A sharp decline in the numbers of church-goers and new baptisms over the last century in Europe has been called a "crisis of faith" by many religious leaders. Now that crisis is ballooning into a full-blown exodus, as thousands flock to new websites offering "de-baptisms," according to Voice of America.
The idea of getting "de-baptized"-- or having your name officially deleted from the baptismal registry-- is relatively new, but one which the Catholic Church is beginning to take seriously, and with grave concern.
The movement may have begun just a decade ago when Terry Sanderson, head of the National Secular Society in Britain, posted an unofficial "de-baptism certificate" on the society's website, mostly as a joke. To date it has been downloaded at least 100,000 times.
"It was a joke to begin with, but now it has taken on a new significance because there are so many people who are anxious to leave the church that they are actually taking it seriously now, and they want some way to make their break with the church formal," Sanderson told VOA. "Often the church won't acknowledge their desire to leave."
Many disenfranchised ex-parishioners have begun to take it a step further, seeking official, legal acknowledgement for de-baptism. For instance, 71-year-old Frenchman Rene Lebouvier recently filed a lawsuit against the church after his initial request to have his name crossed off the church's baptismal registry was denied. Last October, a lower court in Normandy ruled in his favor, making him the first man to be officially de-baptized, though a local bishop has filed an appeal.
Last year in Germany, a record 181,000 Catholics formally split from the church by legally opting out of paying state church taxes.
Christian Weisner, a spokesman for the international grassroots We Are Church movement, says he blames much of the de-baptism movement on public anger about church pedophilia scandals, though acknowledges that official church doctrine has also swayed against public opinion on many political issues, such as abortion, homosexuality and married priests.
"They are thinking about leaving the church and there might be one special event, like the pedophilia crisis, like a [conservative] announcement by the pope, and then they decide now is the time to go," Weisner said.
The movement shouldn't come as a surprise to the church, as official figures have shown a steep decline in religious participation in Europe over the last several decades. For instance, only about one in three French children are baptized today, compared to 90 percent half a century ago.
According to religion professor Philippe Portier of the National Center for Scientific Research in Paris, the church has put in place a new evangelizing strategy to more strongly encourage parents to get their children baptized.
Such a proactive strategy may be for naught, however, if de-baptisms continue to increase.

Last week was truly incredible, and I am so proud to have been a small part of all we did in the Houston community as lead in to the BBVA Compass Dynamo Charities Cup—#DCWeek.
We started off Wednesday night at Bowlmor for Dynamo Strikes benefitting Big Brothers Big Sisters. We filled twelve lanes with expert Big and Little bowlers (and Dynamo and Dash players). With Eddie Robinson as emcee, the night was filled with strikes, spares, a few gutterballs, some dancing and most of all a lot of fun.
Thursday we were at Fonde Recreation Center near Downtown for the Houston Fireballs versus Dynamo/Dash Power Soccer Match. Power Soccer is played in powered wheel chairs. The chairs are not that easy to handle, as I found out just trying to drive one from one side of the gym to the other. Our players found that out as well, as the first half was a rout, with the Fireballs going up 4-0. The second half was a closer battle, with both teams scoring just once for 5-1 final. Both teams had a lot of fun and both played hard. The Fireballs earned their trophy—congratulations to them!
On Friday we were at Neighborhood Center—Ripley House in EaDo for a Literacy Event with BBVA Compass volunteers and Aston Villa and Dynamo players. What a wonderful sight to see the kids gather around to listen and participate in the story. The Aston Villa and Dynamo players were good sports, answering all the kids questions and signing shirts—after it was confirmed that it was okay for the adults to write on the t-shirts.
Saturday night was the game, the highlight of the week. Thank you to all the fans that came out during the week, whether to support the Dynamo, Aston Villa or Dynamo Charities. Thanks to your participation we are able to give back to the Houston community through these events and programs.
Next up we have our Fire Sale on August 19th as part of Meet the Team Day—this year it's indoors at Dave and Buster's on Richmond. On the first week of September we invite you to join us for Will's Fur-Ever Friends week of events benefiting Houston SPCA with Will Bruin (and Molly of course). Immediately following that in mid-September we're asking everyone to join Team Dynamo for Tour de Cure Houston. If you join the team and are one of the first 200 members to raise the minimum of $250 you get an appreciation gift from us in the form of the official 2014 Team Dynamo jersey. This is definitely a collectors item. To register for the team please visit our page.
Follow us on Twitter (@dynamocharities / @dynamochrtytony) or Facebook to stay up to date on all Dynamo Charities events and programs.

Colombian Priest Sells Mercedes Inspired by Pope Francis Message: Rev. Hernando Fayid Heeds Pontiff Call To Humility
BOGOTA, Colombia — It may be back to a bicycle for a Colombian priest who's heeding Pope Francis' call for austerity.
The Rev. Hernando Fayid said he's going to sell his white Mercedes Benz E200 convertible with a black top following the pope's recent statement that it wounds his heart to see a priest in a luxurious car.
Fayid told RCN television Tuesday evening that he got the car as a gift from his four brothers last year, but will still give it up and it won't bother him.
He said he's ridden a burro, a horse, a bicycle and a bus, to say nothing of walking on foot around his town of Santa Marta. In his words, "I have no problem with that."
The 47-year-old priest said he hopes to get about $63,000 for the car.
Fayid's announcement was applauded in Colombia, which is predominantly Catholic.
Priests "should provide an example of humility," said 24-year-old accounting assistant Leydi Vega, adding that "no one is asking them to live in extreme poverty … or to die from hunger."
The president of Colombia's Bishops Conference, Cardinal Ruben Salazar, said that the Catholic Church in Latin America has always embraced austerity.
He said the estimated 10,000 Colombian priests in the country each receive the equivalent of about $620 a month.
"We priests undoubtedly have to be very conscious that we have to live with our people," said the prelate, "in the conditions in which our people live."

Christianity as a whole lacks an internal dimension which has turned it into a political movement to conquer the world for its belief, rather than a spiritual practice. That's why people in the West routinely go to Hindu and Buddhist teachers to learn about meditation and higher levels of
consciousness that Christianity never taught them. Western-born Vedic scholar Vamadeva Shastri, commenting on
denigrating remarks toward Hinduism made by Fr. Francis D'Britto in The Examiner newspaper, Mumbai.
Despite ancient concerns about possibly losing caste from crossing the sea, history reveals India was the foremost maritime nation 2,000 years ago (meanwhile, Europeans were still figuring out the Mediterranean Sea). It had colonies in Cambodia, Java, Sumatra, Japan, China, Arabia, Egypt and more. Through Persians and Arabs, India traded with the Roman Empire. The Sanskrit text, Yukti Kalpa Taru, explains how to build ships, such as the one above depicted in the Ajanta Caves. It gives minute details about ship types, sizes and materials, including suitability of different types of wood. The treatise also elaborately explains how to decorate and furnish ships so they're comfortable for passengers.

No amount of tears, tantrums or extreme tiredness can deter new dad Josh Lucas from reveling in his most important role.
"Everyone says it's the greatest adventure you'll ever have and I'm amazed at how much I'm loving it," the actor told PEOPLE during MoMA's benefit honoring Quentin Tarantino on Monday in New York City.
Recently, Lucas and his wife Jessica Henriquez set out to sleep train 5-month-old Noah Rev — and not even a week of wailing could affect his mood.
"It was incredibly difficult. The child is enraged and hates you," the first-time father admits. "And yet you're totally sleep-deprived and amazed by the experience — even when he's screaming — of what you're going through."
Calling fatherhood a "beautiful thing," Lucas has been busy bonding with his baby boy, including taking his son to see Wreck-It Ralph, Noah's first movie theater experience.
"I took him to a Tiny Tots screening, which is where you're allowed to bring your baby," Lucas, 41, shares.
"He sat there with his mouth wide open. He literally watched 15 minutes with his mouth agape and then passed out like he'd been shot."

Voters in Laurel Park chose the status quo over new blood Tuesday, re-electing incumbents Paul Hansen and Dona Mennella to two available seats on town council.
Mennella, the council's finance officer, easily won a fourth term, winning 42.4 percent of the votes. Hansen, who was appointed to fill a vacancy in 2012, was the top vote-getter with 323, or 43 percent of votes cast.
Challenger Lou Lunardoni, a retired math teacher who moved to Laurel Park in 2006, placed third with 96 votes. He'd made fiscal responsibility his campaign theme, raising concerns about the cost of developing Rhododendron Lake Park on the town's reserves.
But voters sided with Mennella and Hansen, who ran as a team under the pledge of continued efficient, debt-free government "without increased taxes."
Reached by phone at a victory party at Hendersonville Country Club, Hansen said the election results reaffirmed that town council is on the right path.
"I think the voters appreciate the way the town's been running and this indicates that council is doing things right," Hansen said. "It's nice to be able to win, but it's also nice to have an opponent who ran a great race. Giving people a choice at the polls is what America is all about, and Lou ran a good campaign."
Mannella agreed that the results were "a confirmation of the way we're leading the town." She said she looked forward to working with the new town manager, Alison L. Melnikova, whose first day on the job was Monday.
While Lunardoni said he didn't expect to win in his first attempt "going against the machine," he "thought I might do a little better." But he pledged to continue to be a fiscal watchdog, particularly when it comes to funding of landscaping and staffing of Rhododendron Lake Park.
"I'm on the planning board and I'll stay involved," he said. "I'm not going to run away. I really enjoy what's going on here."
Voter Charlotte Riddle seemed to represent the majority of those entering the polls at the First Congregational Church. She called the town's development of Rhododendron Lake Park "a big deal" and supported council's work on it.
"I like the progress that I've seen in Laurel Park and I want to see that continue," Riddle said.
Election official Susan Mangrum said voting was steady throughout the day, with no real peaks and valleys.
"For a Laurel Park municipal election, this one has been very busy compared to the last one (in 2011)," Mangrum said.

Officials confirm case of rabies in Bellows Falls
BELLOWS FALLS -- A local family is reportedly in good health after unofficially adopting a family of stray cats, one of which has died from a confirmed case of rabies.
According to Dr. Bob Johnson, Vermont's state health veterinarian, a mother cat and four kittens were found in the village and taken in by a kind-hearted family a little over a month ago. After four to six weeks, however, one of the kittens became ill and lethargic and a member of the family brought it to the Rockingham Veterinary Clinic in Chester.
The feral kitten's condition worsened and it died on Thursday. The cause of death was determined to be an open wound infected with rabies. The news prompted Rockingham Health Officer Ellen Howard to release information of the case for the public's benefit.
According to a statement from Howard, the other kittens in the litter now must be confined and observed for a six-month period because they were in contact with the infected cat. She declined to identify the family.
The four veterinarians who handled the kitten now need to receive booster shot to their vaccines, Johnson said on Friday.
He added that the brain issue of the deceased feline will be sent to a laboratory in Albany, N.Y., to determine the precise strain of rabies.
Johnson said rabies is largely transmitted through bites but can also be transferred in wet, infectious saliva or by infected mucous membranes entering the eye, ear or mouth. He said the viral disease is 100-percent fatal in humans and is vaccine-preventable.
He said the Vermont Department of Health has seen about 1,000 cases of rabies in wild animals over the past 20 years. That is compared to 60 reported cases of infected domestic animals.
"There has not been a single human case, and we want to keep it that way," he said.
Howard said all residents should use caution in approaching animals, especially domestic animals they are not familiar with, or wild animals. Pets should be vaccinated against rabies.
"Don't go near strays -- that's the best advice I can give," she said.
Her statement said yards should not be made inviting to wild animals and pet food dishes should not left outside. Pets should be fed inside and be kept in at night to avoid encounters with animals possibly infected with the disease. Trash can lids need to be tightly closed and trash left for curb-side pickup should be in animal proof containers, according to Howard.
There is no animal control officer in Rockingham.
She said there have been a variety of confirmed rabies in her tenure as Rockingham health officer, mostly in skunks and raccoons. There was also a horse infected, as the case in the town. She said she always releases a statement if a case of rabies is confirmed.
"Unfortunately, rabies is here to stay in the state of Vermont," she said. "It's not rare like was 50 years ago."
According to the Department of Health's website, anyone bitten by an animal should wash the wound immediately and then contact a doctor.
The Vermont Rabies Hotline is 1-800-4-Rabies (1-800-472-2437).
If you think you have found orphaned wildlife, it is important not to touch the animal. Call the Hotline or your area game warden.

If you saw Seattle running back Marshawn Lynch treat the Saints' defense like a Kit Kat bar on his game-icing touchdown run on Saturday, you probably noticed a great deal of enthusiasm from the Seattle crowd. Now the Seattle Times says the run literally caused the Earth to move:
"We looked at the stations nearby and one station in particular just clearly showed the crowd roaring," said John Vidale, director of the Pacific Northwest Seismic Network…
"You would probably be feel it if you were standing outside the stadium," Vidale said. "But it probably didn't travel very far."
You could argue that the Seismic activity caused by Lynch's run wasn't exactly a notable ground-shaking, and that it probably registered any time the Qwest Field crowd got mildly excited on Thursday. However, I'd be remiss if I didn't point out that 98% of all memorable sports moments are made even better when we use junk science to reinforce their momentousness.
Sports Connection
Connecting you to your favorite North Texas sports teams as well as sports news around the globe.
Did Marshawn Lynch's run trigger an Earthquake? Well, scientifically, no. But for the sake of legend, let's just turn that into a YES. It definitely caused the Earth to shake like a tuning fork and at least six nearby mountains collapsed as a result of the cataclysm. I'm told 456 people died from the aftershocks, but that all 456 said it was totally worth dying at that moment, because Lynch's run was the best they'd ever seen.
So take pride, citizens of Seattle. Your passion for your Seahawks was enough to fundamentally alter the geology of the Pacific Northwest. As far as anyone knows.

< Welcome to QdbS.org
Home of QdbS - Quote database System
Quotes Database System (formerly Salty Quotes Database, named so because it was made for the development site saltine.net) is a small script written by Kyle Florence a few years ago that will store IRC quotes, it's like your own personal bash.org. QdbS could originally be found at http://archive.kflorence.com/projects/qdbs/ and at the least, will be maintained here on QdbS.org including bug fixes and feature additions.
You will be able to find the latest version in the downloads section of this site.
Support is available via the forum, and on IRC ( irc.qdbs.org in #qdbs or Chat )
Suggestions and feature requests can also be posted on the forum in the apropriate board.

QdbS TCL
I would just like to announce the addition (to the SVN repository only) of a TCL script for eggdrops that provides an IRC, read only interface to QdbS installations.
Currently for it to work with version 1.* of QdbS you will additionally need an XML addon (also added to SVN)
To download the TCL script you should use the following command:
svn co https://qdbs.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/qdbs/trunk/tcl/ qdbs_tcl
To download the XML addon for QdbS 1.* you should use the following command:
svn co https://qdbs.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/qdbs/trunk/xml_for_1.x/ xml_addon
Please make sure to read the readme.txt for the XML addon before using the XML addon, and also read the instructions in qdbs.tcl carefully before using the TCL script.
Both these scripts will be made available as downloads in the downloads section if they prove to be stable and reliable.

Assume that the next digit of pi constant is determined by the historical digit distribution. What is the probability of next digit (N) being (n).
For example if we consider the first 100 digits of pi, we will see that the digit '3' is occured 12 times. So the probability of the being '3' the 101th digit will be 12/100 = 0.12.
Round the results to four decimals.
testsuite not working, please change "assert(isequal(pidigit(N,n)-y_correct<0.0001))" to "assert(abs(pidigit(N,n)-y_correct)<0.0001)"
Thanks, I have made the change
Still missing a ")" in your assert statement
Thanks, I have add ')'
In Solution 1301292 I am finding the same thing as Yona reported (see comment below). "Digits" should mean all digits, including the leading 3. That is the definition required to pass Test 1. But to pass Test 2 and Test 5, it is required to ignore the leading 3. Or else some people have misread the problem statement, which says that the number of digits to inspect is not N, but rather N–1. (Because we're trying to predict the N'th digit.) I count only 15 occurrences of "6" in the first 200 digits, when the leading "3" is included (as it should be).
I can not find a solution without using the symbolic math toolbox ;(
David, Maurício, Yona and mhartma3 check your solutions. They should pass all the test suit now.
Thanks, Mehmet OZC. I suppose that numerically my Solution 1301292 should now pass, but it seems it is failing the new assertion that uses regex to parse the M-file. I guess it is looking for hard-coded solutions that might characteristically contain any of the numbers [101,201,202,203,1001], which are important parameters in your Test Suite. However, inspection of pi reveals that the sequence "101" appears at the 852nd decimal place, "201" appears at the 244th decimal place, etc. So the new assertion might be creating unexpected side-effects.
@David it is somewhat funny but that solution is not failing because of those partial matches in the pi sequence (the regexp command used will disregard partial matches) but rather because of the explicit 1001 value in your commented line (reading "First 1001 digits of pi")
Ah, thanks for the clarification, Alfonso. So it was an unintended side-effect, but not the one I had supposed. That also explains why it didn't disrupt most other solutions.
It is a shame vpa does not work, this could lead to some more interesting challenges
how do I solve this without using either the Pi value string or symbolic toolbox?
why do I always get this error message:
Undefined function 'vpa' for input arguments of type 'double'.
When running the code in my Matlab version, it works fine
to use vpa function you must have symbolic math toolbox. We cannot use the toolbox on cody.
I think the answer to test suite 3 should be 0.0746 rather than 0.0796.
Kyle, test suite is correct. your code includes decimal point. check your solution
Ah, you're correct. Thanks!
My code passes all tests but the last... I'm getting 0.1050 as a result instead of 0.1060.
Shouldn't the correct answer for test 2 be 0.08? There are be 16 occurrences of the digit 6 in the first 200 digits. 16/200 = 0.08.
Sorry for that, I have corrected the mistake.
I think this correction is not good. the 201th digit is 6 so only 15 until 200 (when the first digit is 3 and not only the decimal part)
same problem in test 5. need to be 105. (see solution 1292755 and 1292769)
I agree with Yona that the "corrected" solution is now wrong. There are only 15 occurrences of the digit 6 in the first 200 digits. 15/200 = 0.0750. Similarly, the solution to test 5 should be 105/1000 = 0.1050.
Not a particularly cool solution to be proud of, but a string literal would be neither too elegant...

Last Friday, I went to the jam-packed "pre-opening" party of Nashville's newest biking establishment: The Hub. It's a truly unique entry to the Nashville biking scene: in addition to being the home of the Green Fleet Messenger service, The Hub will sell bike accessories and provide bike rentals. Starting this spring they'll also offer bike tours around Nashville.
The shop feels warm and welcoming, with its old brick walls partly whitewashed and partly left original—and completely decked out with bikes, baskets, bells, jerseys and T-shirts.
I'm pretty psyched that visiting friends and family will no longer have an excuse not to participate in my bike obsession. Judging from the bikes in the shop during the party, there'll be a wide range of models available (alas, I didn't photograph them all).
The Hub is located in Edgehill Village and open for business. Find them on Facebook for info on special holiday deals.
Green Fleet Hub
1579 Edgehill Ave., Nashville, TN

p.s. speaking of riding in Nashville, our next bike brunch is TOMORROW at 11 am at Tavern in Midtown. Email me if you can make it.

Meet our NZIFF Champions: Erin Harrington – Christchurch Super Fan
Thursday 8 August 2019
How long have you been attending NZIFF?
I started attending consistently when I was about 19 or 20, when it was held at the Rialto (RIP).
Favourite film you've ever seen at the Festival?
I have very fond memories of having my little mind blown by this surreal black and white American musical / space western, The American Astronaut, from the 2002 festival. I saw it with a bunch of uni friends and re-watch it every year or so. A++++ would trade again.
My favourite moment though was watching Sam Hamilton's fun experimental film Apple Pie in the 2016 festival. It was just me and an elderly guy in the cinema at a 10am screening and at the very end he turned to me and said "that's the queerest film I think I've ever seen".
Film(s) you're most excited to see from this year's NZIFF?
I'm really looking forward to both the Hungarian animated film Ruben Brandt, Collector, and the Swedish sci-fi film Aniara. The first appeals to my love for bonkers animated weirdness, and I really like high concept sci fi + Swedish film + international takes on genre. I'm also excited about Jennifer Kent's film The Nightingale even

Prosecco has two DOCG's
Tuscany has these two DOCG's for
- Chianti and
- Chianti Classico
Until we find out, the DOCG list is either
And for those curmudgeons who say : Why is this important?
my answer is this: because sommeliers studying for their tests want and need this information.
Anyway, it is kind of fun trying to figure a way through the labyrinth of Italian wines on that (or any) level.
But if anyone finds out about the Marche designation and how it is broken down, please comment. Inquiring minds want to know.

A Democrat who has dubbed himself the "practical liberal" is planning to challenge U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan, R-Longboat Key, for re-election to Congress.
Bradenton resident Mitch Mallett, who for nearly 8 years has been the host of a liberal AM radio talk show, said he plans to file to run for the 16th Congressional District, which includes all of Sarasota and most of Manatee County.
"I've been involved in politics for a long time," said Mallett, who has been involved with the Manatee Democratic Party since 2000. "I think I would be a good congressman."
Mallett, 57, said he has a good grasp of the issues and is convinced he can win voters over if he can get his message out.
One of his top issues Mallett said will be fighting for a higher minimum wage, which he said would reduce the need for working people to need food stamp programs to feed their families.
Mallett said he has filed his papers to run for the office, but the Federal Election Commission had not posted a statement of candidacy from Mallett as of Friday morning. A statement of candidacy and an official campaign account are required to run for federal office.
Mallett has never run for office before and will have a tough battle if he qualifies to run. Buchanan is a four-term incumbent who spent $2.6 million to win his re-election in 2012 against Sarasota Democrat Keith Fitzgerald.
The district Mallett is hoping to win is considered a Republican-leaning district because registered Republicans outnumber registered Democrats. The 16th District has about 210,000 registered Republicans compared to about 155,000 Democrats. Another 100,000 are registered to vote with neither of the two major parties.
Mallett's "It's Your Gavel" radio show ran on Bradenton-based WWPR 1490 AM for years. Mallett now runs the show on the Web only at blogtalkradio.com.
Buchanan on budget negotiations
When a special committee of House and Senate officials begin meeting to hammer out a budget compromise, U.S. Rep. Vern Buchanan is hoping they will all be open to public scrutiny.
Already, the first meeting scheduled for this week is set to be open to the media, but with no assurances other meetings will be, Buchanan is going public with his efforts to make sure the public gets a full airing of the negotiations.
"The critical decisions made by the budget conference committee should be conducted under the watchful eye of the American people," Buchanan said last week. "They deserve to know the severity of Washington's spending addiction."
In all, 28 House and Senate members were appointed to the special committee to hash out the budget deal. It includes just one Floridian, U.S. Sen. Bill Nelson, a Democrat who is also on the Senate Finance Committee.
During a stop in Sarasota on Wednesday, Nelson said he is optimistic that the committee will head off a repeat of the budget shutdown from earlier this month. Still, he told about 100 people at the Westcoast Black Theatre Troupe offices that his optimism only goes so far.
"What I predict is that I think that the folks that did this got so burned -- even though they don't know it -- they got so burned by taking us through this, that we're not going to have another shutdown nor another attempted default," Nelson said. "But even my optimistic nature tells me we're not going to get a grand bargain. We're going to get a deal -- hopefully -- to avert the next round of sequester, gargantuan cuts Jan. 15. And then we'll be able to keep things going."
Nelson said one of his big concerns with the next round of sequester cuts is what it could do for Florida's space program.
"You can't cut that little agency, NASA, like they want to in the sequester and have the space program," Nelson said.
Wonder to challenge Whitmore in Manatee
The battle over a major development in Manatee County has in part spurred one of the opponents of the project to run for the Manatee County Commission.
Even though Commissioner Carol Whitmore, a Holmes Beach Republican, voted against allowing the Long Bar Pointe development to build a marina near the Cortez fishing village, Democrat Terri Wonder has still filed to run against her in 2014 in part because of how the project was handled.
Wonder was one of dozens of people from the community to speak up against the project in a marathon county commission meeting in August. Wonder highlighted her opposition to the project as part of her campaign announcement on Thursday.
Wonder said she's running because the county needs a voice that will help stem the tide of over-development in the county.
"While considering new commercial projects, I will stand up for the Old Florida values and neighborhoods that define the character of Manatee County," Wonder said in announcing her candidacy.
Wonder, who holds a doctoral degree in social psychology from the University of South Florida, has worked for the U.S. Army as a field researcher, statistician and cultural analyst.

Spring Break Over; Trucks Are Back
By Nick Bromberg | Senior Correspondent
Kansas City, Kan. – You can forgive yourself if you've forgotten about the Camping World Truck Series. After all, it's only been a month since the last race at Nashville.
"I'd rather be racing…I'm tired of doing honey-dos for my wife," defending series champion Ron Hornaday Jr. said. "I'm tired of cutting trees down, painting garage doors, doing that stuff. If I race, I can pay somebody to do that and not have to do that. I just enjoy racing, I worked all my life to race and get an opportunity to do it."
However, Mike Skinner, who won last year's race at Kansas Speedway, the site of Sunday's race, says that he enjoyed the break, but understands that the length of the break may not be the greatest thing for the series' visibility.
"That's a really, really valid question and I would have to say for the series it's probably a little bit too long of a break," Skinner said.
"I would rather see less break, run every other week, get your 25 weeks in or whatever and maybe stop our season – our season is the same length as the Cup season – do we really need to wrap our championship in Homestead in November? Or do we maybe need to be down in September or October?"
And because the Cup Series is in Richmond this weekend, this is the first race of the season that Kyle Busch will not be in and the second that Kevin Harvick will not race in. When asked about Harvick and Busch, Hornaday was surprised that Busch wasn't flying in for the race on Sunday but said that the lack of Cup drivers didn't make the race any different.
"They're beatable, that's what they're there for. That just makes us turn up our wick more," Hornaday said.
Skinner agreed that Cup drivers provide a great challenge, especially for young drivers in the series, but also said that he feels the series needs to build its own identity away from NASCAR's top two series.
"The Cup Series has its own identity. Let these other series, even if we have to shorten the field up to 25 or 30 cars… if we have to do that to make the show right, then do it. In my opinion, and I'm just one person, I would much rather see us have much less companion races. We do need a handful of companion races because if you have a young driver coming up, say we have a Landon Cassill or someone else coming up, he needs to run against Kevin Harvick so we can see how he can do. But not every other race," Skinner said.
Recently, Kevin Harvick Inc. has been the identity of the Truck Series, as Hornaday and Harvick have won 11 of the last 29 races. Todd Bodine, the 2006 CWTS champion, attributes that to coilbinding, a setup that utilizes soft front springs and stiff rear springs.
"The biggest thing in the setups is the advent of coil binding. Back when we ran so well every week on these mile and a halfs we were probably the only guys that were almost coil binding. We weren't quite doing it but we were right there and everyone else hadn't caught on and once they started doing that on the Cup side and everyone figured it out, obviously it trickles down to what we're doing. The biggest thing that I think changed that was when they went from having a valence on the front of the trucks to just having a true splitter, then the coil binding became a necessity an, you know, that took our advantage away," Bodine said.
"That kind of happened in the middle of '06, right in the middle of our championship run and we really got behind almost half a season because we couldn't change the things that we were doing that put us in a position to win the championship. We couldn't do those things when guys who where fifth and sixth and fourth, even, they all started doing it and learning it and figuring it out."
Hornaday agreed.
"Well I was very surprised to see Todd come in here… usually we started to have a war finally five years ago against Toyota with Chevrolet. They have more horsepower, we have more horsepower, and they got better bodies, we got better bodies. When Todd was winning that championship we had to go do our homework and we figured out how to beat them. It took a lot of people to do that and Todd Berrier (currently Jeff Burton's crew chief in the Sprint Cup series) was probably one of the pluses that helped KHI. It took a while," Hornaday said.
"When I went to Nashville and wrecked our Nationwide car trying to qualify with coil bound and we changed it all over and we ran good in the race. It takes an act to learn how to drive these things. I was fortunate enough, just like Todd said, I got started early because Kevin made us drive it that way. I didn't like it but he made us drive it that way and once you learn it, it's a lot of fun."
KHI has also had stable sponsorships over the past few seasons, something that Bodine's team, Germain Racing, has struggled to find.
"It's tough when you don't have the money. This year, the truck we're running here, it's actually its second race but it's the first new truck that we've had since the beginning of 07 because of our funding situation and that makes it tough to keep up with Ron and everything they do at KHI because they have new trucks every other week because Kevin is able to cycle them out and sell them off and that keeps Ron in great equipment and that makes them hard to beat," Bodine said.

Editor's note: The recipe and introductory text below are from Marcus Samuelsson's book, Aquavit : And the New Scandinavian Cuisine Salads like this one are part of the Swedish smorgasbord enjoyed on special occasions such as New Year's.
Called skagen in Swedish, this salad is named for a Danish fishing village across the river from Sweden. It's a very traditional dish that appears on every smorgasbord table in the country. Here is our version, which includes smoked salmon, shrimp, and crabmeat. It makes a great lunch served with crusty French bread or whole-grain crispbread.
- 6 fingerling potatoes or 2 Yukon Gold potatoes
- 2 cups (about 10 ounces) cooked and peeled small shrimp
- 1 1/2 cups finely chopped smoked salmon (10 ounces)
- 1 1/2 cups (about 10 ounces) crabmeat, picked through for shells and cartilage
- 4 hard-cooked eggs, finely chopped
- 2 shallots, finely chopped
- 2 anchovy fillets, finely chopped
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh cilantro
- 1 tablespoon finely chopped fresh chives
- 1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
- 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
- 2 tablespoons sour cream
- Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
- 2 small heads iceberg lettuce, cored, separated into leaves, washed, and patted dry
- 1. Preheat the oven to 400°F.
- 2. Roast the potatoes for 30 to 40 minutes, until fork tender. Let cool until you can handle them, then peel and cut into 1/2-inch dice.
- 3. Combine the potatoes, shrimp, smoked salmon, crabmeat, eggs, shallots, anchovies, cilantro, and chives in a large bowl. In a small bowl, combine the lime juice, mayonnaise, and sour cream, stirring to blend well. Gently fold into the salad and season with salt and pepper to taste.
- 4. Arrange the lettuce leaves on a platter and serve alongside the salad. Instruct your guests to roll up 2 tablespoons or so of salad in a lettuce leaf, like a spring roll, and eat.

In comparison to the von der Neun settings, here is all transparent simplicity. The pretensions of orchestral accompaniment are swept aside and the homely piano is reinstated in the parlour. The texture is childlike, and one thinks of some of the enchanting songs from the Op 79 Liederalbum für die Jugend, no less effective for their sparse accompaniments and folksong-like melodies. Schumann had already set the words of a handful of female poets (Lily Bernhard, Catherine Fanshawe, Wilhelmine Lorenz and Marianne von Willemer) but here, for the first time, he sets his cap at a style suitable for feminine poetry. This is a subtly different concept from finding a style for songs about women; indeed, as an equivalent, one thinks of the conscious decision of Francis Poulenc, ninety years later, to find an appropriately feminine musical language to suit the poems of Louise de Vilmorin. Like Schumann, Poulenc conceived his Vilmorin songs (Fiançailles pour rire) as a result of an empathy not only with the poetry itself, but with the biographical circumstances surrounding it.
Dedication These unpretentious songs are dedicated to the memory of a girl who departed from us long ago, and whose name is known to very few. And yet she was one of those wondrously gifted beings who appear only very rarely on earth. The sublimest teachings of wisdom, expressed here with the utmost poetic perfection, come from the lips of a child; and it is in her very poetry that we read how her life, spent in quiet obscurity and the greatest poverty, became richly happy. These few small songs, chosen from several thousands, of which only a few lend themselves to composition, cannot give even an approximate notion of her character. Though her whole life was one of poetry, only a few moments from this rich existence can be selected.
If these songs could help introduce the poetess to many circles where she is still unknown, their purpose will have been fulfilled. Sooner or later she will certainly be greeted in Germany too, as she was thirty years ago by some in the north, as the bright star which will gradually shine forth across every country. (Düsseldorf, 7 June 1851)

Meat Lite: Chickpea, Chicken, and Tabouli Salad Recipe
Mostly vegetarian dishes with just a touch of meaty accent.
Editor's note: Philadelphia food writers Joy Manning and Tara Mataraza Desmond drop by each week with Meat Lite, which celebrates meat in moderation. Meat Lite was inspired by their book, Almost Meatless.
Despite my garden idiocy, I have a patio filled with prolific container herbs and veggies. This is both thrilling and panic-inducing, since as a cook, I hate to see things go to waste. Odds are, anyone who has taken the time to grow food feels the urgent nudge from their gardens to come up with good uses for the bounty. This salad answers the call.
Classic tabouli doesn't include chickpeas or chicken, but the addition of both adds protein enough to make a meal. Serve with either lettuce leaves or soft lavash for scooping. If you have vegetarian diners at your table, cook the bulgur in water and offer the poached chicken on the side for meat eaters to stir in if they choose.
Black thumbs are welcome to try their hands at this, too, thanks to summer farmers' markets, gardening friends or the good ol' grocery store.
- 2 cups water
- 2 boneless skinless chicken breasts (about 12 ounces or 3/4 pound)
- 1 cup bulgur wheat
- 2 tablespoons grated onion
- 1 cup small diced tomatoes (about 2 Roma tomatoes)
- 1 cup small diced cucumber (about 1 small)
- 1 cup cooked chickpeas
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 1/4 cup fresh lemon juice (about 1 lemon)
- 1 teaspoon coarse salt
- 1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
- 2 cups tightly packed parsley leaves, chopped fine
- 1/2 cup tightly packed mint leaves, chopped fine
- Hearts of Romaine or Butter lettuce leaves for scooping (optional)
Bring the water to a boil in a wide high-sided sauté pan. Add the chicken breasts and reduce to a bare simmer. Cover and poach the chicken for 15 minutes, until cooked through. Remove the chicken, reserving the liquid, and set it aside to cool.
Return the poaching liquid to a boil. Add the bulgur wheat, cover and turn off the heat. Keep covered for 15 minutes, until the bulgur has absorbed the liquid and becomes tender. Stir in the grated onion, transfer the bulgur in a large serving bowl, and refrigerate to cool completely.
Once the chicken is cool, shred it and add it to a mixing bowl with the tomatoes, cucumber, chickpeas, and lemon zest.
Whisk the lemon juice, salt, and pepper together in a small bowl. Add the olive oil in a slow drizzle, whisking constantly to make a simple vinaigrette.
Stir the chopped parsley and mint into the cooled bulgur. Add the chicken and chickpea mixture and stir to combine. Drizzle with the vinaigrette and stir again to incorporate all of the ingredients. Refrigerate the salad for about 30 minutes before serving.
Serve the salad on a big platter with Romaine hearts or Butter lettuce leaves for scooping.

Given a covariance matrix, how can I construct a vector of expressions of randomly distributed variables whose covariance matrix is equal to the given one?
EDIT: All variables are normally distributed.
I have an algorithm that gets the covariances correct, but not the variances on the diagonal:
a = [0]*len(r)
for x, row in enumerate(cov_matrix(r)):
for y, item in enumerate(row):
if x > y: continue
v = noise(math.sqrt(abs(item)))
a[x] += v
if item > 0:
a[y] += v
a[y] -= v
I feel like this should be simple ...

Olympic gold medalist Shawn Johnson testified that learning a stalker had shown up at the studio following her "Dancing With the Stars" performance made her "really scared" and she contemplated quitting the show. Instead, she went on to win it.
Johnson's voice cracked Thursday as a prosecutor showed her a knife found in the car owned by Robert O'Ryan, the man accused of breaking onto a studio lot where Johnson had performed.
"I didn't know him," Johnson said. "He was a stranger to me. To see somebody had that much kind of obsession, it made me really scared."
U.S. & World
Prosecutor Wendy Segall also showed the 18-year-old Johnson a handgun, shotgun and bulletproof vest allegedly found in O'Ryan's car during his March arrest.
Prosecutors say O'Ryan, 36, harbored a dangerous obsession for Johnson and traveled from Florida to Los Angeles with the hope of meeting and marrying her. Johnson was 17 at the time.
O'Ryan has pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity to felony stalking and burglary charges. He sat quietly and showed no reaction during the 23 minutes Johnson spent on the witness stand.
Johnson recounted that police and her parents told her a man had been armed and she needed a bodyguard.
"They didn't want to tell me too much to scare me, but of course it did," Johnson said.
Johnson calmly answered questions posed by prosecutors and O'Ryan's public defender, saying she was nervous about appearing in court.
Segall asked Johnson about poems O'Ryan allegedly wrote about the athlete, some of which had her name hyphenated with O'Ryan's.
One of the poems, shown in court Monday, professed unwavering love for Johnson. "I feel quite lucky," the poem read, "that we fight happy, I want everything to go your way, and this is how I pray, that we will be together to stay .... and no matter what you do, I will always love you."
Authorities say they found numerous other writings addressed to Johnson and gifts for her and her family in O'Ryan's car. Prosecutors also say they found a piece of a paper with an Iowa address for a person named Shawn Johnson, but it was not the gymnast's address.
Johnson said she considered resigning from "Dancing With the Stars" and moving back to Iowa after O'Ryan's arrest. However, she stayed on the show and eventually won her season.
Johnson won a gold medal in the 2008 Beijing Olympics.
O'Ryan has been jailed since he was arrested for investigation of jumping a fence at the studio lot.
He could face up to four years in prison if convicted. He also could face two years in jail if he is convicted of two misdemeanor concealed weapons violations.
If O'Ryan is convicted, a judge will then determine whether he is legally insane. His attorney, Judith Greenberg, said in opening statements that O'Ryan was a well-educated engineer before he developed a mental illness several years ago.
In a tape of an interview with police played in court Thursday, O'Ryan asks a detective whether he believes in ESP. O'Ryan told the officer he used ESP to communicate with numerous people on television, including rappers Ludacris and Lil Jon and some daytime soap opera stars.
O'Ryan said he started communicating with Johnson telepathically when she competed in the Beijing Olympics.
Prosecutors are expected to conclude their case Thursday.
O'Ryan has waived his right to a jury trial and his fate will be decided by Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Michael Pastor.

AMSTERDAM – Qualifying for the 2012 European Championship heated up on Tuesday, with former Real Salt Lake man Yura Movsisyan striking his first Armenia goal in a 2-2 draw at Macedonia.
In the 41st minute, the forward capped a fine move to break the ice in a match that eventually saw each team score a goal in second-half stoppage time.
Elsewhere in Group B, Ireland hold the penthouse after a 3-1 defeat of Andorra on goals from Kevin Kilbane, Kevin Doyle and Robbie Keane. Slovakia are a close second on goal differential after Miroslav Stoch's goal midway through the opening frame held up in a 1-0 win at Russia.

France finally got off the schneid in Group D, topping hosts Bosnia 2-0 on markers from Karim Benzema and Florent Malouda inside a seven-minute second-half span. Albania are surprisingly tops in the pool after Hamid Salihi's first half tally was enough to best 10-man visitors Luxembourg.
Despite playing a man down for 66 minutes, home side Sweden got a Zlatan Ibrahimovic double and another pair on own goals in a 6-0 whitewashing of San Marino that put them on the Group E perch.
Also perfect through two are World Cup runners-up the Netherlands, who rode an early Klaas-Jan Huntelaar brace past Finland 2-1.
Croatia are at the Group F summit after battling visiting Greece to a scoreless draw.
In Group H, Erik Huseklepp's early goal saw hosts Norway to a 1-0 victory over Portugal and the top of the pool table. Denmark are second, thanks to a 1-0 win over Iceland earned through Thomas Kahlenberg's last-minute winner.

A 17th-round selection by the California Angels in the 1976 MLB draft, Schrom pitched in the major leagues for seven years, earning an All-Star Game invitation in 1986 after starting the season with a 10-2 record. Schrom, a Grangeville, Idaho native, played for Toronto, Minnesota and Cleveland during his MLB career. Even after his playing career, Schrom never gave up on baseball. He spent 16 years as the top executive in the front office of the El Paso Diablos, a Double-A team that he had played for early in his career, and then moved on to the Corpus Christi Hooks, a Double-A affiliate of the Houston Astros. In 2005, he earned Texas League Executive of the Year honors when the Hooks finished with the third-highest attendance in Double-A and 17th-best among all minor league clubs in the country in just their inaugural season.

"The art of healing has to do with rhythm and reality. When the body is in rhythm, there is ease. When the body, or any part of the body goes out of rhythm, there is dis-ease."
-Yogi Bhajan
The physical body is the temple in which you can build credit or create debt. When you are young you can often play mischief with the physical body without feeling adverse effects. But in old age, the body pays you back. The body doesn't forgive debts; it records the results of your actions.
You do well to treat your body like a car that needs care and maintenance. If you give your car regular service and oil changes, it will last a certain number of miles. But if you don't schedule regular maintenance, you will need a new car in a short time. This is not an option with your body, so you need to take care of it.
The 3HO lifestyle gives you the techniques and awareness to stay healthy. You gain a strong immune system, vital glands, a strong nervous system, good circulation, and an awareness of the impact of your habits. This foundation gives you energy and lets you deal with the mental and spiritual facets of your life.
"You have to understand the process of healing in the Age of Aquarius. What will give the healing is the flow of your soul energy."
