If a history is a guide, the stock market is likely to see just small gains in the months following any debt ceiling increase.
Politicians are haggling over the details, but the markets are convinced a deal to raise the debt ceiling will come at the last possible minute, along with some sort of deficit reduction plan.
"We still believe the discord represents high drama, and low risk, but acknowledge that the thought of the unthinkable may cause investors to do the unfortunate by selling stock and putting additional pressure on equity prices," writes Sam Stovall, chief investment strategist at Standard & Poor's Equity Research.
Stocks fell Monday but were off their lows in late morning. The Dow was off by double digits after an earlier triple-digit loss.
Stovall notes that Congress raised the debt ceiling 53 times since President Nixon took office in 1969. In the one-month period and three-month period following these moves, the Standard & Poor's 500 rose by less than it typically did in one- or three-month periods over the same years. The S&P rose a median 0.6 percent in the month after the debt ceiling was raised, compared to a median gain of 0.9 percent, he wrote.
Three months later, the market saw a median gain of 0.9 percent, compared to a median 2.2 percent increase for all quarters going back to 1969.
"This could be a perfect example of fooled by randomness," Stovall said in an interview. "There's no guarantee that this is not a correlation without causation...such as the 'Super Bowl theory'" that links the National Football League championship game with stock market performance.

Last month, the LA No More Jails Coalition and our allies won a 45-day suspension of the $2 billion jail construction plan. Due to our grassroots organizing efforts, the Board of Supervisors passed a motion to adequately assess alternatives to jail capacity before moving forward with jail expansion projects in the county. Check out KPCC’s article here.
Now, the Los Angeles Sheriff’s Department is trying to propose a new jail plan and will seek an additional $80 million of state funding to expand existing jails in the county. This is why we must keep the pressure on. On Tuesday, July 14 we expect that the sheriff’s department will seek approval from the board. Please save the date and join us to demand #nomorejails.
We know that Los Angeles needs holistic, effective, accessible and well-coordinated mental and physical health care, not more cages.
To learn more about the work happening in Los Angeles join us on Saturday, July 11. Community+County Health Empowerment (C+CHE) is hosting a community gathering and discussion about the growing movement away from jails and policing and towards the health and sustainability of our communities.
When: Saturday, July 11th, 2:00 – 5:00pm
Where: Los Angeles LGBT Center (1125 N. McCadden Place Room 111, LA 90038)
Come share your experiences and envision a better, stronger Los Angeles for everyone.

Readers’ Review on A Stolen Life PDF
Wow!! Thanks to Kindle, I was able to download the book at about one in the morning, and it’s now seven in the morning. I have not read a book in one sitting, or in one night for years!
People who saw the ABC interview with Diane Sawyer saw how warm and lovely this young lady is, and her book is like the interview but a hundred times warmer and more personal.
Jaycee’s story is refreshing in that it’s written by her, and not from a co-author. Much of the book are pages and pages taken from the actual journal entries she wrote while in her backyard prison. You can tell that her journal entries read in much same way as the rest of the book, so in a sense, the entire book is a continuation of her journaling and her ongoing mission in life to help others. For example, it’s hard to tell when you’re reading from her old journal entries from her more current writings of when she’s authoring this book. It’s really all one voice, and you definitely get a feel for how her voice resonates through.
– Mark Zander
The first thing you need to know about Jaycee Dugard’s book, is it is indeed a very difficult thing to read. It is a beautifully written, pull no punches account of the 18 years she spent in captivity with a very sick man, Phillip Garrido.
In a note from the author at the beginning of the book, Dugard explains that she wrote the book to attempt to convey the overwhelming confusion she endured during her years in captivity and to begin to unravel the damage that was done to she and her family. She chronicles her experience with brutal honesty. She writes about missing her mother and worrying that she will never see her again. Her dependence upon her kidnapper grows the more he isolates her from the world. For long periods of time he was the only other human being that she saw.
– Amelia Williams
A few reviews claimed the book was repetitive, there are times that’s true but instead of thinking of that negatively and bashing Jaycee’s writing abilities, I see it as a recovering woman trying to piece together a story of 18 years of captivity. A story in which people begged and pried into her privacy just to get. This book also aided in her healing she wanted to write in her own words she explains why if you read the preface!!!!
This book was a hard read but an excellent insight on Jaycee’s perseverance, strength and her unbelievable ability to survive and overcome a horrific event. I never went into reading this book thinking it would contain superior grammar and writing style. I applaud her for sharing her story. (She also isn’t a bad writer) I recommend this book for sure!
– H. Pryor

On the message complexity of binary Byzantine Agreement under crash failures
Eugene S. Amdur, Samuel M. Weber and Vassos Hadzilacos
The binary Byzantine Agreement problem requires $n-1$ receivers to agree on the binary value broadcast by a sender even when some of these $n$ processes may be faulty. We investigate the message complexity of protocols that solve this problem in the case of crash failures. In particular, we derive matching upper and lower bounds on the total, worst and average case number of messages needed in the failure-free executions of such protocols. More specifically, we prove that any protocol that tolerates up to $t$ faulty processes requires a total of at least $n+t-1$ messages in its failure-free executions --- and, therefore, at least $\lceil (n+t-1)/2\rceil$ messages in the worst case and $\min(P_0,P_1)\cdot(n+t-1)$ messages in the average case, where $P_v$ is the probability that the value of the bit that the sender wants to broadcast is $v$. We also give protocols that solve the problem using only the minimum number of messages for these three complexity measures. These protocols can be implemented by using 1-bit messages. Since a lower bound on the number of messages is also a lower bound on the number of message bits, this means that the above tight bounds on the number of messages are also tight bounds on the number of message bits.

After five weeks of HARD work, it’s finally REVEAL day! My moody modern dining room reveal for the One Room Challenge is here, you guys!
Who knew that I would sign up for the One Room Challenge again? I was debating for a long time if I should sit it out or just go for it…? Yeah! I was kind of itching to see some changes in the dining room for a long time, but it was kind of also just a busy time around here. I have been changing things around in the dining room ever since we moved here (10 years ago), but one thing I have been putting off! Removing the chair rail!!! Ghaw! I hated it!
So this time I went in for the challenge with some easy plans and I thought it would be a piece of cake to redo this room. But you know how things usually are. Things get out of control, and I always end up working a LOT harder ( hence my last minute DIY ideas lol!) than I imagine in my little head at the design planning stage haha.
But like always… I say it was SO worth all the work again.
I am freaking loving the space we created. WE! Yes! My handy hubby is always here to help. God bless him for staying married with this crazy for so long and giving me a hand with everything I need help with. 🙂 In the end, we are a perfect team together. We always make everything work!!!
Okay! So let’s go back in memory lane for a sec.
This was the mood board I created for this space. I did a good job on bringing this vision to life, I think!
And this was before of my dining room.
It looked really nice, but I wanted to get rid of unneeded things. Like that buffet, we DIYed many years ago! We just didn’t use it at all, and I felt like it took off so much space in here.
I went for a change and I am so glad I did!
So let me introduce you to this moody modern dining room, guys!
A little recap of what we did during the 5 weeks:
We removed the chair rails – WEEK two!
Painted the tray veiling- WEEK three!
We DIYed that awesome BAR wall- WEEK four!
Mural went up – WEEK five!
I still owe you guys for the tutorial on how we DIY ed that BAR WALL. I just could not get to it yet.
I truly love everything we added to this room. The wall mural from A New Wall is absolutely my favorite in here! This Foggy Hills Mural was an excellent choice for this space! What do you think?
And I wanted to see it framed, as a significant art piece! And it turned out exactly how I envisioned it!
I will share a tutorial on how we framed the mural as well. Stay tuned!
Let’s talk about that fantastic rug, guys! I’ve been eyeing Loloi Rugs for a long time, and I was super excited to collaborate with Loloi Rugs for this makeover. I fell in love with the gorgeous Lay Spice Marine over and over again. Such beauty!
I select my pieces carefully when I design.
I wanted a cool light fixture for this room, and I think I found it! I found this piece over at SAZERAC STITCHES.
Absolut perfect light fixture for this moody room. The size and shape…everything is on point!
And how do you like my super sexy captain chair? OMG! I can not find words! I found this gem at Eclectic Goods. I was happy to collaborate with this fantastic company to showcase these Jean Rattan chairs my space.
I ended up with a few easy DIY projects last minute…
This concrete planter was born two days ago, and due to not finding the perfect table, I ended up painting my old table black. I think it looks fantastic.:-) You always needs plants and greens, right? In this how to decorate with large plants in a small space post you can learn all the basics on decorating with plants.
Oh, guys! I am so much in love with this room, and I am happy the house is back to its normal state.
I think I am ready for my Whiskey Coke haha!
Oh, and I am loving that my house getting so cohesive too..LOOK AT THIS VIEW 🙂
PIN THIS IMAGE FOR LATER!
What do you think? Do you love or don’t like this moody space?
What’s your favorite DIY cause we had a few good ones!:)
Thanks for following along and thanks for checking in to see the reveal!

I think a Universal Basic Income(UBI), would be ideal for a number of reasons:
1) It would make the welfare system more efficient if we replaced the current one with UBI. Think about it, a UBI is given to every citizen 18 or older, no questions asked. That means there's much less need for government bureaucrats to determine if someone qualifies for welfare since basically everyone would, or just all citizens would depending on if one wants citizenship to be a condition to receive.
2) It's not as expensive as people first think, given my points in number 1, that means we aren't paying for the salaries of those aforementioned bureaucrats, as many of those jobs would no longer exist. Plus, much of the money currently being spent on current welfare systems could easily be transferred to help pay for a UBI. That said, I'd also want to decrease spending in other areas too, of course, to make up any other potential difference that would add to the deficit.
3) I don't think it discourages people from working as people first think. The current welfare system discourages people more from working. Ever heard of the welfare cliff? Well, if not, there are a few of them. If someone is earning above X dollars per year, they will no longer qualify for certain welfare programs, so in many ways, they're better off by making sure their income is like $100 less than that amount since they get more income overall by doing that. So, the solution is to work less or not at all in order to keep qualifying. In a UBI, everyone gets it no matter what, so people no longer have this incentive, and there's no welfare cliff. Plus, a UBI would cover merely the cost of living. I don't think people want to merely live in today's society. It doesn't make sense to argue that people would suddenly stop going after their aspirations and just live off of UBI, going through the motions of life while not accomplishing any purpose they feel they need. I'm pretty positive most people have a career they want to be in and want to work. At the very least, they have goals which require working, i.e accumulation of material wealth, in some cases helping others may require official work, as in the case of nurses and such, etc.
Now, I'm leaving it at this for now, but I'll likely provide more arguments later with sources and such.
Do you think a Universal basic income would be beneficial to implement?
"Nobody realizes that some people expend tremendous energy merely to be normal."

Yesterday, on Thursday 10th of October, World Mental Health Day, Argyll and Bute MSP Michael Russell published the analysis report from his recent Mental Health Survey for Argyll and Bute.
This follows on from the report being discussed and explored at a meeting with Scottish Government Cabinet Secretary for Health and Sport Jeane Freeman and a number of local representatives from Mental Health services.
Commenting, Michael Russell MSP said:
“I am pleased to present my Analysis Report of the Mental Health in Argyll and Bute survey, especially as it is World Mental Health Day.
This was an instrumental part of our meeting with Jeane Freeman last week which lead to a mutual feeling that the concern expressed about mental health services in Argyll and Bute has to be heard and ensuring the best possible support is available is now the objective of all involved.
It is crucial that mental health is given the same attitude and care as physical health and as it is a day of awareness it is a great opportunity to reflect on this.”

Thingsdata has a LoRa sensor in its portfolio specially designed for a long battery life. The functionality and design have been kept as minimalist as possible, so that the long battery life can be guaranteed. The settings are pre-configured for our back-end and the KPN LoRa network. Geo-location data is generated by the network.
Thanks to bluetooth and the piezo buzzer, it is possible to find assets right down to the last meters. The sensor is suitable for many usage situations. Just to name a few examples: asset tracking, alarm sensor, proximity security detection, ambiance sensor and localization (indoor and outdoor).
LoRa sensor, how does it work?
The sensors include: temperature, humidity, 9-axis accelerometer, compass, gyroscope, barometer, light sensor, tilt sensor, magnetometer and location based on LoRa triangulation. We can combine the features of these sensors to fit any desired project.
In static position, the LoRa sensor sends an uplink (heartbeat) every 60 minutes. When motion or vibration is detected, an uplink is triggered with an ‘in trip’ flag. During continuous motion, the device sends an uplink every 15 minutes. The KPN LoRa network server calculates the position of the device by triangulation of the received signal. Within our portal we visualize this data to show the locations and movement history.
In addition, you can set alerts and alarms for geofences and movements, making the LoRa sensor an excellent and cost-effective LoRa sensor. The water- & dust-proof housing provides protection in all situations. The status and connection of the sensor are communicated via two LED lights. Thanks to the innovative internal antenna, no additional external parts are required. The QR code on the label can be used to activate the device and add it to your administration.
For more information, you can contact us via telephone number 085-0443500 or by mail to firstname.lastname@example.org.

University is getting pretty tense at the moment so I haven't been able to upload as much as I want to in the past few weeks, however I can't leave you guys hanging without any new work, can I now?? Above is my first pass at creating some fanatics/zealots/mutations for the children of odin, if it looks weird and disturbing to you then I have succeeded in what I was trying to achieve! I have some even weirder head designs too but I haven't yet finished them.
I was trying something a little different with these guys technically, instead of my usual render everything to death, I attempted to try and be a bit more loose with my brush strokes and suggest things rather than painting everything out. It was a fun little experiment and I certainly finished these a lot quicker than previous piece of work. Till next time.


Following 200-megapixel sensor ISOCELL HP1 , Samsung introduced an image sensor with 50-megapixel resolution (8160 x 6144 dots). The second novelty is called ISOCELL GN5.
What are the benefits?
The sensor will replace the ISOCELL GN2 model on the market. The optical format of the sensor has been reduced from 1/1.12" to 1/1.56". The main feature of Samsung ISOCELL GN5 manufacturer positions the support for auto focus Dual Pixel Pro, which responds to fast-moving objects and works well in low light conditions.
The sensor supports not only pixel aggregation, but also upscaling. Thanks to the technology of machine learning 50-megapixel image sensor is capable of delivering images of 100 megapixels. And in low light conditions, 4-in-1 binning kicks in. The output is 12.5MP photos with low digital noise.
Samsung ISOCELL GN5 can record 8K ULTRA HD video at 30 FPS. There is also support for 4K UHD, but at 240 FPS.
When to expect?
Samsung said that shipments of the new 50-megapixel sensors have already started. Therefore, the first smartphones with cameras based on Samsung ISOCELL GN5 may appear as soon as possible.


Eliminated from darts’ blue riband event, the PDC World Championship, at the second round stage last time out, Phil Taylor was considered in some quarters to a fading force but ‘the Power’ has enjoyed a fruitful 2012, landing three majors and also clinching victory in nine tour events so reports of his demise are surely a touch premature.
Indeed, he’s the favourite to come out on top at Alexandra Palace and fresh from his Players Championship triumph in Minehead, Taylor is difficult to oppose at 2/1 with Coral.
Rising star Michael Van Gerwen is a 5/1 shot at Sportingbet and given his form he has to be respected. The young Dutchman is also 11/2 via Skybet to meet Taylor in the final and that’s a showdown many pundits are hoping to see in North London while the same firm quote Van Gerwen at a tasty 11/4 in the betting without Taylor.
Next in the betting is defending champion Adrian Lewis, a 12/1 shot courtesy of Betfred, Boylesports post 16/1 against Suimon Whitlock and bet365 offer 18/1 about Scot Gary Anderson emerging victorious.
However, a livelier runner is arguably Raymond van Barneveld, at 20/1 (Skybet). Admittedly ‘Barney’ is in Taylor’s half of the draw but he has returned to form of late, winning the Grand Slam of Darts and performing like his old self, he has the ability to secure a sixth world title, especially if ‘the Power’ is upset again.

Shia LaBeouf is currently trending online after being seen wearing a paper bag on his head. He went viral on social media platforms including Facebook and Twitter after his appearance on the red carpet event for “Nymphomanic.” Aside from that, Shia LaBeouf was also seen headbutting a London bar patron and chasing a homeless man in “Cabaret.”
A report from CinemaBlend said that the videos showing an angry Shia LaBeouf is by far the safest for the eyes of children. He was seen shouting “Just do it!” in classic movies not including the latest clip he has uploaded where he stood in front of a green screen.
The video was actually for a segment wherein he was uttering some intense yet motivational statements. It was shot in Central Saint Martin’s art school in London and was made publicly available. This was made possible through a Creative Commons Non-commercial license. Meanwhile, the videos starring Shia LaBeouf has also created some great spoofs, continued CinemaBlend.
On the other hand, The Hollywood Reporter has compiled some of the best scenes for public amusement. The video showed “Shiawalker” in “Star Wars” while he was shouting at Luke to get his X-Wing away from the swamp. We really think this is pure gold especially when Shia LaBeouf had his rat tail on like Hayden Christensen.
We can also see Shia’s take on the canceled cameo role in “The Avengers” which turned out that the scene could have been more hilarious if LaBeouf played it instead of Mark Ruffalo. Leroy Prompakdee also cut a scene from “Se7en” wherein the trending LaBeouf shout, “Just Do It!” was seen until Taylor finally shot Kevin Spacey’s John Doe.
Wait! That’s not the end of it. LaBeouf also had a take on “TED Talks,” the home shopping network ad wherein he played as the star and of course, that one annoying friend who suddenly comes out from nowhere.

Labour will today attempt to ramp up pressure on the coalition by calling on Liberal Democrats to join them in condemning proposals to reintroduce O-levels and CSEs as “consigning young people to the scrapheap”.
The party will use an opposition day debate in the Commons to claim Education Secretary Michael Gove's plans would be a “damaging leap backwards”.
Details were leaked last week of proposals for pupils to take O-levels in traditional subjects such as English, maths, science and the humanities by 2016 while less able pupils would take old-style CSE qualifications.
But the move exposed deep divisions within the coalition. Lib Dem sources suggested they were “very, very hostile” to something that would create a two-tier system while Deputy Prime Minister Nick Clegg said he and Prime Minister David Cameron knew nothing about it.
Shadow education secretary Stephen Twigg will urge Lib Dems to back Labour in the non-binding vote.
Mr Twigg said: “Michael Gove's plans to bring back the CSE are a cap on aspiration for young people.
“Re-introducing a two-tier system in secondary education, which was abolished by Margaret Thatcher in the 1980s, would be damaging leap backwards.”
He added that Labour will today “lead a debate in Parliament to shed light on the Education Secretary's plans and to make the case for reforming the secondary system for all children, not just the few.
“Nick Clegg has said that his party will not support a two-tier system that consigns young people to the scrapheap.
“Labour is calling on the Liberal Democrats to join us and vote against plans for a reintroduction of this regressive system in the House of Commons.”
Labour decided to switch the subject of their debate from health to education following the backlash after the plans emerged.
It comes after the party secured an urgent question on the plans last week. Mr Gove told MPs then that a two-tier system already exists and radical changes need to be made to make exams tougher and ensure the UK keeps up with other nations.
He added: “While there were undoubtedly improvements in our schools and by our teachers over the course of the last 20 years, those improvements were not sufficient to ensure that we kept pace with other jurisdictions.”
Any shake-up of the exam system would only apply to schools in England.

ANN/THE STAR – When you think of perfume, you think about the sweet-smelling aroma of flowers or fruits – and not whales. That said, is it true that an ingredient used in some perfumes began in the body of one of the largest denizens of the deep?
Yes, this is true as some perfumes contain ambergris – an intestinal slurry that comes from the guts of sperm whales.
This substance appears in sperm whales when they consume squid, octopus and cuttlefish, all of which have small hard beaks. These beaks are usually vomited, but some can end up in the lining of the whale’s guts and and the bile duct of the sperm whale secretes a waxy substance to encase the beaks and protect the gut from irritation.
Over time, the wax and the encased beaks harden into a lump called ambergris and it is then passed out along with the whale’s faecal matter or vomit. Aside from this, there have been occasions where ambergris is found in the abdomen of a dead whale.
Once out of the whale, ambergris is less dense than seawater – this means that it then floats on the surface of the sea for years before it lands up on a shoreline.
During this time, the ‘fresh’ ambergris is baked under the sun, oxidised by the salty water and eroded by the waves. This process transforms the black waxy solid into grey fragrant ambergris.
It is this substance that is highly valued by perfume makers, as it has a strong fixative quality which allows the fragrance to last longer when applied. And historically, before being used as part of an ingredient for perfume, the substance was used for other things such as incense by the ancient Egyptians or even medication to cure headaches, colds, and epilepsy by Europeans in the Middle Ages.
However, it has been mostly replaced in modern perfume making by synthetic chemicals like ambroxide. At the end of the day, this piece of information might amaze and help you appreciate the creations of perfume makers.

Compassionate inquiry is an inquiry method to help people connect to the truth within themselves in the present moment. This technique allows people to become free from self-generated suffering as well as gain insight, clarity, and choice in their behavior.
Addiction, anxiety, depression, and ADHD can be traced to childhood trauma and a sense of disconnect from yourself. Inner child work is very effective in healing the wounded child and to completely integrate all parts of yourself.
Corona virus has changed each of our lives in different ways. But it impacts all of us. We are more connected, but also more alone. Technology can bring us together emotionally as we reach out to loved ones, friends, and important people who we have not spoken with in a long time.
With video platforms such as Zoom, there is hope for an increase in social interaction. Some of my clients were hesitant to try video sessions or phone sessions for their therapy/counseling sessions. They have been pleasantly surprised with the wonderful connection that we can have through a… Continue reading
It’s not easy to change the way you look at goal attainment, but moving away from a “destination mindset” can boost your odds of success.
By Rebecca Muller, Assistant Editor at Thrive Global
It’s incredibly gratifying to achieve a goal you’ve set for yourself, but the real challenge often begins after you hit your target, when you have to maintain the practices you have begun in order to see prolonged success. According to a new Stanford study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, individuals are more… Continue reading
According to Dr. Gary Chapman, author of the Five Love Languages Series, we all speak with one of five love languages: quality time, physical touch, gift giving, acts of service, and words of affirmation.
For example, your partner may reflect his love through physical touch when you’re craving quality time. Or, you may shower your significant other with gifts while he or she is in need of words of affirmation.
In my practice, I see couples that are struggling in a variety of ways to connect and communicate. This can range from feeling disconnected, not spending enough creative… Continue reading
Many people are experiencing anxiety which can be experienced as restlessness, worry, insomnia and/or somatic symptoms such as heart palpitations, abdominal tightness and headaches. Stress is a word used often by people to describe anxiety.
There are many ways to cope with and reduce symptoms of anxiety with deep breathing and guided meditation ( if you can slow your mind down enough to participate). Massage can also relieve muscle tension that many times accompanies anxiety. Cognitive Restructuring is also an effective method to reduce anxiety. The concept is if you become aware of your negative thought patterns and change them… Continue reading

I’d be ever so grateful if you’d consider donating to my online fundraiser to raise $5,000 to build a safe and simple house for a family in need in Haiti. My family already donated, so now its up to friends and strangers to get us to the goal. (Thanks in advance!)
I only had room for a few photos in the article. So here are a few more postcards from my Christmas in Haiti.
For my friend Susan, who went home to God far too early in life.
When I showed up in nunland, you became my first friend. You stayed close during my challenging novitiate, even though you were 3,000 miles away. Your promise that you’d read my emails and not tell anyone what I wrote (and perhaps most importantly, not try to fix anything) may have saved me.
I returned to Seattle when you left for El Salvador, so our friendship continued by email and yummy Thai or Indian or Japanese or Chinese food when you were home. Then you came home and I went to Chicago first, then New Jersey. The tradition transferred, and it was when I was home that we had our dinner dates.
When I think back to our friendship, it’s those meals that stand out. Not the food, but our delicious conversations. Your listening ear. Your laugh. The fact that you always called me on my bullshit. That time when you listened to me vent, ad nauseum, about whatever it was. And then, when we had paid the check, politely reminded me that friendships were mutual, and when was I going to ask about you.
Lesson learned. An important one, that I am grateful for.
So much to be grateful for really.
Tonight at your vigil service, my memories were mirrored in what others shared. Your friend from high school. Another stranger who became a friend. Coworkers. Your friend’s teenage daughter. (I was waiting for the dog catcher or waste management professional to go to the mic.) We all felt loved and known by you.
You were a light for others. One that shone brightly if but only for a time in my own life. An important time.
I am remembering my dear friend Sister Kieran this morning who went home to God over the weekend.
Kieran was herself fond of the early morning hours. She lived for many years at St. Mary-on-the-Lake, our main west coast community on the shores of Lake Washington. When she was more able, she’d be the one to fetch the morning papers from up the hill, to make the proper Irish oatmeal, and keep you company in the dining room. I remember when she was in the hospital a few years ago, there was a long list of all the tasks she normally took care of that needed to be done by a whole host of others while she recovered.
Sister Kieran brought life just by her presence. She was one of the first sisters to welcome me to community. I mean that in more than one way. She was a constant presence at St. Mary’s whenever I visited. She had a twinkle in her eye and a smile on her face. She also made you feel accepted just as you were. She made me feel at home and wanted and part of the CSJP family from the very beginning.
Sister Kieran was also, as the title says, a fiesty and faithful friend. She’d be the first to tell you if your homily reflection was a bit on the long side. She loved to tell stories, and my favorite was when she’d preference a story about me by saying, “Remember when you were a young sister and you …”. As I was remembering Kieran this morning, I thought of this picture, which was taken at a recent assembly. This is Kieran, alive and engaged and in action. No doubt she is alive and engaged and in action in heaven, catching up with loved ones and keeping a keen eye on all the goings on in this world as we prepare to celebrate her life.
Thank you Kieran for being my friend, for your faithful witness and your fiesty spirit. I will miss you but am better for having known and loved you, even if just for a time.
Sister Marie Paula went home to her loving God yesterday, just a little more than a month shy of reaching 98 years of age. She was one of the first CSJP Sisters I met in the east on a visit I made to check out the lay of the land before I entered the novitiate.
I will never forget her delight at meeting one of the “postulants from the west.” I can still picture that first encounter in my mind’s eye. It was in the chapel of Villa Marie Claire, where she was living and which is now used as a hospice. She told me that she had been praying for me. This is not an unusual statement, given the context, but then she pulled a picture out of her pocket. It was a picture of me with the other candidates who were set to enter the novitiate. She was carrying us in her pocket as she prayed for us, literally holding us in prayer.
A few weeks ago I had a good visit with her in her room in the infirmary. She was now on hospice herself at the end of a life of prayer and loving service. I told her this story, and that I felt like she had literally prayed me into the congregation. I then told her that when she got to the other side, she had a lot of work to do praying for the new sisters who have not yet come. They needed her prayers too. She got very animated and talked about the joy of a life lived in community serving the Lord. She was alive right up until the end with the love of God and love for our CSJP community.
I love this picture of Sister Marie Paula. It was taken in March at our community assembly which was focused on future oriented conversations about mission. There she is, leaning in, actively listening. For me it is a perfect portrait of an amazing, authentic, and animated woman of peace.
We will say goodbye to Sister Marie Paula this week. We will celebrate her life and remember the gift she was to our community, church, and world. I have no doubt that she will be leaning in from her new home, listening to all that is going on, and praying fervently for our community, our mission of peace, and the sisters yet to to come.

This vid was recommended by Nicky Gabriel on Crack Van on June 28, 2010: "(Why this vid kicks ass:) Why? As shfan said – it’s a beautiful love story. This fanvid shows how much they love each other and that they were and always are there for each other. And I like that the scene selection is exactly as it should be to work well with the lyrics. But most of all I like that there are whole sections dedicated to separate episodes. It’s not easy to do, but here it’s done very well. And of course this song is just beautiful."

Leaked: Secret testimony of US private in WikiLeaks case
A group pressing for more open government flouted a military ban to release a secretly-recorded audio of testimony by US Army private Bradley Manning, accused of leaking war files.Updated: Mar 12, 2013 21:28 IST
A group pressing for more open government on Tuesday flouted a military ban to release a secretly-recorded audio of testimony by US Army private Bradley Manning, accused of leaking war files.
It marks the first time since Manning was arrested in May 2010 that the world has heard his voice as he awaits trial on 22 charges of giving classified material on the Iraq and Afghanistan wars to the WikiLeaks whistle-blower website.
Reporters covering a series of pre-trial hearings being held at a military tribunal at Fort Meade in Maryland have been explicitly barred from making any video or audio recordings or from taking photographs of Manning.
"We hope this recording will shed light on one of the most secret court trials in recent history," the Freedom of Press Foundation (FPF) said in a statement, as it published the audio-file on its website.
"We wish to make sure that the voice of this generation's most prolific whistle-blower can be heard - literally - by the world."
The tape was made during a nearly hour-long statement last month, when Manning in a firm and assured voice said he leaked the files on the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan to WikiLeaks in order to start a "public debate."
When he deployed to Iraq he found himself alienated from his comrades and at odds with an army that "seemed not to value human life", he told the hearing.
The 25-year-old, who is being held in military custody pending trial, said he would plead guilty to 10 of the less serious of the 22 charges against him, but would deny aiding America's enemies, a crime which carries a life sentence.
The court has agreed to accept his plea on the lesser allegations - under which Manning faces 20 years in military custody.
"Extreme secrecy in our courts, just like in our government's policies and our politics, is an anathema to democracy," the FPF said.
"Whether military or civilian, this type of closed-door legal process impairs the public's right to know and journalist's ability to report on matters of deep public concern.
"The courtrooms of America should be open to the public so they can see and hear what is being done in their name."

After eating this meal I decided that we don’t eat enough prosciutto in this house. I love it, especially in my dad’s famous stuffed Italian peppers. But I always forget about it at the grocery store, and I rarely pick it up unless a recipe calls for it. In this dish, the salty bits of dry-cured ham pair nicely with sweet, tender asparagus, and soft, smoky mozzarella cheese. Oh, and are you all aware of the magic that is pasta cooking water? Using just a bit of the starchy liquid can pull together a wonderfully silky sauce without it being at all watery. Every time I use this method , I’m reminded of the satisfaction I feel when a vinaigrette finally emulsifies and when a mess of chopped chocolate and cream turns into a velvety, shiny bowl of chocolate ganache. And in this case, cooking the pasta and the sauce together for a minute or so further infuses the flavors into the ziti making every bite worth it.
The whole time I was cooking this meal I kept checking my cookbook to make sure I hadn’t forgotten a step. It took so little time and effort that I couldn’t believe we were going to be able to sit down for dinner in under thirty minutes. I have happily added this recipe to my list of “we need dinner in a flash and we don’t want to do a lot of dishes” weeknight dinners. Hmmm, those Italians could be onto something.
Ziti with Asparagus, Smoked Mozzarella, and Prosciutto
Source: Everyday Italian, Giada De Laurentiis
8 ounces dried ziti
1 pound asparagus, washed, trimmed, and cut diagonally into 1-inch pieces
2 Tablespoons olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more to taste
3 ounces smoked mozzarella, diced
3 ounces thinly sliced prosciutto, cut into strips
3 Tablespoons thinly sliced fresh basil
Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the ziti and cook for five minutes, stirring often. Add the asparagus to the same pot, and cook until the pasta is al dente and the asparagus is crisp-tender, about two more minutes. Reserve 1/2 cup of the cooking liquid, and drain the pasta and asparagus.
In a large skillet, heat the olive oil over medium heat. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about 20 seconds. Add the pasta, asparagus, 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper, and 1/2 cup of reserved cooking liquid, and toss to coat. Note: the recipe recommended using a whole cup of cooking liquid. I tried half a cup first and was happy with the consistency, so I didn’t end up using the full cup. Remove the skillet from the heat. Add the mozzarella, prosciutto, and basil and combine. Taste for seasonings and add more salt and pepper if desired. Since prosciutto is delightfully salty on its own, I found it unnecessary to add any more salt.
