Incredible - I love it! for such big flowers its light and comfortable. Love it
Creating beautiful headpieces out of lost treasures
Hapitat began when I was going to Ascot with nothing to wear on my head, I decided to create something huge out of left over silk from my homemade wedding dress. My signature huge silk flower headpiece was born, and I've been creating beautiful handmade flowers from recycled and vintage fabric, giant and small and in-between ever since.
I use recycled fabric new and vintage, I scout charity chops, vintage fairs, garage sales and car boot sales for old clothing fabric feathers and lace that have been unloved and unused. I create beautiful timeless headpiece that can start and new story of their own.
I make bespoke headpieces for brides, brides bouquets, flower headbands and wristlets for flower girls, boutonnieres for the groom and the rest of the wedding party, hair flowers for a prom or ball, as well as making charm necklaces from old chandelier pieces and vintage keys.
As well as selling Etsy, I write monthly features for UK Craftseller magazine, do regular craft shows in the Buckingham area, and I also travel around the UK festival scene with my Hapitat recycled flower fascinator workshops where people can lean how to create wonderful headpieces and accessories.
Please get in touch if there is anything you would like me to create for you, I'd be happy to discuss your ideas through with you and hopefully make your dreams become reality.

Could someone capable of doing so get an animated .gif of this creature from Pottermore? A still image wouldn't really do this creature justice, I should think. Should be in the second moment of chapter four, I believe. -- 1337star (Drop me a line!) 00:55, December 21, 2012 (UTC)

What are the pros?
What are the cons?
Grew this pepper for the first time and it was so rewarding. Grew in large containers (12" deep, 36" wide) with three plants to a container and they produced beautifully. Gorgeous, long red peppers. Pests left them alone for the most part. Let them go deeply red for a wonderful sweet flavor.
For the sheer thrill of seeing 9 and 10" peppers hanging off your plants, you should try growing this variety. I feel as though a magic pepper fairy came to my garden this year! These peppers are just amazing - enormous, thick-walled, very aromatic, and just stunning to behold. They are also delicious. Highly recommend these.

Dear Friends of Britannic
my name is Michael Schmelter from Kiel, Germany and i am owner of a 2 person submersible.
I would like to dive to the wreck of the Britannic and so i try to get into contact with the owner of the wreck, Mr. Simon Mills.
The submarine, that i want to bring to Greece is able to go to a depth of 250 meters and may stay there for hours ...
My idea is renting a motor vessel, which should have a crane on deck , that brings the submarine and the crew to the diving spot.
waiting for an answer ... Michael Schmelter

Canned Potatoes
We got seed potatoes a month or so ago and they've been sitting on the back porch waiting to be planted. The spot we planted potatoes in last year wasn't great… it didn't get a lot of sun and was hard to water. We still got a handful of potatoes, but we're hoping for more this weekend. We took the kids to Barnes and Noble to play at the train table this weekend, and I always grab some reading material to browse while they wreak havoc on Thomas and his friends. I grabbed a gardening book, and one good idea it had was to cut an old garbage can in half and plant potatoes in that. Thus, my project this weekend, topped off with some compost from the batch that just finished up:

Cool-lusion: Downplays all the buzzkill over Trump Jr. trying to score a little oppo research and chill.
Remember that movie Practical Magic? Where Sandra Bullock makes that spell for the perfect man, and she looks at the stars and lets the wind take the flower petals into the night? Well, this is kinda like that– except there's no magic. Here is my recipe for how to find the perfect best girlfriend.
She is loyal.
Like Lassie loyal, like no matter what secrets you tell her about your last hook-up and consequential temporary STD, mum's the word. You don't even have to say, "The following run on sentences must be kept secret;" she just knows.
She agrees with you always.
I'm not saying she lets your drinking problem turn into a disease "agrees," but sometimes a girl just wants to talk about her first world problems and have her girlfriend go, "Yeah, that really does suck." You want someone besides your inner voice to say, "God, you don't deserve that shit storm that just happened to your beautiful soul! Let's invite more ice cream and get this pity party really rolling."
She gives up things for you.
Say her boyfriend takes her on a beautiful dinner cruise and she gets an S.O.S. text from you. That bitch isn't even staying for the chocolate fountain. She just calmly asserts, "I'm needed elsewhere," chugs her champagne, and jumps into Lake Michigan without a life vest.
She can read your mind.
You zone out in the middle of your salad at lunch, and she knows exactly what you're really worried about. Your left eye twitches, and she knows it's work-related. By the time you open your mouth to say what it is, she's already written a fake doctor's note so you can get out of whatever awful temp job you had the next day and instead go see the penguins at the Shedd Aquarium together (it costs extra, but it's worth it).
She falls down with you.
You have a drinking problem; she'll take another shot, too. You "smoke socially;" she'll buy a pack of Camel Crush and stand outside in the middle of winter with you. Can't sleep most nights? Good, because she can't either, and she's rocking passwords to Netflix, Hulu Plus, and HBO GO. You question your body image? She thinks about her upper arms and agrees to workout maybe sometime next week? Nahh… you'll both be "busy."
She is super-supportive of all your ventures.
You want to open your own meatloaf Pop-Tart bakery? Sounds good! How hard could it be with a Venture One card and some false confidence? Anything is possible. Support each other. Choose joy not jealousy even if it's hard sometimes; I promise you will only make each other better.
She has your back.
A month or so back, I had some haters on the internet say some mean things about me. My girls were outraged, going so far as to hire a hacker to see where the comment came from. Now all of that is extreme (and didn't end up happening), but the idea of having best girlfriends who would be ready for a full-fledged girl fight in some dark alley in East Lakeview made me smile. And then laugh. And then play out the scene in my head… remembering that a few of them could probably really hurt someone.
She loves you like family.
You know how twins say that they can feel each other's pain even miles and miles apart from each other? It's the same for true girlfriends. Every ounce of happiness and every moment of sadness can be felt by the other person like it was actually happening to them. She would do anything for you, no questions asked. Period. Boyfriends, plants, favorite sitcoms: they come and go, but true lady friendship is forever.
She makes you better.
You don't want "moms" as friends in the sense that they judge your moral character and substance abuse every day, but you still need a reality check every once in a while. God, even in regular things like, "Hey remember when you used to paint, and it made you happy? Do that more." Or, "That was a great game, but you can do better." The perfect best friend knows your true potential before even you do.

Book Review: Food Trucks!
Food Trucks! by Mark Todd
From Miss Melanie at Main Library
We can honestly say there haven't been too many other children's books written about food trucks (although we do have a few about ice cream trucks). So Food Trucks! really fills a niche for people who want to learn more about that type of restaurant on wheels.
Miss Melanie says:
"This exciting new book is packed with information on different types of food trucks. Usually seen in big cities, food trucks are a fun way to get some great food that you may not be able to get on a regular menu in a restaurant. In addition to the interesting facts about each kind of food truck, there is a catchy poem. Good for kids of all ages and their adults."
Thanks for an intriguing review, Miss Melanie! Now we'll have to check out the options for food trucks in our local area! Click on the image below to go to our catalog and see if it is available for checking out.
A summary from the publisher says:
"A comical fleet of fourteen food trucks is rolling into town in this fun and informative picture book about the street food craze. Mark Todd's cartoon illustrations and rhyming text introduce this culinary convoy as they take to the streets serving up yummy treats and some surprising facts about America's contemporary chuckwagons."
Betcha can't wait to read it now! (Did we mention it has FOOD in it?!)
More from the Web
Here's a link to food trucks around Ohio and other states.

Plextor's PX-LB950UE 12x External Blu-ray Writer Finally Comes Stateside
A few months ago, the Plextor PX-LB950UE external Blu-ray drive was the talk of the town, boasting a 12x writing speed along with other future-proofed features. Sadly, the drive was for our European friends across the pond, and those of us stateside had only a vague "later this quarter" release date handed to us at CES. Well, the drive is available now.
In case you missed the first announcement, the Plextor PX-LB950UE can connect via eSATA and USB 3.0some of the fastest ports on the market (other than Thunderbolt). The USB 3.0 (blue) port is just starting to come into the mainstream, but if you only have a USB 2.0 (black) port, the 3.0 interface is backwards compatibleyou just won't benefit from the speeds you would get with a USB 3.0-compatible interface. Speed continues to be the theme, as the PX-LB950UE boasts a fast 12x for writing single-layer Blu-ray media and 8x for dual-layer, with an 8MB buffer.
The PX-LB950UE is capable of burning Blu-ray dual-layer discs with a capacity of 50GB (9 hours of HD video) and 25GB for single-layer. While burning, the Plextor Blu-ray drive has a low vibration system that helps avoid skips when playing the disc. The Lightscribe feature is also available, a convenient program that allows you to create labels on any compatible disc. Plextor's own PlexUTILITIES is likely geared more toward the enthusiast crowd, providing a disc and drive analysis tool for those who are meticulous about their drives.
You can find the Plextor PX-LB950UE available through online retailers for the suggested price of $239.99.

Hey there, time traveller!
This article was published 1/8/2007 (3671 days ago), so information in it may no longer be current.
And praise the law.
Especially the Winnipeg Police Service.
On Monday, police arrested the man and woman they allege are the notorious Scam Ma'am and Con Don.
Debra Lynn Loepp, 50, and Norman Earl Friesen were nabbed just more than 14 hours apart.
Friesen at 2 a.m., after uniformed officers pulled him over.
He was allegedly driving a stolen car.
Loepp was collared by commercial crime detectives who located her about 4:30 p.m. in front of an address on Bannatyne Avenue.
Interestingly, Friesen was the name commonly used by the fast-talking, slick-dressing Con Couple, who often passed themselves off as Bible Belt Christians in need of a little emergency cash.
Even more interestingly, Debbie Loepp is the name I supplied to police after Free Press readers repeatedly supplied it to me.
That information, and more, began pouring in after the June 14 initial column on the Con Couple.
It followed the public report about Scam Ma'am that came from an Osborne Village woman who was outraged by her preying on people's naturally trusting big hearts.
The freshly victimized 20-something woman recalled the Scam Ma'am's approach this way:
"She was crying hysterically and told me that her father had suffered a stroke and was in a hospital in Morden while she was stranded in Winnipeg after her car had run out of gas. This woman stared right into my eyes while shedding real tears and explained that she was a nurse who simply wanted to return home to see her father. Naturally, I felt sympathy for the poor woman and offered her some money for gas. I drove her to the nearest ATM and gave her $40. This woman took my contact information and promised to repay me, all the while giving me her heartfelt thanks."
Of course Scam Ma'am never did repay the loan.
Her victim explained in these words why she decided to write:
"I wanted to share my story so that nobody else will give this unethical woman another penny."
For the record, the woman accused of being the Scam Ma'am, Debbie Loepp, was never a nurse. But she did work in that setting. She was once a clerk and telephone operator at Victoria General Hospital.
Loepp now faces 19 counts of fraud that span a 19-month period from New Year's Day 2006 right up to this month. Judging by all the calls, letters and e-mails I've received, those charges represent a mere fraction of the "work" the Scam Ma'am has done over that time.
And even longer.
Ditto the Con Don.
Friesen was charged with two counts of fraud, a charge of driving suspended, another of theft under $5,000 -- which relates to the car stolen from a business on Pembina Highway -- and one more count of uttering threats.
That involves an incident just last week.
But both Loepp and Friesen also face prior charges stemming from a St. Malo church break-in last summer where a guitar was stolen.
There must be some mistake there, though.
The God-fearing Christian Con Couple would never steal from a church.
Anyway, a St. Malo resident who witnessed the break-in followed the suspects all the way to the city, where Winnipeg police intercepted and arrested Loepp and Friesen.
That was July 7, 2006.
They failed to appear in court last February and police have had a warrant out for their arrest ever since.
But police weren't the only ones looking for Debbie Loepp. A reader who knows Loepp's husband says he's been trying to find her too.
He wants a divorce.
Well, I can tell him where he can find her if he hurries.
The Winnipeg Remand Centre.
As I was saying...
And praise the law.

My Digital Representations project is an investigation of the different spinal approaches of the box and delta kites. The box kite's spine runs through its center of mass, in directly holding its exterior structure together. Conversely, the spin in the delta kite acts like the stem of a leaf, the integral member from which all else projects.
Seeing these two approaches, my kite seeks to create a hybrid of these two philosophies. However, it is done in such a way that it can be modulated in the organizational structure of a tetrahedral kite. The advantages of each spinal approach are leveraged in purposeful ways in order to ultimately create flight.
The final iteration is the composition of three sub-components made in a physical model and Rhino model:
These three components work together to achieve air delivery, flexibility, and structural support.

Midfielder Gareth Bale has signed a new four-year contract with Tottenham Hotspur that will keep him at White Hart Lane until 2016, the Premier League club said on Wednesday.
"I've been here for five years now and I've enjoyed every minute," Bale told the Tottenham website (www.tottenhamhotspur.com).
"The fans have been great to me and I'd love to re-pay them and do the very best for them. The club is progressing and I want to be a part of that, so it was great to get the deal done," added the Welsh international who had been linked in the media with a move to Barcelona.
"I love the club and the fans and I want to play my part in trying to get us back into the Champions League – where we belong," he said.
Tottenham are still without a manager following the sacking of Harry Redknapp earlier this month.
Spurs were fourth last season but missed out on the Champions League because Chelsea won the European competition having finished sixth in the table. – Reuters

The sweet taste of 'shroom success
PORT GAMBLE When in doubt, throw it out.
Thats the No. 1 rule of mushroom hunting, according to seasoned hunter Andrew MacMillen and five other shroomsters from the Kitsap Peninsula Mycological Society.
And each would certainly know.
The group headed out for a Tuesday morning hunt last week, traipsing through one of many North End forested areas perfect for the activity, with baskets in hand and mushroom eyes peeled, ready to get down to business.
A hobby with little cost, little risk and a bounty of good, old-fashioned fresh air, mushroom hunting combines the exercise of hiking with the thrills of childhood scavenger hunts, and often leaves hobbyists with a trunk load of fungus the tasty kind for dinner.
Its like a giant Easter egg hunt that you just cant stop, said four-year KPMS member and Bainbridge Island resident Cathy Bellefeuille, who joined the group as a way to get both she and her son outdoors. What else can we do that costs so little and brings that much joy?
Knee-high in forest ferns, the six hunters searched beneath brush, around trees and along fallen logs. As is the case in many wooded areas around the North End, including near Hansville, Kingston and Indianola, their efforts were soon rewarded.
Baskets were brimming after less than two hours, mainly with Chanterelles a popular edible mushroom along with various others, each given due attention to ascertain its type. And identifying those wild morsels proved to be a big part of the fun.
Sometimes the way you identify something is by the spore print, said society member Debbie Moran, who discovered one of the first Elfin Saddle mushrooms of the day. She and her husband, Ted, began scouring for shrooms after he discovered the hobby while out hunting for elk.
MacMillen, hailing from Poulsbo, said each mushroom holds several key characteristics by which it can be identified, but the surest way to discover a ones name, and its edibility, is to ask another hunter. While most are actually not poisonous, those that are can be deadly, and the risk simply isnt worth it.
The best I.D. is somebody else who knows it, he said, adding even after close to 20 years, he still occasionally runs across a mushroom he cant identify. Experience is the best key.
The Chanterelle season begins as early as August, and wraps up in just a few weeks, but like their characteristics, each mushroom has its own growing months, allowing hunters to enjoy the hobby almost year-round. MacMillen said deep winter and summer tend to be slow hunting months, the rest find forests full. Bellefeuille said the key to mushroom hunting is both looking and slowing down, as many fail to realize the treasures over which theyre tromping.
Its been really wonderful because there is so much knowledge, she said of the society, which has taught her how to identify the fungi based partly on where each grows, whether it be on wood, soil, moss or manure. They all have different relationships... They actually do have a function in the world.
For Silverdale resident Alta Shigeta, the hobby does more than provide an enjoyable delicacy.
This is my exercise, she said with a laugh. I dont like to exercise, so this is it.
New KPMS member Rosemary Courtright recently picked up the activity, and said for her it was not only a way to identify mushrooms growing near her own home, but a way to meet others and get to know her surrounding environment. And shes discovered that along with learning to correctly identify mushrooms, hunting etiquette is an important skill as well.
You have to learn the technique, she said. Theres a right way of going about things.
MacMillen said he often will take just half to two-thirds of mushroom patches he discovers. Hunters carry the fungi in baskets to allow spores to fall and spread, replenishing the area. Plastic bags often leave mushrooms gooey.
Other necessary tools for the hunt include a whistle, compass, knife, brush, identification guide and rain gear. A radio and binoculars can be helpful as well.
The Kitsap Peninsula Mycological Society meets at 7:30 p.m. on the third Thursday of each month (except June and July) at the I.O.O.F Hall at 100 S. Dora in Bremerton. Classes for beginners and experienced mushroom hunters, field guides, overnight trips and the opportunity to learn from those who have hunted local edible mushrooms for years are available.

Romeo reportedly will include "They Don't Know" in his new studio album "I Am No Limit" which is yet to have release date. As for Bun B, this rapper is going to list "Countin' Money" in his star-studded affair "Trill O.G." which is slated for August 3 U.S. release.

Syracuse University should get involved with the greater communities it resides in, but only to a point
Syracuse University's recent announcement that two administrators will assess the university's relationship with the greater Syracuse and regional communities will be a worthwhile exploration of how SU interacts with other organizations.
Considering the university is one of the biggest employers in the central New York region, it's important for it to maintain strong relationships within the community it resides in. But while assessing SU's role in the Syracuse area, it's important that the administrators heading the Community Engagement Initiative keep in mind that university resources should be distributed first and foremost for the benefit of SU's students, faculty and staff.
The initiative is meant to integrate resources to address issues within the Syracuse and regional communities, said Bea Gonzalez, vice president for community engagement at SU. Gonzalez added that the initiative also aims to catalog the direct resources SU provides to businesses, government agencies and organizations within the community.
Coupled with the assessment of SU's relationship with the greater community is an analysis on SU's economic impact on the central New York region. Gonzalez and Vice Chancellor for Strategic Initiatives and Innovation Mike Haynie, who also will charge the Community Engagement Initiative, will oversee this analysis, which will be conducted by an external firm.
It is interesting that Chancellor Kent Syverud is undertaking this initiative for SU three years into his tenure rather than tackling it at the start. Former Chancellor Nancy Cantor was a proponent of integrating the university and the greater community, especially through her Scholarship In Action program, but she often did so in an arguably fiscally irresponsible manner.
Syverud's decision to assess the university's relationship with the greater community before creating any collaborative programs is wise because it provides a backbone that Cantor's plan lacked. A final report on the assessment is due to Syverud in May.
And to choose Gonzalez and Haynie, two very respected members of the SU community, to lead the initiative is commendable. Both have extensive relations with the greater community — Haynie is head of SU's Institute for Veterans and Military Families, and Gonzalez is the former head of SU's University College, which enrolls students in the greater community.
Members of the immediate SU community often say the university should interact with and do more for the city and regional communities it resides in. Hopefully the report on the Community Engagement Initiative will provide answers as to how feasible it is for SU to engage to a greater extent with the communities it is a part of.

The True Cost of TARP
What does the fact that, so it now seems, the TARP program will only end up costing taxpayers $25 billion tell us about the merits of the program? According to Jonathan Chait, this low price-tag makes the program "one of the most successful policy initiatives in American history." This is a bad argument. If, as its proponents claim, TARP really did stave off a second Great Depression, then it would have been one of the most successful policy initiatives in American history even if it had cost taxpayers the full $700 billion. On the other hand, if TARP wasn't necessary, then it likely wasn't worth it even at the cost of only $100 per American.
Positive assessments of TARP seem to typically assume that the alternative to TARP would have been doing nothing (actually many opponents of TARP also tend to assume this). But this is not plausible. If Congress had decisively rejected TARP, it's not like Bernanke was going to pull a Ray Patterson and book a cruise to Fiji. Instead we likely would have had an earlier bigger QE I. The overall economy would have ended up roughly in the same place, except that Wall Street would have borne a larger share of the pain.
This, at any rate, is the view of a number of iconoclastic economists on both the left and right. Continue reading
Final TAC College Rankings of 2010
And for most of us, we're done.
With Boise St. and LSU losing, we're down to three title contenders. TCU will need either Oregon or Auburn to lose. In my mind, they need either one to lose big in order to justify TCU getting into the title game b/c of how pitiful TCU's schedule is.
Some random thoughts from the weeked, as it's exam week for me:
A few commenters on Twitter noted the irony of Notre Dame beating the Trojans in a week when the pope had to battle contraception. Everyone can enjoy the sweet, sweet tears of USC fans.
Do college coaches not know about this new fangled thing called the prevent defense? Nevada & LSU, I'm looking straight at you (or am until i burst out in tears b/c we lost to a clearly inferior Arkansas team b/c we didn't play freakin prevent defense. Nope, not bitter at all). Speaking of Nevada, I watched that game (one of the perks of having a newborn is getting to watch late night TV!). A lot of fun to watch as a game, but the stands? This was the big road test for Boise, and the stands for the student section were smaller than my high school. Auburn has to go play in front of 90,000+ Bama fans. It's just not comparable. I just don't know if I can ever justify putting those kinds of schools over a BCS team for a national title.
Does Rich Rod stay at Michigan or do they give him another chance? I don't know how much longer Michigan will be content to be so far behind not only Ohio St., but also Iowa and Wisconsin.
Boise went from the Rose Bowl to the Kraft Fight Hunger. They would play a PAC-10 team but since the PAC-10 can't fill its spots it'll get an ACC team: either BC or Miami, which just fired its coach.
I hate rankings being used as conference tiebreakers, especially when the teams met in the regular season. Use some metric from the season, like points differential instead.
I'm going to hate writing the next sentence, but LSU losing was great for college football. Cries against the BCS would have increased if LSU, whom the media have decided is only lucky, made it in over TCU. This would have increased if Oregon lost and we had an SEC rematch. The same is true for Boise. TCU has no business in the title game this year (they did last year), so I think the anger against the BCS will abate unless one of the big two lose this weekend.
By the way, I'm rooting for South Carolina next weekend. Pay for play is a bad deal, and while logically Auburn ought to go over TCU, emotionally I want those cheaters to watch TCU go over them. Furthermore, that would knock Arkansas out of the BCS bid, sending them to the Cap One bowl instead of us. Yes, I am rooting for LSU to get knocked out of the "better" bowl and go to the Cotton, perhaps to play the Aggies. Sorry, but after last year I never want to go to the Cap One bowl again (ps-dear SEC-when LSU fans are openly hoping to not go to your premiere non-BCS bowl, it's time to change the premiere non-BCS bowl). And yes, I know that they put in a new field but I'd rather Jerryworld than Disney world (the fact that I could maybe convince my wife to take a texas trip but not a Orlando trip has nothing to do with it)
TCU just joined the Big East. While the Big East could use a football school, 17 teams in basketball? Sure, they get exposure but how many teams until you have to contract? If you don't think Mike Slive will be traveling with LSU to Morgantown this fall, you're dead wrong.
Now, for next week I figure there won't be enough to do another set of rankings (not to mention I'll have three exams that week), so the rankings are done for the year. However, our college football stuff will not. I'll ask all the rankers to submit their picks for the bowls with their reasoning behind the picks. I'm not sure if we'll do all the bowls of just the ones after Christmas. When the bowl lineups come out, I'll make a call. However, I also want our readers to participate. So you can send in your picks via comment here or via our facebook page. We can bash each other picks, trash talk etc.
(Speaking of trash talk, is it acceptable to post your team's victory cheer on the facebook page of the opposing team after a win? Ex: an Ole Miss fan posting "Hotty Totty!" on the wall of an LSU fan. I think so, b/c it's not really trash talk, it's just "yay! my team won!" and is fairly harmless, especially if there's a history of playful trash-talk between the two. However, someone recently disagreed with me and told me I was a jerk. I was curious if in fact I am a jerk).
Allright, so to the final rankings!
Wikileaks: US Never Expected Ratzinger Elected as Pope
[Updated Below]
Wikileaks information has been disclosed by Rome Reports that the U.S. intelligence services were completely caught off guard and surprised at the election of then Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger, now Pope Benedict XVI.
[Found another YouTube video that works]
Updated as of 10:40am Central time, 11-30-2010 AD:
U.S. intelligence was expecting a Latin American as the next pope, and predicted that then Joseph Cardinal Ratzinger would have lost in the first round voting.
The rest from Father Zuhlsdorf:
Before the election the staff of the US embassy to the Holy See sent speculations to Washington about the one to be elected.
"The first factor will be age, the cardinals will seek someone who is neither too young nor too old, because they don't want to have another funeral and conclave quickly" but "they also want to avoid having a long pontificate like that of John Paul II." Furthermore, "it will be a person in reasonably good health". Another element will be "linguistic ability" and he will have to know Italian.
Bankruptcy Coming Soon to a State Near You?
Most attention regarding public debt tends to be riveted on the Federal ocean of debt. However, several states have also gotten themselves into a fiscal morass. California faces a pension shortfall of half a trillion dollars. Comparatively speaking, Illinois is in the worst shape of any state in regard to public employee pensions, with a shortfall of 54 billion. Illinois was in the red 13 billion this year and Democrats in the General Assembly want to borrow 4 billion in new debt to make this year's pension payments.
This cannot go on. States like California and Illinois have amassed debts that they simply cannot pay under any reasonable forecast of state tax revenue over the next two decades. Even if spending were slashed to the bone in these states, continuing to operate the state governments and meet the present obliagtions appears to be mathematically impossible. This leaves two options for the debt of these states. The first option is a federal bailout. Although I do relish the image of a bankrupt Federal government bailing out bankrupt state governments, this is simply not going to happen in the current political environment. The second option is that the states go bankrupt. Current law allows local governments, cities, counties, towns, etc to go bankrupt but not states. The bankruptcy code would have to be amended to allow this, and the only way for this to be done is for Congress to do it. Mainstream commenters like Michael Barone are beginning to seriously discuss the prospect of states going bankrupt.
I do not see the political will yet to amend the code in Congress, for the President to sign it if such an amendment were to pass, or for states to declare bankruptcy if the option becomes available. However, I do see it coming eventually. Already California has found it difficult to sell recent bond issues, and Illinois bonds have been downgraded in credit ratings. However, assuming states in fiscal holes reach a point where they can no longer borrow, and we may reach that point sooner rather than later, bankruptcy may be the least terrible option.

More MSM Foolishness on the Condom Kerfuffle
To be honest, I'm a little tired myself of the Great Condom Debate of 2010, and had no intention of blogging about this business. Then I read this article in the Washington Post, and after almost giving myself a concussion from banging my head on the table, felt the need to vent a little. It manages to combine MSM ignorance regarding the nuances of theological debate with some casual Catholic dissidence on a great moral matter. Good times indeed.
The reporter, Michael Ruane, was getting reaction from the parishioners at St. Matthew's Cathedral yesterday. It should be noted that until ten months ago this was my parish, and I'm still heavily involved with it. That the reporter managed to nail down a few people who disagreed with the Church on the issue of contraception is not necessarily an indictment of the Cathedral, as I'm sure he would have – unfortunately – received similar responses at most Churches.
To begin with, Ruane inaccurately summarizes the issue: Continue reading
Newman: Reflections at the Beginning of Advent
"Thine eyes shall see the King in his beauty: they shall behold the land that is very far off." Isaiah xxxiii. 17.
YEAR after year, as it passes, brings us the same warnings again and again, and none perhaps more impressive than those with which it comes to us at this season. The very frost and cold, rain and gloom, which now befall us, forebode the last dreary days of the world, and in religious hearts raise the thought of them. The year is worn out: spring, summer, autumn, each in turn, have brought their gifts and done their utmost; but they are over, and the end is come. All is past and gone, all has failed, all has sated; we are tired of the past; we would not have the seasons longer; and the austere weather which succeeds, though ungrateful to the body, is in tone with our feelings, and acceptable. Such is the frame of mind which befits the end of the year; and such the frame of mind which comes alike on good and bad at the end of life. The days have come in which they have no pleasure; yet they would hardly be young again, could they be so by wishing it. Life is well enough in its way; but it does not satisfy. Thus the soul is cast forward upon the future, and in proportion as its conscience is clear and its perception keen and true, does it rejoice solemnly that "the night is far spent, the day is at hand," that there are "new heavens and a new earth" to come, though the former are failing; nay, rather that, because they are failing, it will "soon see the King in His beauty," and "behold the land which is very far off." These are feelings for holy men in winter and in age, waiting, in some dejection perhaps, but with comfort on the whole, and calmly though earnestly, for the Advent of Christ. Continue reading
The Priest and the Marine
Born on January 3, 1936, one of five kids, Robert R. Brett knew from an early age what the wanted to be. As his sister Rosemary Rouse noted, "He always wanted to be a priest. He was always there for everyone."
He attended Saint Edmond's and Saint Gabriel's grade schools and then attended a preparatory seminary for high school. Brett entered the Marist novitiate at Our Lady of the Elms on Staten Island and made his profession of vows on September 8, 1956. Studying at Catholic University, he received a BA in philosophy in 1958 and a Master's Degree in Latin in 1963. He was ordained a priest of the Society of Mary in 1962 by Bishop Thomas Wade at the Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception.

Pope Benedict and the Great Condom Conundrum
As far as the Great Catholic Condom Conumdrum of 2010 goes (prompted by an excerpt of no more than 2 out of a nearly 200 page book-length interview God and the World), the myriad reactions among Catholic circles, seems to me largely (perhaps loosely) divided among two camps. But this is not simply a division between "progressives" and "conservatives". Even those who would consider themselves orthodox, faithful adherents to Church teaching and admirers of Pope Benedict are divided.
On one side you have Fr. Martin Rhonheimer, Dr. Austen Ivereigh and even Fr. Lombardi himself. On the other side, you have Janet Smith, Fr. Joseph Fessio, and Cardinal Raymond Burke, prefect of the Supreme Tribunal of the Apostolic Signatura. Consider… Continue reading
Obama, the Turkey and Mercy
From the only reliable source of news on the net, the Onion. It is only a rumor that, after his Presidency, Obama intends to write a book called Profiles in Turkeys.
Would You Like Some Politics With Your Turkey?
The Democratic Congressional Campaign Committee, fresh off a disastrous election campaign, believes that Americans might be discussing politics with their Turkey today. (I can't think of a subject less likely to come up today at the McClarey Thanksgiving Dinner except for raising armadilloes for fun and profit.)
Just in case your Republican friends or relatives at Thanksgiving try to repeat anything they've heard from Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, or by reading Sarah Palin's Facebook page, we wanted to help you respond with the truth.
In the event that it does, the DCCC has a cheatsheat which you may peruse here. Continue reading
George Washington: First Thanksgiving Proclamation
A contemplation of the compleat attainment (at a period earlier than could have been expected) of the object for which we contended against so formidable a power cannot but inspire us with astonishment and gratitude. The disadvantageous circumstances on our part, under which the war was undertaken, can never be forgotten. The singular interpositions of Providence in our feeble condition were such, as could scarcely escape the attention of the most unobserving; while the unparalleled perseverance of the Armies of the U States, through almost every possible suffering and discouragement for the space of eight long years, was little short of a standing miracle. George Washington
The father of our nation was a religious man. He had no doubt of the existence of God, and that He intervened in the affairs of men and nations. Therefore it is no surprise that he originated the tradition of the last Thursday in November for Americans to thank God. Lincoln revived the tradition in 1863 in the midst of the Civil War. When we celebrate Thanksgiving today, we are celebrating a holiday that is at the very core of American history from the Pilgrims forward. Continue reading
Are You Kidding Me John Allen?
John L. Allen Jr., otherwise referred to in most circles as John Allen, is the prolific writer for the dissident Catholic newspaper National Catholic Reporter has come out defending L'Osservatore Romano in the recent Pope Condom Comments controversy.
John Allen laid the blame clearly on orthodox/conservative Catholic bloggers for "jealousy, politics, and dated expectations of how the Vatican paper ought to behave." referring to critics of L'Osservatore Romano and its editor Gian Maria Vian, of which I am one of those critics.
Mr. Allen, by "dated expectations of how the Vatican paper ought to behave", do you mean as in defending Church teaching and not embarrassing the pope at all costs?
Are you kidding me?
Must Read: Mark Brumley
Mark Brumley is the president of Ignatius Press, which today published a little book by a little German which is generating a little buzz.
Yesterday at IP's official website for the book Mark posted a "summary interview" regarding the condom controversy. I highly encourage anyone interested in better understanding what the heck is going to read this interview.
Notable Catholic news stories (I mean, besides condoms)
Providing a moment's respite from what George Weigel dubs the media obsession with "Salvation by Latex", here are some other notable (and/or interesting) Catholic stories that caught my attention:
- Hungary's last communist leader János Kádár met a priest at his own request shortly before he died, former Hungarian Prime Minister Miklós Németh revealed on Tuesday, two decades after Kadar's death (Reuters' Faithworld):
I still remember the Catholic priest whom I found, he was a short man called Bíró, I think," he added.
"I don't know whether Kádár atoned to him or what he told him, you can't ask a priest about such things. There is no way to find out now — everybody has died since."
Németh said this happened in late May or early June, 1989. "This (Kádár's request) struck all of us as a complete surprise," he said.
- On November 21st, the world's tallest Jesus statue was unveiled in Poland — greeted by a throng of some 15,000 Christian pilgrims proclaiming "Christ The King of the Universe." (Reuters' FaithWorld)
The brain child of retired local Roman Catholic priest Sylwester Zawadzki, the figure soars to a height of 33 meters (108 ft) which he said symbolized the 33 years Jesus lived on earth. It is three meters taller than Brazil's statue of Christ the Redeemer which stands on a mountain top overlooking Rio de Janeiro.
I admire the sentiment, but is there anybody else besides me hoping this doesn't spark an international competition? — I mean, Dubai, with their penchant for grand monuments and architecture, might get wind of this …
- The Dominican Sisters of Mary, Mother of the Eucharist of Ann Arbor, Mich., will be making a second appearance on "The Oprah Winfrey Show" Nov. 23 (Catholic News Agency):
Life in the order was portrayed during Oprah's Feb. 9 program. That segment received so many positive responses that the TV talk show host thought it would be a good idea to visit again.
In a statement, the order said it hopes to reach viewers who otherwise would have no exposure or understanding of vowed religious life.
- The "Benedict Bump" — seminaries in England have seen a rise in the number applicants this fall – the highest number in over a decade (Catholic News Agency):
This September, 56 men began their journey towards the priesthood in the country, the Bishops' Conference of England and Wales announced on Nov. 15, adding that Pope Benedict's recent visit to the U.K. may boost numbers in the near future.
- Catholic Herald [UK] reports that singing trio The Priests have defended their decision to collaborate with Pogues frontman Shane MacGowan after criticism from fans, teaming up to record the Christmas single "The Little Drummer Boy":
Fr David Delargy said it was a privilege to work with him and that he had a "depth and sincerity" that is not picked up by the media. At the end of the recording session, Fr Delargy said, he asked the priests for a blessing.
"He came across as a deeper, richer and more complex person than he's often portrayed," he said.
(Bring it on, I say — I love Shane MacGowan!)

The Liberal Democrats have strengthened their control over Sutton Council by winning 45 seats on Sutton Council compared to the Tories' nine.
Council leader Ruth Dombey branded the success a "historic victory" as her party retained control for an eighth successive election.
UKIP made significant inroads in the polls but failed to win any seats while Labour Councillor John Keys lost after switching his ward.
The count was held up and the final results only arrived at 8am on Friday after the count began. Reasons for the hold-up included a ballot box allegedly being mislaid, ballot papers taking too long to unfold and a large number of split votes.
Following the victory, Coun Dombey said: "I would like to thank the London Borough of Sutton who have decided to re-elect the Liberal Democrats for a historic eighth term.
"They trust us and have confidence in us. We will continue to listen to our residents, to work with our residents and are proud and privileged to work with them."
The new political map of Sutton
No-one dared make predictions before the results were revealed but many expected the Conservatives to gain seats in some wards.
However, that was not to be and the Tories ended up losing two seats.
Conservative group leader Councillor Graham Whitham, who kept his seat said: "It's bound to be bitterly disappointing for many of our candidates who put a great deal of time and effort into this campaign.
"My own personal survival goes on the back-burner compared to the pain that they will be feeling.
"They would have brought great attributes to the council and given our group more experience while representing the community of Sutton."
UKIP polled significant portions of the vote in several wards including St Helier where the candidate came fourth.
What's your reaction to the result? How did you vote? What do you want to happen over the next four years? Post your comments below or email a letter to firstname.lastname@example.com.

DAVID Howell believes that his last minute dash to London to see his chiropractor just a day before the start of Tshwane Open has paid dividends.
The Broome Manor pro – who arrived in South Africa the night before the start of the competition – ended the tournament with a fine eight-under-par after shooting four-under on the final day.
Despite finishing some way off the top of the leaderboard in Centurion, Howell believes that the whole week was worthwhile as he prepares for the Trophee Hassan II in Morocco in 10 days time.
"By the end of the last round I wasn't feeling my back at all," Howell said. "I had a good round and hitting and putting the ball nicely - it has been good week.
"It makes making that gamble of the late dash to London all worthwhile.
"Hopefully, I can take this momentum into the next tournament in Morocco which I'm really looking forward too.
"Of course, the aim is to try and win there, but if I can push into the top 10 then I'll be happy."
The weekend had started badly for Howell as he shot a two-over-par 74 on Saturday, including a double-bogey five on the 14th hole.
But he hit back with his best round of 68 in his next round 24 hours later.
"To bounce back like I did on the Sunday was very pleasing, especially considering the miserable conditions we had," Howell said.
"I didn't feel like I had been playing all that well in the first three rounds, but I had got my putting down under 30 on the Sunday and managed to chip one in as well."
Howell's final round got off to the perfect start as he birdied the opening hole, as well the fourth, fifth, eighth, ninth and 16th, but a bogey on the second slightly blotted his copybook.
With the start of the Hassan tournament 10 days away, Howell says that he will keep things to a minimum before arriving in Morocco.
"I find less is more these days," the 38-year-old. "I'm going to enjoy a bit of family time.
"I'll maybe do a bit of putting and work on a few things, but the may thing is to rest - that is my regime."
