Michelle Obama Hilariously Breaks Down Why Melania Trump's Inauguration Gift Exchange Appeared So Awkward
The former FLOTUS also explained to Ellen Degeneres how Barack stepped in and saved the day.
Through an abundance of dark melodies and heavy drums, Gunplay's message on his latest mixtape Cops N Robbers is prevalent – this is an ode to the streets. Pure unadulterated rider music strictly for the trap, not for radio. An overflow of mediocre beats and rundown concepts certainly slow down the momentum a red-hot Gunplay had last year prior to turning himself into authorities last October. All in all, the raspy voiced MC still manages to deliver a few flashes of genius throughout the project.
Fresh off house arrest, the Triple-C capo's latest offering does possess some buzzworthy moments, but those flashes quickly get overshadowed by tracks like "Drop" and "I'm a Shooter" featuring Alley Boy. Both cuts sound like productions MMG bawse Rick Ross passed over. Yeah the "Rollin" rapper may have his bars up, but it's hard to ignore the seam of underdeveloped concepts on cuts like "The Hard Way" and "Bet That" with Pusha-T.
Sprinkled with a few not so impressive freestyles over classic '90s instrumentals like "Ion Beg" (Dr. Dre's "Nuthin' But a G-Thang") and "No Church" (DMX's "What's My Name"), these attempts don't mesh well with the tape's overall direction and just come off confusing and out of place. Luckily, Gunplay undoubtedly brings the pain on bangers like "Definition of a Plug" with Yo Gotti and "Ghetto Symphony" featuring A$AP Rocky. Other notable collaborations, like "Daddy" featuring Trina, feel slightly dated and might leave listeners feeling short changed.
Although the tape isn't cohesively as put together as his previous mixtape, 601 & Snort, the MMG spitter attempts to make up for the shortcomings with an energetic flow and witty bars. Unfortunately, lyrics alone might not be enough to keep the attention of fans let alone meet the standard of quality records we're used to hearing from the Maybach empire.
While Gunplay still shows sparks of brilliance and potential, CNR's not the best example of that. But one thing that's evident throughout the tape is that the Dade County repper's on a mission, and he's clearly not worried about who's coming with or who's left in the wind, fans and radio included.

Welcome to the first Halo Weekly Update for May! It is now exactly 6 weeks until E3 2014 will be coming to a close – by which time we will have hopefully had a strong dose of information on Halo: Xbox One… Almost there!
On a side note about the Halo Bulletin, Bravo has said that they're looking at adjusting the release time of the Bulletin where possible to make it a more optimal time for all readers.
Matchmaking Updates
As reported last week, Heavies joined the list of available playlists in Halo 4 on Monday. This will be a permanent playlist until further notice, and of course has now been removed from the "Featured Playlist" pool. Heavies is a 6v6 playlist featuring Slayer, CTF and KotH modes on various maps including those from the Crimson and Castle Map Packs. Heavies did not become a part of the Big Team Battle playlist because Heavies is a 6v6 playlist, whereas BTB is an 8v8. Having that separation also means that is it feasible to start adding other 6v6 modes to Heavies, such as Dominion.
Multi-Team was also added on Monday as the featured playlist – available until May 12th. Multi-Team pits 4 teams of 3 players against each other in Infinity Slayer, Legendary Slayer BR, Oddball, KotH, SWAT, Regicide and Ricochet modes.
Community Choice: Action Sack
Action Sack is the subject of this week's Community Choice poll – which mode out of the following 3 would you like to see added?
Team Ninja Assassins
A 4 vs. 4 version of Halo 4's most popular Free-For-All game type! All of the sniping, sneaking, slicing, but this time, you've got ninja teammates who will (hopefully) assist with the assassinations.
Sticky Detonators, Plasma Grenades, and an Oddball. Side effects may include explosions. Sticky ones.
Shotgun CTF
Similar to Shotgun Ricochet, Shotgun CTF equips players with Thruster Packs, Plasma Grenades, and a standard issue M45D Tactical Shotgun.
Head here to vote!
Handy Links
That's mostly all for this week. Be sure to check out the latest Halo Bulletin for a feature on an awesome fully-functional airsoft Spartan Laser (pictured above), a recap of Beyond Entertainment's Halo 4 1v1 Spring Showdown Tournament and a Wraith-focused Screenshot Spotlight!
Until next week!

Jeju Island in South Korea is the alternative tropical island you're looking for
IF you've been to many of Asia's tourist-heavy beach islands, you can certainly pin down what to expect after a few of them: Clusters of multi-hued corals, tourists tanning on lazybeds, raucous beach parties till sundown, and scores of luxury beach resorts looking out to the blue waters.
But Jeju Island, on the contrary, is far more unpredictable. There's an air of mystery that envelopes the island, not least because of its dark and hidden past that has slipped under the radar of many visitors.
On sunnier days, it's popularly considered to be the "Hawaii of Korea", an isolated island off the southern tip of South Korea that's proven a top spot for Korean honeymooners and couples to get away for a weekend.
Here's why it's worth flying out for.
The museums are… interesting
Museum-hopping may seem an odd choice on a tropical island. But on Jeju, you'll want to visit a few.
Loveland is the most talked-about, an adult-only enclosure of erotic sculptures where art and sex meet. Because sex is a largely taboo subject in South Korea, the museum piques the curiosity of many.
There's also a teddy bear museum that could qualify as both cute and creepy, a slightly camp Greek mythology museum, a Haenyo museum, a clay museum, and a computer museum.
Even if offbeat, these museums are a fun way to spend the afternoon, an experience you'll be hard-pressed to find on any other Asian island.
It's home to the highest peak in South Korea
Jeju is a haven for natural landscapes and views that include gorgeous seaside cliffs, rugged volcanoes and unique rock formations.
Hiking to South Korea's highest summit, Mount Halla, is the best way to cop a view of the wonders of Jeju. The trails up the mountain are led by well-maintained steps, making it a fairly easy climb even for beginners.
At the peak, gaze down below at the magnificent crater lake, a deep blue recess set against a backdrop of green. It's best to time your hike after the rain clears so that clouds don't obstruct the views from the top.
You get to meet the inspiring Haenyo divers
Haenyo – or sea divers – refer to the female divers in Jeju that venture into the sea beds for shellfish to sell. These women – some into their seventies – strive to carry on the legacy of women divers that spans generations.
These "Korean mermaids" free dive into cold waters and can hold their breath underwater for several minutes simply to harvest seafood such as abalone, sea urchin and octopus.
Because of the semi-matriarchal family structure practised in Jeju, women are seen as breadwinners in their families just as men are, and are known to be tough and burly.
The tradition is slowly dying off as younger girls are given opportunities to pursue tertiary education and opt for less strenuous professions such as tourism.
It's the birthplace of bibimbap
If you're not already aware, bibimbap is one the most delicious things to eat in South Korea, if not in Asia. Literally translating to mixed rice, it's a bowl of colours, flavours and textures like no other.
Warm rice is scooped into a bowl before topped with a melange of ingredients such as sautéed carrots, julienned cucumber, pickled radish, Korean chilli paste, soy sauce, sliced beef and a raw egg.
Before eating, use a pair of chopsticks to stir the egg and vegetables with the rice until it becomes a gooey, delicious mess. Sit down to a decent bowl at Gogung Insadong.

You can explore the island on foot
Circling the island are the Olle trails, a 26-kilometer-long trail that gives visitors a "crash course" on Jeju's natural wonders. The paths are well-marked and free to use.
Along the way, you'll encounter postcard-worthy views of mountains, beachfront shores and unlikely village backyards.
You can choose to stroll farm roads fringed by tangerine orchards, walk along rocky coastlines and traverse some of the local neighborhoods that you might otherwise overlook.
The trails really are the best way to discover Jeju Island in the span of a long walk, and a great way to kick off a trip on an island bounteous of so many natural wonders.

CHALLENGES FACING THE UMMAH OF MUHAMMAD (pbuh):
"The Fitna of Broken Homes"
By Shaikh Abdullah Faisal
08.28.2012 (Night Dars)
NOTES typed by AT7/AT21
Edited and Formatted by AT21/AT7
The last time we spoke on forced marriages
-and I told you I don't need to speak much about it
Narrated Khansa bint Khidam Al-Ansariya that her father gave her in marriage when she was a matron and she disliked that marriage. So she went to Allah's Apostle and he declared that marriage invalid. (Bukhari Vol 7, Book 62, No 69)
-only an ayat is sufficient
-and the hadith of Khansa
O you who believe! You are forbidden to inherit women against their will, and you should not treat them with harshness, that you may take away part of the Mahr you have given them,
unless they commit open illegal sexual intercourse. And live with them honourably. If you dislike them, it may be that you dislike a thing and Allah brings through it a great deal of good. (An-Nisa 4:19)
-and this is prevalent in darul harb
-this is because sometimes brothers have 2 or 3 wives and the marriages fall apart
-there are brothers who ask for a 2nd wife when they can't manage the first
-so not everyone is skillful in marriage
In darul harb the environment is geared towards breaking the family
-a program like Jerry Springer is used to promote adultery
-and use these vices to entertain the population
How can you be on public TV and your wife confess cheating on you
-and then you have to fight with her boyfriend
-this is not entertaining but disgusting
Anas Ibn Malik narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "When a person gets married he has completed half of his religion, so let him fear Allah with regard to the other half." [al-Bayhaqi narrated in Shu'ab al-Eemaan (7/340) No. 5100]
Anas Ibn Malik (RA) reported the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: "Whomever Allah blesses with a righteous wife, He has helped him with half of his religion, so let him fear Allah with regard to the other half." [Mustadrak al-Haakim (2/175) No. 2681 and Shu'ab al-Eemaan al-Bayhaqi (7/341) No. 5101]
Marriage is a holy institution
-but they turn it to a bad thing
The Illuminati control the media and they spread these vices
-the shaytan likes to break up families
-and the real shaytan is the one who breaks up a family
In darul harb there is the systematic destruction of the family
-in 1993 they brought out an advert and said 'don't miss it' for a whole week
-you will be shocked what the title of this movie was
-it was a woman's guide to adultery
So the Illuminati made a documentary to teach the women how to cheat and not get caught
-look how the society is
-these men that made these documentaries are fools
-because if a man wants to investigate his wife he will catch her
-there is something called private investigators that always catch them
-because they bug the phones
Mark Oaten was caught in that way
MARK OATEN : http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mark_Oaten
-and he had to step down from the political scene
-they finished his character
-if you criticize the Illuminati they ruin you
Julian Assange is wanted in Sweden for rape
-as soon as he exposed the Illuminati they filed rape
-he is now trapped in the Ecuador's embassy in England
Jabir reported that Allah's Messenger (may peace be upon him) said: Iblis places his throne upon water; he then sends detachments (for creating dissension) ; the nearer to him in tank are those who are most notorious in creating dissension. One of them comes and says: I did so and so. And he says: You have done nothing. Then one amongst them comes and says:
I did not spare so and so until I sowed the seed of discord between a husband and a wife. The Satan goes near him and says: 'You have done well. A'mash said: He then embraces him. [Sahih Muslim, Book 39, Hadith #6755]
The family structure is under attack
-because the secret rulers of the world gravitate towards homosexuality
-they attack a holy institution like marriage
In the west they have embarked upon a systematic destruction of the family
-the Dajjaal does not have kids
-and these people are the forerunners of him
-they set up a system for him to come and fit
On the authority of Hudhayfah (RA) said: "The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said: 'I know what the Dajjaal will bring with him: he will have two rivers flowing. One will clearly look like water and the other will clearly look like blazing fire. If any one of you sees that, let him choose the river which looks like fire, then let him close his eyes and lower his head and drink from it, for it will be cool water.'" [Sahih Muslim (4/2249) No. 2934]
The Rasul (saw) said the dajjaal has 2 rivers
-one is like water and the other like fire
-so jump to the latter because it is the paradise
The system of the dajjaal is deception
-so if you are in the West and not careful you may lose the furqan
-they mix the truth with falsehood
Whosoever the Illuminati love you have to hate
-and vice versa
-they want to corrupt your minds and give you their own understanding
They want to destroy the family and many Muslims have fallen victim
-and they want to destroy the family because if there is no father figure in the home
-the kids can easily be lead astray
They also instill and embed in the hearts of our women feminism
-so there are Muslim women who say if the men can marry Christian women
-why can't I marry a Christian man
-another said they should have same portion of inheritance as the man
-and that they don't agree with the rule for every male witness there is 2 women witnesses
-if a Muslim man can have a concubine why can't I
-these are feminist
Some Muslim women say why can't they have more than one husband
-that's a feminist
-so feminism is used to destroy the family
Whenever your wife becomes a feminist she is no more marriage material
-she may pray and wear the hijab but she is feminist
Women who were born in the late 1970s in the west are divorced (most of them)
-she may look pious but a feminist and very disobedient to her husband
-she leaves the house when she feels like
If you know you can't be obedient then be an old maid
-don't get married
The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "If I were to command anyone to prostrate before anyone, I would have commanded the wife to prostrate before her husband, because of the enormity of his right upon her." [Sunan Abu Dawud (2/244) No. 2140, Sunan al-Darime (1/406) No. 1463, al-Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (8/253) No. 9102, Sunan Tirmidhi (3/465) No. 1159, Sunan Ibn Majah (3/59) No. 1853, Musnad Ahmad (5/227) No. 22037]
The prophet (saw) said if bowing was allowed to man,
-women would have been commanded to bow to their husbands
-and that she should comply when her husband calls her to bed
Abu Huraira (RA) said: The Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, "If a man calls his wife to his bed and she refuses, and thus he spends the night angry with her, the angels continue cursing her till the morning." [al-Bukhari (3237) and Muslim (1436)]
And if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly with the orphan girls, then marry (other) women of your choice, two or three, or four but if you fear that you shall not be able to deal justly (with them), then only one or (the captives and the slaves) that your right hands possess. That is nearer to prevent you from doing injustice. (An-Nisa 4:3)
-this hadith says a real man calls a woman to bed not a man
-and calls a woman to bed when he feels like
-the hadith also tells us a real man is not impotent
-and he marries whom he is attracted to
It also tells us the angels curse human beings
Talq ibn Ali (RA) reported that Allahs Messenger (SAW) said, "When a man calls his wife to satisfy his urge then she must go to him even if she is at the stove." [Sunan Tirmidhi (3/465) No. 1160, Sunan al-Kubra al-Nasa'i (8/187) No. 8922 and Musannaf Ibn Abi Shaybah (3/558) No. 17135]
-the perfect wife is the one who will switch off the oven and answer to your call
-and if you have such a wife please don't divorce her
-turn a blind eye to all her other weaknesses
Don't be narrow minded and turn your mind to the minor aspects of the deen
-don't see someone with a long beard or hijab and say Masha Allah what a pious person
-you don't know what filth may be coming from their mouths
This woman who may be on hijab may just be giving nushooz
-the Berailvis wear hijab but pray to the graves
-so you need to look deeper and not be narrow minded
On the authority of Abu Huraira: "Verily Allah does not look to your bodies nor to your faces but He looks to your hearts," and he pointed towards the heart with his fingers. [Sahih Muslim, Book 32, Hadith #6220]
Look at the aqeeda and deeds of the person not just the exterior
So the reason why there are so many broken homes is you have these Muslims
-coming from Muslim environments to the west
-which is a dajjaal society geared towards destroying the family
They keep the men out of job and give it to the women
-this makes the men lose their masculinity
-the worst thing in life is to be financially embarrassed
When you have no money you lose your masculinity
-your kids and wife won't respect you
-and hence they destroy the family
Luqman the wise said the most bitter thing he ever tasted in life is poverty
Luqman to his son, he said: "My son! I have carried grass-hoppers and cast-iron but I have never seen anything heavier (to bear) than a bad neighbour, and I have tasted all the bitterness, but I have never tasted anything more bitter than poverty." [Ibn Abi Shaybah in 'Musannaf' (7/74) No. 34296 and al-Bayhaqi in 'Shu'ab al-Eman' (12/101) No. 9108]
-even though he has tasted many other things
-he also said he has carried many heavy things but never carried
-anything heavier than a bad neighbour
Some people preach poverty but they should not
-look at the statement of Luqman the wise
-if you have a cup of coffee that is strong but keep adding water, it gets diluted
-so if you keep pouring strange ideas into the Muslims you dilute Islam
-they have infiltrated us with nationalism, rationalism, racism
-also with the deviant groups
The kuffaar have the Rand foundation that studies Islam to attack it and dilute it
-they say they are supposed to be concerned with the Muslims
-that reject democracy and call for sharia
-and that these people are on the rise
A 2007 report by the Rand Corp., a U.S. think tank, advised Western governments to "harness" Sufism, saying its adherents were "natural allies of the West." Read more:
-after that they said the only way to fight Islam successfully is to spread Soofism into them
-this will dilute Islam and make it not a threat to the west
-so the soofis and their masjids will always be supported by the west
Hisham Kabbani the caliph for snake Nazim is a spy for the west
-they belong to the naqshabandiya tariqa
-and don't preach al walaa wal baraa
Shaikh in Africa
-I saw a tijaania woman married to a Christian
-I told her, her marriage is baatil and the kids are illegitimate
-she said to me who are you to tell me this when the shaikhs here never told me so
All the soofi shaikhs care about is having a large following
-and making dhikr until they get high
-but they are so jaahil in the deen
-they even believe Allah is everywhere and not over the Arsh
Narrated By Anas: Zaid bin Haritha came to the Prophet complaining about his wife. The Prophet kept on saying (to him), "Be afraid of Allah and keep your wife." 'Aisha said, "If Allah's Apostle were to conceal anything (of the Qur'an he would have concealed this Verse." Zainab used to boast before the wives of the Prophet and used to say, "You were given in marriage by your families, while I was married (to the Prophet) by Allah from over seven Heavens." And Thabit recited, "The Verse: 'But (O Muhammad) you did hide in your heart that which Allah was about to make manifest, you did fear the people,' (33.37) was revealed in connection with Zainab and Zaid bin Haritha." [Sahih Bukhari, Vol 9, Book 93, Hadith 516]
Abu Haneefah (rh) said, when asked of his opinion of the one who says, 'I do not know whether Allah is above the heavens or on the earth.' - "He has disbelieved, because Allah says, "The Most Merciful rose above the Throne," and His Throne is above His seven heavens.' He was then asked , 'what if he said that Allah is above His Throne but he does not know whether the Throne is in the heavens or on the earth?' He said, 'He has disbelieved, because He has denied that He is above the heavens, And whosoever denied that He is above the heavens has disbelieved." ('Sharh Usul I'tiqaad Ahlus Sunnah' of al-Laalikaaee (d.414AH), 'al-Uluww' of adh- Dhahabee, also 'Sharh Aqueedah at-Tahaawiyyah' of ibn Abee al-Izz al-Hanafee)
Ja'far Ibn Abdullah narrated: We were with Malik Ibn Anas when a man came to him and said: "O Abu Abdullah (Allah said) 'Ar-Rahman upon the Throne Istawa' (20:5), how was His Istiwa? Imam Malik inclined his head and was silent until the sweat of fever covered his brow, then he looked up and said: "Istiwa is not unknown, the Kayf (how) is uncomprehendable, believing in it is wajib (obligatory), and asking about it is bid'ah (innovation), and I do not think that you are anything but an innovator." Then he ordered that the man be expelled. [Abu-Naeem Al-Asbahani in 'Hilyatul-Awliya wa Tabaqat Al-Asfiya' (Vol. 6, pg. 325-326)]
The Jewish black magic are the ones that say Allah is everywhere
-so what are you Muslim or Jew?
So they have infiltrated us with democracy
-the soofis believe in democracy
-even the Tabligh Jammat believes in it
Once you preach democracy in your masjid you are preaching Rand Islam
Dodgy aqeeda has become so widespread
-people reject the truth even if it is clear
Anas ibn Malik (RA) narrated the Messenger of Allah (SAW) said, 'The time of the Dajjal will be years of confusion. People will believe a liar, and disbelieve one who tells the truth. People will distrust one who is trustworthy, and trust one who is treacherous; and the Ruwaybidah will have a say.' Someone asked, 'Who are the Ruwaybidah?' He said, 'Those who rebel against Allah and will have a say in general affairs.'" [Musnad Ahmad (3/220) No. 13322]
Narrated by Muslim (145) from Abu Hurayrah who said: The Messenger of Allaah (peace and blessings of Allaah be upon him) said: "Islam began as something strange and will revert to being strange as it began, so give glad tidings to the strangers."
The truth is weird
-it's like being given good food and your tommy reacts to it
-because you are used to eating bad food
-so because you are used to hearing baatil, the truth doesn't enter your heart
O you who believe! Enter perfectly in Islām (by obeying all the rules and regulations of the Islāmic religion) and follow not the footsteps of Shaitān (Satan). Verily! He is to you a plain enemy (Al-Baqarah 2:208)
They have also infiltrated us with secularism
-separating Islam and confining it to the masjid
-they don't realise the Shahada is the highest level of politics
-it has the negation part and affirmation part
-this is the highest level of politics
-the story of the ditch tells you this
They had nothing against them, except that they believed in Allah, the All-Mighty, Worthy of all Praise! (Al-Buruj 85:8)
When you go to the Tabligh masjid they will never teach you
-al walaa wal baraa, tauheed haakimiyya or sharia
-they only teach the 6 points from their book Fazail Amal
Muhammad Ibrahim [the shaikh of bin Baaz] said in page 6 of his book Tahkeem al Qawaneen: "Tawheed haakimiyya is the twin half of tawheed Ibaada."
The good thing about them is they accept the hujjah when told
-they are so humble and believe in taking care of the guest
There is no room for secularism
Allah said:
This day, I have perfected your religion for you, completed My Favour upon you, and have chosen for you Islām as your religion. But as for him who is forced by severe hunger, with no inclination to sin (such can eat these above-mentioned meats), then surely, Allah is Oft Forgiving, Most Merciful. (Al-Ma'idah 5:3) (outake of long ayat which was mentioned)
It is reported in the Saheehayn (i.e. Saheeh al-Bukharee and Saheeh Muslim), from Umar Ibn al-Khattab (radhi allahu anhu) that a Jewish man said to him: "O Ameer al-Mumineen (O head of the Muslims)! There is a verse in the Qur'aan, which if was revealed on us, the Jews, we would have taken that day as an Eid (festival)." Umar asked: "Which verse?" He said: "This day I have perfected your religion for you, completed My favor upon you, and have chosen for you Islam as your religion." [Soorah al-Maidah (5)
The Jews said if this ayah was revealed in their book they
-would have made that day a celebration day
Islam came to you spiritually with our emaan system
-judiciary with the sharia
-militarily with jihad
-economically with the zakah system
A secularist will say if we want to show anything on TV allow us
-if we want to set up riba banks don't interfere
-if we want to allow farmers to rear pigs don't interfere
-this is a secularist
-who believes Islam should be confined to the 4 corners of the masjid
You can't be a Muslim and secularist at the same time
They have infiltrated us with nationalism
-we say Malaysian first then Muslim
-it is so strong Saudi and other countries don't allow you to marry their women
There is so much nationalism and racism in the ummah
-it is called divide and rule
-and these are so rife among us
-a Berailvis will save a drowning Hindu and leave a Black Muslim
-a jaahil Somali will rather his daughter marry a drunkard from Somalia
-than a pious Muslim from another country
-this is called asabiyya
Narrated Jubair ibn Mut'im: The Messenger of Allah (SAW), said: "He is not one us who calls for `Asabiyah, (nationalism/tribalism) or who fights for `Asabiyah or who dies for `Asabiyah." [Sunan Abu Dawud (Vol. 2, pg. 753) No. 5121]
Even 2 Pakistanis sometimes don't marry
-because within the community you have many tribes
-and they don't intermarry
-unless they do behind their parents backs

If I watch late-night television, I watch Craig Ferguson. Not Jay Leno. Apparently Jay Leno angered some people in the Sikh community the other night. Here's how Politico explains it:
Late-night comedian Jay Leno has landed in hot water with the Sikh community for showing a picture of the sacred Darbar Sahib, also known as the Golden Temple, on his show last week and jokingly referring to it as Mitt Romney's summer home.
During the segment, "The Tonight Show" host shared with the audience a "behind-the-scenes look at all the presidential candidates' homes," calling the pictures "quite revealing" of the 2012 hopefuls.
After unveiling pictures of Newt Gingrich's estate in Virginia and Ron Paul's ranch house in Texas, the comedian purported to show a photograph of Romney's summer home on Lake Winnipesaukee but flashed an image of the famous golden shrine located in Punjab, India, instead.
Thousands from the Sihk community have already signed an online petition called, "NBC — The Tonight Show with Jay Leno: Stop defaming Sikhs and using derogatory remarks against the Sikh shrines."
OK, so what's missing from this report? Well, speaking as someone who is neither Sikh nor familiar with what constitutes derogatory remarks against Darbar Sahib, I'm completely lost. What, exactly, angered these thousands of Sikhs? It seems like such a basic fact to include, no?
The Politico article goes on to quote the petition creator as saying that Leno has previously made racist comments but the article simply cites the claims, rather than putting them in context or verifying them in any way. For instance, many media outlets are repeating this claim that in 2007, Jay Leno called Sikhs "diaper heads." I did a very simple Google search from January 1, 2007, to January 1, 2008, and didn't find the basis for the claim. It's a scurrilous charge, but is it true?
Anyway, I'm sure it's not that difficult to explain why Leno's joke was offensive to some Sikhs. Even if it is, it's vitally important information for readers. Particularly since it's become an international incident, according to this Reuters report:
American host Jay Leno has sparked anger among Sikhs with a joke about their holiest shrine and the Indian government is making its displeasure known.
In his 'Tonight Show' last week, the comedian poked fun at the wealth of U.S. presidential candidate Mitt Romney, suggesting that Sikhism's holiest shrine, the Golden Temple in Amritsar, was his vacation home.
A complaint against Leno will be officially filed by India's ambassador to the United States, Nirupama Rao, after 2,000 people signed an online petition.
"The Right to Speech under the First Amendment to the United States Constitution excludes defamation and spreading hate, incitement and false advertising," the petition urged.
Reuters rather humorously quoted a State Department official explaining how both satire and the First Amendment work.
But the Reuters article also fails to explain the religious objection raised by some Sikhs.

"People don't buy what you do, they buy why you do it."
The What
When producing, the what is fairly clear: produce a successful musical or film. At the end of the day, what is delivered is the same across board. So why do certain shows become massive hits and others close after two weeks? Is it bad songs? Maybe, but there are flop shows with excellent songs. Is it the cast? Possibly, but most great actors have their fair share of bad shows.The answer lies in the strength and clarity of the why.
The Why
Understanding the why gives us a human or emotional connection. Every Broadway show has access to amazing talent, flashy marketing agencies, and huge investments. The differentiator is the why. Why was the piece created? Why does the show exist? After all, people don't buy what you do; they buy why you do it. Composers and writers are often unaware of the why initially. They follow an inspiration and embark on their creative journey. It is the job of the producer to recognize and amplify the why. This will inform the entire process. That process is the how.
The How
The how of producing is much more complicated and evolving rapidly with the merging of technology and the arts. As member of both the tech and arts communities, I find this intersection to be particularly exciting.
The producer's first task, in the broadest sense, is to bring the right people together. Through the advent of the Internet that is easier than ever, since we are no longer inhibited by location. We can discover new artists and make connections all over the world. Shows are literally being written online. We see teams transfer files on cloud based storage systems where they're able to pull from the same underlying text or music. Writers on opposite ends of the globe, down the road from each, or across the country can collaborate in real time with services like Skype, Slack, and Google Hangout.
Producers in the future must be willing to embrace different forms of technology, as they help move the process forward. While I don't believe you can ever completely replace meeting in person, by embracing new technologies we are cultivating an ecosystem where more people than ever before can come together to create new, emotionally rich stories
A major challenge of mounting a Broadway show is timing. You don't want to open too early, because once you're in the theater, that machine is operating at full speed. Shows often spend years in the development process, going through the Broadway feedback loop:
Reading -> Rewrite -> Reading -> Rewrite -> Workshop -> Rewrite -> Reading (ad nauseam)
This process gets expensive quickly. The major pitfall of the feedback loop is protecting our projects too long. As artists, we don't want to show it until it's "ready". I subscribe to a tried and tested maxim from the software community: fail early fail fast. Technology allows us to create and cultivate our audience a lot earlier in the process. Not only will you learn what elements of the piece aren't working, but you will develop your cohort. Just like in tech, you can cultivate those early adaptors who will influence others and help build your brand. We've seen some classic examples like Veronica Mars on KickStarter or Levar Burton and his reading initiative.
Another challenge of theater is the fact that people must be physically present. Fortunately, new and emerging technologies can provide audience members around the world meaningful access to the show.
Social media is already bringing Broadway to wider audience than ever before, but I'm interested in how we can take it further. Altspace VR, a company I've invested in with the Maven Portfolio, is revolutionizing the concept of VR by creating virtual human gathering places. You can interact, play, and create with other people using wearable technology such as Vive or Oculus Rift. We're seeing the 360 video come onto the scene. Right now, it's mostly for the wow-factor, but we're quickly learning how to better use the technology to provide a feeling of presence to the user. Broadway shows like School of Rock and The Lion King are testing out the world of VR with 360 experiences of their own.
Increased activity on the Internet gives us invaluable insight into the minds of our audience in the form of analytics and data. Sometimes when I start down this path, people say, "You are going to tell me I have to write a show with a certain number of characters in a certain setting…" If only it were that simple.
Data provides us with a framework for development. When I see a trend forming, It activates my creative mind and spawns ideas. I always think back on the fantastic book Ingenious by Jason Fagone, which confirms there is no such thing as a bad idea. Data may inspire a totally outlandish concept, but in an open environment, this may lead to something brilliant.

The "Joy" of Being Preggers
I looked at GOTG's recent calendar of events and realized just how quickly, and by how much, my life has changed since becoming pregnant. I usually attend Grape Escape, for example, but cutting wine out of my diet makes paying the price tag associated with the event less appealing, so I didn't go this year. I enjoy River Cats' games but there's no longer a need to go on "Thirsty Thursday" nights for the discounted beer. And when I do go to my first game of the season this weekend, I won't be eating the hot dogs either. My guess is you'll spot me in line at Big Spoon yogurt or Merino's Freeze.
I didn't realize how much wine was a key element of my social life, and so it's been an adjustment. We skipped our annual barrel tasting trip to Dry Creek Valley in March, and our wine club shipment last month wasn't nearly as exciting as it once was. We'll save a couple, but I've already seen my husband, friends and family drink a few really good bottles of wine club vino. Sigh. I know someone should enjoy it even if it's not me.
Sleep has become my most favorite thing instead. Staying out past 11 p.m. is nearly impossible, and when I did one night last week while in Chicago for work meetings, I paid for it the next day. I also danced for five songs, but afterwards, my feet, body (and probably my baby too) screamed at me like I'd been out dancing all night. Plus, women don't mind a pregnant friend on the dance floor, but any other guy other than your husband (or partner or baby daddy) will literally move to the other side of the room like you're a leper. I guess that's to make sure they don't "bump" into you, but seriously boys, I'm not so big that you're going to hurt me from a few feet away. Yes, I have literally become the elephant in the room.
And then if my ever-expanding belly isn't enough, there are my taste buds, which I no longer recognize as my own. This has dealt a serious blow to the foodie in me. I gag every time I even smell a hint of asparagus, and the same goes for salmon. These used to make up one of my favorite dinners and I can't go near them! Our grocery bill has also skyrocketed as I've switched to organic – well pretty much everything – fruit, vegetables, milk, yogurt, etc.
I'm extremely jealous of my friends who loved being pregnant. I am NOT one of those lucky ladies. I'm tired, awkward and off balance. My feet are often swollen, and I'm not even in my third trimester yet. And if those things don't deserve some sympathy, my wardrobe has suddenly shrunk immensely. Plus, who wants to spend a fortune on clothes that you're only going to wear for a few months? Speaking of…why can't they make some affordable maternity work clothes? There's loads of casual wear, but it's nearly impossible to find fashionable items to wear to work. And then there's these maternity short shorts everywhere right now for summer which is the last thing I feel like wearing. Thanks for the reminder maternity store.
A friend told me the other day "that this too shall end." Thank goodness! Other than the morning sickness and the passing out and stitches that followed, I've truly been lucky to make it this far, so please don't associate my complaining as ungratefulness. I know I've been extremely fortunate. Plus, there's no time to dwell on what I can no longer do when there's a never ending to do list with baby stuff to register for, a room to decorate and baby classes to take. Plus, I'm still juggling a demanding work schedule, which includes more travel than I'd like.
I still can't hide it though – I'm really looking forward to having the baby (minus the labor) and moving beyond the pregnancy stage. I realize that I may seriously regret putting these comments in writing when I'm even more sleep deprived and struggling to breastfeed, so you reserve the right to say "I told you so."
Anyone else that's pregnant or been pregnant out there, who can remember feeling like their life totally changed before even having the baby? As much as I know the outcome will be worth it, I sometimes feel Dorothy from the Wizard Oz…except she can't fit into her red shoes anymore.

Oh, honey!
Pregnancy is a hellish place to be.
I just want to say "I feel ya", and that it really is all worth it in the end (really, the new beginning).
Sleep deprivation and scabby nipples are worth it too, in hindsight only:)
Lisa Macedo says
I completely understand all of your complaints. I was saying the same thing nearly two years ago while I was pregnant with Logan. However after looking back, and being pregnant again, I realize being pregnant is nothing compared to what you will go through after delivering your baby. I have now learned to enjoy this second pregnancy much more, since it will all be over soon, and yes, you will fit into those red shoes once again.
Lisa says
You both have given me so much to look forward to! Ha ha ha. It's all a learning process, right?
Sharon says
Yes, pregnancy does totally set you up for motherhood by changeing your life in many ways. You'll never be the same, but it's totally worth it! Congratulations!
And lol on the short shorts! PLEASE! Don't be afraid to shell out a few bucks for some classic maternity pieces. *Maybe* you'll get to wear them again… 🙂
Vanessa says
While I haven't been pregnant myself, I can appreciate an honest story and admire your bravery for telling it… Your healthy sense of humor about it all is awesome, too. I know, just like you do, that there are greener pastures ahead…:)

Hebrews 11:8 - By faith Abraham, when called to go to a place he would later receive as his inheritance, obeyed and went, even though he did not know where he was going.
By faith he made his home in the promised land like a stranger in a foreign country; he lived in tents, as did Isaac and Jacob, who were heirs with him of the same promise. For he was looking forward to the city with foundations, whose architect and builder is God.
And by faith even Sarah, who was past childbearing age, was enabled to bear children because she considered him faithful who had made the promise. And so from this one man, and he as good as dead, came descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as countless as the sand on the seashore.
By faith Abraham, when God tested him, offered Isaac as a sacrifice. He who had embraced the promises was about to sacrifice his one and only son, even though God had said to him, "It is through Isaac that your offspring will be reckoned." Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death.
Is there anything else I should say regarding Abraham? He laid a foundation for us. There is even a childhood song regarding Father Abraham and his many sons, I am one of them and so are you...
The last part that the author writes is fascinating, though. Abraham reasoned that God could even raise the dead, and so in a manner of speaking he did receive Isaac back from death. I know no man that would do such a thing. I couldn't. how then did Abraham know that this is what was going to happen? Did he know, or was it only faith in God? Did he maybe know the Lords will that well?
I don't have the answers, but I do know that I should trust the Lord more often, and listen to His voice, in order to ensure that I too get to a point in my walk with Him that I can KNOW.

Again, you can't connect the dots looking forward. You can only connect them looking backwards, so you have to trust that the dots will somehow connect in your future.
You have to trust in something–your gut, destiny, life, karma, whatever–because believing that the dots will connect down the road will give you the confidence to follow your heart, even when it leads you off the well-worn path, and that will make all the difference.
Steve Jobs
Stanford University Commencement Speech 2005
A few months ago, I submitted a post called 'Connecting the Dots to Customized Learning". I am happy to report that finally the dots ARE connecting for me. My quest has taken me to group meetings, websites, individual meetings, trainings, and a fair amount of reading.
In all of this, it has been the people who are leading the way with customized learning and standards-based education who have taught me the most.
Here are some of those key people (listed alphabetically as they are ALL #1s on my list) who were most knowledgeable and most helpful. You would find them helpful too if you decide to connect your own MCL dots.
Jim Hodgkin
Jim is the Supt. in RSU #44. He is probably the first person who introduced me to MCL. He is a true believer, an early adopter, and PASSIONATE about it. He is unafraid, undeterred, and unabashed in his pursuit of systemic change. He is also MOST student-centered. All in all, Jim is one of my heroes.
Linda Laughlin and Lori Lodge
These two educators are the leaders of the Maine Cohort for Customized Learning. I have attended 4 of their meetings now. They welcomed me in even though my unofficial title was "cling-on". This MCCL group is a bit of a phenomenon in my opinion. Jim Hodgkin said it best, "If I have a tough week and go to a MCCL meeting, I feel better immediately. It is so good to be with like-minded people who talk about things that matter" There is a sort of magic here that comes from a new organization struggling to do powerful work. These two women give countless hours to the cause. Their PASSION is on display at every meeting.
The Masterful McSisters (I am changing my name to McEnright)
• Mary Jane McCalmon
Everyone should have an opportunity to learn from Mary Jane McCalmon. She understands systemic change and how school systems work inside out. She also understands customized learning and standards based education. She is deeply involved in this work and also is PASSIONATE about it. She is one of the leaders in the MCCL group and also does masterful consulting, coaching, and facilitating around this work
• Cathy McCue
Cathy is my sister by another mother. She is my GO-TO person for all things standards-based curriculum. She is tireless in her pursuit of implementing a standards-based curriculum in her school system, RSU #44, where she is Asst. Supt. She understands systemic change and pays close attention to it. If there is a better standards-based mousetrap out there that saves teachers time and is highly effective, Cathy is figuring it out, I am sure. She too is PASSIONATE about this work.
• Bea McGarvey
Bea has a brilliant mind and is a brilliant educator. Recently I attended one of her training on customized learning. It was the best 3 hours I have spent in learning all year, possibly in the last five years. She co-authored Inevitable and is deeply committed to customized learning and to all of us here in Maine too. She has a fabulous website http://masscustomizedlearning.com/ where she gives away the store for free, (as my father would say). Is she PASSIONATE about this work? Absolutely! It appears to have become the priority focus of her life's work.
Mike Muir
If you want to have a crash course in Customized Learning and all things systemic change, then spend an hour or so with Mike individually or go to one of his workshops, like I have, and you will come away a changed person (pun intended)! I have said it before and I say it again, GO TO HIS WEBSITE and admire his Lead4Change work, among many other things. Mike is the Renaissance Man of Education in Maine, in my humble opinion. He too is PASSIONATE about his work.http://www.mcmel.org/leadership/
Don Siviski
Don is leading the charge from the DOE side along with our Commissioner Steve Bowen. Customized Learning consumes him, as it is highly student centered. He is tireless in his promotion of it. If you have a chance to hear him talk on this subject, as I did recently, you will see, feel, and hear his PASSION for this work. Don cares DEEPLY about it.
So that is the line-up thus far on the people who are leaders in this brave new MCL world. I will warn you though, if you hang around them long enough, their passion is contagious!
Here is my newest dot to connect? What role could and should the middle level play in this effort? I am thinking that the middle level has a LOT to offer. Anyone out there have any thoughts?

Black Sabbath React to Bill Ward's 'Statement'
Black Sabbath are taking the high road after Bill Ward's recent lengthy statement about his non-participation in their reunion.
The group issued a statement late Thursday that read, "We have decided not to make any detailed comment on Bill's latest statement. There are two sides to every story. We have been working hard at rehearsals making excellent progress after Tony's treatments and we have engaged a substitute drummer for the forthcoming shows. See you at Download."
In his statement earlier this week, Ward revealed that he and the other members of Black Sabbath had failed to come to terms on a contract for the reunion. The drummer felt that it was important that he stand up for himself where the band was concerned, but felt horrible that he was letting the fans down as a result. "I know in my heart, I couldn't have done these concerts by agreeing to the terms suggested," explained Ward.
He also added that he had been offered a chance to "minimally" play, while sharing the drumkit with another drummer during Black Sabbath sets, but was not willing to sit back and watch another musician play while he was only allowed on three songs.
Ward revealed that he learned about the band's summer plans through an advertisement for the shows, and realized then that a signable contract was not going to be presented. He concluded, "I didn't want to make this decision, but I have to be transparent and honest." As for future work with the band, he says he still has an open mind and a willingness to negotiate a "signable" contract.

Goodwood Festival of Salt
This year's Goodwood Festival of Speed will take place June 22-24. We're excited to report that we will have people on hand for this amazing weekend of historic racing demonstrations and we're looking forward to getting lots of pics to share with all of you. With this year's theme being, 'Spark of Genius – Breaking Records, Pushing Boundaries', it should be an extra special year. And the Festival organizers have just released info about another special gathering being held on the adjacent
JCB Dieselmax honored with Dewar Trophy
Along with the LeMans sports racers from Audi and Peugeot, the JCB Dieselmax is probably the best poster child for how well a diesel can perform at the highest levels of motorsports. You may remember the JCB Dieselmax, as it was the streamliner that set a new Land Speed Record (LSR) for diesel cars last August by going more than 350 mph. We covered it quite extensively, as it was a pretty amazing feat. And we're not the only ones who took notice. The Dieselmax just won a fairly prestigious award

That was fast. I guess I shouldn't be surprised.
1906 steam powered car land speed record is in serious danger
When you think of steam-powered travel you think of ... going 200 miles per hour in a rocket car, right? Good, because that's exactly what a team in Britain is trying to do next year as part of the British Steam Car Challenge. The team got good news recently when Slough Heat & Power in Berkshire announced they would help the team with its initial trials by providing steam from a specially-built gantry. The team has proved, mathematically, that 200 mph is possible, and they're designing the I
Aerodynamic JCB Dieselmax broke land speed record without wind tunnel testing
A few weeks ago, the JCB Dieselmax broke the world land-speed record for a diesel-powered car. For good reason, the posts we wrote on the subject (see below) were quite popular, so I know there's going to be at least some interest in the technical news that the Dieselmax was built using Ansys Technology. Ansys has been making simulation software since 1970, and the Dieselmax's aerodynamic style was designed using the company's Fluent computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software package without an
JCB Dieselmax breaks own land-speed record, shoots to 328 mph
That's one fast diesel. And the JCB Dieselmax is even faster now that it has taken the FIA international land speed record for a diesel-powered vehicle with a speed of 328.767 mph at the Bonneville Salt Flats, Utah yesterday. Just last week, the JCB Dieselmax's world speed record was 317.021. The Dieselmax is propelled by two Ricardo JCB444-LSR engines.
JCB Dieselmax wins Bonneville speed record with 317 mph measured-mile
No faster diesel-powered vehicle exists than the JCB Dieselmax, now that the needle-sharp vehicle has broken the diesel land speed record at the Bonneville Salt Flats with a measured-mile speed of 317 mph Thursday. The JCB Dieselmax did two runs of 308 and 325 mph, giving an average (and record establishing) speed of 317.021. The vehicle's engine was developed by Ricardo, and Ricardo director of diesel engineering Ian Penny said, "Establishing a new Bonneville course record in excess of 300 mph

What have changed in 30 years of spam?
Spam celebrates anniversary this year: 30 years have gone since the day a clever manager sent 400 email messages to potential customers inviting them to a presentation. Luckily, the name of the manager is being kept in silence; otherwise many would go on a headhunt to punish the one that gave a start to spam over the internet. The guy didn't have any bad intentions and the spam message was much different from spam we know today.
The unwanted messages that advertise certain products and services are probably the most known. The other type of spam brings malware in form of attachments and links to infected websites. And the third type combines the methods of latter two types. The word spam usually brings negative emotions; however, not every unsolicited email message can be called spam. Many websites use email messages to reach subscribers; many companies use email addresses of their clients to inform the latter about new products. Email address is a required field on many registration forms; if it is used for sending information, a person can only blame himself for sharing the address. Not everyone that floods your mailbox with a spam is a real spammer. There are computer parasites that can use one's email secretly to spread rubbish.
There is one distinct difference between 30-years-old spam and spam as we know it today: unsolicited messages were evolving and gradually became much more creative than the old ones. Spam once was an advertising technique (Viagra, online poker, plastic surgery, etc.); later it became a tool for many different scams. Nigerian scam, UK lottery and fake tax rebates are just a few to mention. The third type of spam is probably the most dangerous as it combines tactics of both type one and type two. The nowadays spam is complicated because it is a part of a bigger scam. Unwanted email messages are masked to look like expected letters: notification from online bank, newsletter from reputable website, a message from a relative – wouldn't you open a message like that? Many ways are used to mislead the recipient and make him download useless software, pay for dubious services and give away his personal information.
Spam is more dangerous today than it ever was before. Although people are more computer-literate and avoid suspicious messages, spam is more creative, more targeted and more complicated, therefore it attracts more victims. It was 400 email messages the first time and the poor guy entered every email address manually. And now there are thousands of bots collecting email addresses online and sending spam. The number of spam messages increased enormously through the 3 decades. The exact number varies on different researcher, but approximately 80 to 95 percent of email messages are spam.

The outpouring of community responses from across the district on the developing Local Plan has delayed key Harrogtate Borough Council meetings.
Although the Plan is still scheduled for formal publication in January next year, the District Development Committee meeting, scheduled for November 2, will now take place on 16 November and a full Council meeting is set for December.
The results of the Plan's additional consultation period is due to be presented to councillors at these meetings. However the period resulted in a high volume of people contacting HBC and because of that, the meetings have been rescheduled.
The council say however that the Local Plan remains on track.
Cabinet Member for Planning for HBC, Coun Rebecca Burnett said: "We can confirm the dates have been moved. This is mainly because we have had such large amounts of responses, and part of the issue is we are taking more time to work through them.
"It is challenging and we have had to bring in extra resources, but the extra work has meant being delayed."
She added:"I understand many people may be upset but it proves we knew we would get a lot of responses and that it would be a lot of work.
"If we had extended the additional consultation period we would be looking at even further delays. We have had to delay some matters but aside from that we are on track."
For residents challenging potential sites for housing, the news is concerning - despite the unchanged formal publication date.
Chris Chelton, Chairman of Keep Green Hammerton Green said: "We are waiting to find out where they will go with the new settlement, as I am sure other groups also wanting to see what sites are being included.
"We are on tenterhooks and looking to the committee and full Council in December to see what is decided for Green Hammerton."
He added: "They knew this consultation was to end in August and it is a major issue this has happened. That team should have the resources it needs, it was always guaranteed that they were going to get that level of response from around the area with plans like this."
Once the document has been formally published, the Local Plan will be put before the Secretary of State by next summer.

Class teachers play a pivotal role in providing care and nurture of children within a strong pastoral system. Teachers are adults to whom children go to for guidance and support, and pupils' personal and social development is further reinforced through PSHE lessons.
Class teachers are also House Leaders and this enables them to create a 'family' structure within the House with children from Reception age to Year 6 which encourages friendships to develop and mutual respect to thrive.
The close working partnership between parents and class teachers helps children to understand that there is a shared pastoral responsibility between home and school. Class teachers make themselves available to parents at the start and end of each day and the homework diary allows good communication to be maintained.

Neitzsche & Buddha Quotes
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you.
Frederich Nietzsche
Holding on to anger is like grasping a hot coal with the intent of throwing it at someone else; you are the one who gets burned.
Not dissimilar and worth remembering. (also a bit hard to remember in the "heat of battle").

Deloitte named a leader in leadership development consulting services
Press release
New York, 2 October 2013 – Deloitte Touche Tohmatsu Limited (DTTL) announced today that Kennedy has named Deloitte a global leader in Leadership Development Consulting services in their Leadership Development Consulting Market Report 2013.
Kennedy's Leadership Development Consulting Market report examines the strengths and weaknesses of the major providers including those from the strategy and operations, multi-services, and HR consulting segments. Additionally, the report examines the business, geographic, and industry drivers of client spending on leadership development consulting.
The interplay of these drivers is illustrated in case studies that underscore the challenges of scale and scope for these providers. The report notes "Deloitte differentiates on research-driven leadership consulting, a position strengthened by its recent acquisition of Bersin and Associates."
Simon Holland, DTTL Strategic Change Leader, comments: "Deloitte's thought leadership and research, most notably that of Bersin by Deloitte, outpaces its peers in quantity and quality. Bersin's leadership development practice generates market-leading benchmarks, methodologies, and frameworks, including the leadership maturity model, that provide a compelling fact basis for designing effective solutions."
Key Findings
- Deloitte named a Kennedy Vanguard Leader based on breadth and depth of capabilities, one of only two leaders shown as advancing.
- "Firms such as Deloitte, Mercer, and Korn/Ferry International are gaining ground as global providers in a market that historically has been dominated by DDI and Hay Group.

I'm having a real moment today. I had the same moment yesterday as well as the day before and I have a sneaking suspicion that it will return tomorrow. I'm having a string of these moments of intense gratitude. I'm feeling insanely grateful for my life and I thought in the spirit of Thanksgiving (Hallo-whatttt?! Give me turkey), I'd write about it.
I'm grateful to own my own business and for the fact that complete strangers want to pay me to do what I love. I'm sorry, but what kind of dream world am I living in? I've wanted to be a business owner since my early days of barbies and dress-up. As a kid, I subscribed to magazines like Real Simple, and Martha Stewart Living. Instead of watching Saturday morning cartoons, I flipped the channel to watch Martha in all her glory (pre-prison, ya'll!) I've always had a box/drawer/closet/room stuffed to the brim with craft supplies from various hobbies I've picked up (knitting, painting, drawing, sewing, scrapbooking, fashion design, making miniatures, doll-making, paper-mache, calligraphy, jewelry-making, beading, weaving, baking, and so many more). I'm grateful to my parents for funding all that shit and allowing me to create with my hands rather than rot behind a TV screen.
I'm also grateful to my parents for pushing me and never allowing me to settle for being average. I'm grateful to them for believing in me even when I do things that are nontraditional like going to art school to get a marketing degree or quitting a stable job to be a florist with almost no floral experience under my belt. Even when they give me sideways glances I know they believe in me and will do anything in their power to help me succeed.
I'm grateful to the internet for existing and allowing me a platform to spread my ideas to people I might not have otherwise reached. My years of blogging have taught me how to connect with strangers through this new format and it has also opened up my eyes to a world of creatives bringing incredible ideas to the table every single day. The inspiration is overwhelming and also insanely motivational.
I'm grateful for my youth and my lifestyle. I love living in a girly apartment in the middle of a city surrounded by insanely kind and talented friends. I love the late night laughs, spontaneous beers, crafty nights, Gilmore Girls Netflix binges, stories about awful blind dates, and shared meals with these people. I'm so grateful for the ability to wake up every day and choose how I spend my time. I'm in love with this life I live. My heart is so full of gratitude and love for everyone and everything. I love that I am a woman and I have the options to dress how I please, say whatever comes to mind, work and support myself, go to school, and be autonomous. I know this is not an option for ladies in certain parts of the world and I do not take this opportunity lightly.
Recently these feelings of gratitude have had my heart so full I'm pretty sure I'm going to burst. And I know this is just the beginning of a long road. So, to those who believed in me, thank you. And to those who did not believe in me, I want to thank you too. You are the fuel to my fire and are just as responsible for these incredible days as anyone else in my life. I have some exciting projects in the works and I can't wait to share my life and dreams with you as it all unfolds.

Fresh from their maiden voyage (The Darling Dahlias and the Cucumber Tree, 2010, etc.), members of the Darling Dahlia Garden Club solve a second crime.
In the early years of the Depression, life in the small town of Darling, Ala., is a struggle even for gardeners who raise their own food. So Dahlia stalwarts Liz Lacy, Verna Tidwell and Bessie Bloodworth are grateful for the diversion provided by two new ladies who've moved into the home of the reclusive Miss Hamer. One is Miss Hamer's niece Nona Jean Jamison, whom Verna recognizes as Lorelei LaMotte, the naughty half of the Ziegfeld Follies Naughty and Nice Sisters. Liz has her own problems when she learns that her overbearing mother has lost her house in the stock market crash and is planning on moving in with Liz. The ladies are sure there's something up when Nona Jean goes to the beauty parlor and has her flowing platinum locks bobbed and died brown. A little judicious snooping reveals Nona's connection with the notorious Al Capone. When one of Capone's henchmen arrives in town looking for Nona and her friend, who's remained sequestered in her room, the Dahlias know they're in for trouble. These flowers of Southern womanhood are a lot tougher than they appear, however, and they have a plan to rid Darling of the hit man.
Not the most difficult mystery to solve, but still literate and well-researched, with recipes and cleaning tips appended.

Never Forget: Sybrina Fulton Talks About First Holiday Without Trayvon And More
From ESSENCE
Ten months after her son was killed, Sybrina Fulton, Trayvon Martin's mother, says she's ready for justice to be served in 2013. She spoke with ESSENCE.com about her first holiday season without Trayvon, her thoughts on the Sandy Hook Elementary School shootings, and her hopes for 2013:
This year has been bittersweet. The bitter part is that I lost my baby boy. The sweet part has been the show of support that we have received from our community and from the world. We are thankful.
This is our first holiday season without Trayvon, and I have to admit, I'm having a difficult time. I'm an emotional rollercoaster. Trayvon loved the holidays, especially Christmas and Thanksgiving. He always looked forward to those holidays. But while I am sad I'm reminded that I have another son that I'm trying to help get through not having his younger brother around.
Sybrina continues to ve a very strong woman. You can read the rest of the touching message over at ESSENCE.

Many Rh negative women are coming forward with their experiences of having been given the Anti D vaccination when they were pregnant. Many are saying that their children have autism and all kinds of other health problems, that they feel were caused by having this injection in the first place. In some cases it wasn't even necessary, as both the Mother and Father were Rh negative.
So finding the following medical article claiming that all women who are Rh negative should be given this injection is very worrying indeed.
SS5-3: Rh Hemolytic Disease of the Newborn: A Major Public Health Problem.
Alvin Zipursky MD, FRCP; Vinod Paul MD, PhD
Background: Rh hemolytic disease of newborn infants is preventable by administration of anti Rh (D) gamma globulin to Rh negative women post-partum; as a result Rh disease has been virtually eradicated from developed countries.
Objectives: To provide evidence that Rh isoimmunization and consequently Rh hemolytic disease of the newborn occurs in low income countries.
Methods: The evidence has been obtained by determining the annual total distribution of anti-Rh (D) gamma globulin world-wide. That information combined with data on total births and prevalence of Rh negativity provides indirect evidence of the total number of women who have received anti-Rh (D) gamma globulin and thereby the number who have not received protection.
Results: It is estimated that annually over one million women did not receive anti-Rh gamma globulin and as a result over 100,000 babies are born with Rh hemolytic disease resulting in stillbirths, neonatal deaths or bilirubin induced brain damage (kernicterus). In many countries Rh negative women are not identified. One approach to solving this problem has been in the state of Bihar, India where there is now a program to determine Rh groups of 34 million girls, ages 0-18.
Conclusion and implications for public health practice: This serious public health problem is preventable and programs should be developed for the prevention of Rh is immunization in all women at risk and thereby the eradication of Rh hemolytic disease of newborn infants.
