    Holy Innocents Food Pantry News

    Things are about to get really interesting at Holy Moly, my small Episcopal mission parish that I love so well. For one thing, we’ve got a new vicar, and the old one has a new job, and this all happened really quickly. For another, we totally changed our service time to 9am. It’s the tag end of summer, and attendance hasn’t been very good, so the time change could potentially be really damaging. But. I talked to a reporter earlier this week. 😉 The supplemental food pantry we started last Christmas during Advent has slowly been gaining ground, and in…

    Utah Senate Race: Swiping Signs and Sneaking Seniors Out After Hours

    Pete Ashdown’s Campaign Journal � Sign War It appears that the “sign war” has begun. Last night, all of our signs in the Salt Lake Foothill area magically disappeared, including a 10 foot banner that was zip-tied to a brick wall. All of the signs, including the banner, were on private property. Equally magical is the fact that Republican signs have suddenly appeared in the same area. I wonder what my sisters have to say about this? One of them lives in the Foothill area. And what about this item? Interestingly, Republican Party County Chairman James Evans who had presided…

    Paragraph By Paragraph: Obama Rules, SA Health Minister Not So Much

    Senator Obama says to get African HIV test?|?Health?|?Reuters.co.uk CAPE TOWN (Reuters) – Barack Obama, the only black U.S. senator, criticized South African leaders on Monday for their slow response to AIDS and said he planned to be tested for HIV while visiting Kenya later on his African trip. I love Obama. But it still shocks me that he’s still the only black senator. That is so, so wrong. I hope that he’s not alone come the first Wednesday in November. Is anyone else black running, from either party? South African AIDS activists say Health Minister Manto Tshabalala-Msimang has created confusion…

    Anderson window installation …one done

    UPDATE: The window installers worked like dogs yesterday and got all but one set of windows downstairs and the patio doors installed, and then stayed until 730pm clearing out debris and vacuuming more thoroughly than…uh… more thoroughly than the housekeeping staff generally do around here. 🙄 They’re here again, right on the dot of 8am, just as promised. We have a lot of touch-up repairs to the window edges – plastering or spackling will need to be re-done where it fell off the metal strips on the inside of the windows, and it will need to be painted. And, guess…
