Ken Kolodner,
Walking Stones: A Celtic Sojourn
(Dorian, 1997)
Ken Kolodner,
Walking Stones: Music
from A Celtic Sojourn
for Hammered Dulcimer
(Mel Bay, 2001)
Walking Stones is a delightful collection of 31 traditional Celtic tunes not only from Ireland, but also Scotland, Quebec, the Shetlands, Canada and America. Hammered dulcimer player Ken Kolodner enlists the help of fiddler Laura Risk and guitarist Robin Bullock for this musical journey through the lands of Celtic music.
The hammered dulcimer is a stringed instrument with a unique sound that lends itself nicely to the traditional Celtic tunes and gives them new life.
Although it is hard to keep still, Walking Stones is a nice CD for sitting back to relax -- with or without the pint -- or for a gathering. Given Dorian Record's format of recording the music with the dynamics left intact (not mucking with the volume), listening to Walking Stones is almost like being there.
Tracks include Kolodner's original composition, "Caspian Lake," as well as "The Queen's Polka/The Bornish Polka," "The Bee's Wing Hornpipe," "Kevin Keegan's Waltz," "The Green Gates/Tam Lin/The Silver Spire" and "Carolan's Draught."
This album is a must-have for any traditional Celtic music fan or hammered dulcimer enthusiast.
by Sherrill Fulghum
(Read on for Jamie O'Brien's detailed review of this CD as well as its companion book.)
In any conversation about hammered dulcimer players, the name Ken Kolodner has to feature prominently. He is one of a select group that has taken the dulcimer to new heights, reestablishing the long-out-of-favor instrument to its rightful, legitimate place. It combines melody with rhythm; it is perfect as a solo instrument, but also in an ensemble; and, as the name suggests, it sounds sweet.
As with Bela Fleck and the banjo or Eileen Ivers and the fiddle, Kolodner succeeds in applying the dulcimer to exciting new situations. He plays Celtic music, but the boundaries at times are blurred as he introduces unexpected elements and interpretations. He plays Celtic music in his own distinctive style.
The album Walking Stones has long been a favorite of mine, so the notation of the tracks proves a welcome addition to my sheet music collection, hopefully providing clues to awkward passages and hints on ornamentation and more. As a bad reader of music, I always have a handicap with the written note. But as a guitarist who enjoys playing dulcimer for relaxation and pleasure, application and dedication is no problem.
Firstly, the book should be used in conjunction with the album, which features Kolodner along with fiddler Laura Risk and guitarist Robin Bullock. That indeed is a pleasing introduction as the trio are tight in their playing, inventive in their arrangements and faithful to the spirit of the music. And the album is thoughtfully catalogued by track as well as by tune.
(You want to learn "Tam Lin"? Put track 25 on repeat. You want to hear it in context or learn the turnovers? Play track 24 and you hear the complete set with "The Green Gates/Tam Lin/The Silver Spire.")
The album, and therefore the book, contains a healthy selection of Irish and Scottish tunes, with a sprinkling of Quebecois, Shetland and O'Carolan pieces and some of Kolodner's own compositions. The selection ranges from driving reels to dancing polkas, from swirling waltzes to hoppity hornpipes. (Interestingly, only one set of jigs is featured.) There are commonly found tunes (like "Home Ruler" and "Reel Beatrice") along with rarities (like "Kevin Keegan's Waltz" and "Richard Dwyer's"). Walking Stones is a tremendous album.
Now for the book.
As traditional music, it should really be heard and played, rather than read. The essence of the style cannot truly be captured on paper. And Kolodner acknowledges this as he explains why he has transcribed only simple melodic lines along with suggested accompanying chords. This gives a visual advantage to those not fluent in reading music. The pages are not scarily "covered with notes."
In fact, the layout of the book is to be recommended. Tunes fit comfortably onto sometimes four lines and never on more than a whole page. Accordingly, approaching a new tune is less than a monumental task. In fact, the three minutes it took this near-dyslexic music reader to stumble through the first tune, "Father Kelly's," meant that I was close to sight-reading a tune for the first time in my life.
OK, it was the basic tune, but I was playing it -- and pretty quickly, I was playing it fluently along with the album. Since then, I've returned to it a number of times and find that I am automatically embellishing the piece. "Father Kelly" (and Ken Kolodner) would be proud of me.
By the end of my first session, I was actually playing the first set from the album, almost up to speed. Kolodner uses great skill in putting down the bare bones of the melody, thereby allowing the reader/player to concentrate on the ornamentation and stylistic approach once the tune is properly in the head.
All the pieces are strongly melodious, atmospheric and involving. It's easy to delve into the character of the tunes to find more ways of expressing the emotions. Instead of trying to lead, Kolodner cleverly suggests the way to go.
Only one tune really created problems -- "The Border Crossing," which uses 6/8, 4/4, 7/8 and 3/4 timing. (It also seems to be a crooked tune and it gives me nightmares.) And the "Rakes of Kildare" set is the only one that necessitates a turning of the page, which made it difficult to play along with the CD.
But those two things apart, I found the book has a refreshing approach to the music. On the one hand it instructs, but on the other it encourages. It is a way of learning traditional music when no teacher is present, but it does not leave you dependent on the written note. This is especially true when you use the book in conjunction with the album.

A Look at the Flamingo Crossings Hotels Near Disney World
by Steve Bloom on February 24, 2016
Flamingo Crossings is an area found at the intersection of State Road 429 and Western Way, just outside the western border of Walt Disney World. The shopping, dining, and hotel complex was announced way back in 2007, but the great recession put the project into hibernation. Now that it is finally awakening, the SpringHill Suites and TownPlace Suites (both operated by Marriott) are the first structures at Flamingo Crossings.
Currently, route 429 and Western Way are underutilized motorways so, with a car, it is relatively easy to get from Flamingo Crossings to anywhere on Disney property.

Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Rye is the latest Wild Turkey creation, only just released in September 2015. It is a 104 proof (52% abv), single-barrel rye whiskey. While there is no age statement found on the bottle, it is bottled at a higher proof than Russell's Reserve 6 Year Old Rye.
In order to be labeled an American rye whiskey there needs to be at least 51% of rye in the mix. Because rye is a more expensive and particularly challenging grain to use, most Kentucky rye whiskeys on the market hit pretty close to that number. However, Wild Turkey (who often keeps its precise mash bills on the hush-hush), makes rye the focus of the whiskey by putting the rye content up in the 70 percentiles in comparison to other Kentucky ryes that are usually down in the 50s.
Against this, the famous Midwest Grain Products (MGP) rye whiskey, that serve as the source for so many rye whiskeys on the market today, is 95% rye.
For Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Rye father and son Master Distillers Jimmy and Eddie Russell strategically chose only the best barrels from the most prime locations of their warehouses, which would be levels 3 to 5. These levels are what are known as the "Center Cut," because they have less variation than the upper and lower levels.
That predictability is about water evaporation rather than Angel's Share. Water molecules are smaller than alcohol molecules, so it is easier for them to escape through the barrel. The top of a warehouse is usually very hot and dry, so the water molecules escape much faster which means the barrels at the top can mature at an accelerated pace. At the same time, the bottom of a warehouse is often moist and cooler, meaning that those same small water molecules can also enter the barrel from the surrounding moisture and that drives the proof down in those barrels. Thus, barrels at the bottom of a warehouse will mature at a slower pace. This is why knowing the warehouses of your favorite distillery helps in understanding just what goes into the bottle.
The Bourbon
I am a bourbon drinker, and a Wild Turkey fan in particular, and my experiences with rye whiskeys (yes, even Wild Turkey Rye) have never been, well let's just say "smooth." I had not found one that did not leave that bristly feeling in my throat, that is until now. The rye grain in this whiskey has been expressed superbly.
Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Rye is not chilled-filtered in order to offer all the richness rye provides. The color is an intense amber copper with a nose that releases a heady sense of spicy pepper, vanilla, oak tones and tobacco.
The first burst of flavor is light, spicy, and (to my shock and delight) smooth. The rye does deepen in the journey with the spicy pepper flavors enhancing it, but it continues to a long, flavorful, fresh finish that makes it easy to drink. Adding a touch of water to the rye enhances the freshness and brings out the citrus tones I had never before been able to grasp in other Wild Turkey products. Russell's Reserve Single Barrel Rye is a delightful balance of what I, as a bourbon lover, consider rye should taste like.
This will now be the rye to which I compare all other ryes.
The Price
$60 for a 750 ml bottle.

Top 10 DIY Hacks For Your Tailgate
With football season in full swing, we decided to put together a list of must know hacks to take your tailgating to the next level.
1.) Toolbox BBQ Kit
This ensures that you don't forget something. We've all been there: You're on your way to the stadium when halfway down the road you realize you forgot something. By packing your absolute must-haves in a toolbox and checking it the night before, you won't have to worry about turning around and not getting your lucky parking spot at the stadium. Make sure the iGrill2 or iGrillmini is in there!
2.) Use A Cooler As A Warming Station
You can warm up food with a cooler! That's right, by using a traditional rectangular cooler, aluminum foil, and lining the bottom with hot bricks, you can easily heat up food within 10 minutes.
3.) Pre-Pack Toppings The Night Before
Nothing is worse than setting everything up and then having to slice tomatoes, onions and lettuce to use as toppings. Save yourself some time and prepare the night before. You can store your toppings in a buffet style tray and remove the top once you're ready to serve!
4.) Hang Paper Towels
Paper towels always seem to fall on the ground or get misplaced when you're tailgating. Keep track of them by taking a bungee cord and securing them to your pop-up tent.
5.) Open Your Drink With Your Car Door
You forgot the bottle opener and now the tailgate is ruined! Wrong! You can actually use your car door latch to open your favorite beverage.
6.) Six-Pack Condiment Carrier
Don't throw away that six-pack container! Instead, you can repurpose them to carry all of your condiments or your extra iGrill probes. That way you will never misplace the mustard ever again. You can even paint or decorate them to match your team's colors!
7.) Hand Washing Station
Nobody wants to eat food with dirty hands. Repurpose an old detergent can as a faucet, and you can wash your hands anywhere.
8.) Paint Your Cooler
A lot of people paint themselves for the big game. Why not paint your cooler as well? You can show off your team pride and personalize it at the same time. You also wouldn't have to worry about mixing up coolers ever again!
9.) Tic Tac Spice Containers
Don't bring the entire spice rack to the game. Take the top spices you will be using and pour them into separate tic tac containers. You can store them in the toolbox and never worry about forgetting the pepper.
10.) Easy Light Fire Starter
Lighting a charcoal grill can be difficult at times. A quick and easy way to light the grill is to place coals inside an empty egg carton. All you have to do is light the egg carton and the coals will catch fire shortly after.
Have a great weekend and good luck to your team!

Animal Bioenergetic Healing Session
Benefits of a Bioenergetic Healing session for your animal companion are endless! It can effectively assist your pets with behavioral issues, physical ailments, and clear emotions and traumas rooted in their past experiences.
Just as we feel more content in a well balanced space, our animal companions, who share our needs and desires, want to feel in balance. They feel the emotional and physical stresses, changes and shifts in their environment.
Our animals are so highly intuitive and sensitive to energetic changes that they feel imbalances even more acutely than people. This can, in turn, cause them to feel anxiety and depression which can lead to the same health issues that stress causes in people.
Animals instinctively relax into the sessions and trust the flow of the healing energy. Hence, the sessions tend to be very productive since there is less resistance. After a session, they typically feel calmer and more peaceful, connected and grounded. There is no placebo effect with animals, making the positive changes you see in them even more profound.
You'll find Tammy to be an empathetic, understanding guide to assist you and your pets through difficult emotional situations.
One-Hour (telephone) Bioenergy Healing Session $100 -150 (sliding scale) Only one animal per session.
Package of Four One-Hour (telephone) Bioenergy Healing Sessions $375 (Must be pre-paid and used by 10 months from first appt.)
Thirty Minute Consultation about your animal(s) $80
*24 Hour Cancellation Required for All Appointments
Pay online here.
Disclaimer: Bioenergetic Healing should never be used as a substitute for medical care and advice. Always consult a Veterinarian for any concerns regarding your animal companions' well-being.
Speaking Engagements & Workshops
(call for pricing)
Tammy Billups is a specialist on the animal-human relationship and has been speaking and facilitating workshops to raise awareness and consciousness about animals' emotional well-being since 2008. She is engaging, compassionate, and has endless examples to share with audiences to help them to better understand their animal companions. Depending on group size, timing and client preference, she is also open to answer animal related questions.
She especially loves speaking to rescue organization volunteer groups and to raise their awareness to a new level of self-care and understanding of the higher purpose of each animals journey. Beyond the Fur book signing events are at no charge. Tammy will donate a percentage of all book sales to a no-kill animal organization.

Golden Slipper placegetter Sweet Idea is one of just eleven fillies included in the nominations for the Silver Shadow Stakes (1200m) at Warwick Farm on Saturday.
The Snitzel three-year-old has not been seen at the races since her third place finish behind stablemate Overreach at the end of her lengthy juvenile campaign in the Group 1 Golden Slipper (1200m) at Rosehill Gardens in April.
Sweet Idea began her racing career last October with a win in the TAB Sprint Plate (1000m) at Randwick and finished second behind Criterion in the Lidoran Group Plate (1100m) at Randwick in November.
She was taken to Queensland to embark on a Magic Millions campaign and finished second in both the Group 3 B.J. McLachlan Stakes (1200m) at Doomben and the Magic Millions Classic (1200m) at the Gold Coast – less than half a length behind winner Real Surreal.
After a brief freshen-up Sweet Idea returned to the races with a narrow victory in the Group 2 Silver Slipper Stakes (1100m) at Randwick in March before producing another impressive performance in the Golden Slipper.
Another classy filly that is set to resume in the Silver Shadow Stakes is Bjorn Baker-trained Twilight Royale who recorded three wins from five starts as a two-year-old.
The daughter of Testa Rossa won at Warwick Farm on debut and finished her autumn campaign with back-to-back wins in the Inglis Premier (1200m) at Mornington and the Group 2 Sires Produce Stakes (1400m) at Flemington.
The three-year-old has impressed since returning to work for this preparation, winning a barrier trial over 900 metres at Rosehill on August 5 before being given a quiet trial behind Diamond Oasis and Champollion over 800 metres at Warwick Farm last Friday.
The Silver Shadow will be an early lead-up race to the Thousand Guineas (1600m) with both Sweet Idea and Twilight Royale, as well as other Silver Shadow nominees Greytfilly, Montsegur and Twice Shy, nominated for the Group 1 race that will be held at Caulfield on October 16.

Boynton Beach, FL (PressExposure) May 21, 2009 -- Horatio Chiorean, owner of Dryer Vent Wizard of Palm Beach and Broward County, Florida, recently spoke to first time home buyers about preventative maintenance on washers and dryers. Horatio said, âOver 15,000 clothes dryer fires are reported each year, causing injury, death and loss of homes. When a water hose on your washing machine bursts, it can result in thousands of dollars in water damages.â
Horatio told the group to replace old washer hoses with new steel braided hoses and to clean the filters. âThe washer is the easiest one to handle. The dryer is more involved; most average homeowners can do some maintenance on their own, but a professional dryer vent cleaning and repair specialist is recommended for servicing the dryer.â
Though Horatio recommends professional service for the dryer, he did offer some tips for those who insist on doing it themselves. âI would rather provide some tips than have nothing done to prevent a dryer fire,â said Horatio. âThere are tools that homeowners can buy from the hardware or home improvement store to use for removing lint build-up from the dryer vent and duct system. A rotary tool can be attached to a drill to loosen the lint, and then use a shop vac to blow out the ducts.â
Horatio also told the group to take the dryer apart, remove the drum and clean inside and around the motor. âWhile you have the dryer disassembled, check the bearings and idler pulley for wear. Replace if necessary.â
Horatio finished by saying, âAppliance maintenance in the laundry room will prevent fire and water damage to your home. I recommend a professional dryer vent inspection and cleaning at least once a year. We have the necessary tools and knowledge to make sure your dryer is operating safely and efficiently.â
Horatio Chiorean is the owner/operator of Dryer Vent Wizard; he provides affordable dryer vent cleaning, repairs and installation while explaining to his customers exactly what he is doing and why. Horatio offers his clients good tips for maintaining their dryer vent system between his annual visits.

Shop For TiresBack To Tire Brands
Jack's Tire Sales & Service is proud to offer Kelly tires to South Beloit, IL, Roscoe, IL, and Rockton, IL at some of the lowest prices around. Jack's Tire Sales & Service helps our customers find the right Kelly tire for your car or truck at the price that fits your budget. Give us a call at (815) 389-9849 today if you need help in finding the right Kelly tires for your car. Remember Jack's Tire Sales & Service is the number one Kelly tire dealer in South Beloit, Illinois.
Kelly-Springfield Tire & Rubber Company has had a long and interesting history, starting with the founding in 1894 by Edwin Kelly. The company started by using partner, Arthur Grant's blueprint to manufacture the first successful carriage tire. Many companies tried to manufacture similar products, but none were able to reach the success of Grants design using wires to hold the tire on the wheel. In 1903, Firestone Tire & Rubber Co., B.F. Goodrich Co., the Goodyear Tire & Rubber Co., and dozens of other tire manufacturers purchased the license to start producing Grant's patent. The Great Depression was extremely hard to the Kelly-Springfield Tire & Rubber Company, dropping the sales 54% between 1929 and 1933. Edmund Burke saved the company from bankruptcy, reorganized the company, and sold them to Goodyear Tire & Rubber Company. Presently, Kelly manufacturing plants use the philosophy "first class or scrap" mentality. The company believes that if the tire is not the absolute best, it should be "scrapped" so that customers do not experience anything but the best. Today, the slogan used is "A good deal on a great tire."
The Navigator Gold is one of Kelly Tire's most popular tires. Navigator Gold is a smooth, quiet ride in all four seasons. A combination of isolated and interlocked tread elements are featured in the tire to enhance traction and handling in wet and dry conditions. To give the tire a smooth and quiet, comfortable ride, enhanced rubber distribution combined with alternating shoulder slots were incorporated in the design.
For light Trucks, the Safari Trex offers a premium all-terrain tire that has even-wearing tread, a quiet ride, and extreme ride comfort. The Safari Trex features many break through technologies including: an elongated rib and multi-pitch design, a unique tread pattern, element geometry, below-surface geometry and an enhanced cavity shape. For decreased noise, the elongated rib and multi-pitch tread design were used. The tread pattern and element geometry give the tire additional traction for deep snow and mud, but do not contribute to added tire noise. To keep rocks from penetrating the tread grooves, below-surface geometry was added to the design. An enhanced cavity shape maintains rectangular footprint shape to allow for even tread-wear giving the tire a longer life.
For an exceptional high-performance, all –season tire, chose the Charger GT. This tire has a sport-derived tread pattern that not only has a sporty appearance, but also increased handling. Twin circumferential grooves are featured to improve wet traction and handling. The Charger GT offers a 50,000-mile limited tread wear warranty guaranteeing a quality product.

Gangster brothers 'had access to machetes and samurai swords in drugs empire'
AN EX-SOLDIER and his brother who bragged of their massive drugs empire allegedly had access to a cache of samurai swords, machetes and guns.
Peter Clarke, 37 and his brother Stephen, 48, reportedly shipped cocaine and cannabis from Merseyside to Northern Ireland as part of their booming drugs network.
The brothers were allegedly caught boasting about hiding crime cash to keep cops off the scent, a court heard.
The 37-year-old, who had an exemplary army record, is said to have worked with his hefty security boss brother to orchestrate their empire.
The pair, who allegedly had access to a throve of weapons including guns, machetes and samurai swords, were jailed for 26-and-a-half-years in November 2013.
Now, prosecutors are going after the pair's £2million "dirty" fortune which they built up during the height of their tyranny with enemies were threatened with violence.
At Preston Crown Court, Nick Johnson, QC, said Stephen Clarke and his brother - together with their wives Rachel and Maria, had a wealth of "hidden assets".
Mr Johnson revealed a series of the former soldier's the conversations - recorded on secret police recording devices- which allegedly exposed the family's true fortune.
One recording heard him boast of registering his home, in Banks, near Southport, in his wife Rachel's name.
That was "just in case the f****** bizzies take it off me," the device picked up - a conversation described as "illuminating" by Mr Johnson.
The probe also picked up a chat where Clarke recalled being owed £100,000 by a man called Dave and "hoping to recover" £140,000 from "Belly".
Mr Johnson said Belly was "someone with the surname Bell, who is clearly a drug dealer from Manchester".
He also told of connections between 18-stone hardman Stephen and Masterchef TV star Jay Tinker, who were allegedly recorded talking together about Ecstasy.
Mr Tinker was not arrested in relation to the investigation or charged with any offences.
During court, Mr Johnson described the volume of paperwork in the case as "huge".
"It's perfectly obvious Stephen has a very substantial resource over and above what he has funded through various companies to give himself an aura of legitimacy."Nick Johnson, QC
He told the court: "One of the striking features is despite several and high-value interceptions, this [drugs] conspiracy [stopping] doesn't seem to have hit them at all.
"Business has continued as usual.
"That denotes a high level of money in the background, none of which is running through any of these companies.
"It's perfectly obvious Stephen has a very substantial resource over and above what he has funded through various companies to give himself an aura of legitimacy.
"You couldn't get more of a case of hidden assets than this one.
"It would be perverse to come to any other conclusion than he has got assets now."
He also added: "Putting it in a nutshell, the sums just don't add up."
Mr Johnson allegedly listed a host of regular payments into bank accounts, some of them totalling £100,000 for businesses linked to the Clarkes, one named as Aztec Securities and another called Leisure Guard Services.
They were "all companies which, on the face of it, weren't returning accounts to Companies House, or there's enough to suggest there is something untoward going on".
Mr Johnson added: "It's obvious Stephen Clarke had ready access to a large amount of cash for which he has never explained."
The Clarke brothers, who used splash out on trips to Dubai and America, both face further time in prison if they fail to pay possible confiscation orders.

No parabens, sulfates or fragrance.
Ingredients: Witch Hazel, Apple Cider Vinegar, Himalayan Sea Salt, White Willow Bark, Non-nano Zinc Oxide, Essential Oil.

It is particularly beneficial for oil and problem skin through its more gentle properties.
Tea Tree Oil is best known as a very powerful immune stimulant. It can help to fight all three categories of infectious organisms (bacteria, fungi, and viruses) and has been used to combat acne.
White Willow Bark's main active ingredient, salicin, was identified and resulted in the creation of the pain killer acetylsalicylic acid (ASA) years later. White Willow Bark Extract is used to treat acne, control sebum, as an astringent and as an exfoliant. White Willow Bark Extract is also believed to be an effective anti-bacterial agent.

Dear Expat,
Let's be honest. You are weird. No offense.
It's not a bad thing. You're just — what's that word? — odd. No matter where in the world you go, you don't quite fit. You're a foreigner where you live and a visitor where you're from.
You're weird. Just own it.
There is a parallel truth that you should know about. It's not at all separate from your weirdness. In contrast it actually works in perfect tandem. No matter how odd you feel — how isolated from the regulars — how awkward or confident — how inferior or superior — how irritated or excited — how incompetent or smooth — how close to the edge of the cliff or on top of the mountain you are . . .
It's true. Write it down. Soak in it. No matter what's going on inside of you — you are far from alone.
The numbers don't lie . . .
According to the U.N. (who make a it a point to know things like this) there are roughly 232 million earthlings who live outside of their home country. That means if expats were to declare themselves a sovereign state they would instantly knock off Brazil for the fifth most populated nation in the world.
Brazil would be ticked.
First major conflict. Way to go Expats.
Point is this. There are many more like you. Many.
They're everywhere. IN every country and FROM every country — and were we to actually form a country of our own it would be the most politically, ethnically, racially, religiously, economically, educationally and linguistically diverse that the world has ever seen — but we would be united by one feature — we are all outsiders. Different — but far from alone.
If only numbers did the trick, right?
If knowing that there are millions more like you out there . . . somewhere in the distance . . . convinced you that you're normal, then we could also solve loneliness with overpopulation — and this would be the best blog post EVER.
If you're like me however (and the numbers suggest that you are) feeling normal is not about them . . . it's about you.
So let's talk about you . . .
Why don't we start with your body just to keep it awkward?
If you got fatter when you became an expat . . . you're normal. It's a shocker to a lot of us who anticipated our waistline might go the other direction when we stepped away from the comforts of home and the junk food that came with it but transition seeks familiar. If the only "normal" food you can find is fat and greasy (golden arches come to mind in my case) then guess what else turns fat and greasy. You do. Partner that with the fact that it may be harder to exercise and . . . yeah . . . you're normal.
Interesting to note . . . if you got skinnier when you became an expat . . . you are also normal. If you eat better and exercise more you are not alone. If you got sick — normal. If you started getting headaches or nosebleeds — If you find yourself needing more sleep — If your skin is dry and scaly or your face breaks out like you were 14 again — You are normal.
AND — (can we be blunt here?) if your bowels have been doing some funky things . . . trust me . . . you are NOT alone.
When everything around you changes — your body can't pretend that it hasn't. Whatever it is, you are quite likely to be normal.
How about your attitude?
Is it not the one you came in with? Not what you hoped it would be at this point?
Did your wide-eyed, thrill seeking fascination with your host culture morph somewhere along the line into irritation, or disgust, or boredom, or arrogance, or indifference or downright anger? Do the little things that you used to take pictures of and put on Facebook annoy the pot out of you now?
Did you have high aspirations of being a better expat than you're turning out to be? Thought you would speak more language by now? Have more local friends? Grasp more culture? Explore more?
Have you ever yelled at someone who doesn't speak your language . . . in your language?
Congratulations. You are normal. Textbook even.
Piggy backing off of that . . .
When did you get so judgy? Whenever it was, you are not the only one.
It's pretty common (if not inevitable) to go through a stage of enlightenment as an expat. It's not so much a spiritual awakening as it is a personal discovery that everyone else is wrong . . . and you could fix them if they would only listen.
- The culture around you may be thousands of years old but you could teach them so much about so many things.
- The team that you are working with could run much smoother if they would listen to your ideas.
- The other expats are SO judgmental (pause to let that sink in).
- Your friends back home just don't get it.
Nothing makes you feel more isolated than being right. Especially when EVERYONE else is wrong.
If that strikes a chord — guess what? (see the title of this post)
Let's talk about home . . .
Do you miss home even when you go home? Have you wrestled with what "home" even means? Do you put the word "home" in quotation marks (either in writing or with your fingers)? Did you go "home" and discover that it changed (and so did you)? Do you wonder if you could ever go home again? Do you know that you couldn't?
Have you not left home for two weeks because you have been binge watching 90's sitcoms?
Say it with me . . . You are normal.
Does none of this apply to you?
Maybe you're THAT one. The one who loves it all, all the time. The one who feels untouched by culture shock and sees every day as a new adventure — every challenge as a opportunity for growth. You love learning language and making friends and sometimes it doesn't make sense why other expats struggle so much.
Ready for an ironic twist?
You may be THAT one . . . but you are not the ONLY one. I've seen you before and you're actually very normal.
So there.
There is SO much more that is normal about you . . .
I could bust the internet writing about the things that make you normal but I hope you're starting to get the point.
- If you're an expat parent and you think you're breaking your children — you are normal.
- If you're married and it feels like you're never on the same page as your spouse — you are normal.
- If you feel like your host culture thinks you're a superstar — you are normal.
- If you recently discovered that, actually, they don't — you are normal.
- If you pretend to know more language than you do — you are normal.
- If you laugh at your hosts but get mad when people back home do — you are normal.
- If you're a bumbling, homesick, culturally baffled, communicationally challenged, adventurer who is slowly learning how to love something deeply that drives you insane — you are 1000% normal.
Lest we confuse normal . . .
You are NORMAL. Unfortunately that doesn't automatically make you right . . . or good . . . or less toxic to your host country . . . or your team . . . or your family. Just because a lot of expats gain weight and stop exercising when they move abroad doesn't make it healthy.
Sometimes (but not always) "normal" isn't such a great thing.
Fight the urge to justify bad habits or bad behavior with your normalcy. On the contrary, find grace in being normal that gives you the space to move towards something better. You're not the only expat with issues. We've all got issues. Cut yourself some slack and while your cutting don't forget to cut off some healthy chunks for the people around you.
They need it.
So do you.
What would it look like for you to go beyond normal? Better than normal? Abnormal in a beautiful way?
I'll tell you what it would look like.
It would look weird . . . and wonderful.
Own that.
What else have you discovered makes you a normal expat? Comment below so the rest of us don't feel so off.
Wondering if you're actually normal? Take the leap and ask below. I'm betting you're pleasantly surprised.
Know an expat who is feeling weird in a bad way? (translation — "know an expat?") Please share this with them.

Georgia Secretary of State Election Results.
Congratulations Team Barnes, Team Porter, Team Hodges for decisive wins!
Congratulations to Georganna Sinkfield for coming up from behind (thanks to Metro voters). Get ready for the runoff between Gail Buckner & Georganna Sinkfield.
Looks like we may have a recount in the Commisioner of Labor race on the Democratic side.
Congratulations to Vincent Fort & Rashad Taylor on their wins, too!
On a personal note: thank you Fulton County voters. I was re-elected to the Fulton County Democratic Committee!
What's on your mind this morning?
51 Responses to Congratulations Democrats!
siri says:
AJC's elections results page is reporting Horacena Tate won her primary with 100% of the vote, while I can think of at least two people who voted for her opponent.
JerryT says:
The SoS page shows 0 votes for Adams.
Too bad there are no actual ballots to go back and look at.
My developing theory is that some people like not having paper ballots because paper ballots are "messy". You can count paper ballots ten times and get ten different results because you might lose one, or accidentally count one twice, or smudge one or whatever.
They know the machines might not be accurate, but they are consistent. The original result will never change. It can't. And that is, in a way, very satisfying. It gives the illusion of order and control.
Jen B. says:
That's crazy. There's no way Adams didn't receive a single vote. Surely, Adams voted for himself.
siri says:
Well my household contributed two more votes his way. While I'm sure Tate took a sizable majority, the SOS needs to post something close to legitimate with regards to the results.
When the early returns were coming in on the Fulton Elections page Mr Adams wasn't even listed. I also noticed that Jerry and my vote counts went up and down during the evening. It was all a little odd.
Ed says:
16 hundred or so people voted for me. Kind of weird and awesome at the same time.
Mel says:
I think I owe Chris a beer. Poor RJ tanked.
Sara says:
Can we vote in the Republican runoff if we voted in the Dem primary? I'd love to cast votes for Deal and Olens if I can.
Melb says:
Jen B. says:
This is EXACTLY why Tony voted in the Republican primary. He knew the Governor's race would go to runoff.
Sara says:
Now I'm wishing I had too. If I'd known Catherine and Jerry would win in blowouts, I would have pulled an R ballot.
Jason says:
Think Coleman will call for recount? The machines should pop out the same numbers. Only mail in ballots could conceivably change.
Bernita says:
well I hope for the sake of "Party Unity" he doesn't ask for a recall.
I am sure if Coleman won by that small of a margin Hicks would call for a recount. Come on now. : ) I agree with you though Bernita we need some party unity. I for one am excited about some of our chances in November. But for some reason I just can't get on the Barnes bandwagon. Maybe it will change. We'll see. I still think we had a really good chance with Poythress. I had three very conservative voters msg me on facebook today saying that is Poythress would have won they would have voted for him. They, like many conservative voters in our state, do not like "Atlanta Politicians."
Bernita says:
well the conservative voters sure proved that theory wrong since they voted for Ms. Atlanta politician herself, Karen Handel. Look at how many counties outside Metro Atlanta that Handel won – http://www.ajc.com/news/20102010-gubernatorial-primary-results-574951.html
She won because she is a woman. I am just saying listen to someone that doesn't live in Atlanta and is around people not from Atlanta or around politicos all the time.
Keith says:
I'm from outside of Atlanta. I'm down in Valdosta with friends and family all over SW GA. I say it is all about name recognition. If you promote the outside Atlanta mentality, then you might get somewhere but otherwise average voters just vote and I don't think we'll ever understand how they decide (McCracken and Joe Martin come to mind). I think the Palin endorsement seriously helped her in rural GA. Unfortunately, most of the people I know down here are conservative and they didn't know who they were voting for until the last minute. On the Dem side, look at DuBose. He went all over the state telling people he was from outside Atlanta and Barnes still pulled impressive numbers from all over.
My theory on the McCracken and Martin races is ballot placement. Martin was choice "B" and after talking with people around VSU, they say if they don't know who to vote for they will usually pick B in a three person race. That gives me hope – I'm "B" in the city council race in November.
I call BS on that, Branden. If conservatives liked Poythress so much, and don't like "Atlanta Politicians" why didn't these conservatives crossover and vote for Poythress? Beside, Poythress is no conservative. The GOP machine would have made sure we knew that before November.
Because you can't pull a Democratic and Republican card when you vote, DUH! There not going to forfeit their right to vote for other Republicans. Do you think they would really give up their chance to vote for Austin Scott and Mike Keown? And I haven't said that Conservatives love him "so much." I have said that he would have a better chance of beating a Republican and that a few voters have messaged me on facebook saying that if he would have won the primary they would have considered voting for him. That is not "BS." Geez
I'm sorry, Branden. A little over-zealous here.
I am so tired of the "Democrats need to run more conservative candidates to win" speech, and then we rarely win when we do it.
But, I shouldn't have taken it out on you.
Oh it's fine! I need some spirited conversation. Being in southwest Georgia away from you all I really don't get much political talk! Well, political talk that I want to take part in. xoxoxo
Jason says:
I think you always get those kinds of messages. At the Teilhet fundraiser at the comedy club (which I loved…anything but another Stand and Chat event), there were a LOT of GOP bumper stickers in the parking lot. At least in the metro area, you could make the same argument, that had Teilhet won, we could have stolen some Sam O people. But I doubt it. If you're a primary voter, you're largely going to stick with your party in the end. There may exceptions, but not enough to matter much.
I think we have a good ticket for November. I hope you'll vote for Barnes, even if you can't get too excited about him Branden 🙂 He's all that stands between us and being raped, pillaged, and beaten by the GOP in redistricting. He's saying the right things too… we'll just have to see how it develops. GA 2010 is different than GA 2002. We'll find out how different.
One thing I like about Hodges' win is that it does add more geographic balance to the ticket. For those reminders that the "Other GA" hates Atlanta politicians, that feeling didn't help us much when we nominated some guy from Albany in 2006, now did it? Some "Atlanta liberal" got more votes in the Lt Gov race that year than did the "South GA conservative Dem". We can't so easily boil down things.
I kinda hope Casey Cagle goes after Carol Porter, tries to rough her up. Cause it will back-fire. Carol comes across as sweet as pie, so typical GOP tactics shouldn't work. I also understand from my straight male friends that she has major MILF appeal. LOL
Jason, thank for asking me to support Barnes. You are actually only the second person that has asked me to support him. : ) I will get behind him.
Melb says:
Hodges has a lot of cross party support. I think that he will be pulling people from both parties in November.
Bernita says:
Looks like all the votes are in – Hicks wins with 478 votes. Coleman can call for a recount if he chooses.
BEZERKO says:
Oh, how does Patricia McCracken get 30% while R.J. gets, what, 16%? No justice there.
Name recognition (Thurmond) and alphabetical placement explain much of this.
Jen B. says:
I was thinking a lot of people voted for McCracken because she's not DuBose Porter's wife. As in, I'm not voting for DuBose, so why would I vote for his wife?
BEZERKO says:
I understand the name id and placement. Oh well, just 85% seemed a bit high. It's all good though, R.J. traveled all over the state and made a lot of contacts, it should help him in the future. I'm sure we'll see him at it again.
BEZERKO says:
Way to go Jerry!
JerryT says:
Thanks B!
JMPrince says:
I've got little idea of the revenge vote, (I know it happens though), but Bill Bolton getting damn near 1% of the vote will make him all the more insufferable, most likely. Just more encouragement for the next run at something! JMP
Bernita says:
Hicks is only up by 479 votes now….uggghhhh this Labor race is dragging on forever.
Jen B. says:
Also, may I suggest signing up for Gravatars?
That way, your specially chosen icon will show up next your name. I think Jason should use this photo.
JMPrince says:
Been looking for one with a decent looking Snidley Whiplash, actually.
Jason says:
You know, it does seem that Mad Dog is on a bit of a losing streak. Perhaps the brass-knuckles tactics they are famous for have run their course (please, God!)?
Congrats to Hodges for cleaning Teilhet's clock. I feel badly for Rob, but hopefully this won't be the last we hear from him. I'm disappointed that Joe Martin, without campaigning a lick, could win his race without a run-off. That Superintendent's race along with SOS (AGAIN!) disappointed me tremendously. Mike Mills deserved much better than the final showing he got.
On the gay revenge front, I'm EXTREMELY pleased that Randall Mangham came in DEAD LAST in the Governor's race, even behind that nut job Bill Bolton! Randall was one of our enemies in the Amendment 1 fight in 2004. And speaking of Amendment 1, the man SINGULARLY responsible for that amendment appearing on the ballot (instead of allowing Calvin Smyre to smother it to death in Rules), former Speaker Terry Coleman, LOST the Labor Commissioner's race to Darryl Hicks. Karma (and payback) is a bitch, fellas. It may have taken 6 years, but it warms my gay heart to help shank both of you.
Jen B. says:
"That Superintendent's race along with SOS (AGAIN!) disappointed me tremendously."
Daniel F. says:
I generally second absolutely everything Jason said…although I'm less in love with Mike as many others here seem to be. Nothing against him, other than he couldnt raise a dime to save his mother's life. He is another candidate that I hope sticks around and perhaps tries to work his way through the elected ranks a bit more in the future. a la Scott Holcomb in HD82. (Yet another young progressive from DeKalb county to hopefully soon replace a not-worth-much older rep.)
Add Elena Parent in HD81 to the mix and we'll have a really refreshing new bench coming out DeKalb… whatever happens in November, we're making some great tweaks locally.
Jason says:
Oh, yeah, Elena Parent is VERY exciting as a candidate too! She's the most prepared to meet the slimefest that is Jill Chambers.
The Atlanta Stonewall Democrats had a pretty good night too! Here's how our endorsements went:
SOS – Mills (LOST)
AG – Teilhet (LOST)
Fulton Commission 6 – Garner (Run-off)
Senate 39 – Fort (WIN! – 67.7%)
Senate 44 – Davenport (WIN! – 60.3% in 3 person race)
House 14 – Ledford (WIN! – 51.8% or 39 votes)
House 33 – Wilkerson (WIN! – 52.3%, unseating incumbent.. No GOP opposition!)
House 39 – Morgan (WIN! – 73.4%)
House 44 – Jones (WIN! – 82.5%)
House 55 – Taylor (WIN! – 56.1%)
House 65 – Snead (LOST)
House 75 – Neal (Run-off)
House 80 – Murray (WIN! – 68.4%, Smash Jacobs to a pulp Sandy!!!)
House 88 – Mitchell (WIN! – 72.4%)
House 94 – All 4 were great on LGBT issues. Not sure if Board will reconsider an endorsement for the run-off.
House 96 – Marin (WIN! – 52.3% or 31 votes)
Counting Run-offs as "wins" for now, Stonewall Democrats endorsed candidates went 12-3 last night! That's AWESOME, especially in those close races. Even if both run-off endorsements lose, the record would be 12-5.
Jason says:
Whoops, make that 10-5 if run-offs lose.
Daniel F. says:
In HD94 Dar'shun Kendrick leads the way into the run off with a little over 1/3 of the vote in a four way race. She'll be a great replacement of Mangham…everyone should please drop her a little coin and perhaps a few hours of volunteer time.
Personally, I'll be happy watching some of the local and CD run offs as well as the GOP's statewide races, for the next few weeks. And while I wish a few of our races had ended differently, I'm glad to see that we wont be beating up on one another very much longer. Ultimately, I am my usual proud self of my super liberal Decatur precincts…we've got some crazies, but we always vote the right way.
Congrats to our outright winners! …time for some new bumper stickers.
Melb says:
Daniel, I hope you are directing that comment at Shannon – we need new bumper stickers badly!!! 🙂
parker404 says:
Thanks for the tip about Dar'shun Kendrick. She appears to be a solid candidate.
Jason says:
Dar'shun Kendrick would be a FANTASTIC addition to our House delegation! She's an improvement in so many ways over Mangham. She's been working her district too, which the results show. We should all support her!
Jen B. says:
I seriously cannot believe Joe Martin won without a run-off. WHY?
PaulaG says:
Well all I know is that he sent us about 4 million (conservative estimate) mailers, plus another 2 million drop-off pieces.
Jen B. says:
True. I received at least two or three mailers.
Juliana says:
I got 2 from Martin and one from Georgianna Sinkfield. No one else "targeted" me with mail..
Rubyduby says:
We didn't get one piece of mail from him. I guess he must have done a very targeted (i.e. ITP – very blue areas) mailing.
Jen B. says:
Hm. My precinct is 50/50 Republican/Democratic ballots (just checked online), so I think it might have been targeted to likely Democratic voters. But if you're going to do that, then why not do it statewide?
Trevor Southerland says:
That Labor Commissioner race is close, close, close… Joe Martin wins without a run-off… and David Wilkerson will replace Don Wix in State House 33.

Within a group of companies it is often considered desirable for cash to be managed by a central department which will:
With regard to internal investment it sometimes appears that priority is given to projects from those companies which are already profitable (since they are able to show better incremental returns than those which are currently less successful); and it is argued that the loss-making companies may well have the greater need for operations.
The argument is probably not valid if the group has a clearly defined long-range corporate plan and if it is using the best available techniques of investment appraisal. It must also be borne in mind that the least successful companies may be those which at present have the weakest managers, so that an organization decisions must take priority over investment decisions.
In relation to overdraft facilities, the argument for Group central negotiation is that only one banker (or a lead banker) will be involved who will be well informed on the whole of the group's activities, and that all the resources of the group will be available as security. This does, however, put the whole group at risk if credit facilities are reduced. If the various companies have a good local relationship with the banks they have used individually in the past, it can happen that the total of locally negotiated overdrafts is greater than could have been obtained centrally. While the withdrawal of one facility still leaves the other companies untouched.
If one bank is used by the whole group with local accounts for various companies, then agreement can be reached that in calculating bank charged. All the accounts are then consolidated, so that overdrafts in one area are offset against credit balance in other areas. If there is only one Central bank account then to avoid loss of interest in respect of cash-in transit arrangements should be made for immediate notification of lodgements at branch banks. Some group require debtor payments to be made to a central cash office, but it is not always easy to obtain full compliance from customers and it can hamper decentralized credit control procedures.
The payment of creditor accounts centrally is easier to arrange, though it may involve delays in payment if involves first ot be approved by local offices.
