University of Northern Colorado officials said Wednesday that they will continue to post the names and pictures of people banned from the school to the college's website, despite complaints about the practice.
UNC president Kay Norton said the posting was the best way to balance student safety with an open campus.
In an e-mail sent to students and staff, Norton said the list, first posted Friday, identified 24 people as personae non gratae for a variety of reasons. She said the designation doesn't mean those listed are necessarily dangerous, "just unwelcome on our campus because they have violated our code of conduct."
Some of those banned complained about a link on the college's home page to the list, which says: "Read about how the University of Northern Colorado is responding to the Virginia Tech tragedy," the April 16 slayings of 32 people by a student.
The UNC list violates their privacy rights and defames them, several said, by putting them in the same category.
"I am really stressed out about this. People are assuming I'm dangerous," said former student Brittany Bethel, 21, of Loveland. She said she suffers from the eating disorder anorexia nervosa and "passed out at the UNC rec center" last fall and was taken to the hospital. She said that she apparently violated the school's honor code "by being a danger to myself."
Norton said in her message, "I assure you that we do not issue persona non grata orders because of someone's medical condition."
UNC spokesman Nate Hass said that any listing was a result of conduct, not illness.
Bethel said a February incident in which she was cited for misdemeanor assault in Fort Collins had nothing to do with her UNC suspension in September.
"A nurse at the hospital was grabbing my arm, and I pulled away," Bethel said. "The DA told me I didn't need to worry about it anymore. That's being dropped."
The case is pending in Larimer County Court.
"This is a healthy discussion," Norton wrote about reaction to the website. "However, we do not and will not talk about individuals who receive persona non grata orders."
One person on the list, former football team member Mitch Cozad, is scheduled to stand trial in July on counts of attempted first-degree murder and second- degree assault. Cozad allegedly stalked and stabbed a team rival in a Sept. 11 ambush.
Another student listed, Stephen Belcher, said he would fight the public posting.
"I don't think it's fair. It's a violation of my privacy rights," Belcher said.
Paul Seabrooks, who also was named, said he was expelled from UNC because he did not attend a campus hearing, on his attorney's advice, regarding criminal charges that were subsequently dismissed.
"I was innocent all along," Seabrooks said. "I've moved on. But UNC putting up our names and photos doesn't surprise me. The administration has absolutely no honor."
Norton said the posting "includes public information that UNC police have long used to monitor our campus."

Mysterious cause of LED 'droop' identified, could lead to more efficient LED lights
LED Mystery solvedIf you increase the electrical current sent to a LED past a certain point, the amount of light produced will go down rather than up. This property of LEDs is called 'droop', and until recently scientists and engineers didn't know for sure why it happened. This made it hard to find a workaround, but now the riddle has been solved by a group of researchers from the engineering department of UC Santa Barbara and from CNRS-École Polytechnique in France. They have "conclusively identified Auger recombination as the mechanism that causes light emitting diodes (LEDs) to be less efficient at high drive currents."
Knowledge gained from this study is expected to result in new ways to design LEDs that will have significantly higher light emission efficiencies. LEDs have enormous potential for providing long-lived high quality efficient sources of lighting for residential and commercial applications. The U.S. Department of Energy recently estimated that the widespread replacement of incandescent and fluorescent lights by LEDs in the U.S. could save electricity equal to the total output of fifty 1GW power plants. (source)
It's a very exciting time for LEDs, with prices dropping fast and new breakthroughs popping up in labs around the world. Hopefully multiples advances can be combined to make super-efficient LEDs. Can you imagine if Philips 200 lumens/watt white LEDs could be made more efficient with this droop discovery? This would make a big difference since all around the world lighting residential and commercial buildings accounts for a significant portion of all electricity used.

This made my day too. That was easy. Is there any plan to make this kind of thing more easily know-able? I'm not sure I ever would have figured that out except by asking. I suppose I might eventually have thought to start walking through the gconf keys, but it'd be nice to have some more obvious place to look for questions like this. For example, if all gconf keys and their meaning were in a file in /usr/share/doc/(whatever package), one could easily search through that file to find settings that aren't otherwise accessible from the GUI preferences.

The worst possible scenario almost happened.
Almost. A small but powerful word.
In the span of six letters, almost can cause grief, worry, general consternation, and downright panic.
The legal adventure of adoption for my wife, son, and me is a perfect example.
Almost Stuck
First things first, the major part of the adoption process has gone off without a hitch. Our birthmom, who happens to be my cousin, has been great from start to finish with this whole thing.
I would be dishonest if I said I never had a doubt about her backing out — I did.
But this doubt had nothing to do with her and everything to do with me. Let me explain…
When we started this adoption journey, I started reading all about other adoption stories. And, for whatever reason, I was constantly drawn to the worst case scenario stories. Here are a few examples of the types of stories I read:
- Birthmom and adoptive parents come to an agreement before the child is born. Just before the birth, or just after, the birthmom changes her mind.
- The birthmom and adoptive family make and agreement and the child is placed with the adoptive parents. But the birthfather wants to exercise his rights a few months down the road and the horrible scenario of adoption litigation begins.
- And most relevant to our current situation, an adoptive family is doing an inter-state adoption and gets stuck away from their home due to some paperwork issues.
So when I got a phone call from the social worker we hired in Nevada in which we learned that there were some paperwork issues, I got totally freaked out. I started imagining all the worst stories that I read about months ago.
I even started to coach myself through the issues involved with being stuck here. At least your with your wife, son, and mother-in-law, all of whom you love, I told myself. Maybe you can figure out a way to stay with some of your family in town? It could be worse, after all…
Of course my wife and I (and many others) prayed. But when faced with what seems like a looming disaster right around the bend, it's hard to be as confident in God's leading as you'd like to be.
The worst almost happened.
The Flipside of Almost
Luckily there's another side to almost. There's the good news.
Our good news came in the form of another phone call from the Nevada social worker and an email from the California adoption agency. Both of them assured me that all the necessary paperwork has been processed and approved. We can go home!
We almost got stuck…but we didn't!
We get to return home!
In just a matter of a few hours from the time I'm writing this, we'll be on the road undertaking a 5-hour road trip with a new born. Nothing problematic about that!
I wonder what might almost happen on this leg of our journey!

78 Recruits Sworn In As Probationary Police Officers; City will have 92 New Police Officers on Streets by July, With Another New Class of Recruits Slated for August 2008
BUFFALO – Mayor Byron W. Brown and Police Commissioner H. McCarthy Gipson today welcomed 78 new police recruits to the Buffalo Police Department. The new recruits, comprising one of the largest in the history of the Buffalo Police Department, took the oath of office during a public ceremony at the Buffalo Academy for the Visual and Performing Arts attended by hundreds of friends and family.
They join two former BPD report technicians (RT's), who will be a part of the new police class, making the total class size 80 Probationary Police Officers. The RT's were sworn-in during a ceremony in November 2007. In addition, twelve former BMHA police officers, who were sworn in as Buffalo Police Officers on November 19, 2007, have completed their training and are now deployed to duty within the Department. The next BPD recruit class is scheduled for August 2008.
"On behalf of the residents of the City of Buffalo I want to commend all of you for coming together as one of the largest rpolice classes in Buffalo's history," said Mayor Brown. "You are also representative of the quality of our city's residents, having gone through probably the most comprehensive vetting process ever. You are also part of a group of future Buffalo police officers who will strengthen and increase the overall size of the city's police force by 92 new police officers by this coming July, with more to follow in August."
With the ceremonial swearing-in, the new probationary police officers will begin a state mandated training Monday morning on the ECC-North Campus. The training lasts about six months and will conclude in July 2008. The 18-month probationary period for each new officer includes the 6-month training period.
At the academy, the recruits will be trained in many areas including firearms, first aid, defensive tactics, community relations and legal issues.
"This is one of the best vetted classes of recruits in the history of the Buffalo Police Department," said Commissioner Gipson. "They've cleared the initial hurdles including drug, medical and psychological training and testing. I stressed to the recruits that they must be mindful that this is a professional endeavor of the highest order. I am confident they will be an excellent class of police officers."
The 80 new recruits bring the number of Buffalo Police Department Officers to approximately 800.

An opinion piece by Space Settlement Institute president Douglas Jobes appeared in the May 2005 issue of the American Astronautical Society (AAS) Space Times magazine. The article, "Lunar Land Claims Recognition: Designing the Ultimate Incentive for Space Infrastructure Development," examines the need for very significant financial incentives to jumpstart the space infrastructure that will be needed before a permanent lunar settlement can be constructed.
The article opens as follows: "While the National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) often interfaces with the private sector, government cannot - and should not - be expected to bear the entire burden for developing space.
"NASA's primary focus is exploration and discovery. That means a comprehensive approach to space development depends on finding ways to make space profitable for private industry - if possible, convincing corporations, institutions, wealthy individuals, and venture capitalists to invest billions of dollars in space."

Vibration Analyst
Record vibrations of equipment to determine if there is a problem.
What does a Vibration Analyst do?
A Vibration Analyst detects the early precursors of machine failure. The work a Vibration Analyst does allows machinery to be repaired or replaced before an even more expensive problem occurs. If you're a Vibration Analyst, you diagnose misalignment, imbalance, mechanical looseness, eccentric shafts, gear wear, broken teeth, bearing wear, loose rotor bars, and poor end turn connections. This kind of analysis can be applied to any type of equipment that rotates, such as electric motors, fans, machine tools, paper machines, turbines, conveyor belt drives, pumps, air-compressors, motor-generator sets, reciprocating engines, rolling mills, and mining equipment.
Basically, all kinds of rotating equipment vibrate, even if it's just a little bit. But as the bearings age, they vibrate more and more. What you look for are those distinct vibrations that exceed the normal for that particular machine.
Much of your work is done using vibration analyzers, which are connected to the rotating machinery and record vibrations using sensors. The recordings are then transferred to a computer where you analyze the results with a special program. You compare the vibrations over a timeline, and when you notice a significant change, you contact the Vibration Technician. They fix the problem, and prevent the issue from becoming a full-blown disaster.
This method of monitoring expensive equipment keeps costs down for manufacturing agencies because you sidestep repairs and part replacements when none are needed. Moreover, you spot problems before the equipment completely breaks down.

DIY: Two Tone Chunky Chain Necklace
I'm back in LA and back to the business of being crafty. I really enjoyed the time I spent in NYC last week. I left feeling very inspired. Everyone in that city is already extra fancy, but the added pressure of Fashion Week brought out all the fashion fabulosity. I couldn't help but notice that chunky chain necklaces were a popular look on the streets of The City. Recently, celebs like Rihanna have been spotted rocking the chunky chain and even I got with the program and took my vintage chunky chain necklace for a ride. This trend was the inspiration behind this super easy two tone, two chain DIY project.
Materials: Two Chains, Lobster Claw Closure, Jump Ring, Plyers
Use a pair of plyers to attach the two chains.
There are two tricks to making this project a success: 1.) Be sure your chains will lay flat and 2.) make sure that your chains are the same. I picked two chains that are the exactly the same just different colors. Most jewelry supply stores sale the same chain but in a variety of colors (i.e. gold, silver, etc…). I purchased this chain from M&J Trim. They have a nice selection (here) but chain can be purchased anywhere.
Use your plyers to attach the jump ring to the last link. Attach the lobster claw closure to the jump ring.
Connect the closure to the opposite end of the necklace to secure.
This project is all about options. You can create as many different color combination necklaces as you wish! Silver 'n black or silver 'n gold or gold 'n black. Or if mixing the metals isn't your thing you can create a fab solid gold, silver or black necklace. There's also the option of finding/ painting a colored chain like pink or neon yellow. Oh the options!!!!!
Top and pants are from JCPenny (available here and here).

Doctoral Project Abstract
Howard Hammett
Regent University
There are multiple 'influences' that come into play to shape an Executive's behavior and perceptions in their struggle to be an effective leader. These influences are at best unbalanced, wrought with countless paradoxes; while some of these influences are based on misguided myths. For example, does effective leadership focus on being through or being decisive? Is effective leadership 'values-based' or 'results oriented'? Can an effective leader be grounded in day-to-day business objectives while simultaneously focused on future opportunities? And what criteria or which baseline do we use to determine 'effective leadership'? Can leadership be measured through hitting performance metrics or does leadership need to encompass a 'greater good' in order to be truly effective? Understanding and evaluating these influencers may prove beneficial in developing our understanding of effective Executive leadership.

Reviews forChipped Beef on Toast
My Review
Average Rating
"I didn't even notice this was a microwave recipe, so I made it on the stove. I too usually find this to be too salty, so I just soaked the beef in water for a minute and squeezed excess water out before chopping and putting in gravy. Came out perfect :)"
"I haven't made this for years and today my hubby suggested it. He had always liked this. I add a little worcestershire sauce for flavor. Great on a cold day."
"Absolutely delicious!"
"I remember when my grandma made this for me as a kid and I loved it!! I have been searching for this recipe for awhile and was so excited to find it on here!! It is just like a blast from the past!CBarnes"
"I like to add chopped onions and parsley. It is good over biscuits or toast."
"I love this recipe--I tried it the first time it was published--that issue of quick Cooking is permantly bend open to this page.It's super easy and fast. I remember when Mom made this for us kids, I was the one to always stir the white sauce. As a kid it always seemed to take forever to thicken. This is fast and none of the extended stirring."
"My mom used to make big batches of this except she'd replace the chipped beef with diced hard-boiled eggs and then add a spoonful of miracle whip. As a kid we loved it when Mom made creamed eggs on toast for supper."

Ruble Rises as Investors Look to Putin, Geneva for Ukraine Clues
The ruble strengthened for a second day as investors awaited comments from President Vladimir Putin and politicians in Geneva on the crisis in Ukraine.
The ruble advanced 0.1 percent against the dollar to 35.9465 by 11:09 a.m. in Moscow. The yield on Russia's ruble debt due February 2027 fell five basis points to 9.14 percent.
Putin, who holds a televised question-and-answer session with the public today, has been getting appeals for help from eastern Ukrainians alongside questions about why Russia isn't taking action, his spokesman, Dmitry Peskov, told reporters on April 15. Four-party talks on a possible resolution of the Ukrainian standoff will be held today in Geneva.
"The ruble is waiting for Putin's session with the Russian public," Vladimir Miklashevsky, a strategist at Danske Bank A/S in Helsinki, said in e-mailed comments. "He has been calming the markets with his recent speeches during the Ukrainian crisis, so markets mostly expect same impact today."
The ruble weakened 0.1 percent against the euro to 49.7940 and traded little changed against the central bank's target basket of dollars and euros at 42.1761.
The Russian currency has pared its decline against the greenback since the beginning of the year to 8.6 percent. That's the worst performance among 24 developing-nation currencies after Argentina's peso.

Welcome to John Cohn's web home. I will use these pages to collect information on my life and projects. By way of introduction, here's a little info about me.
I've lived in Jonesville, Vermont for the last 26 year.. Before that I was at MIT in Boston with a year abroad in Vienna. I grew up… to the extent that I did in Houston,Texas=… which is why I live in Vermont. I met my wife and soul mate Diane here in 1982 .She was an engineer but changed direction and now teaches Yoga out of our house. She is the most wonderful and grounded people I've ever met… Together we raised 3 very cool boys, Max, Sam and Gabe in our old Schoolhouse in Jonesville. Max is now 20, amazingly creative and musical and grounded, Gabe is13 and a very cool and colorful snowboard/skateboard/lacrosse player with an amazing sense of style.. Our beautiful son Sam was killed in a tragic traffic accident in November of 2006. At the time he was 14 . Wonderful, strong and talented. He was an excellent snowboarder and musician. (Classical guitar and heavy metal drumming)and an old soul. I can't begin to capture here what losing Sam has meant in our lives… But I will tell you this.Finding ways to honor his memory and living the example he set have made us all better people.One of the thing we do is hand out 'SamStones' Our family and friends make these fired clay stones in Sam's memory.

The group I lead helps create chips for everything from camcorders to video games to supercomputers. Though many folks may not know it, IBM designs the 'brains' inside all of the latest video game machines from Sony, Microsoft and Nintendo. I love these chips. Just getting the physics to work so that you can get a billion transistor chip to run at over 3 billion operations per second without melting is a huge challenge. In my role as one of the most senior chip folks at IBM, I get frequent opportunities to share my views on the wonders and challenges of modern microelectronics with all sorts of audiences including kids groups, parent groups,, industry peers, university students and professors, and customers. The great thing about working on these game chips is that it gives me an immediate relation point to folks whether they like computers or not.
My love of science goes way beyond my day job. I've been a science fanatic since the time I began to walk. As a young kid in Houston,TX, I had lots of role models nearby as my parents were friends with many of the NASA astronauts. With that motivation, I began taking apart everything I could get my hands on to figure out how they worked. By the time I was 12 or so I could even put some of them back together again.I built my own laboratory where I experimented with every sort of science material I could get my hands on. I did experiments in chemistry, physics, biology and math. I also learned to cut, saw, weld, solder, machine, blow glass etc. to allow me to build things like rockets, and radios, high voltage generators, lasers, telephone bugs, and pyrotechnics. My whole adolescence was about "getting dirty and blowing things up." That passion for hands-on science only grew as I went through MIT. While there I studied microelectronics by day and worked at the MIT Media Lab at night. I came to really love the overlap between science, art and culture. I began to realize how everyone could come to love (or at least appreciate) science and technology if it was presented in the right fun and accessible way.After graduating from MIT I moved to Vermont and began the job of being a 'grown up' . It didn't last long, however. I very quickly created a new laboratory in my converted schoolhouse. Since that time my experiments have gotten bigger and weirder. Over the past 25 years I have built demonstration equipment for science museums, portable science shows, science videos, TV, neighborhood 'happenings' etc.
I get a huge amount of pleasure out of sharing my love of science and my field with others. I take pride in my ability to relate science topics to any audience. I love finding new, fun and sometime outrageous ways to demonstrate a concept. Many of my demonstrations involve large sparks or an explosion; I particularly enjoy the challenge of finding ways to relate to audience outside of my profession. I'm comfortable speaking in small groups, large groups and on camera. I very much enjoy interactive presentations and love being spontaneous. In 1992 my passion lead me to launch a science outreach program called 'Jolts and Volts' which illustrates the very cool properties of electricity from microvolts to megavolts. I use this program to drive home the importance of inventors and innovation. I specifically like to encourage people to begin thinking of themselves as inventors. In this same spirit I have developed an outreach stage program called 'Inventors Like You' designed to teach kids and teachers about inventors and invention. The program shows that inventors come in all ages, races and genders. I also enjoy doing science outreach to adult audiences. I give frequent talks to parents, university professors, and museum audiences on my field of microelectronics or other topics of general science. My current favorite is a stage show I developed called 'High Tension', the Life and Times of Nikola Tesla' about the contributions of one of the world's most prolific, and most overlooked, inventors. I estimate that as of 2008 I have performed science outreach presentations for more than 40,000 kids and adults at venues including schools, museums, camps, inner city programs, special needs programs, and universities both here and abroad .I am particularly proud of the program I do annually at Disney Epcot Center. My work has been covered by more than fifty US newspapers including USA Today, the New York Post, The Washington Post and the Boston Globe as well as network TV including CNN, CBS and ABC. ('Google' john cohn" science or "John Cohn" IBM to see some references. I also need to say that feel very fortunate that my company,IBM, and my family are so supportive of the time I put into these outreach efforts.

STRUTHERS, Ohio (WYTV) — Veteran issues were front and center today in Struthers.
State Representative Connie Pillich met with Youngstown-area veterans at the Amvets Post to discuss critical issues facing the military community.
Among the things discussed were the recently revealed challenges at VA hospitals, the application deadline for the Ohio veteran's bonus, and legislation that would guarantee unemployment compensation for military spouses.
For Pillich, who is herself a U.S. Air Force veteran, taking care of vets is everyone's job.
"You know, long ago before everybody went on active duty, they signed on the dotted line and offered to give everything that they have secure in the promise that the nation would be there for them when it was their time of need," Pillich said.
Pillich said it is important that lawmakers hear first-hand from those who have served what their needs are.

Mario Ojemudia Becomes Michigan's Fourth Early Enrollee, Taking Spring CoursesApril 26, 2012
The Michigan Wolverines had three early enrollees for their spring practice sessions, and they added a fourth on Thursday when 3-star defensive end Mario Ojemudia (Farmington Hills, Mich.) enrolled for spring courses this week. Ojemudia will begin his classes on Monday.
The Farmington Hills Harrison High School star planned on joining Michigan's other early enrollees, Joe Bolden, Jarrod Wilson and Kaleb Ringer, in Ann Arbor at the beginning of the winter semester, but was unable to do so due to the fact Ojemudia's high school operates on trimesters.
"I tried to star earlier, but it didn't work out," Ojemudia told TheWolverine.com Thursday afternoon. "Right now, I don't know my class schedule or who I'm going to room with. I'm just kind of jumping into it, but I can't wait to start working out and getting to know the team."
Ojemudia currently checks in at roughly 220 pounds, but hopes that after working with Aaron Wellman's strength and conditioning staff at Michigan over the next few months that he can get his weight up to around 230 or 235 pounds.
"That's my biggest focus over the next couple months, just getting bigger and stronger," Ojemudia said. "I have to prepare myself for Division I football, so I have to get in the weight room. Anything I can do to get bigger, stronger and faster."
The rest of Michigan's 2012 signees will not be on-campus and working out with the rest of the Wolverines until June, which should give Ojemudia a leg-up when competing against his classmates.
The No. 12 prospect in the state of Michigan and No. 30 ranked weakside defensive end, according to Rivals.com, has been told by Wolverines defensive coordinator Greg Mattison that he will be playing at defensive end and could see some action at outside linebacker.
"Coach Mattison has told me that he was having me come in as a standup defensive end or outside linebacker," Ojemudia said last December. "My role would be just blitzing from both spots."
The extra workouts and practices with the team has already paid dividends for Bolden, Ringer and Wilson. All three of them earned a great amount of compliments from the Michigan staff this spring.
Chris Balas of TheWolverine.com believes Bolden is better in coverage than current staring middle linebacker Kenny Demens and that the true freshman will be one of Michigan's top linebackers for years to come.
Balas went on to say Ringer and Wilson have shown great "flashes" at times, but will need to be more consistent throughout the summer if they hope to secure a spot on the two-deep and hold off the other highly coveted incoming freshmen.
Ringer is a likely candidate to redshirt in 2012 in order to add some more size to his frame.

Netbeans gui builder - output different at run time
I am hoping someone can help me.
I am programming a GUI (and program) in netbeans and have run into a weird situation whereby what the application looks like in netbeans preview is NOT what comes out when I run the file - instead an older version of the GUI is displayed.
I include jpegs of the screen shots showing this phenomena but do not know what code I would need to include that might be an explanation for this behavior.
I have cleaned and clean and build the project and rebooted the computer but this action persists.
Please help!!

voevent-parse 0.5.3
Convenience routines for parsing and manipulation of VOEvent XML packets.
Latest Version: 1.0.2
A bare-bones, lightweight library for parsing, manipulating, and generating VOEvent XML packets.
voevent-parse is available via PyPI. See below for details on installation.
The python library lxml.objectify provides very elegant, attribute-style access to data stored in XML packets. However, dealing with the vagaries of its namespace handling requires some careful reading of the documentation. This library takes care of the details for you, so that accessing those vital data elements is as simple as:
v = voeparse.load(xml_filename) print "AuthorIVORN:", v.Who.AuthorIVORN #Prints ivo://nasa.gsfc.tan/gcn v.Who.AuthorIVORN = 'ivo://i.heart.python/lxml' #Alters the XML value.
It also provides convenience routines for common data access tasks, saving you the hassle of typing out very long attribute chains and dealing with varying formats of VOEvent.
Take your pick; options are:
- pip install voevent-parse (with a virtualenv, recommended)
- pip install voevent-parse --user (to install for current user only)
- Other development tricks e.g. symlink into ~/.local/lib/python2.7/site-packages.
If you're working with pip/virtualenv, then note that lxml has some prerequisites for compilation that can cause a standard pip install to fail with somewhat cryptic errors. On Ubuntu you can satisfy those requirements using:
apt-get install libxml2-dev libxslt-dev
I intend to mark any updates by bumping the version number accordingly. That said, if you find yourself using voevent-parse in any serious context, do drop me an email so I can keep you informed of any updates or bugs.
API reference docs
While currently quite minimal, these can be found at http://voevent-parse.readthedocs.org, or can be built from the source if you prefer the traditional python docs colour-scheme.
lxml.objectify tips
The objectify library has a few syntactic quirks which can trip up new users. Firstly, you should be aware that the line root.foo actually returns an object that acts like a list of all the children with the name 'foo'. What's confusing is that objectify has syntactic sugar applied so that print root.foo is effectively identical to print root.foo[0]. Furthermore, this can confuse access to the actual leaf values, so you should be aware of the accessor to the text representation of the value; .text, e.g.:
>root = lxml.objectify.Element('root') >root.foo = 'sometext' >root.foo 'sometext' >len(root.foo) 1 >#The string clearly does not have length==1 - it's the list. >root.foo.text 'sometext' >print len(root.foo.text) 8 >#Ah, that's better!
For some more examples, you might also try: http://www.saltycrane.com/blog/2011/07/example-parsing-xml-lxml-objectify/.
See also
Alternative parsing libraries
voevent-parse was preceded by VOEventLib, which has similar aims but a different stylistic approach (see http://lib.skyalert.org/VOEventLib/VOEventLib/doc/index.html ).
In order to receive VOEvent packets, you will require a utility capable of connecting to the VOEvent backbone. Two such tools are Comet and Dakota.
Associated utility routines
Depending on what you want to use your VOEvents for, you may be interested in pysovo, a collection of routines for dealing with VOEvents and responding to them accordingly.

Do you know I've been in the design business my whole life? I grew up in a family of designers and many principles of design and building come quite naturally to me. While fashions change over the years, the constant basics of what makes good design work remains constant. The same is true for our communication. While our message has not changed much, the way we reach our customers has. Word of mouth has always been a big player in the success of our interior design business, but with the advent of social media and today's generation's ability to access everything with the touch of a button, we find ourselves eager to share through blogs, videos, newsletters, and social networks.
We realize how easy it looks to execute design, an idea largely perpetuated by design shows that take a room from blah to ahh! in just under one hour. The reality is that uncovering a homeowner's lifestyle, tastes, and desires and executing that in a functional and aesthetically pleasing, timeless design is a process.
In order to help you get started with that process, we hope to utilize online forums to provide you with tips and tricks that you'll find useful, introduce you to members of our design team so you can find the right match for your project, and invite your questions so you can make confident, informed decisions when it comes to stylistically or functionally changing your surroundings.
We've just completed a video shoot and I'm excited to share it with you. In our first videos, I'll introduce you to Valerie Smith, who has an extensive background in construction and design, Akesha Patterson, whose passion for modern design is translated in all she does, and Juanita Hulsey, a senior designer and operations manager who has been an instrumental part of Locklear Interiors for over a decade.
I invite you to get to know these and our other outstanding designers at our YouTube Channel, peruse our website, and get in touch with us to ask questions. Please stay tuned for more upcoming video introductions. We're confident we'll pair you with the designer who can really bring your style to life!

Marks & Spencer Salted Caramel Whip
Marks & Sparks have jumped on the Salted Caramel bandwagon, yay! I must admit I was rather excited when I spotted this in M&S the other day, as was the lady next to me in the queue; "I can't wait to get this bad boy home!" she proclaimed. Some people are easily pleased, I guess!
Described as "milk chocolate filled with soft mallow and salted caramel, with dark chocolate, butterscotch and a caramel white chocolate hazelnut" this cost me 65p. Opening the wrapper I was struck by the unusual shape...it doesn't look like a regular walnut whip at all!
I first bit off the caramel white chocolate hazelnut, which was a nice mixture of savoury and sweet but nothing spectacular in and of itself. I then bit into the whip and got a nice mix of mallow, caramel and chocolate.
It tasted very nice...the milk chocolate is good quality with a nice smooth melt, the mallow is sweet and gooey and the salted caramel adds an extra sweet buttery flavour to the mix. I couldn't really taste the salt much but there was definitely a hint of it. I didn't really notice the dark chocolate much either, it got lost amongst the mix of sweet flavours.
Overall, this gets a thumbs up from me, it's a tasty and novel take on the humble walnut whip and although it's slightly lacking in the salted caramel department, it's pretty good regardless.
8 out of 10.

That looks amazing! I am going to be purchasing one of these ASAP!ReplyDelete
I saw this when I was in M&S today; they've got a chocolate fudge version too! Yum! I really want to try it but cant justify buying one when I have literally a mountain of Christmas chocolate.ReplyDelete
Just had one, yum! :-)ReplyDelete

text: Need another phone number? LineUp provides texting, photo messaging, calling and voicemail on real phone numbers that will never reveal your private information. Generate a new phone number for each occasion. Nothing will appear on your phone bill and no one will ever know your real number. À la carte, subscription-free pricing makes it economical whether you just want to send a few texts or establish a long-term number for your business. LineUp is quick, cheap, and private -- get new numbers when you need them, lose them when you're done. We will never sell your data or show you ads. Instead, you pay a fair price each month for your number, then buy messaging and calling credits as you need them. Our customers tell us that this is cheaper in the long run than other services since your credits don't automatically expire if you don't use them. Oh, and we will never automatically charge you, so you stay in control of all costs! ------------------------------- Why Do You Want a Second Number? * Privacy - Never give out your real number when you don't want to * Protection - Protect yourself when posting on Craigslist or using online dating services * Business - Why pay a lot for a new business number? Just use LineUp! * Local presence - Get a phone number in any area code in the US * Fun - Find numbers by area code, location, or pattern -- 1-555-YOURNAME could be yours ------------------------------- Why LineUp? Each LineUp number has: * Text and photo messaging - Send and receive messages with any US number * VoIP calling - Make and receive calls from anywhere in the world using your internet connection * Phone calling - Use your phone line to make calls when you have no internet connection * Call forwarding - Forward incoming calls to another number, or answer them in the app * Options - Block all incoming calls, direct them to voicemail, or let them through * Custom Voicemail - Voicemail for each number, with separate custom greetings * Device support - Use LineUp on any iPhone, iPad or iPod Touch with an internet connection * Worldwide support - Use LineUp to get a US number, then use it from anywhere in the world * Pricing that makes sense - numbers are renewed monthly but calling and texting credits roll over each month, do not expire, and are yours until you use them ------------------------------- Where can I use LineUp? LineUp is available worldwide, but currently only provides the ability to purchase, use, text, dial and forward to US phone numbers. If you live outside the US, you can still use LineUp, but you may be limited to VoIP and messaging functionality only, and you can only call or message US numbers. ------------------------------- PLEASE NOTE: THERE ARE CERTAIN NUMBERS THAT YOU CANNOT DIAL USING THIS SERVICE, INCLUDING BUT NOT LIMITED TO 911, OTHER EMERGENCY NUMBERS, AND CERTAIN PREMIUM NUMBERS. FURTHER, BECAUSE THIS APP REQUIRES INTERNET ACCESS FOR FULL FUNCTIONALITY, THERE MAY BE TIMES WHERE CALLS CANNOT BE COMPLETED. ------------------------------- Is my privacy really protected? Yes! When using LineUp, no one will ever know your actual phone number. However, we will comply with legal requests for your information should we receive any, so please be responsible. ------------------------------- What is the pricing structure? * We will never automatically charge you for anything * 1. Pay each month if you want to keep your number. Done with it? Just don't pay and it will automatically expire. Or delete it right away, it's up to you. 2. Purchase calling and texting credits separately. These roll-over monthly, do not expire, and are good for any of your LineUp numbers. This means you get to keep all the minutes and texts you pay for, even if you discontinue or change numbers.

This o[E]ld dirt road 'aint on the map, [B7]I know the way by he[E]art.
And the ho[A]use still looks the same,
though the name on that old mailbox has been cha[E]nged.
And the tra[A]ctor turns the Earth,
That my daddy and a mule had plowed up fi[E]rst.
As the mem[C#m]ories return, and my e[F#m]yes begin to burn.
This old pl[A]ace, has new fa[B7]ces i[A]n the f[E]ield.
The rocking chair is on the front porch

Its almost like my mom and dad, are sitting there again.
I hear my brother calling me from his favorite, climbing tree
But I'm just hearing echoes, of how things used to be.

Nearly 150 years ago, on August 7, 1869, the Bluegrass State was the focal point of another total eclipse. Just like today, astronomers and curious travelers flocked to the state to watch the moon obscure the sun.

Republican congressman James Comer said new industrial hemp legislation he filed in the House on Friday has the credibility and bipartisanship it needs to become law.
The Tompkinsville lawmaker representing Kentucky's 1st Congressional District managed to find support from both sides of the aisle and even sway GOP leaders who have stamped out industrial hemp efforts in the past.
FRANKFORT — Kentucky Agriculture Commissioner Ryan Quarles announced Monday that voluntary "ag tag" donations in the 2017 fiscal year that ended June 30 amounted to $629,865.43, setting a record for the largest amount donated since the program began.

For years, the Cincinnati Reds have been searching for a spark and an identity — a search that ultimately cost Dusty Baker his job as manager. When general manager Walt Jocketty and new coach Bryan Price chose to trade catcher Ryan Hanigan in an effort to allow the Devin Mesoraco era to begin, it was a public display of their faith in the potential of the young catcher and his impact on the team.
It is now arguably a Reds era with the most potential since the 1970s.
When Mesoraco was drafted out of Punxsutawney High School in the first round of the 2007 draft, the Reds saw potential for a solid catcher to build their team around — both defensively and offensively. It was this potential that had the Reds' organization foaming at the mouth. It's that type of potential this team had lacked behind the plate since Johnny Bench last played in 1983.
Since that season, the position behind the plate had been a revolving door of stopgap players such as Alex Trevino, Brook Fordyce and Paul Bako. In fact, the Reds employed over 40 different catchers in failed attempts to replace the greatest catcher of all time since Bench's last day.
What the Reds and their fans are seeing now is the potential that has instilled confidence in the 25-year-old Mesoraco. For the first time in his major league career, Mesoraco is no longer having to look over his shoulder in fear of being replaced by a veteran — and that sense of confidence is more evident than ever.
In 2014, Mesoraco's stat line is insane since starting the year on the disabled list. Take a look at these numbers (which also currently include a cool 10-game hitting streak):
In fact, these numbers don't quite show everything. What has been impressive has not just been the hits collected by Mesoraco, but rather the way in which his production has been delivered. Take a look at his "clutch" statistics compared to the team as a whole:
Two outs, RISP:
- Mesoraco: .667 AVG, HR, five RBI, .750 OBP (4 Plate Appearances)
- Team: .208 AVG, five HR, 20 RBI, .313 OBP (83 PAs)
Tie game:
- Mesoraco: .571 AVG, HR, three RBI, .625 OBP (8 PAs)
- Team: .254 AVG, four HR, 17 RBI, .332 OBP (204 PAs)
One-run game:
- Mesoraco: .500 AVG, two HR, four RBI, .579 OBP (19 PAs)
- Team: .226 AVG, 12 HR, 36 RBI, .300 OBP (454 PAs)
Two-run game:
- Mesoraco: .500 AVG, three HR, nine RBI, .560 OBP (25 PAs)
- Team: .239 AVG, 15 HR, 47 RBI, .308 OBP (528 PAs)
Where the Reds have struggled mightily, "clutch" at bats with runners in scoring position, Mesoraco has excelled. His success has propelled the success of the entire team.
Need more proof?
Games without Mesoraco:
- 3-6 record
- 22 runs scored
Games with Mesoraco:
- 5-4 record
- 54 runs scored
What Mesoraco is bringing to this team is exactly what the lineup has been missing for years — stability behind the plate, both defensively and offensively. As his production continues, expect to see the Pennsylvania-native slowly penciled in higher in the batting order. His success will continue to have ripple effects throughout the entire lineup.
For example, if Mesoraco were to be batting third tonight, we can all agree that there is no pitching around Joey Votto in the two-hole by Pittsburgh. This allows the former MVP to see vastly more hittable pitches than before.
Now if Votto and Mesoraco are both lurking behind Billy Hamilton in the lineup (as well as in the minds of opposing pitchers), that in turn increases the likelihood of the speedster receiving better pitches to hit. And if Hamilton reaches base, the opportunities are endless for Votto and Mesoraco.
Heck, I haven't even mentioned the pressure it would take away from Jay Bruce and Ryan Ludwick.
Of course, one can argue that we are dealing with a small sample size that does not accurately represent the argument. However, this trend with Mesoraco began last season when he was given the starter's role by default following the injury to Hanigan.Yet it was also a trend that was evident during his non-injury plagued years in the minors.
The Reds have been in search of a big-hitting (yet stable) bat to provide protection in their lineup for years, and they may have found it in the dark abyss that had eluded them for three decades — the position behind the plate.

Intimate in scale, but grandly outfitted, the luxury cruise liner 'The Afrikaans' hosts no more than 208 pampered guests, among them; former FBI contract agent Thomas Prescott. When the ship is overtaken by African pirates who are demanding the U.S. send AIDS relief to a small Zulu village in South Africa, it is up to Prescott to keep the 400 hostages alive. As the U.S. tries to figure out how to combat the terrorists' plot from the outside, World Health Organization doctor, Gina Brady, undertakes the impossible task of rescuing three children from the secluded village. As the deadline draws near, Prescott and Brady must race against the clock to discover the truth; is it AIDS relief the pirates seek or a two billion dollar ransom from one of the richest men in the world. Or could the implications be so profound, and the stakes so high, a war hangs in the balance. Taut, riveting, with a plot snatched from the headlines of tomorrow, The Afrikaans will leave you begging for more.

"Great story telling and character building!"
I really enjoyed this book of Pirog's. The characters were great and the story moved at a decent pace. I can't wait for the one of the series to come out...when ever that will be!
"Another great Thomas Prescott story"
Did this one as an audio book, narrator did a great job. Another great Thomas Prescott story. I found the story to be take a different path from the other 2 books, not as much detective / mystery theme. This was more an action / mystery. Still with the great twists. Loved it.
"Intense and exhilarating!"
Wow!! I just got done with this book and I was overwhelmed! Great story line, well thought out characters and some twists and turns that really made it a fun listen. Definitely looking forward to his next book!
PS... Loved the accents of the character!
"Very entertaining! love the characters & twists!"
Captivating, hilarious, suspenseful.
Thomas Prescott was definitely my favorite character, the dry humor and sarcasm is awesome and keeps it really entertaining. I was also surprised by his character as the story progressed. The tone of the character was perfect for the personality.
All of the accents were great but Baruti was my favorite voice, really feels like it's another person reading and really makes you feel like it's a seriously intimidating Somalian warlord pirate guy, he nailed it.
The ending was really well done and moving but the main twist towards the end is the one that was really shocking, the last few hours of it over all were all really suspenseful and engaging. loved it. really fun to listen to.
The characters voices were awesome and there were so many it kept the whole book really fun and captivating to listen to, highly recommend it!
"Great story and great storytelling!"
Yes, this is a great story and narration for the car for long commutes or trips.
Great fast paced story with lots of funny characters brought to life by James Barak.
I love how James Barak gives every character a distinct voice. He keeps the book interesting.
This book was given to me by a friend. I don't usually have time to read but this is great for listening in the car since I commute so many hours a week. I'll definitely be getting more books by Nick Pirog and I'll look for more stories narrated by James Barak.

Eva Mendes appears to have found a new sweetheart in Ryan Gosling – the cute couple was spotted holding hands and kissing at Disneyland in California over the Labor Day weekend.
The pair has become close while shooting new movie The Place Beyond the Pines together – after a longtime friendship reportedly blossomed into romance. And they weren't hiding their feelings for each other at the happiest place on earth on Saturday.
An onlooker tells Us Weekly magazine, "They were very playful. Eva was skipping around like a little girl… She would lean into him and she held his arm the entire time."
Photos published in the new issue of the magazine clearly show the couple is more than just friends and a source tells the publication, "It hasn't been a secret how excited Eva's been to film with him, and she's always joked with us about how gorgeous he is. She's never been shy about having the hots for him!"
Mendes recently split from longtime boyfriend, filmmaker George Augusto, and has been romantically linked to funnyman Jason Sudeikis, while Gosling has dated his The Notebook co-star Rachel McAdams and has been linked to Sandra Bullock, Famke Janssen, Kat Dennings, Olivia Wilde and Blake Lively.
What do you think of this possible new couple?

Wilba, you surprise me, if you fail to secure your suitcases your insurance company can use this as a failure on your part to comply with the "small print" and disallow any claim should you need to put one in. There are two types of securing devises which are allowed by the TSA, one is a padlock which may be operated with a key or a set of numbers and the other is a lockable suitcase recognition band which goes around the case, these need to have the red and white TSA diamond shown on it and the packaging will denote that it is authentic. Love and kisses, Lucy X.
Now didn't I know I would be in for some stick by committing that to print. Do you mean there are insurance companies that actually pay out for suitcase loss or damage? My experience is if they can't wriggle out of one rule they will do their utmost to avoid the next & by the time they've applied their 'excess' for this & 'excess' for that, it was all a waste of time anyway. There......I've had my little moan about Holiday Insurance Companies......I feel better now.....Now Lucy, about these kisses......
I can both confirm and support what you say. For a small outlay this problem can be overcome. Sometimes I wish our Customs and immigration services were as thorough, though maybe not so humourless, as our American cousins.
Thank you Richard. I do feel very sorry for those who have had cases ruined but if I can discover these things, so can everyone else.I found out about this on a US government website as I was doing my pre holiday check list and then sourced the locks over here which took some doing. They were not easy to find in the UK a few years ago. At one point after 9/11, US entry/ exit requirements changed almost monthly. It pays to check everything even when you think you have all bases covered from your last holiday experience.
Hi Morton, I have just found your info regarding the TSA locks. We have samsonite hard cases with combination locks, do you know how we can get around this problem as we are flying into New York in April 09. Any help apprciated.
We also had Samsonite hard cases with combination locks and on our first trip after we learnt about the activities of the TSA, we looked in vain for the answer to this problem and kept the cases unlocked when transiting the airports[like Wilba, we were lucky].Our answer I'm afraid was to buy new soft sided but very durable Samsonite zip cases, which can take the TSA compliant locks, when we got back. The plus side is, surprisingly, the cases ARE very durable[we are lucky enough to fly to the US at least 3 or 4 times a year on holiday so they get some useage] and if the cases are opened, which ours have been on a couple of occasions, with a zip closure, there is a smaller risk of clothes getting trapped/damaged if the TSA folks have had a good rummage as all clothes have to be inside the case for the zip to be zipped! We got that advice from a luggage shop in California. The cases are a lot lighter too. Sorry I can't be more help on the combination locks but it WAS a few years ago that we looked so if you are willing to chance it, you could leave the cases unlocked and look for a solution when you are in the US. A point of interest,we did not use Heathrow but flew from Manchester when we had the cases unlocked. On the lock issue, I notice even Lakeland sell TSA locks now so you could get them online from them.I'm sitting here with a rotton cold hence the unearthly hour to reply. Feel free to ask anything else, delighted to help if I can. J.
Thanks very much for your answer and I think although they have been very good cases we will have to change to soft cases as we have at least 2 trips to the US this year alone but as you say, at least they are lighter which means I can pack more!
I have a confession to make. I've not locked a suitcase in the last 10 or 15 years. The only theft we had was by a slit in the side of the case with a Stanley/carpet type knife & few bits taken & the case itself was unlocked.
For anyone looking for a source of TSA approved locks in the UK, we purchased ours from Magellans mail order catalogue. Cynthia.
Most of the large stores now sell them in their luggage depts. John Lewis have quite a range.

|Boulesteix, Anne-Laure und Strobl, Carolin (8. Mai 2009): Optimal classifier selection and negative bias in error rate estimation: An empirical study on high-dimensional prediction. Department of Statistics: Technical Reports, Nr. 58 BMC Medical Research Methodology (accepted for publication)
In biometric practice, researchers often apply a large number of different methods in a "trial-and-error" strategy to get as much as possible out of their data and, due to publication pressure or pressure from the consulting customer, present only the most favorable results. This strategy may induce a substantial optimistic bias in prediction error estimation, which is quantitatively assessed in the present manuscript. The focus of our work is on class prediction based on high-dimensional data (e.g. microarray data), since such analyses are particularly exposed to this kind of bias. In our study we consider a total of 124 variants of classifiers (possibly including variable selection or tuning steps) within a cross-validation evaluation scheme. The classifiers are applied to original and modified real microarray data sets, some of which are obtained by randomly permuting the class labels to mimic non-informative predictors while preserving their correlation structure. We then assess the minimal misclassification rate over the different variants of classifiers in order to quantify the bias arising when the optimal classifier is selected a posteriori in a data-driven manner. The bias resulting from the parameter tuning (including gene selection parameters as a special case) and the bias resulting from the choice of the classification method are examined both separately and jointly. We conclude that the strategy to present only the optimal result is not acceptable, and suggest alternative approaches for properly reporting classification accuracy.

You raise a lot of good questions and provoke many thoughts. One thing about "Home Theater receivers", is at this point right now, they are very current as far as connectivity, ease of use, and flexibility. However, if sound quality is first on your list, I would go separates. And there are companies like Anthem, that make great equipment, for the money.
I would find a dealer, let him know what you shared with us, listen and watch. Let him compare a separates system vs. a receiver based system. Then, you will have something to reference. In both equipment, and pricing. Then you will know whether the difference in sound quality and pricing, is worth it. Bring your own cds and dvds, and enjoy the experience.

hey man if you dont like bacon thats cool there are other delicious breakfast meats
Meat for breakfast just does not sound good to me. :x
i dont like eating in the morning really
I don't generally eat meat with breakfast, either.
I also very rarely eat bacon. I'm gonna go crucify myself now so you guys don't have to. I find the obsession with bacon very, very stupid. Especially the bacon soap and **** like that. If you want to smell like a butcher shop, just don't bother showering. Within a few days, you'll be set.

I am going to take the high road and make a dirty a pun related the current food conversation. But I will say I find most traditional breakfast foods pretty unappealing. It's usually either salted grease or full of sugar. I like that stuff on occasion, but it's really not the kind of thing I would want to eat on a regular basis.
I also want a Wii U now, it must be pretty awesome if it's making that kid dance.

A Faulkner County couple has filed a lawsuit relating to what they claim is the illegal destruction of "priceless" family heirlooms in a property foreclosure.
Quincey McKinney, a Conway attorney with the firm McKinney and McKinney PLLC, prepared a complaint filed in Faulkner County Circuit Court in which it is claimed that when Waburn and Judy Brewer learned that their rural home at 291 White Oak Road (roughly between Enola and Rose Bud) was to be foreclosed and assigned to the Federal National Mortgage Association (Fannie Mae), they had arranged for a number of family heirlooms to be housed at a neighbor's nearby storage building at 6 Ash Drive — a property owned by another person and not subject to the foreclosure.
These heirlooms included a World War II flight uniform, World War II medals, Judy Brewer's wedding dress, family photographs and crafts made by the Brewers' children, according to Judy Brewer.
When persons came to clean up the foreclosed property at some point before Sept. 7, 2009, the complaint claims, these people entered the nearby storage building as well and took and/or burned their belongings.
The storage building's owner, Alan Shaver, said that some water skis and other outdoor equipment of his was stored inside the building, and this was taken or destroyed as well.
"It had some value to it, but it wasn't nothing compared to (the Brewer's)," Shaver said.
The Brewers found on Sept. 7, 2009, that the property had been removed, and contacted Jacksonville real estate firm Mason and Co. Realty LLC and a Fannie Mae representative to make them aware of the situation, according to the complaint. On Sept. 21, 2009, according to the complaint, the Brewers returned to Mr. Shaver's shop in hopes of finding that their property had been returned.
"What they discovered instead was a large pile of ash and debris from what had obviously been a burn pile approximately 100 feet from the storage building," the complaint states. "... Though badly burned, they were able to identify numerous items of their personal property including glassware, melted picture albums, buttons from clothing, medals from World War II and many other of their belongings lying in the ashes."
Listed in the lawsuit as defendants are Fannie Mae, Mason and Co. Realty LLC. and "John Does 1-10," and it is these unknown "John Does" who are alleged in the suit to have "caused harm, etc., during the course of their employment."
Mason and Co. principal broker John Mason said on Wednesday that neither he nor his office was "involved in the trash-out" of the Brewers' property, nor did he remove any articles from the property.
"There is another entity that is neither Fannie Mae nor me," Mason added.
According to the complaint, "a letter and business card from John Mason of Mason Realty addressed to Waburn and Judy Brewer and all other occupants of (the foreclosed home)" was "taped to the door of Mr. Shaver's shop," and this letter stated that the property was being placed in storage for 30 days.
Mason said on Wednesday that a letter had been left on the door of the residence, not the shop, "giving them 30 days to remove the property that they have left inside the house."
Judy Brewer said that she and her husband have so far been unable to determine where any of their property that may have been spared the alleged burn pile may have been stored.

For the first time in the history of South County politics, City Council candidates vying for two open seats this November will have a chance to address Spanish-speaking residents in a bilingual forum on Sunday.
Forum organizer Jim Miranda, a local realtor and community activist, said all of City Council candidates have agreed to participate on the panel and answer questions from residents about various issues, including the economy and neighborhood redevelopment programs. Questions from the audience will be translated into English for the candidates and their answers will be translated into Spanish for the residents.
"It's something that's never been done in south Orange County," Miranda said. "There is a large Spanish-speaking constituency here. Candidates have a social responsibility to the Hispanic community."
The 90-minute "Yes You Can" forum, which will start at 4 p.m., will be at Our Lady of Fatima Parish Hall, 105 La Esperanza in San Clemente.

[deleted account] ( 4 moms have responded )
I met my husband in middle school (can you believe it) my 7th grade, his 8th grade year. It's funny because even then we were two totally different people. I was popular and knew everyone vice versa and he was weird and was kind of a social outcast. We broke up for reasons no one really knows (his sister) and that was that. I got to high school and entered a 4 1/2 yr relationship, he went to high school and got serious his senior year, we both ended up with non appreciative, cheating, lying, WHORES!!! LOL, but then we reunited on fb through a friend that I didn't even know we mutually had. And that was that, everything happened so quickly. We "met" and started dating in April, I graduated in May, saw him again in June, and July I was pregnant, lol. But seriously though my house was hell and he took me away from there. I use to question myself and God, "Why me? Why now? I was going to college, a week away. I'm 18!!" But then I looked back at it, my mom is the devil and kept me under lock, if I had went off to college I would have gotten buck wilde, partied, drunk (I don't drink), ended up with a bad rep, etc. So I know that He was just looking out for me and blessed me with a wonderful baby boy and the greatest man I could ask for. I may have gotten pregnant at 17, married at 18, and whatever you want to say but I am one blessed and happy 19 year old. How about you?
