Happy July 4th. I shall make hamburgers with sliced beefsteak tomatoes, onions, and red-leaf lettuce. With barbecue beans, and lemonade (make that lime-ade). I'll have to skip the banana split or the ice cream sundae with a cherry on top, or apple pie a la mode---I am still on a chronic-condition re ...

Over the past year I’ve really seen ways I can honour and respect my father, and I have reaped great rewards from doing so. Asking his opinion on things and finding out what are his likes and dislikes. Sometimes it’s quite humourous. I’ve enjoyed learning from him, mainly about how to build things, ...

I would love to talk to some people (preferably in New York) about the importance of summer solstice observances. What happens during these events, why is it a special night, and how do such observances differ from the summer solstice? Contact— Organization: — Deadline: Jun 16, 2009 05:00 PM EST

There is so much that it represented by it that it would and does take volumes of books to discuss it. As entrepreneurs and free marketers, we need to be the ...
