Open my lips, O Lord,* and my mouth shall proclaim your praise.
Had you desired it, I would have offered sacrifice,* but you take no delight in
burnt-offerings.
The sacrifice of God is a troubled spirit;* and a broken and contrite heart, O God,
you will not despise.

Prayer of Saint Francis – Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Lord, make me an instrument of Thy peace;
where there is hatred, let me sow love;
where there is injury, pardon;
where there is doubt, faith;
where there is despair, hope;
where there is darkness, light;
and where there is sadness, joy.O Divine Master,
grant that I may not so much seek to be consoled as to console;
to be understood, as to understand;
to be loved, as to love;
for it is in giving that we receive,
it is in pardoning that we are pardoned,
and it is in dying that we are born to Eternal Life.Amen.

May God bless you with a restless discomfort about easy answers, half-truths and superficial relationships, so that you may seek truth boldly and love deep within your heart.
May God bless you with holy anger at injustice, oppression, and exploitation of people, so that you may tirelessly work for justice, freedom, and peace among all people.
May God bless you with the gift of tears to shed with those who suffer from pain, rejection, starvation, or the loss of all that they cherish, so that you may reach out your hand to comfort them and transform their pain into joy.
May God bless you with enough foolishness to believe that you really CAN make a difference in this world, so that you are able, with God’s grace, to do what others claim cannot be done.
And the blessing of God the Supreme Majesty and our Creator, Jesus Christ the Incarnate Word who is our brother and Saviour, and the Holy Spirit, our Advocate and Guide, be with you and remain with you, this day and forevermore.
AMEN.
Let me bless almighty God,
whose power extends over sea and land,
whose angels watch over all.Let me study sacred books to calm my soul:
I pray for peace,
kneeling at heaven’s gates.Let me do my daily work,
gathering seaweed, catching fish,
giving food to the poor.Let me say my daily prayers,
sometimes chanting, sometimes quiet,
always thanking God.Delightful it is to live
on a peaceful isle, in a quiet cell,
serving the King of kings.
As with any new thing I learn, I’m really excited about this… I made bagels! Real, delicious, WARM cinnamon-raisin bagels. They are just like any bagels I could have bought at the store, except with the added benefit of having been just about free (we bought a TON of flour earlier in the year, and I’m working through it… that’s why you have so many pictures of delectable breadstuffs to look at throughout this blog).
n.b. The recipe says “Bread Machine Bagels” but all of the combining/kneading was, as always, done by hand! mmhmm.

There’s a trend that has emerged in web design, specifically web apps made with an iPhone interface. Take for example anything made using Google’s iui. They all pretty much want to look like the iPhone’s own interface. Which is nice… but what if there was something different?
Here are some sketches I did of a possible interface for a free WiFi community in Montreal, IleSansFil, to adapt it to the iPhone. The necessary functions are:
And because of the fact that ISF is a non-profit, some other important ones are
Below is the first one I did. After a few minutes of working on it, I realized I didn’t like it AT ALL! It looks too much like a computer, looks too much like the “home page” on the iPhone, and lacks creativity. Also, this was without putting any cool effects in.
This is the second version… the benefits, I think, are a nicer feel. I love the contrast of a wooden background with the sleek industrial design of the iPhone, while still having a glossy “web 2.0″ look with its buttons and gradients. Also, the open, table-like surface allows multiple buttons in any configuration, without being confined to a grid. And the buttons are round, like fingers. I don’t know if this means anything, but it sounded right in my head. I’d love to set this up to actually work, but all the background coding is beyond me, or rather I don’t want to put in the effort to learn it all at this point.
Other ideas for this webapp:
New Year’s Eve
We decided to have a TV-Free New Year’s Eve, so we made our own ball-drop video. Amy and Sacha told me I should have had the ball dropping DURING the countdown, but I think this is funnier this way!
I’m going to start working out at Concordia’s gym again.

Rilo Kiley – The Moneymaker
This video is really interesting: I mostly hate the new Rilo Kiley album, because I don’t like the music very much, compared to ALL of their previous music. But seeing this video puts into perspective the commentary that they’re trying to make on the effects of the sex/porn industry on both women and men on both ends of the lens/wallet.
