Clarke worked for the State Department during the presidency of Ronald Reagan.[2] In 1992, President George H.W. Bush appointed him to chair the Counter-terrorism Security Group and to a seat on the United States National Security Council. President Bill Clinton retained Clarke and in 1998 promoted him to be the National Coordinator for Security, Infrastructure Protection, and Counter-terrorism, the chief counter-terrorism adviser on the National Security Council. Under President George W. Bush, Clarke initially continued in the same position, but the position was no longer given cabinet-level access. He later became the Special Advisor to the President on cybersecurity. Clarke left the Bush administration in 2003.
Clarke came to widespread public attention for his role as counter-terrorism czar in the Clinton and Bush administrations in March 2004, when he appeared on the 60 Minutes television news magazine, released his memoir about his service in government, Against All Enemies, and testified before the 9/11 Commission. In all three instances, Clarke was sharply critical of the Bush administration's attitude toward counter-terrorism before the 9/11 terrorist attacks, and of the decision to go to war with Iraq.
Richard Clarke was born in 1950, the son of a Boston chocolate factory worker and a nurse.[3] He studied at the Boston Latin School (graduated in 1968), received a Bachelor's degree from the University of Pennsylvania in 1972 where he was selected to serve in the Sphinx Senior Society.[4] After working for the Department of Defense as an analyst on European security issues, Clarke earned a master's degree in management in 1978 from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology.[5]
Government careerEdit
In 1973, he began work in the federal government as a management intern[6] in the U.S. Department of Defense. Beginning in 1985, Clarke served in the Reagan administration as Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Intelligence. During the Presidential administration of George H.W. Bush, as the Assistant Secretary of State for Political-Military Affairs, he coordinated diplomatic efforts to support the 1990–1991 Gulf War and the subsequent security arrangements. During the Clinton administration, Clarke became the counter-terrorism coordinator for the National Security Council. He remained counter-terrorism coordinator during the first year of the George W. Bush administration, and later was the Special Advisor to the President on cybersecurity and cyberterrorism. He resigned from the Bush administration in 2003.
Clarke's positions inside the government have included:
- United States National Security Council, 1992–2003
- Special Advisor, 2001–2003
- National Coordinator for Security, Infrastructure Protection, and Counter-terrorism, 1998–2001
- Chairman of the Counter-terrorism Security Group, 1992–2003
- United States Department of State 1985–1992
- Assistant Secretary of State for Politico-Military Affairs, 1989–1992
- Deputy Assistant Secretary of State for Intelligence, 1985–1988
Clinton administrationEdit
Clarke advised Madeleine Albright during the Genocide in Rwanda, to request the UN to withdraw all UN troops from Rwanda. She refused, but permitted General Dallaire to keep a few hundred troops who managed to save thousands from the genocide. Later Clarke told Samantha Power, "It wasn't in American's national interest. [7] If we had to do the same thing today and I was advising the President, I would advise the same thing." He directed the authoring of PDD-25[7] which outlined a reduced military and economic role for the United States in Rwanda as well as future peacekeeping operations.
Islamists took control in Sudan in a 1989 coup d'état, and the United States adopted a policy of disengagement with the authoritarian regime throughout the 1990s. After the September 11, 2001, terrorist attacks, however, some critics charged that the US should have moderated its policy toward Sudan earlier, since the influence of Islamists there waned in the second half of the 1990s, and Sudanese officials began to indicate an interest in accommodating US concerns with respect to 9/11 mastermind Osama bin Laden, who had been living in Sudan until he was expelled in May 1996. Timothy M. Carney, US ambassador to Sudan between September 1995 and November 1997, co-authored an op-ed in 2002 claiming that in 1997 Sudan offered to turn over its intelligence on bin Laden but that Susan Rice, as NSC Africa specialist, together with the then NSC terrorism specialist Richard A. Clarke, successfully lobbied for continuing to bar U.S. officials, including the CIA and FBI, from engaging with the Khartoum government.[8] Similar allegations (that Susan Rice joined others in missing an opportunity to cooperate with Sudan on counterterrorism) were made by Vanity Fair contributing editor David Rose[9] and Richard Miniter, author of Losing Bin Laden.[10]
Clarke was also involved in investigating Ramzi Yousef, one of the main perpetrators of the 1993 World Trade Center bombing who traveled to the United States on an Iraqi passport. Yousef is the nephew of Khalid Sheikh Mohammed, a senior al-Qaeda member. Many in the Clinton administration and the intelligence community believed this was evidence linking al-Qaeda's activities and the government of Iraq.[11]
In February 1999, Clarke wrote the Deputy National Security Advisor that one reliable source reported Iraqi officials had met with Bin Laden and may have offered him asylum. Therefore, Clarke advised against surveillance flights to track bin Laden in Afghanistan: Anticipating an attack, "old wily Usama will likely boogie to Baghdad," where he would be impossible to find.[12] Clarke also made statements that year to the press linking "Iraqi nerve gas experts" and al-Qaeda to an alleged joint-chemical-weapons-development effort at the Al Shifa pharmaceutical plant in Sudan.[13]
Michael Scheuer is the former chief of the bin Laden Unit at the Counterterrorist Center at the CIA. Matthew Continetti wrote: "Scheuer believes that Clarke's risk aversion and politicking negatively impacted the hunt for bin Laden prior to September 11, 2001. Scheuer stated that his unit, codename 'Alec,' had provided information that could have led to the capture and or killing of Osama bin Laden on ten different occasions during the Clinton administration, only to have his recommendations for action turned down by senior intelligence officials, including Clarke."[14]
Operation Orient ExpressEdit
In 1996, Clarke entered into a secret pact with Madeleine Albright, Michael Sheehan, and James Rubin to overthrow U.N. Secretary-General Boutros Boutros-Ghali, who was running unopposed for a second term in the 1996 selection. They dubbed the pact "Operation Orient Express" to reflect their hope "that many nations would join us in doing in the UN head." However, every other member of the Security Council voted for Boutros-Ghali. Despite a firestorm of criticism, Clarke and Sheehan prevailed upon Clinton to resist international pressure and continue the solo veto.[15] After four deadlocked meetings of the Security Council, Boutros-Ghali suspended his candidacy and became the only U.N. Secretary-General ever to be denied a second term by a veto.
The United States then fought a four-round veto duel with France, forcing it to back down and accept the selection of US-educated Kofi Annan to be the next Secretary-General. President Clinton was very impressed and told Clarke and Sheehan, "Get me a crow, I should eat a crow, because I said you would never pull it off." In his memoirs, Clarke said that "the entire operation had strengthened Albright's hand in the competition to be Secretary of State in the second Clinton administration."[15](p201)
Bush administrationEdit
Clarke and his communications with the Bush administration regarding bin Laden and associated terrorist plots targeting the United States were mentioned frequently in Condoleezza Rice's public interview by the 9/11 investigatory commission on April 8, 2004. Of particular significance was a memo[16] from January 25, 2001, that Clarke had authored and sent to Condoleezza Rice. Along with making an urgent request for a meeting of the National Security Council's Principals Committee to discuss the growing al-Qaeda threat in the greater Middle East, the memo also suggests strategies for combating al-Qaeda that might be adopted by the new Bush administration.[17]
In his memoir, Against All Enemies, Clarke wrote that Condoleezza Rice made a decision that the position of National Coordinator for Counterterrorism should be downgraded. By demoting the office, the Administration sent a signal through the national security bureaucracy about the salience they assigned to terrorism. No longer would Clarke's memos go to the President; instead they had to pass through a chain of command of National Security Advisor Condoleezza Rice and her deputy Stephen Hadley, who bounced every one of them back.
Within a week of the inauguration, I wrote to Rice and Hadley asking 'urgently' for a Principals, or Cabinet-level, meeting to review the imminent Al-Qaeda threat. Rice told me that the Principals Committee, which had been the first venue for terrorism policy discussions in the Clinton administration, would not address the issue until it had been 'framed' by the Deputies.[15]
The National Commission On Terrorist Attacks Upon The United States reported in its Eighth public hearing:
Clarke asked on several occasions for early principals meetings on these issues and was frustrated that no early meeting was scheduled. No Principals Committee meetings on al Qaeda were held until September 4th, 2001.[18]
At the first Deputies Committee meeting on terrorism held in April 2001, Clarke strongly suggested that the U.S. put pressure on both the Taliban and Al-Qaeda by arming the Northern Alliance and other groups in Afghanistan. Simultaneously, that they target bin Laden and his leadership by reinitiating flights of the MQ-1 Predators. To which Deputy Secretary of Defense Paul Wolfowitz responded, "Well, I just don't understand why we are beginning by talking about this one man bin Laden." Clarke replied that he was talking about bin Laden and his network because it posed "an immediate and serious threat to the United States." According to Clarke, Wolfowitz turned to him and said, "You give bin Laden too much credit. He could not do all these things like the 1993 attack on New York, not without a state sponsor. Just because FBI and CIA have failed to find the linkages does not mean they don't exist."[15]
Clarke wrote in Against All Enemies that in the summer of 2001, the intelligence community was convinced of an imminent attack by al Qaeda, but could not get the attention of the highest levels of the Bush administration, most famously writing that Director of the Central Intelligence Agency George Tenet was running around with his "hair on fire".[15]
At a July 5, 2001, White House gathering of the FAA, the Coast Guard, the FBI, Secret Service and INS, Clarke stated that "something really spectacular is going to happen here, and it's going to happen soon."[19]
Cyberterrorism and cybersecurityEdit
Clarke, as Special Advisor to the President on Cybersecurity, spent his last year in the Bush administration focusing on cybersecurity and the threat of terrorism against the critical infrastructure of the United States. At a security conference in 2002, after citing statistics that indicate that less than 0.0025 percent of corporate revenue on average is spent on information-technology security, Clarke was famously heard to say, "If you spend more on coffee than on IT security, then you will be hacked. What's more, you deserve to be hacked."[20]
In June 2012 Clarke discussed issues of cybersecurity in depth in an interview on The Colbert Report in which he was seemingly misled into thinking that they were discussing cyber-security threats from the Chinese through the use of mobile devices such as iPads. Instead, Stephen Colbert was doing a humorous piece on the threats of orangutans learning to use iPads. Indeed, when confronted on the issue directly, Clarke himself clarified that he was not discussing non-human primate based cyberterrorism threats. "Orangutans? You mean like apes?" said Clarke, "Are you sh**tin' me? I'm talking about the Chinese."[21]
9/11 CommissionEdit
On March 24, 2004, Clarke testified at the public 9/11 Commission hearings.[22] At the outset of his testimony Clarke offered an apology to the families of 9/11 victims and an acknowledgment that the government had failed: "I also welcome the hearings because it is finally a forum where I can apologize to the loved ones of the victims of 9/11...To the loved ones of the victims of 9/11, to them who are here in this room, to those who are watching on television, your government failed you. Those entrusted with protecting you failed you. And I failed you. We tried hard, but that doesn't matter because we failed. And for that failure, I would ask, once all the facts are out, for your understanding and for your forgiveness."[22]
Many of the events Clarke recounted during the hearings were also published in his memoir. Clarke charged that before and during the 9/11 crisis, many in the Administration were distracted from efforts against Osama bin Laden's Al-Qaeda organization by a pre-occupation with Iraq and Saddam Hussein. Clarke had written that on September 12, 2001, President Bush pulled him and a couple of aides aside and "testily" asked him to try to find evidence that Saddam was connected to the terrorist attacks. In response he wrote a report stating there was no evidence of Iraqi involvement and got it signed by all relevant agencies, including the Federal Bureau of Investigation and the CIA. The paper was quickly returned by a deputy with a note saying "Please update and resubmit."[15] After initially denying that such a meeting between the President and Clarke took place, the White House later reversed its denial when others present backed Clarke's version of the events.[23][24]
Supporting Clarke's claim that in the months leading up to 9/11 what should have been considered an alarming amount of intelligence forewarning of attacks was delivered to the president, Former Deputy Attorney General Jamie Gorelick, the sole member of the 9/11 Commission permitted (under an agreement with the Bush administration) to read the President's Daily Brief, reported in the hearings that information in the documents "would set your hair on fire"; though barred by secrecy rules from disclosing much of the details contained in the documents, she reported that they contained "an extraordinary spike" in intelligence warnings of al-Qaida attacks that had "plateaued at a spike level for months" before 9/11.[25][26]

Before and after Clarke appeared before the 9/11 Commission, some critics tried to attack his credibility, launching a full-scale offensive against him: impugning his personal motives, claiming he was a disappointed job-hunter, that he sought publicity, and that he was a political partisan. They charged that he exaggerated perceived failures in the Bush administration's counterterrorism policies while exculpating the former Clinton administration from its perceived shortcomings.[27]
According to some reports, the White House tried to discredit Clarke in a move described as "shooting the messenger."[28] The New York Times economics columnist Paul Krugman was more blunt, calling the attacks on Clarke "a campaign of character assassination."[29]
Some Republicans inside and outside the Bush administration questioned both Clarke's testimony and his tenure during the hearings. Senate Republican Majority Leader Bill Frist took to the Senate floor to make a speech alleging Clarke told "two entirely different stories under oath", pointing to congressional hearing testimony Clarke gave in 2002 and his 9/11 Commission testimony. Frist later speculated to reporters Clarke was trading on his former service as a government insider with access to the nation's most valuable intelligence to sell a book.[30]
Clarke was criticized for his suggestions in 1999 of intelligence indicating a link between Saddam Hussein and al-Qaeda, despite the fact Clarke and others concluded after investigations by 2001 that no link had been established. In Against All Enemies he writes, "It is certainly possible that Iraqi agents dangled the possibility of asylum in Iraq before bin Laden at some point when everyone knew that the U.S. was pressuring the Taliban to arrest him. If that dangle happened, bin Laden's accepting asylum clearly did not," (p. 270). In an interview on March 21, 2004, Clarke claimed that "there's absolutely no evidence that Iraq was supporting al-Qaeda, ever."[31] Clarke claimed in his book that this conclusion was understood by the intelligence community at the time of 9/11 and the ensuing months, but top Bush administration officials were pre-occupied with finding a link between Iraq and 9/11 in the months that followed the attack, and thus, Clarke argued, the Iraq war distracted attention and resources from the war in Afghanistan and hunt for Osama bin Laden.
Fox News, allegedly with the Administration's consent, identified and released a background briefing that Clarke gave in August 2002, at the Administration's request, to minimize the fallout from a Time magazine story about the President's failure to take certain actions before 9/11.[32] In that briefing on behalf of the White House, Clarke stated "there was no plan on Al-Qaeda that was passed from the Clinton administration to the Bush administration," and that after taking office President Bush decided to "add to the existing Clinton strategy and to increase CIA resources, for example, for covert action, fivefold, to go after Al-Qaeda."[33] At the next day's hearing, 9/11 Commission member James Thompson challenged Clarke with the 2002 account, and Clarke explained: "I was asked to make that case to the press. I was a special assistant to the President, and I made the case I was asked to make... I was asked to highlight the positive aspects of what the Administration had done and to minimize the negative aspects of what the Administration had done. And as a special assistant to the President, one is frequently asked to do that kind of thing. I've done it for several Presidents."[22]
Another point of attack was Clarke's role in allowing members of the bin Laden family to fly to Saudi Arabia on September 20, 2001. According to Clarke's statements to the 9/11 Commission, a request was relayed to Clarke from the Saudi embassy to allow the members of the bin Laden family living in the U.S. to fly home. Clarke testified to the commission that he passed this decision in turn to the FBI via Dale Watson, and that the FBI at length sent its approval of the flight to the Interagency Crisis Management Group.[34] However, FBI spokesman John Iannarelli denied that the FBI had a role in approving the flight: "I can say unequivocally that the FBI had no role in facilitating these flights."[35]
Clarke has also exchanged criticism with Michael Scheuer, former chief of the Bin Laden Issue Station at the CIA. When asked to respond to Clarke's claim that Scheuer was "a hothead, a middle manager who really didn't go to any of the cabinet meetings," Scheuer returned the criticism as follows: "I certainly agree with the fact that I didn't go to the cabinet meetings. But I'm certainly also aware that I'm much better informed than Mr. Clarke ever was about the nature of the intelligence that was available against Osama bin Laden and which was consistently denigrated by himself and Mr. Tenet."[36]
On March 28, 2004, at the height of the controversy during the 9/11 Commission Hearings, Clarke went on NBC's Sunday morning news show, Meet the Press and was interviewed by journalist Tim Russert. In responding to and rebutting the criticism, Clarke challenged the Bush administration to declassify the whole record, including closed testimony by Bush administration officials before the Commission.[37]
As of August 2017, Clarke had been obtaining large amounts of funds, notably $20 million for the Middle East Institute via the Emirates Center for Strategic Studies and Research (ECSSR), an Abu Dhabi-based think tank. The Middle East Institute had been propagating Emirati agendas in Washington and was mentioned in mail leaks of Yousef Al Otaiba, Emirati ambassador to US. The Intercept reported that Saif Mohamed Al Hajeri, CEO of Tawazun Holding L.L.C., had been sanctioning the money, larger than the annual budget of the Middle East Institute, on orders of Otaiba.[38]
Post government careerEdit
Clarke is currently Chairman of Good Harbor Consulting and Good Harbour International, two strategic planning and corporate risk management firms; an on-air consultant for ABC News, and a contributor to the Good Harbor Report, an online community discussing homeland security, defense, and politics. He is an adjunct lecturer at the Harvard Kennedy School and a faculty affiliate of its Belfer Center for Science and International Affairs.[39] He has also become an author of fiction, publishing his first novel, The Scorpion's Gate, in 2005, and a second, Breakpoint, in 2007.
Clarke wrote an op-ed for the Washington Post on May 31, 2009 harshly critical of other Bush administration officials, entitled "The Trauma of 9/11 Is No Excuse".[40] Clarke wrote that he had little sympathy for his fellow officials who seemed to want to use the excuse of being traumatized, and caught unaware by Al-Qaeda's attacks on the USA, because their being caught unaware was due to their ignoring clear reports a major attack on U.S. soil was imminent. Clarke particularly singled out former Vice President Dick Cheney and former Secretary of State, Condoleezza Rice.
In April 2010 Clarke released his book on Cyber War. In April 2012, Clarke wrote a New York Times op-ed addressing cyber attacks. In stemming cyber attacks carried out by foreign governments and foreign hackers, particularly from China, Clarke opined that the U.S. government should be authorized to "create a major program to grab stolen data leaving the country" in a fashion similar to how the U.S. Department of Homeland Security currently searches for child pornography that crosses America's "virtual borders." Moreover, he suggested that the US president could authorize agencies to scan Internet traffic outside the US and seize sensitive files stolen from within the United States. Clarke then stated that such a policy would not endanger privacy rights through the institution of a privacy advocate, who could stop abuses or any activity that went beyond halting the theft of important files. The op-ed did not offer evidence that finding and blocking files while they are being transmitted is technically feasible.[41]
In September 2012, Clarke stated that Middle Eastern governments were likely behind hacking incidents against several banks.[42] During the same year, he also endorsed Barack Obama's reelection for President of the United States.
Following the 2013 high-speed fatal car crash of journalist Michael Hastings, a vocal critic of the surveillance state and restrictions on the press freedom under the Obama Administration tenure, Clarke was quoted as saying "There is reason to believe that intelligence agencies for major powers—including the United States—know how to remotely seize control of a car. So if there were a cyber attack on the car—and I'm not saying there was, I think whoever did it would probably get away with it."[43]
In 2013, Clarke served on an advisory group for the Obama administration, as it sought to reform NSA spying programs following the revelations of documents released by Edward Snowden.[44] The report mentioned in 'Recommendation 30' on page 37, "...that the National Security Council staff should manage an interagency process to review on a regular basis the activities of the US Government regarding attacks, that exploit a previously unknown vulnerability in a computer application." Clarke told Reuters on 11 April 2014 that the NSA had not known of Heartbleed.[45]
In a 2017 interview Clarke described Russia's recent cyberattack against Ukraine that spread worldwide, the exPetr virus that posed as ransomware. He warned confidently that Russia would be back to interfere with the 2018 and 2020 U.S. elections as the vulnerabilities demonstrated in the 2016 election still exist.[46]
Written worksEdit
On March 22, 2004, Clarke's book, Against All Enemies: Inside America's War on Terror—What Really Happened (ISBN 0-7432-6024-4), was published. The book was critical of past and present Presidential administrations for the way they handled the war on terror both before and after September 11, 2001 but focused much of its criticism on Bush for failing to take sufficient action to protect the country in the elevated-threat period before the September 11, 2001 attacks and for the 2003 invasion of Iraq, which Clarke feels greatly hampered the war on terror, and was a distraction from the real terrorists.

Finished up the Warwitch Sirens this weekend. They were fun and I think I did better with painting the cloth. The armor I need to work on. I don't think I will have I will have all 35 pts painted before the end of the month. I do think I will have the bulk done though.
I ordered a Deathjack and that should arrive on Thursday. I should have that built in time for the final week. That should be fun to send crushing into infantry.
Here are some pics of the Warwitch Sirens.
Lastly, the name for this post is a song title from the group AngelSpit

Bother, up again today. Must locate my motivation and do something with it.
I didn't get up to much today, which won't do anything to help the weight situation, so here's a distressing picture I took yesterday. It seems bollards aren't the only things that have been removed recently.
Until quite recently (I last mentioned it in May last year), there was an only slightly rubbish shark on show:
Odd sight on the Quayside
But now it's gone:
Presumably it was affiliated with the fish and chips place, which also seems to have gone. A shame, as I thought it had a nicely quirky character. The shark, that is. I never got round to trying the fish and chips.

There several benefits of getting services for pest control in Newcastle. In fact, there can only be benefits when you hire professional exterminators, there are no downsides to it. The minute you see traces of pests around the house or in your property, contact a professional exterminating team immediately to resolve the issue. Here are some of the benefits that you could get out of hiring pest controllers.
Health and safety reasons
Rodents are not only unsightly; they are also one of the most dangerous pests inside the house. Your family could inhale their dirty fur and this can result to respiratory issues. Various pests could secretly reside and breed in your sofa, beds, living room and other areas that you and your family frequent. Exposure to pests endangers your entire family, especially in matters related to your health. Red ants and ticks, for instance, can cause itchiness, redness of the skin and rashes. Cockroaches on the other hand, can cause sickness due to germs and microorganisms exposure. Apart from pest control, keep your house clean in order to prevent attracting pests in your area.
Preservation of personal belongings
Another benefit of hiring professionals for pest control in Newcastle is you get to save your personal belongings that may be otherwise get damaged by pests. Pest controllers know of strategies to effectively eliminate pests without damaging your furniture and personal belongings. Termites and silverfish can easily devour and damage your furniture. Some pests may not damage your property but they can make your house look unkempt and ugly.
Peace of mind
You and your family would definitely feel uncomfortable knowing that you have roaches, rodents, millipedes, ants and other pests around the house. Rodents can also bite babies and even adults. Mosquitoes, bedbugs and millipedes can also pose risks to your family's safety. Call a qualified team of pest control in Newcastle to keep your house safe for occupancy. Choose the right pest exterminators in the industry. Consider a service provider that is known and trusted by its customers and one with good testimonials and positive feedback from customers.

Anyway, First off, I want to thank Noitora for the translation suggestions to start off with. (I would have never known what to start off with anyway, so thanks!) I'd like to start a translation team, since I don't have the time with college and all, but any and all help would be appreciated. I won't be checking the forum as much as I'd like to, but I do have other ways of contact. I am currently using 3 messengers, AIM, MSN and Xfire. Those who are interested in forming a team, I'd like them to IM me and let me know why and who they are before I respond. Here are my contact details: AIM: WatcheroftheWind MSN: firstname.lastname@example.com XFire: noitenshi Thanks all! Edit: That's probably not the best title to use, considering it sounds like an introductory title more then anything. My bad. Second Edit: I just realized... Beginner tools! What should I download and use? Third Edit: On second thought, the team can wait. I just need to start and learn the ropes before anything.

Rarely do you find a vessel that has been maintained in pristine condition, updated in equipment, freshwater since new and a stalwart design built to actually leave the dock and sail. This C&C 40-2 is truly turn key and ready for the next hoisting of the sails to waypoint wherever. Purchased in the spring of 2016 for an extended cruise out of the Great Lakes, the current owners made the decision to purchase another vessel for extended blue water cruising benefitting the next owners with new sails, canvas, electronics and mechanical improvements. "Koyukuk" is the nicest one found nationwide.
"The best assurance of structural adequacy in a cruising boat is proven offshore racing capability." George Cuthbertson, C&C Yachts.
These are some of recent upgrades and improvements "Koyukuk" has seen since the spring of 2015. Her previous owner gently used her for day sailing and weekend jaunts. This C&C 40 is a must see if classic, quality and excellent sailing qualities are elements you are looking for. Additional photos will be posted when spring breaks and we are able to get aboard.
All photos were taken April 2017.

Legal Cannabis Market Expects Growth
Nov 23, 2016, 08:45 EST
NEW YORK, November 23, 2016 /PRNewswire/ --
www.Financialbuzz.com - California was one of the four states where cannabis for recreational use has voted in favor, and is now legal. California is the largest market for the legal cannabis industry to tackle, as 12 percent of Americans reside in the state. The impact the western state will have on the industry is still unclear, and analysts are presenting different projections, yet all suggest that growth will be there. Vivien Azer, a cannabis analyst from Cowen Group Inc. indicated in a report that sales of recreational and medical marijuana will reach $50 billion by 2026. Canadian Zeolite Corp. (OTC: CNZCF) (CNZ.V), Zynerba Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: ZYNE), Cara Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: CARA), Insys Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: INSY), GW Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GWPH).
Canada is not far behind the United States when it comes to legalization of cannabis. Canada is moving to potentially legalize cannabis in 2017, as the current Liberal Party government will introduce reforms next spring to legalize cannabis for recreational use not just medical.
Canadian Zeolite Corp. (OTCQB: CNZCF) (TSX-V: CNZ) is an environmentally friendly Green Tech business, with a focus on exploration, development and production of the industrial mineral zeolite. The mineral is a naturally occurring mineral found in volcanic ash, and is beneficial to for several industries thanks to its crystalline structure perforated by microscopic pores that act as natural filters. In the agricultural industry, the properties of zeolite are beneficial for use in odor and moisture control in municipal composting, animal feed supplements, zeoponics for greenhouse growing mediums and high-value outdoor zeolitic fertilizers.
This morning Canadian Zeolite Corp. announced that, "it has reached a Supplier Agreement with Natural Ventures, a Puerto Rico based licensed grower and manufacturer of medical marijuana. Canadian Zeolite will now be working with Natural Ventures to enhance their growing production per square foot with zeolitic fertilizers and substrates.
Natural Ventures is located near San Juan, Puerto Rico and has an indoor growing facility of 100,000 square feet. Currently there are over 60,000 registered medical marijuana patients in Puerto Rico and that number is expected to increase significantly in 2017. Natural Ventures CEO, Edgar Montero stated, "we are very excited to be implementing a natural Zeolitic fertilizer for our 2017 crop. With an expected increase in crop yield, we anticipate being able to fully service the increase in demand for our product in Puerto Rico and the other parts of the Caribbean market as they open."
Canadian Zeolite CEO Ray Paquette stated, "we are extremely pleased to be supplying Natural Ventures of Puerto Rico. Plant nutritional needs vary between different species and zeolites are considered as good substrates for developing slow release fertilizers. Canadian Zeolite's natural zeolite is being developed as a value added and highly efficient soil-less substrate for growing a wide variety of plants including medical marijuana."
The first synthetic cannabidiol formulated as a permeation-enhanced gel developed for refractory Epilepsy, Osteoarthritis and Fragile X Syndrome, was created by Zynerba Pharmaceuticals Inc. (NASDAQ: ZYNE). The ZYN002 is a synthetic cannabidiol formulated as a permeation-enhanced gel for transdermal delivery. These transdermal therapeutics travel through the skin directly into the systemic circulation, dodging first-pass liver metabolism and thus enabling lower dosage levels of active pharmaceutical ingredients and rapid and reliable absorption with increased bioavailability. During its clinical trials, ZYN002 has proved to show no signs of somnolence or fatigue and has a very low incidence of gastrointestinal events.
Cara Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: CARA) focuses on developing and commercializing new chemical entities intended to ease pain and pruritus by targeting kappa opioid receptors. The company uses a proprietary class of product candidates that target the body's nervous system and have confirmed efficacy in patients with moderate-to-severe pain without encouraging many of the unwanted side effects typically associated with currently available pain therapeutics. Cara's most advanced pipeline product, intravenous, or I.V., CR845, has demonstrated significant pain relief and a favorable safety and tolerability profile in three Phase 2 clinical trials in patients with acute postoperative pain. We are also developing I.V. CR845 in uremic pruritus, and as well as an oral version of CR845, or Oral CR845, for acute and chronic pain.
Researchers at Insys Therapeutics Inc. (NASDAQ: INSY) is currently in study, but not open yet for participant recruitment of a cannabidiol oral solution to act as an adjunctive therapy for treatment of subjects with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome. According to the Phase 3 trial, they will enroll participants diagnosed with Lennox-Gastaut Syndrome who are still experiencing at least 4 motor seizures involving the trunk or extremities per week, despite ongoing treatment with up to 3 antiepileptic drugs and who meet inclusion/exclusion criteria. Following a 28-day baseline period, subjects will begin an 84-day treatment period. Participants will be assigned to receive twice daily doses of placebo or cannabidiol oral solution at the highest dose determined to be safe in a previous trial.
GW Pharmaceuticals (NASDAQ: GWPH) main focus is on disorders of the central nervous system with epilepsy. GW Pharmaceuticals has a deep pipeline of cannabinoid product candidates which include compounds in development for epilepsy, glioma and schizophrenia. The company owns Epidiolex®, a liquid formulation of pure plant-derived cannabidiol which is in development for the treatment of a number of rare childhood-onset epilepsy disorders. The company also commercialized its very first plant-derived cannabinoid prescription drug, Sativex®, which is approved for the treatment of spasticity.

Heavy on Road
For HGV fleet owners and the commercial tyre specialists that supply them, an effective truck puncture prevention and tyre life extension system has become essential. No-one can afford to miss a just-in-time delivery: downtime prevents successful operation.
Likewise, bus and coach operators know just how disruptive and expensive it is to have a vehicle stopped with a puncture. Recovery is time-consuming and ruins the whole day's schedule.
OKO RTG tyre sealant for Heavy Goods Vehicles is the solution. It is specially designed to prevent punctures and lengthen the life of faster-moving tyres with the greater heat that builds up inside them. In a matched 5-month test in two identical container tractor/trailer units, the OKO-equipped tyres had 20% less tread wear on average than the non-OKO tyres. The steer tyres had 40% less tread wear.
OKO RTG provides a permanent seal in high-pressure truck and trailer tyres with negligible loss of air pressure. It is a speed-rated puncture protection treatment that can seal multiple punctures as you drive, thus allowing commercial tyres to remain operational for longer. It is water-based and rinses out harmlessly, allowing remoulding to take place.
Easy to apply from its NEW high-capacity, high-pressure, all-alloy 25 litre drum pump, OKO does not adversely affect handling or ride characteristics and by helping to avert slow punctures when running it tends to keep tyres at their correct pressure, thus maximising fuel economy.
Protect your vehicles, your drivers and your passengers: fit OKO RTG. For further details, see the Product Page.
See application chart for your tyre type.

Some Europe tours are more equal than others
Glide through Venetian canals, whizz down the Swiss Alps, peek over the other side of the Berlin Wall and practice your Jungfrau mountain yodel so that France can hear you. Have your own Under The Tuscan Sun moment as you feast, take in the soaring pencil pines and attempt to be a very chic Italian (BYO wide brimmed hat and black sunnies).
At night douse yourself in glitter in Monaco, get cabs so that you don't have to wear flats (oh the shame) and always bet on black. All topped off with as much pizza, gelato, strudel, beer, chocolate, herring and macarons as your poor stomach can handle.

text: Tonal manipulation—adjusting the lightness or darkness of your images—is one of Photoshop's most powerful and far-reaching capabilities, and sometimes it can seem like magic. But really, there's nothing magical about it. Once you understand how tonal manipulation is done—it all comes back to those ubiquitous zeros and ones—it starts to look downright pedestrian. But your increased understanding of how Photoshop works (and more important, your ability to spend more time playing around) should more than make up for any loss of the sense of wonder.

Symptoms of Gallstones – Signs of Gallstone Pain, Attacks
Most cases of gallstones are asymptomatic meaning that there are no symptoms evident to the patient (silent gallstones). As the condition progresses, the signs and symptoms of gallstone disease may become evident, wither just the presence of pain (uncomplicated gallstone disease) or signs and symptoms due to complications like jaundice (complicated gallstone disease)
It is often thought that larger stones will cause more severe symptoms but it is the smaller stones and biliary sludge that are usually responsible for gallstone pain, attacks and the other signs and symptoms.
Gallstone Pain
This is the most common symptom indicating the presence of gallstones (cholelcystoithiais ~ stone in the gallbladder, choledocholithiasis ~ stone in the duct). Gallstone pain is referred to as biliary pain or biliary colic which is a result of obstruction of the bile duct, or less frequently, of the gallbladder itself.
Gallstone pain becomes evident when the stone lodges in the duct, either the gallbladder duct (cystic duct) or the common bile duct. The gallstone(s) may pass out of the duct and the pain may resolve spontaneously. It is complicated by in inflammation of the duct(s) known as cholangitis. Gallstone pain may also be a result of inflammation of the gallbladder (cholecystitis), which is another complication that may occur in conjunction with cholangitis or cholecystitis may occur on its own. Infection, particularly a bacterial infection, may cause or complicate a case of gallstones, cholangitis and cholecystitis.
Other complications associated with gallstones and gallbladder disease may also be a result of gallstone pain. This includes :
- Empyema – collection of pus in the gallbladder
- Hydrops, or mucocele – collection of fluid (water or mucus) causing distension of the gallbladder
Other complications are discussed below and include acute pancreatitis, intestinal obstruction, fistula or perforation.
Most cases of gallstone pain is felt in the epigastrium (upper middle abdomen) and less frequently it my be experienced more laterally in the right upper quadrant (right hypochondrium, right lumbar/flank). Gallstone pain may refer to the tip of the right scapula, back, left upper quadrant (gastric pain) or chest. It is not uncommon for gallstone pain to be mistaken for peptic ulcers, gastritis or myocardial infarction (heart attack).
Gallstone Attack
Gallstone pain comes on suddenly and is very intense. It is described as excruciating and constant and may persist for anywhere between 30 minutes to 2 hours. In some cases, gallstone pain may persist for up to 5 hours. If it is persisting for 6 hours or more then cholecystitis or pancreatitis should be suspected.
Distension of the abdomen may also be noticed with gallstone pain. The gallbladder may be tender but it usually not palpable. A mass in the right upper quadrant (RUQ) mat be due to the omentum (part of the peritoneum) or bowel which becomes inflamed.
Murphy's Signs
This is usually indicative of acute cholecystitis which is commonly due to gallstones. Two fingers (sometimes the entire hand) are used to apply pressure on the right upper quadrant. The patient is asked to breathe in. If this elicits pain leading to the patient to stop breathing in, then this is a positive Murphy's sign. This can only be confirmed if the same technique does not elicit pain or discomfort in the left upper quadrant.
Other Signs and Symptoms of Gallstones
- Jaundice
- Obstructive jaundice is a result of obstruction of the common bile duct or in the cystic duct resulting in stricturing of the hepatic/common bile duct (Mirizzi's syndrome)
- It results in yellowish discoloration of the skin, sclera ("whites" of the eye), mouth and deeper tissues.
- Pale or clay colored stools and dark urine may also be present.
- Pruritis – itching of the skin
- If the gallbladder is palpable and painless and the patient is jaundiced, then pancreatic or gallbladder cancer should be suspected (Courvoisier's law).
- Fever
- The fever is usually low-grade or mild or occasionally high.
- Rigors with fever are not usually present, however, if it does occur along with a abdominal pain, ascending cholangitis should be suspected (Charcot's triad).
- Nausea and vomiting
- Nausea accompanies the pain and is more frequent after eating food, not only fatty foods.
- It should not be confused with indigestion and other gastrointestinal causes of nausea and vomiting. No belching or bloating (sensation of fullness) is present in gallstones in contrast to gastrointestinal causes.
- Symptoms of acute pancreatitis
- Inflammation of the pancreas due to gallstones (gallstone pancreatitis) may occur as a result of the passing gallstone causing swelling of the ampulla of Vater.
- The stone may have already passed into the duodenum yet the symptoms of acute pancreatitis may persist.
- The signs and symptoms of acute pancreatitis may be very similar to a gallstone attack. Sweating, a rapid pulse and pain radiating to the back which is partly relieved by bending forward is typical of acute pancreatitis.
- Symptoms of intestinal obstruction
- Rarely, a large gallbladder stone may erode the gallbladder and enter the intestine where it causes intestinal obstruction.
- This is known as a gallstone ileus.
- It may result in prominent vomiting, constipation and ascites (swollen stomach) along with severe abdominal pain.
- A fistula or perforation of the gallbladder may also arise in complicated gallbladder disease resulting in the signs and symptom associated with these conditions.

Alpine Climbing Tower
(2 to 5 hours)
The Alpine Tower is a 60 foot climbing tower that allows individuals to set and accomplish personal goals. Participants belay each other, which facilitates trust and communication among individuals.
The tower has three legs and multiple hanging obstacles, which makes it perfect for beginners and experienced climbers alike. We teach participants all the skills they need to know to climb and belay.
We call our climbing philosophy "My Summit." Summiting the Alpine Tower does not mean reaching the top, it means picking your goal and accomplishing it. The Tower's first platform is 15 feet high, making the Tower great for our littlest climbers (ages 4-6) and those who are not so keen on heights.
Recommended Length of Program by Group Size
8-10 participants: 1 to 2 hours
10-20 participants: 2-3 hours
20-40 participants: 3-4 hours*
40+ participants: 4 or more hours*
*For large groups, we recommend pairing the Alpine Tower with a Team Challenge Course

Limerick Reviews and Summaries
The Lost Art of Keeping Secrets by Eva Rice
Ahhhh, I have shopped. The urge is sated for now. The monster now returns to hibernating until such time as I have a shopping partner and several uninterrupted hours to get to Bluewater. This means at least six months from now, possibly closer to twelve.
Growing up in America I never dreamed I would make it to a mall less than once a month. In my early teens, it was torture to go less than several times a week. My best friend Liz and I would walk up and down Coronado mall, stopping in Spencer Gifts or Gadzooks long enough to see or be seen. Then we'd pop down to Hot Dog on a Stick to get the world's best lemonade, and then begin the cycle again. It was heaven to my 14-year-old self.
That girl still lives inside me and occasionally likes to be treated to a day at the mall. Bluewater is England's excellent answer to the American mall. Complete with multiplex cinema, three different types of Gap, and both high and low end restaurants, it is a place that can make me very happy. Today my mom and I shopped for shoes (me), frilly white pants (Buffy), a ridiculously frilly party dress (Katie), 25 identical girly, frilly, non-tatty party favours, and nursing bra (me again). We did very well. We hit Every. Single. Shop. that had anything to do with frill, pink, or girls. (Including the Frilly Pink Girly shop aka Majestic Fairies.) We culled and narrowed and pounded marble like you wouldn't believe. We were careful to bring fruit to keep up our spirits. We mocked Krispy Kreme and ate pears and clementines right in front of the shop.
We are tired and shopped out. The credit card is whimpering in the back of my wallet. I think I'll put it in a drawer for a while. I don't shop much, but when I do, it'd better be worth it.

More "cash for peerages" musings
I'm perhaps in danger of becoming a one-trick pony so early in my blogging career, but here's some more random thoughts on this sorry affair.
1. Jack Dromey, the Labour Party treasurer, claims to have been unaware of the loans. How on earth can the party's treasurer, who is responsible for signing the party's accounts, have had no idea of the source and application of his party's funds? To me, it seems that he has just publicly confessed his own complete incompetence.
2. The BBC reports that secret loans are to be banned. I'm not sure that we want secret loans to be banned. We want politicians that wouldn't want to take secret loans in the first place.
3. The media have reported that the money was used to fund campaigning in advance of the May 2005 General Election. So how on earth did the Labour Party expect to ever pay this money back? Again, how did Jack Dromey sign off on the accounts when his party had just spent the money from £14 million of loans that were still repayable?
4. If the donors in fact did not expect to be repaid, then the money should have been recorded as a donation under UK accounting standards and IFRS, even if it was called a 'loan' in the legal documentation.
5. The House of Lords last night voted again to hold the House of Commons to the Labour Party's manifesto commitment to introduce ID cards initially on a voluntary basis, the fourth such defeat for the Commons. The Lords have been simply splendid on this issue and have, if anything, demonstrated the futility of reform. We don't need a second elected chamber. The unelected lot are behaving much more like statesmen than the elected lot. And give me a hereditary peer any day over one of these New Labour stooges.
6. Please, no taxpayer funding of political parties. You'd then have the odd - and untenable - situation that any individual wishing to stand for election would have to fund both his own campaign and that of his major party opponents.
7. And we also learn that some of the nominees are asking for their names to be removed from the peers nomination process. It's a bit late for that, I think. How about instead they ask for their money back? Now that would be interesting!

Katie's Ballet Recital
Yesterday Gramma, Buffy and I hoofed it up the hill early to see Katie's lunchtime ballet recital. Nearly all the girls from her class go to ballet on Mondays, so it was a big group. Miss Fry even came to watch. The girls did naughty toes and good toes, they ran around like horses and stopped WHOA!!, they jumped, hopped, and skipped. They even took an imaginary trip to the beach. Miss Caroline asked what they each saw at the beach. Most saw their parents or Cinderella. Katie saw princesses. Another girl, whose behaviour has worried us all year, saw nothing at all. Very sad to go all the way to the beach and see nothing.
Katie was a superstar. She even fell flat on her face spectacularly. Obviously I wasn't overly concerned since there is a picture of the fall in the gallery. My goodness did Katie milk that one for attention, though. She had a crowd of many all concerned for her (and probably concerned about her terrible mother who was more interested in taking pictures than comforting poor Katie).
After the recital we left Katie at school and went out for lunch in the village. It was lovely, Buffy was lovely, all was right in the world. We pottered around the village for a little while until it was time to go get Katie. Big Girl Katie then managed to walk all the way home without a single complaint. She got a chocolate chip cookie AND a dancing fairy doll for her spectacular day. (We just hope she doesn't break the wings off this one like she did her last post-recital present.)

God cares about your monthly bank statement
Fascinating stuff from yesterday's sermon at St. Alfege, given by the Reverend David Walsh:
For if you want a mirror to tell you the state of your spiritual health, I can think of little more telling than your monthly bank statement. This is what God really cares about, the substance of your life, the reality of your everyday decisions. Little else in our lives reveals so clearly our priorities. Do our investments help to fund the arms trade, damage the planet, needlessly harm other living creatures? Do our purchases help to exploit workers in the developing world? Do we hide behind the anonymity of money and the power it gives us, to show no interest in what effects our decisions are having on the other side of the world?
Speaking to him after the service, David thought this was rather controversial material. I thought it was marvellous stuff, a real clarion call to us all to live beneath your means, not just in financial terms but also in a spiritual sense.
You can read the whole sermon here.

Defining the Self
Buffy is nearly eight months old. Now, I haven't consulted Dr Sears on this, but I think she's starting to be aware of herself as a separate being. That means she's now seeing me as a separate being, too. No longer am I just a milk-filled appendage. I think now she sees me as a milk-filled appendage that goes other places without permission.
Several times over the last week she has cried when I walk away. I find myself sneaking out of the room when she's not looking or asking others to provide diversions. If I could get away with it, I would never leave her side. Unfortunately, there are other people in the house who occassionally like to eat or wear clean clothes. Short breaks from my beloved Buffykins/Pumpkin noodle are, therefore, a necessity.
Today we tested Buffy on this. It was a teeny bit cruel, but more than enough funny to make up for it. Buffy had been happily playing Lego with Gramma. (Katie's version of Lego is to build an ice cream shop/adventure playground. Buffy's version is to suck on the long red one. Maybe it's the ice cream?) After some minutes Buffy pushed herself up onto her knees and started crying. We couldn't work out what was wrong. She hadn't hurt herself and it was more of a tired cry anyway. On a hunch, Gramma encouraged Buffy to crawl to whatever it was she wanted. We were all sitting in a line of sorts - Gramma, Buffy, me, Katie, and Andrew. Buffy got the message, put her head down, and started crawling very deliberately towards us.
I genuinely didn't know where she would end up. It might have been the blocks or her dummy she was after. She plodded along towards us (she was a good six feet away) whining all the way. When she reached my feet, she collapsed face down on my toes. It was so pathetic and adorable. I felt like The Chosen One. I'm so happy she wanted me, but I know this sword has another edge that is much sharper and vicious. Soon I won't be able to sneeze without consulting her first. Katie still prefers I clear all bodily functions with her, so I guess it will just be more of the same.

She's Here!
Gramma's here! We are all so excited. Katie celebrated by giving everyone tiaras to wear and donned her fairy wings. Andrew celebrated by baking some classic American cookies (wrestling a difficult recipe that has beaten me TWICE into delicious submission). I am celebrating by having long talks with my mom and spilling all the beans here. Buffy is celebrating by banging some blocks together and shouting, "AAAGGGHGHAHAHAAAAA!" We all think our own way is best.
It's been two months since Gramma last saw the girls. We couldn't wait to see what would impress her most. Katie read some stories confidently and Gramma beamed. Buffy crawled to her and smiled her little head off to make Gramma smile and clap her hands proudly. Katie helped me make a healthy fruit salad and Gramma ate it all up appreciatively. Gramma also really enjoyed Andrew's scrummy cookies. But what really got her going? The one thing that above all others made me bounce with glee that she really *got* how amazing these girls are? Katie on the computer.
Gramma was emailing when Katie asked if she could play rollercoaster. Gramma thought this might be a Lego thing, but no, it's a computer thing. Gramma thought she might need to help, but no, Katie's done this before. Gramma stepped aside and let Katie roll. Katie pulled up the chair, and deftly moved the mouse over to Start. Gramma's face lit up. Katie clicked and held the button down, opening Start then Programs then Games. Gramma's jaw dropped and she gasped as Katie selected Rollercoaster Tycoon and started building fences and hiring entertainers. Gramma is still lying on the floor in a heap with her tongue lolling and her eyes open wide, fixed on a point mid-air. It could be psychotropic drugs, but Gramma is more of a natural high type person. I guess she's impressed.
Good job girls, we got her!

Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich wants AC Milan boss Carlo Ancelotti to replace the axed Luiz Felipe Scolari. The Italian has an agreement to leave the San Siro Stadium at the end of the season. (The Sun)
"Chelsea owner Roman Abramovich" tried to talk Ancelotti into the Chelsea job last summer. Carlo Ancelotti didn't bite then nor do I see him jumping ship mid season to manage Chelsea now.
Roberto Mancini and Frank Rijkaard head the managerial shortlist as Chelsea only want an experienced coach currently out of work, allowing them to take over immediately. (Daily Telegraph, Times)
Roberto Mancini down fall with Inter Milan was the same as Avram Grant at Chelsea. Both failed to win the Champions League. Despite that little fact Mancini is a fine coach in his own right. Remember saying last summer Rijkaard was the man Chelsea should of looked to all long. His Barcelona teams played "beautiful football" while winning titles in Spain and more importantly the Champions League. Also up until the bitter end Rijkaard did a masterful job managing the massive egos that comes with coaching a club like Barcelona.
Scolari's agent says Chelsea's failure to sign Robinho contributed to his downfall. "He wanted Robinho but Chelsea didn't want to spend the money," said Acaz Felleger. (Daily Mail)
It didn't help, that much is certain. Also losing Steve Clarke was a factor. Finally selling Wayne Bridge for 11 million pounds and not being able to spend it on another player all sealed Scolari's faith.
Portsmouth are lining up former England and Manchester City manager Sven-Goran Eriksson to replace Tony Adams at Fratton Park. (Various)
Even with his shaky standing as the Mexican national team coach it's doubtful Sven will want to save Portsmouth from the mess they're currently in.
Ex-Chelsea boss Avram Grant and Alan Curbishley, the bookmakers' favourites, do not figure prominently in Portsmouth owner Alexandre Gaydamak's thoughts. (Daily Telegraph)
Grant is another case of a manager unlikely to be interested. Curbishley would be good in this spot. During his time at Charlton were always comfortably mid table. Looking how far Charlton has fallen since he has left? Currently they are last in the Championship with a one way ticket to the third tier of English football. Plus he somehow managed to keep West Ham up in 2007. Then again he also had Carlos Tevez to call upon back then.
Liverpool striker Andrey Voronin, currently on loan at Hertha Berlin, says he would go back to Anfield to ease the striker crisis after the departure of Robbie Keane. (Various)
Don't think many Liverpool fans are going "If we have Andrey Voronin we'd be top of the table." Out of sight, largely out of mind.
Blackburn boss Sam Allardyce is backing keeper Paul Robinson to become England's number one once again, despite missing out on Fabio Capello's squad to face Spain. (Express)
Despite Paul Robinson's miss against Croatia which clouds things, he wasn't really that bad of a number one for England.
Steven Gerrard's wife Alex says the credit crunch has put a stop to extravagant spending by WAGs. (The Sun)
A rise in legal fees thanks for Gerrard's recent arrest doesn't help matters either. (Hey sorry the joke was there)

Fig trees produce sweet, soft fruit suitable for cooking, canning, jellies or eating fresh. The trees grow readily and range in height from 10 to 30 feet. Figs come in two main varieties, green or black. Beyond this basic distinction, gardeners will find many varieties to choose from. Purchase a fig tree in the spring and plant soon so the tree is well established for winter's cold temperatures. Fig trees planted in the fall may suffer if your area experiences cold temperatures.
Create a list of fig varieties you're interested in planting, using the lists at Purdue University and California Rare Fruit Growers (see Resources). Black Mission, Brown Turkey and Celeste are commonly grown black figs. Popular green fig cultivars include Kadota and Adriatic. In general, black figs have a sweeter taste, while green figs have a lighter, fresher flavor.
Visit local garden centers and nurseries to browse available fig trees. If you don't see varieties you are interested in planting, ask nursery staff if trees can be ordered. If not, ask for a similar fig tree that will perform well in your area.
Examine the fig trees once you've located a suitable variety. Select a tree with a straight trunk and strong, healthy branches. Avoid trees with weak branches. If you're purchasing a bare-root fig tree, choose one with plenty of roots and avoid trees with scraggly or slender roots.

This blog, this year, 2012, is a tribute to my mother, Norma Carder. She would have turned 60 on July 29th. What started out as a blog for healing in 2009, will hopefully turn into a recording of a GREAT life in her honor this year. My goal is to blog once a week about my journey to accomplish 60 tasks that will make me a stronger, healthier, kinder, more well-rounded woman. In an effort to live the way she lived, I am choosing to live a GREAT LIFE.

So, It's Been Awhile
I could complain, I could describe the stress or trials, but really why? Here is the important piece: Kaden is ok. His leg will heal, and our family will be just fine. What is money? Really, it means nothing at the end of the day.
Thanks to all of our wonderful friends and family. Really, how could we get through day by day without them. We had friends from our church build a ramp so we can wheel Kaden out the front door. We had others bring movies, cards, flowers, games and just about anything you could ask for. We had people praying all over the country for Kaden as he entered surgery.
If there is anything that mom taught me it was, "Life is not fair! But God is Good." He is.
As the 4th of July dawns every year, I think of sweet Devin Cole. He only graced this earth 23 months, and yet his courageous parents and grandparents live a life that honors who he was. I'm sure Devin looks down from heaven with pride, and I can only hope to live that type of life for mom as well.
May God truly bless anyone that is reading this that is struggling to find the purpose of living in joy. I pray that you will find the strength to live a GREAT life no matter your circumstance.

Well, I see your nipping things right in the bud as usual. LOL. Putting things in perspective...God is good and I, for one, paid a lot of money to figure out that sometimes life just isn't fair, and I still don't like it, nor do I understand. But, then I pray and I have a great safety net with Him and a solid circle of friends. One of whom, is you.ReplyDelete

Previously, in Days of High Adventure…
Lost and Found have come to the city of Diyun, the Hanging City, a city blockaded by the Iron Circle pirate band, seeking information about the legend of Skull City, and passage from the shores of Nerath.
Kagamungo, Diyun's mysterious ruler, is in posession of a map, showing the location of Skull Island, which the party has decided to steal.
Lost and Found has traded in their old ship, the Sure Strike, for a captured Iron Circle Caravel, Glory of Chaos. Captain Roche Teezle and Puddleby stay on with the party.
The party is now in posession of the Book of Vile Darkness, said to be Acererak's personal journal of his studies when he walked the mortal plane. Any who open the book are bound to it and its corrupting magic.
The book is desired by every evil creature and faction, and the party will have no rest while it is in their possession. They need someone to willingly read it using the Book of VIle Darkness.
But first, the map.

Yutniotic holds a special place in our hearts and when Rise Now asked us if we knew of a school where they could built a playground we immediately thought of their middle school.
Today was the playground's inauguration and, as usual, going to Yutniotic was an experience.
After wandering around San Juan Chamula and thinking we had gotten lost, we made it! We're late and everyone is waiting for us to start the ceremony. Molly is invited to participate along with our friends from Rise Now. There are candles lined up in front of the President of the PTA and we see a chicken and a rooster (not a good sign for these animals in this situation). One of the student's dad prays in Tzotzil as the candles are burning and another group of fathers is playing music. Fireworks go off, the ceremony has started! There is dancing, praying, music, fireworks, pox (posh, a VERY strong corn-based liquor) and Coca-Cola. The poultry meet their end and are sacrificed to the Earth. After a few more fireworks, the ceremony comes to an end and more pox is passed around. Keep in mind it isn't even 10 am, yet the pox has made various rounds among the fathers of the PTA.
Once the ceremony ends, we meet in a classroom with Rise Now's volunteers, the music is still going, and chicken soup is enjoyed. It's time to head back to the office (don't worry, we didn't drink pox and can drive!).
We get lost on our way back and end up taking the old road back to San Cristobal until our plans are changed by a tree in the middle of the road. That was obstacle number one. We try to find another way to get home and are told we can take a dirt road back, we choose to return to San Juan Chamula and thanks to kind strangers' directions find a road that can take us back. That is until we're stopped because they're about to blow up rocks with dynamite! That was our second obstacle. Lucky for us it goes off quickly without much noise or debris and we safely make it back to town.
What a morning!
