comfy, everyday boot
"I love the heel height and the overall fit of this shoe. The only criticism I would mention is that I wish it was a 'darker' black. This boot is suede and the color feels a bit faded."

The annual Heritage Days celebration was held over the weekend in Huntington. On Friday night a Heritage Idol contest was held with many talented people performing their numbers before the judges. Winners were given certificates and cash awards. An ice cream social and dessert contest was held as part of the festivities. Al Shakespaere was the master of ceremonies for the idol contest and also entertained during dessert.
The annual parade was on July 3 with the Emery High Marching Band, numerous floats and youth groups traveling the parade route.
The Veterans were honored as Grand Marshals and rode at the beginning of the parade. A patriotic program was also held in the park on Saturday as well as booths, food and entertainment. A basketball tournament was held and the Huntington Glee Club topped off the celebration with their patriotic performance on July 4.

Have we really been picking Goats and Stars on the Nation for 4 years now? Oh how time passes on the bottom of the NHL ocean floor. Not a lot of light gets down here, every day sorta looks the alike after awhile. But they say that every dog gets his day and 2013 will surely be the year that the Mighty Oil rise up from the depths of the ocean floor and stake their victorious claim of some point between the deep and the light topside.
We aren't asking for all that much Gods of Hockey. Just a return to respectability. Respectability on the way to Dominance. Dominance on the way to showing No Mercy.
As we watch the Oil begin their ascent we will be sure to point out the people steering the sub.
Let 2009 Edition Wanye break it down for you:
Picking a Star – and later a goat – for the season has been a long standing tradition with our crew of pirates. For the duration of the season if your Star does something mad decent – lights the lamp at a key point in a game for instance – you get to bask in the glow of the Star as he is "your guy." Should your Star go stone cold – or get traded as was the case last year when we picked Erik Cole – you are forced to sit quietly in the corner, speaking only when spoken to as you wait for the regular season to end.
Picking a star is a tricky business that requires a great deal of thinking. Anyone can pick Ales Hemsky and be reasonably assured that they will look quasi intelligent throughout the whole season. But be like our buddy Lee in the 2006 Season who famously picked Fernando Pisani as his playoff Star – and your genius will be praised from the highest tower for years to come.
We have basically the worst luck picking stars. Not only did we pick Cole last year, we also picked Ryan Smyth the year he was traded, Chris Pronger the year he left town due to family reasons and Eric Fichaud so many years back on the hunch "he could make it as a starter in the NHL." On that note of taking needless risks, we have deliberated the options before us, crushed a few dozen BLs over the weekend, and decided on our Star this year.
Ah 2009 Wanye. You were such a simpleton back then. Didn't know what a Nuge is, had no particular affinity for HC Neftekhimik Nizhnekamsk alumni and thought 14 in an Oilers Jersey vaguely thought had something to do with MacTavish. You poor silly ignorant bastard.
But you do make a fine job of explaining why you need to name Goats and Stars. In both cases you need to have "your guy" its a multi year moral imperative. So please leave both your selections below, or update your Nation Profiles if you feel so inclined. And with your actions you take us one step closer to game time.
Hmmm. This doesn't seem to take very long to decide. Ever hear of someone by the name of KING BLOODY JORDAN BLOODY EBERLE OF BLEEDING BLOODY VICTORYLAND? THE KID IS A GENIUS WITH THE PUCK, A SUBLIME DISHER, CLUTCH CLUTCH CLUTCH AND HAS SET MANY THE LOIN OF AN EDMONTON WOMAN AFLAME IN HIS REIGN BY THUNDER.
Yeah Jordan Eberle will have to do for our 2013 selection. And every other year until the end of all recorded time after that too if you could mark it down. Coming off a season where he scored 32 goals and added 42 assists the 16th best scorer in the ENTIRE NHL is only looking to improve this season. Another year older and stronger - Eberle has been busy building on his already impressive resume leading the AHL in scoring prior to the lockout mercifully ending.
We predict Eberle will have a season of 35 goals and 40 assists. He may not be able to sustain his eye shattering 99.3% shooting percentage for the entire season as so many have already noted. However with a pile of souped up powerplay time with the return of Whitney and the addition of Schultz - 2013 will see 14 deliver the goods in the lockout shortened season. And he will do a great many other things too this year. Awesome things.
Believe that.
2007: Shawn Horcoff
2006: Ryan Smyth
2005: Chris Pronger
Some earlier point: Eric Fichaud
Some even earlier point: Dr. Randy Gregg
"Well ok," perhaps you are thinking to yourself "I can dimly follow this guys point about publicly naming your favourite Oiler. That makes sense assuming you are a superfan or an 8 year old kid. But why would I want to hate on an Oiler and name him my goat?"
Again why not listen to a voice from the distant past explain the deets. 2010 Wanye what you got to say?
Goat selection evolved a few years back when we had a buddy that would randomly pick an Oiler each game and rag on him mercilessly. "That dang (insert player here.) He is the worst player on the ice. (Insert GM here) should be embarrassed that he picked such a terrible player."
(Early 2000 bandwagon jumping buddies would hate) on every random player that draws their ire, loving them the very next minute - all in the name of being an "fan." The boys didn't think that it was sporting to cuss each and every Oiler only to shower them with praise on the next play and several half drunken arguments broke out over the span of a couple seasons to drive home the point.
Instead of playing our band wagon jumping friend on waivers, we all concocted the Goat. The Goat is intended to be the cause of all the team's problems for the entire season. Goal just went in? Damn the Goat to hell. He wasn't on the ice? Damn his stupid manner in which he sits on the bench.
The first year of two that we picked Grebeshkov to be our Goat was easily the best picking of our storied Goat picking career. Not only was Grebs brutal, but the team was too. We blamed him for most everything most nights and it allowed us to vent all Oilers related anger his way.
On a team that we hope finishes no higher than 30th place this year, picking the Goat is going to be key to maintaining your sanity.
Not nearly as dire this year thankfully. Flames fans may want to take some notes on sanity saving techniques with the season you are staring down this year.
This was actually quite a difficult bit of business. We don't think that the name of the game this season will be "try and figure out ways to keep self entertained whilst the Oilers skitter about like baby fawns on a frozen pond." A lot of the really goatworthy players are gone, traded, cut or bottled up and shipped to Anaheim via the AHL and Dallas.
No instead this season should be pretty sweet. The Oilers are young and in game shape against dusty old squads of players just waiting for a groin to get pulled*
We thought about Dubnyk but it isn't good sport to cheer against your starting goalie all year. No, we need him to be good. We ground our teeth while thinking about Horcoff collecting 12 billion dollars this season but we have far too much respect for the Captaincy of the Oilers to name him Goat. If you are in a trench and don't like your squad commander too bad. You respect the chain of command.
But last we checked Theo Peckham still remains the property of the Oilers. We can't figure Peckham out. A team that is willing to do anything to have young players fill spots meets a player that has looked like he had turned the corner into bonafide NHL toughian several different times. And yet there is no match?
How have we come to this Peckham?
You need to fight your way back into the lineup. And so far you aren't even close.
2008: Dennis Grebeshkov
2007: Some guy
2005: Some other jerk
Some earlier point: Andrei Kovalenko
Some even earlier point: Jimmy Carson
*Thats what she said
Peckham? Too easy. I'll go with Dubnyk as my goat selection even though I pray I'm wrong. Star will be none other than *drum roll*.....Sam Gagner.
January 18 2013, 02:24AM
Alright! I've been waiting for this.
Star: Taylor Motherf*ckin' Hall. I think he is going to have a hell of a year and if we make the playoffs, Taylor is going to thrust his manhood into the face of the opposition.
Honorable mentions: Fistric, Smid, J. Schultz, Krueger.
Goat: Patrick O'Sullivan. I thought about maybe switching it up this year. But I decided why break a good streak and go with Patty O'Sh*tbag for the fourth year in a row. When you suck that bad, and care that little, you're stuck on my goat list until the pain you caused leaves my soul untarnished.
Honorable mentions: Horcoff, Potter.
January 18 2013, 03:07AM
Star - Justin Shultz - Nominated for Calder but loses to Nail Yakupov.
Goat - Khabibulin - He'll get 15 soft starts agains the likes of Columbus, Calgary, Anaheim and some other poor downtrodden teams. He'll come out with a poor record of 4-8-3 taking 11/30 points. Of course, we'll miss the playoffs by like 1 point this year, because of him. He's my goat!
Oh yeah... Omark already because he's putting up shitloads of points elsewhere and could not find his ass in the dark with two hands when he was with the big team. Plus he's too damn proud to do what needed to be done!
January 18 2013, 03:34AM
Goat: Eberle because UNSUSTAINABLE!!!!!!
Star: Hemsky because sexy, silky-smooth Dangles!
January 18 2013, 03:56AM
Star: Hemsky, Is going to smash soft minutes with the Gag and Yak - injur bugs will stay at bay this year
Goat - Whitney: 2 left feet, injury prone, YUK - By the end of the season everyone will be saying "what a helen hunt!"
Additional Awards
Most Likely to be a serial Killer - Petrell (easy)
Most likely to eat you: Another easy one, Teddy Bear
Most Likely to suffer a "Tambo Moment"... Tambo
January 18 2013, 05:22AM
Star: Dubnyk, he has alot riding on this year, and after watching him in the Spenglar Cup working his mojo I still think he can win 30 this year.
Goat: Petrell, because the dude can't bring a damn thing other than the odd hit, how he makes it over PRV still blows me away.
That is all, good day people.
Star is Gagner for sure, he will show all the detractors what he is made of. He probably wont have the most points on the team but it will be cause of him in his second line center position that the Oilers will rise from the basement.
Goat is hmm.... wait a minute... let me look at my list again *whispers* Khabi, Peckham, Petrell, Potter... these are all fringe players in my mind, if they play bad they can hopefully be replaced so they do not effect the team. So I have to choose someone that is a regular and by their crappy play they effect the entire team. Candidates are Belanger, Dubnyk... going back to my list again... I guess the rest of the defensive core could be a goat and I think that Belanger will have a bounce back year and I think that Dubnyk will rise to the challenge of being counted on for 35 to 40 starts. There for my goat selection is Nick Shultz... no wait a minute let me check my list again, there has to be something I missed. It has to be someone younger and Nick Shultz should be able to handle the shorted season and the Fire Wagon hockey the Oilers will put out there. So my final decision for goat is going to go to Petry. I think he will regress a little in the maturity department.
Star: Taylor "drive the crossbar with my forehead" Hall
Goat: Corey Potter. I don't think his second half struggles last year were only because of injury.
January 18 2013, 05:43AM
My star pick for this year is Lil Nuge. Another year older and stronger expect big things from Nuge.
The easy goat pick is Belanger. Hopefully his powers of sucking are not strong enough to recreate the Belanger triangle this year.
I also bet a flames fan that the Oilers will not lose more than 12 games this season. Too much Kool-aid for me ?
January 18 2013, 06:14AM
STAR: J.Schultz GOAT: Belanger
January 18 2013, 06:59AM
STAR: Ladi Smid, the unsung shut-down D-man. Every team needs at least one, and they don't get any credit.
GOAT: Eric Belanger. Here's to hoping the "Belanger Triangle" that caused all offensive players in his vicinity to disappear from the scoresheet takes a page out of its own book and doesn't show.
Star: Nail Yakupov Goat: Sam Gagner
January 18 2013, 07:30AM
star: Eberle
goat: DSF
Star: Ladi Smid Goat: Mark Fistric
This is the year I buy a Smid sweater.
This is also the year that we curse Fistric for taking a spot from Peckham. You'll see. He's that bad.
January 18 2013, 07:57AM
Star: Justin Schultz. I don't think he's going to be the best player on the team, or even the best defenceman, but I think his skill, awareness and, dare I say, poise will win me over. Watching a talented puck rusher is one of the most exciting and unpredictable things in hockey. Will he go end-to-end? Will he connect on a blue line to blue line pass? Will he slap-pass for an easy redirection? Will he fan on the puck and give up a breakaway against? However it plays out, its going to be fun.
Goat: Shawn Horcoff. I just can't say anyone else. I want to. I really want to. Yet every time I watch a game, I find myself clenching my fists in rage, turning my face towards the heavens and screaming with a primal fury "HORCOFFFFFF!" If he would just not be awful, even for just a little bit, I would be fine with it. I'm not asking for great, I'm not even asking for good, just not awful. I mean, seriously, who does he think he is, Ethan Moreau?
Star: multiple but I'll go with HALL. Goat: Multiple goatish plays/games but overall NONE. (not this year).
Star :: Hall Goat :: Smyth Winner, Winner :: Chicken Dinner
Star: Petry: continues progression
Goat: Eager: continues regression
Since you already have captain clutch i guess I'll have to bet on 90% of Yak City learning russian by june. The kid will absolutely kill it. Calder Curse? No more. Хеммер хиты ногтей, снова и снова. Миллиард очков в локаута сезоне. Овечкин кто?
Belanger causes offense to evaporate. Everytime his shift overlaps with the kids', he decreases their career total by two points. Belanger will attempt to keep us in the basement all season.
January 18 2013, 08:15AM
Last year my Goat was so goaty that through sheer will of mind, and incessant internet thrashing, I had him shipped to some B league in Europe where he sits today wondering if the Oilers or any other NHL team has even HEARD of YouTube.
Omark, I will miss your poor defensive zone work, your inability to grasp what a system looks like, and the goal you would score every 10th game.
This year my Goat will be Old Alligator Arms himself, Shawn Horcoff.
My Star will be Sam Gagner. Samwise the Young is one heck of a hockey player, despite not being at the level of the big 5. He's intensely under rated because he hasnt had marked improvement points wise, but he's also had about 9 different coaches over the 6 years he's played in the NHL and this is the 1st year in many that he isnt starting the season playing LW on the 3rd line because the Coach was too polite to acknowledge that Horcoff couldnt play in the top 6 anymore.
I saw the headline and was anxiously waiting for the goat wearing Grebs' jersey. Star:Hemmer Goat:Horcoff
January 18 2013, 08:33AM
Star: Hall
Goat: Tambellini
January 18 2013, 08:40AM
Hrmmm, my star WAS going to be Gagner; after years of pointing out what a second line center ACTUALLY produces I was finally ready to cash in...
But then ten of you beat me to it.
Therefor I have reconsidered STAR: Justin Shultz (I believe he will score enough to make me a happy panda!)
GOAT: Nick Shultz (He is a character guy, but will be left alone cleaning up Justin's mistakes)
Star- Jeff Petry - made great strides last year.
Goat=me if i forget or change my mind about making supper.
Oilers Goat- Horcoff - he is done.
January 18 2013, 08:51AM
Star: Ryan Whitney and possibly comeback player of the year. Goat: habby! Won't be able to stay healthy to back dubby up.
January 18 2013, 08:52AM
I have to say that I totally agree with your picks, Wanye.
January 18 2013, 08:53AM
The picks seem pretty obvious to me ...
Star: Hall - as Lowetide says, he's about to go supernova. Honourable mention here is Hemsky, who is going to have a big bounce-back year.
Goat: Belanger, with the honourable mention going to Potter. I can't pick Teddy Peckman becuase I think you actually have to play to be a goat.
January 18 2013, 08:53AM
Alright! I've been waiting for this.
Star: Taylor Motherf*ckin' Hall. I think he is going to have a hell of a year and if we make the playoffs, Taylor is going to thrust his manhood into the face of the opposition.
Honorable mentions: Fistric, Smid, J. Schultz, Krueger.
Goat: Patrick O'Sullivan. I thought about maybe switching it up this year. But I decided why break a good streak and go with Patty O'Sh*tbag for the fourth year in a row. When you suck that bad, and care that little, you're stuck on my goat list until the pain you caused leaves my soul untarnished.
Honorable mentions: Horcoff, Potter.
Your goat selection wins the internet.
January 18 2013, 08:57AM
I almost hate myself for saying this:
STAR: Dangles McHemsky--Hemmer is putting together a comeback year that will have all of the clowns talking about trading him for a backup goalie jumping back on the bandwagon.
I don't hate myself for saying this.
GOAT: Jonesy--Your wonderful flow can't carry you all year.
Mark my words, Gagner is also going to have a great season. Just not as good as Hemmer.
January 18 2013, 09:01AM
star: Eberle
goat: DSF
Maybe I spoke too soon about Puritania winning the internet. Well played good sir.
Star : Taylor Hall, easy pick
Goat : even though he'll pick up 26 points in 48 games, his defense will be terrible and we will curse his 5x5 play.... Justin Schultz
Let me be clear though, this is a 1 year pick, soon he will pick up the pace of the NHL forwards, and he will regularly score 50 points and be plus 1 billion on the season
January 18 2013, 09:17AM
I don't see any reason to update my star/goat:
Star: SMID. No question.
The guy's a force. He hits and block shots with the best of them. He's defensively reliable. He's hilarious. He's always sharing that glorious toothless smile with the children of the world. And, most importantly for a Star, when he scores it's an earth shattering revelation of joy:
Just look at that sniper. He's unstoppable:
And the story of Smid is just as inspiring. Here's a guy that comes over for Pronger... the best D any Oiler has seen in a generation by miles. Smid is immediately thrown to the wolves and is crushed relentlessly by NHL-ready players... coming from ignoble birth (via Pronger) only makes the situation more hopeless.
And yet, he wins our hearts and wins a top 4 roster spot with his hard work and sense of levity.
I love this guy.
Goat: Cory Cross. I blame him for everything.
Star: Eberle. Goat: Wanye - Eberle scored 34 goals last year, not 32!
Star: Yak, shiny new toy
Goat: Belanger... As soon as he said in the offseason he wants to play in Montreal he became the goat.
January 18 2013, 09:32AM
Star: He who is called Eberle. Top-10 in scoring this year.
Goat: Eager. Who knows where his head is at after his legal issues? Too many dumb penalties will lead to a demotion to the pressbox in favour of Hordichuk.
January 18 2013, 09:34AM
Star, Nail Yakupov. Runner up, Justin Schultz.
Goat, it brings me great joy to enter the name Shawn Horcoff for the very last time. His last season in an Oiler jersey. Runner up, Devan Dubnyk.
The STAR will be Hall.
The Goat will be Tambo.
star: Eberle
goat: DSF
Where is Defying Sanity Forever? Not here to give us his wisdom?
Star: Eberle
Goat: Eager
January 18 2013, 09:50AM
Im so late to the party but I choo choose EBERQUEEEEEEEE as my star!
My goat on the other hand is more difficult but I will go with The Belanger Triangle.
January 18 2013, 09:52AM
Star: Gagner Goat: Belanger
January 18 2013, 10:02AM
Tom Poti, Tommy Salo, Tom Gilbert. Tom's are all-time goats.
January 18 2013, 10:02AM
Star: The NUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGGE
Goat: Ryan Jones - He doesnt fight anymore and his "scoring" is in decline
Thats is all.
GO OILERS!!!!!! Glug Glug Glug..... man Bud Light is so tasty!!!!
January 18 2013, 10:03AM
Theo = Tom. Tom Peckham is a goat
January 18 2013, 10:04AM
It appears I broke the Nation with my correct spelling of NUGE....Oops
Oh Wanye, please fix.
January 18 2013, 10:10AM
Star: RNH Goat: Corey Potter
January 18 2013, 10:11AM
Star: That battered and bleeding unstoppable force who, a fraction of a second after the most crucial game-winning puck crosses the line, follows through taking a defenceman, the goalie (hopefully Luongo), and the net itself, right through the end boards.....Taylor Hall
Goat: That self-annoited superstar Calder Trophy winner whose ego is just too big to remain cramped up in a dressing room that actually harbours superior talents....Nail Yakupov.
Star: Nuge. Honorable mention to Nick Schultz. His cool and steady defensive presence will do almost as much to improve this team as Nuge's 55 regular season points.
Goat: Jack Micheal Micheals : Having to call play by play over the radio for two Shultzes playing on the same defensive pairing will cause an early-season head implosion. Or he'll sound like he has a couple of mad man-crushes if he refers to them by their first names, a la Jim Hughson and the Canuck-Clones. Either way: Goat City.
January 18 2013, 10:27AM
Star: Special K - aka, Coach Krueger. He'll be the star behind so many shining points of light on this roster. Honorable mention goes to Petry for continuing his ascent from last year, and to J Schultz for showing us the AHL dominance he showed earlier this year was just the beginning.
Goat: Smid's knee, followed closely by Teddy 'Cheeseburger' Peckman, and any impatient fan expecting this team to win now.
January 18 2013, 10:35AM
STAR: Taylor "the beast" Hall
GOAT: Belanger "Triangle"

If the heel were lower I would have kept them
"Took reviewer advise. I wear 7.5 medium in open toe sandals generally. Ordered 8M and it fit like a glove! The pewter is a rich color looks dark brown more than black or silver. Very pretty, too high for my taste to wear to a fundraisor working on ones feet most of evening. If the heel were lower I would have kept them, clopping is for horses."

Very cute, a little wobbly
"I haven't worn these to an event yet, so I'm not sure how they'll hold up as far as comfort for an entire evening, but from just trying them on they feel comfortable (don't hurt my feet), but are a little wobbly- I hope I don't wipe out at my friend's wedding! Very pretty shoes though, sparkly but not flashy, not too high of a heel, etc."

Cute, but a bit small!
"I ordered these shoes for my upcoming wedding in Las Vegas to be my "something blue". They are even cuter in person that they look online! The blue is very vibrant & the sequins are sparkly/shimmery without being too much. My only problem with the shoe is that they are made smaller than I expected. I am usually a size 8, but something told me to go up a half size so I ordered an 8.5. I feel that they are a bit too tight still & a full size tha normal would have been right for me. These would be the perfect shoe if they fit properly, but due to the cost of shipping there & back for a new pair I may never wear these for my wedding."

Agreed. It does help to have a few kids maybe one will care enough to see they don't abuse you in the nursing home.
"There are still a father and a mother, even in a lab situation.
Its just the father has decided to be naught but a sperm donor. Some father."
You don't need a lab for this. There are plenty of sperm donors who made their "donation" the old-fashioned way.
What a horrible story. I'd like to feel some sympathy for this woman, but her narcissism and lack of remorse are too shocking.
Well, she probably enjoyed her consequence free fornication for 24 or more years though...
"you have received your reward"
I saw a lot of double posts today. I think they are having a glitch. I'm taking care to hit the button once.
Sadly, she doesn't seem to have learned from this. On the other hand, perhaps she is still simply trying to rationalize it? Certainly, she has written a lot of hollow words trying to do so.
It is obvious this is still all about herself and she is still seeking redemption within the boundaries of her secular, empty world. She won't find it, of course.
What she needs is Jesus and His forgiveness and love - not more navel-gazing and Liberally approved dead-ends. Only He can set her free from her prison of anguish and guilt.
Personally I'm more disgusted that anyone would publish this selfish diatribe than with her. I have compassion for her for the fact that she can't get out of her current deluded state without first facing the reality of her actions which is going to be a really cold hard truth for her.
The mere fact that it will be so hard may be what's preventing her from taking that step but there is no way around it. She can't get to a place where she feels right with the world without first facing the ugliness of her actions. Clarity of mind isn't selective. When you achieve it you see everything.
But if she and some publisher thinks it's worth publishing for the world to see then they've asked for the feedback. Perhaps you think she needs some more pretty lies so she can keep avoiding the truth and keep on wandering around wondering why she's never happy. I don't call that compassion.
Agreed, except that I don't really feel compassion for her. She doesn't regret what she did, and would advise others to do the same thing.
I understand.
I knew this was UK Daily Mail just by the headline. This newspaper prints lot of the non-PC stuff the US press ignores. They are the largest on-line newspaper these days...so I have read. They expose the Muslim invasion of UK and their bad behavior (rape etc) with native white women
You have millions of Americans going to the Daily Mail website rather than the POS NY Times
She killed a baby.
She doesn't deserve any slack.
What do you mean "fail" and why do you reference husbands and fathers without referencing wives and mothers?
It's just one way to look at it. Ultimately anyone who is swayed to abort their own child by it is still responsible for their own decision as she is for hers. That's why I'm more bothered by it being published than the fact that she is in a place where she is stuck because the way forward means pain. Everyone is stuck behind something at one time or another. The article is a public affirmation of her not finding her way yet. The publisher thought that was a good thing.
OH MY GOSH!! She did NOT "murder" a "batch of cells". She murdered a precious PERSON, a human being whom she was responsible for, and who had an absolute right to live.
I really can't buy this that they were victims here. They were active participants. They wanted to believe the lies. How else can anyone actually buy the lie that "it's not a person" and "it's just a mass of cells" when FOREVER other groups and churches that existed well before Roe V Wade were also getting their message out that 1) what else could it be but human life and 2) if you see these pictures you'll see it's not just a mass of cells.
Same pro-life group work went on in the UK as well.
Eve bought the distorted lie of Satan and that did not absolve her that first bite when she blamed her choice on the snake "the serpent beguiled me and I ate". She wanted to believe that lie. Didn't save Adam either "the woman you gave me ..."
The liars are guilty, and those that want to and believe the lie are guilty. I just do not believe all these women are innocent victims. The bottom line is they did not want a baby so they understood the procedure "gets rid" of the baby. Rationalization fails. They all knew I don't want a baby (person), and I want to believe the rationalization and try to convince myself at a certain stage it's not a person yet. Sorry. This is why they are messed up still today. They are still trying to believe the lie. But the fact they still want to believe the lie means they still don't repent of what they've done. They know in their hearts what they did. It conflicts with the rationalization because they know the rationalization they tried to believe all this time, is not a sufficient lie to cover the truth.
I feel sorry for them. I will not declare them victims in the sense they escape responsibility for their actions. They are sinners preyed upon by other sinners, in this particular case. It is a sad situation all around and I do hope they can get some peace by acknowledging the truth of what they did to God, and asking forgiveness for it.
Why is it that men are only spoken of in terms of responsibilities rather than rights?
The "danger" of feminism has already been realized in law: every man is barred by law from legally protecting his own children between conception and birth.
The best way to answer the question:....... Should I have been a teen mother, is by asking myself how I would advise a young girl in a similar situation.......... If my .... 17-year-old god-daughter asked what she should do,......" I Would Advise Her To Have An Abortion."
The Daily Mail is a great paper. They successfully show this woman at what we hope here is a midpoint: remorse for the bad consequences for herself, but not yet aware of God. Even the Catholic Church accepts remorse for bad consequences as sufficient remorse (in the confessional).
The article is all fluff.....for she states she would advise her own 17 yr. old god-daughter to abort if she became pregnant.
Good thing her mother didn't think the same way....
""It would be easy to feel sorry for myself, to reproach myself for my decision to abort the baby I was carrying at 18 or to desperately chase the dream of motherhood at the age of 42.
Instead, I have decided to accept my situation with grace its a hell of a lot cheaper than five rounds of IVF.""
She truly doesn't understand the purpose of life!
Why shouldn't there be? Despite her whinning she would advise her own god-daughter to abort at 17. The woman has learned nothing at all despite her feelings she cannot have children...there is no guilt there nor shame...just whinning.
That's false. The primary proponents of abortion are the women who have them.
Most are done over the objections of the baby' father.
I doubt it...she writes if her god-daughter got pregnant she would advise her to abort the baby. That pretty much is what a young woman reading this article is going to take from it IMO. ......By her stating that everything else she says goes down the tubes....pun intended.
I feel deeply sorry for this woman. She is still in complete denial and is struggling to continue rationalizing the murder of her baby. The article screams it.
But the truth she knows down deep is trying to come out, that she did an evil act. I hope she can eventually admit her guilt and beg God's forgiveness for her actions.
Culture is important. IMHO, a 5 year old knows that killing an unborn baby is murder. I still have great sympathy for woman like this because they are victims of a massive active deception that works 24/7 to brainwash impressionable young women that abortion is not murder.
Yes, she is 100% responsible and will be held to account for killing her baby. But I still feel deeply sorry for her and I understand that she was heavily enabled and still is, by this massive evil propaganda campaign.
I pray she repents of her sin and my God have mercy on her.
No, it's not! The shame would be not having enough of a conscience and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit to NOT struggle.
We are all there. We all have been there. We all will be there again.
It's when we get to that place that we throw ourselves on God's grace and mercy be because only He can effect that work in our hearts and souls that needs to be done. None of us are capable of it in and of ourselves.
That's why Scripture says we need to die to self. The sin nature is beyond reforming.
Take it to God. The kind of honesty engaged in when you do that is very powerful.
Philippians 3:12-14 12 Not that I have already obtained all this, or have already been made perfect, but I press on to take hold of that for which Christ Jesus took hold of me. 13 Brothers, I do not consider myself yet to have taken hold of it. But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus.
I agree with you. Down deep she knows she did evil and it is killing her. Outwardly, she is clinging hard to all of the excuses and support that the abortion propaganda machine has to offer.
Imagine her guilt as the sea and the aportion propaganda machine as a life preserver. She is clinging hard to struggle not to admit to herself that she murdered her child, and as long as people keep throwing her life preservers, she will keep clinging on to them.
Evil is the abortion industry and its affect.
I hope and pray she is willing to let go of that life preserver and repent of her sin killing her child. You can see the struggle going on inside her and it is killing her. She can't see it. She manifests it as just wanting another child. That is her mechanism to "erase" the abortion, but she would find a new child would not erase it. A new child would just move the bar to some other need to keep in denial about the evil she chose.
I feel really sorry for this woman. She is going to suffer, and rightly so.
Funny how that works, huh?
Agreed. This article was published in the "Femail" section, and a quick glance at the home page of "Femail" makes that quite clear.
In Syracuse, NY, there's a bill board along the interstate that says, *Abortion increase the risk of breast cancer*.
I have no idea who put it up but thank God for them.
Sad to read this.
IIRC, there are opportunities to adopt girls from the PRC.
And yet someone who was also killed once said, "Forgive them Father, they know not what they do".
Maybe just a little slack is called for, but she is going to have to do her part to receive God's grace.
That absolutely infuriated me, until I realized she is still in denial. The longer she is, the harder this is going to hit her when (if) she finally admits to herself the evil of her abortion. But yes, I was stunned she said that. I was so sure she was going to say she would NOT recommend abortion to her god-daughter, so I was immensely disappointed to read that. Crushing.
Completely missing from this article is the possibility that her abortion is the cause for her subsequent infertility.
"Men not wanting to pay child support are the primary proponents of abortion"
"That's false. The primary proponents of abortion are the women who have them.
Most are done over the objections of the baby' father."
I meant "of the men who want the mother to have an abortion," the main reason is so they don't have to pay child support.
Um.. I wouldn't try to argue nursing home statistics as part of the career woman feminism. Most are simply folks who have outlived their husbands. Not folks who never married.
"I thought the same thing. She never did get that she killed a human being and her life is still all about her emotional comfort."
Let her get pregnant just once and carry it to term. Then she will get it!
I remember what Darth Sideous said in "Return of the Jedi"
"Young fool... Only now, at the end, do you understand... "
I can think of another quote that might fit a circumstance like that. "It was the best of times, it was the worst of times." I'm sure it would bring it home for her and with some strength and some support she might be able to take that pain and transform it into a real awakening.
Thank you for sharing that.Gives me hope.Never has the truth been so hidden or maligned,all to the detriment of women.
Even my adamantly pro-life, anti-abortion daughter didn't realize that. Her initial reaction was that people claim so much causes cancer, how can they know.
I explained the physiological changes that occur in the body during pregnancy and how when not finished with the completion of a full term pregnancy and resultant lactation, can leave those cells unstable and susceptible to mutation that results in cancer.
Another very well kept secret is that breastfeeding significantly LOWERS the breast cancer risk. The more and longer you nurse, the better the protection.
That is why I said there is a train coming down the track...Of course the Feminism crowd is not there yet, but I can see it coming down the track. The stats of people living in nursing homes will change as this career bunch begins to unravel.
No matter how much they regret it, or even repent, I have a hard time feeling too sorry for a woman who killed her own child.
So glad you are able to share your knowledge with the next generation who will tell friends.And I encourage all women, especially my daughters, to breast feed for many reasons and the one stated is a big one.
And when will the medical establsihment share that the Pill is toxic and increases the chance of cancer?And that the rise in the number of cases of breast cancer seems to match the increase use of the pill? Shhh!!!!!The worst thing is to have a baby......
"And our culture is encouraging the fertile young women not to marry, but to sell their eggs."
Our culture teaches the fertile young women that if they can find a guy dumb enough to impregnate them it is probably the only way they'll have children and the guy is on the hook for "child support" (read: Mommy's rent) for the next 18-24 years. Unfortunately the guys saw what was happening around them and many of them see to it they won't be the "sugar daddy" (or their daddy, living in squalor while their mother bleeds him dry). Our women today are reaping what they've sown, and watching foreigners fill this country in the place of the children they'll never have.
Husbands, boyfriends, fathers are USUALLY the ones demanding "their" women have abortions in the first place. It is rarely entirely the woman's idea. There was/is a lot of pressure placed on women who are pregnant "inconveniently". Many women would not have made the choice to abort had the father of the child shared the responsibility for the baby they created. So, yes, husbands, fathers, men DO fail - women don't get pregnant by themselves! Condemning the abortive mother while letting the man responsible for the pregnancy off, is hypocrisy. For abortion to become UNTHINKABLE in our lifetime, the truth about it MUST be faced - all aspects.
Amen! She said more than a few times that she was in denial. Most post-abortive women do go through sometimes decades of denial in order to cope with what, deep in their hearts, they KNOW what they did. The truth can only be suppressed for so long and it is not unusual for women to exhibit symptoms of mental duress that comes out through drug addiction, alcoholism, sexual promiscuity, child abuse and other self-destrcutive behaviors as types of "coping" mechanisms. It is ONLY by confronting the truth, forgiving others and yourself and knowing that Christ forgives all those who genuinely confess their sin to him, that real freedom from guilt can occur. It is a process and there are many Pregnancy Help Centers and Project Rachael groups that help women through it.
Very true, the strongest supporters of legalized abortion, are not women, it is young single men. Every single poll or study done on the topic has shown this.
They want the exit so they don't wind up with a lifetime of responsibility for their actions.
Plenty of blame to go around on abortions. A lot of them are pushed by boyfriends, husbands, and parents, especially when the mom is scared.

A kidney transplant is a surgical procedure performed to implant a healthy kidney from another person. The kidney may come from a deceased organ donor or from a living donor. Family members or individuals who are unrelated but make a good match may be able to donate one of their kidneys. This type of transplant is called a living transplant. Individuals who donate a kidney can live healthy lives with the remaining kidney.
A person receiving a transplant usually receives only one kidney, but, in rare situations, he or she may receive two kidneys from a deceased donor. In most cases, the diseased kidneys are left in place during the transplant procedure. The transplanted kidney is implanted in the lower abdomen on the front side of the body.
A kidney transplant is recommended for children who have serious kidney dysfunction and will not be able to live without dialysis or a transplant. Some of the kidney diseases in children for which transplants are done include the following. However, not all cases of the following diseases require kidney transplantation. Always consult your child's doctor for a diagnosis:
Birth defects and heredity diseases (most common causes of kidney failure in children from birth to age 4)
Hereditary diseases, nephrotic syndrome, and systemic diseases (most common cause of kidney failure in children between ages 5 and 15)
Diseases that affect the glomeruli (most common cause of kidney failure in children between ages 15 and 19)
Visit the United Network for Organ Sharing (UNOS) website for statistics of patients awaiting a kidney transplant, and the number of patients who underwent a transplant this year.
The majority of kidneys that are transplanted come from deceased organ donors. Organ donors are adults or children who have become critically ill and are pronounced dead because their brain or their heart has stopped functioning permanently. If the donor is an adult, he or she may have agreed to be an organ donor before becoming ill. The family of the deceased person needs to agree to donate the person's organs. Donors can come from any part of the United States. This type of transplant is called a deceased donor transplant.
A child receiving a transplant usually receives only one kidney, but, in rare situations, he or she may receive two kidneys from a cadaveric (deceased) donor. Some experimentation with splitting one kidney for two recipients is underway. Family members or individuals who are unrelated but make a good match may also be able to donate one of their kidneys. This type of transplant is called a living transplant (living donor). Individuals who donate a kidney can live healthy lives with the kidney that remains. A child older than two years can generally receive an adult kidney, as there is usually enough space in the belly for the new kidney to fit.
UNOS is responsible for transplant organ distribution in the United States. UNOS oversees the allocation of many different types of transplants, including kidney, liver, pancreas, heart, lung, cornea, bone, and skin.
UNOS receives data from hospitals and medical centers throughout the country regarding adults and children who need organ transplants. The medical transplant team that currently follows your child is responsible for sending your child's data to UNOS and updating them as your child's condition changes.
As of December, 2014, the newly revised kidney allocation system (KAS) has been in place. This new system was designed to improve transplant opportunities for all candidates giving better access to patients who often wait longer due to blood type or other reasons. If you were already on a waiting list before the implementation of the new KAS, you will not lose your place in line. Talk to your health care provider about the new KAS guidelines.
When a donor organ becomes available, a computer searches all the people on the waiting list for a kidney and sets aside those who are not good matches for the available kidney. A new list is made from the remaining candidates. The person at the top of the specialized list is considered for the transplant. If he or she is not a good candidate, for whatever reason, the next person is considered, and so forth. Some reasons that people lower on the list might be considered before a person at the top include the size of the donor organ and the geographic distance between the donor and the recipient.
An extensive evaluation must be completed before your child can be placed on the transplant list. Testing includes:
Blood tests
Diagnostic tests
Psychological and social evaluation of the child (if old enough) and the family
Tests are done to gather information that will help determine how urgent it is that your child is placed on the transplant list, as well as ensure the child receives a donor organ that is a good match. These tests include those to analyze the general health of the body, including the child's heart, lung, and kidney function, the child's nutritional status, and the presence of infection. Blood tests will help improve the chances that the donor organ will not be rejected. These tests may include:
Blood chemistries. These may include serum creatinine, electrolytes (such as sodium and potassium), cholesterol, and liver function tests.
Clotting studies, such as prothrombin time (PT) and partial thromboplastin time (PTT). Tests that measure the time it takes for blood to clot.
Other blood tests will help improve the chances that the donor organ will not be rejected. They may include:
Your child's blood type. Each person has a specific blood type: type A+, A-, B+, B-, AB+. AB-, O+, or O-. When receiving a transfusion, the blood received must be a compatible type with your child's own, or an allergic reaction will occur. The same allergic reaction will occur if the blood contained within a donor organ enters your child's body during a transplant. Allergic reactions can be avoided by matching the blood types of your child and the donor.
Human leukocyte antigens (HLA) and panel reactive antibody (PRA). These tests help determine the likelihood of success of an organ transplant by checking for antibodies in your child's blood. Antibodies are made by the body's immune system in reaction to a foreign substance, such as a blood transfusion or a virus. Antibodies in the bloodstream will try to attack transplanted organs. Therefore, children who receive a transplant will take medications that decrease this immune response. The higher your child's PRA, the more likely that an organ will be rejected.
Kidney, liver, and other vital organ function tests
Viral studies. These tests determine if your child has antibodies to viruses that may increase the likelihood of rejecting the donor organ, such as cytomegalovirus (CMV). Many other infectious diseases are also tested for, including HIV and hepatitis.
The diagnostic tests that are performed are extensive, but necessary to understand the complete medical status of your child. The following are some of the other tests that may be performed, although many of the tests are decided on an individual basis:
Renal ultrasound. A noninvasive test in which a transducer that produces sound waves which bounce off the kidney is passed over the kidney, transmitting a picture of the organ on a video screen. The test is used to determine the size and shape of the kidney, and to detect a mass, kidney stone, cyst, or other obstruction or abnormality.
Kidney biopsy. A procedure in which tissue samples are removed (with a needle or during surgery) from the kidney for examination under a microscope.
Intravenous pyelogram (IVP). A series of X-rays of the kidney, ureters, and bladder with the injection of a contrast dye into the vein to detect tumors, abnormalities, kidney stones, or any obstructions, and to assess renal blood flow.
The transplant team will consider all information from interviews, your child's medical history, physical examination, and diagnostic tests in determining whether your child can be a candidate for kidney transplantation. After the evaluation and your child has been accepted to have a kidney transplant, your child will be placed on the UNOS list.
The group of specialists involved in the care of children who are undergoing a transplant procedure is often referred to as the "transplant team." Each individual works together to provide the best chance for a successful transplant. The kidney transplant team consists of:
Transplant surgeons. Doctors who specialize in transplantation and who will be performing the surgery. The transplant surgeons coordinate all team members. They follow your child before the transplant and continue to follow your child after the transplant and after discharge from the hospital.
Nephrologists. Doctors who specialize in disorders of the kidneys. Nephrologists will help manage your child before and after the surgery.
Urologists. Doctors who specialize in diagnosis and treatment of disorders of the genitourinary tract.
Transplant nurse coordinator. A nurse who organizes all aspects of care provided to your child before and after the transplant. The nurse coordinator will provide patient education and coordinate the diagnostic testing and follow-up care.
Social workers. Professionals who will provide support to your family and help your family deal with many issues that may arise, including lodging and transportation, finances, and legal issues. They can also help coordinate alternative means for school, so that your child does not get behind.
Dietitians. Professionals who will help your child meet his or her nutritional needs before and after the transplant. They will work closely with you and your family.
Physical therapists. Professionals who will help your child become strong and independent with movement and endurance after the transplantation.
Pastoral care. Chaplains who provide spiritual care and support.
Other team members. Several other team members will evaluate your child before transplantation and provide follow-up care, as needed. These include, but are not limited to, the following:
Infectious disease specialists
Respiratory therapists
Lab technicians
Child life specialists
There is no definite answer to this question. If you have a compatible and healthy living donor, you may be able to get a transplant within a few weeks or months. If no living-related donor is available, it may take months or years on the waiting list before a suitable donor organ is available. During this time, your child will receive close follow-up with his or her doctors and the transplant team. Various support groups are also available to assist you during this waiting time.
Each transplant team has their own specific guidelines regarding waiting on the transplant list and being notified when a donor organ is available. In most instances, you will be notified by phone or pager that an organ is available. You will be told to come to the hospital immediately so your child can be prepared for the transplant.
Once an organ becomes available to your child, you and your child will be immediately called to the hospital. This call can occur at any time, so you should always be prepared to go to the hospital, if needed. Once at the hospital, the child will have some more final blood work and tests to confirm the match of the organ.
The child will then go to the operating room. The transplant surgery may require several hours, but will vary greatly depending on each individual case. During the surgery, a member of the transplant team will keep you informed on the progress of the transplant.
After the surgery, your child will go to the intensive care unit (ICU) to be monitored closely. The length of time your child will spend in the ICU will vary based on your child's unique condition. After your child is stable, he or she will be sent to the special unit in the hospital that cares for kidney transplant patients. Your child will continue to be monitored closely. You will be educated on all aspects of caring for your child during this time. This will include information about medications, activity, follow-up, diet, and any other specific instructions from your child's transplant team.
Rejection is a normal reaction of the body to foreign tissue. When a new kidney is placed in a person's body, the body sees the transplanted organ as a threat and tries to attack it. The immune system makes antibodies to try to kill the new organ, not realizing that the transplanted kidney is beneficial. To allow the organ to successfully live in a new body, medications must be given to trick the immune system into accepting the transplant and not thinking it is a foreign object.
The following are the most common signs and symptoms of rejection. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
Tenderness over the kidney
Elevated blood creatinine level
High blood pressure
Your transplant team will instruct you on who to call immediately if any of these symptoms occur.
Medications must be given for the rest of the child's life to fight rejection. Each child is unique, and the transplant team has preferences for different medications. Some of the antirejection medications most commonly used include the following:
Mycophenolate mofetil
Antithymocyte Ig (ATGAM)
New antirejection medications are continually being approved. Doctors tailor drug regimes to meet the needs of each individual child. The doses of these medications may change frequently as your child's response to them changes. Because antirejection medications affect the immune system, children who receive a transplant will be at higher risk for infections. A balance must be maintained between preventing rejection and making your child very susceptible to infection. Blood tests to measure the amount of medication in the body are done periodically to make sure your child does not get too much or too little of the medications. White blood cells are also an important indicator of how much medication your child needs.
This risk of infection is especially great in the first few months because higher doses of antirejection medications are given during this time. Your child will most likely need to take medications to prevent other infections from occurring. Some of the infections your child will be especially susceptible to include oral yeast infection (thrush), herpes, and respiratory viruses.
Living with a transplant is a lifelong process. Medications must be given that trick the immune system so it will not attack the transplanted organ. Other medications must be given to prevent side effects of the antirejection medications, such as infection. Frequent visits to and contact with the transplant team are essential. Knowing the signs of organ rejection (and watching for them on a daily basis) is critical. When the child becomes old enough, he or she will need to learn about antirejection medications (what they do and the signs of rejection), so he or she can eventually care for himself or herself independently.
Every child is unique and every transplant is different. Results continually improve as doctors and scientists learn more about how the body deals with transplanted organs and search for ways to improve transplantation.

Double the fun: Peter Schiff versus Occupy Wall Street, round two
posted at 3:25 pm on October 27, 2011 by Allahpundit
Yesterday's crowd-pleaser from MRC TV was just an appetizer. Here's the main course via Reason — almost 19 minutes of Schiff taking on all comers at Zuccotti Park like some sort of Austrian-school ninja. Watch for the part where he breaks out the rhetorical nunchucks against regulation on grounds that everyone wants to pay lower prices for goods and is duly informed by a guy in a Guy Fawkes mask and keffiyeh that … no, not everyone does. There's your "Obama 2012" campaign slogan, I guess.
Elsewhere in the park, the revolution might not be televised but apparently it will be catered. With one caveat: You only get to eat if you're doing something productive for the cause, like drumming 15 hours a day. You see, the people's mess hall doesn't have time for … freeloaders.
The Occupy Wall Street volunteer kitchen staff launched a "counter" revolution yesterday — because they're angry about working 18-hour days to provide food for "professional homeless" people and ex-cons masquerading as protesters.
For three days beginning tomorrow, the cooks will serve only brown rice and other spartan grub instead of the usual menu of organic chicken and vegetables, spaghetti bolognese, and roasted beet and sheep's-milk-cheese salad.
They will also provide directions to local soup kitchens for the vagrants, criminals and other freeloaders who have been descending on Zuccotti Park in increasing numbers every day…
Today, a limited menu of sandwiches, chips and some hot food will be doled out — so legitimate protesters will have a day to make arrangements for more upscale weekend meals.
In other words, a guy with no job who's been sleeping in the park for a month and prone to saying things like "power to the people" is entitled to feast on sheep's-milk-cheese salad, but a guy with no job who's been sleeping in the park for years and prone to saying things like "I'm hungry" has to make do with whatever the local soup kitchen is shoveling. Some occupiers really are more equal than others.
Be sure to read to the end of the Post's article for details on the confrontation between OWS's self-appointed security team and the "trouble-prone southwest section of Zuccotti Park," which is troublesome enough that some women have reportedly abandoned the protest in fear for their own safety. (No one knows how bad it is inside because there's an informal "stop snitching" policy that's intimidating people into not reporting crimes.) Zuccotti Park isn't that big so some of this must be going on right under the NYPD's nose, yet for political reasons, Bloomberg and the landlord are apparently content to let the movement's own "security volunteers" handle it rather than risk a confrontation by intervening themselves. Disgraceful, and needless to say, the outrage it would inspire if the protesters' politics were different would be apocalyptic. As it is, if someone does get seriously hurt in there, they should sue every city official and agency in sight — Bloomberg, Ray Kelly, straight down the line. They might not win but the shame alone will be worth it.

UNC director earns award for work in philosophy
The American Society of Quality will present the Gryna Award for innovative contributions and achievements in quality to John Latham, director of the Monfort Institute at the University of Northern Colorado, at its annual World Conference in May in Indianapolis for his paper, "Management System Design for Sustainable Excellence: Framework, Practices and Considerations." The article appeared in Quality Management Journal Vol. 19, No. 2.
The award is given for the paper that has made the largest contribution to the extension of understanding and knowledge of the philosophy, principles or methods of quality management during the past year, according to a news release.
"This is a different approach to improving organizational performance," Latham said in the release. "Other approaches focus on satisfying one or two key stakeholders and incrementally improving pieces and parts of the existing system. This method focuses on designing a new system that creates value for six stakeholder groups: customers, employees, investors, suppliers and partners, society and the natural environment.
"Successful leaders in the future will have to become architects of enduring organization by designing systems that create sustainable results for multiple stakeholders."
Get ready for St. Patty's parade, party downtown
The Downtown Development Authority will conduct its second "Blarney on the Block" St. Patrick's Day celebration at 2 p.m. Saturday in Greeley's 9th Street Plaza.
Afternoon festivities include a two-block parade, featuring the Fort Collins Pipe Band, and many more. Residents also are invited to join in the parade.
The parade will start at 2:30 p.m. on the 8th Street Plaza in front of Mariposa Plants & Flowers and circle around the block via 9th Avenue, ending on the 9th Street Plaza, according to a news release.
The Fort Collins Pipe and Drum Band, and Greeley's own Irish band, the Stubby Shillelaghs, will perform live in this special Go-Cup common drinking district event.
Kids can enter a potato spoon race, a cake walk and the rubber ducky dunk.
Officials promise plenty of prizes, contests and games. The Blarney Stone, compliments of Greeley Monument Works, will be available for kissing beginning Monday on the 9th Street Plaza, as well.
Call (970) 356-6775 or email email@example.com for more information.
Fat Albert's celebrates 31st anniversary with pies, green beer

Commissioners thank 300 Weld County businesses
Roughly 300 businesses in Weld County shou ld be getting their Thank-You letter in the mail from the Board of Weld County Commissioners. The commissioners for the fourth year have sent the letters to thank owners for locating and maintaining their business in Weld County, according to a news release.
"Whether it is a large corporation or a small business, when companies succeed our economy succeeds, our towns succeed and our county succeeds. There is a beneficial ripple effect felt throughout our county when businesses thrive," Commisioner Chairman Bill Garcia said in the release.
"Despite a rough year economically, Weld County was one of the few Colorado counties to see job growth in 2012," the letter states. Services provided by Upstate Colorado and the Northeast East Central Colorado Small Business Development Centers are also highlighted in the letter and serve as a reminder that assistance to the business community is readily available in Weld County.
The 2013 letter was sent to businesses located in Weld County that employ 25 or more people.

Christmas / Seasonal has finally gone 90% off at most Target stores today.
I have been checking everyday since Sunday at my 2 local Northern California stores.
In addition to the usual decorations, wrap etc. there are a few "hidden" places you may be able to find amazing deals.
Scan items at the price checker to be sure only items that were coded as seasonal will be 90% off
Goldfish Cocoa adventures .21 cents - the pack has a goldfish wearing a blue beanie and there are snowflakes on the pack.
Captain Crunch Christmas Crunch cereal- note only ringing up 50% but you could probably get the cashier to mark to 90% as with all other holiday - YMMV
Keebler / Oreo holiday packs of cookies
Starbucks, Market Pantry Coffee - unlikely but look for the Red Holiday packs
Candy - items with holiday packaging left in the regular section like M and M bags will be 90%. In the holiday section there are Wonka storybooks with Fun Dip and Sweet Tarts - the outside is holiday but the inside is generic so they could be good for Valentine's.
Jewelry / clothing
Still signed 50% off at my local store but scanning at 90% off LOTS LEFT
Holiday themed earring sets - .50 cents
Red, Silver and Green stretchy bracelets .69 cents
holiday pins .50 - .69
Scan items to be sure I found a Dora Christmas activity book for .39 cents but Frosty the Snowman was still full price at $9.98.
Reynolds wrap foil with snowflake packaging if you're lucky enough to find it
Toss pillows with a subtle snowflake design
Flannel Sheet sets with stocking or snowmen $1.99 for a set
check the register impulse buy sections for bagged lego sets some are 90% off so you'll want to scan them. I checked Atlantis and Toy Story with no luck but Police boat sets are at 90%. These have no "holiday" indicators on them but were part of the stocking stuffer display section..
Might Beanz - 3 packs also part of the stocking stuffers collections gut you may find them with the toys - star wars etc they don't look holiday so scan
Dollar Spot
The pink dot items were the holiday selection. The one item I found was ringing up INF Item not found and asking for a price at the register. The cashier and I agreed it should be .10 cents but this was Christmas cards so it was an easy argument.

The nation observed an anniversary today. It wasn't an anniversary of joy from say fifty years of marriage or twenty five years on the job. It was for the creation of the Amber Alert.
The California Highway Patrol joined law enforcement agencies around the country in observing National Amber Alert Awareness Day, which coincides with the anniversary of the child abduction that led to the creation of the system.
Dallas-Fort Worth area law enforcement and media representatives were moved to create the system in 1996 after the kidnapping and slaying of 9-year-old Amber Hagerman. Monday was the 18th anniversary of the child's abduction. The Amber Alert program has helped recover 679 abducted children since it's inception.

This is our last paper of 2013, so we are going to take a look back at what shaped our great city over the past year.
The traffic cameras disappeared from intersections around Mt. Juliet as the contract was voted not to be renewed by the City Commissioners.
Bryam Megan Ewers was arrested for attempting to hire a hitman to kill her ex-husband. The Wilson County Sheriff's Office used an undercover officer to pose as a hitman. She offered $5,000 to have him killed.
A EF-2 tornado touched down on the north side of Mt. Juliet, heavily damaging properties near the intersection of Lebanon Road and North Mt. Juliet Road. Most businesses opened back up within a few days, but some, like the Dollar General, have not returned.
The Board of Commissioners started the process to get an interstate exit at Central Pike and I-40. The BOC voted on a resolution saying they supported and appropriated funds to prepare an Interchange Access Request.
Former Tennessee Titan Erron Kinney was offered the Fire Chief position, and later accepted to become the first Fire Chief for the Fire Department of Mt. Juliet.
A meth lab was busted at 11 Cooks Rd. in Mt. Juliet. Carroll Johnson Cook, 49, was arrested for manufacturing meth and possession at the residence, and was also accused of selling the drug in Davidson County.
The first two liquor stores were approved in Mt. Juliet by the Board of Commissioners. Mt. Juliet Wine & Spirits, which is already open, and Providence Wine & Spirits, which is currently under construction.
Vice Mayor James Maness presented his "20/20 vision" for Mt. Juliet, and the projects he would like to see done or in process by the year 2020. Some of the projects were the Central Pike Exit on I-40, the widening of Old Lebanon Dirt Road to four lanes, the widening of South Mt. Juliet Road to Central Pike to five lanes, and the Eastern Connector from the Beckwith exit on I-40 to Lebanon Road.
Dr. Timothy Setterlund was named the new Wilson County Director of Schools. Setterlund was previously employed as the Assistant Superintendent of Memphis City/Shelby County Schools.
Mt. Juliet Youth Football found a new home, as it was worked out to have them move to Mundy Park. The football league had outgrown their home at Charlie Daniels Park, and needed more space.
Great Britain's Prince Harry visited Arlington National Cemetery, and placed a wreath at the grave of Mt. Juliet soldier, Michael L. Stansbery, Jr. Stansbery was killed on July 30, 2010 by an improvised explosive device while on patrol in Kandahar Province. The grave was chosen at random of the soldiers that had died in Iraq and Afghanistan.
Mt. Juliet Head Coach Roger Perry, who had led the Mt. Juliet Bear football team to back-to-back state semifinal appearances, stepped down as Head Coach. Perry underwent a quintuple heart by-pass in the spring. His son, Trey Perry took over as Head Coach, and Roger Perry returned to the sideline as Offensive Coordinator for the 2013 season.
Mt. Juliet cut the ribbon on Fire Station No. 1 to kick off the Fire Department of Mt. Juliet.
The Exchange Club of West Wilson County, American Legion Tyler Cates Post 281 and Vietnam Veterans Chapter 1004 held a Flags of Honor event at the corner of Division Street and N. Mt. Juliet Road. The corner was filled with flags purchased by people to honor Veterans.
Mt. Juliet Wine & Spirits opened their doors, becoming the first wine & spirits store located in Mt. Juliet.
5-year-old Ethan Page was tragically killed in an accident when he fell into the path of a truck on a relative's property.
The City remembered the 10th anniversary of Sgt. Jerry A. Mundy's death with a wreath laying ceremony at his memorial in Charlie Daniels Park. Mundy was killed along with Wilson County Sheriff's Deputy John Musice while in the line of duty trying to stop someone running from the police.
Lifestyle Communities, a high end urban living style community, announced they would be coming to Mt. Juliet. The property will be located between Jonathan's Grille and Deer Park Apartments, and will be a community that caters to young professionals in the 25-35 age range.
Ava's Splash Pad opened at Charlie Daniels Park. The park was created with donations and grants in honor of Ava Bright, who passed away tragically at the age of two after complications from a tonsillectomy.
Heavy rains caused area flooding which made several roads impassable in the area.
The Board of Commissioners voted to make an offer on the Joy Church Property on Charlie Daniels Parkway. The building will be used as a new police station, freeing up more room in the current building for City Hall offices. Joy Church has a new property near the corner of Benders Ferry Road and Lebanon Road.
Garr's Rental & Feed closed down after 35 years in business. Re-Move Training is now in the building.
Outdoors retailer Gander Mtn. submitted plans to the City for a possible location Providence Marketplace. It would be located next to Two Rivers Ford on Belinda Parkway.
Wilson County Schools decided to move the high schools away from block scheduling, and move to a 7-class schedule starting next year.
Jeremy Wayne Darnell was arrested in connection to the attempted abduction of a 14-year-old girl in Providence Marketplace in 2011. The girl was able to get away, but Darnell's identity was not known until recently.
A new school calendar was approved by the school board that would reduce the 2-week spring break to one. The school board said they may reduce fall break as well in future years to get more instruction days in before testing.
Governor Bill Haslam visited West Wilson Middle School to announce that Tennessee had the largest academic growth of any state this past year. It was the largest jump in the history of the test.
Joey Cooper was named the Director of WEMA, replacing John Jewell.
The first Mayor of Mt. Juliet N.C. Hibbett passed away at the age of 79.
Wilson Central High School won a Kelly Clarkson concert and $100,000 for State Farm's Celebrate My Drive contest. They got people to pledge to be safe drivers. Mt. Juliet won $25,000 in the contest.
A large subdivision, Nichols Vale, was approved on the north side of town. It will contain over 300 single family homes and over 50 townhomes, and have access points at Benton Douglas Parkway and Falkner Lane.

By CAROLYN WASHBURNUtah State University Extension Family and Consumer Science AgentWashington County
Emergency circumstances can create high amounts of stress for children. Whether it is a fire, flood, evacuation or earthquake, children need to know what to do and how to do it in order to minimize stress and anxiety.
It is important to first establish and practice home emergency plans. Early preparation will save fear, panic and possibly lives. Talk with your child about a preparedness plan. This plan should include evacuation routes and a meeting place.
Help your child prepare and store a 72-hour readiness kit so he or she knows where to access the kit if it becomes necessary. In addition to the necessary food items, consider including these items in an emergency kit for your child.
* Extra clothes and shoes (Store a sturdy pair of shoes under the bed for easy access.)
* Extra stockings
* Mittens, scarf, jacket
* A favorite toy, doll or stuffed animal
* Books and games
* Comfort food, hard candy, crackers, granola bars, dried fruit
* Bottled water
* Light stick or flashlight with spare batteries
* Whistle
* Paper with home address, phone number and parents' names
* $20 in small bills and coins
* Emergency contact number
* Toothbrush, toothpaste
* Comb, brush
* Small first-aid kit
* Space blanket
* Poncho
If we want our children to be successful during times of distress and emergencies, it is up to us to teach and prepare them. We can't prevent emergencies, but we can be prepared for them.
