My work as a curatorial assistant primarily entails preparing botanical specimens for the Herbarium of Cultivated Plants housed in the Hunnewell Building, as well as the Herbarium of the Arnold Arboretum, a vast collection of wild-collected plants which is part of the Harvard University Herbaria in Cambridge. I started as a volunteer in 1985, responding to a flyer calling for plant collectors. Having lived in Jamaica Plain since 1972, I had been a frequent Arboretum visitor, but this was my first exposure to an herbarium. At the time I was exploring opportunities for meaningful work to sustain and support me as an artist and single mom. Now, 25 years later, I can say I found what I was searching for. I joined the staff in 1986 to process a growing backlog of herbarium specimens and to lend a hand to the verification project, a curatorial review of our living collections.
As an artist, I feel privileged to witness the incredible biodiversity of our fragile planet by handling and preserving these sometimes delicate, sometimes unwieldy plants that range from tiny arctic tundra specimens to tree ferns from New Guinea. I enjoy the quiet, meditative quality of the job, working with my hands and applying my fine arts skills in a useful way. I have trained volunteers and interns, taught classes in our Adult Education program, appeared on a PBS show ("Cultivating Life") to demonstrate the process of creating an herbarium specimen, and documented the current state of The Botanic Garden of Cienfuegos, Cuba with photographs for an online exhibit.
I continue my life as an artist by creating and exhibiting. Working in my South Boston studio, I paint using an ancient medium, encaustic; sometimes my paintings reference the work I do at the Arboretum, but I also explore other themes and media. I use a plastic camera—a Holga—to do creative, alternative photography, at times combining encaustic and photo imagery. I am passionate about all the arts, literature, music, dance, and film. I love travel and hiking, and have practiced yoga for more than 35 years, becoming a certified yoga instructor in 2004. I stand on my head every morning and am grateful for the opportunity to create art every day by working with the Arboretum's botanic specimens.

Updated 11:12AM: The Harry Potter bundle is now $60, though the Lord of the Rings bundle is still at $10. These are "limited-time prices" according to Apple's promotional text in the iTunes movie section, so it looks like there may have been a limit on the number of Harry Potter bundles that could be sold for $10. The other bundle deals may expire soon as well.
I caved. Will I ever watch all eight Harry Potter movies? Who knows? But for $10, I at least have access to them all.
That's one of the deals that Apple is running through its iTunes store right now, as spotted by a user over in the FatWallet forums.
There are other deals, too – one of the better ones being the Lord of the Rings trilogy for $10.
Here's a link to the complete list. You'll need to have iTunes installed on your computer to open it.
Here are all the available movie bundles:

Move over, men of the DC Comics universe. Wonder Woman is in town.
The first trailer for the Warner Bros. live-action flick made its debut at Comic-Con on Saturday, and it definitely did not disappoint. Actress Gal Gadot takes center stage as Diana Prince, the superhero tasked with bringing peace to the world amidst the chaos of World War I.
The teaser kicks off with co-star Chris Pine, who plays Wonder Woman's love interest, Steve Trevor, washing up on shore. Gadot's character asks, "You're a man?" to which he responds, "Yeah, do I not look like one?"
In between quite a few battle scenes, viewers are offered a glimpse into the feminist undertones of Wonder Woman's first ever standalone feature, who was first introduced in this year's "Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice."
When meeting Trevor's secretary, Diana asks, "What is a secretary?" The woman responds, "I go where he tells me to go and I do what he tells me to do," as the crime-fighter then confidently states, "Well where I'm from, that's called slavery."
As it turns out, Gadot even sought inspiration from her character's real life namesake. During the Comic-Con panel in which the trailer premiered, she reportedly mentioned the impact Princess Diana made on her preparation for the role.
"Wonder Woman" hits theaters on June 2, 2017.
Gal Gadot Explains Why Wonder Woman Needed a Female Director

My kids are too young for sleep away camp and we do not have a Jewish Day Camp here {yet} so the summers for us are not that much different to the rest of the year. We usually have different family members and good friends come visit for a week or 2, but other then that, its pretty much the same.
Since we are bringing in summer early this year (more for me then for the kids:) I decided that every weekday of summer, aside for going to the park, pool or beach, we will start our mornings off with davening, followed by a fun arts'n crafts project, a fun game and some reading (either about the Parshah or a Jewish story- we have some fabulous Jewish story books which I will list on my next post).
My goal is to collect 90 different arts'n crafts ideas, 90 different summer games/activities and read 90 different Jewish stories to the kiddos (one a day).
Hey, I'm aiming high:) I think it will be fun.
Click here to see what I have collected so far!
My ultimate goal is to make 3 boards, one for each month, with a craft and activity on each day. Super excited to get started on this-- I have til Friday to make Junes;)

The U.S. Air Force plans to ground about a third of its active-duty force of combat planes and a top general warned Tuesday that the branch might not be able to respond immediately to every event when needed.
The Air Force didn't immediately release a list of the specific units and bases that would be affected on Tuesday, but it said it would cover some fighters, bombers and airborne warning and control aircraft in the U.S., Europe and the Pacific.
Gen. Mike Hostage, commander of Air Combat Command at Joint Base Langley-Eustis in Virginia, said the branch would focus its budget and resources on units supporting major missions, like the war in Afghanistan, while other units stand down on a rotating basis.
"The current situation means we're accepting the risk that combat airpower may not be ready to respond immediately to new contingencies as they occur," Hostage said in a statement.
The Air Force says, on average, aircrews `lose currency' to fly combat commissions within 90 to 120 days of not flying and that it generally takes 60 to 90 days to conduct the training needed to return aircrews to mission-ready status.
Returning grounded units to mission ready status will require additional funds beyond Air Combat Command's normal budget, according to Air Force Officials.
"Even a six-month stand down of units will have significant long-term, multi-year impacts on our operational readiness," Air Combat Command spokesman Maj. Brandon Lingle wrote in an email to The Associated Press.
For affected units, the Air Force says it will shift its focus to ground training. That includes the use of flight simulators and academic training to maintain basic skills and aircraft knowledge, Lingle said. Aircraft maintainers plan to clear up as much of a backlog of scheduled inspections and maintenance that budgets allow.
On the same day, the U.S. Navy confirmed that the Blue Angels aerobatic team would be cancelling the rest of its season.
Tom Frosch, the Blue Angels lead pilot and team commander, announced the news late Tuesday at the team's Pensacola Naval Air Station headquarters standing in front of the one of the iconic blue-and-gold jets. Frosch said the news marks the first time since the Korean War that the team would not make the air show rounds.
"The Navy held off as long as possible with the hope of salvaging some of the season," Frosch said. "We hope we'll be turned back on for 2014."
As the news trickled out, business owners and residents of the coastal enclave where the team is based were disappointed.
"I just think it's sad that there are political games being played. I doubt the Blue Angels are even half of 1 percent of the entire Navy budget," said Lloyd Proctor, co-owner of Blue Angel Hot Tubs in Pensacola. Proctor and his wife named their business after the team 10 years ago.
"They have national name recognition and they are loved by people everywhere," Proctor said Tuesday.
Most held out hope that the grounding was temporary and that the season could somehow be salvaged.
Thousands of fans flocks to Pensacola Beach each July to watch the team fly over the white sand and turquoise surf. It is always the biggest tourism revenue weekend of the year, said W.A. Buck Lee, president of the Santa Rosa Island Authority. Lee said he had hoped that the six fighter jets would be allowed to continue practicing as a team and the Pensacola Beach show could be replaced by a routine practice over the beach.
Instead, the Navy announced Tuesday that the six elite pilots would maintain only minimum flight hours to remain qualified in their F/A 18 Hornets and that squadron practices would end for the remainder of the season.
"The economic impact of the show for us is more than $2 million," Lee said. "People are going to start cancelling their hotel rooms and will hurt businesses here."
A spokesman for the Navy said team members would be allowed to fly minimal hours to maintain flight proficiency in the F/A 18 fighter jets, but the six-jet squadron would discontinue group practices for the remainder of the season. The elite pilots selected to serve a two-year rotation with the team are among the top Navy's top fighter pilots. Many are graduates of the Navy's famous Top Gun fighter tactics school.
Forsch said the team will continue its focus on community outreach and on Navy and Marine recruiting.
"To be a part of this team in any way is an honor and there is an obligation to continue that legacy of the Blue Angels that inspired me and others to fly and to join the Navy and the Marines," he said.
Nelson reported from Pensacola, Fla.

NEW YORK (AP) — Stocks were little changed on Wall Street after recouping losses from an early sell-off caused by concern that a bailout plan for the Mediterranean island nation Cyprus would re-ignite the European debt crisis.
The Dow was down 23 points, or 0.2 percent, to 14,502 as of 1:42 p.m. The index fell as much as 110 points in early trading, before winning back much of the decline.
The Standard & Poor's 500 index fell five points, or 0.3 percent, to 1,555. The Nasdaq composite dropped six points, or 0.1 percent, to 3,245.
European markets closed with modest losses, recovering from an early swoon. The euro fell to a three-month low against the dollar.
Concerns persist about the euro-region's lingering debt crisis, despite a strong rally in stocks since the start of the year that pushed the Dow to record highs. The index fell 1.6 percent Feb. 25, its biggest wobble this year, after elections in Italy threw the country into political paralysis, endangering crucial economic reforms.
"Europe has got problems," said Uri Landesman, president of Platinum Partners, a hedge fund. "You could get more stuff like this and the market isn't priced to handle that."
A weekend agreement between Cyprus and its European partners called for the government to raid bank accounts as part of a €15.8 billion ($20.4 billion) financial bailout, the first time in the euro zone crisis that the prospect of seizing individuals' savings has been raised.
The proposal roiled international markets and the measures are stoking fears of bank runs in the other 16 nations that use the euro.
Markets in Europe and Asia also fell during early trading, before retracing some of their losses later in the day. Germany's DAX index dropped 0.4 percent and Spain's main index of stocks shed 1.3 percent. Indexes in Britain and France each lost 0.5 percent, recovering from steeper declines early in the day.
The dollar rose almost a penny against the euro, pushing the European currency to its lowest in three months against the U.S. currency. Gold climbed $12 to $1,604.50 an ounce. The yield on the 10-year Treasury bond, which moves inversely to its price, dropped to 1.99 percent to 1.96 percent.
The stock market's rebound suggests that traders consider the Cyprus situation to be contained for now, said Quincy Krosby, a market strategist for Prudential. The threat of rising volatility may also deter the Fed from thinking about ending its economic stimulus program. The central bank starts its second two-day policy meeting of the year Tuesday.
"Absent of the Cyprus flare-up, the markets were slowing a bit and it looked as if investors were digesting the gains and waiting for the next catalyst," said Krosby.
Financial stocks were the biggest decliners in the S&P 500. Investment bank Morgan Stanley fell 48 cents, or 2 percent, to $23.11. Citigroup dropped $1.03 to $46.23.
Goldman Sachs said Monday that it had lifted its end-of-year target for the S&P 500 to 1,625 from its previous target of 1,575. The investment bank is forecasting that the U.S. economy will grow 2 percent this year and 2.9 percent next year. It also predicts that corporate deals and dividend payments will increase.
Homebuilders fell Monday after a report showed that confidence among U.S. homebuilders dropped this month because of concerns that limited land, building materials and labor will slow sales. The National Association of Home Builders/Wells Fargo builder sentiment index fell to 44 from 46 in February, with measures of customer traffic and current sales conditions both declining from February.
D.R. Horton dropped 28 cents to $24.05, cutting this year's gain to 22 percent. Ryland Group fell 87 cents to $40.13, paring this year's advance to 10 percent.
Among other stocks making big moves:
— Schlumberger dropped $2.47 to $76.93 after the oilfield services company said that its first quarter activity was below its expectations as customers reactivated fewer rigs than forecast.
— Boeing fell $1.15 to $85.27 after archrival Airbus signed its biggest deal of all time on Monday. The European plane maker won an order from Indonesia's Lion Air worth 18.4 billion euros ($24 billion) for its short haul A320 and A321 jets.

We held our Christmas Care Package event at the Estherville Armory [recently].
As we sit and read this a soldier overseas is on foot patrol; as we are able to pick up the phone and call friends a soldier is waiting for his down time so he can stand in line to hopefully get online to visit with his family; and so on and on it goes the things we take for granted are those that become difficult or hard to reach when a soldier is away and without the comforts of home.
Family, friends, neighbors, and community members gathered at the Estherville Armory on Saturday, November 20th, to help put together care packages for soldiers serving overseas. It is important for them to receive a little bit of home and this care package event was one of those times that the soldier receives a package with that Taste Of Home. From candy, cookies, and granola bars to reading material, tooth paste, hand wipes, and toilet paper, and finally letters and items from local school children, businesses, and churches. These are just a few of the thousands of items that were donated to this all important drive through individual and group donations as well as through "Operation Military Care" drive held by the Esterville Chamber of Commerce and through the assistance of Gene Haukoos in purchasing and transporting the donations to the Armory. The number of people that showed up to show their support and help package the items was outstanding. From the first steps of sorting all the items, filling and taping packages, filling out customs forms, sharing some social time, then finally cleaning up and walking out of the building was a mere 3.5 hours to pack over 100 boxes. The flow of things with everyone jumping in where needed when done with their first task was an overwhelming site to witness.
Our soldier's Taste of Home packages will be mailed out this next week.
I just want to Sincerely Thank everyone who helped out with the this Care Package event. Without individuals, groups, and organizations willing to step up and help out we could not have made this event happen.

text: Did you know? Nearly 60,000 Maryland school children, teachers, and chaperones visit the National Aquarium free of charge every year through a partnership with the Maryland State Department of Education (MSDE). Governor O'Malley's Fiscal Year 2015 Operating Budget includes over $6 million in funding for 40 State Aided Educational Institutions (SAI) across the State of Maryland. The proposed grant includes $474,601 for the National Aquarium. During the current 2014 session, our Government Affairs team has been working diligently in Annapolis to voice strong support for this important education funding and the Aquarium's allocations within the state's budget. Through our partnership with MSDE, the National Aquarium provides students across the state opportunities to interact with our 17,000+ animals and geographically-diverse exhibits, all with the aim of providing an education beyond the classroom without any cost to the students or their schools. Funding from the SAI program has offset 52 percent of the cost of our school program, making it possible to offer this program to 960 local schools, and open our doors each year to over 59,000 students, teachers, and chaperones—for free. This funding will give 28,000 students the chance to visit the Aquarium in 2014. They will join the 2.5 million Maryland school children from every jurisdiction in the state having visited the National Aquarium since our opening in 1981. The National Aquarium's education program offers more than just field trips. We also have a year round continuum of extracurricular experiential programs for all ages, off-site "outdoor classroom" programs to communities and free curriculum training to over 500 teachers. The field trip experience combined with the Aquarium's commitment to advancing the science programs in Maryland schools will help educate a future generation with an interest and passion in the environmental sciences, all the way from the tropical rain forests to the Chesapeake Bay.

Dog days: Pups beat heat with commerce
While the recent 90+ degree days have everyone talking about the dog days of summer, for some local businesses, every day is a dog day.
For example, two dogs rule 2 French Hens, a downtown antique and home furnishings boutique. (No word on whether they bother the hens.)
"They're good for business," says co-owner Miles Andrews. "They get up on the beds, and people are still happy to buy the linens."
Over at the Engraving Shop on Ivy Road, nine-year-old bishon frise Thomas is big draw. "Lots of people will come into the store just to see Thomas," says his owner, Elaine Townsend. "They get upset if he's not here."
Puddles, a basenji mix, catches some rays on the front steps of Boutique Boutique on the Downtown Mall.
Dominic, an English mastiff at Sun Bow Trading Company, drools when he's offered a cookie.
Otto Zenke, a poodle whose surname recalls a famous interior designer, peers over an antique railing at 2 French Hens.
The Artful Lodger lets Emmet lounge on the "Chaucer" sofa.

Silicic volcanoes produce many styles of activity over a range of timescales. Eruptions vary from slow effusion of viscous lava over many years to violent explosions lasting several hours. Hazards from these eruptions can be far-reaching and persistent, and are compounded by the dense populations often surrounding active volcanoes. I apply and develop satellite and ground-based remote sensing techniques to document eruptions at Merapi and Sinabung Volcanoes in Indonesia. I use numerical models of volcanic activity in combination with my observational data to describe the processes driving different eruption styles, including lava dome growth and collapse, lava flow emplacement, and …

Coriander And Lime-Crusted Tilapia Fish With Mango Salsa
It seems like Tilapia fish is a very popular choice of fish everywhere these days, and no difference here in Vancouver. They can be purchased either live and still swimming in the tank or quick frozen. This fish has a mild flavor; but, is full of protein, low calorie, and low saturated fat. Anyway, I baked this Coriander and Lime-Crusted Tilapia Fish using a packet of quick frozen Tilapia fillets in less than 8 minutes. My family and I thoroughly enjoyed the Tilapia, which I served with some fresh mango salsa. If you need the recipe for the mango salsa, you can get it here. Just remember to dice all the ingredients into smaller than the usual bite sized pieces to complement this delicate fish. Enjoy!
Coriander And Lime-Crusted Tilapia Fish With Mango Salsa
(Printable Recipe)
1 Packet (454 g) Quick Frozen Tilapia Fillets, thawed according to the packet instructions
4 Tbsp Panko Breadcrumbs

Officials in southern Mexico say armed vigilantes have released the last 42 people they had detained on suspicion of crimes ranging from theft to extortion and murder.
The government of the Pacific coast state of Guerrero says the vigilantes based in the town of Ayutla turned 20 detainees over to police.
It says the remaining 22 had been suspected of lesser offenses and were released Tuesday because the vigilantes considered they had already been sufficiently punished.
The vigilantes' leader did not return calls seeking comment on Wednesday.
Residents tired of rampant crime set up roadblocks in early January and detained about 53 people. They released the first 11 detainees in early February.

No Ears
Poor Silver Surfer. I guess you don't need ears if you're going to be in space. This is a recent head study from the Philly convention.
Also, Ben Morse has written a pretty extensive post about me on his blog, The Cool Kids Table. I'm a big fan of the title, but then again, I'm biased. Thanks for the kind words, Ben.

Though in space, would it even matter? Crazy superheroes and their lack of ears.
This is why I try not to think too hard (or realistically) about superhero comics. David Mazzucchelli has a nice piece on the subject in the back of Batman: Year One anniversary edition.ReplyDelete

This is the best time of year for people who love food because fresh corn, tomatoes, green beans, squash, blueberries, watermelon and cantaloupe are plentiful.
They're delicious by themselves, but they can taste even better with a sprinkle or two of fresh herbs.
Like vegetables and fruits, herbs are available at the farm stand or supermarket, but they're best when snipped from a pot in your backyard and used immediately.
It's a little late to start herbs from seeds for a nice harvest, but the plants are available at garden centers. Basil, thyme and rosemary can still be planted for good results, herbalist Melinda Boyer said.
In pots on the deck or patio, you can grow basil to make pesto; cilantro for salsa; sage to dry for Thanksgiving stuffing; rosemary to enhance grilled chicken breasts; and thyme for Cajun and Creole dishes. Plus, growing your own herbs can provide a significant cost savings from buying them in the store.
"Herbs like basil, thyme and rosemary make great container herbs for the urban dweller," Boyer said. You can crowd them together in containers for better growth. Remember to prune and shape them to keep them producing foliage.
Boyer, owner of New Day Herb and Native Plant Farm, teaches herb classes for the Osher Lifelong Learning Institute at the University of Kentucky and has two Facebook pages devoted to herbs, The Country Herb Woman and Herb Lovers.
Boyer shares these tips for harvesting fresh herbs:
• It is best to harvest all herbs in the afternoon on a dry sunny day prior to blooming. This is when the plants have the most flavor and aroma. Herbal blooms are edible and can be used in cooking and food. Sprinkle them on salads, and summer soups, or use as garnishes.
• Cutting and pruning herbs is what keeps them healthy. If one doesn't prune herbs they become spindly and die. Boyer suggests topping herbs like basil and rosemary. Never cut them to the ground. They have shallow root systems and will not survive. Prune the top buds of basil often, about a third of the way down to keep it bushy.
• Rosemary is a woody herb of slow growth so it needs to be lightly pruned, also at the tips of the plant buds. Cutting these herbs from the sides does not promote bushy growth, so always cut the tops.
• Thyme is also a low growing woody herb but can be pruned halfway down the plant. Never cut all the way back.
• Cilantro can be pruned hard to the ground, and it will return with lush growth. Prune cilantro often. Sometimes if it's left to go to seed, it will return the next year.
Storing the harvested herbs is the most fun part, Boyer said. There are many creative ways to do this depending on whether the herbs are fresh or dried. Fresh herbs can be cut and placed in plastic baggies and put in the refrigerator, except for basil. Basil is cold sensitive and turns dark and blotchy if stored in cold. So it's best, for fresh use, to cut the amount you intend to use and place in a vase of water, much like a flower bouquet. They will keep about a week this way. Herbs will keep about two weeks in the refrigerator.
Another trick with fresh herbs is to cut them finely alone or in blends, like rosemary, basil, thyme and add a teaspoon of herbs to ice trays. Pour water in the trays on top of the herbs and freeze. After the cubes are solid, put them in freezer bags or containers and use for soups, stews and casseroles during the winter.
If herbs are dried by hanging bunches from a ceiling or laid in baskets, then the whole leaves can be placed in glass jars and stored in dark cabinets.
Sunlight destroys the flavor of herbs, so Boyer suggests drying them away from direct sunlight in a dark, airy place and storing them in the same manner. Save old mayonnaise and pimento jars to use as containers.
"I detest plastic containers and never store my herbs in them for they tend to take flavor and aroma away from herbs, and plastic has toxins not wanted in foods," Boyer said. "I store all my herbs whole leaf. That means I strip the leaves off the stem and place them in the jars without crushing or grinding them up. The reason being that once they are ground the essential oils that contain the flavor and aroma dispense quickly into the air and not your food.
"When you are ready to use these whole leaf herbs, just take them from the jars and grind them up with the palm of your hand or with a rolling pin on parchment paper. I also have a new coffee grinder that has never been used for coffee and it works great for powdering herbs as well," she said.
Here's a look at five easy-to-grow herbs and their uses from Cooking Light magazine.
• Basil is one of the most important culinary herbs. Sweet basil, the most common type, is redolent of licorice and cloves. Basil is used in the south of France to make pistou; its Italian cousin, pesto, is made just over the border. Used in sauces, sandwiches, soups, and salads, basil is in top form when married to tomatoes, as in the famous salad from the island of Capri — insalata Caprese, made with tomatoes, buffalo mozzarella, basil and fruity olive oil.
• Rosemary in Latin means "dew of the sea" — appropriate since it is indigenous to the Mediterranean. Rosemary is one of the most aromatic and pungent of all the herbs. Its needlelike leaves have pronounced lemon-pine flavor that pairs well with roasted lamb, garlic and olive oil. Rosemary is also a nice addition to focaccia, tomato sauce, pizza and pork, but because its flavor is strong, use a light hand.
• Thyme comes in dozens of varieties; however, most cooks use French thyme. Undoubtedly thyme is one of the most important herbs of the European kitchen. This congenial herb pairs well with many other herbs — especially rosemary, parsley, sage, savory and oregano. Its earthiness is welcome with pork, lamb, duck or goose, and it's much beloved in Cajun and Creole cooking. Because the leaves are so small, they often don't require chopping.
• Cilantro is sometimes called coriander, or even Chinese parsley. Whatever you call it, chances are you either love it or hate it. This native of southern Europe and the Middle East has a pungent flavor, with a faint undertone of anise. The leaves are often mistaken for flat-leaf parsley, so read the tag. One of the most versatile herbs, cilantro adds distinctive flavor to salsas, soups, stews, curries, salads, vegetables, fish and chicken dishes.
• Sage is native to the northern Mediterranean coast, where it's used frequently in cooking. Sage's long, narrow leaves have a distinctively fuzzy texture and musty flavor redolent of eucalyptus, cedar, lemon and mint. Italians love it with veal, while the French add it to stuffings, cured meats, sausages and pork dishes. Americans, of course, associate it with turkey and dressing. Use it with discretion; it can overwhelm a dish.
Here's a recipe for the summer herb harvest from Boyer and a second from Cooking Light.
Summer Herb Chopped Salad
3 spring onions, chopped
1 zucchini, diced
1 yellow squash, diced
3 or 4 cups lettuce or greens, chopped
8 to 12 cherry or small tomatoes, (heirlooms have great flavor)
1/4 cup finely chopped fresh basil
3 teaspoons finely chopped lemon thyme leaves
1 chopped sprig of rosemary
Toss all together adding a few lemon thyme blooms or any other herb blooms you like. Add a couple of tablespoons of your favorite white creamy salad dressing and toss to mix.
Garlicky Pasta with Fresh Tomatoes and Basil
3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
3 garlic cloves, minced
5 cups chopped plum tomatoes (about 2 pounds)
6 cups hot cooked campanella (about 12 ounces uncooked pasta)
1/3 cup chopped fresh basil
1/4 cup (1 ounce) grated fresh Parmesan cheese
1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
Heat olive oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high heat. Add minced garlic; saute 30 seconds. Add chopped tomatoes; cook for 2 minutes or until thoroughly heated, stirring occasionally. Add pasta, basil, cheese, salt and pepper, tossing gently to combine. Makes 6 servings.

– DOJ Mysteriously Quits Monsanto Antitrust Investigation (Mother Jones, Dec, 1, 2012):
There's an age-old tradition in Washington of making unpopular announcements when no one's listening—like, you know, the days leading up to Thanksgiving. That's when the Obama administration sneaked a tasty dish to the genetically modified seed/pesticide industry.This treat involves the unceremonious end of the Department of Justice's antitrust investigation into possible anticompetitive practices in the US seed market, which it had begun in January 2010. It's not hard to see why DOJ would take a look. For the the crops that cover the bulk of US farmland like corn, soy, and cotton, the seed trade is essentially dominated by five companies: Monsanto, DuPont, Syngenta, Bayer, and Dow. And a single company, Monsanto, supplies nearly all genetically modified traits now so commonly used in those crops, which it licenses to its rivals for sale in their own seeds.
What's harder to figure out is why the DOJ ended the investigation without taking any action—and did so with a near-complete lack of public information. The DOJ didn't even see fit to mark the investigation's end with a press release. News of it emerged from a brief item Monsanto itself issued the Friday before Thanksgiving, declaring it had "received written notification" from the DOJ antitrust division that it had ended its investigation "without taking any enforcement action."

Mind the gap: Teaching doesn't meet gay Catholics in the pews
Which path do we choose when the twain of experience and church teaching don't meet?
Over three decades of Mass-going, I've explored pretty much every avenue of distraction to make the time pass: pestering my brothers, making faces at buddies who were serving, and, in my adult years, reading the bulletin. I've found all but the last to earn me trouble, but I think I've found a new and completely respectable remedy to my wandering attention: A beautiful brown-eyed girl named Isa.
With no kids of my own, I admit to being an occasional baby-thief--did I mention Isa is 11 months old?--and Isa's parents are happy to let me have her for as long as I can handle her. There's only one sticking point: To borrow the title of a controversial children's book, Isa has two mommies.
I realize some might be surprised to hear of a family like Isa's at a Catholic church, or even troubled by their presence. After all, both the Vatican and the U.S. bishops have been unequivocal in their rejection of same-sex relationships and parenting. The U.S. bishops put it plainly in their November 2009 pastoral letter on marriage: "The legal recognition of same-sex unions poses a multifaceted threat to the very fabric of society." Vatican documents have argued that placing children for adoption with same-sex couples is to commit a kind of violence against those children.
Such language is, I'm sure, hard on Isa's Catholic parents, trying as they are to raise a child as a committed couple. I know it is hard on the parents of gay and lesbian Catholics: I'll never forget the father who, at a conference on the church and homosexuality, expressed to the two retired bishops in attendance both grief and outrage that his partnered lesbian daughter was not welcome in the church he had faithfully raised her in.
On the one hand, there is the Catholic Church's clear and consistent teaching that a homosexual orientation is an "objective disorder" and that sex between people of the same gender is "intrinsically evil," that is, can never be morally justified. That stance logically progresses to opposition to gay marriage and parenting, which is no doubt shared by many Catholics who are alarmed at attempts to change the legal definition of marriage.
On the other hand, others, myself included, hear a different story from gay and lesbian Catholics, especially when they speak of their aspirations to commitment and family life. To think of Isa's family as "a multifaceted threat" is profoundly jarring to say the least. I'm sure I'm not the only Catholic who feels stuck between the teaching of the church and my own experience, though Catholics are certainly not free to dismiss the former just because it contradicts the latter.
At the same time the profound disconnect between the experience of conscientious baptized people and church teaching should concern all of us. The wider the chasm, the greater the danger that people will simply reject church teaching as out of touch, not only undermining its authority on matters of sexuality but also on other pressing moral issues. One need only consider the nearly complete divergence between the church's teaching on birth control and the decisions of Catholic married couples to find a case in point.
In its Pastoral Constitution on the Church in the Modern World, the Second Vatican Council proclaimed that "the joys and the hopes, the griefs and the anxieties of the people of this age...are the joys and hopes, the griefs and anxieties of the followers of Christ." That aspiration must extend to the gay and lesbian members of Christ's body, even and perhaps especially when the distance between church teaching and their lives is great.
How we share those joys and hopes, griefs and anxieties, is an open question, but I see no danger in bishops sitting down with gay and lesbian Catholics to speak about these issues. A meeting of the minds may be unlikely, but a meeting of hearts isn't out of the question. The first law of the gospel, after all, is charity, and it is charity that has often been a casualty in the church's debate about homosexuality.
As for me, I can only say that my experience of the "catholic," or universal, dimension of the church would be profoundly diminished if Isa's family wasn't a part of my Sunday assembly. Though life in Christ's body is not always neat or easy, sticking together makes us, or so I hope, a fuller sign to the world of the love God extends to all people.

This article appeared in a January 2017 issue of the student newsletter.
For the first time ever, all the colleges of DCCCD will share a common website design and navigation.
Introducing the Unified Student Experience (USE) website! Going live next month, the USE website will offer students consistency as they move back and forth between the district and college websites.
You can also learn more about the USE website project below.
Last year, DCCCD launched an important study to examine what it was like to be a student attending a Dallas Community College. This districtwide research included 70 students – each sharing their experiences with admissions, advising, financial aid, classes and much more.
One common theme that emerged was students want consistency as they move from college to college, especially on the colleges' websites.
By Sept. 2016, the USE project emerged. The project goal is to ensure a unified web experience for every student, at every district location, every time.
The USE website has three key objectives informing its look and feel. All three of these objectives work to deliver students a unified experience no matter what Dallas Community College website they are visiting.
This means as students move from one college website – such as Richland College – to another – like Eastfield College – information can be found in the same location. "Student Life" will be always be at the top right. And contact information will always appear in the website footer.
Ashley Horton, who currently takes classes at Brookhaven and North Lake College, thinks the new navigation will benefit students.
"I see how [consistency] would help future students attending different DCCCD colleges become familiar with where everything is on each of the websites, instead of having to dig on each different site to find what the student needs."
The USE website will feature districtwide content – like the admission process, which is the same at each location – and college-specific content – like the hours for the Testing Center, which differs depending on which college you visit. The content that an individual user sees will depend on what college they've selected (in the top right), or essentially what section of the USE site they are in.
To keep navigation light and clear, The USE website uses white space and icons to create a visual design that isn't word-heavy.
"We are trying to keep the student at the center of what we're doing," explains Luis Merino. "That includes lots of user testing to find out what's the best, clearest, easiest way to get students answers they are seeking."
Merino is one of the designers who is working on the new USE website. The new designs were based on feedback from students and college marketing staff.
"Based on those discussions, we came up with our design requirements," says Merino. "The design needs to make students feel welcome and comfortable. The structure and navigation play a big part in that."
The USE website will be oriented for new and prospective students, with much of the information for current students relocating to
myPortal (which requires a
DCCCD Student Email to log in).
Employees around the entire district are teaming up to launch the USE website this February.
"We know fine tuning will be needed after the website launches," explains Gina Federer, one of USE project leaders, "but it's the first step in giving students the consistency they're seeking."
Curious what the new USE website means for you? Below are a few FAQs to help answer any questions you may have.
Q: What should I expect to see when the USE website goes live? A: From a visual standpoint, you will immediately recognize that all of websites are now aligned and have common navigation.
In regards to content, all the key content that new students need will be available at launch, including schedules, registration, etc.
The current websites will remain accessible with an alternative URL while additional content migration takes place (for example: alt.brookhavencollege.edu and alt.richlandcollege.edu).
The colleges of DCCCD will continue to update and improve the new USE site after the February launch.
Will there be photos of students like me on the new website? A: Yes. During user testing of the website, the designers learned that current and future students prefer images of real students over purchased stock images.
Q: What will the main navigation links be? A: Great question. You can
see mockups of the website here [PDF - 9 MB].
You'll notice at the top of the page, below the large logo, the following tabs:
Also, above the large logo, you'll find key links to:
This final link, "Our Colleges" allows you to quickly change what college website you are viewing. Each college website is part of the parent website with common navigation and design.
Q: Where will student clubs and organizations be listed on the new website? A: You'll be able to easily access those from any page. Click "Student Life" in the top right.

Man arrested, charged in North Point barricade situation
Police called to Winner Distribution Co. Wednesday
Baltimore County police have arrested and charged a Dundalk man after a barricade situation in the North Point area that lasted several hours Wednesday afternoon.
Police and tactical officers were called to Winner Distribution Co. in the 7600 block of Canton Center Drive shortly before 2:30 p.m.
The incident began as a disturbance at a nearby K-Mart, according to authorities.
"He was only in the K-Mart for a very brief period of time when he fled to the nearby Colgate community," said police spokeswoman Elise Armacost.
Officials said the man, identified Thursday as 32-year-old Clifton Duncan Jr., then broke into an unoccupied house by throwing a rock through a window. From there, Armacost said he went to Winner Distribution, a distributor for Anheuiser Busch. Forty-five people were evacuated from the business after he walked through the front doors, police said.
"A young guy came in and said that he was shot, that he needed help, and then proceeded to barricade himself right into the warehouse office," said warehouse employee Curtis Authenreath. He said Duncan appeared to be injured, but he didn't stick around to investigate.
Police said Duncan refused to come out. Officers weren't sure if he was armed or had a hostage, but they were able to communicate with him and eventually were able to take him into custody around 6:45 p.m.
Duncan was charged with first-degree burglary, malicious destruction of property, five counts of false imprisonment and other offenses. He is being held at the Baltimore County Detention Center on $350,000 bail.
No one was injured in the incident, police said, and they confirmed no hostages were involved. Although some employees said that Duncan appeared to be injured when he went into the warehouse, police haven't released anything about his condition.
Officers also searched the area but said they weren't able to find a gun, so it's not clear if Duncan was ever armed.
The incident prompted a lockdown at nearby Colgate Elementary School as a precaution.
"Mr. Conley said on the announcements, 'Code red lock down,' and then Ms. Scur said, 'Hurry, get against the wall.' And then I got scared. I was crying and everything," said student Arianna Brown.
Students who normally walk to and from school were kept at the building until 5:30 p.m. All children returned home safely, according to police.

FindLegalForms.com, one of the most established legal form providers, needs one single already existing page redesigned with a new fresh look.
Users of our FindLegalForms.com website who wish to find out more about our subscription service.
Typical users are both males and females, 60% are over 35, have at least a college degree and make over $60,000 a year.

Redesign our existing page currently found at: http://www.findlegalforms.com/xcart…scribe.php . Feel free to be creative and to think out of the box without loosing focus of the goal for the page: Selling subscriptions.
The redesign:
1. Should include our current logo and header (no new logo design is needed)
2. Should include the right column content i.e. support, ask a question, guarantees, testimonials, McAfee, BBB and Verisign logos. However, these elements do not need to be in the right column but can be integrated in other places in the new design.
3. Should include all subscription benefit, but they do not have to be in the current order or format.
4. Should include link to the Subscription FAQ
5. May include the screen-shots in the current design. They may also be left out.

3. We do not need to have the credit card and PayPal radio button options on the page since those will be offered on the subsequent payment page.

Earlier this month, we took an in-depth look at JCPenney's intensive social media apology tour that aimed to win back approximately one third of its customers.
Consumers defected under Ron Johnson's "hipper," coupon-free JCP leadership.
May 1 the retailer released a commercial, made by Young & Rubicam, in which it admitted "it's no secret" that things changed for the worst. JCPenney then unrolled a social media effort to ask customers' suggestions and respond to virtually anyone that tweeted using #JCPListens, taking the hashtag quite seriously. It even brought back an axed clothing brand consumers said they missed on Facebook.
The Twitter effort has been very well recieved, and JCPenney is convinced it can change all the haters' minds.
But today it appears that the JCPenney apology tour is coming to a close with the emergence of a "thank you" ad for all of the customers who have "come back to us." Less than two weeks later. A voiceover says:
At J.C. Penney, we never stop being amazed by you. How you work so hard without looking like you do. How you make every dollar stretch so far and keep your family so close. So we brought back the things you like about J.C. Penney, gave you new things to explore and now, we're happy to say, you've come back to us. We're speechless, except for two little words. Thank you.
While thanking consumers is a good thing, is JCPenney speaking too soon? Positive social media reactions are one thing, but the retailer lost $4.3 billion in sales in 2012. Do positive tweets translate to bodies in the brick and mortar stores?
The Q1 earnings results will go public May 16, but the company's preliminary release states that it's anticipating a 16.4% decrease from this time last year. However, JCPenney notes, "The Company noted that results for the quarter also reflect its prior pricing and marketing strategies, which are being changed under new leadership."
Although JCPenney has cooled it on promoting #JCPListens — the company hasn't tweeted it from its main stream since May 3 — it is still using the same strategy from earlier this month of addressing customers' concerns.
For example, more than 2,000 people have liked JCPenney's Facebook "thank you" post in an hour:
But the retailer was quick to address a critical customer's concerns.
The apologies are over, and now it's time to rebuild.
Here's the "thank you" ad:
JCPenney sales have gone up, but Wall Street analysts credit the company's promotions...not the ad.
Do you think that JCPenney is jumping the gun by thanking its customers now?

Today is the last full day to file for candidacy in the November municipal elections.
Today is the last full day to file for candidacy in the November municipal elections.
And so far most of the races have at least one candidate vying for office.
�Pretty much everyone has thrown their hat in the ring that�s going to go. I think we still need two more from Holly Ridge but other than that it�s good to go,� Board of Elections Director Rose Whitehurst said.
Whitehurst said that filing has gone about how she expected though it remains slow.
On Wednesday, a fifth candidate filed to run for a Swansboro commissioner seat. June L. Buchanan filed before 10 a.m. Wednesday to run for one of the three seats.
Buchanan said that after watching Swansboro's growth and progress for many years and moving to the area more than a year ago, she decided to run for commissioner.
�I think it's very important to maintain the balance in the growth of the community, the economic growth, and the quality of life standards. That's what makes Swansboro such a special place,� she said.
She joins the contested race that includes incumbent Larry Philpott, who filed Monday to run for Swansboro commissioner.
Philpott told The Daily News on Wednesday that the decision to file for reelection was one made in the last four to five days. He said he has enjoyed working with other board members and being involved with the several initiatives in the town, including recreation and town improvements.
The main reason to run, he said, was simply �just serving the people of Swansboro.�
Richard Peters filed to run for North Topsail Beach alderman around noon Wednesday.
Peters could not be immediately reached for comment.
Deadline to file is noon Friday.
Amanda Hickey is the government reporter at The Daily News. She can be reached at email@example.com.

The spectacle that is this city's Central Market could be a metaphor for the cultural melange that is Suriname.
In stalls outside under the blazing equatorial sun, an ethnic mix of vendors offered fresh and smoked fish, fruits and vegetables, fish eggs, Barbie as Rapunzel-themed shopping bags. There was a slot for a barber, and there's Ping's Restaurant.
Inside, the air was heavy and had a vaguely unpleasant smell. Fish mongers chopped away at their vacant-eyed, 2-foot-long catches. A gutted armadillo lay on its back, awaiting a customer. In another huge room, prepared food was for sale. A pharmacy offered conventional fare along with folk potions and herbal remedies.
And throughout there was the din of languages: Dutch (the official language), Sranan Tongo (the local Creole dialect), Hindi, Javanese and the languages of the Maroon and Amerindian natives.
Our guide for the day, Njoek (sounds like Nuke), effortlessly shifted from English to Dutch to whatever as she sweet-talked vendors into letting my girlfriend and me photograph them. And she sweet-talked us into trying peanuts, ginger beer, a coffee cake-like delicacy called viado and pastei, a meat pie of chicken, carrots and peas.
Suriname, which was Dutch Guiana until 1954, sits on South America's northeast coast, with French Guiana to the east, Guyana to the west and Brazil to the south. For a country of only about half a million, it has an amazing diversity of cultures. The Dutch colonized it in the 1600s and used slave labor from Africa to grow coffee, sugar cane and cotton on plantations. They abolished slavery in the mid-1800s and turned to indentured workers from Indonesia, China and India.
Today this amalgam of cultures exists amicably. Paramaribo may be the only city in the world where you'll find a mosque next to a synagogue and the intersection of Indira Gandhi/JFK Highway with MLK Highway.
In late March, we spent 11 days exploring this mix of cultures, history and the Amazon jungle through the Complete Suriname, a package put together by the Great Canadian Travel Co.
Late in the afternoon of our first day in Paramaribo (pronounced Par-uh-MAR-ih-bo), culture and nature combined on the Suriname River as we watched pink dolphins swim amid a cluster of fishermen in small boats. Snowy egrets perched here and there on the boats, hoping to snatch a fish when nets were pulled in.
A bit later our guide Landi motored up a narrow channel to a small village on land that had been a plantation. In the mangroves that lined the waterway, an orange howler monkey jumped through the foliage just above our heads.
The next day, "oooohs" and "ahhhhhs" erupted as large blue morpho butterflies occasionally flitted ahead of our narrow motorized canoes on tiny Warappa Creek. We were staying overnight in modest (but air-conditioned) lodgings at the nearby small settlement of Bakkie. Sampling another culture, our dinner was roti, an Indian dish of chicken and potatoes with a curry sauce, eaten by wrapping it in chunks of flatbread.
Most of the land in this area once was plantations, and it is crisscrossed by footpaths and small canals that irrigated the crops. While walking a path the next morning, our guide Yves chatted with a local farmer sitting on his front porch, sorting through beans he had harvested. In a day's time, he said, he would pick through about 65 pounds of beans, discarding the bad ones.
The country's Maroon culture began to develop in the 1600s, when African slaves escaped the plantations, fleeing into the jungle to set up their own societies. Today they may venture into Paramaribo to sell their produce or find work, but villages such as Santigron, south of the capital, remain insular and primitive. On the day we visited there were few people out, and our guide Juergen warned that our cameras weren't welcome, at least not until he greased a few palms.
A Maroon woman grudgingly consented to be photographed as she washed clothes in a bucket while her toddler solemnly watched from the porch, thumb firmly planted in mouth.
A plane ride away, a more modern culture mixes with nature at Kabalebo, an eco-resort in the wilds of the Amazon rain forest in west-central Suriname. From our single-engine plane, the rain forest canopy stretched to the horizon, unbroken save for the occasional snaking river. People and supplies get there only by plane, and the nearest village is 90 miles away.
Nature doesn't give up its secrets here as readily as in a National Geographic film. A toucan teasingly flew into a tree on the resort grounds, then as quickly disappeared. On a jungle path, macaws flitted through the treetops, cackling mockingly. The occasional spider monkey swung high above.
But on two nights we watched in fascination as two ocelots warily chowed down on meat that had been placed out for them at the edge of the resort.
That adventure is worth the trip.
After our days in the rain forest, what else was there to do but be on top of the rain forest? Fishing for piranha and peacock bass was ostensibly the reason for our visit to Brokopondo Reservoir, but the landscape is what really attracted us.
This is one of the world's largest reservoirs, and it covers more than 600 square miles of what used to be villages and vast areas of rain forest. Just the rain forest's ghosts remain. At times the depth finder on our boat showed the water to be 130 feet deep, yet the remnants of thousands of trees still jutted toward the sky, creating a wonderfully surreal picture.
No fish to take home that day. Just memories.

Video shows man pull gun in NC road rage fight
A man has turned himself in after cell phone video captured an assault and a gun being pulled during a road rage incident Sunday.
Bradley Turner turned himself in around 4 p.m. at the Lenoir County Courthouse, WITN reported.
Turner was charged with discharging a weapon into property, two counts of assault by pointing a gun, going armed to the terror of the people, injury to personal property and assault.
His wife, Christy Turner, also turned herself in and was charged with two counts of assault by pointing a gun.
Investigators released video of the fight that happened around 1 p.m. Sunday just off U.S. 70 in Newport in Carteret County.
The video shows a man getting out of an SUV and asking the driver of a pickup truck why he ran him off the road. The pickup driver and his passenger began beating up the SUV driver, throwing him to the ground.
A woman then calmly walks out of the SUV and gives the man a pistol. He points it at the men who beat them up, who hurry into the pickup and drive away as the man fires several shots.
Deputies say no one was hurt.

As part of its push to go more social, Google has been attempting to unify its various account profiles into one Google Profile. And now it's more useful. Google's Brad Fitzpatrick has just tweeted out that Google Profiles can now be used as OpenIDs.
What this means is that you can sign into any site that accepts OpenID simply by using your Google Profile domain. Luckily, a few months ago Google started allowing these profiles to have vanity URLs, like /mgsiegler, instead of the previous /32090329039402903. Chris Messina, a huge proponent of the open web movement, has just sent out a picture of signing in with OpenID via your Google Profile (below).
