Natural Allergy Relief- local honey

I thought this was a great tip I want to try this Spring.

5. Local honey : It is recommended that you start eating about 1-2 teaspoons of locally grown natural honey before the allergy season starts. Bees are known to collect pollen from local plants. Therefore honey is known to have some low levels of pollen, and taking it before the season helps your body to get use to some pollen level in advance before the full blown season strikes.

After a bike crash Lance Armstrong will be in surgery for a broken right clavicle (collarbone). This will be a major setback to his training for the Tour de France this summer. Follow his twitter for his updates.

Gnome in NYC

Here's a quick photo tour of NYC highlights with Trevor. Fun stuff, that day.

Impressions

I saw the play Impressions on Saturday in NYC. Jeremy Irons and Joan Allen at the Schoenfeld Theatre. Lots of beautiful paintings, love right in front you, and a joyful ending.

waking up

People might say, "Have you found Jesus?" or "Have you received God." or something like that.

Now, I see it more like waking up from a dream were you thought you were alone. More accurately, I don't think we find God or that he finds us. I think we realize he's there. (Not that God is a "he".) We dawn to the conception, and also to the experience, of a Reality we didn't accept or encounter before. And then we realize God really is everywhere, holding it altogether, and we were either too childish, or too blind to see it. God is not something we get to hold in our hand, or even in our mind all that well–receive or acquire–it's a journey of consciousness. Awakening. (And a gift of grace.) And it is a continual progression into deeper levels. Especially if we can be brave.

Woe, No-ah Way.

Back in the day, they thought Noah was crazy. Johan Huibers in the Netherlands is getting similar reactions. Like Noah, he thinks he's on a mission from God. His ark replica (scale model) is 3/4 of a football field long, and he offers rides along the local canals.

In England they throw desserts

English Business Secretary was smacked with green custard. Very nice. Why don't we do this in the U.S.A.? Do we take food too seriously? What dessert items should be tossed toward U.S. Tres. Sec. Geithner? Banana Creme pie perhaps? Any ideas?

See the video of Lord Mandelson's getting walloped.
