Free Spanish Valentines
Our new year, 2015, is moving too quickly for my taste. There are so many things that I enjoy doing that there are not enough hours in the day for me to do everything that I want to do. I do hate feeling rushed. Is that how life always has to be? Rushed? I prefer a more relaxed approach to life.
Regardless, Valentines Day is upon us, and I am determined to be present for the moment. In fact, that is my new goal...to be more present for the moment instead of worrying about what I need to do next.
Moving into our new home is right around the corner. Mom has her own room with bath and walk in closet. Santos and Paco have their own area, and so do Domingo and I. Paquito has his own area and patio. I can hardly wait because our goal for our new home is to be more organized to make all of our lives more comfortable. We should be in our home by Valentine's Day. I will share pictures on my blog.
Back to Valentine's Day! Enjoy your hearts and Spanish sub-headings.
Feliz Dia De San Valentine!!!!

Medical questions & health advice by board certified doctors
"Could the bulge in my belly be an ovarian cyst?"
I am 43, female, mother of two, an occasional smoker, and am overweight. 9 months ago a grapefruit sized ovarian cyst was removed along with all of my female reproductive organs with the exception of the other ovary. Since the surgery, I have had many compliments on my "weight loss" which I attribute to the cyst being going. I did lose nearly 40 pounds in the time before and directly after the hysterectomy. Three months after this surgery I had to have emergency surgery to repair an incissional hernia. Since the hernia and the reduced ability to work out, I have regained twenty pounds. My question is that I have a very noticeable bulge over the navel that expands side to side. The bulge is not tender or soft. Could this be another cyst or could it be where the new fat gain has deposited? My doctor didn't think much of it but I know that it is new and different for my body.
When someone presents with a bulge in the abdomen after having an abdominal surgery, my first thought is that this could be an abdominal hernia secondary to the surgery. It sounds like you have already had one hernia fixed which was fixed. While this makes a second hernia a bit less likely, there is still a chance that this represents a small non-strangulated hernia. These are usually not tender and may or may not be soft. It is also possible that you have a second ovarian cyst, but if you do it is showing up in the wrong area. I would expect a cyst in your one remaining ovary to be closer to your pelvis. A new fat deposit is also possible, but would be unlikely to show up as a distinct bulge in such a short amount of time. The best thing for you to do is get a second opinion on this thing. If you have shown it already to your primary care doctor, then you should schedule an appointment with your OBGYN that performed your operation. He or she can examine this bulge can get a CT image of the abdomen if necessary. If this is another hernia, then you will need to have it repaired.

Some contractual items present more risk to the organization than others. When crafting your negotiation strategy, it's worthwhile to evaluate each negotiable item to understand its importance, the impact if the outsourcer fails to deliver on that item, and the overall probability of failure. Use this tool to:
- List all items that must be reflected in the contract.
- Identify items that have not been adequately addressed.
- Determine which items are negotiable.
- Calculate a risk score for each negotiable item.
- Set a risk mitigation strategy.
Use this tool to systematically cover the crucial aspects of the outsourcing contract and mitigate risk.

With Strength showing up yesterday comes the 9 of Pentacles again for a second time in two weeks. The 9 of Pentacles today sees you being at peace with yourself and all that is you. In other words, you are acknowledging and accepting of who and what you are and what belongs to you and what don't. Once you acknowledge and accept that, manifesting your garden of earthly delights that is so representative of the 9 of Pentacles is a piece of cake.

Labiaplasty Procedure Questions and Answers
1. Do you use a special no scar technique for Labiaplasty? Some surgeons will just remove the excess tissue and the scars will run down the length of the labia. Will this leave unnatural scarring? Will it be obvious?
The so-called "scar-less" technique is an absolute fallacy. In this widely talked about technique, what's typically performed is that an inverted triangle is cut on the backside of the labia, roughly in the middle, and the tissue is then retracted, or pulled back, to make the labia smaller. This is usually a twenty-minute procedure and it is called "scar-less" because no one typically is going to see the inside, hidden areas of the labia.
In surgery, when a doctor wants to make something tighter, it's common knowledge that the area is opened horizontally . . . and then closed vertically. In this method of labiaplasty, the point of the triangle cut is near the widest part of the labia—then the tissue is pulled in. The problem with this technique is that it fails to address the three most important issues, or complaints facing patients seeking labiaplasty. They are; 1) dark tissue pigmentation (dark color of the tissue in the problematic area); 2) the thickness of the tissue in the labia, and; 3) the "rugated" (ruffled), uneven edges of the labia. Unfortunately, this technique allows for simply drawing inward the tissue in question, leaving it still visibly (anatomically) present after the surgery. Usually the patient ends up with smaller labia—but with the same dark, thick, ruffled tissue— now amassed in a concentrated area, often making the results appear worse than before.
2. Is it recommended to undertake this type of surgery if I've not had children yet?
Absolutely. If large labia bother you either physically, or emotionally . . . then it simply doesn't make any sense to live with these physical or emotional pains. Why would you wait? After labiaplasty, your self-esteem and anatomical form will be corrected.
3. What kind of anesthesia can be used in labia reduction surgery?
The surgery can be done with local anesthesia, level two IV sedation, or level three general anesthesia's (anesthesia). Most surgeons prefer IV sedation, or what is commonly known as "twilight sleep", as it makes postoperative recovery immediate and usually results in none of the discomfort from general anesthesia—typically, post op drowsiness, nausea, vomiting and endotrachial post-surgical effects.
4. How many visits to your office will be required?
Over 90% of cases are from outside the region. Our skilled staff can help facilitate ease of travel and planning. In recognizing the difficulty of travel today, due to increased security, only one trip is ever required. Patients may come in for a post-op exam if they wish, and are encouraged to do so (4-6 weeks after surgery), but it's not always possible when traveling from out of the area. In those instances, some patients can simply send a photograph of the surgical area for the doctor's review post-operatively. All routine pre-op tests and blood work are performed by 4PM the day before surgery.
5. Is it better to have labiaplasty done at an early age if there is a need, or is it better to wait until one gets older?
In almost every case, it's better to have labiaplasty done when it's needed. If large labia bother you either physically, or emotionally . . . then it simply doesn't make any sense to live with these physical or emotional pains.
Only five years ago, few patients knew of labiaplasty surgery to correct problematic areas. Today, with a heightened awareness of the problem by both young girls and parents, many are now turning to the surgical methods available to correct these problems. The reasons are that young women today are more physically active and armed with the knowledge that there is a simple, one-hour surgery to correct the problem—thus many women are moving forward with labiaplasty while still young. As far as any medical reason for delaying a labiaplasty, there simply isn't one. Whether or not a young woman decides to have the minimal procedure performed, or not, is up to how she feels about herself. In those cases, women and young girls who have an actual physical problem with their labia—such as large, or asymmetric labia—having labiaplasty performed early can result in an anatomical correction that results in greater patient self-esteem as they mature.
6. Would there be a rough edge on the labia when the labiaplasty is finished and healed?
Our surgical technique creates a natural appearing and feeling edge with no loss of sensation.
7. Will my sexual partner see or feel any changes resulting from my labiaplasty?
Feeling a change after a labiaplasty largely depends on the degree of labia abnormality to begin with. Simply said, if there is enough labia tissue present before a labiaplasty is performed that interferes with sexual activity, then usually the sexual partner will feel a difference after labiaplasty, because the excess tissue won't interfere with any sexual act as it might have before.
As well, it will be very apparent to your sexual partner that the external structure of the labia will have been altered visually—namely, they'll be smaller and better aligned. Your sexual partner will clearly notice this change for the better.
8. Could labiaplasty cause insensitivity?
There is no physiological association for sensory pleasure with the labia—that function is served by the clitoris. The only sensation elicited from labia is pain upon tearing or stretching. Labiaplasty can't cause a loss of sensitivity when done correctly.
9. Is the skin around my clitoris involved in the procedure?
In most instances, no. However, in those cases where women have excessively large labia, the skin around the clitoris is reduced due to the retraction of tissue during the labiaplasty procedure. In some instances, this adjunct tissue removal can result in an increase in clitoral sensation during normal sexual activity.
10. Is clitoral unhooding as involved a procedure as labiaplasty? And should a woman consider having this procedure done?
Clitoral unhooding (also known as Hoodectomy) is analogous to circumcision in men. It involves reducing the tissue that forms a hood or covering that shields the clitoris. Some surgeons won't perform this delicate operation because of the innervation (neuron cell density) of the clitoral node is many times more concentrated than in any of the surrounding tissue areas—thus if not done correctly, clitoral unhooding can result in heightened sensation of the node by normal movements, in some cases creating considerable discomfort. However, for surgeons who perform the procedure regularly, clitoral unhooding can result in increased stimulus of the clitoral node and many patients have reported increased sexual climaxes (orgasms). Surgeons who do clitoral unhooding usually have a method of determining the extent of sensitivity of the clitoris before proceeding by testing the area with cold and warm swabs. Patients SHOULD ONLY have this procedure performed by a surgeon who has extensive experience in this area and has performed many clitoral unhoodings.
11. I have a 15-year-old daughter with enlarged labia minora and it's become an issue with her emotionally as she gets older. She is asking about surgery to make her look more normal. My gynecologist says that it can be done in his office. What is the difference in having this procedure done in his office instead of going to someone who specializes in this procedure?
Many young women and their parents don't realize how important it is to seek the surgical advice and experience of a physician who has performed hundreds of labiaplasty procedures . . . until it is too late. Simply loping off tissue, without regard to symmetry, or latent-tissue retraction after healing, can result in disastrous results. Simply remember, ONCE TISSUE IS REMOVED, IT RARELY CAN BE REPLACED . . . IF EVER. While the family gynecologist is trained in gynecological anatomy and physiology; procedures in labiaplasty or vaginoplasty are specialty areas not usually taught during medical training. It is ALWAYS advisable to only proceed with a surgeon skilled in performing numerous labiaplasty or vaginoplasty procedures.
12. Can I have an asymmetrical labia fixed to appear like the other side? If so, is the cost the same as a total labiaplasty?
First, it's important to understand that people develop fairly anatomically symmetrical. This can be said for eyes, ears, limbs, and of course, labia. So, when one side of the labia develops somewhat asymmetrical (something that commonly occurs) it would be very hard to match the irregular side, to the side that is preferred, because of differences in color, labia thickness, and what is termed "rugation" (the ruffled uneven edges of the labia) that occurs at the labia lip. As far as a cost savings, it's much more important to have a labiaplasty procedure that results in asymmetrical labia, then save the small amount of money and be unhappy with the end result. If cost is an issue, there are a number of financing options available that we offer, which will allow a good result without compromising patient satisfaction.
13. I wanted to know if vibrators could be the cause of large labia?
Absolutely not! If a women has enlarged, or asymmetrical labia, it is the result of being born with them and it has nothing to do with vibrators. More importantly, one must understand that a vibrator is used for sexual stimulation of the clitoris—to aid in sexual pleasure, while the labia have no means of providing pleasurable stimulation. The labia minora are not involved in the process of sexual excitement.
14. I have read that after labiaplasty a woman can experience lifelong sexual arousal problems. Is this true?
No!! This is a common fallacy and it is completely wrong. The media, which at times misinterprets accurate medical information, commonly helps propagates this rumor as a means of creating controversy or sensationalism. It is well known MEDICAL FACT that the labia have sensory nerve fibers that ONLY transmit pain sensation, when stretched or torn. There is NO SEXUAL STIMULATION ASSOCIATED WITH THE LABIA MINORA.
15. Is it possible to inject fat around the vagina?
Free fat transfer, or FFT is indeed possible, and some surgeons report success with this technique. Unfortunately, transplanted fat acts in varying ways in different patients and it's largely a matter of technique to achieve good success. Because of this, there is a large amount of evidence that in the majority of cases, fat can be reabsorbed over a period of time and leave the area as it was before.
16. Is there a procedure to make my clitoris larger or more exposed for greater sensitivity?
The size of the clitoral node (clitoris) cannot be increased
and is homologous (the same as the penis). Thus size is unrelated to increased
17. If dissolvable stitches are used when do they typically dissolve?
Dissolvable sutures are used exclusively in labiaplasty. Depending on the specific type of suture (there are a few different types), and the location of the suture, they typically dissolve at 7 – 21 days (some dissolve in 7-10 days), allowing tissues to heal in the most natural way.
18. A fatty mound of tissue bulges out from my pubic region, giving me a more manly appearance in underwear and form-fitting clothes. I'I'm told it's my mons pubis. Is there a way to liposuction this area?
As women age, this area, the Mons Pubis, tends to gain body mass (fat). Liposuction is possible, but the results are often undesirable and vary too greatly from patient to patient. Much of this is because there is an excess amount of fatty tissue in the general area of the lower abdomen, not just in the Mons Pubis region, and this can lead to additional complications.
19. I ride horses frequently. Can you tell me how long I'd have to refrain from riding?
Depending on the extent of surgery, and how rigorous the riding sessions are, it's recommended that you refrain from riding for at least three weeks.
20. What types of pre-surgery visits or consultations are necessary? Can they be done in one trip, or will it require two or more?
Most women fly in the day before surgery. At that time, a complete history is taken, including a physical; fluids are drawn for lab analysis; and they'll be a full review of consent forms and other pre-surgery documents. Also at that time, digital photos will be taken for use in a collaborative session to custom design the "look" that the patient desires.
Typically, patients stay overnight in one of several hotels with which we have working agreements. The surgery is scheduled for the following morning.
Your surgeon will see you the next morning before you depart on your return trip to make sure everything is as it should be. After labiaplasty you can return to work or normal activity in about 3 - 4 days. If you have both labiaplasty and vaginoplasty performed (combo surgery) it's usually recommended that you don't return to normal activity for at least 6 - 7 days. We recommend a 6-week postoperative visit, but in many instances this isn't possible. In those instances (90 % of patients are from out of state), a digital photo and follow up phone consult is the norm. The patient shouldn't use Tampex, wear constricting undergarments such as thongs, and refrain from sexual intercourse for at least 6 weeks so the area can heal normally. As with any surgery, complete healing is usually 3 months.
21. How far in advance must I schedule my surgery?
Typically a 72-hour notice to schedule surgery to come in for the pre-surgical consult (see question above concerning visits and pre op procedures). Or, patients may simply schedule their surgery in advance, up to one month away.
22. How soon after my surgery can I resume normal sexual intercourse?
Your surgeon consults with each patient on this topic. Depending on a number of factors including age and extent of surgery, normal sexual relations can usually be resumed in 6 to 8 weeks.
23. What is considered normal labia size?
"Normal" labia size is whatever you choose, based on your own self-esteem. If you're happy with your existing labia, whether symmetrical, or asymmetrical, and you have no problems with the way they look, then, in your case, "normal" labia is whatever you choose, or accept. The point to remember is that with labiaplasty, you can literally pick and choose the size or shape of your labia, and elect to have they anatomically reformed, if you wish.
24. I would specifically like to know if vaginoplasty and labiaplasty can be done at the same time—and is there a cost savings?
Combination Labiaplasty (reduction & beautification) & Vaginoplasty (rejuvenation & tightening) can be performed at the same time, and the cost is markedly less than the single combined price of having each done separately.
25. Can I send digital pictures to do a phone consultation and then fly down for the preoperative consult before surgery?
Because 90 % of patients come from out of state (often out of the country), your surgeon will have extensive phone and e-mail consultations with you prior to booking a procedure. Part of this process sometimes involves the viewing of a patient's photos prior to them coming in for a face-to-face consult.
26. I have read that some surgeons do labiaplasty surgery by laser while others use a scalpel. Which is better?
Depending on the individual surgeon's preference, some use lasers and others use scalpels. Others use Iris Scissors for labiaplasty (the same instrument typically used for eye surgery (Blepharoplasty), and face-lifts (Rhytidectomy). While the laser is fine for long straight incisions it doesn't leave the natural edge that an Iris Scissor does, which makes the labia look normal when the surgery is finished. When working on the labia, and making the correct incisions, in the right areas, there is rarely any apparent visible scarring.
27. I've read about different labiaplasty surgical methods such as laser versus Iris scissors. As I understand it there are differences in the procedure and results. Can you explain this to me?
What labiaplasty surgery is all about is creating or recreating small, beautiful, comfortable labia minora. The bottom line is the outcome . . . the destination, not the journey. First, if a laser was so much better, than why isn't it used for other cosmetic procedures such as facelifts, eyes, ears, breast augmentation, and most other aesthetic procedures. The answer is simple; creating the most naturally appearing end result comes with cosmetic iris scissors. Yes, lasers make nice straight incisions. The problem is, there are few, if any straight lines on the human body. There is no difference in recuperation time. Back to work or school in 3 days. Your surgery generally looks good at 4 weeks and you feel good at 6 weeks. In most cases, the reason a laser is used for labiaplasty is because it's far quicker a procedure, and easier for the surgeon.

The Revealing of Jennifer Gooch Hummer
This fairy godmother loves to present debut novelists and their books, and it's with special pleasure that TDW features Jennifer Gooch Hummer with her coming-of-age story of Girl Unmoored.
Why special? First there is Jennifer's description of the book:
"Girl Unmoored is about friendship. Deep, loyal friendship. The kind that supersedes family. The kind that keeps you anchored when everything else is falling apart. The kind that can save you."
Then there are the [true] glowing, heartfelt raves:
"Love, loss, and the coming of age of one remarkable girl blaze through this haunting debut like a shooting star you'd wish upon. It's tough and tender, funny and smart, and it frankly took my breath away. I loved it."
— Caroline Leavitt, New York Times bestselling author of Pictures of You
"With stunning emotional honesty, Girl Unmoored shaves away layers of innocence to reveal the true meaning of love… Effortlessly funny and poignant, Jennifer Gooch Hummer's masterful debut offers surprises until the very end – a must-read!"
— Elise Allen, New York Times bestselling co-author of Elixir and author of Populazzi
"This book sneaks up on you. One moment you're laughing at the quick wit and the next you can't swallow down the lump in your throat. An intimate story of the entanglement of love and loss, Girl Unmoored breaks through the wall around your heart, giving it room to expand."
— Susan Henderson, bestselling author of Up from the Blue
"From the shadows of loss and uncertainty to the ultimate act of forgiveness, Girl Unmoored is a uniquely rendered and quirky coming-of-age tale that will break your heart one minute and have you laughing out loud the next."
— Beth Hoffman, New York Times bestselling author of Saving CeeCee Honeycutt
"Fierce, funny, deeply eloquent, and unerringly honest, Girl Unmoored is all four courses and dessert. What a dazzling, satisfying novel!"
— Gwendolen Gross, bestselling author of The Orphan Sister
In fact, here's an entire page of reviews.
And, perhaps the pièce de résistance, Girl Unmoored recently won Paris Book Festival Award 2012, Best YA Fiction.
The synopsis:
Apron Bramhall has come unmoored. Fortunately, she's about to be saved by Jesus. Not that Jesus—the actor who plays him in Jesus Christ Superstar. Apron is desperate to avoid the look-alike Mike, who's suddenly everywhere, until she's stuck in church with him one day. Then something happens—Apron's broken teenage heart blinks on for the first time since she's been adrift. Mike and his boyfriend, Chad, offer her a summer job in their flower store, and Apron's world seems to calm. But when she uncovers Chad's secret, stormy seas return. Apron starts to see things the adults around her fail to—like what love really means, and who is paying too much for it.
Apron has come unmoored, but now she'll need to take the helm if she's to get herself and those she loves to safe harbor.

text: Since the latest update I cannot get voicemail to work correctly from google voice. About 1/4 of the time it will give the standard Voice greeting (not the personalized one i have it set to), and the rest of the time the Verizon message "the number has been changed, disconnected, or not in service". Anyone else have this problem? I have deactivated/activated from google voice instructions multiple times with no effect and changed/saved settings to try to kickstart something.

Some references to find it: It's located in the NE corner of the Anatolian Peninsula, on the slopes of the Zigana Mountains in the Pontic Alps, 200 km. west of Batumi, Georgia, and 50 km. south of the legendary Trabzon (see "Empire of Trebizond"), which in turn lies in the southeastern coast of the Black Sea. You might remember that ancient greeks called it the "Ponto Euxino", from which derives the "Pontic Alps" in which such jewel is located.
As the tale go, two hermites, Barnabus and Sophronius, encountered here an icon of a caucasian Black Madonna, from which probably might derive the name Sümela (melas = "dark" or "black" in pontic greek). Be it true or not, Sümela Monastery was constructed in this very cliff of 1200 mts. above the sea level and 300 to the valley, in the year 386 AD during the reign of the Emperor Theodosius I.
Since then, many others rulers crafted this valuable archeological site. You can find more info here and here.

Hair Scare
12 comments:
- Lindsay Schultz said...
Yea for customer service! Ugh.
Just by attempting any salon-made hairstyle you are braver than I. We have all had at least one Brunhilda. She either makes you stronger, or phobic (sigh).
- September 12, 2011 at 5:19 PM
- Angela@BeggingTheAnswer said...
@Lindsay - I'm leaning towards phobic. I think I'll wait another 6 months to get my hair done thankyouverymuch.
- September 12, 2011 at 5:27 PM
- Janie Jones said...
Oooooh. *Cringes* Thankfully, I do not ever, ever, ever color my hair, but I have had one of those cuts. I did call back and complain, alternating between shouting, crying and threatening death or worse. The manager asked me to come back in and she gave me a refund and tried to fix my hair, but the first "Brunhilda" cut it so short there was little to repair short of an all over buzz cut.
You have my total sympathy.
- September 12, 2011 at 8:38 PM
- Marianna Annadanna said...
Ahrg! I hate trying to find the perfect salon in a decent price range. I'm sorry you had a shitty time, but i"m glad you got it fixed. Alls well that ends well, right?
- September 12, 2011 at 9:05 PM
- Angela@BeggingTheAnswer said...
@Janie - that is exactly why I have a fear of short hair. The shortest mine has ever been was just above my shoulders, and I had a freak-out.
@Marianna - At least it made for good blog fodder!
- September 12, 2011 at 9:52 PM
- Fox in the City said...
Ah, that sucks. I love having my hair coloured and cut but that sort of an experience would just ruin it. Thank goodness it is fixed and you feel great about it again.
Due to budget constraints I have not been able to get my hair coloured in over a year. I have done it at home myself a few times but it is just not the same.
- September 12, 2011 at 9:59 PM
- Jess said...
I am pretty sure I have had my hair done by Brunhilda's evil sister! I am so lazy about getting my hair done for this very reason.
I am glad you got your hair fixed. Just found your blog! New follower :)
- September 13, 2011 at 2:25 AM
- Angela@BeggingTheAnswer said...
@Fox In The City - I usually love getting my hair colored, even though I don't do it that much. But I'm terrified to try to do it at home.
@Jess - Thanks for following! Hope to see you around!
- September 13, 2011 at 8:13 AM
That sucks. I know I'm a guy, but this has happened to me a couple of times, usually when I'm finding a new place after moving to a new city. I guess it's easier for guys, but only because shaving a head down after a bad haircut is always an option.
- September 13, 2011 at 8:38 AM
- Angela@BeggingTheAnswer said...
@Joshua - I've lived in a lot of cities, and trying to find a new stylist each time sucks. You're right though, at least you can shave your head if things get really bad.
- September 13, 2011 at 8:46 AM
You're at least going to go back and kick Brunhilda in the junk, right? What a meanie.
- September 13, 2011 at 9:24 AM
- Angela@BeggingTheAnswer said...
@Mamamash - I just hope she was having a bad day and isn't that horrible to every one. I'm too soft.

The first one was when I was taking our fire extinguishers to be checked in the harbour here in our southern getaway. I was on my own (other half being off on a Polish-ing trip), and so I arrived at the marina office huffing and puffing somewhat as I was carrying two rather hefty fire blasters (or brandblussers as they are called here).
|My type of
fire blaster
A burly individual met me at the entrance and kindly helped me down into the bowels of the boat that serves as the harbour office. Unfortunately, he had such a strong Zeeland accent, I couldn't make out a word he said. Everything that came out of his mouth sounded as if it had been through a tumble drier first before being ejected. Still I got the message that I should ask the man 'through there' (this was ascertained by means of a pointy finger - his, not mine) how long it would take.
Following the line of the finger, the man 'through there' proved to be a very congenial soul dressed in reliable blue overalls who told me I could safely go shopping and come back later for my extinguishers. He even found me a felt-tip pen to write the name of our boat on them, which I thought was very decent of him. Throughout this exchange we had been conversing in Dutch, but then he came very close to me and whispered "Can I hear that you are English?", "Yes" I whispered back conspiratorially. And from then on we were best friends.
My new bosom buddy switched immediately to English and proceeded to tell me he was a member of an Irish Celtic music group and that he'd been to Ireland about forty times to perform there with his band. I was duly amazed and genuinely impressed that a Dutch band playing Irish Celtic music should be invited to perform in Ireland. Not only that, he told me they'd been asked to go to America and perform there too, the American fans not actually realising they weren't even Irish. Well, I was tickled pink by his story and we shook hands and parted with big smiles, good cheer and promises to see each other at their next concert.
|Sea-going ships docked near Terneuzen
Another encounter occurred a few days ago when we took a drive to the dock areas at Terneuzen and met a man there who was barge spotting just as we were (one of our favourite pastimes). It transpired he came from a skipper's family like Koos and the two of them had very similar backgrounds and educations. The funny part of it for me was that they both recognised each other as Skippers' 'children' from Skippers' families immediately. The Netherlands is a small country with a small population, many of whom are connected to the barging world which tends to remain within certain families.
This is something I find fascinating as it's like being part of a fraternity and this kind of 'recognition' happens pretty frequently. Many is the time Koos will give his name and his conversation partner will ask "Are you one of the X Fernhout's? From the Skipper's world?" And then they will find loads in common and chat like brothers. It seems this man was quite a linguist too as he spoke about seven languages including Afrikaans, which he tested out on me. I didn't like to tell him my Dutch is a whole lot better than its South African equivalent. He was also a musician, a technician, an artist and traveller - quite a surprise for someone who looked as if he'd be quite at home on a commercial fishing vessel... I know - books, covers and all that.
|Barge & boat watching on the canal near
Maybe it's part of why the Dutch really are different. Or maybe it's just true everywhere if people are open to each other.

Indiana is one of the places I consider home. For the past 20 years it is where my family has been. It is a beautiful, peaceful, underrated state. One of my favorite things to do is to go driving out in the country, especially in the early hours of the day, when the world is just starting to wake up.
This is a painting of a beautiful Indiana farm, near my parent's home.

|New Community Page for my blog on Facebook!
I decided to build up a new connection to make it easier for people to find my blog, and to keep up to speed about new blog entries I write.
So from now on, there is an Official Community Page for my "For now ..." blog on Facebook:
If you are on Facebook, and want to keep in touch with my blog entries, simply go to the page and click the "Like" button. And please also feel free to share the page with people you know that might be interested to check out my blog, too.
As of presumably tomorrow (Sunday) afternoon or early evening (time zone: GMT +1), you will find all the blogs I wrote in English and also German listed up in chronological order there, with a short summary on what the respective blog is about.
New blog entries will be announced, as usual, via my Twitter account, and in a short note on my regular FB page, too - but the FB Community Page will be my "blog information headquarters" there from now on.
I'd be happy if you (and you ... and you, too, of course!) would join the fun there, by Like-ing the page, and by also leaving a comment there, if something comes to mind.
Blog you soon :-)!

Winter in all it's glory is here! As an adult I sometimes have a hard time embracing
this time of year; the cold, the winter driving, dealing with snow days and delays, ice!
However, when I am at the school the excitement and love that the children have for this season seems to melt away all my adult grumblings and I am excited to explore the season along with the children.
As it has been bitterly cold on some of these days, and although we try to go out in all weather, some days when we can't we try to come up with ways for the children to experience winter not only outside, but also inside. Even when we do get outside, it is fun to bring the two worlds together.
I had filled the sensory bin with snow when we got back from break. For a week the children loved coloring and exploring the snow inside.
Some of the children challenged themselves to use multiple pipettes while working, a wonderful way to work those fine motor skills!
They also had to share a lot as it was a small space with a lot of friends gathered around. They really impressed me with their conversations, but also asking each other to share colors and tools.
I was offered many snow cones for the tasting.
and the dinosaurs and sea animals also made it into the arctic snow.
The next week the sensory bin was filled with Cloud Dough, another favorite of the kids.
It is like playing with sand, but looks like snow!
The sifter fascinated the kids
Ice cream anyone or how about ice skating
Tricia came up with a fun activity of taking wax paper and putting it under our feet and skating around the room. It was surprising how much it was like ice skating and the kids loved it!
Some of the children had to support each other as they went it was that slippery!
We not only ice skated indoors, but also had a snowball fight indoors!
No one was off limits, even I got hit with several snowballs.
Oh, and of course every classroom needs an indoor snowman, though I think the it looks a little more like a snow bear.

"Rat Girl Gets Married"
What lesson is the author trying to convey by telling this tale?
11 comments:
I think the mother and father want rat girl to marry the strongest husband because she wants somebody good for her and she went out looking for that strong husband and she found him and i know that rat girl wants to marry him too and i think the father wants a son in law and they want a strong man for her to take care of her. the author wants rat girl to have a strong husband because he wants a man that can take care of her in case of emergency.ReplyDelete
Why is the mom trying to find a strong rat boy to marry rat girl, because the mom thinks the rat girl will not take care of herself. The author is saying to marry some one who is tuff. I will take care of her.ReplyDelete
I think the parents of rat girl want rat girl to marry the strongest boyReplyDelete
because he can tack good care of her an To protect rat girl.
The author teach the girls and the boys to married a tough girls or boys so you can be protected.ReplyDelete
Because her parents wanted her to be protected in case something go wrong, her strong husband will be there. And her mother went out to find a different husband.
The author is saying marry someone that's good for you and that help out. and that he can take care of her family.ReplyDelete
- AnthonyFebruary 1, 2010 at 2:35 PM
the author is saying to marry some one that will take care you and support you.ReplyDelete
The lesson the author is trying to say is that you should marry the strongest man so he can help out around the house and go out to get stuff, why the mom watch the baby while the father go get the milk and the baby food,and the juice and the dippers and the baby wipes and the bottles for the baby.ReplyDelete
The author is telling us that rat girl need to be marry to a strong man who can always help her and take care of her.ReplyDelete
- AsiannaFebruary 1, 2010 at 2:38 PM
The author is trying to say ... that rat girl should be able to marry whoever she wants, also rat girls parents don`t know that rat boy is strong and can be a good strong husband for rat girl.ReplyDelete
Rat girl mom want rat girl to marry the strongest . So first she ask the sun says he is not the strongest thing on earth . She ask the wall the wall says he is not the strongest thing on earth he says rat boy can eat through him and rat girl and rat boy get marriedReplyDelete
I think that the author is telling us that you should think about who you are going to marry first. then you ask, like when , mama rat ask the sun , cloud ,wind ,wall, and she found the strongest is the one that rat girl wanted to marry. the only reason that they want the strongest is so he can help in the house.ReplyDelete

Well, well. That's interesting. The post going by the above title was scrubbed from the blog. Maybe it's just a computer glitch. Anyway, my "I-9" went through without further questions. So, whatever. It simply doesn't matter. I now continue with other aspects of tax withholding, setting up direct deposits, etc…
I had one other experience like this. My "Shadow" and I were texting back and forth for the first time ever not all that long ago. Then his phone was stolen. That texting "conversation" was shown to the police by the thief (perhaps she said she "found it") as it looked – how to say it? – suspicious. It contained the name and number of a guy in Main State's Political-Military Affairs, a guy with a six billion dollar budget who coordinates between the Pentagon and various… um… groups, and who dreams up and runs drug and gun and security related programs in various countries (and whose successor is now an Obama appointee, an Ambassador now with no direct superior perhaps for the rest of the Trump presidency…). That's one less level between the President and some… um… programs… It was a predecessor directing this office who had written me a two page official letter already decades ago. Anyway, the police called my "Shadow" to come pick up his phone. He told me it was totally scrubbed and unusable. But, he was not detained or questioned. You gotta love that.
But now there is another developing problem, scrubbed phone or not, since my "Shadow", seemingly following up on that texting, began sending me instantaneously traceable money-orders, each for $100. I just now got the fourth one.
- On the one hand: Is he doing reparation for having become my "Shadow" way back in the day (that's not the kind of reparation I want at all)? Or is he helping out a priest whom he considers to be poor (though I'm not in dire straits at all)? Either of those would, I guess, be well-intentioned. And I very much appreciate that. Very thoughtful. Very kind.
- On the other hand: Perhaps someone might form an opinion that this is a result of blackmail or extortion against him on my part. That's simply not the case either. As I get to know him better, I wish him the best. And I would anyway. After all, he's my "Shadow." And anyway, I always report this kind of "personal gift" on the blog, for-the-record, as is my practice. But he also knows that. Back to number one?
- But it would also be good for him to stop this money-order thing, as it could also look like bribery on his part, kind of a reverse blackmail/extortion, so that, in receiving said monies, I had better keep my mouth shut, or else, from any number of directions. The question to a growing number of people would then be, about what is he so concerned? So, I suggest to my "Shadow" that the money-order thing just stops in the best interests of everyone however good and excellent and totally innocent the intentions have been in providing these monies.
Anyway, he knows what I want, and it's not from him, it's from P.-M. of Main State. I still want that. It would put a kind of double reverse on civil effects of big drug-money concerns as I entrench myself in cleaning up some of that bit of evil in this region.

Shop stewards represent members of trade unions at the working place and offer invaluable assurance to employees. Many of these will be elected this Autumn and JHL, the Trade Union for the Public and Welfare Sectors is now looking for candidates to fulfill this responsibility.
The role of a shop steward is crucial when it comes to defending the rights of employees. He or she is the first person to contact if work-related problems should arise.
The main task of a shop steward is to see that the collective agreement is followed and that all members are getting what the agreement stipulates, like the right salary, overtime pay and holidays.
The shop steward negotiates, makes agreements, mediates and passes on information between employees and employer.
A shop steward is elected by the JHL local club or in a meeting organised at the working place. If there are more than one candidates, there may be a ballot. Only the JHL members concerned can participate in the elections.
The term of a shop steward is from two to four years.
As the task can create friction with the employer, the collective agreements give a special employment protection for a shop steward. It is forbidden to transfer the shop steward to a job with lower a salary or make him or her redundant.
A shop steward can be made redundant only if a majority of those, who he or she represents, give their permission or when the work ends completely and there is no other suitable work available.
This employment protection lasts for six months after the shop steward ceases in this position. Even those who are candidates for shop steward, enjoy employment protection three months before the elections.
The task of the shop steward can be carried out during working time and he or she has also the right to participate in Union training.

(Images: †#€ ßΩ∂†M∂И; one of many beautiful abandoned houses in the UK)
For most people, a home is so much more than a convenient shelter from the elements. It's a place for them to project something about themselves, a tiny fragment of their souls. That's why abandoned houses seem so uniquely haunting. We're not just seeing a forgotten building; we're seeing the remnants of someone's life.
Diverse as the following abandoned houses may be, each still carries a tiny part of their former owners. A link back to times, both good and bad, that have now been lost forever.
Abandoned Château Lumière, France
(Images: LulaTaHula; a haunting abandoned mansion in France)
A vast, gated residence, the abandoned Château Lumière in France is like something out of a Dickens novel. Vast, white walls gracefully slide up into the sky, their windows dark and shuttered. Inside the abandoned house, grand hallways and marble staircases stand empty, as if waiting for some vibrant party that will never be held. The grounds are overgrown, and every surface in the mansion is covered with a thick layer of dust. You half expect to see Mrs Havisham wandering the corridors, clad in her tattered wedding dress.
With its largely intact interior, the abandoned Château Lumière is today a favourite spot for urban explorers and photographers, keen to catch a glimpse of some bygone age. It may be locked away behind an iron gate and left to go to ruin, but in a strange way, Château Lumière has found a second life, even in the grip of decay.
Abandoned Manor House, France
(Images: Dan Raven – Odin's Raven Photography; inside an abandoned French manor house)
If the Château Lumière has fallen into a graceful kind of airless death, this unnamed manor house has seemingly met a more-violent end. A grand French estate in which children once played while ladies entertained, it today looks like a bombsite. Windows have been smashed, walls blown inwards, and ceilings collapsed. Inside is a world of damp, decay and rubble.
What makes this abandoned mansion so haunting, though, is how much has been left behind. Old children's bicycles from before the invention of rubber tires lie in a tangled heap on one floor. Prayer books, sewing machines and statues of the Virgin all cling onto life, despite being surrounded by death. While most abandoned mansions are cleared out before their occupants finally leave, this one was seemingly left in a nearly-normal state, like the Mary Celeste of French country homes, before being trashed. What great tragedy caused the family to flee is something we simply no longer know.
Abandoned Thornseat Lodge Near Sheffield, England
(Images: richboxfrenzy; Thornseat Lodge, a grand abandoned house outside Sheffield, UK)
A grand old hunting lodge on the fringes of South Yorkshire, Thornseat Lodge was once where the high and mighty of Sheffield society went to play. Built in 1855 for the prominent steel-maker William Jessop, this elegant abandoned house once saw shooting parties unmatched nearly anywhere in the region.
Yet if the Victorians who attended these glittering events could see it today, they likely wouldn't even recognize it. Broken down, part-collapsed, and wholly unloved, Thornseat Lodge is now just another eerie ruin of Sheffield's industrial past.
Not that the Jessop family held onto the lodge until its end. In the 1930s, the now abandoned house was sold and converted into a children's home that was both beautiful and bleak. It stayed that way right up until the 1980s, when it was finally closed down. Now little more than a derelict wreck, Thornseat Lodge is a reminder that nothing – no matter how grand – lasts forever.
Creepy Abandoned House in Belgium
(Images: olavXO; exploring a creepy abandoned house in Belgium)
Sometimes, the lack of available information about a place can make it all the more-intriguing. A case in point might be this long abandoned house somewhere in Belgium. Smaller than the previous entries on this list, the forgotten detached home is at once beautiful, claustrophobic, and undeniably creepy.
Part of this comes from the clash of eras you can see. On the one hand, sepia photographs still sit on mantelpieces as old wooden chairs wait beside iron fireplaces. On the other, piles of modern junk mail litter the hall, and fresh flowers still seem to stand on the dining table. Urban explorers seeking to brighten up the scene, perhaps? The effect is like stepping into a house that is at once lost in the past, and stuck in the present. In many old houses, it is easy to imagine that you can feel the ghosts of bygone eras watching you. In this particular instance, it feels like the ghost could be the house itself.
Abandoned Manor House, UK
(Images: †#€ ßΩ∂†M∂И; an abandoned manor house in England)
Somewhere in Britain lies this long-forgotten relic of a previous time. An imposing stone mansion set in the middle of its own patch of land, it appears from the outside to have been merely shuttered for a short time. Inside, on the other hand, is a whole other matter. The chipped paint, peeling wallpaper and ruined ceilings speak less of somewhere preserved, and more of somewhere left to rot for reasons unknown.
How the building came to be in this state is anyone's guess. The abandoned house looks like it could have been built anywhere between several decades and a couple of centuries ago. The facade is foreboding, as if the house itself is about to scold you for some offence. It's the sort of building stern governesses inhabit in Victorian literature… but also the sort that often sees conversion into modern collections of four or six rental apartments. For some reason, that hasn't happened here. The abandoned mansion continues to decay, waiting for redevelopment or the wrecking ball.
Abandoned Mansion, St Petersburg, Russia
(Images: Pavel Kirrilov; an abandoned mansion in St Petersburg, Russia)
Western Europe does not, of course, have a monopoly on grand mansions. In the Imperial era, Russia's ruling class threw up vast palaces and ornately-decorated mansions to rival Britain and France in opulence. While many have now been reoccupied in post-Soviet times, not all have regained their former glory. Some, such as this empty mansion in St Petersburg, have simply been left behind. Frozen forever in a now long-gone past.
As with others in this article, the exact story behind this grand abandoned house is unknown. What's not in doubt, however, is its beauty. The chandeliers, the ornate decorations on the white plaster walls, the grand, wood-paneled rooms… all add up to somewhere that was once an important home. It also makes you wonder uneasily about what led to its emptiness. Whatever its secrets, this abandoned house seems to be holding onto them.
Abandoned Seward House, New Jersey, USA
(Images: Justin Gurbisz; the abandoned Seward House in Morris, NJ)
Thanks to the country's relatively-short history, mansions in the USA have tended to be of an altogether different stripe to those in Europe. This abandoned mansion in New Jersey may not be as elegant as some of the European entries on this list, but it's still extremely grand, and wonderfully haunting.
Revealed to be the Seward House in Morris, New Jersey, the elegant stone-built home was built for a prominent gentleman farmer with extensive business connections in New York City. The building is listed on the National Register of Historic Places as an example of a grand farmhouse built in the Italianate style, which was soon eclipsed in popularity by Second Empire.
Taken when the abandoned house was in a state of heavy decay, these photos show a building in the last stages of its life. Gone are all mementos of the past, replaced instead by dust and damp and mould. Its structure is collapsing, everything has been stripped out. It's the idea of a house broken down to only its shell – an empty vessel for living in, nothing more. These photos were taken in 2007, and it's hoped the Seward House may have been on the brink of restoration.
Abandoned Row Houses in Camden, New Jersey, USA
(Image: Blake Bolinger; abandoned row houses define some areas of Camden, NJ)
Of course, not every old home full of memories was once a mansion. Welcome to Camden, New Jersey, one of the most-depressed and crime-ridden cities in the United States. As a result of deindustrialization, migration of people from inner-cities to the suburbs, shortage in government funding and other issues, large tracts of the city have been left empty. As a result, Camden is now home to many depressed neighbourhoods, dangerous streets and abandoned houses.
Many of the homes featured in these pictures are all the more remarkable for being quite unremarkable. Small, narrow and cramped, these are largely basic places, despite instances of fine detailing in their architecture. Yet each and every single one stands as a monument to lives lived and people long forgotten. In the endless parade of empty homes in Camden, you can read the story of a once-thriving city driven to the brink of despair. The families that once made these places seem alive are now long gone. With them seems to have gone the hopes and dreams of their entire neighbourhoods.
The Abandoned Victorian Houses in Brush Park, Detroit
(Images: Juan N Only – JuanNOnly.com; the abandoned mansions of Brush Park, Detroit )
Today, fair or not, Detroit has become a byword for urban decay. But this wasn't always the case. Only a few short decades ago, Motor City was at the epicentre of a money-making whirlwind, brought on by America's booming manufacturing industry. Even as far back as the mid-19th century, the city was doing well enough for entrepreneur Edmund Brush to create an entire, 24-block neighborhood of 300 mansions.
Built in Victorian, Romanesque and Second Empire styles, Brush Park's grand mansions were soon the envy of all Detroiters. Yet this dream of an upscale world couldn't last. Even before the rest of Motor City fell on hard times, Brush Park was coming crashing down to reality. The advent of motorcars and trolleys were allowing the wealthy to live much further away from city centres, and the Great Depression was impoverishing many more. By the postwar period, the writing was on the wall.
Fast forward to 2016, and Brush Park is little more than a glorious set of opulent ruins. While local regeneration efforts are saving some of its abandoned mansions, many more have been demolished, leaving vast empty city blocks, while others are crumbling to the ground.
Abandoned Croft, Scotland
(Images: Colin MacInnes; an abandoned croft in the Scottish Highlands)
Rising out the frozen wilds of Scotland's moors like a spectre from a Gothic novel is this old farmhouse. Made of stone, miles from anywhere, and looking like it was abandoned many, many decades ago, this forgotten building is both beautiful and haunting.
The outside is humble in the extreme. A single story dwelling with small windows and a low roof, the abandoned croft is typical of the sort of dwellings popular a hundred years or so ago, which, in many cases, endure today. Inside there's even an semi-intact fireplace; once the only source of warmth from the bleak Scottish winters. Nonetheless, the setting is undoubtedly photogenic. In the heart of Scotland's rugged, visually stunning countryside, it's the sort of place you can only imagine living.
Given its distance from anywhere and general state of decay, it seems unlikely this abandoned house will be regenerated any time soon. Instead, it will stand as a monument to the people who eked out an existence here many years ago, like the countless other ruined crofts that haunt this wild landscape.

Section - Europe
~People travel to faraway places to watch, in fascination, the kind of people they ignore at home~
I recently made a trip down to Berchtesgaden National Park, Southern Germany and I was in complete awe while i was there. The beautiful photos i researched online before I went does not compare to seeing it with your own two eyeballs. If you are into nature, enjoy the beautiful sweeping mountains towering over beautiful lakes, or hiking then this is a must to add to your bucket list of places to travel to.
Neuschwanstein Castle is a Romanesque dramatic palace with lofty fairy tale towers. The palace served as a model for the Sleeping Beauty Castle of Disneyland. Without a doubt, one of the most visited tourist attractions in all of Germany. Over 1.4 million visitors a year flock to this lavish castle. You are thinking, just for a castle? Well, my friend, when you set eyes on this beauty then you will know why. It is absolutely stunning and once you go inside for a tour, the attention to detail and the paintings on the walls are as magnificent as the exterior of the castle.
Brussels is an absolutely beautiful city. The architecture is amazing, the things to do and see, oh and the Belgian waffles were to die for. If you ever make it here and only had one spot to check out, the Grand Place and get a Belgian waffle.
As I'm typing this, I have an incredible view from the "Cloefe" viewpoint of the Saar bow or Saarschliefe they like to call it. Basically, a beautiful horse bend of the Saar river. This is my first stop of exploring the state of Saarland.

text: I'll pick up the megaphone once again: We don't "babysit" our kids, we raise them. It's far to typical a response from men who haven't fully taken a hold of what being a father means. They are still trying to live a single life (or at least childless) life and passing off the day-to-day raising of the kids to their wife. Not only is this not fair to their wife, it's not fair to their kids! I hear it all time, "Sorry, I can't hang out tonight, I have to babysit the kids". How do we think it...Continue reading

Virtualization Nation,
If you're trying to run Virtual Server R2 SP1 on Window Server 2008 Beta 3, it does work. However, there are three steps for success. You need to:
- Add the IIS role with the correct settings for Virtual Server.
- Install Virtual Server R2 SP1.
- Run IE elevated as an Administrator to access the Virtual Server Administration Page. To run IE elevated, right click on IE and select Run as Administrator. (BTW: If you don't do this, IE will quit with an error. This is a known issue and a fix is being investigated.)
Since the first step, adding the IIS role, requires specific settings to be enabled, I thought I'd cover this first step in detail. The second and third steps are straightforward and require nothing special. So, below I've provided step-by-step instructions for configuring IIS, the correct settings and included screen shots.
These installation instructions are for running Virtual Server R2 SP1 on a full installation of Windows Server 2008 Beta 3, not a server core installation. I'll cover that in a future blog.
To Enable IIS and the right settings here are the steps you need to take.
1. Go to the Start Menu and select Server Manager.
2. Under Roles Summary click Add Roles.
3. You will now be presented with the Select Server Roles screen. Select Web Server (IIS).
4. Click Next.
5. A dialog will be displayed telling you that IIS has dependencies that need to be installed as well. Click Add Required Features.
6. You will now see a screen called Select Role Services where you can select which IIS services you want enabled. Here are the required IIS services for Virtual Server.
Under Common Http Features enable:
- Static Content
- Default Document
- Directory Browsing
- HTTP Errors
Under Application Development Features enable:
Under Health and Diagnostics enable:
- HTTP Logging
- Request Monitor
Under Security enable:
- Windows Authentication
Under Performance Features enable:
- Static Content Compression
Under Management Tools enable:
- IIS 6 Management Console
- IIS 6 Management Compatibility
- IIS 6 Metabase Compatibility
7. Once you've enabled all of the settings above, click Next.
8. You'll be presented with the confirmation screen. Click Install and the installation will begin.
9. After about a minute, the role has been added and you'll see that the installation was successful. You can click Close.
10. After closing the last window you'll now see that the Web Server (IIS) appears in the Roles Summary.

Sam turned 8 months on October 5th. Shortly after, he officially moved into his own room in his pack'n'play. We moved him over way later than we would have thought, but he was moved into his crib two weeks later. He started riding in shopping carts sitting up. He also started making a crazy face in which he sucks in his top lip. In late September he started sitting skew legged and getting up on all fours. He moved to inch worm crawling just before turning 8 months, and started crawling two days after turning 8 months. A whole new world!
He started saying ba ba in late September. He started being able to self feed himself Cheerios and willingly ate from a spoon (yay!). Lastly, kinda gross, but with all the new foods, he switched to having adult smelling poops early October. Kind of a short update, but we're way behind and he growing so fast! Instead, he are some fun pictures from that month:

Project Redux!
I have some fun past projects I'm planning to post here. I'm going to tag them all as project-redux and also have a naming convention for post titles - "Project Redux: _____" First, I'll probably do some re-posts from my collaborative blog with my sister - Two Oh Oh Eight Project(ion)s (we are working on updating the title) since the photos are all ready to go. Then I'm going to start delving into the rest armed with my new DSLR (at least for the ones I haven't given away). If you have requests for anything specific, comment away! Otherwise, I'll probably be pretty random about it.

MORRIS – The Grundy County Sheriff's Office announced Friday that it received a $1700.00 donation from the ONEOK Foundation. The office said the donation would go towards the purchase of an automated external defibrillator.
"The new AED will be replacing an older unit that was pulled out of service at the Grundy County Courthouse," the press release on the sheriff's office Facebook page read.
According to the press release, the American Heart Association reports sudden cardiac arrest kills more people every year than strokes, AIDS and breast cancer, and a key to fighting it is defibrillation within a very short period of time from the onset of arrest.
"Having an AED on each floor of the courthouse allows greater accessibility for use should an emergency cardiac situation arise. The Sheriff's Office is extremely grateful to ONEOK for their generosity and for their contributions to Grundy County." said Grundy County Sheriff Kevin Callahan.

James WatzkeCo-Founding Attorney
Attorney James Watzke believes his key to success is the combination of his life experience, strong work ethic, and knowledge of the law. What truly separates him from other attorneys who have only practiced the law is his prior career as a police officer.
Mr. Watzke's experience as a law enforcement officer has offered many benefits to his clients. He understands:
- How cases should be investigated
- The mistakes that are made during an investigation
- The circumstances that can lead to wrongful arrests or a violation of a person's constitutional rights
Additionally, during his career, he mediated thousands of disputes. This ability to negotiate and mediate often highly contentious matters has allowed him to work well with the Courts, as well as opposing counsel, to get successful outcomes for clients.
Mr. Watzke has received extensive leadership training and is able to put those skills into practice as an attorney. This experience has helped him become a leader in the legal field and allowed him to earn a high level of respect in the Oklahoma legal community.
