By Jeff Burkhart Verified| Marin Independent Journal Verified Some years back, it was suggested to me that I might try some meditation to relax. In those days, I was working at nightclubs, often getting off of work at 3 a.m. It was difficult to come down after that because “last call” was always the busiest part of the night. It would be go, go, go all night and then at the end it was really GO!And then it would all stop. 2 a.m. and it was all over. After cleaning up and counting money, it’s 3 a.m. and you’re wide awake.
By Jeff Burkhart Verified| Marin Independent Journal Verified People, it’s all based on the moon: the paschal moon. Passover and Easter are the original moveable feasts, based on a series of mathematical approximations, an astronomical chart, the full moon cycle and an equinox. Since it’s all science and mathematics, they should always line up, right? Wrong. Because they both then are further based on human-created calendars — two different calendars, as it turns out, meaning that the possible dates can vary by more than a month.

Marin Independent Journal
THE IJ'S ROOTS in Marin go back to March 23, 1861, just before the Civil War engulfed the United States. The first edition of the weekly Marin County Journal published that day had four pages, printed one at a time on a hand-operated press. In October 1957, the newspaper completed a building in downtown San Rafael that more than doubled the size of its plant. In January 1981, a new chapter began when the IJ moved from downtown San Rafael to southern Novato, just west of Highway 101. In 2010, the IJ was honored by the California Newspaper Publishers Association as the best newspaper of its size in the state. In addition to the award for General Excellence, the IJ also won top honors for Freedom of Information, best Opinion pages and best editorial cartoon. In August 2011, the IJ moved to its current location, near the Marin Civic Center in Terra Linda. Today, the newspaper continues to publish in print, online and via mobile device. This combined reach gives the IJ its largest audience ever.
