|L28: Do listening part of homework (JapanProject)
I wanted to catch sunrise at Odawarajou, remembering how Papa takes early-morning or sunset shots to get nice sunlight. So we woke up at 5:00 and got ready to catch the 5:30 sunrise... only to find out that the hotel doors wouldn't actually open until 6:30.
Well, I _tried._
So we went back to sleep until around 7:30. Then we followed the recommended Odawara/Hakone tour, taking bus, boat, ropeway (aka cable car), cable car (aka tram), and train around the scenic area. We also visited the shrine, as I thought the red torii gates might make nice pictures.
I didn't get an opportunity to go to the ancient cedar avenue or the Hakone Checkpoint. Maybe I'll go to the area again in winter in order to see Mt. Fuji capped in snow.
We hiked to Owadakuni Valley to check out the volcanic vents. There were a few sulphuric springs. Stalls sold kurotamago, eggs cooked using volcanic heat. I bought some. If you peel away the intimidating black shell, it's your usual delicious hard-boiled egg.
On the way back, I convinced the guys to go with me to the Toy Museum. It was full of the most amazing things. I'm particularly fascinated by moving toys. There was even a cooking pig that held a frying pan with a plastic egg in one hoof and a bottle of pepper in the other. When wound, it would shake the frying pan, add pepper, and flip the egg! Neato. The second floor had even more of those pretty moving toys-- elaborate scenes that moved in the display case.
But by far the most amazing discovery was a music box museum which Mom would've really, really liked. One of the attendants explained how different kinds of music boxes work. She also played many music boxes. I was fascinated by the different kinds of automata people had the skill to make.
One music box was in the form of a glass cage. Inside it, two toy birds warbled, moving their tails and heads in such a life-like manner. Another was a clown bent over a table, holding a quill in his hand and writing by the light of a small gas lamp. When the clown nodded off to sleep, the lamp grew dim. The clown woke up, turned the lamp on again, and continued to write.
I bought a small glass angel musicbox at the museum store. I think my mom would love it as a souvenir. (Of course, blogging about it completely spoils the surprise, but ah well.) I'm not sure if I should send it by mail now. I'm worried about the glass. Alternatively, I could take it with me and let the music remind me of my family... =)
The trip was fun. It took less time than I'd budgeted, though, so maybe next time I'll do it as a day trip instead. Anyway, there are reasons to go back - Fuji-san on a clear day, Odawara castle, Hakone checkpoint - although I can probably get similar experiences elsewhere. Still, it was cool!
The only downside was that one of my classmates tried to hit on me. After some explanation (in Japanese! =) ), I think I managed to get the point across that I just want to concentrate on my studies. Besides, I sorta like someone already. <laugh> But I'm still concentrating on my studies! =)
Okay, back to work! I made sure to finish the draft for tomorrow's presentation before I left, but there are a few odds and ends I need to take care of--the listening part of my homework, for example...
Apologies to people who haven't been able to view my site lately. I don't know what caused that error... AHA! Someone else's config. I was looking for bugs. The header and footer accidentally got used for my real page.

If Kou was a female , i would probably of ranked him as dumber than Nina , for not killing Gato , and her, when he had the chance.

Yea, i don't normally have anything against dumb female characters either. Some of the dumb girls mentioned in this thread are from what i would consider silly anime , so being dumb really doesn't bother me in their cases. It is when characters are supposed to be smart , and the anime isn't a comedy , that it can bother me.
Still alot of people in here have named some real good candidates.
Also a disclaimer. I am not trying to piss any girls off with this thread. In my opinion , there are so many dumb male characters that the thread would pointless.Usually the females are the voice of reason in non kiddish anime.

Who are some of your dumb females in anime?
Here you go
Saionji Sekai from School Days
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate-if u search the internet ,you will find what seems to be an enormous hate for this girl mainly because it was partly her fault that the series went downhill-people view sekai as this bitch/slut/whore because she seduced her friend's boyfriend after setting them up only to turn him into a complete monster who cared for nothing but to satisfy his own sexual desires and then killed him in the most cruelest way with no regret ...
The love -a victim of love and relationship based on nothing but sex-she is a tragic character ..she was mentally ill even though her actions were insane but that's was because of her deep/desperate/destructive love for Mokoto -she sacrificed and used herself to get to mokoto and was willing to give him what he wanted to satisfy his needs and didn't really mind being a sex tool to him and she was always on doubt on weather he truly liked her or not ..
Hayase Mitsuki from KGNE
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate- many people view Mitsuki as this whore who ruined her best friend's life and seduced her boyfriend only to sleep with his best friend ..
The Love -a tragic character -she was a big mess and it's not like it was her fault that her friend had an accident -it's just happened -the poor girl was suffering a lot because of her guilt and was even willing to give up on her love for her friend's sake -she suffered more than haruka caz huraka slept during the pain but Mitsuki had to live with it and she was always on doubt on whether he still had feelings for huraka..And when she slept with his friend -she was drunk and very depressed ...Much like sekai -her relationship with taka was based on sex but she was realistic...
Andou Aiko from last year's everyone's favourite show True Tears
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate- I've seen so much hate for aiko-people view her as this backstabbing bitch who used her best friends crush to get to him and strung her boyfriend a long only to break his heart in a cruel way -she was not just cruel to her boyfriend but to herself as well -her plans had the potential to destroy the friendship between the three of them for good not to mention her forcing herself desperately on the boy she loves(assaulting )him without warning even after knowing that he had a girlfriend ..
The Love- I sympathize with her , -her situation was hard (hurt herself or her bf situation)plus the girl suffered a lot from tremendous guilt for both the boy she loves and the boy that loves her -conflicted between her own guilt and her feelings and she was confused -she couldn't say yes or no to her boyfriend ,yes or no to herself ,yes or no to her crush and so she kept it all to herself and lied to a void causing harm but it all got messy when she decided to be honest to both guys -and i don't blame her for forcing herself on the person she loves -she was desperate and was not even thinking right -wanting to taste that impossible love even though she knew she was destined to be a loser but she was unhappy -her self loathing,emptiness ,loneliness were main factors of her behavior plus she was very realistic and that's why many people hated her but I was happy for her at the end because she found that missing piece ..
Hoshino Asami from Myself ; Yourself
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate-she's hated because of her shady/deceptive character even though she seems nice and caring .People also hated her for sabotaging the twin's life by spreading nasty rumors about them being in love (awe incest)in school not to mention her secret crush on Shuri (awe lesbian )
The Love-I sympathize with her cuz she is mentally ill .Even though she did all this to try and take revenge from Shuri because she got rejected in the past and was trying her best to break the twin's relationship because she thought they had romantic feelings for each other but I give her plus one for risking her life for Shuri's sake. But I don't think she's a complete badass like everyone is trying to make her out to be though I agree she did wrong but it was because of her taboo/ill feelings which is tragic if you ask me ..
Morimiya Aono from Sola
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate- ppl hated her for her brother complex and her obsessive behaviour -not to mention her controlling her brother's mind and torturing him by wanting him to kill the girl he loves..
The Love-a long suffering love for her brother -She sacrificed her life for him and she didn't want to accept the fact that he was dead ,not wanting to live without him ,just for the sake of being with him ..
Shindou Kei from Ef - a tale of memories
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate-One of the most hated anime Bishjo's .People hated her because she was the cause that her sister had an accident that coasted her losing one eye and her memory .people also hated her rude behavior towards Miayko not to mention what she did in ep 7 when she erased all the messages that Miyako left for Hiro's while witnessing Miyako's mental/tragic break down.
The Love- Even though she almost drove two girls to insanity .I'm a lot more symphatic to her cuz she was living in tremendous guilt that prevented her from confessing her feelings to Hiro's because of what happened to her sister cuz she thought that she didn't deserve his feelings plus it was not really her fault that her sister had an accident ,it just happened, it's not like she planned it on purpose as for what she did to Miyako .It was because of her obsession(deep love) ,her jealousy and fear that made her do all this and she did fix it all in ef a tale of melodies and showed us what a great person she is ..
Hinata Kagura from H2O ~FOOT PRINTS IN THE SAND~
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate-people view her as this lying slut who seduced her best friend's boyfriend using her body and was not there for her when she needed her the most ..
The Love-I pity her lot .she was being tortured a lot by her grandpa. Not only was she forced to betray her friend but she was also forced to change her identity and replace her dead sister besides she's only 15 and being raised in an environment like that is understandable. And her standing against such social pressures may be asking a bit too much in my opinion..
Mizusawa Mao from Kimikiss pure rouge..
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate- like aiko ppl view her as this backstabbing bitch who strung her boyfriend a long to ease her pain and broke his heart and also many ppl hated her beacuse kouchi picked her over yumi ..
The love -i sympathize with her a lot too -she was very confused and emotinaly conflicted with her feelings plus she was suffering from having to bottle her own feelings for kouchi and dealing with her guilt for kai -even though she seemed emo+having to lock herself in her room all day -it was painful watching her hurting herself so much ... T T
Asakura Nemu from Da capo
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate-Many people hated her (mainly those who side with kotori) for her obsessive behavior and her violence not to mention that she ousted Sakura from Junchie heart because he chose Sakura over her when they were young .people also hated her for her jealousy of Kotori and aww incest
The Love-Her taboo /deep feelings were the main reasons for her jealousy and her behavior and I did feel sorry for her as well plus she and Junchie are not blood-related so no harm there ..
Housen Elis from Canavas 2
Spoiler Alert! Click to show or hide
The Hate –like Nemu people hated her obsessive behavior and her jealousy over Hiroki and her getting angry at every small thing and also people hated her (partly Kiri fans) for the whole cousin issue
The Love – Her behavior was due to her parents tragic accident that made he fear the color red and her mental break down's was sad to watch if you ask me and she did grow a lot throughout the whole show and moved on from Hirki to purse her own dreams so it's not really her fault that Hurki chose her over Kiri..
Not sure if you classify those as dumb though but thier actions were sure dumb but you still feel for them ..
Easy one. Mihoshi - Techi Muyo
Kagome from Inuyasha, maybe. She's got a big heart and it's in the right place but she's always causing problems by running into danger.

Over three decades, Vivie Glass quietly created and developed the recipes that built a brand favored by confection connoisseurs around the country.
Now the baking genius behind her husband David Glass' cake empire is telling the story how she and David met, had a family and created Desserts By David Glass, a business that at the height of its success was turning out a half a million cakes a year.
In her new book titled "Vivie And David Glass' Delicious Desserts: A Recipe Book Filled With Sweetness, Love And Loss," Glass talks about raising kids, baking cakes, a mother's grief and the power of chocolate. She completed the book after she and David closed their cake baking business in Connecticut and moved to Vermont last October.
The memoir/cookbook also contains the recipes for the most well-known David Glass creations, including the signature flourless Ultimate Chocolate Truffle Cake, Ultimate New York Cheesecake, Luscious Italian Almond Cake, Rum Raisin Carrot Cake and others.
Glass says her 21-year-old son Adam, who died unexpectedly last July from a heart condition, inspired the project.
"Adam always told me I should write a cookbook," says Glass. "After he died, I stopped baking and started writing. "
The book follows the cake makers from the beginning of their relationship in 1981 — he was a caterer with a dynamite chocolate dessert; she was an amateur baker and cookbook collector with a degree in English Literature. They started dating, moved in together and began marketing a distinctive chocolate truffle cake from their home in Asylum Hill.
As demand for the confection grew, the pair moved operations to the Colt Building in Hartford, married and added a son, Joshua, and a perfect New York cheesecake to the family business.
"Our customers were asking for additional products, specifically a cheesecake," says Vivie Glass. "I was home expecting a baby, so I spent most of my pregnancy developing the recipe."
The trend continued. A second son, Jeremy and a rum raisin carrot cake came along next, followed by a third son, Adam, and an Italian almond cake. Over the years, the kids grew up and pitched in, and the wholesale company flourished. Vivie Glass ran production and development.
"I'm shy and David loves the public, so I stayed behind the scenes," says Vivie Glass.
Desserts By David Glass products were sold at Zabar's, Whole Foods, Stew Leonard's, Trader Joe's and a number of upscale restaurants, but eventually, Vivie Glass wanted a closer connection to their customers.
"I wanted to see people actually eating my cakes without the intervention of the middleman," she says. "I wanted their feedback. So we started cake tastings and selling directly to the public. We got to know the people who loved our cakes and they got to know us."
In 2004, the Glasses moved the business to a 13,000-square foot facility in Bloomfield, hired more staff and added more cakes to the lineup. But in 2009, with growing debt and a failing economy, Desserts By David Glass went into bankruptcy, forcing the couple to shut down after 28 years.
"It was devastating," says Vivie Glass. "It was more than a profession. It was our craft."
A little over a year later, they were back in business. Taking inspiration from the pop-up restaurants trend in California and New York, they sublet a temporary space in South Windsor and started baking again. This time, the business' name acknowledged the woman — as well as the man — behind the cakes.
Vivie and David Glass' Delicious Desserts opened in December 2010.
"We baked old favorites and new creations and sold them to walk-in customers on Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays," says Glass. "No staff, just David, me and our sons."
The first week they opened, they baked 500 cakes and sold them all — within an hour. The following week, they made 2,000 cakes and sold out again within hours.
"It was amazing," says Vivie Glass. "I thought they would have forgotten us, but all our customers came back and shared their stories of how they used our cakes to celebrate the great occasions in their lives."
They'd planned to close in January of 2011, but ended up staying open and baking and selling cakes from the little space for more than a year and a half — until last summer, when their youngest son died suddenly. After that, says Vivie Glass, the heart went out of the effort.
"Adam was so much a part of the business, we just couldn't do it anymore," says Vivie Glass. "The day after he died, I started to write this book. "
David and Vivie Glass shut down operations and moved to Vermont to be closer to son Josh and granddaughter Zoe. David continues his chocolate truffle business, selling a limited amount of the candies to his email subscribers. Vivie Glass, who now works with developmentally disabled adults, completed the book she'd started by adding the recipes she'd guarded for three decades.
"We weren't going to sell them to some big company," said Glass. "We wanted the people who loved our cakes to have them and be able to make them whenever they wanted."
"Vivie And David Glass' Delicious Desserts: A Recipe Book Filled With Sweetness, Love And Loss," is available as a Kindle download on Amazon for $9.99. Information: www.davidglass.com.
This Ultmate Chocolate Truffle Cake recipe (no flour required) is included in the book:
Ultimate Chocolate Truffle Cake
>>Makes one 6-inch cake
>> 3 1/2 ounces semi-sweet chocolate chips
>> 1/2 ounce unsweetened chocolate, cut into small pieces
>> 4 ounces sugar
>> 4 ounces unsalted butter, cut into small pieces
>> 2 extra large eggs
>> 2 tablespoons sifted cocoa power
Grease a solid bottom six inch cake pan with non-stick spray. Make sure to hit every spot!
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Carefully place a 9- by- 13 inch cake pan into the oven. Fill pan with hot water so that it is filled to about one third of the way up. Let the water heat while you prepare the batter.
Over a double boiler on medium low heat, melt the chocolate, unsweetened chocolate and butter together, stirring with a whisk until the mixture is absolutely smooth.
Meanwhile, put the whisk attachment on a stand up mixer. Mix the eggs and sugar on medium speed until well incorporated. You don't want to mix this on high speed or mix too long or the cake will not have the proper texture. Just mix it enough so that when you rub a bit of the eggs and sugar between your fingers, the sugar feels dissolved.
Now pour the melted chocolate and butter into the eggs and sugar mixture. Beat on medium until it is fully incorporated.
Lastly, add the cocoa powder on low speed. When it disappears, turn to high speed briefly just to make sure it is thoroughly mixed in.
Pour the batter into the prepared six inch pan. Now carefully place the pan into the 9- by- 13- inch pan that is in the oven. Check the level of water: the hot water should come halfway up the side of the cake pan. If it does not, add a little more hot water. Do not let the cake pan float!
Bake for 55 minutes to one hour. The top of the cake should have formed a paper thin crust and will have cracked slightly in the center.
Remove from oven and let cool to lukewarm. Place a six-inch cake pad over the cake and, gripping the cake pad, flip the cake over. Rap the edge of the pan sharply one or two times on a countertop. It should come out easily. Trust me – I used to make two thousand of these a day!
Let cake cool completely. You can wrap the cake and freeze it, but it is delicious eaten that same day at room temperature, as David and I discovered when I was testing the recipe for this cook book.
The Glasses baked their Chocolate Truffle Cakes in solid bottomed pans that were six inches in diameter and three inches high. Vivie Glass suggests checking Amazon.com for "Parrish Magic Line 6X3 Inch Round Aluminum Cake Pan." Cake pads, available at most stores that sell baking supplies, are thick cardboard circles that hold the cake. One side is usually white.

From Sofia, Bulgaria this past weekend. Patriarch Kyril visited the Patriarch of Bulgaria and a joint Liturgy was held in the massive St. Alexander Nevsky Cathedral in Sofia, Bulgaria. I saw that the Bulgarians wore Greek style phelons and both clergy and hierarchs of the Bulgarians wore white, as we do during Paschaltide, while the Russians were wearing red except for Patriarch Kyril, who wore white. The Bulgarian Patriarch must be very old as he looked rather infirm. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VptEYtOrHo
I saw in this forum some time ago about the Bulgarian Patriarch's 97th birthday.

My god, get over yourself. Seriously. It's a freaking ad for Tanzania. Does it have to be plastered on a prominent wall inside our stadium that looks rediculous and out of place? The cause of Tanzania? LOL What about every other third world country? Give me a break.
Well, on behalf of YOUR God, I am sure he appreciates you telling me to get over MYSELF for defending a man who has put hundreds of millions of his own money into supporting those who need the help.
Tell you what... I'll "get over myself" the day you put up 9 digits of your own cash, and you do something for those OTHER third world countries that Paul isn't supporting. I don't suppose you're supporting them or doing anything to help. Paul is doing what we call "leading by example". He has agreed to give away everything but like 1% of his total wealth. Tanzania is a country that he cares deeply about and has given of himself and his time and money to support a cause. How dare I respect and stand up for the man, right? He can only get kudos if he does it for EVERY country.
OR........ maybe he's doing exactly what great men do and leading the way. Maybe Jerry Jones realizes he has a huge stadium full of space and he puts some of his proceeds toward Ghana? And maybe every other overwhelmingly rich sports owner steps up and does something good, and Paul is the one who led the way, rather than throwing up another Miller Lite ad.
The fact that you can possibly be offended by what Paul and his organization has done speaks volumes about you sir. The fact that you say I need to get over MY self for praising a man who has done a wonderful thing and tried to help out in his own way really shows me a lot about general attitudes. The selfishness expressed here is pretty damned amazing.
Yeah, I will applaud our team owner when he does something great, and I'll applaud every other team owner when they go above and beyond as he has done. He's a trendsetter and we're lucky to have him and should be proud. Not mouthing off and saying that he's apparently not doing enough by only picking one country. Put up or shut up. You haven't created an advertising campaign to try to help build an economy of scale in a third world country. Paul has. And I fully support him, and I'd like to think that our fans are classy enough to understand what he's doing here. You don't get it? I feel bad for you... but I don't feel bad about responding, because frankly your post just makes you look like a heartless jerk and that's something you'll have to live with. I won't feel bad for a second whether I go overboard in supporting Paul's mission and vision or not. I've lived through every other owner and what he's done for all of us is beautiful. Taking that cash and paying it forward to the homeland of my wife and children's ancestors makes me feel better and better each day about being a fan of OUR Seattle Seahawks. Way to go Paul! Don't listen to the haters. Keep the momentum rolling.
Boom. Roasted. Game, set, match.

Also recommends voting against a number of remuneration-related proposals at Shire, Weir Group and Tullow Oil AGMs
Ahead of four high-profile AGMs taking place today, Dr Hans-Christoph Hirt, Co-Head of Hermes EOS, outlines our opposition to Michael Dobson's appointment as Chair of Schroders, and why we recommend voting against three remuneration proposals at AGMs today.
Following the appointment of Michael Dobson, the company's former CEO, as Chair and the Board's proposal to shareholders to re-elect him to the Board, we intensified our engagement with the company on Board composition. Key points our engagement team have raised include:
- We are supportive of the appointment of Peter Harrison to CEO and the timing of the CEO succession process.
- We also support the board's intentions to recruit further Non-Executives, particularly seeking technology, international and plc experience. This commitment will lead to a majority independent board.
- While we recognise the significant contribution that Michael Dobson has made in his tenure as CEO, we are not able to support the decision to appoint him as Chair. Although we recognise some of the key client, regulator and strategic partner relationships he holds, we do not believe that these justify a breach of a fundamental principle of UK corporate governance and best practice that a CEO should not become Chair of the company.
As such, at the Annual General Meeting of Schroders today, we have recommended that our clients vote against the re-election of both the Senior Independent Director, who led the Chair succession process, and of Michael Dobson.
We do not support the increase in salary of 25% for the CEO, Dr Flemming Ornskov, particularly given that his overall bonus potential is more than 10 times his basic salary and his total remuneration was over $21m last year. We believe that an incremental approach to salary rises is more appropriate and should reflect shareholder value creation over the longer term.
Weir Group
In the binding vote on the proposal to approve the remuneration policy, we are recommending to clients that they vote against, due to the proposed award of restricted shares which are not tied to performance targets. To focus on creating value over the long term, we believe that the company should have performance targets and apply the test of common sense if these prove to be unrealistic due to unanticipated market conditions.
Tullow Oil
We are recommending that clients vote against this year's pay awards at Tullow Oil as we believe that the bonus award to executives (at 38% of the potential maximum), which equates to almost two times basic salary, is out of step with the decline in Tullow's share price of approximately 80% over the last three years. We feel that there is a good case here for downward discretion to have been applied by the remuneration committee to the mechanistic outcome of the remuneration policy.

Candy man
Posted 10 March 2006 - 07:45 PM
Let see....there are the stories about Bloody Mary, which I always heard was either 3 or 5 times, in the movie Candy Man it was 5 times I think, and in Beetlejuice it was 3 times. Although I don't think BJ was really evil, a pest maybe, but loads of fun at a party!
There are literally hundreds of superstitions about mirrors so it is no wonder that there are stories about them. I am in the process of writing a book of horror short stories and each one deals with a mirror as the source of evil. I personally hate mirrors.

and also has some interesting details on the origins and variations of the legend.
The point which I should first wish to understand is whether the pious or holy is beloved by the gods because it is holy, or holy because it is beloved of the gods.Sonnet XCIVBut if that flower with base infection meet,The basest weed outbraves his dignity:For sweetest things turn sourest by their deeds;Lilies that fester smell far worse than weeds

An interesting topic seakla. I'd enjoy reading something like that. Any idea when the book will be published?
There are literally hundreds of superstitions about mirrors so it is no wonder that there are stories about them. I am in the process of writing a book of horror short stories and each one deals with a mirror as the source of evil. I personally hate mirrors.
In the meantime, here're a few tidbits for you:
At the time of a death Jewish people today will often cover the mirrors in their homes because of a superstition that one can see the Angel of Death in a mirror. One of the strange descriptions coming from the Talmud is that the soul is like a large vein and that the Angel of Death takes hold of that vein and extracts it from the body: "From the body of a righteous man he extracts it gently as though drawing a hair from milk. From the body of a wicked man it is like the whirling of waters at the entrance to a canal."
Maybe the legend of Bloody Mary has its roots in Judaism

Also a friend of mine tried the candyman thing, and when she said it for whatever time it was needed to be said the lights in the hallway shut off, and we both looked at each other and laughed.
NEVER do any sort of summoning light-heartedly! You must show proper respect or things could get out of control.

"Candy Man" was invented for the movie off of one of the Bloody Mary urban legends.
When I was in third grade, I was in the restroom during recess while some friends did the local Bloody Mary (lights off, water running, place wet hands on the mirror while chanting the name 3 times). I swear that the water started to glow white and I saw an upper torso of a lady in the mirror. Mists shaped like arms came out of the mirror and reached for us. I ran for the light switch, and when I turned it on the brestroom was normal again.
Posted 05 July 2006 - 03:44 PM
Sounds the same with Nicholas Nails. Before you go to bed, check yourself for scratches and say 'Nicholas Nails' three times or something and when you wake up the next day you're supposed to have scratches all over your body.
Now theres one i've never heard before, interesting
Or do things worth the writing.
Posted 06 July 2006 - 02:54 PM
anybody know the right way to summone blody mary? i have tried it and it doesn't work
As with any urban legend, the exact procedure varies from place to place. Where I grew up, the idea was to touch the mirror with wet hands and chant her name 3 times. I didn't actually participate (I was just washing my hands, so that's why the water was running) because it somehow felt wrong.
Before summoning any entity, make sure you are strong enough to control or contain it. You are fully responsible (in the kharmic sense) of anything you release.

There is a variation on this ritual where you place two candles in front of the mirror on May Day and stare into it and supposedly you will see the face of your true love. This can be discounted by the same theory as above plus the additional added extra that apparently (in our subconcious) we are programmed to fall in love with people who have similar facial features to our own. So if you stare at your own reflection in a mirror in poor light the features will begin to change as your eyes relax, and your perception of the reflection will begin to change too. Essentially if you go looking for your true love or Bloody Mary you will see them! Candyman actually appeared beside or behind the person in the mirror and then attacked them rather than taking over the whole reflection.
I remember my mother telling me years ago that the whole Candyman legend actually started in the slave pens in Liverpool, UK (my family is from there) Liverpool was one of the major slaver ports in the world. Supposedly the slave that suffered this terrible death called down a curse on the slave district and one slaver in particular, and was thereafter seen in mirrors and standing water where ever the slave trader looked.
The big one in the school playground when I was a kid involved saying Bloody Mary 13 times, counting backwards from 10 and then visualising a staircase with 13 steps. I think we just used to call it 13 Steps. Supposedly as you went up the steps Bloody Mary appeared and was your guide into several doors where weird things were supposed to be seen! I can't remember the exact performance maybe someone else does - it's definately strange that these things seem to appear everywhere with similar rituals.
Remember in the UK Bloody Mary is Mary Queen of Scots, the Catholic Queen who was executed for her plot to depose Elizabeth 1st, her younger sister the Protestant Queen. It could be a myth perpetuated from then.

Idea Exchange: How to make a tourniquet for exotic patients
May 01, 2011
We were looking for a small limb tourniquet for ferrets, guinea pigs, small reptiles, and birds. The standard ones made for dogs and cats are too big, and rubber bands and hemostats are either too tight or not tight enough. While shopping at a local craft store, we found some inexpensive waterproof materials that we used to make tiny tourniquets.

AL Capsules
BOSTON (AP) — A.J. Pierzynski hit an RBI triple in the bottom of the 10th inning and the Boston Red Sox — on their fourth manager of the night following a string of ejections — beat the Tampa Bay Rays 3-2 Friday in the latest testy game between the teams.
Jonny Gomes scored the winning run. Fittingly, he reached base when he was hit by a pitch, a common theme that led to one bench-clearing scrum and nearly as many ejections as runs on a wild night at Fenway Park.
Juan Carlos Oviedo (1-2) plunked Gomes with one out in the 10th and Pierzynski followed with a drive to the triangle in right-center.
The Red Sox rushed out of the dugout — for once not to possibly fight their AL East rivals — and celebrated their fifth straight win following a 10-game skid.
Andrew Miller (2-4) got the win after the Red Sox rallied from a 2-0 deficit against Tampa Bay ace David Price.
HOUSTON (AP) — Jonathan Villar broke an 0-for-26 slump with a go-ahead double in the seventh inning and Houston extended its winning streak to seven games with a victory over Baltimore in the annual Major League Baseball Civil Rights game.
It is the first time Houston, losers of 100-plus games the last three seasons, has won seven straight since 2010.
Brett Oberholtzer (2-6) allowed four hits and a run in seven innings. Chad Qualls got four outs for his fifth save.
The Astros had one hit before Matt Dominguez doubled to start the seventh. Alex Presley singled with one out but was thrown out trying to stretch it into a double. Robbie Grossman followed with a double to tie it 1-all. Villar's ground-rule double chased Miguel Gonzalez (3-4).
The Astros wore the uniforms of the Houston Eagles and the Orioles donned the uniforms of the Baltimore Elite Giants of the Negro Leagues.
Houston rookie George Springer, who hit seven homers in his previous seven games, went 0 for 4 with two strikeouts to snap an 11-game hitting streak.
OAKLAND, California (AP) — Brandon Moss hit a grand slam in the first inning, and Josh Donaldson had two home runs and four RBIs in Oakland's victory over Los Angeles.
Coco Crisp had two hits and drove in a run for the A's, who have won three of five since a four-game losing streak. Moss left the game with right calf tightness.
Howie Kendrick hit a two-run homer and Mike Trout added a solo shot for the Angels, who lost for only the seventh time in 21 games. C.J. Cron also drove in a pair of runs.
Drew Pomeranz (5-2) pitched a season-high 5 1-3 innings, allowing five runs and four hits. Pomeranz had not allowed a run at home in 17 innings before the Angels struck in the fourth.
Garrett Richards (4-2) got only two outs. He gave up five runs on five hits in the first inning.
NEW YORK (AP) — Ricky Nolasco pitched six effective innings, Oswaldo Arcia homered and threw out a runner at home plate, and Minnesota flexed some muscle in beating New York.
Josh Willingham and Trevor Plouffe also connected against Vidal Nuno (1-2) for the light-hitting Twins, winners for the second time in eight games. Texas and Kansas City were the only American League teams to begin the day with fewer homers than the Twins' 39.
Kurt Suzuki and former Yankees infielder Eduardo Nunez had RBI singles in the eighth, giving Minnesota its highest run total since scoring eight against Boston on May 13.
Nolasco (3-5) had not won since April 24, a span of six starts.
TORONTO (AP) — Alex Gordon and Lorenzo Cain homered to back Jason Vargas as Kansas City beat Toronto.
Cain went 3 for 4 and matched a career high with four RBIs. Gordon reached base three times to help the Royals hand Toronto its second consecutive loss following a season-best, nine-game winning streak.
Kansas City has 24 home runs, fewest in the majors.
Vargas (5-2) struck out seven in six innings. He is 2-0 with a 1.60 ERA in six road starts.
J.A. Happ (4-2) lost for the first time in four starts, allowing a season-worst six runs in 7 2-3 innings. Jose Bautista homered for the Blue Jays and threw out a runner at first base from right field for the second straight game.
SEATTLE (AP) — Justin Verlander pitched into the eighth inning, and Victor Martinez and Miguel Cabrera hit two-out homers off Hisashi Iwakuma to lead Detroit past Seattle.
Cabrera hit a two-run shot in the third off Iwakuma (3-2) to give the Tigers a 2-0 lead. Martinez connected two innings later for a three-run shot on the 10th pitch of the at-bat after Cabrera was intentionally walked.
It was the 13th homer of the season for Martinez, who raised his AL-leading average to .347. Rajai Davis also went deep for Detroit.
Verlander (6-4) lost three of his previous four starts and gave up 11 hits in each of his past two outings. This time, he allowed five hits, struck out seven and walked one.
Joba Chamberlain pitched the ninth for his second save.
Kyle Seager hit a two-run homer for the Mariners, who played without second baseman Robinson Cano (bruised hand) for the second straight night.
CLEVELAND (AP) — Corey Kluber struck out 12 in 7 1-3 innings to extend his dominant pitching in May, and Asdrubal Cabrera broke a fifth-inning tie with a two-run homer to send Cleveland over Colorado.
Kluber (6-3) gave up a two-run shot to Carlos Gonzalez in the fourth but recorded his third double-figure strikeout game this season. He ends the month 4-0 with a 2.09 ERA in six starts.
Kluber, who struck out a career-high 13 on May 4 against the White Sox, finished May with 60 strikeouts in 43 innings. The right-hander allowed five hits with one walk and was given a standing ovation by the crowd of 25,066 when he was pulled after retiring the first batter in the eighth.
The Indians snapped a four-game losing streak, while the Rockies fell to 2-5 on their nine-game trip.
Cleveland chased Juan Nicasio (5-3) with a four-run fifth. Michael Bourn's single tied the game before Cabrera's homer put the Indians ahead. Lonnie Chisenhall, who drove in two runs, added an RBI double.
Cody Allen pitched a perfect ninth for his second save.
CHICAGO (AP) — Ian Kennedy struck out nine in six strong innings and Yonder Alonso hit a two-run homer to lead San Diego past Chicago.
Cameron Maybin hit his first home run of the season and Alonso finished with three hits as the Padres ended Chicago's three-game winning streak.
Kennedy (4-6) yielded one run and four hits with three walks. The lone run was set up by Maybin's mental lapse in center field in the fourth inning, when he forgot how many outs there were.
Huston Street pitched a perfect ninth for his 16th save in 16 opportunities.
White Sox starter John Danks (3-5) allowed two runs in seven innings.

Dedicated to exposing, and resisting, the all pervasive nanny state that is corroding the way of life and the freedom of the people of Britain.
Thursday, January 24, 2013
I am gemsued to read that Hove (the "posh" end of Brighton) has banned the use of the word "sex" in a forthcoming fair at Hove Town Hall.
Brighton psychotherapist Steve Griffiths was planning to hold the " Love, Sex and Intimacy Fair" in September as an event to dispel taboos, tackle discrimination and promote safe sex.
However, Nanny's chums from Hove council have, according to the Argus, banned "sex" from the name of his event lest the event itself be banned.
Factoid: Brighton has an annual naked bike ride and is awash every weekend with hen and stag nights carrying inflatable penises (or is it penii?) and the like.
Visit The Orifice of Government Commerce and buy a collector's item.
Visit The Joy of Lard and indulge your lard fantasies.
Show your contempt for Nanny by buying a T shirt or thong from Nanny's Store.

EpigenDX, a startup biotech company, recently moved out of the business incubator space provided by Massachusetts Biomedical Initiatives.
Company leaders found that MBI had all of the equipment, safety procedures and facilities support they needed so the company could focus on the science, instead of the business, and the company outgrew the space.
Li Ying Yan, president of EpigenDX, said the company is a contract researcher for the pharmaceutical industry, working with companies, government agencies and epidemic labs. The company is also involved in research and development for cancer biomarker discovery.
�The access they gave us to the equipment really helped us,� Ms. Yan said. �It meant we did not have to buy the freezers and the autoclaves and the other equipment we needed when we were getting started.�
EpigenDX, which was located at MBI�s facility on Barber Avenue in Worcester for nearly five years, moved to its new location in Hopkinton in May.
�We�re still a small company,� Ms. Yan said. �But our annual revenues are approaching $1 million and we have eight employees. It was time to move.�
Ms. Yan said MBI also assisted her company with safety training, and still provides facilities support.
For 10 years, MBI has been working in the city to provide the life sciences industry with the resources needed to develop new biotechnology, medical device and pharmaceutical companies.
MBI offers laboratory space, access to shared equipment, assistance with compliance and permitting, and plan development and consulting services to its client companies, who are in MBI�s locations at Gateway Park, 55 Union St. and 100 Barber Ave.
While giving these startups the services they need to launch their businesses, MBI is also benefiting the local economy; 500 new jobs have been created, producing an economic impact of more than $9.3 million each year.
This year has been a successful one for MBI, with 10 new client startups joining and four companies �graduating� to expanded facilities, including Blue Sky BioServices, which continues to operate in Worcester.
Other 2012 graduates include Attogen Inc. in Beverly and Biofluent Labs Inc., which has joined with Nemucore Medical Innovations, also in Worcester.
A total of 59 companies have graduated from MBI�s facilities in the last 10 years, and 44 are still in business five years after graduation. MBI�s client success rate, which counts those companies that have remained in business for five years after leaving MBI, has grown steadily, from 69 percent in 2009 to 72 percent in 2010 and 75 percent in 2011. The 75 percent retention rate is significantly higher than the industry average of 56 percent.
�When we started this our goal was the industry average, or about 50 percent,� said Kevin O�Sullivan, president and chief executive officer of MBI. �But when we sign on with a client, we require a business plan, one year of funding and a one-year lease.
�We play tough economic love up front,� he said.
That pre-screening of clients contributes to their long-term success, Mr. O�Sullivan said. He emphasized that the clients� success is their own.
�Eighty-five percent of our clients are coming out of the private sector, and they are focused on the market,� he said. �We�re the tool, but the companies are the ones that deserve the credit.�
Mr. O�Sullivan said the collaboration MBI has with the University of Massachusetts Medical School, the Cummings School of Veterinary Medicine at Tufts University in Grafton as well as other area colleges has also contributed to his clients� success.
MBI has 21 tenant-clients at its facilities; those clients have nearly 70 employees.
Three new clients have recently come on board: cideKicks medicine, VitaThreads and Woodland Pharmaceuticals. Mr. O�Sullivan said that cideKicks works to provide pharmaceutical compounds for companies and that Woodland is also part of the pharmaceutical support system. VitaThreads makes biopolymer threads and sutures that will be used to treat sports injuries and heart attacks.

Free, GP-endorsed Menopause Symptoms Tracker helps women monitor their symptoms
Friday, 08 December 2017
A free Menopause Symptoms Tracker™ to help women identify and monitor menopause symptoms over time has been launched by beingEve.net . The online symptoms tracker allows women to identify symptoms, their severity and frequency; monitor their progression over a 90-day period and pinpoint those symptoms that might require special attention.
After a thorough review, Dr Steven Edmunds, MB BS BSc DRCOG FRCGP at Pontesbury Medical Practice, in Shropshire, UK, endorses the Symptoms Tracker, 'The Menopause Symptoms Tracker is a useful free tool that can help women understand what symptoms are attributed to the menopause and then seek the right options to help alleviate their symptoms.' 'I would recommend that menopausal women take advantage of this broad-based support,' concludes Dr Edmunds.
Although the severity of symptoms vary from woman to woman, according to the NHS, most women will experience some symptoms around menopause. 'Often, women relate their menopause symptoms with PMS or PMT (Pre-menstrual Syndrome/Tension) and don't know they have started their peri-menopause,' explains Isabel Wood, co-founder of BeingEve. 'By understanding what is happening to their bodies, women are better equipped to find the right solutions to help manage and alleviate their symptoms,' adds Wood.
The Symptoms Tracker also includes a Daily Journal to record any thoughts, feelings and overall progress. Women can access the Symptoms Tracker by simply going to BeingEve.net and registering with their email address. This tracker can also be beneficial to GPs and pharmacies. In a world where GPs struggle for time and pharmacies are becoming first call of care for many patients, the Symptoms Tracker enables better informed patients, facilitates easy data sharing (via a print option) and makes for a more meaningful and efficient conversation between medical professionals and patients.
BeingEve.net is an independent health and well-being website bringing women the latest expert advice, tools and solutions to live a healthier and happier menopause. BeingEve is owned by Lifestyle51 Media Ltd and was founded by Isabel Campos Wood and Nieves Navarro in April 2017. They are based in Weybridge, Surrey, UK. For more information, visit www.beingeve.net or you can email them at email@example.com.
One more cup of coffee before I go?
Thursday, 23 November 2017
It seems like drinking three or four cups of coffee a day may have health benefits. Is this just another study into coffee consumption? They seem to be frequent with conflicting conclusions. This latest study was by the University of Southampton and the University of Edinburgh and while it stressed you should not start drinking coffee for health benefits the research was comprehensive and fairly positive for moderate drinkers.
There have been recent studies that suggested people who drank several cups of coffee a day tended to live longer but this research looked at over 200 studies and found that about three cups of coffee a day reduced the risk of heart problems, liver disease and some cancer.
If you are pregnant coffee consumption should be reduced or avoided altogether as it was linked to a higher risk of miscarriage, low birth weight ad pre-term birth.
The conclusions from analysing all the other studies were:
high coffee consumption had benefits in 19 health outcomes and harmful effects in six health outcomes
For the other outcomes investigated no conclusive results could be drawn.
Some of the benefits found included:
A 10% reduced risk of death for those who drank more rather than less coffee
A 18% lower risk of getting most cancers for people who drank more rather than less coffee
A 19% lower risk of death from cardiovascular disease (for example heart attack or stroke) for people who regularly drank coffee against those who never did
A 29% lower risk of fatty liver disease not related to alcohol for people who drank coffee compared to those that didn't
A 30% lower risk of type 2 diabetes for people who drank more compared to less coffee
The effects of a high coffee consumption and beneficial outcomes were identified as best for liver disease, liver cancer, death after heart attack, leukaemia and gout.
The results are mostly positive and it certainly appears a few cups of coffee a day will do you any harm but far more detail and analysis of the variables is needed in the studies to make some definite statements of health benefits or otherwise.

Winter Flu Warnings – Get The Jab?
Thursday, 14 September 2017
Warnings are appearing that this winter the flu virus could become a serious problem for thousands of people and increase pressure on an already under-strain NHS towards breaking point.
The warnings are based on the winters just experienced in Australia and New Zealand which can give a reasonable indication of what we can expect in the UK during our winter season. The southern hemisphere have had their worst flu season for many years after, like here, having relatively low levels of flu spreading for the past few years.
The NHS has said this year has been different for them, with double the average flu cases already with some of the season remaining.
The NHS went through the worst winter it had seen for a generation last year and with bed shortages and long waiting times already hospitals are warning things could get worse, particularly for vunerable people such as the elderly.
There is no guarantee this winter flu will be severe across the UK and this current strain is no particularly special just more prevalent. There are always a few strains around but one normally becomes far more common although not necessarily the same one as the southern hemisphere.
Should you get the flu jab?
Early signs are encouraging and it appears the vaccine available this year is pretty effective against this strain, unlike last year where it was less effective among the elderly.
If you are aged over 65, pregnant or have certain long-term conditions such as heart problems, stroke etc. you can get the flu jab free on the NHS. Also healthcare workers or children 6 months to three years old at risk such as asthmatics can also get it free – a nasal spray is available free to some children.
You can get the jab from your doctors surgery or most local pharmacies.
Even if you are not eligible for a free jab you can protect yourself against flu by paying for the jab from your local pharmacy, usually for about £10 - £15. It's quick and doesn't hurt.
Even if you had the jab last year strains change and protection decreases so you should get one every year, particularly if in one of the vulnerable groups.
High-risk groups, such older people, pregnant women and those who have long-term medical conditions or a weakened immune system, are at risk of complications.
The most common of which are chest infections.
Symptoms of flu include a high temperature, tiredness, weakness, general aches and pains and a dry, chesty cough.
Wash your hands for longer and cold water is fine
Sunday, 04 June 2017
A new study looking at washing your hands has come up with some interesting findings, or at least some interesting suggestions that may need further investigation as the sample for the study was small - 20 people, 10 men and 10 women.
The study was carried out by researchers from Rutgers University and GOJO Industries in the US. It is worth noting GOJO Industries produce hand sanitisers and soaps however, the research suggests these are of no more benefit than regular soap and water and cold water is just as effective as how water. What can make a difference is how long you wash your hands for.
The research only tested for E. coli bacteria which is a leading cause of food poisoning. They found using cold was just as effective at getting rid of the bacteria as washing with hot water and antibacterial handwash or soap was not significantly more effective at removing the bacteria than normal soap.
It did establish that washing your hands for longer – 30 seconds instead of 15 seconds – is more effective at getting rid of bacteria if you want to protect yourself against food poisoning or infections like the flu. It has to be said that the research only compared two products and also only studied E. coli.
There would need to be further, more in-depth research covering a wider range of products and other types of bacteria and infections before it can be stated for certain that cold water is just as effective as hot.
Using an antimicrobial soap wasn't found to be significantly more effective than normal soap at removing bacteria during any of the trial washes. There was no significant reduction in bacteria after handwashing between the lowest and highest water temperatures of 15C or 38C. Washing for 30 seconds (20 seconds of lathering and 10 seconds rinsing off) was found to notably reduce bacteria compared with washing for 15 seconds (10 seconds of lathering and 5 seconds rinsing off) when using common soap. Lather time didn't affect bacterial count for antimicrobial soap.
Current guidelines recommend that we wash our hands with water and soap for at least 20 seconds:
after using the toilet
after handling raw foods like meat, fish and vegetables
before eating
after touching pets or animals

As in year's past, the national cemeteries in Leavenworth and on Fort Leavenworth will be hosting separate observances for Monday's Memorial Day holiday.
As in year's past, the national cemeteries in Leavenworth and on Fort Leavenworth will be hosting separate observances for Monday's Memorial Day holiday.
The first will begin at 9 a.m. at the rostrum at Leavenworth National Cemetery, located off of Muncie Road east of Kansas Highway 7. According to Dallas Eubanks, the chairman of the Leavenworth Memorial Day Committee, the observance will last about an hour and will feature guest speaker Brig. Gen. James E. Rainey, director of Mission Command Center of Excellence at Fort Leavenworth.
Eubanks said he expects between 1,500 and 2,000 people to attend the ceremony, which aside from the address from Rainey will include the laying of about 30 different wreaths from different service organizations. The ceremony is expected to last about an hour, he said.
"All the veterans organization believe this is the right way to do it," Eubanks said of the full weekend.
It will be a culmination of sorts for a weekend that focuses on remembering those who have sacrificed everything in service for their country, Eubanks said. The observation began Friday, with a free concert by the American Legion Band of Greater Kansas City and continues early Saturday morning, as more than 1,800 scouts and volunteers from the area are expected to arrive at the cemetery to place flags at each of the approximately 35,000 graves on the site.
"This is actually the biggest year we've had for scouting," Eubanks said.
Fort Leavenworth will also host a celebration beginning at 11:40 a.m. Monday at its national cemetery located at 395 Biddle Blvd. or at the Frontier Conference Center across the street in the case of inclement weather.
During the ceremony, a wreath will be placed at the grave of Col. Henry Leavenworth, who founded the fort in 1827 and whose name was taken for the county and city. Parking for the ceremony will be at the Frontier Conference Center. Visitors should enter the fort via Grant Gate, Seventh Street and Metropolitan Avenue, in the far right lane and have government issued identification cards for each passenger.

People love to read about celebrities who spend huge sums of money on luxury items—even in these hard times. After all, who wouldn't be amused to learn that Paris Hilton owns a $325,000 doghouse that's an exact replica of her own mansion?
The limits of celebrity conspicuous consumption continue to be pushed. Some of the rich and famous have distinguished themselves by the sheer quantities of cash spent on quirky luxury items—up to $1 million or more. Often, the practicality of these purchases is dubious at best, and nonexistent at worst.
Who are some of the celebrities who have spent around $1 million or more on decadent extravagances? Click ahead to find out.

Soldiers are warriors who don't always need to be coddled, yet many Post Traumatic Stress Disorder treatment facilities only offer a soft approach to rehabilitation based on group therapy and talking about their experiences. What many of them need is the complete opposite – a tough physical challenge that demands they rekindle their warrior spirit and rise up to meet a challenge.
[caption id="attachment_3523" align="alignright" width="256" caption="Sergeant Todd Vance after a Muay Thai workout. (Photo courtesy of Kelly Crigger)"][/caption]
Sergeant Todd Vance has been there. A former Stryker Infantryman, Vance returned from Iraq and had a hard time forgetting about the distasteful moments of his more than 200 combat missions. After rehabilitating himself, he took up the burden of helping others and started a program for veterans based on something he knew a lot about – kickboxing. In particular, Vance is experienced in Muay Thai kickboxing, a physically exhaustive form of fighting that requires mental acuity to remember the combinations and wears the participants out through a grueling training regimen.
"I started the program for a few different reasons," Vance says. I work at the Veterans Administration, but love to teach martial arts so I wanted to combine the two. I thought to myself, 'no one has done this yet and martial arts is precisely what saved me, so why couldn't it help all the other guys getting back?'"
Vance first needed a facility to hold his weekly classes and approached the owners of the Undisputed Boxing Gym in San Diego where he trains, who were more than happy to help. "The class is at an off peak hour so we have the full facilities to ourselves," Vance says. "The veterans in my class don't have to pay any fees for my class and get an extreme discount if they want to become full members."
Vance then got the word out around town by making flyers that he distributed on local college campuses and convinced the Veterans Administration of San Diego to send it out to their email lists. Instantly he had five students and tangible results.
"It gives the guys a reason to get in shape, an education in physical fitness and martial arts, and gives them a safe place to go to blow off steam with people like them," Vance says. "Too many vets turn to alcohol to cope with the things they did and saw, so this gives them something else."
Vance's program, called POW (Pugilistic Offensive Warrior), is similar to the multi-faceted approach of Andrea Lucie's Marine Corps program at Camp Lejeune. Lucie combines yoga, fitness, and Mixed Martial Arts to help Marines cope with PTSD and has been a leading advocate for taking a harder approach to PTSD.
"Marines don't want to sit around talking about their feelings," says Captain Lee Stuckey, one of Lucie's former students. "They joined to be warriors, so they need something to hit and someone to treat them like men. Also MMA workouts are really tough, so they help us sleep. Without the workouts I have to take medication, which I hate."
Back in San Diego, Vance's group is small, but that just affords them focused attention with the same benefits as Lucie's group on the east coast. It's Vance's way of giving back to the troops and helping them find a way through their problems using the same solutions that worked on him.
"One of the students came up to me and thanked me for putting all the effort into the program and doing this," Vance says. "He said it's what gets him through the week and he looks forward to it every time. That was very rewarding and inspired me to keep pushing forward."

I think dancing is great. Really. I admire dancers. I was a pretty good dancer once. (It's in the blood).
But the Dolphins are seriously into dancing lately. I mean, seriously.
You saw Jared Odrick do the curious Pee Wee Herman dance after he made a play against Washington on Sunday. Today, during warmups before practice, linebacker Kevin Burnett put on some interesting moves that caught the entire team's attention. It was like, everyone is stretching and Burnett is going off to Atomic Dog.
Burnett was apparently celebrating the 100 year anniversary of the Omega Psi Phi fraternity.
And in the Dolphins locker room there is picture of Jason Taylor in all his Dancing with the Stars splendor with a funny caption that I don't believe I can repeat here but you get the drift.
My God, this is a happy 2-7 team!
Not only is there dancing, but then there are jokes about the dancing. Leading the charge as the butt of the jokes is the Pee Wee dance from Odrick. No question.
"I'm voting that the top worst celebrations I've every seen," linebacker Cameron Wake said of the Odrick dance. "I've told him, and he doesn't even care. I thought it was a one time thing, you know, But that's his thing now. So I thought, 'Ha ha that's good,' when I first saw it. But now it's like, "Dang, he's doing that again?' Next time he does it I'm going to push him out of the way."
Taylor was right there with the ripping of Odrick initially, but he dialed back Thursday.
"He got his feelings hurt when we said he didn't like it," Taylor said. "So we just left it alone. Whatever, just keep making plays he can do whatever dance he wants."
One player who definitely is not on the Dolphins top dance competition this week (or maybe any week for that matter, unless I miss my guess) is tight end Anthony Fasano. Fasano is nursing a tender ankle. He returned to practice Thursday on a limited basis after missing practice altogether Wednesday.
The Dolphins hope by Sunday he'll be ready to bust a move or do whatever dance it is that moves him.
