How long do Birds Live?
Birds can live up to 70 years depending on the species; most average 10-30 years.
But I have a cat (or a dog) so that means I can't get a bird, right?
Wrong. Tweety and Sylvester were a great theme for cartoons, but in reality cats and birds can co-exist safely. Cats and dogs can co-exist, right? You do need to realize that there are certain things to be cautious about (for instance, if the saliva of a cat gets into the bloodstream of the bird through a bite, then it can be lethal).
Do you sell un-weaned birds?
An un-weaned bird is a bird that is still a baby, and as such needs to be fed by either a parent bird or a surrogate. When the bird is able to eat on its own then it is weaned. We strongly believe that responsible bird and pet stores should only sell weaned birds for many reasons. The main reason is that regardless of what the store will tell you, it is not simple to hand feed and the risk of death and/or injury and/or behavioral issues increase dramatically when a novice attempts to hand-feed. Is it possible? Absolutely. Is it prudent? Absolutely not. On certain occasions we will sell un-weaned birds to professionals who can prove their hand feeding skills, but these birds are sold without any guarantee whatsoever.
I have allergies; can I still get a bird?
That depends on what you are allergic to. If you are allergic to dust and dander then the best way would be to go to an allergist and get tested for allergic reactions to the two different types of bird feathers: those with powder preening gland and fine dander (Cockatoos, African Greys, Cockatiels) and those with an oil preening gland (Macaws, Conures, Parakeets, Lovebirds, most other parrots).
Do you guarantee the health of your birds?
Absolutely. We have the strongest bird guarantee in the country, and more importantly, we stand behind our guarantee. The guarantee is simple: We guarantee that we are selling you a perfectly healthy bird. To verify that guarantee, within five days you need to go to an Avian Vet and get any and all testing you prefer to do on your bird, at your expense. We can guide you as to the tests we suggest. If the results are not perfect but the bird can be easily treated, then we pay for all medications and all treatment. If the results are unacceptable then we either replace your bird or refund 100% of the purchase price of your bird, at our option.
Why don't you guarantee the bird longer than five days?
We have 100% control over the bird's environment at our store, but have no control over the bird once it leaves. We guarantee that when the bird leaves the store that it has been properly socialized, and that it is 100% healthy. Your new bird has been given an excellent start here at Golden Cockatoo, and it is now your responsibility to properly care for your bird. We are always here to help you take the best care of your bird with the biggest variety and best quality bird products available in the world.
What does your "Lifetime Guarantee" mean?
We guarantee that if during your lifetime, you are no longer able to properly care for your bird, or give your bird the attention it need's, we will accept the bird back on consignment and will find another great home for your bird. We do take a 40% commission and charge a nominal daily fee to feed and clean, but you can rest assured that you always have a place for your bird should the need arise. We are the only store in Florida to offer this guarantee as of the year 2000.
If I go on vacation what do I do with my bird?
We offer high quality boarding at the store or house calls to care for your birds when you are away. We were the first bird boarding facility in the country to require Psittacosis testing on an annual basis to guarantee that when you bring a healthy bird in for boarding, you will take home a healthy bird. Many vet facilities now follow this same procedure, as do other reputable stores. The fees for boarding are listed on this web site; they are very reasonable.
How do I groom my bird?
We also offer grooming services for a nominal fee every day from open until 1 ˝ hours before closing.

Günter Kunert
Günter Kunert (born March 6, 1929) is a German writer who left the German Democratic Republic (East Germany) to live in the Federal Republic of Germany (West Germany).
Kunert was born in Berlin. After attending a Volksschule, it was not possible for Kunert—due to the National Socialist race laws—to continue his high school education (his mother was Jewish).[1] After World War II ended, Kunert studied in East Berlin's Academy of Applied Arts from 1946–49,[2] but abandoned his studies.
He joined the main political party of East Germany, the Socialist Unity Party (SED) in 1948. In 1976, he signed a petition against the deprivation of the citizenship of his fellow writer, Wolf Biermann,[3] and subsequently lost his SED membership. Kunert was able to leave the GDR in 1979 with a visa.[2] He, his wife Marianne, and their granddaughter, Judith, established themselves near Itzehoe in northern Germany, where he still lives today.
Kunert is considered to be one of the most versatile and most important contemporary German writers. Besides lyric poetry, he also has written short stories, essays, autobiographical works, aphorisms, satires, fairy tales, science fiction, radio plays, speeches, travel writing, film scripts, a novel, and a drama. Kunert is also a painter, and a graphic artist. He has published in numerous literary magazines, such as Muschelhaufen.[4]
In his works, he takes a critical attitude towards Nazism, and the belief in progress. Kunert is a primary opponent of the new German spelling reform, and serves as a member in the Association for German Orthography and Language Care. He is also active in the P.E.N. Club of German language authors.

Monte Rio Musings - Chuck Ramsey - January 2017
Never before have I witnessed a total take-over of our government by the Religious Right. Never have I felt so ashamed and depressed about our country's direction and future. Trump's cabinet choices are unbelievable. As a gay man, who was proud of the recent advances our nation has made domestically and internationally, I now foresee where businesses will be able to openly discriminate against me and others based solely on their deeply held religious beliefs. As the former president of Sonoma County Pride, I was trying to expand pride to become more than just a three block parade in downtown Guerneville. At this point, there is little hope that gay rights will improve, or even stay the same, domestically, much less globally.
Of course the carnage goes beyond me and gay rights. It includes the environment, reproductive rights, immigrants, women, Latins, nones and atheists, healthcare, racial and income inequality, etc.
Trying to see a bright side, we are energized and united locally like never before. We will fight tooth and nail to prevent our country from being turned into a Christian Sharia state. We will protect our progressive values.
While we may not expect much progress on the national level, each of us can make a difference on the local level. We can work to continue to improve our River communities. In this respect, the new year does signify hope, optimism, and continued progress. We are seeing more local control and are raising our expectations for what we want in our communities. We are raising pride in living in the River. We have dedicated people serving our community on many different organizations, in many different capacities. Yes, together we are stronger.
One success story last year was the formation and addition of Guerneville Community Alliance to the Russian River Alliance. Russian River Alliance is a successor to Redevelopment. It is comprised of local organizations that work together providing a unified voice, for our residents and businesses. We represent our local interests and work with Sonoma County Government to make things happen. I am pleased that Jen Wertz will now be writing a local column in the Gazette dedicated to the Alliance. It will provide more information on what issues we are addressing and will provide a better means of increasing dialogue, developing solutions, and seeing that results are in-deed being obtained. I encourage you to read her column, as well as Rio Nido Magic and Guerneville Groove columns.
Again, I encourage everyone to join Nextdoor.com if you haven't already. It is another success story and is your best way of being informed, sharing information, and obtaining solutions to neighborhood or River-wide issues. Remember, if you don't have physical mail delivery at your home address you will need to be invited through Nextdoor by an existing neighbor member or contact me directly as Nextdoor verifies your residence address before accepting you. Want immediate information on crime or safety issues? What to know who your neighbors recommend to have your appliance or computer repaired or your house repainted or landscaped? Need a local reliable plumber or electrician? Want to know what local events or garage sales are taking place? Nextdoor works.
So, on the local level, we are seeing progress, and will continue to see progress in the New Year. We are River folks, and we are up for the challenge.
Vacation Wonderland. We just keep getting better.

Sensation Quotes (29 quotes)
Before a complex of sensations becomes a recollection placeable in time, it has ceased to be actual. We must lose our awareness of its infinite complexity, or it is still actual ... It is only after a memory has lost all life that it can be classed in time, just as only dissected flowers find their way into the herbarium of a botanist.
Complexity is the prodigy of the world. Simplicity is the sensation of the universe. Behind complexity, there is always simplicity to be revealed. Inside simplicity, there is always complexity to be discovered
— Gang Yu
I have sometimes experienced from nitrous oxide, sensations similar to no others, and they have consequently been indescribable. This has been likewise often the case with other persons. Of two paralytic patients who were asked what they felt after breathing nitrous oxide, the first answered, I do not know how, but very queer. The second said, I felt like the sound of a harp.
If it be urged that the action of the potato is chemical and mechanical only, and that it is due to the chemical and mechanical effects of light and heat, the answer would seem to lie in an enquiry whether every sensation is not chemical and mechanical in its operation? Whether those things which we deem most purely spiritual are anything but disturbances of equilibrium in an infinite series of levers, beginning with those that are too small for microscopic detection, and going up to the human arm and the appliances which it makes use of? Whether there be not a molecular action of thought, whence a dynamical theory of the passions shall be deducible?
In general, we receive impressions only in consequence of motion, and we might establish it as an axiom that without motion there is no sensation.
My picture of the world is drawn in perspective and not like a model to scale. The foreground is occupied by human beings and the stars are all as small as three-penny bits. I don't really believe in astronomy, except as a complicated description of part of the course of human and possibly animal sensation. I apply my perspective not merely to space but also to time. In time the world will cool and everything will die; but that is a long time off still and its present value at compound discount is almost nothing.
Of all the constituents of the human body, bone is the hardest, the driest, the earthiest, and the coldest; and, excepting only the teeth, it is devoid of sensation. God, the great Creator of all things, formed its substance to this specification with good reason, intending it to be like a foundation for the whole body; for in the fabric of the human body bones perform the same function as do walls and beams in houses, poles in tents, and keels and ribs in boats.
Bones Differentiated by Function
Some bones, by reason of their strength, form as it were props for the body; these include the tibia, the femur, the spinal vertebrae, and most of the bony framework. Others are like bastions, defense walls, and ramparts, affording natural protection to other parts; examples are the skull, the spines and transverse processes of the vertebrae, the breast bone, the ribs. Others stand in front of the joints between certain bones, to ensure that the joint does not move too loosely or bend to too acute an angle. This is the function of the tiny bones, likened by the professors of anatomy to the size of a sesame seed, which are attached to the second internode of the thumb, the first internode of the other four fingers and the first internodes of the five toes. The teeth, on the other hand, serve specifically to cut, crush, pound and grind our food, and similarly the two ossicles in the organ of hearing perform a specifically auditory function.

On foundations we believe in the reality of mathematics, but of course, when philosophers attack us with their paradoxes, we rush to hide behind formalism and say 'mathematics is just a combination of meaningless symbols,'... Finally we are left in peace to go back to our mathematics and do it as we have always done, with the feeling each mathematician has that he is working with something real. The sensation is probably an illusion, but it is very convenient.
Our popular lecturers on physics present us with chains of deductions so highly polished that it is a luxury to let them slip from end to end through our fingers. But they leave nothing behind but a vague memory of the sensation they afforded.
The great art of life is sensation, to feel that we exist, even in pain.
The hypochondriac disease consists in indigestion and consequent flatulency, with anxiety or want of pleasurable sensation.
The mind, in short, works on the data it receives very much as a sculptor works on his block of stone. In a sense the statue stood there from eternity. But there were a thousand different ones beside it, and the sculptor alone is to thank for having extricated this one from the rest. Just so with the world of each of us, howsoever different our several views of it may be, all lay embedded in the primordial chaos of sensations, which gave the mere matter to the thought of all of us indifferently.
The moon landing will, no doubt, be an epoch-making eventa phenomena of awe, unrestrained excitement and sensation. But, the most wondrous event would be if man could relinquish all the stains and defilements of the untamed mind and progress toward achieving the real mental peace and satisfaction when he reaches the moon.
The observing mind is not a physical system, it cannot interact with any physical system. And it might be better to reserve the term subject for the observing mind ... For the subject, if anything, is the thing that senses and thinks. Sensations and thoughts do not belong to the world of energy.
The sensation of colour cannot be accounted for by the physicist's objective picture of light-waves.
The world is a construct of our sensations, perceptions, memories. It is convenient to regard it as existing objectively on its own. But it certainly does not become manifest by its mere existence.
The world is full of signals that we dont perceive. Tiny creatures live in a different world of unfamiliar forces. Many animals of our scale greatly exceed our range of perception for sensations familiar to us ... What an imperceptive lot we are. Surrounded by so much, so fascinating and so real, that we do not see (hear, smell, touch, taste) in nature, yet so gullible and so seduced by claims for novel power that we mistake the tricks of mediocre magicians for glimpses of a psychic world beyond our ken. The paranormal may be a fantasy; it is certainly a haven for charlatans. But parahuman powers of perception lie all about us in birds, bees, and bacteria.
These machines [used in the defense of the Syracusans against the Romans under Marcellus] he [Archimedes] had designed and contrived, not as matters of any importance, but as mere amusements in geometry; in compliance with king Hieros desire and request, some time before, that he should reduce to practice some part of his admirable speculation in science, and by accommodating the theoretic truth to sensation and ordinary use, bring it more within the appreciation of people in general. Eudoxus and Archytas had been the first originators of this far-famed and highly-prized art of mechanics, which they employed as an elegant illustration of geometrical truths, and as means of sustaining experimentally, to the satisfaction of the senses, conclusions too intricate for proof by words and diagrams. As, for example, to solve the problem, so often required in constructing geometrical figures, given the two extremes, to find the two mean lines of a proportion, both these mathematicians had recourse to the aid of instruments, adapting to their purpose certain curves and sections of lines. But what with Platos indignation at it, and his invectives against it as the mere corruption and annihilation of the one good of geometry,which was thus shamefully turning its back upon the unembodied objects of pure intelligence to recur to sensation, and to ask help (not to be obtained without base supervisions and depravation) from matter; so it was that mechanics came to be separated from geometry, and, repudiated and neglected by philosophers, took its place as a military art.
— Plutarch
Tis evident that all reasonings concerning matter of fact are founded on the relation of cause and effect, and that we can never infer the existence of one object from another, unless they be connected together, either mediately or immediately... Here is a billiard ball lying on the table, and another ball moving toward it with rapidity. They strike; and the ball which was formerly at rest now acquires a motion. This is as perfect an instance of the relation of cause and effect as any which we know, either by sensation or reflection.
To awaken quite alone in a strange town is one of the pleasantest sensations in the world.
To say that mind is a product or function of protoplasm, or of its molecular changes, is to use words to which we can attach no clear conception. You cannot have, in the whole, what does not exist in any of the parts; and those who argue thus should put forth a definite conception of matter, with clearly enunciated properties, and show, that the necessary result of a certain complex arrangement of the elements or atoms of that matter, will be the production of self-consciousness. There is no escape from this dilemmaeither all matter is conscious, or consciousness is something distinct from matter, and in the latter case, its presence in material forms is a proof of the existence of conscious beings, outside of, and independent of, what we term matter. The foregoing considerations lead us to the very important conclusion, that matter is essentially force, and nothing but force; that matter, as popularly understood, does not exist, and is, in fact, philosophically inconceivable. When we touch matter, we only really experience sensations of resistance, implying repulsive force; and no other sense can give us such apparently solid proofs of the reality of matter, as touch does. This conclusion, if kept constantly present in the mind, will be found to have a most important bearing on almost every high scientific and philosophical problem, and especially on such as relate to our own conscious existence.
Treading the soil of the moon, palpating its pebbles, tasting the panic and splendor of the event, feeling in the pit of ones stomach the separation from terra these form the most romantic sensation an explorer has ever known this is the only thing I can say about the matter. The utilitarian results do not interest me.
We can trace the development of a nervous system, and correlate with it the parallel phenomena of sensation and thought. We see with undoubting certainty that they go hand in hand. But we try to soar in a vacuum the moment we seek to comprehend the connexion between them Man the object is separated by an impassable gulf from man the subject.
We have hitherto considered those Ideas, in the reception whereof, the Mind is only passive, which are those simple ones received from Sensation and Reflection before-mentioned, whereof the Mind cannot make anyone to it self, nor have any Idea which does not wholy consist of them. But as these simple Ideas are observed to exist in several Combinations united together; so the Mind has a power to consider several of them united together, as one Idea; and that not only as they are united in external Objects, but as it self has joined them. Ideas thus made up of several simple ones put together, I call Complex; such as are Beauty, Gratitude, a Man, an Army, the Universe; which tough complicated various simple Ideas, made up of simple ones, yet are, when the Mind pleases, considered each by if self, as one entire thing, and signified by one name.
What is truth? In matters of religion it is simply the opinion that has survived. In matters of science it is the ultimate sensation. In matters of art it is ones last mood.
Whatever things are not derived from objects themselves, whether by the external senses or by the sensation of internal thoughts, are to be taken as hypotheses . Those things which follow from the phenomena neither by demonstration nor by the argument of induction, I hold as hypotheses.
When coming to close quarters with a skunk one has to fear from an encounter; the worst is that effluvium, after which crushed garlic is lavender, which tortures the olfactory nerves, and appears to pervade the whole system like a pestilent ether, nauseating one until sea-sickness seems almost a pleasant sensation in comparison.
Would it sound too presumptuous to speak of perception as a quintessence of sensation, language (that is, communicable thought) of perception, mathematics of language? We should then have four terms differentiating from inorganic matter and from each other the Vegetable, Animal, Rational, and Super-sensual modes of existence.
Years ago I used to worry about the degree to which I specialized. Vision is limited enough, yet I was not really working on vision, for I hardly made contact with visual sensations, except as signals, nor with the nervous pathways, nor the structure of the eye, except the retina. Actually my studies involved only the rods and cones of the retina, and in them only the visual pigments. A sadly limited peripheral business, fit for escapists. But it is as though this were a very narrow window through which at a distance, one can only see a crack of light. As one comes closer the view grows wider and wider, until finally looking through the same narrow window one is looking at the universe. It is like the pupil of the eye, an opening only two to three millimetres across in daylight, but yielding a wide angle of view, and manoeuvrable enough to be turned in all directions. I think this is always the way it goes in science, because science is all one. It hardly matters where one enters, provided one can come closer, and then one does not see less and less, but more and more, because one is not dealing with an opaque object, but with a window.

Honestly, I have gotten a little bit behind lately on the memorizing part.... I have been working on Beth Moore's study of James, which is were my verses have come from over the last few weeks & I am enjoying it very much! But I haven't really been studying my verses like I should. Anyway, it is a new week & time to start working harder! So, I will continue on with my next verse & I will try harder to dedicate a special time of the day to study more! Can't give up! :)
Also, I just recently made these new scripture art prints & I love the way they turned out! I always think it's such a good idea to post favorite Bible verses around your house... They can be such great reminders throughout your day... Maybe these will inspire you! They are for sale in my etsy shop!!

Book DescriptionEarth is gone.
Centuries have passed since life ended on the blue planet. Humanity's survivors are now dispersed among distant colonies, thousands of light years from the barren, frozen rock that was once their home.
At a time when power means everything, the ultimate power, the imperium, rests with the Consulate Magistratus. In return for its protection, citizens must concede their rights absolutely. The Magistratus controls interstellar travel, access to technology, even procreation. Every citizen is implanted with a device to monitor their location, health and emotions. Freedom, religion and self-determination are anachronisms. Humanity's true history survives only in whispers of a secret archive.
Yet there are those who preach a new religion and who want to be free.
In the cold of a winter's night, a small village is the subject of a brutal attack. A fourteen-year-old boy, Jordi, sees armed men approaching and manages to wake his family. He and a handful of survivors flee into the frozen, snow-covered forest to wait for the preacher who told them their way of life was based on lies.
Shepherd, a freighter-tramp and smuggler, is commissioned to deliver illicit medical supplies to a hostile border planet near the Wall. He is dragged into a fight he does not believe in and a desperate struggle to protect his ship, his way of life and the lives of the persecuted few who seek only freedom.
A revolution is coming...

Weddings can take more than a year to plan. In the process, couples can lose sight of what is arguably supposed to be the most romantic night of your lives . . . your first night as a married couple. Today we thought we'd share some tips to make sure your wedding night is everything you hope it will be!
1. Wrap things up at a reasonable time. If you don't want to be so exhausted that you head to bed and immediately fall asleep, get a full night's sleep the night before and end your reception at a reasonable time. Remember, you and your spouse can leave a little before everyone else if you want. You're the guests of honor!
2. Curb the alcohol intake. Many couples want to celebrate their nuptials with champagne and/or cocktails, and that's okay. It's a celebration, after all! But know your limits, and keep the coming wedding night in mind. You want to be clear-headed and alert to focus on your new spouse.
3. Get away from it all. Consider booking a room somewhere away from where your guests are staying. If you stay near everyone else, you run the risk of getting disturbed by well-wishers, or even thinking more about whether your guests are comfortable than about your new spouse.
4. Stay somewhere sumptuous (or at least nicer than usual). It's your wedding night…of course you should indulge! Even if you can't afford the honeymoon suite, spring for something nicer than you usually would. It will help to set the mood if you're feeling like royalty.
5. Have a late-night snack. Many couples get so caught up with making the rounds to thank their guests and dancing the night away that they neglect to eat much of their reception food. Arrange for a light snack of cheese and crackers, chocolate-covered strawberries, or something similar that the two of you can enjoy while you relax and revisit the wedding day together.
6. Exchange gifts. Some couples exchange tokens of affection before the wedding, but it's also perfectly acceptable to exchange them after the wedding. In fact, we think it's a lovely way to begin your new life together!
Yes, your wedding night is meant to be romantic, but be realistic. It will come at the end of an exciting and exhausting day. Don't put too much pressure on yourselves to make it "perfect." Just celebrate your love for each other and prepare for a very happy marriage to come!

'CCIS Permaculture, Sustainable Energy and Sustainable Construction' (CCIS PSeSc) is the Environment and Sustainability wing of the Center for Critical Interdisciplinary Studies (CCIS). Headed by CCIS Board Member and Director of Operations Lucie Irene Ashley, CCIS PSeSc's mission is to research, develop and implement permaculture, sustainable energy and sustainable construction design methods in urban and rural spaces to combat environmental degradation and cultivate/nurture the sacred relationship between humanity and the natural world. At the academic level CCIS PSeSc is partnered with the UBC Geography Department, the UBC Urban Studies Program and the UBC Urban Studies Lab to interrogate the academic theory and practice of human-nature relations with a focus on agricultural and forestry in urban and rural spaces. In the R&D space that links our theoretical work to practice, CCIS PSeSc aims to establish a set of research laboratories across the Pacific North West in order to test and optimize new permaculture, sustainable energy and sustainable construction methods. In our practice CCIS PSeSc partners with for-profit entities like Energy Productivity Inc. to implement private (for private land owners) and social justice (for underserved communities around the world) oriented permaculture, sustainable energy and sustainable development projects that move from the methodologies developed in our R&D stage to real-world applications in order to bring our vision of a socially just world rooted in sacred, harmonious human-nature relations.
"Sitting at our back doorsteps, all we need to live a good life lies about us. Sun, wind, people, buildings, stones, sea, birds and plants surround us. Cooperation with all these things brings harmony, opposition to them brings disaster and chaos."
-Bill Mollison
"Dharma is sustainable living – life in balance. That which sustains life is Dharma. That which promotes integrity, health, relationship, happiness, love, truth and peace is Dharma. Dharma in nature is instinctual. Nature organizes itself in patterns, ecosystems, renewable energy flow, leaves no waste that is not a resource further in the cycle of life. The seasons, life cycles demonstrate the gunas flowing in balance. Growth, homeostasis, and decay are the eternal qualities by which nature maintains balance while continuously changing – like a flowing river. Every living organism; every cell and organ within every organism, lives in the midst of life cycles, energy cycles, chemical cycles that follow nature's laws of sustainability or Dharma.
Yet man breaks all laws of health, ecology, pattern, rhythm and cycle of Life. Most modern "developed world" physical, mental and spiritual disease is caused by lifestyle imbalances, and pollution of the environment by unsustainable farming, industry, transportation, energy, housing and war. Life out of balance is "adharma" - binding, diseased and unsustainable.
Permaculture is caring for people and the planet. Permaculture has developed principles by which people can live a culture of Dharma acknowledging that industrial and post-industrial society has lost its moorings in natural sustainability. Just as the Five Points of Yoga would be natural if we lived within the natural laws of health, and serve as a road map for a sick civilization back to health, Permaculture principles follow natural laws of sustainability that can help us reestablish our relationship with the natural systems of the planet."
-Srinivasan, International Sivananda Yoga Vedanta Centres
The Woodcarver
"Khing, the master carver, made a bell stand/ Of precious wood.
When it was finished,/ All who saw it were astounded.
They said it must/ be/ The work of spirits.
The Prince of Lu said to the master carver:/ "What is your secret?"
Khing replied: "I am only a workman:/ I have no secret.
There is only this:/ When I began to think about the work you/ Commanded/ I guarded my spirit, did not expend it/ On trifles, that were not to the point.
I fasted in order to set/ My heart at rest.
After three days fasting,/ I had forgotten gain and success.
After five days/ I had forgotten praise or criticism.
After seven days I had forgotten my body/ With all its limbs."
By this time all thought of your Highness/ And of the court had faded away.
All that might distract me from the work/ Had vanished.
I was collected in the single thought/ Of the bell stand.
"Then I went to the forest/ To see the trees in their own natural state.
When the right tree appeared before my eyes,/ The bell stand also appeared in it, clearly, beyond doubt.
All I had to do was to put forth my hand/ and begin.
"If I had not met this particular tree/ There would have been No bell stand at all.
"What happened?
My own collected thought/ Encountered the hidden potential in the wood;
From this live encounter came the work/ Which you ascribe to the spirits."
-Zhuang Zi

BALDWIN - With a casino bordering the campus, it's perhaps no accident that college coaches are starting to feel lucky when they come to West St. Mary High in search of football talent.
Thanks also to a technology strategy implemented by head coach Ryan Antoine, Bowl Championship Series programs are finding it's no gamble when it comes to the quality of athletes at a school with 350 students. Although dropping down to Class 2A this season, West St. Mary has three college commitments to schools like Stanford, LSU and SMU. That's unusual for a school the size of WMHS.
"It's pretty amazing, since the school is in a one red light town," said offensive-defensive lineman Jerald Hawkins, who committed to LSU last month.
In addition to Hawkins, running back-defensive back Johntrey Tillman has committed to Stanford, and Daijuan Stewart, who plays many positions, committed to SMU in the spring.
Antoine, in his second season at the school, said the Tigers have some potentially exceptional players, who are possibly overlooked by larger schools because of the school's somewhat rural location.
"I think with the three who committed this season, it shows we are blessed with enough talent to show everyone we have kids who can play at that level," said Antoine, a former defensive coordinator at New Iberia's Westgate High.
The problem was, the message wasn't reaching everyone, Antoine said.
Antoine took a step to rectify that as he created highlight videos of his players.
Instead of limiting his video submissions to just colleges, he sought a wider audience.
Using internet tools like YouTube and popular recruiting sites, Antoine said he developed more exposure for his players.
"Not everyone or every coaches knows where West St. Mary is, so I used the Internet to get the word out," Antoine said.
"Of course I also e-mailed highlights to coaches even though (the tapes) weren't requested. I wanted to put the tapes in their hands easily."
The school began classes in 1999, is comprised of students from the rural communities of Baldwin, Sorrel, Glencoe, Four Corners and Charenton.
Antoine said Tillman seems a perfect fit for a school like Stanford, which has high academic standards.
"Johntrey is a big academic guy as well as a good kid, who plans to major in mechanical engineering," Antoine said.
Last season Tillman gained 1,500 yards and scored 19 touchdowns on a 3-7 team.
"Stanford is successful in athletics and academics, and I'm going to school to get a degree. I've never been out there (to Stanford), but I know what a degree from that school means," said Tillman, who said he will play in either the offensive or defensive backfield.
Stewart is attracted to SMU's run and shoot attack brought in by coach June Jones. Jones used the same offense with the NFL's Atlanta Falcons and later at Hawaii, before coming to Fort Worth, Texas.
"What (Jones) does with the offense is more suited to my style of play," said Stewart, who plays wide receiver, defensive back and quarterback. "They plan to use me as a slot receiver. I've been up there to watch them practice, and I knew then that's where I should go."
Antoine said he sent tapes of Stewart to SMU and that piqued the Mustangs' interest.
"Daijuan went to a spring camp there and after seeing the tapes, they offered him and he committed," said Antoine.
Hawkins, 6-foot-6, 290 pounds, said he committed to LSU after attending a July camp.
"After I went to that (camp, LSU) offered me right away. Right now I think LSU would like to see me on the offensive side," Hawkins said.
Hawkins said Antoine's efforts are putting West St. Mary and his teammates on a recruiting map that wasn't there.
"What he did helped tremendously. We're a small town and know teams are going to know about us," he said.
A Stanford assistant visited West St. Mary to meet Tillman, while other coaches may no longer need global positioning to locate the campus, Antoine said.
And as Anotine knows, there's also the lure of a casino as a recreational diversion for a college coach seeking to better the recruiting odds.
"Coaches know they can come by, look at some talent and then go play a hand of poker," said Antoine.

JP Australia 2017 Surf Slate
7'6 x 29 115 Litres - Wood edition weight - 8.2kg (+or-6%)
REVIEW on the 7'2 x 26 here http://www.supgower.com/2015/03/jp-slate-review/
The super parallel outline of the Surf Slates creates unbelievable speed while at the same time provides generous stability. The short length ensures lightning fast reaction and allows the boards to fit into any size of wave. Use the extra speed to glide across flat sections of the wave or to hit the lip with full power. The double diamond tail allows for instant acceleration and a good amount of drive off the bottom. The tail releases very easily when busting the fins out.
The foot positioning at the tail is crucial for best performance and that is why we added a centered pad arch. The chopped off diamond nose is equipped with a soft channel in the center with bevels on each side for a forgiving "no pearling" entry. This flows into a single concave bottom towards the tail channel for a smooth lift and release. The Surf Slates are more suited to sliding, whippy turns and aerials under a breaking lip, rather than traditional surfing consisting of big carves out on the open face. The boards perform perfect in smaller, sloped surf rather than a large steep wall. A seriously good addition to any quiver.
Weight of wood 7'6 is 8.2kg
Weight of Pro 7'6 is 7.1kg
The boards feature a 5 fin option and come with a RTM thruster set-up. The whole range comes with an FCS plug in the nose to attach your GoPro camera
Good for the 80kg + up to 90kg rider in our recommendation

SUP INTERNATIONAL Review
As close as you can get to a 'Tomo' SUP; short , stable and fast on a wave. It generates speed and control in abundance, easier to surf than you'd expect and a great addition to a wave SUP quiver. A fine option for making the most of B grade conditions.
The compact board that started it all, true to the 'Tomo' design, low rockered, parallel railed board with the widest nose and tail in the test. This 8'0 Slate has a single concave throughout, with a channel in the tail too. This year comes with a tri fin set up (which works best) but still has quad boxes. New subtle look for this year with a shallow ledge handle which could be deeper, textured deckpad with centre arch and kickpad, Go Pro mount and the only board in test with windsurf insert. The lightest board in the test and good value in wood.
Brand Claim:
The super parallel outline of the Surf Slate creates unbelievable speed while at the same time providing generous stability. The short length ensures lightning fast reaction and allows the boards to fit into any size of wave. Use the extra speed to glide across flat sections of the wave or to hit the lip with full power. The double diamond tail allows for instant acceleration and a good amount of drive off the bottom. The tail releases very easily when busting the fins out.
Once you get used to paddling these compact boards with their wide flat noses it's really nothing to worry about. They track very well with their parallel rails; the JP is the shortest here but still wasn't the slowest in our glide test. At 130litres the Surf Slate is surprisingly stable when you stand in the correct place. In the waves this channel bottomed JP is pretty good at catching waves with its wide double diamond tail, and once on a rail it soon speeds off down the line. As a tri fin it turns loosely on the top turn and kept good speed. If you're after a quick compact down the line board that's stable, this larger Slate may well fit the bill; it may look bizarre and door like but it's very close to a proven 'Tomo' shape that works well. Not as manoeuvre-orientated as a standard shape board but it's great fun in less than perfect conditions. Would you sell your existing wave board and replace it with this? Doubtful, but it would fit in very nicely with another wave board in your quiver.

Well I made it to Taiwan safely a couple of days ago. Been trying to get settled in and recover from jet lag (boy, that's an ordeal!).
It was smooth flying the whole way...on the long flight (13 hours) from Dallas to Tokyo I even had a row of 5 seats all to myself!!! It was a beautiful thing!! Everything went great and then when I got back to school/my apartment things got a little wacky!
First, there was a rotting cat carcass on my front porch (Not sure if it was a stray or the lady's downstairs). It was so gross!! Thankfully, my head boss (the superintendent of the school) was awake at 10 o'clock at night and he came over with a shovel and removed it. Then when I got inside my apartment a HUGE FLYING cockroach (the size of a small rodent) decided to accompany me inside and start flying around the living room!! After that, I found two small maggots kind of inching around my front door (probably tracked in from my shoes). Then, I had a very cold shower (gas wasn't working) to settle me down for the night (not!).
Needless to say, it was quite the adventure getting home. hahaha
Overall, though, it's good to be back even though there is still some anxiety lingering around in my mind (and stomach) about starting the school year and other things. Prayers are always appreciated!
Anyways, just writing a quick note to let you all know I am safe and that I miss you all so very much.
I had a very full and blessed summer and it was wonderful seeing each of you this summer. I hope to keep in better touch with you.
Here are some pictures from my time in the US. Hope you enjoy!

Thankful for all my family and dear, precious friends that I was able to catch up with in person (some who I unfortunately didn't get pictures with...I'm terrible!) and on the phone. Looking forward to another great year here in Taiwan and hopefully keeping in touch with all of you back in the US.

I never taken hiv meds before. I was diagnosed w autoimmune liver disease earlier this year and started taking prednisone. I went from 180 pounds to 230 now and my t cell count dropped from 588 to 192. I'm 39..aw i just took 2 atavan and not freaking out as much.
Tonight was my 2nd night taking complera, freaking out about the side effects, what should I expect?

First, take a deep breath. You have to remember that when they give a list of side effects they have to tell you them if only one person in the study showed it, sometimes they don't even know if it was the drug that caused it. Until you show up with one, stop obsessing on it. You can worry yourself right into thinking you have them all.
Thanks for the words. Have you taken complera before? I think i just took my 3 rd pill. not sleepy.
No, but I take enough pills and they all have a list of side effects as long as your arm.
Dear Greatarchangels, Kaismama is correct, they have to list something if even one person experiences it during the trial study, and that doesn't mean it is going to happen to you at all. My counselor said that it almost immediately says for any med, OTC, or rx, headache, stomachache, rash, insomnia or anxiety, and those are common ailments in everyday life. Luckily, Ativan is not a problem with Complera, and I am so glad, I would be nervous if I had to start a new med like Complera or simply because of the condition that is causing you to need it. Take it with food, it does say that. And I am going to add you to my prayer list. Please stay here for some support and to keep you busy and distract you just a bit. If you focus on the illness and med, it is going to drive you up a wall. This is not to minimalize what you are going thru, it is a coping skill I learned. Welcome to our site, and please update us, we care around here. Patti
hi Patti: have you taken complera before? tonight i took my 3rd pill. i wonder how long it takes before i experience any of the side affects... if any. thank you for responding to my ad.
No, but I do know I personally can worry myself into a stew. I once said to my counselor, the power of suggestion is strong with me, she said, it strong withi everyone, that's why they call it, the POWER of suggestion. Try not to worry about things that haven't happened yet, she said tht too and tht is hard to do, but the most effective way to avoid stress for me, staying in the moment and not letting anything scare the pants off me before it even happened. Patti
Hello greatarchangels - Welcome to DC and I like your username... I have known quite a few people who lived good and full lives while dealing with HIV. Some of the most compassionate people in the world are those you are dealing with it and not letting it consume them. I have known people who became advocates for compassionate care for people living with Aids. Staying fit and eating well while maintaining a strong sense of "self" have grounded many a person living with HIV.
You are taking this line of medication for the very first time. One gentleman I know, for instance, says that as long as he takes good care of himself... he feels really well... kind of like nothing is going on. And, my ex b-i-l contracted the virus from a blood transfusion way back when before they started testing blood donations (1985)... he was a hemophiliac. He lived with this for quite a long time and these first line medications were not available back then. But he had it for 40 years...
I believe firmly that he did so well because he believed he was "well" and continued on with his life and also was an advocate for others.
Prednisone, unfortunately has side effects like weight gain and bloating plus making you feel kind of paranoid or on edge all the time. Is this something you are going to be taking continuously and for a long time??? You didn't mention what "dose" you are on... You might ask your doctor if you can take hydrocortisone instead of prednisone... just to see if this is possible. I take hydrocortisone for thyroid supplementation. However, I feel like I grew up on prednisone for various chronic autoimmune disorders and it has done a number on my bones. I can imagine your thyroid is not functioning properly because of the prednisone, if you are on a high dose. Do you know what your thyroid panel looks like?
I wanted to mention that as far as side-effects go... many people have none to few symptoms at all. Some nothing more than feeling a bit "off" like a general malaise. I want to encourage you to take really good care of yourself so that you can stay ahead of this. I can't emphasize enough how maintaining a good nutritional diet and exercise has helped people dealing with HIV because they are trying to keep their immune systems strong. Supplements and nutritional support might help you feel better as well. Talk all of this over with your doctor. Also avoid the use of alcohol especially since you have compromised liver function already.
Living long and strong is possible and only you can make that possible. Education is knowledge and knowledge is power... you have more power than you know and power will give you control over the rest of your life.
Hi Mary . Thank you for the response. tonite I took my last pill. Maybe it's going to be ok. :)
I pray that it is okay for you, greatarchangels. I really do...
Thx Mary" it wasn't my last pill lol i wish. i was my 3 rd pill. I think the ativan may be working to well. lol
Some how... I took that to me your last pill of the night but not your "last" pill. Appreciate the clarification and please do take care of yourself and keep the big picture in sight. You have a good attitude about yourself...
Hello to Greatarchangels! I also have AIH. Newly diagnosed Feb2012. Currently down to 5mgs daily of Prednisone. Just started a new treatment of 6mp(Metcaptopurine) 25mgs daily for 2wks then increase to 50mgs daily indefinitely. After reading the side effect insert, I was a nervous wreck BUT decided to try the meds, keep a daily journal of how I feel physically & emotionally. I know that my drs and his staff are only a phone call away IF I need them. Try to keep busy and active. I am blessed to be surrounded by wonderful family and friends that are truly always here for me if neede. I am 58yrs old and have never been sick till now. I send you well wishes and blessings. If you want my email you have only to ask. Take care... Mary (aka mbsunny54)
Hi Mary..Thank you for answering to my ad. Happy you are down to 5mgs of prednison, for how much longer do u have to take it? I have to take for a year. I should be having another liver biopsy coming up soon. stings like a bee.
