I am particularly interested to know where in the De Providentia do you or does Marin say that Prosper defends the notion that human will sometimes precedes grace? How did the reviewer not notice that apart from Marin's ludicrous suggestion that the decade of war would be an allusion to the Trojan war, his arguments dismissing Hincmar's identification of Prosper as the poem's author and hypothesis that it was smuggled into the and transmitted in the Prosperian corpus by antiaugustinian monks to be specious and utterly self-serving?

Already Hadot in his Commentary on Victorinus' work noticed Gnostic themes and motives. Tardieu, following Hadot's intuition, shows that both Victorinus and the Coptic-Gnostic Text "Zostrianos" follow one and the same philosophical source. Other scholars (C.O.Moreschini, L. Abramowski) have recently claimed that Victorinus has access (unbewust?!) to Gnostic texts. Well, a very intrigued topic. May I have a copy of your contribution?!

Sur le fond, je pense comme vous qu'il ne faudrait pas trop sous-estimer une influence du pseudo-Denys sur Achard de Saint-Victor, mais indirecte, médiatisée par les écrits d'Hugues de Saint-Victor. Dans le cas présent, au lieu d'une influence directe du pseudo-Denys sur Achard, le thème d'un amour au-delà de la raison chez Achard de Saint-Victor peut s'expliquer simplement comme une influence victorine, car ce thème se lit aussi chez Hugues (surtout dans son commentaire de la Hiérarchie céleste il est vrai) et surtout chez Richard de Saint-Victor, contemporain d'Achard, qui le transmet ensuite à Thomas Gallus. C'est à Thomas Gallus qu'on doit ensuite l'interprétation, si répandue après lui, des neuf choeurs d'esprits célestes constituant une progression de l'âme vers Dieu dans laquelle le sommet (le séraphin de l'âme) s'identifie à une dilection supraintellectuelle.

my name is Marianna Cerno, I am italian and I have an annual fellowship of the University of Udine, where I graduated in 2004. In 2008 I had my Ph.D. in Florence at S.I.S.M.E.L. (www.sismelfirenze.it) and I study martyrial hagiography of the early Middle Ages. In particular, I take part to a project of a two-volume publication about Aquileian hagiography directed by prof. Emanuela Colombi (University of Udine). For the first volume, edited in 2008 (the second one is due to be published in spring 2013) I worked on the Passio Donati, underlining its connections with the Passio Pollionis, while I was making the critical edition of the text of Passio Donati. These studies brought me to conclude that the idea of the translation of Donatus' relics in early 5th century was wrong (there is an homonymy between two different Donatus in Aquileian tradition), and also that Passio Donati was written in the early XII century, being a re-writing of the Passio Pollionis in a very specific context, as I tried to demonstrate in my edition. I am still studying Pannonian hagiography, because of the strict connections with Aquileia's hagiographical literature. That's why I would really like to read the paper mentioned in this post, if You can send me it. I can also send You a copy of my work. Thank You very much, best regards,

Marianna Cerno

Frend, Martyrdom and...It is interesting that W.H.C. Frend, Martyrdom and Persecution in the Early Church (NY: Anchor 1967)p.325 speaks of "the anti-Origenist Christology of Paul of Samosata".

In Jean Danielou-Henri Marrou, The Christian Centuries, The First Six Hundred Years (NY: McGraw-Hill 1964) p.217 we read "He (Paul of Samosata) condemned hymns in honor of Christ as an innovation, and attacked Origen (HE,VII,30,9). His nomination (as bishop) evidently aroused opposition in the more Hellenized circles of Antioch, influenced by Greek philosophy. The leaders of this group were Lucian and Malchion. The attacks of Paul's theology led to the convocation of a Synod, which the whole crowd of Origenists attended.

In F. Cayre, Manual of Patrology (Tournai Belgium: Desclee, 1940) p.176 Cayre says that Friedrich Loofs tries to rehabilitate Paul of Samosata by theorizing that he was a victim of Origen's school.

H.J. Carpenter, Popular Christianity and the Early Theologians, History Series #2, ed. Clarence Lee (Philadelphia: Fortress Press, 1966) p.27 At Antioch between 260 and 270 AD there appears the significant figure of the sophist Malchion, without whose assistance even a body of Origenist bishops could not confute Paul of Samosata.

I do not understand how Paul's Christology is defined (in opposition to Origen's or is it in opposition in the sense of "low" and "high"?) as "low Christology"?

In A New Eusebius, ed. James Stevenson (NY: Macmillan, 1957) p.279 we read:

Paul's opponents (according to C.E. Raven in Apollinarianism) were the forerunners of Apollinarius' heresy for (they held) 'the God-Logos...in (Christ) was what the inner man is in us. Paul would not admit ((to the Origenists at the synods)) that the Logos took the place of the human soul in Christ. Athanasius "On the Councils of Ariminum and Seleucia" (45) said, 'For they who deposed the Samosatene took homoousios in a bodily sense, because Paul had attempted sophistry and said, 'Unless Christ has of man become God, it follows that he is homoousios with the Father; and if so, there are of necesity three ousiai, one of the previous ousia, and the other two from it', and, therefore, guarding against this, they said with good reason, that Christ was not ((in this way)) homoousios.

It is interesting that any credibility could be given to any scholia which might attempt to compare Origen's Christology in any way to that of Paul of Samosata.Gaulhttps://email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4691107643479417770.post-86693615138471877672012-01-30T12:08:35.112-08:002012-01-30T12:08:35.112-08:00There are ONLY 38 Books of Scripture in the OT.

As someone interested in the topic, but outside the religion industry, my largest problem is getting access to the current writings by people in the industry. They are either very expensive or hard to access.

Would it be great if someone set up a web server, perhaps with a forum mechanism, but that is a detail, where a large group of potentially prescreened people could write the thesis/synopsis of as many peer reviewed papers in the industry as possible. Not reviews or opinions, but the thesis statement, and perhaps the arguments of the paper in outline form.

This would then be available to VIEW by everyone, and perhaps COMMENT/DISCUSS (remember it is set up with a forum mechanism) by others (perhaps different than the contributors)

I used to help Dr Robert M. Price for years with his technical stuff. I am now a retired computer worker that has studied early christianity for almost 20+ years now. I believe that such a mechanism would 1) enable seriously interested lay people to stay more informed of the details of what is happening in the industry, 2) would create a community of both seriously interested lay people, and open minded professionals due to the community that would result in such a multi person effort community, and 3) would enable people that are seriously interested in the subject have a place to go to find out the general outlines of the arguments being made in the industry without having to pay money or find some kind of special access to the industry.

As a retired computer industry worker, I would be happy to build such a thing, at no cost, which would operate for less than $20 a month of server and bandwidth, and if you or anyone is interested in the concept, please feel free to contact me by email.

Alberta Tar Sands Sustainability Report
Tar sands are a combination of clay, sand, water, and bitumen. As a type of unconventional petroleum deposit, tar sands are found in many places worldwide, the largest deposits are found in Alberta, Canada. The Alberta tar sand deposits contain more than 70.8% of the world's reserves of natural bitumen which representing 40% of the world's combined extra-heavy crude oil and crude bitumen reserves. It is the only bitumen deposits that are economically recoverable for conversion to synthetic crude oil at the price range of $25-$35 per barrel. Although substantial amount of the world's oil is in the form of tar sands, it is not all recoverable. Study shows that the world's total natural bitumen reserves are estimated at 249.67 billion barrels, Canada maintains 176.8 billion barrels. Northern Alberta's 173 billion barrels of recoverable bitumen requires intensive processing to convert to synthetic crude oil. However, there are serious social, economical and environmental consequences in the tar sands development. By grading the Alberta tar sands development on each of the six measures of Enlightened Sustainability Policy, this report will provide a detailed evaluation of the overall sustainability of the Alberta tar sands development. Purpose:
Grade: F
The development of the tar sands project against the purpose of harness private interest to serve the public interest. The term "Public" contains two aspects: the public human aspect and the public environment aspect. First of all, the booming economies of the developing countries and the obsessive oil needs of the developed countries have triggered massive oil sand exploitation in countries like Canada. Pipeline transport companies like Keystone and Enbridge captures this opportunity to make financial growth. Instead of harness private interest to serve public interest, these companies embrace their private interest and ignore the public interests. While...

Beaumont and I have a new routine. Every evening we get in the car and drive 10 minutes to River Park. Once there, Beaumont enjoys an hour long off-the-leash frolic and lots of wonderful opportunities to socialize with other dogs (and owners).
He loves it.
River Park is where Ellie the Wunder Pooch and I, as well as Maxie before her, spent countless hours walking and exploring. It has always felt like 'my park' and returning to it has been a gift of the puppy kind that simply makes my heart feel light and joyful.
Beaumont gets lots of attention at the park. People are curious about his breed, marvel at his cuteness and are surprised at how social and well-behaved he is for such a young pup. So along with being able to share about what an amazing pup Beau is, it's also been a great opportunity to observe and learn all about puppy dog etiquette and how to get along, no matter your size, breed or age.
Here are some of the lessons Beaumont and the park have taught me:
- Express your happy self.
If you're happy to be where ever you're at, don't feign coolness or shyness or indifference. Express your happiness. Let your smile be the first thing people see. Greet everyone with a wiggly butt and waggy tail, let them know how happy you are to see them, and let them show you how happy they are to see you. Lap up all the attention and revel in being part of this world of wonder!
2. Don't let the past shadow the present.
This one is a gift Beaumont gives me every time we encounter another dog. In her latter years, Ellie the Wunder Pooch developed fear-based aggression towards other dogs, especially small white dogs and Wheaton Terriers (how she knew the difference between at Wheaton Terrier and a Pitbull is one of life's mysteries that will never be solved). It became so uncomfortable that I eventually stopped walking with her at the off leash park and would limit her off leash romps to areas I was fairly confident we would not encounter others.
Beaumont has no such fears. They are all mine. Which means, every time we encounter another dog, especially small ones, I feel my pulse quicken and find myself holding my breath in anticipation of some not so friendly behaviours from my pooch.
I am letting the past shadow the present. I am predicting what will happen in the here and now based on what happened in the there and then of the past. In my negative fortune telling, I am creating my own discomfort.
I am learning to breathe and ease my anxiety through reminding myself, Beau is not Ellie and then is not now. This is the time to stay present and revel in the wonders of this moment right now and all the joy it has to offer.
3. Follow your heart.
If that leaf blowing in the wind is calling you to chase it, chase it! You're only a pup once and what better time to run in circles, chase your tail or simply follow a leaf blowing in the wind?
You only get so many opportunities to run free, to follow your instincts and explore the world in a safe and caring space that allows you to listen to your heart calling. Sure, you gotta also listen to your mistress and pay attention to when she calls you, but seriously? if that leaf is calling you to chase it, run after it with ears flapping, feet flying and heart pounding in the pure joy of being able to run after a blowing in the wind kind of thing.
And Bonus! You'll make everyone around you smile and laugh and talk about what a cute puppy you are! You'll bring people together and melt hearts and break down walls that anywhere else than at the dog park would keep people apart.
4. Always stay close to the ones you love most.
First off, they're the one who've got your treats! They're also the one's who are scanning the landscape and watching out for incoming BIG dogs. You know, the one's who's legs are soooo tall you can't see their eyes. The hearts that love you most will always be there for you when that 'bound over to greet the big ones' bounce of yours takes you just a bit too far out of your comfort zone, leaving you feeling exposed to who knows what kind of mayhem.
It's okay to come running back to the one you love the most because they'll reassure you and help you build your confidence to run off and play some more.
And another BONUS! They'll always give you a treat when you come running back to them, whether they call you or not!
Stay close to the ones you love the most, their hearts love you most too.

Nordic Naturals
It's that dreaded time of year in the Twin Cities: heading to work as the sun goes up and catching its last fleeting rays as you leave for the day. Pair that with freezing temperatures and dumps of snow and, well, hibernation suddenly seems tempting.
But this is a key time to keep yourself active and healthy. In a given year, roughly five percent of the American population will experience Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD). The risk runs higher the further you are from the equator. The coldest season on the 45th parallel is a slog, but we've got some tips to beat those winter blues.
We get it—crawling out of your warm, comfy bed as the weather grows colder feels like purgatory. Consider recruiting a workout wingman or signing up for a recurring workout class to hold yourself more accountable. If you're the type to keep hitting that snooze button, try to squeeze in a quick workout at lunch. For an after-work sweat, install some basic equipment like a stationary bike or dumbbells in your home. If you want something even more simple, download an iPhone exercise app like 7 Minute Workout or Full Fitness.
Enjoy the Outdoors
Easier said than done, right? But really, the Twin Cities are chock-full of fun winter activities including sledding hills aplenty (Lake Waconia and Staring Lake are a guaranteed thrill). For something more unconventional, try snowkiting, a winter sport which involves being pulled across snow or ice by a kite. Cross-country enthusiasts will love the trails in Theodore Wirth and Fort Snelling State Park. And what's a real winter without lacing up those skates at least once, right? Plus, skating is free at St. Paul's Landmark Plaza from Thanksgiving until Feb. 1, so there's no excuse.
Eat Healthy
Winter cooking tends to conjure up a lot of heavy stews and holiday feasts. But try to balance those dishes with some clean, lean dietary choices. Think: recipes with nutritious, in-season ingredients like beets, kale, broccoli, and butternut squash. Indoor Netflix marathons can also tempt you to gorge on sweets and carbs. Opt for some healthier snacking choices instead, such as popcorn and pretzels.
Boost Your Omega-3 Intake
Start your morning by taking a shot of cod liver oil. No, really. It's packed with vitamins A and D and omega-3 fats, which all help keep your body healthy during the winter. How? They support digestive health, brain function, and eye health, while also promoting a healthy nervous system.* Best of all, they can contribute to a positive mood—which we all know is often lacking during the winter.* Nordic Naturals products help nourish brain and body, with 100 percent natural supplements including liquid, soft gel and gummy omega-3s, probiotics and multivitamins.
Nordic Naturals
Take Probiotic Supplements
Probiotics are live microorganisms that can keep our immune systems in tip-top shape. In fact, taking probiotic supplements is beneficial for thwarting common upper respiratory infections such as colds and flus.* Some studies found that adults who took probiotic supplements during winter training had a significant reduction in the frequency of these infections.* Adding supplements such as probiotics to your diet is an easy way to stay in peak health when the weather takes a turn for the worse.*
Try New Restaurants
The Twin Cities' culinary scene is still buzzing even when the patios are closed. One of the best choices is the glass-encased rooftop patio at Union, which lets you enjoy a view of the snowfall. For a midday pick-me-up, sip on an espresso and crack a good book by the fire at Peace Coffee or Wilde Café & Spirits.
Sip on Wintery Concoctions
A wintery cocktail is the perfect antidote to a glacial climate. Try the Smoking Baptist at Uptown, made with mulled whiskey, orange tea, and a splash of Laphroaig scotch. Or go for the aptly named Jolly Poltergeist at Hola Arepa, which combines vodka with a ginger-spiced cranberry grenadine, thyme liqueur, vermouth, and spice bag bitters.
Relax at the Spa
Holiday stress can take its toll, so unwind with some much-needed pampering. Go the sustainable route with beKIND salon & spa which donates hair, recycles foil, and properly gets rid of all unused color from each appointment. Or, if your wallet is feeling too light for a cabin retreat, recreate a getaway at Bourbon and Bows Salon. It features gorgeous wood walls and cozy décor that you can enjoy while sipping a cocktail—the perfect place to forget about those winter doldrums.

Malawi Partnership
We are proud and excited to be partnering with St Peter's High School, Exeter and the Malawi Educational Trust, to enrich the educational experience of our children by learning about children's lives in other parts of the world and support the charity's fundraising objectives.
As part of our Christian Distinctiveness, we will periodically fundraise to support the charity in delivering their objectives. During Easter 2018, the charity team built '7 classrooms in 7 days' in Malawi. We prayed for the work of the trustees, project participants and the community of Chimbya, Malawi, one of the poorest parts of the world. We also wrote letters to the children of Chalizya Primary School, where the classrooms were built.
We also held a non uniform day in February 2018. We raised over £500, which funded several mosquito nets for the community, which were distributed during the Easter visit. More fundraising and partnership opportunities will be developed in the current academic year.
To find out more about the charity, please visit the website link below.
Tickets are £10 per person and include a curry and your first drink from the bar.
Tickets are available from the school reception or from Sean Keaney on 01392 467276, firstname.lastname@example.com

More than 40 women from across the state have gathered together in Little Rock to compete for the 2019 Miss Arkansas crown this weekend.
The group arrived earlier this week to begin the preliminary competition. Among them was 2019 Miss University of Central Arkansas Ebony Mitchell.
This will be Mitchell's third time to compete in the state pageant.
The Log Cabin Democrat asked the contestant about her past experiences, favorite memories and more.
She said in the two previous years, it was a challenge to learn how to take those failures and turn them into lessons but altogether, being able to leave the competition better than when she arrived has made a huge impact on her life.
"It has been such a growing experience for me as a young woman," Mitchell said. "Getting the chance to share a little piece of who I am with the state is my favorite part."
In total, the 22-year-old has received more than $15,000 from the Miss Arkansas organization.
Thursday was the group of contestant's last night of the preliminary competition.
"I am so excited to see what it holds," Mitchell said. "This has been a great week so far."
Miss UCA said being able to represent her university has been a dream. "Wearing the title on my sash gives me such confidence in how I perform during the week," Mitchell said. " I hope I am making UCA proud."
Executive Director Susan Setzler — on the board of the Miss University of Central Arkansas Scholarship Pageant — said they are pleased Mitchell is in Little Rock representing the pageant and the university this week.
"In addition to diligently preparing for each phase of competition, Ebony has made over 40 appearances [as Miss UCA]," she said.
Setzler told the LCD that Mitchell was also awarded the The Combs "Caught Ya In the Act of Kindness" Award during the state competition on Wednesday and received a $500 scholarship as a result.
"She is among the kindest and most genuine young women we have had the privilege to work with," the executive director said.
Mitchell said she's looking forward to that moment come Saturday — the 2019 Miss Arkansas pageant begins at 7 p.m., held at the Robinson Center in Little Rock — when she gets to walk out onto that stage in her evening gown.
Mitchell gave the LCD a peek into what it will look like backstage prior.
"Before the show every night, we come together in prayer and comfort each other while we are getting ready to compete," she said. "Each of the girls are so special in their own way, and I am so excited to be a part of it."
The contestant added that being able to receive the title would be just as incredible.
"It is such a prestigious honor to hold," Mitchell said. "I hope I have done enough this week to make my mark, and I will continue to do so throughout this organization."
The Miss Arkansas Scholarship Foundation is a nonprofit organization and a fundraising entity for the pageant, which has "maintained a tradition of empowering young women to achieve their personal and professional goals while providing a forum in which to express their opinions, talents and intelligence," for decades, according to its website.

Rewatching Star Wars Episode I: The Beginning/
Found this blast from the past on Youtube earlier today. Star Wars Episode I: The Beginning was a documentary that was bundled with the original DVD of Star Wars Episode I way back at it's original release. Looking back at it with nearly 20 years of distance, it's interesting in almost the same way that it's interesting to watch a car crash in slow motion.
From the very beginning you can almost sense in the glances between people around George Lucas that people realized George had no idea what he was doing, and that they had no real power to say anything about it. This was especially evident seeing John Knoll, the head of special effects on Episode 1, and one of the creators of Adobe Photoshop. Throughout the documentary he looked like a man who was just trying desperately to keep the train he had boarded vaguely on the tracks.
Take an hour or so out of your day one day and check this out. It's incredibly interesting to watch it to see how easily one can take a beloved property and completely mess it up.

One of the things I take pride in when making bags for Two Oaks is that they will be durable. Everything I make I think about how to make it stronger and last longer, while looking aesthetically nice. The lunch bags are no exception. I thought I would show a step by step photo tutorial about how the lunch bag is made, and reasons why it is superior.
I start with premium waxed canvas that is woven and dyed in New Jersey. This company has been making this canvas with the same formula since 1838. Each bag is measured and cut by hand.
Next, the top is folt down twice and sewn. This not only looks nice, but prevents unraveling.
The front and back are then sewn together, with stress points reinforced. Notice the top seam is triple stitched for durability.
Next the bottom corners are squared....
And trimmed......
Next, the sides are stitched so the bag maintains a clean square shape.
Now comes the leather. I use premium 4-5 ounce oil tanned leather that is rated for outdoor use. Translation: it will hold up to the wear and tear of daily use, and will tolerate water without any trouble. I also use nickle-plated solid brass button studs for secure closure.
The rivets are reinforced with the same leather on the interior for - you guessed it - strength and durabilty! I don't line the bags because the canvas itself is extremely water repellent; any liquid will bead on the fabric, and spills can be easily rinsed out under the faucet.
If you order a lunch bag with a handle, this is what it looks like:
I went with the KISS method for this design: Keep It Simple Stupid. Whats more durable than a knot in a piece of leather?
And there you have the final product! A simple design, built for durablility and longevity.

All Hands
All Hands is Hired By Q's Office Life Magazine.
I'm fascinated by the intersection of work and life (and why we even imagine they can be separated), so writing for them was amazing.
My first article for All Hands, Empathy is a Must-Have Skill for the Modern Office (April 2017) was written based on an interview I did with Sarah Larkin Birdsong, a New York City therapist whose consulting practice is built around helping create healthier and kinder workplaces.

Five Qualities of a Drug Rehab Expert
There are certain qualities that should be possessed by a drug rehab expert to be sure that quality treatment is being given. While there may be different criteria for what constitutes being an expert, the following five qualities are extremely important.
- Knowledge: The word "expert", by definition is someone who is very knowledgeable about a particular topic. Anyone claiming to be a drug rehab expert will be extremely knowledgeable not only about treating drug addiction, but about drugs in general. Drugs cause many different physical and mental reactions in people. An expert would have information on the various types of addictive drugs and how they are best treated.
- Compassion: Having an understanding of what a drug addict is going through helps workers to communicate and sympathize with what the addict is experiencing. Compassion should not be confused with having pity on, or giving into a drug addict's behavior.
- Individualized attention: Any expert knows that not all people are the same. Different people need and deserve someone who will listen to and take stock of the views of the customer. In the case of drug rehabilitation, that would be the addict. A rehab expert would realize that there is a possibility to learn from every individual, including a drug addict. Treatment should be partially based on each individual.
- Experience: Generally speaking, anyone boasting the title of expert has approximately 10 years experience. However, since it is not a requirement set in stone, there are many experts with less experience. There is no set rule for the number of years that constitutes being an expert. In drug rehabilitation, an acceptable amount of experience would be having dealt with a wide variety of drug addiction scenarios and patients. An added bonus would be having been an addict personally, but, of course, that is also not a requirement. In the field of drug rehabilitation, a satisfactory experience background may differ from client to client.
- High standards: Whether it is in the drug rehab field, or any other, an expert will set high goals and standards for themselves and their clients. A rehabilitation expert will try to expand their knowledge and hone their viewpoints on the best course of treatment for addictions. Their high standards for their clients will be in the form of objective, individual assessment of each client's situation, personality and mentality.
Drug Rehab placement specialists not only involves knowing about drugs and how they affect people, but also dealing with people on a one-to-one basis. An expert will be able to do this to better understand their client in their scope of caring for them.
Opiate Addiction
Sign of Opiate Addiction
In the scary drug filled world we live in, Opiate addiction is sweeping through the nations. Long ago, people used Opium on a regular basis. Coming from an opium poppy, this was a commonly used pain killer. Nowadays, people have developed severe addictions to this drug and it is far from helpful. The question lingers, though. What are the signs of addiction? How can you tell a loved one is experiencing this kind of drug addiction? One common sign and the most obvious one: the constant need for it. It's all they want, all they need, all they eat, sleep and breathe. Drug addicts will seem to not have good control of their minds, experiencing paranoia, confusion and some hallucinations that will no doubt be accompanied by headaches. The whole experience can be horrifying, as the drug causes addicts to have a lot more of physical appearance changes. They won't be hungry; they will slow down on their eating habits and suffer tremendous weight loss because of it.
Opiate Drug Rehab
Opiate Detox
When going through the withdrawal process, or helping a loved one through it, you will notice a lot of things. The addict will have spasms throughout his or her body, which will seem like a seizure. The drug will be working its way through the system, so be prepared for diarrhea and lots of vomiting. The recovering addict will be depressed and have plenty of mood swings. Unfortunately it is at this time that they should be watched constantly, as a lot of been known to attempt suicide at this part.
Not only is it hard to go through this, it is hard to watch someone go through this. This is why it is preferable to have your loved one attend a professional drug rehabilitation program where rehab experts will be able to care for him or her in the most comfortable way as possible. Perseverance, and the knowledge that you are not alone, is the two most important things that a recovering addict needs to remember.
The signs of addiction are not always that clear, so if you suspect someone is using be sure to monitor them closely and consult a rehab expert. 1 877-909-3636
Substance Abuse Expert
If you are a parent, chances are you have a poison control center phone number on your list of emergency contacts. You want a substance abuse expert to help you immediately if your child takes something accidentally. A substance abuse expert is trained to properly guide you through the steps to help your child.
If you are a person addicted to drugs, you want a substance abuse expert to help you get clean. Some people think they can break free of the addiction on their own. They say so each time they sober up or come down from a high. The truth is, a substance abuse expert is what is really needed to help a person successfully detox and learn the tools needed to stay clean.
Becoming a substance abuse expert is not like taking a job at a fast food restaurant. People who do such minimum wage jobs are to be commended because at least they are working and there is no shame in any honest job. But a substance abuse expert is someone who not only studies to become one but has a passion deep within to help others. Many times it is because of a personal experience affecting someone he or she loves, even himself.
Life changing decision
When you make that life changing decision, when you send an email or pick up the phone, you are not getting a call center customer service representative. You are getting a substance abuse expert. You are getting someone who knows what questions to ask, how to answer your questions and what steps to take. You are getting tried and true advice. You are getting a detailed map of what you will be going through as you get help and get clean.
A substance abuse expert is always standing by to have a candid and honest discussion with you.
He or she will know what steps to take based on your individual needs. Knowing what the drugs you are on can do to you and have done to you, the substance abuse expert will set you on the right path. From the time you speak to a substance abuse expert, you will know one thing quite clearly, from this point on, you are not alone. You are in the capable and dependable hands of someone who will guide you, educate you and motivate you to get clean and stay clean. This is one of those people who come into one's life that is never regretted.
Drug Treatment
There are several types of drug treatment programs available, depending on what a person's individual situation is. However, drug treatment can not begin unless a person recognizes there is a problem. Sometimes, even the people around the addict doesn't realize what is going on until it is nearly too late.
An alcoholic can go without drinking during the daytime and people may not realize there is a problem. However, eventually he could start sneaking a shot during the day. Problem. A person on pain meds could take the dosages closer and closer together until eventually, family and friends realize: problem. An addict could be on cocaine or marijuana without others realizing it but again, eventually they will get on board with what is going on. Drug treatment is available for all of these problems and more.
Once identified, the drug addiction can be successfully overcome with the right drug treatment.
Different rehab centers have different methods of drug treatment. Some use a philosophical approach which truly does make sense when you think about it. This type of approach is getting a person clean without the use of substitute drug intake. The more ethical programs do ensure that there are no underlying conditions that require a medical detox before going this alternate route. They believe in this method because when a person is given a substitute (such as methadone), the person can then become addicted to the substitute, thereby de-valuing the detox method after all.
Some centers use medical drug treatment. Some of the harder drugs like crystal meth and cocaine could actually have dangerous withdrawal symptoms and a medical team makes sure the detox goes through without unnecessary risks in these instances. This is why reputable drug treatment and alternate drug treatment programs believe in doing thorough physicals and checking for a dual diagnosis as well as implementing the proper detox drug treatment needed in each individual case.
Besides medicinal or alternate detox drug treatment, there is also the therapy and emotional side of drug treatment. Dealing with the undercurrent, with what caused the addiction, with what stresses the person, maybe hidden past issues, dealing with all of these and bringing them to the forefront can help stop addiction once and for all. Many women in drug treatment admit to sexual or physical abuse as a child or in a relationship. Many men in drug treatment admit to PTSD from war or a beating or a bullying factor. In the end, addressing the emotional as well as the physical side of addiction with proper drug treatment leads to a successful long term recovery with little chance of relapse.
That is the ultimate goal for the drug treatment center and the person seeking help.

For some time now, Mr D has been asking me if they could learn about bees. I'm not sure where the fascination with bees has come from, but keen to follow his interests we did some bee based work a few weeks ago (I'm just very slow getting this post up!).
We have talked about bees as we have spotted them on our walks and we have read some books. My favourite bees book is the glorious Bee Nature's tiny miracle from Little Tiger Press. This book is stunning. It really is one of those books that makes you want to stroke the pages (just me…?) and the illustrations are beautiful.
The story follows the little bee as he gathers the nectar from the flowers and helps the reader to understand just how vital the little bee is to nature. The book captures nature in all its glorious form and is a real triumph in that it is a non fiction book that truly captures the imagination of the reader as you're swept along the bee's journey.
We read the book and decided to make out own flower gardens for the bees to visit. We did this using some flowers from Baker Ross and scrunched up tissue paper. The children loved doing this, although Mr D went for a minimal effect. We then added some bees by using yellow paint and finger printing on the paper.
Once these had dried I add the black with a felt pen – it looks quite effective I think and the children love their bee gardens – they are proudly displayed on the notice board at home.
We have talked about bee's a lot – we had a bee's nest in our bay window and this prompted lots of interest from the children and some confusion as to where they were going to find some flowers (there are lots of trees at the front of or house but few flowers).
Next up I plan to make a hive with them – but think that might have to wait until I have a bit of time to think about how best to do it!

Michael was chosen from 120,000 drivers who were entered in the competition over nine categories. What makes this an impressive achievement is that 80% of Michaels journeys are in central London!
The short distance categories are based on data collected by Microlise telematics units. Now in their third year, these telematics-based awards are defined by analysing anonymous data assessed against a range of criteria using a process defined by the University of Nottingham's Advanced Data Analysis Centre.
The Microlise Driver of the Year Awards judging panel was made up of Bob Harbey - Executive Director (Microlise), Richard Burnett - Chief Executive (Road Haulage Association), James Hookham - Deputy Chief Executive (Freight Transport Association), Steve Hobson - Editor (Road Transport Media) and Nick Welch - Head of Technical Services (RTITB).
This is the second successive year that a Hoddesdon driver has won this award with Giorgio Lercara picking up last year's award.

After the incredible success of Pokemon Duel, Pokemon Shuffle, and, uh, Magikarp Jump, it comes as no surprise that The Pokemon Company is gearing up for yet another mobile game.
A job listing on LinkedIn for a principal game designer also let slip that the upcoming title will be using the Unity engine. Game Informer claims that this would be the first Pokemon Company-developed title to use the engine since the tablet-only Pokemon Trading Card game.
Naturally, this has got people thinking that the unannounced title could well be a mobile port of PTCG. And, considering how lucrative but crowded the mobile TCG market currently is, it would be interesting to see whether Pokemon could succeed in the face of such stiff competition.
That said, I'm almost certain that The Pokemon Company has used Unity for basically all its 3D mobile games, which means this next game could literally be anything. But rumours shall be rumours.
Pokemon as a brand just keeps getting larger and larger, and I wouldn't be at all surprised to see The Pokemon Company continue to double down on its mobile titles, crossovers, and ports. Really, it just means more Pokemon games for us, which could surely only be a good thing.

If you have or think you have fathered a child, the State of Idaho gives you specific rights and responsibilities. Although historically the mother has been given preference in custody decisions, Idaho is one of many states that has begun to recognize the validity of the father-child bond, even if the parents were never married.
Legal Definition of Father
Legally, you are automatically considered to be a father if you adopted or biologically fathered a child during your marriage to his mother. You are a "presumptive father" if a child is born or conceived while you are married to the birth mother, even if you suspect the child isn't yours. You are a "putative father" if you fathered or think you fathered a baby but were never married to the birth mother.
Custody Rights
Like most states, Idaho law gives both parents the same rights to legal and physical custody. In practice, nationwide mothers are awarded custody in most custody cases, and fathers get sole custody only 10 percent of the time, according to Divorce Lawyer Source, but the court system is starting to give the father's desire for custody equal weight. According to Idaho law, custody is to be awarded solely based on the best interest of the child.
Presumptive Father's Rights
If you discover that a child born into your marriage isn't yours biologically, you can file an affidavit of nonpaternity in court. If the birth mother and the biological father also acknowledge this, then the court may enter a support order for the biological father at that point. If you discover that you've been supporting a child that isn't yours and that the birth mother knowingly deceived you, you can file a motion to get your money back.
Putative Father's Rights
If you father a child out of marriage, you can claim your rights as a father by filing with the Putative Father Registry with the vital statistics unit of the Department of Health and Welfare. You may file before the child is born. If the county or other agency starts proceedings to terminate the birth mother's custody of the child, or if the mother puts the child up for adoption, you have no rights unless you've already filed with the registry.

Raksha Bandhan is not just like another day of celebration in India. The festival is of acute importance and significance. On this very special day of the year, sisters bejewel brother's hand with Rakhi thread. The thread of Rakhi is supposed to bind the two together forever. The grand festivity of the day is observed even if brother and sister are not nearby. The best part of this festival is its celebration. By the means of one rakhi thread, a sister passes her thousand wishes to brother. No matter, whatever be the physical distance between the two, the hearts are always connected and find a better way of getting connected to each other on special days such as Raksha Bandhan.
For the distant siblings who wish to commemorate the grand day of siblinghood even after being at a distance from each other, the best way for them is by sending rakhi online. Indians are migrating to different parts of the world for fulfilling their dreams and aspirations. Canada is one of the very popular destinations for Indians to pursue their dream career and education. In fact, in humor, it is often referred as mini India. For the sisters whose bros live in Canada, it was a tough challenge to send Rakhi on Raksha Bandhan, but the matter is now resolved in the best comfortable manner with online rakhi. It is such a medium that has solved the complication of most of the sisters.
Through the means of online Rakhi portals sister can send Rakhi to Canada from India very conveniently. Not only this, there are options to send Rakhi with free shipping to Canada as well. As the competition of rakhi online market is really very high, hence sisters can get benefitted by the competition by grabbing the great deals. There are many companies that offer free shipping services of Rakhi to distant places. By searching and researching on the options available, sisters can pick the sites that offer free shipping services to Canada or to their desired locations.
As the companies have their offices there, hence they convey wishes of sister along with her Rakhi to a brother at highly affordable cost. When the online mode was not so popular, sisters used to invest a lot in sending Rakhi to brother and their wish to send gifts or Sweets with Rakhi never fulfilled. But, great thanks to online Rakhi portals that have made it easy and convenient for the sisters to send rakhi from India to different parts of the world and that too at highly affordable prices. Elitehandicrafts.com/rakhi/ and Sendeliterakhitoindia.com can your best online platforms for sending Rakhis and Rakhi special gifts like flowers, chocolates, sweets, combos and hampers online to anywhere in the world.

talking to myself
My twitter bio states it plane and clear, I like talking to invisible things way more than real people. It feels safer and that weird social awkwardness is never there. But who is it I talk to and what on earth do I talk about?
Let me try and tell you.
I wrote this post a while back about the doors in my brain that sort of sets the scene. When I am reading tarot cards or hosting a talk to the faeries call, I walk down the part of my brain [hallway] and knock on the faery door and voila! Now I am talking to faeries asking them your questions and translating what they say back to you.
But let me try to tell you a bit about the different energies or invisible [people? spirits? things?] I talk to. Because when trying to understand yourself it helps to try and put it in words if only to understand that there are no words.
the cards a.k.a. Tarot
Tarot being an ancient recording device full of myth legend and transformative powers has a huge energy system attached to it.
Talking to the Tarot is a bit like going into an ancient library filled with books, scrolls and ancient words, but also filled with stories and pop culture references from our times.
Its a dark place of knowledge, and when I look at the cards I get bits and pieces of this knowledge. I catch glimpses and words and phrases and pieces of this persons story and that myth and this movie and it all sort of comes pouring out of my mouth.
The cards each have their stories, but the relationship of the cards is what intrigues me. Why did this one show up to stand next to that one and what does it have to do with the previous one. Is there a connection, or do they just happen to be sitting by each other? These are the questions I ask-sometimes out loud.
In a reading you will often hear me asking of the card why are you here? I am confused by your presence it's not at all what was expected, or do you have anything else to say?
the faeries
The fea are an interesting bunch to hang out with. I think out of all the groups I have talked to in my life, the faeries have been there longest [I just didn't know it]. Full of spunk and ideas and so much energy I remember hours outside which others deemed boring full of adventure and insight. Maybe it was just my imagination running wild and probably it still is, but really who cares.
After taking a faery doctoring class and being properly introduced to the world of faery I have spent the last six years trying to figure out a) how to help faery b) how to say I talk to faeries and c) how to help others by talking to faeries for them.
For some reason there has been an external and external struggle of epic proportions, which will be written about at a later date. Let's just say it involves not wanting to be one of those people. Stupid ego.
So talking to faeries is a lot like when I worked at the daycare or in the junior high art classrooms... loud and full of activity.
Full of advices they pull things out of my brains and make me say it. Like you want help working on your book well I just happen to read all these things and the faeries go and find them and say this one is for her and this activity and tell her to try this and oh ask her to stand on her head for 10 minutes a days for the next 3 days and watch the sunsets and go home a different way everyday and then everything will be grand.
I don't even know.
I really really don't. But it seems super helpful to others and the faeries love to talk and honestly they do seem to know the right things to pull out of my brain and have me say.
And it's really fun to talk to them, even the tricky ones, and although the darker ones aren't what I'd call fun they are extremely amazing to see in passing. I tend to avoid them but sometimes they have a very important contribution to make to a session or a writing.
Sometimes when talking with faeries I pull angle cards (the ones with words) or tarot cards to help center me and give me focus. because like I mentioned above it is loud. Rarely does only one feary show up to talk to you and me, usually its 3-10 and sometimes they all talk at once.
the guides [which is a HUGE variety of invisible beings]
In my shamanic training I have had the privilege to be introduced to many energies and guides, both my own and others.
Sometimes I tap into space energy trying to talk to the house or the land or a building to get it to shift or change or just to say hi and be polite before I stomp all around in it. This energy feels contained and spacious and tangible.
Sometimes I talk to animal energy as I need some protection or animal friends keep showing up in strange ways and obviously want me to know something. This energy feels earthy and cave like and like the animal itself.
Sometimes I talk to, well I guess spirit guides or angles energy or soul energy. This energy feels white and spacious and huge and all knowing and encompassing and often talks to me about healing and the ways of the world and checks in with me about purpose and why is this happening and hero journey type information. They talk slow, but sometimes I have a really hard time translating what they say.
The guide energy was the first one I was really aware of when I started on this path. I guess because it is so huge and different and calm that I knew it wasn't just my imagination. My imagination can in no way be that peaceful or intelligent.
The guides have lots of things to say about path and growth and safety and protection and healing and blocks in energy. Sometimes you don't understand what they are talking about until months or years later and then all of a sudden-everything is different. Guides don't understand time or timing because they are universal and eternal and time is an invention we use, so asking then when things are happening is strange.
So there is so much more to say about this but I think I am done for now...

My plan for my last day in Font was to climb at Coquibus Longs Vaux on the way out of the Fontainebleau area. However, we woke up today to everything being soaked and climbing was not looking very likely. This area was on the way to Normandy so I convinced my parents to take a look anyways. Coquibus Longs Vaux is a very small area of Font that would likely see little to no traffic if it were not for the Fata Morgana bloc, a large 45 degree roof with a plethora of hard climbs located on it. After a little bit of wandering I stumbled upon the boulder only to find a thin layer of frost and dew covering both the underside and topout. I was impressed by the boulder, which includes Dave Graham's Satan I Helvete 8b, in my opinion the best looking line on the bloc, and Fata Morgana 8a. The lines past this do much less for my tastes, most of which make links or add sit starts between these two lines., The others including Dai Koyamada's Angama 8c, Sebastian Frigault's Satan I Helvete Assis 8c, Fata I Helvete 8b/8b+ and Fata Morgana Assis 8b. The possibilities would do even the Centaur proud! After a bit it was time to move on and we walked back towards the car.
The bloc with Satan I Helvete climbing from the small rail to the left at the bottom of the prominent crack. It climbs up the crack, busting out to the arete and then to the top. Fata Morgana goes from the same rail to the furthest chalked pocket out right.

Font Photo Dump
The dog head boulder which gives Cul de Chien its name.
L'autre Toit, 7b+, Col de Chien.The Maxx, 7c+, Cul de Chien. The Maxx. This climb comes out the opposite side of the roof from Eclipse. Another climb very much so dependent on toe and heel tension. Unlike the others however, once one is spread out between the lip and under the roof, one gets to cut the feet and take the huge swing.
La Gaule, 7c, Bas Cuvier. These pictures do not do this climb justice. The boulder is much larger than it appears and while it may look straightforward, it has some of the more perplexing double arete climbing out there. Font's answer to the Mirrormask (or more accuratly Mirrormask is Mt Evans answer to La Gaule).

Font Days Two Three and Four
I woke up after my first day in Font completely stiff and sore, something I cannot remember being from climbing outside ever. My second day was a rough one, where I struggled on many climbs in the 7a to 7b range and only ended up sending Helicopter, a very fun 7a with a dynamic last move to a jug. My attempts with this climbed ended in me falling on my back and missing the crash pad last trip, so I was a little hesitant on the last move which I assume, due to the swing one takes, is what gave the climb its name. The rest of the day was spent trying new and old things and meeting a few French climbers who were both nice and extremely strong (as in 50+ years old and climbing 7c+). After not feeling my best I decided to take the next day off. We went into Fontainebleau and toured the chateau, an enormous complex that served as the King's escape from Paris. Late in the afternoon I eneded up returning to Bas Cuvier for an hour and wsa able to do Biceps Mau 7b, Holly Molly 7a+, and an unnamed 7a. For Christmas today I was able to get out for a bit and decided to go to Col de Chien, the home of one of the best blocs in Font. I had wanted to do Total Eclipse and after watching Dave Graham effortlessly cruise the bottom section of this climb over and over I felt that it would unlock itselve upon my arrival. Well this did not go as planned and the roof baffled me as much as it had on my last visit. I worked a number of the climbs that go out various sections of this well featured bloc and at the very end of the day I was able to climb Eclipse, 7c. This is one of my favorite climbs I have ever done and the movement is as good as any out there.

La Charcuterie Video
Here is an unedited video of me doing a cool 6c+ in Bas Cuvier called La Charcuterie.

Day One in Font, Bas Cuvier
I arrived in Font yesterday evening after flying from Denver and then meeting my parents outside of Paris. This morning we headed to Bas Cuvier, probably THE most classic area in Fontainebleau. I checked out a few problems I had tried two years ago and then a handful of new ones. I did La Charcuterie, a very cool 6c+, which was a climb that had baffled me last time I tried it. I also worked La Ballance, a very classic sloper 7c+ problem but could not manage to do the last move. After some tries on L'aerodynamic, a cool 7c jump start problem, I hiked around to find a couple of problems I had seen pictures of but were not in the guide book. I found both of the main ones I wanted to, Neverland and Imothep, which each climb some of the more rad shaped boulders out there. Neverland turned out to be one of the most confusing problems I have ever tried and I was only able to figure out the moves at the end of the thing. Imothep did not have a landing suited well for one pad so I ended up not trying it. So after a day of climbing here is what I have concluded: Ute Pass does not prepare you for open-handed slopers, jet lag is no good, big french meals are amazing but dont lend themselves to helping you climb, and Font is still and always will be one of the best climbing areas in the world. The first photo is L'aerodynamic, the second Infidele, and the last two La Balance.

I have not posted in a while mostly just cause I have not been getting any photos or video recently. The weather has been the suck in the Springs, which has resulted in a lot of 2 hour Ute Pass sessions after class with a propane heater and lots of chalk. I have been working Daddy Fat Sacks the last couple times I have been at the pass and it is coming together nicely. I would really like to climb it before break but I split two tips on it today so we will see how that goes. I have fallen at the very end a number of times. Tomorrow I am going up to the pass for some last ditch efforts. On Wednesday I fly over to Europe for a a week in Font and then a week in Paris. The forecast shows at least a few consecutive days of cold and dry weather. On the 4th of January, it is off to San Francisco to meet up with Simon and head to Bishop until the 20th. Probably will not get a chance to update much while traveling but I will post a lot of stuff when I get back.

From the Archives
I was looking through pictures today for the ever demanding JJ so he could droll over new V7s to do at Ute and I found this photo of Byron. I believe this is the single day that I have climbed with Byron and for the fact that Byron had not been climbing for months due to a should injury he sure killed the crux move of Daddy Fat Sacks.

Nick of Time
Ben and Max have been raving about this line they checked out at Ute Valley the other day. Being a skeptic of anything Ben Snyder finds cool and hesitant to spend an afternoon at Ute Valley (substitute here any number of other Crumblewood-esk spots) it took some convincing. I ended up heading over there with Tim today after class to meet up with Nick, Ander, and Max. The moves are of a very high caliber, reminisant of some of the cooler Hueco roof climbs, but the poor rock quality and proximity to the ground bring the overall quality of this climb down. I wandered off for a bit but got drawn back in as Nick dialed the moves in and started coming very close. Nick nabbed the first ascent, calling it Nick of Time (V6), and shortly after I got the second ascent. A little bit later, Ander managed the third.

Yes, its really that good!
So I have been trying to explain to my friends how good the climbs and quality of rock in Washington really is and I think I finally figured out how to say it best: Gold Bar makes Mt Evans look like Ute Pass. The granite in Washington has this amazing fine grained texture to it that is unlike any other granite I have been on. It is grippy without one ever having to focus on hitting crystals correctly. Below is Damien at the end of Rosbongo on the Five Star boulder. The Five Star boulder is a true world class bloc. I would rank it among the Dali Wall, the Mushroom boulder, and the They Call Him Jordan bloc for quantity of quality climbs.

War of God Video
To continue my Thanksgiving break media onslaught, here is a crappy video of me doing War of God (V7) at Gold Bar. Hopefully, I will be able to get some more storage space on the Colorado College server and put up higher quality versions of this video and Max on Megaladon. Stay tuned.

Gold Bar Video
Spent some time last night editing some of the video that we took over the last week. I am using quicktime videos cause I think the quality is higher but if things are not working out I can throw it on YouTube. Here are Large (28 MB) and Small (12 MB) versions of a couple climbs in Gold Bar, Washington.

Early Morning Sesh
Today Bryan and I woke up at 5:30 and headed to Gold Bar. We arrived at the Equinox boulder at 7:45 just as it was warming up to a climbable temp. I went to work on Twisted and had my beta dialed in pretty quick. After falling a few times up high on the easier moves, I was able to put everything together and send. It is hard to describe how good this climb really is, but I will say this: the rock is better than anything I have climbed on in Colorado. Next, Bryan and I tried Equinox a little but I was not very motivated and we decided to move on. We played around on some other classic lines but decided to go get on some new things we have never tried before. We went to this line that Joel put up on this immaculate overhanging face. The problem turned out to be pretty hard and we decided to move up. We tried two other more moderate problems but both were located in the forest and were a little wet so neither ended up going. Here are some pictures of Equinox and Joel's line. Twisted video to come.

Back in Washington
Thanksgiving day seshwan at Gold Bar. Boyko, Patrick, Damien, and I woke up at 6:30 as to be back in Seattle for our various dinner plans. We went up to the clear cut area in the morning when it was cold and got on a few problems before meeting up with Cole and Johnny G and heading to the Green Goblin. Boyko had a rad day, doing Equinox (V11), The Green Goblin (V11), Dave's Problem (V10), and The Ta Ta Box (V10). The following photos are Twisted, Equinox, The Rubix Cube, and Mt Index across the valley.

Ander made two weekday trips to Mt Evans this week in hope of sending his late season project The Dali. Despite a large flapper from his first visit this week, Ander sent it yesterday second try. Congrads man, a sick climb and even prouder to be your first of the grade!

Good news: Ute Pass is starting to come into season and maybe soon the Daddy Fat Sacks holds will no longer feel impossible to grab. Bad news: I somehow tweaked something in both my middle and ring finger and cannot climb right now. Hopefully it will heal quickly. For now here are two pictures of Julia Sick at the Pass

Late Season Mission to Area D
After a long and tiring session in Clear Creek on Friday, a whole crew of CC kids headed up to Mt Evans to wake up early Saturday morning. I decided that any possibility of reaching the rumored greatness of the Area D blocs would be worthwhile. And I cannot say I was the least bit disappointed. I think I can actually go as far as to say that it may be the single most amazing climbing place I have ever been too. Four amazing lines each up the center of an overhanging face each with no other way to the top peached high in the valley overlooking the lower Chicago Lake. Despite a little wind, we had a gorgeous day that was even a little hot at times. Amazing for October. We finished our day by hiking down to Area A and everyone sessioned a little more. I slacked a little on taking shots cause I was so blown away by everything I saw but here are a few.

Sport Climbing!!!???!!!
So I know my blog is usually about bouldering but just wanted to say that I am psyched to have sent my first 5.13b/c, Spray, at Elevenmile Canyon today. This is a a full four grades harder than I have ever climbed on a rope. Should I follow Ethans logic on Realization it would make Spray 12c or 12d. Maybe I have enough endurance now not to fall off the last move of Bushpilot cause I am pumped.

Cold Cold Climbing
The first block break of this year consisted of two days at Mt Evans and two days at RMNP. Old and new faces abounded and were generally friendly. Dan, Larissa, Ander and myself arrived at Evans on Thursday morning and packed in out stuff to camp overnight. Thursday was an amazingly beautiful day, probably one of the nicest I have experienced in the apline. Crisp temps along with a nice breeze made the clear blue skies still amazing for climbing. Everyone worked lots of stuff and I managed to come away with a send of the Mirrormask Stand. Paul attemped to climb the Dali wall in a day and in the process climbed Clear Blue Skies and No More Greener Grasses first go and Mental Masterbation second go. I worked No More Greener Grasses with Herm and Brian Capps for a while. Lynn Hill also showed up for a while and proved to all of us she still knows how to climb better than the rest of us combined. A true technician of style and form. The next day the skies had clouded over and the winds picked up but things remained dry. I had been eyeing the line Peasants into Leaders that Ben Scott had put up earlier this summer since I first visited Evans before school started and decided today was my last chance to attempt it before spending the next eight months regretting not trying it at least. After two falls from around 15 feet I managed to complete it to my great joy (and my spotters, thanks Ander for the body check to the pads on fall two). The climb is a true five star line and is one of the most amazing sends I have had. The next day at RMNP proved to be poor for climbing but after sticking it out under Tommy's Arete for 4 hours (I kid you not) durring rain, snow, and hale the skies cleared for long enough for Ander to do it. He was psyched and we quickly tried a few other things before wet looking clouds lead us to retreat for the day. The next morning was another amazingly clear day but Choas had been hit hard with a storm overnight. Most of the climbs were either wet or iced over. As we arrived we were met by four Jason Kehl and Abby Smith retreating due to the conditons. I did a problem that Paul said Dave put up that goes into the end of Freaks, it was sharp but still enjoyable. I spent the rest of my day working Bushpilot, falling off the last move a number of times. More ropes I guess. A strong crew of people from England also showed up. Si Moore made impressive progress on Freaks and I would not be surprised if he sent, assuming conditions do not get any worse. Dave Graham was also present to tell everyone that even though he was wearing layers and layers of clothes, it was not nearly as cold as Maine. On our way back down from Upper after looking at Jade, we were greeted by the angry cursings of JE echoing through the Canyon as he made negative progress on the Automator. GO POSITIVITY, GET PSYCHED!
P.S. probably the longest post ever written by anyone so if you made it this far give yourself a pat on the back

Block Break One Pictures
JJ demanded a 12 photo update from the last four days of alpine bouldering to make up for my recent decision to start sport climbing again. Well, I had plenty of sweet pictures but he shall only receive 11 shots. Details of the break to come soon.

11mile Session
Went to Elevenmile with Byron, JJ, and a crew of Denver peeps. Good energy and psyched which resulted in many things getting attempted/sent. Justin made a first boot of doom ascent of a 5.10 to the right of the Spray wall. Things got a little cruxy before the first bolt had been clipped due to the left foot boot factor but all turned out well. I messed around on Spray on and off all day and feel like it could go when my endurance improves a little. Smoke Signals also saw two more ascents and I did a sweet first ascent of a scary yet easy problem uphill from Chill Style. Check Byron's blog for video of it shortly.

FREE Rabies Vaccine and Low Cost Vaccine Clinic Survey (Anonymous)
In 2015, DASF sponsored 20 FREE Rabies vaccines at our first low cost vaccine clinic with TCAP. Fast forward a couple years and, with the help of our friends at TCAP, 100% of the rabies vaccines administered at the low cost vaccine clinic are FREE. As the population grows in Denton, so do the needs of it's residents - of all shapes, sizes and species.
In an effort to catch up with the growth of this program, we are asking anyone who has ever attended a vaccine clinic to fill out this survey. Please note, this survey is 100% ANONYMOUS. We are gathering information that will help us when applying for grants to keep programs like this one going. If you have any questions or concerns. Please feel free to email us firstname.lastname@example.com.
