Reading Western accounts of Taoism may lead you to wrongly believe that it is an austere philosophical way of life. But, in its day to day practice, it is far from this. The religion is full of gods who may be worshipped with incense, fruits, and money. The temples are big and shiny, full of numerous subsidiary gods. The Temple of the City God (Chenghuang Miao, 上海城隍庙) in Shanghai is a glittering example. Every walled city in China would have its city god temple: the word cheng means wall and the word huang means moat. Shanghai got its temple during the reign of the Yongle emperor in the 15th century.
We had missed seeing this on our first visit to Shanghai three years ago. Local tradition holds that if you haven't seen Chenghuang Miao, then you haven't seen Shanghai. So this time we paid for our tickets and breezed through the busy temple. The main city god seems to be Qin Yu Bo, a 14th century bureaucrat declared to be the protector of Shanghai when the Yongle emperor decreed the construction of this temple. Signs in English are few, and I managed to figure out only the city god and the pantheon of wealth. But all the statues were very impressive (see the gallery above for photos of a few).
The temple was apparently shut down during the Cultural Revolution, and was renovated and reopened only in 2006. There was such a large throng of worshippers, that I did not dare to approach any of the monks to ask about the statues of immortals and gods. This was probably lucky, because I later read that the monks are notoriously bad tempered. If you want information on the Taoist gods then the internet is full of explanations.
Monks, bad-tempered? Not a great advert for their faith!
Aren't monks always bad tempered? I'm always surprised when I see a friendly one. Priests, on the other hand, tend to be friendly (and business friendly).
Really? The few I've encountered over the years have always been, as expected, full of grace.
Thank you. I'm skim-read it and bookmarked it for later. Fascinating stuff.
I have found few friendly ones too. Didn't see bad tempered ones but grumpy ones yes. But some have been talkative and friendly too.
This particular temple was closed when I arrived there and so I had missed it.


This is perhaps the favourite Italian way of using hazelnuts, in a celebratory sweet that makes its appearance towards Christmas, and at festas from north to south. It can be made with almonds as well, or a mixture, as here. Eat as a sweet after a meal – or whenever you like!
Line two baking sheets with rice paper.
Put the sugar and honey into a large, heavy-based saucepan, and melt together gently. When melted, raise the heat slightly and cook until the sugar turns a light brown in colour. Add the orange zest and stir for a minute with a wooden spoon. Add the hazelnuts and pistachios, and stir together until the nuts are coated with syrup.
While still warm, cut the sticky mixture into whatever shapes you like – cubes of about 4cm square are best. When completely cold, break the croccante into pieces, and store in an airtight jar.

The authentic taste of India lies in its ancient history, geography, historical monuments, arts and cuisines. The magic here is such that some left with reminiscence and others remained here forever. Traveling in India offers varying geography; mountains and alpine forests in the far north, Sistine waterfalls and charm valleys of Kashmir, desolate and vast desert of Thar, beautiful coastal beaches of Goa, tropical lowlands of Bengal and its freely prowling Royal Bengal tigers, exotic country sides of the south and the great historical cities of Delhi, Agra, Rajasthan, Patna and so on. It provides tranquility for anyone looking for a great holidaying experience. Every corner of the country offers a completely different experience, try giving it a Shot? From the spicy cuisines of North India to more of a simpler dine of Southern India; the flavor differs in every region.

Methadone withdrawal will be called for sooner or later, after methadone maintenance or a pain monitoring program utilizing methadone has begun. If your feeling oppressed by having to go to a Winfield AL center or a pharmacy daily as well as undergoing heck if you want to travel, there is an escape.
Methadone use produces a numb feeling to living, substantial tummy troubles as well as physical dependency that defeats all others; that's the short list. All kinds of various other health problems that methadone use produced are exposed as soon as beginning methadone withdrawal. I'll provide you some answers to help now, and additionally services to deal with the problem to ending methadone dependency forever.
Addictions physicians and also discomfort monitoring facilities in Alabama are seriously suggesting methadone for opiate misuse and also chronic discomfort, yet just what are the consequences of methadone usage? I've noted numerous listed below. If you have actually already tried Methadone withdrawal and also had problems, I have actually got some help you wouldn't have actually located in other places.
Once it is time to begin methadone withdrawal, many individuals are having BIG troubles finishing their methadone usage. How does one withdraw from methadone in Winfield Alabama? What obstacles will they need to overcome?
The fact is that several addictions medical professionals and also discomfort administration specialists in Winfield are acting upon the referrals from their peers as well as experts. They are not informed of the deaths because of recommended methadone use neither the problems that often happen when taking out from methadone use.
Vital: extensively research study medicines or drugs on your own before you acquire or take them. The results could be terrible. They likewise could have unsafe interactive results when taken with other medications.
Numerous if not all of methadone impacts are caused by nutritional deficiencies. Methadone usage creates nutritional deficiency – particularly calcium as well as magnesium depletion. An additional is B vitamin deficiency. This is how these shortages are manifested.
Methadone withdrawal will need a lot of additional nutritional supplementation. That indicates it's time to feed the body. Calcium and magnesium will certainly assist with the constraining etc. But there will certainly be some difficulty many will certainly have taking their nutrients – a bad digestive tract.
Methadone as well as anxiousness meds tend to ruin the digestive tract cellular lining. A leaking digestive tract provides pains when eating or allergic reactions, vulnerable to health issues and also skin problems. Another signs and symptom of a leaking digestive tract is impatience and a 'bad attitude'. The attitude can have physical reasons overlooked by the individual.
A great pointer to helping the digestive tract problem is eating lots of high quality yogurt with real-time probiotics in it, like acidophilus and bifidus. One could additionally supplement with huge quantities of glutathione – an antioxidant to aid the detoxification procedure.
The quantity of nutrients required throughout methadone withdrawal is undervalued so commonly that I shake my head in marvel.
The trouble with methadone is that it is poisonous to the body. Your body understands it, but you may not. Taking methadone challenges your body organs to purify the body and protect the essential body organs prior to they are badly damaged.
Contaminants give the body a difficult time. If you have actually seen drug users with dark circles under their eyes, grey skin, poor skin, hair falling out, low power, odd ailments, and so on they're obtained dietary shortages. Those shortages are hard to recuperate from with food alone. Occasionally that food isn't really being correctly digested = poor intestine.
Cleansing the body is more than simply stopping drug use. Substance abuse produces interior body damage you could not immediately recognize. However, the body will attempt to cleanse right after substance abuse as well as heal itself utilizing any type of nutrients available. If the nutrients aren't offered, the body will certainly borrow (steal) them from the bones, nerves or other essential functions.
Some will require medical detox from methadone – the problem is that most Winfield methadone detox centers don't use nutritional supplements as part of their program. They just give more medications, and often not the right ones. The lack of full understanding on Methadone detox creates a brutal scene to withdraw from.
The bright side is that I have actually found the tools as well as the detoxification centers in AL that can beat methadone withdrawal efficiently as well as easily.
Winfield is a small city situated in Northwest Alabama 26 miles (42 km) east of the Mississippi state line. It lies in the foothills of the Appalachian Mountain range which stretches from the deep South all the way to Maine. Long before the earliest settlers arrived, Indian tribes hunted in the forest and fished in the streams and along and around Winfield. The town was originally called "Needmore", but when it was incorporated in either 1887 or 1891, the name was changed to Winfield in honor of General Winfield Scott. This area was once the Chickasaw Indian domain. Although there were no known Indian settlements within the county, several sites were maintained as hunting camps.
Winfield is located in southern Marion County at 33°55′42″N 87°48′29″W / 33.92833°N 87.80806°W / 33.92833; -87.80806 (33.928258, -87.807990), with a portion extending south into Fayette County. U.S. Route 43 passes through the city, leading northwest 6.5 miles (10.5 km) to Guin and south 18 miles (29 km) to Fayette. Hamilton, the Marion County seat, is 20 miles (32 km) northwest via US 43.
Winfield has a subtropical climate characterized by hot, humid summers, mild winters, and abundant rainfall during the late winter and spring. January sees average daily high temperatures of 53.0 °F (11.7 °C) and lows of 31.8 °F (−0.1 °C). In July, the average daily high is 90.6 °F (32.6 °C), and the low is 69.2 °F (20.7 °C). Snowfall is infrequent in the area, with a yearly average of 0.5 inches (12.7 mm). The average yearly rainfall in Winfield is about 52 inches (1,300 mm), with March being the wettest month and October the driest.


During the early Monday Asian session EUR/JPY hit a high of 124.49, last seen on May 12 of 2016, helped by Macron's victory in the French presidential election.
However, it saw a subsequent retracement, due to profit taking, falling back below the psychological level at 124.00.
On the 4-hourly chart, EUR/JPY broke through the near-term major uptrend line support, indicating the bullish momentum has been waning.
The current price still holds above the psychological support level at 123.00, where there is stronger support.
If the downtrend further breaks this level it is likely that it will see an extended falling in price.
The daily Stochastic Oscillator reading is above 80, suggesting a pullback.
The resistance level is at 123.40, followed by 123.60 and 124.00.
The support line is at 123.00, followed by 122.60 and 122.30.
Keep an eye on ECB Governor Draghi's speech at 12:00 BST on Wednesday May 10. It will likely affect EUR and the EUR crosses.

The Book of Longings is a Masterpiece
By Maureen Charles , on 07 November 2020 03:13
Our Brain Candy Book Club has been reading Sue Monk Kidd's The Book of Longings: A Novel. And it's getting rave reviews from the whole group.
The premise is what if Jesus had a wife? The Book of Longings is written in the first person from the main character Ana's point of view. And yes, Ana is the wife of Jesus, but she is much more.
Longings is not a religious treatise; rather, it is an emotionally evocative work of fiction that explores the life of a woman, who longs to write, living in an age when very few women were literate and even fewer had the freedom to choose their own path.
As always, Kidd's writing is fresh, sensual, and lyrical, and her deep historical research is evident. Ana is a beautifully drawn character – in turns willful, rebellious, kind, and passionate. Her voice drew me in from the very first sentence and kept me turning the page.
In her author's note, Kidd writes: "The day Ana appeared, I knew one thing about her besides her name. I knew that what she wanted most was a voice. If Jesus actually did have a wife, and history unfolded exactly the way it has, then she would be the most silenced woman in history and the woman most in need of a voice. I've tried to give her one."
Kidd tried and succeeded.

Books About Ruth Bader Ginsburg for Children of All Ages (including you!)
By Maureen Charles , on 02 October 2020 08:09
* From Baby Feminists by Libby Babbott-Klein and Jessica Walker.*
Looking for a book for introducing a young person to the Notorious RBG? Or maybe even a quick, entertaining read for yourself? Here are some of my favorites in order by age group. Happy reading! - Mo
Baby Feminists by Libby Babbott-Klein and Jessica Walker – a lift-the-flap board book for ages 0-3. Lift the flap to discover what femnist icons Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Mae Jemison, Frida Kahlo, Barack and Michelle Obama, Gloria Steinem, Dorothy Pitman Hughes, Billie Jean King, Yoko Ono, and Malala Yousafzai might have looked like as infants and toddlers.
I Look Up To…Ruth Bader Ginsburg by Anna Membrino and Fatti Burke – a board book for ages 2-4. Part of the "I Look Up To.." series that introduces babies, toddlers, and preschoolers to inspiring women.
I Dissent: Ruth Bader Ginsburg Makes Her Mark by Debbie Levy and Elizabeth Baddeley – a picture book for ages 5-9. This was the first picture book about RBG, and it's my favorite. It introduces children to the power of dissent and speaking up for justice while also showing that you can vehemently disagree with someone and remain friends.
Ruth Bader Ginsburg: The Case of R.B.G. vs. Inequality by Jonah Winter and Stacy Innerst – a picture book for ages 6-9. "Ladies and gentlemen of the jury: During this trial, you will learn about a little girl who had no clue just how important she would become." Justice Ginsburg's story is presented in the form of a court case. And it's a page turner.
Notorio us RBG: The Life and Times of Ruth Bader Ginsburg - Young Readers' Edition by Irin Carmen and Shana Knizhnik – a 200-page, full-color edition for ages 8-13. Cheeky, fun, full of pop culture references, photos, and illustrations.
Becoming RBG: Ruth Bader Ginsburg's Journey to Justice by Debbie Levy and Whitney Gardner – a graphic novel biography for ages 10 and up. A compelling and empowering, cinematically rendered portrayal of the life of RGB from shy child to Supreme Court legend. If you enjoy graphic novels as much as I do, you'll love this one.
Dissenter on the Bench: Ruth Bader Ginsburg's Life and Work by Victoria Ortiz – a biography with black and white archival photos for ages 13 and up. Each of the ten chapters highlights one court case alongside one aspect of Ginsburg's life, from her childhood to the influence of her faith on her work to her judicial career. Readers also get a better picture of how America's legal system works, and how cases reach the Supreme Court. A 2020 Sydney Taylor Honor Book.

People are always asking me what books they should gift to the young people in their lives. So I am going to use my book review space to recommend books for children and teens. I will create lists of fiction and nonfiction, spanning a variety of genres and interests, for all ages.
Let's start with babies. Most of us are aware that reading to newborns is integral to their development, but many of us don't know of a single title published after Good Night Moon.
What books could you take to a baby shower or suggest a pregnant couple add to their gift registry?
Here's a list of beautifully written and illustrated read alouds crafted with the kinds of words, rhythms, concepts, and illustrations that delight and engage wee ones.
First, I recommend any and all books written by Mem Fox. She is masterful. My favorites include:
Hello Baby!
Time for Bed
Other titles, authors, and illustrators I love:
Everywhere Babies by Susan Meyers and Marla Frazee
If Animals Kissed Good Night by Ann Whitford Paul and David Walker
Little Poems for Tiny Ears by Lin Oliver and Tomie dePaula
On the Night You Were Born by Nancy Tillman
Where, Oh Where, Is Baby Bear? by Ashley Wolff

I received a wonderful surprise today but not one I am allowed to bring home! Read on to find out what my surprise was….
Sunday 28th January sat under my mosquito net feeling very tired from my journey out to Uganda yesterday, a sleepless night and a very enjoyable but exhausting day with my friend Richard (not his real name) and his lovely family. I met Richard on my first visit to Uganda in 2002. He 'showed me the ropes' so to speak and helped to sow the seeds for my love of Uganda and its people. Richard is now married to Kevin (a lady!) and works for a Ugandan charity that helps children orphaned by Aids and they often have a houseful! In 2008 they had a child of their own and I was very honoured that she was named Gerry Mukisa (Blessed!). Two years later Caleb was born but unfortunately he contracted measles and died at only a few months old. Then in 2013 Amazing Grace (they call her Amazing!) brought much joy to the family and she is turning into a wonderful bundle of mischief who loves to dance! Permanently living with them are Dorcas 11 and Hope 9. They also have children staying for short periods of time while they find foster homes.
This morning I had the usual welcome from the children, especially Gerry Mukisa. Her little sister Amazing hid for a little while unused to a white face though Richard had been showing her photos of me. In fact there is one on their wall of me with the whole family a couple of years ago and Amazing insists that Gerry Mukisa is her! Now I am telling you all this as it is connected with my surprise! Shortly after I settled on their sofa crowded in by the children who were singing to me, Richard asked Kevin to go and fetch my surprise. The children went all coy then giggly. I wondered what on earth this surprise could be. Kevin came in carrying my surprise, their new baby son Jedi, I think short for Jedidiah! I am so pleased for them as they were so devastated when little Caleb died.
My surprise – Baby Jed!
Kevin and the older girls cooked a lovely meal while the younger ones took me to see their other additions to the family, piglets, lots of them! After lunch they asked for a game of dominoes which they know I always carry with me. I have given them a set but I doubt if they use them, they make up their own games.
Before I leave they always like to perform for me, singing and dancing. Traditional and modern, some learnt, some made up, just like our children in the UK. I found it hard to keep a straight face watching Amazing trying and often succeeding to keep up with her big sisters! I hope to put some video on YouTube. Enjoy!
They love to sing and dance!
Mum Kevin shared out the fizzy Haribo from the UK – love the expressions on their faces, and then it was time to say goodbye for another year!
Mum Kevin shared out the fizzy sweets. Love their expressions!
The day I first introduced Hope and Gerry Mukisa to fizzy sweets!
Oh yes I forgot to say. There are posters everywhere of all the candidates for the national and local elections and several were stuck to Richards house. I asked him who he would be voting for and he pointed to the poster. It took a few seconds for me to realise who the photo on the poster was – it was him! He was too serious for me to recognise him! He will make a great Local Councillor!
I'm not sure how to add YouTube video clips so I think you may need to copy and paste them!
HAPPY NEW YEAR from UGANDA!

Heads, limbs and plausibility go bye-bye as a soundtrack of phat beatz bludgeons away in this homage to classic kung-fu cinema, written and directed by rapper, producer and Wu-Tang Clan merchandise seamstress RZA. In a jungle village, the confusingly named Jungle Village, where the hip-hopper strains – unconvincingly – to play a humble blacksmith, named Blacksmith, an old chap, Gold, is offed by his crooked henchmen, Silver and Bronze. A knife-brandishing English soldier, named (groan) Knife, turns up, oh, and there's a big bloke who can turn his body into brass, and he's named Brass Body, and … no, sorry, this is pointless.
Ben says: There's no doubting RZA's long-held passion for chopsocky – but he hasn't created a film. This is as authentic as glupping Red Bull with Sushi Train. This is his indulgent mess of a wet dream. And it's utter wank.

How Do I Know Which San Diego Venue Is Best for my Event?
At Stylehawk Event Services, our primary business function is sourcing sport event venues with sport event promoters. In reality, we are bigger than that though. Venue sourcing typically leads to event management or general contracting work as we provide our event clients with a turnkey solution to event operations, event logistics and venue management. Even still, it is a pretty specific niche we fill.
The reason why our services are in demand and why we have such a high repeat and referral rate, despite having a narrow focus, is because sourcing sport event venues is a labor intensive process. Venue sourcing requires a deep Rolodex and relevant industry experience. By outsourcing the event venue management work to us, event promoters are able to focus on the elements that best support their specific event goals.
Schedule: Is the venue available when you need it? Most sport event venues have "anchor tenants." Understanding the seasonality of core programming and booking priority is essential.
Cost: Will this venue fit in your budget? Every venue quotes rates a little differently. What is being included or left out when making budget considerations? Is there flexibility on pricing? Can services be cost engineered (yes!)?
Location: How does the location serve the event? How far will people travel to an event?
Capacity/Size: Can your event fit in the space (too much or too little)?
Amenities: What features of the venue are important to your event? What do you need to have? What would you like to have? What can you live without?
Staff: Can the venue support my event needs? Will working with this venue be too troublesome (we can help offset this)?
San Diego has some great event spaces and our responsibility is to provide our clients with a curated list of venue possibilities. By evaluating each of these dimensions, we are able to streamline the venue selection process, thus saving time and money. As we go through this process, we see that what is ideal for one event may be a terrible fit for another.
Schedule: Peterson Gym is home to SDSU Women's Volleyball. The NCAA women's volleyball season runs from August through November. Most collegiate (and high school) gyms host both women's volleyball and men's and women's basketball. This means the anchor programming eats up available inventory (calendar days) from August through March. Because SDSU basketball games are not played in Peterson Gym, there is some availability from November through March, which is critical for indoor event space.
Cost: Peterson Gym is on the campus of a public university. Because of the campus mission, space rental costs are kept reasonable. Also, it is a large gym that affords some of the benefits of an arena without an arena price tag.
Location: San Diego State is a central location to most of San Diego County. Additionally, the on- campus location affords a few other advantages. Access to parking, neighboring facilities (Aztec Center and Viejas Arena are across the street), potential marketing opportunities to students, and access to campus resources are some of the benefits of the location.
Capacity: Peterson Gym has seating for 3,000 people. There is a ton of demand for event space that can host 1,000- 3,000 people with fixed seating and honestly, not a lot of buildings that can do it. The arenas in San Diego all have a seating capacity of 5,000+ which means (a) they come at greater expense and (b) they would dwarf many events.
Amenities: Peterson Gym has retractable bleachers which allow some flexibility in event design. It also has an exterior courtyard that can be used for pre-function space, vendor set up or ticketing processing. This, combined with the benefits of location (specifically the proximity to the amenities in Aztec Center) and size, creates lots of opportunity.
Staff: Another benefit of the San Diego State location is that there is an experienced conference services team that can help execute on an event concept. Furthermore, public universities are self-supported communities that have most of the necessary infrastructure on site. Parking, facilities/maintenance, risk management, and crowd management are supported by dedicated professionals who understand the campus environment.
I've used a lot of similes when talking about my work with Stylehawk. We are like a real estate brokerage managing a portfolio of listings. We are like a golf bag using each of our featured venues as appropriate. With so many variables to manage, securing an ideal events venue can be challenging.
I love researching these buildings, taking site visits and talking with the operators. In The 4- Hour Workweek, Tim Ferriss said, "It is far more lucrative and fun to leverage your strengths instead of attempting to fix all of the chinks in your armor… Focus on better use of your weapons instead of constant repair." This is the principal Stylehawk was founded on. Event venues are our strength and we will continue to sniff out San Diego facilities that meet the needs of event promoters.
Cameron Ungar, President of Stylehawk Event Services has been managing, booking and scheduling sport event venues and public assembly facilities for more than a decade. He has worked in university, municipal and private venues and has an impressive track record of developing organizational structure, building powerful operations teams and driving significant event revenue. He is an active member of the International Association of Venue Managers (IAVM) and is an Adjunct Professor in the Sports Management Graduate Program at the University of San Francisco.

German Chancellor Angela Merkel is welcomed by European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker at the start of an emergency European Union leaders summit on immigration at the EU Commission headquarters in Brussels, Belgium June 24, 2018.
BERLIN - German Chancellor Angela Merkel said on Tuesday she would fight for an orderly Brexit right up until Britain's planned departure from the European Union on March 29.
Merkel, asked whether she was ready to offer British Prime Minister Theresa May a new Brexit deal, said she "noted with interest" a ruling by the speaker of parliament that May must change her twice-defeated divorce deal to put it to a third vote.
"Now, we will see what Theresa May says to us, what her wishes are - we will try to respond to those," Merkel added, speaking at a conference in Berlin.
"We will follow very closely how the British government reacts to what was said yesterday in parliament," she added. "As to how deal with the situation, I can't assess how it will be (at an EU summit) on Thursday - there is far too much in flux."
In a move that added to the sense of crisis in London and exasperation in European capitals just days before the March 29 exit date, Speaker John Bercow shocked May's government on Monday by ruling it could not put the same Brexit deal to another vote unless it was substantially different.
"I will fight until the last minute of the time to March 29 for an orderly exit," Merkel said. "We haven't got a lot of time for that, but still some days."
Asked if she would be prepared to grant Britain a delay to Brexit, Merkel replied that she wanted to have very good relations with Britain even after Brexit.

We are open most Saturdays!
Our fees are designed to be affordable to make Chiropractic and Acupuncture care accessible to as many people as possible.
We offer a wide range of appointment times, from 8.20 am through to 7.30 pm, lunchtimes and most Saturday mornings.
Please phone the Exeter Clinic on 01392 22 11 22 for more details.
Because pain can strike at any time we normally keep a number of appointments free each day so that you can be seen as quickly as possible.
There is no substitute for the correct advice. The sooner you are seen, the sooner you will feel better.
Many people's first reaction to pain is to apply heat packs or cold compresses to the area. As a rule of thumb, if you are suffering from a new or sudden onset of pain, applying a cold pack to reduce early inflammation is best.
If you have an old (chronic) injury, the application of warmth to improve circulation and loosen tissues is preferred.


It's been a crazy weekend. First the U.S. draw Slovenia 3 to 2. Then this bear shows up at our picnic table (super polite, but still). Then, we headed to Catalina Island to meet up with my family. Point being, time has been scarce, and so are the words in this post.
This meal could solve the world's problems?
Pawson and Bell write: "Deceptive in the innocence of its appearance, this is clean, sharp, and richly flavored with lemon and Parmesan. The cry is for a crisp green salad to follow." And how. I recommend arugula with a simple dressing of freshly-squeezed lemon juice, fresh lemon zest, olive oil, salt and pepper.
Bring a large pan of salted water to boil, add the spaghetti and stir to separate the strands. Cook until just tender. In the meantime, put the wine and lemon zest in a small saucepan, bring to boil and reduce by half.
Once the spaghetti is just tender, drain it into a colander, but not too thoroughly, then return it to the saucepan. Toss with the reduced wine mixture, the heavy cream, lemon juice and grated Gruyere or Emmental. Season liberally and cook over a high heat for a minute or two until the sauce thickens enough to coat the pasta. Serve right away, scattered with freshly grated Parmesan.
This looks like a delicious summer meal.
US got JOBBED! This pasta is my FAVE!
OMG - I am so going to make this!!! It reminds me of the simplicity of Spaghetti Aglio e Olio but with just a bit of extra love for those days that you need it or crave it! Thanks for sharing.
oh man...ain't nothing in the world a lil creamy pasta can't fix.
dawn: you're welcome! Love that Spaghetti Aglio e Olio too.
Yum Yum! I read the recipe this morning and made it for dinner tonight. It didn't disappoint. Not only was it as delicious as you promised (arugala salad and all) we also managed to discover how to end the war in Iraq, how to save our education system, and what to do about pesky bears sitting down at your picnic table for lunch (offer him a plate, naturally). Thanks for always bringing the best with a laugh.
courtney! that made me smile--so glad you enjoyed!
oh man oh man! i want this now! perhaps I will cook this on monday night and eat while I CONTINUE to watch ali fedotowsky on her quest for love!
This is a perfect Friday night dinner...I think I'm going to make it tonight! I'll let you know...xo!
I've made this several times now (making it again tonight) so amazing!! Really yummy!!
Made this tonight and loved it!

Q: Do you need to watch the 1997 film Bean, or the orignal TV series, to understand the plot?
Last week i took the girlfriend to see '300', this week it was her turn to pick the film... her choice... Mr Beans Holiday. I wasn't too impressed with this but fair is fair! I couldn't remember much of the first film but wasn't expecting to be blown away or enjoy it to be frank! However i was pleasantly surprised and am not ashamed to admit i enjoyed it. Don't get me wrong, this is no classic but it is a enjoyable film. The first thing i liked was the fact it wasn't set in America, so i didn't have to listen to a number of Americans try to explain who this Mr Bean character was! I didn't laugh out loud, but I did chuckle along at the jokes and enjoyed some of the darker aspects such as the mobile phone gags! When i saw Karel Roden pop up early on in the film i chuckled to myself as he filmed the camcorder... thinking back to the film '15 minutes' (if you've seen it you'll understand what i mean) This helped me loosen up and allowed me to enjoy the film. Also loved the whole Carson Clay in love with himself film moment near the end.
I loved Black Adder, but was only a Mr Bean fan when i was very young, as an adult i have to say i'd grown out of it! This however made me reminisce and remember how good a comedian Rowan Atkinson is! The director also deserves credit too, as he keeps this story nicely edited through-out and lets the adventure unfold at a nice pace. Mr Beans love interest also deserves credit for being very easy on the eye! I won't go on about this film much, but basically don't just cross it off as something you'll hate. This is a loving, nice, and light-hearted affair, though strange in places it fits itself as a film that is good enough to sit through and enjoy. So if it's a rainy day sit back, relax and watch! A basic film comedy for all the family!

Parked in Desert, Waiting Out the Winter of Life
NYT December 17, 2004
By CHARLIE LeDUFF
[Continuing in my coverage of ways to keep down the cost of providing for
those made unemployable by robots. I still want to know what standard of
living social justice requires that productive pay the unproductive.]
SLAB CITY, Calif. - Directions to purgatory are as follows:
from Los Angeles drive east past Palm Springs into the
bowels of the Mojave Desert. Turn south at the stench of
the Salton Sea. Proceed down Highway 111 to the town of
Niland, a broken-down place of limited possibilities.
Turn left on Main Street and head down the road to the
railroad tracks where the law sometimes waits, as though
the tracks were an international boundary.
"Where you going?" asked the deputy, Frank Lopez, on a
recent night, even though the road leads to just one place.
The Slabs.
Bored stiff, the deputy spun a ghost story about
drugged-out crazies, a cult in a blue bus, a child
molester, a man who sleeps with rattlesnakes, a mobster on
the lam, and old people, flocks of old people who have
traded in their picket fences for a mobile home and a life
on the drift.
"The best thing to do," he said, "is to turn around."
Five miles down is the sign, "Welcome to Slab City,"
marking the entrance of this former World War II military
base. The only suggestion of life this night was the
flickering of campfires. At a makeshift mission, some men
stood around a fire, casting silhouettes with a vaguely
sinister feel.
Among them was the pastor, Phil Hyatt, who shared some
coffee and a few paraphrased biblical passages. The
Pentecostal preacher excused himself and shambled back to
his trailer. First the shoes came off, then the coins went
on the nightstand. The bedsprings creaked and then he
cried.
Pastor Hyatt, at 69, has inherited the burden of living.
His wife, Audrey, died this year after suffering a stroke
here in the desert wasteland. The memory of her scent is
"Ah, he's lonely, and it's tough to see it," said Rusty,
73, who sat at the pastor's fire, warming himself. Rusty
looked and smelled like a bum - the price paid, he said,
for freedom. "Nobody particularly wants to die out here in
the desert, but the living's free."
Slab City is not so sinister as it is a strange, forlorn
quarter of America. It is a town that is not really a town,
a former training grounds with nothing left but the
concrete slabs where the barracks stood. Gen. George S.
Patton trained troops here. Pilots of the Enola Gay
practiced their atomic mission, dropping dummy bombs into
The land belongs to the state, but the state, like the law,
does not bother, and so the Slabs have become a place to
park free. More than 3,000 elderly people settle in for the
winter, in a pattern that dates back at least 20 years.
They are mostly single, divorced or widowed - a whole
generation on the road, independent, alone. In this place,
to be 55 years old is to be young.
There are no amenities; no potable water, no electricity,
no sewerage. Groceries can be picked up in town at the
grubby market whose managers do not seem to mind that
hundreds of people fill their jugs from the water tap. Mail
is routed to a post office box - Niland, CA 92257. Gasoline
is bought in distant towns like Brawley; prescriptions and
liquor are bought in Mexico. Sewage is held in storage
tanks or holes in the ground.
The north side of Main Street is Poverty Flats. The south
side, the suburbs, where the relatively well-to-do
motorhomies have their dinner dances and clubhouse
trailers.
Cole Robertson lives in the Flats with his wife, Mabel. Mr.
Robertson, 72, is a retired construction worker from East
Texas who cuts an intimidating figure, sitting shirtless,
with one rheumy eye, a watermelon physique and a cotton
fields vocabulary. An argument with a neighbor last year
ended with one of the Robertsons' trailers in flames. That
is how law is dispensed in the Flats, vigilante style. One
man was dragged to death a few years ago, another shot in
the kneecap last year. Occasionally, the deputies do come
around, usually in the day to exercise a warrant or to
remove children who have not been seen in school for
months. But normally, justice comes at the end of a
matchstick in the Flats.
"There ain't no rules," Mr. Robertson said. He told of his
neighbors, an aging man who lives with his voices in the
rundown bus, a geriatric transvestite, a no-good who
strapped his kid to a tree and left him in the sun.
A few years ago, a man tried making scrap metal from an
unexploded aluminum shell he found at the bombing range in
the nearby Chocolate Mountains. He succeeded but at the
cost of his own life. His legs had to be picked from a
tree.
It was in this anarchy, eight years ago, that Pastor Hyatt
stumbled upon his life's purpose. He discovered the Slabs
quite by accident. He and Audrey had packed up their whole
life, sold the house in Lebanon, Ore., left their jobs at
the titanium plant where he was a shift foreman, said
goodbye to their children and to their obligations and
struck out on the road.
He was not always a good man, he admits that. He had a
temper and hard fists. But he came across a band of rolling
revivalists that first year on the road, and followed them
to Minnesota. He was ordained by the World Wide Ministries
without ever studying at seminary and seems a little
embarrassed by this.
Stuck near Niland, the pastor inquired about a place to
camp in an R.V. for the evening. A stranger told him about
the Slabs, five miles down the road.
Upon seeing the privation and sadness and isolation, the
preacher and his wife believed that the Creator had given
them a second life. They built the Slab City Christian
Center out of modular housing and began to preach and feed
October through April, when the weather is clement and the
Slabs come to life.
When people were found dead in their trailers, the pastor
and his wife were there with a Psalm. They gave children
rides to the hospital. The Hyatts paid for the work from
their life savings. But Audrey was felled by a stroke in
February and passed in May.
When she died, the pastor's self-assurance faltered and he
found that he had become one of the lost, emotionally
stranded with one foot in hell and the other on an ice
cube.
"I didn't really understand before how much I needed this
place," the pastor said. "I need it especially this year.
Rusty. Rusty's been a good man to me."
The pastor and Rusty make the most unlikely of friends. The
pastor, a clean-cut man with a bristly haircut and clean
strong hands. Rusty, the doubter who cleans his shirt once
a week in a bucket. Rusty, who tells about a prepubescent
military career. Rusty, whose smell and language come from
the stables. Rusty, who came in on a bus and says he ran a
militia out of this camp for 12 years in case the Mexicans
invaded from the south or the F.B.I. from the east.
"Everybody can't fit in to the middle-class life," said
Rusty, who wore a military shirt and cap, military boots
and long fingernails as thick as seashells. Suffice it to
say, Rusty does not want people to know him and does not
disclose his last name.
The evening was cold and dark, the air thick with the
smells of burning salt oak as Slab City went to sleep. A
Frank Sinatra record played somewhere across the salt
flats. The thunder of bombs clapped on the far side of the
Chocolate Mountains. Rusty smoked by himself in his
broken-down camper with the flat wheels and camouflage
netting. A lamp burned in the pastor's trailer.
Rusty talked about a daughter who did not want anything to
do with him; a wife he reckoned was working a truck stop
somewhere between California and Texas. But Rusty is human.
He dreams of a rich woman from the south side of the Slabs.
They wear makeup, those girls over there in the R.V.'s.
They use toilets instead of buckets. They have class. It's
never going to happen, he says. "I'd love to have company,
but I can't dance anymore," he said. "I got old legs, but
I'm a good conversationalist. But those women over there,
they're stuck up. Middle-class stuck up."
The senior citizens on the south side of town travel in a
sort of lonely-hearts club tailgate. They are alone, having
suffered a late-life divorce or the death of a longtime
partner. Their vehicles are big, expensive Coachmen and
Fleetwoods and Ramblers and the like. They work as a sort
of neighborhood watch, and the denizens of the Flats do not
cross the imaginary line.
The majority of the society is women. They come to the
Slabs because it is free and close to Mexico, where liquor
and prescription medicine can be bought cheap. They are
educated, savvy about life and competent mechanics.
Donna Lee Cole is a member of Loners on Wheels, a rolling
singles club with chapters across the United States. Mrs.
Cole says there are at least 10,000 people who belong to
this subsociety of aged hobos, people who drive around in
search of nothing except tomorrow. They tend to be women,
she said, because women live longer than men.
Her first marriage ended in a bad divorce. Her second
husband, David, died of cancer 11 years ago. She waited for
the children to insert her in their lives, but the children
were living their own. She waited for the telephone to ring
and it never did. So she cashed it in and hit the road.
"I decided I wasn't going to watch my life waste away," she
said as the afternoon social began to congeal and the old
men emerged from their trailers hitching their belts over
their navels, wiping their lips with their forearms, coming
on with dopey smiles as they approached Mrs. Cole for their
daily squeeze.
Though the group's motto is where singles mingle, there is
little physical love, much to the complaint of the men.
"Most of us are from a family that used to be," explained
Mrs. Cole, 61, a petite widow from Alpena, Mich., with
bobbed blond hair.
"I'm thankful for a place to go, but I'm sad to end up like
this," she said at the club's evening happy hour, where two
ladies were playing a guitar and an accordion. She eats
dinner alone in her own R.V. with all the amenities, the
water and septic tanks, the stove, solar panels,
television. She is never home for Christmas, and the
children receive a check that says "Love Grandma." She
never drives in neighborhoods with houses that have bars on
the window, and if things get especially tough, she parks
at the local police station. Her life is her own, she says.
Generally, it is good.
"We women aren't looking for a man," she explained. "The
divorcees walked away from a bad situation and don't want
another one. The widows draw Blue Cross and their husband's
Social Security and would lose it if they married a new
man. So you don't bother. You're just looking for some
company."
Besides, Mrs. Cole says, look at the quality of men, no
offense. "They're bald and paunchy and toothless. I'm old,
but I'm not dead.
"If a Mr. Right came along, well then, I suppose."
lonely-hearts clubs have happy hour and social mixers,
dances twice a week and trips to town for steak dinners.
Still, the Elvis generation goes to bed early and goes to
bed alone.
"I was married 46 years," says Tina Faye at the afternoon
mixer at the L.O.W. slab. At 80, Mrs. Faye strikes an
exotic figure, lean, rouged, coiffed, with a voice as thick
as apricot nectar.
"My man told me to go on if I was to outlive him. So I took
to the road. But I feel him sitting there right next to me.
I can't let him go."
The mood is a bit sad until Ruth Halford, a
74-year-old-widow with a silver permanent, pipes up. "I'm
not sad about anything. I don't owe nobody nothing. I
scratch my plans in the dirt. I'm not looking for anybody.
The only person I'm in love with is me. Right, girls?"
This is maddening to the eligible bachelor, like a dog
chasing a pork chop on a string. A waste of a perfectly
beautiful woman.
"Those girls, they get to being independent and they don't
need men," said John Clairmont, 77, a retired truck driver.
"You can never get them to come home with you."
The evening dissipated. The sun set a violent red. The
lonely hearts played cards and listened to the old records.
The gossip went around the tables.
The pastor's wife was one topic. Mrs. Cole promised to go
see the pastor on Sunday and take him soup. "Such a shame,"
she said. "They were together a long time."
Mrs. Cole and the pastor would make a handsome couple,
someone said with real feeling. The others agreed.
In the morning, Pastor Phil awoke alone, put his change in
his pocket, put on his shoes and shared coffee around his
fire. Rusty was there. So were others from the north side,
the stumblebums and the alkies.
The pastor talked about random things from his life with
his wife. The snowstorms and eggs in a rooming house. The
smell of her hair. Ceramic snowmen she collected. Her face
lighted by the dashboard lights. Recipes the children do
not ask for. Grandchildren who, chances are, will not
remember her name. Death in the desert in some nameless
place without longitude or shade.
"That's the tragedy of old age," the pastor said as his
eyes welled once again. "I'm alone. I'm derelict without
her."
Rusty stared at his feet. One guy asked for 20 bucks. An
old transvestite drove by and waved.

If you are not familiar with estate planning trusts, you may be intrigued by them and want to learn more. Although trusts are often thought of as being only for the rich and famous, they have become much more accessible in the past few decades. Thanks to the Internet, you no longer have to know an attorney to learn about the Spendthrift Trusts and Dynasty Trusts referred to in movies.
Despite how much information you can find about trusts online, you may still have trouble understanding how trusts work if you have never made or administered a trust. This article provides an overview of trusts and how to access information on the different types of trusts used in estate planning.
When you create a trust, you execute a trust document. The next step is to transfer title to all property you wish to hold in the trust into the name of the trustee of the trust. For example, Jane Doe makes a living trust on March 1, 2019 and chooses to be the original trustee. As the original trustee, she will take title to trust property as Jane Doe, trustee of the Jane Doe Living Trust dated March 1, 2019.
When a married couple makes a living trust, they may choose to be the original co-trustees of their trust. For example, John and Mary Smith make a living trust dated March 1, 2019 and are the original co-trustees. They will take title to trust property as John Smith and Mary Smith, trustees of the John Smith and Mary Smith Living Trust dated March 1, 2019.
In most living trusts, the person making the trust is named the original trustee during his or her lifetime. However, the maker of the trust must name one or more successor trustees to administer the trust after their death. Many people name their adult children, siblings, other relatives or close friends to serve as successor trustees. If you do not know who to name as trustee, an alternative is to use a trust company as your successor trustee.
Although the trustee holds legal title to trust property, the trustee cannot use the property for his own benefit and must only use trust property for the benefit of beneficiaries of the trust. The trustee is a fiduciary and must adhere to certain standards. For example, when investing trust assets and managing the trust portfolio, the trustee is held to certain standards of conduct. For an overview of what this entails, review the trustee investment duties.
Any property you want held in trust for the beneficiaries must be properly transferred to the trust. This means you must change the title to such property from your name to the trustee of the trust. This process is known as funding the trust. This may include executing trust transfer deeds to real estate, changing the title on bank accounts, and taking other steps to ensure your assets pass through the trust instead of through probate. Property that is properly transferred to your trust will ultimately be distributed to the beneficiaries according to the provisions of the trust document and applicable law.
If you form a revocable trust, you will have the option to revoke the trust and transfer the trust property back into your name. If you form an irrevocable trust, you will not be able to get the trust property back and it may only be distributed according to the terms of the trust. Always discuss the consequences of transferring assets to an irrevocable trust with a lawyer before making the transfer. If you make a revocable living trust, the trust becomes irrevocable when you die.
After you set up a trust, circumstances may arise that cause you to want to terminate it. The trustee or successor trustee of a trust may also determine there is a need to terminate the trust prior to its natural expiration. Depending on the type of trust involved, there are different steps to take. See how to terminate a trust for more information.
This article on trusts was updated on March 21, 2019.
1. To avoid the time and expense involved in probate of your estate.
2. To maintain privacy for you and your heirs and prevent certain financial information about your estate from becoming public through probate.
3. To take advantage of tax planning strategies that are associated with certain types of trusts.
4. To control the timing, amount or manner of distribution of the gift or inheritance your children, grandchildren or other heirs will receive.
5. To provide financial security for individuals you name as beneficiaries of the trust. See Debts Trust Beneficiary.
6. To achieve charitable goals that are associated with certain types of trusts.
7. To obtain asset protection advantages associated with certain types of trusts.
Not everyone needs an estate planning trust. Even if a trust is recommended for your situation, it may not be right for you if you cannot commit to following all the steps involved in funding and maintaining an estate planning trust. You should have a good understanding of what is involved in funding and maintaining a trust, as well as the alternatives to a trust, before spending money to make a trust. If you want to know some of the steps you will need to take to administer an estate planning trust, review our page on trust administration.
Understanding beneficiary designations is also essential when considering whether you need to make a trust. Before deciding to make a trust to leave an inheritance to someone, review your financial assets and evaluate what your beneficiaries will receive from your pay on death bank accounts, life insurance, annuities, pension, and other retirement accounts. You may also want to compare the lump sum inheritance they may receive from these accounts compared to the distribution options you can structure with a trust.
Taking the proper steps to create and fund an estate planning trust is not cheap. Trusts are typically used by people that have accumulated enough assets that they can afford to spend money on an estate plan. While you can purchase estate planning software to print a living trust document without an attorney, it is generally not recommended. This do it yourself approach is likely to result in many errors that could result in your living trust being invalid or improperly funded and could result in your property passing as if you died without a will. If you are interested in making a valid trust, you will need an attorney.
a. The type of trust. For example, a simple living trust typically costs less than a complex tax saving trust such as a grantor retained annuity trust or a dynasty trust.
b. The size of your estate. If your trust only includes your primary residence and a few financial accounts, it will probably cost less than a trust which includes vacation homes and rental properties in several different states.
c. Your estate planning objectives. For example, if you want a very straightforward trust that leaves property directly to your beneficiaries with no restrictions, it will cost less than making a trust which has specific milestones for the timing and amount of distributions or complicated restrictions on how trust funds may be spent.
d. The type of attorney you hire. Hiring a solo practitioner to prepare your estate planning trust usually costs much less than hiring an attorney that works at a large law firm.
If you hire an attorney to prepare your estate planning trust and complete all the associated paperwork, such as trust transfer deeds, a pour over will, etc., be prepared to spend a few thousand dollars or more. Some attorneys will charge less, while others will charge much more. There are several steps you can take to reduce the cost of making an estate plan. To learn how, see finding an attorney.
There are many types of trusts that can be created to serve a variety of different estate planning objectives. Types of trusts include pot trusts, special needs trusts, minor's trusts, Crummey trusts, funeral trusts, QTIP trusts, charitable trusts, and pet trusts. Trusts may also be created for purposes of asset protection and for other reasons as well. Because each type of trust has its own set of advantages and disadvantages, it is important to understand which one will meet your specific objectives before you pay to establish a trust. To learn about the unique features of different kinds of estate planning trusts, review our summary of Other Types of Trusts.
Because there are costs involved in setting up, funding, settling, and closing a trust, make sure you have an understanding of the paperwork and fees involved in having a trust before you let someone talk you into making one. A common estate planning mistake is establishing a simple living trust as soon as you become interested in making an estate plan, only to find out later that a more complex type of trust would be better suited to your situation. To avoid having to revise your estate plan by making a new will and trust after you learn about all the options available, consult with an experienced estate planning lawyer that can provide a comprehensive review before recommending a particular type of will or trust.
For information on a type of trust that may be included in a last will and testament, refer to our section on Testamentary Trusts.

Are your technicians certified and trained?
Yes, we have certified HVAC technicians and Certified Filter Service technicians through the NAFA certification program.
Why would I use a filter service company?
Aside from creating better air quality, using us to service your filter needs will save you time and money. Regular filter maintenance reduces strain and wear on your heating/cooling systems, which reduces dust and dirt on your inventory. This also reduces the amount of labor in "dusting" the store inventory and reduces risk of injury to your employees who would have to climb on the roof for the filter maintenance.
Does Filter Service of St. Louis carry my size of filter?
How does changing my air filter create a healthier work place?
Our filters retain 86% of all dust and dirt. A fiberglass filter retains only 10%-20%. Cleaner air equals better health because the pollutants that circulate in an office space are filtered out. Employees are not breathing recycled air anymore.
Does Filter Service of St. Louis provide frames for the filters?
Will the same technician always service my business?
The service schedule is dictated by the environment the filters are being exposed. Restaurants and Convenience stores, for example, are some of the more harsh environments with cooling and traffic with doors open constantly. These environments require a great deal of unit run time to maintain desired temperature. Our service schedules are every 4 weeks, every 8 weeks or 12 weeks (Quarterly). We would recommend a service schedule at the time we do your proposal.
