Natural Remedies for Allergies
Allergies can make life miserable, sometimes for an entire season. Natural and effective remedies for relieving all kinds of allergy symptoms—from hay fever to a skin rash—are available in the form of therapeutic gemstones. Users of therapeutic gems report short-term and long-term relief from food allergies; dog and cat allergies; and intolerance to mold, pollen, and environmental toxins. This unique form of energy medicine can ease allergy symptoms and treat their underlying causes, without harmful side effects.

Therapeutic Gemstones for Allergy Relief
Immediate and long-term relief of allergies is possible by wearing the following therapeutic gemstone necklaces:
Blood Tonic
Supports the relief of seasonal allergies by enhancing immune function, and strengthening and balancing your blood.
For any type of allergy and immune reaction, Bloodstone strengthens, calms, and normalizes the immune system so it is less likely to have allergic reactions.
Encourages deep healing and provides energetic nourishment; particularly helpful when allergy symptoms are intense.
Helps any food intolerance, such as a wheat allergy, by resolving the underlying issue and boosting the nourishment you receive from food.
White Beryl
Especially effective when your allergy symptoms indicate lymphatic congestion, such as swollen glands and skin rash.
Supports healing of allergy symptoms that include a skin rash, such as eczema; helps the body replenish moisture where skin is dry or damaged.
Vitalizes the immune system and helps the body detoxify; particularly useful when your allergies are getting worse over time or you are fatigued by seasonal allergies.
Natural Allergy Remedies: An Effective and Long-Lasting Approach to Allergy Reliefby Dr. Ada González
More than half of all Americans now test positive for allergens. Allergies are among the most common complaints I see in my practice as a naturopathic physician. In particular, I've seen a tremendous rise in the number of children, and now even infants, brought in for the treatment of allergies.
An allergy is an excessive inflammatory response to a substance, whether it's pollen, specific foods, animal dander, or certain chemicals. Allergies not only create uncomfortable symptoms; they also reveal problems in the immune system. To recover from allergies and to keep them from coming back, it is important to address underlying issues with the immune system. In my practice, I've seen great results using a unique form of natural medicine—therapeutic gemstones. An easy and effective way to work with gemstones is to wear them around your neck so you can experience their healing benefits on an ongoing basis.
Carnelian Reduced Her Springtime Allergy Symptoms
One gem I recommend often for allergies is Carnelian. Carnelian is particularly vitalizing and nourishing to the immune system. Common allergic reactions are congestion and inflammation. Carnelian's energy can help relieve these unpleasant symptoms. As the immune system reacts repeatedly to pollen, food, or other allergens over days, weeks, or years, the immune system often becomes even more sensitive, and the allergic reaction worsens. Carnelian's vitalizing effect on the immune system helps the body detoxify and reduce oversensitivity.
Carnelian's vitalizing effect on the immune system helps the body detoxify and reduce oversensitivity.
One woman had springtime pollen allergies. Every April, her eyes and throat burned, and she felt flu-like symptoms. One year, she decided to try Carnelian and wore it for the month of April. For the first time in years, she was able to be outdoors and enjoy the beautiful spring, because her allergy symptoms were so greatly reduced.
His Cat Allergies Vanished with Bloodstone
The energy of a therapeutic Bloodstone necklace is soothing and can produce effects quickly. Since an allergy is an immune overreaction, in order to resolve allergies, the immune system must become calmer and react only when it's necessary and healthy to do so. Bloodstone strengthens and normalizes the immune system, so it becomes more alert and responsive to the body's real needs, rather than overreacting.
Bloodstone strengthens and normalizes the immune system, so it becomes more alert and responsive to the body's real needs, rather than overreacting.
I have seen phenomenal responses in people using Bloodstone for allergies. One person commented that within 24 hours of wearing a therapeutic Bloodstone necklace, he went from constant discomfort with his allergies to experiencing no discomfort at all. In another case, a physician tried Bloodstone for his longstanding allergy to cats. After wearing Bloodstone for several months, he realized that the allergy had vanished, and he was pleased to discover that the effect was lasting. Now, even when he is not wearing the Bloodstone and is near a cat, he has no more uncomfortable respiratory symptoms. Bloodstone is a truly remarkable tool.
Emerald floods the body with powerful energetic nourishment, vitality, and healing.
A Potent Combination for Relieving Allergies
Finally, I want to mention Emerald, which focuses specifically on healing the body's organs. Emerald floods the body with powerful energetic nourishment, vitality, and healing. Wearing a necklace of therapeutic Emerald not only improves all functions of the immune system, it also uplifts overall physical health and strength, which is important for healing allergies. Wearing Emerald with Bloodstone can also enhance the Bloodstone's effects. Together, they make a potent therapeutic combination for allergies.
It is wonderful to have something you can do for allergies, with no harmful side effects. The gems I have recommended can take care of symptoms, while addressing the underlying cause of an allergy.
Therapeutic Quality Gemstones
One last note: When using gemstones for health, I recommend using therapeutic quality gems, because they are the only ones that truly produce therapeutic results. I recommend one source of therapeutic gems—Gemisphere.com because their products provide consistent and reliable results.
Enjoy and be healthy!

Hi there,
I'm currently saving to travel in Jan (end of Dec if possible to be away for NYE) to India, and either fly into Delhi or Goa.
I am really keen to book flights but haven't yet done so as I have expected a friend to get involved, but as yet none of my friends are free for the 2 months or so that I plan to spend away, so I am wondering whether anyone else is travelling around India during this time?
I'm a 22 year old recent graduate and this will be part of my so called "gap year"!
I have no itinerary as yet and am open to suggestions. If no one is travelling at the same time, I would love to hear from anyone who has already travelled around India alone or who could tell me how easy it is to meet people. I've travelled around South America and Central America alone so if i hear that it's safe then I won't hesitate to travel alone again but my preference would be to have some company.
So yeah, I look forward to hearing from you!

New Initial Pendant With Loads of Style
We've just introduced a new initial pendant with simple clean lines and loads of style. Each petite Two Initial Square Pierce Pendant is 1/2″ square with the background "pierced" (e.g. cut out) and your two initials set inside the square.
Two very different lettering styles are offered that create two very different looks. The Anna lettering style is very contemporary and a bit funky. The Lucca style is classic and elegant. You choose which style is your match.
The pendant is offered in your choice of our full range of precious metals – sterling silver, 10k yellow and white gold, 14k and 18k yellow, white and rose gold, palladium, and platinum.
The pendant looks great on either a small link chain or just a simple silk cord.
This is a piece that will always be in style and will quickly become a favorite. I put mine on a month ago, and haven't taken it off yet! A wonderful personalized jewlery gift for the special women in your life … including yourself!

Special to the Express-News
ROCKPORT — Debra Fortin straddles the bow of a Carolina Skiff, the lightweight trout rod in her hands bent over like a reed in the wind, the reel slowly surrendering line.
Behind her, a crimson-traced shower of pastel sunlight spatters the surface of Copano Bay. A hundred feet away, a 23-inch trout angrily breaking the water is the only thing making noise.
Capt. Chris Fortin, a Rockport-based guide, assesses a quality speckled trout he caught wade-fishing a wind-protected Copano Bay shoreline.
It seems like a piece of coastal sporting art come to life, a rare and elusive moment. Yet to Debra's husband, Capt. Chris Fortin, it's another day at his home office.
Chris and Debra Fortin live in Holiday Beach, on the eastern shoreline of Copano Bay north of Rockport.
Their choice of real estate is no accident.
A roughly 12-by-6-mile extension of Aransas Bay notched deep inshore with a wind-defying southwest-northeast orientation, Copano Bay is fed by the Aransas, Mission and Copano rivers.
"It's a true 'backwater' bay, one of the best-kept secrets on the Texas coastal fishing scene," Chris Fortin said. "The steady influx of freshwater makes it a prime nursery for most of the highly sought flats species, particularly redfish and trout."
It doesn't hurt that it's closed to commercial shrimping. With shrimp, mullet, shad and blue crabs, Copano's massive forage base supports a huge game-fish population.
It's also blessed with a cornucopia of life-supporting structure, everything from dense and sprawling oyster reefs — that on occasion rise out of open water — to countless grassy sand bars and shallow, mud-bottomed sloughs that intersect its marshy shores.
"A fisherman can almost get overwhelmed by the choices," Chris Fortin said. "And that's a great problem to have. Better yet, it's largely protected water. Even on the windiest days, you can always find a secluded hideout.
"The amazing thing to me is that you can fish day after day and rarely see more than a dozen boats in the course of a trip."
On this evening, we've seen three, all of them from a considerable distance.
Considering the quality and resilience of this place, by all measure there should be many more boaters. Some, however, are intimidated by the many obstructions, visible or otherwise, amid Copano Bay's shallow-water borders.
"I've heard a number of people comment over the years that the bay is scary to navigate," Chris Fortin said. "As good as it is for keeping the fishing pressure down, it's not true. All you have to do is grab a map and look it over. Lap Reef and Copano Reef are the only exposed reefs that can sneak up on you if you're not paying attention to the waves. Nowadays, though, most people use a GPS to navigate obstacles like these."
Not long ago, access presented a challenge to curious fishermen.
However, a new launch ramp at the south end of the Copano Bay Causeway recently opened the door to adventurous newcomers. And the Copano Causeway lighted fishing pier continues to provide an excellent option for anglers without boats.
Fortin's tanned face cracks a broad smile as his wife excitedly battles with a yet-to-be-vanquished fish. She shoots a glance over her shoulder, smiles back at her husband, and simply says, "We live in paradise."
Considering the scene, even an artist couldn't disagree.

How did Emerson mean "A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds" to be understood by the reader?
- print Print
- list Cite
I think that it becomes clear that Emerson is writing in a time period where conformity and the desire for individuals to submerge their own distinctive identity with that of the masses was the norm. As a nation, the young America was experiencing its first sustained period of industrialization and the desire to keep, make, and spend money was becoming something that everyone seemed to embody. America took to industry and business without much in way of resistance. Emerson recognizes this overwhelming homogeneity as solidifying in the newly laid cement of the social setting and for this, the language he holds towards conformity is that of disdain and he wishes to bring this out to the reader. The idea of a "foolish consistency" is meant to illuminate the idea that those who mindlessly embrace a routine without reflection and questioning must be aware of what they are doing. Emerson wishes to cause some type of reaction in the reader of the time period, one in which a spark of change will be ignited in understanding that the reader's life that has been engaged upon without questioning or self- scrutiny is one of a "little mind." The language is direct and forceful, seeking to bring about change and transformation in the individual who Emerson wishes to move away from seeing what is and embracing a sense of what can be.

(Kitco News) - Mon Oct 8—The bears have won the latest battle in the gold market, with a minor bearish reversal day etched on the daily chart at last Friday's close. That signals a short-term top in the gold market and modest correction and or consolidation near term.
A bearish reversal day is a negative chart pattern. It develops when the market scores a new rally high for the recent move, but then settles near the low of the day and it exceeds the previous day's range. That happened on Friday in December Comex gold futures. That pattern unfolded as the bulls attempted to move the market higher, but then the bulls were unable to defend the push to new high territory and the bears swooped in to sell those new highs.
Since mid August, gold prices have surged sharply higher—from the $1592.10 low on August 15 to Friday's high at $1,798.10 per ounce. That is a big move in a fairly short period of time. Additionally, the market is bumping up against strong daily and weekly chart resistance in the $1,800 per ounce range. Finally, the market has been "overbought" technically, and daily momentum tools have turned negative for now.
Add it all up and you have the market in the midst of a minor short-term pullback.
There is strong chart support seen at the September 26 daily low at $1,738.30. The market may not even pull back that far short-term, but if the bears get hungry that is the level they will be targeting.
The long and intermediate term technical trends are up. But, the short-term trend has turned sideways for now, with short-term resistance at the $1,798/1,800.90 zone. Gains through that ceiling will reignite the longer-term bullish trend momentum. The market remains above the 200-day moving average at $1,661. That is a bullish signal.
The gold market may just be in for near term choppy action. Again, strong support at $1,738 should define the bottom of the near term range.

This, my friends, is apparently the "wagon" of "on the wagon." Now, there's a lot of debate about this, so don't quote me on it. One of the possible sources for the term came from the olden times when water wagons (seen below) were used to keep down the dust on the dirt roads. And those who were "on the wagon" were saying that they'd drink the water from the wagon rather than the demon rum. Apparently it wasn't all that great of water, either, not really meant for drinking.
We went on our great tour of Revolutionary War battle sites of Greater New York. About a week ago, we set out from Ohio and drove up to near Buffalo, where there is beautiful and stunning Roycroft Inn. You must go. Especially if you love the Arts and Crafts style, and who doesn't. But be forewarned, the food is horrible even to normal people. And this was my first taste of trying to live in the real world for a moment.
I brought a cooler packed with Whole30-approved wonderful things. I had two beautiful main-dish salads in pyrex and balsamic vinegar, good olive oil, sunbutter, carrots, organic peaches, etc., etc. But I couldn't really bring enough for 5 days on the road. I had a few meals, and then was out there in the world.
I was also trying to be a good sport, a team player, and not an ill and/or weird person, so I had breakfast at the beautiful, lovely breakfast room at the Roycroft. Eggs, sausage, bacon, a latte, and fruit. (No toast! I wasn't that crazy.) I should've known it was stupid, because the eggs (scrambled) gave me an uneasy sense that they might be from a carton, and the meats, well, God only knows what post-industrial stew of MSG and nitrates they came out of. Bottom line, I got a low-grade migraine, nausea and dizziness, which didn't match driving in a rain storm through very curvy, confusing backroads, while also trying to do needlework.
I stopped doing the needlework, obviously, and ultimately asked Ben to let me drive. He was driving like a maniac and reading various maps and phones and GPS's at the same time, which didn't inspire confidence. So after we toured Fort Ontario, I drove much of the way to Montreal.
There, very tired, hungry, and all the remaining food warming in the not-cool cooler, I ate out again. This time it was fish and chips, gluten free mind you! It seemed like that went fine, although by no means Whole30 compliant. I don't know what was in the breading, but something off-road.
The next morning, in this gorgeous place Ben found for us, there was a lovely buffet. I looked past a huge array of cakes and scones and rolls and such. I was trying to be good and I passed on all of it. I just had some ham, turkey, a hard boiled egg, and some fresh fruit. This while surrounded by this incredible collection of modern art– like Warhol, Jim Dine, Jasper Johns and more, all just all over the place, the private collection of the owner.
And again… migraine! I really felt like I was going to vomit in the car, and when we arrived at Fort Chambly, I just tried to sport this wan smile while I greenly admired it. At times I had to sit alone and as quiet as possible, trying to endure a docent who was giving a class in French, other random French speakers, the bright sun and the stirring of the leaves on their blasted trees. Migraine! It must've been the turkey and ham… laced in something? F***ing MSG!!
I don't know. It passed. The fort was starkly beautiful. The kids had a great time. For lunch I just ate carrots and sunbutter in the car, fearing any other step outside my box. But late in the day, after an endless wait at the border (Ben was doing push-ups in the road) and more car-sicky winding roads and stunning beauty, I just felt warn down. I felt like, here I didn't have pancakes or toast or scones or croissants and STILL I felt horrible. Thus, when ice cream came into range I folded. I caved. Ben and the kids were having some. What's the point?? I reasoned. I ate Moose Tracks. I sat with the kids on a picnic table in Nowhere Vermont and left the wagon in the dust.
Then we were at Ben's cousins and I ate chickpeas galore, just because they are vegetarians and we needed a Venn diagram of what we could all eat, although legumes were off the wagon. Bagged tuna, and again the ice cream monster.
After that we stayed at Ben's parents' summer house and overall I did well there. Things were homemade and the danger much lower. The last few days I've been home alone and it's not been pretty. Up at all hours, watching the lowest-low brow comedies possible, and eating willy nilly. Ice cream is my bete noire.
At the moment I feel ill, self-inflicted, and I feel like my foray into the normal world revealed that my reality is I need to live in my little special box. In my special box, everything is organic and mostly homemade. In my special box, beef is grass-fed and eggs are pastured and salmon is wild caught. Vegetables are from a CSA down the road and picked the same day I get them, or even picked by me personally. I live in a very comfortable, beautiful, fortunate sort of box. I don't deny that. But in fact this box, wonderful as it is, is sort of cage. A gilded cage perhaps, but a cage that I cannot leave without consequences. This is what the trip showed me. I can be as careful as I possibly can out in reality and it will not be careful enough. It's a cage that makes it awkward at any one else's house, and dining out only possible with the greatest care. It's a first world problem, God knows! But I just wish I were more… you know… normal.
Also I find that if I get off-road at all, I get crazy. Like turtle sundae crazy. It's like my brain can't handle "maybe" or "sometimes" it only understands yes and no. Like a dog who can either be on the couch or not on the couch, but not "sometimes." I think I have a simple brain. Today one of the Whole30 people posted a great piece about how "moderation in all things" just does not work for some people. Like me. I'm a simple person. I like Will Farrell movies, like Old School. I liked The Dictator by Sacha Baron Cohen and laughed a great deal, even though I could see how stupid it was. I ate a turtle sundae because I was driving by Mitchell's, and that was the only reason.
Now… back on the wagon. I've had my little deviation and found –again– how much worse I feel by like a hundred different measures. Tomorrow, my new day one. Ahoy, wagon! Let me aboard.

I really want to tell her how I feel about herVisitor's Question from a 21-30 year old Male
Ok, I have a small problem. I was going to tell a girl I liked her last week but I found out that she very very recently got a boyfriend. I think I may have waited a bit too long. Is there any way for me to still tell her how I feel? I don't really want to wait for a chance that, let's face it, just may never come again and I really want to tell her how I feel about her. Help!
RomanceClass.com Advice
Why not write her a letter describing your feelings.
Put your phone number and email at the end so she can contact you if she wants to. If you are brave enough tell her in person and see her reaction.
Good luck! George

If the WHEN-VALIDATE-ITEM trigger has an exception handler then the exception has been dealt with there and will not bubble up to the block or form level.

Packs of drivers are slowing traffic on Denver area highways — at times boxing in unknowing motorists — before participants break off and race away at dangerous speeds.
The incidents, including a recent situation involving about 30 vehicles, appear to be on the rise and metro area law enforcement is exploring ways to shut down the racers before someone is injured or killed, said Capt. Jeff Goodwin of the Colorado State Patrol.
A woman southbound on Interstate 25, south of the Denver Tech Center heading to Castle Rock, on Saturday evening was suddenly surrounded by a pack of cars, Goodwin said.
The driver was extremely frightened and felt trapped, she told CSP investigators.
"She couldn't make her way out of that pack or bubble of cars," Goodwin said.
Eventually, she was able to safely exit at Founders Parkway. She later reported the incident to the CSP by e-mail.
Goodwin says the packs of racers slow traffic to let faster-moving traffic ahead of them clear out. Then two or more pack members will break off and gun their vehicles down the now wide-open stretch, hitting speeds in excess of 130 mph.
Since the start of the year, there have been about a dozen such incidents reported in the metro area.
Repeat spots tend to be on I-25 south of the Denver Tech Center; C-470 east of Santa Fe Drive; and Interstate 70 eastbound out of Golden from U.S. 40.
The incidents tend to be organized through social media, including Facebook and Twitter, and are typically announced as a gathering, Goodwin said.
"We've contacted organizers," he said. "They tell us: 'We don't condone street racing. We just organize a group and set up a meeting place.' "
Some members of the race packs monitor police scanner traffic in an attempt to stay ahead of and away from the law, Goodwin said.
Area law enforcement is exchanging notes and information on the incidents, while discussing possible different long-term strategies to stop it.
Officers encourage motorists caught up in a pack to remain calm and gather details on some of the vehicles, especially license plates, if possible. Drivers should pull off to a safe location as soon as possible and call police, either 911 or *277, which connects to the CSP.
Area law enforcement is concerned that the illegal routine could lead to a deadly crash.
Troopers and other area officers have been able to pull over some pack members, writing traffic citations, mostly for reckless driving, careless driving and exhibition of speed.
The prospect of catching peel-away drivers in the act, however, is both troubling and worrisome for law enforcement.
"Now we're getting into a pursuit, what happens in the end if they crash — whose fault it that?" Goodwin said. "That's the hardest part of these street races — it's just so dangerous."

2014 Ford Taurus - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Vehicle2014 Ford Taurus Limited 4dr Sedan (3.5L 6cyl 6A)
Review2.0 Ecoboost I4. Rated at 32 mpg. Car averages 23-25 mpg highway on premium after 8240 miles. I commute 110 mi/day. Driver assist package is the worst. 15 menu clicks to turn on std cruise control instead of adaptive - defaults to adaptive when the car is shut off. Sony stereo sounds tinny, no bass. Many Sync issues. Can't use it on accessory power. It shuts off automatically and sends a message to start the engine if you want to use the system. Phone doesnt connect consistently after paired. This after new update. Only 2/3 of the heated steering wheel is heated, not the top 1/3. Can't use any climate button on console wearing gloves! Exhaust smell in stop/go traffic sucked in by the heater.
Best FeaturesNone really. Poor design and many of the irritating features associated with the driver assist package can't be discerned during standard test drives. Ecoboost 4 cyl drivability OK, but gas mileage is terrible compared to published ratings. Dealer claims recent update should help - nope. 6 speed auto shifts are vague and mushy. I can't rate the car above poor for performance, value, design or fun to drive given the Sync issues' impact on so many functions and the poor fuel economy. Sticker price on this vehicle was $43,070. Paid a little over $40,000. A huge mistake and only time will tell if this becomes a lemon law case. Dealer attempts at correction have failed to produce results.
Worst FeaturesFord should kill Sync and use control buttons that work with gloves, heat the entire steering wheel. All driver assist settings should not default to nanny settings every time the car is shut off. I am loyal to Ford, but really hate this car and feel it is poorly engineered and the quality is abysmal.
Are you the author of this review?Update Your Review
on 01/22/15 06:38 AM (PST)
I purchased my 2014 used, at a steal! Limited 4 cyl with the ecoboost, or turbo what ever you want to call it. I have noticed, since I like to get on the gas that my milage is around 24, but I drive rural back roads a lot where I can get on the gas and swoop around curves, so yeah, I'm having fun with mine and not really caring about the gas mileage that I'm getting. About the heated steering, mine is perfect just below the wood finish which is the correct hand position (back from driver's ed) 10 and 2, also below which I don't use, but I happened to notice one day sitting still, which was around 5 maybe and 7. Which yours may not have that wood on the wheel, but it it's a limited, I would think it does. Also, I have had no problems with my phone sync. Plus even though I'm cold natured, I use the remote start so my car is warm when I get in. I noticed your quality ratings also don't really reflect some of your other ratings either. I agree with some other posters about your validity of posting. I simply love mine and I have had a lot of other makes, including Ford. But, maybe I'm a Ford girl and never really knew it until now!Report it
on 04/28/14 05:26 AM (PDT)
Question the validity of this review, some statements are incorrect related to Sync. I have a 2.0 ecoboost and get 31 on the highway, my wife get 28. A little energy management goes a long way. Who drives with gloves anyway?Report it
on 12/21/14 15:36 PM (PST)
i recently drove a 2014 taurus sel and the 3.5 v6 6 speed automatic performance was above my expectations . its rocks with a 288 hp v6 . the seats were very comfortable and the ride was just south of my 1986 ford crown victoria, which is the most comfortable full size car that ive ever owned, and i still own it . i would recommend this replacement for the crown vic as it is better than anything out there for the price. hope to sign a contract with my local ford dealer soon . byt this car you wont be disappointed.Report it
on 08/02/14 08:44 AM (PDT)
I have a 2015 SLE I it is one of the best cars I have owned do not trust what this person says so not true! Sync is Great,also maybe u should check your manual it's not suppose to heat complete wheel !Report it
on 01/22/14 21:46 PM (PST)
Kidding, right? Mine is the best, quietest, smoothest, most comfortable car I've ever owned or ridden in, bar none! And NO, I DON'T work for ford. I have the 6 cyl SEL.Report it

Today I was confronted with a situation straight out of hentai manga. I was at the laundromat because I'm too cheap to buy a washer and dryer when a slightly older, but attractive in certain lighting, female asked if I had a cigarette to spare. Being the kind Samaritan, I offered her a fag and we had ourselves a long conversation full of the awkward pause and silence that usually accompanies my interaction with women. As it turns out, she was in between jobs; and from the way it looked she was living out of a car. I have no idea why she was at the laundromat, since she didn't seem to have any articles of clothing other than the five jackets, gloves and jeans she was wearing; and she wasn't washing any of them.
Though she never admitted to the bit about living out of a car, what else could I assume since she clearly did not have a place to stay. It was from that conclusion the idea manifested itself in my thoughts: What if I were to invite her to stay the night at my place? I don't live in a mansion, but I have enough floor space to house another living being, so why not a human? In my hentai-deluded fantasies this could mean hot and steamy farm sex:
In reality, it would be more like I'd wake up to find my television, computer, microwave and silverware missing. Then later find out I have AIDS. Still, the possibility that she'd feel obligated to have sex with me was just too much of a tease to back off from. After all, it's not completely clear that she's homeless, or in need of shelter and food in any way. She does have a car, so she must have some money to fill it with gas, correct? Once my clothes dried, I did the only safe thing I could and walked away from the situation. Now, two hours later, this sad decision still eats away at me.

For Lobbyists, the $65 Million List
The growing economic power and commercial markets of China are attracting Washington's government relations and public affairs specialists to help companies do business there.

Moving Again
For the third time in three years we find ourselves moving.
Again we spent a month or more packing everything we own into boxes, culling as we went, so many boxes were filled up.
Cleaning both ends as we go. It's exhausting and so frustrating.
My studio is a work in progress. Moving takes me away from being creative and I have little time to think let alone daydream as I have to make micro decisions every minute.
The removalists knocked down the huge tree in our front yard, covering my car with it's once alive and flourishing branches.
The new place has a great feel. I can see the moon and last night it was particularly beautiful—tiny like a baby's broken finger nail.
The new house stood up to the storm yes it has no leaks and yes we did wake up all night due to the heavy drilling rain in the worst storms Sydney has seen.
So onwards to getting organised and finding the time to paint.

Reusable Glass Bottles
We offer our Organic, Cream-Top Milk in reusable glass bottles
It was the idea from the very beginning to put our family farm's certified Organic, Cream-Top Milk in reusable glass bottles and Straus Family Creamery has been bottling like this since 1994. Each glass bottle has a $2.00 deposit that is refunded when the rinsed bottle is returned to the store. The bottles are then returned to the creamery, washed, sanitized and reused an average of 4-6 times before re-entering the recycling stream. The bottles themselves are made with up to 50% recycled glass.
We are very pleased to see a return rate of more than 80% on our bottles. This is great for the environment because it keeps waste out of landfills. But that's not the only advantage of using glass bottles. We think that milk poured from glass containers simply tastes better than milk that has been stored in plastic or paperboard cartons. The full, rich flavor of our Organic Milk is best preserved in glass.
Our glass bottles feature artwork by Albert Straus' mother Ellen Straus and other local landscape artists. The half-gallon, quart, and pint-sized bottles are quite popular among our customers. Many bottles find new uses as flower vases in restaurants and homes. Our squat shaped, pint-sized bottle is so appealing that wedding planners routinely request them for use as bud vases.

Less than a week after the last lifts were powered down, the slopes of Breckenridge Ski Resort's Peak 7 are turning brown.
The snowpack, which hit a season high in mid-March that was still well below average, is evaporating quickly across Summit County.
The snow that hasn't melted is the driest experts have ever seen.
The snow-water equivalent — a measurement of the moisture contained in the snowpack in inches of water — fell to 29 percent of average in the Blue River Basin on Tuesday — the lowest in 45 years of record-keeping.
The Colorado River Basin also hit a record low last this week, with a snow-water equivalent falling to 21 percent of average. The basin's total snowpack was also at 21 percent of average. Caddie Nath, Summit Daily News

Key Stage 3 covers the first three years of secondary education. Following the English National Curriculum, students will:
An exceptional range of wider learning initiatives, trips, inter-school competitions and extra-curricular activities are organised to support the academic subjects.
In Key Stage 4 (Years 10 and 11), students are prepared for external examinations in IGCSE (International General Certificate of Secondary Education) and GCSE (General Certificate of Secondary Education) courses, which take place at the end of Year 11.
Students will write examinations in the mandatory subjects:-
As well as these mandatory subjects, students will study for and take examinations in a further five subjects from a choice of approximately 30 to complete their GCSE repertoire.
Key Stage 4 is a significant and influential stage of a student's academic journey as students begin to make personal choices about the subjects they wish to study at A Level. Subject teachers, tutors and the Pastoral Team encourage students to explore and discuss the choices and opportunities open to them, whilst taking into consideration their personal strengths and ambitions.
The Key Stage 4 experience also focuses on developing the whole student, in particular, Personal, Social, Health & Economic Education (PSHE) programmes tailored to suit the needs of students at this stage of their life. Professional PSHE experts provide workshops and guidance during our Wider Learning Days to ensure this personal and intangible aspect of education is catered for in a nurturing and supportive environment.
In Sixth Form, also known as Key Stage 5 (KS5), students are prepared for external A Level examinations:-
The A Levels are the academic element of the AQA Baccalaureate (AQA Bacc.)Programme which all KS5 students follow. The AQA Bacc. comprises of four distinct parts in all. The three remaining elements further develop each student in the areas of independent learning and management, citizenship and community involvement and enhance their skills as thinkers, collaborators, researchers and presenters through a wide range of enrichment activities and further study. Please see our AQA Bacc. page for more information.
Our dedicated Sixth Form Centre is a bridge between school and university as it provides our students with individual and shared learning spaces and a place to relax and socialise with their peers, which is separate to the rest of the school.

The creative
Those labels make you so cranky. But you are a bit arty crafty. It might be painting, writing, acting, dancing, singing, even knitting ... you've always had that urge to put things together in an 'interesting' way.
The story teller
You don't take too much for granted, and you're ready to do some research to find out what's really going on behind the news. You're good at telling a tale (in words, images or music) and you'd like to do a bit more with that skill. People work with you because you like hearing their stories as much as you enjoy telling yours. When you get it together, you can make a powerful statement or pitch an issue from a unique perspective.
The Pied Piper
You've got to know a lot of interesting people over the years, and if you rounded them up for a good cause, they could really make some noise. You may have organised events in the past, and you're thinking it could be a good way to get a message out there that needs to be heard.
The star gazer
Some people think you've got your head in the clouds, and it's true that you could be a bit more realistic sometimes. There have been a few times when a bit of planning would have made things run like a new hybrid car rather than a rust-bucket combi van.
The surprise package
So they also might call you vague, flighty, dipsy, flaky or fruity. But you can, and do, work like a juiced-up bee when you're on a roll and the end result can be astonishing. Hey, you might even have a bit of talent there. Don't underestimate your power to communicate, even with those who call you a flake.

Why Waldorf Teaching Is the Greatest Profession
by Henning Kullak-Ublick
Being a teacher not only involves professional and technical knowledge, but imagination and fantasy, unbridled interest in the world, and especially the courage to explore new things together with the children. Only those who love the world can reach children.
April 23, 1919:
The First World War is over and Germany is economically and politically on the rocks. In a Stuttgart factory tobacco bundles are stacked everywhere, from which Waldorf-Astoria brand cigarettes will be rolled. The workers are sitting on the bundles and a speaker calls out to them: "For more than a century, this mantra has echoed through humanity: Freedom, Equality, Fraternity. Much was written in the nineteenth century regarding the sheer incompatibility of these three words. They were right. Why? These concepts were buried by the hypnotic effects of an emerging centralized federal government. Only when these three words, these three impulses: the freedom of the spiritual life, the equality of the democratic state, and the brotherhood of the association of economic life are put in place, only then can they their true meaning be fulfilled."
After the lecture, the workers turn to their boss Emil Molt and ask him to set up a school based upon these principles for their children, so that they would be better prepared for their future. This was how the first Waldorf school came into being. Rudolf Steiner, who gave the lecture, took over the management of the school and developed a revolutionary educational concept that focused on training the teacher's power of observation to replace standardized curricula. It was radical and took into account and valued the developmental capacity of everyone who was in the school, whether a student, teacher or parent.
May 8, 1949:
Three decades have passed since that lecture in the cigarette factory. The Germans are working their way out of the ruination that resulted from the absurd extremes of the "unity" government. The unholy alliance of the Nazi power machine with its radical Darwinistic and racist ideology led to the "total war" against the human being. On May 8, 1949 the Basic Law (similar to a constitution) was adopted by West Germany to prevent anything like the Nazi power structure from ever occurring again. The seventh article guarantees, in deliberate contrast to a government school monopoly, the right of citizens to have independent schools, regardless of their social status and income levels. The door is unlocked to a free spiritual life, and it is up to people themselves to push the door open, but few have become aware of it.
March 23, 2011:
In the Arab World a citizens' movement has arisen overnight. The Japanese are fighting with the forces of nature and an uncontrollable technology. The Earth's axis has shifted and the global financial crisis has severely tested our faith in the hand of economic egoism. 900 million people are connected with Facebook, the first birds are chirping outside and so many people in Germany voted for the Green party in the recent election that all the politicians are rubbing their eyes.
Three vignettes from the past century. The world is changing so quickly that it can make you dizzy. If we educate children today, we do so for a time and a world that we cannot imagine. A simple extrapolation of today's world into the future is misleading. The "knowledge" of humanity doubled between 1800 and 1900. Today "it" doubles in just four years, in the computing world in only six months. By means of modern media we can not only "summon" this "knowledge" whenever we want to, but we are also now connected with the whole world like never before and we also know more about one another than we ever did. With the sheer enormity of all the "knowledge" at our disposal, it loses its meaning. What counts is not just the amount of knowledge, but the relationship that each individual forms with it.
Only if we love the world can we educate.
It is more important than ever to create situations for children and adolescents, in which they can engage wholeheartedly with the world and have truly-saturated encounters with it. For teachers, this includes not only keeping "up-to-date", but above all, working with fantasy, an unbounded interest in the world and the courage to blaze trails together with the children, on which they can discover a new way for the future. We must abandon the idea that teachers are there to fill the children with facts and lifeless knowledge. Being a teacher means masterings the art of relationships, both in relation to each individual child (which can sometimes take time), as well as in the teacher's relationship to the world, through which the children can experience and understand the world. Only those who love the world can educate children.
One of the best experiences that a teacher can have is realizing that that every child becomes a mystery, who learns in her own way to set foot on the earth, to develop ideas and to begin to do something with them.
In the January 2011 issue of The Art of Education Ute Hallaschka wrote that what is new about globalization is the opportunity for humanity to reach an understanding of itself. Every individual is created anew, when she has to ask herself, in a global context, "Who am I and who are you?"
This question, in which the entire world is included in "you", can only be answered by those who have learned to discover the unexpected. What better place to practice this than in a community of people who know each other and undertake this journey of discovery together? This applies not only to a single class, but also to a college of teachers, the parent body, indeed the whole school community. Waldorf Education is a social art; it is about transforming the world through interest in one another.
Henning Kullak-Ublick is a Waldorf teacher in northern Germany and a board member of the Bund der Freien Waldorfschulen.

Does the Rule of Law Still Matter at All in America?
By John W. Lillpop
Alberto Gonzales
United States Attorney General
Washington, D.C.
Dear Attorney General Gonzales:
As one who was born in America to parents here legally, I am extremely proud to be a citizen of the greatest nation in the world.
For all her warts and shortcomings, America is still the most spectacular success story in recorded human history.
Because of my vested interest in America, it is my opinion that preserving the culture, language, and tradition of this marvelous land for future generations should be a top priority for any administration, regardless of political party.
My purpose in writing is to express my concern that the Bush administration, like others before it, has lost sight of the fact that America is great because we operate under the rule of law.
We Americans are no less competitive, disagreeable, or combative than are people in other societies--but we adjudicate our differences within the framework of law.
Unfortunately, it now appears as though our government--including President Bush, Congress, the Department of Justice et al.--have decided not to enforce all laws.
For instance, it is common knowledge that anywhere from 12-30 million illegal aliens are in America. These migrants, mostly from Mexico, cost American taxpayers billions of dollars each year for public services to which illegal aliens are not entitled.
My question, Mr. Attorney General: Why does the Bush administration, including the Department of Justice under your leadership, refuse to enforce America's immigration laws?
Why are illegal aliens not rounded up and returned en masse to Mexico or other country of origin?
How can any government official who has taken a sworn oath to uphold and defend the U.S. Constitution refuse to enforce all laws?
After the events of September 11, 2001, it is truly astounding that America's borders remain unsecured.
Five years after the most deadly attack on American soil and the Bush administration is still unable to control who enters and who leaves this country?
In 1986, the Immigration Reform and Control Act (IRCA) of 1986 was enacted to impede the flow of illegal aliens into America. This law imposed severe sanctions against employers guilty of hiring illegal aliens, and provided for the deportation of those here unlawfully.
How can the United States government blithely ignore IRCA?
Like most Americans, I work hard for far too little money. I pay taxes, stop for little old ladies at crosswalks, and obey the law. Even when most inconvenient to do so.
Perhaps I am the fool for withdrawing money with my ATM card instead of a gun; stopping at red lights that take forever to turn green; paying for food when shoplifting would be quicker and cheaper, and otherwise obeying stupid, boring laws that are nothing more than a danged nuisance?
The question, Mr. Attorney General, is profound: Does the rule of law matter at all in America?
John Lillpop is a recovering liberal.

"I know of no tale that takes the side of the tyrant against the disenfranchised."
-Eric Christian Hogart, modern translator of the Hans Christian Anderson fairy tales.
Yesterday, after family festivities, I went over to Chance's parents to see he and his family on Christmas. I've been friends with Chance for 13 years or so now, and his family is, in some way, sort of like my second family.
During my time there, conversations devolved, as is so often the case, into a strange mix of religion and politics. Nancy, Chance's mom, and I have had some notorious knockdown drag-outs over the years, and it can be maddening to talk to her. She is a very right wing, very religious person. The best way that I can put it is that, during our conversation yesterday, it came out that she thinks Jerry Falwell is a great man with important things to say.
Other high points is when I was told that what I said was wrong and that such statements come from the pits of hell.
But the most interesting part of the conversation, to me, was when Nancy told me that she believes our government (yes, the Bush-led, chosen-by-God government) is oppressing its people, that we will turn our backs on Israel and that will be the beginning of the end, and that it doesn't matter what we do in Iraq, Iran, Syria, or anywhere else, because our country really only has 7-9 years left before it is destroyed.
Now, Nancy is pretty extreme, I admit. But we have these conversations, and they've become more and more difficult over the years because, increasingly, we are speaking two different languages. I don't believe that the majority of Republicans have such fervently religious and simultaneously fatalistic ideas. I am not a church-goer anymore, either, but I'm still fairly dialed in to the tenor of what, especially evangelical, Christians are thinking.
They think, at this moment, God has chosen Bush to be in the White House, and this is their opportunity to push back the barbarians at the gate. The barbarians are not, however, the terrorists or even the Iraqi insurgents, but the homosexuals and the liberals. From their point of view, the liberals have allowed a mass holocaust of the unborn and the rampant decay of morality in society by elitists in academia and media.
And we on the left largely see the single-mindedness of the Religious Right as missing the broader issues. On issues like abortion, life is the catch-phrase, but they are more than willing to support capital punishment. We also fail to see how such concern for life seems to stop when it comes to issues like welfare, with refrains of "why should I give to someone who won't help themselves."
The RR sees a liberal establishment that is attempting to remove all things God from the country. That we view the doctrine of Separation of Church and State as a way to stop the practice of Christianity in this country.
The left sees the RR as attempting to diminish the ability for other religions to practice freely by attempting to impose Christianity into schools, courts, and legislation. I learned on the Chris Matthews Show today that the Left Behind books sold more than 30 times the number of copies what the Bill Clinton blockbuster sold. These books espouse such theories as a day when God opens up the earth and swallows up all those who don't believe into pits of fire and brimstone while the believers are elevated to heaven. The left sees this as exclusive and condemning, lacking the best parts of Christianity that we all strive to live by.
There is this great divide between us, and this election cycle helped crystallize and ferment the resolve of both. But there is a conversation we should be having, and it would require each side to let down their defenses and actually engage, debate, and be critical without shutting down or being offensive.
David Brooks, in his NY Times article today, names several well-written essays of the year. One of them he mentions is William J. Stuntz at Tech Central Station's article "Faculty Clubs and Church Pews" His point is that there is too much similarity between the two sides to just continue in a locked-horns pose, battling in their own little story in which each side believes they are the disenfranchised party, and therefore must be the protagonist.
Churches and universities are the two twenty-first century American enterprises that care most about ideas, about language, and about understanding the world we live in, with all its beauty and ugliness. Nearly all older universities were founded as schools of theology: a telling fact. Another one is this: A large part of what goes on in those church buildings that dot the countryside is education -- people reading hard texts, and trying to sort out what they mean.
There is a place in this world for thoughtful, introspective, engaged people from both sides of the spectrum. You can bring your religion to a national policy conversation without insisting that the doctrine must be the basis of the policy, and you can bring progressive ideals to the table without insisting that any inclusion of religion is a deal-breaker, because, in the end, we are all just people with real ideas about what we, as a nation, do right, do wrong, and could be doing better or differently.
I suppose it is hopelessly naive to think that there can exist some sort of Algonquin setting in which the best and brightest minds of the generation, from both sides, can sit down and discuss the real issues facing the country without having to first put on the record just how much each side deplores the other's lifestyle. But in a country that is so divided by these issues, there is a changing mood that threatens it, and we owe it to ourselves to appeal to each other and have real discussions with real exchanges of ideas.
And each side deserves to be heard.

Seattle Executive VP of Football Operations and head coach Pete Carroll, accessible and enthusiastic in his cooperation with the media covering the Seahawks on a daily basis, has been selected as the 2014 Jack Horrigan Award winner by the Professional Football Writers of America (PFWA).
Carroll, the 41st Horrigan Award winner, is the second member of the Seahawks organization to receive the honor from the PFWA. Former head coach Mike Holmgren won the award in 2008. Carroll is the first head coach to win the Horrigan Award since the New York Jets' Rex Ryan in 2011.
The Horrigan Award is given to the league or club official for his or her qualities and professional style in helping the pro football writers do their job. The award is named for Horrigan, who was a sportswriter for UPI and the Buffalo Evening News, public relations director for the American Football League (1963-66) and vice president of public relations for the Buffalo Bills (1966-73).
Carroll is widely regarded by beat writers as very quotable during his media sessions, and he has been accessible and cooperative with the media since he became Seahawks head coach in 2010. He especially showed those traits during the Seahawks' run to their first Super Bowl title.
"Aside from being accessible and articulate, Pete has a rare grasp of the emotional side of stories," said Dave Boling of the Tacoma News Tribune. "He's never reluctant to recognize the effort, the dedication, the pain and the hardships attendant to an athlete's life. Those tend to be some of his best quotes and give depth and a human dimension to the stories we tell. I was stunned one time after a press conference when he sought me out to elaborate on a question I had asked in a group-interview setting. He didn't feel that he'd adequately answered the question and wanted to clarify and elaborate. It showed me that he's not up there just firing off superficial answers, but actually engaged in the process. And, interestingly, as the Seahawks under Carroll have achieved greater success, he has seemed even more approachable and forthcoming rather than less so."
ABOUT THE PFWA: The Professional Football Writers of America (PFWA) is the official voice of pro football writers, promoting and fighting for access to NFL personnel to best serve the public. The PFWA is made up of accredited writers who cover the NFL and the 32 teams on a daily basis. The Atlanta Journal-Constitution's D. Orlando Ledbetter, who covers the Atlanta Falcons, is the organization's president for 2013-15, while ESPN.com's Jeff Legwold, who covers the Denver Broncos, is the PFWA's first vice-president and long-time national writer Dan Pompei is the organization's second vice-president. Follow the PFWA at ProFootballWriters.org and on Twitter at @PFWAwriters.
