I don't go to church, I believe in a god, Karma isn't a brand of Volkswagon and Hell can be here on Earth...but....
Everyone is hemming and hawing about what the dip shirt that is Obama's spiritual advisor said. I could really care less about what he said.
But am I the only one who has a problem about WHERE he said it?
According to B.O., the older you get, you have more of a pass for being a jerk. This AH is supposed to be come kind of cleric and he's spewing crap like that in a CHURCH? The thing I found most offensive was the little thing he did while talking about Bill Clinton and Lewinsky. (I am not a BC fan.)
The rev showed that he deserves no respect for "acting the fool" in a house of worship.
Not only that, I was expecting the Gray Panthers to put up a stink about how they are being portrayed - as dottering old racist fools.
I left the church because of an Easter Sunday incident - the priest began to rail about the standing room only inside the building. Apparently he wasn't too happy about the Holiday Patrons in attendance. If he didn't make the effort to try and get people to come back next Sunday, I figured I could do something else with my time.
Like catch the early morning Sunday sports with my sinner friends.
Beer and Football. Amen.

Elizabeth Smart shares harrowing tale of abuse
Kidnapping victim hopes to help abuse victims
Elizabeth Smart is sharing her harrowing tale of physical and emotional abuse turned into survival and hope, saying she's ready to break her silence in an effort to help others.
Smart, 24, was kidnapped at the age 14, taken from her bedroom in 2002, found and returned home nine months later. On Friday, she visited Maryland to share her story with others at Cherish the Child, the eighth-annual Child Protection Awareness Event.
Sharing incredibly personal details about the most horrific time of her life, Smart talked about her kidnapping before a sold-out crowd of 700 people who converged on the New Life Center at Mountain Christian Church in Harford County.
In an exclusive interview with WBAL-TV 11 News, Smart said engagements like this have become her passion.
"It just seems that there are no more miracles, that every case has a sad ending," Smart said. "Not all cases end sad. I'm here. I'm a happy ending, and I know there are many children out there waiting for a happy ending to happen to them."
Smart has dedicated her life to making a difference since her abduction. Nine years later, Smart has become a newlywed, a news correspondent and a tireless activist for missing and abused children. She started the Elizabeth Smart Foundation with her father.
"Right now, we're working on the RAD Program, which stands for Resisting Aggression Defensively. It covers everything from kidnapping to bullying," Smart said.
Smart also hopes others will learn from her examples that illustrate how to thrive, instead of simply moving on from trauma.
"Everyone has hard times, ups and downs. All handle them differently. We all can heal. As many different ways as we get hurt can be as many different ways as we can heal," Smart said.
Taking her mom's advice, Smart said she will not give her convicted kidnapper a moment more of her life, and she feels it's her duty to give back to those who prayed for her safe return.
"I just feel like I'd be so ungrateful if I didn't do what I could to try to make a difference for children everywhere," Smart said.

Farmer Assurance Provision Protects Farmers, Not Monsanto
Painting a seriously skewed portrait of the Farmer Assurance Provision, Elizabeth Kucinich played on anti-Monsanto, anti-capitalist sentiment in an attempt to whip up public fervor against a sensible law designed to protect America's farm families. The resulting piece, which ran on the Huffington Post, uses a truly ridiculous combination of ominous implications and arguments based to mislead the masses and, in doing so, further the lack of understanding that makes so many people many fearful of their food.
The Farmer Assurance Provision, in its essence, protects American family farmers who, due to often-frivolous lawsuits based in procedural arguments and directed at major corporations, could face serious economic harm. This provision reassure farmers that they can plant and harvest crops developed through biotechnology already approved by the U.S. Department of Agriculture under a temporary stewardship agreement in the event of litigation against the agencies decision.
In simple terms, the FAP removes a potentially significant financial risk facing farmers. Without this important piece of legislation, the regulatory process for biotechnology would leave the family farmers who purchase seeds approved by their government vulnerable to costly losses should an activist group choose to legally challenge the government's decision. Without this provision, these men and women, acting in good faith, become collateral damage in an ideological battle between those who embrace and those who eschew science.
The need for such protection has been made evident over the past several years as opponents of agricultural biotechnology have repeatedly filed lawsuits against the USDA on procedural grounds. In filing these suits, the anti-activists aim to disrupt the regulatory process and, in a broader fashion, undermine the science-based regulation of biotech ag products. These lawsuits strain USDA resources and delay the approval of new, innovative products America's farmers need to grow abundant, affordable food and remain internationally competitive.
Kucinich goes so far as to advocate for these types of attacks. Implying that chemical herbicides and genetically engineered crops should be met with public rage, notably without giving any reason why these extensively tested, proven technological advances are anything less than revolutionary, she rages blindly against a world in which innovation generates a profit.
Furthermore, this farmer-bashing fiasco of a post then begins makes a massive leap into the realm of food labeling to continue its tirade against the companies who provide farmers with new technologies. She points out companies such as Monsanto and DuPont have spent money to fight GMO labeling campaigns. She fails to evaluate the actual propositions in any way. In the case of California, she conveniently forgets to mention the proposed legislation was actually backed by trial lawyers looking to find their next cash cow. Presumably, she feels comfortable with predatory lawsuits that generate no value for the community but not with companies investing in ag research and supplying the innovations needed to feed a growing world turning a profit.
While she may not understand sound science and live in constant denial of the overwhelming evidence that biotechnology is not only safe but is beneficial, she masterfully demonstrates her knowledge of how to engineer panic and fear. Her post expertly manufactures the perception of public outrage and uses it as grounds on which to attack a provision intended to protect America's farm families from her assault on science. The scorched-earth mentality of this assault demonstrates her deep desire to maintain a weapon that inflicts massive collateral damages on honest, hardworking farm families. Rather than demonstrating a deep insight into the FAP, GMO labeling initiatives, sound science or capitalism, she exposes both her ignorance and rage-fueled fervor to burn down anything which she doesn't understand.
Don't fall for the self-serving hype disguised as righteous indignation. Take the step she doesn't and get the facts. The rhetoric may be rousing, but her assault on the Farmer Assurance Provision is actually on America's farm families.

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
Face it: When it comes to cool kids' shoes, big-box stores just don't have style. As an antidote, Albany-based Livie & Luca offers handmade kicks for the toddler set through local shops and online. The shoes are "green," made of high-quality leather remnants that would otherwise be discarded, and when the kid inevitably grows out of them parents can send them on to Livie & Luca partner Art for Humanity, which donates used children's shoes to low-income families in Honduras (donors receive a coupon from L&L for free ground shipping on the next pair). But best of all, these diminutive designs come in patterns that make Mommy jealous: crossovers with a tiny silk-screened girl lolling on the beach; classic Mary Janes with appliquéd birds, elephants, or polka dots; and orange "London" boots reminiscent of Ziggy Stardust. For fun and funky East Bay kids, these shoes will definitely fit.

Seagulls Staring Out to Sea
Seagulls were in multitudes on Capitola beach in California this one August morning. Capitola is a little town just south of the more famous Santa Cruz which is just north by about 10 minutes.
This young one was just staring out at the open ocean taking a break from the busy chatter going on around it. We hadn't been to the ocean in a while being that we had moved off to Colorado so it was great to feel the offshore breeze again. I definitely need a taste of the ocean at least once a year if I can manage it.

Our Take on This Week's News
Amazon is fighting off a demand from the North Carolina Department of Revenue (the state tax collectors). The state wants a record of all Amazon purchases made by its residents, and it wants names, so it can collect the sales tax. Amazon says "privacy violation." And remember Amazon's original business was books, which have a special place in the law when it comes to protecting their owners from government intrusion.
Here's the story as reported by c|net, and here's Amazon's complaint.
Cyberattack on Google Said to Hit Password System. More has been revealed about the extent of the Aurora attack on Google. This story was apparently leaked to the New York Times by someone familiar with the investigation. It suggests huge implications for the security of all Google applications.
Facebook is becoming quite brazen about exposing user profile information. This opinion piece at EFF explains the latest piece of information to be taken out of the user's control.
Related: The Facebook "like it" button, coming soon to websites everywhere.
About the most straightforward information-sharing scheme we've seen yet: Blippy mines your email and credit card statements (with your permission) and posts every purchase you make. Blippy is the VC flavor of the month, having just received $11 million. Too bad some credit card numbers belonging to Blippy users turned up when some curious surfers hit Google with search strings containing the words "Blippy.com" and "from card". Will Blippy survive? Probably, even in the face of a less-than-apologetic stance from the company (Co-founded by the infamous Pud, of the infamous FuckedCompany.com site from the "dot-bomb" period.) Why anyone would want to be part of Blippy, especially now, is a separate discussion.
Highly-paid SEC lawyers and accountants spent their days surfing porn sites while Bernie Madoff was making off with a whole lotta other people's money. We ask why, in an entity whose mission revolves around audits and controls, were there no audit trails and controls to call attention to an employee with 16,000 attempts to access porn? Shouldn't this have been nipped in the bud before it spiraled out of control?
You probably read about some of the chaos that ensued from McAfee's latest update. But this story by a SANS incident handler takes the prize.
Malware mules: We all know about drug mules and money mules. But the black market for email credentials is creating some new opportunities.

I just a had a random idea that could be a pretty cool game.
How about writing a version of Funeral Quest to go along with the Dungeon Scroll engine. That seems workable. Make the main character a necromancer or something, instead of a regular wizard. Maybe have a darker theme. Or keep it close to the original FQ. Some combination of the two?
Live action seems to be the one element missing from FQ. Otherwise, very cool.
Also, maybe add more secret words to DScroll, with cool strange effects.
Maybe I just haven't found them all, yet...

VERY BAD HOTEL! RUN AWAY!!! It does not say that the mountain view rooms are in another site, far away from the main hotel, in a small street. The room is very cheap style, cold water, no breakfast and no mountain view at all but a very bad street view. If you book the standard room you will be close to the reception and the beach but take into account their bar become a night club with high level music until 2 or 3 am. People are not friendly and there no service at all. Avoid these hotel, you can find much better in Koh Tao!

No no never. There are more classes rooms. If you book online you get the worst one for 750 baht/night+ fees for the website, a room. If you go direct to the hotel, you can book a bungalow for 750 baht the night, which is better located and nicer. Forget the pick up service from the pier. Althought they wrote us, that we will picked up, nobody was there, walking is too far, very expensive taxis. We had luck and a other diving school, picked us up with their car because they wanted to sell us a diving course ( bans diving school). But the free accomotation from that diving school was a joke, so we walked on to the lotus resort. We told the french women on the counter from lotus our anger, that we was not picked up. She said no sorry or something, only oh, the driver must be at the wrong pier we got a room over the main road 7min to walk to the beach, the man who bring us to the room did not ask to carry any luggage... Very unfriendly. The room was not very clean but ok, the bad was ok too, but cold water. But our bed was not fresh made. We asked for new linen, and then the man gave us fresh ones and we had to make by our own, bad service! The pool was ok, but far away from our room. If you get a room in the house over the street it is not very good located or nice. For one night it might be ok, but not longer, you get for the money much better accomodation, or even better free accomodation if you make your open water licence. We moved on to the neighbour hotel (seashell resort in a bungalow) there it was a little bit more expensive but much nicer!!!

12th Street Taphouse tapped out
Tara Wheeler of the Charlottesville Newsplex first reported that the restaurant/bar/comedy club known as the 12th Street Taphouse has shut its doors. Known for its 20-ounce "pints" of beer, it opened in early 2009 on West Main Street by former chef and part owner of nearby Michael's Bistro, Chuck Adcock.
The building, now largely surrounded by the growing UVA Medical Center, long housed a string of familiar restaurants, including–- in reverse chronological order–- Spry's BBQ, Northern Exposure, Zipper's, and Expresso International (yes, ex-presso), which later became the Italian Villa on Emmet Street.
According to Adcock, the four months of utility work in 2009 for the massive Barry and Bill Battle Building at UVA Children's Hospital, which will rise on the temporary parking lot beside the 12th Street Taphouse, put the restaurant in too much debt.
"We just couldn't recover," he says.
If that was the case, the odds of building owner Gordon Latter, owner of the Kane's Furniture next door, finding a new tenant doesn't look promising, considering the fact that the next phase of hospital construction involves raising a $141 million, 7-story, 200,000 square-foot building right next door over the next four years.
-updated 1/17/2011
Correction: in the original post, we mistakenly said "the odds of building owner/music magnate Coran Capshaw–- who financed the Taphouse's renovation work–- finding a new tenant doesn't look promising." George Latter, owner of Kane's Furniture, owns the former 12th Street Taphouse building at 1202 West Main Street. However, according to Adock, Capshaw did help finance the restaurant's renovation.

KS, I made no mention of fleecing tourists, and I wasn't referring places that cater to them. By "regular locals" I mean the ones that go to Chi-Chi's, all-you-can-eat Chinese buffets, sports bars, and the like. Some businesses obviously want those people to come in, but many successful local establishments are good at and profit from keeping them away.
Not that it's among that group, but Durty Nellies has been around for a very long time and does fine far even farther from the Corner and nowhere near Downtown. Mas did just fine before Belmont became clogged with all the other restaurants. The C&O was the Pioneering Downtown restaurant and very popular long before that area drew crowds. Beer Run isn't near anything yet manages to be packed all the time. People will go out of their way if there is a reason. The Taphouse either didn't have such a reason or failed somehow to get the word out if it did.
Cookie- We misunderstood each other...in restaurant parlance, regular implies coming back with frequency, i.e. regularity. By "regular" locals I mean those who come back again, not average or common.
hawes A LITTLE SPITEFULL ARNT WE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
We would stop there after work sometimes do the fact that it was not over crowded and the waitstaff were friendly. Will miss having a quiet place to have a few drinks with co-workers even if it was not the cheapest.
Maybe the state could buy it off of Mr. Capshaw for, effectively, many times its true worth, tear down the building and make a state park on the land.
Better yet, the city could buy it for, effectively, many times its worth and sell it back to UVA for pennies on the dollar.
(I am being sarcastic in case it isn't clear.)
Dear cookieJar, You're right. We're not sure why your comments got eaten by the robot either, but we're looking into it. Thanks for not saying any naughty words or using insulting language.--hawes spencer
Oh, wait. Maybe it was your obviously fake email address. Try using a real one next time.--hawes
cookieJar got capped.
Venue worked back when there was parking. Once the adjacent free parking went away, every venture there has flopped.
Fakeemail@... is obviously fake? I thought I was being pretty sneaky with that one.
The building is owned by Kane Furniture, not Capshaw.
@DaleC - yes, it was the Expresso Italian Villa for YEARS. Like 2+ decades. I worked for Zipper briefly when he first took the space over from the Italian Villa folks. I was not a huge fan of Northern Exposure, but I wanted to at least sample the big beer offerings...oh well! I don't think the vibrations would hurt the kegs and I think construction workers would give you a ready supply of beer drinkers.
@ Lenny Cason, this was not a Capshaw owned business. Very hard for any independent operator to make it in this economy. Best of luck to Chuck who put lots of sweat and equity in to this venture. UVA will be tearing this building down before long.
I guess the place wasnt "LOCAL" enough for the locals to support!!!!
Geez, does it really matter what it was in the old days? Sorry to hear that the 12th Street Taphouse is closed. Best wishes Chuck in your future endeavors!
It, not I.
I closed a week ago. It's telling that people are only noticing now.
True old-timers will remember it as the Expresso Italian Restaurant.
nicknameoscar: It didnt fit the Jeffersonian Style that UVA likes So it was doomed from the start ! Check the parking enfocement records and Ill bet it highter that the average for the "COURNER"
I had several good meals and several good beers there. They will be missed.
$10 beers. Yawn.
How did you not know mellow has such a great beer selection when they win best beer selection every year?
12th st looked like an airport bar
whats up with this closing down another coran capshaw failure are we in a economic down fall what a shame i guess people are now drinking at home
I think it was a wise move on the owners part. Who would want to sit in a bar with a construction project raging next to them. Do you not know UVA is expanding its hospital and is turning that parking lot into a children's hospital. Besides all the vibration from the jack hammers shakes the kegs and gives far to much foam in the beer. It is much easier to just wate till the project is over and sell the place to UVA for 10 times its worth and be done with it.
Guess it's too late to use my gift certificates to this dump. Oh well.
Wasn't it Expresso's Italian in the 1970's?
deleted by moderator
i thought the food was overpriced, and uppity. the space was gorgeous on the other hand. its a shame, but with the economy, and most of the places in this town being overpriced in general, its not really all that surprising to me.
I listen to quite a bit of local radio and watch the local tv channels when possible. I do not recall ever hearing an ad for this place or a few of the other places that have closed within the past 6 months. Maybe I blocked them out.
Agree with Mary. I like a good beer, but the prices were not realistic for the regular local. They sucessfully kept me away, anyway!
The key to the success of many bars is keeping the regular local away.
"The key to the success of many bars is keeping the regular local away.
You can only fleece tourists if you get a constant flow of tourists, and that location is too far down from the Corner. Tourists don't walk that far and there's nothing else to draw a crowd there like there is on the Downtown Mall. Even student-only dives will die without repeat customers.
had brunch there once. VERY enjoyable.
Of course, it was the morning after one of the huge snowstorms last year, when I was trapped at the marriott. Otherwise, I would never have set foot inside.
Location is everything.

It's really no wonder people often rant about being censored and it's nearly impossible to tell what word makes that happen. Nothing that would have been in the second half of the post I just made above makes any sense as a trigger for automatic deletion.
Never heard of the place until now- maybe that was the problem.........
The food was good--the lunch waitstaff were uppity, but I continued to lunch there in spite of it. I figured they were on their way out when some friends met there for a beer...taps available were PBR and Guinness Stout. When we asked for the winelist, it was written down on a scrap of paper that included 3 bottles. The poor child waiting on us insisted that everyone "raved" about their "selection". Pitiful. We moved on. I had no idea Mellow Mushroom has such an extensive beer selection. Can't beat a $10 of Stella!

RIO DE JANEIRO, Feb. 18 (UPI) -- Top-ranked Rafael Nadal and second-seeded David Ferrer each posted convincing first-round victories Tuesday on Day 2 of the Rio Open in Brazil.
Spain's Nadal breezed past countryman Daniel Gimeno-Traver 6-3, 7-5 at Jockey Club Brasileiro.
Meanwhile, Ferrer continued to roll two days after claiming the Copa Claro in Buenos Aires with a 6-2, 6-3 decision over Frenchman Jeremy Chardy.

Ice Makers
Most all ice makers utilize the same mehanical components. Look at the compressor, ice maker assembly, water solenoid valve, ect. it's all made by the same manufacturer. The ice maker companies buy these components and assemble them onto their own units.
Both units come with optional stainless steel face plate inserts.
Both units produce and hold approximately the same amount of ice.
Raritan does come in a true 220vac 50 hz style unit that will work with European vessels and Uline is derated by operating at 50hz.
Uline does come in more sizes than Raritan and has the option of producing clear ice on the larger models.
Uline is not supposed to be sold on the internet per rules of the manufactorer, although I have seen them for sale. There might be a problem with warranty if you do buy online. If you have to go through an authorized dealer, you might not get the best price like people often can by shopping online.
Ther are many other makes of ice makers to choose from that offer more options and come in full stainless steel. Don't feel like you are limited.
The truth of the matter is that ice makers like Uline and Raritan are designed to work on a level surface since the use a molded troft to create the ice cubes making them not the best unit for Marine use.
There are better options available the only problem is the size.
A lot of boats were prefitted with a Uline or Raritan unit.
One of the best units available is a Hoshizaki which is a true clear ice cuber.
They are however are a little larger in size. (14'' x 22'' x 31'')
and include a two year parts and labor warranty.
My partner and I contracted to a fleet of boats that had, you guessed it, either Raritan or Uline ice makers. Long story short, the Raritan produced a lot more ice reliably. I think they are both rated at 22 lbs per day. Raritan Engineering is very helpful, I have had opportunity to need their help on other products and they have always come through. That said, I would stay away from Uline. The units I used were finicky and did not produce the same quantity as the Raritan. This is of course if you are stuck for space and have to use one of these two.
I currently have a 50 lb per day Kitchen Aid ice maker. While I have had to repair it, four years old, it does seem to produce ice happily if we don't heel, something a sailboat has a hard time avoiding. It works differently than the Raritan and Uline. The Kitchen Aid I have has an angled freezing plate, when the ice sheet gets thick and heavy enough; it slides down onto a cutter of stainless steel wires and then drops into the bin in cubes. Being on a heel does not help matters.
Give that and the environment; I did look at the suggestions from others who have commented here for various reasons. If you have the room and budget I would be rather temped to go with the Hoshizaki. Their site is full of helpful information, including Owner's Manual, Parts Manual, Service Manual.. the list goes on and a 2 year warranty. Heck I know boats that buy ice makers like water. They are larger and more expensive, but it all works out in the long run. I am not sure but the Hoshizaki seems to work on some kind of jet system and therefore might lend itself to a boat that bounces around, even heels a little.
So now you have three companies that actually use different mechanisms to make ice, therefore they are not all the same.
I did look at the Scotman site but they seem a little large. And I wonder sometimes, if a Yacht is so large it needs such a large ice maker, then it would need ice in various places around the Yacht and therefore maybe a few smaller units would be better strategically place. Like the Hoshizaki size of 50 or 55 lbs per day. On the other hand personal suit or cabin ice makers, then you are back to the Raritan's, back at the beginning.

Mike Huckabee has blasted Karl Rove and the "Republican Party establishment" for the "elitism" and "country club attitude" that he claims has driven Republican criticism of Christine O'Donnell. Huckabee says that he too was the victim of the such elitism when he ran for president. In Huckabee's view, both he and O'Donnell suffer because they "didn't go to the right school and [attend] the proper cocktail parties on the D.C. social circuit."
This expression of self-pity is beyond stupid. Karl Rove and other mainstays of the "Republican establishment" are unreservedly supporting candidates all over the country who haven't attended any D.C. cocktail parties. What schools they went to, I cannot say and neither, I'm sure, can Rove.
The problem that some in the Republican establishment (and some of outside it) have with O'Donnell begins with the fact that she has very little chance of being elected, and her nomination seems destined to cost the Republicans a pick-up in the Senate in a year when majority status is a possibility. The problem extends to concerns about O'Donnell's flakiness and seeming inability responsibly to handle her own financial affairs, among other things.
As to Huckabee's 2008 presidential run, reservations did not center on his social status and educational background. Rather, they focused on his time as governor, during which he was hardly a paragon of small government, low tax conservatism or of sound judgment. During the campaign, moreover, Huckabee displayed disturbing Carteresque tendencies when it came to foreign policy.
But Huckabee's attack on Rove shouldn't be understood as a serious argument. Like most of what Huckabee says, it is better understood as a means of advancing his interests – in this case, his interest in currying favor with the Tea Party movement in advance of a possible (and I would think probable) run for the presidency.
Given Huckabee's mixed record on taxing and spending, he doesn't seem like a strong candidate for Tea Party support. And the limited amount of relevant available polling data suggests that he is not a Tea Party favorite. But that's all the more reason for him to rally to Ö'Donnell's defense and to take a cheap shot at Rove in the process.

The French and Russian red, white and blue stripes were flying high in Indy as France's Gilles Simon and Russia's Dmitry Tursunov met in the finals at the Indianapolis Tennis Championships. Although ranked 25th in the world and seeded second at this tournament, Simon's career has flown under the radar compared to countrymen Richard Gasquet or Jo-Wilfried Tsonga. By beating the defending champion Tursunov in straight sets 6-4, 6-4, perhaps Simon will make tennis fans take notice on this continent.
The finals can best be summed up as Simon being opportunistic with his break point chances while Tursunov allowed the myriad of break point opportunities he had fall to the waste side. On a few occasions, Simon had his back against the wall, down triple or double break point; yet, he came up with the goods to hold his serve. Despite the Russian's noticeable advantage with a powerful serve and blazing groundstrokes, it was the Frenchman with the beguiling frame who came out on top in most of the long rallies in a match primarily played from the baseline. Simon needed just one break in each set to prevail.
Despite this event being loaded with Americans, their progress was stopped at the semifinals with James Blake, the top seed, falling to Tursunov and Sam Querrey eliminated by Simon, with the Frenchmen saving 16 break points. The big test for Simon will come this week at the Rogers Cup where he will face Roger Federer in the second round should he win his opening match. With Federer returning to the circuit after his heartbreaking lost to Rafael Nadal at Wimbledon, this will be a test for both players.

USDA's Poultry Proposal: Proceed, but Cautiously
CSPI says changes must lead to lower rates of Salmonella and Campylobacter
The U.S. Department of Agriculture's proposal for revamping poultry inspection would be the first major overhaul in over 50 years. Part of the proposal would have all poultry facilities monitor for pathogens both before and after chilling the poultry, which would give companies a real-time view of conditions in their facilities. In some plants, company inspectors would check for quality defects, likes bruises and sores, enabling USDA to reduce the number of its inspectors checking every carcass. Visual inspection cannot detect food borne pathogens.
USDA should modify its inspection program carefully to ensure that the program reduces the unacceptably high levels of Salmonella and Campylobacter in chicken and turkey. One can't escape the fact that the government is shrinking, and that historic programs like this one need to demonstrate their value. The proof will be in reduced contamination rates, leading to fewer deaths and illnesses.

His Holiness Patriarch Kirill visits Harbin
On 13 May 2013, His Holiness Patriarch Kirill, currently on a visit to China, visited St. Sophia Cathedral in Harbin. He was accompanied by Ambassador Andrei Denisov of the Russian Federation to the People's Republic of China, Mr. Sergei Paltov, Russian Consul General in Shenyang, Mr. Zhang Lebin, deputy director of the State Administration for Religious Affairs under the State Council of the People's Republic of China, and members of the official delegation of the Russian Orthodox Church.
Staff members of the municipal architecture and art museum housed in the building of the cathedral told His Holiness about its history.
Patriarch Kirill recalled the destruction of Christ the Saviour Cathedral in Moscow and underlined the importance of preserving any traces of Russian presence in China for the development of relations between China and Russia.
His Holiness and his suite sang Paschal troparion.
Patriarch Kirill celebrated Divine Liturgy at Intercession Church in Harbin
On May 14, 2013, Radonitsa, the day of the joy of the Resurrection when the memory of the dead is celebrated after Pascha, His Holiness Patriarch Kirill of Moscow and All Russia celebrated the Divine Liturgy at the church of the Protecting Veil in Harbin.
There were a great many Orthodox Chinese and Russian-speaking compatriots, but not all of them had an opportunity to enter the church. Upon his arrival at the church, His Holiness came up to believers who gathered in the street and talked to them and bestowed on them his primatial benediction.
Among his concelebrants were Metropolitan Hilarion of Volokolamsk, head of the Moscow Patriarchate's Department for External Church Relations, Bishop Sergiy of Solnechnogorsk, head of the Moscow Patriarchate's administrative secretariat, Archpriest Nikolay Balashov, vice-chairman of the Department for External Church Relations, Archpriest Dionisy Pozdnyaev, rector of the church of Ss Peter and Paul in Hong Kong, Archpriest Sergiy Yakut, dean of the Vladivostok diocese's second district, and
Rev. Sergiy Voronin, rector of the church of the Assumption at the Russian embassy in China.
The church was prepared and renovated by the Diocese of Vladivostok, whose priests also helped to take confessions from those who wished to take the Holy Communion.
The liturgy was celebrated on the corporal, which used to be in the church of Our Lady of Tabyn in Beijing. It is signed by Archbishop Victor (Svyatin) of China and Beijing, head of the 20th Russian Orthodox Mission in China. The choir of the New Monastery of the Saviour in Moscow sang, and the Holy Gospel was read in Church Slavonic and Chinese.
Among the worshippers were Russia Ambassador A. Denisov, V. Legoida, head of the Synodal Information Department, and S. Paltov, Russian general consul in Shenyang. During the Litany of Fervent Supplication, a prayer was lifted up for the victims of the flood in China.
During the service, liturgical mentioned was made of the dead archpastors, pastors and lay people of the Russian Orthodox Mission and the Chinese Autonomous Orthodox Church.
After the Divine Liturgy, the Primate of the Russian Orthodox Church addressed the clergy and numerous faithful, noting that Radonitsa is the day when the dead are remembered after Pascha. Besides, due to the fact that in 2013 the Victory Day fell on the Bright Week, a special annual commemoration of the dead warriors who died for the faith, the Motherland and the people and all those who were killed during the Great Patriotic War was made on the Radonitsa Day.
As a token of the Patriarchal service in Harbin, the Primate of the Russian Church presented the church of the Protecting Veil with the Gospel for the communion table and the liturgical Apostolos.
The parishioners greeted His Holiness Patriarch Kirill. Speaking on behalf of the community, the warden Catherine Uy Shun said, 'We have eagerly excepted your coming and can assure you that we will keep this church forever'.
The community presented Patriarch Kirill with canvasses executed in traditional Chinese manner, bearing the images of the church of the Protecting Veil in Harbin and roses and a quotation of the Gospel from Matthews.
After that His Holiness had a talk with children who came to Harbin for medical treatment and blessed them.
All those present at the service received small icons of the Risen Christ.

Commemorations for Bashons 29
On this day of the year 461 A.D., St. Simon departed. He was born in Antioch in 392 A.D. His father's name was John, and his mother's name was Martha. Many miraculous things happened because of him. Before his mother had conceived of him, St. John the Baptist appeared to her in a dream and told her of her conception and what he would become. At age sixteen, he became a monk in the mountain of Antioch, and he led a great ascetic life in worship and prayer. An angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream and guided him in his monastic life to the life of St. Pachomius. He excelled in his worship to a level beyond the normal human level, so that he lived alone on a high place like a pillar, for 45 years, during which he ate grass.
This father wrote many useful ascetic teachings, and explained many church books. He departed in peace.
May his prayers be with us, and glory be to God forever. Amen.
