Although breast conservation is therapeutically equivalent to mastectomy for most early-stage breast cancer patients, an increasing number are pursuing mastectomy, which may be followed by breast reconstruction. We sought to evaluate long-term quality of life (QOL) and cosmetic outcomes after different locoregional management approaches, as perceived by patients themselves.
We surveyed women diagnosed with non-metastatic breast cancer from 2005-07, as reported to the Los Angeles and Detroit population-based SEER registries. We received responses from 2290 women approximately 9 months after diagnosis (73% response rate) and from 1536 of these 4 years later. We evaluated QOL and patterns and correlates of satisfaction with cosmetic outcomes overall, and more specifically within the subgroup undergoing mastectomy with reconstruction, using multivariable linear regression.
Of the 1450 patients who responded to both surveys and had not recurred, 963 underwent breast conserving surgery, 263 mastectomy without reconstruction, and 222 mastectomy with reconstruction. Cosmetic satisfaction was similar between those receiving breast conservation and those receiving mastectomy with reconstruction. Among patients receiving mastectomy with reconstruction, reconstruction type and radiation receipt were associated with satisfaction (p<0.001), with an adjusted scaled satisfaction score of 4.7 for patients receiving autologous reconstruction without radiation, 4.4 for patients receiving autologous reconstruction and radiation therapy, 4.1 for patients receiving implant reconstruction without radiation, and 2.8 for patients receiving implant reconstruction and radiation.
Patient-reported cosmetic satisfaction was similar after breast conservation and after mastectomy with reconstruction. In patients undergoing post-mastectomy radiation, use of autologous reconstruction may mitigate radiation's deleterious impact on cosmetic outcomes.

The survey carried out between June 24 to July 7, 2012 in major urban centres and rural areas across Kenya polled 503 respondents to establish the extent to which consumers use mobile phones to boost their shopping experience.
"The mobile phone has become the consumer's constant companion. It is their social interface to the world and also reaches them when they are economically active unlike many other types of media," said Mr Moses Kemibaro, the sales director at InMobi Africa.
The consumer behaviour research revealed that tech savvy Kenyan consumers engage in "searchandising," or use mobile gadgets to enhance their spending.
The study shows that out those polled, 34 per cent were driven to make a buy based on information sourced from mobile phones.
The latest statistics from the Communications Commission of Kenya shows that of the 11.8 million Internet users in Kenya as at the end of March this year, 98.8 per cent access the Web through mobile phones.
Mobile Internet has empowered consumers to search for information from the Web and engage friends on social media to endorse planned purchases.
InMobi says some users save shopping lists in the form of a draft text message and other shoppers track their expenses through mobile money solutions such as m-banking.
Asked what kind of goods and services they searchandise, those surveyed prioritised electronics and appliances, fashion items and luxury goods such as clothing, accessories and jewellery as the most sought- after items.
Others include online assessment of restaurants and bars for restaurants and bars before going out; cars, bicycles and groceries.
The consumer behaviour research revealed that 65 per cent of the shoppers polled said they engage in searchandising in supermarkets; 34 per cent in boutique stores; 31 per cent in shopping malls and only 29 per cent at informal street markets.
"The challenge for consumers in Kenya is that there isn't enough mobile Web content providing price comparisons, product reviews and location-based tools such as maps," said Mr Daryn Smith, the head of marketing at InMobi Africa.
"Targeting potential shoppers with mobile advertising is key for retailers, by offering mobile coupons for example; a retailer could switch a shopper, even if the shopper is in a competitor store at that point in time," said Mr Kemibaro.

The benefits of VPN
It is understood that everybody has heard about VPN. On the other way around, we are sure that not everybody knows about all the functions and good points of the VPN. For all intents and purposes, there is nothing difficult about it but when you set eyes on all its pluses, you can take advantage of it for your work. In such a way, we are eager to name all the opportunities of the VPN.
For what reason youshould use VPN
It is not a new that different people take advantage of VPN for visiting large numbers of banned Internet sites without any troubles. However, it is to emphasize that it has plenty of other merits. Thus, when you do not know about them, pay attention to the following functions:
- In cases when you have a business and are going to provide all the records with the wonderful confidentiality, the VPN will be necessary for your records. For this reason, the owner of the VPN is able to control all the traffic. Therefore, you may also restrict the access to some web pages and to overview all the activities of your staff on the Worldwide Net. To say more, the protection of your e-mail will be 100%.
- On the assumption that you own many offices and came to a decision to unite them, it will be valuable for this purpose. Also, it is simple-to-use and does not require any special knowledge. Consequently, you may make use of VPN and use any websites without regard to your location. For good measure, you will get the access to your archives.
- Differing people utilize VPN for downloading varied programs which are not available in their city. That is why you may download whatever you want wherever you are.
- It is a general knowledge that one of the most popular functionalities is the access to the banned web pages. It is really practical insomuch as you are free to look for everything you need but nobody will get to know that you did it for the reason that you will stay unidentified.
The positive sides of the VPN
- There is the variety of the VPN providers, such as NordVPN, IPVANISH, SAFERVPN and so forth. For this reason, you are able to compare them, overview the comments about them and to pick the best one.
- You are free to utilize VPN both with your PCs and your digital phones. Assuming that you prefer using your mobile devices, you have to pay heed to the fact that in these modern days, there are many gratuitous apps which give you the possibility to make use of it. But on the assumption that you worry about the security of your archival depositories, you can purchase the chargeable apps.
- Having a deal with it, you can get the high speed of connection. It is self-understood that it is useful when you make use of it for your work. For instance, it will prove useful to the video conferences. In addition, using it for work, you will save a great deal of money.
- It is self-understood that in these latter days, there are manyhackers. Various hackers have different purposes but dealing with VPN, you have an opportunity to protect yourself and your data from their attacks wherethrough even if you use the public Wi-Fi you risk becoming a ravine of the data leakage.
Then and there, we can underline that having a deal with the VPN has many merits and does not have demerits at all. Then and there, there is no point in delaying it. In cases when you demand the unconquerable degree of confidentiality, do not waste time and commence having a deal with the VPN.

Sometimes my creative soul takes over my reasonable side and I neglect to use routine to help me find solid ground. I often feel swallowed by the school year. I lose myself in the daily minutia of teaching. My goal, as in the last two years continues to be balance. Who doesn't have that goal, right? It sounds so simple. But, the reality of living it proves to be a deeper challenge.
Now that the first three weeks are over, I really need to try and separate myself from teaching a bit so I can feed the reader and writer within myself. I feel like it is the right time. I was thrilled to have some comments on my blog from my last post! It was kind of a special birthday gift.
Special thanks go to these bloggers who took the time to read and respond to my thinking

Vera Miles is the head of Beauty Mark, a cosmetics company after the elusive secret of eternal youth. Martin Sheen is a scientist with a formula for a miracle cream that will vanquish wrinkles. Although he works for Vera Miles he's trying to sell the formula to Vincent Price, the head of a rival cosmetics firm.
Martin Sheen refers to himself as a 'hairy little teddy bear'. Odd.
Vera Miles offers herself up to Martin Sheen in exchange for the formula. He hasn't written it down. It's in his head. He's pretty mean to her so she kills him by hitting over the head with a heavy telescope.
Columbo appears at 17 minutes and 31 seconds. He has a boiled egg in his pocket. He used to carry a salt shaker too but it appears he's given up this habit.
There's a poison ivy columboid and perhaps an intentional Psycho reference 9or am I reading too much into it?).
Things we learn about Columbo: his wife uses Beauty Mark products, she also uses eyebrow pencil to write her shopping lists, Columbo doesn't like to see pretty young girls smoking, he has a dermatologist nephew at UCLA, his brother in law George just got back from Mexico, he loves family pictures and he took Spanis.

SPIDER-MAN is chasing the creepy Rhino villain. Become a superhero and join his battle…
Superhero's. Kids love them. Adults love them.
What I didn't account for when I reviewed The Ultimate Spider-man game from Megableu is how much daddy monkey would like it.
In fact he liked it so much that the kids were begging him for a shot. However, he kept saying "just a minute". I had to remind him to share, which you don't expect to do with a 21-year-old (ahem….)
Who are Megableu?
If you want to know more about this fabulous company, check out my post from earlier on in the week: Piggin' Boogers.
Essentially they are a French company who make children's toys and games. There toys are original and inventive.
How do you play Spider-man?
This is the fun part. Spider-man sits on a base, when you press start he spins around and projects Rhino onto the walls and ceilings. The projection changes every few seconds, high and low and all around the room.
Your mission should you choose to accept it, is to use the laser gun to make the Rhino disappear. Each time you get a hit it is marked on your laser gun. It is like laser quest in your very own living room!
There are a few different levels too, so when you get comfortable with the first level you can move up to the next.
The person with the most points win, of course that is if you share!
Our Thoughts
You have probably figured out what the hubby thinks of this, he loved it. When the boys eventually got a shot they loved it too. One thing about these megableu games is that they have the ability to create a lot of laughter where the kids are concerned which is a huge bonus as far as I am concerned.
It took a little while to connect the gun to the projections, mainly because we are terrible at reading instructions, but once connected it was easy and fun to use.
A top tip from us is if you have younger kids do it is a small room. The monkeys said it as too difficult to do it in our living room, but took part with ease when we moved into the utility room.
We loved this fabulous game. The boys have it constantly set up in the utility room now, and I know they are playing it because I can hear the giggling!

What is Free Speech Anyway?
by Donna Nahlik, Chestnut Health Systems
With all of the talk in the news and on social media in the past few weeks about Duck Dynasty star Phil Robertson, the phrase "Freedom of Speech" has become a hot topic of debate. Robertson, founder of the company Duck Commander based in Louisiana, was suspended by the A & E Network for controversial comments he made in an interview with GQ magazine. Robertson's supporters were quick to claim the suspension as a violation of his rights to free speech. Social media sites exploded with posts and petitions calling for the network to reinstate Robertson.
All of this can be confusing to teens...who are exposed to the media frenzy...but do not know if or how this matters to them. In actuality, this is an excellent opportunity for parents to talk with our teens about the notion of free speech...and how it really does relate to them.
Please note that the discussion I am suggesting has nothing to do with the content of Phil Robertson's conversation with GQ. That is a conversation best left for each family to have according to your own belief systems. What I am suggesting is something different altogether.
If you ask people to explain what "Freedom of Speech" means, most will say that it gives a person the right to say whatever they want and to voice whatever opinion they have. Is that true?
Well, yes...and no.
At the center of the right to free speech is the notion that the government cannot inhibit a person's right to state their opinion. Nowhere in the first amendment does it say that people should be able to state their opinions without any sort of reaction or consequence. That is what many people seem to misunderstand...teens included.
Our rights to free speech do not include the right to say whatever we want without any reprisal at all. Employers have the right to expect that their employees are going to adhere to company policies and standards for behavior and verbal expression. In fact, many companies have explicit rules about what employees can and cannot say...especially in the media.
Teens need to understand that this concept extends to them as well. They have the right to express their opinions. In fact, teens are often especially passionate about the things they believe in and are quick to post or tweet about controversial issues. What they need to understand...and this is where parents can help them...is that once their opinion is out there in social media or in print, it is part of how they are perceived by others. Colleges and potential employers have access to the things that we post on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter and that could impact decisions they make regarding admission to college or extension of job offers.
I am not saying that we should all completely avoid expressing our opinions in print or on social media. It is important to share your ideas and opinions in a thoughtful and respectful way. It is also important though, to remember that if we speak about another group of people in a way that is going to incite hurt feelings or anger, then the people we spoke about may respond. Remember...they have the right to free speech as well.
Talk to your teens about their posts on social media. Make sure they understand the importance of really thinking about issues before putting something out there for others to read. Encourage them to research topics before coming to "snap judgments". Be respectful if their opinions do not agree with yours. Help them understand that disagreeing with a family rule is fine, but that people can't ignore or break rules without penalty just because they disagree.
Most of all help your teens to "get" that...yes...they have a right to express their opinions. What comes with that right is the reality that once their opinion is "out there" for all to see, they better be ready to back it up, own it, and accept that not everyone will agree.

Wow. We talked about a woman being so big that technicians considered the possibility of having her MRI done at the zoo. Now we have a prisoner that's so fat that he had to be brought to court in a rental truck. Get this. He was arraigned on the loading dock. My question is if stephen Turo hasn't left the house in years, how did he deal drugs?

NEW YORK � When Meghan Faux, a lawyer and foreclosure counselor in New York, calls JPMorgan Chase & Co. to help a homeowner modify a mortgage, she expects the runaround from representatives unwilling or unable to answer basic questions about the borrower�s case.
She�s more hopeful calling Wells Fargo & Co., which like Chase is one of the three largest mortgage servicers along with Bank of America Corp.
�There�s still a long way to go there,� Faux said of Wells Fargo. �But they are at least responsive to our concerns.�
All mortgage servicers � which collect monthly payments, deal with delinquent homeowners and negotiate loan modifications � have come under a harsh spotlight in recent weeks over their foreclosure paperwork. But the available data suggest a wide variation in how well the firms do their jobs.
A number of federal and state agencies are investigating the servicers� foreclosure practices. Housing and Urban Development Secretary Shaun Donovan said last week there were �significant differences� among the companies but declined to elaborate.
Faux�s experience at South Brooklyn Legal Services is borne out by the Better Business Bureau, which gives Wells Fargo�s mortgage servicing operation an �A� grade and Chase�s an �F.�
And of the calls about Chase to the Treasury Department�s foreclosure help line through August, 7.2 percent were complaints, the second-highest percentage among the eight largest servicers. San Francisco-based Wells Fargo had the lowest proportion of complaints, 3.7 percent.
J.D. Power & Associates recently gave Wells Fargo the highest rating among large servicers. Chase came in near the middle.
Chase spokesman Tom Kelly declined to comment on the ratings or the Treasury data, except to say the company had �offered struggling borrowers more than 975,000 modifications since the start of last year.�
Bank of America, which became the largest mortgage servicer after buying home-loan giant Countrywide Financial in Calabasas, Calif., two years ago, gets mixed reviews.
The bank�s servicing unit has an �A� grade from the Better Business Bureau but doesn�t fare as well with J.D. Power or the Treasury�s help-line stats.
Among the 4,327 complaints about Bank of America received by the Better Business Bureau in the past three years, one recent submission points to the frustrations many homeowners are experiencing with servicers.
On Aug. 31, a customer wrote that he called Bank of America five times after receiving a default notice and was directed to five different representatives, none of whom picked up the phone or called him back.
Meanwhile, the homeowner said, his monthly payments were jacked up, with no explanation, to $947 from $680.
�I don�t want to lose the home I grew up in because Bank of America is playing games,� the borrower wrote.
Bank of America told the Better Business Bureau it would resolve the problem, but when the bureau checked with the customer Oct. 8, little had changed, the bureau reported.
�I�m getting nowhere,� the customer wrote. �I need help!�
Bank of America spokesman Richard Simon said the bank �recognized past inadequacies and disappointments in our service levels� and had made �many changes leading to tremendous strides.�
The variation in the ratings of servicers reflects in part their different customer bases.
For example, companies that specialize in handling certain types of mortgages, such as subprime loans, that have had high default rates are more likely to have unhappy borrowers.
One example is OneWest Bank in Pasadena, Calif., which bought the remains of failed IndyMac Bank, including its many mortgages issued without proof of the borrower�s income.
In the past, homeowners might not have cared who handled their loans.
But borrowers are coming to realize that servicers aren�t all the same, even if their impressions are based on their last bad experience, said Jim Svinth, executive vice president at mortgage banking firm LoanDepot.com in Irvine, Calif.
Svinth recalled, �One of the loan processors told me the other day, �The buyer is in tears. The reason they refinanced was to get away from that same bank.� �

text: I was in Hungary for about a week. Again, another great cultural experience. I was put in touch with some relatives that live there, whom I had never met, and they treated me like a king. I tried home-made traditional foods, local liquors and home made wine, and I was chauffered through all of it. Thanks again Tamas! And thanks to the family in Putnok. Budapest is beautiful and the Aggtellek caves are not to be missed, they are like another world. I would have liked to have spent more time in Hungary, and I probably will some day.Read More

Every generation picks people to play the role of hero while they travel from the innocence of childhood into the reality of the adult world. Similar to all generations, young people tend to look for heroes who will give a voice to the feelings they have about the future world they are facing.
While many of these heroes will prove to be mere fluff and blow away, others will actually attain sustainability by changing the direction of lives. In the early sixties, Bob Dylan plays this role as does Timothy Leary a few years later, but one of the most influential heroes of the baby boomer generation is Marshall McLuhan.
McLuhan who is a Canadian philosopher of communication theory is thinking, teaching, and writing in the world of academia well before the sixties arrive. However, it is during this decade that the enormous wave of baby boomers latch on to many of his ideas, adopting some of his expressions, and concepts.
Around this period several of McLuhan's expressions enter into English, and maintain an active position to this day: the global village and the medium is the message are only two. (He also predicts the world wide web thirty years before it begins.) His influence on the English Language alone, places him in the position of a very influential person of at least a couple of generations, and quite possibly several others. It isn't too strenuous a stretch of the imagination to consider that Marshall McLuhan is in the company Freud, Einstein, and a select few modern thinkers.
Remember, during the twentieth century there are many major changes to the way all people communicate. Telephones, radios, films, televisions, and recorded music all evolve from expensive novelty status to necessary additions in our daily lives. So, McLuhan's ability to make sense of these changes elects him as an ideal candidate for the position of hero.
In 1964, he publishes Understanding Media: The Extensions of Man. In it he labels media as either hot or cool . He creates these terms to describe the viewers interaction with a particular media. For example, movies are a hot media because they enhance a single sense (in this case vision) however, television is cool because it requires more effort on the part of the viewer's imagination to fill in the blanks of the story. Consequently, ideas like his have a huge impact on academics, public intellectuals, as well as film makers.
One of the people McLuhan influences is film maker Haskell Wexler, who writes, and directs the film Medium Cool (the title evolved from McLuhan's ideas in the book mentioned above). The setting of the story is Chicago, during the 1968 National Democratic Party Convention, and blends both fiction with non-fiction. In 1968, this a new approach to storytelling through movies, and it grabs the attention of both the public as well as the News industry. It is one of the first films to openly question the responsibilities of television and its newscasts. By 1970, it is rated R, and is criticized for its use of nudity, but many feel the rating is more likely a result of the criticisms it levels at the news media.
So, how does Paul Butterfield fit into this lineage? As it turns out, Haskell Wexler hires the counter culture guitar hero Michael Bloomfield to organize the soundtrack. Bloomfield also happens to be Wexler's cousin, but it is doubtful his involvement is a product of nepotism, but rather a choice by Wexler to hire an excellent musician. However, the fact that in 1968 Mike Bloomfield is a national hero of the counter culture doesn't hurt either. There is a probably that Bloomfield includes Paul Butterfield because by 1968 he too is a national hero of the counter culture movement, in addition to being an excellent musician.
The soundtrack does not seem to be available for purchase separate from the film, this may change as Medium Cool has been recently re-released, so these two tracks featuring Bloomfield and Butterfield have been copied from the film. (There are other artists on the soundtrack of the film too, including, a very young Frank Zappa and the Mothers of Invention as well as Love.

Love on Hubpages
One of the things for which I have come to be grateful to Hubpages, is the opportunity to meet so many different NICE people from different backgrounds who force one to raise one's appreciation of our species. I have met here so many intelligent, kind, talented and wonderful people whose behaviour and ideas have forced me to raise my appreciation of our common humanity and increased my hope for the future.
To the inevitable and innumerable merchants may I just mention in passing that though there is not an ounce of conceit in our composition, the De Greeks generally wear size 8 hats and this is necessary to accommodate their huge brains? In fact a Spartan helmet found in an ancestor's tomb recently, had the number 8¼ clearly stamped on the inside rim. So when you become fans and out of courtesy we visit your site in reciprocity, headings like "How to Buy Used Tin Cans" tend to stump us. We look for something that will allow us to comment genuinely and impartially. If we do not find anything, which is often, we quietly move on without making a comment. If we do find something that is in any way acceptable, we try to make a courteous comment as a gesture of reciprocal appreciation for your trouble to visit us and become "fans". However, we know that the true merchants will rarely if ever make the effort to visit us again. They have left their advertising leaflet on our site and they are on the way to pastures new.
But the behaviour of the merchants makes the kind and supportive behaviour of the genuine people so much more powerful and so much more appreciated.
Gypsy Willow and Lee B. with their kindness, lisadpreston and sunflowerbucky with their enthusiasm, Zsuzsy Bee with her knowledge, _cheryl_ with her surprise that she found something she liked, the gifted Nellieanna with her intelligence and her modesty, Feline Prophet with her deep knowledge, ladyjane1 with her eloquence, Joy At Home with her many skills, JamaGenee with her enviable subtle humour, habee with her flattery, IzzyM taking time off her business to offer support, akirchner with her humour, the more recent msorensson. Shalini Kagal with her ability to see the most carefully disguised humour, and others who are more recent and might be embarrassed with my emotional Mediterranean reaction until they get to know me better.
I have deliberately left the men out of this, because this is a story of Love on Hubpages and I value their friendship too much to risk it by including them in this list, even as a joke.
Because I like to read and because I search Hubpages for stories to read which will give me pleasure, I was recently rewarded by coming across the site of Pam Roberson. Her last story, uploaded 13 moths earlier, was titled "Seduction in a Construction Zone" and had me in stitches through her brilliant use of the language.
"he began to undress my car with his eyes. Very slowly, he peeled away every inch of the vehicle until there was nothing left but me and a steering wheel".
I howled with laughter. I left her a message of admiration and one thing led to another and we are now married.
There are times when even the De Greeks cannot think deeply without having a headache and so in the excitement inseparable from the process of getting married in such a hasty manner, I had unfortunately forgotten to tell my wife and that is where the matter became slightly complicated.
However, I think that I had better let Pam Roberson tell you the facts, here.
I would very much appreciate it if you will leave your comments here about your thoughts on this marriage and any new marriage proposals shall be gratefully received.
Dimitris Mita
De Greek
My thanks to:
Cris A http://hubpages.com/hub/Our-man-De-Greek-confesses
Roman Trend http://hubpages.com/hub/De-Greek-on-HubPages-A-Tribute
Excellent and beautiful hub , really I have met very interesting people on Hubpages. Thank you for your article.Gretings from Greece.
I'll have to talk to sis but I think we could definitely work that out. We are family at Hubpages after all. :) :)
Lovely hub De Greek. Some of us missed the nuptuals so I think a after wedding party is in order. Just a hint: My sister(HealingTouch) and I sing for weddings or party's. Just saying, let's keep it in the hub family:)
Ahhh... how kind :-)
Delightful insights on delightful people. A nice read for mid afternoon. Thanks for doing what you do so well and never a boring or predictable moment!
you always write such entertaing hubs and the comments that you have left on some of my questions is wonderful as well.
Great post
First, Petra, YOU are my coffee now! You've captured my attention and my heart, and I thank you for the kindest words I've heard. I'm honestly humbled, and I thank De Greek for introducing me to you. :)
De Greek! I cannot believe that such a man of steel would relent so easily! This is very telling!! Not that I want to see a brawl or anything...I'm just saying...I cannot say...my heart...I feel such drama filling my heart and soul!
Christoph! My adorable adorishish one! YES, the key to my heart is rather large, and I hope it hasn't been too cumbersome for you to carry. Thank you for keeping it so shiny. :)
I think not. I alone possess the key to her heart.
I read and expressed my hate...un, displeasure on Pam's hub earlier today. Once again, Sir, you have taken a position that rightly belongs to me. I made my displeasure known in no uncertain terms to Ms. Adorable - yes, that is what I call her in our intimate moments - and I'm sure she will act accordingly.
So the Greek Lover will chicken out now? You have seduced Pam and you are just about ready to abandon her before the honeymoon is even over?
Why am I not all that surprised? It may have something to do with the Mediterranean clear waters and the reflection of a self adoring soul (LOL big time)
Dear Greek,
I can't thank you enough for introducing Pam to me. Now she is competing with you for my favorite hubber and I am having a "hard" time deciding who am I to read first thing in the morning. It is like choosing coffee over cigarettes, (an impossible choice for my vicious and tormented soul). I have to have them both, just like I have to have you and Pam in not specific order, since good things (or not so good) always come in pairs.
You and Pam are the golden pair of Hub Pages and I love you both to pieces!
You are guys are funny, funny, funny........ :)
So how is the honeymoon going so far.....??
And have you considered asking the wife to join Hubpages..?
The pretty, blonde, lawyer one I mean.
Always a true pleasure not only to read your HUB, but all the wonderful comments.
Oh, c'mon, don't say THAT! You'll break my little pea-pickin' heart! (GA vernacular)
De Greek, I just now saw the comment in which you mentioned me! I'm honored, you silver-tongued devil! lol
DG, WE are the fortunate ones in that YOU found your way to HubPages to entertain and beguile us. ;D
Perhaps I am confused (btw, I don't appreciate you suggesting I'm a confused simpleton in public!), but I could have sworn the man said you ordered one of me for yourself to have on hand for the very purpose you just mentioned. Hmmm. Are you sure you're not confused? Who else would have gotten the numbers reversed? Of course there was that British sailor last week I assisted with directions...perhaps he was dyslexic too?
Oh well! I will await the correct shipment with great anticipation although I'm sure we won't have any arguments!
OH! Well that explains so much! I was contacted this morning by a rather rude gentleman from your country exclaiming that they don't make inflatables in my size. I beg you, sweet muffin, tell this gentleman that my measurements are NOT 63, 62, 63!
@FP, I know you mean no harm, but your fancy words hurt my brain. Now I must go look up the meaning of "farcical." ;)
LOL...this is unfolding like a movie! Complete with melodrama and other farcical moments! :D
Alright, I'll save the melodrama for our more private moments then. What I won't do for you. Yes, I received the lovely blow-up picture of you! How thoughtful of you to have it done in cardboard so that it can stand in such a commanding fashion in a room. It was a bit difficult to get it into the house though--it's so large, and the ceilings aren't quite high enough, but I'm taking care of that. :)
I do hope you've received the DVD I sent you of me singing karaoke at Cousin Boogie's Bar and Grill. What a night that was, and it was my pleasure to sing our special song in Joan Jett fashion. Please try to look past the fact that I nearly choked on a rose as I tried to blow it seductively out of my mouth. Oh, and don't worry about all the chicken wings that are getting thrown in my direction--that's a good thing! Um, and the guy who's dancing with me while I'm singing...the one who appears to be smacking my bottom...he's a special effects dancer and back-up singer. I think you'll love the whole thing! :)
Oh my word! I came in here to speak sweet nothings to my Adonis of love before turning in to bed and I find a harem of women at his feet! Not only that, he's calling them "Love" and saying he has room for more!
Oh my heart! Oh my weak, weak, heart! Be still my heaving bossom! My tears flow like a muddy river on a dark, dark night because my eyes are caked with makeup! What shall I ever doooooo??!!
Darling? Can you wear that interesting Croatian helmet that Tatjana mentioned when I Skype you for the honeymoon? Wouldn't that be fun? I'll dress up too. :)
Okay, I have to go to sleep now!
So another comedian on HubPages. LOL, great stuff!
Dude: "However, we know that the true merchants will rarely if ever make the effort to visit us again. They have left their advertising leaflet on our site and they are on the way to pastures new."
THat is an F-ing truism if I ever read one. Really, really well put, man. I know that's not the point, but that just stood out as well written.
You know that hub of Pam Roberson's was awesome. I was compelled to write a spoof of it I was so moved, so I totally get why you picked it too. It's good stuff. Speaking of which, hmm, maybe I should spoof this one! Muahahaha!
De Greek, I think you've become the biggest heart-throb on HP!!
I understand you! I have long been trying to find the perfect hub mate. I had a hasty hubmarriage, but he started writing Latin, and that got me lost in the translation. I have nothing against Latin, it's just that I so prefer stories to dictionaries, and told him so. I am clicking back and forth, story to story, yours, Pam's, yours... I am hooked on this marriage, and will live vicariously through your marital success.
Ah my DG. How jealous I am! Now that you are officially a bigamist (or at least a cyber-bigamist) know that I am forever waiting in the wings, panting with fragrant breath for the happy hour when you decide to add another flower to your harem. I have, of course, faithfully obeyed your command and have read the other woman's hub.
Knowing that you are a man of impeccable taste and great refinement I had to check out you new bride. To say that is a match made in Haven will only begin to tell the story. The interesting part will be however the enforcement of your previous marital contract and the lawyering skills of the one that unexpectedly became "the other woman". Keep us posted
DG what can I say, every age is attracted to your magnetism. Picasso didn't seem to have a problem, one has to put age into perspective. You are an artist of words, you will figure it out. hah.
DG you make every greek male proud, knowing that their fellow country man has two wives, can't wait to hear about your first fight being a married couple, it should be a riot and god forbid there should ever be a divorce, they will crush any hub I have written on the subject, hah.
You are so blessed I love your gods already. So much so I'm seriously contemplating changing religions. :D
Great! Love your writing, you really know how to make people smile! FP directed me to Pam's hub too. Add me to your legion of fans!!
Pam's hub is so funny! De Greek you're a muse. Greek mythology is now being reimagined to include you. You really bring out the best in other writers (especially female writers!)
Thank you so much for the link!
I new you were a playboy! I always wonder what I will read next. Today a wedding. I will go read her hub too.How many hearts have you broken today? I hope you have gotten your wives some seven day bracelets.It will be easier to keep track. May you have many happy years together.
Oh, what else can I add, De Greek? lol..
Oh, may I ask something? What it does it feel like to be adored by sooo many women?
Pray do tell....I await your answer with enthusiasm ;-D
Wow, so many hubbers are co-conspiring, er I mean co-writing lately! It is truly inspring! Well, you just convinced me to fan Ms. Roberson as her hub about your recent marriage had me smiling from ear to ear! I love it!
Hope you have enough money to support two wives especially with your inclination to spend lots of money on furs and bags he he. Thanks for the mention Im sure I don't deserve your praise. Happy honeymoon, cheers.
You're perfect together! It's so cute! Better than a Harlequin Romance! But let's hope the "Honey do's" don't set in too swiftly.
I did read Pam's delightful hub! I love her enthusiasm!!
There must be something about you - there just has to be - and I'm not talking about the Size 8 hat. You did manage to get Pam writing on HP again :)
Your harem is admirable, De Greek. Any man would happily give 5 goats and, perhaps, 3 pink piglets for such a glorious array of womanhood!
Well done!
Well I feel pretty jilted, You say you love my angelic smile yet you propose to another. I am unpacking my trouseau as I write. (There wasn't much in it and silk doesn't take up much space anyway) I have also canceled my bus ticket from Heathrow. Rats!!!
DG, isn't your head swollen...er...big enough already? Size 8, right? You don't need any more hubs singing your praises. I suggest you concentrate on keeping peace between the wives. :D
Do you want to buy some old Croatian helmet, the link is http://Cro-helmets.... LOL.
Boy, has she gotten her claws into you already! But I'm hurrying over to her site now to check the story out. I will leave a comment there so you don't get any more shit!
Love and peace
You! I adore you!
Is your wife okay with me being a wife? Tell her I don't cook or do windows. Okay? I promise to not take up too much of your time, but I'm getting impatient over the whole honeymoon thing. Also, you two need to work out details about my monthly support. You have discussed that right? ;)
Thank you! :)
God moves in mysterious ways, his wonders to perform. More power to both Pam Roberson and you. Hearty congratulations.
No - I'm not going to propose to you! I've got two wives already and they are more than enough!
Thanks for the laugh and for spreading Hublove around a little. Getting quite promiscuous this place, isn't it?
Love and peace
Hats off to you for your wonderful wit-I like it .
You've done it again! How do you manage to get so many odes written about you, DG? Must be that size 8 head! :D
Congratulations on the hasty nuptials anyway...may you be the father of a thousand kids! (That's an ancient Indian blessing by the way....so fitting, don't you think, for one who can trace his origins back to the Spartans? :D)

There is a new coded message from Cobra for the Resistance Movement.
In one of the comments below this post on Cobra's blog, someone also wrote that "Topaz is one of the twelve breastplate stones of the High Priest referred to in the Book of Exodus. The breastplate stones are considered sacred to twelve mighty angels who guard the gates to Paradise."
I have a quick look at what Topaz could mean and found on Wikipedia that it is a name of a gemstone
"An English superstition held that topaz cured lunacy". However, I am not sure if it is related to this operation.

Three Westman communities are asking the region at large "What's the Big Idea?" The question, which also serves as the title for the third annual entrepreneurship event, is one they hope will be met with some enthusiastic and imaginative responses on Thursday, October 19 at the Carberry Memorial Hall.
The event began in 2015 when the economic development offices in Minnedosa and Neepawa partnered to spur grassroots business development for their towns. Opening with a format similar to a science fair, the aspiring merchants put their ideas on display to an audience of industry support agencies, financiers, and the general public. Later, those participants would make a formal presentation in the "Pitch Parlour" for a chance at prize money to help launch their business.
The concept has proven to be a great success. The first year's event helped to launch the Inspire Studio of Fine Art in Minnedosa, 4U Home Décor and Consulting in Neepawa and an MTZ tractor dealership in Rapid City. In 2016, the event kickstarted Valley Art Therapy and Associates in Minnedosa, the Queens Eatery in Rapid City, and Avion Harvest in Eden. Another of the winners from last year's event, 16 year-old Kennedy Baker won for her Ken's Kustom Kicks – a hand-painted footwear line, that has just recently announced a contract with the Winnipeg Jets which will see her product on their shelves in September.
"Winning at 'What's the Big Idea?' in 2015 was the push that I needed to open my gallery," says Marlies Soltys, the proprietor of the Inspire Studio in Minnedosa. "Sure, the prize money was good, but more importantly was the acknowledgment from someone outside my social circle that the idea had merit. Knowing I had that support from the local community development office really gave me the confidence to proceed and I'm so happy with what we have been able to create."
This year's event has expanded in scope and will include not only Minnedosa and Neepawa (and surrounding municipalities, plus Rapid City), but also the Town of Carberry and the Municipality of North Cypress-Langford. Organizers are hoping to continue to build the momentum that they have experienced to date and reach out to an even wider audience of aspiring local business leaders.
"One great thing about the event is that we really get to see what ignites the passion of people," says Marilyn Crewe, Neepawa EDO. "The pitches that we see bring forward ideas that we might not have thought about for our communities, but they are fueled with an enthusiasm that has generated new energy in our business districts. We can't wait to see what ideas will be presented this year."
In addition to event support from Community Futures Westman and the Business Development Bank of Canada, participants compete for prize money in a variety of categories. While some awards are specific to the locality of the proposed enterprise, other award categories allow for the best ideas to qualify in multiple prize pools. In previous years, some pitches emerged with the judge's verdict in as many as three categories.
For Carberry's EDO, Tricia Zander, she hopes that this collaboration helps to inspire the imagination of entrepreneurs in her community.
"We really need to see what vision our young people (and young at heart) have for the future of our business district," says Zander. "For long-time residents, they might see a vacant store front and they can't imagine what's possible for that space besides what was there before. The ideas that come forward from our emerging business people could shape what downtown looks like for the next generation. That's really exciting."
Those looking to make a pitch and compete for prize money to launch their new business can register for free through their local community development office in Minnedosa (email@example.com), Neepawa (email@example.com), or Carberry (email@example.com)

The principal in a moment of weakness agrees to give Tom one last chance. "If I have five peaches in my left hand and five peaches in my right hand, Tom, how many peaches do I have?" he asked. Tom thought long and hard and then said: "ten." And the entire senior class stood up and shouted. "Give Tom another chance. Give Tom another chance!"
