A judge condemned the friends and family of a convicted pedophile last month after they sought to excuse the man's behaviour by blaming his victim.
The 32-year-old Chilliwack man, who can't be named because of a publication ban on information that could identify the victim, had pleaded guilty to sexual interference of a person under the age of 16.
According to the decision, which was recently posted online, the man-who has a long criminal record-repeatedly had sex with his 13-year-old stepdaughter over the course of several months.
While family, community members and two pastors filed nine letters of support on behalf of the man, Judge Gary Cohen said he was disregarding seven of the letters because they suggested the man was the victim.
"These letters should not have been presented to the court," Cohen wrote.
Speaking about one letter that labeled the complainant as "promiscuous," Cohen said such a view ignores the fact that "much of what the complainant learned about life was from this stepfather."
Cohen said it also disregarded the fact that the defendant admitted to entering the complainant's bedroom and "abusing her in her own room." And even if that had not been the case, Cohen stressed that it would not have been a mitigating factor.
Another letter, Cohen said, "purports to be from a pair of pastors" who said the girl tricked her stepfather.
"It is my hope that these people are not allowed to minister to young people as they clearly have a complete misunderstanding of brain development in adolescents," Cohen wrote about the pastors.
Rather than helping the defendant, Cohen said the letters gave him cause for imposing a harsher sentence on the man.
"The one thing that I take from these letters is that they are from people who excuse the defendant and place blame on the child," Cohen wrote. "If these are his support people, then he does not have the support of good people around him. Having good family and community support is often mentioned in the case law as grounds for imposing a lesser sentence and therefore could have been a mitigating factor in sentencing. Instead, these letters tend to prove that the defendant has the sort of support that excuses this sort of criminal behaviour."
Cohen noted the abuse has "had a substantial impact on the complainant: she has twice attempted suicide; she has lost trust and innocence; she has lost her home; and she has even lost her family."
While the defendant apologized in court, Cohen said he considered the man's contrition in context of information laid out in a pre-sentence report that stated the stepfather minimized the impact of his actions on his victim.
When it came to imposing a sentence, Cohen did not go lightly on the defendant.
Citing the victim's age, the duration of the abuse and the fact that it occurred in a home where a young person is supposed to feel safe, Cohen sentenced the defendant to four years in prison with no credit for any time previously served.

Yield: 12 buns
Prep Time: 2 hrs 40 mins
Total Time: 3 hrs 15 mins
Recent Activity:
2 1/4 teaspoonsactive dry yeast
2 tablespoonsgranulated sugar
1 cupmilk, warmed
4 tablespoonsunsalted butter, melted, plus more for buttering
3large egg yolks
2 tablespoonshoney, preferably orange blossom or clover
1 teaspoonpure vanilla extract
3 1/2 cupsplus 3 tablespoons all-purpose flour, plus more for dusting
1 teaspoonkosher salt
1/2 cuphoney, preferably orange blossom or clover
1/2 cuppacked light brown sugar
4 tablespoonsunsalted butter, plus more for brushing
1 1/2 cupspecans (6 ounces), coarsely chopped
3/4 cuppacked light brown sugar
1 tablespooncinnamon
6 tablespoonsunsalted butter, softened
MAKE THE DOUGH: In the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle, combine the yeast with a pinch of granulated sugar and the milk and let stand until foamy, 5 minutes. Add the remaining sugar, the 4 tablespoons of melted butter, and the egg yolks, honey and vanilla; mix until blended. Mix in the flour and salt. Switch to the dough hook and knead at medium speed until the dough forms a smooth ball, 4 minutes.
Brush a large bowl with butter. Add the dough and brush the top with butter. Cover and let stand in a warm place until doubled in volume, about 1 hour.
MEANWHILE, MAKE THE TOPPING: Butter a 9-by-13-inch glass baking dish. In a medium saucepan, melt the honey with the brown sugar, and 4 tablespoons of butter over moderate heat until the sugar is dissolved, about 1 minute. Pour the hot honey mixture into the prepared baking dish and sprinkle with the pecans.
MAKE THE FILLING: In a bowl, mix the sugar with the cinnamon. On a lightly floured work surface, roll out the dough to a 12-by-18-inch rectangle. Spread the butter over the dough, leaving a 1-inch border all around. Sprinkle the dough with the cinnamon sugar. Starting at a long side, roll the dough into a log and turn it seam side down. Cut the dough into 12 slices. Arrange the slices, cut side up, in the baking dish. Cover and let stand in a warm place until the buns double in volume, about 1 hour.
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Bake the honey buns for about 35 minutes, until golden brown. Remove from the oven and let stand for 5 minutes. Invert the buns onto a baking sheet and let cool slightly. Serve warm.

DHEA, dehydroepiandrosterone, is a natural hormone produced from cholesterol by the adrenal glands.
DHEA is said to "the mother of all hormones".Over 1/2 of testosterone is produced from DHEA.
DHEA has the power to enhance the quality of a baby boomers life
The most abundant hormone in a 25 year old mans body is DHEA!
DHEA levels decrease with age, people above middle age can experience incredible results with DHEA Supplementation.
Dr. William Regelson, University of Virginia School of Medicine, reports that DHEA is "one of the best biochemical bio-markers for chronologic age."
Natural DHEA production peaks in our mid-20s.
Check out our amazon.com stores .. a "specialty store" for each of the nutrients below ... our recommended supplements in each nutrient category.:
Supplements supplement a complete diet .. not replace a complete diet.
Women and men respond equally to DHEA.
In one of the first DHEA research projects in England [Bulbrook, 1962, 1971] discovered that DHEA was abnormally low in women who developed breast cancer.
The most abundant hormone in a 25 year old mans body is DHEA!
Dr. William Regelson, University of Virginia School of Medicine reports that DHEA is "one of the best biochemical bio-markers for chronologic age.
+ DHEA supplementation results in an almost immediate improved sense of physical well-being.
DHEA was first identified as a unique hormone in the early 60's by French researcher Dr. Emile-Etienne Baulieu.
If animal results hold true with primates, supplemental DHEA may prevent disease, reduce mortality, and extend lifespan in humans.
Another huge benefit of DHEA is its ability to help the body burn calories for energy rather than store them as fat. DHEA blocks an enzyme named G6PD (glucose-6-phosphate-dehydrogenase) that is not only essential for fat tissue production but also promotes cancer cell growth
By 1980 an impressive amount of research had been done on this mother hormone.
DHEA has multiple AntiAging properties + it counteracts the stress hormone, Cortisol.
DHEA reduces the bodies production of glucose-6-phosphate dehydrogenase (G6PDH), an enzyme that breaks down glucose.
The increased utilization of glucose = increased energy.
In several independent studies DHEA in rodent carcinogenesis and tumor induction, DHEA has preventative effects.
DHEA was often low as much as nine years prior to diagnosis of the cancer.
Of the 27 / 5000 women followed in the study, developed cancer.
A disproportionate % of the 27 had abnormally low levels of DHEA.
Another study investigating the anti-cancer properties of DHEA, with mice Schwartz (1979), identified powerful cancer protective effects in mice on a DHEA supplementation.
Elizabeth Barrett-Conor, MD, charted DHEA levels in 242 men, ages 50-79, for twelve years. She initially reported that 100mcg/dl increase in the DHEA sulfate level was associated with a 36% reduction in death from cardiovascular disease.
Neuronal degenerative or brain conditions occur most frequently when DHEA levels are lowest,
University of California, San Francisco researchers found that DHEA levels are lower in people who are depressed, and supplements of 30-90mg per day reportedly improved their state.
Much of DHEA's reputation as a wonder hormone comes from experiments in which mice or rats were fed daily doses. Such studies have shown that DHEA can prevent or delay the onset of cancer, "hardening" of the arteries, lethal viral infections, lowered immunity, obesity, and diabetes. But what works in rodents doesn't necessarily work in humans
The Biologic Role of Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA), edited by Mohammed Kalimi and William Regelson [1990]. Is the definitive research source.
Testosterone replacement therapy may help elderly men with mild Alzheimer's disease. The University of California, Los Angeles team found that replacement hormone therapy significantly improved quality of life for Alzheimer's patients.
Age is the most critical risk factor for Alzheimer's Disease.
Alzheimer's Disease incidence by age: 5 % of all person above 65 years of age are diagnosed, about 20 % of those over 80 years and about 30 % of those over 90 suffer from Alzheimer's disease.
The risk of developing the disease diagnosis doubles about every 5 years over age 65.
Very few persons under 60 have a diagnosis of Alzheimers. The Under lying pathological condition can be present for years before clinical diagnosis.

American Society of Safety Engineers Urge Florida to Enact Workplace Safety Protection for Public Workers
Tallahassee, FL (March 13, 2007) — American Society of Safety Engineers' (ASSE) professional member and chemist Edwin Granberry, Jr., of Florida, commended the U.S. Chemical Safety and Hazard Investigation Board (CSB) for bringing attention to the state's lack of occupational safety and health protection for public sector employees and the deadly results that can occur in the release today of their 'Investigation Report of the Methanol Tank Explosion and Fire at the Bethune Point Wastewater Treatment Plant'.
"We support CSB's recommendations to the governor and legislature," Granberry said. "A committee should be established to determine the best approach for the governor and the legislature to work together to determine how best to protect our public sector workers now."
ASSE supports the CSB recommendation that legislation be enacted requiring state agencies and each political subdivision, such as counties and municipalities, of Florida to implement policies, practices, procedures, including chemical hazards, covering the workplace safety and health of Florida public employees that are at least as effective as OSHA
"We urge Florida state officials to provide the same level of workplace safety protection that other U.S. workers have under the federal Occupational Safety and Health Act," Granberry said. "Florida state and municipal workers do not have the same protection that other workers do. The people who protect us, who make sure our streets and roads are safe, who make prisons work, post-disaster workers, all of them deserve the same workplace safety and health protections that private sector workers have. Yet, these protections were removed in 2000."
At the Bethune Point Wastewater Treatment Plant in Daytona Beach, FL, on January 11, 2006, two employees died and one was severely burned after a worker using a cutting torch accidentally ignited vapors coming from the methanol storage tank vent, the CSB reported. An explosion inside the tank followed, causing the attached piping to fail and release about 3,000 gallons of methanol, which burned.
The plant is operated by the City of Daytona Beach.
"It is a tragedy that it took the deaths of two Florida public servants to bring attention to this issue, but ASSE commends the CSB for its thorough work in investigating this explosion and bringing attention to the fact that the lack of occupational safety and health coverage for public sector employees contributed significantly to these deaths," Granberry said.
Granberry noted the plant went through several changes that affected workplace safety in a negative way once the workplace safety coverage was eliminated. Those changes included reducing safety and health safeguards, dramatically reducing safety meetings and training – a key component to workplace safety, and not identifying and addressing workplace hazards.

ASSE, 3/13/07, FL Explosion, page 2
"This is not just a Florida issue, but in the U.S. it is estimated that 8.5 million state and local government employees are not protected by OSHA safety and health rules and regulations," Granberry said. "This is a major issue of concern to ASSE and its more than 30,000 occupational safety, health and environmental professional members. All workers should be protected."
Granberry has 48 years of experience in the chemical process/explosive safety operations field from manufacturing nitroglycerin and high energy rocket propellants, processing orange concentrate and cattle feed, and serving as launch safety officer for the Mercury, Gemini, and Apollo manned space launches at the U.S. Air Force Guided Missiles Range at Cape Canaveral. He has served the state of Florida in many capacities including gubernatorial appointments to the Toxic Substances Advisory Council and the State Emergency Response Commission.
"I have learned in my long career that employees are better protected when there is a standard that employers know they must meet," Granberry said.
Founded in 1911, ASSE is the oldest and largest professional safety society and is committed to protecting people, property and the environment. It's more than 30,000 occupational safety, health and environmental professional members manage, supervise, research and consult on safety, health, transportation and environmental issues in all industries, government, labor and education.

If you love learning and want to get involved, Rhodes is the perfect place for you. At least it has been for me.
You don't expect to find a great business department at a liberal arts college, but my business/economics bridge major has been the ideal preparation for my lifetime dream of starting and running my own business. Most of the professors have real-world experience and strong connections, and they love to help students land great internships. I spent last summer with Stephens, Inc., an investment banking firm in Little Rock, which I liked so much I could happily spend a career there. Professor Pittman is also helping check out opportunities on Wall Street.
There are some experiences you know will be life-changing ,and spending six weeks in Oxford my junior year as a part of the European Studies program was one of them. At Oxford we studied the classics in history, philosophy, and literature. Then we toured the Eastern European countries, visiting the sites we read about at Oxford. My friends and I kept saying to ourselves, "We will never forget this." We haven't.
I know I will not forget many things about my life here—being part of my fraternity, spending sophomore year as a residence hall adviser, rowing for the club crew team. Mostly it's being part of a community, almost like having another family. Plus, I think I got a better education than I would have gotten at an Ivy.

Both the Green Bay Mens and Womens basketball teams used strong finishes to defeat Horizon League rivals on Saturday. In the afternoon, Kiefer Sykes made several big plays and scored a team high 16 points in a 68-62 victory over Detroit. Green Bay rebounded from a tough, double overtime loss to Wright State on Thursday to take down the second place team in the Horizon. Green Bay improves to 13-12 overall and 7-5 in conference play.
The Green Bay women led in-state rival UW Milwaukee by just 2 at halftime but pulled away late for a 64-49 victory, their 14th in a row. Lydia Bauer and Stephanie Sension each scored 14 points for the Phoenix women, now 19-2 overall and still perfect at 9-0 in the Horizon League.

Economists have long been in love with this simple argument. They have since the eighteenth century taken the argument a crucial and dramatic step further: that is, they have deduced something from it, namely, Free trade is neat.
If each deal between you & the supermarket, and the supermarket & Smith, and Smith & Jones, and so forth is betterment-producing (a little or a lot: we're not talking quantities here), then (note the "then": we're talking deduction here) free trade between the entire body of French people and the entire body of English people is betterment-producing. Therefore (note the "therefore") free trade between any two groups is neat.
The economist notes that if all trades are voluntary they all have some gain. So free trade in all its forms is neat. For example, a law restricting who can get into the pharmacy business is a bad idea, not neat at all, because free trade is good, so non-free trade is bad. Protection of French workers is bad, because free trade is good. And so forth, to literally thousands of policy conclusions.

Dancer, choreographer, and certified Pilates instructor Alisa Schillinger fell in love with dance as a high-school student—a love that she now passes on to the students at Axis Of Movement. Teaching dance styles including hip hop, breakdance, tap, ballet, jazz, and lyrical, Schillinger and her staff help students to master leaps, turns, taps, and splits. When not pirouetting through the studio, Alisa also teaches Pilates, and an on-staff massage therapist helps keep bodies limber in ways that have nothing to do with spelling out YMCA with your arms.
For more than two decades, Jesters Dinner Theatre has entertained audiences and their rumbling stomachs with tasty meals served during live, on-stage performances. Carousel, created by famed musical manufacturers Rodgers & Hammerstein, takes place in turn-of-the-19th-century Maine, where a once-carefree carousel barker with a pregnant wife becomes unemployed. To make some quick cash and avoid the disapproval of musical-theatre fans, the barker assists in a robbery and, after being caught, takes his own life. When he is allowed to return to earth for one day 15 years later, he meets his daughter and tries to fill her and her mother with love from beyond the grave. For Friday and Saturday shows, dinner starts at 6 p.m., and the curtain rises at 7:45 p.m. Meals start at 12:30 p.m. on Sundays, with a 2:15 p.m. curtain time.

Every performer has a different goal. Recognizing this, the teaching staff at Academy of the Arts-Denver (each a professional in his or her respective field) designs all of their lesson plans around their students' individual goals. These highly personalized plans shape the approach to the school's age-specific, professional and recreational group acting and vocal classes. The teaching staff also uses their 75 years of accumulated experience to focus on talent development, whether students want to break into the business, or perform for the joy of it. Private lessons help build proficiency in guitar, bass, drums, and music production. Though lessons focus on specific technical training, the teachers encourage creative experimentation no matter the genre. Former students have established careers in TV, Broadway, Film, and Music. As they learn, Academy of the Arts-Denver's students are also encouraged to take part in rehearsals and performances.

Non-Profit Success: Strengthening and Sustaining Organizational Achievement
March 5, 2014 @ 12:00 pm – 1:00 pm
EVAW InternationalEvent website
|The key to the success of any non-profit organization begins with effective leadership and a strong board of directors. The board of directors serves as the business arm of the organization responsible for ensuring that their vision, mission and bottom line is achieved. Today, non-profit organizations are challenged with the reality of operating during difficult economic times impacting program services, fund development, recruitment of professional staff and overall program operations. Executive Directors often wear multiple hats in their quest to effectively and strategically manage the day-to-day operations of the organization. Although board members are generally not involved in the day-to-day aspects of managing an organization, it is essential that they are engaged as a partner in this collaborative effort to ensure its success which must include developing a well thought out strategic plan that will help prepare and guide the organization through the often transitional and challenging times. This webinar is designed for executive directors, chief executive officers, financial officers, treasurers, program administrators, victim service professionals and board members of non-profit or community-based organizations.

That sounded desperate didn't it? [:D]
Well I posted on the experienced board hoping I could get some answers to my questions regarding BP going up early in a pregnancy and after two previous pregnancies with Pre-E. I'm thinking that this forum might be a better place to post though. So, my post is included here but I'm editing it so that it's a bit shorter!
Thanks in advance for reading boy do I need someone to understand.
First, a little history: My first full pregnancy (I had an early miscarriage previously) ended at 37 wks after a three day stay in the hospital with pre-eclampsia and increased pressures. I was induced and had my sweet little boy naturally. While he was born with a rare disease - that was hereditary and I don't beleive he actually suffered any effects from the Pre-E. At five he has a rare disease that has taken a questionable amount of his vision, with glaucoma, he has siezures and is autistic and still has global developmental delays as well. he's my little ray of sunshine and his smile would melt pure ice.
My second full pregnancy ended in my 33rd week after a week in the hospital with pre-eclampsia. Increased pressures and horrendous headaches with some other stuff and I was induced. But my placenta abrupted because of eratic and high pressures (?) and my second son was delivered via emergency c-section. He spent two weeks in NICU and came home as a relatively healthy little guy. He has had a range of major developmental delays and mild PVL diagnosed but unconfirmed through second opinion. He still has speech and some motor delays and is three years old and an ornery little red-headed wonder if I do say so myself.
I am now 16 weeks into my third pregnancy and am pretty concerned - as this is considered a high-risk pregnancy already because of other health factors I have. My pressures have already risen - first by 20/10 points but at my appt with the neuro today they were up to 160/90 and finally lowered to 150/80 - which is still 30/10 higher than my normal (which is I guess no longer my normal during pregnancy huh?)
I don't understand why my pressures are already rising when I am not even midway through my pregnancy. Has this happened to others? What happened? How did your pregnancy end - pre-eclamptic - eclamptic? Did you have more severe problems because of early onset? I should mention they are thinking I might (BIG MIGHT) be having small siezures already at this point - but ongoing from before my pregnancy (just now being investigated and possibly diagnosed, testing starts next week ) - what role, if any, might this also have on further complications, does anyone know? And also , severe migraines with horrible secondary headaches constantly - is this a big deal? I heard even migraines are fairly common in first and second trimester of pregnancy.
Sorry so many questions but my OB said I am more than likely headed towards pre-eclampsia this time and I am scared.
Thanks and feel free to respond to the forum and/or to my email addy: email@example.com
Thanks for reading this!
Mom to two special boys and baby #3 on the way.

MIAMI, Oct. 9, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Less than a year away from one of the world's most anticipated sports events, Discovery en Espanol treats its audience to two original series that feature soccer through the Discovery lens: FUTBOL 360: JUGADAS MAESTRAS and ACCESO EXCLUSIVO: PACHUCA. Both series premiere Thursday, October 24 at 11PM E/ 8PM P and 11:30PM E/ 8:30PM P, respectively.
(Logo: http://photos.prnewswire.com/prnh/20130221/MM64644LOGO )
All eight episodes of FUTBOL 360: JUGADAS MAESTRAS, airing Thursdays at 11PM E/8PM P, feature accomplished Latin American soccer players, including Bruno Marioni, Juan Pablo Rodriguez, Pablo De Blasis and Christian Gimenez. Together with a team of biomechanics experts, they take part in an interactive study designed especially for Discovery en Espanol to reconstruct some of the game's most spectacular and surprising plays. Free kicks, tricks, penalty kicks, movement without the ball, bicycle kicks, dribbling, headers and spectacular goalie saves are just some of the plays featured in the first season of the series.
In each episode, a professional soccer player is matched up with an athlete from a different sport followed by an amateur soccer player in a variety of measurable strength challenges, all filmed in high definition and with high-speed cameras. Each test is conducted on an obstacle course outfitted with monitoring and data gathering equipment that is designed to demonstrate the abilities that distinguish soccer players from other athletes. Visually spectacular and with cutting-edge scientific technology, FUTBOL 360: JUGADAS MAESTRAS takes a new, surprising approach to the world's most popular sport in the best Discovery en Espanol style.
Soccer is also the subject of the original production ACCESO EXCLUSIVO, a behind-the-scenes look at the Mexican soccer team Club de Futbol Pachuca. Back for a second season, ACCESO EXCLUSIVO: PACHUCA goes beyond the playing field and inside the daily life of the popular team as it prepares for the 2013-2014 championship season at its training facilities in Pachuca and Acapulco. The series follows the players as they work out, train, undergo medical exams, strategize, socialize with their teammates, and, finally, are selected for the starting lineup or the bench.
The six-part series, airing Thursdays at 11:30PM E/8:30PM P, incorporates 3D animation and graphics to illustrate plays, techniques and on-field innovations, showing how science and technology have contributed to the sport's evolution and players' performance.

Caring for a loved one with Alzheimer's disease can be a full-time job that leaves you will little time for yourself. Currently in the U.S., there are 5.1 million people with Alzheimer's and that is expected to almost triple to 14 million by mid-century.FOXNews correspondent Jamie Colby attended a recent conference in New York City to learn more about the disease and how to help the caregivers.Part of the annual AFA conference features a simulated dementia experience where caregivers try to perform basic tasks through the eyes, ears, hands and feet of a person suffering from Alzheimer's.Basic tasks like folding clothes, writing a letter and pouring water seem to be quite difficult during the virtual tour.AFA President Carol Steinberg said, "We do this because caregivers really need education and there's just not enough training out there for caregivers. This disease is monumental. Nothing really prepares them for how to deal with it and everything could change on a dime with this disease. So they really need to learn practical skills that can get them through daily challenges."The free educational conference is for family and professional caregivers, and individuals with dementia. Steinberg said, "We feel that many people are not diagnosed either because of fear, denial, lack of information about symptoms, so if you add those people in we are in really dealing with a silver tsunami." Patrick and Katie Kammerer's father has had Alzheimer's for 13 years. They are attending the conference to share their story and learn more.Katie said, "Being a caregiver, it's one of the biggest things and most important thing in our lives right now. Our biggest priority is our dad because with Alzheimer's he needs care all the time. It's tough not having a father but being here; we're going to be telling people about what it's like being a caregiver and how it is 24/7 with our family." Steinberg says she wants to remind caregivers that caring for someone with Alzheimer's disease can impact their own physical and mental health.For more information about Alzheimer's disease and how you can help, call the Alzheimer's Foundation of America at 866-232-8484 or visit their Web site -- http://www.alzfdn.org/.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I used this thank you card for my wedding showers and it was absolutely perfect! The quality was wonderful and I even had a small design change that I was worried wouldn't translate in my comments. When the proof came through it was exactly what I asked for! I can't say enough how great these Thank You cards are!"
"This card looks and feels great and fits perfectly with the save the date and wedding invitation from stunning flourish. We have received many positive reactions to these cards. The designers helped to perfect our photo in the frame, and the result looked stunning!"
"I am very happy with the quality of the card. It is a little difficult to get them in the envelope, but I will take it, as it is because of the heavy card stock the cards are on. I will hand that task off to my husband to do."
"We ordered a few of these to have for early gifts before the wedding. I was pleased with how they came out, and they arrived over a week early (on a Saturday no less)! The only thing I would caution is that the very top of the photo folds over, so keep that in mind when you design the card. Luckily, I left some extra room (2 mm) above my fiance's head. Otherwise, his hair would have been partially chopped off. The proof for this card is flat (not folded over), so you wouldn't notice until you actually ordered the cards. Pretty annoying, but it wasn't an issue for me."
"These were delivered much more quickly than expected! Love the paper quality and the print tones were perfect. Kind of wishing I ordered something a bit bigger though!"

Current for Spring 2014
Crossing Boundaries Core Elements Information Sheet
In 2012, St. Lawrence University was awarded a $700,000 grant from the Mellon Foundation for a five-year project, "Crossing Boundaries: Re-envisioning Humanities for the 21st Century," with the understanding and belief that certain forms of knowledge can no longer be isolated, and that issues we confront today as humans compel us to think across traditional boundaries.
The Crossing Boundaries initiative continues to seek proposals that reshape the structures characterizing our humanities curriculum to create meaningful integration and collaboration. The three pillars of the Crossing Boundaries grant are intertextuality/multi-modal literacy; collaboration; and integrative learning. (For more information on these aspects of the grant, see the attached information sheet.)
Crossing Boundaries can fund small-scale projects of up to $2,000 and a limited number of large-scale grants exceeding $2,000. Both categories of grants can help defray costs associated with digitization; books, materials, software, collaborative project travel (but not student travel), speaker fees, and student researchers or project assistants.
For our Spring 2014 deadline, we strongly encourage:
- Proposals that bring University resources (e.g. special collections and gallery materials) to a classroom context in service of developing a digital component or project
- Proposals with three or more participants representing departments in the sciences, social sciences, and arts and humanities
- Collaborations with outside institutions, especially New York Six schools
- New models of collaboration that engage students as project participants (fellowships, internships, work study)
- Small-scale grants (up to $2,000): May be submitted at any point
- Large-scale grants (more than $2,000): Proposals due Friday, March 28.
For more information, contact Richard Jenseth (firstname.lastname@example.com) or Matt Lavin (email@example.com). We will provide detailed guidelines for submissions, and individual consultations on project ideas.

This was a cheap easy to install solution for my falling MacBook Pro.

Great for my asus g1s. Simple plug and play. I did have a windows 7 disk to reinstall windows which made things very easy. This drive fit in my asus g1s notebook just like the website said it would.
Best Uses
i put the hard drive in my macbook pro.
its a nice looking drive, with good memory.
the hard drive had small irrelevant defects.
took awhile for my computer to get used to it.
Best Uses
I had a 350gb hard drive that got full with pictures, I installed 1TB , easy installation and Im very happy with it
Best Uses
My laptop kept shutting down overnight, and the hard drive was filling up. This hard drive took care of both problems.
Best Uses
Ordered memory and a hard drive. Crucial listed the items I needed making the transaction very easy.
I too am considering this upgrade to SSD. This may seem trivial but try control panel, programs and features, windows features and untick internet explorer then reboot. Upon reboot go and retick the box to reinstall that feature. This has worked for me in the past when ie stopped functioning. Good Luck. Please let us know the results.
Ok I got it to work, but it's intermittent. I pulled the drive out, switched the type of HDD in the BIOS from AHCI to IDE. Then I re-installed the drive. This got me past BIOS. Then I go into BIOS, reset it to AHCI, and the drive works perfectly. I'm using it now to post this.
However here's the weird thing. If I shut down my machine, I have the same problem again, sometimes. Twice today I've shut down the machine and it's come back with no problem, twice it's repeated the same error I had before. That means to fix it, I have to open the laptop, remove the SSD, reset BIOS to IDE, let it boot, reset BIOS again to AHCI, then reinstall the drive and it works.
Any ideas to stabilize this now? How odd.
Hi all!
I apologize ahead of time, as I am not super techy.
About 7-8 months ago I replaced the HD and memory in my early 20078 24" iMac. All was working great, but about 2 months ago or so, it stopped booting up (white screen, folder with question mark.)
I finally got around to trying to fix it again, and got out a boot disk (Snow Leopard, as that is what I happened to have on a disk.) It starts the process of installing the OS, but when it gets to the screen that asks what disk to install the OS on, it never finds a disk. I am guessing there is some issue with the HD? Just trying to see if I can get some directional hints on how to next proceed.
HD: Seagate Barracuda 3TB SATA-600, part # ST3000DM001
Memory - 4GB kit (2GB x 2) 200-pin SODIMM, part # CT2K2G2S800M
I like to play around with my computer in a way that's not exactly easy on hard drives.
Basically, I compile a lot of applications from source code. I know that this is rough on mechanical hard drives from experience, because I go through hard drives once every 2-3 years on systems where I do this.
Also, I tend to reinstall my operating system(s) every few months or so in order to experiment/test various configurations. That's also rough on the hard drive because it involves reformatting/reinstalling stuff.
I'm getting ready to replace the HDD I just wore out in my Linux machine. I like the speed of SSDs (I run them in my Gaming systems without issue), but I don't know if an SSD could hold up to the way I use my "programming" computer.
Basically, I'm wondering if it's a better idea to buy cheap HDDs and run them into the ground to avoid wearing out an SSD within 6 months (which I've heard happens with write-intensive operations), or whether an SSD would survive in that environment for about the same 2-3 years as my hard drives.
Most people have only tested the drives under normal scenarios with Windows and gaming. My situation is a little different, though.
Any advice/experience that might be relevant?

A task force of local and state government agencies charged
10 people with more than 75 counts of defrauding seniors out of more than
The suspects are charged with defrauding victims with an
average age of 85, and face more than 75 counts, including obtaining property
by false pretenses, conspiracy to obtain property by false pretenses and elder
All 10 suspects were served and processed in Alamance,
Edgecombe, Nash, Wake and Wilson counties. The Edgecombe County Sheriff's
Office, Nash County Sheriff's Office and Wilson County Sheriff's Office
assisted the N.C. State Bureau of Investigation, Burlington, Cary and Raleigh
Police with the arrests.
"Criminals and con artists who prey on seniors must be
stopped. They strike fast and move on quickly, hoping to stay one step ahead of
the law," Attorney General Roy Cooper said. "We're teaming up with
other law enforcement and prosecutors so we can piece together these cases and
put home repair fraudsters behind bars where they belong."
Investigators say the suspects initially approached seniors
offering to perform minor work on their homes, such as cleaning out gutters,
for a small fee. They then urged their victims into a series of expensive and
unnecessary home repairs to their roof, plumbing, foundation or electrical
Work performed by the defendants was minimal, substandard or
not completed at all, according to arrest warrants.

Couchbase-elasticsearch sync issue
I've been investigating whether to use couchbase with elasticsearch. There's an excellent blog http://blog.couchbase.com/couchbase-and-full-text-search-couchbase-trans... on how to set this up. I have one issue.
If elasticsearch is down, and you send a document to couchbase, then bring back up elasticsearch, the document won't be indexed by elasticsearch.
I've tried flushing the index to have elasticsearch pick up the document, but flushing doesn't seem to work. In fact, I see that only half the shards flushed successfully.
curl -XPOST http://localhost:9200/beer-sample/_flush
I'm not sure if this is an issue as half my shards seem to be under the name "Unassigned".
My only current solution is to restart Couchbase, but obviously I wouldn't want to do that in production.
Am I missing something?
Hi Amy,
Just saw this post here and wasn't sure if it was before or after our email exchange about this. The XDCR process used to send data to the Couchbase ElasticSearch adapter follows an exponential backoff process when retrying connections to an ElasticSearch cluster that was down. Depending on how long your ES cluster was down, this could cause significant delays before those changes are propagated.
I'm still working to reproduce the scenario you described and get clarification on the parameters of the backoff. I'll update you when I know more.
I realise that what I had done was delete the index, and re-add it again. To get my documents re-indexed I needed to restart couchbase. I'm informed that if you want to delete an index you should first delete the XDCR transfer.

The Distillers were an American punk rock band formed in Los Angeles in 1998. They released their first two albums on Hellcat Records/Epitaph Records before moving to Sire, part of the Warner Music Group. The Distillers were originally formed by Australian-born Brody Armstrong, a woman with a distinctively harsh singing voice. Brody changed her name to "Dalle" after her 2003 divorce from Rancid's Tim Armstrong. Although there were significant line-up changes it was Brody who played guitar, sang, and wrote or co-wrote nearly every song on the band's three albums. Tony Bevilacqua also played guitar and Ryan Sinn played bass. After the break up of the band, Dalle and Bevilacqua formed the band Spinnerette.

By Nandita Bose
MUMBAI (Reuters) - It took months of arm-twisting and assurances from New Delhi to persuade British retailer Tesco Plc
Earlier this year, world No.1, Wal-Mart Stores Inc
But on Tuesday, Tesco announced that it had applied to buy a 50 percent stake in Tata Group's Trent Hypermarket Ltd
The decision marked a victory for the ruling Congress party in securing its first foreign investment victory after staking its political survival on reforming the supermarket sector.
"We were under phenomenal pressure from the Indian government to apply and frankly phenomenal pressure is an understatement," said a senior Tesco official, who spoke on condition of anonymity. "The pressure was intense on a government-to-government level."
A Tesco spokesperson did not comment on the reasons behind the company's decision to enter India now.
"We've always said we'd like to get more involved in this exciting market and having learnt a great deal through our agreement with Tata, we have taken the decision to make an application to develop a multi-brand retail business in India."
Tesco is in the middle of a big investment drive to reinvigorate its sales in the UK and despite closing loss-making businesses in Japan and the United States, its move to enter India shows the retailer's continued ambitions to expand abroad.
Tesco, the world's third-largest retailer, and Wal-Mart lobbied the Indian government for years to allow global brands into the country.
The door finally opened at the end of 2012 when the government, desperate to attract foreign investment as economic growth fell to its slowest pace in a decade, overrode stiff opposition from coalition allies and opposition parties.
But the government's plans were dealt a heavy blow in October when Wal-Mart called off its Indian wholesale joint venture and postponed its entry plans, blaming unfriendly regulations and political uncertainty.
Sources at Tesco and Trent said they took a calculated risk by making their application before the elections, but it was a cautious one, deciding to invest only $100 million for now.
"Instead of waiting for another year we said 'let's go for it now'," said an official at Trent, who cannot be named as he is not authorized to speak to the media.
"We have been made to understand...that an approved investment plan will not be reversed as it will send a very wrong message to the international investor community."
Company sources said there had been numerous meetings with the government throughout the year, and talks intensified in recent weeks.
Two government sources said trade minister Anand Sharma met Tesco chairman Richard Broadbent at the Davos World Economic Forum in January and assured him there of "hand-holding" by the government if the company invested in India.
Sharma also had several meetings with Tesco chief executive Philip Clarke, who sought dilutions to the entry requirements.
Along with Wal-Mart and Carrefour
But the small scale of Trent's hypermarket business will help Tesco adhere to the regulations for now, sources said.
"We have decided to tweak our current business model to comply with this," said the Tesco official. "Make no mistake, it's going to be tough and the challenge will keep increasing as we grow, and so, as you see, our immediate growth plans for India are not very aggressive."
Since 2008, Tesco has had a franchise agreement with Trent Hypermarkets, which runs the Star Bazaar chain of stores and provides sourcing and technical help to its partner.
Star Bazaar runs 16 stores in the country and if Tesco's investment is approved, they will open only 3-4 stores a year under the partnership, a very slow expansion plan designed to meet the sourcing regulations, find a model that works and fix the loss-making hypermarket chain, retail consultants said.
"It's a showpiece investment which will only make the government happy because now they can say 'look, someone's come'," said Harminder Sahani, managing director of Wazir Advisors. "It is too small to make any significant difference to the country or the retail sector."
Tesco's investment in India is widely expected to be cleared without much political opposition, thanks to its decision to keep a low profile before, consultants said.
Wal-Mart, by contrast, had blazed the Indian retail trail, earning the ire of political parties and trade unions. An investigation into whether it broke India's foreign investment rules and an internal bribery probe also delayed its plans.
"Wal-Mart decided to be aggressive, but Tesco decided to be discreet and its worked well for them," said Devangshu Dutta who heads retail consultancy Third Eyesight. "But whether they will be able to make use of the first-mover advantage and eventually lead the race remains to be seen."

The Weber State University Center For Community Engaged Learning received the pilot program grant in late 2011 and began relaying the trainings they received to their partners in 2012. All volunteer managers who participate in at least four of the five sessions receive their certification from the Utah Commission on Service and Volunteerism. We highly recommend that you implement principles from these modules in your own volunteer programs. Volunteers will have a better experience, thus leading to higher retention rates and better overall satisfaction. Volunteer managers, while having to put in additional work initially, will reap the benefits of a volunteer program that is increasingly self-sustaining.
Additionally, organizations wishing to partner at the Wildcat or Purple Pride levels must have a Certified Volunteer Manager in their volunteer program. The sessions run February through June annually.

BSN - Lean Dessert Protein Shake Chocolate-Coconut Candy Bar - 1.39 lbs. (630 g)
BSN Lean Dessert Protein Shake Chocolate-Coconut Candy Bar is ideal for supporting weight management programs and calorie-restricted/low-carb diets, producing thick, delicious shakes that may help to satisfy your hunger. Not only may this dessert-like shake keep hunger at bay, BSN Lean Dessert Protein Shake Chocolate-Coconut Candy Bar will feed lean muscles with crucial amino acids and essential proteins. To aid in this process, BSN Lean Dessert Protein Shake Chocolate-Coconut Candy Bar has MCTs for quick, usable fuel, great for keeping energy high on a low-carbohydrate diet.
BSN Lean Dessert Protein Shake Chocolate-Coconut Candy Bar Benefits:
Key Ingredients Support:
Most protein shakes leaving me starving within 30-40 minutes, and I find myself eating more than I should. Will Lean Dessert Protein do the same?Unlike most proteins you may have likely sampled in the past, Lean Dessert Protein is not made up of one single source of protein (i.e. just whey or just egg). Rather, Lean Dessert Protein is an ultra-premium blend of 6 of the highest quality and most nutritionally complete proteins available, all with varying amino acid profiles and digestive rates. Since these individual proteins digest and reabsorb in the body at different rates, you are feeding your body for up to 7 hours after each shake. This should definitely help to subside hunger. In addition to the sustained-release blend, Lean Dessert Protein mixes up instantly to produce a thick, rich shake, as opposed to a thin "watery" shake that is sometimes the case with other protein powders. This will also keep you feeling fuller, without causing any digestive discomfort or bloating.
I know I need to eat 5 to 6 small meals per day and consume additional protein to help me get leaner, but the truth is that I cannot stand the taste of protein. Please tell me Lean Dessert Protein tastes good!At BSN, we pride ourselves on not only producing products that are the most effective and complete in the industry, but also the best tasting. In regards to Lean Dessert Protein each of the six flavors truly tastes like a delicious dessert, hence the name Lean Dessert Protein! Take Chocolate Fudge Pudding for example. This flavor was developed using BSN's Exclusive Advanced Flavor Technology and the final flavoring system was selected only after countless variations and test batches were sampled. Add to this that fact that the proprietary flavoring system found in Chocolate Fudge Pudding Lean Dessert Protein contains authentic Dutch processed Cocoa and you have the recipe for an out of this world tasting shake! And if you get tired of shakes, don't worry because we have you covered. Use a little lest water when you mix up Lean Dessert Protein and you can actually create a pudding-like consistency from it for a delicious treat. Talk about versatile!
Why does Lean Dessert Protein come in such small containers? I was use to the larger containers.When it comes to eating clean and dieting, variety when it comes to flavors for your palate becomes an issue. You see, eating the same foods over and over again, along with having the same shake flavors can become boring and monotonous. That's where the 6 delicious flavors of Lean Dessert Protein come into play. Owing to the variety of flavors Lean Dessert Protein is available in, we decided to reduce the size of the container, as means to give individuals a chance for more variety. Now, you don't have to complete one large container before sampling another. You can keep several on-hand and mix and match. In addition to variety, the container was made smaller for portability. By making the container of Lean Dessert Protein smaller, it makes it that much easier for someone to carry it with them.
I'm not looking to lose weight. I'm actually trying to put on some lean muscle mass. Is Lean Dessert Protein good for me to use still? Lean Dessert Protein is a very versatile protein; perfect for both those looking to maintain or lose weight, as well as providing a high protein/low calorie meal replacement for individuals who seek to gain fat free, lean muscle mass. If your goal is to put on lean muscle and minimize fat gain, Lean Dessert Protein is perfect to work into your diet. Depending on when you train, you can actually incorporate all 3 of our protein supplements. For post workout recovery and nutrient replenishment, use TrueMass. To bridge the gap between solid food meals throughout the day and to keep protein intake up, use Syntha-6. Towards the end of your day, or before you go to sleep, Lean Dessert Protein is the best choice. You still get the same time-release blend of ultra-premium proteins, all with a low calorie, carbohydrate and fat count, which is perfect for the end of the day, as your metabolic rate slows; helping you to achieve the fat-free, lean muscle mass gains you are after.

Athlete BioAmanda Latona is a recording artist-turned-IFBB Bikini Pro and fitness model. Amanda landed her first record deal at the age of 18 in an all-girl group that performed and toured throughout Europe and the United States. Along with that record deal came a gym membership, and the day she set foot in a gym, she was hooked. Soon Amanda decided to take her love of being onstage and fuse it with her other passion, fitness, and compete. Amanda entered her first show in 2003 and won.
In 2007, after a move to Las Vegas, Amanda won two regional titles as well as 1st place in the Model America Championships, and a top-10 placing at the first-ever FLEX Bikini Model Search. The following year, Amanda went on to win the Model America Championships for the second year in a row and a 4th-place finish in the FLEX Bikini Model Search, which opened the door to a six-page spread and article in Muscle & Fitness magazine.
In 2009, Amanda decided to try her hand as a competitor in the newly-created NPC Bikini Division. Winning every show she entered in 2009, Amanda won her IFBB pro card at the USAs in July. She then went on to enter the FLEX Bikini Model Search for the third time at the Olympia, this time beating out nearly 100 competitors for the title and landing a coveted contract with Weider Publications. Her pro debut came in March 2010 at the IFBB MuscleContest Pro Bikini Championship in Culver City, CA, where she earned third place and thus qualified for the inaugural Bikini Olympia in September. She followed up the strong debut with her first win as a pro at the 2010 Europa SuperShow in Dallas, TX.
Amanda currently resides in Las Vegas and works full-time as a fitness model, print/commercial model and TV host. Of her relationship with BSN, Amanda has this to say: "I have been using BSN's products for years. It was the company I dreamed of being signed to. I don't think I've ever had a workout without using N.O.-Xplode, seriously. I feel privileged to represent such a prestigious company that I truly believe in."

This week on our show Good Day Chicago, the team shared a story about a mom who got into an argument with someone over breastfeeding in public.
Sun-Times Splash Editor Susanna Negovan started a firestorm on our Facebook page by saying this on-air: "I mean, yes, it's not illegal to pick your nose in public, but I don't wanna watch you do it. I think people should exercise discretion when they are in a public space and they should be conscious of the fact that there may be people around them that might not want to see that and I think it's simple enough to cover up."
For the record, this part of Good Day Chicago is called the "Chat Room" -- a time when people are encouraged to share their own opinions.
FOX 32 anchor Dawn Hasbrouck shared a different perspective.
"I breastfeed both of my children for a year each and I remember being in a restaurant thinking he's really hungry I really need to do this and I had the cover up, but then it started to fall off and get worried, so I went to the bathroom and there was no chair and no place to breastfeed," she explained. "I had to sit on the bathroom floor to breastfeed my child. So, I know how difficult it is to do it in public and there was another mother in the bathroom who saw me and she said 'don't worry, it gets better.'"
On Friday, Negovan was back on our air, trying to clarify.
"I think the point that I was trying to make, it's not about breastfeeding because we can all acknowledge that's best for the children," Susanna said. "And that if you can breastfeed that's what you should be able to do and breastfeeding in public is perfectly fine. I think the question is of exposure and what is the right amount of exposure in public?"
A blogger from California heard what Negovan said and started plans for a protest outside our studios.
She noted that breastfeeding rates in Illinois are not that good--25 percent of new moms here don't even try. She says that things like the "nose picking" comment make things worse.
"I just think that when people compare breastfeeding to picking your nose or defecating or urinating, they're not seeing it for what it is," Paala Anderson Secor told FOX 32 News in an interview. "Hearing negative comments about breastfeeding before you start breastfeeding gives the new mother the completely wrong impression about what it is to care for your child."
"Breastfeeding should be seen," she adds. "You shouldn't feel embarrassed to breastfeed. In no way is breastfeeding your child and meeting their needs something to be embarrassed about."
Illinois law says that mothers are allowed to breastfeed their babies anywhere.

When I first heard the thunder sound clip, I noticed that it wasn't particularly violent, like it was a little bit smaller than life. I thought it would be interesting to show nature, an all-encompassing concept, being encapsulated and brought down to size. At first I toyed with the idea of showing a thunderstorm and then elevating above it to show a mischievous deity playing with the elements. While experimenting, I tried setting the world inside a crystal ball, and I suddenly remembered the phenomenon in which the image inside the ball is flipped. I decided to build on that idea from there.
I wanted to reveal the "nature of nature" slowly, first showing the thunderstorm, and then zooming out to show that it is inside the crystal ball. As the ball then descends, we notice that the trees in the background are actually upside down, and the ball is actually ascending… then nature rights itself again, but the thunderstorm in the ball remains flipped—rightly so. So which is the correct reality? The answer is left ambiguously: first the outer world fades away, and the thunderstorm inside the ball overtakes the scene, soon that too fades away.

Hard times, Moon Pies and never giving up
My mom's family has known hardship, but you never heard these Tennessee women complain.
Of course, that's what they said when her older sister, my Aunt Elna, was diagnosed with advanced colon cancer in her 70s. She went through chemo and lived for a few more good years before developing Alzheimer's disease.
Both of these women were older sisters to my mother. All three of them taught me a lot about frugality, and about life. A few important lessons:
Grow your food. One of my earliest memories is toddling through the enormous vegetable garden tended by Elna and Dot with help from a third sister, Bea, who has a developmental disability and has always lived at home. A lot of this food was canned or frozen because the family often worked seasonally in fields and factories -- what you grew in the summer was what you ate in the winter. I can't garden where I currently live, but I glean fruit and preserve it in jars, as jams and in the freezer. When I think of a home of my own, I envision a southern exposure and an edible landscape.
Enough is as good as a feast. I remember having lunch as a young adult in Elna's half of the duplex that the aunts shared. On the menu that day were pinto beans and fried potatoes. It was what they could afford. It was enough.
Their meals weren't always healthy, because a garden can stretch only so far. My mom recalled a lot of biscuits and white gravy, and Dot, who had a Southern girl's sweet tooth, would have a Moon Pie and a Dr Pepper for lunch if she could get away with it. (She always made sure that we kids got Moon Pies, too -- and my mom always made sure that such things were desserts, not main courses.)
As an adult, I am not a picky eater. If my meals are nourishing, they don't have to be elaborate. A corollary: As long as my clothes cover me decently, I don't lose a lot of sleep over whether they bear the right designer labels.
Times harder than we could imagine
Family, first and always. My parents had four kids in five years and no cash to spare. Dot, who had just one child, would step in to buy us cardigans or Easter clothes, or take us to the county fair for one ride each on the carousel and a snow cone afterward. Another early memory is being held in her arms to watch the Christmas parade in Bridgeton, N.J., and hearing her say, "Look! There's Sainty Claus!"
When we were little, Dot would keep us for part of the day every Saturday, which is probably the only time my mom ever had to herself. And when another sister hooked up with a man who refused to accept her two toddlers, it was Dot who went and picked up the babies, bought them something to wear and filed the custody paperwork.
One child wound up being raised by his paternal grandfather and the other by my Aunt Elna, who was also bringing up my mom and two other sisters after their mother died. Since Dot lived next door, she was always there to help. Following their lead, I have always tried to assist people who need it, either with physical help or cash.
Work is a fact of life. Sometimes the work is hard. Dot reminisced about "washing (dirty) diapers when I was so little they had to put the washtub on the floor." (At one point, the family had five kids and grandkids in diapers at the same time.) As a girl she worked on farms during the Depression, earning 2 cents a bushel to pull and top carrots.
Two cents a bushel. A bushel of carrots weighs at least 50 pounds. Those were some hard damn times.
Dot and her siblings had to walk several miles just to get to these jobs, and the workdays could be 12 hours long. After walking home, they'd have to carry water if the cistern and rain barrels were dry. The stream from which they drew water was 2 miles from their family's Tennessee cabin.
- Bing: Pinto bean recipes
The difficult years in my own life seem tame by comparison, but I have never been afraid to work. Or to get my hands dirty; as a single mom I did all our laundry by hand for 16 months, including my daughter's diapers.
Deal with what life sends your way. Never give up. As evidenced by the above, my extended family's story could make Job seem like a big ol' whiner. They have lived with poverty, a lack of education (one uncle died unable to read), illegitimacy, unemployment, multiple divorces, alcoholism, physical abuse, numerous health problems (and no health insurance -- people in my family tend to die of heart attacks or colon or stomach cancer).
To outsiders it might sound like one big country-western song. They might be tempted to write us off as ignorant rednecks. But my mom's sisters are good people. They are kind people. They are always there for those in need, they share such as they have, and they treasure photos of grandkids, nieces, nephews, and cousins upon cousins upon cousins. I don't have a clear idea how many of us there are.
I want to hear that voice again
The hard times teach us how to savor the good times. They also teach us how to hold on until those good times materialize. My upbringing is the reason that I have been able to get by on very little money.
For the past few years I've been sending Dot a check every time I get paid. Whenever I visit she always frets a little: "Now, don't you send that if it means you run short." I tell her that I'm doing fine. "Well, I sure do thank you, then," she'll reply. She uses the money for expenses not covered by Medicare.
As I write this I can hear "How's our girl?" as clearly as if Dot were in the room with me. It's a Tennessee-twangy voice, raspy from years of smoking (she finally quit, too late), and it conveys so much warmth that I want to cry. I wish I could sit in her living room and hear that voice again. I'm praying that I will.
If I don't? I'll go forward with what the women in my life have taught me, and honor their memories by trying to be as kind and giving as they were. And I won't ever worry about running short because I know how to cook pinto beans, with or without fried potatoes.
