Weather Forecast April 21 - 26
Summary (as of 4/23)
The atmosphere is forecasted to be ripe for the potential to produce severe weather beginning Saturday afternoon. The silver lining is that there will be a strong CAP (inhibitor of severe weather) in the low levels of the atmosphere Saturday. Although, all other "severe weather ingredients" will to be in place. If the CAP is 'broken' then we will most likely see some severe storms. CAP looks to be weakening just before sunset on Saturday. This means severe storms could pop up around 7:30pm-8:00pm Saturday evening. I would prepare and expect lightning in the area Saturday evening. We will be sending you alerts of any inclement weather activity.
Time frame for the possible development of these storms will be in the 4PM - 9PM time frame. We'll keep you posted. Do not hesitate to reach out to us with any questions: 469.546.5082

I don't know that my children would agree — and I am not consulting them to find out — but high on the list of favorite read-aloud books in the house where I was the Mommy is The Runaway Bunny. As a mother, as a pillow to the warm small nestling body, as reader aloud and silent, that book satisfied. The rhythmic prose, the colorful illustrations, the balanced structure of the story, all of those contributed to our pleasure. For myself, also, there was the thought-provoking content of the book — the mother bunny who was so reassuringly always present, or was it smotheringly always present? or merely inescapably? Was I oversensitive to feel a kind of chill when I read the mother bunny's promise, "I will be the wind and I will blow you where I want you to go"? Was I over-identifying with the child beside me in her/his longing to escape that overflowing, overwhelming Mother? The question the book raises is: What about love?
There are no answers offered, unless in the final line of the story, after the little bunny has remarked, "Shucks. I might as well stay here and be your little bunny." The mother responds — lovingly, patiently, wisely, victoriously, smugly, above all enigmatically: "Have a carrot."
Have a carrot, I say to my children, and they understand everything I mean. I mean, everything, including love. Whatever else it might have meant, to our children, to their parents, that line constitutes a family chord. It plays us together, and that is one of the answers about love, isn't it?
From the March/April 1997 issue of The Horn Book Magazine.

Escape the oppression of the rolling luggage cart!
About two years ago, I spent a lot of time living out of a backpack. My original Minimalist One-Bag travel list was a great proof of concept; most people carry way too much stuff when they fly.
I'm headed to Israel in a few days, and then Iceland soon after. In fact, I think I'll be spending almost the entire summer living out of a backpack, or on my bike. It's a great opportunity to re-assess what I really need to carry to be happy. Who knows- maybe this list can help you get your pack weight down below 15 pounds for stress-free, carry-on friendly travel this summer. If anything else, it's a good primer for travel gear that saves weight and keeps you focused on the experience.
The Backpack
For this trip, I'm using the Inside Line Equipment Flaptop. This has been my everyday bag for months, and I know from experience that it's waterproof, durable, and comfortable. If you're a regular reader, you know my original ILE Default bag was absolutely beat to hell, and it never gave up the ghost, so I am certain beyond a shadow of a doubt that I can count on this bag, without worrying about a ripped strap or a leak. I'll be testing the limits of this bag's durability this year, which Eric provided knowing how hard I am on equipment. Stay tuned for the long-term review.
The Flaptop is about 32 liters, though I'd guess I'm using about 20. So, what's in my bag?
I. Clothing
I don't own a lot of clothing. My philosophy is that a few high-quality items are a better alternative to a constant supply of cheap T-shirts and jeans. Nothing on this list is more expensive than its worth, but I am picking a few quality items for this trip. If you're a fan of $5.00 T-shirt packs from Wal-Mart, skip this section.
Everything I've selected travels well, is wrinkle-resistant, odor-resistant, durable, and simple-looking. It's not in anyone's favor to stand out with expensive looking stuff. I look dressy enough to attend dinners, nightclubs, and events without looking out of place walking around a market.
Let's start with the basics:
- Wool and Prince Merino/Nylon T-Shirt, Crew
- Wool and Prince Merino Briefs
- Prana Stretch Zion Pants
- Prana Overhold Shorts
- Smartwool / CEP Merino Wool Socks
My travel clothing is mostly merino wool. Merino wool is a highly odor-ressitant fabric, spun extremely tightly to mimic the feel of traditional cotton. It's not quite as soft, but the higher-end merino is pretty damn close. Merino wool comes from a fiber that spent several million years evolving to protect a mammal from wind, cold, moisture, and bacteria. As a T-shirt, it still does that job really well, and definitely out-matches any other synthetic or plant-based fabric.
Wool and Prince Merino Tee and Briefs
The Wool and Prince briefs and T-shirt make an excellent baselayer for all temperatures and conditions. The briefs pass the "sit for 12 hours" test that any airport-friendly underwear should pass, and fit my giant cyclist thighs, too.
I like the Wool and Prince T-shirt update from this year. They've added a small amount of nylon to each individual thread, granting durability to the shirt beyond what 100% wool can accomplish. I've been wearing them for a few weeks and several wash cycles, and they look like new with no shrinkage or pilling, so they'll be my mainstay for the trip. I expect to alternate based on which one's dry, after washing them in hotel sinks.
CEP Compression Socks
I have a bad right foot, and compression socks really keep me moving. If you're struggling with sore feet, too, you might find that compression helps a lot on days where you're walking 10+ miles. I don't go in for the full-calf version, since it really hurts your leg hair after a day.
Prana Stretch Zion Pants
The Prana Stretch Zion pants have been my only pants for the last three years. If that's not a review, I don't know what is. They're made of 3-way stretch nylon, so they're durable without being restrictive. The cut is somewhere between "casual" and "slim," so they suit my pretty athletic build without ever feeling restrictive when I'm hiking and biking. I hike, backpack, bike, commute, travel, and work in these pants. I teach college courses in these pants, and then put them on again for the rock gym the next day. They're great- I highly recommend.
Dress pants, these aren't. Any traveler worth their salt should be able to dress up once in a while. So, my second pair of pants has to be a little classier:
Ministry of Supply Aviator II Pants and Archive Shirt
Ministry of Supply are quickly becoming veterans of travel-friendly dress clothing. I first tried their Aviator pants a few years ago, when they were first getting started, and was very impressed with the material, but the fit was a little bit off. Now, with the Aviator II, the fit of these pants is dialed in, and the benefits of having a quick-drying, wrinkle-resistant chino still puts these in my packing list every time. As a plus, the minimalist styling keeps me looking unassumingly sophisticated, instead of flashy. I like that. Simple pockets, simple buttons, simple pleats.
The Archive shirt's cuffs and collar are "thermolaminated," so they resist wrinkles better. I don't know what that means, but it sounds provocative. With a little bit of stretch to the 100% synthetic fabric, it stays tucked even after a long flight and it stays pressed even after being stuffed in a backpack. The best part: it looks identical to a traditional cotton dress shirt, even close-up. No techno-geekery here!
Zara Man Cardigan
I didn't want to bring anything warm to the desert, and the Zara Man cardigan should be the perfect lightweight layer. It's a bit of an odd piece, because it's buttonless. I found it on eBay for $10, and I've ended up wearing it a lot more than I thought. Having a light cardigan for lounging around has been great, and doesn't take up a lot of room. It also helps dress up a T-shirt.
I have a few more outerwear items to go along with it:
Craghoppers Sun Shirt and Tilley Hat
This lightweight Craghoppers desert shirt works as sun protection and wind protection, depending on the time of day or night. I wouldn't wear it out to the bar, but with the amount of hiking I plan on doing in Israel, I think this is worth the weight. I still have sunscreen for my neck and hands.
The Tilley hat is a cult classic in the traveler's wardrobe. I got mine from my grandfather ten years ago. It's definitely showing its age, but that doesn't mean its wearing out; I expect a lot of mileage to come, and I know Tilley will take care of me if anything does happen.
Montane Spektr Smock
You can't actually buy this jacket anymore, but there are lots like it. An ultralight, sub-10 ounce raincoat is a great insurance policy against all kinds of conditions. When it's cold out, putting on a raincoat and battening down the hatches can significantly increase your warmth. So, I'm covered, even on a cool desert night.
II. Travel Shoes
A good pair of shoes is a must-have for anyone traveling. My right foot is a real problem for me a lot of the time, and I've had six surgeries on it. As part of my constant regimen of keeping pain at bay, I use minimalist footwear to keep circulation flowing.
Minimalist footwear can be great for just about any traveler. These shoes are lightweight, pack completely flat, and are very healthy for your feet on long days of walking, although, you do need to slowly work up to the barefoot sole. It took me about six months to be able to wear these shoes full-time.
Vivobarefoot Gobi
These shoes are absolute rock stars. I've had them for three years. The laces are starting to shred, but with no insole to compress and no glue to slowly delaminate, they are impossible to destroy. The suede leather keeps getting softer, and the worn-in look works as a casual shoe and a dress shoe for most things. These were a great value for what I paid for them, considering how many hundreds of miles I've walked in them.
Teva Terra Fi Lite
I'm going deep on hiking sandals this summer. I tend to wear these with socks to prevent blisters, though I've never gotten a blister without the socks. Maybe i'm preventing a sunburn? Anyways, they're cheap, durable, comfortable, and versatile. I anticipate a lot of use from these this summer.
I may do a last-minute swap to the Vivobarefoot Camino, if they feel comfortable enough out of the box.
II. Technology
I'm wired in every day. It's the nature of being a freelance writer and blogger. Producing content on a weekly or bi-weekly basis means I have to be able to take really good pictures, and carry a pretty decent laptop to push them to the web.
Sadly, I don't have a pretty decent laptop, but this beat-to-hell one does the job!
- Macbook Air 11″
- Seagate Backup Plus 2TB Drive
- Nikon D7000 w/ 35mm Nikon Lens
- MoKo 9000 mAh External Battery
- Light and Motion Solite 250 Headlamp
- Mammut Burny
- iPod Shuffle
Macbook Air 11″
My trusty Macbook Air has been crushed, dropped, and generally mishandled since day one. Luckily, the flash storage and durable casing don't really seem to mind. The screen is really small, the battery life is only at 80% of its original life, and it slows to a crawl when I try to edit photos and listen to music at the same time. But, it's mine, and I love it, and it's damn reliable. I ran out of storage space, so the 2TB Seagate Backup Plus drive is velcro-ed permanently to the outside.
Nikon D7000 w/ 35mm Prime
It's an older camera, but it takes better pictures than most of the cheaper DSLR's from this generation. The D7000 is a great semi-professional camera for the blogger on a budget. The super-fast 35mm prime takes care of 99% of what I want to do with the camera, although I might consider adding a landscape-capable zoom down the road. I wrap this in a cheap Neoprene case and stuff it into my backpack; it's not babied, and for less than $400 total, it doesn't have to be.
Spare Battery and Headlamp
This little MoKo spare battery costs only $23, but it'll charge your cell phone three times to full and it supports pass-through charging, so you can charge the battery and your other stuff at the same time when you finally get access to that airport outlet. Most external batteries don't allow pass-through charging.
The Light and Motion Solite is a great headlamp. It charges via USB and is REALLY bright, bright enough to ride a bike through city streets at night. I plan on doing some camping on this trip, so this will get some use. Otherwise, the Mammut Burny and my cell phone flashlight would be more than enough.
III. Travel Gear
A few other items really help on longer trips. At the end of the day, my backpack is light enough that the extra space for these doesn't bug me and the utility gained is a big plus. Could I live without them? Definitely.
Exped Cloudburst 15
The Cloudburst 15 is a neat little daypack that doubles as a drybag for sensitive electronics in my backpack. Yes, the flaptop is waterproof, but only when it's closed properly. This is a little insurance policy in case something shakes open on top of a bus. Like most of Exped's gear, the Cloudburst is packed with extra little features that are intuitive and innovative. In this case, the classic shock cord storage on the outside is supplemented by quick-release hooks on the side, which let you quickly stuff a jacket without having to loosen and re-tension the cord. So smart!
Marmot Strato Pillow
I don't usually go in for inflatable pillows, since it feels like laying on a pool float. However, the Marmot Strato's very odd shaping makes it pretty relaxing to lay on, at any angle. And at 1.4 ounces, it's the lightest inflatable pillow on the market.
IV. Essentials
When you're traveling, there's plenty of opportunities to find yourself sick, lost, overtired, or in pain. I try to keep the worst at bay with a pretty good toiletries kit. I supplement this stuff with some band-aids, first aid kit, and anti-bacterial ointment.
- Sunscreen
- Toothbrush/Paste
- Res.Q Ointment
- Lip Balm
- Ginger Gum
- Aleve
- Papaya Enzyme
Papaya Enzyme, Res.Q Ointment, and Ginger Gum
Here's the low-down on the weird stuff, since you already know what a toothbrush does.
The Papaya Enzyme is basically an all-natural alternative to Tums. I personally think it's more effective, and the added bonus of not needing to watch your intake (too many Tums can mess with your chemistry) takes the stress out of taking them. I have a light stomach, and when eating food in a foreign place, these have saved me a few times.
Ginger gum helps with motion-sickness, which I definitely experience on airplanes and on buses. I take a piece preemptively and it seems to help!
Burt's Bees Res.Q Ointment is one of the only topical remedies I have tried that really helps with soothing skin issues. Poison ivy, spider bites, mosquito bites, and allergic reactions all seem to benefit from the christmas-tree smelling stuff. It's a nice salve to have on hand for small cuts, too.
- Rite in the Rain Notebook
- Passport/Checkbook
- Titanium Spork
- Pens/Pencils
- Tom Bihn Zip Wallet
Tom Bihn Zip Wallet
This ripstop zip pouch wasn't originally my wallet. I bought it as an organizer pouch for a camera bag. When I lost my wallet three years ago, I started using this.
The durability of this little thing has really impressed me. For how light the ripstop fabric is, it's definitely durable and I wouldn't hesitate to get a larger Tom Bihn bag made from the stuff. What's more, the zip wallet holds a few other items, like small zip-ties, a Space-Pen, and a Leatherman Micra, giving me quick access to a lot of useful stuff, every day. Of course, I don't have the Micra on me when traveling.
Rite in the Rain Notebook
Ok, technically it's a "Tactical Field Book", but I like the Rite in the Rain stuff. The notebooks are durable and, with the waterproof ink of a Space-Pen, I know I'm not going to lose those directions if I drop it in a puddle. I take notes all day, every day.
Speaking of water…
Apparently, everyone gets dehydrated in Israel. I refuse to be a statistic. With this wide mouth steel bottle, I should always have a good amount of water on hand, provided I find a place to refill a couple of times a day. And just in case, the foldable Platypus bottle serves as a backup reservoir for long hikes and longer days. I have used a hydration bladder in the past and considered that for this trip, but I find they're really difficult to fill at bathroom sinks. This is just a simple bottle, so it's refillable everywhere.
The Minimalist Travel Agenda
When you travel this light, there are a few good tips I've learned that make things easier on your limited equipment.
- Keep your stuff nearby. A single bag should help you keep track of your stuff, so you're not caught buying a new wardrobe when TSA loses your duffel. However that also means you'll want to keep really good track of your bag. I also advise keeping your passport, wallet, and camera on your person instead of in your bag. Pickpockets are pretty good in some parts of the world.
- Keep your clothing clean. With Merino Wool, a good rinse in the sink is all it usually takes to get the stink out of my underwear, socks, and T-shirts. I'll wash things each night in my hotel room or hostel, and then roll them up in a towel to squeeze all the excess water out. If you hang them near a window, they're usually all clean by morning. Synthetic stuff washes up equally well, but I don't wash my pants every day.
- Leave room for snacks and drinks. Don't stuff your bag to capacity; on a long day, you might want to carry breakfast, lunch, and a mid-afternoon snack. On long hikes, I anticipate carrying an extra bottle of water, too. I have lots of extra room in my bag.
- Pack Intelligently. Put your underwear, socks, spare raincoat, and dress clothes deep in your bag, since you might not need them as often. Things like a spare T-shirt, cardigan, toiletries, and the essential camera are good candidates for quick-access pockets, or the top of your main stash.
Hopefully, these tips can get you out of the death-grip your checked luggage has on your trip itinerary. With just a backpack, your adventure starts the second you step off the plane, not after the 4-hour "prep" phase at the airport hotel.
Travel light, travel smart, and focus on the experience!

Hip-hop is time travel. A kaleidoscopic-collage adventure for the ear and the mind via the craft of cutting up, arranging, and layering audio and words. Each slice is a fully-loaded time-capsule of its respective milieu, a series of sonic snapshots capturing the cultural culminations of all that preceded these moments in music. Histories become simultaneous, and new histories emerge by way of juxtaposition and collision. It is the invention of the future, and future (as we know it) is always our next now. And, sometimes, hip-hop knows exactly what it is doing. The multi-volume Land of a Thousand Rappers knows.
Seven being a magic number, it took that many years to build this particular time-machine. Michael Kaufmann, Wayne Feldman, Ero Gray, and friends channel a cast of characters, projected archetypes, to transmit tales, myths, jokes, rants, lists, codes, spells, and formulas that both pull and propel the listener through something that is much more than a narrative to a fantastic sci-fi soundscape; it is a means to understanding who we are, have been, and can be.
A genuine epic, as well as an epic undertaking (five albums and an accompanying novella/prose-poem by Michael Kaufmann entitled Zero Seed), Land of a Thousand Rappers draws upon and synthesizes from every age of jazz: early New Orleans/Chicago, boogie-woogie, stride, on through swing, bop, hard bop, free, even into lounge and fusion, with no end of pop elements from around the world, psych, blues, soul, metal, kraut-rock, post-punk, nodding to and evoking far-thinking and far-feeling musical figures such as Harry Partch, Sun Ra, Lee "Scratch" Perry, Moondog, Sun City Girls, The Residents, and Ennio Morricone, as well as visionary writers such as Philip K. Dick, William Blake, Ray Bradbury, Thomas Pynchon, and William S. Burroughs.
Fans of Mike Ladd, Deltron, Madlib, Prince Paul, "FanDam" era EL-P, MF Doom, Dr. Oktagon, and even farther outside/inside artists such as Sensational and Subtitle, will be thrilled and rewarded by the grand, labyrinthine scope and generosity of this unique contribution to the future history of hip-hop.
The time is always now. This is for everyone. This is for you.

I grew up in Canada and miss it terribly although I am very blessed with the life I have built living in the US. Yes, I do hope to return to Canada to live....someday....but for now, Arizona is home.
I love all things related to paper....fancy packaging, letter head, scrapbook supplies, etc. I love the idea of a Kindle to keep all of our "books" but hate the idea that I can't really connect with a book. I love turning those pages and swiping just isn't the same.
I am a professional musician by trade, and wannabe photographer/memory keeper at heart. I was inspired by a fellow blogger and our family photographer to learn how to use my camera and now I'm actually getting somewhat good at it...although I will forever pay her to take those beautiful photos of our entire family :-)
I started Almond Place to connect to others on this journey of life, motherhood, and wifehood. I love my little blog and hope you do too.
Thanks for stopping by :-)

i am a squiggle
You are a Squiggle
(here's a picture of me)
(image courtesy of collage studio & gallery)
Squiggles are creative, witty, and impulsive. Squiggles are eccentric. Squiggles dont do well in a routine. The squiggle is the only pure right-brained thinker. Brain research states that only 12-15% of people are right brained thinkers, so fewer people are true squiggles than what is claimed. Squiggles get bored easily. The need challenges and freedom. Squiggles love to meet challenges because they enjoy peak experiences. Squiggles are random holistic. They not like to bother with details. Squiggles are the ones who ask why. They need to know the reason for things. They are a strong shape along with the triangle. Lots of squares are want to be squiggles. At work, you can recognize the squiggle as the person with the messy office. The squiggle lives in the future. A pure squiggle is as spontaneous as they are fickle. Squiggles are bright and having big ideas and big dreams to match. The squiggles motto is "To dream the impossible dream." Squiggles don't sweat things. Squiggles are the most likely shape to be in a supermarket at midnight. Squiggles are great to have as friends because they are so interesting. However don't count on a squiggle. Squiggles are dramatic, flamboyant, and the most likely to think of themselves as sexy! Meryl Streep and Mikhail Baryshnikov are squiggles.
Dang, now you all know I think I'm sexy! (Actually, I do find myself occasionally singing Right Said Fred's I'm Too Sexy..., it cracks me up. :)
Looks like those three weeks that I worked at Wal-mart, I should have demanded to be the squiggly at those early morning meetings! DARN.
What shape are you?

The Jordan Trainer 2 Flyknit pays homage to the brand's legacy, while providing today's athlete with the best training shoe leading up to game day. The Trainer 2 includes an all-new Flyknit pattern that is supportive and durable, made with every roster position from the court to the gridiron in mind. This marks the first time the brand has utilized Flyknit on a performance model, combining one of Nike's most innovative technologies with true Jordan Brand style and soul.
The incorporation of Flyknit improves flexibility and durability. A mid-strap supports extra lockdown while underfoot a Nike Zoom Air sole offers dynamic cushioning.
Nods to the brand's heritage can be found throughout the shoe, highlighted by the elephant print on the strap, clear outsole and key logo in the inner tongue (a metaphorical passport to the "breakfast club.")

Whether or not these reports are correct, any man made chemicals sprayed onto our body's largest organ are more likely to be potentially harmful than a naturally occurring mineral. Our natural Deo-Stones are made from natural Bauxite Ore which we harvest and refine into pure alum crystal. Alum , one of the most abundant substances on earth, is another naturally occurring compound found in nature and present in the water drink, the food we eat and even the air we breathe. Being in salt, and not in metal form, the crystal deodorantcontains no aluminium that can clog pores and molecules are too large to be absorbed in the body or blood stream. It doesn't even try to mask your bodily smells or stop the natural process of perspiration. So if they dont do that, how do they work? First of all you wet the crystal and rub it on the areas you want to deodorise. The salt deposits stay on your skin, raising the PH level and stopping the bacteria in its track, the hydroscopic salt on your skin reduces the moisture on the areas where it has been applied.The deo-stones are the guaranteed to be free of synthetic oils, alcohol, emulsifiers, solvents and other chemical additives such as propellants which have been shown to damage the ozone layer.Although making a come back this form of deodorants has been used in the health and nutrition industry for over 20 years and similar natural commodities have been used in Europe ands Asia for centuries. Presented individually, or in gift set with a hand crafted onyx base Light Impacts deo stone is making a profitable return to retail of all sizes.
Deodorant stones are basically crystals of natural mineral salts which restrains the growth of odor forming bacteria in a human body. The stones we specialize in making are non-Toxic, fragrance-free, spite free and non-Staining crystals. They are available in different sizes and are wrapped up in a natural unbleached cotton container. The pure and finest deodorant stones are Aluminum and asbestos free. They are pleasantly simple, ordinary and truthfully effectual. They literally provide long lasting shield.
- How do they work?
- Merely wet the Stone and rub slowly onto the areas that require shield, making sure the entire area is covered.
Studies have proved that Deodorant Stone plants an unseen film of protection that prevents odor causing bacteria from forming and gives out a fresh and clean feeling throughout the day. They form an environment unreceptive to bacterial growth. This is somewhat due to the low Ph of the deodorant and perspiration combination.
"It is not a cover-up nor does it obstruct your pores. It just allows your body to function naturally while actually inhibiting bacteria growth."
"It is not a cover-up nor does it obstruct your pores. It just allows your body to function naturally while actually inhibiting bacteria growth."
- How to prevent your stones?
Deodorant Stones are basically salts. Therefore, they can easily liquefy if left in water. After using, situate them somewhere on a small dish or plate so that they can dry out gradually. Exposure to strong direct sunlight could possibly cause the Stone to split.
Make sure, to seize proper care while they are wet because they are greasy. Once they fall onto a hard surface they will rupture and would not be of use anymore. If you have problems holding the Stone then place a dry face flannel on your palm and then hold it with the flannel.

- Question time!
- What's the difference between the Potassium alum in the stones, and aluminum?
The answer is simple. Potassium Alum occurs naturally in minerals such as Bauxite and Kainite. Potassium alum is commercially produced through a leaching process or mother liquor process. The alum that is used in the deodorant stone is in the salt form, not the metallic form whereas; it is the soil and clays that only when processed, produces metallic aluminum products. So, Potassium alum and aluminum are two different things and are produced in a different way.
You must have understood by now that we make exclusively superb deodorant stones which are non-toxic and anti bacterial basis for a fresh and odorless you!

Proroguing and Partisanship
In typical fashion for historians, I want to wait a bit before posting more on the significance of the last five days. But in the meantime, I'm trying to think about this issue beyond my own partisan leanings.
One issue that seems to be cropping up regularly as an argument for why Michäelle Jean should not have granted Harper's request is the fact that since Parliament has been prorogued until late January, this will give Stephen Harper over six weeks to spend Conservative money on advertizing to bash the coalition partners and perhaps fragment their alliance. I don't doubt that this is true. But is this really a valid, non-partisan reason to oppose Governor General Jean's decision? If the other parties were not deeply in debt and unable to spend, would this be an issue? I doubt it. For all that I loathe the Harperites and the way that they use their money, they have proven extremely adept at grassroots fundraising. And to my mind, that's not a reason to oppose proroguing.
Now, using his position as Prime Minister for the next two months to enact policies and make government appointments when he lacks the support of the House - that's a completely different bucket of fish heads...
The Liberals may yet find that the Governor General has given them a gift. But will they take advantage of the next two months to get themselves a new leader and some post-Green Shift direction? For their own sakes, they had better hope so!

The Stars dropped their regular season finale to I-35 rivals San Antonio in a shootout 4-3 Saturday night at the HEB Center.
Rampage winger Klim Kostin fooled Texas starting goaltender Landon Bow with a succulent deke to score the game-winner in the shootout's fifth round.
"I thought their goaltender was outstanding in the third period, which kept them in it," Texas head coach Derek Laxdal said. "At the end of the day, we'll move on. Our guys had a great season."
The game carried no true meaning in terms of the AHL standings as Texas had clinched a spot in the Calder Cup Playoffs a week prior, the same night their opponents down south were eliminated from contention. Texas finishes the season 38-24-8-6 with 90 points and a .592 points percentage.
However, the Stars clinched home-ice advantage for round one of the Calder Cup Playoffs, as their first-round opponent, the Ontario Reign, fell to the Bakersfield Condors 5-1 in their final regular season game.
Texas came-from-behind and forced its 28th overtime game of the season when Brian Flynn tied the game with his 19th goal of the year just 71 seconds remaining in the third period.
Stars forward Travis Morin assisted on the game-tying goal. His 51 helpers paced all AHL players this season. It's the first time Morin has led the league in assists since the team won the Calder Cup in 2013-14.
Kostin's goal was the only one either team scored in the shootout. The Stars finish the season 11-9 in overtime games.
Texas outshot San Antonio 40-23, including a 17-5 advantage in shots on goal in the final period and the five-minute overtime session.
"Thank God there's no three-on-three overtime or shootouts in the playoffs," Laxdal said. "I thought the guys would have more energy tonight and sometimes that backfires, but we'll move on."
As the game mostly served as a tuneup for the Stars' upcoming playoff series, the game's early minutes were less than ideal. Rampage rookie forward Taylor Richart scored his first career AHL goal just 77 seconds into the game to put the road team on top. It was one of two goals Texas would surrender on the penalty kill.
Stars center Sheldon Dries capitalized on a puck-handling error from Rampage netminder Adam Werner to level the score in the bottom half of the first frame. Dries, exclusively on an AHL contract with the Texas Stars, netted his 19th goal of the season on the play - just two Stars players have more this season.
In accordance with the back-and-forth nature of the game, Rampage forward Reid Petryk went backhand/five-hole against Bow to restore the San Antonio advantage early in the second period.
The lead lasted just under five minutes, as recently-signed University of Michigan alum Tony Calderone fired a wrist shot past Werner on a Texas power play for his first professional goal.
"I know I had a couple of chances in those earlier games, but to actually score one felt awesome," Calderone said.
Just a minute and a half later, struggles on the penalty kill continued for Texas, as Zach Sanford fired a shot past Bow for a marker on the man-advantage. Sanford, a highly-regarded St. Louis Blues prospect, gave the Rampage the lead entering the third period with his fourth goal of the year.
Texas is looking ahead to the postseason, with the Stars hosting Pacific Division opponents the Ontario Reign on Thursday and Friday in Cedar Park.
"We got chasing the game early, and that seems to happen quite often lately, and we have to make sure we have a great start on Thursday," Laxdal said. "Like I said to the guys after the game, it's all about them in the dressing room. There are 29 guys in there, and at some point in time, someone's gonna have to step up. Any given night, someone can be a hero, and we just have to be ready for it."

Santa Barbara County water agencies announced Friday that they will receive $2 million in state funding for a pumping project at Cachuma Lake -- a source of drinking water for 220,000 people on the southern central coast -- where water levels have dropped precipitously low.
As the California drought drags on, conditions have jeopardized the lake's gravity-fed system that supplies water to customers. If the situation does not improve, officials may have to begin pumping at the end of April or early May, said Randy Ward, general manager of the Cachuma Operation and Maintenance Board.
The lake provides drinking water to the cities of Goleta and Santa Barbara, Montecito and Carpinteria. If water levels reach a certain low point -- dependent on demand, temperature and rain -- gravity will no longer work as a way of getting water out of lake, and it will have to be pumped out, Ward said.
The pump is already in place, but if the state money had not come through, customers would have had to bear the burden of paying for the $5-million system through higher water rates, said state Sen. Hannah-Beth Jackson (D-Santa Barbara), who worked with Assemblyman Das Williams (D-Carpinteria) to secure the funding.
Cachuma Lake, which is at 28% capacity, is disappearing with little hope that conditions will improve anytime soon.
"When you can drive along the lake bed, you know you have a problem," Jackson said Friday.
Before the drought, Cachuma "spilled" — filled to the brim, to the point where millions of gallons of clean, fresh water were released through the dam's gates to flow to the sea.
The reservoir has been in trouble before. In 1990 and 1991, water levels were even lower. Back then, some residents were catching excess shower water in buckets to use to flush their toilets.
Now, chunks of the past are strewn about the exposed lakebed as the water recedes — overturned rowboats, anchors, buoys, maritime cables, even fishing lures that snagged on branches perhaps decades ago.
The money was awarded by the State Water Resources Control Board and the state Department of Water Resources.

This book for the blind is offered in Original or Unified English Braille.What is Original Braille?What is Unified English Braille
Facing the Future continues the cliff-hanging ending of the third book, Through the Flames, where the kids successfully pull off a sting on the man who murdered Lionel's uncle and convert countless others to life with Christ. But they soon realize they have even more to worry about: Bruce thinks he's fingered the great deceiver, the Antichrist, a man named Nicolae Carpathia. The Left Behind kids break out their Bibles to form the Kids Tribulation Force, while Bruce outlines why Carpathia has taken over the instrument of all future evil, the United Nations, and a secret meeting with an eyewitness to evil confirms the kids' worst fears." - Paul Hughes, Amazon.com.

U.S. to propose mandatory vehicle 'black boxes'
David Shepardson
Detroit News
May 27, 2011
The U.S. Transportation Department said today it will propose making vehicle "black boxes" mandatory in all vehicles by the end of the year.
The department's National Highway Traffic Safety Administration has long considered whether to make black boxes, officially called event data recorders, or EDRs, mandatory. They collect data about the seconds leading up to a crash and can help investigators determine the cause.
Last year, Congress considered requiring EDRs in all vehicles. NHTSA Administrator David Strickland told Congress the agency was studying the issue.
The plan was included in a 197-page Transportation Department regulatory reform proposal released by the White House this morning.
"NHTSA plans to propose mandatory EDRs in all passenger vehicles in 2011," the Transportation Department said in the report.
In a separate agency document posted on its website, NHTSA said it is also working on a proposal "for future enhancements to (EDRs) capabilities and applicability."

Because the University's cultural and social organizations have largely been shaped by students from families nurtured in the Anglo-American and European traditions, it has not always been easy for students from different backgrounds to enter the mainstream of campus life. As trustee John M. Doar pointed out to the Board of Trustees, students from minority groups may miss something in their educational experience -- not owing to a failure on the part of the University, but rather because the situation in which they find themselves is often different from the circumstances to which they have been accustomed. Minority students thus felt uneasiness and in many instances a sense of insecurity.
In 1971 the University began to recruit actively students who, while qualified, had not been a substantial part of the community. It was then believed and has since been established that increased participation of students from various backgrounds would stimulate and enrich the intellectual and cultural life of the University. With the increased enrollment of minority students in the early 1970s, Princeton had to give particular attention to ways in which these students could come together on an intellectual and cultural basis, to help them appreciate better their own backgrounds and to enhance their self-confidence. The University also recognized the need to have a means whereby the rest of the University community could better understand and appreciate the backgrounds and views of minority students.
During the academic year 1970-71, leaders of various minority groups expressed a strong interest in a facility for activities of their own that would include seminars, colloquia, exhibits, cultural shows, and social events. After a proposal had been carefully worked out and subjected to the most searching review, such a center was opened in the fall of 1971. As with other University-sponsored collegiate facilities, the Third World Center is open to all students. Its academic and cultural program is shaped by the students, the Master, and a Program Director. The Center is not residential and does not normally serve meals. Its aim is to provide through intellectual and social activities a setting and a program that will help students to reinforce each other and also to create a forum for greater awareness and understanding among people of differing cultural backgrounds. In doing so, the Third World Center has become a vital part of the University's cultural life and a resource for the whole University community.

What is the key to living to a better life? That is a question that our society has become engrossed with now-a-days. Numerous books have been written and countless lectures have given by health specialists on the importance of natural simple foods. They all state that we should try and consume more natural simple foods and chemical medication. However, what they are saying today, Islam has been saying since the time of Prophet Muhammad, peace and blessing be upon him.
In this book the author relates numerous natural super foods and holistic remedies, which if applied to our every day lives, will not only help make our life become better, but will improve our over-all health dramatically. All that a person needs to live a better and healthy life has been discussed by the author and he shows how this is all related from the Qur'an and the Sunnah pf the Last Messenger, Muhammad, peace be upon him.
This book is a must fro all those who wish to live a natural and healthy life. Whoever reads this book with an open mind will realize the importance that a healthy life style has within the Islamic faith. A life style that is encouraged by the Allah, the Lord of all Creation, and by His beloved Prophet Muhammad, peace be upon him.
