Security Council Breaks In Uproar Over 2118 Non Compliance
In a sad ending to the 88th UN Security Council meeting, members were seen throwing accusations on each other over the non-compliance of the 2118 resolution.
According to the resolution, the Assad regime in Syria was supposed to get rid of its entire chemical stockpile that had led to the sad death of many Syrian refugees. The resolution was adopted in September 2013, following a UN investigation that confirmed the use of chemical weapons against civilians in a Damascus suburb in August that year. Images of people, including children, suffocating after breathing in the nerve agent caused outrage worldwide.
It was considered one of the biggest human rights violation and a heinous war crime. By mid-2014, Syria had not complied with agreed steps to elimination. At the time of agreement, punitive measures were also agreed in the event of non-compliance. Accordingly, the resolution also banned Syria from using, developing, producing, acquiring, stockpiling or retaining chemical weapons, or transferring them to other states or non-state actors.
Seven years since, the compliance has been minimal, shared Izumi Nakamitsu, the UN’s under-secretary-general and high representative for disarmament affairs. Of the 22 issues earmarked, Nakamitsu declared that 19 issues remain outstanding as investigations continue into allegations of the use of chemical weapons in a ‘variety of incidents’ in Syria.
The resolution has become a mockery as Russia continued to support Assad regime even after the latter had submitted a formal report to the Organization for the Prohibition of Chemical Weapons (OPCW) about its intent and implementation of the resolution. What led to the argument is the revelation that in fact the dangerous chemical weaponry and agents were not produced in Syria but elsewhere.
As Nakamitsu urged everyone to unite and work together towards the common good of holding those responsible for creating chemical weaponry, the gathering became a blame game. “I say this every month because it bears consistent repeating,” said Nakamitsu. “There is an urgent need to not only identify but hold accountable all those who have used chemical weapons in violation of international law. Without such an action, we are allowing the use of chemical weapons to take place with impunity.”
As of now, the US and 45 co-sponsors have submitted a draft decision to the OPCW’s Conference of the States Parties in response to the Syrian regime’s failure to comply with measures requested by the OPCW Executive Council, demanding that the regime take action to address the situation.

Khan and his colleagues have been monitoring data from these stations since 2001 and have found that the southeastern tip of the country is definitely rising upwards. They have also found that the rate of rise has dramatically accelerated in recent years.
“Before 2004, the uplift was about 0.5 cm to 1 cm per year,” Khan told New Scientist. Since then, however, the land has been rising four times faster. “This means that since 2004, Greenland has been losing four times more ice than before,” he says.
These figures roughly correspond to other measurements of how much ice is being lost by the ice sheet.
In 2006, a team led by Eric Rignot from NASA’s Jet Propulsion Laboratory in Pasadena, California, US, published findings suggesting that there had been a sudden acceleration in the rate at which Greenland was losing ice during 2004.

This was so easy to make and it came out perfect! Thank you!
I think the mustard plus relish are too overwhelming and eliminate the egg taste, which I love. I prefer adding celery instead, with a sprinkling of dill.
Delicious ! I doubled the recipe. My Husband and I thought it tasted like potato salad. I guess it was the mustard. Thank you for the recipe.
This is the closest I have ever found to what I want egg salad to taste like! I added a little salt.
I usually make egg salad with all the ingredients you've mentioned.........with the exception of the relish. I made this today and added the relish (although my DH was skeptical - lol) and we both loved it and I'll be making it this way from now on. Thanks for sharing!
I simply love this recipe! Pure and simple. Just like momma used to make when I was little. I have it committed to memory, and will use this method often. Thank you for sharing.
I used a little bit more of light mayonnaise. So yummy. Thanks Ann Marie :)
easy, simple recipe for egg salad. I hadn't made it in years so I wanted something that helped refresh me on what the basic ingrediants were. This did just that. However in the end, felt as though it were missing some sort of spice, not sure what.
Yum! Very simple and good. I usually add celery to mine, but enjoyed the relish. Thanks Ann Marie for sharing. Made for Zaar Alphabet Chef Tag.
Best egg salad sandwich on Zaar - I have either tried the others, or did not have all the ingredients asked for. This is simple enough to make with items that are always in my fridge. I saw another reviewer had added chopped celery, so I did that, and was quite pleased. I like relish so I tried that after tasting it first without the relish - and found that it's not bad, either way. I like the crispiness of the celery combined with the softness of the eggs. Added Caramelized Onions and about 1 teaspoon leftover powdered sugar from another recipe I made off Zaar (#88812). Don't like mustard, but this was the right amount to make it taste good. Awesome!

A jet ski slices through the blue water leaving behind a line of white foam. In the distance, a few cargo ships benignly watch the port. My room in the newly opened Kempinski Hotel Aqaba is swanky, with white interiors. The view is even better.
With the Red Sea sparkling under a midday sun and a clear blue sky, the sight is very different from the rosy sandstone cliffs of Petra. The port town of Aqaba is on the southernmost tip of Jordan while being the northernmost point on the Red Sea. Strategically placed thus, Aqaba was eyed by many.
The town was first occupied by the Nabataeans and then by the Romans who used it as a trading port until it was taken over by the Byzantine Empire.
Next came the Crusaders who built an offshore fort on Fa’run Island. After several skirmishes between Saladin, the Crusaders, the Mameluk Sultans and finally the Ottomans, Aqaba became part of Jordan, thanks to the British and Lawrence of Arabia.
The three-hour drive from Petra to Aqaba is full of barren hills, rugged mountains and surprising patches of vegetation.
In August 2000, Aqaba was declared an economic “free zone”. All trade within this free zone is exempt of duty and is a lot more economical than the rest of Jordan.

Down by the bobbing jetty, a boat prepares to take divers to a site in the Red Sea, known for its outstanding coral reefs.
Aqaba is something of a water sport and adventure capital of Jordan.
From the hotel I watch as children jump into pools of different sizes, playing and splashing around. A walk around town reveals several horse-drawn carriages awaiting passengers on a busy main street.
The town is quite busy on weekends when locals drive down to Aqaba for some sun and surf. The main street of Aqaba ends at a garden roundabout near the port. Fresh seafood is served in restaurants around Aqaba and I find myself seated at the noisy Captain’s Seafood Restaurant, awaiting my lunch of grilled seafood.
Meze arrives with a basket of Arabian bread. Buses with Italian tourists stop outside and they file into the restaurant.
Tourism in Aqaba is booming, with many hotels and resorts mushrooming around town. It is a city worth returning to for the pleasures of the Red Sea.
In the famous words of Lawrence of Arabia: “I shall be at Aqaba … that is written.”

Woke early this morning, so I headed down to Sydney Harbour. Really great being there before all the crowds arrive. Breakfast at City Extra. Coffee mediocre.
With a friend visiting from the UK, there was a wonderful opportunity for me to be both a "tourist guide", as well as be a "tourist in my own town".

M.F.A, 2023, Studio Art: Metalsmithing and Jewelry
"I see my practice as that of a storyteller who speaks to the hybridization of thoughts, ideas and cultures in a world that continually seeks to create and maintain borders and boundaries."
Atinuke Osibogun-Adeleke is an interdisciplinary artist, an M.F.A. Graduate of the University of North Texas, and the owner and lead designer of the jewelry brand Zuri Perle.
She spent her childhood and college years in Ibadan, Oyo State, Nigeria. After receiving an undergraduate law degree, she moved to England to pursue a master's in international and commercial law. Shortly thereafter, she returned to Nigeria and spent time in Abuja and Lagos before moving to the United States in 2009.
Her artistic practice centers around personal history, connection and identity, a reflection on her experience as a Nigerian who has lived on three continents thus far and how those experiences have led to the deconstruction, reassembly, and hybridization of her identity. Her current work includes sculpture and fiber pieces that incorporate the traditional culture and practices of the place she once called home — Nigeria, western traditional woodworking techniques and modern processes such as CAD, 3D printing, and CNC routing.
Atinuke's work has been in exhibitions at notable institutions and galleries, such as the African American Museum in Dallas, Craighead Green Gallery in Dallas, Touchstone Gallery in Washington D.C, Atlantic Gallery in New York City, and Ellington-White Contemporary Gallery, Fayetteville, N.C.
Her accessories have graced runways at New York Fashion Week and Kansas City Fashion Week and have also been featured in Italiano L'Orafo, Weekly Style Magazine, Fox 4KC, Say Yes to the Dress, and CNN Africa.

With startling statistics hitting the Black community each and every year, it is easy to see why it is so important to raise awareness. Of all racial and ethnic groups in the United States, HIV and AIDS affects Blacks the most. In 2009, an estimated 16,741 Blacks were diagnosed with AIDS in the US, a number that has slowly decreased since 2006. By the end of 2008, an estimated 240,627 Blacks with an AIDS diagnosis had died in the US. In 2007, HIV was the 9th leading cause of death for all Blacks and the 3rd leading cause of death for both Black men and Black women aged 35–44.
Although NBHAAD is a nationwide effort, organizers are focusing efforts on key cities with high HIV infection and AIDS diagnoses to ensure Black communities realize the epidemic is not slowing; and is picking up steam in certain parts of the country… including Chicago. Other cities include Atlanta, Baltimore, Dallas, Detroit, Houston, Los Angeles, Miami, New Orleans, Newark, New York, Oakland, Philadelphia, Raleigh-Durham, San Francisco, Trenton and Washington, D.C.
“National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day is a national HIV/AIDS testing and treatment community mobilization effort designed to encourage Blacks across the United States and Territorial Areas to get educated, get tested, get treated, and get involved with HIV/AIDS,” said Dr. Diana Grant, vice president of medical management at Advocate Trinity Hospital. “Advocate Trinity Hospital is proud to support Nations Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day.”
National Black HIV/AIDS Awareness Day (NBHAAD) has been recognized on February 7th of each and every year, since 2000. This year marks the 13th annual observance of NBHAAD.

10 Amazing Uses for Cannabis Oil
Cannabis Therapy is looking at 10 amazing uses for cannabis oil, to boost your health. There are hundreds of uses for cannabis oil as the amazing cannabis plant contains many different phytocannabinoids (chemical compounds) known to cure many illnesses. Tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) is the main cannabinoid (known for its psychoactive high) while other compounds also assist people to stay healthy: cannnabidiol (CBD), cannabinol (CBN), tetrahydrocannabinol acid (THCA) and others. Many of these carbon compounds can heal pain, inflammation, insomnia and depression without creating a high. People have been using cannabis oil for thousands of years to treat all kinds of diseases and ailments.
See These 10 Amazing Uses for Cannabis Oil:
- Heart health: cannabis oil contains many antioxidants which can boost the state of your heart, preventing strokes, heart attacks and atherosclerosis. In studies, cannabinoids helped veins to relax and dliate to improve circulation and allow blood pressure to decrease.
- Anxiety and stress: cannabis oil is known to relax the active mind and trigger pleasure hormones which immediately lowers stress levels and allows the user to feel calmer and more patient and healthier. Cannabis oil can assist with insomnia which is a side effect of anxiety and it can relieve post traumatic stress disorder too. The cannabinoids actually work in the hippocamapus area of the brain by lessening stress receptors here which cause people to have specific emotional reactions.
- Pain: cannabis is a known pain reliever and has been used for centuries as an analgesic drug. It is a wonderful anti-inflammatory medicine because it changes the way pain signals get to the brain. CBD clings to receptors in the brain and immune system to alleviate pain and inflammation and the way the brain deals with these effects. Take cannabis oil three times a day for arthritis, chronic pain and muscular aches. Cannabis creams can also be used to relieve any pain in joints and skin.
- Obesity and Anorexia: people with eating disorders can use cannabis oil to stimulate or hinder their appetites. Cannabis oil can assist anorexics because it activates their appetite and hunger for food by helping release the right hormones. It can also activate hormones that stop people eating so much and assists with obesity in this case. Doctors need to manipulate the cannabinoids to stimulate the right hormones for each eating disorder and allow better weight control.
- Eye Health: cannabis oil can be used to decrease the amount of intraocular pressure in the eye (IOP). Patients with glaucoma can take cannabis oil every few hours to relieve the pressure in their eyes. Glaucoma affects the optic nerve and can result in blindness if not treated properly. More research is needed into how cannabis oil can be better used to treat eye disorders and maintain general eye health.
- Cancer: so much has been written about the benefits of cannabis oil to treat cancer. While this is true, most studies have taken place in a petri dish in a lab or on animals so more research is needed on humans to prove that cannabis oil can in fact cure cancer. But what scientists have found is that cannabis oil can stimulate cancer cells to commit suicide (apoptosis); stop the cancer cells dividing; stop new blood vessels forming and then forming tumours; halting the spread of cancer tumours in the body. CBD and THC also reduce the terrible side effects of chemotherapy and can be used in conjunction with these medications.
- Seizures (fits): it all goes back to cannabis oil being a sedative and a pain reliever and an anti-inflammatory.

Adapting to a bleak oil crunch scenario
If you haven’t already, it may be time to start some long-term planning on lifestyle changes to accommodate the continuing escalation of gas prices. That’s the message I got from Elizabeth Douglass’ story in the Los Angeles Times today: “Why the oil crunch may grow worse.”
In five years, demand for oil may exceed 94 million barrels a day and continue rising, spurred by growth in China and India, the International Energy Agency estimates. Experts put daily global production at between 82 million and 86 million barrels, and even the most optimistic oil authorities can’t see production keeping up with demand without a big boost from unconventional sources such as Canada’s vast oil sands or U.S. oil shale. Getting crude from such sources is more difficult, expensive and environmentally harmful.
The story includes a commute calculator to help you estimate your driving costs. Of course, even the cost of taking public transportation is increasing — which can make doing the math on the hit to your wallet a bit of a challenge. The American Public Transportation Association has a calculator that helps. I tried it and it says, at current costs, I’ll save around $1,200 in a year by sticking with my new routine of taking the L.A. subway and buses.

The Tesla Cybertruck is slowly becoming a reality. In October, after several years of teasers and design changes, the company said the design was set in stone and started tooling for production lines. However, new leaks suggest changes are still ongoing.
New images emerged this week on Instagram and Twitter showing the Tesla Cybertruck with some unique new side-view mirrors. As you can see, the latest mirrors have a triangular design and sharp edges, just like the Cybertruck itself.
The original pre-production model from the initial announcement didn’t have any mirrors. Then, eventually, several prototypes were spotted with the same type of mirrors you’ll find on most vehicles. However, those large, rounded, plastic mirrors looked out of place on the angled steel of the Cybertruck.
It didn’t make sense to have all sorts of sharp angles on the truck but then round ABS plastic mirrors. Whether you like the look or not, it looks like Tesla could at least match those sharp lines and wild designs of the truck with other components, like the side mirrors.
We’re not sure how functional that type of mirror is, but at least it looks good. However, we can’t say if that’ll be what arrives on production units, as Tesla is constantly changing things. However, Elon Musk recently posted on Twitter that he’s viewed production beta versions of the vehicle and said, “it is incredible.” For now, we’ll have to wait and see.

The execs at entertainment-marketing specialist Buzztone and production house/branded-entertainment outfit cYclops Productions think so. The two companies are pitching brands the opportunity to be the presenting sponsor of a six-month, 50 market national tour tentatively called "Hip-hop Immortals."
Buzztone President Josh Taekman and cYclops CEO Mike Jurkovac are selling marketers on the branding benefits of chronicling the ascent of one of pop culture's most popular art forms.
%%PULLQUOTE_RIGHT%% "It's a 53-foot tractor trailer, which will be appointed with some of the most sacred artifacts of hip-hop history going back to the early days [with groups like Run DMC] all the way through to Eminem," enthused Taekman. The vehicle is the same one that housed last year's Mobile Graceland tour, showcasing keepsakes from the life of Elvis Presley. Jurkovac's team at cYclops was the architect of Mobile Graceland.
"Based on our experience with Mobile Graceland, and the pervasive influence of hip-hop culture right now … we think the time is right to mount the Hip-hop Immortals exhibit. It's clearly a natural fit for so many youth and fashion-oriented brands," said Jurkovac.
Taekman said promises have been secured from major hip-hop artists to participate, including the likes of the Beastie Boys, Public Enemy, and NWA.
Integrated marketing components are being arranged as well as local radio-station support to offer brands the ability to do live remote broadcasts, creating a block party-type atmosphere.
If a brand agrees to underwrite the production, a fourth quarter kick-off is being planned.

|Peach Jam With Lemon Basil. Read on for recipe.|
Of course, I think it's worth it. There's nothing better than opening up a jar of peak-season produce in the winter and transporting yourself right back to those sunny days of August. But it is easy to be reminded of the fact that putting up is connected to growing your own. That is, it does make a little more economic sense to can produce that you have in abundance, a prospect that costs you little more than sweat equity. (Not that there's anything cheap about sweat equity, as I can attest.)
Anyway, when our Let's Lunch blogging crew tossed around the idea of focusing on a farmers market find for this month's post, I was immediately on board. This year, even though I'm living with my sister and brother-in-law on the Maine homestead, where we're trying to grow as much of our food as possible, I'm also hitting plenty of farmers markets to supplement here and there. For one thing, I've got recipes of my own to test for my next cookbook, and I don't want to use up more than my share of the garden's bounty. For another thing, my sister founded the North Berwick Farmers Market and manages it every week, I usually to help her with setup or breakdown, and I love supporting the farmers there.
|Lemon basil from Moondance Gardens.|
I've been cooking up plenty of farmers market finds over the months, but this week I found my favorite use for something I got there. We grow plenty of herbs on the homestead -- three kinds of basil, cilantro, parsley, rosemary, sage, thyme, oregano, and more -- but there's one that we don't grow, and I couldn't resist it when I saw it, or rather smelled it, among the display of Rae Avery of Moondance Gardens in South Berwick. I was helping her load her truck after the market, caught a whiff of that lemon basil, pretty much gasped out loud, and she insisted I take it. She wouldn't take a penny, either. Then, after Peter and Rebekah came home with a bushel of peaches they picked from a friend's property, also gratis, and I was noodling ideas for making jam, the combination seemed like it a natural.
I consulted Rachel Saunders' stunning guide, "The Blue Chair Jam Cookbook," and, specifically, her late-summer peach jam recipe. I took a couple of liberties. Out went the use of the peach pits and the peach branches. We didn't have the latter, and I was too lazy to deal with the former. In went the lemon basil. I dispensed with the step of mashing half the fruit, because I wanted to see as many whole peach slices as possible. My sister has made this jam before, and I've tasted and loved it, and figured that the lemon basil would be a nice addition. At the risk of overstating the connections, peaches go well with lemons, peaches go well with basil, lemons go well with basil, lemon basil tastes like lemon and basil, and ... what more do I need to say?
Saunders uses more sugar than I have in my own playing with peach jam, but I have to say, I've come around to her way of thinking, because the result is so jewel-like and perfect. In this case, the lemon basil provides a slightly sharp, herbal-tart counterpoint to the sweetness, and it gives layered complexity to the jam. Immediately, I knew I'd be as likely to pair this with goat cheese on crostini (and other savory applications) as I would to stir it into homemade yogurt.
The jam distinguishes itself from the yogurt and the goat cheese in one very important way, besides its outstanding flavor: It cost me nothing more than my time.
|Lemon basil steeping in the jam.|
Peach Jam With Lemon Basil
Makes 8 to 10 half-pints
6 1/2 pounds large ripe yellow freestone peaches
3 pounds sugar
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lemon juice
4 large branches (12 sprigs) lemon basil
Bring a large pot of water to a boil, reduce to a high simmer, and drop the peaches into the water for a minute or two. Drain and let them cool, then carefully slip the peels off with your hands or, if the peaches aren't quite ripe, with a paring knife. Halve and pit the peaches and cut them into 1/2-inch slices.
Put the slices into a mixing bowl and stir in the sugar and lemon juice. Cover with plastic wrap or parchment, pushing it directly onto the surface of the peaches, and macerate for at least 8 hours or overnight, either in the refrigerator or at room temperature.
When you're ready to make the jam, preheat the oven to 250 degrees and put five metal teaspoons into the freezer for testing the jam later. Sterilize your canning jars, rings, and lids by washing them in hot soapy water and rinsing them. Transfer the jars and lids to a baking sheet and put them in the oven, baking them until you're ready to make the jam.
Transfer the peaches to a large, wide pot set over high heat. Stir well to incorporate any undissolved sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil and let it boil for 5 minutes. Turn off the heat and skim off all the foam.
Return the mixture to medium-high heat and cook until thickened, stirring with a heat-proof spatula and scraping the bottom of the pot to prevent sticking or scorching, 25 to 40 minutes. (Lower the heat as the mixture thickens to also prevent scorching.) Test for doneness by turning off the heat and placing a small amount of jam onto one of the teaspoons in your freezer. Return to the freezer for 3 to 4 minutes and check the consistency. If it’s too runny, continue cooking for a few more minutes and test again. While you're testing the consistency and the jam is off the heat, skim off any remaining foam. When the jam is as thick as you'd like, add the lemon basil sprigs or branches, pushing them under the surface of the jam.
Remove the jars and lids from the oven.
Allow the lemon basil to steep for about 5 minutes, then taste the jam to make sure enough of the herbal flavor has come through, leaving it for longer if desired. Remove the lemon basil with tongs, shaking off excess jam, and discard.
Pour the jam into the sterilized jars, leaving 1/4 inch of head room. Run a chopstick around the inside edge of the jars to break up any air bubbles, wipe the rims clean with a paper towel, and add the lids and screw on the rings until they are just barely tightened. Process by returning the jars to the 250-degree oven for 15 minutes. Transfer the jars to a cooling rack to sit overnight undisturbed. They will seal as they cool. The next day, transfer any jars that didn't seal to the refrigerator, where they can be stored for up to 3 months. The sealed jars can be stored at room temperature for up to 1 year.

Pope Benedict XVI has criticised the “increasing tide of secularism” in Britain, in his second comments on the country in a week.
By Martin Beckford
The pontiff condemned support for euthanasia, which he said goes directly against the Christian understanding of the dignity of human life, and recent developments in embryo research.
He also said that too many people see the Roman Catholic Church in terms of “prohibitions and retrograde positions” but ignore its positive vision of the world.
The pope added that faith schools are a “powerful force” for improving society.
It comes just days after Benedict XVI made an unprecedented attack on Labour’s “unjust” equality laws, claiming that they restricted religious freedom.
He made his earlier intervention in politics, which triggered protests from MPs and campaigners, when he met 35 bishops from England and Wales on Monday.
On Friday the pope addressed Scotland’s Catholic bishops at the Vatican, where they had made the five-yearly “ad limina” pilgrimage.
Benedict XVI confirmed that he would journey to Scotland as part of the historic first papal state visit to Britain.
“Later this year, I shall have the joy of being present with you and the Catholics of Scotland on your native soil,” he said.
But he told the bishops they must “evangelise society” as he highlighted his concerns about the country.
The pope said: “That task requires a readiness to grapple firmly with the challenges presented by the increasing tide of secularism in your country.
“Support for euthanasia strikes at the very heart of the Christian understanding of the dignity of human life.
“Recent developments in medical ethics and some of the practices advocated in the field of embryology give cause for great concern.”
Last month Margo MacDonald, a member of the Scottish Parliament, published a bill that would let terminally ill people ask a doctor to help them end their lives. This would go even further than the guidelines for England and Wales being drawn up by the Director of Public Prosecutions, Keir Starmer, which are likely to state that anyone who helps a loved one die will not be prosecuted unless they did it for profit or the victim was not seriously ill.
In 2008 the UK Parliament passed a law that would allow the creation of hybrid human-animal embryos to help develop cancer treatments.
The pope went on: “The Church offers the world a positive and inspiring vision of human life, the beauty of marriage and the joy of parenthood.
“All too often the Church’s doctrine is perceived as a series of prohibitions and retrograde positions, whereas the reality, as we know, is that it is creative and life-giving, and it is directed towards the fullest possible realization of the great potential for good and for happiness that God has implanted within every one of us.
“You can be proud of the contribution made by Scotland’s Catholic schools in overcoming sectarianism and building good relations between communities. Faith schools are a powerful force for social cohesion, and when the occasion arises, you do well to underline this point.”
Cardinal Keith O’Brien, the most senior Catholic in Britain, told the pope: “Your Holiness has let it be known that you will visit Great Britain in the autumn, and we are thrilled that your visit will include Scotland.
“We remember with joy the visit of your venerable predecessor, Pope John Paul II, in 1982.
“We are certain that the Scottish people will give Your Holiness a heartfelt welcome. We hope that your visit to Scotland later this year will bring us renewed encouragement, vigour and joy as we seek to serve Christ in the circumstances of the present day.”
Homosexuality rights campaigners and secular groups have announced that they will stage protests when Benedict XVI arrives in Britain – likely to be in September – after he spoke out so strongly against equality law.
He had in mind the order that Catholic adoption agencies must consider same-sex couples as potential parents, and the clause in the Equality Bill currently before Parliament that could have left churches unable to require that employees are Christians, and forced to admit homosexuals to the priesthood.
Labour later disclosed that it would not seek to reintroduce the contentious clause of the bill, saying: “The Pope's intervention has been noted.”

Stories of Women and Work
“The Broad Experience,” a podcast produced in New York, NY, focuses on working women’s experience. The first half of this “In Other Words” consists of one of those podcasts (brought to us through the Womens’ International News Gathering Service). It’s a smorgasbord of glimpses into issues of women and work around the globe. The second half zooms in on one very specific time and place: Whitefish, Montana, in the early twentieth century, when Dorothy Johnson and other telephone girls struggled to keep their town connected. Beth Judy reads a selection from “When You and I were Young, Whitefish” by Dorothy Johnson (shown below): “Confessions of a Telephone Girl.” This show aired on April 23, 2013, on Montana Public Radio.

Ask a Bookseller about this title
If you've ever suffered through a Passover Seder, you're well aware of the fact that the entire evening can feel like we're still in bondage. There are endless stories, frequent hand washing, and not enough eating. The book you hold before you is no ordinary Haggadah. For This We Left Egypt? is a hilarious and entertaining parody from the comedic minds of Dave Barry, Alan Zweibel, and Adam Mansbach. These award-winning comedy writers take you through every step of the Seder, from getting rid of all the chametz in your house by setting it on fire with a standard blowtorch (preferably outdoors), to breaking the middle matzah--that is, if you can find a piece that isn't already broken, to a hilariously absurd retelling of the Passover story featuring Pharaoh Schmuck, a burning bush that sounds kind of like Morgan Freeman, and the Promised Land which turned out not to be a land of milk and honey but rather one of rocks and venomous scorpions the size of Yorkshire terriers. Also included are useless commentary and thought-provoking discussion questions throughout such as: Is Manischewitz considered a plague? Publishing just in time for Passover, this book will be the perfect gift book from G-d that you'll want to share and laugh over with friends and family.

Toronto ranked just behind New York City in an annual report on the top 26 “Cities of Opportunity” by PricewaterhouseCoopers.
The report heralds Toronto’s feat as spectacular, given that the “small city” topped powerhouses like London, Paris and Hong Kong.
“New York might win because it’s really big and has been around a long time,” said Bill Sand, the firm’s director of thought leadership. “But if you really look at it, New York didn’t blow the other cities away.”
In fact, by the report’s grading process Toronto was only 31 points behind the Big Apple. This city was 23 points ahead of San Francisco, which finished third.
“Toronto is a really attractive place for smart people around the world to come,” said Sand. “It’s good to do business there, it’s open to different people . . . it’s a nice, welcoming city, with good education for my kids. That’s the message about Toronto from our report.”
The report looked at 10 specific categories that make a city great. This is how Toronto fared:
Intellectual capital and innovation: 2nd
This category looks at much we invest in smartness. Toronto’s future is bright: The city scored well on classroom size, literacy enrolment, and math and science skills. Only Stockholm did better.
How can we improve? The research performance of our universities was just a bit above average, according to the report. Ditto for our investment into research and development.
Health, Safety and Security: 2nd
Toronto’s relatively low crime rate scored big points in this category. The city’s end-of-life care and hospital performances are also tops.
How can Toronto do better? The city finished just one point behind Stockholm, so really, that isn’t bad.
Demographic and livability: 3rd
This has to do with our ability to attract and retain talent. Toronto had the highest ranking for quality of living and life satisfaction, and also received points for its low “natural disaster risk.”
However, we slipped to bottom of the pack in both commute time and “thermal comfort.” Stockholm again ranked first.
Lifestyle assets: 4th
This category attempts to quantify a city’s cultural vibrancy and impact. Toronto was given top marks for having one or more sports teams that are important to the city’s “self-definition.” We were middle of the pack in the “cultural vibrancy” category.
How can we improve? Our “skyline impact” is average, as is our proportion of green space and the number of hotel rooms in the city. New York had the edge.
Toronto tied with Mumbai for the 5th spot on the overall sustainability list. We were the top city for tackling air pollution, and rated high in waste recycling.
Toronto’s weaknesses? The city’s carbon footprint is like a size 15, and it’s just average when it comes using renewable energy. Berlin ranked 1st in the category.
Economic Clout: 7th
Traditional political and commercial powerhouse cities performed in this category, despite the financial crisis. It takes into account the number of Global 500 headquarters, shareholder protection and currency strength. Toronto was competitive but outmuscled by Singapore, Madrid, Hong Kong, New York, Paris, and London.
Toronto did poorly in attracting capital investment and attracting greenfield projects.
Toronto was one of the top-ranked cities for its cost of living, which might surprise some. It was also listed as the cheapest place for a business trip. Toronto was middle of the pack in terms of tax rate and cost of business occupancy.
Ease of doing business: 5th
The report says Toronto would be one of the easiest cities in the world to do business if it improved its ease of hiring and firing and Canada offered more flexibility on visa requirements.
Technology readiness: 11th
When it comes to quality of Toronto’s Internet services, there is much to be desired. We’re a bit better than Santiago and a little worse than Istanbul when it comes to broadband quality.
Toronto’s contributions to software, multimedia development and design also leave much to be desired, according to the report.
The city did, however, score highly when it comes to Internet access in schools. Future citizens will be masterful Tweeters.
Transportation and Infrastructure: 13th
While Toronto ranked first for the number of skyscrapers being built, it fared poorly in most other sections of this category.
Limited transit coverage, the cost of public transportation and an insufficient number of licensed taxis contributed to our low rating.
Cities near the top of the list have well-entrenched transit systems that have become part of the area’s cultural identity, such San Francisco’s cable cars, Chicago’s “L” train and the Metro in Paris.
Sure, second’s not bad — but what will it take for Toronto to top the list?
It may not be possible, Sand says, at least by the factors considered his firm’s report.
“It’s a big city of course,” Sand said of Toronto. “But it’s not this big bruiser city like London or New York.”
The size and history of a place like New York makes it hard for a city like Toronto to compete on the same scale. We don’t have the same museums, we don’t have Broadway, or Central park, or sea of yellow cabs. And likely, we never will.
Toronto comes in near the top of the report in affordable housing. It’s first for quality of living. It’s first for ilife satisfaction. It’s the kind of place quality employees want to be. It’s the kind of place where a business can thrive.
“What innovative, productive and hardworking people are doing is going to Toronto and Stockholm,” Sand said. “Sure, you might want to move to London or New York, but is that the way the world is going?

How to Fasten Cabinets To Concrete Surfaces
If you are considering installing your own cabinets and the area has concrete walls, there are a few things you need to know how to do correctly. There are special tools that make hanging wall cabinets on concrete an easier task. Particular fasteners will make the cabinet installation on concrete go smoother as well.
Video How To Secure Cupboards To Cement With Tapcons
I had a cupboard installer that worked for my company who used to use the regular #2 cabinet installation screws for hanging the boxes on the walls. He would use an eight inch wide concrete drill bit to pre-drill the holes for the screws to go into.
The Tapcon masonry screws can be purchased with the exact sized drill bit that is needed for pre-drilling for the wall anchor.
- Tip: If you are hanging your cupboards on a block wall, but there is drywall over the surface, the chances are really good that there are furring strips behind the drywall. If this is the case you will not need to attach the cabinets by screwing into the block. You can locate the one inch by two inch furring strips and secure the cabinetry with regular wood screws. Just make sure that the screws you are using are not too long.
I would highly recommend using a hammer drill when you are installing cabinets on masonry block walls. It’s just too much work trying to drill a pilot hole for the cement fasteners with a regular electric drill. I tried using a regular drill once and I burnt the tips off of about two or three masonry drill bits. Hammer drills are not cheap. If you can borrow one from a friend that is what you should do, unless you plan on using it in the future.
Steps for installing cupboards on concrete walls
1) Pre-drill the installation holes in the back of the cabinet that will secure them to the block walls. This should be done with a three sixteenths inch wide drill bit.
2) Set the cabinet in its exact position that it will be permanently installed in. If it is an upper cabinet you can use prop sticks to hold the cabinet up. Some people even screw a two-by-four stud, in a level position, to the wall to rest the upper wall cabinet on. A second person helping is suggested for safety purposes.
3) Using the three sixteenths inch holes in the back of the cupboards, as a guide, drill the holes in the concrete wall using the hammer drill and the correct sized drill bit for the Tapcon cabinet fasteners.
4) Sometimes I just start a small pilot hole with the hammer drill, take the cabinet down, drill the hole completely and then put the cabinet back into place and secure it to the masonry wall with the Tapcons.
- Tip: If the inside of the cabinets are white, I recently saw Tapcon screws in a white color that could be used for securing them to the walls. The screws are generally available in blue without any problem. I have painted the heads of the screws on certain occasions to make them match the interior of the cabinetry.
The main thing about installing cupboards on block, masonry or concrete walls is that you should never over tighten the screws. If you feel one slip out when you are screwing it into place, drill another hole and start over. I also am not shy when it comes to using plenty of screws, especially when I am securing upper-wall cabinets.

Please select an example below for an overlaid comparison of before and after...
Dr. Jacobs takes care with his African American patients to achieve an improved but still natural look.
Many patients are thrilled with the results of their rhinoplasty surgery and say they should have chosen to do it years ago.
Dr. Jacobs has performed many hundreds of nose jobs throughout his career as a board certified plastic surgeon.
This patient's results show the benefits of a skilled, light hand when it comes to rhinoplasty.
Rhinoplasty is one of the oldest plastic surgical procedures. For hundreds of years, people have wanted to change the look of their nose.
The nose is central to the face; if it's out of proportion it can have a huge impact on your looks.
African American patients sometimes opt to narrow the flare of their nostrils slightly.
Many men who choose to undergo rhinoplasty also look to resculpt a prominent nasal hump.
For men, it's important that the outcome of plastic surgery is a nose that still looks strong, but in better proportion to the rest of the face.
For this African American patient, Dr. Jacobs was able to narrow the nose without obliterating his racial identity.
In the hands of a skilled, experienced surgeon with an artist's eye, rhinoplasty can deliver results that delight the patient.
This is another case in which Dr. Jacobs took care to refine the nose without losing all traces of the patient's identity.

In combination, these will take perfect care of your mind, body and spirit, raising you to the pinnacle of wellness.

It was a dark night when I was sleeping in my hotel room. I heard a sudden whisper then aloud boom. I thought it was the maintanance fixing the old air condition but I was wronge. Plainly with my eyes I saw a mysterious object raise my bed sheets.|
It was heading for me and I couldn't do anything. But as it charged at me I crossed my hands over me and just like that it desapeared.

The night of July 8th on north Street in the old gaillards house there was sounds coming from the upstairs rooms. Footsteps walking around upstairs and in one of the rooms downstairs as well. soft voices whispering lightly.
at one point during the night around 11:30 or so an attack happened. My necklace was ripped off from my neck onto the floor. I have heard voices before and heard the footsteps before and saw things before in this house but that night was the first that anything attacked me for some unknown reason. .|

Initiatives for special education in the Philippines have begun as early as 1902. It has almost been a century and two decades past; yet until now, our country has no version of the famous IDEA or Individuals with Disabilities Education Act. However, there is a Senate Bill pushing for this need, Senate Bill 1298 espoused by Senator Joel Villanueva. In the absence of IDEA our special education system has no specific parameters for its practice. Sadly, there are no legislations mandating the other elemental resources that will be of great help to the teachers.
Despite a fundamental block missing, our Department of Education has recently made clear its desires for inclusive education. Inclusive education refers to having a special needs child fully participate in a regular school. We also have a Senate Bill waiting to be a law on inclusive education, Senate Bill 996 espoused by Senator Win Gathchalian.
Most school teachers from both the private and publics schools have expressed apprehension on their readiness to deal with the inclusion program. They are expressing the lack of proficient training for the task. Regular classroom teachers are already anticipating the pressure and difficulty of handling their classrooms. They are overwhelmed as early as now.
Had we have an IDEA, our special education needs children will have a vast pool of professionals and proper assessment available to them. Diagnosis alone will not truly be enough. It is best to have an assessment for the appropriate developmental concern of each child. Likewise, for their educational need, assessment from a professional who is also familiar with instruction and curriculum will be a lot of help. With this detailed educational assessment, our regular classroom teachers handling special needs children will have better information and picture of the child’s present level of performance.

I originally had concerns having a puppy travel across the country via the airlines. Bar H explained the entire process which was reassuring. They have done a wonderful job raising corgi pups and preparing the new owners with all the info they need. The communication was great during the buying process as well. They were quick to call, text and email when I had questions. Bar H farms holds themselves to the highest standards when it comes to their puppies and potential new puppy owners should consider Bar H farms as their first choice for a breeder.
Our little guy has been an absolute joy. He is healthy, smart, and super handsome. People stop us wherever we go and comment on how cute he is. Our family would recommend Bar H Farm to anyone looking for a sweet corgi pup, they really love their babies!

One of the things that I often hear from visitors coming to São Paulo is that the city is a bit overwhelming - and that there is not a lot of information about places to go and things to do in English.
There are some good new publications that are geared for that audience, such as the Total São Paulo guide and Time Out São Paulo, which was launched just over a year ago, as well as other blogs like this. But we need more!
So I have decided to do my bit and write a short review in English about most places I go to. These places are listed under a custom map which anyone can access and contribute.

Brussels Sprouts with Horseradish Sauce
1 pound fresh Brussels sprouts, trimmed and quartered (or halved if small)
HOW TO TRIM BRUSSELS SPROUTS: Wash the sprouts under running water. Slice off the stem end about 1/4 way into the sprout, then remove the outer leaves. Check to see that the remaining sprout is completely clean and the leaves unblemished, if not wash again and remove another layer of outer leaves. Quarter (or halve, if small) the sprouts, cutting right through the core. This step can be done several hours, even a day before. It's the only redeeming feature about cleaning Brussels sprouts!
1/2 cup chicken or vegetable broth Salt
1/2 cup sour cream 1 tablespoon horseradish
In a skillet large enough to mostly keep the sprouts in a single layer (and that can be covered), add the sprouts and chicken broth. Toss to sprouts with liquid. Cover and bring to a boil (hard to see, I know) and then cook for 3 minutes. Uncover and carefully cook til liquid boils off and Brussels sprouts are done. Season with salt to taste. Mix sour cream and horseradish together in a small bowl, then turn into the Brussels sprouts, turning gently so not to tear apart them apart. Let warm through. Transfer to a warm (preferably, to hold the heat a bit better) serving dish, season with pepper and serve.
