text: Since my mail to Thomas was returned, I respond here: The person I know of who had oral/pharyngeal poison ivy wasn't taking it to get rid of a rash he already had--doing it on a dare I think. The people students have mentioned were allergic and had the rash at the time they ate the leaf--but then the rash went away. And I know there are those lucky people who don't get poison ivy and will rub a leaf on their skin to prove it. Lee Hadden

"There's space for everyone in the music business"Today we welcome a man by the name of Helder Rock, into the interview room,
Helder, welcome, how are you today?
Cool, thanks!
Great to here, Firstly tell us a bit about yourself and where you are from?
I was born in August 1965 and started my steps in music with the age of 6, at 15 studied Classical Guitar and then joined several groups of different genres, played Jazz, Hard Rock, New Age, Country and Folk, for several years worked as Roadie for several bands. I live in Stockport.
So, tell our readers, what is your talent?
I am an English multi-instrumentalist musician and composer, working a style that blends progressive rock, folk, ethnic or world music, classical music, electronic music, New Age.
Instrumental rock sounds interesting, what is it about instrumental rock that brings you so much enjoyment? How did you first get involved?
As I said I worked as Roadie for several bands and during those years my loss of hearing became bigger, this difficulty made me refrain from singing because I can't give the notes rightand so I decided to make instrumental music.
So far in your career, what has been the highlight?
Being able to get my Diploma in Music through the University, which hopefully I'll finish this coming term.
Who are your inspirations when making music? Is there a certain composer or piece of music that really puts you in the mood?
I work under the influence of sounds from artists like Jean-Michell Jarre, Vangelis, Kraftwerk, Mike Oldfield, Kitaro.But also Bach, Vivaldi and Beethoven.
I don't have a particular piece to name, as you can imagine I love Music and there is a very and I mean VERY wide range of music on my mind all the time, and I think that is that blend of music that ends up coming out in my work.
I had a listen to a couple of your songs and they felt very relaxing, is this a particular style you carry through your music?
I make the kind of music that I like but I can't find anywhere, therefore and as I said I have to do it myself.
I notice one of your songs was supporting a local hospice, are you a very keen supporter of charity?
Yes, before this one for St.Ann's Hospice, I made another one supporting the victims of the earthquake in Japan.
What a great way to help raise money, by making meaningful music.
If you could change anything about the way the industry currently is, what would it be and why?
Things changed a bit recently with the Internet helping to develop a few music sites where collaboration amongst musicians is possible and I do believe that in a very near future musicians will be able to take the industry in their own hands... But at the present moment what I really would like to see is the industry to stop worrying about profits and therefore stop to fabricate false pop idols and brainwash the public (particularly the young teenagers) with what in their interest is the "newest cool music fashion". Most of the best selling music (if we can call it that) at the moment has no musical quality at all; it is best selling because it was imposed by the industry to the public through the media, and as the cultural level of the majority is (unfortunately) low, what they see and hear in the media is what is good; I understand the media needs to survive and the incentives the music industry gives them to promote what the industry wants is too much to be refused. The public should be able to decide by themselves what they really like and not be driven by fashion makers that really don't care a bit for the public or for the Arts.
I would stop with things like the X-Factor, at least in the way that it is done now,where so many dreamers are made fools of themselves, and even the final results are manipulated in ways that won't fit in this space, everybody deserves an opportunity and like Billy Joel once said, there's space for everyone in the music business, so the best way is to let everyone have their moment, like I said in the beginning the Internet is giving the opportunity for everyone to publish their work, but there's still the issue of the promotion being crushed but the industry lords...
What more can we expect to hear from you in the future?
Until the end of this year I'm giving my contribution to 3 collective projects, and I'm already starting on my next album which will have a slight different approach in terms of sonority.
Well it has been great talking to you.
Take care and all the best for the future.

Junior Handling Reporting on Puppy Peaks Training Month 5
This month it was fun for me to find out that Libby is giving back to her community by being a 4-H leader. 4-H has grown around the world in their mission of "engaging youth" to reach their fullest potential. Seeing Libby spreading positive training to fellow juniors is very exciting. Libby herself a junior trainer/handler giving back already as a youth makes me smile ear to ear!
Here is Libby's Month 5 Puppy Peaks review.
Puppy Peaks: Month 5
I am the obedience trainer for our local 4-H Dog Club.
The club meets each week and teaches kids ages 9-18 how to train their dogs in obedience, rally, showmanship, and agility. I try to introduce different trainers to the kids so they can learn more about training in general. This week I thought I would talk to them a little bit about Susan Garrett.
All the kids love doing agility with their dogs, so when I told them a few of the things Susan has accomplished in agility, they started paying closer attention 🙂
I tried to think of a basic exercise that the kids could try with their dogs, and something that would make it possible for a few of them to have success. Because "ItsYerChoice" is important and not too complicated, I decided to teach it to them and see how it went.
At first, almost everyone was standing up, holding the cookie in his or her hand, above the dog's head. This either made the dog jump up in an attempt to get the cookie, or the dog gave up and ignored it since it was too far away. Once the kids put their hand at the dog's nose level, they started catching on and understanding the process.
There was one dog who was very food motivated; he was trying to get the cookie out of the girl's hand using multiple methods, but the girl did great and kept her fist closed while he was trying to eat her entire hand. After some practice, the dog was sitting and waiting attentively until she delivered the cookie to him. It was great to see how happy she was after the dog succeeded, and how happy the dog was, since he figured it out!
Waiting for your dog to make the right choice is not the typical method for dog training. Usually a kid's first thought is to bribe or force a dog to do what they want, but this is not as effective or nearly as fun for the dog. ItsYerChoice reframes the request so that the dog is on your team and is doing what you want because they want to do it as well. But it definitely takes more thought on the trainer's part and requires a new way of thinking – quite a challenge for young kids.
All the kids ended up doing really well; they enjoyed watching their dogs think and problem solve. IYC helped show them the importance of letting the dog use its brain, and how letting a dog think for itself will help create a dog that enjoys working for you.
Thanks Libby! Today I am grateful for Libby's enthusiasm to give back to her community and share a fun foundation game with her 4-H'ers!

I just started a 4-H club in our county. For the most part our county has been strong in livestock but hardly any other clubs. I really don't know what I am doing and would love for anyone to help me with advice, suggestions or training ideas. I have trained my own dogs just as pets, so I will be training mine for show and agility, real hands on for me. I want to do the best for the kids but we are pretty remote and the nearest dog club is about three hours away. I am really excited to learn so much more and to be a part of a strong dog 4-H club. So please I am open mined and would love to hear from anyone! Thank you for your time and advice.

I'm helping train one of our 4-h clubs in agility, and I'm having trouble finding ways to keep the kids excited about doing focus work with their dogs. Does anybody have any suggestions for fun ways or games to keep them interested?

text: G'day, we are planning a holiday in France that will have a visit Paris for several days and do a 7 day bike ride (heaven forbid). Having never been there before I'm interested to hear what are "The must visit"destinations. I'm thinking of putting a huge list together and then whittle it down to just what we can fit into our time there. Along with major attractions we would love to be able to walk, amble along, eat the food, drink the coffee in some of the most quaint areas of Paris so please lets know where these are also. Thanks for your help and looking forward to a magic holiday.

Mondays are usually a slow day around College Baseball so I will be checking in with my biggest five questions from the past weekend on every Monday.
- What has happened to the Nebraska program? They are coming off a 25-28-1 campaign and went a disappointing 8-19 in Big 12 play. It was only a few years ago when the Huskers were playing in Omaha in front of a partisan crowd.
- Oregon ended up going 3-1 this past weekend with wins over Cal-State Fullerton, Long Beach State, and Loyola-Marymount while losing to Pepperdine. Which Ducks team will show up for the 2010 Pac-10 conference schedule?
- Andrew Susac had an interesting start to his college career on Friday as he had two passed balls and two catcher's interference called on him before being lifted by Pat Casey. He only has one official at bat after Monday's game against Hawaii. This is an interesting development as Susac was expected to be an immediate contributor for the Beavers this season.
- I was speaking with Aman Reaka today who occasionally helps out around here and he made an excellent point about Dave Serrano's suspension that if he did it in the minor leagues that he would have been suspended longer then three games. Do you think the three game suspension was enough?
- Eastern Michigan and Kansas ended up splitting a doubleheader on Monday with EMU winning 3-1 before KU grabbed the nightcap 9-5. How will the injury to Thompson affect the KU offense? Today, it looked like the Jayhawks could have used him in the opener but hopefully Thompson is back for the conference season.

Restoring Women to World Studies
In much of the social studies—especially courses focused on world history, geography, and culture—there has been a long-standing awareness that the experience of women has been left out of the narrative. Recent changes in state, national, and Advanced Placement educational standards have sought to remedy this omission by calling for the inclusion of women's studies in the social studies curriculum. However, the most widely available resources tend to focus on the experience of women in Western Europe and North America.
Restoring Women to World Studies seeks to address these new requirements and the current regional bias in available resources. The unit is based on the 2007 Hemispheres Summer Teachers' Institute "Restoring Women to World Studies." That four-day workshop explored the situation of women—historical and contemporary—in Latin America, the Middle East, Russia, East Europe and Eurasia, and South Asia. The training sessions discussed the contributions of notable women to historical and artistic movements, talked about concepts of gender roles and gendered spaces, looked at issues that are driving women's movements today, and examined the greater context in which all of these take place.
In this unit, we have sought to address the Texas Essential Knowledge and Skills (TEKS) and National Geography Standards that explicitly deal with gender roles and social structures but also standards that address citizenship, processes of historical change, social movements and cultural differences. In addition, this unit draws on primary source readings, images, and maps to strengthen students' skills in working with primary source materials. Each case study is laid out in a Document-Based Question (DBQ) format so that students can cite, interpret, and evaluate sources; consider point of view; and use historical evidence to develop and support a thesis.
The unit begins with a PowerPoint that introduces the notion of gender as a key social category and patriarchy as an important organizing structure in many societies and cultures. The unit then examines these concepts within case studies from the four regions. Each case study is meant to encourage students to address questions about gender roles in the different societies, either in a particular historical moment or how they evolve over time. In addition to responding to each case study, students can analyze and compare the different primary source documents within the case studies by considering the following questions and their answers:
- How do women in patriarchal societies experience gender norms and ideals?
- How do women in patriarchal societies create change within the established order of society?
It is our hope that, with Restoring Women to World Studies, students will be able to better appreciate how gender functions within different societies at different times; understand how it both shapes individual lives and offers individuals opportunities to shape society; see similarities in women's experiences as well as differences; and appreciate that experiences of gender are influenced by other categories of identity (class, race, ethnicity, etc.) and are not frozen or merely restrictive but changing and challenged by women who respond to traditional understandings of gender roles and hierarchies.

GREAT BEND, Kan. (AP) — Barton Community College plans to rebuild a dining hall at Camp Aldrich that was an important gathering spot before it was destroyed by fire in April.
The college trustees voted Wednesday to work with the college's insurance company to replace the facility. The college hopes to have the hall reopened by April of next year.
The Great Bend Tribune reports (http://bit.ly/SdtwD7 ) trustees knew the camp was important to area residents but said they were surprised by the worried response they received after fire destroyed the hall April 12.
Dean of Administration Mark Dean says the new dining hall will have to meet state and federal guidelines, meaning the rustic look from its original timber construction likely will not be replicated because it will have to be non-combustible.

In the musical "Kiss Me, Kate," the deliciously named Lois Lane runs into a rich old beau at the stage door. "Don't you remember in front of the Harvard Club?" she says, batting her eyelids. "I had something in my eye and you took me to Atlantic City to take it out."
Ah, Bella and Sam Spewack -- she born in Romania, he in the Ukraine, and together masters of the American musical-comedy book. They don't write 'em like "Kate" anymore -- even when, as in the new backstage musical "Curtains," they explicitly try. Not only does this show have a Cole Porter score that wouldn't know a melodic misfire if one blew up in its face, but Porter's lyrics here are every bit as witty as the Spewacks' book. "If your blond won't respond when you flatter her," sing the un-p.c. gangsters in the show-stopping "Brush Up Your Shakespeare," "tell her what Tony told Cleopat-er-er."

Here are some of the internet's most interesting and popular cat related articles and videos collected and shared during this past week. Enjoy!
(To see more fun videos, fascinating stories and adorable pics, just visit our FB page!)
24 February: Your Cat's Environmental Needs: Practical Tips for Pet Owners
A short but very informative brochure jointly issued from the wonderfully knowledgeable folks at the American Association of Feline Practitioners (AAFP) and the International Society for Feline Medicine (ISFM). Feline environmental enrichment is vital to a cat's well-being and should be one of the first aspects considered when bringing one of these awesome creatures home.
25 February: 7 Reasons Why You Should Take a Pet First Aid Course
Here's a topic we don't discuss much – taking a pet first aid course. JaneA Kelley lists 7 reasons why doing so is really a very good idea.
Frankly, all I need is the most basic reason of all… having that information *could* make the difference between life and death for your cat!
25 February: In Praise of Older Cats
A wonderful discussion on the joys of adopting older cats.
25 February: Q&A: How can I prevent the 5:00am breakfast call?
No one wants to see this, especially not before dawn, yet it's one of the most common cat owner complaints. Learn how, with just a few simple changes and some patience, you can change this behavior forever!
27 February: Hyperthyroidism: The Growing Epidemic that Can Make Your Cat Extra Hungry
Yet another increasingly common feline disease is linked to commercial pet "foods."
Protect their health by taking the guess work out of feeding your cats – give them the fresh whole foods nature intended for them to eat!
27 February: Hiccups in Cats and Kittens: Is this a Serious Condition?
Ever heard your kitty hiccup? Did it worry you? Read when it should – and shouldn't – be a cause for alarm.
28 February: The Secret Life of a Cat: What mischievous moggies get up to behind their owners' backs
An interesting look at the roaming habits of 50 domestic cats in the UK, where allowing cats free outside access is far more prevalent than the US.
Although there are very good reasons for keeping cats inside (some of which are even underscored by what the researchers discovered), learning what these cats do when left to their own devices is fascinating.

Befunky Cartoonizer is a fun online application tool where you can make a cartoon based on a photo. No Photoshop or fancy software is required. You first upload a photo - the example here is Hillary Clinton and then in a few very easy steps, create a black and white sketch or a colored cartoon version. So, you can in essence, make sketches of yourself or anyone else without being able to draw!
This website also lets you create uvatar - avatars based on photos of yourself which is far more personalized and great for Facebook, Myspace and other social network sites. Their tips and tricks section give you some idea of the many ways you can use their applications. One great function of their "wrap†feature is to digitally make you lose 50 lbs! For instance, changing other photos into sketches could give you a way of making a custom cartoon strip. The annual family newsletter will never be the same again. So go ahead and "boost your creativity!â€

What does oleanolic acid mean?
Definitions for oleanolic acid
Here are all the possible meanings and translations of the word oleanolic acid.
oleanolic acid(Noun)
A pentacyclic triterpenoid carboxylic acid found in many plants; an isomer of ursolic acid
Oleanolic acid
Oleanolic acid or oleanic acid is a naturally occurring triterpenoid, widely distributed in food and medicinal plants, related to betulinic acid. It can be found in Phytolacca americana, and Syzygium spp, garlic, etc. It is relatively non-toxic, hepatoprotective, and exhibits antitumor and antiviral properties. Oleanolic acid was found to exhibit weak anti-HIV and weak anti-HCV activities, but more potent synthetic analogs are being investigated as potential drugs. It was first studied and isolated from several plants, including Rosa woodsii, Prosopis glandulosa, Phordendron juniperinum, Syzygium claviflorum, Hyptis capitata, and Ternstromia gymnanthera. Other Syzygium species including java apple and rose apples contain it. An extremely potent synthetic triterpenoid analog of oleanolic acid was found in 2005, that is a powerful inhibitor of cellular inflammatory processes. They work by the induction by IFN- of inducible nitric oxide synthase and of cyclooxygenase 2 in mouse macrophages. They are extremely potent inducers of the phase 2 response, which is a major protector of cells against oxidative and electrophile stress.
U.S. National Library of Medicine
Oleanolic Acid
A pentacyclic triterpene that occurs widely in many PLANTS as the free acid or the aglycone for many SAPONINS. It is biosynthesized from lupane. It can rearrange to the isomer, ursolic acid, or be oxidized to taraxasterol and amyrin.

Dutch Design Week: Lift-Off Loves (Part 2 of 2)
Tof Design
Ready for more from Lift-Off Loves? Check out the latest from Tof Design, Floor van Ast and David Krings, Asylum Collection, BLOK meubel and finally, Ontwerpers.
Tof Design - Pressed wood never looked so good over at Tof Design. Partners Niels Blok and Jet Vlietstra form this exciting design duo.
Giving the common metal fan a bit of an upgrade with a warmer tactile feel, you can position them however you please - roll them around, mount them on the wall - whatever works best for your space. Tof briefcases are in production and will soon be sold for around 250 Euro each, the fans and other items are prototypes.
Floor van Ast and David Krings - Both Floor and David hope to bring the traditional Dutch kitchen into the 21st century with their fresh take on common tools. Their display included gadgets for smoking fish, canning and lemonade storage, a cake display, along with cookie stamps and other misc. items. Most shown in porcelain or glass. Prototypes only, not yet for sale.
Asylum Collection - This stimulating collection is the result of a collaboration between Bo Reudler aned Seroj de Graaf, who completed internships with both Marcel Wanders and Richard Hutten. Reudler and Graaf feel that "Minimalism doesn't satisfy any longer - it served it's fuction but neglected fantasy." Through their range of products for the interior, they seek to stimulate emotion and imagination. After much constructive criticism, nominations, and an award, they've decided to start production on the collection this year.
BLOK meubel - Eindhoven-based Furniture designers Maurice Blok and Anke van Gestel introduced their prototype 'Cut Chair' in oak, glass, steel and concrete.

"The king was shaken. He went up to the room over the gateway and wept. As he went, he said: "O my son Absalom! My son, my son Absalom! If only I had died instead of you—O Absalom, my son, my son!" II Samuel 18:33
Samuel tells us that …."In all Israel there was not a man so highly praised for his handsome appearance as Absalom. From the top of his head to the sole of his foot there was no blemish in him." This beautiful son of King David was a man riddled with rebellion and hatred. He avenges the rape of his sister, Tamar, by her brother Amnon by murdering him. He lives many years totally estranged from his father- never seeing David's face and sets in motion a conspiracy to take the throne of Israel-the throne of his own father-by a coup d'etat. In the end, as he is riding his mule, he is caught in the crotch of a tree, hanging by the neck and ultimately killed by Joab, who plunged three javelins into his heart as he hanged in the tree.
What a picture to be seen! We live our lives as Absalom, being the center of our universe, thinking ourselves equal to the King, looking to overthrow and set ourselves up as the ruler of our lives, our own kingdoms. Thinking ourselves wise and confident and in the right, we live in estrangement from our Father King, going for times upon times without seeing our Father's face. David loved his son deeply, "And the spirit of the king longed to go to Absalom"….. Absalom's father was powerless to stop him.
Today is Good Friday. Today is the day that our Father King became His own Son-an obedient Son-in
whom was found no sin, no blemish. A Son who rode into Jerusalem on a donkey and was hanged
on a tree and pierced in the side with a spear, a Son who, for a moment in time, became the sin and
rebellion and was totally estranged from His own Father. Our Father King - whose Spirit longed to
come to us - became the Son and died in our stead. What David wished he could have done for his
child, our Father, who is not a powerless Father nor a powerless King, did do for us.
Bible Verse for Good Friday:
"It was now about the sixth hour, and darkness came over the whole land until
the ninth hour, for the sun stopped shining. And the curtain of the temple was
torn in two. Jesus called out with a loud voice, "Father, into your hands I commit
my spirit." When he had said this, he breathed his last. The centurion, seeing
what had happened, praised God and said, "Surely this was a righteous man."
Luke 23:44-47 (NIV)

Irma performs "It's Raining" at Legends Of Louisiana 4-14-2007
Irma Thomas, like Fats Domino, Aaron and Art Neville, and thousands of other New Orleanians, lost all her possessions
in the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina when the levees breached, flooding much of the Crescent City. But she didn't take
long to start a new collection. Like Aaron Neville, she was not in town at the time. Neville was in New York and Thomas
was performing at Antone's in Austin, Texas. Because her whereabouts were unknown when the storm hit, she, like Fats
Domino, was initially reported as missing. Domino was rescued by boat from his flooded 9th Ward home and in due course,
Thomas was located.
Watching the storm's carnage on television in Austin, Thomas and her manager-husband, Emile Jackson, were devastated to
see an almost submerged 20-foot-high street sign in her New Orleans East neighborhood. "Honey," she said to Jackson,
"you know we don't have no home." Antone's management, realizing she wasn't leaving Austin for the time being,
invited her to play an additional night. The following day, she and Jackson flew to Alexandria and drove to Baton
Rouge and eventually settled in Gonzales, a city on I-10 between Baton Rouge and New Orleans while her New Orleans
home was undergoing renovations. In March 2007, she was still working to get her home ready for occupancy. "I'd already
be in it if they'd hurry up and get it paint," she said. The house, built in the '70s, has no central drain in the bathroom,creating logistic problems in installing a pre-fabricated shower. "We're working on it, though," she said.
Soon after moving in with her husband's aunt in Gonzales, she notified a friend by e-mail that she was safe. "I am doing
okay for now," she said, "but I don't know how long it will be before I can get help from FEMA. Thanks for beingconcerned. Tell all of my fans I thank them."
She performed benefits for Katrina victims with Bruce Springsteen, Elvis Costello, and Dr. John. She sang with Bonnie Raitt
and Allen Toussaint for the grand finale of the 2006 Grammy Awards and also appeared in the hurricane relief concert atMadison Square Garden a few weeks after Katrina.
She was born Irma Lee on February 18, 1941, in Ponchatoula, a city in Tangipahoa Parish, about an hour northwest
of New Orleans. She lived for a time with her father's family in Greensburg in adjacent St. Helena Parish before moving
with her parents to New Orleans. Pregnant at age 14 and forced to marry the child's father, she soon had a second
baby before the marriage disintegrated. With a failed marriage and two children at age 16, she started waiting tables at
what would later become the Pimlico Club on the corner of South Broad and Eve Street. At 17, she met Andrew
Thomas whom she married and two more children followed – all before she was 20.
When that marriage also failed, she kept the name Thomas. Meanwhile, she was gaining a reputation as a talented singer
while sitting in with Tommy Ridgley & the Untouchables at the club. Originally, the club catered to whites and blacks –
with separate entrances. The whites entered from the front and the blacks from the rear of the building. Finally, it was
converted into what in those days was called a "colored'" club. Now the Pimlico Club, it began offering live entertainment
Wednesday through Sunday nights. Thomas was making four dollars per night, plus tips, to wait tables. Eventually,patrons started asking for the "singing waitress," and that upset her boss, who felt he was paying her to be a waitress, not an entertainer.
When she was fired for her singing, Ridgley immediately took her to Ron Records where she cut her first record, You
Can Have My Husband (But Don't Mess With My Man) which climbed to number 22 on the Billboard R&B chart in
May of 1960. A dispute over royalties ensued and she signed with Minit Records where she worked with Allen Toussaint,recording It's Raining, Ruler of My Heart, and I Done Got Over.
Otis Redding, while in New Orleans, heard her sing Ruler of My Heart, re-worked the lyrics slightly and released
his own version, Pain in My Heart, which reached number 11 on the Billboard R&B chart in November of 1963 and
number 61 on the pop charts in February of 1964. In March 1964, she had her biggest hit with I Wish Someone
Would Care, b/w Breakaway (the latter written by Jackie DeShannon and Sharon Sheeley), which climbed to number 17.
She said she was at a low point in her life when she wrote I Wish Someone Would Care. "It was the only song I wrote
myself," she said. Her second marriage was coming apart over her husband's objections to her pursuing a singing career.
"It was a song from my heart," she told author Jeff Hannusch. "That's probably why it sold so well. I really wantedsomeone to care, to stand beside me and care."
In December 1964, the Rolling Stones had a number six hit when they covered Time Is on My Side, a song she first recorded.
The song recently surfaced on a television ad for Slim Fast diet drink, but was sung by neither Irma Thomas nor the Stones.
"If they'd used my version, I would've collected royalties, but they used some generic version," she said. Arguably,
one of her best recordings was a cover of Nat King Cole's sentimental Looking Back, a song that never even charted.
Her career took a downward turn during her tenures with Imperial and Chess records and in January 1970, in the aftermath
of 1969's Hurricane Camille, she moved to California, first to Oakland and then to Los Angeles. She sold auto parts for
Montgomery Ward in both cities during the day and took night club gigs when and where she could. She also recordedunremarkable songs for several small labels.
In 1976, she moved back to New Orleans and to her surprise, found that she was still popular in her home town as a live
performer. "When I left New Orleans, I couldn't get a gig. Things changed over time and she finally decided to come home
"because I was working more in New Orleans than L.A.," she said. The following year she married Jackson who tookover as her manager and she became a regular performer at the New Orleans Jazz and Heritage Festival.
She and Jackson set about rejuvenating her career, even opening a nightclub, the Lion's Den, on Gravier Street near Broad.
She played at the opening ceremonies for the Harrah's Grand Casino in downtown New Orleans and at the city's
Essence Music Festival. She has toured in Japan, Germany, Switzerland, France, The Netherlands, Italy, and Greece.The Lion's Den was one of those suffering damage from Katrina and she said she has no plans to re-open.
She won a pair of W.C. Handy awards even though she didn't know she had been nominated either time – she considers
herself an R&B singer, not blues in the classic sense – and she received two Grammy nominations in contemporary
blues. All those awards were lost in the Katrina flooding but Thomas refuses to be a victim. "I felt the loss," she said,
"but I've never been very materialistic. I like my things. Every woman does. But if it's lost, so be it and that's the wayI feel about the things I lost in Katrina. I'm still alive and I can make more music."
More music indeed. Recorded at the Dockside Studio in Maurice, Louisiana only months after Katrina, After the Rain
would seem to be a requiem for victims of the devastating hurricane. Actually, the songs for the album were selected
before Katrina nevertheless she won her only Grammy in 2007 for Best Contemporary Blues Album. Featured on the
album are pianist David Torkanowsky, fiddler Dirk Powell and slide guitarist Sonny Landreth. Her reaction to winning
the Grammy was vintage Irma. "First of all, I want to say thank you, God," she said. "And thank you, New Orleans.Forty-nine years you believed in me and it finally paid off."
A non-drinker and non-smoker, Thomas has one firm rule for her band: no drinking "because whenever something
happens, you're representing me. I don't indulge in any kind of things that's gonna make me not be clear-headed
when I'm performing. I don't drink, I don't smoke, I don't do any kind of drugs and these are the kind of musicians
I want," she said. "Otherwise, I don't need them." Her only apparent vice manifested itself minutes before a Baton Rouge
performance in March of 2007 when she requested a cup of hot water – "hot like coffee, if you don't mind, dear" –and Splenda, flavored with lemon.
She performed at a 1999 memorial for Tommy Ridgley at Tipitina's, an event that held special meaning for her. "He was
the wind beneath my wings," she said. "He goes back to my beginning and I feel good that I was able to express my
gratitude. If he hadn't brought me to the places where the talent could be heard, I could be washing dishes or waiting
tables." A high school dropout, Irma obtained her GED and, defying all odds, began a successful pursuit of a college
degree in business. Even with a college degree, a pair of W.C. Handy Awards, a Grammy, and recognition as the Soul
Queen of New Orleans, she doesn't consider herself special. I'm just Irma," she said, "and you either like what you see,or you don't like what you see. Every day I wake up and I'm still alive, thank God."
"I came up in a good time, I think, for music," she told Blues Access in 2000. "It was a growing time." There weren't manyfemale vocalists around after whom to style herself, but she did learn from New Orleans native Mahalia Jackson and Pearl Bailey.
Other influences included John Lee Hooker and Lowell Fulson. "If someone had told me when I was six years old, in the
middle of the strawberry patch, dancing and singing Boogie Chillen, that I'd ever be on the same stage with John Lee
Hooker!" she said. I'm not in awe of very many people, but I was in awe of him. I really consider myself blessedbecause I never thought I would be sharing a stage with these people.
Asked if she would do anything differently in her life if given the chance, her answer was both quick and somewhat
surprising in that she didn't consider her personal life as many people would when responding to such a question.
"Career-wise, I would have gotten better management," she said. "Rock and Roll was still in its infancy back then and
there were a lot of unsophisticated performers who didn't know how to take care of themselves. At the same, there were
a lot of smooth operators just waiting to prey on us. A lot of artists lost a lot of money to record companies, managers,
and booking agents." Still, just as with Katrina, she refuses to be a victim or to change. "Whenever my body says slow down,
I will. Until that time, I have no plans to stop.
On April 14, 2007 at the LMHOF "Legends Of Louisiana Celebration & Inductions" concert in Mandeville, Louisiana,
Irma Thomas was inducted into The Louisiana Music Hall Of Fame.

The back is finally presentable, so I thought I'd share some pictures. Caution, many include a small child doing cute things.
Zoe enjoys being pants and diaper free like Max.
We still have a bunch of big honking containers that need filling, but I think we're off to a good start. I'm so happy we scored the wooden playhouse on Craigslist. Zoe hangs out in it all the time. I'll take more close up plant pics when they're bigger and more exciting. I took a bunch of perennials we had in pots in Oakland and set them free in the ground.

It's important to realise that achieving success in the property market isn't about one 'silver bullet' strategy, but rather a series of building blocks that you have to get right to achieve the results you are seeking.
(PRWEB) June 11, 2014
In a unique "double feature" Creative Real Estate podcast, property investment mentor Rick Otton has shared a range of tips and strategies that he has developed over many years of successful and innovative property investing. A highlight of the podcast was his chat with one of his students, Dina.
"I often find that when people begin using the approaches that I outline in my books, or after attending one of my seminars, they get caught up in the moment when it starts to work for them. I guess it's human nature that the excitement of the moment carries them away a bit, and they start 'freestyling' by moving away from my strategy," he went on to observe.
"That's why my chat with Dina was so great. Her experience showed that it's natural to start trying to tweak the strategy that I teach when it starts to work for you, but that ultimately, it pays to stay true to a proven method," Mr Otton said after the interview.
"And of course, the other big lesson from Dina's experience, is to make sure you deal with both halves of a couple when it comes to something as important as buying a house!" laughed Mr Otton.
Strategies For Working With Real Estate Agents
Continuing the theme, the second half of the podcast went on to focus on another party to real estate transactions – the real estate agents.
"After dealing with literally hundreds of real estate agents over the years, you begin to understand the profession and the mindset a little better," Mr Otton explained.
"The benefit of my experience is that I can offer the property investors using my strategy a shortcut – by suggesting some creative strategies when dealing with real estate agents, so that everyone walks away from the deal happy," he went on to say.
Private Lenders
In the information-rich podcast, Mr Otton also covered his experience with private lenders and the benefits and rates of return that investors should expect from such parties.
"Private lenders are an interesting feature of the property investment market, but they aren't as well understood as, say, the banks or building societies. Because of this I thought it was important to cover them in this podcast too," Mr Otton said after wrapping up the recording.
Mr Otton signed off the podcast with a guiding note to investors who took the time to listen to his podcast.
"It's important to realise that achieving success in the property market isn't about one 'silver bullet' strategy, but rather a series of building blocks that you have to get right to achieve the results you are seeking. Getting those details right is the focus of this podcast."

It tells you something when progressive socialists attack those who warn of ISIS infiltration into America as fear mongering. Take a moment to watch this video interview with Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah) with Fox News Megyn Kelly. Those of us in the know have been aware for some time that the U.S. Border Patrol has been documenting what it terms OTMs (Other Than Mexicans), individuals not of Hispanic origin who are being detained crossing, or are successful in crossing our border.
The Secretary of Homeland Security, Jeh Johnson, doesn't impart much confidence to the viewer that he's competent in executing his duties – but then again, his primary job qualification for appointment was being a top Obama donor.
So, if the progressive Left doesn't want to trust their lying eyes, perhaps there are others who can provide them validity and seriousness in this situation.
According to Fox News — and folks, trust me, I scour Leftist media outlets for lots of information and on occasion I see reports — "The union representing America's immigration caseworkers warned Thursday of the "real and serious threat" that Islamic State terrorists could gain entry to the United States, either by slipping through the southern U.S. border or exploiting "loose and lax" visa policies. Kenneth Palinkas, president of the National Citizenship and Immigration Services Council, issued the warning in a written statement. He's the latest to raise alarm that the Islamic State may be planning to infiltrate the U.S., though top security officials have said they see no evidence of such a plot at this stage. Palinkas specifically alleged the administration has made it easier for terrorists to "exploit" the country's visa policies and enter the homeland. "
So maybe the union buddies will convince America that the Obama administration isn't serious about securing our border — regardless of what Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid said about our southern border never being more secure.
Perhaps we can outsource our border security to some Syrian Islamist rebels as well. Certainly they'd appreciate an American taxpayer-funded trip to our vast Southwest.
Fox says, "Palinkas further warned that executive orders being contemplated by President Obama would "legalize visa overstays" and raise "the threat level to America even higher." He said there is "no doubt" many are already being "targeted for radicalization." Palinkas' union represents 12,000 workers with U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, which handles immigration documents.
Fox also says, "on Wednesday, Rep. Jason Chaffetz, R-Utah, said at a House hearing with Homeland Security Secretary Jeh Johnson that he had "reason to believe" that four individuals were apprehended trying to cross into the U.S. from Texas on Sept. 10, and that they "have ties to known terrorist organizations in the Middle East." Johnson said he had "heard reports to that effect" but could not speak to their accuracy."
However, as dismissive as the Obama administration has been about the threat along our very porous southern border, in August, the Texas Department of Public Safety put out a bulletin that said ISIS social media messages showed "militants are expressing an increased interest in the notion that they could clandestinely infiltrate the southwest border of the U.S., for terror attack."
So whom shall America believe? The president, who defiantly tells us that ISIS is not Islamic, or the enemy who clearly tells us their intent? You can keep your doctor, al-Qaida is decimated and on the run, we have ended the Iraq war — the list of deception just grows.
But this little game of lies has severe consequences for our America. This enemy knows it has almost 27 months to freely operate and position itself to attack America. They have already evidenced their brutality in beheading two American citizens and our response has been to blow up some trucks and ask fellow Islamic terrorists to handle the situation for us. The recently foiled plot in Australia should serve to alert us to the most dangerous course of action this enemy is willing to take.
And we still have those who believe that if we fight back, we only make them hate us more and increase their recruitment. Message to the "coexist" crowd: when someone beheads your citizens — they hate you plenty.

Warehouse 13 Review: "Vendetta"Jim Garner at . Comments
Consider the Warehouse 13 game changed.
On "Vendetta," H.G. Wells was back - and no longer wanted. However, against Artie's wishes, she was reinstated to full agent.
I had mentioned previously that I wondered if the show was going to pull a twist on us and have her turn out to actually be a good guy. This development clearly pointed that direction. I really hope that Wells is exactly who she says she is for two reasons:
- I really like Jamie Murray who plays Wells and brings such a charm to the show with her accent and more "steam punk" style inventions.
- The "I am pretending to be good to get something from you" storyline has been used so many times at this point.
I am really hoping the show has more imagination than that. Please let Wells remain a good guy and join the cast; she has such great potential. A positive sign: there's cast photo wallpaper on the SyFy website showing all four women (Lena, Claudia, Myka, and Wells).Speaking of being reinstated, we met yet another new Regent today, Kosan. I'm glad the series is expanding a bit on the Regents and what role they play in the Warehouse.
Kosan appears to be the top dog as he was the one who could reinstate Wells. So now we have met Valda, who tries to make the team feel smaller by bullying them, and Kosan, who clearly does not need to bully the team as his presence seem to do that for him. Is someone keeping a Regent roster so we can all compare notes later?
While we had not seen Agent Dickenson since early in the first season when Claudia used his computer to hack into the warehouse, it was very sad (and a bit gruesome) that he got killed with an artifact. I don't fully understand how a Russian could walk into the NSA or Secret Service buildings without being noticed.
This brings us to our heartbroken junior agent Claudia. She finally figured out Todd and he turns out to be in the witness protection program and has to be moved again. Poor Claudia just can't get a break romantically - Fargo is in Eureka and now Todd is gone. Maybe Claudia should take a lesson from Pete and find herself a nice doctor type.
Speaking of doctor types, did anyone else catch that Pete made no mention of Kelly and Agent Katie Logan made a return appearance? I wondered if this episode was actually suppose to have aired closer to the "Around the Bend" where Logan was first introduced. I am sure we will see Kelly again, even if it's only to break Pete's heart by dumping him, as clearly Warehouse agents don't get to have love lives.
What did you think of tonight's episode? Are you glad H.G. Wells is on the team? Or is Artie correct and she should not be trusted?

The lights are on
What new ideas the game brings to the table and how well old ideas are presented.
How good a game looks, taking into account any flaws such as bad collision or pop-up.
Does the game's music and sound effects get you involved or do they make you resolve to always play with the volume down?
Basically, the controller to human interface. The less you think about the hunk of plastic in your hands, the better the playability.
Flat out, just how fun the game is to play. The most important factor in rating a game.
My chronology of world history might be off the mark, but I believe Too Human's conception predates the Boston Tea Party. More of an ancient relic than a new release, this game entered development nearly a decade ago, and was originally slated to be a PlayStation One title. Sliding from one console generation to the next, time turned this lost game into a pixelated Sasquatch – some people claimed to have seen it, gushing that it innovates in ways that gamers have never seen, while others heard it was going to be the largest game ever made, requiring no fewer than four discs to contain its weighty content. After all these years and stories, this mythical game is finally upon us. Like most exposed legends, the truth behind it is a monumental letdown.
Unless you find yourself waking up in the middle of the night in a cold sweat craving a Diablo-like loot fest, you'll likely never want to hear anything about Too Human again. It's not a terrible game, but even huge fans of looting will think twice about calling it average. If your fondest gaming memories consist of reworking skill trees, and enhancing weapons and armor with effects, you'll be pleased to hear that the best parts of this game are all found within the menus. You can customize everything. There are tons of weapons and armor to find and purchase, and a dizzying amount of effects you can apply to them. You can even apply a rune that changes the color of your gear so it all matches.
When you peel away the extensive customization and...well...menus, Too Human runs into a world of trouble. The main offender is the combat. I like the idea behind the analog-based system, and I did occasionally catch glimpses of why it could be brilliant. But I mostly found it an uncooperative mess that doesn't give the precision needed for specific combat situations. By tapping the right analog in different directions, you can bounce between enemy troops all day long. But what happens when you throw an enemy that explodes on contact into the mix? The logical choice is to abandon melee and use long-range firearms. This would work if you could actually target the desired enemy. All you can do is point in the general direction and hope the targeting system highlights your enemy. If it doesn't pick up your target, enjoy dying and watching the lengthy regeneration sequence. Standard battles are bothersome for all the wrong reasons, and the boss fights are so poorly designed or overcharged with hit points that they seem like parodies of real boss battles.
Too Human is an unbalanced mess. Of the five selectable classes, only the Bio Engineer can heal himself. The other classes must rely on the dumb luck of a downed enemy dropping a use-on-contact health boost. Player death for the other four classes is routine. While playing through the single-player campaign, the game seems to be designed exclusively with cooperative play in mind – with one person playing the healer and the other a tank. Co-op is definitely the way to play this game. However, you will be doing so at the expense of the story. None of the cutscenes from the single-player game are integrated into the co-op mix.
This may sound like a bad thing, but it's actually a blessing in disguise. This tale, which throws Norse mythology and science fiction into a malfunctioning blender, is a sizeable train wreck that doesn't stop. It just keeps getting worse as it goes, unintentionally turning hallowed characters Thor and Loki into stooges that you can't help but point at and openly mock. On one hand, you want the game to provide more narrative to tie things together. On the other hand, you want less, because it's hard to endure as is.
In the end, Too Human is all about players sculpting their ideal killing machines. If you enjoy leveling and looting, it's well worth a look. If you only have a moderate interest, Too Human's aggravating gameplay and irreparable plot won't deliver many thrills. Maybe another nine years of development time would have helped.
Email the author Andrew Reiner, or follow on Twitter, Facebook, and Game Informer.
Now is the time to temper your expectations. Too Human is not a bad game – it employs a unique approach to action that provides some solid thrills - but the occasional combat high isn't enough to bridge the gaps in other areas. It feels like substantial pieces of the game are missing: Only one class can heal itself, targeting is an absolute mess, and the overwrought story is average at best (and unintentionally funny at worst). The analog fighting mechanic does its job, but the real problem is in the balancing. Encounters in the single-player campaign feel designed for multiplayer, since the specialized skillset of a single class is easily outmatched by enemies with varying abilities. You can play co-op to circumvent the issue, but the multiplayer is inexplicably separate from the campaign mode despite the fact you use the same character and play the same stages. I enjoyed upgrading my character and gathering new gear, but if you are under the impression that Too Human is anything more than a mildly entertaining (and mildly flawed) way to collect loot and experience, you're going to be disappointed.

We already know Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding was nothing short of spectacular, and now Kendall and Kylie Jenner are dishing on their sister's big day.
The youngest members of the Kardashian clan appeared on Good Morning America on Tuesday, where they opened up about the couple's nuptials, which took place at the historic Forte di Belvedere in Florence, Italy, on May 24.
"The whole wedding was just filled with so much love," Kylie said when asked to share her favorite moment from the duo's I-dos. "It was just really amazing to watch that."
"Everything was amazing," Kendall added. "And to see two people so happy. I think that that was probably my favorite part."
The sisters also opened up about their bridesmaid dresses, which we have yet to see in full detail (with the exception of Khloé's bootylicious Instagram), and as expected, Yeezy had a say in what the bridal party wore.
"We just wore some simple pretty gowns that Kim and Kanye picked out," Kendall said.
Meanwhile, Kim has since returned to Los Angeles following the couple's romantic honeymoon in Ireland. The 33-year-old beauty touched down at LAX in a cleavage-baring number on Sunday and revealed that she had the "best most relaxing romantic honeymoon in Ireland & Prague!"
While the duo was away, Kim and Kanye's daughter, North West, remained at home with grandma Kris Jenner, and of course, Kim couldn't wait to see her baby girl upon her arrival in L.A.
"Missed my baby girl so much! Excited to be home to squeeze her so tight!" the mother of one tweeted.
During their trip, Kim and Kanye went sightseeing during an early morning, hour-long mountain trek in Ballyhoura, where West had biked several years ago while visiting the country for work. The two also visited Multiplex Cinemas in Tullamore, where they reportedly saw The Other Woman. After a few days, they traveled to Prague in order to witness stylist Renelou Padora's wedding.
As for how the couple is settling into married life?
Kim tweeted Monday, "Love being Mrs. West."
To see the road to Kim Kardashian and Kanye West's wedding—from L.A. to Paris to Italy—tune in to the new season of Keeping Up With the Kardashians, premiering June 8 on E!

We all have dreams, a life we want to live, a job we want to do, a mark we want to leave, but what separates those of us who only dream from those of us whose dreams come true?
Is it money? Is it education? Is it the right connections? Could be. It could be some of all of those, but that doesn't explain the people who live their dreams and accomplish great things without any of those. It must be something else.
One thing most people have in common whose dreams come true is that they believed it, sacrificed for it, and made their daily choices as if it were possible.
If we truly believe, we make different choices. If we're not believing, we really aren't actively moving toward our dream at all. We're just thinking positively about it and wishing for it. One is active and doing, and the other isn't because more than likely we're not truly believing it is possible. We're accepting the defeat that keeps us from moving forward and making the daily decisions that propels us in the direction of our dreams.
What leading lady wants to live a life of defeat? That is most certainly not the dream. Be brave. You can do this.
I believe in the power of writing things down. Sit down and write your dream. What do you need to do to be moving in that direction? Make your decisions for the day like you believe your dreams are possible. If you believed your dreams were completely possible, what would you be doing differently today to move toward them? That is what you need to be doing. That is what will make dreams come true.

Model-turned-actress Megan Fox can't wait to sink her teeth into her next role - as a demon-possessed boy eater.
The 22-year-old will play a groupie whom a rock band sacrifices as part of a deal with the devil but they pick the wrong girl and she comes back looking for blood, reports contactmusic.com.
"It's a really dark comedy with a lot of secret messages lying underneath the script. I play the captain of the flag team and I get improperly sacrificed by this rock band, who are trying to obtain a record deal - so they sell their soul to Satan. They need to sacrifice a virgin," she said.
"I'm not a virgin (in the film), so what happens is I get taken over by a demon and, in order to stay alive in this sort of undead period, I have to eat flesh, so I eat boys," she added.

If you're a Pilot, check out the Top 5 reasons why Republic is the top regional airline in the industry.
That's right! $64,900 average total compensation for a first-year First Officer at Republic. No spin, no factoring in a watered-down signing bonus like other regionals. In addition to our best-in-class Pilot contract, Republic also gives:
Ask any of our Pilots, and they will tell you our 10 premier base locations are among the top reasons they chose to fly for Republic. We're talking New York, Chicago, Washington, D.C., Philadelphia and Miami, to name a few. Some regional carriers only have two or three bases - and that can mean long, challenging commutes. Not at Republic. Combine our bases options with our all-Embraer fleet, and then factor in our skilled Associates in Dispatch, Maintenance and Inflight, and don't forget our award-winning safety record, and the choice is clear.
Simply put, our passengers and codeshare partners prefer the Embraer 170/175. It's THE hottest aircraft in the regional space, and that's why it's the only fleet type Republic flies. In fact, we're the world's largest operator of these high-tech Brazilian-made marvels. So, if you're a Pilot looking for the best equipment, think Republic. Our new long-term agreements with American Airlines, Delta and United, an industry-leading Pilot contract and our superior maintenance and impeccable safety record make Republic the clear choice.
You want stability, long-term stability? Republic has it. Our new codeshare agreements with mainline partners American Airlines, Delta and United date as far out as 2029. That means business security unrivaled in a constantly changing industry. These contracts are paramount in establishing a strong foundation and a bright future for the Company. Our partners choose us because they know we provide the safest, cleanest and most reliable flying experience in the regional business. Why work anywhere else?
Quality of life – often touted but ignored by many of our competitors – is a key part of our industry-leading Republic Pilot contract (ratified Oct. 2015). Junior manning? Not at Republic -- your days off are yours; no forced call-ins like other carriers. Super Bowl Sunday? It's one of our eight paid holidays. Every step of the way, we provide the best in top work rules, and that translates into quality of life unmatched by other regionals. How do we know? Well, it can be best measured by the number of First Officer applications and new hires coming from the ranks of competing airlines. Join them!

The City of Calgary's acquisition of the former Klippert gravel pit presented an outstanding opportunity to restore the ecological integrity of the area, while at the same time enhancing the recreational and educational value of the east side of Bowmont Park.
The redevelopment of the Bowmont Natural Environment Park will include stormwater wetlands, wildlife habitat, trails for cycling and walking, and lookout points across the scenic river valley. Participating as members of the infrastructure design team, the lead artists on The City's innovative Watershed+ program have been contributing to the project design, working alongside the engineers and consultants to create an engaging space for Calgarians to renew their relationship with the Bow River watershed.
The park's location in the floodplain offers a rare opportunity to protect the Bow River by incorporating green stormwater treatment as a functional element of the park. The stormwater elements will also provide a major park amenity that contributes to visitors' experience in the park.
Work began in November 2015 and is expected to be complete in winter 2017.
To see current and past project construction notices please click on the links below:
Open houses were held between 2012-2014. You can view survey results and the a summary of stakeholder engagement here.
Design development work to integrate the former Klippert gravel pit into the park is expected to start this spring. Park visitors are reminded to respect the area as a construction zone, and all closures along the pathways, trails and within the park.

Alex Morgan has reacted to today's news that she has been 'drafted' to Portland to play for the Portland Thorns.
She told a NWSL press conference that she was:
" .. excited to be considered part of the Portland Thorns organization and I'm happy to see where all of my other teammates were allocated."
Summing up the views of her USA colleagues, she added:
"As part of the national team we're very excited to be part of this league, to grow the game of soccer in the U.S. and for me personally to continue my dream of playing in the U.S."
Drawing on her experiences in Seattle last year, she was happy to be back in a region where there is true passion for the game:
"I'm really excited to be here today, I'm really excited to get this started with the Portland Thorns. the Northwest is a great soccer area and I had firsthand experience with that last year.
So continuing in the Northwest, I'm looking forward to putting that jersey on for the first time under Merritt Paulson and Cindy Parlow, and playing with some teammates that I've played with before and some new ones."
On the broader picture, of a new womens professional league, Morgan was appreciative of the work that had been put in.
"I look forward to starting this league off right and continuing this league in the coming years. I really thank U.S. Soccer for stepping forward, I appreciate their commitment to the league along with the Canadian and Mexican Federations. So I hope this league gets off to the right start and I'm very excited to be part of it, to stay in the U.S. and continue to grow the game here."

A SEXTANT owned by the captain of the first ship to respond to distress calls from the Titanic is being offered at auction.
English auctioneers Henry Aldridge & Son estimates that Sir Arthur Rostron's sextant will fetch £70,000 at the sale next Saturday.
The auctioneer said Rostron acquired the navigational device in 1883, and it has remained in the family ever since. The instrument "would certainly have been the instrument he used to navigate through the ice floes", the auctioneer quoted great-granddaughter Janet Rostron as saying.
Rostron captained his ship as it sailed to the last known location of the Titanic. Arriving two hours after it sank on the night of 14-15 April, 1912, Carpathia managed to rescue 705 people. Two other ships that arrived later found no survivors.
Captain Rostron won wide praise for his efforts to reach the Titanic before she sank and for the rescue of survivors. He was awarded a Congressional Gold Medal by the US Congress, and after the First World War was appointed Knight Commander of the Order of the British Empire.

I haven't figured this out yet . . .
I don't know what the statistics are on this, but I've seen or heard of far too many people who sit their kids down in front of the t.v. for far too many hours of the day. I'm not knocking t.v. because there are a lot of good programs on t.v. these days for children that will help them develop thanks to the pioneering efforts of Sesame Street.
But this post isn't so much about t.v. as it is about reading. That's right, we all remember how to do it, and I'm not talking about reading your Facebook page, or Tweets, or even this blog. I'm talking about books.
When was the last time you picked up a book? If you can't remember it's been too long. Ok, ok, if you want to spend your time watching the boob tube that's your business, but if you're a parent and you can't remember the last time you picked up a book to read to your child, then shame on you. You may be missing out on an opportunity to give your children a lifelong love of reading.
Like all good habits, it's best to start reading to your kids early. Even if they're newborns, do it just to get into the habit. You can get some reading done yourself and babies love the sound of their parents' voices.
If you're fortunate enough to have a good library near you, and your children are old enough, you can take them to storytime (most libraries should offer it). Library storytimes are a great way for children to interact with books and other children their age. But the greatest benefit is helping expose your children to the six early literacy skills that virtually all libraries try to employ during storytimes.
You may not have even realized there were six early literacy skills, but here they are:
– Print Awareness
– Print Motivation
– Letter Knowledge
– Vocabulary
– Narrative Skills
– Phonological Awareness
Some of these are self-explanatory. Obviously by reading books to your children, you're exposing them to words, and therefore, vocabulary. Others, like Print Motivation, may not seem as direct. So I'm going to break them down for you.
Print Awareness is basically understanding what a book is. If you hand a book to a baby, they're likely to eat it, throw it, step on it, wave it around, and maybe hold it. They do that primarily because they're babies and that's what they do with everything, but also because they don't know that there's anything special they're supposed to do with it. When you take the time to sit down, open it up and read it, they will still try to eat it, but they will eventually understand what its purpose is and to follow along on the page with you.
Print Motivation is one skill that many adults lack, that is, liking and being interested in reading. Even if you read to your children, but don't like it, they'll pick up on it. Speeding through the story, reading with a monotone voice, or pausing in the middle of the story to text your homies, are all surefire ways to ensure your children will not enjoy reading. Children are so perceptive and can easily distinguish the difference between genuine interest and a lackluster effort. It's so important to find children's books that you like reading yourself because if you enjoy the story, you'll read with enthusiasm and your kids will get excited about the story too. Also, once children understand what a book is, it's a good idea to let them flip through the pages themselves to encourage this skill.
Letter Knowledge comes into play as your child gets older and has had more familiarity with language where they can begin to understand that there are different letters and that they have specific sounds. ABC books are great for encouraging this, as is singing the alphabet. When your kids start speaking, you can point out that certain words they know begin with specific letters and emphasize the sound that goes with it.
Vocabulary, again, is self-explanatory. Your kids will learn words that they hear every day, but reading can expose them to words that they don't always hear and will help them to learn what those words mean. You can even work on this one without books by speaking clearly and explaining words to your children that they are unfamiliar with, no matter what their age. If you "baby-talk" to your baby, you're only retarding their linguistic development.
Narrative Skills help children to understand sequence. Think about it, even the most mundane day occurs in a sequence; you get up, you eat breakfast, you go to work/school, you eat lunch, etc. The first thing every parent wants to do to make their lives easier is to get their kids on a schedule, and by being exposed to narrative through reading, you're only reinforcing the knowledge that things happen in a sequence.
Phonological Awareness is much like Letter Knowledge, only more advanced in that it involves understanding that words are created by varying sounds. Singing and rhyming are great for encouraging this skill, which is why books like those written by Dr. Seuss, are so valuable.
Sorry for the long post, but reading to my kids is something I really love doing and it's so beneficial to their development, which is what all parents want for their kids. So if you want your kids to love books, put down the remote and pick up a book.
Dude. NEVER apologize for anything you post, especially for length. These are YOUR thoughts, YOUR blog, and YOUR time. If someone reading YOUR entry doesn't like what you say or how you say it, then what are they doing reading in the first place? My point is, I always enjoy reading everything you post, whether it's long or whether it's short, or whether it's mostly just pictures. If something ever bothered me about your blog (which hasn't, and guarantee you, never will) I would stop reading, and that would be that. Be proud of what you say and how you say it. Especially because it's about your children. I am. You know why? You're a top notch writer, full of useful knowledge, and a damn good father and family man. Even if we weren't friends, and I was just some stranger reading something I happened across, like I see some of your followers are, I would still say the same things. So… don't worry about what other people think, homie. Write your ever lovin' heart out.
I learned something! Pictures were perfect for this blog.

I've been keeping a secret from all of all of you.
I don't typically share much about my personal life, but I just had to get it off my chest. Perhaps it will help with "closure".
I had been dating a public figure for the past nine months.
Key word: HAD.
Unfortunately, our relationship recently fizzled. He turned out to be
the BIGGEST TOOL in the box!
In order to sooth the "pain" of my severed relationship, the Food Pervert thought it would be best to drown my sorrows in… What else, FOOD! She is pretty perverted in that department after all.
Fluffy carbohydrates and silky smooth fat are utter perfection when it comes to cheering up those "down in the dumps" feelings, right?
That's why Tara and I decided to make bagels and cream cheese… From scratch!
To hell with all my intolerances and allergies, I am sinking my teeth into sadness slaying refined carbohydrates!
- I wasn't dating a public figure, hell I haven't been in a relationship in: Okay, I'll keep that one a secret – Ha Ha!
- Drowning your sorrows with food is NOT a healthy way to get over an ex.
- We didn't actually make bagels and cream cheese… Check out the latest video for what we ACTUALLY MADE!
Holy (MEAT) Bagels… Batman!! HA! See what I did there??
So how can YOU recreate these mirror images of the real deal? Below is what you need!
- 1.25 Ground Turkey Meat
- 2 Tbs Cilantro
- 1 Tbs Egg Whites (can be omitted)
- 3/4 Tbs Paprika
- 1/2 Tbs Garlic
- 1 Tsp Black Pepper
For the "Cream Cheese":
- 1/4 Head Cauliflower
- 1 Medium Parsnip
- 3 Tbs Chicken or Vegetable Broth
- 1/2 Tbs Garlic
- 1 Tsp Salt
- 1 Tsp Pepper
To Make…
1. Mix the meat, cilantro, egg whites, garlic, paprika and pepper together.
2. Mold into a bagel pan and bake in oven set at 380 degrees for 20 minutes.
3. When meat cooks, steam cauliflower and parsnips (6 minutes). Then blend with chicken broth until smooth.
4. When meat it done, let cool for a minute, then smear the cauliflower and parsnip puree on one "side" and top with the other meat bagel half!
5. You can get pervy too and add extras like bacon, avocado and tomatoes!
- What kind of bagel do you do back flips for?
- Do you think Zac Efron and I would make a cute couple?
- Who do you think the biggest TOOL in Hollywood is?
- Have you ever had a parsnip before? I never had one prior to this creation!
- When you're feeling a little dejected, how do you cheer yourself up?
- Would you eat at Tara and my Meat Bagel shop? What kind of bagel would you order?

Hello fellow preppers and survivalists!
My Name is John I am 30 years old. I enjoy a lot of different things and I have a lot of ideas. I am glad to be a part of this community and look forward to asking questions and maybe help answer a few in return. I am looking for prepping communities in California and new friends who are very much into prepping. I have a Facebook page I just started for the prepping community and people interested in being prepared (its not going to be a meme page either). It will have helpful articles and videos for those interested in prepping. But I will wait to post the link until I receive word from an admin giving me permission to do so. Thank you for taking a few moments to read this.
Stay prepared,

Nothing Ventured, Nothing Gained
Missed Connections in Little Rock
I was with a guy friend, having lunch.
You were our server and I found you to be completely adorable.
I wrote on the ticket when I paid the bill.
I wanted to put my phone number but my pen wasn't working well and I didn't want you to not be able to read it.
Nor did I want to be presumptuous.
I'm a bit old-fashioned when it comes to the dating game.
I know this is such a long-shot, but like my posting title, nothing ventured, nothing gained.
If you read this, and are interested, tell me what I wrote on the receipt.
One Year Ago: Missed Connection in Asheville, NC: To My Beautiful Waitress
Her Two Cents from the Missed Connections Chief Bottle-Finder:
It's been a loooong time since we've featured a missed connection from Little Rock and I thought this would be a good message to re-introduce them. I have a bit of a soft spot for the everyday, almost mundane stories. Who hasn't been in a restaurant, cafe, or bar and had thoughts similar to that of our poet? Regardless of your gender or orientation, "nothing ventured, nothing gained" are good words to keep in mind – if you never ask the question, "No" is the only answer you'll ever get!

Gorilla Trekking in Uganda
Most visitors to Uganda come to track the endangered mountain gorillas in the south west of the country, in either Bwindi Impenetrable Forest or Mgahinga National Park. Less than 700 of these gentle giants exist in the world, with half the remaining population living in Uganda, divided into four habituated gorilla troops: three in Bwindi and one in Mgahinga. Despite their fierce reputation, gorillas are peaceable primates, the largest and most ferocious looking of the ape family, and the chance to view them from up close is a thrilling as well as awe-inspiring experience. You'll need to buy a permit which must be booked long time ahead due to limited availability (only few tourists are taken near the gorillas a day, in order not to disturb them). With a permit in hand, you are allowed 1 hour on very close hand of a group of the highly endangered mountain gorilla in their natural habitat. Permits allow a maximum of six people per group per day and booking is at the UWA Headquarters in Kampala. Uganda Wildlife Authority handles the sale of permits which is costing US$350 each from May 2011.

In most of advanced economies, the word retirement invokes positive images, but in Korea it is most associated with economic hardship, fear and loneliness.
This is the result of a 2011 survey carried out by British bank HSBC of 17,000 people between 30 and 60 in 17 countries.
Many people in Korea work long hours -- 2,100 hours a year on average -- before they retire and have little time to spend with their family. This often leads to feelings of boredom and loneliness once they are no longer working.
