The death of an old horse named Buttercup (aka Kayla) marked the end of an era in which horses grazed in the Pixie Trail area of Homestead Valley. She succumbed during a 36-hour storm that blew in Sunday night, December 10, 1995. It produced 14 inches of rain with winds up to 90 miles per hour. Her body was about 30 ft. down the hill below Pixie Trail, her legs pointing up the hill. She had likely been blown down and unable to get up. In the 1950's there was a horse ring at the west end of Pixie Trail and a stable for rental horses at the east end on Edgewood Ave. run by Peggy Adams. Her students would ride on Pixie Trail to the horse ring for instructions and competitions. The trails and horse ring were on Eric Krag's Rancho del Topé. He granted public access, and allowed horses to graze there. The number of horses in Peggy's stable declined in the 1970s. In 1975, the Homestead Valley Land Trust purchased Rancho del Topé for open space. The purchase agreement specified that remaining horses could continue to graze on the land until they died. Buttercup lived for 20 more years.

Pace e Bene's John Dear and Ken Butigan — who teaches in the Peace, Justice and Conflict Studies Program at DePaul University — joined participants from nations around the world, including Mexico, Venezuela, Costa Rica, Colombia, Honduras, Brazil, Canada, the United States, Uganda, Philippines, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Fiji, South Sudan, Kenya, Nigeria, Ethiopia, Palestine, the United Kingdom, France and Italy. Peacemakers, theologians, archbishops, bishops, educators and those in pastoral ministry attended this historic assembly. In addition, the Dicastery's Prefect Cardinal Peter Turkson (Ghana) was present, as was Cardinal Joseph Tobin (Newark, New Jersey, USA).
"Our conversations on nonviolence and peace filled our hearts and minds with a consideration of the dignity of each person - young people, women and men, people who are impoverished, citizens and leaders," said Mons. Bruno Marie Duffé, Secretary of the Dicastery. "Nonviolence and peace call us to a conversion to receive and to give, to gather and to hope."
"Pax Christi International deeply appreciates the support and participation of the Dicastery in this workshop, which has been a significant and positive step in the work of the Catholic Nonviolence Initiative," said Marie Dennis, Co-president of Pax Christi International. "We are touched by the interventions from all the participants, who reiterated the importance of nonviolence rooted in respect, patience and spiritual strength."
Participants will continue their dialogue and research; their reflections will be shared with Pope Francis, with the hope for a possible encyclical that will address these issues and challenges and will promote nonviolent initiatives as a way for mediation, rights, hope and love.

Ramblings: Contracts for Seider and Zegras; Buffalo's Big Boys Shine; Rust; Matheson & More
Alexander MacLean
I'll be posting the updated salary cap keeper rankings on the 25th (skaters) and 26th (goalies), so keep an eye out for those. Even with Moritz Seider's slow start, he's still holding off Trevor Zegras for the top spot in the rankings this month. The value you're getting for an offensive Dman with his upside on a rookie contract – not just this year, but for next year too – is irreplaceable. No matter what he signs for on his next deal, it will be worth it. If he was eligible to sign an extension today to kick in next summer, it would be projected at $6.2 million per year. That is only going to rise as he gets closer to his entry level deal expiring.
I like Aaron Ekblad and his mega-deal coming off his entry-level contract as a comparable. Ekblad was a top-pair defenceman at that point, though his offence hadn't quite shone in the way Seider's already has. Ekblad's cap hit at the time that contract was signed was over 10% of the total team cap. For Seider to match that in signing a contract to kick in for fall of 2024, with the cap expected to balloon in the meantime, we could be looking at an AAV over $9 million.
If you look at more recent comparables with Cale Makar, Adam Fox, and Quinn Hughes, it's not difficult to see that the average cap hit of the top young defencemen may already be there. Seider hasn't yet put up the same point totals as these players, but there aren't a lot of perfect comparables for him at this point.
Overall, an eight-figure AAV for Seider isn't out of the question at this point. Felt like I should set that expectation now for these players, because there's a wave of massive contracts coming, and it's going to come a lot faster than many of us may expect.
Trevor Zegras' projected AAV right now is $8.3 million. He's scoring close to a point-per-game on the worst team in the standings right now. Hopefully the Ducks realize they need to get him locked u

Twitter to discuss club matters after members of the squad used the micro-blogging site to criticise Blackburn's El Hadji Diouf.
The Rovers forward was accused of abusing QPR's Jamie Mackie as he lay on the ground with a broken leg during their FA Cup clash at the weekend.
Mackie took to Twitter after the match to claim Diouf had been swearing at him.
Warncok himself described Diouf as 'the lowest of the low', adding: 'To call him a sewer rat would be an insult to sewer rats'.
However, following the Football Association's decision to charge Ryan Babel with misconduct after the Liverpool midfielder posted a picture of referee Howard Webb in a Manchester United shirt in the aftermath of the sides' FA Cup tie, Warncok decided to have a word with his players and attempt to diffuse the situation.
'We don't want charges of our own,' he told the Fulham Chronicle.
QPR isn't the first side to issue its players with Twitter guidelines, the England cricket team was given guidance on what they should and shouldn't say on the site during the Ashes, after a number of high-profile gaffes from players such as Kevin Pietersen.

This is the elephant in the room that nobody wants to touch, and I believe will bring about the death of the Republican party, much like the pro slavery Whigs of the 1850's.
Immigration is probably one of, if not, the most emotional issue confronting our nation. As I have been intimately involved in this matter for over 16 years, I believe I can address the issue with some authority:
America should be foremost a nation of laws and when individuals break those laws, whether already here or trying to get in, chaos ensues, and that is what we have now. I see a lot of angry, and dare I say scared, Americans who are asking what happened to my country? Why are the public school systems and emergency rooms inundated with these undocumented people? How come nobody speaks English?
All legitimate questions... However, I see many of these people, primarily on the right, misplace their frustration on these undocumented individuals, when the real source of frustration and where the blame should be placed is on the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT.
It has been my observation that immigrants, legal or not, regardless of color, creed, religion or language come to this country to work twice as hard as the native population for half the pay. Thank goodness most of them are low skilled and don't speak English, or we'd all be out of jobs! But that isn't the case because immigrants come to fill a void in our economy. In essence, they come here to do immigrant work. As the nation of immigrants that we are, this is how it should be, and always has been. All honest work is honorable, but because of sacrifices that were made by my ancestors, I don't have to pick fruit or landscape in order to feed my family and if you're reading this, I'm confident you don't either. The children of these hard workers (and their children's children) will learn English, go to school, get better paying jobs and fully incorporate themselves into American society. Historically, that has always been the case... up until now. Unfortunately, this natural process has been interrupted by yet another example of government meddling & social engineering through it's failed bilingual education programs, but that is another discussion.
With respect to immigration:
In 1996, Congress passed the Illegal Immigration Reform & Immigrant Responsibility Act which, among other things, provided that a person who is illegally in the United States for over a year and departs, cannot return for 10 years. In 2001, section 245(i) of the Immigration & Nationality Act expired, rendering persons who entered the United States without "proper inspection" unable to legalize their status by paying a fine, for the first time in U.S. history.
What has been the result? The largest undocumented population ever: Millions of people who have come here to work, to supply a demand created by our then booming economy, are trapped here. They cannot, pursuant to our current laws, legalize their status, and if they go the U.S. consulate in their home country to apply for a visa, they cannot re-enter the US for ten years. Bear in mind, many of these people have been here 10, 20 years with children who have grown up here, and English is their first language & know no other country or way of life.
The problem with the amnesty of the Reagan years, and the mistake I see many on the left making today, is the absence of a strong guest worker program that will meet the demands of our economy. I agree that we cannot have an amnesty every 25 years. It cheapens our laws as well as the fabric of our society. However, we cannot remove or even encourage millions of people who already have roots here to just "go home". Many of them are home... and we have to come to terms with that reality.
My common sense solution is the following:
If national security is our foremost concern, than no force will be better suited to secure our borders than our national guard. Once we have regained control of our entries & exits, we can address the undocumented population within our borders in a compassionate yet realistic manner.
If an undocumented worker has stayed out of trouble, paid his/her taxes, has lived here a certain number of years, has children or family here, then at the very least, we need to review their case to see if this is a person worthy of the American Dream.
If, however, an undocumented individual has shown themselves to be a menace, or even a negative, to our society through their actions or lack thereof, they will not be allowed to stay.
Lastly, we need to address the realities of our economy. Much of our present day chaos is caused by the inability of low skilled immigrants to come to this country legally and perform low skilled work. We should make it easier for all immigrants who want to come to this country to work, to be able to do so. A hard working, self sufficient immigrant only contributes to our society & economy, doesn't detract, and as a consequence, we must insist on a realistic guest worker program that reflects this belief or we will be facing this issue every twenty years.

The twin-engine, turbo-prop Beechcraft King Air 100 aircraft, operated by Kenn Borek Air, was carrying 10 people.
One of the people injured in Monday's crash is moved into an ambulance at Edmonton's City Centre Airport. ((CBC))
The plane left Edmonton on Monday and was en route to the Kirby Lake airstrip when it crashed into the muskeg as the pilot was attempting to land around 11:20 a.m. MT.
All the survivors were injured and transported from the scene in stable condition. Two people were flown by air ambulance to Edmonton.
Two others were taken to Fort McMurray. The remaining individuals were treated at the scene and taken to Lac la Biche, about 165 kilometres away.
A spokeswoman for BP Canada, Melanie Ostopowich, confirmed that seven BP employees were on the plane, along with a contractor and two pilots. The name of the person who died has not been released.
TSB investigators to arrive Tuesday
Two ambulance units based at a nearby Cenovus Energy facility were dispatched after a 911 call about the crash was received at 11:37 a.m.
Ground and air ambulances from Fort McMurray were sent to the scene, as well as search and rescue units based in Conklin.

No one from Kenn Borek Air was available to comment but the company issued a written statement Monday afternoon.
"We are working with the RCMP, Transport Canada and the Transportation Safety Board to assist in the well-being of our passengers and employees," the statement said. "We will make a more formal statement in the coming hours."
RCMP are at the scene, but only to keep the site secure, Sgt. Tim Taniguchi said.
"The investigation will have to be done by the Transportation Safety Board of Canada," he said. Investigators are expected to arrive on the scene Tuesday morning.
Conklin is about 250 kilometres northeast of Edmonton.

Mike Tindall doesn't follow royal family members on his newly-opened Instagram – here's why
Zara Tindall's husband has a fairly private Instagram account
October 08, 2019 - 16:33 BST Hanna Fillingham Mike Tindall recently opened an Instagram account but doesn't follow royal family members including the Queen, Prince William and Kate Middleton, Prince Harry and Meghan Markle
Mike Tindall has recently opened an Instagram account and has been delighting his fans with sport-related posts, as well as photos from days out with his famous friends and wife Zara Tindall. The former rugby star has a modest 791 followers currently and only follows 125 accounts himself. While Mike is incredibly close to the royal family, in particular the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge and the Duke and Duchess of Sussex, he doesn't follow any of the royal Instagram pages. This is most likely because he prefers to keep his family life out of the spotlight, and has instead chosen to follow sports accounts and some of his famous friends, including Westlife singer Brian McFadden, who Mike has met on a number of occasions at charity functions, most recently at the Celebrity Cup tournament in July. He also follows Ant and Dec and football star Cristiano Ronaldo.
Mike Tindall doesn't follow any of the royal family accounts on Instagram
The dad-of-two opened his Instagram account in September and recent posts have included a photo from a day out with Cold Feet star James Nesbitt, as well as pictures from a charity event which Mike attended with Zara. The royal couple went along to a Landrover charity day where they took part in clay shooting to raise money for wildlife conservation charity Tusk. The doting husband shared a photo of Zara practicing her aims, and captioned the post: "Great day clay shooting for @tusk_org supported by @landrover_uk. Finished up 3rd but it was a lot of fun!!" Most recently, Mike shared a photo of himself with talkSPORT presenter Russell Hargreaves, and joked that he was his new partner in crime. He wrote: "My partner in crime for the next couple of hours @russ_hargreaves Hopefully watching England lifting the energy and intensity and putting on a performance against the Pumas!! @talksport #comeonengland."

The former rugby captain has a close relationship with the royals
While Mike doesn't follow his royal relatives on social media, he is in regular contact with them on Whatsapp. In May, he revealed that he had found out that baby Archie had been born after Harry shared the news on their cousins' Whatsapp group. Mike was welcomed warmly into the royal family after he began dating Zara, and has a close relationship with them all. In March, Mike and Zara appeared on House of Rugby to chat about their fantasy royal rugby team, with the couple both admitting they would choose the Queen as their captain.

Former England captain Mike revealed he would also include his cousins-in-laws William, Harry and Kate, saying: "Haz, front line man in the military, he'll crash that ball up for us, he'll dominate, he'll boss the tackle line." "Willy is quick, I've raced him, he's quick, he has really fast leg speed," Mike said of the Duke of Cambridge, adding that he would put Kate in the left wing because "she loves running, she'll run all day".

Historic Renovation
Furniture and Finish Selection
Oak Hill Child, Adolescent, and Family Center
The facility involved the expansion and renovation of four one-story brick cottages and gymnasium, which once served as the campus of a Fulton County orphanage in the 1950s, into a state-of-the-art, full-service health & wellness center for Fulton County. In 2011, Fulton County commissioned the design/build team to redesign the cottages into a center providing medical, behavioral health and educational services to families and children, focusing on obesity prevention. Key to the core function of the program would be the exterior fields, walking trails, and running track and the complete renovation of the existing gymnasium.
In addition to the renovation of the existing buildings, which included mold and asbestos abatement, the project also involved the construction of a new one-story brick Administrative Building and connector elements to join it and the existing cottages into one unified facility. A major design intent was to restore the existing cottages and design new campus structures using the 1940's building context.
Site improvements such as improved security, parking, new sidewalks, reworking of existing exterior athletic surfaces, renovation of an existing garage and picnic structure on the grounds, and changes to the central courtyard were also a part of the scope of work.
The existing structures, new structures, and completely developed site were redesigned by the SWI team to provide a continuous accessible route from Metropolitan Parkway throughout the interior and exterior campus facilities.
Interested in partnering with us for a new project? Want to see more of our work? Contact us today, and we'll send you a curated selection of projects tailored to your requests.

"Part of healing is accountability": Indigenous women's organisation mourns Kamloops victims
Civil rights, News Bites, US & Canada
The remains of 215 First Nations children, some as young as three years old, were found last month at the now-defunct Kamloops Indian Residential School in the provincial capital of Canada's British Columbia, in what Prime Minister Justin Trudeau described as a "painful reminder" of a "shameful chapter of our country's history."
The discovery was deeply unsettling on so many levels, said the National Indigenous Women's Resource Center (NIWRC) in a statement on Friday.
The NIWRC is a Native-led non profit organisation in the United States dedicated to ending violence against Native women and children. Many of the members are boarding school survivors or descendants of, and have struggled with their own memories. Writing this statement has been an incredible challenge, they said.
"This news has paralysed us", they wrote.
"This was both an act of physical genocide and of cultural genocide. Generations of First Nations children were stolen from their homes and placed into institutions of unspeakable darkness. They were forced into assimilative, church-run government-sanctioned 'schools,' where they were intentionally and systematically stripped of everything that made them Indigenous. They endured acts of sexual, physical, emotional and cultural abuse and violence generation after generation."
READ MORE: "History is repeating itself when it comes to genocide"
"The impact of this state sanctioned violence cannot be overstated. Communities continue to be devastated by historical and intergenerational trauma and by a genocide and occupation that continues up to this very moment. Canada must answer for this."
These children were invisible and dispensable to the settler world as a result of intentional settler violence, like many of missing and murdered Indigenous people in the United States, the NIWRC said.
"Part of healing is accountability," they wrote. "The US' history of boarding schools and state violence is well-documented, and yet the general public is largely ignorant of the legacy of their institutions. We seek to hold them accountable."
"But today, we mourn. Today, we remember. Today, we offer our prayers for our relatives impacted by this incident to embrace family, culture and community in healing."

The Alpine Valleys Community Leadership Program (AVCLP) was established in December 1998 to facilitate the development of North East Victoria's community leadership capacity.
Based on the design of the Williamson Community Leadership Program delivered in Melbourne, and the Goulburn Valley's Fairley Leadership Program, a volunteer Board of community leaders led by inaugral Chair John Brown AO brought the first program to the region in 1999.
The Program went into recess the following year due to a lack of funding. However, the graduates of that first program valued the program so highly that concerted efforts were made with the Board to deliver further programs. From 2001 onwards, the AVCLP has been delivered every year.
Since its inception, the Program has grown and developed to cater for the economic, social and ennvironmental needs of its region. Each year a diverse group of up to 25 aspiring leaders embark on the ten-month intensive experiential learning program that develops their personal leadership skills, knowledge of the region and network of leadership contacts.
In recent years the organisation's activities have broadened to include the design and delivery of a range of tailored leadership training for business, government and community organisations.
In 2017 AVCLP changed its name to Alpine Valleys Community Leadership in recognition of the increased range of activities that it now offers.

We Are All Future Corpses
Former NEA fellow and Pushcart Prize-winning writer Sallie Tisdale offers a lyrical, thought-provoking, yet practical perspective on death and dying in Advice for Future Corpses (and Those Who Love Them). Informed by her many years working as a nurse, with more than a decade in palliative care, Tisdale provides a frank, direct, and compassionate meditation on the inevitable.
From the sublime (the faint sound of Mozart as you take your last breath) to the ridiculous (lessons on how to close the sagging jaw of a corpse), Tisdale leads the reader through the peaks and troughs of death with a calm, wise, and humorous hand. Advice for Future Corpses is more than a how-to manual or a spiritual bible: it is a graceful compilation of honest and intimate anecdotes based on the deaths Tisdale has witnessed in her work and life, as well as stories from cultures, traditions, and literature around the world.
Tisdale explores all the heartbreaking, beautiful, terrifying, confusing, absurd, and even joyful experiences that accompany the work of dying, including:
A Good Death: What does it mean to die "a good death"? Can there be more than one kind of good death? What can I do to make my death, or the deaths of my loved ones, good?
Communication: What to say and not to say, what to ask, and when, from the dying, loved ones, doctors, and more.
Last Months, Weeks, Days, and Hours: What you might expect, physically and emotionally, including the limitations, freedoms, pain, and joy of this unique time.
Bodies: What happens to a body after death? What options are available to me after my death, and how do I choose--and make sure my wishes are followed?
Grief: "Grief is the story that must be told over and over...Grief is the breath after the last one."
Beautifully written and compulsively readable, Advice for Future Corpses offers the resources and reassurance that we all need for planning the ends of our lives, and is essential reading for future corpses everywhere.

After Death Room: Journey Into Spiritual Activism
At the 13th International AIDS conference in Durban, Michael McColly, a journalist and yoga teacher living with AIDS, found himself confronted with the deeper issues and ethical dimensions of the epidemic. Seeing firsthand the destruction the disease was inflicting on South Africa and hearing the stories of activists from China to Nairobi challenged McColly to place his own problems within a global framework, forcing him to contemplate the lives of HIV positive people without access to treatment, health care, and a supportive community. Through interviews with Buddhist monks in a remote Thai monastery, male sex workers in India, African-American preachers in Chicago, and Senegalese mullahs, McColly comes to a fuller understanding of how cultural attitudes toward death and dying, sexuality and gender, and morality and spirituality affect the life chances of people living with HIV/AIDS. Part spiritual journey, part political transformation, Parables of the Body humanizes the often faceless struggles of people living with HIV/AIDS worldwide and at home.

After: A Doctor Explores What Near-Death Experiences Reveal about Life and Beyond
The world's leading expert on near-death experiences reveals his journey toward rethinking the nature of death, life, and the continuity of consciousness.
Cases of remarkable experiences on the threshold of death have been reported since ancient times, and are described today by 10% of people whose hearts stop. The medical world has generally ignored these "near-death experiences," dismissing them as "tricks of the brain" or wishful thinking. But after his patients started describing events that he could not just sweep under the rug, Dr. Bruce Greyson began to investigate.
As a physician without a religious belief system, he approached near-death experiences from a scientific perspective. In After, he shares the transformative lessons he has learned over four decades of research. Our culture has tended to view dying as the end of our consciousness, the end of our existence--a dreaded prospect that for many people evokes fear and anxiety.
But Dr. Greyson shows how scientific revelations about the dying process can support an alternative theory. Dying could be the threshold between one form of consciousness and another, not an ending but a transition. This new perspective on the nature of death can transform the fear of dying that pervades our culture into a healthy view of it as one more milestone in the course of our lives. After challenges us to open our minds to these experiences and to what they can teach us, and in so doing, expand our understanding of consciousness and of what it means to be human.
Aftershock: What to Do When the Doctor Gives You--Or Someone You Love...
Every year millions of Americans are diagnosed with cancer, stroke, HIV/AIDS, multiple sclerosis, ALS, and other life-threatening or life-altering diseases. When faced with a devastating diagnosis people must quickly understand the diagnosis, prognosis, and choose from several treatment options-while still in shock. AfterShock identifies the processes required to respond to a serious diagnosis, regardless of the specific disease.
Social psychologist Gruman offers practical advice in a 10-stage approach to making clear-headed, informed decisions about who to tell and when; how to get a second opinion or find the right doctor and hospital; where to find reliable online information and telephone help-lines about a particular diagnosis and treatment; how to navigate the health care maze; where to turn for support and comfort.
Dr. Gruman not only draws on her expertise in consumer health information and the advice of doctors and nurses, she shares the personal stories of people who have dealt with traumatic diagnoses, including her own experience of having had three different kinds of cancer and a dangerous heart condition. AfterShock is inspiring and empowering, and is an essential companion book to the disease-specific titles that most people with a devastating diagnosis purchase.

Age of Miracles
As seen on OWN's Super Soul Sunday!The need for change as we get older--an emotional pressure for one phase of our lives to transition into another--is a human phenomenon, neither male nor female. There simply comes a time in our lives--not fundamentally different from the way puberty separates childhood from adulthood--when it's time for one part of ourselves to die and for something new to be born. The purpose of this book by best-selling author and lecturer Marianne Williamson is to psychologically and spiritually reframe this transition so that it leads to a wonderful sense of joy and awakening.In our ability to rethink our lives lies our greatest power to change them. What we have called middle age need not be seen as a turning point toward death. It can be viewed as a magical turning point toward life as we've never known it, if we allow ourselves the power of an independent imagination, utilizing thought-forms that don't simply flow in a perfunctory manner from ancient assumptions handed down to us, but rather flower into new archetypal images of a humanity just getting started at 45 or 50. What we've learned by that time, from both our failures as well as our successes, tends to have humbled us into purity.When we were young, we had energy but were clueless about what to do with it. Today, we have less energy, perhaps, but we have far more understanding of what each breath of life is for. And now at last, we have a destiny to fulfill--not a destiny of a life that's simply over, but rather a destiny of a life that is finally truly lived. Midlife is not a crisis; it's a time of rebirth. It's not a time to accept your death; it's a time to accept your life--and to finally, truly live it, as you and you alone know deep in your heart it was meant to be lived.

Ageless Face, Ageless Mind: Erase Wrinkles and Rejuvenate the Brain
In this revolutionary book, bestselling author and anti-aging expert Dr. Nicholas Perricone reveals a completely new and hidden threat to our looks and our health-and gives us a program to defeat it.
Dr. Nicholas Perricone has gotten to the bottom of accelerated aging with the discovery of AGEs (Advanced Glycation End Products). AGEs are at least as detrimental to our health as transfats but have been largely unknown outside the medical community. AGEs give us wrinkles, but they have also been implicated in serious age-related conditions that cut across all medical specialties, from Alzheimer's and cataracts to cardiovascular disease, diabetes, and cancer. Yet we have not had strategic interventions for stopping and reversing the effects of AGEs until now.
Dr. Perricone shows us how to win the fight against AGEs with a three-part plan of attack that includes a nutritional program, targeted supplements, and new topicals. His groundbreaking program helps to
- erase wrinkles and firm sagging skin
- reverse age-related memory loss
- heal cardiovascular disease
- stop precursors of cancer
- prevent symptoms of diabetes
Ageless Face, Ageless Mind brings us not only a new and exciting field of research and its remarkable discoveries, but also a way to fight one of the biggest hidden threats to our immediate and long-term health.
Ageless: The Naked Truth about Bioidentical Hormones
In this #1 New York Times bestseller, Suzanne Somers reveals the secrets to a younger, healthier, and sexier you.
What if you could really feel better as you get older, or age without illness? What could be better than having your doctor tell you that you have the bones of a twenty-year-old, or the heart of a thirty-year-old? Follow the advice in Ageless, and you'll discover your own internal fountain of youth!
Jam-packed with updated information on bioidentical hormone replacement and antiaging, Ageless will change your life forever. Suzanne talks about:
- Antiaging medicine and how it can help work against the environmental assault that is making us sick
- Menopause, which can become an enjoyable passage once the body is in perfect hormonal sync with bioidentical hormone replacement therapy
- Why so many hysterectomies are unnecessary, how birth control pills may have contributed to the rise of them, and how to restore your body to perfect hormonal balance after having one
- The importance of sleep and the healing work that nature does during this time
Aging as a Spiritual Practice
The bestselling author of Work as a Spiritual Practice presents a user's life guide to aging well and making every year fulfilling and transformative.
Everything changes. For Zen Buddhist priest and meditation teacher Lewis Richmond, this fundamental Buddhist tenet is the basis for a new inner road map that emerges in the later years, charting an understanding that can bring new possibilities and a wealth of appreciation and gratitude for the life journey itself.
Aging as a Spiritual Practice is a wise, compassionate book that guides readers through the four key stages of aging--such as "Lightning Strikes" (the moment we wake up to our aging)--as well as the processes of adapting to change, embracing who we are, and appreciating our unique life chapters. Unlike many philosophical works on aging this one incorporates illuminating facts from scientific researchers, doctors, and psychologists as well as contemplative practices and guided meditations. Breath by breath, moment by moment, Richmond's teachings inspire limitless opportunities for a joy that transcends age.
Aging Myth
- Do you wonder why some people look and feel younger than their actual age while others appear older than they really are?
- Do you believe that the way you age is genetically predetermined?
- Do you believe your aging destiny is inherited on the day you are conceived?
- Do you feel helpless about aging, as if there is nothing you can do about it?
You do not have to buy into the myths about aging. This book is going to empower you with good news as Dr. Joseph Chang reveals that the destiny of your genes is not fixed you can positively impact the way you age from this day forward. He will share new scientific insights to help you look and feel younger than your birthday suggests!
The information contained in these pages unlocks the mysteries of aging. It has been said that as much as people fear death, they fear the ravages of aging even more. The fact is, everyone eventually dies, but some are still youthful when they die.
Alchemy of Stones
An alchemical guide to healing, awakening, and co-creating with crystals from the author of the classic Book of Stones.
For readers looking to expand their knowledge of sacred crystals and stones beyond the foundations, The Alchemy of Stones presents a holistic, Earth-based framework for understanding why and how they work and initiating readers into a transformational, healing, alchemical worldview.
Engaging readers step by step, Simmons provides guidance on discovering and harnessing the three powers of intention, attention, and imagination, each a crucial component for meeting and working in partnership with the energies of crystals. Readers will understand the philosophical underpinnings of alchemy--surprisingly deeper than what one might expect--and translate ancient alchemical wisdom into modern, practical applications for healing, meditation, and self-knowledge.
Simmons shows how to co-create with stones to open minds and awaken hearts, and describes the mystical experiences that led him to develop his own relationship with crystals. Offering illuminations on the universe's conscious and benevolent nature, The Alchemy of Stones is an invitation to a journey of enlightenment, transformation, and spiritual metamorphosis aligned with the path of our living, conscious Earth.
Also included are chapters on making stone mandalas, elixirs, and Orgonite energy devices; powerful techniques for working with stones, including using the web of consciousness to bring change anywhere in the world; and an illustrated metaphysical stone dictionary, with 500 different stones and an index of their spiritual and healing qualities.


Another excellent meal at this restaurant. The service, food, and ambience cannot be faulted. We all had 3 courses and each dish was perfect...the selection of breads so tasty. Extremely good value. Can't wait to go back.

IndyCar loses its lone full-time female; speaks to tougher funding chase
By dizbizroundupFeb 14, 2014, 11:07 AM EST
In 2010, 2011 and 2013, there have been at least four female drivers on the Indianapolis 500 grid.
Although up to three are possible for 2014, there's a very distinct chance none of them will be in a full-time IndyCar driving role.
Simona de Silvestro's decision to pursue Formula One, as a Sauber-affiliated driver, removes the only full-time female driver from the IndyCar grid.
Danica Patrick is the most famous female departure from IndyCar, when she left for NASCAR at the end of 2011.
But all of Katherine Legge, Pippa Mann and Ana Beatriz have made multiple '500 starts in the last few years, and none seems projected for a full-time ride at this juncture.
Sarah Fisher, a record nine-time '500 starter, is still active as a team co-owner with Sarah Fisher Hartman Racing, but has no plans to return to the driver's seat.
Mann continues to work towards a partial season effort; meanwhile Legge, who races the DeltaWing coupe in the TUDOR United SportsCar Championship, no doubt could benefit from another IndyCar chance after being unceremoniously dumped by Dragon Racing on the eve of the 2013 season.
Beatriz, who I spoke to at the Rolex 24 at Daytona as she hoped to land a ride there (she didn't after testing with the Starworks Motorsport PC class team), has said finding finances in Brazil is harder than ever. The four-time Indianapolis 500 starter raced seven events for Dale Coyne Racing in 2013, but the likeable "Bia" didn't appear to have any IndyCar prospects in the pipeline.
Besides the IndyCar drivers above, Ashley Freiberg won the Continental Tire Sports Car Challenge season opener at Daytona in a Fall-Line Motorsports BMW M3, but she too wasn't guaranteed further races beyond that.
Freiberg has past open-wheel experience in both the Pro Mazda and Skip Barber Race Series, the latter of which she has an overall championship.
Even in NASCAR, Johanna Long has had to work harder to find sponsorship after the small ML Motorsports team shut its doors this offseason.
This all poses an intriguing shift from even a few years ago.
Whereby female drivers have, in the past, been able to garner opportunities by the pure fact they are female, and some initiatives have been created to help (namely TrueCar's "Women Empowered" one in 2012), it now seems the game is nearly as hard for female drivers to find sponsorship to race as it is for males.
In some respects, that's a good thing. We might not be there yet, but we might be closer to judging all drivers on ability level rather than picking and choosing based on gender, and the potential sponsorship package they bring.
Part of why de Silvestro was liked in IndyCar was because she was seen by some as the "anti-Danica." They raced in the same series for two years and de Silvestro's management team crafted her as a racing driver who happened to be female. But they found sponsorship for her just as well.
There will always be female drivers who push the "female" angle first, but ultimately, they're all drivers first, and they're all having to work just as hard to keep their racing dreams alive.

1: Who hath believed our report? and to whom is the arm of the LORD revealed?
2: For he shall grow up before him as a tender plant, and as a root out of a dry ground: he hath no form nor comeliness; and when we shall see him, there is no beauty that we should desire him.
3: He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not.
4: Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.
5: But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.
6: All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.
7: He was oppressed, and he was afflicted, yet he opened not his mouth: he is brought as a lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb, so he openeth not his mouth.
8: He was taken from prison and from judgment: and who shall declare his generation? for he was cut off out of the land of the living: for the transgression of my people was he stricken.
9: And he made his grave with the wicked, and with the rich in his death; because he had done no violence, neither was any deceit in his mouth.
10: Yet it pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put him to grief: when thou shalt make his soul an offering for sin, he shall see his seed, he shall prolong his days, and the pleasure of the LORD shall prosper in his hand.
11: He shall see of the travail of his soul, and shall be satisfied: by his knowledge shall my righteous servant justify many; for he shall bear their iniquities.
12: Therefore will I divide him a portion with the great, and he shall divide the spoil with the strong; because he hath poured out his soul unto death: and he was numbered with the transgressors; and he bare the sin of many, and made intercession for the transgressors.
1: Sing, O barren, thou that didst not bear; break forth into singing, and cry aloud, thou that didst not travail with child: for more are the children of the desolate than the children of the married wife, saith the LORD.
3: For thou shalt break forth on the right hand and on the left; and thy seed shall inherit the Gentiles, and make the desolate cities to be inhabited.
4: Fear not; for thou shalt not be ashamed: neither be thou confounded; for thou shalt not be put to shame: for thou shalt forget the shame of thy youth, and shalt not remember the reproach of thy widowhood any more.
5: For thy Maker is thine husband; the LORD of hosts is his name; and thy Redeemer the Holy One of Israel; The God of the whole earth shall he be called.
6: For the LORD hath called thee as a woman forsaken and grieved in spirit, and a wife of youth, when thou wast refused, saith thy God.
7: For a small moment have I forsaken thee; but with great mercies will I gather thee.
8: In a little wrath I hid my face from thee for a moment; but with everlasting kindness will I have mercy on thee, saith the LORD thy Redeemer.
9: For this is as the waters of Noah unto me: for as I have sworn that the waters of Noah should no more go over the earth; so have I sworn that I would not be wroth with thee, nor rebuke thee.
10: For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.
11: O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
12: And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.
13: And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
14: In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
15: Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.
16: Behold, I have created the smith that bloweth the coals in the fire, and that bringeth forth an instrument for his work; and I have created the waster to destroy.
17: No weapon that is formed against thee shall prosper; and every tongue that shall rise against thee in judgment thou shalt condemn. This is the heritage of the servants of the LORD, and their righteousness is of me, saith the LORD.
1: O give thanks unto the LORD; call upon his name: make known his deeds among the people.
2: Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk ye of all his wondrous works.
3: Glory ye in his holy name: let the heart of them rejoice that seek the LORD.
4: Seek the LORD, and his strength: seek his face evermore.
6: O ye seed of Abraham his servant, ye children of Jacob his chosen.
7: He is the LORD our God: his judgments are in all the earth.
8: He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
12: When they were but a few men in number; yea, very few, and strangers in it.
15: Saying, Touch not mine anointed, and do my prophets no harm.
16: Moreover he called for a famine upon the land: he brake the whole staff of bread.
23: Israel also came into Egypt; and Jacob sojourned in the land of Ham.
24: And he increased his people greatly; and made them stronger than their enemies.
25: He turned their heart to hate his people, to deal subtilly with his servants.
26: He sent Moses his servant; and Aaron whom he had chosen.
27: They shewed his signs among them, and wonders in the land of Ham.
28: He sent darkness, and made it dark; and they rebelled not against his word.
29: He turned their waters into blood, and slew their fish.
30: Their land brought forth frogs in abundance, in the chambers of their kings.
31: He spake, and there came divers sorts of flies, and lice in all their coasts.
32: He gave them hail for rain, and flaming fire in their land.
33: He smote their vines also and their fig trees; and brake the trees of their coasts.
35: And did eat up all the herbs in their land, and devoured the fruit of their ground.
36: He smote also all the firstborn in their land, the chief of all their strength.
37: He brought them forth also with silver and gold: and there was not one feeble person among their tribes.
38: Egypt was glad when they departed: for the fear of them fell upon them.
39: He spread a cloud for a covering; and fire to give light in the night.
40: The people asked, and he brought quails, and satisfied them with the bread of heaven.
41: He opened the rock, and the waters gushed out; they ran in the dry places like a river.
42: For he remembered his holy promise, and Abraham his servant.
45: That they might observe his statutes, and keep his laws. Praise ye the LORD.
