John Rogers Commons (October 13, 1862 – May 11, 1945) was an American political economist, sociologist, and historian, one of the pioneers of the school of institutional economics and the foremost authority on the history of U.S. labor. Commons was an active social reformer, applying information from the social sciences to develop his economic theories. He proposed and achieved reforms that improved conditions for workers, such as workers' compensation, safety regulations, and was involved in the development of the Social security program.
Commons' work, improving the life of labor class, formed a substantial contribution to the betterment of human society in the early part of the twentieth century.
John Rogers Commons was born on October 13, 1862, in Hollansburg, Ohio, but his family soon moved to Indiana, where Commons grew up. His father was a newspaper editor, with strong religious beliefs, who tried to install a sense for social justice into his son. This inevitably influenced Commons' later dedication to social service, as well as his commitment to social change.
After completing high school, he wanted to teach in elementary school, but without success. Actually, the whole experience of working with children was so unpleasant for him that he decided never to teach again. Instead, in 1882, he went on to study at Oberlin College. After rather poor performance he managed to graduate (1888) and continue with his graduate studies at the Johns Hopkins University in Baltimore, Maryland. He chose Johns Hopkins because of Richard T. Ely, who taught the German Historical School's approach to economics there.
After spending two years in Baltimore, he accepted a teaching position at the Wesleyan University in Connecticut, and in the same year, he got married. After spending only one year at Wesleyan, Commons left to teach at Oberlin College, but left it soon to accept a higher paying position at Indiana University. He stayed at Indiana again only one year, teaching economics and sociology. After that he went on to Syracuse University in New York where he also stayed only a short period of time.
Commons later found a position with the U.S. Industrial Commission to work on the study on immigration. This was the beginning of his long interest in labor and labor unions. However, during months of study and constant stress, Commons suffered from ill health, and needed months to recover. After that he found job with the National Civics Federation, working on the taxation and labor-management reconciliation. In 1904 he started to teach at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, the position he stayed at the longest in his career. This was also the most fruitful period of his life.
The University of Wisconsin, at the time, had a close relationship with the Progressive Party and Robert M. LaFollette, who asked Commons to support his program of reforms through research. Commons soon engaged in the program, formulating a series of policies on safety regulation in the workplace, workers' compensation, public regulation of utilities, and unemployment. With his work, the University of Wisconsin became the leader in governmental reforms during what was known as the Progressive Era.
Commons served as a member of the Wisconsin Industrial Commission (1911-1913), the U.S. Commission on Industrial Relations (1913-1915), and the Wisconsin Minimum Wage Board (1919-1945).
He also started to write the history of the American labor movement, continuing the work of Richard T. Ely, who had started the study, but was unable to complete it alone. Commons also inherited some files from Carroll Wright, a commissioner of the Department of Labor, before Wright died. Commons published his History of Labor in the United States in 1918.
Commons also served as associate director of the National Bureau of Economic Research (1920-1928) and chairman of the Unemployment Insurance Board of the Chicago Trades (1923-1925).
In his later career, Commons focused on the role of state and other institutions on economic life in general. He published his seminal work, Institutional Economics, in 1934. He continued to teach at the University of Wisconsin until 1933.
Commons died on May 11, 1945, in Fort Lauderdale, Florida.
Commons left a prominent mark on two major areas of economics: The theory of labor and the theory of institutional economics.
Commons saw "State," with its system of democracy and equal suffrage, as the main agent of balance between employers on one side, and employees on the other. State's laws that regulate economic life are mostly directed to protect the business, and thus are mainly of use to employers. State needs also, Commons claimed, to bring laws that would protect common working people—to ensure, for example, health and safety rules or minimum wages.
Commons was a skilled social activist and was able to promote his views effectively. He would never merely theorize about reforms, but would go out into the real world, talk to real people, and ask how and what needs to be changed. He would first obtain the permission of a group of sympathetic employers for a tryout of his ideas in, for example, safety regulations or workers' compensation. After the results showed that his ideas were workable, he would start a campaign for a wider application of the policies and state support for the employers who apply the policies. He managed to have the state to institute the famous Wisconsin worker's compensation program, which was the first such program in the United States. Other policies where his contribution was sound were in the area of payment of compensation for injuries suffered in the workplace, public regulation of utilities, unemployment insurance, and social security-type retirement programs.
Commons also studied the history of labor unions. He undertook two major studies of the history of labor unions in the United States. Beginning in 1910, he edited A Documentary History of American Industrial Society, a large work which preserved many original source documents of the American labor movement. Almost as soon as that work was complete, Commons began editing his History of Labor in the United States, a narrative work which built on the previous 10-volume documentary history. He published this work in 1918.
Commons is well known for developing an analysis of collective action by the state and other institutions, which he saw as essential to understanding economics. In this analysis, he continued the strong American tradition in institutional economics by such figures as the economist and social theorist Thorstein Veblen. This institutional theory was closely related to his remarkable successes in fact-finding and drafting legislation on a wide range of social issues for the state of Wisconsin.
Collective action ranges all the way from unorganized custom to the many organized going concerns, such as the family, the corporation, the trade association, the trade union, the reserve system, the state. The principle common to all of them is greater or less control, liberation and expansion of individual action by collective action (Institutional Economics, 1931).
Either the state, or a corporation, or a cartel, or a holding company, or a co-operative association, or a trade union, or an employers' association, or a trade association, or a joint trade agreement of two associations, or a stock exchange, or a board of trade, may lay down and enforce the rules which determine for individuals this bundle of correlative and reciprocal economic relationships. Indeed, these collective acts of economic organizations are at times more powerful than the collective action of the political concern, the state (Institutional Economics, 1931).
Commons believed that economics cannot be separated from the political or social system, but should be studied together with it.
Commons contributed to economics both with the theory of labor and the theory of institutional economics. He was the first American economist who studied and who tried to improve the conditions of labor. His legislation proposal led to the establishment of Wisconsin's workers' compensation program, which was the first of this kind in the United States. His students, Edwin Witte and Arthur Altmeyer, were involved in the creation of the social security program in the 1930s.
Commons was a contributor to The Pittsburgh Survey, a 1907 sociological investigation of a single American city. His graduate student, John A. Fitch, wrote The Steel Workers, which became a classic depiction of a key industry in early twentieth century America.

This calculator finds the prorated rent that you would have to pay during a given month based on when you moved into a new apartment.
For example, suppose you move into a new apartment on April 25th and the monthly rent is $900. Since there are 30 days in April, you would normally pay $30 per day in rent, but since you would only live in the apartment for 6 days during April, you would only pay rent for those 6 days, which means your prorated rent would be 6 * 30 = $180.
To find the prorated rent for a given monthly rent and move in date, fill in the values below and then click the "Calculate" button.


The house is filled with the fragrance of freshly baked plum cakes, cookies and other Christmas goodies.
There's an excitement in the air as friends and family plan their holidays, put up the Christmas tree and decorate their houses.
People are rushing to get the perfect gift for loved ones and trying to be Santa for their little ones.
Many like to celebrate this season by helping people in need.
Last week, my son and I caught a big bad bug... After a couple of sleepless nights and a couple more sick days, I was down in spirits too... Scary mountains of work were looming large! Or probably it was just that "work" has a way of seeming gigantic and insurmountable when we are sick. To make it worse, I was at the verge of losing the chance to do something I had so much wanted to, all because of the bad timing of the fever.
Recipe: Pasta with Crunchy veggies, mushroom and sausages in white sauce.
In my childhood days, even though my mother had a full-time job which took up 9 hours of her day, I remember her slaving over a hot stove before she left for work to ensure that her family had good and nutritious food to eat. Since we had ravenous appetites, we would eat up whatever she made for us. After that, when she was away at work, my brothers and I would raid her kitchen cupboards :) This is not because we were hungry or anything. But because we knew for sure that she would have stashed away some goodies like nuts or dried raw mango pieces or jaggery in order to cook something special for us when she got time.
After our kitchen-cupboard-raiding-and-gobbling escapades, we made it a point to keep everything back just as they were. Later, when she would look for the stashed stuff to cook something with it, the boxes and jars would be much lighter and when opened, they would be empty most of the time :) And we all would have a hearty laugh when she would claim that there isn't any corner in the house where she can stock food items for longer than a day thanks to super sleuths like us.
My personal favourites from mom's stashes were olives in brine, tamarind in gooey jaggery syrup and dried raw mango pieces. Yes, I loved all things that were sour and tangy (and no, not just pregnant women crave for such things). This love of sour and tangy foods runs in the family - mom, grandmom, my cousins, my son, all of us love it.
Passion fruit is one among the favourite fruits in my house and the passion fruit variety that grows in my parent's farm is very sour and tangy. Its sweet and fruity fragrance is so wonderfully intoxicating.
Palak is not very common in the traditional cooking of my hometown. Amaranth on the other hand, is very much favoured - infact it is cutivated in every home garden and periodically harvested for quick stir-fries with coconut and light spices (commonly known as "cheera thoran" and "cheera mulagittathu" in my native language). And hence for a long time, "spinach" meant amaranth leaves to me and we never ventured into having any palak dishes.
One fine day, long ago, I was out with friends at a restaurant. Palak paneer was ordered by one of them. The moment I tasted the luscious, creamy green gravy with buttery paneer cubes, I loved it immediately. And I could hear the foodie in me say - move over amaranth, palak is here to stay! Since then, palak shared the same position in this foodie heart of mine as the other green leafy veggies. And I absolutely love my greens.
It is that time of the year again, when the houses are adorned with small clay lamps which are filled with oil and lighted in order to signify the triumph of good over evil. The air is filled with the smoke of bursting fire-crackers and sounds of laughter and mirth fill the streets as the festival of Diwali is celebrated.
As much as I love the perfect ending to a good story or movie, I also love having a perfect ending to a wonderful meal. But most of the times that I have guests over I'm usually fussing over the other things such as the starters and the main course or tidying up the house, making sure at least most things are in their place.
This finally leaves me with no time to plan for and make an elaborate dessert. And I end up serving the easiest dessert I can think of - which is mostly store-bought ice-cream with some custard and fruits.
Even though Indian cuisine boasts of a wide variety of thick luscious curries and spicy gravies, when it comes to chicken I have a liking for having it roasted/grilled. I simply cannot resist the wonderful aroma of roast chicken.
I'm sure there will be many such interesting closures to a meal. What are your favourite ones?
Even though red meat has been getting a lot of bad publicity these days, I just cannot stop eating it completely. I need to get my dose of red meat at least once in 2-3 months. Besides, red meat is rich in iron. Eating it in moderation should be fine.
Actually I made it sometime back and got time to write the post only last weekend.
Yes.. in such times, it's the perfect time to have a chocolate!!!
The world seems to be converging, don't you think? There are people travelling to different lands and building homes there, different cultures inter-mingling and so on.
Man being the inquisitive creature that he is, has always been travelling and exploring new lands throughout history. Though in recent times, due to advances in aviation technology, travelling is much easier and more affordable.
Then again, who says that you have to travel to see the world. The power of the internet makes information about any place or anything available at our fingertips!
Amidst all this, there are different cuisines merging as people learn to adapt to different tastes and also as they try to adapt new tastes to their styles. The resulting convergent cuisine abounds in the best traits and tastes of multiple cuisines.
Whoever said "The way to a man's heart is through his stomach" wasn't talking about my husband :) J is a person who eats just enough to get by - so unlike me, who dreams about chocolate, roast chicken and cheese-dripping Pizza slices all the time.
There is just one dish in the whole wide world that J loves to indulge in - Tandoori chicken!!! So I learnt to make this dish early on in our marriage :) by buying some tandoori masala (Though I forget which brand it was) and following the recipe on the back of the pack :) The tandoori chicken made using that recipe was so simple and yet so amazing. And so I stuck to it all these years. But I guess it's pretty much a standard recipe.
There is something about an ice cream cake that makes it extra special (more than just the usual scoops of ice cream or a normal cake).
I had been wanting to try out a cookie recipe for so long. But since there are truckloads of different biscuits and cookies available at the shops, I didn't get around to making any until yesterday.
Speculaas is a cinnamon and ginger flavoured sweet cookie. The interesting thing about this is the range of spices used. The thought of biting into these sweet and spicy cookies made me curious and eager to try them out.
Do you get bored eating the same kind of food everyday?
Though it felt like ages since we had chicken, I was in the mood for a different combination of flavours. My standard red chilli-tomato-coriander base that I make for non-veg dishes wasn't exciting enough.
But then again, not everyone in my family likes to eat vastly different foods very often.
I wanted to try out something that will break the monotony of the usual flavours but also something that would go well with our staple food of rice, cooked buttermilk and vegetable side-dishes. That way, I could satisfy my family's need to hang on to the comfort of "naadan" food as well as my raging appetite for new foodie avenues.
This is a favourite crunchy snack amongst Keralites.
Yes, it is another jackfruit dish for today's post :) The foodie in me feels that I just have to share my love of this fruit with you and thereby post one more of the yummy ways to use it in cooking.
If you want to check out the other dish that I had made with jackfruit, click here (it has pics of the tree and the whole fruit as well) and to read more about this wonderful fruit click here.
If there is such a title as the King of Chips then homemade jackfruit chips will win hands down. Potato chips, banana chips or any other chips pale in comparison to this awesome chip.
Do you sometimes feel certain things happen just for you ?
Like what I saw out the window when I returned home after work today.
Just moments before my eyes landed on this view, I was feeling drained and stressed out. This was just what I needed to get recharged again.
You all know my good friend V right? For those of you who don't, V and I were colleagues and cubical-neighbours. And quickly became great friends. The otherwise dull work-days seemed so much nicer with her around to listen to my cribs, advices (:P), successes, failures, etc. She also always had something to munch on :) So whether I was hungry, stressed out or just looking for a chat, life seemed better after I stopped by her cube.
Today's post is a guest post from her :) Thanks V for the gorgeous granola bars. I'm drooling already. Do check out her blog for more mouth-watering delectables.
It's jackfruit season and the jackfruit trees are full of them.
Jackfruit is eaten in many forms in Kerala. In fact, even the jackfruit seeds are cooked / fried and relished. The raw jackfruit is a good source of carbohydrates and cooked with coconut and spices and eaten as a main course and substitute for rice. A certain variety of raw jackfruit can also be fried to make jackfruit chips. When the jackfruit is ripe, it is very sweet and can be eaten uncooked as a fruit or made into a variety of sweet dishes.
With such a large number of jackfruits at our disposal when we were in Kerala, we made many dishes out of them and had our cravings satisfied.. at least for a while.
The recipe I'm posting today is of a really easy and common dish in Kerala, made with ripe jackfruit and roasted rice-flour. They are traditionally wrapped in the fragrant Malabathrum (Elamangam / Edana) leaves and steam cooked. Malabathrum leaves have a lovely cinnamon-like fragrance. This fragrance is imparted to the dish when it is wrapped in these leaves and steam cooked.
In case, this particular type of leaves are not available, this dish can also be made wrapped in banana leaves and then steam-cooked. On doing so, since the dish will not have the wonderful smell from the Malabathrum leaves, a tiny pinch of cinnamon powder can be added to the dough before steaming it.
Flickering in the winds of time.
Is it just void nothingness?
Or a new eternal blaze?
Who doesn't like chaats with their spicy, sweet, tangy and crispy combinations?! My favourite is the dahi papdi chaat especially during the summers! It's so refreshing to dig into a plate full of curd, crispy papdis, potatoes / channa (chickpeas), seasoned with the sweet and spicy chutneys and garnished with chopped coriander leaves. With chaat shops in every corner of Bangalore, its very easy to satisfy your chaat cravings.
If you actually think about it, chaats are not so bad for health if you remove the deep-fried stuff like the papdis, sev, pooris etc. The rest of it - curd, chutneys, boiled potatoes, channa, sprouts or pomegranate seeds, etc are good stuff.
And so began my quest to make the low-cal dahi papdi chaat. I started thinking of ways to replace the deep-fried stuff in them. I finally decided to make baked poori instead of papdi. Baked poori is crispy and crunchy and tastes similar to papdi, provided the dough is rolled out thin.
For the low-cal sev, I spent quite sometime racking my brains. I finally got it - dry roasted crushed instant noodles! Though sev is not an important component if the chaat. I feel it can be left out without any difference in taste to the chaat.
Dahi Papdi chaat also has plain boiled and cooked potato / channa (chickpeas) or sprouted beans. But on that day, I had some channa masala leftover from lunch, that I wanted to use up. It really doesn't matter whether you add plain cooked channa (chickpeas) or a channa masala.
What happens when a chocoholic realizes that she is caramel-crazy too? Bad things happen! Especially to her hips... Unless she makes sure to increase her exercise-time!
But food-wise, it's a really awesome thing to happen. These are totally worth it - the extra exercise and additional hours at the gym!
These chocolate coated caramels are so good and so addictive. It's easy to polish off the entire batch in one sitting. So beware people! Make sure to distribute them to neighbours and family members as soon as possible before you unknowingly reach for another.. and yet another... and then before you know it, it's all over! And it's all inside you!
These are really easy to make and are excellent gifts as well.
The only problem I face when I bake cakes with my son is that it gets difficult to stop him from eating the cake batter (salmonella poisoning from raw eggs?!). The person who said "Nothing is Impossible" got to be kidding. Just try stopping a 4-year old from eating cake batter when you are gorging on it yourself :P That, my friends, is the perfect definition of the word "Impossible".
It's cricket fever in India. And the temperature is running high!
Whenever the Indian Cricket Team plays, its not just the players who are involved. It's an entire nation of fans! Fans are as involved in the game as the players. Some of them are so tensed that they can hardly sleep properly the night before. The religious fans resort to seeking God to plead for the team's victory. The superstitious fans tend to blame themselves or their actions for things ranging from loss of wickets to the low scores.
In India, cricket is not just a game. It's much more. I'm not an ardent cricket fan. But when I see the people around me, I realise that there's at least a billion hearts beating for Team India. And after their victory, there's a billion people celebrating with them.
Last wednesday's victory saw the night sky being lit up with fire crackers, people on bikes speeding away waving the tricolour and shouts of joy and dancing from all over.
The day of the Cricket World cup final is here and if that is causing you to burn in anticipation, then here's a great way to cool down and hope for the very best to come. .

In this warm-hearted and lyrical text, a little boy, full of wonder, asks his mama who makes a tiny seed, a curled-up kitten, purple plums, the salty sea, and more.
"With sweet rhyming text, the soft and tender illustrations are the perfect compliment! A mother and her two children romp and explore the outdoors. Climbing on rocks, swimming in the sea, and discovering a newly sprouted seed, every step of the way they conclude that only God can make each one."


Plans to breath new life into the site of an arson-hit former social club in Connah's Quay look set to get the go-ahead.
The former Albion social club next to St Mark's church has been plagued by issues in recent years, including a deliberate fire in August last year.
There have also been reports of anti-social behaviour and fly-tipping, including 30 car tyres which were dumped outside the property in 2016.
Plans were submitted in June by Pennaf Housing Group in partnership with Anwyl Construction to demolish the old building and create 30 affordable apartments for people aged over 55.
They now look set to be approved, subject to a number of conditions, when Flintshire Council planning committee meet next week.
Thirteen objection letters were sent to the council during a period of consultation, they include concerns over the number of parking spaces, the need for pensioners bungalows, the height of the building and pedestrian safety due to the increased traffic.
Connah's Quay Town Council said it was concerned the development overlooked neighbouring properties.
Conditional planning permission is recommended to be granted subject to the applicant entering into a Section 106 agreement to provide a payment of £8,600 for a scheme to upgrade the eastbound bus stop facility at The Swan.
An application to build 33 apartments at the site of the club was approved in 2016, but the company behind the previous scheme went into liquidation.
Unlike the previous application, it's proposed that the new three-storey apartment block will have a flat roof to fit in with the surrounding area.
"The proposed scheme would create a form of development both in layout and design terms which would lead to an overall betterment of the site and improve the residential amenity of existing properties.

Previously The Filmsmith brought you the Christopher Nolan filmography video that cleverly teased out the themes of Nolan's films, and the image system within which he works. Now we have a slick video of David Fincher's filmography created by Kees van Dijkhuizen.
With the exception of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, Fincher tends to deal with dark themes (violence, greed, betrayal, etc) and his forthcoming film, The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo, looks to be a continuation of these themes. Given the number of people involved in making any film, the fact that Fincher's presence is strong and consistent across his entire body of work lends credence to the auteur theory.

After hearing so much about Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God, I picked up my copy for the Amazon Kindle .
The book itself is a quick read, so I intentionally slowed down to read it over a few days.
Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God is one of those books to linger in, to dwell on it, one chapter a day as part of your devotional life.
To go faster than that will miss the point of the challenges that Chan puts forth.
To rush through the reading of this little book will cause you to miss out on the calling that it gives – to consider how to live for God: sacrificially, and completely sold out to Him.
The first three chapters are some basic reminders of our theology, while the remaining chapters are a call for Christians to examine themselves in light of that.
Read the opening chapters too fast and you'll miss the point of the later chapters.
I've talked with churches that will use it as a small group book, and the book points to supporting multi-media material on a dedicated website to help that process happen.
The big take away challenge is how do we live sacrificially without being irresponsible?
Chan doesn't dictate what that has to look like in your life, but he pushes you to think. He doesn't give a specific response like give a year of your life savings away, or commit to praying for a year, but to take the time to ponder how can you live on God's mission.
What might it look like if we lived our lives as fully devoted followers of Jesus?
What can we do to make this life count for the Kingdom of God?
What does it mean for the Walker family to give itself away in mission?
How does our lifestyle demonstrate our radical commitment to following Jesus?
How Crazy Love might help with Evangelism.
The book itself is not intentionally evangelistic – it is written for the church and to the church.
Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God is a book clearly aimed at helping Christians evaluate their own life and participation in the work of the Kingdom of God.
Many modern gospel presentations focus on the benefit of eternal life, forgiveness of sins, and other matters of a personal or individual relationship with God.
What many short presentations lack (or omit for brevity) is a kingdom vision – how to live to your life as a disciple. It's often "say a prayer and your in." We don't always share the call to radical discipleship that should follow.
we can present our lives as evidence of that discipleship transformation. We have something we can call people into – to give their lives away now in following Jesus.
If we remain simply passive church-going Christians who lack that kingdom vision, our lives give nothing to emulate. Our passion to follow Christ isn't visible, and Christianity remains mental agreement to a set of propositions.
Chan reminds us in Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God that following Christ calls us to give ourselves away in service for the Kingdom of God.
As we do, we can't help but share the wonder of who God is, the motives of our service, and find the joy of inviting people to join us in transforming the world as followers of Christ.

Mercury (;  ) is a major god in Roman religion and mythology, being one of the 12 Dii Consentes within the ancient Roman pantheon. He is the god of financial gain, commerce, eloquence, messages, communication (including divination), travelers, boundaries, luck, trickery, and thieves; he also serves as the guide of souls to the underworld.

In Roman mythology, he was considered to be either the son of Maia, one of the seven daughters of the Titan Atlas, and Jupiter, or of Caelus and Dies. In his earliest forms, he appears to have been related to the Etruscan deity Turms; both gods share characteristics with the Greek god Hermes. He is often depicted holding the caduceus in his left hand. Similar to his Greek equivalent Hermes, he was awarded a magic wand by Apollo, which later turned into the caduceus, the staff with intertwined snakes.

Etymology
The name "Mercury" is possibly related to the Latin words  ("merchandise"; cf. merchant, commerce, etc.),  (to trade), and  (wages); another possible connection is the Proto-Indo-European root merĝ- for "boundary, border" (cf. Old English "", Old Norse "" and Latin "") and Greek  (by analogy of /), as the "keeper of boundaries," referring to his role as bridge between the upper and lower worlds.

History
Mercury did not appear among the   of early Roman religion. Rather, he subsumed the earlier Dei Lucrii as Roman religion was syncretized with Greek religion during the time of the Roman Republic, starting around the 4th century BC. His cult was introduced also by influence of Etruscan religion in which Turms had similar characteristics. From the beginning, Mercury had essentially the same aspects as Hermes, wearing winged shoes (talaria) and a winged hat (), and carrying the caduceus, a herald's staff with two entwined snakes that was Apollo's gift to Hermes. He was often accompanied by a rooster, herald of the new day, a ram or goat, symbolizing fertility, and a tortoise, referring to Mercury's legendary invention of the lyre from a tortoise shell.

Like Hermes, he was also a god of messages, eloquence and of trade, particularly of the grain trade. He was the patron of travelers and the god of thievery as well. Mercury was also considered a god of abundance and commercial success, particularly in Gaul, where he was said to have been particularly revered. He was also, like Hermes, the Romans' psychopomp, leading newly deceased souls to the afterlife. Additionally, Ovid wrote that Mercury carried Morpheus' dreams from the valley of Somnus to sleeping humans.

Archeological evidence from Pompeii suggests that Mercury was among the most popular of Roman gods. The god of commerce was depicted on two early bronze coins of the Roman Republic, the sextans and the .

Syncretism
When they described the gods of Celtic and Germanic tribes, rather than considering them separate deities, the Romans interpreted them as local manifestations or aspects of their own gods, a cultural trait called the . Mercury, in particular, was reported as becoming extremely popular among the nations the Roman Empire conquered; Julius Caesar wrote of Mercury being the most popular god in Britain and Gaul, regarded as the inventor of all the arts. This is probably because, in the Roman syncretism, Mercury was equated with the Celtic god Lugus, and in this aspect was commonly accompanied by the Celtic goddess Rosmerta. Although Lugus may originally have been a deity of light or the sun (though this is disputed), similar to the Roman Apollo, his importance as a god of trade made him more comparable to Mercury, and Apollo was instead equated with the Celtic deity Belenus.

Romans associated Mercury with the Germanic god , by ; 1st-century Roman writer Tacitus identifies him as the chief god of the Germanic peoples.

Names and epithets
Mercury is known to the Romans as  and occasionally in earlier writings as  or , had a number of epithets representing different aspects or roles, or representing syncretisms with non-Roman deities. The most common and significant of these epithets included the following:

Mercurius Artaios, a syncretism of Mercury with the Celtic god Artaios, a deity of bears and hunting who was worshiped at Beaucroissant, France.
Mercurius Arvernus, a syncretism of the Celtic Arvernus with Mercury. Arvernus was worshiped in the Rhineland, possibly as a particular deity of the Arverni tribe, though no dedications to Mercurius Arvernus occur in their territory in the Auvergne region of central France.
Mercurius Cimbrianus, a syncretism of Mercury with a god of the Cimbri sometimes thought to represent Odin.
Mercurius Cissonius, a combination of Mercury with the Celtic god Cissonius, who is written of in the area spanning from Cologne, Germany to Saintes, France.
Mercurius Esibraeus, a syncretism of the Iberian deity Esibraeus with the Roman deity Mercury. Esibraeus is mentioned only in an inscription found at Medelim, Portugal, and is possibly the same deity as Banda Isibraiegus, who is invoked in an inscription from the nearby village of Bemposta.
Mercurius Gebrinius, a syncretism of Mercury with the Celtic or Germanic Gebrinius, known from an inscription on an altar in Bonn, Germany.
Mercurius Moccus, from a Celtic god, Moccus, who was equated with Mercury, known from evidence at Langres, France. The name Moccus ("pig") implies that this deity was connected to boar-hunting.
Mercurius Sobrius ("Mercury the Teetotaler"), a syncretism of Mercury with a Carthaginian god of commerce.
Mercurius Visucius, a syncretism of the Celtic god Visucius with the Roman god Mercury, attested in an inscription from Stuttgart, Germany. Visucius was worshiped primarily in the frontier area of the empire in Gaul and Germany. Although he was primarily associated with Mercury, Visucius was also sometimes linked to the Roman god Mars, as a dedicatory inscription to "Mars Visucius" and Visucia, Visicius' female counterpart, was found in Gaul.

In ancient literature
In Virgil's Aeneid, Mercury reminds Aeneas of his mission to found the city of Rome. In Ovid's Fasti, Mercury is assigned to escort the nymph Larunda to the underworld. Mercury, however, falls in love with Larunda and makes love to her on the way. Larunda thereby becomes mother to two children, referred to as the Lares, invisible household gods.

Temple
Mercury's temple in Rome was situated in the Circus Maximus, between the Aventine and Palatine Hills, and was built in 495 BC.

That year saw disturbances at Rome between the patrician senators and the plebeians, which led to a secession of the plebs in the following year. At the completion of its construction, a dispute emerged between the consuls Appius Claudius Sabinus Regillensis and Publius Servilius Priscus Structus as to which of them should have the honour of dedicating the temple.

The Roman Senate referred the decision to the popular assembly, and also decreed that whichever was chosen should also exercise additional duties, including presiding over the markets, establish a merchants' guild, and exercising the functions of the . The people, because of the ongoing public discord, and in order to spite the senate and the consuls, instead awarded the honour of dedicating the temple to Marcus Laetorius, the senior military officer of one of the legions. The senate and the consuls, in particular the conservative Appius, were outraged at this decision, and it inflamed the ongoing situation.

The dedication occurred on 15 May, 495 BC.

The temple was regarded as a fitting place to worship a swift god of trade and travel, since it was a major center of commerce as well as a racetrack. Since it stood between the plebeian stronghold on the Aventine and the patrician center on the Palatine, it also emphasized the role of Mercury as a mediator.

Worship
Because Mercury was not one of the early deities surviving from the Roman Kingdom, he was not assigned a  (priest), but he did have his own major festival, on 15 May, the Mercuralia. During the Mercuralia, merchants sprinkled water from his sacred well near the Porta Capena on their heads.

In popular culture

Mercury features in the first published comic book story of Jack Kirby, Mercury in the 20th Century, published in Red Raven Comics 1, 1940.

The United States' so-called Mercury dime, issued from 1916 to 1945, actually features a Winged Liberty and not the god Mercury, but despite wearing a Phrygian cap instead of a winged helm, the coin bears his name due to resemblance.

Mercury is one of the playable gods in the third-person multiplayer online battle arena game Smite.

Cream of Chicken Soup Substitute is quick, easy, and a great way to add flavor and depth to casseroles. A good way to replace canned condensed soup.
I know. I know. You don't have to say it. This post is not at all exciting or spectacular. It's not the latest or greatest recipe. Nope. It sure isn't. Instead, it's about cream of chicken soup substitute.
Nothing overly special there, but it is a required ingredient in many, many recipes. I thought it was necessary to share this recipe because you never know when it might come in handy.
I've cooked several casseroles that require condensed soup. In fact, casseroles probably wouldn't be the same without it.
So, while this cream of chicken soup substitute may not be a dish you can make over the weekend and have leftovers for Monday's lunch, you will be able to learn how to prepare this impressive standby in case you are in a pinch.
Never in a million years did I ever think I'd be explaining to anyone how to make cream of chicken soup substitute. You may be wondering why in the world anyone would want to make it when canned soup is readily available in supermarkets everywhere.
I started making it because I don't particularly like canned soup. It's also good to know what you're cooking with and be able to control the flavors, consistency and sodium content.
There's only been one time in my entire life when I remember purchasing a can of condensed soup. If I recall correctly, it was used to make green bean casserole, and it wasn't something I cared to buy again.
Even if you aren't like me and have nothing against canned soup, it's a good idea to have as a standby in case you don't have the condensed soup you need.
Cream of chicken soup substitute is a great recipe to use in a pinch, and no one will be able to tell the difference. I use it every time I make hash brown casserole, and it works beautifully.
This recipe only takes a few minutes to make. It begins with a few spices and ends with what is essentially a flavorful roux.
The great thing about this recipe is that you can increase the amount (double or triple) and store the unused portion in the fridge for up to a week. If your recipe only calls for one can of condensed soup, this recipe is pretty spot on. It can be used on a one to one ratio.
I've used this cream of chicken soup substitute in a handful of recipes, and it works well. You can adjust the spices to meet the flavors of the dish. If you need more garlic taste, add more garlic powder.
Maybe more onion, add extra onion powder. It's that simple. Give it a try the next time you are in need of condensed soup. You may never buy canned again.

This cream of chicken soup substitute is quick, easy, and a great way to add flavor and depth to casseroles. A good way to replace canned condensed soup.
In a small bowl, whisk together milk and flour. Be sure to break up any lumps.
In a medium saucepan, combine broth, spices, salt, and pepper. Allow to come to a simmer on low-medium heat.
Whisk the broth and slowly add the milk and flour mixture.
Continue to whisk for 2-3 minutes until mixture begins to thicken.
The mixture will continue to thicken as it cools.
Use immediately or store in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to a week.
Funny story! Before I even started a blog, let alone met you in the blogging community, I used this recipe (from your blog!) when I needed cream of chicken soup in a pinch. Belated thank you!!
I just made your cream of chicken soup for subbing for the can. I like this better. But I also used in the Pressure cooker XL under the soup label. I will use this whenever I make or need soup.
Another useful post, thanks. I love your site. I try to use store bought soups as little as possible. This could be very handy.
Im one of those that buys it canned 🙈 need to start making it myself.
How would you recommend editing this to make cream of celery or cream of mushroom? I have breast cancer and I need to make diet changes of less processed foods whenever possible. I'll definitely be using this cream of chicken in my old favorite recipes but we also make a lot of things that use cream of celery and mushroom! Would you think sautéing celery/mushrooms in olive oil first and stir them into a basic rue?
Hi Alisha! For cream of mushroom, add 1/2 cup to 1 cup finely chopped mushrooms (depending on how chunky/thick you want the soup). Cook those down first with a small amount of butter, then add the broth, spices, and roux. For the cream of celery, it's the same as the mushroom. Add 1/2 to 1 cup finely chopped celery depending on how thick of a soup you like and how heavy of a celery taste. Follow the same directions as above for the rest. 🙂 You could also swap out the chicken broth for veggie broth, but it will change the flavor some. Thanks for the question! Best wishes for your health!
Found your recipe and plan on trying it tonight as my chicken divan base. Question for you is would this amount be about the equivalent of a can of cream of chicken soup, as I need two?
Hi, Valddie! Yes, this recipe makes approximately the same amount of cream of chicken soup that's in one can (about 10.5 ounces). It's easy to double if you require more. Thanks for stopping by and have a great afternoon!
This worked perfectly! Tasted great, and now my crock pot pork chops will taste even better without the canned stuff! THANK YOU! 10 for 10 will absolutely use again!
Thanks for the fantastic recipe! It just makes me feel dirty to buy canned "Cream of Whatever" soups. We are trying our best to eat healthy, but every so often you want a version of a comfort food.

Tacky's Revolt
by Vincent Brown
Harvard Book Store welcomes VINCENT BROWN—Charles Warren Professor of American History at Harvard University and author of The Reaper's Garden: Death and Power in the World of Atlantic Slavery—for a discussion of his latest book Tacky's Revolt: The Story of an Atlantic Slave War. He will be joined in conversation by JULIAN LUCAS, associate editor at Cabinet and contributing editor at The Point.
In the second half of the eighteenth century, as European imperial conflicts extended the domain of capitalist agriculture, warring African factions fed their captives to the transatlantic slave trade while masters struggled continuously to keep their restive slaves under the yoke. In this contentious atmosphere, a movement of enslaved West Africans in Jamaica (then called Coromantees) organized to throw off that yoke by violence. Their uprising―which became known as Tacky's Revolt―featured a style of fighting increasingly familiar today: scattered militias opposing great powers, with fighters hard to distinguish from noncombatants. It was also part of a more extended borderless conflict that spread from Africa to the Americas and across the island. Even after it was put down, the insurgency rumbled throughout the British Empire at a time when slavery seemed the dependable bedrock of its dominion. That certitude would never be the same, nor would the views of black lives, which came to inspire both more fear and more sympathy than before.
Tracing the roots, routes, and reverberations of this event across disparate parts of the Atlantic world, Vincent Brown offers us a superb geopolitical thriller. Tacky's Revolt expands our understanding of the relationship between European, African, and American history, as it speaks to our understanding of wars of terror today.
Vincent Brown is Charles Warren Professor of American History and Professor of African and African American Studies. He directs the History Design Studio and teaches courses in Atlantic history, African diaspora studies, and the history of slavery in the Americas. Brown is the author of The Reaper's Garden: Death and Power in the World of Atlantic Slavery and producer of Herskovits at the Heart of Blackness, an audiovisual documentary broadcast on the PBS series Independent Lens.
Julian Lucas is a writer and critic based in Brooklyn. His work focuses on the commemoration of slavery in computer games and reenactments. His essays and reviews have appeared in The New York Review of Books, The New Yorker, Harper's, and The New York Times, where he is a contributing writer to the Book Review. He is an associate editor at Cabinet and contributing editor at The Point.

Q: O/R mappers that can update the database schema automatically? Are there any O/R mappers out there that will automatically create or modify the database schema when you update the business objects? After looking around it seems that most libraries work the other way by creating business object from the database schema.
The reason I'd like to have that capability is that I am planning a product that stores its data in a database on the customer's machine. So I may have to update the database schema when a new version comes out.
Another requirement is that the mapper supports a file based database like SQLite or JET, not only SQL server.
I know XPO from Developer Express has that capability but I was wondering if there are any alternatives out there.
Thanks

A: NHibernate can generate the database schema from the business objects for you.

A: SubSonic does what you need. It has a migration class to be use with sonic commander. I modified the code and put it in the startup of my apps, and have it check for version difference and upgrade automatically.
This is how you need to setup it up:

*

*You need to add the versioned migration class. You might want to take a look at this tutorial if you never used SubSonic before. The following class is saved as \Migrations\001_initial.cs, if you called migrate.exe (inside VS) from subsonic, it will update the current db to the latest version available. You need to keep the 3 digit version prefix as your filename for migrate.exe to work properly as mentioned in the tutorial. As for the class name, the underscore and 3 digit version prefix is needed for the migration class written by myself to detect the version properly.

//*Not sure why I need this line to make the code block working below
namespace MyApps.Migrations
{
    public class _001_Initial : Migration
    {
        public override void Up()
        {
            //Execute your upgrade query here
        }
        public override void Down()
        {
            //Execute your downgrade query here
        }
    }
}

*Called CheckForMigration() during the startup of your application. IsUpdateAvailable will indicate that you need to update the db. You just need to call Migrate(). IsAppVersionOlder indicate that your application is made with older version db schema (maybe another copy of the newer apps has updated the db). With, you can prevent the older apps from running and corrupting your updated db.

        }

    }
}

A table named SubSonicSchemaInfo will be added automatically by SubSonic to your db to help keep track of the db version.
It's a long post, hope I didn't missed anything

cardigan junkie: Best shirt ever!
I rarely find something that fits so well that I must share. Not since my Long & Lean jeans have I been so thrilled! Last weekend I needed a new white button down for this year, so I bought the Double Button Placket Shirt from the The Limited and I love it. I love it so much I am buying multiple colors.
The side by side buttons make the front of the shirt lay flat, and it does not gape despite my bra's best attempts at making an appearance. The ruffle is not overpowering and sets it apart from my other shirts. The sleeves are stretchy and don't cut off circulation in my arms. I daresay this is a perfect shirt - AND IT IS ON SALE.
Update: I've discovered that there is also a shirt dress in teal and black/white. Ordering now with the money from my expense report.

Carrie Fisher Reveals She Had an "Intense" Affair with Harrison Ford While Filming 'Star Wars'
"It was Han and Leia during the week, and Carrie and Harrison during the weekend."
By Diana Bruk
Han Solo and Princess Leia is one of the greatest love stories in all of cinema.
And now, nearly 40 years after the release of the original trilogy that made them so famous, Carrie Fisher has finally revealed that the chemistry between her and Harrison Ford wasn't only on-screen.
At the time, she was 19, and he was 33, married, and the father of two kids. But none of that stopped them from having a passionate affair while filming the first Star Wars film in 1976.
"It was so intense," she told People. "It was Han and Leia during the week, and Carrie and Harrison during the weekend."
Fisher writes about the long-rumored romance in her new book, The Princess Diarist, which Harrison Ford received an early copy of, along with advance notice about the big reveal.
In one excerpt, she describes how she was riddled with insecurity after their first night together, which was after a birthday party for George Lucas.
"I looked over at Harrison. A hero's face—a few strands of hair fell over his noble, slightly furrowed brow. How could you ask such a shining specimen of a man to be satisfied with the likes of me?"
According to her book, the young starlet "relentlessly" chased him around, and fantasized about him proposing to her with "a gold band with diamonds (inscribed) 'Carrison.'"
She also claims that his 1979 divorce from his first wife, Mary Marquardt, happened "for reasons having nothing whatsoever to do with me."
And though the affair only lasted three months and ended as soon as the film wrapped, she has fond memories of their time together, few as those memories may be thanks to "the brutal strength of Harrison's preferred strain of pot."
"I was so inexperienced, but I trusted something about him," she said. "He was kind."

West Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust is a highly successful, award-winning trust providing hospital and community services to a population of around 280,000 people who live in west Suffolk.
Our vision is to pursue quality and excellence for patients, putting their health and wellbeing first. A high performing trust, our most recent CQC results gave us an overall rating of "outstanding", one of just seven general hospitals in England, and the only one in the Midlands and East region, to hold the accolade. We aim to be one of the safest and most joined-up healthcare systems in England, working in more integrated ways with those that provide health and social care in our community.
We work hard to meet the challenges facing the NHS: people living longer, with complex issues, lifestyle diseases including obesity, alcoholism and smoking. This means not just treating the patient in front of us but working with our partners across west Suffolk to promote a healthy life and ensure we have the right care in the right place to support them to live as independently as possible.
We provide acute hospital services from our 430-bed hospital set in parkland on the outskirts of Bury St Edmunds. The hospital has an emergency department, obstetrics, maternity and neonatal services, a day surgery unit, eye unit and children's wards and provides the full range of secondary care services. We refer many patients who need more specialist care to Addenbrooke's Hospital in Cambridge and many of our consultants work in both hospitals.
We train the doctors of the future and provide the clinical base for the Cambridge Graduate Medical course. We value our student doctors and other trainees in the healthcare professions and are a centre of excellence for education.
We provide community services for the residents of west Suffolk as part of partnership of providers including Ipswich Hospital NHS Trust, Norfolk Community Healthcare NHS Trust and Norfolk and Suffolk NHS Foundation Trust. These services are currently being developed further as we move to more integrated ways of working.

La politique en Géorgie implique une république démocratique représentative parlementaire avec un système multipartite. Le Président de la Géorgie est le chef d'État protocolaire et le Premier ministre de la Géorgie est le chef du gouvernement. Le Premier ministre et le gouvernement exercent le pouvoir exécutif. Le pouvoir législatif appartient à la fois au gouvernement et au Parlement unicaméral de Géorgie.

L'État géorgien est fortement centralisé, à l'exception des régions autonomes d'Abkhazie et d'Adjarie et de l'ancienne région autonome d'Ossétie du Sud. L'Abkhazie et l'Ossétie du Sud, qui disposaient d'une autonomie au sein de la RSS de Géorgie pendant la période soviétique, ont fait unilatéralement sécession de la Géorgie dans les années 1990. Depuis 2016, le gouvernement géorgien reconnaît l'autonomie de l'Abkhazie au sein de la Géorgie, mais ne reconnaît pas de statut particulier à l'Ossétie du Sud.

Présentation

Indépendante depuis  et membre du Conseil de l'Europe depuis le , la Géorgie est politiquement une République présidentielle. Cependant, à l'automne 2007, le patriarche orthodoxe propose de restaurer la monarchie constitutionnelle, une idée qui rencontre un certain succès dans les rangs de l'opposition agacée par les pouvoirs renforcés du président Saakachvili. Ce dernier a indiqué qu'il est membre de la grande dynastie caucasienne, les Bagrations et a organisé sa prise de fonctions sur la tombe du roi David le Reconstructeur. Les événements d'Ossétie du Sud et d'Abkhazie ont depuis relégué cette idée au second plan.

Le pouvoir exécutif est entre les mains du président qui est élu pour cinq ans. Son successeur constitutionnel est le président du Parlement. La présidente est Salomé Zourabichvili et le Premier ministre est Irakli Garibachvili

Le pouvoir législatif est composé du Parlement de Géorgie (Sak'art'velos Parlamenti), aussi connu sous le nom de Umaghlesi Sabcho (Conseil suprême), lequel compte , élus pour une période de quatre ans, dont  par représentation proportionnelle, 75 par des secteurs d'un seul siège et  qui représentent ceux déplacés de la région séparatiste d'Abkhazie. Le président du Parlement est David Oussoupachvili.

Le pouvoir judiciaire en Géorgie a à sa tête une Cour suprême avec des juges élus par le Parlement, chargés d'examiner les recommandations du président et de la Cour constitutionnelle.

Follow us on Facebook for more great products for kids!
Our 21 month old is a big girl- she weighs over 30 lbs and is tall. When people see her, they think she is 2.5. But- she has the maturity of a not-quite-two year old. Which means that when we tried to put blankets in her room at night for her to use to cover up- she just kicked them off and woke up cold. I looked everywhere for a big wearable blanket for her, but came up with nothing. I was SO excited to find the Gunapod because it comes in big sizes and is super cute. But it also… wait for it… WORKS! Here's why we love it.
It's warm. I was struggling to keep baby warm. Since she started wearing the Gunapod, her naps last three hours instead of two, and she has been sleeping an hour later in the morning. She's happier, I'm happier, the rest of the family is happier. I will be buying more just based on that alone.
It's easy to clean. The Gunapod is made of bamboo- which is anti-microbial. It's also easy to wash and dry in the washer, so I just throw it in with the bed sheets and go.
You can purchase Gunamuna right from their online shop! They are also available on Amazon (affiliate).

The Luxury Duvet would be very great to help keep my grandchildren warmer, and it easy to clean because it is machine washable, too.
The Luxury Duvet is like a deluxe down comforter with silky soft spandex and bamboo-laced viscose rayon around the fill, snd a channel stitch to keep the fill from shifting, to give a perfect night's sleep for my nieces and nephews.
The environmentally friendly bamboo fibers have incredible softness that are amazingly breathable, moisture wicking and antibacterial for my grandchildren's benefit.
The Luxury Duvet would provide an ultimate sleep experience for my nieces and nephews, and is a luscious wearable blanket that comes in a wide range of sizes.
