Shoes, Shoes, Shoes!
I have recently developed a big love for shoes. I love them because they can be the focal point of an outfit, or they can simply be a subtle addition to an entire look that you are trying to achieve. Here are some of my favorite shoes that I have been lusting over lately!
1. Poetic Licence 'Spring Blooms' Pump in Basil Green These slingback pumps instantly transport me to the 1950's. I love the vintage inspired design and the fun colors! These shoes are perfect for spring and summer and can be dressed up or down quite easily. The pink heel is the perfect amount of sass for a date night, but the girlie leaves would look great paired with a flowy skirt for a picnic in the park!
2. Dolce Vita 'Osorno' Sandal in Gold
This sandal is the perfect staple for a summer closet. Most people don't realize how easily gold goes with a variety of different colors and looks. I wear gold shoes with just about anything. These sandals are a nice mix between the "gladiator" trend and the t-strap style. Dolce Vita is one of my favorite shoe brands because they make some truly beautiful shoes.
3. Franco Sarto Artist Collection 'Atlas' Sandal in Torrone
Nude heels and shoes in general are very in style at the moment. The great thing about nude shoes is that if you pair them with a skirt or a dress, they elongate your legs by making your foot camouflage in with your legs. This is something that every woman can use, so make the nude heel your new best friend. These Franco Sarto heels are especially fun because they have a cute little zipper up the back of the foot. Its the little things, people!
4. Report 'Kimball' Flat in Black/White Stripe
This little number is super great for summer. Flats are a tricky business for summer because some can leave your feet too hot and sweaty (leather). These are fabric, plus there is a peep toe, which means no nasty foot perspiration for you. Okay, enough about foot sweat, these shoes are also just really cute and I adore the fringe.
5. Farylrobin 'Owen' Wedge in Multi
How fun are these sandals? The architectural heel and the bright color blocking makes these shoes a statement piece. I love wedges because they are so much easier for me to walk in than heels, especially if I am going to be wearing them for a night out or for more than 3 hours. These wedges are really breathtaking.
6. Sam Edelman 'Hudson' Sandal
Yep. You are seeing a zebra print gladiator sandal. I have seen these in person, and let me tell you, they are pretty fabulous. There is actual synthetic zebra hair, and they zip up the back. These would look great paired with a more basic outfit, such as denim cut off shorts and a baggy t-shirt. There are so many cool aspects to these sandals that you want to avoid clutter with a flashy outfit as well.
All of these shoes a different and unique. Play with different styles. If you are not as flashy, go with the basics but throw in one pair of flashy shoes every once in awhile. It will help you to branch out of your normal style.
4 Responses to "Shoes, Shoes, Shoes!"
I love the Report 'Kimball' Flats!
I love the Report 'Kimball' too! So cute. Also can't help my love for the zebra flat.
It is way cute. Imagine with some cute pink or red toenails peeking through!

And now….. the moment you've all been waiting for….. the big announcement that has been lurking on the sidelines for weeks….is to be revealed right this very minute…
Ready for this? In exactly 91 days, the posse, Daisy and myself are moving to Austin, Texas to become cattle ranchers.
The first part of that statement is true, the second half…not so much.
We are moving to beautiful, amazing, lively, spectacular Austin – not to work with the bovine species, but to embark on a new and exciting chapter of our lives. And quite frankly, it feels incredible to say it out loud, over and over again.
Although Vegas has been home for 12 years, it's time to move on, time to experience more in life than casinos, malls full of drunken tourists, and the neon lights of the strip.
Plus, Daisy needs a cowgirl hat:
We are ready. More than ready. My to-do list is three pages long, my moving checklist is printed and ready, and I've spent the last few weeks on a crazy deep clean of the house, paring down and weeding out scores of items that have filled my car several times over of "stuff"….. things that have passed their prime in my world. It almost seems overwhelming, yet, it isn't. I feel empowered with my decisions, as I have so much to gain and absolutely nothing to lose.
So be prepared for the updates and commentary over the next three months, as we have lots of exciting things happening before our move.
And one final thought for today:
"An adventure might hurt you, but monotony will kill you"…

SASKATOON, SASKATCHEWAN--(Marketwire - Oct. 30, 2007) –
Attention Business Editors:
A competitive tax and efficient regulatory environment are key to helping businesses throughout Saskatchewan and the rest of Canada compete in today's global economy and to ensure the long-term prosperity of all. That is the message that Nancy Hughes Anthony, president and chief executive officer of the Canadian Bankers Association (CBA), delivered this morning in a speech to the Greater Saskatoon Chamber of Commerce.
Ms. Hughes Anthony said that Saskatchewan and Canada, in order to compete, must ensure that their corporate taxation rates are competitive, and preferably lower, than other jurisdictions since a competitive tax regime can be a key factor in encouraging investment.
"All levels of government in Canada need to participate and contribute to achieving the goal of a competitive tax policy," said Ms. Hughes Anthony. "Progress has been made on the reduction of corporate income tax in Saskatchewan, but more needs to happen, particularly on the capital tax on financial institutions."
Removing the capital tax on financial institutions would create a level playing field for all businesses in the province since, starting next year, capital taxes will be eliminated for all businesses except for financial institutions. It would also put Saskatchewan in a good position to compete for investment with its neighbour, Alberta, which eliminated capital taxes entirely in 2001.
"Capital taxes are known to deter investment and Saskatchewan needs more investment to create careers for our young graduates here at home," said Kent Smith-Windsor, Executive Director of the Greater Saskatoon Chamber of Commerce. "Eliminating capital taxes on financial institutions is an important step in our quest to build the best business climate in Canada, thereby creating a city of opportunity," he added.
The CBA is recommending that the scheduled reductions in the federal corporate income tax rate should be accelerated and then reduced even further to 16.5 per cent by 2012. Relief in personal income tax, particularly in the lowest income tax bracket, will also help attract and retain a viable labour force.
Ms. Hughes Anthony also highlighted the need to address the impending skilled labour shortage, an issue of concern in Saskatchewan and across Canada: "There are too many internal barriers within Canada that limit labour mobility and the establishment of free trade among the provinces and territories is long overdue. We were pleased to see the federal government emphasize this in the Speech from the Throne."
The Canadian Bankers Association works on behalf of 54 domestic chartered banks, foreign bank subsidiaries and foreign bank branches operating in Canada and their 249,000 employees to advocate for efficient and effective public policies governing banks and to promote an understanding of the banking industry and its importance to Canadians and the Canadian economy.

Residential buildings such as independent homes, villas, condominiums and apartments have become more aesthetic over the years, compared to those of a few decades ago. However, as architects experiment with different materials for the façade, walls, masonry and finish, modern-day homes are becoming more complex, architecturally.
Today, a single building may sport a variety of materials: agglomerates; clay bricks; concrete blocks, slabs and tiles; Mexican tiles; glass or mosaic tiles; granite; marble; sandstone or limestone surfaces; metal tiles; ceramic tiles; grouting and mortar – all of them in the interiors or exteriors, to achieve the desired look and finish.
As interior and exterior surfaces become more complex, so does their cleaning. Home exteriors are vulnerable to sunshine, snow, rain and wind which cause the growth of moss, fungus or mildew. Further, veneer surfaces are made of chemical compounds which degrade with time and leech on to the exteriors, causing ugly stains.
Risks of DIY (Do-it-yourself) cleaning
Of late, do-it-yourself cleaning enthusiasts are in the habit of stocking up on a wide variety of chemical reagents, and purchasing cleaning equipment available in the market, to clean their homes. While this may look like a nice thing, in reality, it can be very harmful to the safety and aesthetics of your home, as well as the health of your family members and of your own. To name two major risks:
- such equipment uses high pressure, hot water, and special techniques to achieve the desired cleaning; not following the instructions can damage the surface being cleaned, or cause injuries to you and your family;
- some of these chemical reagents do not come with any certification or a detailed product label that lists out the ingredients; as a result, you could be exposing yourself or your family members to highly toxic chemicals which can cause allergies, irritation, headaches, stomach cramps, etc; prolonged exposure can even cause endocrine disruption, cancer and a compromised immune system.
Why a cleaning partner is a better option
In contrast, cleaning companies which are established in the business have the right skills, knowledge and expertise to undertake a thorough cleaning of the exterior or interior surfaces your home in a cost-effective manner. The following are the obvious advantages:
- Specialists: 'Cleaning Solutions & Technology' is a science in itself. A cleaning solutions company stays abreast of latest developments in the field, the benefit of which is passed on to customers.
- Trained and certified staff: Some of the top cleaning companies have in-house training departments where technicians are trained on correct cleaning techniques, including the right pressure or heat ratings to be used in the equipment. This reduces the risk of damage to your home or injury to you and your family.
- Top-quality equipment: Cleaning companies invest in technically-advanced equipment available in the market, with some of them designing their own indigenous equipment too. This ensures a very effective cleaning of your home, eliminating the need for a repeat or repair exercise.
- Research and Development: Some of the top-notch commercial cleaning companies in the US maintain their own R&D labs where the cleaning processes used for different surfaces are tweaked or enhanced from time to time. This reduces the time taken to clean your home and gives you the best value for money.
- Sustainable and Energy-efficient: Like other industries of the world, the cleaning business is also sensitive to the use of more eco-friendly technologies and processes. These help reduce the carbon footprint and minimize the use of toxic chemicals which leach into the air or ground water.
As is evident, cleaning the exteriors of your home can be a complex task, which is best left to cleaning companies who are specialists in the business. These companies can clean your home in the shortest, most cost-effective and efficient ways, which reduces the hassle and makes the maintenance of your home seem like a breeze.

More that a few European officials are beginning to point a finger at Russia for alleged covert operations designed to stop fracking procedures from going forward as it presents a threat to their domination of certain energy markets.
Gazprom, a state-controlled energy giant, has a clear interest in preventing countries dependent on Russian natural gas from developing their own alternative supplies of energy, they say, preserving a lucrative market for itself — and a potent foreign policy tool for the Kremlin.
"Everything that has gone wrong is from Gazprom," Mr. Mircia said.
They're being accused of working with NGOs and environmentalist groups. While this particular ciricism seems confined to Europe, given the global nature of big business today, attempts or operations to manipulate domestic markets working with similar groups could become a concern, as well.
Before stepping down in September as NATO's secretary general, Anders Fogh Rasmussen gave voice to this alarm with remarks in London that pointed a finger at Russia and infuriated environmentalists.
"Russia, as part of their sophisticated information and disinformation operations, engaged actively with so-called nongovernmental organizations — environmental organizations working against shale gas — to maintain dependence on imported Russian gas," Mr. Rasmussen said. He presented no proof and said the judgment was based on what NATO allies had reported.
Feeding what environmental groups denounce as a frenzy of paranoia have been Russian actions in Ukraine. Russia's president, the former K.G.B. officer Vladimir V. Putin, has deployed a powerful arsenal there dominated by stealth and subterfuge, first to annex Crimea in March and, more recently, to foment an armed separatist rebellion in the east.

Little Beauty Secrets
Since my 12 years, my skin looks really bad. I suffered from skin problems a long long time. These years hurt me so bad because people actually judge you if you have spots or not. This is so sad to say but...it's like this...The people made me feel so ugly and uncomfortable with myself. And it still goes on today. This kind of experiences marks you for the life.
Then, my skin got better and better after doing a cure at 16 and by using the BABOR products. I found out that, in fact, I had that much spots because my skin was really sensitive. I was always using products against acne but there were making it even worse because they were way too agressive.
Then I discovered, like I already said, the BABOR products. My mother was using them for years and she has almost the same skin as me. I took the HY-Oil, the Phytoactive Sensitive Care, the Basic Day Cream for sensitive skin and few weeks ago my mother bought that really nice serum: The Basic Care Moisture Serum. That thing is really doing miracles. I put it on my face in the morning, after having washed my face and before putting on the basic cream. The feeling of my skin is so...nice and soft. This is a feeling that I never had with my horrible spots. I really recommend the BABOR prdoucts. You can actually only buy them in Germany but they also deliver to your home.
I hope that I helped maybe some of you guys...

DEMAREST, N.J. — Students at Northern Valley Regional High Schools in Demarest and Old Tappan will soon be taking college-level courses such as economics, entrepreneurship, trigonometry and constitutional law in school.
It's all part of Northern Valley School District's (NVSD) new "Career Pathways" program, in which students can begin to explore their potential majors and earn college credit while still in high school.
"We want to help kids discover their areas of interest before they get to college and give them the advantages that students in the highest achieving schools have," NVSD Schools Supt. Geoffrey Gordon told Daily Voice.
Making it possible was a $11.7 million referendum approved by district voters earlier this month.
Of the 2,300 NVSD high school students, nearly 75 percent have opted to enroll in college classes, Gordon added.
To make the program work, the district has entered into partnerships with New Jersey Institute of Technology, Bergen County Community College and Seton Hall University to certify half of each high school's teachers as adjuncts, qualified to teach 150 different college-level courses to students, Gordon explained.
Freshmen through seniors can opt to dual enroll in different career pathways — including Business, Law & Government, Fine, Practical, & Performing Arts, Human Services, and S.T.E.M. — at a cost of $75 per credit. Most full-year classes are worth three credits. Students can take up to 60 credits while in school.
"Kids can take these college-level courses for less than ten cents on the dollar and that will really help families," Gordon said.

A generation-skipping trust is a legal agreement in which the assets of the grantor are held in trust and transferred to the grantor's grandchildren, as opposed to the children. This type of trust is used primarily for estate planning and tax purposes.Continue Reading
The advantage of a generation-skipping trust lies in its tax avoidance result. When a grantor transfers assets to her children, the transaction is usually subject to estate taxes. By transferring the assets of the trust to the grandchildren, the grantor's children never take ownership of the assets, and the estate tax does not apply. Although the children of the grantor do not directly receive the trust assets, there are still ways to set the trust up to provide financial benefits to the children.Learn more about Financial Planning

Warm days and a weeklong chance of thunderstorms may keep gardeners inside while the thunder and lightning are booming. When the storm clouds clear, however, it's time to consider ways to feed the growing garden.
Plants need nourishment, and while in the flowering and fruiting stage, they may need a boost. Gardeners have a multitude of choices, depending on the type of plant and its needs. While waiting out the storm, consider setting up a fertilizing schedule according to the preferred type of fertilizer.
- Commercially produced slow-release fertilizers are one option. The long-lasting products slowly release nitrogen (N), phosphorus (P) and potassium (K) into the soil over the growing season. These products may also incorporate macronutrients and micronutrients. An all-purpose 10-10-10 fertilizer may feed plants for two months or more.
- Organic gardeners may rake the mulch back and add a couple of shovels of well-decomposed compost around garden plants, then rake the mulch over the compost to help conserve water. Compost continues to lighten the soil while adding a variety of beneficial microorganisms and nutrients to the ground.
- Compost tea is also an option; add a cup or two to each plant every week while watering. Make compost tea by filling a five-gallon bucket half full of compost. Add water to within three to four inches of the bucket's rim. Add either bubblers attached to an aquarium pump or stir the mixture several times daily. Some gardeners swear by additional ingredients such as alfalfa, kelp, molasses and rock powders to encourage extra micro-bacterial growth and add nutrients. Apply the compost tea to the garden in two to five days. Use caution when brewing compost tea; curious children and pets can drown in a bucket of water. Keep the bucket in a childproof fenced or locked area.
- Weed the garden after a rain, while the soil is soft. Though mulch discourages weed growth, some persistent perennial weeds may push up through it, and their seeds may germinate in the top layer. Remove weeds before they become established to keep the garden healthy.
- Monitor the garden for pests, such as the little caterpillars or larvae that dangle below oak trees. Spray the oak trees and foliage under the trees with Bt (Bacillus thuringensis) products. Avoid the butterfly garden, however, as Bt will also kill butterfly caterpillars.

UPDATE: Condor Gold shares advance on major upgrade to resources
Condor Gold (LON:CNR) shares advanced over 10 per cent this morning as it revealed a major upgrade to the gold resources at the La India project in Nicaragua.
Today's share price rise marks a 400 per cent gain since the start of the summer, up from around 50p in July to be poised just below 200p a share today.
La India's mineral resource, estimated to CIM (Canadian Institute of Mining, Metallurgy and Petroleum) standards, rises to 2.375 million ounces at 4.6 grams per tonne, representing a 46 per cent rise on the previous estimate while exceeding the company's year-end target of 2 million tonnes.
A prospective open pit contains 954,000 ounces of the precious metal at 3.6 grams per tonne, while the underground resource has a further 1.418 ounces at 5.5 grams.
Condor has also compiled a maiden silver resource of 2.28 million ounces at 6.5 grams per tonne.
"Unequivocally this is a major achievement for Condor," Ocean Equities analyst Chris Welch said in a note.
"The company has met and exceeded its target of a 2Moz resource base, it has increased the indicated portion of the resource to a substantial 0.8Moz and it has been able to delineate a substantial resource of 0.9Moz that is amenable to open pit mining.
"The company deserves credit for meeting targets in a timely fashion, a rare trait in a junior mining company."
Even after the recent share price strength Welch says that Condor is undervalued.
He points out that it currently it has an enterprise value per ounce of just $37, which he says is 'a very low multiple that does not reflect the overall grade of the deposit'.
"Considering just the open pit component, the multiple would still just be $98/oz, which again is undervalued in our opinion for a high grade open pit project so close to infrastructure."
While enthusiastic about Condor's 'major success' so far in this part of Nicaragua, Welch says this is just the beginning for the company.
He says the company's formula for success so far can be easily replicated across the rest of the La India gold district, which the company now controls following recent acquisitions.
"Condor has been able to take complete control of a gold district that has already shown it to be very responsive to the appropriate drilling in the right places combined with broader exploration techniques from trenching.
Focussing on the existing project Welch said he expects Condor the upcoming technical report and preliminary economic assessment (PEA), to be a positive development given the enlarged resource and the findings of earlier metallurgical tests.
"Our focus will be on the open pit resource economics and the size of the mill that the project could potentially support. As we envisage it, the mill will mostly be fed with open pit resource tonnes and supplemented with higher grade ores from the underground mines.
"There is the potential for Condor to employ excess profits from this starter mine to explore and develop other resources within the La India gold district. We await the technical study to assess this potential."
In this morning's statement, Condor chief Mark Child said: "The La India Project has considerable potential to continue the expansion of the size of the gold mineral resource.
"It continues to develop into three main areas, separated by one kilometre to one-and-a-half kilometres that could feed a centralised processing facility."

TEANECK, N.J. — Teaneck Councilman Jason Castle will moderate "Black, White and Blue," a Tuesday night forum addressing challenges faced by minorities and police in relating to each other.
The 7 p.m. event will take place at the Richard Rodda Community Center .
"The way to move forward is to have open and constructive dialogue that engages all facets of our communities," said Castle, referencing deadly neighborhood conflicts that have happened nationwide.
It's a conversation particularly important in culturally diverse towns such as Teaneck, he added.
The special guest panel includes:
Ass. Gordon Johnson (D-Dist. 27);
Teaneck Police Chief Robert Carney;
Mark Denbeaux, director of the Center for Policy and Research at Seton Hall Law School;
Rachel Godsil, co-founder and director of research for The Perception Institute; and
Anthony Cureton, president of Bergen County NAACP.
In announcing the forum, Castle alluded to the 1990 death of African American teenager Phillip Pannell, who was shot and killed while fleeing police by Officer Gary Spath, who was later charged with manslaughter and acquitted.
"Over the last 25 years," Castle said, "much has been done to rebuild ties between the police department and the community. But times like these test those ties as people begin to ask if such a tragedy could ever again happen here."
The Richard Rodda Community Center is at 250 Colonial St.

Champions Classic series in Abilene
Updated: August 26, 2008
EVENT: Champions Classic
LOCATION: Shotwell Stadium, Abilene
LINEUP: Duncanville vs. Odessa Permian, August 28; FW Dunbar at Abilene , August 29; FW Wyatt at Abilene Cooper, August 30
ORIGIN: The Abilene Sports Commission started their series in 2006 to create an annual event to elevate the city of Abilene regionally and to take advantage of the improvements that have been made to historic Shotwell Stadium. The location is close to DFW, Midland-Odessa and Lubbock .
ALUMNI: Southlake Carroll
STAR POWER: After being unable to land a TV agreement which would have resulted in additional sponsorship revenue, the ASA had to release Belle ( Fla. ) Glades Central and Riordan ( Calif. ) from verbal commitments to participate in the event, and found capable replacements in Wyatt and Dunbar. Dunbar has a talented WR in Darious White, but lack of depth should make this a difficult challenge against one of the top schools in West Texas . Both schools will return again in 2009. Abilene vs. Glades Central would have been one of the top matchups of the regular season.
TICKETS: Shotwell handles each of the three events just like playoff games, with individual tickets.
PROJECTED ATTENDANCE: 20,000/3 Games.

McCain Suspends Campaign, Calls for Postponing Friday's Debate
Wow. Desperation has truly set in. The McCain campaign is calling off their pathetic campaign in order to go "work on the economy" (which is laughable), and also wants Obama to join him in a call for postponing the debate on Friday. But why cancel a FOREIGN POLICY debate? It's his chance to change the subject. I say let him postpone it. We'll have the economic one first then the foreign policy one later. Works for me. By that time the economy will have fully set in on the electorate and no amount of foreign policy fear and loathing will be enough to put McCain over the top.
Why doesn't John McCain just quit now?
We'll see what team Obama does with this. My guess would be to hint that McCain can't walk and chew crisis at the same time. Not a very good trait for our next President. We're in the shit here. We need calm, reasoned leadership and someone who doesn't panic under fire.
I smell panic.
Or- change the topic of this Friday's debate.
Let them both get up there talking about the Economy. Let's hear what they think we can do to solve this problem.
As Jesse points out, the candidates should be using the "national stage of a presidential debate and the bully pulpit of the campaign trail to push forward a solution."
That, of course, assumes they have solutions.
I think Anthony suggested that as well and it's the right response. I hope team Obama goes for that one.
That's the play right there. Let's debate the economy. Let's talk about what every American is really worried about RIGHT NOW!
He can't walk away from that.
total utter panic.
The Reverend
I agree with Eric's sentiments….however…Republicans "create reality now". What we are seeing this week, especially today, is Republicans creating reality. Doesn't matter whether any of it is based on authentic empirical information.
Americans are being led to believe that unless Paulson and Bush get their $700 billion by Monday….economic Armageddon will come on Tuesday.
I've seen this movie several times in the last 8 years. I'm not buying another ticket.
Both candidates are U.S. Senators.This financial crisis will be decided in the U.S. SENATE. Currently, the brilliant plan is that after this 7 hundred billion dollar bail out … Pelosi and Reed will be in charge of picking who will be in charge of ongoing oversight for continued spending. God help us! This is another example of how Senator John McCain puts country first. All Obama cares about is winning the election at any cost. Obama neglected his duties as U.S. Senator before running for President, and especially after he began running for President. This 'bail out – quick fix" will negatively affect Americans for decades. Many of the bloggers who are criticizing McCain for this decision wouldn't recognize responsibility, or integrity if it bit them on the ass. Keep America strong and safe … Elect McCain/Palin in November.
I agree with comment #1 and think that is what may end up happening here….
@5: Yes. That's it. Country above politics! Fun fact: Of all Senators, John McCain has been the most absent. There have been 643 votes taken in the current Senate session: McCain has missed 412 of them.
Hey Howard- it sounds like you already made up your mind.
But the rest of America needs to see these two men disuss the issues.
In 3 months one of them will be President.
Personally, I'd like it to be the guy who can handle multiple problems at the same time.
Is it really that serious that the debate get postponed by 1 week? Aren't both these guys still U.S.Senators? I for 1 would like them both to high-tail it back to Washington & put their money where their mouths are…If this is as serious as it looks, the debate is very small in the big picture. Why all this attention about the debate? There is no talk of canceling it so WTF? Eric, panic? Are you kidding? Are you new here? Maybe if some of the Dems had been paying attention to what was going on at Freddie & Fannie we might not have a panic now..maybe if Clinton hadn't repealed the depression legislation in '99, we wouldn't be in a panic…McCain quit now? Yeah, they are in a dead heat and he should quit..u scared?
"Why all this attention about the debate? There is no talk of canceling it so WTF?"
Turn on your TV, Tami. Or your radio. Or open a newspaper.
McCain said he isn't showing up for the debate and he wants to cancel the VP debate too.
The McCain campaign is in a tailspin. He and Palin have assumed the crash position.
I have my TV on…I think you are watching on a different planet…tailspin? Maybe I should wait a minute and one of you will start saying this economic situation was caused by McCain so he could "cancel" the debate. I think your problem might be the TV you are watching. The mainstream would love nothing more than to "create" a story that McCain wants to cancel when all along the word used has been "postpone". Look in the dictionary, each word has a different meaning. Maybe you should try reading instead of watching TV. A new Pew Research survey found Obama leading McCain among registered voters, 46 percent to 44 percent….hmmm, not really a tailspin and doesn't call for the "crash" position….While you were watching TV, or listening to the radio, or reading the newspaper, do you recall every seeing something about 3 debates? I guess the sky would fall if the debate on Friday didn't take place. I am not surprised at all the liberal whining about this, however, if you aren't too busy whining about whether 1 0f 3 debates will take place when it was scheduled, whine about this…Wall Street suffered massive losses last week, and credit markets froze following the bankruptcy of Lehman Brothers Holdings and the massive government bailout of insurer American International Group. Truth is, both parties share blame for Wall Street's turmoil. Republican faith in deregulation and unfettered markets led it to ignore inevitable excesses. Democrats pushed for expanded homeownership, even if it meant loaning money to people who couldn't pay it back. Both ignored loud warnings that they were acting irresponsibly. Let me ask you Joseph, why was your response to me only about the debate? Maybe you don't care about the financial crisis? I think the answer is you would rather whine about an non-issue (the debate) than dig in and have both sides put out this economic fire. If you have to make your choice on a candidate based on a televised debate then you might want to re-think your strategy.
John McCain is not an expert on the economy. Hell, he admitted that himself.
But I don't think the American people expect him to be an economic expert. They just expect their president to be a good leader.
And part of being a good leader is knowing when to get involved and, more often than not, when NOT to get involved.
Having John McCain inject himself into the debate in Congress isn't going to help improve the solution or help it move along any faster. As a matter of fact, it may very well end up slowing things down by injecting more politics into the discussion.
John McCain's decision to postpone the debate and suspend his campaign has absolutely nothing to do with solving the economic crisis and everything to do with trying to deflect attention away from his recent misstatements about the economy and the fact that Sarah Palin can't answer basic questions.
It's purely political. 100%.
40 days from an election EVERYTHING is political.
"40 days from an election EVERYTHING is political."
So, so true!

Types of Hair Loss
Hair loss can come in lots of different forms and affects all different types of people. It affects both men and women as well as people of all ages, including children. It is not just a problem for older adult males, although it is most commonly associated with that age group. If you are experiencing hair loss the first step is trying to determine the root of the cause. Some hair loss is completely natural. If your hair loss is not natural it can sometimes be difficult to ascertain what is causing it because there are so many factors that can contribute to it.
The different types of hair loss also vary a great deal. Some types are permanent while some are temporary. Sometimes hair loss is scarring and sometimes non-scarring. Scarring hair loss causes your scalp to become inflamed and is usually the result of autoimmune condition or autoimmune reactions – your body is actually attacking your own hair or scalp. Non-scarring hair loss is characterized by shrinking hair follicles. With the latter, the hair can grow back once the problem is corrected.
Sometimes hair loss can be caused my skin conditions or medical conditions like hormonal or other endocrine imbalances. Medications you may be taking can also have side effects that include hair loss. Medical professionals can help to determine the exact cause of your hair loss and help you take steps to remedy it. Quick treatment is important for any types of scarring hair loss because the follicles become damaged and your hair will not grow back. With children, hair loss is less common, but there are many, many possible causes.
Androgenic Alopecia
Androgenic alopecia is more commonly referred to as male pattern or female pattern baldness. It is the most common cause of hair loss seen in older adults, both male and female. It is more common in males. It is dictated by genetics, which generally means that if either of your parents experienced it, there is a good likelihood that you will as well. The onset varies, but it usually begins to emerge gradually as you get older.
Hair Loss In Men
In men, hair loss is one of the expected signs of aging. Hair thinning and then loss go hand-in-hand with gradually developing wrinkles and other indicators of age. It is not uncommon at all, especially in men. That natural hair loss is not caused by wearing hats, stress nor your diet, but instead the body's natural aging process. The hair itself goes through a process, changing from mature hair into what is known as vellus hair or peach fuzz. Hair loss is usually gradual when it occurs naturally. Androgenic alopecia is natural.
Hair Loss In Women
Androgenic alopecia in women is a bit different than in men and is reacted to differently. In our society it is not viewed as part of the natural aging process, although it actually is for many women. Unlike in men it usually presents more as thinning hair than vellus hair and then baldness. There are a lot of myths associated with female pattern hair loss – mainly that it is caused by stress or illness.
There are also causes of hair loss that are less natural and that women are more likely to experience. Excessive used of hair dyes and other hair treatments that over-process the hair can lead to hair loss. Women are more likely to engage in these activities than men and it can be very damaging to the scalp and hair over time. Certain hairstyles like tight pony tails can also cause hair loss.
Hair Loss In Children
Hair loss is much less common in children than in older adults. In children it also usually indicates an illness or other condition and there are an array of causes. The most common cause is something known as alopecia areata. Ringworm on the scalp can also cause hair loss as well as malnutrition caused by anemia, overgrowth of the oil glands on the scalp, congenital disorders and even emotional distress. Compulsively twisting or tugging on the hair can result in it falling out as well. If your child is experiencing hair loss it is important to consult a medical professional.

Oakland, Berkeley, And East Bay News, Events, Restaurants, Music, & Arts
In recent weeks, monologist Mike Daiseyhas enjoyed an ubiquitous presence in the blogosphere, partly because he's a hot new conceiver of one-man-shows, but mostly because his latest is a trenchant critique of ailing Apple CEO Steve Jobs. It opened this week at Berkeley Rep, in conjunction with The Last Cargo Cult, Daisey's monologue about witnessing the John Frum Daycelebration in Tanna. He uses John Frum -- a religious practice that spawned the Tannese "cargo cult" of the play's title -- as a point of departure for challenging western materialism. The idea behind John Frum is to disavow consumer culture and return to a more ascetic lifestyle (called kastom),, which, Daisey argues, might be salutary for Americans, too. Daisey had the brilliant idea of re-creating the ceremony by handing out money as patrons walk in the door. His story, delivered extemporaneously and in a characteristically pungent tone, is riveting. Better yet is the set design by Seth Reiser, who frames Daisey with a mountain of cardboard packages, advertising everything from Zappos to MacPro. Through February 27 at Berkeley Repertory Theatre (2025 Addison St., Berkeley). $17-$71. BerkeleyRep.org.

I uploaded the new patch. * The "advantages" and "disadvantages" in the comparison w/ H(S)FTP could be formatted more clearly in a list or table. --> yes. I listed them. * 6.6.1 and 6.6.2 are missing a line break before the "ant clean tar" shell command --> good catch. I corrected a couple more. * There are several occurrences of "Ip address" (e.g. 4.2.2 sub 3) that should read "IP address" --> changed * Why are dfs.block.size and io.file.buffer.size important parameters for the proxy? --> They are not crucial to the functionality of proxy. Fine tuning these parameters could affect the transfer performance to some degree. This should have been documented in hdfs-client. * -There are three "hdfsproxy-default.xml" tables and all tables are labeled "Table 1"- (the structure is much clearer in the HTML rendering than in the PDF; looks like a forrest quirk) --> seems <caption> tag inside <table> block is causing the problem. Replaced it with <strong> out of the <table> block. Now all look the same in HTML and PDF. * Has someone unfamiliar with the details of the project successfully configured an instance of HDFS proxy from this documentation? --> I did that.

text: HopOn, an Israeli startup seeking to streamline payment for transit options from buses to rental bikes, announced a major milestone Tuesday Rav-Kav (multi-ride ticket) smart card users will now be able to charge their electronic ticket through the app. In the first stage of the rollout, Android users with NFC-equipped phones will be able to use the app to load credits from their credit cards with a simple click. RELATED ARTICLES Public transport fares to Tel Aviv to be slashed "Smartup2 gave us exposure" HopOn a Tel Aviv bike using a smartphone The options presented to users are varied and include pay-as-you-go credit (valid for use in most areas), a set number of rides, and monthly passes for the Tel Aviv Metropolitan Area. As such, the prices and ticket options are personalized for the user's profile whether senior citizen, child, student, etc. to assure the proper discounts are applied. HopOn was launched a year and a half ago, mainly on the Dan bus service while operating pilot programs with other transport companies. David Mezuman, one of the co-founders, said "the new development will save a lot of time for public transport passengers by shortening the payment line that bogs down entry to buses. We see this development as a stepping stone to the support of full mobile payment and ticketing, without the need for smart cards and the expensive hardware that operates them." Dan chairman Shmuel Rafaeli said the company was "proud to launch this remote-charging app which will lead to a significant improvement in service quality for public transport passengers� As in the past, Dan continues to lead the technological evolution of ticketing, data, and alternative energy in the Israeli public transportation sector." HopOn was founded by Ofer Sinai and David Mezuman; it has raised $700,000 from private investors and is in the midst of another round of funding.

Existing Planning Permission Is No Sure Winner
Horsham District Council's Planning Committee granted Planning Consent for 44 units on this former equestrian centre plus existing property on a 3.2 acre site in Southwater, about 1 mile from the village centre. Section 106 negotiations took some 6 months to engross. Local residents' objections, dormice, surface water and foul drainage, plus Social Housing at 30% to this development presented hurdles, which were eventually crossed.
Construction is now underway at 'Martindale Place' by Barratt Southern Counties. & Lettings
"Ever increasing legislation causes delay, even when a site is within the settlement. Hurdles such as ecology, archaeology, and the emerging Localism Bill need to be addressed and overcome. Robust planning applications are essential, as well as appealing to local residents to clear the final fence."

Do you remember that song Show and Tell? Well I sometimes get into some deep thought and reflection and it always leads to some pretty profound opinions. Of coarse it all depends on which side of the table you sit, but today I am going to share my opinion, and you can take away from it what you will or you can simply say, ah who cares. Choices, Aren't they wonderful.
First thought. Have you ever noticed that when you ask a photographer what it is they do, they simply tell you, I am a photographer? Then as you continue to speak to said photographer you will hear all about how passionate they are about photography. I even see this in people's Bios on some pretty shitty websites. Now my site may not be great but it communicates, and that is the goal. However to get to my point, I just about have come to a point in which I would like to slap the back of people's heads every time I hear "I am a passionate photographer" . Now this is simply a personal take but I get it. Yeah you enjoy photography, but stating you are passionate about it? This trend started about 10 years ago and marketing experts suggested to anyone who would listen, you have to define yourself and state what your passion is. So without really putting thought into this, many photographers just simply went with this suggestion, and you see it all over the internet. I am sorry, but this is such a load of hogwash. Once again my opinion, but I have also been more of a visual guy vs. the spoken word. Yes, it is action that speaks louder that words, and let me go on record here. Stating you are a passionate photographer and then producing images that suck is not a very good indicator of passion or a skill set. I also see all this let me help you create a profit from your passion. Trust me, the only ones that profit in that industry is the ones who are trying to sell you an ideology of how to operate a photography business. There are practices, but the thought that saturated markets can be stood out in is possible, but in the end, running a successful business as a photographer is going to come down to two things. 1. The quality of your work. 2. Your personality. On a local platform I have a friend in this business and the talent is incredible. We share a common interest and it is nice to know that backs are covered. However both of us have had to deal with the passionate photographer and let me define that passion. Ok the work is standard at best, but the practice and the personality is what I just flushed. Look you cant bully people into accepting your services. Stating that this person sucks or this person is a jerk is a bad look. On top of that, attacks on social pages is just a low blow, and it kind of defines who the hell you really are. I have had to deal with that, and believe me, I am not one to take crap from a person that I would consider to be a me too type of person. Then of coarse we have the friends and family. Oh that guy just retorted, so lets leave crappy reviews and hurt this persons business. You know what? I am so over that. That is our standard everyday Passionate Photographer. SLAP RIGHT ON THE BACK OF THE HEAD!
Look sometimes you nail the shoot and sometimes you produce nice images. Once in a while you blow it. I know one thing, this art is a journey and every time you press the shutter, you need to learn something. Photography is truly an exploration of light, and what excites me is the next adventure.
So with my opinion in place here and knowing this is like two minutes of your life that you will never get back, if you read it, I wanna show you how I define passion.
This is the super moon of 2016. I read all the hype and news stories leading up to the event, but over the years I have been displeased with super moons of the past. However I read one story that stated we would not see a moon this big again for several years. I was hooked. When the moon came up, it was like a 50/50 shot. Lots of clouds and as I stood out there with hope freezing my ass off, The moon peaked, over the horizon. As I watched the whole thing fell apart as the clouds just swallowed the view. Trust me, some real colorful metaphors came into play. However the event wasn't just isolated to the evening hours. I knew I may get a second change in the early am. Up early and out the door, I did what came natural to me. Set up watch, wait do my research and at one moment, I set off the exposure. One shot.
SUPERMOON2016Two World Wonders Meet
After post process, it hit me. I said to myself, " Mike you big dummy, you just shoot the meeting of two wonders of the world." Niagara Falls, New York, just meet the Super moon of 2016. Once again and in closing, we can all say how passionate we are about something, but saying it, and showing it are two different things. I prefer to be passionate about my wife and children and see photography for what it is. Moments captured forever in the ultimate exploration of light.
Shutter bang. THAT'S A WRAP.
Please leave your thoughts and comments on this post. I do read them, and like to hear the various opinions on the topics I write about.
Oh for the record, I know I am a jerk, that comment is stating only the obvious.

The Gulls (32-14-2-2; 68 pts.) open a home-and-home series with the San Jose Barracuda (33-12-1-4; 71 pts.) tonight at SAP Center (5:00 p.m. PT, 1090-AM) in a matchup between two of the AHL's hottest teams. The Gulls enter tonight with four consecutive victories, wins in 14 of their last 16 contests (14-2-0) and 21 of the last 25 overall (21-3-0-1). Over the last 22 games San Diego has earned standings points in 20 of those contests (19-2-0-1) where the club has outscored opponents 79-36, and earned points in 24 of 27 contests since Christmas (21-3-1-2). San Jose enters tonight with a 14-1-1 record their last 16 games and a recent 14-game win streak and 15-game point streak.
The Gulls have won eight of the past nine road games (8-1-0) and earned standings points in 13 of the last 14 road contests (12-1-0-1) dating back to Dec. 29. The Gulls lead the Western Conference with a .667 road win percentage (15-7-1-1), and rank second in the AHL behind Providence. The Gulls also have the third-best win percentage (.680) in the Western Conference and fourth-best in the AHL, while the club has allowed the second-fewest goals in the league (127). San Diego finished the month of February with a 10-2 record, outscoring opponents 43-23, setting a club record for the most wins in a calendar month (previous: eight, set three times; Jan. 2017, Mar. 2016, Feb. 2016).
San Diego's remaining 18 contests this season will come against Pacific Division opponents where the Gulls have posted a 26-13-1-2 record in the division. Tonight's matchup represents the seventh contest between San Diego and San Jose, where each club has maintained home ice advantage in winning its three home contests to date. San Jose has earned a 3-0-0 record vs. the Gulls this season at SAP Center, outscoring San Diego 8-1 but the Gulls are 11-5-1-1 all-time vs. the Barracuda, including a 5-4-0 record at SAP Center. San Jose won the most recent matchup Feb. 8, 2-1, at SAP Center in addition to 3-0 shutout wins by Barracuda goaltender Troy Grosenick in December. The Gulls have defeated San Jose in all three meetings at home this season (3-0-0) and outscored the Barracuda 12-3 in the process. Shea Theodore paces active Gulls skaters with 1-10=11 points in 11 career games vs. San Jose, while Antoine Laganiere leads the club in goals (4-3=7) in 16 contests.
The Gulls are coming off their fourth consecutive victory after a 4-1 win over the Tucson Roadrunners at Valley View Casino Center on Friday night. Twelve different San Diego skaters recorded a point and Kevin Boyle made 35 saves to improve to 7-1-2 his last 10 starts with a 1.98 goals-against average (GAA), .931 save percentage (SV%) and one shutout. Keaton Thompson opened the scoring with a power-play goal and Nick Sorensen extended the lead in the first period with his eighth goal of the season. Brian Cooper added his second goal of the campaign in the second period goal and Corey Tropp sealed the win with a breakaway goal in the third.
Corey Tropp leads the Gulls points (43), co-leads in assists (28), and ranks tied for second on the club in goals (14) and PPG (7), while the right wing has tallied 7-10=17 points over his last 14 games and earned 22 points in the last 21 games overall (9-13=22). Rookie center Kalle Kossila ranks second on San Diego and sixth among AHL rookies with 11-28=39 points, and he ranks third among league newcomers in assists (28). He also co-leads the Gulls in assists and ranks second in plus/minute with his +22 rating leading AHL rookies and ranking fifth among AHL leaders. The rookie center has recorded 5-13=18 points his last 20 games and 6-18=24 points his last 24 games. Defenseman Jaycob Megna leads the AHL with a +29 rating this season, and has already set career highs in goals (5), assists (19) and points (24), surpassing last year's previous career high of 12 points. In the month of February, Megna recorded 3-6=9 points with a +14 rating in 12 games and has earned a +10 rating his past four contests.
San Jose enters tonight with the highest win percentage in the AHL while having allowed the fewest goals in the league (124). Last night the Barracuda were defeated by the Stockton Heat, 4-2, which ended their franchise-best 15-game points streak. The bay-area club also had just won 14 consecutive games from Jan. 25-Feb 25, the most consecutive wins in the AHL since Grand Rapids won 15 consecutive from Nov. 18-Dec. 26, 2015.
Rookie center Daniel O'Regan leads the Barracuda with 45 points this season (16G/29A) in 47 games and leads all AHL rookies in points and assists. Defenseman Tim Heed has earned 44 points to date (11G/34A) which ranks third among all league blueliners this season but his 1.13 points-per game is tops among league defensemen. In goal, rookie Troy Grosenick (21-8-3) has been steady between the pipes leading the AHL in shutouts, ranking second in GAA (2.21) and SV% (.932), and fourth in wins.

Cossie Hearl "Earl" Adkins
I must admit I am VERY new to genealogy tracing. I know out there I have a very large family. Although, through the years, deaths and loss of contact we are not all that close. What little knowledge I do have...comes on behalf of my grandmother. She raised me from the age of 3 after my mother passed away.
My grandmother was that of:
BEULAH V. LARGE, daughter of Edward Large and Eliza Adkins.
b. March 16, 1916 d. February 28, 1998 and buried March 1, 1998 in GreenWood Cemetary.
m. COSSIE HEARL "EARL" ADKINS
b. August 14, 1914
d. August 1975
Her siblings to my knowledge were:
* Mary Large
* Irene Stallard m. Webster Stallard. (Irene passed away when I was very young. Her husband in his late years remarried but, unable to recall his wife's name. He has since passed.)
* Rufus Large m. Leafie (unable to recall her maiden name.) They lived in VA for many years. Then retired to ? Raliegh NC. I know they have a daughter by the name of Yvonne. Both visited often to my grandmother's home in Church Hill, TN. She moved there after my grandfather passed in 1975. Rufus has since passed and not sure about Leafie.
* Ervin Large
* Raymond Large
* Maxie Dotson m. Ervin Dotson. They lived in Abingdon, VA. I remember visiting many times as a child to their home. I believe both have since passed.
My grandfather COSSIE HEARL "EARL" ADKINS has become interesting to try and trace. It has been discovered that at some point he changed his given middle name from Hearl to Earl. In what year -or- for what reason is unknown. Also, we have always been mistaken for the name ATKINS. And many would always make this mistake in text. I think this must be one reason for such mix ups. He worked for the railroad in the areas of Wise, Coeburn and Norton from marriage till death. He loved to build and work with wood. He made many cedar chests, grandfather clocks etc...
I know he has a brother named H.E. "Junior" Adkins still living in Coeburn VA. His wife's name is Edna. I still know where they live and in hopes of contacting them soon.
If anyone would care to share any info - I would greatly appreciate it. I would kindly repay the favor anyway I can. All I have at the moment are names in my head, memories and stories my grandmother would tell me.
Sorry this was so long...
May God and His Angels
Lead, Guide and Protect You.....

Welcome to Year 5, my name is Mr Bottomley and I have been teaching for 12 years. Last year was great and I really enjoyed working with my class. I was even more thrilled when Miss Bowers said that I will be working with them again, this year. I enjoy all sports and plan to use my enthusiasm to help further develop the sport at school. I am also the subject leader for Computing. At home I love spending time with my little girls. Taylor has just started school, so it will be me going to parent's evening this year. Katie is 2 and her personality is growing on a daily basis.
PE will be taking place every Friday, so please make sure that your PE kit is in school. These sessions will be taken by a PE coach. We will be also keeping active by taking part in the Daily Mile as well as our walking to school scheme. I wonder how many badges you can achieve this year.
Our topics this year are World War 2, The Ancient Greeks and The Mayans. In Science we will be looking at Space, Life Cycles and Forces to name just a few. I have set the children a challenge on Mathletics so make sure that we keep earning those Gold Bars.

On Marriage
On Marriage
Love and marriage are the two subjects that forever fascinated great writers. Of all the worldly affairs that we humankind are a part of, marriage has always held the position of a sacred writ given to us directly by the divine eternal. A literature enthusiast is sure to stumble upon an enormous array of literary creations on marriage from the world of literature and poetry among which a poem written by Lebanese-American poet Khalil Gibran could be considered as one with an everlasting philosophical beauty to it. Here is the poem "On Marriage" by Khalil Gibran.
You were born together, and together you shall be forevermore. You shall be together when the white wings of death scatter your days. Ay, you shall be together even in the silent memory of God. But let there be spaces in your togetherness, And let the winds of the heavens dance between you.
Love one another, but make not a bond of love: Let it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls. Fill each other's cup but drink not from one cup. Give one another of your bread but eat not from the same loaf Sing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone, Even as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.
Give your hearts, but not into each other's keeping. For only the hand of Life can contain your hearts. And stand together yet not too near together: For the pillars of the temple stand apart, And the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other's shadow.

I know what I want to be for Halloween. I'm going to go as Perfect Mom. It's the best costume, and the only day of the year I can dress up as somebody I've always wanted to be. Surely Party City carries this costume …
Party City doesn't carry Perfect Mom. Which is weird because it's got all the costumes that make up Perfect Mom – Wonder Woman, Mrs. Incredible, Sassy Maid, Fortune Teller, Shakedown Sheriff, Dazzling Ringmaster, Renaissance Maiden and Divine Goddess.
Oh well, the homemade costumes are the best anyway. I'm gonna start with a pantsuit. Pantsuits say working mom AND stay-at-home mom (when you take off the jacket and heels). It also covers PTA meetings, teacher conferences, a committee meeting at the church and a Moms@Work luncheon. It's pretty versatile.
Paired with an Aerosole wedge, I can walk, run and climb over fences to get the soccer ball. I don't need a belt, but I think Perfect Mom wears one in case she has to lasso a pet, administer a tourniquet, or pull a child out of a well.
My sensible, sturdy purse will have everything Perfect Mom needs in a day. Which is a credit card, quarters, hand sanitizer, Motrin and a smartphone with contact numbers for anyone I would ever need to call in this life. And their email address. And their birthdays. Perfect Mom always knows everybody's birthday.
Add to that a first aid kit, goldfish crackers, a juice box and a list of answers to every question. The sharpened pencil we can never find at homework time. The school calendar, the practice schedules and a pickle jar, to show that I can open anything. And all my children's hopes and dreams so that I can produce them at a moments notice.
My hair I'm gonna cut, color and coif. And I'll need to tape my eyebrows up a bit, so I have that happy-surprised-excited look. All the time. Probably need to pluck them first. Little Vaseline on the teeth to give them that shine and a little sparkle. On second thought, I'll probably need to go easy on that eyebrow tape, because I'll need to wink, Perfect Mom always winks.
I'll get a manicure, pedicure and a trainer so I'll look good. I'll eat salmon, kale and blueberries so I'll feel good. And then in one hand I'll have a birthday cake I baked from scratch. And in the other, a framed portrait of my family. That I needlepointed.
Then I'll walk the neighborhood singing the soundtrack from "Frozen." While all the other moms beg me to tell them how I crafted that pinata made out of leftover candy last year. And how I do it all, have it all, and look so good doing it.
I don't know, maybe I'll just get the Wonder Woman costume. It's just one piece. And then I can wear the cool boots.

text: Enveloped by a clear blue sky and a lush gracious setting, Joanna Kemper opened her home and garden to us for our annual summer Garden Party. It was an afternoon of friendship, shared commitment and welcome. Once again we had a record turnout for this popular event. The setting was perfect, with a lovely crystal blue pool surrounded by fabulous gardens maintained by master gardener Joanna. Hope Nisson and her Events committee made sure we did not go hungry or thirsty. We had lots of time to mingle and meet prospective members, connect with current members we had not yet met, and catch up with old friends. Thanks and summer-hats off to everyone who shared their enthusiasm for our mission of supporting the nonprofits of our Sonoma Valley community. May Impact100 Sonoma thrive and our numbers continue to grow!

In the run-up to the next election there is a high chance we may end up with a hung parliament, yet this is a subject that nobody has wanted to talk about – until now. A group of influential figures has set up Charter 2010 and wants a website created as a platform to stimulate debate and urge people to contact their parliamentary candidates to ask them how they would handle such an outcome.

The Church was built by the blood of martyrs and the persecuted. Today, the assault on Christianity is rampant. The number of martyrs is growing exponentially and there are many who say this is the greatest age of Christian martyrs. The persecution of Christians around the world is an overwhelming heartbreak and dire situation. I would love to sit down with ISIS and convince them to ransom the captives of their reign of terror, however that is not realistic. Because of all this, I have postponed writing this post, what could I do? What can I tell my readers to do? Then I saw an article asking for prayer for Pastor Saeed Abedini, and knew God wanted me to write this very imperfect post.
Seek out information on those held captive. Captive doesn't always mean locked behind bars. There are those who are held captive by fear by terrorists, or neglect by apathetic care givers. Read updates on sites like The Voice of the Martyrs and International Christian Concern. Become active in pro-life activities and organizations to bring a voice to those imprisoned without voices--the elderly, unborn, and disabled. Information is power, and knowing the truth gives wings to those who cannot speak for themselves, educate yourself and share what you have learned. This is how strength in numbers grows, and spotlights are shined in the darkest corners.
Sign petitions to set captives free and raise awareness. If you need a place to start, go to Change.org human rights page and see what you can do to set a captive free.
Visit Free Pastor Saeed and read the story of an American citizen, jailed in Iran while building orphanages for three years for his Christian faith. He is an American, and is still held captive, and he is not the only one! Learn his story and share it, because if this poor man can be jailed for years, any of us can. Do not let his story be forgotten, his wife and children need him home.
Support organizations on the ground ministering to people held captive by poverty, fear, and persecution. Samaritan's Purse, Mary's Meals, and Operation Christmas Child take your gifts and bring them right to those most in need. When choosing a charity, choose carefully. Find one that puts its effort into serving, not all charities are created equal.
Lastly, PRAY. Pray for the conversion of our enemies and the release of all captives. This Saturday, September 26, 2015 marks three years of imprisonment for Pastor Saeed. His wife and young daughters have asked for a day for prayer for his release. Please pray at noon that this American husband, father, and Christian maybe set free, along with the countless prisoners of conscience around the world. Pray for the persecuted that they may be ransomed and protected.
It is not that Pastor Saeed is more important than any other prisoner, it is that his story is the story of far too many prisoners, many that we will never know their names. Please rally and pray on his behalf and for all the Pastor Saeeds that feel forgotten. Thank you.
Linking up with Jenna.

This celebrated seaside resort has been attracting tourists since 1854. Today, some thirty seven million visitors choose Atlantic City each year for its entertainment, history, outdoor fun and special events. The salt air, ocean waves, and endless amusements on the world-famous boardwalk don't just lure tourists. Area residents consider themselves incredibly fortunate to live where others come to vacation. Just imagine: with a career at Tropicana Atlantic City, you could be one of those lucky locals.
From the Atlantic City Airshow: Thunder Over the Boardwalk to the spectacle of the Miss America pageant, Atlantic City does events like no other city in America. The city's casino showrooms draw the biggest names in entertainment, and spectators line the boardwalk for the annual Atlantic City's St. Patrick's Day Parade. Boat shows, beach concerts, boxing matches and seafood festivals mean you're always in the center of the action and excitement.
All year long, the arts are celebrated in Atlantic City with art galleries, museums, theaters and cultural events. Browse indoor fine art galleries such as the Atlantic City Art Center or venture outside to one of Atlantic City's popular art parks that showcase works from local and world-renowned artists. The Greater Atlantic City region is home to the Bay Symphony Orchestra, the Atlantic City Ballet, the Downbeach Film Festival and live jazz concerts. Dante Hall Theatre of the Arts is a beautifully-restored performance space offering professional, amateur and children's theater.
Atlantic City has a long and fascinating history, from the original Lenni-Lenape Indians, to the bootleggers of the 1920s, to the passing of the passage of the Casino Gambling Referendum in 1976. New residents will enjoy brushing up on their area history at the Atlantic City Historical Museum. Or take a fun and informative trolley tour!
Do you enjoy some retail therapy now and then? Atlantic City doesn't disappoint. As a local, you have all kinds of options, including outlet shopping at Tanger Outlets – The Walk, which spans three city blocks and offers more than 100 brand and designer name stores and restaurants. The boardwalk is home to dozens of unique souvenir stores, specialty shops and tasty confections from fresh fudge to our world-famous salt water taffy. Of course, you'll find some of the city's very best shopping at The Quarter inside Tropicana, with more than 25 exciting stores under one roof.
Atlantic City beaches are famous, and rightly so. Clean, wide open and completely free, our beaches are the perfect place to soak up some sun, take a relaxing stroll, surf, fish, parasail or embark on a scenic cruise. In season, beach bars offer cold drinks, hot food and great live music.
The greater Atlantic City area is home to nineteen world-class golf courses, which means players can take a swing at everything from picturesque vineyard courses to unique bayside links. Take your game to Atlantic City and get your daily dose of iron.
Paintball, go-karts, amusement piers, arcade games, miniature golf and an aquarium are just the beginning of the excitement awaiting families who move to the Atlantic City area. Enjoy a morning bike ride on the boardwalk. Climb all 228 steps of New Jersey's tallest lighthouse. Take to the ice at the Flyers Skate Zone. Snap a photo with Lucy the Elephant, the city's beloved pachyderm-shaped landmark that stands six feet tall. Or treat your family to the ultimate movie experience at the IMAX theater at Tropicana.
