Seven months ago, Charlie Sheen was on a drug called Charlie Sheen.
Now, Charlie Sheen seems to be on an image rehabilitation tour unofficially dubbed Charlie Sheen 2.0.
At the Emmy Awards on Sunday, he gave his blessing to his former colleagues at "Two and a Half Men," the show from which he was fired in March during what I'll refer to as his Sober Valley Lodge/Warlock Period.
"From the bottom of my heart, I wish you nothing but the best for this upcoming season," he announced. His words said: "Really, good luck, you guys." His facial expressions, however, said: "Really? Am I actually saying this out loud?"
Then, the night after the Emmys, Comedy Central aired its much-hyped, previously recorded roast of Charlie Sheen, during which the "Wall Street" star gamely took every comedic bullet fired straight at his tiger blood-pumping heart, even the jokes that touched on his drug problems and his children.
"I'm Charlie Sheen. And in here burns an eternal fire," he said, gesturing toward his chest. "I just have to remember to keep it away from a crack pipe."
That fire seems much more controlled than the one we saw earlier this year, during the "rock star from Mars" interviews and the less-than-successful Charlie Sheen "Violent Torpedo of Truth" tour. Back then, Charlie Sheen was a raging, out-of-control, pop cultural inferno. Now, he's more like the Yule Log that flickers peacefully on our TV screens every Christmas Eve. (Actually, that may not be the best analogy — the Yule Log at least has one consistent TV gig it can rely on, while Sheen is still trying to nail his down.)
The fact that Sheen seems saner, more sober and less likely to refer to other people as trolls is undoubtedly good for his health. And given the similarly more tame interviews he's recently given on both the "Today" and "Tonight" shows, he's clearly hoping it's also good for his career. But is the public willing to buy the second (or third, depending on who's counting) rebranding of the Charlie Sheen image in less than a year?
The past Emmy nominee is currently trying to regain his spot on the airwaves with a sitcom adaptation of the Adam Sandler movie "Anger Management." Whatever you may think of the guy, one has to admit he's at least smart enough to know that the "winning" routine is going to have to go if he wants to lure a showrunner, cast members and, eventually, a network to the project.
But what shouldn't go, if Sheen has a strong sense of what captivated people about his previous flame-out, is the sense that he's willing to candidly speak his mind. As nuts and often inappropriate as he sounded during his podcasts and off-kilter tweets, many people seemed to respect, on some level, that he was keeping it real. It's hard to think of Sheen as still capable of sticking it to the man when he stands behind an Emmy Awards podium asserting that the makers of "Two and a Half Men" will undoubtedly continue to make "great television."
What Sheen needs to do, in this blog's humble opinion, is — first and foremost — stay off of drugs and away from all prostitutes and goddesses. Then he needs to get back on television on a well-written show that's edgier than "Two and a Half Men."
And later — in the not-too-distant future, after he's thoroughly convinced the public that he's not a powder keg on the verge of imminent explosion — write a tell-all memoir that lays out what really happened during his "Men" days and the bedlam that followed.
Americans admire celebrities who demonstrate guts and honesty. They also admire people who seem to have their personal houses in order. Time will tell if Sheen can manage both.

SCOTTSDALE, Ariz. -- Boccieri Golf announces special summer rates for high-tech indoor lessons at the company's state-of-the-art Research and Performance Center, where from June 1 through September 30 customers pay just $50 per hour (half-off in-season rates) for expert analysis from renowned instructors.
Located at 15816 N. Greenway-Hayden Loop in Scottsdale, the facility boasts an expansive array of instructional tools and club fitting services. Experienced teachers use video analysis to create full player evaluations and recommendations. The offer is designed to help those looking to improve their game while practicing in air-conditioned comfort in a non-intimidating environment.
"Scottsdale is a great golf destination, but with summer weather significantly limiting outside play, we're giving locals an opportunity to get out of the heat and continue to work on their skills," says Stephen Boccieri, President and CEO of Boccieri Golf. "We offer a fun learning environment that will help players of all skill levels lower scores and enjoy the game , and I am always working on new things and enjoy the golfers feedback."
Beyond traditional instruction, the Research and Performance Center's numerous services include:
• Custom Club Fitting - Boccieri Golf representatives precisely analyze golfers' swing characteristics and prescribe equipment for optimal performance; available in a variety of packages that cover every club in the bag
• Science and Motion (SAM) Putt Lab Analysis - Accurate ultrasound measurements of a player's putting stroke are relayed to experienced fitters who use the data to determine specific characteristics that will improve performance; available for standard, belly and other long-shafted models
• Simulator Usage - Measure your performance stats using cutting-edge launch monitors, enjoy a simulated range session or play a round at your convenience in a temperature-controlled environment
• K-VEST - Specially designed vest interacts with the company's software to provide easy-to-read analysis, identifying faults from set up through impact. The system compares 3D data to the world's best PGA, LPGA and Champions Tour players
• K-TRAINER - Two-sensor biofeedback system provides students with real-time auditory, visual and kinesthetic feedback to help eliminate swing faults, improve ball flight, enhance muscle memory and lower scores
• HMT (Head Measurement Technology) - First device of its kind to capture the actual position of the club head at impact, giving the golfer a complete picture of what the club is doing and where the ball is going. Generates reports on head velocity, club path, smash factor, lie, dynamic loft and impact location and much more
Boccieri Golf relocated its headquarters to Scottsdale in late 2011, following six successful years in Ridgefield, CT, where the company established itself as one of the golf industry's most forward thinking brands. Its popular Heavy Putter collection and new Secret Grip lines are leading the charge in counterbalanced equipment and have been adopted by Tour players worldwide.
For more information or to book a fitting appointment please visit www.boccierigolf.com or call 888.788.8374.
About Boccieri Golf
Founded in 2004 by Stephen Boccieri, the company's popular Heavy Putter collection and Control Series line of full-swing products were the first to integrate counter balance principals. This unique approach to club design is proven to benefit golfers of all abilities, as strategically placed weight in the butt-end of the shaft produces a higher balance point for smoother, more repeatable swings from driver through putter. Boccieri Golf's Secret Grip, endorsed by Jack Nicklaus, is its latest innovation.
The company opened a state-of-the-art Research and Performance Center at 15816 N. Greenway-Hayden Loop in Scottsdale in 2012. Coinciding with significant growth in demand for the entire Boccieri Golf portfolio, the 9,000-square-foot facility offers a variety of services, including custom club fitting, high-tech swing analysis and practice time on life-like simulators.
Boccieri Golf equipment has played a key role in victories on every major professional Tour worldwide. In addition, its products have received vast critical acclaim from a variety of respected golf and lifestyle media outlets.

FORT WAYNE, Ind. (WANE) A group of women is making a difference in our kids' education, one book at time. The Fort Wayne Urban League's Read and Rise program promotes early literacy. These ladies are making house calls.
By getting inside the home, the women are also able to work with parents on childhood development, family structure and even, job placement.
"A lot of our clients are vulnerable, the clients are residents who are most at risk to things that will lead to a poor quality of life, so it's important for us to get out into the community and so the families know that we are there for them," said Antoinette Francher-Donald, Director of Planning and Program Research for the Fort Wayne Urban League.
"We have so many children that are not in any type of preschool program, so for me to be able to go out and prepare them to get then ready for kindergarten is the best thing to do," said Lisa Jones, Coordinator of the Read and Rise Program for the Fort Wayne Urban League.
Jones visits about 50 homes per month, plus group visits. Some are planned and some cold calls.
Angel Fink says programs that cater to her three-year-old, who isn't in school yet, are sparse.
Jones will visit the home ten times, give the family ten books and at the end, give them a stuffed animal from build a bear.
"She's awesome, she's awesome with the kids, they love her, she's really outgoing, always happy," said Fink.
"Once we get a connection with the family, I'm there to stay and it's a blessing to be able to do that in this community," said Jones.
Families with an income of $25,000 or less qualify for the program. To sign-up, call (260) 745-3100, ext. 41.

Does Robert Pattinson have a new lady love in his life?
According to several reports, the 27-year-old Twilight hunk recently got "very touchy-feely" with London-based artist and painter Nettie Wakefield during a date together.
"They were trying to keep a low profile but Rob teased Nettie by messing with her hair and they had a flirty play fight," a source told The Sun. "Afterwards they were giggling like teenagers."
But despite the romance rumors, a source close to R.Pattz tells E! News exclusively that he and Wakefield are "very good friends and are definitely not dating."
Over the holidays, a fan snapped pics of Pattinson supposedly enjoying dinner with Wakefield, 26, while home in the U.K. for Christmas. In the snapshot, the duo seem to being smiling and laughing while enjoying a casual meal together at a local eatery.
The Wakefield dating rumors come after Kristen Stewart's ex began romancing Dylan Penn, the daughter of Sean Penn and Robin Wright.
A source told E! News at the time that Pattinson and Penn had yet to refer to each other as "boyfriend and girlfriend," "but it is a romance."
"Dylan doesn't want to be famous," the source added. "She doesn't want to be an actress. She wants to be a screenwriter. She's been approached about acting work, but it's not her thing."
As for Wakefield, she's currently living and working in London. According to her website, she's available for "hand drawn bespoke flyers, posters, invitations, customised greeting cards, personal messages, hand designed album covers, portraits or whatever meets your needs," among other services.

Family sits for khtieu (Khmer noodle soup) breakfast at dawn, Psar Loeu, Siem Reap
Over half a million foreigners arrive in Siem Reap every year but go to the biggest market in town, Psar Loeu, and you'd be convinced otherwise. When you arrive at daybreak for breakfast, any self-respecting tourist is sitting in front of Angkor Wat's north reflecting pool, taking the same photo that every tourist takes with a vigour that suggests that their memories of Angkor Wat are worthless without it, instead of immersing themselves in the chaos of the market. With the average tourist stay in Siem Reap being 48 hours, it gives the traveller a scant few hours to capture the same scene that every one else captures.
While it is easy to get swept up by the madness of Psar Loeu and convinced that the founding theory behind the market is anarchy, order emerges. What on the outside looks like a random selection of vegetables is a tight selection of greens for a single Cambodian soup. Some vendors specialise in having all the ingredients for a single samlor, others for salad ingredients. It makes shopping for dinner as simple as finding the right stall. Inside, vendors arrange the semi-dried fish trei prama and the coconut husk smoked trei kes by size. The live snakehead fish is quickly subdued, skinned, and divided into regular pieces; or butterfly filleted for later drying.
What differentiates Psar Loeu from the other markets in town is both scale and target market. The two markets closer to the centre of town cater more to the tourist trade with many smaller vegetable vendors in the central Psar Chas currently being pushed out to Psar Loeu to make way for another Beerlao t-shirt stall. Psar Loeu receives scant mention in the guidebooks. The new émigrés to Psar Loeu have started setting up shop in the surrounding dirt alleyways and upon any spare patch of bitumen, both contributing to the mayhem and the size of the market. The food now occupies the entire streets surrounding the market building with the butcheries and fishmongers just inside the awnings, who in the mornings are barely finished butchering their respective meats.
Location: Psar Loeu is on Rd No. 6 to Phnom Penh, in Siem Reap

Hey guys, I'm new to the forum, but I've found this as a pretty useful place to get ideas/solutions to various problems I have.
I've looked through the forum for solutions to my problem, but nobody seems to get the exact same situation as I have, so here goes.
I'm doing a homework assignment for my Java class, and they've told us to use Ant to build our files so we can submit them; no biggie, I've done it for the
last 10 weeks with no problems.
However, today, I compiled my code using Ant to make a preview of the finish product (our Ant code also runs checkstyle, so I can see how many
checkstyle errors come up so I can fix them). However, after running Ant, all my programs in Java have stopped working.
I can't run anything, all I get is a "Error: Could not find or load main class xxxx.java". What's weird is, if I re-import my project into Eclipse (I'm running on Eclipse by the way, sorry I didn't make that out sooner), the entire project works again...that is until I run Ant.
The code works fine in command line, but debugging it is kind of a pain in command line.
Any ideas of what's going on? My project is due next week, and it's really annoying not being able to preview the finished product.
Thanks for the feedback

"This post was sponsored by WaterWipes as part of an Influencer Activation for Influence Central. I received complimentary products to facilitate my review."
When I was pregnant and prepping for my first baby, a friend of mine told me to make sure and not use regular baby wipes on my baby when she was a newborn. She said the baby's skin is too new and delicate, and that I should only use water and cloths or tissues to wipe my baby. I'm not gonna lie, this freaked me out a little bit! I didn't want to hurt my new baby's skin, and I didn't like the idea that I couldn't just quickly grab a wipe…knowing I would be changing a million diapers a day in the beginning (and keeping track of how many…talk about a dream job haha). But now with baby #2 I have found some smarter products and have been less stressed.
I never really new that there could be weird things in baby wipes….but then I checked the ingredients on the generic baby wipes I used to buy in bulk. And this is what it said: Water, Propylene Glycol, Aloe Barbadensis Leaf Juice, Tocopheryl Acetate, PEG-75 Lanolin, Disodium Cocoamphodiacetate, Polysorbate 20, Citric Acid, Disodium Phosphate, Disodium EDTA, Ethylene Brassylate, 2-Bromo-2-Nitropropane-1,3-Diol, Iodopropynyl Butylcarbamate.
Ummm….What?! It's a wipe, to wipe a baby's booty….that's all I need it to do!…why in the world would all these ingredients be necessary for that??
As a mom, I am always trying to make wise, safe and healthy decisions for my family (with balance of course)…and I don't always get it right. But I recently came across this new baby wipe brand called WaterWipes that sells at Target (My practically daily fave place to go) and honestly, this looks like a no-brainer easy fix for me!
WaterWipes USA are the purest baby wipes you can get, and are totally CHEMICAL FREE!
I found WaterWipes easily on the top shelf in the baby wipe section at my local Target. They were $3.99 but you can get them online for $3 right now, plus if you have the Target Red Debit Card…you get free shipping and 5% off! (I can't live without that card!)The Ingredients are 99.9% Pure Irish Water, and .1% Fruit Extract…that's an all natural wipe my friends!
Here is a little look into my youngest daughters room and changing station. I brought a couple packs of WaterWipes home from Target and below you will find my first experience with them:I noticed right away that they have a very subtle and light, sweet smell. (This must be from the fruit extract which is actually Grapefruit seed extract!) I tried the wipe on my skin first, before my baby's…and I noticed a difference right away in the feel of the wipes. These are less slick and slimy. My daughter was fascinated by the baby on the wipe wrapper…she kept trying to say "Baby"…..for her it comes out "Be" haha. I have used them on her now for several weeks and I even took a pack on our vacation in the mountains last week just to wipe faces and hands. They smell good, feel good, do a good job cleaning, are durable, and I feel better knowing I am not putting any unnecessary chemicals on my daughter…only natural sweet ones. See Below for contest info!
XOXO, Caroline

Fresh Manna
by Pastor Tim Burt
Prov 4:23 "Guard thy heart with all diligence; for out of it are the issues of life"
I live on a creek inhabited by ducks. I love to feed them. I have this big bucket filled with bird seed in the garage. The ducks love it and come running when they see me walk in the back yard carrying it.
One day I opened the bucket to get some seed. It has a secure lid on it but I must not have had it snapped on all the way. Amazingly, when I opened it there was a dead mouse in it. I would assume he over ate to his death. (He looked pudgy in his gut and it almost seemed as though he was smiling!) How he got in there was close to an impossible feat. The lid opening was almost non=existent and the bucket is tall. I don't think the mouse couldn't have scaled it but he did find some way to get in and it had to be through the tiniest crack.
Negative thoughts and bad worldly input seems to find its way into our mind and heart through any crack we leave open. That is why Prov 4:23 says that we need to "guard our heart with diligence." When I think of this I most often get the visual of soldiers at their post watching for enemies day and night.
This morning for whatever reason, I woke up with an old worldly song on my mind – one that I consider having negative words and attitudes. I know I haven't thought of this song for over 20 years and I am almost positive that I have not heard it in at least that long. Where did it come from? How did it get on my mind? I don't know. Possibly through a dream? That is what I call a small crack. I chased this song out replacing it with a song worshiping the Lord.
Our brain stores up and remembers incomprehensible amounts of information. It shouldn't surprise us when somewhere down the line and not always when you expect it, some of the unwanted information and thoughts rise to the surface of your memory.
I recently talked with a man who was struggling with inappropriate sexual thoughts. He hated it and only wanted his thoughts and mind to be pure. He said he struggled with his mind drifting to past sexual thoughts and memories that were a part of his life prior to making Jesus His Savior. He knew Jesus has forgiven him and washed his past sins away, but hated when these kinds of thoughts seemed to randomly surface at the most awkward times and he was feeling condemned.
2 Corinthians 10:5 (KJV) instructs us what to do with thoughts that are in appropriate and contrary to God's Word. It says, "Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, and bringing into captivity every thought to the obedience of Christ." If you read through this chapter you'd see God had given us power to rule our thought-life and keep it pure. When I learned this truth and began to exercise this in my life, it was as if for the first time in my life, my mind became mine to rule and use for God's glory and was no longer ruled by random and unwanted thoughts producing embarrassment and condemnation.
What we let into the gates of our mind and heart that are not good, will try to come back to haunt us. We have to exercise casting down inappropriate thoughts in the authority of Jesus name and refocus on godly things. It takes effort, but in time we have fewer and fewer flashbacks and instead develop the "strong mind" mentioned in 2 Timothy 1:7 (NKJV) "For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind."
God isn't condemning us as we work through this. He is the one helping us renew our minds to His Word with the help of the Holy Spirit. He is the one that told us, "So humble yourselves before God. Resist the devil, and he will flee from you."
Today's Fresh Manna says to guard your heart because out of it "come the issues of life." What you hear and see will affect the choices that you make good or bad. Even old information stored in your mind. This is why we need to be on guard as to what we let through our sense gates. Hurtful information and images, like the mouse I mentioned earlier, will slip through the slightest crack if we aren't on guard.
Praise God today and do what the Apostle Paul taught us to do to guard our hearts. Philippians 4:8-9 says, "Finally, brethren, whatever things are true, whatever things are noble, whatever things are just, whatever things are pure, whatever things are lovely, whatever things are of good report, if there is any virtue and if there is anything praiseworthy; meditate on these things. The things which you learned and received and heard and saw in me, these do…" What will be the result? The issues of life will be conducted with clear and godly thinking and choices and, as the Apostle Paul goes on to say, "the God of peace will be with you."
In His Love,

I just got started (today, in fact - came over from Blogger) and I had a question concerning links within posts. I know WP has an 'automatic' link-creating button, but I tried modifying the link so that it would open the link in a new tab without having to do a CTRL-mouseclick.
This is the html I used: LinkTitle. When I hit 'Publish', the Edit screen shows me the link was changed to Linktitle, and the link is completely gone. If I DON'T add the 'target="_blank" part, the link holds and works on my page.
Doesn't WP support that kind of html?
The blog I need help with is theobservatorium.wordpress.com.

A few weeks back I had my hair done by Mark McLeod (read about it on Vitamin Daily, he had some great tips) which was really exciting because most of my haircuts seem to take place in my kitchen. In addition to leaving with a great cut, I also got some amazing tips on hair maintenance for the busy woman. I like to spend max 3 minutes on my hair in the morning, and my new cut and products allow this. I can also now go four days without washing my hair, which is awesome.
The trick is, on day 2, 3, and 4 after washing, you use Kevin Murphy's Fresh Hair Dry Cleaning Spray, a dry shampoo-like product that gives your hair bulk and makes it look clean. I just spray a bunch on and shake my hair and it keeps its volume and bounce all day (instead of looking flat and greasy, not my fave look.) It takes a LOT for me to get excited about a hair product and use it for more than 3 days after purchase, but I can safely say that I am officially addicted to this spray and it is my new must-have. Find it at many salons, there is a list on their website.

Unlikely Starters in my Kitchen Garden
It's still cold enough in Lewisburg, Pennsylvania for ice to form on the water in my "rain garden." I use quotes because I dug a hole several years ago and it has been wet only in spring thaws and heavy storms—it's dry most of the year. Haven't yet decided what to plant in it.
Being a garden writer has changed me. Before I posted my first blog entry, I'd plant almost exclusively things intended for my stomach. I'd joke (and I still joke) that if the plant doesn't come with a recipe, I won't waste energy growing it.
There were exceptions. For example, I came across zinnia seeds that were supposed to be special and I planted some. They weren't special. I also planted poppies year after year until finally two plants survived to adulthood. They met their demise under the lawn mower when my wife sent my oldest child with it into an unkempt flower bed.
How Garden Writing Changed Me
Through blogging I got to know other garden writers and a group of them in New England organized an outing to a public garden in very eastern New York… I have friends in that area I'd actually already met in person, so I used the outing as an excuse to visit.
A cluster of leaf buds sits on the soil line between stems that supported last year's blossoms. I bought closeouts at the end of the season in 2014 and "healed them in" in my vegetable garden. I'll transplant these into the rock garden I expect to create in April.
It was a most terrific day. I toured a gorgeous garden with people I had known only as avatars and Twitter names. As those people became "real," my change began.
My friends all were giddy about the garden and it was easy to understand why: Textures and colors intertwined in displays I'd never have conceived. Gorgeous arrangements of rocks, wood, water, and living plants drew us from one themed area to another. The weather was perfect. The light was perfect. The people were perfect.
Ideas accumulated in my mind. Ornamental gardens around homes in central Pennsylvania are, for the most part "shrub-and-mulch" monstrosities (set shrubs and young trees throughout a planting bed and spread mulch). I don't recall seeing mulch in the public garden (it was probably there, but I simply didn't notice it); each themed area combined hardscaping and a variety of plants to interest a visitor looking up, forward, or down. Plants provided the ground cover that mulch provides in central Pennsylvania!
Hens and Chicks were on sale at a yard sale late in 2014. I bought two for a dollar apiece and heeled them in in the vegetable bed next to the sedum. They'll also move to a new rock garden in April.
I've resisted the change, but each subsequent visit to a show garden has provided more inspiration; more examples of ornamental garden design done well. And there's another factor:
Whenever I attend a GWA event or a horticulture industry conference, it seems I bring home seeds and plants to try in my garden. When those aren't edibles, I imagine my yard some day rivaling the many show gardens I've visited.
Am I close? Do I know what plants will look good together when they grow up? Do I have any ability to design an attractive ornamental garden? Does this paragraph contain enough questions? (No. No. Maybe. Do you think it contains enough questions?)
What's in my Kitchen Garden Now
Last autumn, I grabbed a whole bunch of hardy succulents at a garden center—marked down to a fifth or less of their "in-season" prices—Tall-standing and ground-hugging sedums, and Hens and Chicks. I had also picked up some sedum roots at Cultivate '14 and had nursed most of them into seedlings.
I fell in love with hellebores when I first saw their fleshy white flowers poking out of a snow bank. Prices for these plants always seemed high until I found a friend selling native plants at a local garden show last spring. I bought one from her and she generously gave me another. They went in the garden in early summer and spent a lackluster season there. Despite drawing full shade until late afternoon, one hellebore was already putting up flower stalks by the time the snow melted off of it as spring approached.
As gardening season '14 ended, I simply ran out of time to install the planting bed I want for these succulents. To increase their chances of surviving winter, I "heeled them in" in my vegetable bed. They've been covered with snow for months, but it melted off while I was away last week. They look spectacular! Photos complete the story.
Given that the ground is still firm with surface frost and frozen through in some places, it's astonishing to find so many plants looking alive and ready for spring. I'm ready to go; I wish the climate felt the same.
Horehound doesn't belong on this list. I added it two seasons ago, technically not as an ornamental element—it's an herb. I included the photo because the plant is remarkable. Last season, the horehound emerged from winter dried up and burnt; all growth in 2014 came from the roots. This winter brought at least one month-long stretch where the temperature never rose out of the teens; it seemed colder overall than the previous winter. Still, snow melted away to reveal healthy, beautiful leaves on the horehound plant… it's so true that snow insulates plants from winter cold.

Carl's hopes for a music career and playing his violin were altered June 23, 1998, when his Camry was struck by a delivery truck early one morning as he delivered newspapers–his summer job between semesters at Hillsdale College.
He describes his recovery.
"Broken bones?" I asked.
"Many, many, many. If you want me to go from top to bottom," he pointed to his head: "Traumatic brain injury. My skull was never fractured, so that was a mercy of God right there. What they said, the right side of my brain twisted on the stem and rubbed up against the right side of my skull. That is what put me in a coma. Major gash on the left side of my skull. The scalp was open, so I had stitches there. Going down, my left collar bone was broken."
I couldn't resist, "You had your seat belt on, right?" Hey, I'm a mom.
"That's what saved my life. I wore my seat belt and the air bag deployed. Both my arms and both my legs were fine, but everything else in my torso was messed up, except for my back. All my ribs were broken, resulting in both lungs being punctured. My pelvis, that's the big bone, got broken in five places. While I was in a coma, they weren't able to move my legs until my pelvis healed. Calcium deposits started forming under my kneecaps, completely shifting my kneecaps out of their normal spot. When I emerged from the coma, I didn't have knees. I had lumps and wasn't able to walk."
After more than five months of rehab, Carl was able to go home.
"I came home the day before Thanksgiving. I was so thankful to God that I was alive, so thankful to be coming home, though my emotions were a little dampened. I just didn't seem…my emotions were pretty numbed.
"I did start trying to play the violin. I wanted to play for carol sing, like I had done in the past. I tried. I really did. It was frustrating. My left hand doesn't work. I did play, but I wasn't at the level I wanted."
Carl put his violin down after that.
"It's neurological damage. Something is messed up between my brain and my hand."
"What do you think about that," I asked.
"All right, God. What do you want me to do now?"
He had wanted to be a music teacher.
"And, now I can't do anything musical, really. I think God was saying, 'Trust Me, I will lead you.' It ended up being an experience, gradually learning to trust God. There is still hope that I could play the violin, That has never left."
Carl took community college classes that fall, then returned to Hillsdale. "I was thrilled to be back, but things weren't as I remembered.
I wasn't quite so…I'm a lot sadder, more sedate than I was used to being."
He struggled to explain the (neurological) loss of emotion. He did graduate from Hillsdale, a degree in music pedagogy."
"Music pedagogy was kind of a major they made for me. I have head knowledge, but I can't do the physical expression."
Our lunch at Appleby's had had several distractions. Just then Carl saw a young woman he knew. They bantered about winter break and school being superior to employment.
"Reality," I said.
"Reality sucks," he responded.
"Stay in school as long as you can."
He was sheepish, realizing this was a more candid, present, than the narrative we had been focusing on.
By 2004 Carl was weighing his options.
"Is music still a hope?" I asked.
"A very distant hope," he said. "If I were able to play again, I think I would get back the emotion."
"The music itself could bring it back?"
"I think so."
He's currently (2005) studying counseling at a seminary in St. Louis.
"What's happening inside Carl," I asked.
"I'm really not sure. To a certain extent, I feel a little loss of direction."
"Do you see purpose in all of this?"
"I know there is. I don't know. I know there is one. I've never had a normal life, even pre-DAO (Divinely Appointed Occurrence). That's what I call my wreck. God does not cause sin, but he has a purpose through it, and that is a mystery which, this side of heaven, we will never be able to fathom."
"Are you OK with that?"
"I am more than OK with that." He paused.
"I should be honest. There are other things that come into play." He described social struggles.
He's 25. It's a difficult young adulthood.
"What you want back is your passion for life?"
"Yes." "I think we're still talking about perfect pitch," I said.
"Emotional perfect pitch., knowing what you're missing. It hurts."
He reflected. I had hit a chord. His friends were IM-ing him again.
"Do you mind if I check my phone?" he asked.

Hike Kanaka Peak
Kanaka Peak Trailhead, Shasta County, California, United States
Photography, Running, Hiking, Fitness
Skill Level:
Year Round
Trail Type:
RT Distance:
3.5 Miles
Elevation Gain:
1100 Feet
Secluded and less visited than other parts of the park, Kanaka Peak can be a fun challenge as explorers can catch splendid views of Whiskeytown Lake, Shasta Bally, Mount Shasta, Clear Creek Canyon, and the Yolly Bolly Mountains. Perfect to go on a date to watch the sunset, Kanaka Peak is a rewarding 7-mile (roundtrip) hike with 1,100 feet of elevation gain.
Head to the Peltier Bridge Campground after entering Whiskeytown National Recreation Area and then go 1.1 miles along the road through the campground until you reach the trailhead for Kanaka Peak. The road from the campground is open from late spring to late fall, otherwise hikers will need to park at the campground and hike the extra 1.1 miles to the trailhead.
From the trailhead, you'll cross over Paige Boulder Creek and follow the trail until you reach a trail junction with Peltier Trail on the right. Stay straight and don't go onto Peltier Trail. Keep on the trail and 1.6 miles from the trailhead you will reach another trail junction, this time with Kanaka Cutoff Trail on the left. Ignore this one too and keep going straight.
1.9 miles later, you'll reach the summit after two steep sections of elevation gain. Be sure to enjoy the hike and take a moment to soak in the views as you hike up. At the top, there is a nice wooden bench to rest on as you look north. If you're quiet, you might even see black bear, blacktail mule deer, and various types of birds. According to the National Park Service, wildflowers are in abundance starting around April (and even in mid-March).
Watch out for poison oak if you wander off-trail to "chase a bear," especially in the winter months when they don't have their leaves. Look for reddish, skinny stick-like bushes that point upward (instead of outward), and avoid them.Note: Visitors to Whiskeytown National Recreation Area will need either a Whiskeytown Pass or an Interagency Pass (e.g. America the Beautiful annual pass) to park anywhere in the park. They can be purchased for $10 (weekly pass) or $40 (annual pass) at the visitor information center upon turning into the park.
Pack List
- Snack
- Cellphone (service can usually be found at the summit)
- Water bottle (creeks run dry starting in the spring, so be sure to carry enough water for a 7+ mile hike)
- Camera
- Map
- First Aid Kit
- Flashlight
- Extra batteries
- Ten Essentials
Please respect the places you find on The Outbound.
Always practice Leave No Trace ethics on your adventures. Be aware of local regulations and don't damage these amazing places for the sake of a photograph. Learn More
Overall rating:
Close to the city, which is convenient for a quick hike! But it's a good one! Uphill for the majority of it, with some amazing views! During the winter and spring, there's beautiful cascades near the top (watch out for poison oak if you venture to the cascades!). The peak is so nice with the bench and beautiful views.over 1 year ago

Read Article Excerpts
The Boston Herald
Michael Lasalandra, Health Reporter
I first heard of Rhonda Lenair back in 1992 when I was the medical writer at The Palm Beach Post newspaper and her mother called me suggesting I do a story on her daughter's unusual technique for getting people to quit their addictions. I don't usually bite on cold calls like that one, but there was something in what she said and how she said it that grabbed my attention. Skeptical but intrigued, I did the story. And I didn't forget her.
A year or so later, a friend was having a problem and I suggested to her that Lenair might help. The friend went to see her, was cured, and my interest in Lenair was piqued again. I wrote another story about her in 1996 a few years after taking a position as medical writer at The Boston Herald.
During the course of researching Rhonda Lenair and The Lenair Technique, I talked with dozens of people who said they had been cured of long time alcohol, drug and tobacco addictions. The patients whom I had talked to were credible. I began to believe. In 2001, I did yet another story on Lenair's prowess in treating alcohol addictions. The story led to another friend's being treated for a drinking problem – a problem that was overcome quickly and easily in just three sessions with Lenair.
Let it suffice to say, as a medical writer for more than 12 years, I have seen and heard a variety of claims, from physicians and healers of all sorts, mainstream and alternative. Basically, I've seen and heard it all. But nothing I've seen in all these years has ever come close to matching Rhonda Lenair. She's the real thing."
Salem Evening News
Betty Monroe
"Ms. Lenair does this, and it comes from within. More than a dozen members of the Salem Police Department can attest to the success of her techniques when 13 out of 14 were successful in conquering smoking by using her technique."
Good Housekeeping
Jeanie Russell
Phillip Stone, M.D., a plastic surgeon who practices in New York City and Springfield, MA, went to intuitive Rhonda Lenair to quit smoking – and did after one treatment. "The first thing she knew was that I had a bad back from an old tennis injury," he says. "Second, she told me I had trouble with an upper left wisdom tooth, which was true. She knew the specific sites in my neck and back where I have tension from surgery. And that I had congestion in my left ear. There was no reason in the world she could know any of this. It was wild. But there are certain things in this life of ours that people can either accept or not accept." He now refers patients to Lenair.
Townsend Letter For Doctors and Patients
Morton Walker, D.P.M.
"My reportorial observation is that Rhonda Lenair conducts herself as a gentle, honest, loving, soft-spoken, humble and giving person who denies her extraordinary talent. When asked about herself, she states with conviction, "I strive to become nothing and thus I am able to absorb everyone and everything." But to those multi-thousands of former addicts who love the woman and hold her in respect as a healer, she is the key player in a life-changing experience for each of them. In my three-and-half decades of interviewing clients and patients about products and services, it is the first time that I've encountered so much love, wonder, appreciation, and enthusiasm for a dispenser of healing care."
Elle Magazine
Alicia Potter
Every night, while her young son slept, Mary Day drank. She didn't always get drunk, but she downed enough alcohol – three or more White Russians a night – to make her worry. Worry that she couldn't relax without it; that she wasn't able to stop; that she was endangering her son. Three years into this ritual, Day vowed to quit. But she didn't call her doctor or a rehab clinic or her local chapter of Alcoholics Anonymous. "Sitting around with a bunch of people who drank and talking about it didn't appeal to me," says Day, a thirty-eight-year-old, no-nonsense accountant. So she chose what she believed to be the quickest, easiest path to sobriety: She called Rhonda Lenair, an "energy healer." …One year later, she hasn't had a single drink.
Medical Community Comments
Hyla Cass, M.D., Psychiatrist, Author, California
…Rhonda's hands-on healing work is remarkable in its ability to eliminate alcoholism. "Rhonda is a "doctor of energy medicine," encompassing all areas/branches of medicine. Energetically able to detect problems on all levels, she acts as the human equivalent of an MRI, CAT scan or diagnostic lab. Moreover, she becomes the client's voice, beyond the usual constrictions of time and space. She knows deeply and expresses accurately what has happened, is happening, and what is pending within a person systemically and beyond physical boundaries. Despite the depth and fullness of her reading, she ensures that the individual hears what they need to without feeling intruded upon or threatened."
"Checking in with Rhonda allows you to connect with your own non-voiced self; through her voice, you meet yourself." "This healing modality is one that therapists should be aware of and embrace for both themselves and their patients. While phone contact is sufficient for pure information and insights into their clients, to have an addiction removed requires a personal visit.
"Rhonda Lenair is an extremely valuable health resource and healer. She adds a completely new dimension to health care and self-care, saving lives with the new awareness that she reveals within."
Dr. Michael Posner, New York
A communication to his patients and friends from Dr. Michael Posner:
"Rhonda Lenair is one of the most amazing individuals I've ever meet. Rhonda, also known as Self(s), is a world healer extraordinaire, whose approach embodies the very essence of your being in the most compassionate and loving way. Just hearing her spoken words can change your life for the better. Since 1987 thousand and thousands of people have traveled from around the world to see her and to have life obstacles removed and have been subject to Self(s) illuminatory healings."
Ms. Lenair has touched and helped my life in so many ways. Most of it has been over the phone, something I would not have believed possible before experiencing it for myself. Her medical intuitive abilities are so remarkable that even the most cynical will be impressed, and believe me, I was at first quite skeptical! Over the past 22 years, she has helped many thousands of people Self(s) heal from serious alcohol, smoking and food addictions as well as other emotional traumas. She also shares with you what your body system says it needs to restore your life to the highest degree of balance, physically, emotionally and spiritually: It's all about you. In love and light,"
Dr. Michael Posner, Huntington, New York
Additional Communications from Dr. Michael Posner:
….I ponder daily my sessions with you and the many subsequent changes that have since taken place, yet it is difficult for me to put into words the feelings that I now experience. As my emotional body is becoming more and more balanced, I feel like a sleeping giant is awakening and this is really quite joyful! It's incredible how all aspects of my life are improving on every level! The bondage of my ego has eased up and things that once seemed real now appear false and amusing at best. There is, beyond doubt, a profound evolutionary transformation going on in my mind, body and spirit, which is aligning me with the vision of who I truly want to be.
The excruciating painful and crippling shoulder issue has been a real test! I had some thoughts about taking pain medications, which I consciously observed as the desire quickly diminished into nothingness. There's no chance that this would have ever happened in the past! What a pleasure to be free! It is amazing how egos can seduce us into reverting back to old patterns; what a trickster the ego can be!
At this point in time, I want to say thank you from the deepest part of my heart and soul. Not only have you helped me, but also all of my patients as well, for they also reap the benefits which radiate outwardly to all in my sphere of influence.
I want my testimonial to talk to all those who will be motivated to come to see you in the future, and for me it has to exude what's in my heart. As I continue to comprehend the essence of my ever-growing progress, I will capture the words that express my gratitude for your part in the demise of my habitual mind patterns that have enslaved me in the past and for which I Am Now Free. Thank you for your Love, Light and continued support. You are the best!
Love All Ways,
… "She took all the cravings and desire away… She was the magic bullet", states Dr. Michael Posner, a respected chiropractor from New York.
Tree Borden, LICSW, Massachusetts
"As a psychotherapist with 26 years' experience and over the past 5 years I have referred about 75% of my clients to Rhoda Lenair because of a phenomenon that occurs in her presence … addictive, self-sabotaging behaviors, thoughts, desires, cravings and the need to self-destruct simply cease … almost instantaneously."
"I'm just one of many clinicians and doctors that refer their patients for the "by-product" of this transformational experience. SHE allows my clients to cease what they've become through self-abusive behaviors, fears and thoughts and then become who they are born to be – peaceful, calm and free. Having been in the presence of Rhonda many times, I recognize that she is a prophet who brings one to their highest self. After witnessing first-hand, a family member being healed of an alcohol problem, I was blown away. I can 100% attest to the Self(s) Heal Experience being effective – it is a reset of someone's system. Each and every client that I referred has come back completely changed – as if they're a new person. This is not a treatment or a therapy, but a miracle that predictably occurs when one is in Rhonda's presence."
Additional Comments from Tree Borden, LICSW, MA
…"Rhonda Lenair is more than a pioneer in the field of energy healing and addictions; she is a conduit to purity of the ethereal world, a place where only clarity and goodness exist. Rhonda has worked with several of my clients on addiction and trauma issues, eradicating them and leaving an open space for love of themselves. I have seen those who have struggled for years with alcohol and food issues leave them behind."
Phillip A. Stone, M.D., F.A.C.S.
"What a profound help you have been to me personally and to many of my clients. Your gift for diagnostic analysis facilitates bridging the chasm between Eastern and Western medicine. Alternative therapeutics has been strengthened by your expertise."
Phillip A. Stone, M.D., F.A.C.S.

"The first thing she knew was that I had a bad back from an old tennis injury," he says. "Second, she told me I had trouble with an upper left wisdom tooth, which was true. She knew the specific sites in my neck and back where I have tension from surgery. And that I had congestion in my left ear. There was no reason in the world she could know any of this. It was wild. But there are certain things in this life of ours that people can either accept or not accept." He now refers patients to Lenair.

Excessive Drinking
Food and Weight Issues
Joe, Massachusetts
I will hit 10 years of sobriety in January of 2018. Rhonda Lenair's self healing experience
Tom, Massachusetts
My road to a new beginning took some unexpected turns. My story begins when I was 11 or 12 years old and had my first taste of beer when working on my uncles farms and continued for the next fifty years! The love and desire of beer was becoming ever more a part of my life the past 5 years as physical impairments and surgeries increased and the pain continued. Drinking made it bearable. Part of my daily routine was deciding where I had to go and what package store I would go by on my way home from work.
Then last year as my wife and I contemplated our yearly vacation to our timeshare on the island of Saint Maarten we thought that it would be a nice change to visit one of the other islands that are part of our timeshare's package. After talking to various friends and others, we decided on the island of Aruba…
Now for that unexpected turn in the road that led to the end of my dependency on beer. Unbeknownst to me, my wife had heard conversations by a couple of ladies she was sitting with on the beach about their wanting to stop smoking. When one of them mentioned Rhonda Lenair as a person who helps people break their desire to smoke and other dependencies …
Several months went by with my wife surfing the net for information about Rhonda …Then one day after one of my alcohol induced argumentative states I asked her to find out what we needed to do to get an appointment with Rhonda. After several emails back and forth with Barry and eventually a phone call, the appointment was set…
My meeting with Rhonda was a life altering experience that you who have first-hand knowledge can relate to it. I know I am not the first and will not be the last to say 'That it was as if a light switch was turned off'. That is how dramatic the results were. I now have no desire, need or want to drink alcohol.
I am thankful every day for what initially was a horrible vacation that resulted in the discovery of Rhonda Lenair and her truly remarkable gift and to a wonderful wife who stood by me for these past 36 years. I love you both.
Chuck, Vermont
Rhonda is one of the most amazing souls walking the planet. If you desire to hear your inner Self, what your Higher Self and Identity wants to reveal to yourself, I most heartedly recommend a session with her. You will experience
Dan, Massachussets
ANOTHER successful experience at the Lenair Healing Center.
My first experience was March of 2000 where I was indeed rid of my addiction to alcohol. Here it is almost 16 years later and I'm still astonished. I can't imagine where I'd be now had it not been for the Lenair Healing Center.
My most recent visit, I had some other obstacles which I was struggling with. Again, gone.
Linda, New Hampshire
"POOF – GONE! All those tedious, self-destructive, frustrating and bewildering cravings for alcohol – gone – in hours. I am in disbelief and jaw- dropping awe over what you accomplished for me."
Jeffrey, Massachusetts
I have been to the Lenair Healing Center for my own abuse of alcohol. The results I have are just as stated on their website and in their testimonials – Miracles. In one testimonial, the writer stated that the process was like "shutting off a light switch" and his cravings were gone. This is exactly what happened to me. After my 3 short sessions with Rhonda Lenair, I have not had another craving for alcohol in years. And, I have not had to change my lifestyle or remove myself from situations where others are drinking – the desires and cravings are simply not there any longer. Rhonda and her center saved my life and relationship with my family by removing the destructive cravings that seemed to control me. Rhonda is an amazing healer, full of love and compassion. She has been a gift in my life since I first called her healing center.
Charity, Massachusetts
Dear Rhonda, I have just hit my 5 year anniversary for being nicotine free, after 25 years. My last "key" birthday, I knew I needed to try something, but frankly was looking for an easy way out. I work with someone that had used Rhonda's technique 20 years ago and had highly recommended it as an option- she is also known locally as I live in the same town, and had heard lots of good feedback. Boy was I glad.. I went with an open mind, it is a bit of an investment, but my opinion, what can be a more valuable investment than your health.. I hate to say it, but the whole experience was EASY, I left after 2 hours, and never ever looked back. I never had any withdrawal symptoms that I was aware of, I have never had a craving or desire even. In fact I drove around in my car for 3 weeks with an open pack of cigarettes, never even tempted. That investment paid for itself in 2 years, what more can I say.. oh, my husband is going next week. I'll pass that feedback along.
Chris, New York
Dear Rhonda, my experience with you has been so wonderfully positive and life-enhancing. You are a gifted medical intuitive with a healing ability that is nothing short of astonishing and miraculous. I have seen you in person on 3 occasions between the years 2000 and the summer of 2015 to address cravings for alcohol, wheat products and sugar. In each instance my cravings for the particular substances instantly vanished after the session. I myself couldn't believe the craving was gone so readily and easily and to this day, those cravings remain gone. Rhonda, you are a deeply compassionate person with impeccable integrity. I have the highest regard for you and recommend you without reservation. I don't know where to begin thanking you! During my visit and sessions with you I early September I felt like I had stepped into a Vermeer painting where the ordinary becomes extraordinary and time ceases to be linear; there is only now. I was in place so serene and tranquil and the experience is still percolating down the depths of my being. I find myself at various times readily transported to that place I experienced with you- that endless moment of stillness where there is acceptance and non-judgment; an experience so deeply personal and impersonal at the same time. Rhonda your gifts and healings are astonishing. I find everything about you astonishing and I consider myself do unbelievably fortunate to work with you.
Heather, Vermont
"Dear Rhonda and Barry,
I felt compelled and inspired to write and Thank You for improving the quality of my life; I am able to feel and share Joy and be Passionate about living again. I feel so much healthier and happier physically, emotionally and spiritually. The re-balance of energy within me and my connection and harmony with the Universe is available again.
When I read other peoples' testimonials, I could feel the love and gratitude in their letters: I wish to express my appreciation and gratitude and love I feel – your gift Rhonda is overwhelming and I can't thank you enough for sharing it with me and others.
Pat, Massachusetts
"Rhonda, I sincerely want to thank you for the comforting message you left me prior to my surgery. It helped a great deal. You were right with your diagnosis of the masses. Everything turned out fine as you suspected it would. Again Rhonda, "thank you" so much. See you soon,

"Hi Barry I just couldn't let today pass without a profound 'Thank you' to you and to Rhonda for a most awe inspiring event today!! In my case the flood gates did indeed open and the remainder of my day has been bathed in insights and ponderings that have been waiting to be released!! … I understood precisely what Rhonda was referring to as she shared her 'Pure Love' with us all!! It's not so much about 'seeking' as it is a discovering …
I could go on and on here and certainly you both have heard it all before. Mostly I just wanted to send HUGE gratitude to you both. May God bless you both on your journey and the wonderful work that you do. I am so grateful for the energy and light of you both. Many, many, thanks again. Fondly,"

"The time flew by so quickly being in the presence of this work. Something has shifted in me, emerged, cleared, opened and strengthened by hearing Rhonda's words …This is more than I expected, and of a level of spiritual engagement that is exactly what was necessary to help me understand and clarify those things which create resistance in my life."
Nancy, New Hampshire
Dear Rhonda and Barry, Thank you both for such a beautiful event today. Rhonda, Barry, and all who were a part of this today, were, and are, the essence and the divine vibration of pure love. Rhonda, with your voice and presence this pure love was, and is, both palpable and so very powerful. Thank you both for all your hard work, all you do, and the beautiful and profound healings that you inspire. I am so very grateful for you and all you have done for me through your healing work over the years. I love you so very much. Love and Blessings, "
Tara, California
" Hi Barry, it's Amy. I just wanted to thank you and Rhonda for having the Telexperience on the 12th — I literally bet my life on it – that it would work even over the computer and it did! It's wonderful to be free of that addiction (again). I saw rainbows on my ceiling during it! It was wonderful!
Please tell Rhonda 'thank you' for me – the outcome of that day saved three lives: my 10-year-old son's, my husband's, and mine. If I had kept on that path, I shudder to think what would have happened … Again, thank you and god bless! Love and blessings, "
Amy, New Hampshire

Strange food names
I was just curious to know if anyone had ever been unable to eat a food, or had been really hesitant to try a food, based upon its name, either the real one, or the local name for it. Or perhaps, it was a name that was so funny that it was hard to think of it as food.
When I first moved over to Ireland I got a real shock when I saw "Donnor" kabobs offered in some of the local kebab shops. Not that there is anything abnormal about them, but that, coming from having been raised in the US and taught all about the infamous "Donnor Party", my first instincts were that the kebabs were the remnants of customers past. Although I have since grown to really enjoy them once in a while, I have to admit that the name really put me off them initially.
Any else have that problem?

One of my favorite styles of manuscript…. Anglo Saxon Art
The blog A Clerk of Oxford posted today about one of my favorite style of manuscript. The manuscript is the Benedictional of St. Æthelwold, one of the last surviving Winchester-style manuscripts of 10th-century Anglo-Saxon mastery. St. Æthelwold 's is one of the earliest of this style of manuscript.
The Gospel Book known as MS M.708 held in the Pierpont Morgan Library in New York is another such example. The so-called Grimbald Gospel at the British Library has a few good full-page illuminations, too.
One of my favorites is the Arundel Psalter, also at the British Library. I used this image as the basis for Mistress Hertha of Froggestowe's peerage scroll, long long ago. More recently, I based the Cross of Calontir scroll for H.L. Johann Steinarrson on this page, as well.
Other favorites from the era include the Hunterian Psalter dating to approximately 1170 CE and the St. Alban's Psalter, from about 1130 CE.
Certainly there are more from this era, mainly fragments and parcels due to their age. However, my SCA persona being 10th – 11th Century Irish, I can't help but feel a soft spot for these treasures.
I hope you have enjoyed looking at the pretty pictures. I also hope you give the Clerk of Oxford blog a visit.
If you are interested in some awesome books that include more details about illuminated books and manuscripts of this era, here are some suggestions.

I feel physically sick.
1) A 30 minute 'in tray' exercise
2) A 30 minute mock interview of a potential volunteer
3) I then have to deliver a training session for 30 minutes
4) Followed by a 30 minute interview with a panel of people
To say I am completely terrified is an understatement. I feel physically sick when I think about it (speaking in front of people is my worst nightmare) and its on Thursday - thats less than a weeks time. So you would imagine that I had been sat preparing for my interview all day? No I have been cleaning my house from top to bottom. This is what I do when I want to avoid doing something else. I used to do it when I was supposed to be writing essays at University. Anything to avoid starting the task in hand. On a more positive note my house is clean and tidy which makes a welcome change and a lovely friend has offered to have Izzy on Thursday. I think my mum can have Sam so at least childcare is sorted. Now I just need to get my brain in gear and do some planning. Oh dear this could take some time!

Wow, that is a scary proposition. No words of advice as it's been years since I've had an interview but best of luck to you. xxReplyDelete
Well done for getting an interview - that's brilliant! The other candidates will be feeling the same nerves that you are, so you will be in it together.ReplyDelete
You could try and act your way through it - visualise someone you admire (deep breaths, shoulders down) and try and be like that person - confident, friendly, lovely - all the things you are! And all the things they want.
At least you can enjoy your clean house for a few days :o) Best of luck and big hugs for getting an interview x
Please don't worry, if it helps at all years ago I got a job and remained friends with the lady who took me on, when I asked her why she had chosen me, she told me I got most of the answers wrong and took 2 hours to complete the w.p. exercises instead of 45 mins, but she felt I was worth investing in as I was enthusiastic and clearly wanted the job - it's not only the cleverest, fastest, bestest that win, you know. Just be you.ReplyDelete
Hi LouiseReplyDelete
I agree with the other comments particularly Crafting in the beach hut and Mrs Yappy Dog, sorry thats very formal but havent checked out their real names yet. Enthusiasm, friendliness and a real desire for the job are going to put you up there straight away. Positive thinking. You can do it girl. Go for it!
Jenny x
Good-luck, the only thing I can say is be calm!! don't worry because worrying will show and then you wont get the job anyway, so just think, 'what if?' what if I don't get the job - my world is not going to come to an end.ReplyDelete
Good-luck!!! we will cross fingers, toes and anything else we can stick cross!! Kxx
You know this is better than a 15 min chat. You know what is coming, you can prepare for it. As someone who home start has helpped I can also help you with this a little especcially on the volenteer infor, as mine if the most perfect one in the worls. Most of it is common sence - Parenting issues, how would you deal with not agreeing on disapline with your homestart family etc.ReplyDelete
You know my e-mail address, give me a mail and we can have a chat anytime. As I have said this is your job
good luck. remember "I am a strong, confident woman. I do not need cigarettes" oh no that's the wrong tape. whoops!ReplyDelete
I hate panel interviews- just waiting for one of them to pull out a Britain's Got Talent style buzzer at any moment.... I'm not helping so I'm going to go now.
Good luck! x x
when I had to type in the word verification for that last comment it was "cringe" lolReplyDelete
When it's over and done with you will wonder why. It's just the time in between which can drive us up the wall!!ReplyDelete
Wow, that's pretty hard core! On the plus side, you at least have advance notice that this is how it's going to happen and can prepare. You'll be fine, everyone will have the same nerves. Good luck :)ReplyDelete
Oh I know this feeling, and the best bit of advice anyone ever gave me was "enjoy it" - it sounds bizarre but finding a way to make it an enjoyable process changes one's thoughts about it, and when that happens we tend to act differently!! ie not nervous!ReplyDelete
I hope it's okay and goes well. Loads of luck.
Think positive, you can do it!! After all it's only an interview and if you do your very best and with good thoughts I'm sure you'll sail through. Good luck (fingers crossed for you) Lucey xxReplyDelete
Remember everyone else will be as nervous as you - and it is quite an achievement even to get an interview - they are impressed by your CV already to have offered you one. And if all else fails you will have an immaculately clean house!My house was always at its cleanest when I had a deadline whilst I was studying. Maybe I should go back to studying ... Good luck, anyway!ReplyDelete
Pomona x
good luck, stay calm and I'm sure you will be fine. I agree with Pomana above, just getting an interview in these times is great. My fella has just been interviewing people in his job and he has has about 50 people apply and only interviewed about 5!! (he works in the voluntry sector).ReplyDelete
I hate talking or presenting in public, I even find meetings a bit scary, but try and get round it by really prepared and knowing my stuff.
I did a marketing course a few years ago and we were taught a thing called APIC. which can really help to structure answers to any questions especially when talking about things you have done.
Its basically
analyse - what do you need to do or achieve
Plan - how are you going to do it.
Implement - actually doing it
Control - review and assess what you have done.
I often us this to make my approach more structured.
Good luck.
That does seem like a scary interview. I am sure that when you have done your prep the actual interview will not be quite so bad.ReplyDelete
Keep calm, smile and be yourself.
Sending you lots of love and encouragement this week. I shall b thinking of you thursday. Everything crossed
Can't offer any advise but can send good luck and encouragement. You can do it! Nothing is harder than parenthood, after all!ReplyDelete
Best of luck on Thursday! Look forward to hearing how it went. xReplyDelete
Good Luck! There is an award for you over at mine, but no pressure ( I didn't realise just how time consuming they are, and you have way more important things to think about - just wanted you to know I love your blog:))ReplyDelete
Please leave a comment. I love hearing from you! If you ask a question I will reply underneath your comment as soon as I can so please come back and check. Please feel free to 'pin' any of the projects I have made. I love Pinterest!!

Mets vs. Nationals: Live Stream, Injuries, Pitching Matchups and Fantasy PreviewJuly 16, 2012
The New York Mets travel to the nation's capital for a crucial three-game series against the NL East-leading Washington Nationals. It might be the dog days of summer, but neither team can afford to have a lackluster showing in this series.
After getting swept by the Atlanta Braves, the Mets must right the ship quickly if they plan on keeping pace in the division. The team wasn't expected to contend when the season started, but some clutch hitting has kept it within striking distance.
The next few weeks will be key.
On the other side, it was clear the Nationals were ready to take the next step toward the postseason, but not many people thought they were capable of running away with the NL East. They currently hold a three-game lead and have a chance to do exactly that.
It should be a great series between division rivals with a lot to play for. Here's a look at the key information for Game 1, a preview of what to watch throughout the series and a prediction for Tuesday's clash.
When: Tuesday, July 17 at 7:05 p.m. ET
Where: Nationals Park in Washington, D.C.
Watch: SNY (New York) and MASN (Washington)
Live Stream: MLB.tv
Injury Report (via CBS Sports)
Mets: Lucas Duda (questionable, hamstring), Jason Bay (questionable, concussion), Dillon Gee (out, shoulder) and Frank Francisco (out, oblique)
Nationals: Ian Desmond (questionable, oblique), Drew Storen (rehab, elbow), Chien-Ming Wang (rehab, hip) and Jayson Werth (out, wrist)
Starting for New York: Jonathon Niese
Niese is slowly, but surely, developing into the front-end starter the Mets were hoping for when they made him a full-time member of the rotation in 2010. He's always had the stuff but has really taken the next step by going deeper into games.
The 25-year-old lefty currently sports a 3.73 ERA, which is nearly a half run lower than any other season in his career. It would be even lower if not for some trouble keeping the ball in the park. He still has room for improvement in that area.
Niese has always had success against Washington. In four career starts, he's 2-0 with a 3.42 ERA. The Mets will need another strong performance from him on Tuesday if they plan on ending their losing streak and putting a series win within reach.
Chris Young and R.A. Dickey are scheduled to pitch Games 2 and 3.
Starting for Washington: Ross Detwiler
The results have been mixed since Detwiler returned to the rotation prior to the All-Star break. The Nationals have won two of his three starts, but he hasn't pitched particularly well, giving up seven earned runs in his last two outings.
Detwiler would fall under the category of a crafty lefty. He doesn't have a dominant strikeout pitch, limiting his margin for error. That said, he's capable of shutting down any offense when he's commanding his pitches to both sides of the plate.
He did have one of his best starts of the season against the Mets. All the way back in April, he pitched five shutout innings while giving up just two hits and striking out seven. That's no surprise, because the Mets have so many left-handed hitters in the lineup.
Jordan Zimmermann and Gio Gonzalez are scheduled to pitch Games 2 and 3.
Mets Fantasy Studs
David Wright
After a down season that left the Mets wondering if Wright was truly a franchise cornerstone, the third baseman has bounced back in a major way. He's near the top of the league with a .345 batting average to go along with 11 home runs and 59 runs batted in.
Making him an even more valuable fantasy asset is his ability to steal bases. That type of all-around production means he'll rarely have an off week. He should have no problem remaining one of the top players at the hot corner for the rest of the season.
Lucas Duda
Duda is dealing with a nagging hamstring issue, but the Mets offense can't afford for him to miss an extended period of time. The lineup doesn't have enough depth, and he's one of the few players on the roster capable of changing the game with one swing.
The outfielder has a career-high 12 home runs through 85 games, which is solid production from a player most owners plucked from the waiver wire to serve as a third outfielder or utility player.
As long as he stays healthy, he should top the 20-home run mark.
Nationals Fantasy Studs
Ian Desmond
Desmond has always showcased a lot of potential, but it appears he's finally put everything together at the plate. His massive improvement is one of the biggest reasons the Nationals are currently the top team in the National League.
He's hitting .287 with 17 home runs, 13 stolen bases and a .828 OPS. Not only has that been key for Washington, but also fantasy teams. Getting that type of production from a traditionally weak fantasy position is a huge advantage.
Bryce Harper
Although Harper's numbers haven't been on the same level as Los Angeles Angels phenom Mike Trout, they are still very good for a 19-year-old rookie. The hyped prospect has 11 stolen bases and eight home runs, becoming an integral part of the Nationals offense.
There was some concern when he first came up that it was only a short-term fix, but that clearly hasn't been the case. Harper should continue to improve as he becomes more comfortable facing major league pitching, which makes him a good fantasy piece to own.
Game 1 Prediction
Mets 5, Nationals 4

|Oracle FAQ
|Your Portal to the Oracle Knowledge Grid

The advantage of cloning techniques compared to export/import is that you receive an exact replica of the production system. Why would you want to exclude functions, procedures, packages, etc.? The idea is that before a change is promoted to production it is tested against a current copy of production. The worst circumstance is that you promote something to production only to discover after much anguish that production has a different version of a function, procedure, package, or etc. than the test database.
