If you want to repave an asphalt driveway or replace a concrete one, you may be wondering how long the process will take. When street parking is not an option, homeowners often put off driveway paving out of fear of the inconvenience. However, the process does not take long. Below, the team at Beausoleil and Sons explains what you can expect when you schedule driveway paving.
How Long It Takes to Repave
To ensure the longevity of your asphalt driveway, you should seal or re-pave it every one to two years. The precise frequency will vary among homeowners, but since weather is a major contributing factor, everyone in New England can benefit from annual or biannual service. The area's extreme temperature fluctuations from winter to summer—along with the snow, salt, and sand—will cause an unsealed asphalt driveway to disintegrate over time.
Fortunately, your driveway will only be out of commission for 24 to 48 hours during the repaving process. In most cases, you will be able to drive on it again after just one day.
How Long It Takes to Replace
Replacing a concrete driveway with asphalt is a fairly intensive job that takes longer than repaving. However, when you turn to the right contractor, you can feel confident they have the tools and manpower to finish the job fast. In most circumstances, a seasoned team will be able to remove the old driveway, install a new one, and seal it in just two days.
To repair, replace, or repave your driveway, call on the team at Beausoleil and Sons. They have been proud to serve clients throughout Rhode Island, Massachusetts, and Connecticut for more than four decades.

(RxWiki News) It's not unusual for some children to experience stomach pains for no apparent reason. This pain usually goes away on its own. But a little mind over matter might help too.
A recent study found that a type of mental health therapy may help children with abdominal pain.
The therapy is called cognitive behavioral therapy.
It is often used to treat depression, bipolar disorder and other mental health conditions.
The therapy is available through most mental health clinics and mental healthcare professionals.
"Discuss your child's pain treatment plan with their pediatrician."
The study, led by Shelley van der Veek, PhD, of the Department of Child and Adolescent Psychiatry at the Academic Medical Center in Amsterdam, The Netherlands, looked at using cognitive behavioral therapy for kids' abdominal pain.
During cognitive behavioral therapy, a therapist helps patients reframe the way they see things and how they emotionally respond to events in their lives.
The researchers spilt 104 children, aged 7 to 18, into two groups. The children had all been suffering from some kind of abdominal pain that did not appear to be caused by a specific, identifiable reason.
One half of the children received six sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy with psychology graduate students.
The other half visited a pediatrician or pediatric gastroenterologist six times.
The children's pain symptoms were assessed before receiving any treatment, immediately after treatment, six months later and one year later.
The researchers also looked at whether the children had other gastrointestinal problems, other pain, anxiety or depression at the follow-up visits.
The researchers found that the children in both groups reported a decrease in their abdominal pain, but there was no major difference between the two groups.
These results remained similar even six months later based on questionnaires the children filled out.
Sixty percent of the children receiving cognitive behavioral therapy had recovered or significantly improved while 56 percent of the children assigned to visit a pediatrician had recovered or majorly improved.
The percentages were also similar when the researchers looked at the children's ongoing diary record of their pain.
While 66 percent of the children receiving therapy had improvements based on their diaries, 63 percent of the children visiting the doctor had improvements.
In addition, the children's quality of life and symptoms of other pain, depression and anxiety (if any) also improved across both groups.
The researchers therefore concluded that visits to the doctor and six sessions of cognitive behavioral therapy were equally effective in treating children's abdominal pain.
The study was published October 14 in the journal Pediatrics. The research was funded by the Dutch Digestive Foundation. The authors declared no conflicts of interest.

Here's your life at 8 months:
Your sleep schedule is almost perfect. You go to bed at 7 and wake up about 5:30 am to eat. You then go back to bed for about an hour or an hour and a ½. You are taking two naps a day. One nap is about a little over an hour and the other nap tends to be a little over two hours.
You can sit up like a champ.
You love the kitty and he is starting to get used to you. Sometimes the kitty will even let you pet him.

Oh, I forgot....I wanted to post another picture that my daughter took. Although this little one is grey, he was the inspiration for my newest painting. The rabbits LOVE our yard since we have so many dandelions popping up everywhere. They love eating them. Another great picture Katlyn! Maybe, if we have the camera on hand, we can catch the family of fox that might pass through. Take care!

L.A. and London Style Are Poles Apart, But All Cool Girls Will Wear These Trends
You'll undoubtedly recognise Louise Roe's beaming smile and impeccable fashion sense from the many times she's graced your screens as a TV host and red carpet reporter. Like a true "slash" generational, British-born, L.A.-based Louise started her fashion adventures as the news editor for Vogue.com and has since then written for countless high-profile publications. As well as penning her book on personal style (respectively named Front Roe), she also tends to her popular eponymous website, where she shares fashion, lifestyle, wedding and beauty advice galore. She'll be back every month on Who What Wear UK to offer you some very important style guidance.
I'm English, but I've lived in the U.S. for nearly 10 years. I truly consider both L.A. and London my homes, and from a style perspective, I've come to know and love the fashion landscapes of both places... and I can confirm they are poles apart! I think one of the most common questions I get asked during interviews is "What is the difference between L.A. and London style?" There are so many stereotypes that exist on each side of the pond—such as American style being flashy and tacky or British style being traditional and stuffy. But in reality, both the U.S. and UK are more influenced by each other than we realise. And despite the difference in climate, there are so many new trends to share this autumn that will work in both cities.
Personally, I think that we have so much inspiration to gain from each other. There's an edgy, low-key sophistication to British fashion that I love: tailoring, messy hair, smudged makeup, cropped flares and generally letting your style speak for itself. In America—certainly in L.A., which doesn't represent the rest of the States!—I've noticed that people fall into two extremes: beach casual or highly styled. I enjoy the fact that you can wear denim shorts, a white tee and vintage shades to pretty much any event. Conversely, it's not unusual to see girls go out to dinner in super-strappy Aquazzuras, high-waisted leather trousers (I nearly wrote "pants"—perhaps I have been here too long after all!) and a crop top. Boobs are pushed up here instead of sitting in lace camisoles like they do in Europe. Lips in L.A. are lined and glossed (the bigger the better), whereas in London, I'm seeing more girls apply a quick red stain with their finger—matte and imperfect.
Perhaps it's easier envisioned if you look at some of the leading models and fashion icons in each place. The Hadid sisters and the Jenner sisters have, for example, a totally different aesthetic compared to Alexa Chung and Suki Waterhouse. They might wear the same trends (or even the same dress), but they will usually style it in a completely different way. Of course, these are big generalisations and in no way sum up the entire two nations. They are, however, my observations having spent so much time in the both the U.S. and UK fashion industries. That said, here are some of my favourite autumn trends that both British and American girls love.
1. Patent Boots
Roger Vivier Patent Leather Ankle Boots (£870)
Both American and British girls can agree that these ankle boots pair best with jeans.
2. checked blazers
Light Before Dark Checked Double Breasted Blazer (£72)
British girls will need to layer this soon—it's perfect with a black roll-neck.
3. gigantic gold earrings
Mango Metal Pendant Earrings (£10)
These give off major Dynasty vibes.
4. cord trousers
M.i.h Jeans Marty Mid-Rise Kick-Flare Cord Trousers (£195)
British brand M.i.h. makes the chicest corduroy jeans around.
5. embellished handbags
Attico Satin Dragon Embroidered Pouch (£465)
Because everyone has a festive party schedule, right?
6. skinny sunglasses
Elizabeth and James McKinley Sunglasses (£144)
Fashion lovers across the globe are favouring smaller silhouettes over large, oversize frames.
7. coin necklaces
Lucy Williams x Missoma Medallion Necklace (£179)
A subtle, timeless jewellery piece every girl should have in her collection.
8. fancy mules
Dolce & Gabbana Jackie Velvet Mules (£540)
Party flats that work by day in L.A. and by night in London.
9. anything bright red
Helmut Lang Ribbed Sweater (£195)
Red lipstick, red knits and red tailoring are trending on both sides of the Atlantic.
Next up, the A/W 17 fashion trends we saw at fashion week.

Updating uncertainties in friction angles of clean sands
The debate on global warming, for example, could affect the use of coal in some areas; recycling lessens the amount of new material required; and the increasing use of non-mineral materials, such as plastics, affects the intensity of use of metals and minerals per unit of GDP.

Furthermore, constraints on engineering practice based on environmental and societal requirements necessitate specially designed mud formulations and drilling techniques.
Development and application of these solutions depends critically not only on an understanding of the processes that act within the Earth, but also of the impact of these processes on drilling practice.

Tagged: mind
From a philosophical perspective, the discovery of mirror neurons is exciting because it gave us an idea of how motor primitives could have been used as semantic primitives: that is, how meaning could be communicated between agents. Thanks to our mirror neurons, we can consciously experience another human being's movements as meaningful.Perhaps the evolutionary precursor of language was not animal calls but gestural communication. The transmission of meaning may initially have grown out of the unconscious bodily self-model and out of motor agency, based, in our primate ancestors, on elementary gesturing. Sounds may only later have been associated with gestures, perhaps with facial gestures—such as scowling, wincing, or grinning—that already carried meaning. Still today, the silent observation of another human being grasping an object is immediately understood, because, without symbols or thought in between, it evokes the same motor representation in the parieto-frontal mirror system of our own brain. As Professor Rizzolatti and Dr. Maddalena Fabbri Destro from the Department of Neuroscience at the University of Parma put it: "[T]he mirror mechanism solved, at an initial stage of language evolution, two fundamental communication problems: parity and direct comprehension. Thanks to the mirror neurons, what counted for the sender of the message also counted for the receiver. No arbitrary symbols were required. The comprehension was inherent in the neural organization of the two individuals."
Such ideas give a new and rich meaning not only to the concepts of "grasping" and "mentally grasping the intention of another human being," but, more important, also to the concept of grasping a concept—the essence of human thought itself. It may have to do with simulating hand movements in your mind but in a much more abstract manner. Humankind has apparently known this for centuries, intuitively: "Concept" comes from the Latin conceptum, meaning "a thing conceived," which, like our modern "to conceive of something," is rooted in the Latin verb concipere, "to take in and hold." As early as 1340, a second meaning of the term had appeared: "taking into your mind." Surprisingly, there is a representation of the human hand in Broca's area, a section of the human brain involved in language processing, speech or sign production, and comprehension. A number of studies have shown that hand/arm gestures and movements of the mouth are linked through a common neural substrate. For example, grasping movements influence pronunciation— and not only when they are executed but also when they are observed. It has also been demonstrated that hand gestures and mouth gestures are directly linked in humans, and the oro-laryngeal movement patterns we create in order to produce speech are a part of this link.
Broca's area is also a marker for the development of language in human evolution, so it is intriguing to see that it also contains a motor representation of hand movements; here may be a part of the bridge that led from the "body semantics" of gestures and the bodily self-model to linguistic semantics, associated with sounds, speech production, and abstract meaning expressed in our cognitive self-model, the thinking self. Broca's area is present in fossils of Homo habilis, whereas the presumed precursors of these early hominids lacked it. Thus the mirror mechanism is conceivably the basic mechanism from which language evolved. By providing motor copies of observed actions, it allowed us to extract the action goals from the minds of other human beings—and later to send abstract meaning from one Ego Tunnel to the next.
The mirror-neuron story is attractive not only because it bridges neuroscience and the humanities but also because it illuminates a host of simpler social phenomena. Have you ever observed how infectious a yawn is? Have you ever caught yourself starting to laugh out loud with others, even though you didn't really understand the joke? The mirror-neuron story gives us an idea of how groups of animals—fish schools, flocks of birds—can coordinate their behavior with great speed and accuracy; they are linked through something one might call a low-level resonance mechanism. Mirror neurons can help us understand why parents spontaneously open their mouths while feeding their babies, what happens during a mass panic, and why it is sometimes hard to break away from the herd and be a hero. Neuroscience contributes to the image of humankind: We are all connected in an intersubjective space of meaning—what Vittorio Gallese calls a "shared manifold."
Thomas Metzinger, The Ego Tunnel: The Science of The Mind and The Myth of The Self.
Reality is not a fixed entity. It is a contingent interlocking of moving events. And events do not just happen to us. We are an integral part of every event. We enter into the shape of events, even as we long for an absolute in which to rest. It may be just this longing for an absolute in which our concepts might not have to be responsible for our percepts, and so indirectly our reality, that explains the hostility of our ordinary intellect to these shadowy modes of mind.
Our inherited representation, our world view, is a language-made affair. It varies from culture to culture. Edward Sapir, the linguist, called this idea of ours that we adjust to reality without the use of language an illusion. He claimed that the "real world" is to a large extent built up on the language habits of the group.
None of us exercises our logical, social thinking as a blank slate, or as a photographic plate, seeing what is "actually there." We focus on the world through an esthetic prism from which we can never be free except by exchanging prisms. There is no pure looking with a naked, innocent eye. Even our most critical, analytical, scientific, or "detached" looking is a verification search, sifting through possibilities for a synthesis that will strengthen the hypotheses that generate the search.
Our world view is a cultural pattern that shapes our mind from birth. It happens to us as fate. We speak of a child becoming "reality-adjusted" as he responds and becomes a cooperating strand in the social web. We are shaped by this web; it determines the way we think, the way we see what we see. It is our pattern of representation and our response sustains the pattern.
Yet any world view is arbitrary to an indeterminable extent. This arbitrariness is difficult to recognize since our world to view is determined by our world view. To consider our world view arbitrary and flexible automatically places our world of reality in the same questionable position. And yet we are always changing this world view. We represent such changes as discoveries of absolutes in order to protect outselves from our arbitrary status, and to avoid the implication that human thinking is a creative process. We deny that disciplines of mind synthetically create; we insist we are but discovering "nature's truths." We possess an open-ended potential at considerable variance with contemporary nihilisms, but we must recognize and accept the dynamic interplay of representation-response if we are not to be acted on rather than fully acting.
It has been claimed that our minds screen out far more than we accept, else we would live in a world of chaos. Our screening process may be essential, but it is also arbitrary and changeable. We pick and choose, ignore or magnify, illuminate or dampen, expand upon or obscure, affirm or deny, as our inheritance, adopted discipline, or passionate pursuit dictate. At root is an esthetic response, and we invest our esthetic responses with sacred overtones.
Most people respond automatically to their given circle of representation, and strengthen it by their unconscious allegiance. Since their cultural circle is made of many conflicting drives for their allegiance, their lives are fragmented and ambiguous.
This centering of mind fills a person with power and conviction. It creates mathematicians, saints, or Nazis with equal and impartial ease.
We look on archetypal world views, those held by "primitive" tribes, and consider them archaic "survival" mechanisms. We have been taught that the real "out there" has been seen only dimly before, but with a progressively more realistic, aware, civilized eye, culminating in our viewpoint. (Alien world views can thus be exploited or even removed as threats to our true one, lending a religious sanctification to our culture destructions.)
Levi-Strauss, the French anthropologist, challenges our smug chauvinisms. He claims that archaic thought patterns were highly disciplined, intellectual structures, designed to give the world coherence, shape, and meaning. This is, in fact, just what all world views do. Primitive man "sacralized" his intellectual structure no more than we do ours. Neither system is any more true than the other. Ours is more esthetic-ally desirable to us, but is bought at the same price all selective systems are, the price of those possibilities sacrificed to keep a limited structure intact. The difference between Einstein's relative universe and the Dream-Time cosmology of the Australian aborigine is not a matter of truth or falsehood, realism or illusion, progression or regression, intelligence or stupidity, as the naive realists have claimed. It is a matter of esthetic choice. Each system produces results unobtainable to the other; each is closed and exclusive.

It happens to a lot of people unfortunately. My advice for you is not happy or easy. I will simply tell you to keep a seed of hope alive for them (and the possibility of them opening their eyes) in the back of your head, but don't plan on it happening and don't base any of your life plans on it. As for the anger and thoughts which won't go away: find your voice if you haven't already. Writing and sharing your experience helps, going into activism and actively speaking out against the attitudes and falsehoods which are the underpinnings of our parents' anti-gay stance can be very helpful both on an external and internal level. It might help you to find literature which deals with these sorts of subjects. I wish you the best of luck with that.Nonsequiturhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-20267393.post-35132583884972864282010-12-17T17:18:39.625-05:002010-12-17T17:18:39.625-05:00So, I'm finally gonna comment -- your posts ri...So, I'm finally gonna comment -- your posts ring so true and close to my own experience.
I already posted something on your blog about a year ago or something. The story with my parents has been quite similar to yours (ex-gay therapy included!), and the outcome is the same. It's been 8 years since I told them I was gay, and it's still a taboo subject and unlikely to change. Although my mom is very loving, she does not want to know anything about this. She's filled with shame, she's made me feel worthless and undeserving (I'm still recovering from that...) and she just can't understand why I would have a problem relating to them shutting down 90% of my life, all the while making sure I know how much she loves me -- words I'm highly sensitive to (My dad doesn't even enter the picture. He's the one that gave her all these ideas about how religion could help...)
Hence my anger. It doesn't go away. It peppers my daily experience and when I go to bed at night I'm at least an hour ruminating all this stuff over and over again; it's exhausting, frustrating, infuriating, and although it doesn't help anything, I can't stop thinking about it at will.

So yeah. I'm stuck.

If you have any kind advice from your own personal experience, I'd love to hear it ;)Tobalhttps://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-20267393.post-20205420302742982412010-12-03T13:54:13.308-05:002010-12-03T13:54:13.308-05:00So glad you are back Non Sequitur!

You DON'T!
Exercising outside in the cold can be extremely bad for your health – there are so many risks in doing so.
When you exercise in the cold you are putting yourself at risk of falling sick!
My best tip for exercising during the rainy season is – signing up to a local gym (obviously). You can train at the gym through any season – rain, thunderstorms, the scorching heat and even when it floods (hence any season). You could argue that exercising at home would suffice but speaking from experience, it doesn't always work out for most people (especially if you don't have a proper set-up or for most, you just get plain lazy). The motivation just isn't there!
Think about how different it would be to exercise around other like-minded people. It's like running a marathon with other marathon runners. The atmosphere makes all the difference when it comes to exercising. They say hanging with successful people makes you more inclined to succeed. So why not surround yourself with people who have similar goals?
There are many benefits for having a gym membership and becoming involved with weight training. These benefits include (but are not limited to):
- Increasing your metabolism – gaining lean muscle mass allows your body to burn more calories at rest, therefore burning fat without having to workout. With the right program and guidance this can be easily achieved over time. Don't forget, it doesn't happen overnight and neither does earning $1 million. Hard work pays off right?
- Toning up – give your body some definition and something to look at in the mirror every day. Feel good about yourself. With the right program you can shape your body the way you want. Thus, weight training can also be seen as an art form.
- Preventing future medical conditions – there are certain age-related health problems that come about due to a lack of weight-bearing activities which affect the strength of your bones. This can be prevented by going to the gym and performing weighted movements to help keep your bones strong and healthy. Look after your future self… in the present.
- Looking good naked – how great would it be to willingly rip your shirt off at the beach just to see who's looking? Or forgetting you had your top off as you walk outside your house to throw the trash out, only to have your neighbours staring from their windows. How about walking past a group of attractive women with a sleeveless shirt only to have them notice your aesthetics? Something to ponder about.

Well we had a bit of a mixed bag of weather over the weekend. Mostly grey and damp, though. I got in a couple of good runs, and we had some long walks. Carol and Sonja took both dogs for a walk last evening. You can see how much they enjoyed themselves by the state Meg was in when they got back!
Mucky (and smelly) Meg with Sonja
We had a fairly early start today, at least by our standards; we were under way by 09:20!
It's been an enjoyable day, long but fine and dry, with a mixture of canal and river, some built up bits and rural stretches and even some post-industrial that is being reclaimed by nature.
We passed the visitor moorings at Horbury Bridge and spotted NB Alice. We nearly bought this boat in June 2006 when it was for sale. But the interior layout, although superbly constructed, didn't meet our needs.
NB Alice
The first locks were Figure of 3 Locks, just 2 of them to go through, with the third now blocked, dropping down to the river. More evidence of the damage caused by the January flooding can be seen on the towpath.
Figure of 3 Bottom Lock
Flood Damage. The River Calder is on the left. It overflowed into the canal at this point, washing out the towpath.
At Mill Bank Lock we had the chance to try out the Mk II Handspike. It does the job….
On to Thornhill Double Locks, with today's SBDA winner on the visitor moorings below the locks.
Sunken Cruiser. A bit of a hazard to navigation…..
This was not the first, nor the last, casualty seen today.
Thornhill Double Locks. The Dewsbury Arm leads off on the right.
The old Thornhill Power Station has been completely demolished, leaving large tracts of open land now being covered by birch and brambles. A pair of swans are taking advantage of the lack of business at the coal wharf which supplied the site.
Nesting Swans
Shepley Bridge Lock gave us a bit of a problem. With the boats both in side by side, we couldn't shut the bottom gate past Seyella's stern. So we locked the boats up individually so we could slot the longer boat in crosswise.
Not much room to spare in Shepley Bridge Lock
According to Nicholsons the maximum length is 57'6". Even with fenders up we didn't fit though. So maybe I should put a tape measure on Seyella and confirm she is the rated 57'….
We passed Coopers Bridge Junction where the Huddersfield Canal heads off on it's route over the pennines. It starts off with broad locks, then goes narrow and disappears under Standedge through the 3 mile 418 yard long tunnel, before finishing up at Aston-Under-Lyne and connecting with the Ashton Canal through Manchester.
Coopers Bridge Junction and Bottomley and Sons mill.
We ended the day just above Kirklees Top Lock. It's a pleasant spot, the only downside is the constant mutter of traffic from the M62 which crosses over the canal a little way ahead.
Kirklees Bottom Lock
I'm afraid we lost Donald the plastic duck today. After several months of being perched on the bow fender since being rescued from a lock on the T&M he was getting a little fragile. Alas, a stream of water from a leaky top gate saw his demise. RIP, Donald.
Locks 11, miles 10

While PS4 user "JSmash7" Jason Betthauser finds this method to be a glitch, he simply takes advantage of low spawn times on non-gold treasure chests in caves which are fairly close to each other. Using his speeder to transport back and fourth, Jason's video showcases one of the fastest known ways to pick up money in the game, showcased below.

DOE to Re-Consider Higher Furnace Efficiency Standards
After more than a year, the U.S. Court of Appeals has granted a petition from several states and efficiency advocates with support from the Obama administration to review the U.S. Department of Energy's most recent increase in the residential furnace efficiency standards. A new and most likely abridged rulemaking must be completed by May 1, 2011 to consider a new standards of at least 90% AFUE.

We met up with my cousin, Sarah, and her family for the holiday. They showed us an adventurous time - they took us to a rock climbing spot perfect for the kids. Nick and Matthias belayed and all the kids to amazing heights. After the kids went up a few times each, they MADE me go up, really, Matthias wouldn't let me get out of it. I was terrified the whole way up, but am so glad I did it. Way fun. Sarah got some great shots of the kids, I was only able to steal these two pictures before it wouldn't let me anymore. Weird. Check out her blog for some more amazing pictures.
After, we drove up to Estes Park for our first time since moving here. We perused the Art Festival, got some ice cream, and headed home! Thanks S&N for a perfect day. We loved it and look forward to more adventures with you!

Life in the mission,
This week was really interesting. I apologized to Artemio and his wife that I was not going to be able to attend his wedding. I was able to talk to him on Tuesday, face to face. We had a good talk and it really made me feel better.
Then, I traveled to the Beautiful city of Iquitos (1 and a half hours from Lima).
I was still confused whether I was going to be training or not. So, I now know that I am training. MY companion is Elder Venegas. He is from Piura, Peru. He really doesn't know a lot. He is new in the gospel. I am giving him milk, and after a long time I will be able to give him meat.
I am the first person to train in the jungle in over 10 yrs. I don't know if that is a good thing or a bad thing but I am excited.
This is an interesting story...
We live with another companionship in our apartment, and it is really cool. We also live next to a family that the parents are both in the armed forces, they aren't members.
Saturday Night my companion was showering and we heard the wife screaming, "Save me, Save me. HELP ME, SOMEBODY HELP ME." We also heard crashing in the room. I heard what was happening and knew that something was wrong. I ran to the room of the other Elders and told them what was going on. I said that the husband was beating his wife. All of the neighbors heard the fight and were all in the road yelling and called the cops. I was with the other elder that has about the same time as me in the mission and we went to knock on the door to possibly help them out. They didn't want to open it up. After about 5 minutes the Police showed up and after knocking on the door a long time the wife opened the door, but didn't want to talk to the cops. I wasn't yet changed into my pajamas and walked in to talk to her. I told her that we are missionaries of the Church of Jesus Christ and that we could help her. I asked her if we could talk, she said yes and invited us in. After talking to her we figured out that he was drinking large amounts of alcohol and got angry with her and well they fought it out a little. We calmed her down and helped her find a little bit of peace and comfort and we also gave her a blessing of comfort.
On Sunday we talked to him (her husband) after the side effects were worn off. We talked about the word of wisdom and the consequences of sin. And to skip to the end, they had a family prayer that he offered on his knees. They went to church Sunday. So we get to see again that the gospel changes lives. We are going to continue helping them.
I really received a stronger testimony after that one.
I am training a BRAND NEW ELDER from the MTC in Peru. I also am District Leader, double work.
I LOVE YOU. Have you sent the scales and stuff book? MY ward has a really decent keyboard and I actually might teach Piano.
I LOVE YOU, and am grateful for everything.

Jessica Paré (left) and writer/director/actor/composer Rob Stefaniuk shoot a scene for upcoming rock 'n' roll vampire musical Suck. Photo by RAFY
Parkdale Pop
If you were strolling around Parkdale Thursday, you might have noticed a strangely familiar skinny guy with long hair wandering the 'hood. Your eyes weren't fooling you - that was indeed punk rock pioneer Iggy Pop, in town shooting scenes for Suck, the upcoming vampire rock 'n' roll musical written, directed and starring past NOW cover boy Rob Stefaniuk (Phil The Alien).
Casting Pop has provoked a lot of buzz in some circles, especially since it's a real part and not just a cameo. Names like Moby, Henry Rollins, Alice Cooper and Carole Pope are also prompting people to ask who Stefaniuk sold his soul to in order to bring them on board.
Oh yeah, did we mention that career super-villian Malcolm McDowell (A Clockwork Orange) plays a vampire slayer in the movie?
Hammer time
When Teenage Head frontman Frankie Venom died on October 15, guitarist Gord Lewis, who co-founded the group, had to rethink his career plans, although hanging up his rock 'n' roll shoes wasn't an option. Now he's bounced back with fellow bandmates Steve Marshall and Jack Pedler along with Junkhouse singer Tom Wilson in the Hamilton supergroup Sons of the Hammer.
"Teenage Head was scheduled to play a party at the Grey Cup in Montreal," explains Lewis, "but with Frank's passing, I figured they'd get another group. But they called to say that if we were up for it they still wanted us to play. So we put together a set of some classics by Eddie Cochran and Bo Diddley along with a few Teenage Head obscurities. Everyone had such a good time that we decided to do a few more shows."
The future of Teenage Head is still undecided, but for now Lewis is looking forward to tearin' up the Horseshoe with the Sons of the Hammer on December 26.
"I needed to keep busy, and this is like therapy. I love playing Toronto, and being onstage at the Horseshoe the day after Christmas, surrounded by my friends, will be a great present for me."

The Los Angeles Clippers today announced that the team traded forward Josh Smith, the draft rights to Sergei Lishouck, and cash considerations to the Houston Rockets in exchange for the draft rights to Maarty Leunen.
Smith, who played for the Rockets last year and helped them eliminate the Clippers from the playoffs, will now be reunited with longtime friend and Houston center, Dwight Howard.
The Clippers signed Smith as a free agent this past offseason with the expectation that his size, athleticism, and offensive versatility would give Los Angeles' bench a major upgrade. Smith, however, failed to perform as expected, as the 11-year NBA veteran appeared in 32 games (1 start), averaging 5.7 points, 3.9 rebounds, and 1.1 blocks in 14.3 minutes per game.
Even with star forward Blake Griffin out due to injury, Smith has not seen a significant increase in playing time, as head coach Doc Rivers has preferred using Cole Aldrich, Paul Pierce, and Luc Mbah a Moute instead. Smith has racked up several DNP-CD's since Griffin's injury.
One reason for the lack of playing time was a likely chemistry issue, as it had previously been reported that Smith had a heated argument with a member of the coaching staff this season.
Originally selected by the Atlanta Hawks with the 17th pick in the 2004 NBA Draft, Smith has appeared in 868 career regular season games with Atlanta, Detroit, Houston and the Clippers and owns career averages of 14.8 points, 7.6 rebounds, 3.2 assists and 2.0 blocks in 32.9 minutes.
Leunen, 30, was a stand-out at the University of Oregon and the 54th overall pick in the 2008 NBA Draft by Houston. Leunen currently plays for Scandone Avellino of the Italian Serie A.
The rights to Lishouck, 32, were acquired by the Clippers on Jan. 7, 2015 from the Philadelphia 76ers. Originally drafted by the Memphis Grizzlies with the 49th overall selection of the 2004 NBA Draft, Lishouck currently plays for UCAM Murcia in Spain.

Selah is 6 months old today!
About a month ago, I couldn't wrap my head around the fact she would be 6 months, half a year old. Now that it is here, it seems more realistic, but still kinda weird.
I can't get enough of this little baby. I just have to squeeze her all the time.
We snapped a few (okay, more than a few) pics today.
These are my favorites!
A couple days ago, I told Matt I wanted to do the classic naked baby on a rug...He said no baby butts.
But I did it anyway.
My mom crocheted this blanket for Selah. I love it, so I had to put in in a couple of pictures. Thanks, Ma!
some of the "everyday expressions"
...baby toes
my favorite face
Happy Birthday, Selah!

Welcome to my blog, where I write about my ongoing quest for spiritual fulfillment and truth. My search has taken me down many different avenues of spirituality and is still a work in progress. My definition of truth has changed, even from when I first began writing this blog. I find a great sense of peace in the knowledge that I have grown and changed with my findings rather than maintaining the status quo. It is this spirit that enabled me to leave a background of Christian fundamentalism and move forward with my life. I have undertaken liberty by opening my mind and setting my soul free.
My writing runs the full gamut of human emotions. Much of the earlier posts show anger at Christianity and religion in general. Some posts are full of questions and searching as I work through my feelings about religion and spirituality. Since I began writing I came to realize that my beef is with fundamentalism, not religion as a whole. I do not hate religion or Christianity; my feelings toward both are quite complicated, actually. I do, however, despise the many dark, harmful things that have been perpetrated in their names. Religious fundamentalism is a deadly cancer eating at humanity.

Here we are poet-
exiles, gnomes
or vagrants migrating
with a seasoned
destiny like sparrows
but with no one
in your specter
to take you in,
perhaps people think
we are curious
a bit eccentric
like hesitant words
in muffled speech
and language,
perhaps another poor poet
in the Americas
will recognize me
through his glasses
jumping over hills
or at intersections
of the winding sky.
You managed to arrive
early in my life
while budding ideals
surfaced along two Coasts
in subterranean joys
as I climbed up to dive
in a flow of oceans
having traveled
having cut short
all circuits
to my becoming a poet
surrounded by birds and fauna,
Walt, nothing is foreign
to us, neither springs or
waterfalls nor language
of alembic alphabets
cools our tongues.
by the silence
behind trees' first light
of a wintry vacation
maps our hours out
on a park bench,
I'm slowly drawing
pictorial sketches
from haiku
when red ink
falls on the hands
by my melancholy watch
brushing away
odd-and-end thoughts
as suddenly as photographs
in music as a cat
crawls under a park bench
with a frozen numbness
alarmed by the voice
of the poet I hear
in my spirit
Dylan Thomas
reading "Under Milk Wood"
wanting only to drink
at the local pub
as familiar faces
run from the cooling breeze
of the fountains.
Would you mind leaving
me off at the bus stop
in San Francisco
a runaway needs to make a call
back east
who has run out of bread
and grief
in a cavernous dawn
yet happy by practicing sax
half the day with shadows
in silences of musical directions
with a winter's pawned jacket
covered with memory echoes
and new riffs
of angel-winged spring.
Touch me
with your ephemeral spirit
of an exiled acceptance,
jostle me, Arthur
with your travel passport
under Africa's blazing sun,
grant me words
that move me with wonder
to share your secret language,
gently forgive me
from your open shirtsleeves
with no self-doubt
between your hands,
Remember me, Rimbaud
when my words are printed
on city graffiti walls,
whisper to us
across rented rooms
in the rainbow underground,
heal me
from your wounds
in the house of a friend.
Life is an agenda
full of charades
whether played
on soprano sax
or jazz fiddle
drawing ink portraits
it's a mind-bender
in the middle
of the road
on back alleys
or city hallways
in front of jams
traffic or music,
against a mountain
of winter storms
or in an avalanche
of sunshine
by paper flying cranes.
Hey, man on a roll
here is an eightieth high-five
to you, brother Elvis
still near my light shade
of my animated dawn
on our January 8th birthdays
so life won't be cruel
to us,
rock on through the night air
reaching us in invisible breath
from the hands
of first-light recognition.
Today's LittleNip:
A tapestry of red rugs
pointed from a blinding light
to a poet's secret language
we exist waiting
for understanding
as a verse suddenly
suddenly fills a watching eye
grateful to be astonished
by emerging spaces
of a fragment of a universe
in gestures of trembling
yielding a collection
of sheltered nature.

The majolica technique is anything but easy – it is a multi-phased process that takes time, patience, and exceptional skill. The earthenware clay is first bisque fired at around 1900° F. It is then painted or dipped in a creamy, oatmeal-colored glaze, made from silica, tin, calcium, and clay.
Once dry, artists paint designs over this base glaze with natural pigments (each color is made from a mineral – greens are chrome and copper, blue is cobalt, etc.). The pigments are absorbed into the base glaze, which is a porous surface similar to watercolor paper. Just like with watercolor, once applied, the pigments cannot be covered over or blended together, meaning there is no margin for error.
When the piece is fired again at a higher temperature, the glaze melts and fuses with the pigments. Because the end result is a product of chemical reactions between metal oxide colors, the glaze, and a precise firing temperature, it often takes the artist many trials before a new design is perfected.
While extremely time consuming and difficult, this process is what gives completed Majolica a distinctively warm look and feel. That's because instead of the color lying under a clear surface, the color is actually in the glaze and of the glaze. Sometimes referred to as "fat glaze," the result is more luscious and vivid. It's what draws us to Majolica, both visually and physically – making it difficult not to reach out and touch the surface of a beautifully glazed pitcher or serving platter.

If you've ever driven across the Midwest, then you have witnessed the enormous fields of corn—fields that envelop the interstate and stretch as far as the eye can see. Grown on nearly 350,000 farms nationwide, corn is the United States' largest crop. Why is it so popular? Well, for starters, corn as a plant is extremely adaptable and easy to grow and harvest.
Corn has received a lot of negative publicity lately. Its growth is heavily subsidized by the federal government, which offers a guarantee of payment to the farmer who dedicates his land to this particular crop. This has led to overabundance, to the point where much of the corn crop is destroyed each year. With overproduction also comes the need for creativity in the end uses; thus corn is now used as a feed substitute for livestock and poultry and a sugar substitute in the form of high fructose corn syrup. Neither of these is necessarily bad in and of itself, but the uniquely American mentality of "a little is good, more must be better" has proven to be flawed logic. Misuse and overconsumption of corn products are suspected to be root causes of many of the health issues so prevalent in our society today.
That said, the corn that you find at your local farmers' market or grocery store is completely different from the corn that artificially fattens our meat or sweetens our juice and soda. Field or dent corn makes up most of what is grown in the Midwest, while sweet corn is the variety commonly found on the dinner table. Much of the sweet corn available in our area is grown locally, which means that it is fresher and has less chance of becoming contaminated while in transit from field to table.
Corn on the cob is delicious. Melt a little butter and add some salt and you have a wonderful compliment to any barbecue. It really doesn't matter if it's boiled, grilled, steamed, or even microwaved—corn is a tasty addition to a summer meal. On top of that, it's good for you: low in fat, with relatively high amounts of protein, B vitamins, magnesium, and fiber. Not bad for a side dish.
You can drive through certain sections of Halifax, Middleboro, or Plympton and see the same endless fields of corn that you'd encounter on midwestern highways, except that these are sweet corn fields. Growers such as the Nessralla, Sauchuk, and Freitas families are known throughout the region for their delicious summer crops.
Darcy Freitas of Middleboro's Freitas Farm says that corn makes up about 60% of her annual crop, about 42 out of 70 acres. A huge hit at the 17 farmers' markets Freitas attends each week, sweet corn is a significant contributor to the farm's income. Plus, Freitas' crop (like most local corn) is free from genetic modification and the overuse of chemicals often found in more commercial products. "It's just regular, awesome, super-sweet corn," she says. "We don't do anything weird to it."
You can feel good about buying local corn because it supports our communities and keeps the money spent close to home. Buying directly from the farmer—at the farm stand or farmers' market—means you're putting money right into the farmer's pockets, helping our local agricultural scene to thrive, while promoting the preservation of farmland and other green spaces.
It stands to reason that if your food is produced across town rather than across the country, there is less of an environmental impact. Reducing the time needed to bring the product to the consumer also means that the corn doesn't need to be picked until it is fully mature. Thus, local corn is more likely to be packed with nutrients and offer the richest, most fulfilling taste.
So enjoy some seasonal local corn guilt-free. Not only is it nutrient-dense and delicious, but the benefits to our communities' hard-working farmers are immeasurable.
Watch for a feature article on this topic in a future issue of eSS.

Whether you grow it or buy it, local corn is available for an all-too-brief time. Here are two strategies for getting the most out of a short season:
1. Buy in bulk and squirrel it away for winter. Talk to your farmer about a volume discount and spend a few hours stocking your freezer with autumn gold. Husk ears and steam or boil in the usual way until just tender. Spread out ears to cool quickly, then slice off the kernels (or prep them cream-style; see corn oyster recipe below). Pack in zipper-lock bags, squeezing out all the air, and freeze. Cackle in a miserly fashion every time you open the freezer and behold your cache.
2. Gorge yourself on fresh corn while it's here. With any luck you'll tire of it after six weeks or so, taking the edge off the eventual downer when corn season comes to its inevitable close. Enjoy it straight up or try a new recipe every day. Here's a classic to get you started, from Plymouth home cook Marion Crocker.
