Check out this presentation about the USS Colorado's Christening
Welcome to USS Colorado (SSN-788) Commissioning Committee web site. USS Colorado (SSN-788) is the 15th Virginia Class submarine and completed construction at Electric Boat shipyard and has been delivered to the Navy. After completing shakedown operations, it is expected to be commissioned on March 17th, 2018. Our committee's purposes are to promote awareness within the state, provide support for the crew, and to help organize and raise money for the events surrounding commissioning.
On the weekend of the Colorado's Christening, several events were held bringing together the crew of PCU Colorado, the veterans of Battleship USS Colorado (BB 45), the Coloradans who traveled to Connecticut for the event and the ship's sponsor Annie Mabus. On Friday afternoon, the Committee held a reception for the Colorado contingent to meet the Crew and the ship's sponsor, Annie Mabus. We were happy that the veterans of the Battleship USS Colorado (BB 45) and their families could join us. Nearly 250 got together in the Marriott. It was great to see the groups intermingle, especially as the WWII vets shared their sea stories with the crew. Former State Senator Bernie Herpin presented Annie with a sample of the USS Colorado license plate which he sponsored in the legislature. State Senators Larry Crowder, Mary Hodge and Senator elect Bob Gardner helped Committee Chair 'JJ' Mackin present a copy of the ship's crest which was signed by all state legislators and the Governor during the last session to the Commanding Officer, CDR Ken Franklin. The crest will be mounted on one of the tables in the Crew's Mess.
Veterans of the Battleship USS Colorado (BB 45) who attended the events were Frank Byars, Bill Dougherty, Ken Jones, David Jones, Charles Johnson, Wayne Kizer, Charlie Ripper, Bill Tomczyk, and Randall Toop. Also participating were widows of crew members Mariana Cochran, Charlotte Dean, Geraldine Jacks and Erma Krishnek. Some of this group traveled from as far as Texas, Oklahoma and Idaho. We were honored by their presence which made the events of the weekend truly special.
On Friday evening Electric Boat hosted a special Sponsor's Dinner for Annie. The dinner included executives from Electric Boat, Congressmen, the CO, XO, COB and about six crew members from the boat and their spouses. At this dinner CDR Ken Franklin honored Annie by making her an honorary Submariner and presenting her with Dolphins.
On Saturday after the Christening, Electric Boat held a reception at the Marriott. The Colorado Thirty Group presented a special plaque of the Ship's Crest to the Commanding Officer. The Thirty Group commissioned Native American artist and Vietnam veteran Doug Hyde, a noted bronze artist, to create this plaque which will be mounted in the boat's wardroom for the life of the submarine. It will serve as a permanent reminder of the support from the citizens of Colorado for the mission of the crew and vessel. The Colorado Thirty Group, founded in 1978, is a state-wide military support organization providing educational events to its participants. The group also provides Colorado military installation commanders with connections to communities in the state and acts in support of military missions. The sculpture was commissioned with the support of its members.
On Saturday evening the Commissioning Committee organized a social hour and buffet dinner for the Colorado contingent, the Battleship veterans group and the CO, XO and COB. About 150 were in attendance. The highlight of the evening was when the veterans described some of their experiences during the war on BB45. It truly captivated those listening and made us all the more appreciative of the sacrifices that these brave men made to preserve our freedom
Overall the Christening and surrounding events were truly memorable experiences. The crew enjoyed the support from attending Coloradans and were truly humbled to meet the veterans from their namesake Battleship.
On December 3rd, USS Colorado was Christened by Ship's Sponsor, Annie Mabus, in ceremonies at General Dynamics Electric Boat Shipyard in Groton, Connecticut.
The Christening is the ceremony where the ship is officially given it's name by the sponsor and is blessed before it enters the water. In the past the submarine immediately slid into the water after a bottle of wine was broken over it's hull. Modern submarines however are too large for this so the "float off" is now a separate event and will happen for Colorado in about three weeks.
References to ceremony surrounding ship launchings can be found as far back as the 3rd Millennium BC, The Egyptians, Greeks, and Romans all called upon their gods to protect seamen. In the US Navy the first recorded Christening was that of USS Ironsides on October 21, 1797.
It is part of that tradition that the ship's sponsor is technically considered a permanent member of the ship's crew and is expected to impart her personality to the ship as well as be an advocate for its continued service and well-being.
Colorado winery Balistreri Vineyards produced a special batch of sparkling wine for the Christening. To honor the Battleship USS Colorado (BB 45), which was christened in 1923 with a bottle of "muddy Colorado River water", the sparkling wine rested in a bucket filled with ice made from Colorado River water.
Seven veterans of WWII service on Battleship Colorado were present and, as part of the ceremony, presented to the crew pens made of teak decking salvaged from the battleship when it was decommissioned in 1947. The decking, as one veteran put it, was "washed in the blood of our brothers." Battleship Colorado saw heavy action during the war earning seven Battle Stars during which 93 men lost their lives.
The state of Colorado was well represented at the Ceremony. Over 100 persons traveled from the Centennial State to witness and celebrate the event. The Colorado contingent consisted of members of the Commissioning Committee and several sponsors, State Senators Larry Crowder, Mary Hodge and Bob Gardner, submarine veterans, crew member families and other submarine supporters. Members of Congress from Colorado present were Representatives Mike Coffman, Ed Perlmutter and Doug Lamborn. The three Congressmen were part of the official party, each providing remarks during the program. Other remarks were from shipyard officials, Congressmen and Senators from Connecticut and Rhode Island and Governor Daniel Mallory of Connecticut.
RADM Michael Jabalay introduced the principal speaker, Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus. Secretary Mabus, proud father of the sponsor, gave tribute to the Veterans and the Crew.He will leave office in January and after an eight year tenure will be the longest running Secretary of the Navy since WWI.
Annie's remarks acknowledged the great honor and looked forward to her continuing relationship with the subsequent Captains and Crew throughout Colorado's life.
After a blessing by Father Anthony Dinoto, the ceremony concluded with the breaking of the bottle of sparkling wine with the traditional words "In the name of the United States, I Christen thee Colorado. May God bless her and all who sail in her."
Here is the Christening Program:
An abbreviated video of the ceremony will be posted for the next week at www.gdebchristenings.com
Preparations for USS Colorado's Christening are well underway. General Dynamics Electric Boat shipyard is expecting about 3,000 persons to attend this momentous event on December 3rd. Colorado will be well represented.
Colorado's own Balistreri Vineyards has produced the sparkling wine that will be broken over the boat by the ship's sponsor, Annie Mabus, as the boat is officially given its name. To honor the Battleship Colorado, which was christened in 1923 with a bottle of "muddy Colorado River water", the sparkling wine will rest in a bucket filled with ice made with water from our own Colorado River. About ten veterans who served on the Battleship Colorado during World War II will be in attendance along with about 75 family members.
Over 100 Coloradans are planning on making the trip to Groton for the event. Senator Bennett and Representative Perlmutter will be part of the official party. Four members of the state legislature will be in attendance. In addition, the Colorado contingent will include members of the Commissioning Committee, Submarine Veterans and other supporters of USS Colorado (SSN 788). Several family members of native Colorado crew members will also attend.
As part of the activities of the day, the Colorado Thirty Group, a non-profit group which fosters understanding and cooperation between the civilian community, the government and the military, will present a sculpture of the ship's crest which will be mounted on the boat when it is completed.
The Commissioning Committee will hold a reception for the Colorado contingent and the Crew on Friday before the Christening.
USS Colorado (SSN 788) is the 15th Virginia Class nuclear attack submarine and will be commissioned and enter service late next summer. It is the fourth ship to bear the name. Be sure to sign up on our web site for the Commissioning Committee's newsletter and email list to keep abreast of committee activities and information about the commissioning. We hope to have an even larger group attend from Colorado for the Commissioning.

Disclosure: I received no monetary compensation for this post. I received a complimentary copy of the app for the purposes of this review. All opinions are my own.
Do you know what today is? It's the release of MONSTERS UNIVERSITY! I am a little excited, in case you can't tell. Though we did get to see it last month while attending Disney Social Media Moms, I have full plans to take Raileigh back and see it once again now that it is officially in theaters.
To coordinate with the release, I have a fun new app to tell you about. It's the Monsters University Storybook Deluxe App from Disney Publishing.
This amazing new app is full of exciting features that allow you to relive the movie and expand the fun in all-new adventures. Check it out:
• Fully animated and interactive storybook art, real film clips, character voices lifted from the film, Read-on-Your-Own and Listen-Along reading options!
• Interactive fun: Tappable quotes, tap to reveal special animations, including Archie the Scare Pig and more!
• Activities: Create your own Monsters University ID Badge in which you can monsterify a photo of you, your family or friends!
• Play: 3-D first-person POV of all FIVE Scare Games. Earn points by avoiding obstacles, climbing up and down walls, onto the ceiling—and finally giving your best scary roar!
• Game Rewards: Unique Scare Cards of your favorite monsters and an official Monsters University trophy screen!
• Featuring the voice talents of Billy Crystal, John Goodman, Helen Mirren and more!
• Unlock more special rewards if you own the Monsters, Inc. Storybook Deluxe app!
• Featuring: English, French, Italian, German, Russian and Castilian Spanish
Yes– it is full of fun, just waiting to be uncovered.
Would you like to know what our favorite part of the app is? Well… the truth is, I can't decide! We are completely smitten with Monsters University and every aspect of this app.
On one hand, you have the interactive storybook, which is truly a lot of fun. In my opinion, I wouldn't read it before seeing the movie, unless you like spoilers. But afterwards, it is a great way to relive some of your favorite moments and perhaps catch a new one that slipped past you when you saw the movie.
While I normally do encourage Raileigh to use the "Read on Your Own" options when enjoying a book app, the "Listen Along" option on this app is awesome.You actually get to hear the character voices like in the movie!
We also really, really like the Scare Games. You can participate in each of the ones featured within the movie in this app. It is truly a lot of fun! You can even earn rewards for your performance in the games. And– who doesn't like that?
We have had such a good time so far with the Monsters University Storybook Deluxe App. With all of it's amazing features, this app is so much more than just a book.
For today only {in celebration of the movie's release} the Monsters University Storybook Deluxe App is on sale for just $4.99. That's a TWO DOLLAR savings off of the normal price. So, now is definitely the time to buy.
If you head over and download the Monsters University Storybook Deluxe App for your iPad, iPhone, or iPod Touch, I would love to know what your favorite aspect of this awesome new app is.

The Buffalo make a comeback
By 1902, only a few hundred buffalo remained in the United States. Most were held captive in zoos or in private ranches. Only 23 survived in the wild, the buffalo were facing extinction. In response to a public outcry, the U.S congress released some captive Bison into Yellowstone National Park to rebuild a wild herd. So now, more than 100 years later, efforts are underway to repopulate the species, as the America buffalo fight back! Today, nearly 2,500 wild buffalo make their home in Yellowstone Park. Its one of the greatest comeback stories in conservation history! The buffalo are fighting back. On 8,900 square kilometers of parkland, they reclaim their place alongside other wild animals that once dominated the American wilderness.
The success story for buffalo goes beyond Yellowstone, today over 150,000 bison are being raised in other parks and ranches across America. In South Dakota, Fred Dubre manages buffalo for the shian river sun reservation. He corrals the herd of wild bison over 80 square kilometers of land. Fred Dubre founded the Intertribal Bison Cooperative to restore the buffalo to public and Indian lands. Through Fred's efforts, Native Americans now raise over 15,000 buffalo over 400 square kilometers of tribal lands. But it's not just a case of taking care of the buffalo. Fred also believes that the buffalo helped to take care of the prairie. He says that if you take care of the land, it will take care of you, and if you respect the things on it and take care of it, it shall do the same. He says there is no better way to take care of the land than to take care of the buffalo that are part of the natural ecosystem on the land.
With the return of the buffalo, Native Americans are rediscovering their cultural pride. At pow wows around the country they are reconnecting with their past. Over the last 100 years, their culture had almost disappeared but today it is returning. So in a sense it seems as though the Native American have gotten their fight back as well.

Insects as food is a hot topic. Since the UN recommended edible insects as a resource to combat world hunger, they have been heralded for their taste by cooks and gastronomes, for their low ecological impact by environmentalists, and for their nutritional content by public health scientists. The Nordic Food Lab sends a chef and a food-science researcher around the world to investigate cultures and establishments that serve meals containing insects.

Damage caps affect only "those who were harmed by preventable errors"
Tuesday, February 16, 2010
St. Louis Post-Dispatch: According to the P-D editorial board, "Republican dogma holds that too many 'frivolous' malpractice cases already are filed by 'greedy trial lawyers.' The evidence says otherwise….The only people affected by damage caps are those who were harmed by preventable errors. Making the system fairer to doctors and patients is a worthwhile goal. But selling 'tort reform' as a miracle cure for health care spending? That's just snake oil."

I just want to make sure that I mean to him as much as he means to me. We had a fight bcz he sometimes tends to yell or disrespect. he keeps saying i'm a child and shdnt be thinkin like that. I said it's ABC in a realtionship respect is important no matter what.. we were arguing and on the phone he was like " GOSH PLEASE SEND ME A WOMAN! i don't wanna deal with a child!" we argued and ended the call and i sent him this message and logged off " I don't want to take much from ur time, you have a lot of work to do and I can't be online for the situation I'm in. Everything that I did was because I care about you and ur work, it's bcz I love you and I wanna be the best in your eyes in everything, I try to prove wrong everything you ever said about me to put me down. I tried to be there and help but apparently I'm not doing it right? I just don't know why I am treated like that, when all I want is for you to realize that I am the one who cares about you the most and wants to be there for you. I wanted you to appreciate what I'm trying to do and show, instead of slapping me on the face everytime I try to. (<metaphor he dznt do it) It's ok I get it, you're asking God for another woman and that explains everything. I'm not the one u want, it's unfortunate that I'm not when I was willing to throw everything for u. I just hoped you'd see how much of a woman i am even if u deny that and say that I'm not. I am not any woman you see, I'm the kind of woman that gives her all to the man she loves. You will realize all of this by yourself. I won't bother you anymore, it's the last thing I want to do. I never wanted to be thought of as annoying, and never will be, so I'll leave you and I know in my heart that it's what you want. I'm not saying that it doesn't hurt, it kills me but it's up to you. good luck, I wish u the best. Take care." he then replied with a question mark. that's it I didn't reply yet. how should i act when i see him in class? what did he mean by "?" what shd i do?

A retired accountant and business manager, he took up jogging in 1973 as part of a physical fitness regimen for reserve officers in the Air Force. He didn't enter a race, however, until just after his 40th birthday, finishing a 10K in 1:41:55. Five years later, at age 45, he ran his marathon personal best of 3:03:21, but most of his other personal bests came in 1995 and 1996, including 17:02 for 5K, 35:22 for 10K, and 56:08 for 15K. "I didn't really have a structured training program until I joined Rick Kleyman's running group in 1994," Weddle explains as to why it took until his late 50s for him to achieve his best times. "It was the first time I had any kind of plan to follow. Before that I just went out and ran." He didn't improve his marathon time because he decided to focus on shorter races to avoid injuries.
When he is not "flying" over a race course, Weddle can often be found flying around the country or to foreign countries, as he has a private pilot's license and works part-time for an aviation company.
He logs up to 45 miles a week in a three-phase program designed for him by his coach, Roy Benson. "Thom has been a great client because he values objective data," Benson says. "His accounting and auditing career have prepared him well to take a more scientific approach to his training and racing."
Looking ahead to joining the 70-74 division on August 23, Weddle says, "I feel like a race horse ready to break out of the chute."

12/14 Palm Beach, FL
This is for real. Not something from an SNL skit. (Another weird news story from MSNBC) A 58 y/o man, Louis Lorensen, attempted to steal 11 packages of meat from a Winn-Dixie… in a motorized shopping cart scooter. As he was "rolling" out at 3mph, a child was blocking his path at the entrance. He yelled for him to move, but the boy was petrified. Lorensen ran over the childs foot and out into the parking lot.
Shortly after, he was cornered in the Winn-Dixie lot while yelling "I ain't no punk, and I ain't going down without a fight."
When he was brought to the police station, he told officers "When you take these cuffs off, I'm going to punch you in the face." Lorensen is now faced with aggravated battery on a child, larceny, possession of stolen property, and resisting arrest.

Shahid Kapoor, was a free bird three months ago and lived a happy and independent life all by himself. However, there's a big difference between then and now after his wedding with Mira Rajput.
The Shaandaar actor says, life has changed for the better after marriage and feels more responsible towards his family. "Marriage has changed me a lot. I think it's the same for everyone. It makes you more responsible."
Shahid Kapoor, has become more matured in deciding his movie offers keeping in mind that he is no longer single, and needs to take care of his family. Seriousness has surely got Shahid Kapoor at right time, age of his career. The actor was quoted as saying.
"I've been earning for myself since I was 16. I shifted into a house of my own and started living alone when I was 24. So, although I have always had responsibilities towards my family, I have essentially lived a very independent life. When you get married, it makes you feel a lot more responsible. It makes you feel settled, it grounds you and helps you understand where your future lies. It gives you a certain clarity. So you are like, Okay, this is the rest of my life. At least you think like that."

Asafa Powell will find the crowd smaller and the surface a whole lot different when he competes this weekend in the Stawell Gift, a century-old handicap race held in a small town in western Victoria state.
Powell, who says he's fully recovered from the left hamstring injury which caused him to pull up in the 100-meter race at last year's London Olympics won by his countryman Usain Bolt, will start from scratch.
Starting from a mark one meter ahead of him will be Australia's best sprinter, Josh Ross, who has twice won the 131-year-old Stawell Gift and is one of only two runners to win it off scratch.
Other competitors will be lined up at various starting positions on the track according to their 100-meter qualifying times.
Powell says the turf track at the country town's Central Park should pose no problems because he trains on grass regularly at home in Jamaica.
"I've been working very hard after London," the 30-year-old Powell said on Wednesday. "I went into recovery and then started training in October.
"I'm in good shape, if not the best yet because I'm still in background training and I haven't really started speed training. I'm strong right now and very excited to see what I can do on the track."
Powell, who has set the 100-meter world record more times than any other runner, was encouraged to compete in Stawell by fellow Jamaican Michael Frater, who was eliminated in the Australian race's semifinals last year.
Heats for the race take place on Saturday with the semifinals and final on Monday.
Stawell is a former gold rush town located about 235 kilometers (145 miles) west of Melbourne. Its biggest single tourist attraction each year is the Gift.

Meet the next great jazz innovator, Winnepeg's Daniel Koulack. His instrument? The banjo.
Though his forthcoming album, Frailing To Succeed, is anchored by his much lauded clawhammer playing style, Koulack surrounds himself with traditional jazz instruments– soprano saxophone, alto saxophone, clarinet, flute, violin, marimba, percussion, and drum kit—to present a new kind of fusion. But though the mix may seem unusual to new listeners, Koulack himself has spent his career working in Winnipeg's eclectic music scene, playing with jazz, African, Klezmer, French-Canadian and classical musicians.
The eleven tracks of Koulack's new record, which releases in the U.S. on December 9th, burst with energy, warmth and the exuberance he's brought the instrument since he first picked it up at the age of 11. He's supported in his new effort by the Knappen Street All-star Band, made up of versatile saxophonists Bill Spornitz, Jonnie Bakan and creative percussionist Dan Roy, as well as Don Benedictson on bass and Sterfan Bauer on marimba.
Today, we're premiering "Happy Tune," the cheerful opening track of the album. Koulack tellls Elmore, "I think the "Happy Tune" was either the second to last or last tune that I wrote when I was preparing to record… so my juices were flowing. I had been plugging away at some complicated arrangements, and I decided "Okay, let's write something really simple!" This tune jumped out. When I arrange, I often mull over, and write and rewrite, but in this case a bass part revealed itself immediately, and then the written horn and fiddle parts (the lines played in harmony) popped into my head. With some sections left open for the horns and fiddle to play a little it all made sense. I love the way Ben (fiddle), and Jonnie and Bill (horns) played on this tune. As is common in the old-time banjo world, I use many different tunings, each with its own flavor: this tune is in what I think is one of the sweetest… the "Last Chance Tuning.""
The piece is mesmerizing in its joyous repetition. Each instrument gets a moment to shine, from the soaring fiddle part to the conversational horns that seem to laugh and bounce as they rise out of the ensemble. In between, Koulack roots the track with the gentle twang of his banjo.
Follow Daniel Koulack on his website and listen to "Happy Tune" below.

Thank you Emirates Airlines? UAE tourists to Protugal increase 140%

Portugal has seen an influx of tourists from the UAE, with numbers increasing 140 per cent in the last year, an official has said.
The increase in tourism numbers was spurred by the launch of a daily Emirates flight route to Lisbon back in July 2012.
Claudia Miguel, trade relations for tourism in Portugal, said, "the launch of the route of Emirates to Lisbon, opened up Portugal to markets that it wasn't part of before, it also made us a tourist destination in the region, and we saw this with the increase in tourist figures, which we see increasing more and more."
The GCC's residents also find Portugal the ideal place for sports schools, said Miguel.
"Many people from the region find Portugal interesting for sports in particular sports clinics. Many families send their children to these training schools, and of course we have Cristiano Ronaldo who has many fans here and he has become the ambassador for Emirates, so I think the word has spread, and Portugal has been put on the map as a tourist destination for people here in the region and the UAE."
In May, Portugal saw an overwhelming response from the CEI Atoleiros, the equestrian endurance event sponsored by Sheikh Mansoor Bin Zayed Al Nahyan, Deputy Prime Minister of UAE. The event was held in the town of Fronteira in the Alentejo region.
"The equestrian event held in May put Portugal at the forefront of tourist destinations for Gulf residents, we saw an overwhelming number of visitors, and a lot of them came back, which is good to see."
It is not just tourists from the UAE that are heading to Portugal but Portuguese nationals are also seeing the UAE as an increasingly attractive destination to visit, due to its proximity to Asia.
"Dubai as a destination is an attractive stopover for routes to Thailand and Australia. A lot of tourists from Portugal like to stay in Dubai for a few days on the way to the Far East, this is an increasing trend we are seeing."
When it comes to international tourists, Portugal is also seeing a rise in numbers.
"We received around more than eight million international tourists last year and we as a population are only 10 million, so we can say there is great growth in tourism numbers in Portugal. So things are looking pretty good.
"We are also beginning to receive a lot of Chinese tourists, and we are catering our services to receive them better as they have very particular tastes and requirements. So even the nationality of our tourists is changing.
"In terms of tourists from emerging markets we can say that it is increasing by 70 per cent a year," added Miguel.

text: for an update on difficult child 1. She was assigned to him back in 5th grade when he was diagnosis'd with Crohn's and now she follows him to make sure he's getting the support he needs for whatever health issues are plaguing him. She gave me some good tips for handling his ADHD issues despite the school denying him the IEP last year and told me to simply request an addendum meeting if he starts to struggle and ask for additional supports. She makes it sound so easy, when it wasn't that easy last year to get anyone to listen. Maybe the staff at this school is easier to work with and she knows it? I guess we'll find out eventually. This morning she's sending an email out to all of difficult child 1's teachers to let them know about all his physical and mental health issues and that I'll be in contact via email if I notice any problems cropping up. I'm so happy to have her as an ally on the "inside".

Please use the form above to request admissions info for Georgia Perimeter College.
If you decide to rush a fraternity or join a sorority, there are several factors you should take into account before you get overwhelmed by all the attention they are giving you. The brothers or sisters have their own agenda, and need to fill up the house with a new pledge class every year. Look at the clothes everyone is wearing, and especially their shoes. Are these the same clothes and shoes that you always wear? How do people talk? Do they make sense to you, and seem like the same crowd of friends you left back home?
Nobody wants to feel left out, so you may find yourself spending money you can't afford, and focusing more on fitting into your fraternity or sorority house, than concentrating on doing well in college. Alternatively, if you fit right in, the frats and sororities can be a great place to spend you college career, making life-long friendships, and having the time of your life. Beyond degree requirements such as Georgia Perimeter College admissions applications, you may consider Nassau Community College SAT exam dates for complementary electives to your primary course of study.

Title: Headlong Into Danger
By: angstytimelord
Pairing: Hannibal Lecter/Will Graham
Fandom: Hannibal
Rating: PG-13
Table: 1drabble
Prompt: 10, Weakness
Author's Note: Sequel to "Inadequate."
Disclaimer: This is entirely a product of my own imagination, and I make no profit from it. I do not own the lovely Hannibal Lecter or Will Graham, unfortunately, just borrowing them for a while. Please do not sue.
***Now that he was here, in Hannibal's house, he didn't want to talk.
Will squirmed in the chair that he always sat in during their psychiatric sessions, feeling uncomfortable. Even though they weren't in a session, and he was just talking to Hannibal, he felt even more wary than when the other man had first tried to probe into his thoughts.
He didn't want to admit that he had a weakness, much less that said weakness was being alone in his house at night and feeling that he was being watched.
Looking back at last night, it seemed so silly to him now. There hadn't been anyone outside his house. He wasn't being watched. He was letting his paranoia take him over, for some weird reason. He was letting his inner fears run away with him.
He couldn't keep doing that. Not if he wanted to hold on to his sanity.
He had to get past this, had to convince Hannibal that he was all right, that nothing had happened at his house just last night. He had to convince himself that he wasn't losing his mind, that he wasn't giving in to his own fears.
He couldn't let those fears be his weakness. If he did, then they would win, and they would slowly start to take him over, and drive him insane.
He wasn't going to let that happen, Will told himself firmly. He wasn't going to give in to his fears. He would fight all the way to the bitter end, if need be.
"Will, I know something is wrong." Hannibal's calm, precise voice cut into his thoughts, making his gaze snap back to the man sitting across from him. "You wouldn't be looking so nervous and tense if it wasn't. I think you should tell me what's bothering you."
Should he tell Hannibal? Or would it all sound crazy if he did?
Will took a deep breath, ready to let the words spill out, to put this burden on Hannibal's shoulders, or at least to let the other man share it. But the words clogged in his throat; he couldn't speak them aloud. He couldn't admit to his own weakness.
Instead, he only shook his head, murmuring, "No, nothing's wrong. Just stressed from work, and feeling a little overworked. That's all, really."
He couldn't admit his weakness to Hannibal. He couldn't leave himself open to ridicule, or let Hannibal talk him out of what he was feeling. He was going to have to with this himself, and either overcome his fears, or face them head-on, on his own.
He just hoped that he was making the right decision, and not running headlong into danger.

They aren't directly harmful to your fish but the algae blooms which will occur can deplete oxygen which would then effect your fish. Phosphates naturally occur as wastes are broken down within the aquarium but can also be introduced as anything from food, chemicals to buffer water and the actual water itself could contain phosphate. Seachem PhosGuard quickly removes phosphate and silicate from marine and freshwater tanks. We do not, however, recommend for phosphate buffered freshwater. Seachem PhosGuard is highly porous for high capacity and is also bead-shaped, so you have optimum water flow. The spherical shape of Seachem Phosguard allows for maximum water flow through the media. Granular phosphate removers can become compacted, dramatically limiting their capacity to remove phosphate. If the media can't come into contact with the water, it can't remove phosphate from it! In recent years there has been speculation that aluminium oxide based phosphate removers like Seachem PhosGuard release aluminium into the water. Speculation was that this may damage corals. The evidence to support this claim was largely anecdotal, however. So, through a series of controlled experiments in both freshwater and saltwater, we intended to address both the question of aluminium solubility and aluminium toxicity. Experimental Research Our experiment results show that under reef conditions (pH near 8) no detectable soluble aluminium released from alumina. We did find that under conditions of low pH and high dosage levels, alumina releases soluble aluminium; at three times the label dosage rate, we detected 0.2 mg/L aluminium at a pH of 5.3. Additionally, aluminium oxide is not easily absorbed into the cell to cause negative reactions. Even at three times the dose of PhosGuard, soft-bodied corals such as Sarcophyton remains unaffected.

OMGoodness, have you noticed that some of the most frustrated, disorganized people are the ones with the most time management books on their shelves?! And as momprenuers we really struggle with time management because so many things have to be done AT THE SAME TIME!
I remember one day I needed to make an important phone call but the baby's diaper needed to be changed, the toddler had just made a mess that required 15mins of clean-up time, the UPS guy was at the door and I REALLY HAD TO PEE.
I remember always being in waiting mode: wanting to work but waiting for the toddler to go to sleep, waiting for the kids to finish eating, waiting for the older kids to finish cleaning the kitchen so that I could inspect it, waiting for the toddler to wake up-because as soon as I got started working, the kid would UNDOUBTLY wake up and want to be held and fed and changed!
I've found time management tips that addressed the working mom and the SAHM but not much that helps the mom entrepreneur . So this January series will do just that: help YOU as a mompreneur better manage yourself and your frustrations so that you can be a highly effective entrepreneur! So let's get started with these great time-management tips for mom entrepreneurs.
Get a day planner and use it faithfully. If it's your google calendar, a day planner or an electronic gadget make sure you STICK with it! Keep all appointments and reminders in just one place. No more sticky notes with reminders and scribbled notes scattered around your desk, purse or stuck on the refrigerator.
Create a flexible "to do" list; the night before. As a mompreneur you have to allow yourself flexibility. Before children and before running a business you could order your To-Do list according to the hour:
- 8am devotion
- 1pm take dog to vet
- 3:15 dry cleaners
- 5:55 eat dinner
- 10pm bed
However, now you have to give yourself the freedom and flexibility to work out your schedule around the mishaps and time-consuming mistakes. Prioritize your day by coding the items as: Urgent, Need to Do Today, Can Do This Week. If you have children under the age of 4 count your blessings when you accomplish ANYTHING.
Read your To-Do list first thing in the morning. Don't touch a newspaper, open email or answer the phone until you see the road map for your day. During a certain period in my life I even read my To-Do list before I read my Bible. Everything was so hectic that I had to get a vision on my day and then ask God to order my steps.
No guilt as you end the day. At the end of the day, transfer the items remaining to the next day's list. NO GUILT and no pressure is allowed. Re-evaluate the items to determine what can be removed. If you have children under the age of 4 count your blessings when you accomplish ANYTHING.
Leave the house when you need to focus on a task that must be completetd. I determined to start this time management series for mompreneurs earlier this week. However, here I am a the end of the week and have not put out 1 blog post. I fed the children and waited until my husband came home so that I could come to this local Barnes & Noble to type this. It was 9pm before I left the house. Yet if I stayed home I would have been tempted to eat, sleep, call my sister or zone out in front of one of my husband's favorite tv shows.
Learn to Say "no" . Here is an excellent blog post that has some very effective phrases on how to say no. Your ability to say no to outside distractions-no matter how noble they may be-will propel you closer to your success. Read it. Learn it. Do it.
Momprenuer it's easy to stay on track once you commit to changing your daily habits. Just pick TWO of the above tips and put them into action and you should see more free time throughout your day.

What exactly IS koinonia? Well, it is from the Greek word that was used to describe New Testament church relationships. It is that fellowship, that communion of believers, that ideal unity that should exist when people are putting God first, others second, and self a distinct third. It is what happens when believers believe – really believe – that we are to love each other as Christ loved us. Koinonia is us being Christ's hands, and feet, and heart. Koinonia should be among our everyday blessings. Ephesians 4:32, "But be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another as God in Christ forgave you." That is the first step, today's step, towards Koinonia.
Koinonia is rare when it should be common, it is a mystery that should belong to our everyday experience, it is both an ideal and a reality. The link on the Everyday Blessings site that you have to "click" to get here, is labeled "Koinonia." I hope it is a good description of what this place is. I hope that here you will find encouragement, exhortation, challenge, and comfort -all stemming from the word of God. Click that little link often, hold me accountable! I hope to post some devotions here soon. I will think outloud here, and sometimes pray on paper (or screen, I suppose). There are oodles of cool features coming soon – from daily devotions in the works to special articles about missionaries and ministries! Watch this little spot – Koinonia is where you want to be!

As I was watching Criminal Minds the other day, and for whatever reason, this popped into my head... hope you enjoy!
'Penny?' Kevin called as he pushed open the door, even as he knocked.
Garcia looked up from the word puzzle she was working on, and gave Kevin a bright grin.
'Hey, what are you doing here?' she asked, getting up to great him.
'Can't a guy visit the prettiest girl in the world just because?' he asked, pulling her into his arms.
She narrowed her eyes, 'have you been taking lessons from Morgan?'
His eyes widened in surprised innocence, 'am I that obvious?'
'Just a little,' she replied, holding her thumb and forefinger a little ways apart. 'But that's okay, it makes you kind of adorkable.'
'Adorkable?' he repeated, sounding mildly offended.
'Adorable, in a dorky kind of way,' she offered, pulling him to the couch.
He was nodding in satisfaction, 'I can do adorkable.'
'Good, because, seriously, not that I'm complaining, but why are you here? Shouldn't you be working or something?'
'I couldn't wait.'
'Couldn't wait for what?'
'You are amazing, Pen, and I love everything about you,' he dropped down to one knee.
'Oh you better be doing what I think you're doing or else I'm going to call Morgan and Reid, and I don't know what Reid can do, but Morgan has a mean right hook, and he used to play football.'
Kevin looked a little nervous, but he didn't let that detour him, 'I know this isn't exactly the most romantic thing in the world, but I couldn't wait for that special moment because I'm nervous as hell but I need to know.'
'Need to know what?'
'Will you marry me?'
Garcia knew it was coming, but still her voice caught in her throat, and then he managed to pull the small velvet box from his pocket, and all she could do was nod.

What Size Air Conditioner Do I Need?
So how do you know which size air conditioner you need given the many different sizes available? It depends on the size of the room or rooms you are trying to cool. To start you need to measure the area that needs to be cooled and this will give you a good idea of the correct size air conditioner you will need. If you are looking for an air conditioner that will cool your entire house then please call us as there are many other factors needed to calculate this.
To calculate the size you need to multiply the length times the width of the room or rooms you are trying to cool. When trying to cool two adjacent areas determine each space separately and add the totals together. Then refer to our chart to the right to see how many BTU's your air conditioner needs in order to cool the room(s) properly.
Example 1: You want to cool just one room that is 10' long and 12' wide.
By looking at our chart you would need an air conditioner with 5,000 BTU's to cool this room of 120 sq. ft.
Example 2: You want to cool two adjacent rooms. Room #1 is 10' long and 11' feet and Room #2 is 8' wide and 10' long.
Room #1: 10 X 11 = 110
Room #2: 8 X 10 = 80
Total of both rooms is 190. You would need an air conditioner with 6,000 BTU's to cool these rooms.
Once you have determined the number of BTUs that will most efficiently cool your rooms, you need to make adjustments based on other factors as well:
- If the room is heavily shaded then reduce BTU's by 10%
- If the room is in a very sunny location then increase BTU's by 10%
- If more than two people are usually in the room(s), then add 600 BTUs for each additional person
- If this is to cool a kitchen area then you need to add 4,000 BTUs

King of the mountain
King of the Mountain: From Genocide to a Cycling Team in Rwanda
This is a wonderful little story. Inspirational. Uplifting. Enlightening. Makes you wonder at the dark depths of humanity, but also the hope, faith, and potential contained therein.
Cycling for Samuel is a way out of poverty for him and his family, but it is also a representation of how his country can, and is, healing from its terrible scars by working together for a common goal. Coming together in the name of humanity for the common good. To see to it that no one, no matter what tribe you belong to, is subject to abuse, injustice, or death.
That's what cycling means to Samuel.
It's what cycling should mean to everyone.
We talk altogether too much about the negatives that are mixed-up with cycling – the "war against motorists", the "war against cycling", the battle for or against infrastructure, drugs in racing, scoff-laws, poseurs, mamils (I detest the term), hipsters, lycra, entitlement, the fearsome danger to pedestrians… you get the idea.
Remember when you started cycling? When you first picked up a bike? When you first turned the pedals, without training wheels? When you rediscovered it as an adult? When you realized that you could get to work faster, happier, less stressed, with more money in your pocket and with a healthier body and mind? When you use it to connect with mates and overcome personal barriers?
That the barriers to cycling are nearly as low as simply using your own two feet? That anyone can do it, regardless of age, gender, class, or economic status? That it helps the environment, the economy, the sense of community, and congestion?
Yeah. That's what cycling is. Or that's what it should be about, anyway.
I know that the media has a thirst for bad news, a hunger for fear, and a taste for moral posturing, and that it's all because that's what sells. A good story is nice and all, but it doesn't hold our attention for very long.
I started this website because I wanted to help cycling help make our communities a better place, and sometimes I get tired about hearing everyone get all upset about this and that – that this sucks, and that person is to blame, that nothing is ever good enough, and that we demand better!
Yes. Obviously, these are real concerns and we do need to strive for the top. The best. The ideal. However, what Samuel and King of the Mountain reminds us is that it's all, in the end, really quite simple.
We're just people, every single one of us. Sometimes we forget that if you are Hutu or Tutsi, or a cyclist or motorist, we are all just people. "We work as a team and we work as brothers". I think we miss that way of thinking too often when we talk about cycling in the wider context of society.
"If we can come together as a team, we can come together as a country."
I know someone's going to give me a hard time about this, but if Rwanda can start to come together with genocide still playing on the inside of some people's eyelids, then surely cyclists and motorists and pedestrians and politicians and citizens can learn to come together as people to make the most of our infrastructure.

Stephen Foster was the first nationally recognized songwriter from the United States and is referred to as the "father of American music" and "the most famous songwriter of the nineteenth century." He popularized black minstrel and parlor music, writing more than 200 songs over the course of his career. Many of Stephen Foster's songs, including "Oh! Susanna", "Beautiful Dreamer", and "My Old Kentucky Home," feature in children's music curriculum to this day.
Early Life and Education
Stephen Collins Foster was born on July 4, 1826, at the family cottage near the Allegheny River in Lawrenceville, a city east of Pittsburg, Pennsylvania. His parent's William B. Foster and Eliza Tomlinson bore ten children in total, but he became the youngest when his one younger sibling died. He received private tutoring from a young age and then entered into other private schools in Pennsylvania.
Foster expressed an interest in music from a young age.[1] He taught himself how to play the violin, guitar, piano, clarinet, and flute. He learned from a music dealer from Germany, but now located in Pittsburg named Henry Kleber. Kleber sold instruments along with being a conductor, accompanist, and songwriter. [2]
Foster attended Jefferson College, now Washington and Jefferson College, in Canonsburg, Pennsylvania. Although he did not pay for tuition out of pocket, he had very little money to spend. He went on a trip to Pittsburg with fellow student and never returned to university. [3]
Influences and Musical CareerThe parlor ballads of William Dempster and Henry Russell and songs from blackface minstrel performances experienced by Stephen Foster in his youth greatly influenced his later music.
Stephen Foster's musical talent emerged at a young age.
Foster first worked in Cincinnati, Ohio for Dunning, his brother's steamship company as a bookkeeper from 1846-1849. His parents and older siblings preferred Foster to enter into a normal life within an established industry, but he continued his musical interests and wrote his instant hit, "Susanna" (now known as "Oh! Susanna). The California Gold Rush between 1848 and 1849 turned this song into their anthem. He soon signed a contract with Firth, Pond, & Co., a group of publishers from New York, in 1849. He returned to Pittsburg the following year and married Jane Denny McDowell. Despite his family's disapproval, Foster began writing songs professionally and continued to do so until his death.[4]
By this time, Foster personally composed 12 songs. He and Jane produced a daughter named Marion Foster and they took a month-long, late honeymoon on a steamship to New Orleans. He moved to New York in 1853 to work more closely with his publishers. Jane relocated to Hoboken, New Jersey about a year later before they both returned to Pittsburg near the end of 1854. The family lived with Foster's parents at first, but moved through several boarding homes after his parent's died in 1855. [5]
Songs of Stephen Foster
In January 1854, Stephen Foster collected and produced 73 of melodies written by himself and other composers into an instrumental arrangement of solos, duets, trios, and quartets for dancing in social settings. He focused more on parlor ballads the same year and wrote "Jeanie with the Light Brown Hair" for his wife and "Hard Times Come Again No More" in 1854, "Come Where My Love Lies Dreaming" and his one song about temperance "Comrades Fill No Glass for Me" in 1855, and "Gentle Annie" in 1856. "Beautiful Dreamer" was one of his most famous songs, other than "Oh! Susanna." Although written in 1862, it was not published until after he died.
Many of Foster's songs appropriated black minstrel music. His 1848 song, "Nelly was a Lady," was the first occasion of a white author depicting a black couple as loving and faithful and emphasized referring to the wife as "lady." He wrote many of his early minstrel songs with a dialect and other vernacular specificities, but stopped by the early 1850s. He instead took on a more parlor ballad style and published "My Old Kentucky Home, Good-night!" and "Old Dog Tray" in 1853.
Later he wrote more jovial tunes that combined instrumentals with folk songs, including, Nelly Bly", "Angelina Baker", and "Camptown Races" in 1850 and "Ring, Ring de Banjo! in 1851. Other minstrel songs include "Old Folks at Home" and "Oh! Boys, carry me 'long" in 1851, and "Massa's in de Cold Ground" in 1852.
Success and DeathStephen Foster's parents did not need to worry about Foster being successful. He managed to not only succeed, but achieve national fame in a nonexistent music industry. Especially considering it would be another 13 years after his death before the invention of sound recording and another 66 years for the radio.
Stephen Foster's relatable and memorable songs continue to endure almost 200 years after first being written.
Foster contracted a fever while in the Bowery Hotel on January 10, 1864. In his weakened state, he fell and severed his neck. George Cooper discovered him naked in a pool of his own blood. Foster whispered, "I'm done for," and then asked Cooper for a drink. He died on January 13, 1864, in Bellevue Hospital with only 38 cents in a leather purse and a note in his pocket that read, "dear friends and gentle hearts."[7] Foster is buried next to his parents in Allegheny Cemetery in Pittsburg, Pennsylvania.[8]

Perfect Peace
I fell in love and have worn these earrings with every thing since they arrived. They are a little raw and weighty, obviously handmade and eyecatching even within my very long curly white hair. They don't catch and pull my curls like so many earrings do. Channeling peace every time I wear them, I get compliments and recommend Soul Flower at least once a week to someone!
