.7% - 6-12 mos
0.8% - 12+ mos
Never heard of "obesogens"? That's because it's a scientific term for chemicals that mess with the hormones that regulate our metabolism, and cause us to gain weight. In recent years, scientists have studied all sorts of substances -- they call them "endocrine-disrupting chemicals" -- that our bodies mistake for hormones. The endocrine system regulates the body's reproduction, development and metabolism, and most research to date has focused on the reproductive and developmental effects of these chemicals. Just like hormones, they may change our bodies in ways both subtle and profound, even at minute concentrations. The timing of exposure is key, and most chemicals seem to cause the most changes when pregnant women or very young children are exposed. Several studies point to links between manmade chemicals and weight gain. Here are a few:
Bisphenol A
This common chemical, which is used in a variety of plastics and in the lining of food and drink cans, can leach into foods (or directly into the bodies of babies chewing on teethers or toys) and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has found it in about 9 of 10 Americans tested. The Food and Drug Administration and the chemical industry stand by its safety, but a growing body of evidence by independent scientists has persuaded several governments (Minnesota, Chicago, Suffolk County, N.Y., and Canada) that it should not be used in children's products. Some of that research suggests that Bisphenol A -- a synthetic estrogen -- makes lab rats pack on extra weight, regardless of their diet. In humans, it has been linked to heart disease, diabetes and other symptoms of metabolic syndrome in humans, possibly by interfering with a beneficial hormone. To avoid Bisphenol A, avoid No. 7 plastics, use a stainless steel reusable water bottle, limit your consumption of canned foods and drinks, don't microwave foods in plastic and look for products explicitly marked "BPA free."PFOA and PFOS
Perfluorooctanoic acid and perfluorooctane sulfonate are the chemicals that makes nonstick pans, grease-resistant paper and stain-resistant clothing, carpets and furniture withstand oils. We're exposed our entire lives, and the exposure in the womb may be the most important, according to one study. Several studies have shown that the chemicals lead to lowered birth weight, but one showed that the initial drop in birth weight is followed by a rapid gaining of weight that is associated with obesity throughout life. To avoid these chemicals, think twice before buying stain-resistant and nonstick products (cast iron is one good alternative in the kitchen) and limit your intake of fast foods, microwave popcorn and other foods that may be wrapped in grease-proof paper.Phthalates
Another common chemical, phthalates are found in soft plastics, fragrances and many other consumer products. The U.S. recently banned the use of several phthalates in children's products, because of evidence that early exposure affects the normal development of boys by reducing testosterone levels. One study showed that adult men with the most evidence of exposure to phthalates had fatter bellies. To avoid phthalates, avoid No. 3 plastics, and scrutinize the ingredients of products for "fragrances" or the acronyms DBP, DEP, DMP, DEHP, BxBP or DMP -- all of which signal the presence of phthalates.Dioxins
Formed as a byproduct of burning, dioxins are common and known to be harmful at minute levels. (Whereas the Environmental Protection Agency measures most pollutants in pounds, it measures dioxins in grams.) Dioxin rains down after being emitted by smokestacks, tailpipes and fires, and it contaminates farms, leaving us to be exposed when we eat meat, dairy and fish products. One study showed that those who had been exposed to the highest levels of dioxins were five times more likely to have metabolic syndrome, a collection of metabolic conditions that includes obesity, glucose intolerance and hypertension. To avoid exposure to dioxins, moderate your intake of beef, pork and dairy products, and choose lean cuts of meat to avoid dioxin stored in fats.Pesticides
Several pesticides are known or suspected to be endocrine-disrupting chemicals. Among the suspects is tributyltin, which was used in anti-fungal boat paints and to kill pests on some food crops, and which may trigger obesity. On golf courses, workers who handled the pesticide tricholorfon had an 85%-250% greater risk of developing diabetes, depending on how frequently they handled the chemical. Children born to mothers with higher levels of the pesticide hexachlorobenzene in cord blood were "significantly more likely to be overweight and obese" by the age of 6. In a recent study, rats fed water laced with atrazine, a weed killer commonly used on U.S. corn crops (but banned in much of the world) gained 5%-10% more weight than rats that weren't exposed to the chemical. Those fed weed killer and a high-fat diet gained the most weight, but even rats that ate a healthy diet ended up about 5% fatter if they drank the tainted water. To avoid these and other pesticides, avoid using insect and weed killers around the home, and avoid foods with the most pesticide residue.

FARMINGTON — Davis County Extension's new digs should be easier for the public to find and be a lot more user-friendly.
The consumer-oriented agency has moved from the second floor to the main floor of the old Davis County Memorial Courthouse, 28 E. State Street in Farmington.
Services are consolidated in two main areas, and include a classroom that can seat about 50 and an area dedicated to the master gardener program, including space for its various gardening-related clinics where the public can sit down and discuss any such issues, says Justen Smith, extension director.
"It provides space that is a little more contiguous, rather than being broken up," County Commissioner Bret Millburn said.
Family and consumer sciences, 4-H, food nutrition and other services will all be within one area, not spread in various small rooms down a couple of halls, as was the former arrangement.
Room 107 will be the main entrance and signs are in place in the hallways directing patrons.
"This is good for us and it's good for the public," Smith said. "We'll be able to service the public better by being more accessible and with more space, without spending more money."
Extension is formally known as Utah State University Cooperative Extension Service.
Smith explained that under state statute, counties provide operating budgets and office space, thus "meeting their commitment," similar to what exists in states across the country.
"When the county moved to the new (administration) building (to the south), there was a whole empty building," basically, he said.
Extension is joined on the first floor by the county's Facilities Management department, which is farther south on the first floor, while the Bountiful/Davis Art Center is upstairs. It is temporarily housed there until its new space in the old Bountiful City Hall is completed.
"We're trying to consolidate parts that are being utilized. It's a more efficient use of the space for them (agencies) and us (county)," Millburn said.

The after-Christmas sales scene looked as dismal Wednesday morning as the rainy weather.
Stores opened early and had extra help on hand to deal with an expected - and hoped-for - crush of post-holiday shoppers.
But at many stores, business was a relative trickle and workers looked to outnumber customers.
"I thought the parking lot was going to be massively full," said Arthur Lopez, a fourth-grade teacher browsing in the men's clothing section at J.C. Penney.
Instead, he said he was easily able to park near an entrance - an advantage given the steadily falling rain - and he had little company as he looked for deals to buy with gift cards he received for Christmas.
By afternoon, the rain was gone, the sky was clear - and stores and parking lots were packed.
"I had to wait 15 minutes just to make a return" at Best Buy, said Sara Johnson of Fayetteville. But, she said, she'd expected little different.
"It's always a madhouse the day after Christmas," she said.
Not early in the day. One shopper who'd risen early to get to Kohl's by its 5 a.m. opening said she'd expected to be one of many crowding into the store then. Instead, she said, she was one of "about five" who were outside the store when it opened.
At Target, about 75 people waited outside for it to open at 7. When it did, most headed straight to a rear corner of the store where Christmas-related items were marked half-off. Otherwise, business there was slow while the rain fell and shoppers had plenty of elbow room.
Bunnlevel resident Melisha Murray got up at 2 a.m. to sort through sale ads, cut out coupons and plan her attack on Fayetteville stores.
By 6, she was at Kohl's, where she shopped for clothes. Around 7:30, she arrived at Target and made a beeline for the discounted Christmas items, filling her cart with wrapping paper, bows, bags and plastic bins. Then she moved on to other parts of the store and thinking of where she might go next. Murray said she was in search of a good deal on a Sodastream home soda maker and ... whatever else caught her eye.
"I'm just looking for deals," she said.
Kim Cowger, also at Target, said she'd gotten up early to go to Best Buy to exchange a damaged electronic tablet.
She said she had expected to fight through crowds and traffic but got in and out so quickly she found herself tempted by the sparsely filled parking lot at Target next door.
Soon afterward, she was inside the store pushing a cart, and filling it.
"Oh, yeah," she said.
Nationally, retail sales were lackluster leading into Christmas with analysts blaming bad weather and rising uncertainty about the economy in the face of possible tax hikes and spending cuts next year.
Locally, the story was different at some retailers.
"We've had a phenomenal selling season," said Scott Green, manager of the Target store in Fayetteville. On Christmas Eve night, for example, the store was so busy that it remained full of shoppers at 9:30 p.m. - half an hour after it was supposed to have closed.
At Penney's in Cross Creek Mall, store leader Howard Walker said before-Christmas sales had been good and while customer traffic was light Wednesday morning, he believed that would change once the weather did. Wednesday afternoon, the store - and its parking lot - were packed.
Josh Carter and Marissa Pounders were among the few people walking around the mall Wednesday morning. But they may not have noticed. They'd come out on a happy mission - to get the diamond ring that he'd given her on Christmas Eve resized.
Carter, a teacher at Gray's Creek High School, beamed at Pounders as the Stoney Point Elementary School teacher displayed her new ring.
She smiled at her new fiance. "He did pretty good," she said.

Just for the Record
Danny Dyer and Sean Pertwee headline this mock documentary comedy examining the tangled aftermath of a bungled movie shoot. The movie was titled "Just for the Record," and it had all the ingredients of a bona fide hit; the director was an eager up-and-comer, the stars were cast, and the new digital camera was cutting-edge technology. Then, it all just fell apart. One year later, a series of interviews reveal that it wasn't just one man's incompetence that sunk "Just for the Record," but a disastrous series of events brought about by everyone involved: the producer cared more about chasing women and swilling booze than making a quality film; the writer managed to read an entire library's worth of screenwriting books without learning how to tell a story; and the manic depressive editor couldn't keep it together long enough to make even one confident cut. Over the course of the cramped, rushed, underfinanced two-week shoot, the project simply collapsed. Fortunately for aspiring micro-budget filmmakers, the entire fiasco was captured on camera so they can avoid making the same mistakes as this crew. Just for the Record co-stars Rik Mayall, Steven Berkoff, and Victoria Silverstedt. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Jason Statham and Saffron Burrows star in director Roger Donaldson's cinematic account of the true-life 1971 London bank robbery that baffled the authorities and fascinated the public. Terry Leather (Statham) was a small-time car dealer who was trying to leave his shady past behind and start a family. Though he'd never been involved in any major crimes, he wasn't exactly on the straight and narrow his whole life either. Martine Love (Burrows) is a beautiful model from Terry's old neighborhood who knows that her former neighbor is no angel. When Martine proposes a foolproof plan to rob a Baker Street bank, Terry recognizes the danger but realizes this may be the opportunity of a lifetime. As the operation gets underway, the resourceful band of thieves burrows its way into a safe-deposit vault at the Lloyds Bank in Marylebone, quickly hitting a literal treasure trove of cash and priceless gems. But while the crew did know that the safe-deposit boxes contained millions in riches, they didn't realize that they also contained secrets that implicated everyone from London's most notorious underworld gangsters to powerful government figures, and even the Royal Family. Though the crime would make headlines all across Britain for several days after the fact, a government gag order eventually brought all reporting on the case to an immediate halt. Could it be that the most notorious bank robbers in recent memory were actually the most innocent people involved in this scandalous crime? ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

A hardened seaman and a dogged reporter become trapped on an island with a mysterious scientist, a ruthless band of mercenaries, and a vicious pack of unidentifiable creatures in BloodRayne director Uwe Boll's seventh video game-to-screen adaptation. A team of mercenaries has been attacked on a remote island in the Pacific Northwest, and as mysterious reports begin to emerge from the chaos, a veteran Seattle newspaper editor sends top reporters Tom Moore and Valerie Constantine to the scene in hopes of getting the scoop on the story. Shortly after arriving on the island under the guidance of ship captain Jack Carver (Til Schweiger), the trio is attacked by mercenary commander Maria Sanchez. Though Tom is killed, Valerie and Jack manage to stage a daring escape and quickly begin to bicker over their plan as Maria's murderous soldiers fast begin gaining ground. Despite Captain Jack's plan to locate his friend Emilio and get off of the island as quickly as possible, reporter Valerie remains determined to investigate the strange situation and get as many details as possible for her upcoming story. Later, when Jack, Valerie, and Emilio are captured and taken to the secret lab of genius scientist Dr. Krieger, Valerie is extended an invitation to join the doctor in announcing his latest findings to the world. Though it finally seems as if Valerie has gotten just the scoop needed to make her story, the situation quickly turns chaotic when one of Dr. Kreiger's creatures escapes from the lab and sets out on a murderous rampage. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

In lieu of continuing the events of Geoffrey Sax's 2005 thriller White Noise (which starred Michael Keaton and Chandra West), the supernatural thriller White Noise 2 (released in Great Britain as White Noise: The Light) begins with a separate set of characters and explores a thematically similar set of events. Abe Dale (Nathan Fillion) is a sweet-natured, contented husband and father whose wife, Rebecca (Kendall Cross) and young son, Danny (Josh Ballard) are butchered by a seemingly crazed gunman. Henry Caine (Craig Fairbrass) bursts into a diner and shoots both of them, then turns the gun on himself. Devastated, Abe makes an unsuccessful suicide bid, then awakens in a hospital, where he finds himself in a near death experience, pulled inexorably toward a bright light. Regaining consciousness, Abe discovers his sudden, newfound ability to spot "auras" around the living that signal death in advance. He uses the precognition to save several lives from potential disaster, as a kind of 'avenging angel,' but soon discovers that these interventions against death wreak exceedingly dire and ugly consequences on Earth. ~ Nathan Southern, Rovi

An advertising executive at risk of losing his job finds that inspiration can sometimes come from the least likely of places in a brotherly comedy about getting laid and getting the job done from director Pat Holden. Adman Ed Waxman (Brendan Fehr) has just been informed by the higher-ups that if he doesn't come up with a killer campaign in the next 48 hours, he can kiss his high-paying job goodbye. Though work is all Ed can think about as the weekend approaches and inspiration seems to take a vacation, the arrival of Ed's womanizing brother, Cooper (Chris Klein), finds the pair setting out on an altogether different mission: to find the overworked and undersexed Ed some fitting female companionship. Just as a series of disastrous encounters with everyone from single mothers to sultry strippers begins to convince Ed that his love life is in as much trouble as his professional life, the appearance of a woman who could quite possibly be Ed's soul mate provides a glimmer of hope that the situation may not be as dire as he previously thought. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi

Killing Time
Killing Time aspires to be a hip, black comedy about a bumbling band of killers but never quite carries it off. Suave serial killer Jacob (Nigel Leach) finally goes too far when he kills a cop. Detective Bob Bryant (Craig Fairbrass) hires an Italian hit woman and then blackmails a small-time criminal into killing the hit woman. The story revolves around his gang and their increasingly unsuccessful attempts to carry out the job. The film is beautifully composed, and director Bharat Nalluri shows flair for striking camera placement, but the script is so poor that the film lurches from scene to scene and the performances are uneven. The only reason to see the film is Kendra Torgan as the hit woman who gives a sexy and threatening performance. ~ Linda Rasmussen, Rovi

This compelling low-budget horror-fantasy from Welsh filmmaker Julian Richards made a splash at several fantasy film festivals, where it often garnered a more favorable reception than Hollywood big-budget product. The plot follows the investigations of English journalist Frazer Truick (Craig Fairbrass) into the disappearance of a colleague's brother in South Wales. His snooping unearths the elaborate political machinations of a long-standing, ultra-conservative faction known as "Regeneration," whose followers, under the leadership of businessman David Keller (Jon Finch), intend to return Wales to its ancient Celtic ways... including the practice of human sacrifices. Insidious plot twists abound, all of which point to Truick's unknowing role in the sect's master plan. Richards' excellent script may draw its thematic inspiration from The Wicker Man, and those familiar with that film may not be entirely surprised by the climax; the story nevertheless contains many unconventional surprises, and it maintains an effective balance between political allegory and pure suspense. Further enhanced by excellent photography and an intense performance from Fairbrass, Darklands represents a remarkable debut from an assured genre talent. ~ Cavett Binion, Rovi

Beyond Bedlam
Beyond Bedlam is an ambitious British horror shocker, incorporating elements familiar from Nightmare On Elm Street and the work of such authors as Thomas Harris and Clive Barker. Terry Hamilton (Craig Fairbrass) is a detective haunted by the maniac he captured seven years ago, known as the Bone Man (Keith Allen). The Bone Man, whose real name is Gilmour, is the top patient of a scientist (Elizabeth Hurley), who has been using Gilmour in experiments to test a new mind-calming drug called BFND. But the drug also enables Gilmour to bring his hallucinations to life, and his monstrous creations menace Hamilton and the doctor during the film's second half as they attempt to put Gilmour down for good. Shot mostly in an abandoned sanitarium, the film puts its eerie location to good effect and has a lot of visual style, but the initially promising premise breaks down as the long final pursuit kicks in. ~ Don Kaye, Rovi

In Cliffhanger, Sylvester Stallone plays Gabe Walker, a member of a mountain-climbing rescue team. Gabe is haunted by an incident from his past when he couldn't save the girlfriend of his best friend, Hal Tucker (Michael Rooker), from falling to her death. As the story begins, Gabe has left mountain-climbing rescue work and has set up business in Denver. He returns to the mountain rescue office to persuade his lover, Jessie (Janine Turner), to quit and come back to Denver with him. While he is begging Jessie to head out to Denver, things are happening in the skies overhead. A gang of professional crooks headed by psychotic Eric Qualen (John Lithgow) has hijacked a U.S. Treasury plane carrying millions of dollars. But the plane crashes, and the bad guys find themselves stranded on top of a mountain with the money (put into three cases) scattered around the wreckage and with no way to get down off the pinnacle to retrieve the cases. They put in a phony distress call that is received by the mountain rescue team. Gabe agrees to take part in one last rescue attempt, and they head up to help rescue the thieves. But Qualen has plans for the rescuers -- to force them to climb through the dangerous snow-covered peaks to find the three suitcases of cash. ~ Paul Brenner, Rovi

With a cruel, keen edge, this taut social drama slices deeply into Thatcher's England to expose a grim underbelly of racism, cynicism and despair. Reuben James is a black paratrooper who has spent the last nine years serving in the British army and who finally gets discharged to return to his home in South London. There he discovers that the residents have been ravaged by the poverty of the decade and many have turned to crime to survive, while others do their best in the midst of crushing hopelessness to find order and meaning. He too fights the same battles as he struggles to find work. He is disillusioned to discover that to racist employers, his sterling service record is almost worthless. The poor veteran suffers a final blow when he learns that because he was born on the common-wealth island of St. Lucia, and because the laws have suddenly changed, he is no longer considered a British citizen. Now he must quickly make a decision about the rest of his life. Meanwhile, back in the neighborhood, tempers fray, frustration mounts and violence ensues. ~ Sandra Brennan, Rovi

So Will is taking constitutional advice from John Yoo who wrote in one of his "torture memos" to Bush, "THE FOURTH AMENDMENT DOES NOT APPLY TO THE WAR ON TERROR".
This sophistry of making murder legal is a consequence of our government of lawyers. Here's a couple of links for those interested in the legal arguments (national and international). http://www.bc.edu/dam/files/schools/l...
I'm more interested in the moral and historical arguments. Will ends with the implication that assassinations are morally preferable to bombing neighborhoods. Does anyone really believe those are our only two choices? Of course not. Will also fails to bring up "signature" assassinations (based on cell phone & other electronic signals) or the targeting of US citizens like Awlaki and his 16 year-old son.
It is time for America to become less violent and less aggressive. Revenge and domination are moral evils. Murder is immoral no matter if it's committed by an individual, a state, or even a drone. Being the global "bully" is bad for America (and of course bad for the rest of the world).
Why must we keep killing more and more fellow children of God? Wasn't 1.4 MILLION Iraqis enough punishment for allowing an evil leader to seize power? Would a targeted strike on Hussein have saved any of these lives? How did our assassination of Mosaddegh in Iran work out over the last 50 years? Can't we learn from the mistakes of history? How did the assassination of archduke Ferdinand affect the world? 100 MILLION deaths have taught us NOTHING. When will we accept the commandment not to kill instead of playing legal semantics to justify hell on earth?
Lofty and naive statements. We need to keep killing and stay on top of the world in the face of rising militarism in China and Africa, and the increasing din of the barbarians to form an islamic caliphate. More military might, not less, is needed.

This Thursday, January 24th St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral will be the first cathedral in all of North America to receive a chorister endowment from the Friends of Cathedral Music (FCM) centered in London, England. The award will be presented at Thursday's 7 pm Choral Evensong.
The choral foundation at St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral dates back to 1867, making it one of the first men and boys' choirs in North America and was one of the first choirs of men and boys in the country. Now, it is one of only 30 remaining in the USA. There are currently 15 boy choristers and 12 salaried lay clerks (or choir men). The choir has travelled overseas extensively, making eight trips to the United Kingdom in the past 20 years.
The training, education and discipline of being part of the St. Paul's Episcopal Cathedral choirs have helped form leaders and musicians. Among those who, as young boys, sang with the Men and Boys Choir are Aaron Bartley, who lives in Buffalo and founded PUSH, an advocacy group for the poor; William Eddins, one time Resident Conductor of the Chicago Symphony Orchestra and present Music Director of the Edmonton Orchestra; Raymond Glover, editor for the Hymnal 1982, the official hymnal of the Episcopal Church USA; Paul Moravec, winner of the 2004 Pulitzer Prize for Music; and Valerian Ruminski, a bass who has sung with the Metropolitan Opera and the New York City Opera, among others, and has also made a concert appearance in Messiah with the Buffalo Philharmonic.
The girls' choir currently consists of 15 choristers and has developed a reputation as one of the finest ensembles of its kind in an American cathedral. During the past decade they also have toured extensively overseas including singing in several British cathedrals.
Formed in 1999, the Schola Cantorum (a mixed adult choir) deputizes for the cathedral choirs once a month and as needed. The Choir is intentionally a part-time ensemble, providing an opportunity for women and men who cannot make a weekly time commitment to sing the great choral repertoire of the Church and to offer it within its proper context of worship.
Currently all the costs of the music are funded by a modest 'parish style' congregation
and financial viability threatens the well-being of the choral foundation. For this reason a choir endowment has been established coinciding with the recent 140th anniversary of the choirs. Their goal is to raise $1.5 million over the next three years.
The organist/choirmaster is Mr. Jeremy S. Bruns who oversees four choirs to sing five weekly choral services as well as additional services and concerts. Mr. Bruns was previously Associate Organist at St Thomas Episcopal Church, Fifth Avenue, New York City, a parish internationally noted for its Men and Boys Choir, but which operates a boarding school to train choristers.
Christopher Gower, FCM's Grants Secretary has said, "As we are a world-wide
organization of nearly 4,000 members, with a significant number in the USA, we are
keen to support cathedral music wherever it is being maintained. We hope it will be both a support and an encouragement to all those involved with the music at the Buffalo Cathedral. I have had personal experience of the great work being done there which is set in quite a challenging urban environment."
Since its foundation 52 years ago, FCM has given grants to the choirs of cathedrals, collegiate and large parish churches in an amount equalling approximately $3,000,000. Its members share a love of cathedral music and through the organization, supports and encourages the singing of daily services and helps to preserve this priceless heritage. Enabling St Paul's Episcopal Cathedral in Buffalo to preserve this tradition is dear to the hearts of all FCM members.

"NEW YORK–The car of the future is here, at least according to Ford, which unveiled its first all-electric car today with glitzy events here in New York and in Las Vegas.
Unlike its competitors, Ford will roll out its electric vehicle as a new version of an existing model, the popular Ford Focus. In a further move to distinguish itself from the field, the Focus will be available not just as an all-electric car, but also as a hybrid, a plug-in hybrid, and as a conventional gas engine vehicle."

PHILADELPHIA — Doc Rivers was about through with his pregame press obligations Wednesday, and if he could just make it through a few more questions, he could avoid a confrontation with his No. 1 fear.
Then ...
"How dangerous is any Game 7?"
The Celtics' coach breathed deeply.
"Dangerous," he said. "What do you want me to say?"
He knew. He knew what the Celtics would have to do in the next three hours, and he knew what would happen if they didn't. He knew they would have to dismiss the Sixers — the younger, bouncier, more aggressive Sixers — in Game 6 of the NBA's Eastern Conference semifinals or put the Celtics' season at a one-game risk.
Game 6 Final: Sixers 82, Celtics 75.
The Sixers are alive, still.
They are alive without a point guard. They are alive without being able to match the Celtics, superstar for superstar. They are alive even though they knew that winning Game 6 and then Game 7, too, would require immense physical energy ... and even more mental sturdiness.
They are alive because Elton Brand, who can barely sleep because of a sharply painful neck and shoulder, scored double figures for the second consecutive game, going for 13 points and 10 rebounds. They are alive because Andre Iguodala finished in traffic like Julius Erving. They are alive because they challenged everything on defense, allowing 16 points in the paint, scoring 42.
Now: A one-game series.
"Game 7's are what they are," Rivers said. "It is nice to have them at home. But we have to go get it still. We have to play. I think having an extra day to prepare helps us a little bit."
The Sixers lost Game 5 in Boston by 16 points, but somehow, some odd way, they did not lose their spirit. On the contrary, they spent Game 6 blocking shots --- short shots and long ones, too. They spent it fighting on defense, rebounding with authority, running when they could.
"They are young and fast and play with a lot of energy," Rivers said. "Everything is difficult for our guys. We knew this matchup, coming in, would be hard because they have a quickness advantage. We understand that."
Between Games 5 and 6, Doug Collins tried nostalgia, showing his team a film of the 1982 Sixers, who won a Game 7 in Boston. The front office tried even more before the game, inviting Allen Iverson to the Wells Fargo Center, sending the sellout crowd into an uproar. Both may have helped. But more than likely, it was something deeper, something more immediate. "A lot of it," Iguodala had said, "is about will."
The Sixers were outrageous longshots to win Round 1, but defeated the (injury troubled) Bulls in six. They were not popularly expected to win Round 2, and still may not. They should be heavy underdogs in Game 7.
"We've given ourselves a chance," Collins said. "That's what we wanted. We wanted a chance to play Game 7 in Boston. But I am greedy. Now I want more."
That is what the Sixers have won, that chance. They've won it simply because they have refused to go away. Somehow, Doc Rivers seemed concerned about that early Wednesday ... and aware of it, once again, late.
"I think they fully knew that every series was going to be a grind," Rivers said. "We understand who we are. We don't have a big margin for error. Every night, this is how it is going to be."
So the Sixers and Celtics will play one more time, Saturday in the Garden, the winner earning a chance for another seven-game grind, the loser done.
Game 7. It was the Celtics' fear. Now, it is their challenge.
"I don't want to talk about a Game 7," Rivers said, before the game. "Because we are in Game 6. And Game 6 can be dangerous. So we just have to play tonight. Then we'll worry about whatever else happens."
He can worry now. Because something happened. Something, as he said, dangerous.

Ahhh!! Its great to be back online. I took a few days off to creatively catch my breath and reconnect with my love of painting. I guess you could say, painting is my creative muse of sorts.
For me, painting is a full contact sport. It may look a bit chaotic from a distance, but I assure you all my senses are fully engaged.
In the midst of all the colors and textures of my day, I was meditatively chewing like a ruminant mammal for new ideas to share on future postings.
Most of all , I'd like to say thank you for all the sweet Emails, Face Book messages and comments from my loyal friends and readers. I missed you and hope in the days ahead I'll bring you some newly hatched ideas!
Everyone has asked me to post my work…and I will. I'm still in the process, but I thought I'd post some previous paint projects of mine for now .
Most of my painting on wood has been in the form of furniture, but several months ago I painted a bunch of wooden bracelets for fun. Here's just a few samples.
This is a small section of a gallery wall in my home leading to my library room. Can you guess which oil painting is mine?
Looking forward to the days ahead and hopefully we'll all share in the delight of creative blogging! Hugs everyone!

Rust out.....which cooling fluid in ??
Here the follow up of the rust,trash,crud or stuff getting out of the cooling system.
R L Chilton : I flushed the engine with the normal waterslough and indeed another amound of the things above came out.
Kdancy : with the presure washer a couple of days later again new crud came out. Indeed dry the engine inside and outside with compressed air. The total proces takes a lot of time !! Several hours and you get very dirty and wet!!
Walts garage - 53 : You talk about another engine ?? Perhaps 1936. From 1937 on the waterpump is no longer on the head.
I do not know where the rubbers are you talk about ? Please can you give some more details ?
Ken U- Tx : My question is : Which cooling fluid is the best ? In my case Anti freeze is not important. In the winter the car does not come out of the warm garage.
Anti corrosion and waterpump seal lubricants are inportant. With deiononized water both things are not in the fluid.
What gives the best cooling, that's important with this old engines.
In England someone told me that some coolant fluids will give an engine tempreture 10 degrees C. lower??
Also there are products you can leave in the engine for a longer period.
Please, some good advise about the cooling fluid ? I hope as good as my question about the rust. The makes in the USA or in other parts of the world will be sold in the Netherlands?
yes, it is a nasty job! But it is the only way I have found to get all the crud out of a block, A steam cleaner is even better if one has access to one. -
No, I was talking about engines 48 to 56, not splashers. They have a water tube behind the water pump that sends water to all hot spots, mostly valve seats. Walt.
An HET member here in NZ who has been in the radiator business for decades told me some time ago that the only thing that should go into the radiator with the water is an egg cup or so of soluble oil (as used on lathes) every so often. This will prevent any rust developing.
After the problems I had with radiators failing a few years ago while using bottled additives, I have taken heed to his advise.

Hearts is a trick taking game in which the object is to avoid winning tricks containing hearts; the queen of spades is even more to be avoided. The first card played in the first trick is the two of clubs. Play continues clockwise until everyone has played a card. The highest ranked card in the initially lead suit wins the trick. You may lead a heart at the beginning of a round only if you have only hearts in your hand. |

Announcing your wedding engagement in the paper is a lovely way to let your family, friends, and local community know about and share your good news. But how do you write the announcement? Here's how to submit the information to your paper.
Dear Wedding Guru: "We're getting engaged soon and we'd like to run our engagement announcement in our local newspaper. They do that routinely, but every so often we find out that a friend's announcement didn't print. We think that maybe they didn't follow the newspaper's procedure, so we want to do it right. What are the guidelines?"

Current high profile topics in the U.S. -- with a religious component:
Of the hundreds of religious topics saturating the news, the following appear to have the highest profile right now. It is interesting that 5 of the 7 topics are related to human sexuality and/or gender. The following seem to be the most important current topics of concern to many faith groups:
"Federal Defense of Marriage act (DOMA):" This law originally prevented legally married same-sex couples and their children from obtaining any of the approximately 1,138 federal benefits, protections, and rights that were automatically given as special privileges only to opposite-sex married couples. The U.S. Supreme Court ruled on 2013-JUN-26 that Section 3 of the law was unconstitutional. Same-sex married couples now have the same rights as opposite-married couples subject to some limitations. This ruling is expected to have a major long term impact on LGBT equality because of the majority opinion written by Justice Anthony Kennedy.
"Boy Scouts of America" (BSA): The BSA prohibited LGBT youth and adults from joining, and expeled any such persons when they were discovered within the organization. Delegates to their annual meeting voted to allow LGBT youths to join, but to expell them at age 18. Conservative religious denominations and parachurch groups are outraged that LGBT youths are allowed to join; some are organizing groups in competition to the BSA.
