A couple of years ago (November 2013) my mom, dad, and grandparents went to Israel for my mom's 50th birthday.
They had a tour guide there that my mom stayed in touch with. I knew they had a tour guide there, but I didn't think anything of it because that's pretty normal in Israel.
Come August 2014, my two siblings and I get a message from this random woman from Israel saying that my mom is a home wrecker and all this stuff about her. I thought this woman was just crazy, so I told my mom about her.
Turns out that this woman was the Israeli tour guide's SO (Significant Other), and my mom has had a physical and emotional affair with this guy.
My parents' marriage was already on the fritz, and I think this is the straw that broke the camel's back in my parents' relationship. I don't think my dad was happy about it, but he was not angry. My mom moved out of the house at the beginning of September 2014.
For the next few months after, I had assumed the whole thing with the tour guide was over because she was caught. Nope, not the case. My mom has continued to keep in contact with him and has gone to Israel a couple of times. My mom has stated that she goes to Israel because she "loves" it there, but I have a feeling that it's not so innocent.
My mom has expressed to both my sibling's and I that this guy is/was the "love of her life" and she can't help it but it's hard for her to "not talk to him", apparently. But this entire time my mom has expressed this to me, I've told her that I don't feel bad for her. That she knew this guy was in a relationship and is continuously in contact with him. And that she paints herself as the victim here.
Now, my mom is back in Israel for a couple of weeks for her 53rd birthday. She told my siblings and me that she had "lunch with her friend" (tour guide) and he SO found out and to just block her from everything. Apparently, this woman found some of my families' Facebook accounts and has been "sharing" their pictures and writing stuff about my mom.
Again, my mom is painting herself like she is so innocent while my older sister (25) is agreeing with my mom and feels so bad for her.
My younger brother (20) and I do not feel the same way. We both feel that my mom is not innocent and why should we treat her as such? She got herself into this position and now she is dragging her family into it.
Both my mom and sister feel that I am being unfairly harsh and think I'm being "cold-hearted". But I guess ever since this started back in August 2014, I've held a small grudge against my mom because I don't go to her apartment as often as I should (probably once a week).
Am I being unfairly cold about this whole situation?Jean HallidayOctober 27, 2016 at 8:12 pmPost count: 0
I am 67 and 27 years ago my husband left me for his secretary. He did not give me or his three sons any closure no explanation. Just stopped paying the mortgage. I struggled to bring them up as a lone parent. I have not seen him since. Over the years each of my sons sought him out. He never came to them, he preferred bringing his secretary's daughters up.
My oldest son left me at the same time aged 18 and although I have tried lots of times he does not want me. A bit like that Philomena film. He invited his dad to his wedding but not me. Meanwhile my middle son married and had children. Did not seek his father out and I thought everything was OK. Until one day he went looking for his older brother and instead of getting us together he fell out. They are united in the hate for me presumably. The younger one contacted his dad years ago but it did not progress. He fell out with me for a few years. But he is back in my life and I am seeing my grandchildren, only his children again. I know I am being used to dump them on me, but at least I see them.
The point I am making is that I actually do not know why my children have behaved like this. It hurts. Really hurts. What I would do is let her make her own mistakes and do not judge. As long as she is not asking you for anything. Live your life. But you never get these years back. 27 years have gone by with my older son and I expect he had told everyone another story instead of coming to me. I really devoted my life to bringing them up being a stay at home mom. X

Artist Francisco Guerrero graced the web this week with a series of Lord of the Rings illustrations that are, as The Mary Sue so aptly claims, part Disney, part Rankin Bass.
(Before I go any further: know that anyone heard singing "Where There's a Whip, There's a Way" will be punished.)
The Rankin Bass influence in the hobbits is evident:
while Legloas looks like the son of a Disney prince:
and Saruman's got a bit of Disney villian in him:
And don't you love the backgrounds? My favorite is Shelob's shadow behind Sam.
What I like about Francisco is that he really seems into the material. He's inspired by the movies – what artist wouldn't be? – but he's also read the books, and is obviously a sincere fan. Here's what he's got to say about his most recent illustration, which features Boromir:
"This character captivates you in book and film, especially at the end. With an air of nostalgia and pessimism, Boromir is a warrior stereotype who seeks the best for the kingdom of Gondor, his people. But like all men in Middle-Earth, he is corrupted by the ring's power.
"It is a scene of "The Fellowship of the Ring" where there is a key moment for Boromir, picking up the ring after Frodo lost it in the snowy mountains, saying 'It is a strange fate that we should suffer fear and doubt so much over so small a thing. Such a little thing'. Sean Bean had a hard time filming this scene since it was shot on top of a mountain and he is apparently afraid of heights (and helicopters). He couldn't stop thinking of the way back inside the helicopter. So, in the following scenes involving transportation by air, he decided to ride, walk or climb to the location. I guess that his fear was transmitted into the scene because it came out perfectly."
Below are the rest of the characters that Francisco's done so far. And when you're done enjoying these fun illustrations, why not head over to Francisco's blog to read more about each sketch?

Let's start with "innocent until proven guilty." Let's say you believe that Jameis Winston did nothing in the potential rape case, that no one interfered with it at all, and that his on-campus outburst was just immaturity. After all, if you arrive at FSU and lead them to a national title in your first year — and hell, you still haven't lost — then you're entitled to scream a few things in an open space now and again, right? (#College) Forget about the crab legs stuff too. (College athletes probably get tons of shit for free that's never reported.) So if you toss all that out, and assume it's a series of misunderstandings, then we're also assuming Jameis Winston is a good kid at heart. (He may well be.) Jimbo Fisher and his family may well love him. (They probably do. Without him, they likely don't have their national title.)
But Fisher is still a sanctimonious piece of shit. Here's why.
Start here. College football is as conspiracy-laden a sport as any on Earth, and literally every time College Gameday chooses an SEC location, Twitter and my iMessage erupt, but still, it's odd when the coach of the defending national champions is basically like, "Well, we get negative attention because ESPN has money in the SEC:"
Yep, they do have money in the SEC. The flip side is this, from Chris Fowler himself, the maestro of Gameday:
Everyone thinks there's a bias, sure. But when you've won a national title and represent a top-3 team in America, you need to keep the bias shit out of it.
I have this theory that there are basically three types of football coaches, at any level:
- Executors Who Could Care Less About The Media: You know these guys. They win, and they seem to do everything to the minute. They'd probably bench a star RB for being 23 seconds late to a film session. Bill Belichick is the pro high-water mark for this type, with Nick Saban probably being the college high-water mark. Routine and doing things the right way.
- Flashy, Gimmick Coaches: These are guys like Mike Leach, or even Art Briles — they run programs who put up a lot of points, and have a couple of really good stretches, but aren't necessarily consistent winners like the other coaches above.
- Nondescript or Bad: These are coaches who fall into the "other" bucket. They win games and get high-profile jobs, but eventually they fade from view. Think Will Muschamp or even a dude like Marty Schottenheimer — who had success, but never amazing success.
There are obviously coaches that go outside this mold; Pete Carroll seems to focus on execution (he's had good teams at both levels) and messes around with the media sometimes. My theory is not airtight.
Here's the thing with Fisher: he doesn't seem like an executor, per se. He was 12-2 in the year before Winston, but in the two years before that, FSU lost four games each time. In 2010, with Christian Ponder and E.J. Manuel on the roster — who would both go and start games in the NFL — they lost back-to-back games to NC State and UNC, both unranked at the time. He's not a flashy coach. He's not "other." I mean, he's won a title.
So what is he?
He comes off, honestly, as a guy that very consistently got lucky — he was around when Bowden was ready to go out (preventing a PSU situation or a situation akin to what's going to happen with Duke basketball), and then he landed one of the best frosh QBs to come along in years. Yes, he recruited Winston, and interestingly, his behavior with Winston is now helping him with other recruits:
He does come off, often, as more lucky than good. I'm not saying I could coach FSU to a title. I couldn't. Football is not a roll-the-balls out situation.
His consistent focus in interviews, though, is on "doing things the right way." He mentioned it again before the Notre Dame game, as cited by College Football Talk, and one of the comments reads like this:
So many leaders, in sports, in business and in politics shrink the most when they're supposed to show their mettle.
But we've all known for a long time now that it's about money.
It's not about doing it the right way, it's about winning. Winning equals money and other things will be and are swept aside and under the carpet in pursuit of money…
And not just in sports.
Agree. I think leadership really doesn't exist anymore. Being-good-at-what-matters-to-those-above-you replaced it. In Jimbo Fisher's case, that's winning football games.
OK, so here's how I can reconcile all these garbled thoughts:
- When you have a guy like a Saban or a Harbaugh or a Belichick, people will tolerate this kind of onward-focus-bullshit with the press, because their narrative is "Execution wins games, and you get execution from doing things the right way."
- When a guy like Fisher does it, it can seem sanctimonious and condescending, especially in light of investigations around his best player. (And yes, they did win a game with Winston out.)
Here's the other thing to remember about this discussion: they've won like, 27 games in a row. They haven't looked great this season, but they haven't lost. Alabama has. Oregon has. MSST has. TCU and Baylor have. FSU hasn't, and unless you believe Will Muschamp's last stand or Georgia Tech will take them down, they won't lose before the playoffs. 29 straight games. They need to win another 20 or so to tie the all-time record (not happening), but still, it's already tied for the 19th-longest streak ever. Impressive.
Point is: people don't like teams that win a lot, especially when they win in tight games where maybe the QB shoved a ref.
If you look back through any college/pro dynasty in any sport, even if they started out as fun and scoring lots of points/runs, eventually people started to want to see them lose. I loved those UNLV teams back when. When Duke finally beat them, that was awesome. I loved the 1990s Cowboys initially. When they started to fall apart, I was ecstatic. I loved the '99-'00 era Lakers. When they began to implode, I cheered passionately. That's life. Winners eventually become hated. It happens.
Maybe that's what I'm channeling with Fisher, but I can't get it out of my head that he probably knows more — about everything — then he lets on, but he stays this straight-and-narrow of lucky, drop the same soundbites, and support the questionable elements so long as the scoreboard is on your side.

I had never visited the nation's capital before, and was surprised to find how compact it is. From Annie's apartment on Fifth Street I could easily walk to the White House, or to the Supreme Court, the National Archives, the Smithsonian, the Washington Monument. Instead, I walked in circles, passing my wife's workplace three times without even recognizing it. She works at the Martin Luther King Jr. Public Library, where on MLK Day President Bush George Bush delivered a speech to a hand-picked audience. No one who works at the library, let alone the regular patrons, knew of George's impending visit. I was not invited, nor permitted to get within two blocks of the event. The entire neighborhood was crawling with cop cars and festooned with police tape. So even though our troops won't coming home from Iraq any time soon, yellow ribbons are everywhere in the District of Columbia.
So are reinforced concrete bollards, steel plate barriers, surveillance cameras, guard huts and security personnel. The Homeland Security Act has opened up a wealth of employment opportunities for just about anyone who can squeeze into a uniform and muster a menacing stare.
Still, I was pleasantly surprised to learn that most attractions in our nation's capital are open to the public and free of admission charge. For a tourist on a budget, or a foraging squirrel, the National Mall is hard to beat.
I made straight for the Lincoln Memorial because Abraham Lincoln is my idea of a great man. He penned some of the finest sentences ever put to paper—speeches and policy positions that have echoed down through the ages unto the very day I climbed the steps to pay my respects, only to find a mass of boisterous teens huddled at the Emancipator's marbled feet. The enclosed Memorial makes for an excellent echo chamber, and thus Abe's Gettysburg Address serves merely as a background for a cacophony of mindless cell phone chatter.
"Would you be-lieve I just spent two frickin' hours at the Holocaust Museum?" a young woman cried out in despair.
"You poor baby!" But my words of condolence fell on deaf ears, much as Abraham Lincoln's words fell on deaf ears at Gettysburg. Happily, he wrote them down on a piece of paper, and now they are inscribed on white marble walls inside a stately columned hall. Not than anyone has the time read nowadays—not even the sign that reads: QUIET: RESPECT PLEASE.
In the 1951 movie The Day The Earth Stood Still, Martian visitor Klaatu, played by Michael Rennie, was so impressed with the Lincoln Memorial that he briefly reconsidered his plan to exterminate us pesky earthlings before we could build more weapons and invent the cell phone—and thus disrupt the peace and quiet of the entire solar system. But then he got shot dead by some trigger happy goon with a gun, and that changed everything.

Doctors Recommend Artichoke Leaf Extract
Doctors around most Mediterranean countries have long recommended the use of Artichoke Leaf Extract. As a matter of fact, it is one of the most frequently recommended natural remedies around the Mediterranean. Artichoke Leaf Extract has long been thought to be able to deal with and handle a range of health conditions which can affect the liver. Cholesterol is only one of those conditions but it is thought that this natural extract can also improve prostate health.
It goes without saying that artichokes are delicious served hot or cold. One of the best ways to eat artichoke is when the vegetable is freshly steamed, and you need to focus on eating the fleshy part of the bottom of the leaf. This is where the active compound, cynarin, can be found.
Cynarin has long thought to have had beneficial properties but it was until 1979 when German scientists at the University of Freiburg in Germany, discovered that it could in fact lower LDL cholesterol levels and at the same time raise HDL cholesterol levels.
What Is Cynarin?
Cynarin is basically a plant chemical and it is also what gives artichokes their sweet bitter taste. It has recently been acredited with doing much more than that, and although more research is needed, it is known to lower both cholesterol and blood fats levels. Cynarin is not very different from another compound found in Milkthistle called silymarin.
Just like silymarin, cynarin can go on to improve liver function which means that the liver can manage levels of LDL cholesterol much more effectively. Cynarin differs slightly from silymarin as it is known to also lower triglycerides levels within the blood. For reasons not yet understood, silymarin may slightly elevate levels and should never be used as a stand alone treatment for fat or cholesterol problems.
Cynarin also have the ability to increase bile production which means it can influence the liver to dispel more harmful substances, and it is now thought it may make an effective treatment against fatty liver or a liver which has been affected by alcohol abuse.
Should I Eat Artichokes Or Take A Supplement?
It would be doubtful if you would be able to digest enough cynarin to make eating artichokes an effective treatment. Cynarin is more effective as an extract of artichoke, or alternatively as part of a cholesterol drug formula. Many commercial manufacturers are now taking a second look at artichokes and cynarin in particular. It is believed that this natural compound will make an effective remedy for those patients who cannot tolerate statins or blood fat lowering drugs.
The problem is that the molecule chain is very difficult to copy, and it is therefore better to turn to natural remedies such as Choleslo which will provide the correct amount of active ingredient to treat high cholesterol.
Prostate Disease and Choleslo
A lot has been written about statin drugs influence on prostate disease and PSA levels. Initial results from a recent study seem to indicate that both red yeast and artichoke can form an effective alliance against diseases which affect the prostate. Interestingly enough many men who suffer from elevated levels or LDL cholesterol, have an increased chance of contracting some form of prostate disease.
The link is not immediately obvious but is thought that elevated levels of liver enzymes can affect the prostate in a negative way. If this is true, it may also explain the link between a diet rich in red meat and prostate disease.
If, you do suffer from prostate disease and are taking the natural remedy of Saw Palmetto, you can safely use Choleslo as an add on treatment. The two natural remedies will not contraindicate. As a matter of fact, they may even compliment each other.
Artichokes also contain many other phytonutrients all of which form part of the extract formula, the functions of many are yet to be explored. However, it is widely recognized that all phytonutrients will help to reduce inflammation and support better digestion which is vital when it comes to lower cholesterol levels.

What would Keener be like today?
By Scott Westerman – email@example.com
I spent the morning with WKNR's Bob Green today. He is the most revered and most humble of the legendary Keener Key Men. And as the years go by, he's still surprised at how what he calls "a fleeting moment" still resonates with so many of us.
I was in Houston with MSU and was honored to be with my radio mentor. He took me through the city's neighborhoods, remarking how the town is much more heterogeneous in both geography and demography than most realize. In what we boomers like to call "late middle age", Bob looks great and is as sharp as ever.
We walked through the Galleria shopping center, along what is Houston's equivalent of Woodward Avenue, to visit the Apple store. This is the epicenter of the devices that are forever changing the paradigm of how we consume audio entertainment.
It was the beginning of a conversation about what we would do if we were both 25 and wanted to spread the Keener magic today.
Bob told me a story from the height of WKNR's popularity, when he would get request line calls from fans on the East Side, who had no way of hearing Keener's deficient night time broadcast signal.
These were people who couldn't even hear the Keener sound, but identified with the Keener brand.
I write often about the importance of a personal brand, how the brand we build for ourselves is something we lease, for a time, to the companies we associate with. I warn that what you say on Facebook, or write in a blog comment can come back to haunt you years later, and how it's the nuances… the polish you put into your personal brand that will set you above the rest.
Bob's favorite definition of Brand is: "a promise, wrapped up in an experience."
I think that's perfect.
Many of those Keener fans in Roseville, had learned about the promise about this great radio station from their friends. They may have never heard Keener, but they might have seen the Keener brand in action on remote at Cobo Hall, or when Bob and his fellow Key Men came to their high school for a record hop.
Those events were part and parcel of the Keener brand.
So what would Keener be like today?
It might or might not be expressed on a broadcast transmitter. But it would definitely have a website with an audio stream.
It would have a mobile app that went well beyond pressing a button to hear music. All the aural features that the jocks used to promote over the air… concert info, community announcements, contests and news would be part of the functionality on Blackberries, iPhones, Droids and iPads.
The record hops and personal appearances would still happen. Bob emphasizes that the human interaction was a crucial component of the Keener brand. But there might also be virtual appearances. Scott Regen's Motown Monday would be something you could experience at your laptop, in real time or on demand, even if you couldn't get tickets to the liver Roostertail event.
Instead of calling in requests, the Keener application would have realtime statistics on what the most popular tunes are, not just this week, but in the last hour. If you wanted to "testify what your love has done for you," you would do it in the Keener chat room, or via Skype video message which would run over Parliament's instrumental track. Bob still thinks that there should be request lines. He told me that the best part about broadcasting was getting instant feedback from the listener, that visceral sense for what was working and what wasn't. The new Keener would have to have a similar mechanism, but in addition to hearing the nuances of the voice on the other end of the telephone line, the Jocks would have to decipher emotions in 140 character Twitter chunks.
Jock interviews with the artists wouldn't require the star to be in Detroit and would be two way video, with a Twitter stream crawling below where Keener fans could ask real time questions.
The DJs would still be the key to the Keener brand, only in the new world, WKNR would aggregate their personal brands, not interfere with them. Bob Green's concept of "intelligent flexibility" would still rule. You could link to Scott Regen's personal site and talk with him directly about the Beatles and perhaps take a virtual yoga class there.
All Keener Key People (not just men anymore) would have iPhones with UStream capability to be able to go live in an instant from anywhere, anytime. They would also carry MP3 recorders that could capture high quality audio as they interact with Keenerfans, wherever they may be.
Advertising on today's Keener Brand would be hip, interactive and meaningful. Listeners would have the opportunity to fill out a personal interest survey. Their total Keener experience, from the skin on the application to the advertisers delivered would be customized, as much as possible, to the micro tastes of the listener.
The database back end would facilitate instant purchases of products, including downloads of the tunes the new Keener plays. The servers would have a buffer capability so that if someone tuned into the stream in the middle of a song, they could rewind to hear the DJ's intro and get the whole experience. And you could press a button to hear your favorite song, Keener style, anytime you wanted.
The new Keener would still be hyper local, but inevitably would draw an international following. During my stint at Real Oldies 1600 in Albuquerque, New Mexico, we had on line listeners from Australia, Japan, China and England. Technology allows the new Keener to serve up content and advertiser messages based on those listeners' preferences (and IP address locations), too, necessitating a local, national and international sales force, and a merchandising manager to deal with the ringtones, t-shirts, mouse pads and branded iPods Keener would sell like hotcakes.
Bob Green and I pondered all of these things across a New York style deli lunch this Spring day in Houston. I asked him what his job might be like if he could rewind to his 20s and start all over today.
"There are so many avenues to promote and entertain today, " he said. "But the concepts of audience engagement still work the same way."
True, a musical artist might sell what we used to call 45s at a fraction of the coast of a CD single, but Bob says today's performer's personal brand is multi-dimensional.
I thought of Wolfman Jack, back in the day when he worked at Mexico's XERB, blasting a 200 KW signal at LA. Listen closely to the sound track of American Graffiti and you'll hear the Wolfman hawking T-shirt, baseball caps and bumper stickers.
Disney figured out long ago that more money is made off of the brand in the gift shops and restaurants than they earn from ticket sales.
And so it would be with the new WKNR, Bob Green believes.
Perhaps Marshall Mcluhan original postulation that "the medium is the massage" has turned upside down. In a world where content must be platform agnostic and where anything digital can be duplicated, it's the message that is the medium. Disney has an incredible brand, and they express it everywhere and every way. That's how we would consume the Keener brand, too.
The new Keener would still be agile and very listener focused. It would have all the techno bells and whistles. But it would also have the personality and the interactive engagement that touches what's important in a Keenerfan's life, just as it did four decades ago.
WKNR began it's slow decline when the advertising became more important than the message. When revenues sagged Keener did what every other radio station in America has done: it cut costs and released the talent that had collaborated to take the operation to the top.
Radio today has forgotten what a brand is all about. But the tools are there for reinvention. At some point, broadcasters, podcasters, streamcasters and webcasters may rediscover that ever evolving alchemy of art and science that fuses true customer sensitivity and true talent into a promise wrapped up in an experience, where everybody wins.
Then as now, that is what profitable relationships are all about.

A man who stabbed and injured two people on a US tour bus has been shot dead by police.
Connecticut State officers said they are dealing with a language barrier as they investigate the incident, which ended with the man being shot dead by police on the Interstate 95 route.
Another trooper is interpreting for the many Asian people who were on the Dahlia bus from New York City to Mohegan Sun casino on Tuesday night.
Authorities said the unidentified man attacked passengers with a "cutting instrument", and the driver flagged down a trooper at a highway construction site in Norwalk.
Officials say the trooper and the man got into a fight, and the trooper was forced to shoot him. The trooper was unhurt.
A bullet fired by the trooper ricocheted and injured a third passenger. The three injured passengers' conditions have not yet been released.

The real boom in nude vacations is coming at the high end, as upscale hotels and resorts have begun seeing the economic potential in the no-clothes crowd. In 2007, nude recreation represented a $440 million industry -- up from $400 million in 2001 -- and it's still growing. A new clothing-optional condo-resort, Mira Vista, left, in Marana, Ariz., has more than a hundred condominiums on the market.

Hands-Only CPR is a method of simplifying CPR. According to the American Heart Association, "It's not normal to see an adult suddenly collapse, but if you do, call 911 and push hard and fast in the center of the chest. Don't be afraid. Your actions can only help."
To advertise the simplified method of CPR, the AHA created an advertisement using American Sign Language. According to the commercial, which is signed and captioned, "Hands can do incredible things. But nothing compares to using them to help save a life with Hands-Only CPR."
Go to the AHA website for Hands-Only CPR to view the video as well as a demonstration of this life-saving technique.

The Chicago Cubs don't have much talent in the MLB roster, but one rookie provided a huge spark last season and he wants to provide it once again in 2014.
Outfielder Junior Lake, who was a shortstop until last year, was called-up to the majors after the All-Star Break and surprised in a brief stint, hitting .284/.332/.428 with six HRs and 16 RBIs. He cooled towards the end of the year, but he provided a steady presence on offense and raw tools that could translate to a solid career if he keeps progressing.
He will have more chances to do it as he seems poised to be a starter on Opening Day this season. The Cubs have Nate Schierholtz and Ryan Sweeney as the only two outfielders that have secured a place for this upcoming season, and all signs are pointing to Lake for that third spot.
Justin Ruggiano seems destined to be a platoon player and with no other viable option, Lake could secure that place with a strong showing in Spring Training. It remains to be seen where he will play, but he could make a case to be the starting CF in 2014.
Despite the fact that Lake played LF last year, the winter ball reports have been quite encouraging in the sense that his insane athleticism is allowing him to be an effective center fielder. He still has a lot of work left to do, particularly when taking routes, but he appears to be a good product going forward.
He is not going to be a star by any means, but it appears that Lake can be a very productive player in 2014. The Cubs need a few of those players, so giving Lake some time to produce can prove to be a very good move looking towards the future.

disaster pet preparedness checklist
Tri State CART Helps Pets & People In Disasters
It was just a little over a year ago when a local organization, Tri State CART, distributed some 28 pallets if Iams pet food to victims of severe storms in Clermont County.
In case you've never heard of Tri State CART, it stands for County Animal Response Team. It coordinates, educates and trains volunteers to prepare for and respond to disasters in 31 counties of the Cincinnati Tri-State area.
"Many animal owners will refuse to evacuate if they cannot take their pets or livestock, and that makes our job very important," said Bonnie Morrison, executive director. "We help people evacuate as quickly as possible with their animals to a safe place until they can return home."
Why Disaster Animal Response Teams
There were a lot of lessons learned from the tragedies in the Gulf Coast. One of those lessons was that animals must be considered and evacuated to best help save people's lives.
The PETS Act was instituted in October of 2006, this act was signed into law. It states that all counties and states have to include plans for animals in their emergency response plans. If this is not done, their FEMA funding gets cut off.
In a disaster, Tri-State CART is one of many organizations that respond to the needs of the people and their animals.

Turnips Braised in Beef Broth
2 photos of Turnips Braised In Beef Broth Recipe
Diane Hughes
I made this at Thanksgiving and everyone loved it. It came from a north Ga. newspaper I subscribe to. The recipe is different from the way I normally cook rudabagas and I wasn't sure I would like it when I read it. But I love to cook and I love to eat even better so, I tried it. Loved it.. thought I'd share with you guys. Try it if you like turnips.. you'll be surprised how good it is. If you don't like turnips you may be surprised and now you do!!
- 2 1/2 lb
- turnips, rutabagas, or a mix of the two, peeled and cut into wedges.
- 1 Tbsp
- butter
- 1/4 lb
- bacon, diced
- 1 medium
- onion, peeled and diced
- 1 Tbsp
- flour
- 3/4 c
- beef broth, canned is fine
- 1 tsp
- sugar
- 1 tsp
- minced fresh sage, or a pinch of dried sage
- salt and freshly ground pepper to taste
How to Make Turnips Braised in Beef Broth
- 1Bring a large pot of water to a boil, add the turnips and cook for 5 minutes. Drain and set aside.
- 2Again in a large pot, melt the butter over a medium flame. Add the diced bacon and cook till very lightly browned. Add the onions, reduce the heat, and cook over a low flame until the onions are soft but not brown. Add the flour and cook, stirring, for a couple of minutes.
- 3Stir in the turnips, broth, sugar, sage, pepper. Cover and simmer slowly for about half an hour, or until the turnips are tender. Every 10 min. or so give it a stir to make sure the mixture is cooking evenly.
- 4Taste for seasoning. You might need a little bit of salt, or you might not, depending on the beef broth and the bacon you used.

residents in the cities. It is a critical issue with both residential and official buildings because
they find it hard to dispose them. Even governments and non-profit organizations are taking
initiatives to keep the waste under control; however, equal initiative should also be taken by
the residential and corporate people too to handle the situation.
To address this problem, it is important to think proactively and hire Junk removal service
providers who can simplify the task by hauling and disposing off the waste in an
environment friendly manner.
Junk Removal services
It has been observed that residents fail to move the unused items, heavy furniture, old
home appliances, junk waste, electronic waste, rubbish items and even construction debris
from their house or garage/attic or backyard, which is a big problem. It not only creates
huge problem for the residents, but also block the space that could be used for some other
purpose. In fact, it can provide refuge to the mites, bugs, mosquitoes, and dust & debris,
which make the place unhygienic.
Junk removal service providers can help people to solve their problem mainly through the
recycling process.
Decorate your house
If you want to decorate your house to make it more attractive where people love to come
and enjoy their time with their kids, then you must take immediate action to kick out the
junk items. If you have old furniture that is hard to dispose off or relocate, then it is good to
hire professional junk haulers who can efficiently take out the furniture items and dispose
them or recycle them.

make it attractive and inviting, too.

Teresa is absolutely wonderful to work with. I originally sent her an inquiry about daylilies (daylily seeds she had for sale, as I recall) in 2015 and was unable to order from her that year, but I remembered just how helpful--and honest!!!--she was and so I returned to look at what she had in 2016 when I was starting to get into irises. She had some irises that I couldn't find anywhere else, which was an added bonus for me. I also appreciated that her website was very honest about the size of the rhizomes I would get (although only a few were small). Despite a couple of the irises being smaller rhizomes, they all were very healthy and grew strong green leaves right away. I purchased them after bloom season in 2016, so I haven't seen them yet, but I have no doubt they will yield wonderful flowers this season (2017), if their leaves are any indication.

I have purchased daylily seeds and daylily plants from T's. Teresa Daly is a really great lady and all the seeds she sent were good. The plants came to me in wonderful shape, and they are all doing well in my garden. She is the only place I will go for daylilies. Her prices are about the best I have found on the Internet as well.

[72] and were rifled with three grooves, after the manner of Parrott. The army in observation at Harper's Ferry, and that at Manassas, were supplied with old batteries of six-pounder guns and twelve-pounder Howitzers. A few Parrott guns purchased by the State of Virginia were with Magruder at Big Bethel. For the ammunition and equipments required for the infantry and artillery a good laboratory and shops had been established at Richmond by the State, but none of the Southern arsenals were yet in a condition to do much work. The arsenal at Augusta, Ga., was directed to organize for the preparation of ammunition and the making of knapsacks, of which there were none wherewith to equip the troops now daily taking the field. The arsenal at Charleston and the depot at Savannah were occupied chiefly with local work. The arsenal at Baton Rouge was rapidly getting under way; and that at Mt. Vernon, Ala., was also being prepared for work. None of them had had facilities for the work usually done at an arsenal. Fayetteville, N. C. was in the hands of that State, and was occupied chiefly in repairing some arms, and in making up a small amount of small arm ammunition. Little artillery ammunition was being made up, except for local purposes, save at Richmond. Such was the general condition of supplies when the Government, quitting Montgomery, established itself at Richmond.

[1] NH, IV, 212-24, and AD, NNP. Nicolay and Hay date this fragment [October 1, 1858?]. While a fixed date cannot be given, obviously the arguments and much of the language of the fragment are duplicated in Lincoln's reply to Douglas in the Debate at Ottawa, August 21, and the last three paragraphs appear in his speeches at Bloomington, September 4, and Edwardsville, September 11. Presuming that Nicolay and Hay found the manuscript of the fragment intact as printed in the Complete Works, one concludes that it was composed prior to or between August 21 and September 11. Only two pages of the manuscript have been located, however, as indicated in the succeeding footnote. Presumably the manuscript was dispersed after Nicolay and Hay had access to it.
[2] From this point to the end, the text has been corrected from two pages of autograph manuscript in the Pierpont Morgan Library. A third page of manuscript held by the Morgan Library in association with these two may have formed part of the same manuscript. Nicolay and Hay, however, include it with another fragment (c. May 18, 1858, supra), presumably for sufficient reasons, and the present editors have followed their predecessors in the absence of sufficient evidence to the contrary. The Morgan Library has all three pages dated [June 18---November 4, 1860], which date cannot be supported by the contents of the pages.

Debt to credit ratio is the percentage of a consumer's gross income that goes toward paying debts. It shows how much you are using the credit that is available to you, or rather, how heavily your finances lean on credit.
How is debt to credit ratio calculated?
Your overall debt to credit ratio (also called credit utilization limit) is calculated by dividing the total amount of debt by the total of your credit limits. It is also done for each separate account. High debt load in either category lowers your FICO credit score.
Debt to credit ratio = Debt used divided by available credit multiplied by one hundred.
For example, a debt of $4,000 on a credit card with an $8,000 limit = 50% . $6,000 on the same card gives a ratio of 75%.
The higher this ratio is, the closer you are to financial trouble. Creditors use it to examine your overall risk. The closer you are to being maxed out, the more of a risk you are to the creditor. It therefore affects your ability to obtain loans at favorable rates from financial institutions. It is advisable to keep your ratio as low as you can by working to pay off your debts. You can even use debt reduction services to help with this (assuming you go with a private loan).
How Much is Too Much?
Now that you have made your calculation, we need to answer the question "how much is too much?". When applying for credit, the loan officer will check your debt to credit ratio as one factor in making a decision, though it will not be the only factor considered. The same credit utilization limit may be great for one family but may have a negative effect on another. Debt to credit ratios are a subjective tool for loan officers to make decisions about your ability to meet a new obligation. There are some general guidelines, however, that can give you a reasonably clear picture of where you stand in the eyes of a credit officer.
- Below 30% is generally considered as an excellent ratio by the wide majority of loan officers
- 20% to 36% is a good ratio and will most likely not cause any problems with loan officers or have a negative impact on your FICO score
- 36% to 40% puts you on the edge of acceptability. Most lenders will ask for an explanation for why your debt to credit ratio is so high. In addition, a debt to credit ratio in this range begins to have a negative impact on your FICO score so lenders look to other strong numbers before making a decision to loan more money to you
- Greater than 40% sends up red flags with lenders and your FICO score. Often, this high a ratio will be a deal killer with most lenders
By calculating your own debt to credit ratio you begin to get a handle on your own financial situation. If the ratio is too high it alerts you that you are too deep into debt and you must do something to lower debt. Of course, if it is very low then you don't need to do anything.
Reasons You Need to Control Your Debt to Credit Ratio
Your credit utilization is what makes the difference between paying your bills every month or falling behind and into financial crisis. Loosely speaking, if you pay out nearly as much (or more) in monthly costs as you bring in, your debt to income ratio is certainly too high. As a business owner, it is important to pay attention to debt to credit ratio because it could have a significant impact if it gets out of control. Below are some of the reasons:
- You may not be eligible for the financing you need when you need it if you have a high debt to credit ratio. One of the ways many people have fallen into an unfavorable position is through credit cards. Poor management of credit cards and accepting every offer that comes your way will make your ratio jump through the roof faster than you'd ever expect possible.
- High ratios often lead to financial troubles. Financial problems are very stressful and taxing on people's emotions. They are one of the key reasons that relationships end – both business and personal relationships.
- When a ratio is too high it will obviously be reflected in your credit score. Although credit score is not everything for business owners it is still important. Credit scores are key determinants of the rates that you will be offered and if you qualify for conventional financing. Conventional financing usually has the most favorable rates and terms. The higher the risk the higher the payment. The higher the payment the higher the debt. It is easy to see why you are best to just avoid getting yourself into a situation with an extreme debt ratio.
- It is easier to control your finances. When you have less debt you are less likely to forget to clear a bill or fall a little short of cash at the end of the month. Very few people enjoy paying bills and it is never fun. When you have to pay them while worrying about having enough money to do so makes bill paying a nightmare.
- When you need financing the approval process will be much quicker. Debt to credit ratio is one of the first factors a creditor looks at when making a decision to lend to you. Drawn out approval processes can often be time consuming, discouraging, and negative if you don't get approved when all is said and done.
In order to be financially responsible you need to make the correct choices. Anybody who has come back from a large debt has probably warned you that it is not easy. They usually say, "It was far easier to get into than get out." This is why it's important to start managing your credit utilization limit, NOW!

Cyprus has been involved in a pilot project entitled 'Greener Beaches' to cement the country's reputation as a destination of sustainable tourism excellence.
The trial project has been implemented at two of Cyprus' preferred beaches in the Famagusta district: Nissi Beach in Ayia Napa and Fig Tree Bay in Protaras. The goal of the project is to demonstrate the vision of a best practice 'green' beach through the implementation of recommendations from a previous study.
A unique five-year partnership has been formed between the Cyprus Tourism Organisation (CTO), the Cyprus Sustainable Tourism Initiative and the Travel Foundation, which intends to see Cyprus become a leader in sustainable tourism. The project is one of many and seeks to preserve the local culture, protect the natural environment in Cyprus and help local people benefit from tourism.
Julie Middleton, head of the Industry Partnerships of the Travel Foundation, commented, "The project aims to cement Cyprus' reputation as a destination of sustainable tourism excellence." It is expected that 'greening' the beaches will increase tourist satisfaction, ensure continued international and local visitor-flow, and protect one of Cyprus' best tourism assets.
According to a recent survey, visitors to the two beaches selected for the pilot scheme reported that the project had made the beaches more attractive. President of the CTO Alekos Orountiotis stated that 57 Cypriot beaches satisfy the criteria of the European 'Blue Flag' project and are part of the most attractive beaches in the Mediterranean. The Blue Flag is an exclusive eco-label awarded to beaches and marinas throughout the world.
International investors in the buy-to-let market are expected to gain from the 'Greener Beaches' project and the CTO's commitment to sustainable tourism. It is expected the scheme will have a positive impact on property sales in Ayia Napa and other resorts on the island.

Hi Mike. I like your description of grocery shopping, you raid. I would agree with that. Get in, get through, get out. I've always done the grocery shopping for my household. After years of the same routine the checkers and baggers and counterpersons may also recognize you and you call them by name and it feels good to know they appreciate you as a customer for your appreciation of them.ReplyDelete
But for several weeks now we have been ordering online and getting them delivered. Well, most, some things you still want to pick out yourself sometimes. My wife is the one who suggested it, and it's just too easy - spend a hundred bucks and delivery is free! We do tip the driver, however.
I can't say I miss mingling with the great unwashed populace among the often stressed staff and the time and hassle to do it. Though, somehow, the personal connections with seeing the same stockers or getting the same checker almost every week or the really old, nice lady bagger who gave me tons of extra bags for cat litter; those things will be missed.Replies
I think if I could home delivery I would pay for it, and then some. But then what would I have to write about?Delete
As far as missing the people working the store I think I would but I wouldn't miss my fellow shoppers.
I regret I can't tip cashiers who have their shit together.Delete
Fish and geese who don't have their shit together are killed off by the school/flock. We should follow3 their example.
