Politico: Women senators paving the way
By Emily Wales on
October 9, 2009
Blazing the trail. Breaking new ground. Making history. That's exactly how our women in Congress have been described and, even though we know it's true, it sure is great when others take notice of their incredible work.
GOP opponent literally takes aim at Wasserman Schultz
By Emily Wales on
October 9, 2009
I'm speechless. I honestly don't know what to say about reports that a Republican challenger to EMILY's List alum Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz actually shot at a picture meant to represent the congresswoman when he and his pals from the local Republican club got together at a shooting range. I'd like to say this is an "Are you kidding me moment?!" but that doesn't even begin to cut it.
EMILY's List House alums join Speaker Pelosi to promote health care reform
By Emily Wales on
October 9, 2009
The Democratic women of the Senate aren't the only ones stressing the importance of health care reform for women. On the House side, Speaker Nancy Pelosi is leading the way, holding a press conference earlier this week with the Democratic Women's Working Group earlier this week.
Democratic women senators unite behind health care reform
By Emily Wales on
October 9, 2009
At EMILY's List, we believe that electing women to office is critical for creating a more representative, progressive democracy. And with women at the table, our issues are a top priority. This week, that couldn't have been clearer. EMILY's List women of the Senate took center stage this week, speaking about the essential ways in which health care reform will benefit the country's women. From the House floor to Larry King Live, these women senators spoke out for women across America, describing the obstacles to care many women face.
"New" Republican leaders in bloom
By Emily Wales on
October 8, 2009
The rose is a rose, and was always a rose... I never knew the GOP could be so downright poetic. RNC Chair Michael Steele had one heck of a quote today, letting voters know that Republicans have turned over a new leaf, sprouted new roots, blossomed all over again. (I really could go on forever.) Speaking of two Republican gubernatorial candidates -- Virginia nominee Bob McDonnell and New Jersey nominee Chris Christie, Steele had the following to say: "We have unfolded, if you will, the flower of new leadership in the Republican Party."

Cartoon highlights Sink's leadership
By Emily Wales on
October 8, 2009
There was a great cartoon in the Pensacola News Journal recently, showing exactly why Florida gubernatorial candidate Alex Sink is cut out to serve as the state's top executive. And even if you're not on top of your Florida state politics, this speaks volumes. Alex has been exactly the type of leader the state needs (particularly on modernizing the state's pension fund, in this case). Doesn't look like we can say the same for her opponent or the state's current GOP governor...
Gillibrand discusses Don't Ask, Don't Tell with Rachel Maddow
By Emily Wales on
October 8, 2009
Sen. Kirsten Gillibrand really is on a roll. Right after our last post about everything she's been working on, we caught this clip of her on the Rachel Maddow Show, talking about her work to repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Gillibrand said that she expects a congressional hearing on the policy this fall, a huge step towards progress. Gillibrand said that, during the 16 years the policy has been in place, the military "has lost over 13,000 service members."

Bill Tilton: Vikings celebrate legendary coach Bill Gutbrod (with three videos)
The Croatian Lodge in Eastlake was packed Friday evening with a who's who of football talent.
From a multitude of former high school stars to Division I college standouts — including a Heisman Trophy winner — to an array of players who made a career in the NFL, the big ballroom was filled with gridiron greatness of years past and admiring fans.
There was no denying who was the biggest and brightest star of the night.
If Bill Gutbrod was just a successful high school football coach who had won 267 games at St. Joseph High School between 1950 and 1990 and led his team to the Division II state championship in 1989, Friday's turnout for an appreciation night — and the passion in the room — might not have been as great as it ultimately was.
The difference here is if you talk to any of his former players or members of his coaching staff, is that Gutbrod was much more than a pioneer of the Vikings' football program and a Hall of Fame caliber coach. He is a role model, an inspiration and a life-changing influence for just about anyone he came in contact with more than his four decades of coaching.
The stories flowed on Friday. Some were humorous, others heartfelt. Most had to do with football, some had to do with life.
What I think most people took away from the night, and what I certainly have the most appreciation for having never played for Coach Gutbrod or had much contact with him, is the love and respect the man has earned over his years as a coach and an educator go way beyond X's and O's and the 2-minute drill.
Player after player, and coach after coach who stood at the podium and spoke, delivered funny and touching anecdotes about Gutbrod. After 40-plus years on the sideline, a story or two are bound to stick. At the heart of each speech, there was very little to do with Gutbrod's ability to break down film or game-plan for the next opponent.
Gutbrod the man seemed to be as influential on the players at the Croatian Lodge on Friday as Gutbrod the coach ever was. Continued...
Gutbrod's 310 career wins (43 at Gilmour) rank sixth in Ohio high school history. I wonder how many other men on that distinctive OHSAA list would have had such an impressive crowd — including a pair of television personalities from ESPN in Mike Golic and Desmond Howard — rearrange their schedules without any fanfare or publicity at all to be there for a night of appreciation like Friday was?
"I get asked a lot, 'Which coaches meant the most to you, did the most for you and you remember the most?' Most people expect me to say someone in college or in the NFL. I always say Bill Gutbrod," Mike Golic, St. Joe's Class of 1981 and former Notre Dame and NFL defensive lineman said. "What he did, how he helped us in sports and in life as men is immeasurable. I wouldn't have missed this for the world. Talk about a guy who deserves something like this, it is Coach Gutbrod.
"You don't see something like this usually. And I think what it says with every table that is filled here tonight and all the players who came back is how special Coach is to all of us."
Former Browns defensive lineman Bob Golic, who played for Gutbrod in the 1970s, served as the emcee for the event. Former VASJ coach and athletic director Tom Schoen, who played in the '60s and went on to be an All-American at Notre Dame was there. Andy Cannavino, who went on to play for Bo Schembechler at Michigan, was on hand to support his high school coach.
The list is too long to acknowledge all the names that football fans would recognize who were present Friday night, but the point is this: Nothing was more important in the lives of so many of the people that Gutbrod touched as players and as young men than to be in Eastlake to see the legendary coach given his just due.
For the most part, it didn't matter where they had to come from or what they had to do to be in attendance. Gutbrod's impact on the close to 400 people at the Croatian Lodge was abundantly clear. From ESPN celebrities to current VASJ students, everyone was equal when it came to being part of the Bill Gutbrod admiration society and fan club on Friday night.
"Coach Gutbrod is the epitome to me of what a high school coach should be," Cannavino said. "I played for Coach Gutbrod and Bo Schembechler and they are totally alike. I loved them both.
"If you have kids, you would have wanted your kids to play for Coach Gutbrod. I love him."
The love-fest went on for close to 90 minutes with tributes from Gutbrod's former players representing each decade from the 1950s through the 1990s. When Gutbrod was finally called up to the podium accompanied by a thunderous applause, the coach kept it short and sweet.
About 90 seconds is all he used to get his message across. When you think about it, he spent the better part of his life getting his message across to generations of student-athletes at St. Joe's, so maybe there wasn't much left to say? Continued...
Coach Gutbrod closed his brief speech with a line about what it means to be a Viking.
"St. Joe's football will never stop. We might lose a few, but we will never stop."
Neither will the unwavering love and respect for the coach who started it all on the corner of East 185th Street and Lake Shore Boulevard 61 years ago.
That's the case for everyone from high school second-stringers to former NFL stars alike.
The night belonged to Gutbrod.
There wasn't enough football talent that has ever strapped on the helmet that was going to upstage Friday's star of coaching and humanity.

Hello All,
I would like to share with Spring's community a big debate that we are conducting at my work place this days.
As a member in the Architecture team we where asked to roll out the "Information System high level architecture"
In the group we found out that there are 2 main "camps" -
Group A - in short: SOA
Details: We should eliminate the concept of systems and think about developing services. Each service should be autonomous, re-entrant (stateless), SLA based... bla bla bla.
This group believes that every layer should be loosely coupled to the other layers using an Enterprise System Bus (ESB). The UI (WEB) should talk with the logic through web services etc.
Group B - "System of systems"
This group believes that SOA should bring evolution not revolution to our existing architecture. this group think that we should continue to build systems but we need to think of them as system of systems and the way to wire them up is using Dependency Injection (e.g. Spring). We believe that eliminating a one big monolithic system can be achieved in-process using DI Container and that the ESB/Web-Services (out of process) is a performance killer and an anti-OO technology. We believe that there is a place for a ESB/SOA in our architecture - but only as a way to integrate between systems/legacy and not over-use it as if it was a Microkernel.....
What do you guys think - who is in favor of group A and who is in favor of group B and why? - do you think that using Spring promotes the purpose of SOA or is it bad and promotes a back-door for one big monolithic system??
For the protocol - I'm in group B

I write this stuck in traffic. Nothing unusual. But my location makes me realise, once again, how our highway route to progress is going nowhere. The road I am using is newly commissioned and expensive. It is the 28-km Delhi-Gurgaon Expressway, which was built just a few years ago to take care of the explosion of traffic between the two cities. It is access-controlled, with a 32-lane toll plaza, and was to provide easy access and a fun ride. The concessionaire—built as it is under the famous public private partnership model—took all steps to keep it prized for cars.
A harried parent called a few weeks ago. She wanted to know if the pollution levels in Delhi were bad and if so how bad. The answer was simple and obvious. But why do you need to know? Her daughter's prestigious school (which I will leave unnamed) had sent a circular to parents, saying they are planning to shift to air-conditioned buses because they were worried about air pollution. She wanted to know if this was the right decision.
Khan Market in boulevard Delhi is said to be the most expensive real estate in India, maybe even in the world. But in this richest shopping destination, buyers do not want to pay for parking their vehicles.
The biggest challenge that confronts cities today is the intractable problem of automobile dependence. As the automobile dependence continues to grow, it is adversely affecting the quality of urban life. Congestion, unsafe roads and pollution remain their bane. Unless accompanied by policies to restrict the growth in car and motorised two-wheeler travel, cities will run hard only to stand still.

Today my dog Rosie died. I got a call from my mom at 4:30 California time. For the first time in the last 8 years, tears came down my eyes. Last time I cried was sophmore year of high school when I watched my Nana take her last breath, she was and still is a hero to me. My Nana had polio and even to walk a few feet would have to use crutches but she could move mountains.
They say a dog is a mans best friend. The saying comes from a quote in 1870: "The one absolutely unselfish friend that a man can have in this selfish world, the one that never deserts him and the one that never proves ungrateful or treacherous is his dog."
When we got Rosie my family was going through a difficult time. My Dad decided to leave being a doctor, and he went from running a decent sized company to sitting at home. He changed and became a different man. For almost 2 years he was a different man. Until we got Rosie. Rosie changed and maybe saved my Dad's life. They became best friends and spent every minute together. Rosie changed my brothers life. The dude just fell in love with Rosie.
And today Rosie changed my life. Every time I saw Rosie, her tail would wag and she would jump on me. Whenever I was in my bed at home, I would wake up to see Rosie sleeping at the foot of the bed. I would wrestle Rosie to the ground, put her in a headlock. She always kept nudging you and licking you until you petted her. I never had the same affection for Rose that my Dad or brother had. Until today.
Life is about give and take, you put something in and you get something in return. Even if you win the lottery you still have to put in money. With a dog there is only unconditional love, never any problems, or anger. They are literally happy every time they see you and will often follow you to the end of the earth. They ask nothing in return. I can think of nothing else in life like it. Maybe welfare?
The most difficult moment I have had was a few weeks before graduation senior year of College. My first and most difficult final was the next day. Around 5pm I found out I was on the hook for close to a million dollars in fines for a business that I created and executed. Even worse, I was fully responsible for fucking up the lives of people that helped me execute the business.
I felt like I had the weight of the world on my shoulders. I locked myself in a library room until 5am and just thought of ways to fix the problem and come up with a solution. However, with death no amount of thinking solves the problem. You are left with a hole that heals over time, but hopefully realize that you never appreciate what you have until it's gone.
Rosie, will always appreciate what you did for my family.

EDMONTON – The culture of life is grounded on the inalienable dignity of each person, says Archbishop Richard Smith.
The Vatican has been quick to embrace the social networks but dioceses have been cautious. The Edmonton Archdiocese is on Facebook and Archbishop Richard Smith has a blog. Soon a Twitter account may be opened.
In 2008, Christian missionaries John and Eloise Bergen were working with orphans near Kitale, Kenya. Late one evening, nine men broke into their rural farm and brutally assaulted them.

The Google Nexus 4 smartphone is sold out from both the Google Play store as well as T-Mobile's website. (Google Play / December 3, 2012) |
The Google Nexus 4 smartphone has once again sold out, and it looks like you won't be able to get it until after Christmas.
The 8 GB model of the flagship Android phone is now listed as sold out in bright red all-cap letters on the Google Play store.
Its 16 GB counterpart, meanwhile, can still be purchased, but shipping wait times are listed as five to six weeks from now -- putting the earliest possible arrival time as the second week of January.
QUIZ: What set the Internet on fire in 2012?
The LG-built device is sold on contract from T-Mobile, but if you check the Seattle-based carrier's website, it's listed as "OUT OF STOCK!"
I've contacted Google to confirm that the Nexus 4 is indeed unavailable until after Santa makes his annual deliveries, but I have not heard back from the Mountain View, Calif., company.
The Nexus 4 also sold out last month just minutes after going on sale. It remained out of stock until a week ago, but it didn't last long after going back on sale.
It seems demand has either been incredibly high or Google's supply is very low.

Value Fit Durability Style I use these to play golf in. My head is big and the hinges make for a very comfortable fit. The full size lense covers all of my viewing angles. The bridge isn't super wide but wide enough to be comfortable on my nose. The lenses are rediculiously clear! so nice to look out these glasses the contrast is perfect for everyday use, especially on the grass. I would highly recomend these to anyone!!!

Review by: Aloha Lady -
Fit Durability Style Value I went with the Bronze lenses, love them. The fit is a little wider than most glasses, so they tend to fall of my head when I push them up over my forehead....that is a definite draw back for me.

text: I would love to work on our history's together, at least for the beginning when they were still together. After that of course we would have rights to what ever we want, as we each went our separate ways. As for the magic, I think it should depend on what type of magic is used. For example I am planning on my character using magic of the mind, telekinesis, levitation, eventually mental domination, etc, and as such his magic would drain him mentally, and over years of using it start damaging his sanity.

At a time when apartments are the favored property type of investors and lenders as occupancies swell and rents rise after the collapse of the housing market, three local apartment owners are finding places to grow — outside Northeast Ohio.
Summit Multicapital LLC in Akron announced Jan. 16 it has acquired the 169-unit Mosteller Mansion Estates in Hickory, N.C., for $18 million. Meantime, an affiliate of Apollo Management in Pepper Pike has bought the 327-unit Georgetown Apartments in Kettering, Ohio, for $12.7 million from Connor Group of Centerville, Ohio, according to the Dayton Business Journal.
Burton Carol Management LLC in Warrensville Heights also added to its portfolio of properties, which are in Northeast Ohio, Michigan and Florida, with the acquisition of Beachwalk Apartments in Novi, Mich., according to Joy Anzalone, chief operating officer. The 240-unit complex in suburban Detroit was purchased in a distressed sale from Huntington National Bank, Ms. Anzalone said. The apartment owners are following the tried-and-true investment strategy of tapping different geographies to diversify their holdings. In Summit Multicapital's case, it is pursuing a plan to acquire properties in areas with population and rent growth, according to Edward Newman, Summit CEO. "We're buying in areas that are growing because people are attracted by the lifestyle, areas where people want to live, and in secondary markets," Mr. Newman said. The Hickory, N.C., property is in the popular Lake Norman area outside of Charlotte, but it's removed from the Charlotte market itself where Summit would need to compete with large, publicly traded real estate investment trusts, Mr. Newman said. Summit has been buying properties in North Carolina for the last six years, and the Hickory property is near a 312-unit property that it owns in Mooresville, N.C., Mr. Newman said. Summit also owns about 800 units in the suburbs of Denver, and this latest acquisition means about half of its 3,250-suite portfolio is in the Akron area and the rest outside the region. In Burton Carol's case, it knows the Detroit area from other properties it has owned there in prior firms that it sold. It is a larger metropolitan area than Cleveland, but within a two-hour drive or flight that Burton Carol uses to define its target markets, Ms. Anzalone said. Although Beachwalk Apartments was bank-owned, Ms. Anzalone described it as a gem because it is located on Walled Lake, an inland lake near Detroit. Burton Carol had to compete with 19 other offers for the property. "There is exuberance in the market, but you need to be methodical," Ms. Anzalone said. "We had no problem rising to the price. But you want to buy at a price that will allow you to own a property for years." Burton Carol is continuing to look for other opportunities outside the region, she said, but is shying from one of its favorite markets, Florida, because of the rise in selling prices there. Apollo did not return two calls by Crain's deadline last Friday, Feb. 8, on the Dayton acquisition.Buying outside the region is a perfect balance to Northeast Ohio's apartment market, which lacks population growth and has rents lower than in larger cities. That's the view of Michael Barron, a vice president for investments at the Marcus & Millichap real estate brokerage, which has an Independence office. "In Northeast Ohio you get stability and cash flow," Mr. Barron said, because units are less costly than in other areas, but the region's slow-grow apartment market frees it from overbuilding typical in areas with population growth. "In other areas, you get price appreciation for the units and rent growth," Mr. Barron said. Ralph McGreevy, executive vice president of the Northeast Ohio Apartment Association trade group, said owners of larger apartment portfolios can compete effectively for properties outside the region because of the market's current strength. He considers the drive to buy outside Northeast Ohio a road well-traveled by property owners in the past. It's now being trod by another group of growing apartment owners, Mr. McGreevy said.

In the Northern Hemisphere it is the beginning of Spring, the season of Fertility, new life, conception and growth. Pagans of many stripes see this time as a time to start new things, as a time for fertility of imagination as well as biological fertility. It is a time in which the Goddess is a young, vibrant Maiden, and the young God, reborn in Winter, grows into a playful, virile young man. The two flirt and tease each other until the holiday of Beltaine, where the God and Goddess unite in love and cause the abundance of Summer in crops and beasts.
As a time of life's beginning, it may not seem appropriate to discuss the end of cycle, Death, but all things are connected. Living things die and return to the earth, helping to create fertile soil from which plants grow and thrive. Living things feed on other things, causing death but also ensuring their own survival. The cycle is just that, a circle, connected both ways from beginning to end.
Unfortunately Death strikes when it will, and humans in all our wisdom can only sometimes delay that inevitable moment. Even in Death, however, all is not lost. The energy that defines us, our soul, continues on in its own cycle of reincarnation, a journey through lifetimes of new challenges and wisdom to be gained through them.
Several years ago, a friend of mine made the decision to take her own life and end her suffering here in the physical world. I am not going to get into the "morality" of that choice – I do believe it was hers to make, and whatever extra challenges in subsequent lifetimes she may have to face are also hers. It is not my place to judge her decision. However, because of the pain she felt here on Earth, I felt it was possible she may have too many ties here and it might have been hard for her to move on to what came next for her. Also, I was unable to grieve with others who knew her at the time. So, I created a ritual, based off of this rite I found on the internet at the time, plus some customized thoughts for the situation at hand. Later I wrote it into my Book of Shadows (a Wiccan's guide to her/his personal Tradition) in a slightly less specific form in case I wanted to use it again for another funeral. Fortunately, I haven't had occasion to use it since then.
Another Pagan blogger, Brenda Lee of PaganInMe and Four-Legged Mom, who is just beginning to explore the depths of her new Pagan faith, wrote today about previous deaths in her family, with questions about her own post-life choices. While I can't answer her questions specifically, because the answers are hers to make, I thought I'd post my little (ok, not so little) funeral ritual as sort of a companion post to her. Because Death for us survivors sucks and can be traumatic. But the Other Side is not to be feared – it is a place of transformation only. We live on.
**Note: to include every step of the ritual the way I would set it up would make this post twice as long. Instead, I listed steps but did not elaborate for "common" ritual tasks like Casting the Circle, things that you might do the same every time you performed a ritual. Since this is customizable, feel free to perform these tasks the way you prefer, or in the way that makes sense to you in the context of this rite.
This ritual can be performed with just 4 people (taking the roles of the Directions/Quarters in the rite) or adapted for an audience or other participants, as needed. Depending on your situation, you may even use this at the grave site or funeral home.
I hope you find this helpful. Please feel free to comment with questions or your own ideas about death/rebirth and funerary rites. I look forward to your thoughts.
A Wiccan Funeral Rite
Preparation/Cleansing of Self
Preparation/Cleansing of Space
Altar Setup
Casting the Magic Circle
Calling the Quarters:
The circle members should Call the Quarters in much the same way that they are normally called, except in reverse order (widdershins) starting in the West. That is to say that each individual in turn names their Watchtower, invites the spirits of the Watchtower into the circle, and renews his/her connection to the Watchtower as usual. However, after the connection has been renewed and before moving on to the next individual/direction, there is an added passage that each should say. These are listed below. At the end of this additional passage, the directional candle should be lit.
West: "As the Sun sets, so (name of the deceased) has left us. The water of our tears, like the salt water of the sea and the water of our Mother's womb, blesses this circle."
South: "As life is a day, so (name) has passed into the Night. The fire of our life, the memories and courage, and the strength given to us by (name) blesses this circle."
East: "All that falls shall rise again, so (name) shall also rise again. The air we breathe, this treasure of our life, and the compassionate caring we give each other blesses this circle."
North: "As the Earth forms us, so (name) shall return to the Earth. Our Mother feeds us and clothes us. She gives us everything, and in the end she takes our bodies back into herself. The earth that forms us and receives us after death blesses this circle."
Invoking the God/dess(es)
A photo and/or items belonging to or representative of the departed should be placed upon the altar.
At this time, those who wish to speak to the dead or say something about him/her may do so.
The following should then be read by the most appropriate person in the group, or the words can be divided up among two or more individuals if necessary.
"(name) has died. No one who has died should ever pass from this world to the next without knowing the loving grief and hope felt by those around him/her. We are here to share our grief and our hope and our love for (name) that it may aid in the transition from this life to the next.
Our lives are formed of many others, and we form other lives in return. And we are here after your death, (name), to honor your life.
There is only Love, the greatest Mystery. We open our hearts and our eyes in the light of this Love. The Love of the Goddess gives birth to the Universe. The love of our parents gives birth to us. The love of our friends and family sustains our life. Kindness, love, and pleasure – we are formed from these and we form each other. When we die, we leave them behind us as we prepare for the life beyond this one.
You have left your family. You have left behind sex and even gender. You cannot be a woman or a man to enter the other wold. You have left behind your body. None who have bodies can pass into the other world.
The Goddess is taking you back now (name), the Great Mother. Her womb is the Earth that will receive your body. Your body is a seed now, a seed of other lives. You will return to the mother and when the time is right, you will be reborn through Her.
In sacred space we have gathered to honor you and to give you some things to take on your journey with you."
Each member should place an offering upon the altar, in front of the photo of the departed. The offering can either be of some significance to the departed or represent the relationship between the member and the departed (a photo, keepsake, letter, etc), or it should be symbolic based on the direction or element of the person giving the offering. The offering should be named at this time, as should its significance:
East: "The East is the direction of beginnings, birth, and knowledge, and the element of Air. Things that begin must end, but things that end can begin again. Please accept this offering of (item). May it aid you as you as you prepare for a new birth and new life through the Mother."
South: "The South is the direction of fire and passion. Please accept this offering of (item), and may it help you remember the love that was yours in this life, and may it call forth an abundance of love in the next."
West: "West is the direction of emotions, intuition, and endings. As every ending makes way for a new beginning, please accept this offering of (item) to help you let go of the pain and sorrows of this life and prepare for the joyful experiences of the next."
North: "North is the direction of Earth, of the physical, and of stability. Please accept this offering of (item) as a reminder that, although you are for now formless and sexless, you will soon be reborn through the cycle of life and again experience the world through a physical body."
We All Come From the Goddess
"We all come from the Goddess,
and to her we shall return,
like a drop of rain
flowing to the ocean.
We all come from the Goddess
and to her we shall return,
like a drop of rain
flowing to the ocean.
Corn and grain, corn and grain
all that falls shall rise again
hoof and horn, hoof and horn
all that dies shall be reborn."
Cakes and Ale:
Be sure to save two offerings of cakes and ale, one for the God/dess(es) and one for the departed.
The following words can be spoke by the same person(s) who spoke before, or by someone else if desired:
"Samhain is the time of the year when the veil between the worlds is thinnest. It is a traditional time to honor and call upon those who have left before us. We will remember you, and all those who are no longer with us, and bless you at Samhain.
Journey on now, (name). We will follow when our time is right. May you be reborn when you are ready in a place and time that best suits your needs for learning and spiritual growth, and may you also experience in your new life the love and happiness you so richly deserve."
There may be a moment of silence as each member of the circle silently says goodbye.
Saluting the God/dess(es)
Saluting/Dismissing the Quarters:
The Directions are thanked and dismissed as normal, but as the directional candle is extinguished, the following words should be spoken:
East: "The Sun will rise again."
South: "Life continues."
West: "Love is all we can be sure of."
North: "Only the Mother is Eternal."
Banishing the Magick Circle
Note: The offering of cakes and ale to the God/dess(es) is buried with thanks, and the offering of food and items is left at the graveside (if possible) or near the ritual site for the departed.

I am intrigued by the chicken. I'll be there.
I feel blessed by the electro gods to have met guedita as "the chicken"
shirts off, everyone!
Friday: Sparks, Jello Biafra ..., FOALS, Beach House, Yeah Yeah Yeahs, blur
Saturday: Wild Nothing, Portugal. The Man, Violent Femmes, Franz Ferdinand, Yeasayer, Descendents, Moby, Grizzly Bear, Hot Chip, It's New Order, bitch!

"Inspekshahn! Chek wan!"
Fuck. Yes.
Oh and Green Velvet too. I've heard good things.
ill be there and ill be sweaty. also just invested in 9 feet of red el-wire, so if you see a guy with some string of red light in the sahara/pf come say hi
Coachella 07 (the introduction), 08 (the bands), 09 (the documentary), 10 (the people i came with), 11 (the relationship test... we passed), 12 (whatever the weather, Dirty Epic forever), 13 (the year of the troll)
Too many potential conflicts Sunday. Besides the Pure Filth selections Lilia mentioned, I will also be taking in PJ Harvey. But yeah, the rest of the day I'll be in the chicken coop. Here's hoping for an Axwell vs. PJ conflict.
sorry for getting overly excited about the amazing amount of shit to see on sunday? looking at my list of acts for sunday makes me feel like a robot going "does not compute" and then self-destructing. i'll keep it positive though.
SWEATY SAHARA SUNDAY + (horny high contrast hour) FTW
Down minus DFA explosion.
I sweat profusely for no reason at all so I can't wait to find a place I can call home.
If we're lucky something will happen. Some adversity will happen and something unexpected will happen and you'll get tired and you'll get hungry, you'll have trouble going to the bathroom, and you'll lose your car keys, and all these wonderful things will add up to some powerful experience that 10 years from now we'll say "We lived, we lived." - Wayne Coyne on Coachella
Come find me in the Sahara. I will be sweaty and undercover.
I will be present.
Do you anticipate this day topping last year's Facemelt Friday? If it's anywhere close, I'm looking forward to it
If y'all fresh to death, then I'm deceased... -Kanye West

All right, I gave in... I just bought the new iPad!
The first time I even touched an iPad was last month, in the ER, while filling out a health questionnaire. This will be so fun and exciting as I have yet to really dig into one thus far.
Bought the black 32GB Verizon 4G LTE. Tax write off as this will be used for work as well as home. I'm also going to get the modulR case and hand strap if they release an updated version for the 3rd generation.
Keeping my fingers crossed that Apple adds Siri with a software update in the near future...
You will not regret doing so. I'm currently testing on my first gen. iPad, an iBook that I am writing for a client. The iPad just keeps on giving.
The particular model that you have chosen will help too.

First, supermarkets place basic essentials, like milk, in the far corner of the store so you'll be tempted by other things on your way there. If you're just going to the supermarket to pick up some quick necessities, keep your eye on the prize and don't be lured by items you don't need.
Another thing to be wary of is well-placed flashy packaging. Stores often place these products at kids' eye level, hoping they'll convince you to buy it for them. So, if you see cheap toys or brightly colored candy, keep the cart moving and stay strong in the checkout aisle.
Water packing is another shady supermarket practice that could be raising your grocery bill. Stores overprice their cuts of meat by adding a diluted solution to the package. Then they include that weight when pricing out the cost. Stores may call it a "flavor enhancer," but it's really just water, so think twice about packages that have a noticeable amount of liquid inside.
Follow these grocery shopping tips and you'll avoid getting bagged by supermarket schemes. You may even notice more money in the bank because of them.

We are always trying to find ways to save extra money... the cost of food is just crazy! We are using GroceryIQ and coupons (all kinds). We just started a little victory garden and hope to dry, can, or freeze anything we don't consume while in season.
Another great way we found to save was by changing our cell phone coverage, we ended up selecting Ting (https://ting.com/r/zb15d91tp13), partially because they offered a discount for signing up, offered to help with the migration from our previous cell provider, and that we didn't have to buy any special equipment or sign a contract.
Really a no-brainer and waste of my time..
March 07 2013 at 4:53 PM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyI shop only for what I really need. But after walking around I wind up with more than I thought and when I get ready to check out I put that stuff back. Food is really expensive the key to savings is to know your prices for each item so you will know when it is a bargin and when it is just a marketing ploy to make it seem good.
If you can shop multiple stores for their best sales items you can do ok. I am very careful and for 2 people spend around 300 or so a month. I dont think you can go much lower unless you eat a lot of cheap unhealthy foods.
I had bad dandriff,heavy ear wax in my ears i needed jel to comb my hair back and dry skin behind and on my ear. NO MORE !! Now i use johnsons head to toe baby wash 28 fl oz to wash my hair and body.I also use a moisturizer jergens 21 fl oz in my hair,ears on my face,arms ears and a cented deoderent that is all for about 15.00 and it has lasted me a long time. no need for all the other exspensive product that cost way to much and dont work as well.
March 02 2013 at 3:59 AM Report abuse Permalink rate up rate down ReplyI use CRESBI crates when I grocery shop to avoid using any plastic bags. The crates hold the equivalent of up to 6 plastic bags worth of product. If I have a short shopping list I just take in one crate (you can set up the strap so it works like the store's convenience nested baskets) and won't buy any more than can fill the crate. Then when I'm done I collapse the crate back down and put it back in my car for the next trip. I never buy more than what the crate (or crates if it's a big shopping trip) can hold. If I want a faster checkout I place all the barcodes up in the crate and the checker just scans the items and doesn't even take them out of the crate. This also disciplines me as to what I buy so I avoid impulse buying.

Just one example, not just General Mills.
My nearby supermarket rebuilt itself and scrambled up and it is so frustrating that I actually shop there less and the farmers market more. They don't have their meat in liquid filled packages. As far as the milk, which is actually in the far corner that store as the article mentioned, the whole foods market have the organic - antibiotic free milk conveniently placed in the store.

Multiply that by 52 weeks in a year, and that's $15,600. Either the person who wrote this article meant to say $2,300 per month, or I am shopping at the wrong place!!!

300 a week? You are shopping at the wrong place for sure. I average 150-250 a MONTH for 2 people. And we do splurge on lots of fresh veggies, meat and fruit.

We are fortunate enough to have a fantastic produce market down the street from us, and buy all of our produce there. I can buy over 10 lbs of fruit and veggies for less than $10! But, we also spread our shopping between 3-4 locations so we get the best prices. Meats from Sam's club that we freeze and lasts us at least a month, fruits and veggies from the produce market, and everything else between Publix (buy 1, get 1) and WalMart. I don't understand how on earth you have a need to spend $300/week on groceries! And on 'basics'?!
