City Councilman Ejected From Studio
I have no idea if this news item is real - if I get really bored later I may research it - but if it didn't happen, it damn well should have!!
"T. Bubba Bechtol, part time City Councilman from Pensacola, Florida, was asked on a local live radio talk show the other day just what he thought of the allegations of torture of the Iraqi prisoners.
His reply prompted his ejection from the studio, but to thunderous applause from the audience."If hooking up an Iraqi prisoner's scrotum to a car's battery cables will save one American GI's life, then I have just two things to say: Red is positive, black is negative"

Pork Ribs for Mother's Day
I woke up on Saturday morning with a voice mail from my mom: I'm standing in the grocery store and I'm wondering how you cook ribs. Your grandmother and I got ribs for the grill and we were wondering what you put on them.
I'd never made ribs before and I hadn't even had them in a restaurant in a long time, but I slowly warmed up to the challenge.
I returned mom's call from the Port Authority bus station. Mom picked up and I told her what time I would be getting in and, of course, she mentioned the ribs again.
She said we'd figure out how to make the ribs and go back to the store to pick up the ingredients later. I was so close to saying that it wasn't really warm enough yet to grill outside and that ribs are really an odd thing to have for Mother's Day anyway, but then she started describing the ribs she'd been having in restaurants lately. Tender, sweet and smoky, with a great sauce. Yum! I got on the bus and started getting into the idea of grilling those ribs.
Saturday night we went online to look for recipes. Since we wanted some time to plant flowers, we didn't want anything that was too time consuming. I was suprised to see that even the "EZ" recipes called for cooking the ribs twice. An hour or more in the oven, and then some time on the grill plus simmer time for the sauce. We decided that we'd try this recipe from Martha's Everyday Food.
The next morning, after a quick stop at the grocery store for spices (ugh, it sure is annoying to spend a lot of money on little bottles of spices when you want to try a new recipe), mom, grandma and I got to work in the kitchen. First I made the spice rub for the ribs, while they started peeling all those potatoes for the potato salad.
The spice rub smelled very strong, but the recipe exlained that you needed a strong spice rub to be able to withstand the hour and a half in the oven and then the time on the grill. To be on the safe side, we left a quarter of one of the racks of rib with no spice rub.
Then the ribs went into the oven at 400 degrees for an hour and a half. We cooked them in tightly covered lasagna pans. This way, we made sure no grease went over the sides of the pan.
While the ribs were baking, we went to work on the sauce.
My brother M seems to have enjoyed our bbq sauce.
While the ribs were in the oven and the sauce was cooking down, we used the time to start putting in some plants. Here's mom and grandma at work on the deck.
For our first try making ribs, I thought they came out pretty good. Next time, I try ribs I think I would use brown sugar to sweeten the sauce instead of honey. I also think I'd like some vinegar in the sauce.
We had two full ribs to serve six. It was just enough meat. One rack of ribs had a lot more meat on it than the other. Maybe there's something you can say to the butcher to get more of the meaty ribs?
I got the grill heated up to 400 degrees before I lowerd the heat down to medium and put the ribs on the grill. Heating up the grill that hot was a mistake. The ribs got just a bit too browned, but I saved them before they were burned. Pshew.
Maybe a little too spicy for some in the crowd, but they didn't mention it.
And their potato salad was excellent, one of my favorites. Happy Mother's Day, Mom and Grandma!

Hey Everyone!!! Here is my first installment of my new segment, A Day in the Life of a Thrifter. Hopefully everyone caught a glimpse of my guest post at Citizen Rosebud about my pledge to buy only second hand for a whole year. Let me be clear that there will be stipulations. Like my underwear, socks, and tights will be new. Something about second hand undergarments gives me the creeps.
I wanted to give you some tips on a different kind of second hand buying, and that is consignment. All types of consignment shops work differently, but my latest experience was at Plato's Closet. I like Plato's Closet because it's instantaneous. Other consignment shops usually have you sign contracts, and then every quarter of the year they stroke you a check for a percent of your sales. I'm pretty impatient, so that is why I enjoy places like Plato's Closet.
On Sunday I cleaned out all the garments from my closet which I hadn't worn for a year or more, made sure they were neat, pressed, and folded and then lugged my bag to the store. It took about 15 minutes and they scoured through my things, picked out what they wanted and gave me 1/3 of the price of what they were selling them. That's not a whole lot, but I was trying to clean out my closet, not make a ton of money. Then I traded the money for these fine things. Say hello to my brand new beige oxfords, skinny jeans, and a cute spring-time dress!

I knitted these cute little baby socks as stockings for all the kids in my sunday school class ( I teach the 3 & 4 year olds). They each had a sweet and wee toy inside and the kids loved them.
The rest of my christmas knitting ground to a halt, the nativity kings still aren't finished, but I suppose they could get done in time for January and the hoodie is still waiting to get sewn up.
I decided to dig out the goddess knits mystery shawl, I ran out of yarn while doing the border on this so I ripped back the border last week and restarted it using black Jaggerspun zephyr (left over from MS3), so have been knitting that all week and finally finished last night, just got to block it now.
I'm now going to spend the rest of this year finishing off some of my outstanding WIP, so hopefully I should have some more finished things to show you this week.

As my legs dangled in the water, I noticed that eventually the seat of my jeans was wet. I figured it was because I had been moving around and denim, like most fabrics, eventually wicked some of the lake into itself. Or it could have been the local fisherman
I'm not sure how long we sat. An hour. Two. Long enough that a couple people eventually joined us. So there we were, eleven of us total, enjoying a beautiful afternoon. At one point I looked at one of the dock posts and said to Amy, "That post is leaning at about a thirty degree angle." About three minutes later we were sitting in chest high water.
That smudge on the picture? That is a drop of water. My camera was under water for a minute or two while I 1) figured out what was going on and why I was sitting in the water, and 2) grabbed my knitting bag and held it above water level. (I knew the camera was waterproof to a certain extent-- the reason I bought was a trip to an area where it rains a LOT-- I didn't realize I could dunk for an extended period of time and it would still work. Love it even more now.)
Grabbing the craft supplies was everyone's first instinct. Knitting held aloft we waded through what was left of the dock.
Luckily no one was hurt. One person lost their cell phone, and another lost a pattern (handwritten and designed by her, so irreplaceable) but that seems to be the extent of it.
Some people asked how many people we had on the dock. To this I say, don't build a thirty foot dock if it can't hold eleven women. Just sayin'.

Prairie Carpet Cleaning
We had a new experience the other day. It temporarily left me in a mood that I think my child would prefer to never see again. I hope he remembers that the next time he has a little too much free time. You see, I was mowing the yard. And he was outside with me. I would wave and he would wave back. For a while he even pushed his plastic lawn mower around the yard. At one point I didn't see him anymore. I hoped that maybe he was just in the garage playing. I thought to myself, "should I go check on him?" But I decided to just keep plugging away so I could get finished.
He came back out and seemed to be just fine. This happened twice. And finally I was done and went in the house. Everything seemed to be just fine. Until...
I was going out with the girls to dinner and the rodeo in just a little bit. I needed to get cleaned up and ready to go. This was Monica the Magnificent's last few days in Wyoming. We were going to make the most of it. And Reba the Radiant was going too. So I headed downstairs to take a shower. The rest is self explanatory:
Did you catch that The Prairie Kid said "the toof-paste office" instead of "bathroom"?!? Did you here him try to blame it on Daddy? Did he seriously think I would have believed that considering Daddy wasn't even around? I guess you can't blame a kid for trying but that ain't flyin' at this prairie house!
I was really thinking there was no way I would be able to get the toothpaste out of the carpet. Thankfully we have a Dirt Devil Carpet Scrubber and without too much hassle it did the trick. I don't think it would've come out if it had dried out much.
I think I'll try to stick to mowing while The Toothpaste-Loving Prairie Kid is taking a nap.

Sad News, Ranger has gone over the Bridge
Sadly, we had to let Ranger go this past Saturday, November 1 2008. He was 15 years old, and just has handsome and personable as ever.
I was the lucky adoptee of a beautiful 9 year old Ranger some years ago. He moved into the house to keep our other older dogs company, at the time those were Boomer, Blanche and Blue Dog. He loved to sleep on the hearth in the kitchen, and that became his place. He loved to go for walks, and he would have worked in harness for more years if I had the time to run him. But he was a part of our retired house crew, enjoying walks and the grassy backyard play area, the visit of puppies and the dinner parties where he got to be the center of attention. I learned that he loved everyone, even kids, and would let kids snuggle into his bed or come and find them to kiss them. He got along with every dog here, and never would lower himself to a dog argument or fight.
His down fall was spondylosis, a degenerative arthritis of the spine. He very rapidly began to suffer and to not be able to walk. Within a week I went from wondering if he was feeling 100% to helping him stand, balance and walk. It was so fast. He was frustrated and in pain. I tried to make him comfortable and to make up for his lack of strength, sensation and control of his legs, but it did not help. He was buried here at Torsey Farm, out in a pretty pasture, next to his old friend Boomer.
We miss him terribly, and love him deeply. He was one of the best dogs on earth, and we were blessed and lucky to have gotten a chance to love him and enjoy his great personality and stunning good looks.

I have tried one of Shiseido's cleansing oils, and I love it! It does a great job at removing long staying foundations like Revlon Colorstay and my eye makeup (mostly eyeliner.) However, it does make my skin feel a bit dry afterwards if I don't follow up washing my face with another product. The one from Shiseido is quite pricey, so I probably wont' be repurchasing; however, I definitely will try another cleansing oil!ReplyDelete
Yeah, it seems like a lot of the cleansing oil formulas are quite similar but like you, I'd love to try more!Delete
I still have yet to try a cleansing oil but this post really reminded me to go out and try one! My facial cleanser isn't quite cutting it with getting all my makeup off. :)ReplyDeleteReplies

I totally agree! Micellar waters don't even get all my face makeup off, let alone mascara and eye makeup.Delete
Never tried a cleansing oil before, more of a micellar water kind of girl hahaReplyDelete
Ellie xx | http://theleobeauty.blogspot.co.ukReplies
You should! I understand why you would like micellar waters better, I like them for when I'm wearing lighter makeup, but cleansing oil really removes everything!Delete
i've seen this oil in stores before but like you mentioned all the language on it seemed confusing to me! glad that this worked out for you, i'm definitely a fan of cleansing oils - they are so effective in taking off makeup! i remember really enjoying the shu uemura and neutrogena versions of cleanse off oils in the past, but for now i am smitten with the clinique take the day off cleansing balm :) xxReplyDelete

I totally picked it up on a whim! I still really want to try that balm cleanser!Delete
Sounds like you does what you need it to do! I always only strictly use cleansing oils on my eye area where waterproof or long lasting stuff is concerned. Have you tried biores' cleansing gel? it's fantastic stuff!ReplyDeleteReplies
No I haven't tried Biore's cleansing gel, I'm not sure if they sell it here but maybe they do!Delete
I absolutely love oils to cleanse with! This sounds great :)ReplyDelete

GRAHAM & NORTON CO.v.ELEVATOR SUPPLIES CO., INC.
Appeal from the District Court of the United States for the District of Delaware; Hugh M. Morris, Judge.
Author: Thomson
Before BUFFINGTON and THOMPSON, Circuit Judges, and THOMSON, District Judge.
THOMSON, District Judge.
While suit was brought on three patents, the Bassett patent is the only one before us. This patent relates to signal systems for elevators. It is of the type where the passenger, on entering the car, announces his destination to the operator, who then presses the appropriate button of an annunciator on the car. When the car approaches the floor announced, a signal is automatically displayed in the car, reminding the operator that he is expected to stop at that floor. At the end of the run in either direction, the signal mechanism is reset. There is a button-set mechanism for each floor, in combination with a car controlled circuit completing apparatus, which causes the display of the signals at the proper points. A feature of the operation is that any number of the buttonset mechanisms are operable together, so as to register in advance the number of stop signals to be displayed. A two-brake circuit controls the signal lamp. For the signal lamp to flash, it is necessary that both brakes in the circuit be closed. One brake is closed by the push button; the other is closed by the brushes carried by the "traveler," which carries any desired number of bridging contacts, to bridge any number of normally open circuits with the travel of the car. There are thus two essentials in a "pre-registering" system, namely, the closing of the first brush in the circuit by means of a push button, and the closing of the second brake of the circuit at the "commutator," by the approach of the car to the signalled floor. In addition to these, there is provided means for restoring the button controlled switches, after they have served their purpose of flashing the signal to the operator. The conducting brush or traveler is so placed as to travel across the segment conducting the current, and is connected electrically to the switch controlled by the push button. The defendant's apparatus is a "pre-registering" system. It has a car operator's flash, and push buttons mounted in the car. A two-brake circuit is provided for each floor, with the operator's flash signal connected to each of the circuits during the car's progress, by means of the "selector." The operation of the push button energizes a magnet, which closes the first brake of the circuit, and it remains closed until the car has passed beyond the signaled floor.Both important features of the Bassett patent, namely, the closing of the first brake by a push button on the car, and the closing of the second brake in the same circuit by the "traveler," are present in the defendant's apparatus. In Bassett, restoration is effected at the end of the travel of the elvator, while in defendant's apparatus, restoration is effected at or after leaving each floor, after the signal has been given. Neither the invention, nor the claims of the patent, are limited to these details. The Bassett patent employs one bridging contact or brush to perform two functions, one closing the circuit to the signal lamp, and the other opening the button controlled switch. The defendant employs two bridging contacts or brushes, which are carried by a single traveler; the result being effected by the single brush of Bassett. There is no serious attack onthe validity of the patent. The patent being valid, we think infringement is established, as it appears that defendant has employed the same combination of elements, which operate the same way, producing the same result by substantially the same means.
The judgment is affirmed.

Why? Why do I have to raise questions? Why do I have to seek answers? Why do I have to think about anything what so ever? Why???
You can never have a totally neutral starting point when it comes to doing anything. You can never start from a point at which you have no belief what so ever. Lacking any sort of belief to start with will leave you incapable of gaining any. You will stay where you are enclosed in silence incapable of stating anything or moving in any direction.
One might think that to start philosophizing about something, one has to start from a position at which he stands neutral to all possible beliefs. Neutrality to all possible beliefs might seem as an essential requirement for a fair process of thinking. But this doesn't work as a starting point in philosophizing. Neutrality in such case is itself a belief. Being neutral to it would lead one into questioning it as well. This assumption of importance of neutrality leads to one of the most vicious circularities you can ever think of. It will leave where you are, incapable of moving any forward. Neutrality to all possible beliefs is itself a self negating belief. One can't hold on it if he is to be really neutral at heart.
Therefore, we should drop this requirement. The right place to start in philosophizing or to do anything, to state any claim, or to move in any direction is to have a set of beliefs which you take at least initially to be basic and unquestionable at least for the moment. This line of argument that I have offered so far bears a clear resemblance to the school of skeptic thought intiated by Descartes centuries ago. Descartes too thought that the right point to start philosophizing is take a skeptic stance, questioning all sorts of beliefs and in effect standing neutral to all of them. He attempted to break free from this vicious circle of neutrality by arguing that this process of thinking, going on in his mind while being skeptic to all sorts of beliefs, is itself an evidence for a belief that one has no option but to accept, namely one's own existence as a thinking entity. He therefore, raised his most famous claim "Cogito ergo sum"; "I think therefore, I am". But, it is obvious that concluding the Cogito can't be reached unless one takes lots of beliefs to be basic and acceptable prior to the Cogito itself. One has to hold on beliefs about the rationality of our thinking, how something can stand as evidence for something else, and that what we are involved in while being skeptic or neutral to all possible beliefs is itself a form of thinking. Why shouldn't we be skeptic about those beliefs just as well if we are really committed to Descartes' skeptic program? Descartes'' methodology in philosophy is infected with vicious circularity just in the same way as insistence on neutrality is. Following his school of thought will leave us exactly as we are, having nothing to start with.
Again, we can't move in any direction unless we take some beliefs to be basic at least for a while. But what those beliefs might be? I think a set of beliefs which can mark a starting point for philosophizing or for merely moving in any direction can be minimally summed into the following:
· One's own existence
· One's ownership of the faculty of thinking
· Existence of beliefs, at least this initial set, as a starting block for the process of thinking
· One's ownership of a variety of motives including the motive to move or to act at least intellectually.
But are those beliefs really enough? Those beliefs will be void of content if they can't be explained by another set of beliefs. It is not enough to hold on those beliefs. One must have in addition, beliefs about what existence is, what thinking is, what beliefs really are, and what it is to be motivated to do anything. This set of additional beliefs must as well be accepted at least initially to make us capable of moving forward. Beliefs specifying the content of the other basic set of beliefs one must hold on to start moving forward, will make up an ontology in which you can have your starting point. Throughout human history, different ontologies have been created. Some persisted and some perished. Anyway, one must have a particular ontology formed of a set of beliefs taken for granted, again at least initially, to be capable of moving, of doing, and of living.
Holding on ontological commitments is the starting point for philosophizing, for thinking, for acting, and for anything that makes you who you are.
Among, those various ontolgies available for us to adopt, one is particularly interesting. Even though religious and naturalistic ontologies seem to be the most interesting but it is the solipsist ontology which is really peculiar. This ontology seems to be the most minimal of any ontologies we can ever think of. This ontology is based on the view that nothing exists but one's own mind and what is going on in it. If ontologies can be stated explicitly in a finite set of basic beliefs, solipsism will provide us with the most limited one. But can solipsism be a successful ontology as a starting point? I will argue not but I will leave this to a later time.

One does worry.
Until we can elicit a value to shared and dedicated nodes/messages + the organisational superorganism as a whole, risk and the quantification thereof is a joke.... unfortunately shared infrastructure and services such as routing/DNS/SNMP/NTP/logging *are* business critical e.g. data and control planes including management control planes. http://twitter.com/irldexter/status/1087480944

This year is slated to be a big one for wireless charging as many attainable goals are expected to happen throughout the course of 2016 propelling the market forward more than ever before, according to research from IHS.
As the wireless power industry gears up for its strategies in 2016 and beyond, here is what IHS believes will be the five wireless charging trends of the year:
1) iPhone 7—IHS says that although Apple's specifications are hard to come by, it would be difficult to ignore the adoption of wireless charging by its competitors. "It is highly likely that the next iPhone will be equipped with this technology, although it won't become clear until days before launch which standard (or even which proprietary technology) they might choose," says David Green, research manager, power supplies and wireless power at IHS.
2) The rise of tri-modal receivers—With the commercial launch of Rezence-standard receivers slated to begin in 2016 for both mobile phones and notebooks, Green says it will be interesting to see what choices smartphone manufacturers make this year. While they could ignore the growing adoption of inductive solutions in favor of Rezence-only solutions, "it is far more likely that mobile phone manufacturers will choose multi-mode receiver solutions, in the pursuit of interoperability and the best possible consumer experience," Green says.
3) Satisfaction among wireless power users to drop—A recent IHS survey had responders saying those that had used wireless charging in the past come out in favor of the technology overwhelmingly saying they would use it again in their next device. However, as the technology gains more consumer adoption, satisfaction with the technology is likely to decline as some negative experiences are recorded, IHS says.
4) One million public wireless charges installed—This year, IHS forecasts the one-millionth wireless charger will be installed into a public infrastructure. While not all of them are still functioning or in use, it is a major milestone for the technology as well as a way that businesses, hotels, restaurants and other commercial establishments can entice consumers with free and convenient power.
5) Uncoupled technology takes a step forward—Uncoupled wireless charging in 2016 will be a year of development. With the Internet of Things (IoT) taking off, it will play to the strengths of uncoupled technology that provides low power at higher distances. "We do not expect mainstream product launches of uncoupled wireless-charging receivers; arguably those will not enter the market until 2017, at the earliest," Green says. "However, in 2016 we expect to see at least one major original equipment manufacturer sign development agreements within the uncoupled space."

We are midway through January 2012 and winter has come to Maine at last.
In the form of snow and various outher precips depending on where you are, and deep cold descended from across the country. Although, as we are really about as far north as you can go in the contiguous states, I suppose it didn't descend, simply pushed.
Today the sun rose brightly, sparkling over the ocean which was gloriously blue, making blue shadows on the snow as it crossed from east to west and went down with a lovely warm red.
But the temperatures, in spite of the sun, did not get out of the low teens in the Scarborough area. I made a short trip to the Maine Veterans' Home, as I do every Sunday, and then to the grocery store for a fresh salad, and dog food, and it was bitterly cold just going from my car to the buildings and back to the car. I put on a coat. Now you might think that an odd note, but I do not wear a coat much of the time. I carry one in my car - just in case I have to get out - but seldom wear it. Today I got out my heavy wool topcoat and was glad for it. Tomorrow I may hunt up a scarf if the temperature stays low.
There is a pond - I have been told it is an acre in size - which is part of our community property. All winter it has been open and frequently there have been ducks and geese resting in it. Today it is frozen solid for the first time. Because of insurance issues, no one uses it , but it looks like it would be a perfect place for a leisurely skate; no hockey allowed!
I heard a crow this morning which was hoarse. His gravelly caw had me looking to see if I could see him; I could not. But he sounded really distressed. Poor crow.
As I looked out tonight I saw that the snow has a hard glistening crust. When I was young my mother and I used to walk to my grandmothers across a pasture land which had such a hard deep crust, we could walk on it without sinking in. Good thing, that, because there was at least 18 inches of snow under the crust. The area beside my bedroom looks like it is covered with boiled frosting. Ummmm.
Maine is deep in winter. The turkeys are deep in the woods. The foxes are in their dens. Not even the squirrels came out today.
Tomorrow will be another day for most of us.

CAIRO (AP) — An Egyptian Health Ministry official says at least 34 people have been killed in an attack outside the headquarters of the Republican Guard in Cairo.
Khaled el-Khatib said Monday that initial reports indicated 34 people were killed and 300 wounded in shooting outside the building. Earlier, Egyptian military officials had said gunmen killed at least five supporters of the former president and one officer when people tried to storm the building.


text: This weekend I took a page out of my own blog and made a couple of Sophie bags. The red one is felted and the purple one is ready to be felted. I love knitting things to felt since they are so fast! I made a couple of changes to the pattern as it is written: I skipped the first decreases (there were only 4 decrease rounds in my bags) and I didn't twist the handles, I just made them as regular I-cord. I also added stripes just for fun and I'm very happy with the way they came out. It was a wonderful weekend of brainless knitting and now I'm ready to get back to some lace charts! (After I felt the purple bag of course!)

Moss Roses in a Vase
Oil on canvas
Acquired by Sterling and Francine Clark, 1924
"The thing Manet is least interested in is flowers. What he is interested in is how the flowers are jammed into the vase. They're stuffed in and the life is squeezed out of them. What happens underneath the flowers—what we see through the water, the effects of water and the shapes created—is what this painting is about."

"I love the amazing double transparency of the glass vase and the water. The slate blue background and the pale pinks in the roses play off each other and the shine on the vase. There's a subtle distortion from the curve of the glass on the contents. No complicated reason I love it—the subject, colors, and paint handling all just appeal to me."

There is a ridiculous little organisation here in the UK called Straight Pride UK. According to themselves, it is a few people who have been so incensed about not being able to voice their displeasure about us homosexuals that they have felt the need to band together to make a change.
This change appears to consist of sending press releases to reporters such as the young British blogger and journalist Oliver Hotham who, of course, posted information derived from said press release on his blog. He shouldn't have done that, because Straight Pride UK got a little bit upset.
Being a UK organisation acting against a UK blogger they used American law to send a DMCA notice to WordPress about the info that Oliver posted. As Oliver is a poor journalist he after the takedown decided not to fight any such thing, and didn't protest the removal of the article. However, Straight Pride UK was not satisfied, and pressed the blogger to remove any reference to the organisation.
Okay, we can point and laugh at the silliness of this organisation, but what is worthy of note is that WordPress, this site that hosts my blog, apparently took the DMCA at face value. According to Oliver:
I thought this was a good enough defence, and I assumed this would all be swept under the carpet, and that their rather sad attempts to remove my article because it made them look stupid were all for naught.
I was wrong – within a few days WordPress caved to them without question, removing my article and telling me if I tried to publish it again I'd be suspended, but that I could challenge the takedown of my article. I responded that yes, I very much would like to, and was emailed a form I'd have to fill in. One of the requirements was that I "consent to local federal court jurisdiction, or if overseas, to an appropriate judicial body".
I'm a student. I don't have the money, time, or patience to go through with potentially having to go to court over this. All in all, I just could not be bothered to challenge the decision.
So I accepted the takedown, feeling thoroughly shit about myself.
Then I get another email from Straight Pride UK, which pissed me off even more. They demanded I take down the material (which I had) but also that I:
"…remove all references to Straight Pride UK, The Straight Forward Project, along with images, and links, from your Blog."
That is far more alarming than a ridiculous organisation here in Britain being up to no good, and this should make British bloggers take note. We are not subject to US laws, and our freedom of speech and our freedom of the press should not be subject to laws of the United States.
Granted, flagrant breaches of the law like posting genuinely copyrighted material, should probably be subject to sanction – but this blatant attempt to censor illustrate the chilling effect on free speech that is at play here.

Some cats making a meal of whatever lizard is foolish enough to enter the house or the garage. The received wisdom is that the skin of these lizards is toxic, so cats should not be allowed to eat them.

Two Picture Songbooks for Christmas
Jungle Bells, sung by Anika Moa, illus. Stephanie Thatcher, Scholastic NZ
If you've been waiting for Scholastic's usual pre-Christmas offerings of picture songbooks with CDs, here are two of them (see also review below). This one is sung in light-hearted fashion by a popular New Zealand singer, and illustrated by a favourite artist, so it can't go wrong. I recited the words of the song (presumably written by Scholastic staff?) to myself, and decided that Anika Moa's version is the best way to approach this. Stephanie's cheerful illustrations of jungle animals are full of action and colour and reward extra examination with little extras in the pictures. I can see that children's librarians and teachers of children aged about three to five will find this book useful for activities combining looking, singing and maybe some movement.
ISBN 978 1 77543 364 4 RRP $21 Pb
Dingle Dangle Scarecrow, sung by the Topp Twins, illus. Jenny Cooper, Scholastic NZ
This is the fifth book in the popular illustrated songbook series begun by There's a Hole in My Bucket. I have to admit I'm not familiar with the song but it certainly bounces along with lots of repetition in this version merrily sung by the Topp Twins. Jenny Cooper's humorous illustrations are a delight – as usual. I enjoyed reading the information about the singers and the illustrators on the fold-over flap – on both this book and the one reviewed above. Who'd have guessed that Jenny Cooper had trouble drawing cows?? This book will also appeal to librarians and teachers of young children, and I imagine that given the words of the chorus about shaking hands and feet, it offers a good opportunity for children to stand and use up some energy. I'm not going to say which book is better – my advice is buy them both!

Chosen accepted for publication!!
Yippee. My psychological suspense novel - Chosen - has been accepted for publication by Decadent Publishing. I'm thrilled to bits. It's a dark story of revenge and how far people will go in pursuit of that. This will be my first venture into this genre - though I do have two similar novels sitting in the bottom of my closet that I doubt will ever see the light of day and one on my laptop about the Russian Mafiya - that might!

No doubt, Chosen will open the doors for a new set of fans. A dark tale that deals with serious human issues, and then somehow still manages to find that happy ending, makes for one unforgetable story.
Congrats on finding a publisher who understands that.

Get my Head in the Game!
Yes, ours is a home full of music... High School Music(al)! We (had) to watch it again this afternoon (ah, it was number three, I think). We didn't even know what it was until after HSM2 came out. But believe me, we caught up fast! I could list the merchandise we have but I'm sure we both have better things to do. I was a little wary of the whole HSM phenomenon at first, but I checked it out on an excellent, valuable resource called Plugged In Online.
Why on earth would I even bring it up?! Cause I have 'getcha getcha getcha getcha head in the game' stuck in my head. (For the uninitiated, song when Cutie on the left tells blue-eyes to think about the task at hand- basketball).
I hope to get alot of projects done this week: the foyer wallpaper done, stamping supplies all put away, finish setting up the office space, replacing lightbulbs, weeding the backyard. Not to mention starting the weather unit from Earth Science. I ordered a barometer from Ebay and it hasn't arrived from Canada yet. I'm glad it's still rainy so that our weather data doesn't just say 100' 100' 100' every day like it will soon enough. On the other hand, the soccer field was too wet for poor Jackson to play last week.
Today the pastor at our church was *totally*on*fire*for*the*gospel* and if you want you can check out the sermon here. Its lesson 2 of 6 in a series called "Leap of Doubt."

Comedians out in force to protest kazoo ban
Kazoo lovers across the world were in mourning this week as Camden Council announced that the instrument's high-pitched and annoying, sorry, playful, pips would be out of bounds on the streets of Camden Town. The council passed new street entertainment policy on Monday that will require buskers to hold a licence to play a wind and percussion instrument. The flute and recorder are exempt from the law; not so the humble kazoo . Most forms of amplified music will be banned (buskers can apply for an exception in some circumstances) and the council wants to restrict performers to playing between 10am and 9pm.
'I'm pleased that the Council chose to prioritize Camden residents by supporting the policy. I think there's a misconception that all buskers are harmless characters playing a few songs on an acoustic guitar, but in reality, Camden residents have to deal with extremely loud buskers, often with amplification, who perform outside our homes for ten or eleven hours at a time. Residents should be entitled to the quiet enjoyment of their homes, but with loud busking right outside, it's impossible to concentrate on anything besides the disruption,' said Camden Town resident Jessica Kranish, 26.
'We cannot allow the lives of people who live and work in Camden to be disrupted by noise nuisance," said Camden Council Cabinet member for Community Safety, Councillor Abdul Hai.
At the end of last month the self-styled Citizen's Kazoo Orchestra headed by comedians Mark Thomas and Bill Bailey, alongside Billy Bragg, led a kazoo-tootling crowd in front of Camden Town tube in a rousing rendition of the Star War's Death March to protest the plans.
'London is a vibrant, exciting and lively place and we want it to stay like that,' said Thomas, who said he thought the new proposal was a 'draconian law' that smacked of 'social cleansing'. According to Thomas the council shouldn't introduce a new law, but should set up a forum whereby entertainers, business owners and residents could work out any problems.
'If the people in Camden who are living this cutting edge life can't put up with a few people standing in a street singing, "Take you by the hand and let me take you around the streets of Camden," then it's musical incorrectness gone mad,' said Billy Bragg.
Now, where's my vuvuzela? Rebecca Taylor

Thinking about William Morris
Between you and me, I'm overwhelmed. Everything feels very touch and go. I am one day away from swallowing the prescribed radioactive iodine and I can't say I don't have reservations about what is about to take place. I've been to the hospital twice in two days to receive a shot deep into my ass muscle that will hide the effects of the synthetic hormone Liothyronine during the prescribed nuclear scan.
I discovered a few days ago that I have likely been under dosing my Liothyronine. My lifeline. I've been brain foggy and was feeling like my world was closing in on me. I was pretty sure it was the early signs of dementia, seriously. I was doing everything slowly. I found myself in a kitchen filled with young people buzzing about and I could not keep up with the conversation. It was frightening. I thought it was hunger from the prescribed diet and that was probably a factor but it wasn't the whole story. In 9 months I have gone from having one healthy thyroid that I thought worked pretty well—although now I have some doubts—to half a healthy thyroid, and now no thyroid. At first the medication made me jittery so backing off on it seemed the right thing to do but I went too far obviously.
I am struck. I am without a part of my body that I barely noticed or even understood and now I am tasked with accepting the reality of living with a dependency on medication that I don't quite recognize the effects of. It all makes me want to break down and cry. In the hospital yesterday morning waiting for Mark to park the car I just wanted to weep big poor-me-tears. In that vast waiting area, so somber, so many sick people coming in and out. It felt scary and bewildering. I felt lonely there and loneliness is not something I generally think about but this whole process makes me feel profoundly lonely. It is my job alone to carry my body through this medical obstacle course. The shots make me feel sick so I can't do too much, the whole thing is distracting me from what I would rather be thinking about. Stress causes cancer you know. This is the ridiculousness of the whole exercise. Dealing with cancer can give you cancer.
My friend who has the same cancer as me but in more sites started her low-iodine odyssey yesterday. I stopped by today to give her a hug. She reminded me that I was almost done. Friday is the scan and then I can return to normal. Another new normal.

Cody McCormick-a Perfect Role
The head honchos of the Buffalo Sabres huddled together about half an hour after their recent victory over the Florida Panthers. The teams had played evenly for four minutes and fifty-five seconds of overtime. Tyler Myers had slipped over the Cats blueline, and had blasted a slap shot at the Panthers' net. Vokoun reacted just a tad slowly. The biscuit was in the basket. The red light scorched the plexiglass. Game over.
I caught up with Sabres' coach Lindy Ruff in the coach's room after the game. I told him I was penning some words on Cody McCormick. He beamed: "Cody has been a great role player for us. He is a fine two-way player." Great praise from the veteran coach.
Last fall, McCormick went into the Sabres camp looking for employment in the NHL. He had spent the previous season with the AHL affiliate Portland team, and had played three playoff games for the Sabres. He had registered almost 200 games in the NHL in previous years, and another 200 in the AHL with a variety of teams: Hershey, Lowell, Albany, Lake Erie, and Portland.
McCormick had arrived in Buffalo as a free agent in August, 2009. But he began his quest to become a bona fide NHL player in 2001, after a brilliant OHL career with the Belleville Bulls. He was drafted in the Fifth Round, 144th overall in that draft by the Colorado Avalanche. In his final year with the Bulls, he was chosen as an OHL First Team All Star, and led the team in goals and penalty minutes. He was selected in a coaches' poll as the "Hardest Worker" in the Conference. That, in a nut shell, tells you something about Cody McCormick.
In the recent game in Florida, Cody had a brief encounter with Darcy Hordichuk, the Panthers designated scrapper. This was early in the first period, they danced for a moment or two, then headed to the penalty box to serve five minute majors. At six feet three inches, tipping the scales at around two hundred and twenty pounds, McCormick does not shy away from the tough stuff. He leads the Sabres in penalties, and commands great respect from the opposition while on the ice.
Stirling's Rob Roy has seen his fair share of hockey in Buffalo for many years, both as a player and as a media observer. He often does colour for Sabres television, and has become a well respected analyst. He did not mince words when assessing Cody's performance this year. "Cody McCormick has done an awesome job this year," he told me. "He has been the most consistent performer with the team. He works his tail off each and every game."
When asked about his own personal performance this season, Cody deferred to the team approach. "At this point in the season, we are trying to get into the playoffs. This was a game we really needed," he told me after the overtime win.
The Sabres were accompanied on the trip by several family members. I recognized Cody's dad from his many visits to the Quinte Sports Centre. He had made the trip from Mount Brydges, near London, and he told me that he has enjoyed several games in Buffalo this year. "It's closer than Belleville," he told me, with a hint of justifiable pride in his voice.
The Sabres left the Sunshine State with two victories under their belts. They are on a bit of a roll, having won five of their last six games. In their game against Tampa Bay, McCormick tussled for the puck behind the Lightning net. He slid the slickest pass out to Thomas Vanek to earn an assist, and his fifteenth point this season. Yet another way in which McCormick contributes to the Sabres' fortunes this year.

It was only about 50 years ago when scooters and mopeds began taking over the world. Companies such as Cushman, Vespa, Lambretta, Puch, Motobecane and Allstate proved that these two wheeled vehicles provided a inexpensive form of transportation which granted their owners an endless amounts of freedom. These vehicles sparked a transportation boom that still continues. Today we are on the cusp of a new, green transportation revolution, and I'm convinced that similarly to the past, scooters and mopeds will provide a flashpan of growth for this new type of transportation. I've compiled a list of my thoughts on the current state of the scooter market, where I think there is opportunity for growth, and ultimately where it will end up in the future.
It's a well known fact that the USA is a strange scooter market when compared to most other countries. Like their motorcycle cousins, scooters and mopeds are seen more as recreational vehicles or weekend toys when compared to the uses of similar bikes in Europe or Asia. Another interesting difference in the USA market is the popularity of vintage models. In most other countries vintage or vintage-style scooters are rarely seen or sold. America is a completely different story with vintage-style new bikes dominating the sales figures.
Another interesting trend I've noticed over the last year or so is the growth in popularity of electric two-wheeled vehicles, or LEVs. Recently Lithium-Ion battery technology has advanced to a point that makes reasonable commuting distances on an electric two wheeler possible. While there hasn't been a mass adaption to LEVs yet, the inevitability of rising fuel prices make this adaption a matter of when and not if. This period reminds me of about eight or ten years ago when I bought my first generation iPod. It was small and different but it attracted attention. Most people didn't know much about MP3 players but were very interested in checking out the iPod whenever I used it. Needless to say the iPod is on generation 7 or 8 and is a huge seller. I don't think the coming electric scooter and moped boom will be that dis-similar to the iPod phenomenon of the early in mid 2000s. Unfortunately there hasn't been an electric scooter or moped that has been built, that is truly mass appealing to the America market. This boom won't happen until that mass appealing model is built.
Obviously you can see where this is going. Why not take the best of both worlds and combine a revoultionary green electric motor with the soul of a vintage scooter and/or moped. I envision a modern interpretation of a classic moped ala the what SYM has done for gas scooters with their Symba. You could call it the Allstate Moped II or a MotoBecane Mobyylette Deux and power it with around a fairly powerful electric motor that would keep up with conventional gas scooters, easily be capable of highway legal top speeds, and even get a little exercise while pedaling to extend the range. As far fetched a concept as this seems, a similar strategy has been very successful in the musical instrument industry for which I worked in a previous lifetime. Danelectro is a guitar manufacturer which for years has built modern interpretations of various Sears-Roebuck catalog guitars from the 60s. While their models aren't exact copies of the Sear guitars, they preserve enough original flavor and soul for its customers to instantly identify with their products. This is what the electric bikes need to take the next step towards mass adaptation.
Gas bikes will never die off completely, but I see a future where they are by far the minority and reduced only to hardcore enthusiasts. Maybe 50 years from now we'll look back on this period as the calm before the electric vehicle storm. Only time will tell.

What Is A Out Of Body Experience?
Published: 03rd August 2012
Views: N/A
The first time I was lying in bed and I woke up and saw my sister asleep next to me and then felt my 'soul' leaving my body. It was as if it was being pulled out of my physical body. The experience was terrifying, it was the probably the most scared I've ever been, in fact. What is really quite strange about it though is that at the time I thought it was God pulling my soul out of my body. The reason this is strange is because, although I am baptized Catholic, I'm not in any way a practicing Christian. Anyway, when I thought that God was pulling me out, I felt such terror that in my head I just kept repeating strongly 'NO', 'NO, 'NO' - over and over again, about 10 times. Eventually after the 10 times, I was 'snapped' back into my body. I say 'snapped' because that is the only way I can describe it - it's like I was being pulled by elastic and it was stretched and then let go when I was dropped back into my body.
This happened to me again a year or so later and this time I wasn't as scared (and I'd read up on it a little bit) so I decided to try and 'go with it' to see what would happen. I let my soul go out almost to the point where it was out of my body but chickened out at the last second and said no and again I was snapped back into my body. I think what was holding me back was the idea that if you leave your body and then wake up, you die. I didn't really know how I would get back in if I got out.
These experiences have really intrigued me. I think of myself as a fairly spiritual person; I enjoy yoga, I like poetry, I try to get time on my own to think etc. Sometimes I also feel I am a lot more perceptive than the average person and can be very affected by vibes and people's behavior. I'm not sure if anyone else has had a similar experience of being terrified and feeling their soul leaving their body but I would like to hear about it if so.
Thanks for reading.
Hi JPR,
I read your story and thought that I would add a little information in the hope that it will help a little. First, you must understand that none of this has anything to do with you religiously. These experiences are of a mystical nature and are connected to all human beings regardless of their beliefs.
Another point that I wanted to make was that this is not your soul that you are experiencing--This is your astral body. With your astral body you explore the Kingdom of Heaven, in western religious terms. As the Soul you are in the Kingdom of God.
Dont get me wrong, everything is God therefore, everything is Gods territory. Using the symbolism of the Tree of Knowledge; think of it as a dividing point between the two Kingdoms. This physical world is outside the Kingdom of God, in the Kingdom of Heaven. And if you were to leave your body and look around you may discover other realms to explore.
When you operate in the territories of the Kingdom of Heaven, you will have the ability to act as you do in this life. In other words, to decide to come and go and also analyze what is happening as you have your various experiences, etc. This will be the case regardless what higher realms or worlds you go to.
What you are experiencing in the astral world is not the Soul. To experience the Soul you have to be closer to God, so you would be on the other side of the symbolic Tree of Knowledge. In this territory you know you are your Soul because there, there is no you to remember or any memory of the world from which you came. When I say this, I mean NOTHING from this world comes with you over there. Not even your present concept of what God is comes with you to this place.
In the Kingdom of God, you just see mentally as a witness. You cant even analyze what is happening to you at the moment everything is taking place. Instead you must wait until you leave the Kingdom of God and return to the Kingdom of Heaven and this physical realm, to contemplate what had happened. In the Kingdom of God there isnt a sense of self. That you acquire at the symbolic Tree of Knowledge on your way back into the physical realms.
For future travels out of body, let your-self go and explore. Dont worry about dying. If you get to experience the Soul, as I have, you will see that the information weve received is truethe Soul which is our real Self, does last for an eternity.
Even if you leave your body and stay in your room, take advantage of the moment and just sit outside of your body and continue to meditate. Who knows, maybe that will help you to drop the astral body and finally experience yourself as the Soul?
Ive had an
out of body experience
and your right it is scary. When I slammed back into my body, I nearly jumped two feet high out of my bed. Remember you are the creator as He has manifested himself as you. There isnt a real you, only the appearance of you, so there is nothing that can hurt you, but your imagination.
Believe this above statement and go learn about whats out there then find a way to help others to not be afraid of dying and death. Tell your stories and let everyone know that they will always be okay in life and in death.

We had the great pleasure of seeing Treasure Hunt teams from across Kent all descend upon Gravesend for a morning of seeing the presence of God move in the local community for NKCC.
We met at Emmanuel Baptist Church (it was great that they loaned us their building!) in the morning and had a time of testimony and worship (led excellently by Dave Webster) before splitting into teams and getting our clues.
There were around 20 people spread across 6 teams and every team went out and most came back encouraged with testimonies of how they had found clues and found treasure.
One team approached a lady who matched several clues and said to her "God wants to do something amazing for you today" - The lady immediately responded, whilst choking back tears. Recently her experience of life had been really difficult with death and illness running through her family and effecting her in many different ways. The team encouraged her and prayed for her and left her with a massive hug and a beaming smile - God is good!
Really looking forward to the next hunt this coming Saturday at MFC - More Lord!
Happy hunting!

Even the worst shows can help us celebrate TV's 90 years
A young man with a dream did something remarkable on this date 90 years ago, paving the way for countless hours spent on the sofa laughing, crying and cheering.
On Sept. 7, 1927, inventor Philo T. Farnsworth showed off his image dissector, the first all-electronic television system. Happy anniversary, TV!
We will skip the nerdtastic ins and outs of how exactly this was different from other techie TV efforts and just say it was a pretty big deal. And he accomplished this at the age of 21.
Fast-forward nearly a century and Farnsworth's handiwork has been cause for praise and a lot of insults.
Let's not blame the messenger. It's not Farnsworth who was responsible for some really terrible ideas that were OK'd as shows. That's like blaming Julia Child for all the unsubtle, deep-fry-the-kitchen-sink-too offerings at state fairs across the land.
Instead, we thank you, Mr. Farnsworth, for the miracle that is television and for all the joy it has brought.
Except from these shows:

This new marketing campaign Mac is using is pretty clever stuff, and clearly aimed at women. Here we have the new Macs, completely compatible with all our needs...young, hip, attractive, and easy-going. He is the guy you knew in college, had all the tools you needed to get the job done and looked real nice sitting on your desk. Back when I was in college that guy was the PC.
Now look at him. He just doesn't look as cool or hip as he once did. He comes with TONS of baggage. He doesn't perform like he used to. To get him do do a damn thing takes a lot of effort. He needs a lot of time to get going, and you can never be sure if he is going to crash before finishing the task.
Yes, girls, the Mac looks really good. Unfortunately, I already have this big PC hanging around, and I am afraid at my age getting a Mac might seem slightly pathetic.

We live in a nation that now ranks out of 34 countries, 14th in reading, 17th in science and 25th in math. That is far behind the highest scoring countries, including South Korea, Finland and Singapore, Hong Kong and Shanghai in China and Canada.
To make the situation worse we live in a state that has drastically cut public education funding. Not only has the budget been cut but the state also created a voucher system that uses tax payer money for tuition to private parochial schools. Every private school that has been accepted into the new voucher system has ties to a religious organization.
Amount Indiana Has Cut From Public Education
- $311 million cut to K-12 State Tuition Support.
- $1.3 million cut to Non English Speaking Program.
- $546,000 to Gifted/Talented programs.
- $3 million cut to State Student Assistance Commission

Sharing my love of books with other avid readers like myself.

Some Girls Are, by Courtney Summers
Emotional, provocative, intense. Every kid should read this book. I cried nearly the whole way through as I relived my own feelings of being bullied in school. But what I experienced at the hands if the "mean girls" was nothing like the hardships that Summers describes in Some Girls Are. I cringe when I think about my formative years and worry about having to console my own child from similar mistreatment. Kids can be cruel. My mother used to say that. It was meant to comfort, but never really was able to take the sting away. I think every single person can still call up, with vivid accuracy, the intense feelings of humiliation and pain that they experienced at the hands of a bully. There are few other experiences in life that provide such a common denominator between such vastly different people as being bullied does. Summers demonstrates so well what happens when the bully becomes the bullied and how tangled the web of bullying actually is. No one seems to walk away unscathed and there really is no winner, everyone is a victim of sorts. Read this book. Get your kids to read this book. In today's world, a world where kids are bringing guns to school to shoot other kids, where kids are commuting suicide because they cannot escape from the torment of other kids, and where every single kid knows the pain of feeling like they don't fit in, we must take steps to convince this generation of kids to stop the bullying. Summers has done a phenomenal job of portraying what it is like to be a kid facing these circumstances. I cannot think of one negative thing to say about this book other than the fact that it shames us all that this fictional story is being played out daily in schools across the country.

Diana and Mohamed al-Fayed's son Dodi were killed in a high-speed crash in a Paris road tunnel in August 1997 while being chased by paparazzi desperate to capture a shot of the world's most photographed woman.
Just days before she was killed, Diana rang her sister Sarah from the yacht Jonikal while on holiday in the Mediterranean.
When asked by lawyer Ian Burnett if Diana had talked about being bugged, Sarah McCorquodale said "She thought the boat was being bugged by Mr al-Fayed Senior."
Mohamed al-Fayed alleges that Dodi and Diana were killed by British security services on the orders of Prince Philip, Queen Elizabeth's husband and Diana's former father-in-law.
Fayed believes her killing was ordered because the royal family did not want the mother of the future king having a child with his son. He alleges that Diana's body was embalmed to cover up evidence she was expecting a baby.
But McCorquodale said she got the impression that Diana's summer romance with Dodi al-Fayed was on its last legs.
"I just did not think the relationship had much longer to go," she told the court. No mention was ever made of Diana being pregnant or getting engaged to Dodi.
Instead, she thought her sister might have wed heart surgeon Hasnat Khan.
"I believe there was a strong possibility that they might have married," she said.
"I don't think she believed the relationship was ended or she hoped it wasn't," McCorquodale added.
After Diana's death, McCorquodale and her mother Frances Shand Kydd spent several days shredding confidential documents at her Kensington Palace home in London.
"Nothing historical was ever shredded," according to McCorquodale who said she never saw any letters from Prince Philip to Diana.
She said she agreed with her mother to destroy anything that might in future distress Diana's sons, Princess William and Harry.

Spending a beautiful summer day helping daddy fix things
is right up this 3 year old's alley.
Nothing makes a little boy feel better than being just like dad and helping him.
Especially when your tools are brightly colored and made of plastic!
He spent the next few days beaming with pride as I commented on all the projects he "helped" dad do. It was sure fun to see him so proud and so excited to be just like dad.

The last day in Melbourne was an action packed day. After breakfast at the hotel Miami, we boarded the bus and John drove us to the Victoria Market - again! A frantic 2 hours was spent looking for the final souvenirs and presents for families at home.
Next we headed to the Melbourne Museum. The museum kept every body interested browsing the different displays ranging from creatures under the sea, the mysteries of the insect world and the development of the earth's surface to the mysteries of the human body and the history of Melbourne. The allocated time rapidly disappeared.
On the bus again, we headed back to Southbank where John managed to find a bus park right at the from of the Eureka building. After a quick lunch we went to the Eureka Skydeck where the lift took us skyward at an amazing 88 floors in 36 seconds. All of our Malaysian guests decided to conquer "The Edge" so enjoyed the view whilst waiting their turn in the glass bottomed cubicle.
Back on the ground, we once again boarded the bus for the DFO at South Wharf f0r MORE shopping.
