A man's heart reflects the man. Proverbs 27:19 (NIV)
The Bible uses the term "heart" to describe the bundle of desires, hopes, interests, ambitions, dreams, and affections that you have. Your heart represents the source of all your motivations -- what you love to do and what you care about most. Even today, we still use the word in this way when we say, "I love you with all my heart."
The Bible says what is in your heart is what you really are, not what others think you are, or what circumstances force you to be (Proverbs 27:19). Your heart is the real you. It determines why you say the things you do, why you feel the way you do, and why you act the way you do.
Physically, each of us has a unique heartbeat. Just as we each have unique thumbprints, eye prints, and voiceprints, our hearts beat in slightly different patterns. It's amazing that out of all the billions of people who've ever lived, no one has ever had a heartbeat exactly like yours.
In the same way, God has given each of us a unique emotional "heartbeat" that races when we think about the subjects, activities, or circumstances that interest us. We instinctively care about some things and not about others. These are clues to where you should be serving.
Another word for heart is passion. There are certain subjects that you feel deeply passionate about and others that you couldn't care less about. Some experiences turn you on and capture your attention, while others turn you off or bore you to tears. These reveal the nature of your heart; listen for inner promptings that can point to the ministry God intends for you to have.
When you were growing up you may have discovered that you were intensely interested in some subjects that no one else in your family cared about.
Where did those interests come from? They came from God!
God had a purpose in giving you these inborn interests. Your emotional heartbeat is a key to understanding your shape for service. Don't ignore your interests; consider how they might be used for God's glory. There is a reason that you love to do these things.
Listen for inner promptings that can point to the ministry God intends for you to have.
Do you ever feel tired, drained or "beat-up" and just don't know why? That's because every day you're fighting an unseen spiritual war. You can't see it, but its effects are very real. In his 7 session Study Kit "The Invisible War: Winning the Battle of Temptation," Pastor Rick will teach you how to overcome the three predictable types of temptations that Satan uses to entice and defeat you: Passion, Possession, and Position.
Why is everything in life so hard? Why does doing the right thing often feel like a battle? In this new series, Pastor Rick shares insights from God's Word about the unseen spiritual forces working against us; the invisible war between good and evil. This series will help you win the battle within.

Jamie Lynn Spears couldn't look her mother in the eye to tell her she was pregnant at 16.
Lynne Spears says that Jamie Lynn handed her a note and told her to read it in the bedroom alone. She says the note revealed she was pregnant, but "everything was OK" and that she and her boyfriend were going to raise the baby.
Spears thought it was a joke at first. She says she was "waiting for the punchline."
When she realized Jamie Lynn was serious, she started crying and had to be consoled by her daughter.
Spears says both her daughters are doing fine now and that Britney's "heading for the top once again."
Jamie Lynn's daughter Maddie is now three months old.
Spears is out with a book about her family called "Through the Storm."

This Little Underground
Bao Le-Huu takes on Total Bummer 3-D Music Festival and You Are Doomed Fest
Published: May 10, 2012
Happening on the same strip but occupying the far opposite end of the musical spectrum was the expanded two-day reprise of the heavy music mini-festival You Are Doomed Fest (May 5-6, Will's Pub), the area's most tastefully curated metal expo.
The jaw-dropper of this year's event was Miami sludge-drone band Holly Hunt. The calling card of this haymaking guitar-and-drums duo is instrumental minimalism jacked to maximum heights.Instead of the typical pit of murk that lots of likeminded bands end up in, their thrillingly primordial beast-groan rages with electrified clarity. This is a campaign of power, not gloom. Guitarist Gavin Perry's rig is mammoth and, in the band's more charging moments, it becomes obvious how killer of a drummer Beatriz Monteavaro (ex-Floor) is. Together, they're one pile-driving phenomenon. And lucky for you, they're back in town this Saturday to open for Torche (May 12, Will's Pub) so go get flattened.
And there's still practically nothing like the stoned-out sludge of Jacksonville/Central Florida band Hollow Leg,one of the most exhilarating metal bands around. Few things are more life-affirming than letting the nasty mudslide of their dirty sound pour down on you. Damn, that shit makes you feel not blood but pure masculine power pump through your veins. That's truth there.
There's no shortage of metal in Orlando. But taken in aggregate, the median IQ ain't exactly high. That's why it's essential to support this kind of high-caliber heavy music gathering. Otherwise, you have only yourself to blame each time you see a mook-rock bill.

our community
At the Susquehanna Waldorf School, our community extends beyond our school doors. We take pride in sharing the learning and wonder our students experience here every day. Here are just a few events we love to celebrate with our community.
Winter fair
A celebrated tradition at Susquehanna Waldorf, our beloved school magically transforms into a seasonal gem as parents create this event anew each year. Classrooms become spaces full of adventure for children and adults; the sweet smells, the bright colors, the softness of wool and silk; sounds of the season from many talented musicians – including our own students – and delicious fare to please a variety of tastes. Children delight in reaching for a treasure from our singing Pocket Lady's skirt, a favorite of many for sure. Year after year visitors ages 1 to 100 enjoy creating a cookie cottage and crafting. Our school store, under the sycamore tree, and the silent auction, offer great gift giving possibilities. The fair raises money in support of our school while bringing people together in celebration. Simultaneously our community reaches out to the greater community providing donations for a worthy cause. With great anticipation we look forward to sharing this event with one another and you, do join us!
Hatha Yoga Class- Saturdays 8-10 a.m. (we all pitch in to move things out of the room before we begin practicing around 8:15 and then back into the room at the end). This is an all levels class taught by Heidi Fuerst (200 hour certified and practicing for about 13 years) in which beginners are welcome. We practice various asanas (yoga poses) using some props, with an eye toward good alignment, creating an environment that will allow you to move inward while gaining strenth and flexibility. The class is run on a donation basis with a suggested donation of $6 - 1/3 of the amount received is given back to the school. For the first few classes, a mat and comfortable clothing that will allow Heidi to see your form in the asanas is all you need. Those who come regularly also bring blocks, straps and blankets to class but Heidi has extras for new students to use. Classes resume January 4 with a class taught as a beginner's class. Please email (email@example.com) Heidi for more information. Hope to see you in class!

In economics, the term circular flow of income or circular flow refers to a simple economic model which describes the reciprocal circulation of income between producers and consumers. In the circular flow model, the inter-dependent entities of producer and consumer are referred to as "firms" and "households" respectively and provide each other with factors in order to facilitate the flow of income. Firms provide consumers with goods and services in exchange for consumer expenditure and "factors of production" from households.
The circle of money flowing through the economy is as follows: total income is spent (with the exception of "leakages" such as consumer saving), while that expenditure allows the sale of goods and services, which in turn allows the payment of income (such as wages and salaries). Expenditure based on borrowings and existing wealth – i.e., "injections" such as fixed investment – can add to total spending.
The basic circular flow of income model consists of six assumptions:
The economy consists of two sectors: households and firms.
Households spend all of their income (Y) on goods and services or consumption (C). There is no saving (S).
All output (O) produced by firms is purchased by households through their expenditure (E).
There is no financial sector.
There is no government sector.
There is no overseas sector.
In the simple two sector circular flow of income model the state of equilibrium is defined as a situation in which there is no tendency for the levels of income (Y), expenditure (E) and output (O) to change, that is:
This means that the expenditure of buyers (households) becomes income for sellers (firms). The firms then spend this income on factors of production such as labour, capital and raw materials, "transferring" their income to the factor owners. The factor owners spend this income on goods which leads to a circular flow of income.
In this very simple model of the whole economy, it is assumed that the households own all the factors of production. They sell these factors to the firms, earning rent on their land, wages for the use of their labour, and profit and interest for the use of their capital. This is shown on the left hand side of the diagram. The green line shows the factors of production going from the households to the firms and the red line shows the money payments by the firms for these factors going back to the households.
The firms then use these factors to produce goods and services. Then the households buys these goods and services, using the income they earned from the sale of their factors. This is shown on the right hand side of the diagram. Again, the green line represents movements of the physical and the red line shows the movement of the money.
Although this model is very simple, it does emphasise one very important point. When measuring the size of an economy, or the level of economic activity, there are three ways of doing it. In the diagram above you can see that three of the four moving lines have also been labelled in black. The 'rent, wages, profit and income' branch represents total income of the economy. The 'goods and services' branch represents the total output of the economy and the 'expenditure on goods and services' branch represents the total expenditure of the economy.
So the size of an economy can be measured using either the income, output or expenditure method. Notice that the three methods should give exactly the same answer. It is fairly obvious that the amount of money spent must equal the value of the goods and services that this money is spent on. Although less obvious, it should make sense that the amount of money spent will equal the income of the spenders, assuming that none of this income is saved. This brings us to another key point. There are no injections into this circularflow and no leakages from the circular flow (like saving) at this stage. Hence, Income = Output = Expenditure.
In the real world, we know that there are more 'players' in an economy than simply households and firms. The '3-sector' model includes the government sector. For the purposes of the circular flow diagram, governments do two things: they tax businesses and consumers, and they then spend this money on consumers (benefits and pensions) and businesses (subsidies). The diagram below includes the government sector.
We now have the following situation: E = C + I + G, Y = C + S + T and Y = E in equilibrium, so:
I + G (by cancelling the Cs)
The situation is a little more complicated now. We have two leakages (saving and taxation) and two injections (investment and government spending). Now that we have a situation where actual saving does not necessarily have to equal actual investment. Now, saving and taxation together have to equal investment and government spending together. This means that investment can be greater than saving as long as taxation is higher than government spending (and vice versa).
We are still missing something. We have not yet included the foreign sector, or exports and imports. Notice that in the diagram below, X denotes exports and M denotes imports. Don't ask why, that's just the way it is!
The foreign sector box has been added on the right of the diagram. The black line for imports (M) comes out of the red consumption (C) line. This is because it is the consumers who buy these imports (like German and Japanese cars) which means that money leaks out of the economy. The injection into the economy is the exports (X). This black line rejoins the red consumption line because exports are consumption by foreigners of UK goods and services.
So, now our equilibrium formula will look like this:
I + G + X (by cancelling out the Cs)
S, T and M are the leakages from an economy and I, G and X are the injections into an economy. The economy will only be in equilibrium if injections equal leakages.
You may have seen in many textbooks the fact that National expenditure, or aggregate planned expenditure, is equal to C + I + G + X − M. The reason why M is included, but not S or T is that imports are a sub-group of consumption (or C). C includes all consumption by UK consumers, including the consumption of imports as well as home produced goods. This has to be taken away because it is a leakage. S and T are also leakages, but are not contained within C, I, G or X. They are separate and not part of expenditure, so they are not included.
The "5–Sector' Model
The five sector model of the circular flow of income is a more realistic representation of the economy. Unlike the two sector model where there are six assumptions the five sector circular flow relaxes all six assumptions. Since the first assumption is relaxed there are three more sectors introduced. The first is the Financial Sector that consists of banks and non-bank intermediaries who engage in the borrowing (savings from households) and lending of money. In terms of the circular flow of income model the leakage that financial institutions provide in the economy is the option for households to save their money. This is a leakage because the saved money can not be spent in the economy and thus is an idle asset that means not all output will be purchased. The injection that the financial sector provides into the economy is investment (I) into the business/firms sector. An example of a group in the finance sector includes banks such as Westpac or financial institutions such as Suncorp.
The next sector introduced into the circular flow of income is the Government Sector that consists of the economic activities of local, state and federal governments. The leakage that the Government sector provides is through the collection of revenue through Taxes (T) that is provided by households and firms to the government. For this reason they are a leakage because it is a leakage out of the current income thus reducing the expenditure on current goods and services. The injection provided by the government sector is Government spending (G) that provides collective services and welfare payments to the community. An example of a tax collected by the government as a leakage is income tax and an injection into the economy can be when the government redistributes this income in the form of welfare payments, which is a form of government spending back into the economy.
The final sector in the circular flow of income model is the overseas sector which transforms the model from a closed economy to an open economy. The main leakage from this sector are imports (M), which represent spending by residents into the rest of the world. The main injection provided by this sector is the exports of goods and services which generate income for the exporters from overseas residents. An example of the use of the overseas sector is Australia exporting wool to China, China pays the exporter of the wool (the farmer) therefore more money enters the economy thus making it an injection. Another example is China processing the wool into items such as coats and Australia importing the product by paying the Chinese exporter; since the money paying for the coat leaves the economy it is a leakage.
In terms of the five sector circular flow of income model the state of equilibrium occurs when the total leakages are equal to the total injections that occur in the economy. This can be shown as:
Savings + Taxes + Imports = Investment + Government Spending + Exports

Review this movie
Mar 13, 2011I grew up close to the Ford plant in Dagenham that dominated the local economy. So I probably have a vested interest in loving this film. Actress Sally Hawkins is superb in the lead role as a young woman from a council estate who is tired of injustice and inequality and ends up leading her work mates out on a strike that had a profound global impact.
This is revolutionary history and it all started with a couple of hundred women that changed the world. I couldn't believe how often it provoked tears in me (I'm a man by the way). I found it thoroughly engaging and entertaining and it even has a great soundtrack. Probably the most entertaining "political" film I've ever seen.… Expand
Gamely depicts an interesting bit of history, but its real message is a matter of principle.

Bio and Links
I was born in Hoboken, New Jersey and grew up in Hudson and Bergen County before settling in Sussex County. When I was a boy I listened to family members talk about the Italian, German, French, Irish and Native American (Mohawk) ancestry that runs through my blood. Growing up with no father and having a mother who supported five kids and worked three jobs was very tough on the whole family. I needed someone or something, I didn't know. I started hunting for snakes at the local cemeteries and found myself surrounded by tombstones that I really didn't pay attention too. Just about that time I saw a television series "Roots" by Alex Haley. I was amazed on how he traced his family all the way back to Africa, I was hooked! When I was in Basic Training at Fort Sill, Oklahoma someone told me about Geronimo's grave being on post, well I was excited and had to see it. I had served in the military for 8 years. When my father heard that I was in the Army he told my family that he needed to see me. It was a year and a half before Desert Storm. This meeting took place at his apartment in North Bergen and from that day on, I had my father's connection that I was missing my whole life. But life itself isn't fair and on the day I was supposed to see him in uniform, he suffered a major heart attack. That connection was broke forever and so I searched for someone or something once again to fill that void in my life. It took a couple of years but I had finally found that missing piece. It was genealogy and like a lightning bolt I was struck, big time. That lead me to findagrave.com, slowly but surley I now arrived to my Africa. I hold my dearest memories not only to humans but animals too. I had two loving cats in my life, Ginger and Kizzy.

LTC Wallace B. Ioor
Gregory, a well-meaning volunteer answered a photo request for LTC Wallace Ioor's grave site, but he took a photo of his father and mother's stone instead, Dr. William B. Wallace and Ann Bolyn Mathewes Ioor. I ask him to remove the incorrect photo and the volunteer removed it. However; the incorrect birth and death dates have not been removed. His father, Dr. William Ioor, born Jan. 4, 1780 died Jul. 30, 1850. According to Civil War historians, LTC Wallace Ioor was born in Savannah Georgia in 1821 and died in Arkansas in 1879. He was married, twice in fact and I'm going to link his four sons today. Please remove the incorrect birth and death dates. LTC Wallace Ioor could not have lived from 1780 to 1850 and served in the Civil War! I have been researching this family for over a year now and would appreciate it so much if this correction was made.

14th New Jersey soldier
Hello, I found your Virtual Cemetery on the 14th NJ and since you have expertise on them, I was wondering if you could help me figure out a soldier who died as a Prisoner of War at Augusta, Ga.
He is listed in the burial register as:
A. Bangsley, Co A 14th New Jersey. Died March 6, 1864 at Augusta, Ga.
The VA grave locator has him listed as RANSCLEY.
I could not find either name in the roster. Do you have any resources that would help figure out who this is?

Victor Drake grave at Laurel Hill, Pa.
Hi Greg,
I hope you can help me. I'm trying to verify if Victor Drake is, in fact, buried at Laurel Hill cemetery on the grounds of Grey Towers in Milford, Pa.
I have a list of surnames from Grey Towers, and Drake is among them, but no "Victor."
He was, for a time, editor of the Independent Republican in Goshen, NY, the next town over from me. I want to write about him, but need to verify where he was buried. I also see there is no photo of a grave marker. Can you tell me how you learned he is supposed to be buried in Laurel Hill at Grey Towers?
Thank you so much for your help and what you do to preserve the memories of the deceased--and enlighten the public.

nov 6 seminar
My husband, Bob, and I recently gave a presentation at the Hunterdon County Library about the cemeteries of the county for the Tricentennial. Included in this event is a county-wide �scavenger hunt� where participants will return on Nov 6 and collect prizes for their participation at the Main Branch Library. We wanted to make that return lecture an informal meet and greet where anyone interested in getting involved, whether it be in cemetery restoration, work at the Historical Society with cemetery records, working in support of specific cemeteries, or with findagrave. Whatever it may be, and offering a way for like minded cemetery folks to network, share resources, advice, and the like. I am extending an invitation, hoping you are available and would like to come out and share you own expertise with the group. It�s, November 6, 7-9 PM at the Hunterdon County Main Branch Library. If you can make it let me know, thanks.

Request for Transfer # 8641194
Dear Mr. Spesh,
Thank you for approving relationship updates for Maj. General Peter Conover Hains Sr. - I have just sent a request to update his death date. I am his direct descendent and would be honored if you would please transfer his memorial to me. My ID is: #48545502
As his son, Peter Conover Hains Jr. is my great-grandfather it is your duty to transfer his memorial over to me. If you would be so kind to do so, in order for me to update his bio and death information, I would greatly appreciate it.
Again, if would be an honor and much appreciated if I could have both men's memorials transferred. You will of course retain the record of creating the memorial.
Thank you again in advance,

My programmer is trying to persuade me to move to .net from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because of the costs. But he\'s tryiong none the less. I\'ve been using WordPress on numerous websites for about a year and am anxious about switching to another platform. I have heard excellent things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can transfer all my wordpress posts into it? Any kind of help would be really appreciated!

Businesses in the adult entertainment industry – and outside of it – from today have the opportunity to register or block .xxx domain names that match their trademarks. ICM Registry, which has operated .xxx since it signed a contract with ICANN earlier this year, has launched a three-pronged "sunrise period" that will run for …
The real USA method
Send the registrar a registered letter from your lawyer notifying them of all your trademarks and notifying them that they are not authorized to use them.
If they allow someone else to register one of your trademarks, you sue them.
$80 no deterrent
The companies who park domains can make some serious cash. Don't doubt the registration fee will put off the little guy from trying it on but would still expect to see the usual litany of parked domains serving nothing but adverts. Well I would expect that the people who attempt to visit XXX sites would, of course I would never try to view such things, ahem.
Good idea, Trev.
The new xxx TLD is more or less blackmailing businesses who don't want to have their brand associated with porn. This is a really bad move. Why are they automatically protecting the rich and famous from others buying a xxx domain with their name in it? Surely these people can afford the $200 themselves to block it. I won't be buying a xxx domain to protect my brand as a matter of principle, but I hope whoever buys the equivilient doesn't have too sick a website!
This is a genius idea
This is basically a licence to print money - it's a great idea by ICM.
Porn operators aren't actually interested in the domain, as it's far too simple for *.xxx to be blocked any number of ways, so their potential visitor base is reduced. Instead, by simply saying "Nice .com you've got there, be a shame if anyone registered the .xx version of it, wouldn't it?" ICM get a decent wodge of protection, I mean "defensive registration" money, and it doesn't matter how many .xxx domains are actually registered.
Obviously the knowledgeable types - i.e. us lot - wouldn't bother paying up for this as we know there's no point, but that doesn't matter - it's not us they're after. It's the managers, the brand owners, the PR departments - all of whom will say "Oh, it's only a few hundred bucks? Just do it".
So, who's up for registering .sex next?
And .crap, .sucks, etc, etc
Anyone who doesn't want one of those suffixes attached to their brand name just has to pay a few hundred dollars ... per suffix.
Don't worry ...
all the really good stuff will still be on .com
These domains just don't seem enticing,,,,,
Oooh, wait a minute.
I hate you
I just had a vision of a greasy student from my local Dixions showing me a "handheld device" while naked.
Pass the mind-bleach please.
I think you mean
Sun rises over .xxx smut domain
At first I was thinking… "Surely that should be Oracle rises…"
They wouldn't let me register www.xxx, though http.xxx was still available last time I looked so you'd be able to have the address email@example.com xxx.xxx is gone, probably all the 3 lettered ones grabbed too. firstname.lastname@example.com would have been an awesome email address too. Oh well. could have been greate for some email filter testing/spam collecting!
Which also makes me wonder, is anyone going to have non-www things going on with .xxx? Are people going to have firstname.lastname@example.com email addresses? And would having a .xxx be MORE or LESS likely to get spam email?
Very curious how this plays out from, uhm, a purely technical aspect. Yes, that's it. Purely technical.
(seriously, how could would email@example.com have been!)
this is content..
I agree... it would have been very could. Or cool even :)
http://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx would be an epic address to send people to.
I'm curious to how the whole pr0n vs non-pr0n would work. Could a manufacturer of tubes designed especially for transmitting red light be able to stick some scantly clad ladies on their homepage and win the rights to redtube.xxx?
Paris, because she's probably got to go to arbitration against herself.
Cheap Shot
Love the sub headline....And I thought this was a serious Organ.
Dear MP,
I am shocked and disgusted that my Timmy can see ".xxx" on his Internets. This is simply pushing vile and disgusting porn to our children and raising a nation of paedophile rapists.
I must insist that the UK government immediately ban this vile filth from our shores. Without such a ban in place to protect the children, the UK government is saying that it supports the idea of importing raw-filth into the homes of decent, up-standing Britons. This is really a terrible stance for you to take.
Ban this sick filth now!
Yours sincerely,
Angry of Barking
Resolving conflicts
"When two or more applications are made for resolving .xxx domains, the applicants will have to fight it out at auction."
Surely there's more appropriate ways of doing it. Naked wrestling, perhaps? Or just have each company make up a "Top Trumps" set from their stars characteristics, and play two out of three for it.
Wonder if there's any brave souls going for www.iPorn.xxx
Wouldn't it just have been easier to say that you can't have the same name under both .com and .xxx?
"Uniform Dispute Resolution Policy"
When talking about porn sit-
Never mind.
Must stop writing that when describing how to connect to web server on a LAN.
I fervently hope
that Prince Edward is at this moment reserving www.esse.xxx for his Earldom domain name. And some enterprising candlemaker must be considering www.aaa.xxx?
Can I register gov.co.uk.xxx

Jerusalem, Israel -- Tibetan spiritual leader the Dalai Lama is expected to visit Israel next year to establish a Buddhist stupa near Arada in south of the Jewish State. The establishment of the Buddhist structure has been planned by artistes Ruth Katz, Ifrat Farshalom and Sefi Hanegbi, Ha'aretz daily reported today.
Two Tibetan monks would visit the place on Sunday to perform a small ritual and ask for forgiveness of plants and animals there for establishment of the stupa.
Katz would meet the Dalai in February to consult about the structure and collect some objects from him which would be put on the stupa.
The Dalai is expected to visit Israel in July next year for establisment of the stupa, the paper said Hanegbi has also established a spiritual centre called 'Desert Time' (Jaman Midbar in hebron) near Arada towards the end of Yehuda desert, the paper said, adding the centre offers courses on healing, yoga and medicines.

This blog features news on local food finds, tales from home cooks and inspiration to help you have fun in your own kitchen.
CSA Journal: 5 quick lessons from the CSA box
Four months of cooking through a big box of assorted vegetables each week made me a more agile home cook in a lot of ways. Here are some of my favorite techniques I learned, some thanks to Front Burner readers.
- You don't have to wait for water to boil or a grill to heat to have good corn on the cob.
Reader Steve Blancard told me his favorite way to eat corn is "husked, rubbed with butter and then roasted on the grill over hot coals," and seasoned with Old Bay. But when he's pressed for time–as we are lately–he recommends using the microwave.
I'd heard bits and pieces about microwaving corn on the cob, but I'd never really thought it would work. After getting Steve's e-mail and bringing a newborn into our home, we decided to give it a try.
According to his method, you put unhusked corn straight into the microwave and cook it on high for about four minutes per ear (Exact time will depend on the strength of your microwave–ours takes about 3 and a half minutes per ear.).
Be sure to use oven mitts to remove it, because it will be hot. Once it's out of the oven, cut off the end of the corn ear that was attached to the stalk with a sharp knife. Once you do this, you should be able to slide the ear out of the husks without dealing with those pesky silks that make husking corn such a mess.
Give it a try, it's a quick, easy way to get good corn on the cob on the table on a hectic night.
- When it comes to raspberries, live in the now.
The late-summer raspberries we got from our Snead's CSA were really top-notch. They had a sweetness that not many raspberries achieve.
I had a tendency to want to ration them out to enjoy them as long as possible, while my husband preferred eating them by the huge bowlful.
Turns out, he was right. If you find yourself with good raspberries, by all means eat them quickly, because the really ripe ones won't last long before they start spoiling.
- Gardening decisions will be easier next year.
Poring over seed catalogs can be dangerous if you don't have a plan. You get over-ambitious, order all kinds of things that look interesting and fun, and then have way more work on your hands than you can handle come growing season.
Going through a summer with a CSA share (and planning to continue that share next year) has made it a lot more clear what I need to put in the ground next spring. Tomatoes (you can never have enough), herbs, maybe one zucchini plant, and lettuce for salads will pretty much keep me from having to spend any of my weekly food budget on produce.
- Think in terms of techniques, not specific vegetables.
You don't always have to go to Epicurious.com and find a recipe that specifically calls for kohlrabi, or kale, or whatever it is that showed up in your CSA box this week. If you start to group vegetables in terms of their textures and cooking qualities, you can adapt one technique to an entire family of them.
For example, I now think stir fry when I see many spring vegetables, from green beans to Napa cabbage to, yes, kohlrabi. And I use the same stir-fry recipe and technique for all of these types of vegetables.
Greens, like kale or chard, tend to put me in the mood for baked dishes like lasagnas, quiches or tart-type dishes like spanakopita.
Tender summer veggies like okra and summer squash get me thinking about stewing them in a tomato-based sauce with some onions and garlic.
Eggplant, onions and bell peppers send me reaching for my roasting pan.
The great thing about tomatoes, though, is you don't have to do a thing to them–the ultimate low-maintenance food.
- With great sides, who needs a main?
One of the most satisfying meals I had all summer came just days after I brought my son home from the hospital. My mom was helping us, and she cooked some of the great variety of that early-July box into an array of vegetable side dishes. There was sauteed corn, squash casserole, blanched broccoli and plain old sliced tomatoes.
It hit the spot and reminded me that vegetables can hold their own on a plate. There's not always a need for a meat or heavy bean- or grain-based "main dish" when you have so many great smaller dishes to choose from.
If you cook like this, your CSA box can really earn its keep in your weekly food budget, as you won't feel the need to buy meat or other ingredients for an "entree" to accompany all your beautiful farm-fresh vegetables. Work with what you have, and you'll feed yourself well.

November 28, 2014
A Nebraska lawmaker who is leaning toward a run for governor is scheduled to make an announcement in his hometown of Fremont.
Sen. Charlie Janssen says he will speak at noon Monday at Midland University. He previously has said that he is seriously interested in running for governor, and that he expects to announce his decision by the end of February.
Janssen, a Republican, is known for his strong opposition to illegal immigration. He also has introduced guns-rights bills this year and is trying to end state-funded prenatal care coverage for illegal immigrants.
Former Lt. Gov. Rick Sheehy had declared that he would run in 2014, but has been returning donor checks following his resignation earlier this month.

[Kendall Jenner & Harry Styles: Getty Images]
Things are heating up between the beautiful Kendall Jenner and the equally dreamy One Directioner Harry Styles. After being spotted together at a swanky restaurant in LA last month, this blossoming romance - or ahem 'friendship' as the pair are keen to call it – is gaining strength by the minute.
The latest installment of Karry Stenner or Kenry (as the avid fans of One Direction have dubbed the young couple) is being spotted leaving the Gansevoort Hotel in New York together on Saturday morning. See the juicy pictures here! Despite being swarmed by paparazzi and fans alike, the genetically blessed pair enjoyed a breakfast together and looked blissfully happy in each other's company. N'aww.
The younger sister of the Kardashian clan wore skinny denim and flashed her enviable midriff in a white cropped cowl neck teamed with a relaxed military style jacket and Louis Vuitton bag. Not one to be shown up, fash pack fav and FROW regular Harry Styles opted for a camel duffel coat and a headscarf to tame those signature locks of his.
With backing from the the notoriously difficult to please One Direction fans, Kendall Jenner and Harry Styles are set to be the new hot power couple to contend with – watch out Kimye, Kenry are coming for ya!

Tell TJ I forgot my diamond earrings, too!! I know how you feel, I always feel on the frump side - but I find myself laughing at high-heel wearing women, struggling with their bags:). Don't worry about it, you are BEAUTIFUL, seriously, don't stress. You never look a mess!!ReplyDelete
I always take my own pillow with me on vacation too! Hotel pillows are junk. I never know how girls manage to look cute while on a plane, I always want to be comfortable!ReplyDelete
That's my husband's tag line too! He's right, except when we go visit his family in Eastern KY!!
Have a great trip! I think it's more important to be comfortable (esp. for long trips) than runway fashionable. You'll be just as cute and those other girls will wish they had taken your route!
I always get stressed while packing too! I make long lists of everything i need...haha. I'd suggest jeans, boots, singlet & a zip up/wrap jumper so you can adjust easily if it gets hot/cold.ReplyDelete
I have no idea how to dress comfortably AND cute on a plane. I fail at it.
As for the lists? I always print them out, and cross them off once they're all packed up.
I just went through this same thing! I had to pack four for an eight day vacation that included a cruise, which has its own specific packing challenges. I about went mental!

So, I've been working on Maximizing My Mornings using an e-book I recently found online. I am definitely seeing a pattern emerge in my life. Monday, Tuesday, and usually Wednesday are super productive days. However, after Wednesday's late night at church, my physical and emotional energy are drained, and Thursday and Friday pretty much bottom out. I plan a lot of outings on these days, partly to socialize and partly to avoid the tasks I need to be doing at home. Now that I've identified that pattern, I'm not quite sure how to break out of it. Any thoughts?
I have to say, my morning worship CD has been great, and really helped me establish a regular habit of prayer and Bible study in the morning (where previously, it was squeezed in wherever). Exercise has not made it to the top of the priority list, and I've noticed myself looking less and less at the to-do list (another avoidance tactic, I'm sure!).
This week, I'm planning on mapping out my whole week (tentatively) and putting it on my whiteboard in the hall– very visual and hard to escape. The original Maximize Your Mornings e-book recommended putting 3 three on the to-do list each day, not counting quiet time, exercise, and dinner. I have found that not all tasks are created equal. For example, cleaning out the fridge might take an hour while trying to design a Legacy Milestones handout for the church board might take two and half hours (or more!) I've got to learn to take the estimated time commitment into consideration too.
As a work-at-home mom, sometimes it's tough for me to find a balance between running a home day care, taking care of my own kids, Children's ministry stuff, blogging, and home-making. We'll keep at it though! For all you ladies further down the road from me, any advice is welcome!

text: The airplane porpoised during landing, which resulted in the collapse of the nose landing gear. The pilot stated that he noticed the airplane was "higher than normal and a little fast" during final approach and to correct he "added full flaps slowing down to the right speed, but noticed a faster descent rate." The pilot reported that he increased engine power to arrest the descent, but during the landing flare the airplane's nose "dropped and hit the runway first and ballooned the aircraft back into the air quite abruptly." The pilot stated that he "immediately applied full power for a go around ... the aircraft turned slightly to the right because of a slight crosswind, and there was not enough altitude to nose down and raise the flaps at the same time." The pilot reported that the airplane's nose "sharply dropped and hit the nose gear on the runway for a second time and broke off, hitting the prop and stopping the engine." The pilot stated that the airplane impacted a taxiway sign before coming to a stop. The pilot reported that the accident could have been prevented if he had initiated a go-around after noticing the airplane was not on a stabilized final approach.

An array of twister machines are seen at the Engineered Floors carpet manufacturing plant near Calhoun, Ga.Photo by John Rawlston.
Engineered Floors investing $350 million
Documents filed with a state agency show that a carpet company expects to invest $350 million to complete one of two new factories planned for Georgia.
Engineered Floors filed documents with the Department of Community Affairs saying the project should generate almost $7 million a year in local sales and property tax revenue.
The planned facility is a 2 million-square-foot manufacturing center. The Calhoun, Ga.-based company in May announced that it would build two new plants in northwest Georgia. It has said it will hire 2,400 workers at the plants in Whitfield and Murray counties.
Decatur may get $500,000 grant
Tennessee Gov. Bill Haslam on Thursday recommended a $500,000 Appalachian Regional Commission Grant to provide upgrades to the wastewater treatment plant in Decatur, Tenn.
Funds provided by the ARC grant would go toward improving the plant, which operates above capacity 40 percent of the time.
Currently, there is a sewer moratorium in place and no new customers, including any new industries, can be added until the upgrades are complete.
The grant would be matched with $1.2 million from the local community. The project will serve 542 residential customers.

98104: Responsiveness, and Why We Don't Have It
In this country, citizens across a broad spectrum of diverse backgrounds don't often come together over a cause. We just don't organize much anymore. Our rights and liberties were bought and fought for some time ago. Or so we think – We expect our water and electricity to just work. We expect to easily cross neighborhood...
People of Pioneer Square
My name is Christine Haskell and I started People of Pioneer Square (#PeopleofPSQ) to put a face on my neighborhood. Pioneer Square is Seattle's most popular vice district and the heart of the city (historically and architecturally). I believe that vice districts are created due to benign deglect.

Abbey Lee Kershaw faints on catwalk at Alexander McQueen
Abbey Lee Kershaw literally took a little turn on the catwalk at the Alexander McQueen show. The Australian model fainted as she tried to exit the runway and had to be carried off.
According to her agent, Kathy Ward of Chic Models, the 19-year-old started to feel weak after being cinched into an a very tight leather corset (pictured right).
"As she was coming off the catwalk she began to take tiny steps as she felt she was going to faint and she did just as she came off,'' said Ward. "The corset was incredibly tight but she was absolutely fine afterwards and even continued to appear at more shows,'' she said.
It hasn't been a smooth couple of weeks for Abbey, she also lost her footing at the Rodarte show in New York recently, taking a tumble in her high heels. Oh dear..

Greenwich Foot Tunnel is now officially closed
(If you've come here via a search engine, you should find the current foot tunnel status here.)
853 exclusive: Greenwich Council has officially closed Greenwich Foot Tunnel to the public following a series of lift failures, leaving pedestrians and cyclists to pay for detours.
The tunnel to the Isle of Dogs is undergoing major renovation works, along with its sister crossing at Woolwich, which are due to be completed by April.
But with the stairs taken out of service in September, users have had to rely on increasingly unreliable lifts, which now appear to have broken down altogether. The Woolwich tunnel closed in November because of problems with the stairs while the lifts were being replaced, and is not due to reopen until March.
Greenwich tunnel users are now greeted with a public notice stating the tunnel was formally closed to the public from 4 February "because of the likelihood of danger to the public (and the need to carry out emergency lift repair works)" for 21 days, or until the work is completed.
Pedestrians can use the DLR between Cutty Sark and Island Gardens, but cyclists either have to pay to use the Thames Clippers boat service to Masthouse Terrace Pier – if it is running – or take a detour via Tower Bridge, Rotherhithe Tunnel or Woolwich Ferry.
Despite this notice being dated 4 February, no announcement has been made about it on the Greenwich Council website since then, nor has it appeared in its weekly newspaper, Greenwich Time. The council has been using its Twitter feed to give day-to-day updates on the tunnel's status without referring to any closure order.
The last update to the council's telephone information line (020 8853 2988) was on Monday, and merely states that both tunnels are closed without giving a planned reopening date.
To make matters worse, work is now running behind schedule. Work on the stairwells at the Greenwich tunnel was meant to be finished in January to enable the lifts, themselves only installed in 1992, to be replaced.
The lack of information on the tunnel closure has been criticised by local Labour MP Nick Raynsford as well as Ken Livingstone's running-mate for the London mayoralty, Val Shawcross.
Liberal Democrat Assembly member Caroline Pidgeon wrote to Greenwich Council leader Chris Roberts last week about the unreliable service in the foot tunnel.
"The foot tunnel is an absolutely key component in the London cycle and pedestrian network… the closure of the tunnel has a significant effect on people's ability to cross the river," she said in the letter.
"Many people are angry that the tunnel has been closed with no warning because this often compels people to use more dangerous routes, such as the Rotherhithe Tunnel, and gives people no time or warning to plan alternative, safer routes to their destination."
6.45PM UPDATE: Greenwich Council did not respond to a request for comment sent to them early on Thursday morning. However, its Twitter feed confirmed the story was true, in a roundabout way:
The "end of next week" is, coincidentally, at the end of the 21-day closure period for the tunnel. The council's foot tunnels web page has also been changed, although users have to scroll down to discover news of the tunnel closures.
10AM FRIDAY UPDATE: London Assembly member Caroline Pidgeon has attacked Greenwich Council's "incompetence" in its handling of the closures, while a letter from council leader Chris Roberts refusing to answer questions on the foot tunnel revamp has also emerged. More at The Scoop. Docklands 24 has also followed the story up (and linked back to me, which is lovely of them.)
2:15PM FRIDAY UPDATE: Greenwich Council has released this statement: "Greenwich Council is carrying out a major investment programme to renew the Greenwich and Woolwich foot tunnels, which are around 100 years old.
"The work was planned in consultation with cyclists, traders and tunnel users and a schedule of work was put in place to enable pedestrians and cyclists to use the lifts while the stairs are being renewed, and vice versa. Alternative means of crossing the river were put in place for all but a few hours each week.
"Regrettably, the Council has now had to take the decision to close the Greenwich Foot Tunnel temporarily while refurbishment work on the stairs is completed.
"Greenwich Council apologises for the inconvenience caused to users. We wish to stress that this is very much a temporary situation with the newly refurbished stairs expected to reopen by the end of February."

How long before "cuts" will give them the excuse they need to shut one or both foot tunnels?
Another crossing in East & South East London down. How are we supposed to be mobile any more in this part of London??????
Bloody hell. It's lucky I don't use the tunnel much!
What is the point of having a council run paper if it doesn't include important info such as the closure of a major link for cyclists and pedestrians to east London?
The whole thing has been a shambles – at the very least, the Council should have put alternative arrangements in place for pedestrians and cyclists when the tunnel has been closed. Instead, pedestrians have to pay out of their own pocket to cross the river via DLR and cyclists are barred even from that.
The twitter updates have been worse than useless. I saw a few last month but after that, nothing. It would be better to have no updates rather than the occasional one.
Bah – I loved those lift attendants and their little transistor radios. But CCTV is always much better than having an actual human around. Everyone knows that. They increase safety – it's good to know that if you're mugged or stabbed, grainy footage of it will probably exist.
The sad thing about all this is the cavalier way in which the Council have run the whole thing. Right at the beginning when the foot tunnel closures were mooted people were asking how they would get from A to B, especially cyclists.
Can you imagine if this was one of the road tunnels instead? Talk about treating walkers and cyclists as second class citizens.
As a previous user of the Greenwich Foot Tunnel I then switched my route to travel via the Woolwich tunnel. I now notice that despite previous comments the 'official' sign on the lifts now says that Woolwich will be shut until Spring 2012 and not March 2011
As far as Tower Hamlets is concerned the tunnel might well not exist, I never see any information in their weekly "newspaper" about the closure fiasco.
I went over to Woolwich to investigate the situation a few weekends ago – I'm no architect but the Woolwich foot tunnel certainly doesn't look like its a couple of weeks from reopening… I agree that its amazing that Greenwich's website is noteable for its absence of information on the subject. Shameful really

Except for the distant whine of cars on Interstate 20, filtered through parched hills of mesquite, you'd easily forget you were anywhere near Dallas. Cedar Hill State Park, on the shores of Joe Pool Lake, offers the closest-to-unspoiled scenery you'll find in Dallas County, as well as attractive campsites and picnic areas. Lots of people come here to swim in the summer, but we avoid them and head for the web of hiking trails on the south side of the park. Amid the rolling hills and thickly scented forest and prairie greenery, we imagine we live someplace wild and picturesque, and the illusion holds pretty well until you spot a speeding SUV hauling a pair of Jetskis. Outdoor nuisances aside, you can almost always find a wilderness space to yourself at Cedar Hill State Park. Buy a $50 Conservation Pass and use the park (as well as any other state park) year-round; otherwise, the single-day fee is $10.

Carmelo Comberiati, Ph.D.
Professor, Music History
Mel Comberiati combines teaching duties with a continued focus upon research into transitional eras of music history and the development of new courses. Professor Comberiati holds a Ph.D. in Historical Musicology from the University of Michigan, Ann Arbor, a Masters of Arts in Music Theory from Binghamton University and a Bachelor of Science in Music Education from New York University. He also studied as a Fulbright Scholar at the University of Vienna, Austria for two years while researching Renaissance Sacred Music in central Europe and completing a book length study of religious music in the late Renaissance.
Comberiati's greatest joy comes from classroom teaching. He is currently a member of the Music Pedagogy study group of the American Musicological Society, and has taught the bulk of courses in music history at the College since 1983, trying to balance a curriculum of western and non-western courses and classical and popular traditions. He was selected by the Academic Committee of the College Student Government for the Faculty of the Year Award twice, in 1989 and 2004, and was selected for the Alumni Association Distinguished Faculty Award in 1987. In 1994, he took advantage of a National Endowment for the Humanities Grant for College Teachers at Columbia University, to develop a course on Music and German Modernism and he used grants from the Westchester Consortium for International Studies and the New York University Faculty Resources Network, in 1989 and 1990 to develop a course on African and Asian Music. Comberiati was able to return to Vienna twice to further his Renaissance studies thanks to a Manhattanville College Junior Faculty Grant in 1987 and an American Council of Learned Societies Grant in 1988. During the spring 2007 semester, he met with a group of seven students to refine the syllabus for his course: The Beatles within the Context of the 1960s, a subject of long-term interest. That Beatles course is being offered as a seminar for the Castle Scholars Honors Program in spring 2012.

text: The major issues surrounding international migration are how to help countries adapt to large-scale migration, and how to improve its global development impact. Equitable migration is a global concern because it is ultimately linked to other broader issues such as poverty reduction and human rights. Research on this global issue is still in its early stages, however. In 2003 the United Nations appointed a Global Commission on International Migration. This seminar will discuss the complex issues involved in international migration and remittances, such as incentives, governance, and inter-linkages with other issues.
